Thick miasma shrouded the sky and the earth, like a thick layer of white fog, isolating the barren mountain from the outside world.
The Kushan Mountains stretch endlessly across the center of the Far North for tens of thousands of years, yet no one knows what lies within. For once a cultivator enters, they never leave, and only death awaits them.
Xuan Lingzi walked between the two peaks with a calm expression and cold eyes.
He was very calm and indifferent, but there were a few traces of blood on his sleeves, which showed his not-so-good situation.
Since the day he was swallowed by the withered mountain, Xuan Lingzi had been walking through this mountain range for a full ten days. This place was empty and vast, a small world unto itself. Every time Xuan Lingzi sensed the edge of this world and tried to cross it, he was blocked by a strange force, unable to move forward.
Can he conquer everything with his own strength and forcefully break the barrier of the withered mountain?
Xuan Lingzi didn't try.
After entering the Kushan Mountains, he discovered that they were extremely unstable. If a major earthquake occurred, it would likely collapse again. He had to be extremely careful and cautious.
The white-robed venerable walked gracefully among the mountains. Suddenly, at a fork in the road, Xuan Lingzi stopped, turned his head, and stared in the other direction, his eyes blazing. The next moment, he suddenly teleported away, swiftly heading in that direction.
At this moment, outside the withered mountain, Luo Jianqing and Mo Qiu returned to the Fengshen Sea.
The two sat on a deserted island in the Fengshen Sea, staring at each other in bewilderment. Beside them sat a tall, thin man in a black cloak, his face obscured by the large cloak. He sat cross-legged in meditation, not restraining Luo Jianqing or the other, simply allowing them to stare at each other.
Luo Jianqing sent a voice message: "Mo Qiu, do you know this person?"
Mo Qiu also transmitted his message, "I've heard my master talk about him before. He should be Jinli, the Lord of the First Sea in the Demon Realm. He's in the late Mahayana stage, reaching the Great Perfection stage, and his strength is comparable to the Four Great Demon Lords. However, he's very solitary and rarely interacts with other Demon Lords. He often hides himself in a black cloak." After a pause, Mo Qiu asked, "Escape?"
Luo Jianqing frowned: "...the cultivation level of the late Mahayana Great Perfection? Can we escape?"
Mo Qiu curled his lips: "How do you know if you don't try it?"
Luo Jianqing was silent for a moment, then said, "We tried it before, but we couldn't do anything to stop it."
When this strange man in black suddenly appeared and captured Mo Qiu, Luo Jianqing naturally wanted to rescue him. Mo Qiu was about to attack him, but his palm was directly pierced by the other party's black demonic power, and before he could make a move, he was defeated.
As for Luo Jianqing, he barely managed to unleash a single "Lotus Blossoms Sword" move, mingled with the immense power of the Causal Seizure, but the black-clad man countered with a punch, neutralizing the attack. Then, the man simply tapped Luo Jianqing lightly, and he was instantly defeated, leading to the current scene.
He who knows the times is a hero.
Nowadays, if you want to resist or fight back, you have to be strategic.
The strength gap between the two sides is so huge. If Luo Jianqing still stubbornly resists, it would be extremely foolish.
Thinking of this, Luo Jianqing suddenly realized: "Wait, his strength is so high. Even though he didn't use the sound transmission stone to detect it, does he know that we are transmitting sound?"
Mo Qiu said as a matter of course: "Of course, he knows we are transmitting messages."
Luo Jianqing: "..."
Mo Qiu said, "From what I know about Jin Li, he's always been aloof and eccentric. Since he didn't even use the Immortal Binding Rope to tie us up, he's naturally not afraid of us escaping. He won't interfere with our voice transmission because he probably doesn't take us seriously. But Luo Jianqing, he has a fatal weakness that we can exploit."
Luo Jianqing frowned slightly: "What's the key?"
"A thousand years ago, your great-grandmaster and my...master, worked together to lock Jin Li into a small world. They changed the flow of time, allowing Jin Li to survive alone in darkness for 180 million years." Mo Qiu's red lips curled up: "From then on, Jin Li was afraid of the night!"
On the deserted island, two peerless geniuses of the human race and the top powerful man of the demon race sat silently, waiting for the night to leave.
Jin Li did not stop Luo Jianqing and Mo Qiu from sitting cross-legged in meditation to recover their breath. Even when Luo Jianqing tentatively took out the last Hundred Flowers Pill and asked Mo Qiu to eat it, Jin Li did not say a word.
After taking the Hundred Flowers Pill, the horrible and cruel blood hole in Mo Qiu's palm slowly healed.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth rushed into Luo Jianqing and Mo Qiu's bodies frantically, and those ferocious罡风 also rushed towards them, but as long as they resisted the attack of the罡风, the power of the罡风 that entered their bodies would become huge spiritual power, nourishing their bodies.
Before dawn, the two men recovered their strength.
However, at this moment, neither of them took any action, and it seemed that they really had no plans to escape.
Luo Jianqing was waiting for his chance. His eyes gently swept over the demon lord wearing a black cloak beside him. Suddenly, he heard Mo Qiu's voice echoing in his mind: "Luo Jianqing, there is something you must know."
Luo Jianqing turned around in surprise and looked at Mo Qiu.
In the deep night, the gorgeous red-clad demon stared intently at him. The vast, boundless Fengshen Sea churned with black waves in the darkness, crashing into snow-white splashes behind Mo Qiu. The blackness made Mo Qiu's fair complexion even more beautiful, a breathtaking beauty.
Luo Jianqing's heart sank, and for some reason, he felt uncomfortable.
