Chapter 428.
Watching the message that popped up in his vision slowly disappear, a trace of gravity appeared in Wang Chen’s eyes.
Don’t look at the fact that he had easily killed this black snake, but the effort it had actually taken was not small.
And this was still the first Dungeon Monster that Wang Chuan had encountered.
There were countless strange and evil creatures inhabiting the Nine Dragons Earth Palace, and they were undoubtedly the greatest threat to explorers.
Over the centuries, it was unknown how many sect disciples and loose cultivators had come down and never returned.
Most of them were victimized by these monsters.
This kind of black snake that Wang Chen couldn’t name, he had no problem dealing with three or five or a dozen of them.
But if the number of surge to dozens of hundreds, then it is quite dangerous.
The Earth Palace prohibits air, and suppresses the Purple Mansion cultivation, so it is not easy to escape, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the bottomless abyss!
While giving himself a wake-up call, Wang Chen began to dig up the broken star grass by the water pool.
He estimated that the black snake that he had just killed was the guardian of these shattered star grasses, equivalent to the elite monsters guarding the pass.
One of them earned hundreds of Human Virtue Points.
As for the vintage Broken Star Grass here, Wang Chuan found that there were as many as six plants, and according to the estimate of a hundred years and an inch, the highest vintage among them was more than five hundred!
Wang Dust wasn’t sure how many Spirit Stones such a broken Star Grass could be sold for in Ten Thousand Spirits City, but he thought that it wouldn’t be a small amount.
He carefully dug out these Broken Star Grasses with their roots.
The roots, stems, leaves, and stamens of the Star-Shattering Grass could all be used as medicine, so the more the plant remained intact, the more valuable it was.
Although Wang Chuan hadn’t done much collecting before, he was after all a Purple Mansion cultivator, and with one method to understand all methods, he naturally wouldn’t make rookie mistakes easily.
After the six broken star grasses were unearthed, they were all put into the jade box by Wang Chuan and then deposited into the Sumeru Ring.
Maximum ensure that the medicinal effect is not lost.
In fact, there are still some broken star grasses growing by the water pool, but those that are not in the year, he did not touch.
Hunting is not endless, there are fish every year, leaving it for later, following the natural cycle of the way!
With his harvest, Wang Dust continued on.
He didn’t know if the direction he had chosen was correct, but since he had made a choice, he wouldn’t change it at will.
In the underground world, there was no morning and evening, and without the use of clocks and watches, it was difficult to estimate the passage of time.
Wang Dust went over hill after hill, encountering quite a few monster attacks on the way.
Mainly snakes, scorpions, foxes and rats, and other exotics.
These guys liked to lurk in the piles of rocks, under the soil, or in the weeds, and when someone passed by, they would rise up and attack, either swooping and biting, or spitting venomous poison.
Quite difficult to deal with.
Wang Chen also found many spiritual herbs and medicines.
When he encountered monsters, he blasted them with his fist, chopped them with his sword, and harvested human virtue.
Discovering spiritual objects, he collected them into his bag and filled his treasury.
With the passage of time, and one battle after another, Wang Dust gradually adapted to the special environment here.
However, Wang Dust never found a way out, and the Nine Dragons Earth Palace Geomancy Map never showed a location.
Wang Dust sank his heart and prepared himself for a long exploration.
After walking like this for an estimated three or four days, he didn’t get out of the hilly area.
On the contrary, the collection in the Sumeru Ring was much richer.
Although it was said that if he kept going like this, Wang Dust would be able to last for a long time.
But the pressure on the mind was always there.
Next, after traveling for another two or three days, a deserted village appeared in Wang Dust’s line of sight.
His eyes instantly lit up.
The most feared thing about exploring aimlessly like this was that there was no change, what one saw and encountered along the way was more or less the same, lonely and boring as if caught in a dead end, it was easy for one’s mind to collapse.
Wang Chen’s will was definitely not this fragile, but he was also unwilling to fall into a deadlock.
The appearance of this deserted village ahead might be a variable!
Wang Dust couldn’t help but speed up.
The deserted village was close at hand.
It was unknown how many years this village had been deserted, and most of the buildings had fallen apart with earth, but there were a few rock-built houses that still maintained their basic framework.
Only the front and back of the houses were full of weeds.
As Wang Dust approached, a weasel-like monster suddenly leaped out.
Immediately, it turned around and fled towards the outside of the village.
Wang Dust didn’t make a move to intercept and kill it, letting the guy off the hook.
He circled around the deserted village and didn’t find any other evil monsters or strange creatures.
Then he chose a stone house in the best condition.
The door of the room had long since rotted into mud, but the body of the room was still solid, and even the roof had not collapsed.
The room was quite large and empty inside, with a thick layer of grime on the floor and a smell of decay permeating the room.
Wang Dust swept around with his divine sense and cast a cleansing spell after making sure it was safe.
Cleaning out all the dust and dirt.
Immediately afterward, Wang Dust took out some items from his storage bag, and he set up a fire in the room.
The smell of roasted meat soon filled the air.
In fact, with Wang Dust’s cultivation level, there was basically no difference between camping in the wild and camping here.
A stone house like this couldn’t possibly provide much defense either.
But some habits are probably engraved in the genes, living in the house is just more secure and feels quite comfortable.
With the spirit wine, Wang Chen ate a barbecue meal.
After filling his stomach, he utilized his Mud Stone Technique to make a stone door for the stone house.
Wang Chuan’s Mud and Stone Art had long been practiced to the level of great perfection, and his Object Control Art was also at its peak, so rubbing a stone door by hand was really very simple for him, and the final product not only opened and closed, but also had movable stone bolts.
Although this is not much of a necessity, it is also a kind of fun.
After sealing the portal, Wang Chen took out the array disk from his Sumeru Ring and arranged it in the middle of the room.
This set of Portable Formation Disks seized from Daoist Xuan Yi, integrating Spirit Gathering, Defense, and Concealment, was the fundamental guarantee for him to be able to rest and cultivate in an unknown region.
The grade of the array disk was quite high, requiring a medium-grade spirit stone to drive it, Wang Chen first stimulated the Spirit Gathering Formation, performed three circumference days, and completed today’s cultivation to replenish his dantian mana before turning on the Defense Formation.
He sat down on the futon, closed his eyes and began to rest.
Even though cultivators could manage to go for long periods of time without resting or sleeping, sleep was able to eliminate mental fatigue to a large extent and restore one’s prana and vitality, so even Jindan real people and even YuanYing True Immortals had times when they drifted off to sleep and fall into a dream.
Wang Chen’s consciousness had just fallen into chaos when his mind suddenly throbbed.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Essence shone in his eyes, and he had already stimulated the Cave Truth Technique!
The defense spell formation had been triggered.
In the next moment, Wang Chen saw a black tentacle drilling out from the bottom of the stone door in front of him, from among the cracks.
Noiselessly, it extended towards his position.
A sinister and cold aura unexpectedly seeped within the spell formation, and the temperature of the surrounding space dropped precipitously.
The fire beside Wang Chen quickly dimmed, on the verge of extinguishing!
Evil Sneak!
