Chapter 165
Tang Yin wanted to go to Yancheng to rescue people in person. Naturally, the civil servants and military generals disapproved of it, thinking that the risk involved was very high. As the supreme commander of his own side, there was no need to risk it himself.TXT download.
Qiu Zhen objected at first, but after thinking about it, he remembered the shadow clone used by Tang Yin when he went to Besa to negotiate peace. With this magical skill, he didn't have to show up personally even if he went to Yancheng, and could just let the clone save people.
After thinking about this, he actually agreed with Tang Yin to go. With Tang Yin here, things would go more smoothly. In terms of adapting to crises when encountering crises, I am afraid no one could be better than him.
Qiu Zhen suddenly changed his mind and agreed with Tang Yin to go, which surprised everyone.
Shangguan Yuan asked the old god to say on the ground: "This kind of thing cannot be done without me. If you don't take me there, it is estimated that this trip will be very bad. If you take me there, it will be basically certain."
Tang Yin couldn't help but smile after hearing this. The important thing he likes and appreciates about Shangguan Yuanrang is that the latter's character is similar to his. Both of them have the same adventurous element in their personalities. I like to pursue the thrill of being on the thin line between life and death.
Without giving it much thought, Tang Yin said, "It would be great to have Yuan Rang accompany you."
Everyone looked at each other and stopped blocking them. Qiu Zhen was Tang Yin's number one think tank, and Shangguan Yuan Rang was Tang Yin's number one general. Both of them supported Tang Yin's decision, and the opposition from others seemed insignificant.
Deciding to go to Yancheng in person, Tang Yin found Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji that day and asked them to temporarily sit in Tianguan and take charge of the overall situation, while he himself had to go into the mountains to practice.
Naturally, Tang Yin knew the dangers of this trip. He felt that with his current cultivation and skills, it was not certain whether he could come back safely from Yancheng. He had to strengthen his skills.
What he mainly wants to practice is the Fire of Darkness. At present, his Fire of Darkness has only reached the first level, which is death burning. The spiritual energy absorbed is not much, only 50%, and using shadow clones to fight is extremely difficult. Consuming spiritual energy, without timely replenishment, it would be difficult to continue the battle, so he wanted to raise his dark fire to the second level, which is soul burning. Soul Burning can 100% absorb spiritual energy, which is very important to him. Absorbing one person is equivalent to two people before. If he can absorb spiritual warriors, he will get more spiritual energy. This is enough to support his The clones fight for a long time.
It's just that it's easy to say, but too difficult to do. The realm of Dark Fire is not so easy to improve, and even the original Yan Lie did not achieve this.
Suddenly hearing that he was going to the mountains to practice, Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji were both startled, and subconsciously asked: "Which mountain are you going to?"
Tang Yin smiled and asked: "Which other mountains are near Tianguan?"
The location of Tianguan is between two mountains and a ditch. The two mountains refer to the famous Ten Thousand Beast Mountains in Feng Kingdom. The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, crossing the territory of Feng Kingdom. If it were not connected by Tianguan, it would be equivalent to cutting off Tianyuan County from the mainland of Feng Kingdom. The mountains of WanShou Mountain are high and steep, covering a vast area, and are covered by lush primeval forests. Entering it, it is easy to get lost in it. It has been rumored that there are magical beasts left over from ancient times in WanShou Mountain, and there are also many cultivators. The spirits went into the mountain to explore, but they either never returned or gained nothing. Gradually, no one went into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain to investigate anymore.
At this time, Qiu Zhen said in surprise: "Sir, you want to enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?"
"Yes!" Tang Yin didn't hide it and nodded. To practice the fire of darkness, you must use the fire of darkness. Now he can't find a target to start with, so he can only use the animals in the mountains as training targets.
Shangguan Yuanji asked nervously: "Sir, do you want to go in alone?"
Tang Yin gave a grunt and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you two. I have lived in the mountains since I was a child. When I enter the deep mountains and forests, I feel like I am at home. I will be fine."
Even though they said this, Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji still frowned with worry on their faces.
Tang Yin continued: "I will go into the mountains this time for at least five days or as long as ten days. When I come back, the news from Lu Fang will have been sent back, and the battle will not be delayed." After a pause, he said quietly: "Self-cultivation Since Lingwu, I have been fighting and have never taken time for systematic training. This trip to the mountains is just to strengthen the skills I have learned, and also to ensure that the trip to Yancheng will not return in vain."
Qiu Zhen no longer stopped him, but sighed secretly, nodded, and said seriously: "When you enter the mountain, you must pay attention to your own safety."
"Of course." Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said: "During my absence, you must strictly keep the secret, otherwise, the soldiers below may think that I, the county guard, escaped from the battle!"
Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji also smiled and nodded in unison.
Except for Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji, no one knew about Tang Yin's plan to practice in the mountain. That night, he packed his bags, put on casual clothes, secretly left Tianguan and entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.
The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is too big and the forest is too dense. As soon as a person enters it, he is immediately submerged in the vast sea of forests.
Tang Yin has lived in the mountains and forests for a long time and has a strong ability to adapt to the mountain environment. Now that he has spiritual martial arts skills, he is like a fish in water. After entering the mountains, he continued to go deep into the hinterland of the mountains and forests.
Because there are so few people here, there are many birds and beasts in the mountains, and these flocks of birds and beasts became the objects for Tang Yin to practice the Dark Fire.
He walked in the mountains for a whole night. When it got dark, he didn't know how far he had walked. He looked around and saw mountains towering into the clouds besides the forest.
After walking forward for a while, it suddenly dawned on us that there was a large valley in front of us. There were no forests in the valley, but vast green grasslands, and dense flocks of sheep were gnawing the grass leisurely in the valley.
Seeing this, Tang Yin was overjoyed. He leaned down and slowly approached the sheep without making a sound. When he was nearby, he stretched out his palm, and the fire of darkness burned and pulsed in his palm. After a while, he suddenly came out, He grabbed a goat by the neck, and with a roar, the goat was instantly burned into spiritual smoke. The other goats realized the danger and began to run away. They ran fast, but not as fast as Tang Yin, who chased the goat. The group used dark fire from time to time, and the fleeing goats turned into a faint spiritual mist under his dark fire.
The spiritual energy formed by goats is much less than that of humans. Tang Yin did not do it to increase his cultivation, but just to practice the fire of darkness. However, he killed most of the sheep, and the fire of darkness was still in the state of burning death.
Finally, he was tired of chasing, so he sat on the ground, spread out his palms, looked at the black flames burning in his palms, and sighed helplessly.
Improving the realm of Dark Fire is much more difficult than improving cultivation. Otherwise, Yan Lie would have already reached the second level of Dark Fire.
After a short pause, Tang Yin stood up again and continued walking deeper into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.
He walked around the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain for three days. During these three days, whenever he saw a bird or beast, no matter how big or small, he would immediately rush up and use dark fire on it. There were countless birds and beasts that he burned, but There was still no sign of improvement in the Dark Fire, which disappointed Tang Yin.
However, he did not give up and continued deeper.
On the fourth day, he miraculously met two people, two hunters who went deep into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain to collect medicine.
It is not easy to meet people in the deep mountains. Tang Yin was very happy and took the initiative to say hello.
At first, the two hunters were very wary of Tang Yin, but when they started chatting, they found that Tang Yin was polite and courteous. In addition, he had a natural smile and was very lovable, so they slowly let go of their wariness.
The two hunters were both in their thirties, dark and thin. The straw baskets they carried were filled with various rare medicinal materials, including ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and other treasures.
The two asked Tang Yin, "Young man, why did you go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I heard that ancient monsters often appear in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. I want to meet them!"
"Haha——" After hearing this, the two hunters laughed, shook their heads, and said: "That's just a rumor. The ancient monsters have been extinct long ago. How can you still see them now? We have been collecting herbs in Wanshou Mountain for more than ten years. , I have never seen a monster."
Although Tang Yin didn't come here for Warcraft, he was still a little disappointed when he heard what he said. He asked: "However, many people who entered Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain did not come out, and there were also spiritual cultivators among them. So what's going on?"
The two hunters shrugged and said, "I guess I got lost in the mountains and couldn't get out. The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is so big, and the mountains all look the same. It's the first time I've been here. It's easy to get dizzy in the mountains." ”
"Yes! We have also encountered explorers who walked around just circling a mountain. Alas, those explorers only want to find the monsters and dream of making a fortune. I think the real monsters live in their In my heart.”
Tang Yin looked up and smiled. He couldn't tell that these two ordinary hunters were very philosophical when they spoke.
"Young man, where do you plan to go?"
"Climb over this mountain." Tang Yin pointed to the mountain in front of him and said, "Continue walking inside."
The faces of the two hunters changed slightly, they shook their heads and said, "Young man, I advise you to stop here and don't go inside anymore."
"Why?" Tang Yin looked at the two of them puzzled.
Orion said: "Further in, there is the center of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. Neither of us has ever been there, but we often hear warnings from the older generation that there are ferocious beasts like jackals, tigers and leopards there, and they are very ferocious. Eat people without spitting out their bones."
Another hunter nodded his head and added: "There are also big pythons and bears."
Tang Yin didn't take it seriously and just shrugged.
Seeing this, the two hunters asked: "What? Young man, do you still want to go?"
Tang Yin said: "Beasts are not scary. In fact, what is really scary is the right people."
The two hunters couldn't understand what he meant, but seeing that he insisted on going, they both shook their heads with regret, as if he would never come back.
Tang Yin looked at the medicinal materials in their straw basket and said with a smile: "I don't have much food with me. I wonder if I can buy some things from you two."
Two hunters asked: "Young man, what do you want to buy?"
Tang Yin rummaged through the straw basket, took out the two largest ginsengs, and said, "Just these two!" As he spoke, he reached into his arms, took out a piece of gold, handed it to the two of them, and asked : "Is this money enough?"
The medicine collected by the hunters was also sold to apothecaries. Although these two ginsengs were good, the apothecaries would never give out so much gold. Seeing this, the two hunters hurriedly took the gold and weighed it in their hands. After confirming that it was true, he said repeatedly: "That's enough, that's enough. In fact, we don't need this much. Young man, you... just pick some more!"
He is a simple and honest person, but after taking advantage of him, he feels very sorry for him.
