Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

After parting with the woman, Mo Juren continued to escape quickly in the Soul-Breaking Desert.

He was constantly thinking while on the way. Although he had the wolf tooth pendant to suppress the aura of the sky fox, he still did not dare to take it lightly. What if the other party had already locked onto his position and was on the way to chasing him?

This is not just groundless speculation, but something that could really happen. If this is true, the danger has not been eliminated at all, but still exists.

After all, with his speed, he couldn't outrun the other party at all, and if he followed the other party, he would definitely be caught up soon.

Considering this, he immediately changed his previous plan.

The geographical location of the Soul-Breaking Desert is extremely special. It connects the Xuanwu Realm and the Tianyuan Realm in the east and west, and borders the Tianling Realm in the north.

He originally planned to walk in a straight line eastward across the Soul-Breaking Desert and eventually reach Fanyang City on the western edge of Tianyuan Realm. This distance was the shortest.

But if they gave up this route and headed directly north, it would only take about half a year to enter the southern area of ​​Tianling Realm.

If I remember correctly, there is also a teleportation point in Lingyue City there. After several teleportations, you can reach Hongshan City, which borders Tianyuan Realm.

From there, you only need to cross a wide river to enter Guangling City in the north of Tianyuan Territory, without any obstacles in between.

Calculating the distance, it would take some extra time to go through the Tianling Realm, and it would also consume some more spirit stones, but it would obviously be much safer.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Hua Qingyao is really on the way, but even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, Mo Juren will not take the risk.

So after just a little thought he made a decision, suddenly changed direction, and headed straight north.

Coincidentally, this cautious move worked again. About a few days later, a ray of light passed by here, and without stopping, it continued to move towards the east.

And who else could it be if not Hua Qingyao in that escaping light?

……

For some reason, after changing route to the north, Mo Juren instinctively felt relieved deep in his heart.

Maybe I really did the right thing this time, which made me feel inexplicably happier throughout the rest of the journey.

It was not until half a year later that he finally left the Soul-Breaking Desert and continued to fly, taking about three days to reach Lingyue City.

This is also a big city, almost the same size as Black Crystal City. However, perhaps because it is located in the southern border, the number of people living in the city is much smaller.

But even so, the city is still very prosperous.

Mo Juren walked slowly along the street, and after appreciating the unique customs and practices, he did not delay and headed straight for the teleportation point.

What followed was several consecutive teleportations. It was inevitable to spend spirit stones, but the speed was very fast. In less than half an hour, he had arrived at Hongshan City.

This city also borders the Tianyuan Realm, and there is a Cangyuan River between the two sides. Although it is vast and boundless and there are a large number of monsters living in it, it poses no danger to him.

Of course, if it is an ordinary cultivator or body cultivator, the situation is quite different. They usually take a large-scale fleet organized by a merchant company, or a flying boat, which is safer.

And precisely because of the special geographical location, there are a large number of cultivators and body cultivators traveling back and forth between the two sides of the river, especially some business dealings, which are extremely frequent.

Above the river, a beam of light was flying rapidly. It was naturally Mo Juren who had already set off.

He was considered knowledgeable and had seen countless rivers, but this was the first time he had seen one as vast and boundless as the Cangyuan River.

It's more like the sea than a river.

There were indeed quite a few fleets on the river and flying boats in the sky, and we could see them from time to time while flying.

Not to mention those flying boats, the fleets sailing on the rivers are obviously less safe, and attacks by water monsters often occur.

Fortunately, most fleets are fully prepared in this regard. As long as they are not too strong or too numerous, they basically will not cause much impact.

Of course, there are exceptions, like at this moment, when Mo Juren had flown about half the distance, he was suddenly disturbed by a series of violent fluctuations of magic power.

Someone was fighting, and the location was not far away, just dozens of miles away. The sound came from such a long distance and was so clear, which showed how fierce the battle was.

Mo Juren didn't avoid it, but flew directly over.

Dozens of miles were reached in a moment. Looking forward, I saw that on the river, a super-large fleet with hundreds of huge boats was besieged by a large number of monsters.

It was a crab-like monster, more than one foot in size, with golden light flashing all over its body. There were so many of them that they were densely packed everywhere on the vast river surface nearby.

What’s more crucial is that the defense and attack of these crab monsters are extremely powerful. Ordinary magic weapons, spiritual tools, etc. cannot cause much damage to them, but their pair of crab claws are extremely sharp.

It was precisely because of this difficulty that the fleet, although originally quite strong, was still besieged and unable to escape with more than a dozen Jindan stage cultivators.

Deep underwater, Mo Juren saw a gigantic monster that was hundreds of feet long. The aura it emitted was that of a tenth-level monster.

Theoretically, a being of this level could have transformed long ago, but the opponent did not, and still maintained his huge demon body. However, his intelligence was obviously extremely high, and at this moment he was hiding in the deepest part of the river, controlling everything.

The other party seemed to be extremely good at concealing his aura. If he did not have a powerful spiritual sense comparable to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, it would be really difficult to detect him.

"Golden-armored crab?" Mo Juren recognized this crab after a brief thought. At least those on the surface of the river should be golden-armored crabs without a doubt, but the one deep at the bottom of the river was obviously different. Could it be a mutated bloodline?

He was naturally very familiar with the golden-armored crab. As the name suggests, it was a social monster with extremely strong talents in both defense and attack. Its large numbers made it extremely difficult to deal with.

However, the golden crab is still a well-known top-grade ingredient in American cuisine. This has made the living environment of this crab extremely harsh, and its number in the world is extremely small. I didn't expect that there are so many of them hidden here.

He immediately became interested, of course, mainly because of the level ten one at the bottom of the river. If it also had mutated blood, then its value would be very high. If he took it to Guangling City to sell it, he could also exchange it for a large amount of spirit stones.

Of course, it is better to capture them alive. Although the dead ones can also be sold, their value will be depreciated.

Thinking of this, he immediately planned to take action. It was just a level ten monster, so for him it was just a matter of a fight.

In addition, if they delay any further, the entire fleet will be destroyed. Even the crab at the bottom of the river will not show up. Just the huge number of crabs and their offspring will be enough.

However, before he could make any move, he suddenly sensed that two other auras were rapidly approaching. If his senses were correct, they were undoubtedly cultivators in the early Nascent Soul stage. Soon, two auras appeared in his sight. They were a man and a woman, both wearing black Taoist robes, and each carrying a long sword on their backs.

"Sword cultivators!" Mo Juren was slightly surprised. It seemed that these two people were quite powerful! And they were sword cultivators, so their strength should also be quite strong.

The two should have come for the rescue, but unfortunately they didn't know what they were facing. That was a level ten monster, equivalent to the late Nascent Soul stage of the human race, and its actual combat power might be even stronger.

It is true that sword cultivators are usually better at fighting, but the difference in cultivation between these two people is too great, and they are not even close to being able to hold their own against this monster.

Just as he guessed, the two men did come to the rescue after receiving the distress message. At this time, an old man in the fleet quickly took off and approached, then said excitedly:

"Two uncles, you are finally here!"

"Golden-clad crabs? How can there be such a large number of them?" The two nodded slightly. The woman then looked at the densely packed golden crabs below and couldn't help but frowned.

"It's really strange. How come we haven't discovered such a large number before?" The man nodded and continued,

"No matter what, let's act quickly! Otherwise, the fleet will not be able to hold on!"

"Brother, wait a minute, look at that person..." The woman suddenly reminded, and her eyes looked towards the distant sky, where a figure was floating.

The two of them observed carefully and found that they could not tell each other's cultivation level. They were secretly shocked.

"Don't worry about him for now. The most important thing is to rescue the fleet immediately. It won't be too late to say hello after the matter is over." The man retracted his gaze and urged again.

This time the woman said nothing more. She then gave a few instructions to the old man who was flying over. After the old man quickly left and returned to the fleet, she immediately took action.

As they swung their arms, the two long swords behind their backs suddenly trembled slightly, and then turned into two dazzling sword lights that shot directly into the sky.

The two men quickly made unknown spells with their hands, and the two long swords in the sky began to spin rapidly, and one became two, two became four, four became eight...

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of swords appeared and quickly formed a huge sword formation in the sky.

"Go!" As the two shouted at the same time, bursts of sword sounds suddenly rang out in the sword formation, followed by dense sword lights shooting down like a rainstorm, slanting towards the group of golden-armored crabs below.

The power of the sword formation was indeed extraordinary, not to mention that it was two Nascent Soul stage warriors who took action. Those golden-armored crabs that were only level two or three could not resist at all. In just a few breaths, all those above the river surface were killed.

Not only that, the golden-armored crabs hiding under the water also died in large numbers under the attack of the rain of swords.

All of a sudden, the survivors in the entire fleet cheered, and some of the quick-witted ones acted quickly and began to collect the corpses of the golden-shelled crabs.

These are all good things, and there are so many of them, it is definitely a huge fortune.

Soon everyone reacted and joined the collection.

The two people in the air did not stop them. They had sensed that there were not many golden-armored crabs under the water. Or perhaps they knew they could not win, so the rest of them all fled to the depths of the river.

Naturally, they were too lazy to chase after them and immediately put away the sword formation.

However, at this moment, something strange happened suddenly. An extremely powerful aura suddenly appeared deep at the bottom of the river, and then began to approach the surface of the river rapidly.

"Oh no, there's a big monster! And its aura is very strong!" The two people in the air immediately understood something, and their faces changed drastically. The man even said directly,

"This monster is not simple. Ordinary formations may not be enough. Junior sister, set up the Yin-Yang Sword Formation immediately!"

"it is good!"

The two of them cooperated very well, and while they were talking, the spells in their hands changed rapidly. In an instant, hundreds of flying swords that appeared in the sky immediately split into two, and finally formed a Tai Chi Yin-Yang pattern.

It was just a simple change of formation, but Mo Juren could clearly feel the terrifying killing power contained in it, which was more than one level higher than the sword rain attack just now.

At the same time, the fleet below was also reminded and no longer cared about collecting golden-shelled crabs. They all started their huge ships and fled frantically into the distance.

Unfortunately, the time was too short and some of the ships were unable to make it in time.

In just a few breaths, a huge monster suddenly broke out of the water. The dozen or so ships left behind were immediately hit violently, and the hulls were torn into pieces.

For a while, screams and wailing continued.

Looking at the huge monster that broke through the water and was suspended in the air, the two men's faces suddenly changed.

They were of course familiar with golden-clad crabs, but this was the first time they had seen one so huge. And from its appearance, it seemed different from a pure golden-clad crab.

The entire crab body was mainly blood-colored, but above the blood-colored color there were dense golden lines, which vaguely seemed to form some kind of mysterious demonic text.

The two of them immediately thought of a possibility, blood mutation, and the powerful demonic energy released from the other party could confirm that its level had reached level ten.

There was no way the two of them could be a match for such a powerful monster.

"Brother, what should we do?" The woman looked around with a pale face, but the man also had no idea at this moment and his face was extremely solemn.

The level 10 golden-armored crab did not start attacking immediately. Instead, its attention was focused on another place, which was where Mo Juren was. There was an instinctive fear in the crab's eyes.

Seeing this, the man in the distance reacted immediately and hurriedly said respectfully:

"Senior, I hope you can help me to eliminate this monster. My brother and I will be grateful to you. In addition, Xuanjian Valley will also reward you handsomely afterwards."

"Xuanjian Valley!" Mo Juren was slightly surprised. It was the first time he heard this name. It should be a local sect.

He didn't really care about it. He would certainly help. After all, this was his original plan, and he had already regarded the level 10 golden-armored crab in front of him as a sure thing.

He nodded slightly to his fellow brothers and sisters in the distance, then he suddenly raised his arm. In an instant, a giant five-colored palm with a diameter of more than a thousand feet suddenly emerged from the sky.

With an irresistible and terrifying pressure, he suddenly slapped the crab below. (End of this chapter)
