Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 236 A Quiet Place
Southern Song Dynasty.

Ever since Xu Chen and the powerful octopus fell into the gap of the Five Elements formation, the formation had remained calm for nearly a month, and then the agitation became more intense. The eruption of black air suddenly intensified, and several powerful giant beasts appeared one after another. , leading to unprecedented turmoil in the formation. Even if all the monks went all out to suppress and stabilize it, it was already riddled with holes and crumbling by the ghost beast.

Heifengling and Linghu Canyon are connected to each other, and both are damaged.

Therefore, with the continuous decay of the Five Elements Formation, the Eight Great Formation that suppressed the Linghu Canyon was still violently turbulent, and the black air rose into the sky like a tide, rolling into the depths of the southern border.

Now, a few months have passed, and the range of the black air attack is less than ten miles away from Taiyuan Gate. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the sky and the earth in the northeast, southwest, and northwest directions are like ink stains, and the black air is churning as if the demon world is descending. From time to time, dark figures rushed out of the black mist, dragging billowing smoke and flying in all directions. The terrifying situation made people feel horrified.

The monks guarding the two large formations are caught in endless fighting almost every day. The middle and low-level monks suffered heavy casualties. The team took turns entering the two large formations to kill the soul beasts, trying to keep the formation running so that it would not collapse.

But everyone knows that the collapse of the two formations is only a matter of time.

Song Dynasty is about to usher in an unprecedented human catastrophe.

The several outer sect strongholds built by Taiyuan Sect in Wild Wolf Valley and the foot of the mountain have all been lost, and all the outer sect disciples have withdrawn to the mountain gate.

The temporary garrison in charge of guarding Heifeng Ridge was also abandoned, and a large number of monks were evacuated to Nanyang City to continue their resistance.

The situation was so critical, but the two immortal sects of Yuqing Palace and Longmen Mountain were unable to help.

Compared with the situation near the Taiyuan Gate, the situation in the surrounding countries is even more critical. Among them, Soochow has suffered the most severe impact from dark energy and dark beasts. Now Soochow has been invaded by black energy for more than half of the country, and the range of activities of dark beasts has spread throughout Soochow. , and the defense line composed of Donghuang and Dongwu Xianmen collapsed again and again, completely unable to resist, the defense line has been withdrawn to hundreds of miles in the Song Dynasty, and several counties on the southeastern border of the Song Dynasty have fallen into the homeland of ghost beasts.

A large number of ghost beasts began to devour the flesh and blood of humans and beasts to mutate and evolve. At the same time, a large number of monks evolved various incredible magic attacks after being brutally swallowed by ghost beasts.

Under the ebb and flow, the manpower and strength of the fairy world are constantly weakening. Now the situation is completely out of control, the defense is stretched, and the counterattack is powerless. The casualties are retreating steadily.

An unprecedented breath of death and despair enveloped the mortal land.

Those immortal monks who soared high above the clouds and fog in the past are all panicked and bewildered now, with no hope at all.

There are a few big monks who are like Dinghaishenzhen, and now they are even more busy, traveling back and forth in the area where the black wind is filled with ghost beasts, trying their best to kill those powerful ghost beasts, barely maintaining a weak balance, trying their best Delay time and slow down the speed and scope of the expansion of the ghost beast.

As for the common people, there is no fairy sect to take care of them anymore, and they will evacuate as soon as possible after it is really unstoppable and delayed, leaving tens of thousands of mortals falling into the black wind, reduced to the blood food strengthened by the mutation of ghost beasts .

A place of thousands of miles, or within a day, will become a hell on earth.

Wherever the black air is shrouded, there is no living thing to be seen, and the animals and plants are extinct.

Compared with the changes in the surrounding countries, the situation in the Song Kingdom is barely a peaceful place. Today, most of the country is still safe, and the human world has not completely collapsed except for a small number of escaping beasts.

But how long this peace and tranquility can last, even the fairy world is extremely pessimistic.

Because with the passage of time, the development of the situation, and the constant exchange of various news, at this time, no matter the big or small fairy sects or the folk cultivators, they have already known the current situation, and the hearts of the people are in a state of panic all day long. To half relaxed and smiling.

Taiyuan Gate.

Xu Chen's disappearance was quickly forgotten after experiencing a brief pain up and down the mountain gate.

Because of the violent turmoil in the two large formations and the news of the deteriorating situation in various countries, the entire mountain gate was extremely hectic and depressed.

Except for a few elders and disciples from the inner sect who occasionally thought about the disciple and junior who got an adventure, no one cared whether Xu Chen was dead or alive.

After all, looking at the current situation, everyone has a kind of precarious panic.

There are even many recruited outer disciples who are quietly leaving the mountain gate, fleeing to the depths of the southern border, and fleeing to places that are not invaded by black air and ghost beasts in the southeast and northwest, just want to find them before this unprecedented catastrophe comes. A place to settle down.

However, under this unprecedented black terror, it is not all despair.

Master Xuanfeng, the third elder of Taiyuanmen, successfully formed an alchemy through a small catastrophe, becoming the second alchemy elder of Taiyuanmen, and gave a boost to the monks guarding the two formations.

In addition, a large number of monks who participated in the guarding of the two large formations, big and small, and folk cultivators, were also fighting fiercely with the beasts day and night. Many of them had made breakthroughs. Build a foundation or improve the realm.

Therefore, amidst the heavy casualties, these good news are constantly stimulating everyone to fight harder.

Compared with the surrounding countries that are completely out of control and corrupted to the point of no cure, the task of guarding the two large formations of the Taiyuan Gate is much safer.

At least there is no sign of complete loss of control here so far. Although the range of black air is expanding at an alarming rate and the number of ghost beasts is increasing day by day, it is still under control and has not lost its position.

The external situation has deteriorated too badly, and Zhenjun Xuanchen, who is in charge of guarding the Taiyuan Gate, cannot sit at the gate for a long time, so he will come back every half a month or so to inspect the situation of the two large formations, and at the same time kill some who rushed out. The tyrannical ghost beast will leave after staying for three to five days. Its mood is indifferent and unsmiling, and it seems to have an inexplicable depression and anger.

As for the four True Monarchs Chixia, Baiyun, Yuyang and Taiwu in Yuqing Palace and Longmen Mountain, they could not be seen at all. After Xu Chen disappeared, they never came back again, and now they are all out in a state of desperation. run around.

In the midst of the panic and hustle and bustle, Taiyuan Gate still has a place of peace and tranquility.

Where Xu Chen lived in the past, a dilapidated small wooden house is lonely and hidden on the verdant cliff.

A ray of light galloped from the bottom of the mountain, and landed in front of the hut in a blink of an eye.

A girl in a green skirt jumped off the flying sword, covered with blackness and exhaustion, put away the flying sword with a pale face, then gathered her skirt and sat on the lonely stone in front of the door, staring blankly at the surrounding mountains and mountains. Not far away was the whistling black mist.

"Woo~"

A snow-white fox, like a ray of white light, jumped from the direction of the back mountain medicine garden, and flung itself into the girl's arms, arching back and forth incomparably intimately.

There was a hint of love and compassion on the girl's pale face, she hugged the fox in her arms, gently stroked its scalp and said softly: "Xiaobai, maybe we will leave here before your master comes back!"

"Wow!"

The white fox seemed to understand, with a pair of ruby ​​eyes flashing with extreme sadness and reluctance.

"Little brother is a blessed person. He won't die. He just fell into it and disappeared like last time. I think he will come back. What do you think?" the girl murmured with her head bowed.

"Whoa, whoa!"

The white fox arched against the girl's chest, whimpering softly one after another.

"It's a pity that I'm so useless. I failed to build the foundation twice. He will definitely laugh at me when he comes back. When you ask me whether I should beat him, I think the panacea he made is too bad..." the girl said , Two lines of clear tears unknowingly flowed down his cheeks, hugging the white fox in his arms even tighter.

"Woo!" The white fox struggled to break free from the girl's embrace, biting and tugging at the hem of her skirt.

The girl wiped away her tears and stood up, shaking her head sadly and said: "Okay, I'm not in the mood to go to the medicine garden today, you go and play by yourself, I have to go back to practice, and tomorrow I have to kill the ghost beast."

The white fox didn't let go, but pulled even harder. The girl was helpless, bent down and rubbed the white fox's scalp and said: "Okay, don't pull, I see you are tearing my skirt, I'll go with you Let's see!"

"Wow!"

The white fox let go of its mouth happily, and then jumped up and down the rugged path that was almost completely covered by thorns and weeds towards the back of the mountain.

The girl followed behind at a leisurely pace, looking around, tears streaming down again unknowingly.

Soon, one person and one fox came to the medicine garden.

The tumbling waterfall hit the pool with a rushing sound, and the cool mist made the girl feel much better in an instant.

The medicine garden in front of her was still covered by a layer of phantom, and it looked no different from the surrounding mountains to the naked eye, but the moment she walked into the fence of the medicine garden, a colorful and strange plant appeared in front of her eyes.

These grotesque plants are growing extremely huge now, especially the purple vines climbing on the dead reviving wood. The vines are as thick as an arm, and there are clusters of golden flowers blooming between the flourishing branches and vines. Some of them have germinated green fruits the size of beans.

In addition, the tops of the purple-red plants with the largest number of meters high, which resemble rice, have also headed and produced some rice-like grains, but it seems that there is still a long time before they mature.

Many of the leaves of these plants were riddled with holes from being gnawed by fat and strange big bugs like silkworms. At the same time, there was a rustling sound of gnawing, as if silkworms were gnawing on mulberry leaves.

At the roots of some rice leaves, there are many colorful silkworm cocoons, each of which is the size of a fist, with spiritual lights shining inside, astonishing like night pearls.

And among these plants, there are also a few plants that look like shrubs, and some of them have begun to bloom and bear fruit.

In the medicine garden, there are also various spirit herbs and medicines, all of which have thick stems and leaves, shining with strong aura.

The whole medicine garden exudes a scent of flowers and fruits that fills the soul, which makes people intoxicated.
