Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Earthly Immortal Spring
A breeze blew over the mountain, and a large area of green bamboo was lush and rustling in the wind. The bamboo sea was fresh and full of vitality.
A faint smell of blood floated in the forest. Wang Xuan sat there with his upper body naked, carefully checking his injuries with his spiritual realm.
There was a blood hole in his chest, and four terrible cuts appeared on the right lung lobe, which was torn apart as a whole. The flesh on his back was torn apart, and his ribs were vaguely visible.
He reflected silently. Since he embarked on the old art path, although there were thrilling moments, it had never been so tragic. He had not even had a direct contact, but he was almost shot and killed by someone across the sky.
Was he careless? No, he was very cautious and fled in advance.
In the final analysis, he was not as strong as others. Even the golden body technique he had always relied on could not stop the opponent's extraordinary talisman arrows. This was the first time he suffered such a huge loss.
Zhao Qinghan crushed the remaining spiritual herbs and applied them to Wang Xuan's external wounds. These wounds were very serious, but the more serious ones were the internal wounds, with his organs broken into several pieces.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have died.
"Don't think too much, heal the wound first." She carefully bandaged Wang Xuan.
Grandmaster Ma was groaning not far away, with blood holes on his wings and legs. He kept speaking in horse language in pain, probably cursing.
It completely remembered the person who shot him. When the groom feeds him to the extraordinary level, it will definitely go find that person and trample him into a meat sauce!
Zhao Qinghan walked over and applied the remaining spiritual herbs on its body.
"It was dangerous." Wang Xuan sighed. He survived the catastrophe. If it hadn't been for the golden body technique to block it, if it hadn't used Zhang Daoling's physical technique to erase most of the runes on the arrow feathers, he would have been shot and exploded!
He deeply understood the gap between himself and the extraordinary. Even if his physical body had already stood at the top of mortals, he still couldn't resist the power of that realm.
Perhaps, he was not the top of mortals?
"A group of black prison crows flew away in the distant forest!" Zhao Qinghan said, standing outside the bamboo forest, looking at the distant forest.
The leader of the crows was at the quasi-grandmaster level. This kind of gregarious raptor not only hunted prey but also ate carrion. When they saw a corpse, they would pounce on it.
"Some monsters also escaped from the mountains on the adjacent side." Zhao Qinghan observed meticulously. Usually, there was no big movement in those two areas.
Wang Xuan stood up, and when he saw some movement in another direction, his face changed slightly.
"Let's go!" He patted Grandmaster Ma and signaled it to get on the road.
"Did those three chase us?" Zhao Qinghan asked.
Once the fierce birds and beasts in the forest become agitated on a large scale, it is usually caused by the passage of extraordinary creatures.
"It's possible!" Wang Xuan nodded.
Grandmaster Ma endured the pain and swore in horse language that one day, Ma Chaofan would kick those people to death. It carried the two people and spread its wings to fly high into the sky.
Wang Xuan observed the area in the air and actually saw the man holding the big bow standing on a mountain peak, looking over here.
Soon, the other two men also appeared and stood with him.
Wang Xuan looked at them indifferently in the distance, and there was a flame of anger in his chest. These three people actually targeted him and chased him all the way down, still thinking about hunting him.
Is this because they are thinking about the strange fog on him, or simply feel that they missed and lost face, so they want to give him another arrow?
All three of them have reached the extraordinary realm, but returned to the outer area to seize the opportunity. According to the general situation Wang Xuan understands, this violates the rules.
Not only do we know whether there is any power that can correct and restrain them.
He had a murderous intent rising up in his heart. The three extraordinary strong men had repeatedly targeted him for hunting. He didn't need anyone to correct him. He was going to settle the score himself soon!
On the mountain peak, the three watched the flying horse go away.
"If you don't release the extraordinary aura, you will be attacked by many monsters as prey. But once you release the extraordinary aura, it will disturb the various beasts in the forest and flee, and the young man will be alerted."
"Xiong Kun, is it necessary to come back and kill him?" The companion asked, looking at the man with the bow.
"The last glance before he left made me feel a little uneasy when I think about it afterwards. I'm afraid he will become a person like my grandfather. You see, he does look a bit like me. He also subdued a strange beast."
The man with the bow had a fierce look in his eyes and black hair. His name was Xiong Kun, and he was from Heluo Star.
"Let's go back quickly. Although this area is under the jurisdiction of the black-horned beast, it's still dangerous if the white peacock knows that we are in the outer area once our whereabouts are leaked."
"Yes, if it knows that we hunt people who have not reached the extraordinary realm, something will happen."
The man holding the bow, Xiong Kun, said: "Nothing will happen in the territory of the black-horned beast. Let's go and pay it a visit."
He already knew that the metal plates in the outer area have not been completely concentrated in the hands of one person. He still has a chance!
A hundred years ago, his grandfather also participated in the competition in the secret land and obtained the strange fog left by the immortals. He changed his bones and reshaped his five internal organs. He rose rapidly in Heluo Star and is now a well-known figure.
Therefore, Xiong Kun knew the location of the inner treasure and understood the heaven-defying effect of the strange fog. He wanted to intercept it. Even if he could only refine the opponent's blood marrow to obtain the medicinal properties, he dared to swallow it directly.
His grandfather is a living example. If you get the strange fog, you must soar into the sky!
Back then, his grandfather had rescued a monster, the Black Horned Beast, outside the Secret Land.
The man and the beast had traveled together for a long time. Now, a hundred years have passed, and the Black Horned Beast has long been a powerful monster in the extraordinary realm, ruling an area.
Over the years, Xiong Kun's grandfather has returned to the Secret Land many times, and there is no estrangement between him and the monster.
This time, Xiong Kun violated the rules and came to the outer area of the Secret Land, relying on the Black Horned Beast, which turned a blind eye and ignored him.
"At first, I didn't feel anything, but now I suddenly feel uneasy. Isn't he going to copy my grandfather's path?" Xiong Kun said, his black hair was scattered like a waterfall, his eyes were cold, and he had a wild temperament.
...
At a far enough distance, Grandmaster Ma stopped, his wings dripping with blood, his horse legs were red, and his wounds were broken. He was a little weak.
Wang Xuan sat on the bluestone, mobilizing the mysterious factor to repair the shattered right lung. He was confident that he could cure it, but it would take at least five days.
The lungs were torn apart, but they could not only grow back, but also recover in about five or six days. If this were spread out, it would definitely shock people.
The main reason was that Wang Xuan had just come out of the inner treasure and obtained a large amount of mysterious substances from there. Otherwise, he would have to endure it slowly.
Even so, he was not satisfied and wanted to recover at a faster speed, because this was a secret place, there were changes every day, and there could be danger at any time.
In this state, it was easy for him to get into trouble.
In addition, the situation of Grandmaster Ma was not optimistic either. He was a little weak. If he encountered a strong enemy, he might not be able to fly so fast.
"Let's go find the Earth Immortal Spring!"
Wang Xuan decided to go to the deeper part of the secret place, baptize his body with the Earth Immortal Spring, and quickly recover his body. Otherwise, if he went to the secret road of the dead land in this state, it would be tantamount to suicide.
"Isn't it too radical? Monsters are rampant there." Zhao Qinghan frowned.
"It's okay. Even the old Zhong, who is over a hundred years old, dared to risk his life. In the end, he was several decades younger and ran out alive. We are better than an old man in his twilight years, right?"
Goddess Zhao was speechless. Old Zhong was in his twilight years. He had clearly practiced hard for more than a hundred years. He might be the best in the field of old arts!
"Grandmaster Ma, do you want to eat the demon fruit? Do you want to recover your body immediately? Do you want to become Ma Chaofan? Let's go and drink the Earth Fairy Spring!"
Grandmaster Ma jumped up and became lively again. His mouth was grinning, and he was a little crooked. He was very excited. The groom was finally going to feed him again!
Zhao Qinghan was a little cautious at first, but how could he not be tempted? Drinking the Earth Fairy Spring can extend his life by fifty years. For someone who embarked on the path of old arts for beauty, this temptation is boundless.
Therefore, the calm Goddess Zhao no longer dissuaded him, but was looking forward to it.
"Is that the Earthly Immortal Spring?" Wang Xuan and his companions came and looked at the strange land from a mountaintop. They could feel the amazing spiritual substances spreading from a distance.
He was speechless because the Earthly Immortal Spring was not gushing. Who knew it was so "weak" and dripping like raindrops from the eaves, falling from the cracks of the cliffs.
There was a puddle on the ground, with a little crystal liquid accumulated, but only two or three liters to the edge.
Don't even think about taking a bath in the Earthly Immortal Spring. With so little water, you can probably only wash your face or soak your feet.
The Earthly Immortal Spring was crystal clear, with bursts of mist rising up, and the atmosphere was extraordinary, but the amount was really too little.
"I also wanted to invite you to bathe in the Earthly Immortal Spring, but it was just such a small puddle..." Wang Xuan regretted that this was different from what he imagined.
Zhao Qinghan rolled his eyes at him upon hearing this.
Grandmaster Ma was also dumbfounded. It was just a little water, and it was all gone after it licked it with its tongue. How could anyone drink it!
Soon, they became alert. There were some monsters lurking in the area under the cliff. At this moment, a black male lion with a long mane walked over and swallowed the Earth Fairy Spring in one gulp.
It was more than ten meters long and exuded extraordinary energy. It was a very scary monster at first glance and was definitely not easy to mess with.
That little water was probably not enough to moisten its throat.
"I guess four silkworm snakes together can't beat it!" Wang Xuan sighed.
On the cliff, in the gap, water kept falling, and after a while, the puddle was filled up again, weighing two or three kilograms.
This time, the black lion did not appear, but a snow-white scorpion came. Under the sunlight, it looked like it was carved from white jade, glittering and brilliant, with an artistic beauty, but absolutely deadly and poisonous.
It could be as big as a millstone, drank up the Earth Fairy Spring, and slowly left.
Then, when the puddle was filled with brilliant liquid again, a monster with flames all over its body came. It looked like an elephant, but with sharp fangs, chewing the flesh and blood of some monster in its mouth, and its body was red, surrounded by flames, and it looked difficult to mess with.
…
Wang Xuan and Zhao Qinghan saw that these monsters took turns to drink the Earth Fairy Spring, and there was no conflict between them, as if they had their own "meal times".
If they wanted to intervene, it would be difficult, because the Earth Fairy Spring was surrounded by extraordinary monsters, and they were all powerful species. Looking at their appearance, you could tell that none of them were easy to mess with.
Grandmaster Ma became very low-key. Seeing those monsters queuing up to drink the Earth Fairy Spring, he didn't dare to curse, but just looked at Wang Xuan, which meant that he was counting on the horseman!
After observing for a long time, Wang Xuan was very thankful that there were no flying monsters here.
But Zhao Qinghan felt that the chances were slim. It was very dangerous here. There were too many extraordinary monsters nearby.
"It is said that there may be earth immortal caves in this area, so there are many monsters entrenched there, waiting for the sudden emergence of a heavenly immortal palace one day." Zhao Qinghan informed some of the situation.
Some extraordinary monsters can communicate with people through spirits. Such news came out a long time ago.
In addition, the water output of the earth immortal spring has been decreasing in recent years, so the monsters are getting more and more nervous here.
Wang Xuan sighed: "Old Zhong's body is half buried in the soil, but he can still have a last burst of light, fight for his life in the monster group, drink a lot, and then escape alive."
He believed that Old Zhong must have other special means to lead the monsters away, otherwise it would be difficult to succeed.
"You can arrange him, but Old Zhong is in the secret place, and you may deal with him soon." Zhao Qinghan reminded him that Old Zhong is very powerful, but also has a narrow mind.
Wang Xuan nodded, indicating that he knew and would definitely not take the initiative to provoke Lao Zhong. However, when he becomes extraordinary, if he goes to the depths of the secret place to compete with Lao Zhong, who will be scared?
"So many monsters went to lick that small puddle, did Lao Zhong also rush over and suck it clean in one gulp?" Wang Xuan imagined those scenes.
He had a plan, staring at the crack on the cliff, and said: "Look, that crack is on a bulge. I seriously suspect that there are hundreds or thousands of kilograms of earth fairy spring in that area. If we quickly open a big hole there, fill the container and run away, I think the harvest will be great!"
Zhao Qinghan shook his head and said: "Someone tried it a long time ago. The cliff is surprisingly solid and can't be split at all. It is suspected to be the original stone of sun gold."
Wang Xuan was dazed, and then shook his head and said: "It's not real sun gold. At most, it's just mixed with some. I don't think it's a big problem."
He thought that he could cut through the mountain wall. He had used a dagger to cut Zhong Qing's steel plate and easily cut off a spike, so he was confident.
In the end, Wang Xuan went to find an extra-large wild gourd. After digging it up, he felt that it could hold at least fifty or sixty kilograms of earth fairy spring.
However, the wild gourd is not the most important container, but his blessed land fragments, with an internal space of about two cubic meters.
They observed for a long time, and chose a safe time node when the puddle below was drunk up and no monsters appeared. The two men and the horse moved at high speed.
Grandmaster Ma was responsible for carrying them over, and they came to the cliff at lightning speed. Zhao Qinghan was responsible for holding the wild gourd that had just been cut open, and Wang Xuan suddenly swung the dagger.
Chi!
The mountain wall was cut open, and a fragrant slurry suddenly surged out. Zhao Qinghan hurriedly used the gourd to catch it. For her, this was a beauty liquid!
Wang Xuan felt that the opening was not big enough, so he swung the dagger vigorously, dug a hole here, and directly reached his hand in, using the blessed land fragments to fill the earth fairy spring.
Soon, he felt that the blessed land fragments were full.
"Why is there no water?" Zhao Qinghan wondered.
When Wang Xuan withdrew his hand, the earth fairy spring surged and almost filled the wild gourd.
"Go!" Wang Xuan shouted. The noise here was quite loud, and it probably alarmed the monsters nearby.
"Huh?!" He saw that there was not much water inside the stone wall, and there was something shiny inside, so he took it out!
