Chapter 263 Canyon Passage

Another day passed in a blink of an eye.

Outside the Fire Phoenix Forbidden Zone, the faces of the five Jindan cultivators of Xuantian Pavilion were gloomy and ugly.

"It seems that only the five of us can force our way through this time." The cultivator surnamed Che looked up at the towering giant mountain that was so high that the top of the mountain could not be seen at all, and the flame belt surrounding it halfway up the mountain, with a solemn expression.

From a distance, the flame belt reflected a phantom of a fire phoenix circling and flying inside, exuding ancient vicissitudes and domineering.

"It can only be like this!" The woman in white palace clothes nodded solemnly and looked up at a canyon crack leading directly into the mountain.

The Fire Phoenix Mountain is unknown how many feet high and is in a ring shape.

The side surrounded by the lava abyss is extremely steep, full of cliffs, and bare. People cannot fly more than a hundred feet. Not only will they be attacked by the phantom of the fire phoenix in the flames halfway up the mountain, but they will also be oppressed by an extremely strong magnetic field force, and they cannot fly up and climb anymore.

Therefore, the only way to enter the mountain is to pass through the canyon crack.

After passing through the cracks in the canyon, there is a basin and a relatively flat hillside around it. The magnetic field force on the hillside is relatively weaker above 100 meters.

However, even if it weakens, generally speaking, outsiders rarely cross a height of 300 meters, and rarely enter the central area of ​​the basin.

For them, it is a forbidden area in a forbidden area, which is extremely dangerous.

There are many places where high-level fourth-level monsters live, and it is even rumored that there are fifth-level monsters.

Once you enter that area, you may accidentally break into the territory of a fourth-level high-level monster, or even win the jackpot and enter the lair of a fifth-level monster.

Not only that, the various forces in those places are relatively disordered, there will be space cracks, and even some ancient restrictions remain.

If you accidentally step into the ancient restrictions, there is still a glimmer of hope to get out. If you are accidentally involved in the space cracks, it is estimated that you will never have to think about coming back in this life.

"I hope the five of us will have good luck and will not encounter high-level fourth-level monsters when we pass through the canyon passage." The thin monk with a high bun said in a deep voice.

"It's a pity that Qi Shixin and his five companions didn't come. Otherwise, if they were ahead to explore the way, we would have more room for maneuver." The monk surnamed Luan gritted his teeth and said.

"That's right, five pieces of the Heaven-covering Tokens were wasted in vain!" The fat on the face of the monk surnamed Du shook and twisted slightly.

"Okay, don't say these words anymore. Everyone should pay attention and pass through the canyon passage as quickly as possible. Otherwise, once more monsters are alarmed and they are blocked in the narrow passage, there will be no way to escape!" The monk surnamed Che said coldly.

He is the most powerful and pure among the five.

"Yes, Senior Brother Che!" The four people looked stern and responded in unison.

Soon, the five of them sacrificed their defensive magic weapons to protect their bodies to prevent sudden attacks by monsters.

At the same time, each of them also held a Xuan Geng flying sword and several talismans in their hands.

When the five people approached the canyon passage, a bird cry like piercing gold and splitting rocks suddenly sounded in the sky.

Halfway up the mountain, the phantom of the fire phoenix in the flame belt gently flapped its wings.

Suddenly, a flame curtain rushed down from the mountainside like a waterfall, hanging in front of the canyon passage, covering it tightly.

On the flame curtain, there were ancient and simple runes similar to those on the mountain god's scepter, which emerged on it and turned into fire swords that broke through the air and killed the five people.

"Use your own life magic weapon to resist the fire sword, and at the same time use the Xuan Geng flying sword, the five swords will be combined into one, breaking the flame curtain restriction!" Brother Che shouted immediately when he saw this.

The shout was still echoing in the air, and ten magic weapons had already shot out.

Five different magic weapons each shone brilliantly, flew forward, and blocked the flying swords that were killing them.

The five Xuan Geng flying swords merged into a huge flying sword, slashing fiercely at the flame curtain.

"Boom!"

Fireballs shot out in all directions, as gorgeous as fireworks.

The flame curtain vibrated violently, and a crack appeared faintly, but it closed like flowing water in an instant.

The faces of the five people changed slightly.

"Come again!" Senior Brother Che shouted again.

The huge Xuan Geng flying sword kept slashing at the flame curtain.

The flame curtain kept cracking and closing in an instant.

"This won't work. It seems that you brothers need to spend a few talismans to delay the time for the cracks to close." After more than ten swords, Senior Brother Che frowned.

The other four people frowned slightly after hearing this.

Every talisman they carried was a high-level boutique, even a top-level talisman, which was very valuable and limited in number.

They were reluctant to use it along the way, so that they could use it to compete for opportunities and save their lives after entering the restricted area.

As a result, they had to spend a few talismans before entering the restricted area, which cast a shadow on their mood and secretly annoyed Qi Shixin and the other five people for breaking their promise.

If they came as promised, they would only need to spend some of their true essence and mana to break through this level.

Now they have to waste precious talismans that are getting less and less every time they are used in the ancient ruins.

But now that things have come to this point, the five people have no choice.

Soon, taking advantage of the cracks that appeared, more than a dozen talismans shot out and sank into the cracks, turning into various attacks.

The cracks were finally opened, but they could not be closed immediately.

The five people passed through the cracks as fast as lightning.

Passing through the cracks in the fire curtain, what appeared in front of them were steep cliffs on both sides that were so high that they could not see the top, and a canyon passage in the middle that could not see the end.

This steep cliff was different from the outside. There were many unknown vegetation on it, and there were protruding rocks on the cliffs. There were large caves with firelight, and no one knew what kind of monsters were hidden in them.

Not only that, there were flocks of monster birds hovering over the canyon passage.

The five people had just gotten used to the light in the canyon passage a little bit, and before they had time to carefully explore the surrounding environment, seven or eight demon birds had already swooped down from the sky with a roar.

"It's the third-level demon bird Fire Cloud Eagle. Don't worry about them, and don't kill them, lest the bloody smell attract more Fire Cloud Eagles and other demon beasts. Just rush forward." Senior Brother Che glanced at the seven or eight demon birds swooping down overhead and made a prompt decision.

"Understood!" Everyone nodded in awe.

There was a brilliant light shining from them, forming various defensive layers such as clouds, shields, fire pythons, and armor.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The eagle claws with flames grabbed down, and the huge fire wings flapped fiercely. The fireball with a diameter of about a foot roared down, causing the defense magic weapon to bloom with brilliant light, mixed with sparks flying everywhere, as gorgeous as fireworks.

The Fire Cloud Eagle's attack was in vain, and the defensive magic weapon instead rebounded, causing the blood and qi to be turbulent, and the eagle claws and wings were painful and numb.

Nearly ten Fire Cloud Eagles attacked a few times, then flew away in anger.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.

Fire Cloud Eagles are used to living in groups and have a strong desire for revenge.

If they had not understood the habits of the Fire Cloud Eagle just now and thought it was only a third-level demon bird, they would have killed it at will. It would not have been so easy for them to get rid of the Fire Cloud Eagle's attack.

But just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they heard the barking of dogs coming from the cliff and echoing in the canyon.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

As soon as the barking sounded, everyone felt their souls shaken and their heads ached, as if the barking sound had directly penetrated their heads.

Everyone was startled and hurriedly looked up at the cliff.

I saw a cave on the dark red cliff on the left hand side, with four dark red lights shooting out from it.

These four dark red lights seemed to have come out from the depths of the earth, getting brighter and brighter.

Soon, two ferocious tiger heads appeared at the entrance of the cliff cave.

Then, the two tiger-headed monsters barked at the five people.

The five people suddenly felt a headache and quickly focused their minds and sealed their ears with magic power.

At this moment, the tiger-headed monster rolled up a gust of fishy wind and flew down from the cliff cave towards the five people.

This monster looks like a tiger but has a cow's tail, and exudes a cruel and bloodthirsty aura.

"It's a pig!"

"Kill!"

The faces of the five people changed drastically, and then their eyes were fierce and murderous. Without hesitation, they pointed at the Xuan Geng flying sword, and the magic power in their bodies surged out.

The five Xuan Geng flying swords made a sword chanting sound, and transformed into sword lights, trapping the two pig beasts in mid-air.

Pig, one of the ancient prehistoric beasts.

It is said that they like cannibalism the most.

The pig beasts here are just the mixed-blood descendants of the prehistoric pig tribe, and they are far less powerful than their ancestors, just like the physical strength of the human race is far inferior to that of the prehistoric human race ancestors, and even the blood sea is rarely opened up by anyone.

But the pig beasts left in this world still inherited the habit of their ancestors to eat humans.

Therefore, in the Great Xuanyu, once a pig beast is found somewhere, the various immortal cultivation forces must immediately send people to encircle and suppress it to prevent it from growing.

Otherwise, the human race in its living area will inevitably be devoured countless times.

Therefore, when the five people saw that it was a pig beast, they knew that they could not scare it away like they scared away the Fire Cloud Eagle.

Even repelling it was useless.

They have already smelled the breath of the human race, and even if they are temporarily repelled, they will inevitably follow like hyenas.

So if they are not killed, they are a danger lurking behind them all the time.

The power of the Xuan Geng Sword Formation is indeed extraordinary.

Both pigs were level 4 intermediate monsters, but they could not stop the five people from setting up a sword formation to strangle them.

After a while, both pigs were killed.

None of the five people were injured, but they only consumed some mana, and they also gained two monster cores and excellent refining materials.

But no one had a happy look on their faces.

On the contrary, all five people were in a heavy mood.

In the past, they only knew the dangers of the Fire Phoenix Forbidden Zone from the elders in the sect and some files and records, but after all, they only heard it, and coupled with their own strong strength, they couldn't help but disagree in their hearts and thought that they were exaggerating.

Now, they have just entered the canyon passage and have been attacked one after another, especially the appearance of the two pigs, which makes them smell a strong breath of danger.

"Let's go!" Senior Brother Che held a piece of top-grade spirit stone in his hand and ordered in a deep voice.

This place is dangerous, and it is not the time to be stingy with top-grade spirit stones.

Even if the mana consumed in this battle is not much, it must be replenished as soon as possible.

One day later.

Five monks rushed out from the other end of the canyon passage.

They were the Jindan monks from Xuantian Pavilion.

All five of them had disheveled hair and looked embarrassed. The short monk named Du had his entire left arm cut off at the shoulder by some sharp weapon.

And the monk Luan with phoenix eyes had a shocking claw wound on his left chest, blood and flesh were blurred, and the white ribs were visible.

——

"Hey, there is a canyon passage here!" When the five monks Che rushed out of the passage and appeared in the restricted area basin, Xia Daoming appeared in front of the canyon passage in a dusty state, with a look of surprise on his face.
