Chapter 1223: Stange Events in the Savage Wild Continents
Hundreds of miles away, the silver figure slowly stopped after seeing that there was no pursuer.
The silver light disappeared, and the figure inside was Liu Ming.
With a wave of his hand, the Daiyue Jade Boat appeared below him. He continued to fly toward the distance.
Liu Ming’s face was slightly pale at the moment. He consumed a green elixir and meditated on the flying boat for a while. His face gradually recovered.
He just slapped his waist with one hand, and a green light rolled out from the green gourd. A girl in white flew out. It was Qian Rupin.
“Okay, we have already left the sphere of influence of the mineral vein of the Silver Tiger Race. The path ahead should be relatively safe.” Liu Ming said with a sigh of relief.
Qian Rupin nodded, but there was a faint layer of black air on her face. Her body couldn’t stop trembling slightly.
Liu Ming released a black light to cover Qian Rupin’s body.
The black air on Qian Rupin’s face faded quickly. After a while, her face finally returned to normal. She couldn’t help but let out a soft breath.
“Although you can hide in the Yin Conversion Gourd, the technique you learn contradict with the yin qi. If staying inside for a long time, it may cause damage to your body.” Liu Ming dissipated the black light in his hand and said a little regretfully.
“I’m sorry, Brother Ming. If you were the only one, you would have been able to get rid of those beastkins long ago.” Qian Rupin lowered her head and said apologetically.
“What nonsense. I really didn’t expect that a seemingly ordinary mineral vein would cause Silver Tiger Race to send a Celestial State powerhouse to guard it. If I had known that Silver Tiger Race is so unreasonable, I would have gone around it.” Liu Ming shook his head, said with a wry smile and launched several symbols.
Daiyue Jade Boat’s escape speed increased greatly, turning into a misty phantom that dashed into the distance.
…
1 year later.
In a small city in the middle of the Savage Wild Continent, which was originally quite deserted, it was bustling with cultivators of various races traveling from south to north.
In the center of the city, there was a rather luxurious restaurant. It was called “River Seeing Pavilion”. At this moment, the third floor of the restaurant was almost full of people.
The guests here were basically beastkin cultivators ranged from the Condensation Period to the Real Pellet State. Almost everyone in the restaurant would look out of the city from time to time when drinking tea.
Standing on the third floor and looking out into the distance, one could clearly see that less than a hundred miles away from the city, there were vast and boundless waters.
For some reason, monstrous huge waves were constantly rising in the river at this moment. The endless huge waves roll up to a height of hundreds of meters. Between the huge waves, there were thick green tornadoes whistling, connecting the sky and the river. This scene was like the end of the world.
The terrifying waves and the sound of the tornado were like thousands of thunders roaring from the sky. Even a hundred miles away, there were still rumbling sounds in his ears. At the same time, an overwhelming surging aura rushed toward his face one after another.
Fortunately, whether it was raging waves or hurricanes, they were all confined to the surface of the river, making this small city a hundred miles away relatively calm.
“Brother Shen, I have long heard that the scene of the surging Fury River is magnificent. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its reputation! It is truly an unrivaled scene.” In a corner of the restaurant, 3 people were drinking and talking at the same table. It was a man in a green robe. There was a faint layer of purple aura on his seemingly ordinary face.
The other 2 was a girl in white clothes and a burly beastkin cultivator with fiery red curly hair and long pointed ears. A red mace about the size of 3 meters was casually leaning on his body. A flame lion pattern was engraved on it. One could tell it was not ordinary at a glance.
The girl in white clothes just lowered her head to drink tea, and the man in a green robe seemed to be chatting happily with the red-haired burly man.
“Haha, since Brother Liu comes from the west, you will naturally find it magnificent! In fact, it’s nothing special. The reason why the river here is so rampant is rumored to be because of the imbalance in a spiritual vein under the river. The red-haired burly man picked up a bowl-sized wine gla.s.s, drank the alcohol inside, and said indifferently.
“Oh, I’m indeed easily impressed.” The man in a green robe said with a smile.
This man in a green robe was naturally Liu Ming.
He and Qian Rupin had gone through untold hardships and crossed many tribes and mountain ranges to reach this place during the past year, but now they were blocked by this huge river.
“The Fury River is more than 10,000 miles wide. The waters and air currents on the river are violent now. Even if a Celestial State beastkin cultivator forcibly cross the river at this moment, he may fall if he is not careful. Besides, the danger on the Fury River is far from this.” The red-haired burly man seemed to remember something and said with a trace of fear.
Liu Ming frowned when he heard this. Qian Rupin who was beside him also looked up in surprise.
“Can Brother Shen tell me more about it?” Liu Ming asked with a serious expression.
He and Qian Rupin had just arrived here, so they hadn’t heard much about the Fury River.
“Hehe, you are really asking the right person. In fact, in this Fury River, there lives a fish beastkin called a fierce shuttle. This beastkin is only the size of a thumb, and its strength is not too high, but it has sharp teeth and is extremely bloodthirsty by nature. It often moves in a group of tens of thousands of them. Wherever they move, there will be no corpse left.” The red-haired burly man said mysteriously.
Hearing this, Qian Rupin turned pale again.
Liu Ming also frowned. The strong wind and huge waves on the river were enough to cause headaches, and there were such fierce fishes. It would be extremely difficult to cross the river.
“But Brother Liu, don’t worry. The violent weather on the Fury River still has seasons. In a month or so, the air flow on the river will weaken. At that time, the cultivators gathered in the city will cross the river in unison. If many people act together, there is no danger.” The red-haired burly man said with a laugh.
“Thank you, Brother Shen.” Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, but he was thinking to go to the city to collect some information about the dangerous places on the remaining journey.
…
3 years later.
In a gloomy forest, Liu Ming was wearing a simple black robe made of beast hide. He jumped from tree to tree like a bouncy ball.
A large piece of thick dark clouds floated above the forest. Sometimes it would roll slightly. If one looked closely at the dark clouds in the sky, he would find that the dark clouds was actually formed by an endless number of black insects.
While Liu Ming was moving forward, his eyes looked up to the sky from time to time. He looked solemn in his eyes.
At this moment, he was completely relying on his own physical strength to move forward, not daring to use spiritual power at all.
“Roar!“
Just as he was advancing rapidly, a long black shadow charged out of the jungle. It was a 30 meters giant black python. It bit toward Liu Ming.
Liu Ming snorted. A purple sword appeared in his hand after a flash.
The two figures quickly moved past each other. Several purple sword shadows flashed, and the black python was cut into several sections. The snake blood that splashed around emitted a disgusting b.l.o.o.d.y smell.
Liu Ming’s body turned flexibly without being stained by the blood. After a few jumps, he disappeared into the distance at a faster speed.
At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky swayed for a while, and the clouds dropped. Countless black insects flew down, covering the corpse of the python.
After a while, the black insects flew back into the sky again and turned into dark clouds again. On the other hand, the python on the ground had turned into white skeletons. All the flesh and blood had been devoured.
…
5 years later.
On a rugged mountain road, a convoy of hundreds of people was slowly walking forward.
The beastkin that pulled the cart was a camel beastkin. It was very large, about 24 meters long. It was covered with faint yellow fine fluff. It had 4 thick and big hooves, which allowed it to walk swiftly on the uneven mountain roads.
This camel beastkin was only at the Condensation Period at most when it reached adulthood. However, the camel beastkin had a gentle temperament and could adapt to various harsh environments. It was very suitable for caravans to transport large items.
The cart pulled by the camel beastkin had no wheels. Some runes were engraved on the bottom of the truck, which condensed a large cloud of white mist that lifted the cart several feet high.
Such a cart was very convenient for transporting goods. It was not restricted by the terrain.
Surrounding the caravan were some guards with blue wings. They looked at the surroundings vigilantly.
At this moment, an old man in a gray robe flew out from a certain wooden cart in front of him. After a few flashes, he landed in a blue wooden cart behind the team and knocked on the door.
The door opened with a creak, and Liu Ming came out.
“Mr. Liu, this is the golden needle gra.s.s you want. Please have a look.” The old man in a gray robe took out a wooden box from his arms and handed it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming reached out to take it and opened the lid. Inside was an eight inch long golden spiritual gra.s.s. The leaves of the gra.s.s were shaped like golden needles, emitting a strong strange smell.
“This golden needle gra.s.s is about 400 years old. Just what I want.” Liu Ming nodded with a smile.
“It’s good if you can use it.” Seeing this, the old man in a gray robe said with laughter.
“Here is an inner pellet of a Real Pellet State ground dragon beast. It should be enough to exchange for this golden needle gra.s.s. Elder Lan, please accept it.” Liu Ming took out a white jade box and handed it to the old man in a gray robe.
When the old man in a gray robe heard the word “ground dragon beast”, he opened the jade box to check it. It was a fist-sized inner pellet that exuded pure earth attribute spiritual power fluctuations.
The old man nodded, put the jade box away and left without saying more.
