Chapter 78: Initial Entry, Tai Xuan and Tai Su
A red and white swirling teleportation array suddenly obscured Wang Chen's eyes.
When I looked again, the surroundings had become dense mountain forests, and in the distance, there were faintly audible the mysterious howls of beasts.
Farther away, the mist-shrouded mountains can be vaguely seen, like a fairyland, and it is hard to help but produce a quiet and peaceful feeling.
Even in the sky above, a bright moon and a sun were hanging, incredibly extraordinary. If it were before, Wang Chen would definitely be stunned, but since he had seen even more incredible scenes when the Dragon's Gorge was opened previously, his heart was actually much calmer now!
It's no big deal!
But Wang Chen seemed to have seen something far away, as if there was something wrong!
Looking closer, a group of rhinos with flapping hooves stared at Wang Chen, who wiped the sweat from his forehead and suddenly sprinted out of the herd like an arrow off the string.
This was a disaster for the cow under Wang Chen's feet. It was originally sleeping soundly, but unexpectedly it was trampled on and to make matters worse, it was left with a hoof print as it departed.
Wang Chen's strength was nearly 100,000 jin. With one kick, even a rhinoceros that excelled in strength would fall to the ground with a thud, foaming at the mouth and losing consciousness. It seemed that even if it didn't die, it would still suffer severe injuries!
Ahh! Ahh! Ahh!
The rhino herd let out a loud roar and then actually chased after Wang Chen, as if determined to chase him to the death!
Knock knock knock.....!
Just like the mighty army of thousands of horses galloping in the mortal world, this herd of rhinos was even more powerful. After all, each rhino weighed tens of thousands of kilograms and had a strength of tens of thousands of kilograms. When they stepped on the ground with their four feet, the sound was simply earth-shaking, echoing for thousands of kilometers!
To say that each rhino is not very threatening, but with dozens of them together, even a foundation period cultivator would have to bring out their sharp edges, otherwise they would be overwhelmed by the herd after killing one!
Dozens of rhinos trampled over at once, even a freak physique like Wang Chen's couldn't withstand it, ordinary cultivators would be directly trampled into meat patties!
"What bad luck! Run, hurry up and run, otherwise with so many rhinoceros-like monsters, even if we kill them all, we'll still get hurt. There are too many battles in the Dragon's Descent Valley, it won't be good to get hurt like this!"
Wang Chen thought to himself, and under his feet a faint sword shadow flashed, vaguely between the small sword actually became more solid, speed also increased a lot, figure suddenly became fleeting, in an instant actually pulled open a hundred meters distance!
Finally, Wang Chen's figure disappeared from the rhino's sight. The leading rhino let out a loud roar towards the sky and stomped its four hooves on the ground. The rhinos behind it also followed with incessant roars.
Afterwards, the leading rhinoceros turned around and surprisingly the whole group of rhinos retreated.
"Ugh, managed to avoid a fight after all. But those spiritual medicines in the rhino group aren't low-grade at all! If there weren't better options, I'd have to give them a try!"
Wang Chen let out a breath and pondered in his heart!
Outside the Dragon's Descent Valley, there are many spiritual medicines in the valley. Whether it's the age or type, they're all enough to make Golden Elixir Cultivators and even Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators jealous. If a cultivator can get some out, getting one or two Foundation Establishment Pills is no problem at all!
However, these spiritual medicines were all harvested by demonic beasts. Some of them were Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts, while others were the Qi Refining stage pack demonic beasts that Wang Chen had encountered.
Each has its own merits, and neither is easy.
The demonic beast of the foundation period is not comparable to a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, whether it's attacking, defending or speed. Even the elite cultivators from the three major sects can only barely escape with their lives!
Herds of demonic beasts are even more troublesome, and a group of Qi Refining cultivators coming together is undoubtedly doomed. However, there are other methods, such as the rhinoceros herd that Wang Chen encountered, where if one person lures the demonic beast away, another person can obtain the spiritual medicine.
Two people working together can build a solid foundation, but how many monks are willing to take the risk of luring away the monster and letting others collect the spiritual medicine?
However, there are other ways to obtain Tektite besides this.
For example, in the Dragon's Descent Valley, there are some dangerous places where various rare minerals are hidden, and even in smaller palaces, there are items such as Jade Sutras that summarize meritorious deeds, cultivation experiences, and introductions to formations.
These ancient items are all extremely valuable and can be exchanged for a certain amount of foundation dan outside.
However, in comparison, elixirs are still the primary method because there are many elixirs and they don't rely on mysterious and unpredictable opportunities like other methods do.
Wang Chen's mind was not on the foundation-building pill, so he didn't care about the spiritual medicine.
But considering future cultivation, if some can be obtained, it will still be helpful for cultivation!
The Five Elements' Qi is Wang Chen's goal, located in the northwest part, near the ape-like demonic beast. This was accidentally discovered by a medieval cultivator, although later generations of cultivators also went to search for it, but none returned!
The Dragon Valley is directionless. The monks have a convention that the direction of the sun is north and the direction of the moon is south!
Having determined the direction, Wang Chen began to move forward. The time for opening the Dragon's Gorge was only ten days, and Wang Chen didn't have much time to dawdle. After all, there were too many benefits inside the valley. Within five days, Wang Chen had to obtain the primordial Five Elements' aura, and then enter the inner valley to see if he could gain anything!
On the other side, a group of large black birds surrounded Gao Xuan Ye. The group of big birds were all pitch-black, with only their yellow claws looking exceptionally sharp.
"How detestable! It's just a few stalks of spiritual medicine that were taken away. How troublesome indeed!"
The unrelenting anger in his heart, the outer shield was somewhat unstable under the Black Bird's attack. Having no choice, Gao Xuan Ye once again employed a secret technique.
But this time the effect is quite different from last time.
The mysterious airflow did not repel the enemy, but simply released it, and the large black bird could not help but tremble, and its body shape was unstable in the air.
After several strange cries, the black bird disappeared!
"Tai Xuan's aura has such a wonderful use! Heh heh, I didn't know that before since I hadn't hunted and killed any demonic beasts. From now on, I'll have to try it out more often!"
In another place, Gao Xuan Ye and others who had come through the mysterious cultivator raised a ring-shaped magic artifact.
It's said to be a law enforcement tool, but it doesn't quite live up to that, because on its surface, it actually emits some spiritual light, similar to the legendary spiritual tools, except that aside from the spiritual light, there is also a hint of demonic energy within.
Under this "spiritual instrument", a small and extremely cute ermine was struggling to break through the light mask formed by the spiritual instrument.
"Listen up, Xiaotiao. From now on, following me will ensure you live comfortably and eat to your heart's content. Every day, I'll assign a few Yuan Ying period disciples to serve you. How does that sound?"
"Don't be angry anymore, just accept it!"
…..
The young man coaxed the lovely sable like a child, obviously wanting to tame it, but the sable disagreed. Interestingly, the young man didn't use forceful methods, either because he didn't want to or for some reason couldn't!
At last, after half a day had passed, Xiao Diao still looked sulky and refused to talk to the young man.
The young man's face turned red:
"I really can't believe it. I'm a genius swordsman from Elemental Mountain, and at such a young age, I've already grasped the essence of swordsmanship. And yet, I still can't subdue even a small fox spirit!"
However, the young man named Yuanshan was muttering to himself at this time, but it seemed a bit too natural. After all, he also knew that the small Liang Kingdom actually had two geniuses who understood the sword intent, and this little fox was not an ordinary one either.
Otherwise, how can young people collect them with their hearts?
The young man made up his mind and his hands moved swiftly, forming a mysterious seal. After a long time, when sweat broke out on his forehead, a strange aura actually appeared in the young man's hand.
This air flow also carries a breath of the beginning of heaven and earth, but it is not quite the same as the "Tai Xuan Qi" in Gao Xuan Ye's mouth.
As the mysterious air current appeared, Xiao Diao curiously stared at the young man, even revealing a thoughtful expression. After a while, Xiao Diao bit his own small paw and muttered indistinctly.
Then a few drops of Xiao Die's fresh blood actually penetrated through the light shield of the "Ling Qi", seeping into the front of Yuan Suo Mountain, and directly penetrating into Yuan Suo Mountain's body.
"Haha! It actually worked, great!"
