Chapter 501 Plan
A beam of sunlight with a bit of coldness penetrated into the room through the half-collapsed roof, illuminating the dusty room.
Broken tiles, broken beams, and broken tables and chairs came into Chen Mu's eyes one by one.
Looking out through the half-remaining door, the mountains on both sides stood tall, and the huge valley was full of collapsed and broken houses. The broken room under his feet was the most intact one.
Although he had expected it, Chen Mu still couldn't help sighing in disappointment.
This was the fifth day since he left Heifengao.
According to the approximate location provided by the skinny old man Yang Lao, Chen Mu carefully investigated and finally found this valley more than 200 miles east of Heifengao.
From the traces left behind, it can be seen that there were indeed people living here before, and it is likely that it was the mountain village where Yang Lao lived a few years ago.
But it is obvious that after being destroyed by the strange monster, this place has been completely abandoned.
"I was thinking that maybe someone would gather again." Chen Mu sighed.
He scanned the area carefully again with the Diting method, and confirmed that he found no trace of the Yin spirit. He could only return disappointed.
…
Half a month later.
The hillside on the east side of Heifengao.
Beside the east window of the thatched wooden house, Chen Mu sat on a small bamboo chair against the wall and drank tea.
The tea was sent by Mr. Yang at the foot of the mountain. He said it was wild mountain tea picked from the surrounding mountains. The fragrance was light, and the tea soup gave people a cold taste even though it was brewed with hot water.
More than 20 days later, some red moon burdock trees had appeared on the hillsides around the mountain. The people in the mountain are now scattered everywhere, stumbling and collecting jade dew for watering.
Moistened by the jade dew, the red leaves of the moon burdock tree swayed left and right like living things, and the rustling sound was quite cheerful.
After watching for a long time, Chen Mu retracted his gaze. Taking a sip of the tea, as the sharp taste spread, he couldn't help but feel clear-minded, and the depression of fruitless exploration for days dissipated.
"Take your time to look for it. It's not the first time I've been stranded in the wilderness." Chen Mu let out a long breath and accepted the reality.
"Besides, although the way back to the world of the living is temporarily blocked, it is a blessing in disguise, and the Five Dragons Sutra has made good progress."
Thinking of this, he immediately called up the gray wall to check.
Five Dragons Sutra: 115/10000/Level 4;
The accidental swallowing of the strange monster seemed to have found the right direction for the Five Dragons Sutra.
In the process of constantly breaking up and reorganizing the Five Dragons Dharma, Chen Mu's understanding of the true meaning of the Candle Dragon became deeper and deeper. With the help of the gray wall, daily practice can also bring him a lot of experience.
Because of this, the Five Dragons Sutra entered a new stage yesterday.
With a thought, a new Five Dragons Dharma appeared.
Five ferocious dragon heads appeared silently in front of the wooden house.
The initial Dharma image was composed entirely of gray clouds and mist. It looked majestic from a distance, but if you looked closely, you would find that the clouds and mist kept changing and the outlines were unclear, just like looking at a group of strange clouds in the sky.
But at this moment, the outline of the Five Dragons Dharma Image was glowing with black light lines, the edges were becoming clearer, and the double horns on the top of the head had even completely turned into a black translucent keratin state, and the overall appearance was becoming more condensed.
It was as if the cloud and mist had turned into a liquid water mass.
"Great progress." Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction.
The more solid the Dharma image is, the stronger the shock attack power is, and its own swallowing and absorption ability has also increased several times, which can be regarded as his biggest trump card at present.
"However, why does this look a bit like the mysterious method of the giant spirit?"
The mysterious method of the giant spirit came from the Wushan brothers and sisters. Through their own magic power and essence, they jointly practiced a phantom of a statue. Once activated, they could multiply their own power.
The Five Dragons Sutra used the Yin God power to cast the Five Dragons Dharma Image, which also has all kinds of incredible powers.
Different cultivation methods, different urging forces, and different abilities, but there is always some kind of connection inside. It's like a different imitation of the same thing.
"A simulation of the ability of the demons and gods?"
"It's possible."
"I just don't know how strong the so-called demons and gods are."
After thinking about it, Chen Mu shook his head and gave up.
No matter where the root is, as long as he can kill the enemy and protect the way, he has no intention of going into it for the time being.
He shifted his sight and looked at another column.
Nine Cups Calculation: 9134/10000/First Level;
"If I brush up the experience of this thing, can I use it to calculate the direction of Feng'an City?" Chen Mu touched his chin thoughtfully.
He had already scanned the area of 100 miles around Heifeng'ao, and he couldn't find anyone else, so naturally there was no more news.
He had also asked the Yin spirits in Heifeng'ao, but they didn't know Feng'an City, and they hadn't seen other Yin spirits nearby.
Although he could expand the scope and continue to search, it would take too much time to wander around aimlessly. Moreover, the strange monsters are elusive, and the carpet search will greatly increase the chance of encountering strange monsters, which makes it difficult for him to feel at ease.
"Other people's success rate is low, which only means that they have not practiced deeply enough."
"When you are more proficient, there may be surprises." Chen Mu had an idea in his mind.
Shen Laogui dared to let him use this thing to fool the main camp of Jigu City, which means that the Nine Cups of Calculation is not worthless.
Compared with wandering around, the Calculation can at least give him a possible direction to try.
...
In the middle of the night, two hundred miles outside Feng'an City, a thick fog that was so thick that you couldn't see your hand in front of you was silently creeping towards the city.
At a certain moment, it seemed that thunder flashed in the clouds, and on the gray clouds, dots of pale green light appeared.
The next moment.
Swish!
Like a sudden downpour, countless pale green fireballs as big as human heads fell from the sky, and smashed into the white clouds like thousands of arrows.
Boom boom boom...
A series of loud noises exploded, and green flames shot up into the sky.
The white cloud of the quiet bridge suddenly burst into a shrill scream, and a huge meat ball with countless strange snake heads seven or eight stories high appeared.
The green flames covered it and continued to burn, and the snake head meat ball kept rolling, trying to extinguish the flames, but it was always useless.
Then, the densely packed snake heads spewed black venom at the same time, and the stench rushed to the sky.
The rapidly spreading green flames slowed down, as if encountering a hurricane, and the raging fire suddenly shrank by half.
But the fireballs in the sky continued, and in the blink of an eye, the power of the flames was restored again.
No matter how the strange meat ball struggled and roared, it eventually fell into the sea of fire and was covered by the green flames. Finally, it exploded with a loud noise, turning into countless Yinming insects with human heads and scattered.
A gray gloomy wind swept across the sky, and the green flames like a sea of fire suddenly extinguished, and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.
On the clouds in the sky, Lu Liang and Lu Shisan, who were wrapped in the dark and gloomy clouds, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Master, this is the fifth strange monster since the beginning of winter, right?" Lu Shisan's face was solemn: "Has Qingyang City already known that the city lord went to Tianwaitian?"
"It may not be known for sure, but there must be some guesses." Lu Liang's face was not good: "After all, he has not appeared for half a year. It is already the limit to hide it for so long."
"Then these strange monsters that are constantly approaching recently are probably tests." Lu Shisan's face was ugly: "This is forcing the city lord to show up."
"If the city lord appears, he can naturally repel the strange monsters; if he does not appear, it means that there is something wrong with the city lord. Maybe they will take advantage of the strange monsters to destroy our Feng'an!"
Lu Liang nodded slowly, frowning into a river.
"Master, how about you leave Feng'an City first to hide?" Lu Shisan couldn't help but persuade.
"I can't leave." Lu Liang shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid that the outskirts of Feng'an City have been set up by Qingyang City, waiting for me to show up."
"As soon as I run, they will immediately attack and use me as a weakness to attack my father."
"We can only defend Feng'an to the death, create the illusion that my father is still practicing in seclusion, and get away with it."
Lu Shisan wanted to continue to persuade, but he opened his mouth and finally remained silent.
"Has Mr. Lu not been found yet?" Lu Liang asked.
"The demon spirit seed is fine, and Mr. Lu is likely to be alive." Lu Shisan shook his head: "But there is no way to know where he was sent."
Lu Liang heard this, his face was ugly: "We easily killed the strange monsters these few times, thanks to the secret method of carrying mountains taught by Mr. Lu."
"It's hateful that Qingyang City is pressing step by step, and the secret spies in the city are watching everywhere, so we can't investigate on a large scale."
"The old home in Qingyang City is really damned!"
"Alas... the situation is like this, we can't do anything." Lu Shisan comforted.
"I have sent two more teams to continue searching for the round-faced secret agent."
"If we find that person, we may have a chance to find some traces."
"Alas... this is all we can do for now." Hearing this, Lu Liang couldn't help but sigh: "I wish Mr. Lu great fortune."
