Chapter 34: The Rift
This time, the Wu tribe moved very quickly, and they couldn't even take care of their habits of rising day and night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe big head man quickly gathered his men and set off with many monks from the Immortal Alliance.
This time, those who went included Xue Bufan and Ai Qinglan, the two strongest combat forces in the Dan period, especially Ai Qinglan, who was already a half-step Yuan Shen's cultivation, except for Wang Qi and Lu Xiaoqian, no one could defeat her in the Dan period.
In addition, Chen Feng, Tong Xu and other first-rate players in the Dan period naturally have to keep up.
Since there were no primordial monks in this group, everyone basically planned to bring all the combat power with them. Except for the two disciples of Shanhe City who were relatively weak in combat power and the three Tianlingling monks who had other empirical tasks and couldn't leave at all, everyone poured out.
On the Wu side, the lineup is equally luxurious.
The person who led the team was a big medicine witch.
Due to Ai Qinglan's interference. All the medicine witch apprentices of this generation survived and became medicine witches. For the Wu people, this is too important. They had even celebrated the event with a banquet that was even more grand than "welcoming the gods".
Chen Feng was even a little worried about whether the Great Medicine Witch would come back if he left this time. If it weren't for Chen Feng's secret crossing into a flame of life, he would have died. Now the old Wu tribe is on the verge of collapse and will die at any time. This kind of body fighting with the heavenly beast is obviously unwise.
However, the Great Medicine Witch used one sentence to dispel Chen Feng's thoughts.
"Friend, I have come to the end of my life, and my mission has been accomplished, so let me add another 'bring back a jar of holy ointment' to the glory of my life. "I'd love to see the Celestial Beast." ”
The old man smiled calmly. His mission has been accomplished, and among his disciples, there are five who have the qualifications of medicine witches. Now, he really doesn't have anything to worry about. What the tribe expected of him, he fulfilled all. Now, he had laid down his burdens and was beginning to follow his curiosity to see the legendary beast.
- Perhaps, you can bring back some more materials to make the holy ointment.
For the old man's decision, the big head man was persuaded. However, he saw that the Great Medicine Witch had completely let go of his burden, and finally did not object.
"Bosso!" Finally, the big man called his son: "Finish this journey with your teacher, like a student!"
In addition to showing respect for his old friend, he also has a meaning.
Someone will always bring the holy oil back to the tribe.
Bosso shuddered. Tatsukaze, who was familiar with the poet's character, originally thought he was going to refuse. However, Bosso finally nodded with a complicated expression.
Chen Feng quietly asked, "Why? This time it is really dangerous." ”
"I also want to go see the Heavenly Beast......" Bosso replied reluctantly, although his voice was low, "When I was a child, the teacher ...... The Medicine Witch told me the story of the Heavenly Beast...... I'm curious. ”
Eventually, they took advantage of the darkness of night to set off.
This day is the rare day of "double moon superposition" in Tianying. The purple satellite "Su" completely overlaps with the red satellite "Bao". The red ones are closer than the purple ones, but they're about the same size. Bao completely blocked Sue, but the light reflected by Su was still there. Hazy purple light pierced through the red moonlight, setting a purple border for the red moon.
It's just that, due to the relationship between the shadows of the sky, the Bao is also half blocked.
It is precisely because of the heavy obscurations that this night, the sky looks extraordinarily dark. The stars in the sky were finally clearer.
For the Terrans, this is still a strange starry sky.
However, compared to half a year ago, this starry sky has something different. It was a green line, almost exactly the same as the ecliptic line of Tianwu. It looks very thin, but it's also very bright. From the ground view, it looks like a short arc that spans half a degree of the sky.
No star stands out as much as it does.
This is the line of defense made by the Immortal League. It is said that if it were not for the lack of time, this line of defense would have been able to penetrate even this 180-degree dome, and even cover the entire ecliptic.
The old medicine witch was amazed at this spectacle.
Because the moonlight is too strong and obscures the starlight, the Wu people rarely observe the stars, let alone use the stars to predict bad luck. Thanks to this, the old man was able to look at all this with a normal heart. And when he learned that this was "the work of the gods", he did not continue to ask.
At the beginning, except for Bosso, who was carried by Tatsukaze, everyone else flew on their own. After walking for a few hours, he probably felt that it was too slow, Ai Qinglan wrapped the Great Medicine Witch with his retreat, while Xue Bufan took Bosso, and a group of people moved forward at full speed.
Where has Bosso seen such a battle. He curled up on all fours, breathing carefully and slowly to keep himself calm. On the contrary, it was the great medicine witch, who was not frightened, but also asked Ai Qinglan for the kung fu of flying.
Although it is also in the Dan period, the Immortal Alliance Monk is much faster than the Great Medicine Witch. Before dawn, they were already in the place.
"The Great Rift Valley of the Strong" - this is the scientific name given by the monks of Shanhe City.
However, when he really saw this, Chen Feng felt that the so-called "Great Rift Valley of the Strong" was not worthy of the name at all.
The other end of the cliff is infinitely close to the horizon, almost fitting together. Looking at the sides again, you can't see the end at all. And in the middle of the rift, there is darkness and nothing.
The land beneath their feet seemed to be an island of peace in the darkness of the endless vastness.
"Stop, children of the gods. The Great Medicine Witch said, "Let's stop." It is only during the day that I can lure out the Celestial Beasts. ”
The crowd followed his advice and stopped.
Ai Qinglan and the others whispered: "Does that so-called ant clan have the habit of rising and sleeping at night?"
Moonset Ruri was right next to her. I don't know why, but she came along. However, she still didn't say anything.
Since there were no large trees in this area, the arboreal Wu people felt uncomfortable, so the great medicine witch simply levitated and commanded Bosso: "Okay boy, boil my favorite millet and mix it with sweet sprouts and pickled seedling roots." Take out the wine, and ...... And also...... Ah, there's a little bit of an iron horn chrysalis, so let's cook it too. ”
Bosso's facial expression was a little sad. This may be the last meal of the Great Medicine Witch.
Xue Bufan and Chen Feng surrounded the fire and said in a low voice: "Pass it on, if there is anything in a while, you must listen to this old man's words." More and more, I feel that this is not easy. ”
"Definitely. Chen Feng thought as he roasted the fire, "They don't care about 'immortality' at all, they don't look like ordinary monks. In addition, the status of the inheritors of knowledge is abnormally high. The big head has the best knotting method in the whole clan, and the big medicine witch controls the specific knowledge......"
"It's like a system that was built to survive. Xue Bufan looked at the bonfire.
A piece of firewood exploded just in time, bursting out a handful of sparks.
It was extinguished.
"That is, you suspect that this is actually some kind of magic-protected sanctuary, and then, this is essentially a survivor colony in the wasteland?"
"They seem to have forgotten all that. Xue Bufan said: "This is what I can't understand the most." Unless they die for a whole generation, civilization is completely broken, or ......"
"Is this planned? Are they actually waiting for civilization to recover?"
The discussion between the two was ultimately inconclusive.
After waiting for a few more hours, the genius dawned. Zhu Jiamei checked the local "forum" and was very happy to find that their group was still making the fastest progress. Most of the other groups have not yet organized a hunt.
It took another hour for the sun to rise.
Since everyone is on the west side of the "Great Rift Valley", the sun on the east side does not illuminate the opposite side. On the contrary, the black shadow of the cliff still obscures the scenery below. The Great Medicine Witch cheered himself up, lay on the edge of the cliff and examined it carefully, and after a while, he pointed down and said, "There! Go there!"
What the Great Medicine Witch was pointing at was a huge ...... Plants? It looks like it's sticking out of the cliff, it's a little bit like a root, it's a little bit like a vine. It's just that it's too long, and it stretches all the way into the darkness, where it's not visible to the naked eye. Unless it was inherently harder than a high-tier artifact, it was simply not enough to support it due to its proportional length.
The crowd fell on the vine. Only then did Chen Feng realize that this vine was very thick, even wider than the general road in Shenzhou, and it was enough for a carriage to pass. It's just that the tangled root system makes it crapled and very difficult to walk on.
Chen Feng also felt the familiar essence of grass and trees. He stepped on the roots under his feet and asked in a low voice in Terran language, "The Tree of St. Ann?"
Ai Qinglan used her mana to ingest a leaf, looked at it for a while, and was sure: "It's the Saint Ann Tree." ”
If it weren't for the same leaves and the same essence of plants and trees, ordinary people would never think that this was a sacred tree. These are basically two plants.
Chen Feng even suspected that this section of the root was the same as the Sheng'an tree in the Wu settlement.
This is definitely not a normal plant. No normal plant grows like this.
The Great Medicine Witch emphasized, "Listen, children of the gods, you may have great power, but the Celestial Beasts also come from the heavens, and they are demons that can destroy the entire world. Except for those I have trapped, you must not attack and attack. ”
Someone wondered, "Why don't you lure here?"
"This place is too close to our homeland, and although the Heavenly Beast is a Rui Beast and a Holy Beast, it will only bring destruction. "We have to go further," he said. ”
With that, he followed the vine and climbed towards the shadow cast by the cliff on the other side. (To be continued.) )
