Chapter 144
Huzhou Prefecture City.
The afterglow of the sunset was covered with a golden ray of gold on the two stone lions at the Lin Mansion gate. Lin Qingwan, wearing a white pink patterned fur and a silver-green feather pendant on her neck, was even more gorgeous by the golden afterglow. However, at this moment, her face was full of worry, and her beautiful eyes looked at the end of the stone road from time to time, and several figures could appear there.
Crack.
The heavy mahogany door opens.
Zou Hutou limped over. He looked up at the sky and whispered: "Miss, it's time to go back. It will be dangerous after dark in a while."
Lin Qingwan pinched the pink sweat towel and half bit her lower lip, "Wait a minute, if they return today, it will be the time, and now they are coming back soon."
"Miss, that's Bailang Mountain. Even the master and more than a dozen masters of Rongli have never come out. Although your friends are amazing, Bailang Mountain is a place for demons..." Zou Hutou sighed, "Besides, they just went there today, so it will take three or four days. Miss, you should go back home and wait slowly."
How could Lin Qingwan not know this in her heart? But she still couldn't help but look forward to it. Besides, it's okay to stay in the mansion now.
Just as he was about to speak, a clear sound of horse hooves came from a distance, and then the figures of Xu Hao and others appeared in Lin Qingwan's sight.
"Young Master Xu and the others are back!" Lin Qingwan said happily, and the worries in her heart immediately dissipated. No matter what, she finally saw Xu Hao and others again.
Not long after, Xu Hao and the others stopped at the door of Lin Mansion.
Seeing that Mu Yu and others had torn clothes, they obviously had experienced a fierce battle. Lin Qingwan couldn't help but step forward and said, "Mr. Xu, Miss Mu, are you injured?"
Mu Yu whispered: "Miss Lin, don't worry, our injuries are not serious, but I'm going to ask you to get some medicinal materials that can nourish you."
Lin Qingwan nodded quickly and ordered Zou Hutou to go to the pharmacy to get the medicinal materials.
Xu Hao threw the reins of the horse to an escort and said apologetically: "Miss Lin, the situation in Bailang Mountain is a bit special. Today we have not had time to find your father's trace, so please forgive me."
"It's okay, just be safe and sound." Lin Qingwan shook her head and arranged for the remaining servants to boil water and cook.
After entering the Lin Mansion, the sky became dark after some washing.
Front yard hall.
Xu Hao and others sat on a round table to eat, which seemed very lively.
Lin Qingwan seemed to like this lively atmosphere very much. While eating, she asked Xiu'er about her visit to Bailang Mountain today.
Xiu'er said something simple, which surprised Lin Qingwan.
Xu Hao drank alone, and Chu Zhi next to him toast a few glasses from time to time. After a meal, the moonlight slowly climbed up to the eaves.
In the courtyard of the back house.
Xu Hao stood down the moonlight and walked back. Today's ancient temple was indeed a bit unusual. Bailang Mountain actually had a blood-melting realm, and there were more than one. This really surprised him. Of course, he didn't take it seriously, but the other party occupied a mountain range in Huzhou. After he claimed the name of the Bai tribe, the other party hesitated and even seemed to be reluctant to leave. In his opinion, it was too abnormal.
You should know that the Bai tribe is the first demon clan force in the Annan Domain.
Not to mention the Centipede clan that has no blood-level demon king training, even if there are several powerful demon kings, they dare not disobey the Bai clan. Even if the Bai clan and the Yan Python Black Dragon clan are fighting at the same time, they are too busy to take care of themselves, other demon clans dare not offend the Bai clan.
What's more, Huzhou is only a corner of Yue Kingdom. If there is no other pressure, the centipede tribe will occupy it. But now he said that this is the jurisdiction of the Bai tribe. According to normal circumstances, the centipede tribe should move out of Yue Kingdom immediately.
"It seems that this White Wolf Mountain is not ordinary, otherwise the centipede clan would not have such an attitude!" Xu Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. In fact, even if there are treasures in Bai Wolf Mountain, it is not very attractive to him. After all, the more you understand the world, the more you will understand. Most of the so-called opportunities such as genius treasures are only suitable for the demon clan, but not for humans at all. On the contrary, if humans encounter it, there will be dangers. In other words, this world is an environment suitable for the survival of the demon clan.
But since I caught up, Xu Hao naturally would not let it go. At least he had to find out what secrets were hidden in Bailang Mountain.
"Master, haven't you rested yet?" At this time, a gentle voice interrupted Xu Hao's thoughts.
He turned around and saw Mu Yu walking towards her face wearing a black fox fur coat with only a white lining inside. Her cheeks were slightly red and her rosy red lips looked very attractive against the dim light.
Xu Hao frowned and said, "Why, the injury has not recovered yet?"
As he said that, he turned his steps and his palm was already on Mu Yu's wrist. His skin was tender and smooth and had a good touch, but Xu Hao had no other thoughts and carefully sensed Mu Yu's condition. "I was negligent. The spider demon attack was highly poisonous. That palm not only hurts you, but the toxins also immerse your internal organs."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but scold, "I don't know how to explain it to me if I have such injuries."
Mu Yu's cheeks were red, she nodded slightly, and said in a subtle voice: "This injury is not a problem. Those toxins are only immersed in the surface, and it takes some time to remove them."
Xu Hao rolled his eyes, and a strong burning gas instantly poured into Mu Yu's body, clearing the remaining toxins in the blink of an eye. Soon Mu Yu's cheeks gradually returned to normal rosy.
"Okay, you can take some medicinal herbs tomorrow."
Mu Yu shrank back his wrist and changed the topic: "Master, what should I do next? There should be more powerful demons in Bailang Mountain?"
Xu Hao nodded, "Yes, there are indeed many demons in the deep hinterland of Bailang Mountain. I will go there again in a few days. You will rest in the Lin Mansion. After you get rid of these demons, you will be busy with the number of wandering ghosts."
Mu Yu's eyes darkened, "I just blame my disciple for being incompetent and not being able to help the master."
"It's not your fault. You can easily compete with or even kill ordinary demons. Now it seems that you can at least achieve great strength in Qihai Realm. When you break through Qihai and reach the Ningyuan Realm, you will be able to help me." Xu Hao smiled. Although the Ningyuan Realm can only barely compete with the Blood Modified Realm demons, it is absolutely more than enough to deal with some demons in the Blood Realm, because when you reach the Ningyuan Realm, the Dantian Qihai induces and absorbs higher levels of vital energy, and the internal qi turns into vital energy, which will significantly increase both lethality and recovery power.
What is particularly important is that when you reach the Condensation Yuan, your body's bloodline attribute potential will be stimulated, making it easier to realize the domain ability. Of course, it is not used for demons. Even if you reach the Condensation Yuan, you must rely on your own understanding to have the domain.
"Well, I will continue to work hard and strive to help the master as soon as possible!" Mu Yu pointed his head.
Xu Hao smiled and gently patted the shoulder that was afraid of Mu Yu, "Okay, go back and rest. Your injury has not healed, and you still need sleep."
Seeing Mu Yu walk into the room, Xu Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The demon of this world is too strong and powerful. He wants to go further. He is unable to achieve his strength by relying solely on his own. Mu Yu's qualifications are much stronger than Xiu'er, but the road to martial arts is too difficult. I don't know if Mu Yu can reach the level he wants.
...
Six days passed quickly.
The ancient temple cave of Bailang Mountain.
In the bottom of the hot and hot magma pool, a huge centipede that was hundreds of meters long was hovering. In the center of it, three blood-colored flowers grew, one of which was obviously more mature, with four ice soul beads hanging above its stamens.
However, the ice soul beads are dim and light at this moment, and there are even cracks on the surface.
"It's a pity that one missing must have been taken away by the guy named Xu. If there was that one, I would not only enter the blood training realm, but also stabilize my bloodlines. But now..." The huge centipede gritted her teeth, and a pair of lantern-sized eyes stared at the mature flowers. When the stamens emitted an unusual fragrance, it opened its hideous bloody mouth and swallowed it.
boom.
As the entire flower was swallowed, a strong soul and blood energy surged into the body of the huge centipede. It roared and roared, and its hard body shattered inch by inch, and blood overflowed, but soon spread throughout the body, covering layers of earthy yellow light, and the shattered skin slowly recovered, while the breath of the huge centipede grew rapidly.
Outside the cave.
Several elders of the centipede tribe from the blood-melting realm gathered together.
"The critical moment for the clan leader to transform. If the clan leader comes, we must delay it until the clan leader breaks through!" The second elder said in a deep voice.
"yes."
call out.
At this moment, a stream of light broke through the sky and quickly landed in front of the main hall of the ancient temple. The person who came was Xu Hao. As soon as he landed on the ground, he couldn't help frowning. The violent aura from the main hall was obviously a monster breaking through.
"At this level, it seems that he is breaking through the blood training crystal..." Xu Hao sneered. With his current strength, let alone the demon king, even the fifth level of the blood training realm that is comparable to the great demon king, he may not be his opponent.
Whoosh swish swish swish.
One by one, figures broke out.
"Elder Xu!" The second elder of the Centipede clan stepped forward with a smile and greeted him.
Xu Hao said lightly: "The time limit has come. Have you considered it? But it seems that I was at the wrong time today. I guess the one who broke through it must be your patriarch?"
The second elder of the Centipede Clan felt a little nervous, but his expression remained unchanged. He bowed and said, "It is indeed our Centipede Clan leader. I have some insights in seclusion recently. I have made a breakthrough. Please forgive me and go to the palace to rest."
As he said that, he stepped forward and handed a bag of blood crystals, "If you are negligent, please do not blame Elder Xu. When the clan leader's retreat is over, we will definitely move out of here."
Hearing this, Xu Hao nodded slightly, took the blood crystal bag, and said with a smile: "Well, since there is nothing wrong, just wait in the hall."
When all the elders of the Centipede Clan heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Enter the main hall.
The elder of the Centipede tribe immediately ordered the tribe to prepare wine, fruits, etc. "Elder Xu, this is the unique fruit dates of Bailang Mountain. They are crispy and sweet, you can try them."
Xu Hao picked up one, put it in his mouth, nodded and said, "Yes, it's indeed sweet and delicious. But after all, ordinary things have no effect on me and such bloodlines. Second elder, if you want to improve, you must at least spend some effort on food."
"Although we are a demon, we have difficulty in improving every step, we must pay more attention to details because of this. Only by accumulating for a long time can we achieve the opportunity to make a breakthrough one day."
After hearing this, the elders of the Centipede Clan couldn't help but nodded, "Elder Xu is worthy of being a vassal of the Bai clan. This understanding alone is far from enough."
As we exchanged greetings and talks, the atmosphere of the cave became more and more intense and the power became higher and higher.
Xu Hao smiled and said, "I have seen many great monsters who have broken through the Blood Training Realm. It is a blessing that your Centipede Clan's tribe can break through. With the Demon King of the Blood Training Realm, you Centipede Clan can also gain a foothold in the Annan Domain!"
The second elder of the Centipede Clan sighed: "Yes, whether it is the Annan Domain or the Poison Mist Swamp, if the clan wants to gain a foothold, he must have a demon king in the Blood Realm, otherwise he can only become a poor vassal. Elder Xu, look at the jurisdiction of Huzhou..."
Xu Hao shook his head and stood up, "It's not that I'm not compatible, but that the territory of Yue is more important, otherwise the Bai people wouldn't have assigned me to inspect it in person!"
The elders of the Centipede Clan looked at each other and made a decision. This White Wolf Mountain was an opportunity for the rise of their Centipede Clan, and they would not be able to move away no matter what.
boom.
At this time, a powerful bloodline aura emanated. Under this aura, the elders of the centipede clan were faintly unstable, and Xu Hao also felt the bloodline pressure of the demon king.
"Hahaha... Elder Xu is here in my centipede tribe. I have misunderstood my negligence. Please forgive me if I am negligent!" As he spoke, a middle-aged man with long red hair appeared in the hall. He was full of hot air, but he had a heavy smell.
Xu Hao waved his hand and congratulated him: "It's okay, it's a blessing that the Centipede Clan leader can break through the Demon King of the Blood Training Realm."
The Centipede Tribe leader laughed, "Yes, I've been lucky enough to break through. I heard that Elder Xu asked my Centipede Tribe to move away from Bailang Mountain. I wonder if this matter can be compatible!"
Xu Hao shook his head, "I have said it before, I can't be able to adapt!"
"Since that's the case..." The centipede leader's expression suddenly turned cold, and a powerful blood breath surged out, and the air in the hall even became stagnant.
Xu Hao's expression changed slightly, he glanced at the surroundings and said lightly: "Centipede Clan, what do you mean?"
At this time, the other Centipede Clan elders occupied the surroundings and blocked all the escape directions. The Centipede Clan elders looked cold: "What's the point? Humph, my Centipede Clan only occupies a corner of Huzhou. If you let us move away as soon as you come, is it too arrogant and unreasonable?"
"So, do you want to do it? Are you not afraid of offending the Bai clan?" Xu Hao said coldly.
"We are afraid, of course we are afraid, but this Annan Domain is not the Bai tribe who has the final say. When we kill you, we will surrender to the Flame Python tribe. Even if the Bai tribe knows, there is nothing we can do!" said the Centipede Tribe leader, waved his hand, "Go!"
Boom boom boom boom.
Five centipede elders from the Blood-Transforming Realm raised their hands and slapped them, and a yellowish print was faintly condensed in the entire hall.
Chapter completed!
