An uninhabited cave about ten miles away from Hengshan Danzong.
Xiao Nuo rested for two whole days.
"call!"
On a stone platform in the cave, Xiao Nuo opened his mouth slightly and exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"I didn't expect that using the 'Bronze Armor' once would consume so much..." Xiao Nuo said.
"Buzz!"
The Hongmeng Golden Pagoda in his body responded.
Ta Ling's voice came next.
"If it weren't for the bronze armor, how could you defeat four first-grade disciples with one against four?"
"That's true!"
Xiao Nuo did not deny that the realms of Li Mu, Xu Ge, Liu Shuang, and Xu Yuance were all above him.
Xu Yuance, in particular, has reached the eighth level of Qi Control Realm.
Without the defense of "bronze armor", with Xiao Nuo's methods, there is a high probability that he would not be able to catch Xu Yuance's last killing move.
The defensive strength of bronze armor is far beyond that of a bronze shield.
But the flaw is also obvious, that is, it consumes too much spiritual energy.
In the battle with Hengshan Dan Sect, Xiao Nuo almost exhausted all his physical and spiritual energy.
Ta Ling said: "Generally speaking, your own cultivation is still insufficient. If you can reach the 'Psychic Realm', the spiritual power in your body can support the consumption of the 'Bronze Armor'."
Xiao Nuo replied: "I also want to enter the psychic realm as soon as possible..."
Xiao Nuo knew very well that bigger and more severe challenges were yet to come.
The time for his life-and-death bet with Liang Xingchen will only become less and less.
Behind Liang Xingchen, there was Feng Hanyu, the young master of the Sword Sect who had killed seven top geniuses in Nirvana Hall.
They are all Xiao Nuo's targets.
A goal that must be crossed.
Then, Xiao Nuo thought, and a golden elixir appeared in his hand.
The best Tianyuan Pill.
Xiao Nuo had only heard of this elixir from other people's mouths before, but had never seen it with his own eyes.
This time, Xiao Nuo obtained a total of six top-grade Tianyuan Pills. If word spreads about this, he will definitely become the target of public criticism.
Based on Xiao Nuo's understanding of Tianyuan Pill, his current cultivation level is not the best time to use this pill.
Generally speaking, for monks at the Qi Control stage, the higher the level, the better the effect of Tianyuan Dan.
Many monks who have been stuck in the ninth level of the Qi Control Realm for many years rely on a Tianyuan Pill to break through the barrier of the Psychic Realm and thus step into the ranks of martial arts masters.
Xiao Nuo just admired it for a moment and then took the Tianyuan Pill back.
It had been less than three days since he reached the fifth level of the Qi Control Realm, and his foundation was not yet solid, so there was no need to use the Tianyuan Pill prematurely.
Furthermore, Tianyuan Dan can only exert its best effect when it is used for the first time.
By the time you take the second pill, the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced.
Each subsequent pill will be much less effective than the last one.
Immediately, Xiao Nuo's left hand palm faced up, and his five fingers moved slightly.
"Buzz!"
Immediately afterwards, five rays of light of different colors gathered in Xiao Nuo's palm.
Afterwards, a dazzling five-color lotus appeared in the air.
The Five Elements Lotus is enchanting and dreamy.
The five spiritual powers are intertwined with each other, creating an indescribable charm.
"I don't know what the magical function of this Five Elements Lotus is. Let me study it carefully..."
Xiao Nuo was not in a hurry to leave the cave.
There is no need to rush to meet the people in Nirvana Hall.
Xiao Nuo still knows the principle of sharpening a knife before chopping wood.
Only by improving one's own abilities can all problems encountered later be solved.
Xiao Nuo thought that his methods against the enemy were still lacking, and there were not many weapons and magic weapons that he could borrow.
There is no reason to take away the Five Elements Lotus and the Cloud Staff of Truth and use them.
This research took nearly a day.
The next day.
Xiao Nuo finally had a more comprehensive understanding of the Five Elements Lotus.
With the help of the Hongmeng Golden Pagoda Spirit, Xiao Nuo discovered five different powers from the Five Elements Lotus.
Golden·Spiral Blade Killing Formation!
It is forbidden to stab wood and pickets!
Water·Water Technique!
Earth·Earth Hidden Technique!
Fire Flame Dragon Dances in Heaven!
These five powers are all activated by the magic weapon Five Elements Lotus.
The Whirling Blade Killing Formation is a pure attack formation.
Stake Forbidden Stab is a seal and attack technique.
Water walking is an auxiliary skill. Using this skill, you can walk on the water as if on flat ground, and you can also go deep under the water without being affected.
Earth Hiding Technique is also an auxiliary skill. It can hide in the earth and when encountering a strong enemy and needs to escape, it can also use "Earth Hiding Technique" to escape.
As for "Flaming Dragon Heavenly Dance", the name is naturally an attack skill.
Because the Five Elements Lotus lacks a fire attribute power, only the first four skill formations can be used.
As for the fifth "Flaming Dragon Heavenly Dance", it cannot be used.
Overall, the magic weapon Five Elements Lotus gave Xiao Nuo a big surprise.
The first four skills alone are quite practical.
"That Taoist Di You is truly a capable person from the human race. He was able to create such a comprehensive magic weapon..."
Xiao Nuo sincerely admired Taoist Di You.
It has to be said that the destruction of Youyuan State is quite a pity.
If there had not been the demonic disaster three hundred years ago, with the talents gathered in Youyuan Prefecture, Youyuan Prefecture would have become a powerful force today.
But history cannot be changed, and Youyuan Prefecture will eventually be submerged in the ruins of time.
Xiao Nuo put away the sigh in his heart, and then began to try to use the first power of the Five Elements Lotus, the Whirling Blade Killing Formation!
"Buzz!"
Xiao Nuo activated the spiritual energy in his body, and a chaotic air flow swirled around the Five Elements Lotus.
Five light whirlpools rotated around the Five Elements Lotus at high speed, and the other four light whirlpools quickly penetrated into the golden airflow.
"Wow!"
In an instant, the Five Elements Lotus shone brightly, and a miniature golden array appeared.
This golden formation wheel is about half a meter in diameter, with intricate patterns on its edges, and each pattern is dazzling.
"Qiang!"
The low sound of sharp weapons resounded, and the Five Elements Lotus immediately merged into the formation and turned into five golden blades of light.
These five light blades are in a semi-illusory, semi-solid state. Their shape is similar to a short sword, with edges on both sides.
Xiao Nuo controlled the power of Five Elements Lotus, raised his arm slightly, and the five light blades rotated rapidly, like a revolving lantern, magnificent and dazzling.
"What a strong spiritual power fluctuation..."
Xiao Nuo's eyes shone brightly, and he was surprised and happy.
He could clearly feel the strength of the spiritual energy contained in these five light blades. As long as Xiao Nuo made a thought, the five light blades could be thrown out from the air, bursting out with powerful lethality.
"Sure enough, I found a treasure!"
Xiao Nuo was secretly happy.
With this Five Elements Lotus, it can slightly make up for the shortcomings in weapons and magic weapons.
If we were to face the four first-grade disciples, Xu Yuance, Liu Shuang, Li Mu, and Xu Ge, the battle might be much simpler.
…
Afternoon time!
Xiao Nuo left the cave.
Perhaps because he stayed in a dark place for too long, Xiao Nuo's skin looked much fairer than before.
Under the sunlight, there is a faint sense of transparency.
"It's time to go find Senior Brother Guanxiang and the others..."
He has been separated from the main force for three or four days. It is estimated that Senior Brother Lou Qing should send people to look for him everywhere.
Then, Xiao Nuo left here.
In about half an hour, Xiao Nuo came to the edge of a desert.
The desert is not barren.
Looking from a distance, there are several oases inside.
There is also a long stretch of water passing through.
In addition, there are the withered bones and corpses of the monsters, and even the remaining bones of humans.
"Xiao, Junior Brother Xiao Nuo..."
Just as Xiao Nuo was considering whether to enter this desert, a weak voice suddenly came.
"Huh?" Xiao Nuo's eyes trembled. He looked sideways and saw a wounded young man running towards Xiao Nuo.
There were many wounds on the other party's body, and bones could be seen in some places.
This was obviously seriously injured by the monster's claws.
Xiao Nuo recognized this person. He was a disciple of Nirvana Hall. His name was unclear, but Xiao Nuo remembered that his surname was Qian.
"Senior Brother Qian..." Xiao Nuo quickly stepped forward to support him.
Before Xiao Nuo could ask any more questions, the other party held Xiao Nuo's arm and said, "Quickly, go help Senior Brother Lou Qing and the others... We have captured a juvenile 'Desert Six-clawed Beast'."
Desert six-clawed beast?
Hearing this name, Xiao Nuo's heart lit up.
This is a ferocious monster that is even more advanced than the Phantom Poison Beast.
Adult phantom poison beasts can grow to "general level", and although most of the desert six-clawed beasts are also "general-level" monsters, a small number of desert six-clawed beasts can evolve to "handsome level".
If the phantom poison beast in its infancy can be exchanged for 5,000 points of sect contribution, then the desert six-clawed beast can definitely reach 7,000 points, or even 8,000 points...
"Are your injuries caused by the six-clawed desert beast?" Xiao Nuo asked in a deep voice.
"No, it's not... we have successfully captured the six-clawed desert beast, but when we were evacuating, we encountered people from the 'Tian Gu Sect'. They controlled a large number of ferocious monsters and wanted to snatch our prey. I tried my best to escape just to find someone for help..."
"Where are they?"
"It's just a few miles away in Tucheng!"
"I see!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Nuo moved straight forward.
…
now!
In a desert earth city.
Dozens of ferocious beasts were entrenched, occupying the ground and blocking the sky. Their ferocious heads even emerged from the sand.
A group of people from Nirvana Hall were forced into a small attic.
At the door of the attic, Chang Qing and Guan Xiang held the door open.
On the ground not far away, Lou Qing was sitting on the ground, his chest heaving. Lan Meng next to him was anxiously tending to Lou Qing's injuries.
"I was careless. I didn't expect the six-clawed desert beasts in their infancy to be so powerful..."
Lou Qing covered his bleeding chest with one hand and held Han Qiang with the other.
The gun body was leaning on the ground, and it looked in very poor condition.
Part of Lou Qing's injuries were caused by people from the Tiangu Sect controlling the ferocious monster, and part of them were caused when he captured the six-clawed desert beast.
A group of people from the Nirvana Palace watched the six-clawed beast in the desert for three days, setting numerous traps in the desert, and finally waited until it took the bait.
But the six-clawed desert beast was much more difficult to deal with than the phantom poison beast, and it kept trying to break through.
And its strength is already infinitely close to the "Psychic Realm", which means that this desert six-clawed beast has a high probability of evolving into a "handsome-level" spiritual beast.
Its value is much higher than that of the phantom poison beast in its infancy.
Naturally, the people in Nirvana Palace were unwilling to give up and had to bring them back to the Piaomiao Sect.
Lou Qing is responsible for the main attack, and the others provide assistance.
At the most critical moment, the Desert Six-clawed Beast unleashed its special move, "Sand Sound Wave".
Lou Qing took the move head-on and traded his own injuries for everyone's success.
In fact, after capturing the Phantom Poison Beast, everyone in the Nirvana Palace had a clearer goal.
Capturing sect-protecting spirit beasts for your sect is the fastest way to increase your contribution points.
But again, this method is the most risky.
No one can accurately estimate how powerful a ferocious monster is, and adult ferocious monsters may be encountered near juvenile ferocious monsters, so accidents may occur.
When he captured the phantom poison beast before, it was Lou Qing who personally lured the adult phantom poison beast away.
Only the other people in the Nirvana Palace besieged the young phantom poisonous beast.
However, what everyone in the Nirvana Hall did not expect was that the people they met this time turned out to be people from the Tiangu Sect.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the attic door was knocked open.
Chang Qing, who was standing at the door, thought that the two of them would also fly out.
The expressions of Lou Qing, Lan Meng and others changed. They saw a rhinoceros beast with scarlet eyes, four to five meters tall, and a body covered with rock armor standing at the door of the dusty attic.
"Stone-armored rhinoceros!"
A disciple of Nirvana Hall exclaimed.
"Roar!" Before anyone could react, the Stone-armored Rhinoceros suddenly used its hooves and burst into flames, rushing in like a warship.
"Get out of the way!" Lou Qing pushed Lan Meng away, and then he held the spear in front of him with both arms to block.
"Bang!"
The huge impact of Shi Jia Xi hit Lou Qing in front of him. Lou Qing immediately left the ground and moved towards the rear.
"Boom!"
Under Shijiaxi's collision, the attic was immediately smashed through. With rocks flying everywhere, Lou Qing flew directly out of the attic.
Everyone in Nirvana Hall was shocked.
Immediately afterwards, the Shijiaxi ran rampant in the attic, and in the blink of an eye, the entire attic collapsed.
Lan Meng, Chang Qing, Guan Xiang and other Nirvana Hall disciples fell out in disgrace.
"Roar!"
The angry stone-armored rhinoceros continued to charge at one of them. Its sharp rhinoceros horn was like a sharp blade. Once it hit, it would definitely disembowel him.
The disciple of Nirvana Palace turned pale: "I'm dead..."
"Uh-huh!"
It was too late, but soon, Lou Qing got up from the ground and threw out the Black Iron Cold Spear in his hand.
"Qiang!"
The spear shot out like a dragon, tearing apart the air. The Black Iron Cold Spear was like a sharp lightning bolt, directly piercing the stone-armored rhinoceros' body from the side.
The Stone-armored Rhinoceros immediately flew out, struggled feebly on the ground twice, and then stopped moving.
The disciple of the Nirvana Hall saved his life. While still feeling frightened, his eyes looked at Lou Qing with gratitude.
But Lou Qing himself was seriously injured. He had just launched another offensive. He staggered twice and a stream of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Senior brother..."
Lan Meng, Chang Qing, Guan Xiang and others immediately surrounded them.
"Brother, how are you?"
Everyone looked nervous and showed concern.
Lou Qing is comparable to the "soul of the team". If he falls, everyone's cohesion will collapse.
"Hahahaha, what an admirable will, you can't even fall down..."
At this time, a sarcastic sound reached everyone's ears.
I saw two young men standing proudly above the city tower in front of them.
The two look somewhat similar, and their names are: Ding Qiu and Ding Fei.
He is both a brother and a famous Gu genius in the Tian Gu Sect.
"What do you want?" Lan Meng said in a cold tone.
"Haha..." Ding Qiu chuckled: "It's very simple. We are interested in that six-clawed desert beast. If you want to leave safely, just hand it over..."
"Then what if I don't give it?" Lou Qing's eyes were firm.
Ding Qiu smiled even more proudly, and the contempt in his eyes became even greater: "I have recently refined a new Gu, called the 'Corpse Transformation Gu'. Once targeted by it, it will turn into a corpse in less than a day." You zombies who obey our words, do you...want to give it a try?"
