The Strange Red Mist

Four wooden pillars as thick as one person and a thatched roof constitute a simple residence. On the floor made of bluestone, there is only an ordinary straw mat, and a burning incense burner is placed beside the straw mat.

Under the effect of the incense, Zhuo Lian woke up faintly.

"Hmm...I...here is..."

After she checked her clothes in shock, she was somewhat relieved.

Zhuo Lian looked around, and found that not far from the house, there was a small tomb, but it was very neat. There was no monument in front of the tomb, but an unknown green flower was planted.

There was a man standing in front of the grave. She sensed it a little, but found that his aura was deeply restrained, his spiritual power was not leaked at all, and his realm was unknown.

"To be able to occupy an oasis alone in this deserted Gobi land, you must be an extraordinary expert." Zhuo Lian stepped forward slowly, and slowly bowed to the man: "Thank you, senior, for saving me."

The man didn't turn his head or answer, but just looked at the grave quietly, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with him.

Seeing that the other party was silent, Zhuo Lian couldn't ask other questions, so she had to say thank you again, and turned to leave this small oasis.

After a long time, the man looking at the tomb whispered to himself: "Zhenru, you don't blame me for bringing another woman here."

"Her eyebrows are so similar to you,"

"In the past, it was also in this desert that you and I met by chance,"

···

Zhuo Lian, who left the oasis, searched several times, and finally found a cave among the collapsed ruins.

"The dust in this cave is so deep, and there is a pungent decaying smell, I don't know what age it was left."

deep in the cave,

"Well, this severely decomposed skeleton is probably the owner of this cave."

"I don't know what happened, but I died in my own cave."

Zhuo Lian sighed slightly, opened a small hole on the ground with sword energy and put the dead bone in. When she was about to bury it, she found that there was a fingernail-sized fragment on the man's finger.

"This is... the appearance of this fragment is so familiar."

Zhuo Lian suddenly took out a white square brocade box from her storage bag. She compared the fragments in her hand with the contents of the box, and immediately confirmed what she thought.

"It's just why there is no picture of this fragment."

Putting the box away, Zhuo Lian slashed at the entrance with a sword, and the entrance was completely sealed by falling rocks. She worriedly cast a protective spell at the entrance, if someone really breaks in, it can also serve as a warning.

"Entering your cave and getting your fragments again, I think it was a chance for you and me. Although I don't know your name, but I restrained you for you this time, and I have settled this karma."

After burying the nameless skeleton, she flipped out a red bottle, poured out a pill and swallowed it, and immediately launched the foundation building chapter,

"In the beginning, chaos gave birth to Dao, and Dao distinguishes turbidity from yin and yang..."

"Yoyaoyaomingming, there is nothing to keep, there is nothing to keep,... the yang is clear and the yin is turbid, the yang is moving and the yin is quiet..."

"Going out of the mystery and into the female, if you are dead or alive... Taihe is overflowing, bones are scattered and cold..."

With the operation of the Absolute Beginning formula, the mana in her body gradually began to slowly recover.

"However, the spiritual power here is so thin that even if it runs for a week, the effect will be very little."

Zhuo Lian, who was sitting cross-legged, waved her hand to the ground in front of her. As soon as a large pile of low- and middle-level spirit stones appeared like a hill, she was shaken to pieces.

She opened her mouth slightly and sucked hard, and the spiritual power floating in the air was immediately sucked into her body.

···

On a boundless wilderness, the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce's team was engaged in a fierce battle, and they encountered a sudden wave of beasts here.

The attacking monsters were overwhelming, most of them avoided them directly, and rushed to the distance like desperately, only a small number of monsters directly collided with them.

This part of monsters is rather peculiar, with snake scale-like armor on the body, three heads, each with a single horn that looks like a barb, and a thick scent of smoke between the mouth and nose. Bai Yan, a pair of blue lightning flashes from time to time in his eyes.

"Be careful, everyone, these are the three songs of Lei Xiao!" Zhao Qingyi reminded loudly, and at the same time, he summoned up his mana, waved the folding fan in his hand, and suddenly a wide eye of the wind appeared in front of him.

Countless wind blades flew out of it continuously, flying out with a burst of 'swoosh' sound of piercing through the air, and crashed into the three thunder owls.

Although those three Lei Xiaos were all rough-skinned and thick-skinned, wearing scale armor, they couldn't bear the uninterrupted cutting of these wind blades, and suddenly there was a howl of beasts.

These three Lei Xiaos suffered from pain, but they became more ferocious. They roared, and from the horns on their heads, lightning snakes sprang towards everyone.

Zhang Ziliang was very surprised to see that these three Lei Xiaos were able to launch lightning attacks. Thunder is a variation of fire, and there are very few monsters that can naturally use the power of thunder.

"These three thunder owls seem to have no intelligence, and they are attacking with instinct." Zhang Ziliang wondered: These three thunder owls are only equivalent to the strength of the foundation-building stage, why didn't the monk in the alchemy stage directly deal with them.

He looked to the other side, only to see the alchemy cultivator sitting on the back of the rhinoceros, his eyes looking into the distance, his face full of seriousness.

Not long after, the alchemy cultivator's face was full of disbelief, he said 'run', and fled away in a wisp of smoke without grace!

Although this unexpected move made everyone a little puzzled, their faces were full of fear. For a monk who formed a core to escape, there is probably something terrible ahead.

Zhang Ziliang dodged, walked up to Zhao Qingyi and shouted, "Brother Zhao!".

"Hurry up, although the goods are important, the lives of fellow Taoists are even more important."

The group of them used their own means to transform into streaks of light, and when they soared into the sky and were about to go away, a huge beast roar suddenly came from a very far away place!

The roar shook the sky, and everyone in the air suddenly felt that their mana was restrained, and they fell to the ground like dumplings one by one.

When Zhang Ziliang recovered from the severe pain, he found a strange red mist sweeping in, and blood-red hair was floating in the red mist.

Any life that came into contact with the red mist was instantly decayed, and many accompanying monks didn't even have time to scream, and died unexpectedly!

Zhang Ziliang looked at Zhao Qingyi, and found that he also looked surprised, as if he didn't know what it was.

"What is this!" Zhao Qingyi sank into his dantian, but found that the mana in his dantian was like a pool of stagnant water, and there was no reaction at all.

The place where the red mist swept past was devoid of life, Zhang Ziliang broke out in cold sweat seeing this situation. In a critical situation, he restrained his energy and kept sensing the mana in his dantian.

At the critical moment when Hong Wu was about to die, a purple crystal in the dantian burst suddenly, Zhang Ziliang's whole body burst into lightning, and there were bursts of thunder in his body!

Then Zhang Ziliang pointed his right hand to the sky, and a shield formed by purple lightning protected him and Zhao Qingyi, and the moment the red mist touched the purple lightning, it was purified.

"Walk!"

Zhang Ziliang reached out and grabbed the shocked Zhao Qingyi, turned into a purple thunderbolt, soaring into the sky, and disappeared into the sky after a few breaths!

···

In the cave, Zhuo Lian's eyes were tightly closed, in front of her was a pile of tarnished spirit stone fragments, and there were several empty jade bottles in front of her.

"After several days of recuperation, my injuries and spiritual power have finally recovered."

"However, it is a little surprising that the mana in my body is much more than before, and it is more vigorous,"

"I have been in Nanling for several years, and I have been entangled and hunted down by the golden-eyed eagle before. Now I finally have time to find the old friend who appeared here, but I don't know which one of Qi and Li the woman is."

"I learned from a soul search before that the last place where the captured woman appeared seemed to be in a place called Demon Wolf Valley."

"As for the monk who escaped..."
