Chapter Seventy-Three: The Evergreen Forest
The evergreen forest is located in the middle of the mountains, covering an area of hundreds of miles, covered with tall evergreen trees all year round, the ground is lush with all kinds of grass, there are some small streams flowing in the forest, and the air is filled with pale white mist.
After the dragon flew away, it didn't stop, and flew directly towards the forest. He lowered the altitude of his flight and flew among the treetops. One is that this can prevent other immortal cultivators from being able to spot him from a distance, and on the other hand, by reducing the flight altitude, he can also search for medicinal herbs on the ground at any time.
Since the foundation was built, he absorbed the natal essence blood of the dragon, and the release of Long Yaoyao's divine sense had reached about forty meters, and of course, the space of the Ten Thousand Beasts Order had also expanded to a range of four hundred meters, and there were more places to transplant medicinal herbs. Originally, he was worried that the spirit grass in the elixir garden would not adapt to the new environment, but now it seemed to be more lush than before, which reassured him.
Not long after Long Yao entered the Evergreen Forest, he found two centipedes lurking under the big tree, both of which were level 2 poisonous insects, half a foot long, but their speed was also very fast.
Long Xiaoyao immediately summoned the golden snake, although the opponent was two level 2 poisonous insects, he believed that the golden snake that was completely immune to the toxin should still be able to deal with it, however, he didn't dare to hold it up, and he was engrossed in the movement on the battlefield.
The golden snake was summoned and immediately found two centipedes, and the golden snake immediately pounced on the centipede excitedly. The two centipedes also spotted the golden snake and felt a great threat, the two half-foot-long centipedes lay side by side, raised their heads, opened their mouths, and revealed a pair of half-inch-long crescent-shaped brown fangs, intimidating the golden snake.
But the centipede was strong in the face of the golden snake, and the golden snake ignored their intimidation, flew in front of the centipede like lightning, and opened its mouth to bite a centipede.
The attacked centipede immediately moved in unison and quickly dodged backwards, while the other centipede pounced forward and bit the neck of the golden snake.
But at this moment, the golden snake's attack suddenly changed direction, and it actually bit the centipede that pounced on it, and it looked like the centipede threw itself into the mouth of the golden snake.
Long Xiaoyao has been monitoring the changes in the battlefield, and he doesn't know whether the golden snake is deliberately attacking the west, or whether it is a strong adaptability and quick action, and he is still surprised by the strength of the golden snake when he sees the golden snake instantly succeed against the poisonous insects of the same level.
However, before the battle was over, another centipede took advantage of the golden snake to devour the centipede, and actually ejected and pounced towards the neck of the golden snake.
The centipede is a low-level poisonous insect, there is no intelligence, the reason why it quickly responded, pounced on the neck of the golden snake, completely by virtue of the instinct of the poisonous insect, it has also had combat experience with snakes before, and naturally knows that the neck of snakes is the most vulnerable part.
However, the golden snake reacts quickly, and although the golden snake is in the form of a snake, it belongs to the dragon family, and seven inches is not its Achilles' heel. The golden snake's body shrank back, and then, he gave up the remaining half of the centipede in his mouth, and then opened his mouth to meet the centipede, and actually bit the centipede instantly. The centipede's body is very fragile, and when it is bitten by a golden snake, it immediately kills the snake's mouth.
In the following days, the golden snake has experienced hundreds of actual battles, and the poisonous insects in the evergreen forest are indeed extremely dense, and on average, Long Xiaoyao will encounter more than a dozen poisonous insects every day, but he has not encountered any demon beasts.
Long Xiaoyao had transplanted some medicinal herbs, but since it was on the periphery of the evergreen forest, the herbs were relatively ordinary. More than a month after he entered the Evergreen Forest, the golden snake fell into a deep sleep again. He knew that this should be a sign that the Golden Snake would advance again, but he was not worried.
This is mainly due to the fact that the golden snake has devoured hundreds of poisonous insects in a row, and the poisonous insects themselves are the most beneficial to the golden snake, and the golden snake has also swallowed the demon pill of these hundreds of poisonous insects, so that it has benefited a lot.
However, today's dragon is no longer what it used to be, and it is protected by a high-grade spiritual weapon shield, so there is no need to worry about the disturbance of poisonous insects. Moreover, the Thunder and Fire surnames have a restraining effect on poisonous insects, and poisonous insects belong to low-level demon beasts, and their level is not high, so they do not pose any threat to him at all, he does not pause, and continues to go deep into the evergreen forest.
In the blink of an eye, several months have passed, and Long Xiaoyao has gone deeper than half of the forest, because he has to find and transplant medicinal herbs, so the speed of progress is not fast, but as he goes deeper, the poisonous insects encountered are basically level 3, and occasionally he can see level 4 poisonous insects, which makes him more and more cautious.
However, as he deepened, the herbs that Long Xiaoyao searched for became more and more rare, and in order to be able to buy elixirs in exchange for spirit stones, he still had no intention of retreating.
Long Xiaoyao searched and advanced in the forest during the day every day, and took Dan to cultivate in the forest at night. He is now more and more proficient in the mastery of the magic array, under the protection of the phantom array and the small five-element array launched by the array, plus the spirit attraction array and the spirit blocking array he drawn, there is no problem with safety.
Long Xiaoyao didn't absorb any beast souls, he planned to absorb them after advancing to the high-level foundation building, not only could he absorb the higher-level beast souls and improve his strength to the greatest extent, but also avoided the lack of high-level auxiliary pills for foundation building caused by his overstepping pills, for him who was eager to improve his strength, of course he was not willing to easily absorb low-level beast souls.
In less than two months after going deep into the forest, Long Xiaoyao successfully broke through and entered the middle stage of the initial stage of foundation building. At this time, he was transplanting medicinal herbs when he suddenly noticed more than 30 poisonous bees flying towards him.
Long Xiaoyao was in the evergreen forest, in order to prevent the sneak attack of poisonous insects, his natural consciousness was completely released, and when the poisonous bee approached him at a distance of thirty meters, he found the poisonous bee flying close.
The poisonous bee is a monster with a metal surname, and it is a poisonous insect, and the poisonous surname is quite not weak, especially troublesomely, the poisonous bees are generally attacked in groups, and there are many of them, they are not afraid of death, and they are not afraid of death.
Long Xiaoyao immediately took out the spiritual fire cover, and after injecting true qi, the spiritual fire cover flashed, and a protective shield two meters high and more than one meter in diameter with a large amount of flames attached to it appeared outside his body. Although the level of the spiritual fire cover is only a medium-grade spiritual weapon, but the fire is golden, the restraint of the surname, and the fear of the poisonous insects to the flames, it is indeed the best choice to defend with the spiritual fire cover.
Sure enough, the poisonous bees flew outside the spiritual fire cover, only hovering outside the protective shield, but none of them dared to attack. Long Xiaoyao's heart was slightly relieved when he saw this, but after only a moment, his face changed slightly. It turned out that he had found a mid-level immortal cultivator flying towards his location.
The monk's whole body was wrapped in a wide black robe, but Long Xiaoyao could still find out that the monk's whole body was gray-black, and his body was wrapped in gray mist.
