Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain

 Cheers spread.

 The alarmed Chen Yulou and his party quickly stood up from the sand valley.

Even Pat, who had always only thought about taking care of the camels, could not hide his surprise on his face. He punched a wooden stick and followed the others up the sand dunes.

With the help of a few young guys, I finally reached the top. I took a few deep breaths, suppressed my panting, stretched out my hands to build an awning, and looked out into the distance.

 I saw only the end of the rolling sky and the earth.

 A black line faintly appeared.

 It's a pity that he is old and has dazzled eyes, so he cannot see clearly.

 “It’s not an illusion...”

Pat murmured quietly to himself.

  He rubbed his eyes vigorously a few more times.

　　After the wind and snow, the weather became clearer and clearer. The sunshine, which had disappeared for more than half a month, became blazing and gave me a rare warm feeling when it fell on me.

  Wipe off a piece of dust covering your face.

 Watch your eyes.

 After a long time, Pat finally saw the black line clearly.

It feels like there is a black dragon lying quietly in the thousands of miles of yellow sand. The mountains move closer from both sides to the middle, and finally rise up from the ground to form two high mountains.

 Between the two mountains, it is like a heavenly gate stands.

　　gives people an incomparable sense of mystery.

I can't help but want to cross the Tianmen and go inside the sacred mountain to find out.

 He stayed in Kunmo City for decades.

 Although this is the first time I have come to the Black Desert, I have heard countless rumors about it over the years.

 Those merchants who come and go, every time they mention it, there are always endless stories to tell.

 It’s been a long time.

Even Pat himself couldn’t tell whether those were true or false.

So much so that when he looked at the undulating black mountains in the sky, he wondered if he had been caught in the devil's illusion.

 Among the many rumors.

 One of the most widely circulated sayings is.

The people who once lived in the black desert offended the gods, were abandoned by the gods, cut off from life, and became the residence of devils.

 And once someone breaks into it rashly.

 You will be targeted by the devil.

They will do everything possible and use various terrorist methods to prevent outsiders from entering the desert.

　　man-eating ferocious beasts, murderous monsters.

 But the most terrifying thing is the mirage that cannot be seen through.

 At the moment before death, many people will see many wonderful sights such as oases, large lakes, and ancient cities.

 Give hope to people who are dying.

But when they go through all kinds of hardships, they will find that it is all an illusion, an illusion that leads people completely to the abyss of death.

Therefore.

Only then would Pat doubt whether what he saw now was real?

But he was still hesitant. The three brothers and sisters who came up first were trembling with excitement when they looked at the two black mountains.

 Holy mountain!

 A scene that has appeared countless times in dreams.

 At this moment, it really appears in front of you.

 It is difficult to empathize with it unless you are in it.

 “Double Black Mountain.”

 “Senior brother...it’s it.”

 “We finally found it!”

Hua Ling covered her lips. She thought she was strong enough, but the moment she really saw it, she found that her emotions were beyond her control, and the hot tears couldn't stop falling.

Although the old foreigner on the side seemed calm.

 But his red eyes and trembling shoulders clearly revealed his inner feelings at this moment.

 Since I was a child, I have heard about the sacred mountain.

He never thought that one day he would set foot here.

 Hong Kong River, Shuangheishan, to Kongqueshan, Shuanghei Village.

　　The once prosperous tribe is now left with only a lonely, deserted ghost village.

At this moment, his heart was surging, as if countless waves had hit him.

Countless figures appeared in his mind.

 Finally, the image was fixed on the thin, stern face of the senior brother.

　　Since the previous generation, Taoist Taoist Mian Shan passed away, it has been all supported by him alone for so many years.

 The suffering they endured was far beyond their imagination.

So after leaving the village, the old foreigners would work hard to practice martial arts, study many secret techniques of the Moving Mountain lineage, and take the initiative to take on the task of exploring the way to the tomb.

I just want to share the burden for my senior brother.

But even so, he still saw many times with his own eyes the scene where the senior brother was seriously injured, unable to suppress the ghost curse, and vomiting blood.

 Especially before entering Pingshan.

 The curse breaks out more and more frequently.

 The spitted blood also changed from scarlet to golden.

 So much so that during that period, he couldn't sleep all night long. Whenever he closed his eyes, he would see the scene of his senior brother's death. It haunted him like a nightmare.

 Happily, the senior brother thought that he knew nothing, or he just didn’t want him and Hua Ling to worry.

Every time, I will pretend as if nothing has happened.

But the old foreigner knows...if it hadn't been for that golden elixir, which allowed him to practice and enter the country, the ghost curse on the senior brother would have completely broken out.

 This is why he respects Chen Yulou so much.

For this day, the ancestors of Zagrama have waited for thousands of years, and the senior brothers have also suffered for thousands of days and nights.

Now, I finally got through all the dark nights and saw the light.

 The old foreigner clenched his fists tightly.

 Trying hard not to let the tears fall in my eyes.

"yes."

 “Found it!”

After a long silence, Partridge Whistle let out a long breath.

Looking deeply at the two mountains on the horizon.

I just feel like my heartstrings, which have been stretched all my life, are finally relaxed at this moment.

 “Really?”

Kunlun, Yang Fang, Huamaguai and Miss Hong have been afraid to speak.

 After hearing his words, I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy for them from the bottom of my heart.

"What are you waiting for?"

“Shopkeeper, Chief Yang, I’m going to let the brothers set off!”

Huamaguai rubbed his hands and said impatiently.

"good!"

 Chen Yulou naturally would not refuse.

　　But Partridge Whistle rarely shook his head, "These days we have been rushing so fast that our brothers are exhausted both physically and mentally. It is better to let them take a good rest first."

“After all, the Double Black Mountains are there and they won’t disappear.”

"Is not it?"

 Seeing him purse his lips, his eyes were calm.

Chen Yulou also glanced at him in surprise.

 Be calm in every big event.

These words are easy to say, but extremely difficult to do.

Ask yourself, if he were like a partridge whistle and the holy mountain he yearned for was so close at hand, it would be difficult for him to remain so peaceful.

"this…"

Huamaguai, who was already about to turn around and go down the mountain, paused and turned around subconsciously. His eyes swept back and forth between him and Chen Yulou, obviously undecided.

“Since Brother Yang has said so.”

“Then let the brothers have a good rest and be energetic before taking action.”

 Putting away his thoughts, Chen Yulou waved his hand at him, "Sharpening your knife will keep you from chopping wood."

 “Yes, from the shopkeeper.”

Hearing this, Huamaguai took back his thoughts.

The group was not in a hurry to return, so they stood on the sand dunes, silently looking into the distance, admiring the desert scenery in the winter.

 Gradually, Hua Ling and the old foreigner finally regained their composure.

 Just a look of joy that is still beyond words.

 Chen Yulou took advantage of their rest and walked alone among the sand dunes, but his mind contacted Luofu again after many days.

 If it weren’t for the spiritual pull.

 Always aware of its movements.

 Chen Yulou even wondered whether it had already crossed the Black Desert and went to the Kunlun Mountains.

 At this moment, a thought came to me.

Not long after, a black shadow as thin as sand and dust appeared in the endless blue sky.

We are about to let him go to explore outside Shuangheishan first.

 But before he spoke, a strange look suddenly flashed across his expression. In addition to Luofu's figure on the sky, there are clearly several black shadows on the side.

Looking closely, they were clearly the goshawks we saw when we passed through the Tianshan Mountains before.

 They can be regarded as the absolute overlord of the sky in the entire Western Region.

Even the argali, which lives in the snow line all year round, cannot escape the pursuit of snow leopards, nor can it avoid the hunting of goshawks.

 But at this moment, looking at the flight paths of those goshawks, they were clearly flying in formation for Luofu.

 Seeing this scene, even Chen Yulou, who knew Luofu's character well, couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

 I know this guy is getting wilder and wilder.

 But he really didn’t expect that he would be so wild.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying about taming an eagle on grass carp. This is because eagles, such birds of prey, are wild and difficult to tame. Therefore, even the most experienced falcon tamers can hardly tame a wild eagle in less than a year and a half.

 Must take time to cook slowly.

This is how the word "Ao Ying" came into being.

 But Chen Yulou only saw it a few days ago when he was in Gumozhou, and it was still alone at that time.

 That is to say.

How many goshawks did it forcibly capture in just a few days?

You can guess without even thinking about it. With Luofu's domineering character, he definitely doesn't have the patience to slowly tame him. There is a high probability that he will suppress it directly with the blood of Phoenix.

 For a moment, even he couldn't help but sympathize with those goshawks.

However, this idea did not last long.

 Exhaled and conveyed his thoughts.

Soon a clear chirping sound came from my mind.

 Looking up again, several black shadows quickly disappeared above the head and headed straight for the Shuanghei Mountains in the distance.

 As the lair of the snake god.

Chen Yulou knows the horror of Shuangheishan better than anyone else.

If you are an ordinary person, your five senses and six consciousnesses are closed, and you still cannot feel the frightening power of heaven. However, the stronger your strength and the higher your cultivation, the more severe the pressure you will experience.

　　Three feathers have grown out from behind Luofu's tail.

This means that the Phoenix bloodline has awakened to a very deep level.

If it falls forcibly onto Shuangheishan.

 The suppressive power from the snake god's remains will definitely seriously injure it.

Although the snake **** is dead, the ability to create illusions in his mind has not disappeared. The ghost cave where his bones are buried is equivalent to a vast place.

  No matter how strong Luofu is, it cannot be its opponent.

 So, Chen Yulou’s order to it was to spy.

 And that guy Luofu is also smart. At this moment, he can see through the spirit seed that he is clearly behind dozens of meters away, driving the three goshawks forward to do something.

 “The shopkeeper’s…”

 While he was still immersed in the novel experience of Luofu's perspective.

Huamaguai’s voice came.

A golden light gathered in Chen Yulou's eyes and turned clear instantly.

 “It’s almost time to rest.”

 “Look, should we leave now or not?”

Hearing this, Chen Yulou subconsciously turned around and looked around. Under the sand dune, the guys who were sitting everywhere, holding naan cakes and water to replenish their strength, had already stood up.

 Almost half an hour before and after.

 At this moment, most of the energy has been restored, and he is looking at the group of others on the top of the mountain, waiting for orders.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　fare

"good!"

 After receiving the accurate reply, Huamaguai couldn’t stop smiling on his face.

 He is not too curious about Shuanghei Mountain, but... the ancient city of Jingjue is right at the foot of the mountain.

 A regime that has ruled the countries in the Western Regions for many years.

 Even if it is just a small country.

 But the city must also be extremely luxurious.

 This can be seen from Xiye and Gumozhou.

As long as you dig out the ancient city of Jingjue, this trip to the Western Regions will not be in vain. Maybe one trip back and forth will be worth the busy work of previous years.

 After all, apart from imperial mausoleums, even large tombs in the Tang and Song dynasties where extravagant burials were popular, it is impossible for a tomb to contain as much as a city.

 “Brothers, let’s go!”

 Took a few steps forward quickly.

Huamaguai shouted uncontrollably.

In an instant, the shouts in the sand valley were like thunder, and everyone who had stopped to wait jumped on the backs of camels, crossed the sand dunes, and rushed towards the black mountain range in the distance.

Looking from the sand dunes, it seems that they are only thirty or fifty miles apart.

　　　It is like running to death on Danwang Mountain.

 The team set off at three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was not until dark that they finally approached the boundary of the Holy Mountain.

It is hard to imagine that a rolling mountain would suddenly appear in the endless sea of ​​sand.

 Chen Yulou, who was sitting on the back of a camel, looked calm. He had asked Luofu to explore in advance before setting off.

　　Although I had previously speculated that someone had entered the city early, I did not notice the presence of any living person.

 By the light of the sky that has not completely disappeared.

It can still be clearly seen that the Double Black Mountains, regarded as sacred by the Zagrama clan, are more appropriately described as two huge stones than mountains.

 It's just that it's a bit exaggerated because of its size.

Occupying an area of ​​dozens of kilometers, only a shallow backbone is exposed in the sand sea. The absolute part is like the tip of an iceberg, submerged in the depths of the sand sea.

 “Oona, which direction is the ancient city?”

 Chen Yulou looked around.

Although I feel that Shuangheishan is somewhat unworthy of its name, from the perspective of Feng Shui, this place occupies the geographical situation and swallows up everything. Compared with when I passed the Qinling Mountains that day, I could see the eight hundred miles of dragon veins in the distance.

 This means that the environment is too harsh and it is too far away from the Central Plains Dynasty.

 Otherwise.

 Based on the dragon vein pattern of this place, it may not be another Lishan or Jiuwei.

 Looking away from the two black magnetic mountains, Chen Yulou turned to look at Oona behind him and asked in a low voice.

 At this moment, her eyes were full of memories.

　　It seems that I was reminded of the shock I felt when I walked through the vast black desert with Atta and saw the Double Black Mountains for the first time many years ago.

 “At the southern foot.”

Seeing her ask, Oona raised her hand and pointed in a direction.

 Chen Yulou did not delay either.

 It is getting dark now, so we must make plans in advance and setting up camp in the city is the top priority.

The Partridge Whistle obviously knew this, so he suppressed his impulse and followed the team around the foot of the mountain.

 About ten minutes later.

　　The last ray of the setting sun sets on the horizon of the sand sea.

 A huge ancient city, just like a girl holding a pipa, half-hiding her face, finally took off the gauze on her face, and suddenly appeared in the eyes of everyone.

 Look up.

 Countless ruins, towers and high walls are rooted in the yellow sand.

 The most eye-catching thing among them is undoubtedly a tilted black stone tower.

I don’t know why, but the moment he saw it, Chen Yulou was inexplicably reminded of the Gu Ping Mountain, which was also skewed and inserted horizontally among countless green mountains like bamboo shoots.

 “So magnificent!”

"This is the capital. Xiye and Gumozhou were too petty."

“Damn it, how big is this? Can it accommodate 100,000 people?”

Although most of the ancient city has collapsed and weathered after thousands of years of wind and sand erosion, you can still get a glimpse of its grandeur from those ancient buildings and pavilions.

 The gang's eyes were wide open.

They couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

This is the first real ancient city they saw after entering the desert.

Looking at the undulating city walls in the sand dunes, the outer city and the inner city combined are at least dozens of miles in diameter, which is no worse than the ancient city of the Central Plains Dynasty.

 “Let’s go, let’s go into the city.”

 After the brief shock, Huamaguai led a small team into the city to investigate the truth.

 Everyone holds a torch in his hand.

Looking from a distance, it looks like a fire dragon passing through the dark night.

only…

 Just approaching the outside of the city and not having time to enter.

The smile on Huamaguai's face suddenly froze, her heart beat like thunder, and she looked more frightened than seeing a ghost.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

 The front is not far away.

 Under the ancient city gate that collapsed with only half left.

 Thirteen corpses were hung on the gate tower, and the corpses had dried.

With their green eyes and curly hair, they were all foreign devils like the people they met outside Xiye City that day.

 At this moment, it is swaying gently in the night wind.

 Just like...every household in Xiangxi Hunan will smoke bacon during the Chinese New Year and hang it in a row on the beams! (End of chapter)
