The Tao comes to all heavens: from the beginning of the Wilderness Period

Chapter 7
The Liyuan Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, and its main peak is over ten thousand feet high. It is shrouded in haze and mist from the mountainside up.

The Blackwater Tribe is located southeast of Liyuan Mountain, [-] miles away from Licheng.It got its name because there is a black water swamp on the north side of the tribe at the border with the Liyuan Mountains.The Blackwater Tribe has been established for nearly a thousand years, and it has long been affiliated with the Zhang Tribe and has paid tribute to it every year.

There are houses and corridors built among the crevices of the mountains and rocks, all of which were built by the tribal people with great efforts.On the large flat land in the distance, there is a large walled city, which is the headquarters of the Blackwater Tribe.Most of the tens of thousands of people in the tribe are concentrated in this Blackwater Village.

At this moment, there are thousands of households and thousands of doors in the six streets and three lanes of Heishui Village, and many pedestrians are coming and going.Outside the stronghold, several people rode in on Chasing the Wind Horse and stopped in a square made of solid rocks.These people are all warriors of the Blackwater Tribe.

After a few people took a short rest, they immediately got up and walked to a stone house.At this time, a lean middle-aged man wearing animal skins was waiting there. The man asked expectantly: "How is the situation?"

The leader of the soldiers replied readily: "This time I went to Licheng, several things have been settled. The young master also successfully passed the examination, and will practice in Licheng Martial Hall from now on."

The middle-aged man wearing animal skins breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound. He clapped his hands with his fists and said excitedly: "Great, you and I are all heroes of the tribe. Come in quickly, the leader has been waiting for a long time."

Inside the stone house, a burly old man wearing a thick feather robe was pacing back and forth.At this time, he heard a conversation coming from the corridor outside, and welcomed a few people in.After the ceremony, several tribal warriors immediately reported to him in detail the story of their trip out of the city.

The burly old man showed a smile of joy, and then asked in a deep voice: "I wonder how much the Zhang clan is willing to pay for that batch of goods?"

The leader of the tribal warrior reported back: "I didn't see anyone in power from the Zhang family during this trip. I only met with two branch leaders. They were willing to pay six thousand spirit shells."

The old man nodded with satisfaction, and then smiled and said: "You did a good job in this matter. I have already ordered you to prepare a feast for you later."

At this time, another tribe warrior said: "Chief, this time we heard some nobles mention it in Licheng. It seems that the Zhang tribe has a peerless genius. He is less than 17 years old, and his realm exceeds that of many innate beings. It's really amazing." terror."

The old man was also shocked when he heard this, and then said with emotion: "More than 30 years ago, in the battle of Taimei Mountain, the Zhang clan defeated the Gaoliang clan, forcing the Gaoliang clan to dare not go north again in recent years. Now that such a genius has been born, there is really a chance of prosperity. Elephant!"

The Gaoliang clan is a tribe that emerged thousands of miles away in the south more than a thousand years ago. There are also monks from the Zifu in the clan. Over the years, there have been frequent battles with the Zhang clan from Licheng.But after all, the Zhang family has a profound foundation, and has always had the upper hand in the confrontation with the Gao Liang family.

"I remember that I also participated in the Battle of Taimei Mountain and fought against more than one innate being, but now I am old and decrepit. I only hope that my little grandson can gain something in the Licheng Martial Palace, and that he will have a breakthrough in the innate being in the future. Greater certainty." The old leader sighed sadly.

A few people were talking when they suddenly heard a faint roar coming from outside.The old leader looked slightly condensed and hurriedly walked out to check.

When a few people arrived at the square outside, they saw a little black shadow emerging from the end of the sky in the distance. They were so densely packed that they looked like hundreds or even thousands.

"Could this be the white-feathered demon bird under the command of the great white-feathered demon in the east of Liyuan Mountain?" The old leader said in horror, "This great demon was chased by several masters of the Zhang clan back then and had no way to escape. Now it has escaped into the mountains. How dare you offend my Blackwater Tribe?"

In just ten breaths, demonic birds with white feathers, red eyes, thick beaks and strong claws were seen hovering over the Blackwater City Walled City, with a strong and fierce aura all over their bodies.

Seeing such a dangerous scene, the old and weak women and children in the tribe hurriedly hid in pre-drilled underground caves without waiting for the old leader's order.At the same time, hundreds of warriors from the tribe were waiting for the battle as quickly as possible, each holding a spear and a crossbow.It's just that these soldiers are extremely worried at the moment. Only some of them are wearing battle armor, and even fewer can display their acquired perfect combat power. How can they not feel fear?

At this time, the largest monster bird in the lead suddenly let out a sharp and urgent cry. The roar came like a tide and almost tore the eardrums of the tribal warriors.Among the tribesmen who hid underground, many were immediately shocked and bled from their orifices, while the rest were so frightened that they hugged their heads and huddled up, trembling.

The monster bird fell from the sky and instantly transformed into a gloomy-looking middle-aged scribe. He briefly looked at the self-reliant Blackwater Tribe warriors in the village, then glanced at the old leader and said disdainfully: "Little old man , you are no match for me, you will die with your hands tied, I will leave your body intact."

The old leader's eyes were about to burst, and he said angrily: "White Feather Great Demon, you dare to massacre our Blackwater Tribe today, aren't you afraid that the masters of the Zhang family from Licheng will kill all your descendants?"

Seeing his gesture, the White Feather Demon stepped forward to fight with him, and immediately shouted upwards: "Children, fight me to the death."

The group of demonic birds immediately let out a hoarse roar and pounced down quickly.Even though there are constant arrows fired by warriors in the air, it is difficult to cause any harm to the flock of demonic birds.

In an instant, the whole village was littered with corpses. Many tribesmen were dragged out of underground stone caves by monster birds and pecked to death. Corpses with broken arms fell everywhere. The scene was extremely miserable.

……

After leaving the city, Zhang Heng walked out of the secret cultivation room and felt that the sky was clear and the air was clear and extremely comfortable.He has been practicing in seclusion for more than twenty days this time, and he finally succeeded in practicing the Qi Flow to the innate perfection two and a half days ago, and the Nine Heavens of Chiming is not far from the fifth level.

At this time, the Yuan liquid given by the clan leader Zhang Changping has only been refined less than half. If he continues to practice, it will not be difficult to open the Zi Mansion in one go.But he is not in a hurry to do so. He has no foundation in refining Qi Flow in the past. If he is still eager to achieve success, it is hard to say that it will not affect his future practice.

Although his current level is high, he still lacks practical training.In addition, he has initially mastered several sword cultivation methods recorded in Jiuye Zhenren's supplement, but has no place to try them out.This time when I came out of seclusion, I was very restless and wanted to go out for some experience.Of course, he remembered that the elder of the Qianshan clan had previously promised that if he cultivated to the realm of innate perfection, he would be given a sum of clan contribution points as a gift.Currently, he only has one magic weapon, the Silver Lin Sword, and it is really difficult to control it without using the power of his spiritual thoughts.What's more, there are many powerful sword cultivation techniques that are difficult to perform with just one sword.At this time, he was already thinking about what kind of divine sword he could exchange these contribution points for.

The clan leader had already issued an order allowing Zhang Heng to enter and exit the clan manor at will.Therefore, he did not encounter any obstruction along the way and went straight to the Qianshan tribe's old residence to pay a visit.However, when they arrived here, they were told by the guards in front of the door that the Qianshan clan elder seemed to have something important to do a few hours ago and had left in a hurry.

Zhang Heng suddenly felt helpless. He couldn't launch a search for spiritual thoughts wantonly, so he had to give up.

Just as he was about to return, he suddenly saw a majestic man walking out of the palace.This man is broad-shouldered and round-waisted, with a dark python belt wrapped around his waist and a red cloak behind him.She glanced at him a few times and asked in a low voice: "That boy over there, are you Zhang Heng? That old boy Zhang Qianshan is just trying to bluff me, with his thin skin and tender flesh."

Zhang Heng heard the sound and looked around, only to feel that there was a faint black smoke coming out of this man's body. After thinking about it for a moment, he immediately made some guesses about his origin. He should be the legendary spiritual beast "Strong Barbarian Bull" next to the Qianshan clan elder. change.

He deliberately asked: "I wonder what your dear brother's name is? What position does he hold in the clan?"

The big man was stunned after hearing this, and then said proudly: "I am your Grandpa Niu."

After finishing speaking, he looked hesitant and said angrily: "Old man Qianshan once told me that if you come here, let me take you to the clan treasure house. Please do it now."

Zhang Heng replied happily: "Then you'll have a hard time."

After entering the second floor of the treasure house, the big man looked at Zhang Heng with vigilance and threatened: "Boy, you only have [-] quotas, so don't try to cheat, otherwise don't blame Grandpa Niu for my ruthlessness."

Zhang Heng ignored him and just looked towards the third floor of the treasure house with a little pity. "It's a pity that only the clan elders have the authority to open the third level, but today I don't have the opportunity to go in and take a look." However, he just thought about it in his mind. With only [-] contribution points, he could exchange for at most two or three of the worst items. Excellent magic weapon.

It didn't take long for Zhang Heng to select the treasure and consume all the [-] contribution points in his name.Correspondingly, the storage ring on his body also contained dozens of magic swords, many array flags, talismans, and so on.Naturally, these magic weapons can only be called unqualified magic weapons.

Seeing that he had squandered so many contribution points at once, the big man was stunned for a moment, and he cursed in his heart: "Old Niu, I have been working for the tribe for so long, and I haven't accumulated so many contribution points. This kid What a prodigal. Bah!"

Therefore, after leaving the treasure house, he still had no good expression and said rudely: "Boy, you took the treasure too, so get out of here. If I know that you are doing evil with the tribe's treasure, I will let you have a taste of it." Grandpa, are my horns sharp?"

"Who do you want to show your horns to?" At this time, someone above asked leisurely.

"Ah, it turns out that Mr. Qianshan is back. I was just joking, old cow, with my good brother Zhang Heng." The bully man immediately said flatteringly upon hearing the sound.

The Qianshan clan elder slowly fell from the sky, and he didn't know if it was Zhang Heng's misunderstanding, but he seemed to see a trace of tiredness on the clan elder's face.

"Junior has met the clan elder." Zhang Heng immediately bowed.The Qianshan people treated him as if they were their own, and he was still full of respect for them in his heart.

The Qianshan tribe elder forced a smile, and then said: "Since you are here, go to my palace and have some tea before leaving."

Zhang Heng is capable of everything.So the old man, the young man and the cow returned to the old residence of the Qianshan tribe.

In the hall, smoke curled up from the copper incense burner.After Zhang Heng sat down, a waiter served him hot tea.

At this time, the Qianshan tribe elder opened his mouth and boasted: "I see that your aura is completely flawless. It seems that this breakthrough in refining Qi has been completely successful."

"It's just that this junior feels that he still lacks some training, so he plans to go out to practice in the past few days." Zhang Heng said honestly.

"Absolutely not." Unexpectedly, the elder of the Qianshan clan refused firmly when he heard this.

Zhang Heng was slightly puzzled and asked, "But why?"

The Qianshan tribe elder frowned and pondered for a long time before he solemnly said: "I won't hide it from you. In the past two days, more than ten tribes have been wiped out on the east and west sides of the city where I left. It was all caused by the big demon. Several of them No one from this tribe, including the innate creatures, survived."

"I hate that General Kai Ting of the Great Xia garrison is determined not to send troops to help me, the Zhang family, to quell the demonic calamity. He also doesn't think about it. If something happens deep in Yuan Mountain, even if those big demons don't dare to attack the Great Xia city, they will How can we end up with a good outcome?" The voice of the Qianshan clan elder was full of indignation.
