Chapter 40: The Swirl of the Sun (Part II)
"So, when I'm in the team, he's going to think I'm the most likely threat to him. And, according to my observation, the reason why Xiong Sihe did this was also because of the encouragement of the elders. After a pause, he said.
"Then what should we do?" Ning Hong was obviously a little worried, after all, he was notoriously ruthless in the rivers and lakes.
"Just wait and see what happens", Shi Yixian is not very worried, although he is strong in old martial arts, he still doesn't pay attention to it, he just cares about his senior sister and Miss Yin, after all, he can't be by their side anytime and anywhere.
"I'll pay attention to Sister Tianyue. Ning Hong said to Shi Yi.
Speaking of Yin Tianyue, Shi Yi was full of gratitude to her, after all, it was really rare to be able to stand up and defend himself in such an environment. I can't say it, and I can't let Senior Sister and Miss Yin have an accident in this mission.
......
After the night, everyone's spirits recovered a lot, and they hurriedly continued to hurry.
......
The Vortex Sun Swamp is the only swamp in the Barbarian Land. There are too many rotting corpses in the swamp, so that the air in the swamp is full of miasma, and even the barbarians cannot live in the swamp, and they only operate on the periphery of the swamp, but it is precisely because of this unique condition in the swamp that there are also some medicinal materials that have been extinct in the outside world, one of which is the most important for the barbarians, called "Tianlu Grass" Combined with some other medicines, refining them can help break through the bottleneck of congenital consummation and reach the transformation realm, which is the most important thing for the sparse number of barbarians.
Due to the scarcity of the number of people, there are not many masters who can reach the innate realm, and among so many innate masters, the ones who can break through the transformation realm are even rarer. So much so that the number of people who can reach the Transformation Realm master in the entire Barbarian Land does not seem to be more than the number of hands in the eyes of the outside world. This shows how much attention the barbarians attach to this "heavenly dew grass".
And the Voryang people are the tribes living around the swamp, their perennial life has paved a road to reach the center of the swamp, they are just some wooden stakes tied together with ropes, not to mention that people who do not have a certain strength can not pass, this road is regarded as a forbidden place, usually except for the patriarch and the worship of the rest of the people are difficult to enter.
......
In the center of the Swirl Swamp, on top of a newly built altar.
"Master Tianyu, may I ask how the Tianlu Pill is refined?" an old man who was already in the age of the sixtieth year asked indifferently, this old man was different from ordinary barbarians, with white hair and white beard, and his hands behind his back, he looked like a fairy wind and bones. Moreover, the surrounding miasma was a few centimeters away from his body, but it was difficult to get close.
The person being questioned was sitting cross-legged on an altar not far away, and there was an alchemy furnace in front of him, but he kept forgetting to throw some medicinal herbs into the furnace, and he didn't pinch the fingers of his left hand and put a flame under the furnace. It turned out to be an immortal cultivator, but it was as if the old man had already known that this seemingly young person was an immortal cultivator.
This immortal cultivator looked to be about thirty years old, dressed in black and red clothes, and there were two vermilion marks above his eyebrows. The most special thing is that there are two red jade pendants around the waist, although the appearance is different, but it flashes one after another, emitting a blood-red light.
This immortal cultivator's name is Ghost Leech, Ghost Leech opened his eyes, and smiled evilly, "Why should Elder Feng worry, this refining Tianlu Pill is not an overnight thing, besides, you are still a little short of the sacrifice I asked you to prepare!" At the end, his voice suddenly rose up.
"Hmph, Brother Ghost Leech, that's not right, I said that I would give you a hundred sacrifices when I got Tianlu Dan, but now I have already given you half of the sacrifices, but I haven't even seen half of Tianlu Dan's shadow, shouldn't there be an explanation?
Feng Lao said coldly.
"Hehe, Elder Feng doesn't have to be angry, Tianlu Dan will be refined in three days soon, it's just a sacrifice?" asked the ghost leech evilly.
"Don't worry, the sacrifices have already been prepared, as long as the Tianlu Pill refining is completed, the number of sacrifices will be given to you one by one. Feng Lao's tone was also softened.
"Hehe, that's good. Oh, by the way, I heard that a group of nine knights from the Tang Kingdom appeared among the barbarians not long ago, but does Elder Feng know about this?"
"Hmph, just a bunch of people looking for death. Feng Lao disdainful.
"Then how did I hear that even the five poisons of Nanyi and the impermanence of black and white have died at their hands, such a group of people stay in the barbarian land, can you old guys still sit still?"
"It's not your Excellency's bother, the five poisons and the black and white impermanence of that group of waste, even a few people can't clean it up, and it's a waste to live. Feng Lao sneered.
"Elder Feng, how do I feel that they are here in the Vortex Sun Swamp? If this is the case, you still have to be prepared in advance. I'm not going to do it for you. Leech said evilly.
"Hmph. If they dare to come, I will let them come and never return. ”
"Oh, if that's the case, can you leave their bodies to me?" said the leech's eyes lit up.
"It turns out that after talking for a long time, you hit this idea. Feng Lao said with a narrowing of his eyes.
"Hehe, the essence blood of the innate master is better than the essence blood of ordinary people, and it is useless for you to keep it, it is better to give it to me, so that I can make the best use of it." Leech said as if he didn't care.
"It's not impossible to give it to you, but Tianlu Dan must be successfully refined as soon as possible, which is related to whether our clan can produce another transformation realm master, and I hope you do your best. Feng Lao said.
"That being the case. That's it. "The ghost leech glanced at Feng Lao evilly, and thought in his heart that when my Shuangyi ghost refining was successful, the lives of your clan would not be my final say.
......
"It turns out that this is the Vortex Sun Swamp, and it's really extraordinary. ”
He said with a smile.
But it was a group of nine people, at this time they were already standing on the periphery of the Vortex Yang Swamp, and after the group rested at that time, it was not good to delay and rush immediately, although they experienced several waves of interceptions on the way, but the highest cultivation was only in the late stage of congenital, and they were still not the opponents of their group of people, and they became the souls of their subordinates. Among them, Xiong Sihe killed the most people, as if these people had a deep hatred with him, but it is unknown whether they really have a grudge or vent the anger in their hearts, and Shi Yi didn't say anything after seeing it. However, Xiong Sihe was a lot more stable along the way, and he also knew that he might be looking for trouble with Shi Yi, and Shi Yi didn't mind letting him stay in the swamp completely.
The last time to rush for a while. I don't know why I would discuss a thing or two with Shi Yi every time, and everyone didn't say anything, and Shi Yi himself just dealt with it every time.
"Rest and recuperate, we'll be in the swamp early tomorrow morning. He turned to everyone and said.
When everyone heard this, they also looked for a place to rest, and I have to say that they were already a little tired after many days of hurrying. However, at this time, everyone still didn't dare to relax their vigilance too much.
......
"Senior brother, why are you so worried, it's so difficult that you found something?" Ning Hong asked when she was resting, and she also looked at Shi Yi, who frowned.
Hearing this, Shi Yi glanced at Ning Hong, and said a little solemnly, "I can't say it either, I always feel a little restless." Shi Yi hadn't said anything about his worries, and the immortal cultivator seemed to be able to feel some uneasy factors in it, and this uncertain factor was not the uneasiness of facing a realm master like Elder Ling Feng.
After listening to Shi Yi's words, Ning Hong was also a little dignified, it was indeed very strange, when she was in a hurry before, she would often encounter people who blocked her, but it seemed that after stepping into the Vortex Yang Swamp, no one intercepted her.
"Senior brother, did you mean that you didn't encounter anyone who intercepted you after arriving at this Vortex Yang Swamp?" Ning Hong obviously thought that Shi Yi was worried about this.
Hear the words. Shi Yi also nodded, he couldn't tell Ning Hong about his worries instead of this, which would only increase Ning Hong's worries.
In fact, everyone had already discovered this matter, but everyone knew in their hearts that at this time, they would not return if they said anything, and in the eyes of everyone, even if they were masters of the transformation realm, they would not have the strength to fight.
"Senior sister, it's better to be careful after entering the swamp. I can't think of a better way for a while, so I can only say it for the time being.
Ning Hong also nodded, but her expression was a little more solemn.
......
Early the next morning, everyone was also preparing to enter the swamp, but fortunately, everyone's martial arts were good, and the wooden stakes built by the Vortex Yang people were effortless for them to walk. It's just a matter of being aware of some miasma in the swamp.
I can't really tell how big the Vortex Swamp is, anyway, everyone has been walking for more than an hour and hasn't come to the end.
Everyone was a little anxious, according to the information provided by the head of the Gongsun family, the fire refining grass was in the center, but there was really no clue where it was.
When they came to a fork in the road, they found two forks in the road, which was difficult for everyone, and it was impossible for so many people to walk for a day at the same time. If they were separated, they would probably be in danger if they met the Vortex Yang Clan's worship, and everyone didn't speak for a while.
Seeing this situation, the elder also said with a solemn expression, "You have come to this point, and you will definitely not be willing to give up." In this way, there are two roads here, we will walk in two teams, two people from the Gongsun family will go all the way, and the road will be marked. In this way, it is good to have a response to danger. As long as one team has explored one of the roads and immediately returns to reinforce the other team, shall we?"
The two black-clothed men of the Gongsun family also nodded when they heard this, and only the divine shooting crossbow they carried on their backs could threaten the masters of the transformation realm, and it was true that only two people separated from each other could explore the two paths at the same time.
