Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality
Chapter 5 Death in danger
Leaving Fairy Cat Valley, entering the Black Domain Forest.
Zhang Xuan looked up, the fog barrier covered the huge tree canopy, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
His heart was always hanging. If he really encountered any danger, there was no better way except to run away.
He only practiced the Rain-Transforming Art, which was okay for growing spiritual grains.
In a fight, the Rain-Transforming Art was useless.
His parents left behind a yellow-grade lower-grade technique.
But practicing techniques requires resources.
He only had a quota of 20 kilograms of spiritual grains every year, which could only barely maintain the realm of Qi Refining Level 1. How could he have extra resources to practice techniques?
Now the fog barrier is getting more and more serious. If he can't get the Black Lake Mud this time, three-tenths of the spiritual field will be eroded by the fog barrier, and he can only become a mortal, driven out of Zhangjiaji by his family, and live in the mortal area of Fairy Cat Valley.
The fog barrier is like a river flowing out from the depths of the Black Domain Forest.
Everyone walked forward along the route of the fog barrier, and walked for almost a day.
He didn't encounter any spiritual beasts along the way.
After all, the monsters also hate these fog barriers, and will go around them when they see them.
However, Zhang Xuan did not dare to slack off.
He knew that there was something more terrifying than monsters in the depths of the fog barrier - the barrier beast.
He reached his right hand into his arms and touched a talisman with frayed edges.
Many things at home were sold, but he kept this talisman left by his parents.
This is a ground escape talisman, a first-level low-grade talisman. Once injected with spiritual power, it can escape twenty feet underground.
This is his life-saving talisman.
"I think we blew the barrier beast too hard. We have been walking for so long and haven't seen the barrier beast come out."
"Yes, yes, we have been walking for a day, and I am so tired."
"Why don't we take a break and eat something."
The three people who spoke were Zhang Sanqian's three sons, Zhang Dadou, Zhang Erdou, and Zhang Sandou.
Zhang Sanqian has 30 mu of spiritual fields. Although it cannot be compared with the inner collection, it is considered "rich" in the outer collection, and the cultivation resources are much more than other families in Temple Street.
It is precisely because of the lack of resources that Zhang Sanqian's three sons have also entered the second level of Qi Refining, which can be regarded as the existence only weaker than Zhang Jun.
Zhang Jun looked back at the others. After a day's journey, they were all exhausted.
"Then take a rest and be alert."
Everyone heard it and collapsed on the ground unconsciously.
There was no rest throughout the day. The cultivators walked fast and walked at least 500 miles.
The fog barrier has a certain corrosive effect on cultivators. Even Qi Refining cultivators like them can't stand it for a long time.
Everyone took out food from their packages.
Zhang Xuan brought all the spiritual grains at home.
If they can really dig up the mud of Hei Ze this time, they will not worry about not having spiritual grains in the future.
If they die in danger, there is no point in leaving those spiritual grains.
Zhang Xuan ate five taels of spiritual grains in one breath.
Although it tastes not very good if eaten raw without being cooked.
However, after eating, the body is instantly filled with spiritual energy, and the fatigue just now is swept away.
At this moment, Zhang Xuan saw a dark shadow coming out from the depths of the fog barrier.
"Beware, the barrier beast is coming!" Zhang Jun roared.
These young men quickly stood up from the ground and looked at the dark shadow that was getting closer and closer with a nervous look.
The three brothers of Zhang Sanqian's family actually took out a spiritual knife of a low-grade magic weapon.
The people around were envious.
A low-grade magic weapon costs at least 30 spiritual stones, and only a few people have it in the outside world.
Like Zhang Xuan, he only carried a spiritual hoe with him, which was used for farming and was not of good quality at all.
At this time, Zhang Xuan held the spiritual hoe tightly in one hand and the earth escape talisman tightly in the other.
The black shadow was getting closer, and Zhang Xuan could see the barrier beast clearly at this time. It was made of thick fog barrier, no higher than the knee, with a pointed mouth and long ears.
"Kill——"
The three brothers of Zhang Sanqian's family rushed forward with spiritual knives in hand.
The beast paused for a moment, as if it had many questions about the three people rushing over.
The three brothers thought that the beast was scared, and they were overjoyed, and rushed forward faster.
When they rushed to the beast, the three brothers tacitly chopped the spiritual knives in their hands on the beast's head.
The beast did not dodge or avoid.
"Dang——"
The three spiritual knives chopped on the beast's head, making a crisp sound.
The three brothers were shocked so much that blood was dripping from their mouths, and the spiritual knives were broken into several pieces.
Looking at the beast again, it was not hurt at all.
"It can shatter the lower-grade magic weapon, and its physical strength is comparable to that of a late-stage first-level demon beast. Run away..." Zhang Dadou shouted in fear.
The crowd dispersed and immediately ran back.
But more than a dozen beasts suddenly emerged from the surrounding area and surrounded these people directly.
The beast with a pointed mouth and long ears was obviously the leader of the beasts. It rushed over like a flash of lightning, and its head drilled into Zhang Dadou's heart and came out from his back.
"Brother..."
Zhang Erdou shouted in pain, and threw a first-level middle-grade talisman, the Thunder Talisman.
"Boom..."
A flash of lightning exploded on the ground, creating a deep pit several feet deep.
Even with such a powerful force, it only slightly blocked the beast for half a breath.
Zhang Xuan saw that the people around him had no power to resist, and they were harvested by the beasts like ripe rice.
At this time, he truly witnessed the cruelty of the world of immortal cultivation.
He gritted his teeth and directly released the earth escape talisman.
His whole body drilled into the ground at once.
He fled underground.
Until the power of the escape talisman dissipates.
He hid beneath the ground, motionless.
He held his breath, listening to the sound of the fighting above slowly getting thinner until it completely disappeared.
It was said to be a long time, but it only lasted less than 10 breaths.
The barrier beast with a pointed mouth and long ears began to sweep the battlefield with a dozen barrier beasts.
It slapped hard and the earth cracked.
Dozens of people hiding underground can be seen at a glance.
"Run away!"
Henry Zhang saw Zhang Jun, Zhang Dawu and several others hiding underground.
At this time, everyone ran away desperately.
The beast with a pointed mouth and long ears didn't seem to be in a hurry, and was just chasing after these people playfully.
After running for dozens of miles, the few people running at the back were directly pierced through the chest by the barrier beast.
At this time, the one at the bottom is Henry Zhang.
He had no doubt that he would be the next one to be pierced through the chest by the barrier beast.
Zhang Dawu looked back at Henry Zhang behind him and threw him a talisman.
"Whether you can survive or not depends on you!"
Henry Zhang caught the talisman and found that it was a first-level low-grade defensive talisman - the Golden Armor Talisman.
He directly input his spiritual power, and the golden armor talisman slowly melted and turned into a golden armor draped around his body.
The beast with a sharp beak and long ears slapped it down with one claw.
Henry Zhang felt that his life was in danger and hurriedly threw the spiritual hoe behind him.
"Bang!"
The spirit hoe was shattered, and the barrier beast's claws directly grabbed Henry Zhang's back.
"Boom——"
The golden armor on Henry Zhang's body was broken into pieces, and his body flew forward.
"Pfft..."
Henry Zhang spat out a mouthful of blood, and a blood hole appeared on his back.
Fortunately, there was a spiritual hoe and a golden armor talisman in the way, otherwise this claw would have penetrated his body.
However, even if this is the case, he is still seriously injured now.
Henry Zhang was lying on the ground, watching Zhang Jun and Zhang Dawu fleeing further and further away, thinking that he might be completely dead this time.
The barrier beast with a sharp mouth and long ears rushed toward Henry Zhang like a bolt of lightning.
"It's over..."
Henry Zhang felt miserable.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped from the tree and rode directly on the head of the barrier beast.
Henry Zhang looked at this black shadow with a thin tail and whiskers.
"Spirit-seeking rat..."
Henry Zhang was delighted.
