Unfortunately, it is not that easy to find the whereabouts of the two intruders in the vast mountains with countless forks and dangerous steps.
With a confident attitude, the Stone Master led thousands of men and horses, followed closely behind Ning Fan and the others, and pursued them into the Corpse Mountains. However, they only followed a few mountains away before completely losing track of the two Ning Fans.
A vigorous pursuit ended in vain.
…
Ning Fan had Long Sanchui leading the way and without much effort, he got rid of the pursuit of Stone Master and others.
Long Sanchui is indeed very familiar with the landform pattern of the Corpse Mountains. With him leading the way, Ning Fan can avoid many mazes, forks, and ferocious beast territories while walking in the Corpse Mountains, reducing a certain amount of traveling time and moving faster.
Although it is said to be fast, it is actually only compared to the difficulty of ordinary people walking in the Corpse Mountains.
Even with Long Sanchui as a guide, Ning Fan would not be able to walk swiftly within this mountain range. The speed to get rid of Stone Master and others is enough.
Within the mountains, there are towering ancient trees.
Those ancient trees are endless. They have been dead for thousands of years. The smallest ones need a hundred people to hug them. For the thicker ones, one tree often covers several acres.
The ancient trees grow according to the rules, and the gaps between the trees form forked roads. Every forked road is winding in the shape of a dragon. Countless forked roads are connected, as if ten thousand dragons are entrenched. Ordinary people may not be able to feel it. However, Ning Fan, who has mastered the secret of "shi", feels the powerful momentum coming towards him when he sees the layout of this place. .
And from this complex geographical pattern, I felt a sense of extreme danger, and the hairs on my hair stood up involuntarily.
His feeling is absolutely unmistakable! This Corpse Mountain Range is a dangerous place!
Every plant and tree in the mountains may seem ordinary, but they cannot be touched casually.
Ning Fan's eyes were extremely solemn.
Just now, he accidentally touched an ancient tree here, which immediately caused a slight change in the general situation of the place.
Then countless gray sword threads, as thin as a woman's length, burst out of the ancient tree out of thin air. The power revealed directly knocked Ning Fan and Long Sanchui backwards!
Fortunately for Ning Fan, he deliberately activated the God-Destroying Titan's Dharma form in time, and instantly transformed into the complete form of the God-Destroying Titan. Although he was blown away by the gray sword thread, he was not injured.
Long Sanchui was much miserable. Even though he had activated a body of black dragon scales to defend himself at the critical moment, he was still beaten until he vomited blood and suffered some injuries.
What’s interesting is that while this Dragon Three Hammer was vomiting blood and flying backwards, it still didn’t forget its sense of responsibility as a senior Nightmare Dragon and wanted to protect Ning Fan.
The huge black dragon wings spread out and blocked Ning Fan in front of him. While wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he looked back and gave a thumbs up. His white teeth were shining brightly, looking like he was overly enthusiastic.
"Be careful, little friend! Don't touch any vegetation here. Come under my dragon wings and I will protect you! Don't be afraid or panic, as long as I am here..."
When he turned around, what Long Sanchui saw was Ning Fan, who had dispersed the God-Destroying Giant and was completely unharmed.
The gray sword thread dispersed after one strike.
Among the ancient woods, a few crows suddenly flew by...
Awkward.
Except the embarrassment begins.
Long Sanchui, who looked like a senior, could never have imagined that even he, the Six-Tribulation Immortal Emperor, would be injured by a single blow from the sword here, but Ning Fan could survive without any damage...
Ning Fan suddenly felt a little funny.
This Dragon Three Hammer seems to be a top-notch one, but his head seems to be a bit unclear. Although the cultivation of the beast body is more or less one-minded, the old man's level of one-mindedness seems to be a little beyond the bottom line of ordinary people.
If you talk to him more, you will find that this person is just a fool.
But for some reason, Ning Fan was quite happy to go with such an idiot compared to walking with an old monster with a deep knowledge of the city. At least he didn't have to worry about being stabbed in the back.
With his ability to communicate with all things, he can easily obtain the following information, confirming that Long Sanchui's passionate stupidity is not a disguise.
Long Sanchui's clothes: "I am clothes, just clothes! The master is a fool, a fool!"
Long Sanchui's shoes: "I am a shoe! I am a shoe! The owner is a fool, a fool!"
Long Sanchui's eyesore: "I'm an eyesore! I'm an eyesore! The master is an idiot, an idiot!"
Dragon Three Hammer’s…
In short, this is a somewhat pitiful Nightmare Dragon Immortal Emperor. Even the parts on his body are mocking him as a fool...
Without such convenient intelligence capabilities, Ning Fan would never have been able to trust someone like Long Sanchui who he had only met once.
Ning Fan raised his hand and threw a bottle of elixir to Long Sanchui, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Long Sanchui took the elixir, and with a sweep of his mind, his expression was shocked, and then tears filled his eyes.
"Nine-turn Emperor Pill! My dear friend, you are so generous. You gave me such a high-level healing pill as a gift! Long is so touched!"
"... Take it quickly to heal your wounds. I will protect you. In any case, it was me who carelessly touched the ancient trees here, which led to such a sword-thread attack. It caused you to be injured. It is only natural that I should compensate you with some elixirs." Ning Fan said calmly.
"Thank you for your kindness! We are destined to meet each other. From today on, Long will recognize you as his friend. Through fire and water, my little friend, Long will never refuse!"
Long Sanchui laughed loudly, followed his instructions and sat cross-legged on the ground, taking the elixir and refining it.
The burst of hearty laughter suddenly gave Ning Fan an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Familiar yet strange.
Refining medicinal power to heal injuries will take some time.
At first, Long Sanchui was concentrating on healing his wounds, but then he became a little bored and started to find something to talk to Ning Fan.
Unlike Long Sanchui, who is a talkative person, Ning Fan is not a talkative person. In Long Sanchui's view, he is completely the type who can't poke a thing out of his head and has an extremely boring personality.
In the end, Long Sanchui had no choice but to give up talking to Ning Fan and instead licked his tongue and asked.
"Do you have any wine?"
But he became addicted to alcohol.
"...As an Immortal Emperor, you don't have any spiritual wine?" Ning Fan was speechless.
"Hey! Don't be too fussy about this little thing. To be honest, little friend, I drank my own wine, haha, I finished it a long time ago. I finally saw a compatriot, so, so..."
"...So you're traveling with me just to get some drinks?" Ning Fan felt a headache coming from him.
"Haha, I can't say that. It's not that I have to drink. I just feel that I feel like old friends as soon as I meet you, as if it's not the first day I've known each other, so I want to have a drink with you more and more. It's a meeting between monks of my generation. , like-minded people, it would be a bit of a pity if I couldn't sit in a dangerous building a hundred feet high and drink a pot of real good wine."
“…”
Ning Fan was slightly silent.
Feeling like old friends at first sight...
He seemed to have a strange feeling, that he was familiar yet unfamiliar with the Dragon Three Hammers.
Qi Long Sanchui's words, for some reason, gave him a sense of familiarity, as if he had heard similar words somewhere.
I remembered…
Back then, he changed his name to Lu Bei for the first time, and at the request of Luo Yun Feng Yao Lu Daochen, he went to rescue an ancient heavenly general, Lu Wu.
Na Luwu seemed to have said similar words before disappearing.
Sitting a hundred feet high in a dangerous building with you, drinking a pot of real good wine...
Ning Fan suddenly felt a sense of soul impact, suddenly felt something, and headed towards Long Sanchui to investigate.
After this exploration, his eyes suddenly trembled, as if he had confirmed something, but there was something unexplainable and unbelievable inside.
The somewhat stupid, somewhat righteous, somewhat heroic Long Sanchui in front of him seems to be Lu Wu, who had a drinking date with him...
If you carefully identify the auras of the two, you will find that their auras are very different due to the changes in reincarnation, but within that difference, there is... an indelible nature that cannot be erased by reincarnation.
Could this Dragon Three Hammer be Lu Wu’s afterlife? The so-called feeling like old friends at first sight was just a drinking date back then?
However, there is something unexplainable about this.
6How many years have it been since I re-entered reincarnation...
Long Sanchui's bone age is obviously that of an emperor who lived from ancient times to today.
It can't be reincarnation.
So, is that aura similar to Luwu just an illusion...
Or maybe reincarnation is something that cannot be understood by normal time logic...
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with green light, and he was at a loss. The realization of reincarnation was also overwhelming in his mind.
Two voices in my mind were debating whether Long Sanchui was Liu Wu. One voice firmly believed that his feeling was correct, while the other voice kept denying this argument from the perspective of time logic.
For a long time, for a long time...
Ning Fan's expression returned to normal and he took a long breath.
Can't figure it out.
Can't see through.
Is reincarnation such a puzzling thing?
If you are in it and understand it based on your own time logic, it seems... it is difficult to see the reality.
Unable to figure it out, Ning Fan stopped thinking about it. He just patted the storage bag, took out two jars of spiritual wine, threw one jar to Long Sanchui, then patted open the mud seal, and started drinking.
It was as if he wanted to drink all the doubts in his heart into his belly and forget about them.
Long Sanchui was startled at first, and then laughed loudly. He also opened the mud seal and started drinking.
After drinking, there was no communication between the two, and Long Sanchui quickly finished refining the potion and returned to its full strength.
Yet something has changed.
Long Sanchui walked with Ning Fan before, out of some kindness to protect his compatriots and juniors.
Ning Fan, on the other hand, just wanted to take advantage of Long Sanchui's knowledge of the Corpse Mountains.
It was different now. There seemed to be some friendship between the two, as if it had been accumulated for many years. It seemed that this drinking session was Ning Fan's first time, but not Long Sanchui's first time.
Ning Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and confirmed one thing, that is, Long Sanchui's physical body was a bit powerful and his injuries recovered very quickly. He was afraid that even without the pills he sent, he would be able to heal on his own in a very short time.
"Hey! After traveling for so many days, I didn't ask my little friend his name. It's really rude. I wonder what I call you?"
"You can call me Ning Fan, or my pseudonym is Lu Bei..."
"Lu Bei? This name, I feel like I've heard it somewhere before... As expected, brother Ning gave me the feeling of feeling like old friends at first sight! Haha!"
"We feel like old friends at first sight... reincarnation is like a stranger, reincarnation may also be like meeting again..."
Ning Fan murmured to himself, and the words he spoke made Long Sanchui's eyes blank for a moment.
He just felt that the level of enlightenment in Ning Fan's words was beyond his comprehension. Now it seemed that he had underestimated this junior from beginning to end.
"Brother Ning's defensive methods are truly amazing. He was able to block the attack of the Saint Sword Formation here with his Immortal Master cultivation. It's really amazing! Brother, I wanted to save you, but I didn't expect it. But I was given a favor by you, haha, I’m ashamed, I’m ashamed.” Long Sanchui laughed.
"If I don't have certain means, I don't dare to come here. As for the Saint Sword Formation...I see, it's no wonder that the sword thread just now has such terrifying power, which made me instantly have the prediction to activate the maximum defense. , It turns out that the general situation of this place has actually formed a saint's killing sword formation, which is why it is so dangerous..." Ning Fan's face was expressionless, but he was slightly shocked in his heart.
No wonder he can't see through the trajectory of the general trend here...
This place is indeed not a good place!
"It is said that during his lifetime, Holy Ancestor Dabei used the pattern of mountains and rivers as his sword, and the heaven and earth as the sheath, to set up a killing sword formation here. After his death, for some unknown reason, this place became the sleeping place of Lady Bones. Alas, Although I am the 100th Xiaosheng of Sanyan, I don’t know much about its secrets. In short, you and I must be careful when walking in this mountain forest and don’t mess with the layout of this place. As for what you are looking for The sacrificial weapon... well, that kind of thing is the key to the layout of this place. If it moves... it's just a matter of getting to know each other. If there is a drastic change in the layout, my brother will definitely help you!"
After saying that, Long Sanchui, who had recovered from his injuries, once again led Ning Fan on a familiar road through the forks in the dangerous ancient tree.
On both sides of the forest road, the aura of ancient and powerful creatures could occasionally be heard. Most of them were immortals, and there were many immortal emperors.
The Three Flames are the most dangerous place in the Jidan Sanctuary, and the Corpse Mountains are the most dangerous place for the Three Flames. Ning Fan is not surprised that there are so many powerful auras dormant.
He didn't deliberately explore what species those auras were.
If you don't take the initiative to explore those ancient creatures, it seems that you won't be attacked.
Where the two mountain ranges connect, there are often formations blocking them to prevent outsiders from intruding into the mountains.
The self-proclaimed Dragon Three Hammer has only mediocre formation attainments, and it is extremely difficult to break these formations. Fortunately, whenever this time comes, Ning Fan will look for the location of the Yin Formation, easily confuse the formation with methods that Long Sanchui cannot understand, and continue to move forward.
The various strange things about Ning Fan constantly refreshed Long Sanchui's understanding. Gradually, no matter how stupid Long Sanchui was, he realized that Ning Fan was the ghost-faced monk who destroyed the He family and killed He Zu.
Of course, I haven't realized that Ning Fan is not the same kind as the nightmare dragon.
As Ning Fan moved forward, he memorized the formation pattern here. Gradually, the changes in reality and reality in the entire Corpse Mountain Range became clear in his mind.
There are more than a thousand rolling peaks in the Corpse Mountains, but most of them are virtual positions of the formation, and there are only 305 peaks in real positions.
The arrangement of the real peaks is even more strange and abnormal. If it weren't for the kind of existence that can clearly distinguish the reality of the general trend, it would never be possible to see this. There are 305 solid peaks here, standing on the ground. If you look down from the sky, you will look like a giant with the mountain as its bones, with its limbs stretched out, sleeping on the ground!
Three hundred and five bones, which is not the number of bones of an adult, but roughly consistent with the number of bones of a baby...
"The layout of this place gives me an extremely uncomfortable feeling. It's not just a sense of crisis, but a simple dislike..."
"The route we are traveling seems to start from the feet of this sleeping baby pattern and move all the way towards the head..."
"The head of the sleeping baby seems to be sealed with some extremely powerful existence. That kind of power...seems to be a bit more terrifying than the Niugui Supreme. Could it be the legendary first of the five great and humble...Mrs. Bones ?”
"Back then, I learned the Heaven-Breaking Sword Fingers from Xiao Dugu. The inheritance of swordsmanship seems to echo with some kind of swordsmanship power here..."
"Speaking of which, Emperor Tiandu plotted against me that day and wanted to trick me into coming to Kongyan's most secret place to learn the supreme swordsmanship... Could it be that the place where Emperor Tiandu plotted was the Corpse Mountain Range? If that's true, that's true. It’s a coincidence.”
While Ning Fan was walking slowly, his mind was racing.
Two days later, he finally arrived at the head of the Sleeping Baby pattern under the free guidance of Long Sanchui!
The first thing I saw was a huge gate high above the dense forest!
"The Tianhuang Giant Gate is the path to the true world left by the descendants of Zi Dou Immortal Emperor Zi Dou. There are also rumors from the outside world that there is a Tianhuang Stone Gate inside the Ji Dan Sanctuary. Unexpectedly, it is actually true! Moreover, the location where Tianhuang Stone Gate exists is the most dangerous Corpse Mountain Range in Sanyan!"
"I was still wondering before. Even I knew that there was a wild stone gate hidden here. Why did the two human and demon clans not plot this stone gate, but the wild one... It turns out that this is the case. It must be because of the Supreme Pill Saint. The real foundation of the domain is too strong, and the location of this stone gate is too tricky. With the four days of the Momo Dream Realm and the foundation of the demon clan, if you want to attack this stone gate under the noses of the five great and inferior masters, the success rate is almost Yu Ling. So on the surface, it seems that the wild place is easier to win..."
"It's weird...this stone gate in the wild is actually...calling me..."
If it were Ning Fan in the past, he would not be able to hear this call.
But now he is a god with a broken body, and he is also a god who has awakened the ability to communicate with all things. He can hear the inner voice of this wild stone gate, but others cannot!
"It's the induction of the key... in your hand, it can't be wrong. Disciple Luan Gu, do you want to... open me, and from me, walk into the ancient mirror of heaven and earth, and walk into... the true world!"
It is the gentle call of the stone gate of the wilderness!
Then, Ning Fan felt that there seemed to be some force behind the last door of the sutra storage tower given by Luan Gu, urging the door to open little by little.
That door he couldn't open!
That voice that claims 'You don't know your concubine'!
With a bang, the door of the Buddhist Scripture Pagoda opened!
Then a gray stream of light flew out from the Sutra Storage Tower in the Xuanyin Realm, and was taken out by Ning Fan with one move, landing in his palm.
It's a tear.
It is the illusory key formed by gray tears.
This is the voice of that gray tear.
It was the call of the giant gate of the wilderness again.
Ning Fan never expected that such a situation would happen when he came to the Corpse Mountains. Considering his nature, he couldn't help but feel a little confused at this moment.
Keys and stuff, Tianhuang Stone Gate and stuff, it was too sudden... He needed to sort it out.
Especially the key.
The sound of the key was difficult for Ning Fan to hear clearly due to the barrier of reincarnation.
But at this moment, when he touched the Gray Tears Key at close range, he clearly felt the familiarity this key brought to him.
The aura in this key is clearly... consistent with that of Sword Ancestor.
That's it. No wonder the key told him repeatedly that he didn't know his concubine.
So is it.
In the fourth tribulation of She Kongxin, Ning Fan saw some cause and effect. He was originally a butterfly reincarnated in Butterfly's hometown, and it was Sword Ancestor who took him out of Butterfly's hometown and entered the human world.
Sword Ancestor must have known him, but because of his reincarnation, he could no longer remember the encounter when he was a butterfly.
Jingle Bell!
The Gray Tears Key in Ning Fan's hand suddenly glowed and vibrated.
At the same time, from a gray mountain peak not far away, the sound of chains clashing suddenly came from nowhere.
To be precise, the sound came from a huge cave on the gray mountain peak.
Ning Fan frowned deeply.
From inside the cave, Ning Fan noticed a terrifying aura that was comparable to the ancient overhaul!
The aura was vague and uncertain, sometimes very close and sometimes very far away, making it difficult for others to accurately perceive the aura of the ancient cultivator.
But I also know that since an ancient major cultivator will suddenly appear here, it is probably the White Bone Lady who is known as the first and most powerful person in the world...
The Bone Lady in the cave does not seem to be awake, but in a deep sleep. If you listen carefully, you will hear the sound of wind between heaven and earth, which is evenly like the even breathing of a woman when she is sleeping...it should undoubtedly be the breathing sound of the Bone Lady.
"The Jiuli Sacrificial Artifact I'm looking for seems to be in that cave..." Ning Fan said as if facing a formidable enemy.
"The rumored Lady Bones seems to be sleeping in that cave. Hiss! What a terrible smell, even scarier than I imagined! One mistake will lead to death! There is no other way, brother Ning, you Just wait here and I will search the cave for you to see if there is the sacrificial weapon you are looking for! With your little cultivation, don’t take risks!"
The teeth of Long San's hammer began to tremble. This was because his body was instinctively afraid of the dangers in the cave, not because he was timid in his heart.
He could foresee the terror of the Bone Lady in the cave, but if he had to take a risk, as generous as he was, he would be willing to take this risk instead of Ning Fan.
"No need. I am very grateful to senior for taking me all the way here. Naturally, I can't let senior take risks on my behalf. I didn't expect that the aura of the White Bone Lady is comparable to the ancient overhaul. It seems that the Jiu Li Sacrificial Artifact is indeed It’s not such an easy thing to get. If this trip goes a little wrong, not only will I die here, but also my senior will probably die as well. Let’s do this, senior, leave now. I will wait for my senior to leave the Bone Mountain before entering. This hole! Even if something happens, it won’t affect the seniors." Ning Fan said expressionlessly.
"No! I brought you here. How can I leave you alone..."
"Senior, don't worry. If I were just one person, it would be easier to escape."
"Haha, are you changing your mind and saying that I, the majestic Immortal Emperor of Six Tribulations, am a burden to you, a junior Immortal Lord!"
Long Sanchui just laughed, but showed a stubborn attitude that he would never leave early no matter what.
Ning Fan suddenly felt a headache. Having such a loyal friend was sometimes very helpless.
That’s all…
If the matter is really serious and he has to escape, he will try his best to leave with Long Sanchui.
Whether it's Lu Wu or Long Sanchui, he recognizes this friend.
"Hurry up and get the sacrificial artifact you want. Because of the delay in my previous healing, the person who looks like the Stone Master is about to chase me here... When you were looking for something, I happened to be outside to stop the Stone Master for you. of men and horses!”
Long Sanchui's one eye suddenly narrowed slightly.
In the dense forest in the distance, many Three Flame monks are approaching this place.
With a wave of his hand, he sent out a strong wind and sent Ning Fan flying to the entrance of the cave.
Then he stood with his hands behind his back, blocking the direction of the cave, ready for a big battle with the pursuers.
Ning Fan didn't say any more, he held his fist far away in the direction of Long Sanchui, and then ducked into the cave.
The further he walked into the cave, the more he could feel the huge momentum inside the cave, which seemed to be separated by an entire reincarnation.
After walking a few hundred steps toward the cave, suddenly a gray sword light with a chaotic luster came out from an empty scabbard hanging on the stone wall in the cave... (To be continued.)
