Chapter 72: Encountering an Old Friend by Chance
Two small figures quickly shuttled through the valley. Except for those slightly larger herds, which need to be bypassed. Along the way, it is almost unimpeded.
"This liquid medicine is really useful!"
Chuxue opened her eyes wide, looking at the spirit beasts trying to dodge with some disbelief.
They all looked terrified, as if the two of them were the real beasts to be feared.
What is even more surprising is Zong Shou's familiarity with this place. Along the way, it is a familiar road with almost no stagnation.
This valley is empty, just look for the direction and go straight forward. However, Zong Shou's grasp of the characteristics and temperament of various beasts in this place is obviously not comparable to ordinary people.
Chuxue was puzzled in her heart, and finally couldn't help asking: "Young master, have you been to this Blood Valley before?"
Zong Shou didn't answer, but only smiled mysteriously. One of the most famous intermediate novice areas in the God Emperor game, he has naturally been here. Moreover, he has fought countless times with the fierce beasts here. It was also here that he started his martial arts path.
However, this liquid medicine does not come from the game, but an invention in reality.
Every year, some hunters, or those who like to study spirit beasts, apply these medicines and enter the Valley of Blood.
And the library where Zong Shou worked in his previous life happened to have the formula of this medicine.
In this valley of blood, there are of course the lingering spirits of ancient alien races and powerhouses, so that the powerhouses at the innate level can often only stop outside the valley of blood. However, the reason why these spirit beasts have such a change and become bloodthirsty and violent has nothing to do with it, but the influence of another thing. And all the spirit beasts that have been infected are extremely sensitive and disgusted by the smell of this medicinal juice on his body.
Seeing that Zong Shou ignored her, Chuxue couldn't help pouting angrily, and followed behind sullenly. But his eyes were even more wary, fearing that some kind of beast would suddenly attack and hurt Zong Shou.
Although the concoction was good, it evaporated very quickly. Every two hours, it is necessary to rub it again, all over the body.
Zong Shou didn't think anything of it, instead he feasted his eyes, turning his head to look at it from time to time, but Chu Xue's pretty face flushed every time.
Blood Valley is only about twenty miles wide, but it is narrow and long. It took the two of them half a day to walk about a hundred miles, and they saw monsters of third-order spirit beasts appearing in front of them. Zong Shou's figure also stopped suddenly.
The higher the level of the beast, the more intelligent it is. Even if he is infected by the breath of that thing, he can barely maintain his true self. Naturally, the medicine juice on the two of them has even less effect.
Naturally, these third-tier beasts are far from reaching this level. What really worries him are those beasts that have reached the fifth level and can be compared to the innate powerhouses of the human race.
Chuxue also knew that this place was dangerous, so she put her fingers on the center of her eyebrows, and then her eyes burst into divine light.
"Escort!"
One after another, the light smoke immediately condensed in front of the two of them. The body is about ten feet long, and a wave of cold air radiates in all directions. The minions are sharp, and the tiger's eyes are shining fiercely.
It was the cold underworld tiger that was seized at the beginning, and Zong Shou helped to tame it the day before leaving the city. Although it was only a third-order soul beast, the remaining power of the fifth-order monster in front of him was still there. It makes the nearby spirit beasts more fearful.
I don't know if it's because of their relationship with tiger blood, but there seems to be an inexplicable connection between a human and a beast. Not only did Chuxue's aura increase, but the power of the Han Minghu also reached the fourth level.
"The blood of this Hanminghu and Chuxue really complement each other. It's a pity that Xue'er's strength is still too low. If the soul power can enter the state of leaving the body, and then use the power of the talisman, it is enough to strengthen this Hanminghu to the fourth level. -"
After only one glance, Zong Shou looked away. Start to choose the route carefully and continue to go deep.
The main thing is to identify the smell and observe the distribution of those beasts. Wherever high-level monsters are distributed, the surrounding spirit beasts will avoid them far away, it is extremely open and easy to recognize.
This is also the experience he learned in his previous life.
However, after walking for a few miles, they heard voices ahead. Zong Shou looked from a distance, and saw a group of figures standing in front of them, fighting against those spirit beasts.
There are only seven or eight people, but all of them have extraordinary strength.
Two of them were using talismans, and they turned out to be spiritual masters in the cultivation realm. Even though he was facing a herd of second-tier fang wolves over forty, he was still able to deal with Yu Ru.
Zong Shou raised his eyebrows, feeling strange in his heart. Although Blood Valley is dangerous, it is not really deserted. There are some beasts and medicinal herbs in it, which are unique to this place. However, few people would choose to enter this place during this season.
Shaking his head secretly, Zong Shou didn't bother to pay attention. Stimulating the Fengxing spirit bones on his body, he prepared to take a detour.
But it was just the two of them passing by. But there was a call from the other side: "Is there Junior Brother Zongshou?"
Under the interference of the roar of the beast and the sound of fierce fighting, the sound was barely audible. But the sound quality, Zong Shou's body, is extremely familiar and extremely sensitive. The body shape is involuntary and immediately freezes.
Surprised, he turned his head and looked over, only to see a woman looking at her from a distance. With a bright smile, he waved his hand in surprise.
Zong Shou frowned, and then all the memories about this woman floated in his mind.
The next moment, I felt even more headache. Remember this woman, her name is Gong Xinran. It's one of his senior sisters in Linhai Academy, and there's nothing unusual about it. Not only is her life experience ordinary, her appearance is also just ordinary. But for that 'Zong Shou' who has dissipated, it is unforgettable.
She was the only woman who treated him consistently and took good care of him during the first year in Linhai. It can even be said to be that 'Zongshou', one of the spiritual pillars in Linhai Academy.
It is also because of this woman that she temporarily left the academy to complete her studies. It was only then that 'Zong Shou' who had just been hit by a broken relationship was completely despaired, and he was decadent for two full years.
Speaking of which, the guy who has disappeared is really playful. In just one year at Linhai Academy, he fell in love with two girls in succession.
Deliberately ignore it, and still leave from the side. But it seems that roots have taken root under his feet, and he can no longer move half a step away.
Just as Zong Shou was struggling for a while, the group of martial artists in front had already killed most of the fang wolves. But Gong Xinran simply left the team, using talisman to control a gust of wind, and galloped over.
After confirming that it was Zong Shou, his expression couldn't help being even more surprised: "It's really you? Why did Junior Brother come to this Blood Valley?"
Suddenly, he seemed to remember that Zong Shou couldn't practice martial arts, and the sea of souls hadn't been opened yet. Gong Xinran looked Zong Shou up and down again, and Liu Mei frowned immediately. It wasn't until he saw Chuxue on the side and the Hanminghu, a soul beast that was close to the fourth rank, that his expression relaxed slightly. But he still frowned and said: "How dangerous is this Blood Valley? As the son of Qiantian Mountain, you have a noble status. Why take the risk to come here?"
Zong Shou smiled wryly, not knowing what happened these days. I just ran into my fiancée yesterday, and today I happened to meet the person I had a crush on before 'my'.
In his previous life and this life, he had seen countless beauties. But this Gong Xinran's appearance, which can only be regarded as handsome, made his heart throbbing endlessly. His throat was so dry that he could barely speak.
I suddenly thought of this woman, how gentle and kind she was in Linhai Academy. Suddenly, he was very excited by the concern in Gong Xinran's words just now, and was in a state of confusion for a while.
