Chapter 494: An Experienced Horse

Soon, Xiao Mian learned the mystery from the old man.

It turned out that although the Congling Mountains are the border between Xishuzhou and Zhongzhou, it does not mean that Zhongzhou is just across the Congling Mountains.

In other words, to enter Zhongzhou, you must first pass the Yumen Pass!

"Yumen Pass? What is that?"

"That is not a thing! It is a man-made natural barrier!"

The old man who was helped by the two was named Ou Haiyang. He was at the initial stage of Jindan cultivation and was over 450 years old this year. He was about to die.

Seeing Xiao Mian and Gui Hai looking at him in confusion, although Ou Haiyang was grateful for the help of the two young men, he shook his head unconsciously: these two young men were completely clueless and did not even know about the Yumen Pass!

"Yumen Tianguan, that is a fortress built by the monks of Zhongzhou, stretching across the east side of the Pamir Mountains and the west of Zhongzhou, with endless mountains on both sides. It is known as a fortress where one man can block the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it. The monks of Xishuzhou must pass Yumen Tianguan to enter Zhongzhou!"

"Since Mr. Ou said that Yumen Tianguan is a man-made natural barrier, I guess it is not easy to pass it, right?" After chatting along the way, Xiao Mian quickly became familiar with Mr. Ou. Besides, Ou Haiyang was in a low mood when talking about Yumen Tianguan. Seeing Xiao Mian asking, he had to explain: "Yumen Tianguan, of course, is not for the monks of Xishuzhou to pass through. To pass Yumen Tianguan, one must have 100,000 middle spirits!"

"What!?"

"100,000 middle spirits?"

For a moment, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai both exclaimed.

One hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones, even in Xishu Province, is a considerable fortune. If it is in the more barren Nanyue Province, it is a huge fortune!

I didn't expect that it would cost one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones to pass through the Yumen Pass!

"Young men, now you know why so many cultivators gather in the market? Most of those cultivators are like me who can't collect the toll of one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones. Of course, there are also many who fish in troubled waters..."

Xiao Mian was stunned when he heard this, thinking.

"The toll is only 100,000 middle-grade spirit stones. What do those people in Zhongzhou want to do? Rob? Those high-ranking Tianzuns in Zhongzhou, don't they care?"

"Oh! Young man, be careful with your words!" Ou Haiyang said, looking around, but saw that there were only him, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai here. He suddenly realized and laughed: "Those high-ranking Tianzuns in Zhongzhou? Haha..., Yumen Tianguan originally belongs to Zhongzhou. They collected 100,000 middle-grade spirit stones from each person, and I don't know how many of them went into the pockets of the ten Tianzuns!"

Xiao Mian and Gui Hai were stunned when they heard this and looked at each other.

But at this time, several men in black appeared on the empty road ahead. Ou Haiyang is indeed an old and cunning man. When he saw that something was wrong, he immediately kept silent.

Xiao Mian and Gui Hai knew that someone must be following them after leaving the market. Now that they saw someone robbing the road ahead, they felt relieved.

A blade in the open is always easier to deal with than an arrow hidden in the dark!

From a distance, there are ten robbers in front, one of whom is a high-level Jindan, four are mid-level Jindan, and five are primary Jindan. They look at Xiao Mian and the other two and stop.

"What do you mean?"

"What else can I say? Kill them!" Gui Hai's words were not timid at all, but eager to try. It's no wonder that after the change in Gui Xiao Valley, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai were cautious all the way and didn't want to cause trouble. But now that they have caused trouble, they are not afraid of trouble. Raising the ghost-head knife and pointing at the ten people in front, Gui Hai smiled proudly: "Come on! Let your grandfather play with you!"

After that, Gui Hai rushed to the ten people in front alone.

From beginning to end, Xiao Mian stood beside Ou Haiyang, unmoved.

"This..., Young Master Xiao, aren't you going to help?"

"Help? Who are you helping?"

"..."

Ou Haiyang just felt it was incredible. Although Gui Hai was a high-level Jindan cultivator, there was clearly a high-level Jindan cultivator among the ten people in front. How come this Young Master Xiao didn't worry about the safety of his companion at all?

Instead, he was worried about the ten robbers?

But soon, Ou Haiyang knew why Xiao Mian was so calm.

Gui Hai rushed forward alone, and the other ten people fought back.

Although the Panlong soul sealed inside the ghost head knife was integrated into Gui Hai's soul, it did not disappear. On the contrary, because of the complete unity with Gui Hai's soul, Gui Hai and the ghost head knife had a kind of intimacy.

Therefore, the ghost head knife is now more powerful in Gui Hai's hands.

As the ghost-head knife flew, the Breaking Precepts Sword Technique opened and closed, and black ghost dragons like arms flew out from the ghost-head knife. Each ghost dragon was condensed from the sword light of the Breaking Precepts Sword Technique. This was what Gui Hai realized after he merged with the Panlong soul.

After merging with the Panlong soul, Gui Hai not only became more murderous, but also became more adept at the changes of the Panlong soul and could do whatever he wanted.

Now this change is to divide the entire Panlong soul into dozens of parts. Although the offensive power of each ghost dragon will be weakened, the number will increase accordingly - it will come in handy when dealing with some miscellaneous troops that are not as strong as himself.

With Gui Hai's current high-level Jindan cultivation, among the ten people present, only the cultivator who is also a high-level Jindan is valued by him. The rest are just mediocre.

While the ghost dragon was wreaking havoc, three junior Jindan cultivators were accidentally injured. One of them died due to a critical injury.

Seeing how powerful Guihai was, the high-level Jindan monk who had originally planned to watch temporarily had to join the battle in advance and took over most of Guihai's offensive.

As a result, the pressure on Guihai increased sharply, and the light of the Ghost Head Sword was also limited to a relatively narrow range. Gui Hai ignored him, standing there like a madman, waving the ghost head sword and killing all ten people, as if he wanted to kill them all.

For a moment, the sword light flashed and the blade wind surged.

The opponent's high-level Jindan cultivator joined in, but still could not stop the killing rhythm of Guihai. Seeing the third Jindan junior cultivator beheaded by the Ghost-headed Sword, the high-level Jindan cultivator's expression changed, he gritted his teeth and reached out. Take something out of your arms.

With a bang, a stream of light rushed into the sky.

Congling is located on a plateau, and the sky is clear and cloudless. Therefore, even in the daytime, the stream of light shoots straight into the sky and explodes into a bloody flower in the blue sky.

"Blood letter flower! This is the blood letter flower!" But it was Ou Haiyang who saw the blood flower blooming and shouted in horror: "Xiao Shaoxia, they are calling for friends..."

"Hmph! Calling friends? I think they are just friends!" Looking coldly at the blood flower blooming, Xiao Mian curled his lips and said, "It's best to do it all at once!"

"this……"

Before Ou Haiyang could say anything more, several flying sounds came from behind the two of them.

Seeing that although Guihai was still entangled by the opponent's high-level Golden Core cultivator, five of the ten junior Golden Core cultivators were dead, and one of the intermediate Golden Core cultivators also died. Obviously, the blooming of the Blood Letter Flower has also It did not stop the killings in Guihai.

Xiao Mian then turned around and saw another group of ten people rushing towards them, one more high-level Jin Dan, four intermediate Jin Dan, and five basic Jin Dan. The ten people in front were exactly the same, and they were obviously prepared.

"His grandma's fault! Yan Laoer, can't you let your Grandpa Xiong rest a little longer? Are you so anxious to light the Blood Letter Flower that you are in a hurry to reincarnate?" After the ten people from behind appeared, they did not immediately attack Xiao Mian and the Ou Haiyang, on the other hand, greeted the robbers in front of him. Soon he heard a shout from the front: "Xiong Da! Kill those two people as soon as possible. If you have any ideas, come here quickly..."

The person who spoke was Yan Laoer. Before he could finish his words, he was cut off by Gui Hai's sword. Although he was not injured, his hair was cut off by the light of the Ghost Head Saber.

At this time, Xiong Da, the leader of the ten people at the rear, also saw that the situation of Yan Lao'er and others was not good. Although he and Yan Lao'er had never been on good terms, he had long wanted to see the miserable situation of Yan Lao'er being dealt with. , but if Yan Laoer's group suffered too many casualties, it would not look good on his face after returning. After all, this operation was carried out by two groups of people.

Seeing that there were only four people left on Yan Laoer's side fighting the big man holding the ghost-headed sword, Xiong Da couldn't help but feel frightened secretly. At the same time, he felt lucky: I was lucky when the lot was drawn, otherwise I would have been beaten by that stupid big man now. The one I’m chasing is my big bear!

With this thought in mind, Xiong Da did not dare to hesitate anymore and attacked Xiao Mian head on.

From beginning to end, Xiao Mian never said a word.

Just when Xiong Da launched an offensive against him, Xiao Mian waved his hand to Ou Haiyang, signaling the old man to stay away and avoid suffering any disaster.

Only when Ou Haiyang retreated did Xiong Da's offensive arrive.

The one at the head was a dark and huge mace.

Before the mace arrived, the whistling wind blade hit him.

Letting two wind blades blow past his sides, Xiao Mian exhaled like thunder and punched out suddenly, hitting the head of the huge mace head-on with his giant golden fist. The next moment, without waiting for the mace to show its power, it flew back at a faster speed than the one coming from it. Xiong Da was seen scrambling for a while to avoid being hit by the mace.

For a moment, Xiong Da stood on the spot holding a mace.

As for the other nine people who followed Xiong Da, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.
