Chapter 238: Golden Grass
Also, regarding Qing'er and Xuanhuo, they probably can't enter this secret realm.
Xia Jing'er was delighted when she heard that the time for the Disguise Pill was approaching. However, she still felt uncomfortable with her female body.
Xiao Feng said, "I heard that the area in the south has the most natural treasures. Why don't we go there? Many cultivators know that a magical treasure is about to be born here, so they are all rushing here. There shouldn't be many people there."
No one had any objections, so they packed up and set off.
Everyone rushed all the way to their destination with their weapons.
At this time, Bai Rui wiped off the spell on the demon-subduing pestle, and Gu Yue felt that a layer of restraint in her sea of consciousness had dissipated. She breathed a sigh of relief. It felt so good not to be controlled by others!
After flying for half an hour, we arrived at the place Xiao Feng mentioned.
They landed and looked at the map again. There was a pond drawn on the map. Gu Yue looked at the map and felt that the pond was a bit conspicuous, so he suggested that everyone go over and take a look.
So everyone walked through half of the forest and arrived at the pond.
At this time, there was a faint golden light on the water surface. On the other side of the pool was a golden spiritual herb. The golden light on the pool surface should be emitted by this spiritual herb.
Gu Yue couldn't tell what kind of spiritual herb this was. She looked at Qiao Mai, and Qiao Mai also shook his head.
Bai Rui said, "Yue, this is a golden grass. It's extremely rare and is the main ingredient in refining longevity pills. It's almost mature in this state. The stronger the golden light, the more mature it is."
Gu Yue repeated Bai Rui's words and said, "Golden Yancao, the main ingredient of the Longevity Pill, is mature."
After hearing this, Qiao Mai stammered, "This, this, this... is... the Golden Yan Grass. Can a longevity pill really be refined? Isn't the longevity pill just a legend?"
When Nie Zhou heard about the longevity pills, he immediately said, "Let's go pick some."
Gu Yue watched the golden light grow stronger and stronger. She said, "Let's hurry up. We don't know if there are any guardian beasts."
Xiao Feng said, "I'll go over and check it out first. If there's anything, I'll lure it away and you guys can do it."
Xiao Feng flew out, tapped the surface of the pond with his toes, and quickly approached the golden grass.
At this time, she saw movement under the water. Just when Xiao Feng's hand was about to touch the magical herb, an ugly fish monster jumped out of the water.
The fish was about ten feet long, with a large head and a red body. It had wings on its back, a pair of eyes as big as two rice bowls, and a mouth full of exposed fangs.
It opened its mouth wide and bit towards Xiao Feng's hand with its sharp teeth. Xiao Feng suddenly retracted his hand, stepped on the strange fish's head, and rushed towards the shore. The strange fish chased it relentlessly. Seeing that Xiao Feng was about to reach the shore, the strange fish turned its head and glanced at Jin Yancao.
At this time, Nie Zhou had already reached out to pick the grass.
The strange fish leaped with all its might and let out a strange cry. Everything around it stopped, as if the pause button had been pressed and time had stopped.
Bai Rui in the space felt something. His movements were getting slower and slower. He shook his head hard, but still couldn't break free from the constraints of suspended time.
Only the strange fish was able to move, and it headed straight for Nie Zhou.
After a few breaths, time resumed.
Nie Zhou only felt a flash before his eyes, and the strange fish disappeared and came back in an instant, so fast that people could not see its trajectory. He had to retreat to save his hand.
He tapped the surface of the lake and flew back to the shore.
Yun Xiaosha was puzzled: "This strange fish can actually teleport. What grade of monster is it?"
Nie Zhou said, "It doesn't feel like teleportation. But I can't tell what it is."
Gu Yue looked around and saw that there was no one else around, so she let Bai Rui out.
Due to its promotion, it grew a little bigger. As soon as it came out of the space, it jumped for joy and walked around the lake.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw Bai Rui appear.
Wen Qing said: "Bai Rui has grown up!"
Xiao Feng curled her hair with one hand and said, "Even more majestic!"
Bai Rui raised his head proudly.
The others smiled slightly.
Bai Rui stood by the lake and looked at the strange fish. He saw that the fish was guarding the golden grass but did not pick it.
I don't know why, but it seems to be waiting for the grass to mature a little, but it doesn't seem like it.
It looked at the bottom of the lake, with anxiety in its eyes. Why hadn't the master given the order to kill these monks? What was the point of letting it guard this broken grass?
It wanted to stay with its master after completing its mission, but since its master hadn't given any orders, it had no choice but to stay here and deal with these monks.
It frequently looked at the bottom of the lake, hoping that there would be some commands or hints from there.
Gu Yue felt that this strange fish was a bit odd. It neither picked the spiritual herbs nor actively attacked them.
Just as he was thinking, he heard Bai Rui say, "Time pauses. To be more precise, it can stop time, while it can act detachedly."
Gu Yue conveyed Bai Rui's words.
Everyone looked surprised. This trick was really effective and could give them the upper hand without anyone noticing.
Gu Yue asked Bai Rui, "Can you break this move?"
Bai Rui said, "I'm not sure, but I can give it a try."
Gu Yue winked at everyone and flew towards the Jin Yancao first. The strange fish was guarding beside it at the moment, and a look of vigilance appeared in its eyes when it saw Gu Yue coming.
Gu Yue slapped out with one palm, and a strange fire spewed out. The strange fish spit out a stream of water, facing the strange fire, making a "sizzling" sound.
Gu Yue took advantage of the situation and stepped on the fish's head. The strange fish jumped with all its might and pushed Gu Yue into the air. The whole fish left the water, flapped its wings, and flew into the sky.
Gu Yue pinched the magic formula with his hands and used a thousand-pound weight. The strange fish that flew upwards was pressed down by Gu Yue and returned to the surface of the water.
It lost its fighting spirit and flapped its wings vigorously, pushing Gu Yue into the air. It raised its head and bit Gu Yue's foot. Fortunately, Gu Yue was on guard against it and jumped lightly on tiptoe to avoid its sharp teeth.
Gu Yue winked at her friends.
Nie Zhou quickly approached the Jin Yancao. Just as he stretched out his hand, the strange fish looked down and found Nie Zhou next to the Jin Yancao. It roared angrily.
The wind died down, the trees stopped moving, and Gu Yue remained motionless in the air. The cultivators on the shore seemed frozen in time as well.
Bai Rui's body stopped moving. His eyeballs moved and he struggled hard. A ray of spiritual light shot out from his two horns and shot straight at the strange fish. The strange fish cried out in pain, and everything around it started moving again.
Gu Yue found herself suspended in mid-air, and the strange fish was falling toward the lake. She summoned the [Green Light] to carry herself back to the shore.
Others saw that the strange fish under Gu Yue's feet disappeared and appeared on the surface of the lake.
I knew that the strange fish had used that trick again, but this time it lasted for a shorter time.
At this moment, Nie Zhou pulled out the Jin Yan grass, put it away, and jumped onto the shore.
The strange fish saw that its foolproof trick had failed. It turned to look at Bai Rui, knowing that it was Bai Rui's work.
It stopped on the lake and watched the spiritual herbs being picked. Its mission had failed, and it didn't know how to explain to its master.
