The journey to the Poison Fog Valley in southern Xinjiang is a long one, and at the speed of Zhou Cheng and his men, it will take at least seven or eight days.
However, by arriving at the Poison Mist Valley, Zhou Cheng could almost break through to the fourth level of innateness.
Once he breaks through the fourth innate level, his strength will double again.
On the third day after leaving Wanxing Gate, Zhou Cheng arrived at the border of Southern Xinjiang.
What appeared in front of Zhou Cheng was a majestic city.
This is the border city of Southern Xinjiang.
There are heavy troops stationed in the city.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Zhou Cheng and others crossed the border of Southern Xinjiang and rushed to Poison Mist Valley without stopping.
On the fourth day, Zhou Cheng's Yuanshi Infinite Sutra finally broke through again and reached the third level of expulsion.
With the breakthrough, Zhou Cheng's soul became more solid.
Because he practiced the Yuanshi Infinite Sutra, he visualized Yuanshi Tianzun, the highest god in Taoism, so the power of his soul was much stronger than those in the same realm.
His soul power is comparable to a master of the sixth level of exorcism.
The journey was uneventful.
On the eighth day after leaving the Ten Thousand Star Gate, the Poison Mist Valley was finally in sight.
Night falls.
"Master, according to the map, if you pass through the village in front, you will reach the Poison Mist Valley." Qin Meng said.
Zhou Cheng nodded.
"Let's go to the village in front of us and rest for one night, and we'll continue our journey tomorrow." Zhou Cheng and Qin Meng headed to the village in front of them.
The poisonous fog in the Poisonous Fog Valley is the thickest at night, and poisonous people in the valley generally travel at night, so Zhou Cheng decided to enter the Poisonous Fog Valley again tomorrow.
Since the village is located near Poisonous Fog Valley, and is far away from surrounding towns, it is in a remote location, so there are not many people there, only dozens of households.
After accepting Zhou Cheng's one and ten taels of silver, an old man in his sixties in the village warmly received Zhou Cheng and others.
The old man is single and one-eyed, but he is quite simple.
Zhou Cheng and the others sat beside the bonfire in the yard with the old man, drinking and chatting.
During the chat, Zhou Cheng learned that the old man's eyes were blinded by poison from Poison Mist Valley.
Mentioning the poisoned eyes, the old man couldn't help but sigh.
However, when he learned that Zhou Cheng and others were going to Poison Fog Valley to look for nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers tomorrow, the old man was surprised: "Young Master, are you looking for nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers?"
Seeing the old man's expression, Zhou Cheng couldn't help but ask: "Does the old man know about nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers?"
The old man nodded and said: "My father is a pharmacologist, and I know a little about the properties of medicine." Then he said: "Moreover, I once followed my father into the Poisonous Fog Valley and saw nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers."
Zhou Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "I wonder where in Poisonous Fog Valley the old man saw nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers?"
The Poison Mist Valley is very deep and large, and poisonous is rampant. If you don't know where the nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers are, it will be difficult to find them.
If you know the specific locations of nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers, you don't need to spend so much effort.
The old man hesitated and said: "I know, I know, but both places are too dangerous, and they are guarded by giant pythons and monsters, so it is impossible to get there."
Zhou Cheng took out a banknote.
The old man took it and looked at it, shaking his hands: "Ten thousand taels."
Zhou Cheng said, "If you take us in, these ten thousand taels will be yours." He added, "As long as we find nightshades and five-color spiritual flowers, I will give you another ten thousand taels after the matter is completed."
The old man swallowed.
Ten thousand taels!
Done, there are still ten thousand taels left!
Twenty thousand taels was definitely a huge amount of money in the Dafeng Dynasty.
The old man's face was gloomy, and he nodded and said: "Okay, I will take the young masters in, but it will take a few days."
"How many days will it take?" Zhou Cheng wondered.
The old man explained: "Young master, I don't know. Just yesterday, some masters from the Demon Cult entered the Poison Mist Valley. People from the Demon Cult are murderous. If we enter the valley at this time, we are afraid that we will encounter the Demon Cult's masters."
people."
"Oh, people from the Demon Cult." Zhou Cheng was surprised.
Last time, the Demon Sect was chased by them all the way, and they fled to southern Xinjiang and hid in the mountains. Unexpectedly, this time they came to Poison Mist Valley and met people from the Demon Sect.
Immediately, Zhou Cheng asked with a smile: "How many masters have come from the Demon Sect?"
The old man thought for a moment and said: "There are about twenty people. The leader is a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old. The people of the Demon Sect are very respectful to him."
A boy of sixteen or seventeen?
Zhou Cheng's heart moved.
Could it be Nan Qinghe, the young leader of the Demon Cult?
They came to Poison Mist Valley to find elixir?
Zhou Cheng said to the old man: "Don't worry, my subordinates are all innate masters. Even if we encounter people from the Demon Sect, we don't have to worry."
Qin Meng punched out.
Suddenly, a fist beam passed by, and the dense grass in front was plowed out into an open space of tens of meters.
The old man was stunned.
Finally, the old man agreed to take Zhou Cheng and others into Poison Mist Valley tomorrow.
late at night.
Zhou Cheng came outside the courtyard and looked at the stars in the night sky.
It has been more than seventy days since I came to this world, it seems like yesterday.
These past two months have been like a dream.
At this time, it was already mid-September, the weather was no longer so hot, and the night breeze was blowing.
These days, his Taixuan Sword Technique has been constantly challenging Ximen Sword Technique, and he has been defeated every time. However, he has become more and more courageous as he fights, and has reached the level of proficiency in his practice.
As his Ximen Sword Technique continued to defeat Tai Xuan Sword Technique, his progress became more rapid, and he was already close to the state of perfection.
His soul-stealing knife, twenty-eight star fists, and phoenix dance spear skills have also entered the realm of proficiency.
Zhou Cheng learned that in the world of immortal martial arts, there are five true meanings of martial arts, namely sword intention, knife intention, spear intention, fist intention, and palm intention.
Since it is easier to practice acquired martial arts to reach the peak of perfection, Zhou Cheng specially trained acquired martial arts, spear and palm skills.
Just yesterday, he practiced the acquired martial arts skills of spear and palm to the pinnacle, and developed the spear intention and palm intention.
So now, he has the true meaning of the five great martial arts.
Zhou Cheng returned to his room without resting. He sat cross-legged and meditated, visualizing Yuanshi Tianzun and Wufu Taiyi Zhenjun to exercise his soul.
The sky gradually gets brighter.
The old man got up early and wore a pair of underwear, looking very energetic.
"Young Master," the old man called Zhou Cheng when he saw him. Ever since he saw Qin Meng's strength last night, he seemed a little reserved in front of Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng smiled and said: "Old man Lin, shall we set off?"
"Okay, let's go now." Old man Lin Chen said quickly.
Since it was inconvenient to ride a war horse into the Poisonous Fog Valley, Zhou Cheng and others entered the Poisonous Fog Valley on foot.
After a while, several people arrived at Poison Mist Valley.
The mouth of the Poisonous Fog Valley is not big, only a few meters wide. Although it is already bright, the poisonous fog is still very thick.
Zhou Cheng and others swallowed an antidote pill and walked in.
Soon, Zhou Cheng and the others disappeared into the poisonous fog in the Poisonous Fog Valley.
Compared with Zhou Cheng and others, the old man Lin Chen seemed to be very cautious, almost stopping every step, and his footsteps were very light, for fear of stepping on something and making a sound.
Many of the poisons in the Poison Mist Valley live in groups. If the attention of these gregarious poisons is attracted, they will swarm in and it will be difficult to escape.
