"Huh?!Soul Eater!" Chen Youzhi and the other ghosts exclaimed in surprise.

The two Thousand Trick Peak cultivators who followed Chen Youzhi felt even more regretful at this time, regretting that they should not have listened to Chen Youzhi's bewitchment and took such a big risk.

The fierce name of the soul eater, Deng An had naturally heard of it. This kind of demon beast is generally a second-order or third-order, judging by the size of the soul-eating beast in front of him, it should belong to a minor second-order demon beast. The second-order demon beast is equivalent to a monk in the foundation building period.

Judging from the distribution of demon beasts, the vicinity should not be an activity area for second-order demon beasts, and it is not known whether this soul eater beast passed by by accident, or if it intends to settle here for a long time.

Of course, this is just an idea of Deng An. He hurriedly mobilized the yin qi around him, causing it to turn into a gust of yin wind around his soul body, and then quickly injected a spiritual force, and the yin wind roared violently, leaving only an afterimage of him in place.

Almost without any hesitation, Deng An used the Yin Wind Escape Technique, and in the face of this kind of demon beast that naturally likes to devour souls, he naturally ran as far as he could.

Chen Youzhi also didn't care about his two companions, and used the Yin Wind Escape Technique to quickly escape.

The two long-bearded old men who came with Chen Youzhi seemed to have made a difficult decision, quickly took out a jade talisman-like item, and desperately injected spiritual power into it, a burst of blue light flashed violently, and the old man disappeared in place, without a trace.

The remaining malevolent cultivator did not have a similar life-saving technique, and his face showed a look of despair, but he did not give up, but used the Wind Blade Technique at any cost, summoning a Yin Wind containing many thin blades, and desperately escaped with the power of the wind. However, this method was not sustainable and could only play a very short-term role, and the ghost only escaped twenty or thirty zhang away, and gradually slowed down due to the lack of spiritual power.

In the midst of these changes, the Soul Eater has already chosen its prey. The fierce face of the cultivator only felt that the dark shadow in front of him flickered, and the soul eater beast was already blocking the way, he didn't want to be restrained, so he immediately condensed a yin qi spear and stabbed forward viciously.

The Soul Eater Beast's half-open and half-closed eyes suddenly opened, bursting out two pale red beams of light, and after an instant, the face of the vicious Meditation Cultivator was hit by the beam, as if it had been immobilized, motionless, and with the irradiation of the beam, it gradually changed back to the state of Yin Qi.

The Soul Eater Beast opened its pointed mouth and sucked it in suddenly, and the red light and the Yin Qi mass that the meditation had turned into were all sucked into its stomach like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

After a while, the soul eater beast opened its mouth, spit out a mist of yin qi, and stretched out its slender tongue, licking its mouth, as if it was still unsatisfied, and looked at the direction where Deng An and Chen Youzhi left with some greed, and chased after it slowly.

Deng An used the Yin Wind Escape Technique four times in a row before he felt that the breath of the Soul Eater Beast had become very weak, but he still didn't dare to be careless and continued to run for his life with all his might.

And more than ten zhang away from Deng An, Chen Youzhi is also running wildly.

The two ghosts were now bent on escaping the Soul Eater, and there were other minds there, even though they were so close that they didn't even notice each other's existence.

Deng An fled for seven or eight miles in one go, and only when he couldn't feel a trace of the breath of a soul-eating beast did he dare to stop and rest. After recovering some yin qi and spiritual power, he slowly surveyed his surroundings, and in a panic, he came to the edge of a small valley.

After carefully confirming the location, Deng An couldn't help but worry, this place was already very close to the demon beast area, and he didn't know if he would encounter more powerful demon beasts.

"It's ghostly!"

Suddenly, Deng An's face changed, and he cursed secretly.

I don't know when, Chen Youzhi also appeared not far away, but except for the valley, the terrain in other places is very simple, which is not conducive to hiding the traces.

According to the map provided by Zhou Jingqi, the length of this valley is only more than ten miles, and the exit on the other side is considered the edge of the demon beast area, but as long as you get out of the valley and walk along the foot of the mountain in the east, you can leave again soon.

In order to put Chen Youzhi in order, Deng An decided to take a risk.

After Chen Youzhi was blocked by a cliff, he immediately felt Deng An not far away. Without any hesitation, he quickly chased after him. However, after all, it was still a step too late, and he could only watch Deng An disappear in the woods of the valley.

Regarding the surrounding terrain, Chen Youzhi also knew something, of course he knew where the mountain pass of the valley led, originally, there were three meditation cultivators on their side, which was more than enough to deal with Deng An, but who would have thought that they would encounter a soul eater beast on the way.

To chase or not to chase, Chen You is difficult to choose.

His speed is on par with Deng An, and at most he can only guarantee that he will not be ridden by Deng An, but it is difficult to keep the other party. He deliberately went around to the other side of the cliff and intercepted Deng An halfway, but without help, if Deng An returned from the valley, he would waste his time.

Just when Chen Youzhi was hesitating, he came from the northeast to meditate, and he didn't seem to want to be bumped into, so he chose this relatively hidden path.

"Why is he?" When this meditation cultivator came to the edge of the cliff and came near the entrance of the valley, he saw Chen Youzhi in front of him at a glance, and after a little consideration, he greeted him.

Chen Youzhi suddenly saw a meditation cultivator approaching quickly, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, but when he saw the appearance of the ghost, his face couldn't help but show joy, and he asked in a loud voice unexpectedly: "Jin Daoyou, didn't you go to do something for the adult? Why did you come here?"

Judging from his appearance, he was estimated to be a wealthy and noble person during his lifetime, and there was an aura of a superior person between his gestures.

This meditation cultivator did not answer Chen Youzhi in the first time, but looked at the valley suspiciously, and then said lightly: "The matter that the Lord has explained, Jin has successfully completed, and he is planning to rush back to Qianqiao Peak to resume his life." As for you, Chen Daoyou, how could you go out alone and come to this dangerous place, the adults took extra care of you, and the errands arranged were also very good?

Chen Youzhi was secretly happy when he heard this, and he had an idea in his heart......

Deng An ran out of the valley for three or four miles, and could no longer feel Chen Youzhi's breath, so he hurriedly found a hidden mountain crack to restore his previous Yin Qi consumption.

After about half an hour, with the replenishment of yin qi, the spiritual power also recovered somewhat, Deng An did not dare to stay for a long time, and continued to float towards another exit of the valley.

Due to the lack of vegetation above the cliffs on both sides, and there are some flying monsters living there, the luck psychology that existed before has been completely abandoned by him, if you rashly climb over the cliffs, you will inevitably become the target of the monsters, but it is better to detour from another exit to safety.

The scope of the valley is small, and there are very few demon beasts living in it, only five or six first-order demon beasts, which pose little threat to Deng An, and it can be resolved extremely easily.

Seeing the exit not far away, Deng An's mood suddenly relaxed. As long as you get out of the valley and go around the demon beast area from the east, you can enter the sphere of influence of the black pine forest gathering point.

However, as soon as Deng An walked to the exit, he saw a cultivator blocking the way.

The cultivation of this contemplative cultivation is already in the late stage of Nayin, judging from its soul body, its strength is estimated to be equivalent to the ninth level of qi cultivation among monks, and it is only one step away from being able to advance to condensation.

The other party was very tall, slightly fat, with a proud expression on his face, and he was standing in the middle of the road. Anyone can see that the person is not good, Deng An's mood couldn't help but sink to the bottom, the other party was most likely a helper invited by Chen Youzhi, waiting for him here.

Needless to say, the entrance to the valley must be guarded by Chen Youzhi.

The meditation cultivator had already discovered Deng An, but he didn't take the initiative to do it, his conjured face brought out an inexplicable smile, and he looked Deng An up and down with great interest.

Deng An said with an ugly face: "Your Excellency must be a helper invited by Chen Youzhi, I don't know what benefits Chen Youzhi promised? ”

The middle-aged cultivator smiled coldly and did not deny it: "As you said, it is just a deal between me and Chen Youzhi, as long as the price is enough, I will naturally help him." ”

Deng An'an thought turned sharply, unable to guess the true relationship between the other party and Chen Youzhi, and asked tentatively: "If you can make Daoyou let go, I don't know what kind of price is needed?"

The middle-aged cultivator smiled lightly: "You are not qualified to trade with me, because in the terms of my transaction with Chen Youzhi, the corpse demon bones and half-immortal weapons on your body have already been included. ”

Deng An vaguely understood, most of the middle-aged cultivators were greedy for money, and they were temporarily deceived by Chen Youzhi, since there was no possibility of negotiation, they could only give it a go, as long as they found an opportunity, they could use the Yin Wind Escape Technique to get rid of the other party and seek life for themselves.

Deng Anxin had an idea, and decided to strike first and immediately sacrifice the corpse demon bones.

"It's just a corpse demon bone of a first-order demon beast. The middle-aged cultivator looked at the palm-sized bone fragment in Deng An's hand, frowned slightly, didn't seem to be very satisfied, and said to himself: "Fortunately, it's better than nothing, it's still okay to exchange it for twenty or so snow spirit leaves." ”

After speaking, the middle-aged meditation cultivator flipped over his big hand and sacrificed a two-inch-long cylindrical bone. Judging by its shape, it seems to be the phalanges of some kind of ape-like monster beast.

"Corpse Demon Bone!" This time it was Deng An's turn to be shocked. However, he quickly reacted, and without waiting for the other party to take offensive measures, he opened his mouth and spewed out a large breath of yin qi to the bone fragment, and this yin qi turned into a column of water, like an arrow from the string, shooting towards the middle-aged meditative cultivator.

"It turned out to be a corpse demon bone that transformed venom, which was still somewhat useful to Jin. It seems that in order to coax this ghost to chase and kill Deng An, Chen Youzhi blurred the corpse demon bones, and the level and effect were not explained, which aroused the interest of this ghost.

The middle-aged cultivator didn't see any panic, and waited until the venom shot in front of him, and then he spewed out a breath of yin qi to that finger, and a golden pillar of light shot out from this finger bone in an instant, and hit the venom, and after a crackling sound, the two dissolved into invisibility at the same time.

The middle-aged cultivator shook his head, probably not very satisfied with this result, but his eyes looking at the corpse demon bone in Deng An's hand became more and more eager.

The blow was ineffective, Deng An didn't dare to waste time, took out the two-foot-long beast bone semi-underworld weapon, and immediately injected a trace of spiritual power into it, the half-underworld weapon was stimulated, and the surface of the beast bone suddenly emitted a layer of golden light. Deng An brandished the demon beast and smashed it down on the head of the middle-aged cultivator.

"How is it a low-grade semi-underworld weapon? Chen Youzhi doesn't even have this knowledge?"

Listening to the tone, the middle-aged meditative cultivator was very dissatisfied. With a flick of his palm, he took out a two-foot-long fang, which turned out to be a semi-dark weapon. And judging from its appearance, although it is not as good as the evil tiger jade staff, it is a cut above the semi-dark weapon obtained from Kong Nianqi in Deng An's hand.
