Volume 1: The Beginning of Cloud Xuan Chapter 80: Ebony Mountains
Fifteen days have passed since I left the Foggy Mountains.
In half a month, Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai went straight to Qingyun Castle.
Smooth sailing? Of course it's impossible.
It was early in the morning, and the sky was white, and the roar of beasts sounded in the mountains and forests.
A loud thump rang through the jungle, and it was some kind of behemoth running.
"Yu Dashuai, go to your side!"
Long Wenmu shuttles quickly from tree to tree, more agile than an ape.
The deer-chasing bow has opened its bow and drawn arrows, and the arrows are ready to fire.
"Long Manzi, if I don't die, I'm not done with you!" Yu Dashuai ran not far in front of him.
Behind him, a blue-gray ape six or seven feet tall was chasing.
The ape's burly shape was like a hill, with a surprisingly hideous face, running with its limbs as support. On the ape's back were five or six arrows, and it had been wounded a lot.
Yu Dashuai's two little short legs couldn't outrun that kind of behemoth, and when he saw that he was about to be overtaken, he howled, and suddenly released a golden turtle shell.
The giant ape was about to catch up with him, but he was tripped by his unexpected turtle shell, and suddenly fell with a peach blossom on his face.
Long Wenmu arrived from behind and shot three arrows in succession, each arrow against the tail of the previous arrow.
The three arrows are connected into a line, and the first line kills.
The sound of "whoosh" breaking wind.
Three arrows were driven into the place where the ape's head and neck met.
The power of the three arrows was superimposed, and it was still the right point, and after splashing a puddle of blood, the giant ape collapsed limply in the howl.
Long Wenmu fell from the branches, sweat still hanging on his forehead, and Yu Dashuai was still snorting and panting in the barrier.
The Ghost-Faced Demon Ape, this is the giant ape that just chased them, it is a little demon.
At this moment, this little demon has already choked his breath, and he can't die anymore.
"Long Man, use me as bait again, is it that I don't die, and you don't want to go?" Yu Dashuai glared and complained.
It's not once or twice, since entering this Ebony Mountain Range, they have encountered demon beasts more than once, and Long Wenmu has used him as bait every time.
Taking advantage of the fact that he was attacked by the demon beast, he attacked and killed the demon beast from behind, although he did not miss it, but Yu Dashuai didn't do it.
Leaving Wushan and following Long Wenmu to Qingyun Castle, who knew that this road would be so dangerous.
"What to complain about. Long Wenmu snorted angrily, and put away the deer bow, "You don't want to think about whose reason we have fallen to this point." ”
It all started a few days ago.
After leaving the Foggy Mountains, the two inquired about the location of Qingyun Castle along the way.
At that time, Qian Lingxue did tell them to meet in Qingyun Castle, and Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai had also been looking for directions along the way.
Qingyun Castle has a lot of reputation after all, and it is not difficult to inquire about the direction, and they came to the vicinity of this ebony mountain range a few days ago.
At that time, it was Yu Dashuai who went to ask for directions, and he didn't know which tendon he had made a mistake, so he found a big man.
At that time, the big man pointed to this mountain range and said to him, through this mountain range is Qingyun Castle.
As a result, the two entered the mountain range, and encountered five or six demon beasts along the way.
If it hadn't been for walking in this mountain range for so many days, Long Wenmu really wanted to turn around and twist off the head of the guide.
There should be nothing wrong with the direction of the direction, but the path to be pointed out is definitely nonsense by that guy.
"People say that passing through this ebony mountain range is Qingyun Castle...... Is that to blame me?" Yu Dashuai shrank his head.
"Do you believe what people say?" Long Wenmu glared at him.
"Then if you don't believe it, why did you come in too? ”
Long Wenmu almost didn't greet him in the face with the soles of his shoes.
Passing through this mountain range, Long Wenmu didn't know if it was Qingyun Castle, anyway, he only knew that there were countless demon beasts in this mountain range. If it weren't for the fact that he and Yu Dashuai both smeared with beast repellent incense, there might be many encounters.
What kind of place this ebony mountain range is, Long Wenmu can't figure it out. I only know that there are countless demon beasts here, if it weren't for the fact that he has the same strength as his cultivation, just because the two of them are in a place like this, it is no different from looking for death.
It's been a few days since I've been here, and I've come here, and if I turn back and find my way again, the delay will be too long. I can only go one way to the dark, but I don't know if it will be Qingyun Castle when I pass through this mountain range.
"I was stunned and worked. Long Wenmu wiped the sweat on his face and said.
Yu Dashuai ran up with a sigh, and he was the most active at such times.
Long Wenmu began to deal with the corpse of the Ghost-Faced Demon Ape.
Take out the roaring lion knife, raise and fall with the knife, and the action is clean and neat. Soon, the important things such as demon crystals, source stones, and inner pills were taken out one by one.
Yu Dashuai's side had already prepared the costumes and gathered all the things.
Forty-eight demon crystals were obtained from the demon beasts, and Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai each had half each. The rest of the source stones and inner pills were all taken into Long Wenmu's arms.
Every time a demon beast is hunted, it is basically distributed like this.
The person who hunted the demon beast was Long Wenmu, Yu Dashuai was only assisting from the side, and Yuan Shi and Neidan naturally had no part in him.
Yu Dashuai also fought for Long Wenmu a few times, but after learning Long Wenmu's dead face and brazenness, coupled with greed and arrogance, he also accepted his fate, who called his fist no bigger.
During the break, both of them crossed their knees and silently absorbed the demon crystal.
The demonic power contained in the demon crystal, in addition to supplementing the losses of the battle, can also assist people in cultivation.
After half a month of recuperation, Long Wenmu's injuries in the Foggy Mountains were basically healed.
With his resilience, although the injuries he suffered at that time were very serious, they did not have much impact on him. However, there is one thing that Long Wenmu cares about, after the demon in his body breathes out, there is always a cold aura in his body that does not disperse.
It was easy to recover from the injury, but the cold was difficult to dispel, and he had tried many times during this time, but this cold had remained in his body.
Under Long Wenmu's internal vision, this cold air gathered around the demon scar at this moment, and the cold air wrapped the demon scar, and there was always a cool feeling from time to time.
Although this is the power left by the earth demon, for now, this cold air is very calm, and Long Wenmu does not feel danger from this cold air.
I can't resolve it for a while, and I can't feel anything wrong, so I can only let it happen for the time being, and I can only see if there is any good way for her to find Qian Lingxue.
Long Wenmu absorbed the demon power in the demon crystal, and pieces of demon crystals disappeared in his hands.
Anyway, when they arrived here, they could see demon beasts everywhere, and demon crystals, a resource that was incomparably precious in the eyes of others, were squandered by him and Yu Dashuai.
If other demon masters saw their absorption method, they would definitely scold them for being losers.
Yu Dashuai was holding more than a dozen demon crystals in his hand, and his expression was more ecstasy, and he wanted to enjoy more and more.
When he was in the Yu family, he got more than a dozen demon crystals a month, and he usually tightened his belt to save money, and he couldn't wait to break one demon crystal into two pieces to use. When the demon crystals are used up, they can only meditate and cultivate slowly and steadily to improve their foundation, how can they be so comfortable to squander it now.
Although you can cultivate without a demon crystal, that speed is too slow after all. He has been a demon master for a year or two, and he is still a low-grade demon master, and the most important thing is that he has no resources.
And from the time he entered the Ebony Mountain Range to the present, Yu Dashuai could feel that the demonic power in his demon marks was close to overflowing, and it was not surprising when he broke through the shackles of the middle grade.
Long Wenmu's side is also unhurried absorption, he has no good way to deal with the cold qi in his body, he can only find a way to improve his strength first.
The speed at which he absorbed the demon crystal was much faster than Yu Dashuai, and it could even be said that it was some kind of abnormal speed.
When Yu Dashuai absorbs one piece of demon crystal, he can often absorb two or three pieces. As for the reason for this, Long Wenmu could feel that it was caused by the power in his demon marks.
In his own demon marks, there is a familiar force pulling the power in the demon crystal, and this power is like some kind of whirlpool, absorbing the demonic power from the outside world into it continuously.
Is the power of the bloodline?Long Wenmu could more or less detect the source of this abnormality.
Since the power of the bloodline was completely integrated into the demon marks, his demon marks seemed to be a little different from the normal demon marks, and they were stronger than the normal demon marks in various aspects.
The pieces of demon crystals were absorbed, and the power in the demon marks gradually became stronger, and under the inner view, the luster of the demon marks became brighter and brighter.
According to Long Wenmu's own estimate, if he absorbs it like this for another month or two, the power contained in the demon scar should be able to reach its limit. At that time, I will be able to break through to the realm of middle grade.
A month or two, this kind of time is definitely not long. Ordinary demon master cultivation, even if the demon crystal is abundant, it is absolutely impossible to be promoted once in the realm of a low-grade demon master without a year and a half of accumulation, and the higher you go, the more time and resources will be consumed.
The promotion of the demon master is not an easy task after all.
After resting for a while, the two of them started to rush again.
Basically, we keep the rhythm of starting early in the morning and resting in the afternoon.
With Long Wenmu's familiarity with the jungle, he avoided many dangers along the way.
Moreover, Long Wenmu is familiar with hunting, and he can deal with a lone demon when he encounters it.
Three days after encountering the ghost-faced demon ape, while resting, Yu Dashuai was absorbing the demon crystal, and his breath suddenly swelled, and his plain white increased by more than three or four times. The breath is disturbed, as if it is out of control.
However, this phenomenon lasted for a long time, and gradually calmed down.
The inflated breath also gradually retreated, and finally fixed to a certain extent.
Yu Dashuai opened his eyes.
"Promoted?" Long Wenmu squinted at him.
Yu Dashuai nodded and looked at his hands happily.
After all this time, he finally got promoted.
If you feel it carefully, the power you have now is more than twice as strong as before.
Long Wenmu sighed, this guy was finally promoted, if he didn't come out with him, but continued to stay in Yufu, and wanted to take this step, he didn't know that he would go to the Year of the Monkey.
Now that he has been promoted, I am afraid that the natal demon skill has also become stronger. Presumably, among the little demons, there is no existence that breaks his turtle shell.
Since the day he was promoted, Yu Dashuai has eaten the marrow and knows the taste, and he has worked harder in his cultivation. In addition to rushing to cultivate, there is a tendency to enter the demon.
The two were still crossing the mountain range, but to Long Wenmu's surprise, this mountain range was much larger than he expected.
And the further you go, the more demon beasts you encounter, and the stronger they become.
Fifteen days have passed since entering the mountain range, but the huge mountain range is still far away.
Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai were hiding in a tree, and in front of them was a huge demon beast like a mountain peak.
The demon beast landed on two feet and dragged a huge tail behind it, which was seventy or eighty feet high.
And above the sky, a bird-shaped demon beast with a height of eighty or ninety zhang roared down, fighting with the demon beast on the ground.
Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai hid and did not move, and the two big demons were fighting in front of them. Even if it's not a dragon, it's an extremely powerful being.
The battle between the two big demons was earth-shattering, and finally ended in the victory of the bird-shaped demon beast, the bird-shaped demon beast pecked out the source stone and Neidan of the other demon beast, swallowed it into its belly, and then rolled its wings into the hurricane and flew away.
Long Wenmu and Yu Dashuai couldn't help but swallow their saliva from the beginning to the end of this battle.
The two giant beasts are fighting, and this scene is not only spectacular.
"Where the hell have we been?" Yu Dashuai muttered to himself with shivers.
I only saw the little demon before, but now even the big demon has appeared, and I don't know what powerful existence I will encounter if I continue to walk.
Long Wenmu was too lazy to listen to his nagging, he had been gone for half a month, so he wouldn't turn back. If you look back, you will be delaying a month in vain.
Jumping down from the tree, before the other demon beasts arrived, he teamed up with Yu Dashuai to deal with the dead big demon.
