It's just that Jiang Chen, an expert in art, is bold, but he doesn't worry so much.
Sure enough, after traveling about one or two hundred miles, the depth of this endless cave became obviously wider. The various underground creatures in the cave also became active.
On the third and fourth days that followed, Jiang Chen's harvest became rich again.
On the third day, eleven Green Spirit Beads were harvested.
On the fourth day, eight Qingling Pearls were harvested.
After calculating this, the total harvest in four days was as many as thirty-four.
"Thirty-four pills in four days. At this rate, we can still complete the mission ahead of schedule." Jiang Chen calculated his income and found that there were still sixty-six pills short of the mission goal.
However, on the fifth day, something strange happened again.
The number of green-winged swordbirds in the caves a hundred or two hundred miles away has once again declined sharply.
"The Blue-Winged Sword Bird, is it really that wise?" Jiang Chen was a little confused. There is no such introduction in the official information provided by the Qianlong Trials.
Moreover, based on the experience left by predecessors in the past, there are enough green-winged swordbirds in the first and second levels of space.
Unless it is a mission for a first-level prince, you occasionally need to enter the third level of space.
However, Jiang Chen now calculated that he should have entered the second level of space. And in this second level of space, it is obvious that the green-winged sword bird has become extinct.
"Damn it, isn't this a lie? When did it become so difficult to find the Blue-winged Swordbird? The information is all misleading, right? It is said that the most underground creature in this endless cave is the Blue-winged Swordbird! But!
, I haven't even encountered a bird feather these days."
"Yes, I just challenge the seventh-grade princes and get ten green spirit beads. Doesn't God even allow me to complete such a simple task?"
Jiang Chen heard similar complaints again.
He also felt strange in his heart. Logically speaking, if the green-winged sword bird was so difficult to find, the amount of the task would not be set so high.
Could it be said that this green-winged sword bird was driven away by humans?
Jiang Chen frowned slightly when he thought of this possibility. It was not impossible. With the domineering power of Long Yinye and Long Juxue, their brother and sister could definitely do such a thing.
"If they have any special means to drive away the Blue-winged Swordbirds all the way and release a signal that makes the Blue-winged Swordbirds fearful, it is entirely possible to drive the Blue-winged Swordbirds deeper into the cave."
Jiang Chen's thoughts turned to this and he cursed secretly. He felt that his guess was probably reasonable.
"If it is true as I guessed, the Long family brothers and sisters are too cruel. They are trying to cut off the descendants of those low-level princes!"
The descendants of low-level princes have average strength and do not have enough strength to break into the third level of the cave. They can only wander around in the first and second levels of space as guerrillas.
If the green-winged swordbirds in the first and second dimensions are driven away, it will be a disaster for these people!
"But, what are the benefits of doing this?" Jiang Chen thought carefully.
Is it convenient for them to hunt? Although this reason is possible, it is not the most important. With the strength of the Long family brothers and sisters, hunting the Blue-winged Swordbird will definitely not take so much effort.
Is that to suppress other princes? This possibility is also possible. After all, Lord Long Teng is very ambitious, attacking princes who are at odds with him, and subduing those princes who have taken refuge in him, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the ownership of princes. This is very possible.
possible!
"Well! If the Long family brothers and sisters kill enough Green Winged Sword Birds, the descendants of the princes who join them can get the Green Spirit Pearl from their hands; if the descendants of the princes who are displeased by the Long family will be disgraced and get nothing, they will lose the princes.
make!"
Vicious, it is indeed a vicious and desperate plan!
"The Long family really has no bottom line. However, how can I, Jiang Chen, let you lead me by the nose?" Jiang Chen was also angered by the Long family's methods.
Jiang Chen simply stopped moving forward. After four or five days of hunting, Jiang Chen got a lot of training. The boundaries of the eight meridians of true energy also showed signs of breaking through.
Jiang Chen found a remote corner and simply started practicing.
If Jiang Chen wanted to hide, he wouldn't have to worry about anyone coming up to disturb him in this endless cave. But just because no one could find him, it didn't mean he was absolutely safe.
The most terrifying thing in this cave is the underground creature.
Jiang Chen placed several simple arrangements around him, including various poisons and clever arrangements, forming a self-protection trap.
Regardless of whether it is a person or an underground creature, as long as it breaks into this circle, it will be poisoned.
Two days passed.
When Jiang Chen opened his eyes, he saw that the violent zhenqi in his body was suppressed one by one by him. The nine meridians of zhenqi were like the water of nine rivers overflowing, with a majestic momentum, running wild in his body.
"One step closer to success." A satisfied smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face, "The Nine Meridians of True Qi is the pinnacle of the high-level True Qi realm. If you take another step forward, you will become a True Qi master. However, with my current situation,
With his cultivation level, even if he is a master of the ten meridians of true qi, why should I be afraid?"
It's not that Jiang Chen is overconfident, but that he does have the capital to be proud.
After entering the Nine Meridians True Qi, combined with powerful martial arts, the combat effectiveness will inevitably increase exponentially.
Especially the "Tianmu Divine Pupil", after surviving in this cave for six or seven days, Jiang Chen clearly felt that the realm of "Tianmu Divine Pupil" had improved to the sixth level.
"It seems that my Celestial Eye is the most outstanding among the four magical powers. This cave is dark, but I didn't expect that practicing the Celestial Eye will be of great benefit."
The sixth level of the Heavenly Eye has indeed improved a lot compared to before. In Jiang Chen's eyes, this dark cave is no different from the cloudy sky in the daytime.
Although the field of vision is not as wide as Qingtian, it is already a unique advantage compared to other warriors.
The breakthrough and improvement in strength gave Jiang Chen more confidence.
"Brothers and sisters of the Long family, I don't know where the trouble is now! Hum, no matter how much trouble they make, they will eventually see the truth in the third dimension. The fourth dimension is a forbidden area. Princess Magatama has repeatedly emphasized that it cannot be entered. Since
If they continue to make trouble like this, the third dimension will already be at its limit!"
Jiang Chen is different from those descendants of low-level princes. Those people dare not break into the third dimension, but he, Jiang Chen, has enough capital to break into it.
When Jiang Chen walked out of this remote corner, he realized that he had underestimated the wisdom of others. From some gossip from the outside world, Jiang Chen discovered that those descendants of the princes had discovered that someone was causing trouble. Now, the descendants of the princes have formed groups in twos and threes.
, heading to the third dimension.
One person's power is limited, but it's always possible to form a group, right?
As for who caused the trouble, most speculations point directly at the Long family brothers and sisters.
However, there is another terrible rumor that actually poured dirty water on him, Jiang Chen!
"It seems that the Long family brothers and sisters have put some thought into targeting me?" Jiang Chen smiled coldly. He was tired of this cat-and-mouse game.
Since there are so many boring speculations from the outside world, Jiang Chen simply stops hiding and avoids people like before.
One day later, Jiang Chen felt that the temperature in the cave had dropped even lower, and the muddy swamp under his feet also seemed to be full of dangers.
"It seems that this is entering the third dimension." Jiang Chen also became cautious at his feet.
In this swamp, some monsters will appear from time to time, including tentacle monsters, evil plants, and various armor-eating demonic insects...
Even Jiang Chen's traveling speed has obviously slowed down.
However, entering the third dimension, the number of green-winged swordbirds has obviously increased a lot.
However, Jiang Chen has to spend a lot of time dealing with various threats below the swamp, and his hunting of the Green-winged Swordbird will inevitably be affected.
Three days passed, and Jiang Chen killed another twenty-three green-winged swordbirds.
As a result, he collected fifty-seven Qing Ling Beads.
And time has passed exactly ten days.
"In ten days, I harvested fifty-seven, which is slower than I expected. I'm just curious, why is there not a silver-winged sword bird along the way?"
Jiang Chen is a little tired of hunting the blue-winged swordbird. You know, a silver-winged swordbird has a silver spirit bead.
Obtaining one silver spirit bead is equivalent to ten green spirit beads.
Jiang Chen now has forty-three green spirit beads left to collect, but if they were replaced by silver spirit beads, there would only be five silver spirit beads.
"Look, that's Jiang Chen!"
"Yes, Jiang Chen finally showed up. Why is he still collecting Blue-winged Swordbirds?"
"So, he shouldn't be the one causing trouble. If it were him, he should have collected enough by now!"
Jiang Chen showed up deliberately to prove this to the outside world and force the Long family brothers and sisters out of the corner.
"Brother Jiang Chen." Bai Zhanyun walked out of the dark corner.
"Brother Bai." The two of them didn't know each other. Jiang Chen didn't have any bad feelings towards Bai Zhanyun, at least Bai Zhanyun knew his mistakes and could change them.
"You must also know that someone is causing trouble in this endless cave. They have driven all the blue-winged sword birds into this third dimension, making it very difficult for everyone to hunt. Now ten days have passed, and most people are still far away from completing their goals.
!I wonder how Brother Jiang Chen has gained?"
"It's still half way." Jiang Chen didn't hide anything.
"So, it's not brother Jiang Chen who is causing trouble?"
"Do you think I'm so boring?" Jiang Chen said indifferently, "Some people are ambitious and want to control the ownership of the princes' orders by controlling the blue-winged sword bird and swaying the competition. This means that those who obey me will prosper, and those who go against me will prosper.
Death."
"Is this... really a good thing done by the Long family?" Bai Zhanyun's face turned slightly cold.
As soon as he said this, someone immediately noticed something unusual and shouted: "Yes, look, who are those of us who can't hunt the Blue-winged Sword Bird? Those descendants of the princes who are close to the Longteng Hou Mansion, have you seen
Have you passed?"
"Yeah, I really didn't see any of them! The Long family is really manipulating the game!"
"Damn it, it's so despicable and shameless! This is still the world of the Eastern Kingdom! Aren't they afraid of causing public outrage when they do this?"
Suddenly, the anger that these descendants of the princes had suppressed for a long time broke out.
This matter is already very clear. Those who do not have close contact with Long Tenghou and have no refuge will basically be empty-handed and gain nothing.
As for the descendants of the princes who were close to Long Tenghou, none of them could be seen at the scene.
Even a fool can see that it is definitely the Long family brothers and sisters who are causing trouble!
However, they sadly discovered that there seemed to be no restrictions on this kind of thing in the rules of Qianlong Trial!
