Chapter Eighty-Four: Adventures in the Wilderness

It was getting dark, and the fiery red sunlight finally fell on the side of the Dark Mountain.

The ground that had been steamed and roasted for a day wafted out a slight cool air softly, like the spring when everything was recovering, and all kinds of animals that had escaped the heat during the day quietly came out of their holes and began to hunt.

When the moon rose overhead, Long Yunzhou's team quietly left the city under the escort of twenty Phoenix City Phoenix Fire Divine Guards and embarked on a journey to Qianmu Spirit Mountain.

The Phoenix Fire Divine Guard is the personal guard of the Phoenix City Lord, the number is extremely limited, and the bloodline is pure, and everyone has a superb cultivation.

They were chosen from childhood, underwent rigorous training, and it was not until the age of eighteen that those who passed were awarded the title of Phoenix Fire Divine Guard.

In Phoenix's sphere of influence, the Phoenix Fire Divine Guard is a mysterious and very attractive name.

They are the personal guards of the Phoenix City Lord, the eyes of the City Lord, the hands of the City Lord, and the feet of the City Lord. They are the raging fire in the darkness, and they are the sharpest spears in the chest of the enemy.

Huang Ziqi asked these twenty Phoenix Fire God Guards to escort Long Yunzhou and his party, which had a deep intention.

Seeing that the Phoenix Fire Divine Guard was like seeing the city lord coming in person, Huang Ziqi actually wanted to save Long Yunzhou's life, at least with the Phoenix Fire Divine Guard, the old diehards of the Yu clan would not attack him easily.

Huang Yushang has the only blood and bone left in this world, although Huang Ziqi hates Long Batian to death, but he has to try his best to save Long Yunzhou's life. Because if Long Yunzhou died, then there would be no trace of Huang Yushang's existence in this world.

A group of people took advantage of the darkness to leave the city, and the desolate road led straight to the Dark Mountain.

Legend has it that the Dark Mountain was also part of the Dragon Soul Continent a long time ago, but in the end, because of a war, the current polarization appeared.

The Dragon God and the Phoenix God worked together to imprison the defeated opponent in the Dark Mountain, and they were never allowed to take a step out of the Dark Mountain. But times have changed, and the glorious era of the past has long passed, and the demon gods imprisoned in the dark mountain have produced countless descendants.

In the Mountains of Darkness, they are bent on restoring their former glory. The demons are getting stronger and stronger, and the contradictions between the Dragon Soul Continent and the Dark Mountain are getting more and more serious, so this road has not been traveled for many years.

"We must get off the road, and if we go any further, we will be discovered by the demons. "After walking for about four hours, it was already late at night, and the captain in charge of the team leader in the Fenghuo Divine Guard reminded Ling Yun.

Ling Yun sighed, let the Phoenix Fire Divine Guard lead the way, and turned from the main road to a rocky path.

In fact, Ling Yun didn't like these Phoenix Fire Divine Guards very much, and always felt that they were sent by Huang Ziqi to monitor his group of people.

Although Huang Ziqi seems to be crazy, he is actually thoughtful. If he can sit in Phoenix City and compete with the huge demons in the Dark Mountain alone, he is definitely not an unreliable person.

Long Yunzhou rode on the horse, still thinking about the conversation with Huang Ziqi during the day. He was no longer so sad, but he was thinking about something else.

Huang Ziqi said that he had something in his hand that could restore his blood to normal, and that his parents also died for that thing. Why had he never heard Xingyue say it before? If there were, Xingyue would have told him.

And Huang Yusheng, who was once the princess of Phoenix City, gave her life for that thing without hesitation, which shows that that thing is real. What kind of thing is so mysterious, so mysterious that even the stars and the moon don't know?

Long Yunzhou's curiosity became stronger and stronger, and then his whole body was a little nervous. He didn't dare to imagine what would he have become if he had completed this mission and Huang Ziqi had given him the thing that could change his fate?

An ordinary ordinary person, or a hero of the world? But no matter what he becomes, Long Yunzhou believes that his heart will never change. After going through so many difficulties and dangers, how could his heart change again?

The dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and a huge cloud completely blocked the last trace of the moon's brilliance. Thunder began to sound in the clouds, and a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the faces of all those walking in the darkness.

"It's going to rain, should we take shelter for a while?" Xuanyuan Yu suggested on the side.

Because he heard that the weather in Phoenix is very hot, and it will rain very violently. It doesn't hurt like an ice pick, but it hurts when the rain hits you.

"No, we only have ten days. In the past ten days, we will rush to Qianmu Ling Mountain non-stop, and then sign an agreement with the royal family of the Yu clan. If we miss this time, we may not be able to come back. The leader of Tianchen decisively rejected Xuanyuan Yu's request.

Now everyone knows that the leader of this Tianchen is called Xia Mu, and he was once from a prominent aristocratic family of the Yu clan. But in the complicated struggle within the clan, Xia Mu's family gradually declined and became a second-rate family.

It was also at that time that the young Natsuki chose Tianchen, which the children of the nobles did not want to enter, to become a killer.

Tianchen is a mysterious organization that specializes in serving the Phoenix City Lord, and they obey the orders of the Phoenix City Lord in everything, and even the order they get is to kill the king of the Yu Clan, and they will carry out the mission without hesitation.

Tianchen's fame is very great, and he also enjoys a high status within the Yu clan.

But no one wants to send their children to that terrible place, and the killers of Tianchen will undergo the most brutal training, and only one in a thousand people will survive.

The nobles are naturally reluctant to let their children die, so although Tianchen's reputation is very high, the famous characters are from poor backgrounds, basically from the lower class of the Yu clan. Someone like Xia Mu was born in an aristocracy, I'm afraid it will only take hundreds of years for him to come out like this.

Ling Yun was disgusted as soon as he heard Xia Mu speak, he was a person who was happy to take revenge, and now not only did he have to go on a mission with the killer who almost killed him, but he also had to obey the bastard's arrangement, and a wave of anger arose in his heart.

"May I ask why we have to rush to the Thousand Wood Spirit Mountain in ten days? Ling Yun deliberately found fault, he didn't really want to rest, he just looked at Xia Mu unhappy.

"For there was no sunshine for ten days, and it rained heavily. The Feathered People hate days when there is no sunshine and they like to stay in their own homes when it is cloudy. So these ten days are the time when they are the weakest and the weakest defensively. Xia Mu said it very simply and clearly, not a word is superfluous.

"Then how do you know that it will rain instead of hail or knife in these ten days? You are not a god, and who knows if what you say is true. "Ling Yun is still deliberately finding fault.

"No comment!" Natsuki replied more simply, not even looking at Ling Yun.

Anger burned in Ling Yun's chest, and he snorted coldly, "Aren't you also a feather person, why are you still with us when people hide in the house and sleep?"

Natsuki turned his head with a confident smile on the corner of his mouth: "Because, I'm Tianchen! I'm different from those ordinary feathers, we're the most powerful killers in the world." ”

Such a dragged word, such a high-profile flaunt. Whether it was Ling Yun, who thought highly of himself, or Xuanyuan Yu, who was very proud, they all sneered with disdain, and they were almost squinting at Xia Mu from the corner of their eyes, but unfortunately Xia Mu didn't look at anyone anymore.

The team continued to move forward, and the thunder in the sky grew louder and louder. The earth was so black that there were no fingers to be seen, only the occasional lightning bolt that pierced the sky illuminated the road ahead.

Like a faithful hound, the Phoenix Fire Divine Guard can lead everyone on the right path by feeling alone without even looking at it in the dark.

The path is potholed, and when lightning illuminates the ground, you can occasionally see bones strewn on the rocky road. There are even swamps with green blisters hidden in the road, and if you are not careful, you can permanently fall into those highly toxic swamps.

By now, even Ling Yun admired these Phoenix Fire Divine Guards a little. After all, they are the most elite guards in Phoenix, and they can even pass this kind of road freely, and it is really not good not to admire them.

"Stop!" Natsuki's voice rang out at the same time as a dull thunder, blinding lightning illuminating his entire body. His resolute face had an eerie coldness, and his hand standing in the air seemed to be eternally frozen there, making it impossible to shake at all.

"What's wrong?" Long Yunzhou asked strangely.

"There's a murderous aura. Natsuki replied coldly, and he took the huge bow and arrow from his back.

The bow and arrow are made from a magical tree in the Thousand Wood Spirit Mountain, and it is so hard that it can even be used as a sword.

The other five Celestial Slayers also took off their bows, staring at the darkness ahead, as if some terrible monster was approaching there.

The team fell silent for a moment, and everyone held their breath, nervously waiting for what would happen ahead.

Natsuki and the other five feathered men had already drawn their bows and arrows, and in the darkness, only the pale red light on the tips of their arrows flickered.

"It's now. Natsuki suddenly roared, and at the same time, six arrows pierced the air, lighting up the night sky with a huge sound whirl, and stabbed forward fiercely.

Oh............ Countless wolf howls rang out from the front, and a little green glow fell like stars falling from the world. Six feathered arrows illuminated the darkness, as well as countless fierce wolves that were running wild.

Boom! The feather arrow exploded the moment it touched those fierce wolves, and the terrible wolf howl began to retreat.

The six arrows that Natsuki and his men had just shot had already ignited a raging fire, and because the tip of the sword was made of Flame Crystal, the fire spread quickly after the explosion.

The carcasses of the wolves were quickly ignited under the blazing fire, they were like straws in the wind, and once they were ignited, they would not stop burning until the end of their lives.

The raging wolf knew that the person on the other side was not to be messed with, and after a few roars, he retreated in front of the fire.

Another bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a swaying figure slowly stood up from the flames.
