The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Everyone thought that the compass was pointing behind the ancient tree.

When I went around the ancient tree and was about to move forward, the magic needle on the compass pointed behind me again.

Only then did they know where the man was hiding.

Looking back at the ordinary ancient tree, everyone raised their heads and looked towards the treetops tacitly.

But still nothing abnormal was found, but the compass cannot be wrong.

Just when everyone was planning to escape to the treetops to find out what was going on, the magic power they were circulating suddenly stopped, and there was no response when they tried to mobilize the magic power in their dantian again.

Upon seeing this situation, everyone looked at the people around them, intending to inform them of their own situation.

But now everyone looked embarrassed. They understood that at this moment everyone had been tricked without knowing it.

Without saying a word, the brothers exchanged glances and then took action, intending to escape from the ancient tree in front of them. However, just as they took a step, their legs suddenly became weak, and they stumbled, and all seven of them fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, their bodies and magical powers seemed to have lost all contact with them, and they could not sense anything at all. Only their spiritual consciousness could move.

Song Zhixian immediately used his spiritual sense to feel the situation of the fellow disciples around him. They were all exactly the same. He immediately sent a message to the six of them:

"Use your divine thoughts to activate the communication talisman and notify Master!"

Fearing that the enemies in the tree canopy would intercept the communication talisman, Song Zhixian planned to have everyone activate the communication talisman together. As long as one talisman was successfully transmitted, they would be saved.

The seven people used their spiritual consciousness to activate the storage bag, took out a talisman from it, and then activated it directly using their spiritual consciousness.

Seven rays of light appeared and in the blink of an eye they flew into the sky and disappeared.

However, Song Zhixian's spiritual sense did not show any scene of cultivators intercepting the communication talisman, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.

A feeling of uneasiness arose again, and he could only pray that his master would come to rescue him quickly.

Otherwise, the seven of them would really be wiped out.

Time passed by little by little. During this time, no one communicated with each other. Everyone used their spiritual sense to closely sense any movement around them.

Song Zhixian was thinking about the intention of the last enemy.

"We have all been poisoned and fallen to the ground, why haven't you appeared yet?"

"Could it be that he knew that the Master was not far away? So he escaped?"

Unable to move, various speculations began to emerge in Song Zhixian's mind, and only the speculation that the enemy might have escaped was relatively reliable.

Unfortunately, he had no power to use the compass to confirm his guess at this moment.

After a long time, everyone still hadn't seen the Master arrive, and they were already feeling uneasy.

Song Zhixian had no choice but to send messages to comfort his fellow disciples who were in a state of anxiety.

He was actually very frightened in his heart, but as the eldest brother, he must not show it.

Now he is the backbone of the group.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was extremely difficult for all seven of them during the process.

Time also seemed to slow down.

If the sky hadn't been darkening, they wouldn't have known how much time had passed. The waiting without seeing time was the most difficult thing to endure.

Despite this, the master who was nearby still did not show up, and they were completely panicked.

Over the sky.

Luo Xingzi looked at the fear in his disciples' eyes and sighed in his heart.

He protected his disciples too well, and they lacked the composure when faced with major events.

At this moment they might not even know how they were poisoned, so he wasn't going to help them.

His life span is coming to an end now, and this experience may benefit them for the rest of their lives.

In the world of cultivating immortals, life is the most important thing.

Such a strong physical cultivator chose to play dead without any resistance, and there were no wounds on his body. The disciples rushed forward without investigating clearly.

If he is not around in the future, I can't imagine how many of my disciples will be able to survive in this cruel world of cultivating immortals.

As time passed, it was midnight.

It was pitch black all around.

Under the reflection of the night, the world became silent, and the occasional roars of beasts became particularly clear.

Although they were in the Wanshou Mountain Range, which was filled with monsters, fortunately the spirit stones in the formation had not been exhausted. With the formation protecting them, no monsters could break in.

Otherwise, they might die before they even face the last person.

As time passed, everyone calmed down.

Everyone began to think about what happened during the day.

How did the poisoning happen?

Carefully pondering the details, without too much thought, the strange body cultivation immediately emerged in my mind.

As they communicated with their spiritual consciousness, they all immediately confirmed that the physical cultivator had been poisoned and had no choice but to fake his death to escape.

The reason they were poisoned might be that the poisonous gas around the body cultivator had not dissipated yet, and they happened to be close to it and inhaled it into their bodies.

The logic is reasonable, but who poisoned him?

Everyone thought of the ancient tree beside them, and an idea suddenly came to their minds.

Could it be that the last person still alive was also poisoned and that’s why he didn’t show up at this moment?

After figuring this out, everyone suddenly understood.

Song Zhixian also felt a little relieved. If this was the case, he wouldn't have to feel guilty for not being able to protect his six fellow apprentices.

……

time flies.

The next day.

The sun was high overhead, and the seven people slowly regained awareness of their bodies.

The magic power is no longer stagnant and the Dantian is unsealed.

After feeling the change, everyone adjusted themselves to it, then stood up with lingering fears, and immediately became alert to their surroundings.

Now that the poison has been removed, everyone has guessed that this is a drug that can only make people lose their ability to move, but will not cause death.

They will never forget this long day and night.

"Big Brother, has something happened to our Master? Why can't we see our Master after we activated the communication talisman?" Everyone asked Song Zhixian.

After the seven people got rid of the toxin, the first person they cared about was their master who had lost contact.

If their master were in danger, they would have to run for their lives and would not have time to worry about the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit.

Just as Song Zhixian was about to leave to find his master, a divine thought came into his mind:

"Zhixian, your master is watching over you. This is a test for you. The path of cultivation is full of all kinds of insidious and vicious traps. I hope you can learn from this experience."

"Just tell everyone that the Master has something that will take a few days to deal with."

Hearing the familiar voice, Song Zhixian finally let go of his worries and said calmly:

"Don't panic, fellow disciples. Master told me long before we set out that he needed to take care of some things and would be away for a few days. He asked you to use the communication talisman last night just to make the people in the dark afraid to act rashly."

"After this poisoning, fellow apprentices, please be vigilant at all times. You may not be so lucky next time."

"That person hasn't shown up all night, maybe he has also been poisoned. Now we have to find him and kill him so that we can feel at ease."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and restrained their playful thoughts, as they were still frightened by the poisoning experience.

Seeing that he had stabilized his fellow disciples, Song Zhixian immediately summoned the Star Compass that had fallen at his feet, and cast a spell, intending to look for the last Tribulation Cultivator again.
