"It's a swamp." Mu Yudie said hesitantly. Judging from her expression, it seemed that it was not a safe place. It was even a relatively dangerous place for outer disciples.
"In that swamp, there is a thick miasma. The miasma contains slight toxins. Even if a monk inhales too much, it will disturb the spirit at best, and may cause death directly at worst. And deep down there, there are also There are latent spiritual beasts like the Swamp Rock Crocodile, but they are not advanced beings. The strongest ones are equivalent to half-step foundation building, and they are not really second-level spiritual beasts. They just like to lurk in swamps. Here, attack the enemy by surprise."
Although there are toxins, the sect is not without detoxifying pills and so on. Moreover, the Swamp Rock Crocodile, a second-level spiritual beast that can be found at any time, usually does not leave anywhere, and most of the time it is lurking in the swamp unless prey appears.
However, Mu Yudie's last sentence of "periphery" caught Xiao Ye's attention. Since she emphasized the periphery, it means that the place she went to was definitely not a simple periphery, but should be close to the depths. Moreover, he also sensed some of her aura. This was already an eighth-level cultivation. With her eighth-level cultivation, there would not be much danger even if she went alone.
Xiao Ye quickly thought that the so-called danger was not the danger caused by environmental factors, but the danger caused by man-made factors.
"What is it that makes so many people search for it in the depths? No, it's robbing!" Xiao Ye asked directly.
Mu Yudie was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are indeed very smart, yes, you think it is dangerous."
"I heard that there is a mature Yingsheng tree deep in the swamp. The juice contained in the Yingsheng tree is a kind of juice that can be used to refine the foundation building pill. It can also be taken directly. For other monks, In other words, this thing is not very valuable, but for monks in the Qi-inducing realm, it is an existence that can break through the foundation building. Moreover, even if it is not used to refine the foundation-building pill, the power contained in this juice is enough to attract A monk in the Qi Realm can break through to another level, but a monk who is at the peak of the Qi Realm and is halfway to building a foundation may not be able to break through." Mu Yudie said firmly.
"You also know that the Foundation Establishment Land will be opened in half a year. The Foundation Establishment Pill may not be what you and I want, but now we have not reached the ninth level of the Qi Entrainment Realm, even if I can break through to the ninth level in the past six months Realm, but there is no other time to practice. If you want to build a foundation early and shine successfully, it is not a simple matter. Now the sap of the Yingsheng tree is the best help."
"And..." Mu Yudie smiled like a kitten, her smile was very seductive: "Furthermore, the Yingsheng tree is a tree of life. It grows in swamps with poisonous miasma, but It is not affected at all, forming a mutually reinforcing effect. The juice can not only break through, but also has a very strong power of qi and blood, which also has a good effect for body refining monks."
Mu Yudie seemed to have already thought of a reason and was deliberately trying to seduce Xiao Ye. Everyone would be fooled by such derogatory measures, but... Xiao Ye was still willing to be fooled. After all, the sap of the Yingsheng tree, which has a body-refining effect, really aroused his interest.
Nowadays, as long as he doesn't meet a very powerful genius or a monk at the foundation level, he can basically be invincible.
"I still don't understand. Your strength is also not weak. There shouldn't be many outer disciples in the sect who can beat you. Plus your identity, why are you still so careless?" Xiao Ye asked again.
"It would be really good if you were a disciple of the sect. You have basically left the scope of the sect. There are many casual cultivators wandering around here, and there will even be other forces joining in. With my strength, And identity, it’s really not enough.” Mu Yudie said with a wry smile.
"I see, if you are a casual cultivator, that's right. They won't care about this, or others won't recognize who you are at all." Xiao Ye said, "When will we set off?"
"Of course, the sooner the better. I have prepared the horses and can set off now." Mu Yudie said.
Xiao Ye hesitated and said, "Can't we borrow the spirit boat? Why do we have to ride a horse?"
"It's just a few hundred miles away, not very far, and it's not cost-effective to rent a spirit boat." Mu Yudie was confused, but soon thought of something again, and said with a sinister smile: "Xiao Ye... you It’s not like... you can’t ride a horse, right?”
Xiao Ye was completely embarrassed. He really didn't know how to ride a horse. It could even be said that he had never touched a horse. If he was asked to ride a horse now, he would definitely make a fool of himself. However, how can you say that you can't do it if you are a manly man, riding a horse and galloping across the world?
"Of course it's impossible, but I'm absolutely pressed for time, and riding a horse would be too delayed." Xiao Ye said with floating eyes.
"It's not urgent, it's not urgent." Mu Yudie seemed to have thought of something interesting, and said: "I have inquired, there are still a few days until maturity, and we are too hasty in driving the spirit boat, so we might as well ride a horse. "
Xiao Ye saw the proud look on Mu Yudie's face and thought to himself that he might not be able to ride now. After all, he didn't know the road and could only follow the opponent.
As expected, Xiao Ye almost fell off his horse when he got on the horse. Mu Yudie laughed at him for a long time. He was also extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, he adapted quickly. A man and a woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman, riding horses galloping, how happy they are.
It is indeed a horse in the monk world, but it is different from ordinary horses. At this speed, it can no longer be called a horse. Even though the horse was very fast, the two of them still arrived at their destination, which was a county, very late in the evening.
Tianheyun County, this is a neither big nor small county in the dynasty. It is under the direct jurisdiction of the dynasty. It serves as a handover point with other cities. To put it simply, it is a rest stop. There are also monks here, not just casual cultivators who often wander here, but there are also some small families stationed here, but they are all unworthy beings, even an inner disciple of Luoyun Sect. When you come here, you can also exist as the head of the family.
The two dismounted and led the horses to the county. Xiao Ye also visited other counties in the six months since he left. They should be compared to this place. There is no prosperity here. It is worthy of being a county directly under the dynasty. Even though it is small and weak, it is still like Chang'an in the prosperous age.
Along the way, Xiao Ye also used his spiritual consciousness to explore and found that although there were monks here, they were still mostly mortals. Among the monks, most of them were Qi-entraining monks, either casual cultivators or practicing disciples here. In short, Xiao Ye did not pay much attention to these people. Perhaps this is a mentality. When a person becomes stronger, his vision and identity will be different. This is the case for Xiao Ye now.
His strength has also become stronger, and he thinks that his range in the Qi Entraining Realm is smaller than that of his opponents. He doesn't even think much about the disciples here, nor does he take a second look. He has a feeling of disdain. I feel like he can't explain it himself. In short, it's not that bad, but it's not that good either.
"It's already getting late. Let's find a place to rest. What do you think of going to the Green Ying Swamp tomorrow?" Mu Yudie asked.
"Okay." Xiao Ye thought to himself, you, a girl, are saying this, do I have any reason to refuse?
Arriving at a restaurant and inn, the two of them found a quiet spot and ordered a table of food and wine, then began to plan for tomorrow.
"Tomorrow we will try to enter from a position with a smaller number of people to avoid conflict with those casual cultivators." Xiao Ye said lightly: "Although these casual cultivators are not like us, they have the protection of the family sect, and they are not like us. With good resources and no good training environment, they can only earn everything by themselves. However, this does not mean that their strength will be any worse."
Xiao Ye recalled the identity of Mo Xie, an evil pharmacist, as a casual cultivator. There are many casual cultivators who act recklessly because they don't have any estimates, and have become wanted criminals. Desperados like this are only strong but not weak, and they also have many life-saving skills.
Moreover, if casual cultivators want to break through Foundation Establishment, they can only take Foundation Establishment Pills or the products of refining heaven and earth. Without identity, they basically don't want to enter the foundation building place. Therefore, I am afraid that the temptation of Yingsheng sap will also have a lot of half-step foundations here. Although Xiao Ye is not afraid of this kind of character now, even if he fights, he is completely sure to kill the opponent. If he was fine alone, but there was Mu Yudie beside him, he didn't dare to be absolutely sure. Therefore, it is better to avoid the trouble as much as possible, so as not to cause trouble for yourself.
"Well, there's no problem with that." Mu Yudie nodded. It was absolutely impossible for Xiao Ye not to encounter danger in the six months since he disappeared, and she didn't know much about casual cultivators. She believed that Xiao Ye was her most trusted choice.
"By the way, this is for you." Mu Yudie took out a bottle of elixir from the Qiankun Bag, which contained an antidote to the green swamp: "Although the report said it was in the depths, where The range is not very small, and while searching, we must also prevent dangers from occurring. Moreover, there is still some time for the Yingsheng tree to fully grow and complete. Even if we find it in advance, we still have to wait, and we may have to stay for some time. Here Every time you take one pill, you can move freely for a day. There are twenty pills in total, half for each person, which is enough for the two of us."
Xiao Ye looked at the pill in front of him and felt that it was just unnecessary. How could he be afraid of a mere miasma when he was possessed by real fire? However, Xiao Ye naturally could not expose the existence of real fire, so he accepted it happily and took some food pills to make up for it.
However, Hou Xiaoxiao did keep his promise and did not tell anyone about his possession of the real fire.
