Chapter 139 The Fork in the Road

"Xiaojiu, can you teleport us directly outside the Sanjiu Formation?" Liang Yan said looking at the bottle spirit on his shoulder.

The white jade vial flicked its eyes, seeming to say: "Are you still asking?"

Then he saw it jump into the air, and a pure white light spread out from the mouth of the bottle, covering Liang Yan and Zhao Xunzhen, and disappeared in just an instant.

After a while, Liang Yan landed on the ground again.

He looked at the solid land in front of him and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since being sucked into the palm of the big-eared monk in the Golden Core Realm, he has been exploring and breaking through in an illusory dark space.

The feeling of having my feet on the ground again is something I haven't seen for a long time. Although we are still in the underground secret passage at this moment, it is still more reassuring than the environment we were in before.

However, Liang Yan couldn't be happy after a while.

I saw him pointing at several white lights not far away and saying angrily:

"Xiaojiu, I asked you to bring me and Zhao Xunzhen out, but I didn't ask you to bring them out too, right?"

The white light not far away dissipated, revealing the figures of several people. It turned out to be Ji Lai, Meng Qi and Li Huayang.

After hearing this, Xiaojiu's eyes shrank slightly, like a child who had done something wrong, he actually hid directly in Liang Yan's clothes. Only two eyes were exposed, twinkling as if to say:

"You didn't make it clear!"

Seeing its appearance, Liang Yan could only rub his head helplessly.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a man’s voice coming from the other side:

"Brother Liang! You're not dead yet!"

Liang Yan's face darkened, and he turned around to see that the person speaking was indeed Ji Lai!

I just heard him chuckle and say: "As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you must have good fortune! It seems that Brother Liang is very good at good fortune!"

"Shut your bitch!"

Before Liang Yan could speak, Zhao Xunzhen shouted angrily.

"Oh, my sister-in-law is not easy to mess with. Ji made a mistake! Ji made a mistake! If he were outside, he would have to drink three drinks as a penalty!" Ji Lai looked like he was smiling. Although he was apologizing, he was actually teasing the two of them.

"Okay, Brother Ji, stop talking nonsense." Liang Yan frowned slightly and said somewhat helplessly.

Then he turned to Meng Qi, the only foundation-building monk in the field and said:

"Young man Liang Yan, I have met Senior Meng."

"Eh? How did you know that I am Meng Qi?" Meng Qi stared at Liang Yan with a pair of big eyes, showing a somewhat interested expression.

After all, the person who used to call herself "Meng Qi" was actually her puppet.

"This junior's technique is somewhat special. It can detect other people's spiritual power." Liang Yan answered carefully.

"I see, it seems that you already know that I am the real one!"

"That's not the case! I only saw some clues when several sect leaders took action against the four statues in the golden palace."

Seeing his cautious look, Meng Qi couldn't help but giggled:

"You don't have to be too cautious, kid. I'm from the same lineage as Ji Lai's sect. Since you are his friend, I will naturally not bully the younger ones, even if you are a junior."

Liang Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and secretly became more curious about Ji Lai.

At this time, the clock came and said with a smile:

"Well, since everyone is here to hunt for treasures, and now all the difficulties and dangers have come, I guess this is the inheritance place of the tomb owner. If you have anything to say, it's better to wait until we get there!"

Naturally, everyone had no objections to this, and immediately decided to set off together, walking along this secret underground passage deep underground.

This secret passage was extremely ordinary, and there were no traps in the middle. After walking for about half a stick of incense, the front suddenly became clear.

All I saw was a magnificent underground hall.

This hall is about tens of feet square, and there is a huge statue of an old man in the middle.

This old man has an odd face, a tall and thin figure, a sheathed long sword hanging on his waist, and a jade compass in his hand. He is staring at the path of everyone with all his energy at the moment.

On his shoulders, there is a black kid crawling. The kid has a naughty head and two eyes that are very smart. So even though Liang Yan knew it was just a statue, he had the illusion that it was a living thing.

But what the old man stepped on was a big flying bird. It's just that this big bird has sharp edges and corners. It doesn't look like a real fairy bird, but more like a machine beast.

"The statue of the old man in the middle seems familiar?"

Ji Lai turned around and asked tentatively.

At this time, Meng Qi also frowned slightly. Apparently she agreed with Ji Lai's words, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

"Isn't this the person in the portrait we saw when we first entered the cemetery?" Liang Yan suddenly said: "It's just that we couldn't see his face at all at that time. He didn't show it to us until we got here. real body."

"Sure enough, it's him!" Ji Lai looked again attentively, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"It seems that this is the owner of the tomb here. It's just that this little girl is ignorant and doesn't know this person's name." Meng Qi also added.

"Ahem, it doesn't matter who the owner of the tomb is!" Li Huayang, who had been following him silently, suddenly said: "We are here to hunt for treasures, not to pay homage to our ancestors."

Then he said to Meng Qi with a flattering expression:

"The four forks in front must correspond to the four inheritances of the tomb owner here. Seniors have advanced cultivation, so they should be selected first!"

After being reminded by him, everyone looked behind the statue.

I saw four forks dozens of feet away.

And above these four forks, there is a line of small characters written on each of them, which are "Tiangong Road", "Shenji Road", "Evil Ghost Road" and "Testing Sword Road".

"Haha, you, a junior, are really good at talking."

Meng Qi looks like an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. At this moment, she is addressing Li Huayang, an octogenarian, as her junior. This kind of scene is simply shocking in the secular world, but in the world of cultivation, it is extremely ordinary. But that's it.

Li Huayang said with a flattering smile:

"Senior has extraordinary magical powers. The inheritance here should be inherited by the senior. However, since the tomb owner divided the inheritance into four parts, it is obvious that one person cannot have both. I can only ask the senior to choose first, and I will choose the later ones."

"Haha! Then I'm not welcome!"

Meng Qi chuckled, and suddenly patted the storage bag on her waist, and saw a yellow metal ball flying out from it, twisting and deforming in mid-air, making a clicking sound.

When the ball landed, it turned into a fat ostrich. Meng Qi tiptoed and jumped onto the bird's back.

The ostrich looked up to the sky and let out a cry, then exerted force with its feet and turned into a streak of yellow smoke, rushing straight into the "Tiangong Road".

Everyone turned around and saw that at the entrance of the tunnel that day, after Meng Qi entered, a blue light curtain lit up, isolating everyone.

Obviously, each inheritance path can only be entered by one person.
