Chapter 267: Corpse Kui
"Ha, what a big elixir, exuding a thick aura all around, at first glance it is an extraordinary thing, no one should rob me, I saw it first, I want it, grow in this place with abundant aura, maybe it can be sold for a good price." Wang Lianhua, who was marching, suddenly pointed to the distance and said excitedly, and then couldn't wait to step forward.
About three hundred zhang away from them was a huge flower growing in the direction Wang Lianhua was pointing, and the thick petals were shrouded in a faint light, and from a distance it was the size of a basin, and the actual volume should be the size of an adult.
Wang Lianhua had just taken two steps when a figure was already in front of him.
"Zhong Daoyou, what do you mean, could it be that you also have a fancy for this elixir, and you can't compete with me?" Wang Lianhua asked with a jealous stare at Zhong Mingjiao.
"Friend, I just don't want you to die, it's not an elixir, it's a corpse. There is a layer of companion leeches that are difficult to see with the naked eye within ten zhang around it, unless you have a physical defense method like Zhang Daochang or a superb defensive magic weapon and it is in an active state, otherwise you will definitely die if you enter the range of ten zhang of the companion leech. Zhong Ming, who has always been indifferent, explained so much in one breath.
"What Zhong Daoyou said should be true, Lao Wang, have you found it, there are not even small fish and plankton within ten zhang of the elixir, and I have also heard of the poison of corpse sunflower, which is often accompanied by this strange companion corpse leech, once it enters the body of the living being, it will quickly take root and suck the vitality of the living soul in an instant. The head of the Yuanzhen Dao also started a round on the side.
"It's not that I can't believe Zhong Daoyou, but ......" Wang Lianhua said hesitantly, her expression was more tangled.
"There's nothing to do, and since you don't believe it, I'll prove it to you. Zhong Ming directly interrupted Wang Lianhua's words, and the whole person rushed towards the corpse sunflower.
When he was ten zhang away from the corpse, a cloud of green gas suddenly appeared on Zhong Ming's body, and suddenly, there seemed to be some extremely small things in the void that came into contact with the green gas on his body and emitted black smoke that was baked, and at the same time there was an extremely unpleasant stench in the air.
When approaching the range of the corpse kui, Zhong Ming suddenly stopped, his hands were constantly changing, and finally the palms were clasped and turned out, and the thumbs of both hands were butted with the tiger's mouth to form a strange magic seal, and a green light burst out from his seal, followed by the second and third paths, in just two breaths, Zhong Ming released more than a dozen green air arrows, all of which were shot on the corpse kui.
"Buzz" There was a circle of ripples in the air, Zhong Ming's body was forced to fly backwards, there were more than a dozen small holes where the corpse sunflower was hit, and streams of thick black sewage flowed out from the inside, the corpse sunflower twisted its body wildly, and then the petals on the corpse sunflower seemed to be alive, one by one, and every time it opened and closed, a large puff of black smoke was spit out.
Immediately, a series of bubbles bubbled out of the clear water of the swamp, and the originally calm swamp continued to shake and tremble, and the figure of the corpse sunflower rooted in the water suddenly skyrocketed more than ten times, looking like a flower-like house. Immediately, arm-thick rhizomes were drawn from under the water, waving like a raging storm, the whip was swung extremely fast, Zhong Ming was caught off guard by a whip, and the whole person was thrown out like a broken kite, and the green robe wrapped around was directly shredded, revealing the thin skeleton-like body below.
After striking the bell, the corpse sunflower did not stop, but wrapped in a fishy wave of water, rushing towards Lu Xu and them, looking less like a plant, more like a huge jellyfish waving countless tentacles.
As soon as Monk Yuanzhen saw Zhong Ming move, he immediately shouted: "It's not good, this corpse sunflower seems to have a spiritual intelligence, the territorial awareness of plants is particularly strong, and it is definitely immortal to provoke it, but fortunately, the combat power of low-level monsters in the plant class is not particularly strong, take this opportunity to kill it." ”
Under the overall command of the Yuanzhen monk, Lu Xu and the others rushed up to fight with the corpse sunflower, Lu Xu completely opened the Yuan magnetic hegemony body, and at the same time, with a move of the sleeve robe, the cyan flying sword was suspended in front of him, while dodging the attack of the whip, he used the flying sword to leave clear slash marks on the corpse sunflower's body.
Although Wang Lianhua's flying needle magic weapon is an extremely difficult magic weapon to defend, the damage he inflicted on Corpse Kui is not as good as Lu Xu's, and every time Lu Xu's silver flying sword swings, more than a dozen sword shadows are conjured, and the black water on the corpse Kui is direct.
As Zhong Ming came back to join the battle circle, the corpse sunflower was completely in a desperate situation, and the battle lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour, and finally after being hit by the three fire snake talismans of the Yuanzhen monk, the whole corpse sunflower immediately fell still, and the whole body shrank back to its original appearance.
"I don't understand, why provoke this plant demon beast for nothing, I didn't get any benefits, and I consumed so much mana. Wang Lianhua was very annoyed and dissatisfied.
"There are many benefits, the corpse sunflower that has produced spiritual wisdom has not only produced corpse beads in the body, but also the value of this corpse bead is extremely great, and it can be sold for at least hundreds of spirit stones in the outside world, and each of us can share nearly a hundred spirit stones in this item alone, and the corpse water of the corpse sunflower is of great use to me, it can increase the power of my secret method of refining the corpse by fifty percent, and finally the flesh of the corpse sunflower, although it has no direct effect on us, can be used to refine the elixir, and it is worth hundreds of spirit stones on the market." Probably because he killed the corpse Kui, he was happy, and Zhong Ming suddenly became talkative.
Hearing that all the harvests were added together, each person could share more than 100 spirit stones, Wang Lianhua was also excited, although he was also a late stage of the Qi refining period, but hundreds of spirit stones were also a large amount.
"I don't want the corpse bead flesh, the corpse water is useless to you, I want the corpse water as the reward for this battle, what do you do with the rest!" Zhong Ming waited for everyone to digest the information before he spoke.
Wang Lianhua and Monk Yuanzhen both nodded in agreement, and to their surprise, the Taoist Zhang Sanfeng seemed to be distracted, until Zhong Ming's eyes were fixed on him, and he showed a strange look to him, he suddenly came back to his senses and said, "I'm casual." ”
Hearing that Lu Xu said casually, the three of them, including Zhong Ming, nodded, but everyone was a little curious about why he was distracted just now, but it was inconvenient to ask.
"Since Daochang Zhang has said so, then let's do what Zhong Daoyou said. "Yuanzhen monk said.
Lu Xu was distracted just now because he received a summons from Long Er, and the other party informed him of two things, the first of which was that this corpse seemed to be a little strange underground.
The second thing is that Long Er seems to have captured the breath of the Innate Five Elements Lingzhen, that is to say, in the swamp area within a radius of dozens of miles, there is this Innate Five Elements Lingzhen, according to the breath captured by Long'er, it can be judged that the attribute of Lingzhen is earth, and he only entered the Lost Land for a few hours before he got the news of Lingzhen, which was somewhat of an encouragement to Lu Xu.
Thinking that there must be a powerful demon beast guarding the innate Five Elements Lingzhen, Lu Xu had already made up his mind to lure the Yuanzhen monk and them over as helpers, even if it was to distract the energy of the guardian demon beast.
Among the four people, only Zhong Ming practiced the practice of refining the corpse, so he was naturally not afraid of corpse qi, whether it was taking corpse beads or corpse water, he would complete it.
Zhong Ming shot a wind blade with one hand, and with a light cut, he broke the skin of the corpse sunflower, and under a burst of green gas, the corpse sunflower turned into dozens of palm-sized fruit pieces, and at the same time, there was an extra pigeon-egg-sized, pale green crystal-like crystal clear object on his left hand, and a black gallbladder-like thing was grasped in his right hand.
Lu Xu looked curiously at the corpse beads in Zhong Ming's hand, although the corpse beads were not a rare object, but it was the first time he had seen them.
Immediately, I saw two green earthworm-like insects crawling out of Zhong Ming's hands, crawling like a snake and inserting the port directly into the gallbladder, and suddenly the gallbladder dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, but after three or two breaths, only a layer of cyst skin remained in the gallbladder, which was thrown into the swamp by Zhong Ming, and the sucked worm slowly retreated into Zhong Ming's body.
Zhong Ming handed over the corpse beads to Monk Yuanzhen for safekeeping, and then turned to Lu Xu and Wang Lianhua and said, "The rest of these are all your fellow Daoists, I don't know if you want to help collect them?"
"No, no, it's good for people to come by themselves. Without waiting for Lu Xu to speak, Wang Lianhua took the first step towards the pile of fruit pieces.
"It's only the first day, we have achieved a good harvest, everyone should make persistent efforts, how far is the poisonous mold grass you said from here, old bald donkey, let's quickly pick it, cover the smell on our bodies, and go to those second-level demon beast territories to search." Wang Lianhua said excitedly after collecting the flesh of the corpse sunflower.
"Maybe we don't need to go there, but there's a great opportunity waiting for us. At this time, Lu Xu, who was not moving on the side, suddenly said with a mysterious smile.
After saying this, Lu Xu stepped forward, and with one move, a huge invisible force field converged in Lu Xu's hand, and Wang Lianhua and the others who were nearby suddenly felt a burst of suction coming, and couldn't help but retreat a little.
I saw Lu Xu's big hand grabbing it, and a gray glow bombarded the place where the corpse had taken root before, and with a bang, the muddy water and mud were sucked up more than a hundred zhang high, and the attacked position had a large pit with a diameter of more than ten lengths and a depth of about three zhang.
Immediately, Lu Xu jumped into the pit with a vertical body, and with the extension of the Yuan Magnetic Hegemony, a Yuan Magnetic Force Barrier directly blocked the muddy water and mud outside, so that the pit would not be re-covered, and after doing all this, he carefully looked inside the pit, and suddenly found that this small place was densely covered with dozens of skeletons.
Because of the long time, not only the flesh and blood were completely gone, but even the bones became ashes, and the bones were densely covered with countless tiny holes, judging from the appearance of these bones, they should all belong to human beings during their lifetimes, to be precise, the first few batches should be the Qi refining stage cultivators who entered here.
Lu Xu used his soul power to perceive it, and suddenly found that there were some obscure spiritual power fluctuations in the pile of bones, and he suddenly understood that these fluctuations should be the magic weapons and other items that the victim had before his death, and they were all things of good quality, so that they could be retained under the erosion of time.
At this time, the Yuanzhen monks and they also rushed to the edge of the pit, saw the bones in the pit, and felt the fluctuations of those obscure spiritual energy, and the three of them were overjoyed, and they all turned their eyes to Lu Xu, after all, he discovered all this first, and Lu Xu's strength also gave them a great shock.
