After entering the second level of the Xiantian Realm, Gu Chen found a remote location and spent three days to stabilize his cultivation before getting up and heading towards the Valley of Withered Souls.
Four days later, Gu Chen entered the Death Mountain.
The Death Mountain range has a radius of several hundred miles, and the closer you go to the center, the fewer plants grow. When you reach the Valley of Dead Souls, which has a radius of dozens of miles, only some extremely poison-resistant plants grow, and there are not even a few trees on the top of a mountain.
Compared with the lush forests of the entire Eastern Wilderness, the Death Mountain Range stands out particularly prominently, like a bald man's head suddenly empty.
Entering the Death Mountain, Gu Chen fell to the ground and did not continue flying.
Although the Death Mountains look bare, they are not without monsters and beasts to survive. If you fly directly into the Death Mountains with your weapon, it will be difficult for the monsters not to see them.
It's just passing by, just fly over. If it weren't for the demon bird, the demon beast in the innate realm can't fly. If the demon beast on the ground sees it, it can only stare at it.
If you want to enter the Valley of Withered Souls, you can't fly blatantly. It will not be beneficial to Gu Chen at all if you attract all the nearby monsters to the Valley of Withered Souls.
Entering the Death Mountains, it was only a hundred miles away from the Withered Soul Valley. Gu Chen carefully avoided some monsters along the way, and an hour later, he arrived outside the Withered Soul Valley.
When we arrived at the Valley of Dry Souls, all the trees, flowers and plants were gone. There was no grass growing at all.
Gu Chen was delighted when he saw this, indicating that there must be a soul-attracting flower in the valley.
Maintaining a high degree of vigilance, Gu Chen entered the Valley of Dead Souls. The surrounding air was sucked into his body, and he suddenly felt dizzy. More than ten miles away, the soul-inducing flower had already had an effect on Gu Chen.
Xiaobai sat on his shoulder, also very uneasy.
Gu Chen took out the bitter leaf lotus, picked off two leaves, and put one in his mouth. His eyes and ears suddenly became clearer, his heart felt refreshed, and his dizziness disappeared immediately.
Bitter-leaf lotus is the nemesis of the soul-attracting flower. With bitter-leaf lotus, Gu Chen is not afraid of the poison of the soul-attracting flower. Otherwise, Gu Chen would never have thought of entering the Valley of Dead Souls.
After giving Xiaobai another bitter leaf, Gu Chen continued to move forward.
There is no grass growing in the Valley of Dry Souls. It seems that apart from the soul-attracting flowers, there is no other life.
If you think so, you are wrong.
Gu Chen had been here in his previous life and knew that in addition to the soul-attracting flower, there was also a powerful monster in the Withered Soul Valley - the Poisonous Jiao. When Gu Chen saw the poisonous Jiao, the poisonous Jiao had just grown its second horn and emerged.
As a dragon, his cultivation has reached the divine sea realm.
At this time, it was still more than a hundred years ago, and the Poisonous Jiao had not yet transformed into a dragon. If it had transformed into a dragon, Gu Chen would not have come here to do useless work. After the Poison Jiao transformed into a dragon, he cultivated and entered the Divine Sea Realm.
Will come to die.
The lifespan of a Jiao is extremely long, up to a thousand years. In more than a hundred years, before the Jiao transforms into a dragon, its cultivation level should not change much. Gu Chen estimates that the current poisonous Jiao's cultivation level should be at the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm.
about.
Not long after, Gu Chen had penetrated deep into the Valley of Dead Souls. There was a dark cave in the valley, where the Soul Attracting Flower was.
Naturally, the poisonous dragon is also in the cave.
With Gu Chen's cultivation level, it would be extremely dangerous to enter the cave rashly.
Thirty feet away from the cave, Gu Chen stopped and looked quietly at the cave in front of him. He listened for a while, but there was no sound.
It is unknown whether the poisonous dragon is meditating in the cave or has left the cave.
He raised his hand, and a Taiyi Talisman appeared in Gu Chen's hand. Immediately, the Taiyi Talisman came out of his hand and blasted towards the cave ahead.
boom……
The Taiyi Talisman turned into a bolt of lightning and exploded at the entrance of the cave, making a loud explosion.
Roar……
A loud roar came from the cave, and in an instant, a black shadow jumped out of the cave.
Gu Chen instantly released his flying sword and flew into the air.
The black shadow emerged from the hole and immediately revealed its body. This monster was about ten feet long, with a vertical horn on its head, its body covered with scales, and its tail as smooth as a snake. It was the poisonous dragon dragon that Gu Chen had seen in his previous life.
His pupils shrank, and Gu Chen became more vigilant. This poisonous dragon actually reached the ninth level of Xiantian Realm, which surprised Gu Chen.
This dragon actually stayed at the ninth level of the Xiantian Realm for more than a hundred years.
Although the dragon is not a dragon, it has some abilities of a dragon. For example, the dragon is not a demon bird, but it has the ability to fly in the innate realm.
The poisonous dragon looked at Gu Chen, raised its head fiercely, and roared again. It was obvious that it was quite angry with Gu Chen.
Gu Chen used the Tiangang Body Tempering Technique to strengthen his body to its strongest state, stimulating the innate true energy, so that the Swift Feather Cloak can exert its maximum effect, and be ready to dodge the poisonous dragon's attack at any time.
After making all preparations, Gu Chen pointed at the Poisonous Jiao and blasted out a Fire Talisman. The Fire Talisman turned into a sheet of flame and fell onto the poisonous Jiao's head in an instant.
"puff……"
The poisonous dragon blew out at the Fire Talisman, and the flame transformed by the Fire Talisman was immediately extinguished, leaving the poisonous dragon unscathed.
The Fire Talisman was easily destroyed by the poisonous dragon. Gu Chen was not surprised, it was completely expected.
How dare a tiny human monk dare to challenge a powerful dragon...
The poisonous dragon clawed the ground with its four claws, and the entire ground immediately fell into pieces. At this moment, the poisonous dragon suddenly rose into the sky and pounced on Gu Chen.
"Squeak..." Xiaobai let out a terrified sound.
The cultivation level of the Poisonous Jiao is more than ten times more powerful than that of Gu Canghai, and his momentum is also ten times stronger than that of Gu Canghai. Gu Canghai almost slapped Xiaobai into a pulp with one palm, and the Poisonous Jiao showed its power.
, Xiaobai was of course frightened.
Although Gu Chen was shocked, he was not afraid. The poisonous dragon's behavior was what he expected, and he was already ready to escape. When the poisonous dragon moved, Gu Chen turned into a rainbow with his flying sword and fled far away.
The poisonous dragon immediately chased after him, and within a few breaths, he chased Gu Chen a hundred feet away.
Gu Chen's body strengthened to its strongest state, and the Swift Feather Cloak also reached its maximum acceleration effect, which was comparable to the speed of a late-stage Xiantian realm monk.
Although the poisonous dragon is a monster at the peak of the Xiantian realm, its flying speed is not as fast as Gu Chen. It is not easy to catch up with Gu Chen in a short time.
After chasing for a distance of more than a thousand feet, seeing that the pursuit was not easy, the poisonous dragon stopped chasing and retreated.
Gu Chen didn't allow it to flinch. He was always paying attention to the movement of the poisonous dragon. When he saw it stop, he immediately raised his hand and a Taiyi Talisman came over again.
As soon as the thunder exploded, the Taiyi Talisman turned into a bolt of lightning and struck the poisonous dragon. The poisonous dragon's scales were hard and it was hit by the Taiyi Talisman without any damage.
However, the poisonous dragon's anger burned again, and he chased Gu Chen again. After Gu Chen released the Taiyi Talisman, he had already escaped, and chased him for hundreds of feet. Seeing that it was not easy to chase, the poisonous dragon lost it again.
Interested in pursuing.
At this moment, Gu Chen would eat a talisman for the poisonous dragon, successfully arousing its anger and chasing after Gu Chen.
slowly……
The poisonous dragon was lured farther and farther away from the cave by Gu Chen...
It didn't take long for the poisonous dragon to chase Gu Chen, running for more than ten miles and chasing him to the outside of the Withered Soul Valley.
At the beginning, the poisonous dragon chased and stopped for a while. Although it was faster than Gu Chen, it could not close the distance after chasing several times.
After being blasted with spells by Gu Chen several times in a row, Poisonous Jiao became really angry and had no intention of staying any longer. There was a fierce light in his eyes. He vowed not to catch Gu Chen and tear him into pieces.
give up.
Gu Chen's speed was slightly slower than that of the Poisonous Jiao, and he was gradually chased by the Poisonous Jiao.
Seeing that the poisonous dragon was getting closer and closer, Gu Chen didn't panic at all and kept his speed and continued to fly forward.
After chasing out of the Withered Soul Valley, the poisonous dragon had already caught up to half the distance. Gu Chen was still flying forward, but there was something more in his hand - the spirit-dropping talisman.
Gu Chen desperately fled out of the Death Mountain, getting further and further away from the Withered Soul Valley. Similarly, with the poisonous dragon chasing after him, he got further and further away from the Withered Soul Valley.
After escaping from the Valley of Dead Souls, Gu Chen fled forward for more than ten miles, and was finally caught up by the poisonous dragon. The poisonous dragon roared and sprayed a mouthful of poisonous mist towards Gu Chen. Look at the dark and dark appearance of the poisonous mist.
You know it's highly toxic.
The poisonous mist came very quickly and was about to cover Gu Chen in it.
Sudden……
A clear light flashed in Gu Chen's hand and flowed into his whole body instantly. Gu Chen's cultivation skyrocketed, from the second level of the Xiantian Realm to the sixth level of the Xiantian Realm.
Xiantian realm cultivation has exerted the maximum effect of the low-grade spirit-dropping talisman.
Gu Chen's speed suddenly increased.
At the sixth level of Xiantian Realm, how fast will it be with the maximum speed boost of Swift Feather Cloak?
If any skilled monks saw this, they would be shocked. A monk at the sixth level of the Xiantian Realm could fly as fast as a monk at the embryonic stage of the Divine Sea Realm.
Compared with the flying speed of the Poisonous Jiao, Gu Chen easily dodged the poisonous mist and turned his body to the side. Gu Chen suddenly changed his direction, bypassed the Poisonous Jiao, and unexpectedly headed towards it again.
Flying into the Valley of Dead Souls.
Poisonous Jiao Jiao was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, Gu Chen suddenly ran back to the original direction. When he turned around, Gu Chen was already hundreds of feet away.
Seeing Gu Chen flying straight into the Valley of Withered Souls, the poisonous dragon roared and chased after Gu Chen at the fastest speed.
However, Gu Chen's current speed is more than twice as fast as the poisonous dragon. No matter how hard the poisonous dragon chases, the distance from Gu Chen is getting farther and farther. It doesn't take long for Gu Chen to be in the eyes of the poisonous dragon.
It turned into a thin spot, leaving only a little light in the distance.
A ray of sword light came through the air without any stop, and shot directly into the dark cave in the Valley of Dead Souls. The poisonous dragon had arrived more than ten miles away. Gu Chen didn't have much time, so he had to pick the soul-inducing flower and leave immediately.
If you are blocked by a poisonous dragon, you will not be able to escape.
The cave has seven bends and eight orifices. If you come here for the first time, you will never dare to fly with a weapon in the cave. If you are not good at it, you will have to have close contact with the cave wall.
However, Gu Chen had entered a cave in his previous life and still had memories of the passage inside. He maintained his escape speed and flew into the cave quickly. The cave was not very long, and the distance was less than a hundred feet. Soon, Gu Chen went deep into the cave.
In the middle, a cave hall with a radius of one hundred feet appeared in front of you.
There is a water pool with a radius of more than thirty feet in the cave hall. In the center of the pool, there is a piece of land with a radius of more than ten feet. In the center of the land, grows a blood-red flower with a delicate color.
A blood-red flower as big as a palm, extremely beautiful, it is the soul-inducing flower.
Apart from a rhizome, the soul-inducing flower has only one flower and no leaves.
The soul-inducing flower fell into Gu Chen's eyes. Gu Chen's eyes immediately felt a stinging pain. He took out the bitter leaf lotus, picked half of the bitter leaf lotus leaves, and stuffed it into his mouth. He suddenly felt clear and refreshing.
"Close your eyes, close your breath..." Gu Chen shouted to Xiaobai, stepped on his flying sword, and drew a stream of light towards the Soul-Inducing Flower. He flew near the Soul-Inducing Flower, reached out and picked it, and the entire Soul-Inducing Flower came out.
It was picked into Gu Chen's hand.
A wooden box appeared in Gu Chen's hand. This was a special wooden box for placing spiritual herbs. He put the soul-inducing flower into the wooden box and put it into the Qiankun Bracelet. Without stopping, Gu Chen ran out of the cave as fast as an arrow.
Escape from the cave. At this speed, there is no problem in getting rid of the poisonous dragon. It is safe.
Blocked in the cave, with Gu Chen's cultivation level, the only way to fight against the poisonous dragon is despair and death.
A ray of sword light quickly shuttled through the cave. This short distance of more than a hundred feet felt as far away as a long corridor thousands of miles away in Gu Chen's heart. Every second felt like torture.
Sudden……
It's bright ahead, and the entrance to the cave is right in front of you.
At the last moment, Gu Chen became calmer, maintained a high degree of vigilance, and ran out of the cave.
Roar……
As soon as he emerged from the cave, the roar of the poisonous dragon could already be heard. This dragon had lived in the cave for hundreds of years and had a close relationship with the soul-attracting peanut. He knew in his heart that the soul-attracting flower had been picked by Gu Chen.
.
The poisonous dragon is only a hundred feet away from the entrance of the cave...
Gu Chen's secret path was very dangerous. His body folded and he immediately turned to the west, turned into a stream of light, and fled far away.
The poisonous dragon behind him kept roaring and chased Gu Chen. However, Gu Chen escaped very fast, and the distance between him and the poisonous dragon became farther and farther. Soon, in the eyes of the poisonous dragon, Gu Chen turned into a distant place again.
A little light in the sky.
Gu Chen ran all the way... In less than half an hour, he had already escaped hundreds of miles away, escaped the poisonous dragon for more than 200 miles, and was already out of the poisonous dragon's sight.
A clear light flashed from Gu Chen's body, converging on his right palm, and the spirit-dropping talisman appeared again. The remaining spiritual power of the original spirit-dropping talisman was almost exhausted. This time, he just fled and did not fight. If he had to fight with the poisonous dragon
Last time, the spirit-dropping talisman was probably used up.
Although there was only a little bit of spiritual power left, Gu Chen still regarded the Soul Subduing Talisman as a valuable treasure, carefully collected the Qiankun Bracelet, turned to the southwest, and continued to escape quickly.
Having escaped from Poisonous Jiao's sight, Gu Chen changed direction. It was almost impossible for Poisonous Jiao to catch up. Moreover, Gu Chen's escape speed was not much slower than that of Poisonous Jiao. After such a long distance,
The poisonous dragon is even harder to catch.
Turning to the southwest, Gu Chen continued to run wildly and escaped a thousand miles away. Then he continued to turn due west and escaped another thousand miles. When the sky became dark, Gu Chen stopped flying and found a remote place.
Set foot on the ground.
Making sure there were no threats within a thousand feet radius, Gu Chen immediately swallowed a Yuanling Pill, held a spirit stone in each hand, and quickly recovered his energy.
A monk would be exhausted after running thousands of miles without eating or drinking. What's more, although the period of picking soul-inducing flowers in the cave was short, it consumed a huge amount of energy and he never had time to recover.
Soon, Gu Chen entered into trance. After half an hour of double recovery with the Yuanling Pill and the Spiritual Stone, he had fully recovered.
