Chapter 1360 Primeval Forest
Gongsun Murong, who had been practicing in the nearby Kuanglan Sect, relied on his strong talent to quickly become an inner disciple. Now he is only thirty years old, and he has already reached the golden elixir stage and is being trained by the sect.
Even the border guards offered him an olive branch.
The few young men and women who were originally here were disciples of a nearby sect, the Earth Fire Sect.
The relationship between the Earth Fire Sect and the Kuanglan Sect cannot be said to be tit-for-tat. There are only occasional frictions, but it has not developed to the point where the younger disciples have to differentiate between life and death.
This is also due to the fact that the demon army is pressing down on the situation. When the life and death of the race is at stake, even if there is hatred, try to maintain a peaceful level.
Several disciples of the Earth Fire Sect came here to explore the virgin forest, but they were not very lucky. As soon as they entered the forest, they were chased by the ferocious beasts growing in the forest and were forced into the depths of the virgin forest.
Only then did he discover Zhu Lingguo and meet Gongsun Murong.
"I advise you not to touch anything here." Gongsun Murong said calmly: "This is not only the junction of the territories of the three fierce gods. Although the three fierce gods often fight, it is not because of any personal grudges. But fight for the land in front of you.”
"This is a battleground between the three fierce gods. It's not surprising that there are some exotic flowers and plants here."
Chen Pianpian, a female disciple of the Earth Fire Sect, said: "The treasures of heaven and earth are right in front of you, how can you not take them away? Besides, it's just a Zhuling Fruit, so the three beast masters shouldn't look down upon it!"
"not necessarily."
Gongsun Murong sneered and said: "I am sure that as long as you dare to touch Zhu Lingguo, those beast owners will kill you immediately. If you don't want to die, you should stay away from this area and don't involve me."
After that, Gongsun Murong gave a cold warning, turned around and left in the opposite direction.
Everyone looked at Gongsun Murong's leaving figure and remained silent for a moment.
"Tch, isn't it just that you practiced two years earlier than me and entered the golden elixir stage ahead of schedule? What's so great about it!" Chen Pianpian rolled her eyes and said, "You are still preaching to us."
"That's right!"
Another female disciple nodded like a chicken pecking rice and said: "It's timid and unmanly at all. What we have to fight in the future is the demon clan, which is a hundred times more terrifying than the beast master. How can we not even dare to pick a fruit?"
Say it.
In a few jumps, the female disciple landed near the bush where the Zhuling Fruit grew. She raised her slender jade fingers and pulled off the Zhuling Fruit together with its roots.
"Look, it's okay."
The female disciple stuck out her tongue and said, "It's just alarmist talk."
However, before she could finish her words, the entire virgin forest began to tremble irregularly, getting closer and closer, as if something huge was coming.
As the footsteps got closer and closer, the ground trembled like the earth was shaking, and the trees hundreds of meters high were swaying this way and that.
Everyone's expressions changed.
Before they could react, a human figure rushed over from afar. It was Gongsun Murong who had just left. At this moment, his face was ashen, he turned around and fled towards the direction where several people were standing.
"Quickly go! Beast Master Yao Zhu!"
The expressions of several young disciples changed greatly. The three beast masters were the highest rulers of the entire primeval forest, and they were also the most powerful beings in the nearby area.
Including their Earth Fire Sect, they are completely incapable of slapping such ferocious beasts with one claw.
As for these little foundation-building monks, it’s probably not enough to fill the gaps in the beast master’s teeth!
They quickly turned around and fled for their lives together with Gongsun Murong. However, in the other direction, trees fell one after another, and a snake-shaped figure several hundred meters high was swimming from a distance, exuding a heart-stopping aura.
"That's...the ferocious beast Screaming Snake!"
In the other direction, the beast owner Qiongqi is also coming.
That little Zhu Lingguo seemed to have triggered a chain reaction, attracting all three beast masters.
"Go that way!"
Gongsun Murong pointed to a road, which was near the lake.
Three directions, three beast masters, in fact, no matter which direction they go, they can't escape. Instead of doing this, they might as well try their last chance to survive, sneak into the bottom of the lake and hide, and maybe save a small life.
Everyone did not dare to neglect and hurriedly chased Gongsun Murong's figure. Two of them escaped slowly and were slapped into pieces by Qiongqi.
Without any time to hesitate, the three of them took a full breath and plopped into the lake.
The three beast masters chased here, but suddenly stopped and circled around, as if they were afraid of some kind of power in the lake, never daring to get close.
But they also did not leave. They stood in three directions and refused to leave.
Everyone was floating in the middle of the lake, looking at the direction that was surrounded by the three beast masters nearby, and secretly heaving a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately they didn't come close."
Chen Pianpian's chest rose and fell violently, sending out ripples in circles, and she was still in shock.
The female disciple also breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the three beast masters in the distance and said, "But having said that, why did the three beast masters not chase me? Could it be that they were worried about stepping into the domain of the other two beast masters and were afraid of each other? No one dares to take a step beyond the thunder pool?"
"You think too much."
Gongsun Murong said calmly: "The three beast masters are not hindered by the struggle for territory. In order to compete for territory, it is not that they have never fought wars. What really makes them dare not approach is the lake below us.
. "
"lake?"
The female disciple's face changed slightly, and she said, "There are always some strange places in the world, accompanied by ferocious beasts, but they often contain opportunities. But if it is said that ferocious beasts dare not approach, there are probably only very few cases."
"Yes."
Chen Pianpian said, "Either this pool of water has some unknown poison, or there is some unknown creature hidden under the pool, even the three beast masters are afraid."
The female disciple's face changed again, and she said in shock, "Could there be a more terrifying beast under the pool?"
"This possibility is not ruled out."
Gongsun Murong's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "There is probably only one situation that can make the three beast masters do this. Don't move first, so as not to cause any trouble."
While speaking, Gongsun Murong glared at the female disciple fiercely again, as if warning.
After all, she provoked the three beast masters. God knows if she will be impatient again and provoke some terrifying monster to swallow them in one bite.
The four people floated in the middle of the lake, their bodies up and down, and they dared not move.
The same was true for the three beast masters in the distance. Their huge eyes were fixed on the four people and they never moved away.
This is not a good thing after all...
"The three beast masters should be waiting for us to leave. This is their common territory." Gongsun Murong calmly analyzed the situation in front of him and said in a deep voice: "If we want to leave, we can only wait for the three beast masters to give up voluntarily. But this is just a stopgap measure. We can't wait that long."
The female disciple nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "But, the three beast masters have been staying here, how can we leave."
The three beast masters are not only the overlords of the entire forest, but also the rulers of tens of millions of miles of territory nearby. Even if there are dozens of sects in the outside world, there are many masters, such as the Earth Fire Sect.
But even if the masters of these sects are tied together, they are definitely not the opponents of the three beast masters.
It is said that the three beast masters are masters comparable to the realm of the Immortal Emperor. Even if there are many masters in the ten thousand miles of territory, there is no one who can really fight with the three beast masters.
"If we want to leave, maybe we can take another road, if we are lucky enough." Gongsun Murong said in a deep voice.
The few people looked at each other, and Gongsun Murong continued: "I see that there is no water source within dozens of miles here. It is very strange that there is a lake here."
"Either, the water spirit nearby is too rich, forming this natural lake. Or, there is an underground water source."
Chen Pianpian's eyes lit up, and said: "Yes! If there is an underground water source here, we can leave by water without being discovered by the three beast masters!"
"Smart!"
Gongsun Murong snapped his fingers and took the lead in diving into the lake to find the source of the water. The others did not dare to fall behind, and they dived into the lake and groped around.
With their cultivation, they would naturally not be troubled by the lake water, and they could just cast a few water-avoiding talismans. As for light, it was not a problem at all. The power of the foundation-building cultivators far exceeded that of ordinary people, and they could see things at night.
The only problem was that they could not use their spiritual sense in the lake, as if they were imprisoned by an invisible force.
However.
When they really dived to the depths, everything in front of them suddenly became clear.
Originally, the dark world at the bottom of the lake was as bright as day. If there were no water flowing around, they would even have the illusion that they had come to land.
"It is really a strange place. I didn't expect that there would be other magical powers deep at the bottom of the lake."
The female disciple sighed and looked around at the bottom of the lake with the help of the bright light. Unfortunately, there was nothing else except some shellfish and water plants.
"It's always better to be careful."
Gongsun Murong reminded carefully: "There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Even the three beast masters dare not approach the territory. It is possible that there are really some fierce things."
As they talked, they continued to explore forward along the direction of the water flow.
After a while, the five people stopped in front of a huge shellfish.
This is a one-meter-long shellfish, with only a narrow gap in the center, and it is unclear whether there are any living creatures inside. Behind this shellfish, a stream of water flows gently and pours into the bottom of the lake.
Yes.
There is really an underground river source underground, but the only trouble is that the entrance is probably blocked by the shellfish in front of them.
But it doesn't matter. With their cultivation, can't they push open a shell? Even if it is a little bigger.
"Push open the shell and we can leave."
Gongsun Murong ordered.
