(Thanks to ‘Zhuojiuhun’ and ‘Brother Siwuxie’ for the reward)
The heavy rain continued for a day and finally stopped.
Chen Zong was not in a hurry to leave the cave, because at night, monsters dominated the world. He moved large rocks around and piled them at the entrance of the cave to prevent monsters from breaking in at night.
I spent the night half asleep and half awake, peacefully.
Pushing away the stones and walking out of the cave, everything is humid. The morning sun rises and the golden light shines. There are countless water droplets on every leaf on every tree and every grass. They refract the morning sun and shine out in a variety of colors, which is extremely magnificent.
The air is moist and fresh. Take a deep breath and feel energetic.
Chen Zong chose yesterday's direction, carried his baggage and moved on.
Finally, I was helplessly convinced that I was lost.
At a glance, everything is covered with lush vegetation, making it difficult to tell where is which.
"We can only try our luck." Chen Zong secretly thought that he had to be careful. There are many monsters in Fulong Mountain here.
As soon as the thought came up, a figure immediately came from the side and attacked him quickly, drawing his sword and slashing past.
The sword was extremely accurate and killed him directly.
It is a half-meter-long lynx monster, a first-class low-grade beast.
Chen Zong ignored the body of the lynx monster and left quickly, otherwise the smell of the monster's blood might attract other monsters.
Time flies, and the morning sun turns into a scorching sun again.
When he feels hungry and cannot find suitable food, Chen Zong will take an energy pill.
Energy pills are now completely reduced to a hunger-satisfying thing.
During this period, Chen Zong encountered three monsters. Fortunately, the most powerful one was only a first-level mid-level monster, which could not withstand his own sword and was killed directly.
While walking, the sun set in the west. During this period, Chen Zong saw a small fiery red tree from a distance. There were three fruits on the small tree, two green and one red. The fruits seemed to have scales. He recognized them.
They are the seventh-grade herbal medicine Fire Scale Fruit. One is about to mature, and the other two are still early.
The seventh-grade herbal medicine was of high value. Chen Zong was very excited, but he did not dare to pick it because next to the fire scale fruit tree, there was a fiery red monster crawling. It looked like a jackal and was very ferocious and violent.
It permeates the whole body and is extremely terrifying.
Evil fire jackal!
A second-grade top-grade monster.
When encountering such a monster, Chen Zong should hide as far as possible without taking any chances, even though he really wanted to get the ripe Fire Scale Fruit.
After carefully escaping, I breathed a sigh of relief.
As the sun set and the sky became dark, Chen Zong had to find a place with a relatively wide view and a safer place to spend the night.
The night was not peaceful, and the roars of various monsters came one after another.
Chen Zong didn't dare to really fall asleep, so he just leaned on the stone and tried to rest as much as possible.
The mountain wind at night was very cold, which made Chen Zong a little unbearable, so he had to use Zhenjian Tianjue Gong to mobilize his energy and blood to keep warm.
However, the running skills will also consume the power of Qi and blood bit by bit, but it is not as much as the human-level martial arts, but it cannot last for too long. It will stop after a period of time and let it recover.
In the middle of the night, another monster approached Chen Zong, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
This is an iron-backed green wolf, which is also a common first-class monster beast in Fulong Mountain.
It tiptoed around and approached Chen Zong from the side. When it was about the same distance, the iron-backed green wolf jumped up and rushed towards Chen Zong like a bolt of lightning. Its sharp claws fiercely grabbed Chen Zong's arms, its sharp mouth opened and its sharp fangs opened, and it bit hard.
Chen Zong's neck.
His closed eyes suddenly opened, and the iron sword resting on his legs rose up from nowhere. He unsheathed the sword and the sword's light shone brightly in the night sky, surpassing the bright moon in the sky.
A sword, with an astonishing sharpness, stabbed at the iron-backed green wolf that was rushing towards him. It penetrated straight through its open mouth, pierced the throat, and broke out from the back of the neck.
With a flick of his wrist and a slight tremble of the long sword, the iron-backed green wolf, which was still about to fight back, flew dozens of meters away, landed on the ground and rolled back for another dozen meters.
"Power control is more subtle." Chen Zong secretly said.
However, he also knew that with his current strength, it would not be a problem to kill a top-grade monster like the Iron-backed Blue Wolf, but he could not kill it with one sword. This time, there was some luck involved.
Perhaps due to good luck, Chen Zong did not encounter a second-level monster, so he spent the night without any danger and continued on his way.
The longer he stayed in Fulong Mountain, the more experienced Chen Zong was in surviving in the wild. If it were not that his cultivation level was too low and his strength was insufficient, he would not want to leave as soon as possible.
On the third day, Chen Zong rescued an injured warrior and applied medicine to his wound.
Then, he saw what it means to be unpredictable. When Chen Zong was not paying attention, this person actually made a sneak attack to kill Chen Zong. Fortunately, Chen Zong had five senses and keen intuition, so he responded immediately. In addition, the other party was highly skilled in cultivation.
, but the injury was not serious, and he did not pay too much attention to Chen Zong.
As a result, not only did the sneak attack fail to kill Chen Zong, but Chen Zong avoided it and counterattacked with a sword.
"Stop, I'm willing to give you all these things." The warrior, who had cultivated to the seventh level of Qi and Blood Realm, covered his chest and said repeatedly with a pale face.
"Okay." Chen Zong looked cold and stern. He was kind enough to save people but was repaid with evil and was almost killed. He felt bad.
"I'll throw it over, you catch it." The warrior said, throwing the baggage in his hand towards Chen Zong, while leaning back, as if he was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, the man's figure turned around, seemingly retreating but actually advancing, bringing up an afterimage that appeared on the left side of Chen Zong. The short knife in his hand stabbed Chen Zong's neck fiercely.
The knife was stabbed, and there was no one under the knife. I suddenly felt that something was wrong, but it was already too late.
Chen Zong used the Wind Step to dodge and approach, and the iron sword penetrated his heart directly from behind, killing him with one strike.
In fact, even if this person really handed everything over to Chen Zong, Chen Zong had no intention of letting him leave.
The sword is a killing sword. It cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately, but kill those who deserve to be killed.
The dagger was made of fine iron and was worth some jade coins. Chen Zong hung it on his waist and carried it with him. Inside the bag, there were seven third- and fourth-grade herbal medicines, a few energy pills, animal blood pills, some dry food and Huozhezi, etc.
.
I searched the warrior's body again and found a money ticket and ten purple jade coins.
Jade coins are the currency in circulation. They are divided into white, red, purple and white jade coins with the lowest face value. One ruby coin is equal to ten white jade coins, one purple jade coin is equal to ten ruby coins, and the face value of one coin is one thousand white jade coins.
The total value is two thousand white jade coins. For Chen Zong, who has never received many jade coins since he was a child, this is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
On the fourth day, Chen Zong was chased by a second-level low-grade monster. He used Wind Step many times and managed to escape by chance.
By the fifth day, Chen Zong looked embarrassed, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes, but his eyes were sharper.
"We must leave Fulong Mountain as soon as possible, otherwise we may not be able to hold on if we continue." Chen Zong thought to himself and chose the direction again.
Five days of surviving in the mountains gave me some experience, and I could judge based on experience. The rest was left to luck.
Thinking about it, my luck shouldn't be too bad.
Soon, Chen Zong knew that his luck was very bad.
Run, run, run!
Run for your life!
A race to the death!
Behind Chen Zong, there were twelve iron-backed green wolves chasing him.
One-on-one, even one-on-two, or even one-on-three, one can be sure to kill the Iron-backed Green Wolf, but one-on-twelve is no different from directly delivering food.
Stepping on the Wind in the Realm of Dacheng!
One step, two steps, three steps!
One step is three meters. In an instant, three steps is nine meters. Keep running.
His footsteps are as fast as rolling wheels, and his body is like the wind, leaping over grass and trees and over stones.
Chen Zong once again hoped that he could have better luck and escape the pursuit of the twelve iron-backed green wolves behind him, but the cruel reality once again made him realize that relying on luck was unrealistic.
In front of him was a mountain wall, as was the one on the right. It was thirty or forty meters high, vertical, covered with moist moss, and difficult to climb. On the left was a cliff. When Chen Zong got closer, he saw that it was a hundred meters high. If he jumped off, he would fall to pieces.
cake.
Behind him are twelve iron-backed green wolves.
With his back against the mountain wall, Chen Zong moved slowly, his eyes as sharp as swords, staring closely at the iron-backed green wolf that had stopped running but formed a fan-shaped circle and slowly approached.
Monsters have certain wisdom, and the iron-backed green wolf is even more cunning.
"If there is no way to retreat, then don't retreat and fight desperately. Maybe there is still a chance of survival." Chen Zong secretly thought, decisively.
The ruthless strategy means not only being ruthless to your enemies, but also being ruthless to yourself.
The twelve iron-backed green wolves were approaching step by step, putting more and more pressure on Chen Zong. Chen Zong also paced slowly, adjusting his momentum and not falling behind at all.
Under such pressure, Zhen Jian Tian Jue Gong's operation speed was a little faster than usual.
Chen Zong's eyes swept over the twelve iron-backed green wolves, and he slowly moved to the intersection of the two mountain walls, so that he would face fewer attacks at the same time.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a depression on the left side of the mountain wall. The inside of the depression was flat and unnatural, and its shape gave Chen Zong a familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Feeling happy, Chen Zong thought about the black iron piece he got after defeating the snake man. Isn't the shape similar to the depression in the mountain wall?
A surge of hope emerged from the bottom of my heart. While staring at the twelve iron-backed green wolves, I held a sword in my right hand and gathered strength. I took off my baggage with my left hand and took out a black iron piece. With the mentality of giving it a try, I put the black irregular triangle
Press the iron piece into the depression.
Match!
It matches perfectly!
An unexpected surprise hit Chen Zong's heart directly, but he did not dare to let down his guard because of it. He took a deep breath and calmed down.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths passed, and nothing happened.
"Is it just a coincidence?" Chen Zong couldn't help but secretly thought: "It looks like we really have to fight hard."
His eyes were even colder.
At this time, one side of the mountain wall inlaid with black iron pieces shook slightly, and a dull, rattling sound sounded, which was extremely harsh. The mountain wall split directly inside, revealing a hole half a meter wide and two meters high.
Without any hesitation, Chen Zong dodged and immediately got into the hole.
Twelve iron-backed green wolves ran and howled in pursuit, but the entrance to the cave closed again, causing the twelve iron-backed green wolves to howl in anger, but there was nothing they could do.
"Where is this place?" After entering the cave entrance, Chen Zong looked around, but it was pitch black, and he couldn't see his fingers. Chen Zong quickly took out the fire stick and broke it off. The flames burned and gradually became stronger, and the fire light illuminated the surrounding area for several meters.
, so that Chen Zong can see clearly.
Holding a sword in one hand and a fire stick in the other, he kept a high degree of vigilance and walked forward slowly. There were flat walls on the left and right sides, like the passage of a secret room. There was also a brazier hanging in it. There was only a little animal fat left in the brazier. This was usually
Used as a fire starter.
Ignite the animal fat paste in the brazier respectively, and the flame will rise and become bright.
