Chapter 128 Entering the Mountains
The valley was filled with smoke and dust.
"Roar!"
After countless blows, the ancient giant bear finally gave up and roared. The energy on its paws suddenly increased, and it slapped Xiao Yun nearly a hundred meters away.
Its hair had long been stained red with blood. Its two huge paws hung unnaturally at its waist, obviously injuring the bones. Its chest also collapsed slightly, and the roar from its throat was like a broken fan.
The ancient giant bear was in such a state, and Xiao Yun, its opponent, was not much better off. He was seen coming down the mountain wall with great difficulty. His originally brilliant thunder armor had already been beaten to pieces, and his left hand was also hanging down unnaturally. His body was in a terrible state, and his bones were all broken to varying degrees.
Xiao Yun opened his mouth slightly, and a stream of blood rushed up from his throat. He was able to fight the ancient demon bear until now, entirely relying on his fierceness. The feeling of being beyond life and death made his blood boil.
"Huh!" He exhaled lightly, and with his right hand trembling, he took out a jade bottle from the storage ring. There were many recovery pills in it, such as Hunyuan Huiqi Pill, Qixing Bone and Blood Pill, and other sixth-level pills. He swallowed them all in one gulp. Suddenly, the surface of his body was like a black hole, constantly absorbing the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.
This was because the medicinal power in his body was too huge, which triggered the crazy operation of the fighting spirit in his body to digest and absorb the medicinal power. While the fighting spirit was consumed, the pure medicinal power was transformed into more fighting spirit to make up for the deficiency in the body.
"Roar!"
The changes in Xiao Yun's body naturally did not escape the eyes of the ancient demon bear, but it was powerless. The pain in various parts of its body made it impossible for it to continue fighting.
Finally, it could only roar unwillingly, and a faint earth-yellow energy emerged from its huge body, taking it straight into the sky and escaping the valley.
The escape of the ancient demon bear seemed to have caused a chain reaction. Many demon beasts repelled the opponents in front of them, and then took the opportunity to escape. Only some demon beasts were left behind because they were too slow and were besieged by many powerful people.
Xiao Yun watched them escape, and was too lazy to chase them. His physical condition was only one tenth of what it was, and chasing them at this time would be courting death. He simply sat down and slowly recovered.
"Roar!"
Soon, under the siege of many Dou Zong, the remaining monsters were killed and defeated. With the final roar of a leopard-shaped monster, the whole valley was filled with blood, and the blood dyed the earth red. There were many monster corpses on the ground, and there were only a dozen of the original more than 30 Dou Zong masters. There
were only some broken limbs in the valley, and most of the fallen Dou Zong were swallowed directly by the monsters.
"Hoo!"
Several sounds of breaking wind were heard, and several figures flashed beside Xiao Yun. One of them, an old man with gray hair, clasped his fists and said, "I am Tian Ning, the great elder of Tianya Sect. Thank you for your help. If you hadn't killed the beast king in the first place, so that these monsters could no longer attack together, I'm afraid we would have died here long ago."
"Thank you!" The others also clasped their fists one after another.
"No need to thank me." Xiao Yun waited until his condition recovered a little before he stood up from the red land, waved his hands, and said calmly, "Anyway, I have to go into this mountain range. These monsters are guarding here, so of course I have to drive them away. Helping you is like helping myself."
"But I'm a little curious. You obviously don't have enough strength to chase away these monsters, so why are you still guarding here instead of running away?"
Hearing this, several people looked at each other, and finally the white-haired old man stood up and explained in a deep voice: "It's not that we don't want to, but in the past, once someone tried to escape, the Red Flame Demon Tiger would take action. Several powerful Fighting Sect members have died at the hands of that beast before."
Knowing the reason, Xiao Yun nodded. These people were quite loyal. After he killed the Red Flame Demon Tiger, they did not disperse, but continued to help.
Afterwards, he wanted to leave the valley. After all, the monsters had been repelled. In order to avoid the monsters bringing reinforcements for revenge, he had better find Master Feng as soon as possible.
"Are you going into the mountains?" Tian Ning asked after seeing Xiao Yun's actions.
"Yes, I came here with my family elders. I have explored most of the ruins, but I didn't see my elders, so I wanted to go in and take a look."
"Oh? In fact, we gathered here to find the strong people in the sect." Tian Ning's cloudy eyes stayed on the young man in front of him. He squeezed a smile on his old face and said, "I wonder if you are interested in joining us in the mountains to look for it?"
Hearing Tian Ning inviting Xiao Yun to join, the others did not object. Instead, they looked expectant. Although his cultivation seemed a bit low, Xiao Yun's strength was obvious to all.
With his own strength, he first killed the strongest Red Flame Demon Tiger among many demon beasts, and then repelled the seventh-level ancient demon bear. This kind of strength can also become a reliable pillar if he encounters danger in the mountains.
Xiao Yun looked at the people in the valley. At this time, other surviving strong men also came over, with expectant expressions on their faces.
But he still shook his head and said, "Thank you Elder Tianning for the invitation, but I am used to being alone and not used to moving in groups with others, so I'm sorry."
After the voice fell, the expectant expressions on everyone's faces turned into a little disappointment, but they didn't say anything, just wished Xiao Yun a safe journey.
"But I see that everyone has just been through a bloody battle, and I think everyone must have suffered a lot of injuries." Looking at the people in front of him, Xiao Yun took out two jade bottles from his ring and said with a smile: "It just so happens that I am an alchemist. Here are some fifth-grade elixirs of recovery pills. Let's share them with everyone."
With a flick of his finger, pills shot out one by one and floated in front of everyone.
"My friend, you are too polite. You should keep these pills. We were saved because of you. If we take your pills, it will be a pity..." Tian Ning waved his hand to refuse, and the others looked at the pills and hesitated.
"How about this, everyone, how about exchanging these pills for a monster corpse?" Xiao Yun saw the expressions of the people and said his real purpose.
"Well, what do you think?" After hearing Xiao Yun's words, Elder Tianning looked around, and after seeing everyone else nodded, he continued: "Since everyone agrees, I'll do as you say, young friend. You can take whichever one you like from the ground, and I'll accept this pill out of courtesy."
Xiao Yun chuckled, and then his figure flashed, and he put a seventh-level ancient demon beast corpse into the storage ring. Then he looked at everyone, clasped his fists, and said with a smile:
"Thank you everyone, that kid is leaving first!"
He used a dozen fifth-grade low-level pills to exchange for a seventh-level ancient demon beast corpse. No matter how you look at it, he made a profit.
In the valley, many strong men watched Xiao Yun disappear into the sky. Elder Tian Ning said, "Are there any pharmacists among us? Can you test whether there is any problem with this elixir?" After
a while, a man in a green robe stood up and checked the safety of the elixir for everyone.
Xiao Yun would not be surprised by everyone's worries. After all, in the Douqi Continent, especially in this kind of ruins, you have to be careful and cautious and not have a lucky mentality.
