Chapter 73: An ordinary person whose life span is no more than a hundred years!
These twenty or so wandering cultivators were originally looking for opportunities in a ruin not far away.
But when they just came out of the cave, they felt the evil spirit rising into the sky.
They looked towards the area covered with thunderclouds, and they didn't expect that there were snakes undergoing tribulation.
Moreover, the other party had just passed the tribulation and caused such a strange phenomenon in the heaven and earth, which shows that this snake is gifted and even has the appearance of reversion to its ancestors.
The independent cultivators are used to living on the edge of a knife.
Faced with this anaconda that was undergoing a tribulation, even though they knew that it was very powerful, they still had to give it a try!
After all, every part of the boa constrictor is a treasure!
If you wait any longer and someone else notices you, the anaconda may not be yours anymore.
So they decided to go hunt the anaconda together, kill it, and divide the spoils equally among themselves.
But what they didn't expect was.
Before he reached the lake, an old man stood in his way.
"Is there anything wrong, old man?"
A casual cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage named Guo Xiudan stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Xiao Mo.
Guo Xiudan looked at the old man.
He did not feel the flow of spiritual power in the other person's body. In comparison, what he felt was the rich aura of mountains and rivers.
"This is an official from Qi State, and his position is not low."
Guo Xiudan made such a judgment.
He just didn't understand what this official from Qi meant.
Why did they target us for no reason?
Xiao Mo bowed to them and said, "The snake that walked on the river is an important person to me. I wonder if you can show some mercy?"
A cultivator named Chen Ji smiled and said, "Old sir, as a high-ranking official of Qi State, you are pleading for a snake clan member. This is not in line with the rules of your Qi State, right?"
Another monk said, "When it causes a flood, won't the people of Qi suffer terribly? We are here to help Qi."
"She is a kind-hearted person. She will definitely control herself when she crosses the river. Besides, there are various water conservancy projects along the river that will be sufficient for her. Moreover, I have already notified all the counties and prefectures to prepare in advance."
Xiao Mo explained patiently.
"So this time, I won't bother you guys with any help."
Guo Xiudan frowned and stopped being polite to the old man:
"Old sir, you also know that we independent cultivators are different from those cultivators from large sects. Everything we have is earned with our lives. This time, the anaconda crossing the river is a great opportunity for us. How can we let it go?
We are afraid we cannot agree to your request, old sir, so please make way."
"I'm afraid I won't give in." Xiao Mo shook his head.
Guo Xiudan frowned: "Old man, do you think you can stop us?"
Xiao Mo sighed softly: "Let's give it a try."
And just as Xiao Mo finished speaking, Guo Xiudan pulled the longbow, and golden arrow feathers condensed on the bowstring.
Guo Xiudan loosened her fingers, the bowstring rang, and a cold light went straight to Xiao Mo's heart!
The whole movement was as fast as a flash of lightning, taking only half a breath.
However, just when the tip of the arrow was only an inch away from Xiao Mo's chest, it suddenly stopped, as if it had hit an invisible barrier and stopped in mid-air.
Xiao Mo flicked his sleeves lightly, and the arrow was swept down like a candle in the wind. In an instant, it turned into specks of spiritual light and disappeared without a trace.
"Please leave, everyone." Xiao Mo said slowly.
"Just a mere mortal!" Guo Xiudan completely revealed her contempt for mortals.
So what if the other party is blessed with the luck of mountains and rivers?
After all, he is just an ordinary mortal with a lifespan of no more than a hundred years!
Guo Xiudan drew the bow again, and layers of light suddenly burst out in the void behind him!
Countless golden arrows emerged from the halo, ready to be launched.
The moment the bowstring sounded, hundreds of brilliant golden rainbows tore through the air and slammed towards Xiao Mo like a meteor rain.
At the same time, the surrounding cultivators also suddenly attacked.
In an instant, raging flames, sharp ice blades, poisonous miasma and dark thunder...
Various colored spiritual lights, carrying a destructive aura, fell down like an overwhelming force.
No temptation, no room for maneuver.
This is how all independent cultivators act.
Even if you look down on the other person in your heart, you will still use all your strength like a lion fighting a rabbit.
"Why bother?"
Xiao Mo sighed lightly and stepped forward on his toes.
In an instant, the inky aura of mountains and rivers emanated from the soles of his shoes, spreading like ripples, and then converging madly like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea!
But in the blink of an eye, a long ink-black dragon formed by the pure energy of mountains and rivers has coiled around his body, with scales and claws, and looks lifelike.
As soon as the black dragon took shape, it raised its head and glared at the attacking people, letting out a sky-shaking dragon roar!
After half a cup of tea.
Among the more than twenty independent cultivators, only Guo Xiudan was left.
He was badly injured and his tattered clothes were covered in blood.
At this time, Guo Xiudan was pierced through the chest by the dark dragon's claws and was suspended in the air.
"How is that possible?"
Guo Xiudan lowered her head and looked at her pierced chest, her eyes full of disbelief.
He never imagined that this old guy had such a strong fortune from the mountains and rivers, and even had the blessing of the human race.
But it was too late for him to regret.
Xiao Mo stretched out his hand and touched his forehead.
A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage instantly exploded into a bloody mist.
"Cough cough cough"
After dealing with twenty wandering cultivators, Xiao Mo coughed a few times, a little blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his face looked even older.
The luck of the mountains and rivers that he had just consumed when casting the spell returned to heaven and earth and could not be replenished in a short time.
This is officialdom.
Officials can consume all the accumulated luck of the mountains and rivers within a day.
However, full recovery may take months or even years.
"The remaining luck of the mountains and rivers should be enough."
Xiao Mo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took a deep breath.
“Boom!”
“Clatter!”
The thunder in the sky became louder and the rain became heavier, like a downpour.
Xiao Mo looked in the direction of Gan Yuebo.
Ruxue had already swam out of Ganyue Lake and was swimming downstream along a stream towards Siming Lake.
When Bai Ruxue left Ganyuebo, she felt that she seemed to have become thicker and longer, and even her spiritual power became more powerful. The scales on her body seemed to be transforming.
But Bai Ruxue didn't care about these.
She just wanted to swim forward as hard as she could, quickly swim into the North Sea, overcome the tribulation and obtain the Dragon Thunder Liquid.
As long as he gets the Dragon Thunder Liquid, Xiao Mo will not leave him.
Just when Bai Ruxue swam to the second half of the stream, she saw an arch bridge.
Under the arch bridge hangs a bronze sword.
Bai Rushue concentrated her mind.
Xiao Mo said that this is the Dragon Slaying Sword!
As Bai Rushue got closer, the Dragon Slaying Sword shook more and more violently, as if it was about to break free from the hemp rope and stab towards Bai Rushue at any time.
On this dragon-slaying sword, Bai Ruxue felt the blood of her fellow clansmen.
It was as if the remaining souls of his own kind were constantly warning him not to get close.
That feeling of natural restraint made Bai Ruxue want to retreat, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
In the past, this woman who was afraid even of thunder might have backed off.
But in her mind, the phantom of a man emerged.
"Xiao Mo."
Bai Rushue calmed herself down and rushed towards the arch bridge.
"Zheng!"
The Dragon Slaying Sword seemed to wake up, broke free from the hemp rope, and slashed towards the white anaconda.
