"It really is a thunder grass!"
Lu Zhong's heart felt hot and he immediately jumped towards the medicine field.
Upon seeing this, the remaining Ice Jade Bees surrounded and killed them, but Lu Zhong soon summoned a large number of spirit insects. A fierce battle between the two sides quickly forced the Ice Jade Bees back, and then he continued to fly forward, and soon Soon I saw the long-awaited elixir.
On a purple spiritual field, there are lightning flashes from time to time, and thunder grass grows here.
The branches and leaves are shaped like thunderbolts and are a gorgeous purple-blue color.
Lu Zhong carefully shot a palm thunder, and as expected, it was completely absorbed.
That's right, this is the thunder grass that can withstand thunder disasters!
It's no wonder that Li Wuzhen tried his best to repel Lu Zhong and others. He probably came here just for this purpose, but in the end he lost all his money and even used the jade teleportation talisman that saved his life.
There are many gray and white branches under the Thunder Grass, with different degrees of newness and oldness. Obviously, this Thunder Plant has withered and flourished for many reincarnations. It is now divided into nine branches, indicating that this grass has been growing for 900 years.
According to records in the classics, Thunder Grass will complete its transformation once every thousand years. At that time, its ability to withstand lightning disasters will be greatly enhanced, and it will also have many more magical uses.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhong couldn't help breathing a little heavier. The importance of this grass to him was self-evident. He glanced at the remaining restrictions on the leaves of Thunder Grass, and then turned back to observe the situation of the two people behind him.
Cheng Danan was still lying on the ground and his life and death were unknown, but judging from the steady rise and fall of his breathing, it seemed that he was fine. On Chen Xiaohe's side, he released a yellow umbrella magic weapon, and with a pale face, he meditated under the umbrella to heal his injuries. Obviously neither of them had time to take care of this.
very good!
Lu Zhong withdrew his gaze and focused on the restrictions on the surface of Thunder Grass.
There are thunder patterns that flicker and extinguish, which is the embodiment of the restriction.
Generally speaking, the elixirs in the elixir garden will have protective restrictions, not only to prevent theft and theft, but also to prevent the guards of the elixir garden from stealing. Depending on the preciousness of the elixir, the protective restrictions are also different. .
Once the protection restriction is triggered, it will often make a loud noise and may self-destruct the elixir. The protective restrictions placed on the surface of the Thunder Grass in front of me are this kind of self-destructive restrictions.
So he needs to be very careful, otherwise all his efforts will be in vain.
After standing there and meditating for a moment, Lu Zhong made a spell with both hands and quickly hit several spells on the thunder grass. Suddenly, the thunder patterns that were originally flowing on the blades partially dissipated, and the remaining thunder patterns also changed. He was gloomy and looked very unstable.
"There's something going on!" Lu Zhong was secretly happy.
The person who set up the ban on the Thunder Grass was obviously an expert, extremely skilled and experienced. Originally, he thought he could only hope to break it by force, but this would most likely damage some of the branches and leaves of the Thunder Grass, which would seriously affect its ability to absorb thunder and lightning, greatly reducing the harvest. .
Fortunately, success has benefited from the times.
As time goes by, the prohibition methods in the world of cultivation are not static. As time goes by, more sophisticated and sharper prohibitions will always evolve. Perhaps the prohibition on Thunder Grass was extremely difficult to crack in the old days, but in today's world of cultivation, But there are many solutions.
For example, Lu Zhong is currently using a secret method created by True Lord Lianxing, which is specially designed to break the ancient restrictions.
Finally, all the thunder patterns on the thunder grass disappeared!
Almost at the same time, three black shadows suddenly shot out from the field.
Lu Zhong's expression did not change at this, as if he had expected it. As the lightning flashed in his left hand, thunder and lightning shot out, striking down the black shadows one by one with extreme precision.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" The black shadow was struck by lightning and fell to the ground. It turned out to be a small dark snake.
The little snake's scales were now open and its armor was peeling off, and its whole body was cooked and rotten.
Lu Zhong looked away from the snake corpse, then looked at an uninhabited empty space next to him, sneered in his mouth, and fired another palm thunder in his hand.
Suddenly, a transparent figure appeared there, it was the young cultivator who had just escaped.
Ma Cheng had a gloomy look on his face. He didn't expect that even though he had mastered the three techniques of concealment and invisibility, he was still discovered by Lu Zhong. Logically speaking, when these three techniques were used together, it would be impossible to notice unless the real Jin Dan came in person.
His eyes moved to the bronze mirror in Lu Zhong's hand, and he suddenly realized something.
The fact is just as the boy Ma Cheng expected, Lu Zhong relied on Qingyangjian's delusion-destroying magical power to discover the enemy hidden in the dark, otherwise he would have been plotted if he was not aware of it for a while.
When the attack failed, Ma Cheng's expression changed slightly and he wanted to retreat.
But how could Lu Zhong be able to move the stars and bring out the starlight trajectory as he wished.
In just a blink of an eye, he rushed in front of the opponent.
The Qingyang Mirror surrounding him shot out streaks of mirror light, but Ma Cheng's reaction was also very fast, and his body turned into streaks of black smoke and dissipated. Apparently, he also learned a profound body-blinking technique, and could easily deflect the reflected mirror light. Light dodged and launched a counterattack at the same time.
The two held magical weapons and faced each other, and sparks flew everywhere.
There was a loud "buzz buzz" sound of flapping wings.
But it was Lu Zhong who took the time to summon the swarm of insects that were surrounding and suppressing the Ice Jade Bees from a distance.
After a while, a headless body fell to the ground.
He stretched out his hand to take a picture, and a storage bag fell into Lu Zhong's hands. After dealing with the spoiler, he came to the side of Thunder Grass. Lightning light soon appeared in his left hand. This was the correct way to collect Thunder Grass.
Immediately afterwards, he put the uprooted thunder grass and part of the spiritual soil into the jade box.
"Huh!" Lu Zhong breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although his expression did not change, his heart was actually filled with joy.
With the substitute King Insect and the Thunder Grass, his success rate of overcoming the tribulation will increase by a few points. If he can get three or five spiritual objects such as the Golden Pill that can increase the chance of forming the Pill, then the Golden Pill Road will be almost unimpeded. , becoming a real person is just around the corner.
"Calm down!"
His eyes passed over Ma Cheng, the boy who was still staring at death. He was obviously a cautious person, otherwise he would not have survived as a casual cultivator until now. It was a pity that he was blinded by greed in the end.
If you don't want to end up in the same end, then it is especially necessary to be cautious at all times.
He originally wanted to call someone to help deal with the Ice Jade Bee Swarm, but Lu Zhong turned around and saw that Chen Xiaohe was treating Cheng Danan, so he had to continue to command the insect swarm to fight alone. After such a period of fighting, both the insect swarm and the bee swarm had lost a lot of money. They are all extremely tragic.
But he doesn't care about this, after all, raising spiritual insects is very troublesome.
A person's total energy is limited. Now that he has dabbled in two talisman formations, and also has skills and spells such as Nongyan Jue and Yumai Gong to practice, he really has no time to distract others.
Even for the breeding of substitute king insects, Lu Zhong plans to directly purchase finished insect pulp in the future, or simply replace it with spiritual liquid. The latter method of cultivation is very expensive, but the effect is much better than insect pulp and saves time. Not only does it save effort, it is also very convenient to purchase.
This cleanup took most of the day.
The insect corpses were stored in three storage bags, with a volume of more than thirty square meters.
There are about thirty strains of elixirs in the medicine field, most of which are over a hundred years old, and their value is not low.
After exterminating the Ice Jade Bee colony, in addition to capturing an Ice Jade Queen Bee, I also harvested a lot of Ice Jade Bee Spirit Honey.
This kind of spiritual honey does not contain much spiritual energy, but it tastes very good. The spiritual wine brewed from this kind of spiritual honey and spiritual fruits is the famous "Bingyu Shao" in the world of cultivation. One sip can It has the function of restoring mana, which is not as good as most recuperation elixirs, but it is better because there is no accumulation of erysipelas.
Queen Bee Lu Zhong doesn't want to distract herself from raising them, but she doesn't want to let go of these spiritual honeys.
It tastes really good after all!
On the other side, Cheng Danan finally got out of his critical state after some treatment, but he was still very weak and had no strength to move at all. He was being taken care of by Chen Xiaohe.
Looking at this scene, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Lingyue Sect would be a major sect of Yuanying, which naturally makes sense.
This kind of mutual support among the disciples in the sect was not found in the Heling Sect in the past. Feixing Xuanyue Tuoyang's three meridians appeared to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact there were many things that made them stumbling in secret.
It’s no wonder that it ended up being divided into sects.
"Fellow Taoist Cheng, according to the agreement, this is the benefit you deserve." Lu Zhong handed out a storage bag with a lot of elixirs in it, and handed over the Ice Jade Queen Bee as well.
"No, no need." Cheng Danan waved his hand and refused.
Defeating Li Wuzhen was definitely a great achievement for him and Chen Xiaohe.
And this credit was all thanks to Lu Zhong. If he hadn't forced Li Wuzhen to withdraw from Shen Yuan Palace in the end, the two of them would have been killed by Li Wuzhen instead of being unable to make any contribution.
Seeing what the other party said, Lu Zhong took the things back without being pretentious.
When talking about future plans, Chen Xiaohe said that he wanted to take care of Cheng Danan, so he did not plan to continue exploring in the future, but was preparing to set up a magic circle and wait for the secret realm to be closed at the end of the month.
"In that case, Fellow Daoist Cheng and Fellow Daoist Chen, please take care of yourself!" Lu Zhong cupped his hands and said.
"I wish you Taoist friends a prosperous and prosperous day!"
Cheng Danan and Chen Xiaohe looked at each other and wished in unison.
…
Jinshuitan is located in the southwest of the upper floor of Shenyuan Palace. It is said to be a pool, but in fact it is a giant lake. The lake is vast and has islands of various sizes, either scattered or appearing like a chain of beads. Because of the vast number of islands growing in the lake, There are large areas of golden water lilies, so when you look at the scattered golden dots from a distance, it is a wonderful sight.
Because the golden water lotus has a wonderful effect on Kun cultivation, it often attracts a large number of female cultivators during the opening period of Shen Yuan Palace.
For example, the girl Shi Qingqing under Lu Zhong is one of them.
This girl comes from the Qionghua Sect, and her appearance is considered outstanding among the Kun cultivators. She originally came in with a disciple of the Lingyue Sect to explore, but due to an accident, the two were forced to separate. Now while waiting for the other party to arrive, she also does something on the way. Earn spiritual stones as a side job.
"I'm ready!" Lu Zhong reminded after taking advantage of the situation.
I gained a lot of yin energy from this woman, and finally the fire energy in my body was consumed.
It has to be said that cultivating with the help of Kun Xiu Yin Yuan is indeed a shortcut. If this were not the case, I am afraid that his cultivation would not be able to progress so fast.
After handing the agreed one hundred spirit stones to the other party, Lu Zhong asked about Su Xuer's whereabouts.
"A female cultivator holding a little beast? Hee hee, I didn't expect fellow Taoists to like this type. No wonder I got tired of the slave's body right away." Shi Qingqing took a few cleansing charms on her body to remove the sticky stains on her body. He also teased Lu Zhong, then turned his beautiful eyes and recalled: "On the way here, the slave family seemed to have seen such a Taoist friend, but..."
"But what..." As soon as Lu Zhong heard this, he knew what she wanted to say, but in order to complete the agreement early and take time to explore Shen Yuan Palace, he still asked patiently.
"Fellow Taoist cares about her so much. This girl must be extremely important to you. I want a hundred spirit stones for this news. Isn't that too much?" Shi Qingqing stretched out her onion finger and a smile appeared at the corner of her red lips. Her meaning was very clear. .
Lu Zhong frowned, but still took out a hundred spirit stones and said displeased: "Tell me, what's wrong with her?"
"Hehe, I'm going to tell my Taoist friends about the water mirror technique now!" Shi Qingqing took the spirit stone, weighed it, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then made a hand and chanted a spell, and soon a water mirror formed.
From the perspective of the water mirror, you can see a green lion running wildly in the forest below. There is a woman sitting on its back. It is Su Xu'er that Lu Zhong is looking for. She is stained with blood in many places. It can be seen that the situation is not good. Great, at that time I was being chased by several black shadows.
"The slave family has seen so much information, are these one hundred spirit stones still worth it?" Shi Qingqing stopped pouring mana into the water mirror, and the mirror suddenly became calm as before, reflecting her face. While dressing, she also Side said: "The place where I saw this girl is Jiangpuppet Forest, a hundred miles due north of here. It is not a good place. If you want to go in and save people, you must be prepared in advance."
"Thanks for the reminder!" Lu Zhong said with cupped hands.
"Seriously, why don't you come here a few more times? It's rare to see someone as considerate as fellow Taoist. At most... the slave family won't accept spiritual stones from fellow daoist." Shi Qingqing nodded her red lips with her fingers and tossed With charming eyes, he said coquettishly
"No, I don't lack that bit of happiness." Lu Zhong said goodbye with his hands in hand.
Now that Su Xuer is dead or alive, how can he still have such thoughts? Besides, it is tiring enough. After all, he has to be wary of the other party at all times, and it can be said that there is no fun in the process.
"Hey, don't walk so fast. How about giving this illusion array to your family?"
"It's yours!"
Without saying a word, Lu Zhong walked out of the illusion formation at his feet and suddenly appeared on a small island in the lake. After identifying the location, he directly launched the wood spirit wind boat and accelerated toward the descending puppet forest regardless of the dangers he might encounter on the way. Fly away.
According to the information given by Liu Piao Niang, Jiangpuppet Forest is one of the few dangerous places in Shen Yuan Palace.
The known danger here is that there are a large number of out-of-control puppets wandering around, including puppets whose strength is comparable to that of the fake elixir realm. And because the products here are too barren, in all the explorations over the years, it has never been reported that Yu has gained a lot here. According to rumors, even Lingyue Sect and Hua Yiguan's many explorations came back empty-handed.
Therefore, few people visit this place.
Along the way, after killing three evil birds without eyes, Lu Zhong came to the Jiangpuppet Forest.
There is a stone tablet written in silver script in front of the forest. There are many traces of swords and spells on it, and there is even the words "so and so is here". Looking at the black forest with towering ancient trees and gray mist, he did not hesitate at all. Just take a big step and walk in.
Following the traces along the way, we soon arrived at the location where Su Xuer appeared that day.
