C70
This was a dark world, but there was no lack of life!
The earth was filled with deep crevices, and streams of water flowed without end. Ancient trees towered in the sky, and birds and beasts fought over each other as they cried out.
Heaven and Earth shared the Vast Expanse, and time seemed to stretch on for a long time!
Everyone couldn't help but sigh in amazement. It was like a world left behind from the ancient times, where a wild and desolate aura struck their faces!
Li Xingyun looked at all of this in a daze. It was a bit unreal, and the small animals he passed by occasionally were also things that he had never seen before on the continent.
Only after looking for a long time did he regain his senses. At this moment, he was in the middle of a forest!
The ancient trees blocked his line of sight, making everything look blurry. When he gazed into the distant sky, he could vaguely make out that he was probably in a mountain range!
After thinking for a while, he casually chose a direction to walk in.
Along the way, groups of small animals wearing golden armors walked past. However, they didn't seem to have any malicious intent towards Li Xingyun. It was as if they hadn't seen him at all!
He did not care much about this, bypassing those little fellows and leaving!
After walking for less than an incense's time, he suddenly stopped. Looking at the white flower before him, he revealed an excited look!
Seven Star Flower! High-grade spirit rank healing medicine, its nature was warm, and it could replenish Qi and blood. It was one of the more difficult healing medicine!
Seeing this medicinal plant, Li Xingyun knew that his spiritual force might be able to take another step forward here.
The advancement of Holy Spirit Force requires the accumulation of medicinal pills and ingredients. It can be said that he is equivalent to a peerless medicinal pill, using endless amounts of medicinal herbs to accumulate. Then, he can use this accumulated energy to do something even more amazing than pill refining!
How could he miss such a good opportunity?
Therefore, he directly picked the Seven Stars Flower and threw it into his mouth. Just like a cow chewing on a peony, he ate it in two or three bites!
Needless to say, the medicinal plants and flowers were much more delicious than the roots and trees. The fragrance was sweet and pleasing to the nose, and left him with an endless amount of aftertaste!
However, the moment he consumed the Seven Stars Flower, the surrounding small spirit beasts, who initially turned a blind eye to him, suddenly bared their teeth and glared at him!
"Roar!"
A three foot long Scaled Armor Spirit Beast glanced at Li Xingyun angrily, then rushed over with a roar!
Moreover, although these spirit beasts weren't large, their cultivation bases weren't low. Every one of them was actually at the level of a second grade spirit beast, not to mention that their speed was incomparably fast!
Sou sou ?
Sounds of something tearing through the air rang out. Very quickly, Li Xingyun was surrounded by dozens of Spiritual Beasts. They looked like they were looking at an intruder as they attempted to launch an attack!
Seeing this scene, Li Xingyun was a bit speechless. Didn't he just eat a stalk of elixir? How come nothing happened just now? Could it be that these fellows wouldn't allow him to touch every single one of the plants here?
Just as he couldn't figure it out, the Scaled Armor Spirit Beast had already attacked him!
These fellows were staring at him with hatred as if they were looking at their own lives. They were all rushing towards him, attacking him from all directions!
In response, he could only passively counterattack and repel the flying spirit beasts with a single punch!
He had originally thought of not harming these guys and just using a little bit of strength was enough, but he quickly discovered that he was wrong, moreover ridiculously wrong!
The defensive capabilities of these Scaled Armor Spirit Beasts were extremely strong. Not only were they fine when he punched them, but it also seemed to have aroused their fierceness. All of them rushed forward without caring for their lives!
Li Xingyun couldn't help knitting his brows when he saw this. His movements gradually became sharper. However, these things weren't scared at all. Every single one of them continued to charge at him.
Seeing this scene, he pondered for a moment. Then, using the Nine Heavenly Shadow Steps, he directly vanished, disappearing from where he stood!
It was obvious that this move was very practical. Those spirit beasts weren't high leveled, so how could they find Li Xingyun?
Seeing the person in front of them suddenly disappear, every single one of them gradually quieted down. After a long time, they all quieted down once again. They lined up and headed off into the distance!
Li Xingyun watched from the start, a little confused. Could it be that these guys were the rulers of the entire world?
Of course, this was impossible. However, he decided that it was better to clarify these matters first!
Thinking of this, he once again concealed his body and left in a different direction!
Half a day later, he walked out of the mountain range and arrived at an open area!
The only reason it was wide open was because when one reached the summit, it was like an endless mountain, but the peak of the mountain was flat, and this was the case here. There were hundreds of miles of flat plains, and on the summit, soft white clouds were touching.
At this moment, he was still in hiding, but he did see a few people. They must have been teleported from the city!
Li Xingyun wasn't too far away from them. He had picked some herbs when he saw these people, but the birds and beasts didn't attack them when they passed by.
He didn't understand this point very well. It was only after a long time did he realize something. After these people had harvested the medicinal herbs, they didn't consume them.
In order to prove this point, he followed behind those people!
The three of them were all wearing gray robes and had skulls engraved on their bodies. They did not resemble the forces of the South Ridge. Most likely, they were the second group that had entered!
"Big Bro, that little girl we met earlier was really pretty. Her pure appearance made people's hearts itch!"
At this moment, one of the three men said in a wretched tone!
Hearing this, one of the men in front of him said proudly, "Don't worry, I've already done something to her body. Let's find her later, hehe!"
"Boss is still wise. When the time comes, are you afraid that she won't submit to his superb skills?"
"Of course. Big Brother has dominated the scene for dozens of years, and with just a few words, he could probably make that little girl blush to her ears. She's so beautiful that she looks like she's about to drop. Ahaha ?"
Li Xingyun, who was hanging behind them, couldn't help but frown when he heard these filthy words. He only wanted to finish them off first.
However, in the end, he endured it and secretly decided that once he knew what he wanted to know, he would deal with these disasters as soon as possible!
However, he didn't know how to make these guys eat spirit herbs!
"Perhaps, eating something else is also possible?" He could not help but think about it!
It was definitely a boring task to follow them. Li Xingyun was no exception. He had hidden himself in the dark. How could these brash fellows have discovered him? Furthermore, the spirit beasts did not seem to attack them!
This situation continued all the way until nightfall. Only then did these fellows stop!
"Ol 'Three, go and hunt a prey and fill up first. I feel like our target is not far away, we'll only have the strength to do the program after we've eaten, won't we?"
The man in the lead said to the two people behind him with a lewd smile. Soon, the three brothers started to move. Hunting and lighting fires, the division of labor was clear. Obviously, they were also veterans of the forest!
Perhaps the atmosphere of safety had let them relax their vigilance, but after the three of them reorganized themselves, they began to feast and drink to their heart's content!
Seeing this scene, Li Xingyun couldn't help but be alert!
As long as these guys ate the things in this world, even if they weren't spiritual herbs, they would probably still have some effect, right?
Soon, the three of them finished eating. Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any spirit beasts here!
After the three brothers finished eating, their boss waved his hand and said excitedly, "Brothers, let's eat and drink to our heart's content! Let the show begin!"
After saying that, the few of them began to wail and howl as they walked towards the front!
Seeing this, Li Xingyun frowned and followed him!
Soon enough, he followed them through a dense forest and arrived at a canyon. He could vaguely see that there was a fire burning in the canyon!
The three of them were very careful as well. They carefully moved forward as if they were afraid of alerting their prey!
Before long, they arrived at the source of the flame.
She only saw a small figure sitting alone under a huge rock. There was a huge fire burning in front of her. She didn't know if it was out of fear or what was going on. She had been curled up and shivering, not even noticing their approach!
Li Xingyun was stunned when he saw the figure flickering under the light, then he revealed a knowing smile!
"Hahahaha ?" "Little sister, what's wrong? It seems like you're very scared. It's alright, your three elder brothers are here to drive out the cold!"
Suddenly, a burly man came out from the darkness, laughing lewdly!
The girl was alarmed by the voice and quickly stood up. She looked at the person with some fear!
At this moment, the three men were standing at the edge of the fire. The third brother glanced at the young girl and said, "Damn it, that enchanting girl isn't here. She scared us to death!"
"Yeah, to think that she would spoil my plans in the day. I really want to do it with her!"
"That's right, damn it, his cultivation base is too high. Otherwise, that girl would be called Hun'er!"
The three of them spoke as if no one else was present, completely ignoring the girl!
The young girl was currently dressed in azure clothes, looking somewhat miserable. Her face was dirty, but even so, it couldn't hide her exquisite face!
The beauty of the girl made him feel pity, especially in this dark night. His frail body made some of the more lustful ghosts push their lust to the limit!
The young girl looked at them with a bit of fear, saying timidly, "You, you guys ?" What to do? Let me tell you, I have a guard. He's here, and I'll fight all of you over ten times! "
She tried her best to get closer to the boulder, a short sword in her hand. Despite her strength at the late stage of the Spirit Opening Realm, she had no experience with enemies!
"Little sister, don't worry, we're all good people, we're here to send you warmth. As for your guards, don't worry, we'll be your guards from now on, no matter if it's day or night, we'll make you satisfied to the point of wanting to die, hehe ?"
The girl had never seen such a scene before. At this moment, she was already on the verge of tears!
She hesitated for a moment and then cried out in grievance, "Wuu ?" "Save me ?"
Hearing this shout, the few men became even more excited and laughed lewdly, "Go ahead and scream, no one cares if you scream until your throat breaks!"
