the southern border;

It is said that in the extreme east of the southern border of the Tianchu Continent, there is an endless Cangqiang Mountain Range, which is a natural barrier between the Eastern Ridge and the southern border, but because of the thin spiritual energy of the border, very few monks will come to this mountain range.

High-level cultivators naturally have teleportation arrays when they travel between the two realms, and it doesn't take a long time to cross this Cangqiang Mountain Range at all. Moreover, the so-called rare treasures inside have long been unsightly to them.

The people who often go in and out of this dense forest are usually a group of monks who build foundations or practice qi. This mountain range is so vast that monks have not fully explored it for thousands of years, and monks often find some extremely rare spirit plants or monsters in it. However, the natural poisonous miasma of this mountain range also made many monks rest their hearts, after all, there are still many dangerous places in this mountain range, and if you are not careful, you will die in it, and the gains outweigh the losses.

There is a small piece of dangerous land in the middle of the Cangqiang Mountains that is known as the Ghost Grove, and this extremely interesting rumor has been circulating in several small cities nearby recently, and the number of monks who have appeared there has increased for a while.

……

Ghost Grove;

The three scattered figures sat under a large tree to rest.

One of them, a young man dressed in gray, was around sixteen or seventeen, with a relatively delicate appearance, and was carefully digging up a few of the more common velvet spirit grasses.

A tall young man beside him said, "Jia Feng, why don't you let go of anything, ten velvet spirit grasses can't sell a spirit stone together." Why don't you come here and rest, and we'll have to hurry in a while? ”

The young man named Jia Feng dug up the last velvet grass in his hand before walking to them and sitting down: "It doesn't take much effort, I saw it and let it go, so I'm not stupid?" Haha"

"Brother Feng, you love to joke, who doesn't know that you are going to save spirit stones to buy jewelry for Sister Mu Qing." The remaining delicate-looking girl pouted unhappily after saying this.

Jia Feng's face turned red when he was told by these direct words, and he said nervously: "Xiao Xinmei, don't talk nonsense, I'm ...... I'm just going to keep it for the Qi Nourishing Pill. ”

The girl just wanted to reply, but was suddenly interrupted by the tall young man Zhao Feiyi: "Shhh, don't make a sound, do you hear anything?" ”

Both of them were startled by his serious expression, and nervously watched their surroundings.

"Hey, hey, it's been discovered." Jumping from a big tree was a male monk who practiced the sixth layer of Qi cultivation. He looked a little obscene, but he saw his eyes the size of mung beans looking up and down at the people in front of him, and after circulating on the storage bags of several people for a while, he stopped looking at the girl, and his eyes exuded a fine light.

Zhao Xin, who saw the red fruit star, was so frightened that he hid behind Jia Feng.

"Just a few of you little rabbit cubs who practice qi at the third or fourth level dare to come to this ghost forest, Lao Tzu is impatient to see that you are alive. Acquaintances leave the storage bag and that girl, and Lao Tzu will let you live. Otherwise, hehe...... Leave all your life to me. Step by step, the monk approached them.

"Don't you think about it." As soon as the words fell, the tall young man decisively used a trick of fine gold, and a large sharp knife condensed with spiritual power rushed towards the monk. And Jia Feng also reacted, and immediately a fire dragon was shot out of his hand.

The monk on the opposite side didn't pay attention to it at all, and with a wave of his hand, he knocked all the sharp knives to the ground, and the sound of 'ding, ding, ding, ding' was endless, and he jumped for life, easily avoiding the fire dragon. I saw that he came to the two of them in a flash, and used two spiritual powers respectively, and the two of them were knocked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

There was a huge gap in the cultivation between the monks, even if they were one order apart, not to mention that he was two orders higher than them, and he could easily subdue them.

"Brother, Brother Feng, how are you." Xiao Xin shouted, and when she was about to run over, she only felt a flower in front of her, and a figure appeared in front of her.

"Little girl, where are you going?" Standing in her way was the obscene monk, who sealed her aura with his hand. Then he carried her behind him in a flash.

"Brother, help" Zhao Xin hung upside down behind the monk, and she could only shout like a mortal after losing her spiritual power.

"Don't." Zhao Feiyi didn't care about his injuries and shot again. But he didn't expect to be slapped head-on by the monk before he could make a move.

"Stinky boy, don't force Lao Tzu to die." After speaking, he snatched the storage bag from him, took off Jia Feng's storage bag and turned around and walked away.

"Xiao Xin......" Zhao Feiyi struggled to get up, there was a sharp pain in his body, and a mouthful of blood spurted out again.

"It's all my fault, it's all because of my incompetence, I have to come to the ghost forest......" Jia Feng, who had just gotten up, blamed himself.

Suddenly, a scream was heard in the distance.

"It's Xiao Xin." The two of them didn't have time to take the pill before they ran forward.

I saw a large rock flying in the distance.

When I got closer, I realized that the rock moved, and this rock had a rough human shape, a tall body, and thick arms. It looks bulky and moves very flexibly. A pair of crimson eyes flashed with a hint of cunning. There was also a person on its back, it was Zhao Xin just now.

The two looked at the rock monster in front of them in horror, but they didn't act rashly, could the rumors be true?

The rock monster put Zhao Xin in front of the two of them, threw down a few more storage bags and left quickly, disappearing from their sight in the blink of an eye.

"Xin'er, are you okay?" Zhao Feiyi nervously came to check on Zhao Xin and found that he was not injured.

"Brother, I'm fine, was that a red rock monster just now?" Zhao Xin seemed to have completely forgotten the fright just now, and shouted excitedly.

"It seems to be true, exactly as it was rumored." Zhao Feiyi nodded.

It turns out that this ghost forest is a well-known dangerous place nearby, and monsters and poisonous insects are everywhere, but what makes the monks most frightened is that there is a group of casual monks here who make a living by robbing the monks who come in. Some of them have vicious methods, and after robbing their belongings, they will kill people and kill them. Some specialize in robbing female cultivators and use them as furnaces. There are also monks who have organized to enter the ghost forest to encircle and suppress these scum, which is often in vain, they are extremely familiar with the terrain of the ghost forest, and they will soon hide without a trace.

And since two years ago, I heard that there was a rock monster in this ghost forest, as long as those monks came out to rob the monks, they would always be hindered by it, and they would teach those monks a hard lesson. Although it is not known how it was taught, the monks who were taught never appeared again.

Because this rock monster will also return the storage bag to the owner, it won the favor of the monks from the outside world for a while, and because it has a pair of very dazzling red eyes, it is called the red rock monster.
