Chapter 53

The Kunlun Mountains stretch across the north and south for 180,000 kilometers. The cliffs and high peaks stand between the heaven and the earth. It is extremely dangerous. There are countless monsters, poisonous swamps, and dark black holes. Throughout history, no one has been able to go through from the north to the south and come out alive. Even those super - strong people don't dare to move forward rashly. Where there is danger, there are treasures. Monster crystal nuclei, rare flowers and herbs, and the supreme treasures buried in the mysterious caves all attract countless adventurers. Zhou Peng is probably the only one who comes here purely for upgrading. As soon as they stepped into the hinterland of the mountains, the atmosphere changed immediately. The dangerous (breath) came over them. Zhou Peng was very careful and slowly activated his (qigong). Black Rock beside him smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous. It's not so easy to encounter high - level monsters. This is not the real hinterland yet. The real hinterland is really dangerous." Zhou Peng smiled bitterly and thought in his heart, "Even in the game, the land reclamation is not like this. Looking at the terrifying and gloomy environment around, people can't help being afraid. Damn it, there's nothing to be afraid of." Then he took a big step forward and slightly felt the (breath) around him. He relaxed himself. After they walked in for half a quarter of an hour, the atmosphere became more and more wrong. Zhou Peng frowned and became careful. "Hiss, hiss, hiss..." A green python spat out a snake tongue as thick as an arm. Its two pale - yellow eyes narrowed. A red light flashed. It opened its bloody mouth and suddenly shot at Zhou Peng. Two fangs on its forehead were dripping with thick black venom, extremely ferocious. "I saw you long ago." Zhou Peng shouted in his heart. When the green python bit at him, he suddenly jumped up and punched the seven - inch part of the snake's body. With a "clang" sound, the green python shook slightly. Its tail swept, trying to coil around Zhou Peng. If it was caught by it, all the bones in the body would be crushed instantly. Damn it, who said that hitting a snake at its seven - inch part would work? He increased his speed and suddenly retreated. He cursed the person who said this in his heart. The whole body of the green python was as hard as steel. Zhou Peng's strike just now didn't even scratch its skin. It wasn't hurt at all. But in Zhou Peng's eyes, the blood slot of the green python decreased a little bit, which could be ignored. The fourth - level monster, the green python, blood value: 10,000, experience: 1,200, (qigong) value: 360, survival value: 3 After hitting the green python, the system immediately showed its attributes. Looking at the more than 1,000 points of experience, Zhou Peng was very puzzled. The third - level monster only had a little more than 100 points of experience. The fourth - level monster was so high. This was forcing him. After Zhou Peng dodged a strike, the green python coiled on the ground, forming a big lump, like a huge tree stump. Its eyes stared at Zhou Peng, and from time to time, it paid attention to Black Rock, who was standing still in the distance. "It's right to hit a snake at its seven - inch part, but you need internal force, otherwise you can't even hurt its skin." Black Rock stood aside. He was shocked by Zhou Peng's strike just now. The timing was very accurate, but the force was not used correctly. As soon as the words fell, Black Rock suddenly moved. He raised a finger, and the (qigong) on the fingertip burst out. His body flickered. The next second, he appeared on the top of the green python's head. He inserted a finger hard into the seven - inch part of its body, hooked his finger, and pulled hard. A bloody bone was pulled out. A series of actions were clean and neat, simple but with a strong domineering spirit. Although the Tempered Gang Realm was powerful, it was not so easy to deal with the fourth - level monsters. Looking at Black Rock killing the fourth - level monster with strong fighting and defense abilities with one move, he was shocked. He silently remembered the way he made the move and the use of (qigong) just now. The use of (qigong) could only be mastered after countless battles. Black Rock had been in the Kunlun Mountains for many years and had full combat experience. He didn't need to spend much effort to deal with ordinary fourth - level monsters. After killing a dead - level monster, Zhou Peng got more than 500 points of experience, more than 100 points of (qigong) value, and one point of survival value, which was much higher than that of the third - level monster. The system mode was the team mode, so he could also get experience from the monsters hunted by Black Rock. But because the level difference between the two was a little big, Zhou Peng could only get a small amount of experience, but he was already very satisfied. The blood of the green python gushed out, and the smell of blood slowly spread. In less than half a minute, Zhou Peng felt that three fourth - level monsters were approaching. So he looked at Black Rock and said, "Three monsters are coming. Their strength is at the fourth level." Black Rock was shocked secretly. He didn't even notice it, but Zhou Peng sensed it. It was too strange. He didn't think much about it at the moment. He immediately jumped onto the treetop and looked into the distance. He thought in his heart, "Sure enough, there are monsters approaching. The distance is nearly one kilometer. How did he feel it?" Without thinking much, Black Rock quickly jumped down and rushed to one side. Zhou Peng followed closely behind. One on the left and one on the right, about ten feet apart. They continuously jumped over and rushed out about half a kilometer in a few breaths. And the monster appeared in front of them, breathing heavily. The (breath) from its nose had a strong smell of sulfur. Its body seemed to be burnt, emitting a burnt smell. Two long fangs were like two sharp knives. Its four limbs were black. Muscles were all over its body, full of power. Once it erupted, it could reach several thousand kilograms of power. At this time, its front feet were constantly pawing at the soil, locking on Black Rock, and it launched a charge instantly. When charging, its speed was extremely fast. Zhou Peng only felt a heat wave flash by, and then it appeared in front of Black Rock. Its two long fangs arched up. Black Rock quickly bounced away and jumped onto a big tree nearby. He said loudly, "The red - flame wild boar has a strong attack and a very thick defense. It has the charging cultivation method. Its body is full of magma, extremely hot. If you want to kill it, you can only use one move." "Kill it with one move, otherwise if it entangles you, it will drag you to death." Black Rock explained the attributes and characteristics of the monster and some tips on how to kill it. The red - flame wild boar crazily hit the big tree under Black Rock's feet. After three consecutive hits, the big tree made a cracking sound. With one more hit, the tree would be broken. At this time, Black Rock condensed two war hammers on his hands. The war hammers were condensed with (qigong), but they were much harder than ordinary war hammers. The veins on his two arms bulged. He swung the two hammers down with all his might. "Roar~~" The red - flame wild boar howled. Its head was smashed to pieces. The hot magma in its body flowed all over the ground. Zhou Peng was shocked again. Condensing (qigong) into a weapon, the power was too strong. After Black Rock solved the red - flame wild boar, he didn't stop. He ran to the other side. Zhou Peng rushed out again. He suddenly realized that Black Rock was giving him a detailed introduction to the monsters he encountered, explaining very carefully. Zhou Peng vaguely felt that Black Rock might be leaving. Just after entering the Kunlun Mountains, he taught him how to hunt monsters, how to deal with them, how to find the weaknesses of monsters, how to use (qigong), etc., just like a careful teacher. Putting aside what he was thinking, since Black Rock patiently explained, he must listen carefully. Later, when Black Rock was not here, he would be alone. They killed monsters all the way. Unconsciously, they had entered more than ten kilometers into the hinterland. Along the way, Zhou Peng had been promoted to the fifth rank of the Agile Realm, and his (qigong) value had also increased a lot. It could be said that they had a full harvest. Looking at the sky, Black Rock hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's stop here today. We need to find a safe place to hide. At night, monsters are the most active. Try not to come out." After speaking, he jumped a few more times and walked to a cliff. Looking at the cave on the mountainside, he said, "We will stay there tonight." Immediately, he activated his (qigong) and rose into the air. Suddenly, a series of screams rang out. A huge roc bird swooped down fiercely. Black Rock was annoyed and said, "Looking for death." Suddenly, there was more flame on his legs. His body slightly tilted and he kicked the flying roc hard. The flying roc was like a kite with a broken string. It fell on the cliff and its head was broken and blood spurted out. Keep yourself in a fighting state at all times. There is no absolute safety in the Kunlun Mountains. Danger may appear at any time. Black Rock had taught him a lot in one day. Zhou Peng remembered them one by one in his heart. After a day, Zhou Peng was more sure that Black Rock was leaving.
