Chapter 19: The Sword in the Mountain and River Town (17)
The billowing smoke rose up, and the catchers of Shanhe Town, who were standing not far away, covered their noses and coughed, and when the smoke gradually dissipated, Rong Zhutou drew his knife out of the sheath and looked at the huge pit with some caution.
The smoke swirled in the wind, and the gravel slid down the steep slope with a crisp crackling sound.
A hand reached out of the pit and grabbed the edge of the pit sharply.
The gray-headed Bai Luo jumped out of the pit with a gloomy face, and his eyes swept over the officials in Shanhe Town.
Rong Zhutou and the others seemed to be tightly watched by the beast, standing in place and unable to move, the hand holding the knife was sweating, and they clenched it repeatedly, but found that they were a little weak.
Bai Luo didn't care about them, as if he was looking for something, and finally looked in a certain direction, and said coldly: "You can't escape." ”
He searched again, directly ignored Rong Zhutou and the others, swept up, and soon disappeared.
After another moment, Rong Zhutou breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "The moment I was watched by those eyes, it actually felt like falling into an ice cave, as if I was being targeted by a fierce beast, wanting to choose people and devour them, cultivators shouldn't feel this way, could it be that this is the so-called monster in the ghost head slope?"
Although it was just one person, at that moment, there was indeed a feeling of encountering a monster, and Rong Zhutou had never had this experience of being terrified to the extreme.
"If Mr. Seven of the Palace Sword Academy was fighting this monster, then Mr. Seven should have won, but this monster is not dead, and the real danger has just begun. ”
......
Chen Chen stared at the figure coming out of the Ghost Head Slope, and asked with some uncertainty, "Mr. won?"
Li Mengzhou dragged Lin Zhanhong, threw him on the ground casually, and said, "Why are you still here?"
Chen Chen said: "I don't know, I just feel the sword intent of Mr., and I am a little reluctant to leave, it is really the only strength I have seen in my life." ”
Li Mengzhou said: "Then your knowledge is really very little. ”
Although there are also cultivators from the Four Realms in the mountains and wilderness, Chen Chen is not qualified to come into contact with them, and he has been wandering in the monks of the Second Realm all the year round, and occasionally encountering the monks of the Three Realms, Li Mengzhou's strength really amazed him.
"I didn't win. Li Mengzhou turned around and looked at the Ghost Head Slope and said, "That guy will soon kill all the cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope and then become stronger." ”
Chen Chen wanted to ask why this was the case, but he didn't ask after all, if Li Mengzhou could kill that monster, it would naturally not be this kind of result.
"So what are we going to do now? If that monster gets stronger, won't we become dangerous too?"
Li Mengzhou nodded and said, "He will chase me and kill me, and you, he may also solve it." ”
Chen Chen and his two friends were all flustered, "Mr. Li, then let's run away!"
Even Li Mengzhou can't win against that monster, and they're afraid it's not enough to even stuff people's teeth.
"Of course we have to escape, but we still have to wait for Rong to catch them out. ”
Li Mengzhou looked at Lin Zhanhong, who was sitting on the ground stunned, and said softly: "Now that you have witnessed the world of cultivators with your own eyes, do you still maintain that yearning? People with high qualifications will also face the end of death at any time, and like you have extremely poor qualifications, the possibility of even embarking on the path of cultivation is very small, even if you can become a cultivator, you will only fall into the mountains and wilderness, and you may be killed the moment you become a cultivator." ”
Lin Zhanhong didn't know how to answer, compared to the cruelty of the mountains and wilderness, obediently being an ordinary person, although very ordinary, but at least able to live, if he has a little bit of cultivation qualifications, he can gamble, and he will not regret seeing the excitement of the world, but even if he pursues the path of a cultivator, he will not have a wonderful life, and he will face death in an instant, so what is the meaning of pursuing a cultivator?
He wanted to become a cultivator, he definitely didn't want to die, and besides, he didn't have the qualifications to become a cultivator, and he couldn't even find the belief to hold on to.
Don't put a happy life, to fight for the excitement of that moment, is it worth it?
Li Mengzhou didn't want to wait for Lin Zhanhong's answer, so Rong Zhutou and a group of catchers walked out of the ghost head slope.
"Mr. Seven. Rong Zhutou saluted Li Mengzhou.
Li Mengzhou nodded slightly, and said: "After Bai Luo kills all the cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope, he will definitely come to kill me, Shanhe Town will become very unpeaceful, and Rong Zhutou needs to be arranged in the shortest possible time, I can't guarantee that it will not endanger the people of Shanhe Town." ”
He didn't plan to continue to fight with Bai Luo alone, because he knew very well that he couldn't win, and it was very unnecessary to endanger the people of Shanhe Town for that little face, but once the real battle started, no one could guarantee what the situation would be, and the people of Shanhe Town must stay away from the battlefield as much as possible.
Of course, he hopes to be able to solve Bailuo directly in the Ghost Head Slope, but this requires Xiao Zhinan to take action.
And Xiao Zhinan has returned to Shanhe Town, and he really doesn't care about the matter of Ghost Head Slope at all.
Li Mengzhou could only watch as Bai Luo plundered those wild cultivators' Qi Sea Spirit Yuan, becoming stronger and stronger.
......
The mountain and river town is quiet in the middle of the night.
The cool breeze blows lightly, sweeping away the heat.
Li Mengzhou came to the tavern.
The shopkeeper and his companions were all drowsy, and only Xiao Zhinan drank alone.
Chen Chen and his two friends followed Lin Zhanhong to the Lin Mansion, and Rong Zhutou was also preparing to clean up a battlefield.
The seemingly quiet mountain and river town is gradually becoming lively in secret.
"You already knew that there were outsiders in the Guitou Slope?" Li Mengzhou sat opposite Xiao Zhinan and poured himself a glass of wine.
Xiao Zhinan said lightly: "I just knew that there was an unusual cultivator there, but I didn't know that he was from outside the mountain. ”
Li Mengzhou said: "Then when you leave Guitoupo, aren't you deliberately cheating me?"
Xiao Zhinan said: "I asked you, and you agreed, thinking that since you can solve it yourself, why should I stay there?"
Li Mengzhou said with some annoyance: "I don't understand what you mean at all!"
Xiao Zhinan said: "That's your problem, what's my business." ”
It's really no wonder that Xiao Zhinan is just a little depressed, he exhaled and said, "That person from outside the mountain is about to break through the threshold of the Four Realms, and the hundreds of Qi Sea Spirit Yuan of the Wild Cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope are enough for him to break through the realm." ”
"I fought with him, and although he was evenly matched on the surface, he was like a Xiaoqiang who couldn't be killed, and I couldn't hurt him at all. ”
"Unless I can cross the threshold of the four realms, but obviously it's not that easy, but he can do it easily. Those cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope are no opponents at all, and even if we go to stop it now, it's too late, so we can only wait for him to come to us. ”
Xiao Zhinan said: "They are tempted by the so-called spiritual creatures that can help cultivators break through the realm, this kind of ending is a doomed thing, and they kill each other, even if there is no appearance of people from outside the mountain, they will eventually pit themselves to death." ”
"It's understandable for a cultivator to want to become stronger, but they also have to have brains, and if they don't even have such a thing as brains, then their cultivation will be all. ”
Li Mengzhou ignored Xiao Zhinan's obscenities that were somewhat inconsistent with her temperament, and said seriously: "I need your help." ”
Xiao Zhinan was silent for a moment and said, "It's just that the outsiders who have not crossed the threshold of the four realms are not qualified to let me use the sword." Even if he crossed that threshold, he would not be eligible. ”
Li Mengzhou said: "You can not use the sword, but you need to lend me a sword." ”
......
Thunder loomed from the dome.
The dark night grew darker.
A heavy rain seems to be brewing.
In the ghost head slope, there are corpses everywhere.
Bai Luo slowly straightened his waist, and his bones clicked.
There is a gilt golden light flickering on the surface of his skin, which is from the golden body of Nanyu Buddha Cultivator, in addition to the sword intent of the sword cultivator and the star infusion body of the star-picking monk, the people outside the mountain almost have the ability of the monk in the world.
The mental power of orthodox Confucian and Taoist monks, and the golden body of Nanyu Buddha.
The golden body of the Buddha is called the Vajra Holy Body, which should be the strongest body in the world except for the body of people outside the mountain, but it is a kind of magic, and it is no different from ordinary monks in ordinary times.
Monks outside the mountain can rely on directly plundering the Qi Sea Spirit Yuan to refine their physique, according to the level of qualification, breaking the realm requires plundering different amounts of Qi Sea Spirit Yuan, and the monks outside the mountain with slightly worse qualifications naturally need to plunder a larger base.
There is no need to visualize the aura of heaven and earth, nor do you need to practice hard, it is indeed a very terrifying thing to become strong by plundering the Qi Sea Spirit Yuan, and in the final analysis, in addition to breaking through the realm, the plundered Qi Sea Spirit Yuan is more used to refine the body, and the strong body is the foundation of the monks outside the mountain.
Of course, there is no way for the golden body of the Buddha to be plundered, although it needs to be urged by the Qi Sea Lingyuan, but the Vajra Holy Body is the magic technique of the Nanyu Buddha Cultivation, and the reason why the monks outside the mountain can plate a layer of gold on the skin can be traced back to a long time ago.
That was once a person from outside the mountain who plundered the origin of Nanyu Buddhism and obtained the cultivation method of the golden body, although it was only a fragmented part, but the Qi Sea Lingyuan plundered from other monks refined his own physique, and after the evolution of the years, it also allowed the monks outside the mountain to obtain a stronger physique than the golden body of the Buddha.
But in fact, the layer of golden crystals that appeared on the surface of the monk's body outside the mountain had been completely separated from the golden body of the Buddha, and it was not the same thing.
And only when the threshold of the four realms is crossed, this kind of golden crystal will appear on the surface of the monk's body outside the mountain, which is another realm before reaching the sanctification of the physical body.
There is no doubt that Bai Luo has crossed that threshold, and there is no longer a second living creature in the Ghost Head Slope.
He looked at the small town of mountains and rivers, his mouth let out a gloomy laugh, his yellowed teeth were exposed, and his eyes were bloodshot, like a real monster, "Wait for me to eat you!"
......
Thunder loomed in the night sky, but no rain fell.
Many mountain and river towns are running fast, and the people in their sleep are also awakened, and the peaceful mountain and river town has finally become no longer peaceful.
Li Mengzhou stood on the street facing the direction of Guitoupo, where a strong and extremely mixed aura climbed.
Rong Zhutou came to the front and whispered, "Mr. Seven, are you sure?"
Li Mengzhou said: "I will cut a sword in Shanhe Town, and if I can kill him, I will kill him, even if he can't be killed, he will become a half-ruined body." ”
The streets were empty, with only a gentle breeze.
Rong Zhutou pondered for a moment and said, "Although I really want to help Mr. Seven, I'm afraid that no one in Shanhe Town has such qualifications, so many cultivators have been killed, what kind of existence is that monster?"
Li Mengzhou said: "The targets they are all cultivators, although there is no guarantee that they will not kill ordinary people, but they have a strong desire to become stronger in their hearts, and they should not waste time on ordinary people, so Rong Zhutou does not need to worry too much." ”
Rong Zhutou said: "Then I will wait for Mr. Seven to win this game." ”
Li Mengzhou bowed slightly, he actually didn't have absolute confidence, especially when Yu Bailuo successfully crossed the threshold of the Four Realms, but he was also fully prepared, just waiting for Bailuo to appear in front of him.
At this time, in the Lin Mansion, Chen Chen was also watching, he didn't go to help, because he knew very well that even if he went, there was no point, and he didn't dare.
Hundreds of cultivators in the Guitou Slope are all dead, including many cultivators of the Three Realms, Chen Chen is like an ant in front of Bai Luo, it is good to be alive, who wants to take the initiative to die.
Lin Dafu walked out of Lin Zhanhong's room, he sighed slightly, and when he saw Chen Chen, he saluted very respectfully, and said, "This immortal, the dog really has no possibility of becoming a cultivator?"
Chen Chen also had a general understanding of what was going on with Lin Zhanhong, but his cultivation was limited, and there was no way to see through a person's cultivation qualifications, but Li Mengzhou and Xiao Zhinan had already made it very clear, he only hesitated for a moment, and then said: "My qualifications are also limited, and if I am on the path of cultivation, it is very likely that I will not be able to cross the threshold of the Three Realms in my life, and I will face the danger of losing my life at any time." ”
"I don't dare to say that Lin Gongzi can't become a cultivator, but qualification is very crucial, even if Lin Gongzi can visualize the aura of heaven and earth, he may not be recognized by the Dao Heaven, and if he can't be baptized by Amaterasu, he won't be able to travel far, and he won't be able to become a real cultivator. ”
In fact, Chen Chen was also a little tired in his heart, because he was a cultivator, he looked younger, at most thirty years old, but in fact, he was going to run for four soon, and the mountain monks couldn't continue to grow stronger through the cultivation of supernatural powers like the mountain gate monks, they didn't have that resource, even if they had the qualifications to step into a higher realm, they might not be able to find that opportunity in their lives.
Maybe at some point someone will kill someone.
Lin Zhanhong yearns for the world of cultivation, but Chen Chen also misses the time when he was an ordinary person.
He thinks that Shanhe Town is a very good place, and if he can settle here and get away from the mountains, it seems to be a good choice.
......
Xiao Zhinan stood on an eaves, holding his sword and staring at the figure slowly walking at the end of the street.
Her eyes were calm and clear, free of any impurities.
Bai Luo stood in front of Li Mengzhou, and he grinned.
"I've heard a long time ago that your sword cultivators are very arrogant, and if that's the case, you actually watched me plunder those cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope, do you regret it now?"
Li Mengzhou chuckled lightly and said: "You think a little too much, Jian Xiu is very arrogant, but he will not watch his opponent become stronger and put himself in a passive position, I don't want to explain, I can't figure it out if I think about it, so be so proud." ”
He deliberately watched Bai Luo plunder those wild cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope, but he had no way to stop it, this was a very shameless thing, but Bai Luo obviously couldn't think of this.
In the quiet town of mountains and rivers, the breeze is blowing.
Li Mengzhou looked at Bai Luo with a calm expression and said, "Actually, what I'm curious about is that what the people outside the mountain will do besides plundering the Qi Sea Lingyuan of other monks?"
Bai Luo frowned and said: "You only need to plunder the Qi Sea Spirit Yuan to fill your stomach, and you can continue to become stronger, becoming stronger is the most important thing, why waste time on other things." ”
Li Mengzhou shook his head and said: "The monks outside the mountain have an indestructible physique, and they can plunder the qi sea spirit yuan of other monks, this is indeed a very troublesome thing, even the monks outside the mountain have mental power, and they can also practice supernatural powers, but it seems that the monks outside the mountain have nothing they are really good at except for continuous plunder, and your attack methods are also very simple." ”
In fact, it is true, aside from the indestructible physique and the method of plundering the sea of qi, the only means of fighting for the monks outside the mountain is the suppression of the aura, or hand-to-hand combat, but it is precisely because of the simplicity that it shows the strength of the monks outside the mountain.
The road is simpler, and the more complicated things are, the more troublesome they are.
The monks outside the mountain have only one means, but they are strong enough, no matter what you do, I will not move.
This is obviously not a bad thing for the monks outside the mountain.
But Li Mengzhou wanted to find the weakness of the monks outside the mountain, and there could be no perfect existence in the world.
Of course, the monks themselves are not perfect.
Their early violence, uncontrollable desires, and inability to recognize whether the opponent is strong or weak, it is easy to go to a dead end.
However, the monks outside the mountain who crossed the threshold of the four realms were able to selectively avoid the strong, pick soft persimmons to plunder, know how to develop obscenely, and gradually began to approach perfection.
But it is impossible for the monks outside the mountains above the four realms to be without weaknesses, in addition to their IQ is still somewhat lacking, there must be a destiny, but Li Mengzhou has not found it for the time being.
No one even discovered the location of the monks outside the mountain.
Because a weak cultivator has only a dead end when he encounters a monk outside the mountain, and a strong cultivator can also kill a weak monk outside the mountain at will, and the monk outside the mountain is invincible in the same realm, resulting in the life of the monk outside the mountain has never been exposed, which is also a very peculiar thing.
Bai Luo didn't want to talk nonsense with Li Mengzhou, he was holding a knife in his hand that he didn't know where to get it, it was estimated that it was picked up directly from the corpses of those wild cultivators in the Ghost Head Slope, and at this moment he strode towards Li Mengzhou, and said: "Before, you really beat me very painfully, and now, I'm going to tear you apart!"
The thunder from the dome flickered again, and a bolt of lightning suddenly fell, exploding in the sky above the mountain and river town, and the traces like electric snakes were very clear, as if they had stagnated for several breaths, so that everyone could see them, but when they really wanted to see clearly, it had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
The aura of heaven and earth is converging towards the mountain and river town.
Xiao Zhinan, who was standing on the eaves, frowned and observed.
The aura of heaven and earth in the mountain and river town is very peculiar, scattered but not gathered, but now, this kind of problem seems to have disappeared.
Obviously, what caused this to happen was Bailuo.
In other words, the scattered and ungathered aura of heaven and earth in the mountain and river town only appeared after Bai Luo came here.
And now, Bai Luo has crossed the threshold of the four realms, allowing the aura between heaven and earth to be pulled and condensed again.
Xiao Zhinan was very confused, before this, Bai Luo was just an outsider from the three realms, how could he let the aura in the entire mountain and river town disperse and not gather?
That was something that only a formation magician could do, except for the Great Cultivators of the Five Realms.
Xiao Zhinan didn't pay attention to the battle that was about to start on the street, she swept in a certain direction of Shanhe Town.
......
......
The capital, the Imperial Sword Temple.
Under the moonlight, one old and one young, sitting and standing, their figures were reflected on the surface of the lake, rippling slightly, and their figures were twisted like snakes.
Ning Haoran looked at it very seriously and said softly, "There is something strange in Shanhe Town. ”
Xue Wangwu was lying on the bamboo chair, squinting his eyes and humming in his mouth.
Ning Haoran couldn't see it really, he said in confusion: "The person from outside the mountain that the junior brother met is also very strange, obviously he has just crossed the four realms, why is his performance no different from Zhuge Dan?"
Xue Wangwu muttered vaguely: "Although the number of paths of people outside the mountain can make cultivators with very poor qualifications take a big step forward again, even if they continue to plunder the cultivator's Qi Sea Spirit Yuan, they can also continue to break through the realm. ”
"But it's not that there are no qualifications, cultivators who are originally very poor, even if they are classified outside the mountain, but due to the restrictions of their qualifications, they need to plunder a huge number of Qi Sea Spirit Yuan, and they may not be able to meet the standard of continuing to break through the realm in their lifetime. ”
"But there is no doubt that no matter how bad their qualifications are, they can cross the threshold of the four realms, but if they want to continue to move forward, it will also become very difficult, let alone the people outside the mountains who can cross the five realms. ”
"The reason why the outsider in Shanhe Town is a little special is definitely because his qualifications are very high, and if he continues to grow, it will be a matter of time before he crosses the threshold of the Five Realms. ”
Ning Haoran's eyes widened in surprise and said, "In this way, the little junior brother is a genius who has met the world outside the mountain?"
Xue Wangwu said: "Even if you are not from outside the mountain, with that kid's qualifications, you are enough to cross the four realms, but it is not as fast as now, your junior brother has just gone out and met such an opponent, but it is really very lucky." ”
Ning Haoran said with some concern: "Even if the junior brother borrows a sword from Miss Xiao, but when the gap between the two sides' cultivation is too large, it is not so easy to win against that outsider. ”
