Wet viviparity

Chapter 625: Strange Bird, Erxianzhi
In Qing Jiao's jade slip, there are records of two kinds of fairy ganoderma in the forbidden area, which are called "Guangyuan Erzhi".

The first kind is called Yantaizhi, which is purple in color, shaped like a sunflower, with leaves that resemble flying swallows, bright and clear. Eating just one plant will allow one to obtain the fruit of an earthly immortal, and be allowed to enter the Huangting Palace, and be worshipped as the Huangting Dragon and Tiger Great Master.

The second kind is called Night Cave Ganoderma. It is green in color, and its fruit is white like a plum. It is three or four feet tall, and its leaves are like cypress. When viewed at night, its fruit looks like moonlight illuminating a cave room.

There are nine fruits on one plant. When the fruit falls to the ground, it will grow larger in a moment, like a mirror plate with a diameter of seven inches, and one or two inches thick when touching the ground. When viewed at night, it looks like a cow's eye moving its eyes. Taking it can make you become an immortal, increase your lifespan by three hundred years, and bring endless benefits to your spiritual practice.

In the jade slip, the first kind of Swallow Fetus Ganoderma grows in a stone cave near the black box in the forbidden area. However, from ancient times to the present, no one has ever seen it, so naturally there is no way to verify the authenticity of this fairy ganoderma.

The cultivators of ancient and modern times come to this ancient water palace mainly to explore the second kind of Night Cave Ganoderma. This Ganoderma has nine fruits on a plant and grows in rocky places. The poorer the mountains and the worse the water, the more this Ganoderma likes to grow there.

Ji Ming turned into a strong gust of wind and fled to all parts of the forbidden area.

During the escape, I finally got to see the general picture of this barren land. Mud and sand were spread all over it, like a flat black carpet, with occasional bulges like a belly, and there must be Tai Sui buried deep underneath.

After escaping far enough, I gradually saw different terrains. Although the soil was still black mud and black sand, it was always a different change.

Ji Ming knew that he could not continue searching mindlessly, but the Green Dragon had been defeated several times by him, so it must be hiding in the forbidden area, and it would be difficult to find it by ordinary means. This way, it seemed that the enemy was in the dark and he was in the light.

After a little thought, Ji Ming began to use the relic magnetic bottle to sense the tools made of five metals in the four directions.

The first thing I sensed was an object in the southwest that was very sharp. After a quick feel, I knew it was Master Yuan Ren's small golden leek knife. In the same place, there was an object that was both heavy and tall. It must be Hui Longgu's Saturn Divine Wheel.

"Go or not."

Ji Ming was hesitant and hesitated, which was unusual for him.

He had just taken the bipolar golden magnetite mother in the sun phase. Although the stone mother melted spontaneously in the bottle, it had not been refined by any rituals and it was easy for Hui Longgu and others to see through the truth. By then, even if he relied on his sharp tongue and made some points, there was still the risk of the stone mother being taken back.

Besides, the way he came to the forbidden area was strictly speaking a private crossing, so it would be better not to meet these real people.

After another sense, he realized the location of the Kaiyang Sword and immediately turned into wind and escaped. Soon he came to a strange place that looked like a towering tree and an ancient stone pagoda. As soon as he arrived, he saw sword lights weaving densely in the sky, encircling several strange birds.

Those strange birds all had human faces and bird bodies, two short horns on their heads, wings spread out, a halberd in one hand, scales on their abdomen, and fan-shaped tails. They were fighting with the sword light, and seemed to be struggling to survive.

Ji Ming was not in a hurry to show up, but hid and watched first.

Outside the strange tree, about a hundred feet away, densely woven sword lights pressed the strange birds to the ground.

The light from the Kaiyang sword could cut gold and jade with ease, but on the bodies of these strange birds, it only created a string of sparks without hurting their flesh and bones.

The strange birds were very brave and were not afraid of the light of Kaiyang Sword. The long spears in their hands made a whirring sound as they were waved, which was very impressive. It was obvious that these strange birds were all extremely powerful.

Gu Cunfeng, who was well adapted to the sword, fought for a while and roughly figured out the moves of the strange birds. Although they were brave, their moves were old-fashioned and all of them were stupid routines, like ordinary warriors dancing with spears, wasting their supernatural powers.

The light of Kaiyang's sword changed immediately, becoming flexible and strange, like a butterfly flying through flowers.

The strange birds were obviously confused and began to be exhausted. Soon, even the long spears in their hands were picked up by the sword light. Once these long spears fell to the ground, there was a loud bang, and a large amount of mud and dust was raised. Ji Ming appeared on the ground and pulled out a long spear. It was as heavy as his relic bottle.

The style of this long halberd is definitely not a modern one. Even in the Tianzhou and Daxia dynasties, the halberds were not of this style. This halberd is ten feet long, with a moon-shaped blade just below the halberd head, which is perpendicular to the halberd head with the blade facing upwards.

Ji Ming thought about it. He felt that he had seen it in some ancient book, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

At this time, those strange birds picked up the grass branches inserted at their waists and pointed them towards the Kaiyang sword light together. A flock of birds rushed out of the strange tree, there were thousands of them, including cranes, eagles, crows and flying swallows.

The sword flashed in the air, and thousands of birds fell down.

Ji Ming picked up several dead birds on the ground, such as swallows and crows. All of them had underfed wings and some were deformed, with either missing claws or eyes, or simply three pairs of wings, which was very strange.

At this time, the strange birds had dispersed, and the strange tree that required three or four people to hug began to shake violently. There was a humming sound in the tree, and then hot air spurted out, and green flames floated out and hit the Kaiyang sword light.

After doing this time and again, Gu Cunfeng no longer had the will to continue the stalemate. A hot haze appeared outside the sword light, and the green flame touched it, dispersing into wisps of green smoke.

The next moment, the sword light, dragging a hot haze, circled around the strange tree, and the strange tree was immediately cut in half, with the upper half falling down. It turned out that the strange tree was hollow, with many stone chambers built in it, layer upon layer.

Inside the fallen upper half of the tree, layers of stone chambers were knocked open, and a giant bird emerged from them.

It seemed as if it had been free for a long time. It chirped happily, then flapped its wings and flew into the sky, rushing into the inner formation of the ancient abyss. But after only a few breaths, the giant bird fell from the inner formation in the air and died on the ground.

The Kaiyang sword light went in and out of the lower half of the strange tree, took out a grass fungus and a box of elixirs, and left happily. Before leaving, Gu Cunfeng glanced at Ji Ming.

"Brother Gu, you are so unwilling to go treasure hunting with me."

Ji Ming sighed in his heart.

Gu Cunfeng obviously understood that if he was with Lingxuzi, only Lingxuzi would eat the meat while he would drink the soup, so he quickly searched for a while and then left.

Even if there might be other secrets and treasures here, he was not willing to drink soup beside Ji Ming. As a well-known swordsman in the two northern states, Gu Cunfeng had his own integrity.

After Gu Cunfeng left, several strange birds hugged each other in the mess, sobbing and crying. The death of the giant bird in particular made them heartbroken, and some of them even wanted to commit suicide on the spot.

Ji Ming stopped them immediately and sent out a gust of wind to blow the strange birds towards him.

When the strange birds saw Ji Ming and the human face on their necks, they became full of fighting spirit again. They surrounded Ji Ming in the middle. These strange birds were all two or three meters tall, which was indeed very oppressive.

"Evil creature, why don't you retreat?"

Ji Ming slapped his head and showed his magic talisman.
