Ye Fan temporarily shared an attic with Huo Guangcheng and other businessmen in Gujie Village.
Gujie Village is a very strange place.
As the time for entering the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods in the last month approaches, more and more people gather in the Ancient World Village. Those who plan to enter and exit the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods will arrive in advance during this last month in order to enter the Ancient Gods in time. ancient land.
At peak times, thousands of people often gather in this ancient village.
These thousands of martial masters and martial cultivators in the Wuhou realm spend a lot of money on eating, drinking and having fun. This is of course the time when merchants are most useful. Huo Guangcheng and his group of merchants are quite busy, selling their various goods everywhere in the village, making some small money while taking advantage of the crowds and bustle.
There are too many people in the Ancient World Village, and there is a lack of enough places for recreation. There are no guards to maintain order. The well-fed and well-fed martial arts cultivators have nowhere to vent their energy, and they often find trouble and cause disputes.
Although due to thousands of years of customs in Gujie Village, people who have disputes dare not easily take action in the village, it is common for people to fight and block people outside the village because of trivial matters.
Gujie Village is bounded by a simple fence. If you step outside the fence, you will be killed. You can often see shouting and bloody fights happening outside the village.
But there was still peace inside the fence, and the bloody battle outside the village was completely oblivious.
As long as it doesn't affect the village, no one cares whether people die outside the village.
Many idle and bored martial arts cultivators were watching the battle in the village, and even placed bets on who would win among those fighting outside the village.
But all this has nothing to do with Mark.
Apart from occasionally going out every few days to inquire about changes in the wind direction in Ghost Howling Gorge, he spends most of his time in seclusion in his room, concentrating on practicing his three series of rune combat skills of ice, wind and thunder.
Although he has no room to continue to make breakthroughs at the peak level of the three series of martial arts, he has almost unlimited room for expansion in terms of the number of combat skills he can practice.
There are as many rune combat skills in Shenwu Continent as there are princes crossing the river. Movement speed type, strength type, agility type, instant burst type, poison type, illusion type, escape type...the combat skills combined by these types are as numerous as billions of stars. Even if you meet the knowledgeable martial arts cultivator, you can't know how many combat skills there are.
As long as Ye Fan is willing, he can practice all third-level rune combat skills including blood, ice, wind, and thunder.
Of course, Ye Fan didn't want to bite off more than he could chew, so Ye Fan didn't practice all the combat skills.
During the year when he flew to the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods on the Golden Eagle Beast Lord, with Shang's help, he specially selected many of the top third-order runic combat skills from these four major series for practice.
There is an essential difference between practicing rune combat skills and understanding the martial arts.
To understand the heart of martial arts is to have a profound understanding of a certain secret, and this understanding often occurs in an instant.
The cultivation of rune combat skills involves the superb application of the mysteries comprehended, with emphasis on techniques. This requires a lot of repeated practice to achieve superb application of techniques.
If there is not enough understanding of the profound truth itself, it is naturally impossible to use the profound truth with maximum efficiency.
Ye Fan can use these rune combat skills to reach the peak of the Wuhou realm, and even reach an unparalleled level of perfection.
However, it is impossible to display the power of King Wu's combat skills.
Unless he uses Shang's "Martial God to Perform Martial Arts", he will be able to obtain the fighting power of the King of Martial Realm in an extremely brief moment. But it was only an instantaneous burst of combat power, which consumed a huge amount of his energy and blood and could not last long.
After the recent year of flying to the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods, Ye Fan and his heart have completely given up on breaking through the martial arts.
His heart has been locked by the exquisite heart lock of the Fox Saint's Seven Apertures.
This heart lock is like a large and exquisite net covering his heart. There are seven exquisite heart-asking locks on it, which completely seals the heart. All the heart-asking locks must be opened to break the seven exquisite heart locks.
Whenever Ye Fan tried to understand some profound meaning, this blood net always enveloped his heart, as if a hazy blood color between heaven and earth obscured his vision and made his mind feel blurry.
Ye Fan was very sad and angry.
He was very helpless and could only give up his desire to understand the martial arts and focus on the training of more runic combat skills and various combat techniques. Even if he cannot break through the realm of King Wu, he will still become the strongest No. 1 Wu Hou in the Shenwu Continent and the most dazzling one.
…
January passed.
Late that night, Huo Guangcheng hurriedly came outside Ye Fan's wing and said in a slightly anxious voice: "Brother Ye, the wind in Ghost Howling Gorge is about to stop, a few hours earlier than expected. Let's go quickly. Gather at the ferry outside Gujie Village to grab a good spot to cross the Ghost Howling Gorge."
"good!"
Ye Fan was closing his eyes and meditating, rehearsing fighting skills in his mind. Hearing Huo Guangcheng's voice coming from outside the door, he immediately got up and went out to meet Huo Guangcheng, Liao Wenhuo, Jia Xu and other Wuhou and Wuzun merchants.
The businessmen left the attic in a hurry and headed towards a cliff next to Gujie Village.
This cliff is on the edge of the Ghost Howling Gorge and is the closest place to the other side of the Ghost Howling Gorge, only ten miles away.
For an ordinary Wuhou, it would take about twenty breaths to fly over this distance.
Wu Zun cannot fly, so they must wait for Wu Hou to tie a ten-mile rope on both sides of the Ghost Howling Gorge, and then cross over on the rope. For Wu Zun, it is longer and the time required is naturally longer.
Most of the other places in the Ghost Howling Gorge are more than thirty or forty miles away. The further the distance, of course, the longer it takes to cross the Ghost Howling Gorge. The danger increases tenfold for every ten miles.
Sometimes there are only dozens of breaths to pass through the Ghost Howling Gorge, so basically no one would consider crossing the Ghost Howling Gorge from other places.
When Ye Fan, Huo Guangcheng and a group of dozens of Wuhou Wuzun arrived, they found that a large group of people had already gathered on the cliff.
More than a thousand martial arts cultivators have already lined up on this cliff, preparing to fly across.
Although the number of people was large and chaotic, they were orderly.
All the martial arts cultivators will consciously line up and abide by the order here.
The king comes first.
There is no doubt that King Wu is at the forefront of this huge team preparing to enter the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods, and can be the first to fly across the Ghost Howling Gorge. No matter when they arrive at the ferry at Gujie Village, they are always the first group at the front.
The rest of the teams are also prioritized based on their strength.
If there is no distinction between the two, then queue up in the order of arrival time.
Ye Fan and Huo Guangcheng were a group of businessmen who arrived a little late. They were ranked behind thousands of people, which was considered relatively late.
When Huo Guangcheng saw so many people, he couldn't help but show a bit of worry and anxiety.
"Brother Huo, what's wrong?"
Ye Fan said.
Huo Guangcheng sighed: "The wind direction in the Ghost Howling Gorge changes at no fixed time. Sometimes it is very short, even only a few dozen breaths, and as long as a stick of incense. We are a little behind this time. If we are not lucky, Okay, if the time is too short, a group of us may not be able to cross the Ghost Howling Gorge. But there is no way now. Those in front are all Wuhou teams with some strength. Unless it is a hard grab, no one will let them go. Take the front seat."
As a businessman, he obviously doesn't want to compete with others.
"How long will it take until it's our turn to pass!"
"At least a hundred breaths!"
"There's no rush, just wait! Maybe you'll be lucky, but it won't take long."
Ye Fan groaned.
Then he looked around the cliff.
I don't know who it was, but a thick column of green smoke rose from the edge of the cliff and floated into the sky above the Ghost Howling Gorge. Through this pillar of green smoke, you can judge the change of wind direction in Guihou Gorge.
This green smoke was blown completely sideways by the wind in Ghost Howling Gorge, which meant that the wind was so strong that it could not be flown across. But this column of green smoke is slowly straightening now, indicating that the wind direction in the canyon is about to reverse.
It looks like it will take a short while before the blue smoke will completely straighten out - this means that the wind in the Ghost Howling Gorge will stop briefly and it will be safe to fly across.
In this group of merchants, Liao Wenhuo looked at Guihou Gorge with great curiosity, and asked the gray-clothed old man Liao Hai: "Uncle Hai, why do you think there is such a strange grand canyon outside the ancient land of the ancestors? And such a big canyon? The canyon actually completely surrounds the Ancient Land of the Ancestral God, it's amazing!"
Liao Hai is one of her clan uncles who accompanies her to go out for business experience.
Liao Hai shook his head, expressing his ignorance.
"Sister Wen Hao, you don't know this!"
Jia Xu smiled and said: "This is the birthplace of Emperor Yin, one of the ancestral gods of the human race in ancient times. When he was still very young, he slashed out with his knife, and the endless power tore the earth apart. Directly penetrating the depths of the abyss, a large amount of earth fire and wind energy emerged, covering the entire sky. This is how the famous Ghost Howling Gorge emerged outside the ancient land of the Ancestral God!"
"This terrifying Ghost Howling Gorge was created by the ancestral god Yin Huang with his sword?"
Liao Wenhuo was shocked.
You must know that the Ghost Howling Gorge is dozens of miles wide, not many miles long, and a bottomless crack in the earth. It is an unimaginable miracle to cut out such a large crack with a single blow of human power.
She tilted her head and asked curiously: "But, what is the ancestor god Yin Huang doing to cut the ground?"
Jia Xu became more and more proud and looked forward with ease.
He deliberately learned a lot about the details of this ancient land of ancestor gods, just to show off at this moment.
"Because besides Emperor Yin, there was another ancestral god of the demon tribe who was born here. Human Ancestor and Demon Ancestor each led a tribe to survive here, and there were often disputes. In order to avoid destroying the mainland, Emperor Yin agreed with the other party at a certain date. Fighting within the scope. Therefore, Emperor Yin used a knife to cut the ground as a boundary, and this crack in the ground of Guihou Gorge was formed. From then on, this was the edge of the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods. After passing through the Ghost Howling Gorge, it was the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods. In ancient times, There are many places in the earth and sea that are more dangerous than this Ghost Howling Gorge."
