Chapter 44: Tides
The closer to the lake, the more elixirs there are, but the more powerful demon beasts are also more common, if it is Ji Mo or Mu Baiyun alone, they would not dare to lean to the edge of the lake, but now that the two of them have joined forces, they both believe that within the Qi Refining Realm, no one will be able to pose a threat to them.

The four of them walked in that direction for about half an hour, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and they encountered a few powerful demon beasts halfway, but these demon beasts were all unwilling to fight, and the two sides fought a few moves, turned around and ran, Ji Mo looked at it quite puzzled: "What's the matter?" Didn't they all say that in the Blue Moon Lake, the demon beasts were extremely fierce, why did these people in front of them seem to be chasing them behind them, and they didn't want to entangle with us at all? ā
Mu Baiyun and the others were also quite puzzled, Wei Qiu thought for a while and said, "Could it be that some powerful demon beasts will come out in front of them, and they will all be scared away, right?" ā
"These are all first-order peak demon beasts, they can scare them so much that they turn around and run, they don't even have the heart to resist at all, how can they be second-order demon beasts, such an existence is not in our southern region." Mu Baiyun twisted his brows.
"Whatever, let's take a look." After Ji Mo couldn't understand this reason, he didn't think about it anymore, and continued to move forward, and after half an hour, the Blue Moon Lake with a thick fog had appeared in their sight, and there were more and more demon beasts fleeing to the periphery, while more and more monks were running inward.
The closer to the Blue Moon Lake, the more spirit grass and elixir, Ji Mo and his party had already picked the purple leaf grass that Wei Qiu needed and Zhao Hu's pine pu and painstaking vine on the way, in addition, each of them also got a few precious elixirs that could be sold at a low price, except for their group, there were monks in other places who were digging for treasures.
"Something is wrong, let's not move forward." Mu Baiyun suddenly spoke, Ji Mo, Wei Qiu, and Zhao Hu all stopped when they heard the sound, and looked at him together.
"Blue Moon Lake is less than two thousand meters away from us, the closer we are to Blue Moon Lake in the past, the more demon beasts there are, except for the occasional high-level qi refiner with amazing combat power who will come here to snatch a few elixirs and spirit grasses, it can be said that it is difficult to find people, but today the demon beasts here are rushing out one by one, and there are more and more monks coming here, this is too abnormal." Mu Baiyun said.
The location of the Blue Moon Lake is very peculiar, among which the northwest two sides are close to the two peaks, the top is a cliff that towers like a cloud, the bottom is the lake that has been foggy for many years, and the southeast is a lush grassland, the sky above the head is thousands of miles, the white clouds are drifting, and the whole picture looks like an indescribable quiet and serene.
On weekdays, there are many powerful demon beasts roaming around here, and it is difficult for human monks to approach the lake, but today it is unusually quiet, except for the monks who are constantly running towards here, desperately digging for treasures, not even a shadow of a demon beast can be seen.
Ji Mo stepped on the soft grass, looked at the dense fog in front of him from a distance, and then felt the somewhat excessive aura here, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "With the geographical environment here, it is indeed understandable that the demon beasts are dominating and refusing to leave, if we human cultivators cultivate here for a long time, the speed will be much faster than outside." ā
"That's right, but now the demon beasts here are running clean, it's really weird." Mu Baiyun looked solemn.
"Well, could it be that something happened in the lake?" Ji Mo also felt that it was unreasonable, she cast her eyes on the dense fog that was about two kilometers away, and her eyebrows were full of doubts.
"Oh no, this situation looks a lot like the tide of Blue Moon Lake!" Ji Mo's mind suddenly flashed an incident that the master had mentioned, and he couldn't help but scream.
"Roar!" At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the lake, and together with this sound, Ji Mo only felt that the blood around his body had coagulated, his hands and feet had become stiff, his throat was dry, and he could neither move nor make a sound, she was like this, Mu Baiyun, Wei Qiu, and Zhao Hu, as well as all the monks around.
"Let's go!" After that roar fell, it took more than a dozen breaths for Ji Mo's body to return to normal, and he was about to tell everyone to flee, but Mu Baiyun shouted out one step faster than her, Ji Mo didn't have time to think about it, he dragged Wei Qiu with one hand, and Zhao Hu with the other, and ran back with Mu Baiyun.
Not only them, but all the people around the Blue Moon Lake were almost frightened after hearing this roar, and after their bodies recovered their movements, they didn't need to be reminded, and they all rushed towards the periphery of the Blue Moon Lake like arrows off the string.
Because this area can't fly, everyone can only walk on two legs, in terms of speed alone, Ji Mo's group has a lot of advantages, there are a total of four people in their group, Ji Mo is a double cultivation of the spirit body, and the refining body has reached the realm of detachment, and the cultivation is the Heavenly Demon Refining Body Technique, and the body is not comparable to people of the same level in terms of speed and resistance.
Mu Baiyun is a sword cultivator, and he is stronger than ordinary monks in terms of sensitivity, coupled with the cultivation of the tenth-level peak of the refining body and the sixth order of qi refining, although he can't fly with the sword, his running speed is not much worse than Ji Mo, only Wei Qiu and Zhao Hu are a little slower, but the two of them are led by Ji Mo to run, and their speed can't be slowed down.
The four of them ran all the way, and when they ran for dozens of kilometers, they suddenly heard the roar of the water waves behind them, and along with the roar of the water waves, there were countless desperate screams, Ji Mo's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said to Mu Baiyun who was following her on the right hand: "Catch me, I'll take you away." ā
The roaring waves behind Mu Baiyun naturally heard it, seeing that the roar was getting closer and closer, Mu Baiyun couldn't think about it, and stretched out his hand to wrap around Ji Mo's waist, it was definitely not that he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but that Ji Mo took a person with his left and right hands, and he had no other way than to hold Ji Mo's waist, he could borrow Ji Mo's strength.
Ji Mo naturally didn't have the time to care about these at this time, after seeing Mu Baiyun wrapping around his waist, the Heavenly Demon Refining Body Trick in his body flew to the extreme, and with a clear roar in his mouth, the speed of moving forward suddenly increased by more than two times, Zhao Hu, Wei Qiu and Mu Baiyun, the three of them were taken by her, and they only felt that they were flying under their feet, and the people seemed to be flying.
This speed can be described as an arrow from the string, but it is still a roaring wave, seeing that the figures of the four people are about to be swallowed up by the huge waves rushing behind him, Ji Mo's speed increased again, and the four figures, superimposed together, almost turned into a bolt of lightning, but in a few breaths, they rushed to the periphery of Mochizuki Lake and climbed a flat peak, and at the moment when they stepped on this peak, the surging torrent behind them also followed, and hit the waist of the peak with a bang, and retreated.
