An imposing ancient city that stands on the edge of the black earth. In the ancient city, all kinds of tall buildings stand like dense forests, and it seems to be a prosperous place. But if you look closely, you will find that most of these buildings are dilapidated and dusty, and it is clear that they have been abandoned for a long time. Only the caravan that walked on the road that ran from south to north through the whole city added a little vitality to this lifeless ancient city.

This mortal caravan, about one hundred and twenty-three people, carried more than twenty carts. Most of these people are big men with swords and swords, and the rest are men, sedan chairmen and two old mothers. It would have been difficult to keep quiet as such a team was marching, but there was hardly any movement in front of the group except for the slightly heavy breathing and the occasional 'squeak' from the cart. It turned out that not only did they wrap rags around the wheels and hooves of the carts, but they also stuffed short wooden sticks in the mouths of the horses that pulled the carts, which were tied together with chews to prevent them from making noises.

Suddenly, more than ten miles in front of the horse team, a huge rune light array appeared, and there was a faint figure in the light array. This runic light array is so obvious. Even a mortal caravan more than a dozen miles away could see it clearly. The rune light array only flashed a few times, and then quickly dimmed, but the faces of the caravan people who saw this scene changed greatly, and they all stopped, not daring to move forward again.

The figure in the rune light array is, of course, Mo Chong. When Mo Chong saw the scenery in front of him, he was stunned for a moment, then 'fluttered', spurted out a mouthful of blood, and half-knelt on the ground. Of course, this is because Mo Chong was seriously injured, but there is another reason, and that is the air here. He had just taken a breath of air, and immediately felt a surge of blood in his chest, and he was dizzy. In the heaven and earth here, in addition to the five elements aura, there is also a faint demonic aura. How could Mo Chong, a monk who had been breathing and breathing out the aura of the five elements, stand it, not to mention that he was seriously injured?

"Rustle, rustle. ”

Finally suppressed the churning qi and blood in his chest for a while, and Mo Chong heard a slight sound of footsteps in his ears. Mo Chong looked up and immediately saw a large man with agile skills in the distance leaning cautiously towards this side. This person does not have mana aura on his body, but the meridians of Mo Chong under him are very damaged, and even if he is an ordinary mortal, he can kill him at any time. Mo Chong secretly smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand and tugged at his waist, and quietly threw the spirit beast bag and storage bag into the pile of rubble on the side.

Mo Chong knew very well in his heart that now he was powerless, and carrying the spirit beast bag and storage bag belonging to the immortal cultivator would only provoke death. Anyway, now that he has lost all his mana, it is better to pretend to be a mortal, maybe there is still a glimmer of life. He just regretted it a little, why did he forget to open the spirit beast bag when the mana leaked before. He was no longer able to protect the little medicine king snake, he should have opened the spirit beast bag and let it be free. Now, it can only wait for it to break through the spirit beast bag and come out. Can it do it?

The eyesight of the big man in the shape of a man obviously couldn't be compared with Mo Chong, who had reached the foundation building stage of cultivation, until he was more than a hundred zhang away from Mo Chong, and he saw Mo Chong's face clearly. Seeing that Mo Chong was a human being, the big man breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Hey, who are you? Why are you here alone, what is the light just now?"

Mo Chong was about to say something, but the pain in the meridians in his body suddenly became intense again, Mo Chong's face turned pale, and then he 'pounced' and fell to the ground. Before he fell to the ground, Mo Chong vaguely saw the big man suddenly pull out the big knife at his waist. It's a pity that Mo Chong at this time, apart from smiling bitterly in his heart, what else can he do?

I don't know how long it took. Mo Chong woke up from his coma. As soon as he regained his senses, he immediately heard a low woman's voice: "...... Uncle Fu, do you think this person is an immortal cultivator?"

"Probably not. An old voice quickly spoke: "The old man has also healed the injuries of the immortal masters. No matter how injured the immortal masters are, their meridians are much stronger than those of us mortals. But this person's meridians are very weak, and he has almost reached the point where his life hangs by a thread. If he hadn't been able to breathe, I'd have thought he was dead. ”

The woman sighed lightly and said, "Alas, it turned out to be not. Then I'm gone. When the young lady heard that she had rescued a person who might be an immortal cultivator, she was very curious and wanted to come over and take a look herself. I'll go back and sue her now. ”

The old voice said, "Yes." The old man also went out. Alas. This person's injuries are so serious, and there are not many medicinal materials available here, so it is still a matter of two to say tonight. When you go back, you talk nonsense, so as not to scare the young lady. With the words of the old voice, there was a soft 'squeak', as if the car door was opened, and then there was a 'bang', and the car door closed again.

As soon as the two left, Mo Chong opened his eyes. The first thing that catches your eye is the black-brown roof, then the black-brown windows and black-brown doors. He was now lying in a large carriage. Mo Chong slowly raised his hand and lifted the thin quilt covering his body. At this time, the green clothes on his body had been cut by a knife, his upper body was close to **, and there were several circles of gauze wrapped around the wound on his chest, and then there was a strong and pungent smell of medicine.

There was no pain in the wound, and Mo Chong's mind was also abnormally clear. He was so badly injured that he shouldn't have come to his senses so quickly. But Mo Chong instantly figured it out, it was a return to the light. Time is running out for myself. Strangely, Mo Chong did not feel scared or frightened by this, but had a faint sense of relief and relief. Many past experiences, like marquees, automatically flew by in front of Mo Chong's eyes.

The days when he was taken in by the people of the Ye family since he was a child and was called and drunk in Yejiacheng; the situation when Yejiacheng was besieged and he was escorted out of the city by himself as a young city lord; Steward Li temporarily rebelled, and the two fought for the key to the Ye family's treasure house; Tan Biao, who desperately saved him, later Yuheng Palace, and Li Baimei, the mortal master who taught him martial arts......

Yes, Master Li Baimei ...... He also has a master, Li Baimei. However, since he joined the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he had hardly thought of this master again. With the means of his own immortal cultivator, it was easy to get some elixir for Li Baimei, an old man to strengthen his body and prolong his life, but he never thought about it. It turns out that he is such a heartless person......

Mo Chong continued to reminisce, and soon remembered the situation when he met Zhao Xuening at the beginning. Thinking of Zhao Xuening, a soft smile first appeared on the corner of Mo Chong's mouth, and then the smile turned into bitterness. I will probably never see this beloved woman again. Does she feel sad for herself, does she feel sorry for herself, does she think of herself once in a while on a sunny day, or on a silent night?

Anyway, she's alive and well, and I didn't die at the hands of those people. Mo Chong shook his head vigorously, throwing the negative feelings out of his mind. His time was running out, and he didn't want to spend any more time grieving. It's a pity that there are some things, the more you don't want to, the more you come to mind. Two lines of crystal tears flowed down Mo Chong's cheeks: "Ning'er ......" He regretted it very much. In the end, I still didn't use this affectionate name for her.

"Boy, that's the end of the love affair, if you don't want to really fall here. A clear man's voice remembered in Mo Chong's mind. With three points of exhaustion, three points of disdain, three points of ridicule, and one point of helplessness and anger.

As soon as he heard this voice, Mo Chong's expression suddenly changed, and the tenderness in his heart disappeared instantly. With a gloomy face, he said, "Hmph, you're not dead yet!, what tricks do you want to play?"

The man said, "Hey, little one. The deity is a demon. Even those old guys in the upper realm can only respectfully call Lord Demon Venerable when they see the deity. You kid is talking to me like that?"

Mo Chong was unmoved, and sneered: "Hmph." If you're really so powerful, how can you be sealed? And you're cheeky enough to compete with a little guy like me who has not dried up for the flesh?"

"You...... Hmph, if it weren't for the old guy of Ziwei Xingjun, who set up an ambush...... Hmph, in vain to call Xingjun, he actually used such an unsightly and indiscriminate method......"

"Gotcha, gotcha. Anyway, I'm 'I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the ones who come after'. How you want to blow, naturally it's up to you. Mo Chong didn't wait for the man to finish speaking, and immediately interrupted. Then he slowly closed his eyes, and said slowly: "Master time is running out, you have to use the only time left to think about my sister, you can wash and sleep for me if you are fine." ”

When the man heard Mo Chong's words, he paused, obviously stunned, and then laughed and said, "Ha! hahahahaha! Interesting, interesting! You kid is much more interesting than the dozens of hosts before." Don't worry, with the deity, you can't die. Of course, if you want to die yourself, you can't do it. ”

When Mo Chong heard this, his face turned grim, and he immediately remembered what happened before. Before, the other party used strength as bait, ** let go of his defense, which allowed the demonic qi to invade the body. But Mo Chong soon smiled bitterly. Not to mention that there is no mana left in his body now, even the meridians have been shattered, and if the other party has any means, he will not be able to resist it. Thinking of this, Mo Chong was a little tired and said, "No need to talk too much." My flesh is in tatters. Take it if you want. Anyway, the master himself is quite tired of watching it. ”

"Whew. Hahahaha. The man laughed again, and seemed to be very cheerful: "You kid seems to be very open-minded, and you don't want to be so rigid and difficult to talk to those guys before." To be honest, your flesh deity is also very disgusted now. Let's make a deal. The deity will save you now, and you will do something for the deity, how about it?"

"No, I can't. Mo Chong categorically refused without thinking about it. In fact, he didn't bother to think about it. Fighting with an old monster who doesn't know how long he's lived, it's definitely for nothing, and the wisest way is not to be contaminated.

The man obviously didn't expect Mo Chong to refuse so quickly, so he was stunned for a moment before he said, "What, don't you kid want to live?

Mo Chong pursed his lips and said, "Lao Tzu has long been tired of living. If you're sincere, save me. If you want to be a flowery intestine, just shut up, Lao Tzu is not available. No matter who you are, it's not as tight as Lao Tzu's time now. ”

"Haha!" the man laughed for the third time. In the laughter, there seems to be a soft taste. This time, there was no need for Mo Chong to say anything, the man had already explained himself: "The meridians and dantian in your body have been damaged, to be honest, if you hadn't protected a trace of the source of life for you before being driven out of your body, you would have died a long time ago." But now I can't protect it. Fortunately, you still have a treasure on you that can save your life. Just take it out......"

"Stop, stop! I have treasures on me, I don't know, but everything is in Qiankun Nali. I don't have any mana right now, how do you tell me to take things out?Tell me this nonsense, it's a waste of time!" Mo Chong interrupted disdainfully without waiting for the man to finish. He really despises it now, and he still talks this nonsense.

The man was interrupted by Mo Chong, but he was not angry, and when Mo Chong finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Don't worry." That thing is not in Qiankunna, you keep it close to you. ”

Hearing the man say this, Mo Chong's heart moved, and he immediately remembered that he had indeed hidden something close to him, so he immediately stretched out his hand with great difficulty, and groped under him for a while, and a small bronze mirror smaller than a palm was touched out by Mo Chong. The small bronze mirror seems to be light-seeking, but it can't illuminate anything. On the back is carved a picture of a raging flame with a phoenix flying out of flames. It was something that was obtained by sweeping the lair of the Demon Fire Gate monks in Daping City.

"This is a stand-in treasure. To put it simply, it is to be able to die in lieu of death. No matter what mortal attack you receive, you can be stopped. However, the level is a little low, and I can only save you little monks who don't even have a primordial baby. Of course, it can't stop you from committing suicide. So, before your own self-harming attack, this treasure didn't work. Now, you follow the method I said and activate it. First, dip some blood ......"

It's certainly a good thing to be able to not die. And now that he is dying, Mo Chong doesn't bother to think about whether the other party is calculating him. Immediately act in the way the other person is told. According to the man's voice in his head, Mo Chong used blood to draw a line of twisted and strange runes of unknown meaning on the bronze mirror. When the last stroke of the rune was completed, the small bronze mirror suddenly flashed, and a mini phoenix with a size of only two or three inches wrapped in flames flew out of the bronze mirror and pounced into Mo Chong's body.

Mo Chong only felt a warmth in his body, and then, he could even feel the dantian and meridians in his body rapidly reorganizing and healing, and the injuries on his chest and everywhere were also quickly closed, Mo Chong tore open the gauze on his chest with his hands and peeled off the herbs applied to it. His movements were undoubtedly a little slow, and at this time, the wound on his chest had been completely closed, leaving only a white scar in the shape of a palm, and around the scar, a faint red light slowly advanced towards the center. The red light passed, and the originally white scar immediately returned to the pale yellow complexion before the injury. This qiē happened right under Mo Chong's eyelids, and after a few breaths, the scar on his chest completely disappeared, and the red light disappeared.

'Such a god!?' Mo Chong was stunned for a moment, then remembered the small bronze mirror that caused this miracle, and immediately looked down. At this time, the small bronze mirror has dimmed a lot, and the original light mirror seems to be covered with a layer of dust, and there are rust stains on it.

"It's okay, it's okay, it didn't disappear directly, although it looks a little haggard, it should still be able to be used for a time or two, right?" Mo Chong stretched out his hand while taking a closer look at the little bronze mirror, but the moment his fingertips touched the little bronze mirror, the little bronze mirror suddenly 'fluttered' and turned into a pile of powder.

"Well, I didn't lie to you. Isn't it good now?" the man's voice sounded in Mo Chong's head again.

Mo Chong was silent for a moment, and said, "What about my cultivation, why don't I still have the slightest mana in my body? If it is a stand-in treasure, it should have been to let the monk recover to his heyday before he was injured." You can't do anything, do you?"

"It's okay for you to say, the stand-in treasure doesn't care if you kill yourself. That's just restoration, repairing your body. When you wrote the runes, your body didn't have the slightest mana, how can the stand-in treasure get a mana out for you!?" The man's tone seemed a little unhappy. And for good reason. Whoever does something with all his heart and soul will be suspicious, and his heart will not be happy.

"Well, thank you. If you don't have anything to say, I'll go to sleep. Mo Chong didn't seem to have the slightest guilt about doubting the man.

"Hmph. The man was obviously even more unhappy, and said coldly: "Boy, I am going to sleep, and I will not appear again in thirty or fifty years." Now that your life has been saved, don't die halfway. Lao Tzu finally came out of the dungeon, but he didn't want to be sealed by anyone again. ”

Mo Chong's heart moved, and he said, "I still have something to ask, who are you?"

"Huh...... Next time, let's talk about it next time......" The man seemed to smile, and his voice grew farther and farther away, until at last he could no longer be heard. Mo Chong rolled up his sleeves. The black line that originally stretched from the bronze bracer to the heart was now only a short section to the elbow.

"What a chance! If I cultivate as before, the black line will regress, and I only need to work hard to cultivate, and I can force the black line back to the bronze bracer, and then will I be able to get rid of this calamity?"

Mo Chong's mind raced, but he soon let out a wry smile. The aura of heaven and earth here is so thin that it is mixed with demonic energy, and I don't know what the hell it is. It seems unlikely that this kind of place will be cultivated in a hurry. And he didn't think that the demon would let go of such a great opportunity for himself, most likely there was any connection between him, the bronze bracer and the demon, but unfortunately he didn't have a chance to ask just now.
