Chapter 1230 Chapter 1226 The Bad Luck of Looking for Zhu Hong in Simen Mountain!

This Zhu Hong was originally a disciple of the Wutai Sect's Hunyuan Patriarch. Although he had only been studying Taoism in Wutai for more than 20 years, he was deeply loved by the Taiyi Hunyuan Patriarch because of his talent and his habit of flattering and pleasing others. He privately taught him many Taoist methods, helped him to refine the Sanyuan Sword, and even allowed him to enter and exit his alchemy room and the inner cave where he was in seclusion at will. It was for this reason that he took the opportunity to steal the inheritance of Taoism and the protective treasure Taiyi Wuyanluo.

The Hunyuan Patriarch also searched for his whereabouts everywhere, but before he could find him, he caught up with the Emei sword fight. Without the protective treasure, the Hunyuan Patriarch was besieged by the three immortals and two elders. He was hit by the invisible sword of the bitter monk, which forced him to die in the end.

With Zhu Hong's behavior, people who didn't know the inside story thought that he was sent to Wutai by the Emei Sect on purpose.

But Zhu Hong is not. This can be seen from the fact that he dared to sacrifice human lives to refine the six-six true essence gourd that hurts the heaven and earth. He does not belong to the righteous path.

The Wutai and Huashan sects hated him because he stole the protective treasure of the Hunyuan Patriarch, which led to the tragic death of the Hunyuan Patriarch. So much so that people from both the righteous and evil paths disliked him and wanted to take his life.

That is to say, Zhu Hong had been unknown before. After stealing the treasure, he lived in seclusion in a remote place with scarce spiritual energy. He married a witch named Ni Lanxin. The two usually did not go out of the door, and they survived until now.

However, other people did not know where Zhu Hong lived in seclusion. As a time traveler, how could I not know!

…

Simen Mountain, near the border of western Sichuan, is surrounded by high peaks and steep cliffs, with dead trees and rocks standing in the forest, a scene of poor mountains and bad waters. In addition, the mountain is steep and dangerous, which is not a place for mortals to go, nor is it a place for sword immortals to practice.

Hao Shuai certainly didn't come here for sightseeing, but the notorious Zhu Hong lived in seclusion in this Simen Mountain.

When he came to the vicinity of Simen Mountain, Hao Shuai stood high in the sky and leaned down to look down. He saw four peaks, like a door, standing on each side and forming a circle.

There was an empty basin in the middle. It can be seen faintly that there is evil spirit gathering in the mountains, and the spiritual power is thin. It is indeed a rare dangerous mountain and bad water in the Great Wilderness Nine States.

Of course, it is these dangerous mountains and bad waters that will not be known to others. After all, whether it is cultivating immortals or cultivating demons, they need to find a place with sufficient spiritual energy.

So this Simen Mountain is indeed a good place to hide.

"Hehe~~ But how can you hide it now? Can you still hide it from the time-traveling boss!" Hao Shuai smiled at the mountains below.

So Hao Shuai quietly hid his escape light, lowered his body, and slowly stopped in the Simen Valley.

In the valley, trees stand on the mountain walls. Although the valley is barren, it is autumn now. Logically, there should be piles of dead branches and fallen leaves in the valley.

However, the reality is not like this. Although there are dead leaves, there are definitely not so few compared to the trees on the surrounding mountain walls.

From this, it can be confirmed that there must be people living in this valley. In this way, Hao Shuai is more certain that Zhu Hong must live in the valley.

At the same time, if you look closely, you can faintly see a layer of light black air mixed in the ground under the valley. Thinking carefully, this is definitely not a natural thing, but a sign of some kind of prohibition.

After restraining his breath and coming to the valley, Hao Shuai began to look for the entrance to the cave where Zhu Hong was.

There are no buildings in this valley. Obviously, Zhu Hong can only live in the cave if he wants to live.

Of course, living in this cave is definitely more hidden than building a house in the valley.

"Huh! It's so easy to find!"

Hao Shuai's divine sense had just been released, and he soon discovered an unusual place, where there were traces of formation fluctuations, and he also found the entrance to the cave here.

"This should be Zhu Hong's cave"

Hao Shuai smiled suddenly.

After carefully feeling the formation restrictions set by Zhu Hong, he found that it was extremely ordinary. In Hao Shuai's eyes, it was full of flaws.

"Huh? I didn't expect this guy to enjoy himself and arrange his cave well!" Looking at the passage of the cave, the stone walls above were inlaid with various luminous gems such as night pearls, and Hao Shuai smiled secretly.

After bypassing the restrictions and entering the cave, Hao Shuai found that although the cave was not large, it had everything from alchemy rooms, courtyards, and bedrooms, but one of the stone chambers was set with restrictions.

Feeling the restrictions in this stone chamber, it was still a very simple restriction. I don't know what Zhu Hong has learned after learning Taoism from the Hunyuan Patriarch for more than 20 years.

Otherwise, how could a formation restriction be so simple?

"I don't know if Zhu Hong is in there now?!"

"Forget it, leave him alone. Even if he is unlucky, I will do justice for the heaven." Hao Shuai thought to himself.

Hao Shuai was not afraid of Zhu Hong at all. He was just a scum in the Jindan realm, and he was not taken seriously by Hao Shuai.

Even if he had the Taiyi Wuyan Luo treasure on him. But this defensive treasure depends on who uses it. If the Hunyuan Patriarch uses it, only a few celestial beings who are still in the world can break the defense.

But Hao Shuai knew that Zhu Hong, even now, has not been able to completely refine the Taiyi Wuyan Luo and exert the defensive power of the treasure, so that any third-generation Emei disciple can kill him.

Therefore, Hao Shuai raised his fist without any scruples and blasted the restriction on the stone chamber into slag with one punch.

Walking into the stone chamber, Zhu Hong was not inside. Looking around, there were only simple stone beds, stone tables, stone chairs and other furniture and some daily necessities.

"Both husband and wife are not here? Taiyi Wuyanluo is not here either?"

Hao Shuai, who saw the entire stone chamber clearly with just one glance, was somewhat speechless about his luck.

But he was not in a hurry. He had just violently broken the restrictions of the stone chamber, and Zhu Hong would be back soon.

Hao Shuai's guess was correct. When he broke the restrictions, Zhu Hong, who was refining the Liuliu Zhenyuan Gourd not far away, knew about it.

It was a coincidence that Zhu Hong had left a source of disaster since he had refined the Liuliu Zhenyuan Gourd. Every year, for a month, the coldness in his body burst out and he could not control himself. He had to rely on the fire of the earth's core to preserve his body temperature and keep his body alive. A month ago, the coldness in his body burst out so that he could go to the bottom of this underground cave and use the fire of the earth's core to suppress the coldness in his body.

Being cautious by nature, he naturally brought the secret book of "Hunyuan Zhenjing" and Taiyi Wuyanluo with him.

As for his old lover, Ni Lanxin, the soul-chasing lady, she was guarding him on the side.

Coincidentally, at the moment when Zhu Hong finished his practice, he felt that the restriction he left in the cave was broken, and the couple immediately raised the sword light and returned to the cave.

When they returned to the cave, they saw that only Hao Shuai was inside, but the two cautious people did not appear immediately, but carefully observed the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no ambush, they jumped out...
