Chapter 52: Desolate Mountains
After carefully identifying the words on the silk cloth, Yannuo searched on the map and finally recognized that the location of the ancient ruins was actually the Desolate Mountains.
Yannuo couldn't help but be startled. He had heard of the Desolate Mountains, but according to cultivators' rumors, it was a paradise for monsters and a hell for cultivators.
The wild mountains stretch for hundreds of thousands of miles. There are countless rare medicinal herbs and wild and exotic monsters in the mountains. The average monks only walk on the outside of the mountains. There are few monks who set foot inside the mountains. It is said that monsters in the transformation period
There are also many beasts in the wild mountains.
According to the map on the parchment, the ruins of the ancient cultivators should be on the outskirts of the Wild Mountains, and they can be reached with their own strength.
Yannuo thought about it for a while and made up his mind to escape to the wild mountains.
Fortunately, the Huangmang Mountains are only tens of thousands of miles away from the Yuxiao Sect. Yannuo arrived at the foot of the Huangmang Mountains six or seven days later. Looking at the endless green and black peaks in front of him, Yannuo let out a long breath, knowing that this was the case.
The crime was extremely dangerous, so he found an inn to stay overnight in a small town in the mortal world.
Yannuo made full preparations for this trip to the Huangmang Mountains in the small town. It was still dark and the residents of the town were still sleeping, so Yannuo went out to catch the breeze and walked towards the Huangmang Mountains.
At dawn in the east, Yannuo, who was flying in the air against the wind, saw monks walking in groups in twos and threes escaping towards the deserted mountains. At the entrance of the mountains, there were three casual cultivators still recruiting people. When those few casual cultivators saw that Yannuo was alone, they came up.
Recruited, but was politely declined by Yan Nuo.
Under the surprised gazes of all the casual cultivators, Yannuo walked into the mountain forest alone. Many casual cultivators couldn't help but laugh. The depths of this mountain range are dangerous and unpredictable. If you enter this deep mountain alone, you may be in trouble if you are not careful.
When the body dies, the path disappears.
Entering the wild mountains, Yannuo did not dare to brave the wind anymore, fearing that monsters would pop up from the dense woods and attack him at any time. It was recorded that monks in the Danjie period relied on their cultivation to fight against the wind in the mountains.
Walking in the air, the monster in the transformation stage swallowed it into the body and turned it into excrement. After that, the old monster in the Nascent Soul stage did not dare to fly in the air lightly in the wild mountains.
There are rumors from monks that there is a fifth-level monster king in the deepest part of the Wild Mountains. His cultivation level is equivalent to that of an old monster in the human god-transformation stage. And the fifth-level monster king's cultivation level is even stronger than that of a human god-level monk.
Going one step further, this is the real king of this mountain range.
He took out the piece of parchment and carefully identified the specific location. Yannuo used a lightening technique and walked gently through the forest. After a short walk, he only heard the sound of fighting coming from the front.
Looking along the sound, I saw not far away two monks in the Qi Refining stage, an old man and a young man, fighting with a first-level high-grade demonic red flower poisonous python. The poisonous python was about six to seven feet long, as thick as a bucket, and its size
Although it is not huge, the venom sprayed from the python's mouth is extremely poisonous. Flowers, plants and trees will wither and wither if even a trace of it is touched.
At this time, the old and young people were in danger, and the spiritual weapons in their hands were already stained by the venom spit out by the poisonous python. When they saw Yannuo passing by the wind in the forest, they shouted loudly: "Fellow Taoist!
Come and save my two lives, and I will thank you!"
Seeing the old and young people struggling to support themselves, Yannuo couldn't bear to have his fellow monks die in the mouths of monsters. He immediately used a pair of sun and moon wheels to attack the red flower poisonous python. Although the poisonous python was huge in size, it was also able to dodge easily.
He dodged a pair of sun and moon wheels. The flying swords, the spiritual weapons of the young and old, also pierced in front of the poisonous python. How could the poisonous python avoid the combined efforts of the three of them? In just a few rounds, it was injured and in pain.
Jumping deep into the jungle.
How could the three of them let the poisonous python escape? The sun and moon wheel in mid-air passed over the poisonous python's neck again. The huge python's heads were all cut off. The headless python's body rolled around on the ground, with a radius of several meters.
The trees within ten feet were broken, and sand and rocks flew everywhere, creating a mess.
The young and old came to Yannuo's side and clasped their fists and said, "Thank you fellow Taoist for saving your life! This evil beast and the herbs it protects belong to your fellow Taoist!"
He glanced at the poisonous python that was still rolling, and said: "It's just a little effort, I still have some things to do, so let's leave it alone!"
The elderly monk said sternly: "My fellow Taoist, walking alone in this mountain is extremely dangerous. My uncle and nephew have been walking outside this mountain range all year round, and they are very familiar with the terrain and the distribution of monsters outside the mountain range!
"
"That's right! Fellow Taoist, wait for the two of us to finish cleaning up the python corpse, and the three of us will walk in the mountain together! There are many poisonous insects and monsters in this mountain, so it's good to take care of each other!" the young monk said while handling the python corpse.
"Then thank you both very much!" Yannuo clasped his fists and thought to himself: "These two people are only at the sixth level of Qi refining. They can walk together at the seventh level, but they are not afraid of any misdeeds!"
Along the way, the three of them also hunted down a few low-level monsters and poisonous insects to collect some low-level medicinal herbs. With Yannuo's wealth, they didn't care about these herbs, but they cared about the experience of fighting monsters.
From their conversation, I learned that the young and old were uncles and nephews, and they belonged to a small cultivation family near the Wild Mountains. They hunted low-level monsters and collected medicinal herbs in the mountains all year round in exchange for crystal stones to sustain their cultivation.
In the dense forest, Yannuo and the uncle and nephew teamed up and had just eliminated a first-order high-grade monster called "Iron Spiny Lizard" that was guarding the spiritual grass, when they felt a strange aura drifting over from a distance.
The uncle and nephew also sensed this aura, and their faces couldn't help but be stunned: "Friend Yan! Let's go quickly!"
"Jie Jie!" A strange laugh fell from the sky along with a powerful pressure: "Want to leave? It's not that easy!" A black mist wrapped in a figure fell down.
"A demon cultivator in the foundation building stage!" Yannuo couldn't help but exclaimed. Although he often went out to practice, he had never really met a demon cultivator. That's why he was so unfamiliar with the feeling of demonic energy. He sensed the other party.
His cultivation level was actually at the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and Yannuo's face suddenly became solemn.
"Monster Ghost Mist!" The uncle and nephew recognized this person and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"I still lack the souls of some monks in this fierce ghost banner. The three of you will bring your lives!" The magic mist dispersed, and Yannuo finally saw the face of the figure clearly, with red eyes, an eagle nose, and radiating
, with a terrifying face, holding a black flag in his right hand, and he looked to be no more than forty years old.
Yannuo has also seen records of demon cultivators in the ancient books within the sect. It is a technique created by some monks who imitated the ancient demon clan's cultivation methods and found new ways.
Demonic skills are easier to practice than the authentic Taoist skills, the spells are also powerful, and the practice speed is fast. You can improve your cultivation with skills and secret techniques that ordinary people cannot imagine, but it is easy to create inner demons if the foundation is not strong, and make demon practitioners
The heart is twisted, this is what the Ghost Mist Demon Lord is like.
Demon cultivators of the same level have far deeper cultivation and more powerful magic power than the authentic Xuanmen monks of the same level.
Thinking of this, Yannuo couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.
The uncle and nephew glanced at Yannuo, with a somewhat sad expression on their faces: "Fellow Taoist, we are no match for him together. If we separate and escape, we might still be able to escape with our lives!" After that, the three of them looked at each other and nodded.
Escape in three directions.
"Want to escape? Do the little guys in the Qi Refining Stage also want to escape from the hands of this Demon Lord? Even the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage have collected a few of them in the banners of this Demon Lord!" The Ghost Mist Demon Lord laughed,
After saying that, he raised the black flag in his hand, and the black flag flew in the air for a moment. The black light flashed and turned into a size of three feet. The roar of the ghost accompanied by the ghost mist diffused from the black flag, and three two figures appeared from the ghost mist.
The skulls, which were about ten feet in size, were divided into three directions and chased Yannuo and the others.
The uncle and nephew had not run far away when they were overtaken by the two skulls. They screamed twice. The uncle and nephew were swallowed into the mouths by the skulls, and the two souls as light as smoke were sucked into the darkness.
banner.
"Jie Jie! If we can't collect more than a hundred souls of monks, there will be 999 souls in this banner. This devil's ghost banner will soon evolve into the best magic weapon!" The ghost mist
The Demon Lord couldn't help laughing wildly, and then looked at Yannuo, who was being chased by the skull, with a joking look in his eyes.
Feeling that the powerful demonic pressure of the Ghost Mist Demon King was far more powerful than the real person Xuanyi he met in the Southern Wilderness, at this time Yannuo heard the miserable screams of his uncle and nephew, and his heart tightened, thinking about those two
People have already suffered at the hands of this old devil.
Soul Power felt the pursuing Ghost Mist Skeleton behind him, and felt a shiver in his heart. He casually hit it with a mid-level talisman, and the skull immediately disappeared into smoke. The Ghost Mist Demon Lord in the distance couldn't help but be startled.
"Little guy! It's quite interesting. It's a mid-level talisman. It looks like he's quite rich!" With a strange smile, the Ghost Mist Demon Lord escaped from the black mist and chased after him.
He knew that his escape skills were far inferior to that of Demon Lord Guiwu, so he didn't care about that much at this time. Yannuo picked up the spiritual weapon and flew into the sky. Lord Guiwu couldn't help but be startled: "Little guy! It's quite interesting, such a strong soul.
Power! The cultivation level in the Qi refining period can actually use the soul power to fly! This soul power is a great supplement to my demon flag! Jie Jie!" There was another strange laugh.
After saying that, Demon Lord Ghost Mist walked against the wind, following closely behind Yannuo.
"Little guy! This is a mid-grade talisman. I guess which sect you are is the core disciple of! I don't know how many sect disciples I have hunted and killed outside this mountain range..."
Before Demon Lord Guiwu finished speaking, Yannuo took out two thunder and lightning talismans and punched them behind him. Demon Lord Guiwu knew how powerful the mid-level talismans were, so he took the ghost flag out of his arms and sacrificed a demon talisman.
The beast's skull came out, and the demonic beast's skull instantly transformed into a size of about ten feet in the air, protecting him in front of Demon Lord Ghost Mist.
Accompanied by two thunderous sounds, the thunder and lightning formed by the talisman struck the demon beast's skull. The demonic aura of the demon beast's skull dimmed a bit, and the Demon King of Ghost Mist's face became solemn. This thunder and lightning talisman is specially designed to defeat ghost aura, and his expression
Angrily: "Boy! Come and try my Little Ghost Soul Eater!" After saying that, he lightly squeezed a magic formula and a few demonic energies transformed into three ghost heads and flew towards Yannuo.
Yannuo exerted all his strength at this time, and a pair of sun and moon wheels were sacrificed in the air together with the crescent moon blade to slash at the three ghost heads. In an instant, the three ghost heads turned into a wisp of demonic energy and dispersed.
"Boy! You are only at the tenth level of Qi refining stage, but you are so proficient in the art of wielding spiritual weapons."
The three ghost heads he released were shot away by Yan Nuo. The Ghost Mist Demon Lord smiled instead of being angry. The young monk in front of him was really surprising. He took out four spiritual weapons at once in his hand. With such a rich net worth, his eyes couldn't help but
