Finally, the fifth person also spoke. This person was wearing a gray robe. He had a serious face and a very cautious tone of voice: "Even ordinary beasts, we monks in the Qi Refining Stage are not that easy to deal with, not to mention that we are still casual cultivators.
, it is not as good as those monks who come from the authentic Xuanmen and have a solid foundation, so it is better to be careful."
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou, who looks like a farmer, agreed: "What Taoist Songfeng said is true. We took a detour from the Tianjue Mountains to the Rifting Cloud Valley to avoid some powerful beasts. I have taken this route with several other people.
A few casual cultivators walked by and basically didn’t encounter any wild beasts that we can’t deal with during the Qi Refining Period, so don’t worry, everyone.”
Hearing what the middle-aged man surnamed Zou said, the man with the sword, the timid young man, the tall and strong man and the gray-robed monk felt relieved.
Just as the five people approached the forest, the middle-aged man surnamed Zou suddenly waved his hand.
The timid young man named Zhang was startled: "Brother Zou Dao, what's wrong?"
"Everyone, be careful. There is a red and green one-eyed bird that was shot down by someone. It may have been caused by some powerful beast."
As soon as the middle-aged man named Zou said this, the other four people were all on guard.
Suddenly, a stone as big as a fist was fired at the young man named Zhang.
"careful!"
The man carrying the sword raised his sword to help the young man named Zhang block it. The sword was immediately knocked off by the stone, and the tiger's mouth was cracked by the powerful force. The young man carrying the sword screamed in pain.
"There!"
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou finally discovered where the beast was. He immediately took out a yellow talisman and recited the magic formula. A green light shot out of the talisman and shot towards the snow where the stones were coming from.
A tall and majestic white shadow jumped up from the snow. After the five people saw clearly what was attacking them, they couldn't help but gasp.
The tall, muscular man blurted out in shock and anger: "It's a snow ape! No wonder it can knock down a red and blue one-eyed bird!"
"Don't let this snow ape continue to throw stones, let's besiege it together!"
The middle-aged man named Wrinkle gave orders while activating the power of the talisman, shooting out streaks of green light.
The other four people also took out their talismans and cast spells to attack the snow ape.
"roar!"
Snow Monkey roared angrily, dodged spells one after another, and threw more than a dozen stones with both hands, breaking all the talismans of the five monks.
Fortunately, the five people escaped in time and were not hit by the rocks. Otherwise, they would have been seriously injured even if they were not dead.
These five casual cultivators were obviously not wealthy people. The talismans in their hands were smashed, and they all showed signs of physical pain.
But before they had time to think about it, the Snow Ape had already attacked, scaring them all away. Among them, a middle-aged man surnamed Zou escaped from the Snow Ape's attack, took out a talisman, and inserted a spell into the talisman.
, a small gleaming white sword appeared from the talisman and stabbed the snow monkey in the head.
Snow Monkey turned its head to avoid, and the small sword swiped across its shoulder, leaving a deep wound.
"roar!"
The injured snow monkey went crazy and was so frightened that the young man surnamed Zhang who just rolled to the ground couldn't stand up.
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou was calm. He drove the small sword and continued to attack the snow ape, but the snow ape did not dodge. He grabbed the small sword with his broad palm with thick webbed flesh and squeezed the small sword until it shone white.
And Snow Monkey's palms also oozed bright red blood.
"It is said that the Snow Ape in the Tianjue Mountains is extremely powerful and is the descendant of the Ice Ape in the Snowy Land. This ape has not yet developed demonic power, but it can control my sword talisman with its bare hands. This is terrible!"
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou's heart sank, and he was thinking about whether to take out the magic weapon at the bottom of the box.
But he only hesitated for a moment, and Xue Yuan had already pinched the small sword until the white light dimmed and the sword body was broken. The next moment, Xue Yuan's huge palm came towards the head of the middle-aged man named Zou. If he was hit by this blow, his brain would definitely burst.
At the critical moment, an invisible force of energy came across the sky and pierced the snow monkey's palm. The pain made the snow monkey roar and fly back a few steps.
The five people and one ape all looked in the direction where Qi Jin came from, and saw a young man in white slowly standing up from the snow. It was Chen Xuan who had rescued the middle-aged man named Zou.
The reason why Chen Xuan didn't take action at first was because he didn't know how powerful the snow ape was.
If Snow Monkey was much stronger than he is now, then he would have harmed himself by helping the five casual cultivators.
Chen Xuan has never been a good person. When he should help others and when he should not help, it depends on the situation.
After confirming that he could deal with the snow ape, Chen Xuan took action immediately. He ran over and shouted to the five monks: "Fellow Taoists, I can't deal with him alone, let's all come together!"
"good!"
The young man surnamed Zou agreed, and together with four other casual cultivators, Chen Xuan set out to besiege Snow Monkey.
Snow Monkey, who had been injured continuously, was no longer a match for the six of them, and soon fell into a pool of blood.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist. Do you know your surname?
Could it be that fellow Taoist is a martial artist?"
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou said gratefully to Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan thought that as long as he did not reveal that he was the descendant of an evil doctor, it would have no impact to say his name: "My surname is Chen, and my given name is Xuan. I have never heard of the martial arts this fellow Taoist is talking about.
In fact, I am a casual cultivator just like you, and I just practice some ordinary martial arts."
Without knowing who the other party was, Chen Xuan chose to deliberately hide his humility.
"oh?"
The middle-aged man surnamed Zou was surprised at first when he heard Chen Xuan call himself a casual cultivator, but then he felt relieved and smiled more naturally, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Chen. You are a casual cultivator like us. It's normal for you to have never heard of martial arts cultivators.
Our knowledge of cultivation is not comparable to that of monks from famous families. Zou also heard some legends from elsewhere. The origin of this martial arts
It’s a long story, and it has something to do with the glorious Great Xia Dynasty. Unfortunately, Fuxi, one of the three founders of martial arts, has long since fallen, and martial arts has declined as a result. It’s okay not to mention it. Fellow Daoist Chen, thank you for your generous help today. If it weren’t for you
, we were beaten so embarrassingly by a beast that has not yet developed the power of spiritual demons, but it is very embarrassing."
"Haha, it's just a matter of effort. I wonder what these fellow Taoists are called and where they are going?"
Chen Xuan asked with a faint smile.
When the middle-aged man surnamed Zou saw that Chen Xuan did not ask for anything in return, his favorable impression of Chen Xuan increased, so he introduced several casual cultivators to Chen Xuan.
After being introduced by the middle-aged man surnamed Zou, Chen Xuan finally knew the names of these five casual cultivators. The full name of the middle-aged man surnamed Zou was Zou Ran, the name of the timid young man was Zhang Qing, and the tall and strong man's name matched his appearance quite well.
Called Yan Meng.
The other two people, the man with the sword on his back was named Feng Shi, and the unsmiling gray-robed Taoist priest named Songfeng.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, we took a detour from the foot of the Tianjue Mountains to the Split Cloud Valley to collect herbs. Are you going to the Split Cloud Valley like us?"
When Zou Ran spoke, a trace of expectation flashed in his eyes.
