Chapter 169: The Horde of Terror
Old Man Guan's specific cultivation is not very clear to Chu Yun, but he has not been able to pass the test, and his cultivation must not be high.
However, Chu Yun was much more at ease with him than Chen Yu, and they all said that people are old and fine, and Old Man Guan has participated in the entry test for a lifetime, and he has long been an old driver, even if he can't pass the test, he shouldn't be dead.
Since Chu Yun entered the Heavenly Seal Sect, he had inexplicably offended many people without doing much, and there were some unkind eyes around him, and some people even wanted to put him to death.
can be regarded as friends, and it is only about the old man and Senior Brother Chen Yu, Chu Yun naturally cares more about these two.
As for the iceberg beauty Su Jianxi, although Chu Yun doesn't hate it, he doesn't have much affection, even if he treats her as a friend, it is estimated that she will disdain it.
Thinking about some things in his heart, Chu Yun didn't stop at his feet, and kept rushing at full speed.
The sun rises over the East China Sea and sets over the West Mountains, and soon dusk is approaching.
Previously, Chu Yun's direction was slowly approaching the Ice Spirit Fire Lotus, and after running for most of the day at this moment, Chu Yun sensed some abnormal movements coming from front of him, as well as the low roars of a large number of demon beasts.
Obviously, not far ahead, it should be the place where the Ice Spirit Fire Lotus appeared.
......
At the same time, the waterfall where Chu Yun was originally hiding was about two hundred miles downstream, and the cliffs on both sides became more and more towering, rising straight from the ground, as if a knife had split it, forming a deep mountain stream.
The damp mist rises and falls, and the sky is not visible.
In a dim cave washed out by the rising waters of mountains and rivers, Chen Yu was sitting cross-legged.
His eyes were deep with a hint of fierceness, his breath was a little weak, and he had swallowed all the healing pills on his body, slowly recovering from his injuries.
In the previous fight with the red-haired demon beast, he was already injured, and he was chased and killed by the horse-faced young man and others all the way, and the injuries were even more injured, especially the penetrating wound on his waist that was penetrated by the sword talisman, which almost killed him.
However, what surprised him was that he jumped from such a high cliff, even if he fell into the mountains and rivers, the huge impact was enough to kill, but not only did he not die, but after waking up, he was still lying in this cave dozens of meters away from the river bank.
Chen Yu was also a little puzzled at first, but then he figured it out, maybe it was a registered disciple who was passing by here, and found that he still had a breath, so he rescued him and was still in the cave.
Although it was a gesture and a casual effort, Chen Yu was very grateful in his heart, if it weren't for this person's kindness, he would have become a floating corpse floating on the river at this moment.
Chen Yu clenched his fists tightly, the green tendons on his arms burst out, and the essence in his eyes flickered.
This encounter made him feel weak, how could he protect his little sister like this, and how could he make those who thought he was doing something unaware of the consequences to pay.
Chen Yu's breathing was slightly short, affecting the injury on his waist, and he took another breath of cool air.
He took out the jade talisman from his arms, with his current situation, he no longer had the luxury of passing the test, just waiting for the location of the teleportation array to appear on the jade talisman, and after returning to the sect, he devoted himself to cultivation, waiting for the next sect test.
"No matter what, I must pass the test, this time it will be a little bit, next time, next time it will definitely work, one day I will be strong, I must be strong!"
Chen Yu's body trembled slightly, his fists pressed against the damp rocky ground, and a glint bloomed in his eyes.
......
In the depths of the rolling mountains, in the shade of a lush ancient tree, a crystal luster flashed from time to time in the rolling green waves.
It is a lake with light blue waves, and the sunset shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, reflecting on the sparkling water, floating a little warm light.
This hidden lake in the mountains, with a radius of more than 100 zhang, has a clear water color and a faint green color, like a piece of jade lost in the forest, which is very beautiful.
In the center of the small lake, a budding lotus flower, exuding a brilliant clear light, gently floats on the clear water, and the lake water within a range of several meters is reflected crystal clear by the luster it emits, which looks very strange.
And around the shore of the lake, hundreds of various demon beasts crawled on the shore, constantly letting out a low roar, and in the huge pupils, there was a greedy ghostly light floating in them.
But these demon beasts also looked like they were afraid of something, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous, let alone set foot in the lake.
Although there is a trace of greed for the lotus, it is more like guarding it, many demon beasts, and from time to time they look around the lake, always exuding a ferocious aura, secretly vigilant.
If a human monk appeared at this time, it was estimated that they would immediately rush up and tear apart on the spot.
......
"Oh my God, how can there be so many demon beasts!"
Ten miles above the lake, on a high ground, there was a huge bluestone, and a group of people were lurking behind it.
These people all quietly poked their heads out, looked at the lake below, and were also frightened by the terrifying herd of beasts, and couldn't help but sigh.
"This is indeed a bit scary, although every time the sect chooses a test place, there will be no strong outrageous demons, but with so many demon beasts gathered together, we have basically no hope of getting that ice spirit fire lotus!" Chen Qingyu said with a look of regret.
Mu Xiaoxiao on the side also nodded lightly, glanced around, and said softly:
"It's not just these demon beasts, I'm afraid there are a lot of registered disciples hidden around this small lake now, all of them are coveting the Ice Spirit Fire Lotus in the center of the lake, we want to get it, but there is little hope!"
Everyone nodded, and there was a faint hint of unwillingness on their faces.
The girl with a pigtail rolled her big eyes and said in a crisp voice, "That...... Didn't Senior Brother Chu say that the more people there are, the more hope we have?"
"Having said that!" Mu Xiaoxiao said: "Originally, I thought that someone would act rashly and cause a riot of demon beasts, so that we could take advantage of the chaos to rob it, but now it seems that these people are probably frightened by this terrifying beast herd, and they are all hiding in one place like us and secretly observing, even those disciples who are not weak in cultivation dare not act rashly!"
"In this case...... Zhong Lin shook his head and said, "I guess I can only miss this elixir this time!"
"Wait. Chen Qingyu pondered and said: "Brother Chu should be almost here, when he comes, let's discuss it again!"
"That's right, this kid has a lot of ideas, maybe there's a chance. Zhong Lin said with a smile: "Looking at Brother Chu's appearance, it doesn't look like he will give up this Ice Spirit Fire Lotus easily, let's work together, and the opportunity will come to us!"
"Don't have too much hope!" Mu Xiaoxiao said lightly: "Although Senior Brother Chu has an active mind, after all, his cultivation is only at the second level of condensation, even if his own strength is not bad, in the face of so many demon beasts, it is a little impossible to get that elixir!"
Zhong Lin pursed his lips and muttered a little dejectedly: "Senior Sister Mu, I just lit a small flame of hope, and it was extinguished by your cold water!"
"Let's face it. ”
Mu Xiaoxiao spit out a sentence indifferently, then stopped speaking, and a group of people looked at the small lake again, with a complicated expression on their faces.
