That night, Eucommia had a strange dream.

In his dream, he encountered a huge blood-colored giant turtle, its whole body was like jade, but its body was flowing with blood-colored light, carrying a huge carapace, crawling out of the water and approaching him.

That dream was very real.

As a result, when he woke up the next day, Du Zhong still felt a little afraid.

An immortal cultivator like him rarely had some strange dreams for no reason, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, so he looked through some classics and thought of knowing what the red giant turtle was.

In the end, he really found it.

"The blood jade spirit turtle, a rare spirit beast special in the East China Sea, can be refined into spirit turtle paste, and the life span of two hundred years can be increased. However, this thing has been extinct for thousands of years, since the Penglai Immortal Sect moved away from the southwest, no one has seen it again, and it is said that those blood jade spirit turtles have lived under the deep sea in order to avoid human capture......

Du Zhong frowned and shook his head.

I really can't figure out how I could have such a strange dream.

Mimihu Hudi climbed into bed again and slept for a while, until it was almost noon, when he remembered that he hadn't gone out to set up a stall today.

He came to the southwest this time, but he exchanged a lot of materials from the sect, and he was counting on making a little difference in order to buy more cultivation resources.

"Hey, a sect disciple like me with ordinary talent, if he wants to get ahead, he must work hard and diligently. The effect of the Qi Nourishing Pill I got last time was really good, but it's a pity that I've already eaten it, so it would be nice if I could get some more......"

After thinking about it, Du Zhong brought a pair of materials and came to the square city.

Not long after setting up the stall, he saw a familiar guest come to the door, it was the middle-aged strong man who had traded with him before.

"Fellow Daoist, you're here again!"

Du Zhong greeted him with a warm face.

After Su Chen saw him, he just nodded vigorously, coughed quietly, but quickly covered it up.

Du Zhong saw that his breath seemed to be a little disordered, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and stepped forward in a low voice: "Fellow Daoist, look at your breath is not smooth, your expression is sluggish, it seems that the injury is not light!" ”

"It's just a small injury."

Su Chen shook his head, his eyes showing vigilance.

That Du Zhong said with a righteous face: "Daoist friends think of me as someone, no matter what I say, I am also a disciple of the sect." You have seen the Legends of Middle Earth, you should know that my Yunyang Sect is also a famous and decent family, and I will definitely not do that kind of thing! ”

Hearing him say this, Su Chen seemed to relax a little, and then nodded: "That's the best." Du Daoyou, I came this time in exchange for some medicinal materials for healing. Here's a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill that I have newly refined, you can take a look at ......"

"There's only one bottle......"

Duzhong seemed a little disappointed.

However, seeing that Su Chen's injury was indeed not light, he said: "Okay, I'll lose a little bit and sell you a few healing herbs, so I should make a friend." ”

"Thank you!"

"When you're out and about, help each other."

Du Zhong said, handed over a few medicinal herbs, and asked with some curiosity: "Daoyou's strength is not bad, how could he be so seriously injured?" It doesn't mean anything else, it's just curiosity to ask. ”

Hearing this, Su Chen hesitated for a moment, and then looked at the medicinal herbs in his hand.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and said: "Daoyou is honest and sincere, and I won't hide it from you." Recently, there was news circulating in our casual cultivation that there was a thousand-year-old spirit bead in the depths of the island, and I thought about trying my luck, but I didn't expect that the spirit bead was not found, and I actually met a giant turtle and was almost devoured by it. If I hadn't had a life-saving talisman, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to come back alive......"

Su Chen said it well.

If someone else hears this, it will only be regarded as an anecdote and will not be taken too seriously.

But Du Zhong had just gotten his hint in a dream last night, and now he learned from Su Chen's mouth that there was indeed a giant tortoise, and his face couldn't help but change slightly.

Hurriedly asked, "Fellow Daoist, I don't know what that giant turtle looks like?" ”

Seeing this, Su Chen knew that he had taken the bait, and he had never seen the blood jade spirit turtle, but from Begonia's description, he probably knew some characteristics, so he manifested it in his dream, and now he is talking about it according to the description of the dream.

After listening, Du Zhong's eyes were full of color.

However, it was quickly covered up.

"That giant tortoise may be a powerful demon beast, and it is really not easy for Daoyou to come back alive. Go back and recuperate, don't delay the subsequent Immortal Ascension Conference. ”

"Well, thank you. Don't spread this news, in a few days, the thousand-year-old spirit bead will reappear, and I plan to try my luck again. ”

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Su Chen didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Soon after he left, Du Zhong hurriedly closed the stall, and then got up and went to the area where the cultivators lived, looking for a few casual cultivators he had recently acquainted.

knocked on the side, and sure enough, he also heard the news of the thousand-year-old spirit bead, so he confirmed what Su Chen said.

Du Zhong then returned to his residence, took out a token specially used for the internal affairs of the sect, and passed the information on the possible appearance of the Blood Jade Spirit Turtle on Penglai Immortal Island to the sect.

With this level of spirit beast, he knew that he was powerless to compete for.

But his master just needs this kind of life-prolonging elixir, if the news is true, he will be rewarded heavily, and his status in the door will also rise in the future.

And all this he did, Su Chen silently watched in his eyes.

As long as Du Zhong passes the news back, the foundation building master of the Yunyang Sect will definitely come to investigate when he hears the news.

At that time, it would be impossible for the Blue Blood Dao people to easily obtain the Blood Jade Spirit Tortoise.

Perhaps, he can also use the hand of Yunyang Sect to get rid of this person, and he will have no worries in the future.

Of course.

Even if the people from Yunyang Sect didn't come, Su Chen wouldn't have anything to lose.

Because he won't participate in this battle, he only needs to watch the play outside when the time comes, and he won't have anything to lose if he succeeds or not.

The worst result, that is, the Blue Blood Dao people successfully obtained the Blood Jade Spirit Tortoise, and it was a big deal for them to leave this place in advance, and then go to Middle-earth for a few hundred years.

Also, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles.

Su Chen went to the retreat place of Zhou Yi and the others again, and warned them not to go out casually in the past few days, and no matter what rumors were outside, don't pay attention to them.

……

Seven days passed quickly.

On this day, Su Chen received a summons from Han Zongyuan again, but he refused on the grounds that his cultivation had gone wrong and he needed to recuperate.

Although everyone was a little disappointed, they didn't pay too much attention to it.

Because the time has come, everyone else has already set off one after another, and it is impossible to change the plan because of Su Chen alone.

In the afternoon of the same day, the people set out from the west out of the city of Penglai and headed for the depths of the island.

Su Chen put on a black robe, hid his tracks, and followed from a distance.

……

The island is very large, but the city only occupies a small part, most of the outside is mountains and reefs, and there are many sunken and low-lying areas, which are flooded by seawater, forming islands and lakes of different sizes.

There are all kinds of conch shells and other things on the shore, and there are many underwater creatures growing in the sea.

Among them, there are many extremely aggressive monsters.

Of course, most of them are first-level demon beasts that are not strong, and everyone has good strength, and they will all solve it quickly under the joint efforts.

Not much.

Bypassing a mountain cliff canyon, there is a huge deep pit below, in which the sea water is tumbling, faintly silver light is refracted from the waves, and on the surrounding beach, you can see a lot of large and small pearl spirit mussels, which is obviously a place where pearl spirit mussels live in groups.

"That's a lot of spirit beads!"

Everyone was very excited, and they collected those spirit beads.

At the same time, in the forest around the lake, other scattered cultivators began to appear here, and after discovering that there were spirit beads all over the place, they couldn't wait, and they all played out their mana, each by their own means, to snatch the spirit beads here.

Su Chen used the earth escape technique to come to the top of the cliff, hide his breath, and look down.

There are a lot of people who come.

At least one-third of the scattered cultivators have all gotten this news, and they are all gathered here at this time, and their strength is very good, probably between the third and fifth layers of qi refining, which can be regarded as the backbone of this grand event.

They form small groups of three or five, and they are all wary and hostile to others.

But.

These people are all here for the thousand-year-old clam essence, so even if they are snatching those little spirit beads, they also maintain restraint with each other and do not have too fierce conflicts.

But as the sky darkened, the silver moonlight shone down.

In the center of the lake, the silver light surged out like a stream of water, and a huge clam spirit surfaced, and the door-like clam shell opened slightly, revealing the huge spirit bead inside.

Suddenly, the aura is overflowing!

"Millennial Spirit Orb! It seems that the news is indeed true! ”

"This treasure, we are determined to get it, who dares to be our enemy, life and death are at their own risk!"

"Rampant! I'm here with the Seven Immortals of Tielian Mountain, so it's your turn to get you clowns who jump off the beam? ”

"Do it, whoever gets the baby first is whoever!"

Seeing the thousand-year-old clam essence appearing, those loose cultivators couldn't hold it back for a long time, and they shot one after another, turning into Dao light and shadow and rushing towards the lake, for a while, sword light, fireballs, ice blades, poisonous smoke, all kinds of light came and went, and it was indistinguishable in an instant.

There is a way, people die for money, and birds die for food.

These casual cultivators, all of whom are very shrewd people on weekdays, but in the face of the temptation of huge interests, they will inevitably still be tempted, even if they know that this is fighting with their lives, they are willing to end, like moths to a fire.

Everyone felt that they would be the lucky one in the end.

At this time, Han Zongyuan and others also joined the battle one after another.

Han Zongyuan's practice is a bit similar to the Confucian method, there is a special jade pen weapon in his hand, and under the attraction of mana, he can draw all kinds of magical pictures in the air, so as to turn into birds and beasts and attack the enemy.

It looks a bit like a talisman pen for drawing talismans, but it's obviously a bit stronger.

At this time, he is like a painter, hunting in a Confucian robe, splashing ink, extraordinary, although his cultivation is only three layers of qi refining, but his means are not bad, and when he encounters a master of four layers of qi refining, he can barely suppress the other party.

From this point of view, the previous competition and fighting methods of this immortal cultivator were not all based on cultivation and mana.

The exercises of cultivation, the spells mastered, and their respective treasures, etc., are the key to determining the victory or defeat, there is no one who says that the realm is high, and he must win, otherwise everyone will go out in the future, and the realm will be divided into high, and there will not be so many fights and deaths and injuries.

Of course.

This is only if there is not much difference in cultivation.

If a person at the fourth level of qi refining encounters a master of the eighth or even ninth layer of qi refining, he can directly crush it with mana, and it will be difficult for ordinary means and spells to play a decisive role.

Between thoughts.

A loud sound of cloud and thunder came, and the Fayan monk took the lead, and the Buddha light around him was black, half demon and half Buddha, quite vicious.

I saw him punch out, and the mana Buddha light converged with the power of qi and blood, forming a shock wave visible to the naked eye, and he dropped ten times with one force, and directly beat several scattered cultivators along the way to vomit blood and fall.

"This thousand-year-old spirit bead, the poor monk smiled!"

Fa Yan laughed, and then punched down.

The shell of the thousand-year-old mussel essence suddenly cracked, shattered and exploded, and a spirit bead the size of a baby's head burst out, swaying with silver light, like a full moon pearl.

All of a sudden, all the monks were attracted.

Including those masters who were still lurking in the shadows to endure patience, when they saw the spirit bead appear, they all did it together.

The fighting on the lake is even more intense.

As the brilliance of mana staggered, corpses fell down one by one, and the lake was gradually dyed red.

And at this very time.

Su Chen noticed that in the center of the lake, a whirlpool appeared, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and the surrounding water waves were also shaking and rolling, as if something was coming out.

"The demon beast that guards the clam spirit should come out."

Then he looked down.

With a bang, it exploded with the waves, and a huge tentacle broke through the water, like a giant python, swept by, rolled up the waves and wind, and instantly shot down several immortal cultivators.

A piercing screech was heard, and then the behemoth revealed its true face.

It turned out to be an ugly octopus with a spiky appearance, its body was huge, dozens of feet high, eight hands opened, almost enveloping the entire lake, and the strong demonic aura was churning and surging, faintly showing signs of turning into substance.

"Rank 1 Peak Demon Beast!"

"Damn, I didn't expect that there was still a demon beast sitting in this lake, looking at this momentum, I'm afraid that it is about to break through the second level!"

"I see! This thousand-year-old mussel essence is cultivated in it and used as a material to break through the second level. If we snatch the spirit beads, this beast will not give up! ”

When the monks saw this, their faces turned pale.

The strength of a first-level peak demon beast is probably equivalent to about the ninth level of qi refining of a human monk.

In contrast, those loose cultivators present were not opponents at all.

Therefore, just a face-to-face resulted in heavy casualties.

The big octopus waved its tentacles and swept in all directions, and the people above the lake were constantly being slapped and falling like flies.

"That's not right! How did it not come out of the Blood Jade Spirit Tortoise, could it be that the Blood Jade Spirit Tortoise was not here at all? ”

In the dark, Su Chen couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw the situation below.

And right now.

He suddenly sensed that there were blood-colored lights rising up all around, and they were still dotted at first, but with the appearance of the octopus demon beast and the killing of a large number of scattered cultivators, these points of light were connected into one, forming a blood-colored light curtain, completely enveloping this area.

Seeing that the situation was not good, some of them wanted to escape, but they were stopped by the blood-colored light curtain.

At the same time, in mid-air, blood-colored clouds were converging.

Just as Su Chen saw in the sky above the battlefield back then, the blood light converged towards a mountain forest in the distance.

Followed by.

He heard a loud bang that shook the earth.

A small hill creeping in the distance suddenly shook, and the rubble splattered, revealing blood-colored turtle shells.

"Blood Jade Spirit Tortoise!"

Su Chen was secretly surprised, this Blue Blood Dao man was really cunning.

It turned out that the Blood Jade Spirit Turtle was not here at all, he deliberately put the thousand-year-old clam essence here, attracting everyone to come and fight, and then used the formation laid out, using the demon beasts, to kill all the scattered cultivators here, obtain the power of the blood sacrifice, and then deal with the Blood Jade Spirit Turtle!

Fortunately, I didn't rush into the market like everyone else.

Otherwise, if you are trapped inside, you will probably die!
