Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 27: Looking
Sunset Valley is located in the Taicang Mountains in the east of Li State.
The Taicang Mountains are continuous and vast in territory. They are a natural barrier between Li State and Wenxin. The Sunset Valley is located to the west of Taicang. Looking from a distance, every sunset, the valley will be filled with red clouds. The sky is filled with the sky, as if the sun is setting into the valley, so it is called the Sunset Valley, and the red glow of the setting sun is also a scene of Tai Cang.
There is a cave in a hill thirty miles away from Sunset Valley.
A young man was lying on the big stone slab in the cave. It was the man in black who had fought with Tang Jie and pretended to be a disciple of the Bone Sect.
His chest was opened, revealing the beating heart inside. Wang Juemie took two thin needles and picked out the gold sand from the young man's heart bit by bit. The stone bowl next to it has been covered with a layer of fine gold sand.
It is not easy to find these gold sands. Every time the fine needle passes through the heart, the young man's body will tremble in pain. His body is restrained and the blood will drain out. If it weren't for a group of people not far away More than a dozen junior disciples from Qijue Sect were taking turns to input spiritual energy and elixir into him, but they were afraid that this person would have died long ago.
Even so, under the torture day after day, this man became deformed and his life was dying.
Lying on the stone bed, the young man trembled and said: "Elder brother..."
"Hold on, Junior Brother Li!" Wang Juemie said without raising his head: "I will definitely save you."
Junior Brother Li had a smile on his face: "It's useless... Senior Brother... I'm like this... even if I can be saved... I'll probably... be useless..." "Nonsense, your priest brother Huang Quan asked back then, when he used his body as a battlefield and his body almost fell apart, didn't I still save him? Yes, he still has some troubles that have not been eliminated, but who dares to underestimate him because of this? Senior brother will not Give up on you, believe me, senior brother, when we finish this job, all the senior brothers will be rich, and you will definitely be stronger than before!" Wang Juemie said in a deep voice.
Tears flowed from Junior Brother Li's eyes, and he shook his head: "Senior Brother... I believe in you... but I don't... believe in myself... I can't hold on anymore..."
Wang Juemie's whole body trembled. He realized something and suddenly roared: "No, you have to hold on, Li Chun, you can't die, you **** can't die!"
But Junior Brother Li's eyes gradually became distracted.
He looked feebly at the top of the cliff above his head and murmured: "It hurts... I'm finally relieved... Senior brother... I miss home so much..."
As he spoke, he slowly closed his eyes and never opened them again.
"No!" Wang Juemie roared angrily.
He punched the mountain wall next to him with a powerful force, and the entire mountain seemed to shake slightly.
However, no matter how angry he was, his junior brother still died after all.
He knew that his junior brother was actually killed by him, because if he had not tried to save him, Li Chun would not have died from his injuries and would have only been tossed on the sick bed.
Precisely because he could not watch his junior brother endure the torture, and because he did not accept Tang Jie's methods, he worked hard to save Li Chun.
Li Chun died, and he also failed.
In the first confrontation between two opponents who had not yet met, Wang Juemie was completely defeated.
Wang Jue was angry and painful, not only because of the death of his junior brother, but also because of the shame of failure.
Since his debut, he has never felt such humiliation.
He slowly stood up and walked out of the cave.
Mu Yi shouted: "Elder brother..."
Wang Juemie raised his hand to stop what he was about to say.
The hands were blood red.
He said: "Contact the local government office to collect Li Chun's body and send it back to his hometown for burial. Everyone else should rest first. The day after tomorrow is the Sunset Valley transaction. We will talk about anything until then."
Although he was angry, what he said at this moment was extremely calm, as if he was not the one who was furious before and shook the mountains and the ground with his punch.
A junior brother already said: "Senior Brother, what about Tang Jie?"
"Tang Jie?" Wang Juemie's eyes finally flashed with light: "Ignore him, he will come to us on his own."
"Himself?" Everyone was stunned.
Wang Juemie said calmly: "The bandit robbery was too weird. Although we searched everywhere at that time, there are so many strange people in the world with special abilities, and it is not uncommon for them to have a way to hide it from our eyes. I have a feeling, This matter should be related to Tang Jie. If this is true, he may have obtained our information, and Tang Jie may appear in the battle the day after tomorrow."
Everyone was horrified when they heard this: "If Tang Jie really knew about it, would they also attract people from the Xiyue Sect?"
A Tang Jie is not terrible, but the Xiyue Sect behind him has a different meaning.
Wang Juemie just looked at his blood-red fists and murmured: "Whoever comes, I will greet them with my fists... I will just kill them!"
——————————————
In the sky above Sunset Valley, a goshawk is flying.
A mountain rat tiptoed in the valley and fell into the eyes of the goshawk.
The goshawk made a low circle in the air, then swooped down, grabbing the mountain rat with its talons.
The sudden attack frightened the mountain rat, and it instinctively kicked its legs wildly. With its strength, it was naturally impossible to push away the goshawk, but the moment it kicked the goshawk, a ray of light came from the goshawk. Flashed across his body.
The next moment, the goshawk had turned into pieces of light and disappeared in the wind.
The mountain rat, which was freed from its restraints, rolled on the ground, looked around in horror, and then went back into the hole. It is estimated that after being frightened, it would not dare to come out for a while.
On the hilltop in the distance, Tang Jie sighed and rubbed his sore eyebrows with his fingers.
Such long-distance control was a heavy burden for Tang Jie.
Unfortunately, despite this, he still failed to find out the mystery of the Sunset Valley Formation.
To be precise, he doesn't even dare to confirm whether there is a large formation in Sunset Valley.
No matter how he tried, Sunset Valley didn't show anything special. It looked like an ordinary valley.
In order to test various places in the valley, Tang Jie did not let go of even small creatures such as mountain rats in the valley, but unfortunately he still did not find any clues.
Does it mean that they really don’t plan to use the geographical advantage and magic circle to deal with the Shimen sect?
Tang Jie didn't believe it.
No matter how strong Wang Juemie is, there is no way he can fight against Tianxin. The only way for them to defeat the weak is through formation. The fact that they can't be found at the moment only shows that Wang Jue Mie and the others are cautious. After the Shimen Sect learned that they were going to trade in Sunset Valley, they might not send people to investigate in advance.
Therefore, the secrecy of this formation must be excellent.
In addition, the cost of this formation should not be too high. After all, Wang Juejie and the others were not the Qijue Sect, but a union of more than a dozen disciples with limited capital.
Finally, the power of the magic array must be sufficient. To deal with Tianxin, at least a fifth-grade formation is needed.
Tang Jie went through almost all the fifth-grade or sixth-grade magic formations he knew in his mind, but unfortunately none of them fit the current situation. It can only be said that the Qijue Sect is indeed the sect that is best at the Four Immortal Arts. Tang Jie was considered to be extremely good at formations. Faced with the formations set up by this group of disciples of the Seven Jue Sect, he couldn't even find them.
From yesterday to now, Tang Jie has been searching for a day, but he has not been able to find the location of the formation. No matter how he tries, he cannot activate the formation. If you can't find the formation, you can't make plans. It's hard to prepare in advance, let alone use it, even if you find it late.
We have been delayed for one day, and there is still two more days to go before the Battle of Sunset Valley.
At this moment, even Tang Jie was anxious.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Jie's fingertips shone with light, and gradually turned into a goshawk again and flew towards Sunset Valley. Ever since he realized that copying techniques could be used for reconnaissance, he has now become more and more comfortable in using copying techniques to come up with various variations.
It's a pity that although Goshawk is good, he can't find the formation.
With the help of the goshawk's vision, Tang Jie looked down at the earth, which was full of greenery, but there was no trace of the formation.
While feeling depressed, the jade pendant around his waist suddenly moved.
Tang Jie looked away and looked down, but it was Xu Miaoran who sent the message at this time.
"Hey, Master Tang, what are you doing?"
Since Tang Jie was promoted to the mortal world, Xu Miaoran always teased him one by one, Master Tang. At first, Tang Jie was not used to it, but he got used to it as time went by.
Seeing her sending the letter at this moment, he replied: "Wang Juemie made an appointment with the Shimen Sect to trade in Sunset Valley. I am looking for a possible magic circle."
He occasionally communicated with Xu Miaoran these days, so the matters here were not hidden from Xu Miaoran.
"Found it?" Xu Miaoran asked. The girl's handwriting is very big. Three characters are a thousand-mile talisman.
Tang Jie replied: "I've been looking for it all day and still can't find it. I've never heard that a magic circle can be hidden to such an extent."
"Is it possible that the arrangement was not perfect, and a few steps were deliberately missed to prevent the formation from being activated, so that it would not be activated in advance and people would notice it."
"I have considered this possibility, but I have searched all over the valley and haven't found even a single piece of spiritual material used to set up the formation."
"Wait a moment." Xu Miaoran sent the message, and then there was no more words.
After a long time, Xu Miaoran received the news: "I went to ask my father. My father said that unless it is a large formation with the direct purpose of concealment, it is impossible for ordinary formations to reach such a point. There must be There are clues to be found. If you can't find them, the problem may lie outside the formation, and you need to think outside the problem."
As a true king, Xu Guanghua is not good at formations, but he is knowledgeable and has experienced countless things.
Since he said that such a formation is impossible, it is basically impossible.
"Think outside the problem...Think outside the problem..." Tang Jie murmured to himself as he looked at the message sent by the Qianli Communication Talisman.
The conversation Wang Juejie and the others had yesterday flashed through his mind, as well as their expressions when they spoke.
Suddenly Tang Jie realized something was wrong.
Since Sunset Valley is the place where Wang Juemie and the others decided to ambush, how important is it? Why did they say it so easily?
Although Tang Jie has tried hard to make amends regarding the robbery as a bandit, even he himself knows that there are many doubts about the matter. It is impossible for the other party to completely trust him. He just hopes to take the opportunity to lure the other party out, and then Find clues in the other person's words to reveal the truth.
I just didn’t expect that the other party would be so cooperative and even reveal the Sunset Valley deal three days later.
Now that I think about it more carefully, the other party was already a little too careless.
Unless...
"Damn it, I was fooled!" Tang Jie cursed and stood up suddenly.
At that moment, he suddenly understood that the decisive battle site decided by Wang Juemie and the others was not in Sunset Valley at all.
Sunset Valley has been a cover from the beginning, and its purpose is to confuse the Shimen Sect.
I believe that the Shimen Sect will also feel that if the transaction location is in the Sunset Valley, then they must be careful to guard against people from the Qijue Sect setting up a large formation to attack them in the Sunset Valley, so they send people to survey the Sunset Valley in advance.
Of course, they won't find anything.
Because that is not the ambush point set by the Qijue Sect at all.
They set an ambush halfway!
When he thought of this, Tang Jie took out the map and began to look at the only way to go from Hanmen Pass to Sunset Valley.
Finally, Tang Jie's finger stopped at an unknown valley.
The scope of this nameless valley is very small and is located on one side of the road. Because there are mountains blocking the road in front, any convoy must pass through this valley. But if people from the Shimen Sect come to explore the Sunset Valley and fly all the way, they don't need to pass through this unknown valley. In this way, they will naturally avoid the attention of the cultivators. Coupled with certain concealment techniques, it is indeed very possible to hide it from everyone.
When the real people of the Shimen Sect focused their attention on Sunset Valley, they would not have thought that an ambush would have begun on the road.
Thinking of this, Tang Jie was also shocked.
"It's really a good plan!" Even if the goshawk has not yet flown, Tang Jie is basically sure that the magic circle he is looking for must be here!
"Hey, why aren't you talking?" Xu Miaoran's handwriting came again on the jade pendant, obviously wondering why Tang Jie suddenly ignored him.
Tang Jie smiled and wrote back: "I've been stupid all day long, and I finally figured it out thanks to the baby's advice. Be good and give me a kiss."
Messages were sent back quickly: "Shameless, obscene, bah bah bah!"
Tang Jie could imagine Xu Miaoran's angry and ashamed look on the other side, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and replied: "Yes, I am just a shameless and dirty person, how do you like it?"
As soon as I asked this question, there was silence on the other end.
After a long time, Xu Miaoran replied: "Wang Juemie is powerful, and Master Tianxin is unpredictable. If you can't defeat him, don't force it. Although cultivation of immortality requires resources, you need a life to enjoy it. If you really urgently need help, You can also tell me the money. I know that you are arrogant and will not easily accept charity from others, so it is okay to take it as a loan."
Although there was no direct answer to Tang Jie's words, the words in the reply were sincere and fully revealed his friendship.
Tang Jie also felt warm in his heart when he saw this, and replied: "I know that this adventure is indeed because it requires a lot of money to do something, but after this is done, it will be much easier. From now on, The sky is wide for me to fly, so I no longer have to take risks."
"In that case, then everything is up to you. I'm waiting for good news from you. If you have anything, you can ask me. Even if I don't know, I can ask your father for you. It's good to have a true gentleman to answer your questions. Oh."
Tang Jie smiled: "Then I'm not polite. It just so happens that there are some issues in cultivation that I don't quite understand recently..."
Back and forth, they talked a lot, and they didn’t stop until the goshawk flew over the nameless valley.
Although the valley was lonely and nothing seemed out of the ordinary, Tang Jie, who was proficient in formations, noticed that there was something extraordinary about this place after just a little exploration. ~IndoMTL.com~ The magic circle that I have been looking for is indeed here.
Under the wise eyes of the Celestial Eye, the hidden mysterious veil was gradually unveiled, and the face of the formation was revealed bit by bit.
"It turns out that this formation... is indeed very calculating, courageous and ambitious."
Looking at the formation from a distance, Tang Jie couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Now that he knew what formation the opponent had set up, Tang Jie also knew what he should do next.
After thinking about it briefly, Tang Jie had a plan in mind. He took out a talisman and wrote a few words to light it up.
This time the news came to Wei Tianchong.
After Wei Tianchong, who had already returned to Canglong Mansion, saw the news, he also took out a piece of talisman and lit it on fire.
In the Lingzhou branch, Shi Meng looked at the message, took out a bunch of talisman papers, and lit them one by one. The news was like lightning, and it spread rapidly throughout Wenxin's country...
