"Wait … …" Ning Cheng grabbed Gongsun Yan who was in front of him, as his figure turned into a shadow, and in just a twinkling of an eye disappeared from where he stood.
Gongsun Yan had not even reacted, when several heavy and fishy auras whistled past the place where they were standing a moment ago.
"Class 6 Monstrous Beasts … …" Gongsun Yan cried out in alarm, these few Monstrous Beasts that had passed by them a moment ago were definitely Class 6 Monstrous Beasts without a doubt.
Although Level Six Demonic Beasts would not take the initiative to attack their opponents in places with a lack of Spiritual Qi, once they blocked their opponents' path, they would definitely be killed by these Demonic Beasts without hesitation.
"That was close, I didn't even see it." Gongsun Yan said as she patted her chest.
Ning Cheng knew that in this place where the Spiritual Qi was scarce, there were very few monstrous beasts residing here, but it did not mean that these monstrous beasts would not pass through this place. His Spiritual Consciousness was much stronger than Gongsun Yan's, as such the speed of the Class 6 Monstrous Beast was incomparably fast. Fortunately, he had been paying attention to the surroundings, and was able to bring Gongsun Yan out of the way in time.
"I will be careful from behind, I was too impatient a moment ago." Gongsun Yan quickly spoke up, if she had been a bit more careful, then she really would have been able to avoid it in advance.
"No, you just have to be careful when we arrive at the Blood River Mountains, maybe the Blood River tide would have already risen, I will take you there, you just need to point the way." Ning Cheng said as he reached out his hand to grab Zongsun Yan, and once again returned to the original direction.
Gongsun Yan immediately understood the meaning of Ning Cheng's words, and hurriedly pointed to the road in front of them, while constantly explaining the direction.
The route was indeed somewhat strange and complicated, if not for Gongsun Yan leading the way, they might not have been able to find it.
Gongsun Yan was brought forward by Ning Cheng, and their speed really was a lot faster.
Initially, Gongsun Yan simply did not think of anything, but in her heart, Jia Lingwei was even more anxious than Ning Cheng. However, as Ning Cheng's speed got faster and faster, it also became easier and easier for her to give directions. Instead, she started to think of something else.
Ning Cheng's arm was pressing against her chest, which made her inexplicably recall the chest attack incident that Nalan Ruxue had mentioned. That Nalan Ruxue really was making a mountain out of a molehill. Even though Big Brother Ning was pressing down on it, it did not feel any pain or itch, it was just a little bloated. For Nalan Ruxue to use a borrowed knife to kill someone for such a trivial matter, to say that she was ungrateful was too light.
She had completely ignored the fact that she and Ning Cheng knew each other, and had long since acquiesced to this matter. Regarding Nalan Ruxue's matter, Yan Ji's words were already preconceived.
Ning Cheng really did not think about it at all, when he had first seen Gongsun Yan, Gongsun Yan still had some baby fat on her face, as such he subconsciously treated Gongsun Yan as a little girl. Even so, he still paid attention. The clothes covering Gongsun Yan's abdomen were all gone, when he held onto Gongsun Yan, he deliberately avoided touching her abdomen, and moved up a bit.
"Big Brother Ning, they say that you are a Devil Cultivator, but why do I feel that you are not a Devil Cultivator?" After walking for a while, Gongsun Yan suddenly asked.
Ning Cheng's tone was a bit depressed as he spoke, "I am not a Devil Cultivator, moreover my axe is refined from the True Cosmic Devil Metal, as such it has a Devilish Nature Aura to it."
"Ah … …" Gongsun Yan cried out in alarm, and quickly spoke up, "Big Brother Ning, the True Cosmic Devil Metal is a priceless treasure, you must not go out and casually speak about it aah, once some of the powerhouses come to know about it, they will definitely come to snatch it away."
Ning Cheng gave a self-deprecating smile, "It doesn't matter if I say it or not, I guess there are already people who know about it."
He had used his axe to kill so many people, moreover there were so many onlookers, there would definitely be people who would be able to guess that the magical weapon he used was refined from the True Cosmic Devil Metal.
"That's also … …" Gongsun Yan in her heart felt very unfair for Ning Cheng, but she could not find any good words to comfort Ning Cheng. She said that Ning Cheng should not have saved people, at that time she was also one of the people who had been saved.
For a time, the two people were silent.
"It's here." Although Gongsun Yan's mind was in a mess, but she did not forget her own task, when Ning Cheng arrived at a low stone hill, she quickly called out to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng put down Gongsun Yan and spoke, "You lead the way."
Gongsun Yan was very familiar with the seven or eight turns, and arrived in front of a smooth stone hill, after which she disappeared a few times.
"So it turned out to be a Natural Concealment Array Formation … …" Ning Cheng immediately recognised the place where Gongsun Yan disappeared, this Natural Array Formation was not very advanced, as such he was able to see it with just a glance.
"Big Brother Ning, you give me your hand, I'll pull you in, this place is an Array Formation, if you do not understand it then you will not be able to go in." Gongsun Yan seemed to have noticed that Ning Cheng did not keep up, and once again came out.
Ning Cheng waved his hand and spoke, "You go first, I know how to go in."
Such an Array Formation, how could he not go in?
Gongsun Yan on hearing that Ning Cheng did not need her to lead the way, gave an 'En' sound, and once again turned around to go in.
Ning Cheng followed behind Gongsun Yan, and soon entered the Concealment Array Formation, in front of them was a long gravel road, this gravel road was very long, and extended to a very far place.
"There are no more monstrous beasts in here, we can hurry up." Gongsun Yan spoke, as her speed increased.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Gongsun Yan once again turned out of the small road, and entered a narrow valley entrance. "Big Brother Ning, after this valley entrance is the Blood River Mountains."
This valley was very short, and Ning Cheng and Gongsun Yan were able to quickly pass through it, when Ning Cheng saw the scene in front of him, he finally understood what it meant to be called the Blood River Mountains.
The dense blood red mountain peaks stretched far into the distance, even his Spiritual Consciousness was not able to sweep to the end. These mountains were all filled with blood red rivers, these blood red rivers gave off loud rumbling sounds as they tumbled, but at the same time they also brought with them a fishy smell. This was not the smell of blood, but rather an indescribable fishy smell.
Ning Cheng was sure that he had not seen it wrong, these mountains were actually Blood Rivers.
This completely went against the laws of gravity, as the blood rivers were spread out on top of these blood red mountain peaks, it was just like a hanging river. Moreover these rivers were also tumbling endlessly, bringing with it a spray of water.
'The Milky Way falling from the Ninth Heaven' was used to describe this scene, it would be more accurate to describe a waterfall, it was just that it had to be changed to a Blood River.
On top of each blood red mountain peak, there were more than one or two Blood Rivers, and in between these Blood Rivers, there was always a narrow path. Ning Cheng also understood what Gongsun Yan meant when she said that the path in the Blood River Peaks was very narrow, what she was talking about was the path that hung down from the Blood Rivers.
These Blood Rivers hung down from the top of the mountain peaks, and in addition to the fact that the river water was bright red in colour, the rest of it was just like any ordinary river, it looked extremely strange, but Ning Cheng had already vaguely understood it.
He was used to things falling from a high altitude, and the river water always flowed down from a high altitude, it was completely because of gravity, or perhaps it was a kind of habitual perception. If the gravity of the Blood River Peaks was much stronger than the gravity of the earth, and it was also evenly distributed, then what about it?
Of course, Ning Cheng also knew that he was just guessing, or perhaps this Blood River was actually an Array Formation. In this place, even if something strange happened, he would not find it unexpected.
"Big Brother Ning, Senior Apprentice Sister Ji and Elder Sister Lingwei are trapped inside, I'll take you there … …" Gongsun Yan spoke, as she hurriedly entered the path under the Blood River Peaks.
Ning Cheng hurriedly followed behind Gongsun Yan, he found that his Spiritual Consciousness was simply unable to penetrate through these Blood River Peaks, as his Spiritual Consciousness was immediately blocked in this place.
Gongsun Yan had not gone far, when Ning Cheng saw Yan Ji and Jia Lingwei. The two of them were struggling back to back against the seemingly endless horde of red monstrous beasts. These red monstrous beasts were not big, but each and every one of them had bright red fur, and had two sharp teeth, while at the same time they had extremely sharp claws, and while they were attacking, they were simultaneously issuing ear-piercing screeches. Moreover, they simply did not care about their companions being killed, and were just like a tidal wave swarming towards Yan Ji and Jia Lingwei.
Ning Cheng could see that Yan Ji's Blue Meteor Damask was covered in starlight, but it was only able to kill a very small number of the red monstrous beasts, while even more of the monstrous beasts were blown away by the starlight, at best they were only able to retreat a little, and then quickly rush up again. The fur of these red monstrous beasts was unexpectedly incomparably hard.
"These are all Blood River Otters, not only are they highly toxic, but their skin is also very thick, ordinary magical techniques are simply useless against them." Gongsun Yan quickly pointed towards the swarm of red monstrous beasts and explained to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng nodded, he saw that the Blood River on both sides of the path that Yan Ji and Jia Lingwei were on had already begun to rise, the Blood River had even reached the path that they were on.
"Big Brother Ning, you have to quickly help them, the tide of the Blood River is about to rise. Once the tide of the Blood River rises, it will directly submerge the path, Elder Sister Lingwei and Senior Apprentice Sister Ji will be swept away by the tide of the Blood River, they will definitely not be able to survive … … We are too late … … "Gongsun Yan's tone was filled with tears, once the tide of the Blood River rises, even Ning Cheng would not be able to save Jia Lingwei and Yan Ji.
Even if Gongsun Yan did not say anything, Ning Cheng could already feel the danger. Even if the Blood River did not corrode them, if Yan Ji and Jia Lingwei were to be swept away by this Blood River, then they would definitely be eaten by the inexhaustible Blood River Otters.
This was the first time that Ning Cheng had seen a Blood River Otter, but when he was very young, he had heard a lot of ghost stories about water monkeys. Water monkeys were the name given to them in the countryside, but there were also people who called them water cats, he heard that this kind of thing was specialized in killing people in the water. After Ning Cheng studied it, he had specially researched about it, he believed that this kind of water monkey was actually an otter, but had been mystified.
Regardless of whether the Blood River Otters were the same thing as the water monkeys or not, Ning Cheng had already rushed towards the path in the middle of the Blood River.
Jia Lingwei and Yan Ji were surrounded by an inexhaustible amount of Blood River Otters, and the clothes on their bodies had already been torn to shreds. Looking at their dishevelled appearance, compared to Zhangsun Yan who had been looking for Ning Cheng before, they were in a much more distressed state.
Ning Cheng had already brought out the Profound Break Spear in his hands, and an incomparably cold Profound Ice Spear Shadow swept out. With Ning Cheng's current cultivation, after the 36 Profound Ice Spear Shadows were completely stimulated, it brought out a terrifying Ice Net, which in an instant shocked these Blood River Otters. The Blood River Otters here were mostly at Rank 3 or Rank 4, if Ning Cheng brought out his True Devil Axe, and fully displayed his Axe Line, then perhaps he would be able to kill a large number of them with just a single axe strike, this was the disparity between their cultivations.
The Blood River Otters on both sides also seemed to be because of Ning Cheng's Profound Ice Spear Shadows, at this moment it began to roar, a large amount of Blood River Waves pushed forward, and instantly submerged the path in front of them.
Jia Lingwei and Yan Ji, the two people continuously stimulated their True Essence to kill the Blood River Otters, and were already like an arrow at the end of its flight. This kind of large amount of Blood River Waves, they simply could not stop it. While they were still in a daze for a moment, they suddenly felt their bodies become light.
"Boom … …" The next moment the Blood River Waves swept past their feet.
