Chapter 30: Entering the South Ridge

That night, Nangong Chu performed light skills, returned to the Immortal Ridge, and hid the more than six million cash and more than one million US dollars in a small hidden cave at the top of the peak. And the remaining almost three million were at the disposal of the two brothers, Shan Xin and Shan Xiong, after all, the more than 20 junior brothers were also a lot of expenses for a month's training.

According to Nangong Chu's plan, if the more than twenty junior brothers under Ye Feng can successfully pass this arduous training, they will be qualified to learn ancient martial arts from Ye Feng and become the backbone of the "Dark Dragon" organization.

Nangong Chu didn't have the energy and time to teach these people to practice ancient martial arts one by one, this task undoubtedly fell on Ye Feng again, who called him Nangong Chu's apprentice.

The next day, after Nangong Chu instructed the two brothers Shan Xin and Shan Xiong to do their best to supervise the training of the more than 20 people, he left this wild bamboo forest with Ye Feng.

When Nangong Chu planned to create a force of his own, he already had a preliminary plan. Now that the personnel are already available, the next plan can be continued.

Nangong Chu's first consideration was to refine the "Huitian Pill", which was used to build a foundation for Ye Feng and Shan Xin, Shan Xiong and others, with this legendary ancient martial arts miracle medicine, I believe that it can greatly change their physique, so that they can also achieve half the effort when they cultivate ancient martial arts, after all, they have all passed the best age for cultivating ancient martial arts.

"Huitian Pill" was originally an alchemy prescription that Nangong Chu had seen when he was browsing through the books in Nangong's secret place. According to ancient records, this kind of elixir not only has the effect of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, but also can slowly improve the human condition, and it is simply the best elixir used by people who have just begun to learn martial arts to build a foundation.

However, the prescription and refining method of "Huitian Pill" Nangong Chu had only seen it in the ancient pharmacopoeia, and he had not written down the refining method and the required medicine at all. Therefore, he could only return to the secret place of Nangong again and check the classics.

Nanling, the general name of the Huguang Mountains, is about 1,400 kilometers long from east to west, and is the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River basin. Nanling blocks cold currents in the north and typhoons in the south, resulting in a warm climate in the south of Nanling with little frost and snow all year round, and a colder winter in the north. It is an important geographical dividing line in China.

The ruins of the Nangong family are in the mountains south of Nanling, hundreds of kilometers away from Linhai City.

"Passengers, the terminal of this train, Xinning Station, has arrived......" After more than ten hours of operation, the next morning, Nangong Chu and Ye Feng finally came to the first stop of the trip, Xinning. From there, they will enter the Yuecheng Ridge and the remaining veins of the Xuefeng Mountain in the Nanling Mountains.

Out of the train station, with the help of a brother, Nangong Chu and his apprentices quickly found a high-grade hotel and settled down, this time they came out with sufficient funds, enough for their little luxury.

"Sir, welcome to visit, what do you want to buy, we have various brands of outdoor sports equipment here at home and abroad, which can meet your various needs. Nangong Chu's master and apprentice, who had settled down in his accommodation, did not waste time, and quickly found an outdoor sports equipment store.

This is mainly for Ye Feng, an apprentice who has not yet cultivated ancient martial arts, but Nangong Chu does not need these tools for survival in the wild, with his extreme cultivation of the sixth order of ancient martial arts, the cliffs are equivalent to the Great Dao.

"Well, I want a whole set of gear for survival in the wild. Ye Feng said to the clerk behind the counter, he had already learned from Nangong Chu's mouth that the place they were going to was in the inaccessible mountains, he didn't have the peerless light skills of Nangong Chu, he regarded the mountains and deep valleys as nothing, and could only rely on his two legs to cross the wilderness of hundreds of kilometers step by step.

During this period, there may be emergencies anytime and anywhere, and although Nangong Chu is by his side, if he is not fully prepared, he will be injured and go back, and it will be too faceless to make the brothers of the "Dark Dragon" laugh.

There are more than 30 kinds of special equipment such as Vietnam War jungle combat boots, military jungle combat uniforms, single tents, special knives for survival in the wilderness, waterproof flashlights, mountaineering ropes, compasses, etc., and the super-large capacity military backpacks are stuffed to the brim, and the net weight of all equipment exceeds 40 kilograms.

If it weren't for Ye Feng's ability to be forged by Nangong Chu Yi a few days ago and start to practice internal strength, the strength and endurance of the whole person would have increased a lot, and the weight of this rucksack alone would have been enough to make Ye Feng stop.

Everything was ready, and after resting in Xinning County for one night, Nangong Chu's master and apprentice set out on the journey again the next morning. They will start from an unnamed town and enter the Southridge Mountains.

On the first day after entering the mountain, Ye Feng tasted the pain of walking the mountain road, obviously the opposite mountain was in front of him, but he still didn't arrive after circling in the mountains for a long time, plus he had to constantly choose to change the route on the way, so even with the help of Nangong Chu, he only crossed a straight line distance of less than thirty kilometers on the first day.

Moreover, in order to train this newly recruited apprentice, Nangong Chu most of the time asked Ye Feng to carry a big backpack, climb mountains and wade through rivers, and follow the apprentice leisurely, or walk in front of the apprentice.

"Let's camp here today!" After nightfall, Ye Feng, who was seriously physically exhausted, couldn't bear it, so Nangong Chu chose an open space for Ye Feng to set up a tent, and found a lot of dead wood to light a bonfire outside the tent.

In this deep mountain, there are often wild beasts, and during the day they even encounter fierce beasts such as wild wolves, pythons and black bears, although Nangong Chu master and apprentice are not afraid, they do not want wild beasts to run to attack them when they are resting.

After Nangong Chu's master and apprentice had a simple dinner, Ye Feng went into the tent and devoted himself to the cultivation of internal strength, the heavy backpack on his body and the steep mountain road full of thorns made his physical strength almost exhausted, if he didn't hurry up and replenish the consumed strength, it would be difficult to continue to move forward tomorrow.
