Fairy Tree

Passing through the stone forest canyon, Xiao Lin and others suddenly saw a bright light before their eyes.

A huge lake appeared in front of them. Looking across it, they could not see the edge at a glance. On the extremely distant horizon, a towering mountain peak could be vaguely seen.

The mountain peak only showed a corner of the sky, and on top of the mountain peak, there was a faint light blue glow that kept flashing.

"This is Fengbo Lake. After passing Fengbo Lake, you will reach Scorpion Tail Mountain. The entrance to the second floor of the cave is on the top of Scorpion Tail Mountain." Looking at the towering peaks on the horizon, Nangong Chen said slowly.

Several people also had a look of joy on their faces. The first floor of the cave could be passed quickly. As long as they passed the second floor and entered the third floor, they would have the opportunity to pick purple spirit flowers. This made everyone feel happy. Naturally, infinite hope arose.

"It's not easy to cross this Fengbo Lake." Wen Lu said calmly, looking at the sparkling lake.

"Fengbo Lake covers a radius of two hundred miles. There are many monsters living in the lake. It is not easy to fly past them. Fortunately, there is a small rocky reef every few to ten miles, and many of them are exposed out of the water. It can be used as a stepping stone for a short rest." Next to him, Nangong Chen said with a solemn look on his face.

Xiao Lin looked at the calm lake in the distance and thought to himself. For cultivators in the Qi refining stage, it is not difficult to walk on water, but during the journey, if they are attacked by monsters, what will happen in this place? Being in a cave that is subject to air restrictions is more dangerous. After all, it is not easy to maintain stability on the water while mobilizing mana.

At this time, Xiao Lin saw Nangong Chen unhurriedly taking out a mini boat with a faint green light from the storage bag. If it weren't for the aura on it, Xiao Lin would have thought it was a toy for secular children. .

After taking out the boat, Nangong Chen closed his eyes slightly in the surprised gazes of everyone, and then muttered something in his mouth. After a while of tea, he gently threw the boat in his hand, and the boat quickly grew in size in mid-air. When it landed on the lake, it had turned into a two-foot-long wooden boat, and the surface of the wooden boat was also covered with a light cyan spiritual light shield.

"Flying magic weapon?" Seeing the small boat, not only Xiao Lin, Bai Shuangzhi, but also Wu and He were surprised. Even Wen Lu, the outer disciple of Dancao Mountain, also had a surprised expression on his face.

"This flying magic weapon is originally relatively useless. In terms of speed, it is not as fast as the ordinary flying sword flying magic weapon. And in this cave, there are air restrictions, so this cloud light boat magic weapon It can help us get through this stormy lake," Nangong Chen said softly with a smile.

"It seems that Brother Nangong has really put in a lot of effort for the trial in this cave." Wen Lu gave Nangong Chen a thoughtful look and said with a smile.

"Brother Wen, thank you for your praise. We casual cultivators are not as good as a few sect disciples. We have a big family and a big business, and we don't have to worry about our future. In comparison, rootless duckweeds like us naturally have to think more."

"We'd better leave quickly. You see, many people have already walked in front of us." Bai Shuangzhi glanced at the two of them and chuckled. She looked radiant. She stretched out her delicate jade fingers and pointed at the distant place. lake surface.

On the surface of the lake, there are indeed many cultivators who have begun to move towards Scorpion Tail Mountain. There are various ways to cross the lake. Some of them got tree stumps from nowhere, stepped on them, and poured their magic power into the stumps. , driving forward, some stepped on a huge leaf, and the waves sparkled under the leaves, and some simply used the wind control technique and stepped on the lake surface as if it were flat ground and moved forward gracefully.

But there are also many cultivators who have boat-shaped magical instruments similar to those taken out by Nangong Chen, and they turn into various kinds of wooden boats and drive forward.

Looking around, wherever they could see, there were at least hundreds of cultivators crossing the Fengbo Lake, which was quite spectacular at the time. Although the Qi Refining Period cultivators who came to this cave had different purposes, most of them were Partly because they came here for the Purple Spirit Flower, they naturally regarded entering the third floor of the catacombs as their top priority. This gave Xiao Lin a little more imagination about the cruelty on the third floor of the catacombs. He could even see the third floor of the catacombs. Scenes of rivers of blood.

"Fellow Daoist Bai is right. Even if you enter the third floor of the cave in advance, you may not be able to find the Purple Spirit Flower first. Even if you find it, you may not be able to save it. But it is always good to be able to take the lead. Let's not delay. , let’s go.” After Nangong Chen said something, he jumped up and jumped onto the deck of the boat by the lake. The moment he jumped on the boat, the cyan light shield automatically opened a gap to allow him to enter. , quite spiritual.

Naturally, Xiao Lin and the others no longer hesitated, and jumped up one after another, jumping onto the deck. Wen Lu hesitated for a moment, then called to the two people behind him, jumped up, and landed towards the boat.

Several people got on the boat and each found a place to sit down cross-legged. Since the boat was very small, there were no cabins or other cabins. Naturally, they did not have the elegance of boating on the lake. With this rest time, they naturally gave priority. Choose to meditate to adjust your own mana and spirit to the best state.

Nangong Chen stood at the bow of the boat, with his hands behind his back. The boat's tail immediately set off a wave of waves, and the boat followed him like an arrow from the string, heading towards the Scorpion Tail Mountain.

Xiao Lin found a remote corner, sat down cross-legged, took a pill of Great Recovery Pill, and calmly adjusted his breathing. The mana consumed in the fight with the Shadow Python also began to slowly recover. .

"Ah~"

After driving for half an hour, suddenly, a shrill scream came from the distance. Everyone's expressions changed, and they stood up and looked into the distance.

When they saw the scene in the distance, everyone turned pale. It turned out that a few miles in front of the boat, a large number of monsters appeared. Those monsters looked like fish, but they were covered with fish. scales.

The tail is even more forked like two long rope darts. What's even more strange is that the head of this strange fish is about four to five inches like a human being. On top of its head, there is a cluster of palm-sized pieces hanging down. red hair.

What a few people saw were dense red light spots, and when the strange fish jumped up, it would suddenly open its mouth, and the mouth actually occupied half of its face.

From a distance, it looked as if someone had cut the entire face in half with a knife, but the jagged fangs shining with a forest-white cold light made all cultivators who saw it couldn't help but shiver in their hearts.

Xiao Lin and others saw a monk who was stepping on a leaf about a foot tall and was directly attacked by dozens of strange fish. They almost didn't even react before they were dragged into the water, followed closely by the screams. The screams came out and vibrated on the lake.

Where he originally stood, there was only a leaf riddled with holes and reddish blood emerging from the lake.

"Sly-faced acupuncture?" Wen Lu couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the strange fish, and after Nangong Chen thought about it for a while, his expression changed drastically.

"Is it really the Cunning-faced Acupuncture? Didn't it say that this kind of monster has become extinct in the Storm Lake? Why are there still so many of them?" Nangong Chen said with a pale face.

Wen Lu also had a gloomy look on his face. He stared at the large red light spots in the distance and said in a deep voice: "In the past few openings of the cave, no one has encountered this strange-faced acupuncture. That's why there are people." It was thought that this kind of monster was extinct, but now it seems that not only is this kind of monster not extinct, but its number is actually astonishing, and we, the people, are probably in danger.”

Hearing this, Xiao Lin's heart sank. This Wenlu is an outer disciple of Dancao Mountain, and his cultivation has entered the Qi Refining Stage. He is probably also a powerful figure among the outer disciples of Dancao Mountain. He They all say that people like me are very dangerous, so I'm afraid that the strange-faced needle beast is really difficult to deal with.

After Wen Lu said the name of the monster, Bai Shuangzhi's pretty face was pale and bloodless, and her eyes showed deep fear. It seemed that she had already known the name of the monster. As for Wu and He, they were just like themselves. His face was blank, and he obviously didn't understand this mysterious person.

"Fellow Taoist Nangong, how powerful is this cunning-faced acupuncture? Judging from the expressions of several of them, they seem to be quite afraid of this monster." The monk surnamed Wu couldn't help but asked the question first.

Hearing this, Nangong Chen glanced at the monk surnamed Wu, and then said with a heavy heart: "It is said that this strange-faced acupuncture is the hybrid between the strange-faced fish in the storm lake and the black poisonous flying scorpion in the Scorpion Tail Mountain, but this kind of monster Except for the ability of the Black Poison Flying Scorpion and Flying Sky, the beast can be said to have inherited all the characteristics of these two monsters."

After a pause, Nangong Chen continued: "This tricky-faced acupuncture not only has extremely hard scales, but also has jagged teeth that can bite anything. Even ordinary mid-level magic weapons cannot withstand its bite. The most powerful thing is the tuft of red hair on its head and the two tail needles on its tail. Those two tail needles contain highly toxic substances, although they are less toxic than the black poison flying scorpion. But even if a cultivator in the foundation-building stage is inserted into his body, his soul will be corroded within three seconds, which is extremely powerful."

"But the most troublesome thing is the cluster of red hair on its head. In fact, it is not accurate to say it is hair. It is more appropriate to say it is needles. The red hairs are hundreds of wind-red needles, which have their own wind properties. Once It was shot out like a volley of thousands of arrows, and the poison on it is the same as the poison on the tail needle. It is specially designed to corrode people's soul. Most monks have almost no time to save themselves." Wen Lu took over Nangong Chen's words and explained.

After listening to the explanations of the two people, Xiao Lin, Wu, and He all changed their faces. Just listening to the two people's explanations of the monster made the three of them feel numb. This monster almost reached the level of " "Perfect" level.

And in Xiao Lin's view, this kind of monster is obviously a gregarious monster, and it is at least a high-level mortal. For cultivators like them who are eager to cross the Fengbo Lake and enter the second floor of the cave, it is simply impossible. A chasm that words span.
