Chapter 5: The Black Forest

"Xu Han!! can you hear me!!

The sound is crisp and pleasant, echoing through the deep valley and abyss.

It was Mu Xue's voice. Xu Han slowly opened his eyes.

"Xu Han!

Looking around, I saw Mu Xue standing on the edge of Tianzi Peak, shouting at him with both hands in the shape of a trumpet. The big guy was also on the side.

Xu Han stood up, his figure flashed, and he stepped on the peak wall several times, and then flew back to the top of Tianzi Peak.

"What's the matter?" After two days and two nights of sleepless cultivation, Xu Han's sword cultivation reached the peak realm of the seventh level of the Barbarian Realm, and he was only one step away from breaking through.

"Xue Li and I want to go to the secret realm to explore, harvest a little demon crystal, and if you're lucky, maybe you can even harvest rare sword skills!" Mu Xue said, the more excited she became.

The big man Xue Li also nodded and said, "So we want to invite you to go with us." ”

Mu Xue playfully pushed Xu Han with her elbow: "Hey! You earned enough face two days ago, and in front of so many people, you educated that damn Meng Feng ruthlessly! Who said that you are a waste, you are so strong!"

"Mu Xue!" Xue Li reminded.

"Oh!" Surprised that she had said the wrong thing, Mu Xue quickly covered her mouth, and then smirked: "Hehehehe...... I didn't say you're trash, I mean ....... ”

"It's okay. Xu Han smiled open-mindedly: "It just so happens that I also want to go through the experience, let's go together." "If you continue to cultivate for a short time, you won't make any progress.

"The lord of the secret realm is too powerful, the three of us may not be able to defeat it, I'll call two more people!" Mu Xue turned around and ran away like the wind.

After a while, she came back dejected.

"No one wants to go with us......" Mu Xue said dejectedly.

"Wouldn't it? Did you tell them about the members of our squad? Xu Han, who easily eliminated the seventh-level powerhouse of the Barbarian Realm, was in our squad. Xue Li felt a little strange.

"Yes, but they still don't want to go...... Because ......"

"Because of what?"

"Someone went there yesterday, but I still went to the secret realm with the least difficulty, it is said that there are four outer disciples of the seventh level of the barbarian realm, and one outer disciple of the eighth level of the barbarian realm is the leader, and the result is ......"

"What happened to the result?" Xue Li's heart tightened.

Mu Xue shook her head: "As a result, none of them came back alive......"

"This ......" Xue Li couldn't help but gasp a few times, and suddenly gave up his plan to go to the secret realm to explore.

"Let's go take a look!" Xu Han felt that something was wrong.

"Oh my God, Xu Han, you're not kidding, are you?" Mu Xue covered her mouth in surprise.

Xue Li also showed a shocked expression: "Brother, I think this matter is still over, the powerhouses of the eighth level of the Barbarian Realm are all planted inside, and we have only one way to die." "Even if Xu Han can easily defeat a barbarian realm seventh-level powerhouse, it is impossible to be worthy of a barbarian realm eighth-level powerhouse, the higher the sword cultivation, the greater the disparity in the strength of the first level, and a barbarian realm eighth-level powerhouse must have at least three or more barbarian realm seventh-level powerhouses join forces to be able to defeat it.

Xu Han disagreed: "As far as I know, the simplest secret realm of the Son of Heaven Mountain Range is the Black Forest, and the demon beasts are about the fifth to sixth level of the barbarian rank, and the lord is only the eighth level of the barbarian rank. How could a strong team leader of the eighth level of the Barbarian Realm be planted in it?"

"I also find it strange. Xue Li held his chin.

"In short, the three of us go in and take a look, and if the situation is not good, we will quickly retreat, even if it is against the lord, the three of us can deal with it. Xu Han wanted to find out.

Mu Xue and Xue Li looked at each other and hesitated for a moment, they agreed to Xu Han's suggestion.

Set off and head to the Black Forest.

The secret realm of the Black Forest is not far from Tianzi Peak, and the entrance is at the peak of the Giant God Peak in the southwest.

The white mist is the sign of the entrance to the secret realm. In front of the vast white mist, a handsome man with a slender body sat cross-legged.

"Are you going to break into the Black Forest?" Seeing Xu Han and them coming, the handsome man stood up.

"Yes. Xu Han nodded, looking at the other party.

"Can you take me?"

"Bring you?" Xu Han squinted slightly.

"Oh, yes. Seeing Xu Han's suspicious gaze, the handsome man hurriedly explained: "Yesterday, my younger brother took four outer disciples into the Black Forest, and he hasn't come back yet, I want to go in to find him, but I don't dare." Just wait here and see if you have any companions. ”

Mu Xue stepped forward and pulled the hem of Xu Han's clothes: "Xu Han, why don't we take him with us?" Anyway, there are only three of us, and the secret realm can enter up to five people! ”

"This junior sister is right, I have an eighth-level sword cultivation in the Barbarian Realm, and I won't drag you down. The handsome man smiled heartily.

"Savage Realm Eighth Level!" Xue Li's eyes lit up: "In this case, we will be more confident!"

Xu Han walked to the white mist with a calm face, and said indifferently: "Since you are willing to join us, just follow." After speaking, as soon as Xu Han stretched out his hand, the whole person was sucked into the white mist and disappeared from the sight of Mu Xue and Xue Li.

"Don't mind, this friend, my brother is like this, but others are not bad. Xue Li was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, and at the same time, he was also a little dissatisfied in his heart, but the other party was a powerhouse of the eighth level of the Barbarian Realm, and his strength was a grade higher than yours. No matter how proud you Xu Han are, you're not qualified to put on a score, right?

"It's okay, my name is Yan Zong, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

"My name is Mu Xue!"

"Xue Li. Xue Li patted his chest.

In the Black Forest.

The grass and trees are all ink, it is clear that it is day outside, but here it is night, sometimes there is a wolf howl, the forest is terrifying, the silence hidden in the grass on the side conveys a hint of danger, and the chilling cool breeze adds a bit of horror to this mysterious place.

"Mu Xue, how did you say this secret realm came about?" Xue Li felt incredible when he entered the secret realm for the first time.

Mu Xue also entered the secret realm for the first time, but she knew a lot about the origin of the secret realm, so she said carefully: "The secret realm is a different space opened up in the original space, and all major sects have it. But who exactly opened it, no one knows. Legend has it that a soul realm powerhouse can open up a different dimension, which has not yet been confirmed. ”

"It's amazing!" Xue Li exclaimed again.

"Why hasn't this friend been talking, haven't you asked your friend's name yet!" Yan Zong took the opportunity to talk to Xu Han.

"Xu Han. Xu Han said without looking back.

"Oh, is it Xu Han who defeated the strong enemy in the Zongmen Square two days ago? I heard about you from other disciples, but unfortunately I wasn't there at the time......

"I'm just a nobody, not a big deal. After a pause, Xu Han said in a deep voice: "However, I'm curious, you obviously have the strength of the ninth level of the Barbarian Realm, but you want to lie about the eighth level of the Barbarian Realm." With your strength, even if you don't look for a companion, it is not difficult to enter the Black Forest alone, why do you have to wait for a companion at the entrance of the secret realm? Moreover, the strong have always been proud, but you are so close to us new disciples, it is really incredible. ”

Barbarian Realm Ninth Rank?Mu Xue and Xue Li threw surprised glances at Yan Sect at the same time. Level 9 and level 8 sound only one level apart, and the difference in strength is not half a point.

Yan Zong's face turned pale, and then he smiled dryly: "Hehe...... Your imagination is too rich, I'm obviously the eighth level of the barbarian realm, where do you see that I am the ninth level of the barbarian realm......"

Xu Han suddenly stopped, stared back at Yan Zong, and a cold light flashed in his deep eyes.

Indeed, it is difficult to judge a person's sword cultivation without making a move. Xu Han couldn't help but sneer, that was just for others, he could judge a person's sword breath through his breath, which was also the "inheritance" left to him in his previous life.

The cold gaze forced Yan Zong to take two steps back, Xu Han closed his eyes lightly and continued to walk forward.

Suddenly, Xu Han's eyes froze.

There was a hideous figure in front of the dark path.

"Savage rank sixth-level demon beast, night wolf. Since it was not a powerful demon beast, Mu Xue's tone was very calm.

Xu Han glanced back at Yan Zong: "I'll leave it to you." ”

Yan Zong's face changed: "You don't need me to make a move, right? It's just a sixth-level demon beast, anyone can make a move." "As soon as he made a move, it was tantamount to exposing his sword cultivation.

The night wolf couldn't wait, so he pounced on him with a howl, but when he pounced in front of Xu Han, he suddenly fell apart and became a puddle of minced meat.

Yan Zong's face showed a look of surprise: "Such a fast sword technique, at least six sword speeds." Friend, you can cultivate your sword skills to the sixth layer at your age, you can be described as a genius among geniuses!"

Why was he so excited? A trace of doubt rose in Xu Han's heart. The Shadowless Sword is a sword skill that purely increases sword speed, and he has only practiced to the third level, but Xu Han has no intention of correcting it.

Xue Li stepped forward quickly and picked up the demon crystal that had fallen from the demon beast's body. The body of the general demon beast is all demon crystals, and only the alien demon beast has Neidan in the body.

There were no particularly powerful demon beasts in the Black Forest, and Xu Han and the others overcame all the obstacles and killed all the way to the lord's habitat.

The lord of the Black Forest turned out to be a huge raven, perched on a huge black tree.

"Mu Xue, do you recognize this lord?" asked Xu Han. In his opinion, Mu Xue's knowledge is quite profound, and she knows all the demon beasts along the way.

"The barbarian eighth-level demon beast, the man-eating crow, is a different kind of demon beast, after eating people, it can digest the heaven and earth vitality in the human body and store it in the inner pill. Mu Xue was a little surprised.

"Hey, brother, we've made a lot of money!" Xue Li said excitedly: "I've heard of the man-eating crow, its inner pill stores the heaven and earth vitality in the body of the person who was eaten, as long as we take the inner pill, the sword cultivation can be improved." The xenomorph demon beast has multiple Inner Dans, let's kill them, and then divide the Inner Dan equally!" "You can improve your sword cultivation without cultivating, and everyone wants such a good thing."

"Slow!" Xu Han stopped Xue Li, who was about to rush forward, and showed a meaningful smile towards Yanzong: "I understand." ”

"Understand what?"

Xu Han's right palm was weak, and the Heavenly Thunder Sword appeared. Instead of pointing at the man-eating crow, his sword was aimed at Yan Zong.
