Chapter 233: Twenty Ways to Kill You
Spitting mirage and transforming the world is the innate talent of the Mirage Demon Toad. Once caught in their mirage, the mirage will conjure up various means to attack according to their minds, which is very difficult to deal with.
However, the fifth-level Mirage Demon Toad is still in its infancy, and the world it has conjured up is not complete enough. As long as they can find the flaws in the mirage they have conjured, they will not be affected by the mirage.
According to the detailed records of the underground world, the purple weeds in this valley are actually the flaws in the mirage conjured up by the mirage toad.
As long as you step on the purple weeds every step of the way, you can be sure that you will not fall into the illusion.
Qin Chuan knew very well that the Mirage Demon Toad belonged to an inherently powerful demon beast. Even if the fifth-level demon toad only belonged to the juvenile stage, it was far from being something that the foundation building stage cultivators could fight. Therefore, after stepping out of the swamp and into the valley, he did not dare to be careless, and every step was firmly on the purple weed.
And the rest of the elders of the Feather Sect, with Qin Chuan's previous advice, were also cautious, following Qin Chuan's steps at every step, stepping on the purple weeds.
The further you go into the valley, the more beautiful the scenery becomes. Secretly is a clear sky, floating white clouds, and lush weeds at your feet, with flowers flourishing and competing for beauty. A breeze blows, flowers sway, and forest brushes rattle, and it is completely a quiet paradise.
Not only is the vegetation forested, but in the wild grass, there are even small beasts walking by from time to time. Everything seems so real.
Several elders of the Feather Sect walked in it, looking at this quiet and peaceful scene, and they all felt that it was simply incredibleβwas this valley really just an illusionary world?
However, surprise is surprise, since it was said by the head Qin Chuan himself, then they naturally would not have the slightest suspicion. They all followed closely behind Qin Chuan, constantly advancing forward.
When the people of Yuhuamen walked into the valley under the guidance of Qin Chuan, the five-person group of the Tongtian Sword Sect who followed behind them began to discuss with each other:
"There's a valley with such a good environment? It's incredible! Han Yiming said in disbelief as he looked at the charming scenery in the valley.
"Yes. It is not unusual to have such a valley in the Kunxu Mountains. But here is the abyss, deep underneath the earth! Mo Buli also said with a mustache shaking his chin. The world of the void has always been synonymous with coldness, darkness, and desolation. Mo Buli and the other five people have all survived in this world for decades, but they have never seen such a beautiful scenery in the abyss.
Ding Dashun said: "This valley is indeed beautiful and weird. If things are abnormal, there must be demons, and I look at this valley, which is very strange! β
"The people from the Feather Gate have already walked in, so what should we do? To keep up or not to keep up? Several elders looked at each other a few times and asked Chen Yuanyang together.
"For so many years, we haven't experienced any strong winds and waves, how can we be scared away by a mere valley? The group of fat sheep in front of them is pregnant with three spiritual weapons! For the sake of the spiritual weapon, even if it is worth taking some risks. Besides, there are people from the Feather Gate taking the lead, even if the situation is really wrong, we just turn around and run. "Seeing that half of the mission time of the Feather Gate has been consumed, as long as you hold on to the remaining half of the time, the Feather Gate will definitely die at that time. Chen Yuanyang naturally refused to give up halfway, made a decision, and continued to follow Yuhuamen.
Several elders were already coveting the magic weapon of the spirit weapon level, and they felt that what Chen Yuanyang said also made sense. Even if the situation was not good, it should still be too late to turn around and run, so without further hesitation, he followed out of the swamp and into the valley.
Unfortunately, none of them knew anything related to the Mirage Toad. casually walked into the valley, and did not walk on those purple weeds like Qin Chuan and the others.
Just a few steps away, a sudden change occurred. On the valley, the original sunny and sunny climate changed in an instant, and I don't know from which direction a large dark cloud floated in, completely obscuring the sun, and the sunny valley soon became gloomy.
"Strange, why did the sky suddenly become cloudy? Don't you think something is wrong? Han Yiming looked up at the increasingly dense rain in the sky, and said worriedly.
Chen Yuanyang was very unhappy when he said this, and said coldly: "Elder Han, if I remember correctly, you are already over a hundred years old, right?" It's just cloudy, and it's worth all the fuss? β
Han Yiming smiled wryly, quickly lowered his head, and no longer paid attention to the dark clouds in the sky. The five of them formed a group and continued to follow in the footsteps of the Feather Gate.
They didn't know that when they walked by, the grass, trees, mountains and rocks behind them had quietly and silently undergone tremendous changes. The original colorful flowers, lush grass and trees, and strange-shaped stones were blown by the mountain wind, and they turned into strange black gas little by little, spreading to the sky continuously.
It is the black smoke formed by the transformation of various plants and rocks, and the black clouds that gradually condense in the sky. It's a pity that the plants turned into black gas, completely silent, and the people of the Tongtian Sword Sect paid attention to the movements of the Feather Gate in front of them wholeheartedly, and they didn't notice it at all.
At this time, if they look back, they will find that the beautiful valley they have walked along the way has completely disappeared by this time, and in its place are bare rocks and dead trees, strange and desolate.
After walking forward for a while, Ding Dashun, who was quite familiar with the elixir, suddenly stared at a small red flower in front of him, and exclaimed in great surprise: "Saloman flower!" Saloma flowers! It is one of the elixirs necessary for refining Tsukidan - Saloman Flower! β
While shouting, he rushed forward in three steps and two steps, and trampled the salomanflower in his hand.
Leaning on the tip of his nose and carefully examining it for a while, Ding Dashun said in a more joyful voice: "Master, this is actually a century-old saloman flower, which is used to refine Zhuji Dan, which fully meets the requirements!" β
Chen Yuanyang and several other elders, although they were not as proficient in elixir knowledge as Ding Dashun, were still very familiar with refining several elixirs for Zhuji Dan. When I looked around, it was indeed the fire surname elixir that fully met the requirements of the year - Saloman Flower.
Everyone couldn't help but have a burst of information in their hearts, the elixir of Saloman Flower is not only rare, but also extremely survivable, and can grow for more than a hundred years, which is very rare. With such an elixir, in Central City, you can buy at least five or six hundred lower-grade spirit stones!
Unexpectedly, while following the oppression of the Feather Gate all the way, he could actually get an extra income!
Chen Yuanyang was very happy in his heart, withdrew his gaze from the saloman, looked around again, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he walked to the front and picked up another plant.
"Look at what this is!" Chen Yuanyang said to everyone in an extremely excited tone.
Everyone gathered around to take a look, and they were surprised and delighted: "It's beetle snake grass!" More than 100 years old beetle snake grass! β
Teng Snake Grass, the elixir of the soil surname, is also one of the essential elixir raw materials for refining Zhuji Dan. Although it is not as valuable as the Saloman flower, it is also a very rare and valuable elixir.
"In this valley, it seems to be very conducive to the growth of elixir, let's look around, there are any other elixirs!" After Chen Yuanyang put away the Teng Snake Grass, he immediately issued an order to the other four elders.
The elixir that is more than a hundred years old is originally very valuable, especially the elixir that can be used to refine the Zhuji Dan, the value is even more valuable.
In an old sect like the Tongtian Sword Sect, among the disciples of the sect, there are many people who have reached the Great Perfection of the Qi Cultivation Period and can impact the Foundation Building Period, but the Foundation Building Dan is extremely lacking. If you can collect enough elixir here, whether you can refine the Tsukidan by yourself or sell the elixir to make money, it is a good choice.
Sure enough, this valley did not disappoint Chen Yuanyang. After several elders dispersed, after a little searching, they immediately found one rare elixir after another:
"There's an ice grass here, and a seven-leaf sawgrass plant!"
"I have a silver snake tree here, and there are a lot of ripe ambergris fruits growing on the tree!"
"Come to me, come to me! I've got a lot of salromans all over here! β
The voices of the elders came and went, and each of them sent one excellent message after another to his companions, and the smiles of happiness that were almost dizzy filled everyone's faces.
"Incredible, incredible! This valley is not a valley at all, it is a treasure trove! Han Yiming sighed again and again while picking a large number of ambergris fruits from the tree.
"Yes! Oh, yes! Those fools in Yuhuamen must not know any elixir at all, they only know that they will bury their heads and move forward, and all the wealth here will be left to us for exclusive enjoyment! When Mo Buli spoke, the goatee on his chin trembled very badly, and his old face was already full of wrinkles.
In his heart, he couldn't help but secretly think that the precious son in charge of the house was really worth dying! If he hadn't died at the hands of the surnamed Qin, this valley full of treasures would not have been discovered by the Tongtian Sword Sect!
With this elixir all over the ground, whether it is sold for spirit stones or used to assist in cultivation, the benefits to oneself are immeasurable. Even, I can take this opportunity to enter the middle stage of foundation building and extend my life again!
"Don't you think you're rejoicing too soon? Who is a fool or not! At this moment, Qin Chuan's cold voice suddenly sounded in the ears of everyone in the Tongtian Sword Sect.
Chen Yuanyang was shocked when he heard this, raised his head suddenly, and found that Qin Chuan, who had been rushing in front of him, didn't know when, actually came to him.
This made Chen Yuanyang feel surprised for a while. With his own cultivation, it is impossible for him to be invaded around his body by the people of the Feather Sect without realizing it. What's going on?
However, at this moment, most of Chen Yuanyang's attention was already on the elixir everywhere, and he didn't think deeply, but while repeatedly instructing the elders to step up the collection of elixir, he hurriedly threatened: "The surname Qin, the elixir in this valley was discovered by our Tongtian Sword Sect first, and you are not allowed to pick any of them!" Otherwise, the consequences are severe! β
A thick look of mockery appeared on Qin Chuan's face, and he said lightly: "Don't worry, don't worry, pick it slowly." We, the Feather Gate, will never compete with you for a single plant or tree in this valley. β
"Hmph, count yourself as acquaintances! Hurry up and pick the medicine, don't miss a single plant! While urging the elders, Chen Yuanyang secretly despised them in his heart: "It must be someone from the Feather Sect, who doesn't know the important value of these elixirs at all, and just treats them as ordinary herbs." β
Thinking like this, he couldn't hold back his excitement in his heart: "After completely collecting the elixir in this valley, even if you don't refine the Zhuji Dan yourself and sell it all, it will be enough to add tens of thousands of pieces to the Tongtian Sword Sect's income from hundreds of thousands of spirit stones!" That's a windfall! β
Seeing that the corners of Chen Yuan's eyebrows and mouth were full of happiness that the pie in the sky was smashed, the mockery in Qin Chuan's eyes became even stronger, his arms were folded in front of his chest, and he said leisurely: "Master Chen, don't just dream of making a fortune." I advise you to take a good look at what you have picked in your hands, what is it? β
Chen Yuanyang couldn't help frowning, what does this surnamed Qin mean? I was puzzled in my heart, but I still subconsciously lowered my head and looked at the three or five ambergris fruits in my hand.
Who knows, under this look, Deng Shi jumped in shock. There was no ambergris fruit in his hand at all, and what he was holding tightly was a few black and hard broken stones!
What's going on? Those red and lovely ambergris fruits were picked from the silver snake tree by themselves, and how could they all turn into black stones in the blink of an eye?
While shocked, Chen Yuanyang poured mana into the storage bag and took out all the ambergris fruits that had just been put in.
It didn't matter, he was completely dumbfounded. In the storage bag, there was not even a single ambergris fruit, all of them were cold, black and tattered rocks!
This abnormal change not only shocked Chen Yuanyang, but the other elders of the Tongtian Sword Sect were also surprised and confused after seeing it.
They couldn't help but lower their heads and look at the elixir in their hands.
Suddenly, several elders who were still smiling just now, thinking that they were going to make a windfall, all screamed in shock, and while jumping around, they frantically shook their hands and threw out the things in their hands.
It turned out that what happened to them was the same as Chen Yuanyang, and the elixir that they had just picked up as a treasure had all disappeared without a trace, and in their place were all kinds of poisonous insects. There are writhing and hissing poisonous snakes, toads covered in pimples and slime, centipedes with countless hands and feet, scorpions with poisonous tails constantly flicking, and so on.
Not only is it terrifying in his hands, but the things that come out of the storage bag are even more disgusting. Those beautiful elixirs have all turned into Yaksha's tongues, teeth, and even eyeballs!
Looking at the things that I regarded as treasures, I turned out to be a bunch of such things. Even though these cultivators of the Tongtian Sword Sect had all gone through hundreds of years of cultivation and were very strong in their hearts, they couldn't help but bend down and retch.
"Haha, haha, hahaha!" Seeing their shocked and painful posture, Qin Chuan finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst into a burst of laughter.
With the hint of the detailed map of the underground world in advance, Qin Chuan certainly knew that the elixir all over the ground actually didn't exist at all, and it was all made up of the mirage qi spit out by the Mirage Demon Toad. The people of the Tongtian Sword Sect were collecting like this, but they had actually fallen into a terrifying illusion.
Of course, poisonous insects, rotten meat, etc., are not terrible, but the truly terrible ones will come soon!
"The surname is Qin, is all this your ghost? Although you are proud now, sooner or later, I will make you pay a thousand times the price! β
Being fooled by others, this is still a trivial matter, the originally incomparably beautiful dream of making a fortune has turned into a bubble, this is what makes Chen Yuanyang the most unbearable. If it weren't for the restraint of the three-year protection period for new members of the Immortal Dao Alliance, he would have pounced on it by now and bit Qin Chuan into a pile of minced meat with his teeth.
However, Chen Yuanyang's hideous appearance did not frighten Qin Chuan, but made Qin Chuan's heart more comfortable and comfortable. Along the way, the five members of the Tongtian Sword Sect were arrogant and proud, and they couldn't wait to ride on the necks of everyone in the Yuhua Gate. Now, their retribution is coming!
"Chen Yuanyang, who is in charge of doing things, has always planned and then acted. If you dare to kill your son, you will be told plainly, and you will not be taken seriously at all! Although at present, the strength of your Tongtian Sword Sect is indeed above our Feather Sect. But when it comes to really making a move, there are at least twenty ways to play you to death! β
"Kill me? With your little cultivation, it's still far away! Even if you have a plot and a trick, Lao Tzu is confident enough to cut you under the sword at the last moment! Chen Yuanyang roared angrily, and the long sword behind his back suddenly came out of its sheath and flew into the air, the tip of the sword trembled, like a poisonous snake, about to choose someone to devour.
"Boss, you can't do it directly!" Ding Dashun, who was next to him, was taken aback when he saw Qin Chuan draw his sword, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
Mo Buli also hurriedly said: "Yes, master, if you make a move, you will definitely die, and you must not be carried away by anger!" I think this surnamed Qin does have a conspiracy, so let's withdraw first. New hatred and old hatred, let's avenge it together! β
Qin Chuan sneered twice and said, "Do you want to withdraw?" Unfortunately, it's already too late! You might as well look back and see if there is any way for you to evacuate! β
Chen Yuanyang listened to Qin Chuan's words, turned around suddenly, and at this glance, he felt a cool breath rushing from the soles of his feet to the back of his head - when he came, the scene of grass and flowers everywhere had all disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a complete piece of craggy strange rocks and towering barren mountains. The rocks are like dogs' teeth intertwined, densely covered behind him, and there is no path to pass.
