(It's still a chapter today, sorry.) In the future, there will be weekly updates from 10 to 12 chapters!)
In the lake wasteland, there are very few lofty mountains, but there are large areas of low mountains, covered with dense primeval dense forests, which often stretch for hundreds of miles and thousands of miles, and the low depression areas are large lakes and swamps that are called ice and snow at this time, and flood every spring and summer.
At this time, it enters the coldest season of the year, the ice is thick and the edge area of lakes and swamps and primeval dense forests has become a convenient way to advance to Yuzhu Peak.
The convoy marched almost 400 miles away from Yuzhu Peak and stopped, cutting down wood and building a wall according to a steep stone ridge on the side cliff, connecting the accompanying copper carts, and creating a temporary camp in two days.
The camp is the camp of the Canglan School Palace, and Sanxiu is not allowed to enter the camp except for the hunted green wolf to exchange rewards.
The disciples of the Academy Palace did not stay in the camp for long, so they continued to drive in the direction of Yuzhu Peak, and two or three thousand scattered cultivators also flocked away.
The noisy camp was deserted at dusk the day after it was built, and there were no people inside or outside.
Standing on the wall, looking at the elated disciples of the Academy Palace and the scattered cultivators, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Lou Shiyi's mouth, and the afterglow of the setting sun hit his slightly higher forehead, but it couldn't illuminate the gloom in his eyes.
Lou Yao walked into the camp and saw Lou Shiyi standing on the wall from a distance, looking at the direction of Yuzhu Peak.
The elders of the school palace and the elders who accompanied them mostly went into meditation in the copper house car or tent, and Lou Yao was afraid that something would fall into the ears of others, so he gave Lou Shiyi a look and motioned to go out of the camp to speak.
Lou Shiyi walked out of the camp and went to a pine ridge to meet Lou Yao, at this time Lou Li also rushed over when he heard the news and asked Lou Yao: "Are you eyeing Chen Xun?"
"Qu Shi didn't expect it badly, we stared at the people of Beishan from a distance, and we really saw them converging with Chen Xun in Canglong Ridge," Lou Yao said, "Chen Xun couldn't get rid of us, so he left alone the next day, his whereabouts were strange and unpredictable, and he should have hid in that place." We stared at the people in Beishan and rushed over after two more days. Seeing that those people in Beishan contacted Sanxiu and didn't rush to Yuzhu Peak, looking at their posture, I suspect that Chen Xun has a chance, and he will rush back to join them. Are we going to get rid of them?"
"Su Lingyin is staring at this side, there is no chance to make a move!" Lou Li shook his head, asked Lou Yao not to act recklessly, and said, "Right now, it's still the trial of Shiyi, and this is what Qingyang Master Ancestor means......"
Lou Yao is right to think about it, Lou Shiyi has been humiliated by Chen Xun for three years, and his heart is very deep; Qingyang Shizu is also based on this reason to resist the obstruction of Su Lingyin, Su Qingfeng and others, and agree to Lou Shiyi's invitation to fight Chen Xun.
And with the vision of Qingyang Shizu, he will not care about the grievances between the Ghost Xi Department and the Beishan Nine Clans at all.
If the Ghost Xi Department must pull Shiyi into the grievances with the Beishan Nine Clans, maybe it will also make the Qingyang Master Ancestor unhappy.
But how to say it, the goal of killing Chen Xun at this time is the same.
Lou Yao said: "I won't go to Yuzhu Peak this time, just staring at these people in Beishan......" Lou Yao said.
Lou Li was accompanied by the guest Qing of the Wuwei Mansion, maybe when, he would be sent by the Thirteenth Master to do hard work somewhere, his master and the fourth master all hoped that Shiyi could kill Chen Xun, but obviously they would not do anything, Tie Xintong, Gu Jianfeng, and Zongya were not weak, so they needed Lou Yao to stay and watch.
"When I surrender the two-headed vulture, I have the energy to dig three feet into the ground and dig out the miscellaneous pieces with a thousand knives!" Lou Shiyi gritted his teeth with hatred when he thought of that name, and it seemed that every byte he spit out contained monstrous hatred.
Lou Shiyi didn't know that Chen Xun and Ah Qing had always been hiding in the mountains thirty miles away from the camp, and they had always been very patient to pay attention to the Yiqiē in the camp.
Although thirty miles had already passed the limit of the Soul Chasing Seal's faint breath, Chen Xun did not dare to try to get too close for fear of alarming the strong people in the camp.
He saw the two-headed vulture departing and flying northwest, so he stood guard in the northwest corner of the camp, waiting for Lou Shiyi to come out of the camp.
Afraid of being monitored, Chen Xun didn't contact Zongya and them, knowing that they came over safely, just meet Qianlan above.
Three days later, Lou Shiyi left the camp, carrying a black-edged unsheathed giant sword on his back, wearing a purple robe, and using a hat to shield himself from the wind and snow, and walked alone in the northwest direction.
Chen Xun and Ah Qing slept in the open along the way, far behind Lou Shiyi.
Lou Shiyi cultivated the Dragon Binding Technique, and his spiritual sense was also extremely keen, and he had even learned the secret technique of soul chasing and tracing, but he was concentrating at this time, and he just wanted to subdue the two-headed scaly vulture as soon as possible, and he didn't expect that Chen Xun not only did everything possible to escape from his pursuit at this time, but instead stared at him from a distance all the way and walked west together.
Two days later, almost to the northwest of Yuzhu Peak, Chen Xun saw Lou Shiyi enter a swamp hidden between mountains and dense forests alone.
The swamp doesn't look big, and it looks like it's ten or twenty miles deep, but there is a biting cold air that overflows from the depths of the swamp.
The lakes and swamps outside the mountains are covered with thick ice at this time.
And this swamp is obviously colder than the outside of the mountain, but when you pull out the dense shrubs and thin grass, you can see the cold water under the dead branches and rotting leaves, and there is no sign of freezing.
Lou Shiyi, who was unscrupulous all the way west, became cautious before entering the swamp, and he didn't know what exercises he used, lying on the ground, touching the ground with his hands and feet, looking like a big toad from a distance, quietly burrowing into the bushes and cattails.
This situation made Chen Xun also vigilant, I don't know what kind of danger is hidden in this seemingly calm swamp covered by countless shrubs and cattails, and Lou Shiyi is also so cautious, could it be that this is the old nest of the two-headed scale vulture, Lou Shiyi hides his breath with this strange technique?
Chen Xun did not rush to follow Lou Shiyi into the swamp, but retreated to a stone col, sacrificed the soul chasing seal, to sense Lou Shiyi's breath, to see what his intention was to enter the swamp, to see if the monster's lair was in the depths of the swamp.
However, Chen Xungang injected his spiritual sense into the Soul Chasing Seal, and he sensed that there were hundreds of strange beast breaths hidden in the depths of the swamp.
The aura of these strange beasts does not look strong, but there are extremely large numbers, and the dense stubble is hidden in the depths of the grass, even if Chen Xun is more than ten miles away, he also feels that his scalp is numb and his back is cold.
Don't talk about him, even if he is a strong man who has returned to the womb realm, he recklessly breaks into this swamp, and the result is death and no life.
Chen Xun and Ah Qing quietly turned out of the stone col, dived to the edge of the swamp, lay on the ground, pulled out the grass, and saw a black giant toad bigger than a roe deer, lying in the cold spring more than ten zhang away, puffing out ugly eyes to look over, cold and ruthless eyes leaking fierce flames, tongue flying out, as if to roll Chen Xun over as a worm to eat.
Chen Xun didn't have time to retreat, and the ice toad the size of a roe deer turned in an instant, and its hind feet were like springs, jumping over violently.
The giant toad was in mid-air, without piercing its long insect-catching tongue like a sharp sword, but when it opened its mouth, it spit out a cloud of white mist, which instantly turned into a sharp ice giant arrow, and hit Chen Xun's face.
Chen Xun pressed Ah Qing, who was irritable and was about to pounce out, flashed his face, and his arm was hit by this cold ice blade, his bones were shaken and painful, and a large piece of flesh and blood was knocked off.
Before the blood spurted out, the wound on his arm was frozen by the extremely cold Xuan Qi that leaked in, and the situation was no better than the blood splashing all over the ground, and half of Chen Xun's body almost froze there.
What a pure extremely cold Xuanqi!
Just a casual toad can open its mouth and spit out some pure extremely cold Xuan Qi, and it can also condense into a cold ice blade in an instant, which is really amazing.
Lou Shiyi was in the depths of the swamp more than ten miles away.
It was easy for Chen Xun to kill this giant toad, but it was difficult not to alarm Lou Shiyi; besides, he didn't know how many giant toads were hidden in the depths of the swamp, and if he killed one by the water and attracted a bunch of them, he would be killing himself.
Chen Xun's qi and blood were transported for a few weeks, and then he dissolved the cold qi that fell into his body, and dragged Ah Qing's front legs backwards.
The black toad was so powerful that it jumped ashore like an arrow, and in mid-air it spewed out a cloud of cold mist towards Ah Qing's leopard head.
Ah Qing opened his bloody mouth, stopped his waist and bit the black toad that came to the door, and with a "snap", he bit the giant toad in two, but it also hit the cold fog, and instantly saw a layer of cold ice freeze its head.
Ah Qing's open blood basin mouth opened strangely there, and there was no way to close it, and the entire beast body was planted from mid-air.
Chen Xun sensed that more than a dozen giant toads were rushing from the depths of the swamp, and he didn't dare to stay for a moment, so he picked up Ah Qing, who weighed six or seven hundred catties, and rushed into the depths of the dense forest against the ground, getting rid of the entanglement of more than a dozen giant toads.
In addition to being hit by the cold mist, Ah Qing swallowed half of the giant toad with toad poison, and saw it lying half-naked in the nest of the tree, its eyes were poisonous and green, and its mouth was full of ice slag condensed by the cold mist, and it couldn't move, so he waited pitifully for Chen Xun to feed it the pill to detoxify.
Even if this giant toad is the size of a roe deer, this toad poison can't poison a black leopard.
Chen Xun didn't care whether Ah Qing lived or died, let it suffer a little, and left it in the nest of the tree, he climbed up the canopy and continued to stare at the movement in the depths of the swamp.
Chen Xun guessed that there should be a huge cold spring in the depths of the swamp, and the unfrozen cold water in the depths of the shrubs and pampas grass should all gush out of the cold spring underground.
Giant toads have inhabited and grown in this uninhabited cold swamp for hundreds of years, and all of them look like roe deer, and there is nothing surprising about it.
And what frightened Chen Xun was the giant toad in the swamp, and the number was unimaginable.
He didn't activate the triple rune armor he was wearing, and his arm was hit hard by a cold ice blade, just knocking out a piece of flesh and blood, but the giant toad didn't talk about the spirit of Ferpolai, if there were thirty or fifty black giant toads rushing up and spraying cold ice arrows, Chen Xun thought to himself that this piece of Lou Jiao on his body lost to him with his life This triple vajra mystical armor would be beaten into scrap copper and rotten iron in an instant.
Chen Xun didn't want to find a hidden place to dig a pit and jump in, and after burying himself for three months, he would go to Lou Shiyi to shake hands and make peace, the excitement of Yuzhu Peak, he still wanted to run over to take a look.
However, as long as Lou Shiyi was allowed to subdue the strange vulture, Chen Xun would still want to move around Yuzhu Peak, and it would become extremely dangerous.
The two-headed scale vulture itself was extremely strong, not even weaker than the powerhouse in the early stage of the rebirth realm, and it was not necessarily much worse than the black peng that Su Qingfeng was riding.
And what made Chen Xun even more headache was that the scaly vultures had sharp eyes, and the snow hare thirty or forty miles away could not escape the search of the eagle eyes.
At the same time, the two-headed scale vulture is strong in blood and extremely flying, Lou Shiyi rides the two-headed scale vulture, and in two or three days, he can search the area around Yuzhu Peak, and then there are nearly 100 ghost Xi disciples such as Lou Yao to cooperate on the ground, Chen Xun is afraid that he will not even have a chance to show his head at that time.
However, when Zhuge Liang subdued Meng Huo, he also engaged in seven captures and seven verticals, and it was not easy for Lou Shiyi to surrender the two-headed monster vulture for his own use.
Seeing that Lou Shiyi was in front of the disciples of the Academy Palace, fighting with the monster vulture for most of the day, and finally let go of the two-headed scale vulture that was unwilling to be tamed, Chen Xun guessed that Lou Shiyi would touch the nest of the two-headed scale vulture again.
Looking at this situation, most of the two-headed vultures have built their nests in the depths of this swamp.
