Chapter 209: Leaving Alone
The middle-aged man sighed lightly, his expression was sad, and said: "After the 'Adventure Heroes Club' is over, I will accompany you on a trip! Go and bring your family over, I will take care of them instead of the undefeated, I must not watch the undefeated descendants live such a hard life, I, as a brother, am sorry for him, I owe him too much."

"Thank you senior!" Dongfang Ming was overjoyed, with the care of a middle-aged man, it was difficult for his family to think of a happy and peaceful life, after all, this was a Xuanzun five thousand years ago, and it was also a temple master who was admired by at least the strong people of Xuanzong, such a strong man, many people would not be able to see the style in their lifetime.
The sadness in the middle-aged man's expression slowly faded, and he said with a smile: "Young man, I am a close friend of life and death with your ancestors, you don't need to call me senior, my original name is Yang Lianting, if you don't dislike it, just call me Uncle Yang!"
"Yes, Uncle Yang!" Dongfang Ming exclaimed respectfully.
The smile on the middle-aged man's face became a little thicker, and said: "Young man, your current strength is still too weak, you can stay here for the time being! I will do my best to help you improve your strength without destroying your foundation, whether the former glory of the Dongfang clan can be reproduced in the world depends on you, don't let your ancestors down." ā
Next, Dongfang Ming stayed in the temple, Xiao Han refused Dongfang Ming's retention and left the temple, and then the old man who had picked up Xiao Han and the two sent Xiao Han down again, and finally returned to the valley shrouded in poisonous smoke through the portal of teleportation.
Xiao Han discerned the direction, and then walked towards the outside of the valley, but when he walked to the edge of the area, he stopped again, hesitated slightly, returned to the valley, and began to set up a tent in a quiet place, he temporarily changed his attention, and planned to cultivate here for a period of time.
The air in the valley is very good, the environment is very beautiful, it is very quiet here, except for some colorful butterflies dancing in the flowers, there is no other life, and outside the valley, a layer of faint pink poisonous smoke covers the sky and the sun is shrouded around, as far as the eye can see, the sky is a layer of dark red, the poisonous smoke does not disperse, slowly drifting, but it does not enter the valley, as if something around the valley is blocking it.
The toxicity of the poisonous smoke is very strong, almost no one among the contestants has the ability to cross here, and there is also a portal to the temple here, and the master of the temple has also done something here, so Xiao Han is very relieved, and he is not afraid that he will be disturbed on the way to cultivation, and directly enters the deep cultivation state.
And in Xiao Han's dantian, the twin star immortal artifact projection wrapped a thumb-sized Yunxia Divine Stone slowly rotated, and a stream of strange spiritual power emanated from the Yunxia Divine Stone, and finally integrated into the Twin Star Immortal Artifact projection, and after absorbing the spiritual power flowing out of the Yunxia Divine Stone, the Gemini Star Immortal Projection was also slowly growing, but this speed was very slow, if you were not careful, it would be difficult to detect it at all.
There is no time in the mountains, in the blink of an eye, Xiao Han has been in the valley for ten months, during these ten months, Xiao Han sometimes cultivates in the tent, sometimes practices swords in the flowers, although the strength has not been greatly improved, but the use of his own spiritual power is more handy, and the combat effectiveness is definitely a few points stronger than before.
Now there are only two months left before the end of the knockout round, Xiao Han originally wanted to practice here while waiting for Dongfang Ming to come out, but now the remaining time does not allow him to continue waiting, and for the rest of the time, he must go out to collect the participation tokens.
Xiao Han came to the portal of teleportation, stared at the Xuanao array carved on the ground for a while, and finally sighed lightly, put away the tent and left the valley without any trace.
As for the formation diagram of the teleportation gate, Xiao Han has not watched it since the first day of reading, this array diagram is extremely mysterious, although it is just a complex pattern, but it contains incomprehensible mysteries of heaven and earth, as if every line that constitutes the formation diagram is pulling the rules of heaven and earth, mysterious and mysterious, which is not something that Xiao Han can understand at all.
After leaving the elegant small valley, Xiao Han was surrounded by the thick poisonous smoke again, and then walked outside with the feeling he felt when he came.
The bare mountains are shrouded in poisonous smoke all year round, so that there are few plants here, and even if there are, they are highly poisonous poisonous flowers and poisonous plants, which are rare.
After Xiao Han walked in the mountains for an hour, suddenly, a "rustling" sound came into Xiao Han's ears, and the sound was dense and connected.
Hearing the sound, Xiao Han suddenly stopped moving forward, and looked in the direction where the sound came from with a serious face, due to the obstruction of poisonous smoke, Xiao Han could only see a distance of 100 meters at most.
Soon, a large black shadow appeared in Xiao Han's sight on the ground, and the black shadow came like a tide, and everywhere he passed, he was covered by a black torrent.
When Xiao Han saw the body of those black shadows clearly, his face suddenly changed, and he saw that those black shadows turned out to be black ants the size of a thumb, and in mid-air, there were many black ants the size of a fist with a pair of wings flying quickly.
"It turned out to be a corpse gnawing worm. Xiao Han was startled, and then without a moment's hesitation, he immediately ran outside as fast as he could.
Corpse gnawing insects are very famous in the cultivation world, they are a strange race, not spirit beasts, if they are a single person, there is indeed no threat, but this kind of corpse gnawing insects live in groups, and there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of them when they are dispatched, even if the top powerhouses of the Xuanzong rank are wrapped in corpse gnawing insects, there is absolutely no room for survival, let alone Xiao Han, who only has the strength of Xuanhuang.
The corpse worm itself has a very strong toxin, and can be immune to most of the world's poisons, only a few kinds of poison can pose a threat to the corpse worm, its shell is very thick, it can be compared with steel, it is difficult for people who are not strong to kill it at all, and the corpse worm can devour the spiritual power of any spiritual root, and the protective qi formed by the spiritual power is like an ornament for them.
Xiao Han has read a lot of records about corpse gnawing insects from some Taoist ancient books, but without exception, the best way to deal with corpse gnawing insects recorded in all Taoist ancient books is to escape, and escape from them far away. Because the toxin of the corpse worm has a very strong anesthetic effect, once bitten, the toxin will quickly spread to the whole body, making people feel weak, and they don't even have the strength to escape.
Once bitten by a corpse worm, the chances of survival are almost zero, unless a miracle happens.
Xiao Han fled towards the outside of the mountain range like the wind, and he was not sure how to deal with tens of millions of corpse-gnawing insects.
In the rear, the corpse gnawing insects also discovered Xiao Han's whereabouts, and chased after him, the "rustling" sound made by the rapid crawling on the ground was endless, which sounded creepy, and in the sky, some fist-sized winged corpse gnawing insects had surpassed their peers crawling on the ground, and chased Xiao Han one step ahead, and the flight speed was even a few points faster than Xiao Han.
Xiao Han's speed was increased to the extreme, running and jumping quickly in the uneven mountains, although he had the strength of the Xuan Emperor, the speed was several times that of before, but in the steep mountain road, he could not fully exert his speed, how to outrun the corpse worms flying in the air.
After a while, Xiao Han was caught up by some corpse-gnawing insects, and in desperation, Xiao Han had to sacrifice the Cold Moon Sword, and as a sword shadow flashed, countless swords were stabbed out behind him in an instant.
Only a series of "ding-ding-ding" sounds could be heard, and a large number of corpse-gnawing insects fell from the air, their entire bodies were cut in two, and black liquid flowed out.
After such a delay, Xiao Han was soon wrapped in more corpse-gnawing insects, and a large group of corpse-gnawing insects instigated their wings rushed towards Xiao Han one after another, fearless of death.
Xiao Han's Cold Moon Sword had already swung impenetrable, laying a heavy sword net in front of him, blocking and gnawing corpse insects from approaching, and at the same time breaking through.
Despite this, there were still some corpse gnawing insects that broke through the sword net laid by Xiao Han, flew on his body, opened their big mouths and bit down fiercely, under the sharp teeth of the corpse gnawing insects, Xiao Han's powerful body that was enough to resist the Xuan Master's use of Xuan Bing's attack was as fragile as tofu and vulnerable.
Xiao Han didn't pay attention to the corpse worms that bit him, and broke through to the outside with all his might, if he continued to be trapped here, when more corpse gnawing insects caught up in the back, then he would be at the end of his rope.
After many efforts, Xiao Han finally escaped from the encirclement of the corpse gnawing insects, and then his speed did not decrease in the slightest, and he fled towards the outside of the valley with all his strength, and at the same time reached out to grab a few corpse gnawing insects that were biting his body, and with a force of his arm, he directly pinched the fist-sized corpse gnawing insects, and the black liquid stained Xiao Han's entire palm.
As soon as the toxin belonging to the corpse gnawing insect entered Xiao Han's body, it was washed clean by the blood in Xiao Han's body, leaving no trace behind.
Although the toxin of the corpse worm is terrifying, it can't hurt the non-toxic body made of the silver real gold snake.
In the rear, the corpse-gnawing insects flying in the air instigated their wings and were still in hot pursuit.
Suddenly, the mountain rock beside Xiao Han split, revealing a large hole one person high, a giant python with a thickness of one meter and a pale red body flew out of the giant hole like lightning, opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Xiao Han.
Xiao Han's spirit has been highly concentrated, and he saw his body swaying slightly, narrowly avoiding the attack of the giant python, and then directly punched the giant python's head.
The violent concussion from the head made the python's mind feel drowsy, and before the python woke up, it was wrapped in a group of corpse-gnawing insects chasing after him, and then the sharp teeth bit all over the python's body.
......A hiss came from the mouth of the giant python, and then the whole body of the giant python began to churn violently, smashing the nearby rocks one after another, and a large number of stone chips flew all over the sky.
The huge body of the giant python contained a lot of corpse gnawing insects, and the dense corpse gnawing insects had covered the entire body of the giant python, and soon, the giant python with a meter thick body was gnawed by the corpse insects and the bones were undamaged, and even the blood was not left, and it disappeared cleanly.
Xiao Han, on the other hand, had disappeared without a trace, and successfully escaped from the sensing range of the corpse gnawing insects.
Outside the mountain range shrouded in pink poisonous smoke, a crowd of about twenty people was gathering here, pointing at the bare mountain range in front of them, and talking non-stop.
"I said there must be a treasure in here, otherwise how could there be such an unusual place. Someone said.
"How can there be a treasure in a place where this bird doesn't die! And these pink smoke are highly poisonous, which of us has the ability to enter it?"
"Poisonous smoke doesn't appear here for no reason, it's destined to be extraordinary, and there must be some secret. ā
"Will there be a senior master living in seclusion here! I have heard that in order to prevent being disturbed by others during cultivation, some powerful spirit beasts will always be stocked around or some things will be arranged to block people from entering, I think most of them are ...... here."
"It sounds a little reasonable, but to be able to arrange this place like this, it must be a master who is good at using poison, I think we should get out of here quickly! If we really disturb that senior, then we will all be doomed......
"Phew, who can't speak so much! Who said that we disturbed the predecessors, we must be finished, there is a saying I don't know if you have heard of, meeting is fate, in case the senior master is in a good mood, casually instruct us a few times or directly accept us as apprentices, then we will become a carp jumping over the dragon gate! In front of us, it is a great opportunity!"
Twenty or so people stood outside the bare mountain range shrouded in poisonous gas, and they were constantly talking, all speculating about what would be in the mountain range, and there were different accounts.
"Hey, you see, somebody is running out of it. A loud voice attracted everyone's attention. Hearing the sound, everyone looked over, only to see a figure running out of the mountain shrouded in poisonous smoke quickly, and his figure was slightly embarrassed.
"That man was not afraid of these poisonous smokes, he must have had an antidote or some treasure to avoid poison. ā
"You see that he is embarrassed, he must have suffered a loss inside, and his strength should not be too strong. ā
"That's easy, we tell him to hand over what can avoid drugs, and then we go in and have a look, with the strength of so many of us, we must have gained a lot. ā
Everyone was talking about it, looking excited, and they were all excited.
Soon, the figure rushed out of the poisonous smoke, this person was wearing a white robe, his clothes were already a little tattered, and there was some blood flowing out of the broken places, and the wounds inside could be faintly seen, he didn't look very old, only about twenty years old, and his right palm was stained with black liquid.
