If it was a simple survival, it would be effortless for the cultivators.
They didn't have to be like Bear Grylls and Bear De, who had to sleep in the open and struggle to start a fire.
Without a house to shelter them from the wind and rain, they could carve out their own cave residence.
Without warm and bright lights, they could start a raging fire with a snap of their fingers.
Without food and water, so be it. For those who cultivated in seclusion for months or even years, they didn't need food.
However, survival in the Five Apricot Mountain was different. There were ferocious beasts and strange fog in the Five Apricot Mountain.
There were dangers everywhere. If they weren't careful, they might lose their lives.
No one dared to lower their guard in this place. The Seven Heroes of August didn't. Zhuo Bufan and the rest didn't. Even those who had cultivated to the second stage didn't dare to do so.
…
"Alright, let's leave it to fate. You be careful too!"
After entering the mountain, Zhuo Bufan received a telepathic message from Chu Ten of September. Chu Ten had followed her team deep into the Five Apricot Mountain.
"Old Zhuo, is that the girl from the Nine Moons Tower? Why? Can't wait to find a dual cultivation partner? "
Broken Star River heard the telepathic conversation between Zhuo Bufan and Chu Ten and couldn't help but laugh.
"Cut the crap. There are plum trees all around. It's hard to identify the direction. Make sure to leave a mark."
Zhuo Bufan and Broken Star River still had twelve paths. Along the way, they realized that they were surrounded by plum trees. It was easy to get lost in such a place.
"Sigh, Old Zhuo, I'm not going anymore. Why don't you listen to my suggestion? Just dig a hole and bury it for ten days. You can pass the test without taking any risks."
Duan Xinghe had always thought that his method was the best.
"I don't like to sit around and wait for death. If the fog could invade the ground, your method would be digging your own grave."
"That's what if."
"I don't like what if either. Let's go. Let's go higher."
After Zhuo Bufan finished speaking, he led Broken Star River and the rest to continue climbing higher.
Clouds fly to the sky, and fog descends!
In order to avoid the strange fog of the Five Plum Mountain, it was better to go as high as possible.
…
Five Plum Mountain Bay, August Ship!
Mo Qiu and Su Hong accompanied the Autumn Hall Master and were drinking the last cup of autumn tea before winter.
"It's windy!"
"It's foggy!"
Mo Qiu and Su Hong spoke at the same time. One spoke of wind, the other spoke of fog!
In the Five Plum Mountain not far away, flowers were flying all over the sky, and a thick white mist was rolling out from the depths of the Five Plum Mountain.
It was like a fountain, gushing out and spreading in all directions.
…
"Old Zhuo, look quickly. There's a cave there."
Zhuo Bufan and the other two had already lost their way in the plum forest of the Five Plum Mountains.
At this time, Broken Star River suddenly saw a cave. The three of them headed towards the cave.
However, just as the three of them were about to reach the entrance of the cave, white smoke suddenly floated out of the cave.
The smoke was strange. It floated out of the cave as if it had a life of its own. It crawled on the ground toward Zhuo Bufan and the other two.
"Oh no, it's the fog of the Five Plum Mountain."
Twelve shouted, "Let's run!"
The fog of the Five Plum Mountain was terrifying. Those who were trapped in the fog would have severe hallucinations.
Moreover, the more powerful the Divine Soul was, the greater the impact of the hallucinations. Therefore, even many powerful figures did not dare to enter the fog rashly.
Zhuo Bufan and Broken Star River were not arrogant enough to overestimate themselves.
After seeing the fog, the three of them quickly retreated as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
"Wait a minute, there seems to be someone in the fog." Zhuo Bufan suddenly frowned.
After hearing that, Broken Star River and Twelve took a closer look. They saw that there were indeed three to five black figures in the gray fog.
"Could it be other Sun Shengs?"
The three of them retreated while paying attention to the situation in the fog.
The few figures deep in the fog seemed to be approaching Zhuo Bufan and the others with difficulty.
An inexplicable sense of tension arose spontaneously in the air.
"Do you want to help?" Broken Star River looked at Zhuo Bufan beside him.
Zhuo Bufan, on the other hand, focused his attention on the mist. He wanted to see who the figure in the mist was.
When he was fully focused and looked at the figures in the fog, the figures became clearer and clearer in his eyes …
"Oh no, run! That's not a human!"
All of a sudden, Zhuo Bufan felt his scalp tingle as he roared.
"Not a human?"
Before Broken Star River and Twelve could react, they saw white bones suddenly protruding from the fog.
A running skeleton pounced towards them.
"Damn it, what is this thing?"
Broken Star River almost didn't think and turned around to run.
In terms of running away, Twelve was of course the fastest. Who asked him to have the Wind Spirit Constitution? That youth who was like the wind disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Broken Star River's cultivation base was the highest. When he spread his legs, his speed was comparable to that of a treasure hunter.
The pitiful one was Zhuo Bufan. Not only did he have the lowest cultivation base, he also didn't have Twelve's wind-like constitution.
He, who was last, could only hear the "Kachi Kachi" sound behind him. The number of skeletons in the fog increased and they ran faster and faster. Like a magnificent army, they rushed toward Zhuo Bufan.
"Damn it, Shifting Stars Shadows, Shifting Stars Shadows, Shifting Stars Shadows …"
Zhuo Bufan used Shifting Stars Shadows and constantly flashed and jumped in the plum forest. Every time the skeleton army was about to pounce on Zhuo Bufan, he disappeared in an instant.
"No, running is not a solution!"
After Zhuo Bufan used Shifting Stars Shadows a few times, he suddenly stopped. Then, he grasped the air with his right hand and the cracked Thousand Evil Sword appeared in his hand.
"Burning Blood Divine Art, burn for me!"
Zhuo Bufan shouted and the meridians in his body started to circulate to the maximum. Looking at the overwhelming skeleton army surging toward him, Luo Bufan's blood started to boil.
Layers of red light ignited on Zhuo Bufan's body. His entire body was boiling. It was truly burning.
This was the Burning Blood Divine Art that he had obtained from Ouyang Ao. By burning his blood, he could increase the strength of his body in all aspects.
"Come on, Total Annihilation!"
Zhuo Bufan gripped the Thousand Evil Sword in his hand tightly. The Thousand Evil Sword started to devour the life energy in his body.
Although Zhuo Bufan could continuously create life energy in his body, the Thousand Evil Sword's devouring speed was obviously faster than its creation speed.
When the Thousand Evil Sword finished devouring all of the life energy in Zhuo Bufan's body, the sword started to emit waves of heat. The cracked body of the sword started to be enveloped by a red light.
"Whoosh!"
Zhuo Bufan raised the Thousand Evil Sword and slashed it horizontally. In an instant, a huge sword Qi that was three feet wide slashed toward the skeleton army that was running wildly in the fog.
This was the most powerful move that Zhuo Bufan could use at the moment.
The huge sword Qi was so powerful that it spread out in all directions. With one slash, the plum forest in front of him was instantly cut in half.
This power was indeed enough to wipe out a thousand soldiers.
However, just as Zhuo Bufan thought that this slash would be able to wipe out all the skeletons in the fog …
He realized that his Total Annihilation slash did not cause any damage to the skeletons.
"Is this … an illusion?"
Looking at the overlapping skeletons that were fighting to be the first to pounce on him, he thought, "That's right.
Zhuo Bufan came to a realization and closed his eyes. He allowed the fog and skeletons to rush toward him.
In an instant, Zhuo Bufan felt a refreshing chill pass through his body. When he opened his eyes again, he thought that he was already on the other side of the fog.
Seeing the rolling fog dissipate, Zhuo Bufan could not help but sigh in relief.
"What a terrifying illusion. It felt like it was real."
