Chapter 878 Aren’t You Afraid I’ll Cheat You?
Doctor Liu said slowly: "It is far away from our Dongxia Kingdom. If you want to go to the southwest, you must first go to Beiqi Kingdom, passing through Xiqin Kingdom, Dongwu Kingdom, Beiyan Kingdom and Nanliang Kingdom."
"Besides, I advise you not to go to the southwest."
"Why?"
"The growing environment of the Seven-Aperture Linglong Grass is harsh and full of dangers. The slightest mistake can result in the loss of one's life." Doctor Liu reminded.
Hearing what Doctor Liu said, Jiang Chen's eyes flickered.
He did not reply to Doctor Liu immediately, but fell into deep thought.
Doctor Liu waited quietly without urging anyone.
After a long while, Jiang Chen said, "Thank you for telling me this."
"Aren't you afraid that I will deceive you?" Doctor Liu asked back.
"I believe you."
Jiang Chen smiled faintly, jumped towards the bottom of the cliff, and soon disappeared.
Doctor Liu looked at his back and sighed softly: "I hope you can escape from Ghost Mist Mountain smoothly."
Even he was unwilling to get involved in the dangers of Ghost Mist Mountain.
What's more, Jiang Chen's cultivation level is only at the foundation-building stage.
"Let's go."
Doctor Liu took the Black Hawk and flew out of Guiwu Mountain and returned to Dongxia Kingdom.
At this time, Jiang Chen was searching under the cliff.
"Does the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Grass grow in the cave below the cliff?"
After searching for a long time, Jiang Chen finally found a cave.
It was pitch black inside the cave, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
"Something is wrong, there are monsters here."
Jiang Chen keenly detected the breath of the monster.
He did not rush into the cave, but stood there, listening carefully to the movements inside.
“Woo woo woo~”
Not long after, bursts of crying were heard from the cave.
Jiang Chen's face changed slightly, and he seemed to hear a woman crying.
Swoosh——
Just as he was about to go in to investigate, suddenly, a silver light shot out at an extremely fast speed, threatening Jiang Chen's life.
Bang.
Jiang Chen took a few steps back to avoid being attacked.
“Hehehe.”
A low voice came from the darkness: "Good boy, you actually dodged my move."
Jiang Chen ignored the voice in the darkness and fixed his eyes on a tree trunk.
The tree trunk was thick, with two bloody snakes hanging on it, the bright red color was particularly eye-catching.
The sneak attack just now was launched by the snake.
Jiang Chen looked around but did not see the snake that attacked him.
"Don't waste your energy, kid."
The sound from inside the tree trunk came again.
"Who are you?" Jiang Chen asked. If it was an ordinary poisonous snake, it would not be possible to have such intelligence.
"Hehe, now that you're here, be prepared to die."
In the darkness, a sharp sound came from the tree trunk, making people's scalps tingle.
“Swoosh.”
Just as he finished speaking, several cold rays of light broke through the air, like sharp arrows streaking through the void.
Jiang Chen retreated violently, avoiding all the sharp arrows.
Whoosh~
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen's body flew into the air.
Under his feet was the body of a huge python.
This python was coiled under the cliff, its body covered with black scales and with a single horn on its head.
It opened its eyes, its scarlet pupils revealing coldness and cruelty, its mouth slightly opened, revealing sharp fangs, as if it was ready to bite someone.
Jiang Chen looked around and found that there were many snakes everywhere.
"You want to eat me?"
Jiang Chen joked: "I think too highly of you."
After saying this, Jiang Chen took out the Scarlet Flame Sword and released a fierce murderous aura that enveloped the entire forest.
Roar, roar, roar!
All of a sudden, the snakes roared, as if they had encountered the most terrifying thing, and they all curled up their bodies.
“Huh.”
The giant python let out a surprised sound, and seemed to feel the power of the Scarlet Flame Sword, and its body trembled slightly.
Immediately, the giant python opened its mouth wide and rushed over.
"You beast, die!"
Jiang Chen was furious and swung the Red Flame Sword to slash forward.
Boom!
There was a violent collision and sparks flew.
Jiang Chen was knocked away by the giant python, smashing countless trees and falling to the ground.
He raised his head and saw the python staring at him, its scarlet eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
"Your strength is much weaker than that of the early stage of Jindan."
The python spoke in human language, "But your blood should taste delicious, right?"
After saying that, the python pounced and bit him.
"Evil beast."
Jiang Chen snorted coldly, drew his sword from its sheath, and performed sword-controlling techniques.
Swish.
The blade cut the python's neck.
The scarlet liquid spilled onto the ground, emitting a fishy and nauseating smell.
The python's body fell down, crushing several trees.
“So simple?”
Jiang Chen said in astonishment.
The strength of this python has reached the Jindan stage. According to the battle scene he imagined, it must be extremely fierce.
But I didn't expect it to be solved so easily.
"This python was probably promoted to the Golden Core stage not long ago, and its strength has not yet stabilized."
Jiang Chen guessed in his heart, otherwise, he would not have been able to kill the python so easily.
Once the python died, Jiang Chen continued searching inside.
Soon, Jiang Chen found a crystal clear green plant in the cave.
" Seven-aperture exquisite grass?"
Jiang Chen's eyes sparkled. This plant was the Seven-Aperture Linglong Grass.
He picked the Seven-Aperture Linglong Grass and put it into his storage ring.
"Is there anyone here?"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen noticed that there was someone alive at the other end of the cave.
"Don't panic."
Inside the cave, there was a man and a woman, the man looked like a scholar.
The woman's clothes were tattered, revealing her snow-white skin. She was beautiful and exuded a faint fragrance.
When the scholar saw Jiang Chen, shock flashed in his eyes, and then he fell silent.
The woman’s pretty face turned pale when she saw a stranger breaking in.
"I won't harm you." Jiang Chen said.
Hearing this, the scholar and the girl looked at each other.
"How do you prove it?" the scholar asked suspiciously.
"I have a sword, see if you can pick it up."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen threw out the Scarlet Flame Sword.
Seeing the flying Red Flame Sword, the scholar's pupils shrank, his expression became solemn, and he quickly reached out to catch the Red Flame Sword.
He felt that the Scarlet Flame Sword was like a huge mountain weighing ten thousand pounds, pressing down on him so hard that he couldn't breathe.
“This, this…”
The scholar swallowed with difficulty and looked at Jiang Chen in horror.
"Don't worry."
Jiang Chen waved his hand, signaling the scholar to relax a little, and said slowly: "What's your name?"
"Liu Qingfeng."
"Mr. Liu, is there no one else here besides you and her?"
Liu Qingfeng nodded.
"Which village are you from?"
Jiang Chen continued to ask.
Liu Qingfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "After I came here, I lost contact with the villagers."
Jiang Chen frowned, he knew that he was abducted by some unknown force.
At the very least, this is a trap.
"That senior should be nearby." Jiang Chen thought to himself.
"Follow me, I will take you away from here." Jiang Chen said to Liu Qingfeng.
Liu Qingfeng nodded and followed Jiang Chen.
The two of them walked to the bottom of the cliff.
There is no road here, and you can only climb up by relying on vines.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen mastered the sword-wielding technique, and with the cooperation of Liu Qingfeng, they successfully reached the top of the mountain.
"call."
Jiang Chen let out a long sigh and looked down, still feeling a lingering fear.
If it weren't for the help of the Red Flame Sword, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to escape.
