Chapter 48: Entering the Qingling Mountains for the first time (1)
After listening to Hong Ling's words, Xiao Che turned around subconsciously, only to see the person coming with long reddish-brown hair and an extraordinary aura. Who else could it be but Fang Chihan, the former leader of the Red Blood Corps?
Fang Chihan glanced at the mission in Xiao Che's hand and laughed loudly: "It seems that Brother Mo is indeed destined to be with our Red Blood Mercenary Group. Among so many third-level missions, he can choose the mission I released."
Hearing this, Xiao Che's eyes narrowed slightly. With his temperament, he would subconsciously be wary of everyone, and Fang Chihan in front of him was no exception.
At this time, he began to think that the Life Crystal Fruit was one of the important elixirs he was looking for on his trip to the Qingling Mountains. He knew from the collection of books in the Life Spirit Hall that this thing had the ability to warm and nourish life cards, and also learned from the Spirit Master that
We learned that there are Life Crystal Fruits in the Qingling Mountains. However, over the years, only very few Life Crystal Fruits have been discovered in the Qingling Mountains because no one knows the location of the Life Crystal Fruit trees.
Although Xiao Che didn't know where Fang Chihan got the information and route about the Life Crystal Fruit, but if he accepted the mission of the Life Crystal Fruit and wanted to get the Life Crystal Fruit, he would inevitably get involved in the Red Blood Mercenary
During the corps' operation, Xiao Che was caught in a dilemma for a moment.
"What? When you heard that it was a mission issued by our Red Blood Mercenary Group, little brother Mo Qu was going to give up?" Fang Chihan saw Xiao Che's thinking expression and said with a smile.
Xiao Che was stunned when he heard that, then he raised the mission scroll in his hand and said with a smile: "This mission requires the person being hired to have a cultivation level of at least the second line of destiny enlightenment. I was thinking that Captain Fang might not be willing to accept this from me.
You haven’t even reached the realm of Qi Ming, right?”
"Haha, you can't ask for more. I just said that as long as little brother Mo Qu is willing, our Red Blood Mercenary Group welcomes you at any time. What's more, the level of cultivation cannot represent complete strength. Little brother's strength is obvious to all. I don't think anyone will
What to say, I just don’t know what my little brother thinks?” Fang Chihan smiled boldly.
For a moment, many mercenaries looked at Xiao Che, as if they wanted to know how he would choose.
Xiao Che paused for a moment. At this time, he had already made a decision in his heart. It was worth taking a little risk for the life crystal fruit. Then he nodded and said: "In this case, it is better for Mo Qu to be respectful than to obey."
"That's very good. Fang will welcome Little Brother Mo here to join our Red Blood Mercenary Group."
He looked at Fang Chihan with a smile on his face. He didn't feel very happy. Instead, he was a little confused. Why was the leader of a high-level mercenary group so interested in him? He valued his own strength, but what he had shown before was just that.
The reason why he was able to easily defeat Wang Heng in the Three Marks Fate Enlightenment Realm was because he used his own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses. You must know that Wang Heng, as a fortune master, did not use any fortune skills.
"Is there any hidden meaning in this? Do you think I am a member of one of the three great aristocratic families, so you want to make friends with me?" Xiao Che thought about it and felt that this possibility was not high.
"That little brother Mo," Fang Chihan said suddenly hesitantly: "Fang has something to ask, I don't know if I should ask?"
When Xiao Che heard this, the important point came to his mind. He thought that what Fang Chihan said next was the reason why he valued him.
"Captain Fang said it doesn't matter."
Fang Chihan listened for a moment and said with a smile: "Brother Mo is a body cultivator?"
Xiao Che's expression was stunned under the mask, and he thought to himself: "It seems that the physical strength I showed before was too strong, which made them think that I was a body cultivator." Thinking about it on the other hand, this is good, hiding the true energy, and said
It may have unexpected effects.
"I am a body cultivator." Xiao Che nodded.
"Then I wonder if my little brother has the ability to practice Qi?" Fang Chihan asked next.
"No, the Dantian is defective and cannot open up the Qi Sea." When Xiao Che said this, his eyes were naturally unpretentious, and it was not obvious that he was lying at all.
Fang Chihan naturally has a reason for asking this. There are two types of physical practitioners. One type is mainly physical training, supplemented by Qi training, and has true Qi in the body. Of course, generally speaking, the Qi training speed of this type of warrior is
Not as good as
Those who practice physical training. The other type is pure physical cultivators, who do not have a trace of true energy in their bodies and simply use the power of the physical body as a means. The two have the same goal. Once they reach the later stage, the first type of physical cultivators will gradually lose their ability to practice physical Qi.
Due to the speed of body refining, they were eliminated. However, in the early stage, the first type of body cultivators had more attack methods and were relatively more powerful.
Since he was going to pretend, he had to pretend completely. At this moment, Xiao Che decisively said that he was the latter, a pure body cultivator. At the same time, the purple sea of energy in his Dantian was deeply hidden by him, and his soul perception was extremely strong.
, with the level of these Qi Ming Realm mercenaries, they still can't break through his concealment methods.
Even if you encounter some soul experts, you can still let the spirit master take action, so concealing the aura is not a problem.
Hearing what Xiao Che said, Fang Chihan had a general understanding of him, and thought to himself: No wonder Mo Qu's body is so powerful. He is indeed a pure physical cultivator, maybe he has innate divine power.
"Why does Captain Fang have any opinion about me being a body cultivator?" Xiao Che said with a smile, a hint of wariness flashing across his eyes.
"Little brother, don't think too much. In fact, our mission this time is more advantageous for body cultivators." Fang Chihan continued, fearing that Xiao Che would be suspicious.
"What does this mean?" Xiao Che was confused.
"You will know when the time comes." Fang Chihan smiled secretly without revealing the secret.
"..."
"Okay, little brother Mo, let's take a rest first. We will set off for the Qingling Mountains in the early afternoon."
…
The red sun was heading west, and before the hour was up, Xiao Che and the people from the Red Blood Mercenary Group arrived at the outskirts of the Qingling Mountains. After Xiao Che, three more second-line Destiny Realm warriors joined them, making up a total of fifty people.
Just set off. After some exchanges, Xiao Che became familiar with most of the mercenaries in the team. There were also three body cultivators among them. However, their auras were not too strong. There was a lonely and silent man in gray cloak, which made him pay attention to him for a long time.
.
Although the man's aura was hidden by him, the pressure Xiao Che felt from him was no less than that of the group leader Fang Chihan.
"At least he has the cultivation level of the Seven Marks Destiny Realm." Xiao Che guessed based on Fang Chihan's Seven Marks Destiny Realm cultivation, "It seems that this task is not as simple as I thought."
In the third-level mercenary mission, two masters of the seventh-line destiny enlightenment realm and four masters of the fifth- to sixth-line destiny enlightenment realm were hiding among them, which really made Xiao Che feel more cautious.
"Okay, everyone follow me in now, and you are not allowed to leave the team without permission!" Fang Chihan's face was serious, and he exuded the aura of a group leader.
"Yes, Captain." A group of mercenaries responded.
Xiao Che walked among the mercenaries, looking around, carefully studying the jungle skills of the old mercenaries. Since it was his first time to do a mercenary mission, he didn't know some common sense about the jungle, so he could only follow some experienced mercenaries.
Mercenary action, this is one of the reasons why he decided to temporarily join the Red Blood Mercenary Group. Learning the skills of survival in the wild is extremely important. Although he prides himself on being smart, he will never think that he can compete with him in jungle survival.
Experienced mercenary.
Entering the Qingling Mountains, a large group of people walked quietly in the silent forest, and everyone became cautious. However, the monsters outside the Qingling Mountains are mainly low-level monsters and weak lower-level bloodlines.
There were mostly monsters, so although the mercenaries were cautious, they were not too nervous.
The forests in the Qingling Mountains are continuous, with towering ancient trees, overgrown thorns and vines, and countless plants that have grown for who knows how many years. This makes traveling difficult. The mercenaries are all holding sharp blades to skillfully and agilely cut off the vines and thorns blocking the road.
The leader of the group, Fang Chihan, was walking at the front. His Qi attribute was the rare ice attribute. His fingertips condensed a sharp ice thorn, quietly clearing the obstacles on the road without making any sound to attract the monsters.
Even so, we still encountered many monsters along the way, such as thorn-skinned wild boars, locust snakes and other low-level monsters that are good at camouflage. Without exception, these low-level monsters were easily killed.
The edible thorn-skinned wild boars were cut into pieces of pork at lightning speed by a capable mercenary, and roasted with a dance of fire snakes, they became barbecued meat for everyone to enjoy.
Generally speaking, things are pretty peaceful as we move around the Qingling Mountains.
After walking for about two kilometers, all the mercenaries were a little slack. At this time, among the lush branches and leaves of a huge locust tree, a black-faced demon spider as big as a washbasin suddenly attacked everyone, a huge green
The spider web bound the two mercenaries who were caught off guard, and at the same time countless poisonous mists were sprayed out from the monster spider's huge mouthparts, immediately filling the entire battlefield.
The Black-faced Demonic Spider is a low-level bloodline monster with low combat effectiveness, but it is very troublesome. The liquid in its body is extremely poisonous. Even the Qi shield of a mercenary in the Qi Fate Realm can be easily corroded, especially by this range of poisonous mist.
, if it is accidentally inhaled into the body, it may cause paralysis throughout the body, or lead to paralysis in severe cases.
All the mercenaries held their breaths and strengthened the infuriating shield outside their bodies, while a few stronger mercenaries went to save the two trapped companions. Xiao Che's body surface showed a faint red color as soon as Xiao Che's thoughts moved.
As soon as the golden light and poisonous mist touched his body, it was completely burned by the power of the red sun.
Fang Chihan caught a glimpse of Xiao Che's reaction, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that Xiao Che could resist the attack of the poisonous mist with just the blood of his body, and his evaluation of him was a little higher in his heart.
"You don't know how to live and die, you dare to attack!" A middle-aged mercenary in the Red Blood Mercenary Group holding a red sword saw that many people had been poisoned, and his eyes were furious. Then he went straight towards the black-faced spider and held it in his hand.
The long red sword burst into flames.
Xiao Che glanced at this person. He was the fourth in command of the Scarlet Blood Mercenary Group. His name was Chen Yan, and he was one of the four masters of the Destiny Realm. As soon as Chen Yan took action, he immediately revealed the five lines of Destiny Realm.
With his strong fighting power, his figure flashed rapidly, and he avoided the black-faced demon spider's venom spray and the fierce attack of eight spider spears. With his quick eyes and quick hands and dexterous body skills, he easily found the weakness of the black-faced demon spider.
"Drink!" With a soft drink, he waved the flaming sword in his hand and split open the four guarding spider spears. The sharp sword light cut the demon spider's eyes and head in half without any deviation, and the green
Spider blood splattered.
"Brother Chen is so skilled!"
"What a sharp sword! The deputy captain is really powerful!"
Seeing Chen Yan take action to deal with the black-faced demon spider, all the mercenaries couldn't help praising him. Xiao Che also had a look in his eyes. With his current strength, he would have to use at least 80% of his strength to deal with this Chen Yan, regardless of what he had.
In the case of a special move, the five-line destiny-enlightening realm has such strength, which shows how powerful Fang Chihan's cultivation is.
"Alas, I still underestimated these mercenaries!" Xiao Che sighed to himself and began to correct his mentality.
In this sneak attack, only two mercenaries were seriously injured due to negligence, while the others were not seriously injured.
Next, they were attacked by seven or eight monster beasts one after another, one of which was even an outstanding monster of lower bloodline, causing some mercenaries with poor cultivation to suffer some serious injuries. As for Xiao Che, even if not
Using the power of the sun and the moon, he can safely protect himself with only his astonishing speed and defense. After several waves, his strength has also been recognized by some mercenaries.
The group of people moved forward one after another and unknowingly arrived at the area close to Zhongwei. Their destination was deep in Zhongwei in the Qingling Mountains.
At this time, the mercenaries became particularly vigilant. The closer they got to the middle circle, the greater the danger. Even if a demonic beast overlord of lower bloodline appeared at this time, it would not be surprising. The eyes of the group of people were constantly scanning the surroundings.
In the woods, their eyes sometimes intertwined, conveying some safety signals. At the same time, they held weapons tightly with both hands, ready to cope with sudden changes at any time.
At this time, Fang Chihan suddenly raised his arm. Seeing this, all the mercenaries, including Xiao Che, became alert, stopped, held their breath, and tightly held the weapons in their hands!
