Boom! Below Po Yue Mountain, somewhere on the broken ridge debris, a burst of blood and energy suddenly erupted.
The high temperatures gushed out like a volcano, creating scorching waves in the sky.
The wind wave caused Dapeng's body to sway slightly, and it became so angry that it cursed loudly.
The sudden change naturally attracted the attention of Kong Ju and the other two.
"Such a domineering energy and blood! Which physical cultivator is it?" Kong Ju pondered secretly and immediately opened his virtual soul vision.
He saw a pretty face of a woman in tight clothes and short hair on the huge mountain ridge.
And the young man with wildness in his eyes following behind him.
They both looked up at the sky, staring into Kong Ju's eyes from afar.
"Sister Hua, Yuan Xiao." Seeing the two of them, Kong Ju smiled, and then signaled Dapeng to slow down and approach them.
It was unknown when these two people knew that they were going to leave, and they had been waiting here long ago.
Seeing Dapeng approaching, Han Honghua took out a jar of strong liquor that she had prepared long ago and threw it high into the sky.
The wine jar fell accurately on Dapeng's back and was caught by Shangguan Yuzhou.
Han Honghua and Yuan Xiao each held a jar of liquor in their hands and gestured to the three people.
"Little Confucius, Brother Shangguan, and Sister Huangfu, I'm here to see you off with some wine. You're hundreds of thousands of miles away, and I'll send you off here." Han Honghua's hearty laughter shook the heaven and earth.
"Kong Ju, Shangguan Yuzhou, wait for you to come back, then we'll have another fight." Yuan Xiao raised the wine jar to signal without mentioning Huangfu Wuqin.
Kong Ju and Shangguan Yuzhou took turns to take a sip of the liquor, and also clasped their fists and shouted to the people below: "Take care, Sister Hua."
Shangguan Yuzhou sneered at Yuan Xiao and said loudly, "Haha, Yuan Xiao, you better beat Sister Hua first before you challenge me."
This made Yuan Xiao's face darken. If the timing wasn't wrong, he would have thrown away the jar of wine and rushed forward.
"Don't be complacent, I'll beat you when I get back." Yuan Xiao's eyes were fierce, and he cursed angrily: "I was able to beat you last time, and I can beat you this time too."
"You're the one who suppressed me, your grandfather." Shangguan Yuzhou was also unconvinced and cursed loudly, "I'll get back at you when I come back."
The two of them were cursing each other happily.
Han Honghua was not affected at all and looked at Huangfu Wuqin and Kong Ju on Dapeng's back.
"Sister Huangfu, now that you three have left, I will take the number one spot on the Hidden Dragon List." Han Honghua did not forget to tease Huangfu Wuqin before leaving.
Huangfu Wuqin smiled and said in a calm tone: "Let Fellow Daoist Han sit for a few years."
"That's great. Take care on your journey, everyone."
Under the gaze of Han Honghua and Yuan Xiao, Kong Ju also laughed loudly and said, "Take care, Sister Hua. When I come back, I will go to Mo Sheng Sect to find you. We will get drunk together."
As he said this he patted Dapeng's body.
The latter immediately understood, flapped his wings, and the figure that had just landed soared into the sky again.
It created endless waves and quickly swept across the Po Yue Mountain before disappearing into the wilderness where few people had ever been.
During the farewell of both parties.
Neither Kong Ju and his two companions who were on the back of Dapeng, nor Han Honghua and his two companions who were standing on the collapsed ridge of Poyue Mountain, noticed that a skinny old man holding a banner walked out from the devastated foot of Poyue Mountain.
The place where he stood seemed to be isolated from the surrounding space, and there was nothing to the naked eye.
But he actually exists in that place.
There was a cunning look in the old man's eyes as he watched Kong Ju, three others and the bird disappear into the distance. Then he slowly took out a name list and turned to the page with Sang Dong's name on it.
My eyes moved to the paper in the name list, where five or six people's names were written.
They are Lingxi, Huangfu Wuqin, Kong Ju, Lu Wenji, Shangguan Yuzhou and Han Honghua.
The old man pondered for a moment and crossed out the names of Lingxi and Lu Wenji, leaving only Kong Ju, Huangfu Wuqin, Shangguan Yuzhou and Han Honghua.
At this point, he put away the name book, carried the banner on his shoulders, sang a tuneless little song, and took a step forward and was already thousands of miles away.
The echo of the lyrics he sang before leaving can still be heard at the foot of Po Yue Mountain.
"One pill of the golden elixir will surely bring you immortality. You must use real lead to refine the elixir."
"For fire, take the marrow of the red phoenix in the south, and for water, take the essence of the black turtle in the north sea."
…
The distance of 200,000 to 300,000 miles between Wudong and Tianqi is all wilderness.
Endless mountains rise and fall, and among the thousands of mountains and valleys there are dangerous peaks and beautiful mountains and rivers.
Human monks mainly gather in Wudong, Tianqi, Gujiang, Yunmo, or on islands scattered like stars in the endless sea.
This area that other cultivators dare not set foot in easily is undoubtedly a paradise for monsters.
There are countless monsters living in the vast jungle. There are also many demon kings who rule the mountain tops, making it a forbidden area for cultivators.
Many folk tales and even documents recorded in ancient books contain many horrifying stories about those isolated areas.
Some people have speculated that the abyss leads to the underworld.
Some people have also seen a giant as tall as the sky and the earth in an uninhabited area, carrying a palace on its back and moving forward in the wilderness.
Rumor has it that it chases the scorching sun, day after day, without getting tired. The area where it is is always daytime, and it seems to be avoiding the moonlight.
And what it carries on its back is the palace of the immortals.
During that period when immortals came to the world, there were even true immortals who met with misfortunes and died in the endless wilderness.
On the night of his death, the stars buried him, and dozens of meteors fell from the night sky and landed in the uninhabited area.
A bonfire was lit in the night of the wild jungle.
Kong Ju, Shangguan Yuzhou and Huangfu Wuqin sat around the campfire, while Dapeng turned into the size of a rooster and fell asleep beside Kong Ju's thigh.
In the night, one could still vaguely hear Kong Ju's voice, "Similar legends are as numerous as the stars. The rumors with sources recorded in the literature alone are too numerous to count."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Not to mention the stories passed down by word of mouth by the monks. Even if we talk for three days and three nights, we can't finish them."
The burning flames occasionally caused dry wood to explode, making crackling sounds.
Seeing that Kong Ju was talking excitedly, Shangguan Yuzhou handed him a jar of wine, suggesting that he moisten his throat.
Kong Ju took it and took a sip, smiling.
This was already the third day of their journey. With Dapeng's rapid speed, they had already penetrated deep into this wild area for who knows how many tens of thousands of miles and could no longer see any other cultivators.
The area where they were was surrounded by ancient trees that were over a hundred feet tall, and when they looked up they could only see a palm-sized patch of night sky.
There was dead silence all around, and occasionally one could hear the roar of some unknown monster in the dark.
Traveling is undoubtedly very boring. Kong Ju read countless miscellaneous books during the years he stayed in the Miscellaneous Book House. Listening to him telling those Arabian Nights stories is a rare pastime on the road.
Shangguan Yuzhou loved reading travelogues, so of course he listened with great interest.
Huangfu Wuqin appeared to be looking at the bonfire, letting the flames shine on her beautiful facial features, her eyes were dull and she looked absent-minded.
In fact, he had already pricked up his ears and was listening with great interest.
"But Junior Brother Kong, is this wild land really so terrifying? Why have we come here so far, and apart from the nice scenery along the way, why haven't we encountered those legendary things you mentioned?"
Shangguan Yuzhou was a very serious student. He asked Kong Ju earnestly, "There have been many monks who have crossed the wild areas in the past few decades. Why haven't I heard them talk about it?"
"I told you it's just a legend! Legend!" Kong Ju spread his hands, signaling Shangguan Yuzhou not to take it seriously, as he was just telling a story.
"Brother Shangguan, just listen for fun, don't take it too seriously."
"In today's world, even immortals can no longer be seen. Those legends have also disappeared in the long river of time as the immortals left."
Huangfu Wuqin disagreed. He leaned over with his hands supporting his chin, and whispered to Kong Jue: "When I was a child, Lei Zun also told me these stories. He said that the immortals might not have really disappeared. Maybe they are waiting for a certain opportunity, a time for them to be reborn."
"The immortal's dream lasts for thousands or tens of thousands of years, so we can't see it anymore." Kong Ju shook his head, his tone full of sighs.
The three of them have all entered the Ascension Wheel cultivation stage. Once they enter the Ascension Wheel, they can add two hundred years to their lifespan, but in reality their lifespan is only two or three hundred years.
When one reaches the age of palm life, he can live longer, as long as his soul is immortal, but at most he can only live seven or eight thousand years.
It’s not even time for the immortal to take a nap.
At this point, Kong Ju was also tired, and yawned lazily, and said to Huangfu Wuqin: "Senior Sister Huangfu, please take a rest early and sit down. We still have to travel tomorrow."
As he said this, he reached out and touched Dapeng who was sleeping soundly beside his thigh.
The big peng carried them on its back and flew for three days and three nights without sleep. Even though it was born extraordinary, it was still exhausted.
"You guys go to sleep, I'll be on duty tonight!" Shangguan Yuzhou felt refreshed after hearing the story. As he spoke, he rushed to the top of the nearest ancient tree with his sword in hand.
Even in the blessed land of Qinghu, Shangguan Yuzhou was defenseless. Relying on the sword energy to protect his body, he was fearless.
Now that he had arrived in this area, he became cautious.
"Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother Shangguan." This was of course what Kong Ju was happy to see. He smiled warmly and bowed upwards.
He had originally thought of placing a few mice or small snakes to keep watch nearby at night.
Since Shangguan Yuzhou is on duty personally, there is no need for that.
Huangfu Wuqin also yawned lazily. She did not practice cultivation. She snatched Dapeng away from Kong Ju, used it as a pillow, and closed her eyes peacefully.
She completely ignored the fact that her beautiful figure was exposed in front of Kong Ju.
Kong Ju felt that something was wrong, so he took out a green shirt and gently covered her with it, muttering, "Senior Sister Huangfu, if you sleep like this, I, your junior brother, will not be able to practice."
After doing all this, Kong Ju sat down by the campfire, slowly closed his eyes, and began to practice.
He needs to reach the peak of foundation building as soon as possible.
