Indestructible Primordial Spirit

  It was night, in the northern wilderness of Guojiantown, beside the Guoluo River, under the moonlight, a nimble figure was leaping about, sometimes like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, and sometimes like a spirit monkey jumping over a stream...

  This is Lu Buqi, whether in his past life or this life, wasting time is shameful for him. Bone Resonance Realm, for someone with only a bit of theoretical experience like him, requires encounters to comprehend. However, the inner strength level of Neijiaquan can be reached by 99% of people, as long as he has enough diligence.

  Talent can affect a person's achievement, but what Lu Boyan believes in most is still the effort of acquired skills. After all, even the orphans of Huaxia have heard the story of "The Injury of Zhong Yong".

  After running in the afternoon, Lu Buqi did not go to see what happened next, but came directly over here to wait for Wang Lishou's arrival.

  "What did you eat for dinner?" This was what Wang Lishou said as soon as he saw Lu Boyan, rushing over on foot at the hour of Zi.

  Lu Buqi smiled: "I caught two fish in the river, and then hit a few wild chickens in this forest where the bodies are buried. It's barely enough."

  "Not bad!" Wang Lishou nodded and threw a fairly large package aside: "It's just a pity that you don't seem to have brought any salt, it's hard to eat, isn't it?"

  "It's okay, I slightly overcooked it, there's a crispy feeling, but it's not bad to eat!" Lu Buqi slightly shrugged his shoulders: "Of course...it doesn't taste as good as when we were together exploring the dense forest."

  Wang Leshou crouched down, gazing at the Guolo River which seemed boundless and profound under the night sky: "In the blink of an eye, two years have passed... thinking back to that time... tsk, tsk, although it was perilous, it was also thrilling... if you weren't here, this life would probably be much less flavorful..."

  Lu Bu picked up a grass: "Nothing, I think you should find a woman, let her give birth to a child for you to play with."

  "Get out!" Wang Lishou chuckled: "It's really strange, how did you kid grow up with such a heart? I won't say what the situation is, and you won't ask, right? At your age, if I had encountered this kind of thing, I would have been frantic long ago. But you're fine, not worried at all..."

  "You've all arrived, what's the hurry?" Lu Buqi lay down: "But looking at Old Wang, you have a constipated look on your face, I think the situation might not be too optimistic!"

  "You're constipated! You stinky little kid!" Wang Lishou scolded with a smile, but quickly turned serious: "The situation is indeed not optimistic. The big manager helped you ask around and heard that someone in Zhutan Town saw you on those few days. The master's family has basically determined that you are the murderer, however..."

  Jian Wang Lishou stopped, Lu Buqi was somewhat surprised: "What's going on? Still hesitant?"

  "The steward said that if you choose to go back, he will follow you to Yangze and ask the second young master to come forward. There is still a 50% chance of saving you from trouble." Wang Lishou spread his hands: "I think this is too unreliable, so I don't want to say much."

  Lu Bu's mouth slightly curled up: "Fifty percent chance of success is a bit too low... Old Wang, do you have any better ideas?"

  "This idea is also bad!" Wang Lishou's expression was somewhat disheartened: "Even if we run, think of a way to leave Yangze County. But once you run, it will really become a fugitive escape, and at that time, the whole Yangze County will offer a reward for your capture..."

  "It sounds helpless, but one's life is always in their own hands!" Lu Buqi pinched the tip of his nose: "I have feet and a brain, I won't be caught that easily. Old Wang, tell me, how should I leave Yangze County, and where will I go after leaving?"

  "I can only analyze it for you, but the decision is yours to make." Wang Lishou said: "Yangze County is the westernmost territory of Yunze State, a border region. To its northwest lies the former Song State. However, with your current abilities, the possibility of going to the former Song State is less than one in ten."

  Lu Buji nodded: "I understand, I won't be able to pass the checkpoint, so I can only re-enter the dense forest and then venture into the perilous Difficult Mountain! And I've heard that Difficult Mountain is very dangerous..."

  Wang Leshou nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's extremely dangerous. The mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and high-level beasts can be seen everywhere. They're not like the low-level beasts in the dense forests of Guazhan, and even someone as powerful as the master of the house wouldn't dare to venture into those mountains alone."

  Lu Buji's heart skipped a beat: "Old Wang, is there still a distinction between high and low for this fine beast?"

  "Of course, didn't I tell you?"

  "Obviously not!" Lu Buqi replied in a bad mood: "In the past year, apart from telling me how to forge iron and boasting about your past achievements, you haven't told me anything else."

  Wang Lishou wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I thought I'd already told you, but this Jing Beast is also divided into levels like us martial artists. However, we martial artists are divided into three layers and twenty-seven levels, while the Jing Beast is divided into ten levels. The Jing Beast we encountered in Guo Yan Forest, judging by the depth of its core color, was at most only third-level."

  Lu Buji stared with his eyes wide open: "No way? How powerful is that tenth-level beast?"

  "The tenth-order beast, that's the one that has appeared in some rumors, it's an absolute ruler of a region, even a sneeze would make all beasts run away. Even if you're a hot-blooded warrior with nine layers of cultivation, you wouldn't be its match. I'm afraid only a strong master like the family head who uses the law of the mystic symbols might have a chance to subdue it!" Wang Lishou sighed with regret, he probably wouldn't have the chance to witness such a legendary thing in this lifetime.

  "Could it be that the Lianyun Mountain has such a high-level spiritual beast?" Lu Buqi was shocked in his heart, but he also understood that as the saying goes, "the fittest survive", and the reason why humans in this world can continuously innovate and reach new heights in martial arts is probably because of such immense pressure.

  Wang Leshou shook his head: "I don't know either, but the reason why the mountain is named 'Lian Nan Shan' is because a team of seven heroes from my Yun Ze country once ventured in and never returned. You should know that each of them was an expert in the Hot Blood Realm, and there were even two super experts who had reached the ninth level of the Hot Blood Realm. Do you think you can go in and come out alive?"

  Lu Buji shook his head with a self-aware smile: "No way! Old Wang, let's talk about something else!"

  "To the southwest is the endless sea, and for you alone it's a dead end!" Wang Lishou sat up with his knees bent, holding a branch to draw: "Only the east and southeast are left, these two sides are Hongshan County and Guling County, which border Yangze County."

  He paused, and Wang Lishou pointed to the east of Hongshan County: "To go to Hongshan County, except for the official road with private soldiers setting up cards, you have to cross the southern Dahong Mountain or take the northern Heishui Marsh; and to go to Guling County, you can only take the fog tide mountain connected to Dahong Mountain. Compared to Dahong Mountain, the difficulty of Fog Tide Mountain should be relatively small, because its depth is still inferior to that of Dahong Mountain."

  "You suggest I head to Fog Tide Mountain?" Lu Buqi's mouth curled up slightly, he actually wasn't completely unfamiliar with the geography of Yang Ze County.

  He had been living a decent life in Guazhan Town, with hope and motivation, so he hadn't thought about traveling alone. But unexpectedly, today an incident occurred that made him seriously consider this issue.

  This Fog Tide Mountain, although not as vast as the Great Flood Mountain, is still over a hundred miles wide, and most of it is rugged mountains and dense forests, with no human habitation in sight. The density of ferocious beasts here might be even greater than that of the Fruit Forest.

  "This is your best choice!" Wang Lishou nodded and said: "Moreover, compared to Hongshan County, Guling County has a more friendly relationship with our Yangze County."

  "I'm about to become a wanted fugitive in Yangze County, what's the point of being so friendly?" Lu Buqi's forehead furrowed with several black lines: "From what you're saying, the relationship between Hongshan County and my Yangze County isn't very good?"

  "It's really bad. The Lu and Wang families seem to have a deep-seated grudge, so in recent years, there have been several major conflicts between the two places, but they were all suppressed by Master Hou!"

  "Lu family?" Lu Buqi's sword-like eyebrows rose slightly: "The family that governs Hongshan County is surnamed Lu?"

  Wang Leshou nodded slightly without thinking much: "The Lu family is not comparable to the Wang family, and has been passed down for generations in Hongshan County, with a deeper foundation than the Wang family."

  Lu Buji lightly pinched the tip of his nose: "Then let's go to Hongshan County, Old Wang, Da Hongshan and Heishui Ze, which route do you think is safer?"

  "Go to Hongshan County?" Wang Leshou's eyebrows furrowed slightly before relaxing: "Alright... let's head to Da Hongshan, I heard the master of the house also ventured into Da Hongshan alone back in the day. At that time, he hadn't even reached the Hot Blood Realm yet! So, with your abilities, you should have more than a 50% chance of making it through."

  Lu Buqi nodded: "Then it's Dahong Mountain... But once I leave, my parents and the Northwest household..."
