The shopkeeper's words made Xu Yang nod silently.
He is naturally knowledgeable and saw how extraordinary this thing was.
Regardless of the map, this black turtle shell is worth at least two to three hundred spirit stones, even if it is used as a talisman-making material.
"Okay, five hundred spirit stones, I bought them."
Five hundred spiritual stones, he planted a few medicinal plants and came.
It’s not expensive either, just buy it.
As for whether to go to this place in the future...
Xu Yang decided not to go this time. It would not be too late to go when he becomes stronger.
After paying the spirit stone, Xu Yang left here with the purchased talismans and materials, as well as the black turtle shell.
Following the route map, Xu Yang headed to the waters of the Liuhe River.
Here, he saw many monks coming and going, in small groups, preparing to walk on the ice together.
"Huhuhu..."
The cold wind is biting and freezing.
Fortunately, Xu Yang was wearing a second-level mid-level robe and could not feel any coldness.
Looking at the endless Liuhe River, Xu Yang sighed.
The scenery in front of me is extremely spectacular and scary.
"Buzz, buzz..."
at this time.
The water element elf in the storage bag reacted.
"Huh?? Found the water orb."
Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, but soon, he received information from the water elemental elf that water-based medicinal materials had appeared, a hundred meters away in front of him, deep in the water.
Although no water-based orbs were found, this was a preliminary verification of the role of water elemental elves.
"Is this fellow Taoist alone??"
At this moment, a gentle female voice came from behind.
She was a woman who looked to be in her thirties or forties, accompanied by two monks in their forties or fifties.
"I'm alone, are you okay?"
Xu Yang secretly looked at these three people. Judging from the auras of the two male monks, their strength was around the middle level of foundation building.
Female cultivators are in the later stage of foundation building.
"We are disciples of the Kuangfeng Sect. My name is Hu Ke. This time we are planning to go deep into the Liuhe River and go to a place called Xiaoye Island to look for opportunities. I wonder if fellow Taoists are interested in joining us??"
The nun smiled and nodded.
Under every big force, there are also some small forces.
Most of these small forces are unable to enter large sects, so they switch to smaller sects.
The three people in front of me are quite old. They are only in the late stages of ordinary foundation building, and they are obviously of average cultivation.
Xu Yang thought for a while and realized that these three people did not pose any threat to him.
Then, you can cooperate with them.
The main reason is that he is very unfamiliar with this place, and having a map is useless because you don’t know whether the map is real or not! !
There is no official map here.
Secondly, the map is not standard, and the dangers in some places are not marked on it.
With this in mind, Xu Yang decided to cooperate with them.
"My name is Wang Dabao."
Xu Yang does not intend to use his real name.
"I plan to look for water-based orbs this time. I wonder if there is such a thing on Xiaoye Island?"
Xu Yang looked at the three people and asked.
As the strongest female cultivator, Hu Ke has the best attitude.
The person on the left, named Lu Feilong, had a normal attitude and explained: "I have never heard of water-based orbs appearing on Xiaoye Island, but they have appeared in some waters nearby. You can go and have a look then."
The person on the right looks to be the oldest and has a strong body. From visual inspection, he should be a monk practicing physical training.
His name was Lu Shatian and he showed an honest smile: "How is it? Are you interested in joining us??"
While talking, these three people were also communicating secretly.
Speaking from my heart.
Under normal circumstances, they would not invite others to join the team for no reason.
But there's no way this time.
A female disciple who was with us encountered a calamity on the way here a few days ago, and her body and soul disappeared.
Combination Formation cannot be cast now.
On the way to Xiaoye Island, there may be poisonous obstacles. Just in case, Xu Yang can only be invited.
Fortunately, they secretly observed Xu Yang for a long time with only their naked eyes.
I found Xu Yang looking at the water, obviously looking very strange.
Such new monks usually come here purely to find some opportunities, or simply to earn some living expenses.
So they decided to have a chat with Xu Yang.
Seemingly sensing Xu Yang's suspicion, Hu Ke said quickly: "Fellow Taoist, if you enter this water alone, even if it is winter and the river has been frozen, there will still be some risks!! Just like when we go there! Xiaoye Island, there is a poison barrier on the outside, and we need to work together to enter."
Then, he talked about the combined attack formation.
"Okay, let's go together then."
"Okay!! This is the formation disk. When the four of us open the formation disk together, the protective power will be automatically activated."
Hu Ke smiled.
"However, I may have to leave alone at that time to find water orbs..."
"Since we are working together, after we go to Xiaoye Island, we can go back and help fellow Taoists find water orbs together. The time limit is three days. What do you think?"
Xu Yang understands.
He helped the three people enter Xiaoye Island and asked about the opportunities there.
A few days later, they helped him out again, and then searched for the three-day water orb.
Unable to find it, everyone went their separate ways.
Very cost effective.
For Xu Yang, it was just a matter of borrowing the experience of these people to adapt to the environment here.
The two sides hit it off immediately.
In this way, the four people flew towards Xiaoye Island.
…………
…………
Half an hour later.
There are fewer and fewer people around.
Soon, only the three of them were left.
Xu Yang was naturally wary of this person, but soon he felt relieved.
Because not far away, in the water, a big python suddenly rushed out.
"Whoosh!!"
Hu Ke threw a protective talisman towards Xu Yang: "Fellow Taoist Wang Dabao, be careful."
In fact, Xu Yang had already discovered the giant python.
He didn't say anything just now, but he also wanted to see the strength of this group of people.
After a battle, Hu Ke, as the strongest combatant, easily defeated this first-level, top-grade python.
"Snake gallbladder is worth two hundred spirit stones, not bad."
Hu Ke asked Lu Feilong to go down, and Lu Feilong got the order and went down to get the snake gallbladder.
In the evening.
Xu Yang's consciousness spread and he finally discovered the outline of Xiaoye Island.
This is a small island shaped like a leaf. The island is very small, about the size of a dozen football fields.
There are no trees on the island, it is all composed of blackened rocks and poisonous swamps.
On the periphery of the island, there is a layer of gray mist. In Hu Ke's words, this island was formed by the eruption of a poisonous volcano under the water.
There is a poisonous lizard living on the island.
Very powerful.
Although most of them are of second-level bloodline, their defense power is amazing, and ordinary first-level magic weapons cannot hurt it.
The poisonous lizard produces extremely poisonous substances. Even if it dies, its body will automatically release poisonous smoke to contaminate a place.
Although as a foundation-building monk, his body is protected by protective magic at all times, and he also has talismans with him.
However, that is only useful for a short period of time, but over time it becomes very troublesome.
"When we encounter this kind of poisonous lizard, remember to just injure it, but don't kill it, otherwise it will release poisonous gas, which will be very troublesome."
Hu Ke said this mainly because he looked at Xu Yang.
Xu Yang nodded to express understanding.
"Speaking of which, what did you come here to find?" Xu Yang was flying while recovering the mana he had consumed along the way.
Then, he took a pill for himself.
"Volcanic stone crystal, our master is going to create a third-level, medium-grade or above magic weapon."
Hu Ke explained.
Xu Yang was speechless.
Is this the life of a small sect?
The masters of all major sects give magical weapons to the people below.
This Guangfeng Sect is good, the apprentice will find materials for the master.
"By the way, fellow Taoist Wang Dabao, what are you doing looking for the water orb?"
Hu Feilong nodded talkatively and asked with a smile.
These three people have been flying with Xu Yang for so long, and after talking, they have a general understanding of Xu Yang's temperament.
Xu Yang's cultivation is in the late stage of foundation building and he is very strong.
But he is humble and unsmiling. Although his face looks a bit vulgar, as the saying goes, you should not be judged by appearance.
They didn't think that Xu Yang's face was a mask.
Although Xu Yang often wears masks, in fact, it is because he is rich, so he has prepared them for himself and his wife, and even prepared several masks.
For ordinary monks, a good mask can easily cost thousands or tens of thousands. How can they be willing to spend such money? ?
Even if you buy it, at most buy a cheaper one.
Finally, they came to a barrier of poisonous mist.
At Hu Ke's signal, Xu Yang took out the array disk.
This formation is divided into two levels: upper and lower.
The thickness of the palm of your hand, the upper layer is smaller and can be twisted.
Hu Ke had already taught Xu Yang how to use it before.
Xu Yang checked it through his spiritual consciousness and knew that this thing had no traps or other traps and was very safe.
"Click!!"
After twisting it, input spiritual power and automatically connect with four other people.
Randomly, four formation disks formed a combined formation. The powerful protective power was actually comparable to that of the Golden Core, and it was the strength of the Golden Core in the middle stage! !
With the strength of Jin Dan, there is no need to worry.
The four people were divided into four corners: east, west, north and south. They stepped directly on the ice and walked forward.
"Huh!!"
Hu Ke, who was walking at the front, suddenly noticed some small footprints on the ground.
"What's wrong??"
Lu Shatian asked in a hoarse voice.
"Look, there are footprints on the ice in the middle of the poisonous fog. Judging from the shape of the feet, they are not big. They should not be male footprints."
Hu Ke explained.
Immediately, he squatted down, touched the footprints, and finally came to a conclusion.
It should be the footprints left in the morning.
"This person is quite strong. When he passed here, he must have used a protective talisman. He was very strong, so his feet stepped on the ice, leaving a dent."
"She must have been injured. The footprints are one deep and one shallow."
Hu Ke looked at the people behind him, "What should I do??"
Although Hu Ke is the strongest in this small team, she is a woman after all. When encountering key problems, she will instinctively panic.
In fact, at this time, Xu Yang had already discovered the previous situation through his spiritual consciousness.
A girl who only had the strength to practice Qi was lying sideways on the edge of the rocks on the island, her Qi was empty.
Xu Yang guessed that it should be the footprints left by her.
If she had a strong protective talisman, her footprints would indeed leave dents.
Seeing that there was no danger there, Xu Yang suggested that he could go and have a look.
He didn't want to waste time and retreated when encountering some minor problems.
"Fellow Taoist Wang Dabao is right. Since this person is injured, we don't need to be afraid. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to retreat now."
Lu Feilong glanced at Xu Yang, worried that if Xu Yang left then they would have to find someone else.
If you look for someone else, you may not be able to find someone as harmless as Xu Yang.
"OK!!"
Hu Ke nodded.
Soon, after passing through the poisonous gas area, in front of them was an island with a hazy land of scorched black land. The island was radiating heat.
"The injured woman is there."
Hu Ke jogged a few steps and walked over.
This injured woman looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was at the sixth or seventh level of Qi training, and her strength was very weak.
To Xu Yang's surprise, Hu Ke took out the elixir and treated the girl.
"I didn't make any mistakes. These people are not treacherous and evil people."
suddenly.
Xu Yang raised his head, and just now he was keenly aware that there was a flash of breath at the other end of the island.
"It's her!! This woman actually ran here."
Sensing the position of this female cultivator, Xu Yang frowned slightly and became somewhat wary.
