The two of them stood on the edge of the Black Pool and sighed for a while, before continuing to rush towards Yu Nie Mountain. The distance from Black Pool to Yu Nie Mountain is not far, and after walking for a while, you can see the outline of Yu Nie Mountain.
As the sun sets in the west, the last trace of color on the horizon gradually sinks, and twilight is quietly shrouding the earth.
Going forward, it is obviously different from the black swamp and desert in front, with more trees and dense forests. There are dense forests on both sides of the road, and you can't see inside.
Although Luo Chen was carrying someone on his back, his speed was no slower than Qing Ji's, and he was still urging Qing Ji to speed up.
"Hey, Qingji, can you hurry up? We need to find the essence stone and leave here as soon as possible." Luo Chen said, Zhulong's life and death were uncertain, and Aoji was unconscious. Now Luo Chen was anxious every minute, and he couldn't wait to get there.
Zifei went up the mountain to find the crystal stone.
Qingji still said coldly: "Huh, don't rush me, we are about to arrive." Although Qingji always spoke coldly to Luo Chen, she never refused to escape alone when something happened, so Luo Chen was very strict with her now.
Trust and treat yourself as one of your own in your heart.
When it got dark, the two of them started heading towards Yu Ni Mountain. The surrounding mountains and forests were silent. Like Blackpool, there were no human habitations for hundreds of miles around, and almost no one could be seen. However, on the way up the mountain, Qing Ji's expression became serious and alert.
Observing the movement around him.
Qing Ji frowned slightly. She was the Demon King. At this time, she instinctively released energy to detect whether there were any monsters around. However, in everyone's impression, there were no rumors of monsters in Yuji Mountain, and there were many people who came to hunt.
Everyone is sure of this.
But this is good news for Luo Chen. Luo Chen doesn't want to be disturbed by others at this time, and is eager to get the essence stone and go back to save Zhulong.
The mountain forest has become dark.
The entire Yu Ni Mountain was shrouded in night. Ai Ji on Luo Chen's back suddenly made a painful sound. Luo Chen quickly stopped and put Ai Ji down. Although Ai Ji was still unconscious, her face turned pale.
Her body became rosy. It was obvious that her body was recovering quickly. She had injected energy into Luo Chen's body before in Kurosawa, but it was like a stone's throw without any response. She didn't know the reason, so she had no choice but to ignore her. At this time, she heard that
Ai Ji shouted, and Luo Chen was naturally happy.
Putting Ai Ji on the ground and listening gently, Luo Chen said lightly: "Well, there seems to be a strange force swimming in her body, but it is very weak. I don't know what is going on?"
"Aiji was shattered by Beishan Shou. Fuhai should not be able to release any power. How could there be strange power wandering around?" Qingji asked in surprise. For cultivators, Fuhai is the source of all power.
, Fuhai was shattered, and he was like half a useless person. It was impossible for him to have the strength to swim around.
So Luo Chen and Qing Ji were puzzled by the power that was faintly roaming inside Ao Ji's body. Luo Chen injected another spiritual power into Ao Ji's body, but there was still no response. However, what made them happy was that Ao Ji
The body is indeed recovering.
"Well. It seems that Ai Ji's body is recovering. Let's rest here tonight and start our journey tomorrow." Luo Chen thought about it and said.
Qing Ji nodded. She knew that if Ai Ji's body was really recovering, then what she needed most at the moment was rest. Only by settling down and calming her body and mind could her body continue to recover.
Luo Chen looked around and said, "Qing Ji, I'm going to pick up some firewood to make a fire to keep out the cold at night. You watch Ai Ji."
After saying that, Luo Chen immediately walked into the nearby forest. To spend the night in the forest, it was necessary to light a fire. Without the fire, the cold air would penetrate into Ren's body, and Ao Ji's body, which was seriously injured and had not recovered, could not withstand it at all.
Seeing Luo Chen disappearing into the forest, Qingji returned to Aoji, took out the water bottle from the bag behind her and gave Aoji a mouthful. Then Qingji used a fire to light up the pine bone lamp she carried with her, and a bunch of
A faint light suddenly sprang up, illuminating the surrounding woods in half-darkness.
At this moment, Qingji suddenly sensed a strong danger, and before she could react, several sharp arrows shot out from outside the forest, hitting Qingji like arrows.
At this time, Qing Ji had noticed that the archers outside the forest were not weak in cultivation. She suddenly grabbed Ai Ji's body on the ground and floated up to the top of the forest. With the faint light from the sky, Yin Yue could clearly see the four people outside the forest.
They looked like five people. The four or five people were all old men, and three of them took bows and arrows and shot into the forest. Then Qing Ji realized that the arrows shot in were filled with fire and saltpeter, and instantly set the forest on fire.
The fire suddenly rushed up, and the forest became bright. When the four or five old men saw that there was no figure of Qing Ji on the ground, they looked up in shock.
At this time, a low and angry voice suddenly sounded from behind those people: "Who are you, and why are you shooting arrows?" It was Luo Chen who spoke. He had just walked half a mile when he suddenly sensed danger, and then
It rushed towards the forest and just blocked the retreat of the four or five old men.
The four or five old men turned around in panic, and their faces all turned pale. With the cultivation of the five of them, they didn't even notice that a person suddenly appeared behind them. The person in front of them was too powerful. I'm afraid he wanted to kill him.
They had already taken action.
An old man with purple hair said in a trembling voice: "Are you also here to seal the monsters?"
Seal monsters? Luo Chen was stunned. He had never heard of it, but Qingji's face turned pale instantly. Qingji is the king of monsters, so of course she knows that humans and monsters coexist in this world, because humans are powerful and monsters
The beast had no choice but to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to avoid friction with humans.
Because humans occupy a dominant position, monsters and beasts consciously hide in their own territory. As long as the monsters do not come out, humans will not take care of them. However, some monsters that have been practicing for a long time will still arouse the suspicion of humans. Many have been practicing for a long time.
The strength of the monsters is very terrifying, and for safety reasons, humans often unite to seal the monsters and prohibit them from leaving that place. However, this is only occasionally done by humans except for monsters with incredible strength.
"Huh huh, where did you come from? What are you trying to seal? Hurry up and get it from the truth, otherwise you will be killed." Luo Chen said coldly. At the same time, the divine emblem flashed between his eyebrows and released a strong pressure.
When the old men saw that this young man turned out to be a master in the divine realm, they were all frightened and trembled. An old man answered cautiously.
"We are disciples of the Qingyun Sect. We were ordered to come to Yu Ni Mountain to seal the monster. That monster is called... the Dragon Bone Lion King."
"Disciple of Qingyun Sect...Dragon Bone Lion King..." Luo Chen had never heard of it and couldn't help but repeat it.
The purple-haired old man saw that there was no murderous look on Luo Chen's face, so he boldly said: "Have you two seniors never heard of the Qingyun Sect and the Dragon Bone Lion King?"
At this time, Qing Ji, who was originally at the top of the forest in the air, jumped down lightly and said lightly: "Oh, you are disciples of Qingyun Sect. Is the Jinhua Patriarch here?"
The expressions of the five old men suddenly changed, and they looked at Qing Ji with suspicion and fear. The five of them were the disciples of the Jinhua Patriarch of the Qingyun Sect. This time they were sent to Yu Ni Mountain to seal the monsters. Just now, the five of them were
They noticed the aura of monster beasts emanating from Aoji from a distance and followed her. As soon as they came, they saw Qingji in the forest. However, these five people did not recognize the demon king Qingji and thought it was an ordinary monster. They were about to subdue them, but were beaten by Luo.
Chen was shocked when he appeared and revealed the divine emblem.
As disciples of the Qingyun Sect, the five of them naturally know the strength of the masters of the God Realm. In the face of such existence, they may not even have the strength to resist.
"Well, what is the name of the monster you want to seal? Dragon Bone Lion King?" Qingji was still eager to know the answer and Bei Luochen asked impatiently. Qing Ji had never heard of the Dragon Bone Lion King's name and couldn't help but ask.
asked curiously. The five disciples of Qingyun Sect's Jinhua Patriarch, Daoyan, Daokong, Daoming, Daoying, and Daoyue, were also shocked when they heard about Demon King Qingji.
For a prestigious sect like the Qingyun Sect, monsters and them are enemies. Naturally, they have heard about the famous Demon King like Qingji. However, the five of them never dreamed that they would meet the Demon King Qingji here.
Qing Ji snorted and said coldly: "Why are there only a few of you? Your master, the old thief Jinhua, is not dead yet?"
Daokong, the eldest disciple of the ancestor of Jinhua, trembled all over and said: "Bold monster, how could it be that you called my master's name?" Although this man was scared, he still had a trace of backbone. Hearing that Qing Ji was disrespectful to his master,
, said immediately.
"Hahahaha, is your Qingyun Sect the emperor? You don't even want people to call you by your name?" Although Luo Chen had no enmity with these people, he was slightly dissatisfied with them for killing Qing Ji with arrows without asking any questions.
.naturally sided with Qing Ji.
Qing Ji snorted and said: "Since you want to seal the Dragon Bone Lion King, why did you come here? Is the Dragon Bone Lion King also here?"
"Our master only asked us to come here, but didn't tell us where the Dragon Bone Lion King is, so we were looking everywhere, but unexpectedly we bumped into two people, Haihan Haihan." Daokong saw the murderous look in Qingji's eyes and was shocked.
Dare to hide it. Tell it honestly.
At this moment, a sigh suddenly came from the distance. The sound was extremely distant. Although it was weak, it still clearly reached the ears of everyone in the forest. Everyone felt as if someone was sighing in their ears.
The expressions of Daokong and others changed instantly, and then they lowered their heads, extremely frightened.
Luo Chen and Qing Ji were both shocked. Based on their cultivation levels, they could tell that the sighing voice was extremely high, and their strength seemed not to be inferior to Luo Chen's. There was such a master in this barren mountain and old forest. And then immediately
, Judging from the shameful looks on Daokong and others' faces, Luo Chen immediately realized that the ancestor of Jinhua was here.
Someone outside the forest said calmly: "Daokong, the five of you usually don't listen to your teacher's teachings and waste your skills, leading to today's humiliation. Do you know that you are wrong?"
Daokong and others all lowered their heads and said in fear, "I know I was wrong."
Luo Chen was shocked. The sigh just disappeared. He clearly felt that the speaker was hundreds of miles away, but how could he be outside the forest in an instant? His heart suddenly froze, and he was secretly on guard. He said loudly: "Ancestor Jinhua, please come out and talk."
