Chapter 339: First Time in the Demon World, a Clue

Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran followed Wang Feng all the way west, passing through the market, and they didn't even think about stopping.

Xiao Zhuoran rarely spoke. He followed behind, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"This is a bit strange."

Xiao Zhuoran sent a message to Zhou You, with a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

Zhou You didn't care, and responded lightly: "It's okay, Senior Brother Wang won't harm me. If someone else has ulterior motives, it's just right to help Senior Brother Wang get rid of this scourge, so as not to suffer in the future."

Xiao Zhuoran nodded.

But he was also very curious about what Zhou You and Wang Feng had experienced, which made Zhou You trust Wang Feng so much.

You know, Xiao Zhuoran knows Zhou You very well.

Zhou You has always rarely trusted others.

There are probably only a few people who are trusted by Zhou You, Bai Chiyu is naturally needless to say, and Xiao Zhuoran can only count him and Wang Tiezhu.

Zhou You has always had many countermeasures to guard against everyone.

Now he believes in Wang Feng so much.

Xiao Zhuoran believes that the relationship between them must be very good.

After leaving the market, the Demon Sea is not far ahead.

The Demon Sea is not a real sea.

This is an extremely huge mountain range, which is shrouded in fog that will not dissipate all year round. Even the divine consciousness is difficult to penetrate this fog. Looking down from the sky, it looks like a huge sea.

Therefore, it is called the Demon Sea.

This Demon Sea is full of mixed people, and there are demon cultivators who kill and rob everywhere. It is even rumored that there are powerful demons in the depths.

These demons are almost all terrifying beings who have lost their minds. They almost kill people when they see them, and their strength is often much higher than that of cultivators of the same level. There was a rumor that even the God Transformation Stage entered it and never came out again.

It can be seen how terrifying the depths of the Demon Sea are.

Of course.

While being terrifying, it is naturally indispensable to have good fortune.

It is said that there are good fortunes in the depths of the Demon Sea, and it can even be said that there are opportunities everywhere. There was once a cultivator who had reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul. When his life was about to end, he stepped into the depths of the Demon Sea. When he finally came out, he had already become a god.

It was because of this incident that the entire depths of the Demon Sea became a paradise for countless demon cultivators.

A large number of demon cultivators stepped into the depths of the Demon Sea when their lifespans were about to end, wanting to seek opportunities to break through.

However, most demon cultivators never came out again.

Of course, there were also a few cultivators who came out and successfully broke through.

This part is a minority after all.

After entering the Demon Sea, Zhou You clearly felt that a lot of spiritual consciousness fell on him and others, but most of these spiritual consciousness were spiritual consciousness in the foundation-building period. When they found that the three cultivators were in the middle stage of the Jindan period, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.

But it also confirmed the chaos here from the side.

Even the foundation-building cultivators dared to enter this place.

And they were unscrupulous and blatantly inquired about all the cultivators passing by.

As long as they find someone with a lower cultivation level than themselves, they will attack and kill him without hesitation.

In less than half an hour after entering, Zhou You and his companions encountered five battles, all of which were about killing and robbing. Those cultivators were almost all in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Among the five waves of battles, only one battle was in the Core Formation Stage.

It can be seen from this that most of the cultivators in this Demon Sea Outskirts are still in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Of course.

The deeper you go, the higher the cultivation level of the cultivators.

And Zhou You was surprised to find that the spiritual energy here was quite good.

It was much better than the ordinary sects with Yuanying Stage ancestors.

This was just the Demon Sea Outskirts.

If you go to the depths, the spiritual energy will definitely be stronger.

Wang Feng led the way in front. He was not surprised at all by the battles he saw along the way, and even felt that it was commonplace.

"There are hundreds of battles here every day, almost all of which are about snatching resources and killing people for looting."

Wang Feng explained.

Xiao Zhuoran wondered, "How many people can survive with such frequent fighting? Why do you have to go to other markets to find a cave to practice?"

After a pause, Xiao Zhuoran said, "If this continues, even if there are more cultivators, the number of cultivators will decrease, right?"

Wang Feng laughed, "Brother Xiao, you don't know, if you can practice peacefully, who doesn't want to practice peacefully? Where do spirit stones come from if you practice peacefully? What if you don't have enough qualifications? This road to cultivating immortals is full of ups and downs. Even if you practice peacefully in a cave, can you guarantee that you will never fight for your whole life?"

"..."

Xiao Zhuoran remained silent. He was unable to refute Wang Feng's words.

Wang Feng continued, "I have seen something similar in a mortal city. A mortal emperor wanted to build fortifications to surround the entire country. People died almost every day during the construction. There were almost only bones under the fortifications, but there were still a steady stream of people who wanted to join in. Do you know why?"

Xiao Zhuoran said, "The emperor is the master of a country and has the power of life and death over the people. Who dares not to obey his orders?"

Wang Feng shook his head and said, "The emperor didn't force anyone, but... he paid very high wages, three times the wages of ordinary people. Even if the common people knew that their lives were in danger, they would join without hesitation, because their families were waiting for the rice to cook. If you don't join, your family will starve to death."

"Besides, who doesn't hold a fluke mentality? As long as you are careful, he may not be the one to die."

After listening to Wang Feng's words, Xiao Zhuoran fell silent and couldn't speak for a long time.

Zhou You listened to Wang Feng's words and didn't say a word.

For Zhou You, these things are too common.

This is the case wherever you are.

Sometimes you don't do it unless there is danger.

Many things are beyond your control.

Everyone knows that the road to immortal cultivation is difficult. Almost no one can reach the end. Even most cultivators die on the cruel road of immortal cultivation just after they set foot on it.

But if a Qi-cultivating cultivator who has died once is allowed to choose again, will he choose to be a mortal?

Unsurprisingly, he will still choose to cultivate immortals.

Zhou You looked at the chaos in front of him and just shook his head slightly.

Soon they came to the inner area of ​​the Demon Sea, which was not far from the depths of the Demon Sea. Jindan cultivators could be seen everywhere, and Zhou You could even faintly feel the breath of the Nascent Soul stage.

They stopped on a mountain full of bones.

This mountain was barren, and a layer of strange fog shrouded it.

"Daoyou Baigu, Wang is here."

Wang Feng bowed to Baigu Mountain and said politely.

"Daoyou Wang, you are finally here, please come in."

A cold voice sounded, and then the strange fog dispersed. It was obviously a formation.

Wang Feng flew into Baigu Mountain without hesitation, and Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran did not hesitate to follow Wang Feng.

The three came to Baigu Mountain and found a cave on it. From a distance, the cave looked like a huge evil ghost with its fangs bared.

At this time, the cave entrance opened, and a cold voice sounded from inside: "I am not able to move, please come in by yourselves."

They did not hesitate and followed Wang Feng into the cave.

The cave was still full of bones, and there were skulls piled on the wall. It was unknown how many there were.

Wang Feng explained: "Daoist Bai Gu likes to collect skulls."

After hearing this, Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran both looked strange.

What kind of contestants are these? They have such a hobby?

Zhou You did not say much and followed Wang Feng to the end of the cave.

In the cave, a middle-aged monk in a wheelchair looked at Zhou You and his friends.

Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran were also looking at the middle-aged monk.

This middle-aged monk was skinny, especially his head, which was no different from a skull covered with a layer of human skin, and looked extremely scary.

He seemed to be unable to move, and he bowed to Zhou You and his friends while sitting in a wheelchair.

"I am Bai Gu, and I meet you two Daoists."

Bai Gu was quite polite.

Zhou You bowed and nodded: "Zhou You, hello, fellow Taoist."

Xiao Zhuoran also bowed: "I am Xiao Zhuoran, hello, fellow Taoist."

Bai Gu smiled and nodded, then motioned Zhou You and the others to sit down.

It would be fine if he didn't laugh, but this laugh was even more terrifying, like someone who walked out of hell.

Xiao Zhuoran's scalp was numb.

Zhou You was better.

However, Zhou You could tell at a glance that Bai Gu's leg and foot problems were real, and there was a reason.

There was a strange force lingering around his knees, affecting Bai Gu's movements.

It was just that a cultivator who had reached the great perfection of the Jindan stage could not stand, which was an extremely strange thing.

Zhou You also understood why Bai Gu asked them to come in person.

The other party's leg and foot problems even affected his flight, and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. It would be dangerous to walk around in this sea of ​​demons.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, I have found some clues about the matter you asked me to find out."

Bai Gu did not exchange pleasantries with Wang Feng, but went straight to the point.

Wang Feng bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai Gu has helped me so much, I will definitely remember it."

Bai Gu waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor. Besides, I can't help you. I just provided you with a clue."

Then, Bai Gu began to talk about the clues of the secret technique.

After an incense stick.

Wang Feng frowned and looked a little ugly.

It turned out that according to Bai Gu, a cultivator he knew had mastered this secret technique, but unfortunately, this person's life span was about to end. In order to be able to become a god, he had already stepped into the depths of the demon sea ten years ago.

He has never come out since then.

Now no one knows what happened to the cultivator, whether he is dead or alive.

So if you want to get the secret technique, you must see him alive or dead.

After hearing this, Wang Feng said helplessly: "The depths of the Demon Sea are extremely dangerous. Ordinary cultivators dare not set foot in it. No one will enter unless it is absolutely necessary. Junior Brother Zhou, I think it's better to forget about this matter. I will continue to help you find out. There should be a way."

Bai Gu also persuaded: "Wang Daoyou is right. I see that your bones are not old. I think you are only one or two hundred years old. You still have a lot of time. There is no need to take risks for a secret technique. Let's find other ways."

Zhou You smiled and bowed his hands and said: "Thank you for your advice. Let me consider it."

"Okay."

Wang Feng nodded helplessly, giving Zhou You enough time to consider.

And Bai Gu shook his head helplessly, but didn't say anything more.

After all, for him, he was not going to the depths of the Demon Sea anyway. He just provided a piece of information and kindly persuaded Zhou You. If Zhou You insisted on going, he would certainly not stop him.

Zhou You pretended to think for a moment, then said: "This secret technique is very important to me. No matter what, I have to try it."

After hearing this, Wang Feng's face changed slightly. He wanted to persuade him again, but Zhou You seemed to have known his thoughts for a long time, so he said: "Brother Wang, I know you are doing this for my own good, but if I don't get the secret technique, I may never be able to condense the Nascent Soul in this life!"

He deliberately said it very seriously, which also made Wang Feng's face change again.

"I didn't expect that this secret technique is so important to you!"

Wang Feng thought about it and sighed: "In this case, then I will accompany you to go to the depths of the demons. I have heard that this place is extremely dangerous. I want to see how dangerous it is!"

After this, even Bai Gu's eyes flashed with surprise, and then his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xiao Zhuoran also looked at Wang Feng in surprise. Obviously, he didn't expect Wang Feng to be willing to accompany Zhou You to such a dangerous place.

Xiao Zhuoran finally understood why Zhou You trusted Wang Feng so much.

Zhou You was about to refuse, but Wang Feng said, "Brother Zhou, you don't have to persuade me. No matter what, I can't watch you go into danger alone!"

Zhou You was a little helpless and could only nod.

In fact, Zhou You was not afraid of the so-called Immortal Emperor in the Demon Sea. Since Wang Feng wanted to accompany him in, Zhou You had to go along with him.

Bai Gu said at this time: "The relationship between the two Taoist friends really makes Bai envy."

After a pause, Bai Gu looked at Zhou You and handed Zhou You a jade slip and a storage bag: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, this jade slip contains the information of the cultivator. There is a material in the storage bag. I bought it from him at the beginning. There is his breath on it. You go to the nearby market and buy a spirit beast to find the smell. You should be able to find him."

Zhou You looked at Bai Gu in surprise, but did not take it. He said: "Fellow Daoist Bai has such a great gift, I dare not Take it."

Bai Gu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou is really cautious, but I will not hide it. You can see that my legs and feet were harmed by the traitor. If there is no antidote, I am afraid that this will be the end of my life. It is impossible to form a baby. According to Bai's investigation, there is a herb in the depths of the Demon Sea that can help me recover, so I want to ask you to help me pick it!"

"If you can help me get that herb, I will reward you!"

As he said, Bai Gu bowed to Zhou You with a very sincere attitude.

Zhou You said, "If that place is not dangerous, you can try it."

After that, Zhou You collected the jade slip and storage bag, and then the three of them said goodbye to Bai Gu, left Bai Gu's cave, and turned to the depths of the Demon Sea.

But Zhou You's decision made Xiao Zhuoran very puzzled. (End of this chapter)
