Bearing the blue sky

According to the Hedgehog Girl, Yuanyang City was built by a master craftsman from the Mo family.

This ability to make a city float in the air is truly beyond Zhu Ge's current understanding.

"Truly a master craftsman."

A song of praise and celebration.

In the distance, Yuanyang City floated in the air like stars and the moon.

The crimson "Red River," from which Honghe Prefecture got its name, also rose from the ground in a very illogical way, curving in a parabola in the air near Yuanyang City before falling back down.

And it's not a waterfall, but a normal river.

Although the original owner of the body, "Zhu Ge," had also been to Yuanyang City, the feeling Zhu Ge experienced now was many times stronger than the feeling in her memory.

In the distance from Yuanyang City, a dark green cloud loomed, stretching from the sky down to several mountains below.

The shrouded area was shrouded in mist, making it difficult to see clearly, as if one were in another world.

The territory of the Plague Sparrow!

However, Zhu Ge only glanced at it from afar, and he felt his giant egg soul tremble.

"not good!"

Zhu Ge quickly shifted his gaze, while three streams of blood energy surged upwards and spread around his head.

"Brother, what happened?!"

The true form of Hua Liusha was also disturbed.

The "囍" character pasted on the giant egg shone brightly red, and then wisps of green appeared in Zhu Ge's soul space.

"Whoosh..."

The red mist of Hua Liusha surged and soon expelled the greenery from Zhuge's body.

Outside, billowing green mist poured down from Zhu Ge's nostrils, ears, and other parts of his body.

Zhu Ge's body was protected by blood and qi, which was not a big deal, but everything within a hundred meters around him suddenly withered and decayed, and no life remained.

Even just spying from afar can lead to harm!

Zhu Ge was seriously injured after being merely glanced at curiously by the Plague God Sparrow from afar.

Although Zhu Ge did not directly confront the Plague God Sparrow, he was still injured by it.

"This is the great god, a plague god..." Zhu Ge took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart.

Zhu Ge also encountered many cultivation systems.

Whether it's the deeply hidden Fungus God or the powerful Fisherman in the Straw Raincoat, Zhu Ge believes they can both be defeated with wisdom.

You should know that if it weren't for Zhu Ge, the Mushroom God could have killed everyone in Jianshan Village, including Yu Xiucai.

Even the god of fungi wouldn't dare to act recklessly when the master was around.

Meanwhile, the three villages of Menglapo, who were on par with the master, and the master mechanics of the Mo family, were easily killed by the fisherman in the straw raincoat.

But even the fisherman in the straw raincoat was tricked and killed by Zhu Ge's inescapable trap.

However, Zhu Ge felt powerless in the face of the Plague Sparrow.

This made him realize something.

Even a spider can only trap enemies whose silk cannot withstand its weight.

To catch birds, you need the silk of a tarantula.

Individual ability!

"We cannot enter Yuanyang City yet."

Zhu Ge made the judgment in an instant.

He almost got injured just from glancing at the green mist of the Plague God Sparrow from dozens of miles away.

How badly must the situation be in Yuanyang City, which is even closer?

Also, this is just the Plague Sparrow. Zhu Ge remembers the fisherman in the straw raincoat mentioning a great demon called "Red River Dragon Python".

If the Great Plague God Sparrow is so powerful, then the Great Demon Red River Dragon Python must be no weaker either.

Zhu Ge had serious doubts about whether the great immortal Lord Yuanyang was qualified enough to withstand the pressure.

In the distance, the city of Yuanyang lay silent in the dead of night, like a ghost town.

I don't know if it was because it was late at night or because everyone was dead, anyway...

A wise person does not stand under a crumbling wall!

Therefore, Zhu Ge decided to postpone her plans and go to Yuanyang City later.

Having made up her mind, Zhu Ge didn't hesitate at all and immediately turned and left.

However, we didn't encounter many monsters or even wild beasts along the way.

Zhu Ge suspected that all the creatures in the vicinity had been gathered up by the Plague God Sparrow.

This has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage, of course, is that the farther he runs, the less likely he is to be discovered.

The downsides are also obvious.

He has no one to practice martial arts with!

"Should we go find the Tiger God?" Zhu Ge thought of the Tiger God of Jianshan Village.

Tiger God was previously a god of the second realm, a realm called "Moonwalk".

As a lunar deity, the Tiger God has devoured part of the fisherman's soul, so he should be close to breaking through.

Zhu Ge wasn't sure if Tiger God would break through the third realm and become the Destiny Star God.

If he succeeds, then Zhu Ge will be like a lamb entering a tiger's den.

"If Tiger God won't come out, and Mr. Insect doesn't dare to either, how am I supposed to practice martial arts?"

While thinking about this, Zhu Ge wandered outside all night, killing dozens of jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, before returning to the valley at sunrise.

"You're back?" Sensing Zhu Ge's approaching presence, the hedgehog girl was already standing at the valley entrance, bowing respectfully as a woman: "Welcome back, Master?"

Seeing the hedgehog girl imitating a maid, Zhu Ge's expression turned strange.

Was this adjusted by Hua Liusha?

She got it working in just one night. Hua Xiaomei is truly amazing, she was the big sister when we were kids!

"Well, how is your injury healing?" Zhu Ge asked.

Yesterday, the hedgehog girl was beaten half to death by him before she submitted, but as a transformed demon beast, she should recover quickly.

"I've recovered, Master!" the hedgehog girl exclaimed joyfully. "And thanks to my efforts last night, my cultivation has improved considerably!"

"Okay, let's have barbecue later."

Zhu Ge took out a pair of bear paws from the grass bowl and tossed them to the hedgehog girl.

The hedgehog girl quickly caught it.

Knowing where the bear paws came from, her eyes lit up as she exclaimed, "This family of big, clumsy bears—the strongest and toughest of them all is this male, but he's also the most delicious. He's lucky to have such a good meal with his owner!"

Zhu Ge smiled and shook her head: "We won't be able to eat them anymore. All the spirit realm and transformation realm demon beasts nearby have been gathered up near Yuanyang City..."

Zhu Ge briefly explained the situation, and then continued:

"So, from now on, we'll only be able to eat wild animals."

The energy in the flesh and blood of demons and wild beasts is different.

Monsters are delicious!

"Huh? Then why did you go out for a walk all night, Master?" the hedgehog girl asked in surprise.

At first, Zhu Ge said he wanted to go out hunting and practicing martial arts, but without monsters, there was no point in Zhu Ge going out.

But before Zhu Ge could speak, the hedgehog girl exclaimed again:

"I understand! Master, you're learning from those ancient masters of body refinement, observing mindless beasts to comprehend the true meaning, evolving your own Dao, and thus breaking through to the third realm and becoming a great being! Am I right, Master?"

what?

Can this be done?

Observing wild animals without having to fight them is fine too?

"Oh right, so I guess I can try practicing Tai Chi, Bajiquan, and Wuqinxi, which I was thinking about before..." Zhu Ge raised an eyebrow.

He looked at the hedgehog girl's knowing expression, hesitated, and slowly nodded:

"That's exactly what I think."

"Alright, enough talk, let's go grill the meat!"
