Chapter 69: The Night Forest

As soon as Jiang Shang mentioned the distribution of forces in the world, and the various secrets in the sect, his usually slightly wooden expression immediately changed greatly, and he became radiant and gushing.

"The general trend of the world is that the so-called masters have come out in large numbers, each showing their own style!"

Jiang Shang said word by word like a storyteller.

"Our entire chaotic world, the big forces are divided into three levels from high to low, and the top existence is the five supreme gods, the five supreme gods, East Zhurong, West Gongming, South Gonggong, North Chiyou, and Zhongxingtian, all of them are god-like characters, you know, the mountains are uplifted!"

Jiang Shang said this, with a look of a little fan brother.

"The second-class forces are the twelve main gods, these twelve, some are overlords, some are the ancestors of the big sect, some are the local tyrants, and of course, there are also a few who are the lonely and enigmatic figures! The ancestor of our horse temple is one of the twelve main gods!"

Lu Jian asked curiously, "These twelve main gods, can Brother Lu explain in detail?"

"No problem, the twelve main gods represent the twelve zodiac signs, namely the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. The horse temple is the ancestor of the horse god Ma Wantang. ”

"And what about the other eleven?"

"The eleven are Rat Shendao, Red Bull Hall, Flying Tigers, Bugs Bunny, Black Dragon Society, Big Snake, Sheephorn Peak, Heart Ape Realm, Chicken Ming Mountain, Roaring Sky Dog, and Li Dazui!"

Jiang Shang said a large list of names in one breath, and talked eloquently, which has the potential to guide the country.

Lu Jian listened a little loudly, and he couldn't remember these many people.

Jiang Shang saw Lu Quan's expression, and he was even more amused: "Actually, there are many songs to remember them, such as, the Rat God Sect, the Horse Temple, and the Ten Thousand Horses Galloping Huyan Dao." It is talking about the Huyan Dao of the Rat God Sect and the Ma Wantang of the Horse God Temple. I'll tell you about that later. ”

Lu Jian nodded, and said with admiration: "Brother Jiang is really well-read, he knows so much!"

Jiang Shang was very useful, and said with a smile: "This is what is the same, there are still many secret anecdotes, I will talk about it slowly in the future! This is the first-class forces that are attached to some of the above big forces, some independent sects, etc., such as the Chuanzhong Pu family, our Dongshan Jiang family, the Danjie Han Jin Sect, the Fumen Fuyao Fengyunqing Cave, the Sword Qi Sect Jin Bing Guan, etc. ”

Hearing Han Jinzong's name, Lu Jian clenched his fists vigorously.

Jiang Shang clapped his hands and said, "The rest is to wait again, there is nothing to say!"

Lu Jian secretly wrote down what Jiang Shang said, and then asked suspiciously: "Then Brother Jiang himself is in a big family, why did he come here to join other sects?"

When Jiang Shang heard this, he put away the smug look on his face, and sighed: "It's not that my family is just a small branch, and I can't enjoy the resources in the family, I think that Puning is also like me, and his brother Pujin is too dazzling." ”

Lu Jian couldn't understand the rules of these big family gate valves, so he couldn't interject into it.

At the mention of himself, Jiang Shang lost interest in small talk and slept alone.

Lu Jian shook his head, thinking about Jiang Shang's analysis of the forces in the world, it was also a little heavy, after all, he and Zhu Rong, Han Jinzong, Dongmen Guard, and Puning all had some big or small festivals, especially the Han Jin Sect, the slaughter master, that is a mortal enemy who will never turn back.

After Lu Jian lay down, he couldn't sleep for a long time, he wanted to make himself strong as soon as possible, because there were many strong enemies waiting for him in front of him.

Early the next morning, Qiu Xiong came over to gather everyone.

"Let me tell you about the rules for recruiting new disciples in my horse temple: after the entrance assessment, it is the newcomer inspection period, which lasts for 7 days, and several tasks must be completed. ”

Qiu Xiong's eyes looked at everyone fiercely.

When everyone heard that the assessment might not be eliminated and go home, they were a little worried.

Qiu Xiong waved his hand and said: "You don't have to be too nervous, these tasks are all to observe your qualifications, potential, and what you are good at, so that you can use which hall you will be assigned to in the future as a basis, so the task will not be difficult." This first task is to go to the dark night forest and catch a skill monster, and the higher the level of the skill monster caught, the higher the rating. ”

"It's actually a skill monster?" After listening to Qiu Xiong's words, Jiang Shang's face was cloudy, and he muttered to himself.

Qiu Xiong heard him and asked, "Do you know what a skill monster is?"

Jiang Shang looked embarrassed and said, "Back to Hall Master Qiu, I have seen the introduction of this monster from ancient books, so I am curious, there is such a thing in this vicinity!"

Qiu Xiong said to Jiang Shang: "Since you know, you can introduce it to everyone."

Jiang Shang knew that Qiu Xiong was also assessing him, and he unconsciously perked up and said: "It is recorded in the book that in the Forest of Dark Night, there are strange creatures, this creature contains Dan in its body, and it has attributes, and if you get it, you can have relevant skill attributes!"

Qiu Xiong nodded, his face showed a strange look and said: "This dark night forest has always been a secret in my door, few people know it, I didn't expect you to know so much, yes, as you said, this dark night forest is in our Tangshan Mountain." ”

Jiang Shang looked surprised, and everyone else was also surprised, there were even monsters with skill attributes, it was really strange in the world.

Qiu Xiong said to everyone: "This dark night forest is not far from here, over the years, my door has also regarded the dark night forest as a forbidden place, prohibiting random hunting, only the annual new recruit day, will be opened." But that skill monster is extremely timid and cautious, so the duration of this mission is three days, and after three days, gather here to evaluate the degree of completion of the task. ”

After a brief introduction to the rules, Qiu Xiong led everyone to walk along a secret door in the courtyard to the back mountain.

After walking for a long time on a rugged mountain road, I saw that the surrounding trees were getting denser and taller, and suddenly, there was an open field in front of me, and there was only a long stone beam between the two mountains, and on both sides were bottomless canyons.

Qiu Xiong took the lead in walking on the stone beam, and everyone cautiously followed.

The stone beam is extremely narrow, only a few steps wide, walking on the stone beam, all sides are open, the mountain wind blows, the timid people dare not stand upright.

Although everyone was a cultivator, they were also trembling before the creation of such a miraculous work of nature, and they did not dare to look left and right, only moving slowly in small steps.

Lu Jian saw that Jiang Shang's face in front of him was pale, his legs trembled, and it was extremely difficult to take a step, so he gently stretched out a hand, reached under his armpit, and supported him.

Jiang Shang grinned and reluctantly thanked him.

Lu Jian took a step sideways, walked in front of Jiang Shang, and then said to Jiang Shang in a low voice: "You hold my shoulder, try not to look at the sides, only look ahead, and follow my steps." ”

Jiang Shang nodded with difficulty and took a deep breath.

In this way, the whole team passed the stone beam extremely slowly.

When he walked to the opposite mountain, Jiang Shang would have almost not sat on the ground if he hadn't been supported by Lu Press.

Three or four of the people who traveled with him were also in a cold sweat, and their legs trembled.

Qiu Xiong looked at everyone's performance coldly and didn't speak.

After a little slowdown, the group continued on their way, and although the mountain path became more and more difficult, it was much more comfortable than the terrifying stone beams.

Soon, the surrounding trees turned an eerie black color, and they were all tall and dense trees.

As soon as you enter this black forest, it is like entering the night, and in broad daylight, you can hardly see the people on the other side.

There was no light in the entire forest, except for a faint glow from some plants.

At this time, Qiu Xiong's voice came from the front, "This is the edge of the Dark Night Forest, and if you walk a mile further, you will enter the Deep Night Forest, and there is a temporary rest stop near here for you to rest." ”

Sure enough, after walking a few more steps, I faintly saw some black triangular shadows, obviously tents.

Qiu Xiong and the others gathered together, pointed to the depths of the forest and said: "Follow this direction for a few hundred steps to really enter the Dark Night Forest, the skill monsters are distributed among them, the more monsters sink into the forest, the higher the level, the higher the level of Neidan!"

He looked at the crowd again and said, "The other four groups are stationed half a mile away from us, and after entering the deep forest, they will definitely meet, and you can cooperate or fight in it, but you are not allowed to hurt people's lives." A few of our team leaders will come inside from time to time to observe you, but will not interfere with you, unless there is a very dangerous or serious violation. ”

Qiu Xiong looked around at everyone and said, "Do you understand?"

"Got it!"

"Okay, in three days, we'll meet here. Let's go now, and you're free to form a team!"

Several people in the team looked at each other, and after discussing in a low voice, three of them formed a team and set off first.

Lu Jian thanked the invitation of the two of them and wanted to enter the forest alone.

However, seeing that Jiang Shang was pitiful and had no one to form a team, he hesitated for a moment, and then said to him: "Brother Jiang, would you like to team up with me?"

Jiang Shang was relieved, but he showed a very reluctant look on his face and said, "It's okay, I can just explain it to Brother Lu!"

Lu Jian smiled slightly and said, "Yes, with Brother Jiang by my side, I will grow a lot of knowledge!"

One after another, in groups or alone, everyone walked towards the depths of the black forest.

The huge Black Forest, like a huge monster squatting, looked coldly at the prey that walked into its mouth.

Lu Jian and Jiang Shang slowly tried to move forward, because the visibility was too low, Jiang Shang wanted to hold Lu Quan's hand several times, but he was embarrassed to let go.

Lu Jian saw his nervous expression, so he broke off a branch and let Jiang Shang hold it.

Jiang Shang was a little embarrassed, but he was really afraid of the unknown darkness, so he reached out and grabbed the branch.

The further Lu Jian went, the more he felt the strangeness of this forest.

First of all, there are very few other plants in this forest, only the moss that glows.

Then there was no sound in the forest, no birds, no deer, no sound of life.

Yes, it's just a dead silence.
