Xunfan returned home and told his mother everything about his trip. This had been his habit all along. He hid nothing from his mother because he didn't want her to worry at all.
"Son, I've been feeling panicked lately. I always feel like something is going to happen. Be careful when you go out." Mother warned.
"Mom, don't worry. There is no danger in this trip. We are just collecting medicinal materials for the military, and there are hundreds of people traveling with us, so don't worry. And I am no longer an ordinary person. I have many magical powers. Nothing will happen." Xunfan described his ability to his mother.
"Be careful and you won't make a mistake. Caution is the only way to be safe..." Mother warned for a long time.
Three days later, in the early morning, Xunfan said goodbye to his mother and came to the handsome manor. The army sent a detachment of five hundred men to accompany him. Xunfan knew in his heart that he wanted Guan Piaoran to observe him carefully to determine whether their judgment was correct.
Split Sky sent them to the mountain pass, and they cherished each other. Xunfan and Guan Piaoran took the people into the mountain. After entering the mountain, Xunfan did not let his entourage collect medicinal materials because the medicinal materials in the periphery were not very effective. Guan Piaoran had no objection to this, saying that Xunfan had full command of the trip and that he was only here to protect Xunfan.
Soon, we came to the area where the "Liu Xia Cave" was located. The dry plants were very inconsistent with the surrounding area.
"General Guan, should we investigate?"
"No need, we have checked here carefully many times. We found nothing."
Xunfan didn't say anything and continued to move deeper. "There is indeed something fishy about the 'Box-Living Cave'. I could find the entrance of the cave, but why couldn't they find it? Maybe they didn't tell me if they found out. The box is still there. You should go back and take a look if you have the chance." Xunfan was very surprised.
After passing the "Liuxi Cave", Xunfan began to collect medicinal materials. He had to admit that Xunfan's skills were very superb, the medicinal materials he collected were very precious, and he was very attentive. After all, it was the only thing he could ostensibly do for the military.
While collecting herbs, I walked at a much slower pace. I walked for more than a month and collected a lot of medicinal materials. Xunfan didn't dare to practice when he was resting at night, "Just give yourself a chance to settle down." At night, he adjusted his breath in his body and realized the true meaning of practice. It allowed him to explore many of his abilities and his realm has improved a lot.
After more than ten days, we finally arrived at "Xie Mang Cave". There was no fog at the entrance of the cave.
"Brother Xun, didn't you say there is a lot of fog?" Guan Piaoran asked.
Xunfan Mingzhi asked: "Yes. Why is it gone? What must have happened?"
The two decided to take twenty strong soldiers down to find out what was going on, while the others stayed outside. Everyone held torches and walked down the passage. Of course Xunfan knew that there was nothing inside except the body of the black golden anaconda, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to go down with the others. After walking for a long time, we finally reached the bottom.
Looking at the golden anaconda that had been frozen into a huge popsicle, Guan Piaoran's handsome face was full of surprise, and the boss was stunned. The entourage exclaimed again and again, and Xunfan also made a timely expression.
"This is too big! It's more than twice as big as the usual black golden anaconda. Why was it frozen into a popsicle?" Guan Piaoran asked in confusion.
Xunfan pretended to step forward to check, "This black golden anaconda died after someone opened its abdomen. Such a big python is so powerful! How strong is the person who killed it?" Zai Guan Piaoran was confused, Everyone was shocked, and some time passed during Xunfan's performance.
Finally, Guan Piaoran asked his entourage to look around. The attendant carefully checked for a long time, but found nothing. What did you find out before you saw a ghost? This was Xunfan's inner voice.
Except for shock, everyone came out of the crypt with nothing to gain. Guan Piaoran sent everyone to inspect this grassland, and Xunfan understood in his heart that since he absorbed all the source energy, this grassland had become an ordinary grassland. Everyone acted according to orders.
"Brother Xun, what do you think of this matter?" Guan Piaoran asked.
"Let me calm down." Xunfan pretended to sit on the ground blankly. He had to admit that Xunfan's acting talent was even better than his medicine-picking skills.
"It was not like this last time when I came here. What happened? By the way, the person who killed the Black Golden Anaconda must be found. He will definitely be of great help to us in dealing with this crisis."
"This is easier said than done. Such a master is standing in front of us and doesn't want us to know. How can we see it?"
"yes."
Neither of them spoke anymore, each thinking about their own thoughts. He already knew the situation here clearly, so Xunfan simply lay down on the grass and began to adjust his breathing silently.
Guan Piaoran sat on the ground, looking at Xunfan with his eyes closed, and thought to himself, "On the surface, he has nothing to do with this matter. But who is the person who killed such a powerful black golden anaconda? In such a deep area, extremely Very few people can arrive. It hasn’t been long since last time, but the situation has changed tremendously. He has been here before and is the most suspected person. But if it’s not him, then who could it be? I really hope it’s him. , then it will increase its combat power."
After another four or five days, the people sent out came back and found nothing. Of course, nothing will be discovered. Xunfan knows everything about this. With nothing more to investigate, the two led their followers deeper into the area. On the way, Xunfan collected herbs wholeheartedly, and the amount of herbs continued to increase.
More than a month passed. As we went deeper, the medicinal materials collected became more precious.
On this day, everyone came to a cliff and discovered a life-threatening fruit tree. The tree was full of life-threatening fruits. This fruit was not a poisonous fruit, but a miraculous healing medicine. No matter whether it is illness or injury, as long as there is still breath, you can come back to life, just like taking your life back from the hands of the king of hell. This fruit gets its name.
As an herbalist, Xunfan's eyes immediately glowed red when he saw the fruit, and Guan Piaoran was also extremely excited. With this effect, the mortality rate of important generals can be reduced and the sustainability of the war can be increased.
This fruit is a person’s second life. The fruit trees grow on the edge of the cliff, with their branches stretching diagonally into the air. Below is a bottomless abyss, and the branches are only as thick as an arm. If you want to pick fruits, you have to climb fruit trees, which is extremely dangerous.
Xunfan hesitated for a while, but still couldn't bear the excitement in his heart. As a herbalist, it would be a supreme honor to be able to collect this almost lost medicinal material. He slowly climbed up the fruit tree, holding the trunk with one hand and carefully picking the fruits with the other. He picked one and dropped the next, and the people below took over. In the end, there was only one fruit growing on the treetop. Guan Piaoran persuaded Xunfan not to pick it, but Xunfan didn't want to keep any of it.
Just when he caught the fruit, something happened suddenly. Because the branches at the top of the tree were too thin and could not bear Xunfan's weight, they suddenly broke and Xunfan fell rapidly downwards. He reacted quickly, pulled out the short knife used for digging medicine from his waist, inserted it deeply into the cliff wall, and Xunfan hung in the air.
In fact, if Xunfan is willing to use his magical power, he will be safe even if it is a thin branch. Even if it is hanging in the air, as long as he uses a little strength on the rock wall, he can jump back to the top, but he does not want to be exposed in front of everyone.
Guan Piaoran rushed to the edge of the cliff and lay down on the edge, shouting down. When he saw Xunfan's condition, he quickly asked someone to throw a rope to Xunfan. Just when Guan Piaoran was about to throw the rope to him, the dagger suddenly broke, and Xunfan Fan's rapid whereabouts were beyond his control at this critical moment.
Just when he was about to use his magical power, a huge suction force came from him. Xunfan felt that the source energy in his dantian was shackled, and he couldn't move at all.
He knew that this time was a disaster, so he shouted at Guan Piaoran: "Tell Huitian to take care of my family!" Before Guan Piaoran could react, Xunfan suddenly disappeared from Guan Piaoran's sight.
"No, Xunfan, Xunfan." Guan Piaoran screamed while lying on the edge of the cliff. I shouted for a long time, but there was no reply at all. He looked at the baskets and bags of medicinal materials, especially the life-killing fruit, all of which were Xunfan's work. Although he only met Xunfan a few times, he did not have a deep friendship with him. But he has a good relationship with Split Sky, and he often hears Split Sky talking about Xunfan. Moreover, before leaving, Huitian also asked him to take good care of Xunfan.
If it weren't for the great changes that were about to happen this time, they suspected that Xunfan was a cultivator and would have become good friends with him. Now Xunfan fell off the cliff in front of him, dead or alive, he was very sad, "How will I explain to Split Sky when I go back. If, if...he wouldn't..." Guan Piaoran sat on the ground and murmured to himself.
Guan Piaoran also tried to go down, he wanted to find Xunfan's body, but the abyss was so deep that he couldn't go down at all.
Without Xunfan, it was impossible to collect medicinal materials, so Guan Piaoran had no choice but to return sadly with his entourage. After more than a month of walking, I returned to Junhun City and entered the commander's mansion. Just as Lu Yuanxi was listening to the deployment report of the three generals of Split Sky.
Seeing Guan Piaoran come in, Lu Yuanxi asked, "General Guan, how is the matter?"
"Xunfan, he, he..."
