Chapter 117: The depths of the terrifying back mountain
Away from the Luwu Temple, the lights are colorful, and it is very lively. The black and white son brought not only practical help to the Lilu Martial Academy, but also superficial vanity. The city lord of Tianxin City, Xueyang, personally led a large group of soldiers to guard the entrances and exits of the martial arts courtyard to ensure the safety of this banquet. They naturally knew in their hearts that this was all useless work, and with the strength of black and white, there was no opponent in the area under the jurisdiction of Tianxin City. In order to make a good impression, it doesn't hurt to work hard, just flatter.
Tomorrow is the Xie Zun Banquet, and the disciples of the Lilu Martial Academy are very busy, they want to show their best side to Hei Baizi, and it is best to let these two Venerables stay. Gongsun Shu took a few elders to the pharmacy, hoping to find some elixirs to give to Hei Baizi, but there were only some low-level goods left that they didn't even bother to take care of. Don't think about it, it must be Zhou Xuanjing's years as the head of the courtyard that have squeezed out those things that can be used.
Gongsun Shu was very unhappy, the huge Lilu Martial Academy couldn't even take out a decent thing as a thank you, not to mention the exercise books collected by the Martial Academy, let alone the Dharma books. There was still one day today, he thought it should be enough, he gathered dozens of disciples who had cultivated relatively well, and went to the back mountain to look for spiritual flowers and plants.
There are often demon beasts in the back mountain of the martial arts courtyard, so the Lilu martial arts academy was built here, in order to block these demon beasts and prevent them from entering the city and hurting people. Most of the martial arts academies are located according to this location to protect the safety of the people in the city, but for the martial academies, there is also a certain benefit, that is, you can feel the rich aura of heaven and earth up close.
There are demon beasts infested, which means that the aura of heaven and earth is very concentrated, and conversely, it also indicates that there must be many kinds of strange flowers and plants growing in those places. However, the back mountain is unusually large, and it is worth more than dozens of Tianxin Cities, so the disciples of the Martial Academy generally do not go deep and cultivate on the edge of the back mountain.
Gongsun Shu sent dozens of elite disciples who had cultivated to the top this time, in order to let them go deeper into the back mountain to search, so the probability of encountering danger would be greatly increased. Therefore, Leng Feng and Chen Wuming, who were following on the side, were opposed, and did not approve of the disciples going too deep, if they were really in danger, the Lilu Martial Academy would lose these outstanding disciples in vain, and it would be close to the Seven Great Martial Academy Trial Tournament, who could they send to fight at that time?
Unexpectedly, Gongsun Shu replied, if you can let the Black and White Venerable stay in the Lilu Martial Academy, what if you sacrifice a few disciples, when there are two Venerables teaching martial arts hand in hand, are you worried that there will be no stronger disciples?
Looking at Gongsun Shu's back as he disappeared in a hurry, Chen Wuming sighed, Leng Feng was indifferent, and there was loss in his eyes.
"What's the matter? The boy who was very optimistic at the beginning suddenly became an adult today, a little strange. Chen Wuming took the opportunity to say what he thought, his heart didn't need to be spoken, he just wanted to hear what Leng Feng had to say.
Leng Feng was sluggish for a moment, he thought that Gongsun Shu was a martial arts wizard, of course, he is now, and he also admires Leng Ling, if he can become a partner, it is indeed a beautiful thing. However, since Gongsun Shu returned from the battle with Zhou Xuanjing, his personality has changed a little, and he has become more addicted to martial arts than the initial enjoyment. Then, after becoming the master of the Lilu Martial Academy, he tried his best to make the Martial Academy the leader of the Seven Great Martial Courtyards of the Xuantu Kingdom, which was originally a good thing, but in a hurry, it seemed that he had done a lot of undesirable things.
It's like today, in order to curry favor with Hei Baizi, he even ignored the danger of his disciples and went to the depths of the back mountain to search for spiritual flowers and plants, rare treasures. Leng Feng regretted it very much, at that time, when the new master of the courtyard was elected, he should have asked the Tianzong Martial Mansion to send someone down, instead of declining the help of the Tianzong Martial Mansion and choosing by himself. Because he knew that the old courtyard master also politely declined the Tianzong Martial Mansion and let Zhou Xuanjing succeed him as the courtyard master, so there was a scandal in the future.
"Forget it, this is our own choice, if we have time to complain, it is better to think about how to help those elite disciples who are going to go to the back mountain to reduce unnecessary casualties. Leng Feng's tone was a little soft, but it was a way to save it.
Chen Wuming nodded, instead of discussing those who have and don't, it is better to think of some practical actions. This is the reason why he likes to be with Leng Feng the most since he came to the Luwu Academy for decades, and the other party can always keep a cool head and make conclusions.
"But, if I'm not mistaken, no one has ever entered the depths of this back mountain, and no one is sure what is inside. Moreover, the cultivation of the two of us is estimated to end here in this life, and there are many elite disciples who are at the top of the cultivation level who are stronger than us. I think...... If we are really in danger, we may not be able to do it. Chen Wuming smiled awkwardly, although there was a bit of self-deprecation in his tone, but it was indeed the truth.
Leng Feng suddenly smiled stiffly, he thought of Leng Ling, and replied: "Ling Er, this stupid girl, actually broke through the Earth Mind Realm and entered the Heavenly Void Realm, it seems that her martial arts path is much longer than ours. ”
The two walked out of the pharmacy, only to find Qin Yuying who came in a hurry, the latter's face was full of doubts, and he said, "The courtyard master actually summoned dozens of disciples who had cultivated to the top of the rankings to go to the depths of the back mountain, do you know?"
Leng Feng looked calm and replied: "I know, and I have no right to ask." ”
"Don't have the right to ask?" Qin Yuying's voice suddenly became louder, and her face changed, "Leng Feng, could it be that Leng Ling is in the list of dozens of disciples convened by the academy master, don't you just ask?"
A calm night was broken up by a storm, the corners of Leng Feng's mouth twitched, his hands trembled, and a cold light appeared in his eyes, he glanced at Qin Yuying and disappeared in place.
Outside the mountain gate of Luwuyuan, the soldiers walked back and forth, their mental power was highly concentrated, and it seemed that Xueyang had made a bloody investment.
After a night's rest and recuperation, coupled with Phoenix's previous treatment for him, Yun Hao's body has almost recovered. It's just that when I came to the gate of Lilu Wuyuan Mountain, I saw so many soldiers guarding it, and I thought something was wrong. However, the Guardian Courtyard Circle is still there, which means that nothing has happened in the Martial Academy. These rows were just to cater to the black and white sons, but they didn't know that the black and white children were gone, and they should be on the way back to Wuji Immortal Island.
With his own current strength, he should be able to easily break through this courtyard magic array, when he first came, he felt very powerful, but now it seems that the formation is full of loopholes. At most, it can only be used as an early warning device, and if there is really a strong enemy invading, it will be reported. Therefore, now that he forcibly entered the martial arts academy, he would definitely be discovered, but if he was fast, he should be able to avoid fighting these soldiers and getting into unnecessary trouble.
Just as Yun Hao was about to go in, the formation was suddenly opened, and the gate of the Luwu Courtyard was opened, and he was discovered.
Thirty disciples came out one after another, and they were ready to go. Everyone's emotions were high, and their faces were full of confidence.
Gongsun Shu, the head of the Luwu Academy, walked out and said: "The two Venerables of Black and White must be clear to everyone that they have the will to be a disciple of the room, so in this test, everyone must do their best to show themselves to the fullest, there is only one point, cannibalism is strictly prohibited, otherwise it will be dealt with according to the rules of the academy." I will be watching you in the dark, and I will invite the Black and White Venerable to come and observe you. ”
Hearing the words of the Black and White Venerable, everyone's enthusiasm instantly rose a lot, if they could be the disciples of the two of them, it would really be a blessing that they could not cultivate in several lifetimes. Everyone knows that the path of cultivation must be down-to-earth, and if there is a famous teacher as a guide, there will be fewer detours and fewer astrays.
"Therefore, the rule of this selection is that whichever disciple collects something of high value will be considered the winner. Moreover, you should know that this is a rare opportunity, and if you can go deep into the back mountains, I believe that the chances of winning are even better. Gongsun Shu said again.
The test is normal, but, in the depths of the back mountain, no, Yun Hao feels wrong, the back mountain is so big, no one has ever dared to go deep into it, even the lair of Zhou Xuanjing, who has turned into a yin and yang person, is a little deeper, and this is still relying on the ghost soul in his hand as a talisman to survive for so long.
However, the thirty disciples didn't seem to have a sense of fear, one was more positive than the other, and they were even unmoved by the words "deep in the back mountain", and they looked like they were completely playing with their lives.
Drugged or controlled? Yun Hao couldn't figure it out, when he was in the martial arts academy, his mentor had warned him not to go to the depths of the back mountain to cultivate, so as not to be in danger. It is impossible for these thirty people not to know, and just when he was puzzled, Gongsun Shu called out a person's name and shocked his heart.
"Leng Ling, this time you lead the team and take care of the other junior brothers and sisters. Gongsun Shu said calmly in the face of a female disciple, but his eyes were full of ardent anticipation, and he wanted to put his right hand on Leng Ling's shoulder.
The female disciple was indeed Leng Ling, and she took advantage of the gap between nodding to lean over and dodge Gongsun Shu's hand.
Leng Ling? How could she agree to go to the depths of the back mountain, didn't she know how dangerous it was? Yun Hao couldn't figure it out, what the hell was this Gongsun Shu doing, and the experience would not put the lives of these thirty disciples into it. Could it be that he had other plans? Yun Hao had met Gongsun Shu four times in total, and each time he felt different.
At the same time that Yun Hao was struggling with the problem, the thirty disciples had already set off, all of them flying towards the depths of the back mountain. Only Gongsun Shu was left to stay there, but there were two more, Leng Feng and Chen Wuming. When the two of them saw Gongsun Shu alone, they understood, and they didn't even say hello, and flew directly to the depths of the back mountain.
The gate of the Luwu Temple was closed, and the courtyard circle was also closed again.
Since Leng Ling went to the depths of the back mountain, of course Yun Hao wanted to protect Leng Ling, and he also flew over.
The mountain behind the Luwu Academy is very large, the scenery is very beautiful, and the aura is abundant, which is very suitable for martial artists to cultivate, but few people dare to break in. There is a legend a long time ago that there is a cold pool in the mountain behind this, which is cold all year round and the temperature is very low. But strangely, the water in the pond did not freeze, but the temperature within a radius of several miles of the pond was so low that there were few living creatures. But no one has seen it, only that it is a legend, and it is not known whether someone has really experienced it, or if it is a fabrication by the storyteller.
Since then, the depths of the mountain behind the Luwu Academy have become a legend, and after the news came out, many warriors came to hear the news, in order to have a good chance, maybe they could get a rare inheritance treasure, but in the end there was no news. Later, there was another legend in the Xuantu Kingdom, all the warriors who went to the depths of the mountain behind the Luwu Academy to hunt for treasures died unexpectedly, and there were no bones. As a result, this matter gradually dissipated in the panic of the people, and what is even more exaggerated is that there is a hidden strong man among those who will never return.
The back mountain from the Luwu Academy is no better than the Demon Rock Mountain, the grass and trees are prosperous, as long as Yun Hao keeps a certain distance and deliberately hides his breath, he will not be noticed, because not far in front of him is the cold wind Chen Wuming and the two. Now he doesn't want to show up too early, and in case of emergencies, he can also protect them secretly.
Leng Ling's cultivation was already higher than that of the other disciples, and he had not yet flown with all his strength, but the rest of the people did not think so, and they flew very fast. There are quite a few people who have already exerted a lot of physical energy and start sweating. Seeing this, Leng Ling wanted to make them stop, but no one listened. Because Gongsun Shu has repeatedly told him that there is only one day, and tomorrow at the Xie Zun banquet, the Black and White Venerables will accept disciples. This sentence is like a reassuring pill, so that the rest of the people are steadfast, even if the physical strength is exhausted, turn around and look at the others, and everything is restored again.
"Senior Sister Leng Ling, why didn't Brother Yun Hao return to the Martial Academy?" a delicate-looking disciple caught up with Leng Ling and asked with a smile.
Leng Ling turned his head, and as soon as he looked at the person, he immediately reprimanded: "Shi Qingyu, why are you here?"
He is Shi Qingyu, in the days when Yun Hao left the Martial Academy, he cultivated hard, and his current cultivation is not much different from Yun Hao, but he has too little combat experience, so he came to this special experience.
"Senior sister, I'm not the only one, you see. After speaking, Shi Qingyu pointed behind him.
Liu Feng? Leng Ling suddenly became angry: "Why are you here too?"
Liu Feng smiled, the goddess of the past became more and more temperamental, especially the cultivation skyrocketed to the Heavenly Void Mirror, which made him admire him even more. He replied: "Originally, there was no place for us, but Senior Brother Qingyu said, follow you to find Senior Brother Yun Hao, so we came, besides, I will follow you wherever you go." At the end, the tone revealed the youthfulness of a teenager.
Leng Ling was really speechless, these two people couldn't be stupid. When she returned to Lilu Martial Academy, she said, Yun Hao will go back to Los Angeles first, and then make plans, as for being so anxious? In fact, there is no one in this trial, but the danger in the depths of the back mountain, the cold wind has already warned her, no matter what happens, don't go. But in order to protect these younger brothers and sisters, she came.
Alas, now it's okay, and the three of them inexplicably automatically asked Ying to go to the depths of the back mountain. This is of course a good thing for Gongsun Shu, the higher the cultivation of the person who goes, the higher the possibility of searching for treasures, why not do it.
Yun Hao is really going crazy, this cold wind Chen Wuming and the others are too slow, he really wants to overtake and catch up with Leng Ling, now he can only pray that Leng Ling's team of people will slow down, don't all rush in.
