About five or six minutes later, the middle-aged man's bloodless face gradually became more rosy, and his original weak breath gradually recovered.
After a while, the middle-aged man opened his eyes and took a breath.
His body was still quite weak, but his life was saved.
"Husband, how are you?" The female cultivator's pretty face showed a hint of joy, and she hurriedly helped the middle-aged man up.
"Don't worry madam, I'm fine.
Could it be that this senior saved me?" the middle-aged man said breathlessly.
He could feel that there was a pill in his body that was working just now. It could only be the medicine given by Shen Lang.
"Yes, it was this senior who saved you!" The female cultivator lowered her eyebrows at Shen Lang, full of gratitude.
"There is no way I can repay you for saving my life. I would like to express my gratitude to you.
"The middle-aged man struggled and kowtowed to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang didn't like nonsense, so he waved his hand directly and said: "No need to worship me, I just happened to pass by here and rescued you.
I have a few questions that I want you to answer truthfully.
The middle-aged man immediately clasped his fists and said, "Senior, please tell me. I will definitely tell you everything I know!" The female cultivator waited obediently beside the middle-aged man, looking gentle and virtuous, like a little bird.
"What continent is this and where is this canyon?" Shen Lang asked.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, a little surprised as to why Shen Lang asked such an idiotic question.
"Back to our ancestors, this is the Beiliang land in Yunjian continent, and this valley is the Huanyin Valley at the end of the Beiliang land.
"The middle-aged man explained.
"Yunjian Continent?" Shen Lang raised his eyebrows. It seemed that he had really teleported to a new continent.
Shen Lang has also heard of the name of this continent. In the early years, he obtained the Withered Bone Demon Puppet in Linhai Tianshan. The master who refined the puppet came from Yunjian Continent.
Shen Lang then asked a lot of questions, and the middle-aged man answered them respectfully.
The land of Beiliang is on the northern edge of Yunjian Continent, close to the sea.
Further north is the boundless sky and sea.
This place is located in a desolate place, with few cultivation sects and many small and medium-sized cultivation families.
It is said that there is only one Nascent Soul Stage monk in the entire Beiliang land.
There is an island in the north, and a demon cultivator occupies the island as its king.
Apart from this, there are no other powerful people in the land of Beiliang.
The Huanyin Valley where Shen Lang is located is a dangerous place in the land of Beiliang. It is full of monsters and beasts, but it also grows a large number of natural materials, earthly treasures, spiritual herbs and elixirs.
Generally, monks above the Foundation Establishment stage would not dare to enter the Phantom Valley alone. At least seven or eight people must form a team of Foundation Establishment stage monks to be able to protect themselves.
"Since there are so many dangers here, why did you two step into this phantom valley?" Shen Lang asked with a frown.
"My husband and I are casual cultivators, and we want to come to Huanyin Valley to try our luck and find some heavenly and earthly treasures.
"The middle-aged man said with his head lowered, not daring to look into Shen Lang's eyes.
Shen Lang's face turned cold, and he felt that this man was lying, and said coldly: "I have good intentions to save you, but you dare to lie to me? The secret technique you just used must be a magic technique, right? It can kill you in a short time.
How can a casual cultivator of your level possess such a powerful technique that can improve your realm so much?" The middle-aged man was startled, and immediately fell to his knees and said, "Junior, tell the truth, what I just performed was
The secret technique was also acquired by chance. If you don’t believe it, just look at it!” After saying that, the middle-aged man took out a black jade slip from the storage ring and handed it to Shen Lang.
This jade slip has a simple shape, a bit like something from ancient monks.
Shen Lang took the jade slip and examined it. It described a technique called "Blood Demon Technique", which refers to a technique that uses one's own essence and blood to greatly improve one's cultivation level in a short period of time.
This technique has extremely side effects, and will cause the user to fall directly into a realm after using it.
Although Shen Lang still had doubts, he couldn't say much, so he returned the black jade slip and said, "I misunderstood, don't mind.
"Where is it? The junior didn't explain it clearly."
"The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. This man is very good at talking.
Shen Lang finally asked: "I have one more thing to ask, how to get out of the Phantom Valley?" "Senior, you can go southwest from here. There is a wasteland there, and through the wasteland is a swamp...
"The middle-aged man said unhurriedly, with a hint of treachery hidden in his eyes.
"Ah!" As soon as he finished speaking, the pretty face of the female cultivator beside her turned slightly pale, and she exclaimed unconsciously.
The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly, and he immediately turned around and asked, "Madam, what's wrong with you?" "No... nothing, there was a centipede in the grass just now.
"The female cultivator held her hands in black hair to hide the panic on her face.
"Haha, I made the seniors laugh. I, a Taoist monk, was bitten by a poisonous centipede a few years ago and almost lost his life. Therefore, seeing some highly poisonous long insects will have some psychological shadow.
"The middle-aged man hurriedly explained to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang's eyes narrowed slightly, he already had doubts in his heart, but he still said: "How to go through the wasteland and swamp.
"That swamp is about a thousand miles to the southwest and is densely filled with poisonous gas, but for a strong person like Senior, there is no problem."
After passing through the swamp, there is the exit of Phantom Valley," the middle-aged man said immediately.
Worried that Shen Lang would be suspicious, the middle-aged man even took out a map and pointed it at Shen Lang.
It is true that the swamp is not the only exit, but it is indeed the fastest road on the map.
"All right.
"After Shen Lang asked for the specific location, he turned around and left, heading towards the wasteland and swamp described by the middle-aged man at high speed.
Watching Shen Lang's figure gradually disappearing in the woods, a hint of guilt flashed across the middle-aged man's face, but it soon turned into resentment and sullenness.
"Sir, don't you think there was something wrong with those two people just now?" Xiaorou in the spirit beast bag couldn't help but say.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Shen Lang's lips, and he said: "Actually, I have already noticed that there is something wrong with the jade slip that the person gave me just now. It has a faint trace of evil energy on it, and it is obviously not theirs.
"Sir, those men and women are really not good people. You saved them, but they actually want to harm you."
That swamp is probably dangerous.
"Xiaorou frowned.
"Don't worry about this.
What the man said was not entirely false.
At least walking through that swamp should be the fastest way out of Phantom Valley.
Shen Lang said lightly. He was too lazy to take a detour and decided to try this route.
Even if there are any evil spirits, they can definitely be easily dealt with based on their own strength.
...The middle-aged man was sitting under the tree, with the female cultivator accompanying him.
After a while, the man let out a breath of turbid air. Thanks to Shen Lang's elixir, the injuries in his body were basically stabilized.
However, his cultivation at this time has dropped to the early stage of foundation building, and the middle-aged man's mood has also dropped to rock bottom.
"Husband, how are you?" The female cultivator immediately helped the middle-aged man and asked softly.
