C172 Water wood snakes and wood lifting stone

Fang Yunlong sighed softly as he operated the Spiritual Fire Liquid, hiding his body even more. It was not that Fang Yunlong did not save him, but he was truly powerless.

It was likely that this yellow robed cultivator from Floating Cloud Valley was an extremely unfortunate person who had been sent to the Demonic Beast.

Under the siege of nearly a hundred level one middle stage fish-like Demonic Beast, even with Fang Yunlong's strength, if he wanted to escape, he would probably lose a layer of skin, not to mention this twelfth level Refinement Stage cultivator in front of him.

After persevering for a while, this Flowing Cloud Valley cultivator unwillingly let out a blood-curdling screech. He died before he had the ambition, and his body was turned into a sieve by countless water arrows. His body fell into the shoal of fish and instantly vanished into nothingness.

After a hearty meal, the school of fish rapidly swam forward and gradually disappeared into the distance. Fang Yunlong, who was sure that he was no longer in danger, reached out his hand and took out the storage pouch of the Flowing Cloud Valley's cultivator that had fallen into the water.

There weren't any magic tools in the storage pouch. This Flowing Cloud Valley cultivator's magic tools had already been destroyed by the shoal of fish in the battle just now. However, within the storage bag, there were quite a few medicinal pills and Spiritual Stone.

Fang Yunlong smiled slightly. Floating Cloud Valley was truly worthy of being a holy land for pill refining, and any Qi Condensation disciple would actually have two Qi Replenishing Pills on them.

Watching the intense battle, Fang Yunlong moved even more carefully, but his speed was not slow. Riding on the ice and fire carpet, he rapidly advanced.

After a while, Xiaoyun who was playing with the Spirit Beast Bead in Fang Yunlong's arms suddenly pulled Fang Yunlong by the collar and "Zhi Zhi Zhi" sounds out, and looked at Fang Yunlong with its two small eyes.

"There's treasure", Fang Yunlong was overjoyed, and revealed a sly smile.

The Proving Ground had already existed for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years. The six major sects of the Three Holy Grounds had only been in the Proving Ground for more than a hundred years, and most of them had been collecting medicinal herbs, but they had neglected the similarly important materials for artifact forging.

Those who entered the Proving Ground were all Qi Condensation disciples. They might be able to recognize a few medicinal herbs, but it was very difficult to recognize the materials of those ores.

Therefore, when Fang Yunlong entered the Proving Ground, he brought along the Xiaoyun with him in hopes of finding some rare heavenly materials.

Without hesitation, Fang Yunlong dived into the water according to the direction the Xiaoyun was pointing at. Fang Yunlong activated the Water Avoidance Spell and covered his head in spirit energy. Then, he slowly walked underwater at the Jade Wave Lake.

Looking at the beautiful scenery around him and the shoal of fish, Fang Yunlong unconsciously thought of the underwater world he once visited.

"Squeak, squeak." Amidst the defensive Shield, the Xiaoyun that was curiously admiring the beautiful scenery at the bottom of the lake, cried out once again. Fang Yunlong who had already interacted with the Xiaoyun immediately knew. Not far ahead was the location of the heavenly resources that the Xiaoyun had pointed out.

Fang Yunlong increased his speed and quickly arrived at the place where the Xiaoyun was pointing at, only to discover that there was a black crack that was several meters long and not more than a few feet wide. It seemed like the treasure was in this crevice, but he didn't know if it was dangerous or not.

"Where there is treasure, there is danger. The ancients truly do not look down on me." Fang Yunlong muttered to himself. Just now, Fang Yunlong had released the Spiritual Sense, and carefully probed it deep into the crevice, then carefully probed inside.

The crevice was about four hundred and fifty meters deep, and very quickly, Fang Yunlong's Spiritual Sense reached the bottom of the crevice. From there, Fang Yunlong could vaguely sense that there was a powerful Spiritual Strength. Presumably, it was a Demonic Beast that wasn't weak.

Fang Yunlong's concealed figure slowly descended into the crevice. Within the crevice, the color of the water was even darker. Fang Yunlong did not dare to light up with the sunlight stone so he could only rely on the Spiritual Sense to slowly descend.

When it approached the bottom of the crevice, a black Toward Fang Yunlong suddenly attacked. This Demonic Beast was not weak, even while was hiding his body, he could not hide from it. Seeing the black shadow coming at him, Fang Yunlong slightly shifted his body.

He quickly dodged a black shadow and landed at the bottom of the crevice, only then did he focus on the Demonic Beast.

A few meters away from Fang Yunlong, a huge snake was coiled there. The eyes of the two snakes on its watermelon sized head sparkled, and their tongues, which were several feet long, hissed loudly. The long snake tightly coiled around a one-foot tall tree trunk, glowing with a sparkling light.

"It's equivalent to a level two Demonic Beast, Water Wood Snake!" Fang Yunlong sighed in shock, then exclaimed in surprise: "Carrying wood stones!" It seemed that the greater the risk, the richer the harvest.

The Wood Lifting Stone was one of the Five Elements Stone's Wood Stones. It was similar to the Stone of Stones that Fang Yunlong had obtained before, and was a valuable ore used to increase the power of the Five Elements Magic Treasure. Such an extremely precious material actually appeared here.

Amongst the Five Elements, there was water and wood, such a unique Jade Wave Lake, after tens of thousands of years of nourishment, it raised up a piece of Wood Lifting Stone, but he never thought that he would encounter it today. It truly made Fang Yunlong overjoyed.

As for the Aquatic Wood Snake that was wrapped around the Wood Lifting Stone, Fang Yunlong was even more surprised. No matter whether it was the Heluo Sect Jade Slip or the Jade Slip that Fang Yunlong had obtained from the storage pouch of the Floating Cloud Valley's disciples, they were all certain that they were at the periphery of the Proving Ground.

There was simply no existence of Demonic Beast above the peak of the first level. According to many of the formation elders' explanations, the outer area was tightly connected to the spirit formation, just like how foundation establishment stage cultivators were unable to enter the Proving Ground, stage two and above Demonic Beast would not appear in the outer area.

It was possible that this block of lumber had attracted the Waterwood Snake's attention and allowed it to set up its nest here. The Aquatic Wood Snake was a wood attribute Demonic Beast that lived in water. A full body of impenetrable scales and armor was difficult to injure with normal magical equipment.

If it was a Qi Condensation cultivator, even if he had a top-grade magic tool, he wouldn't be able to cut through the scales. Under the nourishment of the Wood Lifting Stone, the Aquatic Wood Snake actually reached the peak of the Early Foundation Building Period, and probably entered it very soon.

Thinking about it, Fang Yunlong also felt relieved. Maybe only this level two Demonic Beast could be considered king in the Blue Wave Lake, where only level one Demonic Beast could be found.

However, how to obtain the Wood Lifting Stone was truly a difficult question. Living in the water, the Water Wood Snake would at least increase its power by 20% while being in the water, and being able to use 90% of its power was already quite good.

"After pondering for a long time, Fang Yunlong still did not have any good ideas. Forget it, wealth comes from danger. Let's just fight to the death with them and test the strength of the Heavenly Book Nine Transformations. " Fang Yunlong gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, preparing to set up a formation to take care of the Aquatic Wood Snake.

Unexpectedly, before Fang Yunlong could move, the Aquatic Wood Snake, which had been waiting for a long time, suddenly attacked. After testing Fang Yunlong, the Aquatic Wood Snake discovered that the person was in a dazed state, and ignored him.

He had decided to make the best use of his time to cultivate and try his best to achieve a breakthrough. However, he didn't expect that the person who had just arrived would release a murderous aura after being stunned for a while. The Aquatic Wood Snake was furious, it took the initiative to attack first, and many rattan trees flew towards the Toward Fang Yunlong viciously.
