The Pastoral Life of a Cultivation Master

Chapter 2828: Fierce

Chen Mo sat cross-legged on a stone, looking at the palace-like buildings in the distance. Although the distance was far and he couldn't see it clearly, he could still feel the magnificence of the buildings in the distance from his current position. He just didn't know what these buildings were used for.

"What are you looking at? Those buildings look like ruins. What's so good about them?" Lan Caijie was a little bored, so she came to Chen Mo and asked.

Chen Mo turned his head and looked at Lan Caijie in silence. Her whole body seemed to glow in the moonlight. She was originally a spirit body, and as her strength recovered, her body seemed to be gradually glowing. Of course, this light would not turn into a light bulb. This was because Lan Caijie's spirit body had not yet fully recovered due to damage. In addition, because the spirit body absorbed spiritual energy, a small part of the spiritual energy dissipated after absorption, so it would cause a slight glow. In fact, when Lan Caijie fully recovered and consolidated her spirit body, she would not glow. Only under special circumstances would her spirit body glow.

Of course, if the spirit body becomes a soul body, then it will naturally become a ball of light, just like a glowing ball. When the Jade Skull devoured the saber-toothed tiger, the saber-toothed tiger's spirit body was a ball of light.

"I'm not free, I can only look at the scenery in the distance!" Chen Mo said helplessly.

"Then can you see clearly? It's late at night, there's no moon, and there's no starlight. I can't see anything clearly." Lan Caijie said. As a spirit, she naturally didn't have Chen Mo's night vision ability, and she wouldn't waste her spiritual power. She used it to explore the front.

Besides, the range of her spiritual sense is relatively short, and there is still a large formation here that suppresses the detection distance of the spiritual sense. Therefore, Lan Caijie is like a blind person in the valley at night. She can't see anything at a slightly farther distance.

Chen Mo did not brag about it. He could still see the ruins-like buildings in the distance. After all, he had the ability to see during the day, which was an ability that most cultivators had, especially those with strong spiritual awareness, whose night vision was also stronger.

"Haha, I'm also bored, so I can only look at it. It doesn't matter if I can't see it clearly. I'm just killing time anyway." Chen Mo said.

"Then why don't you let these people wake up and let them stay unconscious like this?" Lan Caijie said, pointing at the warriors lying on the ground.

Chen Mo turned around and immediately slapped his head. He had something else to do later, so he was waiting here. But now it was a dark and windy night, and there was still some chill in the valley, so how could he have forgotten?

He immediately took out a sleeping bag and a blanket from his Qiankun bag, hurriedly got up, put the sleeping bag under Ouyang Ruoxi, and covered her with the blanket to keep her warm.

Because Ouyang Ruoxi was still in a coma at the moment, her body seemed to be a little uncomfortable due to the cold, so her expression was a little sad, which made Chen Mo feel very guilty.

I was just thinking about something, and because I have daytime vision, I didn't pay much attention after it got dark. It was really a bit too much.

Seeing Ouyang Ruoxi's expression relaxed as her body warmed up, I finally felt relieved.

In fact, warriors' bodies are much stronger than ordinary people. On such a dark and windy night, even if a warrior is injured, he will not catch a cold the next morning. He will just feel a little uncomfortable. If he is not unconscious, it is much better to use Qigong to keep warm than to wear thick clothes.

But unfortunately, everyone is now in a coma, so everyone's expression is not very good. Basically, no one has a relaxed expression. Their faces are all pressed together, looking bitter.

In order to prevent these guys from waking up from the cold, Chen Mo took out another set of array bases, then covered the entire group of people lying down, and used the primary attack form of the illusion array to send these people into the psychedelic array. In this way, no one would wake up, and even if they woke up, they would be attacked by the illusion array and fall into a coma.

The advanced attack form of the illusion array was not activated, mainly because Chen Mo just wanted to keep these people in a coma and didn't want to send them to death. Besides, among them was his favorite Ouyang Ruoxi.

In addition, he used restrictions to control the formation, opened the isolation formation, and cast the Spring Breeze Talisman in the formation, which also made everyone in the formation feel more comfortable.

Of course, Chen Mo would not take out the sleeping bag and put these guys in it one by one. Haha, he is not that diligent.

Then he quickly checked the four-horned beast again and felt that the guy's injuries had recovered by more than half. Seeing that the silver needle he had inserted was still in its heart, he no longer cared about the beast.

Instead, he took back the array plate, cast a ban, and released the trap array that had just been set up on the beast. If the beast woke up and wanted to struggle, it would have to lie there obediently unless it broke the trap array first.

At the same time, he passed the operating procedures of this formation to Lan Caijie again to facilitate her control.

"Huh? Why did you take this formation away? Isn't this formation very useful?" Lan Caijie asked immediately when she saw Chen Mo taking the formation away.

"Well, this set of formation plates may be useful later, so I exchanged it with other formations. Anyway, the techniques of controlling the formations have been passed on to you, and there is no difference in the control." Chen Mo said.

"Where will it be used?" Lan Caijie pointed at Ouyang Ruoxi and said, "It's been such a long time, and you still let your little wife lie on the ground and didn't let her wake up. Is there anything else you haven't solved?" Chen Mo nodded and replied, "You guessed right, I still have some things to do, and I don't want them, including my little wife, to know, so these people have to sleep for a while longer."

"However, letting these people get some sleep is also beneficial. After all, they have been exploring the valley these days and there are dangers at any time, so these people have not had a good rest. This time they can have a good rest. You and I will also stand guard for them to ensure their safety. There is really no one else like us."

"Haha..." Lan Caijie burst into laughter when she heard Chen Mo's witty words. She didn't expect that her master would have so many thoughts in his heart. It was really ridiculous.

From the Han Dynasty to now, she has never met anyone like Chen Mo. It's really funny.

In fact, if Lan Caijie could live in modern times, she would be able to think of people like Chen Mo, the kind of boring guy. Unfortunately, she is not a modern person, and she doesn't know how to use the Internet. As a spirit, she usually has to stay in the soul-raising jar, so she can only think that Chen Mo is very funny.

"Oh, I seem to remember what this strange beast is called. It is so similar to one of the strange beasts in the album of strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that I have read." Lan Caijie said.

"Classic of Mountains and Seas?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"Yes. Among the books collected by my young lady, there was the Classic of Mountains and Seas. There was an album in it, the same as the one in front of you. It said that this strange beast was called the fierce ancient beast, which lived in the underworld and fed on living things. Its favorite food was humans. It was one of the ten most ferocious beasts in ancient times, and its ferocity was the same as that of the Qiongqi. This is the beast drawn in the album, like a cow, with four horns and very long hair, just like a straw raincoat draped over its body." As he spoke, he pointed to the strange beast lying unconscious on the ground.

"This is called Bianhen? It's really interesting. The ten most ferocious beasts from ancient times have all appeared. Did the book you read say that this strange beast called Bianhen can walk in the air?" Chen Mo asked.

Lan Caijie shook her head and replied, "No, that's not the case. The atlas only introduces the origin of this strange beast and some of its characteristics, but it doesn't say it can walk in the air. The book also says that the beast only eats living things and never eats carrion. It has a very special diet and likes to eat human flesh and animals. It is said to come from the netherworld, has an immortal body, and a very long lifespan."

"Oh, so the strange beast we see now might really be the fierce beast you mentioned. If it didn't have an extremely long lifespan, it wouldn't be possible for it to survive until now." Chen Mo said.

This valley is thousands or even tens of thousands of years old. It is impossible for an ordinary beast to live for such a long time. Only a beast with a very long lifespan could survive here.

Of course, there are some species left in the valley, but they may have survived by reproducing from generation to generation.

For example, those blood-thirsty bullet ants in the Great Rift Valley. Chen Mo didn't believe that these ants had survived for thousands of years. They could have survived by multiplying.

However, as long as he has no use for these species in the valley, there is no need to study them. He is not a historian or an zoologist. As long as they are of no use to him, he will just destroy them.

The strange beast in front of him might be the only ancient strange beast in the world. If it were discovered outside, it would probably shock the whole world. But for Chen Mo, it was of no use.

Just as Chen Mo and Lan Caijie were chatting, his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly fluctuated. He immediately stood up and said to Lan Caijie, "Be careful and guard here. I still need to go down."

"Okay!" Lan Caijie saw that Chen Mo's expression was a little serious, and immediately responded.

Chen Mo dodged and went directly into the Great Rift Valley and quickly came to the cave.

Outside the cave, although it was dark, the bloodthirsty ants did not leave and still surrounded the cave entrance. The bloodthirsty ants sensed movement and immediately attacked Chen Mo, but they still missed every time.

Chen Mo found it a little funny. These ants failed every time they attacked him, but they still didn't learn their lesson. They were really persistent!

In the dark cave room, a jade-colored skeleton sat cross-legged on a stone platform with its head tilted down. It did not have the same arrogant look as before, as if it had lost some support.

Ma Sanxing, who was lying next to the jade-colored skeleton, also had his eyes tightly closed. His chest was rising and falling, so he should still be breathing. However, he had no reaction at all, just like a vegetative person who only breathed and had no other reactions. But one of his hands was clenched into a fist, and the only part that was not clenched was the index finger, as if he had just pointed at something.

The figure he just saw was Chen Mo who walked in.
