Chapter 1023 Worry-Free Valley
In the Wuyou Valley, you can see the fairy spirit surrounding you, the mountains in the distance are majestic and steep, and among the misty clouds, there are thousands of peaks competing for power, and there are also goshawks gliding over, making high-pitched eagle whistles, coming between the valleys. The reverberations are endless and lasting.
Looking closer, there are swarms of bees and butterflies, birds are chirping, flowers are vying for beauty, and there is a waterfall on the cliff with flying beads splashing jade, forming a pool below, and the pool water overflows and forms streams flowing through the forest. , I saw apes, elk, deer and other animals drinking water on the shore. These small animals were not surprised when they met people.
"Brother Wuchen, this...is this the Worry-free Valley?"
Leng Baihu came to the valley and was attracted by the wonders of the valley. Such a beautiful and beautiful place makes people feel like they are in a fairyland, purifying the depths of their souls and forgetting the worries of the world.
Could it be that the legend is actually true? This is a fairyland left over from ancient times, far away from worldly troubles. Real immortals once passed by here...
Leng Baihu looked at the wonderful scenery in the valley. For a moment, he seemed to have forgotten all the worldly worries outside. What does the world's troubles have to do with me? There is a pot of wine, and you can drink drunkenly among the flowers. Three thousand prosperity is not as good as three lives of great dreams.
Xiao Chen also never thought that although this Worry-free Valley is in the mortal world, it has an otherworldliness. Suddenly, he thought of the words of the senior in Suzhou. In the north of Yuyuan, there is a valley without worries and flowers without worries. , open once every thousand years. ❊✻
Although this valley is strange and strange, where is the worry-free flower that blooms once in a thousand years?
"Brother Wuchen...look!"
Leng Baihu pointed to the distance ahead, and saw lakes as clear as mirrors surrounded by green mountains. They were originally green and clear lakes, but now under the sunrise, the lake surface was as red as fire, like fire. It is the fire of life, everlasting.
Attracted by the spectacular scenery in front of him, Leng Baihu seemed to have forgotten that the purpose of going through so much trouble to find the Worry-free Valley was to help Xiao Chen find the worry-free flower that was said to bloom once every thousand years.
He came to the lakes and felt the spiritual power between heaven and earth. He wanted to shout loudly, but he was afraid of disturbing the peace and tranquility of this valley for thousands of years.
"It's been a thousand years, and no one has set foot in this valley, right?"
Leng Baihu felt very novel and walked around the valley. He had never thought that he would find such a paradise on earth in his lifetime. Looking back, he had been to many places in the past and had been to many places. It is a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, but compared with the worry-free valley in front of me, it is like a world separated by immortals.
At this time, Xiao Chen was carefully sensing the flow of spiritual power in the valley. This Worry-Free Valley was indeed extraordinary, and he had noticed it from the moment he entered.
The spiritual energy in this valley is extremely abundant, as if all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth are condensed here. No wonder such a large area of Xishu has thin spiritual energy, and gradually became a mortal place over time. It turns out that it is not that Xishu has insufficient spiritual energy, but most of it. All the spiritual energy is concentrated in this valley.
Just like a large formation, this Worry-free Valley is where the formation's eye is, condensing all the spiritual energy in other places...
At this moment, an electric light flashed in Xiao Chen's heart, and he suddenly thought of something. Starting from decades ago, the entire Immortal Ancient Land suddenly poured in a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, even more than ten times more than before, so that many people's cultivation levels improved by leaps and bounds. But why is this?
Moreover, he always has a feeling that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the entire Xianyuan Ancient Land seems to be slowly gathering towards Xuanqing Mountain, making people unconscious and unable to feel it.
Thinking back to that night when he visited Xuan Qing at night, he met Qian Yu Nichang at the foot of Tianshu Peak, and Qian Yu Nichang told him that Xuan Qing Gate hides a huge secret in the world. What exactly is this secret...
Could it be that the entire Xuanqing Mountain is also the center of a large formation?
Such a strange idea had just sprouted in his mind, and then was interrupted by Leng Baihu who suddenly ran over, "Brother Wuchen! Brother Wuchen! Look, what did I catch?"
Xiao Chen came back to his senses and saw that he was holding a snow-white fox in his hand. The fox's hair was like snow. It should be a snow fox living in the snow-capped mountains. How could it appear in Wuyou Valley?
"Ha ha!"
Leng Baihu laughed and said, "I, Leng Baihu, actually caught a snow mountain white fox in the valley today, haha!"
"Everything has animism, be careful not to hurt it."
Xiao Chen took the white fox from his hand and said, "The fox is the most cunning. Its leg bone is injured, otherwise how could you catch it."
"ah……"
Leng Baihu scratched his head and said, "No wonder when I passed by just now, I saw it lying on the ground motionless. I thought that the little animals in this valley were not afraid of people..."
"kindness."
Xiao Chen nodded slightly and gently pressed the fractured part of the fox's front leg. The fox immediately hissed and bit his hand.
"It, it bites you..."
Leng Baihu was stunned for a moment, but Xiao Chen did not let go of his hand. With a slight exertion of his fingers, he immediately connected the fox's leg bone, and then slowly lowered it.
After a while, the white fox stood up and ran into the forest. The cold white fox turned around and saw a few spots of red on the tiger's mouth on Xiao Chen's hand. He was slightly surprised and said, "Brother Wuchen, your hand is bleeding." Already..."
"It doesn't matter."
Xiao Chen wiped off the blood on his hands and said, "It thought I was going to hurt it, so it bit me. If it knew I was trying to save it, it would form a grass ring in its mouth."
"this……"
Leng Baihu scratched his head and was a little confused for a moment. Xiao Chen stood up and looked into the depths of the valley, but saw the vast clouds and said, "Let's go, let's go find the Flower of Worry-free."
…
The entire Worry-Free Valley is very large, with overlapping mountains. Some places are shrouded in clouds and mist, making it impossible to control the sword and easy to get lost.
The valley is naturally divided into the outer valley and the inner valley. As the name suggests, the outer layer is the outer valley, and the inner valley is deep in the valley.
Along the way, there are flowers everywhere, and some flowers blooming on the trees, red as fire, which is a variety that cannot be seen outside. Leng Baihu looked at these red and fiery flowers on the ground and trees and said, "Worry-Free Valley, Worry-Free Flowers, could the flowers that grow in Worry-Free Valley be called Worry-Free Flowers? But it blooms once a thousand years, what does it mean..."
He walked and talked to himself endlessly, and Xiao Chen suddenly stopped. Leng Baihu saw him stop and asked, "Brother Wuchen, what's wrong?"
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at him and said "Do you remember the Qi-seeing technique I taught you?"
"Yes!"
Leng Baihu nodded vigorously and said, "I remember everything you taught me, whether it is the Qi-seeing technique or the breathing method."
"Well, calm your mind and practice the Qi-seeing technique while walking."
"Yes...Okay!"
...
The rest of the journey was finally much quieter. Xiao Chen concentrated on sensing the flow of spiritual energy in the valley. No matter what the Worry-free Flower was, he had to get to the inner valley before the people outside came in.
Although there were layers of restrictions outside the Worry-free Valley, it was difficult for ordinary people to enter, but the array eye had been destroyed before. It would not take long for everyone outside to rush in when the restrictions outside were dissipated.
When he was outside before, he noticed the man in green and the old man in purple. The cultivation of these two people was not low, and from the timid look of the three people, the status of these two people in Yunzong was also extraordinary.
The three men called the man in green "the eldest son", so he must be the disciple of Yun Daozi, the leader of the Yun Sect.
In the evening, the dusk fell and the valley gradually became dark, but it was not as gloomy as outside. Even though the night was shrouded, there was still a bright moon in the distance.
But at this moment, there was a slight vibration outside, as if it broke the tranquility of the valley. The birds in the woods also fluttered out, dropping a few colorful feathers.
"What's going on..."
Leng Baihu suddenly became alert, but the vibration only lasted for a while and then stopped. Xiao Chen looked outside the valley and said, "Those people are trying to break the forbidden formation."
"Then..."
Leng Baihu's expression tightened slightly, and he looked into the depths of the valley again, turned around, looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Then let's find a way to get to the inner valley quickly..."
"Yes."
Xiao Chen nodded, said no more, and went inside immediately. Although the two could not fly swords, they had a good light skill, especially Xiao Chen. Under the bright moon, even the cliffs were like flat ground.
At midnight, the silver moon was like a plate, illuminating the entire valley. The two came to a cliff top, on which there was a cave. Leng Baihu's internal force was too much, and he could not continue to perform light skills. After all, he was a mortal body.
"Tonight, let's rest here for the night."
Xiao Chen sat down. Now he was also a "mortal". Without that proud cultivation, he would eventually be unable to hold on if he kept consuming his internal energy.
"Yeah!"
Leng Baihu nodded and immediately sat down cross-legged, practicing to even out his internal energy, but not long after, he heard a "gurgling" sound from his stomach.
"Uh..."
Although he had been hungry for a long time, Leng Baihu was embarrassed to say it. He scratched his head awkwardly. In fact, Xiao Chen felt a little hungry after running around for days and not having eaten today.
In the past, when he was in Wuyutian, he did not feel hungry like a mortal, but during this time in the mortal world, he often felt hungry.
"Here."
He took out a few large fruits from his sleeves. Leng Baihu's eyes lit up and he asked curiously, "Huh? Where did Brother Wuchen get these fruits?"
"Just now I saw a fruit tree on the cliff, so I picked a few."
"Hehe, Brother Wuchen is still thoughtful..."
...
That night, the moon was bright and clear. Xiao Chen sat on the edge of the cliff, facing the cold wind. He thought of seeing Xiao Meng'er during the day. That trace of the breath of the holy realm must be correct. It seems that Xiao Meng'er has really comprehended the mystery of the holy realm... In the future, it is inevitable to become a saint, and it is the two holy realms of Taoism and martial arts.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen couldn't help feeling a little cold in his heart. He really underestimated this woman at the beginning. This woman's talent can only be described in two words: terrible.
Even Qianyu Nishang, if she hadn't cultivated the three flowers to the top of the head, I'm afraid she would be a little inferior to her.
The most terrifying thing about Xiao Meng'er is not her talent, nor her dual cultivation of Taoism and martial arts, but her heart that is always hard to see through, like a bottomless abyss that no one can fathom.
Her ruthlessness, decisiveness, and scheming are also really scary, just like the time when Xiao Youming was under the Yellow Spring Valley. In order to survive alone, she decisively pushed herself and Ziyuan to the god and demon. If the god and demon had not woken up later, I am afraid that time, she and Ziyuan would really die there.
Even today, whenever Xiao Chen thinks of the life-and-death experience underground, he still feels a bit scared. He secretly swears that if he meets this woman again in the future, he will never take it lightly, and he must not believe what she says. This woman is not only powerful in cultivation, and she will definitely be the best choice to lead the Xiao family in the future.
The night deepened a little, and the cold wind under the cliff was whistling.
Xiao Chen stared at the mountain covered by the night. What did Xiao Meng'er do in Wuyou Valley this time? Probably the legendary Wuyou Flower.
In the legend of Western Shu, the Wuyou Flower blooms once every thousand years, which can make people immortal and can make people transcend the mortal world and become immortals. It is inevitable that it will attract cultivators to go there.
And this time, so many people came here. Could it be that they all came for the Wuyou Flower? Or something else? No, could it be that Xiao Meng'er was...
"Brother Wuchen!"
Suddenly, a voice interrupted his thoughts. Leng Baihu came up from behind, holding two washed fruits in his hand. He smiled and said, "It's so cold on the cliff, why are you still sitting here, Brother Wuchen? Here, I'll wash them for you..."
"Thank you."
Xiao Chen took the two fruits from him and turned around. He thought that Xiao Meng'er must have another purpose for coming to Wuyou Valley this time. If her purpose conflicts with his, would she... want to kill him?
No, that's not right...
At this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly thought of something. This woman is good at scheming. If she has a hidden purpose, she must not let people find out. To do it quietly, she can only draw everyone's attention to herself...
"Brother Wuchen... what's wrong with you? Why don't you eat..." Leng Baihu saw that his expression suddenly became strange and asked.
Xiao Chen came back to his senses and looked at the cave behind him. Seeing the fire flickering in the cave, he said solemnly, "It may not be safe here. Go and bury the fire. We will leave here immediately."
"Ah... OK, OK!"
Leng Baihu was stunned for a moment, and without asking any more questions, he bit half of the fruit in his hand and immediately moved a big stone into the cave.
The cold wind was blowing, and Xiao Chen looked at the direction he came from. At this moment, even the mountains covered by the night seemed to suddenly become hideous and terrifying, and there was a bit of ruthless coldness in the wind.
He was still too careless. With Xiao Meng'er's skills and Xiao Ling'er beside her, how could she not come in? Maybe at this time, she is already in this valley...
And soon, other people will also enter this valley, so next, I am afraid there will be a life-and-death contest.
