Chapter 26 [Marriage]
Ge Xian quickly passed the wooden bridge. As he walked across it, his spiritual consciousness was fully unfolded. He sensed something in the river under the bridge that made him feel palpitated. He couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't risk crossing the river.
Fortunately, when he passed the wooden bridge, the unknown beings in the river didn't seem to be interested in him at all. They probably didn't infringe on their territory, so no accidents happened.
As soon as he reached the opposite land, he looked back and found that the fish demon guards did not dare to chase after him. They even raised their hands with some luck and started dancing. The other fish demon villagers did the same, sending him away like a plague god. Sent away.
Although Ge Xian was a little angry, he still decided not to care about these uncivilized tribal races. Besides, he had killed all their elite guards, and he didn't know if he would be unable to survive in the future. Regarding this, he didn't care. How much guilt will there be? After all, those elite fish monsters are very cruel.
This time it was a dense jungle. Compared with the kind of woods we encountered before, it was completely different.
This place is more like a tropical rainforest, absolutely dense, and the trees are very tall. Some trees are as tall as a person with just one leaf. There are also many towering trees that reach into the clouds.
"What kind of ghost place is in the enchantment of Immortal Cave? A monk who can create such a magnificent enchantment must not be an ordinary monk. How can there be such a powerful big shot here? Could it be that our Cangluo County is a place where dragons and tigers are hidden? "Ge Xian was confused again. As he went on adventures, there were more mysteries about the truth of the world. Before one was solved, more mysteries appeared.
Boom...
A huge noise came, startling all kinds of birds in the dense jungle on the shore. Ge Xian looked over and was speechless. It turned out that the fish monsters on the other side had cut off the wooden bridge, and now they directly cut his The way back was cut off.
"Ah wu ah wu..." The fish demons cheered again, regardless of gender, old or young, even the mother and daughter of the fish demon clan whom he had spared before showed a deep hatred for him.
Sure enough, the fish demon clan is a race that only holds grudges but not gratitude, and Ge Xian doesn't care. At this point, the last bit of guilt he felt towards the fish demon clan has disappeared.
In the eyes of the fish demon tribe, Ge Xian dove into the jungle and disappeared.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...
The fish monsters cheered again, and the little girl was lifted high by her parents, as if they were heroes.
boom!
A huge shadow suddenly emerged from the river. At first it was only a few meters high, then it was more than ten meters tall, and finally it revealed its head as tall as a mountain. At this time, the river in front of the fish demon villagers was occupied by a huge creature.
The monster revealed a pair of ruthless and cold eyes, looking directly at these ant-like fish monsters. Many of them collapsed directly on the ground, trembling, and kept kowtowing.
Unfortunately, all this did not satisfy or forgive the monster. Instead, it opened its bloody mouth and sucked it in. Suddenly, the fish demon villagers, young and old, were continuously sucked into the monster's mouth.
The fish demon parents holding their daughter cried and begged for mercy, but soon the fish demon man was sucked away first, while the woman tried hard to hold back the pain and tried to escape with her daughter, but it was in vain.
The attraction of the unknown monster was extremely powerful. They barely used their last strength to walk five or six meters away. Then with a whooshing sound, they were sucked away and flew away, screaming in terror, along with other fish monster villagers. Devoured by monsters.
After the fish demon village was in a mess and almost no surviving fish demons could be seen, the monster gave up and slowly sank into the river. There were many simple and rough clothes floating on the surface of the river, all from those fish demons just now. villagers.
As for Ge Xian, after diving into the jungle, he realized that not only the trees and flowers had become very tall, but also almost all the living insects and beasts he encountered were very large.
He saw with his own eyes a buffalo-sized longhorned beetle that overturned an ant the size of a calf, then bit it into two pieces and returned proudly with its opponent's body.
Then, he saw a huge bird. If he guessed correctly, it should be a raptor like a falcon. When its wings were spread out, it was several meters long. Its long beak was half a meter long. There was a big hole, and rocks two to three meters in diameter were kicked away like marbles.
"It's almost like a prehistoric world, but you don't think the oxygen content here is very high? Wait...the aura here..." Ge Xian finally realized. No wonder he felt that the air here was extremely comfortable to breathe. It turned out that the air here was very comfortable. The proportion of spiritual energy is comparable to the degree of spiritual energy released by low-grade spiritual stones. It is no wonder that these flowers, trees, insects, beasts and birds of prey can grow so tall.
He carefully walked through the jungle. Although he was not afraid of these tall insect beasts now, he still didn't want to get into a useless battle.
"So sleepy..." Ge Xian thought about it after entering the enchantment of the Immortal Cave. It had been close to six hours. He had been in high tension for so long and was already exhausted.
He had to look for a place where he could take shelter and rest for a while, and finally found a rat's nest.
Although this rat is two or three times larger than the ones outside, its timid character has not changed, and it still pokes its head out to see if there are any natural enemies.
After confirming that there was none, he quickly got out and started looking for food nearby.
Ge Xian took this opportunity to get into its nest, which was extremely spacious and even comparable to the three-bedroom and two-living house outside.
It was just not very clean. Ge Xian had to hold his breath and clean it until it was habitable. Then he used some materials in the lair to build a simple bed. Then he sat cross-legged and meditated, and then took out the low-grade spiritual stone. Start practicing.
Although there are not many low-grade spiritual stones, it can still last for a few more days. Besides, he also has a higher-grade green spiritual stone seized from the fish demon.
About half an hour later, there was a sound of thin ropes coming from the entrance of the cave. A group of big furry guys got in with some fear but did not want to give up. Then they saw Ge Xian occupying the magpie's nest.
"Zhizhi..." The mouse was a little timid. Although he was very big, he still didn't dare to attack directly.
Ge Xian opened his eyes and glared at it. Immediately, the mouse kept retreating, its buttocks were flattened by the wall of the nest, its two forelimbs and small hands seemed to have nowhere to rest, and there was a look of resignation in its eyes.
"Borrow it for a while, and I'll leave later. Don't disturb me during this period, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." Ge Xian didn't care whether it understood or not, it was just a threat anyway.
This mouse was actually quite smart, and seemed to understand a little bit. It carefully walked to the entrance of the cave, took some of the various fruits it had picked up, and took them into the cave one by one. Then it fawned over a few seemingly quite The fresh fruit was placed in front of Ge Xian, then he crawled to the other side of the cave and began to eat his own food.
Ge Xian looked at it and felt that this beast was quite humane and much easier to get along with than the fish demon.
Picking up a fruit, I scanned it with my spiritual consciousness. There was nothing unusual. I simply rubbed it and then took a bite. A sweet fragrance filled my heart and spleen. It was actually delicious.
"Not bad, you are quite discerning." Ge Xian praised, and the mouse seemed to really understand. After receiving the praise, it raised its neck and let out a grunt of satisfaction.
Ge Xian was indeed hungry. He couldn't achieve Bigu yet, so he ate all these fruits until he was seven to eight times full, which was enough.
After eating this fruit, he immediately recovered his energy quickly, which made him impressed. It seemed that these fruits were not ordinary and had the effect of restoring energy.
Ge Xian continued to run Xiaoyao Jue, healing his wounds and resting at the same time. He even fell asleep unintentionally.
In a daze, he seemed to see a golden seed breaking out of the ground, taking root and sprouting. When he wanted to reach out and touch it, he suddenly found that the newly grown sprout had disappeared. The next second, he was horrified to find that It actually grew on his heart, which made him wake up suddenly.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He touched his heart and found that everything was normal. If he felt anything, it was that his cultivation seemed to have reached a bottleneck again.
"How could it be possible? It hasn't been long since I was promoted to the third level of Xiaoyao Jue. Why do I feel like I'm about to break through again? Isn't this...too fast?" Ge Xian was a little unbelievable, but this feeling is unmistakable. Cultivating Taoism People are very sensitive to this state of mind and almost never make mistakes.
However, Ge Xian did not try to attack the realm at this time. Entering the next stage, the current environment is still very dangerous. If he rushes to attack, it will be dangerous if there is too much movement and attracts some fierce monsters. For this reason, he forced I suppressed the impulse and re-stabilized the loose barrier of realm. Remember this feeling and wait until I get out.
"Squeak..." The mouse's cry seemed a little restless, as if it had encountered something scary, and it was not where it was, and seemed to have gone out to look for food again.
Ge Xian's spiritual consciousness quickly swept over, and soon "saw" such a scene about ten meters away from the entrance of the cave. The mouse hid more than a dozen strange fruits in its hair, but on its own On the way home, I was blocked by a big centipede.
This centipede is naturally huge, almost ten meters in length. Each section of its body is as thick as a bucket, especially the pair of pincers, which are one meter long.
It seemed that the mouse couldn't be beaten and could only dodge left and right, but its body was very flexible, although its body was fat, which made Ge Xian look at him with admiration.
The centipede kept attacking the mouse, but always failed, making it even more aggressive. It suddenly stood up, its neck-like section formed an inverted hook shape with its body, opened its mouth, and sprayed out a ball of blue mist.
The mouse was unable to dodge and was sprayed. Suddenly, its agility was greatly reduced, and its running speed also slowed down. It seemed that it was drunk and began to stagger around.
Ge Xian immediately interrupted his practice and quickly picked up eight stones with his ten fingers. Under his consciousness, the spiritual power quickly followed the meridians of his two arms to his fingers and poured into the stones.
Flying out and jumping up, Ge Xian saw the centipede hissing fiercely and a pair of pincers attacking the mouse's neck from top to bottom.
Whoosh...
The sound of breaking through the air was endless, and eight stones burst out from Gexian's hand one after another like a shooting star chasing the moon, turning into eight streams of light and hitting the joints of the centipede's body.
puff……
Several dull sounds appeared, and the centipede suddenly twisted its body in pain, no longer caring about attacking the mouse.
However, this guy was also rough-skinned and thick-bodied. He was hit by eight stones from Ge Xian, but he only felt pain and no obvious scars.
It turned its head and saw Ge Xian, its two tentacles whipping the ground wildly, creating a ravine on the ground.
Then, he abandoned the mouse and chased Ge Xian to bite him like crazy.
"Brother Mouse, you retreat first, I will block it for you..." Ge Xian dealt with it while shouting to the mouse. Suddenly, he found that there was no trace of the mouse around. Looking at the hole over there, there was still a mouse tail left. Halfway through, this guy Qian immediately abandoned Ge Xian and ran for his life.
What a bastard!
Ge Xian couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to lure the centipede away. He kept throwing stones in his hand, making the centipede hiss, but the centipede's armor was too thick, and the stones could not break through its defense, leaving Ge Xian helpless.
The animals and plants in this jungle have probably been baptized by spiritual energy for a long time, and have already turned into monsters. They cannot be ignored. With Ge Xian's current strength, I am afraid it is still very difficult.
Fortunately, the centipede's eyesight was very poor. After Gexian restrained his aura, he circled around to get rid of the centipede, and then rushed back to the nest.
When he entered the nest, he felt unhappy. He saw the fat mouse huddled in the corner. He pointed at it and scolded it. The mouse squeaked in frustration for a while, and then placed the bunch of fruits it had hidden before on the crocodile tree as if it were a treasure. In front of the immortal.
Ge Xian smelled it and felt that the fruit seemed to be of much better quality than the ones he had eaten before, with a spiritual aroma.
Fortunately, this time the fruit has a shell, which is very similar to a lychee. Peeling off the outer hard shell reveals the pink flesh inside, which has a strong aroma.
Ge Xian couldn't help but eat two-thirds, and then threw the remaining third back to the mouse.
The mouse was overjoyed, picked up the fruit, bit open the shell, and swallowed it all.
Ge Xian felt that the flesh and juice of the fruit had caused some incredible changes in his body. He originally planned to leave, but he felt that something had changed in his body, so he decided to stay a little longer.
He stayed there for more than ten hours, as if he was drunk. When Ge Xian woke up again, he suddenly found that his cultivation barrier had disappeared, and was replaced by the spiritual power in his Dantian. Almost exhausted, he could absorb more spiritual energy.
Ge Xian immediately took out the few low-grade spiritual stones he had, and then started to run the exercises according to the fourth-level exercises formula in his memory, replenishing his spiritual power while continuing to improve his cultivation level.
This time the technique was running so smoothly that Ge Xian was a little puzzled. It seemed that after these few days of breathing practice, his physique had undergone a qualitative transformation, and his talent had begun to truly show.
After calculating the time, Ge Xian was a little anxious. It had been more than twenty-four hours since he had been here. If he continued to be trapped here, he would be considered absent from work in reality.
As a last resort, Ge Xian had to end his practice and stood up to leave.
"Zhizhi..." When Ge Xian was about to leave the mouse's nest, he found the fat mouse coming to him, seemingly reluctant to leave.
"Brother Mouse, you and I have been getting along for the past few days. I hope you can have some good times in the future. Let's say goodbye." Ge Xian knew that it could understand some human words, so he treated it like a human being.
The fat rat immediately shook its head, made a popping sound again, and circled around Ge Xian.
"What are you doing? I want to leave here. Do you want to go on an adventure with me?" Ge Xian asked in confusion.
Fat Rat actually nodded, really wanting to follow Ge Xian.
"No, no, my adventure is full of dangers. If I can't take care of myself, how can I take care of you?" Ge Xian shook his head and refused.
The fat rat immediately stood up on two feet unconvinced, supporting his fat body, and slapped his chest with his forelimbs, making a humming sound.
"Can you take care of yourself? Pull him down. He was so ungrateful and patronizing before and ran away." Ge Xian teased.
Fat Rat patted the ground in anger, and then made a very determined look, as if to express that he would never do it again next time.
Ge Xian suddenly realized that he seemed to be able to understand what Fat Rat was trying to express. Could it be that he could communicate with animals or monsters?
"It still doesn't work. You are too big and your target is too obvious." Ge Xian continued to shake his head.
When the fat rat heard this, he rolled his eyes and hummed a few times. His body continued to shrink, and finally became only the size of Ge Xian's palm. He suddenly jumped onto his shoulder and squatted there.
"Yo? You can also transform? Not bad." Ge Xian had to accept such a partner, and it seemed determined to follow him.
One person and one mouse left the nest. Before leaving, Ge Xian took away all the food that Fat Rat had collected, that he could eat or that was valuable, and then headed towards the depths of the jungle.
Ge Xian felt that he might not be able to get out of the jungle relying on Junzi. When he was worried, he saw the fat rat calling on his shoulder. He used his spiritual sense to sense it and looked up in surprise.
Although it is covered by clouds and fog, it seems that there is an end. That is the exit, rather than going straight forward.
The nearest mountain peak to him was dozens of miles away, so Ge Xian simply let Fat Rat lead the way and followed it, quickly traveling through the jungle.
Fat Rat's sense of smell and sense of crisis are very strong. With its guidance, Ge Xian found that he was much more efficient and safer, and he avoided dangerous monsters and beasts several times.
Seeing the mountain peak right in front of him, Ge Xian ran away excitedly, with Fat Rat chasing after him.
Boom...
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, like an earthquake, and then a large number of birds and animals seemed to be driven away, scrambling desperately towards Gexian from the direction of the mountain.
"Tide of beasts?" Thinking of this, Ge Xian's scalp went numb for a while and he immediately turned his head forcibly. At this time, the fat rat was not that strong anymore. Ge Xian grabbed it and stuffed it into his pocket. Then the spiritual power condensed in the meridians of both legs and he ran wildly.
