Chapter 022: Confrontation
The mountains and forests are densely wooded, and there is no road to walk.
Ye Cheng and Shen Dacheng went around in a circle before they found a gap in the lower Fufeng Gorge.
After walking for almost two hours, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
The sun has set.
The temperature dropped further, and as the night breeze blew, it was chilly.
Ye Cheng is okay, his cultivation is profound, and Shen Dacheng has walked such a long mountain road, which can be described as hungry and cold.
The two fled in a hurry, Ye Cheng brought a package, and some other clothes and dry food were left on the carriage.
"Old Shen, you take this in your mouth, remember, don't swallow it."
Ye Cheng took out a medicine bottle from the package, poured out a qi and blood pill, and handed it to Shen Dacheng.
Shen Dacheng's eyes widened when he saw the pill.
He recognized it.
This is the Qi Blood Pill.
It's worth at least a tael of silver.
It is not unreasonable to be poor and rich in martial arts.
Without sufficient money, it is very difficult to practice martial arts, and even the pill of Qi and Blood Pill cannot be used.
"Gong, Gongzi, this elixir is too wasteful for small use...."
He is not even an internal martial artist, and taking the Qi and Blood Pill is indeed a bit of a waste.
"Can you keep going?"
Ye Cheng asked.
Shen Dacheng knew what Ye Cheng meant, so he silently took the pill and put it in his mouth.
As a trace of the slightly fishy smell of medicine mixed with saliva slid into his throat, Shen Dacheng felt as if a warm feeling had developed in his stomach, gradually spreading throughout his body.
Originally, he was a little exhausted, and his hands and feet were cold.
But now my whole body is warm all at once.
Keep moving.
Shen Dacheng's physical strength recovered a little, and his actions were much faster.
The two of them burrowed around in the woods, occasionally scaring wild animals.
"It seems that I am afraid I will not be able to get out before dark."
Ye Cheng looked up at the sky.
Once it gets dark, you can't continue walking.
Because there is no way to discern the direction, if you deviate slightly, you may miss Xiangshui Town.
You'll have to find a safe cave and spend the night.
In this deep mountain and old forest, there are many fierce beasts.
He could now hear the inexplicable roar of the beast in the distance.
It's just that he is now a master of art and bold, and his cultivation is not low, otherwise he would really tremble if he is replaced by an ordinary person, for fear that if he encounters a fierce beast, it will be dangerous.
Ye Cheng was about to speak, when suddenly, his ears moved, his face changed slightly, and he immediately stopped.
Shen Dacheng saw Ye Cheng stop and was about to ask, but found that Ye Cheng's face was solemn, and he shook his head at him, so he didn't say anything immediately, just looked in the direction that Ye Cheng was looking at.
But they saw and heard nothing.
However, he knew that Ye Cheng was a martial artist with advanced cultivation, so he must have discovered something.
With his keen hearing, Ye Cheng vaguely heard something coming from behind.
Although the voice suddenly disappeared behind him, he sensed that something was wrong.
"Could it be that someone from the Yinshan faction has caught up?"
Ye Cheng directly untied the package tied around his waist and threw it to Shen Dacheng, holding the sword in his hand tightly, and his other hand was also ready to grab the hilt of the sword at any time and pull out the long sword.
As the minutes ticked by, there was finally the sound of slight footsteps.
There was a jolt of branches, and then a black-robed figure walked out of it.
It was already evening, the sun was setting, and the trees were thick, making the light in the woods quite dim.
But Ye Cheng had strong eyesight, and he recognized the identity of this black-robed figure at a glance.
What made him breathe a sigh of relief was that the Yinshan faction seemed to be the only one in the black robe who was chasing after him.
There were no other lurkers around.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to hide his keen sensibility.
He was very puzzled, when he ran out, the cultivation strength he showed was at most the acquired cultivation of the middle and third grades, who would have expected that this black-robed old man would come to chase and kill him in person.
It can be seen that this Yinshan Party attaches great importance to the innate exercises, and will never allow the news to leak out.
"I wonder if this person is carrying that piece of animal skin paper that records the innate exercises?"
Ye Cheng's heart suddenly moved.
There was a faint expectation in his heart.
In the final analysis, he still couldn't let go of his thoughts about the innate exercises after all.
The black-robed old man's cold gaze looked at Shen Dacheng first.
Because Ye Cheng looks like a white-faced boy, harmless to humans and animals, and doesn't look like he has advanced cultivation.
Although Shen Dacheng is dressed ordinarily and has a simple face, he is burly and has good bones.
Stared at by the black-robed old man, Shen Dacheng trembled, his face pale.
If it weren't for the lack of strength on his two legs, Shen Dacheng would probably have to run away.
The black-robed old man was a little disappointed and took his gaze away from Shen Dacheng, fell on Ye Cheng, and re-examined it.
If the acquired martial artist who killed his own disciple was not that big man, there would only be this white-faced scholar.
Such a young mid-triple acquired martial artist?
He was a little skeptical.
After all, Ye Cheng is too young.
Unless it was a genius martial artist among those top martial arts forces who had been fully cultivated, it would be almost impossible to have a mid-triple acquired cultivation at such a young age.
But such a genius martial artist must have a protector by his side.
The black-robed old man didn't plan to talk nonsense at all.
As soon as his body moved, he shot out, and the sword in his hand was pulled out, turning into a little bit of coldness, enveloping Ye Cheng and Shen Dacheng beside him.
The fierce sword aura bloomed, tearing through the air and crushing the branches and leaves that were an eyesore.
Even though the two people in front of him didn't seem to be like the middle and triple acquired martial artists, the black-robed old man still used real killing moves.
"Stand back."
Ye Cheng let out a low snort, pulled out his sword suddenly, stepped on the shadow step under his feet, and responded with the ghost shadow sword technique.
Ghost shadow swordsmanship, pay attention to a fast, treacherous, tricky.
In an instant, two long swords that shimmered with cold light quickly intertwined and collided.
The sharp sword qi entangled, cut, and concussed, and with the qi energy permeating, the surrounding branches and leaves, and even the trees shattered and collapsed.
And after Shen Dacheng also got Ye Cheng's reminder, he took the package and rolled backwards, narrowly avoiding the impact of the qi.
Wait until he is far away, and then look at the place where he came.
Except for the two figures flickering rapidly, the sword aura was permeated, and it was just broken and fallen trees.
He had never seen such a scene, it was simply astonishing.
Whoa...
The two swords intertwined again, and the terrifying true qi stirred.
Burst!
Ye Cheng was careless, and was grazed by a sword qi on his arm, and blood flowed immediately.
This was the first time he had been wounded in battle.
It hurts.
One arm felt numb.
This is caused by the true qi characteristics of the black-robed old man.
Peal pedal, pedal, pedal.
Ye Cheng suddenly retreated, soaring into the air and landing on a bare branch.
With a flash of golden light in his mind, the wound that was still bleeding had completely healed.
It's just that there are still blood stains on the tears of the clothes, and outsiders can't see the reality at all.
In the eyes of the black-robed old man, Ye Cheng was already injured.
"At a young age, you are already a cultivator of the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow, but unfortunately your combat experience is too poor, no matter who you are or what your identity is, if you kill someone from my Yinshan faction, you don't want to get out alive."
The black-robed old man said Sen Ran.
He originally thought that the white-faced scholar was at most a middle-three acquired cultivator, but after a fight just now, he found that Ye Cheng's cultivation had already been on par with him.
What is missing is combat experience.
Just now, he grabbed a flaw in Ye Cheng's swordsmanship, and abolished Ye Cheng's arm with one sword.
The sword qi entered the body, and this arm was useless for a short time.
However, such a young Acquired Great Perfection martial artist must have a not simple background.
Although I don't know what kind of force it is, why there is no innate level protector around him, he must not let this person go out alive, otherwise, the Yinshan Sect will be completely finished.
He is well aware of the horror of offending the innate forces.
Any innate martial artist can kill his Yinshan faction without leaving a chicken.
In this cruel world.
There is no room for mercy or hesitation.
His Yinshan faction can use the innate exercises to destroy the Yang family, and even slaughter hundreds of innocent people and business travelers.
The forces behind this young man will also destroy his Yinshan faction without hesitation in order to take revenge.
