Chapter 749: Dragon's Blood Tree
......
After everything was settled, the group, under the leadership of Master Huagang, turned left and right between the icicles and the rock wall, and made a long detour. Pro, Baidu search eye & fast, a large number of novels are free to read.
Yi Ting noticed that every ten zhang along the way, there was a formation flag buried in a secret place, but these array flags were of little practical use except for allowing Hua Gang to identify the path. And although the Colorful Fantasy Realm Cave as a whole was not large, everyone still walked for half an hour before finally stopping.
At this time, they had come to another wide grotto about the size of a glacial lake, and there was a platform in the deepest part of it, and on top of the platform, another strange treasure that the little king had spoken of could be seen at a glance.
"I didn't expect it...... It turned out to be a dragon's blood tree!!" As soon as Yi Ting saw it, he recognized what kind of treasure it was, and he couldn't help but show a trace of fire in his eyes.
"Hehe, Little Brother Yi is worthy of being a genius alchemist, and he recognized this strange treasure at a glance, it is a rare and abnormal dragon's blood tree. ”
Master Huagang was not surprised by Yi Ting's reaction, this kind of famous heavenly and earthly treasure, as a high-level alchemy master, he could naturally easily identify it.
This dragon's blood tree is about a foot high, with hundreds of branches at the upper end but not a single leaf, and from a distance it looks like a dead tree with dark yellow and gray trees, but if you look closely with your spiritual sense, you can find that the wrinkles on the bark are covered with a trace of dark red streaks.
Just like the blood vessels of an animal, you can still see blood flowing through it, and you can feel a slight pulse like a heartbeat, and a burst of vitality is hidden in its trunk.
Legend has it that the dragon blood tree can only be generated after being contaminated with the blood of the true dragon essence, and it has an endless life qi, even if it survives for hundreds of millions of years, it will not wither. And its most well-known effect is that its juice can be used to refine the longevity pill that prolongs the life of monks.
'Longevity Pill' can increase the longevity of a monk in the foundation building period by about two or three hundred years, and if it is taken by a monk in the Yudan period, it can increase the longevity of at least about five hundred years.
For monks in the Yudan period who only have a longevity of about 1,000 years, 500 years of longevity is almost equivalent to reliving again, and the possibility of finally breaking through to the Yuan infant stage has also greatly increased.
In addition, with its vigorous vitality, it can be used to refine the healing elixir, and the effect is also conceivable, but Yi Ting has seen an ancient elixir in the ancient city, called the 'Diyuan Life Renewal Pill', and the main raw material required is the sap of the dragon's blood tree.
Its effect is like that of the Jingyuan Pill to the acquired monk, no matter how serious the injury of the innate monk is, it can almost save his life.
And there is an even more important point, that is, when Liu Xinyu broke through the innate realm, the 'Tianyuan True Marrow Pill' he took also needed the essence of the dragon's blood tree to refine.
Not only can it increase the chance of the innate cultivator breaking through the bottleneck, but it can also enhance the spiritual root and physique, that is, the innate cultivator who has taken the True Marrow Pill can greatly improve the cultivation speed and the ability to recover from injuries in the future.
Therefore, just the three things of the Life Extension Pill, the Earth Yuan Life Continuation Pill, and the Tian Yuan True Marrow Pill can imagine how precious the Dragon Blood Tree is.
However, the usefulness of Yi Ting was not only that, but he had already spoken in advance, so Yi Ting quickly restrained his fiery eyes, and only showed admiration and envy.
But no matter what Yi Ting thought, Xiao Junwang and Master Huagang didn't care, because in their eyes, Yi Ting was already a dead man, so why bother.
Then, Master Hua Gang pointed to the platform where the dragon's blood tree was located, about thirty or forty zhang away, on both sides, there was a cave where it was impossible to see the situation inside.
He explained: "In the cave on the right, it is the habitat of the Dragon's Blood Tree's guardian spirit beast, and the old man doesn't know what kind of spirit beast it is. On the one hand, the strength of the old man is not enough to investigate in depth alone, but the breath he feels is at least above the late stage of foundation building. On the other hand, it was afraid of disturbing the guarding spirit beasts, and once a fierce battle was triggered, it might scare the Ice Heart Snow Lotus away. "
Yi Ting nodded, but he was very skeptical about his statement, the spirit beast that guarded the Dragon's Blood Tree, even if the realm that appeared was only in the late stage of foundation building, but it had been infiltrated by the breath of the Dragon's Blood Tree for a long time, and its strength and recovery ability would be very amazing, but Hua Gang deliberately omitted to mention it.
Then, he pointed to the cave on the left and said: "The other cave is naturally the place where the Ice Heart Snow Lotus is located, but no one can be sure whether there will be any connection between the guardian spirit beast and the Ice Heart Snow Lotus, so for the sake of insurance, the old man first arranged a four-rank trap array outside the cave on the right."
In case this guardian spirit beast is summoned when collecting snow lotus seeds, then it will be dragged first by relying on this trapped array, and it is also to prevent it from causing the destruction of the dragon's blood tree when it goes berserk.
Of course, this trapped array also includes a four-grade killing array, but this array can only be activated by the old man and presided over in person to exert ten percent of its power.
Therefore, before that, they could only rely on the trapped array to trap them, but the spirit beast's spiritual intelligence was usually not high, and the two of them, Little Brother Yi and Huang Guard, as long as they avoided their continuous collision, there would not be much of a problem. After the old man and the others returned, no matter how strong the guardian spirit protector was, he would be able to rely on the four-grade killing array to make everything clear. "
In fact, the relevant situation has been roughly mentioned before, so Yi Ting did not express his opinion, but just nodded to show that he understood. Then Master Hua Gang began to explain how to maintain the operation and transformation of the trapped formation, of course, Yi Ting sneered in his heart while listening.
"You two must only remember that only within the eyes of the array I designate can you ensure safety, but the trapped array can only block the cold attribute attacks released by some spirit beasts, so only the foundation building stage cultivators of the ice spirit root can be able to resist the range attack divine power released by it. Master Huagang said solemnly.
At this time, Yi Ting had also seen the magic circle arranged here.
There is nothing wrong with the part mentioned by Master Hua Gang, but another four-grade killing array is superimposed on top of the trapped array, and arranging the position of Yi Ting will be involved in the killing array, and it is not like Hua Gang himself said, the four-grade killing array must be launched by him personally.
Although it is launched by others, the power is not as powerful as when Huagang presided over it, but after all, it is also a four-rank killing array, and it is not a big problem to kill a monk in the early stage of foundation building.
Even if it is replaced by a guardian spirit beast with the strength of the foundation peak, as long as the time drags on long enough, it will be consumed sooner or later. But there are still two questions that Yi Ting can't think clearly, one is when exactly the people of the County King's Mansion plan to launch the killing array, and the other is whether the guardian spirit beast is really a low-grade peak spirit beast?
However, Yi Ting didn't bother to think about it anymore, if he didn't know the four-grade formation, then even if he wanted to break his head, the result would still be difficult to escape, but now Xiaojun Wang and Hua Gang still far underestimated Yi Ting's strength no matter how they calculated, so he had nothing to fear at all, and in any situation, Yi Ting was confident that he could resolve it.
So he didn't say much nonsense, and the person jumped to the place designated by Huagang, and then sat down cross-legged, waiting for things to develop.
And then Liu Xinyu and Sister Cheng followed Xiaojun Wang and Master Huagang into the cave on the left side of the Dragon's Blood Tree, and soon, Yi Ting's spiritual sense range lost their traces.
......
After walking for about half a mile, Liu Xinyu and the others arrived at the cave where the Ice Heart Snow Lotus was located.
It was probably less than half the size of the Dragon's Blood Tree Cave, but it was filled with a thick icy smoke, and in addition to the fact that the spiritual sense could not be extended, even the line of sight could only be seen half a foot away.
"Everyone don't move for the time being, wait for the old man to activate the formation and disperse the fog here. At the same time, Master Huagang's words came to everyone's ears, and they immediately stood in place, not daring to move around at will.
After entering the Ice Cave, the source of all the cold qi came from an ice heart snow lotus, so even a monk in the foundation building period, at this time, in the cold smoke, he had to consume true yuan to be able to resist the invasion of cold qi.
Especially in the case of completely ignorance of the surroundings, the danger is quite deadly, with the cultivation of the black guards' Qi refining peak, as long as they are close to the range of the Ice Heart Snow Lotus, they will probably immediately turn into ice sculptures, and the little county king will never send someone to save it, because that may disturb the Ice Heart Snow Lotus, so the result is certain death.
Then, in the sound of Master Huagang's seal, the cold fog around gradually converged to the center, and everyone's vision gradually became wider and clearer, until finally only a ten-zhang radius was left in the center, which was still white and cloudy, and they could already see each other's figures.
"Okay, let's start with the previous arrangement, I have planted the formation flag mark on the ground, once it is ready, wait for my command to infuse the true qi into the formation flag. With Master Huagang's order, the black guards of the County King's Mansion also began to disperse, standing in a circle around the mist mass in the center.
However, at this time, Sister Cheng noticed that the situation was a little strange, and couldn't help but question: "Master Huagang, why do you even have to seal the entrance of the cave with a formation, just to pick the ice heart snow lotus seeds, it seems that there is no need for this, right?!"
The Ice Heart Snow Lotus is a natural spiritual creature full of spirituality, and any unnecessary action may cause it to be alert, resulting in unpredictable results.
Therefore, Sister Cheng questioned the necessity of sealing the entrance to the cave, and at the same time, she vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in her heart.
Master Hua Gang said with a smile: "In order to be afraid that the Ice Heart Snow Lotus will escape, it is natural to seal the entrance of the cave......, what is so strange about this? "
Hearing Master Huagang's laughter, Sister Cheng's heart became even more uneasy, but she still asked calmly: "Escape?!If we only pick snow lotus seeds, the ice heart snow lotus will usually not obstruct or attack, so how can we say that we will run away?!"
The spiritual creatures born through the heavens and the earth are very dependent on cause and effect, as long as you have the ability to find them, then you can be regarded as a person with fate.
Therefore, picking snow lotus seeds can be regarded as a good karma, and Bingxin Snow Lotus will not deliberately resist or obstruct.
However, those who can have this kind of opportunity, only those with the Alien Ice Spirit Root have a chance, because the Ice Heart Snow Lotus is quite sensitive to the fire element, if she is close to her with a fire attribute cold protection spirit weapon, then she will inevitably get angry and fight back or run away.
But in the face of Sister Cheng's questioning, the little county king said sarcastically: "Here and now, there seems to be no room for Sister Cheng to speak! And if you can find something like the Ice Heart Snow Lotus, which can be encountered but not sought, how can it be that my County King's Mansion is just picking a few snow lotus seeds?"
