Chapter 113 A Gambling Game
"Is there any?" Zhang Fangqiong turned to look at Ge Hongjie.
"No, let's go to the next place." Guo Hongjie looked around the courtyard and shook his head.
Several people followed Ge Hongjie out of the courtyard and jumped into the courtyard next door.
"Is Senior Brother Ge looking for the node of the strange realm?" Chen Fei asked in a low voice as he walked beside Mu Langtao.
"Yes."
Mu Langtao nodded, looked around vigilantly, and whispered: "We are not the first wave of disciples to come to this strange place, so most of the strange things in this strange place have been killed, and only some extremely strong or deeply hidden ones are left."
Mu Langtao saw that Chen Fei listened seriously, licked his lips, and continued: "Those extremely strong strange things are not our target. We came to this strange place mainly to find nodes and destroy them."
"Are there many benefits to destroying nodes?"
Chen Fei asked curiously. Although the contribution value given by the sect is high, for these hopeless Lianzang realms, although there is attraction, it is not to the extent of risking life.
"Of course there are benefits."
Zhang Fangqiong turned her head and glanced at Chen Fei, smiling and said: "The moment the strange realm node is destroyed, a large amount of vitality will surge out, no matter what realm it is, it can be absorbed immediately."
Chen Fei's eyes lit up slightly. It turns out that destroying nodes has such direct benefits.
"This kind of vitality is not only beneficial to cultivation, but also can slowly repair the injuries of the acupoints or mental power. In addition to vitality, if you are lucky, there may be Yuanshi in the nodes." Zhang Fangqiong saw Chen Fei's expression and smiled even more.
"Yes, I am willing to come to the strange realm for these. Fortune is sought in danger. If I don't fight, I guess it will be difficult for me to even break through to the training state in my life." Mu Langtao smiled bitterly.
"Then how to find this node?"
Chen Fei was a little excited when he heard it. This node is a treasure. No wonder they flocked to it one by one when they knew the danger of the strange realm.
"Brother just drank a bottle of Xuanling Liquid, which can sense the subtle flow of vitality in the strange realm. But you have to be very close to feel it, so we need to find it one by one, which is a bit of luck." Mu Langtao explained.
Chen Fei nodded suddenly, and understood most of it in his heart. Then he stopped talking and focused on guarding the surroundings to prevent any weirdness from rushing out.
Ge Hongjie and his four companions wandered around in various courtyards, but they didn't find any nodes. Chen Fei saw all kinds of living facilities in this strange realm that were completely anthropomorphic.
This strange realm completely simulates the city of humans, probably for a special reason.
After one hour, two hours, and three hours, the four found nothing.
In this huge city, the four were like ants. Although they spent a lot of time, the search area was actually very limited.
Because the nodes need to rely on perception, they can't be distinguished with the naked eye, which leads to Ge Hongjie carefully perceiving every courtyard.
The mental consumption is great, and the four people rested several times in a few hours.
"Let me do it later, you take a rest." Zhang Fangqiong looked at Ge Hongjie's pale face and whispered.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble." Ge Hongjie didn't show off, took out the Xuanling Liquid and handed it to Zhang Fangqiong.
A quarter of an hour later, the four set out again, and Zhang Fangqiong took the lead, while Chen Fei and the other two were on guard around. Although no strange creatures were encountered just now, no one dared to take it lightly.
The strange creatures in the strange realm had been cleared once, but the extremely strong strange creatures might not have been discovered. Or if they were discovered, the disciples who discovered them were also dead.
Half an hour later, the four were searching in a small courtyard. Zhang Fangqiong was walking in front, and suddenly stopped, with a surprised look on her face.
"Did you find anything?" Ge Hongjie looked at Zhang Fangqiong's expression and asked excitedly.
"Yes, the fluctuation of the vitality here is different from other places. Let me feel it carefully again."
Zhang Fangqiong nodded and walked step by step in this courtyard. A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Fangqiong stopped next to a well.
"Here!" Zhang Fangqiong stared at the upper right position of the well.
"What should I do next?" Chen Fei asked curiously.
"Just use your internal energy to break the node."
Ge Hongjie turned his head and glanced at a few people, his eyes stopped on Chen Fei, and said: "Breaking the node will cause vitality to surge, but that is the treatment for real nodes."
Chen Fei was stunned. What is a real node? Could it be that there are fake nodes in the strange realm?
"There are real and fake ones, and this is the dangerous part of the strange realm. If this node is real, everything will be fine. But if it is fake, the moment it is broken, not only will there be no vitality, but there will also be a shocking impact on the soul. The body refining realm will be injured if it is impacted!" Ge Hongjie said in a deep voice.
These words are mainly said to Chen Fei, because only Chen Fei is a novice, and the other two know the details in this regard.
"Is the impact far away? Can I break the node with a bow and arrow?" Chen Fei asked.
"If the node is fake, the impact distance will not be too far, and the bow and arrow can also break it. However, all this is based on the premise that the node is fake."
Ge Hongjie shook his head with a wry smile and said: "If the node is real, you use a bow and arrow to break it, and when the vitality surges out, you will not get any benefit. The time at that moment is very short. The closer you stand, the stronger the effect."
Chen Fei was startled and turned around.
Because it is impossible to judge whether the node is real or fake, now everyone can only gamble. If you don't want the vitality, you can naturally break it with a bow and arrow from a distance.
But the warriors who come to the strange realm to adventure are rushing for the vitality in the node to nourish the injured acupoints and mental power, so they have to gamble.
Coming to the strange realm is a gamble in itself, and facing the node is the time when this gamble is unveiled. Naturally, they have no reason to retreat.
"If the node is fake, it is not without any benefits. After the mental shock, there will be a weird rushing out. Kill this weird, and there may be a weird bead in the body of the weird. The weird bead can be used to refine medicine and refine weapons, and the effect is very good." Zhang Fangqiong said.
Chen Fei grinned, is this a consolation prize? Why didn't he feel it at all.
The mind was originally shocked, and then a weird ran out immediately. It looks dangerous no matter how you look at it.
"If there is a weird later, it must be killed as soon as possible." Ge Hongjie said seriously.
"Can't it be led away?" Chen Fei was a little confused. If he couldn't beat it, wouldn't it be best to just run away?
"It can't be led away. The strangeness in the strange realm moves faster than the training realm. And when the strangeness just ran out of the fake node, it was actually the weakest. The longer the time drags, the stronger the strangeness will become, and if there is a strange bead, it will be absorbed by the strangeness itself at that time." Mu Langtao said.
"The strange bead is actually condensed because the strangeness has been suppressed by the node for too long." Zhang Fangqiong explained when she saw Chen Fei's confusion.
Chen Fei nodded suddenly. Now he understood. This gamble seemed to have become a must-gamble.
"Junior Brother Chen, you should stand far away first. Your cultivation is not enough, and it's the first time to break the node. I'm worried that you are not mentally prepared." Ge Hongjie thought for a while and looked at Chen Fei.
It's not that he is afraid that Chen Fei will absorb the vitality. If the real node is broken, there will be a lot of vitality inside, which is more than enough for four people to absorb. Ge Hongjie was really worried that Chen Fei's cultivation was poor and he would be seriously injured and in danger of his life.
Having promised Guo Linshan, Ge Hongjie had to fulfill his promise.
"Okay!"
Chen Fei thought about it and retreated more than ten meters from his heart.
Seeing Ge Hongjie nod, Chen Fei stopped and looked forward, ready to attack at any time.
"Let's start."
Ge Hongjie looked at Zhang Fangqiong, who nodded, holding the long sword and walking to the node step by step, taking a deep breath, and then stabbing with a sword.
Chen Fei watched the long sword in Zhang Fangqiong's hand disappear halfway, and before he could sigh at the wonder of this node, a sudden fear suddenly imposed on his heart, as if a disaster was about to happen, making people want to kneel down with their heads in their hands and beg for mercy.
The Jingyuan Jue was running wildly, freeing Chen Fei from this panic.
In this short moment, Chen Fei saw Mu Langtao being hit by a shock and flying backwards. Ge Hongjie and Zhang Fangqiong were bleeding from the corners of their mouths and their faces were extremely pale, but they rushed forward frantically and hit a phantom that suddenly appeared.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Chen Fei did not hesitate at all, and began to shoot arrows from the longbow in his hand, piercing the phantom fiercely.
Because the main opponent this time was weird, Chen Fei's arrows were also replaced with special arrowheads.
It was expensive, but it was very effective against weird.
Because the place where the phantom was pierced by the arrow at this moment was like being splashed with concentrated sulfuric acid, and it just dissolved. A silent roar resounded in the hearts of several people. Ge Honglin and the others paused slightly, but Chen Fei's arrows did not stop for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, the ghost had been pierced by no less than ten arrows, and the whole figure was driven back by the force of the arrows. However, the sharp roar could not do anything to Chen Fei.
Mu Langtao turned over and saw this scene, his eyes widened. The ghost was suppressed by Chen Fei alone and could not move, and could only bear the attack one-sidedly.
"Good!"
Ge Hongjie roared, and came to the ghost in a flash, waving the long sword in his hand, and the ghost's head was lifted with one sword.
Chen Fei looked up, looked at the ghost head, and shot three arrows in a row, blowing up the ghost head in mid-air. Zhang Fangqiong stepped forward, and together with Ge Hongjie, the ghost's body was chopped into pieces with random swords.
As the green smoke floated up, the ghost disappeared directly.
Mu Langtao had just arrived with a sword in hand, and before he could finish off the enemy with his sword, he put the sword away awkwardly.
"There's a strange bead!"
Ge Hongjie laughed out loud as he saw a bead appear where the strange shadow disappeared.
