Immortal Mansion Longevity

Chapter 555 Golden Scale Fruit!
In sight, the Bibo Lake, which was tens of miles away, gradually shrunk, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Ahead, the majestic and undulating spiritual mountains gradually became taller and clearer.

Liu Yu and others continued to move towards the next difficulty.

The route formulated by the alliance is not an absolute straight line, and sometimes there will be a sharp turn to confuse the demon cultivators.

In this way, even if clues are found, it can be delayed for a while, and the intention will not be easily seen through.

……

Silt, filth, poisonous weeds.
Three days later, Liu Yu and the others came to a swamp area, which was the "Red Blood Swamp".

Looking around, they are all black swamps, and there are patches of poisonous weeds growing in many places.

If you accidentally fall into it, you will be mercilessly swallowed by the black mud!
The reason why the Red Blood Swamp is called the Red Blood Swamp is not because the swamp is red, but because of the monster race "Red Blood Crocodile" that lives in it.

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

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

When Liu Yu swept his consciousness, he found that the swamp was so vast that he couldn't reach the boundary with his consciousness.

God knows how many third-order 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 have passed is also small.

The number of those who passed Tianying Ridge reached double digits, while the number of those who passed Bibotan only reached single digits.

As for those who can pass through the Red Blood Swamp, among the five combined information, there are only three people.

However, there are also previous explorations, most of which were conducted privately by various sects and were not systematic.

After all, for any sect, the loss of a few Jindan monks in a row can be regarded as a traumatic injury.

Moreover, the only three people who passed were far apart in age, and the information may change a lot, and it may not be accurate.

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

I only know that this swamp is about two hundred miles away, and there are four or five third-level demon cultivators living in it.

As for the first- and second-tier red-blooded crocodiles, there were hundreds of them.

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

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

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

And those who didn't succeed would naturally be buried in the mouth of monsters and beasts, and no news could be sent back.

As for the area on the right, there is no clear record in the information given by the alliance, and it is not even known what kind of demon cultivator's territory it is.

The five of them watched from a distance, only seeing a forest with towering ancient trees. In the dark and dense forest, there seemed to be a fatal crisis hidden.

Compared with the unknown monsters 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, they don't know their habits at all, and they don't know whether they are more or less. Whether they are strong or not is also a question mark?
In contrast, it is safest to go down the path that has already had successful experience.

"how?"

After some exchanges, Liu Yu glanced at everyone and asked in a deep voice.

It has been a few months since they entered the Hengduan Mountains, and everyone looks a little dusty, no longer the "Jindan real person" style they used to be.

However, the look in his eyes did not weaken much.

"According to the information, apart from the group of red-blooded crocodiles, all the slightly higher-level monsters in the red-blooded swamp area have been hunted and killed."

"As for ordinary first-tier monsters, a few third-tier crocodiles don't look up to them, so they will go out to hunt once every once in a while."

"The old Taoist thought that it would be best for me to wait and pass in secret at that time."

Old Taoist Canglou spoke first.

This strategy can only be said to be the wisdom of the predecessors, and the three people who passed it all used this method.

"That's a good idea."

Zhuo Mengzhen nodded in agreement, Mu Yuyan had no objection, and Gao Jianhan didn't say a word.

Liu Yu thought for a while, then nodded slightly,

It is simple, but it is easy to use. It is indeed a simple and practical method.

According to the information collected by Wu Zong, as well as his own observations, the entire area of ​​the Red Blood Swamp is about two to three hundred miles away.

Similar to the situation in Bibotan, Liu Yu barely saw any second-order monsters in his cursory observation.

This also means that if a few third-tier monster crocodiles want to eat, they must leave this area temporarily.

However, the left and right sides are the territory of other monsters. According to the territorial awareness of monsters, under normal circumstances, they will not enter the territory of other monsters, unless they are determined to "re-divide the territory".

In this way, these demon cultivators can only go hunting in the direction where Liu Yu and the other five came.

After the five of them lowered their escape speed, the average speed was about [-] miles per hour.

The straight-line distance of flying for three days and three nights is almost as close as half a continent of Chu.

In such a vast land, there are countless groups of monsters and beasts living there. Even if the hunting is a bit brutal, there is no need to worry about insufficient rations.

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

Even the number of Tier [-] monsters is still on the rise.

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

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

Looking down from a high altitude, it happens to be an irregular straight line.

The gap between territories is extremely small, and there is almost no room for "exploiting loopholes", and it is more likely to be attacked by two sides.

And such a blockade line, there is one at a large distance, and the traces of the arrangement are very obvious.

Therefore, the monks sent by the Seven Kingdoms Alliance and the Orthodox and Demonic Paths 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 various angles, waiting for the opportunity to act.

……

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

Focusing on the direction of the red blood swamp, and sweeping over the low-level red blood crocodiles, Liu Yu thought about it.

At this time, 35 days have passed since the five people agreed on a plan.

It means that for a full 35 days or longer, several third-order red blood crocodiles did not go out once.

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

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

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

The red-blooded crocodiles of the first and second ranks are not much different from ordinary monster crocodiles except for their scarlet pupils.

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

The big mouth is fully opened, almost exceeding 180 degrees, and the bite force is amazing.

Although its limbs are short, they are strong enough to support the body so that it does not look bulky.

Those sharp claws are hard and sharp, and they are also comparable to magical weapons and spiritual weapons.

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

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

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

Different from the majesty and nobility of the innate ice dragon, Liu Yu only felt cruelty and bloodthirsty from these sudden auras.

Obviously, compared to the Ice Flood Dragon, it is not only the difference in blood, but also a big difference in rationality and wisdom.

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

"Finally can't hold back and want to go hunting?"

Liu Yu's heart skipped a beat.

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

At the same time, Liu Yu secretly restrained his consciousness and spread it forward as stealthily as possible.

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

Tier [-] Demon Cultivator!

The cultivation bases of the four third-order demon crocodiles vary from high to low. The highest one is in the late third-order stage, the lowest one is in the middle stage of third stage, and two of them are in the middle stage of third stage.

Where the ten-foot monster crocodile was located, the aura of coercion and brutal bloodthirsty spread, and the weak monster directly burrowed into the mud to avoid it, appearing extremely skilled.

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

The spiritual pressure and breath appeared and disappeared, and the four red-blooded crocodiles, more than ten feet long, flew away in the direction the five people came from, and disappeared for a long time.

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

Thanks to Mu Yunyan's spiritual warning and Zhuo Mengzhen's "green soul yarn" magic weapon to cover him, he was able to avoid the third-level demon cultivator he met on the way and not be discovered by him.

"It's not too late, I'll start here."

After estimating the scope of his demon consciousness, he felt that it was almost enough, so Liu Yuguo broke his mouth.

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 minutes.

Perhaps, it is because of the gluttony.

"As it should be."

Having already figured out the situation, several people are not hesitating.

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

As soon as the words fell, under the cover of the magic weapon "Green Soul Veil", the five of them rose into the air at the same time and formally entered the swamp area.

Mu Yunyan, who has the strongest spiritual sense, is in charge of observing the situation ahead.

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

As for Zhuo Mengzhen, he always mobilized the magic weapon's hidden team, and the division of labor between the five was very clear.

"Um~"

As soon as he entered the swamp area, there was a stench in his nostrils, and Liu Yu frowned suddenly.

This stench was mixed with the smell of rotting corpses, the excrement of various monsters, and the smell of the mud itself.

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

But for some "heavy tastes", it is just right
There are so many stenches mixed together that a normal mortal would fall down if he smelled it.

But for Jindan monks, it was just a little uncomfortable, and it didn't affect him.

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 to monks.

However, the five people's movements were not slow, flying along the edge of the swamp, and without any low-level monsters noticing, it took only half an hour to pass the center.

"Whoo~"

Seeing that nothing happened, and the trip should be relatively smooth, Zhuo Mengzhen let out a breath of foul air.

But in this breath, she felt a strange fragrance from the unpleasant stench.

Judging from Zhuo Mengzhen's many years of cultivation experience, it must be a very high-level spirit grass and elixir that can emit this strange fragrance, at least level three or above.

"A high-level elixir!"

As soon as this thought flashed through, the woman instinctively let go of 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 feet high with many branches.

The vicissitudes and ancient branches of this tree are all pale gold, with a hint of green.

And the countless leaves are all pure pale gold, reflecting shimmer under the brilliance, like worldly precious gold.

But what Zhuo Meng really cared about the most was the three citrus-sized fruits on the branch, with skins like fish scales and pale gold in color.

Golden scale fruit!
The moment Zhuo Mengzhen saw this fruit, his heart was agitated, and his breath could not help but fluctuate.

According to the level of spiritual items, this fruit is as high as the third-level best.

Golden Core cultivators only need to take one, and after a certain amount of tempering within a period of time, the physical strength will be improved immediately, and quickly meet the minimum requirements for condensing Nascent Soul.

It saves a lot of body tempering effort, and has more time to prepare for the condensed Nascent Soul, which can be called the "holy medicine for refining the body" of the Jindan realm.

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

The most exciting thing for Golden Core monks is that this fruit can make the monk's body continue to rejuvenate.

Although it cannot prolong life, it can delay the golden time of Jindan monks condensing Nascent Soul for another 100 years.

Borrow another 100 years from the sky!

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

After condensing, it can effectively reduce the passage of the three, so that while the longevity is greatly increased, the golden time can also be maintained longer.

Calculated according to the average lifespan of 650 years, before the age of [-] is the golden time to condense the Nascent Soul. After the age of [-], the essence of the body will gradually weaken, making the probability of condensing the Nascent Soul gradually decrease.

Although the golden time of 500 years is already unimaginable for ordinary people.

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

Those who are willing to attack the Nascent Soul only hate that time is not enough, and time is not forgiving!
And Jinlin Fruit can rejuvenate the body, extend the "golden time" for 100 years, and borrow another 100 years from the sky!

This kind of rare spiritual fruit of the third-order top grade is a spiritual object that many Jindan monks 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 the Infant".

"not good!"

Liu Yu's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately noticed Zhuo Mengzhen's abnormal situation and his chaotic breath fluctuations.

A little worried, this fluctuation was noticed by the demon cultivator.
