"Thank you Daoyou Long for your kindness. It's just that after all, you and I are just living our lives, so it's better to go our separate ways." Yuan Ming shook his head and declined politely.

Although these two people are not bad guys, he has no habit of acting with strangers.

"It's not like you and I are strangers. I've heard of Brother Yuan Ming's name a long time ago." Long Chong didn't take it seriously and said with a grin.

"Yuan Ming? Who is this person?" Yuan Ming was stunned, but there was no sign of anything strange on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan's temperament is exactly what Brother Tianming said, watertight and as calm as a mountain." Long Chong and Qiong Yun looked at each other and smiled.

Yuan Ming didn't expect to hear Liu Tianming's name, and his face remained calm.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, you don't need to be so vigilant. Qiongyun and I have received great kindness from Brother Tianming many years ago. We received a message from him more than a year ago, mentioning that Friend Daoist Yuan came to the East China Sea and asked me to take care of him. Unfortunately, we never had the opportunity to meet. Now, in When we meet at the Fairy Fruit Festival, Long will naturally show his friendship as a landlord." Long Chong said with a smile.

Yuan Ming suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Long Chong came over to get acquainted with him in front of the Vacuum Palace.

But how did these two people recognize him? The magical power of the Blood and Bone Mask is absolutely foolproof. Even those Nascent Soul Stage monks didn't see through it. How could Long Chong see through his identity?

"Fellow Daoist Yuan's magical power of transformation is so great that Long can't see through it yet. It's just that you are wearing the Blood Dragon Jade Pendant that I gave to Brother Tianming. This object is from the same origin as Long's natal magic weapon, so I can naturally sense it." Long Chong seemed to have guessed Yuan Ming's doubts and pointed at the storage ring on his hand, with a little blood shining on his fingertips.

Yuan Ming was startled and his consciousness disappeared into the storage ring.

The jade pendant Liu Tianming gave him lay there quietly, with a faint glow of blood glowing at this moment.

"It seems I was too careless." Yuan Ming thought to himself.

When Liu Tianming gave him this jade pendant, he didn't look at it much and put it away without thinking that there was something mysterious about it.

"To make Fellow Daoist Long laugh, Yuan caused some trouble, so he had to change his appearance. Since we are our own people, it is fate to meet here, so let's act together." Yuan Ming nodded.

After his identity was recognized, there was no point in deliberately keeping a distance. Long Chong and the two had no ill intentions towards him, and it was not a bad thing to be together.

"Okay, with the addition of Fellow Daoist Yuan, we will be even more powerful this time, and we may not be able to win the first place." Long Chong was overjoyed.

Yuan Ming shook his head: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Fellow Daoist Dragon. The competition will be based on the number of treasures obtained. I'm not good at finding things. There are so many floating continents here. Even if there is one more for me, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to find them."

"Haha, when it comes to this, both of us are only half-matched, but Qiong Yun has other means. We just need to protect her." Long Chong said with a laugh.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming glanced at Qiong Yun curiously and saw her smile slightly. Suddenly she raised her hand, and a black wooden compass flew out of the storage ring and floated in front of the three of them.

"This is a magic weapon specially given by my master for the competition. It can point out the location of the treasure that contains the most spiritual power within a hundred miles. We only need to follow its guidance and we will naturally find the treasure." Qiongyun explained proudly.

After saying that, she immediately cast a spell to activate the compass, and a light blue light erupted from the center of the compass, manifesting a round spoon in mid-air.

The shadow turned around and soon pointed far to the southeast.

The three people moved forward according to the guidance, and soon came to the edge of the initial continent. In the void in the southeast, they saw a continent slightly lower than the continent they were on quietly floating in the sky. The area seemed to be much larger. The size is hard to predict, and the flowers and plants on it are all purple in color. Looking from a distance, it is a rather beautiful scenery.

The compass in Qiong Yun's hand continued to point to the southeast of the Purple Grass Continent. The three of them looked at each other, then aimed at that continent and flew over it with the Escape Light.

But when they had just left the initial continent, there was a sudden roar in their ears, and a huge suction force came out from the void under their feet, making the three of them fall uncontrollably as if they were in a deep sea spiral.

The expressions of the three of them changed greatly. Long Chong suddenly roared, and a layer of blue mana emerged around his body, condensing into a crystal water film on the body surface, resisting the suction force.

Qiong Yun threw out a flying sword magic weapon and stepped on it under her feet. The purple thunder light on the flying sword flashed away, and she immediately held her body up and ran diagonally upwards, using lift to resist the suction force and stabilize her body. shape.

Yuan Ming's situation was much worse. His cultivation was only at the early stage of pill formation, far inferior to Long Chong and Qiong Yun. He could not resist the suction force and fell downwards.

"Damn it!" He cursed secretly and hurriedly imitated Qiong Yun's actions. A flash of lightning flashed under his body, and the thunder hammer appeared out of thin air.

Yuan Ming stood on the Thunder God Hammer with both feet and poured his magic power into it.

The Thunder Hammer shot out several rays of silver lightning, and a powerful force exploded, barely resisting the suction of the bottomless abyss.

"Are you okay?" Long Chong shouted towards this side.

"I can still hold on." Yuan Ming flew towards the Purple Grass Continent with all his strength against the suction force below.

Long Chong and Qiong Yun also moved forward with all their strength, but the suction force below was so amazing that the escape speed of the three of them was not even one-tenth of their usual speed.

Not only that, the further they moved forward, the stronger the suction force of the abyss below became. Long Chong and Qiong Yun soon showed expressions of exertion, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Yuan Ming's forehead.

Fortunately, as they gradually approached the Purple Grass Continent, the suction force gradually weakened and disappeared suddenly when they set foot on the land again.

"Huh, we're finally here. This secret realm is really weird. If the distance between the two continents were further apart, we might not be able to cross it." Long Chong said with some luck.

"It seems that the secret realm restricts us from moving between two nearby continents." Qiong Yun also sighed.

Yuan Ming crossed the most difficult path, wiped his forehead, and secretly felt worried.

The distance between the two continents is not very far, so he can still survive it. If the distance is further, it will be difficult to say.

Fortunately, he has the Jinkui Beast Control Technique, which can increase his mana level. If it doesn't work, he can only expose this secret technique.

After thinking about this, Yuan Ming calmed down and looked around, his eyes slightly condensed: "These purple flowers and plants are quite strange. I'm afraid they contain highly toxic substances. Please be careful."

Hearing this, Long Chong and the other two also looked at the flowers and plants around them.

The purple flowers and plants on the mainland seem gorgeous when you look at them from a distance, but when you get really close, you will find the evil hidden in them.

The leaves of the purple grass cover the entire continent like a blanket. Whether it is a blade of grass or a flower, there are small sharp teeth on the edges. It looks like a huge mouth, waiting for prey to come.

Seeing this, Long Chong casually took out a piece of bright red meat of unknown type and threw it on a flower.

The leaves and flowers of purple flowers suddenly came to life, and they all swooped over and bit into the raw meat.

There were dozens of bites in the raw meat, and a rotten smell wafted out.

Long Chong cast a spell to pick up the raw meat, only to see that most of the raw meat had been corroded by toxins, and in the pile of black and stinky rotten meat, there were seven or eight purple sharp teeth embedded in it, as if they were growing in the rotten meat. generally.

"It seems that these poisonous weeds and poisonous flowers have developed spiritual intelligence. Not only will they actively attack prey, they will also release their poisonous teeth and invade the prey's body." Long Chong analyzed.

"This piece of raw meat comes from the black rock lizard, a peak-level second-level demon beast that you killed not long ago, right? This snake contains highly poisonous substances, and its flesh and blood is naturally resistant to poison, but it was corroded into this state so quickly. , it seems that the purple poisonous flowers are quite toxic, so it’s better not to touch them.” Qiong Yun said.

Yuan Ming nodded silently and asked in the sea of ​​consciousness: "Xiying, can you identify the types of these poisonous weeds?"

"I have never seen this type of poisonous weed, but since it is so poisonous, you can try to collect some. When we leave the secret realm, you can also show it to Yan Sijing and the others. They are good at refining medicine and may be able to research something. "Xi Ying replied.

Yuan Ming had this intention, waved his hand and sent out a cyan light palm, uprooting all the nearby dark purple poisonous weeds. After thinking about it, he sent a poisonous weed into the spirit beast bag.

"Huazhi, swallow these poisonous weeds and see what's special about them." Yuan Ming said.

Huazhi quickly responded: "Master, these poisonous weeds taste so weird, and they are only more poisonous and have no other abilities."

Yuan Ming became aware that Huazhi didn't seem to like these poisonous weeds, so he didn't release them.

A little further away, there are bright purple flowers in bud. The delicate flower buds bulge and shrink, spewing lavender pollen from the gaps. From a distance, they look like small fountains. .

I don’t know if it was because Yuan Ming had pulled out all the leaves of the Purple Grass, but the bright purple flower suddenly turned towards the three of them. The buds, which were only the size of a baby’s fist, hung down. The petals emitting purple light suddenly opened, revealing dense canines, and looked towards them. Yuan Ming and the others sprayed out streams of purple poisonous mist.

With the cultivation of Yuan Ming and the others, they would not be injured by such an attack. Long Chong waved his sleeves, and a strong wind rose from the ground, blowing away all the purple poisonous mist.

Qiong Yun's brows moved, and the purple thunder sword appeared instantly. With just a flash, it cut off all the purple flowers.

Perhaps Yuan Ming's actions just now reminded Long Chong and the others, and like Yuan Ming, they selected some from the remains of the purple flowers and collected them.

And Yuan Ming also sent the purple flower into the spirit beast bag again, and received the evaluation of being unpalatable and worthless from the flower branch.

Then, the three of them took a short rest to recover the spiritual energy consumed during the flight, and then continued to fly in the southeast direction according to the compass.

The Purple Grass Continent is much larger than the previous continent. The three of them have been flying for nearly twenty or thirty miles, but they have not been able to see the edge.

But at this moment, another tall mulberry forest appeared in front of them.

The trunk of the mulberry tree is still the original brown color, but the mulberry leaves are also dyed with a faint purple color.

The comfrey and purple flowers spreading along the way also stopped in front of the mulberry forest. At the foot of the mulberry trees, the soil seemed to have been turned over. Among the piles of broken soil and mud, there were occasional fragments of purple flowers and plants, as if they had been dug by something. Just torn into pieces.

"Does the compass indicate that we should enter this mulberry forest?" Yuan Ming looked ahead, roughly estimated the area of ​​the forest, and turned to ask.

Hearing the words, Qiong Yun activated the magic formula again, and the phantom of the round spoon on the compass turned in a circle, and finally pointed to the southeast.

"It seems we have to go in." Long Chong laughed and broke into the woods first.

At this moment, Yuan Ming, who was behind him, suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of the mulberry tree: "Be careful, there is a monster hiding in the crown."

As his voice fell, the purple mulberry leaves suddenly trembled greatly, and then, round gray heads popped out.
