As a result, the Shadow Blade slammed into the air, slicing through the mist, splitting a dead wood in two and smashing a nearby boulder into pieces.

"Ahhh

Zhang Yan was also stunned on the spot, but he ignored the young man's vicious words, stared at the place where the skull powder was still left, and subconsciously released his divine sense, and swept around with this place as the center.

But after a long time, there was still a trace of the young man in the empty space for miles.

"It's a weird escape technique, look at the skull wooden staff and the vicious technique, it should be the son of the Xiuzhen family under the White Bone Gate. ”

Beckoning back to the Shadow Blade, Zhang Yan took the storage bags of the other two dead youths and muttered to himself.

It was only a few breaths between the two young men who were killed, and then the young man with the skull wooden staff who fled in terror.

Luo Da, who was leaning on the edge of the boulder to meditate and heal his wounds, was already full of horror and incredulity, a monk who was only at the eighth level of the Qi Refining Period actually killed two Qi Refining Stage Nine Layers in the blink of an eye, and another fled in fear, this is not at all the strength that a casual cultivator can have.

Wrong!

This Daoist Zhang was only at the seventh level of the Qi Refining Period before entering the Troubled Water Valley, and in just two days, he actually broke through to the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Period in this dangerous assessment place, such a cultivation speed, coupled with such strength and age, the future is immeasurable.

Such a person, not to mention being able to stammer, at least cannot offend and imprint a bad impression.

Since his practice, he has lived a life of casual cultivation that has been hunted down, bullied, and suppressed by others, and he has experienced many times of life and death, but he still sees people quite accurately.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Luo Da couldn't help but take a deep breath, his right hand covered the blood-stained left shoulder wrapped in a good gel, stood up with difficulty, and solemnly thanked Zhang Yan: "Thanks to Zhang Daoyou this time, otherwise Fang Cai's life would have to be explained here, the grace of saving his life, Luo has nothing to repay, he can only be grateful!"

"Daoist friends are serious, after all, we have experienced the Divine Dao together, and it can be regarded as a common hardship, but now it's just a gesture. ”

Zhang Yan looked at the other party who seemed to be extremely excited, so he had to touch his nose in embarrassment, shook his head slightly, and said softly.

Luo Da was seriously injured, not only lost his left arm, his internal organs were shocked, but also his soul was affected by the breath exhaled by the skull, and the whole person was weak.

Now in this state, Luo Da can no longer participate in the battle for the remaining elixir.

After the last moment, Zhang Yan took out some healing elixirs and Qi Induction Pills to restore mana, and pointed out to the other party the hidden cave he had dug out, so that he could meditate and heal his wounds there with peace of mind.

Luo Da also understood that the competition for the elixir would be more fierce and dangerous, and if he participated in it like this now, it would only be a way to fall, so he hurriedly left in the direction indicated by Zhang Yan.

After separating from Luoda, Zhang Yan unceremoniously took possession of the soul hunter beast on the ground who had been dead for a long time due to excessive blood loss.

The third-level demon beast has already preliminarily condensed the demon pill, and it is still this kind of extremely rare soul hunting beast outside, and the demon pill is very valuable.

In addition to the Demon Pill, the valuable things on the Soul Hunter's body are the huge and tough unicorn and the rough skin of the defense.

It's a pity that this soul hunter beast can only be regarded as a young soul hunting beast, and its skin has not completely metamorphosed, so it is a little reluctant to make it into a defensive magic weapon.

However, Zhang Yan didn't care, everything that was valuable, he would catch it in his hands first, so in less than a moment, the skin of the soul hunting beast was stripped off by him two or three times, and the rough and hard horn was also cut off from his head.

When taking out the demon pill from the head of the soul hunting beast, Zhang Yan couldn't help but sigh in surprise.

This was the first time he had seen the demon pill of the demon beast, the demon pill of this soul hunting beast was only the size of a pigeon's egg, round as jade, and dark black all over, the important thing was that there was a small black smoke in the demon pill and then slowly swimming, which made him very surprised.

After packing everything up, with safety as the first criterion, Zhang Yan sent out a fire bullet technique, burning the corpses of the two young men and the soul hunter beast together, erasing all traces.

Standing in place and hesitating for a long time, Zhang Yan seemed to remember something, took off the ancient umbrella from behind his back, and put it in the storage bag.

As for the storage bag he had obtained from the two young men who had died, he did not look at it, but gathered his belongings into one of them and hung them around his waist.

"It doesn't matter if you can collect enough elixir for the assessment this time, but the Tieyang grass must be in your hands, as well as the storage bag that was snatched away by the mysterious young man, and there is the other half of the jade slip in it, so you must find a way to get it. ”

Zhang Yan groaned for a while, looked at the north, and rushed to the depths of the Demon Hunting Forest.

The Demon Hunting Forest was dozens of miles away, and it took Zhang Yan an hour to rush to the depths of the Demon Hunting Forest.

Along the way, everywhere you passed, you could see broken and fallen dead wood, as well as smashed and cracked boulders, and from time to time you could see the corpses of soul hunters who had been decomposed and took away the unicorn of the demon pill.

During this period, there were also the corpses of some dead monks, some of their eyes were white, their faces were terrified, and some of them were directly cut in half, and their heads were in different places, which should have been killed by others in the competition for elixir and soul hunting beast demon pills.

Along the way, the corpses of soul hunters and other demon beasts gradually increased, and the corpses of dead monks were also displayed among dead trees and boulders from time to time, which made Zhang Yan shocked, and a chill rose in his heart.

However, in this way, Zhang Yan's journey was much smoother, unimpeded, and he almost didn't encounter any demon beasts, thinking that the demon beasts on the road were either killed, or driven to the depths of the demon hunting forest by the monks in front.

After walking a short distance into the depths of the Demon Hunting Forest, a forest of dead trees and boulders was already there, and a rather open field appeared in front of you.

At the end of the field, not a few miles away, was a huge black mountain.

To be precise, it is a dark and desolate mountain with no vegetation or trees on it.

Steep and straight, stretching northward, a series of rolling black smoke drifted out of the mountain, in stark contrast to the green fields below.

On the rather vast field below, there was already a group of monks gathered in the black press, about a few hundred people.

The number of people Zhang Yan saw before entering the Demon Hunting Forest was only a thousand, and there were at least a thousand monks who came one after another after participating in the assessments of other sects.

Now it has suddenly decreased by more than half, and the number of casualties is really shocking.

"It seems that this soul hunting beast is not easy to deal with, and I don't know if these people know the existence of Tieyang Grass. ”

Zhang Yan thought secretly, and walked towards the crowd from the edge of the Demon Hunting Forest, looking for the location of Li Qian and the others.

Now there are all kinds of loose cultivators rushing over from the forest, and Zhang Yan's appearance is not abrupt, nor does it attract the attention of others.

It's just that hundreds of people are sitting or standing or talking in a low voice, and it is still easy to find a few people, Zhang Yan soon saw Li Qian and a few people, who were sitting on the grass not far from everyone, as for Zeng Yuexiong, Xu Yuan and others who had been scattered with everyone before, they also returned to the team.

However, to Zhang Yan's surprise, Lu Boyun and Zhuo Dian, Xu Yuan and others, who were holding their sister in their arms, all looked at the other side with wary faces, and their eyes flashed with worry.

Zhang Yan couldn't help but pause, following the gazes of several people.
