"Junior Brother Xiao!"
Suddenly, Dan Chen's voice came from behind. Xiao Ye turned around and saw that it was he who still had Shen Liuxin, but he didn't see Huo Rulie, so he must have acted alone.
Although Dan Chen is a disciple of the Scarlet Sky Sect like Xiao Ye, his strength is not as good as Xiao Ye. At this moment, he is the same as him, coming to the sky to observe.
"Senior Brother Dan, what's the harvest?" Xiao Ye said with a smile. Now Dan Chen no longer has the contempt for him that he used to look at him. Xiao Ye also treated him with great courtesy. After all, if you respect yourself, you will respect yourself.
Dan Chen looked at Xiao Ye's leisurely look, and then looked at himself. There were many scars. If it weren't for Shen Liuxin's help, he really wouldn't have been able to get here. He should have flown over directly.
"Fortunately, there are still a lot of gains." Dan Chen smiled.
Afterwards, Xiao Ye asked Dan Chen and Shen Liu Xin the same question as Hou Xiaoxiao.
Danchen knew this news, but he only got it from the alchemists who were familiar with it in the association. Because medicinal materials are relatively precious, as an alchemist, he naturally wants to monopolize them rather than share them. Therefore, this information was spread among a small number of people, but when he finally came here, he did not expect that so many people would come. He even wondered if he had let the news slip.
After hearing this, Xiao Ye felt even more strange. He always felt that something was wrong there, as if he was attracted here on purpose.
"Junior brother Xiao, do you suspect that everything here has been forged by someone, and the so-called information is also false?" Dan Chen asked.
"I'm not sure. After all, without the authenticity of Queque, there wouldn't be so many people coming. The key is, where does the source of the information come from?" Xiao Ye said.
"Could it be that the elders stationed here spread the news, and finally the Medicine Master Hall learned about it? After all, apart from the elders stationed here, there seems to be no other possibility. That is, there are some in the center. The demon clan is basically practicing, so as long as they are not disturbed, they will basically not come out." Shen Liuxin said suddenly.
Several people nodded and shook their heads.
If it is said that it was spread by people from the Medicine Hall, then it is indeed possible. After all, the Medicine Hall and the Alchemist Association cannot deal with it, and they both want to destroy each other.
However, even if it comes from the Medicine Hall, what is his purpose for doing this?
This place has been under the jurisdiction of the powerful members of the association all year round. Even if the Medicine Master Hall wants to interfere in the affairs here, it is not that easy. Besides, what is the reason for attracting so many alchemists?
After thinking about it, several people are not the same.
They simply stopped thinking about it, but Xiao Ye's reminder also alerted Dan Chen and the two of them, and their vigilance was greatly improved.
Ever since, the four of them basically acted together.
Compared to others, these people are still trustworthy.
The distance between the few people is not too far, that is, about a hundred feet. In the sky, looking for two small fruits in this forest with a diameter of tens of thousands of miles is like looking for a needle in a haystack. No matter how good the monk's eyesight is, it is very difficult to find them.
But it's not that difficult. After all, it's not just them who are searching here, there are so many people looking around.
As long as one person is found, everyone's eyes will be focused on this, and then everyone needs to rely on their own abilities.
"Xiao Ye, fly high into the sky and use your eyes to take a good look here and see if there is anything underground?" At this time, Duanmu Xiao suddenly said.
Xiao Ye didn't understand, but he still believed in Duanmu Xiao, who seemed to have discovered something.
As a result, Xiao Ye flew a thousand hundred feet higher. From this distance, he could basically see the entire Yaotang Mountain landscape. Afterwards, Xiao Ye used the Phantom Golden Eyes, maximizing his pupil power to see what was under the ground. But it seemed that for a long time, nothing could be seen, only those spiritual roots with spiritual power.
Afterwards, Xiao Ye couldn't hold on anymore. He couldn't hold on to the golden pupil for long. Only through continuous practice could he use the pupil technique more freely.
Xiao Ye rubbed his eyes, then took out Lingwu and put two drops on his eyes. The discomfort caused by the power of the eyes quickly disappeared. Xiao Ye cast it once, and then looked under the central volcano. If there was really something, where would it be the most likely place, but he still didn't see anything.
Xiao Ye kept insisting, his eyes were already bloodshot, and he was about to shed tears of blood. Finally, Xiao Ye saw a white spot, which should be said to be spiritual power.
The spiritual power is so subtle that it is almost difficult to distinguish, as if it is completely integrated into nature.
"I only saw a piece of spiritual power, which seemed to be integrated with this place. Without extremely strong spiritual consciousness, I couldn't see it at all. Moreover, that thing seemed to be radiating outwards, connecting many things." Xiao Ye said.
Duanmu Xiao thought for a while and said, "Whether there is a Mother-Mother Fruit here or not, if there is, leave here as soon as you get it. I'm still not completely sure about this, but for the sake of safety, it's better to leave."
Xiao Ye was still confused, but he still agreed. He didn't dare not listen to Duanmu Xiao's words. The other party's purpose was for his own good after all.
Several people were also confused about Xiao Ye's actions. Xiao Ye passed by casually. After that, several people kept searching and then kept moving forward.
Just like that, I don't know how long it took, and I came to the core area without knowing it. There are almost no plant spirits here, only those ordinary trees. The main reason is that this place is also a gathering place for spiritual beasts. The plant spirits were cleared away before they could grow up, and the ones that survived were all extremely powerful ones. .
A few people are still searching. In fact, they are not so much looking for the companion fruit as they are looking for the existence of Xuan Mingzi and another fruit.
Xuan Mingzi is not the only one who is the chief of the association. Why he is the only one here is probably because Xuan Mingzi got the exact information and knows the location of one of the fruits. For the other one, I'm afraid that even if the discoverer is powerful, he won't be able to stay here longer. He can only write down a location. As for the other one, he naturally needs to find it.
But Xuan Mingzi is not a fool, so he naturally needs to be secretive so that no one can see any flaws.
"Junior brother Xiao, Huo Rulie just sent the news that Xuan Mingzi has been found, but the other party obviously seems to intend to leave a certain area, but he passes by there from time to time. I think one of the fruits is there." Dan Chen suddenly said.
Xiao Ye looked at the other party and did not speak in a hurry, but asked: "Brother Dan, you also know that the Zimu companion fruit can only be taken by one person. Even if it is refined into a pill, it is still the same. You and I are together, how can it be difficult?" Don’t you think you can beat me?”
When he first started to act, Xiao Ye didn't say anything, thinking that he would just get rid of him halfway, but the other party couldn't get rid of him, and seemed to want to follow him.
Danchen's strength was no match for him, even with Shen Liuxin.
Dan Chen smiled and said: "I know, I also know that even if Junior Sister Shen and I are together, we are no match for Junior Brother Xiao. The reason why I follow Junior Brother is that even if I can't help much, I can still help. By blocking some other people, Junior Brother Xiao doesn’t think he can be strong enough to win over other people here, right?”
"..." Xiao Ye didn't say anything. This is indeed a fact. There are many people here who are stronger than him. If they really fight, he really can't win. I'm afraid he won't even have time to pick fruits.
"I came here this time, and I didn't have any hope of getting this fruit. I just came to collect some other medicinal plants. But I didn't expect to meet you here. With your personality, if you can't get this thing I'm afraid I will just start robbing. My purpose is also very simple, that is, I hope that Junior Brother Xiao can take back the bet between us. The Dan Gang Junior Brothers in the outer mountain can no longer bear it." Dan Chen said.
"You are taking away 50% of the profit from the Soul Pill, which reduces the number of possible crystal stones. Originally, I, Junior Sister Shen, and Brother Huo were still able to cope with it. But we have entered The competition has become more fierce, and there is no extra time to help them. Their alchemy skills are much worse than ours. Just maintaining our own sales is difficult.
It's no longer enough, they need to give you 50% of the profit. They can't stand it anymore, and starting to increase the price will have no effect. After all, it has exceeded the value of the elixir. "
"As the leader of the original Dan Gang, even though I have entered the inner mountain, I can't really ignore it, so I hope that Junior Brother Xiao can take back this promise."
Xiao Ye looked at Dan Chen and he also smiled awkwardly.
Because the sales of the divine eagle made him forget that he still had the Dan Gang as a source of income. After all, the Dan Gang's income was really too little compared to the divine eagle.
If Dan Chen hadn't said this, he really wouldn't have remembered that the Dan Gang was still giving him crystal stones.
If it were the past, he would naturally not agree to Danchen's request. But now Danchen has put down his identity so much, and is very respectful, for the sake of his brothers. Xiao Ye's obedience is that others should respect him a foot, he should respect others a foot, others should destroy him a pound, and he should destroy others a fight.
Dan Chen didn't look arrogant at all, so it was naturally difficult for Xiao Ye to refuse.
"Of course you can. Anyway, I'm not very short of crystals now. When I go back, I will ask A Liang not to accept them." Xiao Ye said, really muttering in his heart: Brat, this kid must have swallowed the crystals for himself, right? , why didn’t I see it?
"Thank you so much, Junior Brother Xiao." Dan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, muttering in his heart: It's finally solved. Those guys finally don't have to come to me anymore. I can't even sleep well during this period. I'm surrounded by those guys all day long. The harassment required me to put a little doll on it and curse me. It was finally resolved today.
Soon, several people arrived at Huo Rulie. He was still circling around, trying to find the location, but seemed to find nothing.
After Huo Rulie saw Danchen, he already understood the relationship through just eye contact and nodded in agreement.
According to what Huo Rulie said, Xuan Mingzi wandered around within a thousand miles of here for a while, but left not long ago. Presumably, there should be one of these fruits within this thousand miles. But the range is still too huge. A small fruit is still enchanted. It is still very difficult to find a small fruit within this thousand-mile range.
Difficulties are difficulties, but Xiao Ye still can't be troubled.
It has to be said that he has not practiced the Phantom Golden Eyes well, and now a powerful eye technique has completely become his tool.
Under the vision of Phantom Golden Eyes, everything around him soon seemed to be seen through, and he was found in less than a quarter of an hour. Where there is a weak spiritual power fluctuation, there is a fruit in it. It has to be said that Xuan Mingzi is still very scheming.
It just disguised the fruit, and the barrier left behind was not strong, but it was hidden in the early stage. If it weren't for the vision of the phantom golden eyes, it would not be detected by the spiritual consciousness.
Then, he looked under the ground. There were countless roots here, but there was only one with weak spiritual power. However, these weak spiritual roots were still intersecting with other plant spirits. , it is easy to ignore its existence.
"I'm sorry for the trouble, you three." Xiao Ye cupped his fists and said to Dan Chen and others, and then left with Hou Xiaoxiao without saying a word.
Xiao Ye did not ask Hou Xiaoxiao to stay here. Since they had already cooperated, keeping anyone else would be a distrustful choice and would only break the relationship. As the saying goes, don't use people you doubt, and don't doubt people you employ.
"Xiao Ye, have you noticed that after such a long time, it feels like there are fewer and fewer people here?" Hou Xiaoxiao said suddenly.
Xiao Ye nodded and said, "That's true. When we first came in, there were two to three hundred people. These people don't seem to be many in this vast place, but you can still see a lot of them if you wander around."
"At the beginning, I could still see some, but now I can't see any of them. Even though many people died, they were not fools. How could they all be sacrificed? The key is... where have all the people gone? "
"And have you noticed that although the core area is a gathering place for spiritual beasts, plant spirits are very rare. However, the area here seems to be full of vitality, but it is also lifeless.
It's like a place where animals don't exist. "
Hou Xiaoxiao nodded. Logically speaking, this is already the core area, and the spiritual beasts here should be very active.
After all, this place is under management and surrounded by plant spirits, making it difficult to get out. Most of the time, the spirit beasts are sleeping. During cultivation, if outsiders come, they will definitely attract their attention and move around. The point is, it doesn't matter if the animals can't see it, but it's very strange that you can't even see a bird.
Xiao Ye is very cautious, Duanmu Xiao is right, this place is very weird.
It was originally a lively place, but it was extremely lifeless. This is like burning wood and burying it. It is a living thing, but it takes a lot of life to breed it. This is a contradiction and extremely ironic.
