"Coo, coo, coo!" It was so anxious that it almost spoke human language.

Of course Kong Ju was reluctant to give it up. The value of this Blue Flame Fire Lotus would definitely drive a fire cultivator crazy in any domain. Even a great master would find it difficult to resist the temptation.

Can be exchanged for massive resources.

But when I think of the scene of Dapeng fighting with the second prince before.

This cheap bird obviously has the qualifications to be a master of life.

If it could become stronger with the help of this Blue Flame Lotus, it would be a great help to itself.

Seeing that he had to hand over the Essence of Heaven and Earth that he had just obtained before it could even warm up, Kong Ju was also very depressed. He responded impatiently: "Give it to me! Stop shouting!"

Just as Kong Ju was about to hand the ice box to Dapeng.

"We can't give it to it now. Although Lei Zun has helped it refine the Xihuang Sunset Mist, it is too young and the Phoenix Blood in its body has not yet been fully activated. Now is not the best time." Huangfu Wuqin stopped Kong Ju and said seriously: "Give it to it after it has a natal glow."

It was only after Huangfu Wuqin's reminder that Kong Ju finally reacted.

Dapeng is only two years old this year.

Dapeng might not be able to handle both the Xihuang Sunset Glow and the Blue Flame Fire Lotus.

"Senior Sister Huangfu is right." Then, amid Dapeng's desperate cry, Kong Ju flipped his hand and put the Green Flame Lotus into the Qiankun Bag.

Cry! The roc was upset and flapped its wings in the air.

Kong Ju walked up to its neck, punched it twice symbolically, and cursed, "If you ask me to do that again, I'll pluck its hair. This is for your own good."

"I'll give it to you after you're pregnant. It won't get lost if you leave it with me!"

Kong Ju beat and scolded Dapeng, and only then did Dapeng nod aggrievedly.

The Blue Flame Fire Lotus was an unexpected surprise, so Kong Ju and the other two naturally did not want to leave just like that after getting this reward, and they circled in the sky for several more weeks.

See if there are any other spiritual creatures being ejected by the magma.

God helps those who work hard. With the help of Huangfu Wuqin's pupil technique, Kong Ju picked up two good-quality spiritual ores of the Shenglun level from the magma.

It is the material for refining top-grade magical weapons.

The value ranges from two to three thousand to three to five thousand.

After confirming that nothing was missed, the three of them rode on the big roc and left into the night.

A day later, Kong Ju and his companions finally returned to the safe path recorded on the map jade slip after traveling for half a month.

There was no more threat from monsters above the palm-born level along the way.

Dapeng was also able to spread out at full speed, heading towards Tianqi at a very gratifying speed.

Calculating the time, it will take about seven or eight days to reach Tianqi.

Kong Ju and the other two soared above the blue sky, summarizing the gains from this detour.

“Although the path outside the jade slip is extremely dangerous, there are also opportunities hidden in it because few people pass by.” Shangguan Yuzhou shook his head and was talking about the Blue Flame Lotus and two spiritual ores of the Ascension Level that were found on this trip.

Judging from what he said, he seemed to have the intention to continue exploring this wilderness.

Kong Ju certainly didn't dare to agree, and explained: "We encountered at least two places with life-giving auras along the way. If we weren't lucky, it would be a problem for us to have a chance to get out of this wilderness alive."

In fact, he didn't say it explicitly.

If he hadn't been able to sense the danger and avoid it in advance, this trip would have been very dangerous.

"That's right!" Shangguan Yuzhou thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Huangfu Wuqin had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong along the way.

Her strength is one level higher than Kong Ju's, and in terms of acuteness of perception, she is superior to him.

But in those two encounters, Zhang Sheng himself didn't react, but Kong Ju predicted it in advance, which surprised her.

He relaxed at the moment, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Looking at Kong Ju who was talking to Shangguan Yuzhou, he muttered silently, "Is this why he can always turn danger into safety?"

"No wonder he's everywhere!"

Kong Ju had no idea that he had been exposed in front of Huangfu Wuqin.

He walked out of the barrier of the Wind-Fixing Bead, and lay on Dapeng's head, squinting his eyes and enjoying the wind and waves blowing in his face. He was in a good mood and shouted, "Tianqi, the young master is here!"

"Mr. Shangguan, the swordsman from Tianqi, is here too!" How could Shangguan Yuzhou be missing at a time like this?

The two men lay side by side on Dapeng's head and roared, letting out hearty laughter.

"Are you two eight years old in total?" Huangfu Wuqin's helpless voice sounded behind him.

She seemed to have said this somewhere.

No conversation along the way.

Black Mountain was indeed an accident. After bypassing it, the road was smooth and there was no longer any existence that could threaten the three of them.

When we were about 20,000 to 30,000 miles away from Tianqi, it seemed that we would reach Tianqi in two days.

Now the three of them are not in a hurry to travel. When they come across places with elegant scenery, they can stop for a while and enjoy the mountains and rivers along the way without showing any sign of being in a hurry.

On this day, dark clouds descended, the sky was gloomy, and there was a light rain.

There is thick fog lingering among the mountains.

It’s not that it is afraid of rain, but it naturally hates rainy days. When it was in the Cangwu Sect, it would stay indoors when it rained and would lie in its cave and sleep soundly.

Kong Ju knew Dapeng's character very well. After taking a look at the foggy mountains below, he suggested to his two companions, "It won't be long anyway. Let's find a place to wait until the rain stops before leaving."

"This big roc makes strange noises all the way, it's annoying to listen to."

"Don't blame it. The Phoenix blood in its body is of the fire nature, and it naturally hates water." Huangfu Wuqin reached out and touched the back of Dapeng's neck, comforted it for a while and said, "Then wait until the rain stops before leaving."

Shangguan Yuzhou naturally had no objection.

At Kong Ju's signal, Dapeng began to lower its flying altitude and shuttled through the thick fog among the mountains.

The three began to look at the surrounding mountains, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain.

The altitude dropped in just a moment, and instead of finding a place to shelter from the rain, Kong Ju caught the fluctuation of spiritual power in his virtual soul vision.

It's not aura, but spiritual power.

Under the observation of the virtual soul, the fluctuation was like ripples, spreading out from a low-lying area in the dense forest right in front of it.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"The spiritual power is very weak, around the seventh level of Yanglun." After capturing this fluctuation of spiritual power and judging the man's strength, Kong Ju showed an interested expression on his face.

This area is still in the wilderness, and it is about 20,000 to 30,000 miles to the Weather Dynasty. How dare you come here with just the strength of the Yanglun realm?

This in itself is surprising.

"It seems we have met a fellow Taoist." Kong Ju immediately told Yu Huangfu Wuqin and Shangguan Yuzhou what he had seen.

Shangguan Yuzhou suggested: "Is it a cultivator from the Tianqi Dynasty? Let's go and take a look?"

As Kong Ju and the other two traveled along the way, they did not see a single cultivator except for monsters and various horrors in the wilderness.

It's a rare opportunity to meet someone, so naturally I have to go up and negotiate with him.

Shangguan Yuzhou's proposal was supported by Kong Ju and Huangfu Wuqin.

The three of them immediately rode on the big peng and descended towards the direction of the spiritual power fluctuations sensed by Kong Ju.

However, when they were still two or three miles away from the target, Kong Ju suddenly asked Dapeng to stop, with a look of surprise on his face.

At this distance, even Shangguan Yuzhou could see the scene beneath the dense forest.

But I saw a short man in the muddy forest, bending over the corpse of a fox-like monster, busy doing something.

He was wearing a coat made of wild animal fur, which was soaked by the rain. His skin, which was exposed to the air, was covered with strange tattoos.

It can be vaguely discerned from the tattoo pattern that it is a picture of a monster.

The tattoos were scattered all over the place, covering a wide area, even half of the man's cheek, revealing a thin face with a wildness in his eyes that the monk Wudong did not have.

"He is not a cultivator from the Tianqi Dynasty!" With just one glance, Huangfu Wuqin was certain of the man's identity.

This was also the reason why Kong Ju asked Da Peng to stop. After listening to Huangfu Wuqin's words, he also added: "Like the witch cultivators in Gujiang, only witch cultivators like to have these strange tattoos on their faces. It is related to the skills they practice and is very easy to identify."

"It's strange. Even the people of the Tianqi Dynasty rarely set foot in this area. How could there be a sorcerer from Gujiang?" Shangguan Yuzhou held his sword and looked at the Gujiang cultivator who was dealing with the corpse of a monster in the woods, and curled his lips slightly.

The three of them and Dapeng were all Shenglun monks, so it was very easy for them to avoid his eyes.

Therefore, Kong Ju and the others talked for a long time, and the monk from Gujiang did not notice anything unusual.

Until the Gujiang monk sat next to the monster, drew a strange symbol on his forehead with the monster's blood, and muttered something.

Some strange power suddenly descended upon the forest, causing the rain above the witch's head to freeze.

As that power descended, an illusory fox shadow slowly floated out from the monster's corpse and flew towards the witch cultivator's head.

Until it sank into the symbol he made with blood and disappeared.

Kong Ju narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this scene. He thought of his own sacrifice to the Snow Spirit, which seemed to be similar to what the witch did.

"He is offering a sacrifice!" Huangfu Wuqin had followed the ancestor since he was a child and recognized Wu Xiu's actions at a glance.

"It's very interesting. I heard that there are obscene sacrifices everywhere in Gujiang, which are often related to some strange existences. Countless witches have died in obscene sacrifices."

After obtaining the Soul-Calming Bell, Kong Ju read a lot of books about Gujiang in the library, so he was not surprised by the scene in front of him. Instead, he said with interest: "It is indeed strange after seeing it today."

"Anything related to sacrifice is bound to be bad." Shangguan Yuzhou's voice suddenly turned cold, and his hand was already on the sword, as if he was ready to kill the witch in front of him with the sword.

Ever since the battle at the Starry Sky Altar, when Lingxi sacrificed himself and called down the man in black, Shangguan Yuzhou has become somewhat wary of all sacrificial acts.

He winked at Kong Ju, as if asking whether he should take action.

"Don't panic, let's take a look again. It's impossible for a cultivator like him to come here. He might have companions here." Kong Ju shook his head and stopped Shangguan Yuzhou's murderous intent.

Anyway, it's only two or three days away from Tianqi, so there's plenty of time. Kong Ju doesn't mind wasting a little more time here.

"Then let's take a look. It will help you pass the time." Huangfu Wuqin had no objection.

The way the witch offered sacrifice was different from the way Kong Ju had offered sacrifice to the Snow Spirit before.

After the sacrifice, the monster's flesh and blood were intact. The witch took out an earthen jar and collected all the monster's blood.

Afterwards, he peeled off the monster's fur that was stained with mud and water.

Only then did he leave the jungle feeling satisfied.

"Follow me!" Kong Ju patted Da Peng, who was in a bad mood, and the latter followed the witch cultivator reluctantly. (End of this chapter)
