Chapter 807: Gray Mist

Looking at it, the lush grass and trees from before were all gone, replaced by a strange gray scene.

Between the two mountain peaks, there were white stones everywhere, each oval and smooth, the large ones the size of a head, the small ones only the size of a fist.

Looking further into the distance, a large patch of gray mist appeared, blurry and hazy, making it impossible to see the situation inside the mist.

However, these gray mists were always confined to a range of a hundred zhang wide in the middle, while the two sides were filled with blood-red light, rolling and squeezing toward the middle like a tide. But once they reached the two sides of the mist, they seemed to hit a dike, unable to advance even an inch.

"Is this the path you spoke of?" Lu Lu Weiying let out a breath and asked slowly.

"Not bad, it should be here. Brother Lu, do you feel anything is wrong?" Nan Long Hou was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but say.

"Those blood-colored rosy lights are definitely valley barriers, but this mist doesn't seem to be an ordinary thing either. In Cang Kun Shangren's legacy, was this mist mentioned?" Lu Lu Weiying looked at the gray mist in the distance and asked indifferently.

"No, it wasn't mentioned. I guess he felt it wasn't very important." Nan Long Hou hesitated for a moment and said.

"I always feel these gray mists are somewhat unusual. It's better to be careful." Lu-surnamed old man shook his head, his face showing solemnity.

"Whether there is a problem, won't we know if we test it?" Han Li suddenly spoke up from the side.

"Fellow Daoist Han is absolutely right. I happen to have raised a few Thousand-Li Orioles, usually just used to find spirit herbs. Now they can be used to test it." Nan Long Hou clapped his hands in agreement.

Lu Lu Weiying heard this and didn't object.

Nan Long Hou immediately took off a small spirit beast bag from his waist, threw it into the air, and let out a low chirp.

A small bird with golden feathers all over its body shot out from the bag like an arrow, then circled in the air.

Nan Long Hou raised his hand, and a green talisman flew out from his hand, hitting the small bird exactly.

The bird spread its wings, and a small green light shield appeared on its body.

Under Nan Long Hou's spiritual sense command, the small bird chirped sharply, transformed into a golden light, and shot toward the gray mist in the distance.

Before the bird even made contact with the gray mist in the distance, blue light flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he stared intently with his Spirit Eye divine ability.

But his gaze inadvertently swept across a certain place on the side. Han Li's expression shifted slightly, and a trace of strangeness appeared in his eyes.

Nan Long Hou and Lu Lu Weiying had all their attention on the Thousand-Li Oriole and didn't notice Han Li's strange expression.

The Thousand-Li Oriole had dived into the gray mist and disappeared.

Han Li couldn't see the situation inside the mist, and for the sake of caution, he didn't rashly use his spiritual sense to probe, just turned his face to look at Nan Long Hou's expression.

Nan Long Hou's eyes were slightly closed, his mind connected with the spirit bird.

His expression looked normal, indicating that the spirit bird hadn't met with disaster immediately after entering.

Han Li was pondering this when Nan Long Hou's body shook, his face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes opened.

"What? What happened?" Lu Lu Weiying was also paying attention to Nan Long Hou's expression, and seeing this, he hurriedly asked.

"There seems to be a monster in that gray mist; it actually swallowed the Thousand-Li Oriole in one gulp. It seems to be a..." Nan Long Hou's expression was strange, seemingly unable to be sure.

Han Li and the Lu-surnamed old man looked at each other in surprise.

"It seems to be a giant python, it should be. These gray mists should be the demonic mist sprayed by this giant python," Nan Long Hou pondered for a moment and finally said affirmatively.

"Giant python? This is somewhat strange. If there were such a monster, why would Cang Kun Shangren's legacy not mention this matter at all? Unless..."

"Unless the giant python ran into this path later." Han Li opened his mouth to pick up Lu Lu Weiying's hesitant words.

"That's right, that's what Lu meant."

"Two Fellow Daoists are right. However, being able to survive safely in this Fallen Devil Valley, it seems this giant python is not an ordinary monster, it should also be some kind of ancient beast. If we don't kill this beast, we can't enter the inner valley. This is somewhat troublesome!" Nan Long Hou nodded in agreement, it seemed only this could explain it.

"No matter. Since these gray mists are not barriers but just some demonic mist, there is no need to be overly wary. An ancient beast, the three of us working together shouldn't be difficult to deal with. It can't be more difficult to deal with than that Fire Toad Beast!" Lu Lu Weiying's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said calmly.

"Whether it's as powerful as that Fire Toad, I don't know yet. But now that things have reached this point, we must kill the giant python. Let's all take action together." Nan Long Hou said, opening his mouth and spitting out a small sword, golden and brilliant.

Lu-surnamed old man rubbed his hands together, and a white magic flag emitting brilliant light appeared in his hands.

Han Li saw this, and a trace of a bitter smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.

These two were indeed decisive. Seeing that it was unavoidable, they actually wanted to take action immediately, without even a moment of hesitation.

"Fine. Brother Lu did well. This way, we don't have to worry about this path leaking." Nan Long Hou clapped his hands and laughed lightly.

"It's nothing. A small Core Formation cultivator actually dared to stalk us. It can be considered death deserving." Lu Lu Weiying said indifferently.

Afterward, he grabbed into the void on the ground, and two things flew out from the bloodstains into his hands.

One was the storage pouch of the withered cultivator, the other was a pale yellow jade talisman.

Lu-surnamed old man didn't stand on ceremony either, looked at them twice, and put them into his storage pouch.

"This time, we really owe it to Fellow Daoist Han. Otherwise, we would have really capsized in the gutter. However, Brother Han can actually see through ancient concealment secret techniques. No wonder you have such a great reputation now." Nan Long Hou turned to Han Li and smiled.

"It's nothing. Just luck. Two Fellow Daoists could also see through his tracks. It was just a moment of carelessness that let him slip through the cracks." Han Li smiled slightly, appearing indifferent.

Nan Long Hou heard Han Li's humble words and shook his head, but didn't say anything else.

And at this time, Lu Lu Weiying also walked back.

"Let's take action quickly. Lest there be many dreams in the long night."

The old man's expression was slightly solemn. However, his words also made some sense.

Han Li nodded, flipped his palm, and a stack of shimmering array flags appeared in his hand.

"When we kill the giant python in a moment, the commotion will definitely not be small. I will first set up an isolation array to limit the impact to the barrier as much as possible. This way, we won't have to worry about other cultivators passing by nearby." Han Li touched his chin and suggested.

"Fellow Daoist Han is indeed a careful person. This is for the best." The old man showed a trace of a smile and couldn't help but praise.

Han Li immediately transformed into a green rainbow and set up the array flags in his hand one by one between the two mountain peaks.

A moment later, a large-scale magic array was completed.

The main function of this magic array was to suppress the sound and spiritual energy fluctuations in one place. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been completed in such a short time.

When the green rainbow Han Li transformed into returned to Nan Long Hou and the other two, Lu-surnamed old man shook the magic flag in his hand and said calmly:

"Since Fellow Daoist Han has finished setting it up, let me use this Hurricane Flag to blow away those demonic mists, so the giant python has nowhere to hide."

After saying this, the old man threw the treasure into the air and began to chant incantations.

Nan Long Hou saw this and pointed at the golden small sword in front of him.

Immediately, this sword transformed into a golden rainbow and rose into the sky, spinning in the high air, emitting brilliant golden light, and expanding wildly.

In the blink of an eye, a golden giant sword five or six zhang long appeared above Nan Long Hou.

===== CHAPTER 808 =====

"This time, we really owe it to Fellow Daoist Han. Otherwise, we would have truly capsized in the gutter. However, Brother Han was actually able to see through an ancient concealment technique. No wonder you have such a great reputation now." Marquis Lord Nanlong turned his head and smiled at Han Li.

"It's nothing. Just luck. Both fellow daoists could have also seen through its tracks; it was just a moment of carelessness that allowed it to exploit a loophole." Han Li smiled faintly, appearing unconcerned.

Marquis Lord Nanlong shook his head after hearing Han Li's humble words, but he did not say anything more.

At this moment, Lu Lu Weiying also walked back.

"Let's act quickly. To avoid further complications!"

The old man's expression was slightly solemn. However, his words did hold some truth.

Han Li nodded, flipped his palm, and a stack of glistening formation flags appeared in his hand.

"When we exterminate the giant python in a moment, the commotion will certainly not be small. I will first set up an isolation formation to limit the impact within the restriction as much as possible. This way, we won't have to worry about other cultivators passing by nearby." Han Li touched his chin and suggested.

"Brother Han is indeed a careful person. This is for the best." A trace of a smile appeared on the old man's face, and he couldn't help but offer praise.

Han Li immediately transformed into a green rainbow and set up the formation flags in his hand one by one between the two mountain peaks.

A moment later, a large-scale magic formation was completely set up.

The main function of this magic formation was simply to suppress the sound and spiritual energy fluctuations as much as possible in one place. Otherwise, it would not have been completed in such a short time.

When the green rainbow transformed by Han Li returned to the front of Marquis Lord Nanlong and the other, the old man surnamed Lu shook the magic flag in his hand and said calmly:

"Since Fellow Daoist Han has finished setting it up, let me use this Hurricane Flag to blow away those demon mists, so that the giant python has nowhere to hide."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man threw this treasure into the air and began to chant incantations.

Seeing this, Marquis Lord Nanlong also pointed at the small golden sword in front of him.

Immediately, this sword transformed into a golden rainbow that rose from the sky. After spinning around at high altitude, it released brilliant golden light and suddenly expanded wildly.

In the blink of an eye, a five or six-zhang-long giant golden sword appeared above Marquis Lord Nanlong.
