Immortal Palace Longevity

In the sight, the Bi Bo Lake of dozens of miles gradually shrank, and finally disappeared, and no trace of it could be seen.

In front of them, the towering and undulating sacred mountains gradually became taller and clearer.

Liu Yu and others continued to move forward towards the next difficult hurdle.

The route set by the alliance was not an absolute straight line, and sometimes there would be large turns to confuse the demon cultivators.

In this way, even if clues were discovered, they could be delayed for a while, and their intentions would not be easily seen through.

…

Mud, filth, and poisonous weeds.

Three days later, Liu Yu and his five companions came to a swamp area, which was the "Red Blood Swamp".

Looking around, it was all black swamps, and many places were covered with poisonous weeds.

If you accidentally get caught in it, you will be swallowed up by the black silt!

The reason why the Red Blood Swamp is called the Red Blood Swamp is not because the swamp is red, but because it is named after the demon beast race "Red Blood Crocodile" living in it.

The pupils of this demon crocodile are scarlet, just like human blood, and it can also spit out venom, so it is called "red blood crocodile" by cultivators.

The five people were suspended in the air, and did not rashly enter the swamp area, but prepared to observe it first.

Liu Yu swept his spiritual sense and found that this swamp was extremely wide. Even with his spiritual sense range, he could not find the boundary.

God knows how many third-level demon cultivators are hidden in it.

The specific information given by the alliance is the most detailed in the first three levels, but the number of people who passed through is also not large.

The number of people who passed through Tianying Ridge reached double digits, and the number of people who passed through Bi Bo Tan was only single digits.

And the number of people who can pass through the red blood swamp, out of the information of the five sects combined, is only three people.

However, there are also previous explorations, which are mostly carried out privately by major sects and are not systematic.

After all, for any sect, the continuous loss of several Jindan cultivators is considered a serious injury.

And the only three people who passed through are far apart in age, and the information may change, which may not be accurate.

Therefore, the knowledge of the Red Blood Swamp is the least among the first three levels.

It is only known that this swamp is about 200 miles in scope, and there are four or five third-level demon cultivators living in it.

As for the first-level and second-level red blood crocodile tribes, there are as many as hundreds of them.

Not far from the Red Blood Swamp, the five people watched and communicated.

Through the information of the five sects, Liu Yu learned that the area on the left side of the Red Blood Swamp is called "Black Water Lake", and the demon cultivators living in it are unknown.

The cultivators who successfully passed through this area all chose the Red Blood Swamp as a breakthrough point.

And those who did not succeed naturally died in the mouth of the demon beast and could not send back any information.

As for the area on the right, there is no clear record in the information given by the alliance, and it is even unknown what kind of demon cultivator's territory it is.

The five people watched from afar and saw only a forest with towering ancient trees. In the dark and dense forest, there seemed to be a deadly crisis hidden.

Compared with the unknown demon beasts on the left and right sides, the Red Blood Swamp area is undoubtedly safer, and there are successful experiences to learn from.

As for the unknown demon cultivators, their habits are unknown, and we don’t know how many there are. Whether they are strong or not is also a question mark.

In contrast, it is safest to follow the path that has been successfully experienced.

“How?”

After a conversation, Liu Yu swept his eyes over the crowd and asked in a deep voice.

It has been several months since they entered the Hengduan Mountains. Everyone looks a little dusty and no longer has the style of the “Jindan Zhenren”.

However, the spirit in his eyes has not diminished much.

“According to the information, except for the red blood crocodile tribe, the slightly higher-level demon beasts in the red blood swamp area have been hunted down.”

“And ordinary first-level demon beasts are not favored by several third-level demon crocodiles, so they will go out hunting once every period of time.”

“The old Taoist thinks that it is best for us to pass through secretly at that time.”

The old Taoist Canglou said first.

This strategy can only be said to be a copy of the predecessors. The three people who passed all used this method.

"This plan is good." Zhuo Mengzhen nodded in agreement, Mu Yuyan had no objection, and Gao Jianhan said nothing. Liu Yu thought about it and nodded slightly. It was simple, but it was very useful. It was indeed a simple and practical method. According to the information collected by the five sects and his own observations, the entire Red Blood Swamp area was about two or three hundred miles. As with the situation in the Blue Botan Lake, Liu Yu saw almost no shadow of the second-level monsters in a rough observation. This also means that if several third-level monster crocodiles want to eat, they must temporarily leave this area. But on the left and right sides are the territories of other monsters. According to the territorial awareness of monsters, they generally will not enter the territories of other monsters unless they are determined to "redivide the territory." In this way, these monster cultivators can only go in the direction where Liu Yu and the other five came to hunt. After the five people lowered their speed, the average speed was about 1,300 miles per hour. The straight-line distance of three days and three nights of flight is almost close to one and a half continents of Chu. There are countless monster tribes living in such a vast land. Even if you hunt them savagely, you don't have to worry about not having enough food.

After all, the base number of low-level monsters is there, and it is easy to maintain a balance.

Even the number of second-level monsters is still on the rise.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many cannon fodder to launch a beast tide offensive.

However, the location of the territory of the third-level demon cultivator seemed to be deliberately arranged, just stuck in the place leading to the depths of the Hengduan Mountains.

Looking down from the sky, it just formed an irregular straight line.

The gap between the territories was very small, and there was almost no room for "taking advantage of loopholes". It was more likely to be attacked from both sides.

And there was such a blockade line every long distance, and the traces of arrangement were very obvious.

Therefore, the cultivators sent by the Seven Nations Alliance and the two paths of good and evil could only find a way to break through the blockades.

The five people reached a consensus and scattered in the forest, observing the red blood swamp from all angles, waiting for the opportunity to act.

…

"Compared to the four ice dragons, this red blood crocodile seems to be more "enduring hunger."

Liu Yu flashed this thought as he looked at the direction of the red blood swamp and swept over the low-level red blood crocodiles.

At this time, thirty-five days had passed since the five people agreed on the plan.

This means that for a full thirty-five days or longer, several third-level red-blood crocodiles did not go out once.

Although after reaching the third level, demon cultivators can directly absorb spiritual energy to maintain their bodies just like cultivators.

But because of the habits of demon beasts, it is generally difficult to refuse blood food.

Moreover, blood food is like a panacea for cultivators, which can speed up the improvement of cultivation. Few demon cultivators can refuse the temptation of blood food.

The first- and second-level red-blood crocodiles are not much different from ordinary demon crocodiles except for the scarlet pupils.

They all have thick skin like black inkstone, which can provide good defense.

The big mouth opens with full force, almost exceeding 180 degrees, and the bite force is amazing.

Although its limbs are short, they are enough to support the body, making it not bulky.

The pair of sharp claws are hard and sharp, comparable to magic weapons and spiritual weapons.

After waiting for more than a month, Liu Yu still has enough patience.

Patience is an indispensable quality for a mature and excellent hunter.

Just as he was thinking, several third-level spiritual pressures suddenly emerged from the depths of the swamp.

Unlike the majesty and nobility of the innate ice dragon, Liu Yu only felt brutality and bloodthirstiness from these suddenly appearing auras.

Obviously, compared with the ice dragon, it is not only the difference in bloodline, but also a big gap in rationality and wisdom.

However, being able to be arranged on the blockade line is already an elite among the thousands of monsters, and its bloodline has also reached the level of spiritual monsters.

"Can't you finally hold back and go out hunting?"

Liu Yu's heart moved.

At this time, Mu Yunyan's spiritual message just came, and he immediately nodded slightly to indicate that he knew, and the expressions of the five people instantly became extremely solemn.

At the same time, Liu Yu secretly gathered his spiritual sense and spread it forward as secretly as possible.

After only a few breaths, four red-blooded crocodiles with a body size of more than ten feet, blood-red pupils, dark scales, and ferocious looks appeared within the range of spiritual sense.

Third-level demon cultivator!

The four third-level demon crocodiles had different levels of cultivation. The highest one was in the late third level, the lowest one was in the middle third level, and two of them were in the middle third level.

Where the ten-zhang demon crocodile was, the pressure and brutal bloodthirstiness spread, and the weak demon beasts directly burrowed into the mud to avoid it, which seemed very skilled.

And those first-level and second-level red-blood crocodiles shook their tails and lowered their heads to show their submission.

The spiritual pressure and breath appeared and disappeared, and the four red-blood crocodiles with a body length of more than ten zhang flew in the direction where the five people came, and disappeared for a long time.

This made the few people who were secretly observing secretly sweat.

Fortunately, with Mu Yunyan's spiritual awareness warning and Zhuo Mengzhen's "Green Soul Veil" magic weapon covering, they were able to avoid the third-level demon cultivators they met on the way and were not discovered by them.

"There is no time to lose, let's set off now."

After estimating the coverage of his demon consciousness and feeling that it was almost done, Liu Yu spoke decisively.

According to the data, the hunting time of the red blood crocodile is slightly longer than that of the ice dragon, reaching two and a half quarters of an hour.

Perhaps, it is because it is more greedy.

"That's why."

Having figured out the situation, several people are no longer hesitant.

With the experience of breaking through the blockade twice before, several people have now built up a certain degree of confidence, and their style of action is more decisive.

As soon as the voice fell, with the cover of the magic weapon "Green Soul Veil", the five people took off at the same time and officially entered the swamp.

Mu Yunyan, who has the strongest spiritual sense, is responsible for observing the situation in front.

Liu Yu, Canglou Laodao, and Gao Jianhan are responsible for observing the situation behind and on the left and right.

As for Zhuo Mengzhen, he always uses the magic weapon to conceal the team, and the division of labor among the five people is very clear.

"Uh~"

As soon as he entered the swamp, a foul smell entered his nose, and Liu Yu frowned immediately.

This stench is mixed with the smell of rotting corpses, the smell of various monster excrement, and the smell of silt itself.

Just like silk stockings that haven't been washed for a year, no matter what color they were originally, they will turn into "black silk" and smell extremely bad.

But for some "heavy tastes", it's just the right degree

The heavy smells are mixed together, and ordinary mortals will probably fall down after smelling it.

But for Jindan cultivators, it's just a little uncomfortable, and it doesn't have much effect on themselves.

Liu Yu held his breath, and the unpleasant smell disappeared immediately. With his current physique, holding his breath for a few days is not a problem.

His eyes swept across the swamp, and all he could see were dirty mud and various monsters that were ugly in appearance to cultivators.

However, the five people were not slow. They flew along the edge of the swamp. Without any low-level monsters noticing, they were about to pass the center in just half a quarter of an hour.

"Huh~"

Seeing that nothing had happened, this trip should be relatively smooth, Zhuo Mengzhen gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.

But during this breath, she felt a wisp of strange fragrance from the unpleasant stench.

Judging from Zhuo Mengzhen's years of experience in cultivation, the one who could emit such a strange fragrance must be a very high-level spiritual herb or medicine, at least level three or above.

"High-level spiritual medicine!"

After this thought flashed through her mind, the woman instinctively released her consciousness and swept towards the center of the swamp where the strange fragrance came from.

In an instant, she saw an ancient tree about five meters tall with many branches.

The ancient trunk and branches of this tree were all light gold, with a hint of green.

And countless leaves were pure light gold, reflecting a faint light under the light, just like precious gold in the secular world.

However, what Zhuo Mengzhen cares about most are the three orange-sized fruits on the branches, with fish-scale-like skin and pale golden color.

Golden scale fruit!

The moment he saw this fruit, Zhuo Mengzhen's heart was moved, and his breath could not help but fluctuate.

According to the classification of spiritual items, this fruit is as high as the third-grade top-grade.

Jindan cultivators only need to take one and temper it within a period of time, and the strength of the physical body can be improved immediately, quickly reaching the minimum requirements for condensing the Nascent Soul.

It saves a lot of tempering work and has more time to prepare for the condensation of the Nascent Soul. It can be called the "body-refining holy medicine" of the Jindan realm.

However, tempering the body is only one of the effects of the golden scale fruit, and it is not the most important one.

What makes Jindan cultivators most excited is that this fruit can make the cultivator's physical body continue to rejuvenate.

Although it cannot prolong life, it can postpone the golden time for Jindan cultivators to condense the Nascent Soul by another hundred years.

Borrow another hundred years from heaven!

The nature of gold is immortal, and the golden elixir of a cultivator is closely related to his spirit, energy and spirit.

After condensation, it can effectively reduce the loss of the three, greatly increase the life span, and maintain the golden time longer.

According to the average life span of 650 years, the golden time for condensing the Nascent Soul is before 500 years old. After 500 years old, the physical essence will slowly weaken, causing the probability of condensing the Nascent Soul to slowly decrease.

Although 500 years of golden time is unimaginable for ordinary mortals.

But compared with the huge amount of mana that needs to be accumulated in the Golden Core Realm, it is still not enough.

Those who are determined to impact the Nascent Soul only hate that time is not enough, and time is unforgiving!

And the Golden Scale Fruit can rejuvenate the physical body, extend the "golden time" for a hundred years, and borrow another hundred years from heaven!

This rare and precious third-grade spiritual fruit is a spiritual object that many Golden Core cultivators dream of, and its value is difficult to measure with spiritual stones.

For some people who are determined to break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul, the value is even greater than the "Three Treasures of Nascent Soul Formation".

"Not good!"

Liu Yu's face changed slightly, and he instantly noticed Zhuo Mengzhen's abnormal situation and the chaotic fluctuations of his aura.

He was a little worried that this fluctuation would be noticed by the demon cultivator.
