Immortal and Demon Cultivation

Chapter 670 Poison

The trees in southern Xinjiang are mainly blackwood, pine, and hemlock. These trees have one characteristic: they are tenacious and live a long time. If you see a big tree with three or five people hugging each other in the middle-earth, some ignorant people will be in awe. He thought he was a tree god, but in the hundreds of thousands of mountains in southern Xinjiang, not to mention a big tree with three or five people hugging each other, even a big tree with a dozen people hugging each other is not uncommon.

Big trees have intertwined roots and lush branches and leaves. Some big trees obviously grow halfway up the mountain. As a result, countless tree roots can extend into the valley. The tree roots are also wrapped with dense thorns and vines, blocking the sky and the sun. Standing in the valley, even if it is bright sunshine You can't even see the sun above your head.

Tens of millions of years of fallen leaves have accumulated layer after layer. When you step on it, the musty smell of rotting branches and leaves is almost nauseating. This is almost the most terrifying primitive jungle in the world, even more terrifying than the black forest in the north.

Although the place where Ye Xiaochuan and others are located is located on the edge of the western section of Shiwanda Mountain, the topography is not much different from that in the depths of southern Xinjiang, because it is close to Death Lake and is filled with the unique rainbow seven-color miasma of Death Lake. Slowly eroding, the mountains hundreds of miles away are more dangerous than other places in southern Xinjiang.

Nature is a very wonderful thing. The external environment can change the nature of living beings, not just their appearance.

For example, if a creature, or a human being, is placed in a dark cave to live in a dark cave, and after a few generations of reproduction, the creature's eyes will severely deteriorate, and after a thousand years, it may become another brand new creature, or a completely new creature. It's a monster.

The trees, flowers and plants, as well as some animals and beasts that were eroded by the miasma day and night, became highly poisonous after adapting to the environment here.

For example, Ye Xiaochuan just caught a poisonous snake disguised as a rattan. It was only as thick as a finger, but if it was bitten, Ye Xiaochuan didn't think he could eat happily in the future.

The bright, beautiful and colorful flower looked extremely delicate, but when it was cut with a knife, a green liquid immediately secreted from the broken part of the petals. Ye Xiaochuan pinched the head of the poisonous snake in his hand and asked the poisonous snake to open its mouth. , and then dropped a few drops of the green liquid flowing out of the petals into the venomous snake's mouth. In less than a moment, the venomous snake froze.

Yun Qiyou watched Ye Xiaochuan doing such boring things from the side. In fact, she was a little shocked in her heart. This was only the area eroded by the miasma on the periphery of the Dead Lake. The miasma poisonous gas was still very thin. She really didn't know what was inside the Dead Lake. How poisonous are the animals and plants that grow in the strong miasma?

No wonder that for thousands of years, countless highly skilled cultivators have gone to the Death Lake to explore and practice. As a result, many people still don’t know whether they are alive or dead. The name of the forbidden land on earth is indeed not justified.

Ye Xiaochuan kicked the poisonous snake at his feet and said: "Even the poisonous snakes have been poisoned to death. This ghost place is really not for humans. I really can't figure out why the remnants of Gui Xuanzong want to live here for a year." It would be strange not to poison a few disciples."

Yun Qiyou said calmly: "Do you think they have a choice? They can survive by hiding here, but there is only a dead end if they leave here."

Ye Xiaochuan suddenly nodded in agreement and said: "That's true. Speaking of the later generations of disciples of Guixuanzong, they are really useless. When Ghost King Ye Cha was alive, the disciples of Guixuanzong were so high-spirited. However, he died only eight hundred years ago. Xuanzong has gone from being the number one sect of the Demon Sect in the past to having to hide in the deep mountains and old forests filled with miasma to temporarily save his life. Ten years ago, there seemed to be ghost Xuanzong disciples in Duantian Cliff, but I heard there were only a few dozen left. Disciple, the leader is an old man named Gui Nu. I don’t know if this old man is dead now.”

Yun Qiyou said: "Why do you care about this? It's better to find a way quickly. Senior brother said Qiming Mountain is nearby, so be careful."

Ye Xiaochuan curled his lips and said: "Senior Sister Yun, why do you want to wade into this muddy water? Sun Yao obviously wanted to harm me. I had already rejected it, but you stepped in, and both of us ended up having to do it." Take the risk of being a scout, just in case..."

Yun Qiyou said calmly: "With me here, nothing will happen to you."

This is looking down on people. Ye Xiaochuan groaned and said: "You are looking down on people, aren't you? They say that if you don't see them for three days, you will look at them with admiration. Do you think I don't have the ability to protect myself? I have not been idle in the past few years, and my cultivation has been advancing by leaps and bounds. I'm making rapid progress, and one hundred and eighty big men can't even get close to me. I may still be a little wary of other demon sects, but I really don't pay attention to the Guixuan Sect, which is still in name only. Believe it or not, I can do it alone. You can destroy Ghost Xuanzong, don’t you believe me? Do you think I’m bragging?”

Annoyed by Ye Xiaochuan's questions, Yun Qiyou said, "If you say one more nonsense, do you believe I will cut out your tongue?"

Ye Xiaochuan immediately shut up. This woman would never make a joke for no reason. She would really cut off her own tongue.

The two people were flying at low altitude in the mountains. They had to pass through the vines hanging from the tree trunks and be wary of possible dangers, so the flying speed was not very fast.

Already dozens of miles away from the large army, we arrived at the peak that was probably Qiming Mountain marked by Gu Jianchi. This mountain is not tall and cannot be compared with the dangerous Cangyun Mountain. It is only a thousand feet tall. The mountain was so gray that even the trees on the mountain seemed lifeless.

After wandering at the foot of the mountain for a long time, Ye Xiaochuan scratched his head and said, "Elder brother's intelligence source is wrong. There is no sign of human activity in this place. It is completely virgin forest, without even a single human footprint. Let’s go back.”

Yun Qiyou waved his hand and said, "This is Qiming Mountain."

Ye Xiaochuan said: "How do you know?"

Yun Qiyou pointed to the two stone tablets in front of him and said, "Don't you know the characters? You taught me this character, the number seven in ancient characters."

Ye Xiaochuan smiled. He had already seen the two stone tablets. Each stone tablet was as tall as a person, but there was only one word engraved on it.

The stone tablet on the left is engraved with "seven".

The stone tablet on the right is engraved with "Ming".

What's interesting is that these two stone tablets are both carved with ancient characters. The seven characters are the ancient number seven that Yun Qiyou saw in the ancestral hall of his ancestors.

Ye Xiaochuan said: "I really don't want to find this place. I can guess what the elder brother has in mind. Gui Xuanzong is already in dire straits. They are all hiding here and pretending to be turtles. Although we Gui Xuanzong brought great disaster to our Cangyun Sect eight hundred years ago. Seeing that all those people are dead, I can't bear to see that they are still causing trouble for Gui Xuanzong. "

Yun Qiyou glanced at him and said, "Do you know that the purpose of Senior Brother's trip is Guixuan Sect?"

Ye Xiaochuan shrugged and said: "We could have easily avoided Qiming Mountain, but Senior Brother took us directly here. Fools all know that it is nonsense to go around thousands of miles to avoid the eyes and ears of the Demon Cult. I guess last night The people from Guixuanzong knew that we were nearby, and everyone hid. We all ran to the gate, and the disciples of Guixuanzong didn't come out either. The meaning was obvious, they didn't intend to conflict with us. Since they gave in, we Just turn a blind eye, killing people is not a pleasant thing. "
