Xue Ling gave a few simple words of comfort, but did not elaborate.
The middle-aged man was impatient to wait, "Okay, we've almost rested, let's leave quickly. The news I brought back is that there is an alchemy room, a utensil room, and a classics building in the villa. Go first where?"
Although the middle-aged man is the leader of one of the three waves of people, his cultivation is only in the late stage of foundation building, and he is still one level behind Xue Ling and Yin Ke. However, his wife Yu Yue is also in the late stage of foundation building, and together they can barely On par with them, but usually still somewhat weaker.
Xue Ling glanced at Yin Ke. He was a little afraid of Yin Ke. After all, Yin Ke only brought two people, both of whom were in the late stage of foundation building, and none of them died. They should not be underestimated.
"Fellow Daoist Yin, then go to the alchemy room first and go directly to the Ziyangyun Divine Pill?"
"That's natural." Yin Ke nodded with a smile, then glanced at Xue Xiaojing beside him, "I'll help Miss Xue later."
Xue Xiaojing saluted in surprise, "I don't dare, my little girl only knows a little about the formation restrictions."
The group of people chatted for a few words and then walked towards the east side of the villa.
Zhao Ning turned out from under the tree and looked at their retreating figures. Her eyes glanced at the gradually restored crack in the restriction, then she narrowed her eyes slightly, covered her head with her hood, swayed her body, and followed them quietly. .
They walked very carefully. There were small restrictions around the path leading to Danfang. In order to avoid touching the restrictions, they did not dare to make any unnecessary movements and only followed the footsteps of the little old man Yin Ke.
But just after walking a certain distance, Yin Ke suddenly stopped and looked around a few times with a cold expression.
Xue Ling asked, "What's wrong?"
"I always feel like something is wrong." Yin Ke said, "It seems like something is spying on us?"
The middle-aged man asked, "Could it be that the pioneer disciple is still alive?"
"No, their soul lamps have all been extinguished, there is no way they are still alive."
"Be vigilant. There are many wandering puppets in Wangxian Death City, and maybe there are some in other villages as well."
The group became more cautious until they followed the path into the peach forest.
Only then did Zhao Ning appear at the beginning of the trail. Yin Ke's consciousness was really powerful. Under the concealment of Yun Si Qian Huan's cloak, he could still detect some peeping. But fortunately, this man was sharp and too trusting at the same time. You won't be noticed by other people here, and you won't even think of anyone following you.
Zhao Ning stepped onto the path, her eyes wandering back and forth on both sides of the path. Spirit flowers were planted on both sides of the path, blooming in clusters. These spiritual flowers only have a slight calming effect, and are generally used for viewing. I wonder if they are set up. The reason for the ban is that except for spiritual flowers, there are almost no weeds on the land, and dark red fertile soil can be seen.
After walking through the path, Zhao Ning paused outside the peach forest. The forest was covered with a strong miasma. These people walked in so easily, so they were obviously prepared.
However, Zhao Ning was not afraid of these miasmas. The seeds of the Ghost Crying Vine sprouted in the palm of his hand, and the leaves swayed, instantly absorbing the miasma from three feet around.
The Ghost Crying Vine grows in Netherworld State, and the thing they are least afraid of is this miasma.
There is not only miasma in the peach forest, but also a mysterious trace formation. Fortunately, the Ghost Crying Vine is at home in this place and will not be restricted by the mysterious trace formation.
Zhao Ning stood under a peach tree. Different from the surrounding peach trees, this peach tree was obviously older. There were traces of wind and frost on the trunk. The whole peach tree seemed to be dying, but surprisingly, There was a peach the size of two fists on the top. It was plump, round, fresh and red, and appetizing.
"Lingshou Peach." Zhao Ning murmured in her heart.
At this time, his ears twitched slightly, and he ducked and hid his figure like a peach forest. Someone was coming this way.
"Didn't you say that there is only miasma in the peach forest? Why is there still a layer of mystery formation?"
The person who spoke was a male cultivator who was following Xue Ling. He was walking with Senior Brother Chen whom Xue Xiaojing mentioned.
Senior Brother Chen had a cold face, "If you ask me, when Senior Brother Zhang was breathing his last breath, it was all Lu Ju who was retelling it. Senior Brother Zhang nodded. It must have been Lu Ju who hid some of the information."
"The sect master also ordered us to find a way to kill Lu Ju during the entrance formation and search for his soul. However, the formation suddenly changed. Not only did we fail to plot against Lu Ju, we almost fell into the magma."
"This Lu Ju must be anything but simple!"
"This Lu Ju is alone, so he can't make any big waves. But now that we, the sect leader and Xiaojing are all separated, we won't be able to break the restriction in time, right?"
"What are you afraid of? As long as you have the Ziyangyun Divine Pill, the sect master will not treat you badly... Wait, what is that?!" Senior Brother Chen suddenly paused and looked at the peach on the peach tree in front of him, "Lingshou Peach?! "
Lingshou peach, as the name suggests, can increase your life span by fifty to a hundred years if eaten. It blooms for a thousand years and bears fruit for a thousand years. It is extremely rare and can usually be seen at the great power's birthday banquet.
Senior Brother Chen immediately flew up to take the Lingshou Peach as his own. Another male cultivator caught up with him and shouted, "Chen Li, whoever sees it has a share, give me half!"
After all, they came from the same house, so the two did not get into a fight. Chen Li picked the Lingshou peach first, swallowed his saliva, and said to the male cultivator next to him who was also coveting it, "Junior brother Yu, the Lingshou peach will not be effective if it is separated." Well, how about we look for another one in the forest and give that one to you, okay?"
The male cultivator surnamed Yu frowned, "Senior Brother Chen, the Lingshou Peach has a thousand-year knot, and it's not easy to get one. You're not making this promise to me for nothing."
"Junior brother Yu, I don't want to argue with you. Senior brother, I am more than ten years older than you, so I need it more than you do."
"Senior Brother Chen, I went out to work with the sect leader a few years ago and lost some longevity. I need the Lingshou Peach even more."
The two fellow students refused to let anyone pass, and their faces gradually became a little ugly.
At this moment, a spiritual light suddenly hit the Lingshou peach. Chen Li was startled. He subconsciously avoided it for fear of hurting the Lingshou peach, but he did not want to hit his wrist. He felt pain for a moment and threw the Lingshou peach upwards. The next moment, the spiritual light enveloped him. The Lingshou peach flew not far away.
A male voice was heard laughing.
"Since you two brothers can't share a Lingshou peach, then give them both to Lu!"
Chapter 173
Chen Li knew whose voice it was as soon as he heard it.
Luju! ! !
But now is not the time to be angry at all, the Lingshou Peach is about to be taken away by this guy.
He immediately cast a spell, the spiritual light shot out, and he fainted on the Lingshou Peach. He was just pulling against the opponent's strength. The two sides were wrestling, and no one wanted to let the other go.
"Lu Ju, we saw this Lingshou peach, but you still want to snatch it from us!"
"Hahaha, I'm not trying to rob you. Lu is obviously helping you solve your problems and not letting fellow disciples fight over a Lingshou peach. What kind of talk is that!" As Lu Ju's voice stabilized, they also looked at it. Arrive at where Lu Ju is.
Just five feet away from them, like Chen Li, he was casting spells, and his aura pulled at the Lingshou Peach.
"Otherwise, how can you two tell the difference between the Lingshou Peach?! Fifty years of life is something no one can dream of, and this Lingshou Peach has been growing in this villa for so many years. I'm afraid its effect is not just as simple as increasing lifespan. !”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Li didn't want to give up the Lingshou Peach to him anymore.
He glanced to the side and said, "Yu Mi, what are you still looking at? Hurry up and help your senior brother. Otherwise, do you really want the Lingshou Peach to fall into the hands of this guy?"
Only then did Yu Mi realize from the confrontation between the two. No matter how much he wanted the Lingshou Peach, he could see the current situation clearly. The Lingshou Peach fell into Chen Li's hands. Even if he couldn't get the Lingshou Peach, he could still ask for it. There were some benefits, but there was nothing left if it fell into Lu Ju's hands.
As he said that, he immediately cast a spell, and another spiritual light hit the Lingshou Peach, and the position of the Lingshou Peach immediately tilted towards the two of them.
When Lu Ju saw this situation, how could he give them the Lingshou Peach? He also gathered aura in his other hand, and the aura hit the Lingshou peach again. The three auras intertwined on the Lingshou peach, causing Chen Li'er to Lingshou Tao, whose direction was slowly shifting, was once again stuck in the air at this moment.
But none of the three parties wanted to let this spiritual light penetrate into the Lingshou Peach layer by layer. This power should be able to withstand it, and Lingshou Peach received the bonus of these three forces. Visible to the naked eye, Lingshou Peach It started to crack.
Chen Li saw something bad and wanted to protect the Lingshou peach, but he didn't want the Lingshou peach to fly into their hands as soon as he let go, so he shouted, "If we continue to fight like this, the Lingshou peach will be damaged sooner or later." Yes, none of us will get it by then."
Lu Ju obviously also saw that the spiritual power carried by Lingshou Peach had reached its extreme, and he did not want Lingshou Peach to disappear like this.
"Well, Fellow Daoist Chen and Fellow Daoist Yu, why don't we stop at the same time, throw the Lingshou Peach to a high place, and then grab it ourselves. Whoever grabs the Lingshou Peach belongs to whoever. How about that?" Lu Ju expressed his thoughts.
Chen Li and Yu Mi looked at each other, and they didn't know what the intentions in their eyes meant.
But when Chen Li turned to look at Lu Ju again, he said firmly, "Okay, I will count to three, and we will release the Lingshou Peach at the same time."
Lu Ju readily agreed, "Okay, Fellow Daoist Chen, let's count!"
Chen Li said in a deep voice, "One..."
The sound of counting seemed to attract everyone's attention.
Zhao Ning watched their fight indifferently from the shadows, but she didn't believe that these people would really let go.
Sure enough, when Chen Li counted to the third time, several parties made moves at the same time, and the fighting became even stronger. This caused the Lingshou Peach to collapse in an instant under the huge pressure, and the pulp spread to all directions. Disperse.
"Damn it, Lingshou Tao!"
Chen Li frowned when he saw this situation. He tried to use the last pulp, but at this moment, a bad wind suddenly blew up in the forest.
The miasma in the entire forest became more intense, and the Devil's Crying Vine was swaying in the wind, as if it wanted to rush out in the direction of the evil wind.
Zhao Ning squinted slightly, and it turned out that there was something secretly staring at the Lingshou Peach.
The next moment, I saw a huge spotted demon snake emerging from the evil wind. This spotted snake was as thick as an adult's waist and at least four to five feet long. It took advantage of the evil wind to collapse in the soul. The center of the broken piece spun around in a circle, sweeping all the pulp and the remaining core into its stomach, and then neighed to the sky.
When Chen Li and the others took a look, their eyes shrank immediately, "It's a second-level monster. Damn it, he swallowed all the Lingshou Peach."
This made the confrontation between the three of them just now seem like a joke.
It is said that the snipe and the clam fight against each other and the fisherman gets the benefit. But now, they have become the snipe and the clam, and the monster has become the fisherman.
The key is that now, this second-level monster has not only obtained the Lingshou Peach, but it is also staring at the three of them, obviously wanting to devour them all together.
It suddenly leaned over and pounced on Chen Li and the others, who immediately dispersed.
Seeing Chen Li and Yu Mi looking like they were about to leave, Lu Ju said sarcastically, "Fellow Daoist Chen, this is a second-level monster. Since the Lingshou Peach has been swallowed by it, we might as well get out its demon elixir to counteract it." The loss of Lingshou Peach.”
But Chen Li obviously didn't want to stay any longer, "Lu Ju, don't think that I don't know what your intentions are. You've wasted your magic power here fighting the monsters. When the ban on the elixir room is opened, can we still snatch the elixir from you?! "
Chen Li felt like he had a mirror in his mind, and he shouted to Yu Mi, "Come on, Junior Brother Yu, let's go find the sect master. We must report this guy's face to the sect master."
The two of them said that they were about to fly deep into the forest.
However, Lu Ju flew up and stood on the canopy of the peach tree, avoiding the second-level monster and said with a smile, "This is not something that Fellow Daoist Chen can just leave if he wants."
Chen Li thought that Lu Ju wanted to use some means, but when he turned around, he saw the second-level monster's wide open mouth in front of him. He was suddenly shocked and subconsciously took out the magic weapon in his hand. It was a long stick, which happened to be stuck in the upper and lower jaws of the murderer. The two parties were frozen in place for an instant.
Chen Li shouted, "Yu Mi, hurry up, deal with this monster now."
After hearing the words, Yu Mi immediately flew up, grabbed his right hand in the void, and a long sword, a second-level spiritual weapon, appeared. He held the long sword and passed over the head of the pied demon snake, and then found the pied demon snake's seven-inch The magic power gathered on the long sword, and the next moment, with a loud shout, he stabbed the seven-inch spot of the spotted snake. Unexpectedly, the scales of this spotted snake were extremely hard, so Stabbing down, the long sword made a gash in the scales, only damaging the surface.
The piebald demon snake was furious, flicked its long tail, and suddenly appeared behind Yu Mi, throwing Yu Mi completely into the distance, hitting a large peach tree, and the peach tree Lu Ju was standing on also collapsed.
Seeing such a situation, Chen Li didn't know how powerful the demonic snake was, so he didn't dare to fight with the demonic snake again. He wanted to withdraw immediately, but he didn't expect that it was already too late. The demonic snake actually used his upper and lower jaws to attack the demonic snake. The long spiritual weapon flew away immediately, and then the vicious mouth opened, causing half of Chen Li's body to fall into the mouth of the demonic snake.
A burst of spiritual light burst out from Chen Li's body, which was like jade-like armor. This gave Chen Li the opportunity to break free from the vicious snake's mouth. However, as soon as he broke free, the armor on his body began to break. As soon as he saw The armor he had spent a lot of money to prepare for this treasure hunt was completely damaged, and Chen Li's distressed expression was distorted.
At this moment, Lu Ju landed not far away in perfect condition. Chen Li was furious, "Lu Ju, are you just going to stand by and watch like this?!"
Lu Ju just glanced at him with a smile, and then flew away. When Chen Li saw his actions, he almost exploded with anger, but behind him was the approaching demon snake, and he didn't want to be in the same place. The demon snake resisted, and the light flashed to the side. The brilliance seemed to attract the demon snake, but that direction was the seriously injured Yu Mi. When Yu Mi saw Chen Li, he also took the opportunity to Yu Feng and ran away. This was to kill him. Used to attract the attention of the demonic snake!
Yu Mi's eyes shrank, filled with anger and unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do. He was already weak in strength and was under the rapid impact of the demonic snake.
All that was left was "No!!!"
The shrill roar was finally muffled in the snake's mouth, and the demonic snake swallowed the remaining pieces whole. Snake Xin moved outside, seemingly dissatisfied, and looked around again, trying to chase Chen Li and Lu Ju. .
At this moment, the demon snake paused and suddenly noticed another breath, which was very weak, but extremely close.
It turned its head, only to see the phantoms of eight ancient dragons suddenly emerge from the air. The phantoms were covered in the hazy miasma, and only a few shrunken but extremely oppressive heads could be seen. The power from the bloodline The pressure made the demon snake dare not move for a moment, but the eight giant dragons suddenly entangled themselves and turned into an extremely sharp dragon tooth, which penetrated seven inches of the demon snake in an instant.
This change was extremely fast. From the moment the dragon's shadow appeared to the time when the dragon's teeth penetrated seven inches, it only took a moment, and the demonic snake didn't even react.
