Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Iron-backed Rhino
Three days later.
Xu Mu arrived at Cuilingfang City.
After inquiring about the news and determining the affairs of the Luo family, after passing for the time being, he purchased a positioning magic weapon and entered the Genting Mountain Range.
The locator is a bit like a compass in a previous life, allowing the monk to determine the direction.
The location on the map is quite remote, and without the locator, he may have to take many detours.
Be cautious of him, as soon as he entered the mountain range and went deeper, he restrained his breath and blessed the stealth technique!
As long as you find a slight abnormality on the road, you would rather take a long detour than take any risks.
In this way, it took Xu Mu more than half a month to finally reach the location marked on the map.
"Am I mistaken? Or is there a problem with the map? β
In front of Xu Mu's eyes, there was only a lonely hill, and there was nothing else.
Xu Mu, who was unwilling, searched the entire hill inch by inch three or four times, but still found nothing.
"Shouldn't you have to run for nothing?"
Although I had expected this to happen before I came, when it did happen, it was inevitable that there would be some disappointment.
"What treasures can I have in a Qi cultivation period, maybe I'm too naΓ―ve!"
Xu Mu sighed.
"But you don't really want to go to that woman, do you?!"
The woman in Xu Mu's mouth was the non-human "Lan Shijin" he met when he came from Baihefang City.
The opponent's strength is extraordinary, and there is a high probability of having a dragon's heart nine leafies in his hands.
This is another reason why he came to Genting Mountains.
Xiao Yi's map is more like trying his luck.
Xu Mu took out the map again to study, staring at the two words marked at the end point.
"Yuechen?"
Along the way, he pondered the meaning of these two words.
It's a pity that I can't be sure all the time.
These two words are like the name of the scene, like a specific time, and a bit like some kind of code.
"If the moon refers to the moon, then the chen may refer to the stars, is it that the treasure will be opened on a night with stars and a moon?"
Xu Mu pinched his chin and said secretly.
Is it so exaggerated to be a treasure of the Qi cultivation period?
It's the same as Alibaba!
"If you need a fixed hour, a fixed environment can be opened......"
Xu Mu's heart suddenly pounded.
It's a bit like a legendary secret place!
"Otherwise, wait a few days!"
It's all here, and it's impossible to really take a look at it and go back.
After careful consideration, Xu Mu decided to wait for a while.
I've already traveled so far, and I don't care about this time.
He had a communication circle left at home, and if he really encountered something urgent, Lan Shijin would naturally pass on the news to him.
Later, Xu Mu opened a temporary cave on the mountain, and the large and small vigilance formations arranged nearby, if there was an abnormality, it could be discovered as soon as possible.
Xu Mu didn't put all his hopes on the ethereal treasure, he went out from time to time in the past few days, and he also kept looking for it nearby.
β¦β¦
Thundered!
An iron-backed rhinoceros as majestic as a hill, with red eyes, chased after Xu Mu.
Every time it stepped out, it stepped on the ground and splashed gravel, and the ancient trees that needed to be hugged by one person along the road were even more shattered.
"Didn't I rob you of an elixir, why bother?"
Xu Mu, who kept jumping and dodging in the woods, said helplessly.
The iron-backed rhinoceros couldn't hear this, and still didn't give up.
Xu Mu, who didn't want to be entangled, cast his stealth and disappeared in place.
Roar!
The iron-backed rhino roared, stomped on the ground, and roared! Countless thorns poured out of the ground and soared into the sky, several feet high.
Boom!
Xu Mu's figure appeared in the void.
"Big guy! You're looking for your own death! β
Xu Mu's eyes were cold.
Ga!
The red crow flew out of its body in an instant, and the bird's beak let out a piercing chirp, and a circle of invisible sound waves swept in all directions.
Roar!
The iron-backed rhinoceros shook its body, its eyes became even redder, and it also let out an angry roar to fight.
The red crow suddenly spread its wings and flew into the air, and between the flicking of its wings, countless fireballs condensed in the air and smashed towards the ironback rhinoceros on the ground.
The iron-backed rhino burst with earthy yellow light, condensed a large number of cone of earth in front of him, and shot towards the red crow in the air.
Fireballs and cone of earth collided together, creating a continuous explosion in the air.
The strength of the ironback rhinoceros was obviously inferior, and it was quickly suppressed by the fireball, and it was about to attack its body.
Just as the iron-backed rhinoceros was frightened, a figure appeared in front of it, like lightning slicing through the void, and before it could react, half of its neck was severed.
"Ho! Ho! β
Blood surged, and the huge body of the iron-backed rhinoceros was heavily planted on the ground.
Ga!
The red crow chirped, its body shrank, and it flew down to Xu Mu's shoulder.
The four eyes opened, and the pupils turned, like four small whirlpools.
Roar!
The spirit of the iron-backed rhinoceros, under the action of invisible forces, was slowly withdrawn and roared and struggled in the air.
The red crow opened its beak and sucked it straight in.
The four eyes returned to normal and merged into Xu Mu's body again.
After Xu Mu cut the body of the iron-backed rhino, he put it in a storage bag and quickly left here.
On this day, while meditating and cultivating in the cave, he suddenly felt a strange movement in his chest.
Immediately finished his work, opened his eyes, and pulled out the thing that was moving in his chest.
It's a formation compass!
After Xu Mu injected spiritual power into it, he immediately activated a light curtain, and there was an area on it that kept flashing cyan light.
"The alert formation I set up has a response!"
Xu Mu frowned slightly, thinking to himself, could it be a demon beast that didn't have long eyes?
He put the compass away, collected his breath, and applied a stealth spell to himself, and then walked out of the cave and quickly rushed towards the place where the reaction appeared.
"This is !!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xu Mu's shocked body trembled a little.
The original ordinary mountain wall, at this time, there was a crack more than one person high, and it was dark inside, and nothing could be seen, as if it had grown out of thin air.
Xu Mu looked up at the sky in the distance, the sun had just risen, and it was the hour of the day.
"Could it be that the chen on the map represents the chen time?"
"The so-called month doesn't mean just a month, right?"
He hasn't been here for long, and if he appears once a year, he shouldn't be so lucky to come across it.
"At a certain time, in a specific place, this shouldn't really be a secret place, right?"
Xu Mu's heart was beating wildly.
Originally, it was just a random guess, but I never expected that a blind cat would meet a dead mouse.
This kind of good thing can actually be encountered by him.
Wrong!
Xu Mu suddenly woke up, and his heart shook secretly.
The secret realm is an independent small space, either supported by peerless powerhouses, or there is a powerful formation, relying on the top spiritual veins to maintain, otherwise the secret realm cannot exist independently at all.
With a top-level spiritual vein, even if it is just a simple cultivation inside, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to break through to the foundation builder.
If it was really a secret realm, Xiao Yi couldn't stupidly abandon it and go outside to work his own.
"It's possible that it's just some kind of magical formation!" Xu Mu thought to himself.
He picked up a rock and threw it inside.
The stone made a crisp thud and bounced out of it again.
"There's a stone wall in there!"
Xu Mu pondered for a moment, took out a talisman, and threw it in.
The talisman exploded inside in an instant, turning into a fireball that completely illuminated the space.
It was an enclosed stone chamber, with two skeletons lying in the corner, ten steps in a radius, and nothing else.
He tugged at the rope around his waist and shook it, and the rope seemed to come alive and leaned in.
This is the rope magic weapon he once got from the Li brothers in their pockets, and he has always kept it on his body and used it as a corset.
The rope wrapped around the two skeletons and pulled them out of it.
After careful inspection, Xu Mu found that they were two ordinary bones, not to mention any treasures, and even the clothes were just the most ordinary fabrics, which were already rotten.
"Is this the so-called treasure? That's! β
Xu Mu was disappointed.
I feel like I've been tricked by a dead man.
Unwillingly, he grabbed another black-scaled beast, threw it in, and only after finding that there was nothing abnormal did he go in to check.
I was even more disappointed after the check.
It's an ordinary stone room, there is not even a formation, and the aura inside is extremely thin, eight or nine percent lower than the outside, which makes him uncomfortable.
He knocked on the stone wall, but there was no crisp echo, indicating that there was an entity behind it, not a hollow.
"In such a magical place, there is such a stone room, how idle this person should be!"
Xu Mu was depressed and wanted to vomit blood.
It feels like so many days have been wasted.
Still a little unwilling, he sat cross-legged and pinched the magic trick in his hands.
Ga!
The red crow flew out of his body, shimmering all over his body, gradually becoming illusory, and slammed headlong into the stone wall.
Nothing was falling apart, and the red crows just blended in.
In Xu Mu's mind, scenes from the stone wall appeared.
The next moment, the red crow suddenly broke away from the stone wall and flew into the sky, and as far as the eye could see, there was a vast and endless sea with blue waves rolling.
