Eternal Tranquility

As soon as the notice from the Loose Cultivator Alliance was issued, within two days, Haoyuan City was mostly empty.

In the Wenshi sect's camp, Ji Yue passed down a message, asking the disciples to just kill the monsters, and they would be notified later if anything happened.

Everyone else entered Qushang Swamp excitedly. Only Liu Qinghuan walked out of the city on the third day because he had reached the first level of Jiutianfenshenju.

As soon as they left the city, they discovered that the outside of the city was also very lively. The Qi-training monks dressed in casual cultivator alliance uniforms were digging holes in the ground ten miles outside the city.

The pits are all thirty feet deep, but only two feet in diameter. Therefore, those qi-training monks could only huddle in the pit with great grievance and use magic to dig into the soil.

Other monks passing by stopped to watch curiously: "Hey, what are you doing?"

A qi-training monk who was working impatiently said angrily: "Don't have eyes to see? Dig a hole!"

"They are digging here and there, rows and rows, and they are digging so deep. What are they digging for?"

"I don't know! If you are annoying or not, just go away while you have nothing to do!"

Liu Qinghuan scanned it briefly and realized that each pit here was set according to a specific and mysterious position, and was used to bury the formation disks or formation stones of a certain large formation. Only large formations need to be buried so deeply.

He took a few glances, then quickly passed by those people and entered the Qushang Swamp to the west.

However, the situation in the swamp almost made him think that he was in the wrong place.

Not to mention not seeing a single monster, even the grass and trees were trampled to pieces, as if they had just encountered a mob crossing the border, and it was a mess.

It wasn't until he went dozens of miles deeper that the situation improved. Occasionally, he would encounter traces of low-level monks. Some were fighting monsters, some were looking around in the forest, and some were even fighting each other. Very busy.

Liu Qinghuan would never compete with these people for the peripheral first-order monsters. His speed is extremely fast, and he often passes by the monks before they are aware of it.

He galloped all the way until he entered the range of the second-level monster, and then he slowed down.

This area is somewhat similar to the outside of Qushang Swamp. A large group of foundation-building monks probably passed by here, so there was no sign of humans or animals.

Liu Qinghuan simply stopped. Before, because he was in the city, he had been holding back his spiritual consciousness and did not dare to let it go at will. Now he can finally let it go without any scruples.

He closed his eyes and felt the changes after achieving the first level of Jiutian Difenshen Technique.

With him as the center, the entire area within a three-mile radius is covered by his consciousness!

Normally, the range of a monk's spiritual consciousness in the early stages of foundation building is about one mile, and for strong ones it can reach a little more than one mile. When Liu Qinghuan did not practice the Jiutian Divination Technique, his spiritual consciousness range could reach about two and a half miles, but now it has increased by half a mile.

Don't underestimate the distance of half a mile. The growth of spiritual consciousness is extremely slow. Such an increase in blessing is already considered huge.

His eyebrows moved, and the originally scattered spiritual consciousness quickly condensed into a line, and finally condensed into a bundle, and the detection distance was astonishingly five miles, which was wider than the range of ordinary spiritual consciousness in the middle stage of foundation building.

This is the first change in the spiritual consciousness after the Jiutian Divination Technique has been cultivated to the first level: condensing the spiritual consciousness into bundles so that it can explore further.

This result made Liu Qinghuan very satisfied.

He was about to put away his consciousness when a monster beast with lumps and bumps all over its body suddenly crawled out of a swamp and appeared in his field of vision.

Black water poison toad? This is a second-level low-grade monster, famous for the mucus secreted from its body that contains huge poison. But as long as you don't get close to it, you're not afraid of its venom.

Liu Qinghuan looked at it quietly, but he didn't expect that there was another monster that slipped through the net.

Black water poisonous toads usually hide in the deepest part of the quagmire. They only occasionally surface and attack suddenly from the water. When they see the situation is not right, they will quickly hide under the water. They are cunning and timid, so it is reasonable for them not to be caught. among.

But this black water poison toad climbed onto the shore for some unknown reason. Its fat and bloated body moved on the ground step by step, looking very bulky.

Following the direction of the toad, Liu Qinghuan searched around and found the body of a monk behind a big tree.

"Now that we have met, let's start with you." Liu Qinghuan muttered to himself. He put away his flying sword, activated the Pingxu Wind Control Technique, and silently approached the Blackwater Poison Toad.

The Blackwater Poison Toad crawled very slowly for a while, opened its big mouth, and a white tongue popped out like lightning, stretching more than three feet, stuck to the head of the corpse behind the tree and quickly pulled it back.

Its tongue was so powerful that it clung to the whole corpse like a leaf. It returned to its side with just a flash and brought it into its mouth for a big chew.

Seeing this, Liu Qinghuan quickly activated his magic power and accelerated his speed again. The black water poison toad will quickly return to the mire after eating the corpse, and it will be extremely troublesome to catch it at that time.

When he arrived, he saw that the Blackwater Poison Toad had turned around. Fortunately, its body is too bulky, and its crawling speed is far less than the speed of its tongue.

Liu Qinghuan carefully stopped five feet away, first took out the star turtle armor shield, and with a finger of his hand, he saw several green seedlings emerging from the edge of the swamp. Under the urging of the mana, they quickly sprang up, entwined with each other, grew, and formed knots. It formed a dense green vine net, sealing the Black Water Poison Toad's retreat path.

The Blackwater Poison Toad's eyes bulged, and it let out a "croak" sound as if it was frightened, and the legs of the unfinished corpse in its big mouth fell out.

I saw a flick of the white tongue, and a hole was pierced through the strong vine net!

However, the green branches around the hole grew rapidly and quickly filled the hole.

While the poisonous toad was attacking the vine net, Liu Qinghuan spilled a few seeds, and the mana was drained away like running water. Several large trees rose up from the ground behind the vine net, and quickly became thick and tall, completely blocking it from entering the swamp. road.

The black water poisonous toad croaked wildly and stabbed its tongue into the tree trunk, making deep pits.

For a while, sawdust was flying, but there was still some distance before the tree broke.

The black water poison toad was annoyed, gave up and returned to the mire. Without any warning, he turned his head and his white tongue flicked in front of Liu Qinghuan!

Fortunately, Liu Qinghuan's Star Turtle Armor Shield had been blocked in front of him, otherwise it would have come down so quickly that it would have been almost impossible to defend against it.

Huge force came from the star tortoise armor shield. Liu Qinghuan quickly interrupted the spell in his hand and controlled the armor shield to block another tongue attack.

The defensive power of the star tortoise armor shield was indeed astonishing. Even after being stabbed several times, no trace was left on it.

On the contrary, the tongue of the Blackwater Poison Toad felt painful and numb after several attacks, and it seemed to be imprinted with the star-shaped protruding pattern on the star tortoise's armor shield.

It puffed up its cheeks and let out a low and angry "coo" sound, and suddenly pulled its hind legs back!

Liu Qinghuan suddenly became vigilant, moved her feet, and used the Xu Wind Control Technique to control the wind instantly.

A heavy "thud" sounded in the forest, making the ground jump three times!

The black water poisonous toad, which was like a mountain of meat, jumped to the position where Liu Qinghuan was just now with agility that was completely opposite to the clumsiness when crawling before, making a big hole in the ground.

Liu Qinghuan, who jumped to the side in mid-air in time, almost turned green. She wanted to sit on him with this butt, not like a meat pie!
