After traveling to the world of cultivation, I rely on the game system to survive

Sword Sect, Yuheng Peak.

It has been a whole year since Pei Nianyi was trapped in the secret realm of the Immortal Mansion.

After the news of Pei Nianyi being trapped was passed back to the sect, Sect Leader Taiwu personally took action but was unable to find any trace of the Immortal Mansion Secret Realm or Pei Nianyi.

Chu Huaiyan took Yin Tian down the mountain for training and has not returned yet. After searching in the Shadow Desert for a month, Xia Chen returned to the sect and went into seclusion. Su Huaining watched as all his friends left, leaving him all alone, and suddenly he felt that he should go into seclusion as well.

Just as he was preparing to go into seclusion, he received a message from his master, Baicao Zhenjun.

"Huaining, do you know the Demon Locking Tower?" As Baicao Zhenjun spoke, he swept his spiritual sense across, and in just a few breaths, he had checked his disciple's cultivation level.

"The so-called Demon Locking Tower is a magical instrument made by a great weapon refiner in ancient times. It can imprison demons and monsters. Combined with the magic array of a great array master, it has infinite power, and demons and monsters can't escape at all." Baicao Zhenjun quickly introduced the Demon Locking Tower to himself, not caring whether Su Huaining knew about it.

"Besides the extremely vicious demons imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower, there are also demonized demons and cultivators." Baicao Zhenjun's voice was cold, her brows slightly furrowed, and her eyes darkened as she continued, "It's just that the cultivators guarding the Demon Locking Tower recently sent news that something has been wrong with the Demon Locking Tower since the Qingyun Conference. Lately, the demons and monsters in the tower have been very violent, and even the living creatures nearby have been affected."

"The major sects have already discussed and decided to send disciples to jointly investigate this matter. This time, you will represent our Yuheng Peak and go with the other disciples of the sect."

Su Huaining hesitated and said, "Master, I..."

"Don't worry, Xia Chen will also be representing Kaiyang Peak this time." Baicao Zhenjun said without hesitation, "There's still no news about Junior-Martial-Nephew Pei. Why don't you take this opportunity to go out for a walk, improve your cultivation, and maybe even find her whereabouts."

Baicao Zhenjun settled the matter in just a few words, and then told Su Huaining to make good preparations before sending him away.

There have been many wars between humans and demons, and finally they were isolated from each other. The blank area left behind is called the Exile Abyss.

The Demon Locking Tower is built on the Exile Abyss.

Because of the war between humans and demons, the Exiled Abyss has become barren and deserted since some time ago, with chaotic spiritual energy and no suitable place for human habitation.

However, due to the existence of the Demon Locking Tower, each sect would send a team of troops to garrison here. Over time, many small villages gathered around the Exile Abyss, and the small villages were merged into a town named Taiping.

The one who manages Taiping Town is the Piaomiao Sect of the Northern Wilderness. The reason is simple, because the Exiled Abyss is located at the extreme end of the Northern Wilderness.

Since they have decided to go to the Demon Locking Tower, the Sword Sect plans to send a team of disciples immediately.

This team of disciples arrived early, on the one hand to investigate the situation in the Demon Locking Tower and the Exile Abyss, and on the other hand to arrange trivial matters in advance, such as whether the houses where the sect is stationed need to be repaired and tidied up, and how to assign accommodation to the disciples after they arrive.

Pei Nianyi's senior brother Mo Yunguang manages various affairs of the sect on behalf of Sect Leader Taiwu. He is very capable in dealing with people and is best able to deal with various emergencies.

Therefore, the task of taking the lead was to be led by Mo Yunguang, the eldest brother of Tianshu Peak, and Ji Fengli, Xia Chen and Su Huaining went together.

The sword boat sped along and arrived at Taiping Town in just a few days.

When he arrived at the sect’s garrison, Mo Yunguang was completely stunned.

Ji Fengli, the second junior fellow from Tianshu Peak who had come here with him, stared at the building in front of him in astonishment. He asked in disbelief, "Brother, are you sure this is our Sword Sect's garrison? Are you sure we've come to the right place?"

Su Huaining also looked around, raised his head to confirm for a long time, pointed to the plaque above the door and said: "It says the word Sword Sect, this is definitely the place..."

Mo Yunguang looked at everything in front of him in silence.

I don’t know what has happened here. At the end of the bumpy loess path, there is a row of crooked wooden gates. The courtyard inside is large but extremely dilapidated. The walls are uneven and the crumbling walls are only shoulder-high. You can almost see what the courtyard looks like when you stand outside.

As they stood at the door in a daze, a man in green suddenly appeared behind them and gave a slight bow: "Are you fellow Daoists from the Sword Sect?"

Mo Yunguang's eyes flickered as he took one look at the green disciple uniform. He smiled and said, "Mo Yunguang from Tianshu Peak of the Sword Sect, I wonder which elder of the Medicine Sect you are a disciple of?"

The green-clothed disciple smiled without embarrassment, saying, "I am Hua Ning, a disciple of True Monarch Mingqiong. I come here in the name of our master." He glanced at the dilapidated courtyard, then took a half step forward and asked, "Do any of you Daoists need any help?"

Xia Chen curled his lips and tutted, "If someone shows kindness for no reason, he's either a traitor or a thief."

Mo Yunguang did not rebuke Xia Chen's rudeness, but continued to smile and say, "My junior brother is straightforward and speaks his mind. Fellow Daoist Hua, please don't be offended. The few of us can handle the trivial matters, so you don't need to worry about it."

He pointed to the sky and continued, "It's getting late, and we brothers still have things to do, so we won't keep Fellow Daoist Ning for tea."

Hua Ning was not annoyed and said with a smile: "In that case, since you all have things to do, I will go back first. If you change your mind, you can come to the yard next door to find me." After that, he turned and left.

Mo Yunguang and his companions sent Hua Ning away. The disciples stationed here also came out when they heard the noise outside the courtyard.

"Senior Brother Mo, I am Feng Yu, a disciple of Tianxuan Peak. I am sorry for the hard work on the journey, please come in." Feng Yu pushed open the wooden gate of the dilapidated courtyard.

A few people walked into the yard, and what appeared before their eyes was no longer a dilapidated yard, but a place covered with yellow earth.

There is a pond, green trees and pavilions in the courtyard, which is extremely quiet.

After passing the pond, a winding path leads to a secluded place where an elegant and graceful courtyard appears faintly.

"This is a small courtyard built by Master Yu Shu using a formation." Feng Yu's tone was a little proud, and he once again admired Master Yu Shu's methods in his heart.

Mo Yunguang and his companions became busy as messages were transmitted back to the Sword Sect one by one via communication talismans.

Hua Ning left the Jianzong's garrison, turned onto the brick and stone road, and stopped at the gate of a courtyard with white walls, black tiles, high ridges and flying eaves.

After entering the courtyard, he stopped at the door of a study, raised his hand and knocked on the door, and waited for a while.

It was not until he heard a voice saying "Come in" from inside the room that he bent down, opened the door and walked into the room.

Hua Ning stood respectfully, staring at the ground and not daring to look around.

A middle-aged monk was sitting in the study, reading a booklet. When Hua Ning arrived, his gaze followed him. His gaze was cold, mixed with a hint of contempt, which made people shudder.
