More than 50 black mountains stood side by side, giving off a strong sense of oppression. Seeing them was like re-entering the Immortal Mountain.
"Big brother, is there also enlightenment tea here?" Little Nan Nan raised her head and asked. The little fellow still remembered the naked old tea tree.
"No, but there is something more mysterious." Ye Fan stroked the little fellow's head.
"What's strange inside?" Li Heishui asked the big black dog. Normally, no one dared to approach this place. It had always been like avoiding ghosts and demons.
"It's hard to say what's here. Anyway, it's a bit strange. After entering, there might be strange deaths," the big black dog mumbled.
"What do you mean?" Li Heishui asked.
"Specifically, after entering, you won't even know how you died. It's very strange and mysterious. It's hard to understand," the big black dog added.
"In that case, it's also a bad place. You don't even know what you're going to encounter?" Ye Fan was surprised. This place was very unusual. He didn't know what they would encounter.
However, they were not too afraid. After all, they were following a saint. If even the crazy old man could not enter this place, then no one in this world could.
"Awoo …" A long howl of a lone wolf was heard. The sound was mournful and sorrowful, echoing in this black mountain range.
"Your relatives appear here." Li Heishui poked the big black dog.
"Woof!" The big black dog bared his teeth and bit his wrist, refusing to let go.
"F * ck, I'm just telling the truth. Why are you so excited? Let go!" Li Heishui screamed.
"Caw …"
A few old crows filled with an aura of death flapped their wings on a withered old tree outside the black cliff, letting out horrifying cries that were full of sorrow.
"Why do I feel that this place is so ominous …" After Li Heishui shook off the Black Emperor's big mouth, he felt a chill on his neck.
"Don't worry. I don't believe that this black cliff can really be haunted. Although the Saint Physique Saint died here, it has been more than 100,000 years, after all. Even if there are some mysterious existences here, they have already disappeared under the power of time. Nothing can live for so long," the large black dog said with some guilt. The only thing he believed in was the battle prowess of the crazy old man.
"Let's go!" Ye Fan picked up Little Nan Nan, placed her on the back of the Black Emperor, and then walked forward with large strides.
Plop!
A white rabbit scurried out, followed by a weasel. It was so old that it couldn't be any older. The fur on its body had almost all fallen off.
Hiss hiss!
Then, a bony snake that was as thick as a water tank slowly crawled out and wriggled towards the cliff in the distance.
"How could it be such an ominous creature …"
The few of them felt very strange. These creatures were naturally nothing to them, but in the folklore, they were very particular.
When they approached the black Saint Cliff, the strange aura became even stronger. It was as if they had arrived at a graveyard, making them feel cold all over.
"Wuu …" Suddenly, a loud cry rang out. It was very sorrowful, and the sound traveled more than ten miles.
Beside them, there was a withered old tree, growing at the edge of the Saint Cliff. It was so big that even five or six people couldn't wrap their arms around it.
On the tree, there was a frightening bird nest. It was actually built from withered bones. It was about half the height of a person, and it was very gloomy and surrounded by wisps of black fog.
"Damn, what kind of bird is this?" Li Heishui was shocked, feeling that the cold on his body had become even stronger.
Next to the bird nest built from human bones stood a strange, demonic bird. It had a pitch-black body like a crow, and it had a human face. However, it also had a bird's beak, and its black hook was like a knife.
Its body was more than a meter long, and it was as black as ink. The gloomy aura on its body was extremely heavy, as if it had a dead person's head. The whole withered ancient tree was a bit cold.
"This place is really f * cking strange!" The big black dog's body trembled, and he couldn't help but curse. He said, "This is an ancient bird, almost never seen even in the ancient times. It specializes in eating the bones of powerful warriors. According to legend, those who have been cried by it don't live long."
"Flap, flap, flap!"
The strange bird spread its wings and flew away. From its beak, a half-eaten human skull fell down, looking a bit ferocious.
"Why do I feel like this is a bad start? It's a bad omen," Li Heishui muttered.
"Whoosh!"
A fierce wind blew, and the crazy old man suddenly attacked. His sleeves swept through the heaven and earth, and countless plants and rocks were swept away. A low roar came from afar, making people's souls tremble.
Ye Fan and Li Heishui were shocked. A humanoid creature covered in long black fur that caused people to feel apprehensive flashed into the depths of the Sacred Cliff and disappeared without a trace.
"Damn, there really is something. What kind of creature is that?" The big black dog was shocked.
In the surroundings, all the ominous sceneries disappeared. The voices of the old crow, Gu Lang, and the others also disappeared, and this black mountain recovered its calm.
"Let's go in and have a look. In a while, it will all depend on your attainment in formation patterns," Ye Fan said.
The group finally stepped into the Undying Mountain. Ye Fan took out the ancient scroll he had obtained in the northern region's Lizhou, and looked for the location marked with the Nine Secrets.
"It's the deepest part of the Saint Cliff …"
They gathered together and observed carefully, and then frowned at the same time. In the instant they stepped into the Saint Cliff, they felt like they had entered the Undying Mountain, and there was no difference.
"We can't fly anymore!" Li Heishui was the first to discover the abnormality. They couldn't leave the ground at all, and couldn't leap into the void.
"There are ancient emperor formation patterns here, and they weren't carved by the Void Emperor. They were laid out by someone else …" A strange light flickered in the big black dog's eyes.
"We have to be careful. Even the Crimson Dragon Daoist was trapped in the deepest part for 1,500 years, and was almost refined into ashes," Ye Fan reminded.
"Don't worry, this time, I have absolute confidence. With my attainment in dao patterns, we can enter this unstoppable place!" For some reason, the big black dog's confidence suddenly multiplied, and he said, "Follow me."
"Crack!"
The big black dog took the lead, but he had only taken two steps when a bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the clear sky, striking him until he foamed at the mouth. He staggered and fell to the ground, black smoke rising from his body.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ye Fan felt that he was unreliable at the crucial moment and carried Little Nan Nan back in advance, the little guy would have also been struck by lightning.
"Doggy, are you okay?" Little Nan Nan blinked her large eyes, and asked, "Emperor … Why did you strike me as well?"
"It hurts so much …" The big black dog lay there, his four large paws twitching continuously, and he murmured, "Emperor … Why did you strike me as well?"
"I just realized that no matter what you do, you damned dog. You said you could enter the unstoppable place, but look what happened in the end. You kept acting, and now you're struck by lightning, right?" Li Heishui mocked.
"Woof, motherf * cker!" The big black dog wanted to bite him, but he couldn't stand up after struggling for a long time. He was severely injured, and many of his bones were broken.
This made their hearts tremble. The mysterious and terrifying Saint Cliff was even more powerful than they had imagined. They had just entered, and the Black Emperor, who had an extremely high attainment in dao patterns, was almost struck to death.
"Swoosh!"
The crazy old man pointed with his finger, and the big black dog was enveloped by a ball of light. Instantly, his bones creaked, and his injuries healed quickly.
He rolled to his feet, and cursed, "Motherf * cker, why did you strike me as well? What's wrong with this formation pattern? Let me study it carefully."
The big black dog studied it carefully, and a doubtful expression appeared on his face. Then, he relaxed and said, "So there's a slight change. I know what went wrong. This time, there's definitely no problem."
He walked forward again. At first, there was no problem, but when he took the thirteenth step, another thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky.
"Crack!"
This time, the big black dog was in an even worse state. His whole body was charred black, and white smoke was coming out of his ears and eyes. His mouth was also coughing out bursts of sparks. His whole body was almost cooked.
"Awoo … It hurts so much, motherf * cker, woof!" The big black dog kept howling, and every inch of his flesh was convulsing.
"Damn, this damned dog is going to play himself to death. Luckily, it's not us this time." Ye Fan was dumbfounded. He had seen unreliable people, but he had never seen one as unreliable as this one.
"Doggy, are you okay? I smell roasted meat …" Little Nan Nan asked with concern.
"It smells so good!" Li Heishui was a weirdo. At this critical moment, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
The big black dog was instantly flustered and exasperated. He shouted, "Motherf * cker, what's with your eyes? What do you mean? Woof! "
When two weirdos were together, it was hard to have peace. They would always quarrel endlessly, no matter what the situation was.
This time, with the help of Crazy 'Ole's treatment, the big black dog stumbled to stand up. However, his satin-like fur seemed to have been plucked, full of bumps and hollows, and no longer smooth.
"There's no justice in this world! Why is it striking me as well? I've really been unlucky for eight lifetimes!" The large black dog was extremely furious.
"Do you know who laid this formation pattern …" Li Heishui looked at him suspiciously.
"This is the Wu Shi formation pattern. I clearly saw how it evolved in an ancient book. How can it still be struck …" The big black dog ground his teeth.
"Nonsense. How can the formation pattern of the great ancient emperor be recorded in an ancient book? It can't exist in the world at all. Besides, even if it's left, even if a great cultivator studied it for ten lifetimes, he wouldn't understand it at all." Li Heishui didn't believe it.
But Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat. He thought of something the big black had said. In the past, Great Emperor Wu Shi had come here to pay his respects.
If so, it was most likely that the formation pattern was carved by Great Emperor Wu Shi. But this damn dog knew too much. Could it be that he had followed Great Emperor Wu Shi? But how could he live until now? Even the great ancient emperor couldn't!
During this process, Crazy 'Ole didn't say anything. He stood on the side, staring at the ancient land, as if he was thinking about something seriously.
The big black dog didn't dare to walk in front himself. He urged Li Heishui to go forward, and he would point the way.
"Motherf * cker, you ridiculous dog, you don't even dare to walk, and you want to kill me!" Li Heishui wouldn't agree no matter what.
In the end, the big black dog braced himself, grabbed the jar of divine spring that Ye Fan gave him, and walked in front.
"Boom," "Crack …"
Almost every dozen steps, the big black dog would let out a shrill cry. He was constantly struck by lightning, and it was unknown how many times he had cramped.
"Great emperor, you were often struck by lightning back then. Could it be that your resentment is so great? Why are the formation patterns at the outermost layer so terrifying? They almost turned me into ashes!" The big black dog bared his teeth, and kept nagging.
Finally, after crossing a black mountain, they came to a land of nothingness. There were no formation patterns in this area, but the aura was very mysterious.
This was a very open valley, located between the black mountains. There was a lake in the middle, which was as smooth as a mirror.
At this time, the sunset had dyed the horizon red, and even the lake was dyed with a layer of golden luster.
"Peerless spirit medicine, more than 20,000 years old!" Li Heishui pointed at an azure plant in the lake, flowing with dreamy luster.
The big black dog also ran over. They were about to pick it, but at this moment, the lake water rumbled loudly, and waves soared into the sky.
This was a humanoid creature, its hair as white as snow, and its skin was also deathly pale, without a trace of blood like snow. It was practically like a zombie, and it reached out a large claw to grab them.
"What is this thing?" The few of them were all shocked, and quickly retreated.
"This is an ancient corpse, and it has been dead for at least tens of thousands of years. In recent years, it has gained intelligence, and it has the cultivation level of a half-step almighty!" the big black dog shouted.
"Uncle, save us." Little Nan Nan was very nervous, and she grabbed the old crazy man's sleeve and shook it.
If Ye Fan and the others came in alone, they would definitely be in danger. With their cultivation level, they would not be able to resist at all.
"Chi!"
The old crazy man pointed lightly, and a green light shot out from the tip of his finger. This ancient corpse was instantly fixed in place, and could not move at all.
"Boom!"
However, at this moment, the lake water became violent, and the sound of iron chains swaying could be heard. There was still a terrifying creature below.
Divine light shot out from the eyes of the few of them, and they instantly sucked in a breath of cold air. Three more ancient corpses rushed up from below, and they were also comparable to half-step almighty cultivators.
Moreover, in the depths of the lake, there was a huge shadow. It was actually an iron carriage, and the poles of the carriage were all tied with iron chains. It was very eerie and frightening.
"These four ancient corpses are only the bearers of the carriage. What kind of existence is in that iron carriage?" The few of them were shocked, and their scalps became a little cold.
"Chi!"
The old crazy man still raised his hand and pointed, and the three ancient corpses were fixed in place. Then, he stared at the depths of the lake, and shouted softly, "Duo!"
His voice was like thunder, and there was an indescribable mighty force, like a god subduing a demon. The boiling lake water immediately calmed down, and the black iron carriage swayed a few times, as if it was very unwilling, but in the end, it stopped shaking.
Ye Fan and the others were scared, and felt that this trip would not be too smooth. They had just entered, and they already encountered such a tyrannical creature. They did not know what was in there.
"Hehehe …" A gloomy and cold laugh came from the black mountain in front of them, and they could vaguely see a humanoid creature flashing and disappearing.
Two beams of light shot out from the old crazy man's empty eyes, piercing through the black mountain ridge. The humanoid creature let out a malicious laugh, and disappeared completely.
They climbed up a large mountain, and their hearts jumped. There was actually a collapsed black mountain in front of them. Seeing this scene, the big black dog was even more shocked.
"What's going on? Who destroyed that mountain? I remember … that's not right. Legend has it that Great Emperor Wu Shi once carved a 'seal' character there, suppressing a terrifying creature. Did it escape?"
"Don't worry, it's already been more than a hundred thousand years. Even if there was an extraordinary existence, it has already turned to ashes. No matter how great a person is, they can't resist the power of time," Ye Fan said.
"That's true, but I think we should be more careful. I don't feel safe." The big black dog showed a rare expression of nervousness.
