Qiu Niang did not want to tell Chu Yun about these things and also did not want Chu Yun to be worried. This was also the reason why she did not pass the Hell King's Life-taking Needle technique to Chu Yun. This needle technique could be used but she would try not to use it!
"Master, I will help you back to rest first. I will come back to see Senior Sister Nan later."
As she spoke, Chu Yun supported Qiu Niang and left the secret chamber. At this time, Nan Yudia had already fallen into a coma. This period of time would continue until the poison in her body was completely removed. Chu Yun only need to constantly pay attention to Nan Yudia's body condition and change a set of silver needles every two hours to seal all the major acupuncture points in Nan Yudia's body.
At the peak of Cloud Mountain, Nan Yudia's treatment process was proceeding in an orderly manner. In a small town thousands of miles away from Cloud Mountain, Qi Zhuohao was eating alone in a winery.
This small town was called Yunji Town and the Yunji Town's terrain was remote. However, the Yunji Town was unusually bustling. There was no other reason. Yunji Town was the only ancient town connected to Great Sun Prefecture in the east of Thousand Stars County. It was the place where the trade between the warriors of two counties intersected.
After a few days of galloping, Qi Zhuohao finally arrived at this place. This place was only a hundred miles away from the Myriad Corpses Mountain. After traveling for many days, Qi Zhuohao was a little tired and hungry, so he stopped to rest.
Also, Qi Zhuohao had his own purpose in entering the Yunji Town. The Myriad Corpses Mountain was very dangerous, and almost no one dared to enter it. However, it was said that there were countless treasures in the Myriad Corpses Mountain. This undoubtedly attracted the curiosity of many brave warriors. The reason Qi Zhuohao came here was to find out more about the Myriad Corpses Mountain. Secondly, he wanted to see if he could find a warrior to travel together with!
The Myriad Corpses Mountain was very dangerous. Having one more person to travel with would be beneficial to Qi Zhuohao's search for the Floating Life Tree. The reason why Qi Zhuohao had this thought was also for his own safety.
A thousand years ago, the number one devil sect of the Great Desolate, Dark Prison Hall, had a decisive battle with many major powers in the Blessed Land of Jade Clouds. That battle could be said to be a river of blood and corpses piled up like a mountain. Not long after that, the Yu Xia Blessed Land had become the current Myriad Corpses Mountain. It was enveloped by a thick miasma of corpse Qi. During that battle, many treasures were left behind in the Myriad Corpses Mountain. For thousands of years, countless people had been eyeing the treasures in the Myriad Corpses Mountain.
And because of the miasma and unknown dangers in Myriad Corpses Mountain... For thousands of years, not a single person had been able to bring out a single treasure from Myriad Corpses Mountain. Even those who had entered the Myriad Corpses Mountain were unable to come out alive. This made the Myriad Corpses Mountain even more mysterious and attracted the desire of bold warriors to hunt for treasures.
"You two, you came quite early. What's wrong? The rest of you are all cowardly turtles, and didn't come to meet us?"
Suddenly, a middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat took off his bamboo hat. His face was covered in pockmarks, making it hard for Qi Zhuohao to swallow the food in his mouth. Surprised, Qi Zhuohao coldly looked at the pockmarks.
The pockmarks were staring at two people at a table, a man and a woman. Both of them were in their thirties, and the man was wearing a white robe. He was handsome and had a long sword on his back. It was obvious that he was a swordsman. He was at the 9th level of the Spirit Acceptance Stage.
The woman was wearing a red outfit. Although she was beautiful, she was also at the ninth level of the Spirit Acceptance Stage. Shockingly, her cultivation base was also at the ninth level of the Spirit Acceptance Realm. Like the pockmarks and the man, she only glanced at the pockmarks. She did not say anything.
"Crazy Pockmarked-face Man, the two of us have been waiting for you for several days. We thought you wouldn't dare to meet us." The man chuckled and said, "Brother Crazy, come over here and have a seat. It's time for us to set off. "
Qi Zhuohao was stunned when he heard the conversation between the man and the pockmarks. He had heard of Crazy Pockmarked-face Man's name before. He was a killer who killed countless people. No one in the world knew his real name, because his face was full of pockmarks. He was given the nickname Crazy Pockmarked-face Man!
"Brother Xiao, Sister Hongchen, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for just the three of us to enter the Myriad Corpses Mountain!"
Crazy Pockmarked-face Man walked over and sat down. This time, they had invited many heroes to gather in the Yunji Town. Their goal was to join hands and enter the Myriad Corpses Mountain to search for treasures, but in the end, only he, Xiao Sheng and Hongchen came. It seemed like the ferocious reputation of the Myriad Corpses Mountain was really frightening!
As soon as Crazy Pockmarked-face Man's words came out, Qi Zhuohao was stunned once again. These three people were actually going to the Myriad Corpses Mountain? Also, the white-robed man was the Mo Lu Swordsman Xiao Sheng, and the red-clothed girl was a rogue cultivator of the Great Sun County. People called her Poison Lady Hongchen.
Qi Zhuohao knew very well in his heart that whether it was Crazy Pockmarked-face Man, Xiao Sheng, the Sword Artist Mo Lu, or Poison Lady Hongchen, they were all people who killed people like flies. He was afraid that only such a person would dare to set foot in Myriad Corpses Mountain.
"Brother Crazy, don't mention it. Those people said that they were fearless, but after hearing that we were going to the Myriad Corpses Mountain, they refused our invitation. Now, only the three of us have come here."
Xiao Sheng changed the topic and said with a cold smile, "What? Brother Crazy, are you afraid? As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't be able to obtain the tiger's den. If Brother Crazy wants to withdraw, Sister Hongchen and I won't stop you."
"Xiao Sheng, let go of your mother's fart! Do you think I'm afraid? Isn't it just the Myriad Corpses Mountain? I have been a martial artist for so many years, and I have killed more people than the corpses in the Myriad Corpses Mountain. What should I be afraid of?"
Crazy Pockmarked-face Man slammed the table angrily. Seeing this, not only was Xiao Sheng not angry, he was also furious. Instead, he said with a smile, "Brother Crazy, you don't have to be angry. I was just saying it casually. If Brother Crazy doesn't dare to go to Myriad Corpses Mountain, who else in the world would dare to go there?"
"That's enough. If you come here to chat, forgive me for not keeping you company. If you want to go to Myriad Corpses Mountain, feel free to fill your stomach and set off!" Poison Lady Hongchen finally spoke. Her tone was somewhat angry.
Hearing this, Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and Xiao Sheng, the sword artist, immediately shut their mouths. Obviously, the two of them were very afraid of Poison Lady Hongchen. What a joke! Poison Lady's nickname was not given to Hongchen for free. Her Poison Technique was very powerful. If he offended her, he would not even know if he died.
It should be known that although Hongchen was beautiful, his heart was as vicious as a snake's scorpion. It was said that her husband and wife, as well as their children, were all poisoned to death by her. The words that were most poisonous to a woman's heart seemed to be referring to Poison Lady Hongchen herself.
The winery gradually quieted down. Qi Zhuohao retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and swept away all the delicacies on the table. After that, he walked towards Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two without batting an eyelid.
"Three of you, I heard that you are going to Myriad Corpses Mountain. Why don't you bring me along?"
Qi Zhuohao cupped his fist toward Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two, and spoke in a very polite tone. These three men were all evil people, and Qi Zhuohao actually didn't want to go with them. However, he could also tell that other than these three men... Currently, it seemed like no one dared to step into the Myriad Corpses Mountain.
Qi Zhuohao wanted to know more about the situation in the Myriad Corpses Mountain. Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two were the best targets. The three of them must have been planning for a long time to enter the Myriad Corpses Mountain to search for treasures. As such, the three of them must know a lot about the situation in the Myriad Corpses Mountain.
"Who are you? You are merely at the first level of the Spirit Acceptance Realm, why did you go to Myriad Corpses Mountain to die? Also, why did we bring you along?" Qi Zhuohao's cultivation realm made Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two feel very disdainful. Crazy Pockmarked-face Man immediately scolded him.
Xiao Sheng also snorted coldly. He sized up Qi Zhuohao and said, "Kid, Myriad Corpses Mountain is not a place you should go. If we bring you along, you will only become a burden to us. Only courage is not enough."
Xiao Sheng's tone was obviously a little unhappy. With Qi Zhuohao's cultivation realm, what right did he have to travel with them? The three of them were all ninth level Spirit Acceptance realm experts, and each of them had extraordinary strength. Bringing along a trash, wouldn't they be looking for trouble?
"Three of you, my name is Qi Tian, although my cultivation base is low... My strength isn't strong either, but I really want to enter the Myriad Corpses Mountain to search for treasures. Three of you, the Myriad Corpses Mountain is very dangerous. One more person means one more strength. Perhaps I can help you."
Qi Zhuohao pretended to be in fear and trepidation. He was worried that the people from Azure Sky Castle would find him, so he didn't use his real name.
As soon as Qi Zhuohao said this, Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two men looked at each other. The three of them saw a strange look in each other's eyes. Xiao Sheng chuckled. He said, "Brother Qi is right. Alright, we'll bring you along with us."
"Thank you very much, three of you!" Qi Zhuohao answered excitedly, but he was sneering in his heart. He knew that the reason why these three people were willing to bring him along... What he said... As expected, it worked.
"Qi Tian, after entering the Myriad Corpses Mountain, you will follow behind us. Let's make this clear first. The Myriad Corpses Mountain is extremely dangerous, and we won't protect you. If you encounter any danger, you can deal with it yourself! " Crazy Pockmarked-face Man said as he put on his bamboo hat.
"Brother Crazy is right. Also, Brother Qi, the treasure we found... We have to take it first, and you take it last. Do you understand? "Xiao Sheng also reminded. Obviously, this wasn't a fair treasure hunt. Qi Zhuohao did not have the qualifications to obtain valuable treasures.
" I understand. Please rest assured, I know the rules! " Qi Zhuohao did not dare to be neglectful and quickly replied. After that, he followed the three of them to the outside of the winery and rode the Horned Horse towards the Myriad Corpses Mountain.
"By the way, three of you, have you carefully understood the situation in the Myriad Corpses Mountain?"
After leaving the Yunji Town, Qi Zhuohao immediately asked. He didn't know much about the situation in the Myriad Corpses Mountain. The reason why Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and the other two dared to enter the Myriad Corpses Mountain to search for treasures wasn't because they were brave enough to seek death, but because they had made a thorough plan.
"Of course. Brother Qi, do you think we are going to die in Myriad Corpses Mountain because we are full?"
Poison Lady still didn't reply, and didn't even look at Qi Zhuohao. Crazy Pockmarked-face Man also ignored Qi Zhuohao. Only Xiao Sheng seemed to be curious and replied faintly.
Of course, Qi Zhuohao knew that Xiao Sheng was good at scheming. Xiao Sheng looked calm on the surface, but he definitely had some tricks in his heart. Maybe this Xiao Sheng was more dangerous to him than Crazy Pockmarked-face Man and Poison Lady.
"That's good. It is said that the corpse miasma in Myriad Corpses Mountain can corrode a warrior's body. I wonder if it is true?"
Qi Zhuohao did not seem to hear Xiao Sheng's impatient tone. He sighed with emotion. His words made Xiao Sheng even more disdainful. "Brother Qi, you don't even know about the situation in Myriad Corpses Mountain. You still dare to go to Myriad Corpses Mountain?"
If Qi Zhuohao's realm was very high, Xiao Sheng would definitely think that Qi Zhuohao had some ulterior motives. Was this person reckless or was he an ignorant fool who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth? He didn't know anything, but he actually dared to go to the Myriad Corpses Mountain?
"Brother Xiao, to tell you the truth, I am very curious about the Myriad Corpses Mountain. It is also my first time coming here. I wanted to investigate before entering the Myriad Corpses Mountain, but I didn't expect to meet you. Follow you, no matter how dangerous the Myriad Corpses Mountain is? I should be fine as well! "
Qi Zhuohao's words were very flattering, and Xiao Sheng was very happy to hear it. He chuckled and said, "Brother Qi, you are very aware of the situation in Myriad Corpses Mountain. I will tell you about it first, in case you die early."
