Chapter 47: The Phantom
Yuhu Mountain is just an ordinary mountain, slightly higher than the side and has no characteristics.
Because of the need to mark this area on the map, the name of the hill that stands out from the crowd has no special meaning.
At this time, Lin Heng was standing on the bare top of Yuhu Mountain, stuffing jerky into his mouth.
After looking around roughly just now, the treasure hunt didn't respond, and no other traces were found.
Come to think of it, if the traces are obvious, the eight achievements will not have this trial task.
Incurable diseases will not be easy to deal with.
"Which direction should I look for" Lin Heng looked in all directions, pondering in his heart.
In the absence of clues, it is a matter of luck to find in any direction.
Maybe the evil ghost went to some village again, and it was a waste of time to find it in the Yunyong Mountains.
But that's the way it is, just assume that it's in the mountains, hiding somewhere, or moving around.
Judging from the previous inference, the evil ghost may have been a wood martial artist before his death, and he specialized in devouring the essence of women, or used it for cultivation, or hobbies, in addition, the evil spirit could not 'not eat or drink', it needed the essence of heaven and earth, or the essence of living beings.
The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the mountain range is also thin, and I am afraid that it will not be able to satisfy the evil spirit.
That's the clue to follow.
Until you find a clue, it's just a matter of trying your luck everywhere.
Lin Heng is not afraid, the innate yuan liquid runs the exercises on its own, and there are more than ten yuan stones in the backpack, so the improvement of cultivation is not delayed, and the ordinary traces do not need to be concentrated, and you can practice the stick method and arrow method while looking for it.
"Then ...... Start in the southeast direction and go up to 100 miles"
Slapped off the jerky condiments in his hands, tightened his backpack, carried a long stick, and walked down the mountain.
Half a day after he left, Wan Linghao and a man in his forties came to Yuhu Mountain.
The man is sturdy, his appearance is not unusual, he is carrying a bow and arrows, and he is holding a spear, which is exactly what Wan Linghao called 'Uncle Chang'.
The full name is Wan Jinchang, he is a martial artist who has been cultivating for two or three years when he first entered the Seventh Layer, and he came together this time, mainly to take care of Wan Linghao's safety, the ten thousand families are powerful, how can there be no enemies, and there are many wild beasts and fierce beasts in the Yunyong Mountain Range, and the danger is everywhere, and the search for evil spirits will be common everywhere, dangerous things may happen anytime and anywhere, and they have to be guarded against, and they have to wait for them to break through to the Seventh Fold, so that they can truly break independent.
"Uncle Chang, I can't find the slightest clue about the evil spirit, so I can only start from one direction first" Wan Linghao's face was quite irritable.
Wan Jinchang's expression was slightly depressed, and he said, "This trial task, the most difficult thing is to find, the evil ghost is not an object, how can you stay stupid in one place, if you don't see us coming, you will run away in advance, it is really difficult, the martial arts give a thousand points of trial contribution."
"I thought that a thousand points was a lot, but it turned out that there was not even a clue to the root hair, and I might have to run for nothing" Wan Linghao hesitated.
Wan Jinchang glanced at the surrounding mountains, and then said, "The evil spirit is formed by the seven spirits, most of them like yin and not yang, let's start from the northeast first, find a little clue to lock the range, during the period, find some medicine and treasures, kill a few brute beasts and fierce beasts to hone their martial arts, and it will not waste time"
As they spoke, the two of them went down the mountain and walked in a northeast direction.
"You said that there is another person who has received the trial mission, will he have arrived?"
"Only walked for half an hour early, unless he traveled day and night, he couldn't compare to you and my uncle and nephew, Uncle Chang, you mean, he has already arrived, and he may have found traces, and erased them, so that others can't do it."
"Yes, this possibility cannot be ruled out, the human heart is insidious, what is this"
"Who could it be, how many people are there, is it possible that Lin Heng still dares to go out of the city?"
"It's best to be that mess, dare to bully Ling Yu's head, Wan Jinfan is too unfavorable, who is looking for, he dares to use brute beasts to riot, how many families have he offended at once, just kill that mess, and let him come back alive, Wufu was furious, and ordered all families to cooperate in the investigation, once the mastermind behind the scenes is determined, no matter what the force is, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, who is this for"
"Wan Jia's reputation has been damaged recently, and Lin Heng has caused it, if you want to meet him this time, you must not let him die simply"
"He has a heaven-level martial art, I heard that it is an archery technique, and his cultivation is making rapid progress, and you may not be his opponent if he drags on for a month, just in case, I will kill him directly."
Hearing this, Wan Linghao didn't answer again, will I be his opponent?
......
It's not a chore to put your mind set and search around.
There is no shortage of skills to make fun in suffering.
The mountains and forests are covered with a layer of snow, except for paying attention to leaving fewer footprints and other traces, there is no place where Lin Heng needs to be too vigilant, with the existing cultivation strength, he is not afraid of any brute beast, even if it is stronger than the mountain shaking and violent bear, the enemy can still run away, as for the fierce beast, it is not easy to find it if it is not too deep into the mountains.
You can concentrate on pondering stick and archery.
The power of the dragon and tiger can also be cultivated, and it is not and cannot be cultivated alone.
Whether it is cultivating martial arts, or sinking down to feel the mysteries of the exercises, the power of the dragon and tiger can be cultivated.
According to Lin Heng's understanding, it is mutual gain.
The power of the dragon and tiger can make the skills of the martial arts more refined and profound, and the skills of the martial arts can make the power of the dragon and tiger be improved.
And the power of the dragon and tiger and the killing implication of the innate yuan liquid are inextricably linked, and they follow each other like shadows.
The cultivation of martial arts, exercises, and the power of the dragon and tiger is unified.
Cultivating the Tao with martial arts, enlightening the Tao with martial arts, and practicing the Tao with martial arts.
"Whirlwind, waves, winds, golden tremors, explosions, and thunderbolts are all in one skill, first simplifying, then deepening, the core is the meaning of killing, which is the power of the dragon and tiger"
Lin Heng shook his head and waved the long stick at will.
If you inadvertently miss any clues, there is nothing you can do.
He can't use all his energy to search for traces inch by inch without a clue, the time is short, but it takes a long time to delay his cultivation, and he must work hard for the sake of ground-level martial arts, but there is no urgency to search for such a thing, there is a treasure hunting disk, which is somewhat helpful.
Take your time, as long as the evil ghost is in the mountains, don't be afraid that it won't show its tail.
Lin Heng was not in a hurry or impatient.
Although we can't understand anything from the nature of the mountains and wilderness, the recklessness and majesty of the mountains and wilderness can nourish people's hearts after all.
The Yunyong Mountains are vast and vast, and the clouds are steaming.
Lin Heng was like sand and gravel here, but he was comfortable on foot.
"I shoot, I shoot ......"
Facing a huge mountain rock, Lin Heng glared and clapped his palms.
The strength of the palm was arrogant, setting off gusts of wind, and the momentum was huge.
The huge rock stood still.
If Lin Heng attacks with a stick, or swings out the true yuan, he can beat this ordinary mountain stone to pieces, he has no enmity with the mountain stone, so he will not do this, just because he remembers what his father Lin Hongshan once said to him, 'If the palm of the hand is pressed, you can make the 10,000 catties of boulder collapse', he wants to try his dragon and tiger might, whether he has this ability.
He felt that it should be possible.
The trick against the brute beast that day, he was excited to think about it.
If you can do one or two, it may be your biggest killer move.
If he can't do it now, he doesn't care, maybe the mood is different, and its power is also different, each has its own merits.
Moreover, the power of the dragon and tiger has made him very satisfied, in addition to the 'mutual gain', the increase in the power of martial arts alone makes people feel like a treasure.
"It doesn't seem to be the same as 'My heart is towering'"
"The power of the dragon and tiger, the perfection of the exercises, what is the providence physique?"
"How it came to be"
Lin Heng didn't continue to entangle on the boulder, and with a volley of his palm, the Flying Feather Divine Bow was condensed.
Although "Painting the Bow to Invite the Sky and the Moon" belongs to the heaven-level martial arts of the Jin Xing, it can still increase the power of the dragon and the tiger to each other, so that his mastery of the martial arts is very fast, and it is not too far from entering the house.
Pull the bowstring, and the cloud-piercing arrow quickly condenses into a ......
Heavy snow and light snow, one at both ends in three days.
Lin Heng's search this time has passed more than a month.
In terms of cultivation, there is progress every moment, and the sand accumulates into a tower.
Except for killing a brute beast that entangled him, he never used the killer again, but under the reminder of the treasure hunting disk, he harvested two medicinal herb rhizomes, even if it was only the medicinal herbs used to refine Pei Yuan Dan, it was the first generation with sufficient medicinal power, and the two yuan stones were still worth it.
In addition to this, he also found the remains of a brute beast.
The remains of the brute beast were very strange, they were not normal deaths, there were no wounds on the outside, and the flesh was very shriveled.
It is likely that it was done by evil spirits, and if it was, then it should have become stronger, and instead of sucking the spirit of ordinary people, it should be a brute beast.
Lin Heng focused on a detailed search in this area, paying attention to trees, rocks, stone crevices, etc.
Occasionally, some powders are sprinkled that may have some luring effect on evil spirits.
But after searching for about ten days, nothing else was found.
"If you search again, it will be more than 100 miles"
Lin Heng looked at the brief map on the "Mountain Travel Notes", more than a month, the scope of his search is very large, from the map, it is now in the southeast of the Huhu Mountain, if the scope is expanded, it will be more than 100 miles deep into the mountain range, on the map, draw a red line at the position of 100 miles, to show warning, and then continue to go deeper, the danger encountered will multiply.
"Search!"
Lin Heng tightened the long stick in his hand and expanded the range.
It's been so many days of searching, and it has to go on, whether it's all in vain or not.
Before leaving, he had also decided that whether there was a result or not, he would return to Wufu when he arrived in Liudacheng.
His gaze swept everywhere and hurried forward.
One or two hundred steps behind him, a phantom flashed by.
Its movement speed is too fast for the Sevenfold Warriors to match.
The phantom was attached to the trunk of the tree, and it was almost impossible to see any difference from the trunk, and as it wriggled, it was a black and cyan mist that was about to drip water, faintly outlining a very ugly man's face.
