The Path Toward Heaven

Following Zenzi's voice, the atmosphere in the hall kept changing.

People were shocked and felt so ridiculous.

The battle was so big at the first moment, each faction and the imperial court passed letters one after another, as if the underworld was about to invade, Bu Qiuxiao rose up against the crime, and the next moment the big man from the underworld died just like that.

The little black wild cat felt something was wrong, meowed a little scared, and ran away again.

People suddenly thought of a question, what Zenzi said was that the twelve priests were in Lengshan, and was killed by fellow Taoist Qingshan, but Qingshan was far away in the south of the sky, tens of thousands of miles away from Lengshan... This matter is obviously a bit strange, but many people still can't understand it, and even if they think about it, it is inconvenient to say it.

The autumn light and shadow fell on the outside of the hall, the bell had stopped, and Bai Zao's voice rang again.

Why is Fellow Daoist Qingshan there?

The sky is so big that no two birds will collide unless the goshawks are already ready to strike.

Jing Jiu didn't answer this question, it was Gu Qing who answered.

He said calmly: Because this is what we should do.

This answer is very in line with Qingshan's status as the head of the sect, and the style of the leader of the righteous way, of course, it means that it is a tasteless official language.

Like Zhao Layue, Gu Qing already guessed Jing Jiu's arrangement, although he did not see Tong Yan enter the underworld from Tongtianjing.

The reason why the Zhongzhou faction asked the Qingshan sect to back down is very open and aboveboard, that is, there are no monsters from the underworld in the current Chaotian Continent. Isn't there now?

Jing Jiu stood up, ready to leave.

Bai Zao looked at him and asked, Is this just the beginning?

Jing Jiu said, Yes.

Bai Zao said: Then everyone will wait a few more days at Guocheng Temple?

Jing Jiu nodded calmly and walked out of the hall.

Zhuo Rusui followed with his arms folded, his eyelids were still drooping, but his head was raised quite high, with a very clear posture of looking at people through his nostrils.

Lu Qing hugged Universe Feng and followed behind, the layers of thick cloth exuded no longer a sense of coldness, but a faint killing intent.

Zhao Layue walked at the end with Ah Da in her arms. The white cat squinted slightly and looked at the people opposite, with contempt and mockery in her gaze.

A few people from Qingshan left, and the meeting could only end without a problem.

Some people were nervously discussing the movement of the underworld, some people came to see Chanzi and wanted to ask for a letter, and some people were whispering to Bu Qiuxiao.

But no matter who it is, in fact, it is Bai Zhenren who pays the most attention at this time.

The cloud and mist that seemed to be real made it impossible for people to see Bai Zhenren's face and expression, and naturally it was impossible to judge her thoughts and mood.

People only know that she didn't say a word today except to tell the Kunlun faction to give up pursuing the murder case.

Zhen Tao also noticed the strangeness of this matter, and listened to the discussions around her, and said worriedly: This is too coincidental, everyone can see the problem.

Que Niang smiled and said nothing, thinking that Mr. must have already calculated everything before coming to Guocheng Temple, how can anyone count against him who is unparalleled in chess?

Sese glanced at her, originally wanted to pull Zhen Tao away, but thought of the recent rumor in the practice world, and asked curiously: I heard that you have already worshiped him as a teacher?

Que Niang smiled and said, Yes.

Thurse suddenly felt that she was more pleasing to the eye, and her demeanor became closer, and asked her and Zhen Tao: Do you know the twelve priests?

Que Niang and Zhen Tao shook their heads.

My mother said that he was a very powerful character, extremely ambitious and murderous. He had many supporters in the underworld, but he had never been to the ground.

Sese raised her eyebrows, and said proudly: Such a character came to the surface, but he died without even a storm. Of course, the Qingshan Sect had already prepared for it.

Zhen Tao worriedly asked: Then how should the Qingshan sect explain this matter?

Sese said: Killing the twelve priests, this is a great contribution to the human race, what is there to explain?

...

...

It is said that it is golden autumn, but the autumn in Lengshan is white, because the frost grass that has turned white and the snow that fell in advance. The biting cold wind travels through the fields, harvesting all the greenery and freezing all the clearness. Only at the cracks in the ground will it be softened by the warm wind brought by the magma, but it cannot change the main tone of white.

In this white world, the red is so conspicuous that it can be seen even from a high altitude.

It was a small man lying on the desolate field, wearing a red robe.

This is the common dress of the priests of the underworld, which is clearly different from the five colors of the royal family.

With his body as the center, there are countless deep cracks extending towards the surrounding mountains and fields, with no end in sight.

Magma spewed out from the cracks in the distance, most of the nearby cliffs collapsed, and the smoke and dust had already fallen, covering the ground evenly, indicating that an extremely fierce and high-level battle took place here earlier.

There was an extremely strange and powerful aura in the short man's body, and it was gradually drifting towards the sky and the earth along the cracks.

He is the twelve priests of the underworld.

He opened his eyes, looking at the gray sky, the splendor in his eyes gradually turned gray, and the vitality also disappeared, leaving only bewildered emotions.

Until this moment, he still couldn't figure out what happened.

This time he ventured out of the underworld and came to the surface of Chaotian Continent through a secret passage, just to find the Seal of the Underworld Emperor.

According to the Zhongzhou faction, both the high priest and the underworld master were deceived by Jing Jiu, and the underworld emperor's seal was not in Qingshan at all.

He wants to find a fire carp in the fire veins at the bottom of Lengshan. It is said that there is a fragment of a blazing sun streamer in that fire carp.

Then he will look for a human cultivator named Su Ziye, through whom he will find traces of Daoist Taiping, and finally get the Seal of the Underworld Emperor.

These clues are very clear, and there seems to be no problem, but...why did I encounter an ambush by a strong human race just after I left the underworld?

The twelve priests looked at the sky, and suddenly felt that in the burning fireball, there seemed to be an invisible river of Styx, which was slowly falling. Is that a sign of death?

I have practiced hard for a hundred years and practiced in the Styx River for 30,000 days and nights, so I am going to return to the Styx River like this? He is really not reconciled, because he still has a lot of things to do. He wants to become the high priest, and even become the new emperor of the underworld. He even thinks about leading the army of the underworld to come to Chaotian Continent again, to regain the glory of his ancestors...

Ah, is that the legendary sunshine?

He narrowed his eyes with some difficulty, thinking that the sun is not as beautiful as in the legend, and the light is too glaring, so it is not as comfortable as Tianhuo.

At the last moment of his life, he suddenly felt extremely short-lived remorse, thinking to himself why should he and his clansmen risk their lives for such a dazzling fireball? After thinking about this question, he cut off his breath and closed his eyes. The soul fire dissipated into countless light spots, and was burned into blue smoke by a sword fire falling from the sky, and he could no longer find any traces.

Among the new generation of powerhouses in the underworld, the twelve priests are undoubtedly the biggest threat to the human race.

He is ambitious, determined, long-term, ruthless, and most importantly, has a lot of room for growth.

This is the first time he has come to the ground of Chaotian Continent.

And for the last time.

In fact, the situation he encountered was not an ambush, because it was only one person who made the move.

On a barren hill more than ten miles away, stood a Taoist in Tsing Yi.

The appearance of the Taoist in Tsing Yi is very ordinary, which does not match the deep and sublime realm.

After confirming that the twelve priests were dead and their soul fires were completely extinguished, Taoist Tsing Yi stretched out his hand and recalled Fei Jian.

The sky suddenly became gray, and the sun was no longer so dazzling.

The flying sword was so bright that it seemed to take away several minutes of sunlight.

The cold wind picked up slightly, and the leader of the wind knife broke through the air and landed on the top of the peak.

He bowed his hands to the Taoist in Tsing Yi, and asked a little uncertainly, But Daoist Guangyuan?

Master Guangyuan is the master of Shiyue Peak in Qingshan. He has always acted in a low-key manner. Now that Fang Jingtian is in closed-door training, in terms of strength, he is the second most important person in Qingshan.

The leader of Fengdao has never met Daoist Guangyuan, so he guessed the identity of the other party entirely by relying on the extremely bright flying sword.

Dare to win glory with Lieyang, of course, he can only use Yuefeng's Huisun Sword.

Daoist Guangyuan replied, as dull as usual, with no fluctuations in his voice: I heard that a monster from the underworld sneaked here, so I rushed over to kill him.

The leader of Fengdao was a little annoyed, thinking that this is Lengshan, and Qingshan is far away in the south of the sky, even the fastest Furth sword would take more than a day to come here. Knowing that there is a monster from the underworld, so he came over and killed him with a sword? how do you kill Everyone knows that you must have been hiding here all along. The question is, can you Qingshan Sect be a little more serious and find a reason?

He noticed that Daoist Guangyuan's blue Taoist robe was a bit damaged, and his sword intent was a little messed up, so he realized that the opponent must have suffered serious injuries. Looking at the red in the wasteland, his expression changed slightly, thinking that this monster from the underworld dared to appear in his real body. It's really audacious. Could it be a disciple of the underworld master?

The Twelve Priests of the Underworld.

Master Guangyuan paused for a while, and added: It seems so.

This was obviously a slip of the tongue.

The leader of the wind knife didn't want to be entangled in this, and rushed towards the field.

After a while, he and Master Guangyuan came to the corpses of the twelve priests. Looking at the cracks between the fields and the cliffs, and feeling the eerie aura that has not been completely eliminated, the leader of Fengdao once again confirmed that the twelve priests of the Underworld are very powerful. If he is alone, it should be difficult to keep him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help admiring the real Guangyuan's strength, and at the same time felt incomprehensible about Qingshan's self-confidence. Facing such a powerful monster from the underworld, there was only one person from the Qingshan sect?

Just as he was thinking about this matter, he suddenly heard the cry of an eagle from a distant mountain... No, it seemed that someone was singing.

Master Guangyuan's dull expression finally changed, and he said with some difficulty in his sentence: Junior Sister...is drinking.

The leader of Fengdao looked at the mountain dozens of miles away, and thought that the leader of Nanwang Peak had also come.

Then he saw an isolated blizzard farther away, and realized that Qingshan was so fully prepared.

...

...

(When I was driving past Shenyang, I saw Qipanshan, so the Meihui chess game in the avenue of Chaotian was held on this mountain. Jing Jiu and Tong Yan had a shocking game, and Que Niang still remembers it to this day. Today Qipanshan is on fire. Watching the video is really scary. I hope everything is ok.)
