Chapter 263: Spirit Grasses in Dangerous Magnetic Peaks, Er Dao Shen Seeking Treasures Everywhere
That group of rogue cultivators, along the cracks between the cliffs, borrowed force between various rock crevices and chaotic stones, and slowly descended dozens of zhang. At this time, the magnetic needle in the God-Illuminating Luo Pan in Senior Liang's hand trembled slightly.
The magnetic needle was made of Emperor Di Liu Jiang, but the tip of the needle trembled slightly, attracted by the spirit machine.
It is common for one name to refer to two things. Besides the moon essence that even Primordial Spirit True Persons cannot seek, Emperor Di Liu Jiang is also a strange magnetic stone that does not absorb iron.
"There is spiritual energy gathering nearby!"
Senior Liang's face was happy, but after looking at where the magnetic needle pointed, it turned ugly again.
Where the magnetic needle pointed, it was a suspended peak hanging on the edge of the Lei Hai, dozens of zhang away from them in the void.
Although everyone had the ability to fly, it was like a mortal wading through water. They didn't even have a flying magic treasure. Relying on a few Wind-Driving Talismans, Talisman-Patterned Grass Dragons, and Armored Horse Flying Talismans in their sleeves was like wading with a float... It was useful, but when encountering big winds and waves, these things were really of no use.
And their own wind-driving spells were like swimming skills. It was fine to fly low for dozens of zhang on flat ground, but when encountering a dangerous place like the Lei Hai Yuan Magnetic, those who drowned were all those who could swim.
Except for those aristocratic family children who could drive flying magic treasures to explore the void between the cliffs and the Lei Hai and collect spirit medicines and spirit materials on suspended peaks and flying stones, most rogue cultivators only explored along the stone walls and did not dare to set foot in the void suspended peaks. Aristocratic families had flying treasures, just like people driving boats, so exploring this section of the void was much safer.
And those who had refined the Inner Scene True Thunder Pill like Qian Chen were like those who had practiced their swimming skills into Jiao dragons, and could come and go freely in the Lei Hai. The Flying Cloud Pocket under his feet was the best among flying magic artifacts, a ten-thousand-ton giant ship that could not be threatened by anything less than a level-eight or level-ten gale in any dangerous place.
The big man pondered, "It's only dozens of zhang, we can be careful and fly over."
Senior Liang hesitated slightly: "But the suspended peaks wander without fixedness. If they drift deeper when we land on them, the risk of us wanting to come back will double for every ten zhang we go deeper. And if we are dragged by the dangers above! When the Yuan Magnetic storm strikes, the suspended peak is rolled away, not only is there a possibility of being rolled into the Lei Hai, but even if we are lucky enough to hold on! We don't know where we will be rolled to?"
"Big Brother, you have the God-Illuminating Luo Pan in your hand, so there is still hope of finding the way back." The big man persuaded.
The middle-aged cultivator Senior Liang, who was the leader, just smiled bitterly: "This compass of mine is okay for mixing on the edge, but if I am rolled too far, I don't have the confidence myself!"
"Like this... let's test whether there is really goods on it first!"
After saying that, Senior Liang turned his head to look behind him. The rat-like man grinned, took a few steps forward, steadied his mind, found the leeward side of the magnetic peak, faced the breeze blowing on his face, reached out and clamped a stick of incense that slid out of his sleeve, and lit it with magic power.
Wisps of green smoke drifted under his nose.
He inhaled forcefully, his chest expanded sharply, and he inhaled the wisp of smoke into his nose, then held his nose and coughed violently, using the smoke to clear his nasal passages. Black energy sprayed out from his ears, and the man shivered, feeling his sense of smell become a hundred times more sensitive. Originally, his sense of smell was more sensitive than ordinary cultivators, and at this time, he could distinguish any mixed smells clearly.
The charming woman laughed, "Luo San, don't drop the chain at this time with your dog nose."
After saying that, the woman raised her fingertips, and a green fly lay on it. Several small green flies on its back flapped their wings and flew toward the magnetic iron peak. Halfway there, several green flies were electrocuted by the weak thunder light flickering in the void. The last green fly flew onto the suspended peak and exploded into a cloud of blood mist, staining the ground. The woman summoned it, and the dust stained with the green fly blood suspended and flew toward the woman.
Qian Chen was waiting for Er Dao Shen on the side! It was also interesting to watch.
He didn't expect that rogue cultivators opening a nasal passage and taking a little debris could be so fancy, with such a sense of ritual, containing the first few mysteries of spells.
Unlike their true transmissions of the Daoist sect, where opening all the acupoints is basically done upon penetrating the law, and even if they haven't established a foundation and only roughly understand some spells, they can open acupoints with the help of talismans—it's very boring!
Luo San distinguished the breath in the wind, opened his eyes, grinned, and said, "There is something!"
The woman took back the green fly blood, handed it to Senior Liang, and Senior Liang rubbed the dust in the blood and whispered, "This dust has the appearance of soil..." After saying that, he took out a piece of magnetic stone, and a few tiny iron filings were adsorbed on it. Senior Liang sensed the magnetic force slightly and whispered, "The quality of gold and iron is also quite pure... This might be a magnetic peak drifting out of the Lei Hai!"
Everyone's face changed. Yuan Magnetic storms blowing out of the Lei Hai, besides being very dangerous, also bring out spirit materials and sundries from the Lei Hai. That's why this secret realm is so rich, and every day of scavenging is inexhaustible. Many places that have been searched, after experiencing a Yuan Magnetic storm, will roll out some spirit materials again, so there is no fixed production point, and even aristocratic families cannot occupy it.
The suspended peak that produces spirit medicines today might be rolled back into the Lei Hai by a Yuan Magnetic storm tomorrow.
The Lei family once wanted to fix a magnetic peak drifting from the depths of the Lei Hai, which was said to contain Yuan Magnetic Divine Iron. It is said that the Yuan Magnetic Divine Iron refined from it was at least a hundred jin, but during the calm period of the Lei Hai, the Lei family only mined a hundred jin of ore, and could not refine a few taels in total, so someone wanted to fix the magnetic peak on the cliff. As a result, the next Yuan Magnetic storm tore the nine magic artifact iron chains that locked the magnetic peak, and it disappeared without a trace.
This kind of magnetic peak from the depths of the Lei Hai has a very high possibility of containing spirit materials, but it is also very dangerous.
The next Yuan Magnetic storm will almost certainly move it significantly, and it is very likely to return to the Lei Hai.
"Luo Laosan!" Senior Liang shouted, and Luo San didn't dare to neglect, and quickly said, "There is the fragrance of spirit medicine in the wind!"
The big man behind Senior Liang gritted his teeth and said, "The last Yuan Magnetic storm has just passed, this ticket can be done!"
Senior Liang also made up his mind and said to the others behind him, "If you have any means at the bottom of the box, hurry up and explain them. If this is done, everyone will get rich. If there is an accident, none of us can escape!"
An honest-looking cultivator bit his lower lip, and hundreds of talismans suddenly flew up from his body, merging into a grass dragon. The grass dragon shook its head and tail, becoming several zhang long and as thick as a water bucket. The talisman paper on it was grass-quality, loose and sagging, although there were hundreds of them, the texture was not as good as the cheapest yellow talisman paper, let alone compared with the high-quality talisman paper often used by Si Qingguo.
That person sat on the grass dragon and whispered, "This grass dragon of mine can carry three people without any problem, but you must protect me. I am willing to ride with fellow Daoists who can take out protective magic artifacts!"
Another cultivator raised a small shield in his hand and said, "How about this Wandering Light Shield of mine?"
The honest cultivator nodded, made a guarantee in front of the others, and another person revealed a subtle Golden Light Spell, which also won the permission of the honest cultivator.
Senior Liang and the big man joined forces to sacrifice the wreckage of half a cloud carriage. Only the cloud bed and a screen remained of the cloud carriage, which actually attracted the envious eyes of others. A team of cultivators used their magic power, and at the worst, they could pinch two flying talismans.
They saw them join forces to break into the void, carefully avoiding the scattered thunder rays in it. The cloud carriage and the grass dragon were indeed proper wind-driving methods, and they quickly aimed at a protruding rock crossbeam on the cliff of the suspended peak to land. Others were a little slower, but they also landed safely. Only the few who used flying talismans at the end were grazed by a thunder ray as thick as a chopstick, which actually shattered one person's protective talisman, and the flying talisman immediately burned.
This person screamed, but was split by the power of the thunder ray in the opposite direction of the suspended peak.
Luo San, who landed safely on the suspended peak, shook his head and said, "Protective talismans must at least be a Three-Mountain True Talisman! Even if you can't afford a Three-Kai Kai Shan Fu, you must get a genuine one from the Wuling market! Finding a rogue cultivator who sells talismans, greedy for this little cheapness, and actually daring to go down to the secret realm? The entrance fee alone is not enough!"
A rogue cultivator who knew this person said miserably, "Brother Han sold his family's magic artifact just to buy the entrance fee of the Thirteenth Lady. Where would he have the talisman money to buy a Three-Kai Kai Shan Fu? That Li Laoqie who sells talismans has a good reputation..."
"Who can blame this!" Everyone shook their heads one after another.
On the edge of the Lei Hai, going ten zhang deeper, the danger suddenly doubles. That person drifted out for twenty zhang. How many people here would risk such danger to rescue him?
Qian Chen, who was watching from afar, really didn't expect that they would die just by flying over a mountain. He sighed, a point of magic power probed out, a thunder light flashed in the void, split on this person's chest, and split him back.
That person's chest was charred, and he smashed toward the suspended peak.
Senior Liang sighed, "It's good to have a corpse, so let's cremate him and entrust a fellow Daoist to take him out! At least let his family have a thought."
The rogue cultivator who was on the same road as him saw this person smash on the magnetic peak and went up to collect the corpse.
But he saw this person groan and wake up. It turned out that the thunder only knocked him out of breath. Qian Chen naturally wouldn't make any mistakes when he took action. He smashed him, and after he eased his breath, he woke up.
The big man laughed, "You are also lucky!"
He handed over a flying talisman. The man thanked him thousands of times, took the flying talisman, looked at the Three-Mountain Dharma Seal on it, and breathed a sigh of relief. The bank of Junior Sister Si's family added another loyal believer.
The big man also saw the products of this magnetic peak clearly, and his mood was excellent. This was why he was so generous, after all, one more person meant more things could be collected. This suspended peak was vast, and before the Yuan Magnetic storm came, there was only not enough time, not not enough things.
In the mountain rocks with metallic luster under his feet, there were dots of silver light, which made the big man determine at a glance that the magnetic peak contained some kind of precious spirit ore. But for rogue cultivators like them, the efficiency of mining was too low. Even if this spirit ore might be very precious, it was not cost-effective.
Most importantly, in the cracks of the magnetic peak, a purple small grass was vaguely visible, emitting a strong spirit medicine smell. Although the age of this spirit grass was not high, the quality was excellent. The Lei Hai contained destructive power, but it also nurtured great vitality, and the spirit grasses produced were not of low quality.
Senior Liang stuck his butt over and lay down, carefully pulling out the purple small grass, which was only an inch long and as thin as a hair, along with its roots. He whispered, "This is a new variety of spirit medicine produced in the Lei Hai, called Thunder Dew Grass..."
He raised a finger and said, "Fifty plants can be exchanged for a Three-Kai Kai Shan Fu."
Everyone's face showed joy. Although this spirit grass was not common on the magnetic peak, there were dozens of them in the places they saw, and there were at least thousands of them on the whole magnetic peak. This item alone could make everyone return fully loaded, and the capital for adventuring in the Lei Hai would be doubled!
A group of people wanted to explore the magnetic peak first, eliminate the dangers, and then distribute the territory according to their cultivation.
Several people immediately joined forces to advance, on the one hand, not missing the spirit grasses along the way, and on the other hand, moving toward the front at a not slow speed. If it was too steep and there might be hidden dangers, they would let it go for the time being.
A group of people borrowed force on the cliff of the suspended peak, and in the blink of an eye, they swept across a distance of several zhang. After circling half a circle like this, they found that in a concave place on a cliff in the distance, a shallow pool of thunder water was emitting blue-purple thunder light, and was constantly scattering into fine thunder rays through the magnetic peak.
Next to the thunder water, Thunder Dew Grass covered a layer, and there were several strange flowers and grasses entangled with thunder light, taking root in the thunder water.
On the edge of the cave entrance on the cliff, dozens of slender shadows like hair were drooping.
Senior Liang's pupils shrank, he turned his head to look at the big man, and the two eyes just met, when he heard Luo San beside him tremble all over, and whispered in surprise, "Mutated Long Xucao! This is the mutated Long Xucao in the Lei Hai. It is more effective for the transformation of dragon and snake species than ordinary Long Xucao. It also contains a stream of thunder spiritual energy, which can temper true Qi. The major aristocratic families are preparing to use it to refine new Foundation Establishment Pills!"
"One plant!" He trembled and stretched out a finger, "Ten Three-Mountain Talismans!"
When Luo San shouted, killing intent burst out in the eyes of Senior Liang and the big man, but it was suppressed in the blink of an eye. At this time, it was not the time to turn against each other. Seeing the Long Xucao protruding from the cliff, everyone wanted to see what was in that concave place even more!
Immediately, everyone quickened their pace. If it weren't for the fear of that pool of thunder water, several people would have almost rushed over.
Just as they ran a few steps and quickened their touch toward that place, a small hand grabbed the Long Xucao, and immediately after, a small head the size of a thumb poked out, looking at them ignorantly.
It was Er Dao Shen.
Qian Chen came in this direction just to pick it up on the way.
Er Dao Shen was wrapped in the Long Xucao, curiously looking at those rogue cultivators, and a group of rogue cultivators were somewhat afraid. There were many strange things in this forbidden land. Who knew if this kind of creature was a thunder spirit transformed from the depths of the Lei Hai, or some demon transformation?
Only Senior Liang was somewhat excited, whispering, "This is a spirit between heaven and earth. They are naturally able to perceive spiritual energy, and wherever they go, there must be treasures."
"There is still mystery in the cave!"
Er Dao Shen opened its mouth and yawned, tilted its head and looked at the rogue cultivators. It had already sensed Qian Chen's location, so it wouldn't care about these people! Take the best treasure in the cave and leave the weeds and rotten leaves to them.
It was not prepared to stay and watch the show either!
Er Dao Shen flew into the cave swayingly, preparing to get the treasure it had just discovered. Senior Liang was about to raise the cloud carriage to chase, when he saw a few weak silver rays flying out of the pool of thunder water, which scared him to stop his steps and whispered, "Be careful, that's a thunder spirit!"
The big man snorted, "It's not golden, so it can be dealt with. Lure them out first!" ===== CHAPTER 264 =====
