Mo was silent for a while and then said: "You must also know that the Black Mountain Territory is different from the outside world. You cannot escape here, and there are many dangerous places. With all due respect, even you will have a hard time passing through some of these dangerous places. "
After hearing this, Liang Yan nodded slightly to express his approval.
In fact, this is what he is worried about. From his observations along the way, he found that the Black Mountain Region is by no means simple. If there is no guide who is familiar with the place to guide the way, it is very likely that the troops will be lost.
Taking a step back, even if the Bamboo Army can get through these dangerous areas, it will probably waste a lot of time and cause the mission to fail.
"You are one of the eight major divine tribes. You should know the shortcut from north to south, right?" Liang Yan asked.
"Of course there are shortcuts, but after Beiming invaded our place, they built city defenses at many must-pass places. If you want to enter the hinterland of Beiming through the Black Mountain Territory, there are several city gates that cannot be bypassed." Mo Huan Slowly.
After hearing this, Liang Yan's eyes flashed, and he said with a faint smile:
"Mo, you don't want to borrow a knife to kill someone, do you?"
Mo also laughed. : "It depends on what you think. I am not lying. Unless you are willing to go through the 'Soul Burying Ridge' and 'Wu Sheng' Gu' is a place that even our eight major protoss don't want to get close to, otherwise we would have to go all the way through."
At this point, he paused and then said: "But then again, you just kept saying If you say you are Beiming’s enemy, you won’t dare to take action against Beiming’s monks, right?”
"It seems that you want to verify my position." Liang Yan narrowed his eyes.
He did not answer immediately, but thought about it secretly.
The ultimate goal of this operation is to sneak into Beiming, meet up with Li Yile, and then find the source of the Luo River under the leadership of Li Yile, and use Shennong's secret medicine to destroy the Luo River.
The whole process must be as secretive as possible, and try not to make too much noise.
But this is only an ideal situation, not realistic. After all, we are in Beiming's territory, which is heavily defended and it is impossible not to fight once.
"Danyang Sheng is very cunning. He has been fighting in the Black Mountain Territory for a year. He should have some knowledge of the terrain here. The place where the city gates are located must be the only way to the North Ming Dragon Vein. There is no way to avoid it. . From this point of view, what this person just said is probably true, but It’s true that he wants to use my hand to get rid of the Beiming cultivator. There is no conflict between the two.”
“The Black Mountain Region is dangerous and strange. Instead of marching randomly, it is better to take this person’s advice and give him a meal at the same time. A reassurance”
I thought of this , Liang Yan smiled slightly: "Mo, tell me, which road should we take next?"
"If you want stability, you can march towards the 'Lin-Yin Valley' in the southwest. After passing through the valley, take Pingyang Road. Although the city gates on this route are There are many, but the guards are not strong. It is just a long way and there are many dangerous places along the way, which will take a lot of time."
"Yes" Liang Yan nodded, "This is a request. Stable route, is there anything else? ”
"If you want to go faster, then march southeast, cross the 'Tianaxe Mountain', and take the Baiyun Road. The city gates along this route are heavily guarded, the generals' strength is unfathomable, and there are also mysterious and unpredictable formations blocking them."
When Mo said this, he glanced at Liang Yan and said with a smile: "This is a direct link to Beiming. If everything goes well, the route will only take one-third of the marching time. Of course, the danger is several times that of other routes. As for the choice, it is up to the fellow Taoist to decide."
"Understood. "
Liang Yan nodded slightly, his face was calm, and there was no hint of happiness or anger.
The field fell into silence for a while, and all the soldiers were waiting for his decision.
"Go southeast and take the Baiyun Road!"
After pondering for a moment, Liang Yan gave his answer.
Seeing that he had chosen the most dangerous path, Zhao Yi, Wang Chonghua, Hong Yun, Fu Kaishan and other generals not only showed no signs of worry, but instead showed smiles, looking eager to try.
"That's how it should be. Although we only have a hundred thousand people, we have many masters and countless capable people and strangers! As pointed by the front of our army, the city gates left by Beiming are like chickens and tiled dogs. Destroyed with one strike!" Zhao Yi laughed loudly.
“Don’t be careless!” Venerable Fuhu said with a serious face: “The reason why the commander-in-chief chose this route is just to speed up the march so that he can cooperate with the main force led by Leader Ning, but We must not underestimate the enemy, we must know that the arrogant army will be defeated!"
"I know, I know." Wang Chonghua patted Venerable Fuhu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "We are all experienced generals in the battlefield, how can we be careless and underestimate the enemy? But we have been suppressed by Beiming for too long before, and now If you have the chance, you should dampen their spirits!"
"Let's get on the road."
Liang Yan didn't say much and turned back to Luan Che.
Gui Wuqi was ordered to guard Mo. The two of them rode in a chariot and followed Liang Yan. The army set off again, marching toward the "Tianaxe Mountain" in the southeast.
Tianaxu Mountain is located in the northern part of the Black Mountain Territory. The mountain road is steep and the rocks are rugged. The rock on the top of the mountain is bulging and looks like a huge battle ax from a distance, hence the name.
There is a dark forest on both sides of the mountain. There are miasma, poisonous gas, and strange and inexplicable ancient restrictions in the forest. Even the eight gods who have been practicing here all year round dare not approach it rashly.
Therefore, if you want to cross Tianaxu Mountain, you must pass through the sub-river valley in the middle.
At the mouth of the valley, there is a majestic and tall city gate. This city gate stretches for tens of thousands of miles from east to west. It is made of black black stone. It looks like a dark giant beast, entrenched in the north-south direction. At!
There is a plaque hanging on the gate of the city wall with three golden characters: "Stepping on the Cloud Pass"!
This is one of the many city gates left behind by Beiming before it withdrew from the Black Mountain Territory. The general guarding the gate is named "Wei Zheng", with a nine-foot-high hideout and extraordinary prowess.
He was having a drink with a few people in his backyard at the time. During the dinner, birds were singing and dancing, and his sleeves were fluttering. Everyone was chatting happily, and they didn't seem to be preparing for war at all.
"General Wei, thank you for your hospitality. Your Ganquan wine is simply outstanding. I haven't enjoyed such delicious food for many years." An old man with white beard and hair said with a smile while tasting the wine. .
After Wei Zheng heard this, he burst out laughing:
"Fellow Taoist Bitter Bamboo is really good at joking. How can ordinary wine compare to your panacea? Let's do this, if next time If you are addicted to alcohol, how about I give you thirty kilograms of Ganquan wine in exchange for a 'Zhuan Ling Dan'?"
"Well, Wei Zheng, this wishful thinking is indeed a good one. Ring!”
On the other side of the banquet, a handsome man in white chuckled and said: "Fellow Kuzhu's 'Spiritual Transformation Pill' is hard to find. If you really exchanged it for thirty kilograms of ordinary wine, I'm afraid that before Those fellow Taoists who ask for elixirs will be so angry that they vomit blood?”
“Brother Xue Ju, you can’t say that” Wei Zheng was sipping wine. , and said with a smile: "Now we are all stationed in the Black Mountain Territory. Although we are not in the same city, we are all in the same spirit. We all had a great time chatting with each other today. How about doing a trade and exchanging information?"
"Oh?"
After hearing this, Ku Zhu and Xue Ju looked at each other and put down their wine glasses in unison.
Actually, their drunkenness is not about drinking. They come to Tayunguan for a small gathering today, and they do have their own purposes. Now that they have had three rounds of drinking, it is time to get down to business.
"Since it is General Wei who has spoken, how dare Xue refuse to obey? I wonder what the general wants in exchange for it?" Xue Ju laughed.
Wei Zheng did not speak, put down his wine glass and clapped his hands. The female cultivator who was still dancing in the courtyard immediately stopped, bowed to the three of them, and then slowly exited the backyard. Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and cast another magic spell, setting up several layers of restrictions outside the hospital, and then Youyou said: "Let's open the skylight and tell the truth. You two came to me not just for a drink? There are only three of us here, If you have any treasures in your hands, don't hide them. Take them out quickly and let's see if we can trade them. . ”
“General Wei is really quick to talk. In that case, I’ll let you do it first.”
Kuzhu smiled slightly and took out a white jade from the storage ring. Small box, gently push the lid open a small slit, and immediately the rich fragrance of red pepper fills the air.
"Sure enough, it's the Spirit Transformation Pill!"
Wei Zheng's eyes showed a trace of fiery color, but he quickly covered it up.
Kuzhu shook his head and said with a smile: "Take a closer look, you two."
While speaking, he pushed the lid of the box open a lot, and the other two people took a closer look. I found a thumb-sized white pill lying in the jade box with nine golden lines on it.
“Nine Marks Transformation Pill!”
Even with Wei Zheng's determination, the moment he saw the elixir, his heartbeat accelerated and his breath became slightly confused.
The Spirit Transformation Pill is a pill used by monks in the Transformation Tribulation Realm. Its function is to purify and transform the spiritual power in one's body so that the spiritual power matches the power of the laws learned.
This elixir is most suitable for monks who practice the power of a single law, and can help them increase the power of their spells.
After all, no matter how deep a person's power of law is, it must be exerted through mysterious spells, otherwise he will be like a reckless man who has no brute force but doesn't know how to use it. The Transforming Pill is precisely through purification and Transforming spiritual power enables monks to better utilize the power of law.
Such a precious elixir is naturally hard to find, and the Spirit Transformation Pill is also divided into grades. According to the number of pill patterns, it is divided into grades one to nine. Among them, the Nine Marks Transformation Spirit Pill has the best effect. It is extremely precious and can be said to be a marketable and priceless existence.
It's no wonder that Wei Zheng is so out of character. The power of the single law he cultivated has recently reached a bottleneck. He has a premonition of impending disaster and is eager to improve his strength, so he desperately hopes to get a spiritual transformation pill.
What kind of cultivation is Kuzhu? She could see his thoughts at a glance, smiled and said nothing, and instead looked at the other person.
"Fellow Daoist Xue, can I exchange this elixir for you?"
As soon as he said this, Wei Zheng's face immediately became gloomy.
Xue Ju was a little surprised. He glanced at Kuzhu and asked, "What do you want to exchange for me?"
"Ten Thousand Demon Banners!"
Bang!
There was a loud noise, but Xue Ju smashed the wine table in front of him with his palm, stood up and shouted: "Kuzhu, are you crazy? Do you know what you are talking about?"
< br>It’s no wonder that his reaction was so intense, the “Ten Thousand Demon Banners” really had a great origin.
Tiangong City is very powerful. In addition to the city lord himself, there are also the four great sage kings in the southeast, northwest and northwest, all of whom have attained the Holy Realm.
Among them, the Northern Demon Saint Lord is not a human being, but a demon cultivator. He has three direct disciples, and the third one is Xue Ju.
Because Xue Ju has excellent qualifications and is deeply loved by the Demon Saint King, he gave him this magic weapon "Ten Thousand Demon Banners". Although it was the magic weapon he used before becoming a saint, its power is also amazing.
"Kuzhu, you are so brave! The Ten Thousand Monster Flag is a magic weapon given by my master, you dare to spy on it!"
"Fellow Taoist, calm down."
< br>Kuzhu didn’t fall out with him either. He chuckled and said: "How could I not know that this Ten Thousand Demon Banner is a thing of the Demon Saint, how could I dare to take it as my own? I just want to borrow your Ten Thousand Demon Banner for one use, and return it to the original after use. As for this Nine Pattern Turn The elixir is still yours.”
"Borrowing?"
Xue Ju was a little surprised, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, but his anger gradually calmed down.
He sat down again, pointed his hand, and the broken table in front of him returned to its original shape.
"So, you want to use this Nine Marks Transformation Pill to exchange for a chance to use the Ten Thousand Demon Banners?"
"Exactly!" Kuzhu nodded.
"Haha."
Xue Ju laughed and said lightly: "I never leave the Ten Thousand Monster Banner. Fellow Taoist Kuzhu wants to exchange it for the Spirit Transformation Pill. Isn't it a bit fanciful? You know, this Pills are precious to some people, but they are worthless to me. Xue is a demon cultivator, and he is the same. I have cultivated the power of two laws at that time, and this Spirit Transformation Pill can only transform one kind, so it is useless to me.”
“The Spirit Transformation Pill is useless to you, so what about the ‘Fire Fire Divine Needle’?” >
Hearty laughter came from the side, but Wei Zheng, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke.
After hearing this, Xue Ju's eyes flashed slightly, turned to Wei Zheng, and asked with a smile: "What does General Wei mean?"
Wei Zheng laughed: "Why do you need to hide it, Fellow Daoist Xue? You have traveled thousands of miles to come to me. Do you have any other purpose? It's probably because something went wrong while practicing, and you need Wei's 'Fire God Needle' to heal it, right?" "
"It seems that General Wei is really well informed." Xue Ju narrowed his eyes slightly, indicating something.
Wei Zheng's smile remained unchanged: "Fellow Taoist, I misunderstood, how could I inquire about your information for no reason? It's just that most of the people who come to me come to ask for the 'Fire God Needle', Kuzhu No, you must be, right?”
“Hmph!”
Xue Ju snorted and did not speak, but he did not express any objection.
Wei Zheng said again: "Well, Wei is also the host after all. Today, I will set up a game. The three of us will exchange with each other: Kuzhu's Nine Patterns Transforming Spiritual Pill belongs to me, and my 'Fire Fire Divine Needle' belongs to me." Fellow Daoist Xue, arrived Let’s borrow Taoist friend Ku Zhu’s ‘Ten Thousand Demon Banners’ to use once.”
After hearing this suggestion, Ku Zhu nodded and smiled, but Xue Ju frowned slightly, looking a little hesitant.
"I have a question."
After pondering for a moment, Xue Ju looked at Kuzhu attentively, and slowly said: "The Ten Thousand Demon Banners need demon power to activate them to exert their maximum power. , you are a human monk, what do you do with the Ten Thousand Demon Banners?”
