"These spiritual stones are only a small part of your reward."
"Brothers who want to join the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group and make a fortune with us can come and get it now."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the monks ran over like crazy and fell into the piles of high-grade spiritual stones like dogs chewing mud.
Not far away, Xue Zhongjing and others looked at this scene, and their breathing became rapid.
Jiang Hailiu stared and was about to rush forward, but was grabbed by his brother.
"etc."
"What are you waiting for!"
Jiang Hailiu looked anxious, watching the spirit stones being taken away bit by bit, he wished he could fly there now!
There are so many high-grade spiritual stones, even if he just picks up a piece, he can eat and drink in the mortal world for several years!
Jiang Liuhai didn't explain too much, gritted his teeth and suppressed the throbbing in his heart, forcing himself not to stare at the pile of spiritual stones, but turned to look at Xue Zhongjing.
It is already known to everyone that Xue Zhongjing and Huang Quan do not deal with each other.
No matter how many spirit stones you give, you still have to have a life flower.
"Go ahead, there is no other way out."
As if feeling the fiery gazes of the people behind him, Xue Zhongjing took a deep breath, stared at Huang Quan from the air, and then sighed helplessly.
When Jiang Hailiu heard this, he was the first to rush out with a fierce expression to fight for the spiritual stones that had fallen between the cliffs, and so did the rest of the people.
Only Ji Ning and Zhen Xixi stayed with Qi Lan and made no other moves.
"You come over too, don't let it go in vain." Ji Ning helped Qi Lan into the tent, turned to Zhen Xixi behind him and said.
At this moment, Zhen Xixi, whose tender eyes were already red and swollen from crying, silently stayed by Qi Lan's side, shook her head, and said aggrievedly:
"I'm not going anywhere."
"You're such a heartless man. You sneaked out without telling me. You want to leave me and run away. There's no way!"
Zhen Xixi buried her head under Qi Lan's arm with a cry, as if she was deeply in love.
Ji Ning's eyes widened and he was a little dumbfounded.
From the looks of it, these two are Taoist couples, so why have they never been mentioned by others?
"Keep her away, this woman loves to take advantage of others."
Qi Lan opened his eyes tiredly, looked at Ji Ning weakly and helplessly and said.
Zhen Xixi fell in love with him and entangled him again and again, but he really didn't like the latter.
What he likes is the kind of gentle, well-educated, and sensible girl next door, not a hot-bodied beauty like Zhen Xixi.
What's more, he also has a fiancée.
Although the fiancée came to ask for an end of the engagement as his family declined and fell apart, she was rejected by him.
It has nothing to do with pride or anything.
Simply because he really likes her.
"My fiancée is practicing in the Guangyun Immortal Sect. Although she once said that she would never be a true Taoist partner with me in this life, that is her business and I still like her."
"Zhen Xixi, you are a very good woman, but I am not lucky enough to accept you. From now on, please don't waste your time on me."
Qi Lan held on to his weakness and spoke slowly in a hoarse voice.
He could clearly feel that when he said these words, Zhen Xixi, who was buried under his arm, was shaking slightly, and big tears flowed out.
Zhen Xixi tried her best to hold back and not cry out, but she was so heartbroken that she couldn't restrain herself at all and burst into tears on the spot.
"ah--!"
"You heartless man, your fiancée doesn't want you anymore, but you still miss her. I'm not that bad either. You like her. Can she have the same figure as me? Are you willing to sleep with you, Qi Lan!"
Zhen Xixi stood up crying with runny nose and tears, and was about to tear her clothes and throw herself at him.
Ji Ning on the side quickly held her down and pushed her out of the tent.
"Leng Leng Leng... calm down, he is injured now!"
Ji Ning stumbled and pulled Zhen Xixi's shoulders, her face turned pale, and she turned her head to the side, not looking at the beautiful scene.
Zhen Xixi was struggling hard and crying at the same time. When she finally saw that she couldn't get away, she seemed to have accepted the fact that Qi Lan didn't like him. She immediately fell to the ground with her legs weak, crying.
Xue Zhongjing walked over with a serious look on his face. Seeing Zhen Xixi like this, he could guess what happened, but he could only helplessly frown his eyebrows, looked up at Ji Ning and asked:
"How is he doing?"
"It's lighter than expected, but it's hard to say."
Ji Ning wiped the sweat from his head with a solemn expression.
Qi Lan's spiritual energy was exhausted, he was beaten until he vomited blood, and almost fainted. He was worried that he would not be able to hold on and die.
But now, after learning that the other party only had exhausted his spiritual energy and had some serious injuries on his abdomen, he felt much more relieved.
However, this kind of injury is not optimistic, because there are dangers everywhere in this beautiful mountain nowadays. If Qi Lan is in this state, if he encounters a beast tide or other dangers, he will be no different from death.
Xue Zhong nodded, looked around, calmly walked past Ji Ning, and quietly handed him two pills.
"This is a third-grade rejuvenation pill. Feed it to him. There is also one pill for you, just in case you need it."
When Ji Ning heard this, he looked at the elixir in his hand and was slightly startled.
Xue Zhongjing gave them the third-grade elixir as promised, and two pills at that?
The price of this thing is just a few pieces of high-grade spiritual stones, so I’m afraid it’s impossible to buy it!
"In a few days, after entering that land of opportunity, there will definitely be many dangers. I know that person in Huangquan, and he will definitely not give up."
"At this critical moment, I need you to adjust to your best condition without making any mistakes."
Hearing this, Ji Ning nodded slowly and put away the elixir without saying anything more.
These people just huddle together to keep warm.
This trip is bound to be difficult, but Xue Zhongjing is still very strong. If the former trusts them so much, he will not disappoint him.
"Don't worry, captain, we won't run around this time."
Ji Ning smiled slightly, then suddenly remembered something and asked:
"By the way, where is that land of opportunity? It can't be deep in the Xiushan Mountains."
Xue Zhongjing shook his head:
"It's also peripheral."
As he spoke, the man took out an old kraft paper roll map with a solemn expression.
"On this map, only some of the more famous places in Xiushan as a whole are marked."
"This is the core area, the real forbidden area. The Thunder Blade Narrows, Longtan Peak, and Blackwater River are filled with man-eating white mist all day long. I don't know how many powerful people have been killed."
"And what Huang Quan said is the place of opportunity that all the major forces are fighting for now. Although it is only located in the middle area, far away from the inner circle and the core, according to my speculation, the matter is not that simple. .”
As he spoke, Xue Zhongjing pointed out a location on the map with a solemn expression.
"Look, there is a mountain range here, which looks like a swimming dragon. It stretches for nearly a hundred miles, spanning the entire middle area and pointing straight to the core!"
"We discovered that underground palace first because the outer door was very huge and the internal space when we first entered was even more luxurious. That's why we were sure that there must be incredible treasures inside."
"Later, after the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group occupied it, news came out that the part we had just started exploring, the part of the space that shocked us all with excitement, was only the tip of the iceberg of the underground palace. , we were kicked out without even seeing the gate to the real land of opportunity.”
"Now, all the monks in Xiushan have been exploring the underground palace for several days, but they haven't finished exploring yet. It is said that they have gone more than thirty miles deep inside, and there is still no end in sight! "
"So I suspect that this mountain range that stretches for hundreds of miles and spans the entire central region is the complete picture of the land of opportunity!"
After saying this guess, Xue Zhongjing couldn't help but feel his breathing become rapid and his heart was excited.
Traveling all over the country for so many years, I have had countless opportunities and seen many mausoleums that can be called majestic in scale, but in front of this underground palace this time, everything before is nothing.
This is the opportunity that can really make him soar into the sky.
If you can grasp it, perhaps it is not impossible to become a giant in the spiritual world from now on!
At the same time, Ji Ning on the other side looked at the direction Xue Zhongjing pointed on the map, and his expression became dull.
Isn't the shape of this place exactly the map about the Futian Sect's inheritance found under Shen Yu's futon?
Although these landforms had experienced countless years of changes in wind, frost, rain, and snow, Ji Ning could still recognize it at a glance. It was the inheritance place of Futian Sect.
It contains not only the thaumaturgy that the other party has tried so hard to hide, but also countless Sui Yin Pearls!
"It takes no effort at all!"
Ji Ning smiled slightly.
He was still worried about how to find the inheritance place of Futian Sect. After all, that place was specially hidden by Master Shen Yu. So many powerful people could not find it back then, even if he only had the internal passage map. no good.
But now, there is no need to worry about anything. He only needs to follow the team into the underground palace, and he will be like a fish and dragon entering the sea!
"As for the specifics, we have to be careful and think about it in the long term, so as not to be targeted."
In the blink of an eye, the excitement in Ji Ning's eyes disappeared.
After the spiritual stones were distributed, the crowd returned one after another.
Jiang Hailiu's face was glowing red, and his mouth was grinning crookedly. One look at it showed that he had gained a lot.
"Captain, this is your share. The Third Leader specially asked me to give it to you!"
"He also said that because this situation is urgent, everyone must prepare now and set off early tomorrow morning!"
"If there are those who are seriously injured and unable to move, they can stay here temporarily, but they cannot stay here for more than three days at the latest, because by then everyone in the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group will have to evacuate, and they will all have to enter the underground palace. This place will be abandoned.”
"So anxious?"
Xue Zhongjing raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the chance dispute in the underground palace had reached a fever pitch. All parties were investing their hands, so even though most of them were injured, they couldn't care less.
"Captain, look, when will we leave?"
Jiang Hailiu rubbed his hands and came up to ask expectantly.
Just now, he asked the injured members of the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group. Those people had actually walked into that place of opportunity and participated in the battle. They all said that there were treasures everywhere, and danger and opportunity coexisted.
After such a long time, the mining of the underground palace has reached the most important stage. A real big opportunity may appear at any time. He still can't wait to fly there now, not wanting to miss the slightest chance!
Not only Jiang Hailiu was like this, Jiang Liuhai, who had always been more steady, also looked at Xue Zhongjing expectantly.
Now that they've come this far, they can't lag behind others, otherwise when all the opportunities are gone, they won't even be able to drink a sip of broth!
"It's better not to go in batches. Let's go together, otherwise I'm afraid it won't be safe."
Xue Zhongjing rubbed his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and then gave the order directly:
"Now everyone, go back and pack your things. We will go directly with the large group tomorrow."
"If you're injured, just take it easy. When you get to a big place, you can lean back and stop fighting. It's better than staying here."
"That Huang Quan is not a good person."
"Okay!" Jiang Hailiu's face glowed red, and he ran back to his tent in surprise and started packing his things, as did the others.
Ji Ning was inside the camp and heard the conversation outside. At that time, he had just fed Qi Lan the Resurrection Pill and informed him of the current situation.
Qi Lan opened his eyes, a trace of rosy color appeared on his pale face, and sighed:
"If that underground palace really traverses the entire middle area, then our trip would be the same as committing suicide."
"What's more, I'm still injured now. No matter how effective this rejuvenating elixir is, I won't be able to recover by tomorrow. At best, I can only regain my ability to move. Wouldn't it be a suicide to go to such a dangerous place?"
When Ji Ning heard this, he smiled lightly.
"Don't worry, trust me."
"When the time comes, just stay with me to keep you safe."
When Qi Lan heard this, he gave Ji Ning a weak look:
I admit that you have some strength. If it weren't for you today, I would have died by that man's sword. But do you know where the core area of Xiushan is? My ancestors of the Qi family followed him during the most powerful period. Saint-level beings have stepped into it and competed with holy places from all over for opportunities. "
"At that time, my Taizu just glanced at the core area from a distance and inhaled a trace of white mist in it. He almost couldn't get out."
"That's the real restricted area. The place we are in now is just a larger forest at best."
Hearing this, Ji Ning nodded slightly.
He has lived in Xiushan since he was a child, so he knows the situation here very well. Qi Lan is right. Although this large Xiushan is dangerous and inaccessible, it can be called a restricted area, only the deepest part of it.
The Futian Sect's inheritance underground palace actually spans the entire middle area, approaching the core restricted area of Xiushan.
Even if he has an internal map and can get the inheritance, can he easily come out alive?
Ji Ning's expression was solemn, he took a deep breath and said nothing more.
Qi Lan also looked weak and said helplessly:
"Now that the matter has come to this, we can only leave it to fate."
"Hey, you have to keep an eye on me tomorrow."
"Do not worry."
Ji Ning patted Qi Lan on the shoulder.
Without saying too many words, Ji Ning took care of Qi Lan again and then returned to his tent. He used the saint's body to gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to meditate quietly and recover from his injuries.
This night, the rest of the people did not live peacefully.
All over the mountain, everyone was holding their breath.
Until the next day, when it was just dawn.
The familiar voice of Huang Quan sounded in the valley.
"Wake up!"
"Everyone, after a stick of incense, let's go!"
