The next moment, several huge monsters emerged from the ground, with scarlet light flashing in their eyes, and they were obviously controlled by the strange flower.
"It seems we have to get rid of these guards first." Lang Nana said coldly, the talisman in her hand already ignited with flames.
Jiang Qiong clenched his sword and said in a deep voice: "Be careful, the strength of these monsters should not be underestimated."
The battle was about to break out. A monster resembling a giant lizard pounced on Jiang Qiong first, its scales were as hard as iron, and venom spewed from its mouth.
Jiang Qiong dodged the venom attack with a flash, then stabbed the monster's eyes with a sword.
The monster let out a scream, but did not fall down. Instead, it attacked even more frantically.
Nan Fengxue encountered a huge ape monster.
The ape demon's fists were like hammers, leaving deep holes on the ground every time it struck.
Nan Fengxue relied on his agile body to constantly dodge the ape monster's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
His fists were like cannonballs, and every hit made the ape monster retreat several steps.
Lang Nana had an aerial duel with a harpy, whose claws and beak were like sharp blades, and every dive could bring up a gust of wind.
Lang Nana's talisman technique played a huge role at this moment. The talisman paper in her hand turned into flaming arrows, continuously shooting at the eagle monster.
Although the eagle demon was agile, it gradually revealed its flaws under the intensive attacks.
After a fierce battle, the three finally killed all the guarding monsters.
However, most of their physical strength had been consumed and they all had injuries to varying degrees.
"We can't delay any longer. We must destroy that rare flower as soon as possible!" Jiang Qiong said, panting.
The three of them quickly approached the strange flower. However, just as they were about to take action, a thick mist suddenly gushed out from the pistil of the strange flower.
The mist was mixed with a strong floral scent, instantly enveloping the three of them.
Jiang Qiong felt dizzy and the scene in front of her eyes began to distort.
He seemed to see his deepest fears and desires, and his consciousness was gradually pulled into an illusory world.
"This is an illusion!" Jiang Qiong clenched her teeth and tried to stay awake.
He circulated the spiritual power in his body, trying to break free from the constraints of the illusion.
Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue also fell into their own illusions.
Lang Nana saw that she was trapped in a sea of fire, surrounded by ferocious monsters;
Nan Fengxue found himself standing in a ruin, surrounded by countless fallen companions.
Just when the three were about to be completely swallowed up by the illusion, Jiang Qiong suddenly bit the tip of his tongue, and the intense pain made him wake up instantly.
He shouted loudly: "Wake up! This is an illusion!"
When Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue heard Jiang Qiong's voice, they also broke free from the illusion.
The three of them looked at each other, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes.
"The power of this strange flower is too terrifying. We must kill it with one blow!" Jiang Qiong said in a deep voice.
Lang Nana nodded and took out a golden talisman from her arms.
This talisman paper is her most precious treasure, which can release a powerful purifying force.
She stuck the talisman paper on the sword, and it instantly ignited with golden flames.
Nan Fengxue took a deep breath and concentrated all the energy and blood in his body into his fists.
His fist emitted a dazzling light, like a star about to explode.
Jiang Qiong gripped the sword tightly, and the sword was covered with a faint green light.
He poured all his spiritual power into the sword, with the tip of the sword pointing at the pistil of the strange flower.
"Go!" Jiang Qiong gave an order and the three of them launched an attack at the same time.
Lang Nana's sword drew a golden arc of light, going straight to the pistil of the strange flower;
Nan Fengxue's fist smashed into the rhizome of the strange flower like a meteorite; Jiang Qiong's sword stabbed into the core of the strange flower.
The three forces hit the strange flower at the same time, and the flower let out a shrill scream, and its petals began to fall off rapidly.
The mist gradually dissipated and the fragrance of the flowers became fainter.
Eventually, the exotic flower completely withered and turned into a pile of ashes.
The fog in the valley also dissipated, and the sun shone on the earth again.
Jiang Qiong and the other two let out a long sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground.
Their physical strength was exhausted, but their hearts were filled with a sense of accomplishment.
"We succeeded." Lang Nana said softly with a smile on her face.
Nan Fengxue nodded and said, "This land has finally returned to peace."
Jiang Qiong looked at the sky in the distance and said slowly: "But our path of cultivation is still long, and the challenges ahead may be even more difficult."
At the moment when the rare flower completely withered and turned into ashes, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from the pistil.
In the light, several strange fruits slowly condensed into shape, suspended in mid-air, and exuded an enticing aroma.
These fruits are as big as fists, and their skin is crystal clear, as if they were carved from the purest crystal.
The colors of the fruits vary, some are deep purple, like the brightest stars in the night sky;
Some are a fiery red, like burning flames; others are a warm green, as if containing endless vitality.
The surface of each fruit is covered with fine lines, through which runes can be vaguely seen flowing, emitting a faint spiritual light.
"These fruits...are they made from the essence of rare flowers?" Lang Nana widened her eyes, with a hint of surprise in her tone.
Jiang Qiong nodded and said in a deep voice: “Although the strange flower is evil, it condenses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and these fruits are likely to be its final essence.
If we can absorb it, it may be of great benefit to our practice."
Nan Fengxue licked her lips, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes: "What are you waiting for? Try it now!"
The three of them looked at each other and each reached out to take a fruit.
Jiang Qiong chose the purple fruit, Lang Nana picked up the red fruit, and Nan Fengxue held the green fruit.
The fruit feels cool and delicate to the touch, as if you are holding a piece of warm jade.
Jiang Qiong took a deep breath and gently bit the fruit.
The flesh melts in the mouth, turning into a sweet juice that flows down the throat into the body.
In an instant, he felt a tremendous amount of spiritual power erupting in his body, washing over his meridians and flesh like a flood breaking through a dam.
"What a strong spiritual power!" Jiang Qiong couldn't help but exclaimed, and quickly sat down cross-legged, practicing the technique to guide the spiritual power. Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue also ate the fruit, and at the same time, they showed a look of shock on their faces.
Lang Nana's red fruit turned into a hot spiritual power, burning in her body like a flame, making her blood boil.
Nan Fengxue's green fruit turned into a warm spiritual power, nourishing his flesh and blood like a spring breeze, making his body become strong at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The bodies of the three people began to emit a faint light, and runes could be vaguely seen flowing in the light, as if their flesh and blood were undergoing some kind of transformation.
Jiang Qiong felt that his energy and blood were increasing rapidly, and his body, which was already close to its limit, was strengthened again.
His bones made a "crackling" sound, as if they were growing again; his muscles became tighter, and every fiber was filled with explosive power;
His meridians were also widened, and the speed at which his spiritual energy circulated was several times faster than before.
What surprised him most was that a small golden elixir had condensed in his dantian. The golden elixir contained tremendous energy, like a star that could explode at any time.
The changes in Lang Nana were equally amazing. Her skin became whiter and more delicate, as crystal clear as jade.
Her energy and blood became even hotter, like a burning flame.
Her talisman skills were also greatly enhanced with the nourishment of this energy. The talisman paper in her hand burned more fiercely, and the color of the flame gradually changed from red to gold.
The changes in south wind and snow are more intuitive.
Her energy and blood became even stronger, like a volcano that could erupt at any time.
Her fists emitted a dazzling light, and every swing brought up a gust of wind, as if even the air was torn apart by her strength.
As time passed, the breathing of the three people gradually stabilized.
When they opened their eyes again, there was a sharp light flashing in them, as if they were reborn.
"My energy and blood power has at least doubled!" Nan Fengxue clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his body, and couldn't help laughing.
Lang Nana nodded and said softly: "My spell skills have also been greatly improved. Now I should be able to cast higher-level spells."
Jiang Qiong took a deep breath, feeling the presence of the golden elixir in his body, his heart filled with joy.
He knew that his cultivation had reached a new level and he was one step closer to a higher realm.
“These fruits are indeed extraordinary.”
Jiang Qiong stood up and looked around, and found that there were still a few fruits that had not completely dissipated in the ashes of the strange flower.
He walked forward, picked up the fruit and put it in his arms.
"These fruits may still come in handy." Jiang Qiong said, "Let's continue moving forward. There may be more opportunities in this valley."
Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue nodded, and after a short rest, the three of them continued to move deeper into the valley.
The steps of the three people were lighter than before, and their breath was steadier. It was obvious that because of the nourishment of the fruit, their strength had been greatly improved.
As they went deeper, the scene in the valley gradually changed.
Some strange plants began to appear on the originally desolate land. The leaves of these plants had a metallic luster, and their stems were covered with fine runes, obviously affected by some kind of power.
"These plants... seem to contain powerful energy." Lang Nana reached out and touched a leaf, which actually made a clanging sound, as if it were as hard as metal.
Jiang Qiong nodded and said, "This valley is indeed not simple. We have to be careful."
At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the distance. The three looked up alertly and saw a huge monster slowly walking towards them.
This monster looks like a tiger, but it has a pair of huge wings on its back, which are covered with sharp bone spurs, and its eyes are flashing scarlet light.
"It's the Flying Wing Tiger!" Nan Fengxue exclaimed in a low voice, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
The flying winged tiger is an extremely rare monster. It is very powerful and extremely fast. Even those who are at the Jindan realm dare not provoke it easily.
"It seems we have to join forces to deal with it." Jiang Qiong gripped the sword tightly and said in a deep voice.
Lang Nana nodded, and the talisman in her hand was already burning.
Nan Fengxue took a deep breath and concentrated all the energy and blood in his body into his fists.
The battle was about to begin. The flying tiger let out a roar that shook the heavens, then spread its wings and pounced on the three people like a flash of lightning.
Its claws are like sharp blades, and every swing can bring up a gust of wind.
Jiang Qiong dodged the flying wing tiger's attack and then stabbed its wings with a sword.
The flying wing tiger reacted extremely quickly, flapping its wings and directly deflecting Jiang Qiong's sword.
Lang Nana took the opportunity to cast a spell. The talisman paper in her hand turned into flaming arrows and shot towards the flying tiger's eyes.
The flying winged tiger roared, flapped its wings, and blocked all the flaming arrows.
Nan Fengxue rushed forward and punched the flying tiger in the abdomen.
The flying wing tiger felt pain, let out an angry roar, and then slapped Nan Fengxue with one claw.
Although Nan Fengxue had a strong body, he did not dare to take the claw head-on and had to retreat quickly.
After a fierce battle, the three finally found the weakness of the Flying Wing Tiger.
Jiang Qiong stabbed the base of its wings with a sword, Lang Nana's flaming arrow hit its eyes, and Nan Fengxue's fist hit its abdomen.
The flying wing tiger let out a shrill scream, and finally fell heavily to the ground, without a breath left.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Although the battle was difficult, their strength was further honed.
"Keep moving forward. There may be more challenges and opportunities in this valley." Jiang Qiong said slowly, looking at the sky in the distance.
Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue nodded, and the figures of the three gradually disappeared into the depths of the valley.
The body of the flying wing tiger fell to the ground. Its huge body was like a small hill. Its scarlet blood slowly flowed, dyeing the surrounding ground red.
Jiang Qiong walked forward, took a careful look, then took out a sharp dagger from his arms and began to dissect the monster's body.
“The skin of the flying tiger is extremely tough and can be used to make armor;
The bone spurs on its wings are as sharp as knives, and are excellent materials for refining magical instruments.
As for its flesh and blood, it contains powerful energy, and eating it can strengthen the qi and blood."
While performing the dissection, Jiang Qiong explained to Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue.
Lang Nana nodded, took out a special cloth bag from the storage bag, and carefully collected the fur and bone spurs of the flying tiger.
Nan Fengxue helped cut the monster's flesh and blood into large pieces and put them into another cloth bag.
"This flesh and blood is enough for us to eat for several days." Nan Fengxue said with a smile, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.
After the three of them packed up, they continued to move deeper into the valley. As they went deeper, the surrounding scene became more bizarre.
The rock walls on both sides of the valley are covered with gleaming minerals, and all kinds of exotic plants grow on the ground. Some of the plant leaves have a metallic luster, while others emit a faint fragrance.
After walking for a while, the three of them felt a little tired.
Jiang Qiong looked up at the sky and found that the sun was setting, so she suggested: "It's getting late, let's find a place to rest and eat something." (End of this chapter)
