Emperor of Nine Suns

Qiu San looked at Chu Chen with eyes full of expectation. In his faint words, Chu Chen could hear a different flavor.

This Qiu San... he seems to have pinned the fate of the remaining people on the ship on himself?

Elder Lingxin remained silent, while Chu Chen scratched his head and said, "Yes, I have indeed discovered a 'road', and now I am following such a road to find the exit."

"Brother Tong is indeed extremely talented, and his spiritual awareness is far beyond ordinary people. I will find someone who can follow your footsteps and hopefully get out of this huge mountain."

Qiu San's expression became excited.

"In this vast world, it is indeed not easy to find the way. Brother Tong is really the lucky star of our big ship!"

"This road can only be left with hope, I can't guarantee anything else."

"It's good to have hope." Qiu San nodded, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes, "Can I ask how long it will take to get out of this huge mountain? Although we still have some food with us. , but I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on for long, this situation is very serious on this deserted island with no supplies.”

"I haven't decided on this yet." Chu Chen shook his head calmly, his eyes calm.

"oh?"

Qiu San took a slight breath, "This huge mountain is too vast. Even at the speed of our monks, we can't even think about getting out in less than a few months or even half a year. If you want to climb over it quickly, I'm afraid we have to take a shortcut. But this mountain is so huge, even a shortcut would probably be far away. Brother Tong, how sure are you of leading everyone away?"

"To be honest, except for the spiritual elders, I have no responsibility to take anyone out of here."

Chu Chen looked at Qiu San calmly, "If President Qiu has confidence in me, when I set off early tomorrow morning, he will lead everyone to follow me. If you can keep up with my speed, just follow me. Don't The part depends on everyone’s luck.”

"That... that's natural." Qiu San nodded hurriedly, with a smile on his face, "Brother Tong promised to let everyone follow you, that's easy, we just follow you, other things I won’t bother you, life or death is all our own fault.”

"Well, it's getting late and we have to rest. I'll be on the road as soon as I get up tomorrow morning." Chu Chen nodded and signaled Qiu San to leave.

"Then I won't disturb you two. I'll make some arrangements and have a good rest tonight.

I won’t have the energy to leave until tomorrow. "Qiu San smiled, cupped his hands at the two of them, turned around and left.

"This giant mountain is so big that even the powerful ones in the Spirit River Realm may not be able to fly across it. Tong Hu, don't be too pushy. Although the Desolate Vein is a good thing, if you can't get it, give up as soon as possible."

"I know."

Lingxin tidied up the vulture barbecue that was placed on the fire, and then she and Chu Chen lay back to back next to the campfire, and quickly fell asleep.

Humans are gregarious creatures. When people gather together, their sense of security is doubled, so Chu Chen and Elder Lingxin also slept very deeply that night.

Qiu San's management methods are very extraordinary. After leading everyone to eat, they set up camp, raised several huge bonfires around to keep warm, and arranged several simple formations scattered around, making such a desolate place It brings a sense of calm and tranquility.

While sleeping until midnight, Chu Chen suddenly felt a special ripple in the air, which woke him up from his deep sleep.

Looking around, I saw that it was already midnight, the surroundings were quiet, and everyone was asleep.

The blazing bonfires in the open space have also been extinguished, leaving only piles of red fires, emitting a faint gleam in the silent night sky.

Since there were no living creatures in this barren mountain, Qiu San did not send anyone to keep watch, and the air was extremely quiet.

In this quiet void, weak spiritual power fluctuations faintly came from not far away, carrying a rare manic and urgent flavor.

This is...someone is practicing? Or a sneak attack? ?

Frowning, Chu Chen carefully leaned over, gently placed Lingxin who was sleeping on his back, and leaned against the warm rocks baked by the campfire.

After untying his robe and covering Lingxin, Chu Chen sucked his palms and picked up two dead branches from the pile of firewood not far away. He gently touched them on the ground. His whole body was as light as a big bird. It flew towards the direction where the wave came from.

The night was silent, and above the inky black sky, a bright moon was as bright as jade, pouring down pieces of pale silver light towards the earth.

When Chu Chen walked through a vast rock forest, he saw a girl in red clothes and a handsome face practicing silently on a dark black rock.

On her body, a black light of spiritual power spread faintly, exuding cold and strange fluctuations.

Chu Chen immediately understood why he woke up suddenly. The girl in red was also an acquaintance of his, and her safety affected him.

Now the girl in red has obviously reached a critical stage in her cultivation. It is obvious that a strong ink light can be seen tumbling in her body, constantly pouring into the ink-black rock under her body, and then bringing out wisps of dark essence. The iron essence returned to her body, forming a complete cycle.

This... seems to be fine iron basalt?

Looking at the black rock sitting under the girl, Chu Chen nodded clearly.

Although this black rock looks like a rock, it is actually an extremely pure refined iron ore, containing rich refined iron essence. It is a favorite ore for monks who practice metal-based techniques.

It was obvious that the girl in red accidentally discovered this fine iron basalt, so she wanted to use the fine iron essence of the basalt to forcibly improve her cultivation.

It's just that she seemed to be practicing a little too impatiently. The surging iron essence was not completely refined and purified before she was absorbed into her body. It contained too many impurities and would affect the foundation of the monk's cultivation.

Sure enough, when the jet-black spiritual power reached the fifth week, the girl in red suddenly trembled, and the strong black light suddenly lost control when it entered the Qihai area of ​​Dantian, and actually reversed. Then it went up and poured directly into her chest and abdomen.

Then he saw the girl spit out a large mouthful of bright red blood with a "wow" sound, her face instantly became extremely pale, and her expression suddenly became depressed.

Sure enough, there were too many impurities in the refined iron energy, so she practiced too hastily and went crazy! !

Chu Chen's heart moved, and he tapped the dead branch in his hand on the ground several times. He floated up and jumped behind the girl.

He paused for a moment, then gently pressed the acupuncture points on the girl's smooth back. Wave after wave of mellow and vast spiritual power surged into her limbs and bones like a mighty river.
