Chapter 77 Looking for clues
Wei Yunxi recalled the map of the outskirts of Baohua Mountains that he had purchased, and then roughly circled a range.

"Brother Long, there are two places with large areas of Fire Dragon Grass in the direction you mentioned."

"Yes, that's why I chose to follow them. One of these two places is guarded by a swarm of tiger bees, and the other is already on the edge of the outer perimeter, close to the inner perimeter. The chance of encountering a second-level monster is very high, and it's also very dangerous. I wonder where they went to pick the Fire Dragon Grass."

Yun Xi frowned and thought for a moment before saying:

"Based on my understanding of Senior Sister Qintong Shuang, they will probably go to the edge of the inner circle. Because it is dangerous here, there shouldn't be many Qi-refining cultivators going deep into the area to pick the grass, so there will be more Fire Dragon Grass.

The first-level Fire Dragon Grass is not very effective against the second-level monsters, so the Fire Dragon Grass here should be of a higher age. For completing the sect mission, the higher-aged grass can be exchanged for more sect contribution points, which is definitely her first choice."

After hearing this, Long Daoyu turned to look at Yun Xi and said:
"It seems that Junior Sister Wei has made thorough preparations to complete this mission."

Yun Xi nodded and said:
"I originally took the mission to find my missing friend. Later, I learned that I might be traveling with Master Sheng, so I made some extra preparations. I couldn't embarrass myself in front of Master Sheng!"

"You're right, let's speed up a bit."

Long Daoyu felt that he was being outdone. When it came to admiration for Uncle Sheng, he was second to none. He couldn't afford to lose to this little junior sister, so he quickened his pace.

After entering the entrance of Baohua Mountain, he put a lightening talisman on himself and began to speed up his pace. Yun Xi took advantage of the "Thousand Shadows Supporting the Wind" technique and used the surrounding wind spiritual power to support himself on the road.

The two of them had a direction and naturally moved faster. An hour later, Long Daoyu stopped first, and Yun Xi also stopped and asked:
"Brother Long, why did you stop?"

Long Daoyu waved his hand and said:

"Master and the others are not far ahead. Let's not follow too closely. Let's rest for a while. We have already traveled for an hour."

"it is good!"

After Yun Xi agreed, he walked around with the magic sword in hand. After making sure there was no danger, he released the defensive formation, then pretended to take a pill and started meditating.

Long Daoyu stole a glance at Yun Xi, then secretly pinched his aching calf. Even though he used the talisman to assist, it was still too tiring for his legs. But why did he feel that Junior Sister Wei was more relaxed than him?

Although Yun Xi closed her eyes in meditation, her consciousness was always on alert, so she naturally noticed Long Daoyu's little movements, but she didn't expose him. After all, the two of them were just a temporary team.

One is to chase stars, the other is to avoid disaster and find friends. For now, their goals are the same, so let's just make do with it for now.

At this time, Qin Tongshuang, who was being thought about by Yun Xi, was in a dark cave, holding an egg as big as a washbasin and slowly transferring spiritual power into it. Mu Ningzhu beside her was doing the same thing.

If Wei Yunqing were here, she would recognize that Mu Ningzhu was the person she had provoked in the outer three peaks, and was ruthlessly slapped in the face by him. At this time, Mu Ningzhu was in the initial stage of foundation building. Wei Yunqing would probably be defeated if she knew it.

Zhen Tongshuang has already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, and has advanced two levels in more than three years. It is obvious that she has put in a lot of effort. However, this time when she and her senior sister teamed up for training, they were trapped here.

Qin Tongshuang could no longer maintain the coldness on her face. She asked in a low voice while injecting spiritual energy:

"Senior Sister, the deadline is approaching, what should we do?"

Mu Ningzhu sighed softly and said:

"I can get out on my own, but I can't take all of you out with me. What if I anger that three-headed snake and it kills you all?" "So are we just going to sit there and wait? The deadline given by that second-level three-headed snake is almost up. If we can't hatch the eggs, we'll be dead."

Mu Ningzhu understood her junior sister's anxiety and could only comfort her:

"Wait a little longer. The sect must have received the distress talisman I sent. Fellow disciples have been captured one after another. The more fellow disciples go missing, the sect will definitely notice something is wrong and will arrange for more powerful people to search for us. We just need to be patient for a while."

Zhentong Shuang sighed and could only continue to slowly input spiritual energy into the eggs. They had been busy for more than half a month, but not even a single scale had hatched. She suspected that these snake eggs were dead eggs, but she didn't dare tell this to the second-level three-headed snake, for she was afraid that she would be swallowed.

The faces of the fellow disciples holding the snake eggs around them all looked dejected. If they continued like this, they would surely die of exhaustion of spiritual energy. Now they could only hope that the sect would send someone to rescue them soon.

On the other side, Sheng Yuhong was looking for clues at the fire dragon grass, but the place was badly damaged and there were almost no useful clues. In the end, he took out the retrospective mirror borrowed from the sect and used his own mana to replay the scene when the accident happened.

However, due to Sheng Yuhong's limited strength, some scenes only flashed by. He only saw clearly that a second-level three-headed snake had kidnapped fellow disciples of Haoran Sect. Then his dantian felt a pain and he had to stop inputting spiritual power.

Sheng Yuhong raised his hand to take back the retrospective mirror that was floating above the fire dragon grass. With a pale face, he put the mirror back into the storage bag, and immediately swallowed the soul-replenishing pill to begin to recover.

The five junior sisters immediately sat in a circle to protect Sheng Yuhong. They also saw the scene that appeared in the retrospective mirror just now. Fortunately, they knew what had captured their fellow disciple. After their senior brother recovered, they would follow the trail of the three-headed snake to find him.

After Sheng Yuhong recovered, they did not delay and began to look for the traces of the three-headed snake, preparing to attack the opponent's lair directly.

Shortly after Sheng Yuhong and his group left, Long Daoyu and Wei Yunxi also arrived at the place where the fire dragon grass was.

Yun Xi felt a little sad when she saw the half-destroyed Fire Dragon Grass. This was the main ingredient for refining the Fire Dragon Pill. As the name suggested, the Fire Dragon Pill was a pill that replenished fire spiritual power and was very friendly to cultivators with fire spiritual roots.

Even without fire spiritual roots, cultivators can temper their bodies after taking this elixir. It is an indispensable warming elixir when entering extremely cold places for training.

"Junior Sister Wei, since we are here, we should not come empty-handed. We should pick at least some so that we can report back."

Long Daoyu also felt it was a pity, but this time his thoughts were in sync with Wei Yunxi's.

"Brother Long is right. These Fire Dragon Grasses are of a good age. Even if Uncle Sheng and the others don't like them, we don't mind them."

"Junior Sister Wei is right."

Then one of them was responsible for guarding while the other started picking fire dragon grass.

Fortunately, Yun Xi was well prepared and had no shortage of jade boxes for storing spiritual herbs. She specifically picked the old Fire Dragon Grass, but she also did not forget Long Daoyu, and they each got almost half.

After putting the jade box into the storage bag, something unexpected happened. A snake tail broke out of the ground, wrapped Wei Yunxi around it and drilled into the ground.

"Brother, help!"

Yun Xi shouted.

Long Daoyu was also startled and threw out an attack talisman casually, but unfortunately it only blew away the remaining fire dragon grass and did not hurt the snake's tail at all.

Long Daoyu's face changed, and he raised his hand and sent a distress signal into the air.
