Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 272 Everyone gets what he deserves
In the dark forest, Song Xian descended and took out the two storage bags.

In one of the storage bags, there were tens of thousands of spirit stones, several magic tools, some pills, and talismans, but nothing of particular value. This was the storage bag handed in by the cultivator in the early stage of foundation building.

The other storage bag contained much richer items.

In addition to common things such as spirit stones, magic tools, pills, and talismans, there are also two books on martial arts, one of which is a golden book called Fengyun Liehu Jue.

The other black book is called Tiger Heart and Ghost Soul Technique.

Song Xian flipped through it casually and found that the Fengyun Liehu Jue was a top-grade local martial art.

The Tiger Heart Ghost Skill is much more bizarre. It is a magical power that feeds the heart tiger with one's own body. After it is practiced, it is extremely powerful. However, during this period, there will be great pain. Every once in a while, one needs to feed the heart tiger with one's own flesh and blood.

The big man with a full beard had obviously practiced these two books of martial arts and magical powers.

In addition to the skills, there are two exquisite wooden boxes in the storage bag. One of them contains a crystal clear pearl like white jade. It feels very soft to the touch, like a ball of meat. It is the Rejuvenating Pearl.

Song Xian didn't know that the big man had taken the Anti-aging Pearl, so he was overjoyed when he saw it.

In the other wooden box was a three-foot-long black object that looked like a branch and emitted a strange fragrance.

This is a soul-nourishing tree, and it is also a rare treasure in the world of cultivation.

The soul-nourishing wood is beneficial to cultivators who practice evil techniques, but its most important function is to store the soul, including the cultivator's Nascent Soul, which can be stored inside the body for a long time.

After a cultivator breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, a Nascent Soul will be born in his body. If the physical body dies, the Nascent Soul can survive on its own and can continue to practice after taking over the body of another person.

However, the Nascent Soul cannot survive for too long in the outside world. The Soul-Nourishing Tree is the perfect hiding place for the Nascent Soul. Hiding inside the Soul-Nourishing Tree, the Nascent Soul can exist for a longer time to find a suitable container to take over.

Song Xian's joy was beyond words.

He had not expected that this time his harvest would be so rich. Not only did he obtain the Anti-aging Pearl, but he even obtained a piece of Soul-Nourishing Wood. Either of these two items was an extremely rare treasure in the world of cultivation. If they appeared in Bianxi City again, they would definitely lead to a bloody scramble for it.

But he got it without any effort, it was like he found it in his hands. If others told others about it, they would probably find it hard to believe.

It is no wonder that so many cultivators travel thousands of miles and take huge risks to participate in this Tianlan event. There are indeed many rare treasures in this forbidden area.

After packing up the contents of the two storage bags, Song Xian took two deep breaths and put away his joy. They had not left the forbidden area yet, and danger could come at any time. He had to be cautious at all times. He flipped his hand and took out another concealment talisman, stuck it on himself, and soon his figure disappeared.

He has gained enough benefits during this trip to the forbidden area. Not only did he obtain Zhixuecao, the main ingredient of the Yellow Dragon Pill, which can help him break through the bottleneck of the initial stage of foundation building, but he also obtained Leiyuanmu. Now, he has obtained two treasures, the Rejuvenating Pearl and the Soul-Nourishing Wood, with almost no effort. He is already very satisfied and does not want to take the risk of looking for other treasures in the forbidden area.

This forbidden area is full of dangers, and with his cultivation level and strength, it is not his turn to show off his prowess.

Now he just wanted to find a safe place to hide, not to be discovered by others, and leave here when the forbidden area was reopened.

…………

It was a dark and windy night. In the desolate mountain forest, a beam of light shot down, revealing the figure of a man with a red nose. It was Apu.

As his light of escape descended, he looked around vigilantly.

"Don't look anymore, I'm here." At this time, a low and magnetic voice sounded, and not far to his left, the outline of a figure gradually emerged.

He was a tall and straight man with handsome features. He was obviously a monk from the Muhe grassland, and had reached the late stage of foundation building.

"You're finally here. I thought you were dead."

"I went to get something, so I was delayed a little." Apu responded expressionlessly.

"It's none of my business." The handsome man said coldly, "I only care whether what you said really exists. Can it really remove the mark that old thief left on me?"

"Don't worry, once we get there, I'll definitely be able to remove the mark and set you free."

The man's eyes were firm: "I am risking my life this time. If you dare to play tricks on me, I will kill you first."

"Where's Sarah? Wasn't she with you? Where is she now?"

"I've already taken care of her." The man's expression remained calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter as insignificant as drinking water or eating.

Apu gave him a deep look and said, "Didn't you say we could persuade her to work for us?"

"That woman is as stupid as a pig. I've already tried to test her. It's very dangerous to try to persuade her to rebel. Even if I succeed, if I keep such a fool around, she'll kill me sooner or later. It's better to get rid of her and put an end to it all. She's a replacement for that old thief. He put a lot of effort into her. If she dies, he'll probably be sad for a while."

"Let's go! We don't have much time."

Apu didn't say anything else. After he finished speaking, a light of escape rose up and the two of them left.

…………

From within the gloomy valley, rumbling sounds echoed. Following a sharp cry, a golden peacock flapped its wings, its body radiating a multicolored glow.

Not far away, a black peacock monster fell to the ground, surrounded by five-colored light, as if it was bound by ropes.

The black peacock monster kept struggling, but to no avail. After a while, the monster finally stopped moving, and no one knew whether it was dead or fainted.

The golden peacock flapped its wings and came to the front of the black peacock. Its body shape changed, and the next moment it turned into a man, who was Han Yuan.

He looked at the black blood flowing on the black peacock's body and frowned slightly. Then he looked around and sat down cross-legged in front of the black peacock. He made seals with his hands in a strange posture, closed his eyes slightly, and muttered something. A faint golden light emanated from his body.

As the words he chanted became more and more complex, the golden light became brighter and brighter, and finally condensed into a golden peacock.

The golden peacock pecked down at the black peacock's neck. The black blood in the black peacock's body seemed to be drawn towards the golden peacock.

At this time, Han Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, also swallowed as if drinking water.

Not until all the blood in the black peacock's body was sucked out did the golden peacock turn into specks of golden light and return to Han Yuan's body.

At this time, Han Yuan opened his eyes, and his pupils turned golden, extremely cold, without a trace of emotion.

After a long time, the golden pupils gradually faded and returned to their original appearance. Han Yuan then stood up and strode forward.

.........

Song Xian sneaked all the way and came to a remote black jungle. He saw a cave covered by vines in front of him.

He then lifted the vines and walked into the cave, intending to hide there and wait until the ban was reopened before returning to Tianlan Mountain.

The cave was pitch black, yet deeper than he had imagined. As he advanced, he suddenly heard a rustling sound, and numerous black silkworm monsters emerged from all directions, surrounding him.

Dozens of black silkworms rushed towards him along the stone wall, and when they opened their mouths, streams of black mucus shot out.

Song Xian originally just wanted to find a quiet place to hide, but he accidentally stumbled into the monster's lair.

Seeing the black silkworms surrounding him from all directions, he immediately formed seals with his hands, and the fire-attributed spiritual power in his body gathered to form a huge flame shield, wrapping him inside. The flames on it flowed like waves, like a rotating ring of fire, which was the second-level intermediate grade Fire Flow Shield.

A lot of black slime shot out and hit the fire cover.

Song Xian formed seals with his hands again, unleashing waves of fire, which surged towards the surrounding monsters.

Those silkworm monsters secreted white fluid from their bodies to wrap themselves up and resist the impact of the fire wave.

At this moment, a shrill growl was heard.

In the distance, a huge black silkworm emerged.

The black insect was about three or four feet in size and was approaching him at an extremely fast speed.

When Song Xian saw this, he was shocked. He didn't expect that there was a foundation-building monster in this nest.

He immediately stepped back, but the monster followed closely, as if it had an irreconcilable hatred with him.

The two sides retreated from the cave one after another. The monster opened its mouth and spat out a meter-long stream of black mucus, which sprayed onto the fire shroud.

The blazing flames and the black mucus intertwined like the fusion of water and fire. The circle of flames gradually twisted and deformed, and the black mucus gradually melted under the wrapping of the flames.

When the silkworm monster was spewing mucus, Song Xian had already put his hands together and circulated the spiritual power throughout his body.

The fire-attributed spiritual power between heaven and earth rushed towards him madly, forming a vortex like a black hole above him.

This is the second-level medium-grade Yang Explosion technique.

After the huge red sphere condensed, it shot towards the second-level monster, and wherever it passed, a raging fire ignited.

The silkworm monster continued to attack with black mucus, like a black arrow hitting the red ball.

With a loud bang, flames burst out from the inside of the red ball, transforming into numerous fireballs. The flames rippled like waves, transforming into a sea of ​​fire.

The black slime melted after a short while in the raging flames, and fireballs flew towards the silkworms like meteors.

Black light burst out from the monster's body, forming a black barrier.

The fireballs hit the black barrier, shattering one after another.

Inside the cave, many black silkworms also rushed out to help.

The foundation-building silkworm monster let out a sharp cry, and at the same time, the low-level silkworm monsters also opened their mouths and screamed.

Visible sound waves surged in like a tidal wave.

Those split fireballs shattered under the attack of sound waves, and the sound waves were like a vast ocean, coming one wave after another.

Song Xian looked solemn. He flipped his hand and held a green second-grade medium-grade defensive talisman in his palm. As the talisman shone brightly, a green round shield condensed around his body.

The overwhelming sound waves hit the blue light shield. The light shield first trembled, and then twisted and deformed visibly. It seemed that it could not hold on for long.

While it could still hold on for a while, Song Xian put his hands together, and five palm-sized flames suddenly appeared around the silkworm monster. In the blink of an eye, the flames instantly grew larger, connecting head to tail, forming a huge circle of flames, wrapping up the foundation-building monster.

This is the second-level intermediate grade spell, Flame Siege.

The black barrier condensed around the silkworm's body had been almost shattered after being attacked by many fireballs. At this time, it was surrounded by a huge sea of ​​fire. Under the blazing flames, the barrier quickly shattered, and the area within the flame circle was suddenly a sea of ​​fire, completely submerging the monster.

At this time, the round shield of green light covering Song Xian's body was shattered under the overwhelming sound wave attack. The sound waves hit the fire cover wave after wave, and it seemed that the fire cover would not last long.

He once again took out a second-grade medium-grade defensive talisman to protect himself. At the same time, he cast the Fiery Siege, but this time it was not aimed at the Foundation Establishment Monster, but at the Qi Refining Silkworm Monsters.

Although these monsters are not strong individually, when they unite, they are a force that cannot be underestimated. We need to eliminate them first so that we can concentrate on dealing with the foundation-building monster.

Five palm-sized flames appeared around the low-level monsters and instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire. Most of the silkworm monsters were enveloped in the sea of ​​fire.

On this side, Song Xian was attacked by a huge sound wave.

On the other side, the silkworm leader was engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

Under the overwhelming sound wave attacks, the fire shield around Song Xian was also shattered and finally blocked by the defensive light shield condensed by the talisman.

The silkworm leader was in a sea of ​​fire, his whole body wrapped in a white substance, which was the white fluid secreted by his body. The white fluid wrapped around his body and solidified into a white substance.

Seeing the monster tied up in the white object, Song Xian's mind moved, and the Netherworld Cold Flame in his body broke out, condensed between his palms, and shot towards the monster. In an instant, the bone-chilling cold spread.

Wherever the palm-sized Netherworld Cold Flame passed, everything around it condensed into frost.

The silkworm leader was still wrapped in the white substance, resisting the scorching flames.

It didn't realize the danger until the Netherworld Cold Flame shot towards it.

The original sea of ​​fire turned into frost, and the flames were covered by ice.

The Netherworld Cold Flame directly hit the white object, and the dark green flame immediately burst into flames, quickly covering the white object and wrapping the monster inside.

Under the burning of the dark green flame, the white object gradually melted away visibly. Seeing this, the monster finally panicked and secreted more white fluids from its body to cover itself. However, under the wrapping of the dark cold flame, the white object melted away before long, and the dark green flame directly devoured the silkworm.

The monster let out a shrill scream and kept rolling its body around under the cold flames of the underworld. Its flesh and blood melted visibly under the burning of the dark green flames.

Seeing that the monster had no strength left to struggle and was dying, Song Xian activated the Xuantian Ronghuo Jue technique and a ball of red light condensed in his palm.

The dark green flames that enveloped the monster immediately broke away from it and swarmed into the red light ball, like a child swarming into its mother's arms.
