Chapter 1338 Arriving at Suixu Mountain!
"I saved you because I need you to be a guide. I didn't expect you to be grateful to me." Liang Yan shook his head and did not agree with his statement.
"Well, even if you think so, you are my savior after all. Although I am in a wilderness, I also understand the principle of repaying kindness. But, I really don't want to He was rescued by a human race, so he was always avoiding this problem along the way."
Hongwu seemed a little angry, and the person he was angry with was actually himself.
“Do you have a grudge against the human race?”
"Of course there is a grudge!"
Hongwu's voice lowered and he said slowly: "We, the 'Fuling Tribe', are not born with strong fighting power. The reason why we can survive in such a dangerous wilderness like 'Flying Fish Fifteen Continents' The survival of this land depends entirely on our unique natal magical power."
"Every 'spirit-possessed' person whose time is approaching will take the initiative to find a magic weapon of good quality and sacrifice himself for it. attached spirit, The level of magic weapons after being possessed will be greatly improved. If you are lucky, there will be artifacts that are rare in thousands of years. Since our 'spirit-possessed tribe' settled here, it has been passed down for countless generations, and the treasures preserved in the tribe have been There are a lot of magic weapons and artifacts, and it is with the power of these magic weapons that our 'Spiritual Clan' has a firm foothold here."
Liang Yan couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.
In fact, Hong Wuduo didn't need to say anything, he could already guess what happened next. As the saying goes, "Everyone is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade." The spirit-possessed tribe is naturally weak, but they have the ability to create powerful artifacts. How? Maybe not cared about by outsiders.
Sure enough, I heard Hongwu continue to say: "We, the spirit-possessed tribe, are kind-hearted by nature. Some human monks once entered this place and received our warm hospitality. But we didn't know that it was that bastard who secretly discovered the ability of our 'spirit-possessed tribe'. , and spread the word about this matter, causing more and more human monks to enter the "Feiyu Fifteen Continents" with the purpose of searching for our "possessed spirits" "Among these invaders, the monks from Yongye City are the most numerous. Not only do they search for the artifacts, but they also capture our most talented people and threaten them with the lives of their loved ones. They enchant their own magic weapons.”
At this point, Hongwu’s voice became heavier and heavier, as if he didn’t want to look back on that past.
“The little old man had a daughter back then. She was captured by the human monks of Yongye City because of her excellent qualifications. They also threatened her mother’s life to make my daughter willingly work for their magic weapon. Possessed spirit. Later, her mother was too sad and died in Yongye City, leaving the little old man alone, like a lonely ghost."
After hearing Hongwu's words, Liang Yan couldn't help but fall silent.
Now, he can finally understand why Hongwu is so hostile to him!
When they first met, Hongwu was unwilling to ask for help even though he was already deep in the corpse poison swamp.
It turns out that the human monks once plundered the 'Spirit-possessed Tribe' and killed Hongwu's family, so the moment Hongwu saw him, he recalled his tragic past, so he could still What a good look on him.
Suddenly I felt that Hongwu's situation was somewhat similar to his own.
What were the faults of the residents of Huaiyuan Town back then? The same is the crime of "pregnant with a jade"!
If He Muqing hadn't taken the treasure and hid in the village, how could Yan Xiazi chase him to Huaiyuan Town? If it weren't for the fight between the two, how could all the residents of Huaiyuan Town die?
"Hongwu, I'm sorry for the past. Human monks are not all the same. Since ancient times, there have been greedy people and chivalrous people. Although Liang is not a chivalrous person, as long as he doesn't provoke me On your head, you can't do something like killing a whole family and taking away their treasures."
"Of course I know your point. As a human being. If you are like those bastards in Yongye City, I will not help you on this journey."
After hearing this, Liang Yan nodded and said, "Hongwu, you have it now. What are your plans?"
Hongwu was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I want to go with you to see the outside world."
"Come with me?"
"Yes."
Hongwu's voice was a bit self-deprecating: "The little old man is incompetent, has mediocre qualifications, and has not done anything at the end of his life. Especially, After the death of my wife and daughter, I was even more devastated. I wandered around Qinzhou for these years, living like a walking corpse. In the end, I was even abandoned by my tribe."
He said this and sighed slightly. After a pause, his voice suddenly became louder: "Although I'm traveling with you this time for only a few months, it's thrilling and exciting, and it makes me regain my passion. Since I'm going to die sooner or later, why not follow you out of the 'Flying Fish Ten'" Wuzhou', let's go and see the outside world, so there will be no regrets."
After hearing this, Liang Yan had a look of surprise on his face. He really didn't expect this to be the reason.
"So. You want to go with me to see the outside world?"
"That's right!"
"But now you don't even have a physical body, only a ray of soul is left. Do you want to travel with me?”
“Haha.” Hongwu chuckled. He said: "After we, the spirit-possessed people, use our natal magical powers, our souls can still survive for two years. After two years, our consciousness will gradually dissipate. By then, it will be the time for the little old man to die."
After hearing this, Liang Yan's face became solemn and he didn't know how to speak.
Sensing a hint of guilt in Liang Yan's heart, Hongwu laughed again and said, "You don't have to blame yourself. I was the one who voluntarily destroyed my body and seized the ship on the 'Shazhou'. Without you, the little old man would have died many times." , This also saves people from saying that I don’t repay kindness and I am petty! My end is approaching. Even if I don’t use my natal magical powers, my lifespan will only be twenty or thirty years at most. Instead of being here in a daze, I might as well go out with you and see the scenery outside!”
Listen! Liang Yan couldn't help but think of Hongwu's words. He smiled softly, shook his head and said:
"Everyone has his own ambitions. If I only had two years left to live, I would find a way to survive no matter what. I would never have this mentality like yours. Well, maybe I am superficial, since you want to leave with me Go, let’s go on the road together.”
“Thank you!”
Hongwu’s voice was filled with excitement, and then a red glow emerged from the deck, in mid-air. It gradually condensed into the shape of a little person.
This little man was short in stature, with a hunched back and a red nose. He looked like a miniature version of Hongwu. After he came out, he imitated the appearance of a human monk and bowed to Liang Yan, which looked a bit funny.
Liang Yan knew that this was Hongwu's soul. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly took out a black jar from the storage ring.
This jar is called the "Soul-nurturing Altar". It is the magic weapon he obtained from the opponent's storage ring when he killed the ancestor of Huangshi. It does not have much effect in itself, except for one thing. That is what can warm the injured soul.
In the eyes of Liang Yan at the time, this kind of magic weapon was as useless, because at that time he had already refined the immortal body of a heavenly dragon. Even if his soul and body were destroyed at the same time, as long as the dragon's blood was still there, he would be able to survive in a short time. He will be reborn within a certain period of time, so there is no need for this "soul-nurturing altar" at all.
After he returned to Wushuang City, he had been practicing in seclusion and had no time to trade these useless magic weapons. Unexpectedly, they would come in handy today.
"Hongwu, this is the soul-nurturing altar. It can warm and nourish the soul. If you stay in the altar temporarily, it can extend your life for at least three years."
"Is it so magical?"
Hongwu's face lit up after hearing this, and without any hesitation, his soul detached from the deck of the warship, turned into a red light, and instantly got into the soul-nurturing altar.
As soon as we entered, the jar buzzed, and Hongwu's voice came from inside: "It feels good! This jar can really warm the soul, thank you!"
"No need. Thank you, as long as you are satisfied That's fine." Liang Yan smiled slightly. He still felt a little guilty about Hongwu. During the "Shazhou" battle, if this man hadn't destroyed his body and snatched the boat for everyone to escape, I'm afraid he wouldn't have left so easily." Flying Fish Fifteen Continents”.
After Hongwu was settled, Liang Yan's mood gradually calmed down, and his eyes slowly turned to the west.
"The next step is Suixu Mountain"
Lao Jin's face showed a solemn look, and even Li Xiaosong, who had always been fooling around, did not make any jokes at this time.
“This ghost-handed scholar is very mysterious. I hope he can really help the stinky-faced monster break through the catastrophe, otherwise I, Li Xiaosong, will not be able to spare him!”
Li Xiaosong shook his paws and looked in the west direction like Liang Yan, with a hint of ferocity on his face.
Liang Yan smiled slightly and said calmly: "Actually, the moment I left the 'Flying Fish Fifteen Continents', I actually got a trace of 'celestial induction'. It seems that the ghost-hand scholar did not lie to me. The opportunity to break through the Tribulation Realm is here."
As soon as he said this, the expressions of Lao Jin and Li Xiaosong changed slightly.
"Is this true? Have you really gained a hint of 'celestial induction'? What have you seen?" Lao Jin asked excitedly.
“I can’t see clearly. I only know that along with the opportunity, there is also huge danger.”
"Then you are still so calm?" Lao Jin's eyes widened, as if it was difficult to understand.
"Anxiety can't change anything, it will only make you make wrong judgments."
Liang Yan smiled: "Even if there is a greater danger, I must go to Suixu Mountain. Unless I am content with the status quo for the rest of my life and stop learning the mysteries, how can I advance without taking risks?"
After listening to Liang Yan's reply? Answer, Lao Jin and Li Xiaosong looked at each other and said nothing more, but nodded and said: "Okay, since you have made such a big determination, Mr. Liang, then Xiaosong and I will try our best to help you. I wish you luck in martial arts." Changlong, can have the last laugh in this trip to Suixu Mountain.”
“Haha, thank you for your blessing.”
Liang Yan's face was calm, he raised his hand and patted the Taixu gourd on his waist, and said: "You all come in. Don't show up easily until the critical moment."
"Understood!"
Lao Jin and Li Xiaosong nodded at the same time, and then each turned into a ray of light and penetrated into the Taixu Gourd.
Liang Yan glanced around, without hesitation, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and turned into a gray escaping light and flew westward.
Suixu Mountain is located in the extreme west of Antarctic Fairy Continent. This place is close to the "Western Sea of Bitterness". Ever since the mountains were destroyed by the two sub-sage generals of Yongye City, few human monks have arrived here.
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, there is less than a month left before the time for discussing Taoism set by the ghost-hand scholar in the letter.
At noon that day, a gray ray of light pierced the sky and fell on the lifeless and desolate land.
The light dispersed, and the person revealed was Liang Yan, who had rushed all the way here.
After dozens of days of flight, hurrying and slowing all the way, he finally reached the end of the trip.
“Is this Suixu Mountain?”
Liang Yan raised his head and looked ahead. He saw large and small rocks floating in the sky in the distance. Some were huge and still maintained the original appearance of the mountain peaks, while others were broken into rubble and were wandering around.
"As expected, the Fuyu Mountain once lived up to its name, but now it is a 'shattered void'"
Liang Yan felt a little emotional, shook his head, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and flew into the distance My nearest mountain peak.
Although the Suixu Mountain range has been shattered, there are still hundreds of peaks floating in the air. The letter sent by the ghost-hand scholar only said that Taoism was discussed in Suixu Mountain, without specifying the details. Location.
Liang Yan is already used to this. This person is mysterious and mysterious. He did not state his address clearly in the letter. He may have ulterior motives.
He flew high into the sky and flew between the suspended peaks. At the same time, he released his spiritual consciousness to investigate the situation of each peak.
As we went deeper and deeper into the Suixu Mountains, strange and inexplicable evil spirits gradually appeared around us. Even with Liang Yan's cultivation, he felt a little bored in his chest.
“Is this the ‘reincarnation evil spirit’ that Ning Xia calls?”
Liang Yan looked around and said to himself.
Suixu Mountain is close to the Sea of Bitterness in the West. In the past, there was a barrier left by Qi Sichen, the previous Lord of Yongye City, which could block the 'reincarnation evil spirit' of the Sea of Bitterness. However, since the battle between the two Asia Saints, , the barrier has been broken, and the "reincarnation evil spirit" of the sea of suffering is no longer blocking it. The invasion of the evil spirit can be felt from such a distance.
Fortunately, this was not a real sea of suffering. The amount of "reincarnation evil energy" was limited. Liang Yan used the mental method of "Eight Parts of Evolution" to quickly suppress the discomfort in his body.
In this way, he carefully explored the Suixu Mountains for several hours. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and looked at a tall and majestic mountain peak directly in front of him.
This peak is different from other small peaks. It is a giant in the entire Suixu Mountains. The bottom is floating in the sky and the top is inserted into the clouds.
The reason why Liang Yan's attention was attracted was not only the majesty of the mountain, but more importantly, he felt the aura of other monks in the mountain.
These auras are very strong, and there are more than one!
"It should be here. It seems that there are many people who arrived before me!"
Liang Yan pondered for a moment, then controlled the escape light and flew into this huge building according to the direction he sensed. among the mountains.
Not long after, his escaping light fell on a cliff on the mountainside.
The terrain here is steep and the rocks are rugged. I don’t know who placed ten futons on this cliff. They all looked very ordinary and formed a circle around each other.
Of the ten futons, six people are already seated, and four seats are still vacant.
