Chapter 167: Thousand-Year Enlightenment Tea, Holy Flame Fruit, No
Chapter 167 Thousand-year Enlightenment Tea, Holy Flame Fruit, No...
A group of people nodded one after another, with a smile on their faces.
Foundation-building spiritual objects are the goal of their trip.
Even if they are just seedlings or seeds, they are particularly precious, and of course they will not be disdainful.
If there is one, there will be two. Now that they have harvested the first seedling of a foundation-building spiritual object, they are already excited.
You know, the most fundamental reason why foundation-building spiritual objects are hard to find in the world of immortal cultivation is that spiritual seeds are scarce and in great demand.
If there are spiritual seeds, if they are carefully cultivated, there is naturally the possibility of harvesting mature foundation-building spiritual objects.
Then soon, this foundation-building spiritual object, the twelve-color flower seedling, was dug out with its roots and carefully sealed in a jade box, sealed with a seal to prevent the leakage of spiritual energy and vitality.
Then, the group continued on their way and searched.
During the period, they would encounter other teams of cultivators from time to time.
It was just that when there was no conflict, both sides maintained restraint and did not have any conflict.
If they knew each other, they would just greet each other and test each other's gains. Of course, they would not tell the truth, but it was normal to find out some information and inform each other of some dangerous situations.
In this way, unknowingly, the sky darkened.
At this time, they just walked to the foot of Jiuchong Mountain.
"In the Divine Wind Valley, except for the outer periphery, there are five areas, namely Jiuchong Mountain, Poison Mist Swamp, Black Dense Forest and Bloodstone Territory.
Each place has rich resources, but also many dangers. There are at least ten foundation-building monsters entrenched in it.
Especially at night, all kinds of monsters will come out and walk around, and the danger is ten times that of daytime.
So, let's rest for a while at the foot of the mountain and take action the next morning."
Shen Xinyi looked at the sky and said very cautiously.
"Aren't there five areas? Why didn't you mention another area?"
Zhang Siyu on the side couldn't help asking.
"There is another one, the Poison Demon Cave. It is rumored that there is a nest of a terrifying existence inside, which awakens every ten years.
The surrounding poisonous fog dissipated because it was absorbing.
So, no one dared to step in, and no one really entered."
Hearing this, the worshiper Xu Shaojie explained with a smile.
He is also an old man in Shuiyun Pavilion. He has participated in more than one hunting in Shenfeng Valley, and naturally knows more.
The others suddenly realized it.
Zhou Changwang's heart also moved slightly.
Then a group of people quickly found an area behind the mountain and directly dug out a small cave.
What surprised Zhou Changwang was that Li Qianyun, the original owner of Fengming Wu Shuiyun Pavilion, was also a formation master, who directly arranged a small protective formation and concealment formation.
For safety reasons, people will also be arranged to keep watch.
Because Zhou Changwang is a spiritual plant master, he was naturally not arranged, and he found a place to sit cross-legged.
Night fell.
The roars of monsters came one after another.
Occasionally, you can hear the screams of many monsters before they die.
In addition to monsters, there are many insect sounds, sometimes they seem to be close at hand, and sometimes they seem to be very far away.
Dong dong dong!
Dong dong dong!
All the cultivators showed a trace of tension on their faces, and their spiritual consciousness swept, but they found nothing.
Zhou Changwang also opened his eyes and silently used the derivative technique.
He did not sense any danger.
The spiritual eye technique swept around, and the surroundings were newly dug out of the earth cave, which was burned by the flames and pressed tightly, and there was no sign of being broken.
As if thinking of something, Zhou Changwang flicked his fingers and silently used the insect repellent technique.
In an instant, the sound paused, and a faint rustling sound came.
"It is indeed a spiritual insect."
Zhou Changwang felt relieved.
Seeing the sound stop, the others also slowly felt relieved.
However, after an incense stick.
Dong, dong, dong...
A series of sounds came again.
"What on earth is this?"
Lu Yun couldn't help but tremble in her voice.
"It should be the sound of some kind of insect.
I just don't know what kind of spiritual insect it is.
In this wild place, especially in the God Wind Valley that is shrouded in poisonous fog all year round, in addition to monsters, there are countless poisonous insects and spiritual insects hidden.
Everyone be careful and sprinkle some insect repellent powder around."
Shen Xinyi said calmly.
Zhou Changwang said, "Don't bother."
After speaking, he pointed forward.
A special spiritual light appeared.
It was the insect-attracting technique!
Under the insect-attracting technique, suddenly, not far ahead, a fist-sized spiritual insect with spots all over its body emerged from the soil.
In addition to that place, there were also spiritual insects attracted everywhere around.
There were more than ten of them.
"So many?"
A group of people suddenly turned pale.
Zhou Changwang then slapped his storage bag, and a huge monster insect that looked like a flying cicada suddenly appeared.
It spread its wings.
It was amazingly fast.
In an instant, it rushed into the group of spirit insects, spread its front legs horizontally, and then swallowed them one by one.
Among them was the spotted spirit insect that kept making a "dong dong dong" sound.
"Is this the king of flying insects, the golden armor king flying cicada?"
Suddenly, someone couldn't help but exclaimed.
Zhou Changwang glanced at the person, it was Xu Ying, one of the worshippers of Shuiyun Pavilion.
To be able to become the guardian worshipper of Shuiyun Pavilion, her strength must be not weak, and her eyesight is also very extraordinary.
"No wonder Brother Zhou wants the Ten Thousand Poison Grass.
The Golden Armor King Flying Cicada feeds on highly toxic substances, and the Ten Thousand Poison Grass can be said to be the most suitable nutrient for its growth."
Then, she continued to speak, with a serious face.
Although the golden armor king flying cicada in front of her was still in its larval stage and only had the strength of the third level of Qi training, it had a fierce reputation and was well-known on the list of strange insects, so she would not underestimate it.
Seeing this, the others also paid more attention to it.
They thought Zhou Changwang was just an ordinary spiritual plant master, but they didn't expect that he could drive spiritual insects, which was beyond their expectations.
Zhou Changwang stretched out his hand and the golden armor king flying cicada flew back quickly, and then he put it into the spiritual insect bag.
"Okay, everyone take a rest."
Seeing this, Shen Xinyi also greeted.
Then he approached Zhou Changwang, used a soundproofing technique, and said, "I didn't know you still had this Golden Armor King Flying Cicada.
If you really want the Ten Thousand Poison Grass, after we return this time..."
"Sister Shen is overthinking.
I won't risk my life.
Although I need the Ten Thousand Poison Grass, I won't take risks for it.
At worst, I can set up some rewards after I return.
I believe someone will find the Ten Thousand Poison Grass for me, so I don't have to do it myself."
Zhou Changwang smiled and comforted.
In his view, the Golden Armor King Flying Cicada is always an external object. Although it should be a good helper when it grows up, he doesn't care.
If it can be successfully cultivated, he will naturally pay attention to it, but he will not let it affect his safety.
He naturally knows what is important.
Hearing this, Shen Xinyi nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
Facing the blue-eyed poisonous flame mang, she was also scared.
Then, there was no conversation all night.
Although the roar of beasts could be heard from time to time in the outside world, it did not affect the people in the cave.
The next morning, everyone woke up and continued to search for treasures.
Perhaps the resources in Jiuchong Mountain are indeed much more than those in the outer areas.
Just a moment later, they found another foundation-building spiritual object.
This time, it was a soul-protecting grass.
It takes 500 years to mature and be used as medicine.
This one is a hundred years old and was found by Fang Zhiqing under a tree root. There is also a first-grade high-level monster guarding it.
A monster, of course, can't stop the siege of a group of cultivators in the late stage of Qi training. It fell in the blink of an eye and turned into spiritual materials and cultivation resources.
As for the monster pill, it was an unexpected surprise.
There are indeed many monsters in Jiuchong Mountain. Unless they encounter a group of monsters or a big monster in foundation building, they will not retreat at all and push forward all the way.
At this moment, there are more than ten demon pills in Shen Xinyi's storage bag, and more are various spiritual materials and spiritual plants.
Although Zhou Changwang has been under the protection of Shen Xinyi and other cultivators, he is also playing a role as a member of the whole team.
From time to time, he uses the derivative technique to sense danger, and uses the spiritual eye technique to explore the surrounding situation and search for possible spiritual beasts.
Suddenly, Zhou Changwang's face changed.
Sensing a dangerous breath coming from the left front direction.
At this time, the captain of the guard team, Zhao Tianheng, brightened his eyes and saw a spiritual plant growing in that area, and was about to rush forward.
Zhou Changwang shouted in a low voice, "Captain Zhao, retreat."
Zhao Tianheng was stunned and didn't understand.
But he still retreated carefully.
Zhou Changwang had given several warnings before, and his choice was proved to be correct afterwards, so although he was confused, he was not reckless.
"Go around.
There's something wrong there."
Zhou Changwang explained, and after scanning the area with his spiritual eye technique, he didn't see anything, but he did find a few spiritual plants in that area.
Among them was a foundation-building spiritual object, the Earth Yin Lingzhi.
Although it was only about 120 years old, the foundation-building spiritual object was extremely precious.
Even seedlings and seeds were very difficult to find.
But out of trust in his derivative technique, he still didn't act rashly.
"I saw a foundation-building spiritual object..."
Zhao Tianheng couldn't help but said excitedly.
"I feel something is wrong. It is very likely that there is a foundation-building monster hiding."
Zhou Changwang said solemnly.
"Listen to Brother Zhou, retreat!"
Shen Xinyi on the side was very decisive.
Although they were a group of people with a large number of people, and most of them were late-stage Qi training cultivators, they would inevitably face losses when facing foundation-building monsters.
No matter which one, they were all the elite of their Shuiyun Pavilion and could not afford to lose.
Therefore, if she could avoid taking risks, she would never be willing to take risks.
Not to mention, Zhou Changwang had already proved the accuracy of his premonition several times before, so she was naturally very convinced.
Hearing this, Zhao Tianheng thought for a while and said, "Why don't you go first, and I'll take a test with the talisman?
Don't worry, I'll stay away from you and never take risks. There won't be any danger."
"Try to be careful."
Shen Xinyi glanced at him and didn't say whether she agreed or not.
But the group of people still left the place quickly.
Zhao Tianheng thought about it, and directly took out a hairy zombie talisman and activated it.
Buzz!
A hairy zombie appeared.
"Go!"
Zhao Tianheng quickly commanded the hairy zombie to jump towards the dense grass in front.
One jump, one leap.
Three feet, seven feet, ten feet...
Getting closer and closer to the foundation-building spiritual object, the Diyin Lingzhi.
"No danger?"
Zhao Tianheng felt relieved and was about to move forward.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed.
He saw that the hairy zombie was torn to pieces in the blink of an eye.
With his eyesight, he almost failed to find the other party's trace.
Even the sound was not heard at all.
"This is..."
Zhao Tianheng's face turned pale, and he did not hesitate at all. He quickly retreated without making any sound, because he was afraid that the existence would track him down. He deliberately circled around and confirmed that there was no danger before he dared to rush in the direction of Zhou Changwang and others.
Hearing the movement behind him, Zhou Changwang turned around quickly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Zhao Tianheng. However, everyone's expressions did not relax when they saw the other party's face.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou's perception is really amazing.
There is indeed a monster hiding there.
Foundation-building monster!"
Zhao Tianheng took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Changwang first, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Zhou Changwang didn't say anything.
His derivative technique had long been cultivated to perfection by him, and his perception was extremely sharp, and he had never made any mistakes so far.
Since he sensed the danger, there must be danger inside.
"What monster is it?"
Liu Xun next to him couldn't help asking.
He knew Zhao Tianheng's strength, and he was considered a strong man in the ninth level of Qi training. He was so scared that his face turned pale, and he looked very scared, so he was naturally curious.
"A strange beast among tigers, a black-striped white-haired tiger."
Zhao Tianheng said in a deep voice.
Hiss!
A group of people took a breath of cold air.
The black-striped white-haired tiger is much stronger than ordinary tiger monsters. It is a tiger monster with special blood. Even if it is a monster in the early stage of foundation building, a black-striped white-haired tiger can fight against three big monsters of the same level.
Fortunately, fortunately...
Everyone couldn't help but look at Zhou Changwang with some relief.
Fortunately, there was a reminder from Brother Zhou, otherwise they would definitely not be able to help but pick the foundation building spiritual object Diyin Lingzhi.
By then, it is uncertain how many people in the group can escape.
"Roar!"
Just at this time, a huge tiger roar came from a distance.
"Black-striped white-haired tiger? Run..."
Immediately afterwards, a voice that was so terrified that it was deformed quickly came.
"Ah..."
Accompanied by a scream.
"Help!"
...
A group of people looked at each other quickly.
There was no thought of turning around to save them at all, and they quickly rushed to the distance.
"Thanks to Brother Zhou's reminder.
Otherwise, our fate would not be much better than theirs."
At this time, everyone was impressed.
"I don't know which team that group of people belong to?"
"Who cares who they are.
As long as we are safe."
While discussing, everyone soon stopped thinking about others, because they found another foundation-building spiritual object, the Fantasy Ice Spirit Fruit.
This spiritual fruit can mature in a hundred years.
But the success rate is extremely low, because after the fruit is produced, it will soon produce strange phenomena and be eaten by monsters, so the probability of discovering it in the wild is extremely low.
Unexpectedly, they could find a plant, and it has been growing for more than 80 years, and it has already produced fruits. Although it is still a little green, it has obviously produced strange phenomena, with wisps of spiritual energy lingering, and even exuding a strange fragrance...
However, everyone did not act rashly, but all looked at Zhou Changwang.
"There is a demon beast guarding it, but it is not a big threat."
Zhou Changwang was silent for a while before speaking.
The demon beast guarding this spiritual plant has been seen.
It is a first-grade high-level demon beast, the Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf.
Although it is also considered a different species among demon beasts, it has rich blood and its combat power is far superior to ordinary demon beasts of the same level.
But Zhao Tianheng, Liu Xun, Xu Shaojie, and Xu Ying attacked together.
Soon the Ice and Fire Two-Headed Wolf was killed, and its fur, flesh, and blood were harvested, as well as the demon pill.
It actually contributed two at once.
It was an unexpected surprise.
Soon, the entire Fantasy Ice Spirit Fruit was dug up and sealed.
Then the group continued to go deeper.
From time to time, some spiritual materials can be harvested.
There are second-grade and third-grade ones.
Unfortunately, not all spiritual materials are foundation-building spiritual objects.
Then, a few hours later.
A group of people stood on a hilltop.
"This is the first level of the Nine-Layered Mountain, and there are still eight levels ahead.
It is said that in the ninth level of the mountain, there grows a thousand-year-old enlightenment tea, which is a real fifth-grade spiritual tea tree.
Unfortunately, ordinary cultivators can't reach the Nine-Layered Mountain at all.
Naturally, they can't pick the thousand-year-old enlightenment tea leaves."
Fang Zhiqing couldn't help but speak.
"The thousand-year-old enlightenment tea, just the tea growth period, takes a hundred years.
It takes a hundred years for a crop to mature.
Now it has been exactly a hundred years since the last time it was picked.
But with our strength, it is impossible to pick it."
Shen Xinyi shook her head, but she was very sober.
The nine-layer mountain in the Divine Wind Valley is more dangerous than the previous one.
Even if the poisonous fog has dissipated now, the deeper you go, the thicker the fog and poison will be.
The sight of the crowd is naturally much lower.
Soon, a group of people went down the mountain.
Zhou Changwang's eyes suddenly focused, and his face showed a little excitement. He whispered: "Third-grade spiritual fruit, Holy Flame Fruit.
And it has grown for three hundred years and is about to mature."
"What?"
"Really?"
A group of people were shocked and excited.
"But be careful. This kind of spiritual fruit is about to mature. There must be monsters guarding it."
Shen Xinyi said in a deep voice. Following Zhou Changwang's gaze, a light flashed in her eyes and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She said, "It is indeed the Holy Flame Fruit. There are five spiritual fruits hanging on the fruit tree.
This Holy Flame Fruit is said to be able to ignore the bottleneck of the realm and directly improve the cultivator to a small realm.
For any Qi training cultivator, it is a dream come true, which can save several years of hard training.
Even if the foundation-building cultivator eats it, it will have a certain effect.
I didn't expect that we were so lucky. Not only did we encounter this kind of spiritual fruit, but it was also a Holy Flame Fruit tree that was about to mature.
It depends on the situation. It will only take three to five years for this fruit tree to mature."
Other people, including those who mastered the spiritual eye technique, also vaguely saw the spiritual fruit tree at this time.
In addition to the Holy Flame Fruit tree, there are many spiritual peach trees growing around.
Each grain is full and looks very tempting.
However, the many demon monkeys climbing on the spiritual peach trees made everyone frown.
"Trouble!
There is actually a group of harlequin wind demon monkeys living here.
There are dozens of them next to the Holy Flame Fruit, among which there are seven or eight harlequin wind demon monkeys that are comparable to late-stage Qi training cultivators.
The whole monkey group has more than a hundred."
Zhao Tianheng couldn't help but frowned.
"It's just that the Holy Flame Fruit is not fully ripe, otherwise it would have been eaten by them long ago."
"No matter what, we have to give it a try.
It's just a group of demon monkeys. As long as there is no Foundation Establishment Realm demon, the threat is not great."
Xu Shaojie said, but his eyes couldn't help looking at Zhou Changwang.
He didn't find out whether there was a Foundation Establishment Realm demon.
But he also admired Zhou Changwang's perception, so whether to take action depends on whether the other party can sense the Foundation Establishment Realm demon.
If there is?
Then there is no need to say more, stay as far away as possible.
If not, they would immediately become active.
Others had the same idea.
"Try it!"
Zhou Changwang was also very tempted by the Holy Flame Fruit.
One fruit could increase his cultivation by one small realm?
He had just broken through to the eighth level of Qi training not long ago. If he had such a spiritual fruit, wouldn't he be able to break through to the ninth level of Qi training soon?
Save countless hard work?
Of course he wanted it.
So the group quickly approached.
Roar!
However, this group of painted-faced wind demon monkeys seemed to be very alert. As soon as they approached, a demon monkey discovered their traces and immediately roared fiercely.
Soon, a group of demon monkeys came down from the fruit trees and rushed towards them.
"So fierce?"
Liu Xun, deputy captain of the guard team, was shocked.
"After all, this is the Divine Wind Valley, which is covered by miasma all year round.
Most of the demon beasts here fight fiercely.
It is very normal to have such behavior."
Zhao Tianheng explained, but he had already driven his magic weapon to rush out.
Boom!
A golden cone flashed like lightning.
Two demon monkeys were pierced in succession.
While he was doing it, others also took action.
At this time, they did not skimp on their spiritual talismans, and threw out summoning talismans, hairy zombie talismans, evil-faced ghost talismans, and mountain-driving ghost talismans one by one.
The hairy zombies, evil-faced ghosts, and mountain-driving ghosts roared silently and rushed towards the group of demon monkeys excitedly.
And behind them were Zhou Changwang and his group.
Each of them had a protective magic weapon on their body, and their spiritual consciousness controlled their own magic weapon, and they kept slashing at the demon monkeys.
One, two, three...
Although there were many demon monkeys, most of them were relatively weak.
Low-level and mid-level.
Facing the attack of Zhou Changwang and others, and the unconscious and evil-faced ghosts and other summoned creatures who only knew how to charge, they had no power to fight back.
Soon, a group of people pushed in.
It also really alarmed some relatively powerful demon monkeys inside.
Roar!
Jie!
A series of earth-shaking roars came, and then they rushed over quickly.
The flower-faced wind demon monkeys of the first-level high-level are definitely not weak.
Any one of them is comparable to the eighth and ninth level cultivators of Qi training.
If it is a peak demon beast at this level, it is a terrifying existence that requires several late-stage Qi training cultivators to work together to deal with.
At this time, as the first-level high-level demon monkeys rushed over one by one.
Bang!
The two mountain-driving ghosts charging in front were torn to pieces and disappeared.
The hairy zombies and evil-faced ghosts were also quickly shattered under their charge, turning into dots of spiritual light and dissipating.
Fortunately, the magical weapons of other cultivators in the back were extremely powerful.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
One demon monkey after another was killed.
Especially Shen Xinyi, she was driving a green flying sword, with a flash of spiritual light, and quickly rushed to a first-grade high-level demon monkey.
The demon monkey roared, and hammered hard with its arms, trying to block it with its tough flesh.
The flying sword just turned.
Puff!
Its arm was completely cut off, and then it drilled along its neck.
Pierced from front to back!
Blood spurted out!
None of the people present were weak.
Even the two spiritual plant masters, Lu Yun and Fang Zhiqing, were using their own magic weapons to fiercely attack the demon monkeys rushing around.
However, the most surprising thing was Zhang Siyu.
She cast a spell, and a little bit of spiritual light fell on a demon monkey. The other party's eyes immediately glowed red, and then it seemed to be crazy, and quickly attacked the surrounding demon monkeys, causing some chaos.
"Illusion?"
Zhou Changwang was stunned.
He did not hesitate to attack.
The Gengjin finger tapped continuously.
Whenever a demon monkey approached, there would be an extra hole in its head.
Although most of the demon monkeys he killed were low-level demon monkeys of the first rank, such a quick spell, and the seemingly ordinary Gengjin finger, could actually cause such a huge lethality, which still made people look at it sideways.
However, although they acted quickly, the number of demon monkeys was too large.
They rushed forward one after another, and some demon monkeys who had mastered magic used earth arrows, black fog, and even threw huge stones, which caused them some trouble.
Boom!
Finally, someone couldn't help throwing out the talisman.
Sealing thunder talisman!
With a loud bang, a first-grade intermediate demon monkey was instantly charred.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Then, the second and third talismans!
The first one was thrown out by Zhang Siyu.
She saw a demon monkey approaching within three feet and was about to continue to approach, so she threw out the talisman in a panic.
As for the other few, they were thrown out by Zhou Changwang.
He couldn't show too much strength in the crowd.
But he had no shortage of talismans.
He wouldn't be stingy, of course, he kept throwing them out, and soon suppressed the group of demon monkeys.
Then, with the combined efforts of Shen Xinyi and others, the number of demon monkeys gradually decreased, and only a few low-level demon monkeys hid on the periphery, screaming and wandering.
They would not pay attention and continued to advance.
Soon they approached the Holy Flame Fruit tree.
At this time, there were three first-grade high-level demon monkeys under the fruit tree.
One of them was particularly tall and strong, and should be the monkey king of this group of demon monkeys.
The monkey king let out an angry roar.
Then the two demon monkeys beside it rushed over quickly.
Shen Xinyi and others were about to take action to quickly kill the two demon monkeys, but they saw that the monkey king actually rushed to the Holy Flame Fruit tree at this time and punched it hard.
It seemed that he knew their purpose and wanted to destroy the fruit tree in advance.
Once the fruit tree was destroyed, the Holy Flame Fruit that had not yet grown to maturity would inevitably lose its effect and become useless fruit. The spiritual energy would dissipate in a very short time.
"Don't..."
"You dare?"
...
