Chapter 247 Sword Slashing Fire Toad Beast

Inner Valley.

At the bottom of a cliff over a thousand feet high, three figures walked out of a cave.

I saw a giant ring floating in the air, and the light falling from it formed a protective spiritual shield that enveloped Qi Yuan and the other two.

Qi Yuan looked up and saw a little surprise on his face. In front of him was a huge mountain range with countless large and small mountains. The view was extremely broad...

He said to the two people behind him: "We have arrived at Neigu."

Then he pointed at the Yin Ring and put the Liang Yi Ring into the storage bag.

Nan Longhou took the initiative to step forward and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your help, Brother Man, otherwise we would not be able to enter the inner valley."

"Helping you is helping me." Qi Yuan said calmly.

At this time, Lu Weiying trembled and said, "Aren't there too many space cracks here? And they can move automatically. It's terrible."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked up.

They saw in the void hundreds of feet away from them, there were faintly a dozen feet long things, like white light, floating slowly.

It is the dreaded space crack.

Nan Longhou sucked in a breath of cold air, his expression extremely unpleasant, and said: "This is an ancient battlefield, so there will be more space cracks than outside. As long as we follow the route on the map, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"The space cracks will move, so it's not advisable to stay here for long."

Qi Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Brother Man is right, let's go quickly." Lu Weiying said hurriedly.

Nanlong Hou narrowed his eyes slightly, took the initiative to walk forward, and nimbly avoided the space cracks visible to the naked eye.

Lu Weiying took a deep breath, stepped on his toes, and slowly floated up.

Qi Yuan looked back at the Beiji Mountain. The most precious thing about this mountain was not the silver sand, but the mountain itself.

But it’s too early to think about the Arctic Mountain now, so just leave it here.

The figure flashed and quickly caught up with the two people in front.

During this period, the three of them encountered no less than three places with strong forbidden fluctuations, where the spiritual energy was chaotic, the mysteries were vague, and it was impossible to explore with spiritual consciousness.

Qi Yuan speculated that this might be the place where an ancient monk fell.

However, the restricted areas were surrounded by space cracks, and there was not enough time to break the ancient restrictions.

So the three of them gave up the idea.

The flight takes about half a day.

Nanlong Hou, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and looked at the two hills in front of him with an uncertain expression, without saying a word.

Calculating the time, it’s time to encounter the flying purple-striped scorpion.

Qi Yuan knew everything and immediately guessed the general situation.

At this moment, Nanlong Hou must be having a headache, frantically trying to find a way to deal with a dozen flying purple-striped scorpions.

"Sir, is there something wrong with these two mountains?" Lu Weiying looked at the two ordinary mountains and asked in a strange tone.

Nan Longhou sighed, his face melancholy, and said: "Everyone, we are in big trouble. If we want to reach our destination, we need to pass through the two hills in front of us. The hill on the right is full of space cracks. Going in will almost mean death. There are very few space cracks on the left, but the hill is occupied by more than a dozen flying purple-striped scorpions. They are all very ferocious and are not monsters that we can defeat."

"Purple-striped scorpion? Is it the kind of vicious insect that appeared once in Wangshui Country and wiped out all the monks of Lanhai Sect in one go?"

Lu Weiying's expression suddenly changed and he cried out in a lost voice.

"Yes, it is that poisonous insect. Moreover, each of the flying scorpions here is more than ten times more powerful than the purple-striped scorpions that appeared in Wangshui Country. They have almost lived here for more than tens of thousands of years, and their entire bodies have turned dark purple."

Nanlong Hou sighed and continued.

The stronger the strength, the darker the color of the Flying Purple Scorpion will be.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan showed a hint of shock.

After all, being too calm will attract attention.

The flying purple-striped scorpion is ranked fourteenth on the list of strange insects, and is an ancient strange insect that is almost right next to the gold-eating insect.

Although this insect is very famous, it is extremely difficult for it to lay eggs and reproduce, so the number of its species has always been small, and it cannot have an advantage in numbers, and naturally it cannot compete with the gold-eating insect.

Although they do not have the unique ability of the gold-eating beetles to devour everything, their shells are almost as hard as those of the gold-eating beetles, and they are difficult to be damaged by swords, knives, or magic weapons. They also have wings on their backs, can escape as fast as the wind, and are highly poisonous.

These alone are enough to make them rank so high on the list of strange insects.

The purple-striped scorpion in the hill ahead has been in the Demon Valley for more than tens of thousands of years and has already advanced to its final dark purple mature form.

Everyone is well aware of how terrifying his strength is.

The strength of a mature purple-striped scorpion has at least reached the late Nascent Soul stage.

If there were only two or three purple-striped scorpions, Nanlong Hou and his men would be confident that they could use their magical powers to escape and get rid of them, but there were more than a dozen mature flying purple-striped scorpions.

As long as the three of them stepped into the top of the mountain, they could crush the people into pieces, so it was no wonder that Nanlong Hou had a worried look on his face and Lu Weiying looked frightened.

However, the Ten Deadly Poisonous Green Pigeons obtained from the Cang Kun Ruins can lure away the Flying Purple-Striped Scorpion.

Lu Weiying said with a look of despair: "We can't go any further, are we going to go back the way we came?"

"Neither you nor I are willing to give up halfway. How about...we go fight the flying purple-striped scorpion?"

Nanlong Hou said tentatively, glancing at Qi Yuan.

Lu Weiying immediately shook his head, his eyes filled with fear, and said, "No, the purple-striped scorpion is too scary. I absolutely do not agree to provoke them."

"Brother Lu disagrees, what do you think, Brother Man?"

Nanlong Hou looked at Qi Yuan and said.

Qi Yuan smiled, reached for the storage bag, opened his palm, and placed a small green bottle in the palm. He said, "You two should have heard of the Bijiu, one of the ten deadly poisons. With its toxicity, it can definitely attract the Flying Purple Scorpion."

In fact, if he could tame a dozen mature flying purple-striped scorpions and use them for his own purposes, that would be a force that could sweep across the southern part of the country.

However, Qi Yuan felt that it was a bit too risky to covet a dozen mature flying purple-striped scorpions with a mid-Nascent Soul stage.

So I just gave up the idea for the time being.

It won’t be too late to make plans after your cultivation has improved further.

Anyway, the space cracks in the Demon Valley will become relatively stable after a few decades, so he can afford to wait.

"Ten Deadly Poisons? I've seen them in ancient books. I heard that they are all extremely poisonous. Even if we, the immortal cultivators, are poisoned by them, we may die immediately."

Lu Weiying said in surprise.

Nan Longhou was excited and said, "Okay, with the help of Brother Man's Ten Deadly Poisons, we have hope of getting over the top of the mountain."

"The poison is already there. I wonder how you two plan to lure away the flying purple-striped scorpion."

Qi Yuan asked the two of them back, he had already provided the poison, so it was impossible for him to provide a way to attract more than a dozen mature monsters.

How can there be a business that keeps making unilateral losses?

Nan Longhou frowned and said, "I have a few good pets, but they are not good at moving speed, so it is difficult for them to distance themselves from the flying purple-striped scorpion." "Forget it, I have a magic weapon with good speed here, use it to attract the flying purple-striped scorpion."

Lu Weiying's face was filled with pain. He slapped his storage bag, a light flashed, and a white flying boat magic weapon appeared in his hand.

Because no magic power was injected into it, its appearance remained about an inch in size, but the spiritual patterns on the magic weapon looked mysterious and complex, and the aura of wind attribute was also very strong.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is not a simple magic weapon.

Nan Longhou's eyes were slightly shocked: "Brother Lu, this Sun Chasing Boat is your treasure..."

"Hehe, since you know that this is my treasure, can you be flexible when we divide the treasures later?"

Lu Weiying was not stupid either, and he took the opportunity to demand more opportunities.

Nanlong Hou did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to look at Qi Yuan.

Two old foxes, they are obviously in the same boat, but they still put on a show for others to see.

Qi Yuan sneered in his heart, but the value of the flying boat was indeed great, and if he disagreed, the relationship would seem awkward, so he nodded slightly.

Then he threw the Ten Deadly Poisons to Lu Weiying.

Lu Weiying did not hesitate when he got the Ten Deadly Poisons. He poured all the poison in the green bottle into the flying boat. Then he formed a seal with one hand and input mana into the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat.

The Sun-Chasing Flying Boat suddenly grew larger and with a whoosh it flew off at high speed in a certain direction.

Not long after, the flying purple-striped scorpion on the top of the mountain heard the news and moved. For a moment, demonic energy rose to the sky and released a powerful breath.

More than a dozen dark purple rainbows flashed out and fled towards the direction of the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat.

Nan Longhou took a look and calmed down. He said in a happy tone, "This is a rare opportunity. Let's go quickly. The Sun Chasing Flying Boat won't last long without continuous input of mana."

As soon as the words fell, the figure disappeared.

Qi Yuan held the sword in both hands and fled away, turning into a startling rainbow.

Lu Weiying prayed in his heart, hoping that the Flying Purple-Striped Scorpion would not cause too much damage to his Sun-Chasing Flying Boat. After all, he was planning to retrieve the flying magic weapon afterwards.

He had reinforced this important life-saving weapon countless times.

Soon after, a huge red peak about several thousand feet high appeared in front of the three people. Most of the mountain peak was directly inserted into the fiery red clouds in the sky, so compared with some of the surrounding shorter hills, this huge peak was particularly eye-catching.

Nan Longhou, who was leading the way, saw the giant peak and paused. He said with a smile, "I was able to avoid the flying purple-striped scorpion without any danger, all thanks to the great help of the two Taoist friends."

"Although the Ten Deadly Poisons are precious, they are not as good as Fellow Daoist Lu's flying magic weapon."

Qi Yuan said nonchalantly.

Because he had a lot of Ten Deadly Poisonous Green Pigeons in his storage bag, he didn't have to worry about consumption.

Lu Weiying's face twitched when he heard this. He knew the hardness of the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat, but he didn't have much confidence that it could survive under the siege of more than a dozen flying purple-striped scorpions.

It would be perfect to have a rough shell, and then we can find materials to repair it.

Nan Longhou changed the subject and said, "My two Taoist friends, there is a fire toad beast lurking in a cave under the mountain ahead. According to the map, there is a remains of an ancient monk inside. I believe there are many ancient treasures in the cave. This monster has a strong sense. We must be careful to avoid alerting it in advance."

After Nanlong Hou deliberately diverted the attention, Lu Weiying's attention was diverted and his spiritual consciousness spread.

Qi Yuan also released his spiritual sense to explore the bottom of the mountain, and sure enough, he found a fiery red cave entrance, and hot air was constantly blowing out.

Nan Longhou went on to say, "Almost half of the Fire Toad's lair is built in lava. No matter how seriously injured the beast is, as long as it jumps into the lava, it will immediately recover. For this reason, I specially prepared a set of water-attributed formations to trap it."

"Okay, then your Excellency, quickly set up the formation. Fellow Daoist Man and I will go in and lure the Fire Toad Beast out." Lu Weiying said slowly.

This was exactly what Nanlong Hou wanted, so he did not refuse and immediately started to set up the formation.

Lu Weiying smiled and said, "Brother Man, let's go too."

"Hmm!" Qi Yuan's eyes moved slightly, and he flew into the fiery red cave with Lu Weiying.

Soon after.

A huge red toad chased Qi Yuan and the others. The monster was three meters wide and five or six meters long. Its skin was bright red, and from time to time a layer of dazzling fire clouds emerged, making it look mysterious.

As the fire toad beast entered the pre-arranged formation.

Lu Weiying immediately shouted, "My Lord, please act quickly."

Immediately afterwards, a turquoise light flashed, and a water-attributed formation rose slowly. Layers of water ripples trapped the Fire Toad Beast, blocking its way.

The fire toad beast croaked, a hint of coldness revealed in its eyes, and it opened its mouth and spewed out a powerful fireball, which shot towards the formation.

boom!
The azure blue and fiery red colors created a large area of ​​light, with bursts of spiritual light and continuous exploding sounds.

"My two Taoist friends, quickly kill the Fire Toad Beast. I will control the formation to help you."

The voice of Nanlong Hou was heard.

Lu Weiying immediately made a hand gesture and waved his sleeve, and a ray of light shot out. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a small black sword with a faint glow, which was quite strange.

With a swish, the black sword cut a long wound on the fire toad beast, and hot blood flowed out.

The fire toad screamed in pain, and a red light flashed at the wound. The long sword wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Immortal body!

Lu Weiying was secretly surprised.

Qi Yuan snorted coldly, and the scabbard flew off at a rapid speed. The three-foot-long sword burst out with golden spiritual energy. The sword energy continued to gather, and with a flick of his wrist, he slashed out a sword beam more than ten feet long and killed towards the head of the fire toad beast.

"Such a dangerous sword energy." Lu Weiying said with a shocked look.

A fiery red spiritual shield also burst out from the Fire Toad Beast's body. It suddenly jumped and dodged to the side.

Unexpectedly, the golden sword light seemed to have a spirit and started to rotate.

A sword slashed on the fire toad beast spirit shield.

The sword vibrates and makes thundering sounds.

The Fire Toad Beast then made a provocative gesture because its Fire Spirit Shield was still intact.

The void suddenly flashed, and several ice-type pink-blue flames appeared out of thin air. When they fell on the fiery red spiritual shield, there was a crackling sound, and the rich ice attribute easily broke through the fire toad beast's defense.

Qi Yuan seized the opportunity, his figure flashed, and the sword in his hand was unsheathed again. A sharp golden sword light flashed, and the sword light quickly swept across the fire toad beast.

The monster's head suddenly fell off, and a stream of thick blood spurted out of its headless body, staining the earth.

The sword light twisted the fire toad beast's head into a pool of rotten meat, leaving only a fire-attributed demon pill in place.

The demon pill of the immortal ancient beast.

Nanlong Hou jumped out immediately, his eyes showing a hint of heat. After all, they had all witnessed the magical powers of the fire toad beast with their own eyes, and who knows what kind of magical power is contained in the magic pill?

However, the Fire Toad Beast was killed by Qi Yuan the whole time, and the two of them didn’t seem to have made much of a contribution, so they didn’t rush to grab it at the first opportunity.

Qi Yuan sucked the Fire Toad Beast Demon Pill with one hand and said, "I'll take the Demon Pill. The other materials from the Fire Toad Beast will be divided among the two Taoist friends. If there is any shortage, use Spirit Stones to make up for it."

Nanlong Hou and Lu Weiying looked at each other and could only agree with a forced smile.

Then the three of them flew into the cave and saw the remains of a body in a green robe...
