Chapter 223: The Mountains Are in Danger
Looking at the young man, looking at the thirty or so mercenaries wearing the same badge on their chests, Fan Chen blinked, it seems that these people should be the Tiger Head Mercenary Group, one of the three major mercenary groups in Baiyun Town.
Looking at the degree of support of these tiger-headed mercenary members for the medicine collection team, it is obvious that they are also guards hired by "if you want medicine".
Moreover, it seems that the level of trust in the Tiger Head Mercenary Group is much stronger than that of the previous stragglers, otherwise, they would not have been allowed to come as personal guards.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Fan Chen didn't have much interest in the relationship between that young man and flowing water.
Shaking his head, he marched towards the Shadow Mountains with heavy steps again.
Outside of the Shadow Mountains, everything was relatively peaceful, but not long after the team entered the Shadow Mountains, a small-scale Shadow Demon Beast attack was brutally displayed in front of mortal dust.
The attacker is a three-headed shadow demon beast at the peak of spiritual cultivation, named Ice Snake, this kind of shadow demon beast, quite common in the periphery of the Shadow Mountain Range, the attribute is ice, the ice is pregnant with cold poison, if the poisoned person is not treated within half a day, he will be frozen by the cold poison in the blood in the body until death.
The three-headed Spiritual Peak Shadow Demon Beast Ice Snake fell above the trunk of the tree, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the people below, like lightning, it very easily imported the cold poison into the bodies of the three mercenaries, and suddenly, the three men whose faces were as pale as ice sculptures softened their hands and feet coldly.
Attacked by the attack, everyone immediately shot out angrily, and in a moment, the three-headed spiritual peak shadow demon beast was beaten to death by the group without accident.
And after killing the three-headed spiritual peak shadow demon beast, they did not find any trace of the shadow demon core in their bodies, and in this regard, the mercenaries only sighed with a little regret.
It wasn't uncommon for them to kill Shadow Monsters in the wild, only to return at a heavy cost of casualties, so they weren't too disappointed about it.
After the ice snake was dealt with, the three mercenaries who were hit by the cold poison were quickly sent to the medicine collection team in the rear, and the flowing water personally took action to expel the cold poison in their bodies for them.
And after the attack of the Ice Snake Land, the mercenary team that had suffered a loss became even more cautious, however, in the Shadow Mountain Range, where the Shadow Demon Beasts were densely packed, it was obviously impossible to completely avoid the Shadow Demon Beasts.
The team walked less than 500 meters away, and everyone was attacked by three waves of shadow monsters, but fortunately, the mercenaries were outnumbered, and at the cost of a dozen mercenaries being slightly injured, all the attacks of the three waves of shadow monsters were repulsed.
In the exploration team that followed ahead, the inevitable mortal dust also directly participated in a battle, but in a head-on collision with a first-level shadow demon beast of spiritual cultivation, it ended at the cost of numbness in his palms.
Looking at the shadow demon beast that escaped cunningly after the attack was fruitless, Fan Chen gritted his teeth hatefully, if it weren't for the spiritual power in his body being bound by the wooden sword, he would definitely be able to kill this shadow demon beast, but unfortunately...
"Damn, this damn seven-day mission, walking a ghost" Shaking his numb hand, Fan Chen's face was not very good-looking.
However, Rao let the shadow demon beast escape, but the strength shown by Fan Chen still impressed the surrounding mercenaries.
"Little brother, it's amazing, you can fight against the tailed leopard, which is known for its strength. ”
"Tsk, you're so tough at a young age, and you'll have it in the future?"
"Haha, this little guy is the youngest spiritual peak in the team, right?
The cheers of the surrounding mercenaries caused a small commotion in the ranks, and everyone automatically omitted to question when they looked at the young man with the wooden sword on his back.
In this kind of spiritual world where you judge status by strength, as long as you show impressive strength, you can gain the awe of others, which is a very simple and straightforward rule!
For these cheers, Fan Chen just smiled casually, and in his smile, he was neither coquettish nor proud, but just followed the team and continued to walk silently towards the medicine collection site.
"Everyone, this is close to the medicine collection area, please take a break, everyone is tired after walking for so long" After walking a distance again, the woman's soft crisp voice suddenly sounded in the quiet team.
The pace of progress paused slightly, and the whole team invariably stopped, turned around, looked at the woman in the white dress with no impurities in her smile, and nodded her head very honestly.
After Xun's discussion, more than a dozen mercenaries scattered around to stand on guard, while the others, sitting in place, regained a lot of energy consumed by hurrying.
Sitting on the ground, Fan Chen slowly exhaled, flicked his fingers, and a pale green Hui Li Dan appeared in the palm of his hand again, his eyes swept around, Fan Chen turned his head slightly, raised his head and yawned, and patted his mouth with his palm, and the pill was also thrown into his stomach without a trace at this time.
When the elixir entered the body, the medicinal power waved rapidly, and Fan Chen leaned against the trunk of the tree, slightly closed his eyes, and let the medicinal power quickly replenish the exhausted spiritual power in the body.
Because of the help of Huili Dan, when Fan Chen returned to his peak state again, the mercenaries around him were still whispering, waiting for the slow recovery of spiritual power.
Although it is possible to cultivate mortal transformation, it seems that the environment is not very quiet now.
After muttering in his heart that having an elixir is cool, Fan Chen stood up, said to the mercenary beside him to go out for a little relief, and then slowly walked towards the small forest on the side.
Walking into the forest, the light was dim, but this was the area that the mercenaries had scouted before, so Fan Chen didn't have to worry about being suddenly attacked by the shadow demon beast, and his eyes swept around, looking for the most suitable place to cultivate.
With the detection of mortal dust, he also went deeper and deeper into the small dense forest, and walked a distance again, and his dim vision suddenly brightened.
When I looked up, I saw that I had passed through a small dense forest, and what appeared in front of me was a somewhat steep cliff, and below the cliff, it was covered with lush green forests, which was quite beautiful.
His eyes swept over the edge of the cliff, but his eyes suddenly paused, Fan Chen touched his nose, and then stopped in front of a plant with pale white flowers blooming on the edge of the cliff.
This plant has pale white flowers, faintly blooming flowers, with white fruits, looming, a faint medicinal fragrance, emanating from it.
His eyes swept carefully over the plant, and Fan Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise, then squatted down slightly, stretching out his palm against the plant, wanting to take it off.
Just when Fan Chen touched the plant, a small white hand like jade suddenly stretched out from the cliff in front of him, and it was also grabbed at the plant, but it was grabbed on the palm of Fan Chen's hand.
