Chapter 174 The trace of the black ice flower

"No, according to the map, it should be nearby. Why isn't it here?"

After the three separated, Xu Feng first flew westward for about two hundred miles.

During this period, he changed the direction of flight many times, or stopped suddenly. After many counter-reconnaissances, he finally confirmed that there was no tail following him.

Then he took out the map and went in the right direction according to the map.

But for some reason, he came to the vicinity of the place where the black ice flower grew according to the instructions on the map, but he couldn't find the correct location.

After wandering around for several hours, as the sky was getting dark, he took out another map from his hand and began to compare it.

He spent a full hundred spirit stones to buy this map from the grocery store opened by the Tianjian Sect.

The map records the various dangerous places within 500 miles of Wangyue Lake, as well as various monsters entrenched in the vicinity, and precious spiritual objects.

And his current location, named Mihun Valley on the map of the Tianjian Sect, is exactly 500 miles away from Wangyue Lake.

After slowly comparing, he finally determined his location. It turned out that the terrain of each place in this Mihun Valley was very similar, and one would get lost if he was not careful.

The location he was in just now was actually more than thirty miles away from the correct location. No wonder he couldn't find the spiritual medicine.

After half an hour of careful searching, he finally found the Xuanbing Flower.

This made him want to cry, because it was really not easy. In this short thirty-mile road, he encountered no less than seven or eight first-level monsters.

If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and dodged in advance, he might still be fighting with the monsters there and couldn't get away!

He was now standing on a big tree about fifty feet away from the Xuanbing Flower, observing from a high position.

There were more than one Xuanbing Flower in this place. A rough count showed that there were about seven or eight.

However, most of them were young plants with a medicinal age of less than two hundred years and a body length of less than one foot, and could not be used to refine the foundation-building pill.

But this does not mean that they have no value. Xuanbing flowers are essential for refining many kinds of ice-based elixirs. The price of a Xuanbing flower with a medicinal age of more than 100 years will not be less than 1,000 spiritual stones.

There are only two mature Xuanbing flowers with a real medicinal age of nearly 400 years and a length of three feet.

This is already very good. One Xuanbing flower is enough to refine two furnaces of foundation-building pills.

Looking at the main medicine of the foundation-building pill that he had been thinking about not far away, Xu Feng did not act rashly. He still remembered the warning of the monk who left the blueprint.

These Xuanbing flowers are not ownerless, but are guarded by monsters.

Although it is not known whether the guarding monster is still the crown-horned python after so many years, it is impossible for such a rare elixir to be guarded by monsters.

This can be seen from the piles of bones not far away from the Xuanbing flowers.

Xu Feng stood on the treetop, using the lush leaves to cover his body, and kept observing the plants and trees around the Xuanbing flowers for a whole night.

If you want to pick spiritual herbs, you have to keep calm, otherwise you may not be able to pick any spiritual herbs in the end, but you will lose yourself.

"No, it will definitely not work if we keep wasting time like this. It seems that the guardian monsters are also cautious.

As long as there are no cultivators or monsters approaching the black ice flower, they will not show up."

After thinking for a while, Xu Feng prepared to take the initiative.

He first jumped off the treetop and pasted three golden talismans on his body, which formed a three-layer shield.

Then he summoned a flying sword to cruise around him, holding up a defensive shield, and then approached the black ice flower with three steps and three looks.

The whole process went very smoothly, but he did not dare to relax his vigilance at all, and tried his best to release his spiritual consciousness to the extreme to deal with the guardian monsters that might appear at any time.

Just as he approached a black ice flower seedling and was about to pick it, a sad wolf howl suddenly sounded in his ears.

When he looked up, he found that a wolf-shaped monster with green hair appeared in front and behind him.

This kind of monster is called Qingyun Wolf. It is very cunning and ferocious. Generally, three or five of them live together and raise their offspring together.

Judging from the aura of the two wolves, they are both first-class monsters.

This discovery made Xu Feng feel relieved. What he was most worried about was encountering a second-class monster. In that case, his first consideration would definitely be to save his life.

However, if he used all means to kill the two first-class monsters, he would have a great chance to kill them.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng turned half a body to the left, and then took a few steps back, so that the two Qingyun wolves were in front of him, so that he would not be attacked from both sides.

The two Qingyun wolves stared at his every move, with hatred, killing and other expressions in their eyes, and the two green eyes made people shudder.

"Awoo~~" The male wolf howled to the sky.

This roar was very intimidating, like a declaration of sovereignty, and like a declaration of war with Xu Feng, but he remained indifferent.

After roaring, the male wolf bent his body, exerted force on his limbs, and pounced directly at him.

The female wolf also seized the opportunity and launched an attack. The two wolves seemed to have trained countless times and cooperated very skillfully.

The attack intentions of the two wolves naturally could not escape the detection of Xu Feng's consciousness. He only saw him controlling the two three-talent swords and stabbing them to the left and right respectively.

"Clang!"

The two Qingyun wolves would naturally not ignore the flying swords that were stabbing at them quickly. They each raised their giant claws that were more than half a foot long to block them and send them flying backwards.

This also slowed down their forward speed. Taking this opportunity, Xu Feng directly sacrificed six gold brick talismans and smashed them at the heads of the two wolves.

To deal with such a huge monster, you need this kind of powerful gold brick talisman. Others such as the big fireball talisman are not so effective.

The male wolf may charge more often in normal times, and the three gold brick attacks transformed by the talisman were dodged by it with difficulty.

However, the female wolf behind was not so lucky. She only dodged two attacks, and the third gold brick hit her huge wolf head directly.

Xu Feng was sure that if a cultivator was hit by this, he would definitely die.

But monsters are different, especially Qingyun wolves, which are famous for their thick skin and flesh.

This attack only created a half-foot-long wound on the female wolf's forehead, and the wound was particularly shallow.

However, since the wound was on the head, the female wolf stopped attacking even though it was not seriously injured, and shook its head in a daze.

The male wolf dodged the flying sword's piercing and the talisman attack one after another, and rushed to Xu Feng at a very fast speed, shooting out four wind blades more than one foot long with a green light from its mouth and attacking him.

These wind blades were quite powerful, and with just one contact with the shield supported by Xu Feng's golden talisman, two of the three layers of the shield were broken, and the last layer was also in danger.

After the wind blade attack, the distance between Xu Feng and the male wolf was less than ten feet, and the latter opened its mouth and bit his neck fiercely.
