Ning Xuan was unexpectedly sucked into a spatial rift during her secret realm training. Protected by the spirit plant, Ghost-faced Red Vine, her soul escaped the rift and arrived in an unfamiliar w...
Chapter 187 Temporary Residence
Ning Xuan saw Jiuwei trying to cut off the meat of the beast and immediately stopped him, "Just leave the skin, don't take the other things."
"Master, the meat of this strange beast can be eaten. I have tested it and it is not poisonous." Jiuwei said attentively.
"It's too ugly. I won't eat it. Let's go." Ning Xuan urged. Ning Xuan saw that the strange beast looked like an enlarged gray mouse and didn't want to eat it at all.
With their strength, they won't have to worry about not being able to hunt exotic beasts. Since Ning Xuan said so, the others had no objection and continued on their journey in the reassembled mechanical vehicle.
They killed many strange beasts along the way, and when it was almost noon, they came to a hidden valley. It was surrounded by mountains, and the entrance was covered by dense vines. If it weren't for the golden rat that Zhang Nan released to keenly sense the energy fluctuations inside, it would be almost impossible to find it.
The moment they stepped into the valley, rich spiritual energy surged like a tide, stretching every pore on their body. Ning Xuan took a deep breath, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "The energy concentration here is at least ten times that outside!"
After entering the valley, they found that the area inside was surprisingly wide. Although the trees and rocks blocked the sunlight, the stone walls beside the valley naturally grew luminous fluorite, which illuminated the valley very brightly. In the center of the valley was a clear green spring, which was glittering, and various rare spiritual plants grew around it. Several snow-white mountain foxes were drinking water by the spring. They were not panicked when they saw someone breaking in, but just looked at them curiously.
"Master, this place is perfect for training!" Nine-Tailed Fox shook his ears excitedly, "We can practice here."
Before he finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook violently. Ripples appeared on the surface of the spring water, and the surrounding spiritual plants moved without wind. The surface of the spring water rolled as if it was boiling, and the ripples were no longer gentle ripples, but turned into hideous cracks.
"Be careful!" Ning Xuan swung out the vines and dragged the Nine-Tailed Fox back.
Before Jiuwei could stand firm, he heard a loud "boom" and the spring water exploded into a column several feet high. In the splashing water, a huge monster broke out of the water, and the fishy wind it brought blew in his face.
The moment the strange beast revealed its full appearance, all members of Ning Xuan's team were stunned. The part of the beast that emerged from the water was more than three meters long, and its entire body was covered with blue and black scales. Each scale was the size of a palm, and the edges were as sharp as a knife. The most terrifying thing was that its neck was forked, with two hideous heads - the left head was red as blood, and the surface was covered with volcanic cracks, while the right head was dark blue and covered with frost-like scales. Four copper bell-like eyes locked onto everyone at the same time, with strange vertical pupils, and it seemed that there was fire and frost flowing inside.
"This is a two-headed dragon of ice and fire. How could this legendary alien species appear here?" Yun Mo said puzzledly.
At this time, the two heads of the strange beast roared at the same time, and the sound waves hit everyone's chest like a substance. Ning Xuan felt that all her internal organs were displaced, her eardrums were stinging, and a warm liquid flowed out of her nose. She wiped the blood from her nose and turned around to see Zhang Nan, Tang Xue, and Wang Yue, who were weak, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands in pain.
Ning Xuan glanced at Lin Mo, and Lin Mo immediately released the King's Guardian to protect those who had lost their combat effectiveness.
The red head of the two-headed dragon suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a column of blazing white fire spewed out towards Ning Xuan. Ning Xuan instinctively dodged to the side. When the column of fire passed by, she could feel the hot breath of the column of fire. Where she was originally standing, a half-human-high rock was directly vaporized in the column of fire, leaving only a molten red on the ground.
The dark blue head on the other side spewed out a black mist. Wherever the mist passed, thick frost formed on the ground, freezing everything.
The two-headed dragon launched attacks one after another. Ning Xuan evaluated the combat effectiveness of this strange beast. According to the Federation's calculation of comprehensive combat effectiveness, the two-headed dragon's comprehensive combat effectiveness is probably at the SS level.
"Di Youlin, I leave it to you." Ning Xuan commanded the others to retreat and told Di Youlin to deal with the strange beast.
Di Youlin agreed, flapped his wings and rushed forward to fight with the strange beast.
Although Di Youlin's mental power was suppressed by the rules, his fighting power was not affected too much. However, the two-headed dragon kept roaring towards the sky and emitting sonic attacks, which prevented Di Youlin from going all out. He fought with the strange beast for more than a dozen rounds, causing the rocks in the valley to shake. Ning Xuan couldn't help but look at Qinghe.
Qinghe immediately bowed to Ning Xuan, jumped, and pounced on the strange beast. He grabbed its scales and climbed to its neck, then climbed to its ice-blue head. He leaned forward and inserted his own scales into the beast's throat.
The shrill cry of the strange beast disappeared in an instant, as if it was stuck by a thorn, unable to vomit or swallow. Di Youlin seized the opportunity and chopped off the other side of the beast's head.
Qinghe's natal dragon scale had also pierced the throat of the other head of the strange beast. The strange beast finally let out a last wail, and its huge body fell down with a bang, stirring up waves all over the sky.
The two-headed dragon died, and Ning Xuan found an inner elixir of a strange beast in the heart of the two-headed dragon. Not all strange beasts can produce inner elixirs. Only strange beasts with high levels and high bloodline talents can produce inner elixirs.
Each inner elixir is priceless.
After Ning Xuan and her group dissected the body of the two-headed dragon, Ning Xuan searched around the valley and finally found a blue lotus growing not far from a clear spring.
This lotus bloomed quietly in the misty water vapor, its petals showing an almost transparent ice-blue color, with tiny dewdrops condensed on the edges of each petal. The most amazing thing was the aura emanating from the entire lotus, which gave people a feeling of tranquility. As soon as Ning Xuan approached, she felt that her blood energy was particularly active, and the acupoints that had been stagnant during her previous cultivation actually seemed to be loosening.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Nine-Transformation Ice Soul Lotus." Ning Xuan picked the lotus and put it away, then said to others.
As a master of alchemy, Ning Xuan has mastered almost all the maps of exotic plants that the Federation can find. Naturally, she recognizes the Nine-Turn Ice Soul Lotus.
Since God has let her come here, then this Nine-Turn Ice Soul Lotus is prepared for her, and she must pick this lotus.
"Master, I have prepared a new flavor of barbecue, come and try it." Jiuwei greeted Ning Xuan happily.
Jiuwei was in charge of food. He knew Ning Xuan's taste well, so he not only prepared barbecue, but also handed Ning Xuan a pot of wine. They sat around the fire, eating and drinking. The flames crackled, and listening to the tinkling sound of the clear springs in the valley, Ning Xuan felt a rare sense of comfort.
The environment of this valley is so good and hidden, and the energy in the valley is particularly strong. They have just built such a good temporary residence, so it's time to drink some wine to celebrate.
