Chapter 14: The Sword in the Mountain and River Town (12)

There are flowers in those greenhouses in the mountain gate monks, and in the face of the mountain monks who survive in the cruel world, they may indeed be counter-killed, but the mountain gate monks who can be counter-killed are definitely a minority, and most of the people who can enter the mountain gate to practice are more qualified than the mountain monks, and they are by no means defeated by strength.

Mountain monks can pit the monks of the same realm to death, but they definitely don't have the strength to match them head-on.

Especially for cultivators who have crossed the threshold of the Four Realms, there is no need to mention demonic characters, and the monks of the Mountain Gate who have only crossed the Four Realms in the year of confusion have also experienced a difficult stage, and the rich combat experience of the monks in the mountains and fields cannot have an absolutely invincible effect, but they only have some relative advantages, but in the face of absolute strength, these advantages are also insignificant.

After all, the monks of the mountain gate practiced powerful supernatural powers, and the methods of the monks of the mountains and fields were difficult to use, and they would be killed in the palm of their hands.

For example, with a wooden stick, even if you play a lot of tricks, you can't cut it with a sharp axe, and in the end, the stick is split in half.

Of course, it cannot be denied that the axe is rusty and the handle is cracked, resulting in the death of the stick, but that kind of situation only happens in the event of an accident.

There are no absolutes, but there are majorities and minorities.

The majority is naturally the accepted truth.

In the cultivation world, it is indeed a very rare thing to kill the enemy across the border, and the cross-border challenge and the cross-border killing are two different concepts, the former is to have the strength to fight with the strong, and the latter is to have the strength to fight back against the strong.

Just like once outside the South City Gate, Xiao Zhinan drew her sword under Zhuge Dan's Five Realms aura, which was a cross-border challenge, but it was only so, she still lost to Zhuge Dan.

Li Mengzhou crossed the border to defeat Lu Changge, and it was the same reason, he relied on his strong physique to defeat Lu Changge before he really exerted his strength, but he actually did not have the strength to kill Lu Changge.

And the reason why Lu Changge was easily killed in the prison of Xuan Zhengsi was not only because Lu Changge's mind was facing a collapse, but also because the prison of Xuan Zhengsi had a formation technique to suppress prisoners, so that Lu Changge had no ability to fight back.

Except for a few old guys in the mountains and fields, at the level of the same realm, they are basically weaker than the monks of the mountain gate, Li Mengzhou can cross the threshold of the four realms with half a foot to defeat Lu Changge, then in the face of the mountain monks in the same realm as Lu Changge, Li Mengzhou's chances of victory will be greater.

The most important thing is the Four Realms Wild Cultivation hidden in Guitou Slope, which stage of the Four Realms Threshold is it, if the realm is too different, Li Mengzhou can only escape.

Before this point is determined, it is impossible for Li Mengzhou to retreat without a fight, even if he believes in the principle of running if he can't fight, but it belongs to the pride of sword cultivation, and only after fighting first can he decide whether to run or not.

......

In the leafy mountain forest, Rong Catcher led dozens of brave catchers and approached the Guitou Slope at the fastest speed.

Suddenly, Rong Zhutou stopped and stretched out his hand to let the group of catchers stand by.

He listened carefully for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Who is coming?"

Xiao Zhinan appeared in Rong Zhutou's sight, she glanced at it very casually, and said, "It's very dangerous there in Guitoupo, you'd better go back the way you came." ”

Rong Zhutou recognized Xiao Zhinan, and he immediately arched his hand and said, "The girl is from the Northern Yan Sword House?"

Xiao Zhinan frowned slightly and said, "Do you recognize me?"

Rong Zhutou smiled and said: "I am naturally not qualified to recognize the girl, but there are many cultivators in Shanhe Town, as incumbents of the government, we should take it as our responsibility to protect the safety of the people, but we don't have the strength to fight against the cultivators, and the capital has a letter saying that there are people in Shanhe Town who can help us, and it is a man and a woman, and there are girls among them." ”

Xiao Zhinan said with some surprise: "How can the capital know that I am in Shanhe Town?"

Rong Zhutou said: "I don't know if the girl has heard of the Tianshu Academy, Tianshu's spies are everywhere, and it shouldn't be very difficult to find out where the girl is." ”

Xiao Zhinan was a little surprised, although the cultivators of the younger generation of Jiang Guo set off towards the Heavenly Forsaken Wasteland with different paths, there must be Heavenly Cardinal Council agents along the way who reported the situation in the capital in a timely manner, and it was indeed not difficult to know that they were in the mountain and river town.

Having said that, Xiao Zhinan still didn't like this feeling very much.

Rong Zhutou probably also noticed Xiao Zhinan's displeasure, and said: "There are many eyes of the Heavenly Academy, the purpose is just to better protect the people from threats, maybe the spies in Shanhe Town are not deliberate, it's just that they are here, and then they see you." ”

"For the dynasty, it is normal to plant spies, I believe that there are also eyes of Beiyan in the territory of Jiang Kingdom, but these eyes are not qualified to monitor the cultivation mountain gate. ”

He knew very well that the relationship between Jiang Guo and Beiyan was very tense, and compared to Xiao Zhinan from Beiyan, he trusted Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy of the Palace more than he could, but the cultivators of Beiyan did not necessarily have anything to do with the Beiyan court, after all, the rules of Beiyan were different from Jiang Guo's.

The powerful cultivation mountain gate is completely able to sit on an equal footing with the Northern Yan royal family, and even surpass the Northern Yan royal family, and Jiang Guo has a little balance on cultivators, because of the existence of the Thousand Seas Realm, cultivators need the court, and the court also needs cultivators, so there is no one who enslaves whom.

It is precisely because of this situation in Beiyan that as long as Lang Huan Jianlu and Beiyan Chaotang are separated, then even if Xiao Zhinan is a Yan person, Jiang Guo will not regard her as an enemy, but it is also necessary to pay more attention.

Rong Zhutou said: "Young Master Lin Zhanhong Lin also came to Guitoupo, he is just an ordinary person, I hope Miss Xiao can keep him safe, and I will take him back to Shanhe Town." ”

Xiao Zhinan's brows tightened, she looked back at a certain place, and said: "He's very safe there, no one will care about him, so it's okay to let him deeply understand the difference between himself and the cultivation world, and there won't be so many delusions." ”

......

Holding the knife in his hand tightly, Chen Chen looked at Li Mengzhou very uneasily, and whispered, "Mr. Li, is this really okay?"

Li Mengzhou took off the black green sword he was carrying behind him and said, "If you feel scared, just stand behind me obediently." ”

Blood dripping on the ground was particularly eye-catching.

He raised his head slightly, although there were dead trees all over the Ghost Head Slope, there were still some dead leaves left on some dead trees, and when the wild cultivators were fighting, blood splattered out, so that those dead wood leaves were also dyed red.

Li Mengzhou looked at this scene, did not show any emotion, his expression was still very flat, he looked at the several wild cultivators who were fighting in front of him, beckoned to Chen Chen and the others, and said, "Let's go around." ”

Of course, he was not afraid, but he wanted to find the cultivator of the Four Realms hidden in the Ghost Head Slope, and he was not interested in mixing with these wild cultivators.

As they walked some more way, his two friends, who were closely following Chen Chen, suddenly let out an exclamation. Chen Chen was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around and lowered his voice, "What's wrong?"

"What do you see that?"

Chen Chen's gaze swept over and his complexion changed greatly.

There was a man lying in the weeds, and one of his exposed arms was very dry, like dead wood everywhere, and if you didn't look closely, you might mistake it for just a broken branch.

Li Mengzhou stepped forward and swept away the weeds with the black green sword, revealing the full picture of that person.

His gaze was slightly startled.

It was a dried corpse.

He quietly observed the vicinity, but found no other dried corpses, and Chen Chen carefully touched the dried corpse with the back of his knife, and it turned into flying ashes in an instant.

"What the hell is this?"

Chen Chen obviously couldn't understand that although there were a lot of corpses on Guitoupo, such as those hanging from dead trees, that kind of corpse was obviously different from the dried corpses in the weeds, and it turned into a pile of ashes when touched lightly, which was also abnormal.

Li Mengzhou didn't speak, he thought seriously.

He had seen such a corpse before, it was forcibly plundered by people outside the mountain that the Qi Sea Spirit Yuan could only be caused by this phenomenon, and only when there was not half a drop of the Spirit Yuan plundered, and this corpse was very 'fresh', although it had dried up, but there was still a breath that had not been dissipated, not that the person was not dead, but that the unique aura of the cultivator could be perceived even after the person died, and then it would dissipate in a limited time.

This shows that the time of death is not very long, it should be just after death.

There are outsiders in the Guitou Slope!

Is it the cultivator who has the possibility of crossing the threshold of the Four Realms?

Li Mengzhou's expression became a little solemn.

If it was a Four Realms Wild Cultivator, he would still be able to fight, but if it was a cultivator outside the mountain, with their invincible characteristics in the same realm, I am afraid it would be a big trouble.

"But monks outside the mountain are also interested in the kind of spiritual things that can help cultivators break through the realm?"

Li Mengzhou was a little puzzled, the kind of technique that people outside the mountain practiced to plunder the spiritual elements of other cultivators to become stronger, which itself was equivalent to the kind of spiritual objects that could help cultivators break through the realm, as long as they plundered enough qi sea spiritual elements, they could easily cross the barrier that made cultivators have no way out.

There is no need to find an opportunity to break through the realm at all, as long as the time comes, they will naturally be able to cross the past, but there is no doubt that the Qi Sea Spirit Yuan they need must also be extremely large, and the higher the cultivation realm, the more Qi Sea Spirit Yuan they will need, but there are so many cultivators in the world, it is completely enough for them to plunder.

A thought flashed through Li Mengzhou's mind.

Perhaps the so-called spiritual creature that can help cultivators directly break through the realm is itself an ethereal thing, it is just a conspiracy of the monks outside the mountain, spreading rumors, attracting those wild cultivators to flock to it, and the people outside the mountain only need to wait in Shanhe Town to get a steady stream of Qi Sea Spirit Yuan.

Although most of the people outside the mountain are simple-minded, as long as they cross the threshold of the four realms, they will rethink themselves, and it is very stupid to blatantly plunder the cultivators, and if they hide in the shadows and let the cultivators come to the door by themselves, it will undoubtedly be the safest.

But the monks outside the mountains of the Four Realms only know how to think, and it is still difficult to suppress the desire in their hearts, and it is also very unbelievable to be able to come up with this kind of strategy, only people outside the mountains in the threshold of the Five Realms have such wisdom!
