Chapter 529: Stone Forest Basin
"So much for the best. When you go to collect, pay attention, the kind of golden sunflower that only has leaves and no flowers is useless, I want it to bloom. Zhao Gui admonished.
"Senior, we haven't seen the golden sunflower spirit grass you said, I don't know if there is a pattern?" Yuan Ming asked.
When Zhao Gui heard this, he raised his hand and waved it in the void, and a void light condensed into a phantom of a golden sunflower spirit grass, which was displayed in front of the three of them.
"See clearly, that's it." Zhao Gui said.
The three of them silently noted the appearance of the golden sunflower spirit grass and nodded.
"In addition, the three of you have slightly different tasks, this Yuan Daoyou needs to collect three blooming golden sunflowers. You'll need to collect six. As for the ...... The two who killed me, as compensation, need to collect twelve flowers. Zhao Gui's fingers passed over the three of them one by one.
When Yan Xiang heard this, he was immediately annoyed, but when he thought of the way to leave, he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
Seeing that the three of them had no objections, Zhao Gui stepped forward, pinched the trick with both hands and fingers, and cast a spell on Yuan Ming and the others.
Yuan Ming only felt as if a vague force had entered his body, and he didn't feel the slightest abnormality, and asked with some uncertainty, "That's it?" ”
"We'll find out when you go out and give it a try." Zhao Gui waved his hand and said casually.
The three of them didn't dare to delay, and immediately followed the direction guided by Zhao Gui and walked towards the outside of the village.
"Remember, you can't lose a golden sunflower." Zhao Gui's voice came melodiously from behind.
Yuan Ming didn't look back and waved his hand.
Lei He came to Yuan Ming's side and asked, "Yuan Daoyou, how did you solve your fire poison?" ”
Not far from beside him, Yan Xiang, who was pressing one hand on his forearm to suppress the fire sores, also pricked up his ears to listen carefully.
"Oh, the leaves of the trees that grow in that village can detoxify fire." Yuan Ming said.
Hearing this, Lei He couldn't help but pause, and sighed: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Yan Xiang's eyes were red, and he felt that his anger was a little uncontrollable.
"Why didn't you ask earlier? Besides, even if I said it, that senior may not be willing to let you go into the village to pick leaves, do you say yes or no? Yuan Ming spread his hands and asked rhetorically.
Lei He sighed in his heart, and regretted that he hadn't stopped Yan Xiang from going crazy.
At the moment, they can only continue to endure, and the matter of detoxification can only be discussed when they come back from picking flowers.
In order to save time, Yuan Ming and the three of them did not dare to delay, and after leaving the village, they followed the instructions and walked all the way to the northeast.
After walking for about twenty or thirty miles, they found that the peach trees around them were gradually thinning out, and their vision became much more cheerful.
Not far away, tall stone pillars rise from the ground, reaching into the sky like small hills.
Between the stone pillars, a faint red mist almost engulfed most of the stone pillars, leaving only a small part of the top exposed, which was not bare, but occasionally there were dense golden grasses growing in a mess, looking from afar, like a tree crown.
And on these "canopies", there is occasionally a golden flower, whose appearance is completely different from the grass and trees that Yuan Ming and the others have seen before, and the flower buds alone are the size of a car body.
There are four layers of buds from the inside to the outside, the most central is the petals like thin strips, and the outer three layers are like knives and leaves, and there are many small hairs at the edges, and the sunlight passes through the gaps in the fluffs, like a hazy halo on the buds.
This seems to be the golden sunflower spirit grass that Zhao Gui asked them to pick, although there are not many of them, they are not difficult to find.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming and the others were quite surprised, but soon, when they got closer, they realized where the real difficulty was in the task given to them by Zhao Gui.
All the golden sunflowers they could find within their sight were in a budding state, and even the petals refused to stretch out a trace, and they were all tightly covered so that no one could see the situation in the heart of the flower.
If you want to pick a golden sunflower that meets the requirements, it seems that you have to go deep into the stone forest.
The three of them approached the edge of the stone forest, looking at the fog in front of them, Yan Xiao immediately complained.
"How come there are so many strange prohibitions everywhere in this hellish place?"
Yuan Ming on the side silently leaned out his divine sense, wanting to penetrate the fog to find out the situation in the stone forest.
However, as soon as his divine consciousness touched the red mist, a hot poison instantly drilled out, and invaded his sea of consciousness along the divine consciousness.
Yuan Ming's expression changed, and he immediately withdrew his divine sense, but at this time, the fire turned by the fire poison had already appeared on the sea of consciousness, and he rushed directly towards his divine soul.
He made a decision immediately, and hurriedly urged his soul power to stop the fire poison, and continued to wash it, and finally extinguished it, and he also consumed a lot of soul power, and his face was slightly pale.
Yuan Ming froze and turned his head to remind Lei He, but saw that his and Yan Xiang's faces were even more ugly than his own, thinking that he had already suffered from fire poison, so he closed his mouth and said no more.
After a while, the two of them temporarily suppressed the fire poison and looked at the red mist in front of them again, but at this moment, Yan Xiang suddenly turned his head and glanced at Yuan Ming.
"Boy, it's time for your spirit beast to come out and explore the way."
Yuan Ming's expression remained unchanged: "The spirit beasts of the younger generation are all carefully cultivated, and there are only one or two of them, it is really inconvenient to use them to explore the way, and I ask the seniors to forgive their sins." ”
Hearing this, Yan Xiang glared at Yuan Ming, and just wanted to speak, but was persuaded by Lei He.
"Okay, time is pressing, don't argue about such a trivial matter, let's do it with me."
Lei He said, raised his hand, and a palm-sized finch flew out of the storage bag, and immediately burrowed into the red mist after receiving the order, and after a few breaths, it came out again.
Lei He sensed the state of the demon sparrow, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the red mist alone will not attract fire poison, so Zhao Gui didn't specifically tell us when he came, so it should be fine." ”
"In that case, it's better to do what I said before, and find each other, so as not to waste time." Yan Xiao nodded and said immediately.
Among the three, he had the largest amount of golden sunflower spirit grass to find, and when he heard Lei He mention the urgency of time, he suddenly felt anxious in his heart.
Seeing him like this, Lei He suddenly proposed: "Okay, but the three of us should also try to find as many as possible, in case someone has bad luck and fails to find a sufficient number." ”
Hearing this, Yan Xiang immediately threw a grateful look at Lei He, such a statement was obviously to take care of him who needed the most golden sunflowers.
Yuan Ming also nodded silently, not planning to conflict with Yan Xiang on these matters.
Then the three of them didn't waste any more time, each picked a direction, and got into the red mist.
Yuan Ming walked in the mist for a while, and when he saw that there was no figure around, he used two things, quietly controlled the first soul in the stealing Tianding, and let him sit on the lotus platform.
In an instant, the divine consciousness of the first soul fell around Yuan Ming, and the red mist was easily penetrated without any hindrance.
However, at this moment, one after another of fire poison climbed up to the divine consciousness cast by the first soul split, trying to find the location of the soul division and scorch the soul body of the soul division.
However, the fire poison spread and wandered in the divine consciousness cast by the split soul, but it was never able to cross the spatial barrier and enter the Heaven Stealing Ding.
Seeing this situation, Yuan Ming secretly said in his heart, sure enough, and then ignored the fire poison that could not cause harm, and explored the stone forest through the divine sense of the first soul.
At this time, Lei He and Yan Xiang were also groping forward in the fog, Yuan Ming checked their situation slightly, and was about to divert his attention, but suddenly found that on the road where Yan Xiang was moving, there were actually two fire beasts wandering.
The appearance of the fire breath beast is similar to that of a mouse, but it is the size of a man in the prime of life, the hair on its body is as red as a flame, and its eyes are yellow and clear, and it can spew fierce fire from its mouth to burn the enemy.
The red mist of the stone forest restricted the monk's divine sense exploration, but the fire breath beast did not seem to be affected too much, and the two heads that Yuan Ming found had now discovered Yan Xiang and were quietly leaning over, as if they wanted to make a surprise attack.
There is not much time to find the blooming golden sunflower, and if you are entangled by the demon beast again, even if you will not be injured, it will greatly affect the search speed.
I don't know if Yan Xiang really had bad luck, or because he caused some strange curse from killing the Fire Horn Alien Race, he didn't even find a golden sunflower, so he was first found by the Fire Breath Beast, and it was probably difficult for him to find the Golden Aoi Spirit Grass.
Yuan Ming chuckled, and then stopped paying attention to Yan Xiang, who had already fought with the Fire Breath Beast, and the divine sense of the first soul dispersed, helping him find the traces of the blooming golden sunflower.
……
After a stick of incense.
In a small clearing between the stone forests, a fire breath beast was lying on the ground and sleeping, but not far away there was a sudden sound of breaking the air, it was immediately alert, and as soon as it raised its head, it opened its mouth to spew flames to resist the enemy, but at this moment, it was suddenly stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed in its eyes.
In the next moment, a small hammer wrapped in thunder light smashed over, smashing the head of the fire breathing beast in one fell swoop, and it was silent on the spot.
Then, Yuan Ming slowly walked out of the red mist, raised his head, and summoned Lei Gong's hammer back.
He stepped forward quickly, ignoring the corpse of the Fire Breath Beast, but cautiously crouched five steps away from the corpse and dug up a blooming golden sunflower spirit grass by the roots.
This is already the third blooming golden sunflower he has found, so it can be regarded as completing the task assigned by Zhao Gui.
Facts have proved that Zhao Gui did not embarrass them, even the golden sunflower in full bloom is not a rare thing in the stone forest, only the red mist that shrouds this place is an obstacle, and I don't know why Zhao Gui can't come here in person.
Yuan Ming had the divine sense of the first soul to assist, and he regarded the red mist as nothing, and the effort spent was much less than expected.
Not only that, but in the process of searching, he also found a few thousand-year-old fire attribute spirit grasses, although there were fire breath beasts guarding him, but he found these demon beasts in advance, and it was not difficult to solve them if he had calculated or not.
Yuan Ming put away the corpses of the Golden Kui Spirit Grass and the Fire Breath Beast, and calculated that there was still some time, and there was a lot of spirit grass in the stone forest, so he was not in a hurry to go back, and continued to search in the stone forest.
But suddenly, he let out a soft sigh, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
Through the divine consciousness cast by the first soul, he suddenly discovered that there was a basin even larger than this one in the distance, surrounded by stone pillars on all sides, connected to each other, and there was only one entrance.
The spiritual grasses in the basin grow extremely vigorously, and there are as many as six or seven golden sunflowers in full bloom alone, not to mention those that are waiting to be released.
The first soul consciousness searched around, and found that there were no fire beasts or other demon beasts in the basin, which made Yuan Ming even more surprised, after all, where the spirit grass is vigorous, it must be a place where the spiritual energy gathers, and the demon beasts like to use this kind of place to build a nest the most, unless it is a match between them.
And the red mist in the stone forest contains fire poison, and the spiritual grass that grows is also a fire attribute, and there can be a place where the spiritual energy gathers that does not match the nature of the fire breath beast?
