Chapter 205: Get the first step
Northwest of Huanglong Immortal City.
A faint mist shrouded the endless gray mountains.
A second-order spirit boat flew through the sky and slowly slowed down on the periphery of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
On the flying boat, a man and a woman stood side by side, dressed in black robes and black dresses, like a middle-aged couple in the foundation building period.
"Lu Daoyou, the risk of this trip may be no less than going to the front line, do you have any arrangements for the future?"
Shi Manrong, who was dressed in a black dress, was disguised and disguised, and his appearance and posture were no longer conspicuous.
"Lu has no relatives and no queens, so there is no need to arrange."
Lu Changan said lightly.
"Why, I participated in Zheng Daoyou's funeral not long ago, and the teacher fairy touched the scene, what did you not deal with?"
A few days ago, Lu Changan and the others set off from Wuqi Mountain to attend Zheng Centipede's funeral.
Shi Fairy did not have a deep friendship with Zheng Centipede, so he mainly borrowed the gap in this to secretly go to the ancient ruins of the Black Mist Mountains.
At the funeral, the two of them appeared in the later stage of the foundation building, even if it was just a simple appearance, which gave the Zheng family enough face and shocked the hostile forces.
In the Zheng family's land, the two learned a detail:
Zheng centipede died on the battlefield, and there was no one to collect the body, and there were no bones.
The danger of the ancient ruins is no less than the battlefield, once it encounters an accident, I am afraid that it will die without a place to be buried, and it will end up like a Zheng centipede.
"The concubine and Lu Daoyou are all the way, so naturally there is nothing to worry about."
Shi Manrong smiled lightly and proposed:
"We might as well agree that if one of them suffers misfortune, the other will help collect the body for burial and inherit his inheritance without affecting his own safety."
Lu Changan agreed to this agreement, and comforted:
"Lu believes that with the formation attainments of the master fairy, he is well prepared, as long as he restrains his greed, he can retreat with his whole body."
……
Entering the Black Mist Mountains, the two slowed down and flew low.
"There are a lot more monks in the Black Mist Mountains than usual."
Lu Changan muttered.
In the Black Mist Mountains, where people were rarely visited in the past, the traces of monks increased significantly.
In the natural rift that passes through the branch veins of the Black Mist Mountain Range, as well as the black blood path opened up by the sages, there are even sect monks guarding it.
This phenomenon is related to the War of Cultivating Immortals.
Some of the monks fled to the outskirts of the Black Mist Mountains to escape the war.
Some of these figures, with a very strong aura on their bodies, are likely to be wanted by the sect.
Half a month later.
As we went deeper, there were fewer and fewer monks on the road.
The area that the two of them set foot in was far more dangerous than the periphery of the mountain range, and the demon beasts they occasionally encountered were basically second-order, and there was no shortage of powerful demon beasts in the late second-order period.
The most dangerous time, there was a quasi-third-order demon bird that swept through the nearby sky.
The quasi-third-order demon bird is much faster than the fake Dan real person, and once it is targeted, it is difficult to get rid of it.
Fortunately, Lu Changan reacted quickly, and hid in time with Shi Fairy to restrain his mana aura.
"When I came here before, the surrounding demon beasts were not so powerful."
Shi Fairy had palpitations, explored according to the route in his memory, and led the way in front.
……
"It's almost there."
After another half a day, a steep peak came into the vision of the two.
In the depths of that peak, Lu Changan smelled a dangerous aura, there might be a fake Dan level, or even a true third-order demon.
Fortunately, there is no need to go deeper, the location of the ancient ruins in the memory of the master fairy is not far away.
The two of them flew to the bottom of several dangerous peaks.
A rotting swamp, covering hundreds of acres, comes into view.
Far away, Lu Changan smelled a foul smell, which was the poisonous gas emitted from the rotting swamp.
It's the foundation monk, and when you smell it, you will feel dizzy.
In the swamp, there are some snakes, insects, and scorpion poisons, including hidden terrible species.
Whether it is a monk or a demon beast, they all stay away.
Perhaps due to the environmental factors of the poisonous gas, the effect of this swamp on the divine consciousness is far greater than that of ordinary rock formations.
"It looks like someone has been here."
Shi Manrong's eyes settled on a dangerous peak adjacent to the swamp, and he couldn't help but change color.
The mountain walls there were covered with thorns and weeds.
At the same time, Lu Changan sensed a faint and cold divine sense probe.
"Be careful!"
Before the exclamation fell, on the dangerous peak adjacent to the swamp, the light and shadow changed, and three or four figures appeared.
Woohoo!
More than a dozen lotus seeds that shimmered with strange black rays loomed in the air, enveloping Lu Changan and the others.
The mana magic cover that Lu Changan hastily transported was only able to resist two lotus seeds before it was broken.
With a "snort", the black robe of the Shi Fairy was torn, revealing fair skin, but fortunately there was no bloodshed.
The surface of the Black Lotus Secret Weapon was obviously smeared with poison.
"A set of special superlative magic weapons!"
Shi Fairy was moved, pinched the trick in his hand, and the best defensive robe lined with a black skirt gushed out a black water light film, covering the whole body.
Lu Changan sacrificed a silver shield, which rotated rapidly around his body, and there was a sound of "ding", automatically blocking the other black lotuses that attacked.
However, the attack of the black lotus seed magic weapon was only the first to bear the brunt.
This is a close second.
A fiery magic sword slashed horizontally along the gap, forming a flame sword shadow of five or six feet.
A mist-shrouded cloud palette swelled to the width of the roof, rotating in the shape of an umbrella, emitting great suction, covering the two of them from the top of their heads
These two superb magic weapons, although they were used in the middle of foundation building, but under the ambush, they brought a lot of pressure to Lu Changan and the others.
And that's not all.
In the sky above the swamp adjacent to the dangerous peak, a violent mana fluctuation came.
"Being able to survive the attack of Miss Wei's 'Black Lotus Flash' is not a simple person."
The young monk with a high nose bridge wearing a big man, with a different color on his face, stood on the mountain wall with one foot, pinched the trick with both hands, and the mana on his body surged.
A bronze Changge with a simple texture floats in the air, exuding a spiritual pressure that is close to a real magic weapon.
"The prototype of the magic weapon! The pinnacle of the late foundation building! ”
At this time, Lu Changan saw the attacker's face clearly.
It was the four Foundation Cultivators, who had previously been hidden by the third-order formation, and only revealed their bodies after making a move.
In addition to the high nose bridge of the late foundation of the peak youth.
In the later stage of foundation building, who controlled the complete set of black lotus magic weapons, she was a long-haired and glamorous woman, wearing a short and medium-length skirt, revealing her slender and white arms and long legs.
Lu Changan sensed that this woman's mana fluctuations were comparable to those of the true disciples of the sect, but she was practicing demonic exercises.
The remaining two are in the middle stage of foundation building, an old man in a sixtieth armor and a middle-aged woman, who respectively control the Huoxia Sword and the Fog Light Yunpa, and cooperate with the siege.
Just now, it was just the long-haired woman who attacked the three Zhuji, almost injuring Lu Changan and the others.
At this moment, the strongest young man with a high nose bridge, the prototype of the magic weapon inspires success.
Boom!
There was thunder in the air.
The bronze Changge flashed vaguely, penetrating the void, emitting the coercion of the False Dan level, and stabbing towards Lu Changan with lightning and thunder.
This blow, taking advantage of the situation in the siege, even had a chance to kill the ordinary late stage of foundation building.
"Taken as a soft persimmon?"
When Lu Changan first entered the seventh layer of the foundation, there was a gap between his mana and the master fairy at the peak of the foundation, and it became a breakthrough for the enemy to kill or seriously injure first.
Lu Changan looked slightly flustered, took out a second-order top-level defensive talisman, and added a layer of crystal loess cover to his body.
Boom!
The second-order earthen cover cracked directly, and a hole was pierced by the bronze Changge.
The silver shield in front of Lu Chang'an's aura suddenly dimmed, shaky, and was about to fall.
At the critical moment, Lu Changan sacrificed another second-order late-stage heavy-armored puppet, holding a heavy shield, and with a "bell", he blocked the bronze Chang Gege, who was only two or three percent of his power.
Laugh at!
Lu Changan's neck was crooked, and he didn't dodge a hidden black lotus seed that flickered.
The black lotus seed threw itself into the air, knocking through a large stone behind it, leaving a deep corroded hole.
Shi Fairy couldn't help but secretly pinch a cold sweat for Lu Changan.
She was still trying her best to fend off the other three Monk Tsuki.
"Huh? The response is very fast! ”
The long-haired and glamorous woman not far away couldn't help but sigh lightly, looking a little surprised.
The hidden black lotus seed just now was one of her killer moves, but she didn't expect that Lu Changan would be able to keenly dodge after "trying" to resist the blow of the magic weapon prototype.
"This kid has a good way to save his life."
The young man with a high nose bridge who manipulated the prototype of the magic weapon was secretly surprised.
The target just now, in the later stage of ordinary foundation building, most of them have to be hated on the spot, at least they have to pay the price.
Lu Changan looked flustered, but in the end he was unscathed.
"Lu Daoyou, set up a formation to fight the enemy."
Shi Fairy transmitted the sound, waved his hand lightly, and a formation disk fell to the ground, and several array flags fell around.
Suddenly, a gray flying sand wind enveloped the area where the two of them were.
Shi Fairy deserves to be a formation genius, and he laid out a set of second-order top-level temporary formations extremely quickly.
This temporary formation will quickly consume the spirit stones in the array disk, and it will not last long.
The young man with a high nose who was wearing a big hat controlled the prototype of the magic weapon and struck with all his strength, making the formation shake for a while, and he couldn't break through it quickly.
With the support of the formation, Lu Changan and Shi Fairy were not afraid of the siege of a certain number of monks of the same rank.
Lu Chang'an and Shi Fairy sacrificed attack magic weapons, and with second-order high-grade puppets, under the cover of the formation, they could occasionally launch a counterattack.
"Shi Fairy, it seems that someone has discovered this place? Didn't you say back then, except for that Qi Zhenren, you didn't know the location of the ruins? ”
"The concubine hasn't been here for decades, and I don't know the specific situation, the covering formation that was laid at the entrance of the ruins no longer exists."
Lu Changan and Shi Manrong secretly communicated.
"The third-order formation has been rearranged here, and most of the ancient ruins have been discovered. The concubine suspects that the real principals are not these monks. ”
In the battle just now, the two of them left room out of some scruples.
The rune treasure of the master fairy, and even the prototype of the hidden magic weapon, were not used.
The ground rock rat in Lu Chang'an's battle power did not participate in the battle.
"After all, it's been so many years. Especially in the past two years, the number of monks who have come to the Black Mist Mountain Range has increased significantly, and it is not uncommon to accidentally discover this place. ”
……
In the valley and marsh, the monks on both sides were at a stalemate for a moment, helpless against each other.
"A bunch of rubbish!"
A low, unhappy voice came from below the swamp.
Poof!
With the spiritual pressure of the False Dan level, the swamp full of poisonous miasma was broken, and a tall figure with a blue glow burst out.
"Tan Zhenren!"
The four foundation-building monks in front of the mountain wall bowed and saluted.
Lan Xia Dan pulled away, revealing a middle-aged man with a full beard in the heavenly court.
"Tan Zhenren? Could it be the ruthless man who betrayed the Fire Palace? ”
Shi Manrong looked at the fake Dan master in the sky above his head, his face changed, and his breathing became short.
"Sure enough, there are real people! The four were just minions guarding the door. ”
Lu Changan sensed Shi Manrong's nervousness.
is also a fake Dan real person, but at the moment, this one has the strongest mana he has ever seen in this life.
In Shi Manrong's opinion, she and Lu Changan teamed up, and they can have the ability to save their lives with the fake Dan real person Zhou Xuan.
But that's only for ordinary fake Dan real people.
Tan Zhenren, who defected from the Lihuo Palace, once defeated two fake Dan Zhenren in one fight and killed one of them.
What's more, the other four monks in the middle and late stages of foundation building are not weaker than the two of them at all.
"Broken!"
Tan Zhenren glanced coldly at the formation under his feet, and slapped it with his backhand, and Dan Li poured like a torrent, forming the outline of a huge palm.
Rumble!
The second-order top-level formation collapsed in an instant, causing Lu Changan and Shi Manrong to expose their figures.
The two of them snorted, their blood churning, and their bodies retreated in the strong wind and waves, barely holding their figures.
"Tan Zhenren, the concubine is ......"
Shi Manrong bowed, and the surrounding people made negotiations.
Tan Zhenren sneered on his face, could not be distinguished, and pinched the trick with one hand.
Not!
A dragon's head water wave pillar of more than ten zhang swept across the sky, roaring and shaking qi and blood, with waves and waves, turning over and pounced on Lu Changan and Shi Manrong.
The best defensive magic weapon of the two of them dimmed in an instant, and they were broken by them without supporting two breaths.
However, Lu Changan and Shi Manrong both had talisman protections to block the aftermath of the dragon's head water column.
"This person's strength is close to the early stage of the True Dan."
Lu Changan secretly assessed.
Tan Zhenren frowned slightly, opened his mouth and spit out a cold light, turning into a black and simple ruler.
This is a real magic weapon, and the spiritual pressure emitted is almost like that of a True Dan monk.
The black-colored ruler dripped, condensing the dark blue light, hovering above the heads of the two, and there was a sense of heaviness of Mount Tai.
This one foot down is enough to break through the mountains.
Lu Changan's face was solemn, and the threat level of this person was far better than that of He Yuanwu and Xiang Jinglong.
He estimated that the quasi-third-order defensive talisman would not be able to withstand the blow of the opponent's magic weapon.
Shi Fairy's face was pale, and his jade hand was spread out, revealing an oversized blue talisman carved with a lifelike ice spear.
She still didn't feel safe, and secretly pinched a quasi-third-order talisman.
"Make such a big move, for fear that outsiders won't know about this place?"
Suddenly, a shout of discontent came.
"Hu Zhenren!"
"Master Hu!"
On the mountain wall connected to the swamp, the stone gate opened, and out came a short old man with a black beard.
"And a second real person?"
Lu Changan felt tricky.
If you guessed correctly, this real person is a third-order array mage, responsible for conquering the ancient ruins, and I don't know how much progress has been made.
If it is a year and a half late, the benefits in the ruins may be taken first.
"Senior Hu? How did you get here? ”
Shi Manrong's eyes lit up, and when he saw the short old man with a black beard, he said in surprise.
"Huh! It's a little teacher. ”
Hu Zhenren's eyes fell on Shi Fairy, and after a little recognition, he showed a hint of surprise.
This time out, Lu Changan and Shi Manrong both disguised themselves.
"Hu Zhenren, what is the relationship between these two and you?"
Tan Zhenren put away the magic weapon ruler and cast a questioning gaze.
"Tan Zhenren, don't misunderstand, the little master is the rising star of the formation mage once pointed out by the old man, and today is a pure coincidence meeting......"
Hu Zhenren explained.
and secretly exchanged a few words.
Tan Zhenren's face softened slightly, looked at Shi Fairy, and said, "Where did the two of you get the news when you found this place?" ”
"Back to Tan Zhenren. In this place, the concubine body actually predates you......"
Shi Manrong knew that he couldn't hide it, even if he pretended not to know the ancient ruins, the two real people would definitely not believe it, and they would never let her and Lu Changan go easily.
"I see, it's better to come early than to come at a good time."
Hu Zhenren stroked his beard and smiled.
He looked at Tan Zhenren again and discussed: "The little master is very talented in the formation, and he also knows more about the ruins, so it is better to let her join and help the old man break the formation." What does Tan really think? ”
"Feasible."
Tan Zhenren nodded, one more formation mage can speed up the formation breaking, and he doesn't mind selling Hu Zhenren a face.
"What is this man's relationship with you?"
Tan Zhenren's gaze fell on Lu Changan.
"This is the Lu Fu Master of Wuqi Mountain, who has a deep friendship with the concubine, and originally planned to explore the ruins with the concubine."
Shi Manrong replied truthfully:
"Master Lu Fu has profound skills, and I believe that he can help the two seniors."
"We have enough manpower, we don't need a talisman!"
Tan Zhenren's tone was cold, and he looked at Lu Changan's expression, and his killing intent was not disguised.
"Senior Hu, can you be accommodating......" Shi Manrong begged softly.
"Little Master, Tan Zhenren has already made an exception. The more people you take, the more variable it is to enter the ruins. ”
Hu Zhenshi was resolute and shook his head.
He ran Dan Li in the air, separating Shi Manrong and Lu Chang'an.
Without the orders of the two real people, the four monks who were in the middle and late stages of foundation building stepped forward to surround Lu Chang'an.
