Chapter 001: Panic and Panic Encounter
The vast mountain range spans east and west, and has survived for eternity, forming a natural barrier, blocking the north and south, and isolating the so-called barbarism and civilization.
The north is cold and barren, and the people are poor, so it is naturally classified as barbaric, while the south is warm and productive, and the people are rich, so they naturally return to civilization.
There is a unique area in the eastern section of the mountain range, with a group of peaks and clouds, with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. The clouds rise from the mountains at all times, straight to the sky, vast and magnificent, looking at it from afar, like a curtain covering the sky, it is really a rare wonder for the ages.
However, cultivators prefer to believe that it is a miracle left over from ancient times, and there are many people who come to venture to explore, but no one dares to easily break into that cloud curtain, because for many years, all those who venture into it have gone and never returned, just like the evaporation of the world, there is no news, life and death are unknown, and there are no exceptions.
As a result, the cloud curtain has always given the world an incomparably mysterious feeling, and there are many imaginations about its interior, however, it is surrounded by a desolate and dead land, and there is no life, and the mainstream view is that most of the inside is a lifeless ghost with fireworks soaring into the sky, and there are many dissenters, who believe that it is rich in cultivation resources and is a blessed land.
After all, it was impossible to break through the fog and take a look, and the argument seemed meaningless, and the only thing that had no objection was that they all called it - the secret realm of the sky.
No matter what people in the outside world imagine, there is indeed another world and a different atmosphere within the secret realm.
If you can see through the fog, you will find a huge sinkhole underneath.
At the edge of the sinkhole, the cliffs are innumerable, the axe splits and cuts, the jagged and staggered, the waterfalls between the precipices are stacked and falling; at the bottom of the sinkhole, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, the lakes are everywhere, the strange flowers and plants are luxuriant, and the rare birds and beasts are infested.
The edge is outward, surrounded by peaks, the mountains are majestic and majestic, and the ravines between the mountains are vertical and horizontal, extending outward until they are submerged in the mist.
The whole is a paradise, a fairyland on earth, which is many times larger than what the outside world sees.
At the northern edge of the sinkhole, there is a steep peak that is roughly triangular prism-shaped, no less than a thousand feet high, on the three corners of the peak, three huge stone peaks are suddenly stretched out, straight into the sky, like three optimus jade pillars.
The west side of the pinnacle is a steep slope facing the sinkhole, and the other two sides are cliffs, and the three pinnacles enclose a flat land, with lush vegetation and clouds.
On this day, on top of the three stone peaks, the celestial phenomena suddenly changed, and the dark clouds in all directions seemed to be pulled by an unknown force, and they continued to gather and surge, rolling and rolling rapidly, forming a huge black vortex, such as shrouded for many miles, the Dao lightning broke out, tore the void, and split into the three peaks, the momentum was extremely terrifying.
The birds and beasts below the mountain instinctively fled farther away.
The dark cloud vortex was like a funnel, pressing on the sky above the three peaks, and the thunder and lightning continued to bombard down, and it lasted for three days before it dissipated.
At a pass between the mountains, a figure suddenly rushed out, panicked, rushed into the forest below the mountain, followed by another figure, and the speed was even faster.
The distance was getting closer and closer, and the eyes behind were about to catch up, and the one in front seemed to know that great disaster was coming, so they suddenly made a sharp turn and fled towards the mountain.
The figure in the rear stopped suddenly, showing a body like a big cat, with green hair and black spots all over his body, and it was actually a leopard chasing the wind.
Xuan Leopard looked at the strange scene that appeared in the sky above the mountain, and sensed an inexplicable danger, and then looked at the hoof beast that looked like a cow and a sheep that fled to the mountain.
After wandering for a while, the lure of food finally prevailed over the fear of danger, and the leopard rushed up a steep slope and chased after its prey.
The slope of the mountain is rocky and steep, the hoof beast climbs up in a panic, and hears the loud thunder sound from time to time on the mountain, and the hair on his body stands on end, only to feel that the danger on the mountain is greater, but there is no way to retreat, only to continue to go up.
The hoof beast jumped and climbed, and every time it advanced a large distance, it would slide a short distance, and often the four hooves scraped desperately to stop the slippery trend, and many gravel were stripped out and rolled down one after another.
The leopard was sturdy and light, jumping left and right to dodge the rocks rolling down from above, and the speed of the pursuit slowed down slightly.
The hoof beast looked back from time to time, and saw that the leopard was chasing after him, the distance was getting closer and closer, and it was more anxious, and it jumped hard, and crossed several dangerous places in a row, and finally came to the top of the mountain.
The terrain flattened out and a path appeared between the sparse trees.
The hoof beast was about to rush in, and there was another explosion in the sky deep in the forest, and the hoof beast was so frightened that it trembled, but it only hesitated for a moment, rushed in, ran for a distance, and there was another explosion in the air, and the hoof beast was so frightened that it wanted to turn around and flee, and after a moment's pause, it thought that the predator behind it was about to catch up, so it had to rush straight in.
The hoof beast rushed out from between several bushes of blooming camellia trees, and its vision suddenly became wide, and it was a large unobstructed circular square, in the middle of which was a cylindrical stone platform half a zhang high, and an old man sat on the stone platform hanging in the air, and the high altitude above pressed a funnel-shaped cloud that could not be seen, swirling and rolling, and the electric light pierced out, which could be split down with supreme power at any time.
I was already shrouded in it, but I really felt it at this time.
The old man is in tatters, like the rest of his life after the catastrophe, in fact, the catastrophe is still continuing, but it has reached the last moment, and it is a new world that cannot be broken through, and there will be no existence in the world.
The old man noticed the arrival of the hoof beast, but he didn't care about it, he looked at the sky with his hair open, and kept pinching his hands, stimulating layers of light shields, no less than a hundred layers, blocking above, protecting his body, and at the same time, the light on his body flashed, showing a set of light armor.
Standing still on the edge of the hoof beast square, he looked at the situation on the field, and saw that there were many fragments of swords and shields scattered around the stone platform, and the old man on the stone platform was like a madman, and he couldn't get past the dark cloud whirlpool.
The hoof beast didn't pay attention to any of this, only thinking about how to get through it quickly.
"Go!"
The old man shouted violently, and with a wave of his big sleeves, two rays of light shot out, one of which turned into a giant tripod and buckled upside down on top of his head, like a giant high hat, and the other turned into more than a dozen silver swords, rushing towards the cloud whirlpool like sharp arrows.
The old man's move was like a provocation, and the whirlpool was instantly enraged, and the cold electric light poured down, forming a silver waterfall, accompanied by an earth-shattering explosion, falling straight between the three peaks.
The hoof beast had never seen such a scene, and it was frightened and inexplicable, and wanted to turn around, and when it looked back, the figure of the black leopard seemed to have arrived,
More than a dozen silver swords weaved a net of light to meet it, and all of them exploded into powder ash after only one block, and the electric light waterfall was just stagnant, the light was slightly dim, and it continued to fall.
Part of it hit the light shield, and the light shield disintegrated layer by layer like paper paste, and the rest swept across the field, and the hoof beast was lost in advance and retreat, and was instantly submerged.
The lightning swept by, and the figure of the hoofed beast rushed out of the ground to reappear, unscathed.
At this time, there was only one electric Jiao left on the field dancing wildly, and the hoof beast no longer hesitated and rushed forward.
The electric Jiao was the thickness of a thigh, as if it had life, and it circled and rushed down, and the old man took out a golden sword to meet it.
The two exchanged blows, and there was a sonorous sound, and the golden sword only resisted one or two before it exploded into pieces, while the electric Jiao was just a blow and continued to rush downward.
Several fragments shot directly at the hoofed beast, and the hoof beast leaped up, and it was able to dodge.
Almost at the same time, the electric Jiao hit the big ding.
While!
In the loud noise, the electric Jiao scattered into more than a dozen electric snakes and rebounded, swam away rapidly, and rushed towards the old man again, hitting the old man's protective light shield, and the old man let out a painful *.
The weakest of them somehow turned around and rushed towards the hoof beast in mid-air, and the hoof beast couldn't react and hit directly.
The hoof beast dodged the fragments, and was rejoicing to itself, when there was a sudden loud noise in his ears, and he was numb and unconscious, and his body fell directly into the forest on the side like a sack that had been thrown away.
At the same time, the Xuan Leopard, who was already almost at the top of the mountain, heard a few explosions, trembled with fright, his limbs weakened, turned around and ran down the mountain, never looking back.
I don't know how long it took, the hoof beast's consciousness revived, and it felt a burst of cool liquid flowing into its mouth, which was very delicious, and I couldn't help but suck it and swallow it, and inadvertently swallowed a soft pill, and the bitter and cool taste slipped down my throat and melted into my stomach.
Then, several streams of heat surged, either from the front of the chest or from the back, hitting the brain in turn, and the brain couldn't help but feel bursts of pain.
The impact lasted more than ten times, breaking through an invisible barrier outside the brain to the crack.
The hoof beast seemed to hear a soft sound of Kala, and suddenly its brain brightened, and many ignorant things became clear, and at the same time, it was indescribably comfortable.
The hoof beast fully awoke, and noticed that something was scraping back and forth between the back of its neck and back, and when it opened its eyes and looked up, it saw an old face facing her, with long, white hair, and a face full of concern.
The two almost nose to nose.
It was the old man who was struck by lightning, he was holding a gourd in one hand and pouring the decoction into his mouth, and the other hand was lightly pressed on his back, rubbing back and forth.
The hoof beast was suddenly startled, rolled on the spot to dodge, and tried to stand up, but its knees weakened, and it knelt on the ground.
Suddenly frightened and angry, he looked at the old man who was not as good as a beggar, and only said that he was playing a ghost, and scolded without words: "Well, you dead old man, what did you use to beat the old lady just now?
"How many years have it been, and finally someone dares to scold in front of the deity, it feels good......" The old man was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: "Sure enough, the Lingfan Wisdom Pill is effective, and only one grain can make an ignorant young beast completely enlighten its mind, and normal communication with people is not a problem......"
Years of research have yielded practical results, and the old man laughed heartily: "Ha...... The little guy is a little interesting, as soon as his head changes, he opens his mouth to scold, not to mention that the old man has been spanning his life so far, no one dares to scold, no one dares to call himself the palace and the old lady in front of the old man, just say that you are so open-mouthed, you are not afraid of offending the old man, you can't eat and walk around?"
