Hearing that the Jiuyou Profound Sect wouldn't appear this time, Lee Xun couldn't help but be a little disappointed. But hearing the way Jiuyou Profound Sect was conducted, Lee Xun was not very worried, with such a reputation, it was likely that the people from the Jiuyou Profound Sect would not treat Qin Qing unfairly. However, when he heard that his Jiuyou Profound Sect was able to fight against the other four top-notch forces, Lee Xun was inevitably worried. His Jiuyou Profound Sect was simply too strong, when would he have the power to fight against them? The road to return to Qin Qing was still very long.
In the morning, Lee Xun rode alone towards the Qing Lian Mountain. As for Lei Jingjing, after thinking about it again and again, Lee Xun still allowed her to enter the Spatial Ring s. There were a lot of strong practitioners in Qing Lian Mountain, so Lee Xun did not want anyone to find out Lei Jingjing's identity and get chased by a group of people.
Along the way, there were a lot of people heading towards Qing Lian Mountain. Their strengths were different, the lowest were at the fifth stage, while the highest had Earth Rank. As for Heaven Rank experts, Lee Xun did not notice them.
In less than two hours, they had arrived at Qing Lian Mountain. At a glance, they saw many tents of varying sizes at the foot of the mountain. There were thousands of them.
Right now, Lee Xun was wearing a human skin mask, which was prepared specially for Lee Xun by this old man Baili Hong when he was at Swordsoul Island. His face was still young, but he had obviously changed his appearance. A genius would be jealous, so how could Baili Hong not know that he had meticulously prepared several human skin masks that were as thin as a cicada's wing for Lee Xun?
On the road to the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest, several Earth Rank Expert had sized him up. Lee Xun had also noticed that one of them was a Earth Rank Expert who had come here alone like him, wearing a human skin mask. In that case, Lee Xun was even more relieved, since it was so lively here, there were probably a lot of people who wanted to join in the fun, and hold onto the meat pie that had dropped from the heavens, and among these people, there were definitely some that had bad reputations, or had grudges with other people that might reveal their identity, so there were definitely more people who disguised themselves.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Lee Xun could clearly feel everyone's strength. There were more than 60 Earth Rank Peak, but he still could not find any traces of the Earth Rank Expert.
"Friend, how about coming over to our side?" A young lad came to Lee Xun's side and said with a smile.
Lee Xun saw that this person also had the strength of Earth Rank Peak, and similarly changed his appearance. Looking in the direction that this person was pointing, Lee Xun discovered that not far away from a withered tree, there were six people sitting. Four men and two women, three of them were in the Earth Rank Peak, three were in the middle Earth Rank, and all of them had changed their appearances.
Lee Xun thought that it was rather interesting, as though there was something behind it. "Hehe, after you."
Walking up to these people and sitting down, the young man said with a smile, "It's getting more and more lively these days. There are already more than a dozen people like us."
Lee Xun thought about it, then decided to not ask anything, and just smiled. The others did not have the intention to introduce themselves to Lee Xun.
Suddenly, Lee Xun saw someone familiar. It was Mo Family Ancestor Mo Qian.
"Everyone, there's something. Let's leave for a while."
"Sure." The young man laughed. The others didn't say anything.
When Lee Xun walked towards Mo Qian, Mo Qian also noticed him.
"Senior Mo."
"Lee Xun?" Although he had changed his appearance, Lee Xun's tone of voice did not change when he spoke to Mo Qian, so Mo Qian immediately recognized him, but he was still a little unsure.
"Hehe, senior Mo, are you satisfied with yesterday's matter?" Let's find a quiet place to talk. "
Hearing Lee Xun mention yesterday's matter, Mo Qian finally confirmed Lee Xun's identity, and laughed: "I'm satisfied, really satisfied. Lee Xun, don't call me senior, I don't dare to do it. "If you don't mind, just call him Brother Mo."
"Brother Mo." Lee Xun was not unreasonable either, and his impression of Mo Qian was not bad either.
The two of them went to a secluded place and sat down. Lee Xun smiled and said, "Brother Mo, you know that my experience is shallow, so there are a lot of questions in my stomach. Now that you have come, I will ask them all."
"Hehe, feel free to ask. As long as I know, I will definitely tell you everything."
"I just arrived a while ago, but as soon as I arrived, a Earth Rank Expert with a different face came to find me. He told me to sit together with those people who had also changed their appearances. However, in the past, it was rather strange and no one said anything. "
"Hur hur. It must be the first time you've been involved in such a treasure hunt. The people you're talking about are all people like you who don't want to reveal their identities. It was very possible that some people here had formed enmity with some other power here. No one knew when some people had taken the initiative to invite other people of the same rank and rank to gather together, their main purpose was to protect themselves. Even if their identities were exposed, they had to let their enemies see if there were any helpers among the people around them. You also know that many people in the Earth Rank Expert have weird temperaments. If he is satisfied with you, or is unable to see you, even if he does not know you, he could still help you. In this way, a hidden rule was gradually formed. Every time the matter of seizing a treasure occurred, some people who had changed their appearances would gather together. However, you cannot trust any of these people. It is also possible for me to stab you in the back. "
"Hehe, interesting. Oh right, where are the Heaven Rank Rankers s? Why haven't I seen any of them? "
"I don't know where they are. However, this was also an unspoken rule, as the Heaven Rank Rankers s normally would not stay in the crowd. Usually, they would find a place to hide by themselves. If they stayed in the crowd, it wouldn't be convenient for them to intervene. Most of the time, it didn't necessarily mean that those with great strength would necessarily succeed. What mattered was timing and luck. "The condition is that there will be a power that will not participate."
"You mean Jiuyou Profound Sect?" Lee Xun immediately guessed the meaning behind Mo Qian's words.
"Mn, you must know something about Jiuyou Profound Sect. This mysterious sect, to this day, no one knows where they actually are. However, whether it was a supreme expert or a young genius, almost every time they appeared, they would be able to firmly suppress the other party. When I first saw you, I thought you were someone from the Jiuyou Profound Sect. But since you were willing to help my Mo Family act, then that definitely wouldn't be it. The people from the Jiuyou Profound Sect would definitely not care about the matters of our small families. "
"Brother Mo, did you come this time to get that Bodhi Fruit too?" Lee Xun said worriedly.
"Brother, you must be joking. I don't mind my long life. He came to see if there were any old friends here, and to feel the battles among the Heaven Rank Rankers s. This was a rare opportunity. "What about you?"
"Hehe, I am also here to observe the battle of Heaven Rank Rankers, and as for the Bodhi Fruit, I do not dare to think about it, so I am not afraid of my brother's joke, even if it were to fall in front of me, I would not dare to pick it up." Lee Xun joked, but he was speaking the truth, if he dared to extend his hand to pick it up, he would probably be beaten into meat paste in an instant.
"That's right, I heard that Bodhi Fruit will mature in these three to four days, and once this Bodhi Fruit landed, it would be able to take root. If it wasn't for a fight and delay their growth, they probably would have matured in a few days. However, the real competition will definitely take place in the next two days, and those people will not wait until the Bodhi Fruit matures before going to fight.
Lee Xun nodded his head, thinking that it was reasonable and asked again: "I heard that the Flood Dragon attacked, what do you think? Is there hope for the human Heaven Rank Rankers? "
"I hope so. The strength of that Flood Dragon should undoubtedly be Heaven Rank Peak, which is also considered bad luck for this Flood Dragon. I estimate that the Flood Dragon should have been guarding this place for close to ten thousand years. This place wasn't too far away from the city. Normally, no one would go near this place to look for any Spiritual Treasure. This place belonged to the human realm, so other Demonic Beast would not easily be able to enter. Therefore, the human Heaven Rank Rankers would definitely think of a way to get rid of the Flood Dragon. Who knew how many people were still scheming and being schemed against. In short, there would definitely be many experts dying. There's one thing I want to remind you of, if anything happens, don't even think about it. Retreat for a few miles, just in case. Although everyone knows what I mean, not many people can actually do it. "
Lee Xun nodded, naturally understanding the reasoning behind it. The first reason was that curiosity could kill the cat, so no one wanted to get a closer look. The second reason was that they had the mindset that a pie had fallen from the sky. If they went too far, their luck would definitely not fall into their hands.
Mo Qian wanted to see if his old friends had come over. After all, he had not left his Wu'an City for several tens of years, so he naturally wanted to find some people to reminisce. Lee Xun herself had returned to the ranks of those who had disguised themselves, and upon his return, he saw another young man and an old man. The young man was only at the ninth step of cultivation, and although he had altered his appearance, unless he was a Heaven Rank Rankers, it was impossible to fake his age.
In the afternoon, the young lad who invited Lee Xun took out a table of sumptuous food, and two of them immediately began to eat without formalities. Seeing that, the others also took action, Lee Xun felt that the young man did not have any reason to poison him, furthermore, what he was doing was not an ordinary person, so he started to eat.
After the meal, the young man said: "Everyone, we have had our fill. We can't just sit back and do nothing. If we don't go today, we might not be able to participate tomorrow. "
At the suggestion of this young man, aside from himself and the other old and young ones who had arrived later, the rest of them headed deeper into the mountain. Not only them, but many others also headed deeper into the mountain in groups.
"Old Liu, let's go in as well. Maybe big sister is inside." The youth urged.
"Nonsense, is there anything you can go inside? Don't use Eldest Miss as a cover, she's not as naughty as you. Furthermore, Eldest Miss has Elder Bian by her side, so he won't let Eldest Miss in. "
Although it was just two sentences, Lee Xun could hear that the two of them were the same as him, they were just here to watch the show, and did not have any intentions of seizing the treasures.
"Friend, are you not interested in that Bodhi Fruit?" The old man called Elder Liu asked Lee Xun.
"How could I not be interested?" But even if you're interested, you still need to have that strength, no? "
The old man nodded with a smile, then said to the youth: "Did you hear that, the other party's Earth Rank Peak experts all said that they don't have the strength to go, so why should I protect you?" This old man was only at the Intermediate Earth Rank realm, that's why he said such a thing.
The youth made a face at the old man, then took out a blanket and lay down to sleep. The old man shook his head and closed his eyes in concentration.
About an hour later, "Roar!" A deafening roar resounded and many people ran out from Qing Lian Mountain as they heard the howls of ghosts and the howls of wolves. Just as Lee Xun was about to leave, he realized that the heaven shocking aura that he had released just now had disappeared. Elder Liu, who had the same thoughts as him, held the frightened youth and was about to flee when he stopped.
In just a few breaths of time, Lee Xun saw the young lad as well as another lady escaping towards him. When the two of them returned, they immediately sat down cross-legged and began recuperating. Both of them had pale faces and their breathing was extremely disorderly, indicating that they had sustained severe internal injuries. Both of them were covered in blood, it was unknown if it was his or someone else's. At this moment, many people began to retreat far away from Qing Lian Mountain.
Two hours later, the young man was the first to finish his treatment. Although his face was still pale, his breathing was much better.
"Friend, what's going on ahead? "What about the others?" Lee Xun asked.
"Sigh, we went together. Only the two of us came back alive. He didn't know why, but the people around him exploded one after another. She and I retreated rather quickly. It was just that our internal organs were injured by the shock of the aura. We would be alright after a few days of rest. The others just... "Sigh." The young lad was deeply moved, but it was unknown if it was for the dead or because he couldn't get the Bodhi Fruit.
After half an hour, the woman also woke up and said, "Everyone, I will take my leave first." With that, he left by himself.
The youngster shook his head and sighed again, "Sigh, I will leave as well." He cupped his hands towards Lee Xun and Elder Liu and left.
"Young master, let's go. Now you know how dangerous it is. All that had just passed here were the Earth Rank Expert s, but only two people managed to make it back alive. "
The teenager nodded reluctantly to Elder Liu. Elder Liu clasped his hands at Lee Xun and took his leave, bringing the young man with him as he left Qinglian Mountain.
Just as Lee Xun was considering whether he should leave or not, he saw Mo Qian bringing someone with him as he walked over.
"Lee Xun, this is my good friend for life, Wenyuan. Wenyuan, this is what I told you before, the number one genius in the history of our Sword Soul Continent, Lee Xun. "
Lee Xun heard Mo Qian introducing him without any hesitation in front of Wenyuan, and immediately understood that Wenyuan had a deep relationship with him.
"Brother Wen."
"Haha, little brother feels great." Wenyuan straightforwardly laughed.
"Lee Xun, I saw that everyone around you had left, so I brought an old thing like Wenyuan here to chat with you. I told him some things about you, but he didn't believe it.
Seeing that Wenyuan's imposing manner was much stronger than Mo Qian, Lee Xun became interested and said: "Elder brother Wen is interested, junior will naturally accompany you, but wait till now, alright? Let's find a place where no one can disturb us."
"Of course, of course, and there's no rush at this moment." Wenyuan hurriedly said.
