Chapter 98: To the 100,000 Mountains (Second Update, Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
"Lynch, you dare ......"
The corners of Mu Lao's mouth twitched, pointed at Lynch, and scolded sharply.
Undeterred, Lynch raised his head and shouted.
"What, old man wood, don't forget your current situation. ”
When Mu Lao heard this, he instantly sat down on the chair like a deflated ball.
"Lynch, stay a line, see each other in the future, you'd better not do things too much. Mu Lao was still unwilling to give up and said in a low voice.
Lynch snorted coldly and replied proudly: "The one with the big fist is the uncle." Old man Mu, you have lived for so long, you should always know this truth. ”
Seeing that Lynch had made up his mind, Mu Lao stopped talking and began to think about his plan.
Lynch, however, did not care, and turned away, ready to give orders to his brothers.
At this time, Huo Xiu had already returned to his residence and began to pack his bags.
It took at least a week to rush from Zhenyuan City to the front line of the 100,000 Great Mountains. In other words, Huo Xiu's trip will take half a month just to spend on the road.
Huo Xiu had to travel lightly and increase his speed as much as possible.
The two jade slips must be carried, and as for dry food, clothes, tents, etc., they can only be said when they go to the front line.
Although Huo Xiu was expelled from the Huo family, his financial resources were cut off. But he became the first person in the lower house, and won two consecutive games at the Cangshan Prefecture Demon Eradication Conference, and retained the participation quota for Zhenyuanwu Mansion. As a result, he received a lot of bonuses, which can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need.
Soon, Huo Xiu cleaned up. Now, all he had to do was look at the contents of the jade slip and find the most suitable route.
Huo Xiu took a deep breath, took out the broken jade slip, and held it in the palm of his hand.
In Huo Xiu's mind, a map instantly appeared.
However, the map appears to have undergone several revisions and is covered with graffiti.
It took Huo Xiu a while to figure out that this was a map of a small part of the 100,000 Great Mountains.
Fortunately, Huo Xiu had made up the information about the 100,000 Great Mountains in the past few days, so he didn't encounter too many obstacles, and he quickly determined the location of the Mu Clan's territory on the map.
After finding his destination, Huo Xiu began to look around. It was only then that he was surprised to find that the graffiti was marked with possible dangers.
Huo Xiu thought of Mu Lao's rather mysterious actions before, and he began to understand.
These graffiti should have been added by Mu Lao, who had long planned to return to the Mu Clan's territory and conducted a thorough investigation for this.
However, Mu Lao's realm is really not enough. Therefore, there is no way to remake a jade slip, you can only modify the existing jade slip, which is what it is now.
But in any case, this worn-out jade slip is much more useful than the previous one. Not only did it point out the sentry posts and patrol routes set up by some demon clans, but even some powerful beasts were also marked on it.
It's not very accurate, but it's much better than wandering around the 100,000 mountains like a headless fly.
With the help of this new map, Hosho soon determined his route.
Among the more than 100 border towns on the front line of the 100,000 Great Mountains, the closest to Zhenyuan City was Heimu Town, and according to the route determined by Huo Xiu, starting from there, it would take about three or five days to reach the territory of the Mu Clan.
In this way, as long as everything goes well, one month is definitely enough.
Huo Xiu couldn't help but perk up, and after confirming that the line was correct, he took the jade slip back.
Now, Huo Xiu silently summoned the super mission system and began to check the latest mission status.
Long-term task: Reach the Great Perfection of the Qi Control Realm within half a year (The first three stages of the task have been completed, and the last stage of the task has been opened.) Go to the territory of the Mu Clan in the 100,000 Great Mountain, take out the Wood Clan's holy relic, and give it to Mu Lao)
Side Quest: Help Tang Qian complete the awakening of bloodline power (go to the territory of the Mu Clan in the 100,000 Great Mountain, take out the essence deposited at the bottom of the 10,000-year-old cold pool, and give it to the Lord of Confucius)
Huo Xiu touched his chin, the long-term mission finally reached the final stage, and the side quest was also opened.
These two tasks are not in conflict and, if successful, can be done consecutively.
However, Huo Xiu suddenly thought that he would have to face a lot of demon clans and evil ways along the way, and he began to be a little worried.
In all fairness, with Huo Xiu's current combat strength, he is not afraid of the martial artists of the Penetrating Realm, that is, the demon clan of the Great Demon Realm. Even if you can't beat it, you can still run for your life.
However, in the 100,000 mountains, anything strange can happen. Even if you have a map to guide you, you may still encounter a wandering demon spirit or an evil path in the clutch realm. At that time, Huo Xiu probably won't even have a chance to escape.
Huo Xiu couldn't help but look at his right hand, where a golden mark flashed, this was the Vajra Great Mudra of the first imprint that he had just refined.
During his previous trip to the Empty Underworld Mountain, Huo Xiu used this move to kill an eight-eyed spider comparable to a demon spirit.
But this is not enough, after all, the beast has not opened its spiritual intelligence, and it cannot be compared to the demon clan at all.
Huo Xiu had to condense the second mark in order to grab a glimmer of life when facing the demon spirit.
However, when Huo Xiu advanced to the Great Consummation of the Qi Control Realm, he had already tried countless times, but he was never able to condense successfully, which should be caused by the lack of true qi purity.
It seemed that he would only have a chance to condense the second mark after he advanced through the realm.
"If you can find a few powerful martial artists to accompany you, it should be a lot smoother. ”
Huo Xiu couldn't help but sigh secretly.
But at this moment, he suddenly remembered the words that Mu Lao had repeatedly admonished, and couldn't help but dispel this thought. His trip was too secretive, and it was hard to guarantee that others would not secretly kill him.
Huo Xiu decided that it was best to go to the territory of the Mu Clan this time, and when he encountered danger, he would find a way to deal with it at will.
However, it didn't take long for Huo Xiu's idea to be ruthlessly shattered by reality.
At this time, nearly a week had passed, and Huo Xiu had rushed to Heimu Town at night, but was told that it was strictly forbidden for martial artists below the Penetration Realm to leave the pass and enter the 100,000 Great Mountain.
It's all high mountains, and only Kuroki is stuck in the only mountain pass. If you want to get around, you don't know how long it will take to waste.
In this way, Huo Xiu went around in Blackwood Town for two or three days, and there was no way to cross the pass. To make matters worse, he's already starting to attract the attention of the guards here, and if he continues, there's no guarantee that he won't be forcibly sent back.
On this day, Huo Xiu carefully hid his figure, and explored how to avoid the guards at the corner of the street.
Suddenly, there was a sound behind Huo Xiu.
"You are Huo Xiu from Zhenyuan Martial Mansion, and Elder Mu has entrusted us to assist you in a matter. ”
