Chapter 50 Pure Joy! Senior Brother is dying!
The spiritual energy in the Changping Mountains is not abundant.
Few demonic beasts appear; instead, there are wild animals that cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Resources are also scarce inside the mountains.
There are almost no spiritual herbs or flowers, only some common herbs. Villagers from the nearby mountains occasionally enter the area to pick herbs and sell them at the market.
But recently, evil spirits have been causing trouble, and the villagers in the vicinity are afraid to even leave their homes.
Not to mention searching for medicinal herbs in the mountains.
This made the mountains very quiet, with no living creatures along the way.
"Why is the spiritual energy in this place so thin?"
As soon as Xu Nian and the others entered the Changping Mountains, they sensed that something was wrong.
There is too little spiritual energy in it.
Generally speaking, special areas like mountains and forests have a higher concentration of spiritual energy than other places.
But here it's the opposite.
The spiritual energy is thinner inside the mountain range than outside.
The deeper you go, the fainter the spiritual energy becomes.
Xu Nian's eyelids twitched, and a thought popped into her mind, "Why does it feel like something inside this mountain range is absorbing spiritual energy, making the spiritual energy of the entire mountain range thin?"
The deeper you go, the less spiritual energy there is.
This is unreasonable.
There must be a reason for this special situation.
After Xu Nian finished speaking, her junior brother and senior sister both began to frown.
Wu Qinghuan squinted and nodded, "That makes some sense."
Xu Nian rolled her eyes at him.
What does a little kid like him know? He's not even fully grown yet, but he acts all old-fashioned.
I am reborn, and I know more.
Are you also a reincarnated person?
You little rascal, you really deserve a spanking!
Wait, why do I keep thinking about spanking my junior brother?
Xu Nian shook her head, cursing the karmic fire in her heart.
"That's certainly a possibility. Xiao Nian reacted very quickly and is quite clever."
Fu Qiuyu nodded, praising Xu Nian at the same time.
Her expression turned serious as she instructed, "You two stay away from me for a while. If the situation in the mountains is as Xiao Nian guessed, then the thing inside that absorbs spiritual energy will be extremely powerful."
It's important to understand that the spiritual energy within an entire mountain range is an enormous quantity.
If there were something that could absorb and refine all the spiritual energy in the mountains.
Its strength must be extremely powerful.
At this moment, Wu Qinghuan seemed to have thought of something, "Is it possible that the black pool is guarded by that demon? Is there something in the pool?"
Upon hearing his junior brother's voice, Xu Nian's eyes lit up.
An exciting idea quickly popped into my head.
Treasures from heaven and earth!
Fu Qiuyu also reached this point and became expectant, "If that's the case, then it's very likely to be a rare and precious herb that has been around for a long time."
She nodded again, seemingly confirming Wu Qinghuan's statement, "This explains why the demon guards the Blackwater Pool; it must be waiting for a rare and precious treasure to appear."
With that in mind, the three quickened their pace.
His figure shot away with a whoosh.
Fu Qiuyu even used talismans to make the three of them lighter and faster.
He then touched the jade pendant at his waist.
The bright moonlight fell on the two junior brothers, helping them withstand one attack.
After making thorough preparations.
They continued their journey deeper into the Changping Mountains.
“The deeper you go, the thinner the spiritual energy becomes. There are either rare and precious treasures inside, or an extremely difficult monster to deal with.” Xu Nian’s expression was solemn.
A stick of incense passes.
The three of them were almost at Blackwater Pool.
And just then.
Two small purple snakes shot over like lightning.
Fu Qiuyu flicked his wrist, and the spirit sword appeared in his hand, its sword energy surging.
The two small snakes were cut into pieces.
laugh!
The snake's body exploded instantly, releasing a thick purple smoke.
The third senior sister frowned. "This smoke is poisonous. It can confuse the mind and arouse desire. Hold your breath."
She drew her sword and surveyed her surroundings.
Be cautious and careful.
Xu Nian shielded Wu Qinghuan in front of her, sandwiching her between herself and her third senior sister.
Place her in the safest location.
But looking at his junior brother's figure, he vaguely felt that his figure was graceful and charming.
Xu Nian felt a chill run down her spine.
For a moment, it was unclear whether it was the backlash of karmic fire or the venom of the snake acting up.
With a thought, he dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind.
But the next moment, a violent desire rose from his heart and roared over him.
A series of images appeared.
That was Wu Qinghuan, looking charming and lovely, lying on her side on the bed, her fragrant shoulder partially exposed.
It was as if I could smell the alluring fragrance emanating from my junior brother.
Xu Nian frowned.
He shook his head sharply, trying to dispel the thoughts from his mind.
Silently recite the calming mantra.
He couldn't help but wonder if his current state was a result of his cunning junior brother taking revenge on him.
This brat, did he use some kind of trick on me?
But Xu Nian quickly dismissed the idea.
Although my junior brother is wicked, he is still of good character and would not do something so outrageous.
Hmm, probably not...
Just as Xu Nian was pondering, a figure came rushing towards her.
The creature was covered in scales, had a huge fish head, and two very small eyes, only the size of an egg, with a completely black eyeball in its socket.
It has gills on its cheeks.
It looks extremely strange.
Clang!
Fu Qiuyu's expression was cold and stern as he unleashed a sword strike.
The sword light was dazzling.
Intense sparks flew as they were slashed across the massive monster's scales.
"Such tough scales! This isn't the defense of a peak Qi Refining stage beast!" Xu Nian exclaimed in surprise. "It's even stronger than the defense of a peak Foundation Establishment stage demon beast! It's almost at the defense level of a Golden Core stage demon beast!"
At this moment, Fu Qiuyu didn't have time to think about why his junior brother knew so much.
Her expression was very solemn.
Because Xu Nian is absolutely right.
The defensive capabilities of this ferocious creature are comparable to those of a demonic beast at the Golden Core stage!
It's roughly equivalent to the third level of the Golden Core stage.
Fu Qiuyu's cultivation level is the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm.
However, demonic beasts have stronger physiques and blood, and may even possess certain innate supernatural abilities.
This makes it impossible for human cultivators to be a match for demonic beasts at the same cultivation level.
The only option is to join forces to fight against them.
Although the guy in front of him was only at the third level of the Golden Core stage, he was able to withstand Fu Qiuyu's attack, which was at the fifth level of the Golden Core stage, and endured the sword strike.
"What's with his scales? Could it be some kind of innate supernatural ability?"
Fu Qiuyu was deep in thought.
But what happened next left her dumbfounded.
Suddenly, the enormous monster exhaled a large cloud of purple smoke.
It was the smoke from the explosion of those two small snakes.
Poison! More poison!
Stimulate desire!
This type of poison is mostly controlled by the fox clan.
Why would a fish demon be so poisonous?
Xu Nian really wanted to complain.
But now is not the time to complain.
Because just now, Wu Qinghuan and I had been holding our breath and hadn't been breathing.
Seeing such a dense concentration of toxic gas now only gives me a headache.
Senior sister is powerful, with abundant spiritual energy and profound cultivation.
Naturally, they are not afraid of the poison of monsters of the same level.
But Wu Qinghuan was different; his junior brother was already being devoured by karmic fire.
Now we've encountered this poisonous gas that incites desire.
If you inhale a few breaths of that...
Oh no, that would be a huge problem.
Who will help him solve this?
It can't be myself!
