Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

After learning that it might be related to the Shadow Pavilion, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er decided not to passively avoid it, but to take the initiative to look for traces of the Shadow Pavilion.

After some investigation, they finally got an important clue: in a place called Black Wind Mountain, there was a secret base of the Shadow Pavilion.

"Senior Brother Xiao, the terrain of Black Wind Mountain is complex and dangerous on all sides. We must be extremely careful on this trip." Lin Wan'er looked worried, her beautiful brows slightly furrowed, and her watery eyes were full of anxiety.

Xiao Muchen's expression was firm, like a towering mountain, unshakable. "Wan'er, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it. As long as we can uncover the conspiracy of the Shadow Pavilion, we will go no matter how dangerous it is."

The two of them headed towards Black Wind Mountain without hesitation. Along the way, the mountain road was rugged and full of thorns. Those thorns seemed like ferocious claws, trying to block their way. From time to time, there were wild beasts, and their roars echoed in the mountains and forests, which was creepy. But for Xiao Muchen, who was a Dou Zong, these obstacles were just a piece of cake. He released a powerful Dou Qi with a wave of his hand. The Dou Qi was like a gorgeous glow, instantly turning the thorns blocking the road into ashes. The wild beasts felt this powerful force and fled in fear or were stunned by the Dou Qi.

Soon, they arrived at the foot of Black Wind Mountain. Looking up, Black Wind Mountain towered into the clouds, and the peak was shrouded in clouds and mist, exuding a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere, as if it was a sleeping beast that might wake up and devour them at any time.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er did not hesitate at all. They soared into the air and turned into two streams of light, flying towards the top of the mountain. On the way, the wind was howling, and the wind was like a sharp whistle, which made people's cheeks hurt. But the fighting spirit shield around them was like a solid fortress, easily isolating all obstacles. The shield flashed a light blue light, beautiful and powerful.

Suddenly, Xiao Muchen frowned slightly, and he sensed a strong energy fluctuation in front of him. The fluctuation was like surging waves, one after another, frightening.

"Oh no, there may be something ahead." Xiao Muchen's voice was low and serious.

Not far ahead, two groups of people were fighting fiercely. One group was dressed in black, with ruthless and vicious moves. The other group was a group of chivalrous knights, all of them were filled with righteous indignation and fought bravely.

Xiao Muchen could tell at a glance that the man in black was a minion of the Shadow Pavilion. He snorted coldly, and the powerful Dou Zong pressure was released instantly. The pressure was like a mountain pressing down on one's head, heavy and suffocating.

"Stop!" Xiao Muchen's voice was like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears.

The men in black only felt an irresistible force coming at them, and their bodies froze involuntarily, as if they were under a spell.

"Wan'er, let's help." Before Xiao Muchen finished speaking, the Star Sword was already unsheathed. At the same time, a ball of purple flame rose from his palm, and lightning flashed in the flame. It was the strange fire "Wind Thunder Fury Flame".

A flash of sword light passed by, like lightning piercing the night sky, and several men in black fell to the ground in an instant. Xiao Muchen waved the Wind and Thunder Blaze in his hand, and the blazing flames instantly swept over, engulfing more men in black. Blood splattered, dyeing the ground under his feet red. Lin Wan'er also cast a spell, and as her hands danced, soft rays of light fell, healing the wounded knights. The light was like a warm spring breeze, soothing the pain of the wounded.

Those chivalrous men were shocked by Xiao Muchen's powerful strength and expressed their gratitude.

"Thank you for your help, both knights." An older knight stepped forward and said with a fist. His face was full of fatigue and gratitude, and his eyes revealed his admiration for Xiao Muchen.

Xiao Muchen responded, "You're welcome. We are here to investigate the Shadow Pavilion as well."

The knight said, "So that's how it is. The Shadow Pavilion has committed many evil things. We got news that they had an important operation in Black Wind Mountain, so we came to stop them, but we didn't expect to fall into their ambush." The knight's voice was full of anger and helplessness.

Xiao Muchen asked: "Do you know what their purpose is in Black Wind Mountain?"

The knight shook his head, "I'm not sure, but I heard it's related to a mysterious treasure."

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er looked at each other, and became more certain that this secret base in Black Wind Mountain was hiding a major conspiracy.

After bidding farewell to the knights, they continued to go deeper into Black Wind Mountain. The forest became increasingly quiet, with only the sounds of their footsteps and breathing. Occasionally, the sound of a few unknown birds chirped, adding to the eerie atmosphere.

Finally, they found the secret base of the Shadow Pavilion. Outside the base, there was a tight security, and the men in black were alert and holding weapons. Xiao Muchen just waved his sleeves lightly, and the powerful fighting spirit surged out like a surging wave. The guards were instantly thrown to the ground and flew away like fallen leaves.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er walked into the stronghold with a swagger. Inside the stronghold, the houses were scattered in an orderly manner, but there were men in black patrolling everywhere. However, in front of Xiao Muchen's Dou Zong aura, these patrolling men in black did not dare to approach at all. They hid far away, their eyes full of fear.

They approached a house that looked important. Just as they were about to reach the house, a huge black dog suddenly barked at them. The dog was huge, had sharp fangs, and had a ferocious light in its eyes.

Xiao Muchen's eyes turned cold and a stream of fighting spirit shot out. At the same time, the Wind and Thunder Flame in his hand flew out. The giant dog was instantly wrapped in flames and turned into ashes.

Suddenly, many men in black surrounded them.

"Don't overestimate your own abilities!" Xiao Muchen formed seals with his hands, and a powerful storm of fighting spirit erupted with him as the center. The storm was like a tornado, sweeping everything away. All the black-clothed men around were blown away, their bodies rolled in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Just as they were gradually going deeper into the stronghold, Xiao Muchen suddenly discovered an entrance to the basement.

"Wan'er, come with me." Xiao Muchen pulled Lin Wan'er and entered the basement in a flash.

There was a pungent smell in the basement, and all kinds of strange instruments and bottles and jars were placed around. Those instruments flashed strange lights, and the bottles and jars were filled with unknown liquids and objects.

"What on earth is this place?" Lin Wan'er asked, with a hint of fear in her voice.

Xiao Muchen did not answer, but instead extended his powerful soul power to carefully explore everything around him. His soul power was like an invisible tentacle, sensing every subtle change.

Suddenly, a black shadow attacked from behind them, as fast as lightning. Xiao Muchen had already noticed it, and swung his sword back, and the Star Sword collided with the black shadow, making a harsh sound. The black shadow screamed and flew backwards, hitting the wall, revealing his figure, and turned out to be a master of the Shadow Pavilion.

Xiao Muchen looked at him coldly, "Tell me, what are you doing here?"

The expert gnashed his teeth and said, "Don't even think about getting any information from me!"

Xiao Muchen stopped talking nonsense and swung his sword again. The powerful fighting spirit instantly enveloped it. At the same time, the raging flames of wind, thunder and fire roared out, instantly turning it into ashes.
