Chapter 453 - Into the Heavens
In the following journey, Lin Yan and the others suffered no less than six or seven large and small attacks, but fortunately, there was no master like Liu Suifeng among the pursuers, and everyone was able to save the day several times.
After many days of tossing and turning, the group finally came to the border, and further on, they would step into the Tianjue Mountain Range.
In the past, Lin Yan entered the mountain range from within the Tang Realm, and the routes he took were also some relatively safe places, even if he was in danger a few times, he was still under control.
And this time they came from the territory of Nanban, and they were completely blind to the route or something, and these things needed to be re-explored.
Previously, when Lin Yan was forced to a desperate situation by Xuantian Sect, he jumped off the cliff and was rescued by Lin Gu, and then he also lived there for a period of time, and this time, he was going there.
People are always like this, when they go to a certain place, they will always instinctively choose a place they are familiar with to settle down.
And this time, Lin Yan's stay in the Tianjue Mountain Range will not be too short, and there must always be a safe place to stay.
After a little trimming, Lin Yan and his party headed towards the mountains.
Originally, Lin Yan was going to enter the Tianjue Mountain Range alone, but this time his situation was nine deaths, and venturing into the Tianjue Mountain Range was just a last resort to seek that glimmer of life, and there was no need for others to accompany him on the adventure.
Lin Yan's original intention was to let them cross the border and enter the territory of the Eastern Tang Dynasty first. In this way, not only can you temporarily get rid of the pursuers, but also relatively safe.
It's just that Mingya and the others can't rest assured of him, now Lin Yan's situation is already very dangerous, and it will be even more difficult to seek a breakthrough in this dangerous and abnormal Tianjue Mountain Range.
Lin Yan couldn't resist them, so he agreed, and after carefully confirming the route, the group headed towards the Tianjue Mountain Range.
Among the group, Lin Yan was the most seriously injured, followed by Monk Chen and Guo Toad, who, as the vanguard, attacked Liu Suifeng and suffered injuries that should not have been borne by their realm, and now they are also in urgent need of treatment.
It's good to act together now, after all, the doctor is only Miao Miaomiao, so they can also be taken into account and convenient for treatment.
In any case, it is not the first time that Lin Yan and Ming Ya have entered the Tianjue Mountain Range, although the routes are different, they can always seek common ground while reserving differences, and summarize some rules from it.
In this way, it helped them avoid some dangers and move in a certain direction.
The danger on the periphery of the mountain range is nothing more than some fierce beasts and poisonous insects, the former is to avoid as much as possible, as for the latter, everyone now has some different means.
Because of the existence of Miao Miao, a doctor, she sprinkled a special medicinal powder on the body of the group, and the ordinary poisonous insects were very disgusted with this smell, and they would not approach at all, but it was a lot less troublesome.
On the other side, shortly after they entered the mountains, the pursuers followed, only to stop beyond the mountains.
It's not because of anything else, but the fierce reputation of the Heavenly Absolute Mountain Range is too strong, don't talk about them, even high-level martial artists are dangerous to enter it!
Ordinary hunters will also go to the outskirts of the mountain range to hunt, but the more information they know, the more they are full of awe and fear of this heavenly mountain.
The reason why the people who enter it, whether they are bold or fearless, do not reach the level that everyone talks about, is simply because the threat on the outskirts of the mountains is limited, and the real horror is beyond the reach of these people!
One of his subordinates said, "Chief, what should we do now?" ”
The leading man frowned and thought for a moment, and then said, "You take a few people back to report the situation here, and I'll take someone in to take a look." ”
The men led a few people to lead the way, and the man who led the way turned his head to the mountain range in front of him again, his eyes full of solemnity.
In fact, they are not soldiers trained in the military formation of the Southern Dynasties, at best, they can only be regarded as Yangguang's private army. However, now that the master has successfully ascended to the throne, their identities will also quietly change and truly come to the stage.
I don't know how many shady things this private army raised by Yang Guangfu has dealt with him over the years, and it is relatively easy to use, so this time the task of chasing and killing fell to them again.
The efficiency of the whole team is to be reduced to zero and the situation of a small team is to be tracked a lot.
This mission, as long as it is done well, will inevitably receive a great reward when Yang Guangchu ascended the throne and the situation is not stable.
But where can this be so easy?
The man at the head of this small team is called "Kuroko", and he has been joining Yangguang's private army for a long time, and he has also had many tasks over the years, and it was not easy to climb to his current status.
But not once had a previous mission more unsettling than it was now.
He tracked down Lin Yan and his party, but in his opinion, it was not a good thing. There is also a difference between what can be earned and what cannot be earned, and if you don't get it right, you will bury your life!
As far as he knew, there were several teams that pursued Lin Yan and his party before, but they were all wiped out, and he didn't want to become dead corpses on the ground like those people.
But this kind of thing is involuntary for him, dare to disobey the yang and the yin, what awaits him is a punishment that is a hundred times more terrifying than death!
After arranging the messengers, Kuroko led the rest of the people towards the Tianjue Mountain Range.
He had already made up his mind that he would only search on the periphery, and if the search was fruitless, he would withdraw as soon as possible. Although they are tools in the hands of Yang Guang, they don't want to die in vain.
It's just that Heizi and the others have never entered the Tianjue Mountain Range before, and when they hear its murderous name, they don't know anything about the actual situation inside.
Not long after entering it, Kuroko and the others were unlucky to encounter a large group of "ghoul rats". This rat-like beast usually feeds on the corpses of other fierce beasts, leaving only bones in the places it passes, and not even a shred of flesh remains.
But the group of "ghoul rats" that Kuroko saw had already caught up in size with the old cats, and there were nearly a thousand of them in groups.
They came towards Kuroko and the others like locusts crossing the border, and the latter wanted to avoid but found that there was no way to avoid it.
There is no choice but to accept the impact head-on. With such a horrible number, how could they be expected to follow the habit of eating dead bodies.
As the first "ghoul rat" attacked, the two sides began to collide fiercely.
Although the physical fitness of the people on Kuroko's side is generally not low, and they have tacit cooperation, the combat effectiveness that can be exerted is not weak.
And that "ghoul rat" is just a fierce beast on the periphery of the Heavenly Absolute Mountain Range, most of them are mortal-level strength, and very few have reached the spirit level.
However, in front of that terrifying number, the gap in strength is being made up little by little, and Kuroko and the others are almost desperate at this moment to understand the truth of "ants bite more elephants".
Originally, the team of more than sixty people were all martial artists of the Tongmai Realm, and the leading sunspot had even reached the acquired realm. But with just one wave, two-thirds of the manpower was lost.
Those people died in an extremely horrible state, being bitten to death by countless "ghoul rats", and most of them were tormented by the horror of Ling Chi when they were awake, watching their bodies being swallowed by the "ghoul rats" one by one.
In an instant, there are only the skeleton of Sen Bai left with the vast majority of his companions, which truly explains what it means to be dead without a corpse!
Fortunately, the rat colony only made this round of impact, and then gradually disappeared in the established direction of travel. If they had turned around, none of the people present would have escaped for their lives today.
The rest of the sunspots and the others were squatting on the ground at the moment, gasping for breath. Their clothes were soaked in blood, some of them were their own, some of their companions, and of course many more of them were of rats.
At this moment, there were less than twenty people left, including Kuroko himself, and he didn't expect that this Heavenly Absolute Mountain Range would be so terrifying. You know, that's just on the periphery!
In fact, this is to blame their bad luck this time, in the past, although there are traces of "ghoul rats" and other fierce beast activities on the periphery, it is not easy to have such large-scale activities.
The reason is that there are some unknown special changes in the depths of the mountain range at this moment, which has caused the behavior of the fierce beast to be abnormal.
The sunspot was in shock, the Tianjue Mountain Range had now become so dangerous, Lin Yan and his party were originally physically injured, and their state would inevitably decline further after experiencing several waves of attacks, maybe they encountered some fierce beasts when they entered the mountain range, and then died in them.
Even if it weren't, it would not be possible to stay in the Heavenly Absolute Mountain Range for too long, because if you did so, you would have to face the dangers that would follow in the mountain range, and sooner or later it would be a dead end!
As soon as they came in, they suffered such heavy losses, and the people who survived were already thinking of retreating, and after Kuroko gave the order, they escaped from the mountains with rolling and climbing.
Standing outside the mountain range again, Kuroko and the others greedily breathed in the fresh air, and the whole person seemed to have been reborn.
He didn't dare to enter this mountain range again in the short term, and before the reinforcements arrived, he could only guard the entrance and exit here.
But the Tianjue Mountain Range stretches for I don't know how many miles, and it is impossible for them to do everything, so they can only do their best and obey the destiny of heaven!
In his opinion, Lin Yan and his party entering the Tianjue Mountain Range was itself an act of seeking death, perhaps they were forced to make such a choice in desperation!
There are only two possible outcomes: one is to die in the mountains, and the other is to quit the same way after experiencing losses, just like them.
As for crossing the entire Heavenly Peerless Mountain Range? Just kidding, I haven't heard of anyone who can do it!
