Although the other party's Nascent Soul was not left behind this time, the old man's body was destroyed and he would not be able to recover his vitality without a few decades.
What's more, after returning home, one must seize the body, but a suitable body is not so easy to find. Whether it can be found in time is a matter of two minds.
If you have no choice but to find a body at random, your cultivation level will drop drastically.
On the contrary, I got two ancient treasures and the storage bags they left behind out of thin air. This time it was a big harvest. Even if I didn't find any treasures in the Cangkun Master's Cave, this adventure to Mulan Grassland was not in vain.
.
Thinking of this, he looked at the place where the old man's body had turned invisible, and there was a pale silver storage bag floating there.
Bai Ran grabbed the empty space with an unchanging expression, and the storage bag was sucked into his hand, and then his consciousness immersed himself in it without hesitation and swept it around.
As a result, I was greatly disappointed!
Except for the dozen or so mid-level spirit stones inside, the rest are just some ordinary weapon refining materials and a few bottles of elixirs.
As for these medicine bottles, Bai Ran opened the bottle caps and saw that they were all ordinary elixirs, and there was nothing unusual about them. It seems that the Mulan Grassland is indeed very lacking in resources for cultivating immortals, and a dignified Nascent Soul Master actually had...
There aren't many good things.
But there was not a single piece of jade slips or other things that he wanted to see most in the storage bag. This made Bai Ran feel strange and let out a sigh.
Originally, I wanted to get some spiritual skills and see if there was any secret to casting powerful spells instantly. But now it seems that it is not possible in a short time!
Putting away the storage bag, Bai Ran raised his head and stared at the giant peak in the distance with intense eyes.
Although the original owner of this treasure, an old man surnamed Mu, had escaped from his body, the black mountain peak still had its shape unchanged, and the spiritual light on its surface was flashing continuously.
Bai Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and made a slight move towards the treasure. The lost ancient treasure flashed with brilliance, quickly shrank in size, and flew straight towards Bai Ran.
By the time it flew into Bai Ran's hand, it had turned into a palm-sized mini hill again.
Bai Ran curiously weighed the hill in his hand. It was not too heavy. Then he grabbed the ancient treasure with one hand and looked at it carefully several times. At the bottom of the black hill, there were three small pale gold characters engraved on it.
.
"Thousand Peaks" Bai Ran couldn't help but mutter to himself, his eyes showing satisfaction.
After putting the mountain away, Bai Ran looked at the windmill again and put it away together.
After a few glances at the direction in which the old Yuanying disappeared, Bai Ran lowered his head and thought for a moment, then changed direction and flew away to one side.
Soon, Bai Ran's figure disappeared from the nearby sky, leaving no trace at all.
...Three days later, in a place where several hills are connected together in the Mulan Grassland, except for the weeds as tall as a person, there was no one around, and it seemed extremely quiet!
But not long after, a green light flashed from the horizon, and a green rainbow flew from far to near.
After a while, the green rainbow flew over the hill. After circling around for a while, the green light faded, and a white figure appeared high in the sky.
After glancing down twice, he frowned, then suddenly flicked his sleeves and flicked his fingers in the cuffs.
Several rays of green light flew straight towards a hill below like meteors chasing the moon. When they were twenty or thirty feet away from the surface of the hill, the green light exploded, forming a faint white mask.
He appeared below out of thin air. There were four people in the light shield looking up at him, all with faint smiles on their faces.
It was Nanlong, the old man in white shirt, the old woman and the dark-faced Chinese character.
"Haha! It's such a blessing that Fellow Daoist Bai arrived safely!" Nan Long twirled his long beard and said with a laugh. Then he waved his hand and the mask suddenly disappeared.
"Oh! Have the other fellow Taoists arrived yet?" Bai Ran replied with a smile, and slowly floated down, landing in front of the four of them.
"Other fellow Taoists may not be able to escape so easily. When we ran away separately, fellow Daoist Wang and Daoist You were chased by magicians. It may not be an easy task to get rid of the pursuers." The swarthy man shook his head calmly.
said.
"However, Fellow Daoist surprised me even more. If I read correctly, it seems that the wind chariot of the Mulan people is chasing you, Fellow Daoist. Tsk! With the amazing speed of the wind chariot, Fellow Daoist actually also
Being able to escape easily, it seems that I really did not find the wrong person this time." Nan Long said seemingly very happy.
But Bai Ran pursed her lips after hearing this, and faintly heard a hint of surprise from these words.
"It's nothing. Bai is not good at anything else. He still has some confidence in Dunshu Mountain." Bai Ran looked calm but replied vaguely.
Seeing that Bai Ran didn't want to talk about how he escaped, Nanlong didn't have the sense to ask further, and started talking about the impact of the war between the Mulan people on the Nine Nations Alliance and even all the forces in Tiannan.
In addition to the old man in white shirt, the old woman and the man with black face also joined in the conversation with interest.
"I remember that the last battle with the magicians lasted for more than ten years. I don't know how many more years it will last this time. But during this period, the Tiannan Zhengmao Dao and the Tiandao Alliance to which Brother Bai belongs will definitely send people
Participate in the war. And with the Luo Yun Sect's status in the Tiandao League, they will definitely ask for a Nascent Soul stage elder to assist in the battle. Maybe Fellow Daoist Bai will have the opportunity to visit Mulan Grassland again!" Nan Long smiled half-heartedly.
sermon.
"In fact, in addition to the three major forces who will contribute their efforts to assist the Nine Nations Alliance, there are also some casual cultivators who volunteer to resist the magicians, and there are also some who are good at it. I am afraid it will be difficult for the Mulan people to take advantage." The old woman nodded.
Head, said in a low voice.
"But what's strange to me is that the other party clearly knows that once our many forces in Tiannan join forces, the Mulan people's current power will have no chance at all. Otherwise, the last war would have been decided in one battle. But
It's a bit unwise to start a war on your own initiative! Last time, the other side suddenly came with reinforcements, which made them more confident to launch the attack. Could it be that this time they have added some big tribes?" The black-faced man frowned.
, said in a guessing tone.
"It's not impossible, but..."
Just as a few people were discussing, a lot of time passed by unconsciously.
Suddenly, Nan Long, who was speaking, paused, raised his head and looked into the distance. Several other people also subconsciously looked at him, slightly solemn.
This is the Mulan Grassland. Not only are these scattered monks gathering here, but some magicians may be passing by here.
I saw a flash of brilliance in the sky from a distance, a black light, and two blood masses flying straight towards here.
After Nan Longzhi stared at it for a while, his expression calmed down.
"It's okay, it's Daoist Wang and his two juniors." Nan Long said with a smile.
When the others heard this, their expressions also relaxed.
Sure enough, after a while, those rays of light flew closer, and it turned out to be Wang Tiangu and Wang Chan.
This time, Nanlong pulled away the restraint in the air without hesitation, and Wang Tiangu and others landed on the hill where Bai Ran and others were.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Bai actually came earlier than me. What a big surprise for Wang!" Wang Tiangu said with a hint of surprise on his face when he saw Bai Ran standing among a few people.
color.
It seems that this monk from the Ghost Spirit Sect also saw Yu Fengche chasing Bai Ran, and maybe he even gloated about his misfortune for a while!
"It's just a fluke! But Daoist Wang and his two juniors were able to escape unscathed. That's why I admire you so much." Bai Ran glanced at Wang Tiangu and Wang Chan beside him, and replied unhurriedly,
There's something quite profound about it.
"Hehe! The escape speed of the magician who was chasing Wang and the three of them was not very fast. Two juniors and I jointly performed the door escape technique and easily got rid of each other! How could we compete with the magician driving the wind chariot?
"Wan Tiangu replied nonchalantly.
Bai Ran sneered in his heart after hearing this. Just when he was about to say something more, his face suddenly changed and he fell silent.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist You is also here. It seems that we are really lucky, and we all arrived here safely. I was still thinking before, if the person who broke the ban suddenly lacked one or two helpers, could he still be able to do it?
The restriction has been broken!" Nan Long looked up at the sky again and said with joy on his face.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but smile with joy.
If it was really because one person was missing that they couldn't get the treasure, these people would naturally be equally depressed.
"No! You Daoyou seems to be being chased by someone, and he looks a little embarrassed." The old man in white shirt, who was standing alone without saying a word, suddenly said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ran and others were shocked and looked around hurriedly.
I saw the horizon in the distance. Sure enough, there was a white rainbow rushing towards me in front of me, followed by one green and one red, and two rays of light chasing after me.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived on the hill where Nanlong and others were.
Nanlong's expression suddenly became gloomy.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist You is in trouble. However, only two magicians have appeared. Let's all take action together!" Nanlong said decisively, and then his body turned into a ball of golden light and rose into the sky.
After the rest of the people looked at each other, those who had no objections also appeared one after another.
Suddenly eight rays of light of different colors rose from the hill, and hurriedly faced the white rainbow fleeing in front.
Bai Hong, who was originally running towards here, saw this scene, and his speed immediately increased by three points. In a blink of an eye, he was in front of Bai Ran and others. His brilliance dimmed, revealing the cold-faced monk surnamed You.
His face was a little pale, and he seemed to have lost some vitality.
"Thank you all fellow Taoists for coming to support me. I'm very grateful, You!" the cold-faced monk clasped his hands into fists, the anxious look on his face disappeared, and said with a hint of gratitude.
"It's easy to say! Is Taoist friend okay? However, how come there are two magicians chasing Taoist friend from behind? I remember there was only one person?" Nanlong also stopped escaping the light, and showed his body floating in the air, looking at
He asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just that I fought with the person behind me for a long time, and then the other person came to help me. I had to take them for two days and two nights, and my energy was a little depleted!" the cold-faced monk smiled bitterly and said a little helplessly.
"It's no wonder that Fellow Daoist escaped all the way. Faced with two magicians of the same level at the same time, except for Fellow Daoist Nan and Fellow Daoist Yun, the rest of us could only avoid the sharp edge temporarily when we met them." The old woman sighed.
He took a breath and said.
"But the two people who are chasing Taoist friends, let alone their cultivation and magical powers, are really brave. Up to now, they have no intention of retreating. Do they really want to hit the stone with an egg?" Bai Ran looked into the distance, and suddenly
chuckled.
In fact, there is no need to say it in vain, others have naturally seen it.
When the two magicians on the opposite side saw Bai Ran and others appearing, although they stopped at a distance, they did not run away immediately, but watched them coldly from the spot.
But equally, the appearance of these two people could be seen clearly with the powerful consciousness of Bai Ran and others.
One has a golden complexion, a feather crown on his head, and is wearing a hemp bag, and the other is a ferocious-looking man wearing a green shirt. They are all magicians in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
Nanlong snorted coldly when he saw this, and said coldly to the other side:
"The two fellow Taoists are still unwilling to leave. Are you really asking me to wait until I can take action? You two are not afraid that if you are not careful, your body and soul will be destroyed here!"
Nanlong's words were full of threats.
"What a loud tone! Although the two of us are not your opponents, if you say that you can destroy us, it is too much at this moment. The two of us will not fight head-on. As long as we delay for half a day, do you think we can still do it?
Do you have a chance to leave here? It's better to just surrender now. Maybe, this guru will allow you to be reincarnated in this world!" Master Ma Guan rolled his eyes and replied harshly.
"Delayed for half a day? Do you think we and others are all made of mud?" Nan Long laughed angrily.
At the same time, the golden light on his body was so dazzling that people almost dared not look directly at him.
"Maybe not, maybe you can! With so many high-level monks coming to Mulan Grassland, I, as the master, must entertain you well!" Another mage in green shirt said expressionlessly.
"Hmph! It seems that you two have stopped crying without seeing the coffin. Brother Yun, do it!" Nan Long's face darkened, and he turned to the old man in white and said calmly.
But when the old man in white shirt heard this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.
"Originally, I wanted to spend less mana before getting down to business. But we couldn't just let these two people follow us, so we had no choice but to take action!" the old man said with a sigh.
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his mouth, and a silver gun shot out from his mouth. This wheel was about the size of a fist, shining with crystal light, and slowly rotating a few feet in front of his chest.
When the two magicians on the opposite side saw this, they immediately retreated a bit, their bodies glowing brightly, and they looked at the old man warily.
Then Nanlong flicked his sleeve without saying a word, and a golden flying sword flew out of his sleeve.
Bai Ran and others also silently raised their magic power and slowly moved forward.
At this moment, a red light suddenly flashed in the distant sky behind the two people opposite, and then a streak of fire flew from far to near.
Nan Long and others who were about to take action were startled and couldn't help but pause their movements.
The two sorcerers naturally noticed something strange behind them, but the sorcerer Ma Guan among them waved towards the fire with a normal expression.
As a result, the red light circled about a few feet above his head, then fell steadily into his hand, and then exploded, and a ball of flame burned fiercely in the palm of his hand.
This was actually a transmission note that came from nowhere!
"What?"
Maguan Maguan only used his spiritual consciousness to quickly check it, and then screamed out in surprise.
Even though they were hundreds of feet away, Nanlong and others could still clearly see the look of surprise on his face.
The man suddenly turned his head and moved his lips slightly to transmit a message to the green-robed mage on one side. The ferocious-looking mage only listened to a few words, and after his expression changed, he also shouted in a low voice.
Then the two men took a closer look at the monks, and finally their eyes fell on Bai Ran, and their expressions became solemn.
Bai Ran looked as usual, but he vaguely guessed something in his worry.
Mostly it was about the old man surnamed Mu who was seriously injured by him, and only Yuanying had to escape. Could these two people have a close relationship with the old man?
Bai Ran was thinking calmly, but the two magicians glared at Bai Ran fiercely, and then looked at each other with hesitant expressions on their faces.
After a few more words were whispered, the two of them turned into two rainbows, red and green, and flew back without saying a word.
This made Nanlong and others stunned, but after a few hesitations, no one pursued them.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, the two people turned into two spots of light and finally disappeared from the horizon.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, those two people seem to care about you very much. Have you recognized these two magicians before?" Wang Tiangu suddenly asked with a half-smile but no idea.
"I don't know. This is my first time coming to Mulan Grassland. How can I recognize those two people?" Bai Ran replied without hesitation, with a calm expression.
After hearing this, Nan Long frowned, but immediately relaxed.
"Okay, no matter what happened to the two magicians. We still leave here to unlock the restrictions and get the treasure quickly. This is the place of the Mulan people, and we can't stay long." Nanlong didn't respond.
I asked more about what happened just now, but he said it as if nothing happened.
When Wang Tiangu saw what Nan Long had said, he immediately shut up. Although the others were also a little puzzled, they didn't say much.
After all, it looked like the two magicians had some grudge against Bai Ran. They were too lazy to meddle in other people's business.
So, under the leadership of Nan Long and the old man in white shirt, several people turned into several rays of light and quickly left the place.
Follow the edge of the grassland and head west.
...Half a day later, a group of monks arrived at a small bare rocky mountain. The mountain was only a few hundred feet high, with no grass growing on it, and it was covered entirely with huge gray-white rocks.
When they saw this mountain, Bai Ran and others looked surprised.
Is the cave of Master Cang Qiong located in this inconspicuous stone mountain?
There is a lack of spiritual energy here. If Nanlong hadn't led the way, they would have never been able to find this place.
"Okay, this is it. Fellow Taoist Yun and I will open the outer restrictions first, and the other fellow Taoists must follow suit." Nanlong solemnly told Bai Ran and the others, and then he and the old man in white shirt
Stepping forward side by side, facing the mountain, each took out a small flag.
These two small flags are several inches in size. One is green and glittering, and the other is yellow and dim with runes floating in it. They are not ordinary things at first glance.
Seeing Nan Long's behavior, Bai Ran and others couldn't help but hold their breath and watched the two men's spells carefully.
The two people were seen mumbling words, and low-pitched spells were calmly issued from their mouths. At the same time, the two small flags began to flash and glow, and gradually began to shake on their own, as if they were about to fly away.
"go!"
Almost at the same moment, Nan Long and the old man in white shirt let go, and the small flag in their hands shot out.
After a flash of light, the small flag disappeared into a certain rock on the surface of the stone mountain and disappeared.
After a while, everything was as usual, nothing happened.
A trace of doubt appeared on the faces of Bai Ran and others.
The old woman coughed slightly and was about to ask something when the ground beneath her feet suddenly began to tremble, causing most of the people to sway and almost lose their balance.
But the next scene made Bai Ran's complexion change slightly, and he felt shocked.
