Volume 5 Sword Qi Nine Heavens 621 Amano Ancient City
The remaining two spirit horses apparently noticed that their companion had been rounded up, and with an anxious neigh, their speed suddenly increased slightly.
However, the smoke around him had already spread, and a spirit horse still couldn't dodge after all, and was shrouded in the smoke around him, and after a few struggles, he fell weakly.
The other horse was more lucky, and finally before the gray smoke closed, its hind hooves kicked the ground violently, turning into a snow-white horse, and sprang out, but the direction in which it was running was exactly towards Liu Ming.
This spirit horse obviously thought that Liu Ming was also a round-up, and suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out seven or eight cyan wind blades several feet in size, slashing at Liu Ming with a head and face.
Liu Ming frowned, and several black tentacles suddenly appeared on his body, and with a slight flick, these wind blades were swept away.
The spirit horse's body froze, and the demon beast instinctively made it instantly feel Liu Ming's strength, and the sluggishness of the gate also determined its fate.
"Whoosh"!
A large golden net suddenly shot from behind, and in a flash of gold, it covered its body.
The next moment, a figure descended from the sky and landed not far in front of Liu Ming, and after the light converged, a burly man in a golden robe was revealed.
"Haha, thank you for your help. The big man glanced at Liu Ming and smiled very boldly.
"Daoyou is polite, it's just a gesture. Liu Ming said lightly.
He just made a move, and it was indeed just a subconscious defense.
When the big man heard this, he still nodded and smiled. Hit a trick with one hand,
The golden net instantly tightened the spirit horse's tightly wrapping, and was put into a leather bag around his waist with one hand.
Several other people not far away also saw Liu Ming. Suddenly a wary face flew over, one of them was a younger woman. He even pressed his hand on a jade pendant on his waist.
"Thanks to this fellow Daoist just now, I can't be unreasonable to this fellow Daoist. Seeing this, the big man immediately frowned and scolded,
He is the only one in this small team who is in the middle stage of condensation, and the others are only in the early stage.
This is relatively weak among the hunting gangs in the Tianma grassland.
As the leader of this group, the big man is naturally extraordinary, just by the scene where Liu Ming smashed seven or eight wind blades with his gestures just now, he knew that the other party's cultivation was by no means weaker than his own.
"Young people are not sensible, your Excellency is not strange. That's right. Daoyou looked at Mian Sheng, he must have just arrived in this Tianma grassland, are you interested in cooperating and hunting spirit horses together?"
"There are other important things in the future, I'm afraid I can't delay here, I can only thank Daoyou for your kindness. Liu Ming naturally refused.
He didn't come to this Pegasus Grassland for this little spirit stone. If I hadn't been a little curious about this famous spirit horse just now, I wouldn't have stopped here at all.
"That's a shame. In the picture below is far true. In the Fang market near Heihe, it is also a little famous, and if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time. The big man had a look of regret on his face. Still said enthusiastically.
After Liu Ming nodded, he gave his hand and said goodbye directly, turning into a black light again. Continue in the direction of Amano Castle.
Finally, after a few more days of flying, he finally came to a high ground.
Look far away. Not far away, there is a huge city covering an area of 100, and there are many large and small rough buildings in the city. The main castle made of bluestone in the center is thousands of feet high, like a mountain peak, overlooking the grassland.
However, now these buildings, the surface has long been weathered and peeled off, many of them have been broken and collapsed, and you can only see the whole picture of the city from a distance, and you can vaguely see a trace of the city's former prosperity.
According to the records in the classics, the origin of this ancient city can be traced back to more than 10,000 years ago, many people lived in this city, mortal monks had it, and it prospered for a while, but for some reason it unexpectedly declined.
"This is Amano Castle. Liu Ming took the map jade slip off his forehead, his eyes flickered a few times, and he muttered to himself.
At this moment, a man in black drove the clouds out of the city, and seemed to find Liu Ming standing on the high ground not far away, and his face suddenly showed a look of vigilance, and he bypassed it far away and flew away.
Liu Ming didn't care, and after a cursory glance, he withdrew his gaze.
According to the map, although the ancient castle of Amano is now inhabited by the main city, it is not empty, and many monks in the vicinity will use it as a temporary settlement.
With the increasing number of people who come to the grassland to hunt, there are also some places to exchange goods privately in this abandoned ancient city, and naturally it is not called a market to make up for it, and over time, Jin Gezong and Wanshoutan also acquiesced to this phenomenon.
Liu Ming took off into the city, only to find that it was not as desolate as he imagined, and occasionally one or two monks could be seen on the streets of the city, of course, they were all wary of each other, deliberately keeping a distance.
In addition to this, there are even a few grocery stores on the side of the road.
Overall, though, it's an unusually deserted dead city.
Although there were few people on the street, Liu Ming could detect that from some dilapidated stone houses, there were eyes from time to time.
It is no wonder that many passers-by will hide in some abandoned buildings in the city as temporary bases to rest, there are small groups of several people, and there are also solo travelers like him
Liu Ming's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, the situation here was a little different from what he expected.
He immediately flew a little faster, and soon entered the depths of the city, found a more secluded and intact room, and landed nearby.
As soon as Liu Ming entered the house, after looking around for a while, he turned over his hand and took out two sets of array flags, and after laying down two defensive prohibitions, he sat cross-legged and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
With a bang, there was a battle and a fast march along the way, and I haven't had a good rest, and I'm really tired at the moment.
Liu Ming sat in silence all night. It wasn't until the next day that he came back in good spirits. And think about it.
Although the time and place of the birth of the ancient demon relics he got from the Beidou Pavilion was only a general news. However, looking at the situation here, it is clear that this ruin has not yet shown the slightest sign of existence.
In this case, he may have to stay in this ancient city for a while longer.
Liu Ming thought about it, so he decided to go out and find out about the situation in the city.
After a short time, he came to an old street where the grocery stores he saw when he entered the city.
Half an hour later, he walked out of a shop with a solemn face, did not stay outside, and went straight back to his residence.
Able to open a grocery store in such a place. The shopkeepers are not simple people, but at the same time, they are also some people who regard money as their lives, and they spent some spirit stones on him, and they quickly got some information to know.
Now the number of cultivators in the ancient city of Amano is more than double that of usual, and most of them are demonic cultivators who have cultivated demonic exercises.
These people came here for the same purpose as him, they all learned the news that the ancient demon ruins were about to appear through various channels, so they gathered here.
But. This kind of small ancient ruins often appear in the Zhongtian Continent, and it is not too unusual.
Generally small ruins, because it is too long. Most of the prohibitions have been broken. And things such as elixir spiritual weapons, without special prohibition and protection, will lose all spiritual power. It would also become useless, so few high-ranking monks would rarely be interested in such relics.
And the reason why the demon monks gathered here. It's not for the discarded pill artifacts inside, but for the relics after they are born. There may be zĂ i's ancient essence and pure demonic energy inside.
For demonic cultivators, refining demonic qi was thousands of times better than any elixir spiritual weapon. After all, there are not many places on the Zhongtian Continent where you can find pure demonic qi, and even if you are lucky, you can absorb one or two wisps of true demonic qi, which is a great opportunity.
However, compared to ordinary demonic qi, the true demonic qi is rarely discovered and successfully collected in time, and often within one or two hours of the appearance of the ancient ruins, it will be completely dispersed, so the first hour or two of the current life of the ruins is also the time when many demonic cultivators compete fiercely, even if it is a big shot, it is not surprising.
After Liu Ming learned this information, he calmed down, and went to live in the ancient city, no longer going out to cultivate quietly, and waited for this ruin to appear.
With the passage of time and the continuous entry of monks from all walks of life, the ancient city of Amano gradually became chaotic, and one or two crackling sounds could be faintly heard in the distance.
There was even a time when two demon monks fought in a vacant lot near Liu Ming's house, but as long as it didn't affect Liu Ming, they naturally wouldn't interfere.
Half a month later, in another open space in the ancient city of Amano, a young man with a pale face and an extremely handsome appearance stood on top of a broken wall with his hands in his hands, and his blood-colored clothes hunted in the wind.
In front of him, there was a loud "boom", and a large blood cloud suddenly exploded, turning into rolling blood and spreading.
As the blood and qi slowly faded, the five men dressed in black suddenly appeared, but they were all wolves at the moment!
The first of them was bloodied, gasping for breath.
The other four were also ragged, their faces were unusually pale, and they were obviously all injured.
On the ground, where several people were, a large pit of several zhang in size was blasted out.
"Are you convinced?" said the blood-shirted young man lightly.
The five men in black looked at each other for a while, and soon the leader took a few steps forward.
"The five of us shot together, and we couldn't even touch the corner of Your Excellency's clothes, and we deserved to be the famous Blood Emperor. From now on, we are willing to obey the dispatch of the son. As he spoke, the leader bowed down and bowed down.
Seeing this, the four people behind also knelt on the ground.
"Very well, in that case, let's receive the mark of this son. Hearing this, the Blood Emperor revealed a wicked smile, and as soon as his robe was raised, five blood-colored runes flew out and landed on the foreheads of the five people.
