He still had to complete the sect's mission to find the molten gold stone. Yang Xian chose a direction at random and walked with his sword. Half a quarter of an hour later, a group of black birds appeared in the distant horizon.
Yang Xian quickly stopped flying with his sword, took out the Hidden Spirit Clothes and put it on his body, then landed on a small mountain peak and waited for the birds to leave. He was careless and got a little carried away after his breakthrough in cultivation.
Yang Xian stared closely at the black birds in the sky. They were a group of birds similar to what mortals would call crows. When Yang Xian looked at the leading black bird with a golden feather in the middle of its head, he knew that this bird was the entire black bird. The leader.
The leader of the birds had a first-level Dzogchen cultivation level, and his aura was overwhelming. Yang Xian quickly looked away, because the senses of spiritual beasts are very keen. If you stare for a long time, you may be discovered. If you are beaten by a group of birds, It is still very difficult to survive.
This group of black birds flew over Yang Xian's head at an extremely fast speed. It looked like they were escaping. Fortunately, the direction of their escape was not towards the place where the water, fire and spiritual energy gathered. Otherwise, the other sixteen fellow sect members would not be able to escape. will be in danger.
Even though the birds had flown away, Yang Xian was still motionless at this time, because Yang Xian saw two escaping lights following closely behind. They were two Foundation-building monks walking with swords. The monk said: "Brother Hua, whoever of us takes down which beast first will be the spiritual beast."
"Brother Meng's words are very much what I want." The foundation-building monk in dark blue replied.
Two escaping lights accelerated and flew over Yang Xian's head, reaching a speed of 1,500 miles per hour. Yang Xian looked at the two foundation-building monks in the sky, meditating.
The two foundation-building monks did not hide their true appearance. Yang Xian could tell the identity of the two foundation-building monks at a glance with his powerful eyesight. The one in dark blue clothing was Meng Haohua, the leading disciple of the Meng family of the third-grade sect in the Five Elements Secret Realm. The one in dark blue clothing was The foundation-building monk is Hua Yilong, the leading disciple of the fourth-grade beast-controlling sect in the Five Elements Secret Realm.
It's just that now the two of them are no longer Dzogchen monks at the tenth level of Qi refining, but monks at the early stage of foundation establishment. Yang Xian still can't figure out exactly how many true energy turns there are in the early stage of foundation establishment.
Yang Xian looked at the behavior of the two walking together and fell into deep thought. The Meng family and the beast-controlling sect were so closely connected. Combined with the situation in the secret realm, Yang Xian felt that he had discovered an important piece of news, and his thoughts were whirling. Next, during the ten-year period mentioned by master Shen Liyun, such signals have been released, and it is estimated that something big is about to happen.
Yang Xian waited until Meng Haohua and Hua Yilong's escaping light completely disappeared from the field of vision before starting again. This time Yang Xian was not flying with a sword, but relying on his body skills to shuttle through the lava mountains. Although the speed was not very fast, it was safe. It's guaranteed, and you can also find molten gold stones at the same time.
It is not easy to obtain the molten gold stone. Yang Xian searched for more than half a month and searched hundreds of large and small volcanoes but could not find the molten gold stone. It seems that this sect's task is indeed not simple.
I don't know if molten gold stones can be found in the inner areas of the lava mountains. This thought flashed across my mind. Yang Xian did not dare to go deeper into the lava mountains. After all, he was basically just a small Qi Refining Stage monk, right in the middle. Just move around the area, but you have to be careful.
Since the molten gold stone cannot be found near the crater, we can only go deep into the crater and look for it near the magma fire.
It's just that it would be much more dangerous to go deep into the crater and get close to the magma and earth fire, because without the true energy protection, it would be difficult to isolate the damage caused by the magma and earth fire to the physical body. However, since I have body refining skills to rely on, I shouldn't be too affected.
Yang Xian did it as soon as he thought of it, while carefully searching for possible molten stones in each crater, and at the same time paying attention to the possibility of "the coming of the Flame Dragon" in the lava mountains, or having already experienced the situation after the arrival of the Flame Dragon, so that he could use the help of the Flame Dragon After the birth of the volcano, the crater entered the magma.
If you rely on manpower to drill through the ground to reach the magma and fire layer, this thankless task will be difficult for other monks to achieve except for senior monks in the late stage of foundation building and above.
Often a sect family will do such thankless things in order to ensure the needs of alchemy and weapon refining. This is the foundation of a sect family. This is the condition and foundation that a second-grade sect family should have.
The Lava Mountains are located south of the Lingjian Sect and the Yinhun Mountains. Many monks are accustomed to calling the vast southern area south of the Lava Mountains and south of the Lingjian Sect the Southern Territory. Among them, the Meng family, a third-grade family, is in the Southern Territory. The power that carries the tripod in the Southern Region.
The resources for cultivating immortals in the Southern Territory are extremely rich, and the Lava Mountains are a treasure trove of resources. Many casual cultivators and monks from small sect families often go to the Lava Mountains to find chance treasures.
The phenomenon of "volcano eruption" in the lava mountains is often affectionately called by the monks in the Southern Region: "The Coming of the Flame Dragon". Every time you encounter the "coming of the Flame Dragon", it means that it is possible to harvest extraordinary treasures, because "The Coming of the Flame Dragon" often erupts precious treasures from deep underground magma, and even some genius treasures are not uncommon.
Yang Xian is currently located in the central area of the lava mountains. For monks in the late stage of Qi refining and early stage of foundation building, this area is relatively rich in resources and has a low risk factor. If you want to obtain more precious resources, then You need to go deeper into the lava mountains.
The lava mountains cover an extremely large area, with an unknown number of thousands of miles, stretching from north to south. It is said that they can extend southward to the southern seas, but no monk has ever crossed the lava mountains to reach the southern seas.
Time passed like running water, and Yang Xian searched again for half a month. He only got some first-level ores, but not the molten gold stone. Yang Xian could only continue to search for it with persistence.
Thanks to the power of divine consciousness, the search efficiency in each crater area is high, and with the help of Hongyu, Yang Xian harvested several additional fire-attribute herbs and elixirs that are over a century old, such as fire ginseng and fire spirit grass. Wait, these extra gains are better than nothing.
Yang Xian gave full play to the advantages of the Hidden Spirit Clothes, and except for necessary battles, he got things done without even realizing it.
Now Yang Xian's vision is extremely high. Unless it is a late-level first-order spiritual beast that is barely worthy of his own action, under normal circumstances, Yang Xian would not bother to take action. Killing the weak is not the work of the strong.
When encountering a team of monks, Yang Xian would not deliberately make enemies of them and wantonly kill these monks who entered the lava mountains to hunt for treasures. If he relied on his own strong strength to kill the monks wantonly, then it would be no different from evil cultivators. The road to immortality would not be the same. long.
Having said that, it is worth mentioning that Yang Xian, who had been searching for more than half a month, accidentally arrived at the border between the middle and outer areas of the lava mountain range.
There were so many treasure-hunting monks in the outer area. Yang Xian met many teams that formed treasure hunts. Most of them were mainly monks in the early and middle stages of Qi Refining. They were even several times more numerous than the Spirit Beast Forest in the northern part of the Spirit Sword Sect.
Yang Xian also came to this area because he was not familiar with the geographical location of the lava mountains during the search. Seeing such a scene, Yang Xian was extremely shocked. He had long heard that the southern region was a private land for casual cultivators, small families and sects, but he had not seen it in person. Once you have been there, you would never know that the cultivation environment here is even better than the legend.
Yang Xian learned from some of Li Qinglian's memories that the area where Li Qinglian used to live was the Southern Territory, but the specific details were unclear. The Southern Territory was really a nice place.
However, Yang Xian, who had not yet completed his sect mission, had no intention of delving into the surroundings of the lava mountains. Instead, he chose a direction to continue looking for molten stones in the central area.
Although molten gold stones are rare, they are not scarce. As long as you have patience, you can still find them. This sect mission is an experience in the lava mountains. The main purpose is to break through the cultivation level. Unexpectedly, it was completed ahead of schedule. Even though the sect mission was If you fail to complete it, you will be fined up to double your contribution points, which is not very important to you.
As soon as his mentality was corrected, luck seemed to follow him. Yang Xian found a crater. The time for "The Coming of the Flame Dragon" had passed, but the interior of the crater had not been closed yet and was still open. This made Jiu Yang Xian, who was looking for traces of magma and fire, was overjoyed.
Although the best harvest time for this volcano crater has passed, it is not too late for Yang Xian. The goal is to reach the magma fire to search for treasures. Yang Xian looked at the monks who had gone deep into the magma. He could not see it even with his spiritual eyes. There are four monks in his cultivation level.
Then these four monks should be monks above the foundation level. The monks in the Qi Refining Stage are now basically unable to hide their cultivation from themselves. Because the spiritual thoughts have transformed into divine consciousness, the Qi Refining Stage monks cannot hide their cultivation in front of themselves. for.
The risk was too great for the four monks in the foundation building stage. Yang Xian planned to wait. After all, there were many monks in the late stage of Qi Refining waiting around, about 9 of them. Yang Xian joined the waiting team.
This is the law of the jungle in the world of cultivating immortals. High-level cultivators are like privileged people. When all the meat has been eaten and the benefits have been reaped, it is the turn of low-level monks, because high-level monks demand far more resources than low-level monks. A level cultivator.
In the world of cultivating immortals, mortals want to cultivate immortality, low-level Qi-refining monks want to become foundation-building monks to dominate, foundation-building monks want to become golden elixir monks and proclaim their ancestors, and golden elixir monks want to become high-level monks to achieve immortality... ...the desires are endless.
Since you are a Qi Refining Monk, you should do your duty as a Qi Refining Monk. It is best to wait for the Foundation Establishment Monk to complete the search before entering. Otherwise, if you enter hastily, it will be a tragedy if you are cleared.
The waiting time was always long. Yang Xian and nine other monks sat on the crater rocks and meditated, scattered in an orderly manner.
Except for Yang Xian, the other nine people were divided into four teams. One person formed a team alone like Yang Xian, and the remaining eight people formed teams in pairs and relied on each other. After all, the power of a team is far greater than that of an individual. Even if it is a temporary team, It also has an advantage on the surface.
Two hours later, the ten people in the crater heard a rumbling sound coming from the ground of the volcano, like thunder in the sky. There was even a little magma emerging from the only huge crater.
This scene made the ten people waiting outside start to alert. The four foundation-building seniors seemed to be restless underground!
And the sound got closer and closer. Suddenly, four insect pupae wrapped in fiery red ants emerged from the huge magma cave mouth and scattered in four directions. At the same time, a steady stream of fiery red ants emerged from the magma field in the crater. The flames flew out.
The ten people outside instantly recognized the identity of these ants: "Spirit-eating Fire Ants". This kind of spiritual insect lives in places with abundant fire aura, especially in magma and ground fires. Feeding on various ores and genius treasures, he is extremely powerful and vicious, and has a reputation in the Southern Territory.
The ten monks outside, including Yang Xian, were all ready to escape. Even the foundation-building monks were attacked. They, the Qi-refining monks, had no choice but to feed the soul-devouring fire ants. Yang Xian also pretended to run away while distractedly checking. Is there any opportunity to take advantage of?
After all, the four foundation-building monks gained a lot from the magma fire. Yang Xian couldn't get in by himself. Now that he encountered such a good opportunity, he couldn't miss it.
Looking at the four foundation-building monks wrapped in red flaming ants, Yang Xian guessed that it was the aura of the true essence shield that attracted the soul-eating fire ants. After all, the true essence was a concentrated and advanced version of the aura, which especially attracted the soul-eating fire ants.
At this time, the four foundation-building monks can only rely on their true essence to resist the soul-devouring fire ants, and use their true essence to continuously support the true essence shield. In other words, the four foundation-building monks at this time are at their weakest. , except for the True Essence Shield, unable to perform any other actions, Yang Xian felt that the opportunity had come.
This is really an opportunity to get rich overnight. As long as you kill a foundation-building monk, you can get all of his net worth. Yang Xian thought of this, and the greedy beast in his heart awakened. The net worth of the foundation-building monk is really amazing. So excited!
The ants following Yang Xian also planned to crawl on Yang Xian, but Yang Xian did not use the spiritual energy shield to put himself in danger. Instead, he used the Sword Shadow Technique to escape and ran towards a foundation-building monk. Chase in the direction, this is a good opportunity to kill and seize treasure.
There are many smart and bold monks. Yang Xian left with a foundation-building monk. A team of monks at the ninth level of Qi Refining also left with a foundation-building monk. Two teams of four also left with two other foundation-building monks. , seems to have formed a tacit understanding.
There were three teams of six people who did not risk their lives, but left with their swords, leaving the vortex of right and wrong.
Whether he chooses to take risks or to protect himself wisely, it is the path chosen by the monks themselves, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
