8: An honest guide, Planning to pick the ripe fruit (Part 1)
Purple Mountain"s open terrain was different from the steep and high alt.i.tude observed by the outside world.
The internal roads were crisscrossed, flashing with various colors as they stretched in all directions.
The misty purple light was hanging down like a giant mountain overhead, giving people an inexplicable pressure.
The rocks were scattered, and the stone walls were covered with various marks from swords, halberds, and claws, which seemed to be telling of the battle that took place here in the past.
The moment Jiang Chen and the black-robed old man rushed in, they felt a majestic and terrifying pressure, descending from above their heads, as if to crush them.
"Is it possible that there is something suppressed in this Purple Mountain?"
The black-robed old man frowned, and he casually found a path to walk. He couldn"t help cursing, and threw Jiang Chen to the ground with a dissatisfied expression.
"Many thanks to Senior Black Robe for saving my life again, this junior will never forget it."
After Jiang Chen got up, he didn"t blame the black-robed old man for his rude behavior, instead, he respectfully bowed to him, and was very grateful.
He was really desperate just now as there was no way to resist. Even the Immortal Boat Spirit in his mind didn"t have time to save him.
But he never expected that the black-robed old man would follow him in the dark, and once again rescue him, making him both grateful and excited.
"Don’t be so grateful, brat. When you can let the old man have some snacks, that would be the greatest grat.i.tude to the old man."
The old man in the black robe coldly snorted, and was very dissatisfied, "You said that you are not good at cultivating in Divine Ruins Sect? When your cultivation is successful, you will be thinking about revenge, but you will not listen to the old man. You felt that you had a little bit of ability, and wanted to get involved in everything."
"If the old man can save you once, do you think that the old man can save you all the time? It"s not that you don"t know how terrifying Gu Changge is, but you still went to provoke him."
"If there is a next time, this old man is not going to help you…"
Although the black-robed old man was scolding him, knowing that he was really worried about him, Jiang Chen couldn"t help but feel warm in his heart.
Although the black-robed old man was not a good person, he had tried to save him many times.
On the other hand, Gu Changge, Ji Yaoxing, and others, although they had a righteous att.i.tude, their actions were many times more ruthless than the black-robed old man.
"Senior, I know. After the matter here is resolved, I will find a place to cultivate Demonic Art of Ten Thousand Transformations, and I will only emerge when my cultivation is successful."
Jiang Chen"s face was resolute, and he promised.
From the events of the past few days, he had deeply felt the importance of power in this world.
Why could Gu Changge easily oppress Ji Chu Yue, Ji Yaoxing, and others, making them respectful and in awe, wasn’t it because Gu Changge was better than them?!
"It"s useless to say these things now. That Gu Changge will definitely not let you go. This Purple Mountain is very mysterious, and this old man here is also deeply restricted. It will be difficult to help you."
"If you can"t find a way out here, you"ll end up dead. Revenge? Hehe."
The black-robed old man sneered, looking rather disdainful.
Jiang Chen also understood the importance of this matter, there was no way out, and there were people chasing behind them, so he quickly communicated with the Good Fortune Immortal Boat Spirit in his mind.
It was said that after entering Purple Mountain, it had the means to fight against the rest of the enemies.
This gave Jiang Chen a glimmer of hope.
"Don"t worry, little Chen, I feel a familiar aura here, it"s like something left by an old acquaintance of the Immortal Palace. You and I, as the spirit and body of the Immortal Boat, would not encounter anything dangerous here."
Good fortune Immortal Boat Spirit replied in self-belief.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was also overjoyed, and he didn"t doubt it.
Although sometimes the Immortal Boat was very unreliable, at this time, the two of them were gra.s.shoppers on a rope, how could it be joking?
"No, someone broke in from outside, you have to hurry to the depths, this old man will block them for you."
However, at this moment, the black-robed old man seemed to notice something.
His expression suddenly changed, and he said to Jiang Chen, looking a little anxious.
"Are they chasing?"
Jiang Chen"s complexion also changed suddenly, realizing the urgency of the matter, he would only become a burden to the black-robed old man by staying here.
But he still didn"t run away immediately, but asked, "What about you, senior?"
"Don"t worry. After the old man blocks them, he will naturally have a way to escape and come to meet you. Before that, you must find a way to survive, otherwise, Gu Changge will catch up and we"ll both die."
The face of the black-robed old man was unprecedentedly heavy.
After that, his figure walked towards the road from where they entered just now.
The terrifying aura spread in all directions, and in the palm of his hand, there was a black long sword shrouded in black light. As it was slashed at the many cultivators who were chasing, it seemed to have broken through the void, which looked extremely powerful.
The people who were chasing vomited blood and retreated. They were not the opponent of someone in the Great Sacred Realm.
"Senior, you have to be careful. I will leave the route according to the techniques you taught, you must follow!"
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and didn"t dare to stay for a long time. After saying such a sentence, the figure fled to the depths of Purple Mountain.
Although the majestic and terrifying aura above his head was hanging down as if it would fall at any time and it would completely crush people.
But he didn"t care about it, believing in the words of the Immortal Boat, he fled to the depths and did not dare to stay.
Boom!!!
The terrifying battle sound resounded in Purple Mountain in an instant, alarming the mysterious creatures sleeping in many corners as they were attracted to the sound.
Un.o.bstructed throughout the way.
The closer one got to the depths of Purple Mansion, the more one could feel its horror.
Between some rocks, the purple mist was seeping out, which was very mysterious, but also very dangerous.
Jiang Chen saw with his own eyes that a mysterious creature of the Purple Mountain turned into a blood mist in an instant when it was stained with that purple mist.
This made his heart shake, and a terrifying chill appeared on his back.
And with the help of the Immortal Boat Spirit, the envoy reversed the trend of the terrain here, and he also went deep into it without any danger.
After some creatures with terrifying aura noticed him, they didn"t do anything to him, just glanced at him, as if they saw one from the same kind, and didn"t pay attention.
This made Jiang Chen greatly relieved, and his tense heartstrings finally relaxed.
"Little Chen, keep walking, I already feel the location of the palace, if I guessed correctly, we are going to become rich."
The tone of the spirit of the Immortal Boat contained excitement as if they had seen a treasure opened for them.
Jiang Chen nodded, didn"t stop, and continued to walk into it according to the words of the immortal boat.
It was just that after reaching the cave, his expression changed drastically.
It could be seen that the four walls were covered with blood, which had long been dried up, but it was shocking, and he wondered what had happened there.
A layer of white withered bones could be seen under the feet, with different shapes. They belonged to the human and other races. They were as bright as jade, and there were also skeletons as black as ink. They were extremely tall, like a hill.
And after getting here, the road ahead was cut off.
Instead, a st.u.r.dy and indestructible stone wall appeared, displaying the same light and material as Purple Mansion. With his strength, it was impossible to blast it away.
The material of this Purple Mountain was extremely st.u.r.dy and very special. Even if the cultivators fought in it, it would not be destroyed in the slightest.
"Is this a dead end?"
Jiang Chen frowned, he didn"t expect to follow the instructions of the Immortal Boat of Good Fortune, but after arriving here, he was still stopped.
"Don"t worry first, there must be a way here, let me take a look." The Good Fortune Immortal Boat Spirit said so.
Jiang Chen nodded.
Then, the phantom of an ancient flying boat emerged from the position between Jiang Chen"s eyebrows, and then slowly merged into the stone wall in front of him, as if it was about to penetrate to the other side.
"There really is a way here…"
The surprised voice of the Immortal Boat artifact spirit sounded.
"Really?" Jiang Chen also revealed a surprise.
"I"m just opening this stone wall, and no one can open it except me. The hardness of this purple mountain is far beyond imagination. I suspect that it is not a thing from this world. Even if Gu Changge came here, he would not be able to go through it!"
Immortal Boat Spirit said confidently.
At the same time, a kind of light appeared. It seemed that the veins like stars were intertwined here, and finally manifested on the stone wall as then connected together.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a huge sound like the opening of the sky, the rocks moved aside, and the stone walls opened wide!
