Chapter 444 Daying ruins, harvest of flowers
Heading west from Huainan and upstream along the river, you will reach the Luosong Mountains that vertically divide the Song Dynasty.
The pass corresponding to this line is Jiangxia Water Village, to the north is Dongmenguan, and further north is the Zangdu Grand Canyon.
This is also the goal of Lin Shan’s trip.
Along the way, Yuhong galloped, climbed over mountains and ridges, broke through countless clouds, surpassed flocks of birds, and arrived in just a few days.
What stood in front of him was a huge silhouette that covered the sky and the sun as far as the eye could see.
The deep, dark slit contains countless dangers. It is also one of the few roads that can be traversed in the Larch Mountains.
At the entrance of the Dirty Poison Grand Canyon, there is an abandoned camp, which was left by the original demonic Black Lotus Sect. Now it has become a scenic spot for future generations to visit!
Part of the original appearance of the camp is preserved, and there are also inscriptions written by righteous monks who later passed by and captured this place, telling the origins and results of the small battle. There are even some sculptures of fallen monks standing here.
What surprised Lin Shan the most was that he discovered here the martyr monuments of Qi Zhong, a true disciple of Qianyun Pavilion, and Princess Guo, the deacon of Cangxuan Sect. They were all erected by their own sects who later counterattacked here.
The sculptures of Demon Cult Protector Yan Yuanchun, Demon Cult Messenger Lin Shan, Demon Cult Messenger Luan Chun, etc. are also in this camp, but they are all depicted with ferocious faces and ugly descriptions.
Lin Shan looked at his statue and was speechless. When he stood in front of it in person, no one would connect the two.
The key is that the entire camp is deserted. No one comes here to pay their respects, and it is as deserted as a tomb.
Also, casual cultivators generally either live in the mountains and forests, or work hard in various cultivation gathering places. How can they have the leisure to come and remember this?
Only when the disciples of the Zhengdao Sect go down the mountain to experience the world of mortals and visit famous mountains and rivers, can they pass through this place and understand this little-known past.
Lin Shan looked over the traces left by the right path in the camp, smiled casually, shook his head, and did not make any changes. Everything has become a legend, so just let it be buried in memories.
After seeing that it was still early, he got up and walked into the canyon without further delay.
It's still as difficult to get around here as ever.
Because of the dangers of poisonous fog and strong winds in the sky, it is relatively easier to advance on the ground. All kinds of poisonous insects and beasts appear in endlessly on the way, which is the most indispensable thing in the deep mountains and old forests.
Because Lin Shan was alone and there were no oil bottles around him to drag him down, he traveled very quickly, cutting a path forcefully and crossing deep, as if he was entering an uninhabited land.
We encountered venomous snakes, venomous mosquitoes, venomous ants, venomous dart frogs, and even venomous spiders that covered the entire deep forest with their webs!
He was too lazy to fight, so he rushed over those he could get rid of with speed, and used ghost fire to clear the area and burn them past those he couldn't get rid of.
About two hours later, I walked out of the jungle and came to the swamp and poisonous spring, and passed through it again effortlessly.
The next thing placed in front is a sea of colorful flowers.
Seeing this, Lin Shan's eyes suddenly lit up!
He remembered it very clearly. Even though the Demon Cult team suffered a lot here, he also got a lot of plant seeds and refined them into many 'bean soldiers'. During the foundation building period, he barely played the legion style, which was of little use. Not small.
Now that we are in the golden elixir stage, it is useless to put aside the 'sowing beans into soldiers'. Those seeds accumulated before have become useless and have basically no effect on the same level.
Unless you get some golden elixir stage vegetation and monster seeds, it will be of some use.
Generally, this type of seed needs ‘live seeds’, not ‘dead seeds’. Only 'living species' can be refined into bean soldiers and turned into puppets of vegetation, spirits, and monsters to fight for themselves.
Most of the seeds on the market are dead, and it is not cost-effective to buy them to make bean soldiers. Moreover, the "live seeds" of golden elixir stage plants are even rarer. Some golden elixir masters have this thing, and they will probably try to cultivate it. If not, you can also use the herbal essence to find someone to make medicine for you.
In addition, it takes ten thousand years for the golden elixir stage grass and tree spirits to transform, so they are rare and hard to find. Their combat power is also ridiculous, and few monks of the same level can defeat them.
However, in the Dirty Poison Grand Canyon, Lin Shan clearly remembered that there was a kind of corn monster, which was a real ten thousand year old monster!
If you could break off a corn cob, wouldn't it mean that there were so many corn kernels on it?
Although it is impossible to think about it, it is a bit outrageous for a corn cob to induce the birth of countless golden elixir bean soldiers, but it is always possible to exchange one for another.
The key point is that this corn demon is a mutation of edible crop plants. It is less threatening with a single method. It is much easier to deal with than those tree demons, vine demons, and flowers and plants.
They've all come, so it's not too much to just accept one, right?
He walked toward the sea of flowers with ill intentions.
The monsters in the sea of flowers had strong senses and saw that he was not easy to mess with. They gathered their petals and covered their eyes with one leaf, saying that they could not see or hear, so you should not come over.
The sunflowers no longer faced the sun, but turned their fruit bowls to face the sun, turning their faces away from him.
The pea shooters all shut up. The barrels were so dry that they couldn't spit out a single bean sprout.
Chrysanthemums, peonies, crabapples and other out-of-season flowers were all returned into flower buds, as if I hadn't grown up yet.
Lin Shan: "."
Why are you hiding your ears here?
Do you really think I'm blind and didn't look before?
There is no way, the intelligence of the grass and tree spirits is limited and we cannot regard them as human beings.
Lin Shan ignored their poor disguise at all, walked over with a sinister smile on his face, and started to destroy them on the spot!
He pulled out a chrysanthemum demon with his left hand. There were more than a dozen legs at the base of the chrysanthemum demon. It was so helpless.
He pulled up a sunflower with his right hand. The demon's face twitched and the seeds scattered all over the ground. He didn't know whether he was crying or laughing.
Lin Shan recited a poem while pulling it back:
"I advise you not to cherish your gold-threaded clothes; I advise you to cherish your youth."
"Flowers are ready to be broken when they bloom, but don't wait until there are no flowers to break branches."
There was chaos in the sea of flowers!
All the flower demons turned around angrily, who the hell wrote this poem?
Which unknown person?
Are you specifically trying to get in trouble with us?
They ignited hatred and concentrated their firepower on this hateful human being, trying to drown him here with just a spit of saliva.
All of a sudden, the sky was filled with all kinds of flowers, seeds and fruits flying across the sky, falling in disorder.
Lin Shan smiled brightly, and it was exactly what he wanted!
He directly took out a tea cup, a magic weapon, and used his magic power to enlarge it into a giant bowl, collecting all the seeds and not rejecting anyone who came.
"Hahahaha! Little flower demon, come to the bowl quickly!"
It is worth mentioning that this magic weapon was originally obtained from Qi Zhong, a true disciple of Qianyun Pavilion. After so many years, he has obtained so many trophies. In comparison, the quality of the magic weapon refined by Qianyun Pavilion is still the best. .
This trip lasted for a quarter of an hour, and the giant bowl above my head collected a large number of seeds, a full two-thirds of which were melon seeds!
Who has the biggest sunflower basin?
Lin Shan estimated that he would never be able to eat melon seeds again in the rest of his life, so he had achieved the ‘freedom of eating melon seeds’. The vegetation and monsters in the sea of flowers in the surrounding area have also withered. The seeds are limited and it is impossible to keep sending them to him.
The flower demons in other areas of the flower sea in the distance were stretching their necks to watch the battle. After seeing Lin Shan looking over with unfinished expression, they quickly lowered their heads to escape, silently thinking, "You can't see me, you can't see me."
But Lin Shan doesn't care about this, he doesn't even know what contentment means.
After all, he has two storage magic weapons on him!
A storage bracelet left by Master Guizhen and a storage ring left by Taoist Qingji. The space is huge!
Since I am here today, I will harvest them all. When I return to Lu State, I can add another track and enter the flower and bird market!
His eyes were as excited as a money man, and he looked at the vast sea of flowers, which seemed to be a sea of clattering spiritual stones!
"Hahaha, I'm so excited!"
He walked all the way and started harvesting along the way with his big bowl. He voluntarily paid the grain without killing. Those who resisted were given preferential treatment. Those who dared to evade were uprooted to serve as a warning to others.
The sea of flowers in the entire valley is finally boiling!
All the spirits jumped up and ran away, treating him like poisonous insects and beasts!
This guy is simply inhumane. He obviously wants to catch us all in one fell swoop. Is there anyone like you who would cut off his descendants?
With him making such a big fuss, it was hard not to attract the attention of the old antique in the Flower Valley.
In an instant, the energy of each thing suddenly came to life, and two icy consciousnesses locked onto him.
"Ten thousand years of monsters!"
Lin Shan's whole body was shaken, and the secret message was coming!
He poured the flower seeds in the bowl into his storage magic weapon again, turned sideways and looked to both sides, and saw three or four feet high corn cobs rising slowly.
These two thousand-year-old monsters had been sleeping for a long time, and were suddenly awakened. They found that their little brothers were all crying for their parents, and the boundaries drawn between them were all in chaos.
Originally, the sea of flowers was filled with bright purples and reds, overlapping colors, clear lines, and well-organized horizontal layout. It usually looked beautiful and very eye-catching, but after Lin Shan did this, everything went into chaos!
You know, this is the back garden of the demon king in Luosong Mountains who raised it in his early years!
Real back garden!
Although it may not come once in hundreds of years, I am afraid that one day I will suddenly want to take a look, and when I see this scene, why don't I cut them all?
Therefore, on weekdays, this sea of flowers is neatly arranged and maintained to be beautiful, just in case of emergencies.
It's good now. I made such a big mistake while I was taking a nap. Fortunately, I couldn't remember it for a while. If it happened to happen, it would be a fool.
But it's not too late to make amends.
It's too late to quickly kill the intruding humans and urge these little flower demons to re-divide the areas.
Lin Shan never thought of the layer behind him. He thought it was just a gathering place of vegetation and monsters, and he was busy collecting seeds and harvesting them.
Realizing that a thousand-year-old spirit had awakened, he simply stopped caring about the younger ones and stared at the older ones intently, trying to figure out whether he could take over.
The two corn essences were in tandem, locked their air machines, and then launched the corn sticks into the sky. Accompanied by the surging air waves all around, they flew up to the sky and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Shan raised his head in surprise and looked at the clouds in the sky.
This area is one of the few places in the Dirty Poison Grand Canyon where solar energy shines in. Otherwise, it would not be able to illuminate and nourish so many flowers and plants. Without the poisonous fog and strong wind, Baogu Stick would rise directly into the sky and disappear. Could it be that it still wants to fly out of the atmosphere?
At the same time, he also realized something was wrong.
How come there are so many conventionally organized flowers of various categories in a place like the Zirthy Poison Grand Canyon? It feels like there are traces of artificiality, and these two corn essences look like guardians.
Before he could think about it, another small black dot appeared above his head, followed by another one. Accelerated by the gravity of free fall, it was quickly falling towards him!
Lin Shan felt the speed contained in it and straightened up suddenly. He really couldn't take this blow!
Without hesitation, he turned into a rainbow and walked away.
The two Baogu sticks had air locks and built-in pursuit functions. They chased them diagonally downwards, with a long tail of exhaust behind them, which made them comparable to missiles.
He flew left and right, and after the space was compressed to the extreme and it was impossible to escape, he could only use the wind escape talisman to escape.
Because the two Baogu sticks were close to landing, there was no room for turning, and they hit the center of the sea of flowers with a huge impact speed.
“Pfft~~~”
“Pfft~~~”
There was no roar of the expected explosion, only two earth-piercing sounds with long tail notes could be heard, buzzing one after the other. They had just disappeared into the sky, and now they were missing from the ground.
It turned out to be an armor-piercing bullet?
Lin Shan was shocked and found that the water in Jindan Stage was very deep.
Although his overall strength is not bad, many opponents who are not as good as him can also launch attacks that are difficult to resist. Several times, if he did not have the Wind Escape Talisman, he would have been seriously injured.
Sometimes strength and cultivation alone are nothing. On many occasions, extreme attacks always come unexpectedly and are unavoidable.
If you are not careful, you will be seriously injured. When the time comes, it is not impossible to be attacked by a weak opponent.
However, after this blow, the two corn cobs were obviously much wilted, and the leaf nests below were still squirming, trying hard to push out a new corn cob.
"What else?"
Lin Shan suppressed his thoughts and wanted to see how these two would deal with him.
However, when the other party saw that the previously charged attack could not do anything to him, but instead smashed a big hole in the sea of flowers, they were afraid of being held accountable by the Demon King afterwards.
The two 'little corns' that had just been pushed out were a little afraid to use. They just locked the forest mountain again, cowering and riding a tiger, unable to get off.
Lin Shan's heart moved slightly. Just as he was about to walk towards one of them, he suddenly felt that the other party's consciousness seemed to be entangled in communication, and then something seemed to be crawling underground and was about to break out of the ground.
At the same time, several more powerful spiritual consciousnesses locked onto him before he was even unearthed!
"!!!"
Lin Shan felt pain all over his body, as if he had been pricked by needles. He knew that this was because the ten thousand year spirit monster itself had lived for a long time, so each of its consciousnesses had been honed to become extremely powerful.
There are not only two corn spirits in this sea of flowers, but there are more thousand-year-old monsters sleeping underground. If I don't act quickly, I will probably not catch anything by then, and I will be chased up and down!
Without any hesitation, on the eve of realizing that the danger was coming, he decisively gave up the idea of teasing and hunting down the two corn spirits.
Instead, he jumped down into the deep and invisible pit in the middle of the sea of flowers to look for the two corn sticks.
