Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Nine-Petaled Golden Lotus
At night, in the jungle of the Mountain of Death, the scarlet moonlight was accompanied by a thick demon mist.
There was a rustling sound on the ground, and I don't know what poisonous insects were gathering to crawl.
On the treetops, a three-tailed demon fox with red eyes scanned back and forth, carefully observing the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, the thorns on her neck stood up, and the moonlight sprinkled down the rows of colorful centipedes on the ground, which were crawling up the trees.
On the trunk of the tree, Chen Changan meditated to heal his wounds, his Purple Mansion suffered a heavy blow, and his aura was uncontrollable.
If it was an ordinary monk, he would have exploded and died, but Chen Changan's spiritual power had no power, so it didn't hurt him.
After a period of recuperation, the cracks in the Purple Mansion slowly healed, reshaping the thirty-six Zhou Tian.
Chen Changan's eyes opened as soon as he brushed it, and immediately felt extremely uncomfortable, so he hurriedly sacrificed the Shengshan bowl and covered himself and Qingle inside.
Centipedes, covered with colorful carapaces, crawled around outside the bowl of the mountain.
Those thousands of feet and tentacles made people shudder, and their teeth gnawed at the Shengshan bowl and made a clicking sound, which made Chen Changan feel cold in the back of his head.
"Where the hell is this place?" asked Chen Changan stubbornly.
"There is a mountain of death here, and they will kill you, and they dare not come in here. Qingle saw him wake up, his tense expression relaxed slightly, but he still stared at the outside.
She was not afraid of these centipedes in her heart, but there were too many of them, which also made her a little panicked.
"A mere centipede, you can't bite my bowl at all. Chen Changan didn't know whether to cheer himself up or comfort Qingle, and said with a smile.
It's just that there is a little reluctance in the laughter, and this kid has no bottom in his heart.
Suddenly, all the centipedes stopped gnawing, as if they were afraid of something.
None of them dared to move, and the whole forest was unusually silent.
A pair of green eyes lit up in the forest, and where they walked, all the beasts crawled, not daring to make a sound.
Take a closer look at the monster's human-faced bird body, with two green snakes hanging from its ears, hanging on its earlobes, dangling and spitting out letters.
The eyes glowing green shone from time to time. Its feet seemed to be dangling, and it didn't make the slightest movement when it walked on the ground, and when it looked closely, it was found that the soles of its feet were also two small snakes, all red and twisted forward.
Chen Changan also held his breath tightly, looking at this monster, he felt a sense of danger, and he couldn't breathe anymore.
Qingle next to him, on the contrary, is fine, even such a monster, it is difficult to suppress the most spiritual nine-tailed demon fox in the bloodline.
Fortunately, this monster has no interest in Chen Changan, if this thing sees a living thing, it will be killed, and it is estimated that it will be exhausted to death in the forest.
"What the hell is this place?"
Chen Changan asked Cangtian speechlessly, hating the group of bastards who forced him into this situation.
And when he fled, he vaguely heard that the bald donkey was going to find Xuanwei's trouble.
From the time he went to the Taixu Palace and stepped into the world of cultivating immortals, among the people he met, he was either withered and indifferent, or he was selfish.
Only the Aoki patriarch of Qingqiu Mountain and Uncle Xuanwei of Taihua Sect gave him some good feelings, but at the moment, he has no strength at all to protect Xuanwei.
"No matter what, no matter what, I have to go back and save people. ”
Chen Changan said secretly in his heart, and soon his thoughts were pulled back by the gnawing sound that sounded again, and the colorful centipedes around him began to bite his Shengshan bowl again.
Qingle seemed to feel a little uncomfortable, and wrinkled his nose: "Brother Chang'an, let's go out and kill them clean." ”
Chen Changan hesitated, these insects are highly poisonous at first glance, and this thing is dense, I don't know how many, if it is turned over by poison, it is estimated that even the bones will be gnawed away.
At this time, suddenly the trees shook violently, and the centipedes scattered in all directions.
Chen Changan secretly screamed badly, could it be that some monster came out again?
Qingle pointed to the top, and saw that on top of this giant tree, there was a bird's nest.
Next to the nest was a strange bird, about the size of a child, with a pair of pointed beaks, like hooks.
Its eyes were particularly sharp, staring at a yellow viper coiled over a tree.
Birds and snakes are really natural enemies, and this looks like a low-profile version of the dragon and phoenix fight.
Chen Changan didn't have the slightest idea to stay here and watch, but Qingle was interested, and his red eyes turned around.
Chen Changan vaguely remembered, as if Pheasant Feather had said that for their demons, plundering the inner pill of other demons and swallowing the spiritual energy were the two ways of cultivation.
It's cruel...
"Let's have a praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches, and when they are both defeated, let's go again. Chen Changan said cautiously.
When Qingle fled for his life on his back, he also had injuries on his body, I don't know if he was beaten by those bird monks or injured in the forest.
---
About a quarter of an hour later, a broken bowl was in the mountain of death, and he fled for his life.
After the strange bird killed Huang Kui, he became more and more courageous, chasing one person and one fox who were waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and fled in embarrassment.
Chen Changan scolded while fleeing: "Lu Ping, this bastard, didn't leave early or late, and fled when he was needed." ”
Without the blessing of the light body seal, this strange bird chased Sheng Shanwan and pecked randomly, and soon a hole appeared.
Qingle lay on his back and shouted: "Run, Brother Chang'an, run faster.... Woo woo, I don't want to die. ”
Chen Changan panicked, running around in this mountain of death shrouded in the night, it was estimated that it was something that the Heavenly Tribulation Monk did not dare to do.
Pushing aside a bush full of dead vines, a majestic nine-rank lotus platform suddenly opened up in front of him.
The broken large pieces of jade are overlapped and scattered, and there is not a single flat ground within a radius of ten zhang, and there is not even a blue brick with a slight shape as far as the eye can see.
The fire burning on the ground is very familiar, it is the true fire of samadhi outside.
Chen Changan opened his mouth to shout, but he couldn't make a sound, and Qingle beside him was pale and dumbfounded.
Suddenly, a stone lotus not far away collapsed.
Chen Changan's eardrums were shattered several times, buzzing and chaotic, and then the second and third bangs came one after another.
He has seen Yunyin's two-petaled golden lotus, and he has also seen the four-petaled treasure mirror, and Kuxuan is a six-petaled golden lotus.
But the nine-petal golden lotus is the first time I have seen it, but unfortunately the first side is the last side.
This golden lotus seems to have been supported for a long time, and Chen Changan and Qingle are the last straws that overwhelm it.
The nine-petal lotus platform collapsed with a bang, and below it was a bottomless abyss.
The two of them were pulled into the darkness by the huge force.
Chen Changan couldn't even tell whether he was faint or awake, dead or alive, and he didn't know how long he had been in the dark.
Time and all five senses seemed to be slowly fading, and suddenly there was a "bump!", and the back hit the stone, and the sand and dust fell.
"It hurts!"
Chen Changan stretched out his hand and touched it, it was fluffy, and he was immediately relieved, but fortunately, Qingle had been shrunk in his arms.
