After the immortal disappeared

"Yes, we share the view with Snail Toad while standing in the house. Whatever it sees, we can also see." Dong Rui patted the window, "These windows can observe the three directions behind, so there are no blind spots on all sides. "

He Lingchuan's story is interesting. He has been chasing Snail Toad for more than two months, but this is the first time he has entered the "Snail House". So this is how the magic weapons of ancient immortals were used?

"That's not right. Didn't Snail Toad swallow up a barn full of prunella vulgaris in Zhitian Township?" He Lingchuan looked around, "This house is too small, it doesn't seem like it can hold so many things."

"You underestimated the methods of the immortals in the past." Dong Rui chuckled, "Who told you that there is only one small room in 'Snail House'? There are several other large and small ones behind it. It was Xi Yunhe's men who used to handle prey in it. "

As he spoke, Snail Toad had already plunged into the ground to start tonight's journey.

Today, there is heavy rainfall in Lingxu City, which brings a lot of convenience to its movements. There was only a burst of heavy rain near Pianxiang Villa, but heavy rain continued for more than half an hour in the central and northern parts of Lingxu City, and the ground was soaked.

When the soil is moist, snail toads can travel long distances underground.

Otherwise, if you take Dong Rui on a temporary run, you won't be able to run very far, only a few miles at most.

There was nothing to see in the darkness of the ground, except that the Snail Toad moved very fast, even a horse was far inferior to it, and it didn't have to turn around, which was in stark contrast to the slow movement on the ground.

The treasures of the ancient immortals are so magical that it is difficult for people today to imagine and understand them.

He Lingchuan thought, what would happen if the spiritual energy in the world was replenished? Will the good old days come back?

In the past three thousand years, practitioners have been looking forward to it, but they can't wait for such a grand scene.

Yes, how can you wait just by "waiting"?

He realized that he had not been in a daze for long before something changed outside the window - the snail toad emerged from the ground.

The two left the hut and climbed out of the volute. The clouds are thick tonight, the skylight is very weak, and the forest is pitch black, with only the grass and trees rustling in the wind.

Occasionally, an owl crows, sometimes far and sometimes near.

This is the forest outside Xu Mountain, closer to Tianji Peak; the Tiangong Guard Camp is stationed under Tianshu Peak, far away from the two of them.

The mountains were hidden in the darkness, only their outlines showing. And deep in the mountain is where the most powerful power in the world lies. Even though he was in the mountains and wild fields, with only the wind and light rain all around, Dong Rui still lowered his voice subconsciously: "As you requested, this location is only 800 feet away from Tianji Peak."

Ahead is the territory of Xushan Mountain, and Snail Toad cannot approach lightly.

It shrank when it floated to the ground. Dong Rui put it into his bag and carried it behind his back.

"Why are you so quiet, are you a thief?" He Lingchuan patted the mirror on his chest, "Xu Ju, I entered from the forest south of Tianji Peak, where should we meet?"

"To the south? Hmm -" Diju's voice immediately sounded, "Look for me in the white cave next to the Ganoderma lucidum forest."

When Da Huanzong was still the Immortal Sect, countless spiritual grasses were planted in the mountains, and the Ganoderma lucidum forest was just the name of one of the fairy fields. But after the Middle Ages, spiritual grass gradually became rarer and can only be found in high altitude areas. Lingzhi cannot be found at such a height as Xu Mountain, and the Ganoderma lucidum forest has become a fixed check-in point for tourists.

He Lingchuan had been to Tianji Peak twice, and he roughly knew where the Ganoderma lucidum forest was. Even worse, there was a soul-capturing mirror patting his chest and telling him he knew the way. It could help him navigate.

The two of them put on masks and walked into the mountains in the dark, taking advantage of the night.

The mask was specially made by Master Songyang himself, and it can block out the prying eyes of spiritual thoughts.

A quarter of an hour later.

Diju asked: "Are you here yet?"

"not yet."

After another quarter of an hour, Diju asked again: "Are you there yet?"

"Ahem, not yet."

Wei Ju was puzzled: "Why is it so slow? Even a snail has crawled over!"

"It seems that we are walking in the wrong direction." The first two times we came here, we walked on the mountains. This time we had to climb through the valley. Looking up the mountain and walking down the mountain are two different things.

What's more, there is no moon tonight, and the ravines all look the same, like a natural ghost wall.

Dong Rui was complaining: "I told you to take the left path, but you didn't believe it!"

Juju: "..."

At this moment, He Lingchuan noticed out of the corner of his eye that there was a streak of fire floating halfway up the mountain.

It seemed to be a big fire monster, more than three feet tall.

Miraculously, although it was surrounded by flames, the surrounding forest trees did not catch fire, and even the leaves were not blackened.

This is the power that protects the mountains and forests. As long as it doesn't want to, it will not burn the mountains and destroy the forests.

He Lingchuan said quickly: "You have a clone that just passed halfway up the mountain and is right above us."

The big fire monster immediately stopped and looked left and right like a human being, and then saw He Lingchuan. Then, it slid down the mountain wall and stopped in front of the two of them.

"Follow me." An angry voice came from the burning man, "You have been going around for a long time, but this is not the boundary of Xushan Mountain at all!"

Otherwise, it would know immediately as soon as the two entered the mountain.

He Lingchuan shrugged and followed it with Dong Rui.

With the fire monster leading the way, the traveling speed was several times faster. This is the clone that Diaju releases to patrol at night to prevent his own perception from being blinded occasionally. Xushan is closed to the outside world at night. One of the responsibilities of the local mountain is to drive away or capture intruders.

Without its support, it would be even more difficult for He Lingchuan to sneak up the mountain at night.

Passing several short peaks, the fire monster asked the two of them to move forward carefully, because there were Tiangong camp guards stationed on the peaks and they would look down as a matter of routine.

Obviously Tiangong did not dare to completely entrust the defense work to Juju.

They walked like this for another two-quarters of an hour. After the two of them were covered with dew and their feet were covered with moss and mud, and then turned a narrow road, the front suddenly became clear——

What a wide valley.

The Ganoderma lucidum forest has arrived.

Two thousand years ago, Ganoderma lucidum and various fairy grasses grew here, and ginseng dolls and fairy mushrooms ran around everywhere in the valley.

Now, this is a wasteland with nothing except weeds, fungi and a few crickets.

There is a cave on the side of the mountain, and the rock at the door is white.

The fire monster retreated here and went to patrol elsewhere. He Lingchuan and Dong Rui continued to move forward and sneaked into the cave against the wall.

For humans, this is a dead cave, with no more than 200 steps to the bottom, but there are countless cracks on the mountain wall.

As soon as He Lingchuan walked in, he saw more than a dozen balls of fire "squeezing" out of the cracks in the rock. After landing, they were put back together again to form a huge rock fire monster.

What it transformed today was a semi-human form, that is, the upper body was like a human being, and below the waist was a ball of fire.

He Lingchuan turned to Dong Rui and said, "This is Xushan Shanze, Ju Ju."

In fact, many tourists wandering around Xushan also come because of the legend of the rock fire monster, but only a few people are lucky enough to see it. Lord Juju is not interested in living people who cannot eat.

What He Lingchuan found most interesting was that no matter whether there were one or two visitors, it was always a grand event when he appeared, and he had to take the lead in terms of momentum.

Being so far away, Dong Rui also felt that the air around him was very hot, and the hair on his forehead was curling.

He Lingchuan introduced to Wei Ju: "This is my friend and my helper."

Now that the two sides were face to face, Wei Ju satirized him: "We are already cooperating, but you still don't want to show me your true face?" Previously, this guy threw his clone into the Soul Country without showing his face, and just kept talking to him from a distance; today we made an appointment to meet, and he actually He's still wearing a mask, he's really as cowardly as a mouse.

The masks of these two guys also have the ability to isolate spiritual thoughts, and they cannot see through.

He Lingchuan smiled and said: "This is mutual protection!"

Di Ju snorted: "Have you calculated the position of the array eye?"

"Of course, aren't you here for a field test?"

"Follow me." Di Ju turned around and walked into the cave.

Under the light of the fire around it, the two discovered that there was a large gap deep in the cave. It was not even a path, so they had to use their hands and feet.

Neither of them is fat, so they can barely squeeze in.

Fortunately, after squeezing in, the gap between the rocks became larger, and both of them had good cultivation. They climbed the rock and grabbed their roots, climbing more than fifty feet, and jumped into a platform.

From there, there is a ready-made tourist plank road to go up.

Of course, the Tiangong camp guards would occasionally come to inspect, but with local snakes covering the area, He Lingchuan could not meet them even once.

Soon, they abandoned the main road and climbed to the top of the wild mountain opposite Tianji Peak.

In order to avoid being too conspicuous, the figure of the Juju was actually compressed to half a person's height, and the flames all over his body were restrained, looking like lit charcoal. Only the joints and a few fulcrums on the neck still had red light shining through, while the other parts looked like they had been burned by fire. The scorched rocks are pitch black.

In this way, it hid in the dense woods and shrubs, and the camp guards on the opposite mountain peak could not see it.

Of course, being so sneaky on your own territory is all because of the two stowaways. Diju urged: "Start quickly!"

This guy has been in the mountains for thousands of years, and now he's in a hurry? He Lingchuan ignored it and said to Dong Rui: "I will give you some directions. If there is a star tonight, it should fly to Tianxuan Star." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and said, "Put the bat puppet up."

Dong Rui recognized the nine stars of the Big Dipper, but the clouds were so thick tonight and there was nothing on the sky. He could only rely on He Lingchuan's identification. Immediately, his shoulders sank, and the bat demon fluttered its wings and flew up.

He Lingchuan originally hoped that it would remain so inconspicuous in size and shape. It had just rained, and there were already a lot of bats flying low in Xushan. The demons were among them and did not attract anyone's attention.

But even if there was still some light in the sky, after the demon puppet flew ten feet up, even if He Lingchuan used his eyesight enough, he would not be able to see it anymore.

It's so small, and it's still black!

"Get a size bigger!"

When the demon puppet became the size of a dog, He Lingchuan was finally able to see it in the night sky.

"Go left...up...right, no, go left!"

"Fly down twenty feet and take a look."

Dong Rui: "There's nothing." It's just an empty sky.

"Why are you so anxious?" He Lingchuan followed the formula given by Dean Xu Shichu and silently calculated in his mind, "A little further to the left, yes, keep going left! No, we are about to hit the mountain."

Xu Shichu really believed in people and handed the same style to Sun Fuling two days ago to take it back and give it to He Lingchuan.
