Chapter 68: Distress
At this time, I suddenly saw a female cultivator stepping on a slender rope and flying over this foul-smelling quagmire.
All the monks who fell into the quagmire stared at her with amazement and envy, even Lu Hongxiu and Xiao Zhe.
If you look closely, the rope under the nun doesn't need to be controlled by the monk's inner aura, as if the aura has accumulated in the rope itself.
In fact, the nun did not use the aura, but only used her own divine sense to control the direction of the ascension rope, and survived the foul quagmire where the monks could not use the aura.
When the female cultivator arrived at the shore of the quagmire, she turned around and smiled at a group of monks who had been transferred into the foul-smelling quagmire, and reminded her in a friendly manner: "If you fellow Daoists don't leave the quagmire as soon as possible, I'm afraid you will fall into the belly of the demon beast in a while." ”
As soon as the nun finished speaking, the monks in the quagmire had no time to show their frightened expressions, and the surroundings of the quagmire began to "gurgle" and bubble.
Then a long mouth stretched out from the foul-smelling quagmire, dark red eyes, sharp fangs, a body more than nine feet long, the color on its back was exactly the same as the quagmire, hidden in the quagmire, and no one even noticed it at first!
Lu Hongxiu's face changed, "Bloodthirsty crocodile!" ”
This bloodthirsty crocodile is a fourth-level demon beast, equivalent to the cultivation of the early stage of the human monk Jin Dan, and is good at sneaking attacks in the quagmire, if it is on land, there is nothing to fear, but now they are in a foul stinking quagmire, and they can't use aura, this kind of situation is no different from the meat placed on the chopping board!
It is imperative that they escape from this quagmire. When they got ashore, they could teach these bloodthirsty crocodiles a lesson.
Xu was inspired by the female cultivator just now, Lu Hongxiu used his divine sense to communicate his natal magic weapon, the sword that was originally behind him flashed, let out a low sound, and flew into the air, and then plunged into the quagmire, Lu Hongxiu stretched out a hand and grabbed the handle of the sword, and the sword "buzzed" a few times, as if it was exerting force. Then he pulled Lu Hongxiu out of the quagmire little by little.
Wait for Lu Hongxiu to be pulled out of the foul-smelling quagmire. Screams were already ringing around the quagmire, and the bloodthirsty crocodiles had begun to attack the monks.
Some people saw that Lu Hongxiu summoned the natal magic weapon to help, and they followed suit, but unfortunately none of them were successful.
These people don't know. Lu Hongxiu is proficient in refining weapons. The hilt of his sword, which is his natal weapon, is inlaid with a special transparent bead. This bead can store a little aura, although for the Jindan monk, this stored aura is nothing. But at this time, it played a key role.
Lu Hongxiu's sword is called Kaicheng Sword, which rescued Lu Hongxiu from the quagmire, and the originally translucent beads on the hilt of the sword have become much darker, and it can't be supported for long.
Compared with Lu Hongxiu's Kaicheng Sword, how could these monks' natal magic weapons be able to save people!
Lu Hongxiu looked at this miserable scene, and many monks around him reached out to him for help, but Lu Hongxiu's eyes all glanced at it lightly, and finally landed on Xiao Zhe, who was closest to him, his lips pursed slightly, but he turned his head coldly and fled away with a flying sword.
Although Xiao Zhe was still mired in the quagmire of stench, in the face of Lu Hongxiu's approach, he never said a word for help from beginning to end.
It seems that the two of them already knew each other's decision, but in fact, he was the same as Lu Hongxiu, if he escaped first, he would definitely not save him.
Before entering the Heavenly Realm, they had sworn to each other that they would not harm their teammates, and this situation was not considered a violation of their oath.
Ten meters ahead, a huge bloodthirsty crocodile suddenly burst out, and in the open mouth of the blood basin, even the residue of the corpse of the previous monk could be found, mixed with the smell of blood, this situation only made people sick.
Xiao Zhe was actually very nervous in his heart, he couldn't fight back in the quagmire, once he was bitten by a bloodthirsty crocodile, it was a dead end.
Thinking of Lou Zheng, Xiao Zhe gritted his teeth and made himself calmer.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhe thought of a way, he took out a few transformation talismans from his body, and then bit his index finger and flicked blood into the talisman.
There are two ways to urge the talisman, the first is to urge the aura, and the second is to urge the essence blood, at this time Xiao Zhe can't use the aura, so he can only use the second method.
A few yellow talismans flashed in the air, and they turned into two low-level cranes, and the two cranes desperately fanned their wings, holding Xiao Zhe's Taoist robe, which dragged him out of the quagmire, and Xiao Zhe turned over and landed on the back of one of the cranes.
And the bloodthirsty crocodile that bit over jumped to the location where Xiao Zhe had just been, and tore the remaining immortal crane that the talisman turned into to pieces.
The crane under him was getting weaker and weaker, and he was about to disappear, but fortunately, before he disappeared, he sent Xiao Zhe to the shore.
The bloodthirsty crocodile had been following behind and chased him to the shore with teeth and claws, and when he saw Xiao Zhe coming ashore, he reluctantly turned his head and dived into the foul-smelling quagmire to find another target to hunt.
Xiao Zhe landed on the shore, turned his head to look at a foul-smelling quagmire behind him, there were more than a dozen Jindan monks who fell into the quagmire, only a few escaped, and all the rest were buried in the mouth of the bloodthirsty crocodile, and when those bones completely sank into the mire, this quagmire returned to calm.
It seems to have completely erased the torture.
Sure enough, the Jindan monks who could be classified as the upper echelons of Xiuzhen on the outside, it was only a matter of a moment to fall here, and this Heavenly Void Realm was really full of murderous opportunities!
This is only the first layer, there are already Jindan monks dead, then the number of subsequent layers will only be a hundred times more difficult.
Xiao Zhe didn't think much about it, performed a few cleansing techniques, removed the stinky mud from his body, took out the map and rushed towards the place where the mangroves converged.
After the white light flashed in front of Dai Zizhen's eyes, countless snakes appeared in front of him, their bodies writhing, spitting red letters, making people's scalps tingle.
Dai Zizhen resisted the urge to vomit, waved her hands, and spilled a handful of medicinal powder, and then carefully left the snake group step by step, although she fell into the snake group, but Dai Zizhen found that there was a white light entrance behind the snake group, she secretly noted down here, did not dare to delay, and left quickly.
Di Yongchang and Lou Zheng waited in the mangrove forest for half an hour, during which time, in order to prevent other teams from discovering the yellow entrance in the mangrove forest, Di Yongchang arranged a formation around the area to hide the entrance.
As long as Lou Zheng doesn't use spiritual power. Just like mortals, this is tantamount to a natural concealment technique, and Di Yongchang is good at setting up formations, using a breathing array to cover his breath, so that the two of them have escaped several waves of search.
An hour and a half later, Lu Hongxiu was finally the first to come to meet the two of them, and not long after, Dai Zizhen also arrived.
The four of them gathered together and each talked about their experiences after entering the entrance to the Heavenly Realm.
It's been an hour and a half, and Xiao Zhe still hasn't arrived yet.
Lou Zheng was a little worried. Xiao Zhe didn't know what he had encountered. Why hasn't he come here yet, he's always been unlucky. ”
Dai Zizhen also understood the relationship between the two of them, and comforted: "This secret realm is very dangerous. The group of venomous snakes I just encountered. If not, I would have poisoned the work. I'm afraid I won't come so quickly. Presumably, Xiao Zhe also encountered some difficult demon beasts, let's wait, anyway, it will be a long time. ”
But at this time, Lu Hongxiu said: "It's better for us to leave a mark here first." When he arrives, we will naturally see it, and the few of us will go to find the entrance to the inner layer first. ”
Di Yongchang chuckled lightly, and before he could say that he had found the entrance to the yellow light, Xiao Zhe had already appeared in the field of vision of several people.
Seeing Xiao Zhe's appearance safe and sound, Lou Zheng's expression finally turned cloudy, she hurriedly greeted her, and asked worriedly, "Xiao Zhe, why did you come here now, did you encounter trouble on the way." ”
Xiao Zhe seemed to inadvertently glance in the direction of Lu Hongxiu, and then gently reassured Lou Zheng, "When I came in, I met a few fourth-level demon beasts, and they were far away from the mangrove forest, so it was too late." ”
Xiao Zhe and Lou Zheng came to the three of them, Lu Hongxiu stood beside Xiao Zhe, the two of them were about the same height, and they both had perennial cold faces, but the sensitive Dai Zizhen always felt that there seemed to be a strange atmosphere flowing between Lu Hongxiu and Xiao Zhe.
The people have finally gathered.
At this time, it is only in the outer layer of the Heavenly Void Realm, and there are very few cases of various sects and even scattered cultivators plotting and killing each other, and at this time, they are all looking for an entrance to the inner layer, and only the more they enter it, the greater the chance of encountering good things.
"Now that we're all here, let's head to the inner layer." Then Di Yongchang told him about the discovery of the entrance.
Several people followed Di Yongchang, and when they were close to the entrance, Di Yongchang withdrew the formation, and the entrance with a yellow light was revealed.
In order to prevent other teams from quickly entering the inner layer through this entrance, after Xiao Zhe and Lou Zheng and a few people went in first, Di Yongchang restored the formation and entered the entrance with a flashing yellow light.
In a flash, everyone was in a dense forest.
This is the fourth layer of the Heavenly Realm.
The environment here is the most suitable for the growth of the Celestial Void Grass, and it is possible that they will encounter large tracts of Celestial Void Grass.
And the highest-level demon beast encountered by the predecessors here was only a fifth-level demon beast.
The fifth-level demon beast is equivalent to the cultivation of the middle stage of the human monk Jindan, and for the five-person team where Lou Zheng is located, he is not afraid.
Sure enough, the records in the seniors' codex were correct, and the team of five had just walked for a quarter of an hour when they found four or five Heavenly Void Grasses under a tree.
It seems that this place is really suitable for the growth of Tianxu grass.
After picking these Tianxu grasses, several people continued to walk into the depths of the dense forest.
The depths of the dense forest are surprisingly quiet, and even the sound of a fallen leaf falling to the ground is infinitely amplified.
This eerie silence makes the heart tremble with fear.
Suddenly, Di Yongchang and Lu Hongxiu both took a step forward and reminded: "Be careful, there are people in front." ”
Several people took out their weapons and slowly approached in the direction of the human voice, and when they got closer, even Lu Hongxiu, who was usually calm, showed surprise.
I saw that in front of the field of vision was a spiritual field, the spiritual field was full of Tianxu grass, and the plants were more than 100 years old, and it was roughly estimated that there were about 1,000 Tianxu grass in this spiritual field, not only Tianxu grass, but also several thousand years of spiritual plants.
If you can get this piece of Heavenly Void Grass, then this time the Tianyun Sect's color head will definitely be included in the bag.
Moreover, hundreds of years of Heavenly Void Grass are already rare, and any one of them will be sold at the auction house, and I am afraid it will cost thousands of high-grade spirit stones.
In the face of such a great temptation, few people can remain calm.
It's a pity that when Lou Zheng's team arrived, there were already two teams of people next to the Tianxu Grass Spirit Field in front of them.
And these two teams are obviously in the same group, and they happen to be from the Di family.
Before they came, the two teams were discussing how to divide this spiritual field, and before they could discuss it, they saw an uninvited guest.
And among them, there is Di Yongchang, the group of people from the Di family, who immediately stood on the united front.
A burly man walked out of the opposite team, and if you look closely, you can still find that this burly man is still somewhat similar to Di Yongchang.
"I thought it was someone who touched the shit luck and entered the fourth floor, it turned out to be the only seedling of the uncle's family!" The man taunted as he ordered the bread to be taken from behind them, as if he were afraid that they would escape.
Di Yongchang frowned and looked at the burly male cultivator who looked a little like him opposite, and whispered to the people in his team.
"This is Di Yongping, the second son of my third uncle, Jin Dan cultivated in the later stage, he was born with divine power, you have to be careful." Di Yongchang briefly told them the identities of the rest of these people.
It seems that when they met here, the Di family was two teams again, and it was too late for them to leave at this time.
These two teams are not all from the Di family, and two of them are not from the Di family, and they may have been summoned for a lot of money. A few others were selected from the collateral line.
The leaders of the two teams are roughly Di Yongping, the second eldest of the third room of the Di family, Di Yongchun, the third eldest of the fifth room of the Di family, and Di Yongqi, the side of the Di family.
These three people are all in the late stage of Jindan, and two of them are also in the late stage of Jindan, and the rest are uneven, most of them are the strength of the early stage of Jindan.
The current patriarch of the Di family is biased towards the three rooms of the Di family, and all of them are in the Di family, and Di Yongping is the most arrogant.
The second room of the big house is a rope, but the heirs of the big house are thin, only Di Yongchang is alone, and the second room is even more exaggerated, only the second uncle of the Di family who followed Di Yongchang is alone.
Di Yongchang's second uncle was obsessed with cultivation, but his qualifications were not the best, in order to cultivate, he even delayed marrying a wife and having children, and when he became a great power, the form in the family had already been formed, and he was powerless to recover it by himself.
That's why he follows Di Yongchang all the time to keep him safe.
According to the rules of the Di family, the next patriarch should be Di Yongchang's father, but Di Yongchang's father has been in retreat for a hundred years in order to impact the Yuan Baby, and there is no news of the customs to this day, many people rumor that his father has already died in Guanzhong, so, according to the order, the position of the patriarch will fall on Di Yongchang.
If you want to inherit the position of the patriarch, you must reach the Yuan Baby, and Di Yongchang is now in the late stage of Jindan, as long as there is an adventure in the Heavenly Void Realm this time, the possibility of advancing the Yuan Infant is very large, once he really shapes the baby, unites the second uncle of the second room, and applies to the Council of Elders, and the current patriarch will not abdicate.
And if the three-room, four-room, and five-room want to rise, they can only take this opportunity to eradicate Di Yongchang, and now the patriarch can still protect these rooms, once Di Yongchang takes power, the Di family will definitely change.
That's why these people hate Di Yongchang so much and want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. (To be continued......)
