Daoist Spirit Concealment and everyone else were hiding at the bottom of the cliff, watching as the rain fell harder and harder.

The flood poured down from the top of the mountain, in this narrow valley. It formed a huge whirlpool.

The mountain pass was like a bottleneck, and the cliffs on both sides were blocking the flow of the flood. As the rain continued to fall, the flood slowly began to rise.

It had already submerged the mysterious cave. The spring was no longer visible, and everyone began to panic.

Seeing that the platform that was hiding from the rain was about to be flooded by the surging flood, everyone leaned against each other while shivering in fear.

Daoist Ling Yin looked at the gloomy sky, and then looked at the rising flood.

He turned around and looked around. The gouges in the walls were wet from the rain, and he could not climb them.

At this moment, everyone was anxiously praying for the blessing of heaven.

At this time, everyone saw a lot of golden yellow fish in the murky flood. At the very front was a large golden-red carp.

They swam in front of everyone and started jumping. Then he dived into the water again, following the big red carp. Swimming upstream in the flood towards the mysterious cave.

After a while, a lot of goldfish of different sizes swam out of the cave.

They seemed to have lifted up a large flagstone from the bottom of the water and were swimming downstream. From afar, a group of small goldfish surrounded the flagstone, but the largest red carp was nowhere to be seen.

When they arrived in front of everyone, they immediately stopped and watched as the little golden fish swam nonstop in the rising flood waters.

Everyone anxiously looked at the scene before them. Just as they were at a loss as to what to do, they heard the gray-clothed Daoist say loudly, "Quick, quick, everyone hurry to the stone slab. Little Fishy is here to save us, everybody be careful. "

With that, he climbed up the stone platform together with the rest of the people from Daoist Ling Yin's group. A dozen of them stood on the stone board.

The little fishes in the flood swam desperately. They followed the current and swam out of the mountain pass.

When they arrived at a flat place, they stopped and hurriedly got down.

The little goldfish again swam upstream to the platform, to save the rest of the townspeople.

Everyone looked at them from afar and could not help but feel grateful towards the goldfish in their hearts.

After a while, all the people on the platform were transported to the safe zone.

Daoist Ling Yin looked at the little goldfish and slowly sank into the water. Moments later …

At this moment, the sky turned bright. The rain began to stop. The flood also retreated.

The valley was filled with muddy dead trees and leaves, and the grass was cleaner than it had been washed away, leaving behind broken rocks of all sizes. and a lot of dead little fish and shrimp.

At this moment, the villagers noticed that there was a river bed not far away. There were dead little golden fish and the largest red carp.

Daoist Ling Yin and everyone else immediately rushed over. Taking a closer look, it was the golden-red carp that had saved them in the water just now.

As they lay there on their last breaths, Daoist Ling Yin and everyone else immediately kneeled in front of the red carp, kowtowing to express their gratitude.

Suddenly, he saw red carp. They turned into a cloud of white smoke and floated in the air. Vaguely, a figure of an immortal wearing a golden robe appeared.

He held a lotus leaf in his hand. With one hand, he took out a shiny white jade from his golden belt and threw it into the air.

Immediately, the dead Little Fishy in the surroundings turned into a wisp of white smoke and was sucked into the jade.

Then, he withdrew the jade and said, "It is fated that you and I will have a good path. I was originally a Golden Carp with a lotus in the South Heaven Gate's Life Cistern.

Because he had violated the laws of the heavens, he was sent to the mortal world and coincidentally met with Chen Chuanshi's birth in the mountain spring.

We have been cultivating here for a hundred years, and have only waited for the solution to this problem. With that, he flew up into the sky.

Daoist Ling Yin and everyone else immediately kowtowed to give their thanks. At this time, they saw a large piece of white and red stone, sparkling and translucent.

Everyone immediately went up to take a look. On the top of the rock, there were three big words, "Fishing Sapphire Stone." As for the little goldfish beside him. In moments, they had also turned into pieces of red-gold stone.

They surrounded the big rock and looked like a giant goldfish with many small fish games in the valley.

③

Daoist Ling Yin brought everyone to continue walking towards the valley. They walked to the bottom of the platform and looked at the tall mountains.

At this time, he saw the words "Pond of Release" at the mouth of the spring beside the cave.

Lingyin immediately stopped to face the "Pond of Life, kowtow," to thank you.

Afterwards, they came to the place where the ancestor left his footprints and prepared to cut down the mountain to build a road. He and the gray-clothed Taoist priest cut down two trees and made a ladder.

However, everyone held on bitterly. He hoped to get to the top of the mountain as soon as possible.

It was unknown how much time had passed, but he only managed to build a few Zhang high up on the cliff. Everyone was exhausted and out of breath.

At this time, some villagers suggested that they should go down the mountain for a few days to rest before heading up the mountain.

Lingyin looked at everyone and saw that the gray-clothed Daoist Priest was too tired to stand up, so he could only agree to the villagers' requests. He was about to get up and go down the mountain.

At this time, he saw a cloud floating in the sky. It was getting lower and lower. They flew towards the direction of the valley.

Atop the cloud, a white-haired elder riding a sika deer floated over. He held the horsetail whisk in one hand and gently waved it. A golden light was sent out from the horsetail whisk and it landed on the cliff.

Moments later, a deep gouge was left in the cliff face, with a chain beside it.

Everyone immediately kneeled down and kowtowed to thank Old Lord Taishang for his efforts. At this moment, everyone was full of energy and began to move again.

After a few hours, everyone easily climbed to the top of the cliff.

Daoist Ling Yin stood on top of the mountain peak and looked at the surrounding scenery. Clouds and mist permeated everywhere, and the trees were lush and verdant. The tall mountains were connected to the blue sky, and one could not see the top.

Ling Yin looked at the peak of the mountain. At this point, the mountain was already halfway up the mountain. The palace at the peak of the mountain was still very far away.

Everyone still needed to work hard. Ling Yin secretly made up her mind that she must climb to the top of the mountain.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened. Everyone had been tired for the entire day, so they started a fire to rest.

Lingyin took out the dry rations she had prepared and distributed them to everyone. Everyone sat around the fire and ate their second meal of the day.

Ling Yin and the gray-clothed Daoist Priest also sat beside the bonfire, discussing the many matters that would happen tomorrow, as well as the urgently needed rations.

And now that they climbed up the cliff, they didn't see Little Shi and Ling Xu bring any rations here. They were still young, and with so much food, climbing up the cliff was extremely dangerous. Ling Yin thought about what to do.

At this time, the grey-clothed Daoist stood up and said:

"I'll think of something."

With that, he walked into the valley.
