After setting up a monument to mark the boundary, Zhou Bin turned over and landed on the ground, smiling: "I hope the secret land will not expand anymore after tomorrow."

Gu Xuan looked at the stone monument for a few times and answered slowly: "I heard about the Taoist ceremony last time, so I thought there was a monument erected as well."

In terms of bloodline, Gu Xuan can be regarded as a member of the royal family, but when facing Zhou Bin, he didn't have any strange emotions.

There are many rocks on the top of the hill. Zhou Bin sat cross-legged on the rocks: "Twenty years ago, we also erected a monument to the east."

"Not only here, I flew around the secret place with a crane before I came down, and I didn't see any stone tablets."

After Gu Xuan finished speaking, Xiao Qing made a clear sound, as if she didn't want to stay outside, so she simply put it into the fusheng bag.

Zhou Bin said solemnly: "After twenty years, the secret land must have expanded. We will find out when we explore it tomorrow."

Mu Rong also put away the four-phase bird and glanced at Zhou Bin: "How much has the secret land expanded in the past? Does the imperial court have records?"

Zhou Bin said: "I only know that the monument has been erected twice before."

"It seems that we have to enter the secret place from the east tomorrow." Gu Xuan thought thoughtfully, and then realized that he had made a mistake, "I am just suggesting that our actions should be decided by Emperor Xi."

Zhou Bin smiled slightly: "The emperor had this intention, otherwise he would not have set the meeting point here."

Nangong Shang, who was silent, suddenly looked to the side and ahead, and saw He Wei, with fluttering clothes and sleeves, approaching quickly.

The three of them stopped talking, and He Wei quickly moved nearby, landed on a rock, and raised his hands to Zhou Bin: "I'm a little late for coming down, Master Bin, please forgive me."

Zhou Bin did not make excuses: "The emperor only said that the sun would meet here, so Master Congratulations, he came at the right time."

He Wei sat down cross-legged and said: "Anyone who collects herbs from the lower sect must report their experience in collecting herbs and record it in a book. I have read through this book. The last time the herb collectors encountered third-level monsters..."

Mu Rong heard what the other party meant and interrupted: "There are more than ten third-level demons in Qianqiu Blessed Land. As long as there are third-level demon territories with elixirs, I have visited them one by one, but I have never met any third-level demons."

.”

Gu Xuan answered: "The fossil beast from Duanyue Cliff has advanced to the third level."

Zhou Bin raised his eyebrows: "Shu Gao must have been to Duanyue Cliff. Have you killed any fossil beasts?"

Gu Xuan shook his head: "The fossil beast has strange abilities and is not easy to deal with. I will just lure it away."

Nangong Shang said: "I passed by invisibly near Daque Peak and saw the Weeping Moon Bird King."

Daku Peak is the nest of the Weeping Moon Bird. Like Qingxu Lake, no elixir grows on this peak.

He Wei looked at Gray Fog: "Third-grade monsters will not disappear for no reason. It must be related to the secret place."

Zhou Bin said loudly: "No matter what, with the Emperor personally leading the team, we will be able to conquer the secret place and reveal the truth."

They exchanged a few more words, and Dongfang Qi and Beichenyan would rather come together with Zhao Jun.

Rather, she looks like a young woman, wearing a dark yellow feathered coat. Zhao Jun has dark skin, a tall body, and wears a black cloak. Both of them are explorers of the Jiuyuan Sect.

Beichenyan is in her twenties. Although she has an ordinary appearance, her pink clothes bring out her exquisite and proud curves.

The three of them all greeted with smiles, but Dongfang Qi was as arrogant as a pine tree. He just cupped his hands and seemed to disdain to say anything.

After a brief greeting, the four people all sat cross-legged on the rock, very close to each other, with a vague sense of hugging each other.

Zhou Bin looked at the sky: "Night has fallen, but Master Jiang and Master Xue haven't arrived yet. Could it be that there was an accident?"

He Wei said sternly: "The Qianqiu Blessed Land is so dangerous. Junior Brother Jiang is impulsive and will inevitably encounter dangers."

Crisis, I won’t enter the secret place until tomorrow morning, and stay here tonight, etc.”

Mu Rong quickly answered: "What Fellow Daoist He said is true. No matter what, we cannot abandon them."

Zhou Bin heard this and said nothing more. Although he was a royal warrior, he was not the explorer leader.

On the other hand, Nangong Shangchao Guxuan sent a message: "These two people are clearly singing a harmony. Jiang Zang and Xue Gui have probably encountered something unexpected. Although we join forces, we are really going to encounter an eternal crisis. I am afraid they will depend on each other for their lives."

"If it's as you said, we will rely on each other." Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "The four of them obviously met up elsewhere and came together again."

Nangong Shang's voice was deep: "I think they arrived late because they were waiting for Jiang Zang and Xue Gui."

Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "In this way, the explorers will form two camps: Daomiao and warriors."

…

A peaceful night passed.

At dawn, the nine meditating explorers opened their eyes one after another.

As expected, Jiang Zang and Xue Gui broke their promise, and the explorers had a tacit understanding and did not mention their names again.

The four warriors communicated a few words to each other, their expressions became more solemn, and even Dongfang Qi restrained his arrogance.

Zhou Bin stood up, straightened his appearance, and said solemnly: "Everyone, I will please distract the emperor."

Other explorers stood up one after another, their expressions either solemn or solemn.

Zhou Bin immediately took out a golden jade charm and held it with his left hand.

The nail on his right hand cut his finger, squeezed out a drop of blood, and blended it into the jade talisman.

Next, he held up the jade talisman with both hands toward the sky, bowed and closed his eyes.

"Respectfully request the emperor to issue a talisman!"

The surface of the jade talisman was flashing with blood, and a ball of golden light flew out from it, sinking directly into Zhou Bin's eyebrows.

Wang Mang said with fascination: "That golden light is the distraction of Emperor Xi. Only the Dharma Realm can have this supreme magical power."

Zhou Bin closed his eyes tightly and kept holding his hands, motionless, with a faint golden light shining from the acupuncture point between his eyebrows.

Suddenly the wind and clouds surged over the hill, and in an instant they gathered into a large cloud, from which a muffled thunder could be heard.

The eight explorers looked up into the sky one after another, and Gu Xuan discovered that the place where the clouds gathered was less than forty feet above the ground, which was slightly higher than the gray fog in the secret place.

Wang Mang answered the question: "The Feng Shui Jue Formation sensed the distraction of Fa Xiang and brewed the Lihuo God Thunder in the sky. The void restriction here is so low, no wonder Xiaoqing refused to fly through the gray fog yesterday."

Seeing that there was no red lightning in the clouds in the sky, Gu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhou Bin again.

Wang Mang quickly said: "Any Dharma-Xiang distraction can be transferred to one's body. Unlike seizing one's body, Xi Huang's distraction can control Zhou Bin's body by temporarily sealing Zhou Bin's soul."

More than ten breaths later, the golden light between Zhou Bin's eyebrows flashed away, and this physical body was completely controlled by Emperor Xi.

The Feng Shui Jue Zhen seemed to be unable to sense the distraction of the Dharma, the muffled thunder suddenly stopped, and the dark clouds gradually dispersed.

I saw Zhou Bin's body open his eyes, his gaze as deep as an ancient well.

The eight explorers quickly bowed and saluted: "Greetings to Emperor Xi!"

"Excuse me."

Emperor Xi took back the golden jade talisman and moved his hands and feet a little.

"Although I have given up my life and visited this place in person, I am restricted by the Jue Formation and cannot exert too many magical powers. I have to rely on you all. Fortunately, you all have superior combat power and extraordinary minds, so you will definitely be able to find out the secret place. Wait for a question.

When the Taoist Ceremony is over, the reward can be fulfilled."

Different from the majesty of Chief Assistant Mo Wen, Emperor Xi feels like a spring breeze.

Like a kind old man.

Gu Xuan secretly complained that although Emperor Xi's words sounded good, he had to survive from the secret place in order to get the reward.

He Wei lowered his eyebrows and spoke respectfully: "I would like to report to Emperor Xi, I have a question in my heart, and at this moment, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Emperor Xi looked at He Wei and waved one hand: "Hey little friend, it's okay to say so."

He Wei quickly said: "Why did I become the explorer appointed by Emperor Xi?"

Gu Xuan was secretly surprised. It turned out that He Wei's explorer quota was not decided internally by the Lingmiao Sect, but by Emperor Xi.

Emperor Xi chuckled: "What He Xiaoyou said is probably a question from the fallen master. Not only He Xiaoyou, but also Mu Xiaoyou and Shang Xiaoyou are also appointed by this emperor. This move has its own purpose. It's still early, so you all sit down and talk."

When the eight Taoist seedlings sat cross-legged on the rock, Emperor Xi also sat cross-legged on the rock without even taking out the futon.

"Everyone who can become an explorer must have something special and have heard some secrets at one time or another. In any low-level interface, disasters will occur every few hundred years, or at most thousands of years. Whenever disasters come, there must be disasters.

Those who deserve the calamity will bear the calamity for the practice world."

Emperor Xi was talking eloquently, and all the seedlings were listening attentively.

"This emperor was the one who suffered the last calamity. With the help of the general trend of the calamity, he established the Great Xi Dynasty. Now hundreds of years have passed, and many spiritual beings have appeared, which means that the calamity will come again, and it will be a rare catastrophe of heaven and earth."

Gu Xuan had heard similar words during Qiuyue Dufa. When Xi Huang mentioned it again, he felt that he understood a lot more.

He Wei thought thoughtfully: "The implication of Emperor Xi's words is that the creation of the secret land is related to the catastrophe of heaven and earth?"

"Exactly." Emperor Xi nodded, "If the secret land is left alone, the Qianqiu Blessed Land will turn into a desert sooner or later. This will be the beginning of the catastrophe. In the history of the Linglong Realm, the victims of the small catastrophe are all spirit monks, and the great catastrophe is not

In this way, there are spiritual monks, people with great luck, and even more vulgar people."

Mu Rong asked: "Emperor Xi, are we all likely to be the victims of this catastrophe?"

Emperor Xi corrected with a smile: "Anyone with spiritual roots is possible."

As soon as these words came out, the four Dao Miao looked at each other with complicated expressions, while the four warriors sighed secretly.

"The great catastrophe began in a secret place. It is most appropriate for those who are responsible for the catastrophe to explore the secret place." Emperor Xi paused slightly, "Another point is that I have a premonition that I will have a catastrophe in the secret place. No matter how I divine the secret, I can't figure it out.

, we need to rely on your luck to cope with this disaster."

Gu Xuan asked: "Emperor Xi, Lingmiao Sect Di Honggao has a human body and a spiritual body, why is he not an explorer?"

Emperor Xi chuckled: "It's not that I look down upon female cultivators. The victims of the Linglong Realm have always been male cultivators, and little friend He's luck is much stronger than that of little friend Di."

Compared with the illusory catastrophe, Nangong Shang was more concerned about the exploration of the secret place, and immediately asked: "The secret place is right in front of us, I wonder what Emperor Xi has discovered?"

Emperor Xi said slowly: "I am taking the opportunity to secretly observe the secret place while talking to you. The gray fog is indeed strange. Even my divine sense can only explore about three feet. The expansion of the secret place has led to the destruction of the secret place.

The formation self-defense, the Void Restriction is extremely low, you must have witnessed it with your own eyes just now."

Mu Rong asked: "Then how should we explore the secret place?"

"Go straight to Huanglong." Emperor Xi blurted out, "According to my investigation, the mystery of the secret place lies in the center. If it is not a spiritual object that eats away the spiritual energy, there is a foreign object that disrupts the secret of heaven."
