Ye Changsheng and his team patrolled according to the prescribed route. In the following time, as long as they did not encounter any problems on this route, they could complete the mission safely.
For more than ten days, as they went deep into the swamp, although they encountered a lot of troubles along the way, these troubles were nothing and were easily solved by everyone.
However, no trace of the alien race was ever encountered, and there was no movement on the alien spirit disk.
This couldn't help but make several people in Ye Changsheng's team feel a little relieved, and their always solemn expressions relaxed a little.
It seems that these people, whether they have been to Fuli Swamp or not, are actually somewhat afraid of the reputation of this swamp.
On the 20th day, when Ye Changsheng and others walked into a forest, the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly, and a whooshing cold wind blew over, making everyone feel a little more vigilant.
After walking forward for more than ten miles, a swamp suddenly appeared in front of them. In the center of the swamp was a small island with four or five small white jade-like trees growing on it.
Those small trees seemed to be made of jade carvings, and were only about one foot tall. There were three or two bright red fruits hanging on the branches of each small tree.
"Bing Luo Guo?!"
After seeing these fruits, the white-haired old man in Ye Changsheng's team suddenly exclaimed, his face full of surprise.
"What? Is it the Binluo Fruit?" After hearing the old man's exclamation, the remaining people in Ye Changsheng's team showed expressions of surprise on their faces.
Ye Changsheng also had a look on his face, and looked at the small trees carefully.
This Binluo Fruit, he had seen records related to it when he was reading various classics before.
In the human world, this is a kind of wonder medicine that has long been extinct. Once it is released, it will attract many Nascent Soul monks to fight for it.
Just because, after picking this Ice Luo Fruit, you can use it to refine an Ice Luo Pill.
Ice Rod Pill has the miraculous effect of adding two Jiazi skills to a Yuanying monk.
You can imagine how crazy the Yuanying monks would be if they saw this kind of spiritual fruit. After all, the skills of the two Jiazis can almost allow them to practice from the early stage of Yuanying to the middle stage of Yuanying.
As for monks in the middle and late stages of Nascent Soul, their skills can also increase greatly, taking a big step closer to the bottleneck.
This kind of elixir, which cannot be found in the human world, appears casually in the spiritual world. It is indeed much more convenient for the Nascent Soul monks in this world to practice.
"Captain, why don't we go over and take a look?" The white-haired old man turned his head eagerly and looked at Ye Changsheng and asked.
The blue light flashed in Ye Changsheng's eyes. After looking around for a while, he nodded and said: "That's fine, just be careful!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired old man immediately flew out impatiently, and the other people were not willing to lag behind and rushed towards the water.
They have already seen that after entering this area, there is no abnormality on the alien spirit disk, which means that there should be no aliens in this area.
In this way, the danger in this area will naturally be greatly reduced.
There may be some exotic beasts native to Fuli Swamp in the swamp, but such creatures are nothing in front of a team of Qingming Guards.
At most it will cause a little trouble.
The white-haired old man was the fastest and rushed to the sky above the water swamp. As soon as he appeared here, there was movement in the water swamp below.
After a ripple in the water, two small black snakes emerged from the water and shot toward the white-haired old man.
The white-haired old man seemed to have expected it. He smiled, and a red gourd appeared in his hand. He opened the gourd's mouth, and a red light shot out from inside, covering the two little snakes.
The two little snakes were immediately sucked away by the gourd. The white-haired old man plugged the mouth of the gourd, shook it slightly, opened it again, and poured out a pool of blood.
"Brother He's soul-killing gourd is really powerful!" The black-faced man in the team also flew in front of the white-haired old man and said with a hint of envy in his eyes.
"Hey, my soul-killing gourd is indeed somewhat powerful, but isn't Brother Feng's Black Soul Banner also a top-notch magic weapon? I heard that Brother Feng once used this magic weapon to fight two wild beasts that were comparable to Nascent Soul monks.
The beast never falls behind!" the white-haired old man said with a smile.
The black-faced man shook his head after hearing this: "Although the Black Soul Banner is somewhat powerful, its growth rate is far inferior to that of Brother He's Soul-killing Gourd. This magic weapon of yours can grow to a level second only to the Spiritual Treasure."
Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the white-haired old man couldn't help but show a look of regret on his face, and sighed repeatedly: "Unfortunately, when I found this gourd, its vines had been completely eaten by a group of poisonous insects.
Even the gourd itself was damaged!
"Later, I begged an uncle in the sect to fill the gap in the gourd with a kind of red mud wood, and then refined it into the magic weapon today!" The old man said, pointing to a certain place on the gourd.
Sighing again and again.
I saw that the color of the gourd was slightly darker than elsewhere in the area he was pointing to. It seemed that this was the gap he was talking about.
The black-faced man seemed to have some understanding of this past event, with a look of regret in his eyes as he said:
"It's a pity. If we let this gourd grow for thousands of years, there is hope that it can be refined into a spiritual treasure!"
"If it really wants to become a material that can be used to refine spiritual treasures, I will never get it again, so it is a good thing for me that it has flaws!" The old man shook his head repeatedly.
While the two were talking, they did not forget to continue flying towards the center of the water. At the same time, the people behind them had also followed.
When they saw that there were only a dozen miles away from the small island in the center of the swamp, there was suddenly a "buzzing" sound under their feet.
The sound was very small at first, but gradually expanded and became deafening, as if millions of flies were flapping their wings.
Along with this buzzing sound, the water surface trembled violently, and then a huge wave came up. As the huge wave came, a strong cold air appeared from the water surface and spread.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Buzz!"
Groups of insects about a foot in size, all white, and extremely ferocious-looking bugs rushed out of the swamp. They flapped their wings and looked at the outsiders who had trespassed into the swamp with their blood-red eyes.
Accompanied by bursts of sharp chirping, these insects rushed toward the white-haired old man and several others, opening their mouths and spitting out bursts of cold air.
"No, it's ice-winged insects!" The moment the white-haired old man saw these insects, his expression changed drastically.
He quickly clapped the gourd in his hand, and red light erupted from the gourd, covering a large number of insects and sucking them away instantly.
But immediately, another large group of insects rushed up, spraying out streams of cold air at him.
At this time, the red gourd's mouth had automatically closed, and the old man's magic weapon had no more power left to deal with these insects.
And the cold air had already rushed in front of him, and easily broke through his body-protecting spiritual light.
Seeing that the white cold air was about to invade his body, the old man quickly opened his mouth and spit out a pure purple flame.
As soon as this beam of flame appeared, Ye Changsheng, who was standing far away and had not yet stepped into the water, shrank his pupils.
There was only a thin beam of flame, but as soon as it appeared, it exploded immediately, covering the entire space around the old man, blocking the cold air.
Although the old man temporarily blocked the cold attack of these ice-winged insects, there were too many ice-winged insects, which continued to consume his flames. His mana was consumed rapidly, and his face turned pale in the blink of an eye.
Not far away from him, several other people also encountered the same crisis. A black flag appeared in the hands of the black-faced man. Every time he waved it, a black mist would flow out.
As soon as the jade-white insects around him came into contact with this black mist, they immediately fell to the ground as if they had lost their souls.
In the blink of an eye, the water surface was covered with white insects.
But the number of ice-winged insects is simply too great to kill them all.
Moreover, every time one is killed, a lot of their mana will be consumed.
At this moment, as these ice-winged insects spewed out cold air, the entire sky above the swamp was completely enveloped by this cold air.
The white-haired old man, the black-faced man, and others seemed not to dare to touch the cold air at all. They avoided it like snakes and scorpions, and used various magic weapons, talismans, etc. to isolate themselves from the cold air.
For a moment, several people looked a little embarrassed.
However, Xu Qianyu, who had the weakest magic power, dealt with it the most easily. A cold jade flying sword flew beside him, strangling the insects that rushed up one after another.
At the same time, she held a white jade token in her hand, and the token radiated light. After the white cold air rushed over, all of it was sucked into it.
This woman didn't seem to be afraid of the cold at all, which made a few people nearby couldn't help but secretly envy her.
Within a few breaths, tens of thousands of ice-winged insects flew out of this swamp, and in the blink of an eye, white cold air enveloped the entire swamp.
But what is quite strange is that in the face of this extremely cold atmosphere, the water does not seem to be frozen at all, and is still rippling.
The white-haired old man and the others were not in the mood to speculate on why the water surface was not frozen at the moment. The cold air expelled by the ice-winged insects could block the consciousness, and at the same time, it also blocked the sight of the people wrapped inside, allowing them to see
What is it like outside?
For a moment, they were extremely anxious. They saw that their mana was being consumed violently, but they could not kill all the insects.
At this moment, Ye Changsheng, who was standing on the far shore, took action. He flicked his fingers, and after a flash of silver light, a shining silver winged pony appeared in front of him.
The pony looked at the cold air with a look of disdain intelligently, and then flapped its wings.
Silver lotuses appeared one after another, spinning slowly, and appeared in the sky above the water with a "swish" in the cold air.
"boom!"
With a crackling sound, these silver lotuses exploded, and in an instant, a silver wave appeared.
Silver flames instantly spread over the entire swamp, and the white misty cold air was swallowed up in the blink of an eye.
The thousands of ice-winged insects above the water swamp silently turned into flying ashes and disappeared in the raging silver flames.
However, in just a few breaths, the group of ice-winged insects that trapped the white-haired old man and others were wiped out by Ye Changsheng.
Seeing this scene, the white-haired old man and others all had horror in their eyes. They looked at each other and saw the shock on each other's faces.
There are so many ice-winged insects, and they can be burned up in one fire. How powerful is this magic power?
How powerful does the flame have to be?
Ordinary god-transforming monks would never be able to do this with such ease.
For a moment, several people secretly admired him and thought: "He is indeed the first generation of ascended monks!"
"Thank you very much, captain!" Seeing that the ice-winged insect was killed, the six people put away the magic weapons in their hands and thanked them one after another.
At this time, Ye Changsheng also flew over slowly. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "You go and collect the Bingluo Fruit!"
Hearing what he said, the white-haired old man and others all showed joy on their faces, and they immediately flew to the small island in the center of the water, took out the jade box, and carefully collected the bingluo fruits.
Xu Qianyu, on the other hand, did not fly over in a hurry. Instead, she stayed beside Ye Changsheng, with a look of doubt on her face and said:
"It's strange. This place is near the patrol route. How come there are so many Ice Logo fruits?"
"Didn't any of the teams that passed by before notice it?"
Hearing her words, Ye Changsheng's lips curled up, and he said with a faint smile: "That's because someone wants to use this thing to lure us here!"
"What?" Xu Qianyu's face immediately showed a look of shock when he heard this, a cold jade flying sword appeared in his hand, and a pair of starry eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly.
Ye Changsheng smiled faintly, looked at somewhere on the water, and said calmly: "These Taoist friends have been hiding for so long, it's time to come out, right?"
After he finished speaking, there was no movement on the water, and there was a dead silence.
Xu Qianyu carefully scanned the water surface several times with his spiritual consciousness, but found nothing unusual.
Just when she was wondering if Ye Changsheng had seen it wrong, suddenly a hoarse voice sounded: "Stop hiding, everyone has been discovered!"
"Hmph, Pu Ling, the ice-winged insects of the Water Spirit Tribe are so useless that they were burned up by someone's fire!"
"Yan Yan, what do you mean? Can't you see that the human monk used the true fire of the sun?" The hoarse voice asked angrily.
"Hehe, I can recognize the True Fire of the Sun, but you boasted about how powerful the Ice Winged Insect was in the beginning, and now you are easily killed by this person. Naturally, I have to doubt whether your Water Spirit Tribe has a false reputation?
"
"you"
"Okay, in front of a human monk, do you want to expose the internal conflicts of our spirit clan?" At this time, another voice sounded, interrupting the quarrel between the two.
"Hmph, it's just a human team. It will die at our hands soon. Are we afraid that they will know anything?" The man named Shi Yan snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
