Chapter 377 The Road to Nascent Soul (3)(1/3)
Chapter 378 The Road to Nascent Soul (3)
The country of Sang is located on the border of the Central Territory of the Great Abyss. There is a Nascent Soul Sect force in the country, which is controlled by two early Yuanying sects.
Due to the fortune divination of "lucky stars shining high", Lu Changan slowed down his travels here.
About half a month.
As a traveling businessman, Lu Changan received his first mission.
There are dozens of spiritual veins distributed in the Ivy Mountains, dotted with large and small immortal cultivating families.
Among the rugged and winding mountain roads.
A middle-aged businessman with a sallow complexion, carrying a large suitcase and cage on his back, was travel-stained.
To the left and right of him were a green-armored guard and an inconspicuous yellow-haired native dog.
Woof!
The native dog at his feet suddenly barked softly and looked at the other side of the mountain.
A roaring sound broke through the air.
A five-foot-long magic weapon, the spirit boat, staggered past the sky.
"Father, we still have twenty miles to reach Heishafang City."
On the spirit boat, Tao Wenjun was half-kneeling, with a pale face and gradually losing his magic power, controlling the flying boat under his feet.
"Wenjun, don't force yourself. You are at the sixth level of Qi refining, and it is very difficult for you to control a high-grade flying boat. When you get to Fangshi, you only need to convey the news..."
Tao's father struggled to open his eyes, his hall was black and blue, and he was as angry as a gossamer as he explained his funeral affairs.
Tao Wenjun had tears in his eyes, his magic power and consciousness were approaching the limit. The speed of the flying boat was getting slower and slower, the shaking became more obvious, and it looked like it was about to fall at any time.
Tao Wenjun gritted his silver teeth tightly and was about to forcefully activate the blood essence again, when he glanced at the wandering businessman on the mountain road below from the corner of his eye.
As if she had grasped a life-saving straw, she felt so happy that she controlled the flying boat to land on the middle-aged traveling businessman.
"Senior, does this senior have any elixir for sale that can heal wounds and overcome disasters?"
Tao Wenjun landed as the flying boat landed. Her delicate body was unsteady and her hair was messy. She wanted to stand up and salute, but she fell to her knees weakly.
"Wenjun, don't be gullible..."
Tao's father felt uneasy when he saw the unfamiliar trio of traveling merchants. At this moment, the two of them had almost lost their means of protection. If they encountered bad people...
Tao Wenjun also realized this and felt a chill in his heart.
puff!
At this time, Tao's father vomited out a mouthful of black and bruised blood and passed out.
Lu Changan glanced at the beautiful, pale and helpless young woman, then stepped forward to explore Tao's father's injury.
"The internal organs are severely damaged, evil spirits are lingering, and the spirit and essence are depleted..."
Lu Changan pondered for a moment and took out a suet porcelain bottle from the cage (large storage bag) behind his back.
"This is a second-grade, top-grade rejuvenation pill."
He first fed Tao's father the healing elixir, then stretched out his green palm and patted him on his back.
Soon, a cold, dark mist floated over Father Tao's body.
After waiting for a while, Tao's father, who took the rejuvenation pill, looked much better, his heartbeat was steady, and he was out of danger.
"Thank you, senior, for helping me, I..."
Tao Wenjun's tense heart finally relaxed, and he bowed with gratitude on his face.
Through the treatment just now, she saw that this traveling merchant was an expert in the foundation-building stage and was proficient in medicine and pharmacology.
Otherwise, a second-level elixir alone would not be able to stabilize Father Tao's condition so quickly.
"It doesn't matter, Lu is a traveling businessman who just happened to meet me. The girl only needs to pay for the elixir and healing costs, and it's an equal transaction."
Lu Changan waved his hand and said humbly.
Tao Wenjun was startled and looked at the middle-aged traveling businessman with a sallow face and a shrewd smile. The halo of being an expert in his heart was shattered.
She pursed her lower lip and swallowed the words of gratitude that came from her mouth, such as "I have nothing to repay, I would like to be a cow or a horse in the next life, and weave grass rings...".
Then we discussed business.
Tao Wenjun took out the spiritual stones, valuable magic weapons, and elixirs from the storage bag, but he showed a bitter and embarrassed expression.
The exorcism treatment from the foundation-building doctor, coupled with the second-level high-grade elixir, could not compensate for the empty supplies in her and her father's storage bags.
In desperation, Tao Wenjun almost took off his robe and used it to offset some of the spiritual stones, but it was still not enough.
"Senior Lu, if you add Ye Feizhou, can it be enough to compensate?"
At the critical moment, Tao's father woke up and said in a bitter tone.
"Can."
Lu Changan nodded. Although it was only a first-level high-grade flying boat, its value was much higher than that of a magical weapon of the same level.
Tao Wenjun hesitated to speak. Ye Feizhou was not owned by the father and daughter, but was an asset of the family.
Because the family was in trouble, her father ran away with her and called for reinforcements. During the breakout process, she was attacked by gangsters again, and the situation was full of dangers.
After the transaction was completed, Lu Changan dusted himself off and prepared to say goodbye and leave.
"I sincerely ask you, senior, to help our Tao family. Once this is done, our foundation-building ancestor will be greatly grateful."
Father Tao, supported by his daughter, bowed and begged.
"I disappoint you two. As a traveling merchant, Lu will accept some transaction commissions, but he will not participate in the battle between the various forces."
Lu Changan declined apologetically.
"Senior Lu! This crisis for our clan is not a family dispute, but a demon lurking within the clan, breaking out in the family's forbidden area and wreaking havoc. It also coincides with a hostile evil monk taking advantage of the situation..."
Tao's father explained anxiously.
…
"Oh? A demon is lurking?"
Lu Changan thought it was an ordinary transaction entrustment, but he didn't expect that the matter was not simple.
Back then, when he used the teleportation channel to reach the forbidden area of the Central Abyss, Lu Changan encountered some demonized monsters.
Including the demonic Stone Heart Dragon that I once hunted, it was also considered one of them.
In the world of immortality in the Great Abyss, especially in the middle realm, demons are not unfamiliar things.
The root of all this comes from the ancient forbidden land of the Central Territory, and the endless demon abyss at its center once sealed many monster giants.
Every few years, the demonic tide will leak out of the endless demonic abyss, and some demons and monsters will escape from it and cause chaos in the abyss.
It is said that before Fairy Zixia and True Lord Yunlan became Taoist couples, their senior brother who had loved each other died in the chaos caused by demons in the Central Region.
"What kind of cultivation aura does the monster that appears from the Tao family have?"
Lu Changan sounded cautious and asked for the specific reason.
"The aura of the monster is stronger than that in the general foundation-building stage, and it should not be in the core-formation stage. However, there is more than one monster, otherwise our clan will have a large formation to protect the clan, and the two foundation-building ancestors will not bring about the disaster of annihilation."
Father Tao recalled thinking.
He kept an uncertain detail. When he left, the presence of monsters raging in the clan seemed to be increasing.
"Okay, you two stay here while Lu goes over to take a look."
Lu Changan made some calculations and concluded that the Tao family's monsters should be remnants of history.
It is difficult to completely eliminate the chaos caused by demons in the past, and some remnants remain, which are ghosts and monsters that have no climate.
This kind of situation happens occasionally in various places in the Central Region.
In addition, on the eve of the start of the demonic tide, the remnants of demons lurking everywhere will also be ready to move.
Lu Changan simply boarded the newly traded flying boat and headed to the Tao family land.
Among the clouds, Lu Changan tried to predict the next demonic turmoil. The secret was unclear, perhaps because the information medium was insufficient.
"Probably not."
Lu Changan thought to himself, "In the past, most of the demon disasters in the Central Territory occurred about a decade after the opening of the Ancient Nether Palace."
Many high-level monks speculate that the demon disaster may be related to the Ancient Nether Palace.
Because every time the entrance ticket to the Ancient Nether Palace is opened, magic crystals need to be paid.
A great Nascent Soul monk once warned the monks in the Central Region: exchanging magic crystals to enter the Ancient Nether Palace may bring uncontrollable and unknown risks to the Demonic Abyss in the forbidden area of the Central Region.
Faced with the opportunity and temptation of the Ancient Youdian Palace, the major powers in the Central Region did not take it to heart.
First of all, every time the demons in the Central Territory experience chaos, they are generally controllable, and some scarce materials will be brought in disasters. The strongest of the demons who escape are often no more than mid-fourth level, and they have a murderous temperament and a spiritual spirit.
A little less intelligent than monks of the same level.
