Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Hengduan Mountains
The Hengduan Mountain Range, located in the east of the Qi country and the border of the neighboring country named the Wuji country, stretches for I don't know how many thousands of miles, and you can reach Lingyun Prefecture, one of the nine states, across the Wuji country, and the Yunfu Sect is the first major sect in Lingyun Prefecture.
And if you want to reach the Cloud Fu Sect, you have to cross this Hengduan Mountain Range, and if you want to bypass this continuous mountain, it will take more than half a year.
Even Mu Chen, who didn't want to take risks, could only reluctantly choose to cross the Hengduan Mountain Range, and he also wanted to find a monk to travel with him.
But now is not the same as some time ago when the Cloud Fu Sect recruited disciples, there are many people gathered to go to Lingyun Prefecture, and now there are very few people going to the direction of the Black Chicken Country, they will all be in the inn outside the mountain range, and recruit enough people to set off together.
Mu Chen also waited for a long time, but in the end, he waited for the two monks, and the original intention was to invite them to leave now, but the two insisted on having more people.
Mu Chen didn't want to delay any longer, of course, the two of them also persuaded Mu Chen to wait, but Mu Chen insisted on setting off immediately, and as soon as they changed their initial courteous faces, they thought about ending Mu Chen's murder and treasure on the spot.
Relying on oneself at the fifth level of Qi cultivation and one at the fourth level of Qi training, if you want to kill Mu Chen, it is like playing.
But they never expected that they would be hit all over the ground by Mu Chen's meteor fire rain before they made a move, and the two of them were shocked and knelt down and bowed, shamelessly begging for mercy, saying that they just wanted to try his skills with his junior brother, lest he go to death in vain.
Of course, Mu Chen didn't kill them in the end, he just scraped them up, and then went on his own way.
The two of them are very poor, and they don't have any spirit stone pills, but they get a strange stone bead that is extremely ordinary, and there is no spiritual power fluctuation.
The two of them were afraid that Mu Chen would be annoyed and angry, so they killed them, and boasted about this strange stone bead, saying that this stone bead was the treasure of their small sect, and the two of them stole it, just to go to the Dafang City of the Cloud Fu Sect to sell it for a good price, Mu Chen was suspicious, and he ignored it after putting it in the storage bag.
Half a day later, Mu Chen was already alone, riding a fast horse into the Hengduan Mountains.
The road is not very wide, it can only pass a carriage in one direction, and the potholes and weeds are grown, at a glance, you can see that the people passing by are very rare, the mountains on both sides are all towering cloud cypresses, dense and do not know how many, the sun can only be sprinkled on the road at noon, the cool breeze is vivid, people really shudder.
Mu Chen wanted to pass quickly, but the horse didn't know if he was also scared, and no matter how he whipped, he was rushing forward slowly, which made Mu Chen quite helpless.
Two days later, the sun shone hard through the cracks in the woods on Mu Chen's face, and the faint afterglow showed Mu Chen's exhaustion.
The bloodshot eyes looked around, I don't know how to get his self-proclaimed powerful divine sense, but here it is slowly weakened, and there is a very mysterious place not far away, when his divine sense is in contact, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, and he can't detect anything at all, and the sound of rustling from time to time in the deep forest makes Mu Chen's heart beat faster and has a chilling feeling.
Mu Chen drove the horse slowly and vigilantly, and the nervous heartbeat was particularly obvious in this quiet deep forest.
After a while, the sound was getting closer and closer, Mu Chen hurriedly turned over and dismounted, his throat rolling, and his hand pinched the magic trick ready to attack at any time.
At this moment, with a "whoosh", something flew over Mu Chen's head, Mu Chen was startled, and subconsciously wanted to throw out a meteor shower, but when he looked at it, it was just a squirrel shuttling.
Mu Chen let out a breath of air! Just as he was relieved and ready to continue on his way, at this moment, he dodged sideways, and with a loud "bang", the fast horse was blown apart, and blood rained everywhere.
"Hey, he dodged my attack, which is kind of interesting. A man with a face like dry bones, extremely thin, wearing a wide black cloth cloak, like a large bat, looked at Mu Chen playfully and said.
Mu Chen was surprised, just now from time to time he would release his divine sense to check, although he was suppressed, he could still perceive it far away, only out of that mysterious place, could he be there at that time?
The man in black appeared in his hand with a handful of white bone rulers, and the bone rulers flipped and shot in an instant.
"Poof... Burst... Poof..''
Like rain hitting plantains, there was a dull sound, Mu Chen turned over and stood still, and threw out four meteor fire showers in a row, and the fist-sized fireballs in the sky were all blocked by the rotating bone ruler.
"What kind of spell is this. The man in black asked in surprise.
Mu Chen saw that something was wrong, his heart sank, he didn't say much, and the seal in his hand was fast.
One, two, three..... In one breath, Mu Chen threw out eight more meteor fire showers, and the dense fireballs popped, all hitting the air shield formed by the bone ruler.
"Smack"
The bone ruler magic weapon, after the aura shield formed by the Dao crack, burst in response, the man in black looked at Mu Chen in disbelief, and shouted: "Who are you, just the fourth layer of qi cultivation can actually break my magic weapon defense, it seems that I underestimate you, don't use some means, you don't know the real interests of the foundation building monk." ”
"Boom... Rumble... Boom..."
The place where Mu Chen was standing just now was hit by the white afterimage of the Daodao, and suddenly the rocks were splashed, and a ravine several feet long appeared.
Mu Chen's eyes flashed.
With a dashing leap, he dodged this fierce blow, and suddenly urged the magic trick, his whole body was full of white true qi, his eyes were red, and his body instantly rose an inch.
In an instant, a huge fireball gathered, with an unstoppable momentum, and instantly pounced on the man in black.
The man in black's pupils shrank.
The toes turned around little by little, and they flew away, disappearing in an instant like a wisp of phantom, just as they fled with joy in their hearts.
"Boom..."
With a loud bang, the fireball was strangely like a maggot on the tarsal bones, and it turned around and bombarded the man in black heavily.
"Poof..."
The man in black had a sweet throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his body flew upside down like a kite with a broken string, smashing all the big trees in its pass, and then slammed it to the ground.
Mu Chen looked vigilantly at the black-clothed man who flew out upside down, as if he had collapsed, his hands on the ground and half kneeling and panting.
The man in black slowly sat up with difficulty. Licking the blood on his lips, he looked dazed and surprised. stared at Mu Chen hatefully, wanting to block Mu Chen in his heart.
But he couldn't lift up the slightest aura, so he immediately took out a medium-grade spirit stone from the storage bag to restore his mana.
Then he said mockingly: "Actually hiding my cultivation to fool me, what kind of cultivation is Your Excellency, why do you want to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, is it possible that you want to eat black and eat black?"
Mu Chen didn't answer, and then he was about to attack again.
"Wait... I have something to say, I am willing to compensate for offending Your Excellency in ignorance!" said the man in black eagerly.
Mu Chen smiled faintly and pretended to stop attacking temporarily.
"Your Excellency, listen to me, I am willing to buy my life, as long as you don't kill me, I will give all my savings over the years..."
"Bump..."
Before the words fell, the two spells collided together, and the man in black spurted out another mouthful of blood, splashing everywhere on the ground, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of Mu Chen's mouth.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the last ray of sunshine had disappeared, and the man in black smiled miserably and said: "I didn't expect them to be all ghosts, it seems that today is either you die or I die." ”
Mu Chen's figure flickered a few times, and he instantly came to a short distance from the man in black, and said lightly: "You don't care what I cultivate, if you want to delay time, absorb the mana of the spirit stone, forget it, don't waste my spirit stone." ”
"Boom... Rumble... Boom..."
The meteor rain emitted by Mu Chen hit the place where the man in black was sitting just now, making a roar.
However, the place was already empty, and there was still the shadow of the man in black.
The man in black laughed in the air.
"Do you think that a foundation-building monk is really so easy to kill, suffer death!"
Mu Chen frowned, released his divine sense to lock it in, and saw that the foundation building monk was scurrying around like a ghost.
"Whoosh..."
The white bone ruler, I don't know where it came from, hit Mu Chen's belly with a 'poof', pierced a teacup-sized blood hole, and brought up a blood flower, Mu Chen stumbled and flew out, fell to the ground hard, splashed a burst of dust, and then fainted in front of him.
"Hahaha... Ignorant child, I will destroy you. The man in black came to Mu Chen in front of him in a few flashes, looked at Mu Chen playfully and laughed.
Laugh! As soon as he raised his right hand, the white bone ruler suddenly turned around again and shot towards Mu Chen's head.
