Killing God - Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Lu Wen
The Gaoling Mountain Range was a dangerous and unfathomable place, especially for Shen Shi, who had already been to Soul Suppressing Abyss once and had seen the Primordial Yin Dragon and Shaman Ghost hiding in the darkness. The mountain range stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers was the most dangerous place in the Sea Continent right now. Not to mention anything else, the life and death of the Shaman Ghost was still unknown. Although he had been heavily injured by the remnant sword of the Immortal Slaying Ancient Sword that day, in the end, the Shaman Ghost used the mysterious black crystal to block the fatal blow of the Immortal Slaying Remnant Sword and fled.

Perhaps it was currently hiding in a corner of Mount Gao Ling to recover from its injuries.

In addition, Over the past few days, the news from Gaoling Mountain had gradually returned. Shen Shi also knew that many ghosts had rushed out of the Soul Suppressing Abyss after the collapse that day and scattered into the mountains. Although there was no news of any powerful ghosts with astonishing divine abilities or magical power, it was clear that the mountain was more dangerous than before.

However, all of this could not stop Shen Shi’s determination to head to Mount Gao Ling. At most, it was to remind him to be more fully prepared.

Because there were Immortal Artifacts like the Ruyi Bag, it was very convenient to carry many important items with him. At least this time, Shen Shi had placed most of the most important items beside him. Apart from the twenty-seven newly created Second Grade talismans, He also bought a lot of yellow talisman paper, He made more First Grade talismans and brought them beside him. Apart from that, just in case, he hesitated for a few times and went to the spirit medicine hall on the viewing platform to buy some pills to nourish his qi and recover his primordial energy. In addition, he had been cultivating every day for the past month. When he was ready to leave, he discovered that there were very few spirit crystals in his Ruyi bag.

Money comes and goes so fast!

Apart from spirit crystals, medicinal pills, various magical talismans, and other important items that he usually had, there were also two ordinary-looking miscellaneous items in Shen Shi’s Ruyi bag, a broken sword, and a small piece of black crystal stone.

Of course, these two items originated from the two treasures that had once exuded great divine might under Soul Suppressing Abyss that day. However, ever since they were obtained by Shen Shi and brought out of Soul Suppressing Abyss, they seemed to have exhausted their spiritual energy or something else. They completely lost all of their strength and became ordinary. No matter how Shen Shi tried to probe, they were unmoved, causing Shen Shi, who had originally held high expectations, to feel rather depressed.

However, although it seemed useless, it was obviously impossible to throw away such an important item. Moreover, Shen Shi was also worried about leaving his side. Therefore, he decided to simply put it in his Ruyi bag and take it with him this time.

Before leaving, Shen Shi did not forget the conversation he had with Sun You that day, so he deliberately went to Sun You’s cave to find him and asked if Sun You intended to go to Gaoling Mountain with him.

Young Friend Sun hesitated for a while, but in the end, he still smiled embarrassedly and couldn’t say anything. Shen Shi immediately understood what he meant and scolded him, but he didn’t think much of it. Before he came over, he had actually thought that if he was in a family environment like Young Friend Sun’s, if he could cultivate peacefully, he would naturally not take risks at will. Moreover, the news from Gaoling Mountain was more dangerous than before, and ghosts and demonic beasts were rampant in this place.

In the end, Shen Shi walked down from Jinhong Mountain alone. A strong and slightly cold wind blew across the sea, stirring his clothes. In the sea breeze, he stepped onto the ship sailing towards the continent of Haizhou alone.

No one came to see him off. Everyone had their own path to walk. The path of cultivation was already long and difficult, so why would there be so many obstacles?

However, under the sunlight on this day, who knew if anyone would lean against the pillars and look into the distance?

Every time, would the difference become an eternal incantation?

That concern that was immersed in his heart lingered faintly in the depths of his heart, but I wonder who would be able to understand it?

Crossing the sea by boat, All the way to Liuyun City, Shen Shi did not delay in the city any longer. Although he remembered something about the Hou Clan when he entered the city and wanted to visit the Hou Clan’s mansion, this thought wasn’t too intense. His longing for Little Hei quickly suppressed this thought, so he went straight to the teleportation array in the city, paid the spirit crystals, and teleported to Gaoling City.

After arriving at the city again more than a month later, he could clearly feel that the liveliness of the city was not weakened in the slightest by the collapse of the mountain. Instead, it looked even more prosperous. There were more and more cultivators coming and going in this city, and it was obvious that the number of cultivators from sects had more than doubled.

The reason for this was self-evident, Everyone in the world came for the sake of profit. Even the great sects were no exception. Shen Shi did not see any disciples of the Soaring Firmament Sect in this city. However, he was sure that the Soaring Firmament Sect had already sent people to interfere in the investigation. Furthermore, no matter if it was the number of people or their status, they could not be underestimated. After all, he was Du Tiejian who rescued Jinhong Mountain that day.

Haizhou was the number one continent in the south. There were countless cultivators, and there were also astonishing numbers of cultivation sects of all sizes. However, since there was one of the “Four Righteous” sects in the world-Ling Xiao Sect, many people had intentionally or unintentionally regarded Haizhou as Ling Xiao Sect’s territory. Perhaps there were many people within the Ling Xiao Sect who had such thoughts.

As Shen Shi thought this, he strolled around Gaoling City. Before the Ling Xiao Sect descended the mountain, he couldn’t wait to take another step into Gaoling City and directly enter the mountain. However, at this point, Shen Shi felt a little hesitant in his heart. He wondered if he should go straight out of the city and go up the mountain, or should he inquire about the news in this city?

After all, more than a month had passed since he first arrived here. The situation in Mount Gaoling had greatly changed. Many ghosts had escaped after the collapse and tremors, making the mountain even more dangerous. It was almost completely different from when he had come here before. However, the most important thing was that Shen Shi finally realized that he didn’t seem to know how to find Little Hei.

The Gaoling Mountain Range stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, and its territory was boundless. Naturally, it was impossible to find it one by one. To find a Little Hei pig in such a vast mountain range was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. Even though he had thought of going directly to the place where the Soul Suppressing Abyss had collapsed, more than a month had passed, and the place had long since become completely unrecognizable. Whether Little Hei would remain where he was was was also a question.

After thinking for a while, Shen Shi finally decided to go into the mountain to look for it, because he quickly understood something. If he was looking for someone, then it would be fine. There might be a sliver of hope for him to obtain information, but if he was looking for a seemingly ordinary pig … In such a chaotic situation, it should be impossible for anyone to notice it.

His mind was set, He walked out of the city, Seeing that the city gate was gradually becoming clearer, On the same road, there were quite a few cultivators who left the city in the same direction as him. There were some who accompanied him, and there were quite a few who walked alone. Some of the cultivators chatted in their ears from time to time. Most of them were talking about rumors about the changes in the mountain. It seemed that most of the cultivators along the way were also aiming for the illusory treasures in the mountains.

Shen Shi casually touched the Ruyi Bag at his waist. Although he could not feel anything through the bag, the appearance of the Immortal Slaying Remnant Sword still appeared in his mind. He wondered if this broken sword was the treasure they were looking for?

Right at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind him with a hint of complaint, “Senior Brother Chen, what I said is true. Why don’t you believe me?”

“I’m not a three-year-old child. It’s weird to believe you,” a rough voice sneered with a bit of disapproval.

The first person said anxiously, “What did I lie to you for? I’m telling the truth. A few days ago, I got lost in the mountains and accidentally entered that old forest. I did see a large group of wild boars and demonic beasts gathered together for some reason, crossing the mountains and fighting against other high-grade demonic beasts.”

The rough voice was clearly still unconvinced. “You must be scared out of your wits. I’ve cultivated for so long, and I’ve seen seven or eight hundred demonic beasts. I’ve never heard of the weakest pig demon daring to fight a ferocious high-tier demonic beast. If you really want to see a beast like the Dark King Tiger, all the pig demons will either run away or be eaten in fear, without exception.”

At first, the lost junior apprentice-brother was stunned for a moment. He seemed to be a bit poor. After a moment, he said embarrassedly, “Oh … well, in fact, what I saw before was about the same. However, senior apprentice-brother, listen to me. I really saw that miraculous scene this time. Why don’t you follow me to the old forest? Perhaps, there might be some harvest?”

Shen Shi shook his head. He thought to himself that these words sounded really unreliable. Sure enough, Senior Brother Chen also snorted and said, “I’m going into the mountains to search for treasures. How can I accompany you to wander around? What are you doing there? There are so many pig demons, so are we going to see pigs?”

Although Shen Shi was worried, However, when he heard this last sentence, he couldn’t help but smile. He thought to himself that Senior Brother Chen’s words were rather interesting. The junior apprentice-brother was also speechless for a moment. He said, “No, this, this” After thinking for a while, he suddenly said, “Right, it seems that I saw a black pig in front of the pigs that day. It seemed to have some sort of leader’s intention. It was carrying thousands of wild boar demonic beasts to fight against those ferocious high-grade demonic beast servants. Perhaps, maybe it was one.”

Shen Shi suddenly couldn’t hear the words behind him. At that moment, there seemed to be a buzzing sound in his mind. Only those few words echoed and whistled,

“… A black pig, a black pig. It seems that there is a black pig that is different from the others!”

He suddenly turned around and said, Facing the two people behind him, Not far behind him, Two people were walking. The young man’s sharp mouth and monkey cheeks looked very clever. He was waving his hands and spitting at the senior brother beside him. It seemed that he wanted to try his best to convince him, but the senior brother Chen was a big man with a beard. He looked at his junior brother with disdain. Obviously, he was not interested in his junior brother’s words.

However, at this moment, Shen Shi’s gaze landed on the young man with a somewhat urgent expression. He took a step forward and was about to ask him about it. His actions here were quickly noticed by the two brothers and they turned their heads to look at him.

However, just as Shen Shi was eager to speak, someone suddenly stepped out from his side and stepped between Shen Shi and the two of them. A tall figure covered Shen Shi’s gaze.

“You two are too courteous.” A man’s voice rang out from the man with his back facing Shen Shi. He cupped his hands and bowed to the senior brother. Then, he said with some courtesy, “In the Descending Mountain Bear Hall’s Xie Feiguang, I accidentally heard what this fellow said about the wild boar vs. the ferocious beast. I’m quite curious. Do you dare to give me some pointers?”
