Chapter 629

The next day, Zhang Xiaohua opened his eyes. The first thing he did was to release his Divine Sense to see what had happened outside. However, after scanning for a long time, he found that those who were sleeping were still sleeping, and those who were patrolling were still patrolling. There was nothing different from last night.

"Eh?" Zhang Xiaohua thought to herself, "Am I wrong?"

"Yes, you are right. As long as everyone is safe, isn't it better than anything else?"

She removed the inhibition at the entrance of the cave and quietly walked out of the cave. She removed the inhibition at the entrances of other people's caves as well. Then she walked out of the cave and came to an open space. Ignoring the stares of the patrolling disciples, she began to practice her Big Dipper Magical Fist.

Although Zhang Xiaohua's Big Dipper Magical Fist was a combination of hardness and softness, she was still despised by the disciples of Wuming Hall. Looking from afar, they curled their lips slightly. This boxing skill was obviously an external Cultivation Method and had nothing to do with internal strength. How could it catch the attention of the outer core disciples who often practiced internal strength?

Moreover, there were only so many moves in a set of boxing skill. She practiced it over and over again. After practicing it for two or three times, the disciples of Wuming Hall were no longer interested in her. Even Lu Lihong, who got up later, just glanced at her for a while, shook his head, and did his own morning lesson.

When the sun rose, all the disciples stood up and fed the horses that pulled the carriages, packed up their things, and the Pill Tower Hall's carriages were about to set out again.

Senior Brother Wang, who was poisoned yesterday, seemed to have recovered after a night's rest. But his face was still a little pale. Lu Chaoxian, who was in the carriage, turned back from time to time to ask Zhang Xiaohua who he won the "Detoxification Pill" from. Seeing it was better than hearing it a hundred times. The detoxification effect was really good.

Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "I already said yesterday that I didn't get the pill by myself. Senior Brother Bai Huan and other senior brothers helped me. There are so many disciples on Tianmu Peak. How could I know who won?"

Lu Chaoxian thought about it and found it was true. He also knew that some pills used by inner core disciples were often spread out in the Pill-Opening Hall. Some were often mistaken by the disciples of Pill-Opening Hall and treated as ordinary pills. The pill that saved Senior Brother Wang yesterday might belong to this category.

Then, he stopped asking.

Not long after, the car turned into a mountain road and gradually climbed up along the winding path.

Zhang Xiaohua sat in the car and looked at the scenery outside the window. She asked casually, "Senior Brother Lu, what's the name of this mountain?"

Lu Chaoxian was also used to Zhang Xiaohua's ignorance, so he said, "This is Hancui Ridge, which should be connected to the Orchid Mountain Range. This section stretches for hundreds of miles, and both sides are not easy to pass through. We can only go over the mountain from here."

Then, he cracked the whip in his hand and urged the carriage to avoid a large rock. He continued, "Don't underestimate this Cui Mountain Range just because it's not high, but the area it covers is not small. In addition, the mountain path is difficult to traverse. Just crossing the mountain range alone will take a day. However, this is the last part of the journey. After crossing the mountain range, we will reach the Strange Birch Forest."

"Oh, using three or four days to reach the Strange Birch Forest is considered fast. I thought it would take at least five or six days."

Lu Chaoxian looked at the continuous mountain range and said, "The journey to the Strange Birch Forest is considered the shortest. I heard from the seniors in the hall that three hundred years ago, our Pill Expanding Hall's herbs were located in the northeast. I think it was called the Eagle Stream Gorge. It takes ten days to go there and twenty days to go back and forth. We only have less than ten days left to pick herbs.

Moreover, since the journey is longer, we will encounter more dangers. Compared to the seniors, we are much more fortunate. "

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and smiled, "What about the disciples of Wuming Hall?

Did they change the place where they train? "

"This …" Lu Chaoxian scratched his head and said, "I don't know. When the outer disciples send us to the Strange Birch Forest, they will go to the place where they train. When we finish picking herbs, they will also finish their training and return to the Strange Birch Forest to join us. As for where they will train, how do we know?"

Zhang Xiaohua was just curious. Since Lu Chaoxian didn't know, she didn't ask anymore. She closed her eyes and sat in the carriage to comprehend the array.

Although the mountain path in the Cui Mountain Range was rugged and often bumpy, and there were many stones on the road, it was really not easy to walk. The carriage traveled for half a day and the sun was already high up in the sky. Looking back, they didn't seem to have gone far from the place where they started.

Although the mountain path was difficult to walk on, the disciples walked happily. This place was not like the Orchid Prairie, nor was it like the Orchid Rainforest. There were no fierce beasts here. Occasionally, there were several fierce vultures and eagles, but they just hovered above their heads for a few times, and then spread their wings and flew away. There was no sign of difficulty.

The disciples of the Pill Tower Hall and Wuming Hall already knew that this place was safe, so they were very relaxed. A few bold ones even opened their voices and sang a folk song. The leading disciple wanted to control them, but when he thought of the previous days' fright, he gave up the idea and squinted his eyes to appreciate it.

After a while, it was noon, and the sun gradually became a little fierce.

At this time, the carriages traveled to a real canyon. The canyon was very narrow, and could only accommodate two carriages side by side. The disciples of Wuming Hall had to form a pair with the Pill Tower Hall's carriages, and one horse and one carriage alternately moved forward.

When Zhang Xiaohua's last carriage entered the canyon, the sun just reached the top of everyone's head. Zhang Xiaohua walked out of the carriage and looked up at the sky above her head. There was only a line of sky left, and there were towering mountain walls on both sides. She couldn't help but sigh, "Senior Brother Lu, this canyon is very steep. It is really a line of sky."

"Huh?

Junior Brother Ren doesn't know anything, does he?

How did he know the name 'Line of Sky'? "

Lu Chaoxian was very surprised.

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and was about to answer. Suddenly, there was a sudden shock in her heart, and she blurted out, "Senior Brother Lu, be careful. This canyon is so steep, if …"

Before this "if" came out, there was a burst of "crashing" sound in front of them, followed by the sound of rocks falling to the ground, the sound of rocks smashing the carriages, followed by the neighing of horses and the screams of injured disciples.

Looking up, at the top of the Line of Sky canyon, there were flickering figures. Huge rocks rolled down from the top of the canyon, and the soil was raised high.

Zhang Xiaohua's face was shocked. The canyon's terrain was special. It was very easy to fall rocks from a high place, but it was not easy for people to dodge in the canyon, especially so many disciples, carriages, and horses. They could only watch as they were smashed to death.

Fortunately, no matter whether it was the disciples of the Pill Expanding Hall, they were all selected. Even if their martial arts were far inferior to the outer disciples, it was not too difficult to dodge the falling rocks. At the beginning, a few disciples were accidentally killed, and then they began to jump to avoid the falling rocks.

However, the mountain path in the canyon was narrow. Even if their skills were extraordinary, after all, the space to move was limited. It was fine for a short period of time, but as time went by, it was difficult to escape the misfortune. Therefore, the disciples in front quickly rushed out of the canyon.

If the disciples of the Pill Expanding Hall were like this, needless to say, the outer disciples of the Wuming Hall were even more so. Seeing that the situation was critical, and the carriages were destroyed, blocking the way forward, they immediately dismounted their horses, jumped up, and used their Lightness Skill to rush out.

At this time, there were a few loud "Boom" sounds, and several huge rocks fell from a high place in front of the canyon, blocking the way out. Seeing this, everyone turned pale with fright. The disciples of the Wuming Hall were fine, and they could use their Lightness Skill to get out, but the disciples of the Pill Expanding Hall were as pale as ashes.

The disciples who were walking in front of the canyon ran forward, and the disciples who were walking at the back naturally had to quickly retreat out of the canyon. Needless to say, how could the carriages be freely turned around in a short time?

Only the disciples jumped off the carriages and ran desperately to the back.

The outer disciples at the back, such as Lu Lihong, saw the sudden tragedy in front of them. At first, they were shocked, but then they came to their senses. Looking at the steep stone walls around them, they knew that they did not have superior Lightness Skill to climb to the top of the mountain, so they immediately retreated from the canyon, and each of them looked for a place to climb up, and used their Lightness Skill to go up the mountain.

Zhang Xiaohua had just reminded Lu Chaoxian to be careful, as the falling rocks were in front of them. He knew that the terrain of the canyon was dangerous, so he did not dare to delay. He was the last carriage, and there were two outer disciples behind him. He immediately jumped off from the back of the carriage and quickly ran out of the canyon. At this time, the two outer disciples were still stunned at what was happening in front of them, and did not have time to pay attention to him.

Zhang Xiaohua came out of the canyon, dodged to one side, and immediately used the Imperial Wind Technique to fly straight to the top of the mountain. When the outer disciples ran out of the canyon and looked up, he had already made an incantation and escaped into the mountain. Not long after, he appeared on the top of the mountain.

He saw that on the top of the mountain, there were more than ten things that looked like monkeys and humans. A human-faced monkey was jumping up and down and screaming, and they were working together to push down the rocks.

When Zhang Xiaohua came up, they had just pushed down a few huge rocks and were about to go to Zhang Xiaohua. The place where Zhang Xiaohua came up was the end of the canyon, where there were also several huge rocks.

Seeing the human-faced monkey, Zhang Xiaohua immediately understood that this was the survivor of the human-faced monkeys that were killed by the disciples of Wuming Hall yesterday. And this human-faced monkey thing that looked twice as tall as himself must be the helpers of the human-faced monkeys for revenge. This should be the reason why he was vigilant last night.

"Alas, this retribution came too fast."

Zhang Xiaohua sighed and looked at the rocks next to him. If they really pushed the rocks down, the casualties of the outer sect disciples would not be too great. Basically, none of the disciples of the Pill Sprouting Hall would be able to make it out of this place alive.

Moreover, the canyon was surrounded by steep rocks. It was extremely difficult to climb up using qinggong. By the time the outer sect disciples found a suitable place, the mountain rocks would have been pushed down. Perhaps the human-faced monkey and the others would have already clapped their claws and succeeded in their revenge.
