Blackwater.
This is an extremely vast area, named after the black swamp that dominates its environment.
There are many dangerous places and monsters everywhere, but there are many precious treasures that are hard to see outside. It and the Duanmeng Mountains, located in the south and north, sandwich the Yan Kingdom in between, and is also an important place for cultivators in the northern part of the Yan Kingdom to obtain resources for cultivation.
The Qingyang Sect was able to obtain a large amount of resources and gradually grow stronger because it was adjacent to this place.
Chen Lin had wanted to come here and take a look for a long time, but he had never dared to act.
I didn't expect it to happen in this way this time. It's really unpredictable.
Looking at the four Dharma protectors around him, he felt a little flattered. The scene of being protected by four foundation-building monks was something he had not dared to imagine even in his dreams.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, according to the markings on the map, the place ahead is where the Burning Lotus True Fire Evil is produced. This place is close to the State of Chu. Fellow Daoist, try not to cause trouble. Our Yan State cultivators are not on good terms with the Chu State cultivators."
The speaker was a middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows named Su Chenyu. He was the deputy leader of Qingyang Sect and also one of the guardians.
Previously, Luo Qinglan asked Chen Lin if there was any way to quickly improve the ability to restrain evil spirits, and he told him about condensing evil spirits, so this trip took place.
Although it was Luo Qinglan who sent these four people to protect him, Chen Lin did not dare to be arrogant and quickly agreed: "Don't worry, senior, I understand."
Su Chenyu nodded with satisfaction.
He knew the importance of this trip. It was not easy to find someone who could be useful for the sect leader's recovery, and there must not be any mistakes.
If Luo Qinglan cannot recover, then all those who have offended the Lieyang Sect will die at the hands of that old man Huang Yu.
Otherwise, they would have to give up the excellent training environment and flee to the ends of the earth.
And it is not easy to escape from the pursuit of a Jindan cultivator.
Su Chenyu made a gesture, and one of the black-faced foundation-building cultivators accelerated forward to check the situation.
After finding no danger, he landed on the ground with Chen Lin and continued moving forward.
Soon, Chen Lin felt the temperature in the air begin to rise. It became hotter and hotter as he walked, and a familiar energy was mixed in the air.
This is the breath of the Burning Lotus True Fire Evil.
Chen Lin immediately raised his vigilance to the highest level. There were many monsters in the strange place. Although he was protected by experts, he was still afraid of accidents.
After they crossed a muddy canyon, a strange landscape appeared before their eyes.
The surroundings were all black water swamps, except for a dry area in the middle. There were several holes in the middle, and flames were constantly rising.
The hot breath came in waves.
The strange thing is that these flames are all in the shape of lotus flowers, fluctuating with a wonderful rhythm.
"That's it. Let's go check the environment first. Although the sect leader said that he had cleared all the monsters around when he came here last time, there will inevitably be new ones coming. We still have to be careful."
After Su Chenyu finished speaking, the other three flew to different places, while he continued to stay by Chen Lin's side.
Chen Lin glanced at the other person secretly.
The other party stayed with him all the way. He encountered danger several times and was always solved by the other three people. It seemed like they were protecting him closely, but in fact they were probably monitoring him, fearing that he would run away secretly.
From this, it can be seen that this person must be Luo Qinglan's confidant.
"Senior, this Burning Lotus True Fire is a very yang and hot substance. How come only a small area nearby is dry, while the rest of the swampland is not only not burned dry, but there is not even any moisture?"
While trying to get close to him, Chen Lin asked the questions in his mind. This kind of landform is indeed strange.
Su Chenyu said calmly, "A solitary yang cannot grow, and a solitary yin cannot be born. A place that can produce evil spirits of the level of the Burning Lotus True Fire Evil must have something extremely yin associated with it, either evil spirits of yin attributes, or natural treasures of yin attributes. However, our purpose of this trip is just to help you refine enough evil spirits, so we shouldn't create any more complications."
Chen Lin suddenly realized.
It seems that his comprehensive knowledge is still lacking. If he can help Luo Qinglan get rid of his inner demons this time, he should suggest reading some Qingyang Sect's classics.
The two chatted casually. Su Chenyu's profound knowledge benefited Chen Lin a lot.
Suddenly, bursts of roars came from afar, attracting their attention.
But the sound soon disappeared again.
After a while, the two foundation-building monks who went to explore other directions had returned, but the other one had not yet returned.
"What's going on? You two go and take a look!"
Su Chenyu frowned slightly and gave the order.
Just as the other two foundation-building monks were about to set off, they saw a figure flying over. It was the black-faced foundation-building monk who was checking in the direction where the sound came from.
Behind him, there was a flying boat, and they arrived in front of him in a flash.
"Senior Brother Su is from the Xuanyin Sect!"
When the escaping light fell, the black-faced foundation-building cultivator immediately spoke out to report, his expression somewhat ugly.
Su Chenyu's face changed when he heard this, and he asked coldly: "Did they attack you?"
The black-faced foundation-building cultivator said hurriedly, “No, I just encountered a demon beast. After I killed it, I happened to find a spiritual herb. I just finished picking it when I ran into them. We confronted each other for a while and then left.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the flying boat behind him came close.
Three people came down from above. One of them, a pale-faced man, waved his hand, and the flying boat quickly shrank to the size of a palm and was put into the storage bag.
This man looked to be about thirty years old, wearing a green robe and looking sickly. He had a string of small skulls hanging on his chest, emitting a spooky aura.
"Nanmen Wuji!"
Seeing this person, Su Chenyu immediately exclaimed.
"Who am I? It turns out to be Brother Su from the Qingyang Sect. I hope you are doing well!"
The pale man glanced at Su Chenyu and spoke calmly.
He immediately changed the subject and said, "But we have occupied this area, Fellow Daoist Su, please leave immediately!"
Su Chenyu's face darkened and he said, "It seems that we arrived first. I think Fellow Daoist Nanmen should leave."
Nanmen Wuji showed a surprised look, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said: "Oh, by the way, your Luo Zongzhu has recently broken through the Jindan stage. No wonder Fellow Daoist Su is so confident. However, confidence is not given by others, but depends on whether you have the ability."
After he finished speaking, a white bone fan appeared in Nanmen Wuji's hand, which he shook open. Then his aura suddenly rose, and his whole body was filled with yin energy!
Upon seeing this, the three black-faced foundation-building cultivators immediately took out their magic weapons to prepare to meet the enemy, while Chen Lin wisely retreated far behind.
The other side.
In addition to Nanmen Wuji, there was also a skinny old man who took out a seven-section whip. The sections of the whip were huge, each with many small holes on it, and it made a humming sound that was unsettling.
The other one was a tall woman with a beautiful appearance, but also gave people a cold aura. She, like Chen Lin, was in the Qi training stage and also retreated far behind.
The war is about to break out.
However, Chen Lin discovered that although his side had four foundation-building people, they were obviously lacking in confidence, while the other side had only two people, but they acted like the strong bullying the weak and did not take Su Chenyu and the others seriously at all.
His heart began to beat fast.
It seems that this Nanmen Wuji is not an ordinary person. He is a well-known person. However, he does not know him and does not know whether he is a cultivator from Yan Country.
Looking around, Chen Lin first checked the surrounding environment. He could not participate in a battle of this level at all. All he could do was not to drag them down when escaping.
But at this moment, Su Chenyu, who had always had a gloomy face, suddenly turned his wrist and took out something!
