Chapter 19: The Boy in the Valley (3:30 a.m.)
Eventually, as it was getting dark, the three of them finally reached the edge of the Barren Mountains.
However, due to the dark weather, the three of them did not continue on their way.
In a large clearing in the mountains, three young figures sat by the fire.
"Miss Han, it's really dangerous for you to go to this barren mountain range alone!
Yun Xuan handed a roasted wild boar leg to the delicate girl next to the fire, and admonished.
After all, this is a place where demon beasts haunt, and its danger level naturally can't help but be said.
This girl's name is Han Ling'er, and she is one of the many foreign students of Longteng Academy, and her attribute is wood.
"Brother Yun Xuan, you don't know, in fact, I am a doctor!" Han Ling'er looked at Yun Xuan and said with a coquettish smile:
"The reason why I came here is because not long ago, my eldest brother was injured during the year-end examination, and my brother and I are dependent on each other at home, so I don't have the money to go to the doctor. ”
"However, fortunately, I am a wood, and every time my brother is injured, I can also help!
"I see!" Yun Xuan nodded, and then he suddenly realized.
Although the Barren Mountain Range is a place where demon beasts are crisscrossed, and there are no medicinal herbs here, what you should know is that in these days, I don't know how many demon beasts with low cultivation have been brutally killed by those demon beasts in the Xuanling Realm, and in this way, there are naturally many demon pills among them.
The demon pill is very valuable, so it can naturally be exchanged for medicinal materials.
Yun Xuan and Han Ling'er chatted without a word, while Duan Chen looked at this girl from time to time, because this girl gave him a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Ling'er, you should leave this place early tomorrow morning! What medicinal materials do you need? I have twenty spirit crystals here, presumably, the medicinal materials you need can be purchased in the Treasure Pavilion. ”
"Moreover, if you often need medicinal herbs, you can go to the Treasure Pavilion and report my name as Duan Chen! they will definitely give you a discount!"
Duan Chen took out twenty spirit crystals and handed them to Han Ling'er.
"Thank you, Young Master Duan, thank you!"
Seeing this, the corners of Han Ling'er's eyes immediately moistened, and she was likely to cry because she was moved, and she also had a tendency to kneel.
Yun Xuan hurriedly helped him up and said with a smile: "My young master is like this, you don't need to worry about it, besides, no matter what the two of us say, they are also your seniors!"
After that, the girl fell asleep with satisfaction and excitement.
After all, her brother's injuries finally had a way to heal, and speaking of which, it ended her heart disease.
After a while, Duan Chen and the others also fell asleep by the fire.
The next day, in the morning.
When Duan Chen had just woken up from his dream, what caught his eye was four or five fragrant delicacies.
And next to the dish, Yun Xuan and Han Ling'er were laughing and talking about something.
Duan Chen found a creek, washed up casually, and finished breakfast with Yunxuan Han Ling'er.
After that, Han Ling'er also obediently left the barren mountain range.
After Han Ling'er left, Duan Chen and the others continued to rush towards the central area of the Barren Mountain Range.
Because the mountain road was steep and rugged, the two did not ride horses, but chose to walk on foot.
Fortunately, before going out, Duan Chen brought a map of the barren mountain range, otherwise, he really didn't know how many detours he would have to take.
The reason why this mountain range is called the Barren Mountains is because there is no other life here except the peaks.
Except, of course, monsters.
However, these days, because of the four Xuanling Realm demon beasts that have swept through, this place has become more and more barren, as if it is dead, and there is no sense of life.
However, this desolate situation did not last long, because, at noon on this day, Duan Chen and the others saw a group of people.
The group of people were all dressed identically, each wearing a red robe, and on the left chest of the robe, there was an emblem, and above the emblem, there was a blood-colored crescent.
Obviously, these people were the disciples of the Blood Moon Sect, one of the four major sect forces.
Looking around, there were almost fifteen Blood Moon Sect disciples.
"Their cultivation... They all stepped into the early stage of the Xuan Ling Realm, so strong... Come to think of it, these people are the core disciples of the Blood Moon Sect!"
After Duan Chen sensed it, he couldn't help but lose his voice in surprise.
You must know that according to rumors from the outside world, the best disciples among these great sects are not core disciples, but the so-called personal disciples.
Just a core disciple, he has reached the early stage of the Xuanling Realm, and the strength of that personal disciple... From this, we can see how powerful the foundation of these big forces is.
"Young Master, why are these people gathered here! Isn't their mission to go down the mountain to deal with those few Xuanling Realm demon beasts? And right now, I don't feel the breath of the demon beasts!"
Yun Xuan looked at the Blood Moon Sect disciple in front of him, who was constantly walking back and forth on the clearing, and he couldn't help frowning and asking.
"If it weren't for my expectations, they were arranging a large array, and this might be able to suppress those four-headed demon beasts of the Xuanling Realm!"
"Otherwise, with their strength, they still can't fight those four-headed demon beasts!"
Duan Chen looked at it for a while before he suddenly realized.
"Moreover, I found that around the clearing where this group of Blood Moon Sect disciples were, there were no less than a hundred auras hidden. ”
"And these people should be some loose cultivators, as well as those beast hunting teams that hunt monsters for a living all year round!"
"Come to think of it, if those four Xuanling Realm demon beasts fall into this formation, at that time, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people who will attack it!"
Indeed, as Duan Chen said, if these people clashed head-on with those four demon beasts together, then they would have only one fate, and that was to annihilate the entire army.
After all, these four late-stage demon beasts of the Xuanling Realm were all extraordinary, not to mention, there was also a peak demon beast of the Xuanling Realm that had already stepped into the level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm with half a foot in it.
Duan Chen and the others hid their bodies behind a mountain peak, and watched in place for a long time before leaving.
Because what they don't know is that according to this situation, they don't know how long they will have to set up the formation, so Duan Chen and the others plan to leave for a while, anyway, if they start to do it after a while, thinking about it, there will inevitably be a big uproar in the entire barren mountain range.
After the two of them left there, they changed their route and continued towards the heart of the Barren Mountains.
I don't know how long they walked, but Duan Chen and the others came to a valley.
Just when Duan Chen and the others wanted to bypass this place, Duan Chen vaguely sensed a faint aura, and that aura came from this valley.
"No, there seem to be people in this valley!" Duan Chen suddenly stopped walking.
Hearing this, Yun Xuan was stunned, and then grinned: "Young Master, you are just too cautious, so you have hallucinations, how can there be people in this valley!"
"Besides, the inside of this valley is frozen, even if I stand outside this valley, I can feel the icy chill, not to mention, how can anyone be stupid enough to strangle in it?"
Duan Chen stroked his forehead with a headache, then walked towards the entrance of the valley, and said angrily: "In the barren mountain range, how can there be ice condensation for no reason?"
Duan Chen and the others walked into the valley one after the other.
As soon as they entered it, Duan Chen and the others were made to shiver by the extremely cold air.
"Young master, I can't stand it! I'll go out first!"
After a while, Yun Xuan couldn't resist the cold aura in the valley and hurriedly ran out.
Duan Chen walked towards the depths of the valley step by step, although his pace was slow, he was not embarrassed.
Although this kind of cold is extremely heavy, it is not enough to threaten Duan Chen, after all, Duan Chen has the residual energy of the Blue Fire Spirit Crystal in his body, and it is extremely simple to resist this cold qi.
After a while, Duan Chen came to the central area of the valley.
The closer you get to the center of the valley, the heavier the chill becomes.
"Shhhhh
At this time, Duan Chen suddenly gasped, and looked not far ahead with a stunned gaze.
There, a young figure sat on the ground, and the body was covered with a thick layer of ice.
What made people feel shocked was that the figure was a young man, and at this moment, only one of his heads was exposed, and the rest of the place was already covered by ice.
