Volume 2 The Eighteen States Are Shaking The Wind and Rain Chapter 62
Sandang Pass is located on the hillside of Xiangshan Mountain, with towering cliffs on both sides. There is only one road in the middle that can be walked, and Sandang Pass is in the middle of this road. There is a large open space in front of the pass, and there is no danger to defend it.
Over the past hundreds of years, countless corpses have fallen in this open space. If you stand on the door and look down carefully, you will find that the soil in this open space is not yellow, but a faint red, as if it has been soaked in blood.
of red.
"Deng, Deng, Deng." A rapid knock on the door interrupted Susu's thoughts. Ning Xiaochuan suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Come in."
I saw Nie Hongyi walking into the house with three pheasants in her hand, "Sir, there's something going on."
Looking at Nie Hongyi's expression, Ning Xiaochuan subconsciously sat up and pushed Song Jing, who was snoring next to him. Song Jing was still a little confused and wiped the corner of his mouth, "What's wrong, what's wrong, what happened.
"
Nie Hongyi put the pheasant aside, "This Fragrant Mountain has a unique cave..."
…
The mountain breeze at night was still very cold, and the maple leaves were rustling. In the mountain forest, Ning Xiaochuan, Song Jing, and Nie Hongyi walked through the dense forest, turning left and right, and finally stopped in front of an ancient pine.
This ancient pine has lush branches and leaves, and the thick trunk is probably not enough for three adults to hug it. Ning Xiaochuan clicked his tongue and sighed: "This tree is too exaggerated."
Song Jing stared at the ancient pine and murmured after a long time: "This tree is at least a thousand years old. It's not easy. It's not easy to find a thousand-year-old tree now. If this tree is cut down, you can buy it for at least a thousand pieces of gold in Yindu."
"Is it so valuable?" Ning Xiaochuan sighed, "By the way, Miss Nie, you are not talking about this tree, are you?"
Nie Hongyi nodded, "This is the tree. Master, seniors, have you noticed that there are maple forests on Fragrant Mountain, but only pine trees appear here, and they are still ancient pine trees that are thousands of years old. Don't you think it's strange?"
These words reminded Ning Xiaochuan, "Yes, Old Songtou, it is a bit strange for a thousand-year-old pine to appear in this place full of maple trees."
"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Pine trees are different from maple trees. Pine trees are towering into the sky, and this is especially true for thousand-year-old pine trees. It is said that a tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, but this tree is safe and sound. There is only one possibility for such a strange behavior."
Song Jing looked at the ground, "There is something that has been protecting this pine tree, and that can keep it safe and healthy for thousands of years. This thing must be underground."
Nie Hongyi nodded and raised her hand to Song Jing, "Senior, Young Master, I just found a group of pheasants gathering here and eating this tree, so I guess there must be something underneath this tree."
Ning Xiaochuan walked slightly under the tree. Sure enough, there were obvious peck marks around the roots of the pine tree, as well as some licking marks.
Ning Xiaochuan slowly stretched out his hand and rubbed the peck marks, then smelled his fingers, and a strange fragrance came to his nostrils, which was rich and strange.
After smelling it, Ning Xiaochuan instantly felt his heart beat faster, his Dantian also became restless, and the true energy in his body moved uncontrollably.
"Old Songtou, smell it quickly, this tree is a bit strange." Ning Xiaochuan shouted.
Song Jing hurried over and used the same method. After smelling it, he was instantly overjoyed and slapping his thighs excitedly, "Oh, when you smell the Dantian moving, you can smell the true energy carefully. Isn't this the soul-fixing incense?"
"What? Soul-fixing incense, senior, you...are you talking about Soul-fixing incense?" Nie Hongyi was also extremely excited.
As a martial artist, you naturally know how beneficial the soul-fixing incense is to martial practitioners. Let’s put it this way, with the soul-fixing incense, the energy you accumulate in a year can be accumulated in only one month. It can be seen that this soul-fixing incense
How powerful the fragrance is.
It is precisely this that has caused the demand for the soul-fixing incense to exceed the supply for thousands of years, so that it completely disappeared three hundred years ago, and there is no trace anymore. The lack of soul-fixing incense to assist in cultivation is why there are very few masters in the Great Feng Shen Soul Realm today.
An important reason.
Without the Soul-fixing Incense to assist in training, it would be difficult for ordinary people to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
Song Jing was so excited that she almost burst into tears, "It's great. With the soul-fixing incense, I...I have hope of returning to the spiritual realm."
Ning Xiaochuan was also greatly surprised. This soul-fixing incense that had disappeared for three hundred years appeared in front of him. This was incredible. Who would have thought that there would be such heavenly soul-fixing incense under a pine tree in Xiangshan Mountain?
Treasures of materials and land.
"Old Song, please don't get excited. This soul-fixing incense is at the root of the pine tree. How should we take it out?" Ning Xiaochuan said, supporting Song Jing.
Song Jing took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, patted the ground and said, "It's really not easy to do. This pine tree has grown for thousands of years with the help of the soul-fixing incense. It is estimated that it has taken root in the ground for tens of meters. Dig the tree to get the incense."
That is unrealistic. Not only will it be a waste of natural resources, but it is also very likely to destroy the soul-fixing incense."
"What do you mean, senior, there is nothing we can do?" Nie Hongyi said with some reluctance. Seeing that the soul-fixing incense was right in front of her but could not be used for her own purposes, she felt very aggrieved just thinking about it.
Song Jing thought carefully for a while, then looked at Ning Xiaochuan and said, "There is a way, luck can make the difference."
"Luck matters?" Ning Xiaochuan looked at Song Jing doubtfully, a little confused.
"Later, I will use my true energy to send it underground through the tree trunks to force the soul-fixing incense out. I haven't recovered much strength, so I will take as much as I can with the soul-fixing incense." Song Jing frowned and said.
"Old Songtou, let's go together. Miss Nie and I can also help." Ning Xiaochuan suggested.
Song Jing shook his head and frowned and said, "It is not good if the true energy is too chaotic. It can easily destroy the soul-fixing incense. It's up to me. This soul-fixing incense is a top-grade treasure. If I force it out, there will definitely be a smell.
When the air is diffused, although there are no powerful monsters in this forest, there are many wild beasts, and there are traces of large wild beasts moving around here. Miss Nie, I will leave it to you later."
Nie Hongyi cupped her hand, "Senior, don't worry, I will definitely protect Dinghunxiang."
After saying this, Nie Hongyi drew her sword and stood in front of Song Jing. Her true energy overflowed and enveloped the small space. Ning Xiaochuan did the same, cautiously standing beside Song Jing to help Song Jing protect the law.
I saw Song Jing sitting cross-legged on the ground, chanting strange incantations in his mouth, his hands full of zhenqi, a six-ray light array slowly appeared on the tree trunk, and then, with a muffled sound, Song Jing's whole body exuded a golden aura, golden
The true energy was being transported underground at a speed visible to the naked eye, while Song Jing closed her eyes tightly and remained silent.
Not long after, the familiar fragrance came from the peck marks on the tree trunk. The fragrance filled the air. Nie Hongyi tried her best to wrap up the smell and prevent it from spreading. However, this soul-fixing fragrance was heavenly.
Treasure, the fragrance cannot be completely locked in.
Ning Xiaochuan smelled the aroma, and this time the Dantian in his body fluctuated again, and the true energy circulated. He quickly activated his mental skills, and the true energy circulated at an incredibly fast speed, more than ten times faster than his usual practice speed.
"Boom!"
There was a commotion on the ground, rocks shaking, dead branches tumbling, and something was rushing toward them crazily.
"Five boys, collect the soul-fixing incense quickly." Song Jing said sharply.
Ning Xiaochuan leaned over and looked, and sure enough, at the peck mark, a drop of purple liquid slowly flowed out. Ning Xiaochuan knew that this was the soul-fixing incense, so he took Song Jing's wine gourd, put it against the tree, and stared at it intently.
Soul-fixing fragrance.
"Ding dong!"
As a clear voice sounded, Ning Xiaochuan smiled with satisfaction, "Old Songtou, we did it."
Seeing her precious gourd, Song Jing said dissatisfiedly, "You brat, what are you trying to show off? My precious gourd, what did you... what did you ask me to drink with during this trip..."
As soon as his words faded away, a giant tiger rushed over with its bloody mouth open.
"Ouch..."
Ning Xiaochuan was shocked by this huge beast. The tiger was at least three meters long. If he took one bite of it from his mouth, his head would turn into meat.
"boom!"
However, the moment the tiger rushed over, a burst of red energy hit the tiger heavily. The tiger fell directly to the side due to the force, and broke four or five maple trees before stopping.
Nie Hongyi frowned, "This tiger is a striking white-browed tiger. It is not an ordinary tiger. It already has a trace of spiritual consciousness. However, the places where beasts with spiritual consciousness can usually be cultivated are the primitive dense forests. How can Xiangshan nourish this kind of tiger?"
This kind of thing."
Song Jing said while channeling his energy, "Eighty percent of it is because of this. When I was traveling, I heard that there was a tiger in Xiangshan that hurt people, and it should be the one in front of me.
This tiger is able to cultivate to this level probably because of the soul-fixing incense. It seems that we have invaded someone else's territory today."
"Ding dong!" After another drop, Ning Xiaochuan frowned and said, "There is a lot of soul-fixing fragrance under this tree. It's so stingy that I can't give you any."
"You think the tiger is a human, and I'm still discussing it with you here." Song Jing said angrily, "How much, I'm almost exhausted."
"It's so fast. It's not even half a gourd yet." Ning Xiaochuan shook the wine gourd and shook his head.
Song Jing looked at Ning Xiaochuan helplessly, "You guys think it's easy for me, forget it, half a gourd is enough, let's go."
"Roar!"
The eye-catching white-browed tiger swooped over again, its speed was indeed a bit surprising.
"boom."
Nie Hongyi rushed out again, holding the sword horizontally, but this time the result was different. Nie Hongyi was directly shaken away, and the tiger was also knocked back, but it was much better than before. After retreating a few meters, he stabilized his body.
Nie Hongyi looked at the giant tiger and was surprised, "I am a spirit shell master, but this mere beast... is actually not inferior to me in strength."
Song Jing withdrew his true energy, circulated his Dantian, then stood up and came to Nie Hongyi, frowning, "The things that breed in the world are extraordinary, be careful."
Seeing the tiger charging at him with its mouth open, Song Jing stepped back with his right foot, golden light flashing on his one arm.
"boom!"
Ning Xiaochuan felt his eardrums buzzing. After the loud noise, the giant tiger fell heavily to the ground, vomiting blood, and there was a deep pit several meters wide beneath him.
Nie Hongyi took a breath, this is the difference in strength.
"Seeing that it is not easy for you to practice, I will let you go today. We accept this soul-fixing incense." Song Jing said with a frown.
The eye-catching white-browed tiger tried to get up several times, but failed. He just watched Song Jing leading Ning Xiaochuan and others away arrogantly, and could only fall in the pit and roar to the sky, roaring again and again.
Chapter completed!
