C60 The Secret of the Undead Cave

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight pierced the horizon, everyone bid their farewells. Shen Jingyang and Yuyin carried on their mission as the Dark Concealed Bow; Wang Qingchuan also returned to the Spirit World's capital, Ling Chuan; Yun Jiuchang and Gu Xueluo headed westward to the Concourse of the Underworld.

The sun had risen and they were on their way. The late autumn chill gradually grew thicker. The autumn wind blew against their long hair and clothes, emitting a fierce sound. It was mixed together with the autumn wind's cries, causing people to feel an inexplicable excitement and yearning.

The morning sunlight shined warmly on the Dark Cold Palace. After a month of seclusion in the inner palace, Candle Jiu Yin finally left the palace. He stood silently on the steps of the palace with his hands behind his back. His embroidered robe fluttered in the wind, and the golden lace on the sleeves of the robe shone brightly in the morning light, revealing his noble and graceful appearance.

He suddenly thought of something as his brows slightly furrowed. He quickly walked down and his embroidered robe swayed with his footsteps. It set off his heroic figure and his imposing figure.

"Master, you're finally out of the palace," Xin Xin walked out from the side, holding a bowl of White Lotus Seed Soup in her hand. The white steam rose from the soup, emitting an appetizing fragrance in the late autumn morning, "Are you feeling better …"

"What?" Sick? Who said I was sick? " Zhu Jiuyin suddenly turned around, his sharp eyes staring straight at Xin Jin. His cold and strange face sent chills down everyone's spines, "I've been training in seclusion for the past month, how dare you, a slave, speak such nonsense!"

It was beyond his imagination that such ordinary words would make his master so angry. He was so scared that his face turned blue, his eyelids drooped, and the silver bowl in his hands trembled. He was about to spill the broth when he stammered, "Jinsi deserves to die..." Jin Si had said the wrong thing. It was Jin Si's fault for saying too many words … "The master is not sick. He has been cultivating the entire time …" The trembling voice came from his throat, intermittent, trembling, as if he was on a cliff.

"Remember, for the past month, I have been cultivating, not sick. Since you dared to say something wrong, not only will I not forgive you, the Devil Ancestor will not forgive you either! Have you heard it?! "

Xin Jin had never seen Zhu Jiuyin so angry. He was scared witless by Zhu Jiuyin's ferocious expression, and didn't dare to look directly at him. He buried his head in his chest, and tremblingly said: "Master, listen … "I heard it, I won't speak carelessly …"

"Don't ask too many questions about what you don't know!" As soon as Zhu Jiu finished speaking, he swung his sleeves and released a fierce gust of wind that flew straight at Jin Si's face, and then left.

In the vast demon's palace, only the ruler shaped brows and Zhu Jiuyin were left, seemingly empty and quiet.

"It's good that you've come out, I've truly wronged you this past month." The ruler's eyebrow looked at Zhu Jiuyin, walked up to him and lightly patted his right shoulder, revealing a smile, "How is it, have you recovered from your injuries?"

"Thanks to the Devil Ancestor's concern, my injuries are no longer serious, as long as I slowly recuperate, I can recover." Zhu Jiuyin slightly straightened his back and clapped his hands together, "I didn't expect Old Daoist Xin to be so tenacious. Not only did he bitterly struggle, but he also has such a vicious palm technique."

The sword ruler turned and walked up the steps, then sat upright on the throne in front of the palace hall. Both of its hands were placed on top of the Dragon Supporting Hand, its eyes were filled with a disdainful light, as it laughed arrogantly: "Hmph! "No matter how powerful that Old Daoist Xin is, he was annihilated by our combined efforts. Back then, I had somewhat underestimated his strength. If it wasn't for that Shocking Cloud Sword in his hands, he wouldn't have had the chance to injure you."

"The Devil Ancestor is too kind, if I were to compete with him normally, I would have won within a hundred moves, but if I wanted to take his life, I would need to have a fierce battle with him," Zhu Jiuyin knew that as the most experienced prince of the Qing Qiu mountain, Foreign Dignitary Xin was still quite powerful, but he was unable to combine his strength with his aura. He frowned slightly, "Devil Ancestor, although I changed my appearance back then, I was annihilated by Jiu Tang a year ago. They will not investigate …"

At this point, Zhu Jiuyin's expression was somewhat nervous, as if he was worried that the matter would be exposed. He raised his eyes and looked at the sword ruler's brow, just like a child who could not find an answer no matter how hard he tried.

The sword ruler's eyebrow frowned, and said coldly: "So what? Are you that worried and afraid? That thousand man army has already died without any proof, so what can they find out? Furthermore, your disguise magic was passed down by my own hands, so no one would suspect anything if you put on an act. "

"At that time, Jiu Tang was also there. He stared at me with a strange gaze, he was the one who personally took care of the thousand soldiers, with his understanding of the thousand soldiers, he shouldn't have been able to see through anything, right?"

What flaws could you possibly have? I think you must have been scared by Xin Yue's palm, so why are you always so suspicious. "The longsword man heard Candle Jiu Yin's concerns and became a bit irritated," I originally wanted Jiu Tang to go to the Five Realms to train, and also to track down the whereabouts of Mu Xuejian.

The light from the palace gradually came in, scattering bits of light onto the smooth ground, bright and clear, bringing with it some light and warmth.

Zhu Jiuyin glanced at the sunlight shining in from outside the palace and asked, "Devil Ancestor, what should we do next?"

It was unknown if it was because of the warmth of the autumn sun outside the palace or because the insides were too cold, but the sword ruler eyebrows slowly rose from the Devil Ancestor's throne and walked down the steps, looking at the sunlight outside, he said sinisterly: "Once the Shocking Cloud Altar is cleared, it will deal as much of a blow to the primal chaos as it did to the fifth hidden spirit ten or so years ago. Let's temporarily hold our ground and not move, and quietly wait to see what happens. With my understanding of the Yin Scrolls, he will definitely take action. At that time, it won't be too late for us to use braking force. "

Outside the palace, the sun shone brightly in the sky. It was warm and tranquil, but there was a sudden gust of wind that ruffled the messy hair at the temples.

"The wind is blowing again in the Six Realms …" The scimitar shaped brows touched the scenery, seeming to feel something as he muttered to himself.

These few days, Xin Xin Si was being reprimanded by Zhu Jiuyin to the point of being annoyed. Zhu Jiuyin's unreasonable anger made her feel inexplicably sad. But she cared about him so much, cared about him so much, that even if she was scolded or ignored, she was still willing to do so.

At this moment, she was sitting under the vine, in a daze. Suddenly, she said, "Greetings, master. Greetings, master …" A cheerful cry disturbed her. There was no need to guess, it was definitely the Infant Dipper Magpie.

Xin Xin purposely lowered her head and spoke loudly with a slightly reprimanding tone, "Yao Yao, I've told you so many times already. You should always stay here when you're free. You're not allowed to make random noises."

Obviously, Jin Si's order didn't have any effect, the baby magpie once again called out, "Jin Si, hello …" "Nice to meet you …"

Pursing his lips into a "puchi" smile, he raised his head and stood up. He raised his hand towards the highest corner of the eaves, opened his mouth, and said, "Yao Yao, if you don't come down now, you'll be punished for not eating bugs today!"

Before she could finish her sentence, the Infant Dipper Magpie standing on top of the eaves flapped its wings and landed firmly in the palm of Jin Si's hand with a 'whoosh' sound. The baby scoop's white feathers were clean and beautiful, its black eyes were looking at Xin Jin, its mouth was opening and closing, and its comical appearance once again made Xin Xin giggle.

As he looked at the baby magpie, he thought back to the morning on the Five Colors Peak many years ago. In order to reward her for sewing the embroidered demon robe, Zhu Jiuyin took her to the Five Colors Peak to watch the sunrise. That morning was so peaceful, so warm, so sweet. He leaned against his master's shoulder and watched the red sun slowly rise, illuminating the entire earth. There happened to be a piece of baby spoonful magpie flying across the top of the peak, the clear and melodious cry was intoxicating, so I begged my master to catch one. From then on, the baby magpie followed Xin Xin's lead. Gradually, Xin Xin trained its ability to imitate human voices and named it "Yao Yao", inseparable from the rest of the world.

Jin Si caressed the wings of the baby magpie and muttered, "Yao Yao, master's been in a bad mood these few days. Don't call him so randomly. If he gets annoyed, we're both going to be kicked out."

"Don't go out … "Don't go out …" Yao Yao shouted.

Seeing Yao Tian's cute appearance, Xin Xin couldn't help but feel sorry for her. This Infant Dipper Magpie needed to be taken outside to rear the sheep the most, but for the past few months it had been busy taking care of its owner, keeping it in the palace. Right now, he might as well take advantage of his master's frustration and take him out to relax, so that he could avoid his master's scoldings.

Where should he go? It was, of course, the Mortal Realm's Qing Qiu Mountain. He was also not familiar with the other realms, not to mention the beautiful scenery of the Qing Qiu Mountain, Yao Yao would definitely like it.

He left as soon as he said he would, and departed on the wind, thinking to himself as he placed Gentile on his shoulder.

Unknowingly, he had landed by the Zhuo River. This was because the Zuishui Lake was located in the east of the Qing Qiu mountain and the Devil world was located in the southeast of the mountain. If one were to enter the world from the devil world, the Zuishui Lake was the closest place.

It was already late autumn, and the long winter was about to arrive. At this time of the year, there would be a lot of women from the Raccoon Workshop that would take advantage of the cold winter to wash their clothes, so they had to bring a large amount of clothes to Lake Zhuo to wash. This could save a lot of water source as well as save time and effort.

It was the first time she had ever seen a raccoon washing clothes in the middle of a lake, and it felt new and strange. She was on her shoulder, looking at the raccoon girl near the edge of the lake, and she was twittering. Jin Si slowly walked closer. Looking at the girl skillfully washing clothes, he said with a smile, "Do you guys usually wash clothes like this? These clothes are really beautiful."

The girl turned around and stroked the hair on her forehead as she looked at the baby magpie on her shoulder with surprise. "Yeah, what kind of bird is this? She's much prettier than all these clothes."

"It's called Tian Tian, it's a baby bird caught on top of the rainbow mountain," Jin Si placed the sky above his palm, gently stroking its wings, "Its cry is even more pleasant than a lark, and it can even imitate a human's voice."

"Hello, Master …" "Hello, Master …" Yao Yao seemed to understand the instructions of Susu Thing as she shouted excitedly, causing the girl to laugh.

"My name is Ruan Niang and I live in a nearby racetrack. Where did you come from? Why haven't I seen you before?" It turned out to be Sister Ruan. Ten more years had passed, and she had become very graceful and charming, with the appearance of a mature lady.

"Oh, my name is Xin Jinsi. I came here to sightsee," Xin Jinsi said, looking around the wide lake, intoxicated. "This lake is so wide."

"This is Zhuo Shui lake, the biggest lake in the entire Qing Qiu mountain. The lake water nurtures the people of Supreme Mystery City and Jade Wall City."

"I've heard my master often mention Zhuo Shui Lake, saying that it is the clearest and cleanest lake in the world."

"Yeah, not only is the Zhuoshui Lake clear and sweet, the fish and prawns here are delicious. There's a famous dish called 'Tea Fragrance Shrimp', do you know that it's using the prawns from the Zhuoshui Lake?"

Upon hearing about the delicacies, Susu thought to herself and gulped. "This Zuishui Lake is simply too magical."

Sister Ruan said faintly, "It is more than magical. It is extremely mysterious. I have been washing clothes here since I was young. I only realized now that the bottom of the lake is unfathomably deep. It actually came from the absolute depths!"

"Oh, what's so strange about that?"

Sister Ruan's eyes widened as she said in surprise, "Isn't this strange? The Supreme Mystery is so far away from the water lake …" As he spoke, he pointed towards the distant and blurry palace. Looking into the distance, he could see that it was hundreds of miles away.

The two of them gazed at the distant primal chaos and continued to chat.

Within the primal chaos city, everything was still orderly and orderly as the chanting of the Buddhist chanting continued, causing people to yearn for it.

Li Zongyin, who was the newly promoted Daoist Master Wu, was standing on Fang Hui Yuan's martial stage, leading the ten thousand outer sect disciples to practice their sword skills. Under the autumn sun, tens of thousands of disciples, dressed in white, raised their arms and brandished their swords. They stood side by side, shouting loudly, their voices loud and earth-shaking. This imposing manner was like an earth-shattering pressure, incomparably majestic.

However, in terms of movement skills and martial arts training, he seemed to be lacking a little bit of strength. Compared to the Fifth Hidden Spirit Realm back then, there was still quite a big gap. At this moment, it was unknown when Yin Bao Scroll had stood in the distance and observed for a long time. His expression was wooden, but he still shook his head slightly. It was unknown whether it was because he was dissatisfied or because he suddenly thought of a hidden spirit. However, when everyone looked at the battle arena, they could not help but think of the fifth hidden spirit. After all, he had been in martial arts training for the longest period of time; his sword moves, movements, and postures were all standard. Compared to him, Li Zongyin's movements were less agile and more clumsy.

Seeing Yin Bao Scroll standing far away and finishing her series of sword moves, Li Zongyin hurriedly walked down the stage and arrived beside Yin Bao.

Yin Bao rolled back to reality as he looked at Li Zongyin, "Zongyin, you can't relax. The foundation of these ten thousand outer sect disciples must be built. If your martial arts foundation isn't solid, you might be injured."

"Master, don't worry. Zong Yin will do his best."

"The fact that the Cloud Storm Altar was in fact too painful, but it was still because the disciples' cultivation realms were not good enough to defeat the demons."

"Master is right. We have revealed too many problems during the battle of the Shocking Cloud Altar. If the Demon and Demon Realms join hands, wouldn't we …"

"What is it? You're so unconfident! "

"Disciple did not mean that. I was just worried that this would happen …"

"The primal chaos city is full of talents and talents. There are many heroes present, so how could they possibly fear the Demon and Demon Realms!" Yin Bao rolled up his sleeves and left angrily.

Li Zongyin fell into deep thought as he looked at the departing silhouette of Yin Yang treasure scroll. After a long while, he sighed and turned around to leave.

It wasn't until the evening that Xin Xin Ming finally returned with the heavenly sky. "By the time they returned to the palace, the moon was already shining brightly.

Candle Jiu Yin stood underneath Lan Guiyi, his face seemingly much calmer than before, "Where did you go today? Did you not come back until now?" His tone was as calm as usual without any hint of reproach.

Jin Si secretly rejoiced in his heart, proving that his master was no longer angry and was no longer angry at him. He smiled and said, "Master, Tian Tian and I went to the Lake of Zhuo to have a look at the beautiful scenery."

"Oh, anything new?"

"Master, there really is one. Did you know that the Taixuan Capital is at the bottom of Zhuo Shui Lake?"

Zhu Jiuyin's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Really? Who told you this? You must have made wild guesses."

"I didn't lie to you. A girl in the racetrack workshop told me about it over the years. She found it herself …"

Zhuo Shuishui Lake, Taixuan, these words kept flashing through Zhu Jiuyin's mind. What did the secret of Zhuo Shuishui Lake represent?

Right now, he still did not know. Perhaps in the near future, he would be able to break through the link between them, and that would be an earth-shattering secret.
