The two looked at each other, getting closer to each other, the moonlight outside the window was bright, and the room was filled with a faint fragrance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

......

When he woke up the next day, the smoke was gone, Xiao Chen returned to the original world, outside the house, there was a knock on the door, and outside the window, the sky was already bright.

After getting dressed, Xiao Chen walked to the door and opened the door, seeing that it was the seventh day of the first month, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"My subordinates found out last night that Baili Xiaohualuo had already gone to the Hidden Dragon Abyss overnight, does the Lord need to leave immediately?"

Xiao Chen's expression froze, and he rushed to the Hidden Dragon Abyss overnight? ”

"What's wrong?" Chu Qi seemed a little puzzled.

Xiao Chen closed the door and stared out the window: "Do you remember those seven women? ”

Hearing this, Chu Qi was obviously slightly surprised: "How did the Lord know?"

"Anyway, I just know. Xiao Chen was still staring out the window, his eyes were a little cold, and after returning to the original world, it seemed that he had changed back to his original self.

He can be sure that this is no coincidence, those seven women must be Baili Xiaohualuo's subordinates, and I am afraid that even the Cloud Mist Courtyard does not know about this matter.

"Okay, the seventh day of the first month, go and call Brother Yang and them, and immediately set off for the Hidden Dragon Abyss. ”

"Yes. ”

At the moment, a few people did not delay any longer, and after settling the house money, they went out of the city to the west for a hundred miles, which is where the Hidden Dragon Abyss is located, whether it is for the local cultivators, or for the cultivators of the entire suffering realm, it has always been shrouded in a veil of mystery, for thousands of years, countless people have been there, but in the end, no one can say clearly, what kind of place it is.

And in the past year or two, there have been frequent visions in the entire Purple Mansion, not only in the Purple Realm, but also in the Bitter Realm, the Hidden Dragon Abyss had a strange movement as early as a few months ago, and the local forces immediately blocked the news after discovering it, and quietly sent people to investigate.

If there is a strange movement in a place like the Hidden Dragon Abyss, it is very likely that there is a strange treasure in the world, and maybe even the secret of the end of the previous era, how can the local forces allow others to get involved in such a big thing?

However, it always backfired, and in the past few months, not only did they not find any useful information, but they didn't know who leaked the news, which caused cultivators from all over the world to flock to it.

At the beginning, they naturally tried their best to block the area on the grounds that "this place is dangerous, don't approach", but as there were more and more cultivators from the Quartet, they could no longer control it, and if they forcibly controlled it, they were afraid that it would cause a large-scale conflict, so the gains outweighed the losses.

So, they simply pretended to be good people and took the initiative to release the news, attracting more cultivators to gather, while they themselves hid in the shadows.

So as early as last month, there have been countless cultivators who have entered the Hidden Dragon Abyss, but there are very few who have come out, and there are even rumors that there are invulnerable monsters inside, and once they are attacked by monsters, they will become terrible monsters after an hour, and they will bite when they see people.

In short, the Hidden Dragon Abyss has been in a uproar for more than a month, so the Cloud Mist Academy used the new disciple's training as an excuse to set foot here, and secretly sent elders to investigate and protect it, as for the real purpose, it is unknown.

A hundred miles away is not very far away for cultivators, and half an hour later, Xiao Chen's six people have already arrived at the periphery of the Hidden Dragon Abyss.

In front of you is an endless mountain range, if you want to pass through, even if you want to go through it, it will take several days, after passing through it, you will find the abbot, one of the four realms of suffering, and below the mountain, is the hidden dragon abyss.

There are many myths and legends about the Hidden Dragon Abyss, and the most important theory is that this place is left over from the last era, tens of thousands of years ago, there were dragons living here, but in the last era of annihilation, the dragon was extinct, leaving only endless legends for future generations. (Note 1)

The six of them landed on a hill, and when they looked at it from a distance, they saw that the mountains were full of clouds and mist, and if they were in it, they were afraid that it would be difficult to discern the direction.

"Brother Xiao, do you want to go down now?" Yang Qing asked intently when he saw Xiao Chen's eyebrows furrowed.

Xiao Chen observed intently for a moment before he nodded: "There is something unusual here, be careful." For some reason, he seemed to faintly feel a trace of demonic energy, and this demonic aura seemed to be familiar.

At that moment, the six swords fell down the mountain, and when they approached the ground, they seemed to be subjected to an extremely strong suction, and the flying swords of the six people all vibrate, faintly uncontrollable, but in the end they fell safely.

"Damn, what's this place?" a man beside Yang Qing looked around and said in a daze, obviously still a little shocked.

Xiao Chen looked around and saw the ancient trees nearby, the varieties of these trees were difficult to see outside, as if they were really derived from ancient times.

"Be careful, go. ”

The sun didn't shine below, and it was a little gloomy, Xiao Chen led the way in front, Chu Qi followed him with a full moon blade in his hand, and Yang Qing and the others scattered a little, and the group walked very carefully, not only to be vigilant against the unknown dangers lurking in the mountains, but also to guard against other cultivators.

It was about noon, the clouds and mist above the mountain range gradually dissipated under the sun, and the surroundings finally did not seem so gloomy, and suddenly a "sinister" sound sounded in the forest not far away, and the seventh day of the first month immediately became vigilant.

"Beware, something is approaching......" Xiao Chen said intently, and before his words fell, a black shadow suddenly struck from the oblique thorn.

"Zheng!" With a loud sound, Chu Qi swung out the full moon blade, shaking the black shadow back, and the blow that could assassinate the Yuan Infant cultivator hit the black shadow as if it couldn't cause a trace of damage.

"It's a corpse puppet!" Yang Qing exclaimed, immediately remembering the people of the Immortal Hall who had been turned into a corpse puppet that night.

I saw that the black shadow slowly turned into a person, covered in black mist, with strange cyan lines crawling on his neck, and his two eyes were also purple-red.

"No, it's not a corpse puppet, it's a cultivator who came here a month ago. Xiao Chen said concentratingly, and as he spoke, he slowly sacrificed the Innocent Immortal Sword.

"Evil!" In an instant, the figure struck at everyone again, the speed was as fast as lightning, and with only a gust of wind, Yang Qing and the others felt a sense of suffocation, this thing was even more powerful than the corpse puppet of the Immortal Hall!

"Be careful!" Xiao Chen's sleeves flicked, and instantly sent several people seven or eight feet away, and his palm slapped to the ground, and his body was empty.

With a "snort", the surrounding grass and trees flew around, and more than a dozen cracks instantly cracked in the place attacked by the figure, and black gas continued to seep out, and the nearby grass and trees were contaminated with that black gas, and they were actually withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Yang Qing and the others were all shocked, and quickly sacrificed their flying swords to slash at the figure, but the flying sword that destroyed the golden cracking stone could not hurt this person at this moment, but as soon as it touched the black qi on this person's body, the flying sword was faintly stained.

"Heaven and earth are infinite!

Xiao Chen shouted loudly, and the seal in his hand continued to form, and the Innocent Sword instantly turned into thousands of golden sword qi, and the "Xiu Xiu" continued to pass through the man's chest, and finally broke a big hole in the man's chest.

"Bang!" There was a loud sound, and the man finally fell on his back, but the big hole in his chest did not flow blood, but instead of flowing out, streams of black gas kept coming out.

"Get out of the way!"

Xiao Chen shouted, Yang Qing and the others were all shocked, and hurriedly flew back more than ten zhang away, secretly surprised in their hearts, dealing with such an evil thing, probably only a divine weapon like the Innocent Sword would not be contaminated.

After a while, the black qi on the person's corpse gradually dissipated, and Yang Qing was still a little apprehensive, and asked, "Brother Xiao, what is this?"

"People who have been infected by demonic consciousness have completely turned into demons and cannot be saved. Xiao Chen looked at the man's withered corpse and said intently.

"Demon Consciousness Infection?" Yang Qing and the others were all stunned, they had only heard of Demon Qi Contamination, but they had never heard of any Demon Sense Contamination.

Xiao Chen nodded: "I'll talk to you in detail when I have time in the future, and then you must be careful, don't be hurt by that kind of demonized person as Fangcai." ”

He could finally be sure now that there was nothing wrong with the demonic qi he felt on it before, it was the kind of demonic qi that had seeped out of the ground from the abyss of demonic breath at the beginning, and there was faintly mixed with a trace of yin qi from the underworld, but it was not as heavy as the abyss of demonic breath.

In any case, this matter must be unusual, and the next few people walked cautiously to the depths of the mountain, and they also met many cultivators from other places on the way, but they did not travel with them, but Xiao Chen learned that the reason why so many people came to the Hidden Dragon Abyss seemed to be because it was rumored that there were divine dragon spirits here.

The so-called divine dragon essence is the immortal essence of the ancient divine dragon, if you absorb this thing, you can get the divine dragon inheritance, and then directly feather for nine days, and enjoy the blessings of the immortals forever, for these, Xiao Chen naturally knows a little bit about these, but he has always thought that it is better to cultivate the way, or to be down-to-earth.

At dusk, a light rain suddenly began to fall in the sky, making the originally gloomy mountain range even darker.

A few people changed into hats, and walked forward again, and suddenly saw a crack in the ground with black gas coming out, under the rain and fog, these black gases not only did not disperse, but spread faster, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand: "Stop!"

Yang Qing and the others immediately stopped, looking at the black qi surging up from the ground in a daze, Xiao Chen calmed down, sure enough, it was the same as the demonic qi of the Demon Breath Abyss, but it was already very serious at the beginning, so a black cloud covering the sky and the sun was formed above the valley, and it was not so serious here, but it was obviously more than such a leak point.

"This, this demonic aura...... It's not from the human world!" This time, even Yang Qing saw the clues.

Note 1: The last era of annihilation was not the era in which the protagonist lived 7,000 years ago, and it was mentioned in the text that the era of annihilation should have arrived 7,000 years ago, but it was resolved for some reason, so the last era of annihilation was still the one that was 10,000 years ago.

As for why the era of annihilation 7,000 years ago did not finally come as scheduled, it will be explained later in the article, and the previous article has actually hinted at it.
