Never has running away been so tiring!
Among the seven people, except for Yin Luoyao and Cheng Ling, the other five felt that they could no longer hold on after running for two consecutive hours. There was an inexplicable feeling of blockage in my chest, and my breathing became louder and louder.
The steps slowed down almost at a speed visible to the naked eye. The unbearable pain and fatigue made people just want to lie on the ground and not want to move any more. But the monsters and monsters chasing behind him are still continuing, and if he hesitates even a little bit, he will be overwhelmed by them.
Cheng Ling's physical strength was tyrannical, and his trip to the Black Demon Abyss allowed him to upgrade his physical strength to the late stage of the fourth-level spiritual body. After all, Yin Luoyao is a monk in the Immortal Lord stage. Every time a monk advances to a higher level, his physique will also strengthen accordingly. The body in the Immortal Lord stage happens to be equivalent to a fourth-level spiritual body.
She was also curious about Cheng Ling's physical strength, which was even higher than that of Chu Yulu, who was even better in cultivation. As for Jin Yanrong and Lu Xueqing, they were both exhausted and almost out of breath. They were pulled by Chu Yulu and Wu Tianfeng respectively, and they could barely keep up with the large army.
"You..., slow down the pace a little..., breathe evenly..., take a deep breath..., exhale... , breathe out...! Let your breathing follow your footsteps..., don't stop breathing, don't disrupt the rhythm of breathing..., this is the only way to ensure that you can continue running Way down!”
Cheng Ling was also very tired! How many years have you experienced this kind of running that relies purely on physical strength? Even I feel the pain, let alone others. They have lived in the favorable environment of the fairy world since they were young, and they will never have the experience of running wild like this.
Now it's like an immortal being banished to the mortal world, how can I bear it? Fortunately, he had experience in his previous life and was familiar with the basics of long-distance running. Sure enough, the other people followed his instructions, slowed down their pace, and coordinated their breathing and footsteps as much as possible. The pain in their chests seemed to be reduced a lot, and they could continue to carry on.
But this persistence was not enough to escape the immediate crisis. The monsters and monsters chasing behind them were much stronger than them, and their speed did not slow down at all. The two sides were nearly one-third closer from the original two kilometers.
"This is not the way to go... Junior Brother Cheng, we will be caught up sooner or later... Whoops!"
"Hold on a little longer... See, there seems to be an old castle ahead!"
...
"There really is an ancient castle..." Wu Tianfeng, who was out of breath after running, looked at the broken and mottled earth wall in the distance in amazement.
The earthen wall was about one foot high, but it was very dilapidated, with large gaps exposed in many places. Looking inside through the gaps in the gaps, it seemed that a few figures flashed past.
"If you work harder, you'll be safe as long as you rush behind the earth wall!" Cheng Ling said encouragingly.
Everyone hurriedly squeezed out the remaining physical strength, and the speed climbed up a little with difficulty. After a stick of incense, they finally arrived under the earth wall.
But by this time, they didn't dare to move!
At the gap in the earth wall, hundreds of green arrowheads were pointed at them. As long as they got closer, they believed that the person behind the arrowheads would fire!
Cheng Ling stabilized his breathing and said loudly: "Seniors, please take care of us. We were chased by monsters and beasts and had no choice but to escape here. Please take care of us. I am very grateful!"
"You just want to enter the castle to survive with empty words. If I hadn't seen you and other people who don't look like Wuyinglou, I would have shot you!"
Cheng Ling was stunned, Wuyinglou? What kind of organization is that? Could it be those men in black? However, it was not the time to ask questions at all. The monster was already getting closer and closer to the wall. He asked directly: "How can you make me wait in?"
"It's very simple. You can find a place by offering your meat and swearing to be loyal to Blue Mountain Castle forever!"
Cheng Ling did not hesitate and quickly ordered everyone to throw all the meat they brought with them into the earthen wall. Immediately afterwards, he said: "I, Cheng Ling, am in a crisis with my fellow disciples. If you can save us from the fire and water, I am willing to be loyal to Blue Mountain Castle forever!"
"Squeak"
There was a sound like sawing wooden boards, and a gap opened in the center of the earth wall between two huge wooden doors.
Cheng Ling hurriedly motioned for everyone to enter. After they were all in, the last one entered, and the wooden door was closed again!
At this time, the chasing monsters and monsters were less than a hundred meters away. Cheng Ling looked up and saw two rows of strong men in coarse cloth shirts behind the wall, holding long bows. When he saw the monsters and beasts in front of him, he didn't know who shouted "Let go!"
Immediately afterwards, thousands of arrowheads shot out, and the monsters and monsters rushing in front fell one after another. After one round of shooting, the row of strong men in front immediately retreated, and the row behind them continued to shoot.
He also noticed that behind the two rows of strong men, there were large wooden barrels at regular intervals, filled with turquoise liquid. Some slightly weaker figures behind the two rows of strong men put the arrowheads into a wooden barrel, soaked them, and immediately took them out, giving them to the first row of strong men who retreated to provide fire support.
After this rotation, after several rounds of arrow rain, looking out along the grooves of the earth wall, there were already corpses of monsters and monsters lying on the ground. Moreover, some monsters were hit by only one arrow and fell down without any resistance.
Cheng Ling's heart froze, and his eyes turned to the green light emitting from the arrowhead, which was obviously poisonous. And this kind of poison is not simple. Just imagine that it is difficult for them to kill the monster with a mid-level top-notch immortal weapon. It is obviously unreasonable to kill the monster with just one shot of an inconspicuous bow and arrow.
Looking at the people in the castle, they cooperate tacitly and are extremely skilled at killing monsters and monsters. They are obviously battle-hardened!
Time passed slowly, and two hours passed. Monsters and monsters were still unable to break into the castle, but suffered huge losses. After a period of time, the bodies of the dead monsters and beasts began to melt slowly, and finally turned into green water, slowly seeping into the ground.
The other monsters and beasts were finally afraid. They no longer dared to charge. Instead, they changed directions, retreated slowly, and finally disappeared.
Silence returned outside the earthen wall, with only the thick smoke in the air and a patch of green on the ground indicating a battle that had taken place.
"What a terrible killing method. That green liquid must be highly poisonous!" Wu Tianfeng couldn't help but shudder, his voice trembling slightly.
The rest of the people also felt a chill, and Lu Xueqing even couldn't help but retched. Completely different from the reaction of the seven people, everyone in the castle cheered in unison, as if to celebrate repelling the attack of monsters and monsters.
After a while, an old man slowly walked up to them and said: "Outsiders, you are welcome to join. From now on, everyone will be a member of Blue Mountain Castle. In order to protect our homeland, we will work together to resist the monsters." spirit."
The seven of them were stunned. Yin Luoyao glanced at Cheng Ling and motioned for him to come forward and speak. As the chief disciple of Yunmeng Immortal King, she was originally responsible for contacting outsiders. However, Cheng Ling was very independent and would not suffer any disadvantages along the way, so she was naturally happy to let him do it for her.
Cheng Ling was secretly depressed, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he asked: "Senior, how do you know that we are outsiders? Have the same people been here before?" "Yes, you must be from the outside world. This Although I have never seen this situation, I have heard about it. You don’t need to call me senior, this is the Blue Mountain Tribe, just call me the Lord of the Blue Mountain Castle!"
"Yes, Master of Blue Mountain Castle! Do you call those monsters and monsters just now demon spirits?"
"Yes, according to old legends, the Demon Spirit Continent was originally an area of the fairy world. But it was suddenly set up as a barrier tens of thousands of years ago, and the way of heaven here became different from the outside world. The humans living on the Demon Spirit Continent were all You can’t practice, you can only rely on your physical strength.”
"Furthermore, the improvement of physical strength is very slow. Only by constantly killing demon spirits and obtaining their original energy can one advance. Often, by the end of one's life, one can only advance to the level of a two-marked talisman master."
"What is a Talisman Master? What kind of realm do the two lines of Talisman Master represent?"
The old man opened his clothes, revealing his naked upper body. The expressions of Chu Yulu and others changed. They thought the other party was playing hooligan and almost started to fight.
Cheng Ling quickly spread his hands to block them and said, "Don't worry, listen to him first. The two interfaces have different customs, so maybe they don't mean it!"
While explaining, he cursed in his heart: You old man, have you never seen so many beautiful fairies? You are so old and you still can't control them. One against five, you are so courageous that you are not afraid of breaking your thin body.
The old man seemed as if he hadn't seen it, and pointed to his heart and said: "Did you see the runes on it? One rune represents one rune of talisman master, two runes represent two runs, and each rune corresponds to your battle. Strength, the higher the combat power, the more runes there will naturally be."
Cheng Ling turned around and looked, and sure enough he saw two runes on the opponent's chest, and the runes were exactly the same as those on the monster he had seen before. But this still doesn't explain anything. What is the level of the Yilu Talisman Master and whether he can defeat him? There is no reference at all!
The old man continued: "You must have all seen the runes on demon spirits. Their combat power is the best reference."
Cheng Ling suddenly woke up and remembered that most of the monsters he met before had only two runes. According to this, his current level was equivalent to a two-rune master.
He asked again: "Master of Blue Mountain Castle, I see that those monster beasts don't seem to have runes on them. What's the difference between them?"
"There are many kinds of demon spirits. One type is automatically derived from the unique rules of the Demon Spirit Land. They are inexhaustible and can never be exterminated. They should be the monsters you are referring to. The other kind mostly comes from the Demon Spirit Plains, which are the demon spirits. The most mysterious place on the mainland is surrounded by many towering mountains. The monsters in the mountains have been eroded by the unique atmosphere of the Demon Spirit Plain for a long time, and have changed over time."
"The runes on their bodies are not outside the body, but are imprinted on the core. They cannot be seen unless the core is taken out."
"Surrounded by many mountains, the name is also called Demon Spirit Plain. Isn't this contradictory?"
"I don't know the specific details. I only know it from ancient books."
"There is another question. You said that it is extremely difficult to improve the rune realm. You may only be able to upgrade to two lines in your lifetime. But we have only entered the Demon Spirit Continent for less than two months. Why can our combat power be as good as that of two-line demon spirits? Competing?"
The old man sighed and said: "This is the key point. The Heavenly Way of the Demon Spirit Continent not only allows us to be trapped here forever and cannot leave for the rest of our lives, but it also does not allow us to advance easily, and we cannot even increase our longevity."
The seven people were shocked when they heard that they could not leave for the rest of their lives. Do they have to be trapped in the land of demon spirits forever?
