Chapter 113: Its been such a long time that I miss you so much!
On the Demon Prison Island surrounded by evil spirits, He Gu, dressed in black, was flying through the stone forest.
I met many Wu Zong disciples along the way.
The trial had just started not long ago, and most of the disciples who participated in the trial were active near the outer teleportation points, so most of the people they saw were female disciples from Wuxin Peak.
He deliberately avoided it and did not come forward to strike up a conversation.
These people couldn't tell He Gu's identity for a while, and they kept a distance with each other in a tacit understanding.
The two sides were in peace for the time being, each looking for the elixir that might appear in the crevices of the rocks and ravines.
Not long after, He Gu stopped at a dry gravel beach.
In front of you is an unknown elixir that is completely dark in color. Its color blends in with the brown surface. It can easily be missed by the human eye if you don't look carefully.
He stretched out his hand to touch the leaves of the elixir, and by sensing the fluctuations in the medicinal power within it, he judged that it was an elixir of the highest quality.
Pick the elixir at random, place it in a jade box and store it in a storage bag.
In less than half an hour, he obtained an elixir of inferior character. It was only now that he could truly feel the benefits brought by the Demon-Conquering Trial.
His motivation increased greatly, and he stood up without stopping and continued to fly forward.
He Gu spent the next day searching for elixirs, and the number of newly obtained elixirs in the storage bag increased from one to nearly twenty.
This needs to be placed in the outside world. Unless we encounter some blessed places, we simply cannot achieve such efficiency.
Even though they are all of inferior character, the guaranteed value of the spiritual stones would be nearly 20,000 spiritual stones.
An unimaginable harvest.
I feel emotional, no wonder Wu Zong disciples are so keen to participate in the Demon Subduing Trial.
At the same time, he also discovered a pattern. It seemed that the deeper into the elixir, the stronger the medicinal power contained, and there was a tendency to gradually approach the middle-class character.
As time went by, there were gradually more and more disciples from the Five Peaks on the road, but overall, the disciples from Wuxin Peak still accounted for the most.
At this time, the disciples of Wuyi Peak were all busy looking for the elixir, and there was no sign of gathering.
He Gu guessed that they should set the time to regroup at a certain time before the demon begins to unearth activities, and then rely on team strength to survive the most dangerous "midnight" period.
After a day in the outside world, the density of gray fog on Demon Prisoner Island was only slightly thicker than when we first entered, and the visibility in the field of vision dropped to about eighty feet.
When the visibility shrinks to less than ten feet, it is the time when the demon is most active, and he must set up a hiding place before then, and it is best to locate it outside the Demon Prisoner Island.
Tempted by the surge in the number of elixirs he obtained, He Gu looked ahead with growing emotion in his eyes.
If you go deeper, you will have a high chance of collecting elixirs of lower level and above. Maybe there are elixirs of earth level in the center of the island!
At this time, he understood one of the great benefits of other peak disciples gathering together as a group. They could boldly go deep into the process of searching for the elixir, and the process of collecting the elixir was also a process of gathering together large groups.
And he was more confused.
For safety reasons, he originally planned to spend the most dangerous "midnight" period in the outer area of the Demon Prisoner Island, but he had to control the depth and allow enough time for return and retreat.
Moreover, after "midnight", he would have to go further to Demon Suppressing Peak again, which would waste at least one round trip time.
Even if you don't distract yourself from looking for the elixir, and without using the flying sword magic weapon that can easily reveal your identity, this round trip will probably take a day.
Time is profit. If you only have one day less time to collect herbs than others, your harvest will naturally be reduced accordingly.
If he is not a disciple of Wugou Peak, he can temporarily join the teams of other peaks. Unfortunately, other peaks will most likely not accept him to join.
Should we take risks to maximize profits or should we be cautious to be on the safe side?
After just hesitating for a while, He Gu decided to be cautious.
After all, life-saving is the most important thing.
However, this did not completely dispel his desire to collect more higher-quality elixirs.
He just realized that there was another factor that was important.
The number of elixirs on the island must be fixed.
If he is one day behind the progress of other disciples, then when he is close to the central area during the second safe activity period after "midnight", it is very likely that all the elixirs in front will be wiped out by the disciples who arrived first!
According to the development trend of visibility on the island, there are still about three days for him to make arrangements before "midnight" arrives.
How to use these three days to maximize profits became a question that he urgently needed to think about immediately.
He had two choices before him:
1. Act according to the original plan, give up most of the benefits in the second safety cycle, and follow other disciples to pick up the leaks by chance;
Second, abandon the low-level elixirs on the periphery and go straight to the central area. Take advantage of the two days when most of your fellow sects have not entered to collect as many high-level elixirs as possible, and then go straight back to the periphery to spend the "midnight" period.
However, if you choose the second option, you will face another danger.
Although most demons are active during the "midnight" period, this does not mean that demons cannot come out and be active at other times.
He checked the information before coming here and found that in the central area, especially near high-level elixirs, demons would often take risks to unearth activities at unfavorable times to stop the herb collectors.
After all, for the demons who are imprisoned on this island and have a naturally short lifespan, the various special effects produced by the elixir are extremely precious, and they are one of the few things that their lives depend on.
Furthermore, the closer you get to the Demon Suppressing Peak, the more abundant the aura of heaven and earth becomes, and the stronger the lurking demon becomes.
Demons themselves have the unique ability to directly call upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and their physical strength is much stronger than that of other races. It is no problem to defeat several of them.
It is said that there was a time in the past when a demon's cultivation reached the level of the Six Paths Realm, which caused great damage to the disciples who participated in the trial at that time.
It is precisely because of this that most disciples did not choose to be too aggressive and kept the same progress as other disciples.
A higher level of elixir also means that the number of existing elixirs decreases.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ordinary disciples have thought very clearly. Rather than risking more disciples and competing with powerful disciples for a small number of high-quality elixirs, it is better to
Try to harvest more low-grade elixirs in areas outside the center.
In the final analysis, whether it is qualifications for a seat in the Demon Blood Pond on the Demon Suppressing Peak or the high-grade elixir in the central area of the Demon Prison Island, the main competitors are outstanding disciples of Wu Zong who have reached the Five Realms.
The main competition location for ordinary disciples is in the area outside the center. By the way, in the later stage, they will follow the large troops into the central area to pick up the missing items.
Among the choices He Gu is facing now, the first option is quite satisfactory, while the second option is risky and comes with higher returns. If it doesn't work, he may lose his wife and lose his troops.
After some careful consideration, he speeded up his movements and headed straight for the central area.
He has never been a timid person. He is cautious when he should be cautious, and he will decisively choose to take risks when he should take risks to gain profits.
What drove him to make this choice was the life-saving trump card he carried: the ice crystal amulet.
And he also has another method that can help him at critical moments, although he didn't want to use it originally.
At the same time, people have begun to step into the edge of the mountain range in the central area of the Demon Prisoner Island.
Immediately afterwards, several groups of people appeared one after another from other directions, and they broke into the central area from different entrances.
The silent mountains with exposed sand and rocks everywhere became a little alive because of people's footsteps, and the creatures lurking underground gradually sensed the visit of foreign races.
The relationship between hunters and their prey is never static, and their bloodthirsty and thirsty hearts can't stop beating faster at this moment.
At the end of a deep, dark ravine at the foot of Demon-Suppressing Peak, a pair of turbid old eyes covered with scarlet bloodshot eyes suddenly opened suddenly, and light seemed to shoot out for an instant.
The rickety figure submerged in the darkness raised its head that had been covered with dust for a long time, and stared straight at the narrow sky glowing with the red light of magma.
"Hehehe...the taste of Qi and blood is so fresh and delicious, I miss it so much after such a long absence!"
"Huh? The aura of this formation is... hehe, interesting and interesting!"
…
The towering Zhenmo Peak towers into the sky like a prominent landmark, surrounded by a series of low mountains surrounding its feet.
After half a day, He Gu successfully reached one of the valley mouths on the outskirts of the mountain range.
No longer hesitating, he gathered his thoughts and walked in lightly.
