The outer area was extremely vast. In the next few days, no one saw a single alien, but they encountered a few attribute elves. Unfortunately, the chances of the attribute elves in the peripheral areas containing essence and kingship orders in their bodies are too low. There may not be even one in a hundred.
On this day, everyone finally saw the figure, and it was not just one or two people, but a large group.
This place is a colorful chaotic area, with countless attribute auras filling the sky. These auras are so violent that it is impossible to break through them forcefully. Therefore, most monks only walk on the ground and rarely fly into the air.
Ahead is a canyon about a hundred feet wide. There is an arch bridge on the canyon. Looking at the sky on the other side of the arch bridge, the aura of attributes is more intense. It must be the boundary between the inner and outer areas.
On one side of the arch bridge, dozens of figures gathered, all of whom were monks involved in Shanhexu.
"I don't believe that a mere arch bridge can stop me."
A young monk lingered beside the arch bridge for a long time. Finally, he made up his mind and stepped onto the arch bridge with a firm expression.
Uh-huh!
After landing on the ground, Cheng Ling watched how the other party passed the arch bridge.
The young man who stepped onto the arch bridge was hit by the first wave of attacks before he had even taken a few steps. The stone sculptures on both sides of the bridge seemed to come alive. Their mouths opened and they spurted out light waves one after another. The light waves were powerful and heavy. The young man was violently pushed back, vomiting blood.
"Damn it, the bridge is too narrow, there's no place to dodge."
The young man was very unwilling, but he did not want to try again. This was still the first wave of attacks. Even if he survived the first wave, he would not be able to withstand the second and third waves. If he was killed and his realm dropped, then What a big loss, after all, there is not much time left in the Mountain and River Void Realm, and it will take a lot of time to return to practice again.
Cheng Ling glanced at the stone sculptures on both sides of the arch bridge, then at the people behind him, and finally said: "Everyone get on the bridge together. Brother Gu and Second Senior Sister, you protect the left side and try your best to resist the attack of the stone sculptures. Leave the right side to me!"
Gucheng Feng and Chu Yulu nodded, and immediately came to the left side, guarding Zhou Yuanbai, Zhang Hu, and Song Yingjie in the middle. As for the right side, Cheng Ling was there, so they were relieved.
The six people lined up in formation, Cheng Ling said: "Go" and walked slowly towards the arch bridge.
The remaining monks waiting by the bridge suddenly brightened up and thought to themselves that this was a good idea. They looked for familiar monks one by one and planned to work together to cross the bridge together. But there were also some monks watching, wanting to see if Cheng Ling and the others could succeed.
Bang bang bang!
As soon as the six people stepped onto the arch bridge, the stone sculptures on both sides launched light wave attacks. Gucheng Feng and Chu Yulu were guarding the left side, one in front and one in the back, raising their swords to resist at the same time.
As for Cheng Ling, when the stone sculptures on both sides sprayed light waves at him, before they could get closer, the Blood Drinking Sword was launched, and those light waves were cut in two, as if there was an invisible sword net covering the entire right side.
"What a fast sword speed."
The monks who can reach this point are not geniuses. Although they can't see clearly the path of Cheng Ling's sword, they can at least see Cheng Ling's sword. They feel that the long sword in the opponent's hand that exudes a blood-red enchanting light is like a sword. It looked like it was growing on his arm, and it struck first. He swung out countless swords in an instant, breaking the first wave of light attacks.
Soon, Cheng Ling's long sword formed a giant net of sword energy. Those light waves shattered when they were half a meter away from the six people, without any impact.
Zhou Yuanbai stood in the center and was amazed when he saw Cheng Ling's action. But he did not pause at all, but accelerated his speed and continued to advance towards the other side of the arch bridge.
A quarter of an hour passed like this, and the six people finally crossed the arch bridge and reached the other side. Gucheng Feng and Chu Yulu breathed a long sigh of relief and secretly soothed their numb arm muscles. The impact of those light wave attacks was huge. The two of them worked together to keep the light waves from breaking through the defense line, almost using their hand speed to the limit.
On the other hand, Cheng Ling, who resisted all the attacks on the right side by himself, was still calm and composed, as if he had done an insignificant thing.
"In terms of swordsmanship, he and I should be on equal footing. The main difference is in cultivation. There is a big difference. After entering the inner area, we must try our best to kill the attribute elves to get more essence and break through the Immortal Lord stage in one fell swoop. !" Gu Chengfeng felt unhappy and secretly swore.
Chu Yulu lamented that the depth of the third junior brother was really getting harder and harder to see through.
Passing the arch bridge easily, the six people entered the inner area without looking back. As for the people behind, if they want to pass the arch bridge, they can only rely on their own abilities.
There are several times more attribute elves in the inner area than in the outer area. In the outer area, you are lucky to encounter an attribute elf in a few days. In the inner area, six people can encounter one almost every day.
It's a pity that even in the inner area, the probability of attribute elves containing essence in their bodies is not high, let alone the kingship order. After killing fifty attribute elves in a row, six people only received five essences, one for each person except Cheng Ling.
"No wonder every time the Mountains and Rivers Void Realm opens, there are not many monks who can be crowned kings in the King Granting Tower. Without access to essence, it is too difficult to upgrade to the Immortal King stage, let alone collect the King Granting Order!" Zhang Tiger said with emotion.
Cheng Ling said: "Calculating the time, there are still three months until the King's Tower is opened. Don't rush, there should be a chance."
However, Guchengfeng couldn't bear it any longer. He originally thought that the six of them would be more certain to obtain the King's Order together, but now there are too many monks and too little food, and the chance of getting the essence from killing attribute elves is low. If he continues like this, when will he be able to advance? To the stage of Immortal King.
He immediately said: "This is too slow, I'd better act alone!"
Zhou Yuanbai glanced at him and saw that his face was very determined, and he said helplessly: "That's it, Brother Cheng, let's say goodbye then. I hope everyone has good luck."
Cheng Ling didn't try to persuade him to stay. To be honest, if it weren't for taking care of Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie, he would have planned to act alone.
After the two left, Chu Yulu said apologetically: "Third Junior Brother, your combat power is much higher than ours. It will waste time. Let's enter the core area first!"
Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie also said: "Master (young master), the second senior sister is right, don't worry, we will work hard!"
Cheng Ling slowly shook his head and said: "As I said, there are still three months left, don't rush, let's help you improve your cultivation to the Immortal Lord stage first!"
The three of them were grateful and stopped trying to persuade them. They just pushed deeper, hoping to get more essence as soon as possible.
Poof!
Blood-red sword light pierced the sky, and the sword split open the body of a tiger elf.
The tiger spirit was extremely powerful. Even after most of its body was cut off, it did not dissipate. Instead, it twisted its body and roared towards Cheng Ling.
"die!"
Cheng Ling drew his sword again, and the Blood Drinking Sword instantly penetrated from the center of his eyebrows. The tiger spirit's body dissipated, and after its body dissipated, a colorful essence rose slowly and floated in the air.
"Second Senior Sister, you should absorb this essence first!"
Chu Yulu was not polite, nodded and took it, and absorbed it immediately.
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days passed.
During this period, after entering the inner area, she got almost twenty essences. Cheng Ling took the initiative and gave all these essences to Chu Yulu to absorb. Her cultivation level had reached the limit of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal, and she was about to break through the Immortal Lord stage. .
He has his own plan. If the obtained essence is evenly distributed, the progress of the three of them will be very slow. It is better to let one of them advance to the Immortal Lord stage first.
Sure enough, an hour later, after Chu Yulu absorbed the essence, her whole aura suddenly increased, and her Qi refining cultivation was promoted to the Immortal Lord stage.
Now, there are two Immortal Lords in the team, who are more powerful, and the pressure on Cheng Ling is much less. In the past, when they encountered several attribute elves gathered together, they took the initiative to avoid them. Now that they encountered more attribute elves, they had the confidence to go forward and fight!
Soon, the four of them met two attribute elves gathered together. They stepped forward without hesitation!
The blood-drinking sword was unsheathed, Cheng Ling faced one attribute elf alone, and the remaining three faced another one.
Puff puff puff!
Under the continuous blows, the two attribute elves were unable to turn over any wolf flowers. The holes pierced by the sword shadow immediately dissipated.
"Yes!"
Zhang Hu's face was filled with joy. After the two attribute elves dissipated, two essences floated out.
Cheng Ling pondered for a while and said, "Let Yingjie absorb these two essences first!"
Song Yingjie was overjoyed, and Zhang Hu was not angry. As Cheng Ling's disciple, he naturally obeyed his orders unconditionally, and he believed that Cheng Ling would not treat him badly.
Moving forward, the four of them gradually entered a better state and obtained more and more essence. Another month passed, and Song Yingjie and Zhang Hu advanced to the Immortal Lord stage one after another.
Cheng Ling breathed a sigh of relief, he could finally use the essence. Holding the Jingyuan and looking at it carefully, he could feel that as soon as his spiritual consciousness came close to the Jingyuan, a huge amount of energy was transmitted to it.
He swallowed it without hesitation, and the huge energy was transported and refined in his veins. After a while, I felt that my cultivation level had improved a little!
"Looking at the energy of Jingyuan, it takes almost a thousand to reach the Immortal King stage. It seems that we are about to enter the core area."
The three of them had already entered the Immortal Lord stage, so they naturally nodded in agreement.
I don't know if the core area is just ahead, or for other reasons. Along the way, the four of them met many monks, many alien races, and the number of attribute elves was also increasing.
boom!
After driving for a while, a violent explosion suddenly came from the front, and strong air currents radiated in all directions. Some vegetation was uprooted, and sand and rocks flew.
"Someone is fighting, go and take a look!"
The monks who entered the attribute area fought not only for the essence, but also for other reasons. They were very attracted to them. Their eyes lit up, and their speed invisibly accelerated a lot, and they flew past quickly.
"We are about to enter the core area. The battle there will probably be much more intense than in the inner area." Cheng Ling said secretly.
After traveling for dozens of miles, the four people arrived at the fighting site.
"so many people?"
Looking around, Cheng Ling was slightly surprised.
Above the stretching mountains, a large group of people were fighting together. Human monks, Yuanshen clan, and attribute elves, it was impossible to tell who was who.
With sharp eyes, Chu Yulu saw two figures in the distance and shouted: "It's senior sister, second senior brother, and fourth junior sister!"
Cheng Ling followed her gaze and saw that Yin Luoyao, Jiang Chongshan, and Yao Wenyuan were fighting with several Yuanshen clan monks, and the fight was extremely fierce.
