"Thank you Daoyou Long for your kindness. It's just that after all, you and I have lived a simple life, so it's better to go our separate ways." Yuan Ming shook his head and declined politely.
Although these two people are not human, they are not in the habit of acting with strangers.
"It's not like you and I are strangers. I've heard of Brother Yuan Ming's name a long time ago." Long Chong said with an indifferent grin.
"Who is it?" Yuan Ming was stunned, but there was no sign of anything strange on his face.
"Yuan Ming?" "Fellow Daoist Yuan's temperament is exactly what Brother Tianming said. He is watertight and calm as a mountain." Long Chong and Yu Yun looked at each other and smiled.
Yuan Ming didn't expect to see Liu Tianming's name, and his face remained calm.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan does not need to be so vigilant. Qiongyun and I have received great kindness from Brother Tianming many years ago. We received a message from him more than a year ago, saying that Friend Daoist Yuan came to the East China Sea and asked me to take care of him. Unfortunately, we never had the opportunity to meet. Now in When we meet at the Fairy Fruit Fair, Long will naturally want to show his friendship as a landlord," Long Chong said with a smile.
Yuan Ming suddenly understood. No wonder Long Chong came over to get acquainted with him in front of the Vacuum Palace. But how did these two people recognize him? The blood and bone mask's magic power was so foolproof that even the Nascent Soul Stage monks didn't see through it. How could Chong see through his identity?
"Fellow Daoist Yuan's magical power of transformation is so great that Long can't see through it yet. It's just that you are wearing the Blood Dragon Jade Pendant that I gave to Brother Tianming. This object is from the same origin as Long's natal magic weapon, so I can naturally sense it." Chong seemed to have guessed Yuan Ming's doubts and pointed at the storage ring on his hand, his fingertips glowing with blood.
Yuan Ming was startled and his consciousness disappeared into the storage ring. The jade pendant that Liu Tianming bought for him was lying there quietly, with a faint blood glow at this moment.
"It seems I was too careless." Yuan Ming thought to himself.
When Liu Tianming gave him this jade pendant, he didn't expect it to have any hidden meaning, so he put it away casually.
"To make Fellow Daoist Long laugh, Yuan caused some trouble, so he had to change his appearance. Since we are the same people here, it is fate that we have met, so let's act together" Yuan Ming nodded...
After his identity was recognized, there was no point in deliberately keeping a distance. Long Chong and the two had no ill intentions towards him, and it was not a bad thing to go together.
"Okay, with the addition of Fellow Daoist Yuan, we will be even more powerful this time, and we may not be able to win the first place." Long Chong was overjoyed.
Yuan Ming shook his head: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Fellow Daoist Dragon. The competition will be based on the number of treasures obtained. I'm not good at finding things. There are so many floating continents here. Even if there's one more for me, it would be a lot of trouble to find them."
"Haha, when it comes to this, both of us are the same, but Qiong Yun has other methods. We just need to protect her." Long Chong said with a laugh.
Hearing this, Yuan Ming glanced at Yu Yun curiously and saw her smile slightly. Suddenly she raised her hand, and a black wooden compass flew out of the storage ring and floated in front of the three of them.
"This is a magic weapon specially given by my master for the competition. It can point out the location of the treasure that contains the most spiritual power within a hundred miles. We only need to follow its guidance and we will naturally find the treasure." Qiongyun explained proudly.
After saying that, she immediately cast a spell to activate the compass, and a blue spiritual light erupted from the center of the compass, manifesting a round spoon shadow in mid-air. The shadow turned around and soon pointed to the southeast in the distance. direction.
The three people moved forward according to the guidance, and soon came to the edge of the initial continent. In the void in the southeast, they saw a continent slightly lower than the continent they were on quietly floating in the sky. The area seemed to be much larger. It was difficult to predict. From a distance, it was probably a rather beautiful scenery. The compass in Qiong Yun's hand continued to point to the southeast of the Purple Grass Continent. The three of them looked at each other and then aimed at that continent and flew over it with the Escape Light.
But when they had just left the initial continent, there was a sudden roar in their ears, and a huge suction force came from the void under their feet, making the three of them fall uncontrollably as if they were in a deep sea spiral.
The expressions of the three of them changed greatly. Long Chong suddenly roared, and a layer of blue mana emerged around his body, condensing into a crystal water film on the body surface, resisting the suction force.
Qiong Yun threw out a flying sword magic weapon and stepped on it under her feet. The purple thunder light on the flying sword flashed away, and she immediately supported her body and rushed diagonally, using lift to resist the suction force and stabilize her body. shape.
Yuan Ming's situation was much worse. His cultivation level was only in the early stage of pill formation and was far inferior to Long Chong and Qiong Yun. He couldn't resist the suction force and fell downwards.
"Damn it!" He cursed secretly and hurriedly imitated Qiong Yun's actions. A flash of lightning flashed under his body, and the thunder hammer appeared out of thin air.
Yuan Ming stood on the Thunder Hammer and poured mana into it. The Thunder Hammer shot out several silver thunderbolts, and a powerful power burst out, barely resisting the suction of the bottomless abyss.
"Are you okay?" Long Chong shouted towards this side.
"I can still hold on." Yuan Ming resisted the suction below and flew towards the Purple Grass Continent with all his strength!
Long Chong and Qiong Yun also moved forward with all their strength, but the suction force below was so amazing that the escape speed of the three of them was not even one-tenth of the usual speed.
Not only that, the suction force of the abyss became heavier the further they went forward. Long Chong and Qiong Yun soon showed expressions of exertion, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Yuan Ming's forehead. Fortunately, as they gradually approached the Purple Grass Continent, The suction force gradually weakened and disappeared suddenly when they set foot on the land again. "Huh, we're finally here. This secret realm is really weird. If the distance between the two continents is further, we may not be able to cross it." Long Chong Said somewhat happily.
"It seems that due to the restrictions of the secret realm, we can only move between two nearby continents." Yu Yun also sighed.
Yuan Ming crossed the most difficult path, wiped his forehead, and secretly felt worried.
The distance between the two continents was not very far, so he could still survive it. If the distance was further, it would be hard to tell.
Fortunately, he has the Jinkui Beast Control Technique, which can increase his mana level. If it doesn't work, he can only expose this secret technique.
After thinking about this, Yuan Ming calmed down and looked around, his eyes slightly condensed: "These purple flowers and plants are quite strange. I'm afraid they contain highly toxic substances. Please be careful."
Hearing this, Long Chong and the other two also looked at the flowers and plants around them.
The purple flowers and plants on the continent still feel gorgeous when you look at them from a distance, but when you get closer, you will find the evil hidden in them. The purple grass leaves covering the entire continent like a blanket, whether it is a blade of grass or a flower, the edges are They all have small, sharp teeth, and they look like they have huge mouths waiting for prey to come to them.
Seeing this, Long Chong casually took out a piece of bright red raw meat of unknown type and threw it on a flower. The leaves and flowers of the purple flower suddenly came to life. They all rushed over and bit the raw meat. Several bites were left on the raw meat. There was a hole, and a rotten smell wafted out.
Long Chong cast a spell to pick up the raw meat, only to see that most of the raw meat had been corroded by toxins, and in the pile of black and stinky rotten meat, there were seven or eight purple sharp teeth embedded in it, as if they were growing in the rotten meat. generally.
"It seems that these poisonous weeds and poisonous flowers have developed a kind of intelligence. Not only will they actively attack prey, but they will also release their poisonous teeth to invade the prey's body." Long Chong analyzed.
"This piece of raw meat comes from the second-level peak monster beast that I killed not long ago, the black rock lizard, right? This snake contains highly poisonous, and its flesh and blood is naturally resistant to poison. It was corroded into this state so quickly. It seems that Purple poisonous flowers are very toxic, so it’s best not to touch them,” Yu Yun said.
Yuan Ming nodded silently and asked in the sea of consciousness: "Xiying, can you identify the types of these poisonous weeds?"
"I have never seen this type of poisonous weed. Since the poison is so strong, you can try to collect some. When we leave the secret realm, you can also show it to Yan Sijing and the others. They are good at refining medicine and may be able to research something. "Xi Ying replied!
Yuan Ming had this intention, waved his hand and sent out a cyan light palm to uproot all the nearby dark purple poisonous weeds. After thinking about it, he sent a poisonous weed into the spirit beast bag.
"Huazhi, swallow these poisonous weeds and see what's special about them." Yuan Ming said.
Huazhi quickly responded: "Master, these poisonous weeds taste so weird, and they are only more toxic and have no other abilities."
Yuan Ming was enlightened and saw that Huazhi didn't seem to like these poisonous weeds, so he released them. "A little further away, there are bright purple flowers that are waiting to bloom. The delicate flower bags bulge and shrink, and the pale purple pollen spurts out from the gaps. From a distance, they look like a small fountain.
I don’t know if it was because Yuan Ming pulled out all the leaves of the Youzi grass. The bright purple flower suddenly turned towards the three of them. The flower bag, which was only the size of a baby’s fist, hung down. The petals emitting purple light suddenly opened, revealing dense canines. Spewing out streams of purple poisonous mist towards Yuan Ming and the others.
With the cultivation of Yuan Ming and the others, they would not be injured by such an attack. Long Chong waved his sleeves, and a strong wind rose from the ground, blowing away all the purple poisonous mist.
Qiong Yun's brows moved, and the purple thunder sword appeared instantly. With just a flash, it cut off all the purple flowers.
Perhaps Yuan Ming's actions just now reminded Long Chong and the others, and like Yuan Ming, they also picked some of the remains of the purple flowers and collected them.
And Yuan Ming also sent the purple flower into the spirit beast bag again, and received the evaluation of being unpalatable and worthless from the flower branch!
Then, the three of them took a short rest to recover the spiritual energy consumed during the flight, and then continued to fly in the southeast direction according to the compass.
The Purple Grass Continent is much larger than the previous continent. The three of them have been flying for nearly a thousand miles, but they have not been able to see the edge.
But at this moment, in front of them, another tallest mulberry forest appeared. The trunk of the mulberry tree was still brown, but the mulberry leaf was also dyed with a faint purple color, and the purple color spread all the way. The purple flowers also stopped in front of the mulberry forest. At the foot of the mulberry trees, the soil seemed to have been turned over. Among the piles of broken soil and mud, there were occasionally fragments of purple flowers and plants, as if they had been torn apart by something.
"Does the compass indicate that we should enter this mulberry forest?" Yuan Ming looked ahead, roughly estimated the area of the forest, and turned to ask!
Upon hearing this, Yu Yun activated the magic formula again, and the shadow of the round spoon on the compass turned in a circle, and finally pointed to the southeast.
"It seems we have to go in." Long Chong laughed and rushed into the woods.
At this moment, Yuan Ming, who was behind him, suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of the mulberry tree: "Be careful, there are black beasts hiding in the crown of the tree." As his voice fell, the purple mulberry leaves suddenly trembled greatly. It got up, and then round gray heads popped out.
