After Yu Wan was tapped on the forehead by Mei Zu, she entered the bright white space again.
She saw with her own eyes that the black sun above her head was tightly surrounded by a plum that was half purple, red, and white. Then, there were pillars of flesh protruding from the surface of the plum from time to time.
Yu Wan guessed that it should be caused by the collision of the black sun inside.
Not knowing how to get out, she just sat there quietly and looked up at the meat column that protruded from time to time. Slowly, the protrusions became smaller and less frequent.
When there was no bulge after waiting for a long time, she heard a call.
"Huh~huh~huh~"
"Hahahaha~ha~"
"Yu Wan! Yu Wan!..."
Amidst the constant alternation of calls, Yu Wan slowly opened his eyes.
What he saw in front of him was the picture of Li Nian, who was in a state of embarrassment, relaxing and lying on the ground groaning tiredly at his feet.
"You guys...what's going on?" Yu Wan asked in confusion.
"I also want to ask you what's wrong. I was just stunned with a bowl of plum soup, and a transparent barrier was raised around it. I couldn't break it. The barrier just disappeared." Li Nian stood there and explained angrily. .
Yu Wan was a little surprised. She looked down at the plum soup in her hands that had no coolness at all, and began to recall everything just now.
She only remembered that after finishing a bowl, she just wanted to taste the sweet soup cooked with plums on the riverside, and then...
Yu Wan frowned in thought, but she didn't remember anything.
I carefully inspected the plum soup in my hand and found nothing unusual. I raised my head and drank it all. It was the same as the bowl just now, and it clearly tasted the same.
His consciousness was about to check the plum soup in the ring, but Li Nian said at this moment, "Forget it, pack up quickly, we have to leave for Boshui Lake."
When he interrupted her, she looked up at the sky and saw that it was already noon.
She didn't have time to think deeply, put away the jade bowl, packed up the formation, and headed southeast with Li Nian and Heng Ha.
At this time, by Boshui Lake, two disciples dressed in moon-white dark green clothes and indigo-blue clothes were discussing with each other. Behind them stood a disciple in months-long white light green clothes and ivory white and turquoise blue clothes.
"Senior Brother Wang, are you serious about what you said?" The man in indigo clothes asked uncertainly.
"Of course, haven't you heard of the name of my senior brother Zonglong?" The man in moon-white and dark green clothes vowed, patting his chest.
"Then how will it be distributed in the end?" The man in indigo clothes continued to ask.
"Six points for me, six points for you. Junior Brother Wu should know that this opportunity is rare. If I hadn't made good friends with Junior Brother Wu, I wouldn't have been able to take advantage of others." The man in moon-white and dark green clothes advised the man in indigo-green clothes.
The man thought for a moment and knew that this was a good opportunity to get something good without any effort. He nodded and agreed, "In that case, how do we arrange it?"
"Junior brother, don't be anxious, listen to me carefully."
The man in moon-white and dark green clothes whispered there for more than half an hour. After they were done, they separated and walked into their respective teams behind them. They added and corrected their words and explained again.
At this point, the two teams reached a consensus and began to make arrangements according to the plan of the man in white, dark and green.
Zheng~
Li Nian withdrew his mace, turned around, raised his eyebrows and said to Wan, "How about this Qiu Kui that I hunted as a snack tonight?"
Yu Wan saw that his high-spirited look was different from the poise he usually wore outside. She nodded and said, "Further east is the Sea of Ecstasy Flowers. I need to go there to pick some spiritual things. How about you?"
"Of course, the Red Blood Fruit and Bihou Kui there are the main raw materials of the Foundation Establishment Pill. The more the better."
Li Nian put away Qiu Kui's body and replied.
Yu Wan nodded and continued, "In that case, let's go to the top of the hill to rest tonight, and go straight into the Sea of Ecstasy tomorrow morning."
"Let's go and see who reaches the top first."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Nian took the lead and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing this, Yu Wan shook his head, lowered his head and said to Heng Ha, "We can't lose to him. If we win, we will go to the top of the mountain to drink plum soup and eat barbecue. I will stew some big bones for you tomorrow morning."
"Hmph!"
"Ha ha!"
Heng Ha agreed, and Heng Heng took the lead and ran out with all his strength.
When Yu Wan couldn't see it anymore, he took up his Lingbo Bagua steps and chased after him. From time to time he used his thunder escape technique, and soon surpassed Hengha and caught up with Li Nian.
The ending was naturally obvious. Yu Wan arrived first, followed by Li Nian, and then Heng Ha.
After Yu Wan put down the formation, he poured out a bowl of iced rouge plum soup and placed it on the square table. Then he lit a bonfire and processed the ingredients needed to stew the bones with sauce.
Li Nian dealt with the newly beheaded Qiu Kui at the edge of the formation away from her. He held a white jade bowl of plum soup in his left hand and sipped it without affecting the operation of the light blade in his right hand.
After separating out the materials that could be used to refine the weapon, he handed the remaining edible portion to Yu Wan, who came over, and then went to the side to concentrate on drinking plum soup.
Under Yu Wan's hands, she quickly broke down the remaining ingredients into diced meat, stick bones and ribs.
After the water falls, put the stick bones into the prepared casserole, put away the ribs, skewer the meat, and place them around the campfire.
Yu Wan gave herself a cleansing spell, sat down in the rest area, and started to stare at the meat skewers, while taking out the boneless and spicy ice chicken feet, and ate them one bite at a time with the plum soup.
Heng Ha also immersed himself in drinking plum soup and eating chicken feet.
When Li Nian saw one person, one... and two beasts eating so happily, he also took out the same type of chicken feet from his Wanxiang bucket, sat down and started eating.
Soon, after the meat skewers were grilled and they had eaten and drank enough, they lowered the fire at night and continued to stew the stick bones, then closed their eyes and started a new day of practice.
The night is getting darker, the wind is still there, and the busy people are still making arrangements, fully expecting the prey to be caught in the net soon.
On the morning of the next day, the two of them each wore Qiu Kui's small black horns on their waists, and Yu Wan also put one on each side of Heng Ha's lanyard.
After getting ready, they went down the mountain and headed straight to the Sea of Ecstasy in front of them.
The Sea of Ecstasy is a combination of plains and mountains. It is filled with white mist all year round and it is difficult to see beyond half a mile.
When a monk enters, if there is no black horn of Qiu Kui to cleanse the fog around him at all times, it is easy for him to inhale too much and fall into an illusion, and eventually be eaten by the monster beasts or spiritual herbs in the fog.
The direction Yu Wan and the two entered happened to be mountainous, and they would enter the plains all the way south.
Because of the fog, they were not too far apart this time, just an arm's length apart, with Humph in between them.
Although it is said to be a mountainous area, it is actually only slightly higher than the hills in Leqiu, and is not so vertically difficult to climb.
Yu Wan led the way, and Li Nian was alert to the rear. Following the map's guidance, they first went to the east hillside where the nearest red blood fruit was located.
It was quiet along the way, and they suppressed their breathing and footsteps to the quietest level.
After staying in this small, silent white space for a long time, when the two gradually got used to it and even became numb, a red blood vine suddenly stretched out from their left side and struck straight towards Heng Ha in the middle.
Unfortunately, Haha, who was the first to notice the movement, had already informed Yu Wan in the Consciousness Sea. She turned over and jumped up. When she raised the knife in her hand, the vines that were stretched out had been cut off by the Huang Dao.
Blood was flowing from the fracture, and Yu Wan held it in his hand, unable to retract it.
Perhaps sensing the plight of this vine, in the next breath, dense red-blooded vines appeared around them, attacking the two men and one beast in an encircling manner.
Yu Wan and Li Nian stood with their backs facing each other, took out their respective magic weapons and attacked. Hengha has no fighting power yet. It hides behind the two of them, reminding Yu Wan of the abnormality.
The swords and shadows became denser and denser, but there were still vines that successfully broke through and attacked the two people and the beast.
Unfortunately, as soon as they reached about half the wall around the two of them, these vines instantly turned into fly ash and merged into the diffuse fog.
This is the empty flame protective shield set up by Yu Wan. It is invisible and colorless, and is suppressed by the high temperature emitted by Yu Wan. It can tempt those vines to attack without warning.
Although this kind of red blood vine is not afraid of water and fire, it is still somewhat lethal to strange fires like Kong Yan.
When Hengha confirmed the main direction, Yu Wan's left hand, wrapped in empty flames, immediately threw a fireball in that direction.
The blazing heat of the colorless fireball distorted the surrounding air, and it pounced directly into the mist. After a while, no new vines came.
The two looked at each other, nodded, and ran towards that place.
About a moment later, a forest of red vines appeared in front of their eyes.
Within the sight of the white mist, the red blood vines in front of their heads twisted together and climbed back and forth according to the shape of the mountain cliff in the mist, forming a scene similar to the top of a grapevine.
The closely spaced vines hang down with round, red fruits, some of which are orange in color. Before they are ripe, some are as bright as drops of blood and are on the verge of collapse.
Both of them were shocked. They didn't expect to encounter a red blood fruit forest. They looked at each other and nodded. They each flew in from one side, took out the jade box and picked the ripe fruits.
Both of them are covered with a layer of spiritual energy protection to prevent abnormal movements in the vine forest.
Unexpectedly, Yu Wan's empty flames posed a fatal threat to them. They picked all the way without any vines attacking them.
When they reached the end of the vine forest, they both saw a cliff not far ahead. At the edge of the cliff, there was a lone vine clinging to the towering rocks on both sides, with red fruits in the shape of blood drops hanging from the air.
The vine forest here became less foggy the further in, and by the time they reached the edge of the cliff, their consciousness could already cover the surrounding 5 miles.
"Look here." Yu Wan noticed the charred vine on the rock not far to her left.
Li Nian followed her over there and found that the charred vines had spread to the top of the rock. If it continued to extend, the thick vine hanging in the air would soon be burned.
"Such a thick vine must be at least a hundred years old." Li Nian sighed.
"It should be more than that. This seems to be the vine king here..." Yu Wan observed for a moment and then spoke uncertainly. "Look, it's shaking."
Following the direction of Yu Wan's finger, Li Nian looked over intently.
Sure enough, the tightly clinging thick vines actually trembled slightly. He then raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Wan.
"Wait a minute." After Yu Wan finished speaking, he put his hands on his chest, fingers flying, and kept chanting.
After two breaths, she covered the end of the vine with her right hand.
Soon, Li Nian saw that the scorched blackness above his head that had spread towards the other end was slowly retracting, and the retreated parts were all a withered yellow color.
After a long while, Yu Wan took back his right hand and swallowed a spiritual pill to replenish his spiritual power.
At this time, the places where the vines were covered with scorch were all withered and yellow, and there were no traces of scorch.
After a moment of recovery, Yu Wan cut off about 3 inches from the end of the vine with a knife, and then said, "Let's leave after taking the red blood fruit. It will take a long time for it to recover..."
Li Nian nodded, and they each took out the jade boxes and harvested the century-old red blood fruits.
In the end, the two of them got 50-50, and each got 12 blood-drop-shaped bright red fruits.
After sealing it with the spiritual talisman, the two of them identified the direction and continued to move towards the south.
For the next month, they kept walking around, collecting spiritual herbs and spiritual objects, and rushing on the road. Occasionally, they had to deal with spiritual vines and spiritual roots that suddenly rushed out during their night rest.
Finally, one month later, they finally left the foggy area and arrived on the Boshui Plain.
The two of them looked at the thousands-mile-long plum forest in front of them and the river running through it, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that the crystal jade and white plum forest in Boshui Plain is ahead." Li Nian looked ahead and said.
Yu Wan nodded and said, "Let's rest by the small lake ahead tonight." She pointed to an empty place a hundred miles away.
There is a mirror lake there. Although it is not large in area, it suddenly shines with golden light among the continuous white plum trees, making it difficult not to pay attention to that place.
"If I arrive first this time, how about eating snake meat tonight?" Li Nian was already greedy for the taste of the snake meat he hunted when he first entered the secret realm, and he made a bet with Yu Wan.
"What if I go first?" Yu Wan asked him with a smile.
"I'll give you 80% of the snake meat, but I'll only eat 20% of it." Li Nian looked into Yu Wan's eyes and said.
"Deal." The words were still floating in the air, but Yu Wan had disappeared, leaving only the traces of lightning arcs where she stood telling her existence.
"What a greedy cat." Li Nian shook his head and laughed, then looked down at the pink pig and said, "Your master has abandoned you for food, how about following me?"
"Hmm."
"Ha ha."
Heng Ha shouted at him twice at the same time and ran away in an instant.
They are not stupid. Wanwan arrives first, and they can eat more snake meat...
Li Nian smiled helplessly and chased after him.
There was less snake meat to eat, so he might as well hunt other monsters.
At this time, the vine forest at the Sea of Ecstasy.
"Brother, this..."
"Alas, someone got there first." Yu Kuang shook his head and sighed. He had been having bad luck since he came in. Everywhere he went, he always looked like someone else was taking advantage of him. He began to doubt his own luck.
Thinking of the Jie Dao monks we met a few times before, and the abundant spiritual grass in their storage bags, it seemed that we could only obtain these resources from the Jie Dao monks first.
With this in mind, he said, "Let's continue walking to the southeast. It's only been two months. Let's go directly to the Dust Cleansing Forest Sea. There are the most spiritual flowers and spiritual fruits in that mission. It shouldn't be like now. One place is empty and the other is empty..."
"Yes." Several disciples behind him replied, including Yang Mei.
By the lake, two people and one beast in the formation were eating seriously.
Li Nian originally wanted to catch some monsters on the way here, but he didn't expect to encounter any monsters. He had no choice but to go to the lake and set his sights on the monsters in the lake.
After a lot of effort, he caught four whitebait and piles of orange crabs.
He was still thinking about how to eat this hard-shelled thing. Unexpectedly, the delicious fragrance soon lingered on the tip of his nose, followed by a roaring sound from his belly.
His cheeks were slightly red, and he sat at the table under Yu Wan's teasing eyes.
Grilled snake meat, steamed orange crab, whitebait in white soup.
The aroma of three different kinds of meat hit his nostrils. He couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and tasted a piece of snake meat first.
The roasted snake meat is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, bursting with juice when you bite it. It is paired with red jade pepper powder and sophora powder sprinkled on the skin. It is spicy and rich in taste, so fresh that you want to devour your tongue...
After eating the snake meat, I got another bowl of milky white fish soup. The fish meat was tender and smooth, and the soup was white and sweet, delicious and delicious.
Then he followed Yu Wan's instructions, broke open the crab shell, tasted the crab roe inside, and then tried the crab dipped in ginger and vinegar...
Hmm~ The taste is sandy and soft, the two flavors are different, very wonderful~ very wonderful~
Then he bit open the crab legs and ate the white meat inside. It was juicy and fragrant. It was so delicious without any seasoning. There was also this rich water spirit. How many times in the world can you taste it~
At first, he was still eating with small mouthfuls, but as he went on, Li Nian ate faster. In the end, he directly picked up the rice bowl and took big bites of the snake meat into his mouth.
Yu Wan just raised his eyebrows when he saw this. After all, he had seen people who were holding dishes longer than him lose their manners after eating. It was not surprising to see Li Nian like this again. It was not surprising.
After eating and drinking, Li Nian cleared the table and went to the side to close his eyes and refine.
White reed marsh on the north side of Boshui Lake.
"Senior brother, we have been waiting for more than a month. Are the people from Jiutian Pavilion reliable?"
"Why are you anxious? How long has it been... The later they come, the more things we can get by then. Just stay quiet and be on guard."
"yes."
After the words fell, Boshui Lake entered calmness again.
Only occasionally one or two golden spirit fish jumped up from the water, their tails flapping rapidly in the air, as if they wanted to crush the moonlight into pieces and penetrate it into their bodies.
Over and over again, jumping up and down over and over again.
