Chapter 2 The Secret Treasure of the Poison Pool

Xuanyi remembered that in his previous life, he once visited the West Lake, and the local tour guide once jokingly said that if a person accidentally fell into the middle of the West Lake, it would not be the lake water that was terrible, but the silt accumulated at the bottom of the lake for thousands of years.

As for what is wrapped in the mud, maybe it is swords, guns, swords, halberds, or copper coins and silver coins, after countless dynasties, it is not known that there are really treasures of the previous dynasty at the bottom of the West Lake.

According to rumors in the rivers and lakes, the poison pool not far in front of him existed before the Huanyu Sword Sect was established, and its history is hundreds of years. The water flowing through the pond is turquoise like slime.

Obviously, this poisonous pool is a dead pool, and the pool is stagnant water, but according to historical records, this poisonous pool has never dried up, no matter how the climate and environment change, the water in the pool will always maintain a rough height, and the dissatisfaction will not overflow.

The path that entered the poison pool from the front was already under the close surveillance of the secret guards of the Xichuan Palace, and it was impossible for Xuanyi to sneak in openly. He had to look around, there was an extremely steep cliff on the side of the path, and if he could climb to it, he might be able to get a full view of the poison pool.

Xuanyi slowly retreated silently, and found another direction towards the cliff on his side.

The cliff is hundreds of meters high, like a long sword reaching into the sky, and the mountain is almost perpendicular to the ground. Xuanyi brushed aside the clumps and weeds, and finally came to the foot of the mountain, but found that there was no place to climb at all. If you perform light skills, you can only fly up a few feet, and your internal strength is not enough to support climbing upwards. Even if you keep recovering your internal power through your divine power, it's more difficult to actually implement it. If you miss the slightest mistake, the pool will fall off the rock wall, and your life will be lost.

Xuanyi struggled as he looked at the smooth rock wall, which was bare, with only some creeper-like vines entwined at the bottom.

Xuanyi's eyes couldn't help but light up, and a bold idea came to mind.

There is another technique that I have never used in the Book of Nature!

Xuanyi clicked on the profile interface, and the entanglement roots were impressively listed!

"Entwined Roots (Divine Level), auxiliary exercises, natural magic, mysterious magic that circulates in the Western Continent, uses magic to create a huge plant root whisker to entangle the target and cause continuous damage for 20 seconds, consuming 0.5 mana points per second, only effective in forest terrain. ”

The natural magic that can only be cast by the forest terrain! It's like dozing off and touching a pillow!

"Entwined roots!" Xuan Yi silently thought, and as the tip of his right finger surged with a burst of magical power, a huge gray-brown vine the thickness of an adult's arm burst out of the ground.

"Entangle the target! Rock wall in front of you!Traction!" Xuanyi issued a series of commands, and the vines flew and fluttered, one end of which quickly wrapped around the rock wall in front of him, and the other end wrapped around Xuanyi's elbow.

"Up!" Xuanyi's legs rushed up towards the rock wall, and the whole figure instantly rose several feet higher, and just as he was about to fall, another vine broke through the ground and wrapped around the higher rock wall according to Xuanyi's instructions.

Xuanyi removed the previous shorter vines and summoned new vines to wrap around the higher rock wall, and concocted Xuanyi to easily climb to the middle of the cliff according to the same method, and the mana value was consumed less than 5 points.

Xuanyi was still trying to climb here, but another group of uninvited guests came to the forest path on his side, but fortunately, the position chosen by Xuanyi was at the back of the path, so that he could climb up without being discovered.

There were more than 20 people in the black-clothed group, and the masked man at the head waved his hand violently, and the entire team instantly stood still.

"Everyone stand by and wait for the dark ghost to report back information!" The man in charge ordered in a deep voice, and the entire squad immediately spread out in a fan shape, and the group disappeared in an instant and hid in place, showing extremely strict discipline.

After a while, a cloud of black smoke rose under a tree in the forest, and a short man probed his head to show his figure, he was not masked, and his appearance was actually a dark ghost who had a night chase with Xuanyi a few days ago.

The dark ghost cautiously looked around and confirmed that no one was following him, and then whispered: "Lord Dark King, there are four masters of the Xichuan Royal Mansion hidden in the woods in front of you, and the others have not yet been seen. ”

The man named the Dark King fell lightly from a certain tree, and he nodded slightly: "Are you sure that there are only four people on guard?"

The dark ghost nodded desperately: "My lord, I will never be mistaken, I have sensed it all within a radius of five hundred meters in this forest, in addition to the three masters of the Xichuan Royal Mansion who are hiding in the trees, there is also one person hiding in an underground pit, if it weren't for my sensitive perception, I almost missed him." At this, the dark ghost's face couldn't help but be a little proud.

The Dark King's eyes surged with murderous intent, and a few words popped out from between his teeth: "Lead the way, let me first cut off these minions of the King of Xichuan for His Highness!"

The dark ghost trembled with fright, and without saying a word, quickly led the dark king and his party to the grove in front of him.

Luo Guangsheng hid most of his body in the dense canopy, as the most elite secret guard in the armed forces of the Xichuan Palace, in addition to more than 20 years of hard training day after day, he also had a tenacious character and a willingness to serve the Xichuan King.

In order to reduce the weight of this operation, all the palace guards were wearing half-body light armor, Luo Guangsheng squatted motionless on the branches, the center of gravity of the whole person was perfectly controlled on the soles of the two forefeet, and the branches that carried his weight could even gently swing up and down with the wind.

Luo Guangsheng held the Shenhou crossbow produced by Xiangmen and stared at the way he came closely, even if an unknown insect was falling on his arm at this time, the bite could not distract him from the slightest.

The scorching mountain breeze blew by, but it did not bring a trace of coolness, but blew the sweat on Luo Guangsheng's forehead into his eyes, Luo Guangsheng blinked, relieving the soreness in his eyes.

At this moment, a slight sound sounded!

"Hum!" Luo Guangsheng instinctively moved his body sideways, and a short arrow roared and pierced deep into his thigh. The triangular arrow quickly tore through its wound in a terrifying opening.

As soon as Luo Guangsheng grasped the handle of the arrow, a sharp pain came from his heart.

"Damn, this is a combination arrow, and there are barbs on it!" Luo Guangsheng scolded secretly and gave up the plan to pull out the arrow. With a knife in his left hand and a Shenhou crossbow in his right, he pushed aside the branches of the tree and searched for the incoming enemy in an attempt to return fire.

The tree below him trembled, and a heavy chopping sound came down the trunk. Luo Guangsheng didn't say a word, picked up the crossbow and shot it under the tree, a box of crossbow arrows quickly shot out, and there were a few muffled snorts from under the tree, but the sound of cutting the tree continued to sound after a short pause.

Luo Guangsheng climbed the branch and jumped towards the neighboring tree, and the tree below him fell after a few seconds.
