Holding the wooden strip handed to him by his grandfather, Zhang Cheng drove his horse thousands of miles west across a small river into the dense forest of the 100,000 mountains, he wanted to find the Tang family's advance camp, the future daughter-in-law Tang Yuan was going out with the family elders, and if he wanted to get married, he had to find someone first.

There are only seven or eight old people left behind in Taoyuan Village, the children are concentrated in the martial arts school, and the adults are all begging for a living in the mountains.

The big black horse is fast, and a cheetah is Zhang Cheng's companion beast, this guy can't drive away the big black horse, and he is afraid of making Zhang Cheng angry and dare not kill the horse to eat meat, and has been intimidating the black horse recently, but the black horse is not afraid of the leopard cub at all with its own hooves, and every time the cheetah approaches, it will turn its hooves and pretend to lose its hooves, so scared that the leopard cubs dodge.

Qi country is in the basin of 100,000 mountains, the small river at the foot of the mountain in the west is not wide, crossing the river is a steep slope, climbing up a few hundred meters is an impenetrable dense forest, a road that only Qi people can see leads to the distance, the branches and forks are staggered and dense, walk a section to look at the wooden strips, which depicts the different marks of each road belong to whose family, along the inscriptions left by the Tang family all the way down, until the road forks are less and less, he knows that it is not far from the Tang family's forward camp.

If it weren't for Zhang Cheng's warning, I don't know how many trees would be broken, it was used to rampage in the grassland, how could it know how to cherish the grass and trees, the only thing that made it happy along the way was that countless wild fruits could be eaten to their heart's content, although it was not a high-level spiritual object, but it contained more spiritual energy than the spiritual grass, in case it gnawed the spiritual fruit one day, maybe it could advance to the second order in one fell swoop.

Ordinary people don't have so many rules, the elders will not point out the juniors astray because of selfishness, when Tang Yuan was found, Tang Yuan's mother gave the two of them a seven-leaf orchid, and told Zhang Cheng to continue to go west to find his own way and build his own forward base.

Together, they rode westward.

There are no roads for more than 100 miles, and this place is located deep in the mountains two thousand miles from the west coast.

"Xiaoyuan, are you sixteen years old? Why are you so thin. ”

Zhang Cheng is two meters tall, with broad shoulders and strong body, Tang Yuan is a head shorter than him, but he is as thin as a hemp rod, black and thin.

"I don't like meat, and rice is scarce, so I have to eat wild fruits. ”

"Isn't that starving?"

"No, eating less is just a lack of energy intake, and I don't feel hungry, and besides, the adults don't let me exert my strength, and the lack of energy doesn't affect my daily work. ”

Zhang Cheng scratched his head and tightened the girl's thin waist with one hand: "Why don't you like to eat meat?"

"Venison is so unpalatable!"

Zhang Cheng suddenly understood, in order to ensure the physical strength and cultivation of the middle-aged man, the good meat was consumed by them, like Zhang Zhong's grandfather, an old man who is almost eighty, one person can eat a wild boar's hind leg in one meal, but good meat does not mean that there is one, and when you meet a group of wild boars, you often only catch two or three of them, and the others are not easy to catch.

"In the future, you will be my daughter-in-law, you will eat whatever I eat!"

"My father also said this to my mother, but he is the only martial artist in the family, and we will all starve if I don't guarantee my father's physical strength, but it is rare for you to say this, it is our big man. ”

Zhang Cheng is a little weak-hearted, to be honest, if he encounters a wild boar or a wild sheep, he can catch at most one, if a pig-headed sheep wants to resist, he is not the opponent of the prey at all, and it is not easy to ensure that he can escape with his whole body, let alone hunting.

The beasts in the mountains are very alert, and they will not easily encounter the monks, and those who are willing to show up in front of the monks are beast cultivators who can't eat them, and it is not easy for them to feed themselves, and they can't help the monks, so the establishment of the companionship relationship is that the monks suffer a little more and gather and scatter from their hearts.

"I'll do my best to make you eat the same meat as I do!"

Tang Yuan leaned closer to Zhang Cheng's arms and asked him, "How far have you cultivated?"

"The immortal and demon passage has been opened to the lower jaw. ”

"You're not even eighteen yet, are you?"

"Less than two months after turning seventeen, I started cultivating at the age of twelve. ”

"Become a warrior in two years, you are a rare genius, more than twice as fast as others, I haven't opened the dantian acupoint yet, judging by this speed, I am only a second-rate qualification, or even lower, with your cultivation now, I can't guarantee anything, but I know your sincerity, that's enough." ”

Cultivators have third-level qualifications, regardless of the speed-up effect of auxiliary means, Liang Guoren with first-level qualifications are promoted to samurai in three years, martial arts in nine years, and martial arts in twenty-four years, the second level is doubled, and the third level is doubled, and the Qi people are more than double the time compared to the Liang people, Zhang Cheng's two-year promotion to samurai is the only special case, otherwise the second master Zhang Fuchen will not give him the pill.

Two young people who don't know how to love walk together like this, during which they inevitably study the knowledge of the human body left by their elders, but they all know to restrain their desires, and they are afraid that Tang Yuan will be killed by accidentally becoming pregnant.

"Brother Cheng, there are already eighty plants, and there is one eight-leaf plant, and one plant is worth ten!"

"It's almost time to get to the beach, maybe it's because of the danger of the sea beasts that so few people are left behind. ”

"Didn't you say that the Double Monk was poisonous, why do sea beasts eat people?"

"Only high-level sea beasts eat us, there is no specific explanation, maybe the sea beast's exercises are special!"

The closer to the coast, the more horse orchids, when it is dozens of miles away, the black horse is not willing to take a step forward, the leopard cub has already fled, but the two people who can pick one plant in about a mile, and can satisfy their desires by picking thirty plants forget the danger in four eyes, and walk to the coast in one step, seemingly stupid and don't know how to draw a circle to find, in fact, they want to see what the sea is like.

In addition to the horse chestnut orchid, a lot of spiritual objects were also collected: a lightning strike wood black charcoal was generally uprooted in its entirety; three pieces of meteorite iron weighed nearly half a catty and were worth a fortune; a nest of ant eggs was exchanged for a hundred catties of deer king's spiritual blood and the ant king; three carving feathers consumed ten war knives, and they had to help the eagle king make claw sets; a python king's relics did not pay any price, but they were too heavy, and they were tired and half dead every day carrying this thing.

There was a loud sound of waves crashing on the shore in front, and the two people finally collected two hundred spiritual grasses, including a few eight-leaf and nine-leaf plants, but the four eyes were open in disbelief: the front is a high cliff on the coast, and it is only to climb up to the top of the cliff, the strange rocks are craggy and do not see the trees, but there is a piece of silver glittering grass swaying, and the area is not less than ten meters square, as if artificially cultivated on the flat ground next to a boulder.

"Silverleaf grass?"

The sound of the two swallowing saliva could be heard by each other.

"You want?"

The sound of thought sounded in his mind, Tang Yuan twisted his head and looked around, suddenly looked up and saw a big peng soaring in the sky, and hurriedly pulled a handful Zhang Cheng pointed to the sky: "That, sea beast!"

Zhang Cheng tilted his neck and looked at Dapeng, put down the spirit object on his back and communicated: "It's so unlucky, how did I meet you? Are you going to eat both of us?"

Dapeng shook his posture and slowly landed on the boulder next to the silver leaf grass, and replied condescendingly: "I'm not hungry, and I don't need to seize the source of the promotion, I'm going to soar, before leaving, I want to find the python king here to avenge my daughter, but unfortunately it failed to advance and died, this silver leaf grass is the spiritual thing that its remnants of the body were bred for nourishment, I feel that there is a kind breath in the young man's body, so I want to leave some fate, who knows when it will be exchanged for a sky-high return." ”

Zhang Cheng was suspicious, and Tang Yuan was already sitting cross-legged on the ground waiting to die.

In the concept of the Qi people, they will not die when they encounter an irresistible opponent, just like they hunt, when they encounter a wandering beast king who has no territory, the family sends Emperor Wu, and the beast king will close his eyes and wait for death, unless he has the ability to resist, there will be a battle.

When the high-level monk's own spiritual energy is sufficient, it will form a spiritual pressure aura on the low-level monk, and it is easy to judge whether it can resist by feeling the pressure.

"What did you feel?"

King Peng thought for a moment and replied: "I don't feel clearly, maybe it's because of the low realm, if it's other sea beasts, they should be very willing to eat you, but my feelings tell me that it's more beneficial for me for you to live, I am a sea beast cultivator, and now I have a trace of divine sense, and it is impossible to make a mistake in feeling, I want to leave my divine sense logo and hand it to you, and when you ascend, you have to promise to accompany me, at least let me follow you." ”

A cultivator's feelings come from the soul, and the clearer the feeling, the less likely it is to go wrong, and it is precisely because Zhang Cheng does not feel the aura of death here that he will approach the shore.

"What kind of condition is this? "Asking to follow yourself, and hand over the Divine Consciousness Logo, doesn't it know what the Divine Consciousness Logo means to the cultivator?

King Peng looked at Zhang Cheng and shook his head: "Your realm is too low, how can I hand it over to you?"

After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and turned around to pull out a spirit feather, and his eyes stared at it for a moment to engrave a spirit pattern.

"This is my divine sense, do you believe me? I don't know what the conditions are, and I don't need you to swear, I can do whatever my soul feels. ”

"God, aren't you afraid that pulling out the spirit feather will affect your cultivation?"

"I'm about to soar, not bad at that, and how can I prove my sincerity if I don't do this?"

There is only one Pengwang natal spirit feather, which is a natural storage space containing spirituality, which can store spiritual objects, such treasures may exist on the Lanyun Continent, but only legends have not seen empirical evidence, this kind of spiritual objects will lose their spirituality with the death of the beast cultivator, and it is impossible for the living beast cultivator to transfer the natal spiritual object, which means that a life is lost.

Zhang Cheng was very surprised that King Peng would be willing to pay such a big price to show his sincerity, but nodded in agreement with King Peng's statement: "I promise, can you avoid it a little? I want those silver leaf grass." ”

King Peng flew into the air: "I'll help you be vigilant, by the way, I will help you refine the storage space, I will give you a ride after you collect it, the treasures in the sea are endless, I don't need it anymore, leave this point in the spirit feather to you." ”

The spirit feather in King Peng's claw seemed to melt by itself, and the feather tube engraved with the spirit pattern was molded into a small ball with a diameter of one centimeter, and the other parts were integrated into the outer wall, and a lifelike feather on the ball was agile and elegant, and then it took up the spiritual objects all over the ground and loaded it in.

After collecting the silver-leaved grass, the sky was already dark, and the scenery seen by standing on the edge of the cliff was deeply in the minds of the two: the cliff was thousands of meters high, the huge waves below were monstrous, the white foam rolled and flew up to the top of the cliff, and the endless sea surged with the sound of waves shaking the sky.

King Peng said: "You guys get out of the way, you will have to appreciate it later, this boulder is not an extraordinary stone, it comes from outside the sky, I will give it to you, please remember to promise me!"

Zhang Cheng picked up Tang Yuan and retreated to the bottom of the cliff and said, "I promised you that I won't forget!"

"After I ascend, the next king will be born in the sea beast, the sea beast cultivation generation can only fly up to one king, we pursue the method of devouring cultivation, you don't go near the coast again, next time you won't be so lucky, I don't want to have the same kind of people compete with me to follow you, if you reach the moment before the ascension, you can try to enter the deepest part of the seabed, it is a trench 50,000 miles away, there is a jade bottle buried deep under the sea, I don't have the ability to get it, I think it should belong to you." ”

"Isn't that really a needle in a haystack?"

"It has been more than 100,000 years since the record, that jade bottle has always been there, all cultivators who have reached the realm of ascension can sense its existence, it is easy to find, but I don't dare to approach, its spiritual pressure makes me feel the breath of death, but your aura is very strange, it seems that your aura can make my cultivation twice as effective with half the effort, it is very similar to the breath of that jade bottle, but it is not so rich and depressing, I feel that it belongs to you. ”

After King Peng finished speaking, he grabbed it in the air, and the boulder then collapsed, revealing a huge black meteorite inside!
