In the world of treasure hunters, life and death are mostly just a matter of seconds.
However, in fact, the foreshadowing between life and death is far from being as simple as a moment.
Among the twelve outer disciples, if they were in danger, Wu Jie would give priority to rescuing those he liked more, and those he disliked would naturally be saved last.
But there were four of them whom he had not originally planned to save.
Zhong Chao, Xiao Shan, Tan Jinrong, Duan Yuanze.
Among these four people, Zhong Chao has an unruly personality and likes to show off his abilities and make trouble; Xiao Shan is sinister and despicable and hides evil intentions; Tan Jinrong and Duan Yuan Ze have directly killed him, and both have the reason that they are "not worth saving".
Wu Jie is indeed kind, but he is not a kind and soft-hearted person. On the contrary, he is actually very grudge-many, many years ago, when he was an inconspicuous Taoist monk in Kyushu Realm-"Entering Taoism" is a unique cultivation level in Kyushu Realm.
, using the standards of the Great Wilderness World, it is probably Qi Refining
At that time, he was almost at the bottom of the monk world - when he was attacked by an unreasonable dragon-headed giant turtle on his way home, he was quite embarrassed. Later, after his cultivation greatly improved, he went out to find this
The giant turtle, whose abilities are still about the same as before, has been taken care of.
At that time, Yin Shuang was watching from the side, laughing hard as he saw the strongest man in the Kyushu Realm bullying a turtle that didn't even have the level of Gang Refining - equivalent to the foundation building stage.
After the turtle was severely beaten by Wu Jie, he was captured back to Taoyuan County and imprisoned in a small lake, with a stone tablet pressed on its back. Only if it makes enough contributions to the lives of this area, can it rely on merit after God has given it a reward.
It will use its power to get out of trouble. When the time comes, the stone tablet will become a good magical weapon, which can be regarded as the reward for its many years of hard work.
If it refuses to repent and still wants to occupy the lake and attack everyone passing by, then the stone monument will become extremely heavy and crush it to death in the lake.
Wu Jie can still hold a grudge against a mere turtle, let alone several monks
Wu Jie is not an unreasonable person. He once gave these four people a chance. As long as they are willing to admit their mistakes or take remedial actions, he is not a man who will retaliate.
However, he waited for several days, and in the end, no one except Zhong Chao expressed anything.
He could only sneer at this: Since you want to die, then just die.
When the silver light struck, Wu Jie could have saved Tan Jinrong, but he didn't.
It's kind enough not to kill this guy. But you still expect him to come to the rescue? Are you kidding me?
In a flash of silver light, Tan Jinrong was reduced to pieces, and even the larger pieces could not be found. But the rest of the people had already seized the time to set up a formation.
The Four Seasons Flowing Formation requires twelve people, but they only have eleven at the moment. There are huge flaws in the formation. However, Wu Jie strolled over and filled the gap.
He didn't have a formation flag on hand, so he couldn't activate the formation in his position. But he already understood the layout of the formation, and there was absolutely no problem in just outputting mana to support the entire formation.
Smoke rose up and protected everyone. Only then did everyone feel relieved.
"Brother Tan," Duan Yuanze shouted, with a look of sadness on his face.
The two of them had similar personalities and had acted together for many years, and had done some shameful things. Seeing Jin Rong's sudden death at this moment, I couldn't help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox dying.
After yelling, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Wu Jie, his eyes wide with anger: "Why don't you help me?"
"I want to prevent other dangers here." Wu Jie said calmly, "There are eleven people on one side and one person on the other. Which side do you think I should protect?"
"The Ice Peak Absolute Sword has so many magical powers that it can come and go freely even if you fight one against a hundred. How can it be difficult for you to defeat you if you have two skills?"
"No matter who you are, multitasking will cause your strength to be dispersed. I will not take the risk of being dispersed for the sake of one person and unable to protect the other eleven people."
"Humph, you villain, you are just seeking revenge."
Wu Jie smiled coldly, raised his hand, grabbed Duan Yuanze, and threw him out of the formation.
The silver light flashed again, and Duan Yuan hurriedly used all kinds of methods, but he still ended up with the same end as Tan Jinrong.
In front of this silver light, his defensive methods were of no use at all.
"Yes, I am taking revenge." Wu Jie snorted disdainfully, "You are trying to kill me, why can't I retaliate? How can there be such a reason in the world?"
"I gave you a few days to wait for you to apologize and admit your mistakes. But what about you? You pretended to be nonchalant and seemed to think that I should forgive and forgive you - it's really shameless."
"There are quite a few people in this world who always think that they should take advantage and others should suffer. They will never forget when others have offended them, but they don't care when they offend others. Such despicable people actually infiltrated our Yujing.
It seems that our usual inspection and enforcement efforts are not enough."
Wu Jie said, flicking his fingers, and more than ten sword lights roared away, surrounding the silver light from all directions.
The silver light was surrounded by the sword light, but it couldn't get out of the conflict. It collided with the sword light several times. Not only was it unable to defeat the sword light, but it was shocked to the point of pain all over the body. The life-related energy was even almost dispersed.
Only then did he realize how powerful he was, so he stopped obediently and turned into a silver horse.
This horse is slightly smaller than ordinary horses, and it does not look majestic in appearance, but it naturally shows a sharp and ferocious look. On its forehead, there is a silver flame swaying and burning, and the flame is full of
It showed a chilling sharpness, almost like a sword light.
"Is it the Phantom Spirit Pony?" Mao Juan was most familiar with all kinds of monsters. He saw the origin of this horse at a glance and exclaimed, "This is incredible."
"I have never seen this kind of phantom spirit horse." Wang Shuang also said, "But I once saw a horse in the Dharma Realm that had the ability to swallow flesh and blood and temporarily accelerate it. It was sold at a high price."
Both of them were experts and told the origin of this object as soon as they opened their mouths. After being reminded by them, many people remembered it.
The so-called phantom horses refer to some horses with spiritual blood, but died unexpectedly before they grew up. For some reason, their souls did not return to the netherworld, but instead transformed into ghost-like alien species with the help of human power.
These phantom spirit horses have different abilities, but they are all extremely valuable monsters. In particular, they themselves have spirituality and can become spirit beasts without training. In fact, as long as they are well cultivated, they can often break through the "beast" realm very quickly.
"The limit of cultivation is transformed into a demon cultivator - even if the cultivation level is the same, the "demon" is far more capable and reliable than the "spiritual beast".
Moreover, the growth rate of the demon clan is beyond the reach of spiritual beasts.
Because the appearance of the Phantom Spirit Horse attracted everyone's attention, the affairs of Tan Jinrong and Duan Yuanze were temporarily ignored.
In fact, there is nothing he can do if he doesn't ignore it. Wu Jie made it very clear that the two of them took action to kill him first, so he would naturally retaliate. If the two of them admitted their mistakes and asked for punishment, the matter might be over. However, these two made Wu Jie
As a good gentleman, he ate as much as he wanted these past few days, laughed louder than anyone else when drinking, as if nothing had happened, and as if Wu Jie should forgive them of course...
However, the one who has the power to decide whether to forgive them is not themselves, but Wu Jie
Wu Jie's choice is not to forgive
No one has anything to say about this situation.
Zhong Chao secretly rejoiced - under the reminder of his clan brother Zhong Qi and the hint of captain Wei Mingfeng, he was lucky enough to resolve the conflict with Wu Jie, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.
Xiao Shan was horrified and quickly apologized to Wu Jie for the sarcastic remarks he had made. His words were sincere and his attitude was sincere, and he burst into tears.
Wu Jie smiled and said lightly: "If you really regret it, then show it with practical actions in future treasure hunts."
He is not a young man who is just starting out and will be deceived by a few words. Xiao Shan is obviously a cunning person. For such a person, there is no need to listen to his words, just watch his actions attentively.
While he was speaking, Maojuan had already stepped forward and used the unique method of taming orcs to communicate with the phantom spirit pony with silver flames burning on its forehead.
It can be seen that this phantom spirit horse is quite unruly and vicious, and does not want to surrender. But surrounded by Wu Jie's sword light, its life is at stake, and it really doesn't have much to be proud of.
After some negotiation, the phantom spirit pony finally lowered its head, bent its front legs, and knelt down towards Maojuan, allowing Maojuan to cast a spell to remove a wisp of the natal silver fire from its forehead and impose a restraint.
"I named you Yinhuo. You must make progress and stop trying to harm others."
The phantom spirit pony hissed loudly and lowered its head to the ground, as if it was kowtowing to receive a commandment.
From this moment on, it is no longer the demon "Phantom Spirit Horse" roaming the mountains and fields, but the domestic spiritual beast "Silver Fire".
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Mao." Wu Jie smiled and cupped his hands, "This is not a small gain."
"Ah? The silver fire was obviously conquered by senior brother..." Mao Juan was about to hand Wu Jie the token to ban the "silver fire", but unexpectedly Wu Jie seemed to have no interest in it and was stunned for a moment.
"To be honest, I don't like riding horses." Wu Jie said with a smile, "And if you want to be my disciple, this guy is not qualified. So since you have put a ban on it, then let it follow.
You are fine.
When everyone heard this, their eyes widened and they looked at Mao Juan with envy.
The Phantom Spirit Horse is not an ordinary spirit beast, it is very expensive. Compared with the big earthworm he caught before! It is worthless compared to it!
Being able to get such a phantom spirit pony, Mao Juan’s treasure hunt can really be called a bumper harvest.
Mao Juan went to the side to communicate with Yinhuo and asked about the situation nearby, while everyone packed up the relics of Tan Jinrong and Duan Yuanze. When they packed up the two formation flags, Wei Mingfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The deaths of these two people were completely deserved, but the Four Seasons Flowing Formation was incomplete.
No matter how capable Wu Jie is, he can only fill one seat by himself, and currently there are two seats missing.
Seeing his troubled face, Wu Jie didn't understand what he meant. He smiled and whispered: "Third Sister, Xiaoqi, please come and help me."
There was a flash of light, and two figures appeared next to him, it was Du Ruo and Xiao Qi.
"I will teach you the formation map of the Four Seasons Flowing Formation. The formation flags are ready-made. While hunting for treasures and practicing at the same time, you should be familiar with them soon," Wu Jie said.
"How can it be so troublesome?" Du Ruo smiled proudly, and the red shadow flashed in front of Wei Mingfeng, taking a formation flag from his hand, raising his hand, and mist flourished. Although it was limited to his cultivation level, there was no
It was thick when it was in Tan Jinrong's hands, but there was a lively spirit in the mist, which was much better than Tan Jinrong's monotonous operation method.
Wu Jie was stunned for a moment, but then he saw Xiao Qi also walking over, taking the other formation flag, and waved it lightly, and a cloud of mist spread around, turning into various animals, birds and beasts, all vivid and vivid.
It looks almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
"I can do this." She said calmly.
Only then did Wu Jie come back to his senses and burst into laughter.
Du Ruo is a first-class genius. She is just a four-season flow formation. She already understood it by looking at the formation diagram on the day she was drinking; and Xiao Qi even combined this formation with her own cultivation techniques.
By referring to this, I broke through the bottleneck of cultivation.
Although they still need to practice and run in with the others in terms of skilled cooperation, at least in terms of controlling the formation flag, they have no problem at all.
Wei Mingfeng waited until the two practiced the formation, nodded, and then asked about their origins.
"I am the lord's subordinate." Xiao Qi rushed to answer, "Similar to... a Taoist soldier."
"I am his sister, and I have been staying in the soul-nurturing jade." Du Ruo said with a smile, "But he is very capable, and I rarely have the opportunity to take action. This is the first time we met. From now on, we will take care of each other and cooperate well."
Only then did everyone understand and nodded.
Yin Huo is a native here and is quite familiar with the local situation. Under his guidance, everyone spent more than half a month searching for valuable resources within a thousand miles radius.
Of course, with Wu Jie in charge, it was impossible for them to do anything but fish in the swamp. All kinds of precious resources were not fully exploited. At least some were left behind for future generations.
Although... no one knows whether there will be any more "descendants" in this small world.
It's been a busy half month. Everyone has to collect those precious resources, and at the same time, they have to re-rehearse and become familiar with the formations. It's really a bit overwhelming.
But this half month was also very enjoyable. Everyone was smiling happily as they watched the harvests continue to increase, even exceeding expectations.
In fact, their gains were already a lot, but the things they gained through hard work were not as happy as the things they worked hard for.
Sweat and gain, this process is inherently enjoyable.
After half a month of busy work, Wei Mingfeng suggested that everyone return here.
"We have already gained a lot. If we continue to explore, we are taking unnecessary risks." He said, "What people fear most is greed. Having gained so much, it is enough."
Wu Jie nodded slightly in his mind, but did not express his position. Instead, he looked at others.
"I don't agree," Zhong Chao said hurriedly, "Although we have gained a lot, to be honest, we have never seen anything truly worthy of the title - Senior Brother Wei, with your qualifications, external objects can no longer help much.
You are very busy. And those who can really help you, do you think you can buy them with your current harvest?"
Wei Mingfeng was silent for a while and sighed softly.
"I don't agree to go back either." Yu Chenzi, the heavenly monk who rarely spoke, whispered, "In the past few days, I have often felt that there is great danger ahead, but at the same time there is great opportunity. I don't know this
It feels right, but now I
I am almost seven thousand years old, and I have only survived to this day by relying on the life-extending elixir - but I am almost reaching my limit. If I don't work hard, I can only wait for my life span to run out, instead of dying in the cave.
I would rather fall down while pursuing opportunities.”
This old man with white beard and hair is usually very silent. Even if he gets something good, he rarely smiles. Now he speaks his mind directly and his attitude is very firm. Obviously, even if Wei Mingfeng turns back, even if Wu Jie turns back, even if everyone turns back,
He will move forward alone
Infected by his determination, everyone who was initially hesitant also tended to continue hunting for the treasure.
Seeing this situation, Wei Mingfeng couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, since everyone is so determined, Wei will risk his life to accompany the gentleman."
As he said that, he took a deep breath, patted his face, and cheered himself up a bit: "But I want to say something ugly beforehand. Treasure hunting is a very dangerous and difficult thing. Along the way, you may encounter not only
It is dangerous and you will encounter many difficulties. So you must listen to my command when the time comes - if you don't listen to my command, then I will leave without saying a word."
"Don't worry, Old Wei, we will definitely obey your orders."
"Yes, senior brother Wei, don't worry."
"We are not just fledgling children. We still understand the principles of order and prohibition."
"Senior Brother Wei, don't worry, we will obey orders and obey them."
When Wei Mingfeng's eyes fell on his face without flinching, Wu Jie couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, if you need me to take action, just ask."
After receiving Wu Jie's assurance, Wei Mingfeng showed a satisfied smile and gained confidence in his smile.
With Wu Jie's strength, no matter how big the risk is ahead, he will still have the confidence to take on the challenge
In fact... he himself really wants to try it out. As Zhong Chao said, his qualifications are too poor. If he can't get some heaven-defying treasures, he will never break through the realm of Dao Fruit and achieve anything in his life.
The chance of immortality. If there was no hope, he would have resigned himself to his fate, but now that there was hope, even he couldn't help but want to fight and work hard.
Life is important, but if you give up the pursuit of your dreams for the sake of life, how can such a person achieve the superior golden elixir and reach the realm of Tao and Fruit step by step?
Wei Mingfeng knew that the opportunity to achieve immortality was difficult to obtain, but if he didn't work hard, to be honest, he wouldn't be willing to do it.
