I can bless thousands of magical powers.

Chapter 429 Strong
Its daybreak.

The morning light shines through the dense treetops and falls on the deserted village.

Last night's bonfire had turned to ashes. Zhang Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the fire, opened his eyes, reached out to grab a piece of dry wood, and injected his true energy into it.

Snapped!
How could the firewood withstand the pressure? It immediately broke into pieces and burst into flames.

The Hunyuan Tiangang Zhengfa that Zhang Yuan practiced belongs to the Qianyang Kung Fu, which is extremely rigid, extremely yang, and extremely fierce. Using the true essence to attract fire is just a trivial skill.

He casually threw the burning wood into the ashes in front of him and put a few branches on top.

A new fire was built.

Su Jingyao, who was sitting opposite, also came back to her senses from her trance.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Zhang Yuan boiled a pot of water and added half a pound of tea leaves he had brought with him.

The aroma of tea is wafting, and it can be eaten with dry food as breakfast.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Yuan discussed with Su Jingyao and prepared to leave the deserted village camp together.

Explore the surrounding area.

In the secret realm, weird things and monsters tend to gather near deserted villages and deserted cities, so using deserted villages as bases to attack from all sides is the most common hunting method.

But this method is not 100% effective.

If there aren't many monsters in the surrounding area, the two will need to find a new base.

So today's exploration work is very important.

You should know that the mission period of the Jiufeng Competition is only seven days.

A day has passed.

However, just as Zhang Yuan and Su Jingyao were about to set off, he suddenly heard some noise coming from the dense forest not far away.

"and many more."

Zhang Yuan stopped Su Jingyao without hesitation and held the Condor Bow in his hand.

His eyes looked towards the unusual place.

Su Jingyao reacted very quickly and immediately retreated to the center of the magic circle with two more talismans in his hand.

Only a moment later, two figures appeared in the sight of Zhang Yuan and Su Jingyao.

A cultivator, a warrior, and the other party was also a Taoist warrior team participating in the competition!
At the same time that Zhang Yuan and Su Jingyao discovered them, the other party also noticed their presence.

The young monk frowned and stopped.

Then he winked at the warriors around him.

This warrior was a burly man with a strong build and an extremely intimidating physique, and he was carrying a Xuanhua axe on his back.

He understood the young monk's expression and immediately strode forward and said loudly: "My fellow monk, may I ask if you have set up a magic circle in this deserted village?"

Zhang Yuan walked towards the other party and replied in a deep voice: "That's right."

When chatting with Su Jingyao yesterday, the latter told him that although Shang Jingtian strictly prohibits disciples from fighting privately, if friction occurs during the sect competition, as long as no life is lost, it will generally not be pursued.

Even if there is punishment, it will be quite light.

Therefore, Zhang Yuan not only needs to deal with monsters, but also has to guard against competitors!

Some people are willing to use despicable means to win.

Zhang Yuan felt that the warrior in front of him had bad intentions, so he blocked the other party's way without hesitation.

The burly warrior stopped dead in his tracks, his bear eyes gleaming with ferocity.

His aura suddenly became manic and fierce!

However, Zhang Yuan remained fearless when facing the burly warrior, and released the magic of invisibility that was suppressing his own aura.

Zhang Yuan's breath suddenly surged.

Not only did he withstand the pressure from the opponent, he even surpassed them!

The burly warrior's expression changed.

He didn't know Zhang Yuan, but seeing that Zhang Yuan was young, he wanted to test his strength.

If Zhang Yuan fails to react, they will have to press on and on until Zhang Yuan gives up this deserted village.

As a result, Zhang Yuan's toughness was completely beyond the burly warrior's expectations.

Although he was also a fifth-level warrior, after realizing Zhang Yuan's strength, he immediately turned his head and looked at the young cultivator.

The young monk's face was as gloomy as water, and he shook his head slightly. The burly warrior took a deep breath, clasped his fists towards Zhang Yuan and said, "Excuse me."

After saying that, he turned around and left, very decisively.

The young monk was obviously still a little unwilling. He looked at Zhang Yuan deeply and then at Su Jingyao.

Only then did he leave in disappointment.

"This guy is from Qingtian Peak."

Su Jingyao returned to Zhang Yuan's side, watched him leave, and said, "The people of Qingtian Peak have always been arrogant and domineering. I have disliked them for a long time!"

Zhang Yuan's heart moved.

It seems that the nine peaks and nine veins of Shangjingtian are not a monolithic entity, and there are considerable internal conflicts.

Within the mountain gate, limited by the sect's rules and regulations, no one dared to act rashly and maintained a harmonious situation.

But once you enter the secret realm and face fierce competition, the situation is very different.

Zhang Yuan secretly reminded himself not to be careless.

Fortunately, the Qingxuan Secret Realm is large enough and the probability of the two teams meeting is very low.

During the subsequent exploration, Zhang Yuan and Su Jingyao did not encounter any trouble again.

The problem is that the two found very few strange things.

It’s pitifully small!

As a last resort, Su Jingyao had to end the search operation early and return to the deserted village base.

"How about this."

She thought for a moment and said, "If we don't get anything tonight, we'll look for a new deserted village tomorrow."

Zhang Yuan naturally had no objection.

The sky darkened again, and in a blink of an eye it was the second night since the two of them entered the Qingxuan Secret Realm.

Zhang Yuan built a bonfire as usual and cooked a simple dinner.

According to the previous agreement, the two will take turns to keep watch tonight.

Su Jingyao stayed on duty for the first half of the night.

At midnight, Zhang Yuan took over the duty.

Everything was calm in the first half of the night and nothing happened.

Zhang Yuan watched over the campfire, adding a few pieces of firewood from time to time, and also made himself a pot of tea.

In the darkest hours before dawn, the previously blazing fire grew dim.

Suddenly, an evil wind blew and the temperature around dropped suddenly.

The flames of the bonfire shook suddenly, and sparks flew out!
Zhang Yuan was shocked.

wrong!

Just as he sensed danger, a ray of light shone from underground.

The Five Elements Circular Light Array was triggered!
The next moment, Su Jingyao came out of the tent with an extremely solemn expression.

The two exchanged quick glances.

Su Jingyao sat down in front of the altar at the center of the magic circle as quickly as possible, made hand gestures, closed her eyes and cast a spell.

Zhang Yuan stood up, his sharp eyes piercing through the barrier of darkness and scanning all directions.

He quietly activated the Red Eyed Crow's special vision.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yuan locked onto the target!

Around the deserted village, faint white shadows appeared at some point.

They approached Zhang Yuan and Su Jingyao silently. The gloomy and cold aura swept in from all directions, raising a light mist wherever it went.

Surprising!

And it’s really weird!
These strange things gave Zhang Yuan a bad feeling.

It was cold and evil, like the tongue of a poisonous snake, and contained deadly danger.

Zhang Yuan suddenly drew out the Taowu Sword!
