C407 The Disciples of the Lonely Rock Peak
Once the Spirit Connecting Vine appeared, it submerged itself into the lush forest and grass, and started to absorb the essence and vitality of the plants.
When the grass and trees withered away, Chen Yu used his movement technique to move quickly, controlling the Spirit Connecting Vine to change its position and continue to absorb other plants' vitality.
Chen Yu was very cautious about the marks the Spirit Connecting Vine would leave behind. After all, if Elder Yi fell in the Tianmu Mountains, he would inevitably be scouted by the Dragon Head Peak of the higher ups of the Dragon Head Peak. Chen Yu wasn't sure if the was already familiar with the Spirit Connecting Vine's ability to absorb plant essence.
If he left too obvious a mark, Chen Yu would be easily suspected.
When the light that the Spirit Connecting Vine brought had become somewhat dazzling and its agglomerated body had become a bit larger, Chen Yu recalled the Spirit Connecting Vine and allowed it to return to his body, allowing it to release its life force to treat his injuries.
With the effects of the Life Destruction Pill and the recovery of his injuries through the Spirit Connecting Vine, Chen Yu felt that the effect was very obvious. The mottled wounds on his body started to itch, and then, in a short period of time, they started to scab, and then the scab fell off again, revealing his smooth and tight skin.
Even the half of Chen Yu's face that was destroyed by the Golden Centipede Spiritual Soul began to grow new flesh.
The powerful healing effect of Spirit Connecting Vine could be said to be heaven-defying. Coupled with Chen Yu's already powerful physique and the effect of the Life Creation Pill, Chen Yu's dying injury was completely healed in such a short time. He didn't even feel like his internal injury was left behind!
The only flaw was that even though Chen Yu's body was brimming with vitality, it would still take some time for his cultivation to recover to its peak.
However, with Star Soul, Spirit Connecting Vine and ice fish Spiritual Soul, Chen Yu had a lot more trump cards to keep his life.
On the other hand, Chen Yu could feel that the black Broken Sword's power had weakened a little. It was probably because it had been weakened a little bit by Elder Yi's telepathic thoughts when it was fighting with Elder Yi.
Chen Yu was in no hurry to cultivate. He turned around and rushed into the valley with Elder Yi's Profound Artifact Long Sword in his hand.
Time was of the essence, what Chen Yu needed to do the most when his injuries were recovered was to kill Zhong Xuanlin, Zhang Chong and the other Dragon Head Peak disciples, and take back his Storage Bag s to hide his tracks. Otherwise, if someone from the Dragon Head Peak arrived, the secrets he hid would be exposed, and the consequences would be dire.
Before long, Chen Yu had returned near the cave. He was watching from his hiding spot, and he saw that Zhao Cangsheng's body was still lying on the ground. There were no traces of anyone having come here.
Chen Yu couldn't help but frown!
From the time Zhang Chong had escaped to now, more than an hour had already passed. This amount of time was enough for Zhang Chong to find Zhong Xuanlin and the other Dragon Head Peak disciples, and for everyone here to return, it meant that Zhong Xuanlin and the other remaining four Dragon Head Peak disciples were all terrified, and didn't even dare to return to take another look!
If this was the case, Zhong Xuanlin and the others might directly escape back to the Ruling Spirit Sect using the Spiritual Crane s.
Chen Yu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he could only continue to wait.
After waiting for a whole two hours and not seeing anyone appear, Chen Yu could not help but bitterly smile.
He had to admit that sometimes, it wasn't a good thing to show off too much of his strength. Just like now, Chen Yu was sure that Zhang Chong would not come back here.
As for whether or not Zhang Chong had already reunited with Zhong Xuanlin and the other Dragon Head Peak disciples, Chen Yu said that it was not good.
After attaching the long sword to his back, Chen Yu bent his body and rushed towards the place where the Spiritual Crane had landed.
whoosh *
Just as they were about to reach the valley, Chen Yu looked up, only to see a black shadow quickly approaching, accompanied by the sharp cry of a Spiritual Crane.
"Could it be the Spiritual Crane from the Dragon Head Peak?" Chen Yu was surprised, but was happy instead.
However, very quickly, Chen Yu recognized that this was not the Flying Cloud Spiritual Crane from Dragon Head Peak. Although the flying cloud Spiritual Crane looked similar, the strength of this type of Spiritual Beast was not weak, and each of its auras had a difference.
Furthermore, as the Flying Cloud Spiritual Crane got closer, Chen Yu could clearly see that there were at least ten warriors on the back of this Flying Cloud Spiritual Crane.
There were already less than ten Dragon Head Peak disciples, so it was obvious that the one on the back of this Flying Cloud Spiritual Crane was not a Dragon Head Peak disciple.
Since they were not Dragon Head Peak disciples, then naturally, those who came were disciples from other peaks of the Ruling Spirit Sect.
There were a lot of spirit beasts and spirit birds in the Tianmu Mountains, so it was not strange for there to be a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple coming.
However, for Chen Yu, there would be a group of outsiders who would be even more difficult to find and kill Zhong Xuanlin and the other Dragon Head Peak disciples!
As Chen Yu thought about it, the Spiritual Crane began to land on the flat ground in the valley. The warriors on its back also jumped down one by one.
There were a total of thirteen people, and all of them were dressed in inner sect disciple robes. Because of the distance, Chen Yu could not tell which mountain range they belonged to.
Among these thirteen people, the most eye-catching was a skinny, ordinary-looking middle-aged man. The man emitted a deep, biting cold aura, and he was the last to jump off the crane's back.
Chen Yu estimated that the strength of this petite man was much stronger than Zhong Xuanlin, and estimated that he was at the middle stage of Spirit Accumulation Stage.
After the Ruling Spirit Sect disciples landed, one of them blew a bamboo whistle, causing the Spiritual Crane to flutter and fly off into the distance.
This meant that he had released the flying Spiritual Crane and was moving around nearby.
Since he was unable to determine which peak these disciples belonged to, Chen Yu naturally did not have any intention of getting to know them. But as his gaze fell on her, the petite man suddenly turned his head to look at her. His eyes were bright and sharp like a falcon's.
Chen Yu was slightly surprised as he didn't expect the man to be so sharp. He then retracted his gaze.
The place where Chen Yu was standing was hidden. Once Chen Yu withdrew his gaze, a hint of suspicion flashed across the man's face. He slowly retracted his gaze and left with the others, heading towards the depths of the Heaven's Curtain Mountain Range.
Chen Yu's evaluation of the man went up another level. After the Ruling Spirit Sect disciples left, he stood up and walked towards a rather steep cliff at the side of the valley.
An hour later, Chen Yu had climbed up the steep mountain on the side of the valley and was looking towards the west.
The mountain peak was vast and endless. It was lush and verdant, and from time to time, the roars of powerful Demonic Beast could be heard.
The group that had just left was nowhere to be found.
The Heaven's Curtain Mountain Range was too big, it was filled with towering peaks and boundless mountains. Even if Zhong Xuanlin, Zhang Chong and the rest did not take the Spiritual Crane to escape, it would still be difficult for Chen Yu to find them in the mountains, even if Chen Yu had rich experience in hunting and killing in the forest!
If they could not kill Zhong Xuanlin, Zhang Chong, and the rest, Chen Yu would face quite a bit of trouble. Forget about other things, just the existence of the heaven defying Spiritual Soul was enough to attract the attention of many Ruling Spirit Sect experts.
"Phew", Chen Yu let out a long breath and jumped down from the mountain. He returned to the flat ground in the valley and followed the direction where that skinny warrior and his group left to.
At this point, Chen Yu could only go to Fire Ape Valley to try his luck, because Chen Yu clearly remembered that Elder Yi mentioned this place before he brought him to the cave.
However, Chen Yu knew nothing about the Tianmu Mountains, and it was not easy to find the Fire Ape Valley.
As he left the valley and headed west, he saw many forks in the road. Chen Yu didn't know which one he should take, so he could only choose the mountain road with fresh traces left behind.
As he ran, four hours later, the sky darkened. Chen Yu continued to walk forward using the Bloodfire Eye Technique, and after a while, he saw a bonfire vaguely lit up in front of him.
Chen Yu hesitated for a few minutes before he walked towards the bonfire.
There was still a hundred meters between them and the bonfire, but there were already people standing around the bonfire.
"Who's there?" Someone shouted in a low voice.
"Fellow seniors, please. I am Polar Extreme Peak's Zhou Hong. Greetings, seniors!" Chen Yu watched the bonfire and made sure that the group of Ruling Spirit Sect disciples that had arrived at the mountain range today were surrounding the bonfire. He slowed down a bit, opened his mouth and slowly walked towards the bonfire.
Chen Yu didn't have any other choice. He wanted to hurry to Fire Ape Valley, so he had to get the information he needed from these Ruling Spirit Sect disciples. At the very least, he had to know the direction of Fire Ape Valley. Therefore, after Chen Yu met this group of people again, he chose to take the risk!
It was a risk because Chen Yu wasn't sure if anyone in this group could recognize him. If there was someone who recognized him and knew where he came from, this would undoubtedly be a little troublesome.
"Polar Extreme Peak disciple? "Hahaha!" Beside the bonfire, a slender man looked up at Chen Yu in the dark night, and laughed with obvious disdain: "Since when did Polar Extreme Peak disciples dare to come to Tianmu Mountain?"
Chen Yu was silent for a moment and then said, "May I ask which faction you are from?"
"We are the disciples of Gu Yan Feng!" A warrior said proudly.
Gu Yanfeng? Chen Yu thought back to the information he got from Gu Yanfeng after hearing this.
There were thirty-six peaks in Ruling Spirit Sect and Gu Yanfeng was ranked eleventh. His strength could not be considered strong, but it was far from being comparable to his current Polar Extreme Peak.
"Master and disciple Zhou Hong?" Are you alone? " At this moment, a deep voice sounded.
The moment this voice sounded, everyone stopped talking and looked towards the direction of the voice. They saw a skinny figure sitting beside the bonfire, staring at Chen Yu through the dim light of the bonfire and the night.
It was the skinny martial artist that was leading this group of people!
Chen Yu had already arrived at a place not more than ten meters away from the bonfire. He let the light of the bonfire shine on his face, causing his heart to tremble slightly, but his expression remained worried as he said, "No, I was brought here by my martial uncle. He told me to wait for him at the farthest corner of the valley, and he will return within five days.
"Your Uncle-Master? Which one is Polar Extreme Peak? " The thin martial artist asked with a calm voice.
"It's Uncle-Master!" Chen Yu said.
"Name?" The thin martial artist asked in an indifferent tone.
"I don't know about that!" Chen Yu purposely stared blankly for a moment before he said with a little confusion, "I, as a junior, only know how to call him as a single martial uncle!"
Laughter came from the side of the bonfire, some of it was mocking.
