Six Paths Nightmare Palace

Chapter 2 Slaying the Demons in the Mountains
Qijian Mountain, a huge mountain like half a sword blade, the upper half is bare, with rare grass and trees, and there is almost no way to reach the peak, but the lower half is surrounded by overlapping mountain roads, and the place where you see is full of green colors.

At this moment, on the side of a small road in the middle of the giant mountain, beside a winding stream, there are two figures sitting cross-legged.

One was wearing a gray robe, a bamboo hat, wrinkled face, and looked like an old farmer; the other was dressed in green clothes, with eyebrows like swords, and a handsome face. He seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.

There is a light yellow futon under each of the two, and a huge boulder about Zhang Zhang is placed in the middle, with straight lines crossing each other carved on it, and there are some round black and white pieces, it is actually a huge chessboard.

The old man suddenly let out a long sigh, threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box, and said to the opposite young man with a wry smile: "I admire, I admire! The old man and the little friend have known each other here for more than half a month. They make friends with chess every day, but nine times out of ten they lose. Little friend's chess prowess is so high that this old man has never seen him in his life."

"The junior is just a little proficient in arithmetic, and the senior's chess skills are actually not weak." The young man raised his head from his contemplation and replied calmly.

"Haha, little friend is really humble. I'm ashamed to say it. Although this old man has known little friend for so many days, he has not asked his name yet. I would like to tell you one or two. I don't know what kind of family can raise such an amazing little friend. Chess strength." The old man said, twitching his beard with one hand.

"Senior, you are being polite. The junior's surname is Zhong and the name is Shen." The young man smiled slightly.

"bell!"

When the old man heard this, his face suddenly changed.

"That's right, it's the clock of the Zhong family in the 36th family of immortals!" Zhong Chen added slowly.

"The Zhong family! Not good!"

The old man's face was instantly pale and bloodless, he screamed, rolled on the ground, turned into a thick white fog, and disappeared into the ground.

"I still want to leave now, don't you think it's too late? This half month is wasted with you." The young man murmured, and slapped the huge stone chessboard in front of him with one hand.

"boom!"

The seemingly solid boulder burst open, and countless crystal filaments shot out from it, flashing and disappearing.

Loud rumbling noises followed, and within a radius of ten feet, a multicolored magic circle appeared on the ground, with spiritual lights flickering on its surface, and runes of various colors emerged from time to time.

"Ah" screamed.

A cloud of white mist shot out from the edge of the magic circle, and after a turn, it turned into an old man with a frightened face again.

"Impossible, if there is a restriction here, how could I not find it at all."

"Nothing is impossible. This set of demon trapping array has been improved by Zhong in advance. It is a double magic array. In addition to trapping enemies, once it is deployed, it will be more effective in hiding, unless you are in the alchemy stage With a cultivation level above, it would be hard to detect otherwise." The young man said lightly.

"Can improve the formation! Are you a formation master?" After hearing the young man's words, the old man was shocked and angry.

"Mu Kuijing, since you established your foundation, in order to transform into a human form, you have devoured a total of 27 households and 130 people within a hundred miles of Qijian Mountain within three years. My Zhong family has passed down a decree, and your crime is unforgivable. Beheaded on the spot." The young man said with a blank expression, turned over with one hand, and there was a pale white round jade plate in his hand, which he shook at the old man.

Suddenly, "chichi" sounded loudly!

White chains shot out from under the old man's feet, and under the frantic dance, they were instantly tied firmly.

"You want to catch me, dreaming! You are so young, even if you are a member of the Zhong family, how much mana do you have? Grow! Grow! Grow!" Seeing this, the old man aroused fierceness and yelled After a sound, his skin suddenly turned yellow and his body swelled up.

The old man's fangs were exposed, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a huge monster with a height of three or four feet, like a half dead tree, and its body cracked endlessly.

"You haven't returned to your body once in half a month, and you dare to act fiercely in front of Zhong!" Seeing this, Zhong Chen sneered, and threw the jade plate in his hand into the air. After swaying in the wind, the talisman turned into a half-foot-long jade ruler in the radiance, and swiped into the void of the nearby stream.

After a loud "boom", the whole brook trembled, and the stream rose into the sky as if it had come alive, turning into an extremely thick water column, and ruthlessly hit the monster in the magic circle.

After this monster named Mu Kuijing screamed, it felt that it could not resist the huge force reaching its body, its huge body trembled, and flew across like a sack for more than two feet, and at the same time, green blood was spurting wildly from its mouth, as if it could no longer Moved.

Seeing this, Zhong Chen didn't have any abnormal expression on his face, he muttered something, and waved the jade ruler in front of him again.

The sound of "嗞啦" was loud, and the stream water that was originally sprinkled in the magic circle turned into water droplets and shot up, instantly wrapping the jade ruler in his hand in the huge water mass.

"Blood Yuan Sword!"

The young man bit off the tip of his tongue, opened his mouth and sprayed a ball of blood into a blood mist onto the water ball.

An incredible scene appeared!

After the water ball inhaled the blood mist, it swayed against the wind, and turned into a blood-smeared giant sword about Zhang Zhang long, with water as the blade and a ruler as the handle, and bloody runes could be vaguely seen on the surface.

"go with!"

Zhong Chen's wrist trembled, and the giant sword flew out of his hand, turning into blood and slashing down at the monster on the ground.

"Character!"

Seeing the bloody slash, the monster that seemed to be lying on the ground gave a strange scream, and its body jumped up like a wooden stake.

"cut!"

Zhong Chen's face remained unchanged, and he shouted in a deep voice.

With a flash of blood, the oncoming green mist was cut in half, and after another blur, it instantly disappeared behind the monster in the sky.

"Plop!"The monster's figure froze, and its body turned into two pieces and fell from the air. A large amount of green blood sprayed down like a torrential rain, with a fishy smell.

Zhong Chen let out a long breath, raised his sleeve, and a large piece of silver powder flew out, pointing a finger towards the monster's corpse.

A muffled sound!
The silver powder turned into countless white flames and fell down. The huge body of the monster and the nearby green blood immediately ignited, and turned into a pile of black powder in a moment.

"Finally solved this problem! This time it took more than two months to even prepare for the journey, and I will never be able to accept such a time-consuming mission within the clan. But then again, if it weren't for the fact that this time I went out for that It’s a matter, the task is just to follow the road, otherwise, I would never have made this trip.” Zhong Chen relaxed his face and murmured twice.

Then he waved his hand in the air, and the disk that was suspended slowly fell down and was picked up by one of them, and the magic circle on the ground gradually disintegrated and disappeared in the dim light.

Then, the young man walked to the black ashes in a few steps, picked up a dead branch on the ground nearby, and after pulling it casually a few times, he picked up a two-inch light green spar and a half-damaged of Talismans.

"Unfortunately, this blood element sword talisman is worth ten pieces of spiritual jade. It is the most cost-effective one-time attack talisman in the clan. It is far from comparable to ordinary magic weapons. But after returning to the clan, this demon crystal It should also be able to exchange for seven or eight pieces of spiritual jade, plus the spiritual jade rewarded by this mission, it can be regarded as a small profit. This Mu Kui Jing has already established a great foundation, and his body is tyrannical. I'm afraid I won't be able to get it so easily if I go to a place with streams to amplify my Ten Thousand Levels of Blue Wave Skill." Zhong Chen weighed the green demon crystal in his hand, and said a few words to himself.

Then he put the two things into his sleeves, and then took out a blue paper crane, threw it into the nearby stream, and chanted a spell.

After a while, the brook hurled and gathered on the paper crane, turning into a misty blue water crane, with its wings spread out, about ten feet long.

The young man swayed, and jumped onto the water crane. With a slight boost of mana in his body, the water crane flew up the mountain carrying him.

"Mu Kuijing's body should be this tree."

Not long after, Zhong Chen stood in front of a half-withered and half-growth tree on the top of the mountain, and after walking around it a few times, he became affirmed.

He immediately raised his hands, and the silver powder flew out again, turning into billowing white flames and burning.

Something amazing happened.

The seemingly half-dead trees actually uttered strange babbling noises like children learning to speak in the flames. It lasted for a full cup of tea before they completely disappeared.

But at this time, the whole tree has been completely reduced to ashes.

The young man carefully inspected the roots of the trees, took out a small bottle, sprinkled some black liquid in the nearby soil, and finally showed a satisfied expression.

When Zhong Chen took the blue water crane to leave the top of the mountain again, and flew to the distant sky, under his seemingly calm face, he couldn't hide the slightest eagerness in his heart.

Three years have passed, so it should be done.

As long as he retrieves this object and refines it, he can improve his mana again, and advance to the foundation-building Dzogchen realm that is even better than Mu Kuijing.

At that time, he can officially step into the ranks of the upper class disciples of the Zhong family.
