Chapter 307: Temporary Market
Before I knew it, several months had passed.
Deep in Upside Down Mountain.
The Qiu tree, which is more than a thousand feet tall, is like a giant god, blocking out the sky and the sun, greedily plundering all resources, including light, inspiration, and even flesh and blood.
The forest was extremely dark, filled with a silence that wanted to choose people and devour them.
From time to time, terrifying roars came from far away, adding a touch of depressive atmosphere.
Tread——
There was a faint rustle of footsteps.
Immediately afterwards, three figures emerged from the darkness. Although the specific expressions cannot be seen clearly, their cautious movements alone are enough to imagine the nervousness of these three people.
"Fellow Daoist Li, why don't you take a short break?"
A deliberately soft voice came, and Zhang Jing, who was walking at the front, stopped. He habitually stared at it for a week. Although the light was dim, it was as bright as day in his eyes.
As far as the eye can see, there is complete silence, and there is no sign of the activity of the upside-down spirit.
"Can."
call--
Hearing this, brother and sister Zhu Dayou and Zhu Hongxia breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground together.
However, he didn't wait for them to sit down.
Then Zhang Jing pointed to the thousand-foot-long ancient trees around him and said a kind reminder:
"By the way, you can't use fire magical powers here, otherwise they will be regarded as nutrients by these things. Even if it is completed by then,
As soon as these words came out.
The hearts of the Zhu brothers and sisters who had just been relieved couldn't help but feel anxious again. They subconsciously glanced at each other and saw the panic on each other's faces.
As we continue deeper into Upside Down Mountain.
The various encounters during this period really made the two brothers and sisters Zhu Dayou feel trembling when they entered the secret realm for the first time - the upside-down spirit with terrifying power, the dangerous place with all kinds of weird rules, etc.
Of course, the most dangerous thing doesn't end there.
Especially during this period of time, more and more creatures have rushed to the Upside Down Mountain after hearing the news. Demons, gods, ghosts, and even fellow human monks have become a huge threat.
Killing people to seize treasures is completely normal.
After all, no one can guarantee that they will be able to catch the man named Zhang Jing and get the opening talisman, so they will naturally take the opportunity to make a fortune.
Come anyway.
"This Upside Down Mountain, this Upside Down Mountain..."
Zhu Hongxia looked around and suddenly felt like she was being watched by countless eyes.
She secretly glanced at Zhang Jing directly in front of her, and suddenly felt a burst of joy in her heart.
Fortunately, I met Fellow Daoist Li when I just entered the Upside Down Mountain. Otherwise, if he and his brother had barged in so rashly without knowing anything, they would not even say they wanted to find Zhang Jing, or even being able to survive would be a problem.
"Fortunately, I have this fellow Taoist. He knows everything about the Upside Down Mountain. Under the leadership of fellow Taoist Li this time, we can't say we can really find that Zhang Jing."
Zhu Dayou secretly sent a message to Zhu Hongxia, a trace of longing flashed in his eyes.
"Brother, if it's true as you said, then how should we divide it after we get the divine talisman?" After hearing this, Zhu Hongxia immediately asked in confusion.
Hear the words.
Zhu Dayou was silent for a moment, and then said categorically: "No need to think too much, the two of us must be the main force in the attack. However, Fellow Daoist Li also has some credit for leading the way, so just give him more compensation."
the other side.
Zhang Jing turned his back to the two people, thoughts racing in his mind.
He took them around for another two months, until almost all the monks searching for him had gathered behind the Upside Down Mountain, and then transferred their location through that secret place.
This way you can get as much breathing space as possible.
"Well, if we further improve our cultivation, we can maintain the cloud body's unstable state, and Guanying Pavilion will not be as stubborn as it is now."
Zhang Jing sighed secretly, and then seemed to think of something, and his heart suddenly moved.
There is still one water-attribute artifact left... If he is lucky enough this time, he may not be able to completely get rid of the Qi tracking of the Shadow Pavilion.
At that time, the sea will be wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky will be high enough for birds to fly!
It's time to think.
A series of rustling sounds suddenly came from the distance.
Zhang Jing's heart sank and he couldn't help but look up.
In sight.
Five strange-looking creatures were approaching quickly, and their bodies were filled with waves of oppressive and violent energy.
Zhu Dayou and the others also noticed the incoming person, so they walked tiptoe behind Zhang Jing, with a hint of panic on their faces.
"Follow me."
Zhang Jing looked back and smiled helplessly.
After that, he led the two of them to carefully walk in another direction, trying to avoid the five powerful creatures.
In this case they are not
Especially for Zhang Jing, he is simply familiar with the road and naturally knows what to do.
Not long after.
Five tall figures quietly appeared where Zhang Jing and the others had just stopped.
"Are you going to chase me or not?"
A creature with three wings on its back and the body of a snake looked at the majestic figure in the front and asked in a low voice, with a bloodthirsty tone in its voice.
"No need," the majestic figure turned around little by little, opening and closing his three eyes one after another, "There is no target aura here, and the three of them together... should be the human team, there is no need to waste time on them."
"Nowadays, there are more and more competitors coming to the Upside Down Mountain. The top priority is to find the slippery Zhang Jing. Damn, this human race is really good at hiding."
"good!"
Another white deer creature with a strong aura stood up and added:
"And with five against three, we are not sure of killing them quickly. If we do, we are likely to attract other Hedao creatures."
"It won't be a big deal if we don't eat these three humans by then. If the five of us brothers are damaged, we will be in trouble."
…
…
Two months later.
A certain bottomless gorge.
Zhang Jing stared intently at a palm-sized spring in front of him.
But when I saw this spring water, it looked as pure as if there was nothing there, and no feathers could float.
"Jiukong Weak Shui! I originally thought that just finding an ordinary quality water-attributed innate divine object would be enough, but I never thought that I would bump into Jiukong Weak Shui."
"It can be said that the flowers planted intentionally do not bloom, but the willows planted unintentionally create shade."
He murmured in his heart, his whole body seemed to be hit by a huge surprise, and it was difficult to regain consciousness.
But how come Jiukong Weak Water appears here?
Could it be——
Zhang Jing unconsciously thought of the characteristics of Upside Down Mountain.
Upside Down Mountain, as its name suggests, many of the rules inside are opposite to those in the outside world. For example, light air will sink, while turbid air will rise.
So it seems to make sense that the lightest and pure weak water appears in this abyss.
Zhang Jing's mind moved and he couldn't help but look at the corner of the storage space, where four ordinary quality innate artifacts lay quietly.
The five elements are all in place, only the water attribute is missing.
Now it has been found.
"The materials for refining the five-color cloud flag are all in use, and the quality is beyond expectations. Next, it's time to find a fairy treasure furnace."
"Forget it, it's almost time, let's go to Fangshi."
Zhang Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
With the five-color cloud flag, the situation is quite different.
"Fellow Taoist, what are you looking at?"
A curious voice came from behind.
Zhang Jing quickly put away the Jiukong weak water, then pretended that nothing was wrong, stood up with a smile and covered it up:
"It's nothing. I was just thinking about whether I should take you to Fangshi. After all, we have been searching in the mountains for so long, and we are tired. We should take a break."
"Oh?" Zhu Dayou looked at Zhang Jing's empty hands without any trace, and said meaningfully: "Yes, it's almost ten months before I know it, and Taoist friend is still thoughtful."
Say it.
He directly took out the jade slip he bought at a huge price from Guiying Pavilion. Seeing that it showed that the target was still in the Upside Down Mountain at this moment, he sighed:
"That Zhang Jing is really awesome! In the past ten months, Taoist friends have led us brothers and sisters to search half of the upside down mountain, but no trace of that guy was found."
"Who says it's not the case? There are people looking for him all over the mountain, but they can't find even a single hair on him. It's really strange."
Zhu Hongxia frowned.
"Logically speaking, even if it's just a fly, we should have found it by now."
"Haha," Zhang Jing said with a calm smile: "If Zhang Jing is so easy to find, it won't be your turn."
"Too."
Hearing this, Zhu Hongxia nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice, seeming to agree with Zhang Jing's statement.
…
…
Time slowly moves backward.
As more and more creatures enter the Upside Down Mountain, the market becomes more and more lively.
The so-called Fangshi is located on a main peak deep in the Upside Down Mountain.
It was not built by a certain person or a certain force, but a temporary trading and repair place spontaneously formed by many Hedao creatures in the Upside Down Mountain out of the need for trading, rest, and even exchange of information.
This day.
Zhang Jing and the other three mingled in the endless crowd and slowly walked into Temporary Market.
"This is the Temporary City. It's built quite grandly."
Zhu Hongxia looked around curiously and exclaimed.
She originally thought that the temporary market would be very crude.
Now it seems that it is completely wrong. Its grandeur and splendor are not inferior to any city I have seen before, and it is even better.
"It's natural."
Zhu Dayou on the side smiled and explained to his little sister:
"It's just a matter of magical power and magic, and the people coming and going are all Taoist creatures. The markets we entered before did not have such conditions."
"Yes, I have never seen such a place where all the people who come and go are in harmony with the Tao."
Zhang Jing echoed in a low voice, his body tensing unconsciously.
Most of these people came here for him. He simply couldn't imagine what a tragic outcome he would face if his identity was exposed.
It's okay if you have the opening talisman with you, but at worst, you can just throw it out and divert the firepower.
The point is he didn't.
Thinking of this, Zhang Jing unconsciously glanced at the two brothers and sisters beside him, feeling slightly relieved.
With their cover and the fact that he had changed his body shape, appearance, and aura, he probably wouldn't be exposed that easily.
But there is one thing to say, you still have to get that thing as soon as possible, so that you can completely get rid of the aura locking method of Guanying Pavilion.
Unconsciously.
The three of them followed the broad street and came directly to an exquisite three-story shop.
As soon as they entered the door, a plump figure sitting at the back of the hall suddenly opened his eyes. However, when he saw the three of them together, he closed his eyes again and fell asleep.
at the same time.
An upright lizard creature came up to Zhang Jing and the others with a smile, and asked in a sharp voice: "Do you three need to rent a cave?"
Zhang Jing nodded and then asked:
"Is your cave safe?"
"The guests were joking. This temporary market is an agreed-upon resting place for everyone. No one would be so bold as to directly break the rules. Maybe he doesn't want to live anymore!"
"We rent three caves."
Zhu Dayou looked over Zhang Jing and said calmly.
"this--"
There was a hint of embarrassment in the lizard creature's voice.
