Chapter 455: Demon Swamp

Xue Shan briefly explained to the master the reason why they came to the city, hoping that the master could provide them with some useful information.

After hearing this, Elder Wei fell into a long memory, and after a long time, he recalled that when he was young, when he listened to his master once talk to others, he inadvertently mentioned the Vientiane Pavilion.

He struggled to recall the conversation he had heard at the time, and finally strung together the scattered information before he speculated:

"The old man of Vientiane Pavilion has heard of it, it seems to be outside Jinwei City in the Ruxian Continent, it is rumored that it is a mysterious organization that knows nothing, but it is far away from here, and I have never been there, I don't know if it is true or not. ”

Luo Yan was very surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect to get the news of the location of the Viane Pavilion so easily, which was completely different from the feeling he had just entered the city.

Although I don't know the truth of this news, it also makes my heart a little excited.

Then, he bowed respectfully and deeply, and then continued to ask, "Have you ever heard of Elder Wei and how to get there?"

The old man said: "This ——, you may only have to go to Ulan City, there is a teleportation array leading to the outside, a few Daoists will make plans after they go out!"

"Then isn't there a teleportation array connected to the outside in this Shenmu City?" Mu Yan'er asked eagerly after knowing the destination.

Elder Wei shook his head and said, "A few fellow Daoists don't know, our Ruimu City is located on the edge of the Ruxian Continent, and there are very few monks who usually come.

The monks in the city are only tens of thousands of people, so they are destitute, and we don't have the ability to build something like a teleportation array that often requires millions of spirit stones to build. ”

Qingyu asked, "Do you know how to get to Ulan City?"

Elder Wei said, "Going out from the north gate of our Ruimu City, we have been flying north, passing through an area known as the Demon Swamp, and we will arrive at Ulan City. ”

After Luo Yan knew the route ahead, he took out a thousand spirit stones from (shēn), handed them to Elder Wei, and said with a smile:

"That's what you're paying us for, and now that we know the route, we won't bother here. Saying that, he got up (shēn) and prepared to leave.

When Elder Wei saw these spirit stones, there was a trace of excitement in his eyes, but it only disappeared in a flash, and then he pushed back: "Daoyou saved the apprentice, this favor has not been repaid, how can I accept your spirit stones again." ”

Luo Yan saw that he didn't accept it, so he retreated and said, "Since this is the case, then these spirit stones will be the sect fees that we paid to Xue Shan in advance, and Elder Wei will accept them on our behalf first." ”

Only then did Elder Wei ask Xue Shan to thank Luo Yan and them and accept the spirit stone, and then hesitated again before adding:

"If you want to cross the Demon Swamp, you also need to go to the shops in the city to buy a spiritual material called Demon Spirit Grass, and wear it on (shēn) to have the effect of restraining the poisonous miasma there. ”

"Even so, you may not be able to pass through safely, it is said that some of the demon beasts in there have already entered the Mahayana stage, and what is the situation under the swamp (qíng), now none of us can say. ”

"In the past, some monks in the city who were not satisfied with the status quo tried to leave, but after entering the Demon Swamp, they never returned. ”

After Luo Yan thanked Elder Wei again, he left Ruimumen.

After coming outside, Qingyu asked, "I think they are very simple, and it seems that the resources here are also very poor, you are like this."

If you are rich, why only give him a thousand spirit stones?"

Luo Yan smiled and said, "Although we don't care about the eight thousand spirit stones now, if we take out so many directly, it will inevitably make them feel that we are rich, and it will not add to the trouble if it causes unnecessary trouble."

Walking outside, "wealth does not reveal wealth" This is the experience summed up by the ancients, and it is better for us to act in accordance with the teachings of the ancients. ”

Leaving Ruimumen, the three of them entered a medium-sized shop on the street where old Taoist merchants gathered, according to Elder Wei's prompts.

Luo Yan spent three thousand spirit stones to buy some demon spirit grass inside, and then transferred to another shop some distance away and bought another three thousand spirit stones of demon spirit grass.

After that, they went to several other shops, and each of them bought some spiritual materials for use, and then walked towards the north gate.

When passing through the doorway, I saw that the shape of the qíng here was similar to the south gate where they entered, and several armor soldiers were also walking around lazily, exchanging a few words from time to time, and not caring about the people passing by.

After the three of them left the city, they saw that there were several footprints of different shades on the snow, and it seemed that there were a few people in front of them who had just left the city.

Luo Yan took out the Demon Spirit Grass and gave a portion to Qingyu and Mu Yan'er, and then flew forward with the snow on his feet.

Qingyu and Mu Yan'er also flew up and followed closely behind.

The three of them soon came to a snowy peak, which was already thousands of miles away from Ruimu City, and as soon as they fell, they saw five monks with black (shēn) shadows in front of them, standing on the top of the peak and looking ahead.

At this moment, they also found Luo Yan and the three of them, and immediately raised their vigilance, and one of the middle-aged men with a straight nose and a straight mouth whispered: "Everyone take care of yourself, let's leave this place as soon as possible." ”

The others nodded, and immediately turned into Dao Dao black light and galloped forward.

Luo Yan observed, among the five people, there were three men and two women, with the middle-aged Han cultivator who spoke just now as the highest, and he was a monk at the peak of the merger, and the other four were all monks in the late stage of the merger.

The black robes they wore (shēn) were embroidered with a symbol of a circular sphere with swords intersecting.

Luo Yan had some impressions of this symbol, which was exactly the sign of the killing of the members of the alliance who hijacked the merchant ships of the Shentangmen before, but he didn't know what level these people in front of him were in the alliance.

However, according to their cultivation, it should be at the level, but it is not clear how many black and white luans there are on their tokens.

"What is the purpose of their presence here?" Luo Yan asked himself in his heart.

Mu Yan'er saw that he was distracted by the five people who flew away, so he asked, "Have you seen them?"

"You can say you've seen it, or you can say you haven't seen it. Luo Yan replied.

"I'm even more confused when you say that. Mu Yan'er was even more puzzled by his answer.

Luo Yan retracted his gaze and explained, "To be exact, I've only seen the pattern on their robes, which is a unique symbol called the Killing Alliance.

In the past, I had a confrontation with their members during my travels, but that was what happened on the True Emblem Continent (qíng), and now that they have appeared in the Ruxian Continent, it seems that the members of this organization are still very wide. ”

Qingyu said: "I have heard the master mention it before, it is a loose alliance with no distinction between good and evil, and most of the members are some

For those who only recognize spirit stones and magic weapons, and do not recognize people, it is better for us to keep a distance from them. ”

Luo Yan also nodded in agreement with her statement.

The three of them stayed on the snow peak for more than an hour, released their divine senses to check the area of millions of miles ahead, and compared a few sketchy maps that Luo Yan bought in the city, and roughly judged that they would soon enter the Devil's Swamp area.

After resting, Luo Yan took out the spirit boat again and prepared to continue flying by boat.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that there was a spiritual energy fluctuation in the snow in front of him, as if something was hiding there, so he immediately transmitted the message to Qingyu and Mu Yan'er, and then quietly came to the snow.

When the three of them surrounded him, they found that it was an injured piebald deer, and saw a black feathered arrow pass through his (shēn) body.

The blood that flowed out was now stained red (shēn) with snow next to him, and at this moment, he was dying.

Luo Yan stretched out his hand to emit a white light, lifted his (shēn) body, brought it back to the spirit boat, gave him an elixir, helped him pull out the feather arrow, and then injected a true qi to protect his heart.

After a few screams, the spotted deer looked at Luo Yan and the three of them in horror, and asked in a low voice, "You Terrans killed me, why did you save me?"

"Who is going to kill you? Could it be the five people who just left?" Luo Yan asked rhetorically.

Spotted Deer said: "It's a black-robed human standing on the snow peak before, I just glanced up at them, and one of them came with poisoned arrows (shè), if I hadn't avoided the vital parts, I'm afraid it would have fallen by now." ”

Luo Yan checked the poison (xìng) on him (shēn) and said: "I'm not in the same group as them, if you take this pill again, the poison (xìng) on (shēn) will be solved soon, and we still have something to do, so we won't accompany you anymore." ”

As he spoke, he lifted the body of the spotted deer (shēn) and placed him on the snow next to the spirit boat.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the spotted deer asked, "Are you going through the Demon Swamp?" Can you take me on a ride too, and when I get out of the swamp, I will leave without disturbing you." ”

Qingyu said: "Seeing that he is so pitiful, let's take him for a ride." ”

Luo Yan agreed and put him on the spirit boat again, and then (cāo) controlled the spirit boat to continue flying.

On the way, Luo Yan asked him how he appeared here, and Spotted Deer explained: "I was originally a little demon who traveled around, and later came to Ruimu City, but the human race there could not tolerate a demon beast. ”

"After I was discovered, I escaped from the northern city under the east hiding in Tibet, and I came to this vast snowy land, for me who only had the middle stage of refining the void, there was a swamp where the evil beasts of the Mahayana period existed, and there was Ruimu City that could not accommodate the demon clan, and it was a dead end to advance and retreat, so I was trapped here for a hundred years. ”

"Just now, I saw those five black robes, and saw that among them were the same kind of our demon clan, I wanted to be with them, but I was almost killed. ”

Luo Yan heard his experience, sighed and said: "There are good people and bad people, and there are good and bad demons, you can make a decision in the future." ”

Qingyu and Mu Yan'er sat behind Luo Yan (shēn) and did not talk much with the spotted deer.

After seven days of traveling, the boat flew over a mountain peak, and there was no heavy snow here.

Under the sunlight, the scattered snowflakes had already turned into water, and dwarf green vegetation and some mossy vegetation gradually appeared in front of them, clinging to the ground.
