Chapter 80: The Hunt
In the blink of an eye, he walked out of the residual fog that kept cruising, and when he saw this basin, his heart suddenly changed, and when he looked up, he saw the seven-colored lotus that many monks who had assessed the test, Zhang Yan could be said to be in a good mood, slightly excited and proud.
But he was about to pick the elixir, but he was stopped by an inexplicable scolding, and had to stop, his whole body became defensive in an instant, and he turned his head vigilantly.
Zhang Yan was careless, but he didn't feel anyone approaching, and now he turned his head to look and saw more than a dozen young men in white robes walking out of the woods, all of them looking indifferent and arrogant, one of them was a young man with an arrogant face, staring at him coldly, and the previous reprimand was issued by this arrogant young man.
Children of the Song family!
And this person is not exactly the same person who just landed on Chixia Beach before,
Zhang Yan's whole body tightened, and the corners of his eyes twitched, but the next moment, his whole body changed quietly, and he subconsciously took two steps back, and then his face was slightly pale, and his mana was slightly exposed, making a look of fear, and said in a trembling voice: "Pavilion...... Your Excellency, this elixir was discovered first. ”
"Third Senior Brother, it's just a guy at the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Period, you can just destroy it with your hands, and save trouble!" A young man in white walked out from behind the arrogant young man, looking at Zhang Yan with a cold light in his eyes.
"Hmph, a small Qi Refining Seventh Layer, don't pay attention to it, don't provoke others to notice this side of the basin. The arrogant young man snorted coldly, and turned to Zhang Yan and sneered, "You still want the elixir? Now we just want to get enough elixir, if we don't want to kill you, if you don't want to die, give me back!"
Zhang Yan heard the words of the two clearly, and his face had already made fear and whiteness, and then the two fought, as if he was very afraid, and stammered in a trembling voice: "In ...... Walk away, elixir...... I don't want it either!"
After Zhang Yan finished speaking, he quickly turned around and rushed towards the other end of the basin, but he couldn't run a few steps, but he suddenly stumbled, fell to the ground, looked back with a frightened face, and found that the dozen or so teenagers looked at it with a big smile, did not pursue, his face slowed, he got up and continued to run, and suddenly disappeared into the deep forest.
"Hmph, ants are just timid and afraid of death, and I don't know how this person has mixed up refining the Divine Dao!" The arrogant young man sneered, and then said, "Let's search this part of the basin first, don't alarm the children of other families or loose cultivators, if you meet someone coming, persuade them to leave, it's really not good to use it again, there is a second elixir on this island, now is not the time to consume strength." ”
The dozen or so white-clothed young men behind him, after listening to the young man's words, immediately put away their contempt, and changed their faces to Zhang Yan's mocking smile, all of them looked solemn, and the words of the young man should be answered one by one.
Zhang Yan came to the woods at the other end of the basin, stopped, looked back, no one followed behind him, the expression on his face suddenly changed, and he returned to calm, where was there still the previous fear.
"The people of the Song family are really domineering, and those people who were abolished before don't seem to be excessive!"
Thinking of the elixir that he was going to get before, Zhang Yan was annoyed, but although the seven-colored lotus was precious, he was not going to joke with his life, if he directly picked the elixir just now, those people would definitely be entangled and chased after him.
Not to mention that the arrogant young man who took the lead was a cultivator at the eleventh layer of the Qi Refining Period, just with those dozen or so young men at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Refining Period, it would be difficult for him to escape, plus this island was full of fog and extremely weird, he didn't want to die.
Zhang Yan stood in place and pondered for a moment, and decided to go to a place far away from the children of the Song family to find it, the assessment has reached this point, if you can't even get the four elixirs, it will be a failure, then Tie Yang Cao and the others will reunite with Lu Boyun and others to make plans.
The most important thing now is to collect all the elixirs as soon as possible, pass the assessment, and enter the Ancient Sword Gate.
The woods on the edge of the basin have almost no residual mist, and they are not as vicious and poisonous as the periphery, although they are not harmful to immortal cultivators, but they are also very troublesome.
Zhang Yan let go of his senses, swept low among the trees, and ran towards the other end of the basin, guarding his surroundings while probing the ground for seven-colored lotuses.
According to Li Qian, the seven-colored lotus generally grows in a place where the ground is damp and the aura is abundant, and there is no fixed distribution, and it will also be guarded by waves and butterflies.
After about two miles of land, Zhang Yan gradually slowed down, looked around, there was no trace, and decided to start looking for it here, if there was no seven-colored lotus, then change places.
But half an hour passed, and after exploring a mile of land, I didn't even see the leaves of the seven-colored lotus, but I picked a lot of other elixirs, such as the Jiuding Leaf and Flying Tobacco used to refine the Netherworld Pill and the Knot Continuation Pill, which were all elixirs that could only be used by monks and above in the foundation building period, and they were extremely precious.
However, Zhang Yan couldn't get excited, he was full of depression, sighed, and was about to find another place, but just as he walked out of the distance of only ten feet, suddenly a few faint conversations came from under the basin woods.
"Luo Shao, this is the last one, and then kill the last one of the waves, the seven-colored lotus inside is ours!" The man's voice was excited and excited.
"Big brother, this last demon beast, just leave it to me and Yu Yang, you consumed too much before, rest for a while. The other voice was equally excited, and his tone was full of eagerness.
"That's not necessary, this wave of cloud butterflies is not easy to deal with, just now we finally led out one by one, each killed, and now there is the last one left, and we have to go all out." The last word seemed calmer, his voice was rough, and a buzzing sound came.
"Yu Yang, Wuba, Xin Tao, cooperate with us, surround Langyun Butterfly, kill it in one fell swoop, don't wait for it to release the poisonous mist!"
The calm and rough voice came again, and it looked extremely solemn.
Zhang Yan was attracted by this brief conversation, stopped, and his body fell silently like a feather on a big tree in the woods, looking down.
Below is a low ground in the basin, but it is very clear, there is no residual fog, there is a white beard, tall young man, with four teenagers, will fly out of a vine-covered stream all the way to the wave cloud butterfly surrounded, several people at the same time sacrifice magic weapons, before the wave cloud butterfly reacts, it has been submerged by a pile of magic weapons.
After a low thud and a flash of light, the ground was already covered with the shattered corpses of the Wave Butterflies and the colorful wings.
"Pick the seven-colored lotus quickly, and change when you are late!" the tall young man looked around vigilantly and shouted in a deep voice.
The four teenagers didn't dare to delay, and they were about to enter the stream and pick the seven-colored lotus, but then the situation changed abruptly.
On the side of the stream, the vines were cleaved into pieces by a flying sword, and one by one, several figures flashed out of it, blocking the way for the four teenagers to enter the stream.
"What kind of person!" The young man with a rough voice was startled, and shouted loudly, and when he saw the person clearly, his face couldn't help but be gloomy, he took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "It turned out to be all the Taoist friends of the Song family, in Xia Luo Fenglou, we just killed a wave cloud butterfly, you won't be robbing us of the elixir, right?"
"It turned out to be the eldest and youngest of the Luo family, I have been looking up for a long time, in the Lower Song Blood Mountain, our Song family has already covered the basin here, and I originally wanted to go here to get this elixir, but I didn't want Brother Luo to help us solve the troublesome Langyun Butterfly, I am really grateful!"
Several figures appeared, all of them were young men dressed in white, and the one who took the lead in speaking was a young man with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, handsome, with a delicate face, and a shallow scar on the left side of his face, and the whole person looked like another evil spirit was revealed.
The four teenagers of the Luo family, who were blocked, suddenly turned pale when they heard Song Xueshan's name, and their bodies trembled slightly and retreated to Luo Fenglou's side.
Luo Fenglou's originally gloomy face changed again, full of Tie Qinghe and showed fear, and said slowly: "It turned out to be the fourth young master of the Song family, since Daoyou has taken a fancy to this, I will wait for it to be released." ”
Luo Fenglou glanced at the four teenagers beside him, and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by several teenagers from the Song family.
"Hehe, when you see me Song Xueshan, you want to leave like this?" Song Xueshan grinned and said with a smirk at Luo Fenglou.
"What do you want?" Luo Fenglou's face turned slightly pale and asked in a deep voice.
But as soon as Luo Fenglou's words fell, a flying sword as fast as lightning stabbed towards Luo Fenglou.
This sudden attack caught Luo Fenglou and several people off guard, and a few people didn't expect that this Song Xueshan would take advantage of people's unpreparedness to suddenly attack.
However, Luo Fenglou was not slow in his hand, he turned over and took out a silver-gray shield, blocked it, and blocked the blood-red flying sword from the imperial envoy of Song Xueshan, but his whole person was still repelled for a long distance.
As soon as Song Xueshan made such a move, the other Song family disciples were even more slow, and they had already attacked several teenagers of the Luo family violently.
Song Xueshan couldn't strike a blow, but he didn't get angry, he made a flying sword and continued to move forward, but it fell towards the four girls of the Luo family.
"Big brother, let's go!
One of the young men of the Luo family saw Song Xueshan attacking them, and suddenly yelled at Luo Fenglou.
"Don't!"
As soon as Luo Fenglou's words fell, Song Xueshan's blood-red flying sword passed through the Luo family who were fighting with several teenagers of the Song family like lightning, and the "poof......" came continuously, and several people of the Luo family couldn't stop Song Xueshan's sword at all, and they were either cut through the neck or cut at the waist, and they all fell to the ground silently.
"Smoke seal!"
Luo Fenglou's eyes were red, and he roared hoarsely, but reason still prevailed, and he glanced at his younger brother who fell to the ground with moist eyes, and the whole person flew in a flash, disappeared into the woods, and fled away.
"Pick up all their storage bags, then get the seven-colored lotus, speed to other places, and pick all the elixirs in this basin!" Song Xueshan didn't even glance at the corpses on the ground, and with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he commanded.
Several young children of the Song family responded and immediately got busy.
Zhang Yan hid in the tree, he had already seen all this clearly, and when he saw Song Xueshan killing a few people like thunder, he was neat and skillful, and he was already cold in his heart, and his cold hair stood on end.
And Zhang Yan was also annoyed in his heart, he had already thought about waiting for Luo Fenglou and a few people to kill Lang Yundie, and then he took the opportunity to make a move, get the elixir, and escape in an instant, picking up a bargain, but he didn't want this opportunity to get the elixir, or was muddyed by the people of the Song family.
"Could it be that I am very 'in love' with the Song family?"
Zhang Yan laughed at himself in his heart, his brows were tightened, thinking about how to get the first elixir, if he dragged it out any longer, then the elixir here would really be picked by others.
"Hehe, isn't it very aggrieved?" Xiao Shizi suddenly heard the voice of Xuyuanzi, and his tone was full of schadenfreude, so that when people heard the voice, the first thing that came to mind was an old and indecent appearance.
Zhang Yan was already depressed, and when he was said like this, he almost choked, rolled his eyes, and said with annoyance: "Then senior, do you have any good ideas?"
"Hehe, it's very simple!" Xuyuanzi's tone changed suddenly, and he said gloomily, "Seeing that there is no aura here, it is extremely rich, why don't you find a secluded place first, spend a day cultivating, plus many qi induction pills, you can definitely raise your cultivation to the eighth layer of the qi refining period, and when the time comes, hehe, you are in the dark, these small pieces of the Song family, from the single start, each of them to break the hunt, all of them have taken the elixir, and see that they are still arrogant." Moreover, don't forget the enmity between Beiyuanshan and his family and the whole village, this is just the right place to kill!"
Hearing what Xuan Yuanzi said, Zhang Yan's chest suddenly blocked, and the next moment, his brows spread, his eyes were calm, and he glanced at the figure below that Song Xueshan had obtained the elixir and went away, turned around, and flew towards the outside of the basin.
At the edge of the basin, towards the center of the island, there is no blood-red mist, but dense forests that are connected together and separated by small slopes and huge rocks.
Zhang Yan dug a small cave in front of a secluded small mountain rock close to the blood-red residual mist, and arranged a small early warning formation around the small mountain stone, and then entered the cave mansion.
Along the way, Zhang Yan found that the more in the staggered area of the clear sky and the residual fog, the stronger the aura, and finally chose this place.
Moreover, at this moment, the people on the entire island were looking for elixirs, and they would not have thought that someone was cultivating in retreat.
The rich aura invaded the small cave mansion, making Zhang Yan feel comfortable for a while, and immediately took out a handful of Qi Induction Pill, took it, ran the Qing Ling Gong, and began to absorb the surrounding aura while refining the elixir.
Two days later, on a mountain rock at the bottom of the plate, a spiritual energy fluctuation faintly came, but it only lasted a few breaths before it calmed down.
Behind a big tree at the rock, Zhang Yan, who was dressed in coarse cloth, walked out, at this moment, his whole person has become different, his eyes are more calm and profound, and his mana is even more powerful than Lu Boyun at the eleventh layer of the Qi refining period.
"Sure enough, it's just a cultivation fall, it's still the realm of the ninth layer of the Qi refining period, as long as you have enough aura, there will be no obstacles to ascending!"
Zhang Yan sighed, looked up in the direction of the basin, his eyes were cold, and he muttered to himself: "Song family, this assessment is the first step in revenge!"
Half a day later, in the dense forest in the depths of the basin, the three white-clothed young men of the Song family were exploring the depths of the basin, as if they were looking for elixir, talking and laughing, and sometimes they seemed to be chatting to the top of their hearts, and the three teenagers couldn't help but laugh obscenely.
"Thorn, stab, stab, stab......"
Three piercing sounds of flesh and bones cracking, and then the three white-clothed young men, who were still talking and laughing while walking, turned their whole bodies into halves, and they didn't even make a scream, and they were already in a different place.
A faint black light, after bypassing the three white-clothed teenagers, flew back behind a big tree in the blink of an eye and disappeared.
