Three years and three years, counting the time delayed in the Bingyi Country before, it was already very close to the ten-year appointment with Yan Cang Zhenren.

To go from Yasukuni to Huoluo, it is also necessary to span a vast area of more than 100,000 li, and there are some dangerous places that are not easy to pass.

Therefore, Zhou Chun didn't even bother to wait for Zhou Zhiying to open up the Purple Mansion, so he embarked on the road of traveling again.

The journey to the country of Huoluo is far away, and the time required is unknown.

Zhou Chun also made full preparations before leaving.

He didn't have too many spirit coins with him, but he did bring a lot of special spiritual objects, especially some special spiritual objects from Long Yuanze and Bingyi Kingdom.

In this way, if he really encounters something over there that he wants to buy and exchange, these things should be easy to get out of his hands and exchange them for spirit coins or spiritual objects.

In addition, considering that the Huoluo country is said to be dominated by desert and desert plateau terrain, Zhou Chun did not bring Mu Mei Musang this time, so he stayed by Zhou Zhiying's side for personal protection.

Even Lei Jiao was in vain, allowing him to recuperate at the Sujia Mountain Gate with peace of mind.

Therefore, the only spiritual pets that he really took by his side were the Golden-winged Tiger and the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix.

This is also the reason why Zhou Chun dared to do this after he developed the true power of the spirit treasure of the [Moon Toad Orb].

Otherwise, with his caution, he would definitely not give up carrying the hole card of Lei Jiao in vain.

I saw Zhou Chun traveling all the way west, and within a few months, he traveled to a place called Xia Kingdom.

This Xia country is still separated by many countries from the Fire Luo Country, but it can be said that it is the only way to quickly get to the Fire Luo Country.

From the Xia Kingdom to the west, through a narrow canyon and highlands, you can reach the extreme west where the Fire Luo Kingdom is located.

If you don't choose to cross this canyon and highland, you have to go north along this canyon and highlands that stretches for tens of thousands of miles, detour nearly 100,000 miles, and pass through several countries to get back on track, one of which is to pass through some dangerous places.

However, since this canyon and highland is so important for the exchange between the two places, it is naturally not a good place to have exchanges that can separate the two regions.

The environment of this place itself is very complex and harsh, and there are many places in the canyon where evil qi breeds, and the monks passing through it are very likely to go mad and lose their minds if they do not pay attention to the evil qi.

These evil qi will also overflow into the air, merging with the gangfeng, even if it flies from high altitude, it is easy to be unconsciously stained with that evil qi.

At the same time, there are also some vicious beasts and poisonous insects inhabited in the canyon heights, these vicious beasts and poisonous insects can't help but not be harmed by the evil qi, but instead integrate the evil qi into their own mana and magical powers, once they are injured by it, they will be stained with the evil qi.

In addition, there are also some heinous people and bandit cultivators who hide in this area, often using their familiarity with the environment to rob and kill monks who try to cross this area.

Before that, Zhou Chun had only heard of the name of this canyon highland, and he didn't know much about it.

After he really entered the Xia Kingdom and learned more about the relevant information, he realized that he was afraid that he had only underestimated this place that the monks of the Xia Kingdom called the "Evil Spirit Canyon".

In the hearts of the Xia Kingdom monks, the Evil Spirit Canyon is definitely the most dangerous place in the country, and there is no one.

Many examples in the past have proved that even if a Jindan monk is touched by the evil aura inside, he will be greatly affected, or even fall directly!

It is said that even if it is a real person in the infancy stage, once it is contaminated with too much evil qi, it is also inevitably affected by it.

Therefore, in many cases, if the monks of the Xia Kingdom wanted to go to the extreme west, they would rather take a detour of 100,000 miles than cross the Evil Spirit Canyon, which may be only 1,000 miles away in a straight line!

Similarly, the monks located on the opposite side of the Evil Spirit Canyon were also reluctant to cross this canyon to come to the Xia Kingdom.

In this case, Zhou Chun just wanted to buy the map and information in the Evil Spirit Canyon, and it was difficult to find the way, and he didn't know who really had it.

"Evil spirit, is this thing really as mysterious as the legend?"

On a bare stone peak, Zhou Chun looked at the undulating mountains in front of him, the Evil Spirit Canyon composed of peaks, cliffs, canyons, and highlands, and his eyes also showed a touch of curiosity.

He had thought that he had the [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] in his hand that could purify even turbid qi, and it should be easy to pass through this area.

But at this time, after hearing too many terrifying rumors about the evil aura among the local monks of the Xia Kingdom, he couldn't help but have some doubts.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Chun decided to give it a try first.

According to the rumors I heard, even if a Jindan stage monk could not completely resist the evil aura, he would not die like a middle and low-level monk.

If [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] really can't get rid of the evil spirit, Zhou Chun can only take a detour.

If he could, he could have gone according to the plan.

After making a decision like this, Zhou Chun immediately flew into the evil spirit canyon in front of him without hesitation, and took the initiative to find the so-called evil qi.

After a short time, Zhou Chun made a discovery in a withered leaf forest.

This dead-leaved forest is located in a canyon with a grayish-white broad-leaved trunk, somewhat resembling birch.

At this time, a gray-white mist was in the woods, and the mist was still spreading and flowing around with the mountain wind.

There is a saying in the Xia Kingdom Cultivation Immortal Realm about the evil aura of the Evil Spirit Canyon, and when you see it, it is actually already by your side!

This means that the evil qi only appears in a grayish-white mist state when the concentration is extremely high, and in the thin case, they are actually colorless and difficult to see.

However, Zhou Chun still pinched the trick and cast a spell, and a vicious aura fell on his body.

Sure enough, when the evil aura of materialization touched his body, he suddenly felt that his consciousness sank, and he seemed to hear some kind of whispering in his ears, and a sense of dryness grew in his heart, and there was nowhere to vent and release.

Fortunately, his consciousness was still generally awake, and he quickly withdrew from this area first, and then took the [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] prepared in advance.

With the cool spiritual water entering his abdomen, the dryness in Zhou Chun's body quickly dissipated, and even his consciousness was cleared, and he instantly regained his clarity.

"It's good, it's worthy of [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water], and it really didn't disappoint me!"

Zhou Chun applauded again and again, and was very satisfied with the results of this test.

But then he seemed to think of something again, and he couldn't help but groan.

It turned out that he suddenly thought of one point, that is, the quantity of [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water].

The amount of [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] stored in the [Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Jar] now is not much, even if he uses two percent at a time, he can only use it five times.

If you want to make a jar of [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] later, you will have to wait until after 7749 days.

And even the narrowest section of this Evil Spirit Canyon is more than a thousand miles wide, and it cannot be passed in a short time.

What's more, as far as Zhou Chun knew, that area was actually the most dangerous, and there were many powerful beasts and poisonous insects living in it, and there were many powerful existences with fourth-order combat power.

In this way, if he thought that with the [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] in his body, he would be able to forcibly break into the Evil Spirit Canyon, but he was afraid that he might suffer a lot.

"Looks like we'll have to find a map!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Chun quickly turned around and left the canyon and returned to the Xia Kingdom.

Although the number of immortal cultivators who dare to cross the Evil Spirit Canyon is very small, and there are not many successful examples, there are always some lucky ones who have succeeded.

Zhou Chun was willing to spend money, and he was a Jindan monk himself, so he quickly found such a lucky person.

This person is now a white-haired old man with half a foot in the ground, and his cultivation is in the late stage of the Purple Mansion, and it is said that when he crossed the Evil Spirit Canyon, he was still in the middle of the Purple Mansion.

"The danger of the Evil Spirit Canyon, the seniors must also know that the map in the hands of the juniors, saying that it is a map, is actually only a record of the area that the juniors have been lucky enough to pass through."

"And after so many years, the situation in those regions must have changed, if you encounter any abnormal situation in the senior, the junior is not responsible!"

In a teahouse in Fangshi, after Zhou Chun made an appointment with the lucky person he had discovered, as soon as the other party heard his intentions, he immediately gave him the vaccination first, and he didn't want to take any responsibility.

But this person was already the most suitable person that Zhou Chun could find in a short period of time, and he could only look at him calmly and said: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, as long as the map in your hand is indeed basically fine, even if there is any danger, this seat will not be angry with you because of this." ”

"With your seniors, the juniors will be relieved."

The old man's face was relieved, and he took out a map and handed it to Zhou Chun.

Judging by his skillful appearance, this kind of thing should have been done more than once or twice.

Zhou Chun was not surprised by this.

After all, although the Evil Spirit Canyon is dangerous, being able to cross through it can save a lot of time and save many other dangers.

Naturally, there are many monks and forces on the Xia Kingdom's side who will be interested in this.

A lucky person like the old man in front of him who has successfully crossed the Evil Spirit Canyon will definitely become a sought-after item with the map in his hand.

After studying the map, he paid a handsome sum.

It didn't take long for Zhou Chun to leave Fang City with the map.

Above a canyon as wide as a thousand feet, countless fist-sized black monster insects gathered into a swarm, covering the sky and the sun, and swept towards a monk in silver-white robes in the air.

The individual strength of these black monster insects is only equivalent to that of a cultivator in the early stage of qi cultivation, but there are too many of them, and there are no less than hundreds of thousands of them!

At the same time, a kind of black acid from their mouths is infused with the unique evil aura in the Evil Spirit Canyon, and even if it is burned into smoke, it can still damage the target.

The silver-robed monk was none other than Zhou Chun, and he was already in the depths of the Evil Spirit Canyon at the moment.

After he got the map, he quickly followed it into the canyon.

The road ahead was relatively smooth, except for the inevitable contamination of some evil aura permeating the void, there was no threat worth mentioning.

Until he flew over this canyon, he was suddenly stopped by these black monsters.

At this moment, he made a little move, and after discovering the difficulty of these black strange insects, even if he didn't want to entangle with them, he directly pinched the trick and cast a spell, and cast the "Golden Escape Technique" to break through to the front.

I saw a flash of golden light, and in an instant, it was more than fifty miles away, shaking off the black monster insect swarm.

But he had just come out of trouble, and before he had time to be happy about it, his face soon changed, and his eyes looked gloomily at a certain mountain peak not far away.

I saw that a group of dark golden bat demon beasts suddenly flew out of the peak, and the breath turned out to be second-order and third-order, and the speed of flight was very fast, comparable to that of a Jindan stage monk!

"Damn, there's no record of either on that old thing's map! I'm not going to be cheated by him! ”

Zhou Chun scolded secretly in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't continue to escape.

He was still following the map, at least the terrain along the way was roughly similar to the map.

If you rush to escape at this point and deviate from the map's route, it's hard to say if you'll encounter an even more dangerous enemy than you are now.

Immediately, Zhou Chun no longer hesitated, and directly patted the spirit beast bag on his waist and released the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix.

Under normal circumstances, as soon as a fourth-order demon beast like the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix came out, some second-order and third-order bat demon beasts would definitely flee from the wind.

However, those dark golden bat demon beasts seemed to be completely unaffected by the aura emanating from the Inferno Fire Phoenix, and after entering the attack range, they launched an ultrasonic attack supernatural power, and spit out black gas arrows from their mouths to shoot at Zhou Chun and the Inferno Fire Phoenix.

This situation also made the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix very angry, and when it was even a clear sound, there were feather-shaped flame arrows shooting towards those dark golden bat demon beasts with a flap of its wings.

Boom Boom!

Just like when a rocket hits its target, those dark golden bat monsters will immediately explode into flames and fireworks in mid-air once they are hit by flaming arrows.

However, only the second-order bat monsters will be directly shattered, and the third-order bat monsters are often injured but not killed, showing a strong defense and vitality that is also far superior to the same level monsters!

Moreover, although the number of these bat demon beasts is not as large as those black monster insects, there are as many as thousands, and the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix can destroy at most one of them in a round of attacks.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only take action in person, sacrificing the natal magic weapon [Wanhua Golden Ding], urging a series of golden light arrows to shoot at those bat demon beasts.

Their master and servant joined forces, and soon destroyed half of the bat demon beasts.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

I saw that one of the third-order high-grade bat demon beasts suddenly let out a roar, and a huge black qi gushed out from its body, turning into small black bats and flying towards those dead or badly injured bat demon beasts.

In the blink of an eye, those corpses and bats and demon beasts quickly dried up, losing their essence and life.

Then one by one, the little black bats flew back into the body of the third-order high-grade bat demon beast, and forcibly promoted it to become a fourth-order demon beast!

As soon as this demon entered the fourth order, his speed immediately increased greatly, not only easily dodging the attack of the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix, but also unleashing a sound attack magic power that Zhou Chun had to face squarely.

And I don't know if it was affected by the evil qi, under the attack of the sound attack of the fourth-order bat demon beast, Zhou Chun's inner irritability and confusion were obviously stronger.

However, the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix seems to be less affected by the evil aura, probably because of the [Glass Pure Fire] body.

"Damn, it's going to have to be a quick one!"

Zhou Chun shook his head, silently used the secret technique of "Heart Lotus Rectification" to stay awake, and immediately stopped trying to show his true strength.

But as soon as he urged the natal magic weapon [Wanhua Golden Ding], several golden sword rainbows shot towards the fourth-order bat demon beast.

By the time the fourth-order bat demon beast relied on its powerful flying speed to dodge the golden sword rainbow attack, a golden Changge had already firmly locked it, and there was no way to avoid it!

When it spread its wings and released a black qi shield to take the blow, it saw that a torrent of black-red flames had already poured down on its head, drowning it.

Squeak –

With a sharp hissing sound, the tattered and charred fourth-order bat demon beast staggered out of the flames, trying to use a retreat to escape.

Suddenly, a golden divine thunderbolt slammed down, blasting its head open on the spot!

After using the [Gengjin Splitting Sky Thunder] to bombard and kill the fourth-order bat demon beasts in this way, Zhou Chun and the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix joined forces to attack, and soon killed all the second-order and third-order bat demon beasts who were not afraid of death.

But after killing this group of bat demon beasts, Zhou Chun didn't have the slightest joy.

Because he suddenly found that these bat demon beasts did not leave any demon pills after they died, and the breath on their bodies also dropped after death.

The point is that the corpse also exudes an ominous aura, which makes him feel very bad.

He asked the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix.

Sure enough, even this spirit pet, who used to like to eat all kinds of poisonous insects, snakes and ants, didn't want to eat the corpses of bats and demon beasts at all, and rejected and disgusted them from the bottom of his heart.

As a result, these demon beasts that he had worked so hard to kill could not get any beneficial gains.

"What a bad luck!"

Zhou Chun scolded with an ugly face, and immediately attracted some [Pure Yuan Spiritual Water] to evolve the evil qi contaminated for himself, and then put away the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix and continued to fly forward.

But what Zhou Chun didn't notice was that not long after they left, the bat corpses on the ground turned into a cloud of black gas and disappeared into the ground.

At the same time, a strange black bird that had witnessed all this suddenly fluttered up from the top of a mountain rock and flew towards an unknown place.

On the other side, after Zhou Chun slashed the bat demon beast group, it didn't take long for him to encounter a group of black strange birds like crows, which were able to swallow a kind of black flame, and the bird king among them actually had a fourth-order cultivation!

This made him immediately know that there must be something wrong with the map in his hand!

It doesn't necessarily mean that the map is completely fake, but the old man certainly doesn't have the ability to traverse this area.

It's just that even if you know this, it's not appropriate to turn around and go back at this time.

Zhou Chun can only remember this hatred first, and shake off his spirit to face the crows.

Just like before, the black monster bird was not afraid of the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix at all, and when it came up, it launched a fierce attack on their master and servant.

After Zhou Chunfei tried his best to kill the crows, he couldn't harvest even a single demon pill.

He also specially saved the life of the fourth-order monster bird to see if it would explode by the demon pill, but it didn't.

And this time, for some reason, Zhou Chun deliberately stayed at the scene for a while longer, and then saw the scene where the corpses of those strange birds turned into black gas and disappeared.

After seeing this scene, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he finally understood why these demon beasts didn't have a demon pill!

"Qi gives birth to all things, isn't this a characteristic of the legendary refining period? Could it be that there are seventh-order monsters under this evil spirit canyon? ”

Zhou Chun looked at the canyon ground below with an ugly face, and his heart was shocked.

Regarding the description of "qi gives birth to all things", he also saw it in an ancient book, saying that it is a cultivator in the refining period above the realm of transforming gods, and a trace of mana can transform into flesh and blood living things, and even these living things can also have spiritual wisdom!

But when they die, they return to their original qi.

This kind of creation method is no different from the rumored immortals, so the cultivators of the refining period are also known as "half-immortals".

It's just that the refining period is not the power that this realm can accommodate at all, and it stands to reason that the highest power in this realm can also accommodate the god realm!

"Evil spirit, evil spirit, could this name have another meaning?"

Zhou Chun's eyes moved slightly, and he remembered the name of the evil spirit canyon under his feet, and seemed to understand something.

If it was really as he thought, this place was really not a good place, no wonder the big powers of the Xia Kingdom would rather take a long detour to trade with the countries of the extreme west such as the Fire Luo Country, rather than contribute to open up a safe passage here.

I'm afraid that I don't want to, but I can't!!

"It seems that I can only go once, and the next time I return, I definitely can't venture here again!"

Zhou Chun pursed his lips, suppressed the horror in his heart, and continued to absorb the spiritual power in the spirit crystal to recover the mana, while continuing to rush forward.

Soon after, he encountered many black poisonous bees, and he had no choice but to continue to destroy these incarnate monsters.

But just when he was destroying these black poisonous bees, Zhou Chun's consciousness suddenly moved, and he felt like he was being spied on.

With his powerful divine consciousness now, once this feeling is born, it is basically eight or nine without leaving ten.

And after understanding what the details of those monsters in this evil spirit canyon are, Zhou Chun also probably had a guess about the identity and origin of this secret peeper.

I saw a cold light flash in his eyes, and immediately let the Flame Hell Fire Phoenix shoot with all his strength, and burned all those black poisonous bees into black gas with [Glass Pure Fire] to dissipate.

Then he looked calmly in a certain direction behind him and said, "Since a few Daoists have already come, why hide and dare not show up!" ”

"Hey, he found out, there's something about this person!"

On a certain mountain peak, a black-robed man couldn't help but sigh lightly, putting away the blue light in his eyes.

Just now, it was he who peeked at Zhou Chun from afar through his spiritual powers.

I don't want to be discovered by Zhou Chun even if I peep hundreds of miles away.

"Boss, but the idea? Can't we get on it yet? ”

Behind the black-robed man, a strong man with an extraordinarily strong figure like an iron tower saw his solemn expression and couldn't help but ask in a muffled voice.

"Why not? He fought several battles along the way, even the iron man should be tired at this time, we finally waited for this fat sheep to enter the canyon, how could we easily let it slip away! ”

The black-robed man's face was full of anger, and he said in a calm tone.

Then he no longer hid, and directly flew out of the hiding place with the strong man of the iron tower, and flew straight towards where Zhou Chun was.

The cultivation of these two people also happens to be in the middle stage of a golden pill, an early stage of a golden pill!
