Chapter Seventy-Two: The Trail of the Octopus

After Mu Hao and the others finished discussing Cheng Xinghao, they glanced at Peng Yayun, Gu Xuefeng, Liao Jun and others, and their eyes basically did not stay on Chen Xuan, Mu Hao glanced at Chen Xuan more, just because his eyebrows were a little familiar when he was wearing a mask.

"It's not just Cheng Xinghao's side, Gu Xuefeng is not easy to mess with. There are also Peng Yayun and Liao Jun, which are not fuel-efficient lamps. The middle-aged man with a tiger's back said.

"It's disgusting to have three copies of a treasure hunt map and sell it. The middle-aged man with a big back frowned and said.

"If I only had one, I wouldn't have gotten it. Mu Hao said, asking, "Who is that one wearing the mask?"

"I don't know, where can I recognize it with a mask, but looking at my eyebrows and figure, I think I'm still young. The middle-aged man with a tiger's back said.

"There haven't been any young talents in Yuntianmen recently, and judging by their attitudes, the masked ones are probably just stepping into the monk world and coming over to have a lively time to see the world. The main ones we have to guard against are Gu Xuefeng and Peng Yayun. The middle-aged man with a big back said.

On Cheng Xinghao's side, the lazy lady introduced as she walked: "On their side, only Mu Hao and Gu Xuefeng should have stepped into the third grade, and the others are all second grades." However, the one wearing the mask doesn't know his identity, so he doesn't know his strength. ”

Cheng Xinghao glanced at it and didn't care. A young man with dyed yellow hair next to him smiled: "Looking at their attitudes towards each other, you can see that the mask boy should be just a little follower, don't care." The reason why I wore a mask is probably because I look too ugly. ”

Three groups of people, weighing each other's strength, there is no doubt that Cheng Xinghao has the upper hand, and Chen Xuan is a neglected character, and he also wants to be ignored, after all, he has no interest in the elixir scramble, and his goal is octopus essence.

After another round of climbing over the mountains and mountains, they arrived at an inaccessible valley, which was already close to the location of the elixir, but as soon as they reached the mouth of the valley, Mu Hao and the others stopped, and then excitedly lowered their bodies and rummaged, as if they had picked up money.

"Wild ginseng. Gu Xuefeng's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward quickly, and Peng Yayun, Liao Jun, and Chen Xuan also followed quickly, looking for mountain ginseng.

Because Mu Hao and the others were one step earlier, they dug up two mountain ginseng trees, which seemed to be estimated to be thirty or forty years old, and Gu Xuefeng also dug up one. Cheng Xinghao and the others were a step late, and they didn't dig a single one, but they were just a little surprised, and they didn't envy it, let alone have the intention of grabbing it, it's just decades of mountain ginseng, and it's not difficult to buy.

"It's a treasure here. "Everyone is overjoyed, there are wild ginseng growing outside this valley, and the mountains and rivers inside are beautiful and spiritual, and it is likely that there is an elixir, and it seems that they are not looking for the wrong place.

The three groups were anxious, and they sped into the valley, scrambling to be the first. What no one noticed was that in the depths of the valley, a huge octopus on the mountain wall was watching them from a distance, and when they saw them entering the valley, the octopus quickly climbed down the mountain wall.

They ran into the valley, and sure enough, the air was fresher and the aura was more impressive, and they looked at the map to find the elixir. Of course, they were all cautious, after all, the news said that there was a guardian beast next to the elixir.

"Be careful, something isn't quite right here. General Sparrowtail said suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xuan was stunned.

"The terrain and environment here look like a formation, but I don't know much about the formation, so I can't say it accurately. In addition, there are traces of octopus essence everywhere, and it must have been here for a long time. General Sparrowtail said.

"Could it be that the elixir is his? In that case, how could the news spread so simply. Chen Xuan frowned, feeling more and more wrong.

He glanced at Peng Yayun and the others, and reminded: "Sister Yayun, I don't feel like something is right here, or let's leave." ”

"What are you talking about, the elixir is close at hand, how can you leave like this, help find it." Peng Yayun said anxiously, Gu Xuefeng and Liao Jun both frowned, Chen Xuan could keep up with him before, and he looked at him differently, but he didn't expect that when he arrived at the destination, he suddenly coaxed again.

"Haha, you Yuntianmen really don't have anyone, and this kind of straw bag is also taken out. The yellow-haired young man next to Cheng Xinghao sneered.

At this moment, there was a boom in the whole valley, and countless black fogs came out of nowhere, enveloping the entire valley, as if day had turned into night, the surrounding mountains and rocks seemed to be moving, the scenery changed, and the whole valley became eerie and terrifying.

"What's going on?" Liao Jun's face changed drastically.

"It's a killing formation, run away. Gu Xuefeng shouted, taking the lead and returning the same way, followed by Peng Yayun, Liao Jun, and Chen Xuan. However, Gu Xuefeng seemed to have suddenly bumped into something, slammed, stopped, and his head was bleeding. If you look closely, the air in front of you has turned into a mountain wall, and there are traces of Gu Xuefeng's collision on it.

"Ahh

Mu Hao and the others were not much better, they couldn't find a way out at all, and they looked at a good road in front of them, but they suddenly turned into a mountain wall.

"It's the first time I've seen such a clever formation. Gu Xuefeng exclaimed.

"It's over, it seems like a trap. Peng Yayun's face turned slightly pale.

Before they could digest all this, suddenly on Cheng Xinghao's side, a young man let out a miserable scream, only to see a huge tentacle stretching out of the black mist, rolling him in, dragging him into the dense fog and disappearing. Even the scream came to an abrupt end.

Immediately afterwards, another tentacle reached out and rolled towards Mu Hao and the others, the big man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, suddenly stepped forward, boom, shot out like a cannonball, and a punch hit the tentacle, but the next moment, the whole tentacle was slapped upside down and flew out, smashing heavily on the stone wall, leaving a human figure on the stone wall, opening his mouth and spurting out a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, Chen Xuan and the others only felt a gust of wind next to them, and a huge tentacle was slapping over, and Chen Xuan bore the brunt.

Chen Xuan was about to dodge, but he only heard Peng Yayun shouting "Be careful", and the whole person pounced, and while throwing Chen Xuan away, he actually wanted to use his back to help Chen Xuan block the heavy slap of the tentacle. At that moment, Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment, although his own medicine saved her mother, it was not something that ordinary people could do to save herself at such a juncture.

Chen Xuan hugged Peng Yayun and kicked the ground violently, the speed of retreat suddenly doubled, and with a bang, the tentacles swept over the position they were standing on before, and slapped on the stone wall, which actually burst the stone wall and collapsed. Liao Jun couldn't dodge, and was hit on the back by a big rock, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and was injured a lot.

Everyone looked in horror at the looming monster in the black fog, it was as tall as a building, crimson all over, with eight tentacles, and it was alive with an octopus monster that could only be seen in movies.

"God, is this the so-called elixir guardian beast? ”

"Where is this guardian beast, it's clearly a monster. ”

The monks present were all terrified, generally the elixir will attract some beasts, such as snakes, apes, cheetahs, etc., although the beasts do not know what elixir, but the elixir is comfortable, they can feel it, and they will generally settle next to the elixir.

Beasts will be stronger than ordinary beasts under the nourishment of elixir, but they are also within the scope of understanding, ordinary people can't deal with it, but it's generally difficult for monks.

However, the huge thing in front of them, where is the guardian beast, it is clearly a monster, this is beyond their cognition.
