Chapter 402 Mountaineering
For a while, the whole continent of gods and demons had a feeling of wind and rain. Just as Xiao Lu climbed the Shenmo Mountain, in the territory of the Dragon Kingdom, a man rode on the road at night and soon disappeared at the corner. Even in the evening, the top of Shenmo Mountain is still as bright as day. There seems to be no night here.
"What's the matter with the Taoist friends driving to the mountain of gods and demons?" When Xiao Lu took the first step to step on the top of the God and Demon Mountain, an old voice changed. The sound appeared suddenly, and even Xiao Lu could not sense the existence of this person at the first time.
"Hmm!" Xiao Lu snorted coldly, and he directly released his mind. His mind enveloped the whole mountain in an instant. Soon, an old man came out.
That's an old Taoist priest with white hair and a white robe. The old Taoist has a childlike face, but Xiao Lu can clearly feel that there is an extremely powerful power in the old man's body. This old Taoist is not simple.
"Who are you?" Xiao Lu asked that although this old Taoist is very strong, he is still 108,000 miles away from himself. He can pinch the old Taoist with one finger. However, in this continent of gods and demons, monks with demigod cultivation are already the most powerful monks.
The cultivation of the old Taoist is obviously inferior to that of the demon corpse, but it is not much worse. Once he fights hard, it is still unknown who will kill the deer.
"The old man is the guardian of this mountain of gods and demons." The old man said with a smile on his face.
"Guardian of God and Demon Mountain?" Xiao Lu was a little surprised when he heard the words. Is this a mountain guard? In fact, there is nothing on the top of Shenmo Mountain. There is only a stone table in a pavilion with some fairy fruits. Obviously, the old man is enjoying his fairy fruits and fairy wine.
"You are very good at enjoying it." Xiao Lu smiled and said nothing more, and then walked directly to a platform.
"Taoist friend..." Seeing Xiao Lu walking to the platform, the old Taoist couldn't help but be extremely excited. He is the guardian of the God and Demon Mountain. Naturally, he knows the origin of this ancient array. This is a transmission array that can leave the God and Demon Continent.
"Can this person really open this transmission array?" In the distance, in front of a hut, the old man sat at a stone table. He couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Xiao Lu walking on the stage. However, as the guardian of this God and Demon Mountain, the old man is also arrogant. The other party's young appearance should have been cultivated in his youth.
However, on the whole continent of gods and demons, there are only a few demigod-level existences. The old man does not believe that this young man's cultivation is higher than himself.
Actually, most importantly, the old man did not think that Xiao Lu could open this ancient array. You know, no one in the whole continent of gods and demons should be able to open this transmission array, and even he himself does not have the ability. Suddenly, a person with no less cultivation than himself appeared, and the old man was somewhat shocked.
However, to the old man's surprise, Xiao Lu has not come down since he climbed the ancient platform, but just sat there. The days passed, and soon seven days passed.
At this time, a man came to ride at the foot of the Shenmo Mountain. This person was dressed in white. Judging from the clothes, this person should be a man, but from the figure and appearance of this person, he looks like a woman.
The man in white rode a black horse to a mountain temple under the Hill of Gods and Demons. The man looked at the sky, then stopped in front of the mountain temple, turned around and got off the horse, tied the black horse to a stone pillar next to the entrance of the mountain temple, and then walked into the mountain temple.
I don't know how many years this mountain temple has been built. It is dilapidated. Even the statues of the mountain gods worshipped in the temple have fallen down. The mountain temple is not big. There is nothing extra in the temple, but the stone tables in front of the statue are still intact.
In the area near Shenmo Mountain, there were many human races, but hundreds of years ago, Shenmo Mountain began to close down the mountain. With Shenmo Mountain as the center, few people lived within thousands of miles, and the temple of the mountain was abandoned as a result.
"Seven days..." The man in white came to the stone table in front of the statue, reached out and swept away the thick layer of dust on a stone bench, and then sat down.
"From thousands of miles away, I was exhausted and killed a few horses, and finally came here." The man in white said to herself that nearly half of the time had passed, but she was not in a hurry. She wanted to adjust her state and recover her strength in this mountain temple.
This man in white is Princess Aso of the Dragon Kingdom disguised as a man. Xiao Lu only gave her half a month. If she hadn't climbed to the top of the God and Demon Mountain in half a month, even if Princess Aso had the body of water travel, he would not have taken her as a picture.
If the master wants to accept apprentices, he will not be casual, and the apprentice will not be careless. The master is choosing an apprentice, but the apprentice is also choosing the master. Although Xiao Lu is in a fancy to Princess Aso's watery constitution, Prince Aso mainly can't meet his requirements, and he will not accept apprentices.
Princess Asu is also a person of cultivation. Although her cultivation level is very low, she has also cultivated her inner spirit. She meditated directly in the mountain temple. Time is fading, and the sky outside has completely darkened and it's nightfall. The area near Shenmo Mountain is rarely visited, and many beasts are haunted, and sometimes even fierce beasts can be seen.
"Roar!" The roar of unknown beasts came from the distance. Outside the mountain temple, the dark horse tied to the stone pillar became uneasy.
"Hmm?" A Su woke up from meditation. In this strange place, she did not dare to easily enter the deep cultivation. You know, no one would know if there was any danger here.
In the dark, many beasts and even fierce beasts come out to look for food. At night, it is the most dangerous place in the mountains, because there are too many poisonous insects and beasts in the mountains. Even people like Aso, who are not weak in combat power, have to be cautious.
And when Asu woke up, a dark shadow appeared outside the mountain temple, and a pair of green eyes loomed in the trees outside the mountain temple. The black horse immediately hissed and kept kicking the ground.
The shadow wandered among the trees for a while before coming out. This is a dark tiger walking silently. However, this is not an ordinary black tiger. There is a closed vertical eye on the eyebrows of this black tiger.
"Three-eyed Black Tiger?" At this time, Aso had come to the door of the mountain temple and was shocked to see the black tiger coming out of the trees.
"This is terrible." Aso carefully retreated to the mountain temple, but she knew that she was afraid that she had been noticed by the fierce beast. The fierce beast bit the horse's throat and swallowed the horse's blood, as if it didn't find Aso in the mountain temple at all.
The three-eyed black tiger is extremely ferocious. It does not eat the meat of the war horse, but only drinks the blood of the war horse, because the spirit of the war horse is in the blood. It only has blood, but rarely eats the meat of its prey.
"Roar!" The three-eyed black tiger roared and let go of the war horse. At this time, the war horse still did not die, but only gasped, and blood bubbles kept coming out of its mouth. The green eyes of the fierce beast swept into the mountain temple, and it sensed a breath stronger than the qi and blood of the war horse.
The three-eyed black tiger walked step by step towards the mountain temple, and his footsteps were so light that even the Aso inside could not be heard.
"It seems that you can't avoid it." Aso is the royal family of the Dragon Kingdom. Naturally, he knows many fierce beasts. This three-eyed black tiger has little ability, but he is best at sensing the breath of prey.
"Wo!" Just as the three-eyed black tiger entered the mountain temple, a bright sword light suddenly appeared, illuminating the dark void in an instant. The sword light flashed, and a blood light splashed on the body of the three-eyed black tiger. If it hadn't been for this fierce tiger, the fierce tiger would have been cut off by Aso's sword.
Even so, the three-eyed black tiger's neck was scratched by Aso's sword, drawing a deep blood mark and blood flowing. This is the difference between fierce beasts and human beings. Human beings have wisdom, and the wisdom of fierce beasts is far less than that of human beings.
Asu's sudden sword is to stimulate the fierce tiger's eyes with the bright sword light, make the fierce tiger reveal a fatal flaw, and then kill the fierce tiger on the spot with a sword. However, Aso's attack was unsuccessful. The three-eyed black tiger was not killed on the spot, but seriously injured.
"What a pity." Seeing the three-eyed black tiger rushing desperately out of the mountain temple, A Su couldn't help but regret that she did not chase it out, because it was dangerous outside, and the smell of blood could attract more fierce beasts, even fierce beasts. If a fierce beast like the three-eyed black tiger comes to two or three heads, it will be unlucky.
Asu thought for a moment, then walked out of the mountain temple, jumped on the roof of the mountain temple, and then sat on the roof. Sure enough, the roar of the escaped three-eyed black tiger came from the mountain forest in the distance, and the mountain forest was shaking, as if a powerful beast had cut off the three-eyed black tiger. Soon, the mountain forest returned to calm.
All this has nothing to do with Asu. She is waiting for dawn.
In this night, many fierce beasts haunted near the mountain temple. Aso knew that it was the bloody smell of the body of his war horse in front of the mountain temple that attracted these fierce beasts. The next day, as soon as dawn, Asu jumped off the roof of the mountain temple.
Asu dug a hole in the open space in front of the mountain temple, and then put the skeleton of the war horse into the big pit, and then buried it. After doing this, Asu went to the top of the mountain in the morning light.
The gods and demon mountain tower into the clouds. The higher it goes up, the more steep the mountain of the gods and demon mountain is. Some places are even completely cliffs, which are difficult to climb. Aso rested all night and recovered a lot of energy. When she began to climb the mountain, she was very fast and kept passing through dense forests and strange rocks.
It's only half a day, and it's already halfway up the mountain. However, next, Aso's speed slowed down greatly. Some fierce beasts began to appear on Shenmo Mountain, and the mountain became more and more dangerous.
When crossing a cliff, a golden eagle suddenly jumped down from the sky and almost caught A Su, and the golden eagle failed to attack, so it flapped its wings and avoided it far away.
"Hmm. Finally came." At this time, Xiao Lu, who was sitting in the center of the platform, suddenly opened his eyes on the top of the God and Demon Mountain. He sensed the breath of Aso and knew that she was coming to the top of the God and Demon Mountain.
This girl is really good and has great perseverance. Although he sometimes felt that Aso was in danger, Xiao Lu did not take action. He was always in front of a bystander. Even if Aso almost died several times, he was still motionless.
Asu's mind is extremely firm, and it seems that nothing can stop her pace. She keeps fighting with the fierce beasts on the mountain, which is the best way to accumulate combat experience.
"Kill!" Asu was under a cliff. After a big war, she finally killed a green wolf with one sword. There were countless fierce beasts lurking on the mountain of gods and demons. Aso killed them all the way up from below. Later, her hands trembled and she could hardly hold her sword.
In countless life-and-death fights, Aso has a deep understanding of martial arts.
