Chapter 40: Red Ice Mulberry, Valley
Burst......
There was a mushy smell coming out of the small hole of the lid of the alchemy furnace, and Zheng Shiqi only knew that the success rate of alchemists refining unfamiliar pills was not high, but his face darkened. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info guarded next to Zhang Guang, who was stung like a pig's head by a green bamboo bee, and his whole heart hung in his throat.
Lu Xiaotian's face was not discolored, and he casually performed a water balloon technique to clean the impurities in the tripod, and the serum pill was a second-level detoxification elixir. The elixir that can only be refined by an intermediate alchemist, he has never refined.
However, the success rate of his refining Qi Gathering Pill was already close to fifty percent, and in terms of strength, he had already been an intermediate alchemist. Usually, the difficulty of refining the elixir that can be cultivated intensively and increasing the cultivation speed is higher than that of other elixirs. The difficulty of the serum pill is not high, and the time to become a pill is also short, only about half an hour.
After the first furnace was wasted, Lu Xiaotian had a bottom in his heart, and after cleaning Xiaoding with ease, he continued to raise the fire to refine the second furnace.
Half an hour passed in a flash, and a burst of fragrance rose in the Dan furnace, which made people's blood condense.
Open the furnace and test the Dan!
Of the two blood-colored pills, one of them was significantly fuller, and there were two more pill lines.
"Medium-grade serum pill!" Fan Qing stood closer, and first exclaimed, looking at Lu Xiaotian with a surprised expression, "Lu Xiaoyou's attainments in alchemy are really amazing. ”
Not only Fan Qing, but others were also shocked. The first furnace is still a waste pill, in this case, it is not possible for ordinary alchemists to refine a medium-grade pill in the second furnace.
"I said a long time ago, Brother Lu is a very powerful alchemist, you still don't believe it. Luo Qing said happily, as if the elixir was refined by her.
"It's just luck. Lu Xiaotian smiled indifferently and handed the medium-grade serum pill to Zheng Shiqi.
Zheng Shiqi was pleasantly surprised, he originally thought that Lu Xiaotian could refine it into a pill, but he didn't expect it to be a medium-grade serum pill. After thanking him, Zheng Shiqi hurriedly stuffed the pill into Zhang Guang's mouth with water.
"Now that Zhang Daoyou has taken the pill, we have already delayed a lot of time, and we must hurry as soon as possible, otherwise once it gets dark, we can't rush to the gathering point of scattered cultivation, and we will be in trouble later. Let's take turns carrying Zhang Daoyou on the road. Seeing Zhang Guang taking the pill, Fan Qing said.
Out of the need to hurry, the speed of the group was much faster than before. Lu Xiaotian understood why in the Mochizuki Mountain Range, the threat from other monks was greater than that of demon beasts. After finally avoiding the attack of the green bamboo bee, he encountered several artificial traps. However, according to Fan Qing, who has entered the Moon Mountain Range several times, and Luo Yuan, there are not many people walking on this trail, and there are fewer traps than other places.
For example, there are several spirit stones and storage bags scattered next to a fallen corpse. A few obvious ones, but the terrain is dangerous, easy to ambush, and no one has picked the spirit grass. It's just that Lu Xiaotian looked carefully, and he could faintly find some blood stains among the grass that had not dried up, and traces of battle that had not been dealt with, obviously before them, someone had already been ambushed, and someone had already died.
With the lesson of the green bamboo bee, everyone in the team did not rush over recklessly, but rushed directly. No more adventures for such scattered spiritual objects.
"Red Ice Mulberry!" When passing through a mountain col, Lu Xiaotian found that between several large stones, there was a young spirit tree that grew no more than a foot high, and the leaves were red like the palm of a human hand, exuding aura.
"What's the matter, Lu Xiaoyou is interested in the Red Ice Mulberry, this Red Ice Mulberry has to grow for more than a hundred years to be valuable, and our scattered cultivation longevity in the Qi refining period is only about a hundred years. Can't afford to wait. Moreover, it is extremely difficult for Chibing Mulberry to be transplanted successfully, otherwise it would have been taken away long ago. ”
Fan Qing was in the middle of the team, and when he saw Lu Xiaotian stop, he couldn't help but smile.
"Maybe it will succeed, but if it fails to build a foundation, it is good to leave it to my nephews. ”
Lu Xiaotian carefully dug the red ice mulberry out of the ground to avoid hurting its roots, and took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention and sent it into the enchantment.
Usually a hundred years of red ice mulberry is valuable, after the ice silkworm eats the leaves of the hundred years of red ice mulberry, it will spit out ice silk, which is extremely tough, and can be used to weave into soft armor, its protective power is extremely rare in spiritual weapons, ordinary spiritual weapons can not cut it, and it can also resist a certain amount of spell damage, especially for fire attribute spells, the effect is more significant.
Even compared to some low-level magic weapons, it is not far behind. For other monks, the Chibing Mulberry is a bit of a chicken, and the ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator's longevity is only about a hundred years, so he can't afford to wait at all, if he can last until the Chibing Mulberry is enough, it is estimated that he will also reach the foundation building period.
And the protection power of casting mid-level spells during the foundation building period is not inferior to that of ice silk silkworm armor. Therefore, the people of the team couldn't look at this kind of red ice mulberry that was only a few years old. Only the family of immortal cultivators in Mochizuki City, or the families with orderly inheritance in the sect of immortal cultivators, may have this kind of spiritual object. After all, only after a few generations can it be used by future generations of Qi refining stage cultivators.
Chi Bing Sang's requirements were extremely demanding, but in Lu Xiaotian's opinion, it was easy for him. As long as you transplant it into the barrier and then apply enough spirit stones as fertilizer, you can give birth to the year of the Red Ice Mulberry.
"Brother Lu has good intentions. Zheng Shiqi sighed.
The team traveled hundreds of miles, and a river about fourteen or fifteen zhang wide stopped in front of them. When the team appeared by the river, there was a ripple on the surface of the water, and layers of fine ripples rippled on the clear Los Angeles.
Lu Xiaotian fixed his eyes on the clouds, and saw a few cyan giant crocodiles faintly appearing in the river. The adult green crocodile is more than two feet long, although it is only a second-order demon beast, but the physical strength far exceeds that of the monks of the same level, even the monks in the late stage of qi refining are not comparable, if they unfortunately fall into the water, there is a chance that they will be eaten by the green crocodile.
The green crocodile also seemed to smell the breath of the living, and in a short time, more than a dozen green crocodiles of different sizes gathered in this water.
"He Huozi, you took us to copy the path, there is such a dangerous situation, how do you say we should live now?" Wang Ping waved his iron rod and looked at He Huozi in annoyance, as if He Huozi was about to fight without giving a reasonable explanation.
"That is, if the nine of us fall into the water, it will not be enough for these green crocodiles to stuff their teeth. Luo Qing took a step back in fear, standing between Luo Yuan and Lu Xiaotian, and only then did he feel a little safe.
"These evil animals, but they have a good nose, you Taoist friends are a little restless, since I take everyone to copy the path, there is naturally a solution. He Huozi smiled, took out a yellow paper bag from the storage bag and opened it, revealing a package of black powder, which emitted a strange smell and was very fishy.
"Demon exorcism powder!" The others did not recognize the origin of the black powder, but Fan Qing screamed out loud.
"I got it by accident, and it didn't work much. But it can be used to dispel low-level demon beasts. It is naturally far from the real demon exorcism powder, but it is enough to deal with these second-order green crocodiles. ”
He Huozi took a little of the black powder from the yellow paper bag and threw it into the water. The black powder melted as soon as it entered the water, and at the same time, several fist-sized blisters rose, and a brutal, heart-pounding breath melted from the water. More than a dozen green crocodiles suddenly scattered in panic like frightened birds.
"The breath can only last for a pillar of incense for a long time, take advantage of now. ”
He Huozi carefully put away the yellow paper bag, pulled a green vine from the bushes by the river, threw it at a big tree with a thick hug on the river, and wrapped it around the big tree. He blessed himself with another weight loss technique, pulled the green vine hard, and clicked a few times in the river, and then successfully jumped to the other side of the river.
Ordinary Qi Refining Period cultivators did not have the ability to fly, and even with the help of the Wind Resisting Technique, a maximum distance of five or six zhang was only possible in a single leap. Only when you enter the construction period can you have the magic power of soaring clouds and fog and flying with a sword. However, without the threat of the green crocodile in the river, after having a borrowing point, the fifteen or sixteen zhang river could not stop the team of people.
Lu Xiaotian also did the same, pulling a green vine to borrow strength on the surface of the water once or twice, and also arrived on the other side.
The medicinal effect of the medium-grade serum pill is good, and after rushing for another hour, Zhang Guang, who was stung by the green bamboo bee, woke up quietly, and then vomited violently, and a large amount of filth spit out from his mouth, emitting a foul smell, which was a toxin accumulated in the body. Although the person was sinned, after spitting out the filth, his blue and black face looked much better.
After driving more than a hundred miles, perhaps the reason for going deeper into the Mochizuki Mountain Range, the aura around him was obviously much richer than when he just left the city. At this time, the sky had begun to darken, and in the valley, the howls of all kinds of strange demon beasts became more and more dense.
Lu Xiaotian followed the team to a valley, flanked by towering cliffs, the entrances on both sides of the valley are extremely narrow, and the middle area is open, which can accommodate thousands of people, easy to defend and difficult to attack, this kind of favorable terrain, once it encounters the impact of the demon beast herd, the scattered cultivators can quickly react and form a formation to resist.
There are a large number of squads of monks scattered throughout the valley, each entrenched in a small territory. Torches lit everywhere illuminate the valley.
"Cockscomb Bloodstone, sell Cockscomb Bloodstone. As long as there are five low-grade spirit stones, or equivalent pills, healing pills are fine!"
"If you want to buy black jade bone paste, I am willing to give out three lower grade spirit stones, and I want to buy black jade bone paste at a high price!"
"Second-Order Demon Beast, Black-Horned Giant Rhino Demon Pill ......"
Some of the scattered cultivators in the valley have been in the mountains for a few days, and they have gained quite a bit. Because of the exhaustion of healing medicine, the elixir, the purchase of medicines, the sale of spirit grass, and the various voices of the demon pill were endless, and Lu Xiaotian listened with interest.
"After such a long journey, everyone has worked hard, rest for the night, recuperate your spirits, and there may be a vicious fight tomorrow. Fan Qing commanded.
The monks in the valley are roughly divided into three factions, one is the immortal soldiers sent by Mochizuki City to guard, once the valley is attacked by demon beasts, the scattered cultivators are uneven, and lack of unified command, these people are the backbone of the guards.
One faction is the adventure team of the Mochizuki City Immortal Cultivation Family, these people are equipped with excellent spirit weapons, whether it is the spirit knife in their hands, the spirit sword, or the armor on their bodies, they are obviously better.
The last faction is Lu Xiaotian's scattered cultivation team, which has a large number of people, but each has its own calculations. The scattered cultivators are scattered, but on the whole, the three factions are distinct. Each occupies a large area.
