When the three Spirit Snakes were wrapped by the golden poison, Lu Ping found that the spirits of the three Spirit Snakes were shaken. The golden mist formed a small vortex around the three Spirit Snakes. An invisible airflow, a blue Profound Qi, and a white cold mist respectively swallowed and spat out from the mouths of the three Spirit Snakes, absorbing the poison contained in the golden mist.
Lu Ping knew that in order to strengthen the innate ability of Monster Cultivators, they must absorb the same kind of things that were more powerful than their own innate ability. The Cyan Luan didn't care about the life source fire of the Red Mantis Bird. For the same reason, the three Spirit Snakes swallowed and spat out the golden mist, indicating that the mist contained a poison that was more powerful than the life source venom of the Spirit Snakes.
This made Lu Ping vigilant. The venom of the Green Sea Snake was already one of the most violent poisons in the world. What kind of poison was more violent than the Green Sea Snake?
After entering the Golden Valley, under the guidance of Dabao, a thousand-year-old Spirit Grass was quickly captured by Lu Ping's Divine Sense. At the same time, there was a violent aura guarding in front of the Spirit Grass.
Lu Ping didn't hesitate to command the Spirit Snakes to move forward. With a roar, a Monster Beast that looked like a cow and a deer rushed towards Lu Ping with heavy steps. Every time the Monster Beast touched the ground, it would produce a strange force, making Lu Ping feel unsteady. At the same time, the spiritual power in his body seemed to begin to fluctuate uncontrollably.
The three Spirit Snakes didn't panic. They twisted their tails together and instantly stabilized their swaying bodies. When the Monster Beast rushed over, the Spirit Snakes suddenly dodged to the sides. At the same time, they swept their tails horizontally. The rushing Monster Beast was tripped by the feet of the Spirit Snakes. Its huge body suddenly fell forward and rolled all the way, smashing the ground and causing another tremor.
The Monster Beast woke up from the dizziness and quickly stood up. Its body had been hit by the three Spirit Snakes with their tails, leaving a dozen bloody wounds.
The Monster Beast became angry and roared. It opened its mouth and sprayed a gray poisonous gas at the Spirit Snakes.
Unexpectedly, the three Spirit Snakes didn't care about the poisonous gas. They directly passed through the gas and bit the Monster Beast's face, neck, and thigh. The Monster Beast suddenly lost its balance and fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth and twitching.
Dabao, who was standing on Lu Ping's shoulder, saw the Monster Beast die. He shivered as he looked at the three Spirit Snakes. When he played with Samling, Samling would often wrap his body around Dabao. If Samling randomly bit Dabao, Dabao would immediately lose his balance and fall off Lu Ping's shoulder.
Lu Ping didn't care about Dabao's fear. He looked at the Monster Beast in front of him that was around the sixth layer of the Blood Condensation Realm. Lu Ping was very satisfied with Samling's performance. However, it was obvious that he wouldn't be able to obtain any spiritual materials from this Monster Beast. In just a few moments, the Monster Beast's bones had already started to soften. The surface of its body had started to rot, and a thin layer of ice had formed on the other side. This was the result of Samling's three poisons.
Lu Ping walked up to the spirit herb and discovered that it was a Fallen Spirit Herb. It was the main ingredient used to concoct the Fallen Spirit Pellet, a Core Forging Realm medicinal pellet. This medicinal pellet could purify the cultivator's True Yuan and strengthen their foundation. It was also beneficial to the cultivator's ability to fuse with natural spirit items. It was a rare medicinal pellet for the Core Forging Realm.
Lu Ping carefully plucked the Meteorite Spirit Herb and placed it in a separate jade box.
A thousand-year-old Spirit Grass that could grow in the Golden Poison Mist either had a strong resistance to poison, or it was a highly toxic Spirit Grass. Regardless of which type it was, it was a rare and precious Spirit Grass that was far more valuable than ordinary thousand-year-old Spirit Grass. It was the main ingredient for refining some Core Forging Realm's special pills and top-grade cultivation pills.
During the time that Lu Ping entered the Golden Valley, with the help of Samling and Dabao, Lu Ping had already collected more than 20 types of rare thousand-year-old Spirit Grass. In addition, there were hundreds of 500-year-old Spirit Grass. At the same time, Lu Ping also collected the seeds of each matured Spirit Grass. He was going to try to grow them when he returned.
However, the growth of these Spirit Grass was closely related to the poisonous environment of the Golden Valley. Unless Lu Ping could create a similar environment, it would be difficult for Lu Ping to fulfill his wish.
However, Lu Ping had encountered danger many times. As Lu Ping ventured deeper into the Golden Valley, the poisonous beasts he encountered became stronger and stronger. Samling's strength was only equivalent to an ordinary Seventh Layer Blood Condensation Realm beast. Moreover, the toxicity of poisonous beasts was proportional to their cultivation. Although Samling's venom was of high quality, it was not as toxic as a late stage Blood Condensation Realm poisonous beast. Therefore, Samling could no longer deal with the poisonous beasts' attacks. Lu Ping also began to attack more frequently.
However, after discovering a two-thousand-year-old Night Patrol Grass, they were chased by a group of poisonous cloud ants. Fortunately, Lu Ping was prepared in advance. He asked Dabao to sneak underground. While the poisonous cloud ants were chasing after Lu Ping's group, Dabao lured them away and plucked the precious Night Patrol Grass.
Without the protection of Lu Ping's earth energy, even if Dabao ate a poison avoidance pill, he was still poisoned when he met up with Lu Ping. Fortunately, the toxicity was not strong. Lu Ling mischievously bit Dabao's ear and pulled out the poison. However, this scared Dabao half to death.
Lu Ping gradually found that as he went deeper and deeper into the inner layer of the Golden Canyon, the golden mist around him became thicker and thicker, and the corrosion of his earth energy became more and more serious. His Divine Sense seemed to be hindered, and he could only explore within a radius of a hundred feet. If he tried to explore outside, his Divine Sense would feel a burning pain, as if it was burning.
In order to be safe, Lu Ping always held a middle grade spirit stone in his hand and maintained a state of cultivation, so as not to consume too much spiritual power. His Divine Sense also always paid attention to the surrounding hundred feet, and no longer explored outside.
Along the way, Lu Ping encountered the remains of several cultivators who had fallen in the Golden Canyon. However, most of the storage bags carried by the cultivators had been corroded by the golden poisonous mist for a long time. The items inside were also the same, which made Lu Ping feel quite regretful.
On this day, Lu Ping encountered the remains of another cultivator. At first, Lu Ping didn't take it seriously, but when he got closer, he found that the remains had traces of being turned over, and fresh soil was exposed underneath.
Lu Ping's expression was solemn. This was the first time Lu Ping had encountered a cultivator exploring the inner layer of the Golden Canyon.
The mist was getting thicker and thicker. Even if the cultivator had excellent eyesight, he couldn't see far and could only use his Divine Sense to look around.
A vigilant figure suddenly appeared in Lu Ping's Divine Sense. Lu Ping took a few steps forward and asked in surprise, "Is that Brother Liao Hu in front?"
When the vigilant cultivator in front heard Lu Ping's question, his cautious aura suddenly relaxed and immediately became chaotic.
Lu Ping walked over and saw Liao Hu sitting cross-legged on the ground. He took out a pill from a jade bottle and couldn't wait to swallow it. At the same time, his whole body's spiritual power surged, and his face alternated between green, black and gold.
Lu Ping's expression changed. He quickly walked forward and slapped Liao Hu's back. A stream of spiritual power flowed into Liao Hu's body like a clear stream, and together with Liao Hu's own spiritual power, it cleansed the poison that had invaded his body.
Liao Hu spat out a mouthful of golden blood and thanked, "Thanks to Brother Lu, otherwise, even if I don't die, I would have lost a layer of skin."
Lu Ping said with a dignified expression, "Brother Liao's family should often go in and out of the inner layer of the Golden Valley. How did you get poisoned by the golden mist?"
Liao Hu's eyes were a little evasive as he said, "Of course I wanted to collect more spirit herbs. The deeper I went, the more rare spirit herbs there would be. Maybe I could even pick the 3,000-year-old spirit herb that Fa Xiang Laozu used for alchemy. Unexpectedly, the golden mist suddenly became stronger, and the antidote pill prepared by the family was no longer effective. My protective Gang Qi was also rapidly corroded, and I didn't have time to replenish my spiritual power. If I hadn't escaped quickly, my life would have been over."
Lu Ping knew that he must be hiding something, so he didn't probe further and asked, "Is the poisonous mist really that powerful?"
Liao Hu nodded and said, "If you go further in, the ground will completely turn golden. The golden poisonous mist is so thick that it seems to have turned into liquid. Walking in it will feel sticky. That should be the core area of the Golden Valley."
Lu Ping thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Liao, what plans do you have in the future?"
Liao Hu looked back with lingering fear and hurriedly advised, "I know Brother Lu plans to go in, but I advise Brother Lu not to go in. It is too dangerous inside. Even if Brother Lu's spiritual power far surpasses other cultivators in the same realm, it won't be enough to support your protective Gang Qi for too long. Although Little Brother didn't die this time, the poison entered your body and damaged your vitality. You can't stay in the inner layer of the Golden Valley any longer. You have to get out of the range of the golden mist as soon as possible. "
Lu Ping felt that Liao Hu's advice was a little too hasty, as if he was afraid that he would enter the core area. So, Lu Ping nodded and said, "Since Brother Liao said that, Little Brother doesn't dare to go in. Brother Liao is only at the Ninth Layer of the Blood Condensation Realm and can't withstand it, let alone Little Brother. However, it wasn't easy for Little Brother to come here, so I want to look around the inner layer while I still have some spiritual power left. I want to see if I can find more spiritual herbs."
When Liao Hu heard that Lu Ping had given up on exploring the core area, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, Little Brother will leave first."
Lu Ping said, "Brother Liao, be careful on your way back. It's best if you find another exit. I heard that Shui Yan Pavilion's He Lixin is also in the Golden Valley and is preparing to deal with the Liao Family cultivators."
After bidding farewell to Liao Hu, Lu Ping looked at the core area of the Golden Valley with a playful expression and muttered, "Core area, huh? I really have to go in for the Golden Nut Fruit Tree."
When he reached the edge of the core area, it was just as Liao Hu had said. The black soil and the golden soil formed a clear dividing line.
When Samling reached the dividing line, he seemed to sense danger and refused to enter the golden area no matter what. However, the fervent look in Samling's eyes told Lu Ping that it wasn't that they didn't want to go in, but that they were too weak and didn't have the qualifications to enter.
After Lu Ping took another antidote pill, he dissolved three pills into liquid and sprinkled them into the "Water Curtain Skyflower". Then, he stepped into the golden area with one foot.
A sizzling sound could be heard, and the protective aura around Lu Ping's body began to corrode at a speed far faster than before. Green smoke rose from the "Water Curtain Skyflower", and the spiritual power in Lu Ping's body began to evaporate like a pot of boiling water.
