Chapter 39: The aftermath of the elixir
I don't know how long it took, Zhang Fan gradually regained consciousness, and said secretly: "What's the matter? The little master seems to be still alive? Is it possible?" He didn't believe in evil, his consciousness moved slightly, he probed his body, and suddenly exclaimed: "How is it possible!"
It turned out that Zhang Fan was stunned by his physical condition. When Zhang Fan checked the situation around him, he found that his cultivation had been improved to the early stage of foundation building, even if he was an idiot, he would not believe that what he saw was true.
What happened? This has to be traced back to when Zhang Fan fell from the cave. At that time, Zhang Fan hit the light curtain with a "bang", broke open a dark blue air cover, screamed and fell, and saw a bucket-thick golden dragon waiting for him below, and was immediately frightened, and hit the dragon straight up, and passed out. The strange thing is that Zhang Fan was not injured by the dragon, and even the skin was not broken. As soon as he hit the dragon, he fell off the dragon's body with a "snap" and sank into a dark blue strange spirit pool.
The dark blue liquid in the spirit pool is naturally not a mortal thing, but the legendary Xuanming true water. As for why there is a whole pool of Xuanming True Water here, as well as the golden dragon that almost occupies a radius of twenty zhang spiritual pool, ordinary people don't know.
In the spiritual pool with a radius of twenty zhang, the golden dragon with the thickness of the bucket is coiled into a round cake, leaving a small puddle with a square circle of two zhang in the middle, Zhang Fan is lying in the center of the puddle, and the dragon is stretching out the blood-red dragon letter, licking Zhang Fan's face full of surprise over and over again, as if he is caring for Zhang Fan, and seems to be playing with him. The scene in the entire spiritual pool seemed so strange and infiltrating.
I don't know when. Zhang Fan felt a crispy numbness on his face, was shocked, and said secretly: "It's over." That beast doesn't want to let go of the master!" He thought and hurriedly contacted the spirit of the black sword, but unfortunately the black ghost didn't know where he went, and he didn't respond, and suddenly his heart was even more horrified, and he didn't want to think about it, and suddenly jumped up from the water. To escape.
Jiaolong was overjoyed when he saw this, and shouted "groaning". Zhang Fan on the side saw that he was in a space with a radius of twenty zhang, and the surroundings were blue and quiet. The underside is filled with dragons. What kind of spiritual pool is this, it's just a standard dragon pool. He seemed to be a little numb, and when he saw that there was no way to escape, he heard the dragon groaning. Immediately turn around. Suppressing the fear in his heart, he pointed at Jiaolong and shouted: "Don't come here, don't come over, the master is just passing by, passing by!" Who knew that the dragon let out a long groan again, shrank in an instant, and shot towards Zhang Fanlai like lightning. He exclaimed, "Ah......"
The dragon didn't swallow Zhang Fansheng. Instead, he took the initiative to drill into his waist and turned into a belt. Entrenched. Seeing this, Zhang Fan secretly scolded himself for being cowardly, his face was blushing, and he scolded: "This guy is actually a golden scale, but when can it become so big?"
"Puff ......" came the sound of the hood shattering. The Spirit of the Black Sword shouted, "Master, quickly collect the Xuanming True Water! Zhang Fan exclaimed, secretly scolding the for being shameless, but time waits for no one, no more said, take out the spirit jade, the divine sense shrouds the spirit pool that is only ten zhang in size, and input true qi into the spirit jade, a colorful vortex appears, and the Xuanming real water in the pool suddenly turns into a dark blue stream, and it disappears like lightning into the spirit jade. Zhang Fan was overjoyed, and wanted to put away the spirit stones at the bottom of the pool, but a loud bang sounded, the light curtain shattered, and the water in the lake smashed down overwhelmingly.
Zhang Fan scolded secretly: "Damn! Will you die if you wait for the master to put away the spirit stone and then break it?" But complaining is complaining, the speed under his feet is not slow at all, he no longer cares about the situation at the bottom of the lake, he has enough true qi and shoots upwards quickly. Don't you really say it, Zhang Fan took a bath in the Xuanming real water, and his cultivation increased greatly, it can be said that pies fell from the sky, shotguns changed guns, and the speed was extraordinary, and after only a few moments, he arrived at the entrance of the cave. At this time, the turtles, crabs, and python monster fish that had been waiting around for a long time, saw that the suction at the entrance of the cave suddenly disappeared, and they wanted to see what was going on, but who knew that the guy who had flaunted his might in front of his beast ran out, and suddenly the three corpses jumped out of anger, grinning one by one, and biting him.
Zhang Fan despised the beasts, snorted coldly, and the black sword in his hand shot out, and the colorful light of the Dao Dao swirled. Before the beasts could react, they were split in two and died. As patches of blood filled the bottom of the sea, the surrounding spirit beasts seemed to be cats that smelled fishy, and shot towards Zhang Fan one by one.
Zhang Fan secretly screamed badly, his mind moved, and the golden scales on his waist shot out instantly, turning into a hundred-zhang dragon, with a long groan, and sucked at the beasts. The spirit fish, spirit snake, spirit turtle, spirit crab and spirit shrimp were submerged into the golden scale mouth and became the delicacy of its belly. Zhang Fan was shocked and shocked when he saw this, the golden scale was only a second-grade middle-level spirit beast, but he could easily kill a second-grade upper-level sea turtle, and his strength was not trivial. When he saw that the bottom of the lake was clear, he quickly put away the bones of the spirit turtle and python and crab he had killed, recalled the golden scales, and swam towards the lake.
Zhang Fan was not afraid of the beasts, but when he saw the blood and water escaping, he was worried that it would attract countless spirit beasts and monks to watch, and if he fought again, it would be coveted. He was lucky enough to get the Xuanming True Water, which greatly increased his cultivation, but unfortunately he had not adapted to the cultivation of the foundation building period, let alone the spells that should be cultivated during the foundation building period.
After a while, Zhang Fan walked out of the spirit pool and came outside, but he heard the sound of beasts roaring around him, and his divine sense probed and saw that a large number of monks and swords were coming within a radius of one mile, and he was surprised in his heart, and hurriedly ran to the peaks and peaks next to him, intending to take shelter for a while.
As soon as Zhang Fan left, three monks in the foundation building period fell from the sky, they were two men and a woman, and the female Zhang Fan had also seen it, it was the eldest disciple of the Lingyun Fairy - Narcissus, as for the man, he did not know.
"Roar, roar, roar, groan......" The roars of spirit beasts came from all directions one after another. A touch of scarlet in the spirit pool gradually dispersed, and countless spirit beasts were churning in the lake, as if they were biting together. By the lake, Narcissus glanced at the surface of the lake and said to the two men: "Two senior brothers, there are too many spirit beasts here, and the newly mature elixir may have already been taken away by the spirit beasts, and we may be late." A man snorted coldly: "What my sister said is false. Even if the spirit beast eats it, the real person will refine it into a spirit pill and swallow it!" Another man said, "If the senior sister doesn't want to go and see it, we won't force it." Brother. Let's go!" said the two men who shot into the water at once.
Zhang Fan, who was hiding in the shadows to watch, saw this, and secretly stammered, thinking: "These guys." What a bunch of outlaws. They relied on their cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, and for the sake of the so-called elixir, they even ignored the hordes of spirit beasts and went to the lake!" It seems that every monk who can cultivate to the foundation building period is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and their hearts are cold.
The beast's chirping did not stop. Above the lake, thirty or forty monks from the early stage of foundation building came one after another. All the people came together. After a little exchange, they all jumped into the lake without hesitation, or searched for elixir. Or hunt spirit beasts and go. Obviously, they won't go home empty-handed, and even if they don't get the treasure, they will have to search for some elixir and go back.
While everyone was talking, Zhang Fan didn't dare to come out. Just hide behind a hill far from the lake and watch silently. wanted to wait until everyone left before leaving, but unfortunately the monks didn't seem to have any intention of leaving immediately, and they attacked and killed the spirit beasts one after another. It's not that Zhang Fan is cowardly, but he doesn't rely on black swords, golden scales, and spiritual flames, and he really doesn't have the means to attack. If he went out rashly, wouldn't that be looking for abuse? Zhang Fan's idea was really good, but it was a pity that he didn't look for others, but others found him.
Just when Zhang Fan watched it with relish. A sound of fighting quickly approached. Before he could speak, a terrible cheer came. A man said, "This fellow Daoist, you are hiding here." Do you want to be a fisherman?" Zhang Fan was so shocked that he stood up from the ground and saw that the person who came was a middle-aged man in the early stage of building a foundation. He felt very angry that the man had disturbed him for no reason, and just as he was about to ask, the man sneered: "Hmph! What Lao Tzu hates most in his life is a villain like you who plots against others behind his back!!"
Zhang Fan was furious, immediately opened the armor defense, and quickly avoided it, who knew that he was still a step slower, and the sword "bang" slashed Zhang Fan's heart at once, shocking him to twenty zhang away, breaking several ancient trees, and then stopped. Zhang Fan felt a sharp pain in his heart, if it weren't for the protection of the treasure armor, he might have been killed by the man's sword. The man smiled fiercely: "Boy, yes! There is a medium-grade defensive weapon, if you don't die today, this way will be thundered by the sky!Haha!" Zhang Fan said angrily: "You dog bastard! Lao Tzu killed you!"
The man was about to kill Zhang Fan, but when he saw the black sword shooting at him, he exclaimed, "Ah!"
"Stop!"
"Bang!
Seeing that the middle-aged man was about to be devoured by the black sword, a coquettish cry came, it was Narcissus. When Zhang Fan heard this, he hurriedly withdrew the black sword. However, although the black sword didn't understand why the master ordered him to return, he still lowered the attack, but its speed was too fast, and it slashed at the middle-aged man's abdomen in an instant, knocking the man dozens of feet away. The man's armor was shattered, and he was also injured.
Zhang Fan withdrew the black sword, took a Pei Yuan Dan, sat cross-legged on the spot, and recovered. At the same time, Narcissus landed on the ground, killed the second-grade spirit pig that was spread on the ground, collected its bones, and came to Zhang Fan's side.
In a moment, Zhang Fan recovered his true qi, healed the minor injury in his abdomen, and woke up. Narcissus asked, "Senior brother, why did you come here, don't you know that there are many spirit beasts here, and it is very dangerous?" Zhang Fan shook his head with a wry smile, stood up, and said, "Senior sister, I just came to find a few elixirs. ”
At this time, the man from Zhongnan who had just been knocked away by Zhang Fan came close and bowed to Narcissus: "Meet Senior Sister Narcissus! Thank you Senior Sister for saving your life!" Narcissus turned around and said lightly: "Murong He, as a disciple of Beiming, why did you poison your fellow disciples for no reason! Have you forgotten the words of the ancestor!" Murong He heard this, pointed at Zhang Fan, and said hurriedly: "Senior sister, it was he who hid in the dark and wanted to sneak attack me." I didn't hurt him. ”
Narcissus snorted coldly: "You are still quibbling! There are so many people around here, all of them are from the same door. You think no one sees you!" Murong He defended: "But Senior Sister, I'm also worried that he will sneak up on me." Besides, I didn't hurt him, but he broke the armor. Senior sister, I have been wronged!" Narcissus said coldly: "You are really shameless!" Murong He said: "Senior sister, I didn't!" Narcissus snorted coldly.
"Sister Narcissus, what's going on?, what's going on?" everyone noticed the strangeness of this place, and they ran over one by one, and asked one after another. Seeing this, Narcissus said, "It's nothing. Do your own thing, and go. Everyone was stunned.
Narcissus glanced at Murong He lightly, and then said to Zhang Fan: "Come with me!" Zhang Fan didn't say anything, glanced at Murong He, who was full of resentment, suppressed the anger in his heart, and followed Narcissus away.
After a while, the two came to the lake. Zhang Fan said: "Senior sister also wants to find elixir?" Narcissus said lightly: "I just want to hunt a few spirit beasts." The elixir is a matter of fate. Zhang Fan nodded puzzled.
Narcissus glanced at his fellow men who were hunting spirit beasts by the lake, and said, "Zhang Fan, since we are here, let's also kill a few spirit beasts, right?" Zhang Fan Muran nodded. Immediately, the two flew to the surface of the lake, searched for a suitable second-grade spirit beast, and hunted them.
Zhang Fan was full of doubts in his heart at this time, knowing that as long as Narcissus didn't stop him, Murong He would definitely become a ghost under his sword, thinking that she had already discovered herself, but for some reason she didn't make a move when she was attacked by Murong He, but only came out to stop Murong He when she was about to kill her. He was helpless in his heart, only blaming himself for not being deeply involved in the world, and he would watch himself being attacked by a monk who was also in the early stage of foundation building.
Zhang Fan and Narcissus cooperated to hunt second-grade spirit beasts, and it was extremely easy. The two of them hunted spirit beasts while searching for elixirs, killed fifteen second-grade spirit beasts in half a day, found five or six suitable second-grade elixirs, and returned to the lake.
After all, the spirit beast is a livestock with low intelligence, even if there are a lot of them, and their strength is not weak, after a long time, they are still killed by the fierce Beiming Sect's foundation building period monks. At this time, the monks searched for the rare elixir to no avail, but they harvested a large amount of spirit beast materials, and they were all satisfied, and left one after another.
By the lake, Narcissus looked at the pale red lake filled with a fishy smell for a while, seemed to have some regret, sighed, and said, "Forget it." Zhang Fanqi said: "Senior sister, are you still looking for anything?" Narcissus said lightly: "The two senior brothers went to the bottom of the lake to search for elixir, and they haven't come back yet." It seems that there is no Xuanming True Water here, and the previous gathering of spirit beasts was just because of the fight of a few spirit beasts. When Zhang Fan heard this, he seemed to understand what Narcissus meant, and nodded. Narcissus said: "Senior brother, senior sister hasn't seen you for a few days. Why don't you go to the mansion with me?" Zhang Fan smiled: "Senior sister invited, how dare junior brother refuse." Then the two of them flew out against the wind. (To be continued......)
