Yu Zhongjian stood blankly, confused and at a loss. If Xue Tongruo went to Yanxia, there would be no chance of him coming back alive. He held on to a glimmer of hope and asked unnaturally, "The Taoist Master has not gone to Yanxia."
Xiao Yuer's face was pulled a few times and returned to its original appearance. Xue Tong silently recited a spell, black mist surged in mid-air, and three evil pythons floated out.
"If you can defeat the summoned beast, I will spare your life!" Xue Tong waved his hand towards Yu Zhongjian to indicate the target of the attack.
"Boom!" The evil python pounced and bit down three bloody mouths. Yu Zhongjian swiped the whip sharply, and a large green light hit the python's head directly. Green and black light splashed out, and the evil energy layer on the python's head was deeply dented, but it did not break away.
Yu Zhongjian was bitten into three pieces at once! Xiao Yuer and Xue Tong were not happy at all.
"Sister Ruhua will not die, no!" Xiao Yuer cried hysterically. Xue Tong sat quietly like a stone statue and allowed Xiao Yu'er to punch and kick him.
For several days, Xiao Yu'er sometimes shouted, cried or giggled, while Xue Tong stared blankly into the distance. Bai Hu came over and rubbed his face affectionately, but he showed no expression at all.
Xue Tong expanded the search scope. In half a year, I traveled all over the islands within 5,000 miles, but there was still no trace of Fan Ruhua.
The two became less talkative, buried their wounds deep in their hearts, and practiced hard. A few months later. Xue Tong knocked on the door of Xiao Yuer's stone chamber.
"Yu'er, let's go to Yanxia and ask someone to help search. Don't wait here." Xue Tong flattened the mountain wall and carved a message.
…
"Here comes the Taoist priest." Zhan Cheng was surprised and confused.
"Are you okay?"
"Generally, our elixirs are all refined by Guo Guan, but now there are very few left. We are worried about this matter. Zhou Liyang and Peng Ying tried to refine the elixirs, but they did not come to see the Taoist Priest."
"Xue wants to make some deals with you, especially Taoist friends Zhou and Peng." When everyone gathered, Xue Tong said again: "Fan Ruhua is missing. If the two Taoist friends Zhou and Peng are willing, they will be hired to look for Fan Ruhua at a price of five hundred thousand per year."
"Xue also plans to explore Yanxia Mountain and sell the monsters he kills to you at a discount." Xue Tong's proposal was unexpected and beneficial to Zhan Cheng and others. Zhou Lieyang and Peng Ying could not only go to sea to collect, but also earn spiritual stones along the way. .
Xue Tong collected the medicinal plants planted by everyone on the spot, and Daqiao first gave Yu Ling, Hao Ling and other Qi refining elixirs.
"Hou is also looking for someone!" Blue-skinned Hou Enzhe said suddenly. Like Zhou and Peng, he was in the late stage of martial arts.
"That's great. The two tribes join forces to make it safer and safer!"
"In the storage bag are the ships belonging to Guo Guan and Yu Zhongjian. You can take them together and use them. Xue has paid for two years in advance. I hope you will search carefully." Year!
Xue Tongzhi's generosity is astonishing. Guo Guan has become more and more domineering since he was promoted to master. He is becoming more and more domineering in refining medicine. Zhan Cheng and others are unhappy but dare not reveal it.
Hou Enzhe and the other three left in a sea boat. The ships built by the blue-skin people are huge and very stable in the gray area waters, without fear of wind and waves.
"Fellow Daoist Zhan, the blue-skinned ones are good at killing sea monsters. If you keep the extra ones over the years, sell some to Xue."
"If Taoist Xue needs it, just pick it up." ...Xue Tong bought all the sea snakes, moray eels, sea minks, and poisonous octopuses.
Then he took Xiao Yuer into the mountainous area in the north of the island. Yanxia Mountain is 700 miles from east to west and 1,600 miles from north to south.
Dense trees cover the sky, criss-crossing ravines, and the mountainous area is filled with smoke all year round, creating an eerie atmosphere.
A few dark holes may also lead directly to the Black Sea. Xue Tong went forty miles into the mountain and settled in the abandoned camp of Zhan Cheng and others.
The camp is extremely strong, built against a rocky mountain, and has a secret escape tunnel that leads to a bush mound five miles away.
There is an acres-sized open space at the entrance of the cave, with direct sunlight at noon, making people no longer troubled by humidity and gloom.
There are several sturdy log fences on the outside, and thick poisonous iron caltrops are wrapped around them. The camp is also protected by a protective magic circle. Although it cannot be said to be impregnable, it can generally sit back and relax.
"This place is wonderful. You and I can practice with peace of mind. When my elder brother enters the mountain, if the camp is attacked and the situation is not good, you should quickly escape from the secret passage." Mianxia Mountain is the best place for cultivation that Xue Tong has encountered. It has both spiritual and evil spirits. Extremely high concentration.
The white tiger and the bone puppet were each fed a beast pill, and the vulture ate the electric glands of the moray eel and slowly fell into a coma. Xue Tong then used the new breed of animal blood to sacrifice to the ghost banners one by one.
After everything was done, he put on the Barbarian God's gloves and walked into the dense forest.
"Kill a few demonic beasts first to test the depth!"...Xue Tong advanced from east to west and from north to south for more than thirty miles.
The number of monsters to hunt is limited, but the number of poisonous insects and poisonous ants is enough to fill a storage bag. The levels are all acquired. Xue Tong picked out the high-level monsters, insects and monsters, and discarded the rest.
He practiced for three months and went out for one month, and so on. A year later, the monsters hunted were rarely lower than Xiantian. According to Zhan Cheng, he encountered a master-level beast at a depth of about 600 miles.
Xue Tong advanced to a depth of one hundred and fifty miles. When exploring the dense forest, in addition to the sudden attacks of monsters and monsters, the most annoying disturbance is the interference of poisonous insects and snakes, as well as countless disgusting caterpillars, centipedes, toads, spiders, scorpions, mosquitoes and ants.
Xue Tong relied on the powerful protection of the Gang Demon Qi layer and the mana shield, so it was not difficult to search in the forest. He carefully collected insects and ants, and Zhan Cheng raised an innate poisonous scorpion, for which such poisonous substances were its best food.
By the end of the next year, Xue Tong advanced to the 300-mile line. Zhou Liyang and others also returned to Yanxia. Zhou Liyang shook his head, his disappointment palpable.
"Take a rest for a while, and continue looking if you want!" Xue Tong knew that there was little hope. Fan Ruhua would either die or be detained. No matter which outcome, it would be unacceptable.
"Don't worry, Taoist Master Xue. Fellow Taoist Fan may have been sucked into the space-time rift formed in the center of the storm and transferred to another interface." Seeing Xue Tong's miserable expression, Zhan Cheng suddenly consoled him.
"The storm of the Black Sea of Death leads to other lands!" Xue Tong's tone immediately raised an octave.
"Zhan Cheng doesn't know. He just guessed that the dark dragon storm in Wanyu Xiaofeng Sea can bring us to the ancient ruins. Why can't the big storm in the Black Sea bring Fellow Daoist Fan to another mysterious place?" Xue Tong was shocked, and Zhan Cheng The words awakened the dreamer, whether true or false, rekindled the flame of hope.
"Okay, it's possible!" Xue Tong breathed a sigh of relief and said. Xiao Yu'er beside him also looked happy.
Even if it was a baseless fabrication, it gave him and Xiao Yu'er a new dream. Everyone exchanged spiritual objects, and Xue Tong paid the newly refined elixir and sold a bag of poisonous insects and poisonous ants to Zhan Cheng at a low price.
He used force to suppress people and convinced them with benefits. In two years, he raised his image to a level far surpassing that of Guo Guan. ...Bone puppet upgrade!
The poisonous sea python obtained from Zhan Cheng helped open the final secret door. Under the influence of golden tiger meat and electric eel's electric glands, the vulture grew rapidly and approached the middle stage of innateness.
Xue Tong took his four spiritual pets to hunt in the mountains. He was certain that the astonishing evil energy in Mianxia Mountain must come from the cave or secret passage leading to the Black Sea.
Since he had no time to concentrate on his cultivation, he could not grow as well as he could by refining his energy and body. However, his spiritual pet found an excellent place for cultivation, absorbing the evil and miasma in the mist in the mountains and forests.
Xue Tong advanced to the mountains five hundred miles away. The congenital master-level monsters can be subdued by the four pets with only medium to low-intensity battles. The peak monsters can only be captured after a hard fight and a little help from Xue Tong.
Xue Tong wandered around for a year and experienced more than thirty fights, almost all of which were done by his spiritual pets. Continuing to go deeper for nearly a hundred miles, the damp mud in the valley became drier and drier as we walked, and it seemed that we had reached a place where underground activities were frequent.
The white tiger was the first to show his uneasiness, sniffing wildly. Different from the past, he was less excited and anxious, and more fearful and cowed.
"Big fire-attributed monster."
"The rocks are grey-white, very different from the common black rocks. This place must be close to the monster's lair." Xue Tong shot out several ice pythons and moved close to the gray-white rocks in front of them, swimming back and forth.
He slapped the rock face with his vague hands, stone chips flew and the ground shook continuously.
"Boom!" A burst of red light suddenly erupted from the cracks in the stone. The ice python instantly burst and turned into steam in mid-air. A strange snake as thick as the mouth of a bowl emerged.
The snake's eyes were black and its body was fiery red. The layer of flames wrapped around its scales was as thick as the mouth of a well. The demon snake hissed strangely, full of anger, leaving a shallow scorch mark wherever it passed.
In the early stage of the master, the fire chain snake! The giant python is powerful, the demon snake is fast, the fire chain snake shoots straight like an arrow, and the heat of the flames exceeds Xue Tong Jingyan ten times!
Xue Tong punched hard, and the Fire Chain Snake deflected slightly and flew five feet away from him. The flames seemed to be blown off by a scraper, and the wind of the fist hit the gray-white mountain rock hard.
The rock cracked and flames shot into the sky. Xue Tong had already moved two feet away and struck hard with the Tianbei Fist. After receiving two punches, the Fire Chain Snake slowed down and stopped attacking actively. It quickly swam around Xue Tong, its flames shrinking to the thickness of a bucket.
It seems like a big move is brewing.
"Let's see how many tricks you have!" Xue Tong is not in a hurry to attack. The strike of the magic weapon glove is no more than a slash with a sword. Only when facing a large monster beast that requires a super powerful blow, he will use the Xuanlin Iron Ju.
Suddenly, the Fire Chain Snake's eyes glowed with black light, and a piece of scorched earth beneath him shot up like a red-hot iron chain. When he opened his mouth, the flames were so dazzling that Xue Tong's vision suddenly became blurry.
Xue Tong flew backwards, raised his giant fist, and launched the sixth-level Tianbei Fist move.
"Mountains and rivers are broken." The green and black fist light and the blazing flames collided violently, and a black shadow flew away. Xue Tong's body protection burned through, his beard and hair were burned, and his face was covered with hot blisters.
The fire chain snake was tired and squirmed slowly. Dark red blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, and the flames shrank sharply.
"You can't beat me!" Xue Tongmo recited a spell, and the extremely cold ice mist extinguished the flames around him. He stretched out his hand and squeezed the head of the fire chain snake.
"Hehe, although Brother Eagle will definitely be promoted within two years, this place is wonderful. If you don't take advantage of it, you will miss the opportunity. Just eat the good food as soon as possible." Xue Tong cut open the belly of the snake and was about to stuff the snake pill into the mouth of the Eagle.
But he couldn't help but be slightly startled. Not far from the fist-sized snake pill, there is another fiery red bag.
"Fire Bag"
"The function is similar to the electric glands of electric eels."
"If I eat the fire bag, I don't know what will happen."
"Oh, let's talk about it later. Don't rush for success and burn your stomach." Xue Tong gave up his thoughts and stuffed the snake pill into the vulture's mouth.
