Chapter Sixty-Nine: Immovable as a Mountain
"What? You're going to take this guy as an apprentice? Ye Xiuyuan looked at Zhou Wu in surprise.
Zhou Wu smiled and nodded.
"But! This guy's spiritual root quality is lower than mine, are you sure you want to accept him as a disciple? Ye Xiuyuan's eyes widened.
Zhou Wu nodded seriously and said, "I believe that he is a good jade, as long as he is patient and carefully carved, he will definitely shine." ”
Ye Xiuyuan sighed and said: "This kid really doesn't know what luck he took, he actually met you guy, it seems that this kid is blessed, chance, this is chance." ”
Facing the earth lizard, Zhou Yan's face was extremely solemn, solemn, and fearful, but thinking of what Zhou Wu said, Zhou Yan mustered up his courage and crashed into the earth lizard.
"Bump!" Losing the support of true qi, it was obvious that Zhou Yan was not the opponent of the earth lizard at all, and was directly knocked out by the earth lizard and smashed heavily on a big tree.
Wow, blood spit out, Zhou Yan's face was solemn, and he struggled for a long time before he stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the soil lizard that rushed up at this time, his eyes had been replaced by fear.
Zhou Wu shook his head helplessly, looking at Zhou Yan's unsuccessful appearance, he had to jump down from the tree, wave his fist, and meet him.
"Bump!" The earth lizard hit Zhou Wu's fist, as if it had hit a steel plate, and was shocked out, while Zhou Wu stood in place, not moving.
"Immovable as a mountain! This trick is very strong! Ye Xiuyuan stood on the tree and looked at Zhou Wu in amazement.
Stepping into the Jindan realm, Zhou Wu also began to learn some of the skills in the Fu Long Jue, which is different from the gorgeous spells, and the skills of the Fu Long Jue pay more attention to their own power.
This move is as immovable as a mountain, combined with its own qi and blood, integrated into itself, and its defense is extremely strong, and ordinary Jindan realm monks can't break it at all.
Of course, not moving like a mountain is not a move of Fu Longjue, but a skill that Zhou Wu comprehended when he fought against Kong Shan.
"I'm sorry Brother Zhou, I didn't do it." Zhou Yan said inferiorly.
Zhou Wu didn't speak, but looked at the earth lizard, swooped, jumped up, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the top of the earth lizard, and hit it head-on.
"Boom!" With this punch, the soil lizard was bombarded and fell to the ground, the ground collapsed, the blood in the brain was gushing, and he was dizzy, and with only two punches, the soil lizard was beaten to the ground by Zhou Wu.
"Xiao Yan, you still have a lot to learn, but before you learn, you have to build up self-confidence and erase your inferiority." Ye Xiuyuan was like an elder reprimanding a junior, standing beside Zhou Yan and saying.
"Well, I know, but I really can't beat it." Zhou Yan said in a low voice.
Zhou Wu glanced at Zhou Yan and said to Ye Xiuyuan: "Old Ye, you take them to leave first, and I will come to you after I take care of it." ”
Ye Xiuyuan knew Zhou Wu's intentions and left with Zhou Yan.
Zhou Wu hurriedly took out the iron box and put the earth lizard into the iron box.
The sky is getting dark, and everyone is still going deep, at this time they have gone deep for a hundred miles, and there are second-order and third-order demon beasts everywhere around, and the four of them are extremely cautious, but Zhou Yan is a little unrelenting along the way, and his inferiority complex is becoming more and more obvious, following a few people, like a child who has made a mistake.
And Zhou Wu's attitude towards Zhou Yan has also become a little indifferent, Zhou Wu is deliberately like this, in order to activate Zhou Yan's self-confidence.
"Brother Zhou, I have something to say." Zhou Yan plucked up his courage and rushed in front of Zhou Wu.
"Say." Zhou Wu said lightly.
Zhou Yan hurriedly summoned out the boxing gloves, held them in his hands, and said, "This boxing gloves will be returned to you." ”
Zhou Wu smiled, bypassed Zhou Yan, and walked out, Zhou Yan stood stupidly in place, not knowing what to do.
"Xiao Yan, this fist glove is already your natal magic weapon, if you forcibly dissolve the relationship, it will affect the origin, and at least the cultivation will be regressive, and at the worst it will leave a serious internal wound that cannot be cured." Ye Xiuyuan said.
Frightened, Zhou Yan's face turned blue and white.
Yang Zilan hurriedly said: "Xiao Yan, the fist gloves are your natal magic weapon, put it away quickly, the reason why the sect master is unhappy is because you are too inferior, be confident, I believe in the sect master's vision, he intends to accept you as an apprentice, he is testing you." ”
When Zhou Yan heard this, he was stunned on the spot, and said tremblingly: "Brother Zhou, you want to accept me as an apprentice!" ”
"Brother Zhou, wait for me." Zhou Yan hurriedly chased after him, knowing Zhou Wu's thoughts, Zhou Yan was also relieved, but his inferiority complex still couldn't be erased.
In a blink of an eye, a month has passed, and the four of them have been jumping deep into the forest for about 100 miles, during which they have also fought with more than a dozen second-order and third-order demon beasts, and even Ye Xiuyuan and Yang Zilan have also shown their skills, which makes Zhou Yan feel even more stupid, but he still refuses to give up, but whenever he encounters demon beasts, he rushes to be the first, but the result is the same, one or two rounds, and he is defeated.
However, Zhou Yan did not gain nothing, and after a month, Zhou Yan also accumulated some experience in combat.
The four of them came to a lake, and as far as the eye could see, it was a wide lake with a diameter of 100 miles, the lake was calm, and there were many demon beasts coming to drink water by the lake.
"This should be Bishui Lake, after this lake, through a swamp, it is the Muzhou Ladder." Ye Xiuyuan said.
Zhou Wu looked at the calm lake and said, "This lake is too calm, so strong sense of crisis. ”
Ye Xiuyuan nodded and said: "Legend has it that there are many water-based demon beasts living in this clear water lake, among them, there is a one-eyed demon beast, which is cultivated to the peak of the sixth order, and is incomparably strong, even if the land demon beast comes to drink, it is also drunk and quickly leaves." ”
"Sixth-order peak demon beast, isn't this clear water lake a dangerous place?" Yang Zilan said.
"That's right, the one-eyed demon beast relied on this blue water lake, even if it met a strong man who returned to the virtual realm, it also had the power to fight, there was once a strong man who returned to the virtual realm with more than ten distractions to encircle and suppress the one-eyed demon beast, and in this blue water lake for three days and three nights, in the end, he fought to the death and eight cripples, and only hit the one-eyed demon beast hard, and the reason why the demon beast was called a one-eyed demon beast was also because in that battle, he was blinded by the strong man who returned to the virtual realm, and since that time, no monk dares to provoke this one-eyed demon beast."
Zhou Wu looked at the lake and said: "There are a lot of water-based demon beasts in this lake, the lake is cold, there should be ice-based demon beasts, Zilan, what do you think?" ”
When Yang Zilan heard this, he immediately understood what Zhou Wu meant, and hurriedly said, "Zilan is willing to give it a try." ”
"Okay, then we'll live in this blue water lake, and if we encounter an ice-based demon beast, I'll catch it for you as a mount." Zhou Wu said in a deep voice.
When Ye Xiuyuan heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "This is the territory of the one-eyed demon beast, catching the demon beast on its territory is killing yourself!" ”
"Old Ye, if you're afraid, I can put you in an iron box." Zhou Wu said.
Ye Xiuyuan said: "I'm afraid? I'm afraid of a fart, the old man is also a Jindan realm cultivator, I can't beat it, can't I run away? ”
The blue water lake at night is surprisingly calm, terrifyingly quiet, and so quiet that it makes people panic, but whenever there is a little wind and grass, Ye Xiuyuan and Zhou Yan will be frightened.
Only Zhou Wu and Yang Zilan sat by the lake all day and all night, and they actually meditated and cultivated.
"These two guys, in such a dangerous place, actually have the heart to cultivate." Ye Xiuyuan said.
"Senior Ye, you said, Brother Zhou, will he really take me as an apprentice?" Zhou Yan said dryly.
When Ye Xiuyuan heard this, he slapped Zhou Yan on the head, and Zhou Yan squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and wailed.
"Stupid, of course the sect master wants to take you as an apprentice, but if you can't erase your inferiority, he won't accept you, so think about it yourself, whether you want to be inferior for the rest of your life, or miss the great opportunity in this life."
Zhou Yan was stunned on the spot, looking at Zhou Wu's back, his eyes gradually showed a look of determination.
At this moment, Zhou Wu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the lake, only to see a duck playing in the water on the lake, which was put by Zhou Wu in order to attract the demon beasts in the lake.
Of course, Zhou Wu left an ice origin imprint on the duck, and if there were ice demon beasts in the lake, they would definitely be attracted by this ice origin.
"There is movement, it seems that there are really ice-type demon beasts in this lake, this breath should be the early stage of the third order, just right for you, but I don't know what kind of demon beast this is." Zhou Wu said in a deep voice.
"Ice monsters are already rare, and it is extremely difficult to meet a demon beast that has always cultivated to be comparable to me, no matter what kind of demon beast it is, I am willing to become a partner with it." Yang Zilan said excitedly.
Gradually, the demon beast floated, the breath became more and more obvious, and the duck also felt the crisis, and with a few quacks, it flew to Zhou Wu's side.
"Your mission is complete, go back." Zhou Wu put the duck away, and in the next second, he saw blisters on the surface of the lake, and an extremely ugly head was exposed.
It was an uneven head, not so much a bumpy head, but a mouth, similar to a duck's beak, a pair of eyes, just to the left and right of the mouth, and the head was snow-white, as crystal clear as ice crystals.
"Zilan! Do it! ”
Zhou Wu shouted, threw out the Holy Dragon Spear, and shot towards the lake, poof, the Holy Dragon Spear drilled into the lake, and in the next second, the big-mouthed demon beast was forced out of the water by the Holy Dragon Spear.
Only then did everyone see clearly that it was a demon beast with a whole body of blood, about two meters tall, and flat limbs, similar to a penguin, and bulging.
"Damn! Isn't this the platypus of our world? Zhou Wu was dumbfounded, except for his own color, he looked almost exactly the same as a platypus.
Ye Xiuyuan was stunned, and said in shock: "This demon beast, it seems, it seems to be a frost mother beast with the bloodline of the Ice Emperor in ancient times. ”
