Chapter 36: Someone is Building the Foundation
In the mountains and forests, fierce battles are raging.
A squad of more than 100 monks was being attacked by wolves, and four or five hundred fierce wolves surrounded the monks from all sides and launched a stormy onslaught.
The wolves have always acted in groups, and they are even more skilled in cooperating with each other than the monks, and they are almost equivalent to a real army.
The white demon wolf led by the white demon wolf is huge and fierce, hiding behind the wolves and waiting for the opportunity to attack.
With each assault, one monk fell under its fangs, and two of the early monks in the team were killed by it.
The monks were back to back, struggling to support themselves with their shields, but the light of the shields was so faint that they could perish at any time.
At the most critical time, reinforcements finally came, although there were only more than 20 people, but all of them were extraordinary, and they all had the cultivation of the late stage of foundation building.
In an instant, twenty or thirty demon wolves fell under the swords of the monks who came to help.
The white demon wolf led by him couldn't see it well, howled, and turned around to run away.
A figure descended from the sky and landed behind it, and the sword light like a match shrouded the demon wolf.
The white demon wolf's body retreated, but the sword light chased after it like a shadow, and the speed was not below it.
Finally, the demon wolf had no way to retreat, and with a roar of rage, several wind blades rushed towards the sword light.
"Good beast, you have actually cultivated the demon law!" The monk who chased and killed the demon wolf was Xiong Xian, the elder of the Iron Sword Gate, and after praising it, the magic sword did not stop, and scattered several wind blades with a blow, and the sword momentum was slashed at the head of the demon wolf, deeply embedded.
The monks who came to help were strong, and the besieged monk team also took the opportunity to rush out, plus the leader of the demon wolf was killed by Xiong Xian, and the wolves finally fled.
Night falls in the mountains and forests, and there is silence all around.
Xiong Xian, who had just made a great achievement, had no intention of sleeping, he stood on the top of the tree and looked in the direction of the grassland, worrying about the people in Tiejianmen.
Finally, he came to a tent, and the lights were still on.
"What? Do you want to go to the grassland?" Qian Ziwang, the deacon of the Wuzhou Chamber of Commerce, asked suspiciously, "Now is the time when the war is raging, and I am afraid that your departure at this time will make the big shopkeeper unhappy." ”
Xiong Xian sighed and said worriedly: "Little master, they went to the Lonely Mountain, who knows if there are powerful demon beasts in the Lonely Mountain." The little master is the only bloodline of my Iron Sword Gate, if he has an accident, my Iron Sword Gate will be finished......
Deacon Qian, in the next few days, every day is worried, restless, for fear that the little boss will have an accident, if you don't go to see, it is really difficult to feel at ease, the big shopkeeper also hopes that you can explain a thing or two. ”
Qian Ziwang thought for a while and sighed: "Okay, who let us have a relationship, and I don't want anything to happen to Zhang......
Well, I'll give you three days, and I'll take care of it for you. Brother Xiong, what you didn't say, your loyalty to the sect is admirable. ”
"Thank you, Deacon Qian!" Xiong Xian was overjoyed, and he clenched his fists and thanked him again and again.
"Senior brother, I'll go with you!" said Elder Zhu Kun.
Xiong Xian shook his head: "Senior brother, we are now employed by the Chamber of Commerce, and it has been a little too long for me to leave alone when the battle is fierce, if you leave again, it will be a bit unusual."
Senior brother, although our monk army now has the upper hand, I feel a little uneasy in my heart. Because the snake demon king has not been eliminated, but there has been no movement.
Senior brother, you must be careful after I leave, everything is based on your own safety, and don't be in the limelight. It's true that we are employed, but there is no need to risk our lives for some spirit stones. ”
Zhu Kun said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I know it in my heart!"
After a few more words, Xiong Xian took advantage of the night to set up camp and disappeared into the vast night.
Xiong Xian has reached the peak of foundation building, and he is only one step away from Yudan. Of course, the pinnacle of foundation building and Jindan seem to be very close, but it seems to be separated by a moat, and many people can't step through this hurdle in their lifetime, and there are very few people who can successfully get married.
For example, Lin Shan, the old head of the Iron Sword Gate, has been cultivating at the peak of foundation building for decades, and has tried to form a pill several times, but has failed again and again, and has spent all the savings of the Iron Sword Gate. In his later years, he was even more desperate to get married, and ended up dead.
However, since he has the cultivation of the peak of foundation building, he is already considered a high-level combat power among the monks, although Xiong Xian's cultivation cannot defeat a Jindan stage demon beast like the Demon Snake King, but ordinary demon beasts are helpless against him.
It was precisely because of his strong strength that Xiong Xian had the courage to cross the mountains and forests and enter the grassland alone, to visit the Tiejianmen and the others.
Set off at night, and in the afternoon of the next day, Xiong Xian was already standing on the edge of the grassland, looking at the lonely mountain more than a hundred miles away.
The reason why Tiejianmen was sent to Gushan was to be punished by the big shopkeeper Li Pingbo, and Xiong Xian naturally knew this. Xiong Xian knew even more that it was impossible for there to be no demon beasts on this vast grassland, although the number of people in the Iron Sword Gate was nearly two hundred, there was no one with real top-level combat power, and if he encountered a powerful demon beast, it would be very troublesome, which was why Xiong Xian was uncertain and had to come and see.
The empty grassland is extremely quiet, and in order to speed up and save energy, Xiong Xian uses the magic talisman. Note that this is not the kind of beginner-level magic talisman drawn by little Lori Lin Xi, but a second-order talisman, each worth a medium-grade spirit stone, and after using it, it is as fast as a galloping horse, and it can last for two hours.
There are too many obstacles in the mountains and forests, and this kind of magic talisman is not very convenient to use, but this empty grassland is the best place to use it. In order to meet the little master as soon as possible, Xiong Xian endured heartache and used this expensive talisman.
Fortunately, thanks to the use of the Divine Talisman, Xiong Xian was able to rush to the Lonely Mountain before dark.
He didn't find anything unusual along the way, and when he rushed to the foot of the lonely mountain and met a few Iron Sword Sect monks who were picking spirit grass, Xiong Xian learned that the little master had actually defeated dozens of eagle vultures and defeated the lonely mountain, which surprised him.
When he knew that Xiong Xian was an elder of the Iron Sword Sect, the monks told him in detail about the process of fighting all the way.
When he heard that less than fifty of the nearly 200 monks had died, Xiong Xian sighed deeply.
When he heard that the sword spirit fire phoenix appeared and killed the Eagle Vulture King with one blow, Xiong Xian was shocked. As an elder of the Iron Sword Sect, Xiong Xian naturally knew that there was a Spirit Fire Phoenix sealed inside the Spirit Weapon Iron Sword, but didn't it mean that only the head of the sect could drive the Fire Phoenix when he reached the Jindan cultivation?
Xiong Xian was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly asked, "Little master, is he on the mountain peak now?"
A strange smile appeared on the face of the monk who was asked: "Little master, he is hatching eggs." ”
With a full stomach full of questions, Xiong Xian quickly climbed towards the top of the lonely mountain, but when he climbed halfway up the mountain, he suddenly stopped, looking at the top of the mountain with a shocked look.
At this moment, Xiong Xian felt that countless spiritual qi were gathering towards the top of the mountain like crazy, and the top of the mountain was full of light and the wind and clouds were changing!
