Chapter 62: Weird and Evil
In order to let them escape and survive, Xu Bo burned up his remaining energy and sacrificed himself to block Wan Yunxiang and Wei Zhongzheng, and then died of exhaustion.
The reason why Lord Mo and his companions fled into the depths of the Fallen Dragon Mountain was because it was said that a fourth-grade dragon had once fallen in the mountain.
The dragon was killed by a mysterious strong man, and its blood was spilled all over the Fallen Dragon Mountain.
Afterwards, after the death of the dragon, its resentment remained and attracted many evil spirits to occupy it.
To be honest, if the situation had not forced him to do so, Lord Mo would not have wanted to set foot in this damp, cold, and haunted place.
Ever since they hid in the depths of Fallen Dragon Mountain, they have encountered attacks from demons several times. Fortunately, the demons they encountered were not strong enough to deal with them.
But the most fatal thing at the moment is that there are dangers everywhere in the depths of Fallen Dragon Mountain, and they don’t even have a place to rest safely.
Coupled with the pursuit and interception by the Forbidden Martial Arts Guards and martial arts masters, Mo Shenjun and others had already felt physically and mentally exhausted, and only relied on their willpower to hold on.
If no reinforcements arrive, they will probably be dragged to death here.
Mo Shenjun and his companions did not dare to stop for a moment. When they passed by a locust tree forest, they walked for a long time but were unable to get out successfully.
Suddenly someone realized something was wrong and said, "We seem to be trapped. We seem to be going around in circles in the same place."
After hearing what he said, the others quickly noticed something was wrong and became alert.
After some investigation, everyone's faces became increasingly ugly.
"Your Highness, this place is too weird. I found the mark I made earlier to avoid getting lost. We have indeed been going around in circles."
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew.
Everyone felt as if countless hands appeared on their backs, and suddenly a chill crept up from the soles of their feet up their spine and rushed straight to their heads.
"We are not going to run into the legendary ghost wall, are we?"
"It's getting dark, can we still go out?"
"My Lord, what do you think?"
Everyone turned to look at Lord Mo.
Seeing this, Lord Mo hesitated for a moment, looked up at the gradually darkening sky, and said resolutely: "Let's make a fire here. We will spend the night here tonight, and find a way to leave this place tomorrow morning."
"Yes, sir." Everyone nodded in response.
Although they were still somewhat uneasy, they had to obey the prince's orders absolutely.
The Silver Armored Army was responsible for night duty, working in groups of three, taking turns every hour and a half.
Lord Mo sat by the campfire, closed his eyes, and recuperated his injuries.
Wei Zhongzheng's palm was too vicious and cruel. He injected his extremely yin internal force into Lord Mo's body, continuously eroding the latter's vitality.
Lord Mo first needs to dissolve or force out the extremely yin internal energy in his body, otherwise his injuries will only get worse.
After many days of practicing Qigong and regulating breathing, most of the extreme Yin energy in Lord Mo's body has been dissolved by him, and it will be completely eliminated tonight.
When his injuries are fully recovered, he will find an opportunity to kill Wan Yunxiang and Wei Zhongzheng to avenge Xu Bo's death.
Before they knew it, fog had risen around them, and creepy sounds of ghosts and wolves howling could be heard from the fog, making everyone's scalps tingle and they clenched their weapons.
What no one noticed was that a strange aura quietly penetrated into everyone's bodies through the mist.
After Lai Yang learned that Lord Mo and others had escaped into the depths of Fallen Dragon Mountain, he dived into the depths of the mountain without hesitation.
As expected, not far away, Lai Yang discovered a large number of troops from the Great Yan Dynasty, as well as many masters from the martial arts sects.
Lai Yang did not alarm them. He disguised himself as a gangster who came to assist in the search and successfully sneaked into the Fallen Dragon Mountain.
However, Lai Yang soon discovered that although these people seemed to be searching for the whereabouts of Mo Shenjun and others, most of them only dared to stay in the relatively peripheral areas, and no one dared to go deep into the Fallen Dragon Mountain.
After some inquiries, Lai Yang learned that it was not that they did not want to go into the mountains to search for Mo Shenjun and others, but that they did not dare to.
There are not only many powerful demons in the depths of Fallen Dragon Mountain, but also an even more terrifying and strange curse.
Rumor has it that it was formed from the resentment left behind by the slayer dragon after its death. Once contaminated, it is very likely to turn into a mindless murderous flesh and blood puppet.
Even a fifth-rank martial arts grandmaster wouldn't dare to stay there for a long time.
Hearing this, Lai Yang was shocked. How could Fallen Dragon Mountain be so dangerous? Wouldn't it be more dangerous for Lord Mo and his men the longer they delayed?
Lai Yang hesitated, but then he remembered that he had a systematic all-round defense point increase. As long as he found Lord Mo and brought him out immediately, there shouldn't be any problem.
If there was anything unusual happening to his body, he would immediately come out of Fallen Dragon Mountain.
With this thought in mind, Lai Yang no longer hesitated and went into the depths of Fallen Dragon Mountain alone.
The cold and evil aura made Lai Yang feel a little uncomfortable. He enhanced his five senses to the maximum, and any movement around him could not escape his perception.
Lai Yang went deeper and deeper in the direction of the search. Suddenly, a monster with bloodshot eyes jumped out and was killed by him with a single sword.
Lai Yang subconsciously stopped and checked its condition.
This monster is only at the seventh level of cultivation, how dare it attack him?
In order to save himself from unnecessary trouble, Lai Yang deliberately exuded the aura of a fifth-grade martial arts grandmaster.
As long as the evil spirits in the mountains are not stupid, they will not seek death and delay his search for someone.
Soon, Lai Yang discovered that there was a strange aura in the monster's body.
That strange breath was filled with negative emotions such as cruelty, violence, and evil, like a collection of evil thoughts.
The reason why this monster attacked him mindlessly and sought death must be because it was influenced by it.
Lai Yang couldn't help but frown, trying to use the power of Qi and blood to dispel the strange aura.
However, Lai Yang gave up after a while. He found that he could not drive it away. It seemed as if it had merged into the flesh and blood of the monster and became a part of it.
At this moment, Lai Yang finally understood why those people outside didn't dare to step in here.
With this tricky and evil thing around, one could easily get caught if one is not careful.
Once you get infected, your temperament may change drastically at best, or you may become a cruel and murderous puppet at worst. It is really too dangerous.
Fortunately, Lai Yang's qi and blood power can block these strange auras. As long as he remains vigilant, he will not be taken advantage of by these things.
Lai Yang didn't dare to bet that the defense points added by the system could be immune to poisons, but whether it could be immune to these strange things.
After all, I heard from those people outside that these strange auras are poisonous, but more like a curse or something like that.
Lai Yang continued to go deeper.
He came to the locust tree forest where Lord Mo and others were. Soon he saw the corpse lying on the ground and was immediately shocked.
Lai Yang stepped forward vigilantly to check the situation.
Lai Yang saw that they were wearing silver armor and guessed that these people were the Silver Armored Army who had escaped with Lord Mo, and they were all dead.
And judging from the way they looked before they died, it seemed that they died in a fight with each other. Could it be that they were affected by the strange aura?
They all died here, what about Lord Mo?
Lai Yang searched the area carefully.
It didn't take long for Lai Yang to find Lord Mo under a tree. He walked forward and reached out, feeling relieved.
The person is still alive, has a pulse and breathes.
He must be taken away from here as soon as possible.
