"This..." The waiter had a hesitant look on his face.
Liu Ming smiled slightly, raised his hand and threw a piece of silver on the table.
The waiter kept looking at Yin Zi, and a trace of greed suddenly appeared on his face.
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Ming walked out of the restaurant door and left the town without lingering.
He found some information from the waiter in the shop. Although what this person knew was only hearsay and the content was limited, Liu Ming was still surprised.
After that, he went to several other places near the small town to explore, then took off again and flew away.
Seven or eight days later, Liu Ming stood on the edge of Qinggang Mountain that the waiter mentioned, looking ahead.
Qinggang Mountain is a mountain with a height of more than 1,000 feet. With the main peak as the center, two mountain ranges cross each other, and the entire mountain is shrouded in thick fog.
However, this fog is not an ordinary white mist, but a light blue mist, like blue smoke, quietly flowing slowly around the mountain.
"As expected!"
Liu Ming looked at the blue mist floating in the mountain peaks, with a solemn look on his face.
A few days ago, he went to the nearest market in the adjacent area to inquire about some information about Qinggang Mountain. Combined with some local legends, he finally got a general understanding of the origin of the place.
It turns out that this place is located in Dongyue County of Qi State, and the Qinggang Mountain in front of us is also a very famous place in the entire Dongyue County.
Dongyue County is located on the border of Qi State, adjacent to another medium-sized country, Yue State. Thousands of years ago, the two countries had a fierce war that lasted for hundreds of years.
As a borderland between the two countries, Qinggang Mountain has witnessed countless major battles.
It was not until more than two thousand years ago that the two countries stopped fighting for unknown reasons.
Therefore, Qinggang Mountain has naturally become a remnant of the ancient battlefield. There are countless mass graves left, and the bones of countless soldiers who died in the two countries are buried in them. The corpses are stacked on top of each other, piled up like a mountain, and it is said that it reaches an inch.
An inch of soil and flesh.
Over the years, these mass graves have become so full of resentment and gloomy air that even in broad daylight on a hot summer day, one can feel a chill to the bones when passing by this place. From then on, no one dared to pass near this place. Things started to get worse.
An unflattering nickname.
As time passed, many ghosts were born in Qinggang Mountain.
At first, they were just some lonely wild ghosts, but the Yin Qi in this place was extremely strong, and the ghosts' cultivation level improved very quickly. They began to appear at night, killing the surrounding creatures, and devouring the souls of living people to strengthen themselves.
Because this place is extremely remote and there are no spiritual veins extending here, no cultivation sect has established a sect here.
There were no monks to curb it. Ordinary mortal officials were no match, so the ghosts in this place naturally became more and more rampant. Families thousands of miles away from Qinggang Mountain had no choice but to gradually move away. At one time, thousands of miles of no-man's land was created.
More than a thousand years ago, a powerful monk who was said to be from a certain ten thousand-year-old sect went out to experience this place. Seeing the devastation of the life here, he took action to kill a large number of ghosts, and laid down a large trapping formation at the expense of blood and blood, severely damaging a person here.
The most powerful ghost.
However, due to the heavy resentment in this place, this ghost used some unknown method when it was about to lose its soul. It summoned thousands of yin energy here to collide with the formation, and this ghost also took advantage of this to escape from the formation with the remaining ghosts.
, fled deep into the mountains.
The powerful monk's vitality was severely injured and he was unable to pursue them anymore. He could only impose several seals in the mountain area to suppress these ghosts within these seals.
In order to fear that the ghost inside would break the seal and come out, the man stayed here and did not leave even a step until he finally passed away.
However, it is precisely because of this that this place has a glimmer of hope, and after hundreds of years of operation, it has become prosperous again.
And this monk also spread his influence here, leaving behind many descendants who suppressed this place for generations.
It is a pity that due to the thin spiritual energy of heaven and earth here, the descendants of this monk have gradually declined. Not only do they not have the vast magical powers of their ancestors, they have gradually become mortals and lost their magic power. Many people have even forgotten their ancestors.
Residual responsibilities.
In addition, since the outer restrictions have not been maintained for a long time, they naturally cannot withstand the collision of so many innocent souls inside, and they can no longer support it.
Nowadays, these descendants are still gathered near the Qinggang Mountains, which is what the waiter in the shop calls Yejia'ao.
The above is all the information that Liu Ming has obtained from many sources. As for how much of it is true, it is not yet clear.
Looking at the ghost mist in front of him, Liu Ming knew that these rumors were most likely true.
Generally, only ghosts who have matured over time and have reached the crystallization stage can form such dense cyan ghost mist, and the area will not be very large.
But the ghost fog here can actually cover the entire mountain.
"Is there a true elixir realm ghost here?" Liu Ming secretly guessed in his heart.
At this moment, black energy flashed from a soul-nurturing bag on his waist, and Fei'er flew out from it:
"Master, I can clearly feel that there is a very powerful guy here!" As soon as Fei'er appeared, his eyes looked into the depths of the ghost mist. There was a solemn look on his young face, but in his eyes
Deep down, there seems to be a hint of longing mixed in.
Liu Ming nodded when he heard this. He could also faintly sense the existence of a sealing formation in the Qinggang Mountains through the spiritual energy fluctuations he felt around him.
The mountains here overlap each other, and most of the evil energy is concentrated at the intersection of the mountains.
The sealing formation that was set up cleverly took advantage of the underground air flow here, and set up a trapping formation, which gathered most of the Yin evil forces here and could not dissipate them.
The benefits of doing this are obvious, as it can prevent the ghosts from stepping out of this place to harm nearby creatures, but one thing they have overlooked is that the gathering yin will not dissipate, which will gradually make this place an excellent place for ghosts to practice.
Once this seal is broken in the future, the consequences will be disastrous.
But even so, Liu Ming still admires this senior monk who set up the restriction on the formation here.
This person is probably a formation master, and his cultivation has at least reached the true elixir realm. Otherwise, after so many years, such a huge formation restriction would have been destroyed long ago.
However, at this time, the seal had reached a critical point. The formation was broken in several places, and a lot of evil energy leaked out, forming a dense ghost mist around it.
Liu Ming just pondered for a moment, then jumped into the air and flew forward with Feitou.
But not long after he rushed into the mist floating in the mountains, a sharp scream came from ahead.
There was a flash of green light, and a green shadow the size of a person jumped out from the ghost mist and grabbed Liu Ming.
"Corrupted Horned Monkey..."
Liu Ming was slightly startled!
The shadow that rushed over was an ape-like ghost with green hair all over its body, a short green horn growing on its head, and its two paws were covered with black bristles.
He was still in the Barbarian Ghost Sect and had seen many of these ghosts in the ghost ghost land of the sect. When he was still a spiritual disciple, he tried to tame them and make them his spiritual pets, but unfortunately he failed.
A hint of recollection appeared on Liu Ming's face, and Feitou standing next to him had already flashed out and spewed out a stream of green flames from his mouth.
The rot-horned monkey seemed to be afraid of the green flames. It flicked its tail suddenly and tried to change its direction in the air.
This horned monkey is full of ghost power and has evolved to the level of a fierce ghost. However, compared with today's Fei'er, the gap is huge.
With a flash of green light, the rotten-horned monkey was wrapped in a large green flame. It screamed in pain. Its body as tall as a person seemed to melt in the green flames, shrinking rapidly. After a moment, it was refined.
It turned into a dark green air ball.
Fei'er opened his small mouth and sprayed out a stream of green glow again. In one roll, a dark green air ball was rolled into his mouth.
Fei'er seemed to have burped, and patted her belly with her white and tender little hands, with a satisfied look on her face.
"Even ghosts like rot-horned monkeys have appeared. It seems that Qinggang Mountain has really become a ghost cave." Liu Ming murmured.
Then, Liu Ming took Feitou to explore the outside of Qinggang Mountain and found that the thick fog covered almost half of the mountain. Standing outside the mountain, it was impossible to see the details of the mountain clearly, and the spiritual consciousness released could not be seen clearly.
You will be hindered by these thick fogs, making it impossible to go deep.
During this period, we were attacked by several rotten-horned monkeys, and naturally they all became the prey of Flying Skull.
Not long after, dusk slowly fell, the ghostly fog gradually rose up in the night, and faint rustling sounds came from it.
"The Yin Qi is strong at night, so it's not suitable to explore this place anymore. That's it for today. Let's go first." Liu Ming made a seal in his hand, and a black Qi enveloped his and Feitou's bodies, and they galloped away into the distance.
.
"Master..." Feitou looked at Liu Ming, opened his small mouth, but stopped talking.
"I know what you are thinking. If there really is a true elixir realm ghost here, its true elixir can just be used to nourish you." Liu Ming smiled slightly and spoke.
Feitou was overjoyed when he heard this.
Its cultivation has now reached the peak of the Crystal Transformation stage. The true elixir of a ghost may be an opportunity for it to advance to the false elixir stage.
Liu Ming did not leave very far, but stepped on a black cloud and headed towards a small peak more than ten miles away in the Qinggang Mountains, preparing to find a cave to rest for the night.
Not long after, he flew to the foot of the mountain.
"Huh!"
His eyes flashed, not far away was a relatively flat small valley, with faint smoke rising from the valley. It was a small village, with only about twenty or thirty households.
There is a wooden fence around the outside of the village, which seems to be used to block the attacks of wild beasts. At the entrance of the village stands a huge black stone, with a smooth surface like a mirror, and a large "leaf" character engraved on it. The writing is vigorous and powerful, penetrating into the stone.
Three points.
"Ye? Could it be that this is Yejia'ao?"
Liu Ming's eyes flashed slightly. According to the information he inquired about, there should be no one else who dares to live so close to Qinggang Mountain except Ye Jia'ao. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and more updated novels. quick!
