After Li Xiuping gave all the instructions, he walked directly towards the valley, staying as far away from the river as possible.
The river was cold during the day, and even colder at night. Even with Li Xiuping's physique and cultivation, he couldn't withstand it as long as he got closer.
Although the Black Fire Order can resist the cold erosion, Li Xiuping still wants to try the so-called formation first. If it can break it, it will be best. If not, then consider entering from the river.
The reason why he chose to enter the valley late at night was actually not for any special purpose. He just wanted to see what tricks the two golden elixir monks would play, and to avoid directly colliding with the dangers in the valley.
It's just that there are already people coming here, so naturally we can't let others get there first.
Nowadays, the situation in Penglai Immortal Boat is complicated, and the involvement between the various forces is even greater. An ordinary monk in the foundation building stage is likely to involve countless strong people in the golden elixir stage or even the Nascent Soul stage, so he is the first to enter the valley. , holding the treasures in the valley in your hands is the safest way.
Of course, how to respond specifically depends on the situation in the valley first.
However, according to the Golden Core Stage monk, there was a Nascent Soul Stage strongman who obtained the treasure from it and left. In other words, the dangers contained therein could not threaten a Nascent Soul Stage strongman at all.
Although he is only in the foundation building stage now, if he exerts all his strength, even if there is a threat at the Nascent Soul stage, he will at least be able to save his life.
In other words, he may be really sure that he can get the treasure in the valley.
Judging from the momentum shown previously, the thing in the valley should also be an immortal treasure. If I can get it, then I will have another immortal treasure. By then, even if I face the powerful Nascent Soul stage Even the most powerful one in Penglai Immortal Boat is only at the Nascent Soul stage.
With so many immortal treasures, after leaving Penglai Immortal Boat, her strength will be greatly improved. After all, the Xuanhuo Token must be returned, and the three things given by the woman in green, she is afraid that they will also be returned by then. If he can take it back, then all he has left is the flying sword.
It is precisely for this reason that Li Xiuping wants to get more things from Penglai Immortal Boat and make plans for his future.
Whether it is Penglai Immortal Boat or the outside world, danger is everywhere. In addition, he is now involved in some things, and there are many people who want to kill him. Even with the intimidation of the Master Jiu Xian, it is difficult to guarantee that those old guys will Don't jump over the wall in a hurry.
After all, Li Xiuping didn't know the impact of what he was involved in, and whether it would touch the fundamental interests of some people.
Once the fundamental interests of some people are touched, even with the intimidation of the old man Jiu Xian, it is difficult to guarantee that those old guys will not take action.
Having made up his mind, Li Xiuping quickened his pace and ran quickly towards the valley. At the same time, he increased his vigilance and felt the disturbance around him.
After running forward like this for a while, Li Xiuping suddenly stopped. At the same time, countless bamboo slips emitted golden light, wrapping his body in them.
At the same time, countless sharp swords roared in and kept hitting the bamboo slips.
Just as Li Xiuping guessed, although this formation is astonishingly powerful, it can only threaten the strong people in the Golden Core stage, and it is difficult to hinder the footsteps of the strong people in the Nascent Soul stage. In other words, this golden core stage The strong ones did not lie. Strong ones in the Nascent Soul Stage could indeed enter the valley.
The defense of the bamboo slips is difficult for even a strong person in the Nascent Soul stage to break through, so it is naturally not difficult to block the attacks of these sharp swords.
Li Xiuping continued to pour in his sword intent and moved forward.
Soon Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown, because he found that this formation was not as simple as he thought. Although the offensive did not increase, as he continued to go deeper, the offensive of those sharp swords did not weaken, and he was You need to use the sword intention in your body to support those bamboo slips to resist. This journey consumes a lot of money.
According to the current situation, even if he can walk into the valley, there will definitely be very little sword energy left in his body. How can he deal with the dangers in the valley?
The monks in the Nascent Soul stage can resist the attacks of these sharp swords while absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth to replenish the losses in the body. In addition, this is the Penglai Immortal Boat, which is rich in spiritual energy, so even if there will be losses after entering the valley, the losses will not be too great. big.
But he is different.
However, Li Xiuping soon discovered that besides this method, he had no other way, because even if he walked into the river, he still needed to continuously pour sword intent into the Xuanhuo Order to withstand the erosion of the river. Different, maybe even worse than the current losses.
Li Xiuping directly took out the golden elixir but quickly put it away, aiming at the Yuanying of the previous Yuanying stage monk.
The power of these bamboo slips could have been stronger, but because part of the power was used to suppress the Nascent Soul of the powerful Nascent Soul stage, their power was reduced a lot.
The purpose of keeping that guy's Nascent Soul was to directly absorb the powerful energy contained in his Nascent Soul at the critical moment. Now was the time when his efforts were needed.
Although using that guy's Nascent Soul now is overkill, the current loss can be made up for with the golden elixir, and the wine in the hip flask can also be used, but whether it is the golden elixir or the wine in the hip flask, it will be gone after use, and if it is put There is no threat to Li Xiuping on his body, but that guy's Nascent Soul is different.
That guy's Nascent Soul is always a hidden danger on his body. Now, by diverting part of his energy, this potential hidden danger can be reduced.
The weaker the opponent's Nascent Soul, the less of a threat it poses to you. At a critical moment, you can directly lift the restrictions on him, thereby maximizing the power of these bamboo slips. So the reason for using that guy at this time is, The pros outweigh the cons.
Li Xiuping directly took out the copper bowl, took off the hatchet from his waist, and began to extract the guy's Nascent Soul.
After the old guy was suppressed, he struggled for a long time, but then he probably found that he couldn't break free from Li Xiuping's shackles, so he had no choice but to give up. He had obviously resigned himself to his fate and was lying in the copper bowl at this moment.
Probably realizing that his energy was losing, the old guy opened his eyes with fear on his face, and then roared loudly: "What did you do to me?"
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Senior has a lot of energy. It should be no problem to lend some to me. You can't use this power now anyway."
The old guy really didn't expect such a situation. He thought that although his physical body was destroyed, the Nascent Soul was still there, and sooner or later he would be able to get rid of Li Xiuping's control. As long as he found a suitable body, he would not only be able to survive, but also be able to survive. Leave this Penglai fairy boat.
The worst-case scenario was that he would continue to be detained by this young man, and then follow him to leave the Penglai Immortal Boat. He would still have the opportunity to reappear in the world in the future, but he really didn't expect that this guy would detain him in order to absorb own energy.
The Nascent Soul is the condensation of a Yuanying stage monk's lifelong cultivation. If this energy is absorbed by others, the Yuanying will cease to exist, and then oneself will naturally cease to exist. That is the real death of the body and the Tao.
"I swear, if I leave from now on, I will cut you into pieces!"
In the copper bowl, the old guy cursed loudly.
Regarding his weak threat, Li Xiuping just curled his lips and said, "Let's wait until you can leave. You'd better shut up now. Maybe I can leave some for you to survive. Otherwise, I will drain all your energy and make you disappear completely."
The old guy knew the current affairs and shut up instantly. He could only watch helplessly as his energy was continuously being drained away, and his Nascent Soul became more and more illusory.
As the energy was continuously extracted, the Nascent Soul, which originally looked like an old man, began to gradually become smaller, and soon turned into a child.
At this time, the energy in his body had stopped losing because Li Xiuping had extracted enough energy.
It's just a sword array, so naturally it's impossible to really drain all this guy's energy and keep it for future use.
With the energy support of Nascent Soul, Li Xiuping continued to move forward, walking deeper into the valley.
At the same time, he put away the copper bowl and said to the Nascent Soul in the copper bowl: "Let's do this this time, but it's hard to say when the next time will be, so you'd better replenish the lost energy as soon as possible, otherwise Next time it will probably be extracted directly by me."
From the copper bowl, the child's voice could no longer be suppressed. Unfortunately, Li Xiuping had already put away the copper bowl and could no longer hear it.
As they continued to move forward, the sharp swords soon disappeared out of thin air, and the sight ahead suddenly became clear.
The situation in the valley was a little different from what Li Xiuping had imagined. Although there was no moonlight, there were still a few sparse stars in the sky. In front of them, there were countless fireflies flying up and down. A large tree, similar to a willow tree, could be faintly seen. However, the leaves of the tree seemed to be purple. The exact color was unclear, so Li Xiuping was not sure.
Judging from the reflection, the place where the tree grew should be a small island, but the island was white.
On a night like this, white is easily distinguishable, so there's no doubt about it.
Li Xiuping frowned slightly, and the bamboo slips around his body were still rotating gently, shrouded in golden light, so Li Xiuping naturally became the most eye-catching presence in the entire valley.
Li Xiuping directly released his spiritual consciousness and sensed everything around him.
As his spiritual consciousness was released, Li Xiuping discovered that the valley was very large. With his current spiritual consciousness, he could not detect the edge of the valley. However, after confirming that there was no danger, Li Xiuping withdrew his spiritual consciousness, and then stretched out his hand to A little higher on the bamboo slip, the piece of bamboo slip flew forward.
The bamboo slips carry a golden glow, illuminating the scenery wherever they pass.
The bamboo slips kept moving forward, and soon appeared near the big tree, and then stopped.
With the illumination of the bamboo slips, Li Xiuping could also see clearly what the tree looked like.
It is indeed a willow tree, but the leaves are indeed purple and very dense. Although there is no wind, the willow branches are swaying gently from side to side.
The willow tree is very big, so even though it is illuminated by the light from the bamboo slips, it is not possible to see the whole thing clearly.
Under the willow tree, there is not a white island, but a huge mirror-like ice block, round in shape, with water flowing around it.
This scene looks very weird, but it does exist because it exists in front of Li Xiuping.
Although he was surprised, Li Xiuping was now a person who had entered the door of cultivation and had seen many strange things. Although he had never encountered this kind of situation before, he was not too shocked.
Li Xiuping thought, and the bamboo slips surrounding his body spread out in all directions, like lanterns emitting golden light, hovering in the night sky, completely illuminating the land.
Although he had seen the willow tree and the weirdness on the ice, Li Xiuping was still a little shocked at this moment.
This place is indeed very wide and stretches as far as the eye can see. Even the bamboo slips could not completely illuminate the place. All Li Xiuping could see, except for the huge and weird willow tree and the huge round ice surface, was a river. , flowing from an unknown place in front, after encountering the huge circular ice surface, it spread to both sides, then left the ice surface in a circle, closed again, and flowed out of the valley.
All kinds of strange flowers and plants grow around the river. They are strange because these flowers and plants have no color.
Yes, there is no color. Li Xiuping's entire place is like an ink painting. The only ones with color are those bamboo slips that emit light, those few glowing fireflies, and Li Xiuping and the A strange willow tree.
As a result, the river seemed to have become colorless, because although the willow tree was huge, there was no reflection in the river, probably because it was completely blocked by the ice.
Anyone who suddenly reaches out to such a strange place will be startled.
Li Xiuping swallowed, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and moved forward.
Li Xiuping soon discovered that as he moved, the flowers and plants that were originally colorless began to be given color. But the grass was not green, and the flowers were not other colors. The flowers and plants were all red, bright red, just like It looked like it was instantly dyed red by blood.
The previous situation was already weird, but the current situation is even weirder.
Li Xiuping continued to move forward, his whole nerves completely tense at this time, observing the changes around him.
After walking like this for a while, Li Xiuping suddenly stopped, feeling shocked.
He suddenly discovered that his body was actually weakening, and the rate of weakness was getting faster and faster, as if the vitality and blood essence in his body were constantly being lost, at a speed that even he could not notice.
As his steps stopped, the feeling of weakness diminished instantly.
Li Xiuping couldn't help but look back, and found that the flowers and plants that had turned into blood red at this moment were swaying continuously, as if they were extremely happy, but those flowers and plants gave Li Xiuping an extremely weird and terrifying feeling, because those flowers and plants seemed to be coming. Like eating him...
