Chapter 51: The Ethereal Valley Gains Two Treasures
The old man in colorful clothes looked at Zhao Xiaofeng for a long time, and finally said, "The entrance of my black water cave is in the Ethereal Valley of the Shenzhou Continent, but no one has been able to leave here alive until now. The first master of the Ethereal Valley, his martial arts cultivation reached the middle stage of the Divine Spirit Realm, but when he entered my mansion, it turned out to be just a dead word. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng was secretly surprised, the cultivators in the middle stage of the Divine Spirit Realm would all die, so how perverted would the martial arts cultivation of this mysterious old man in colorful clothes reach. Zhao Xiaofeng thought of the legendary God Realm!
The old man in colorful clothes suddenly smiled: "You may be a special case, not only will I not kill you, but I will also help you." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng also smiled, he didn't speak, in this case, it's better not to speak.
The old man in colorful clothes suddenly asked: "I know that you want to obtain the inheritance orb of the Ethereal Valley, but if you want to get the inheritance orb, you have to defeat the valley master of the Ethereal Valley." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask, "What is the origin of the valley master of this Ethereal Valley?"
The old man in colorful clothes smiled: "This Ethereal Valley Lord is actually not a human being, but a 10,000-year-old corpse fruit that has been cultivated for hundreds of millions of years. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng was surprised: "Ten Thousand Year Corpse Fruit?"
The old man in colorful clothes nodded: "People say that the red lotus of the bath fire, the snow grass of the cold ditch, and the 10,000-year-old corpse fruit are the top ingredients of the Ethereal Valley, but in fact, those 10,000-year-old corpse fruits in the Ethereal Valley are just fakes made by the Ethereal Valley Lord, and there is only one real 10,000-year-old corpse fruit, and that is the true body of the Ethereal Valley Lord." It's just that those fakes of 10,000-year-old corpse fruits do have the wonderful effect of bringing the dead back to life. But if you eat the 10,000-year-old corpse fruit of the Ethereal Valley Lord, you will be controlled by him for the rest of your life and become his appendage. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng listened in surprise.
The old man in colorful clothes said: "This ethereal valley lord has to sleep once every two hundred and eighty years, in order to gather energy, and it will be resurrected after nine hundred and eighty-one years of dormancy. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask: "I don't know how far the Ethereal Valley Lord's martial arts cultivation has improved now?"
The old man in colorful clothes said: "I have reached the late stage of the Venerable Spirit Realm, and the next resurrection, it is possible to advance to the Divine Spirit Realm." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng secretly took a breath of cold air: "Such a strong person, if he attacks, I, Zhao Xiaofeng, may not even have the slightest chance." What kind of way can you think of to take away the Ethereal Valley's Inheritance Orb?"
The old man in colorful clothes seemed to see through Zhao Xiaofeng's thoughts: "If you want to take away the inheritance orb of the Ethereal Valley, the only way is to defeat the Ethereal Valley Lord." Because the inheritance orb is the core of the 10,000-year-old corpse fruit. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng was taken aback: "The true body of the Ethereal Valley Lord is the Ten Thousand Year Corpse Fruit, that is to say, the inheritance orb is the heart of the Ethereal Valley Lord! Thinking like this, Zhao Xiaofeng couldn't help frowning.
The old man in colorful clothes smiled: "Didn't I say just now, when you arrive at my black water hole, not only will I not kill you, but I will also help you." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask, "Why are you helping me?"
The old man in colorful clothes smiled mysteriously: "Because I'm happy!"
Zhao Xiaofeng had no choice but to smile, he didn't ask again, he knew that even if he asked again, the old man wouldn't say anything.
The old man in colorful clothes suddenly said: "This Ethereal Valley Lord's martial arts cultivation is indeed much higher than yours, but he has a fatal flaw. ”
Zhao Xiaofeng hurriedly asked, "What is the fatal shortcoming?"
The old man in colorful clothes said: "He is afraid of fire!"
Zhao Xiaofeng's spirit was lifted, and he immediately thought of the Blood Flame Divine Sword on his back.
The old man in colorful clothes said leisurely: "Your Blood Flame Divine Sword is an attack-type superb artifact, and it is indeed a rare weapon in the world, but unfortunately, your martial arts cultivation is still very low, and the true power of the Blood Flame Divine Sword cannot be brought into play." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng muttered, "It's really a pity. ”
The old man in colorful clothes said: "Let me tell you a way to make your Blood Flame Divine Sword more powerful." ”
Zhao Xiaofeng hurriedly asked, "What method?"
The old man in colorful clothes said: "This ethereal valley is rich in two rare ingredients, one is called the red lotus of the bath fire, and the other is called the cold ditch snow grass. These two ingredients are mutually reinforcing, and if you eat them, although it is painful, it can make your martial arts cultivation increase by a hundred times in an instant. It's just that that kind of martial arts cultivation increase is only an instantaneous thing, and your martial arts cultivation will return to its original state. Therefore, you must seize that momentary opportunity in extreme pain and kill the Ethereal Valley Master on the spot, otherwise, you will die under the sword of your opponent. He paused, and then said, "Don't have the slightest mercy for you to kill the Ethereal Valley Lord, because over the years, thousands of people have died tragically at his hands, and to kill this person is to eliminate harm for the people and do the right thing for heaven!"
Zhao Xiaofeng bit his lip and only said one word: "Okay!" He turned around and was about to leave.
The old man in colorful clothes smiled: "Where are you going! This is my black water hole, without my help, you will not be able to get out for the rest of your life." As he spoke, he suddenly waved his arm.
Zhao Xiaofeng only felt that the world was spinning, and his body was wrapped in a strange object. After a few moments, everything was back to normal. Zhao Xiaofeng was surprised to find that he had returned to the Ethereal Valley.
In front of him, there was a fog, and there seemed to be a fire flickering not far away.
Through the thick mist, Zhao Xiaofeng saw it very clearly, it was not a flickering fire, but a red lotus that burned like a fire!
Is this the fiery red lotus of the Ethereal Valley?
Zhao Xiaofeng walked over cautiously.
The red lotus does not grow in pools, but on hard rocks. The color of the rocks here is also strange, it is actually pink.
There are hundreds of red lotuses here, but Zhao Xiaofeng only picked three beads!
Zhao Xiaofeng carefully placed the Red Lotus in his arms.
In the next step, his target is Hangou Yukiso.
Just when Zhao Xiaofeng was looking around blankly, he suddenly found that a black object fell in mid-air, and before he could see clearly, the black object had already arrived in front of him.
The black dragon, the black object turned out to be a black dragon!
This black dragon is the black dragon in the black water cave!
When Zhao Xiaofeng was surprised, the black dragon spun in front of him, and then flew straight in one direction, it didn't fly fast, as if it was waiting for Zhao Xiaofeng.
Zhao Xiaofeng flew up and chased straight over......
After chasing for an unknown amount of time, the black dragon in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Zhao Xiaofeng was looking for it with his head tilted, and the soles of his feet stepped on the air, and the whole person fell into the ditch.
The ditch was very deep, and a cold air hit straight up.
With Zhao Xiaofeng's martial arts cultivation, he will not fall to death. The other person was in the air, and suddenly swooped down towards the ditch wall, and his thin and thin body stuck to the ditch wall like a gecko.
The light in the ditch was dim, and it was even darker under the ditch. Although the cold here is not as strong as the cold of the Black Water Cave, it is unbearable after a long time.
Why did the black dragon bring himself here? Zhao Xiaofeng looked at the bottom of the ditch, and he immediately remembered the cold ditch snow grass.
Could it be that this is where the snow grass grows?
Zhao Xiaofeng slid down the wall of the ditch, and soon he slipped to the bottom of the ditch.
As Zhao Xiaofeng expected, the bottom of the ditch was covered with snow-white grass.
Although the bottom of the ditch was pitch black, at such a close distance, with Zhao Xiaofeng's keen eyesight, he could still see clearly.
As the name suggests, it is indeed snow-white!
Zhao Xiaofeng picked three handfuls of Hangou Snow Grass and carefully put them in his arms. He didn't expect to get the two treasures of the Ethereal Valley so easily. Zhao Xiaofeng knew that if it weren't for the help of the old man in colorful clothes and the black dragon, he might still be wandering around in the Ethereal Valley, and it was unknown whether he could find these two treasures in the end.
Who is the mysterious old man in colorful clothes in the black water cave? Why does he stay in the black water cave and never come out? All this, like the thick fog of this ethereal valley, is unpredictable.
Zhao Xiaofeng walked out of the cold ditch, and when he looked back again, the cold ditch just now magically disappeared from the ground.
A thick fog floated on the ground, and Zhao Xiaofeng also stood there in confusion, as if he had just had a dream. What's going on? Zhao Xiaofeng couldn't figure it out.
Zhao Xiaofeng walked back and stepped on the ground just now, but there was no reaction on the solid ground.
Suddenly there was a scream in the thick fog. One, two...... The voice was getting closer and closer, and in a blink of an eye, it was in front of Zhao Xiaofeng.
Zhao Xiaofeng retreated to the side.
A figure staggered over, its pale face covered in blood. He ran to Zhao Xiaofeng and fell to the ground one by one.
Zhao Xiaofeng was taken aback because he knew this person. The man who fell to the ground was actually a sorrowful man.
Sorrowful Dalang fell to the ground, already dying.
As soon as Chou Dalang fell, three people appeared ghostly in the thick fog. These three people turned out to be the brothers of Chou Dalang, the red-faced man Jiang Ling, the black-faced man Luo Tian, and the purple-faced man Hongqiao.
Zhao Xiaofeng looked at the three people coldly.
These three people also saw Zhao Xiaofeng.
Zhao Xiaofeng didn't speak, but his hand had already grasped the hilt of the Blood Flame Divine Knife.
The three men were backing up, taking a few dozen steps back before turning around and running away screaming. They never dreamed that Zhao Xiaofeng would be able to leave the Black Water Cave alive. They clearly remembered that the Ethereal Valley Lord had said that the old Valley Lord's martial arts cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Divine Spirit Realm, and he would not be able to leave the Black Water Cave alive. What kind of ability does this Zhao Xiaofeng have to escape death? They don't know anything else, but they have all seen Zhao Xiaofeng's Blood Flame Divine Sword. Sorrowful Dalang couldn't resist Zhao Xiaofeng's Blood Flame Divine Sword, let alone them!
Zhao Xiaofeng didn't chase after him, he leaned down and probed the sorrowful Dalang's snort.
If the snort is absent, the breath is like a gossamer. It seems that Sorrow Dalang is not lightly injured.
Just when Zhao Xiaofeng just wanted to urge the Heavenly Heart Bead to heal the wounds of Chou Dalang, three black things suddenly flew from the thick fog. A strong smell of blood spread through the thick fog......
