Chapter 368 – Mysterious Black Mist
Chapter 368 – Mysterious Black Mist
Just as Zhuge Yun was checking out the gongfu, Kong Huan and Fu Yunshan similarly received the jade slip.
This kind of life-saving recluse technique, although it did not look very decent, but the two coincidentally chose to cultivate it.
As long as practicing the blood recluse technique did not harm heaven and earth, what was wrong with it.
Two days later, Xu Chuniang was fully recovered from her injuries, and actually unprecedentedly did not go to the Battle Hall to challenge her again.
Fu Yunshan thought it was strange, “Sister Xu is slacking off today?”
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, after two rounds of sparring, she already had an understanding of her own limits, and the rewards had been received.
The purpose had been achieved, and there didn’t seem to be much need to challenge another round.
More importantly, those three in the Hall of Battle were no good, and she was afraid that if they fought further, they would have to use some power far beyond Foundation Establishment again.
Her talisman treasure could still be utilized twice, but she was unwilling to expend it here.
She told the reason, Fu Yun Shan nodded in understanding, so she had fought enough.
Unexpectedly, she thought that the “peaceful” senior sister suddenly changed her tone, “I’m going to Gale Valley.”
“Gale Valley? Why are you going there?”
Fu Yun Shan had an uneasy premonition.
Sure enough, Senior Sister Xu didn’t disappoint her, her eyes lit up with wariness, “I heard that there are many demonic beasts living there all year round, and I want to go and practice.”
Fu Yunshan kindly reminded, “I heard that the demonic beasts there in Gale Valley are very fierce, and their habits are not quite the same as those in the outside world. And the black mist in the valley is weird and unpredictable, capable of devouring divine sense.”
Xu Chuniang nodded, she had heard these from others.
These demonic beasts in the False Realm were of unknown origin, which was why their abilities were not quite the same as those in the outside world.
That black mist, on the other hand, was even more mysterious, and no one knew how it was born.
Perhaps the truth, only the owner of this pseudo realm Thousand Eyes Beast knows.
“You’re going alone, or should I join you?”
Fu Yunsan suddenly had a thought in her mind, she thought that she had to adapt to the cruelty of the cultivation world as soon as possible.
Xu Chuniang sniffed and glanced at her without asking why, “Okay.”
Split Wind Valley was an open-air valley outside of the city to the west, the valley was perennially filled with black mist and infested with demonic beasts.
Cultivators in the False Realm lived comfortably, and few people came here to seek pain.
So the two of them all the way out of the city into the Rift Wind Valley, did not run into other people.
Near the Rift Wind Valley, there were the hissing and fighting sounds of demonic beasts coming from it, hidden through the layers of black mist.
Xu Chuniang carefully separated a trace of divine sense fell to the black fog, the black fog touched the divine sense, seems to get interested in things like, stirring non-stop.
She slightly frowned, decisively cut off the connection between that trace of divine sense and her own body, her expression solemn.
“Senior sister, this black mist is indeed capable of devouring divine sense, extremely bizarre.”
Her divine sense had been calcined and condensed by the Meteoric Heart Flame, and had long been very strong.
However, as soon as her divine sense came into contact with the black fog, she actually felt a long-lost stinging sensation.
Fu Yun Shan nodded cautiously, not being able to use her divine sense meant that the chances of encountering danger in this Split Wind Valley would be much higher.
Xu Chuniang put away all her divine sense and stretched out a hand to place it in the black mist.
Those black mists were quiet in turn, and it seemed that it was indeed as the others had said, as long as one did not utilize one’s divine sense, one would not be targeted by these black mists.
Xu Chuniang’s expression became much more serious, not being able to use her divine sense meant that she was unable to utilize many means.
The Imperial Sword Technique could not be used, nor could she use her divine sense to manipulate spiritual weapons.
Fu Yunshan looked at the black mist and had a sudden thought, “Can we collect this black mist?” She did as she said and took out a bottle and began to collect the black mist.
These black mists could devour divine sense, and instead had no sense for spiritual qi, so it was easy to be collected.
However, the black mist was simply too thick, Fu Yun Shan was able to absorb the surrounding black mist with great difficulty, and within a dozen breaths, it was quickly replenished.
She had no choice but to give up on this useless effort, and was about to throw the bottle of black mist away with her hand, when she realized that Xu Chuniang had been staring at her.
Fu Yunshan was a little embarrassed, she knew that her senior sister was surprised by her unseen appearance.
She was about to say something, but then she heard senior sister Xu exclaim, “Senior sister, you are really powerful.”
Fu Yunsan’s hand shook and the bottle rolled to the ground, and she said without a trace of anger, “Senior Sister Xu, what do you mean?”
Xu Chuniang bent down and picked up the rolling bottle, gently uncovering it.
Because of the boundary at the mouth of the bottle, these black mists stayed peacefully inside the bottle.
As soon as she tore the boundary, the black mist inside didn’t even move.
Xu Chuniang slightly raised her eyebrows and released a tiny trace of her divine sense, and saw these black mists scrambling out of the bottle as if they had smelled the fishy odor.
She quickly withdrew her divine sense, and those black mists seemed to have lost their target and stayed in place peacefully.
Fu Yunsan at first did not understand why Senior Sister Xu wanted to pick up the small bottle, but when she saw this, she understood.
This black mist can devour divine sense, if thrown out by surprise during battle, it can teach people to suffer great losses!
“If it wasn’t for Senior Sister’s sudden desire to collect the black mist, I would have almost missed the treasure!”
Xu Chuniang laughed as she resealed the boundary on the bottle with aura, returned the bottle to Fu Yunshan, and turned to take out a large number of bottles and began to collect the black mist.
Fu Yunsan looked at the bottle in her hand, her mood was complicated for a moment, then she threw all her emotions to the back of her mind, and without saying a word, she also started to get busy.
Xu Chuniang sighed as she collected, her own lights were dark, thinking only of the inability to release her divine sense in the black mist, not thinking of utilizing the black mist.
Sure enough, this trip, bringing along Senior Sister Fu, was really the right thing to do.
The two of them were busy until they had used up all the utensils they were carrying, and only then did they finish up and walk towards the valley.
Xu Chuniang walked in front to open the way, “Senior sister, you’d better follow me closely, don’t get lost.”
It was impossible to use divine sense in the valley, so it would be troublesome if they got lost.
Fu Yunsan nodded her head and looked around with a tense look on her face, without divine sense, she could only rely on her eyesight to recognize her surroundings.
Xu Chuniang suddenly heard the sound of wind coming from her left, and couldn’t help but concentrate, “There seems to be movement over there.”
As soon as the words fell, she saw that in the darkness, a strange-looking demonic beast came out, pouncing fiercely towards where the two of them were.
Xu Chuniang gripped her fire opposing spear tightly and greeted it, framing a pair of horns of the demonic beast, “Be careful, senior sister, it’s best to hide behind me.”
She glanced back uneasily, only to see that Fu Yunsan had already dutifully taken cover, and even she almost didn’t notice.
So she withdrew her gaze and focused on dealing with the demonic beast in front of her.
This demonic beast had a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, and because of its thick skin, it took Xu Chuniang a lot of work to solve it.
Fu Yunsan saw the danger lifted before revealing her form again.
The two of them fought and hid, and if there were too many beasts, they would run, but they also worked well together.
After a short stroll around the periphery of Rift Wind Valley, Xu Chuniang didn’t dare to go deeper and led her senior sister back.
Fu Yunsan only in the demonic beasts more times, occasionally out of a few hands, most of the time in the dodge escape.
Even so, she still looked very energized.
