Chapter 566: Ambush on All Sides (I)
Shengyang Lake, one of the largest lakes in the Western Regions and even in the Cangrui Domain, has a radius of thousands of miles.
As the saying goes, hundreds of rivers eventually enter the sea, and Shengyang Lake is no exception.
The rivers that flow out of Shengyang Lake branch out of countless branches, crossing the Western Regions, and even crossing the Demon Domain, and finally flowing into the boundless sea.
Because Shengyang Lake is too big, there are many aquatic demon beasts living in it, and there are even Dharma Body Realm demon beasts.
Because of the abstinence of Buddhism and the majority of Buddhist monks in the Western Regions, the demon beasts in Shengyang Lake multiply extremely intensively.
In addition to the casualties in the battle between the demon clans, the human monks swept back here to hunt the demon beasts.
Of course, the most important point is that the river branch of Shengyang Lake passes through the Demon Domain, and if the demon beasts in Shengyang Lake are slaughtered, the monks are afraid that they will usher in several terrifying beings from the Demon Domain.
In the history of Cangrui Domain, there were incidents in which monks annoyed the demon clan because of excessive slaughter of demon beasts.
The reason why the demon clan forces have always been at peace with the human monks is entirely because the human race has three holy lands.
They and the Holy Land hold each other in check and fear each other.
Maintain the delicate relationship that you don't offend me, and I don't offend you.
If one side makes an out-of-the-ordinary move, it will inevitably trigger a frantic counterattack from the other side.
Which demon domain riot is not a river of blood, and the Cangrui domain is full of mourning.
Therefore, the demon beasts in Shengyang Lake have survived to this day under the subtle rules of the demon race and the human race.
It's the rising sun.
The half-round sun rises from the surface of Shengyang Lake, and the morning light sprinkles on the sparkling surface of Shengyang Lake, rippling with blurry waves.
The morning view of Shengyang Lake is one of the famous scenery in the Western Regions, and even its name is named after it.
In a water cave on the border between Shengyang Lake and the land of the Western Regions.
Xu Mu sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, his eyes intertwined with black gas and golden light calmly looking at the famous morning scenery in the Western Regions.
The reflected waves were reflected on his handsome face, and Xu Mu's face was waveless.
Or maybe he didn't have time to enjoy the scenery in front of him, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
His mouth rolled slightly, and he spat out his muttered self-mutter:
"It's only been a few days, and there are so many monks of unknown origin in the Western Regions, and the strength of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect is inevitably too great, this is the Western Regions. ”
Since three days ago.
When Xu Mu and Rosewood traveled through the Western Regions, they obviously felt that something was wrong.
Almost every city has a mysterious monk who secretly watches the passers-by.
Everyone's eyes were like knives, carefully scrutinizing all the monks who passed by.
If it weren't for Xu Mu's supernatural powers that ordinary people could see, he and Zi Sandalwood would have been exposed a long time ago.
Even so, in the past three days, he and Zi Sandalwood have been followed by several groups of monks.
In the entire Cangrui Domain, except for the terrifying influence of the Holy Land, Xu Mu couldn't think of a second answer at all.
And the Xuanyuan Sword Sect was definitely the biggest suspicion Xu Mu could think of.
Xu Mu had no doubt that once he and Zi Tan showed a little flaw, they would inevitably usher in the Xuanyuan Sword Sect's power-breaking power in less than a day.
In the past three days, Xu Mu almost didn't dare to stay at all, and kept hurrying with red sandalwood.
It was only yesterday that they arrived at Shengyang Lake.
Fortunately, Shengyang Lake is a sensitive area between the demon race and the human race.
The forces of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect were obviously unwilling to put their hands here, so he and Zi Tan finally had some time to breathe.
"But this is not a long-term solution, if it goes on like this, I and Rosewood will be exposed sooner or later, a man and a woman walking together, the goal is too obvious. ”
Xu Mu's face was cloudy and sunny under the light of the waves of Shengyang Lake.
The pressure from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect made him feel that his body and Yuan Shen were in a tense state all the time.
He was so depressed that he almost couldn't breathe.
"At the end of the day, I'm too weak now. The corners of his mouth provoked a touch of bitterness, and Xu Mu said self-deprecatingly: "My current strength is also considered a strong person in the Eastern Realm, and I can protect myself in the face of the Seven Great Cultivation Families, but in the eyes of the Holy Land, I am still an ant." ”
Xu Mu muttered to himself, and a series of slight footsteps sounded in the cave behind him.
Click!
The visitor could obviously sense that Xu Mu was thinking, and deliberately kept his footsteps very low, not wanting to affect him.
It's a pity that Xu Muwu has great senses, even if it is a mosquito, it can't escape his ears within a thousand feet.
What's more, the unique body fragrance on the body of the person who came was even more identified by Xu Mu's nostrils.
"Awake?" Xu Mu immediately retracted the expression on his face, tilted his head towards the smoked purple clothes behind him and showed a gentle smile.
"Yes. Smoked purple clothes appeared behind Xu Mu, and after Qiong's nose let out an answer, she nodded her white forehead implicitly.
It's just that she still has a little bit of tiredness on her face, and it can't escape Xu Mu's eyes.
In the past three days, she has been on the road non-stop, and Smoked Ziyi is obviously very tired, but she is unwilling to say these meaningless things to increase the pressure on Xu Mu.
These Xu Mu understood, and immediately said tentatively:
"I haven't rested for three days, I'm tired. Would you like to take a break? We're not short of that. ”
Of course, Xun Ziyi knew that Xu Mu was lying, and what they lacked most now was time, so he hurriedly shook his head and refused in a gentle voice: "No, after leaving the Western Regions, let's have a good rest." ”
Although the voice of the smoked purple clothes is still gentle, but there is stubbornness in the beautiful eyes, Xu Mu knows that once the purple sandalwood is stubborn, it is useless to persuade himself.
Nodding helplessly, Xu Mu got up from the cold ground of the cave.
"Then let's go. ”
Smoked Ziyi immediately smiled, and was about to leave with Xu Mu.
On the ground, Xu Muna's body that had already stood up suddenly stiffened, and a pair of brows couldn't help frowning.
Smoked purple clothes seemed to be able to see something from Xu Mu's expression, and he didn't ask too much, and immediately unfolded his divine sense.
His gaze moved to the shore of Shengyang Lake, which was less than fifty miles away from Xu Mu and the others.
Seven or eight teenagers and girls were fighting with a black-scaled snake-shaped demon beast.
Most of these young people's cultivation is in the Qi Controlling Realm, and the highest cultivation level is only the Seventh Heaven of Imperial Qi, and their opponent, the Water Demon Beast, is the strength of the Eight Heavens of Imperial Qi.
With the advantage of numbers, these people could barely entangle with that waterwalking demon beast.
But it's obviously not so easy to win.
The demon beast's physical body was extremely strong, and the attacks of a few people could not break through its defenses at all.
Occasionally, the serpentine monster would fight back and push them to the ground.
"The Black Water Serpent. ”
Xu Mu's divine sense saw all this in his eyes, and his mouth turned slightly, directly saying the name of this common snake-shaped demon beast.
After that, Xu Mu withdrew his divine sense, and he didn't mean to meddle in things.
Battles like this happened every day in the cultivation realm, and he was used to it.
What's more, now is an extraordinary period, and it is even more impossible for Xu Mu to make a move.
"Let's go, it's not from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect. It should be a disciple from a certain sect who has come out to practice. He said lightly to the smoked purple clothes, and Xu Mu's heart moved, and he wanted to leave the cave.
But he found that his red sandalwood sister did not move at all.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Mu handed over an inquiring look towards the smoked purple clothes.
"Senior Brother Xu Mu, maybe we can take the waterway. The purple-clothed eyes suddenly flashed with a terrifying brilliance.
