Su Chen rode the Jindan Blue Ice Flash Butterfly, flew low in the dense jungle, and passed towards the center of the Wushan Secret Realm.
It was delayed for half a month because of the absorption of Yuan Qi Peach, and it was already a lot behind the other foundation building monks. However, Su Chen had already built the late stage of the foundation, and he had the Jindan Spirit Pet, so he still had enough confidence to grab the remaining Spirit Fruit.
The Blue Ice Butterfly flies fast and travels through thousands of miles of dense jungle in a short time.
Perhaps because of the strong Jindan demon beast aura it exuded, the many fierce demon beasts dormant in the jungle all retreated, and very few dared to provoke it.
Even if it is a Jindan demon beast, before it is clear about the strength of the Blue Ice Flash Butterfly, it will not take the liberty of provoking a strong enemy. The road was naturally quite smooth.
Su Chen was wearing an ice silkworm invisibility cloak, which was inlaid with ice spirit beads to release ice aura, maintaining the cloak's stealth effect, making his figure disappear completely.
Even if there was a foundation monk hiding in the nearby jungle and seeing a Jindan Blue Ice Butterfly flying through the jungle, he couldn't see Su Chen on the back of the Blue Ice Butterfly. I would only think that this was a wild Jindan spirit butterfly flying in the secret territory of Wushan.
Halfway through, Su Chen passed through the thousands of miles of Wushan Secret Realm, and in a deep stream canyon, he accidentally discovered a demon beast's lair, and found the remains of more than a dozen earth demon bears in the foundation building period, which were obviously killed by monks.
Su Chen was also surprised to find that within a radius of ten miles near this earth demon bear's lair, there were still the remains of seven or eight Penglai Immortal Sect disciples scattered. They seem to be two squads, and they should have joined forces to encircle and suppress this nest of the Earth Demon Bear. But for some reason, they all died, and they died in different ways, all over the wounds of swords and magic weapons, and it seemed that after a fierce battle, they suffered heavy losses.
Su Chen inspected their bodies, they were cold, and they had been dead for several days.
He immediately entered the deep stream canyon, the demon nest of the earth demon bear, and quickly found a treasure chest made of third-order dark iron, but it was empty, leaving only a faint fragrance of elixir.
The mysterious spirit fruit inside has already been taken away? It seems that someone has picked up a big bargain.
"It's only been half a month that a monk has grabbed the mysterious spirit fruit, and I'm afraid there won't be much left. Gotta hold on!"
Su Chen couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.
There are no less than dozens of dangerous places in the secret territory of Wushan. But there are only ten places where the spiritual fruit is hidden. If you make a mistake in judgment, not only will your efforts be in vain, but it will also greatly consume your own strength, allowing other monks to take advantage of it.
Su Chen threw the flesh and blood beasts of several demon bears in the foundation building period into the golden gourd to feed the Mithril Spirit Devouring Flying Ants, and without hesitation, he continued to go to the center of the Wushan Secret Realm.
The aura in the central area is the strongest, and the demon beasts that naturally entrench here are also more ferocious, and they have the most hope of finding the spirit fruit.
...
Su Chen rode the blue ice flash butterfly and entered the thousands of miles in the central area of the Wushan Secret Realm.
He soon saw that there were two twin spiritual peaks thousands of zhang in front of him, about dozens of miles apart. Even from a distance, you can feel that these two peaks are full of aura, and they are excellent places for cultivation.
Su Chen looked towards the Twin Peaks.
I saw that the jungle on the spiritual peak in the west was dense, and there were three or four adult two-headed dove demon birds hovering high in the sky, soaring in the sky all the time, guarding the surrounding movements.
"Two-headed dove?!"
Su Chen couldn't help but secretly say, if it wasn't surprising, this Spirit Peak cliff must have many large nests of two-headed doves. Those two-headed doves are just demon birds that keep watch in the sky outside the nest.
The other Lingfeng in the east is bare, strange rocks, and the entire Lingfeng seems to have been burned by fire, and the soil is red.
At the foot of the East Mountain Peak, Su Chen found some fiery red feces larger than a fist, which were easily recognizable from the smell, and they were the excrement of the Jindan Fire Python.
Most of the wild monsters will leave all kinds of urine and feces in their own territory, which strongly threatens and deters other fierce monster races, and is not allowed to break into their territory.
Of course, there are also some monsters who like to hide their whereabouts, which is usually when they are out attacking their prey.
The west and east peaks of this twin spirit peak are respectively entrenched in a nest of two-headed dove demon beasts, as well as a Jindan fire python demon beast, which is obviously an extremely dangerous place, and it is very likely that there is a spirit fruit hidden in it, or even two spirit fruits.
Su Chen was thinking, but he didn't immediately climb the Twin Spirit Peaks to find the Spirit Fruit.
Even if he had the Jindan Blue Ice Flash Butterfly in his hand, if he wanted to deal with a Jindan Fire Python, it was not something that could be done easily. What's more, within a radius of hundreds of miles nearby, there may be other Penglai monk squads lurking, and they may snatch the spirit fruit with a horizontal sword at any time.
Su Chen rode the Blue Ice Flash Butterfly, carefully searching for the traces of the nearby jungle monks.
It took him a day to find the traces left by the other two foundation-building monk gangs at the foot of Lingfeng.
Obviously, there are already other small groups of monks in the late stage of foundation building, eyeing this twin spirit peak. It's just that he is afraid of the strength of the two-headed dove and the Jindan fire python on the Spirit Peak, and he hasn't acted rashly yet.
Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief and waited patiently for the opportunity.
Many foundation-building monks have their eyes on this twin peak. As long as they fight with the demon beasts of the Twin Peaks, they will have the opportunity to go and find the spirit fruit.
...
Twin peaks, at the foot of the mountain.
A team of monks from the Penglai Immortal Sect, three disciples of the late stage of foundation building, have been lurking here for several days, observing the situation of the spirit beasts of the Twin Peaks and discussing countermeasures.
Among them, the leader was a woman in red who was at the peak of the ninth layer of the foundation building period, while the other man in black and a middle-aged burly man were slightly inferior, both of them were at the eighth level of the foundation building period.
"Senior Sister Meng Ran, I have been investigating for a few days, and I have seen it clearly. There are about forty two-headed doves entrenched on the peak of the west mountain, and there are no Jindan-level demon birds. The two-headed dove is very ferocious and ferocious by nature, and loves to hunt snakes and beasts.
And Dongshan Peak is a Jindan fire python, about the realm of the early stage of Jindan, dominating Dongling Peak. It's too strong to compete with the two-headed dove.
With our strength alone, it is not enough to provoke the Jindan Fire Python of the East Mountain Peak and stuff it between its teeth! Only the West Mountain Peak can be considered, but there are too many double-headed doves. But even if it is soft and hard, it takes a long time to hunt the two-headed dove on this peak, and half a year is completely insufficient. ”
The blackfriar whispered.
"Wild demon beasts have low intelligence, and they can completely provoke them to fight each other. Trick the Jindan Fire Python of the East Mountain Peak to attack the two-headed dove of the West Mountain Peak!"
The middle-aged man groaned and said quickly.
Senior Sister Meng also agreed, and said, "This method is feasible! The two of us went to hunt a two-headed dove cub and threw it to Dongling Peak to feed the fire python.
Senior Brother Wang, you go to the east peak to pick up the feces of the fire python and throw it to the west peak.
The monster beast has a strong sense of territory, which angers the two-headed dove, and when they find out that the fire python is invading, they will definitely take revenge on the fire python, and sooner or later they can provoke them to kill each other!
As long as they fight, we can take the opportunity to search their lair and find the Spirit Fruit Treasure Chest. The spiritual fruit harvested this time belongs to me, and next time I will help you win the spiritual fruit!"
The blackfriar and the middle-aged man nodded without objection.
They were born in the three major Jindan families of Meng, Hao, and Wang of Penglai Immortal Sect, and the families have been married to each other for generations and trust each other very much, so they can act together in a group. The three late-stage foundation building monks worked together, so the chances of obtaining the spirit fruit were much higher.
This time, the three of them joined forces to help Meng Ran seize the spirit fruit first. If she was successfully promoted to the rank of Jindan Monk after obtaining the Spirit Fruit, she would be able to give the additional recommendation quota to the other two disciples as compensation in the future. In this way, all three will benefit.
"However, I'm afraid that there are other monk teams nearby, who are also staring at this twin spirit peak. What if they fight?"
The middle-aged man was a little worried.
Each spirit fruit has at least several squads, and one or twenty monks will come to compete for it. It's much more difficult to fight with monks than against those demon beasts. It was difficult for them to predict which monks were lurking nearby, eyeing the Twin Peaks.
Senior Sister Meng didn't have a good countermeasure, shook her head and said, "Regardless of them, we will act when the opportunity arises." Once a war starts, it will be a chaotic war, and no one can predict those opponents. It is not possible to prepare countermeasures in advance. ”
The three of them discussed, the black-clothed monk was the best at concealment, and went to the vicinity of the East Mountain Peak to collect some Jindan Fire Python feces and throw them to the West Mountain Peak.
And Senior Sister Meng and the middle-aged man went to the vicinity of the West Peak to look for an opportunity to hunt the lone two-headed dove.
This is a bit tricky and can't be discovered by other two-headed doves, otherwise this strategy of picking monsters and beasts may not work.
...
Su Chen and the Blue Ice Flash Butterfly quietly lurked near the East Mountain Peak where the Jindan Fire Python was located, patiently observing the timing of their move.
He knew that some of the other monks were also waiting, just to see who could get the first step and get the Mystic Spirit Fruit first.
...
East Mountain Peak.
Halfway up the mountain, inside a giant snake cave.
A Jindan fire python more than ten zhang long is resting in its snake cave.
Not long ago, it hunted and killed a second-order demon leopard, and after dragging it back to the snake cave for a full meal, it slept lazily in the nest and would not go out again for at least a month. For demon beasts, eating and sleeping is cultivation, and cultivation will be strengthened day after day.
However, these two days.
The two-headed dove beast group of Xiling Peak fell into incomparable mania and anger.
Almost every day, they find several young doves that are just beginning to learn to fly being hunted, leaving only debris and blood stains all over the ground.
They also found the feces of the fire python in Xiling Peak, and some of the remains and feathers of the juvenile dove were found in these feces.
The demon dove beast is the natural enemy of the demon snake beast, and it has a huge advantage, usually the demon snake beast does not dare to provoke the demon dove beast, and often only has to be hunted.
It's just that the Jindan Fire Python is so strong that it dominates Dongling Peak, and the two-headed doves don't dare to provoke the Fire Python easily.
However, I didn't expect the Jindan Fire Python to take the initiative to provoke them and kill their young doves, which was simply intolerable.
It wasn't until the third day that the two-headed doves found a nest of doves whose eggs had been torn to pieces, and they also found a piece of golden python feces in their nest.
Such repeated provocations are simply kicking the nose in the face.
The two-headed doves were thoroughly enraged.
Forty or fifty adult two-headed doves circled angrily in the sky, and under the leadership of one of the most majestic two-headed doves in the late stage of foundation building, they flew like a shield from the sky and the sun, flying to Dongling Peak dozens of miles away, to find the Jindan fire python to take revenge.
When the Jindan fire python heard the sound of the huge dove barking outside the peak, he couldn't help but slide the body of the huge python for more than ten zhang, and he was surprised to get out of the snake cave, and saw a group of two-headed doves circling and screaming above the Lingfeng, and was a little confused.
It also wondered why this large flock of two-headed doves was so angry and came to its trouble. Perhaps because of its natural fear, it seldom provokes the two-headed doves on the opposite peak, even if they are slightly weaker.
"Chirp~!"
As soon as the two-headed doves saw this Jindan fire python appear, they immediately saw a mortal enemy. When the enemy saw each other, they frantically flapped their wings, and a large piece of wind blades blew past.
The majesty of the Jindan Fire Python is also inviolable, it was attacked by splitting its head and covering its face for no reason, and it was also angry, and immediately spat out a raging fireball, and bombarded the large group of two-headed doves.
A raging fireball flew into the sky, instantly burning the two-headed dove that could not dodge into two gray coals. But the other two-headed doves were undaunted and scattered in all directions, frantically besieging the Jindan Fire Python.
The two sides immediately fought together in chaos, killing in the dark, from the east mountain peak to the bottom of the valley.
The nearby monk team all looked nervous. Fortunately, the demon beasts of this Twin Peaks were provoked to fight each other, otherwise with their strength, neither side would be helpless.
"It worked, and they really hit the plan, and they started fighting. Quick, let's go to the Jindan Fire Python's lair to find the spirit fruit!"
Meng Ran, the black-clothed monk, the middle-aged man and the other three were overjoyed when they saw this, and immediately jumped up from the hidden place and rushed quickly towards the mountainside of Dongling Peak.
"Do you want to divide one person and go to the nest of the two-headed dove to see? Maybe you can get another spirit fruit!"
"No, some other monk squads are also staring at this, if we disperse our strength, it will not be easy to grab the spirit fruit. The western peak of the two-headed dove is left to the rest of the monk team. ”
...
The three of them were in the late stage of foundation building, and they were rushing towards the fire python's nest.
"Whoosh——!
At this time, he saw a blue ice light shadow at a faster speed, a few flickering, surpassing the three foundation building monks, towards the mountainside of the East Spirit Peak.
Meng Ran, the black-clothed monk and the middle-aged man, the three of them only saw a burst of light and shadow flying from the side, and they were all stunned.
The speed of that blue ice was terrifying.
Even a Jindan-level flying spirit beast may not be able to reach such a speed!
The three of them were even more out of reach, watching the blue ice light and shadow, and swayed away.
"What's that?"
"The speed was so blurry that I couldn't see it clearly. It seems to be a blue ice shadow, I don't know what it is... What is it doing here?"
"No, he went straight in the direction of the Fire Python Cave?.... Is this to rob the spirit fruit? Hurry up, stop him!"
Meng Ran suddenly woke up.
The three late-stage foundation building monks immediately burned their eyebrows, extremely anxious, and rushed towards the Fire Python Cave at full speed. They finally provoked the twin peaks to fight each other, but they were picked up by others.
...
However, I saw that the blue ice light and shadow with rare speed directly and quickly passed through the mountainside for more than ten miles, surpassing Meng Ran and the other three late-stage foundation building monks, as well as some other monks who were just about to leave the monk team, and rushed directly into the snake cave of the Jindan Fire Python.
