Chapter 2 Mirror Lake Forest
Mu Chen dragged his weak body away from the training ground and did not go home directly.
Unwilling to live under others for a long time, the urgent obsession to become stronger made a bold idea rise in his heart!
He wants to go to Mirror Lake to temper his body!
As a border county, Lin'an County is next to the Jinghu Forest on the west side.
In the catastrophe of more than ten years of war, the Mirror Lake Forest is almost unrecognizable, but only the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge in the forest has become a forbidden area, allowing magic to rage and the aura is mighty, and there has never been the slightest damage.
Mu Chen heard Lao Zhao Tou say that there is a lake in the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge, the lake is calm and deep, and it can reflect human portraits, which is a mirror lake.
If you want to benefit from the lake, you must go through a rigorous physical test, and only when you are accompanied by a professional can you refine your body and benefit from it.
However, if it is not used properly, it will be like pulling out the seedlings to help grow, not only will it be useless, but it will even be life-threatening, and there are countless practitioners who have been swallowed up by the mirror lake.
Since the war, the Jinghu Forest has become increasingly barren, and it is rumored that spirit animals are rampant, and it has almost become a no-man's land.
……
The night is dark.
Mu Chen's thin figure walked into the Mirror Lake Forest with solid steps.
He is well aware of the current situation, and following the rules is equivalent to sitting still.
Only winning in danger is the way of the strong!
As soon as he entered the Mirror Lake Forest, Mu Chen's body was instantly surrounded by a burst of cool air, which made him feel a sense of mystery and awe in this deep dense forest.
Mu Chen tried his best to keep his body down and take his steps lightly.
Still, in the middle of the night, the rustle of fallen leaves is still harsh.
After a long time, a mountain came into view.
From a distance, the ups and downs stretched, as if ten thousand beasts were galloping.
If I'm not mistaken, the mountain in front of me should be the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge.
It seems that the rumors are not true, how can there be any spirit beasts? It's just a look.
There is no danger!
Mu Chen thought of this, and his hanging heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
The pace has quickened.
Ouch!
There was a stabbing pain in the left leg!
Mu Chen looked down, unlucky! His left foot was stuck in the wood, and there was already a bloody wound on his calf.
Bang!
At this moment, suddenly a dull footstep sounded, and the earth trembled.
Mu Chen shuddered, is there really a spirit beast?
At this moment, there is no need to think too much, because judging from the sound, the spirit beast is coming to smell the wind.
Speed clears up the mess.
Mu Chen took out the Hanlin dagger on his waist. This is the only thing his father left to Mu Chen.
In the middle of the night, Hanlin is deep and clear, exuding blue light, like a pool of ice springs.
Mu Chen held Hanlin in his hand, and his face was ruthless.
Dare to come!
Disembowelment for you, brute!
Mu Chen endured the pain and quickened his pace.
Despite this, the speed is still inferior to the other party.
Gradually, from behind, you can clearly perceive the hot and humid gas exhaled by the monster, and the smell is unpleasant.
I don't know when, Mu Chen felt that his vision suddenly widened, and when he looked around, there were no trees. The ground beneath his feet was a strange pale blue, and not a single weed could be seen.
Oh!
The roar of a spirit beast was heard in his ears.
It seems that it is useless to run!
Mu Chen is very calm, instead of struggling inactively, it is better to save his strength and fight to the death with the other party.
Come on, brute!
Mu Chen stopped, turned around and yelled!
Let's let Mu Ye try Hanlin's thin blade!
When he turned around, he saw a dark and dense forest standing in the night.
What about spirit animals?
While thinking, Mu Chen suddenly noticed that there were two bright balls above the jungle, hanging high in the air, if it weren't for the flickering balls, emitting red light, he thought it was stars hanging in the air.
Only then did I vaguely see a pitch-black, unusually tall guy, staring at himself with a pair of red pupils.
Why don't you attack me?
Mu Chen ran for a while, his blood was churning, and he suddenly laughed.
He shouted at the monster, "Brute! Mu Ye is here, if you are not hungry, Mu Ye and I have to leave! ”
After that, he patted his chest.
Although the monster couldn't understand human language, it could see that Mu Chen's expression was quite proud, and he suddenly opened his huge mouth and roared at Mu Chen.
Oh! Oh!
The roar lasted for a long time, setting off a gust of wind, mixed with the stench and saliva from the monster's mouth, and sprayed towards Mu Chen.
Mu Chen hurriedly turned around to avoid it, still feeling almost nauseous.
Everywhere the wind passed, it was as if the earth was shaking.
For a long time, the wind lived.
Mu Chen turned around again, and the spirit beast was gone.
Bang...... Bang......
Only the sound of footsteps drifting away remains.
Let's go?
Mu Chen shook his head, and before he could understand what the reason was, his eyes swept over and he found an extremely strange thing.
The spirit beast roared just now, and fallen leaves and dead branches were everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, I noticed again that the light blue ground was neat and clean.
This?
Mu Chen couldn't suppress his curiosity, and immediately picked up a handful of dead branches and fallen leaves from the forest and scattered them on the light blue ground.
What happened next made Mu Chen's mouth open wide, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
I saw that the dead branches and fallen leaves began to melt at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, until they turned into a pool of clear water, which was absorbed by the pale blue earth, as if it had never existed.
No wonder spirit beasts don't dare to come!
But!? How can I stand here unscathed?
Thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt that the soles of my feet were cold, and when I hurriedly raised my feet to look, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded, only to see that the soles of the straw sandals were long gone, and I was standing barefoot on the ground.
Could it be? Can this ground melt anything but the human body, including spirit beasts? Otherwise, why would the beast leave?
While he was thinking, Mu Chen noticed a bright light coming from ahead. Although the light is not strong, it is particularly dazzling in this night.
This should be Mirror Lake!
Mu Chen's eyes showed excitement and walked towards the light.
As soon as I took a step, I felt that the pain of the scratch on my left leg had disappeared.
Looking down, the wound had largely healed.
Mu Chen was overjoyed in his heart, with such a strong ability to promote life, it was indeed a holy place for refining the body!
At this moment, a young girl is naked in the mirror lake with her eyes closed.
But the lake was full of fog, so Mu Chen didn't see anyone for a while.
This girl is seventeen or eighteen years old, her appearance is stunning, and at this time, her forehead and sideburns are full of moisture, and there is a flush on the tip of her nose and cheeks, like a fairy descending from the nine heavens.
The girl was the first to notice the movement on the shore, and when she opened her eyes, she was shocked.
Worst! I can't imagine that someone will come to Mirror Lake in the middle of the night? If I am like this, if I am seen by him......
Thinking of this, the girl's face was hot, and her ears were red with shame.
This panic, only to feel the stinging pain all over the body, tempering the body, before the hour is full, suddenly stopped, not only the previous efforts are wasted, but also the danger of being swallowed by the lake.
The girl hurriedly calmed down.
And it seems that what is the purpose of the person, if there is the slightest wrong, I will fight with my life to kill this person and save my reputation.
Could it be ......
He also wants to go down to the lake to temper? Look for death! Without my family's Taixu Pill to protect his body, let's see how he resists the burning of the water spirit element!
Mu Chen came to the lake, first poked one foot into the lake, and the cold breath flowed down his toes into his body, integrating into his body with a gentle force, and even being used.
It's just that the straw sandals melt into the water and disappear.
It seems that you have to take off your clothes first and hang them on a branch before you can temper them, otherwise after dawn, you will have to go back with your bare buttocks!
Seeing that Mu Chen wanted to untie her clothes, the girl was ashamed and angry, but she didn't dare to speak, her eyes were closed, her face was still flushed, and her heart seemed to jump out of her mouth!
At this moment, on the top of the jungle, the rickety figure of an old man flashed and left the Mirror Lake Forest.
Hehe, stinky boy, I also took a mandarin duck bath with the little girl, and I won't bother with the old man.
Mu Wang Ye is saved! Dayan is saved! Ha ha!
