Zhou Qing was practicing martial arts, and the others were also doing their own things. Bai Ruoyue, He Feng, and Shen Yu were in charge of vigilance.
Zhou Qing would also observe the surrounding situation from a God's perspective.
Even after entering Black Mountain, one still needs to rest and practice, but the time for practice is much shorter than usual.
Fighting is a way to become stronger, and so is meditation or practicing martial arts.
Combining the two will result in higher efficiency.
This is already the third day that Zhou Qing and his team have been in the mountains.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, there was a sound of powerful force breaking through the air, and then an ancient tree that was as thick as several people could hug fell to the ground with a loud bang, startling countless birds.
The noise attracted everyone, and everyone turned their eyes to the source.
There was a stream of red air flowing out of Zhang Yuantao's hands. It was extremely terrifying and it could knock down the ancient tree from mid-air.
True Qi breaks the body!
"Third Junior Brother, you have made a breakthrough?" Bai Ruoyue was surprised.
Zhang Yuantao slowly finished his exercise, exhaled lightly, and had a smile on his face.
"I have been in the tendon and vein realm for half a year, and today I finally broke through."
"I would also like to thank Junior Brother. If it weren't for the spiritual plants you brought us to, I'm afraid it would take me some time to take this step."
During the search in the previous few days, they encountered a spiritual plant that was extremely helpful to Zhang Yuantao's current situation. After taking it, they gave it to him on the spot.
Zhang Yuantao looked at Zhou Qing with eyes full of gratitude.
Zhou Qing waved his hand, "Third Senior Brother has accumulated a lot of experience, I just played a little supporting role."
Zhang Yuantao stopped talking, everything was self-evident. He would never forget this kindness.
Go through fire and water, little brother!
"Good, good, good." Bai Ruoyue was very happy, "Now our Taibai Martial Arts School has three martial artists at the Viscera Realm."
Bai Ruoyue is happy when Taibai prospers. It is her dream to promote Taibai.
"Fourth Junior Brother, Fifth Junior Brother, you must also work hard!"
Su Changan and He Feng smiled. They certainly would not slack off. Both of them had been in the minor stage of tendon and vein realm for quite some time. With the gains they had made in Black Mountain this time, they might be able to make further progress quickly.
As for Shen Yu, unless she encounters some rare treasure, there is no hope of a breakthrough for the time being.
As for Zhou Qing...
Everyone tacitly agreed not to compare themselves with Zhou Qing.
After spending several days together, everyone noticed something strange about Zhou Qing.
Su and He were at the same level as Zhou Qing, and each of them refined a dragon vein grass.
After the refining is completed, everyone will compare after some practice.
If a dragon vein grass makes the latter two people stronger by one point, then Zhou Qing's improvement can reach three to five points, or even more. The speed of getting stronger is too fast.
This is just the difference caused by the time it takes to refine a dragon vein grass. If the time is extended, the difference in the improvement between the two sides will be even greater.
When the comparison results came out, everyone was dumbfounded. No wonder Zhou Qing cultivated so fast.
But the resources used by the three people seemed the same to Bai Ruoyue and the others, so in the end it could only be concluded that...
Talent, all talent.
Junior brother has unparalleled talent and secret martial arts, so he is so powerful. The facts are in front of us.
There is really no other explanation except talent! There is no need to compete with such freaks, they just need to practice well on their own.
In the past few days, Zhou Qing felt that his cultivation speed, which had slowed down due to the loss of the Great Thousand Immortal Tree, had increased again.
There is no difference between fairy tree spiritual plants and the spiritual plants in the outside world. The latter can completely make up for the lack of the former. In fact, because of the Black Mountain Incident, Zhou Qing gets more spiritual plants every day than before.
"Today is the third day after the earthquake. I'm afraid many practitioners in Black Cloud Town have discovered something unusual." Zhou Qing said, "We need to work harder."
"Except for the Yun family, I'm afraid everyone else can only follow us and eat dust." Shen Long said with a smile: "They don't have any junior brothers."
The Yun family is special, after all, they are descendants of the mountain god.
"We still can't be careless." Zhang Yuantao shook his head.
"After all, my Taibai Martial Arts School has only been established for more than ten years. Its foundation cannot compare with other forces. For example, they have far more martial artists at the Viscera Realm than our Taibai."
"If they form a team composed entirely of Zang-Fu realm warriors, ignore the periphery, don't go treasure hunting, and go all the way deep, they may be able to catch up with us."
"If an enemy comes, we will stop him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Come on, let it come." Bai Ruoyue was not afraid at all. "They can't possibly send all their experts to Black Mountain."
She has never been afraid of anyone in the internal organs realm of Heiyun Town.
"The strength of the wild beasts nearby is getting stronger and stronger. At the beginning, we could still see wild beasts in the skin and flesh realm, but now those that have just entered the tendon and vein realm are rare." Zhou Qing said from a God's perspective:
"As we go further in, the majority of the beasts will be at the Viscera level. If we split our forces into three groups, it may not be appropriate."
Shen Long looked around, recalling the path they had walked over the past few days, and said, "In the past, the inner area was probably dominated by tendon realm beasts, with a small number of organ realm beasts. Black Mountain has really changed a lot."
In Black Mountain, most of the beasts in the flesh realm are located on the periphery, with a few beasts in the tendon realm mixed in.
The tendons and veins realm mainly move between the periphery and the middle section, with a small number of internal organs realm. In the middle section of Black Mountain, there are a large number of internal organs realm beasts.
The deeper you go, the more wild beasts in the Bone Refining Realm there will be, and those areas are not accessible to ordinary people. Generally, only the heads of various families and hall owners can enter with safety.
But people of their status would not easily take the risk of coming to Montenegro.
However, this was the situation of Black Mountain in the past. Now Black Mountain has changed drastically. For some reason, the high-level beasts always rush out, and the strong expel the weak, so that the overall strength of Black Mountain has increased.
The wild beasts in the Flesh Realm have been driven to the very edge of the Black Mountain, surviving in the cracks.
The number of wild beasts they killed along the way was far less than the number of deaths in the fights between the wild beasts.
In fact, Zhou Qing and his companions did not walk very fast. After all, this trip to Montenegro was not about who could reach the destination first, but mainly about searching for opportunities.
Under the influence of the so-called immortal fortune, there are good things out there.
Moreover, given the current situation in Montenegro, their group cannot go too far, so naturally they have to collect information in as many areas as possible.
"I originally wanted to take this opportunity to see if there is any chance to get the Bone-Grinding Flower, but looking at the current situation, I'm afraid it won't work." Shen Long shook his head.
"Where is that bone-grinding flower?"
"In the middle and back part, there used to be some Bone Refining Realm beasts there, but now..."
I'm afraid there are a large number of wild beasts in the Bone Refining Realm.
After hearing this, Zhou Qing thought about it for a moment. He thought that there might still be a chance for the Bone-Grinding Flower, but they would have to wait until they went deeper to find out.
Everyone continued to set off according to the route planned by Zhou Qing. Zhang Yuantao made a breakthrough, and Zhou Qing was able to be more relaxed when planning the route.
Spiritual plants or rare treasures kept falling into the pockets of the people in Taibai.
In Shen Long's words, the number of spiritual plants he had seen in the past few days was more than what he had seen in the previous few years in Black Mountain.
In Heiyun Town, after the news spread yesterday, warriors rushed into Heishan without stopping and brought back more information.
The wild beasts are more active and frenzied, there are more of them, and the forest is in ruins...
Many warriors were forced back. Their strength was insufficient. They could still survive on the periphery before, but now it is difficult for them to survive even on the edge of Black Mountain.
The world has changed.
Not to mention the monks. The disadvantages in the early stage make most of them can only stare and be spectators at this time, unless there is a team of warriors willing to protect them into Black Mountain.
But there are also warriors who are lucky enough and have actually brought good things out of the Black Mountain.
Black Mountain is very large, and Zhou Qing’s bird’s eye view cannot cover it all. At the same time, in order not to waste time, he can only try to take away the best things.
There are always people in the world who have amazing luck; Zhou Qing never doubts this.
The major forces were much more powerful. All their members at the Viscera Realm charged straight in, and determined how deep they could go based on the strength of the surrounding beasts.
The team with a mixture of flesh and tendons was picking up leaks at the edge and outermost part of the Black Mountain.
This made the already chaotic Montenegro even more turbulent.
"ah!"
With screams one after another, a team of tendon and vein realm was torn to pieces by two organ realm tigers, with blood, flesh and internal organs flying everywhere.
In another place, two warriors at the Zang-Fu realm entered the Black Mountain with great expectations. They went deeper and deeper, but encountered a pack of wolves.
Surrounded by a pack of wolves, even the Zangfu realm seemed powerless.
When the wolves left, the place was covered with blood and some rags and clothes.
A mixed team of organs and tendons was picking a precious flower, but suddenly a hissing sound was heard from the bushes next to them.
A large number of colorful poisonous snakes poured out and covered the area like a snake tide.
When the snake tide receded, several swollen, blackened corpses lay there, their eyes wide open, as if they had died with their eyes open.
This scene is just a corner of the entire Montenegro.
When a large number of warriors poured into Black Mountain, death became a common occurrence.
Suddenly, he encountered a wild beast. When he was lucky enough to find a spiritual plant, he was torn to pieces by the guardian beast and was killed by other warriors...
No one can predict which will come first, the surprise or the shock.
A place of opportunity? This is more like a killing hell! After many lives were lost in Black Mountain, the frenzied Black Cloud Town finally sobered up a little.
Treasures are good, but you also need ability and luck.
The Black Mountain is now full of violent and free-roaming wild beasts. If you are not careful or have some bad luck, you will die!
The head of the Lin family made a public appearance to admonish the warriors.
"Everything is unknown and dangerous in the Black Mountains."
"No one can predict the future in Black Mountain and be reckless!"
Lu Qingmo and Bai Tian were both very worried, fearing that something might have happened to Zhou Qing and the others in there as well.
They also agreed with what the head of the Lin family said.
No one can predict the future, no one!
It doesn't matter if you don't get the treasure, you must get out safely.
Ruoyue and the others shouldn't be reckless, right?
You must be careful and cautious, you must hide well, and don't rush around recklessly! ...
Some people died, but naturally some people were lucky enough to successfully obtain the treasure.
"Zhen Yuan Fruit, a good thing, can increase Zhen Qi, and is also somewhat useful for the internal organs."
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
Gao Yuan was delighted when he looked at the purple fruit in his hand. He took out a brocade box and preserved it with great care.
Those who were traveling with him all laughed and were full of energy.
"Although the Black Mountain is dangerous now, it does have many treasures." One person laughed and said, "The True Yuan Fruit is a rare treasure. We are so lucky that we only suffered minor injuries and got this treasure."
"It is my destiny."
Gao Yuan laughed loudly, feeling very proud.
I’ve only been here for a few hours and I’ve actually gotten a Zhenyuan Fruit. I, Gao Yuan, have incredible luck.
This kind of treasure is extremely precious! So what if the people from Taibai Martial Arts School came in a few days earlier than me?
If they were less lucky, let alone getting the treasure, they would have suffered heavy casualties! With their strength, the people in Taibai Martial Arts School must be hiding in a corner and trembling.
…
"How come there is another Zhenyuan Fruit?" Shen Yu's voice sounded with a hint of disappointment. He picked the fruit and threw it into the space bag casually.
"What are you talking about? Is the Zhenyuan Fruit not a good thing?" Bai Ruoyue hit Shen Yu on the head.
Shen Yu touched his head and said, "We picked up the True Yuan Fruit as soon as we entered Black Mountain. We now have ten of them."
I feel like vomiting when I see the Zhenyuan Fruit.
"Senior Sister Yu's standards are getting higher and higher." Zhou Qing said with a smile.
"Hehe." Shen Yu smiled embarrassedly.
"It's all because of my junior brother who is so awesome."
The treasures that can exist along the route he planned are naturally of high level.
Zhenyuan Fruit is considered a relatively low-grade fruit among their harvest, the kind that they would only pick if it was on the way.
The three of them walked in Montenegro in a swaggering manner, talking and laughing all the way, feeling comfortable and leisurely, as if they were strolling in a garden, and they were not nervous at all.
Occasionally, when she encounters a butterfly, Shen Yu will chase it with a smile after getting Zhou Qing's consent.
It's like an outing, enjoying the mountains and rivers.
Danger?
Don't talk nonsense. There is no danger in Montenegro. It is very safe. If you spread rumors about Montenegro again, I will be angry with you.
How could it be dangerous to pick up money from a sack? Was he afraid of hurting his waist? In front, Shen Long and Zhang Yuantao had already met up and were waiting for Zhou Qing and the other two.
Their target this time is the rare treasure, the Life Tree, and its derivative treasures guarded by four wild beasts in the Viscera Realm.
The Vitality Tree, its trunk can be used to make magical instruments, and its fruit has effects on people from the Flesh and Skin Realm to the Bone Refining Realm. If the number reaches ten, it will be of great help to those in the Marrow Cleansing Realm when eaten.
Its leaves are used to make tea in water all year round, which can easily enhance vitality and even prolong life, but the effect is not very obvious.
These rare and precious treasures, if placed in a county town, would be fought over by various forces, and the treasures that would cause a fight would be enough to become the foundation.
Compared with the True Essence Fruit and the Vitality Tree...
What kind of garbage is the True Yuan Fruit? But even when facing the Vitality Tree, Zhou Qing was very calm.
Sorry, they have already obtained more than one treasure of this level.
I've seen it a lot, it's no big deal.
Tianyue County City.
Ye Zhong said to Yuan Fang, "The Yuan family should have received the news about Black Cloud Town, right?"
Yuan Fang nodded, "The family has already sent experts to Black Cloud Town, and the same goes for other forces."
“Alas.” Ye Zhong sighed, “These are troubled times. I wonder how many of my fellow Taoists will be trapped in the Black Mountain.”
"Master, life and death are determined by fate. You can't blame others." Yuan Fang shook his head. "The various forces in the county and even the higher-ups have been coveting Black Mountain for who knows how many years. Now that there is such an opportunity, no one will let it go."
"Yes, you are right." Ye nodded. "There is something wrong with the mountain god. If everyone can exercise restraint and not send in those who are too powerful, it will be the last respect for the mountain god."
After learning that Montenegro allowed outsiders to enter, many people guessed something and thought that the mountain god might have compromised.
The dying mountain god is worth fearing, but he will die eventually, and what happens after his death has to be considered.
The news of the Black Mountain incident reached Heiyun Town yesterday. After just one night, all the forces in Tianyue County were on the way.
It can be foreseen that this is not the end, not the limit.
Just as Yuan Fang said, everyone has been coveting Montenegro for too long.
There are many places in the world that can be called paradise. There are also places better than Black Mountain, but most of them are owned by others.
Who dares to covet a blessed land that has an owner? And Black Mountain will soon be ownerless.
And there is also the omission of the chance to ascend to immortality. Although this is not a complete chance to become an immortal, it is also extremely attractive.
That morning, troops from various forces in the county city arrived in Heiyun Town one after another.
The two departments of Taoism and Martial Arts of the imperial court, two major families, two Taoists and one Buddhist, four major martial arts schools and many independent practitioners all showed up in Heiyun Town.
The tendons and veins realm and the internal organs realm are the mainstream, and there is also a small number of bone refining realms mixed in.
As for the Flesh and Skin Realm, there is no point in sending them.
Everyone looked at Montenegro with extremely fiery eyes.
A casual cultivator at the Bone Realm in the county town disregarded the rules and entered the Black Mountain, intending to plunder treasures.
But it didn't have the strength to struggle and was swallowed up by the cracked earth.
This scene shocked everyone.
The mountain god appeared.
After that, no warrior above the Organ Refining Realm dared to cause trouble. Even in Black Cloud Town, warriors from other places in the Bone Refining Realm were extremely low-key and did not dare to cause trouble.
The mountain god was about to die and had some concerns, but they were not the ones he was concerned about.
They were able to enter Montenegro by luck.
Before the mountain god got into trouble, outsiders couldn't even enter Black Cloud Town, let alone the Bone Refining Realm, let alone the Internal Organ Refining Realm.
The mountain god even further restricted outsiders. Once the team entering the mountain from each force reached a certain size, they could no longer send anyone.
Otherwise, if all the families in the county city join hands, they will be able to encircle and suppress all parties in Heiyun Town.
This is the mountain god's care for his hometown.
Those who are truly capable of communicating directly with the mountain god will not care about these trivial matters and will let the mountain god do it.
The Black Mountain God was born in black clouds and was deified in Black Mountain. He protected his hometown for hundreds of years and was still thinking about his hometown when he was about to die. This is really admirable.
On that day, news came from Black Mountain that a warrior from the Junding Wusi, who was close to the ultimate organ realm, had obtained a precious medicine that could help him enter the bone refining realm.
Good news also came from other forces. Although the gains were not as valuable as those of the County Dingwu Division, they were not completely fruitless either.
This greatly motivated everyone.
As for the danger?
They are mentally prepared.
Until the evening, there was occasional good news, but they were not particularly precious treasures.
This made some people with powerful backgrounds suspicious. The party from Heiyun Town went in yesterday, and they went in today. Although they gained something, how come there were so few truly precious things? This was inconsistent with the rumor that there were treasures everywhere and "picking up money in sacks"?
Which link went wrong? Some people pondered, while others suddenly realized.
It must be Taibai and the Yun family who did it! But they looked at the Yun family, then looked in the direction of Taibai Martial Arts School, and finally lost their temper.
I can't afford to offend any of them.
The Yun family is the descendant of the mountain god. Who dares to move until the mountain god really falls? Taibai only has one day, but this day is also a top master in the county city, and there is no way to deal with him.
Humph, it's best not to let our people meet your people in the Black Mountain, otherwise we will definitely teach them a lesson! The strength of the genius of the county city cannot be challenged.
As for Zhou Qing, the number one genius in Black Cloud who was promoted to the Tendon and Veins Realm within a month?
And what about Bai Ruoyue, who was promoted to the Viscera Realm at the age of sixteen and was the No. 1 genius before Heiyun? Ha, you are bragging without thinking. If you have the guts, jump out and let us see. I also said that my disciple is the reincarnation of an immortal! Who doesn't brag?
But after further inquiries, the people in the county town suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Among the seven people who entered Taibai Martial Arts School, only two were at the internal organs level, and the rest were all at the tendons and veins level.
this……
What a rubbish lineup. I’m afraid they can only hide carefully and tremble in fear. They can’t even enter the Black Mountain Interruption. How can they get the treasure?
If they could get some good treasure with this kind of strength, they would just drink up all the water in Yunjiang River!
