What Liu Jian said was not entirely believable to Teng Qing Shan.
There are a few points that can be confirmed. Firstly, Tie Yi Men's trip to the Barbarian Land must have been for something very important, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his own life. It could be the Undying Grass, or it could be something else. Secondly, judging from the direction Tie Yi Men was heading in and his tone and gaze towards Liu Jian, 'Silver Horn Mountain' is likely to be his destination with a probability of over 90%.
But...
The temporary goal is 'Iron Arm Ape Mountain'.
"The strength of Deng Geng, the Iron Armor Gate, is still uncertain. Moreover, he has four subordinates by his side, and their speed is only about 100 to 200 miles a day. It will take at least half a month to reach Silver Horn Mountain. If there are any delays along the way, it may take even longer. I'll go to Iron Arm Ape Mountain first, eat the 'Zhu Guo', and refine my prenatal true yuan. My strength will increase greatly, and then I'll head to Silver Horn Mountain!"
For those who want to kill themselves, Teng Qing Shan has never shown mercy!
Baby can grab then grab, can't grab then destroy opponent's good things!
……
With this decision, Teng Qing Shan's journey speeded up even more, and on the first day, he traveled 600 miles. That night, while resting on a sturdy tree branch, a python and two lizard-like beasts climbed up to ambush him.
Teng Qing Shan rested but didn't sleep; he sat cross-legged and meditated, at which time his six senses were most sensitive.
The python and beasts like lizards were all killed.
……
The next morning, Teng Qing Shan hurried on his journey again, cutting through thorns and killing many wild beasts along the way. By noon that day, he had already arrived at his destination - Iron Arm Ape Mountain!
Iron Arm Ape Mountain is towering into the clouds, and at the highest point of the mountain, there are still clouds and mist lingering.
"This Iron Arm Ape Mountain is really high!"
Teng Qing Shan's clothes were tattered, but his spirit was high. He looked up at the towering mountain, "It looks like it's at least 3,000 to 4,000 meters high! If I fell from the top and couldn't reduce my force, even I would be smashed into a meat pie." At this moment, Teng Qing Shan was in a great mood.
Finally arrived at the destination.
"Master only said that Zhu Guo was on Tie Bi Hou Mountain, but didn't know... where on Tie Bi Hou Mountain." Teng Qing Shan originally thought Tie Bi Hou Mountain was a small mountain, but unexpectedly it was such a high and big mountain.
"It would take a lot of time to search through the entire Iron Arm Ape Mountain."
"How can I find it?"
Just for a moment, Teng Qing Shan's face revealed a smile: "Hmmm... according to the book, the Iron Armed Ape will guard around the Crimson Fruit. It can't be obtained easily... Haha, yes, on the Iron Armed Ape Mountain, who else knows more about the location of the Crimson Fruit than the Iron Armed Ape? Looks like I just need to quickly climb up, where there's no Iron Armed Ape, there definitely won't be any Crimson Fruit."
First went to a small stream on one side and rinsed his face slightly.
Then, Fu Qing Shan carried his bundle on his back and quickly went up the mountain!
Tiebi Hou Mountain is a very steep and large mountain. However, climbing it is like walking on flat ground, you can run directly up the mountain, only occasionally encountering trouble that requires using your hands to climb.
*******
Teng Qing Shan sat on a branch of a big tree at the top of Tie Bi Hou mountain, taking out some flatbread and a gourd containing water from his bag: "Let's eat first, then take a good stroll. This mountain is too big, it's hard to find Tie Bi Hou even if we look for him." Teng Qing Shan took a sip of water, then bit into the flatbread with a loud crunching sound.
The mountain wind howls by.
A rustling sound.
"Hmm?" Teng Qing Shan's ears perked up, and he looked into the distance, about a hundred feet away. He saw a green snake slowly slithering, making very faint sounds, with a pair of cold golden pupils scanning its surroundings. The snake was over 40 feet long, as thick as a human thigh.
"Python is powerful! This green python can also be considered a demon beast. However, it's just an ordinary demon beast." Teng Qing Shan identified this at a glance, and it was the demon beast 'Green Python'.
However, a four-zhang-long green python posed no threat to Mount Qingcheng.
Unless it grows to ten zhang in length and undergoes a transformation, it becomes the three-chi-long 'Biqing Jiao'. The Biqing Jiao is small and slender, but its menacing power is in no way inferior to that of the 'Zigang Longwang' from Bihantang. This dragon's prowess does not necessarily increase with its size. Although the Biqing Jiao has a small build, its body is as hard as a divine soldier's, capable of being used as a weapon to kill people!
And it's highly toxic!
Even those with strong innate golden elixirs fear the 'Azure Green Python'.
"The speed at which the Green Python's venom spreads is just a testament to my ability to control blood flow, so I'd better be careful beforehand." Teng Qing Shan smiled as he looked at the green python, 'Green Python' was formidable, but its strength was only on par with that of a top expert from the Earth Ranking List.
Hoo! Hoo!
A strong gust of wind blew, and three scarlet shadows appeared in the distance, flying towards us. They grasped a branch, swung their bodies, and leapt tens of meters away.
Hong Qing's eyes lit up, and the three fiery red shadows were three-headed apes, with all-red fluffy fur! A pair of pupils was blue, but what was most special was that pair of long arms. The ape's long arms were even longer than its legs, and they were just as thick as its thighs.
Its sharp claws gleamed with a cold light.
" Iron Arm Ape!" Teng Qing Shan was convinced, "Finally saw the Iron Arm Ape!"
According to the book, what's most special about this Iron Arm Ape is its pair of forearms and its pair of front paws. Those arms have boundless strength, able to easily tear apart ferocious beasts. Moreover, those arms seem to be forged from divine weapons, impervious to swords and guns. The sharpest are still those claws, able to easily crush giant rocks.
"Iron Arm Ape, Iron Arm Ape! The most formidable thing is a pair of iron arms! Between the tearing arms, there are 100,000 kilograms of giant strength! Enough to kill the top masters of the "Earth List", according to the book, even the innate strong ones dare not come hard when facing this group of apes." Teng Qing Shan secretly admired.
Iron Arm Monkey, somewhat similar to myself.
His arms were extremely powerful.
Although I am stronger than Tie Bi Hou, if I were to be surrounded by dozens of them... Teng Qing Shan thought to himself and felt a sense of apprehension: "With arms that can exert 100,000 jin of force, and are impervious to blades and spears. With such immense strength infused into those sharp claws... I wonder if my body could withstand it."
Ordinary masters may use their full strength in one strike, but they cannot hurt Zhū Qīngshān.
But as for this Iron Arm Ape, Teng Qing Shan wasn't too confident.
"Ah! Ah!"
Three iron-armed monkeys let out a cry and then skillfully dispersed, surrounding the green python.
"Oh, Iron Arm Ape killing Green Python?" Teng Qing Shan was interested in watching.
"Hiss~~" The enormous body of the green python suddenly contracted, coiling up into a ball, its head held high, cold golden pupils fixed on the three Iron-Armed Apes. Apparently... these three Iron-Armed Apes posed a threat to it, and in this land of the Iron-Armed Apes, this was not its first battle with them.
"Ah, ah!"
"Ahhhhh!"
Three iron-armed monkeys surrounded the green python, making strange cries in their mouths. Suddenly, one of the iron-armed monkeys turned around and jumped to a nearby tree with a trunk as thick as a man's waist, hugged it, and then its sharp claws made a swift slash on the big tree, as if a knife had easily cut through the tree.
Wow!
The iron-armed ape hugged that sturdy big tree, let out a loud "Ah", and then violently smashed towards the green python.
"What a powerful arm, what sharp claws." Teng Qing Shan was secretly shocked. "A strength of 100,000 jin? It can only be more than that, not less." Teng Qing Shan became even more interested in this battle between the two demonic beasts.
Whoosh! The green snake's body suddenly darted forward.
Pomelo!
The giant tree crashed to the ground with a loud thud, but Qingyun had dodged it in advance. The iron-armed ape holding the tree trunk let out another shrill cry and swung the tree trunk at Qingyun's head with all its might. Confronted with the swinging tree trunk, Qingyun could only dodge again.
"Ah!" A loud shout!
Hoo! Hoo!
The two iron-armed monkeys that had been watching from the side suddenly darted out, taking advantage of the green python's momentary evasion from the crashing tree. One grabbed the python's tail, while the other pounced on the python's head. A snake's vital spot is usually located just behind its skull. Only by stabbing it there can one possibly kill the snake.
While in other positions, even piercing the body of a python, it is difficult to kill.
"Roar~~" The python let out a terrifying hiss, its tail suddenly whipping towards the iron-armed monkey, while its head twisted around and spat out a mouthful of green liquid.
Pomelo!
The green python's tail and the iron-armed monkey's sharp claws collided, and the iron-armed monkey rolled its body to dodge, while the green python's tail had a large wound, with fresh blood flowing out.
"Ah!" The other Iron-Armed Ape dodged immediately, avoiding the cyan liquid.
"Hehe~~"
A blue liquid fell on the mountain rock and immediately corroded a deep hole in the mountain rock.
"Pong!" The third iron-armed ape swung the big tree, taking advantage of Qingqing's struggle against the other two iron-armed apes, and slammed it onto Qingqing's trunk.
"Roar~~" The green python let out a painful cry, its body suddenly twisting violently, and it uprooted the big tree.
The other two iron-armed monkeys pounced again, and the green python only had time to whip one away with its tail.
"Hmph!"
A pair of sharp claws inserted into the body of the green python, and then pulled violently, the entire green python was cut in two, the green python screamed in pain and continued to convulse. At this time, the three-headed iron-armed ape jumped up simultaneously and easily killed the green python.
"Ah!"
"Ah ah!"
"Ah~~~~"
Three-headed iron-armed monkeys were happily shouting, one of the iron-armed monkeys grabbed a green snake gall and swallowed it in one gulp. Then, they carried the green python's corpse away with great enthusiasm.
In the distance of tens of zhang, hidden on top of a large tree, Ceng Qing Shan felt trouble: "No wonder it's a demon beast! With intelligence comparable to that of humans. Apparently, they know how to divide labor, one iron-armed ape uses the big tree to attack from afar, while the other two iron-armed apes launch close-range attacks. If Green Python responds even slightly slower, it will undoubtedly be dead. And... Iron-armed Ape is too agile!"
Iron Arm Ape's pair of arms and sharp claws, Mount Tengqin is not afraid.
But that flexible surname made him cautious.
Even the green python's deadly venom couldn't catch Iron Arm Ape off guard, as it dodged with ease. This evasive ability surpassed that of a typical "Earth List" expert.
"Once surrounded by a group of iron-armed monkeys, with their agility, it's hard to escape." Teng Qing Shan sighed quietly, "No wonder Master said that to get the 'Zhu Guo', one must use their brain and absolutely cannot force it. Hmm... following those iron-armed monkeys might lead me to where Zhu Guo is." Teng Qing Shan put away the water gourd into his bag, then shouldered the bag again and jumped down quietly.
Quietly, Teng Qing Shan followed Tie Bing behind.
