The sudden change also startled the alchemist, but he was not too panicked. With a cold shout, a strong fighting spirit burst out and hit the giant python's head hard. The powerful force made the giant python's head explode with a bang.
After killing the giant python with one blow, the alchemist showed a smug look on his face. However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his eyes suddenly blurred and a sinister laugh rang in his ears: "Boy, you look like a capable person, but get out of here first!"
As soon as the sinister laugh sounded, the alchemist was shocked. Before he could come to his senses, a steel rod fell heavily on his chest. The terrifying force directly knocked him backwards like a cannonball, and then he flew nearly a hundred meters along the ground before slowly stopping.
Just as the alchemist stabilized his body, a burst of white light emerged from his palm, and the space around him twisted and sucked him in. Judging from the situation, this man should have crushed the space stone!
Such a sudden change startled many people present, and they all looked at the person who had made the move.
The person who attacked was a big man in alchemist's robe. He had a face full of flesh and looked not to be a good person. On his shoulder, he was carrying a steel rod about a meter long. At this time, the iron rod was stained with blood.
"Hey, you run pretty fast."
The man with the iron rod looked at the place where the alchemist disappeared before, and couldn't help but grin. Then, with a fierce look in his eyes, he turned to other people again.
Seeing this guy with a face full of flesh staring at them, the expressions of some other contestants present also changed slightly, and they all became alert. Some people even took out their weapons. In this kind of place, they all knew that all the other contestants were their competitors. If they could get rid of one, then they would have an extra chance.
Seeing this, the big man curled his lips in disdain, swung the bloodstained iron rod in his hand fiercely in front of him, and then directly knocked the huge python away. As the python flew out, a sunken pit suddenly appeared under the sand dune. In the pit, a dark yellow rhizome as big as a child's head appeared in everyone's sight.
"Rehmannia glutinosa?"
Looking at the dark yellow rhizome-like object the size of a human head, exclamations suddenly rang out from the surroundings.
Above the sky, Xiao Yuan looked at the dark yellow rhizome buried deep underground, and a meaningful look flashed across his eyes. This Rehmannia glutinosa essence is a rare medicinal material formed by condensing the power of the earth. If the energy is rioting during practice, this Rehmannia glutinosa essence and some pills made from it can have a very good suppressive effect.
But
Xiao Yuan's gaze remained on the deep cave, as if he was thinking about something.
A hundred-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa is usually only the size of a fist and is quite rare. I didn't expect that the Rehmannia glutinosa in the Dan world has grown to the size of a human head. It must be at least a thousand years old. If this thing is placed outside, it will definitely attract many coveted eyes.
However, if it grows naturally, it is impossible for the Rehmannia glutinosa to grow so big. There may be another mystery behind this!
Below, the big man looked at the size of the Rehmannia glutinosa, and a flash of ecstasy flashed across his eyes. He grabbed it and pulled it out, grinning, and glanced at the people around him with fiery eyes. His face darkened and he shouted coldly: "If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
Hearing his cold shout, the expressions of the other dozen or so alchemists changed slightly, but after seeing the fierce look on the big man's face, they did not dare to say anything more. The man's ruthless attack before made them quite afraid!
After hesitating for a moment, the other alchemists finally chose to retreat. Although Rehmannia glutinosa was rare, it would be too uneconomical to lose the qualification for the competition because of it.
Looking at the people who retreated far away as he was told, the big man's face showed even more disdain. He had the strength of a peak Douhuang, but among these people, there were at least two who were only slightly weaker than him, but did not have his fierceness and courage, so these cowardly rats could only return empty-handed.
In this world, the strong always prey on the weak. Without some courage, how can you stand out?
"A bunch of trash."
The big man curled his lips, and a bloodthirsty look flashed across his face. Just as he was about to put the Rehmannia essence in his hand into the ring, a suction force suddenly appeared and directly sucked the Rehmannia essence away.
"Damn it, who dares to touch my things?!"
As the Rehmannia essence flew out of his hand, a violent look flashed across the big man's face. He raised his head suddenly, only to see a figure of a woman in a white dress floating in the sky.
"I moved, what do you want to do?"
Above the sky, Xiao Yuan glanced at the big man indifferently, without any politeness. At this moment, he was just giving the man a taste of his own medicine.
Seeing that the woman in white dress could float in the sky, the big man's face changed. He knew what floating in the sky meant. It meant that this tall and plump beauty was at least a Dou Zong powerhouse. He couldn't afford to offend a powerhouse of that level.
He gritted his teeth. Although he was extremely unwilling, the big man was not ignorant of the current situation. If he could rob others' things, others could naturally rob his things as well.
He stared at Xiao Yuan fiercely, but he did not dare to say anything more. He looked at the thousand-year-old Rehmannia Essence in Xiao Yuan's hand with a lingering look. He was about to leave with a belly full of depression and anger, when a cold voice rang out in the sky:
"Why are you glaring at me? Still want to hold a grudge? Then I'm going to wipe out the roots!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the big man felt something was wrong. The next moment, an extreme cold of winter appeared without warning and froze his entire body directly in the huge black ice coffin.
The biting cold made the big man's face turn pale almost instantly.
However, what made him even more desperate was that through such horrific means, he could guess that this icy beauty was at least a Dou Zong of six or seven stars, and not just a beginner!
This kind of person is someone he absolutely cannot afford to offend!
So he immediately took out the space stone from the ring and crushed it.
At this point, your life is more important!
Then, a burst of white light emerged from his palm, the surrounding space twisted, and then sucked him in directly.
"Tsk, he runs fast, but it's a pity that the Bing Zun Jin has already entered his heart meridian. He will be useless if he doesn't die."
Xiao Yuan waved his hand and the ice coffin disappeared. After properly storing the thousand-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa essence into the ring, he flashed to the hole on the ground.
Although the thousand-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa essence is precious, it is not enough to make Xiao Yuan pay too much attention to it. What he is really interested in is the deeper things.
Yao Lao once taught that although Rehmannia glutinosa was created by condensing the calm and heavy power of pure earth, after growing for a hundred years, its energy would be saturated and it would no longer grow in size.
It is for this reason that Rehmannia glutinosa that is over a hundred years old is extremely rare.
Therefore, once the Rehmannia glutinosa can live for more than a hundred years, what nourishes its growth must not only be the power of the earth, but also some other spiritual objects of heaven and earth!
When Xiao Yuan saw the thousand-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa for the first time just now, he knew that there must be other great treasures underground beneath the Rehmannia glutinosa!
With a wave of his hand, the surrounding space twisted, covering the area where the pit was, making it impossible for ordinary people to discover the situation here. Then Xiao Yuan moved his mind, condensed his fighting spirit into a huge palm, and began to dig the pit.
A large amount of soil was grabbed and then thrown aside casually by Xiao Yuan.
He was very patient and dug for more than ten feet before he finally dug up the real treasure!
The figure fell to the bottom of the deep pit. Xiao Yuan waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew away the layer of soil, revealing a piece of snow-white jade. "Is this... the Earth's Core Jade Mother?"
After a careful identification, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but grin.
Make big!
The Earth's Core Jade Mother is a magical jade that has been formed by the power of the earth for countless years. Due to the special calmness and heaviness of the power of the earth, the Earth's Core Jade Mother is a treasure that is priceless for practitioners. When practicing or refining pills, having a cushion made of the Earth's Core Jade Mother will have a very significant effect in suppressing the violent energy in the body. With this thing, the chance of going astray will be reduced to a minimum.
This effect is similar to the Green Lotus Seat that Xiao Yan obtained when he obtained the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire. However, to be honest, this Earth Core Jade Mother is even better.
Of course, the blue lotus seat condensed by Xiao Yan himself is also quite powerful. It is even more powerful than the Earth Core Jade Mother.
However, for Xiao Yuan, this Earth Core Jade Mother has other uses.
This thing was born from the power of the earth, and it is the key to Xiao Yuan's practice of the Taiyin wet earth energy of the Six Qi Transformations!
If one could cultivate the energy of Taiyin Wet Earth, then one would be not far from truly being promoted to a Dou Zun powerhouse!
Restraining his excitement, Xiao Yuan made a decisive move, placing his palm on the exposed part of the Earth Core Jade Mother. His soul power spread out, surrounding the entire Earth Core Jade Mother. He then raised his body, raised his palm to the sky, and shouted in a deep voice: "Get up!"
The next moment, mud was splashed everywhere, and the Jade Mother of the Earth's Core was actually pulled out from the ground by Xiao Yuan!
After completely pulling out the Earth's Core Jade Mother, Xiao Yuan discovered that this thing was about half a zhang high and about an arm's length wide. An Earth's Core Jade Mother of this size is almost impossible to see in the outside world.
"With this thing, it's only a matter of time before I can advance to Dou Zun!"
Looking at the size of the Earth's Core Jade Mother, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but nod.
But then, he felt that the soul power of the Jade Mother of the Earth's Center had become very comfortable.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up!
"This Earth Core Jade Mother seems to have given birth to the Earth Core Soul?"
Xiao Yuan quickly summoned the Earth's Core Jade Mother to his front, and the unparalleled soul power of the eighth-grade alchemist suddenly surged out, penetrating the Earth's Core Jade Mother and revealing the situation inside at a glance!
In Xiao Yuan's perception, there was a head-sized hole in the middle of the Earth's Core Jade Mother, and in it, there was a milky white liquid less than half a finger deep!
"It is indeed the soul essence of the earth's core!"
Xiao Yuan couldn't help but feel excited.
The core of the earth soul is an extremely rare treasure of heaven and earth, and this thing has a crazy attraction for alchemists, because this thing can forge the soul!
The so-called soul-forging means training and tempering. In other words, this soul marrow in the heart of the earth can wash away the essence of the soul!
More importantly, this thing can be used as a substitute for the pregnancy dust. Although it cannot reach the level of complete replacement, the gap is not that big!
After carefully putting away the Earth's Core Jade Mother, Xiao Yuan's eyes showed a hint of anticipation.
There are so many good things in the alchemy world, it looks like we’ll have a great harvest this time!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but want to let out a villain-like laugh, but considering the character setting of his current pseudonym, he decided to restrain himself.
After putting away all the things, Xiao Yuan touched the bottom of the pit with his toes, and his body rushed out violently, then landed steadily on the edge of the cave entrance. He waved his hand casually, and the surrounding soil flew up, finally burying the deep pit completely.
After doing all this, Xiao Yuan clapped his hands, removed the space barrier, turned around and was about to leave.
"Haha, my friend, all the treasures of heaven and earth are for everyone who sees them. Although I don't know what you got, it must have been a great harvest. It's a bit against the rules for you to accept all of them."
Just as Xiao Yuan turned around, a laugh suddenly rang out. He turned his head slightly and looked at the old man in yellow who was walking slowly in the rippling space.
"Have you hidden enough? I thought you were going to keep hiding."
Xiao Yuan said coldly.
"You saw me take action just now, right? Even so, do you still want to provoke me?"
As the cold voice sounded, the temperature between heaven and earth dropped sharply, and black ice snowflakes fell down.
“Haha, I am also a Seven Star Dou Zong. Once we start fighting, it will definitely attract a lot of people. By then, you will be in trouble!”
The old man in yellow said with a smile, but there was a hint of cunning in his smile.
"You deserve it?"
Xiao Yuan was too lazy to waste time talking to these blind people, so he just slapped them.
A huge black frost hand appeared out of nowhere and slapped the old man in yellow hard.
Seeing that Xiao Yuan started fighting without any reason, a gloomy look flashed in the eyes of the old man in yellow. He raised his hand and waved his sleeves, and the khaki fighting spirit condensed in front of him and turned into a thick shield.
"Oh!"
The black frost hand slapped on the shield, and the astonishing coldness spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire shield. An extreme coldness also followed the ochre-colored fighting spirit and continued to erode the old man in yellow.
Feeling the terrible chill, the yellow-robed old man's face finally changed drastically, and he screamed in horror:
"Ice Honor Power!?" (End of this chapter)
