Chapter 985: The right time and place, the advantage is mine!
"It turns out to be the Xuanyin vine. Judging from its appearance, it must be ten thousand years old."
His tone fluctuated slightly. He didn't expect that the first place he found would give him the top-grade spiritual material he wanted.
Xuanyin vine is a wood-attributed spiritual material grown in cold and gloomy water areas, but its growth is quite demanding. It can only grow for a hundred years before reaching its limit and quickly withering within a few days.
Only by absorbing the cold and evil thunder can one use the evil thunder to break through the hundred-year limit and gain the opportunity for continuous growth.
Such a place with both Yin water and Yin thunder is extremely rare in the world. In addition, this place can block spiritual consciousness, making it difficult for ordinary people to discover it. This is why this Xuan Yin vine has been able to grow for ten thousand years.
Following his gaze, he saw a huge black lake with a radius of ten thousand feet below the cliff. The water in the lake was as black as ink, and waves of cold and gloomy air were surging.
In a place as cold as this, ordinary spiritual materials should not be able to survive at all, but in the middle of the lake, there is a Xuanyin vine floating on the water.
It is brown-red to black in color, about the thickness of a forearm, with a smooth and round surface. Its branches are twisted and intertwined with each other, covering an area of about 100 feet over the lake.
The cold and gloomy air that continuously spreads outward from the top of the cave is emitted from this Xuanyin vine, which shows how heavy its yin energy is.
Above the Xuanyin vine, at the top of the cave, there was a ball of Yinsha thunder hanging in the air motionless. Occasionally, a Yinsha thunder would strike down, illuminating the lake surface, but it would be swallowed up by a fist-sized red fruit in the middle of the Xuanyin vine.
The branch where the red fruit is located is the main body of the Xuanyin vine. Just take it away, and the rest of the vine will turn into evil energy and be absorbed by the main body.
Xiaobai stared at the fruit with eyes like lightning and said, "The ten thousand year old Xuanyin vine is a very rare and top-grade spiritual material. I believe that the monster wanted to use this Xuanyin vine to transcend the tribulation and become a god. However, today, Your Highness has been given this opportunity."
As it said this, it secretly transmitted a message: "You ungrateful thing, it turns out to be a cold water lizard that has reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul."
"Your Highness, that beast is hiding under the trunk of the Xuanyin vine, secretly gathering strength. It must be planning to launch a surprise attack while Your Highness is retrieving the treasure."
Jiang Han glanced at the main trunk, stepped forward calmly, and walked towards the lake on the void.
The monster might have been frightened before, which is why it is so cautious. But it doesn’t matter. Since it didn’t run away before, it doesn’t need to run away now.
"..."
In the dark and cold waters of Yinsha Lake, even the extremely cold-resistant deep-sea monsters dare not stay here for long, but at this moment, there is a three-meter-long black figure floating there motionless.
As it secretly gathered strength, the two horns on its head emitted a sharp cold light, but its power was hidden in the water without any trace, and it was ready to attack with all its strength at any time.
"Closer, closer..."
Seeing that hateful human being getting closer and closer without any defense, the dark face of the cold water lizard gradually showed a black light of excitement.
It is about to face the divine thunder tribulation, and now is the time for it to recuperate and wait for the heavenly tribulation. It should not have caused any trouble in the near future.
But there was no way. If it didn't take action, these humans would destroy its nest.
The problem is that these humans are too greedy. It didn't provoke them, but they shouted about harming the people and slaying demons to protect the way, and rushed in with magic weapons to destroy it.
What is it doing? It just wants to have a more suitable environment for itself when it is going through the tribulation, so it wants to take advantage of the evil here to change the external climate, make it snow, or freeze or something.
They described a small matter as a disaster to the people, making it seem like an unforgivable evil cultivator.
But it doesn't matter. Those unreasonable monks have been repelled by it. Next, it just needs to swallow this arrogant and ignorant young monk. It can transcend the tribulation early, and after becoming a spirit, it can escape into the underground spiritual river and escape for several months. No one will be able to find it again.
But then again, this young cultivator seemed very powerful, and the strength of the little bird spirit beast was comparable to its own, and its bloodline was even nobler than its own, which made it feel a lot of pressure.
But unfortunately, this is its home turf. With the support of the Xuanyin vine and the surrounding cold energy, it can burst out with all its strength, even briefly reaching a level comparable to that of a Spiritual Transformation Stage cultivator.
That was the power of a god. Even though it only lasted for a few breaths, it was enough to beat these two ungrateful guys into bloody cakes.
Even if this human has a trump card in hand and blocks its attack, he will definitely be seriously injured and unable to fight again.
Next, it only needs to slowly dissipate the evil spirits in this place. Within three days, it will be able to refine these two people into precious medicine for it to use to overcome the tribulation!
"Ten steps left, almost there, almost there..."
The cold water lizard became more and more excited, but its eyes became calmer.
Over thousands of years, it has done this kind of sneak attack too many times and is very skilled at it, almost becoming an instinct.
It knows how to launch sneak attacks more efficiently and less likely to be detected.
The only thing that worried it was the magical flying sword of the human cultivator.
It was certain that this boy must be a core disciple of a large family. Even it was envious of his magical treasures and flying swords.
Over the past thousands of years, it has killed many cultivators who accidentally entered this place and obtained many magic weapons, but most of them are earth-level or even mysterious-level magic weapons, and there is not a single heaven-level magic weapon.
But this kid, at once, brought out more than twenty heaven-grade magic flying swords. Fortunately, his cultivation was low, only at the late Nascent Soul stage. If he was a sword cultivator at the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, he would never fight with him and would have escaped with the Xuanyin vine long ago.
"These humans are really petty. It's just that the cold air froze a few mortals to death, but they actually sent such a core disciple to cause trouble for me. It's simply unreasonable."
The cold water lizard kept cursing those hateful humans in its heart, but its expression became increasingly calm. It secretly mobilized the evil energy into its body. The two horns on its head glowed with a dark luster, and its body was tense, and it had entered the hunting state.
So what if he is a core disciple? This kid looks like a useless cultivator who has been spoiled by his elders since childhood and has lived a life of luxury.
Let alone a life-and-death battle, he's probably only fought with some younger members of the sect.
He has almost no experience in fighting, yet he dares to cause trouble for it. Is he trying to make up for the huge gap in strength between the two sides by relying on those heavenly magic weapons?
It's ridiculous. It would be fine if these magic weapons could bully those useless people who know nothing, but there is a huge gap of one small realm between them, which can't be made up by those magic weapons no matter what.
What's more, it is a noble cold water lizard with an extremely weak trace of dragon blood in its body. Its physical body is much stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. In addition, it has thousands of years of combat experience. This cultivator came alone and was about to fall into its trap.
With such a huge advantage, it really couldn't imagine how it could lose!
