Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Chapter 115: Cave True or False (Thanks to Old Dragon Nine for the 100 coin reward)

Taihang Mountains, Five Poison Peak, located on the shady side of the Taihang Mountains.

It features many low hills, numerous poisonous pools, and a persistent miasma.

Several black wood ants emerged from the jungle, one landing on a shrub, and another on a tree root.

Then they flew into the air, emitting faint, almost imperceptible chirps.

Soon, more black wood ants flew out, heading forward.

At this moment, several faint footsteps sounded, and five figures wearing spirit-isolating robes appeared.

The leading spirit-isolating robe cultivator was Ye Xingyu, followed by Ye Xingqun, then Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingli.

Finally, there was Ye Jingteng.

The five-person formation was a standard exploration and hunting formation, with the two highest cultivation levels at the front and rear, responsible for monitoring, and the slightly weaker ones in the middle.

"No problem nearby, most of the poisonous insects and snakes are nocturnal!" Ye Xingqun said.

After speaking, all five looked forward, and saw a small mountain peak in the poisonous miasma that stood out from the surrounding area.

Compared to Lingyun Peak and other peaks, this small mountain peak seemed much smaller, but in this area, it was the highest.

Moreover, the poisonous miasma on this mountain peak was a mixture of red, green, and black, which was quite strange.

This was precisely the characteristic of Five Poison Peak, which was also known as Three-Color Peak, but the poisonous insects on this mountain were more famous and more memorable than the three-colored poisonous miasma.

"Let's rest for a while, we'll enter Five Poison Peak later. Also, when we enter the mountain, activate the bracelets in your hands. They can activate a poison-resistant spirit shield. Although the defense isn't very strong, it can ensure that we are not affected by the poisonous miasma!" Ye Xingyu said.

Ye Xingqun also nodded. Constantly using spirit insects to explore the path was extremely draining, especially in this miasma, where even ordinary miasma greatly affected spiritual sense.

"Uncle Xingyu, Uncle Xingqun, Big Brother, these are detoxifying pills and Ice Purity Pills. The combination of the two should keep us safe for three or four hours!" Ye Jingcheng stepped forward at this moment, taking out eight pill bottles, each containing two pills.

After giving two pill bottles to each person, he retreated to the side. This time, he released the Jade Ring Rat, whose hearing was amazing. Entering Five Poison Peak, relying solely on the black wood ants was not safe enough.

"Jingcheng, your Jade Ring Rat is quite peculiar!" Ye Xingqun said, looking at the Jade Ring Rat with admiration.

He couldn't help but take a few more glances at Ye Jingcheng.

Of course, besides Ye Xingqun, Ye Xingyu and Ye Jingli also took a few more glances, with expressions of puzzlement in their eyes.

After all, Ye Jingcheng had raised two spirit beasts with great potential, and this third Jade Ring Rat was also raised so well.

"Jingteng, what is the item that the Taiyi Sect wants you to find?" Ye Xingyu asked Ye Jingteng.

This time, the Ye family had two goals: one was to find the spirit eggs of the Five Poison Bees, and the other was for Ye Jingteng's sect mission.

This was also the family's intention. Now that Ye Jingteng had become a disciple of Taihao Shangren of Taiyi Illusion Peak, if he could establish a foundation, he would at least have a presentable informant in the sect.

"Uncle Xingyu, my sect mission this time is to find a first-order, top-grade Purple Poison Bramble!"

"Ideally, it should be around a hundred years old!" Ye Jingteng said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingqun and Ye Xingyu couldn't help but frown.

This Purple Poison Bramble was said to be a first-order, top-grade spiritual plant, but it was no different from a first-order, top-grade demon beast. It could attack cultivators, and being stung by it would cause illusions.

If one's cultivation was low and they couldn't break free, they would even be strangled to death.

"Well, no one should be competing with you for this task!" Ye Xingyu said.

After the few people rested for a while, the five of them headed towards Five Poison Peak again!

Along the way, Ye Xingqun would occasionally share some hunting experience and precautions on the Poison Peak.

After all, he had been here and obtained the black wood ants here.

The others asked and answered.

On the contrary, no one mentioned the Five Poison Venerable's cave.

Ye Jingteng's previous statement was a gamble based on a guess, and later everyone helped because they wanted to help Ye Jingteng gain a foothold in the sect, and secondly, the many spiritual items that Ye Jingteng exchanged played a huge role.

Otherwise, Ye Jingcheng would not have come.

Even though they could see the appearance of Five Poison Peak from afar, when they arrived at the foot of Five Poison Peak, everyone frowned. The thick miasma only allowed them to see three zhang away at most. Their spiritual sense could reach a little further, but only about five zhang. Any further, and it was thick miasma, which was frustrating to look at.

Ye Jingteng and Ye Jingli also activated their magical instruments at this time.

Just as they were about to walk forward, they saw Ye Xingyu and Ye Jingcheng take out a formation plate together.

The two uncles and nephews immediately smiled at each other.

"Mine is a killing formation, to be set up in front!" Ye Xingyu said, and began to set it up one by one.

"Good, mine is a trapping formation!" Ye Jingcheng nodded, and also began to set it up.

Ye Xingqun couldn't help but take another look at Ye Jingcheng, and was even more satisfied with Ye Jingcheng.

Compared to Ye Jingcheng, Ye Jingteng and Ye Jingli seemed to be sightseeing.

Both formations were set up, only the final activation flag was needed.

Ye Jingcheng even asked Ye Xingyu to help check it. Ye Xingyu and Ye Xingqun had much more experience than him. Sometimes when he heard something good, he would record it with a jade slip.

After all, cultivation could be obtained step by step, but this kind of experience sometimes had to be exchanged for life.

Finally, with the formation completely set up, the five people once again maintained their previous formation and headed towards the top of the mountain.

Five magical instruments were activated, turning into five spirit shields, enclosing the five people and several spirit beasts.

On the spirit shield, there was a sizzling sound of corrosion.

Obviously, the poisonous miasma could even corrode the spirit shield.

Fortunately, this magical instrument jade ring could be used to stimulate spiritual energy at any time to strengthen the spirit shield.

The waxing and waning could ensure the stability of the spirit shield, but it consumed some spiritual power.

Among the spirit beasts, Ye Xingyu released a Green-Striped Leopard, which was also at the late stage of the first order.

Ye Xingqun took out a Golden-Armored Pangolin.

As for Ye Jingli, he tried to release the Azure Scale Python, but its body was too long and large, consuming too much spiritual energy, so he had to reluctantly put it back into the spirit beast bag.

Ye Jingcheng's spirit shield was the largest and consumed the most spiritual energy. This time, he summoned both the Scarlet Flame Fox and the Jade Ring Rat.

The group's speed decreased again, and they also took out magical instruments. In terms of magical instruments, Ye Jingteng was the richest at the moment.

Three flying swords and a first-order small umbrella magical instrument.

The spiritual plants on Five Poison Peak were relatively sparse, and they were all strangely colored, either black poisonous weeds or brightly colored plants.

The spiritual energy was not great, but the toxicity was not small, and some strange spirit insects might emerge from these plants.

Therefore, most cultivators did not like these spiritual plants very much.

"There is a poisonous pool ahead, go around it!" Ye Xingqun lowered his voice, and then released several black wood ants to start a new exploration.

At this moment, the Jade Ring Rat's ears were also flapping, constantly listening carefully, not daring to be careless.

The danger here was obviously not small.

"It's a bit strange, it seems that many cultivators have been here recently!" Ye Xingqun said.

These words caused alarm.

In this kind of place, poisonous insects were one aspect, but encountering cultivators was even more dangerous.

Killing and seizing treasures here, your background and identity are useless.

And this place was too suitable for ambushes.

"You can look at the traces we have passed, because the spirit shield is corroded, it will leave some different spirit mist. Although this spirit mist is difficult to see with the naked eye, it is real. My black wood ants are sensitive to it!" Ye Xingqun seemed to see the doubts of the others, and explained it surprisingly.

"This kind of trace will completely disappear in three to four days, and even the black wood ants will not be able to find it then!" Ye Xingqun said.

"Could it be that the Five Poison Venerable's cave is real?" Ye Jingli was immediately surprised and somewhat excited.

"It's hard to say. In short, be vigilant. If possible, don't look for the Five Poison Bees, look for the Purple Poison Bramble first!" Ye Xingyu suggested.

With more cultivators, there would be more changes.

Helping Ye Jingteng find the Purple Poison Bramble, complete the sect mission, and exchange for enough contribution points to break through the foundation establishment stage was the most important thing.

"The Purple Poison Bramble likes dry environments and does not like wetness. Go to the sunny side of Five Poison Peak!" Ye Xingyu ordered.

Although Five Poison Peak rarely sees the sun, it is not without it. There are many poisonous pools and poisonous ponds on the shady side, and even more swamps.

With a direction and vigilance in their hearts, the route the five people took was set, but the speed was even slower.

Several times the black wood ants were alert, and the Jade Ring Rat was also alert.

The five people even saw a group of Purple Cloud Scorpions carrying a blue ox from a distance, flying towards the top of the peak.

At that time, the five people were startled and quickly hid their magical instrument spirit shields, choosing to use detoxifying pills and Ice Purity Pills to resist the poisonous miasma.

After all, the weakest of these Purple Cloud Scorpions were first-order top-grade poisonous scorpions. When these scorpions flew up, they looked like a purple cloud, which was extremely terrifying.

They were a level more terrifying than the Five Poison Bees.

Fortunately, those Purple Cloud Scorpions seemed to have prey, and because they did not have spirit shields, they did not notice them.

And Ye Jingcheng's treasure book also opened a page, this group of Purple Cloud Scorpions could advance to Purple Crystal Flying Scorpions.

And the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpions could reach the 3rd order at most.

Although Ye Jingcheng wanted them, he was clear-headed. With his current strength, plus the Scarlet Flame Fox and the Golden Scale Beast, he could not feed this group of Purple Cloud Scorpions.

After walking for half an hour, everyone felt that the soil began to become sandy and hardened.

This was the environment that the Purple Poison Bramble liked. Sure enough.

In the distance, there were strips of bramble.

Most of these brambles were wrapped around the knolls, dead trees, and some were spread flat on the ground.

This scene made the faces of several people ease, after all, there were no tall trees nearby, and the Purple Poison Bramble could not wrap around the trees and attack from the sky, otherwise their danger would be even greater.

"Find a single plant on the periphery that is at least a hundred years old!" Ye Jingteng also said.

There were quite a few Purple Poison Brambles in front of them, and it would be dangerous to rush in.

On the contrary, there was a better chance of finding a lone one on the outside.

Don't look at the many knolls here, but they might have been sucked dry of blood by the Purple Poison Bramble, falling into the barren land and forming knolls.

At this moment, a voice transmission suddenly came to Ye Jingcheng's mind.

"Be careful, there are cultivators here!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng also noticed that the Jade Ring Rat had an abnormality. He saw it looking at Ye Jingcheng with a puzzled expression.

It seemed that the poisonous miasma also affected the Jade Ring Rat's judgment, making it unsure, after all, these Purple Poison Bramble thickets were also terrifying!
