The old man from the Song family stared straight ahead with an eager look.
"No, that book is incomprehensible and cannot be studied thoroughly. This is Chen Tuan's unique skill." Zhong Yong shook his head.
Who is Chen Tuan? He is the peerless master in the field of inner alchemy after Zhongli Quan and Lü Dongbin, and he has carried forward the great way of golden elixir.
The old man of the Song family was shocked. Is Zhong Yong planning to take the golden elixir route in the field of traditional arts?
“Was that the five-colored golden elixir energy mentioned in Chen Tuan’s Golden Elixir Avenue?” The old man of the Song family said bitterly. This cowardly old fellow has been practicing hard for more than a hundred years. Is he really going to see the light?
"What are you thinking about? The Five-Colored Golden Elixir is just a legend. Not many people in ancient times could make it. Besides, what level are we at now? Don't even think about something as far away as the Golden Elixir."
Old Zhong sighed, then his expression turned serious and he said, "Xiao Song, you also sensed it just now, right? An extremely powerful extraordinary auspicious beast sent a telepathic message to sternly warn us to either leave or go deeper into the secret place and not stay in this area."
The ninety-year-old old man of the Song family looked grim upon hearing this. He did hear it.
"What's going on? That extraordinary auspicious beast can actually communicate with humans. How powerful is it? Why are extraordinary humanoid creatures not allowed to stay in the outside area?" Old Song had many doubts.
Zhong Yong looked quite serious and said, "Just now when I was running away, I saw two groups of young people confronting each other from a distance. Judging from their attire, they didn't look like people from Xinxing."
"There's someone deep in the secret place? Now he's coming out!" The old man of the Song family was frightened.
Zhong Yong said: "We have been warned, and now we cannot leave this planet, so we can only temporarily transition to a deeper place."
Then he added: "I have to go find my two descendants. I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen in this area. I'd better take them with me."
…
In another area, Lao Chen hid in a dense forest, sat on a crooked tree, and ate the last silver bamboo shoot.
Earlier, he had only pulled out a silver bamboo shoot, and was chased for hundreds of miles by two monsters with black circles under their eyes, which looked very much like national treasures. Even his back was scratched and bleeding.
In a rage, Old Chen threw away the "national treasure", stole the other three silver bamboo shoots, and ate them all.
The deep wounds on his body have now healed and are almost healed. The efficacy of the silver shoots is amazing!
"Now I'm satisfied!" He burped. After being chased for such a long distance, he finally got rid of his anger.
"When I return to our old land of Shu, I will feed more bamboo shoots to your distant relatives!" He felt a strange energy flowing through his body, which was of great benefit to him.
Suddenly, Old Chen's hair stood on end. He looked up abruptly and saw a white peacock with a hazy halo. It had landed on the tree trunk above at some point and was staring at him.
This is definitely a terrifyingly powerful supernatural being. Even Old Chen's heart is beating fast and he feels it is difficult to fight against him.
"Human, your strength has exceeded the upper limit. Please go deeper into the secret place." The spirit of the white peacock fluctuated violently, issuing a warning.
Old Chen was surprised. Before coming to the secret place, he checked a lot of information, but there was no mention of these. He had a hunch that something seemed to have happened.
…
Wang Xuan sneaked in and out of the foggy area. He then observed the eight extraordinary nests, ready to rush in to pick the miraculous herbs at any time.
For some extraordinary nests, he only stared at them for a while before giving up because he couldn't afford to offend them. For example, on a certain cliff, there lived a strange golden bird.
Once you mess with this flying monster, there is no way to escape.
“Could it be that it has a rare golden roc bloodline? Maybe its ancestors were humans, and it became a demon after entering the Land of the Dead and taking the path of the true body.”
Wang Xuan moved to the next extraordinary nest and studied it carefully.
He also checked the silkworm snake's cave. Both cubs were alive and the male snake had returned to live there!
"Forget it. Seeing that your family is harmonious, Patriarch Wang is magnanimous and cannot bear to destroy the happy atmosphere of your family."
Finally, Wang Xuan focused his attention on the nest of the brass mountain turtle, where there was a small tree that looked like it was made of brass, with a few yellowed fruits hanging on it.
It doesn't look like it's fully mature yet, but Wang Xuan feels that the efficacy won't be much different.
Of course, this is just one of the goals. There are two other extraordinary nests that are also ideal.
In one of the nests lived a silver bear. It was very round and Wang Xuan felt that it could not run fast.
However, considering that the mountain turtle could run on the trees and was extremely ferocious, he did not dare to be careless with the silver bear that was almost rounded into a ball.
For this reason, Wang Xuan observed for a long time and found that the Silver Bear was not very fast when hunting. It should be the slowest monster among the eight supernatural creatures.
"I'm sorry, Brother Silver Bear. Anyway, you don't have any cubs to feed right now, and I guess you're tired of eating that bunch of white extraordinary herbs. Just lend it to me for a while. Don't worry, I will never pull it out by the roots. I will leave the roots and you can continue to eat it after a while!"
Wang Xuan selected his target and prepared to take action.
Before that, he looked in the direction of the dead place, where there was still fog and the sunlight could not penetrate.
He did not forget what the ferryman said. The Land of Death might move away at any time. What if he succeeded in picking the herbs and ate them, but the Land of Death disappeared? Then he would be killed.
"After picking the miraculous medicine, you can't eat it directly. To be safe, enter the Land of the Dead first."
Wang Xuan had enough patience and finally waited until the Silver Bear went hunting. He estimated that if he just escaped to the foggy area, he would have plenty of time.
The ferryman said that after this separation, the two would never meet again in this life, but Wang Xuan thought that he could give him a surprise soon.
"See you later. I haven't seen enough of the lake and moonlight!" Wang Xuan's face was full of smiles.
