By the quiet trickling stream, the beautiful Yan Ruyu was sitting on a huge earth dragon, her brows furrowed and her heart filled with anxiety.
The man named Chen Fan has become an indelible hatred in her heart. She hates him deeply, and this hatred has driven her into an almost crazy state. His appearance made her deeply uneasy, unable to even sleep peacefully, and she was always shrouded in the shadow of fear.
In the process of searching for Chen Fan, her only support came from eleven warriors from the Yan family. Although these people had certain strength, she understood that their strength alone was not enough for her to truly relax and bravely search for Chen Fan.
Her heart was filled with anxiety and worry. On the one hand, she was unable to explain Mendel's death to her family. On the other hand, she was tense because she was afraid that Chen Fan's sudden appearance would bring an unforeseen disaster to her.
While she was deep in thought, a dazzling red light suddenly lit up five miles ahead and shot into the sky.
Seeing this scene, Yan Ruyu suddenly became energetic, and hope ignited in her heart. She threw the flare in her hand into the air without hesitation, and at the same time, a hazy red light bloomed above her head, dazzling. Her fellow warriors also became excited and geared up.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, three figures flew over from a distance. The leader had a long beard and an indifferent smile on his lips. He quickly came to Yan Ruyu and laughed loudly: "Yu'er, Mendel Where is Master?"
"Third Uncle, Master Mendel is dead." Yan Ruyu explained bravely: "We met a little thief on the road. The little thief only had the cultivation level of Qi Entrainment, but he didn't know what method to use to cut Master Mendel into pieces. Head."
Yan Dongchen's expression changed, and his expression darkened in vain, "Have you got the things on Mendel's body?"
Yan Ruyu shook her head, "They were also searched by that kid."
A flash of anger flashed in Yan Dongchen's eyes. He clenched his fists and suppressed the anger in his heart, "Then why are you still alive?"
Yan Ruyu and the people behind her looked embarrassed. They looked at each other, and finally Yan Ruyu replied: "We originally wanted to take back Master Mendel's relics, but the little thief's cultivation level is low, but he is extremely cunning. , we were finally escaped by him.”
Yan Dongchen took a deep breath, glared at Yan Ruyu, then turned to look at the person behind her, and said coldly: "Are you all trash? Can't even deal with a little thief in the Qi-inducing realm?"
When the people behind him heard this, their bodies suddenly trembled. They quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look into Yan Dongchen's eyes.
Yan Dongchen cursed in a low voice, his face so gloomy that he could drip water, and his furrowed brows revealed his anger. He snorted coldly and said in a stern tone: "We have received reliable information that Mendel stole a fragment of the 'Heaven Gate' from his master Kumu. Now, his master Kumu is looking for Mendel everywhere, just to Retrieve this crucial residual picture. It is said that the 'God Realm' that the 'Tianmen' leads to contains spiritual-level or even holy-level martial arts, which are priceless. I just hurried here with two offerings, just for You got this incomplete picture. You didn’t think highly of him! What a fool!”
Yan Dongchen's eyes were filled with raging anger, and it seemed that he was about to explode at any time. He gritted his teeth and continued: "Do you know, if Deadwood is allowed to find Mendel before us, our Yan family will forever lose the opportunity to enter the divine realm."
Yan Dongchen became angrier as he spoke, with strong dissatisfaction in his eyes. His two worshippers stood aside with their heads lowered, not daring to speak. They understood that Yan Dongchen's anger at this moment was not pretended, but came from his heart. They knew that this operation was too important for them to miss.
"What?" Yan Ruyu's pretty face was full of horror.
"" Mendel left Yaowang Valley with the Yan family to seek protection from the Merchant Alliance because he was afraid of being hunted by Dead Tree. Do you think he is really not coveting the wealth of the Yan family? It's just for your own safety. "
Yan Dongchen frowned and his face became more and more gloomy. After a moment of silence, he shouted in a low voice: "Tell me the whole thing in detail, don't miss any details. The boy should still be in the dark forest, and we must find him as soon as possible. The treasure map is very important to our Yan family. , we must get it no matter what!"
Yan Ruyu also realized the seriousness of the matter. She told the other details truthfully without omitting any details.
"It's so stupid!" Yan Dongchen couldn't help but cursed again, the anger in his heart uncontrollable. He sternly scolded: "You didn't continue to chase? That kid only had the cultivation level of Qi Entrainment. No matter what method he used to kill Mendel, he must have paid a heavy price. Maybe he was injured too. It’s very serious. As long as you catch up, you can definitely kill him easily! How stupid!”
Yan Dongchen couldn't understand why his niece made such a stupid mistake, which made him very annoyed. If it weren't for Yan Ruyu's identity, Yan Dongchen would have slapped her to death.
"I was afraid of greater losses, so..." Yan Ruyu lowered her head in shame.
"That kid only has the cultivation level of Qi-inducing realm, and you are actually afraid of him?" Yan Dongchen was so angry that he stamped his feet, filled with resentment in his heart. "You've really wasted so much of the family's resources!" He shouted loudly, "What are you still doing? Why don't you show me the way quickly! You! You! You!"
He pointed at the men, his eyes filled with anger. The subordinate was intimidated by Yan Dongchen's momentum and did not dare to refute, so he could only obey.
"Drive Dilong back to the Merchant Alliance along a safe route, and the rest of the people will continue searching with me!" Yan Dongchen issued the order, and the rest of his men immediately took action. They knew that Yan Dongchen was extremely angry at this time, so they had to go all out. If they did not find the boy named Chen Fan, they, a group of low-status people, would never get good results.
Yan Dongchen's eyes were firm. He firmly believed that there was still a chance to find the boy and regain the treasure map. But you must seize the time to avoid long nights and many dreams, which may change later.
…
Chen Fan chased for two days, but didn't even see a ghost. He couldn't help but start to doubt whether he was doing the right thing. In such an aimless pursuit, he worried that he was just doing useless work and wasting time and energy.
The cool moonlight shone in the forest, Chen Fan leaned on an ancient tree, frowned, and temporarily gave up the idea of continuing to chase. He needs to rethink his strategy and see if there is a more effective way.
Taking off the backpack from Mendel from behind, Chen Fan opened it and looked at the contents in a daze. There is a volume of poison scripture in the backpack, which records in detail the refining methods and usage methods of various poisons. For Chen Fan, this is a rare and precious information.
In addition, there were several bottles of poison refined by Mendel in the backpack, as well as a waxy yellow fragment with two mountain peaks drawn on it. Chen Fan had looked at it for the past two days, but he didn't see anything. I didn't take it to heart.
In addition, there are two mortal-level martial arts books called "Wuguang Shield" and "Xuanyin Jue". These two martial arts are also of high value to Chen Fan. If he can master them skillfully, his strength will be significantly improved.
Among the two martial arts, the practice of "Xuan Yin Jue" requires the collection of Xuanyin Qi. Chen Fan pondered for two days and didn't know where to look for Xuanyin Qi. He also didn't pay attention to it.
However, Chen Fan discovered that the practice of "Black Light Shield" is different from other martial arts. It does not require any props or assistance. It can be practiced smoothly by simply moving the vitality according to the muscle diagram. Considering this convenience, Chen Fan decided to take time to practice the "Black Light Shield" to improve his defense capabilities.
Chen Fan closed his eyes and memorized the contents of the secret book with his heart, imprinting the "Wuguang Shield" cultivation method deeply in his mind. After memorizing the secrets, he decided to start practicing immediately.
After putting away his backpack again, Chen Fan looked around, quietly climbed up the ancient tree behind him, and hid his body among the dense branches and leaves of the ancient tree.
Chen Fan adjusted his body posture to ensure that he remained comfortable during the practice. He closed his eyes, held his breath and concentrated on the instructions in the secret book, and began to guide the energy in his body to run along specific tendons. During this process, he concentrated on controlling the flow of vitality, always paying attention to the subtle changes brought about by the flow of vitality in his veins.
As his practice deepened, Chen Fan gradually felt the regularity of the flow of vitality in his body, and the aura around him became more and more stable. At a certain moment, a faint dark light began to appear around him, indicating that the "Black Light Shield" martial skill had begun to take effect.
"Peng!"
In the process of practicing the "Wuguang Shield", Chen Fan gradually mastered the operation method of vitality. Suddenly, a hazy black light emerged from his body. These black lights were like substance and had strong flexibility. They slowly pushed the branches and leaves where he was hiding to one side, forming a thin film that enveloped his entire body.
Seeing the effect of the black light forming a defensive shield, Chen Fan suddenly felt more at ease. He was convinced that his cultivation was in the right direction, so he speeded up the movement of his vitality again. As the vitality speed increased, the black light overflowing from his body also gradually increased, from half a meter at the beginning to one meter, which was exactly the same as when Mendel used the "Black Light Shield".
After a long period of practice, Chen Fan has been able to complete the vitality movement of the six great heavens in his body. In the process, he gradually adjusted his breathing and the flow of vitality, making the defensive effect of the "Black Light Shield" more stable.
After a long time, Chen Fan gently exhaled a breath of turbid air and ended this round of practice. He slowly opened his eyes and was very satisfied with the results of his cultivation. Chen Fan finally successfully mastered the "Black Light Shield" martial skill and achieved significant defensive effects.
Chen Fan came back from his practice, looked up at the sky, and found that the moon had gradually faded away, and the sky in the east began to turn fish-belly white, as if it would be dawn soon. However, he was not in a hurry to leave immediately, but decided to use the short time before dawn to once again try to practice a martial art - madness.
Chen Fan adjusted his breathing, calmed down, and then mobilized the vitality in his body to flow towards his left arm. After the vitality touched the first acupuncture point, a thought suddenly occurred in his mind, and the vitality suddenly started to swirl with the cyclone in the acupuncture point. After three breaths, Chen Fan's thoughts changed again, and the vitality suddenly flowed in the opposite direction.
At this moment, a tearing tingling sensation suddenly came from that muscle! This is a unique phenomenon when practicing "madness".
Chen Fan gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain in his arm, and continued to activate his vitality. The muscles in his left arm contracted, and the arm gradually became thinner. At the same time, white mist slowly overflowed from his left arm.
This white mist contains negative emotions such as fear, violence and despair, and has the strange power to confuse people's hearts. These negative emotions come from the acupuncture points in the left arm, and are temporarily trapped in the white mist. Once you fight with someone, these negative emotions can fly directly out of your arms, disrupting your opponent's mind and giving you a head start in the battle.
The sun is high and the sun is shining brightly. Under the cover of ancient branches and leaves, Chen Fan was sweating profusely, his eyes as sharp as knives, staring at his left arm. In the process of practicing madness, he not only had to endure physical pain, but also resisted mental torture.
As the white mist gradually filled in, his left arm was completely shrouded in it. Wisps of evil power wrapped around his hands like demons, causing him to have irritable and unhappy thoughts. These evil forces are the negative effects of mad martial arts. If they cannot be properly controlled, they may affect Chen Fan's mind and cause him to fall into a mad state.
Chen Fan knows very well that in order to successfully master the madness martial arts, he must learn to control these evil forces. He tried to adjust his breathing, calm down, and suppress these violent thoughts with his strong willpower.
"Hoo ho!"
Chen Fan breathed heavily, trying hard to control his inner desires. After repeated attempts, he finally succeeded in withdrawing the essence from the arm. The essence was collected into the lower abdomen bit by bit, and the arm slowly returned to normal. The misty white mist wrapped around his arms followed his tendons and returned to his acupuncture points until it completely disappeared.
Leaning weakly against the tree trunk, Chen Fan looked pale and felt complicated. Although he has mastered the madness martial arts, he knows that this martial arts is a double-edged sword. Madness can activate all kinds of negative forces contained in his acupuncture points, providing him with powerful strength in battle. However, these negative forces will also disturb his mind, and may also make him lose his mind when killing enemies.
Crazy martial arts are incredibly powerful, but also extremely dangerous. Chen Fan understands that when using this martial art, he must act cautiously and stay awake at all times to avoid being controlled by negative emotions. So he looked for a balance, ensuring his own safety while exerting the power of madness.
Suddenly, a "swish, swish" sound piercing the void came from a distance. Chen Fan frowned and was keenly aware of the abnormality. He quietly controlled the aura on his body, and even the essence in his body stopped flowing. He silently stared below, preparing to deal with possible emergencies.
Not long after, seven figures in gray clothes and pale masks suddenly stopped beside the ancient tree beneath him. They seemed to be waiting for something and were wary of each other. On the shoulders of these seven figures in gray clothes, six were embroidered with a silver star logo, and one was embroidered with a silver crescent moon logo.
Chen Fan was secretly surprised. Judging from the attire and behavior of these people, they obviously came from some mysterious organization. Chen Fan didn't know their purpose, but his intuition told him that these uninvited guests were not soft persimmons.
He held his breath and carefully observed the situation under the tree, trying to find some clues.
"Buzz buzz!" A strange sound wave came from the forest ahead, and the sound wave seemed to become a special communication signal. Under the ancient tree, there was a tall, thin man in gray clothes with a silver crescent moon symbol embroidered on his shoulders. His eyes under the mask were shining with a cold and evil light. He listened quietly for five seconds and said coldly: "In the small valley twenty miles away, the secret messenger has already targeted them. Follow me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of seven people hurried past and quickly disappeared into the forest.
It was ten breaths after the seven people left that Chen Fan emerged from the leaves. He looked sullenly and hesitated for a moment. Although he knew that following this group of mysterious people would be extremely risky, he decided to follow them quietly in order to understand their purpose.
Chen Fan jumped down from the tree and touched it carefully, trying not to make any sound to avoid being discovered by people in front of him.
