Chapter Fifty-Seven: Death Mountain!
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and during this period, because of the words of the city lord when they were in the fighting platform, the Zheng family honestly handed over the control of the spirit stone vein and the Yicheng industry to the Jiang family.
Therefore, this matter came to an end, and Zhou Fan also officially submitted his farewell to Jiang Lei, and Jiang Lei was still very reluctant to leave him, but he also understood that Zhou Fan was going to the top academy in the mainland to practice, and it was absolutely impossible for him to stay in the Jiang family in Tianyan City all the time.
And when they knew the news that Zhou Fan was leaving, the most reluctant were Jiang Xue and Xiaoyu, the former was because they had inexplicable feelings for Zhou Fan, and the latter just wanted Zhou Fan to stay and play with her.
At the gate of Tianyan City, Zhou Fan looked at Jiang Xue, who had a little mist in his eyes, but he couldn't hold back his tears, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Childe, take care all the way!"
Hearing Jiang Xue's soft voice, Zhou Fan nodded, and clenched his fists at Jiang Lei and the others: "Everyone, this world is very big, I don't know how long it will take for us to meet again, there will be a period later!" ”
As soon as the words fell, he no longer dragged mud and water, turned over and rode on the back of a fierce beast more than two meters high, covered in darkness, and shaped like a tiger, and patted it on the back, the latter let out a majestic tiger roar, and then turned into a black shadow and swept out.
Looking at Zhou Fan's distant figure, the tears rolling in Jiang Xue's eyes finally didn't hold back and flowed down from the corners of her eyes.
"A young man like Zhou Fan is arrogant, don't say it's a small Tianyan City, even a huge wilderness city that dominates a radius of thousands of miles can't restrain him." Looking at his daughter's sadness, Jiang Lei also sighed.
He believed in his heart that this young man, who still seemed a little immature, would rise to the top in the sky in a short time, and this kind of man, an ordinary woman, was afraid that he was not worthy of him.
……
Half a month later, a figure dressed in white riding a tiger and a leopard beast was galloping on a vast plain.
The figure was none other than Zhou Fan, since he left Tianyan City, he spent most of his time on the road except for proper rest, even at night.
After galloping on the plain for an hour, a huge mountain range blocked the way, stretching for tens of thousands of miles, the mountain revealed an ancient taste, Zhou Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, although he had not yet stepped into it, but even standing close to the edge of the mountain range, he could feel a strong aura coming from the mountain range, and there was even a strong tyrannical aura permeating the entire mountain range.
"Is this the Death Mountains?" Zhou Fan rode on the back of the tiger beast and whispered.
The Death Mountain Range is an ancient mountain range, in which most of the fierce beasts and birds of prey that survive have a trace of the blood of ancient fierce beasts, and even the atavistic beasts, the bloodline is completely transformed and extremely powerful.
This is not the most terrifying, the terrible thing is that there are still demon tribes living in the Death Mountain Range, and unlike the fierce beasts, they have turned into human forms, and only retain the things that symbolize their identity.
"After passing through this mountain range, you will be able to reach Xuantian Academy after walking for more than half a month!" Zhou Fan muttered.
Although there are many powerful fierce beasts in the Death Mountain Range, Zhou Fan has even broken through the 100,000-mile wilderness, how can he be afraid, so he patted the back of the tiger beast and officially stepped into the mountain range in front of him.
Since this is the periphery of the Death Mountain Range, I didn't see any shadows of fierce beasts, but instead met a lot of people who entered the mountain range to experience treasure hunting, they were either in groups, or in groups of three or five, and some came in alone like Zhou Fan.
They all exude a powerful aura, after all, the fierce beasts of the life-killing mountain ranges are notoriously fierce and tough, otherwise some mountain ranges would not have taken the name of life-killing, it is precisely because of the death of many people here, so those who dare to enter here to hunt for treasures do not dare to come in without some strength.
Zhou Fan's entry also attracted a lot of attention, but he quickly looked away, and no one asked or said hello, but a look of vigilance appeared in his eyes.
Zhou Fan was not surprised by this, so he directly swept past everyone and walked out towards the depths of the mountain range, and he had already begun to meet fierce beasts along the way, but they were all fierce beasts equivalent to one or two fierce beasts in the Huang Ting Realm, and there was no threat to Zhou Fan, just the aura that emitted scared them away.
However, what made Zhou Fan feel a little strange was that he had already gone a long way away, and the fierce beasts he encountered were still scattered, and the bodies of these fierce beasts were more or less injured, as if someone had surrounded and suppressed the fierce beasts here.
Just when Zhou Fan was wondering, suddenly a scolding voice came into his ears from not far away.
"Grandma's, those bastards of the Yang family are so arrogant that they dare to directly block the road into the depths......"
Then someone answered: "Don't scold, what's the use of scolding, the Yang family can be in charge of the power of the three big cities, the strength is strong, what can be done, and this is not the first time this kind of thing, we can only say that we are unlucky, we just met!" ”
"When they unblock it, I'm afraid a lot of treasures have been looted, it's really not a thing!" The man was still scolding.
"Be quiet, in case you are heard by the people of the Yang family, be careful not to go out." One of them scolded in a low voice, and then they saw Zhou Fan who was walking towards them not far away, and when they were vigilant, their eyes were staring at Zhou Fan, and the two sides quickly passed by.
"The Yang family blocked the way into the mountains?" Looking at the backs of the two fast away, Zhou Fan's brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing.
However, although he heard others say this, Zhou Fan still wanted to see what was going on, so he drove the tiger forward.
After walking for a while, Zhou Fan came to a forest, and suddenly, several figures rushed out, led by a young man with sharp eyes and a strong evil aura all over his body.
"The front is blocked, let's go back!" The young man stared at Zhou Fan, who was riding on the back of the tiger beast, and said coldly.
"How long is the lockdown going on?" Zhou Fan frowned, and as he spoke, his eyes swept around, and he found that there were still many figures flashing in the forest.
"I don't know!" The young man said lightly.
Zhou Fan saw the coldness and impatience in the young man's eyes, so in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, he turned around and left the place.
In the distance, a few miles away from the Yang family's blockade line, a clearing stopped, ready to wait here.
……
Zhou Fan was meditating and resting in the clearing, when suddenly, a huge roar came from the depths of the mountain range with a powerful coercion, the mountain shook and the rubble rolled, and the ancient trees around the clearing rustled. There is also an endless glow that soars into the sky, like a pillar of light connecting heaven and earth, which can be seen from a long distance.
The huge roar and the pillar of light alarmed everyone who came to the mountain range to hunt for treasure, and many figures in the forest flashed by, rushing to the depths of the mountain range, although the road in the depths was blocked by the Yang family, but it also depended on the situation, if the depths of the mountain range could harvest enough benefits, then these treasure hunters would not give the Yang family face.
Zhou Fan also left the tiger beast, followed with a dodge, and returned to the place where he met the young man, but at this time, the young man was long gone, and there were even many corpses lying in a pool of blood on the ground.
Zhou Fan cautiously walked towards the depths, trying his best to suppress his breath forward, and met a lot of people from the Yang family who were fighting with some loose cultivators on the way, fortunately Zhou Fan bypassed them when he was still far away, otherwise he would be discovered, and there would be some trouble, so he went all the way into the Death Mountain Range.
"Whew!"
Zhou Fan's figure landed lightly on the trunk of a giant tree, he observed the surrounding movements, and suddenly his eyes stayed on a cliff covered with moss, at the bottom of the cliff, a red spirit grass from the leaves to the rhizome was fluttering slightly, and an extremely strong fragrance drifted into Zhou Fan's nose with the wind, which made people feel stunned, and the mana in the body became a little restless.
"Red Light Grass!" Looking at the spirit grass that exuded a misty red glow, Zhou Fan's eyes flashed with joy, this is a spirit grass that can enhance mana, and it is an excellent elixir for the monks of the Huang Ting Realm to improve their realm.
Fortunately, when he was in the Jiang family in Tianyan City some time ago, he collected a lot of books about treasure elixirs, otherwise he really wouldn't have recognized them.
Zhou Fan's eyes were full of surprise, and then his eyes were looking for something around the red light grass.
Suddenly, his gaze was fixed on a crack in the cliff wall next to the Red Light Grass, and an extremely faint cold aura was hidden in it.
Immediately, the phoenix wings appeared behind Zhou Fan, fanned slightly, and suddenly turned into a streamer and rushed towards the red light grass, directly uprooting the red light grass.
"Whew!"
A black ray of light shot out of the crack in the cliff when Zhou Fan pulled out the red light grass, and the thunder in Zhou Fan's hand flickered, slashing on the black line, splitting it upside down and flying out, slamming into the cliff wall.
"It turned out to be a black snake!"
Zhou Fan looked at the black snake that was slashed to the ground, smiled faintly, and in an instant, his figure shook, and appeared in front of the black snake, and the golden sword qi in his hand slashed out, cutting it in half.
Looking at the red light grass in his hand, Zhou Fan's face was full of smiles.
"It's good luck to have such a harvest as soon as I came." Zhou Fan said with a smile, the baby is in hand, Zhou Fan doesn't want to stay longer, he also wants to see the place where the skyrocketing beam bursts out, so he turned around and was about to leave.
As soon as he was about to leave, Zhou Fan's face condensed slightly, tilted his head, and looked at the woods not far from his side, where I don't know when a few figures appeared, and at this time, those people were staring at Zhou Fan and the red light grass in his hand with greedy and murderous intent.
"Haha, I'm lucky, I actually met Chiguang Grass, it seems that today is our lucky day!" Hearing one of them coming to Zhou Fan, he said with a smile. It's as if the red light grass is his thing.
Hearing this, Zhou Fan also narrowed his eyes, and there was a cold flash in his eyes.
