Chapter 574 - 574 Enter
574 Enter
Su Xiaolu touched her forehead. So that was it.
She was also surprised that a few pastries could have such a huge effect.
After Su Xiaolu was full, she did not feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, she was very comfortable and in her best state.
At night, Su Chong came to see her. Seeing that she was fine, he left.
For the next three days, Su Xiaolu and Old Wu practiced intensely. They only rested for two to four hours a day.
It was not until the night before they were going into the mountains that they could rest well.
The 15th of July was the day they would enter the mountains.
Early in the morning, Su Xiaolu and the two Masters packed their things and went to the gathering place.
When Su Xiaolu and her masters arrived, there was already a large group of people gathered. There were about fifty to sixty of them. Many people were chatting and looked quite happy.
Someone said that they had once challenged a certain expert.
Others said that they had killed a big tiger or bear.
In any case, they were just showing off their glorious deeds. There were also people wearing straw hats, hugging their swords with their arms crossed, and holding some grass in their mouths. They stood there very coldly.
Su Chong wore armor and helped Zhou Heng arrange the people beside him.
Liu Zijin was also there. Even he had a sword and food since no one knew what would happen after entering the mountain. Everyone had to be prepared to move independently.
There were guards distributing supplies, and Su Xiaolu and her masters also received a share. Su Xiaolu carried them on her back and the group set off.
Zhou Heng rode his horse and led the way.
It was only an hour’s journey from the fog.
Many people with good Qinggong felt that they were walking too slowly. They flew past the forest and flew in front. The branches swayed, and many birds were frightened away.
Old Wu snorted coldly. “Useless.”
Su Xiaolu held Old Wu’s arm and smiled. “Master, are you tired?”
Speaking of which, the old man was already old. She did not know if he could take it.
“This is nothing. I’m not that weak, am I?”
He was not so old that he could not walk.
As they approached the fog, Su Xiaolu saw that those who had left first were also waiting. Layers of soldiers were guarding outside.
Su Xiaolu felt that it was unbelievable. The fog should have turned from light to thick gradually, but the fog here was clearly separated. The thick fog and the clear forest were just one palm apart. Within one palm was the territory of the fog, and she could not see anything inside. Outside the palm, the forest was clean. Under the sunlight, there was nowhere to hide.
Zhou Heng’s expression darkened as he ordered in a low voice, “Rest here. In an hour, everyone will enter the fog together.”
They needed to rest for an hour because Zhou Heng wanted everyone to be in the best condition.
After resting and eating some food, an hour passed quickly.
Afraid that the fog would be poisonous, they had to take the antidote pills in advance. Before entering, he even gave everyone a rope to help them walk.
Zhou Heng was very well-prepared. He looked at the sky and saw that it was noon. He led the horse into the fog.
In the fog, one could only see the figure in front of them. One would not be able to see any further than that.
Everyone took every step cautiously.
“It’s so comfortable to breathe in here. There’s so much spiritual energy here.”
Someone muttered, then took deep breaths.
The spiritual energy in the fog was indeed very abundant.
Su Xiaolu walked carefully.
However, the terrain was flat and windless. She could not sense any danger.
As the fog became thinner, she saw layers of mountains and dense forests that reached into the clouds.
It was unknown what kind of bird was flying in the sky.
Everyone was stunned. This world was unfamiliar to everyone.
“Oh my god, what kind of godly place is this? I feel light-headed just by taking a breath, as if I’m about to become an Immortal.”
Someone exclaimed. Smelling such rich spiritual energy, everyone took a deep breath.
“It’s such a good place. I’m afraid the people from before weren’t willing to leave after entering.”
Someone joked that in such a godly place, they were all people who wanted to become Immortals, so how could they bear to leave after coming here? Therefore, it made sense why the people who came here previously did not leave.
“Your Majesty, I suggest entering the forest.”
Liu Zijin walked to Zhou Heng’s side and suggested.
There didn’t seem to be any danger. Since they had entered, they had to enter the forest to take a look.
Everyone agreed with Liu Zijin’s words. Some people could not wait to go in and take a look.
Zhou Heng waved his hand, and a man in black stepped forward. He gave a few instructions, and the man in black returned to the fog.
When everyone saw this, they did not say anything. They only thought that Zhou Heng was very cautious. This magical land was right in front of them and would not disappear. However, it was uncertain if they could return.
Fortunately, the man in black returned not long after. He reported the situation to Zhou Heng. They could return. This was the entrance and also the exit.
Those who came in but did not go out might really want to cultivate here.
“Your Majesty, will you keep your word?”
At this moment, someone could not suppress his excitement and looked at Zhou Heng with a burning gaze.
This was a treasure trove. They would probably be able to make a fortune if they fished out some treasures. Zhou Heng had previously said that the number of treasures they could obtain after entering depended on their own abilities. If these words still counted, they were really going to make a fortune.
Zhou Heng nodded lightly and said, “I’ll keep my word. If any of you want to leave now, I have no complaints. However, you left willingly and didn’t stay by my side. If anything happens to you, I won’t take responsibility.”
With that, Zhou Heng turned to look at Liu Zijin. “Zijin, remove the name of the people who are leaving.”
Most of these people were from the martial world and were not controlled by others. Zhou Heng had never thought of really controlling them.
Currently, everything looked calm. There were too many of them. Under such circumstances, it was indeed better to split up.
After all, everyone was together. If they encountered a treasure, it was inevitable that they would fight over it. With so many people, it was not good to split it.
As soon as Zhou Heng said this, several groups of people immediately bowed respectfully to Zhou Heng and said their names before leaving.
Not long after, more than 40 people left.
There were only a few people who had been summoned and stayed behind.
Zhou Heng’s expression was calm. He looked in the distance with determination and said in a low voice, “Enter the mountain.”
After walking a very quiet road, the forest was also very silent. They did not see a single big bird they had seen before.
“Girl, pay more attention to your feet. Don’t step on the medicine,” Old Wu reminded her. It was easy for treasures to appear in such a good place. As doctors, they cared about medicinal herbs the most.
