A fragmented treasure map that had been collected for many years was completed, and Zhou Chun was still very interested in this matter.

Not only him, but I believe that any immortal cultivator would be interested in this kind of thing.

After all, there are too many legends about all kinds of treasures in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Every immortal cultivator, whether he is a casual cultivator, a family monk, or a sect monk, has ever fantasized about becoming the lucky one in the story and legend.

The point is that these legends are not all made up, but there are many examples of facts.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that Zhou Chun knows the two most well-known examples he has participated in.

One is the real person of Tianjing, when he was young, he accidentally obtained the inheritance of the "Xuanjing Zhenren" in the middle of the Yuan Infant Period, inherited the legacy left by this Yuan Infant True Man, and finally succeeded in turning Dan into a real person in the Yuan Infant Period!

Another example is the secret island discovered by Luo Qingni and others according to the treasure map, and Zhou Chun was also a personal participant in this matter, and he got great benefits from it.

With these successful examples in the past, now that a treasure map of not a low level has been found by the Zhou family, how can Zhou Chun not be interested in the treasure recorded on the treasure map!

But if you are interested, Zhou Chun has no intention of going to treasure hunting right away.

After seeing him muttering for a while, he said to Zhou Mingde: "That treasure map is only written in a third-order animal skin, and the treasures hidden in it may not be very precious compared to us, it is better to let a few family elders take people to test it first, if it can be done, it will be considered a chance for them!" ”

Saying this, it was not that Zhou Chun looked down on the treasures on the treasure map, but he knew in his heart that the family could not rely on himself and Zhou Mingde, the two Jindan period monks, to carry everything.

Sometimes I have to find something to do for those foundation building monks and purple mansion monks.

Something like this that explores the location of the treasure that has already been identified is undoubtedly a great opportunity.

If the family elders and core clan members sent can solve the problem and bring back the treasure, it will naturally be a good thing.

If they can't solve the problem, it's not too late to take action themselves.

Zhou Mingde naturally heard the meaning of Zhou Chun's words, and after hearing the words, he just groaned slightly, then nodded with a smile and replied: "This is not bad, those juniors should also find something to do for them, so as not to develop the bad habit of relying on the family for everything!" ”

After the two reached an agreement, after a little discussion, they decided to let Zhou Xinlan and Zhang Liang, the two monks of the Zifu period, take Zhou Sihan, Zhou Xinyan and other six monks of the foundation building period to find the treasure together.

Just in case, Zhou Chun also handed over the Golden Armor Negative Mountain Turtle Stone to Zhou Xinlan to bring on his body.

After Zhou Xinlan and the others set off, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde patiently waited for the news at home.

On the other side, after Zhou Xinlan and Zhang Liang led the team to leave the family mountain gate, they went to the final treasure place on the treasure map under the leadership of Zhou Sihan.

After several days of traveling, the group soon arrived at the place where the treasure was hidden.

"The mountain range ahead is called 'Aconitum Ridge' by the local monks, and there is a large amount of poisonous ebony wood growing in the mountain, once these ebony woods are destroyed, whether they are burned or cut down, they will release highly toxic smoke and smell, which can poison the monks of the Qi refining period."

"And there are also a variety of poisonous demon beasts inhabiting the mountains and forests, such as aconitum snakes, black black birds, black jade centipedes and other demon beasts!"

"That treasure hiding place is located in a mountain peak full of poisonous miasma in the depths of the 'Aconitum Ridge', with a powerful formation guard, and there are also a large number of black black birds living on the mountain, among which there are as many as five second-order black black birds, and the bird king is a second-order high-grade demon bird!"

I saw a place outside the Black Forest, who had been here before, and Zhou Sihan, who was also in charge of leading the way this time, pointed to the large black forest in front of him, and said the situation inside in a solemn tone.

He had come here alone to look for treasure before, because he underestimated the poisonous insects and demon beasts inside, and almost made a big mistake.

And that group of black black birds made him completely extinguish his idea of taking treasure with his own strength, and after he went back, he could only honestly hand over the other half of the treasure map he obtained.

Listening to his words at this time, Zhou Xinlan suddenly waved his hand indifferently and said: "With Xiaolian's niece here, those poisonous insects and monsters don't come to fall, if you dare to come and send her to death, just give her a tonic!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Yuanlian, who was specially recruited into the team.

"The juniors must do their best."

Zhou Yuanlian replied with an indifferent face, and her words did not carry the slightest emotion.

Zhou Xinlan and the other Zhou family monks didn't seem to be surprised by this, and no one thought she was dissatisfied with anyone because of her demeanor and tone.

But anyone who knows a little about Zhou Yuanlian knows that because of her cultivation of the exercises, she has the same indifferent attitude towards everyone, and it is said that there is no change even in front of the patriarch Zhou Zhengchun!

At this time, under the leadership of Zhou Xinlan, the group immediately strode into the forest.

The reason why he walked instead of flying in the air was naturally to conserve mana and avoid exposure.

"Aconitum Ridge" is the territory of demon beasts, although I have not heard of the appearance of third-order demon beasts in it, but the number of second-order demon beasts and first-order demon beasts is quite a lot.

If you fly directly over it, you will easily be besieged by the demon beasts inside.

Especially those black black birds, they have a very strong sense of territory in the air, and they will never let these people of the Zhou family fly freely in the sky.

Moreover, there are some middle and low-level monks here all the year round, and if such a large group of people as the Zhou family flies through the air, it will definitely be very eye-catching.

At that time, once the local foundation building monks or Purple Mansion monks are invited, the treasure will not be hidden!

And with the strength of the Zhou family's team, it is naturally impossible for those demon beasts and poisonous insects that are scattered and scattered in the "Aonitum Ridge" to pose a threat to them.

After less than half a day of walking in the mountains and forests, they arrived at their destination.

I saw that under the blue sky and white clouds, a large area of dark blue miasma was permeating the sky over the mountains and forests, and the wind could not blow away and the sun could not disperse.

In the depths of this dark blue miasma, there were several continuous peaks hundreds of zhang high, and from time to time there were strange screams of noise and piercing sounds.

Everyone stopped outside the miasma area, and saw Zhou Yuanlian step forward and enter it and stay inside for a while.

Then the person retreated outside, raised his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a few talismans made of unknown insect carapaces and handed them to Zhou Xinlan and the others, "You wear these poison-repellent talismans, and within three hours, you should be able to ignore the miasma erosion here." ”

It is said that it is a talisman, but in fact, it should be a talisman.

The "Ten Thousand Poisons True Scripture" records many methods for refining poison weapons and talismans, and Zhou Yuanlian's cultivation in the early stage of foundation building is still difficult to refine those powerful poison cultivation weapons.

However, some talismans that do not require high production skills are already able to make some of them proficiently.

The production materials of these talismans are generally based on the shells of poisonous insects, and some will also use spirit wood, animal skins, animal bones, and scales, and the production process also needs to be guided by the mana cultivated in the "Ten Thousand Poisons True Scripture".

It can be said that it is Zhou Yuanlian's unique skill.

At this time, according to what Zhou Yuanlian said, everyone hung the poison-repellent talisman on their chests, and then stepped into the miasma.

Suddenly, an invisible force expelled the miasma around everyone's body for several feet, making it impossible for them to touch their bodies.

In this way, with the protection of the poison repellent, everyone no longer needs to spend mana to resist the erosion of miasma, saving them a lot of mana.

But as they delved deeper into this miasma area, they soon attracted the attack of the owner of the place.

I only heard a dull sound of flapping wings from the depths of the miasma, and soon a series of jet-black arrows pierced through the miasma and shot towards everyone.

However, Zhou Xinlan and Zhang Liang, the two Purple Mansion period monks, had already warned in advance, and these jet-black arrows were either dodged by everyone in the end, or they were resisted by them with spells and magic weapons.

Then the figures of the enemies who attacked them also appeared in the air.

I saw that there were big black birds that were chubby, they looked a little like crows, but their bodies were fat and ball-like, and their eyes were even blacker and purple.

This is the Black Black Bird, a demon bird that is highly poisonous even in blood!

At this time, there were about fifty black black birds that attacked the Zhou family's monk team, led by a second-order lower grade black black bird.

Ordinary first-order black black birds can basically only spit venom flying arrows, and some first-order high-grade black black birds can perform the "poisonous rain technique".

If they were one-on-one, they were no match for immortal cultivators of the same level at all.

But it's a pity that this kind of demon bird basically won't be left alone, and it will come out in flocks every time.

And dozens of first-order black black birds spit venom arrows at the same time to attack, and the monks in the early stage of foundation building had to avoid their edges, so as not to be contaminated with their highly poisonous venom.

Previously, Zhou Sihan came alone, and he was chased and killed all the way by three second-order black black birds with hundreds of first-order black black birds, and finally gave up a third-order low-grade magic talisman to escape with his life!

But this time, the black blackbirds were kicked to the iron plate.

When they appeared, Zhou Xinyan, Zhou Sihan and other six foundation building period monks suddenly shot out together, and all kinds of magic weapons and spells shone in the sky, and most of the birds were wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Even the second-order low-grade black black bird didn't have time to escape, and was slashed into the sky by Zhou Xinyan, who was already cultivating in the late stage of foundation building.

"The nineteenth brother's 'Jiamu Xuanguang' supernatural power is really extraordinary, and it deserves to be a top-level exercise with supernatural powers!"

Seeing that there was no need to do it themselves, everyone had already solved the enemy, and Zhou Xinlan also praised Zhou Xinyan and the others without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Xinyan heard what he said, he shook his head calmly and said: "No matter how extraordinary it is, it is still a foundation building method, if a cultivator like you like you makes a move, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch a single move!" ”

These words suddenly made Zhou Xinlan not know how to answer it.

He knew in his heart that Zhou Xinyan, as the first high-grade spiritual root qualified monk born after the Zhou family took root in Jiufengling, and he was the same generation as him, and his heart had always been quite proud.

As a result, after building the foundation, because there was no direct elder to help him, and because he was arrogant at the beginning, he chose "Jiamu Xuangong", a top-level exercise that was difficult to cultivate, and his cultivation speed was thrown off by Zhou Xinlan and several other clan brothers.

In the end, Zhou Xinlan was assisted in opening up the Purple Mansion with the help of his father Zhou Zhengyong, and successfully opened up the Purple Mansion one step ahead of all the monks of the same generation, directly throwing off a big realm of these fellow monks.

How can Zhou Xinyan, who has always been proud, accept it in his heart!

Therefore, in recent years, anyone who is familiar with Zhou Xinyan has found that the number of adventures he has gone out has increased a lot compared with the past, but the number of exchanges with fellow monks has decreased, as if he is holding his breath.

This time, Zhou Chun arranged for Zhou Xinlan to lead the team to collect the treasure, and also arranged Zhou Xinyan into the team, which must be a big and small stimulus for Zhou Xinyan.

Under this kind of stimulation, Zhou Xinlan's words of praise for him may become harsh in his ears.

After Zhou Xinlan found out about this at this moment, he could only shake his head helplessly, and did not answer Zhou Xinyan's words again, but just asked everyone to clean up the corpse of the black black bird that fell on the ground a little, and continued to march towards the peak where the treasure was located.

But maybe it was because the black black birds that had escaped just now went back to report the news, and they had just finished cleaning up the battlefield, and Zhou Xinlan and Zhang Liang's divine senses found a large number of black black birds flying towards them.

"Quick, everyone get ready immediately, those black black birds are pouring out!"

Zhou Xinlan shouted a warning in his mouth, and at the same time sacrificed the magic weapon and prepared to make a move.

Not long after the words fell, as many as hundreds of black black birds appeared in everyone's sight.

Among them, the huge figure of the second-order high-grade black black bird is even more conspicuous.

"I'll deal with the Bird King, and the rest of the black black birds will be handed over to you, Brother Zhang will wait for me to sweep the array!"

Zhou Xinlan ordered in a deep voice to command everyone to fight the enemy, and as soon as his divine sense urged, a long knife magic weapon turned into a flash of fire and slashed towards the second-order high-grade black black bird.

With his Purple Mansion period cultivation, dealing with a second-order high-grade demon beast is naturally a pinch.

But what is commendable is that this black black bird is worthy of being the bird king of the flock, even if it is only a second-order high-grade cultivator, he dares to take the initiative to attack Zhou Xinlan, a monk of the Purple Mansion Period.

It seemed to be able to slightly control the poisonous miasma, and between the flapping of its wings, it could condense and compress the poisonous miasma qi to form a poisonous arrow in the sky and shoot at Zhou Xinlan.

It's a pity that this kind of attack that is full of threat to the monks of the foundation building period fell on the [Xuangang Bead] protective shield urged by Zhou Xinlan, but it was not at all wavering.

But the long knife magic weapon urged by Zhou Xinlan cut off one of its wings with the first knife, and cut off its head with the second knife!

After killing the Black Black Bird Queen with two knives in this way, Zhou Xinlan did not interfere in other people's battles again, but was ready to save people at any time.

But in fact, he was a little worried, the foundation building monks who followed him this time, except for Zhou Yuanlian, the rest of them were all veteran foundation building monks who had built the foundation for many years, and everyone had these second-order magic weapons in their hands, and it was impossible to deal with the remaining three second-order black black birds and other first-order black black birds.

In less than a quarter of an hour, most of the hundreds of black black birds that attacked were ambushed, and only a few dozen scattered and fled, narrowly escaping for their lives.

No one cared about the black black birds that fled, and the people who had made a lot of gains were busy collecting the corpses of the demon birds on the ground at this time.

The black black bird's feathers and the poison sac in its body are both refining materials, and they are also good materials for Zhou Yuanlian to cultivate poison skills.

Zhou Xinlan made the decision on the spot and handed over the corpses of several second-order black black birds to Zhou Yuanlian for disposal, except for the feathers.

No one has any objection to this.

Not to mention the unclear relationship between Zhou Yuanlian and the patriarch Zhou Zhengchun, let's just say that Zhou Yuanlian has contributed to providing everyone with antidote and poison detoxification along the way, and he is eligible to obtain these things.

Besides, they also wanted to take this opportunity to befriend this clansman, so that whether they wanted to ask him for help in detoxifying the poison in the future, or asking him to buy poison and poison charms and other things, it would be easier for them to speak.

It took less than a quarter of an hour to settle the battle in this way, but it took nearly three quarters of an hour to clean up the battlefield.

After the battlefield was cleaned, everyone set off again.

At this time, because the black black bird flock was solved, everyone did not encounter resistance on the way forward, and soon came to the peak where the treasure was hidden, which is also the location of the old nest of the black black bird flock.

At this time, there were no other demon beasts on the mountain peak, except for some black black birds and young birds that could not fly yet.

"It's a pity that if a demon bird like the black black bird wants to advance to the second order, it must form a large flock of birds, otherwise you can bring some eggs and juveniles back to the family to raise!"

Zhou Siyu, another female cultivator in the team, looked at the young birds and eggs in the nest, and couldn't help but sigh with pity on her face.

The second-order black black bird's combat power is still very good, and the poison attribute spell is also very weird and difficult to prevent, which can be regarded as a good spiritual pet.

But just like Zhou Siyu said, if a social demon beast like the black black bird wants to produce a second-order demon beast, it needs to form a flock of birds.

And it is impossible for the Zhou family to raise one or two hundred black black birds to cultivate second-order black black birds, the price is too great to be worth it at all.

At this moment, Zhou Yuanlian suddenly said: "There are many poisonous weeds on this mountain that are beneficial to my cultivation, I will go and pick these poisonous weeds first, and you can just call me after you find the treasure place." ”

"Since it's about Xiaolian's niece, you can go by yourself."

Zhou Xinlan bowed slightly, and agreed.

Then he took out the rubbed map with Zhou Sihan and others and looked for the specific location of the treasure.

After searching for about two quarters of an hour on the mountain, the people found the location of the treasure recorded on it.

"This is it, the treasure is inside this stone wall!"

Under a mountain cliff and stone wall, Zhou Xinlan and others held a treasure map in their hands and compared it repeatedly, and finally unanimously determined that the location marked on it was the cliff and stone wall in front of them.

Then Zhou Xinlan groaned slightly, and directly sacrificed the long knife magic weapon and slashed towards the stone wall.

However, after the long knife magic weapon broke through the stone wall about a zhang deep, it was blocked, and it was difficult to make any more inch.

"There's really a mystery in it!"

With a flash of joy in his eyes, Zhou Xinlan immediately withdrew the long knife magic weapon and looked at Zhang Liang.

This time, Zhou Chun sent Zhang Liang to be his partner, precisely because he knew that the treasure place must be guarded by a formation, and Zhang Liang's current formation attainments were not much worse than some formation masters.

"Zhang try it first."

Zhang Liang nodded slightly, and when he stepped forward, he tested the formation inside with the means of a formation mage.

I saw that after he was busy for almost half an hour, he shook his head slightly at Zhou Xinlan and said: "Zhang can't see the specific origin of the formation here, but its arrangement method is quite clever, it has been linked to the spiritual veins here, and it also has the effect of hiding the aura, if you rely on me alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to forcibly break this formation!" ”

Hearing what he said, Zhou Xinlan couldn't help but sigh lightly, and then nodded and said, "Then try to attack first, if it really doesn't work, then go back to the family to report to the patriarch." ”

After speaking, he called everyone to attack the mountain wall in front of him.

Under the attack of all of them, the stone wall on the outer layer of the mountain wall was quickly shattered and peeled off, revealing a black-brown formation shield inside.

The defensive power of this formation shield is very strong, and Zhou Xinlan can only make it slightly shine and shake when he hits with all his strength.

After trying to attack for half an hour without any results, Zhou Xinlan completely gave up.

He directly asked everyone to stop the offensive, then looked at Zhang Liang and said, "Brother Zhang, you come and arrange a set of formations to cover this place first, and I will let the nineteenth brother go back to the family first to report the situation to the patriarch." ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Xinyan and said, "Nineteenth brother, you have two second-order spirit pets, and you are no worse than me if you continue to hurry, so please go back to the family to report the situation here!" ”

"I know, then take care of yourself, fourth brother."

Zhou Xinyan nodded, he didn't play tricks on such a serious matter, and soon said goodbye to everyone and returned to Yasukuni.

In this way, relying on the rotation of the two second-order spirit pets of the Blue Feather Fire Kite and the Flame Dragon Python, Zhou Xinyan only took two days to return to the Tuyunling Mountain Gate.

After learning about the situation of the treasure hiding place from Zhou Xinyan, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde discussed it and decided to go to Chengguo to get the treasure in person.

He didn't let Zhou Xinyan lead the way, but just let him rest first, and he took the original treasure map and rushed to Chengguo alone.

Because he was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, Zhou Chun did not use the Golden-winged Tiger or Thunder Jiao Bai Bai to walk, and directly urged the magic weapon of [Taibai Jiao Sword] to hurry away.

Only a few hours have passed, and others have already appeared in the border area between Yasukuni and Chengguo.

But at this moment, the [Moon Toad Orb] in Zhou Chun's body suddenly gave a frantic warning and conveyed an alarm to him.

This is the first time Zhou Chun has encountered this situation after refining this treasure.

After he was stunned for a moment, he hurriedly urged this treasure to display the "Taiyin Body Protective Immortal Clothes" magic power to protect himself.

And at the next moment after the silver-white fairy clothes appeared, a cold snort suddenly sounded in Zhou Chun's mind, and he was attacked by his divine sense.

It's just that the person who made the attack obviously didn't expect that Zhou Chun's divine sense was not only stronger than that of an ordinary mid-stage Jindan monk, but also the third-layer "Heart Lotus Righteous Law" guard, and this time the divine sense attack only made him lose his mind slightly and quickly recovered.

At this time, the silver-white fairy clothes outside Zhou Chun's body were also shaking violently, and a white transparent long sword suddenly appeared in front of his chest.

The power emitted by this sword is much better than that of the [Taibai Slashing Jiao Sword], so it is not a top-grade magic weapon, and it is not far off.

And as this magic weapon came out, Zhou Chun's wildly diffused divine sense also captured the attacker's location.

In his divine sense, there was a vague figure hidden in a cloud somewhere more than ten miles away from him!
