Chapter 410: Not Selling

Spring has gone and autumn has deepened, the ancient trees in the clear forest and mountains are covered with wind and frost.

The red leaves are more like fire, flying all over the place.

In the mottled stone pavilion on the back mountain, a small figure sits cross-legged on a wooden bench, with his hands clasped together, breathing slowly while facing the vast autumn scenery.

The setting sun shines, and birds chirp on the branches.

After a long time, Nie Xiaomeng opened her eyes, and tiny spots of colored light appeared in front of her eyes, blooming into gorgeous bubbles. After a moment, the colorful light disappeared, and her hazy vision returned, but it felt much clearer than before.

The little girl's face was full of joy. She ran out of the pavilion and ran along the winding path to the gate of the stone fortress.

Hearing some conversation inside, she looked inside and saw Taoist Master Xu calling her in.

After reporting on the matter, Acting Sect Master You Yanping stood up, bowed and took his leave. Since he frequently opened the Three Thunder Array to train the sect's disciples, in just ten years, many disciples have broken through the bottleneck and advanced to the fifth level.

Fan Changshun, the manager of Qinglin Mountain, also benefited from this and finally achieved a breakthrough this year.

At present, Qinglin Mountain has two managers. Peng Guihe is in charge of external affairs and contacts, and has recruited a group of new staff. Fan Changshun is mainly in charge of internal affairs, local production, etc.

You Yanping stopped to return the polite greeting to the little girl, and smiled and reminded her: "Junior Sister Nie, come to the main peak often."

But I dare not treat the little girl who has not yet started practicing cultivation with disrespect.

The disciple chosen by Patriarch Xu will grow at a speed that will surely astonish everyone.

Nie Xiaomeng agreed obediently and watched the acting sect leader leave. Then, like a little adult, she clasped her fists and reported to Taoist Xu the strange vision of colorful light and bubbles that she had just "seen" during her practice, with a beaming look on her face.

Chief Xu Yuan stood up from his chair, praised her a few words, and encouraged the little girl to continue working hard.

He took out the jade slip that Lao Li had given him a long time ago, and spent more than a month reviewing it, sorting out some basic exercises suitable for the little girl to learn, and then taught it to Nie Xiaomeng bit by bit.

The little girl lived up to expectations and, apart from learning to read, playing the violin and playing every day, her practice progressed astonishingly. In less than four months, she found the "illusion", which is equivalent to the sense of Qi in Qigong practice.

He teaches students in accordance with their aptitude, allowing the little ones to get close to the world, feel nature, and play according to their instincts. He takes the approach of "using fun to control fantasy".

Nie Xiaomeng clasped his fists and bowed to take his leave. After leaving the house, he ran towards the entrance of the mountain road.

She made an appointment with a few friends at the foot of the mountain to go fishing in the stream and picking wild fruits. The fat girl from Manager Fan's family and the girls and boys from several other families were not much different in age. They played and ate together almost every day. Occasionally, the wife of the Fan family would take everyone to Zhuiming Mountain to mingle and play with the new apprentices.

The days of practicing in the mountains allowed her to find true childlike joy.

Every adult here was very friendly to her when they saw her, smiling and speaking nicely and enthusiastically.

The sadness and gloom that Jiuzhu City left her with gradually faded away.

……

A secret place hidden in the clouds, a hot hilly mountain area with white steam rising out.

Cen Kan looked alert, holding a short-handled thin axe, and scanned the bare hills within a hundred miles. After confirming that there was no hidden danger and no signs of exposed fighting, he landed first on a dark brown rock on the top of a selected mountain.

Lu Jiuzhen, Yan Hanlin and others fell down one after another, forming a formation that could be used for both offense and defense.

Of the sixteen people who originally entered the secret realm, only twelve are left.

The rules within the secret realm are different from those in the outside world. Flying in the air requires constant consumption of mana.

All kinds of strange dangers emerge one after another. A seemingly inconspicuous big tree suddenly turns into a ferocious giant mouth full of sharp wooden teeth when a monk passes by, launching an unexpected sneak attack. They call it "alienated tree spirits."

Some alienated tree spirits spray poisonous wood fluids that can cost a cultivator half his life if it causes just a small wound.

A patch of seemingly harmless flowers and plants may be hiding an alienated flower spirit that spreads poisonous powder.

Danger is everywhere, and there are other monks who are taking advantage of the situation to rob. There is nothing you can't imagine.

Of course, the harvest also made everyone particularly satisfied.

There was only a little over a month left before they would leave the secret realm. After discussion, everyone decided to find a place to stay and no longer participate in the adventure of searching for treasures. They would take what they had gained from the adventure out of the secret realm, and the trip would be complete.

The two groups of monks from Hufeng Mountain and Wuji Temple, who had acted together at the beginning, had long since separated due to disputes, choices and other conflicts, and each went their own way.

Cen Kan has gone through dozens of charge and life-and-death battles, plus more than a thousand years of practice, which has brought him to the brink of a breakthrough. He has realized a hint of the mystery of the rules of power, but is trapped in the secret environment and cannot break through immediately.

It was also he who suggested resting on the spot. He could not walk any further as he was worried that he would break through the restrictions of this place and be teleported out of the secret realm.

"Master, Lao Yan, please go and investigate the area carefully."

Cen Kan was still a little worried, so he arranged for two people to take people for a walk within thirty to fifty miles. After eliminating potential dangers, Yan Hanlin would set up a protective formation, and everyone would use the mountain as a base to safely spend the rest of their days.

Yan Hanlin bowed and shouted "Understood sir", then he and his eldest senior brother each led one person and walked in two directions.

Cen Kan paid attention to any slight movement around him. He saw the four people climbing over the mountains and going far away.
On his left wrist he wore a bracelet made of dark green and scarlet red. The light flowed slowly. Suddenly, the bracelet turned into two flames, emitting sparks that shot up ten feet into the air, making a strange "hissing" sound.

Cen Kan didn't know where the danger came from, so he shouted a warning: "Be careful!"

The Yin-Yang Magic Fire Essence lent to him by Uncle Xu helped everyone escape danger many times along the way.

The seemingly solid mountaintop beneath their feet suddenly collapsed downwards. The huge suction force dragged down many fifth-floor monks who tried to fly into the air. A huge hole emerged from the flying dust, with dark red fire surging inside.

Cen Kan grabbed the disciple who was struggling against the suction and threw him into the air, shouting, "Guo Jiayi, take them away!"

He chased after the falling disciple and threw him into the air, but he himself fell into the mouth of the giant beast. He swung his axe and chopped it fiercely downwards. A dark red flame gushed out, sweeping up the two disciples who could not escape and Cen Kan and making them retreat back into the ground.

Yan Hanlin and Lu Jiuzhen, who were dozens of miles away, witnessed the sudden incident and flew back in shock.

"Have you seen clearly what kind of wild beast it is?"

Yan Hanlin hovered over the entrance of the cave where magma was surging below, and asked anxiously.

Guo Jiayi was still frightened and shouted, "I can't tell what kind of monster it is. Second Senior Brother has gone down. What should I do?"

They had already discovered that there were many wild monsters that had disappeared from the outside world living in the secret realm. Each of them was huge in size, and those who survived had already reached the peak of the sixth floor, but were restricted by the secret realm and could not break out.

Lu Jiuzhen threw out a green mist-like magic weapon to protect the remaining four disciples. He looked around and asked, "Where did the fire spirit go?"

"Ah uh...I should follow Second Senior Brother down."

Guo Jiayi turned around and looked around, guessing.

Suddenly, he heard several screams such as "Hide quickly", "Be careful of the sky", "Sneak attack", etc. When he reacted, "bang", a transparent shadow like a whip suddenly appeared and hit him hard on the head. Guo Jiayi was completely engulfed in flames and let out a shrill howl.

Dark red flames erupted fiercely, splashing towards the people who were trying to rescue.

In order to protect his four disciples, Lu Jiuzhen had to retreat backwards. With a wave of his sleeves, the whistling ice and snow swirled towards the flames. There was a loud "hissing" sound, and thick white mist rose up.

Yan Hanlin and the other two elders each used their own methods to put out the fire in an instant, but Guo Jiayi who had been ambushed was nowhere to be seen.

"Attack the cave entrance below, quickly, rescue Second Brother and the others."

Yan Hanlin was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he was the first to throw out a sixth-level ice talisman. The wild monster they were facing this time was very powerful and extremely insidious and cunning.

The other two elders carefully protected themselves and followed up with magical attacks downwards.

Lu Jiuzhen hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Be careful not to hit Cen Laoer, he can escape."

The others fell into the beast's mouth and may have died.

But he had confidence in Cen Lao Er. That guy had rough skin and tough flesh, and he had felt a trace of the law of power. Even a sixth-level magic weapon would not be able to cut through his defense, and he would not die so easily in the mouth of the giant beast.

What's more, two fire spirits also went in, using fire to restrain fire, which was enough to give the unknown monster a hard time.

With a few loud bangs, the ground below collapsed in all directions, revealing a shocking red cave entrance.

Suddenly, thick magma and blazing flames shot out from the cave entrance. There was a roar like a dragon, full of shocking deterrence, and a dark red beast shadow hundreds of feet in size jumped out. It was shaped like a dragon, with a head like a camel, prominent horns, and its body covered with palm-sized hexagonal scales. Two fire whiskers whipped in the air, and fire shadows appeared like mountains.

"It's a dragon. Retreat quickly. Cen Lao Er is fighting with it in the dragon's belly!"

Lu Jiuzhen recognized the monster's footsteps and almost gasped. There was actually a dragon beast left over from ancient times in the secret realm.

He was a little worried about Cen Lao Er. The Jiao was good at fire and had its own space inside its body. If Cen Lao Er could not break through the space, no matter how strong his physique was, it would be refined by the ubiquitous Dan fire.

He threw out three dark gold ropes in succession, which turned into three flashes of light, passing through the layers of protective flames circling around the Jiao Jiao, tightly binding the angry and roaring Jiao beast. He made hand gestures and shouted, "Binding ropes connected!"

The three dark gold binding ropes successfully launched a sneak attack, locking the neck, chest and lower abdomen of the dragon respectively, resisting the burning of the high-temperature flames that could melt a sixth-level magic weapon.

He had on him various magical weapons that he had collected and refined over a long period of time, so he was not afraid of losing a set of Immortal Binding Ropes.

As long as I can help Mr. Cen buy some time, it will be worth it.

An ice-blue formation flag appeared in Yan Hanlin's hand, and he threw it out with a move of scattering flowers. Chilled air surged, and ice crystals the size of copper coins fell from the sky to consume the demonic power and flames of the dragon.

The other two elders used their own methods to attack the monster, which was roaring in pain, from a distance of more than ten miles.

"Old Goose, be careful!"

Lu Jiuzhen suddenly shouted.

"Pah, pah", the two fiery whiskers suddenly turned invisible and lashed towards Yan Hanlin in front from the air.

The area of ​​a hundred feet was shrouded in fire shadows, but the next moment Yan Hanlin appeared several miles away. He used his natal formation diagram and teleportation ability to escape the disaster in advance.

"Stay further away and be careful to protect yourself!"

Yan Hanlin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shouted, if those two attacks had hit him hard, with his physique, even with the protection of his precious clothes, he would have been in great trouble, and would have been seriously injured if not killed.

That thrilling feeling of life and death is so exciting and terrifying.

"hold head high……"

The dragon twisted its body and let out another loud roar. Its belly, which was swollen to the extreme, suddenly split open, and blood spurted out along with flames. Two points of dark green and red flames emerged, which were inconspicuous compared to the huge body of the dragon.

However, the coiled dark red flames were disappearing at an extremely fast speed.

"The fire spirit is coming out!"

Lu Jiuzhen shouted with joy, he clasped his hands together and tightly bound the twisted body of the dragon.

"Bang", the wound was covered in blood and flesh, and a murderous figure broke out. Cen Kan was covered in blood, and a Dharma image over twenty feet high rose behind him. He swung his axe in his backhand, and the cold light seemed to be substantial, cutting through the layers of flame protection and cutting off the head of the dragon that stretched its neck and screamed in pain.

It is simply the ultimate in ingenuity.

"Why are you still standing there? The rest of the work of skinning, scaling and pulling out tendons is up to you."

Cen Kan grinned and laughed heartily. He was once again thankful that Master Xu had the foresight to lend him the two fire spirits. Otherwise, he would be trapped in the belly of the dragon filled with demonic fire, and it would be extremely difficult to escape. If things went wrong, both sides would suffer losses.

This is a wild monster trapped at the peak of level six.

Lu Jiuzhen smiled and sighed: "You destroyed my set of Immortal Binding Ropes, so I have to pick the spoils first this time."

Yan Hanlin and the other two elders were all smiling. One of them used his magic power to catch the huge head of the monster, and the other two carried the remaining body and flew to another hill. Yan Hanlin used his magic power to catch the gushing blood, as he was reluctant to waste it.

This is the blood of the dragon.

Cen Kan stretched out his left hand, letting the fire essence that had devoured the flames in the air return to his wrist. He suddenly turned and looked to the left. There were several black dots flying towards him at lightning speed. He fixed his eyes and said in a voice transmission, "It's the cultivators from Liuyun Sect. Senior Brother, quickly collect the remains of the dragon and don't let them see it."

Lu Jiuzhen quickly used his magic power to roll up the remains of the dragon and put it into a huge treasure in his hand.

"You, hand over the Jiao."

"We have seen that if you take the initiative to take it out, we can exchange it for treasures."

The six monks approached slowly. The white-robed man who was the leader smiled and said, "The mysterious beasts are inhabited by the virtuous. You don't have enough power in Wuliu Mountain, so you may cause trouble."

Cen Kan stared at the man for a moment, then slowly subsided his aura. He put the axe into the storage space, stretched out his left hand and said, "Big Brother."

Just when the six opponents thought that the matter was settled, two flames flew out from Cen Kan's wrist.

Ripples in the shape of a Yin-Yang fish appeared in the air. Various illusions surrounded the six people. They were caught off guard and their souls were trapped by the phantom fire spirit. The jade pendant on the waist of the man in white robe burst into colorful light.

"Swish", a ray of cold light was indestructible, the man's head flew into the air, and the fear in his eyes faded.

Cen Kan moved the six heads away in a flash like chopping melons and vegetables, and the flames burned away all the remaining bodies.

"You son of a bitch, you're relying on the power of the sect to do whatever you want, forcing me to buy and sell, right? I won't sell to you, and no one can take away the spoils that I risked my life for, bah!"
