Chapter 48: Chaos is coming, but purity is hard to find
“Brother Wang, have you heard? There is a treasure in Jie County!”
“What?! How can a place like Jie County be possible? Will there be treasures?”
“Jie County is next to Qingping Mountain. How can there be no treasures in the mountains?”
“Yes, I heard that Mr. Chen Ping from Yu County has already come. I met my friend and wanted to explore Qingping Mountain.”
"It's not just that, everyone! The county said that Zhao Hong, the eldest elder of the Zhao family of the Zi Mansion, personally took action, and he also brought two experts from the clan who are in the middle stage of foundation building!"
"."
Various rumors and rumors are circulating in Hai County.
Everyone has a strong curiosity about what treasures there are in Jie County.
All this was something Lin Zhiyong and Wu Fang did not expect.
Their original intention was to invite a few experts to eliminate the demons, but unexpectedly they attracted so many monks!
In just a few days, dozens of monks in the Qi training period came to Jie County.
In the following days, several monks from the foundation building stage appeared.
Chen Ping from Yu County brought his friends and moved into the county government office as soon as they arrived. According to several far-sighted people, Chen Ping invited Han, a famous casual cultivator from Hai County. Dao Ningkang and Ben Lei grenade shock.
Subsequently, another swordsman wearing a hat and white clothes also came to Jie County. He was recognized as a lone knight, Gongsun Yulong, a swordsman in white clothes and jade sword.
And just one day later, Zhao Hong, the eldest elder of the Zhao family of Zi Mansion, came with two clan foundation builders.
The identities of the two people were also recognized as Zhao Jun and Zhao Rui, who were well-known in the younger generation of the Zhao family.
There are currently seven foundations in Jie County alone.
Lin Zhiyong never thought that so many foundation-building monks would come from his small border county. He had been careful these past few days, for fear of making any mistakes.
Wu Fang also worked hard. He had to deal with the questions from these foundation-building seniors every day, which made him, a local leader in the county, once again realize the difficulty of the low-level monks.
Seeing that people from the Zhao family were here, Chen Ping discussed it with her two friends, and the three of them decided to go up the mountain to investigate tomorrow.
And Zhao Hong also felt that there were too many people in Jie County at the moment, so it was best to leave as early as possible to avoid trouble.
So the next morning, the people of Jie County watched the foundation-building monks take off towards Qingping Mountain.
Seeing that the foundation-building monks had begun to take action, the Qi-training cultivators gathered in Jie County quickly followed suit, trying to get some trouble behind.
With so many monks marching up the mountain, the creatures in the mountain sensed the danger and began to hide.
Bai Shang, who was practicing in the outer cave, sensed these anomalies. He did not alert Jiang Sheng rashly, but went out to investigate the situation first.
But Bai Shang didn’t expect that not long after it left the cave, it would be targeted.
The ones eyeing Bai Shang are Chen Ping, Ning Kang and Lei Zhen.
Based on the intelligence analysis they received from Wu Fang and the description of Qingping Mountain by the locals in Jie County, they determined the approximate location of the Black Fire Snake. Then they searched all the way and found Bai Shang's trace.
"It's a white fox in the early stage of foundation building. It's strange that there are white foxes in this mountain." Ning Kang was obviously very interested in Bai Shang's appearance.
Chen Ping analyzed: "According to the mortals here in Jie County, there are two fox fairies, white and green, in the mountain. The white fox fairy should be talking about the one in front of me."
"Fellow Daoist Chen, it seems that your The judgment is correct. There are many green foxes and red foxes in the mountains. This white fox obviously should not appear in the mountains. Could it be related to the treasure?" Lei Zhen became more excited as he talked.
"We don't rule out this possibility. We'll catch the white fox first." After Chen Ping finished speaking, the three of them quietly dispersed and prepared to take action.
Bai Shang, who was investigating in the forest, suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.
For these mountain creatures, the warning of danger can be said to be an instinct hidden in their bones.
Realizing something was wrong, Bai Shang immediately used his demon power to retreat.
Boom boom boom boom!
A series of fireballs came down, destroying the originally lush mountain forest.
Bai Shang ran very fast, and the demonic power wrapped around Bai Shang's body, leading him to dodge from the fireballs.
However, several more ice picks suddenly rained down from ahead, forcing Bai Shang to stop and run away in another direction.
Fireballs and ice picks came all the way, making Bai Shang tired of dealing with them.
This is just an action by Chen Ping and Ning Kang. Lei Zhen has been coordinating to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to snatch it.
“Damn, why are there suddenly so many human monks in the mountains?”
Bai Shang was extremely anxious. Facing these foundation-building monks who were higher than him, Bai Shang knew that There is no chance of winning.
“Fellow Taoists, I have no enmity with you in the past and have no enmity in recent times. Why did you attack me?”
Bai Shang attempted to communicate peacefully with Chen Ping and others who were chasing him behind him.
“Of course we are not here for fellow Taoist, but for the Black Fire Snake.”
“If fellow daoist can trust me, you might as well stop and let’s have a good talk. ”
Chen Ping’s shouting did not make Bai Shang stop, but made Bai Shang run faster.
You came here for the Black Fire Snake, why don’t you stop and have a nice talk?
Bai Shang is not a fool. If he stops, he will be left to his own devices.
Seeing Bai Shang's lack of reaction, Chen Ping became even more convinced that there was indeed a treasure here. Maybe that treasure was now occupied by the Black Fire Snake! There can only be one overlord in a mountain. If the Black Fire Snake allows the white fox to appear here, then the white fox must be a subordinate of the Black Fire Snake.
"Fellow Daoist Ning and Fellow Daoist Lei, take action together to stop this white fox. It must know the situation of the black fire snake!"
Chen Ping decisively transmitted the message , Ning Kang and Lei Zhen also cooperated in taking action.
Fireballs, ice picks, and thunderballs were seen attacking Bai Shang from three directions.
Feeling the sense of crisis coming from behind, Bai Shang suddenly turned his head and sprayed out a cloud of snow, and then accelerated his escape.
It took less than a moment for the wind and snow to be blown away by the fireball, and then ice picks and thunderballs fell one after another, leaving shocking traces in the forest.
Zhao Hong, Zhao Rui and Zhao Jun, who were searching in another direction, also sensed the fluctuations of Chen Ping and others' actions.
"Chen Ping and the others took action. They must have discovered something. Go over and have a look!"
Zhao Hong said without hesitation, he turned around and chased in the direction of Chen Ping and others, with Zhao Rui and Zhao Jun following closely behind.
Bai Shang kept turning around in the forest. With his familiarity with this mountain forest, Chen Ping and others were always unable to succeed.
Chen Ping saw that it was difficult to capture Bai Shang alive with these methods, and said angrily: "Two fellow Taoists, don't hold back. The worst is to kill this evil beast and search for his soul!"
Ning Kang smiled and said: "It should have been like this a long time ago!"
Say, Ning Kang summoned a snow-patterned straight knife.
The name Han Dao Ningkang comes from this high-grade magical weapon, the Frost Frost Dao.
As Ning Kang activated his spiritual power, the frost knife turned into a streak of frost light and shadow and flew towards Bai Shang.
A fatal threat appeared in the back of his head. The frost knife was aimed at Bai Shang and was about to kill him with one blow.
However, just when Bai Shang felt that he could not pass this level, unexpectedly, with the sound of gold and iron, the frost knife flew out against Bai Shang's neck.
The smile on Ning Kang's face disappeared.
Using his spiritual power to recall the Frost Saber to his side, Ning Kang looked at Gongsun Yulong who suddenly appeared across from him, with an angry expression on his face: "Gongsun Yulong, you're a fool again!"
"Sorry, My hand slipped, I hope Fellow Daoist Ning won't mind." Gongsun Yulong said with a smile, and a small jade sword circled Gongsun Yulong.
It was this jade sword that knocked the frost knife away just now, allowing Bai Shang to save his life.
When Chen Ping and Lei Zhen saw Gongsun Yulong appear, they both became vigilant.
Do they know that the relationship between Gongsun Yulong and Ning Kang is not very good.
One of them is called Han Dao and the other is called Jade Sword. They seem to be the leaders of the younger generation of casual cultivators in Hai County.
But since ancient times, there has never been a tie for first place. Therefore, Gongsun Yulong and Ning Kang have always been fighting openly and secretly, trying to overpower each other.
The two have not been very happy over the years. Now that Ning Kang meets Gongsun Yulong, it is inevitable that there will be some twists and turns.
“This monster is what we like, Gongsun Yulong, do you want to fight with us?” Ning Kang looked at Gongsun Yulong with an unkind expression.
Gongsun Yulong, however, had a casual look on his face: "I don't care who the monster belongs to. But if it makes you uncomfortable, that's much more interesting to me."
"Seeking death!" Ning Kang took action boldly, and the frost knife drew a stream of light and flew towards Gongsun Yulong.
But Gongsun Yulong was not afraid at all, and urged the jade sword to meet Ning Kang's frost knife.
Bai Shang watched the two human monks start to fight, and quickly wanted to take this opportunity to escape back to the cave. But as soon as it took two steps, it desperately found that three more human monks were flying towards it. The leader was Even in the later stage of foundation building!
When Ning Kang and Gongsun Yulong noticed the arrival of the Zhao family, they also tacitly stopped.
Although they are bound to be divided, in front of the Zhao family of Zi Mansion, they, the casual cultivators, are still willing to stick together.
"I said why is this place so lively? It turns out we are all acquaintances."
Zhao Hong looked at these casual cultivators of Hai County's foundation building with a smile. He looked like a kind old man.
But whether it is Chen Ping, Lei Zhen, Ning Kang, or Gongsun Yulong, they are extremely wary of this great elder of the Zhao family of Zi Mansion, a powerful monk in the late stage of foundation building.
"It's really strange that there is a white fox in this mountain. I just saw several people fighting for the white fox. Could it be that the black fire snake is related to the white fox?" Zhao Hong looked at Bai Shang, his eyes full of inquiry. meaning.
Bai Shang has never been so desperate. Seven human races surrounded it, which gave it no way to survive.
Seeing that these human foundation builders were discussing how to divide it, Bai Shang quickly shouted: "Everyone, the Black Fire Snake has been eliminated by Director Jiang!"
Director Jiang!
The appearance of this name undoubtedly made everyone present extremely vigilant.
"The Chief Jiang you are talking about is the Chief Jiang Shengjiang who killed the Zifu River God before?" Zhao Hong asked.
Bai Shang nodded repeatedly: "That's right, the black fire snake has been eliminated by Director Jiang of Qingxuan Temple. There is nothing left in this mountain."
After hearing this, Ning Kang sneered and said: "You want to deceive us with your words? You are looking for death!"
As he spoke, Ning Kang activated the frost knife, clearly intending to kill Bai Shang in front of everyone.
Bai Shang watched in horror as the frost knife slashed towards him with the astonishing frosty aura. The next moment, the frost knife was knocked away by a galloping sword aura.
“I just want to be pure in the mountains for a while, why is it so difficult?”
