The disciple of the Shengye Sect, who had survived the disaster, collapsed on the ground, gasping for air, and was filled with fear when he suddenly heard a clear voice.
"The danger has been eliminated. Now that the jade slip has been crushed, return to the flying boat immediately. Don't linger in the forest longer."
"Ah, yes, disciple knows. Thank you senior for saving your life." The disciple of Shengye Sect came back to his senses and quickly bowed to where there was no one.
Although he did not receive a response, he did not dare to stay any longer, so he hurriedly left the place. A purple-black vine behind him slowly squirmed, and soon sucked the giant python into a mummy.
In mid-air, Yuan Ming drove the jade shuttle and sent a soul crow to follow the disciple, shaking his head with some emotion.
In the past three days, he has rescued seven Shengye Sect disciples. Many of them were like the person just now, who were stunned by the rare elixir and thus ignored the dangers around them.
These disciples of the Shengye Sect were all admitted to the sect after passing the sect test and the spiritual root test. Since they entered the immortal path, they have been cared for by their masters and elders. They have only heard about the dangers of the immortal world and have no real experience. .
Since the sect is good at alchemy and has abundant resources, these disciples have no shortage of skills, magic weapons, and elixirs, but they only lack actual combat experience. Both his fighting ability and crisis awareness are very poor. No wonder there are rumors that the Shengye Sect is not good at fighting.
For these disciples of the Shengye Sect, trials are like outings. They look for herbs during the day, call the elders whenever they encounter danger, and camp together in groups at night, chatting, laughing, and being close to each other.
Looking at these Qi Refining Stage disciples, Yuan Ming was filled with emotion and a little bit envious at the same time. When he entered the path of immortality, he started out as a beast slave, fighting for his life every day in the mountains and mountains of southern Xinjiang. How could he be so happy?
Just as he was thinking about it, Yuan Ming quickly took out the magic weapon used to locate the jade slip.
At this time, the magic weapon was shining with an extremely dazzling red light. Yuan Ming immediately cast a spell to activate it. After learning the direction of the rescue signal, he took up the jade shuttle again and rushed there.
In a valley.
Accompanied by the wailing of wolves one after another, dozens of blue-black demonic wolves surrounded many Shengye Sect disciples, constantly looking for opportunities to attack.
This place actually gathered most of the disciples who participated in the trial. Their strength was not weak, and their cultivation was generally above the fifth level of Qi Refining. Facing the siege of the demon wolf, they cooperated with each other, and they were evenly matched.
Although those demon wolves were only at the intermediate level, they cooperated with each other extremely well. Whenever one demon wolf was seriously injured and was repulsed by the disciples of Shengye Sect, another one would immediately come up to fill in.
Everyone's mana was gradually consumed, but the number of demon wolves never decreased. But that's not what worries them the most.
Not far away, a second-level demon wolf that was as tall as a person had a faint light in its eyes, its tail behind it swung out of thin air, and two cyan wind blades suddenly flew out and slashed at He Wendao in front of it.
Seeing this, He Wendao quickly made a gesture, and the ground beneath his feet immediately shook, and an earth wall instantly rose up in front of him.
The hastily formed earth wall was extremely fragile. Although it blocked the wind blade, it turned into pieces and fell in the next moment.
In the midst of the flying dust, a green and black wolf shadow emerged from the scattered fragments and headed straight for He Wendao.
He Wendao's face was pale, and there were seven or eight first-level demon wolf corpses lying beside him. It seemed that a lot of his mana had been consumed, but he did not dare to relax in the face of the crisis. He turned his right hand and a talisman was knocked to the ground.
More than a dozen sharp soil pierced the ground and came out. The monster wolf that was running quickly dodged, but the skin was still scratched by the soil thorns, and blood flowed everywhere.
But this also made the demon wolf even more ferocious. I saw it stopped its forward momentum, grabbed the ground hard with its front feet, bent its back, lowered its head slightly and then raised it suddenly, its mouth opened with blood, and a piercing wolf howl sounded in an instant. It resounded throughout the valley.
As the sound waves oscillated, the soil thorns that emerged from the ground shattered one after another, and He Wendao's eyes darkened and he staggered.
The demon wolf's eyes flashed with joy, and he kicked the ground with all four legs, leaping high into the air, and rushed towards He Wendao.
At this moment, a humanoid vine descended from the sky, and a dozen purple-black vines quickly stretched out from the sky, intertwining with each other to form a large net, blocking the demon wolf.
Yuan Ming drove the shuttle and arrived in time. When Huazhi stopped the demon wolf, he also jumped off the shuttle.
"Are you okay?" Yuan Ming asked concerned.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Ha Gong, for your help." He Wendao shook his head and clasped his fists towards Yuan Ming.
"It's okay. Elder Lu and the others are here, so this place should be okay." Yuan Ming said. While he was talking to He Wendao, two more streams of light flew from the sky.
Yuan Ming looked up and saw Bai Ye and Lu Shen rushing over, so he just asked Huazhi to use his strength, but did not sacrifice the magic weapon or attack with all his strength.
The demon wolf was no match for Huazhi. At this time, two more foundation-building monks joined the battle. They were quickly defeated and died after being chopped off by Huazhi.
"Why is Fellow Daoist He so embarrassed?" Lu Shen jumped off the flying magic weapon and looked at He Wendao with a frown.
"When I arrived, I only saw the disciples of your sect being surrounded by wolves. I just took action to deal with a few of them. I didn't expect that there was a second-level demon wolf lurking in the dark. I was careless and got a little injured. I'm ashamed." He Wendao smiled bitterly.
At this time, Bai Ye also helped the Shengye Sect disciples on the other side to deal with the remaining first-level demon wolves and brought them all over.
"How did you guys break in here?" Lu Shen asked. "Reporting to the elder, yesterday the disciple accidentally discovered an injured demon wolf. While chasing it, he accidentally entered this place. He found several Fengxuan flowers deep in the valley. Since there were many demon wolves waiting outside at that time, the disciple secretly retreated. Then he summoned other brothers and wanted to deal with the demon wolves together, but for some reason the number of demon wolves today was twice as many as what the disciples had seen." Xu Tian stood up and explained to Lu Shen with a bitter look on his face. road.
"Feng Xuanhua? This is a high-level spiritual grass that is rare to see in hundreds of years. There are more than one. Are you sure you read it correctly?" Lu Shen asked in surprise.
"This disciple is absolutely telling no lies." Xu Tian assured.
Lu Shen Shen thought for a moment, then asked Xu Tian to lead the way to the place where Fengxuan flowers grow, and the other disciples followed behind.
The group of people went deep into the valley, and soon, in the center of a depression deep in the valley, seven or eight small flowers emitting a faint silver light came into view.
Lu Shen looked happy and walked quickly towards the elixir. He Wendao and Bai Ye also followed closely and walked to the elixirs. The former's eyes widened slightly and he looked at them in wonder.
As for Xu Tian and other disciples, they stayed outside the depression and did not dare to step forward without Lu Shen's instructions.
"Fellow Daoist Hagong, why don't you come and take a look? This is a rare spiritual grass, Fengxuanhua, that has been rare in hundreds of years." He Wendao turned to look at Yuan Ming, who was standing not far away, and asked.
"Hagong, come and see the Fengxuanhua. You are lucky this time. This is the main ingredient for making the Foundation Establishment Pill. I never expected to see it here." At this time, Bai Ye said.
Yuan Ming walked over curiously, and when he was still two or three feet away from the Fengxuan flower, he discovered the abnormality of the Fengxuan flower with the power of his soul cultivation, which was stronger than others.
The spiritual power fluctuations of this Fengxuan flower are not emitted from the plant, but from the ground below it, and fluctuate with obvious and stable rules. Is there something different about the rhizome of this flower? Especially strong?
"Who was the first to discover the Fengxuan Flower? You will be rewarded heavily this time when you return to the sect. The main material of the Foundation Establishment Pill is becoming increasingly scarce. While Lu Shen was speaking, his hand had already reached out to one of the elixirs. .
At this time, Yuan Ming suddenly felt a faint sound of wind beside him. From the corner of his eye, he caught sight of He Wendao, who had fallen behind him. His figure had turned into a scar and quickly left behind.
"It's a scam!" Yuan Ming immediately shouted.
While shouting the reminder, his figure also quickly retreated, and at the same time, he immediately summoned flower branches to come to meet him.
However, it was too late after all.
The moment Elder Lu Shen grabbed the Fengxuan flower with a look of surprise on his face, the spiritual grass immediately turned into little bits of fly ash and disappeared, and the other spiritual grasses on the ground also disappeared at the same time.
At the same time, the ground shook slightly, and streaks of cyan lightning emerged from the ground, turning into a thunder and lightning array with a radius of more than ten feet and surrounding the three of them.
Although Yuan Ming's reaction was extremely fast, he still failed to escape from the circle. When he crossed out, he was intercepted by a rising power grid. Before he could get close, he was hit by a flashing green lightning whip lock. .
There was a "crack" sound.
In a hurry, Yuan Ming could only use his snake scale soft armor to resist.
After a ball of electric sparks flashed, Yuan Ming's body was beaten and fell back. The clothes on his chest were charred and broken, and the snake scale soft armor underneath was immediately exposed.
Looking at Yuan Ming and others who were trapped by the thunder and lightning array in the center of the depression, some Shengye Sect disciples who were originally standing outside were so frightened that their faces turned pale. Many disciples rolled and crawled towards the outside of the valley. Only Xu Tian, Luo Xing'er and a few other disciples stayed, but some were panicked and some were sitting on the ground.
Xu Tian looked nervously at the magic circle in the depression, holding Luo Xing'er tightly with one hand, feeling equally at a loss.
"What's going on?" Bai Ye glanced around and shouted in surprise when he saw that He Wendao was nowhere to be found.
"It was calculated. This fengxuanhua is a bait made by illusion. The previous monster was also used to lure us into concentration. There is something wrong with He Wendao. We were ambushed." Yuan Ming got up and said quickly.
"Does a mere magic circle want to trap me?" Elder Lu Shen said, making a hand gesture with one hand and slamming the other hand towards the ground. A circle of khaki halo lit up in his palm, It expands in all directions like water patterns.
As the halo continued to expand, the entire ground began to shake violently, as if a huge force spread from the ground to directly destroy the cornerstone of the magic circle buried deep underground. As the yellow halo continued to spread, it reached the magic circle. At the border of the formation, another huge earthquake occurred on the ground.
