Chapter 408 The Mysterious Soul Realm Man (asking for monthly ticket)
The sunset glows on the mountain peaks.
Sacred and solemn.
The immortal palace stands on the top of the mountain. At this moment, the palace door slowly opens and purple air floats out.
Around the five mountains surrounding the immortal palace, dozens of ferocious beasts in the late stage of transformation of the spirit flew towards the mountains the moment the purple energy appeared.
In the sea of clouds in the sky, a dragon shadow roared down towards the mountain.
The sudden action of the dragon shadow caused the other ferocious beasts around the mountain to roar in anger. It was obvious that the ferocious beast was hiding there and they were not aware of it.
Roar! A ferocious beast with the appearance of a giant lizard opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of molten flames. The moment the molten lava spewed out, bursts of water mist appeared in the air.
The magma turned into a streak and shot towards the dragon shadow. At the same time, other ferocious beasts also took action to prevent the dragon shadow from approaching the palace on the top of the mountain.
Dozens of powerful late-stage Jindan masters attacked at the same time, causing the surrounding space to distort. The dragon shadow that was hit first was at the center of the energy, with blood splattering everywhere. Finally, it had to retreat.
Swish! Just as the dragon shadow retreated back into the sky, the other beasts simultaneously headed for the top of the mountain.
Whoever enters the palace first will have the greatest opportunity.
Bang! The monitor lizard stepped into the mountain peak, and the slender beak of a flying bird next to it stabbed at the monitor lizard like a sword. The monitor lizard swept its tail, and the surrounding rocks shattered and shot towards the wings of the giant bird.
On another mountain, a brown bear with a body of several hundred feet tall stepped on the waist of a giant tiger, and the giant tiger's sharp claws pierced the brown bear's abdomen.
…
All the ferocious beasts started fighting, countless energy waves swept down from the mountain peaks, and there were more ferocious beasts in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation, staring at them hungrily at the foot of the mountain.
"Whatever opportunity there is in that palace, I'm afraid we don't have a chance."
When Lu Sizhong saw this astonishing battle scene, his eyelids twitched. Not to mention going up the mountain, with so many ferocious beasts watching him, he would be dead if he showed his head.
A quarter of an hour later, those late-stage Spirit Transformation beasts had reached the halfway point of the mountain. The middle-stage Spirit Transformation beasts at the foot of the mountain finally could not sit still anymore and also started heading up the mountain.
"Isn't this the three-headed snake that caused us to flee in such a panic?"
Chu Ning and Ning Feng looked in the direction Lu Sizhong was looking. At the foot of the mountain, a giant snake with two heads was crawling towards the mountain, but the next moment, the two heads of the giant snake were pressed to the ground.
A white horse covered in white fur and surrounded by lightning stepped on the two heads of the giant snake with its feet.
Click!
The giant snake's head burst, blood splattered all over the ground, and its body struggled on the ground for a while before becoming motionless, while the white horse quickly went up the mountain.
"It's so horrible. The giant snake that made us flee in panic was trampled to death."
Lu Sizhong felt cold all over, and Chu Ning's expression was not much better. Although he was just a clone and could be resurrected after death, it did not mean that he would go and die if he knew it was a suicide.
“It’s not like we don’t have a chance.”
Ning Feng spoke slowly, looking at Chu Ning, who pondered and asked, "What's the Fourth Princess's plan?"
"The opportunities in this palace have nothing to do with us, but there are many spiritual medicines on these mountains. You two should have noticed it. We can make some plans for these spiritual medicines."
In addition to the fairy palace, there are many spiritual medicines on the five mountains. Chu Ning and Lu Sizhong are both alchemists, so they naturally understand spiritual medicines.
But the two of them did not recognize the elixir on the mountain.
I’m afraid these elixirs are not from the northern border.
Although the origins of these spiritual medicines are unknown, judging from their size, color, and the light they emit, they are definitely high-level spiritual medicines, possibly even eighth-level spiritual medicines.
"The fourth princess wants us to take these spiritual medicines, but don't forget that if we appear on this mountain, I'm afraid these ferocious beasts will attack us."
Chu Ning frowned. The reason why the three of them had not been attacked by the ferocious beasts was, on the one hand, that they had concealed their aura, but more importantly, the attention of these ferocious beasts was on the palace on the top of the mountain, and they didn't pay any attention to them.
Moreover, these late-stage fierce beasts might not have failed to discover them, but in the eyes of these late-stage fierce beasts, the three of them were no different from reptiles, so these beasts were too lazy to pay attention to them.
"My Purple Gold Dynasty has a magical power called the Official Road. No one except the government officials can enter the Official Road. I can open the Official Road and lead directly to the spiritual medicine on the mountain. You two can pick the spiritual medicine and return quickly."
After Ning Feng finished speaking, Lu Sizhong looked at Chu Ning. Whether to believe Ning Feng or not was up to Chu Ning to judge. He just needed to know that Chu Ning would not cheat him, and that Chu Ning was better than him in calculating human hearts.
Leave the thinking work to Chu Ning. This is the experience he has learned over the years.
"OK."
Chu Ning nodded in agreement. At this moment, the ferocious beasts in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm had already rushed into the palace, and the ferocious beasts still crawling on the mountain were all in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Although he was no match for these ferocious beasts, Chu Ning believed that he could escape with his Aurora Wings.
After getting Chu Ning's consent, Ning Feng formed seals with her hands, and a seal flew out from between her eyebrows. Different from the third-grade official seal that Yang Tao had offered when he was killed by Qing Wei, the seal that flew out from between Ning Feng's eyebrows had a dragon image on the top.
This is an imperial seal.
The imperial seal was suspended in the air, and the official majesty was everywhere.
As Ning Feng's hand seals changed, these official powers condensed into shape and turned into a stone path like a rainbow piercing the moon, which was built on the top of the mountain where a magical medicine was planted.
There are many shining runes on both sides of the stone road. The stone road is covered with a layer of yellow soil, emitting a warm yellow light.
Yellow Earth Clean Road! Many beasts on the mountain also noticed this stone road, especially the beasts that were leaning against the spiritual medicine. Their expressions immediately became ferocious. One of the beasts, which was covered with spikes and had heavy leather armor, rushed directly into the stone road with its huge body.
Boom! The rocks shattered, and a deep pit was left wherever the giant beast passed. But when it hit the stone road, the stone road just shook a little and still stood there.
"Mr. Chu, hurry up."
Ning Feng's face turned pale. Chu Ning saw that the stone path could indeed stop the ferocious beasts, so he did not hesitate. He stepped onto the stone path and rushed towards the mountain elixir.
Seeing Chu Ning appear on the stone road, all the ferocious beasts around the stone road went crazy, rushed towards the stone road, and hit it frantically.
Ning Feng's hands were trembling slightly as she formed seals, and tiny beads of sweat appeared on her fair and plump forehead. It was obvious that controlling the stone path from being destroyed by the ferocious beasts was a huge drain on Ning Feng.
Chu Ning came to the spiritual medicine in front of the stone path. It was a six-leaf spiritual medicine with a purple fruit in the middle. Although he didn't know the name of this spiritual medicine, many of its habits were the same.
The fruit is bluish-purple, and it is obvious that it still has some time to fully mature, but it has a medicinal fragrance and can be picked. However, the medicinal effect will not be as good as before.
A little regretful.
But Chu Ning picked them without hesitation. If he missed this opportunity, it would never be his turn.
After picking the spiritual herbs, Chu Ning took out a jade box from the storage bag. This was a jade box specially used to store spiritual herbs, which could ensure that the medicinal effects would not be lost. Each jade box was worth one spiritual crystal.
After putting away the jade box, Chu Ning stood on the stone road. Ning Feng saw that Chu Ning had already picked the spiritual herbs, and his handprints began to change. As the handprints changed, the stone road also began to move, heading towards another spiritual herb on the right.
Whoosh! Chu Ning picked the spiritual medicine quickly and put it away just like before.
After repeating this several times, he had already picked three magical herbs.
roar!
There was a ferocious beast guarding the elixir. When it saw Chu Ning picking the elixir, it stopped heading towards the top of the mountain and roared angrily before heading towards Ning Feng and Lu Sizhong.
Obviously, the goal of some spiritual beasts is the same as Chu Ning and his friends. They are not coming for the palace, but for these spiritual medicines.
In the past, these mountains were watched by ferocious beasts in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and these ferocious beasts in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm did not dare to make any move. But now, the ferocious beasts in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm have entered the palace, which gives them an opportunity.
Now seeing that the spiritual medicine was picked by Chu Ning, he was naturally extremely angry, but he could not do anything to Chu Ning who was standing on the stone road, so he went towards Ning Feng.
There was not just one ferocious beast moving in the same way, but several ferocious beasts were roaring towards them. Ning Feng and Lu Sizhong's expressions changed instantly. Lu Sizhong gritted his teeth and took out a bottle from his storage bag.
"Earth Devouring Ashes!"
Lu Sizhong carefully opened the bottle cap, and a wisp of black mist floated out of the bottle mouth.
The black fog was strange. It dispersed after floating out of the bottle mouth. Although the black fog became thinner after dispersing, it enveloped all the ferocious beasts that rushed over.
The thin fog mysteriously stopped the ferocious beasts, and the beasts trapped in it looked confused.
At the same time, Chu Ning took this opportunity to return to the end of the stone path. Ning Feng also put away the stone path, and the three of them retreated to the rear without hesitation.
I can't enter the palace. I have obtained three spiritual herbs. If I stay any longer, I will be surrounded by ferocious beasts and won't be able to leave.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Brother Lu, I didn't expect you to have such a good thing. You can even trap a mid-stage Spiritualization beast."
Retreating back into the mist, Chu Ning patted Lu Sizhong on the shoulder. Lu Sizhong said helplessly, "This is the life-saving item my father left me. This black mist is made from the ashes of elixirs, and they are all the ashes of seventh-grade spiritual medicines. This little black mist is almost the ashes of twenty furnaces of seventh-grade elixirs."
An alchemist who can refine seventh-grade elixirs can probably only refine about 20 to 30 batches of seventh-grade elixirs in his lifetime. After all, in addition to refining elixirs, he also has to practice, and if he has disciples, he has to refine low-grade elixirs for them.
A furnace of seventh-grade elixirs would take at least several years, or at most several decades.
"These three spiritual herbs, each of us three will get one."
Chu Ning took out three spiritual herbs from the storage bag and said to Ning Feng generously, "Fourth Princess has made great efforts, so let her choose first."
The corner of Ning Feng's lips twitched. She didn't know much about spiritual medicine and couldn't tell which of the three spiritual medicines were good and which were bad.
"Master Chu will make the arrangements."
Ning Feng declined. She wanted to kick the ball back to Chu Ning. Chu Ning would not give her the worst elixir. Otherwise, if the news got out, Chu Ning would lose face in the world of cultivators.
Unfortunately, she underestimated Chu Ning.
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Ning handed her the jade box on the left without hesitation.
When Lu Sizhong, who was standing by, saw the elixirs in the jade box, his expression became strange. Although he did not know the names and functions of these three elixirs, he could judge a thing or two by smelling them, observing their shapes and concentrating their spirits.
The spiritual medicine that Chu Ning gave Ning Feng was obviously the youngest, and it should not be the main medicine, but an auxiliary medicine.
The so-called main medicine and spiritual medicine refer to the main medicine in the alchemy prescription. The main medicine has a characteristic that it can be taken directly, while the auxiliary medicine cannot be taken directly. The value of the two is very different.
"Brother Lu, this one is for you."
"good."
Lu Sizhong took the jade box handed over by Chu Ning and put it directly into the storage bag.
"What should we do now, you and I?"
Chu Ning looked at Lu Sizhong and Ning Feng, and Lu Sizhong said directly: "Chu Ning, I'm ready to leave here."
"Back to the outer areas?"
"No, I just left the hunting ground directly."
Lu Sizhong smiled bitterly and said, "If we go back to the outer area, we won't be able to pass the fog. We have also seen the inside of this hunting ground. With my strength, I am just cannon fodder if I stay here. If this is the case, I might as well leave and enter the next level as soon as possible."
Hearing Lu Sizhong's words, a gleam of light flashed in Chu Ning's eyes. He couldn't tell Lu Sizhong that this was the last level of Zifu Academy.
"Where's the fourth princess?"
"I'll wait a while." Ning Feng said slowly.
"Okay, I'll wait too."
Chu Ning nodded. He would not leave easily. As for the luck consumed in this fog, it was nothing to him.
"Take care, both of you."
Lu Sizhong clasped his fists and then sent a message to Chu Ning: "I always feel that the fourth princess has a trump card. You should be careful and don't get fooled."
"Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, I will leave."
Chu Ning and Lu Sizhong exchanged a few words through voice transmission, and then Lu Sizhong rushed out of the fog and headed towards the ferocious beast in front.
"You beast, take my slide!"
Lu Sizhong, dead! Chu Ning's mouth twitched as he watched.
…
…
In the fog, Chu Ning and Ning Feng just stood there quietly, watching the battle ahead.
There was no movement in the palace, but the ferocious beasts on the mountain were already fighting fiercely. These beasts fought fiercely for the elixir, and the whole mountain was stained with blood.
Many ferocious beasts died here, and their huge bodies were scattered all over the mountains.
Tragic.
It was extremely tragic.
When many ferocious beasts found that they could not enter the palace and there was no hope of finding the spiritual medicine on the mountain, they began to slowly retreat. The ferocious beasts that remained on the mountain also lay around the spiritual medicine, guarding it while healing their wounds.
Suddenly.
A huge black rat appeared from the bottom of the mountain. The rat did not go to the top of the mountain, nor did it look for those elixirs. Instead, it went towards the corpses of the ferocious beasts that died in battle.
The moment the mouse appeared, Chu Ning's eyes were locked on the mouse's back, where a black shadow was sitting cross-legged.
Soul Realm Man.
This man sat on the back of a rat and came to the corpse of the ferocious beast. He kept making seals with his hands and no one knew what he was doing. But the strange thing was that the other ferocious beasts at the scene were indifferent to this, as if they didn't notice his existence.
