Chapter 708: Tribulation
Chapter 708: Tribulation
As soon as the vampire demon butterfly left, the Qingfeng Immortal and the gluttony were all panting, lying on the ground, panting. The gluttony is relatively better, but the Qingfeng Immortal looks exhausted and has palpitations, as a treasure hunter of the Treasure Hunting Gang, since he found out that he can hire an immortal cultivator as an assistant to work for him, he basically will not appear on the front line of the need to fight for his life.
If it weren't for the fact that he was an immortal slave this time and had to die, maybe he would not be able to support the high-intensity attack of the vampire demon butterfly and let the vampire demon butterfly swallow it.
Li Wenjun took out some immortal elixirs to restore the power of the immortal yuan, and let the gluttony and Qingfeng immortals take it, while he and Marshal Kang, Cheng Yi, etc., collected the corpse of the vampire demon butterfly everywhere, although the vampire demon butterfly is a low-level immortal beast, but as long as it is an immortal beast, its corpse is very valuable, like the wings of the vampire demon butterfly and the powder on the wings are very valuable.
Qingfeng Immortal recovered quickly, and as soon as he took a breath, he couldn't wait to tell Li Wenjun one thing. Vampire Butterflies appear here on a large scale and besiege them, then it means one thing, the nest of the Vampire Butterfly should be nearby, even if it is a little farther away, it is far and limited, and it is not easy to meet such a group of Vampire Butterflies, it is better to do nothing, put this Vampire Butterfly's nest in a pot, maybe you can find some good things in the nest of the Vampire Butterfly.
Li Wenjun was suddenly moved, the vampire demon butterfly is an oviparous fairy beast, and every time they lay eggs, they are piled up one by one, and there are at least dozens of them in each pile, if you can get a batch of vampire demon butterfly eggs, hatch and domesticate them. Then he has one more batch of extremely rare pet beasts, even if he doesn't make them pet beasts, if the eggs of the vampire demon butterfly are sold or handed over to the treasure hunting gang as task items, it is also a very good choice, the former can be exchanged for a large number of fairy stones, and the latter is ironclad to be able to exchange a large number of points for the Qingfeng immortals. Enhance the status of the Qingfeng Immortals in the Treasure Hunt Gang.
Li Wenjun almost immediately agreed to the Qingfeng Immortal's suggestion, and he asked the Qingfeng Immortal and the gluttonous who had recovered most of the Immortal Yuan Power to hurry up, and then began to pursue the Vampire Demon Butterfly.
The vampire demon butterfly flew away without a shadow, but this was not difficult for Li Wenjun, he had so many beast slaves, among them there were those who were good at identifying the smell and breath, and they would choose one of them at random and let him lead the way in front of the smell head, and then Li Wenjun and they followed. Kill all the way to the nest of the vampire butterfly.
Li Wenjun and the others flew thousands of miles into the depths of the prairie, and in front of them appeared a rolling hill, which looked like a graveyard from a distance.
Li Wenjun asked Qingfeng Immortal and Tao Tao to scan this hill with their divine senses, and soon, both of them had a feedback, and neither of them found any valuable clues in this hill. The beast slave who was responsible for finding the way with his sense of smell also told Li Wenjun nervously. The breath of the vampire butterfly vanished from the hills, and it was as if the vampire butterfly had suddenly disappeared from here. Not even a single smell remained.
There are endless strange things in the fairy world, Qingfeng Immortals and gluttons have long been unfamiliar, Li Wenjun's knowledge is also very extensive, he knows that the vampire demon butterfly will not disappear suddenly, there must be a reason behind it.
Qingfeng Immortal and Gluttony mean that no matter what the reason, forget it. It is said that it was a trip for nothing. It's not that the two of them are timid, but they are worried that they will meet Cunzài, who they can't deal with, and their own lives are here, not something they want to see, if they hurt Li Wenjun again. The two of them, a pair of immortal slaves and beast slaves, will not be able to accept it.
Li Wenjun didn't retreat, nor did he listen to the opinions of Qingfeng Immortals and gluttony, the nest of the vampire demon butterfly is nearby, since it has already come, there is no way to leave casually, Qingfeng Immortal and gluttonous are nothing more than worried that they will be injured and die, but as long as they don't encounter particularly powerful immortal beasts, with the strength of their team, they still have the power to protect themselves, especially with the ancestral root tree of life as the foundation, as long as they don't carry it a little bit, it is difficult to die.
Since Li Wenjun insisted, Qingfeng Immortals and gluttons couldn't say anything, so they followed Li Wenjun's instructions and began to use special methods to survey and explore this hill.
Divine consciousness is not omnipotent, and some things can be concealed from divine consciousness, and at this time, it is quite necessary to use some other means.
Qingfeng Immortal, as a treasure explorer, still has a lot of good things in his hands, he took out a compass specially used to survey the formation, and under some manipulation, the compass extended a set of holographic images, which was the hill that Li Wenjun and they saw.
A circle of light shot out of the compass and spread throughout the hilly area, after which there was still no response on the compass. Qingfeng Immortal bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood on the compass, as a result, a circle of light shot out on the compass again, this time the circle of aperture was red in gold, unusually poignant, it swept over the entire hilly area again, and soon, on the holographic image projected by the compass, a red dot appeared, and that was where the formation was located.
Li Wenjun was overjoyed, he first threw a few Vitality Pills to the Qingfeng Immortal, and then took the lead in flying in the direction indicated by the red dot.
This is a hilly halfway mountainside, at first glance, there is no difference between this place and other hills, but with the guidance of the compass, Li Wenjun and they will no longer be confused by the formation, Qingfeng Immortal sacrificed a set of immortal weapons specially used to break the formation, it took a lot of effort, and finally forced the formation out, through the protective shield formed by the formation, you can see that there is a passage over there, which is pitch black, and I don't know where it leads.
Qingfeng Immortal tried to break the formation, but failed to break it, and after that, he and Tao Tao joined forces to bombard the protective shield with brute force, but they still failed to break through the protective shield's protection.
Qingfeng Immortal and Tao Tao both have very bad faces, both of them are the strength of the late stage of human immortals, and the two join forces, although they may not be able to beat the earth immortals, but they are used to deal with the immortals of the Great Perfection Realm of the human immortal stage.
Li Wenjun was thoughtful, as far as he knew, demon cultivators would also use formations, but it was unheard of for immortal beasts to use formations. Li Wenjun does not deny that there are natural formations in the world, but compared with man-made formations, natural formations are not only extremely rare in number, but also generally not very powerful. There are very few powerful and natural formations, at least Qingfeng Immortals and gluttons have never heard of them.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering relatively powerful magic circles, almost all of them are arranged by the formation mages among the Terran immortal cultivators. The Vampire Demon Butterfly is a group of fairy beasts, and their individual strength is relatively low, and their IQ is limited. It is impossible to build such a complex magic circle, so there seems to be only one explanation, that is, there should be immortals or demon cultivators around the vampire demon butterfly, and they are all immortal array masters with good strength.
Li wenjun gave qingfeng immortal and gluttony a look, and then took the lead and put marshal kang and them away, they all played an auxiliary role just now, at this time. If they stay, they may become targets, and when the time comes, Li Wenjun and they will be tied up, which will be unfavorable to Li Wenjun and them.
As soon as Marshal Kang and the others left, Li Wenjun, Qingfeng Immortals, and gluttonous people were left on the Terran side.
Li Wenjun asked the Qingfeng Immortals to continue to break the formation, and he and the gluttony were on the side to protect the Qingfeng Immortals. To be honest, the thing that broke the formation. Li Wenjun hadn't done it before, but the magic circles he encountered today were all immortal arrays. With his zero attainment in the immortal array, he didn't have that ability.
Qingfeng Immortal's attainments in the immortal array are not high, and the little common sense and experience he has in breaking the formation are all in a state of knowing what it is, not knowing why it is.
With the half-hung experience of breaking the formation, the Qingfeng Immortal almost broke the protective shield that shrouded the outside of the nest. Subsequently. He didn't care about taking a break, so he respectfully signaled to Li Wenjun, saying that he had broken the formation.
As soon as the shield was gone, the true face of the hill was revealed, which was bare. Not a single hill where grass grows. A trail runs from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. What made Li Wenjun and the Qingfeng Immortals creepy was that there were many poles erected on both sides of the path, and each pole was hung with the corpses of either immortals or immortal beasts.
At the end of the trail was a huge green palace, and at the gate of the palace, several vampire butterflies that had just spread their wings could not wait to fly out.
The targets of these vampire butterflies are those immortals or beasts hanging from poles, they land on the bodies of immortals or beasts, and then pierce their bodies with their mouthparts, greedily sucking the flesh of immortals and beasts.
Qingfeng Immortal's face changed greatly, as an immortal, he couldn't see this scene no matter what. The Qingfeng Immortals couldn't wait to ask Li Wenjun for battle, hoping that Li Wenjun would allow him to go into battle to kill these vampire demon butterflies.
Li Wenjun didn't stop it, in addition to letting the Qingfeng Immortals and Gluttony come forward, he also transferred all the immortal slaves and beast slaves out and asked them to kill these vampire demon butterflies together.
The strength of the newborn vampire demon butterflies is relatively weak, and they also need to cultivate, only when they have cultivated to a certain level can they be as powerful as adult vampire demon butterflies. Although Li Wenjun's immortal slaves and beast slaves can't deal with adult vampire demon butterflies, it is not easy to kill these vampire demon butterflies whose strength is obviously very poor.
The fighting on both sides of the path alarmed the adult vampire butterflies in the nest at the top of the mountain, and they flew out of the nest in groups, and then converged into a dark cloud, heading towards the top of Li Wenjun's Mount Tai.
Li Wenjun once again formed a circle of both offense and defense, Qingfeng Immortals and gluttons resisted the enemy outside, Li Wenjun killed the enemy inside, and Cheng Yi and Marshal Kang were responsible for providing support.
This is a very effective circle, and after the last actual combat exercise, this time, they cooperate more tacitly, and the efficiency of killing the enemy has also become excellent.
It didn't take much effort, and the corpses of vampire butterflies were lying in front of them, and a large number of vampire butterflies were killed again. However, this time, the vampire demon butterflies obviously had no way out, and all the vampire demon butterflies, no matter how big or small, rushed towards Li Wenjun and them like crazy.
By the time the battle was over, Li Wenjun and their surroundings were covered with the corpses of vampire demon butterflies, there were hundreds of adult vampire demon butterflies alone, if you count those juvenile vampire demon butterflies, the total number exceeded a thousand, there was absolutely no problem.
Let Marshal Kang take someone to clean up the corpse of the vampire demon butterfly, while Li Wenjun took the Qingfeng Immortal and gluttony straight to the top of the mountain, he wanted to see what the nest built by the vampire demon butterfly on the top of the mountain looked like, and of course, more importantly, whether there would be vampire demon butterfly eggs here.
When he arrived at the top of the mountain, Li Wenjun couldn't help but be stunned, there was a house on the top of the mountain, although the workmanship was a little rough, but at first glance, the handwriting was made by immortals. And not the monster did it.
Li Wenjun's heart moved, he rushed to the house, stood outside the door and looked inside the house, only to see a corpse sitting cross-legged on the ground inside the house, and the flesh and blood on his body were gone, only bare bones remained.
On this skeleton. There are many vampire butterflies nestled with their eggs, and if you don't look closely, you might think that the vampire butterflies have built a humanoid statue out of their eggs.
Li Wenjun knew that the owner of this skeleton must not be simple, he circled around the skeleton a few times, and finally saw a storage ring on the finger where the skeleton was covered by butterfly eggs, he carefully took off this storage ring, and his divine sense probed in, and he found that the storage ring was empty. There is only one thing.
When Li Wenjun saw this thing, his tiger body was shocked, and he finally figured out why those vampire butterflies stuck their eggs to the body of the bone, not how attractive the bone was, but the treasure in the storage ring, its aura was so strong that it might not even be able to close the storage ring.
This is a divine object, a blood attribute divine object. It can increase the vigorous qi and blood and strengthen the body. For a bloodthirsty fairy beast like the Vampire Demon Butterfly, this is a rare treasure.
Li Wenjun didn't expect that there would be a divine object here, and he could use it, this is really nowhere to find the iron boots, and it takes no effort to get it. Li Wenjun first used his divine sense to check this artifact, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong. Then he asked Tao Tao and Qingfeng Immortal to protect the Dharma for him, and he wanted to swallow this artifact now, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
Under the protection of Qingfeng Immortals and gluttonous people, Li Wenjun quickly refined this divine artifact and integrated it into the Five Elements and Nine Phases Array. Becoming a new guide for the Five Elements and Nine Phases Array, when the entire Five Elements and Nine Phases Array stabilized again, Li Wenjun felt that the shackles that hindered his further cultivation had disappeared, and if he retreated now, he would definitely be able to go to the next level.
Li Wenjun did not choose to retreat here, he commanded people to search the entire nest of the vampire butterfly, in addition to finding a large number of vampire butterfly eggs, he also found some things related to the deceased, through these things, Li Wenjun has a simple understanding of the deceased. Of course, if you understand and understand, let Li Wenjun make a special trip to report the funeral to the relatives and friends of the deceased, and he will not bother with that idle matter.
What surprised Li Wenjun was the corpses of those immortals and fairy beasts hanging on both sides of the path, not to mention the fairy beasts, those immortals had magic weapons such as storage rings and storage bracelets, they all died, and these storage magic weapons were cheaply given to Li Wenjun with the things inside.
Through Guò's inventory of these storage bracelets and storage rings, Li Wenjun's wealth instantly skyrocketed.
Li Wenjun is not too interested in other things, but on the body of one of the deceased, Li Wenjun found an invitation, which is an anonymous invitation, which means that no matter who it is, as long as he holds this invitation, he can go to the owner of the post as a guest.
The post says the date, as well as the name of the event, what kind of treasure appreciation conference it is.
Li Wenjun didn't care at first, he casually threw the invitation to the ground, just as the Qingfeng Immortal was passing by, he just glanced at the invitation that made Li Wenjun abandon it, and his body shook hard.
Qingfeng Immortal hurriedly picked up the invitation, and without waiting for Li Wenjun to ask, he took the initiative to talk about the origin of the post.
Li Wenjun's current location is not the sphere of influence of Kaiyuan City, but like Kaiyuan City, they all belong to the same immortal country. The name of this immortal country is called the Lotus Immortal Country, the lord of the country is a person with great ability and great magical powers, in the national capital, in addition to the lord of the country, there are a few capable people, one of them is the Jinlan brother of the lord of the country, this person has a biggest hobby, that is, he likes to engage in all kinds of conferences, what treasure appreciation conference, plum appreciation conference or something, a year does not toss a few tricks out, he is uncomfortable.
Because there are many conferences held by this capable person, coupled with his special status, there are many people at each conference, but in addition to the conferences that people deliberately support, there are still some of these conferences that are genuine, just like this treasure appreciation conference, which is one of the golden signs of the might.
It is said that there will be unearthly treasures at every treasure appraisal meeting, and it is even rumored that there were demigods that once appeared, but no one knew the goods at that time. These rumors made the Treasure Appraisal Conference even more famous, so much so that every immortal in the Lotus Immortal Kingdom was proud to be able to attend the Treasure Appraisal Conference. It's just that no one knows how the Great Power screened the guests, and the invitations to the Treasure Appreciation Conference were never issued publicly, and they were all issued in secret.
Qingfeng Immortal, as a treasure explorer, was originally very eager to participate in the treasure appreciation conference, but his status in the treasure hunting gang was very low, and those elders with higher status than him did not say anything, so it was his turn to receive the invitation.
Knowing that there were so many stories about this invitation, Li Wenjun hurriedly took the invitation back, and then put it away intimately. He had already made up his mind to take a look at the treasure appreciative conference, and maybe he would be able to find more artifacts.
After scavenging all the things, Li Wenjun did not waste any more time, and he returned in the direction of Kaiyuan City with Qingfeng Immortal and the others. With a new artifact, it is the time to cultivate well, not to mention that there are invitations and so many gains, there is no need to force yourself to toss outside.
Returning to the treasure hunting gang in Kaiyuan City, the Qingfeng Immortals followed Li Wenjun's instructions and returned again in a high-profile manner. The steward in charge of the reception came out of the mountain gate again, and then identified the treasure that appeared from the Qingfeng Immortal.
Li Wenjun asked the Qingfeng Immortal to take out a total of sixteen vampire demon butterfly eggs this time, and he intercepted the thousands of vampire demon butterfly eggs under his body, and prepared to get rid of these vampire demon butterflies when the time was ripe in the future.
Li Wenjun didn't think about keeping these vampire butterflies, but thinking of what he saw in their lair, Li Wenjun was not interested.
Soon, the results of the identification of the treasure brought back by the Qingfeng Immortal came out. The result was unexpectedly good, and those who were waiting to see Li Wenjun's joke were all disappointed to the extreme.
With this return, Qingfeng Immortal's ranking within the Treasure Hunt Gang has risen a lot, and he once again used the new privileges he has to get a lot of classics and elixir prescriptions, just waiting for Li Wenjun to get out of the customs, he can send the gift as soon as possible.
Li Wenjun began the retreat, he first combed the mana in his body, and when his body and mind reached the best state, he began to cultivate. When he was in the No. 9 Half-Immortal Realm, he once got an elixir from Jintong Daxian that could quickly improve his strength, this elixir had great side effects, but for Li Wenjun, who was sitting on the Tree of Life, these side effects were equivalent to none.
Stimulated by a large number of pills, under the continuous consumption of the best spars, and with the passage of time, Li Wenjun's strength is skyrocketing every day, every time he takes the pills, he is in pain, but every time he can absorb the medicinal power of the pills, his strength will rise a little, a kind of growth that can be seen by the naked eye.
This time, Li Wenjun's repair speed was much faster, and it only took ten years for him to break through the merger period and become an immortal cultivator at the first level of the Tribulation Period, and after that, he fell into a bottleneck again, and the shortage of divine objects once again shackled his progress.
Li Wenjun has been in retreat, and when he was successfully promoted to the Tribulation Period, he did not come outside the Cave Mansion, and his Heavenly Tribulation had not yet been welcomed.
Li Wenjun came out of the customs, first suppressed his cultivation, and then came to thousands of miles outside Kaiyuan City, and under the joint protection of Tao Tao and Qingfeng Immortals, he began to cross the catastrophe.
When he crossed the tribulation, he was extremely terrifying, and he felt that the whole world was going to be torn apart by the tribulation, Li Wenjun relied on his own accumulation, with the continuous green light of life, and with his strong will, he survived one level after another in the tribulation.
Other people's first tribulation may have passed in half an hour, an hour, but Li Wenjun's tribulation lasted for nine hundred and eighty-one hours, nearly eight days, such a long heavenly tribulation, let alone on the immortal body, even on the immortal beast, it has never appeared.
When the catastrophe exhausted Li Wenjun and wanted to die, the catastrophe reached the end, Li Wenjun jumped and rushed into the clouds, he wanted to fight the catastrophe at close range. (To be continued......)
