Chapter 321
321 What’s the price of priceless?
“Ah, Yingluo.”
“En, Yingluo.”
“Ah, Yingluo.”
“En, Yingluo.”
”
“What?”
……
In the dark Mountain where day and night were unknown, strange moans, cries, and laughter echoed for a long time. As long as a seed of fear was born in a person’s heart, it would be infinitely magnified until it was crushed.
Before they left, the elders in the clan had already warned her about this. Thus, Mu Lan had to constantly guard her state of mind and not feel the slightest fear.
She kept reminding herself that as long as she was not afraid, the ghosts here were just ordinary evil spirits and were not invincible.
The rustling sounds behind her never stopped. Coupled with the strange moans, Mu Lan knew that she was being followed by ghosts.
It was trying to make him afraid.
But it was destined to be disappointed.
Halfway through the forest, Mu Lan suddenly scuttled forward and crouched in the bushes, ignoring the sharp branches that cut her skin.
Before entering the horror Valley, all nine of them had studied a lot about ghosts. She knew that ghosts were not omniscient. It was able to lock onto him because he had released something.
Thus, she instantly stopped, held her breath, and focused her mind. It was as if she had blended into the forest in an instant!
This was the innate talent of the people of Gaoqiao cave, and it was the key to why they were able to pass it down from the ancient times to the present day and become one of the best among the seventy-two cave barbarians. The mountain forest was their home ground.
Her wooden-blue skin was bronze in color, and her figure was not thin, but her curves were very smooth. Although the weather was very cold, she was only wearing a simple animal-patterned corset and a pair of underclothes. She was bending her long and strong legs.
It looked like a leopard that was gathering its strength to hunt.
Her eyes were also like those of a wild beast, the color of her pupils bewitching yet clear, dangerous yet alluring.
There were dark brown patterns all over her body. When she held her breath, her breath instantly merged with the surrounding trees and became one.
She lay there quietly for a long time, and the rustling around her never stopped. That thing seemed to be approaching her.
Getting closer and closer
When both parties were in the dark, the impatient one would become the prey.
Finally, the ghostly being appeared.
It seemed to be a little boy.
It was wearing old clothes, its hair was disheveled, and its skin was pale. It had floated out from the depths of the forest. His pitch-black pupils darted around as if he was looking for something. Its body was less than ten meters away from Mu Lan.
It came.
Mu Lan still did not move.
After a long time, the little boy seemed to be tired of looking. He turned around and left in another direction.
It was now!
Mu Lan’s body shot out from the bushes. With a kick of her legs, her body shot out like an arrow from a bow.
At the same time, her left hand was already holding a bone knife that was polished from white bones and engraved with talismans.
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
The bone blade sliced through the air.
But at this moment, the little boy’s hair suddenly spread out!
There was a face hidden under the hair behind his head! This face’s eyes and brows were similar to its front, but it was much more mature, having the face of an adult man. It was even more terrifying when placed on the body of this child.
Mu Lan was shocked. The bone blade was originally meant to cut the ghost’s head open, but it had now fallen into the ghost’s mouth!
Ka.
The bone blade was bitten by it!
However, in addition to Mu Lan’s own true Qi, the blade also carried a talisman refined by the elders of the clan, which had a strong restraining effect on ghosts.
With a sharp sound, white smoke came out of the ghostly creature’s mouth, and it quickly let go! It started to scream.
daddy! the child’s face in front called out.
Mu Lan didn’t hesitate at all. Taking advantage of this moment, she slashed at the ghost’s back.
“Ah, Yingluo.”
A scream was heard, but it was not from the two faces!
Behind its torn clothes, the face of an adult woman was revealed. At this time, there was a bloodstain in the middle of the woman’s face, and she was screaming.
“Mother, Zhenzhen”
The face of the child in front of him suddenly turned back, and his eyes were Scarlet! The screams of the two faces behind it seemed to have caused it to enter a berserk state.
Mu Lan did not expect it to carry an entire family at such a young age!
“Roar!”
The child’s face pounced at him, and Mu Lan slashed again.
Puchi–
The child clutched the blade tightly with both hands and was instantly burned into white smoke, but he refused to let go. The two faces on its back suddenly tore off, and with a layer of sticky skin and flesh, it bit at Mu Lan while screaming.
In a moment of desperation, Mu Lan had two choices.
He abandoned his blade and dodged the attack.
He didn’t Dodge, instead, he used all his strength to slash down.
Mu Lan naturally chose the latter! In such a battle, giving up one’s most powerful weapon was no different from death.
Chi Chi Chi-
A few streaks of blood spurted out.
The two faces bit Mu Lan’s left and right thighs and instantly became full, as if they were sucking Mu Lan’s flesh and blood!
Mu Lan’s bone blade broke through the pair of hands and landed on the child’s body.
With one slash, the ghost’s body was split open.
There was no spine or internal organs inside, only a faint white glow.
ah! The Three Faces screamed at the same time.
Mu Lan mercilessly slashed dozens of times in an instant! The words ‘spirit’,’ loyalty’, ‘report’, and’ country ‘were carved out of the thin and dry body.
Bang!
Finally, there was a loud explosion and the ghost exploded.
A small red light fell. Mu Lan staggered to catch it and put it away carefully. Then, she fell to the ground.
Blood gushed out of his legs.
Although she had only been bitten twice, the ghostly creature had a powerful ability to suck blood and flesh. In a short moment, two hideous holes appeared on Mu Lan’s legs.
“Ahehe.” Mu Lan first circulated her vital energy to stop the bleeding. Then, she dragged her body and picked up two herbs. She chewed them and applied them to her wounds.
The burning pain made her cry out in pain, and at the same time, she was disheartened. After suffering such injuries, it was likely that the battle for the son of Saint would end here, and it was even uncertain if she could leave this place alive.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from ahead.
Mu Lan was shocked.
The ghosts in the valley of horrors clearly had their own territories. Why would they come again after just killing one?
With such a strong smell of blood, it was difficult to hide it. Mu Lan picked up the bone knife and prepared to fight with her life on the line!
Hualala.
The first thing that popped out was a black face. He was wearing the color of a Daoist priest’s uniform and was carrying a bulging bag on his back.
Mu Lan raised the blade in his hand high!
Come on!
I’ll let you experience it, you evil ghost.
Gaoqiao cave did not have weak children!
But immediately after, a pale face peeked out, carrying an indescribable sense of ridicule.
That feeling …
At that moment, thousands of adjectives flashed through Mu Lan’s mind, but in the end, only two words were the most appropriate.
Handsome.
“Ah!” Mu Lan couldn’t help but moan.
The heart of Gao Qiao Dong’s daughter suddenly softened.
There was only one thought in her mind at the moment.
He was a ghost.
That’s 80% likely to be a good ghost.
“Master, this girl seems to be a human.”
The black-faced ghost was stunned. The black-faced Daoist suddenly called out. The handsome Daoist behind him looked at Mu Lan and nodded gently.
“That’s right.”
……
“My name is Mu Lan, I am a Gao Qiao Dong Clansman bi an.”
A moment later, Mu Lan shyly raised her eyes and said in a soft voice on a clean open space in the jungle.
“According to the Heluo people, they’re one of the Barbarian tribes of the seventy-two caves.”
“Hello,” he said. Li Chu gently nodded.
No matter what kind of clansmen they were, to be able to meet a human in this ghostly Valley was considered quite friendly.
“Miss Mu Lan, why did you come to this horrifying Valley?” du Lanke asked.
“This is the competition for our Gaoqiao cave’s new Saint.” Mu Lan replied,”our previous Holy Son, Qianqian.”
As she said that, the way she looked at the two of them changed. In the end, she still said, ” two days ago, he was sacrificed in the battle with your desolate wood cave. The main reason for our defeat was because he urged your Heluo general, Qin zhenghu, to send troops to help your desolate wood cave.
“This matter is a bit strange.” Li Chu guessed a little and said, ” “It’s very likely that a fiend sect’s villain is behind this, and it’s not the decision of the Imperial court of Heluo. The inside story will be revealed in the future.”
“Yes,” Du Lanke nodded. we don’t know if that bastard is the real general Qin. He gave the order without anyone’s consent. Miss mu, please don’t be prejudiced against the whole of Heluo because of this.”
Unexpectedly, Mu Lan nodded and said, ” we know. Our clan leader has sent someone to Zhaoge city to report the situation of the southern border to your Emperor. That general Qin’s actions in the valley of horrors were extremely shocking!”
“This place is very familiar to us people of Gaoqiao cave. He thought that those operations were very secretive, but in fact, they were all discovered by us.”
“So you were the ones who sent the news about Xuanji chaoge.” Li Chu understood.
it’s just that our Saint has been sacrificed. We need to quickly choose a new Saint. Mu Lan continued, ” the way our race selects Holy Sons is to send the most outstanding young people of the new generation into this terrifying Valley. The one who can walk out alive and bring out the most blood demon crystals will be the new Holy Son.
“Oh,” that’s pretty wild, ” du Lanke exclaimed. did you come here to train your courage? ”
you can also say that the biggest trick for Yingying to enter the valley of horrors is to forget her fear. Mu Lan said,”the elders of our tribe all say that there are demons here that specialize in devouring human fear. That’s why they’re trying to make people feel fear.” The more afraid you were, the stronger it would be. And their power will condense into blood demon crystals.”
blood magic crystal Pixiu. Li Chu noticed the word she had mentioned twice. what’s that? ”
“It’s the power essence of all the ghosts in the horror Valley. I don’t know the exact source, but the stronger the ghost, the purer the blood demon crystal. These blood demon crystals can be transformed into power of inheritance on our clan’s altar, so they’re very precious.”
Mu Lan carefully took out a few small, fine red blood crystals and showed them to them as if they were treasures. She didn’t dare to bring them too close, as if she was afraid that they would take them away.
Li Chu and du Lanke both fell silent when they saw the blood Crystal in her hand.
“The power it contains is very shocking and rare, right?” Mu Lan thought that they were shocked and said, ” “If you have the chance to kill the ghosts in this Valley, you can also get it.”
“Miss Mu Lan,” “You said that this Kasaya is very precious?” Li Chu asked.
“Yup,” Mu Lan nodded. it’s priceless to our race.
“What does priceless mean?” Li Chu suddenly asked.
“Ah?” Mulan was stunned.
Did all the men in Heluo talk like this?
it’s like if someone wants to sell this thing and you guys spend money to buy a Kasaya, ” Li Chu said seriously, ” “What’s the approximate price?”
“Ha.” Mu Lan laughed, ” how is that possible? it’s such a rare thing, Yingluo.
She suddenly stopped talking.
At Li Chu’s signal, dulanke opened the bag on his back, revealing a large pile of dazzling, pure blood magic crystals.
Among them, the big ones were the size of a fist, while the small ones were generally the size of a quail’s egg. They were glistening in the dim light.
In comparison, the diamonds in Mu Lan’s hands suddenly became worthless.
