Chapter 494 The Second Mission
"Fellow Daoist Ye, can you tell me what the second task is now? At least let Wang have a foundation!"
Ye Yinan smiled when he heard this and asked: "The Dingshen Incense from last time has been given to fellow Taoist. Does fellow Taoist know what this thing is made of?"
"I am just a monk from a small family. How do you know how to make such treasures?" Wang Hao shook his head.
"The Dingshen Incense is made from the orchid that is over a thousand years old. This medicine has the effect of exorcising evil spirits and calming the mind. It often grows in extremely cold mountains and is very rare," Ye Yinan said lightly!
Wang Hao frowned: "Fellow Daoist Ye, isn't this second mission asking me to go down and look for the Ice Orchid? I've never heard of such elixirs, so where can I find them?"
"No, no!" Ye Yinan shook his head slightly and continued: "My Ye family has learned about the ice orchid. It is on Lanling Island in the extreme south. Lanling Island is very large, covering more than four kilometers. There are several times the number of islands with upper-grade spiritual veins. It is not so much an island as a continent. Unfortunately, Lanling Island is covered with snow all year round and the cold wind is raging. The human race cannot survive for a long time. Otherwise, such a treasure land would have been destroyed long ago. Occupied by human forces!"
"Because the human race rarely sets foot in it, many ice elixirs grow there. The ice orchid is one of the specialties of Lanling Island. Every few years, the sects in the South China Sea will send monks to pick it. In order to prevent the ice orchid from being picked, They are all exhausted, and the major forces have imposed restrictions. Each Nascent Soul family can only pick one ice orchid in a hundred years! Now it’s time for my Ye family to pick it!”
"Then my next task is to go to Lanling Island and pick ice orchids? I hope Fellow Daoist Ye will inform you about the route and the dangers involved!" Wang Hao was still happy to go there if he could pick up new elixir seeds.
Ye Yinan shook his head again and said: "Only the core personnel can know the secret of Lanling Island. This time Ye will go with fellow Taoist. What fellow Taoist needs to do is to escort me and ensure Ye's safety on Lanling Island." There are a lot of ice monsters, which are not easy to deal with!"
Wang Hao didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Lanling Island could produce elixirs for refining infant-forming spiritual objects, so the secret would naturally not be shared with outsiders.
According to the environment described by Ye Yinan, in the vast snowfield, even if you walk in the field, you may not be able to remember the route. But that is for ordinary people. Does Wang Hao have a cheating magic map? Just follow him with your eyes closed, and the route will be revealed. It can also be recorded clearly!
But he won't go to Lanling Island for nothing. As long as he gets the seeds, the farm will be able to produce enough, so why go to such a dangerous place!
After Wang Hao pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, "The mission is clear. Then, Fellow Daoist Ye, when will we set off?"
Seeing Wang Hao's readily agreed, Ye Yinan immediately said: "If there is nothing wrong with Fellow Daoist Wang, it is best to leave now. However, Fellow Daoist Wang said just now that the natal spirit sword is damaged, so we should wait for half a month for the materials to be delivered. , It’s not too late for Daoist Wang to repair the magic weapon, but I don’t know whether the damage to Daoist Wang’s spiritual sword is serious or how long it will take to repair it!”
"It's just contaminated by blood and light. It should be repaired by slowly warming it up. It will take about ten years. If it is refined with golden marrow and jade, it will only take a few months to warm it up! I can warm it up on the road. It won’t waste time!”
"That's good. We'll just wait for half a month. If fellow Taoists have anything to do during this period, you can go and do it. Just come back here and meet again in half a month!"
Naturally, nothing could be done for half a month. Wang Hao just returned to Danfu Pavilion, took a look at the business of the shop, and gave instructions to Wang Wenjing and several alchemists and Wang Wencai and several puppet makers in their skills!
After Wang Yanfeng left, the store is now managed by Wang Wenjiang and Wang Wenzhu. They have many years of experience and are much calmer.
Wang Wenzhu has not looked for a Taoist companion until now. If he puts it in the market and contacts more people, he may be able to change it!
Half a month later, Wang Hao found Ye Yinan and received the Golden Marrow Jade. He spent three days refining the Golden Light Sword. After doing all this, he followed Ye Yinan on the teleportation array to the southernmost point. Nanxingfang City.
Further south, there is no teleportation array available, and they need to fly slowly for the next distance!
The temperature in Nanxingfang City is already very low. The low-level monks on the street are all wearing thick animal skins. The streets are also very deserted, and there is not much business in the shops.
In a place like this, it is not easy for low-level monks to survive, and there are not many of them. The monks above the foundation level occasionally come to stay and replenish some living supplies. There are many specialties here in the sea. You can pick them up by yourself. There is no need to buy them, and the prices are not high. , not many people are selling here.
Along the way, Ye Yinan told Wang Hao a lot about Lanling Island. It is said that Lanling Island is a part of the mainland. As long as you climb over the snowy mountains, you can reach another continent.
But no one has ever tried it.
Because it is too difficult to climb over the snow-capped mountains of Lanling Island, it is rumored that there are fifth-order monsters among them that exceed those of Yuanying monks, and there are more than ten fourth-order monsters!
Just because they don't like the stuffy environment, they hide here, but that doesn't mean they're easy to mess with!
The monks who came to Lanling Island to collect medicine were not ordinary people, but even so, there were still a lot of missing people.
Those ice monsters occupy a favorable location and are much more difficult to deal with than the monsters in the sea!
And we often encounter groups of monsters, such as wolf-shaped monsters, living in long groups.
The two set out from Nanxing Market and flew nearly two million miles, which took more than a month. The closer they got to Lanling Island, the more violent the Nine Cold Winds in the sky became. Their strength was not enough to force through the winds, so they could only stop and go, which delayed them a lot of time.
When Wang Hao first arrived at Lanling Island, he was deeply shocked. It was not that he had never been to a cold place. In the Bailing Secret Realm, the area he arrived at after teleporting was also covered with snow and the temperature was extremely low.
But compared with this place, it was a bit of a small witch meeting a big witch!
On Lanling Island, the breath almost turned into ice, and it was white everywhere. All the cold-resistant plants growing were cedars, snow fir, etc.
Many trees seemed to have grown for thousands of years, and ordinary trees occasionally mixed with these spiritual trees.
Unfortunately, these spiritual trees are very hard, and it will take a lot of time to cut down one.
And Ye Yinan would not let Wang Hao do this. There are a large number of demon beasts such as snow ferns and snow foxes living here. If they make a little noise, they may be discovered by their keen sense!
High in the sky, Ye Yinan stopped, pointed ahead, and said to Wang Hao with a serious face: "Friend Wang, you must be careful on the way forward. Some places can be flown, and some places need to walk."
