"Lu Daoyou, if I find spiritual herbs later, can I also exchange them for pills from you?"
Wang Yuan's eyes lit up. At the same time, the others also looked over. Most of the spiritual herbs they obtained could only be sold to the various pill shops in Full Moon City. After all, they didn't know how to refine pills. Then, they would buy pills from the pill shops. As time went by, there were many more troubles in the middle. Especially when the various immortal sects were only recruiting disciples for a few months, the number of adventurous rogue cultivators increased. The pills in Full Moon City also became in high demand. It was not possible to buy enough pills just because you had Spirit Stones.
Sometimes, spiritual herbs would be haggled by the black-hearted shopkeepers in the pill shops. However, Qi Gathering Pills could be exchanged for at least four Spirit Stones anywhere. At this time, it could even reach five Spirit Stones in Full Moon City.
"Of course." Lu Xiaotian nodded. At this time, the enchantment was still very spacious. Moreover, he had stored some spiritual herbs. Who knew when they would be useful in the future.
With Luo Qing's successful experience of exchanging pills, the others were envious and also raised their spirits.
"Haha, my luck is here." After going down the hill and about to pass through the bamboo forest, Zhang Guang found a fist-sized copper ore and a few low-grade Spirit Stones between a few green bamboos. He was immediately overjoyed, afraid that others would snatch it first. After all, the spiritual items found along the way were all his.
However, everyone present was an immortal cultivator, and their eyes were sharp. Almost as soon as Zhang Guang took the first step, the others followed Zhang Wen's direction and saw the scattered items among the green bamboos.
"Be careful, it's a trap!" Fan Qing's expression changed and he shouted sternly.
"Brother Zhang, come back!" Zheng Shiqi also shouted.
Lu Xiaotian was startled. With a whooshing sound, a few sharpened spirit bamboos shot out from the swaying bamboo leaves towards Zhang Guang at high speed.
"Brother Zhang, be careful." Zheng Shiqi and Zhang Guang were as close as brothers. When he saw Zhang Guang in danger, his expression changed drastically. He wanted to rush forward to help him, but he didn't expect Fan Qing to pull him back with a horsetail whisk.
"What are you doing?" Zheng Shiqi immediately looked at Fan Qing angrily.
"If we don't save Fellow Daoist Zhang, as long as he can survive, he might still have a chance to live. "This is a trap. If we fall into it, the injured Fellow Daoist Zhang will lose his backup, and that will be the true path to death. Take a look at what's inside the bamboo forest." Fan Qing's face darkened. After releasing Zheng Shiqi, he pointed off into the distance.
Lu Xiaotian and the others looked in the direction that Fan Qing was pointing at. Sure enough, they saw a figure moving in the bamboo forest.
"What can a few bamboos do to me?" Zhang Guang was also aware of the impending crisis, but he still roared unwillingly. He pulled out the spirit saber from his waist, but he found that the sharpened spirit bamboo seemed to be somewhat inaccurate and shot a few feet above his head.
Peng, the spiritual bamboo seemed to have collided with something. What followed was a buzzing sound.
"Not good, it's the Green Bamboo Wasps. Everyone, retreat!" Hunchback He suddenly remembered a type of demonic insect in the bamboo forest, and his expression greatly changed as he roared.
Fan Qing couldn't be bothered to stop Zheng Shiqi anymore. With a wave of his horsetail whisk, he quickly turned around and ran away from the bamboo forest.
"Weng …"
As the spirit bamboo that was shot swayed, a huge beehive appeared. On top of the beehive, fist-sized Green Wasps with striped patterns on their abdomens flew out of the beehive. Most of them rushed towards Zhang Guang, who was the closest.
Suddenly, Zhang Guang's flashing Fire Spirit Barrier was covered with Green Bamboo Wasps. The fist-sized Green Bamboo Wasps extended their stingers and fiercely stabbed Zhang Guang's Fire Spirit Barrier.
Zhang Guang waved his spirit saber in shock. Large flames appeared on the spirit saber, and the dozens of Green Bamboo Wasps that came into contact with the flames were all burned to death. They emitted a burnt smell as they fell to the ground. However, the tragic deaths of their own kind caused the other Green Bamboo Wasps to madly rush towards Zhang Guang. Using the spirit saber to release the Primordial Yang Fire consumed a lot of Spirit Qi. After a while, a layer of Green Bamboo Wasps' corpses fell to the ground, but the flames on the spirit saber gradually subsided.
"Ah, save, save me!" Not long after, Zhang Guang's panicked voice came from the Fire Spirit Barrier that was surrounded by the swarm of wasps.
"Ah!" Wang Yuan, who was running at the back of the group, also cried out in surprise. She used the Whirlwind Technique and sent dozens of Green Bamboo Wasps flying.
Lu Xiaotian was running at the front of the group. Only two Green Bamboo Wasps were lying on his Vajra Barrier and using their stingers to stab him. Lu Xiaotian directly used the short sword in his hand to shoot them down. When he looked back, Zhang Guang had already collapsed on the ground and was howling miserably. His heart suddenly trembled. The person who had designed this trap was really sinister.
Fortunately, the Green Bamboo Wasps chased for a while and realized that they were getting farther and farther away from the bamboo forest. They gave up the chase and returned to the bamboo forest.
"Stop!" Fan Qing, who was running at the front, suddenly waved his hand and said with a heavy expression, "Friends in front, come out. You have really put in a lot of effort to make such a big scene."
"As expected of the Bloody Massacre Daoist, Priest Fan. I can't even trick you like this." Seven or eight Qi Refinement Stage cultivators appeared one after another on the small mountain that Lu Xiaotian and the others had just passed by. Their cultivation levels were the same as theirs, ranging from the early-stage to the mid-stage Qi Refinement Stage. The leader of the group had a short stature, and his forehead was a little more protruding than a normal person's. However, his voice was very vigorous.
Fan Qing sneered. "So it's the Big Freak. I was wondering who would have the guts to plot against me. Since the grudge has already been formed, why don't we draw a line and have a fight now? "
"Yes, let's have a fight with them. I don't believe that these guys can do anything to us."
Luo Yuan was also furious that he had been ambushed for no reason. However, Lu Xiaotian could tell from Fan Qing's tone that he did not really want to have a conflict with the other party. Wang Yuan, Hunchback He, Wang Ping and the others were also not very interested.
Although Zheng Shiqi was burning with anger, his mind was still on Zhang Guang, who was surrounded by the Wasps. He was not in the mood to fight with the other party.
"Forget it, there won't be a winner anytime soon. I don't want to waste my time here with you. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Let's go!"
The Big Freak chuckled and waved his hand as he led the group to another fork in the road. In the blink of an eye, they had disappeared.
"The other party has already left. Let's kill our way back and save Brother Zhang." Zheng Shiqi said anxiously.
"What's the rush? We don't even know if the other party has really left." Hunchback He snorted. It was obvious that he did not want to provoke the group of berserk Green Bamboo Wasps.
"What do you mean? Now that Brother Zhang is in trouble, you're not going to save him? We are a group. If we can't even do this, I think we should just disband. "Zheng Shiqi glared at Hunchback He with red eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng, there's no need to be overly anxious. First of all, that group of people might indeed return. If it weren't for our quick reaction just now and breaking away from the entanglement of the Green Bamboo Wasps, we wouldn't have been able to escape. If we hadn't used up too much Yuan Qi, the Big Freak would not have let us go so easily. Now that we have not lost our strength, he is not willing to fight with us and waste his energy for nothing. Second of all, there are thousands of Green Bamboo Wasps. If we go back now, not only will we not be able to save Fellow Zhang, we will also make the situation worse. If we anger the Wasps, it will be even more difficult to deal with. "
Fan Qing saw that the group's morale was unstable and quickly explained.
"Then are we just going to watch Brother Zhang be tortured by the Wasps?" Zheng Shiqi knew that Fan Qing's words made sense, but he was still unwilling to accept it.
"The Green Bamboo Demon Wasps are wood-type demonic insects. Their stingers are especially sharp and have a certain amount of poison. However, it is not enough to kill them in a short period of time. Once they calm down, they will return to their nest. We will first patrol the surroundings to prevent the Big Freak from causing trouble again. Once the Wasps calm down, we will save Fellow Zhang. Also, I have a few Spirit Herbs here that can be used to refine a Blood Serum Pill. I just don't know if Little Friend Lu can refine it. Although the Green Bamboo Wasps' poison is not strong, Fellow Zhang has suffered too many attacks. If the poison accumulates in his body for too long, it will be a big problem. "
Fan Qing looked at Lu Xiaotian and said.
"Brother Brother Lu, I beg you. As long as you can save Brother Zhang, I will do anything Brother Brother Lu wants me to do." Zheng Shiqi looked at Lu Xiaotian and said.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, what do you think? Brother Zhang is a straightforward person. Although he is a bit rash, he is indeed a person worth befriending. "Luo Yuan also said.
This Fan Qing was able to make Luo Yuan, who had the same cultivation as him, become the leader. He was indeed quite capable. From the moment they were attacked until now, it could be said that he had not changed at all. Although Zhang Guang had made a big mistake, Wang Yuan, Hunchback He, and the others were unwilling to save him. As the leader, if he could not come up with a method to solve the problem, the members of the team would inevitably be disheartened. Now, Fan Qing had drawn everyone's attention to him. All he needed to do was give up a few Spirit Herbs to resolve this crisis. Moreover, he was also testing Lu Xiaotian's foundation. Lu Xiaotian thought in his heart and said indifferently.
"I also want to help him, but I don't have the recipe for the Blood Serum Pill. I don't know how to refine it."
"The reason I brought up the Blood Serum Pill is naturally because I have already prepared the recipe." Fan Qing smiled and extended his right hand. He had already taken out three Spirit Herbs and a piece of yellow paper from his storage bag. On the yellow paper was the recipe for the Blood Serum Pill.
"Elder Fan's preparations are really thorough. Since that is the case, I will give it a try."
In the cultivation world, Lu Xiaotian was used to seeing people deceive each other. Zhang Guang and Zheng Shiqi's friendship through adversity was quite admirable. Even if Fan Qing did not bring it up, he would have done it.
Thus, Lu Xiaotian did not refuse. In fact, he had prepared dozens of antidote Spirit Pills inside the barrier, including the Blood Serum Pill. Some were refined by him, and some were purchased before they left. They were all antidotes for common poisons in the outer regions of the Full Moon Mountain Range. Lu Xiaotian did not believe that the others in the team had not prepared one. They just did not want to take it out.
Fan Qing's words were conclusive, so he wanted to test the other party. He did not expect Fan Qing to be so well-prepared. However, not only did he have the recipe, but he also prepared Spirit Herbs. This was somewhat thought-provoking. It was not like killing people to gain more.
After Zheng Shiqi heard this, he repeatedly thanked Fan Qing. Soon, the team was divided into several groups. Fan Qing was in charge of dispatching, Lu Xiaotian was in charge of refining the pills, and the Luo siblings, Wang Yuan, and Hunchback He were in charge of guarding in different directions to avoid being tripped up by other teams.
