Chapter 40 I'm waiting for you here
"I... am afraid that the light of the domain-breaking talisman can't cover you..."
"Just bear with me for a moment."
Li Mengning seemed afraid that Jiang Lan would misunderstand her, so she explained in a low voice.
“…”
Jiang Lan glanced at her, then hugged her waist directly. Her waist was soft and slender, too soft to be held in one hand.
The tip of the nose seemed to have crashed into a sea of clear, faint and fragrant flowers.
"It smells so good..." He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Li Mengning's flawless, white and slender neck, which was as white as snow, suddenly turned rouge, as if it were a piece of fine jade stained with scarlet.
She bit her red lips gently, then put her arms around Jiang Lan.
The clear light of the Domain-Breaking Talisman flashed and enveloped the two of them.
The void in front of them became blurry, and a dark and deep passage seemed to appear, and the figures of the two people disappeared.
"Do you really know where the Bloody Plateau is?"
The next moment, the two of them appeared on a lonely, steep and cold mountain. The sky and the earth were all white, and the land was covered with snow.
Jiang Lan deeply doubted whether this guy knew the way.
"I...I'll look for it again..." Li Mengning said in a low voice, her tone clearly lacking in confidence.
"Are the domain-breaking talismans enough?" Jiang Lan asked.
"It should... it should be enough..."
“…”
If I had known this guy was so unreliable, I shouldn't have trusted her so much.
Now Jiang Lan suddenly felt a little regretful. He was too rash.
Fortunately, Li Mengning did not disappoint him too much. After she realized that she didn't know where the Bloody Plateau was, she went to the nearby town to ask, bought a map, and then carefully drew the route with a pen.
After getting the map, the two of them spent another half a day and finally reached the border area of the Bloody Plateau.
The air was filled with a dry, slightly bloody smell, and wisps of miasma were spreading.
From afar, the place was filled with blood-red mist, gloomy and dark, with large tracts of reddish-brown scorched earth, barren mountains, dried-up lakes, undulating hills, and towering mountains one after another could be seen in the depths.
From time to time, one can see streams of divine rainbows flying from other places and landing on the blood-red plateau ahead.
Jiang Lan recalled the plot in his mind.
After the remains of the Blood Immortal Sect are unearthed, they will attract a large number of aristocratic families and sects to scramble for them, leading to bloody conflicts and heavy casualties.
At the same time, it will cause the Blood Immortal Sect's former protective formation to revive, with blood-red light covering 30,000 miles. All the monks who went to fight for the opportunity will be destroyed, and almost no one will survive.
But that was actually a conspiracy by the remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult, in order to gather enough vitality to open the ancestral temple.
However, when the remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult opened the ancestral temple, they found that it was already empty and the Blood Immortal Cult's heritage was not in the ancestral temple at all.
"The inheritance of the Blood Immortal Sect is actually in the tomb complex where the corpse of the previous generation of Blood Immortal ancestors was buried after their death."
"According to the plot, it will be accidentally found by a guy named Ye Ming..."
Jiang Lan looked around and saw that the Bloody Plateau covered a large area. There were dozens of known tombs alone, not including some unknown tombs that had not been unearthed.
I don't know how long it would take if I searched for them one by one.
However, since he chose to intercept in advance, he must be confident. After all, the Blood Immortal Patriarch was an unrivaled figure who dominated the Nine Provinces during his lifetime. Even after his death, his corpse would definitely be extraordinary.
The bodies buried with him were definitely not ordinary people when they were alive.
"There must be powerful monsters and demons around the tombs where the Blood Immortal Ancestor is buried. It is easy to confirm if we follow the clues..."
Jiang Lan looked down at a colorful venomous snake spitting out its tongue between the rock walls nearby.
As his mind moved slightly, strands of life force were withdrawn and disappeared, and the poisonous snake instantly disintegrated and dissipated, turning into ashes.
All of the poisonous snake's memories, experiences, and talents were instantly taken away and devoured by him.
Jiang Lan even felt that he had gained some resistance to toxicity.
"It turns out that all creatures living here have a natural fear of a certain area..."
Afterwards, Li Mengning naturally became his current "means of transportation".
The two of them turned into a beam of divine light and flew away.
She leaned against someone, her long black hair fluttering in the wind, and her flawless face beneath the veil showed no emotion.
Those eyes, like glass with a clear and cold feeling, only revealed a hint of worry when they swept across certain areas of the bloody plateau.
Those places are inhabited by powerful monsters and are very dangerous.
If Jiang Lan went, he would be eaten till not even a bone was left...
Soon, the heat and bloody smell in the air became thicker and thicker, and the sky became darker.
The mountains on both sides are steep and rugged, with almost no vegetation, and the reddish-brown land is full of a burning smell.
The two walked in a huge rift that looked like a scar in the sky, with only a thin line between heaven and earth visible.
One can even see blood-colored mist gushing out from some rock walls. If ordinary cultivators do not have anti-poison pills, they will probably not survive more than half a day here before being poisoned to death.
Li Mengning had a lot of treasures on her, including things like anti-poison beads. Moreover, with her cultivation level, she was not afraid of the blood mist.
Jiang Lan could clearly feel that the blood-colored mist contained a strong breath of life.
In other words, he can actually control and swallow the blood-colored mist.
For ordinary people, the blood-colored mist that they would avoid is a great tonic for him.
"This place is really a good place."
As they went deeper into the Blood Plateau, Jiang Lan could clearly feel that the blood fog was getting thicker and thicker, and more and more monsters appeared.
However, it couldn't even withstand a single sword strike from Li Mengning and was cut in half.
"She was at the fourth level of the Shining Nether Realm many years ago, and she will be even stronger now. Unless she encounters a demon beast at the demon king level, no one can stop her."
"I remember that in this bloody plateau, there is a red Yin pond, in which there seems to be a thousand-year-old Nine Yin Flesh Lotus that is about to mature, guarded by a demon python with the strength of a demon king."
"It's a pity that it's of no use to me now, but for Li Mengning who is practicing the Supreme Mysterious Art, it is a rare treasure that can increase her cultivation..."
"Jiang Lan..."
Jiang Lan was thinking when he suddenly heard a soft voice in his ears.
He looked back and raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"
"It's very dangerous ahead, don't go." Li Mengning whispered.
She stood behind Jiang Lan, wearing a plain green veil, her hair in a bun like clouds, a few strands of black hair hanging down by her crystal clear ears, which she gently tucked behind her ears.
"Whatever you need, I'll bring it back to you." Seeing Jiang Lan's confusion, she explained.
Jiang Lan shook his head and said, "No need."
"You... don't be so stubborn. I feel a strong aura ahead. You won't be in any danger if you stay here." Li Mengning's glass-like eyes were almost fixed on his face, and she said very seriously.
"Can't even you deal with it?" Jiang Lan asked.
Li Mengning hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I can handle it, but... I'm afraid I can't protect you."
Jiang Lan smiled in his heart. In Li Mengning's eyes, he was actually no different from a burden.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here."
"There should be a Chiyin Pond ahead, with a Nine Yin Flesh Lotus that is about to mature inside, but it is guarded by a two-headed evil python. Please help me pick it back." Jiang Lan said.
