Longmu Island.

A towering giant tree stands in the center of the island, with its branches intertwined like a winding dragon circling. This is the rumored Dragon Tree, and it is also where the Dragon Tree Island gets its name.

Under this towering dragon tree, the closest place to the main trunk is an open space. At this time, many scattered figures can be vaguely seen in this open space, either gathered or scattered. Some were tasting tea, and some were gathered together, each seeming to be discussing something.

in.

Located on one side, there are about ten figures, headed by Yan Hong.

"Your Highness, this is Grandmaster Liu Qingyan of the Hehuan Sect. He also wants to explore the Xunmu Cave."

Yan Zhengyang led a young woman in her prime and introduced him to Yan Hong. When Yan Hong heard that Liu Qingyan was from the Hehuan Sect, she did not show any look of disgust and nodded towards Liu Qingyan as usual. : "If Grandmaster Liu is willing to accompany us, our team will gain another level of confidence."

Liu Qingyan smiled calmly and said: "I don't need much, I only need three kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in exchange for it."

The Hehuan Sect didn't pay much attention to this Xunmu Cave Heaven matter, so she was the only one who came to participate. Naturally, she was not very sure that she could get benefits from Xun Mu Cave Heaven, so she naturally wanted to find a team. Join forces.

"Three pounds?"

After Yan Hong pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, "No more, no less. If this trip goes well, it should be enough for Grandmaster Liu's needs."

There is not a lot of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in Xunmu Cave. Three kilograms is already a large amount. Only if the operation is extremely smooth, it is possible for everyone to get three kilograms. However, now that we are recruiting people, Naturally, try to put the words in the best possible light.

Liu Qingyan also knew this. It was not easy to get three kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, but in exchange for the top-grade Dinghai Pearl, a full three kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid was needed. More or less, Yanhong's In her judgment, the team was the most suitable to join. After all, she was familiar with half of the members, and she had some friendships with two of them.

In short, even if she doesn't get three kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in the end, after leaving Xunmu Cave, many masters will come to Longmu Island to trade with each other. She can also try to use some of her own resources to exchange for a certain amount with others. Xunmu spirit liquid.

certainly.

The premise is that the trip to Xunmu Cave can go smoothly.

Regardless of the number of grandmasters gathered on Longmu Island now, there are almost more than a hundred, but the spirit people in Xunmu Cave are not easy to deal with. The main one is the ancestor of the spirit people, who can compete with the existence of the blood exchange realm and intimidate them. Extremely powerful.

After a brief discussion with Yan Hong, Liu Qingyan also joined Yan Hong's team. In this way, Yan Hong's team had a total of fourteen people. Although it was not the largest team among the many masters present, it still had the largest number of people. It is already a very conspicuous force.

Buzz! !

Suddenly there was a buzzing sound, which attracted the attention of many people in the venue.

I saw a tall man with a bare upper body and dark golden skin, walking from a distance. Every step he took caused the power of the nearby heaven and earth to vibrate. The surging energy contained in his body made people feel depressed.

"So strong."

Many masters' eyes flickered when they saw the visitor.

Even Yan Hong looked at him sideways.

Yan Zhengyang stood on one side, looked at it intently, and then whispered: "It should be Master Zonggang from Haiqiu Island. He practices the secret hard and soft body. He is the first-class master in the outer sea. He is not weak. To our great master.”

The ultimate master!

This is a figure who stands at the pinnacle of the Grandmaster. There are only a dozen or so people in the ninety-nine states of Daxuan. He is almost the strongest existence in the blood exchange realm. They are even qualified to support one or two or even escape from the blood exchange realm. .

In fact, this is already extremely powerful. Most masters have no power to resist against real people in the blood-changing realm. Being able to resist even one and a half moves and escape without dying is enough to make them famous all over the world. A monster like Chen Mu who can truly compete with blood exchange in the marrow cleansing realm is a rare sight in a thousand years.

"Master Zonggang..."

Yan Hong narrowed her eyes slightly.

Although this was her first time meeting him, she was not unfamiliar with this name. As far as she knew, King Jin, who once ranked first in the Xuanzong family tree, had fought against Master Zonggang in the outer sea in the past. There is no winner in a battle.

She did not have a good relationship with King Jin, but this did not prevent her from knowing the strength of King Jin. Before Chen Mu was born, King Jin, who entered the Tao with yin and yang, was the first grandmaster of the ninety-nine states of Daxuan. In the realm of marrow cleansing No one can surpass him.

"Master Zonggang, you are here too."

Just as Master Zong Gang stepped into the arena, a calm voice suddenly came out, and a thin figure was seen in the distance, walking towards him with his hands behind his back, and there seemed to be five-color lotus flowers at every step. In a flash, the whole person approached quietly.

The person coming this time was no stranger to Yan Hong and others, nor was it the first time they had seen him.

Five Elements Taoist Sect.

Hong Shida!

Number six in the world’s grandmaster tree!

Entering the Tao with the complete Five Elements to cleanse the marrow, control the realm of the Five Elements, and practice the rotation of the Five Elements' artistic conceptions to a state of perfection. In the Five Elements One Path, except for the existence of the blood exchange realm, he has reached the extreme.

"Sect Master Hong, you are fine."

Master Zong Gang turned to look at Hong Shida and smiled.

Hong Shida stepped closer and nodded slightly to Master Zong Gang, and the two of them walked to a place together. It seemed that they were not only familiar with each other, but also seemed to be working together to open the Xunmu Cave.

not far away.

Yan Hong frowned slightly as she watched this scene.

Longmu Island summoned many masters to gather together to explore Xunmu Cave Heaven. It is indeed a good thing that many masters from Daxuan and the outer sea are strong enough. After all, the Lingren tribe is the enemy that everyone must face together.

But if all is said and done, the reason why everyone is exploring Xunmu Cave is to compete for resources, it will be fine before the ancestors of the Lingren clan are solved. If everyone joins forces to repel or injure the ancestors of the Lingren clan, then it will undoubtedly become your fight. I won the situation.

Hong Shida and Master Zong Gang, two peerless masters, join forces. In a place like Xunmu Cave Heaven where the blood exchange realm cannot be entered, they are undoubtedly a very serious threat. Even the seven or eight top masters may not be taken seriously by them.

In her team, there are only three people who are worthy of the top masters, and the others are slightly inferior.

If her brother King Yan were here and there was another peerless master taking the lead, her confidence would undoubtedly be much stronger. Now, facing a powerful alliance like Hong Shida and Master Zong Gang, it would be inevitable to give in.

"It's a good thing to have the two of them here. After all, the ancestor of the Lingren tribe is not a mere idler."

Yan Zhengyang spoke in a low voice from the side.

It is not good for those who enter the Xunmu Cave to be too strong, and it is not good to be too weak. If they are too strong, they will fight among themselves if they run wild. If they are too weak, they will be hunted by the spirit people, so they can only hide in the Xunmu Cave. Hide and explore for spiritual objects.

"Um."

Yan Hong nodded thoughtfully.

Although she understood what Yan Zhengyang meant, the three top masters still seemed a little weak to her.

Just at this time.

Her eyes suddenly moved slightly, and she looked in a distant direction, and saw a young figure in that direction, dressed in ordinary cloth, strolling nearby, looking at the surroundings and the towering dragon tree crown in the center.

As soon as he saw this visitor, Yan Hong's eyes suddenly flashed a little, and he took the initiative to take a few steps forward, greeted him, and said: "Brother Mu, I haven't seen you for so many days, I thought you wouldn't come. "

The young man strolling over was none other than Chen Mu.

After he set off from Yunmu Island, he rushed to Longmu Island non-stop. Now it was almost the last two days of the invitation from the owner of Longmu Island, and he was also rushing to come at this time.

"I can't help but have a hand in such lively things as Xunmu Cave Heaven."

Seeing Yan Hong approaching, Chen Mu also slightly cupped his hands. After saying hello, he turned his gaze to the field and took a rough glance. He sensed that the energy of at least hundreds of masters were gathered here, and his eyes also reflected. There was a little glimmer of light.

Although the Bingzhou Diyuan was opened before, and there were almost hundreds of Hanbei Grandmasters who went to the Diyuan, the overall quality was not as good as the Xunmu Cave opened this time.

In his perception, among the masters present, there was almost no weak Qi!

At least they are all masters who are comparable to Feng Hongsheng and Shi Zhenyong. Among them, there are many top masters who are comparable to Jiang Changsheng, and there are no fewer than twenty or thirty masters. There are even peerless masters such as Master Zonggang and Hong Shida who have not yet been seen in Hanbei.

When Yan Hong heard Chen Mu's words, he couldn't help but smile and said: "At Brother Mu's current level, you don't need many things, but the collections on Longmu Island and Tingchao Cliff are still quite extensive... I think Brother Mu seems to You came here alone, and you probably don’t know much about Xunmu Cave. After all, Xunmu Cave is very dangerous, so why not join forces with us?”

Speaking of which.

Yan Hong paused and said a little apologetically: "To be honest, Yan Hong is a commonly used pseudonym in the past. My surname is actually Ji. My name only has the character "Hong", which is quite famous in Beijing."

If you want to invite Chen Mu to join forces to explore Xunmu Cave, naturally you can't interact with them under a pseudonym like before. Although Chen Mu's true origin is still unclear, it is obviously impossible to gain Chen Mu's trust without revealing his true identity.

"It turns out to be His Highness Yongning, sorry."

Chen Mu was not surprised when he heard Yan Hong reveal his identity and slightly cupped his hands at her.

Ji Hong.

He had heard of this name, and even mentioned Yan Hong casually to Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying a few days ago, and both women guessed who it was and told Chen Mu about Ji Hong. a lot of information.

There were many princes and princesses in the dynasty, but only eight of them were named 'Kings'. There were also very few who were named 'Princess' by the Jin Dynasty, only nine. Ji Hong was one of them, with the title of 'Yongning'. '.

The Daxuan Dynasty respected martial arts. The princes and princesses who were named kings or princesses in the past dynasties were often only Only when you become a master and enter the realm of marrow cleansing can you be qualified to be crowned a king or princess by the Jin Dynasty.

Ji Hong is not the eldest son, she belongs to a relatively remote lineage among many royal daughters, and her mother-in-law does not have much background power. However, after all, she relied on her own talent and martial arts to become a master, and was awarded the title of 'Yongning'. Now she is still in charge of the imperial court. As the deputy chief of the Demon Slayer General Division, he has suppressed many demon rebellions and has a good reputation both inside and outside the court.

Yan Hong smiled at Chen Mu and said: "Brother Mu, there is no need to be polite. You are doing jianghu things in the world, and the title is just a false name. In this world, martial arts is respected, so brother Mu still calls me 'Miss Yan'." ”

Hear this.

Chen Mu couldn't help but smile. He originally didn't plan to go with anyone. He even saw Liu Qingyan, the Hehuan Grandmaster, and didn't plan to go over to say hello. However, Yan Hong's words were quite in line with his temperament, and Hua Nong Yue and Hua Nongying did not have a map or more detailed information about Xunmu Cave, so they nodded after a little consideration.

"It would be disrespectful for me to accept the compliment."

"Okay, please, Brother Mu."

Seeing Chen Mu agree, Yan Hong also showed a smile.

Although the origin of Chen Mu is still a bit unclear, it is not critical. Firstly, only the Grandmaster can enter Xunmu Cave. Secondly, in Xunmu Cave, the Lingren tribe is the common enemy of everyone, and she There are already three trustworthy top masters in the team. Even if Chen Mu’s origin is unknown, it doesn’t matter if he is not too trustworthy. After all, he cannot be from the Lingren tribe.

In addition, Chen Mu himself is very powerful. Even if he has never seen Chen Mu attack with all his strength during his journey together, he is definitely a top-level grandmaster. In this way, there will be four top grandmasters in the team, even if When encountering some dangerous situations in Xunmu Cave, you can deal with them with greater confidence.

soon.

Yan Hong led Chen Mu to the front of Yan Zhengyang and others.

"This is Grandmaster Yan Zhengyang, who is the deputy chief of the Demon Slaying Department with me. This is Grandmaster Wei Shuxianwei, who comes from the 'Tianshou Pavilion' of the righteous sect canonized by the imperial court. This is..."

Yan Hong briefly introduced the identities of the masters to Chen Mu. Most of them were from Zhongzhou, or had inextricable connections with the royal family, or were supporters of her lineage.

Although Yan Hong is not one of the eight kings, as one of the canonized princesses, she is actually qualified to inherit the throne. In the history of Daxuan for more than a thousand years, there was a generation of female emperors. She was one of the many bloodlines of the royal family at that time. , the only one who has stepped into the realm of blood exchange, is qualified to inherit the throne, and also intends to compete for the throne, and finally reaches the ninth position.

The blood-changing realm and the marrow-washing realm are two completely different levels.

It can be said that among the eight kings today, if anyone enters the realm of blood exchange, it will be difficult for the other seven to compete with him. His succession to the throne is almost a certainty!

Similarly, if Yan Hong can survive life and death, enter the realm of blood exchange, and intends to compete for the throne, he will definitely have the qualifications and confidence, and will even have an advantage over the Eight Kings who are not in the blood exchange.

only.

It is too difficult to achieve the realm of blood exchange.

Often among ten or even twenty grandmasters, it is difficult for one to be able to withstand life and death and reach the realm of blood exchange.

After Yan Hong's introduction, Yan Zhengyang and many other masters also met with Chen Mu one by one. Although they were all from Zhongzhou, and there were also high-ranking figures among them, after all, this world valued strength, and Chen Mu was in everyone's perception. During this time, almost no energy was leaked out. This level of breathing control method was undoubtedly quite extraordinary, and not many people present could do it.

Therefore, both Yan Zhengyang and Wei Shuxian were all very polite.

After a brief introduction, Yan Hong took out a map she held about the internal conditions and structure of Xunmu Cave, and handed it to Chen Mu for reading.
