Chapter 0073: Gathering Oolongdang
Originally, it was agreed to go separately, but when there were pursuers behind him, and there might be unknown barbarians in front of him, he had to flee quickly all the way. Yang Shao was secretly depressed in his heart, he activated the strengthening talisman just now, and the mana was consumed to the point that there was only a little left, and the pill he took was too late to refine, so he had to control the golden wolf shuttle while grabbing a medium-grade spirit stone in each hand to restore his mana.
Fortunately, Ye Chenguang took a junior brother to hang two or three miles behind, and from time to time he had to deal with the chasing enemy behind, and the three of his junior brothers could still be safe in the middle. After flying southeast for more than an hour, the mountains in the distance slowly became low, and at the end of the line of sight, a huge square city lay across the field.
On the wide avenue on the ground, two black lines formed by countless barbarian soldiers, one east and one west, are approaching the city, during which the flags are hunting, the war elephants are neighing, and some giant eagles are carrying the monks to fly at low altitudes, and even fly to the low altitude near the city to reconnoitre.
According to the record on the map, this city belongs to the Pumang Department, named Yuexi City, because it is located in the west of Cangyue Mountain, as long as it passes this city, there will be basically no more Le Mans tribesmen soldiers in the southeast.
Yang Shao beckoned Ding Yance and Zhuren to a voice, the imperial weapon rose into the sky, the clouds swept under his feet, the wind was cold in the face, the morning sun was reflected extremely dazzling, all the way to the north far away, suddenly saw a few small black dots flying up and down at the edge of the sky, the stars and dots of spiritual light flickered, and suddenly his heart was shocked, and he immediately stepped on his feet, and the imperial weapon fell sharply from the sky and landed in a small hill and hidden in the dense forest.
Later, Ding Yance and Zhu Renduan followed closely behind, quickly laying out a defensive magic array, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled tacitly, and sat cross-legged on the ground to recover their mana. Not long after, there was a roar in the sky, and Ye Chenguang took a junior disciple to fly over at a fast speed, but it was followed by more than a dozen barbarian monks or riding the spirit beast or the magic weapon to chase wildly.
Ding Yance asked with a smile: "Senior Brother Yang is still alert, it seems that this road is not very safe, do you want to go a little further to the north?"
"I'm afraid that the north is even more unsafe, and the Le Mans Department and the Tiger Mang Department will join forces to annex the three northern departments, and they will definitely set up a large number of monks and wrestlers to defend the northern border, and I don't know if Cangyue Shanfang City is still there?" Yang Shao replied after thinking about it, while sitting cross-legged on the ground and doing his best.
"How dare they do that with their strength...... If they succeed, then our Seven Sects of the Shen Kingdom will have no choice but to pinch their noses and admit it, as long as the elixir and spiritual materials are still traded with the Seven Sects, the Seven Sects will not have any losses, but they will not necessarily make a big move for the Northern Third Division!" Ding Yance didn't believe it, but he reacted immediately.
Zhu Renduan suddenly said: "But this is exactly the result that the Le Mans Department wants! But I heard that the Le Mans Department and the Hu Mang Department have lived in the south for a long time, so they are relatively close to the Laman Department in the south.
"Senior brothers are very smart, but this is not our consideration, let's prepare to enter Cangyue Mountain!" Yang Shao smiled, stopped the topic in time, and waited for the mana to recover almost before the weapon was lifted into the air, seeing that there was no one in the sky in the distance, he took the two junior disciples around the southeast and continued to hurry.
Like most dangerous terrain, Cangyue Mountain is also a general place name, and its mountain range is more than 20,000 miles from east to west, and it is a place where volcanic earthquakes are frequent. Its main peak is as high as more than 3,000 zhang, the mountainside is covered with ice and snow all the year round, every midsummer, the ice and snow melt to form a stream gushing down, form a vast swamp of five or six thousand miles in the plain valley under the mountain range, call it Wulongdang. However, this swamp also has another name that only a few advanced monks know, called the Demon Mound Swamp.
This swamp is also an extremely dangerous place, not only the magma eruptions that occur every few years, volcanic eruptions, and many fierce monsters inhabiting the swamp, but even some extremely rare savage xenomorph ancient beasts that have been handed down from ancient times.
And legend has it that in ancient times, Cangyue Mountain was the sect of Cangyue Immortal Sect, and then somehow, this divine immortal sect seemed to suddenly disappear overnight, and there was no record of this sect in the immortal cultivation world, but people passed it on by word of mouth, it seems that the disappearance of this sect is related to the ancient demon tribulation, and until now, only a few people have heard of some.
Three days later, at dusk, Yang Shao took Ding Yance and Zhu Renduan to a desolate black stone valley with no grass according to the map markers, and a dead tree with three or four people hugging on the slope not far away was very recognizable, but there was no figure around, and Lu Hao, Ye Chenguang and others had not yet arrived.
Yang Shao's imperial weapon rose into the air and circled around the vicinity for several miles, where the ground was full of black sand, and the rocks that occasionally protruded from the ground several feet high were also layers of jet-black shale. Heaven and earth were all monotonous black, stretching straight into the distance, and only at the edge of the swamp did there be occasional clumps of green, or dark purple water plants, which made people feel bored.
Two days later, Lu Hao and Ye Chenguang arrived, but there were only three people left. According to Lu Hao's explanation, on the way, he encountered the siege of Le Mans, and one of his junior disciples was killed in battle, leaving a ten-layer cultivator, and a man named Yuan Xundao was also seriously injured and had to take a long detour. Ye Chenguang was even more miserable, only one person was left, but he seemed to be safe and sound.
"In the middle of winter, although it is not cold in the south, is it appropriate to go up the mountain at this time?" Yang Shao was still a little inexplicably worried about this treacherous environment.
Lu Hao smiled lightly: "You don't know this, it is generally more suitable to go to Cangyue Mountain at the turn of spring and summer, but if it is midsummer, you will accidentally encounter an avalanche, and a large group of demon beasts that have finished hibernation will come out to move, it will be even more dangerous." Although this season is a little early, it also has benefits, and it is much safer to cross tens of thousands of miles of oolongdang!"
Ye Chenguang also asked: "In this case, Brother Lu has a detailed map, is the route across the swamp safe?
"Don't worry, even if you don't ask, I will explain clearly, these two elixirs are not the same, the black grass is even more rare, but at the foot of the mountain is called the shade of the Xiaopan Mountain cliff. And the purple epiphany also knows that it will only bloom on the iceberg, so it is not possible to go up the mountain. The cultivators of my generation are going against the sky, forcing that one in ten million glimmer of opportunity, and it is impossible not to take risks. And on the iceberg, maybe there is a chance to get more rare spiritual materials and elixirs that are difficult to find outside, even if the elixir of Zhuji Dan is not impossible. ”
Lu Hao said as he took out the three maps that had been prepared a long time ago and handed them to Yang Shao and Ye Chenguang, and pointed to the road map outlined in red lines on them to explain them one by one, and after crossing the swamp, there were two ways up the mountain, each marked the location of some elixirs.
"In fact, before this, Lu has been here a few times, and it is the first time to go up the mountain, but I have thought about the swamp and have to make some preparations, not to mention anything else, there is an invisible and colorless poisonous miasma in this swamp that is difficult to guard against, I have two bottles of miasma avoidance pills, which are not precious pills, you take them first!"
Lu Hao threw another bottle of miasma avoidance pill, and then explained some common sense that needs to be paid attention to when entering the swamp, as well as the hundred and ten kinds of more common demon beasts that inhabit the swamp, etc., which opened the eyes of several people.
In order to choose a suitable weather without strong winds, several people rested here for five or six days to prepare for the best state before setting off. For this reason, Yang Shao refined the mana of the Jizhong Acupoint Seal a little more, and the Huixin Spiritism was finally cultivated to a small level.
