Ning Tao, who was plucked by wild goose, didn't care whether these elixirs were mature or not, he plucked them all, keeping the young seedlings for planting, and the mature ones for trading and alchemy.
Continuing to move forward for several more miles, the number of Yin Vipers at this time gradually decreased, but the Yin Qi became heavier and heavier.
As the saying goes, when something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Seeing this situation, Ning Tao's expression gradually became serious.
Going deeper into Lixu, I saw countless decayed skeletons piled up in a place that was hundreds of feet wide. Among them were the skeletons of huge monster beasts, countless humanoid skeletons, and countless broken magic weapons scattered among them.
There were lines of black vipers swimming among the bones. Seeing this, Ning Tao couldn't help but look slightly happy, and then turned very serious.
Because he found a cave behind the skeleton, close to the stone wall, and there were dark vipers in this cave from time to time, swimming in and out of the body.
Thinking of the reason for the formation of the secret realm of the Ancient Demon Sect, Ning Tao thought that this place was probably the battlefield site among the monks, so there would be an explanation for the presence of so many vipers here, which coincided with Ning Tao's conjecture. combine.
However, Ning Tao wanted to enter the cave, but he couldn't avoid these vipers.
Fortunately, these vipers are not very strong physically except for their venom and stealth talents.
Thinking of this, Ning Tao walked along the canyon wall not far from the skeleton. Finally, he found a depression on the canyon wall and arranged thirteen blood soul flags.
Then the blood evil formation was activated, and more than a hundred feet of blood-colored mist spread instantly, and thirteen ghosts were swimming in it like a fish in water.
The Yin Vipers not far away noticed something strange here, and several Yin Vipers swam their dark bodies to the edge of the blood mist, raising their bodies and looking at the black mist they had never seen before.
At this moment, several blood-black arms suddenly poked out from it. The frightened Viper had no time to react, and was caught by these ghost claws into the blood mist.
I saw the ghost in the blood mist grasping the twisted body of the Dark Viper with two hands, ignoring its bites on the body, swallowing it like spicy strips, with a look of satisfaction on its face.
But it is the toxin on the Yin Viper, which is effective on the soul, and has no effect at all on these ghosts.
Seeing this situation, thousands of Yin Vipers among the corpses swam their dark bodies towards the blood mist, like a black tide.
This group of black snakes lost their way after entering the blood evil formation, going around and around, but could never get close to Ning Tao's position.
At this time, Ning Tao activated the green wood shield in front of him, and a green shield completely covered it. He controlled the flying sword with one hand, wandering among the group of dark vipers in the distance, sending out swords one after another from time to time. Light.
Every time the sword light fell, several Yin Vipers were cut into two sections, and a pale green liquid flowed from the broken snake body.
Thirteen ghosts were also hidden in the blood mist. From time to time, they grabbed vipers one after another, crushed their heads and put them into their mouths.
The diffuse blood mist was like a living thing, pouring into the Yin Viper's broken body, causing the still-dead Yin Viper to scream in pain, and after a while, only a pile of snake bones was left.
An hour passed, and only a few dozen vipers were left in the blood mist, still circling around inside, being caught one by one by the ghosts in the blood mist, and becoming food in their mouths.
Ning Tao sat cross-legged in the depression of the stone wall to recover his magic power. After recovering, he opened his eyes and looked at the blood demon in front of him that had turned a bit darker in color, and his spiritual thoughts came out.
It was discovered that the blood demon released by the blood soul banner had expanded another hundred feet. The one-horned ghost king in the main banner was fine, but the other ghosts had two more bulges growing on their heads because they had devoured a large amount of monster flesh, flesh, and souls.
Ning Tao frowned slightly when he saw this strange behavior, wondering what he was thinking.
As the power of the Blood Soul Banner increased rapidly in a short period of time, Ning Tao felt vaguely like he was out of his control.
If it weren't for the sudden increase in power in a short period of time, Ning Tao would not have noticed such anomalies. He might have become a frog in a boiling frog, and was eventually eaten by these ghosts.
Ning Tao guessed that the strange behavior of the Blood Soul Banner should be related to the changes in the ghosts of these sub-banners, but for now, the Blood Soul Banner is still under control.
If he feels that he cannot control it later, he will prepare to use the sealing talisman to seal it first.
Even if a powerful method is lost because of this, he must not let the ghosts escape his control and backfire on him.
Ning Tao, who had regained all his magic power, used the Blood Soul Flag to come to the monk's cave behind the bones. The ghosts used the thick black fog of blood to enter and clear the obstacles for Ning Tao first.
Just as Ning Tao was about to enter, a harsh neighing sound suddenly came from inside.
After a moment, a giant viper, several feet in size, covered in dark scales and with a single horn on its head roared out.
This huge sinister viper opened its bloody mouth towards Ning Tao, and it neighed for a while, then turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Ning Tao.
Ning Tao, who had no time to react, hurriedly activated the Aoki Shield to the extreme. The Dark Viper King was mounted on the shield activated by the Aoki Shield, and instantly shattered the shield released by the Aoki Shield.
The Dark Viper King, who shattered the Aoki Shield shield, lacked enough stamina. The horn on his head hit the Aoki Shield heavily, and the attack was blocked by the Aoki Shield.
Ning Tao, who had time to breathe, quickly stepped back, but without slowing down his movements, he took out five Heavenly Thunder Talisman from the storage bag, pinched it in his hand, squeezed the spell, and threw it towards the Yin Viper King.
Several thunderbolts the size of bowls appeared out of thin air and struck directly and heavily on the Yin Viper King, who failed to attack. The Yin Viper King screamed in pain, and its scales flew everywhere where the thunder came in contact.
After completing these actions, Ning Tao flicked his sleeves and robe, and several golden lights flashed in front of him. Layers of golden barriers firmly protected Ning Tao.
After reacting, the Yin Viper King opened his mouth wide, and Yin green mist spurted out from his mouth, directly wrapping Ning Tao.
After a while, the outermost golden shield was corroded into pits, ready to be broken at any time, but the color of the green poisonous mist was also a little lighter due to consumption.
Ning Tao inside the golden shield shook the blood soul flag, and thirteen ghosts controlled the blood evil mist and pounced on the Yin Viper King one after another.
Except for the one-horned ghost king who was originally in the fierce ghost realm, the other ghosts couldn't even break through their defenses. They could only try to attack the injured part of the Yin Viper King to act as a containment.
Because the scales of the Yin Viper King were shattered by the thunder of five second-order thunder talismans just now, his whole body was numb and his movements were slow.
Moreover, the blood evil mist kept trying to penetrate into the Yin Viper King's body along the wound, which made it unable to deal with Ning Tao inside the golden barrier.
After completing these actions, Ning Tao, regardless of the green poisonous mist that continued to corrode the golden shield, took out a talisman with purple-gold light from the storage bag, circulated his true energy, and used all his strength to activate the talisman.
After a while, the recovered Yin Viper King got rid of the entanglement of the ghosts and turned into a black shadow and attacked Ning Tao inside the golden barrier. However, at this time, the talisman in Ning Tao's hand had been successfully activated, and he shouted in his hand: "go."
Then a ray of purple-gold light flew out from the shield, penetrated the Yin Viper King who opened its ferocious snake mouth, flew out from the back of the head, and then turned back through the snake's body and returned to Ning Tao's hand.
Ning Tao held the white talisman with all its brilliance dissipated in his hand, and saw the unabated King Viper slamming into the golden barrier, breaking through two layers of barriers and falling in front of the last layer of golden barriers.
Seeing this, Ning Tao sat cross-legged in the golden shield, breathing heavily, staring at the body of the Dark Viper King in front of him.
At this time, Ning Tao had time to carefully look at the Yin Viper King in front of him. He saw that the Yin Viper King was six to seven feet long. It was different from the smooth ordinary Yin Viper. This snake king had jet black scales all over its head. It also has a horn that is several inches long.
Seeing this one-horned Ning Tao couldn't help but think of a word, "turn into a dragon."
No wonder this sinister viper king is so difficult to deal with, but right now I can't handle this guy's body.
Ning Tao didn't expect that he had been very careful and almost capsized the boat in the ditch, but luckily he was able to kill him successfully.
Seeing a group of ghosts eager to devour the corpse of the Ghost Snake King, Ning Tao ignored the ghosts and directly opened a storage bag that contained nothing and put it in.
Then he took back the rest of the ghosts into the Blood Soul Banner, leaving only the One-horned Ghost King beside him to protect him. He sat cross-legged and restored his magic power.
Ning Tao, who had recovered his magic power, put the snake bones from the group of sinister vipers on the ground into a storage bag, and then summoned the ghosts, activating the bloody fog, and prepared to enter the incomplete cave.
When they came to the entrance of the cave, they first asked the ghosts to enter and explore. After finding that there was no living thing inside, they set up a blood evil array at the entrance of the cave and ordered the ghosts to wait here, and then stepped into it.
Entering the cave, what you see is a hall with an area of acre. The stone chairs and tables in it have been broken. You can only imagine what it once looked like from the exquisite patterns on it.
Entering the two slightly smaller side halls on both sides of the hall, they saw the same dilapidated scene. The stone chairs and tables in them were also broken to the ground.
Ning Tao, who had gained nothing, came to the back of the hall. There was nothing in the middle, but there were several stone chambers around. Entering them, there was nothing but some tools and gravel.
After some fruitless exploration, Ning Tao walked towards the passage to the inner chamber, entered it, and after walking for more than ten steps, suddenly he saw another acres of space, with more than ten stone chambers scattered around, one by one. Get into it.
At this time, Ning Tao finally found something useful. In a huge stone chamber with an area of more than ten acres, there were patches of snake grass growing, many of which were mature, with red fruits the size of thumbs on their heads. It looks very pleasing.
Ning Tao was overjoyed when he saw this. There was a detailed explanation of this thing in the classics he had read before. Snake grass is an elixir that grows near snakes and monsters. It is a strange medicine for refining various detoxification pills. Its grade follows that of snakes. It depends on the cultivation level of the monster. Taking it directly can increase the monk's resistance to poison.
