Lu Chen took a step back, looking as if he was frightened, his face was tense, one hand was protected on his chest, but the other hand was hanging down to his side, and then quietly stretched out behind his back in the shadows, as if he had grasped something in the dark.

At that moment, the sword was like a bright moon, the light bloomed and illuminated the entire forest, and the wind whistled like a rolling torrent, but in the next moment, the sword blade in the light suddenly stopped, and it stopped an inch in front of Lu Chen.

The sword light in the sky fell like a rain of stars, gradually converging, and finally silently merged into the long sword as bright as autumn water, and the darkness swarmed in, drowning the figure on the opposite side in the same shadow.

It's vaguely a woman.

I couldn't see her face clearly, and the only light in the dark forest at the moment was the sword in her hand.

The sound of the wind in the forest rose again, and the faint wind blew through, and the blood fell from the sky.

A drop of blood fell on the tip of the sword, trembling gently, with a thrilling and strange beauty.

Lu Chen only felt that his eyebrows were a little cold, as if an invisible sword had stabbed down at that moment just now. The sword stopped in front of his eyes, silent in the darkness.

"Why don't you hide?"

A calm, but pleasant female voice came from the dark shadows ahead.

Lu Chen took a deep breath and said, "Your Dao is too high, and the sword is too urgent, I can't dodge." ”

The woman in the darkness snorted and said, "In that case, what is the purpose of you secretly holding the blade behind your back?"

Lu Chen immediately raised his right hand hanging by his side, and without the slightest hesitation, he threw out the black short sword that was grasped in the palm of his hand. After a few moments, there was a muffled "poof" sound, and the black sword was stuck in the trunk of a tree not far away.

Lu Chen opened his hands, signaled that he was unarmed, and then slowly put them down. The bright sword still stopped in front of him, without the slightest shake or retraction.

The night wind blew, and the drop of blood on the tip of the sword suddenly split into two halves after a few trembling and writhing, silently falling from both sides of the blade to the dark ground.

In that moment, the sword light of the long sword seemed to light up a little, and the sharp tip of the sword seemed to raise its head slightly. There was silence all around, and in the depths of Lu Chen's eyes, his pupils also shrank slightly.

But in the blink of an eye, the long sword suddenly retreated, silently disappeared into the darkness, returned to the woman's figure, and disappeared.

There was a little light in the shadow, it seemed to be her bright and clear gaze, she glanced at Lu Chen, stopped speaking, turned away, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.

And at the moment when she turned around, the darkness was surging and sinking, and there was suddenly a reddish light flashing in the shadows, Lu Chen saw the light and shadow of that moment, although it was a little blurry, but he still saw a red feather shawl draped over the woman's shoulders.

Like the wings of a bird, it spreads out behind her in the night, soaring in the night, floating into the distance.

Lu Chen stood in place for a while, his brows gradually furrowed, as if he was thinking about something, after a while, he walked to the tree trunk next to him and retrieved the black short sword, and he didn't know what movement he had in his hand, as if the black sword disappeared after trembling slightly in this dark shadow.

Then, Lu Chen took a few steps forward, then half-squatted down, the surrounding bloody qi began to permeate, blood stained this forest land red, and not far away, a terrifying demon beast's body split in two and fell to the ground.

"Black Devil Bear ......" Lu Chen said in a low voice, then walked over and flicked the remnants of this demon beast with his foot, "The demon pill is gone, it should have been taken away by her." That sword was so powerful...... It should be 'Yuehua Slash'?"

He was silent for a moment, then stood up, looked at the dark depths in the distance, and whispered to himself, "When did such a powerful young genius come out of the Kunlun Sect?"

"However, the words of the shawl ......" Lu Chen paused when he said this, shook his head but didn't say anything more, turned around and walked back the way he came.

In an instant, darkness surrounded him, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the shadows.

Early the next morning, after Han Nanzu and the others woke up, the group of four embarked on the journey to Heijia Mountain again.

Maybe it was gradually going deeper into the land of confusion, they encountered more demon beasts in this day than yesterday, but under the leadership of Lu Chen, they still avoided most of the dangers along the way, and after half a day, they finally saw the peak of Heijia Mountain.

Because it is almost impossible for ordinary people to enter the land of confusion, and almost all of the people who come here are Terran monks, there are many places between the mountains and fields that are not inhabited, and of course there are no roads.

However, there are exceptions to everything, for example, in some popular places, the more Terran monks come, and if they step around, there will be some paths. For example, under a small hill where Lu Chen and the other four are standing now, there is a path with a three-way crossing.

Lu Chen pointed in the southwest direction and said to Han Nanzu and the others: "If you walk in this direction, you will be able to reach Heijia Mountain in half an hour at most." ”

Han Nanzu nodded, looking at the seemingly inconspicuous mountain in the distance, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Yi Xin, who was standing on the side, looked around with some curiosity, and finally his eyes fell on the path under his feet, and asked Lu Chen: "Brother Lu, did you just say that this is the road that many people came to step on before?"

Lu Chen said: "Yes." ”

Yi Xin said: "Could it be that everyone is going to Heijia Mountain?

Lu Chen said with a smile: "That's not it, although there are Xiwu Flowers and some other spiritual materials on Heijia Mountain, they are almost all lowest-level one-grain spiritual objects, and they can't attract too many people." The monks who often go here go to other places. ”

"Another place?" Yi Xin's gaze drifted to another intersection, where the road winds forward and leads to the southeast, "What is over there, is there any good place to go?"

Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "Hundreds of miles south from here, there are indeed several well-known spiritual material production areas, 'Qingkui Cave', 'Wufeng Mountain', and 'Yellow Mud', and there are usually many monks who go there. ”

"I see. Yi Xin nodded and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, you are really knowledgeable. ”

Lu Chen shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Don't forget that I eat this bowl of rice." ”

Yi Xin smiled, but He Gang, who was on the side, looked a little unconvinced, and snorted and said, "If you want me to say, although there were several places here in the past, the most famous ones are clearly not those places." ”

Yi Xin was stunned for a moment and said, "Senior brother, what do you know?"

He Gang was arrogant and said: "Before coming here, I had already done my homework, and eight hundred miles south of here is the battlefield of the Great War of the Righteous Demons ten years ago, that is, where the famous 'Barren Valley' is located, and that is the place where countless monks want to go the most." ”

"Brother Lu, am I right?" He Gang squinted at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, his face was flat, and then said, "Yes." ”
