Shen Luo led Tian Tiesheng down the gentle slope. Soon, a tall stone forest appeared in front of them.
"This place is very hidden. Junior Brother Shen, why don't we hide in this stone forest for a while?" Tian Tiesheng suddenly said.
Shen Luo looked around. This place was surrounded by mountains and the light was dim. It was indeed a good place to hide.
The demons who attacked the Temple of Spring and Autumn with such fanfare would not dare to stay for too long. Hiding here might be a good idea.
"Okay … Eh …" He nodded. Suddenly, his eyes moved and looked toward the stone forest. He stopped talking.
"Junior Brother Shen, what's wrong?" Tian Tiesheng saw Shen Luo stop and asked.
"Nothing. Let's go." Shen Luo continued to walk forward.
The two entered the stone forest and walked forward for a while. Next to a big rock in front of them, a black-faced middle-aged man holding a sword flashed out. It was Senior Brother Niu, who was guarding the mountain gate.
"It's you! How did you find this place? "Senior Brother Niu saw the two and his eyes flashed with surprise. Then, he asked cautiously.
"Senior Brother Niu!" Tian Tiesheng was surprised to see his fellow disciples.
Shen Luo heard that there were people hiding here. Naturally, he did not show any surprise.
Footsteps were heard from the stone forest. Two more people walked out. One of them was Ding Yuan. The other was a young man with a pointy mouth and monkey-like cheeks. Shen Luo did not know him.
"We found this place first. You two, get out of here!" Ding Yuan shouted.
Senior Brother Niu and the pointy-mouthed young man also showed a fierce look and held their weapons.
"The three of you, this stone forest is very big. It is more than enough to hide ten people. We are all from the same sect. Now that we are in trouble together, we should work together to overcome this difficulty." Tian Tiesheng frowned.
"Bah, one more person here means one more risk of being exposed. Get out of here!" Senior Brother Niu glanced at Shen Luo and spat. He waved the long sword in his hand.
"If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for being rude!" The pointy-mouthed young man said coldly.
Tian Tiesheng, with his good temper, was treated in such a manner. His face darkened, and he was about to make a move.
The disciples of the same sect were about to fight.
"Senior Brother Tian, forget it. Since they don't welcome us, let's go to the front." Shen Luo glanced behind him and suddenly spoke. Then, he quickly walked to the front.
Although Tian Tiesheng was still angry, he still listened to Shen Luo's suggestion and followed.
The two of them walked very quickly, and their figures soon disappeared in front of them.
"Hmph, at least you know what's good for you." Senior Brother Niu smiled proudly. He put away his long sword and was about to hide back in the stone forest.
At this moment, a series of roars came from behind. It was the three zombie wolves that had rushed down from the gentle slope and were dashing towards the stone forest.
"Monster! Damn it, it must be those two trash who lured them here! "Senior Brother Niu's face changed color as he cursed loudly.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Niu, what should we do?" Ding Yuan and the other man asked in a panic when they saw the three zombie wolves.
"What do you mean by 'what should we do'? Hurry up and run. We just need to run faster than them!" Senior Brother Niu snorted coldly. Then, he started to run in the direction of Shen Luo.
Ding Yuan and the sharp-mouthed man didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly followed him.
At this time, Shen Luo and Tian Tiesheng had already left the stone forest. They walked along the gentle slope for some distance. Suddenly, the slope in front of them became steep, and they couldn't walk anymore.
Shen Luo didn't care about it. He turned a small left corner, and arrived in front of an upward mountain wall.
This mountain wall was quite steep, but there were many protruding stones on it. There were also many trees growing on it. So, climbing wasn't a problem.
"We can reach the mountain path that goes down the mountain from here. Let's go down to the mountain gate. Maybe there's a way out there," Shen Luo said.
"Haha, fortunately, Junior Apprentice Brother Shen is familiar with the path. We've found the right person." Tian Tiesheng laughed. Then, the two of them started to climb up.
Halfway up, Tian Tiesheng heard some movement behind him. He looked back and saw Senior Brother Niu and the other two men running towards him in a panic. The three zombie wolves were chasing after them.
Senior Brother Niu and the other two men didn't see Tian Tiesheng and Shen Luo. Moreover, they didn't seem to be familiar with the path here. They panicked when they saw that there was no way forward. The three zombie wolves were about to catch up with them.
"You three, here!" Tian Tiesheng was a warm-hearted person. Although Senior Brother Niu had treated him like this before, he still couldn't bear to see the three men die in the mouth of the wolves. So, he shouted loudly.
Shen Luo sighed slightly, but didn't stop them.
Senior Brother Niu and the other two men heard the sound. They hurriedly ran towards the mountain wall where Shen Luo and Ding Yuan were, and tried their best to climb up.
"Ah!"
A mournful and blood-curdling scream was heard. It turned out that the young man with the protruding mouth and monkey-like cheeks was the weakest among them, and his climbing speed was the slowest. The biggest zombie wolf caught up with him, and leaped forty to fifty feet high. It bit the young man's calf, and pulled him down from the mountain wall.
The other two zombie wolves pounced on him, and tore him into pieces in the blink of an eye.
Senior Brother Niu and Ding Yuan saw this scene. Their bodies trembled, and they hurriedly used all their strength to climb up.
The three zombie wolves weren't good at climbing steep slopes. They howled at the four men from afar for a while. Then, they turned around and rushed in the direction they came from.
The four men heaved a sigh of relief and climbed with all their strength. Soon, they reached the top platform. In front of them was a winding mountain path. It was the mountain path that led down the Spring and Autumn Temple.
This section of the mountain path was quite remote. There were no signs of human habitation. So, there were no demonic ghosts attacking at the moment.
Senior Brother Niu and Ding Yuan were a little embarrassed when facing Shen Luo and Tian Tiesheng. However, both of them were very proud. Although they felt uncomfortable, they didn't apologize.
Shen Luo didn't pay attention to the two men. He looked up, and then went down the mountain gate with Tian Tiesheng.
"Senior Brother Niu, then we …" Ding Yuan asked in a low voice.
Senior Brother Niu looked up. There were fewer shouts, but the howls of demonic ghosts were still dense. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. His legs trembled.
"Let's go. We'll go to the mountain gate with them," he said in a deep voice.
Ding Yuan seemed to have no idea what to do. He hurriedly followed Senior Brother Niu down the mountain.
Shen Luo and Tian Tiesheng soon arrived at the mountain gate. They were at the edge of the huge grey light shield that enveloped the entire mountain gate. The grey gas on the light shield was tumbling, and a cold Yin Qi was emitting. It made people feel cold in their bones even from a distance.
Tian Tiesheng didn't care so much. He shouted and flew up. The steel saber in his hand turned into a black shadow, and fiercely hacked at the grey light shield.
The grey light shield flashed slightly, and then returned to its original state. The grey gas on the light shield counterattacked and wrapped around the steel saber. With a cracking sound, a layer of grey ice crystals condensed on the saber's body. Then, the ice crystals spread along the steel saber toward Tian Tiesheng's arm.
Tian Tiesheng's complexion changed. He hurriedly withdrew the steel saber. However, the steel saber seemed to be frozen on the light shield. He couldn't pull it back.
He shouted in a low voice. His arm suddenly became thicker. He pulled it back with all his strength. More than half of the saber's body was frozen by the ice crystals.
Shen Luo saw this scene, and his complexion turned ugly. This grey light shield was more powerful than he had expected.
