The dark clouds cover the sky and the sun, and the old trees withered vines under the Jiguan Ridge are tied up.

The fine and dense raindrops fell from the sky, and only the sound of flowing water in the distant streams could be heard in the valley.

With She Yulong's words "forbidden sound", the words in the cave came to an abrupt end.

Zuo Lingquan pressed the hilt of the sword around his waist, and Wang Rui put away the wooden box and looked outside at the same time.

In the dense forest outside the stone cave, She Yulong, dressed in black, had pulled out the sword on his back. A faint white light appeared on the sword edge. This was a manifestation of the seventh level of Qi refining and the appearance of true qi.

Zuo Lingquan was extremely powerful and listened carefully. There was no movement in the dense forest. He hesitated for a moment, walked out of the cave silently and approached She Yulong.

Wang Rui was quite powerful among his brothers who were patrolling the mountain this time. Seeing that there was something outside, he also walked beside Zuo Lingquan with a sword, looking around carefully along the way.

She Yulong noticed that Zuo Lingquan and Wang Rui were behind him, raised his left hand to stop, and said softly:

"There is movement in the southeast direction, and something must be hidden. Lingquan, go back and stay; Wang Rui, follow me."

Wang Rui nodded slightly, followed She Yulong, and entered the dense forest one after another.

Although Zuo Lingquan did not have the cultivation level, his martial arts skills were not low. He followed him and could not make any moves. He hesitated for a moment and still followed behind.

Seeing this, She Yulong frowned slightly, but didn't say much, and took the two into the dense forest.

The dense forest is full of old trees with withered vines and no roads. When you walk deeper, the canopy blocks the already dark light, making it difficult to see even the first five steps.

The three of them walked silently in the forest holding long swords.

Zuo Lingquan knew the power of the ferocious beast, but did not ask for it. He carefully distinguished everything outside the sound of the rain. After walking more than a hundred steps towards the southeast, he finally heard some subtle sounds.

Sce—

The sound of breathing.

Zuo Lingquan and She Yulong turned their heads at the same time and looked at a pile of weeds deep in the forest. Seeing that the shrubs were only two feet away from them, they were shocked.

Wang Rui, who was following, noticed his movements and turned to look at the bushes, but as soon as he moved his feet, his face turned pale in an instant, and he spoke in a low voice:

"You guys run away, I seem to step on a big guy."

Zuo Lingquan and She Yulong quickly lowered their heads and found a "log" lying among the weeds under their feet.

The logs were covered with blue scales, and were as thick as a man's waist, extending forward into the bushes in front.

Before Zuo Lingquan could see what it was, the bushes in front suddenly exploded. The broken leaves flew across the sky, and a triangular snake head was poked out, his eyes were scarlet, and his bloody mouth was covered with barbs and fangs, rushing towards the three of them like a snake catching a mouse.

"retreat!"

She Yulong looked up and saw this scene, and his face changed suddenly - he patrolled the mountain many times and recognized that this was the ape-eyed python. The ape-eyed python often appeared in places where snake kiss grass grew, and he ate the snake kiss grass for many years. The longer the time, the bigger the body. The ape-eyed python in front of him was at least three feet long, and it took less than thirty years to be so big.

The Ape Eye Python is known for its rough skin and thick flesh and quick movements. With the combat power of She Yulong's seventh level of Qi refining, it was discovered in advance that it might be able to kill, but when I walked up to it, I found that it was still raided by the Ape Eye Python, so it was not easy to resist.

Seeing the ape-eyed python coming, She Yulong flew back without any hesitation, with a long sword standing in front of her to prevent accidents.

Zuo Lingquan has been practicing martial arts since childhood. Although he has no cultivation, his physical reaction is even more exaggerated than She Yulong. He was ready to hide at the moment when the ape-eyed python rushed out of the grass.

But just as Zuo Lingquan was about to retreat, Yu Guang found that Wang Rui next to him was slid forward.

Wang Rui was already scared and looked deserted. It was obvious that his head was not rushing forward.

Zuo Lingquan glanced down and found that Wang Rui's legs had been wrapped around by the snake's tail and were dragged towards the snake's head.

Zuo Lingquan's eyes changed slightly, and without thinking, he grabbed Wang Rui's shoulder.

She Yulong also saw Wang Rui's situation, but did not lend a helping hand, but retreated and said sternly:

"Take care of yourself!"

However, Zuo Lingquan met a ferocious beast in Linhefang, where he was just a new arrival. He would not stand by and watch within his ability. At this time, Wang Rui, who had some friendship, was about to fall into Shekou. How could he be so cold that he watched the other party die?

Zuo Lingquan never thought that relying on She Yulong, after grabbing Wang Rui's shoulder, he was pulled towards Shekou under the huge pulling force.

He first slashed down with a sword, trying to cut off the snake's tail.

However, the snake's tail is also as thick as a bowl mouth, and the skin is covered with scales. It hastily cut out a hole more than an inch deep, but it did not stop the giant python from dragging it.

Seeing that he had been dragged to Shekou, the smell of fishy smell came to his face, Zuo Lingquan raised his sword again, trying to block Shekou with his long sword.

In She Yulong's view, the only moves that could be taken in hasty are no different from dying.

The ape-eyed python is poisonous. Even if it is stuck in the snake's mouth, the venom sprayed from the poisonous fangs can also keep Wang Rui's corpse alive. If Zuo Lingquan is accidentally infected with the venom, he will either die or be injured.

She Yulong is not a ruthless person, and he also cares about his junior brothers' lives. However, how long is the practice, any risky decision will make the way cut off.

The day when She Yulong set foot on this road, he learned a truth - only when he is alive is worthy of practicing, and all dead people return to the dust.

Therefore, when She Yulong doesn't know how to fight, he can feel guilty for this for the rest of his life, but he can't die here and don't even have the qualification to feel guilty.

The branches and leaves flew everywhere in the dense forest, but in the blink of an eye, the ape-eyed python dragged the two of them to the front and bit them down.

Zuo Lingquan stabbed into Shekou with his long sword, but he also saw the poisonous fangs that were ready to go in Shekou.

At the critical moment, Zuo Lingquan knew it was difficult to save him, and without hesitation, he slashed Wang Rui's entangled legs with a sword.

At this moment, a sword sounded suddenly among the tree canopy above the three of them that covered the sky and the sun.

Sa--

The sound of swords drove the wind and rain, as if it had shattered the entire tree canopy.

Even if the target was not Zuo Lingquan, Zuo Lingquan felt the unstoppable killing power.

Zuo Lingquan's sword edge suddenly stopped. Yu Guang looked up and saw a woman in a straw raincoat falling from the sky above the tree crown, holding a three-foot sharp blade. There was a green light flowing on the sword edge. The raindrops and branches and leaves close to the sword light all turned into powder.

A cultivator in the Linggu realm can leave his body without dissipating it, and is embodied in front of him. This is the blue crescent moon that seems to be able to cut down everything in the world.

Wu Qingwan is one step away from Linggu. The sword energy that comes out of her body is far less stable than that of the cultivators in Linggu realm, but it is enough to shock Zuo Lingquan, who has not yet entered the game.

The sword rises and falls, but in a moment.

Zuo Lingquan saw only a blue cold light that was more than meter long, passing through the giant python's head. The troubles in the dense forest came to an abrupt end and the dust settled.

The three-meter-long giant fell between the dense forests, and the snake's head was neatly split in half, falling on the ground and blood flowed.

Wang Rui was so scared that his face was gone. After falling to the ground, he had not yet come back to his senses, but just stared at the snake corpse in front of him.

She Yulong was calm and saw Wu Qingwan coming, so she quickly put her sword away and stood still, raising her hand and bowed:

"Uncle Wu."

Zuo Lingquan's sword edge stopped suddenly and quickly bounced up again. He first looked at the snake corpse on the ground, then looked at Wu Qingwan, who was standing on the branch holding a long sword upside down, and said unexpectedly:

"Senior Wu, why are you here?"

Wu Qingwan's eyebrows were frowned, not as gentle as she was in Qihuang Valley, and she looked more like a strict teacher. After glanced at the situation below, she said in a deep voice:

"She Yulong, why didn't you save me when I saw death?"

When She Yulong heard this reprimanded question, her expression did not change at all, and responded seriously:

"I can't save it."

Zuo Lingquan knew that She Yulong was telling the truth. He and She Yulong could not save her in such an emergency situation just now, but She Yulong's almost cold calm still made him frown.

Wu Qingwan on the tree branch was also dissatisfied with She Yulong's answer, which was a normal reaction for a person.

But Wu Qingwan also knew in her heart that there was no problem with She Yulong's approach.

The teachers once taught that practicing one way is to "walking alone in the great way". How many choices you have to face in the long years is hard for ordinary people to imagine. Once you take a wrong step, you will be the end of death.

With the views of Master Qihuanggu, the secular benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, integrity, and even blood and family affection will only become a burden for those who practice, because once they seek immortality, everything you know will become a passerby in the long years, and you are the only one who moves alone in the world. Without a skeleton heart, you cannot reach the end of this path.

She Yulong is a natural practitioner. His choices in the face of difficulties may be criticized, but his choice is indeed correct.

Wu Qingwan always remembered the teachings of her teachers, so although she was dissatisfied with She Yulong's almost cold-blooded calm, she nodded slightly after a moment of silence:

"Yes, take Wang Rui and other disciples back to Qihuang Valley."

She Yulong bowed and bowed, stepped forward to help Wang Rui, who was surviving in the desperate situation, and walked towards the stone cave.

Zuo Lingquan didn't expect Wu Qingwan would praise She Yulong. He stood under the big tree and waited for She Yulong to walk away before shook his head and said:

"This Senior Brother She is a little cold-blooded."

Being alone with Zuo Lingquan, Wu Qingwan still didn't show her gentle appearance, but asked:
