By noon, everyone was almost recovered. Chen Ke gathered everyone and prepared to enter the mountains ahead.
The location in Chen Ke's memory is in the mountains.
"Is there any danger ahead?" Chen Ke asked Xiang Xiaojiu.
Xiaojiu sniffed and said, "There is a very scary big guy in front of us."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Chen Ke even said: "Everyone should pay full attention and be careful."
"Yes!" Several strong men in the late Daoji realm nodded.
Wen Yu also said, "Me too."
Everyone came to the foot of the mountain. The mountain was not high, only a few tens of feet, not very big, with a radius of three or four miles. There are sparse trees and overgrown weeds on the mountain, and no animals can be seen walking through it.
"It's a barren mountain." A practitioner at the late stage of Daoji Realm said.
"Can you sense the location of the big monster in the mountain?" Chen Ke asked Xiang Xiaojiu.
Xiao Jiu is born spiritual and has a sense of danger. He also has a special way of sensing some existences with powerful auras.
Xiaojiu closed her eyes, and the spiritual energy in her body kept swimming. After a long time, she said: "It is sleeping and doesn't know we are coming. Inside the mountain, it seems that the entire mountain is filled with its breath."
After hearing this, several people couldn't help but darken their expressions. It seemed that this monster was more difficult to deal with than they thought.
Several people looked at each other and walked towards the mountain.
There is no road on the mountain. In order to reduce the use of spiritual power and prevent waking up the monsters in the mountain, a few people did not fly up, but walked up from the bottom of the mountain.
When he climbed to the top of the mountain, Chen Ke looked for the corresponding scenery around him according to the location in his memory.
"In the southwest, there should be a pool there." Chen Ke said.
There are sparse woods on the mountain, facing the light of the sun. When the sunlight shines down, it is the power of extreme yang. As for the power of extreme yin, Chen Ke has not yet discovered it.
The group of people walked forward again, passing through the long forest in front of the mountain and walking along the peak of the mountain for less than a hundred feet.
Sure enough, after bypassing a bluestone, there was a pool in front.
The pool is not big, about ten feet in diameter. The pool is clear, but the bottom cannot be seen.
"No!"
Chen Ke's face changed slightly, showing disappointment.
The water pool here is indeed a place where the power of extreme yin is condensed. It is surrounded by the power of extreme yang. This is a place of extreme yin and yang.
Wen Yu's face was not disappointed, but rather excited: "Found it!"
"Huh? Found it?" Chen Ke looked at Wen Yu unexpectedly. There was nothing outside the pool, not even a green grass. Where did he find it?
"Are you under the spell of psychedelic magic?" Chen Ke asked Xiang Wen Yu.
Wen Yu said: "You have never seen the Nine-leaf and Nine-flower Lotus, so you don't know what it looks like. I have seen the Nine-leaf and Nine-flower Lotus, so I naturally know what it looks like."
Hearing this, Chen Ke used his spiritual power to sense the surroundings of the pool, but did not sense any spiritual plants. The water did exude spirituality, but Chen Ke felt that the nine-leaf and nine-flower lotus would not grow in the water.
Wen Yu pointed to an azure pebble not far from the water's edge and said, "Did you see that stone?"
Chen Ke nodded and said, "I saw it."
Wen Yu smiled and said: "That is the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus. The leaves of the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus will wrap up and transform into a kind of stone. It may be like a pebble, it may be an ordinary bluestone, or it may be an ordinary yellow stone."
"How do you know it's from the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus?" Chen Ke asked. As he was about to walk over, Wen Yu pulled him back.
Wen Yu said: "Don't go there yet, there may be other things there."
"What?" Chen Ke asked.
Wen Yu said: "Every spiritual creature in the world is surrounded by ferocious beasts. Especially rare treasures such as the Nine-Leaf Nine-flower Lotus will be guarded by ferocious beasts. Look, you can't even see a beast here."
"You mean, the wild beasts around have been scared away by the guarding beasts." Chen Ke understood somewhat.
If there are no mosquitoes, rats, or ants in a place, especially in spring, it is enough to indicate that there is a more terrifying existence here, so that the mosquitoes, rats, and ants that exist by nature will not dare to come near.
Wen Yu nodded and said: "Exactly, I suspect that as long as we touch the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus, it will come out to attack us. As long as we don't move the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus, it will not show up."
"No matter whether there is danger or not, you must get the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus. I will get it. After you get it, you immediately rush back to Qingmu Sect with the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus and give it to Mingyue. I will stop the vicious beast here." Chen Ke said. .
Those who are capable of the treasures of heaven, materials and earth live here. Chen Ke came here only to obtain the treasures of heaven, materials and earth, and did not want to kill any living beings. Even though Chen Ke had no quarrel with the ferocious beast here, it was him who came to ask for spiritual objects.
But some things are not easy to give up. Even if he wants to be an enemy, he can't watch Ye Mingyue's spiritual veins disappear.
Wen Yu said: "Are you sure? There may be ferocious beasts guarding the front that are beyond the Condensing Core Realm. I just performed the Taoist Spiritual Scanning Technique and found nothing abnormal, indicating that its strength is already above the Condensing Core Realm. As for How strong it is, I don’t know.”
Chen Ke said: "Ye Mingyue is kind to me, and I will not leave it alone. Xiaojiu, once I get the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus, if a monster comes out, you immediately take the thing from my hand and leave. I will come to the rear."
A dark golden light flashed in Xiao Jiu's hand, and she took out her pumpkin hammer from the mustard box. She held up the hammer and said, "Xiao Jiu is also very powerful. Xiao Jiu will protect the general."
Chen Ke touched Xiao Jiu's head, her two bow ties fluttering in the wind, "Good boy, listen to me."
"Okay." Xiao Jiu said.
Chen Ke then looked at the three practitioners in the late Daoji realm and said: "You are going to set up formations to help me resist the monsters that may be killed and buy time for Wen Yu to leave. After the monster wakes up, it may not care about us. , will keep an eye on the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus, be sure to stop it for a while, and then you can escape."
"We live for Lingkong Mountain, how can we escape? We are willing to die for the sect master!" The three of them raised their hands in unison.
Chen Ke said: "This is my private matter, not a major matter of Lingkong Mountain. If you die for Lingkong Mountain, I won't feel guilty, but you shouldn't die for me. That's it, I won't either Take your lives in exchange for her practice."
Wen Yu was very surprised when she saw this situation. She said: "You are really the most unique sect leader I have ever seen. You don't look like a sect leader, but like a knight."
Chen Ke smiled, put his toes on the ground, and floated towards the pebbles diagonally behind the pool like a swallow.
Chen Ke grabbed the pebble with his hand and pulled it hard, but found that he couldn't pick up the pebble. He looked at Wen Yu and said, "If I use force, will it hurt it?"
Wen Yu said: "The rhizome of the Nine-Leaf Nine-flower Lotus is like iron and is connected with the earth. It is difficult to take. As for whether it will be hurt, I don't know."
Upon seeing this, Chen Ke decided to dig out the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus with his sword. He took out the Xuanjian from the Qiankun bag and slashed it hard against the ground, preparing to take out all the Nine-leaf Nine-flower Lotus and the soil at its roots.
Chen Ke's spiritual power attached to the pebbles and sensed the rhizome connecting it to the ground. Chen Ke suddenly discovered that the rhizome of the Nine-Leaf Nine-flower Lotus was several feet long.
The spiritual power in Chen Ke's hand quickly fell into the soil. As his last spiritual power was input into it, he dug out the contents of the soil.
Like a huge boulder, together with fresh soil, it was pulled out by Chen Ke, fixed with spiritual power, and pulled out from the top of the mountain.
"hiss!"
A sharp neighing sound came from the side, and a giant python-like monster with black stripes and green skin and full of scales suddenly jumped out of the pool.
When Wen Yu saw this, his expression changed drastically: "No, it's a giant anaconda that's about to turn into a dragon, at least in the Golden Core realm, hurry up!"
Wen Yu shouted and reminded Chen Ke to leave quickly.
Chen Ke turned to look at the giant anaconda coming out of the pool. Its vertical eyes looked at Chen Ke without any emotion, as if staring at an ant.
"No, you take this thing away, I will stay and struggle with it!" Chen Ke took out the broken wooden sign from his arms and prepared to fight to the death.
The giant anaconda stared at the nine-leaf and nine-flower lotus in Chen Ke's hand. Half of his body was above the water and half of his body was under the water.
Chen Ke threw the Nine-Leaf Nine-flower Lotus towards Wen Yu and shouted: "Set up an array and stop it!"
As Chen Ke moved, the giant anaconda also began to move. A stream of water vapor spread all over its body. Chen Ke was touched by the water vapor and vomited blood and flew backwards.
The formations set up by the three practitioners in the late Daoji realm also followed, and a ray of sword light slashed at the giant anaconda.
"when!"
Like the roaring sound of gold and stone clashing, the sword light was shattered, and the remaining two sword lights struck again at the same time, but they were still unable to break through the scales on the giant anaconda.
"hiss!"
The giant anaconda ignored the three people in the formation and just passed by them. The three of them seemed to have been hit hard, vomiting blood from their mouths, and fell from the air one after another.
Xiao Jiu quickly grabbed the pebbles, pulled Wen Yu and fled quickly on the clouds.
The giant anaconda behind him was chasing after him very quickly. Regardless of his injuries, Chen Ke stepped on the flying sword and chased after him again.
"The sky is falling apart!"
Regardless of everything, Chen Ke directly used the Heaven Collapse and Earth Splitting Fist. The power from the boxing skills gathered together and attacked the giant anaconda.
"boom!"
The power of the fist blasted through the water vapor on the giant anaconda, but it did not let the giant anaconda stop. Instead, the giant anaconda swung its tail and gave Chen Ke a blow.
Chen Ke only felt an irresistible force coming towards him. Dense blood seeped out from the pores on his arms. He couldn't bear the force and flew out again.
"Haha!" Xiaojiu warmed the pebbles and soil, turned around and punched the giant anaconda.
The giant anaconda neighed in its mouth, and just a sound shattered the fist mark that Xiao Jiu had hit.
"It's amazing!" Xiao Jiu blinked, but when he saw Chen Ke was beaten to the point of vomiting blood, Xiao Jiu raised the pumpkin hammer and attacked the giant anaconda.
Wen Yu took the pebbles and only looked back.
In mid-air, a little girl wearing a red waistcoat, holding a copper hammer in her hand, rushed towards a giant snake dozens of times bigger than her.
