After Lu Feng used Yin Feiqiao's plan to stop the old monster with a long tongue, he fled deep into the mountains.
Based on the consideration of concealing traces, the Jade Dragon Horse was not summoned, nor was the Yin Yang Dragon Shadow Step used. Both of them would more or less leave traceable auras.
Lu Feng knew that if he wanted to escape the pursuit of a strong man like the Long-Toothed Old Monster, he could only succeed by relying on the secret technique of the Turtle Breath Dragon to hide his aura, slow down his speed, and suppress his running movements to a minimum.
Lu Feng was still hesitating at first. Should he not directly ride on the jade dragon pony to hide and escape? It would be better to distance himself. However, not long after he lurked, the figure of the old monster with a long tongue chased him. He couldn't help but put it away. other thoughts.
After all, Jade Dragon Colt has not yet entered the mature stage. In terms of speed, it is difficult to significantly widen the gap with the soul masters at the post-breath level of the Heavenly Soul Realm.
Lu Feng kept his figure and sneaked all the way to the area near the middle of the Xuanyou Mountain Range.
Suddenly several inconsistent "sizzling" sounds were heard.
Lu Feng looked towards a haystack not far away, looking for the source of the sizzling sound.
What they found was a corpse of a soul beast that was completely charred and black, as if it had been struck by lightning. There were several sharp cuts on the surface of the corpse, and there were small blue flames, faintly mixed with a wisp of terrifying golden energy.
"Tian Ting Sword Sect! Tian Ting Sword Technique!"
After Lu Feng recognized that the injuries on this "Wind Thunder Leopard" were caused by the swordsmanship of the Tianting Sword Sect, his face suddenly turned cold.
The one attending the Yaoxian Banquet on this trip from the Tianting Sword Sect was Xun Changguan!
Lu Feng had discovered his presence at the entrance to the mountain range. Compared to Yin Feiqiao, Luo Tianfu and others, Lu Feng's hatred for Xun Changguan was undoubtedly much deeper.
In the Sword Ruins, Xun Changguan's harm to his disciples of the Qingshan Sword Sect was simply outrageous. Mei Zisu's broken arm, Zhuo Shixin's sacrifice, etc. can all be said to be caused by this person!
Lu Feng suddenly became murderous. Following the traces left when Feng Lei Bao died, he identified the whereabouts of Xun Changguan. He saw that he was a comrade in the depths of the mountain range he was traveling on, so he immediately pursued him.
Along the way, several more soul beasts were discovered that had died tragically, all of them died under the fierce sword skills.
Although the subsequent sword marks showed signs of deliberate concealment, Lu Feng still saw the traces of Tianting's sword technique. It was still Xun Changguan's work, and the direction he was following was not wrong.
However, the aura lingering on the bodies of these beasts gave him a trace of doubt.
From the scars on the beast's body, he felt a terrifying aura that was not weaker than Yin Feiqiao's.
This is definitely not the strength that Xun Changguan can possess!
If the Tianting Sword Sect had not risked the treachery to infiltrate other disciples, then there would be only one possibility.
Xun Changguan, like Yin Feiqiao, most likely improved his strength through some special means.
Lu Feng couldn't help but think of the scenes in the Sword Ruins, and when he thought of the words Chi Yuanqing mentioned at that time, four words came to mind.
Phaseless source Gu!
The Tianting Sword Sect doesn't understand the "spiritual crossing" thing in the Longevity Valley, so it's difficult to sacrifice the older generation of soul masters to achieve a breakthrough in Xun Changguan's strength. His current improvement is probably related to the opportunities obtained by the Jianxu.
Lu Feng thought that Chi Yuanqing was only forced to take the imperfect phaseless source Gu, and his strength had been raised to the level of the half-step heavenly soul realm. Xun Changguan had a perfect phaseless source Gu in his hand. It is enough to cross the threshold of the Heavenly Soul Realm, or even higher.
Such an existence seems to be more difficult to deal with than Yin Feiqiao.
In the current situation, there are old monsters with long tongues waiting behind them and Tianchu Villa patrolling above, so it seems inappropriate to take action.
But after Lu Feng thought about it, he still chose to go deeper.
Even leaving aside the blood feud between Zhuo Shixin and the others, he still needs to find out more about Xun Changguan. If his strength is really enhanced by the phaseless source Gu, he also needs to see if he can control the demonic nature that comes with it. It was also the demonic nature that was suppressed through what means.
In order to better help Chi Yuanqing, lest he lose control of his mind one day and embark on a place of eternal disaster.
As it goes deeper.
The animals that died along the way also healed
It has a lot more hair, and its strength has also been upgraded from the Wind Thunder Leopard at the initial Five Elements Realm level to the Gold-Eating Dark Spider at the mid-to-late Earth Soul Realm level.
Without exception, all of them were stripped of their beast elixirs.
At first, when Lu Feng saw Xun Changguan killing soul beasts wantonly, he thought it was because he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make money. However, as he came into contact with more and more beast corpses, he suddenly noticed a characteristic. The dead ones were actually made of metal. Sexual soul beasts, and they all tend to be beasts that contain the power of thunder.
This made him suspicious.
Could it be that Xun Changguan was planning something using these soul beast pills with the properties of golden thunder?
soon.
Lu Feng found a new anomaly.
Under a mountain wall, at a natural stone platform, he saw a large piece of beast elixir that had lost its luster and spirituality.
After perception, he can be sure that they are exactly the ones he encountered along the way.
At this moment, there is no trace of thunder power in these beast pills, and they have all become empty shells.
Lu Feng's face was a little solemn. There were at least twenty or thirty empty shells of beast elixirs piled up on the ground in front of him, and most of them had some earthly soul level aura, as if they were taken from the bodies of earthly soul beasts. .
Such abundant energy, if used to form an array, would be enough to kill ordinary soul masters at the Heavenly Soul Realm level.
It was difficult for Lu Feng to understand what Xun Changguan wanted to use this energy for.
Even if you want to use the power of thunder to improve your Tianting Sword Technique, you won't need to use so much of it, right?
With full of doubts, Lu Feng continued to carefully move closer to the depths of the mountains.
same moment.
Tianchu Villa, outside Elder Chihuo's dining hall.
One of the messenger disciples was gasping for breath, with a face full of eagerness to see him.
"Uncle Chihuo, it's not good, many of our patrol elders died in the mountains for no apparent reason."
Chi Huo walked out of the shack with a sullen face, a mist-like gas lingering around his body, which made the messenger disciple's eyes grow greedy.
Such spiritual accumulation seems to be caused by the aura permeating the rare spiritual porridge. The aura alone has such an effect. It is hard to imagine how much improvement one will have after just one sip.
The appearance of Ling Yun also marks that Ling Porridge has finally reached the level of perfection and completed the final finishing touch.
After Elder Chihuo walked out, he glanced up and down at the disciple who was delivering the message, and asked with dissatisfaction and suspicion: "If something happens to the patrolling elder, you should go to the deacon hall. Why are you looking for me?"
The disciple approached eagerly and took a roll of parchment drawings in his hand. "This disciple came to invite Master Chihuo on the orders of the elders of the Deacon Hall. This is the message they gave..."
sieve……
Before the messenger disciple finished speaking, the moment the blueprint in his hand was rolled up, three dark green cold lights suddenly burst out, piercing the red fire in front of him.
"Little trick!" Chi Huo snorted coldly, and with a blazing palm movement, he instantly stopped the three long dark cyan needles in front of his abdomen.
Under this terrifying and powerful palm force, the three long needles seemed to be still, and it was completely difficult to advance even half an inch.
"Who sent you here!?" Chihuo's angry aura swept over him, causing the messenger disciple's seven orifices to bleed, causing him to kneel on the ground.
He had already taken precautions against such a sneak attack. It was normal for such rare things as spiritual porridge to be coveted by villains.
It's just that the person who comes is his fellow disciple, which is a bit unexpected.
A ferocious smile suddenly appeared on the pale face of the messenger disciple.
Elder Chihuo's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt something bad. The long needles in his hand, before they could be turned aside, suddenly melted on their own, mixed into his condensed palm power, and penetrated along with the spiritual energy. inside the body.
When the messenger disciple saw this, he laughed horribly, "This is the "Ghost Needle" specially made for you by the master! It dissolves when exposed to heat and disperses when touched..."
Elder Chihuo's face suddenly turned serious. When he was about to press him again, the messenger disciple killed himself first.
It seems that he is a dead soldier.
Elder Chihuo looked at the dead disciple, with a look of thought flashing in his eyes. The words "It's only for him"
"Made" made him very uneasy. The mastermind behind sending this person to assassinate him undoubtedly knew him well. He knew that when faced with such sneak attacks, he would habitually stop them with the power of the Red Fire Palm. He also knew that the palm of his hand would The blazing fire energy in the force...
Based on this, these three poisonous needles were specially created to dissolve when exposed to heat.
"Which villain is he!?"
Chi Huo's eyes were full of anger, he was angry that such a treacherous villain appeared around him, and he was ashamed that this woman was a thief in the villa.
Feeling the three auras scurrying like poisonous snakes in the meridians of his palms, Elder Chihuo subconsciously looked at the formation outside the shack.
In the current situation, turning on the formation and focusing on forcing poison is the best choice.
But then I thought that the spiritual porridge in the shack has been completed, and the last step is to boil it. At this moment, the environment inside is in an extremely stable and fragile state. Any disturbance will affect the spiritual porridge. You must not open the formation at will and disturb the peace. .
"Old guy, can you help me?"
At the moment when Chi Huo was hesitating and facing a dilemma, a vigorous and powerful voice suddenly came from outside the dining hall.
Elder Chihuo's face lit up, and he recognized that it was his long-time friend, Yao Gu "Cleaning Dust". Just as he was about to respond, he saw the dead messenger disciple on the ground out of the corner of his eye, and he couldn't help but flash a hint of caution.
At this time, Dichen should be attending Yao Xian's banquet with his colleagues from Yaogu in the square, waiting for all kinds of news to come back from the Xuanyou Mountain Range. His sudden appearance here will inevitably arouse people's suspicion.
Although he has many years of trust, the sneak attack he just encountered is also in front of him. In addition, the three poisonous needles specially made for him obviously cannot be done by those who are proficient in pharmacology.
This inevitably made him a little wary of Cleansing.
"No need. You smell too strong of medicine and you don't want to enter my restaurant. If you help me go to the law enforcement hall, you will be doing me a big favor."
When Dichen received Chi Huo's rejection, he sighed and shook his head at a short girl standing next to him, indicating that he had tried his best and could only help to this extent.
The short girl's delicate little hands tightly held the hem of her clothes, and her moist eyes were full of worry when she looked at the shack in the distance.
"Brother Ye Fan, please don't let anything happen to you."
