Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 401 Gourd Stone

A black zombie pounced forward, with light yellow saliva flowing from its mouth and a blazing red light in its eye sockets.

It can smell the fragrance of the flesh and blood of the enemy in front of it, a smell different from that of other monks.

Not only is it tastier, you get extra benefits too.

The other black zombie released the earth escape technique, and its body suddenly sank into the ground, preparing to attack from underground.

They have been raised by the Disha Sect for seven or eight hundred years, and now they have become quite intelligent and understand some tactical coordination.

Ji An did not move. The Wu Ji apricot yellow flag fluttered with golden flowers. The moment the zombie pounced on him, he activated the Geng Jin Soul-Slaying Sword.

From the very beginning, his goal was clear, to kill the only remaining monk and withstand the attacks of the black zombies with top-grade spiritual weapons and defensive spells.

After repeated actual combat tests, he found that as long as the enemy's attack did not reach the Jindan level, he could rest assured.

Sang You was also waiting for an opportunity. He was secretly happy when he saw that the enemy was holding on without dodging.

He knew very well how powerful the black zombie was. In a confrontation, it could suppress a physical cultivator at the Chaoyuan stage.

Especially the black zombie that attacked head-on originally belonged to Sangji. It was only one step away from being promoted to the bronze zombie level. Even a physical cultivator at the perfect level of the Chaoyuan period was no match for it.

"The enemy is arrogant!"

When Sang You saw the ground bulge, he stretched out a pair of black hands. He immediately activated the Bone Soul-Eroding Shuttle and attacked the enemy in a triangular shape.

There are black zombies attacking from the front and on the ground, and the enemy can only dodge to the left, right and sky.

And his Bone Soul-Eroding Shuttle completely blocked all the enemy's escape routes.

There was a flash of viciousness and satisfaction in his eyes. He saw the earth-element brilliance erupting from the enemy's spiritual weapon, but his spiritual weapon was not good at breaking through, but was specifically designed to break this kind of spiritual shield!

The Bone Soul-Eroding Shuttle was made using the sect's white bone ritual, and it contains a powerful corpse poison. If it is contaminated with even a little bit, it will corrode your bones and rot your flesh.

It can also release soul-related toxins. If a cultivator is infected, he will suffer from dizziness and difficulty casting spells at the very least, or faint directly at the worst. Low-level cultivators will even be killed by the poison.

Sang You felt excited. No matter whether the enemy hid or not, victory was already beckoning to him.

What he didn't know was that a ray of silver light was activated when the Bone Soul-Eroding Shuttle just flew out, and its flight trajectory happened to be in his blind spot.

The black zombie in front of him did not have much of a delaying effect, and the Gengjin Soul-Slaying Sword passed through it, and at this time it burst out with the sharp and murderous power of the gold magic.

The next moment, the deadly silver light shot into Sang You's eye sockets and went out of the back of his head. It still had some force left and shot out over a dozen feet before slowly dissipating.

Sang You no longer has to worry about the future, all his worries have left him, but Ji An still has a lot of problems to consider.

The attacks of the two black zombies came one after another. He used all his strength to activate the Wu Ji Xing Huang Flag, and all the spiritual power stored in the spiritual weapon burst out in an instant.

Above his head, the flaming cloud transformed into a phoenix, and its fierce roar echoed through the night sky.

The phoenix emitted a fiery glow and pounced on the black zombie that was rushing towards it.

Han Yan in the sky launched an attack, and the Sun-Swallowing Pearl sprayed out a pillar of fire with red and gold, which also rushed towards the black zombie that was attacking his junior brother head-on.

Ji An no longer paid attention to the front because the attack from underground had already arrived and the Xinghuang Flag's underground defense was relatively weak.

The black zombie broke through the defense of the spiritual weapon and grabbed one of the target's ankles. With just a little force, it could break the target's bones, at least that's what it thought.

Ji An had already held his breath. He saw the black zombie's huge head, as big as a watermelon, emerging from the ground, disgusting mucus flowing out of the zombie's mouth, and a cold air coming out of its mouth and nose.

He pinched the Gengjin Soul-Slaying Sword, and a silver light swept out, and the black zombie's head soared into the sky.

On the other side, the black zombie that was rushing towards it was hit by two fire attacks in succession. Its hard skin, which was no longer afraid of the burning flames, immediately felt the pain.

The powerful explosion directly blocked its forward momentum and blew it back several feet.

Without Sang You's restraint, the two black zombies beside him immediately went crazy and pounced straight towards Ji An.

The fragrance contained in the flesh and blood of the monk in front of them had already made them salivate.

Han Yan's defensive puppet fell from the sky. The gorilla's body grew huge and slammed heavily on the path of the black zombies.

The seal in Ji An's hand changed, he pinched the ground with his fingers and turned it into steel, and the yellow spiritual light quickly spread outward from under his feet.

The relatively soft soil immediately became as hard as iron. Next, it was time to deal with a few zombies.

These black zombies have lost control and are left with only bloodthirsty instincts.

The defense they were proud of was no different from paper under the Gengjin Soul-Slaying Sword.

The battle ended quickly, with body parts scattered all over the ground.

Jinmao and other beasts returned to their master, and Dahuang let out a cowardly growl at the corpse lying on the ground.

"The zombies of Dishamen are of no value to us."

Ji An's mouth twitched. The zombies' bones were highly poisonous and could not be used.

The enemy would probably not even dare to buy the spiritual weapon made from bones in the black market in Nanzhou.

Han Yan's heartbeat slowly returned to normal. The attack was sudden and ended quickly, lasting only half a quarter of an hour.

She originally thought that she would have to hand over her trump card in order to escape, but she did not expect her junior brother to be so powerful.

At this moment, she completely forgot the other party's identity as a spiritual farmer.

"Junior Brother, do you think these people have been targeting us since we were in Rotten Peach Mountain?"

Ji An nodded slightly and said:

"It is very likely that a cultivator from a prestigious Nascent Soul Sect would actually become a Tribulation Cultivator. This really speaks volumes about the culture of the Disha Sect.

Senior Sister, quickly pack up your spoils and leave."

The successive deaths of four Chaoyuan-stage cultivators were no small matter, and he couldn't predict whether there were other high-level cultivators behind these people, but it wasn't advisable to stay here for long.

Han Yan smiled bitterly, "Ah, I encountered such a disaster when I first arrived in Nanzhou. From now on, I must completely avoid contact with the monks of the Disha Sect."

When something like this happens, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, their situation becomes delicate.

She activated the Sun-Swallowing Pearl, and the spiritual weapon emitted a thousand-foot-long golden light, rendering the area as bright as day.

With the help of the light, the two of them quickly collected the scattered bone spiritual weapons and any other valuable things on the ground, then burned the corpses and flew towards the Burial Yin Mountains on the clouds.

They circled in the sky, gathered up the clouds and summoned their respective golden-winged eagles, then flew away to the northwest.

We can't stay here for long. Who knows when the monks from the Disha Sect will come looking for us.

Three days later, Ji An and his companions arrived at a mountain range. They saw undulating peaks towering into the clouds, green mountains surrounding clear water, and water flowing through steep gorges.

The water vapor is vast, the mountains are like pythons, and the setting sun in the distance is like blood.

"After running for several days, I should have gotten over the matter of the Burial Yin Mountains."

Han Yan's tone relaxed. They had not stopped in the past few days and had been flying continuously to this area - Qianren Mountain.

This place is close to the border between the two continents, the earth veins are entangled and clashing, and strong winds are raging.

There are tens of thousands of caves among the thousands of mountains. Every night at midnight, a bone-chilling wind blows out from them. It is a dangerous place, but it can completely wash away their breath.

Ji An exhaled and said, "It's not like we're traveling, it's more like we're fleeing."

After so many days in Nanzhou, I haven't absorbed much earth energy. I did fight a battle and got covered in blood.

He paused and then said:

"Senior Sister, we were attacked not long after we set up camp that day, so it wasn't a coincidence.

So the question is, how did they track us down?"

This was a problem he had been thinking about for several days but couldn't figure out. He carefully checked all the items on his body, including everything in the storage bag, but did not find anything wrong.

Han Yan shook her head slightly and said:

"I've been thinking about this question too, but I can't think of an answer. All we can do now is try our best to avoid the Disha Sect monks."

It is easy to dodge a spear but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. Being attacked without even realizing it is the most terrifying thing.

Ji An sighed imperceptibly and said:
"That's all we can do. Let's find a place to go down and see what we can get."

They were both victims, but they had to hide from each other because of this. The jungle law of the survival of the fittest was clearly demonstrated.

The two men lowered their altitude and finally found a cave with a wide entrance. Several vines hung from the cave, half covering it.

Entering the cave, I saw that the stone walls were as smooth as a mirror, without a speck of dust.

The two men each took out a cushion and sat down, taking out and counting all the spoils they had obtained from the monks of the Disha Sect.

"Eight Void Cave Stones, but unfortunately we can only watch. These people must have ambushed many cultivators before attacking us."

Han Yan sighed. Without special means, it was impossible to open other people's Dongxu Stone.

At this time, there are only two options. The first is to search for some extremely corrosive natural treasures and corrode small holes in the space of the Dongxu Stone.

The second is to wait slowly. Without the nourishment of the owner's breath for a long time, the mark in the Dongxu Stone will fade away over time.

However, this method takes a very long time to take effect, possibly taking four to five hundred years at the fastest, or even thousands of years at the slowest.

Ji An put the spiritual weapon aside and said:
"These white bone spiritual weapons can be activated, but I dare not use them at all. I can only put them away and wait for the Central Continent cultivators to come again to sell them off."

This type of highly recognizable spiritual weapon must never be seen. There are sects in Zhongzhou that study the way of bones, which is a good way.

He pointed at the storage bag and said, "The only thing we can harvest now is what's inside."

The things placed in the storage bag were not expected to be precious.

There were four storage bags in total, none of which had any mana marks, and it was obvious that they had been searched.

When the things were cleared out, Han Yan laughed in surprise. It turned out that there were a large number of spiritual plants inside, most of which were the same as those they got from Rotten Peach Mountain.

Obviously, these spiritual plants are not valued by the monks of the Disha Sect.

Ji An was shocked because the stone turtle in his dantian expressed desire.

The last time he expressed this emotion was when he obtained a rare object that could release spiritual power in Mingfeng Mountain.

The two of them sorted out the things that were dumped out, which included spiritual plants, spiritual stones, elixirs, mineral materials and various sundries.

Ji An found the thing that made the stone turtle feel longing, a light gray stone in the shape of a gourd.

The upper part of the gourd has patterns of the sun, moon and stars, while the lower part has patterns of flowers, birds, insects and fish.

The background is a complex pattern with leaves, vines and rugged rocks, full of mystery.

He probed into his spiritual consciousness, but found it was dark and chaotic, empty. At this time, the stone turtle's desire was even more obvious.

Ji An calmly put the things into the pile of junk, clapped his hands and said:
"Finally, all my hard work wasn't in vain. Senior Sister, let's start distributing things."

Han Yan nodded and said softly:

"Junior brother, the reason we were able to win the battle is because of your strength.

To be honest, it is still unknown whether I can survive without you, so I cannot take these spoils.

I just have a small request. These spiritual plants from the secret realm have special meaning to alchemists, and I would like to take them away for research.

If I gain any results in the future, I will record the results of my research into a jade slip and send you a copy."

If the two people put in about the same amount of effort, splitting the effort equally would be the best option, but in the battle that night, she didn't play a big role and could only be described as a distraction.

All enemies and zombies were killed by the other side.

Ji An breathed a sigh of relief. This made things easier for the French. Dividing the spoils often led to conflicts. He pondered, "What are you talking about?"

"Senior Sister, since we are traveling together, we are one. The distribution you mentioned is not appropriate."

He pushed the secret realm spiritual plants to the other party, and pushed out more than 30 medium-grade spiritual stones, and finally took out a cave stone magic weapon at random:

"These things belong to Senior Sister, please don't refuse."

Han Yan declined several times and finally accepted it with a little shame. She felt that the role she played in the battle was not worth the price.

Ji An put the things into the storage bag and said:
"This kind of cave connects to the dark underworld, and a chilling wind blows in the middle of the night. It's not a place to stay for long.

Let's take this time to recover our mana and then find another hiding place.

Senior Sister, you should recover first."

There are many peaks and ridges in Qianren Mountain, and there are countless ravines. As long as you can endure the raging wind, it is also a good place to eat air.

Han Yan nodded slightly, without any nonsense, he grabbed the medium-grade spirit stone and began to practice to absorb spiritual energy.

Ji An sat sideways at the entrance of the cave, put his hands into his sleeves, groping for the strange stone in his hands, wondering in his heart what on earth had attracted the stone turtle to it.

Up to now, the stone turtle has not absorbed any inspiration.

Suddenly, his body stiffened and his eyes became empty.

Ji An found that his spiritual consciousness turned into a shadow and came to a small and dangerous space. The space was not big and was absolutely circular, about nine feet in radius. There was yellow gravel underneath, and it had a lifeless and barren feeling.

Outside the space was a gray mist, with flashes of bright white tree-like lightning from time to time, and black cracks appearing from time to time.

The rumbling thunder caused the shadow of his consciousness to shake continuously.

The strong wind blew, and it felt like being cut by a sharp blade.

"It's a bit like the inside of a cave stone, but it's definitely not a virtual space! So how did I get in?"

Ji An was a little confused, when he noticed a familiar shadow lying on his shoulder.

On the pale green turtle back, the neatly symmetrical Bagua stripes are dark black.

At this moment, the stone turtle seemed to come alive, and its dark eyes were full of flashing light.

"Brother, what's the matter with you bringing me here?"
