s magic, Lu Xia Tian felt immense joy."Go assist Qiao Lan and kill that yellow-haired old man. After dealing with the rest, come back to surround and kill this Niu Qin."Lu Xiaitian's eyes swept across...（This book has unexpectedly given birth to a helm master, thanks to the support of reader Zhuge Wuhou1, Feng Xiong Huaji, mercenary Zi Lang, Huai You Bu Yi zhao, Ju Hai Miao, Ben Xin Yizhi, Yu Ye You Mo and others. I won't list them all individually here>>> 。I wanted to release more content today, but I've been busy with work since the beginning of the year. After the new year, I used up all my saved drafts. 。Next month, on the 1st, there will be a small burst of 8,000 words. I look forward to recommendations and support from readers, especially recommendations. The more recommendations there are, the more likely this book is to get a recommendation spot, and the greater the motivation for hammering out updates. 。Fellow readers, what do you think

This gray stone is strange. It can even injure a cultivator's divine sense. This is not something that ordinary things can do. Just looking at the stone, Lu Xia Tian felt a sense of familiarity. He reached out and took the gray stone into his palm, feeling even more familiar with it. After a moment's thought, he suddenly remembered returning to his hometown after building the foundation. The alien cultivator who had used poison to plot against his father was later killed by him, and he obtained a gray stone that looked exactly like this one. However, that stone looked ordinary, while this one seemed strange and eerie. This small gray stone gave people the feeling of infinite space within, and once the divine sense entered it, it would be torn apart. 。"Fellow Daoist Lu is truly remarkable. Two such formidable Black Wind Demon Pythons, facing Fellow Daoist Lu, one died and the other fled. Even in the entire Xuan Ye City, I'm afraid there isn't a single Foundation Establishment cultivator who could achieve this." 。The emaciated monk looked at Lu Xia Tian with reverence, his voice filled with eagerness. 。Even the burly, bald man was astonished. Lu Xia Tian's performance had far exceeded their comprehension, perhaps even those Jindan cultivators before achieving the Jindan Dao could do as well as Lu Xia Tian. Such talents were rare indeed. 。"Lu Dao-you, are you alright" The thin elder, Xue Ling, was even more worried about Lu Xiaoteng's condition. She had personally seen Lu Xiaoteng being hit by the black wind twice. Even though she had already learned from the thin elder that Lu Xiaoteng was a powerful sixth-rank body cultivator, she still couldn't help but worry. 。"No problem, I'll take the snake gall and one person's share of python skin from the back, " 。The rest is up to you. Keep today's events a secret. If I hear even a whisper about this later, consider us enemies the next time we meet. 。“Yes, I swear, I will keep today's events a secret, or else heaven will strike me with five thunderbolts and I will be utterly severed from the path of Jindan!”Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's words, the lean elder was overjoyed while also hurriedly swearing an oath. Then, he made the bald strongman swear the same oath as well. 。At the same time, their eyes were fixed on the Ink Wind Demon Python. Such a large demon python was a treasure all over for him. However, this python was too powerful. An ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator couldn't handle it at all. Even Lu Xia Tian, with his formidable puppet and a Dan Yuan magic weapon, would be unable to escape the Black Wind Demon Python's devastating attacks that ignored spatial limitations. He wouldn't die, but he would definitely be crippled. 。If it weren't for someone like Lu Xiaotien, a freak of nature, even one or two elite cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage would likely be defeated. 。The black wind demon python before them was already hundreds of years old, and as a demon beast, it was extremely powerful. Its tendons could be used to refine top-tier magic weapon bowstrings or ropes, and its blood and meat were great tonics. 。The python's scales on its back could be used to make excellent defensive magical artifacts. This demonic python was so large that even after Lu Xia Tian chose the best parts, there was still enough left for him and the girl named Xue Ling to each have a full set of defensive magical artifacts. 。As for the venom sac, given the Black Wind Demon Python's potency and the exceptional nature of this particular one, it too is priceless. Before, their uncle-nephew duo had been like flies without a head in the Misty Forbidden Land, achieving little. Unexpectedly, following Xue Ling and Lu Xiaoteng brought them great fortune. They suffered no losses themselves yet reaped such significant rewards. 。If this got out, it would surely be the envy of many colleagues, a topic for boasting about. But the young man in front of him had issued a gag order. Thinking that if the other party heard the news, their next meeting would be as enemies, the wiry old man felt a chill run down his spine. He certainly didn't want to make such a formidable enemy. 。Within Xuan Ye City, it's still alright, after all, the other party wouldn't dare to make a move. If we leave the city, we would surely die without a doubt! Xue Ling was also overjoyed. Just like the thin old man, he had never had such a big harvest since his debut today. 。After all, with their strength, they couldn't possibly hunt such a powerful monster. Occasionally slaying a monster of the same rank was already considered good, and often they had to form teams and go to dangerous places, dividing the spoils with their teammates, leaving them with even less. 。But the Black Wind Demon Python corpse in front of them was far weaker than them. When the team was formed, they were still lacking. Naturally, Xue Ling was overjoyed. 。"Daoist Xue, please go ahead first." 。The gaunt old man was self-aware, Lu Xiaoteng still needed Xue Ling to get out of the Mist Forbidden Zone. Since he was dividing these materials, he naturally let Xue Ling choose first. 。Seeing several people bustling about, Lu Xia Tian walked straight towards the Black Wind Demon Python's lair and picked a largest and a slightly smaller Snake Gallbladder Grass, transplanting them into the barrier. 。The remaining two suitable ones were left to Xue Ling. 。After all, the other party is here to save people. If I fail to refine the Hundred Poisons Pill, I can still cultivate it inside the barrier. He had some admiration for Xue Ling's actions of risking her own safety to save her senior sister. 。To the best of your ability, don't hesitate to lend a helping hand. 。Around the entire lair, besides Snake Gall Grass, there were also some low-level spiritual creatures, but they weren't very valuable. Lu Xia Tian glanced at them and then gave up. 。...His gaze turned to the lair of the Black Wind Demon Python. There used to be two, but the smaller one had fled when things went south. He wasn't interested in chasing it, and he didn't know what was inside the lair either. Xue Ling, the thin old man, and the bald strongman were carefully dismantling the Black Wind Demon Python's body, trying not to damage its spiritual essence. It seemed they would be busy for a while... 。With nothing happening on either side, Lu Xia Tian's figure flashed as he entered the Black Wind Demon Python's lair. 。The nest was high up, and the inside was very dry. The rock walls were also very smooth, probably because the Black Wind Demon Python smoothed them every time it went in and out. Lu XiaTian walked along the deep, nearly ten-zhang long tunnel without feeling cramped at all. 。There was still a faint glimmer, going in for hundreds of meters, a surge of spiritual energy hit you. 。Within a space about several dozen zhang in diameter, it was estimated to be the lair of the demon python, used as a place to rest. 。There are still three smaller wooden pots containing eggs. Lu Xia Tian's eyes flashed with surprise. The level of the Black Wind Demon Python is not low, especially the offspring of a python with hundreds of years of fire. Its growth potential is higher. It is estimated that many people would be willing to raise such a pet and pass it down through their families. It would definitely be a great help. These three python eggs could sell for a high price. 。However, the three Black Wind Demon Python eggs were not the source of spiritual energy. The python's nest also had passages leading to other places. The cunning pythons had multiple lairs; they already possessed a certain level of intelligence. Although few threats existed that could endanger them, they always kept an escape route. This lair had both an entrance and an exit. Lu Xiaotian followed the direction of the spiritual energy flow and walked through it. Suddenly, he found another relatively spacious area across from the python eggs. There were several broken storage bags and a few intact ones scattered with a large number of spirit stones. There were over thirty pieces that were high-grade spirit stones, their spiritual energy was particularly dense and pure. As for other types, low-grade spirit stones totaled at least millions. 。There are over fifty storage bags in total, which means that at least that many human cultivators were killed by the Black Wind Demon Python. After all, most cultivators carry a storage bag each. 。

Adding more won't make much difference either.

Looking at the spirit stones scattered on the ground, and various spiritual objects placed in jade boxes, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh, it was true that one could become rich without any hardship. He himself had a small fortune, after returning to Lingxiao Palace, he received rewards from the sect, selling the Jin Condensing Pill brought another huge sum of spirit stones, and several treasures 。Although he received a large reward, the consumption of his own cultivation was also astronomical. Especially after refining the Chi Bamboo Pill, the consumption of elixir far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators several times over. 。If the number of alchemists hadn't also increased several times over, and their alchemy levels and success rates hadn't been steadily improving, I'm afraid things would have fallen apart long ago. 。He's not short of spirit stones for the time being, but no cultivator ever has too many spirit stones. 。And after that, if he still couldn't successfully cultivate the single-attribute Condensed Gold Pill, Lu Xia Tian could only follow the instructions in the Xuan Yuan Sutra and use the array method to refine five Condensed Gold Pills. Then, he would break through together. Condensed Gold Pills were not easy to refine, and refining five types required a large amount of Spirit Stones. At present, Lu Xia Tian didn't have a clear understanding of how many he needed. 。Seeing the fortune before his eyes, Lu Xiaoteng naturally wouldn't refuse. 。With three or two swipes, he first put the piled up spirit stones into the barrier. As for those scattered jade boxes, Lu Xia Tian quickly opened them to see, and there was also Qingxiang Dragon Lily grass inside. 。The medicinal herbs used to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill are not lacking in some hundreds, even thousands of years old. However, most of them have been within Lu Xia Tian's barrier. 。Apart from some spirit stones, it's not of much value. 。Lu Xia Tian's heart felt a slight disappointment, and he opened another jade box. A powerful and pure spiritual energy surged towards him. Inside was a jade green object surrounded by a faint green mist. Just inhaling it brought a sense of vibrant life. Through the light mist, one could see a fist-sized, jade green crystal fruit with seven small indentations on its surface. 。The Seven Apertures Exquisite Fruit, also known as the Gold Condensation Fruit! The wood spirit energy emanating from it is undeniable, this is a wood-type Gold Condensation Fruit! Lu Xiaoteng's hand holding the jade box was almost trembling. He had originally been annoyed for losing contact with Su Qing and getting lost in this Misty Forbidden Land, and after fighting the Black Wind Demon Python, he had been forced to expose a considerable part of his strength. 。Unexpectedly, things took a series of unexpected turns. Inside the Black Wind Demon Python's lair, I not only obtained a large quantity of spirit stones and spiritual creatures, but most importantly, I found this valuable wood-type Golden Condensation Fruit. 。At some point, Lu Xia Tian's scorching eyes regained clarity. The jade box in his hand flashed and disappeared, being sent into the barrier. Such a precious treasure could not be exposed outside in the slightest. 。After obtaining the Wood-type Congealed Golden Fruit, he could cultivate with peace of mind and during this time, continuously ripen the Congealed Golden Fruit. After reaching the ninth layer of Foundation Establishment, he would then refine the Congealed Golden Pill and attempt to break through to the Golden Core Stage!

A strange sound came from outside the nest. Sensing someone's arrival, Lu Xiaoxiao raised his hand and pointed, causing the remaining jade boxes to be stored within the barrier. 。"Lu Daoist friend!" A voice rang out from outside the lair, a wiry old man calling. He hadn't called twice when Lu Xiaoxiao had already come out of the lair. 。“This is the best piece of python skin, enough to craft a top-tier defensive leather armor.” 。The gaunt old man felt a bit strange that Lu Xiaoteng had stayed in the python's nest for so long. He must have found something, but since Lu Xiaoteng didn't say anything, he didn't dare to ask. He just respectfully presented the cut python skin. 。"You worked hard" 。“Lu Xiaitian politely accepted the offer, putting away the python skin. He already possessed fire dragon scales, a much higher grade armor. Naturally, he didn't need this lower quality python hide. However, it could be quite useful as a gift for someone important. He would find the right opportunity to send it out later.” 。As Xue Ling walked up from behind, she intuitively felt that Lu Xia Tian's tone seemed much gentler than before. She was a little puzzled, naturally unaware that it was because of the massive gains Lu Xiaotian had received inside the demon python's nest. 。"Would you like to rest and recover a bit" Xue Ling still looked at Lu Xiaodao with some concern. After all, they had just finished a fierce battle. Although their mana was replenished by the Huitian Dan, most people would need time to recover their mental energy after such an intense duel. 。"No need, let's just go to the next place." 。Lu Xia Tian shook his head. Resting was naturally better, but he still had to rush out and try to get another kind of Golden Condensation Fruit. Although his plan was to first use one kind of Golden Condensation Fruit to refine enough Golden Condensation Pills and attempt to break through to the Golden Core stage 。It is always best to have a backup plan, in case the first one fails, you can only follow the method of Xuan Yuan Daoist. 。After all, the requirements for cultivating a Jindan as described in also mentioned the issue of aptitude. Lu Xia Tian didn't have much confidence in his own aptitude either, so he could only make up for it through even greater effort. 。"Next, we'll collect nightingale fruit!" Xue Ling nodded and led the way ahead. 。The nightingale fruit is named after the nightingale and grows on the trees where nightingales reside. 。It is a very rare antidote, and few places can grow it. I didn't expect that there would be one in this forbidden mist land. 。In the foggy forbidden zone, the strange spatial restrictions were slowly dissipating. After two hours, they completely disappeared. Lu Xia Tian and his companions could once again fly with swords. Half a day later, they reached an unremarkable small hill. Surrounded by uneven bushes, it was only two zhang high, but its canopy was large, covering several acres of trees. There were six or seven spirit birds with mixed red and white feathers living there. The black wind demon python, however, seemed to be significantly weaker than these nightingales. 。The emaciated old man even patted his chest and volunteered to help. 。Obviously recognizing Lu Xia Tian's strength and realizing there was no danger, the thin old man and the burly bald man both let loose. 。They've already seen that Lu Xia Tian isn't a harsh person, the more effort you put in, the more spoils you'll get later. 。To this, Lu Xia Tian didn't refuse either. As long as they could leave this rather strange mist-shrouded forbidden zone sooner, allowing the three of them to gain more benefits, what was there not to like 。Although the nightingale was a bit inferior to the black wind demon python, it was still capable of establishing a foothold in this dangerous and misty forbidden zone. The seven nightingales were swift and agile, especially their sharp beaks. If a burly man just looked down on them lightly, his arm would be pecked through. If it weren't for the timely rescue of the thin old man, he might have died on the spot. 。Seeing this dangerous situation, the thin and elderly man's face changed drastically. He hurriedly pulled the bald strongman back a bit. 。Seven nightingales naturally once again focused their attention on Lu Xia Tian's. 。

Lu Xiaoteng thought that his knowledge of both left and right body cultivation had been exposed, so he no longer concealed himself, strode towards Ye Yingguo, and simultaneously slashed the Broken Earth Knife back and forth in the air. Seven Nightingales surrounded Lu Xiaoteng in a chaotic battle. Although Lu Xiaoteng's speed was faster than that of the Nightingales, they pecked at him several times and spat out sharp icicles and icy winds, but Lu Xiaoteng, with his strong defense, directly held firm. As the Broken Earth Knife slashed back and forth, a large number of feathers mixed with a string of blood beads fell to the ground. After that, the Nightingales flew away in fright, daring not to approach too closely.

Lu Xiaoteng's lips twitched slightly. As long as these nightingales didn't give up, he wouldn't bother killing them. He'd just take the nightingale fruit and leave. 。As Lu Xia Tian leaped over a tree, he directly picked several nightingale fruits and returned to the ground smoothly. 。(Sānqī Chinese)bit, he still had to disperse some of his attention and be careful himself. He might not be so easily discovered.>With such thoughts in mind, Lu Xiaotian quietly entered the domain of Xue Feng.At this...
