After Long Yu passed through his second mental tribulation, he felt that his strength had become more consolidated, and his affinity with the laws of heaven and earth was also stronger than before.
"As long as I survive the third heart tribulation, I can take the Renhuan Golden Pill and try to break through the bottleneck and enter the Tianchu realm."
Long Yu has a very incisive understanding of his own martial arts path.
No matter how powerful the Great Wilderness-level martial arts are, no matter how formidable the Void Dragon Blade or the Ancient Dragon Skeleton Tower are, they require a stronger level of martial arts to be able to bring them into full play.
With his current level of cultivation, he has no way of unleashing the true power of Great Wilderness-level martial arts or combat weapons. It's already very good that he can fight against opponents of higher levels.
Long Yu and Ren Pingfan were sitting in the Shura Spirit Boat, moving forward at lightning speed.
"This Demonic Nightmare Mountain Range is surprisingly so vast."
Long Yu looked outside the Shura Spirit Boat with a gleam in his eyes. From the beginning to now, they have been flying for more than a day.
The most difficult thing to find is the speed of the Shura Spirit Boat. In more than a day, it can fly from one end of Tianyu Island to the other, but in the Demon Nightmare Mountains, it has not even flown half the distance.
It can be seen how big the entire Shenwu world is. This is only a very small part of the territory within Shura County.
And Shura County is just a county of the Tianqin Dynasty...
"We're almost there. The Nightmare Legion's defense line almost ends here. Further ahead is a very dangerous buffer zone."
Ren Pingfan narrowed his eyes and said, "In this buffer zone, there are adventurers from Shura County and martial artists from Guixie County. Even people from Shura County may attack you, so I will let you go here. Of course, martial artists from the Divine Power Secret Realm rarely appear in this buffer zone, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Um."
Long Yu nodded, and then Ren Pingfan controlled the Shura Spirit Boat and descended downwards.
"It's better to keep this Shura Spirit Boat with you."
Ren Pingfan said, "This rune is for you. If you want to come back, use your profound energy to activate this rune. I will sense your location and come to pick you up. Of course, don't give me a signal in the depths of Guixie County. Haha, your range of activities should not exceed this Demon Nightmare Mountains."
"Um."
Long Yu nodded again to show that he understood.
"In that case, I will leave first. I will stay in a nearby Nightmare Legion camp for the time being. If there are any major discoveries or serious dangers, you can send a message and I will bring people to help."
Ren Pingfan put away the Shura Spirit Boat and threw the palm-sized model to Long Yu.
After seeing Long Yu throw it into his storage space, Ren Pingfan said goodbye to Long Yu.
After the fat man left, Long Yu looked around and found that he was in an extremely dense forest. Under the moonlight, it looked a little eerie and spooky, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"It is said that the entire Guixie County is shrouded in ghost energy, and even the part of the Demon Nightmare Mountains in Guixie County is invaded by ghost energy."
Long Yu frowned, without thinking too much, and began to pace forward.
He did not use the hidden word magic text to move forward in stealth, because using the power of the magic text would consume his mental energy. If it was consumed too much, he would become dizzy and his combat effectiveness would drop sharply.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Long Yu would not be able to use the hidden word magic text to speed up his journey.
The ghostly aura in the dense forest might make some people very uncomfortable, but for Long Yu, it was not too uncomfortable.
"The Nine Netherworld Qi has a restraining effect on this kind of ghost energy."
Long Yu soon discovered this and felt relieved.
He didn't have a clear goal for this trip. The simplest thing was to find a few martial artists from Guixie County and kill them first. However, even this didn't seem easy.
Long Yu ran in the forest at a very fast speed. Not long after, he found that there were many people moving around nearby. Those people were martial artists from Shura County, or patrol personnel from Shura County's Demon Nightmare Corps, preventing the invasion of people from Guixie County.
In this buffer zone, it is possible to encounter people from Guixie County at any time, so Long Yu had to be careful.
However, Long Yu didn't think much about the people from Shura County.
Ren Pingfan and Huo Yuanbai both said that the identities of the martial artists from Guixie County could be known at a glance, and there was no way they would be mistaken, because the martial artists from Guixie County had comprehended either the divine texts of shadow attributes, or the spooky laws of heaven and earth, and their entire bodies were eerie.
Long Yu walked through the dense forest, his mind focused as never before.
After running for about a hundred miles, Long Yu finally discovered that the ghost energy around him was becoming more and more dense, and it seemed that he was getting closer to the Guixie County.
Just at this moment, suddenly a strong wind blew down from above his head, as if trying to kill him on the spot!
"Silver Edge Lock!"
Without thinking, Long Yu raised his hand to activate the Silver Edge Lock, a top-grade Earth-level combat weapon. A silver light curtain barrier flashed and immediately blocked the strong wind.
Long Yu raised his head and saw a sinister martial artist in a gray robe, who was attacking him from above.
The martial artist from Guixie County!
Long Yu's pupils contracted. This martial artist from Guixie County was truly extremely strange. Not only was Long Yu unable to sense his presence, but he couldn't even see through his martial arts realm!
However, judging from the fact that the opponent's sneak attack was blocked by the Silver Edge Lock, this person definitely did not step into the secret realm of magical powers, which made Long Yu feel slightly relieved.
"Hehehe..."
The gray-robed Ghost Evil County martial artist chuckled sinisterly, and then his entire body suddenly turned into a puff of gray smoke and disappeared in front of Long Yu.
"It is actually a divine text power similar to the Hidden Word Divine Text. With such power, no wonder it dares to run rampant in such a place..."
Long Yu became alert. The other party had set up an ambush here. They must want to kill the Shura County martial artist who came here, and then rob him of his weapons, elixirs and other treasures.
If Long Yu had understood the power of the light divine rune of the white-robed martial artist who had surrounded and killed him before, he should have been able to find the other party. Unfortunately, Long Yu was unable to do so now.
When there are people like him who have comprehended the power of hidden characters, he has no way of finding the other person, especially when the other person has no intention of killing him!
"No killing intention, does this person not want to kill me?"
Long Yu's heartbeat quickened slightly, not knowing what the other party was trying to do.
Since he couldn't find any trace of the other party, Long Yu continued to move forward. Suddenly, his figure flashed, the hidden word magic text was performed, and he disappeared directly from the dense forest.
"What bad luck! I never thought this kid could comprehend such divine power..."
After Long Yu disappeared, the gray-robed Ghost Demon County martial artist quietly appeared in the dark, his face gloomy: "The reward that was about to be obtained has been lost just like that..."
No one knows what the reward he is talking about is, but it is conceivable that it is definitely related to Long Yu's identity.
Long Yu could never have imagined that he had been targeted by someone even though it was his first time to come to Guixie County!
After performing the invisibility spell, Long Yu walked around the area twice but did not see the gray-robed martial artist appear. He could only continue to hide his body and move forward.
If all the martial artists in Guixie County are like this, it would not be so easy to kill a few of them.
When Long Yu used the Hidden Word Divine Text, even a martial artist in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm could not easily detect it, not to mention that if a martial artist in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm used a power similar to the Hidden Word Divine Text, Long Yu would have no way to find the other party at all.
This cast a shadow over Long Yu's heart. It seemed that this operation was definitely not as easy as he had imagined.
"The martial artists from Guixie County planted the seeds of hell in Liu Yuan's father Liu Qing, and wanted to use this despicable method to control all the martial artists on Tianyu Island. It can be seen that the martial artists from Guixie County are probably mostly evil people. For such people, even if they are stupid, it's no big deal..."
Long Yu thought about it and immediately decided that the next time he met a martial artist from Guixie County, he would kill him on the spot.
It wasn't long before his chance came.
When he approached a river in the forest, he heard two martial artists talking in a sinister voice, which made Long Yu hide aside cleverly.
As for the content of their conversation, Long Yu suddenly discovered that it was actually related to himself!
"That kid called Shan Gui should have already come near us. If I'm lucky enough to catch him, I'll be rich, hehe."
One of them said with a sinister smile.
"Don't think too highly of yourself. There are at least eight hundred people who want to catch that guy. Why don't we work together? Maybe we can get the reward."
The other person said calmly.
"Cooperate with you? You are of no use to me. Since you didn't see that guy, I will continue to move forward and look for him."
The sinister man rejected the other party's proposal of cooperation, shook his head and was about to leave.
Long Yu hid aside with a very gloomy expression. He didn't expect that after just a short while here, the martial artists from Guixie County had spread the news of his coming.
The most important thing is, if you catch him, you will get a reward!
There is definitely someone targeting him in secret!
The most likely person is someone from the Zou family in Shura County. If it weren’t for the people from Shura County reporting the news, how could the people from Guixie County know that he had come here
What's more, he, Long Yu, has no grudges against the people of Guixie County. If it weren't for the Zou family, why would the people of Guixie County target him like this
"So, the Zou family, or the deputy general Zou Li, and the martial artists of Guixie County actually had secret communications?"
This discovery did not make Long Yu unhappy, but rather made him happy.
Because he finally had an executable goal - if he could find evidence of communication between Deputy General Zou Li and the martial artists of Guixie County, wouldn't it be possible to prove that Deputy General Zou Li was a traitor to Shura County
Deputy General Zou Li is one of the four deputy generals of the Shura County Demon Nightmare Legion. If he can be caught, it will be a great achievement no matter what!
However, it is extremely difficult to accomplish this task. Now Long Yu's identity and whereabouts have been roughly exposed. If he continues to act here, he will be in danger!
