Feng Baichuan's eyes turned to Lan Xueruo's back and said: "Little brother, you look very bad, and you are being carried by this girl. You must have been seriously injured, right? I have some medical skills,
Maybe I can be of some help."
"My name is Yun Che. Thank you Clan Chief Feng for your kindness." Yun Che, who was sitting on Lan Xueruo's back, replied politely. His voice made Lan Xueruo's beautiful eyes widen: "You...are you awake?"
"Well, I woke up when senior sister carried me on her back." Yun Che said with a smile. Although his face was ugly, his voice was finally no longer so hollow. When he fell into the sky, he quickly fused Tianfu with the Sky Poison Pearl.
More than 30 kinds of medicinal materials such as grass, nectar flowers, and mountain river indigo were melted into a Huitian Pill quickly, and then swallowed in the mouth. The medicinal materials required to refine the Huitian Pill are extremely demanding in terms of quantity and quality, but the refining environment
, the cauldron furnace, the refining method is extremely strict, even a high-level alchemist, the refining efficiency is not more than 30%, but with the Xiao Sect's huge treasure house and the Sky Poison Pearl, these are not a problem
.
"Then you...then you still don't say anything and let me carry you this far." Lan Xueruo's face turned pink and she felt angry for a moment.
"Because it's the first time in my life that I'm being carried on a girl's back. It's very comfortable. And... senior sister's body smells so good." When he said this, he originally wanted to take a gentle sniff of Lan Xueruo's body, but suddenly
His expression froze, and he was stunned...
Is this really... the first time a girl carries you?
In this life, it is indeed true...
But, in that life in Cangyun Continent...that girl...every time she came back to her place, she used her last bit of strength to slam the bamboo door before she passed out, and when she woke up, she was still lying there.
That soft and warm bed... Although he was in a coma, he seemed to be able to clearly feel every step she took with her frail body carrying him covered in blood, and the pain that accompanied each step.
A little teardrop...
Again and again, maybe dozens of times, maybe hundreds of times, there were so many times that he couldn't even count them, and he didn't try to count them... The only thing he could remember clearly was that even if he could live two lives, he wouldn't be able to count them.
He couldn't make up for his debt to her anymore. Because God no longer gave him a chance.
Suddenly, Lan Xueruo, who was leaning against him, slowly turned into a figure that only appeared in dreams...
"You! If it weren't for your injury, I would have thrown you down!" Lan Xueruo snorted a little angrily. Before, she was carrying Yun Che on her back, and she felt calm inside because she thought Yun Che was unconscious. Now he wakes up
When she came over, the close touch of her body and the vague masculine aura made her blush and her heartbeat became a little disordered.
"Clan Chief Feng, can you help us find a place to settle my friend?" Lan Xueruo asked Feng Baichuan.
"Of course, please come with me."
This small village is indeed a small village, with only dozens of simple houses in total. From Feng Baichuan's mouth, I learned that the entire family only has a population of about two hundred people. Regarding the arrival of two outsiders, Lan Xueruo and Yun Che,
The people here were wary at first, and then showed kindness one after another. Soon, Lan Xueruo and Yun Che discovered a strange thing at the same time. The people they met were all at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm, except for
Those children who have not yet cultivated mystical power are all like this, without exception. It seems that the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm is the limit they can reach. However, after entering the Xuan Xuan Realm, every time they cross between major realms, they are accompanied by
There is a bottleneck that is becoming more and more difficult to break through. But from the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm to the Nascent Xuan Realm, there is no bottleneck at all. As long as you accumulate enough profound power, you will naturally enter the Nascent Xuan Realm.
But the people here have all stopped at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm, which really puzzles Yun Che and Lan Xueruo.
"Why is there the aura of the phoenix here?"
Jasmine's sudden voice surprised Yun Che: "Phoenix? The legendary ancient beast Phoenix?"
"That's right!" There was a hint of fatigue in Jasmine's voice. She had previously transferred part of her profound energy to Yun Che. Although it was only for a few seconds, it caused some damage to her soul and Yun Che's body: "
Although it is very weak, there is no doubt that it is the aura of the phoenix. It is really strange...could it be that the phoenix actually descended to this lower plane in the first place?"
Inferior plane... These words made Yun Che's heart stir, and he suddenly had a terrible guess about Jasmine's identity.
"And the flame mark on their foreheads is the symbol of the Phoenix bloodline! However, the color of this mark is completely different from what this princess knows. In addition, the Phoenix bloodline mark can usually be hidden. When using Phoenix flames
They are forced to appear when they are strong, but the people here all bear the mark of the phoenix, as if they cannot hide at all. In short, it is very strange!"
Feng Baichuan brought Lan Xueruo and Yun Che to a clean hut: "You two, please have a good rest here. We are just a small secluded tribe. Nothing can be compared with the outside world. We can only neglect the two of them."
It’s in place.”
Lan Xueruo carefully put Yun Che on the bed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She turned around and said, "Chief Feng, you are so polite. We are already very grateful to have such a place."
"Are you the guardian family of Phoenix Heritage?"
At this moment, Yun Che suddenly asked coldly.
Feng Baichuan's always calm and elegant face suddenly froze, and his pupils shrank significantly. His eyes changed rapidly, thinking about how to deny and avoid, but after a few breaths, his eyes calmed down, but he was laughing at himself.
He laughed: "Guardian Family? We don't deserve such a title. We are just a humble family that carries sins and curses, stays away from the world, and atones for our sins from generation to generation. Although I don't know where you know that we are related to the Phoenix, but
It seems...that you came to this place really want to get the so-called 'treasure' we are guarding?"
"Phoenix? The sacred beast of faith in the Divine Phoenix Empire?" Lan Xueruo looked at Yun Che and Feng Baichuan with a face full of surprise, and her brain was a little confused for a moment.
"No, you misunderstood." Yun Che took a breath and tried to sit up, but his whole body was weak and the wound hurt sharply at the slightest movement. He had to give up and lay there and said: "I would have thought that you might be from the Phoenix Relics.
You protect the family because of the mark on your forehead. I have come across many rumors about the Phoenix bloodline. The shape of the mark on your forehead is exactly the same as the Phoenix bloodline mark I know, but the color is a little different. My senior sister and I came here
Here, I just accidentally fell here from a high altitude and was seriously injured. There is absolutely no other meaning."
Yun Che's injuries made Feng Baichuan completely believe his words. After all, no one would be stupid enough to covet their "treasure" with serious injuries. Yun Che's words made him stunned for a while, and then he laughed at himself again: "
Phoenix mark...the colors are different...yes, the colors are different. The noble mark that was originally a symbol of strength and blood has now become a sad curse mark. Our ancestors made a big mistake, how can we, the descendants, deserve it!?"
There was a deep sadness in Feng Baichuan's words, as if Yun Che's words had completely touched the pain in his heart.
A cursed seal? Yun Che's heart palpitated. How could a bloodline seal become a cursed seal? Wait, could it be that their profound strength could only stop at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm because of what Feng Baichuan said?
"The Seal of the Curse"?
"I believe you are not evil people, because I can't find any feeling of being evil people from you. You also saved my two children. I should repay you in any way. But..." Feng Baichuan let out a long sigh.
: "Our family is currently suffering from a disaster. If you continue to stay here, the disaster may also affect you. So, take good care of your injuries here. It is best to heal your injuries before those evil people come here again, and then leave.
Here. Because the next time those evil people come again, maybe... it will be a disaster."
On the way here, he learned what had happened before from the conversation between Lan Xueruo and the two children. He said in confusion: "Clan Chief Feng, there is one thing I don't understand. Your clan should have already been here.
It has existed for many years, right? It has been safe and sound for so many years, why is it being targeted by a mercenary group this time?"
Feng Baichuan glanced out the window and said calmly: "You are right, our clan has existed for many, many years, and was once prosperous. However, due to a sin of divine punishment, it declined rapidly, and we had to choose to hide from the world and survive.
Today, it looks like this humble place, not even as good as a small human dilapidated village. But no one has bothered us in these years. Because this place is called the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts, and all kinds of mysterious beasts are rampant, ranging from violent to violent.
From the sub-mysterious beasts to the terrifying earth-mysterious beasts, it is even said that there are three terrifying celestial-mysterious beasts living in the mountains. This is the paradise of the mysterious beasts. They exclude humans from entering here, so once humans enter,
You will be attacked by them in groups. At the same time, the deeper you go, the higher the level of the mysterious beasts will be."
"And here is the center of the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. In order to obtain the mysterious beast's mysterious elixir, some humans may operate on the edge of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, but except for those peerless experts, no one has the courage and ability to reach this place.
area, and those extremely powerful people with this ability would not bother to come to such a place."
"But, it seems that there are no mysterious beasts nearby?" Yun Che said with a frown. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "Is it because of... the aura of the phoenix?"
"That's right." Feng Baichuan nodded: "To tell you the truth, behind this place is a phoenix legacy that we have guarded for generations, and the aura left by the phoenix remains. Although the aura is weak, it persists all year round.
Who among the mysterious beasts in this world can bear the pressure of the ancient beasts? Who dares to get close?"
"I see."
Yun Che nodded slowly, with a slightly moved expression on his face. There is actually a Phoenix legacy here. Moreover, the breath of the Phoenix persists all year round. The best explanation is that this is the legacy of the Phoenix that remains in this Phoenix legacy.
Something left behind by the Phoenix!
What are the things left by the ancient mythical beasts!
Just thinking about this, the blood in Yun Che's whole body began to boil... One can imagine what a huge sensation it would cause if the news that there was a Phoenix ruins here spread.
"In that case, how did those evil people who wanted to seize the things you protect come in?" Yun Che asked. An ordinary mercenary group would never be able to fight against the spirit beast, let alone the earth mystery beast.
Beasts, let alone a hundred or so people, even if the scale is expanded ten times, if they encounter a mysterious earth beast, the entire army will definitely be wiped out.
If we go all the way deep without encountering a spiritual beast or an earth beast, it would be even more impossible given the density of mysterious beasts in this Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
"I don't know." Feng Baichuan shook his head: "I want to know how they got here more than anyone else. Maybe this is the fate we deserve."
Could it be that they also relied on flying mysterious beasts that can fly to distant high altitudes? Yun Che pondered, but immediately rejected this conjecture. There are many mysterious beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, and they must include a large number of flying mysterious beasts. Even if you control ordinary
It is impossible for flying mysterious beasts to enter. However, mysterious beasts such as the Storm Eagle and the Giant Snow Eagle, which can reach an altitude of several thousand or even ten thousand meters, can do it, but because of their terrifying ability to control the air, they can do it for humans.
The number they control is too small. Even the branch of the Xiao Sect, the strongest sect in Crescent City, only has one. How can it be possessed by such an ordinary mercenary group?
