After the war, everything was in chaos.
The monks' joy lasted only for a moment.
Although Three-Eyed Stone Ape was defeated again, this victory could not cover up the tragic casualties of the team that broke into the mountain.
Everyone fell silent quickly.
Hundreds of the Purple Mansion plus a larger number of high-level Qi Refining, led by ten ferrymen with profound cultivation and rich experience. When they first entered Jade Dragon Mountain Range, many monks were full of confidence.
With such a powerful team and the existence of Jade Dragon Oath, why worry about not being able to break through this natural chasm?
The trip in the previous few days was indeed as smooth as they imagined.
Ordinary Demon Beast wouldn't dare to mess with him at all.
However, everyone's confidence was completely shattered today.
That unknown Great Demon's blow cost the mountain-crossing team thirty-nine people killed and hundreds more injured!
More than half the casualties!
Among the dead were three ferrymen with the Purple Mansion cultivation, and three others suffered injuries of varying severity.
No amount of killing Three-Eyed Stone Ape can make up for such a loss!
The morale in the team was extremely low.
Some injured monks stared at the ferryman leading the team with resentful eyes, making the atmosphere tense again.
"I'm sorry, we don't want such an accident to happen."
The ferryman leading the team, whose surname is Xu and whose cultivation is high-level Purple Mansion, said expressionlessly, "For the rest of the trip, it is up to you to decide whether to continue walking or return the same way."
In fact, this the cultivator surnamed Xu's heart is far from as calm as it appears.
His heart was bleeding too.
The cultivator surnamed Xu led the team back and forth on this road many times, and it was always safe and without incident.
But the danger in Jade Dragon Mountain is not predictable.
Just like the previously terrifying Great Demon, who would have thought that they would run into such a being?
Mountain Crossing Society's losses were also heavy!
But the cultivator surnamed Xu has a clear conscience.
Because before entering the mountain, he had made the risks clear to everyone.
If you encounter it, you can only admit that you are unlucky!
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
A monk gritted his teeth and asked, "Master Xu, if we continue walking, will we encounter Great Demon like this again?"
"I can't guarantee that."
The cultivator surnamed Xu said calmly, "Jade Dragon Oath can restrain Great Demon and Demon King, but there is no guarantee that we will not be attacked by high-level Demon Race."
Great Demon and Demon King do not talk about benevolence, justice and morality. Although Jade Dragon Oath has a strong binding effect, as long as they are shameless enough, they can always find reasons to bypass it.
Such as accidental injuries and accidental hits.
It is impossible for the Nascent Soul True Immortals from the four major sects to go to trouble Demon Kings for this "trivial matter".
So you can only admit that you are unlucky!
Everyone actually understood this truth, but they were unwilling to do so and fell into silence again.
The cultivator surnamed Xu sighed and continued, "Let's rest for three days. Three days should be enough for you to make a decision. I have no objection to whether you continue to move forward or return the same way."
There are many injured monks, and it is not a wise choice to continue on the journey or return now.
No one disputes this.
Although the hearts of the team inevitably collapsed, everyone could still maintain a superficial unity in the face of the cruel reality.
Clean the battlefield to save the dead souls, reorganize the team, and then find a place to camp and rest.
Night falls again Jade Dragon Mountain Range.
Darkness enveloped the land silently, flooding the temporary camp in the valley.
Wang Chen hung Obsidian Lamp on the tent.
It was already past meal time, but he didn't have the slightest appetite, and I believe the other monks were the same.
Although they just meet by chance, they gather together for the same purpose, and there is no friendship between them.
Maybe it's the rabbit's death and the fox's sorrow.
Seeing so many dead and injured monks of the same level, Wang Chen's mind could not help but be severely impacted.
Below Golden Core, all are ants!
This encounter during the day made him deeply understand the true meaning of this sentence.
Wang Chen took out a jar of spiritual wine from his storage bag and drank it slowly.
Suddenly his tent moved, and a graceful figure flashed in.
Wang Chen was stunned for a moment.
This uninvited guest is naturally Li Yi'an, and only she would break into Wang Chen's tent directly like this.
The problem is that tonight Li Yi'an actually changed into a plain white dress!
As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, be filial.
This female cultivator originally had a stunning appearance. Now she has changed out of men's clothing and put on a white dress. Her figure, temperament and even appearance have improved by a whole level!
She sat down next to Wang Chen with bright eyes. "Fellow Daoist Wang, it's not good to drink alone."
Although the battle during the day was brutal, Li Yi'an only suffered minor injuries and his face was slightly pale.
Wang Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head.
What he drank was not boring wine.
It's just that humans are not grass and trees, so no one can be ruthless. Even Nascent Soul True Immortal can't cut off love and nature.
His heart was touched and the road ahead was bleak, which made Wang Chen wonder whether his original choice was correct.
Even if he goes through all kinds of hardships and risks his life through the Jade Dragon Mountain mountains, will he definitely be able to find the master Changchun mentioned in West Sea Spirit Domain and embark on the road to heaven?
Wang Chen Not sure at all!
The catastrophe of heaven and earth does not mean the extinction of all living things. It is very possible to survive the catastrophe if you stay at the Mountain Sea Realm.
Maybe staying at Myriad Cultivator City was the best choice.
"I'll drink with you."
Li Yi'an reached for the wine jar and took a few sips.
Then handed it back to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen took it and drank heavily like her.
Just like this, the two of them drank up a jar of spiritual wine.
"Come!"
Li Yi'an took out a jar of Hundred Flower Brew from his storage bag. "We won't get drunk tonight!"
Wang Chen did not refuse.
The jar of Hundred Flower Brew that Li Yi'an took out was obviously more mellow in taste than the previous one. I don't know how many years it has been stored in the cellar.
The stamina is much stronger.
Wang Chen felt something in his heart, so he didn't deliberately suppress the alcohol, and became a little drunk without knowing it.
Suddenly, a faint and dark fragrance filled my heart and spleen.
A ball of warm-smelling nephrite leaned into his arms.
Before Wang Chen could react, Li Yi'an raised his head and pressed his red lips, lilac secretly vomiting into the fine wine.
This wine is as sweet as honey, ecstasy!
Wang Chen was a little drunk again.
He just heard the beauty in his arms smile softly, and breathed softly into his ear. "Do you know my heart?"
Wang Chen I don't know.
Wonder.
In a daze, a chant came to his ears.
"This is the secret Primordial Yin Harmonization Secret Method of our sect. Only Pure Yang and a pure yin body can practice it."
While talking, Li Yi'an shook his hands and typed out four Talismanss, which were pasted on the four corners of the tent.
These Talismans transmit a faint light, isolating the sound and breath from inside and outside!
The next moment, Wang Chen was pushed to the carpet.
There was only one thought in his mind.
I was actually pushed back! ——
Here is the first update. I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunion, happiness and good health!
