Volume 19 Penglai Chapter 26 Danger lurks

Connecting this small world and the great wilderness is a black crack that is constantly twisting. This is a rift in time and space that tends to connect different worlds.

Around this crack, a lot of man-made traces can be seen. It can be seen that many monks have set up camp here one after another, studying what to do next—but they are no longer there, and I wonder if they are looking for treasure. Or is it already fully loaded? Or...... They have slept somewhere in this world, never to return.

Wu Xie and the others also rested here for a while, observing and studying the routes and directions of the forerunners, so as to decide which way they were going to go.

This small world is very large, and the explorers who left alive have traveled as far as 100,000 miles, but none of them have found the edge of the world.

For treasure hunting, such a large small world is more than enough.

Wu Xie Shennian looked at it, and he could see clearly the range of thousands of miles, and he found that the number of treasure hunters going in all directions was actually about the same, and he could see that the opportunities in all directions here should be about the same.

But when he slowly concentrated his divine thoughts into a bundle, like a long detection antenna, slowly swept across the range of three thousand miles, and carefully searched for all kinds of clues in these three thousand miles, he found that in some directions, although there were many traces of the monks leaving, there were far fewer traces of returning.

This means that those directions may be more dangerous than expected, or they may be more than unexpected treasures.

In the case of the former, the treasure hunter is naturally left out by those dangers; In the latter case, the treasure hunter will naturally die from the fire after the discovery of the treasure - but for those who die, the two are actually similar, whether natural or man-made, horizontal and vertical.

Of course, this is very different for Wu Jie. If it was the former, it would put many treasure hunters in danger of not returning, and he didn't plan to take it. He came here mainly to accumulate external strength in exchange for the immortal magic method of this sect, and to continue his research, except for the first time, even if there were some rare treasures waiting for him, he did not plan to take risks.

Well, assuming there is something like Hongmeng Purple Qi, it is still worth the risk.

But if it's the latter, then it's necessary for Wu Xie to go over and take a look. Because he believed that among the people who came to explore this small world, there should not be many who could kill him.

With his current ability, he was almost completely invincible under the Yang God realm, and the onslaught that erupted with all his strength was enough to kill even the weaker Yang God True Immortals, and it was also enough to force back most of the Yang God True Immortals. As for those super-powerful True Immortals, or even the Cave Void True Monarch - it doesn't make much sense to consider a small probability event.

Wu Xie pondered for a long time, and finally decided to avoid the most dangerous direction, and chose to come back a little more, but it was still not a lot of directions.

The direction of too many people must have been searched out, although he is only here to lead the team, but he must be kind and honest, and he has the responsibility to help these outer disciples get enough harvest.

And those more dangerous places can also be used to help him do something......

Wu Xie told the outer disciples about his decision - of course he did not explain the reasons in detail, especially some inconvenient things inside - and when he learned that he was going to a place that was somewhat dangerous but not particularly dangerous, no one objected.

Well, in fact, it should be said that Wei Mingfeng has no objection.

In this treasure hunting team, Wei Mingfeng is the absolute authority. This outer disciple who took nearly 4,000 years to cultivate the Dao Fruit, had experienced more than twenty risky treasure hunts in his life, and he had brushed shoulders with death many times, but he came back every time—and he was able to bring back as many companions as he could every time.

If there is no latter condition, he will be the most unpopular treasure hunting partner, but with the last sentence, he is a very rare good captain, worthy of everyone's trust and dependence.

Generally speaking, the so-called "senior treasure hunter" is considered an elite if he has three treasure hunting experiences in his life, five treasure hunting experiences, or one or two greetings with death. Like Wei Mingfeng, he has been elite to the point of outrageous.

But his qualifications are really not good enough, even if he can gain something every time he hunts for treasures, it is not helpful enough for his cultivation. So until now, he still hasn't been able to clearly analyze his path to immortality, and he is still struggling to find an opportunity.

The eldest grandson's predecessor did not send Wu Xie the relevant information of these people, and these things were secretly recorded by an outer disciple with a jade slip and handed to him.

That disciple's name is Wang Shuang, and he has the same name as a well-known fierce general in the Three Kingdoms era on earth. But he was quite delicate in his work, and he was not at all silent when he passed the jade slip, and Wu Xie believed that others would never find out.

The information in the jade slip is quite detailed, and the origin and characteristics of everyone are clearly explained, with this, Wu Xie is more confident when managing them.

So he knew Wei Mingfeng's identity and ability, and he also trusted Wei Mingfeng's ability as a treasure hunting expert.

When Wei Mingfeng also expressed his agreement with Wu Xie's opinion, the matter was settled.

Under Wei Mingfeng's command, they connected the thirteen rays of light and connected them into one so that they could support each other at any time. Then he lowered the altitude of his flight, and went all the way at a really slow pace no more than a hundred feet from the ground.

This speed made some of the anxious people quite impatient, but Wei Mingfeng emphasized that it would ensure that they would not miss any clues on the road.

"More than once I have found something of value in a place that others have already searched, and this is called a leak, and it is the safest and most reliable way to hunt for treasure, and at least thirty percent of all the treasure hunts I have brought home in the past have come from leaks." He said.

Wu Xie believes that he is definitely not the only one who doubts this data. But he was in favor of this cautious approach—prudence was not a bad thing, especially for Wu Jie, who had the responsibility to bring back most of the outer disciples.

Facts have proved that Wei Mingfeng's "picking up leaks" is really a quite effective method. By the time they had finished their day's journey and camped to rest, they had found something worth at least the entire net worth of a Celestial Monk.

The person in charge of the appraisal is Wang Shuang, a cautious and careful person who has a good ability to distinguish between most things and a cross-border trading house in addition to practicing. If he encounters something that he can't identify, it's probably a rare treasure.

Let's say, the indestructible piece that was given to Wu Jie.

The shard was so strong that even Jasmine had to use spells to cut it. So after scratching a shallow scar on it, she decided to use this as a raw material to create a heart shield for Wu Jie.

"The heart is not my point." Wu explained, "I don't need any heart guards. ”

"But someone needs it." Jasmine said, "The most suitable thing for this thing is to make armor, and I'm sure it will be used." ”

Wu Xie was silent for a moment and smiled.

He hadn't smiled so happily in a long time, to the point of smiling, which was completely different from his usual calm and gentle smile.

"Master, why are you so happy?"

"Because you've finally started to think about others," Wu Xie sighed happily, "It's not easy."

It's not easy, it's been more than 500 years...... It's been almost 600 years, and you've finally started to think about others."

He sighed and rejoiced repeatedly, and even used his source power to conjure up a fountain out of thin air, in which all the finest wine gushed out.

"It's worth celebrating, it's worth celebrating, and you're going to get drunk today"

So he woke up Xiao Qi, who was cultivating in his sleep, called Du Ruo, who was trying to compress the yin qi in his body, called Ye Hong, who had been smiling and watching from the side, and even dragged the old turtle over from the beach.

"Today is a day of celebration, and we need to celebrate"

He celebrated not only inside the Heavenly Book World, but also outside - he gathered all the outer disciples who were about to rest, and then took out a wine jug, and poured out a huge amount of wine from it that was enough to intoxicate a demon beast.

"I suddenly figured out a difficulty in cultivation, in order to celebrate, let's have a good drink"

It's just a difficulty in figuring out a cultivation, as for being happy to be like this?

Outer disciples, you look at me, I look at you, looking at each other.

But in the end, they all joined the celebration party initiated by Wu Jie.

Wei Mingfeng was the last to drink, he originally wanted not to drink, and he was responsible for the vigil. But Wu Xie snapped his fingers, and Xue Feng appeared next to them in a mighty posture in a military uniform, and the Eight Extremes Divine Fire Pillar continued to emit terrifying flames, slowly rotating around her.

"Yukikaze, we're going to drink tonight. If anyone dares to attack, you will kill him. Wu Xie laughed loudly, "I approve you to use any means you see fit."

Xue Feng's eyes lit up slightly: "Does it include the Heavenly Emperor Array?" ”

"Includes"

"Including the Eight Extremes Divine Blade?"

"Includes"

"Does it include the Eight-Pole Combined Thunder Cannon?"

Wu Xie finally hesitated, but he finally nodded: "Including"

"I understand" Xue Feng's figure gradually faded away, and Wei Mingfeng clearly saw the look of excitement and anticipation on her face.

He was well-informed and knew that this was a very powerful magic weapon - judging from the breath on his body, he could see that it was the pinnacle of the Faxiang level, and even something that was almost at the level of heaven and man. And as the magic weapon of the Ice Peak Absolute Sword, it must have combat power far beyond its own realm. It's much more reliable to guard than your own vigil.

So he didn't hesitate anymore and drank heartily.

The more they drank, the happier they became, and at the end they sang while drinking, as if they were not here to hunt for treasures, but to have a picnic.

It wasn't until everyone was drunk that Wu Xie put down the cup and looked up at the night sky.

The wine banquet in the Heavenly Book World has also come to an end, except for the old turtle who is not visible and actually has a large number of people, the rest of the people are almost drunk.

"Finally...... I still had a good time. Wu Xie smiled, but sighed softly.

His gaze swept over the drunken and sleeping crowd and fell on three of them.

"If you don't take advantage of such a good opportunity, some people are really not worth looking forward to."

His smile was cold, completely devoid of the joy and warmth of the drink he had just had.

"I'll try to give you some more opportunities before the opportunity comes to me, but my gut tells me that you probably don't have what it takes to take it."

He performed a small teleportation trick to send everyone to their respective tents, and then sat by the campfire in the middle of the camp, watching the campfire for a long time.

"Demons who are extremely evil can sprout good thoughts of caring for others, but disciples from famous families on the righteous path don't even have the heart to admit their mistakes. Sure enough, such a world is the real world."

The next morning, they continued their departure.

Immortal cultivators rarely get hangovers, and their bodies are strong enough to eliminate the effects of alcohol. Except for immortal wine with mana effects - no one would drink that wine as if it were ordinary mortal wine, not a fool

The day's itinerary was a bit dull, probably because they had used it all yesterday, and they didn't have a decent harvest all day.

The hair roll in the team who is good at controlling beasts, accidentally found the breath of demon beasts under the soil by a river, and then spent about two quarters of an hour laying down a trapping formation, and finally caught a big earthworm that knows how to do tricks

This thing should belong to the category of demon beasts, and the natural supernatural powers are very useful, and they can help when mining underground minerals and hunting for treasures. However, ordinary earthworms丨 will not have this kind of magical power even if they live to become monsters, only some mutated ones do.

The earthworm caught by Mao Roll is valuable, but until it is tamed and cultivated, it is useless except to provide a mediocre golden pill.

It is not an easy task to train a wild demon beast into a spirit beast that can communicate with people. It takes an astonishing amount of time and patience, as well as a lot of resources.

Mao Juan is naturally good at communicating with demon beasts, so he can be an excellent orc tamer. If you don't have this kind of talent, even if you are a master like Wu Jie, it will be difficult to do this business like him

"It takes about 10 years of training." Furmaki said with satisfaction, "When this treasure hunt is over, I'm going to start training it." After training it, maybe I can consider doing prospecting or something like that. Although it is hard, it is much safer than treasure hunting. ”

Wu Xie knew that he had concealed some information - the prospector was entitled to a share of the dividends from the mines he discovered, or to take some rare ores before mining, and choose one of the two.

For Mao Roll, he guesses, that's all that matters.

Except for this big earthworm that can only come in handy ten years later, their harvest for the day is basically equal to zero, and when it comes to camping at night, many people seem unhappy.

Wei Mingfeng didn't care, he had participated in many treasure hunts, similar to today's situation, he had already encountered countless times.

For him, as long as he doesn't encounter danger, it's good luck today.

"But I think tomorrow could be dangerous." During the vigil, he found Wu Xie and whispered.

"Perhaps." Wu Xie smiled, "But I believe in your strength." ”

"If there's a situation we can't handle—"

"Don't worry, you're on my list of priorities." Wu Xie said with a smile.

Wei Mingfeng looked at Wu Xie for a while, then sighed deeply and turned to leave.

There are some things that don't need to be said so clearly and clearly, just know each other.

After daybreak, they moved forward again.

As far as the mind could find, there were far fewer traces left by the precursor monks—far less in the area before and after their camp.

This meant that there was some danger in that area, and it came silently, because they found no trace of the battle.

Wu Xie wanted to know, what was the danger? But perhaps because of his guard, the danger did not come to them. From this, it can probably be judged that it is a kind of monster that is very good at concealment and very cunning, at the very least, they know how to "don't be reckless".

Because of the help of this unknown monster to "screen", when they traveled today, they found that there were a lot more resources around, and everyone was busy collecting.

"It's like a treasure hunt" Zhong Chao sighed excitedly, Wu Xie found that this guy liked to be surprised, he felt like he was a child who hadn't grown up yet, and his mood changed quickly.

This guy owes education to Wu Xie so sure.

If he had the opportunity, he planned to give Zhong Chao a good make-up lesson and teach this arrogant genius how to behave.

Zhong Chao was born in a family of monks, and has always been regarded as a treasure by the clansmen, even this time when he came to hunt for treasures, his clansmen specially found Wei Mingfeng, who may be regarded as the most powerful treasure hunting expert in the outer sect of the Yujing faction, and also sent a distant brother named Zhong Qi to accompany him.

It was a very ordinary period, and he was a Dharma monk who could be seen everywhere. He played a role similar to that of a retinue and servant, taking care of Zhong Chao's food and daily life.

It was difficult for Wu Xie to understand why a Faxiang monk would wronged himself to do the work of a servant, but he could see that Zhong Qi did not reject his work, but on the contrary, he did it very carefully.

In that case, forget it. He can't and doesn't want to take care of other people's private affairs.

It was a very busy day, and in the afternoon, everyone found a lotus heart flower with a range of at least five or six miles.

Lotus heart flower is a kind of spiritual grass with relatively high value, which can refine the ingredients that calm the mind and is the main raw material of high-grade tranquil incense. This kind of spiritual grass is also cultivated in the outside world, but with such a large piece, I'm afraid that ordinary sects don't have it......

Everyone seemed very excited, and was about to go over to collect, Wu Xie suddenly frowned and looked at the sea of flowers

"In danger," he reminded loudly, "form a formation"

Everyone hurriedly formed a formation, but Tan Jinrong, who rushed to the front, was a little late. He was anxious to collect the oldest spirit grass as soon as possible, and he had gone too far and had already approached the very center of the sea of flowers.

So, when a silver light roared up from the center of the sea of flowers, shattering his magic phase, piercing his defensive magic weapon, piercing through his body, and finally shattering him to pieces, he had just turned back.

Wu Xie shook his head secretly, but did not come to the rescue.

He had given this man a chance, but he wasn't sure.
