Xiu Xianzhi, I will support you this time

Jin Yuan and his party were resting at the same place, and there were bursts of thunder in the distance, but all disciples who have read the Introduction to the Basic Mind Method of Qing Xuanzong know that this is a sign that someone has advanced to the alchemy.

Just now Wenqing chased after the white spirit beast, and Jin Qi, who had the highest cultivation level, worried that he was in danger, so he also chased after him.Everyone can guess that the thunder now is the catastrophe caused by Jin Qi's advancement.

No one dared to get close to Tianjie. If they accidentally fell into the attack range, it would be no joke.Therefore, none of them leaned up to check what happened. They just crossed their legs and prayed silently: I hope Jin Qi can survive this calamity smoothly.If Jin Qi succeeds in advancing, they will get a Golden Core stage monk in their team, which will be a powerful boost, making them more likely to win against the Gu Poison King.

And if Jin Qi can't make it through...

Without a peak foundation cultivator, the future will only be more difficult, and it is unknown whether they can successfully eliminate the Gu Poison King.

Everyone stared at Zi Lei in the distance without blinking, one, two, three.After the three purple thunders passed, no sound could be heard anymore, everything before seemed to be just an illusion.The disciples trembled slightly in their hearts, and sighed almost inaudibly.Jin Qi, he is afraid that he has already fallen.

Sure enough, not long after, Wen Qing came back, holding Jin Qi in his arms who had been shattered beyond recognition by Zi Lei, with a solemn expression: "Senior Brother Jin Qi..."

"Hey..." Jin Yuan and Jin Qi are disciples of the same line, they are as close as brothers. Seeing this, they hurriedly took over Jin Qi, put it down carefully, and looked disappointed, "Senior brother can't survive the catastrophe."

Wen Qing nodded: "I was not far away when he crossed the catastrophe. The power of Zi Lei is too strong. Even if the brother took a lot of sprint advancement medicine, he still couldn't resist it."

In fact, the advancement came too hastily at that time, Jin Qi only had time to take out the Tianxiang Shuxin powder from the Qiankun bag, and hadn't had time to swallow it at all.In the end, everything was cheaper for Wen Qing.With Wenqing's cultivation level, Jin Qi's Qiankun bag will not be able to be opened for a while, and he dare not do such suspicious things, and Jin Qi's other resources are the same.

After everyone mourned, for the strength of the team, they divided up the items in Jin Qi's bag.Before Wenqing, the spirit beast made the most meritorious deeds, was not weak in itself, and lost his good partner who fought side by side, so he was always a little depressed. Therefore, Jin Yuan made the decision and distributed the most powerful attack weapon in Jin Qi's hands - the copper whip over him.In addition, Jin Yuan also gave him some spiritual stones and some wood-type elixir to treat internal injuries. He accepted the spirit stones bluntly, but he replaced the elixir with several wood-type spiritual herbs.

The elixir on Jin Qi's body is not as effective as the remaining pills in his hand, but spirit grass is the raw material for making elixirs, and he can use spirit stones to cultivate wood-type spirit herbs with good effects. No matter how you look at it, it is more cost-effective to use spiritual herbs.

He said plainly: "Since we have taken offensive weapons, we will leave the wound medicine to the disciples who need it more."

Everyone thought he was selfless.Because even if other people took the spirit grass, they would not be able to reproduce it in large quantities. For them, it is natural that the elixir that can be taken directly is more useful.

After resting overnight, everyone set off early in the morning, heading for the deepest part of the poisonous miasma forest.

The poisonous miasma forest seems to be split into two parts consciously by nature, one part is the periphery of the forest, and the other part is the deepest part of the forest.And the method of this division is——

The ubiquitous poisonous miasma.

As soon as they stepped into a certain area, a thick fog suddenly filled the surrounding area.The fog came quickly and violently, enveloping all the surrounding air in an instant, Wen Qing looked back subconsciously, and couldn't find a way out.At the same time, the whole world suddenly quieted down, like a silent movie, the sounds of insects and birds that could be heard before, and even the sound of wind and grass, all disappeared.

"It's getting foggy!"

"This fog is really evil." Everyone whispered.

Wen Qing scanned the system for a while, his complexion changed, and he raised his voice: "Everyone! This is not ordinary mist, but poisonous miasma gas. If you smell it too much, it will lead to paralysis and even loss of cultivation! Be sure to take precautions! "Speaking of this, he directly held his breath.With the current level of cultivation, holding one's breath for two hours is no longer a matter of effort.After holding his breath to the limit, he only needs to explore the mustard space and take a breath of fresh air before he can continue to move freely.

One of the characteristics of the mustard space is that it is made of real objects, and it is a real space.Not only can Wenqing's spiritual consciousness penetrate, but his physical body can also penetrate.I discovered this because after Chi Yan said the words "I know who the mastermind behind Jin Qi is" yesterday, he passed out neatly, and Wen Qing was so frightened that he forgot to manipulate his spiritual sense. Holding him directly and breaking into the mustard space, I accidentally learned such a secret.It was not discovered before, mainly because he held a preconceived view that the mustard space is manipulated by divine consciousness, while ignoring other possibilities.

Everyone was shocked after hearing Wen Qing's words.At this time, four big characters suddenly appeared in everyone's mind: poisonous miasma forest!At first, they only thought that this place got its name because of the many poisonous insects, but they didn't expect that it was worthy of the name, and it was a real forest full of "poisonous miasmas"!All of a sudden, those who possessed magic weapons for defense took out their magic weapons one after another, and those who possessed the elixir and spirit grass that could dispel the poisonous miasma also took action one after another.

It's just that the poisonous miasma is too thick, which not only closes the vision, but also prevents them from using their spiritual sense to explore the surroundings.In desperation, everyone had to shout to each other to determine their position.

Things are going wrong.According to Wen Qing's map and the information about the poisonous miasma forest gathered by everyone, they are only a day's journey away from the deepest part of the poisonous miasma forest, which is also the place where the poison king is entrenched, but for some reason, they find a certain direction and go straight , It took three days, but the surrounding area was still the same as when I came here, a dead silence.

Wen Qing was in a heavy heart.In just three days, the shouts that can be heard around him have become less and less, and the companions disappeared one by one.If things go on like this, before he finds the Gu Poison King, there will be no companions who can accompany him side by side. Even he gradually realizes that even if he holds his breath, the poisonous miasma will still invade his body from every inch of his skin. , making him feel more and more tired.

Those disciples of the same school must be like this, getting more and more tired, and finally couldn't bear it and fell to the ground, unable to get up again...

There is no way to solve this, unless Wen Qing hides in the mustard space and cannot come out, otherwise he will definitely come into contact with the ubiquitous poisonous miasma in the air.In desperation, he could only spend more time in the mustard space to absorb the pure spiritual energy. By running his mind, part of the poisonous miasma could be eliminated.In order to avoid long-term exposure to poisonous miasma gas, causing the body to overload and fall to the ground like the companions around.

Three days later, Chi Yan finally woke up from the coma.Wen Qing immediately sensed the changes in Jiezi's space, and jumped into it.Chi Yan was lying next to a fire-attribute plant, his eyes lit up when he saw him coming.Wen Qing was the first to say, "Why did you faint?" At that time, he used the system to check, but the system only said that Chi Yan was in a normal sleep after his strength was exhausted, and Wen Qing had no choice but to let him cultivate in the space.

Chi Yan rubbed against his palm: "It took some effort at that time. Because I wanted to find out the mastermind behind Jin Qi."

"How to check? Didn't Jin Qi already..."

"By inheriting the secret method—the art of refining the soul, you can see what you want. It's just that this method consumes too much, and it has just experienced a thunderstorm, causing certain damage to the body. Even a burning fruit is not enough to support it. You're worried."

"It's good that you're fine. The internal injury hasn't healed yet, why don't you drink the Nine-turn Green Lotus Water now?" Wen Qing said, stretching his hand forward, and the Green Lotus Water naturally flew into his hand.

"No hurry, look at this." Chi Yan spit out a ball of flames from his mouth, and the flames slowly floated to Wen Qing as if with autonomous consciousness, forming a square fire curtain. The fire curtain flickered for a while, and gradually gathered some colorful colors After a short while, Jin Qi's appearance clearly appeared on the fire curtain.

Like a high-definition movie in the previous life, Jin Qi is located in a certain hall of Emperor Xuanzong of the Qing Dynasty, and he bowed his head and said respectfully: "Master."

The screen switched to the seat in the hall, and Jin Qi's master, that is, Master Yun Huai of Tianquan Peak, raised his hand: "Get up. I will give you a task."

Wen Qing stared wide-eyed, looking at Yun Huai in the picture.A smile floated on Yunhuai's face. I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Wen Qing always felt that this smile had bad intentions.Yun Huai said: "This time, you and Jin Yuan led all the disciples to go to practice. On the way, you took one life for me."

"who is it?"

Yun Huai smiled sinisterly: "Yun Xu's closed disciple, Jin Qing."

"He's just a brat, why..."

Yun Huai interrupted him: "You don't need to ask any more questions."

Jin Qi bowed his hands and retreated out of the hall, but before he fully retreated, Yun Huai, who was sitting on the first seat, stood up and said bitterly: "Hmph, last time I sent Elder Tian Scatter to assassinate, Even if Jinqing is a fateful boy, he fell for some reason before Tianxie found him, I hope you will be more reliable in your work and live up to the trust of the real person." Jin Qi turned back, bowed again, and then retreated.

Wen Qing and Chi Yan looked at each other: "It was him. But I have never had any enmity with this Yun Huai. I don't know why he wanted to assassinate me."

"When we get back to Emperor Xuanzong of the Qing Dynasty, we will ask in person." Chi Yan said in a deep voice.

"Since Jin Qi and Jin Yuan are disciples of the same line, I don't know if Jin Yuan knows about this matter?"

"There is no sign of this in Jin Qi's memory, but look at this." With a wave of Chi Yan's hand, the screen on the fire screen switched to the scene of their mummy village in the southern region.At that time, it should have just finished solving a village, and everyone was sitting on the ground slumped, Jin Yuan walked out leisurely, after a while, Jin Qi watched his back and followed him.

Jin Qi stopped him and asked bluntly: "Several people have died, why don't you ask for help? You even have to trek to the Western Regions?"

Jin Yuan always had a smile on his face, and was not annoyed by Jin Qi's questioning: "Experience is to seek opportunities in danger, and casualties are inevitable. Master has figured out the cause of the mummy, why not take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

Jin Qi was angry on his face: "Is it really a pursuit of victory? If there is not that white spirit beast in the last wave of mummies, we would not be able to escape the word 'death'."

The two quarreled for a few words, but Jin Qi finally failed to persuade Jin Yuan to change his mind, so he had to stay where he was angrily, watching Jin Yuan go back to the village.After Jin Yuan disappeared, he stood in the ice and snow, and said to himself: "The spirit beast is so powerful, if you want to successfully complete the task assigned by the master, you have to get rid of the spirit beast first. As long as they don't stop When paying attention, sprinkle a little nourishing poison powder on the wounded prey captured by the spirit beast, and it will accomplish great things."

The memory playback ended here, and the curtain of fire gradually dissipated in the air.

Wen Qing clenched his fists, recalling the scene of Chi Yan swallowing that piece of animal meat in Jin Qi's words. "Nursing Poison Powder" is a strange poison. After the spirit beast took it for the first time, there is no abnormality. The toxin occupies the body of the spirit beast. Using the spirit beast as a petri dish, it turns the spirit beast into a "poisonous beast" , and people or animals will die immediately after taking this poisonous beast.If Chi Yan hadn't accepted the ancient inheritance, I'm afraid he might have followed his way.

Chi Yan comforted him: "Jin Qi is dead. After his death, I refined his soul. It was extremely painful during the soul refining, and it can be regarded as revenge for your worries." Then he changed the subject, "Is it all poison outside now? Miasma, unable to move an inch?"

"Yes. I haven't found the exit after walking for three days."

"There is a way to solve it completely. You take the nine-turn green lotus water. The green lotus is a holy thing that can drive away all evil things. After taking it, it can not only deal with this poisonous miasma, but also completely get rid of the poison in your inner core of the sky. You were attacked by the dark elements. Your cultivation base must be raised to another level. After we go out, we will be more confident in dealing with the poison king. Otherwise, we don’t know how much time it will take to get out of this place.” Chi Yan poured the green lotus water Pushed in front of Wenqing.

Wen Qing thought for a while, and said, "Okay. I still have enough spirit stones in my hand. I will plant another plant. You can absorb this bottle of holy water as soon as possible." You have to rely on yourself.However, he can't move Chi Yan's Qinglian, and he can make more money after the spirit stone is gone. Even if all the resources are exhausted, he doesn't want Chi Yan to suffer any more.

Chi Yan waited beside him to watch him cultivate a nine-turn green lotus and make it into green lotus water before drinking the green lotus water with him and starting to practice.

Wen Qing closed his eyes, and as soon as the green lotus water entered his stomach, it brought a burst of pleasant coolness, which made his whole body feel comfortable, and the oppression of the poisonous miasma in his chest for three days was also swept away.It's impossible to describe that kind of pleasure unless you have really tasted it.Wen Qing only felt that every inch of filth in his body was being gently expelled by the green lotus water, and the bones and flesh were almost purer than that of a newborn baby.

***

After January.

One person and one beast opened their eyes at the same time, the light in their eyes was introverted, and the whole body exuded a holy aura.Wen Qing inspected the aura in his body and found that he had successfully broken through the middle stage and entered the late stage of foundation establishment. Moreover, due to the actual combat some time ago, plus his perception of the sky thunder when he formed the alchemy, and the complete clarity of the dark elements in his body, all kinds of factors combined , leading to this advanced step very smoothly, and even after the advanced step, it didn't take long for the fluctuating aura in the body to completely stabilize.

He happily exchanged his thoughts with Chi Yan. Chi Yan is still in the early stage of Yaodan, but his strength has increased a lot, but there is still a gap from the middle stage of Yaodan.After the conversation, Wenqing prepared to leave the mustard space and set off again.Chi Yan suddenly stopped him: "I was impulsive last time."

"Huh?" Wen Qing stopped and looked back at him.

"At that time, I was only thinking about solving Jin Qi, but I forgot that if there are other disciples in the future, I should not show up. Especially now, you will face the Gu Poison King in the demon core period. I... don't worry."

"Can't you turn into another spirit beast?"

Chi Yan shook his head.

"Then now, you can only reappear in front of the disciples of Qingxuanzong in an open and honest manner after you have transformed into a form." Wen Qing didn't think much about it. If there is a life-threatening moment, you can't even save your life. How can you care about Chi Yan? exposed problems.

"You know, there are two ways to change form, one is to get the Dao, and the other is to accept the fruit of change."

"Yes." Wen Qing nodded.Of course, there is no need to consider Dao Ascension at the moment, but the Transformation Fruit is too difficult to find, and even the system cannot detect its possible location.Wen Qing even guessed that this miraculous plant might have been extinct many years ago.

Chi Yan looked at him quietly with deep eyes: "Actually, there is another way."
