Chapter 1641 Blood River
It was impossible to calculate the exact distance, but Ning Tao estimated that he ran about 70 to 80 kilometers looking in the direction of the golden star. After that, he finally saw a different scene.
It was a blood-colored mountain, tens of thousands of meters high, and the top of the mountain could not be seen, but it was judged to be a ring-shaped mountain. The mountain peak was shrouded in a blood-colored thick fog from half its waist, and there was an aura of mystery and terror.
But this is still not the end, and there is no holy palace in sight.
"Climb up and have a look." Ning Tao made up his mind, and after a short rest, he ran towards the ring-shaped mountain again.
It would be nice to have a map, but unfortunately there is none.
After about ten kilometers, Ning Tao came to the area near the foot of the mountain.
A ditch blocked Ning Tao's body. The ditch was more than 20 meters wide, and he couldn't just jump over it as if he had come all the way over those ditch.
He came to the edge of the ditch and looked down. There was still blood-colored water in the ditch, flowing slowly like a river. The blood-colored water is opaque, so it is impossible to see how deep the water is.
A wry smile emerged from the corner of Ning Tao's mouth. In the past, not to mention such a river more than 20 wide, even the entire Milky Way, he flew over in a swish. When I got here, I still had to worry about how to cross a river that was more than 20 meters wide.
"The water is poisonous, so we can't swim through it, right? We finally got here. If we get poisoned in the water and drown in the river, it will be embarrassing." Ning Tao said to himself.
The co-lord of the Three Realms, the God of Destiny to send the son left the universe he ruled, and drowned in a small river. This kind of story will probably be laughed at by the creatures of the whole universe for 100 million years, right?
Suddenly there was a rustling sound behind him.
Ning Tao's heart suddenly became alert, but after all, he is the grassroots god king who killed all the way from the mortal world to the holy mountain. He has experienced many battles, big and small, and killed many enemies of various levels. , I have long practiced the ability to remain calm, the more dangerous the more calm.
look back?
Most people would do this, but Ning Tao didn't. He still kept facing the bloody river and looked down at the river, as if he didn't hear the voice behind him.
The sound of sneaking barefoot on the grass is actually not obvious, but this magical and mysterious space is so quiet that even the slightest sound will be obvious.
In fact,
Ning Tao not only heard the footsteps of someone sneaking towards him, he even heard the other person's breathing.
The other party's breathing was a little short, and it was obvious that he was very nervous.
"Oh, the river is so wide, and I don't know how deep it is, how can I get across?" Ning Tao said to himself.
The people behind suddenly exerted force and rushed towards Ning Tao.
Ning Tao still didn't move. When the man's palm was about to be pushed on his back, he suddenly took a step sideways. After getting out of the way, he grabbed the man's wrist, borrowed his strength, and slammed forward. .
A white-haired old man flew out from behind Ning Tao, and fell into the river with a thud.
The river was actually not deep, the old man got up after struggling in the water, the water only covered his waist.
Ning Tao jumped up and flew over the old man's head, then stepped heavily on his head with his right foot, jumped up again, flew over more than ten meters of surface, and landed on the slope of the trench. He grabbed the blood-colored weeds on the slope, and using both hands and feet, he climbed up the ditch in a few strokes.
The old man had just gotten up, but Ning Tao stepped into the river again. When Ning Tao climbed up the slope and turned around, he got up from the blood again.
This white-haired old man is still seventy-eight percent similar to White Beard, but one head of white hair has been stained red by blood, scattered on his shoulders and face, looking particularly ferocious.
"You are so bold and arrogant!" the old man roared angrily. In his golden eyes, the eyes were like knives, like a raging fire, wishing to chop Ning Tao into pieces and burn them to ashes!
Ning Tao smiled: "Senior, why did you accidentally fall into the river, do you want me to pull you up?"
The old man waded towards Ning Tao, angrily said as he walked, "Do you know who I am? How dare you bully me!"
As expected, this old man is of course also the Lord of the Three Realms, and a self-centered and bad-tempered Lord of the Three Realms. It was obvious that he was the one who launched the sneak attack just now, but now he accused Ning Tao of plotting against him. As far as his current emotional state is concerned, if this is the universe he dominates, Ning Tao may have been punished by the nine clans.
Ning Tao was still not angry, and while observing the old man's reaction, he said: "Old man, you are wrong to say that, if it weren't for you, trying to push me into the river from behind, why would you fall into the river again? "
The old man became angry from embarrassment, and shouted sharply: "Shut up!"
Ning Tao smiled: "Well, I was the one who threw you into the river, so what? You want to push me into the river, so I just borrowed you to cross the river. By the way, I will check whether the river water is poisonous or not. , how do you feel now?"
"This old man is the Lord of the Three Realms!"
"Coincidentally, I am also the Lord of the Three Realms."
"You... Pfft!" The old man didn't finish his sentence, a mouthful of golden blood spewed out from his mouth.
This is not gas, it is poisoned.
This blood is indeed poisonous!
Ning Tao was secretly lucky, fortunately he didn't risk crossing the river.
Although there is a little blood-colored water on the grass, it only touches the soles of the feet, and the soles of the feet have calluses, so it is not easy to be poisoned. Coupled with the constant running, the blood on the soles of the feet will be rubbed off by the grass, making it even less likely to be poisoned. But soaking half of your body in this blood is another matter. For men, there are some places where there is no skin protection. If you soak in toxic water, it is tantamount to direct contact with toxins.
"This water...is really poisonous...Pfft!" Before he could finish his sentence, the old man spat out another mouthful of blood. His blood was no longer so golden, but had a very obvious color.
This is already an obvious poisoning reaction.
The speed at which the toxin spread was so fast was beyond Ning Tao's expectation.
"You...you come here...pull me up...I'll give you a big fortune..." The old man's voice trembled, and in just this little time, the arrogance and domineering aura just now had disappeared.
Ning Tao stood on the slope, stretched out a hand seriously, and said loudly: "Quick, grab my hand, and I will pull you up."
The old man really stretched out his hand, but the distance between him and Ning Tao's was at least twenty meters. He froze for a moment, as if he understood something, his hand fell down feebly again. He looked at the young man standing on the slope, his eyes wished he could swallow the young man alive.
"You don't want me to drag you. By the way, did you stay here because of this river? Did you see someone climb that mountain?" Ning
Tao asked.
Although I pushed you into the river, even though I stepped on your head to cross the river, I still want to use waste to dig out the last bit of value from you.
The old man was staggering in the water, and he might fall down at any moment, but he still held on with all his strength: "You...you pull me up, and I'll tell you..."
Ning Tao said: "You tell me first, and then I will pull you up."
"Pull me up first... Hurry up!" The old man couldn't hold on anymore.
Ning Tao smiled: "I insist on you talking before pulling you up. I have plenty of time to wait for you to think it through, but do you have time?"
The old man hesitated for two seconds, couldn't hold it anymore, and said in a trembling voice: "Someone passed by, several people..."
Gudong!
Before finishing a sentence, the old man fell into the river, and then floated down the river.
He probably knew that even if he said it, Ning Tao would not pull him up, but he didn't want to give up even if it was a ten thousandth hope.
Ants are still living stealthily, let alone the Lord of the Three Realms who dominates a cosmic world?
The old man's body didn't float far in the river before it landed on the bank and stopped.
In such a short time, the old man's body had already begun to decompose. The first thing to be decomposed was the skin, the pale skin melted into the blood, then the flesh, and finally the internal organs and bones, all of which were completely gone in a blink of an eye, not even a single piece of meat was left.
Ning Tao watched the whole process, and was horrified in his heart.
If he had crossed the river rashly as soon as he came, then it would be him who sank to the bottom of the river at this moment, not the old man.
The old man's divine blood was wasted, otherwise he would definitely drink the old man's divine blood and become stronger. If he becomes stronger, then the river in front of him will not be an obstacle.
But he is not in a hurry, he will definitely meet many seeds along the way, and there are still many opportunities.
Ning Tao moved his gaze to the ring-shaped mountain, and said in his heart: "Several people together, don't they know that only one person can get the chance of a new life? If they know, then they may form an alliance, Team up to kill the competitors on the road, and then kill each other. I have to be careful and avoid those people, otherwise it will be very dangerous to be discovered by them."
He continued to walk towards the ring mountain.
He didn't go far before he found footprints, some blood grass was trampled off, and faint footprints were left on the ground. From the analysis of the footprints on the ground, there were five people in that group, one of them was very tall, and the footprints left on the ground were particularly obvious, and they were much larger than the other footprints.
However, after seeing the figure of the "Hulk" Aluro, he felt nothing.
I don't know that Ahluluo ran hundreds of miles in the opposite direction now, and Ning Tao felt a little guilty when he suddenly thought of him. Compared to the two bad old men he met along the way, that Hulk, Allelo, can be regarded as a good person. Asked the way and nodded to him to thank him, but these two guys were thinking about how to kill him, and they were all behind the scenes.
Ning Tao followed the footsteps to the foot of the ring-shaped mountain. Looking up, the hillside sloped upwards, and the halfway up the mountain was covered with blood mist, and no one could be seen. The footprints of those people stretched up the hillside, and they must have climbed halfway up the mountain, or even the top of the mountain.
Ning Tao thought for a while, avoided the footprints, and walked sideways for a while before climbing up the hillside.
