Flying in the sky over here didn’t work, so he could only walk out of the black fog on foot.
But this forest was also filled with black mist, the visible distance was short, and divine sense wasn’t good, Lin Yun was even less familiar with this forest, and for a while, he couldn’t find a direction to move forward.
Immediately after, Lin Yun took out a map to check.
The map in Lin Yun’s hands was rather rudimentary, and he didn’t find a specific name for this place on the map.
Because the Star Martial Empire was so large, this map of the empire only marked out the various kingdoms, as well as the various counties, and even then, the amount of information was already very large.
Moreover, Lin Yun’s map was purchased in the Cang Dome Kingdom, so the map was more comprehensive in terms of marking out information about the Cang Dome Kingdom, as well as a few nearby kingdoms, while the rest of the world was recorded in a more rudimentary manner.
“We can only go forwards first.”Lin Yun muttered.
Right now, Lin Yun couldn’t find a direction either, so there was no other way but to go forwards with a stiff upper lip.
Thus, Lin Yun picked a random direction and then travelled forward.
Along the way, Lin Yun also tried to remain as vigilant as possible.
The divine sense could only probe a hundred metres in this black mist, but Lin Yun also released his divine sense openly, so even a hundred metres was enough for Lin to gain an early insight into the crisis.
After walking some distance, Lin Yun met a demonic beast head on.
“Roar!”
After this there demonic beast encountered Lin Yun, it immediately let out a roar and charged towards Lin Yun.
“A demonic spirit, how dare you be reckless?”Lin Yun sneered.
When the demonic beast rushed in front of him, Lin Yun directly flashed out his red-blooded sword, which carried a powerful might as it streaked across like lightning.
Plop!
The demonic beast’s head was instantly chopped off by Lin Yun.
“Since there’s a demonic beast in this mountain, there’s definitely more than one, and since there’s a demonic spirit, there might also be even more powerful demonic beasts, so we should be more careful.”Lin Yun muttered.
The Great Zephyr Mountain Range that Lin Yun had gone to in the first place was only one of the most treacherous of those kingdoms to the west of the Star Martial Empire.
Whereas Lin Yun was now travelling north, it was already completely out of the area of those few kingdoms, so there were more menacing places.
Of course, this place was also out of the range of the Heavenly Sword Sect, which only enrolled in a few kingdoms, the Cangdao Kingdom, the An Yuan Kingdom, and the Luda Kingdom, and further out, it was the range of enrolment for other famous sects.
As for which famous sect was the birthplace of the Northern Liang Kingdom, Lin Yun wasn’t sure.
Lin Yun took out the Demon Beast Dan and then continued on his way.
Along the way, Lin Yun had encountered a few more demonic beasts, but none of them were of any consequence, and the highest one was a demon general, which Lin Yun had killed in full.
“Eh? Someone?”
Lin Yun’s divine sense suddenly detected the trail of a group of people, and they were travelling opposite to himself.
“It’s good that there are people, if they can help guide me for a moment or two, it’ll be much easier to leave a strange forest.”Lin Yun muttered.
When Lin Yun’s divine sense probed, the two sides were less than a hundred metres away, so they quickly met.
This group of people, numbering more than twenty, were all holding weapons in battle formation so that they could respond to battles in all directions at any time, and many of them had their hands stained with blood.
After they came across Lin Yun, they all stared at him with wary gazes.
“Who are you!”The burly man in the lead looked extremely wary.
After all, they were naturally wary of Lin Yun since he was wearing a black veil and they had met in such a haunted place.
“Fellow Daoists, I’m travelling to Bei Liang City and I was passing by, but I ended up accidentally getting lost here… are you a few Daoists from this local area? Can you guide me out, or give me directions as well.”Lin Yun appeared courteous.
“So you’re from out of town, you’re also unlucky that you didn’t bypass this Black Mist Mountain and barged in, I don’t know how many outsiders lose their lives every year because they mistakenly barge into the Black Mist Mountain.”The burly man said.
“I also accidentally broke in, if you good men can lead me out, I can give some spirit crystals as a guide fee.”Lin Yun had a good attitude.
Next to him, there was a woman dressed in a masculine manner who spoke, “Father, you’ve always been known to help people, so since you’ve encountered this kind of thing, take him down the mountain with you.”
“Father, you can’t bring strangers! The rivers and lakes are dangerous, this is what you said, father.”A young man beside him, his tone was solemn.
“Chief Bodyguard, Young Bodyguard has a point, this Black Mist Mountain doesn’t have to be any other place, it’s better not to bring strangers.”Several men behind the burly man, all stepped forward to persuade.
After pondering for a moment, the burly man opened his mouth and said, “It is fate to meet in plain water, my old soup has always been willing to help others, and I do not want to see this Taoist friend, perish in the mountain, we are now going down the mountain, and it is exactly to go to Beilang City, this Taoist friend, since it is also to go to Beilang City, you can come with us.”
“Then thank you, fellow Daoist.”Lin Yun smiled faintly.
“Father, I know you have a good heart, but in a place like this, having a good heart might invite death!”The young man sighed.
“Zheng’er, there’s no need to say more.”The burly man waved his hand.
Immediately after, the burly man looked at Lin Yun once again, “Fellow Daoist, you can just follow me, if there’s any danger on the way, a group of us will try our best to solve it.”
“Thank you, fellow Daoist.”Lin Yun clasped his fists.
With a displeased look, the young man glared at Lin Yun, as if he was warning Lin Yun that he had better not harbour any ill intentions.
Lin Yun just smiled and didn’t say anything, the jianghu was dangerous, we had never met before, how could we know if the other party was a good or bad person? And this place was already extraordinary, this young man, didn’t want to take Lin Yun, as well as being wary of Lin Yun, Lin Yun did understand him.
On the great road of cultivation, killing people was a common occurrence.
Immediately after, Lin Yun looked at the woman next to him who was dressed in masculine clothes, this woman had a cold face.
“This fellow Daoist, thank you as well!”Lin Yun cupped his fists at the woman.
“There’s no need to thank me, just don’t harbour any ill intentions, otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite.”The woman said coldly.
Lin Yun secretly probed in his heart, this woman had a hot character.
Immediately after, Lin Yun followed them down the mountain.
Only after setting off together did Lin realise that the route he had travelled before was completely wrong.
On the road.
“Fellow Daoist, my humble self, Tang Yuancheng, the chief bodyguard of the Tang Clan’s Dart Bureau in Beiliang City, this is my daughter, Tang Yan, this is my son, Tang Zheng, the others are my Tang Clan’s Dart Bureau’s dart masters, I don’t know how to address you, Fellow Daoist.”The burly man made his introduction, appearing bright and enthusiastic.
“I …… have the Dao number North Star.”Lin Yun thought for a moment before saying it in one mouthful.
Lin Yun had messed with the Ancient Family and would most likely be hunted down by the Ancient Family, so of course Lin Yun didn’t dare to use the word ‘Lin Yun’ anymore.
Taking a dao name and showing people by it couldn’t be better.
As for their purpose of entering the mountain, naturally Lin Yun was not in a good position to ask about it, or else they would really think that Lin Yun had some mischievous intentions.
Because the Black Mist Mountain was shrouded in black mist, the team didn’t travel very fast.
