Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 421: The Air of Disease
After Chen Wang and his companion walked in, they found seven or eight people in the mansion who were ragged, pale and thin.

These people have sluggish eyes and are in a trance.

They were all surprised when they saw a man and a woman coming.

A middle-aged man asked, "Who are you two?"

He stuttered when he spoke and looked very weak.

There was a plague in the town and no one had come for a long time.

Chen Wang said, "I'm here to look for Taoist Zhang. I wonder where he is in the town."

The middle-aged man's eyes were a little cloudy at first, but after hearing this, they brightened up and he immediately asked, "Are you also immortals on the mountain?"

Chen Wang was stunned for a moment.
Aren’t these immortal cultivators called immortals in the secular dynasty?

The middle-aged man asked anxiously, "You are all immortals like Taoist Zhang, right?"

There was a hopeful look in his eyes.

Chen Wang asked, "What happened?"

The middle-aged man said, "Master Zhang has gone into the mountains. I'm afraid he has met with an accident. You two are his friends, so go find him quickly!"

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, what happened?"

The middle-aged man looked a little excited, his cheeks were flushed and his body was shaking.

Chen Wang took out a pill and handed it over.
"Dissolve this pill in water and take it. Don't be anxious. Tell me slowly."

This is an ordinary elixir, which has the effect of detoxifying, warding off evil spirits, curing diseases and improving health for ordinary people.

The middle-aged man took it, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Chen Wang waved his hand.

Then the middle-aged man dissolved the elixir with water, and several people took it one by one.

Soon, their complexions improved visibly, but the sickly aura between their brows was still difficult to eliminate.

When ordinary people take this elixir, dissolve it in water and drink it, their complexion will be extremely good, and their deficient qi and blood, as well as all diseases in their body, will be completely eliminated.

But unexpectedly, the illness in their bodies was not cured at this time.

"No wonder the alchemist stayed here for a while. The plague here seems to be quite serious."

These people knelt down one after another and called Chen Wang and Feng Lin gods!
Chen Wang asked about Taoist Zhang, and the middle-aged man said, "The disease in our town is very strange. Taoist Zhang said that it was caused by evil spirits. It was not an ordinary thing. If he wanted to save people, he would offend the evil spirits."

"It's just that he is willing to bear the consequences in order to save others."

"The people in the town took Taoist Zhang's magic water, and many of their illnesses were relieved. After taking the magic water for a few days, some people have gotten better, but a few days ago, a group of people suddenly fell ill again."

"The Taoist Zhang said he wanted to fight the evil spirits that were causing trouble in the dark."

"Three days ago, Taoist Zhang told us to close the doors and not go out. At night, we heard screams outside. Someone saw a tall black shadow walking over the wall. I don't know if the sound was made by the evil spirit."

"Master Zhang told us to keep our doors shut so no one would know what was happening on the street.
But when he came back, his robe was stained with blood and he looked a little weak. "

"He said he wanted to go into the mountains and cut off the root of this evil once and for all.

But three days have passed, and Taoist Zhang has not made any movement. I suspect that Taoist Zhang has met with an accident."

Chen Wang looked at Feng Lin when he heard this.
Feng Lin mentioned this Taoist Zhang, who was a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building.

"Master Zhang said that the plague in the town is not an ordinary disease, but is caused by evil spirits?"

Chen Wang asked.

The middle-aged man said, "Yes, that's what Taoist Zhang said."

Chen Wang pointed to the mountain in the distance and asked, "Have there ever been any ghost stories in Mingyue Mountain?"

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No, I just occasionally tell my son that wild wolves in the mountains will take away disobedient children. There is no other evil news."

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows.

"This is a bit strange. Could it be a passing evil spirit?"

Feng Lin said: "What should we do now?"

Chen Wang thought for a moment.

The matter of refining the Nine Revolutions Pill was extremely critical. Although his fire talent had increased and his spiritual awareness could be strengthened by refining antiques,

However, improving alchemy skills is not something that can be achieved overnight, and finding Taoist Zhang to take action is the fastest way.

It was already late at night. Chen Wang frowned and said, "The evil spirit was repelled by Taoist Zhang and retreated into the mountains. It can be seen that its ability is limited. We can go explore the mountains."

He analyzed it in his mind.
Perhaps that Taoist Zhang went into the mountains to hunt down the evil spirit.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happened to the town in the next few days, the evil spirits would return here, and there would probably be no survivors in the town.

Many thoughts flashed through Chen Wang's mind in a flash.

At this time, Chen Wang made a decision, and Feng Lin said softly, "Okay."

Chen Wang asked, "Do you have any of Taoist Zhang's personal belongings?"

The middle-aged men looked at each other and said, "Doctor Wang should have a gourd that Taoist Zhang carried with him."

Chen Wang nodded: "Take me to find him."

Taoist Zhang cured illnesses and saved lives in Mingyue Town and was regarded as an old immortal who saved people from suffering.

Now they were worried that something unexpected might happen, and everyone was worried.

Seeing a god coming to rescue him, he naturally cooperated quickly. After taking the potion, his steps became much lighter.

He found Doctor Wang in the carriage and took a gourd from him.

This gourd was an ordinary wine gourd. Chen Wang pulled it open and sniffed it, and found some spirit wine inside.

Doctor Wang said, "The old immortal said that if you encounter a severe epidemic, you should stop using the magic water and pour out this wine and dissolve it in water to drink."

Chen Wang nodded.
Among them are some spiritual wines and many medicinal herbs that can detoxify and ward off evil spirits. They are more powerful than ordinary detoxifying pills.

Chen Wang didn't have any covetous intentions towards this.

He took out a tracking talisman and extracted a breath from the gourd. The tracking talisman seemed to come to life and trembled in his hand.

Chen Wang turned to Feng Lin and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Feng Lin said: "I'm not afraid, but if I go, will I become a burden to you? It's better for me to stay in this town."

She explained it, fearing that Chen Wang would think that she was unwilling to take the risk.

Chen Wang knew what she was thinking and smiled: "Don't be so cautious, I know what you are thinking."

At this time, Chen Wang looked up at the night sky and said softly: "I'm just leaving you alone in this town. I'm afraid you'll disappear when I come back."

Feng Lin opened her rosy little mouth, her eyes filled with some confusion.

Chen Wang thought to himself, "Isn't that how it's played out in horror movies? If I'm alone here, what else can I do but ask for my life?"

Chen Wang smiled and patted her cheek, saying softly, "Don't think too much, just follow me."

"We don't have much friendship with this Taoist Zhang. If we can save him, we will. If we can't, we will fly away on our swords and take a look at him from a distance. At most, we can build a cenotaph for him. There is no need to risk our lives for him."

Seeing the two of them flying away on their swords, this magical method was even more amazing. However, they did not hear what the two said just now, otherwise, I am afraid that the filter would be shattered to the ground.

Chen Wang flew into the mountain on his sword. He carefully observed the tracking symbol in his hand. The tracking symbol trembled slightly to point out the direction for him.

The mountain roads here are rugged and dangerous, with poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. It is also extremely difficult to walk on the mountain roads after dark.

However, Chen Wang flew into the air with his sword, with mountains and rivers at his feet, so he didn't care about all this.

After arriving at a place with the tracking symbol, the tracking symbol began to vibrate slightly and no longer sent out any information.

"It's about here, but why does it stop here?"

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows.

The tracking talisman is not omnipotent. It is very accurate in tracking mortals, but it will be impossible to track immortal cultivators due to many variables.

The quality was already very good, so Chen Wang temporarily gave up.

At this time, he had an ancient sword, the Qingniu Sword, hanging on his waist, and walked in the wilderness with an upright posture.

It was night time in the desolate mountains and wilderness, so it naturally looked a bit eerie, with a quiet and dark atmosphere.

Chen Wang had a solemn expression. In such an ordinary small town, a demon comparable to a master in the Foundation Establishment Stage appeared, and it seemed to be extremely huge in size.

Chen Wang also had to become serious.

He expanded his spiritual sense, and it quickly fed back the images.

Then he used the lighting technique, and a disc the size of a human head floated in front of the two of them like a lantern.

In the dark night in the wilderness, there are such a handsome man and woman, with a lantern floating beside them. If other people saw them, they would probably be scared out of their wits and scream that they had encountered a ghost.

The two of them were searching in the mountain. Chen Wang expanded his spiritual sense, and the range of his spiritual sense was now much larger than before.

He carefully sensed the movements of Taoist Zhang and looked at the tracking talisman in his hand. Although the tracking talisman was still ineffective, there was no feedback.

Chen Wang placed both hands on the hilt of the sword, cautious and alert.

Feng Lin also held the magic weapon in his hand, ready to use it at any time.

After walking for a while, the tracking symbol in Chen Wang's hand jumped again and became a little hot.

This means the target is nearby.

Chen Wang’s spiritual sense probed out and discovered a mountain stream.

The two of them came to the cliff and looked down. Chen Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't this Taoist going to fall down?"

Feng Lin said: "The road is rugged at night. If it were an ordinary person, they might fall down, but how could a foundation-building cultivator fall down?"

At this moment, there was a sound of fighting from below.
Bang bang bang!

It sounds very creepy.

Chen Wang and Feng Lin looked at each other.
"Sure enough, it's down there."

The sound of fighting was very intense, and there was a golden light flying around.

Chen Wang saw that the person who cast the golden light was a Taoist priest with white hair and beard and bloodstains on his body.

This golden light was a magical weapon, and at this moment it was emitting power, illuminating a figure.

This is a giant bear, huge in size and completely black.

Illuminated by the golden light, his ferocious appearance was revealed.

It clapped its paws, and every strike was as heavy as a thousand pounds!

Chen Wang immediately dispersed the lighting technique, and he and Feng Lin flew down.

During this period, his spiritual awareness continued to expand, sensing the movements of the battle.

The old man with white hair and beard had an ethereal figure and his moves were as swift as the wind.

The magic power of the cultivators in the foundation-building stage spreads throughout their bodies. They are invulnerable to swords and knives. They can break monuments and rocks with a wave of their hands and a raise of their feet. They possess extremely strong power.

As he waved his hand, sparks of lightning appeared, and combined with the golden light, the momentum was extremely fierce!

The giant bear had thick skin and tough flesh, making it difficult to deal with. Although its movements were not fast, its attack speed was extremely fast, and every palm strike it landed with extremely astonishing momentum.

This old Taoist is the alchemist Zhang Daoren. Although he is famous for his alchemy, he is also very skilled and has a very strong hand.

The golden light was a medicine pestle, but it was made of pure gold and was extremely heavy.

After he lifted it up, he smashed it on the black bear, and each hit made the black bear stagger.

Although this Taoist's attack was fierce, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was at a disadvantage, so he had to give it a try.

Chen Wang noticed that his right leg was swollen and had turned purple. It didn't look like a human leg at all, but just a large purple carrot.

One trouser leg was torn into strips.

This made his movements slightly slow.

At this moment, the giant bear slapped him with its palm, and the whole person flew backwards, and only stopped after smashing two ancient trees.

Taoist Zhang's hair and beard stood out, and he let out a loud shout. The golden light broke through the air again and hit the black bear's body!
The giant bear slapped down with both hands, meeting the golden light. Although its body trembled, the golden light also trembled a few times and returned to Taoist Zhang's hands.

Taoist Zhang frowned and took another detoxification pill to suppress the toxicity in his right leg.

At this moment, the giant bear took a step forward and rushed towards him!
It is indeed shocking to see such a ferocious creature in the wilderness.

Its huge fleshy paw slapped down,

But at this moment, a ray of starlight suddenly broke through the sky.

Poof!
One of the giant bear's paws was cut off!
The bones of a black bear are extremely hard, and so is its skin.

However, under the Qingyun Sword, one of the bear's paws was still cut off.

Taoist Zhang raised his eyebrows and saw a man and a woman falling down.

The man was dressed in a green shirt and had an upright posture. He exuded a very strong aura, and the sword just now should have been swung by him.

"Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist." Taoist Zhang said loudly.

Chen Wang said: "Today, I will join hands with fellow Taoists to kill this monster!"

Taoist Zhang quickly said, "This is a puppet. Be careful of the strange beast behind it."

Chen Wang's eyebrows suddenly raised when he saw that behind the giant bear there was indeed a strange beast that looked like a fox but had scales on its body.

His eyebrows immediately raised, but he couldn't figure out what this monster was.

He just shouted: "Okay!"

Then a loud dragon roar was sounded, and the Qingniu Sword broke through the air and slashed towards the strange beast.

However, the black bear was extremely fast. It turned around suddenly and slapped it with one palm!

Chen Wang had a blank expression on his face, and the Qingniu Sword directly split the bear paw into two halves.

This sword is extremely sharp and is made from the essence of five metals. It is very powerful.

After cutting off its palm, Chen Wang raised the sword again and struck at its back!
