With Xiao Yufan's hurrying speed, the land of a hundred miles should have arrived in a few hours, but in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm, it is obviously unrealistic to want to rush all the way.
Although the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm is only open to Qi Gathering Stage monks, it does not mean that there are no powerful existences in it, and there are actually quite a few demon beasts capable of killing Foundation Stage monks.
There were even a few extremely powerful sixth-order demon beasts roaming around the core area, which were comparable to those of a Jiedan monk.
Encountering any of them is a certain death situation, and in front of the sixth-order demon beasts, even if the thousands of monks who have entered the medicine realm join forces this time, it is not enough to see.
In addition, there are thousands of dangerous areas in the medicine realm, and these areas themselves are invisible traps for killing people, and with the slight deeds of the monks of the Qi Gathering Period, one may die without even the scum left.
Therefore, every time the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm is opened, thousands of Qi Gathering Period cultivators enter it, and in the end, only three or five hundred people can be teleported out alive.
There were even a few times, because it angered the sixth-order demon beasts, it attracted a crazy hunt and killing, and it was not unheard of that the entire army was wiped out.
Although Xiao Yufan's detailed collection of information at hand is very detailed, compared to the entire Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm, the various records in it are just a drop in the ocean.
Yes, in this hundred miles away, Xiao Yufan also walked cautiously, bypassing the unknown area as much as possible.
If you have to cross, you also have an extra mind, after all, your own strength is only strong in the same rank, if you encounter the danger that even the monks in the foundation building period can't escape, maybe you will fall here.
The journey of cultivating immortals is like walking a tightrope on that cliff, no matter how high the talent and qualifications are, no matter how strong the background is, a gust of wind blows, and it falls down when it is said to fall, and it is broken to pieces.
Especially in the early stage, there was no shortage of geniuses in the Three Realms, but how many of the thousands of geniuses became the power of the gods, became the most holy existence, and became the strongest Void Immortals in the Three Realms?
The answer is almost nothing, because in the process of many geniuses advancing towards the highest goal, ninety-nine percent of the geniuses have fallen.
This is a truth that Tianxingzi once repeatedly instilled in Xiao Yufan, in his original words.
"Apprentice, if you want to hold your woman one day, lie comfortably in the round room of the Great Freedom Demon Sect's Sect, and let that Tang Jingyun guard the door for you."
"Then take good care of your own life, the way of cultivating immortals is to act against the sky, there are too many possibilities for you to fall before you set foot on the top, only alive can there be hope, remember!"
Calculating the time, Xiao Yufan has been on the road for nearly two hours, and he has encountered three or five small dangers along the way, but as a scavenger who has been crawling and rolling in such a dangerous place as the Blood Wasteland for eight years, Xiao Yufan almost avoided them all with little effort.
And at this moment, he finally found a piece of land that has been marked in the data atlas - Tuyan Valley.
Tuyan Valley, sixty miles northwest of the core area of the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm, is rich in second-order elixir fire pole fruit, third-order elixir cold flame flower, because of the strange terrain and full of various unstable factors, its regional danger coefficient is rated as three stars, it is recommended to organize a team of monks to enter it to explore.
Xiao Yufan himself didn't have much interest in this Tuyan Valley, but if he took a detour, not only would he have to walk dozens of miles, but he would also have to pass through some unknown regions, which was obviously not a good idea.
Yes, after just a pause, Xiao Yufan flew without hesitation and jumped into the Tuyan Valley, which was blue and red on the surface.
The scope of Tuyan Valley seemed to be wider than that of the corpse swamp, Xiao Yufan's purpose was to cross the canyon and continue his journey, of course, there was no reason to miss the elixir he saw along the way.
Xiao Yufan's luck was still quite good, and he was only halfway ahead when he found a pile of cold flame flowers more than a hundred zhang away, and there were more than thirty or fifty of them.
The value of the third-order elixir was almost a hundred times that of the second-order elixir, Xiao Yufan naturally would not let go of a lot of elixir, but he did not start immediately, the good habits he had cultivated over the years in the Blood Wasteland made him observe the surrounding environment in advance.
This look suddenly made Xiao Yufan discover a trace of strangeness.
The pile of cold flame flowers seems to be full of flowers and vibrant, but if you look closely, you can find that there are some traces of scorched yellow on the leaves.
According to the introduction of Lengyanhua in the detailed collection of information, once this elixir is picked out of the soil, it will have a slight burnt yellow color on the leaf surface to varying degrees.
"It's a trap"
Obviously, the pile of cold flame flowers outside Baizhang was not originally grown here, but someone deliberately did it to create this eye-catching scene.
With this discovery, Xiao Yufan quickly discovered two more things that were wrong.
One is that in a dense forest near the left of the cold flame flowers, a trace of extremely subtle sound fluctuations can be faintly heard, but when it is swept by the divine sense, there is no trace of human existence.
The second is that on the right side of the cold flame flower pile, there is a boulder with a height of two feet, at first glance it seems to be a cliff falling rock, which is not very unusual, but if you look closely, the surface of the stone is very smooth, and there is no trace of falling from a height.
"This is clearly a trap set by a team of monks who want to eat black, there are people in ambush on the left and right, as long as anyone is tempted by the pile of cold flame flowers, and comes forward and enters their attack range, it will definitely attract their combined killing blow. ”
"Such a trap is in an extremely dangerous place like the Blood Wasteland, that is, pediatrics. ”
"The calculation is on my head, interesting!"
Xiao Yufan's talent and even experience in calculating and counter-calculating are extremely strong, and being able to work alone in the Blood Wasteland for so many years and still live to this day, especially at the beginning, Xiao Yufan didn't even have the cultivation in the early stage of Qi Gathering, which is enough to prove this.
The moment he saw through the trap, the idea of making a windfall was born, and Xiao Yufan still looked dazed and walked towards the cold flame flower bait you had piled up.
It's just that when passing through a dense forest, Xiao Yufan suddenly stumbled under his feet, and his body flew out uncontrollably, as if he was dragged away by some irresistible force.
At the same time, Xiao Yufan let out a series of dying cries for help, and in the blink of an eye, he had fallen into the dense jungle and disappeared, and even the sound stopped abruptly.
At the same time, a troll monk with a cold killing intent in his eyes walked out from behind the boulder on the right side of the cold flame flower pile.
In the dense forest on the left, two Daredevil monks, a man and a woman, also walked out.
