The Path to Immortality

"In order to ensure that we can pass as smoothly as possible, it is best for everyone to introduce their own strength or the methods they are good at. It is best if they can help us pass through this mountain of rocks."

"Who comes first?"

After a brief silence, Zhuang Daoling was the first to speak, saying: "Zhuang is in the middle stage of foundation building. He is good at water-moving Taoism and knows some spiritual cooking skills. When I rest on the way, I can show you my skills."

Ingenious cooking skills?

Taoist Jinghai was slightly disappointed, but his expression remained calm and he looked at the others.

Kong Lanfang, a female cultivator in red who had just arrived a few days ago, said secondly: "I am also a middle-stage foundation-building cultivator. I don't know how to practice immortal arts, but I have a middle-grade spiritual weapon that I got by accident, which can summon a foundation-building cultivator. The ghost of basic combat power.”

"The ghost's hiding ability is very good. As long as it doesn't get too close, ordinary monks in the late stage of foundation building may not be able to detect it. Whether it is waiting in front to clear the way for me, or secretly alerting and guarding during rest, it is very useful."

The spiritual weapon Kong Lanfang mentioned made Taoist Jinghai's eyes light up and he nodded slightly.

He also has a similar item in his hand, but the effect is not as good as this woman's.

With the help of this ghost, I think I can be more confident about this trip.

Among the crowd, a monk dressed in white and calling himself Ding Biwu also introduced: "Ding also has no special skills, but his strength is only one step away from the late stage of foundation building. He also has the ice spirit root among the alien spirit roots and is a master of black ice spells." Pretty good.”

Upon seeing this, Zhao Toutuo said, "Zhao has also practiced a body-training technique and considers himself to be quite strong. When encountering monsters, he voluntarily rushes forward to kill them."

These two people don't seem to have any special means and can only act as thugs.

Taoist Jinghai was noncommittal and looked at Duanmu Chen and Fang Ping, the only two people who had not yet been introduced.

Duanmu Chen pointed at himself: "I don't need to say it anymore, right? A first-level talisman master with a late-stage cultivation of foundation. I think I won't hold you back."

This statement is indeed true. The cultivation in the later stage of foundation building is the boss’s greatest support.

As a result, everyone looked at Fang Ping.

Fang Ping had too many tricks, and he was just hesitant about which one to show off.

After pondering for a moment, he patted the spirit beast bag on his waist and released Dahei.

After all, this spirit beast bag is one size larger than the ordinary storage bag, and it looks quite conspicuous. Even if you don't mention it, others may not notice it, so you might as well use it as a cover-up.

"Ouch!"

He was used to protecting the two maids at Liuhufang in a leisurely way, and recently stayed in the spirit beast bag again. Dahei felt somewhat bored and uncomfortable.

At this moment, he finally came out for a walk, so he naturally let out an excited dragon roar.

The majesty of the dragon contained in it made other monks slightly shocked.

"First-order black scale dragon!"

Zhao Toutuo was the first to reveal the origin of Dahei, which made Fang Ping look at him with admiration.

This black-scaled dragon has a powerful aura, and it is obvious at a glance that it is proficient in water-moving Taoism. Its dragon scales are even more impressive in terms of defense.

With the help of such a powerful spiritual beast, it's no wonder that Taoist Xu Fei was able to obtain so many demonic materials!

Glancing at everyone's expressions, Fang Ping smiled lightly and said: "During his Qi training period, when Xu was exploring a water house at the bottom of a river, he was lucky enough to accidentally obtain the eggs of a black-scaled dragon. He has been raising them ever since. With its help, I believe that Xu’s fighting power will not disappoint you.”

After listening to Fang Ping's introduction, Taoist Jinghai nodded secretly.

Of course he knew that the strength the six people were talking about at this moment was only part of the real strength shown by each of them, and there must be more than one trump card hidden in the secret.

But even so, the apparent strength of this team is quite impressive.

No wonder they had the confidence to leave Yunzhou and head to the Western Wasteland at the foundation-building level!

He no longer hesitated and said: "Pindao already basically knows your strength and skills. If there is no doubt, let's set off from here."

Having said that, Taoist Jinghai was the first to lower his altitude and fly into the Jishi Valley.

The reason for lowering the height is because there are many ferocious birds and monsters in Jishi Mountain, and they can easily become conspicuous targets when flying high in the sky.

In particular, among the three golden elixir monsters deep in Jishi Mountain, there is a monster bird.

If an unfortunate encounter occurs, there is still a chance of survival by hiding on the ground.

If it is discovered while flying in the air, it will definitely be regarded as a strange enemy that has trespassed on its own territory by the hot-tempered golden elixir demon bird, and will be pursued and killed without hesitation!

Although lowering the height will also encounter attacks from monsters on the ground, overall, it is a relatively safer choice.

With Taoist Jinghai's personal experience and the safety experience summarized by his predecessors, Fang Ping and others would naturally not object.

A group of seven people took the initiative to lower their height to about tens of feet above the ground, and flew into Jishi Mountain one after another.

Finally, he looked back at the land of Yunzhou, and Fang Ping seemed to want to remember this "homeland" in his heart.

Immediately, he no longer had any nostalgia in his heart and followed the team.

For him, a new journey has begun!

………

Looking back, he is indeed a force that specializes in the business of guiding people.

Taoist Jinghai who led the way was very familiar with the environment in Jishi Mountain, common monsters and spiritual plants, dangerous areas that needed to be detoured, etc.

Under his leadership, the trip of the seven people went extremely smoothly in the first three days.

Except for the scattered monsters wandering around, I didn't encounter any decent dangers.

However, starting from the fourth day, as everyone really went deep into Jishi Mountain, the dangers they encountered began to become more frequent.

After flying over a raised terrain, the mountain forest ahead became sparse, and gravel and desert gradually appeared.

Jinghai Taoist stopped, took out bottles of powder from his storage bag, and distributed them to everyone.

"What is this?"

Ding Biwu looked at the pungent powder in the bottle with a suspicious look.

Jinghai Taoist explained: "This is a first-level [Demon Expelling Powder], which can restrain the scorpions in Jishi Mountain. Sprinkle it once, and the effect will last for seven days. If we don't have this, we may be attacked by groups of scorpions at any time on the road ahead, and it will be difficult to move forward."

As he said, Jinghai Taoist took the lead in taking a bottle and sprinkled some on himself.

With the guide's personal demonstration, Duanmu Chen and other monks no longer doubted, and each took a bottle and used it.

In the crowd, Fang Ping seemed to be doing the same thing slowly, but he was actually identifying this powder in secret.

"Although the auxiliary materials in the recipe are slightly different, the effects are the same. There should be no tricks..."

However, for the sake of caution, Fang Ping did not use the powder provided by Jinghai Taoist, but quietly replaced the powder with the demon-repelling powder he made himself.

It is always right to have more preparations.

After everyone had finished spreading the powder, Jinghai Taoist moved forward again.

As the seven people flew into the desert, in just a quarter of an hour, the thick gravel below suddenly shook.

One by one, the first-level foundation-building monsters with terrible scorpion claws and slender tail spikes emerged from the gravel and looked at the foundation-building monks in the low sky.

It was the earth-shaking scorpion that could be seen everywhere in Jishishan!
