Chapter 4: The Cloud Mountains
There is a large mountain range in the northwest of Qinghe City, called Yunwu Mountain. Yunwu Mountain stretched for tens of thousands of miles, spanning thousands of miles, like a jade belt separating Qinghe City in its southeast direction. Yunwu Mountain is usually shrouded in mist, hence the name. The residents of Qinghe City rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water, and most of their livelihoods depend on this Yunwu Mountain. Yunwu Mountain is about ten miles away from the city. After Chu Shan left the city, he walked around casually, and unconsciously walked to the foot of the mountain. Chu Shan thought that if he came from, he would be safe. So he went into the mountains.
On the outskirts of the mountain, the trees are not tall, but some shrubs are predominant. As you walk down the mountain road, the trees gradually increase. The big trees are shady, the bottom is intertwined, and there are even many roads that are directly blocked, if it weren't for Chu Shan's huge strength and sufficient body, it is obvious that he would not be able to go here. Before I knew it, two hours had passed, and Chu Shan didn't know how far he had gone, because Chu Shan was lost, and there was the same scenery everywhere here, and it was covered with a layer of white mist, which made it even more difficult for people to distinguish directions. At this moment, Chu Shan heard the sound of running water. Chu Shan couldn't help but be shocked, where there is water, there must be a stream, and you will definitely be able to walk out along the stream in the mountains and forests. After a while, Chu Shan really saw a small stream, the water of the stream was extremely clear, the depth was less than three feet, and there was no end in sight at a glance.
Chu Shan was not in a hurry, wandering around in the mountains and forests, and soon saw some medicinal materials that were vintage, and even once encountered a ginseng that was more than 100 years old. This made Chu Shan excited, he didn't expect that there were so many elixirs in this mountain, it was simply an elixir storehouse, and after discovering this place a few years earlier, Chu Shan might have achieved even higher. Seeing that it was not early, Chu Shan found a big tree, and there were branches staggered one foot from the ground, like a big bed, and Chu Shan was ready to spend the night on it. When he woke up in the morning, Chu Shan couldn't help but be overjoyed, it turned out that the spiritual energy in the mountain was sufficient, and the cultivation effect here was three or four times that of the family. In this way, in less than four years, you will definitely be able to cultivate the spleen space to the Great Perfection realm, and maybe you will be able to open up the lung space. However, now is not a good time to cultivate, and there may be time when you will encounter poisonous insects and beasts outside. Just as Chu Shan was about to leave, he saw a big python on the opposite side confronting a big ape. The python is about more than a zhang long and the thickness of a bucket. Hold your head high, spitting out the core, and a pair of jasper eyes show a sensen's light. The ape on the opposite side exuded a violent aura, bared its teeth and grinned, and its hands were still gesturing. About half an hour later, both sides were looking for each other's flaws, but they both had some scruples, so neither dared to move. Just when Chu Shan couldn't bear it anymore, the python moved, like a feathered arrow off the string, and before Chu Shan could react, the python was about to bite the ape's throat. At this moment, the ape's claws moved, like a python's seven-inch grasp, and at the same time, his neck was crooked, avoiding the fatal blow of the big python. In this way, the ape grabbed the seven inches of the python, and the python entangled the ape, and the two sides confronted each other again, but this time it was different from the last time, this time it was a life-and-death battle, and whoever couldn't hold on first would become the prey of the other party. So both sides refused to relax, and the ape's iron claws directly tore open the seven inches of the python, and the python used its last strength to directly strangle the ape into two sections. With the end of the same fate, Chu Shan couldn't help but be stunned.
But this is a good thing, Chu Shan walked towards the place where the snakes and monkeys died together, the place was not far, only about ten miles. Soon it will be there. After coming here, a strong smell of blood came to the nostrils, and the ape's broken body was simply bloody, and the internal organs were scattered everywhere. The death of the python was much better, only seven inches were scratched, and it was almost cut in two. You can still see the blood flowing out. Seeing this scene, it took Chu Shan a while to come back to his senses. Looking around, I found that there was silence all around, and even the sound of insects and birds was gone, probably due to the pressure of pythons and apes.
There was a cave in the place where the two died, only more than one person high, Chu Shan had to take a look in the cave first, and found that one qiē was normal, so he dragged the corpses of the ape and the python in. And a pair of firewood was built at the mouth of the cave, and part of the meat of the python and the ape was cut off and barbecued. Then he found the inner tank of the python and swallowed it directly.
After a while, Chu Shan felt a huge amount of energy emanating from his stomach, and hurriedly stood up the Tai Chi pile, and picked up the Taixuan Sutra, although he felt that he was almost about to burst, but he still resisted it, running the Taixuan Sutra over and over again, almost numb, and his thinking gradually began to loosen. Just when Chu Shan thought that he couldn't hold on any longer, the energy that almost killed Chu Shan poured into his spleen like a sea of rivers, and it was quickly absorbed, although it was not completely refined, but it only took three or five days. The space of the spleen has increased from three inches to four inches in an instant.
After Chu Shan woke up, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he almost died after walking through the ghost gate just now. Chu Shan found that it seemed that he couldn't get carried away at any time, although he had more than forty years of experience in his previous life and this life combined, he had not yet cultivated his qi cultivation kung fu. After this lesson, Chu Shan's state of mind has been sublimated, which is a key turning point for Chu Shan's countless adventures in the future.
Chu Shan found that snakes and monkeys are not simple, they are not ordinary demon beasts, otherwise how could the inner tank of an ordinary demon beast almost burst itself, and his own strength is almost comparable to the strength of the Great Perfection in the Qi Training Period, and the body is even more difficult for a monk in the Foundation Building Period to catch up. So he searched inch by inch in this mountain, and finally he found a different place. In a corner of the depths of the cave, although what he saw in his eyes was an ordinary corner, but where his hand touched the wall, he directly reached in, and Chu Shan found that he had encountered the legendary phantom array. But after Chu Shan found out, he was silent, thinking about whether to go in or not. Chu Shan saw that the corpses of pythons and apes were enough for Chu Shan to eat for a few days, so Chu Shan could think about it slowly.
Chu Shan saw the last piece of snake meat in his hand, but he still didn't make up his mind. On the one hand, he thought that he would be able to enter the Taixuanmen smoothly in four years, and on the other hand, Chu Shan still did not want to give up his chance. After thinking back and forth for several days, Chu Shan still didn't make up his mind. However, just when Chu Shan hesitated, a wolf howl outside helped Chu Shan make a decision. When I went to the outside of the cave, it was densely packed with wolves. The situation that Chu Shan was worried about appeared, and the smell of blood here finally attracted some beasts.
Seeing that there were many wild beasts coming outside the wolf pack, Chu Shan no longer hesitated, there was still a glimmer of life when he entered the phantom array; What Chu Shan didn't know was that after his figure submerged into the phantom array, the space shook with ripples, and the wall was still the original wall, but the formation disappeared. It turned out that this was not a phantom array, but a miniature teleportation array, capable of teleporting a person thousands of miles away.
Chu Shan only felt that the blue light flashed, and he appeared in a strange place. This is a valley where the seasons are like spring, and there are no fierce monsters, but there are some small beasts within the hares. The valley is full of flowers, and it is surrounded by cliffs, and it seems that there is no way out. However, Chu Shan was not in a hurry, there was a way that was endless. Looking around, he found that there was a stone house at the foot of the cliff, and Chu Shan walked over. This time, Chu Shan encountered a big opportunity again, which opened the door to cultivation for him.
