Let the scourge go to the right path, and you make games to reward them?.

Chapter 153 Weird Place (25)

They quickly integrated into a team. Lin Yuan, Shangguan Zhi and Zhang Ting formed a three-person team and then headed in the assigned direction.

One hundred disciples may seem like a lot, but they are scattered across this vast plain, like sand blending into the desert, and will dissipate if you’re not careful.

As far as the eye can see, it's all green here. Huge watermelons are growing in the watermelon fields, like an endless sea of ​​watermelons.

The cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage cannot use magic power to lift themselves, but their physical fitness is three times that of ordinary people. The three of them moved forward like arrows in the melon field.

As they walk, they create glowing illusions behind them, which will mark their tracks. Once an accident occurs, others can follow the marks of corresponding colors and provide rescue.

The nearby melon fields are so huge that it makes people wonder how the people in Shennong Valley managed this place.

Looking into the distance, the whole world is green. The only black color is the stripes of the watermelons, which look like snakes wandering in the watermelon field.

After finally walking out of the melon field, Zhang Ting covered her mouth and said, "Looking at watermelons for too long makes me feel sick. I don't want to eat watermelons for a while."

Shangguan Zhi's expression was not very good either: "Me too, I keep looking at watermelons and I feel like I have become a watermelon."

Lin Yuan glanced at the two of them and felt that young people nowadays seemed unable to endure hardship.

But if you think about it again, it’s normal.

Although they all looked like cultivators who had achieved some success in Qi training, they were essentially still seventeen-year-old boys who had never experienced anything like this.

Climbing a snowy mountain may cause snow blindness, and looking at watermelons too much may cause green blindness.

When you get here, the terrain is no longer flat.

A huge lake stretches across here, with seamless terrain on all sides. The surface of the lake is calm and peaceful, like a mirror.

After getting closer, Lin Yuan drew out the talisman and injected magic power into it. His eyes immediately became much clearer.

He had become very proficient in the art of observing qi. After performing it, he immediately saw a layer of hazy light all around him, and could detect some hidden dangers.

After looking around and finding that there was no particular danger, they slowly approached the lake until they reached the side of it.

The water here is quite clear, but no one knows where it comes from. If you look down, you can see some almost transparent fish swaying in the lake.

After confirming that there was no danger, Lin Yuan flicked his sword and a fish was hit and flew out. It landed on the grass and continued to bounce.

Shangguan Zhize picked up the small fish, looked at them carefully for a while and praised: "Good stuff."

"Do you know him?" Zhang Ting asked curiously.

"This fish is called Canglan fish. Its body is almost transparent and you can hardly see it when it swims in the water. However, its meat is delicious. It costs twenty spirit seeds for one in the market and it is often hard to find. The method of slaughtering this fish is quite special and its internal organs are easily broken. If you are not careful, the taste will be ruined. Let me do it."

Shangguan Zhi skillfully cut open the belly of the Canglan fish and began to remove the internal organs in an orderly manner.

Although it was almost transparent, Shangguan Zhi seemed to have eyes on his hands, and he easily took out the fragile internal organs without leaving any behind.

Looking at Shangguan Zhi's current appearance, Lin Yuan and Zhang Ting both felt that he was too virtuous.

After cleaning the fish in the lake, he threw it to Zhang Ting: "It's fine now. Although it's better to use charcoal fire, it's also OK to roast it with magic. What are you standing there for? Let's get started."

"Why not let Lin Yuan do it?" Zhang Ting asked puzzledly.

"You are the most useless here. If you don't play a little role quickly, what else do you want to do!" Shangguan Zhi shouted dissatisfiedly, "We are a team, you don't want to fall behind."

After mumbling a few words, Zhang Ting still produced a spark from his fingertips. Under the effect of the magic, the Canglan fish in his hand was roasted in an instant, emitting a rich fragrance.

Shangguan Zhi first tore off a piece of fish and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully for a while, and then said: "The taste is okay, but without salt and seasoning, it's a bit monotonous overall. Lin Yuan, next time you come to my house, I'll grill it specially for you." Looking at Shangguan Zhi's attentive eyes, Lin Yuan always felt that the other party had bad intentions.

But when he thought about it carefully, he didn't know what the other party wanted from him.

After tasting the fish, he found that it was indeed quite good, with a fresh taste and tender meat. It was still delicious even without salt.

After sharing a fish, Lin Yuan looked at the lake.

With the help of the Qi-gazing technique, he saw that the lake was filled with a large number of Canglan fish. If they caught all of them, they would be enough to eat for a long time.

At this moment, he discovered that Wang Jiu and the other foundation-building cultivators had planned this in advance.

Letting them learn the art of qi-gazing is for this moment.

In addition, there should be different tests in other links. The whole process seems to be designed to allow them to verify what they have learned. It is an alternative preaching competition.

At this moment, Lin Yuan discovered that the foundation-building cultivators of Wanfa Sect also seemed a little mean.

After marking the illusion here, the three of them started to return according to the time.

As soon as we left the lake, we found that the weather on the lake was unpredictable. It was sunny just now, but suddenly it was covered with dark clouds.

Dark clouds continued to circle in the sky, like a black dragon stretching across the sky, making the surroundings suddenly dark.

Then, hailstones the size of heads fell from the sky, as densely packed as raindrops, hitting the lake in front of them hard.

Even though they were far away, Lin Yuan and the others could still see this doomsday-like scene, which lasted for a whole incense stick of time.

As the lake filled up with massive amounts of hail, the dark clouds overhead quickly dissipated, revealing a clear sky behind.

Looking at the lake full of hail, Zhang Ting couldn't help but say, "The climate here is really strange."

"Yes, the weather changes suddenly without any sign. What are Wang Jiu and the others thinking?" Shangguan Zhi said puzzledly.

Lin Yuan looked at the lake in front of him filled with hail, and inspiration began to accumulate.

There were no problems on the way back, but after arriving at the camp, Lin Yuan found that the situation here was not very good.

There was no hail here, but the morale of the entire camp was low. Many disciples had sad brows, as if something bad had happened to them.

Seeing Lin Yuan and the others coming back, Xue Cheng stood up and said with a wry smile: "Chief Lin, you are back."

Bowing to Xue Cheng, Lin Yuan discovered that there were more than a dozen beds made of hay here, and more than a dozen disciples were lying on the beds with different wounds on different parts of their bodies.

If it is an ordinary wound, it is okay to stop the bleeding with surgery and then ensure nutrition.

However, a layer of black mist was wrapped around the wounds of these wounded soldiers, moving back and forth on the wounds like a poisonous snake.

Squatting down, Lin Yuan picked up a wisp of black mist and felt that the black mist was a bit similar to Dao Jue, but the concentration was much weaker.

Using his magic power to dispel the black mist, Lin Yuan asked in confusion: "What happened to them?"

"I was hit by my own shadow."

"……Um?"
