"Our captain is Zhuang Yafei. He is the elder of our Zhuang family in Haiyun Prefecture. He is a martial arts master at the ninth level of refining the gods."
On the way, the woman in red told Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er something about the team.
Except for the captain Zhuang Yafei, the woman in red is named Xing Ranran, and she is the second strongest person in the team.
After a while, under the leadership of Xing Ranran, Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er saw the other five people in this team.
The leader is an extraordinary middle-aged man with a level of cultivation at the ninth level of god refining. He should be the captain mentioned by Xing Ranran, Zhuang Yafei.
The other four people are all at the seventh level of god refining.
"Junior sister Xing, have you recruited someone so quickly?" Zhuang Yafei asked with a surprised smile when he saw Xing Ranran and the two of them walking over.
Xing Ranran also smiled and nodded, saying: "The cultivation of these two is above the fifth level of God Refining."
"You two look very unfamiliar. They are probably not from Haiyun Prefecture. What do you call them?" Zhuang Yafei looked at Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er and asked.
"My name is Shura, and this is my wife, Luo Yue." Luo Xiu said.
At first, most of the eyes of Zhuang Yafei and others fell on Yan Yue'er. Although she had changed her appearance, her temperament and appearance were still outstanding, and it was difficult for others not to notice her.
When they heard the name 'Shura', the six people, including Zhuang Yafei and Xin Ranran, all looked stern.
Because in the past two years, the names Luo Xiu and Shura have become the most popular in the entire Tianwu Kingdom.
Especially in recent times, the killing of the powerful King Wu of the Yan family in Douhai County and the destruction of the top aristocratic family Pei family were all related to this person.
"Haha, don't get me wrong. I have also heard that Shura is Luo Xiu's pseudonym, but my real name is Shura, and I have been misunderstood several times before." Luo Xiu explained with a smile.
This explanation quite meant that there was no three hundred taels of silver here, but the expressions of Zhuang Yafei and others softened a lot.
"That's right. I heard that the Fan family royal family, the Yan family, and even the Xuanyang Sect are investigating Luo Xiu's whereabouts. If you were really him, you would definitely not show up so arrogantly." Xin Ranran said with a smile.
"Well, that's true." Zhuang Yafei looked at Luo Xiu a few more times and said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Zhuang Yafei took out a map of the swamp. Although the map was not complete, it covered most of the area.
"There are eight people in our team, and they are all above the fifth level of God Refining, so we can definitely go deeper and explore the Tongshui Swamp."
Spreading out the map, Zhuang Yafei pointed his finger at a direction marked on the map, and drew a circle with his finger, "This is the area we will explore. No matter what treasure is found, the one with the greatest contribution will get 50%, and the rest will get 50%."
Divide the remaining 50% equally."
The average hunter team uses this distribution method.
Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er naturally had no objections to this, but when they noticed the location of the area marked on the map, his eyes shrank slightly because that area seemed to be the cave marked on the secret map in his hand.
Where the ruins are.
"Is it just a coincidence?" Luo Xiu frowned. Although there was a possibility of coincidence, he told him directly that this might not be a coincidence.
However, Luo Xiu didn't care about this. With his and Yan Yue'er's strength, not to mention the six God Refining Martial Sects, even the six Martial Kings could easily handle it.
…
Led by Zhuang Yafei, a group of eight people flew into the air and soon arrived near the Tongshui Swamp from the small town.
There are many monsters hiding and dormant in the swamp, and there are also flying monsters in the sky. Therefore, even the strong martial arts masters above the God Refining Realm cannot fly too high here unscrupulously. Generally, they are two or three meters away from the ground of the swamp.
The distance is empty.
Occasionally, monsters hidden in the swamp would suddenly emerge and attack Luo Xiu and his party. However, the levels of these monsters were not high, so they did not encounter any danger along the way.
The monsters living in the swamp are good at concealing their own aura. Unless these monsters come out to attack, even Luo Xiu's spiritual consciousness will have a hard time detecting them hiding in the mud.
Like most dangerous places, the deeper you go into this watery swamp, the more dangerous it becomes, but it is also easier to find valuable treasure resources.
"Black-hearted water lotus!"
When they were about to approach the target area, a martial artist in the team who was at the seventh level of god refining suddenly exclaimed.
I saw a pool of water more than 200 meters away from everyone. In the center of the pool, a black lotus flower floated on the water.
The Black-Hearted Water Lotus is a fifth-level elixir that can only grow in swamps. Its lotus seeds can be used to refine fifth-level body tempering pills. It is a treasure that makes countless body-refining martial arts cultivators jealous.
When he saw the Black-Hearted Water Lotus, Luo Xiu couldn't help but feel a little moved, because if he wanted to improve his king-level combat body, he needed a fifth-grade body tempering pill.
In recent times, he has obtained a lot of high-level elixirs, but there are very few elixirs related to body and soul refining.
The Seventh Level Martial Arts Master who discovered the Black-Hearted Water Lotus rushed over immediately, condensed his true energy in his palms, and grabbed the Black Lotus floating on the pool.
When martial arts cultivators discover elixirs, they generally do not destroy the roots unless necessary, because most elixirs must grow in a specific environment. This approach can also be regarded as a way to continue the inheritance of martial arts.
.
The most valuable thing about the black-hearted water lotus is the lotus seeds, and the lotus seeds grow in the lotus pods. You only need to take away the lotus flowers.
"Geng Zongyang, don't go there first!" Captain Zhuang Yafei frowned and shouted loudly.
In this watery swamp, wherever treasures appear, there will be certain dangers. On the one hand, it is not only human martial arts that need elixirs and treasures to enhance their strength, but also monsters.
Another reason is that a place where elixirs can grow must have a special environment, which can easily attract some monsters to cultivate nearby.
Most experienced hunters know this rule, but the value of the fifth-grade elixir Black-Hearted Water Lotus is so high that the experienced seventh-level martial arts sect could not hold back the impulse and rushed directly.
Up.
Being unable to maintain a normal mentality when facing extremely valuable treasures is a taboo for hunters!
Although Zhuang Yafei had already warned him, the seventh-level martial arts master had already rushed over. Just when his hand was about to catch the Black-Hearted Water Lotus, a sudden change occurred.
A huge black head burst out of the pool, with an inverted triangular snake head covered with scales, making it ferocious and terrifying.
"Zong Yang, come back quickly!"
Seeing this monster that suddenly appeared, Zhuang Yafei and others acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Geng Zongyang, who rushed over, broke out in cold sweat. Compared to the ferocious black triangular snake head, the length of a fang was much longer than his height.
In the world of monsters, although a larger size does not mean a higher level or strength, in most cases, a monster with a larger size is stronger and has a higher level.
Geng Zongyang desperately mobilized his true energy, and a bright light erupted from his body, trying to escape as fast as possible.
The head of the snake-like monster was exposed in the pool, and a trace of human humor flashed in its scarlet lantern-like eyes.
"hiss!……"
The scarlet snake letter spit out like lightning, like a bloody whip, and struck Geng Zongyang's body with a snap.
Geng Zongyang's body was shot down from the air, and the back where he was hit by the snake letter was black, and it quickly spread to the whole body.
Immediately afterwards, jet-black poisonous pythons emerged from the swamp. There were more than a dozen of them, each one as thick as a bucket, fighting to submerge Geng Zongyang's body.
"Damn it, this is a snake den, run away!"
Zhuang Yafei roared and was the first to turn around and fly away.
Luo Xiu also had a stern look on his face. The largest black poisonous python that appeared first was a fifth-level monster. Then it sprang out and killed Geng Zongyang. Each of them was a fourth-level monster.
This is indeed a snake den, and the venomous python is extremely poisonous. Even the powerful King Wu may be damaged here.
This is also the reason why a black-hearted water lily grew here but was never taken away.
Luo Xiu also flew away with Zhuang Yafei and others, secretly marking this place on the secret map, because he really needed the lotus seeds of the Black Heart Water Lotus.
As long as lotus seeds can be obtained, other materials for refining the fifth-grade body tempering pill will be relatively easy to collect.
"hiss!"
The huge body of the fifth-level poisonous python rushed out of the swamp. A piece of scale armor was as big as a door panel, and its body was nearly a hundred meters long.
At the same time, more poisonous pythons emerged from the swamp. In just a short moment, dozens of poisonous pythons appeared. It was obvious that this group of poisonous pythons did not intend to let go of the prey that had caught their mouths.
Clang!
Luo Xiu pulled out the Tongxuan Tiger Tooth Sword from behind, and chopped off the head of a poisonous python that was charging at him with one sword stroke, causing black and smelly blood to spill out.
Even the bloody aura contains toxins. Fortunately, Luo Xiu's physique has become special due to his practice of the Wheel of Life and Death. After the toxins enter the body, they are quickly decomposed and refined by the true energy of life and death.
Yan Yue'er followed Luo Xiu every step of the way. She would not take action easily unless absolutely necessary, because once she did, she would definitely release the strong aura of Wu Jun.
Xin Ranran was besieged by three poisonous pythons, but with her cultivation at the eighth level of divine refining, she was able to deal with it with ease.
But suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from the swamp mud at her feet, and a dormant poisonous python sprang out and entangled her feet.
"Ah!...Help!"
Xin Ranran let out a cry of surprise, and her expression suddenly became panicked. She could only watch helplessly as the three poisonous pythons opened their fangs and rushed towards them, but they were unable to avoid them.
"Puff puff!……"
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared, and the black sword light was as fast as lightning, and it chopped off the heads of three poisonous pythons.
The black figure who appeared in time was naturally Luo Xiu. He did not use his true essence, but relied on the physical strength of the king-level battle body to fight. Otherwise, once the Netherworld Death Flame was used, his identity would be exposed.
.
Even if you don't use true energy to fight, it is easy to kill these fourth-level poisonous pythons with the physical realm of the king-level combat body.
He raised his hand and swung his sword to kill the poisonous python wrapped around Xin Ranran's feet. Luo Xiu hurriedly said: "Quickly leave!"
Xin Ranran was in shock. Before she could say thank you, she was pulled up by Luo Xiu and quickly exited the swamp.
At this moment, the fifth-level poisonous python flew after him. Luo Xiu turned his head and looked at it. The Martial King-level consciousness came out, and he used the soul-shattering secret technique of soul attack.
The consciousness sea of the fifth-level poisonous python was impacted, and it suddenly rolled and screamed. Luo Xiu, Yan Yue'er, and Xin Ranran also took this opportunity to leave here quickly.
As for the other people in the team, Luo Xiu and Yan Yue'er didn't care.
