The first thing Jiangshan did after he set out was to find his master. Guzhu has seen the growth of his apprentice with his own eyes, and he is also very satisfied with his current achievements.

"Now that you've grown up, ordinary mages are no longer your opponents at all, you can now go down the mountain and do what you have to do!" Gu Zhu looked at Jiang Shan and said.

"Don't you really want to know what's going on with the wasteland down the mountain and those crazy beasts?" Gu Zhu seemed to have known the purpose of Jiang Shan's coming up the mountain to cultivate this time. Lone Bamboo told Jiang Shan that the wasteland and the crazy animals under the mountain were all caused by the black gas he had discovered before!

This black gas had been formed as early as the beginning of the world. When the great god who created the world was cultivating, he was bitten by a poisonous tongue. It was because of the bite of the poisonous tongue that when the great god forced this poisonous gas out, he didn't expect that this poisonous gas actually absorbed some of his own spiritual energy and transformed into a black gas and burrowed into the ground.

After years of accumulation, this black qi has been continuously absorbing the spiritual power that can be absorbed around it underground, thus cultivating thoughts and huge energy. As a result, when Kedar was lonely and helpless, in the cave, Black Qi felt the resentment in his heart, so he took the initiative to find him and teach him magic. After that, the black gas burrowed into the ground and began to sleep. But just recently, I don't know why the black gas began to be active underground! The moment he came out, the whole meadow began to catch fire, and the fire burned for three days and three nights before it was extinguished, and even the earth wept and cracked because of it.

After the black gas burrowed out of the ground, he began to look for the creatures that could be possessed by him, and the bison were driven crazy by the erosion of the black air. As for those black magicians who have appeared recently, it is also because they have evil thoughts in their hearts that they will let the black qi take advantage of the opportunity to enter their bodies and start a plan to destroy the world. Nowadays, it is normal that there are basically no people in the charred black land outside!

"The reason why we were able to survive the hardship and not be eroded by the black qi here is entirely because of the protection of this protective shield outside, and Situ and I are powerless in the face of this black qi, because only your existence and the righteous Five Elements Magic at the beginning of creation can handle this matter!"

"Now, your strength is completely capable of taking charge of itself, now you can go down the mountain! Complete your mission and rescue the creatures controlled by the black qi!" After speaking, Guzhu walked into the thatched hut, leaving Jiangshan alone outside the reed shed

After listening to the master's words, Jiang Shan walked out of the enchantment alone. The first stop of Jiangshan came to the most barren land affected by the black gas - the former grassland. Jiang Shan looked carefully at the surroundings and seemed to have nothing of value! Jiang Shan traveled north along the grassland, and all he saw along the way were fields, villages, and forests that had been burned by wildfires. The country has traveled for a whole day, and the barrenness on this side makes the back ridge of the country feel a little cool. When Jiang Shan felt that he was about to despair, he suddenly found that there was an inn not far away with lights on, so Jiang Shan rushed there desperately.

Jiang Shan finally arrived at the inn before dark, and immediately walked in, at this time he was already hungry, and hurriedly called the shopkeeper to come over to eat. In the second day of the shop, Jiang Shan carefully looked at the inn, and always felt that something was wrong. Every guest here looked at him with a strange look, but it was only a kissing glance, and when Jiang Shan faced them, they all lowered their heads.

Although Jiangshan doesn't like this place very much, there is only one inn within a radius of 100 miles. After a while, Jiangshan's dishes came, the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper were quite polite, Jiangshan was still not at ease, he looked at it and tried it one by one with the silver needle he took from the master, and only after making sure that there was no poison did he eat it with confidence.

At night, there is silence all around, and the wasteland outside is like a dead silence, and there will be a cool breeze blowing, which is simply frustrating to the bones.

The night is getting deeper, the country is still tossing and turning and unable to sleep, and the others are quite quiet, although they are all during the day

He doesn't seem to be very friendly to outsiders. Just as Jiang Shan was about to sleep peacefully, he suddenly remembered what his master said to him when he was going down the mountain. "There are basically no normal people in this scorched wasteland!" This sentence suddenly woke Jiang Shan up! Just as he was flustered, he suddenly remembered the knock on the door......

"Who?" Jiang Shan called out softly.

"I'm the shopkeeper of this store, please open the door, guest officer!" The shopkeeper deliberately kept it very low as if he was afraid that his voice would be heard.

"What else do you have to do at such a late hour?" Jiang Shan asked suspiciously.

"It's not convenient to talk outside the door, guest officer, please open the door, I won't hurt you!" The shopkeeper became more and more nervous.

Jiang Shan thought that with his current cultivation, it would be easy to deal with a shopkeeper, and he was not afraid that he would be unfavorable to him, so he carefully opened the door!

"Guest officer, you still don't want to stay here for a long time tonight, let's leave quickly while it's dark!" the boss said to Jiang Shan in a serious tone.

"Why is that?" Jiang Shan saw that the boss didn't seem to have any malicious intent, so he told him everything about himself. "I was originally the apprentice of the immortal Lone Bamboo in the secret realm ahead, and I am going down the mountain now, because the master asked me to come to this wasteland to investigate the situation. ”

"Are you looking for the situation of the black gas?" the boss asked.

"Yes, I want to investigate the incident about the black gas, so do you know something?" Jiang Shan felt that this boss seemed to know some inside information about the black gas.

"Don't ask anything else, let's leave quickly, this matter is very complicated, I can only tell you, if you stay with me for more than an hour now, you will be in danger for another hour! If you want to live, listen to me, don't ask so much!" The boss said anxiously, and pushed Jiang Shan to let him escape through the window.

Just when Jiang Shan was still confused, there seemed to be movement outside the door, as if there were many people walking in the corridor, still whispering......
