Chapter 199: Tracking
The north-south width of the further west mountain range spans a large distance, and even at the speed of the south of the Zhou, it will take at least ten days to completely cross it. And that's not even counting the troubles on the way, which will only be more time-consuming if delayed.
The psychedelic forest stretches for thousands of miles. The area is no less than that of the snake swamp ghost. It is located not far from the north-west of the Xuanhuo Sect, close to the north of the Instrument Sect. Zhou Nan will cross the farther west mountain range this time, and if he goes straight ahead, he will encounter it.
Although with his current strength, he may not necessarily be afraid of anything. But he didn't go on an expedition this time, and it would be good to save some time.
Therefore, Zhou Nan decided to play a side-kick and go around the edge of the psychedelic forest. Although this will take some time, it is generally the best option. It's not only safe, but also labor-saving.
The north and south sides of the mountain range further west are occupied by the Companion Beast Gate, the Heqi Sect, the Dan Sect, and the Corpse Puppet Sect. Although they also had violent conflicts, they did not directly open a battle line that stretched for tens of thousands of miles like the two countries and the four sects.
In the final analysis, although the Yan Kingdom is a little weak, the Qi Sect, the Dan Sect, and the Corpse Puppet Sect, who were born in the Yan Kingdom, are still very clear about the true strength of the other major sects. Even if the three of them are tied together, they can't take advantage of it.
Therefore, they will only cooperate with the four sects of the two countries, boiled frogs in warm water, and choose to nibble a little bit. But he didn't dare to make a big fanfare, he pressed too tightly, and fantasized that he would settle the situation in one fell swoop and finish the battle.
Therefore, it was precisely because of the rat traps of both sides that Zhou Nan had this opportunity to cross the mountains further west. Otherwise, even if he has great ability, he will definitely not be able to accomplish such a feat. slipped under the powerful noses of the three sects of the Instrument Sect.
I thought about the beginning, when I fled to the country of Yanfeng. Even passing by the first small pass, Zhou Nan also took a lot of effort. The ins and outs. conspiracy and conspiracy, and lost the lives of hundreds of monks in the foundation building period before breaking through. If the three families of the Instrument Sect do the same, then he Zhou Nan will definitely be sad.
The mountains further west are deep and densely forested, and many places are shrouded in a thick fog that cannot be dispersed. The forest is full of fierce beasts and poisonous insects, and even some plants have opened meat. It does not absorb nutrients from the soil, and picks on living creatures. One by one, like the man-eating vine. Ruthless and unusual. It seems to be harmless on the outside, but it is actually poisonous to the bones.
Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit. These plants sneak up and are super fast one by one. If you are not careful, you will be gnawed to the point that there is not even a slag left. Danger is everywhere and cannot be prevented. The only thing that can keep you safe is super strength.
In addition to plants, monsters, and poisonous insects. There is also a kind of horror that makes it difficult for people to sleep. That is. Very small, invisible, intangible, but real bugs. If you're not lucky enough to get bitten. It's infected, and it's basically dead and alive.
Therefore, in general. When immortal cultivators enter here, they will open the mana shield. Wrap yourself tightly and leave no gaps. I'm afraid I'm not careful. Caught the way of those worms. If that's the case, it's better to live than to die.
If a disciple in the Enlightenment Period is left here, he is basically delivering food. There is no second way to choose but to die. Fortunately, Zhou Nan's cultivation is profound, and some unnecessary troubles are easily avoided. Although the speed has decreased a bit, overall, it is still quite impressive, and it is not much worse than expected.
Three days later, Zhou Nan crossed the shallow mountains and went deep into the depths of the mountains further west, and came to the very edge of the psychedelic forest.
Standing on a huge ancient tree, Zhou Nan just glanced at it, and frowned for a while.
The psychedelic forest is very peculiar. It is foggy all year round, and under the combined action of sunlight, plants, and animals, it exudes brilliant colors. It is beautiful and impeccable, but it contains a great crisis.
Among them, the most terrifying is the elusive three-colored mist. Whoever is unlucky, will be encountered. will be erased alive and become an idiot. For a lifetime, you can only be like the walking dead, until you die of old age and be killed alive. Such a terrifying thing has long spread in Yan Kingdom.
After probing for a while, seeing that nothing was useful. Zhou Nan took out the map, observed it for a while, adjusted the direction, stuck to the edge of the psychedelic forest, and walked north.
A day later, Zhou Nan stayed on top of a big tree and had just eaten a few bites of food. Suddenly, he sighed lightly, his face froze, and he quickly restrained his breath and quickly hid it.
After a while, a group of miscellaneous monks dressed in different clothes surrounded the three old men and walked over with a cautious face. Because Zhou Nan hid in advance, none of these people found him. I just lingered for a while, identified the direction, and left in a hurry.
After half an hour, Zhou Nan appeared, looked at the direction in which the group of people left, and frowned unconsciously.
His eyes rolled a few times, and in an instant, Zhou Nan gritted his teeth fiercely and followed up.
In such an off-the-beaten-track place, there must be something strange about meeting so many strange people by chance. It's not that a ghost would come to such a place because he found something amazing. Therefore, Zhou Nan's long-lost curiosity instantly became active again.
Although he may encounter a lot of trouble with the past, he can't care about it so much. For immortal cultivators, any chance is precious. Not only to fight with the sky, but also with people. Even if you have a clear conscience, it is not a big deal to rob other people's property and kill people and seize treasures. Everything is for resources, for cultivation. If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed.
The group of people was in a very directional way, and it was obvious that they didn't break into here casually. There must be something that guides them. What can make so many monks in the foundation building period interested, even if Zhou Nan's vision is very high, he can't hold back his impatience.
In this way, Zhou Nan was like a tail, firmly falling behind the figures of these people.
In the blink of an eye, the day passed, and these people showed no sign of stopping. Although he was very urgent and excited, Zhou Nan also knew that this matter was urgent, and he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he still needed patience. Holding back his emotions, Zhou Nan followed closely.
And just like that, another three days passed. The group came to a halt before coming to a huge valley.
"Xue Daoyou, is this place?" asked a thin man with a pale face after looking up at his surroundings.
"Yes, this is it. You look at those two peaks, such a special appearance, exactly the same as the message given by the black zombie, you can't be wrong. The old man surnamed Xue stretched out his old fingers, pointed to the two strange-looking peaks in front of him, and said slowly.
"That's right, it's the same message that guy gave. It's just that black zombie is cunning, could there be something wrong with this news?" the other gray-clothed old man frowned and said suspiciously. Obviously, he has his own opinion on zombies.
"Hehe, Qian Daoyou, you are too careful. Don't you still be able to trust the adult? It's just to borrow a dare from that black zombie, and forgive him for not daring to expire the adult and get a fake news out. The third gray-haired old man turned around and said with a grin.
"That's right, I hope the old man is more careful. The gray-clothed old man pondered for a moment, lowered his brows, and breathed a sigh of relief.
In this inaccessible place, the group was unaware of the presence of others. Therefore, their voices were all open, and Zhou Nan, who was hiding four hundred meters away, heard them clearly without accident.
"You, you, you. The three of you will stay here, waiting for me to come out, and the rest of you will cheer up, in groups of five, and we will go in. ”
The monk surnamed Xue casually pointed to the three monks in the early stage of foundation building, and gave a faint order. He led the others, and without any further stop, the fish ran between the two mountains and disappeared.
Hiding a few hundred meters away, seeing the monk surnamed Xue arranged it like this, Zhou Nan frowned.
Between these two mountains, there is such an entrance. Now that he is guarded, he can't get in without some effort. If you take a detour elsewhere, it is easy to lose the target. In the depths of this mountain, if you lose someone, it is basically difficult to find it again.
After waiting for a while, looking at the figures of the four people, Zhou Nan's eyes became cold. Anyway, these guys are too poor in strength. The quickest way to do this is to get rid of them and go straight to the front. Anyway, there are a lot of people killed, and Zhou Nan doesn't care about these lives.
Having made up his mind, Zhou Nan sneered. Carefully turned to a proper position, and stomped on the spring boots. In a flash of silver light, Zhou Nan turned into a cannonball. With this terrifying might, a piercing sonic boom quickly killed the three of them.
Sensing the explosion in the air, the three of them were startled. I wanted to prepare again, but it was too late. The sealed dragon coffin was thrown high, and two muffled sounds of 'bang' came, and Zhou Nan solved the two of them in an instant, and his right hand directly pinched the neck of the third person.
This is physical cultivation, because there is no force. As long as the breath is restrained, it is difficult for others to detect. Otherwise, if it were to be replaced, Zhou Nan would still have to spend some time trying to solve the three monks in the foundation building period.
With the slow exertion of his right hand, the monk suddenly rolled his eyes, struggled desperately, and let out a scream that was as if it were nothing and was extremely inaudible. But with Zhou Nan's terrifying power, how could he succeed in breaking free? He could only gradually soften, and closed his eyes unwillingly.
stunned the monk, Zhou Nan didn't say a word, and directly performed the soul searching technique.
With the strength of the divine soul of the Great Perfection level of foundation building, the strength of the divine soul in the early stage of foundation building. When the black mist rolled, it didn't take long for Zhou Nan to get a piece of news that shocked him. (To be continued......)
