Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu and the others walked towards the center of Netherworld Valley. There was a bottomless hole, which seemed to have been struck by a meteor from the sky.

When Qi Xuansu stared down at the large cave, he suddenly entered the state of Lingshan Cave Heaven. In a trance, he saw a very tall and dark mountain, like a landscape in a splash-ink painting coming before his eyes.

Qi Xuansu couldn't be more familiar with it, it was Lingshan.

Then Qi Xuansu saw the top of the mountain again. At first glance, it seemed that it was not much different from the previous dream. It was still a huge open space, and there was still a big fire. There were still ten extremely tall figures standing around the fire. , the firelight illuminated their shadows.

It was the Ten Witches of Lingshan that Qi Xuansu had seen countless times.

Just like in countless dreams in the past, Wu Yang kicked over the fire of the great witches again and laughed with his hands on his hips.

The great witches frowned, displeased, and scolded.

There are also some great witches who are silent, with a hint of cunning.

After a while, Wu Yang probably felt a little bored, stopped laughing, and stepped aside.

Then the great witches rekindled the fire, illuminating the surrounding area with extraordinary brightness.

The fire became brighter and brighter, making the surroundings appear darker. The other great witches hid in the darkness outside the firelight and began to whisper.

Qi Xuansu had heard it countless times and was not curious at all, and even found it boring.

Sure enough, the whispering voice gradually became louder, as if it had traveled through the long and distant river of time and arrived in the present world.

However, unlike the dreams in the past, Qi Xuansu, who now has the inheritance of the great witches, is different from what he used to be. He can clearly feel the different auras exuding from the great witches.

Frost, fire, flood, earth, death, light, darkness, illusion, shadow, vegetation, time, space.

They respectively symbolize the magical powers of the great witches.

At this moment, a tall figure took a step forward. She was the leader of the ten great witches. She had long white hair and was wearing a night sky robe that seemed to be studded with stars. She waved her arms, and the other nine great witches stepped back.

It was Wu Xian.

Only Wu Xian and Wu Yang were left standing still.

The two of them, one tall and one short, looked at Qi Xuansu at the same time.

Qi Xuansu even had the illusion that the eyes of the two great wizards traveled through time, transcended the boundary between reality and reality, and fell on him.

After a while, Wu Yang retreated and left the place with the other five great witches, leaving only Wu Xian still there.

Behind the tall figure, there are four great witches. They are equally tall, but silent, but there is a strange light in their eyes.

Qi Xuansu probably understood what happened.

The six great witches who left were the six enlightened witches.

After the six enlightened witches left, only five great witches remained, including Wu Luo.

At this moment, the originally dazzling fire suddenly disappeared, the fire was extinguished, and there was darkness between heaven and earth.

Then a muffled groan sounded.

The fire light came back on, dispelling the darkness.

The four great witches headed by Wu Luo took action at the same time and stabbed Wu Xian, who had his back to them, with four strange bone staffs.

That muffled groan came from Wu Xian.

Wu Xian didn't look back, as if he wasn't surprised. The pain on his face flashed away, and he slowly closed his eyes as if he was relieved.

The four great witches did not continue to attack, but released the bone staff that had penetrated Wu Xian's body, and slowly retreated, leaving the bone staff to stay on Wu Xian's body, like four ferocious bone spurs.

The four great witches were slightly scattered and silent, as if four elongated shadows were standing behind Wu Xian.

Wu Xian murmured, as if praying.

The next moment, the ground beneath Wu Xian's feet shattered, and a hole appeared. The leader of the witch cult fell down uncontrollably.

The four great witches, Wu Ji, Wu Gu, Wu Zhen, and Wu Luo, slowly stepped forward and stood around the edge of the hollow. They each held a jar in their hands and raised it high above their heads. The mouth of the jar was tilted, and a stream of water flowed from it. The river of blood, seemingly endless, completely submerged the fallen Wu Xian.

As far as the eye can see, there is only a bright red, like the sea.

In an instant, Qi Xuansu woke up with a start.

There was no Black Shen Lingshan and no Lingshan Ten Witches. He was still standing on the edge of the bottomless hole in the Netherworld Valley. Everything just now seemed to be just a dream.

It seems that Qi Xuansu will always have similar experiences in places related to Yao Zu.

However, it was different from Lingshan Cave Heaven. Qi Xuansu clearly felt that after experiencing the dream just now, especially after feeling the breath of the great wizards in the dream, his digestion of "Xuan Jade" seemed to have accelerated.

He Luoshen seemed to be aware of it and asked: "What's wrong?"

Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment and said, "I saw Wuxian in the past. This is indeed Wuxian's mausoleum."

He Luo Shen did not ask further, but just set up the "Taixu Golden Bridge" and took the three people to the bottom of the cave.

Mausoleums are generally divided into above-ground parts and underground parts. Such as sacrificial halls, shrines, archways, statues, etc. are all above ground, while the underground palace is underground. The same is true for Wu Xian's mausoleum. The Netherworld Valley belongs to the above-ground part, and below is the underground palace, which is also where Guangming will sink.

The three of them walked through the Golden Bridge and arrived at the underground palace of Wu Xian's mausoleum. It was really dark and there was no light at all.

However, Wu Xian's underground palace is different from the mausoleum palace in the ordinary sense. It is more like an underground city. The dome is as high as the night sky, and it is even decorated with things like stars. In this way, although the place is dark, it is not invisible. The five fingers are still a little bright.

Below the "night curtain" is a city. Judging from the architectural style, it is mainly in the style after the Great Wei Dynasty. From this, it can be inferred that this city is no longer in its original appearance. I don't know whether it has been transformed by the Bright Church, or by Yao Zu, or both.

Qi Xuansu looked around and asked directly: "Where is Wu Xian?"

First, determine the location of the biggest threat here, so as not to be caught off guard.

Zhang Wuhen pointed his finger: "There."

Qi Xuansu looked in the direction of Zhang Wuhen's finger. There was a dark hall in the center of the city, full of wild style. Qi Xuansu had seen such buildings before. The Wu Cult Hall on the Lingshan Mountain in the dream and the Yao Zu Palace in the Lingshan Cave Heaven were all similar.

This hall was probably renovated by Yao Zu twice.

Zhang Wuhen said: "That is Wu Xian's tomb, and it is also the entrance to the Bright Heaven. It has been closed and never opened, so I guess Wu Xian is still sleeping."

Qi Xuansu looked at the black hall from a distance, and was in a trance again.

Qi Xuansu saw a man walking in the darkness, unable to tell east from west, south from north, and only a bright red halo in the distance, so he walked towards the direction of the halo.

Gradually, the halo got closer and closer, and it turned out to be a huge blood pool.

The blood pool was the size of a lake, filled with blood, and the blood mist was like red gauze.

The man walked into the blood pool step by step. Although the blood pool was only waist-deep, the blood was extremely viscous and it was very difficult to walk.

At this time, the blood mist above the blood pool began to dissipate, as if the gauze was lifted up, revealing the true face behind it.

Behind the blood mist, there was a bright red altar.

The altar was like a small boat, floating on the blood pool, also emitting a strange red light. On the altar stood a woman with her eyes closed, her hair white, like silver and snow, and her skin pale, as if she was carved out of white jade.

The woman was wearing a black robe, made of unknown material, like the deep night sky, dotted with countless tiny gems, like stars.

When you get closer, you will find that the woman is at least eight feet tall, and she can no longer be described as tall. The man looks very short in front of her.

The man looked up at the woman and said in a deep voice: "Meet the great wizard."

The woman slowly opened her eyes, with no pupils in her eyes, only the whites of her eyes: "What do you want? What are you going to pay?"

The man said: "I want the great wizard's supreme magical power, and I am willing to help the great wizard out of trouble."

Qi Xuansu suddenly came back to his senses.

If he guessed correctly, this should be the scene when Zhang Luxu first met Wu Xian. At that time, Wu Xian had not yet separated from the future Yao Zu, and the two were one and the same.

This also confirms Zhang Wuhen's statement that Wu Xian was sleeping there. He used to sleep in the tomb, and later slept in the bright sky.

At the same time, Qi Xuansu once again felt that the digestion progress of "Xuan Yu" had taken another small step forward.

I can take a step forward in the dream state.

Is it really that effective?

It is even more effective than the sacred mountain cave heaven.

It is just the right medicine for the right disease.

Whatever I think of, it will come true. Is this also part of Yao Zu's calculation?
