"It was one of the monsters that besieged us that day." Mr. Wu's face suddenly darkened.
"Get rid of it quickly, don't attract more monsters." Taoist Jingquan threw the golden iron ball without hesitation.
At the same time, Gu Xiuyun also danced with his right hand, condensing his light fingers to condense sword energy.
For some reason, his sword energy seemed to be deflected, and one of them landed on the golden iron ball. The sword energy was so powerful that the iron ball hit the towering ancient tree in the distance.
Peng!
The ancient wood collapsed, a big hole was blasted out of the tree trunk, and the monster beast that had not even opened the sky gate had died under Gu Xiuyun's sword.
Taoist Jingquan mobilized his spiritual power to summon the golden iron ball back, but at this moment, the three of them saw cyan light emitting from the trunk of the ancient tree.
"That's...the wood spirit bead?" Wu Lao's eyes suddenly lit up, he walked up quickly and took out the oval green bead from the trunk, "What kind of luck do we have? We can smash it casually." Can a Wood Spirit Bead be found in an ancient tree? ”
Although the Wood Spirit Bead is not as valuable as the Purple Qi Ganoderma, it is also a rare treasure. It takes thousands of ancient trees to produce one Wood Spirit Bead. beads.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, now is not the time to appreciate the spirit beads. Let's hurry up!" Gu Xiuyun urged.
"Okay, okay." Mr. Wu smiled.
The three of them continued walking deeper into the jungle, and this time they did not encounter any monsters again.
But Wu Lao and Taoist Jingquan didn't notice that there was a hint of pride in Gu Xiuyun's eyes.
It was a coincidence that they happened to encounter the monster next to the ancient tree containing the Wood Spirit Pearl. Of course, it was the result of Gu Xiuyun's calculations.
There are many monsters in the forest at the moment. Those monsters don’t even hide their auras, and even roar from time to time. It is not difficult to detect the traces of the monsters. Gu Xiuyun only needs to deliberately control the footsteps of the three people, and then It is not impossible to coordinate with the whereabouts of monsters and create chance encounters.
Of course, this requires the complete trust of Taoist Wu Lao and Jingquan and letting him lead the way. Otherwise, no matter how big the plan is, it will be empty talk if they are disobedient.
After walking for nearly a stick of incense, everyone arrived at the top of Zhima Cave.
They quickly dug out the tunnel and drilled all the way deep underground.
"Hey, we have only been away for an hour, and the young mushrooms in the cave have actually decreased by nearly 40%." Seeing the purple young mushrooms sparse on the surrounding stone walls, Wu Lao showed surprise, " I'm afraid that Zhima has been hiding nearby, observing our every move."
"It is said that the wisdom of the thousand-year-old Zhima is no less than that of the human race. It seems true," Taoist Jingquan nodded slightly, "Old Wu. , you are good at the secret method of finding Zhi, can you find the location of the Thousand-Year Zhima?"
"Fellow Taoist Jingquan is too flattering to me," Wu Laolian shook his head, "The Thousand-Year Zhima cannot fight with others? In addition, in terms of magical power, it is no less than the Great Demon of the Sixth Heaven. Want to find it? Unless this Zima is greedy again and takes the initiative to run into my Lingye Altar."
Previous post.The other time, Wu Lao used the Lingye Altar to attract the Purple Qi Lingzhi, but in the end, he attracted the greedy Millennium Zhima, so that most of the Lingzhi in the altar was stolen.
This incident also made Wu Lao regretful, and he only regretted that he had not set up a wire mesh trap earlier and allowed the thousand-year-old Zhima to escape.
"Friend Wu Dao, the thousand-year-old Zhima has always been difficult to capture. Even the masters in the Douxiao Realm are helpless. Why should we force it?" Gu Xiuyun said with a faint smile, "Besides, there are endless treasures in this world, except for There are many rare and rare treasures in the Millennium Zima, such as the Wooden Spirit Bead that Wu Daoyou just obtained. It is a treasure. Speaking of which, I have never seen a Wooden Spirit Bead."
"What Fellow Daoist Gu said is, Mr. Wu, take out your Wood Spirit Pearl for us to see. I have been practicing for many years and have never seen a Wood Spirit Pearl. I have only seen descriptions of this kind of Spirit Pearl in classics." Taoist Jingquan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly urged Mr. Wu to take out the spirit beads for everyone to appreciate.
The Wood Spirit Pearl is rare in the world, and few can be found in the eight cities of Chu County. Therefore, the four people present have never actually seen the Wood Spirit Pearl.
Old Wu chuckled and said, "As promised in advance, I found this orb. I want you to admire it, but you can't snatch it."
"It's just a wood spirit bead. Although it's rare, it's not very useful. Why did you steal it?" Taoist Jingquan rolled his eyes, "Don't be stingy, take it out and let us have a look."
Wu Lao took it from his chest. He took out the spirit bead, shook it twice, and suddenly put it in Gu Xiuyun's hand, "You want to see it, but I won't let you see it. Fellow Taoist Gu, I'll let you appreciate it first."
The wood spirit bead has just been touched. Touching Gu Xiuyun's palm, a spiritual light that no one could detect poured into the body, and then the Life Star Bead began to repair quickly.
As the fourth life star bead was repaired, weak life force surged out of the star bead and merged into Gu Xiuyun's body.
He increased his longevity by eight days.
"It's true. Every time you repair a Life Star Bead, the life span you get will be doubled. Calculated in this way, the next Life Star Bead can increase your life span by sixteen days." Gu Xiuyun said slightly. nod.
This number is very small, but don’t forget that there are hundreds of life star beads inlaid in the soul. If they can be doubled every time, the life span increased by the life star beads will be greater. The more terrifying it will be, as long as twenty pills are needed, it will reach an incredible number.
"Perhaps I'm overthinking it. If the life star disk really has such power, how could it collapse?"
After the fourth life star bead was repaired, it also Breaking away from the shackles of the soul, it floated over the sea of consciousness, occupying one side with the other three life star beads.
After adding a life star bead, the starlight in the sea of consciousness became more intense, which made Gu Xiuyun's somewhat stagnant soul transformation speed up a little faster.
Before Gu Xiuyun had time to rejoice, he suddenly felt his heart tremble, and the rules of heaven and earth surged again.
"Here we go again!"
Gu Xiuyun looked at the sky, and the invisible heavenly sword hung above his head. After a moment of hesitation, it dissipated.
"It seems that I did not violate the taboos of heaven," Gu Xiuyun breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right, I didn't take the initiative to ask Mr. Wu to give me the Wood Spirit Pearl. I just said that I had never seen the Wood Spirit Pearl before. Between the two, There is no absolute causal relationship. "
It can be seen that the heavenly rules and taboos are not that strict. As long as you violate them without knowing it, God will not punish you.
"I don't know what Peng Zu did back then. To make Heaven so angry, it not only punished him, but also brought disaster to the Destiny clan for generations to come. "Gu Xiuyun couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he thought of the curse of the Tianming Clan.
From his test, it seems that the sky is kind and will not punish anyone who violates the rules of heaven without knowing it. However, Peng Zu unexpectedly What taboo was violated to make the sky angry?
After the fourth life star bead was repaired, the fifth life star bead trembled, and a picture was transmitted into the depths of Gu Xiuyun's soul.
It is a fiery red stone, covered with patterns. The stone rises and falls in the magma, giving off luster from time to time.
“Sunstone, this is much easier. "Gu Xiuyun breathed a sigh of relief.
