Zhu Xian: Qingyun Sword Immortal, start with Lu Xueqi

Chapter 60 Biyao
……

Zhang Yuan nodded, his expression solemn: "It's very likely. Let's check around first to see if we can find the entrance. If we can't find the entrance, we'll make plans."

Fashang put his hands together and said softly, "Amitabha, what Daoist Zhang Yuan said is absolutely right..."

It was dark.

Dark clouds obscured the sun.

All sounds are silent.

Zhang Yuan led a group of people to explore the surroundings and search continuously, trying to find the entrance to the Wanfu Ancient Cellar.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, bringing with it a pungent, fishy smell. Zhang Yuan frowned and immediately became alert. He looked in the direction of the wind and saw that something seemed to be stirring in the cloud.

"Everyone be careful!" Zhang Yuan reminded in a low voice, while tightening the sword in his hand.

Hearing this, everyone stood up and stared at the cloud. Gradually, countless pairs of scarlet eyes appeared in the cloud. They were blood-red bats! They seemed to have gathered into a powerful force in the night, ready to attack everyone.

"Prepare for battle!" Zhang Yuan shouted, drawing his sword and heading towards the wave of blood-red bats.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. The blood-colored bats did not attack the crowd directly, but circled around the mountain, as if guiding the crowd.

"Look! That's..." Lu Xueqi shouted, pointing at a cliff on the mountain.

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a hidden cave entrance on the cliff. The cave entrance was covered with vines and thorns, and it was impossible to find it without careful observation. At this moment, those blood-colored bats were constantly flying out of the cave entrance, as if they were revealing the true entrance to the Wanbat Ancient Cellar to everyone.

"It seems that we have found the ancient cellar of Wanfu." Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with determination.

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, everyone calmed down, but they were still on guard. Lu Xueqi frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on the hidden cave entrance on the cliff, and said, "This cave entrance looks ordinary, but it hides the secret of the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cellar. We must be careful."

The Dharma Image nodded in agreement. He walked forward slowly, clasped his hands together, and chanted a scripture in a low voice, as if praying for everyone, or seeking some kind of guidance. He opened his eyes, and his gaze became firm: "Amitabha, although this journey is dangerous, it is also our opportunity. Everyone must be careful and do not be careless."

Zhang Yuan nodded, he looked at everyone and said, "Then let's all go in together. Even if there are demons from the evil ways in the ancient cellar, we have more people and can take care of each other."

"Okay. Fellow Daoist Zhang Yuan is absolutely right. This place was the former stronghold of the Blood Refining Hall, and is now where the demons are active. It is indeed not advisable for us to separate, otherwise it will be easy to be defeated one by one..." Li Xun nodded.

Zhang Yuan looked around, including Fashang Fashan and everyone else, and seeing that no one had any objections, he spoke slowly.

"let's go."

Zhang Yuan finished off the Qingyun Sect's representatives and led the people from Fenxiang Valley and Tianyin Temple to approach the cave entrance cautiously. He drew out his long sword, and the tip of the sword gently touched the vines and thorns, pushing them away one by one.

Inside the cave, a chilly breath blew in, making people shiver.

As Zhang Yuan's sword tip gently pushed aside the last bit of vines and thorns, a deep black hole gradually appeared before everyone's eyes, like a huge beast's big mouth, quietly waiting for the arrival of its prey. The cold breath from the cave, carrying an ancient and decayed smell, made people feel cold involuntarily, and even the dust in the air seemed to be solidified by this force.

Zhang Yuan looked back at everyone, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Everyone follow me closely, the situation inside is unclear, please be careful."

After saying that, he took the lead and stepped into the cave entrance. The sword in his hand drew a faint light in the darkness, guiding the direction for the team behind him.

Zhang Yuan thought about it.

He put the Dragon-Slaying Sword back.

Take out the Soul-Devouring Stick and the Liuhe Mirror.

The Soul-Devouring Stick and the Liuhe Mirror, one for attack and one for defense, are just right for the narrow environment inside Gujiao.

It’s not that the Dragon Slaying Sword is not powerful enough.

Instead, Zhang Yuan felt that it would be easier to play the pig and eat the tiger by using the Soul-Eating Stick.

and.

The Dragon-Slaying Sword was conceived within his body.

As long as the mind moves, it can be summoned instantly without any delay.

It's very simple.

A Taoist holding a magic sword.

And a Taoist holding a fire stick.

It is obvious who is more likely to play the pig and eat the tiger, and who is more likely to play the pig and eat the tiger.

Lu Xueqi followed closely behind, holding a long sword with a flashing cold light in her hand, her eyes cold and firm, always ready to deal with possible dangers.

The Dharma Image walked steadily step by step, continuing to recite scriptures in a low voice, adding a sense of spiritual peace to the team.

Li Xun and other disciples from Fenxiang Valley followed closely behind?
Monks such as Fashan from Tianyin Temple put their hands together and silently chanted Buddhist mantras, as if they were communicating with this ancient land in their unique way, seeking shelter and guidance.

As we go deeper, the light in the cave becomes dimmer and dimmer.

Zhang Yuan frowned. It was not easy for them to observe in such a dim environment. He turned around and spoke to a Qingyun Sect disciple.

"Zhang Xiaofan, use the night-shining pearl to illuminate and light the torch."

Zhang Xiaofan immediately pulled out a night-shining pearl from his bosom. The pearl emitted a soft and bright light in the darkness, instantly illuminating the surrounding space. At the same time, he quickly took out a few torches from his backpack, lit them with the fire starter he carried with him, and distributed them to the other people in the team.

"Everyone be careful, hold the torches firmly and don't let the wind blow them out." Zhang Xiaofan warned, his voice echoing in the empty cave with a hint of nervousness and caution.

Lu Xueqi looked at Zhang Xiaofan's skilled movements and nodded slightly, and her evaluation of him in her heart increased a little. She said softly: "Zhang Xiaofan, you did a good job."

Zhang Xiaofan smiled innocently and scratched his head: "Senior Sister Lu, you are too kind. This is what I should do."

As the torches lit up, the scene inside the cave gradually became clearer. The walls of the cave were covered with moss and strange runes, which seemed to be telling an ancient story. There was an indescribable sense of oppression in the air, which made people involuntarily speed up their breathing.

Faxiang stopped and looked around solemnly: "The atmosphere here is very wrong, everyone should be careful." Zhang Yuan nodded, and the Soul Devouring Stick in his hand flickered with a dim light in the darkness, as if it resonated with some kind of power in the cave. He said in a deep voice: "Master Faxiang is right, this place is indeed full of unknown dangers. We must always be vigilant and not take it lightly."

The team continued to move forward, the light of the torches flickered in the cave, illuminating everyone's tense and determined faces. Suddenly, a low roar came from the front, making everyone's heart rise to their throats.

"What's that sound?" Li Xun asked nervously, holding the magic weapon tightly in his hand, ready to deal with any possible enemies at any time.

Zhang Yuan frowned, took a deep breath, and tried to judge the situation ahead from the sound: "Not sure, but it sounds like the roar of some beast. Everyone be careful and prepare for battle."

At this moment, a huge figure suddenly jumped out from the darkness. It was a giant beast covered with black scales. There was a ferocious light flashing in its eyes and saliva dripping from its mouth. It was obviously extremely hungry.

"It's a monster!" Lu Xueqi exclaimed. The long sword in her hand was instantly unsheathed. The sword light was like a dragon, and it went straight to the vital point of the giant beast.

Zhang Yuan was not to be outdone, he wielded the Soul Devouring Stick, the shadow of the stick was like a dragon, and it complemented the sword light of Lu Xueqi, together resisting the attack of the giant beast. Others also took action, showing what they had learned, and started a fierce battle with the giant beast.

During the battle, Zhang Yuan found that although the beast was extremely powerful, its movements were relatively clumsy. He suddenly changed his tactics and no longer fought the beast head-on. Instead, he used the flexibility of the Soul Devouring Stick to constantly move around the beast, looking for its flaws.

Finally, after a clever dodge, Zhang Yuan found the giant beast's weakness - its eyes that were flashing with ferocious light.

He swung the Soul-Devouring Stick without hesitation, and the tip of the stick, with a whistling sound, hit the giant beast's eye hard.

"Bang!" The giant beast let out a shrill roar, and fell heavily to the ground. After struggling for a few times, it stopped moving.

The Soul-Eating Stick alternates between red and clear light.

Suddenly something strange happened.

Zhang Yuan suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, a feeling that he wanted to devour the giant beast in front of him. He tried his best to suppress this feeling.

The Soul-Devouring Stick is truly the most precious treasure of the evil ways.

The devil is really too strong.

Most people simply can’t calm down.

Fortunately, Zhang Yuan's spiritual power was deep enough, and he finally stabilized and stabilized the Soul Devouring Stick. Otherwise, if he swallowed the giant beast in front of him, there would be big problems.

He is a righteous man.

It's not the evil magic.

The companions around as well as Master Shuiyue and Uncle Cangsong were all watching in secret.

After the battle, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off their foreheads. Zhang Yuan looked at the giant beast lying on the ground and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Fortunately, we discovered its weakness in time, otherwise this battle would have lasted for who knows how long."

Lu Xueqi walked up to Zhang Yuan, her face full of admiration: "Zhang Yuan, you did a great job."

Zhang Yuan smiled modestly: "No, no..."

Just when everyone was immersed in the joy of victory in the battle and had slightly relaxed their vigilance, a eerie and strange ghost cry suddenly came from the depths of the ancient cellar. The sound seemed to be able to penetrate the human soul, causing an inexplicable chill to rise in people's hearts.

"Everyone be careful!" Zhang Yuan became alert at the first moment. He quickly looked around, trying to find the source of the sound.

Lu Xueqi also frowned and clenched the sword in her hand again. She whispered to Zhang Yuan, "This crying sound is not simple. It seems that there is an evil force approaching."

Before he finished his words, two cold rays of light flew out from the darkness. They were hidden weapons carefully arranged by Jiang Laosan. They were silent but extremely deadly.

One of the hidden weapons is a small red cross.

Another hidden weapon is the fangs of some large animal.

Zhang Yuan was quick-witted and dodged the flying red cross easily by moving his body to the side. At the same time, he shouted, "There are hidden weapons, everyone be careful!"

Lu Xueqi reacted just as quickly. She swung her sword, and the sword flashed like lightning, knocking another fang to the ground with a crisp sound. Her face was solemn, and her eyes scanned the surroundings sharply: "It seems that there are other enemies hiding here."

The Dharmadhatu put his hands together and muttered something, as if sensing the surrounding atmosphere. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "This evil force is very strong, everyone must be careful."

Zhang Xiaofan nervously clenched the torch in his hand and looked around vigilantly: "So what should we do now?"

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and calmed his mind. He looked around and found that the hidden weapon was shot from a hidden cave. He decisively commanded: "Everyone, move together, stand back to back, and don't let the enemy take advantage. Zhang Xiaofan, you continue to illuminate, and the others prepare for battle."

Everyone quickly adjusted their positions and formed a tight defensive formation. At this moment, the eerie and strange ghost cry sounded again, and along with the cry, dark shadows rushed out from the darkness and rushed towards everyone.

"It's a demon!" Lu Xueqi exclaimed. The long sword in her hand suddenly burst into a dazzling light. The sword light weaved like a weave, cutting the approaching black shadow into two pieces.

Jie Jie...

Seeing that the sneak attack didn't work, Jiang Laosan quickly showed up and gave everyone a strange laugh.

"Very good, very good. The people from Qingyun Sect, Fenxiang Valley, and Tianyin Temple are all here. You are all here!!!"

"Jie Jie..."

"Just give me your blood and essence!"

Before Jiang Laosan finished his words, he flashed and appeared in front of everyone like a ghost, holding a dagger covered with strange runes in his hand. The dagger was flashing with a faint blue light, exuding a heart-pounding chill.

"Devil, don't be so arrogant!" Zhang Yuan shouted angrily, and the Soul Devouring Stick spun in his hand. The shadow of the stick was like a dragon, and with the sound of whistling wind, it went straight to Jiang Laosan's vital point. Jiang Laosan smiled and moved his body strangely to the side, easily dodging Zhang Yuan's attack. At the same time, he swung his hand back, and the dagger drew a strange arc in the air, heading straight for Zhang Yuan's neck.

Zhang Yuan's heart trembled. He knew the power of the dagger very well, so he did not dare to be careless and dodged sideways. However, Jiang Laosan's attack was like a shadow, and the dagger kept changing its trajectory in the air, which was dazzling. Zhang Yuan could only rely on his deep spiritual power and keen intuition to keep walking on the edge of life and death, looking for opportunities to counterattack.

At the same time, Lu Xueqi also launched an offensive. The long sword in her hand was like a dragon swimming out of the sea, the sword light flashing, and each strike contained a sharp sword energy, directly approaching Jiang Laosan's vital points. However, Jiang Laosan seemed to be able to predict the trajectory of her attack and always managed to avoid it at the critical moment.

Fashang put his hands together, chanted something, and golden Buddha light emanated from his body, forming a solid protective shield that enveloped everyone. This protective shield could resist Jiang Laosan's attack, but it could not completely eliminate his threat.
