Chapter 295 Demon
early morning.
The first ray of sunlight softly falls on the small bamboo peak, the rich spiritual energy lingers, the fragrance of the butterfly spirit evening primrose, and the soft singing of various birds.
Chen Ping got up early in the morning and went to the head mansion.
He told Wei Xun that he would take a trip, and told Wei Xun about Ji Yan's request by the way.
Then, under the watchful eyes of Yun Haitang, he set off from the sword on Xiaozhufeng in a low-key manner.
Lingxiao Sect is located in Xihuang, west of Xizhou, while Yaodu is located in the East China Sea, which is the easternmost side of Xizhou.
There is a middle island area in the middle.
Fortunately, although the entire Xizhou area is very large, it is long and narrow in a north-south direction.
The distance from west to east is not extremely wide.
And the monsters are all located in the southwest of the East Sea Monster Domain.
The distance from Lingxiaozong to the East Sea Demon City is about 500,000 miles.
This distance is definitely not close.
I don't know why Bailiye traveled so far as a monk in the Qi refining period back then.
Not to mention the dangers in each.
This distance alone is definitely beyond the reach of a monk in the Qi refining period.
Chen Ping avoided Xiuxian City and Zongmen, and flew northeast along the forest with the sword. When he rested before dark on the first day, he estimated that he had flown almost 9,000 miles.
It was different from going to Tianyan City back then, when he took Yu Lingchun with him, it was equivalent to walking forward with a heavy load.
After that, I bought a new third-tier magic robe, and the effect of Yufeng is better.
What's more, after reaching the seventh floor of foundation building, he has completed the 'Eighteen Days of Calamity', and his quality indicators in all aspects have been greatly improved.
Even compared to when he came back from Tianyan City, his speed has increased by at least 15%.
Chen Ping also increased the average daily sword time.
Calculated based on this speed and the average daily sword-fighting time, it will take about 55 days to reach the destination.
Of course, Chen Ping was in no hurry.
This trip to Donghai is not only to find alchemy, but also to increase their own knowledge.
Instead of taking the hasty route, take the safer route.
Once encountering unknown risks, he would rather wait for a long time on the ground, or take a long detour to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Before this departure, Chen Ping had already planned a detailed route, which marked the situation of the major spheres of influence. forest flight.
Some big Xiuxian cities are also marked.
Short stays are available for resupply.
Chen Ping proceeded cautiously like this, and after more than ten days, he entered the Zhongdao District.
After swimming in the green ocean for many consecutive days, in the evening of this day, Chen Ping finally arrived at a larger Xiuxian City on the way, and temporarily settled down.
According to the brochure provided by Yun Haitang, this Immortal Cultivation City is famous for its alchemy skills, and the pills are relatively cheap.
After Chen Ping stayed in the inn, he took a short rest and went to Fangshi to find out about the prices of two elixir shops. After some bargaining, he refused to buy it on the grounds that the price was too expensive.
Finally, I found the largest pill shop.
The pills here are much richer than Lingxiaozong's, and many kinds of niche pills can be seen.
For example, pills that make people laugh out loud, pills that make people's skin darken for a short time, etc.
All kinds of exotic medicines.
"Dare to ask the shopkeeper, how to sell Qi Gathering Pill?"
The Qi Gathering Pill I bought last time has been used up to seven or eight times, especially in Tianyan City for more than a year, because of the lack of spiritual energy, I have taken a lot of Qi Gathering Pills.
This is because he basically didn't take Qi Gathering Pills during those few years in Luoyue City, otherwise he would have used up all of them.
A few days ago, when I was planning the travel route, I knew that there happened to be a sect on this road who was good at alchemy, so I didn't replenish Qi Gathering Pills at Ling Xiaozong, but planned to stop by here to have a look.
The shopkeeper looked at Chen Ping and said politely:
"Should Taoist friends buy alone or establish a long-term buying and selling channel?"
Just ask about wholesale, it seems that many monks or caravans come here to buy goods.
Chen Ping didn't say anything dead:
"If the price is right, it's okay to establish a long-term channel. I come from a large sect."
At least the channel can be provided to Yun Haitang.
Whether to cooperate or not is another matter.
The shopkeeper was also an old fried dough stick, but after a while of discussion, seeing what Chen Ping said was true, he finally gave a unit price of 460 low-grade spirit stones for a bottle.
This price is a little cheaper than Lingxiaozong's normal price (a bottle of 5 middle-grade spirit stones), and also slightly cheaper than the previous two stores.
Chen Ping finally spent 1330 middle-grade spirit stones and bought 300 bottles.
And asked the shopkeeper for a list of pills.
Back at the inn, I took a hot bath to wash off the dust, and then had a full meal of delicious food.
The next day, set off again.
The route Chen Ping chose was relatively remote, and he took the southern end of Zhongdao District, where there were few sects, and sometimes he might not be able to see a single person even after flying for seven or eight days.
More than 20 days from the date of departure.
On this day, as night fell, Chen Ping found a cave in the forest, cleaned up and arranged formations, and rested here, and released the Nine Nether Colorful Cicadas as usual.
I never thought that through the Nine Nether Colorful Cicadas, I would find that there is actually a pair of monks living there more than 20 miles away.
Chen Ping restrained his breath and hid in the cave to avoid being noticed by the opponent's consciousness.
At the same time, continue to observe the opponent's every move through the Nine Nether Colorful Cicada.
More than twenty miles away.
Two monks, a man and a woman, stood together. They were very close to each other, but they didn't look at each other. They both raised their heads slightly and stared at a vine wrapped around the trunk of a big tree.
A gorgeous purple flower blooms on the vine.
"Senior brother, it is said that one of the 10,000 Bian Yu Nirvana plants can bloom, and one of the 10,000 Bian Bian Yu Nirvana flowers can bear fruit. Can this Bian Yu Nirvana flower really bear fruit?" The female cultivator gently pulled the male Repair hands.
The male cultivator fondly raised his hand and patted the female cultivator's head, saying:
"From the point of view of form, it may result. But until the last moment, no one will know. Wait and see. Today is the time when the moon is full. Maybe I will see the real chapter tonight."
The nun nodded:
"It's not in vain that we secretly guarded it for three months."
"I can't make progress in refining gods for several years, but God will still take care of us after all."
The male cultivator patted the female cultivator on the back:
"Yes. If it bears fruit, I will give you this elusive Bana Yu Nirvana. This is the only spiritual fruit that strengthens the primordial spirit. After you have succeeded in refining the gods, take this Bana Yu Nirvana. God will be greatly strengthened."
The female cultivator was moved in her heart, and looked at her Taoist companion:
"No, it's up to you, senior brother. Only when you become stronger can I enjoy the blessings."
The male cultivator said affectionately:
"Then we are one and a half, we will become stronger together, and we will form alchemy together."
"Um."
"."
Time is like a breeze, and the full moon is blowing.
It also brought joy.
Under the moonlight, a man and a woman held hands, watching Nirvana on the other side nervously, without panting, with both hearts in their throats.
His palms were even sweating.
Except for the chirping of insects and the occasional humming of monsters, the forest was unusually quiet.
As the bright moonlight poured down, the petals of the other shore Yu Nirvana flower slowly stretched, and then withered one by one.
The chests of the two monks, male and female, rose and fell, their eyes were round, and they were extremely nervous.
One by one, the petals withered, finally revealing a small crack.
In the gap, a pitch-black fruit glowed like a pearl.
The two were overjoyed.
A holding heart finally let go.
"Hahaha, three months, I kept it for three full months, and it really has fruit, hahaha." The male cultivator couldn't help but jump up into the air, wanting to pluck the precious fruit.
This kind of fruit is extremely rare, and it is a rare natural treasure for refining gods in the late stage of foundation establishment.
And refining the gods is a powerful support for forming alchemy.
But with such luck, he suddenly felt in a trance, and he fell directly in the late stage of foundation establishment.
The male cultivator was shocked, and immediately checked his body with his spiritual sense.
He suddenly turned his head and looked at his Taoist companion:
"Stinky bitch, is it you who gave the medicine?"
The female cultivator whose eyes were originally full of affection changed, and sneered:
"Senior brother, this other shore feather nirvana is the key spiritual fruit for me to form alchemy in the future, and it must belong to me. I can't afford to bet on it, junior sister."
"So what? You're going to murder me? I promised you the fruit." The male cultivator shouted angrily, his veins bulging.
Speaking of this, the female cultivator was furious:
"Promise to me? Hehe, who are you lying to? You."
The female cultivator took a step forward excitedly, but with such strength, she suddenly felt a throbbing pain in her heart.
She was terrified, clutching her chest and took two steps back in horror.
The pain is getting stronger and stronger:
"what did you do to me?"
"Hahahahaha." The male cultivator laughed wantonly, with a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth:
"It's Xinxin Pill. I secretly let you take it two months ago. Once this single pill encounters the scent of tulips, it will explode immediately. Hahaha, do you think I'm not on guard against you?"
The female nun showed pain, only to find a tulip petal on the ground.
It hadn't been there before, probably because his senior brother had just seen the result of the other side's Nirvana, and then secretly took it out of the storage bag.
hateful.
"Cough, cough, come, hurry up, give me the detoxification pill, give it to me, and I'll save you. Cough, cough, cough." When the male cultivator was facing death, fear completely occupied his mind, and he crawled towards the female cultivator desperately, with a hasty tone, But it only made him cough more violently.
He didn't dare to practice martial arts, he didn't dare to cast spells, that would only aggravate his death.
"Give it to me first, and I'll give it to you." The nun said heartbreakingly:
"My detoxification pill is in my hand, quick, give it to me quickly."
"Give it to me first, bitch."
"you give me first."
"."
"Hiss~"
When Chen Ping saw this scene in the cave, it was already after midnight. At this time, the male nun and the female cultivator were already dead.
This pair is truly a match made in heaven.
I thought they were a pair of Taoist couples who were in love with each other.
I never thought that emotions would be so fragile in the face of interests.
One calculated the other party a few months in advance, and the other drugged the other party to death.
Chen Ping was filled with emotion.
Why bother?
It's just for a spiritual fruit that strengthens the primordial spirit.
Slowly brushing proficiency can always strengthen it.
Early the next morning.
Chen Ping repeatedly confirmed that the pair of Taoists were indeed dead, and then went to the scene and picked the Nirvana fruit from the other shore.
During the other party's conversation, Chen Ping knew that this fruit was a precious spiritual fruit that strengthens the soul.
The best time to take it is after refining the spirit.
Chen Ping hasn't practiced God yet, so he won't need it for the time being, so keep it for now.
And now he doesn't know how to take it, he doesn't dare to use it indiscriminately, if something goes wrong, it will be troublesome.
In the future, I will find an opportunity to learn about the details of this fruit, and if it is really useful, I will take it myself.
If there are side effects, sell it.
Put the Bian Yu Nie fruit into the spiritual plant bag, and then touched the belongings of the two monks, male and female, and destroyed the corpses.
Hid in a cave to clean up the belongings.
[2 storage bags; 5 top-grade spirit stones, 633 middle-grade spirit stones, and 98 low-grade spirit stones. A bunch of other belongings. 】
The storage bags are 5 squares and 3 squares respectively.
Among the belongings, there are some talismans, pills, some magic robes, and a magic sword.
Including more than 30 bottles of energy gathering pills.
But Chen Ping didn't dare to eat indiscriminately. These two guys are old coins and masters of using poison.
Who knows if it is really Qi Gathering Pill.
But it can be sold.
Chen Ping reckoned that if these properties were sold, they would be worth roughly 100 middle-grade spirit stones.
There are also two bottles of 'Xinxin Pill'.
This is a good thing.
Poison pills are usually not sold and require certain means to obtain them.
To Chen Ping's surprise, neither of them had a corresponding antidote on them.
But in their conversation, they clearly vowed that as long as the other party gave him the detoxification pill, they could immediately exchange their own detoxification pill.
None of the words are believable.
These two people.
Really a couple.
Chen Ping packed up his belongings and continued on his way with Yujian.
Five days later, I stopped at a city of cultivating immortals and bought 5 'spirit lock boxes' for 500 middle-grade spirit stones.
Put the 'Yan Nieguo' into one of the spirit lock boxes.
With the protection of the spirit lock box, the aura and medicinal power of the other shore Yu Nie fruit will not collapse, and it can be stored for several years without any problem.
Continue all the way northeast.
More than forty days after the departure date, Chen Ping entered the Donghai District.
Of course, there was no clear boundary between Nakajima District and Donghai District. Chen Ping estimated it from the map.
A few days later, with the deepening of the Donghai District, it can be seen that there are obvious differences in terrain between the Donghai District, Zhongdao District, and Xihuang District.
Various rivers and trenches run through it.
The number of islands increased significantly.
The forest is more lush, and occasionally I see a Xiuxian City, which is almost built in the forest.
In other words, there are also many big trees in Xiuxian City.
During this period, Chen Ping deliberately stopped in a city of cultivating immortals to learn about the local conditions, and realized that there were both monster races and human monks in the city of cultivating immortals, and everyone lived in harmony.
It was consistent with what was stated in the booklet, which made Chen Ping feel a little relieved.
fiftieth day.
When Chen Ping stayed overnight in a forest at dusk, he suddenly heard cries for help.
Chen Ping was startled suddenly.
Calmly shrank back into the tree hole.
It's getting dark, why are there still people in the forest?
etc.
wrong.
Chen Ping listened attentively.
"Save~life, save~life~, help, help.life."
The voice is sometimes rapid, sometimes long, sometimes near, sometimes far away.
There was something wrong with the cry for help.
Chen Ping shook his head violently. When he came back to his senses, this creepy voice could make people lose their minds.
He immediately tensed his body.
His eyes were fixed on the outside of the tree hole.
A hand stretched gently towards his bosom. The Xie Xie Talisman did not generate any heat.
Chen Ping's scalp was numb.
It's not evil! !
This is not a good sign.
If the opponent is evil, as long as it is not that kind of extremely rare and powerful. I have a large number of evil-killing talismans on my body, and I have enough confidence to protect myself even if I can't kill the opponent.
But it's not evil, is that a person pretending to be a ghost?
Or is it a demon?
'yes. '
'This is the demon realm. '
Chen Ping didn't move. This was the first time he encountered a scene that put him in a deep crisis during his journey.
This sense of crisis is different from that given by monsters, and it is also different from the oppression of high-level monks.
It's a fear of the unknown.
He stayed quietly in the tree hole, his eyes watching every move outside the tree hole, ready to deliver the strongest blow at any time.
As far as he could see, in the forest under nightfall, he seemed to see a pure white fox with its long tail swaying gently.
He even felt that the fox was smiling at him.
But in the blink of an eye, there was nothing.
After waiting for a while, the voice slowly disappeared.
The creepy feeling also disappeared.
'so close. '
'I don't even know what it is. '
Chen Ping no longer stayed in the tree hole. He was not sure if he was discovered by the monster, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.
Because it was already dark, Chen Ping didn't dare to keep driving in the dark, and finally stopped in an open place.
Rest is impossible to rest.
After eating a Qi Gathering Pill, let's get through the night first.
At this moment, for the first time, he questioned 'whether it was the right choice to come out this time'.
Is it rash?
After the reconstruction of the Lingxiao Sect, I became the Peak Master of the Lingxiao Sect. After that, I successfully obtained the help of the Yuanying Zhenjun Fairy Xiyue, and then defeated the invincible Lu Xiangbei with a single sword.
It all went so well.
So that the mentality is more or less inflated.
But in fact, I'm only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment. The world is too big, with too many uncontrollable factors and too many unknown dangers.
Even if you are cautious, everything is decided before you move.
But unpredictable things will still happen.
For example, today's suspected monsters.
'After this time, stay well on Xiaozhufeng, and don't go out of the domain easily. '
Chen Ping was very nervous all night.
Fortunately, nothing happened until dawn.
Early in the morning, Chen Ping left decisively and quickly.
In the following time, Chen Ping was very cautious, even if he stayed overnight, he tried to avoid too dense forests.
Just go and stop.
On the fifty-ninth day, Yaodu appeared in front.
‘Almost two months, finally arrived at the destination. '
