Chapter 13 Something Strange
"Huh, what's going on?" Ye Yichen was stunned. She thought back to the situation on the road, and it was true. "But who would deliberately destroy the Windwind Gorge, and hasn't this Gorge been closed and abandoned for years?"
"I don't know, haven't we met yet?" Cheng Bang snorted and said, "Some traces here don't look like they were left from when the Windwind Gorge was abandoned. If someone destroys it all the way and shatters the rock wall, then this person's cultivation level is very high. I can't break the rock wall here anyway, it's a lot worse. ”
"Completion of the Divine Period? or Heavenly Period?"
"I don't know. However, it is difficult to say, maybe there is some special cultivation method that can exert great power in a relatively ordinary realm. Or, even the Warlock Department, using magic circles and other means, maybe you can do it. ”
"Circle...... It's hard to say. Thinking of the earth-shattering skills of those monks, Ariel Ye was also silent, and now, they are just speculating.
With this in mind, the more careful they are to move forward. The Windward Gorge is not very deep, and the rock walls on both sides are only more than 100 zhang high, and you can still see patches of sky of different sizes intermittently overhead. In the daytime, with their skills, it is not too much to climb up, but at night, everyone should be careful to run in the middle of the road, beware of unexpected things that may appear on the rock wall.
After crossing fifteen miles, there is a long and intact road ahead, and due to the unique environment of the Windwind Gorge, there are some low, drought-tolerant shrubs on the side of the road, as well as some cacti, cactus balls and other plants, although the Windwind Gorge has been closed for many years, but there is no tendency to spread and grow, and it does not affect the passage. They followed the road all the way until they were fifty miles from the entrance, and then they saw a dense expanse of lush land in front of them.
"Why are there more plants here all of a sudden?" In a place less than half a mile away from that piece of vegetation, Cheng Bang and Ye Yichen stopped Da Bai and Xiao Bai. Ariel Ye asked curiously.
"I'm afraid there's a water source up ahead. Cheng Bang said, he noticed that Da Bai and Xiao Bai both leaned forward slightly and fell to the ground, making a very obvious posture of vigilance. Da Bai whispered a few times at Cheng Bang, which can be regarded as a reminder.
"There's something ahead. Cheng Bang took the short sword in his hand and unfastened the buckle that fixed the handle of the long knife that was originally on his back, so that he could draw it out at any time to fight. Ye Yichen tightened the medicine bag tied around his waist, took out a pair of leather gloves from his arms and put them on his hands. Both men were ready for battle almost instantly.
"Yangyang!" Ye Yichen beckoned to the golden-threaded bird that was still hovering not far overhead. Yang Yang answered in a very soft voice and flew towards the oasis in front of him. Although it is indeed more dangerous to reconnoiter this kind of work, Yangyang's combat power is relatively strong, coupled with the speed of the degree, and he can also instantly become spiritual, in fact, in this kind of short reconnaissance attack, it is more suitable than Xiao Jin who stays in the camp.
After Yangyang attacked, Cheng Bang jumped off Da Bai and ran towards the oasis together. Ariel Ye carefully released two hanging light techniques, using a spiritual power line to bind the suspended light balls that could only be used for close-range illumination to the bodies of Cheng Bang and Da Bai. This method of illumination was also researched in the Ten Directions Mountains together with the warlocks who operated those immortal stone cannons. In terms of the efficiency of lighting, it may not be cheap, but the advantage is that the light is cold, and it is extremely soft and gentle, not much stronger than the moonlight starlight, and it rarely attracts the attention of other people or monsters, but it can make people with good eyesight have a reliable light source. The binding method of the spiritual power line is actually very simple, but this simple spell is the most popular thing in a series of unreliable alternative spells they have opened in the Ten Directions Mountains. Without him, it is simple and real, and it is not easy to make mistakes. As for those complicated Immortal Enlightenment Radiance Techniques, the Great Radiant Dawn Decision, etc., they had already been thrown away by them and didn't know where they were.
With a slight light, Cheng Bang maintained a distance of almost two hundred steps from Yang Yang in the air, and at a distance of only more than a hundred steps from the oasis, Cheng Bang adjusted his breathing, and the carefully practiced spiritual map was already hanging around him. After carefully observing the spiritual power around him, he immediately noticed the strangeness in it, even though the small oasis in front of him was only a few circles wider than the road, occupying the open space that should have been excavated on both sides of the gorge, but it could make him feel that the aura was too little.
Generally speaking, where there is water, there will always be trees and vegetation, and with trees and vegetation, there will always be animals, and monsters that are much more powerful than ordinary animals, but in this oasis in front of me, it seems that there is nothing when I perceive it with spiritual energy. Those faint, only rough traces are those trees, but nothing else, not even insects in the soil and trees, let alone birds and beasts.
An abundant group of psionic energy seemed to be thrown out of nothingness, and suddenly appeared less than two hundred steps in front of him. As soon as Yang Yang turned around, it was immediately a ray of spiritual energy, shooting towards the thing that appeared. When Chengbang saw the light in front of him, he immediately urged his degree to reach the limit with all his might.
"Twitter-"
Yang Yang screamed continuously, but Cheng Bang felt a little calm. Yang Yang is saying that there is no big problem.
Sure enough, Yang Yang didn't know what he was fighting with, and the light from Yang Yang immediately flashed in front of him. Judging from the understanding of Yangyang, it seems that the rhythm of the battle is still in its hands. Cheng Bang didn't dare to slack off, and rushed towards the place where the battle was born. The few branches swept in front of him were cut off by him, and finally after a few breaths, he rushed to the place where Yangyang was fighting.
The scene in front of him surprised Cheng Bang. Fighting with Yang Yang was something that had always looked like a lizard, and the guy had a tongue that was extremely agile, and from time to time he jumped up and poked out his claws towards Yang Yang. But for Yang Yang, the most dangerous thing seems to be the tongue of the demon beast that looks like a lizard. The lizard-like demon beast's tongue curled, almost reaching more than a dozen feet away, and it could almost be said to be silent and invisible, only leaving a very slight twitching sound in the air. Yang Yang was obviously almost on the road just now, and he was very vigilant about this move of the lizard-like demon beast, and when he saw that the other party's head was crooked and his mouth was open, he immediately turned into a spirit and pounced straight down. Yang Yang's intelligence is much higher than that of the lizard-like demon beast, and this move really suppressed the other party. And the lizard-like monster beast is still sticking out its tongue and attacking reluctantly.
Cheng Bang directly attacked with a short sword and stabbed towards the eyes of the lizard-like demon beast. Unexpectedly, this guy was very flexible, and his tongue spit out towards Cheng Bang, and Cheng Bang hurriedly dodged, but he also lost the angle of attack. The lizard-like monster had already taken a few steps back, shrunk under a rock, and only half of its body was exposed...... And in the next moment, the demon beast disappeared little by little almost under their noses......
"Yangyang, old place, diffuse. Cheng Bang instructed.
Yang Yang swept over Cheng Bang's head and tilted his head, as if he was thinking about something, but he still followed Cheng Bang's instructions, and shot out nine spiritual rays at the same time, heading towards the rock and the surrounding area, enveloping it in a fan.
Sure enough, the lizard-like monster didn't really disappear, but shrank under the rock with its head in its hands. The spiritual rays hit the demon beast, causing ripples, and several extremely complex lights and shadows swept over it, and then returned to the invisible...... Until now, even with the help of the spirit map, Cheng Bang had not perceived this demon beast, as if it had no spiritual power at all......
Probably now that it had been seen again, the lizard-like monster stood still and did not dare to move, its mouth wide open and its whirring cry, low and mournful, as if it was begging for something.
"Hey, what is this?" Ye Yichen also caught up, saw this monster beast that looked a little strange, and asked.
"I don't know, this guy can't perceive it at all, and he can change the color on his body, which really scared me just now. Cheng Bang cautiously approached, but this lizard-like demon beast seemed to be afraid of something, and did not dare to move at all.
"Rest assured, rest assured. Doesn't hurt you. They were all very sensitive to the qi of the demon beast, and they sensed the trembling and fear of the guy in front of them who didn't know how to name it, and both of them invariably put away their combat preparations. Da Bai and Xiao Bai are still watching from the sidelines, ready to show their paws at any time.
Yang Yang landed on Ye Yichen's shoulder, and he screamed at the lizard-like demon beast, which was very demonstrative.
"Demon beasts that can change color and conceal spiritual power activities are very, very rare. Moreover, this is not a Shifang Mountain area. How could there be such a thing?" asked Ariel Ye.
"The Ten Directions Mountains are just easy to give birth to demon beasts, and not all of them are concentrated there. Moreover, after there are more demon beasts, those who are not demon beasts or relatively weak demon beasts will not be able to survive. Who told you that the demon beasts are all from the Ten Directions Mountain?" Cheng Bang grinned and teased Ye Yichen.
"That's right. Ye Yichen didn't care about being ridiculed by Chengbang, and probably gradually got used to it. She said, "But, look at this guy, is this rock a nest? It doesn't look like a natural formation, it's artificially moved like this." ”
After being reminded by Ye Yichen, Cheng Bang took a closer look, and it really made a little bit of sense, although he couldn't be sure whether it was a person who moved it or the demon beast itself tossed it like this, but it was true that these rocks stacked together had a bit of a nest smell.
"There are still people living in the gorge? It doesn't make sense? Although there are some plants here, whether it is the number of demon beasts or the plants here, it should not be able to support a few people. If there are so few people, why should they live in such a place?"
Suddenly, Da Bai and Xiao Bai seemed to sense something, looked towards the distant rock wall, and then looked at each other blankly.
Cheng Bang also felt that the atmosphere here was a little weird, as if he and Ye Yichen were being watched by some kind of mysterious being. (To be continued...!)
