Northwest of Huanglong Fairy City.

Faint mist shrouded the vast and endless gray mountains.

A second-order spirit boat flew through the air, slowly slowing down on the periphery of the Black Mist Mountain Range.

On the flying boat, a man and a woman stood side by side, dressed in black robes and skirts, like a middle-aged couple in the Foundation Establishment period.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, the risk of this trip may be no less than that of going to the frontline battlefield. Do you have arrangements for funeral?"

Shi Manrong, who was dressed in a black dress, was no longer conspicuous after disguising and changing her appearance.

"Lu has no relatives and no descendants, so no arrangements are needed."

Lu Changan said lightly.

"Why, I attended Zheng Daoyou's funeral not long ago, and Fairy Shi fell in love with the scene, what's the funeral?"

A few days ago, the two of Lu Chang'an set off from Mount Wuqi to attend Zheng Centipede's funeral.

Shi Xianzi and Zheng Centipede don't have a deep friendship, and they mainly used the time of going out to secretly go to the ancient ruins in the Black Mist Mountains.

At the funeral, the two late-stage foundation-builders showed up, even if it was just a simple appearance, which gave the Zheng family enough face and shocked the hostile forces.

In the Zheng family land, the two learned a detail:

Centipede Zheng died on the battlefield, and there was no one to collect the body, and there were no bones left.

The danger of the ancient ruins is no less than that of the battlefield. Once something unexpected happens, I am afraid that there will be no place to bury him, and he will end up like Zheng Centipede.

"My concubine and Fellow Daoist Lu are all the same way, so naturally I have nothing to worry about."

Shi Manrong smiled slightly and suggested:

"We might as well agree that if one of them suffers from misfortune, the other will help collect the body for burial and inherit his inheritance without affecting his own safety."

Lu Changan agreed to the agreement, and comforted him:

"Lu Mou believes that with Master Fairy's mastery and preparation, as long as he restrains his greed, he will be able to retreat."

...

Entering the Black Mist Mountains, the two slowed down and flew at low altitude.

"There are a lot more monks in the Black Mist Mountains than usual."

Lu Changan murmured.

In the Black Mist Mountains, where there were few people in the past, the number of monks has increased significantly.

There are even Zongmen monks guarding the natural gaps that pass through the branches of the Black Mist Mountains and the Black Blood Road opened by the sages.

This phenomenon is related to the war of cultivating immortals.

Some monks fled to the outskirts of the Black Mist Mountains to avoid the war.

Some of these figures have a strong evil spirit, and they are probably wanted by the sect.

Half a month later.

With the continuous deepening, there are fewer and fewer monks on the road.

The area the two set foot in is far more dangerous than the outer mountains. The monsters they occasionally encounter are basically second-order monsters, and there are many powerful monsters in the later stages of second-order.

The most dangerous time, there was a quasi-third-order monster bird that flitted across the nearby sky.

A quasi-third-level demon bird is much faster than a fake alchemy real person. Once it is targeted, it is difficult to get rid of it.

Fortunately, Lu Changan reacted quickly, and Fairy Shi and Shi hid in time to restrain his magic power.

"When I came here before, the surrounding monsters were not so powerful."

Fairy Shi was terrified, and explored according to the route in memory, leading the way ahead.

...

"Coming."

After walking for half a day, a precipitous peak came into view of the two.

In the depths of that peak, Lu Changan smelled a dangerous atmosphere, there might be a fake alchemy level, or even a real third-level monster.

Fortunately, there is no need to go any further, the location of the ancient ruins in Fairy Shi's memory is not far away.

The two flew down to the bottom of several dangerous peaks.

A rotten swamp, covering hundreds of acres, came into view.

Far away, Lu Changan smelled a stench, which was the poisonous gas emanating from the rotting swamp.

Even the foundation-building cultivators would feel dizzy if they smelled it.

In the swamp, there are poisonous snakes, insects, and scorpions, including hidden and terrible species.

Be it monks or monsters, keep them at a respectful distance.

Perhaps due to the environmental factors of the poisonous gas, the isolation effect of this swamp on the consciousness is far more than that of ordinary rock formations.

"Here, it seems that someone has been here."

Shi Manrong's gaze settled on a dangerous peak adjacent to the swamp, and her expression changed.

The mountain walls there are covered with thorns and weeds.

At the same time, Lu Chang'an sensed a dark and cold spiritual probe.

"careful!"

Before the sound of exclamation fell, on the dangerous peak adjacent to the swamp, the light and shadow changed, and three or four figures appeared.

Chi Chi Chi!

More than a dozen lotus seeds with strange black lights flashed in the air, covering Lu Changan and the two of them.

The mana shield that Lu Changan hastily brought up was broken after only resisting two lotus seeds.

With a "chila", Fairy Shi's black robe was torn off, revealing her fair skin, fortunately there was no bleeding.

The surface of the black lotus hidden weapon was obviously smeared with poison.

"A complete set of special top-grade instruments!"

Fairy Shi Shi was moved, and she made a formula in her hands. The black skirt was lined with the top-grade defensive vestment, and a film of black water light surged out, covering her whole body.

Lu Chang'an sacrificed a silver shield and spun it around his body quickly. With the sound of "Ding Ding", it automatically blocked the other black lotus that attacked.

However, the attack of the black lotus seed magic weapon was only the first to bear the brunt.

Followed by.

A dharma sword shrouded in flaming clouds slashed across the gap, forming a flaming sword shadow of five or six feet.

A piece of misty cloud handkerchief swelled to the wide roof and rotated in an umbrella shape, exuding great suction, covering the two from the top of their heads.

Although these two top-grade instruments were used in the middle stage of foundation establishment, they brought a lot of pressure to Lu Chang'an and the others under the coordinated ambush.

It's not over yet.

Over the swamp adjacent to the dangerous peak, a violent fluctuation of mana came.

"It's not a simple person who can be safe and sound under Miss Wei's 'Black Lotus Flash' attack."

Wearing a large cloak, the young monk with a high nose bridge had a strange expression on his face. He stood on the mountain wall with one foot, making talismans with both hands, and his body surged with mana.

A bronze dagger with a simple texture floated in the air, exuding a spiritual pressure that was almost like a magic weapon of a real person.

"The prototype of the magic weapon! The peak of the late stage of foundation establishment!"

At this moment, Lu Chang'an saw the attacker's face clearly.

Those were the four Foundation Establishment cultivators, who had been concealed by the Tier 3 formation before, and only revealed their figures after making a move.

Except for the peak youth in the later stage of Foundation Establishment with a high nose bridge.

In the late stage of Foundation Establishment, who manipulated a complete set of black lotus instruments, she was a long-haired and glamorous woman, wearing a mid-to-short skirt, revealing slender white arms and long legs.

Lu Chang'an sensed that this woman's mana fluctuated, compared to a true disciple of the sect, but she practiced magic skills.

The remaining two are in the middle stage of foundation establishment, an old man in sixty armor, and a middle-aged woman, who respectively control the Huoxia magic sword and the fog light cloud handkerchief to cooperate with the siege.

Just now, it was only the three long-haired women who built the foundation and attacked, almost hurting Lu Changan and the other two.

At this moment, the most powerful young man with a high nose bridge, the prototype of the magic weapon inspires success.

Boom!

There was thunder in the air.

The bronze long dagger flashed vaguely, pierced through the void, exuded a fake alchemy-level coercion, and stabbed at Lu Changan with lightning and thunder.

This attack came during the siege, and even had a chance to kill ordinary late stage foundation builders.

"Being treated as a persimmon?"

Lu Changan had just entered the seventh floor of foundation building, and his mana was far behind that of Fairy Shi, who was at the peak of foundation building, and became a breakthrough point for the enemy to kill or seriously injure first.

Lu Changan looked a little flustered, took a picture of a second-tier top-level defensive talisman, and added a layer of crystal loess cover on his body.

Boom!

The second-order soil cover directly cracked, and a hole was pierced by the bronze Changge.

The silver shield in front of Lu Changan's aura suddenly dimmed, and it was shaking, and it was about to fall.

At the critical moment, Lu Changan sacrificed another heavy armored puppet in the late stage of the second rank, holding a heavy shield in his hand, and with a "dang" sound, he fended off the bronze Chang Gege who had only 20 to 30 percent of his power remaining.

laugh!

Lu Changan tilted his neck, and suddenly dodged a flickering hidden black lotus seed.

Hei Lianzi flew into the air, piercing through a large rock behind, leaving a deep and corroded hole.

Fairy Shi couldn't help but sweat secretly for Lu Changan.

This is still her trying her best to resist the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Huh? The response is very fast!"

The long-haired and glamorous woman not far away couldn't help but sigh slightly, looking a little surprised.

The hiding of the black lotus seeds just now was one of her ultimate moves. She did not expect Lu Changan to dodge sharply after "doing her best" to resist the blow of the prototype of the magic weapon.

"This kid, the way of saving his life is not bad."

The young man with a high nose bridge who manipulated the prototype of the magic weapon was secretly amazed.

The target just now, in the ordinary late stage of foundation establishment, would probably have to be hated on the spot, at least a price would have to be paid.

Lu Changan looked flustered, but in the end he was unscathed. .

"Fellow Daoist Lu, form an array to face the enemy."

Fairy Shi sent a voice transmission, waved her plain hand lightly, and a formation plate landed on the ground, and several formation flags fell around it.

In an instant, a cloud of gray flying sand and strong wind enveloped the area where the two of them were.

Fairy Shi is worthy of being a formation genius, and she quickly set up a set of second-level top-level temporary formations.

This kind of temporary formation will quickly consume the spirit stones in the formation disk and cannot last for too long.

The high-nosed young man in a cloak manipulated the prototype of the magic weapon and struck with all his strength, causing the formation to shake for a while, making it impossible to break through it quickly.

With the support of the formation, Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi are not afraid of the siege of a certain number of monks of the same rank.

Lu Chang'an and Fairy Shi sacrificed attack magic weapons, and with the puppets of the second-tier high-grade, under the cover of the formation, they could occasionally launch counterattacks.

"Fairy Master, this place seems to have been discovered? Didn't you say back then that no one knew the location of the ruins except that Daoist Qi?"

"I haven't been here for decades. I don't know the specific situation. The cover array that was set up at the entrance of the ruins no longer exists."

Lu Changan and Shi Manrong secretly communicated.

"The third-order formation has been re-arranged here, and most of the ancient ruins have been discovered. I suspect that the real masters are not these monks."

In the battle just now, the two left room because of some scruples.

Fairy Master's talisman, and even the prototype of the hidden magic weapon, were not used.

Lu Changan's rock rats, who were in the face of combat power, did not participate in the battle either.

"After all, it has been so many years. Especially in the past two years, the number of monks who have come to the Black Mist Mountains has increased significantly. It is not unusual to find this place by accident."

...

In the valley and swamp, the monks on both sides stood in a stalemate for a moment, with nothing to do with each other.

"A bunch of trash!"

A low, displeased voice came from below the swamp.

Boom!

Accompanied by the fake alchemy-level spiritual pressure, the poisonous miasma-filled swamp was broken open, and a tall figure glowing with blue clouds burst out.

"Really Tan!"

The four Foundation Establishment cultivators in front of the mountain wall bowed in salute.

Lan Xiadan withdrew her strength, revealing a middle-aged man with a full beard.

"Tan Zhenren? Could it be that ruthless person who betrayed Lihuo Palace?"

Shi Man looked at the fake alchemist in the sky above his head, his face changed, and his breathing became short of breath.

"Sure enough, there are real people! The four just now are just gatekeepers."

Lu Changan noticed Shi Manrong's nervousness.

They are also fake alchemy real people, but this one is the one with the most powerful mana that I have ever seen in this world.

From Shi Manrong's point of view, she and Lu Chang'an teamed up, and the fake alchemy real person Zhou Xuan has the ability to save her life.

But that's only limited to ordinary fake real people.

Tan Zhenren, who had rebelled from Lihuo Palace, once defeated two fake Dan Zhenren one by one, and killed one of them.

What's more, the other four monks in the middle and late stages of foundation establishment are not weaker than the two of them.

"break!"

Tan Zhenren glanced coldly at the formation under his feet, and slapped it with his backhand, and the pill power poured down like a mountain torrent, forming the outline of a huge palm.

boom!

The second-tier top-level formation collapsed instantly, exposing Lu Changan and Shi Manrong.

The two groaned, their qi and blood were churning, their bodies retreated in the strong wind and waves, and they barely stabilized their bodies.

"Tan Zhenren, concubine..."

Shi Manrong bowed her body and saluted, and the surroundings spoke and negotiated.

Tan Zhenren's face was full of sarcasm, he couldn't say anything, and he made a tactic with one hand.

Well!

A water wave pillar with a dragon's head more than ten feet across the sky, roaring and vibrating the blood, carrying the waves of water, turning over and rushing towards Lu Changan and Shi Manrong.

The aura of the two's ultimate defensive magic weapon dimmed for a moment, and it didn't last for two breaths, so it was broken by it.

However, both Lu Chang'an and Shi Manrong had talismans to protect them, which blocked the impact of the water jet from the dragon's head.

"The strength of this person is close to the early stage of the real pill."

Lu Changan secretly evaluated.

Tan Zhenren frowned slightly, and opened his mouth to spit out a cold light, which turned into a simple black ruler.

This is a real magic weapon, and the spiritual pressure it emits is close to that of a real alchemy monk.

The black ruler turned around and condensed dark blue brilliance, hovering above the two of them, feeling like the weight of Mount Tai.

This foot is enough to break open the mountain.

Lu Changan's face was solemn, the degree of threat of this person was far better than that of He Yuanwu and Xiang Jinglong.

He reckoned that the quasi-third-tier defensive talisman couldn't withstand the blow of the opponent's magic weapon.

Fairy Shi's face turned pale, and she spread out her jade hands, revealing an oversized blue talisman with a lifelike ice spear engraved on it.

She still felt insecure, and secretly pinched a quasi-third-order talisman.

"With such a big commotion, I'm afraid that outsiders won't know about this place?"

Suddenly, a dissatisfied shout came.

"Master Hu!"

"Master Hu!"

On the mountain wall connected to the swamp, the stone gate opened, and a short old man with a black beard walked out.

"Is there a second real person?"

Lu Changan felt tricky.

If you guessed right, this real person is a Tier 3 formation mage, responsible for conquering the ancient ruins, and I don't know how much progress he has made.

If it was a year or so later, the benefits in the ruins might have been preempted.

"Senior Hu? Why are you here?"

Shi Manrong's pretty eyes lit up, and when she saw the short old man with a black beard, she said in surprise.

"Hey! It's my little teacher."

Hu Zhenren's eyes fell on Shi Xianzi, and after a little identification, he showed a trace of surprise.

This time out, both Lu Changan and Shi Manrong disguised themselves.

"Master Hu, what is the relationship between these two people and you?"

Tan Zhenren put away the magic weapon ruler and cast a questioning look.

"Don't misunderstand Tan Zhenren, the little master is a rising star of the formation master that the old man once pointed out. Today is a pure coincidence..."

Hu Zhenren explained.

And secretly exchanged a few words via voice transmission.

Zhenren Tan's expression softened slightly, he looked at Fairy Shi, and said, "You two found this place, where did you get the news from?"

"Back to Zhenren Tan. In this place, the concubine is actually older than you..."

Shi Manrong knew that she couldn't hide it, even if she pretended not to know the ancient ruins, the two real people would definitely not believe it, and they would never let her and Lu Changan go easily.

"It turns out that it's better to come early than coincidentally."

Master Hu stroked his beard and smiled.

He looked at Tan Zhenren again, and discussed: "The little master is very talented in formations and knows the relics better. Why don't you let her join and help the old man break through the formation. What do you think Tan Zhenzhen wants?"

"feasible."

Tan Zhenzhen nodded, one more formation master can speed up the formation, and he doesn't mind selling Hu Zhenren's face.

"What is the relationship between this person and you?"

Tan Zhenren's eyes fell on Lu Changan.

"This is Lu Fushi from Wuqi Mountain. He has a deep friendship with this concubine. He originally planned to explore the ruins with him."

Shi Manrong answered truthfully:

"Lu Fushi has profound skills in Fu Dao, and I believe he can help the two seniors."

"We have enough people, we don't need Talisman Masters!"

Tan Zhenzhen's tone turned cold, and he looked at Lu Changan's expression, showing his murderous intent without concealing it.

"Senior Hu, can you accommodate me..." Shi Manrong begged softly.

"Little master, Zhenren Tan has already made an exception once. The more people are taken in, the more variable the entry into the ruins will be."

Master Hu Zhen was firm and shook his head.

He circulated his alchemy in the air and separated Shi Manrong and Lu Changan.

Without the instructions of the two real people, the previous four monks who were in the middle and late stages of foundation establishment stepped forward and surrounded Lu Changan.
