The light flashed in front of him, and Ning Hong's eyes slowly opened.

This is a small space, at a glance, high mountains, cliffs, mountains and rivers, green trees and red flowers, flying insects and beasts.

In this space, the strongest existence is a second-order peak demon beast, which is equivalent to the peak of spiritual condensation, and it can appear anywhere, which is extremely dangerous.

There were originally a lot of treasures here, but many people come in every year, and it has been many years, and everything that should be picked has been picked, and it is basically difficult to see.

A map appeared in Ning's hand, which was given to him by the old man on the way when he came, and observed the surroundings, half a mile away in front of him, there was a sunken valley, walked forward, looked down at the bottom of the valley, and faintly could see the shape of a palm, and there were dense canyon passages around the "palm".

"Is this a natural formation or a human being?" Ning Hong exclaimed and looked at the map, "I should be in the Palm Valley now."

Looking up at the sky, there is a "sun" hanging high, it is said that this is not the real sun, but no one before knows what it is, only that the "sun" hangs in the east and has never moved, which is the reference of the direction in this secret realm.

On the map, there are five places where the veined butterfly orchid was found, and this map is not very complete, and the edges are marked with question marks, indicating that there are still many places in the secret realm that have not been explored, and it is unknown how big this secret realm is so far.

The five places are all in different directions of Ninghong, and the nearest veined peak, which is also ten miles away, is in the southeast direction.

"Let's go here first! I don't know if I'll be able to find it in five days. ”

......

"Roar~"

"Chirp~"

In the sky, the roar and chirping of demon beasts could be heard on the ground.

A big bird wings as white as snow, two feet long when spreading its wings, eagle head sparrow body, a cry, swooping down from the sky, just an instant, there is a tiger roaring and wailing in the mountains and forests, the big bird soared up, sharp claws stained with blood, grabbed a long tiger demon away.

By a river, a giraffe with antlers and a fiery red body was bowing its head to drink water, and several bloody mouths came out of the river, biting its neck and head, and pulling him into the water.

The law of the jungle is a constant occurrence in this secret realm.

At this time, Ning Hong came to a swamp, which was the only way to go to the Veined Peak, and it was also red marked on the map, which was very dangerous, but the time was urgent, and Ning Hong was not allowed to take a detour.

"There's a crocodile swamp ahead, so you have to be careful. Ning Hong frowned, took out the "sword wound" from the storage bag and held it in his hand, looking at the spiritual energy flowing on the blade, he suddenly felt a little more confident.

The plants in the swamp are mainly mosses, reeds, sagegrasses, horsetail (files), alders, willows, birches, larch, larch, water pine, and so on.

The trees are not very dense, the water surface is overgrown with weeds, and when the sun shines, you don't know what creatures are hiding underneath, and if you are not careful, you will become food.

In this swamp, the most are the evil eye crocodiles, adult evil eye crocodiles have at least the strength of the fourth order of the open vein, and the biting power of the two giant mouths is enough to tear apart the sixth order of the open vein, under the calm and waveless water, there may be several pairs of eyes staring at the water to observe.

The young man came with a sword, and his spiritual power poured out of his mind, and it was under his control within five zhang, which was clearly visible.

After walking for a while, the mud was stained on the soles of the teenager's shoes, and there were some on the trouser legs of the white school robe.

Wow.

After bypassing the shade of the trees, a long jaw lifted the water, its scales dark green, and emerged from the file.

call

A pale blue sword light swept through the air, splitting the air, the evil-eyed crocodile had just emerged from the water, and before it could open its bloody mouth, it was struck, and his own impact made him unable to stop at all, half of his mouth was cut out, and the blood stained the file red.

The evil eye crocodile was in pain, and the impact finally dissipated under his strong retreat and Ning Hong's sword, and the evil intent eyes were extremely resentful, and he quickly dived underwater, looking at the blood-stained long sword through the dark water, and his heart palpitated.

From the other five directions, the five evil-eyed crocodiles seized the opportunity, as if premeditated, and opened the water surface to emerge together, opening their hideous huge mouths and biting Ning Hong's side.

"Hmph!" Ning Hong had a sense of spiritual power, and he had already noticed the evil eye crocodile hiding on the side, his feet were slightly bent, and he jumped forward, and his toes were extremely accurate and pointed at a very small foothold in the file, out of the attack range.

Ning Hong turned around, jumped up, and stabbed forward with the long sword, due to the side bite of the evil eye crocodile, the long sword pierced the evil eye crocodile on the right from the top of his head, making it die with a whimper. Immediately, Ning Hong did not hesitate, his toes touched the ground, jumped and rotated, and used the rotation force and the sharpness of the sword wound to cut out a crack in half of the head of the evil eye crocodile, and the blood was dripping, and the sword wound was also pulled out, Ning Hong stepped on the middle of the crocodile's upper jaw with both feet, bent his feet slightly, jumped to the left obliquely, and pierced the head of the other evil eye crocodile, and the other three saw that the situation was not good, and the body was retracted back into the water in an instant.

Oh, the long sword was pulled out, and the sword body was stained with crocodile red and white things, but it was blocked by the light blue aura on the surface of the sword body, and the red and white things dripped down the sword body from the tip of the sword.

"This is the sixteenth time, the evil eye crocodile here is insidious and vicious, if I don't have spiritual perception, it's really hard to dodge. ”

Ning Hong's arm shook, and the red and white things on the sword body were shaken off, and the sword rushed forward.

......

Kaiqu County, Ningfu.

"It's going to be the New Year in a few days, and I don't know if Hong'er will come back. In the courtyard, Ning Zhan looked up at the sky, and the bright moonlight fell on his old but ruddy cheeks.

"Dad, Hong'er is now in the palace, we should be happy for him, whether he comes back or not is the pride of our Ning family. Ning Chenli stood beside him and said with a smile.

"Yes, I don't know if Hong'er can reach the Gathering Spirit Realm in two years. Ning Zhan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, since there are big people who appreciate it, I believe that Hong'er will not reach it by then, and he will be able to save his life. Ning Chenli comforted.

"I hope so!"

......

Tianhe School Palace, outside the 508 dormitory, Qian Zhongshu leaned on the handrail of the corridor, looking up at the bright moon, it was almost the New Year, everyone else had gone home, and he was the only one left.

He didn't want to go home and see the hypocritical faces of the villagers.

"Boss, you are in the palace now, I can't help you if I want to, and I can't help you with anything" Qian Zhongshu laughed at himself "Boss, you always see the dragon and don't see the head, I don't know when the next time I see you." ”

Qian Zhongshu originally wanted to saddle Ning Hong before he grew up, but found that even if Ning Hong was in class ten, he still couldn't hide his dazzling light, and Ning Hong's strength was much stronger than him, basically nothing he could help, but he was most fortunate to recognize Ning Hong as his eldest brother, and he didn't know if Ning Hong would remember his helpless little brother in another world a few years later.

"Hey" Qian Zhongshu sighed, he didn't help Ning Hong much, it seems that there is still little hope of becoming a spirit gatherer.

......

In the imperial city, there is a famous scenic spot - Magpie Lake, which is a good place for couples to enjoy the moon by boat in pairs in the imperial city, and it is also a holy place for young people to confess, and countless people marry every year under the witness of the moonlight.

In the middle of the lake, there is a gazebo with a statue of a magpie in different shapes on each side of the pavilion, which is lifelike and erects on the surface of the water, and it is from this that the lake is named.

At this moment, in front of a small boat, a gentle breeze blew, and the girl raised her slender hand and pulled the fluttering green silk behind her ear.

The girl's face is dignified and beautiful, her skin is like fat like jade, Saixue bullied the frost, the two willow eyebrows frowned slightly, her eyes were full of tenderness and longing, and her heart was the lingering figure, when she looked up, in the bright moon, she seemed to see the young man grinning at her.

The girl reached out and tried to caress the young man's handsome face, but it quietly disappeared.

"Why in the end, why do you always want to be close after seeing him, and when he is not there, she always misses it, it seems to be love, but it is not love, it seems to be cordial, but it is not cordial, it is indescribable, and the way is unknown. ”

In the secret realm, the brightness in the sky will never fall, and I don't know how long it took, Ning Hong finally came out of that swamp, during this period, he experienced countless attacks by evil eye crocodiles, but he had a five-zhang spiritual power perception range, allowing Ning Hong to easily avoid many killings, but under the high degree of mental concentration and condensation, the sudden relaxation after coming out made his mind dizzy, and his eyes were gloomy.

Rubbing his eyes, after a while, the light in front of him regained again, and at this time, there were still two miles away from the Veined Qi Peak.

"Huh~" At this moment, a giant eagle swooped down, and when it was only ten meters above the ground, the back half of its body sank, and two giant claws the size of a head and a cold light grabbed at Ning Hong.

There was a loud noise on the ground, and for a while the smoke and dust were filled, and the giant eagle flew above the smoke and dust, its eagle eyes were sharp, staring at the smoke and dust.

Ning Hong had just relaxed his vigilance before, because he felt the crisis, he desperately rushed to the side, but a hideous wound was also cut on his back, and even the school robe was torn.

"Hmm~ The seventh-order open-pulse in the credit cave can't break the school uniform, this giant eagle only has the sixth-order open-vein, and the claws are so powerful, or because those demon beasts in the credits cave have been weakened. Ning Hong thought in his heart, and suddenly the smoke and dust in front of him were stirred, and a black head appeared in front of him.

"Whew~" A pair of black wings exude a pitch-black metallic luster.

It was too late to feel the giant eagle, the giant eagle was too fast, and Ning Hong hurriedly raised his sword to block.

The black eagle wings slammed into the sword wound, and the huge force was transmitted from the sword, Ning Hong was slapped away, feeling a sweetness in his throat, but in the end, he stuck this dead mouth under his throat and didn't let it come out.

The giant eagle slapped Ning Hong and rushed back into the sky, and after flapping its wings a few times, it cried and swooped down, and its two sharp claws wanted to pierce Ning Hong's body.

"This is too unlucky, as soon as I let my guard down, I was beaten, I provoked someone. Ning Hong was full of helplessness.

At this time, as soon as he landed, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he saw the figure of the giant eagle getting closer and closer.

"Don't push me! Ning Hong's cross arm blocked, blocking the sword wound in front of him.

When the giant claw was about to grab Ning Hong's arm, Ning Hong's hand suddenly slashed, and the blade of the sword was towards the eagle claw, and the light blue aura on the blade flowed, extremely sharp, just a light touch, the giant eagle claw scratched.

The giant eagle was in pain, cried, and flew backwards, and bright red in its talons dripping in the air, "tick-tock"

Ning Hong was also slapped to the ground by the giant eagle's original huge force, and his throat was sweet again, and he couldn't help but spew out a mouthful of bright red.

Stand up regardless of the pain.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the giant eagle did not attack again at this time, staring at the sword in Ning Hong's hand with sharp eyes and some fear, although he was unwilling, he knew that the sword could threaten him, so he roared loudly, flew to the side, entered a mountain forest, tore a tall giant ape to pieces, and left angrily.

"Huh~Huh~Huh~"

"Finally dodged, it's terrifying, I now seriously suspect that those wolf demons in the Sect Cave are all made of water, and compared to the demon beasts that are really comparable to the sixth order of the Open Vein, it is simply a world of difference. ”

Wounding the sword in front of him, Ning Hong grinned, stroked the back of the sword with his left hand and said, "Although you hurt Godless, your bastard cheated me, but thanks to you." ”
