Chapter 163: Why Hurry Up?
Flying for ten days, with a pool python as a companion along the way, Xu Ran was not very boring, through these ten days of asking questions and questions, he also had a preliminary understanding of the demon cultivation forces underground. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Earth Demon Ridge, which is controlled by a Yuan Ying Hall Lord, has hundreds of thousands of miles of territory in the underground, and in addition to the Earth Demon Ridge, there are also some other small demon cultivation forces, these forces are like stars in the sky, so many that they are countless.
And a little further west of the Earth Demon Ridge is the Flood Wilderness, that place, the demon beasts are rampant, including too many powerful demon beasts, so that area is not included in their underground.
And the Earth Demon Ridge went east, passing through a lot of demon cultivation forces, including the poisonous toad clan that Xu Ran went to this time, and the Qiulong Cave where the spirit dogs went to it were also among them, and further east, there were three major forces, and those forces had many branches.
And any one of these branches, any one of them, can bulldoze the entire Earthshatter Ridge!
It's just a branch, and it's as strong as a force!
These three major forces are under the entire Northern Wilderness.
These forces have too many demon cultivators under their command, because the forces themselves are too strong, and they are placed in the underground, and almost all demon cultivators know that this kind of behemoth, even some immortal cultivators in the outside world, do not dare to attack it easily.
I heard that among the three major demon cultivation forces, the strongest one has reached the realm of transforming into a god!
A strong person with this kind of strength can be regarded as a rare existence in the Northern Wilderness, even if he turns the clouds and rain with one hand.
"Underground Demon Cultivation..."Xu Ran showed a trace of yearning in his heart, and at the same time, it also aroused his desire for power, he knew that among the three major forces, the competition must be more fierce and more cruel, and strength is the real standard.
"However, this pool python has nothing to say to me. Xu Ran sneered, he didn't know that this pool python was waiting for the opportunity, along the way, not only his pool python was waiting for the opportunity, but Xu Ran was the same.
He won't stupidly wait for others to kill him, so while being vigilant, he can't be guessed by the Chi python on his mind, this journey can be described as difficult.
The most annoying thing is that this pool python's vigilance is heavier than him, and there are several times on the way, he wants to use the black stone to sneak attack the pool python, after all, the other party is the fifth layer of Jindan, and if he doesn't work hard, only if the sneak attack seriously injures the latter, the other party will not pose any threat to himself.
However, every time this kind of opportunity is resolved, it will be resolved by the pool python, as if his every move has been seen through by the latter.
"Hundreds of years of demon cultivators... It's scary. Xu Ran shook his head, he has only lived for more than ten years, and to deal with this kind of old monster, the city government and scheming are not comparable.
"He's still hesitating. Along the way, I had a good opportunity, but I still didn't do anything to me. Xu Ran was constantly speculating on the other party's thoughts, but he didn't understand what the reason for the other party to wait so long.
Whoosh!
Two streamers flew by.
Three days passed in a hurry.
"It's here. Chi Python said softly, Xu Ran followed behind him, his eyes swept down, and he couldn't help pouting.
"The leader of this poisonous toad clan is really narcissistic.." Xu Ran saw the underground palace in front of him, the architectural structure was far from being comparable to their Disha Ridge, and the most important thing was that in the center of this underground palace, there was a huge sculpture carved from obsidian, in the shape of a crouching giant toad.
Underneath the giant toad, there are quite a few demon cultivators. Armed with weapons, they constantly patrol the surroundings.
"Whether it is from the scale of the dungeon or from the strength of the demon cultivator, it is much worse than the Earth Demon Ridge. Xu Ran couldn't help but shake his head.
"Hehe, Xu Ran Protector, this poisonous toad clan, to put it mildly, is just some mountain grass cowards, among them, the strongest strength is only three Jindan sixth-layer, not even comparable to the eight caves of my Xifu, let alone the Earth Demon Ridge. Chi Python reminded softly on the side.
As they spoke, they had come to the main gate of the poisonous toad clan.
"Let's talk about it, say that it is the protector of the Earth Devil Ridge, who has come here to visit the leader. Chi Python spoke casually to the two demon soldiers at the gate, and his words were indifferent and did not contain the slightest emotion.
The demon soldier's eyes narrowed slightly, glanced at the python, and suddenly his face changed greatly, the latter's strength, he couldn't see through it at all, and this person gave himself the feeling that no one could match it except the leader.
Especially those cold eyes, like a poisonous snake staring at him, instantly made him hairy, and hurriedly entered the palace to confess.
"Chi Python Protector, we came here this time for the purpose of intercepting and killing the two Dharma Protectors of the Eastern Mansion, and now the swaggering proclamation is not to startle the snake?" Xu Ran was a little puzzled.
Hearing this, Chi Python turned his head and smiled at Xu Ran's easy-going smile, and then spoke, "You're right, but... We don't know if the protector of the Eastern Mansion has arrived, so instead of hiding here and waiting, it is better to strike preemptively, a small poisonous toad palace, how long do you think they can hide?"
"Besides, what I said just now is just talking about the Dharma Protector of the Earth Shatter Mountains, not the West Mansion or the East Mansion. ”
"Even if they can recognize us, as far as I know, among the Dharma Protectors of the Dongfu who came this time, they are the Dharma Protectors of the Hou Si Dong, and although I am not familiar with them, I also have a relationship.
Among them, the strongest is the Linglong Protector of the Fifth Cave, the body is a rat demon, and the strength is the fifth layer of Jindan, and the Qinghe Protector of the sixth cave, the body is a Ma Lu, and the strength of the Jindan is five layers. None of them are as strong as me, so there's nothing to worry about. ”
After listening to Chi Python's analysis, Xu Ran suddenly realized, yes, I don't know if I arrived first or the other party arrived first, if I wait here, it will be bad if I miss it. Moreover, the current situation is more favorable to their own side, after all, the other party does not know the news that they have also come to the West Mansion to poison the toad clan.
Even if they arrived first, what Chi Python said just now did not mention the East and West Mansions, but directly said the Disha Ridge, which could disturb the other party. It's also misleading.
After a while, the demon soldier reappeared, and behind him, there was a man in a black robe, I saw that this man was very ugly, his eyes were empty, and he saw the python from afar, and immediately laughed and quickened his pace.
"It's the Pool Python Protector.."
"Three leaders, long time no see. The pool python returned to indifference.
"Now that the eldest brother is in retreat, the second brother is already waiting in the palace, please come in. "The three chiefs have arrived politely.
Chi Python did not hesitate, stepped in, Xu Ran took a deep breath, the Disha Ridge has a great reputation in this tens of thousands of miles of territory, and most of the demon cultivators have heard of it in the sixteen caves of the two mansions, as for why these three leaders know Chi Python.
Or is it because during the ceremony of the Disha Ridge, the three leaders went to the Disha Ridge on behalf of the Poison Toad Palace, and they all had a relationship with the protectors of the Sixteen Caves.
Xu Ran also followed, and glanced at the man, who frowned, a little surprised, as if this person had not seen it himself.
"He is my Xifu, the new Dharma protector of the eighth cave, Xu Ran Dharma protector. Chi Python opened his mouth very enthusiastically, but the man was stunned, and in his impression, the character of this Chi Python didn't seem to be so... Sunlight.
This made him look at Xu Ran even more suspiciously.
"Three chiefs. Xu Ran nodded slightly and withdrew his gaze.
"Xu Ran protects the Dharma. ”
"By the way, I heard that the Dharma Protector of the Eastern Mansion arrived at your Poison Toad Palace a few days ago, but is there such a thing?" Chi Python said, very casually.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Ran noticed the man's expression intentionally or unintentionally.
"Dongfu Protector?" The man's eyes froze, revealing confusion, and his eyebrows were raised, "In the past few days, I have been in the palace, in the Disha Mountains, except for you, no other Dharma protectors have come, I don't know..." What happened?"
"Didn't come?" Xu Ran's heart jumped, he used his spiritual sense to constantly observe the man's expression, and he couldn't detect the loophole at all, as if he was explaining a fact, but if it was acting, it was too realistic.
"Is that true?" Chi Python confirmed.
"Naturally, why should I deceive the Chi Python Protector, what happened?" The man was a little puzzled, he didn't know what the Chi Python wanted to say, although his strength had reached the sixth layer of Jindan, but the Chi Python in front of him had a lot of pressure on him, and he had a feeling that even if he let himself fight with the Chi Python alone, he was afraid that he would lose the upper hand.
Moreover, the background of the other party is that the power reaches tens of thousands of miles in the Disha Ridge, even if a mansion is dispatched, it is not something that their Poison Toad Palace can catch.
For this kind of person, even if they have an advantage in cultivation strength, they still have to lower their posture.
"Hehe, Chi just asked casually, and asked the three leaders not to spread the news of our arrival. Chi Python asked.
The man was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"I wonder where the second leader is now?"
Chi Python chuckled and glanced at Xu Ran, he could see that the three leaders were not lying, so he was a little surprised, he didn't expect that his side got the news, and he hurried at full speed, and actually came to the Poison Toad Palace before they protected the Dharma in the East Mansion.
However, it saved them a lot of trouble.
"The second brother has been waiting in the main hall for a long time. The three leaders opened their mouths with a smile, and led the way in front of them.
Xu Ran's heart was also relieved, and he tried his best to keep up.
......
A place thousands of miles away from the Poison Toad Palace.
"Linglong Dharma Protector, you said that we can't relax after we have been on the road for so long? Isn't the matter of the divine soldier already handed over to the Qinghe Dharma Protector to handle, our task is much simpler than theirs. "A purple-robed man, handsome and bewitching, with a fair complexion, spoke lazily.
"Ziyang, along the way, stop and go, haven't you rested enough?" A nice voice came out, this was a woman's voice, I saw a woman, dressed in a dark green shirt, with a beautiful face, and her lips were also heavy turquoise, very weird.
"Look at this poisonous toad palace, it's only a thousand miles, hurry up and hurry, it's only an hour or two, along the way, we have persuaded how many demon cultivation forces, and we don't care about these one or two, what are you worried about?" the purple-robed man complained dissatisfiedly.
"Hurry up, I always feel like it's all going too well. Smooth is a little quirky. Linglong's gaze froze, it was the direction of the Poison Toad Palace, and his body flickered, and he disappeared directly in place.
"You..." Ziyang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and disappeared into the void.
In just two hours, the figures of the two appeared in a reckless wasteland palace.
"This is the Poison Toad Palace. Linglong spoke.
"Tsk... The natives are the natives, and they will never be able to get on the stage, and they can't be compared with our Disha Mountains at all. Ziyang took a sip, revealing disdain.
"Well, don't say more. Linglong scolded, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"After greeting your leader, I will say that the Dharma Protector of the East Mansion of the Disha Ridge will come to pay a visit. Linglong stepped forward and said directly to the demon soldiers.
"It's the Earth Demon Ridge again..."The demon soldier saw the strength of the person who came, his face changed slightly, and he couldn't help but speak.
"Huh?"
Hearing this, the corners of Ziyang's mouth twitched, and a terrifying killing intent instantly emanated from his body, enveloping the top of the demon soldier's head, and a sinister aura instantly permeated his body, only to see that the demon soldier's face was pale and his feet were soft, and he knelt on the ground in an instant.
"Just now, you said, it's the Earth Demon Ridge again, what's going on?" Ziyang's eyebrows furrowed, although he was lazy, his heart was suspicious.
"It's just... It's just two... Two hours ago, there was... There are also two self-proclaimed ... It's the Devil's Ridge.. The protector of the Dharma, still. Or the three leaders greeted him personally. The demon soldier was frightened, his speech trembled, and he was very panicked, and the other demon soldier beside him was already so frightened that he leaned against the stone wall, trembling.
"Claiming to be the protector of the Earth Demon Mountains?" Linglong heard this, and instantly became vigilant, it stands to reason that the news that they are coming to the Poison Toad Palace, except for their group, no one else knows about it, but now...
"Something seems wrong." The two looked at each other, both suspicious.
"Could it be Qinghe them?" Linglong shook his head instantly when he first said this, now the Qinghe Protector is rushing to the Qiulong Cave with divine soldiers, how could he come to this poisonous toad palace.
"Since it's not Qinghe, they... That.." Linglong's eyes were confused, and the word "Sichuan" formed in the center of her eyebrows.
"Do you know, the names of these two Dharma protectors?" Ziyang spoke again, with a strong threat in his words, he didn't care about the life or death of these demon soldiers, even the three leaders of the Poison Toad Palace, he was not afraid, he was the protector of the East Mansion of the Earth Demon Ridge, and his strength had reached the fifth layer of Jindan, who would dare to touch him?
Therefore, even if they killed this demon soldier, the leader of their Poison Toad Palace would not be able to make a move against him.
"I... I don't know!" The demon soldier knew that he had said the wrong thing, and his heart was suddenly awe-inspiring, he had just received the news that he wanted to hide the information of the arrival of the pool python, but because of an unintentional mistake, it caused this kind of disaster.
"I don't know, you're looking for death!" Ziyang punched the demon soldier's body, the other party was only a layer of Jindan, his chest instantly sunken, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his breath withered.
This punch is not enough to die.
After all, the vitality of the Jindan Realm is still very strong.
"I'll ask you one last time, what is that person's name!" The purple robe behind Ziyang, hunting, with murderous intent in his eyes, he didn't joke with this demon soldier at all. If the latter's answer displeased him, he would definitely kill him.
"It's called Chi Python. Another demon soldier leaning against the stone wall finally couldn't stand it anymore and said tremblingly, but at the moment he said it, his whole body went limp, and he fainted because of excessive fear.
"Pool python?!"
"It's from Xifu!"
The two looked at each other, and their faces changed greatly.
"The situation has changed, withdraw!" Linglong was very decisive, he knew what it meant for the people from Xifu to appear here, and their news was probably completely leaked out!
But just as the two of them were about to leave, in the void, two wind-breaking sounds sounded, extremely fast and roaring.
"You two, since you're here, why rush to leave?"
