I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Hundreds of people rushed forward frantically, as if they were grabbing goods at a market.

Although Lu Xuan did not know anyone from the Mu family.

However, he knew that the black-clad steward of the Qinghe Sword Sect was a third-rank master dressed in black.

As long as you follow this approach, there shouldn't be any problems.

really.

Lu Xuan immediately spotted the figures rushing to the front.

One of them was a thin old man dressed in black, carrying a sword on his back. He seemed to be walking leisurely on the mountain path, but each step he took covered a distance of more than ten feet.

It's almost like shrinking the earth to an inch.

It is evident that this person's movement technique is extremely skillful, and their cultivation level is definitely not weak.

This person should be the black-clad steward of the Qinghe Sword Sect.

Beside the black-clad butler was a middle-aged man wearing a yellow robe.

This person exuded a powerful aura, and his body was accompanied by a scorching heat, like an invisible wave of energy surrounding him, making most people afraid to approach him.

True Qi is released externally.

And it's released in this way with each breath.

It is evident that his cultivation level is extremely high, and he has a very good grasp of his own techniques.

It was the Mu family's Fire Element Technique.

This person must be Mu Jianlong, the third elder of the Mu family!

These third-rank martial artists basically rushed to the first echelon, and led the other experts, their figures quickly disappearing into the jungle.

However, it can be seen that after only a dozen or so feet, the figures and positions of these people are completely different.

Clearly, there is more than one way to reach the Cloud Wave Pool, and choosing different paths is crucial.

Each family has its own map that it has explored.

But it must be said that the vegetation in the Lianyun Mountains is indeed very lush.

No wonder they tied the horses outside.

"Remember, the window of opportunity within this blessed land is only seven days. If you see the illusion starting to return, you must quickly retreat, otherwise it will be impossible to find a way out within the illusion."

Chu Yuanxiu gave a reminder to everyone.

Hearing Chu Yuanxiu's words, everyone perked up. As soon as they absorbed the spiritual energy from the first blessed land, a sense of solemnity enveloped them.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

The martial arts master from Black Tiger County was named Wang Liang.

Wang Liang blended into the crowd, and when he looked back, he was surprised to find that although Lu Xuan's movements seemed slow, he was always following at the very end of the group.

This surprised Wang Liang.

He also put some thought into it.

We have to deal with these people eventually, so why not do it sooner rather than later?

Chu Yuanxiu glanced back; Lu Xuan's movements were neither fast nor slow.

He always followed at the very back of the line.

This surprised Chu Yuanxiu somewhat.

"Keep up!"

Chu Yuanxiu called out.

He quickened his pace and disappeared into the jungle in an instant.

Large leaves and dense grass slapped against everyone one after another.

Those following behind had it easy, but the ones at the very front faced the most pressure, having to clear the way.

If they encounter any unknown danger, they will face it immediately.

Lu Xuan observed for a moment.

The path Chu Yuanxiu chose was different from the path chosen by the first echelon.

If we assume that Yunbo Pool is very large, then the two routes would roughly lead to the left and right sides of Yunbo Pool.

That makes sense.

If one shore has more abundant resources, but the other shore is also good, then naturally we should split up and try to take everything we can.

Suddenly.

Lu Xuan sensed something was wrong and suddenly pushed off with his foot.

His figure surpassed that of a Black Tiger County expert who had been in front of him.

The people from Black Tiger County didn't even have time to react.

The next moment, he fell to the ground.

He suddenly let out a scream.

"what!"

A vine seemed to come alive, wrapping around the foot of the Black Tiger County expert and snapping it in an instant.

So much so that the expert from Black Tiger County didn't even notice before he was thrown out.

This scream came after he fell and discovered that he had broken a leg.

However, his painful cry had barely escaped his lips.

The next moment, a dozen thin vines emerged from around him as he fell, wrapping themselves around him.

The next moment, the vines dispersed.

Only a skeleton and some tattered cloth remained in the same place.

"What?!"

"Oh My God!"

"What kind of monster is this?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Even Lu Xuan was surprised.

This thing is absolutely terrifying.

This person was at least at the first stage of the first rank and had already cultivated true qi, yet he was completely devoured in just a few breaths.

It was fortunate that he quickened his pace, otherwise he would have been the one dragged down.

The remaining vines were flying rapidly toward Lu Xuan and the others.

They were trying to capture their next prey.

At this moment, Lin Haichao also suddenly made a move.

He drew a sword and channeled his inner energy, severing the flying vines.

Where one of the vines broke, an energy crystal fell down.

This is a heteromorphic crystal!

It's not just strange beasts that have strange crystals; any strange thing that absorbs spiritual energy can potentially produce strange crystals.

Lin Haichao reached out and grabbed the strange crystal in his hand.

The remaining vines seemed to be frightened and quickly retreated.

"This thing is called the Vampire Vine!"

"This thing is extremely strong; once you're caught, it's very difficult to break free."

Chu Yuanxiu's voice came through.

"As previously agreed, any gains along the way belong to you personally, and my Chu family will not take a single penny."

Upon hearing Chu Yuanxiu's words, everyone looked at Lin Haichao with envy, and even a hint of jealousy.

Because of the strange crystal in Lin Haichao's hand just now.

If it were sold on the market, it could fetch at least a hundred taels of silver!

Did they really get their hands on those hundreds of taels of silver so easily?

He even regretted not making a move earlier.

The team, which originally consisted of twelve people, is now down to eleven.

One person died.

This also made everyone else more vigilant.

They've only been here a short time, and there have already been casualties, even before they've encountered any monsters.

"This isn't a blessed land; it's clearly a forbidden area!"

Lin Qiao's face turned slightly pale.

He was clearly terrified by this thing.

I've seen dead people before, but this kind of man-eating vine is truly the first time I've ever seen one.

She could even clearly see that something resembling sharp teeth was protruding from the vines.

They skinned the flesh and blood off the people of Black Tiger County.

"Watch out, girl."

Lu Xuan patted Lin Qiao on the shoulder.

Lin Qiao immediately sensed that a mysterious power had pulled her out of her shock and fear.

When Lin Qiao's gaze cleared.

At this moment, they all secretly gasped.

Just now, I almost fell into my inner demons because of fear.

If it weren't for Old Master Lu's palm strike, Lin Qiao would have been in real danger.

"Are you alright?"

Lin Haichao only then noticed Lin Qiao's strangeness, and at the same time, he glanced at Lu Xuan warily.

She was afraid that Lu Xuan would do something underhanded to her daughter.

Lin Haichao's attention had been focused on the surrounding jungle environment.

"I'm fine... Thank you, Mr. Lu..."

Lin Qiao bowed to Lu Xuan.

Lin Haichao glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't say anything more, and put away his longsword.

They returned to their original positions.

"In another ten miles, we will encounter a group of strange beasts. We will need to delay them for a quarter of an hour."

Chu Yuanxiu said.

He clearly had a map in his hand.

This is a map of the locations left from the explorations each year; they are roughly the same.

Lu Xuan and the others who were invited were also required to help the Chu family obtain rare and precious materials.

Instead of simply rushing on the road.

The most important thing is to collect the treasures from this blessed land.

As Lin Qiao said.

This place is forbidden territory for the weak.

For the strong, that is the true blessed land.

The ten-mile journey was quickly completed.

On the way here, we encountered several attacks from vampire vines, but these vampire vines were just a group that launched attacks on a conditioned reflex basis. They were like traps that had been laid in advance, and as long as we were careful, we could avoid them.

Several people in the group also obtained the Vampire Vine Crystal, and their faces were filled with high spirits.

After all, these exotic crystals that they obtained were worth real money.

As long as they can leave this place, they will directly receive several hundred taels of silver.

Lu Xuan neither made a move nor caused any trouble.

These exotic crystals were worthless to him.

What he wants is the Heavenly Mother Spirit Stone, and the follow-up parts of the Heaven-Crossing True Technique.

But after studying it just now, it seems that the map Yang Qinghou gave us goes far beyond the geographical location of Yunbo Pool, and goes even further ahead.

Since that's the case, let's not rush it.

Let's see if there's any chance to obtain the Heavenly Mother Spirit Stone.

Whoosh!

Chu Yuanxiu raised his hand.

The ten figures behind them also stopped.

He looked ahead with a surprised and suspicious gaze.

Directly ahead, there was a tall, strange beast resembling a deer, lying prostrate on the ground.

Its thick tail flicked gently, shooing away the surrounding mosquitoes.

"That's a second-grade exotic beast, a giant antlered deer."

"Everyone, follow me. We must keep this beast occupied."

"Chu Xiao, the things inside are all up to you."

Chu Yuanxiu said to Chu Xiao.

Although Chu Xiao is the captain, Chu Yuanxiu is still responsible for the operational planning.

If a decision arises that cannot be made, then we should still ask Chu Xiao for his opinion.

This is also to prevent Chu Yuanxiu from becoming blindly arrogant despite his great strength.

"Leave it to me."

Chu Xiao nodded.

Everyone took out their weapons.

In Lu Xuan's hand was a sturdy wooden staff, which Lin Qiao had just helped him cut and trim.

At this moment, Lu Xuan also gripped the long staff in his hand in a very serious manner.

"Let's do it!"

Chu Yuanxiu and another second-rank expert simultaneously unleashed their power.

Behind them, Lin Haichao, Wang Liang, and another expert from the Chu family at the first-rank high level also quickly followed.

The rest were Lu Xuan and the others.

Lu Xuan naturally walked at the very back.

Help keep an eye on the surroundings.

If there are too many people in the battle circle, it will inevitably affect the opponent's performance.

The giant elk sensed the approach of the crowd.

At that moment, he opened his eyes, stood up, and released an invisible aura, while letting out a loud roar.

A pair of fierce eyes immediately locked onto Chu Yuanxiu and the others.
