Five Immortals Gate

Millions of miles away from Qingshan Pass, this place is already inaccessible, and the mountains are rolling. The color of these endless mountains is generally dark green, with thick vegetation, thick and wide leaf stems, and thick dark green. The color seems to be able to drip thick sap from the leaves; the towering giant trees are tall and strong, most of the trees are dozens of feet high, as thick as five or six adults can hug each other, and they stand up to the sky. If you stand on a higher Looking from the top of the mountain, the canopy of trees blocks out the sky and the sun, layer upon layer, endless.

Here, monsters appear everywhere. There are countless low-level monsters, but occasionally high-level monsters appear here.

But in such a vast mountain forest, there is an area of ​​thousands of hectares of mountains and forests. Very few monsters set foot in this area, as if they are very afraid of something.

In this area, there are also steep peaks and virgin forests. At this time, at the top of one of the towering peaks, there is actually a jade palace, with pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and spiritual birds flying among them. .

On this mountain, various pavilions, gardens, bamboo groves, and paths have been built at random from above the halfway point of the mountain. Above the mountainside, clouds and mist are shrouded all year round, hovering among these pavilions, bamboo groves, and paths, as if you can reach out and reach out. Can control the wind and cloud.

At the top of the mountain is a huge platform. The area is astonishingly large, about tens of thousands of feet. The paving stones on the platform are all polished with smooth rocks. Standing on it, you can see the end at a glance, and there are several places behind the platform. There is a grand palace built on top of a hundred steps. The palace has penetrated into the sea of ​​clouds from the eaves, but it is not known how deep the palace goes.

At this time, two people were talking in the palace, and one person was sitting on a huge armchair in the middle of the palace. The backrest and armrests of the chair were densely carved with many unknown ferocious beasts, large and small. These ferocious beasts may be ferocious, Either vicious or gloomy, all of them are emitting a cold light, lifelike and lifelike.

The man sitting on top has a long beard and is about thirty years old. His face is as white as jade and his eyes are somewhat narrow. He wears a scholar's crown and a blue shirt and robe. He has a slender figure, giving people the impression of a highly cultivated Confucian scholar. Another person was sitting close to him in the row of chairs on the left side below him. This was an old man, about sixty years old. He was wearing a black and green robe. His figure was a bit skinny, his face was like a falcon, and his eyes were extremely cold. , glowing coldly, its ten fingers withered, but holding on to the armrests of the chair like eagle talons.

The two of them sat in the grand exhibition hall, looking extremely small, like two ants in a huge palace.

"Peak Master, my subordinates arranged for the green harriers released by the law enforcement disciples outside to bring news. A pile of dead bones was found on the periphery of a suspected monk's ruins hundreds of thousands of miles away from here. After using secret methods to detect I guess it is the outer disciple who defected from our peak seven years ago." The old man said to the middle-aged Confucian scholar above him, but his expression was full of hatred, and his eyes were even more fierce.

"Oh, the monks' ruins are hundreds of thousands of miles away? Even the Ten Thousand Miles Transmission Charm cannot be used. I think even with the physique of the second-level green harrier falcon, it has been flying for at least dozens of days. The law enforcement disciples can find it. What was stolen by the defecting disciple?" The scholar in green shirt turned to look at the old man.

"No, I only found the damaged storage bag next to the dead bones, but there were other things," the old man replied, shaking his head at the end.

"This incident has caused this peak to lose a lot of face in front of the other four peaks. Although what that person took away was only our introductory technique, it can only be practiced by the disciples recruited by my sect. The body-building chapter cannot be practiced by anyone but my sect's disciples, especially the basic body-building formula recorded in it, which only my sect's disciples can know, otherwise there is no point in caring about this entry-level technique," the Confucian scholar said with a frown.

After thinking for a while, he tapped his slender fingers on his thigh a few times, and then said, "In this way, you can send some law enforcement disciples from this peak over to expand the search area. You can start from the drug store, regardless of whether it is a mortal drug store." , I am still a monk, I have checked it all, as long as someone takes away the introductory skills, it is possible to practice, I don't want to have Qi Condensation Stage disciples of my sect in the outside world in the future," the Confucian scholar said.

"Yes, Peak Master, my subordinates also think so. If someone is found to be practicing, then according to the rules of our Law Enforcement Hall, his soul will be killed and then used to feed the soul-tangled filarial worm, leaving him in a dilemma of life and death. , and then call other sects to serve as a warning." The old man Ying Falcon said fiercely.

Outside Qingshan Pass City and in the valley, Li Yan, with the assistance of Master Ji, practiced hard every day, and his time was spent in this repetition. Li Yan also gradually felt that as his practice progressed, the teacher's piano music was gradually unable to suppress the heat in his body. Especially in the past two days, he basically completed his practice in a semi-conscious and semi-conscious state. He knew that the sound of the piano had begun to lose its effect on him, but for him, tomorrow would no longer exist, because tomorrow was already the forty-ninth day.

In the early morning, when the sky was still bright, Li Yan opened the door and walked out, and then took a walk in the valley. In recent days, he had been disturbed by the irritability in his chest and had trouble sleeping. In addition, he also had to practice at the waterhole today. Now, I simply walked in the valley and breathed in the fresh air of this autumn morning, which could relieve some of the irritability in my chest. About half an hour later, he returned to the room. At this time, the woman had brought breakfast. After a few simple bites, he lost the taste and sat cross-legged in the room.

Not long after, there were several knocks on the door outside the house. Li Yan opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and when he opened the door, it was Chen.

An and Li Yin both bowed respectfully to him. Chen An said, "Sir, please ask your subordinates to place the copper stove next to the pool."

"That's a problem for you two." Li Yan nodded to him and said. Since he came to Degu, Li Yan has had very little contact with other people. Basically, it's just the woman who delivered the food and these two people. These people are usually very nice to him. It was respectful. He was not used to it at first, but as time went by, he gradually got used to these etiquettes.

After the two men carried the copper stove out, Li Yan also followed them out of the room. Soon Chen An and Li Yin placed the copper stove not far from the pool, and the two pushed the copper stove back and forth. After confirming that the furnace was stable and correct, he turned around and walked towards the second training room of Master Ji. At this time, the door of the training room was closed tightly. It seemed that Master Ji had already entered it, so they stood there and waited. Not sent.

Li Yan stood in front of his room and did not talk to the two of them. He just stared at the copper stove at the pool in a daze. Somehow, looking at the copper stove and the pool, he suddenly remembered the man he had never met before. If he remembered correctly, that senior brother seemed to have died suddenly just over a month after entering the valley. The words "more than a month" flashed repeatedly in his mind. "Seventy-nine days" was less than two months. Whether it was just a coincidence, he fell into deep thought.

"Master, Master, I'm calling you!" Several calls interrupted his contemplation. He looked up and saw Li Yin walking towards him. He called to him softly as he walked. Farther away, Division Ji was already standing in the water pool. Next to it, the already very familiar copper basin has been placed on top of the copper stove.

He didn't know how long he had been thinking about this. Li Yan shook his head gently, as if to get rid of the turbulent thoughts, then calmed down and walked over there. Upon seeing this, Chen An and Li Yin quietly exited the valley.

The third military commander was dressed in a loose black robe. He stood not far from the copper stove with his hands behind his back. He looked at the copper basin blankly, as if talking to himself or saying to Li Yan, "It's the last day, it's the last day." Yes, can you do it?”

Although the words were very soft, Li Yan heard it very clearly in this quiet valley, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. But thinking that the matter was over, he stopped talking and walked to the copper stove in a few steps. .

Today, the mist above the copper basin is no longer the azure-black mist of the previous days, but a pure black mist, thick and substantial, constantly tumbling and surging. Li Yan looked at the copper basin. The basin was already full of juice. The juice was as thick as boiling ink. He could no longer see the herbs inside. Only the gurgling black bubbles kept swelling and bursting, and bursts of black gas rose up. , and then melted upward into the surging pure black mist, making it even richer. Then countless small black bubbles poured out densely from the copper basin, and then formed large black bubbles that bulged, exploded, and soared. There was a burst of smoke, which started again and again. It was obvious that the medicine was more powerful than before.

\u003c/di\u003e

How many times it is enhanced.

Li Yan took a deep breath, stood up, and stretched his hands into the thick black air that reunited and persisted. Suddenly, a huge force that had never been seen before surged towards his hands. , the same ten strands of black energy penetrated into his fingers, but these ten strands of black energy were by no means as erratic as before, but were several times thicker, thick and substantial, as fierce as ten iron rods. Inserting his finger, Li Yan felt a bone-deep pain in his finger like a surging wave. He trembled all over, gritted his teeth and groaned, but the surging pain spread along his finger. , singing along his arms and starting to hit every part of his body. If it hadn't been for the previous dozens of days of practice, he would have fainted from the pain just now.

Master Ji stood aside and stared at Li Yan with no expression on his face. He only occasionally raised his eyebrows a few times, revealing his inner unrest. He stared at Li Yan motionless.

Time passed like this little by little. After about two cups of tea, Li Yan's expression was sluggish. He kept humming and slowly stepped back several steps to the edge of the pool. At this moment, Li Yan had no thoughts in his mind, and he had even lost the idea of ​​​​running the exercises. However, the thick black energy seemed to no longer need the guidance of the exercises, and had been forcefully poured into it on its own, and then circulated through the meridians in his body. As he walked around, his skin was all black, his face was distorted and swollen, and black aura appeared on his face, which was extremely terrifying.

Li Yanjue's breath was flowing wildly in his body, and he felt as if his body was about to burst. He felt that countless stinging air currents had burned his internal organs to ashes.

He barely maintained a trace of clarity, turned to look at Master Ji, and said with difficulty, "Old, old, old teacher, disciple, disciple." He couldn't continue to say the rest of the words, and bursts of breath were rushing through his body, making him extremely painful.

The third division commander still stood motionless, his face expressionless.

Li Yan's vision gradually blurred, and his body was shaky. After a few breaths, he fell backwards and fell into the puddle behind him, but the ten thick black energies were still firmly pulling on his fingers, waiting for him After the body fell into the pool and sank downwards, it hovered and hesitantly on the surface of the water, like a living python.

After Li Yan fell into the water, a chill came over his head, and then the chill on his body increased greatly. Li Yan woke up a little. At this time, he could see the sparkling pool water in front of him. Looking up through the water, he could vaguely see the shore. A somewhat distorted but motionless figure was reflected by the water.

Li Yan was still sinking into the pool. Even if he started to choke on the cold pool water, he couldn't stop the stinging air flowing through his body. His consciousness became increasingly blurred. When the last trace of clarity remained, he let out a bitter smile. "Is this the path that senior brother has walked?"
