Chapter 213: Ghost Fire
To go around the demon habitat means to go deep into the interior of the Necronomicon Mountains!
What does this mean? Very dangerous!
"That's a dangerous place." Feng Xiaoyi said.
"Yes." The old man does not deny it.
"The seniors seem to be interested in the living place of the demon clan?" Feng Xiaoyi said.
"Wrong! is interested in an unknown rumor about them. The old man corrected.
"What rumors?" Feng Xiaoyi asked.
The old men also gathered their minds and listened attentively.
The old man smiled and said, "The rumors that caused them to change from normal human race to that appearance."
"It turns out that the demon is also our human race?" The old man said in amazement.
"How are you thinking, do you want to go and find out with me?" The old man asked again.
"Seniors can come and go freely in the Necromantic Mountains?"
Feng Xiaoyi asked, not that he was suspicious, but that he had to be cautious in that dangerous place.
As strong as Xiyangzi, who even the ancient strong clan didn't dare to provoke easily, he almost died in the Necromantic Mountain Range, and he didn't know what the strength of the rickety old man was, so he wouldn't do it hastily.
"In the depths of the Necronomicon Mountains, there is a ghost river, called the Black Blood River, as long as you don't go there, I can keep you safe, if you want to break into there, I have to take you back." The old man said.
"Ghost River, this name sounds terrible." The old men muttered.
"Okay, I'll go with my seniors." Feng Xiaoyi agreed to come down.
"Brother Feng Xiao, do you really want to go? It's a hellish place, and it's dangerous. The old man shook his head and whispered.
"Don't worry, the old man said that he would be able to do it if he was safe, and he wouldn't lie." The old man said.
"Don't get me wrong, senior, I'm not questioning the ability of my senior, but that place..."
The old man smiled and said nothing, he knew what these people were worried about, because it was really a dangerous place, otherwise he wouldn't have said that he could only protect the wind and escape in front of the Black Blood River.
That river, even when he was at his peak, was also jealous!
"After that day, let's go, just go to the Mu clan to do something first." The old man said.
Since Feng Xiaoyi agreed, his heart was settled, whether it was danger or calamity, he would deal with whatever he came.
A day later, the old man took the three of them back, Feng Xiaoyi and the people of the He family briefly explained a few words, and the three of them went on the road.
The old man took the two of them, stepped down, disappeared in place, and soon came to the place where Feng Xiaoyi said.
This is the place where they met the demon when they returned, and the old man put him down and said, "I'll go to the Mu clan with Xunyin to return one thing to them, and you wait for me first."
As he spoke, he took Mu Xunyin away again, and half an hour later, a person came back and said, "The matter has been done, let's go in."
Behind the dense forest in front of him was the Necronomicon Mountains, and a few minutes later, Feng Xiaoyi led the old man to the place where the two sides met.
"Whoosh!"
In the wild bushes, two black shadows burst out, and as soon as they approached, two demons took the initiative to emerge.
One of them was naturally the one they had first met, while the other, taller, nearly a foot tall, with thick bones, and even if there was no flesh, the arms were a little thicker than his.
When the little demon saw him, he was slightly excited, while the big demon stared at him curiously, pacing like a thin monkey.
"The demon clan lives deep in the Necromantic Mountains, isolated from the world for an unknown number of thousands of years, closed to themselves, unable to connect with the outside world, and has become like this again, so they can't speak, and it's hard to understand what we mean."
"We suspect that their origins can be traced back to that fault history, that is, it was at that time that they changed from human to demonic." The old man whispered.
Regarding the history of that fault, Feng Xiaoyi has also heard people say that it was a very old era.
The history of this world, it is rumored that it is very primitive in the ancient period, not to mention the history of faults, even the deeds of that era, there is almost no record, it is the post-ancient period of the era of the four gods, and the world has only begun to reach prosperity.
The old man said that the origin of the demons can be traced back to the history of the fault, which means that their clan has existed in the world for a long time, and the age is not shorter than those hidden worlds.
"The strength of their clan, according to the size of the body, this small thing can be compared to the Emperor Realm, and the larger one can withstand the Great Emperor Realm." The old man said.
The little demon stood obediently beside him, and after the big demon had seen enough, he gestured there, and it moved.
"Looks like they've been waiting for you here for a long time, and they're all in a hurry to take you in."
The old man smiled lightly, and just as they were about to move, the two guys pointed at him and gestured with the old man.
Looking at the meaning of their movements, it seems that Feng Xiaoyi can go with them, but the old man can't, and he can't go in.
"These guys, they don't want the location of their clan land to be revealed, and they are worried that outsiders will disturb their lives." The old man couldn't laugh or cry.
Going alone? Of course Feng Xiaoyi wouldn't go, so he had to explain to them patiently, but these two guys refused to live or die, so they just shook their heads and waved their hands to refuse.
There was no way, Feng Xiaoyi would not be in danger alone, since this was the case, he had to break this idea and could only go back.
And seeing that they were leaving, the two demons hurriedly stopped them, and after blocking the people, they thought, weighed, and thought of countermeasures for a while.
After being in trouble for a while, the little demon didn't communicate with the big demon, as if he was persuading, or giving advice, anyway, they just didn't understand.
But it can be seen that after the little demon said this, the big demon opened his eyes, looked abrupt, and patted its head.
Then, the two guys went to their own side, made a gesture of please, and motioned for the two to go.
"They agreed."
"Seems like so."
The two walked in, and sure enough, the demon didn't stop him, and he was still leading the way.
A few minutes later, the two demons led them to a wetland with black mud and fragments of rotting bones nearby.
Xiao Yi has seen this kind of earthy wind, and the last time the withered old three painted it.
"Senior, don't you need some preparation?" Feng Xiaoyi asked.
"No, this dead thing is infected with the assimilated soil, and the breath is too disgusting and repulsive, just have me to protect it." The old man said.
"It's me who is overthinking."
Feng Xiaoyi didn't want to paint this kind of thing, and the smell it emitted didn't smell pleasant, like that disgusting dead earth.
The two demons didn't react when they saw them standing, and they wanted to call Tu Mu, but at this time, the rickety old man made a move, and helped Feng Xiaoyi hide the breath of the living and completely block it.
The monsters and evil creatures of the Necronomicon Mountain Range have a particularly sensitive sense of smell, and once they find that there is a living breath, they will kill them wildly, so if you want to enter it safely, you must not expose your living breath.
There are generally two methods, covering up and shielding, and they chose the latter, and the demon saw it and had no objection.
The two demons led the way, followed by Feng Xiaoyi and the others, and walked towards the wetland, and after more than half an hour, the wetland gradually became a poisonous gas swamp.
The swamp was filled with a gray mist, and from time to time a fist-sized bubble bubbled from the rancid sludge, and there were many tiny things wriggling on it, and it was disgusting to look at.
"Watch their pace and follow their footsteps." The old man reminded.
There was no end in sight to this swamp, the wild grass had long since died and rotted, and there were black sewage everywhere.
At first glance, the mud is everywhere, giving people the illusion that they will fall into it as soon as they step out of it.
But when the two demons walked in, they realized that there was an invisible winding path that ran through the entire swamp.
"Isn't it strange that something is squirming on the road under your feet?" The old man said.
Feng Xiaoyi nodded, he had been questioning for a long time, and when he stepped on the first foot, he felt that he was not stepping on the dirt, but on countless writhing things.
"There are countless corpse bone worms under this quagmire, they are at most the size of a finger, shuttling through the mud, and the people on it must not fall down in the end, otherwise it will only take an instant, even if you are in the Great Emperor Realm, they will devour people to the point that there are no bones left." The old man said.
"My chest is depressing." Feng Xiaoyi said.
"The miasma here has the side effect of confusing people's minds, if you really can't hold it, squeak in advance, and I will help you block it." The old man said.
Feng Xiaoyi endured it, the old man didn't make a move, it should be used as a special training for him, and he would accept it first.
This swamp is very large, and after walking for a long time, the already drowsy sky slowly darkens again.
"It's dark?"
Finally, following the two demons, they walked out of the swamp without danger, in the primitive wasteland and old forest, and they had not walked far before the sky darkened.
The barren forest was not dense, but rather sparse, but within an hour of entering, it was already so dark that it seemed like nightfall.
At first, Feng Xiaoyi thought that they had been on the road for too long, and that it was night, but then he realized that he seemed to be wrong.
In the dark barren forest, there was fog drifting through from time to time, and the visibility was less than ten meters, and soon, Feng Xiaoyi saw some floating black shadows.
He thought it was his own dazzled, stared at it, and then took a closer look, but these black shadows suddenly burst into his eyes, and in an instant, his mind fell into darkness, like falling into the cave of lonely souls and undead.
Feng Xiaoyi's mind swelled and cracked, as if there were thousands of powerful ghosts screaming, and as if there were countless insects and ants gnawing, it was unbearable.
"Broken!"
At this moment, a soft shout sounded in his ears, and he woke up like a dream in an instant, waking up from a nightmare!
"If you don't wake up, you'll be a puppet here." Next to him, the old man said softly.
There were beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, and his dark eyes were crawling with blood-colored filaments, and these red eyes were so red that they seemed to be dripping blood.
Let go of your hands, the palms of your palms were stabbed from being clenched too tightly, and a trace of blood flowed out.
"Thank you seniors for saving me."
His head was tingling, his throat was dry, and Feng Xiaoyi barely made a sound.
"Look ahead, take a good look at what you can see." In the dark, the old man said softly.
Calm down, according to the old man's words, Feng Xiaoyi concentrated, looked at the front with his heart, the darkness, watched, watched, gradually, his eyes returned to normal, the night receded, and the surrounding scene was slowly revealed.
"It's not dark?"
A strange scene happened, the surroundings were still drowsy, and the night did not come.
"It's not that it's dark, it's that the world in your heart is dark." The old man said.
"What's going on?" Feng Xiaoyi asked.
"This barren forest is called the Misty Mountain Forest, full of resentment of the undead, those who come in will have illusions, and those who are not strong will be unconsciously stifled and become a flesh and blood puppet." The old man said.
Feng Xiaoyi was shocked, so he almost caught the road just now, and almost died!
Fortunately, he brought a hidden master like the rickety old man, otherwise he would not have known that he would have been killed by these two skulls.
"Hmm!"
Suddenly, the two skulls in front of him were frightened, and Feng Xiaoyi's thoughts were interrupted instantly, and then, the two guys dragged them into the grass and hid.
Before Feng Xiaoyi could understand what was going on, he was taken into the grass, and the two skulls gestured twice in a panic, as if telling them to hide and not go out.
Out of the corner of his eye, Feng Xiaoyi looked straight ahead, and he saw two turquoise flames suspended in the wilderness in the distance, like a pair of eyes, exuding a cold aura.
A thought flashed in his heart, could it be that these two demons were frightened by these two phantom fires.
"It's these two ghost fires, it's a bit troublesome! It's better to avoid them and don't touch them. The old man muttered in a low voice.
"Ghost fire?"
Feng Xiaoyi was surprised to hear this, and he couldn't imagine that even the rickety old man would retreat from this turquoise ghostly fire, and he would have to dodge it even more.
However, at this time, the snow hatred in his body moved, and he flew out uncontrollably, and with a 'choking' sound, it automatically came out of its sheath, turning into a cold light and shooting towards the two ghostly fires, leaving only the scabbard to fall on the spot.
"Not good!"
Seeing this, the old man shouted in a low voice, and the two demons crouching next to him were even more shocked.
