Chapter 454 Panic
"The spirit bird Qingque has fallen for more than two hundred years?, in other words, the disappearance of the holy spring is because of this?" Ning Yue's heart sank, he didn't expect that the rumors he had missed at the beginning would have such an important point.
Shaking his head, Shu Ti replied: "I don't know, and no one can say clearly." However, with the fall of the spirit bird, the demon bird with the triple attributes of wind, fire, and poison occupied Qingque Mountain, and the human powerhouse attacked several times, all of which were lost. During the period, there was also a powerful force, the sect master personally shot, and the demon bird fought viciously for a day and a night, and finally burned life to gather strength, turned into a glowing giant to fight with it, it is said that at the beginning of the upper hand, but a mistake in a move, was ignited by the demon bird spewing poisonous fire on the head, and then a wing slapped into the holy spring, so far the whereabouts are unknown. After a few more years, the demon bird was finally killed. When people finally climbed to the top of the mountain again, they found that the holy spring was turbid, and there was no aura, only a poisonous miasma. ”
Nodding and sighing, Ning Yue said, "I didn't expect that there would be such a thing." ”
Suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he blurted out again: "Wait a minute, it was the giant demon bird that killed the spirit bird Qingque with the triple attributes of wind, fire, and poison?
Saying this, Shu Ti was also surprised, and said: "After you say so, it's true." It's just that the Demon Bird has been falling for more than 200 years, how can it appear again? Moreover, the terrifying Demon Beast that slaughtered the human powerhouse has no reason to help us. ”
Ning Yue raised his hand and rubbed his chin, and speculated: "After all, the rumors have been a matter of more than two hundred years, and how much of it is true, as future generations, we can't tell at all. Moreover, there must be a reason for the reappearance of the holy spring after more than 200 years. If the strange bird you see today is really the magic bird of the past, it will reappear with the holy spring, but it is also reasonable. As for the truth, I'm afraid we will only know when we arrive at Qingque Mountain. ”
"That's right. Myself, my brother and I also intended to go to Qingque Mountain, but I was in a hurry to refine an elixir and needed the tongue of a stone armor ape, so I came here to hunt. Now, my brother is injured, and I'm afraid he won't be able to go to Qingque Mountain. After that, I shouldn't be able to walk with you. ”
After that, Shu Ti looked back and saw that Shu Quan was still in a coma. But at the very least, the purple-blue color on his face had faded a lot, and the toxins were wearing off.
Ning Yue responded: "This is natural, the two of you will please." It's just that I only heard about the reappearance of the holy spring and decided to go to Qingque Mountain, and I don't know the specific location. If so, can you let me know?"
"You don't know the location, you dare to trespass?"
Suddenly, Shu Ti was startled, stood up directly, raised his hand to point at Ning Yue, and shouted: "In other words, you don't know that around Qingque Mountain is the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, almost every two or three peaks are occupied by a Demon Beast Overlord, and in the entire mountain range, a large number of fierce demon beasts are entrenched. Even if it is a large sect force nearby, the disciples and elders of the sect go together, but they are cautious, not to mention that they break in directly and rashly alone, it is simply a way to kill themselves. ”
"Yes, I don't know, but I can guess some. For the place where the essence of heaven and earth gathers, the demonic beasts have a stronger perception ability than the human powerhouse, and it is reasonable to be entrenched around. I just want to walk through there, I don't have to fight those monsters, even if I'm alone, what about sneaking. ”
Ning Yue smiled faintly, with the speed of his body and the concealment ability of the refractive cloak, unless he encountered a special kind of demonic beast, it was easy to deliberately avoid the battle.
"However, there is still some danger, too reckless. ”
Shu Ti still shook her head, and in her eyes, a glimmer of light that quietly flashed was slightly dimmed. In the end, she still clasped her hands and seemed to have made a decision.
"That...... Let me tell you the truth, the elixir I want to refine this time is very special, it is not for healing or Pei Yuan to consolidate the foundation, but to grind it into powder and hold it in the palm of your hand, the Xuan Force is stimulated, and the smell is scattered with the wind, human beings are just a little uncomfortable, and the demonic beast smells it, and it definitely does not dare to approach easily. In this way, it will be much easier to walk through the mountains where those demonic beasts are entrenched. ”
"Oh, what do you mean by telling me this?"
A hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, but Ning Yue could hear that there was something in Shu Ti's words, and the reminder she had just given was not just a well-intentioned advice.
Lowering his head, Shu Ti muttered, "I mean to say, if you can help me hunt a few stone armor apes, you are helping to send my injured brother back to the sect." After I go back, I have successfully refined the elixir, so I can share your share and go to Qingque Mountain together, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
Ning Yue snorted and said with a smile: "It turned out that this was the plan, why don't you just say it, you have to beat around the bush like this?" You can think about it, but I don't know, tossing back and forth like this will delay the trip for a few days." ”
Shaking his head again and again, Shu Ti said: "Two days at most." Because, our sect is also on the way to Qingque Mountain from here, just a little detour. The reason why I came here in reverse is only because it is the only place where the stone armor orangutes live. ”
"Okay, deal. ”
Ning Yue's refreshing answer was beyond Shu Ti's expectations, and in an instant, she looked happy and nodded vigorously.
"Great!"
"By the way, the stone armor ape is the one who died in front of the giant scorpion's lair, except for the wolf beasts, right? I just have enough to eat and want to go and move, so I'll go and see if I can hunt a few. ”
With that, Ning Yue got up and walked into the distance.
"Just the tongue is enough. Be careful, the surface of the body is very defensive, and only by targeting the soft parts of the joints can it cause effective trauma. Also, at the foot of another hill next door, there is a small stream, please take some water back. ”
Behind, Shu Ti was shouting and throwing a water bladder at the same time.
Without looking back, Ning Yue reached out and grabbed the water bladder, and responded, "Understood." ”
In my heart, I secretly complained, he was really a troublesome guy, and he was really casual enough to call himself. Presumably, she is used to this on weekdays, so it can be imagined that her brother Shuquan should not be doing well, right?
Even so, there will be no ambiguity in doing things, and with the cover of the refractive cloak, it is relatively easy to hunt a few demonic beasts. During this period, Ning Yue also understood why Shu Ti could remind him that the stone armor ape defense was very strong, even if the Dark Xuan Ancient Sword was cut head-on, it could not completely break the stone armor of this demonic beast, it was indeed a bit hard.
But compared to the previous ancient spiny crocodile scorpion, it is undoubtedly too far behind.
At sunset, the tongues of the four stone armor apeas reached their hands, and Ning Yue leaned over the stream at the foot of the mountain to wash his hands, filling the water bladder by the way.
In this winter, the palm of his hand was immersed in the stream, and the cold was biting, even with his cultivation, he grinned slightly. When the water bladder was taken out, the whole person suddenly trembled and froze in place.
Cold, the cold that appeared out of thin air seemed to have seeped into the bones, but it was definitely not because of the stream. The only explanation is that the scorpion meat I had eaten before was very cold, and I didn't expect to be stimulated by the cold stream water at this time, and I had another attack.
"Hell, I didn't eat that much if I knew I wouldn't have eaten so much. ”
Sighing helplessly, Ning Yue sat down cross-legged on the spot, flipped his palms, and the Xuan Force in the meridians in his body began to operate, and the fire elemental energy that was urged invaded several places where the cold qi was condensed, quickly scorching it. In the end, all that was left was pure power.
For such a gift, of course, he took it with a smile, wrapped it all in the scorching Xuan power, and slowly absorbed it into the dantian.
At the moment of completion, Ning Yue felt that the strength in his body had risen a lot, opened his eyes and smiled proudly, and found that the night had already fallen, and the surroundings were gradually shrouded in pitch black.
"I need to go back quickly. ”
When he took the first step, his body trembled again, and after the astonishment, ecstasy swelled.
After absorbing the cold power derived from the scorpion flesh, the condensed Xuan Power in the meridians reached a new level, and his own cultivation suddenly touched the next realm realm.
The eightfold spirit awakening realm should be able to break through and reach.
However, the place of breakthrough is not here, the night is the time when many predator beasts start to be active, and this is the only water source nearby, where does Ning Yue dare to stay here in a state of concentration without the ability to resist.
The wind rose and swept swiftly, and he began to return on his journey. Shu Ti's strength may not be strong enough, but as a protector when breaking through, it should be enough.
"Hey, you're too slow, aren't you?"
Finally waiting for Ning Yue to return, Shu Ti pursed her lips and snorted angrily.
"Titi, how do you speak?"
Another voice came from her side, but it was slightly weak, and the confidence was not enough, but Shu Quan woke up, and the purple and cyan poisonous gas on his face all disappeared, and all that was left was weak and pale.
"I had an accident on the way, so I came back late, but I got everything you wanted. ”
After Ning Yue smiled at Shu Quan, he immediately turned to Shu Ti and put down the water bladder and scarlet tongue.
His eyes lit up, and Shu Ti grinned: "Very good, I have the right to forgive you." ”
In the midst of the cheers, she ran to the side with her scarlet tongue in her hand, as if she couldn't wait to start dealing with it.
Sighing helplessly, Shu Quan looked at Ning Yue and said, "I have heard everything Ti Ti said, Brother Ning Yue, thank you." The grace of saving lives is unforgettable. As for Titi's rudeness, her personality is like this, her mouth is a little poisonous, she loves to be ruthless, but she has no malice. I offended before, and I am my brother to compensate her, and I hope to forgive me. ”
Ning Yue arched his hand and replied: "Brother Shu Quan's words are serious, I get along with Sister Ling quite well." As for the grace of saving lives, I really dare not take it. If it weren't for that strange bird, you and I would probably not be able to escape today. ”
Shu Quan said again: "No, Brother Ning Yue is willing to act at that time, which is kindness." Besides, if it weren't for you, my brother and sister would have died before the strange bird arrived. Titi is really nonsense, and even negotiated conditions with you. Her words, don't take it to heart, the refined elixir will have your share. But you don't have to go all the way with us. ”
"It's okay, there are multiple companions on the road, and they can also take care of each other, so don't worry about these days. If Brother Shu really wants to reciprocate, there is just something to ask for right now. I came back late because on the way, I suddenly felt as if my cultivation had finally reached the next level of bottleneck, and it was likely that I could break through. It's just that it may be inconvenient to be alone at night, so ......"
"Brother Ning Yue, but don't worry, just break through. In the meantime, my brother and sister will keep you safe. ”
"Thank you. ”
The night was darker, and it had been more than an hour since Ning Yue began to break through.
Shu Ti was bored and played with a small flame in his palm, and muttered: "Brother, I have negotiated the conditions with him, why do you want to add one more?"
Shu Quan shook his head and said: "Titi, to be a man, you must understand Entubao." Brother Ning Yue has helped us a lot, what is this? Besides, hasn't it been safe and sound until now? This is the territory of the Demon Beast Overlord, how can other Demon Beasts dare to break in at will. The news of its death didn't get out so quickly. Tonight, it's going to be fine. It's okay to send a favor to you. ”
"Brother, can you not say something like that. I've been a little nervous. ”
Shaking his head, Shu Ti sighed softly.
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the distance of the mountain forest, and the sharp sound was extremely harsh, startling countless birds in the trees.
"What's wrong!"
Shu Quan was suddenly startled and struggled to get up.
Shu Ti crossed his arm and motioned for him to stop, listening to the roar in the wind, his face gradually gloomy, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.
"How is that possible...... Why is this voice so similar to the dead ancient thorny crocodile scorpion?"
