Xu Rui opened his eyebrows and looked at the land thousands of miles away before his eyes.
When you first see it, the scenery is no different from the surrounding area. It is still a series of rivers and lakes, dotted with green patches covered with green trees.
However, compared to the outer areas, the water is getting less and there are more woods of all sizes.
These broken islands covered with vegetation have cut the entire water area beyond recognition.
Xu Rui slapped the magic bag, and a seven-story and eight-sided pagoda flew out of it.
It is his natal spiritual weapon.
Qibao Hunyuan Tower.
Under the influence of mana, the phantom of a stone plate with the Big Dipper on one side and the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams on the bottom appeared around.
Soon, the Seven-Star Stone Disk shone brightly, and the golden Bagua on the back began to rotate rapidly.
Driven by his magic power, the Golden Bagua rotated faster and faster, and at the end it turned into a golden disc, but even so, there was still no hint in Xu Rui's sea of consciousness.
He sighed and stopped rather unwillingly.
In the end, the Seven Star Stone Plate is just an inferior spiritual weapon, although with the blessing of the Seven Treasures Hunyuan Tower, it can exert the deductive effect of a superior spiritual weapon.
But the Blood-devouring Bead is at least a top-grade magic weapon, and its grade is much higher than the Seven Treasures Hunyuan Pagoda and the Seven-Star Stone Plate, so it is expected that no useful information can be obtained.
"It would be great if we could make the Seven Treasures Hunyuan Pagoda a step further."
Xu Rui thought.
As a magical weapon facing the Lingbao Puppet Technique, with Xu Rui's continuous understanding, the Lingbao Puppet Technique has reached the middle stage of Yuanshen.
The Seven Treasures Hunyuan Pagoda also has the foundation to become a medium-level magic weapon.
However, Maoshan's spiritual resources are limited, and the ability to achieve superior spiritual weapons is already the limit.
Now that I have just obtained this treasure, Xu Rui has not yet had time to practice it.
"How about not waiting for another three years and first cultivating the Seven Treasures Hunyuan Pagoda before taking action?"
He quickly shook his head.
He didn't want to wait any longer.
And he has made up his mind that if he can't find the Blood-devouring Bead, he will go to the Heavenly Emperor's treasury to find the third volume of the Heavenly Book.
Anyway, it's a smooth road.
Having made up his mind, he waved his right hand and the scroll that had been carried behind his back slowly flew out.
Accompanied by a bright spiritual light, it slowly spread out in front of him.
"Everyone, come out."
Swish swish swish….
A full twenty-eight seconds later, a spiritual light flew out from it.
They are the twenty-eight spiritual birds that he painstakingly cultivated.
After more than seven years, each of these spiritual birds with innate Taoist qualifications has already reached the late stage of Jindan.
He is also accompanied by the superior spiritual weapon he refined.
Such a being is an elite no matter where he is placed.
"See your Lord."
He nodded with satisfaction, "Get up."
All the soul birds got up.
"As you can see, this is the Great Western Swamp."
That thing was so big that all the spiritual birds had keen senses, so they had naturally seen it a long time ago.
"You will work in pairs and explore the four directions for me. If you come across a place filled with death and no living beings, remember to report it as soon as possible."
He remembered that it was written in Zhu Xian's novel that when Tianyin Temple Puzhi was collecting medicine in the western swamp, he accidentally discovered a place where all life had disappeared. Out of curiosity, he went to check and found the blood-devouring bead.
So this place where all life has disappeared has become the only clue.
"Please obey the Lord's decree."
All the birds responded solemnly.
"In this large swamp, there are dangers everywhere, and there are many strong people. You should be more careful. In addition, you must remember that Neize protected by the miasma is not allowed to pass."
There are yellow birds and black water snakes in the inner swamp, and the spiritual birds are no match for them.
And the blood-devouring beads are most likely not there either.
"yes."
Xu Rui waved his hand, "Let's all go."
All the spiritual birds followed his instructions, flying in groups of two and two, in all directions like lightning.
"Mirage, Hu Shou, Sirius?"
"master."
"The three of you are heading to the southeast, due south and southwest respectively, meandering behind. If you encounter someone who is blind and looks for trouble, no matter who he is, I will give him a good beating."
All the spirit birds were raised by him at the Flower Cleansing Marrow Point, and they had huge potential. The loss of one of them made him feel distressed. To ensure safety, he had Mirage Dragon and his three souls protect him, so he could feel more at ease.
"Respect the law and decree."
The three of them responded respectfully and quickly chased after them in the direction instructed.
Xu Rui himself was not idle either, he activated his escape method and flew towards the depths of the swamp.
The eyes between the brows are so bright that everything within a thousand miles can be seen before your eyes.
His divine eyes are much easier to use than the eyes of all spiritual birds. As long as he looks over, there will never be anything missed.
It's a pity that the swamp is too huge, and if he had to search for them one by one by himself, he would die from exhaustion.
It was beyond his expectation.
I thought it would take a long time to wait, but I didn't expect that there would be news only half an hour after the soul birds left.
Xu Rui's heart was shocked, and he quickly used his spiritual skills to switch the vision of the spiritual bird to the bottom of his heart.
What you can see is a black mud pit that is as big as a thousand acres.
The mud pit is not deep, and the inside is uneven. There is miasma floating on the yellow smelly water, and some bright poisonous weeds grow in the smelly mud and flutter in the wind.
A toad the size of a washbasin with bumps on its back was devouring a two-headed snake.
Xu Rui saw this, and the excitement he had just aroused in his heart was instantly knocked down.
With the power of the blood-devouring bead, even if no one activates it, all the essence within a hundred miles will be swallowed up by it. Therefore, there is no possibility of any poisonous weeds around the blood-devouring bead, let alone other poisons.
Although he thought it was impossible, Xu Rui thought about it and urged the Wind and Thunder Wings to rush over.
Watch him come.
Feng Huang and Feng Zhou quickly greeted him.
"master."
After Xu Rui nodded, he raised his eyebrows and looked up, and sure enough, there was no light at all.
He sighed in disappointment.
"If you encounter a place like this in the future, don't tell me again. What I'm looking for is a place of complete death. There are no poisonous weeds, and not even a single poisonous thing can be seen."
The two spiritual birds, Feng Huang and Feng Zhou, quickly agreed.
"Okay, you go."
After the two birds agreed quickly, they transformed into their original bodies and flew away.
Xu Rui shook his head and continued his treasure hunt.
But accidents always come unexpectedly.
When Xu Rui used the marrow cleansing point to advance the twenty-eight spiritual birds, they also awakened different natal magical powers.
Although most of them are related to the Way of the Wind, there are some exceptions.
As mentioned before, the twenty-eight spiritual birds are named after the twenty-eight characters "The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast, the sun and the moon are waxing, the stars and constellations are arranged, the cold comes and the summer goes, the autumn is harvested and the winter is hidden, and the leap years are full of years".
.
The existence of this spiritual bird with unique supernatural powers is called "Wind Su".
He awakened a magical power called "Eagle Eye" that was similar to Seo Rui's thunder eye.
However, its magical power has no offensive power, but its advantage is that it can see thousands of miles at a glance, and it has the ability to see through reality and reality.
Logically speaking, it would be more appropriate for him to search for the blood-devouring beads than Xu Rui himself and other spiritual birds.
But Xu Rui was afraid that the blood-devouring bead had not been discovered for many years, and that it would most likely be covered by powerful restrictions like the original Albizia Bell.
However, Feng Su's eagle eye is limited to his own cultivation level, but he cannot see through the restrictions above level seven.
If we focus on him, if we miss the true location of the blood-devouring bead, all our efforts will be in vain.
So he didn't give too many instructions to Feng Su.
"Huh?"
Fengsu, who was flying in the sky, suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Feng Han, who was with him next to him, asked.
"There is a treasure in the lake ahead."
Fengsu spoke with excitement.
His eagle eyes saw clearly that there was a string of rich precious light directed towards the bullfight.
This precious light cannot be seen with the naked eye, only those with spiritual eyes like him can see it clearly.
"Baby, what baby?"
Feng Han also became interested.
He knew that Feng Su had the magical power to distinguish truth from falsehood and see through illusion.
"It's at least a seventh-grade spiritual material. Come on, let's take it up and bring it to the master. It will be considered our credit." Feng Su was ready to make a move.
"Wait a minute. The master asked us to find a place where life is extinct. If we cause trouble, I'm afraid I will blame the master." Feng Han said quickly.
"Are you really afraid? Anyway, the master didn't tell us that we must find the place where all life is extinct within a few days. Moreover, this treasure has neither forbidden protection nor powerful beasts to protect it. We won't waste much time to retrieve it. Come on, treasure
It’s not too late to find the Jedi you want from me.”
Xu Rui's puppet seal only guarantees the loyalty of all the soul birds, but their personalities are not the same.
Some are cautious, some are bold, and some are steady.
This Fengsu is obviously the bold type.
Feng Han was cautious and while he was still hesitating, Feng Su, with golden eyes and golden claws, like a golden-winged roc, folded his wings and flew towards the small lake covering hundreds of acres not far away like lightning.
Seeing this, Feng Han sighed in his heart, folded his wings, and flew away.
Unlike Fengsu, which is like a golden-winged roc, its appearance is more like a blue phoenix, with three two-foot-long feathers at the back of its tail, shining with a green aura, like tassels, and is extremely beautiful.
In fact.
Most of Xu Rui's twenty-eight spiritual birds are in the shape of rocs and phoenixes, with few exceptions.
In just a few breaths, the two spiritual birds arrived above the lake.
The nearly ten feet long wings spread out, causing the originally calm lake surface to turn into turbulent waves.
"Fengsu, where is the treasure you mentioned?"
"It's just under the lake, but there's a snake guarding this treasure. We have to kill it first."
Feng Su's eyes were shining brightly, and he could clearly see everything within thousands of miles under the lake, and there was a hint of greed in his eyes.
As the blood of the golden-winged roc in the body continues to awaken, the greed of the eating dragon is also aroused.
Although there was only one snake in the lake, it still had some dragon blood, which was enough for him to satisfy his cravings.
"This beast probably sensed our threat and didn't dare to come out." Feng Han said.
"Then force it out."
Feng Han nodded, "You and I will do it at the same time."
"good."
Feng Han's slender tail feathers flickered, and the soft wind that was originally wrapped around the tail feathers instantly turned into a rolling storm, and the moment it fell into the lake, thousands of rapids were stirred up.
Feng Su put his wings together and slashed downwards, and a cross wind slash seven or eight feet long flew towards the lake like lightning.
Huge cross cuts instantly appeared in the rolling water.
As soon as they made a move, the lake, which was not too big at first, was suddenly filled with huge waves, almost overturning it.
The snake dragon, which has been the king of this lake for many years, has never suffered from such anger. His thick body swayed like a dragon emerging from the water.
boom.
It was as if a mine had exploded on the rolling lake.
Along with the huge waves rising into the sky, a snake dragon with no horns on its head and three legs sprouted from its belly flew out from it like lightning.
The body is over ten feet tall and extremely thick, and the scales the size of a washbasin shine like gold and iron in the dazzling sunlight.
"Who are you, and why have you offended my 'Godly Dragon Lake'...?"
"That bullshit divine dragon will kill you."
Seeing him come out, Feng Su's heart moved, and a blue long sword spurted out from his mouth.
In an instant, powerful sword energy struck at him like a gust of wind and rain.
Next to him, Fenghan was not far behind, and a similar green sword flew out of his mouth.
This green long sword is called the 'Qingfeng Sword'. It is a high-quality spiritual weapon refined by Xu Rui, and each of the twenty-eight spirit birds has one hand.
Although it may not look like a standard spiritual weapon, its power is quite impressive.
The sword comes out like lightning, and the sword light is like rain.
The sharp sword energy instantly enveloped the snake dragon.
The strong murderous intention made the snake dragon tremble in its heart, and it did not dare to neglect. It suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed out a bright dragon bead.
With its appearance, the surrounding water vapor suddenly surged, and the billowing torrents rose into the sky like an erupting volcano.
It's a pity that this wild snake dragon can't stop two masters of the same realm from fighting with only one life dragon bead.
With a scream, one of the claws was chopped off.
The hot red blood dyed the lake water red.
Ga!
The loud chirping shook the sky.
Snake Dragon's heart trembled, and a kind of fear and anger engraved in his genes rushed into his heart.
Before it could make any move, the roar of the wind overwhelmed its head.
Two golden claws as big as millstones clawed down like razors.
The snake dragon tilted its head instinctively.
laugh!
Blood flew everywhere, and the sharp claws directly penetrated the strong armor and embedded deeply into the flesh.
The wings spread out and the strong wind blows.
The snake dragon with a body length of more than ten feet was actually grabbed out of the lake by Feng Su with golden wings and golden claws.
The sharp and strong eagle's beak pecked hard.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and bones were exposed.
The snake dragon struggled desperately under severe pain, but Feng Su's iron-like claws never relaxed at all.
The eagle's beak pecked hard again.
Card.
The white bones were broken, and the snake dragon's body collapsed.
Fengsu roared happily, opened his eagle beak, and swallowed the dragon bead directly.
Then he swung it and threw the snake dragon, which looked like a broken sack, onto the shore.
Seeing its happy expression, Feng Han said angrily: "You didn't deliberately make up a lie about the treasure here just for the sake of this long snake, did you?"
Feng Su stretched out a magic bag and put the body of the snake dragon inside. It was so easy to get such a snake dragon with thin dragon blood. He wanted to keep it and eat it slowly.
"If there is really no treasure here, even if you give me ten courages, I would not dare to delay the master's important event for my own selfishness."
It doesn't look like he's faking it.
"Then hurry up. It's been a long delay. If the master blames you, we can't afford to walk around in circles."
Feng Su also knew not to delay for too long.
"Come with me."
The huge body, accompanied by a rich spiritual light, suddenly turned into a human body. After performing a water-proofing technique, he fell into the lake.
Wind chill followed closely behind.
This lake doesn't look big, but it's very deep.
Because of the previous battle, the water in the lake was very turbid, but the two spirit birds had excellent eyesight, so they didn't notice anything.
After going a hundred feet deep into the lake, a huge boulder appeared in front of us.
This boulder looks like an upside-down hill inserted deep into the bottom of the lake, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.
The top platform is more than ten acres in size.
The blue-black rock was polished extremely smooth and smelled like a snake, which was obviously the place where the snake dragon was entrenched.
And in the core of this boulder.
A strange aqua blue lotus grows on it.
A root as thick as a thumb is embedded in the stone, and three emerald-like lotus leaves sway with the water flow.
There are twelve lotus seeds growing on the nine-pin lotus platform.
The rich green light illuminated the surrounding area.
"This is a top-grade seventh-grade spiritual object."
"What, I didn't lie to you?" Feng Su looked proud.
"You have made a meritorious deed this time."
"Hehe, it's not just me, but also you. When we go back this time, the master will even reward us with two drops of spiritual wine to try."
Hearing this, Feng Han licked his lips, with a hint of yearning in his eyes.
Although I have never drunk the spirit wine in the gourd on my waist, the taste is simply too delicious.
"Let's hurry up and send this elixir back as soon as possible." Feng Han said quickly.
Stepping forward, he circled around the lotus first, then waved his sword energy and cut off all the stones three feet around where the roots of the lotus were.
After carefully putting it into the bag, he breathed a sigh of relief.
