On the Chantian Peak, the yin energy turned into black crows that covered the sky and the sun. They circled and cried, and continuously attacked the two people on the bone stairs.
Jiang Yuebai used his two divine thoughts to control the Zheliu Scimitar and the Taihe Umbrella respectively, and fought a bloody battle with the ghost crows in the sky.
Shen Mingjing turned his back to Jiang Yuebai, and his black and blue sword split into nine sword lights. With a pale face, he killed the rolling tide of ghosts behind him.
Under their feet was the corpse of a Nascent Soul cultivator who had died not long ago. There were large holes in his dantian and between his eyebrows, and his Nascent Soul and soul had been eaten. It was a horrible sight.
"Shen Mingjing, go on!"
Amid the howling cold wind, Jiang Yuebai found the three fairy palace tokens on the corpse and threw two of them directly to Shen Mingjing.
With two more tokens, the suppression from the water law of the secret realm on Shen Mingjing suddenly lightened. The light on the sword surged, and the sword swept out with a powerful momentum, clearing the ghost tide behind him in one fell swoop.
Jiang Yuebai retracted his willow-breaking scimitar, his aura rising steadily, and the Phoenix Fire ignited on the Taihe Umbrella above his head, and the raging flames turned into a burning cloud.
The flock of ghost crows screamed as they were burned to ashes and blown away by the wind.
The two of them lost no time and continued to climb upwards.
The groups of ghosts and individual zombies on the Chantian Peak were not difficult to deal with, but their numbers were too large, and they kept pouring out of the mountain, so even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not hold on for too long.
Coupled with the suppression of the secret realm's laws, they seemed to be sinking to the bottom of the sea, with every part of their bodies under the heavy pressure of water.
"We're almost there, just hold on a little longer!"
Jiang Yuebai sped up.
Shen Mingjing smiled bitterly and gritted his teeth to chase after him.
The top of the mountain was in sight, and amidst the turbulent gray-black clouds of gloomy energy, there was a patch of green mountains and clear waters with light and shadows flickering constantly, just like the entrance to a fairy palace.
Just as they were about to reach their destination, the rocks on the mountain wall collapsed, and a huge arm with only bloody muscles but no skin rushed out, waving its millstone-like palm straight towards the two of them.
At the same time, the bone stairs under their feet began to swing up and down in waves, making it difficult for them to stand steadily. They were thrown into the air and faced the giant palm.
Jiang Yuebai's eyes flashed, and he directly used the power of space to activate the Mi Dust Seal in his hand.
A spatial wave spread out from Jiang Yuebai's palm, causing ripples in the air and enveloping Jiang Yuebai and Shen Mingjing behind him.
boom!
The giant palm slammed hard on the mountain wall, smoke and dust filled the sky, and rocks shattered and fell.
Screams came from the dark clouds below, as if there were people climbing the peak and were affected.
Jiang Yuebai and Shen Mingjing fell on the top of the mountain together and almost rolled down the cliff on the other side. Fortunately, they grabbed the protruding rocks next to them in time.
Shen Mingjing opened his eyes wide with lingering fear. Jiang Yuebai twitched the corner of his mouth. He failed to control the distance well when using the Mi Chen Seal for the first time and almost threw them both directly down from the other side of the mountain top.
However, compared to the space restriction, the Mi Dust Seal is much more labor-saving. The power of two space ripples she usually creates is enough for the Mi Dust Seal to be used three times, but she cannot bring too many people.
Jiang Yuebai stood up, but his feet suddenly went soft and his body fell over. The originally hard rock ground suddenly began to ooze out smelly blood and turned into something dark red and fat-like.
The whole mountain shook violently, like an angry fat man whose fat body was shaking from anger.
"This is Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma, an extremely yin substance. Let's go!"
Shen Mingjing pulled his feet out of the blood jade meat ganoderma with force and rushed towards the teleportation portal in the distance.
When Jiang Yuebai saw this scene, he suddenly remembered the Tai Sui he had encountered before. It was also this kind of smelly, soft and oily thing. Especially its property of bringing bad luck if touched, it was really scary.
However, the Blood Jade Ganoderma does not seem to bring bad luck to anyone. Jiang Yuebai became curious and swung out two willow-breaking scimitars to cut off a protruding piece of Ganoderma next to it.
When the willow-breaking scimitar touched the liquid in the meat ganoderma, it immediately began to turn black and rot, and was scrapped on the spot.
Jiang Yuebai didn't have time to feel sorry for it. He used his spiritual sense to roll up the large piece of blood jade meat ganoderma and put it into his storage bag, preparing to take it back for research.
She delayed a moment longer than Shen Mingjing, but rushed to the portal at the same time as him and stepped in together.
As soon as Jiang Yuebai and Shen Mingjing landed on the ground, they heard the roar of magic. The blood-red light turned into terrifying blood shadows of skeletons, which attacked them from all directions.
Jiang Yuebai dodged instinctively, but forgot about Shen Mingjing standing beside him.
Shen Mingjing was not as fast as Jiang Yuebai. He had almost no time to react. A bright yellow flame shot out from his chest and condensed into countless overlapping scales.
The bloody skeleton hit it and was immediately burned to ashes by the bright yellow flames. The powerful force on the skeleton was also dispersed by the light and shadow of the scales, and did not hurt Shen Mingjing, who was frowning behind him.
Scales
Jiang Yuebai watched calmly. Any scale that could achieve this effect must be either dragon scale or... Qilin
There were two people fighting fiercely on the river in the distance, one was a female cultivator from the evil path, and the other was a male cultivator from the righteous path. They were injured by mistake in that move just now.
Shen Mingjing was still frightened, but his expression was calm. He had no intention of explaining anything to Jiang Yuebai. He just raised his hand and took back the scales that were transformed from the bright yellow flames.
Jiang Yuebai temporarily suppressed all his doubts. The two men on the river noticed that there were two more of them on the shore and became a little afraid.
The female demon cultivator was very cautious. After launching a full-strength attack, she fled away without getting entangled.
Jiang Yuebai did not recognize the remaining righteous male cultivator, but that person did not show any intention of coming over to say hello. He rolled up a special fish from the river and quickly left in another direction.
Jiang Yuebai looked around and saw at a glance the majestic and magnificent buildings looming in the vast clouds in the eastern sky.
"Is that the Kunxu Temple?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Shen Mingjing recovered a little, walked over and said, "There is a saying among the people, 'If you look at the mountain, you will die.' That fairy palace looks close, but it is harder to reach than ascending to the sky. Back then, Xiong Yanhong of the Xiong family also narrowly escaped death before he accidentally stepped into the outer perimeter of Kunxu Palace."
Jiang Yuebai nodded slightly, which means that the outer area of Kunxu Palace is the so-called fourth level of the entire secret realm.
Shen Mingjing distinguished the surrounding mountains and rivers, "We have reached the upper reaches of the river, which means we have entered the second level. Now we just need to enter the mountain stream below the temple, which will lead us to the third level of the secret realm."
Jiang Yuebai was about to speak when a divine thought suddenly came from the Dream Demon Thorn Head in the golden cicada pendant on his waist, which made Jiang Yuebai happy.
The thorny head sensed the location of Anan's nightmare, which was right behind them, sixty miles downstream.
"We have entered the secret realm for a long time. Today is the third day, and there are still four days left. I want to go downstream to find someone. Will you come with me, or will you tell me how to enter the Kunxu Palace now, and then we can go our separate ways?"
Shen Mingjing raised his hand and pinched his brows, then said after a moment of silence, "I believe in Daoist Wangshu's character. If Daoist Wangshu doesn't mind, I am willing to continue traveling with you."
Jiang Yuebai nodded and did not refuse. After finding Anan, there were two of them against him alone. If anything happened, the chances of winning would be greater and there was nothing to be afraid of.
If he could really bring them into the Kunxu Palace, it would be a good deal.
"Let's go."
The two of them rushed downstream along the river bank. Jiang Yuebai thought of the blood jade meat ganoderma that she had just collected. She had read a lot of books, but she had never heard of this thing.
"What is the Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma?" Jiang Yuebai asked Shen Mingjing.
Shen Mingjing glanced at Jiang Yuebai and said, "The Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma is the same as Tai Sui. It is a thing that combines the evil of heaven and earth. It is a different species of the Immortal Ganoderma. It is extremely rare. Among them, the Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma mostly grows in extremely yin places or in the Demon Realm."
"This is the first time I've seen the Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma in the Nine Star Alliance. Although this thing is extremely yin, it is a great tonic for ghost cultivators and ghosts. It can quickly improve their ghost cultivation. However, if you eat too much, you will easily lose your mind and have difficulty controlling your murderous thoughts. You must use a method to calm your mind and clear your spirit."
"Also, this thing can be used as the main medicine, and several auxiliary medicines can be added to neutralize the medicinal properties, and refined into blood jade pills, which can be used as pills to quickly improve the cultivation of monsters. The effect is slower than that of ghost cultivators taking it directly, but it is faster than the monsters practicing on their own, or taking common pills on the market."
"Normally, it takes about twenty years for a monster of medium aptitude to go from Qi training to foundation building. The Blood Jade Pill can shorten that time by more than half. Most importantly, the effect of this thing will not weaken as you take more. On the contrary, the more you take it, the more ferocious the monster will become."
When Jiang Yuebai heard this, his heart ached immediately. He had cut too little just now. He should have collected all the blood jade and meat ganoderma on that hill!
oops!
Isn’t it just a way to purify the mind and calm the spirit
The second song of the "Qinglian Music Score" that she had previously performed at Qingyu Bamboo Flute Middle School was mainly about Qingxin!
She has so many ghosts now. With the Blood Jade and Meat Ganoderma, can't she cultivate them quickly
oops!
Shen Mingjing couldn't help laughing when he saw Jiang Yuebai gritting his teeth and looking regretful. He reached into his sleeve and took out a jade slip.
"I was in the dark side of the secret realm before. Daoist Wangshu protected me all the way. I will always remember that. I will always repay my enemies and my kindness. Here is the method of cultivating the Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma, as well as the methods of using the Blood Jade Pill and several other Blood Jade Meat Ganoderma. Just consider it as a token of my gratitude."
Jiang Yuebai's eyes, which had just been filled with regret, suddenly emitted a sharp gleam of light and he grabbed the jade slip.
"How can you be so polite? It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. You are too polite."
Jiang Yuebai's insincere expression made Shen Mingjing laugh out loud. If it weren't for the racial conflict, Shen Mingjing would have been willing to make friends with Jiang Yuebai.
She is much more interesting than those old guys from the demon clan!
There is only one update today. There are too many things to do in the three-dimensional world, and I am not in good shape. I will try to finish the chores today and make some adjustments. I will update more tomorrow. Please forgive me~
