Chapter five hundred and seventy-six where the elixir is
After traveling so far, they finally found the elixir, and the three of them looked excited.
Looking at the Hengduan Mountains below, the three of them looked at each other and then jumped in succession!
They did not dare to fly directly through the air, so they glided close to the waterfall and slowly landed towards the mountains and forests below.
After a while, they landed on a mountaintop. They were so startled that a group of white cranes on the top of the mountain flapped their wings and fled in a hurry.
"This white crane is much bigger than what we usually see." Gu Ziyan said in surprise.
"Not just the white crane, there are many wild beasts in this mountain range that are much larger than what we usually see."
Gu Chen extended his consciousness and discovered that there were many wild beasts in the Hengduan Mountains, such as jackals, tigers and leopards, which were three or four times the size of ordinary animals.
Fortunately, although these savage beasts are huge in size, they are not very advanced in cultivation and will not cause much trouble to the three of them.
The three of them entered the mountain and headed towards the gourd-shaped peak. This was the first time they deviated from the route on the map.
They carefully memorized the correct route location so that they could evacuate in time in case of unpredictable situations.
Without the instructions of the map, the three of them became much more cautious and their speed slowed down greatly.
The Hengduan Mountains were full of roars of beasts. They encountered several waves of attacks from monsters on the way, but they were all successfully resolved.
After more than half a day, they finally arrived at their destination!
This gourd-shaped mountain peak is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. Halfway down the mountainside, there are green bamboos planted, which is really beautiful.
Halfway up the mountainside, there are all kinds of strange-shaped rocks, almost barren of grass and bare.
On the top of the mountain, there is a vague stalactite cave, which looks like a different cave.
"Is this it?"
Gu Chen raised his head and looked at the mountain peak, his eyes turned completely purple.
Under his super eyesight, almost everything on the top of the mountain came into view. There was not even a living thing there, and it didn't look like there was any elixir hidden there.
Although half of this mountain peak was lush and green, and full of life, no wild beasts dared to step here. He specifically observed that even the white cranes on the horizon would avoid them when passing by.
"It should be true. The landform here is not much different from what our ancestors recorded." Gu Ziyan looked around and replied.
"There are a lot of restrictions in this bamboo forest, everyone should be careful."
Gu Shenming snapped his fingers and shot a golden light into the forest, but it disappeared silently, so he reminded.
"Let's go up the mountain!" Gu Chen took the lead into the forest.
According to the agreement between the three of them, any troubles encountered along the way, including in the future, will be solved by the two of them as much as possible, but the restriction on the location of the elixir must be broken by Gu Chen.
Gu Chen didn't know what kind of restriction could stop the ancestors of the Gu clan. Now he could only find out what the mystery was by breaking through.
The three of them stepped into the bamboo forest, and the forest immediately changed.
Whether it was the green bamboos around or the grass on the ground, the whole mountain seemed to be alive, with countless grass and trees sweeping towards the three of them.
This scene made Gu Chen feel as if he had returned to the Valley of the Wild Gods, and he couldn't help but look at the white ape.
"Squeak!"
Seeing this, the white ape flipped his hand and took out the small colorful tree, and with a swipe, patches of glow appeared.
Suddenly, the vitality of the mountainous vegetation was attracted, and all of them were swallowed up by the colorful small trees, whether it was a bamboo forest or a grassland, they all withered and died!
Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming were quite surprised by such domineering power. "What a treasure!"
Under the power of the colorful saplings, the vegetation all over the mountain was reduced to ashes, and the original restrictions here seemed to have been lifted at once.
At this time.
"嘤——"
A strange cry came, and a black shadow ran through the dead woods, turned into a stream of light and went up the mountain.
"What is that?"
The three of them were greatly surprised. They didn't notice the black shadow just hiding in the bamboo forest. It didn't escape hastily until all the vegetation withered and it lost its concealment.
When everyone chased it to the place where it had just escaped, a faint medicinal fragrance filled their noses.
"Could it be the elixir with long legs that was rumored just now?"
Gu Ziyan looked happy and blurted out.
"I'm afraid it's possible."
Gu Chen's eyes lit up. Just now the colorful saplings had deprived the mountain of life, and the black shadow had obviously been accidentally attracted by it, thus leaking out a few wisps of the scent of the medicine.
Apart from the rumored elixir, he couldn't think of anything else that could exude the fragrance of medicine.
"Let's go! Chase after us!"
Because of the power of the colorful sapling, the green wood restriction on the mountain was broken almost instantly, and the three of them quickly followed the location of the medicinal fragrance.
They quickly went up the mountain through the bamboo forest.
"What's going on?"
Originally, they should be halfway up the mountain after passing through the bamboo forest, but the three of them found that they were inexplicably back at the foot of the mountain!
But in front of me, the original green bamboo forest disappeared, and it was not the scene that had just been ravaged by colorful small trees. The front turned into a mountain forest shrouded in mist!
The upper part of the mountain is the same as before, bare and full of strange-shaped rocks, but the lower part is completely different.
"Are we still where we were?"
Gu Shenming frowned and couldn't help but ask.
“You’ll know just when you go in and take a look.”
Gu Chen was thoughtful as he stepped into the mountain forest shrouded in mist.
This mountain forest is different from the previous bamboo forest. There are thick piles of rotten leaves on the ground. If you step on it, you will sink into the mud.
There are swamps everywhere ahead, making walking very difficult. The swamps are also filled with miasma and are highly poisonous.
It was obvious that the foot of the mountain was completely different from before, and there were no traces of their previous journey.
"Quack! Quack!"
Golden toads suddenly emerged from the swamp, each with nine eyes.
They poured out of the swamp in dense numbers, and their countless eyes stared at Gu Chen and the three of them, making the three of them look in a trance.
"Be careful, these monster toads can perform spiritual attacks!"
Gu Chen quickly came back to his senses, his eyes turned cold, a scorching sun appeared in his palm, and he pressed it into the swamp!
boom--
Under the high temperature flames, all the toads vaporized, but a poisonous gas lingered in the forest.
"Disperse!"
Gu Chen flicked his sleeves, and a tornado rose up in the forest, sweeping away all the poisonous smoke, and the front was finally clear.
After a lot of effort, they finally got out of the swamp and saw a creature that looked like a sika deer squatting in the distance, looking at them with big curious eyes.
The body of the sika deer was a little unreal. When the white ape saw it, he swallowed his saliva and rushed out with a whoosh!
Buzz——
It suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes, and Gu Chen's expression changed.
"Little guy!"
He followed up, and his eyes flashed, and he found himself at the foot of the mountain again!
The white ape was right in front of him, rubbing his eyes in confusion, seemingly unable to understand the situation in front of him.
