Chapter 269: Nangong Wan’s strange fate, who dug up the spiritual herbs?
The second level of the Blood Forbidden Land, deep in the circular mountain range.
Qin Shuang stood in a fog, his consciousness spreading out like a tide, covering an area of 100 meters. In his mind, the luck panel suddenly flashed, showing a line of information:
[The spiritual energy of the Tianqin world has revived again, the Jiuzhou barrier has opened, and the concentration of spiritual energy in the world has increased a hundredfold. ]
"In the Tianqin world, spiritual energy is reviving?"
Qin Shuang raised his eyebrows, shocked.
Although he was in the bloody forbidden land, the changes in the Tianqin world surprised him.
However, he had no time to think about it at the moment. The circular mountain range in front of him was the challenge he needed to face.
The ring-shaped mountain range is blocked by thick fog all year round, and you can't see your hand in front of you.
There are natural sacred places such as caves, dense valleys, and cliffs in the mountains, as well as artificial buildings such as stone houses and stone palaces. Various magical medicines from heaven and earth grow in these places.
However, the fog is too large and too thick, and there are thick poisonous ridges. After ordinary cultivators enter it, they will be completely lost after taking a few steps. They can only grope forward one step deep and one step shallow.
Qin Shuang is different.
His spiritual sense was strong enough to penetrate the fog and clearly perceive everything around him.
Moreover, he is not afraid of the poisonous rocks here.
He walked through the mountains as if he was strolling in a garden, quickly collecting rare spiritual herbs into the Temple of the God of War.
"Dragon Grass, Purple Salvia miltiorrhiza, Nine-leaf Ganoderma Lucidum... These spiritual herbs are enough to refine several furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pills." Qin Shuang thought to himself.
At this moment, a violent fluctuation of spiritual power came from afar.
Qin Shuang swept his spiritual sense and found that the fluctuation came from a cave a hundred feet away. Qin Shuang discovered with his spiritual sense that there were more than ten disciples in the cave, all of them were from the Yanyue Sect.
The leading girl, Nangong Wan, was fighting fiercely with a black dragon.
now.
The originally jet-black body of the black dragon had turned snow-white and scaleless. Its length had increased from thirty or four feet to fifty or six feet, and it had become more than a circle thicker. An inch-long jet-black horn had grown on its triangular snake head, and a pair of extremely sharp white claws had grown on its abdomen.
Obviously, it has advanced from a first-level monster to a second-level monster, and its strength has skyrocketed.
Nangong Wan held the Suzaku Ring, and spiritual power surged around her, but she was unable to trap the black dragon. After the black dragon shed its skin and escaped, it was even stronger than before. Although Nangong Wan tried her best, she still couldn't do anything to the black dragon.
"Everyone step back, I'll stop it!" Nangong Wan shouted coldly, with unquestionable majesty in her tone.
Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Yanyue Sect all left the stone hall.
Qin Shuang hid in a crack in the stone cave, with an indifferent expression and no intention of leaving.
Inside the stone hall, Nangong Wan and Mo Jiao were fighting fiercely.
at this time.
Junior Brother Li, the nephew of an elder of the Yanyue Sect and known as one of the two beauties of Yanyue, took out the Small Five Elements Forbidden Talisman and sealed the exit of the cave, so Nangong Wan could not get out.
The other Yanyue Sect disciples were stunned and didn't know what to do.
Nangong Wan threw out rare talismans such as the Earth Escape Talisman, Water Prison Talisman, and Fire Bird Talisman one after another, but it was still difficult to suppress the Black Dragon.
The black dragon roared angrily, and rushed towards Nangong Wan with its huge body, and its sharp claws went straight for her throat.
At this critical moment, Qin Shuang flashed and appeared in front of Nangong Wan in an instant.
He raised his hand and punched directly at the black dragon's head.
"boom!"
With a muffled sound, the black dragon was knocked back by Qin Shuang's punch, the scales on its head shattered, and blood flowed. The black dragon roared and hissed, and its triangular eyes were full of anger and fear.
"His body is so strong?"
When Nangong Wan saw this, a hint of shock flashed in her eyes.
She didn't expect that Qin Shuang's body was so strong that it could even defeat a second-order Mo Jiao. The strength of this body was completely comparable to that of a golden elixir!
She really couldn't understand how such a powerful disciple could appear in Huangfeng Valley.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist." Nangong Wan whispered, with a hint of gratitude in her tone.
Qin Shuang smiled faintly and said, "It's okay."
Nangong Wan took the opportunity to offer a jade talisman and took the soul of the black dragon into it. She turned to Qin Shuang and said, "The body of the black dragon belongs to you."
Qin Shuang nodded, with anticipation in his eyes, then walked to the body of the Mo Jiao, took out the Xuanyuan Sword, cut it open, and took out a round Jiao pill.
The Jiaodan is red all over, the size of a fist, and exudes a rich spiritual energy.
Nangong Wan saw this, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, and said: "Daoyou, can you let me take a look?"
Qin Shuang handed the Jiao Dan to her. As Nangong Wan took it, the Jiao Dan exploded for no reason, and a large cloud of pink smoke instantly enveloped the two of them.
Qin Shuang could have avoided it, but he didn't. In the pink smoke, Nangong Wan's face gradually turned red, and a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes. She looked at Qin Shuang and whispered: "This smoke... is poisonous..."
Qin Shuang looked calm, but a hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes. He reached out to support Nangong Wan and asked, "Are you okay?"
Bloody forbidden land, deep in the stone palace.
The pink smoke gradually dissipated, Qin Shuang slowly opened his eyes, and found himself lying on a stone platform about ten feet square, with Nangong Wan in his arms.
Her beautiful eyes were closed, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her fair skin was faintly flushed, and her curvy body was pressed against him, like a beautiful painting.
The dream just now emerged in Qin Shuang's mind. In the dream, he and Nangong Wan were entangled in a passionate love affair, and her moans seemed to still echo in his ears.
He looked down at the woman in his arms, and an impulse surged in his heart.
"Um……"
Nangong Wan snorted and slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes met Qin Shuang's, and a trace of panic and complexity flashed in her eyes.
As Nangong Wan twisted her body, she touched Qin Shuang's clone. He hugged Nangong Wan tightly and pressed her down deeply.
Nangong Wan slowly closed her eyes.
Three hours later.
Nangong Wan slowly opened her eyes.
"You're awake." Qin Shuang said in a low voice, with a hint of tenderness in his tone.
"You should know my identity. Just think of this as a dream, a mistake. If you tell anyone, I will kill you."
Nangong Wan quickly broke free from Qin Shuang's arms, straightened her clothes, and said with an icy expression.
Qin Shuang smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Miss Nangong, I am not a talkative person."
Nangong Wan snorted coldly and turned to leave, but suddenly her eyes widened and she turned to look at Qin Shuang and asked, "In my Dantian, what...what's going on?"
At this moment, there was a hint of disbelief in Nangong Wan's tone.
Nangong Wan discovered that there was a terrifying power surging in her dantian. This power was actually changing her physique, meridians and bones.
She clearly felt that her physical condition and functions had recovered to the level when she was in her twenties!
Qin Shuang stood behind her and said calmly: "The changes in your body are because my essence has the properties of dragon essence."
"Long Yuan?" Nangong Wan turned around, a hint of doubt flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Why does it feel like it's getting more and more mysterious the more you talk about it?
His essence has the attributes of a dragon?
How can this be?
Qin Shuang smiled slightly and said, "I once slayed a dragon and obtained its essence. This dragon essence can not only improve your cultivation, allow you to break through the realm, improve your physique, but also prolong your life. With the nourishment of the dragon essence, your life span will continue to increase, and eventually you can even reach the realm of immortality." "This"
Nangong Wan was shocked when she heard this.
Although she is the pride of the Yanyue Sect, immortality is still an unattainable dream for her.
But at this moment, Qin Shuang's words gave her hope.
The reason why she believed it was because she could actually feel this powerful force in her body.
This power is improving her physique and her qualifications, and she feels that her lifespan has been greatly increased.
"You...why are you giving me these?" Nangong Wan asked in a low voice, with a complicated look in her eyes.
Qin Shuang said calmly: "Although what happened today was an accident, since you and I have had physical contact, you are my woman! I will not treat you unfairly."
Nangong Wan fell silent after hearing this.
Qin Shuang's eyes flashed, and he pretended to be ignorant and asked: "Do you know what that pink smoke is?"
Nangong Wan pondered for a moment and said, "That is the black dragon's sac. I didn't expect that this beast is actually a rare male dragon, and I was careless and forgot about it. The sac is full of aphrodisiac mist, and it will erupt immediately upon contact with any female."
Nangong Wan whispered. "I was careless."
"I'm leaving!"
After Nangong Wan finished speaking, her figure flashed and turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the depths of the stone hall.
“Nangong Wan is really good!”
Qin Shuang looked at her back, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
Nangong Wan asked for it again and again, regardless, Qin Shuang had the dragon essence in his body, so naturally he gave her several streams of essence.
He knew that although what happened today was an accident, it probably left an indelible mark in Nangong Wan's heart.
At the entrance to the Bloody Forbidden Land, the elders of the seven major sects gathered together and stared at the entrance. The atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
As time goes by.
It was time for the forbidden land disciples to return. Lights flickered at the entrance, and from time to time a disciple emerged from it.
only.
Every disciple that came out was injured, weak, had an ugly look on his face, and was filled with deep guilt.
After half a day, only 30 disciples came out of the forbidden area.
"No way? So many people were killed this time?"
"Only 4 people came out from Huadaowu this time? 21 people were killed? This..."
"Only 7 people came out of my Spirit Beast Mountain? Oh my God!"
"."
Li Huayuan, Fu Yunzi, Old Monster Qiong, Elder Nishang and others stood at the entrance of the forbidden area, their eyes sweeping over the thirty or so remaining disciples below, their eyes full of heartache and confusion.
"This trip to the forbidden area has resulted in the loss of so many disciples..." Li Huayuan sighed softly, his tone sounding a bit heavy.
Fu Yunzi stroked his beard and shook his head, saying: "The forbidden area is dangerous, it has always been like this. But the number of disciples killed this time is too much, alas."
At the entrance to the bloody forbidden land, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
Old Monster Qiong stood on a hill, his eyes sternly sweeping over the eleven disciples of the Yanyue Sect, and said in a deep voice: "Take out your spiritual herbs. I want to see how much you have gained from this trip to the forbidden land!"
The disciples of Yanyue Sect looked at each other, each with a troubled look on their face. The leading disciple gritted his teeth, took out eight spiritual herbs from his storage bag, and whispered, "Grandmaster, these are all I found."
Qiong Laoguai frowned and looked at the other disciples. Those disciples took out spiritual herbs one after another, the most of which was only eight, and the least was even only two.
"This...how is this possible? How could there be only such a small amount?" Old Monster Qiong's face was gloomy, his eyes full of disbelief.
Upon seeing this, Fu Yunzi sneered and said, "Fellow Daoist Qiong, it seems that the disciples of your Yanyue Sect did not gain much this time."
Old Monster Qiong snorted coldly and ignored Fu Yunzi. Instead, he turned to look at Li Huayuan and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, where are the disciples of your Yellow Maple Valley? They are not in such a bad condition, are they?"
Li Huayuan looked calm and said to Qin Shuang and the others, "Take out your spiritual herbs."
Qin Shuang took a step forward, took out seven spiritual herbs from the storage bag, and handed them to Li Huayuan respectfully: "These are the only ones I found."
Han Li followed closely behind and took out eight spiritual herbs: "These are the only ones that I have found."
Chen Qiaoqian also took out seven spiritual herbs and whispered, "The same goes for my disciples."
Li Huayuan took the spiritual herb and frowned slightly, but did not say much.
He turned around and looked at the disciples from other sects, and found that the disciples from Qingxu Sect, Huadaowu, Lingshou Mountain, Tianque Fort and other sects had all gained very little, and some even gained nothing.
"This...what on earth is going on?" Fu Yunzi whispered to himself, his eyes full of confusion.
After asking many disciples, they learned that when they entered the forbidden area, the spiritual herbs inside had already been pulled away.
Old Monster Qiong snorted coldly and said, "Impossible! The entrance to the forbidden area is guarded by our seven major sects. No one can enter in advance."
"It's fine that we lost some disciples, but why did we get almost no spiritual herbs?"
Old Monster Qiong frowned deeply.
Without spiritual herbs, the spiritual herbs of Huangfeng Valley and Qingxu Sect combined are more than his, so he lost the bet.
Three talismans!
Elder Nishang frowned and said, "This matter is strange, we must investigate it thoroughly!!"
Li Huayuan nodded, and then said to the disciples below: "Dear disciples, take out your storage bags and accept inspection."
Upon hearing this, all the disciples took out their storage bags and handed them to the elders of their respective sects for inspection. Qin Shuang stood in the team of the Yellow Maple Valley with a calm expression, holding an ordinary storage bag in his hand, with only a few spiritual herbs in it.
Li Huayuan took Qin Shuang's storage bag and scanned it with his spiritual sense. He found that there were only a few ordinary spiritual herbs in it. He frowned and said, "Qin Shuang, did you find anything unusual in the forbidden area?"
Qin Shuang shook his head and said, "After entering the forbidden area, I found that the spiritual herbs were scarce. It seemed that they had been dug up in advance."
Upon hearing this, Li Huayuan frowned even deeper.
He turned and looked at the elders from other sects and found that most of their disciples had only brought out a small amount of spiritual herbs, and some even got nothing.
"This...what on earth is going on?" Fu Yunzi whispered to himself, his eyes full of confusion.
Old Monster Qiong snorted coldly and said, "Could it be that someone really entered the forbidden area in advance and swept away all the spiritual herbs?"
Just when everyone was confused, Xiang Zhili stood aside and looked at Qin Shuang with a deep gaze.
Although he didn't say anything, he already knew in his heart that the spiritual herbs in the forbidden area might have been taken by Qin Shuang.
However, he did not expose it, but just stood aside quietly, like an ordinary disciple.
Li Huayuan and others discussed for a while and finally decided to suppress the matter temporarily and investigate it later.
"My fellow disciples, although this trip to the forbidden land was not smooth, you are lucky to have come out alive. Rest well after you return, there will be more opportunities waiting for you in the future."
Li Huayuan said loudly, with a soothing tone in his voice.
All the disciples responded in unison and then dispersed.
Qin Shuang stood in the crowd, his eyes swept across Xiang Zhili in the distance, thinking to himself: "This man is unfathomable, I'm afraid he has already seen through my tricks. However, he doesn't seem to have any ill intentions."
He turned and left, with a clearer plan for the future in his mind. (End of this chapter)
