Seeking Immortality

Southern Wasteland, sad and desolate.

"Southern Wasteland, what happened?" Xu Qingfan stood quietly on the back of a small hill, holding a black exotic flower in his right hand, muttering to himself.

This time, Xu Qingfan came to the Southern Wasteland, in addition to killing the blue-eyed cloud kicking beast that destroyed Xujiazhai to avenge himself, and then trying to find the lost tribesmen, collecting the exotic flowers and plants in the Southern Wasteland was also one of his purposes.

The Southern Wasteland is said to have 100,000 barren mountains, and its vastness is endless. To this day, no one knows what is at the end of the Southern Wasteland. Such a vast area, coupled with a desolate and dangerous environment, naturally grows a lot of exotic flowers and plants.

Xu Qingfan himself grew up on the edge of the Southern Wasteland since he was a child, and he had carefully read Yunyouzi's "Strange Talks of Mountains and Seas - Plants and Trees". He knew the exotic flowers and plants on the edge of the Southern Wasteland very well, and knew that the exotic flowers and plants here were much stronger than what he was using now. For example, the dreaded man-eating plant, even the blood wolf pack that dominates the prehistoric world dare not approach it at all. After each man-eating plant grows up, the animals within a few miles around will be wiped out. It is one of the most terrifying existences on the edge of the prehistoric world. There is also the Naling grass, which can absorb the spiritual energy in the body of the cultivator, and its ability is extremely mysterious. If you get the seeds of these exotic flowers and herbs and refine them into your body, it will improve Xu Qingfan's strength by more than one level.

The blue-eyed cloud kicking beast that destroyed Xu Qingfan's home has at least the strength of the initial stage of spiritual silence, and may even reach the terrifying late stage of spiritual silence. Therefore, although Xu Qingfan has now entered the spiritual silence period and can be regarded as a master in the entire cultivation world, he dare not say that he is completely sure that he can win the battle, so he dare not be careless at all.

If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. So in the past three days, Xu Qingfan has been wandering around the edge of the southern wilderness, just to collect enough seeds of exotic flowers and herbs, so that with a great improvement in combat power, the hope of revenge will naturally be much greater.

But the result surprised Xu Qingfan! !

For example, the purple-blue exotic flower in Xu Qingfan's hand was originally called "Six-diamond Flower", which is also one of the exotic flowers in the Southern Wilderness. This flower has the characteristics of both the Explosive Flame Flower and the Love Flower, and even better. Not only will it explode more strongly than the Explosive Flame Flower after the collision, but it will also produce a fascinating mist that cannot be blown away by the wind. It is one of the key points of Xu Qingfan's search for exotic flowers in the Southern Wilderness this time.

However, the original color of this flower should be pink, but now it has turned black, and there is a faint purple-blue flame pattern in the petals, just like the mutated beasts encountered before. After exploring the spiritual energy detection, Xu Qingfan found that there was a trace of demonic energy in this flower, as if it had been cast with the "Nine Demonic Changes". Moreover, after these exotic flowers and herbs were demonized, Xu Qingfan could not assimilate the seeds produced into his body! !

And this is the seventeenth time Xu Qingfan has discovered this situation on the edge of the Southern Wilderness in three days. Because of the repeated encounters with such mutated flowers and plants, Xu Qingfan has not gained much in the past few days.

If Xu Qingfan had not collected a six-ring flower seed from another place a day ago, he would definitely feel regretful now. However, what he is more concerned about now is what exactly caused these exotic flowers and plants and even ordinary flowers and plants to mutate?

"Nine Demonic Changes" is a well-known magic method in the world of immortal cultivation. You should know that when the immortals and demons fought nearly ten thousand years ago, the number of demon cultivators under the "Demon Ancestor" was far less than that of immortal cultivators. The reason why they could fight on equal terms with immortal cultivators was one of the important reasons.

"Nine Demonic Changes" is a very unique method specially created by the "Demon Ancestor" at that time because the number of demon cultivators was far less than that of immortal cultivators. The mystery of this method is that demon cultivators can rely on this method to demonize wild beasts, mortals, and even low-level immortal cultivators, making them become "demon soldiers" attached to demon cultivators while their strength is greatly improved. At that time, the reason why the "Demon Ancestor" could run rampant was not only because of his own strength, but also because he had countless demon soldiers under his command.

But what surprised Xu Qingfan was that the "Nine Demon Transformations" were usually used on mortals or beasts. However, from what Xu Qingfan had seen in the past three days, not only did many beasts in the Southern Wilds undergo physical changes, but even many ordinary plants had undergone more or less demonization. If the beasts had undergone demonization because there were demon cultivators who were secretly developing demon soldiers, then why did so many plants also undergo changes? Demonized plants are useless.

"Southern Wilds, what happened?" Through the observations of the past few days, Xu Qingfan had determined that the Southern Wilds had undergone earth-shaking changes since he left, and he began to worry about his trip.

Just as Xu Qingfan was secretly worried about his clansmen whose lives and deaths were unknown, a strong spiritual fluctuation suddenly came from afar. Judging from the intensity of this spiritual fluctuation, it was at least caused by the simultaneous actions of several masters in the Spiritual Silence Period.

"There are actually immortal cultivators here in the Southern Wilds? And it seems that there are quite a few of them, and they are all masters." Xu Qingfan turned around and looked far away in the direction where the spiritual energy fluctuations came from, and was secretly surprised. You know, the spiritual energy in the Southern Wilds is thin, and there are very few immortal cultivators coming here.

Xu Qingfan hesitated slightly in his heart, but he couldn't resist his curiosity and flew quickly in the direction of the spiritual energy fluctuations with the "Three-foot Green Silk".

When Xu Qingfan arrived at the place where the spiritual energy fluctuations occurred, the scene he saw surprised him.

Four cultivators of different appearances were fighting with dense black mutant beasts. The beasts on the field were swooping and colliding, and various powerful Taoist methods were constantly released. The roar of the beasts, the shouts of the cultivators, and the explosions after the release of the Taoist methods kept ringing, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

Among the four cultivators, two of them attracted Xu Qingfan's special attention. One of them was an old man wearing hemp clothes and looking sad. His strength had reached the middle stage of spiritual silence, and he used earth-based Taoist methods to fight the enemy. While controlling the four rock puppets to defend against the enemy, he could still continuously perform some powerful Taoist methods. When the mutant beast rushed in front of the four people, its speed dropped significantly. It was obvious that he had performed the earth binding technique. At the same time, he also performed many other attacking Taoist methods from time to time. In front of him, the ground suddenly collapsed, or dense stone spears suddenly emerged from the ground. Although the mutant beasts were endless, they could not rush close to the area around him.

The other was a handsome young man with a handsome and resolute face. He was dressed in a gorgeous yet elegant robe, and his every move was elegant. Although he was not very old, his realm had reached the initial stage of spiritual silence, and he practiced the wind-based Taoism that few people could successfully cultivate. The folding fan in his hand was full of spiritual energy, which was obviously a very high-level magic weapon. Combined with his wind-based spiritual energy, when he fanned it, there was flying sand and rocks in front of him, and wind blades filled the sky. Most of the corpses of mutant beasts on the ground were made by him.

Originally, it shouldn't be so troublesome for these two people to deal with these mutant beasts, but their opponents were quite strong. The mutant beasts besieging them were several times more than the last time they besieged Xu Qingfan. Among them, there were even several extremely large beasts that kept colliding with the four people, and from time to time they were swallowing and spitting out flames and poisonous sand, which was particularly eye-catching. It was obviously a low-level monster transformed into a demon, and it was very difficult to deal with.

But more importantly, the delicate-looking girl and the huge man among the four only had the cultivation of the late and middle stages of the Bigu, and both of them were injured, so they were obviously unable to deal with these mutant beasts. In order to protect the two, the old man and the young master Jia were both worried and could not use their full strength, which led to the stalemate in front of them.

Seeing that the Taoist methods used by the four people in the battle with the mutant beasts were pure and natural, they were obviously from famous families, or at least people of the same path, so Xu Qingfan decided to help the four people after seeing the stalemate. Although Xu Qingfan was afraid of trouble by nature and always adhered to the principle that scholars should do less, this did not mean that Xu Qingfan could do nothing to help.

After making a decision in his heart, Xu Qingfan controlled the "Three-foot Green Silk" and flew quickly into the sky. After using the six-ring flower to quickly deal with more than ten mutant eagles that wanted to attack him, Xu Qingfan stood quietly in the air, his ten fingers changed one after another, and hundreds of dark red vines emerged from Xu Qingfan's fingers, tangled into several large nets in the air and fell from the sky, immediately covering the demonized monsters. Although they could not completely tie up these demonized monsters, they could not escape for a while. Without these demonized monsters leading the attack, the monsters on the ground could not help but stagnate slightly.

This dark red long vine is one of the few gains Xu Qingfan has made in the Southern Wilderness in the past three days. It is called "blood-sucking poison vine". This blood-sucking poison vine is not only tougher than the iron vine that Xu Qingfan used before, but also densely covered with countless thorns on the long vine. These thorns can not only carry toxins that can make people's bodies sore and numb, but also suck the blood of trapped humans or animals, which is extremely powerful.

Then Xu Qingfan did not stop, and changed his finger gestures again. Countless bright red flowers fell from Xu Qingfan's fingers, and turned into flames after falling to the ground. Although these beasts were much stronger after being demonized, the animals' instinct to fear fire remained unchanged. The flames that fell from the sky could not help but cause chaos among the many mutant beasts on the ground.

This was another exotic flower that Xu Qingfan harvested in the Southern Wilderness - "Splitting Flame Flower".

Originally, Xu Qingfan could use the more powerful "Six-diamond Flower", but the explosion of the "Six-diamond Flower" would produce a thick fog, and the four unknown cultivators were still fighting with the mutant beasts on the ground. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Xu Qingfan could only use this Split Flame Flower that could turn into flames, but fortunately the effect was also good.

After doing all this, Xu Qingfan flew quickly towards the four people off the field with the "Three-foot Green Silk" before the dense demonized birds attacked him.

After Xu Qingfan's help, the four cultivators on the ground felt the pressure greatly reduced. They knew that Xu Qingfan was a friend, not an enemy. So when they saw Xu Qingfan flashing and flying towards them, they quickly opened a corner of the protective circle and let Xu Qingfan in.

After Xu Qingfan came to the middle of the four people, he didn't bother to say hello. His fingers changed continuously like orchids blooming. In a very short time, he pinched hundreds of different finger gestures, then put his hand on the ground and shouted: "Get up!!"

Suddenly, four towering trees around the four people rose from the ground. These four trees looked like willow trees, because there were dense willow branches hanging on the branches, but they didn't look like willow trees when they looked closely, because the trunks of these trees were obviously much thicker than ordinary willow trees, and the willow branches hanging on the branches were also wider and longer than ordinary willow branches.

Just when the four people were surprised by the strange Taoist magic that Xu Qingfan suddenly performed, something happened that stunned them. The willow branches on the four willow-like trees suddenly swayed without wind, as if they turned into countless iron whips to whip the mutant beasts rushing towards them and flew back. Each mutant beast that was whipped was extremely skinned and fleshy, and even brains burst.

These four willow-like trees are a kind of strange plant that Xu Qingfan had not been able to use before - "Whip Man Willow".

ps: There are a lot of things to do at night, and I guess I can't go online, so I posted this chapter in advance. 4000 words, please recommend. In addition, the week is almost over, and there are nearly 200 essences. If you want, just type a few words in the comment area. But each person is limited to a maximum of five.
