Dao Fruit

To the north of Xingjing is the Dajie Mountains.

This mountain range has many aliases, and the locals call it Jie Mountain. The reason is that south of this mountain, you can reach the Guanzhong boundary of Dali in a day or two, which is the political center of the Central Plains and the important place in Gyeonggi Province. .

But to the north of this mountain, there is an endless vast grassland. There are many tribes living on the grassland. They divide and join together to live in pursuit of water and grass. This is the world of the grassland people.

The grassland tribes and the Central Plains dynasties have been at war all year round. Looking back on history, even for thousands of years, as the Central Plains dynasties changed, the grassland deserts also changed hands several times.

According to legend, the earliest lord of the grassland was of the same race as the lord of the Central Plains. Now, with the changes of the times and the vicissitudes of the sea, he has experienced the rise of the Dongshan tribe, and has experienced several tribes from the north moving south. After all the tribes sing, I will appear on the stage. Expeditions on the grassland, either prosperity or decline, interpret the joys and sorrows.

But no matter how it changes, one thing remains unchanged, that is, wars often occur at the junction of the grassland and the Central Plains. The people who live here often have a miserable fate. Over time, the border area gradually becomes deserted.

Mountains such as Dajie Mountain, with continuous high mountains that separate the two worlds, are natural dangers. Ordinary people have long been gone, leaving only a few garrisons. The soldiers only opened a few mountain roads and built one or two watchtowers and The beacon tower patrols the dangerous passes and will not really go deep into the mountains and forests.

This mountain forest is therefore inaccessible and is almost untouched by humans. It has dense trees and lush branches and leaves, and is haunted by ferocious beasts. According to old legends, there is even a big demon located in it, but ordinary people cannot see it.

swish swish...

A shadow shuttled through the forest, hitting the branches, leaves and grass along the way, making noises and startling many birds and animals.

"My Linghui Soul was actually captured by someone! It's really unbelievable! Although most of my consciousness is concentrated on Yuanying, the other six souls are just residual consciousness, but the strength, essence, and heroic soul are just that. Linghui Soul He controls the mind and perception, is keen and wise, and can seek advantages and avoid disadvantages even if only his instincts remain.”

This figure was faintly red. Although it was moving through the grass, it exuded an ethereal and erratic feeling.

"When I first refined Linghui and manifested it outside, I specially copied the master's 'Guarding the Mind at a Glance'. If you can understand people's hearts and use them, even if you can't defeat the enemy, you shouldn't be caught easily, eh? That person who suppresses Linghui The madman of the soul is actually preaching! However, the spiritual wisdom soul is blocked by him and it is difficult to truly feel it. At most, he can only touch it vaguely, but he can also feel a little profound and keep it in his heart, brewing and cultivating it. , and when you get there, you may be able to find a blessing in disguise..."

Boom!

Just as the figure was thinking, a series of loud sounds erupted around him, and the trees scattered all over the mountain suddenly seemed to come to life, twisting and changing one by one, stretching out branches and vines, winding and undulating, and stabbing out. Like dexterous pythons, they charged towards the red figure slowly but quickly.

Uh-huh! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!

The branches and vines roared through the air. The branches, which were originally fragile and could be broken by a single pull, now seemed to be made of fine iron. They rubbed against the air and scattered a few sparks on the surface!

The red figure responded immediately, his figure erratic. Move up and down, duck between branches when there is no chance, and then climb higher. Soaring into the sky from the dense forest, waves of waves erupted from his body, as red as blood, and the air around him was directly shattered, disappearing invisible!

"Old demon Shushan! Stop it! Don't you recognize me?"

What spread out at the same time as the wave was a powerful thought. In conjunction with the scarlet wave, not only the air was completely shattered, it seemed that even the spirit could be shattered!

As he paused in the air, the appearance of the red figure became clear. It was a translucent light and shadow, and the outline of it could be vaguely distinguished as a dog.

Inside it, there is a soul shadow flowing rapidly, enveloping a ball of chaotic air. The air ball is misty and changeable, and it is faintly about to be divided into three. The soul shadow is constantly absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world, replenishing it into the air ball, and maintaining it. Not collapsed.

Below, the branches and vines rushing from the forest suddenly stopped, and a hoarse, dry voice came from the forest——

"Tengu, it's you? Why do you look like this? Where is your physical body? Even the three souls that have been refined and integrated into the Tao Fetus are about to reappear. You are going to fall directly into two realms!"

The tone of this voice was cold and hard, and the words he spoke were full of surprise, but there was no emotion in the voice. It was like the sound made when two pieces of wood collide and rub together.

Dry and scratchy.

In the air, the red dog shadow roared angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! This Fangbu Continent is in a time of great conflict, and the trend of the old and new revolutions may be derived. Therefore, I tried to take action, but I was hit by a force from the Zuo Army Governor's Mansion. This is how the trap of worshiping the emperor ended up like this!”

"The Governor's Mansion of the Zuo Army?" the dry voice replied, "How did you come to fight with the people of the Governor's Mansion of the Zuo Army? My children and grandchildren told me some time ago that several of the enshrined people of the Governor's Mansion of the Zuo Army went to How can you meet the living Buddha who is encircling and suppressing them? Could it be said that you have joined forces with them?"

The red dog shadow raised his head slightly: "What does this have to do with it? Anyway, in this continent, our strength is not enough. Instead of wasting energy and time to accumulate strength, it is better to try to muddy the water and wait for the Shinto and Taoist sects to return. There are secular dynasties, and they all fight in chaos, and their vitality is greatly damaged. Maybe there will be a chance to make a profit!"

"You take it for granted. Even if the parties are injured in a melee, they can sharpen themselves and increase their prestige. How can we seize the opportunity to reap the fruits of victory?"

The dry voice obviously disagreed. It rejected it first, and then changed the subject: "You were injured this time, and you must have wanted to take advantage of it. As a result, after you took action, the situation was out of control and you were chased by others, right? You lied to me that you fell into a trap. How could I not know your temper? Look at your current appearance. Even the seven souls are scattered. You must have used the last life-saving "The law, extremely embarrassed, because you wanted to take advantage of others, but misjudged the opponent's strength!"

"I was just confused for a while, and I took action in advance! If I had found the right time, I would never be like this!" The roar of the red dog shadow suddenly increased, "What's more, although I fled here, my layout in the southwest has not collapsed, and I even used it to confuse those people. They thought I had lost my foundation, but they didn't know that I still had capable subordinates who were in charge of the situation in the southwest!"

"Subordinates who benefited?" The dry voice showed doubt.

"Yes, you will never guess the origin of this subordinate." The dog shadow restrained his roar and seemed a little proud.

The dry voice said: "Your subordinates, why should I guess? But I still want to remind you not to underestimate the enemy too much."

"You..." The dog shadow was about to say, and suddenly a red light rose on his body, and his whole body twisted and gathered, as if it was about to collapse!

At the same time, a flash of light suddenly flashed across the southern sky, followed by ripples rushing over. Wherever it passed, the spiritual energy fluctuated violently!

The calm world was originally like a waveless lake, but suddenly the world changed color, and the spiritual energy became violent, as if someone threw a huge rock into the lake, causing a storm!

"Not good! The spiritual energy is inexplicably violent. My Nascent Soul has been severely damaged. How can I bear it? Old demon, let me go in and hide quickly. Share some vitality and blood with me. After I get through the difficulties, I will find a way to reshape my body!"

In the violent spiritual energy, the red shadows scattered and drifted. A gust of wind blew, and the rich spiritual energy contained in the wind impacted its body, twisting it and rapidly weakening it.

"I really can't do anything to you." The dry voice sighed, and then most of the mountain range shook, and a series of gravel sounds came from the mountainside, and the grass and trees fell, and the soil turned over, revealing a crack nearly a hundred feet long.

The crack gradually opened, and the inside was pitch black, but it exuded an unimaginable strong blood and blood smoke. Even the violent spiritual energy, affected by this blood and blood, had to retreat three hundred feet!

Whoosh!

The red dog shadow did not stop when it saw the crack, and turned into a long rainbow and sank directly into it.

Boom!

The crack closed, leaving only a mess on the hillside. Apart from that, it was as if nothing had happened.

At the mountain pass a few miles away, the two soldiers in charge of guarding looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Earthquakes have become more frequent recently..."

………………

Boom!

As Dajie Mountain returned to silence, there was no power to stop the violent spiritual energy. This spiritual energy spread all over the sky and rushed to the southeast, northwest and northeast.

To the north, it rushed into the grassland, to the south, it stepped into Jiannan, to the west, it headed towards the Western Region, and to the east, it went straight to the Eastern Capital.

In the center of this chaotic spiritual energy was a mound. Judging from its appearance, it was no different from an ordinary mound, located in a dense forest.

At this moment, the earth mound was shaking at a very fast speed, emitting waves. Once the waves touched the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, they gave off a strong breath, causing the spiritual energy to be violent and rushing in all directions!

Humans who have not practiced may not feel much about the changes in spiritual energy, but many creatures roaming in nature feel it at the first moment, and then become restless.

The earth mound shook more and more rapidly, and the ripples spread more and more densely, and finally...

Boom!

With the sound of explosion, the earth mound exploded, revealing a dark hole, but a man flew out of it, his body was tattered, and his exposed skin was covered with dirt, which was filthier than a beggar.

He roared while in mid-air, then raised one hand, lifted a copper furnace as high as a person above his head, and then fell down.

Boom!

After falling to the ground, the man exhaled a long breath, and there was a crackling sound all over his body, as if he was frying beans in an iron pan, and the vigorous momentum broke out of his body and soared into the sky!

"This time when I explored the Danzu Cave, my cultivation level increased dramatically by chance, but it caused such a commotion. I'm afraid I'll have a headache for a while."
