Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 57
Chapter 57 Mysterious Valley
Outside Yellow City, a youth dragged a long shadow out of the city!
After Ye Feng finished buying more than ten other herbs, he did not return to his clan. Instead, he rushed towards Black Wind Mountain, intending to search for the Earth Core Herbs.
Before she left, the girl had described the shape of the terrain grass. She was also afraid that Ye Feng would miss it if he encountered the geocentric grass. She did not hesitate to make an exception and drew a picture of a heart-shaped pentaphyllum grass that was lifelike.
Baili was not very far away. It was only about two hours. Ye Feng arrived at Black Wind Mountain before dark. Waves of dark winds blew around him. This Black Wind Mountain was very strange. There were black stones everywhere, and even some plants were black. Even the hurricane brought waves of black gas.
The sky had already darkened. Ye Feng stopped advancing. At night, the Black Wind Mountain was filled with dark winds and even baleful auras. It was rumored that this place was the Demon Race’s habitat back then.
However, that was many years ago. Rumors had it that Black Wind Mountain wasn’t like this hundreds of years ago. Later on, a great battle broke out and some demons were driven here. In the end, they were all killed and turned into a great battle. Blood stained the ground red, causing the year-round gloomy winds to blow. Finally, the scarlet ground turned black bit by bit.
In the evening, there were even waves of ghost cries that were extremely ear-piercing, causing people to tremble. Fortunately, Ye Feng had a fearless heart and was not afraid of anything.
Ye Feng stood on the nearest mountain peak to the Black Wind Mountain. He looked down at the entire Black Wind Mountain. The surroundings were in full view. There was only one entrance to the Black Wind Mountain. Back then, the surroundings were blocked, leaving only a gap. Now, only this gap could enter.
After observing the terrain clearly, Ye Feng found a place to hide from the wind and rest in peace. When the sky lit up, he entered the Black Wind Mountain and searched for the geocentric grass.
He was speechless all night!
As soon as the sky lit up, Ye Feng retreated from his cultivation. In one night, his True Qi was much purer, especially when it came to the Star Transformation. Ye Feng felt that he had touched Xiao Cheng. Over the past few days, he had continuously absorbed the power of the Stars, allowing the first transformation of the Nine Transformations of God and Demon to finally cultivate to Xiao Cheng.
His body emitted a sparkling precious light, like stars, illuminating Ye Feng’s body. His physical body was much stronger.
“Time to go!”
Ye Feng no longer lingered, he rushed towards the entrance of Black Wind Mountain. In a few breaths, Ye Feng appeared at the entrance of Black Wind Mountain.
After examining the surrounding terrain, Ye Feng entered the Black Wind Mountain and discovered that the temperature had suddenly dropped. The temperature here was much lower than outside. In addition, it was late autumn, and a burst of cold air came over.
Ye Feng only had good luck to raise his zhenqi and disperse the cold qi. His body began to warm up. Only when he reached the Xiantian realm could he not invade the cold and summer, and it was impossible for him to do so the day after tomorrow.
The ground was very soft. It was as if he was stepping on a human body. Every step would leave behind a footprint. Waves of gloomy wind whistled past like knives, causing Ye Feng’s cheeks to ache.
Alert, Ye Feng slowly walked towards the depths of Black Wind Mountain. Along the way, Ye Feng rarely saw any plants growing. Even if they grew, it was pitch black. It was as if everything here was cursed. It was completely a black ocean.
After about an incense stick of time, Ye Feng entered the depths of the Black Wind Mountain. The surrounding area was completely black. If there really was a geocentric grass here, why didn’t Ye Feng even find a green one? This place was completely a place of death. Could it be that Qian Luotang deliberately lied to me?
However, Qian Luotang did not have any grievances or enmity with him. It was impossible for him to take a walk with false news, let alone induce him to come to Black Wind Mountain. Therefore, Ye Feng still believed that the Geocentric Grass was in Black Wind Mountain, but he could not find it.
“Squeak!”
A mud monkey quickly ran past Ye Feng. It was extremely fast and disappeared with a whoosh.
Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Feng chased after him. How could this kind of muddy monkey survive here? What kind of food did it rely on? Ye Feng was very puzzled. If it came in from outside, why didn’t Ye Feng discover it? Therefore, there was only one possibility. This kind of muddy monkey had always lived here.
After a few jumps, Ye Feng’s body entered the edge of a cliff. He discovered that the mud monkey jumped down the cliff and actually jumped down. Ye Feng tightly retracted his steps and stopped at the edge of the cliff. Looking at the dense black gas emanating from below, Ye Feng did not dare to act rashly.
The dense black gas blocked Ye Feng’s line of sight. He was completely unable to see the situation below the cliff. Only by going down could he know. Just now, the mudmonkey jumped down without any hesitation. Could it be that there was a platform below?
Even if there was a platform below, Ye Feng did not dare to take risks easily. Once he slipped and fell into the depths of the cliff, his body would really be shattered.
If he left just like that, Ye Feng would definitely not be willing to accept it. Since this monkey could go down, there must be something strange here.
After leaving this place, Ye Feng left Black Wind Mountain and found many vines. He turned back again and woven the vines into ropes. He trapped one end of the vine on a huge rock and tied the other end to his waist. Ye Feng slowly moved towards the bottom of the cliff.
Ye Feng’s body was close to the cliff. He carefully walked down. He dived for about ten meters. Ye Feng’s body entered a black mist. The scene above completely disappeared and was obscured by a layer of black mist.
Fortunately, the black mist was not poisonous. It only blocked his line of sight and slowed down a bit. It was about a dozen meters below the ground. Ye Feng’s feet seemed to be stepping on the ground.
There was no longer any restriction on his vision. Ye Feng discovered that a tall platform appeared beneath him, as if it had pierced through the cliff. It just so happened to protrude from a huge rock. On the other end of the platform, there was actually a pitch black cave that was bottomless.
The bottom of the cliff was still bottomless. The entire cliff was surrounded by green plants, and even some mudmonkeys were jumping up and down. Ye Feng had never imagined that there would be such a scene under the black mist.
After untying the vine on his waist, Ye Feng analyzed the terrain. The bottom of the cliff was bottomless, so he would definitely not be able to enter. There was only a pitch black hole in front of Ye Feng.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Feng still entered the black hole and discovered that it was very spacious. It seemed to extend underground, winding and winding.
The seemingly pitch-black entrance of the cave did not hinder the light inside. Ye Feng could tell the direction, and this place was no longer cold. The temperature was suitable, and there was also an underground hot spring slowly flowing through a ditch.
After walking for nearly half an hour, Ye Feng’s line of sight suddenly widened. He actually entered the bottom of the cliff. This place was covered in green, and there were even a large number of spirit fruits growing there. Hundreds of mudmonkeys were playing here.
Ye Feng finally understood why the people of Qian Luo Hall said that there was a geocentric herb in Black Wind Mountain. It was probably the naughty monkey here who picked out the geocentric herb and took it out. In the end, it was discovered by others. However, no one seemed to have entered this place at the bottom of the cliff.
Seeing someone enter, these mudmonkeys let out creaking sounds. Soon, they jumped onto the cliff. Holding vines in their hands, they all looked at Ye Feng in horror. These mudmonkeys did not have much offensive power, they were just herbivores.
Ye Feng picked up a Spirit Fruit casually and smelled it. The fragrance assaulted his nose and consumed it, causing his True Qi to rapidly increase.
The 500-year-old Golden Fruit contained pure Spiritual Qi. It could increase one’s cultivation by more than ten years, but it was swallowed by Ye Feng like this.
There were still a lot of spirit fruits like this. There were probably hundreds of them. Some of them had already matured. They fell to the ground and turned into spiritual energy. They continued to nourish the soil and prepare for the next cycle of reincarnation.
Ye Feng did not hesitate to start searching. He put a large amount of spirit fruits into his storage ring. As for the hundred-year-old spirit fruits, Ye Feng did not pick them. Even if he picked them, he would not be able to exchange them for many spirit stones. It was better to stay here and come back when he needed them in the future.
After spending a cup of tea time, Ye Feng harvested more than a hundred spirit fruits. His face was very excited. With these spirit fruits, his cultivation speed would increase a lot in the future.
A few spiritual herbs in the distance emitted faint starlight, like a star in the pitch-black night. Ye Feng appeared at the edge of the spiritual herbs with a whoosh.
“Geocentric Grass, I’ve finally found you!” Ye Feng looked at the more than ten stalks of Geocentric Grass with excitement on his face. He hurriedly gathered them and carefully put them into his storage ring.
When the surrounding monkeys saw that Ye Feng had plucked all the spirit fruits here, they let out screams. It seemed that they were extremely angry. If there were no spirit fruits, what would they live on in the future? If they swallowed one spirit fruit, they wouldn’t even need to eat it for a long time.
“Roar!”
A furious roar suddenly interrupted Ye Feng. On a distant cliff, a golden muddy monkey appeared. Its body was several times larger than these muddy monkeys, and it was roughly the same as a human. It was holding a rod in its hand. The furious roar just now came from its mouth.
“Monkey King!”
Ye Feng was shocked. There was actually a Monkey King here. Behind the Monkey King was another cave. It was estimated that it was the Monkey King’s habitat.
With a leap, the Monkey King landed and stood opposite Ye Feng. He grinned and let out a low roar. Just now, Ye Feng’s actions had already violated their territory.
Ye Feng did not dare to be careless. He always felt that this Monkey King was not simple. Ordinary mud monkeys could not have such a strong physique. Moreover, this Monkey King seemed to have intelligence, so Ye Feng could not bear to hurt it.
“Hu!”
The monkey king rushed forward and swung the rod in his hand, fiercely smashing down towards Ye Feng.
“Impudent! Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Ye Feng was enraged and threw a punch back at the club. He intended to punish it.
“Bang!”
A shadow quickly retreated, causing the space to tremble violently, causing even the air to explode.
“This” Ye Feng’s face was filled with shock. He could not believe that he would be pushed back by a monkey.
Just now, Ye Feng had roughly used the strength of three flying dragons to prepare to defeat them in one fell swoop. He discovered that he had made a mistake. The strength of this muddy monkey was simply beyond his imagination. There were probably eight flying dragons that were more than enough. Was this still the strength of a muddy monkey?
“Roar!”
The Monkey King discovered that it did not shatter Ye Feng with a single rod. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, as if he did not understand. Although he had activated his intelligence, he was still similar to a child.
The air rumbled. This time, the strength of the rod was even greater, exceeding the strength of the eight flying dragons.
“Holy shit, it can’t be!”
Ye Feng did not dare to be careless. He used the Confusion Steps and planned to fight. He did not understand at all. This mudmonkey was only at the ninth level of the Houtian realm, and its strength was actually even stronger than his.
