Chapter 20

"You actually captured a mutated swift alive?"

"How did you do it?"

Shang Xia was greatly surprised by Tian Mengzi and Yuan Zilu's continuous inquiries.

Although the flying speed of the mutated swift is extremely fast, it seems that it is not difficult to catch Tian Mengzi and Yuan Zilu's cultivation.

It's just a mutated swift, so it's not a big deal, is it?

As if understanding the doubts in Shang Xia's heart, Tian Mengzi said directly: "This mutant swift flies extremely fast and has a strong temperament. Even with the strength of me and Lao Jin, it is extremely difficult to catch one or two..."

Speaking of this, Tian Mengzi looked at the mutated Swift in Shang Xia's hand again, and couldn't help but clicked his lips, and said in a somewhat inexplicable tone: "Of course, this matter is not too difficult for Deacon Yuan..."

Yuan Zilu shook his head, and there was a bit of envy in his tone, and he said: "The mutated swifts have a strong temperament, even if Yuan can catch one or two, these swifts will immediately choose to kill themselves after finding that there is no way to escape! "

Shang Xia looked at the mutated Swift who was a bit sluggish but did not show any tendency to self-harm. Although he felt a little strange in his heart, he still said, "Maybe it's because of the supernatural power I have practiced that can make this mutated Swift feel numb all over. , helpless?"

While talking, Shang Xia put the mutated Swift into a cage made of string rattan that Huang Zihua handed over, and hung it on the side of the carriage where he was.

Some mutated beasts often appear in the battlefields of the two worlds, and their value is extremely high.

Among them, the living mutated beasts were the most valuable, but they were also the most difficult to catch, but that didn't mean they had never been caught.

"No, no, no," Tian Mengzi shook his head, and said, "You underestimate this mutant bird, it's not as simple as you imagined, believe me, in order to capture the living mutant swift, the extraordinary warrior on Tongyou Peak, Almost exhausted all conceivable methods, but in the end it was still powerless to stop the mutant swift from committing suicide."

Yuan Zilu looked at the mutated Swift in the cage.

At this time, the mutated Swift seemed exhausted and depressed, but it didn't look like it was planning to commit suicide.

There was a strange look in his eyes, and Yuan Zilu said: "It seems that your control over the power of supernatural powers has been improving, but you are afraid that you will spend energy along the way to prevent it from committing suicide at any time. Kill it, at least you can get a whole body."

Shang Xia's heart moved, and he asked: "Is there anything special about this living mutated swift that is so favored by extraordinary fighters from Tongyou Peak?"

"You do not know?"

This time it was Tian and Yuan's turn to be surprised, and Tian Mengzi even asked: "Then why did you think of capturing the mutant swift alive? This is much more difficult than killing a mutant swift."

Shang Xia smiled, and said: "I came on a whim, and wanted to exercise my control over supernatural powers, it just happened by chance."

Tian and Yuan looked at each other, and Tian Mengzi said with a strange expression, "It's just like this?"

"Then what else?"

Shang Xia's expression looked innocent.

However, in the eyes of Tian Mengzi, especially some of the inner house students who knew about it, some of them deserved to be beaten for being cheap and being good-looking.

Perhaps it was because Shang Xia's expression made people feel very uncomfortable, Tian Mengzi immediately sold a pass, saying: "When you arrive at Tongyou Peak, you will understand!"

Shang Xia didn't know why, but neither Tian Mengzi nor Yuan Zilu seemed too lazy to say much, but he could only temporarily hide his doubts in his heart.

After a brief repair, the team set off again, and Shang Xia once again received a wave of admiration mixed with envy.

However, Shang Xia has long been accustomed to this, and has long been flattered and humiliated.

However, he had a lot of doubts in his heart at this time. Knowing that Tian Mengzi intended to replace Sun Haiwei's teaching duties, he naturally would not let go of the opportunity to ask for advice.

"Senior Brother Tian, ​​do those mutated swifts only appear on rainy days? Is the reason why they mutate are also due to the impact of the origin of the two worlds in the battle between the two worlds?"

Tian Mengzi didn't care about the little episode just now. Hearing Shang Xia's advice, he nodded and smiled and said, "It is true that mutant swifts often appear on rainy days, but the weather in the two realms is unpredictable, and the pattern of appearance and disappearance of mutant swifts is also unpredictable. .”

"However, there are rumors about the reason for the mutation of the swift populations in the two realms, but it is not only due to the origin of the two realms, but also because the swift populations from the two realms interbreed to form a brand new swift population."

Shang Xia couldn't get enough of what he heard, he felt that Tian Mengzi didn't seem to have finished speaking, but Tian Mengzi obviously didn't want to say any more, so he changed back to the previous topic and continued to ask for advice after thinking about it.

"Senior Brother Tian, ​​as far as I know, when Youzhou fell, there were not a few surviving Extraordinary warriors, and most of them escaped during the formation of the Two Realms Battlefield. Why weren't those people affected and became...uh ..."

The formation of the Battlefield of the Two Realms was only twenty years ago, and most of the survivors are still there. Even if Shang Xia and others entered for the first time, they are not too unfamiliar with the Battlefield of the Two Realms.

In fact, the entire Tongyou Academy was established by the surviving extraordinary warriors in Youzhou after the formation of the two realms.

As a direct descendant of the Shang family and the grandson of the deputy head of Tongyou College, Shang Xia knows far more than ordinary students.

It's just that when he was about to say "become a living corpse", he suddenly realized that it seemed a bit disrespectful to say so. After all, even in the Shang family, since grandfather Shang Bo, there are many people who escaped from the battle between the two worlds. survivor.

Tian Mengzi thought for a while, and said: "Although I haven't experienced the fall of Youzhou and the formation of the two realms, I have heard from several teachers in the college that the impact of the original tide of the two realms is a huge blow to ordinary people. It is a disaster, but for most extraordinary warriors, as long as they survive the initial impact of the original source, the rest is only chance."

Speaking of this, Tian Mengzi seemed to be a little bit unfinished, and continued after a little pondering: "In fact, the extraordinary warriors who survived the newly formed two-world battle field, in the next short period of time, all entered A period of rapid advancement in cultivation."

"Because of this, even when most of Youzhou fell and the extraordinary warriors suffered heavy losses in general, those who survived quickly regrouped and occupied an important place like Tongyou Peak in the battle between the two worlds. The extraordinary warriors in the Cangling Realm have formed a twenty-year-long confrontation, and even established the Tongyou Academy outside the entrance of the two realms to train successors."

Some of the information revealed by Tian Mengzi's words were known to Shang Xia, and some of them were heard for the first time.

On the other hand, the other students in the foreign house didn't know much about what happened back then, so they all listened with great interest.

Tian Mengzi smiled and said: "Actually, these are not secrets. After two months, when you enter the inner house, these are the things you need to learn. I just told you in advance."

At this time, a voice suddenly asked: "Senior Brother Tian, ​​since most of these living corpses were mutated from Youzhou people who died twenty years ago, is it still possible to identify them based on their clothes and appearance? And they Is there a regularity in the activity trajectory?"

Shang Xia gave the speaker a strange look. This person was called Meng Liangchen, and he was also a student with great perfection in qi and blood, standing on the threshold of extraordinary.

It's just that this person is a bit gloomy on weekdays, and Shang Xia doesn't have much contact with him.

Tian Mengzi was slightly taken aback when he heard this question, looked at the speaker with a slightly solemn tone, and said, "What do you want to say?"

Meng Liangchen didn't seem to notice the change in Tian Mengzi's tone, and said seriously: "If there are really traces of the activities of these living corpses, I want to look for the remains of our Meng family in the Battlefield of the Two Realms."

"Are you a member of the Meng family in Youzhou?"

Tian Mengzi's expression suddenly changed, but then he muttered: "I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

As he said that, Tian Mengzi glanced at him, and said: "Aside from the fact that you haven't stepped into the threshold of extraordinary warriors, let's say that extraordinary in the two realms includes more than half of Youzhou, plus the one that annexed the Cangling world back then." Partly, the two areas are not just spliced ​​together, but completely integrated, the geographical conditions are complex, coupled with frequent changes in topography and landforms, it is comparable to the vicissitudes of life, how easy is it to find the previous address?"

After all, Tian Mengzi seemed to think of something, shook his head and sighed: "It's not surprising that you have such an idea, in fact, many people had such an idea long after the original tide in the two realms subsided, Entering the Battlefield of the Two Realms to find the bases of the extraordinary forces in Youzhou back then, but in the end the result was very little gain, and many lives were lost instead..."

Hearing this, Meng Liangchen couldn't help showing a trace of sadness on his face.

"It's not entirely hopeless..."

Suddenly, a slightly unfamiliar voice attracted everyone's attention.

All sentient beings heard the prestige and looked around, but saw that the person who spoke was Jin Guanchao who was standing not far from them.

He was standing there a long time ago, and my eyes have swept over him.

Shang Xia suddenly remembered, but there was a strange look on his face, and he ignored the existence of this person again.

"Old Jin, you..."

Tian Mengzi had a puzzled look on his face, apparently some friend unexpectedly spoke up on his own initiative.

Jin Guanchao's expression seemed a little dull, and he only heard him say: "Most of the fresh 'living corpses' crawling out of the ground come from the ruins!"

Jin Guanchao's words were very short, and many people were puzzled.

Tian Mengzi has already understood, and explained to everyone: "The terrain here changes frequently. After the fall of Youzhou, many extraordinary powers were stationed deep in the ground, but they remained intact because of the prohibition and formation."

"But as time goes by, those formations will also be damaged due to consumption, so there will be living corpses crawling out of the ground, and often the bodies and clothes are relatively well preserved."

"Because these living corpses come from the relics of extraordinary powers, most of them are clansmen and servants in front of them, and they have special marks of the extraordinary powers on their bodies. People can often identify their identities through these, and sometimes they can find the relics along the way where."

Meng Liangchen showed excitement when he heard the words, and said: "Then, did the two senior brothers have any news about my Meng family?"

Tian Mengzi smiled and said, "If there is no news, isn't it good news?"

Although Meng Liangchen was slightly disappointed, he also understood what Tian Mengzi said.

At this time, Jin Guanchao suddenly said: "Not long ago, some fresh corpses wearing Zhu's clothes were discovered..."
