Let's talk about Zhang Ling. At the same time, he also arrived at another swamp area with the same environment, tens of thousands of miles away from the mysterious blue-robed man.
He casually summoned a gust of breeze to disperse the poisonous mist within a few hundred feet ahead. What he saw was a swamp with patchy colors under his feet, along with many intertwined tree vines and withered grass.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is even richer here, almost catching up with the concentration of spiritual energy emitted by a middle-grade spiritual vein.
Legend has it that there was a top-grade spiritual vein hidden here in ancient times. Now it seems that the credibility is quite high.
Suddenly, Zhang Ling's eyes lit up, and with a flicker of his figure, he arrived next to a section of dead wood several feet long and wide. This section of dead wood was half-buried in the swamp, with a pile of colorful small mushrooms growing on it.
He immediately took out a jade box and collected all these colorful mushrooms.
This is a local specialty spiritual medicine, the Five-Colored Poison Mushroom, which belongs to the third-grade spiritual medicine and contains potent poison. It is quite valuable in the eyes of some cultivators.
Immediately afterward, Zhang Ling discovered several bright red small grasses not far away, which were also Red Jade Grasses with two to three hundred years of age, also a third-grade spiritual herb. And it just so happened that it could be used to解毒, or detoxify the Five-Colored Poison Mushroom.
Having some small gains just after entering, Zhang Ling also showed a smile. And in this moment, the poisonous mist that he had dispersed nearby quickly enveloped again.
Having arrived in this swamp area, the Seven-Colored Mirage Poison has a greater impact on the cultivator's divine consciousness.
He didn't delay any longer and immediately took out four spirit stones of different colors.
If there were cultivators nearby, they could sense the extremely pure and rich spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the four spirit stones with a little perception.
These are exactly the four top-grade spirit stones of earth, metal, fire, and water that he collected.
Calculating the time, he was actually a bit late in coming to the Green Shade Mountains. In another seven or eight days, the weakened poisonous mist here will return to its original intensity.
With a thought, he cast a spell towards each of the four top-grade spirit stones, and each of the four spirit stones emitted a pure stream of spiritual energy.
Zhang Ling immediately put away the four top-grade spirit stones again. At the same time, he took out an iron-blue disc engraved with runes.
This is the Spirit Stabilizing Disc. He plans to repeat the same trick, relying on the Spirit Stabilizing Disc, coupled with the spiritual power fluctuations of the top-grade spirit stones, to sense the possible existence of top-grade wood spirit stones here.
He had previously entered the Icefield to search for metal-attribute gold spirit stones, also using this method to sense.
At that time, he encountered many dangers and met the powerful Blood Demon Sanren. It was with the help of Blue Sparrow that he was able to ensure his safety.
And as a result, he obtained the Glazed Demon Body technique, as well as the top-grade gold spirit stone, and the Gold Devouring Beast.
Now, Blue Sparrow and the Gold Devouring Beast are still in slumber, and it is unknown when they will awaken.
While his thoughts were turning, Zhang Ling injected the four strands of pure spiritual energy into the Spirit Stabilizing Disc.
Suddenly, a layer of colorful spiritual light appeared on the Spirit Stabilizing Disc. These spiritual lights quickly intertwined and transformed, forming several dragon-shaped phantoms.
After a few breaths, the dragon shadows above disappeared, leaving only a blue-green dragon shadow. The dragon head turned in one direction, spitting out wisps of green light from its mouth.
Zhang Ling had a feeling, changed direction, and explored in the direction indicated by the dragon shadow.
Exploring in this way, a day and a night passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Ling explored a large area and had some gains. He found a lot of spiritual herbs, two of which were spiritual herbs that had reached a thousand years of age.
Moreover, he also surveyed more than a dozen small spiritual vein branches along the way. He carefully explored them all, and luckily discovered a small spiritual spring in a small middle-grade spiritual vein branch, obtaining a low-grade Spirit Eye Stone.
However, these spiritual vein branches cannot nurture top-grade spirit stones.
In fact, with these gains, the trip was not in vain, but Zhang Ling's face did not look much better. He came here not to search for spiritual herbs.
Looking at the Spirit Stabilizing Disc flashing with spiritual light in his hand, he sighed.
The greatest function of the Spirit Stabilizing Disc is to detect spiritual energy and find spiritual veins. He used the pure spiritual power of other top-grade spirit stones as a guide to drive this treasure and sense the changes in spiritual energy here, in order to find top-grade wood spirit stones.
This method is actually just a rough exploration direction, especially in this place where wood spiritual energy is strong, making it difficult to distinguish the source.
It seems that he needs to change his method. He doesn't have much time to search here for a long time.
If the period when the poisonous mist weakens passes, the dangers in the Green Shade Mountains will greatly increase. Although with his strength, he is not afraid of most dangers.
But he will not put himself in a dangerous situation.
Thinking in his heart, Zhang Ling stopped his escape light and threw the Spirit Stabilizing Disc in his hand. He also threw out the four top-grade wood spirit stones of metal, water, fire, and earth.
At the same time, the Nascent Soul puppet and the Xuanwu also appeared beside him.
"Protect me for a moment," he ordered, and began to cast spells.
He saw that the four top-grade spirit stones rotated rapidly around Zhang Ling, like a four-colored halo, surrounding him.
Zhang Ling's hand gestures changed, and the spiritual energy emitted by the top-grade spirit stones was drawn into his hand, turning into a ball of four-colored light.
At first, the four-colored light ball was very unstable, but after Zhang Ling spat out a mouthful of essence, the four-colored light ball stabilized and turned into a four-colored rune.
Immediately afterward, Zhang Ling's body shone with yellow light, and a two-inch-sized yellow Nascent Soul appeared above his head, which was his Nascent Soul spirit body.
The Nascent Soul clapped its small hands and held out a blue-green gourd in its hands. It was the wood element gourd among his re-refined natal magic treasure, the Five-Colored Treasure Gourd.
The gourd released a green light, and instantly absorbed the four-colored rune in his hand.
Suddenly, the wood element gourd was also covered with a layer of four-colored spiritual light.
At this moment, he was using a profound spirit-seeking technique: the Five Elements Spirit Seeking Technique. This technique was still a spirit-seeking method of the Five Elements Sect in the spirit world, recorded in the Five Aggregates Treasure Technique that Blue Sparrow passed on.
At least a Nascent Soul cultivator can cast it, and it must be used in conjunction with the Two Instruments Gourd.
This method relies on the Nascent Soul coming out of the body, separating a strand of divine consciousness, and integrating it into the Two Instruments Gourd. Using the Five Aggregates spiritual light as a medium, it can quickly perceive the changes in the five elements of spiritual energy in an area, so as to find treasures containing pure five elements of spiritual energy.
This method will consume some vitality, so Zhang Ling did not cast it at the beginning.
With a thought, the Nascent Soul spirit body spat out a white light and merged into the wood element gourd. The gourd rotated rapidly, releasing the Five Aggregates spiritual light inside, which is the cyan and white energy generated by the Two Instruments Gourd itself.
A cyan and white mist, under the control of Zhang Ling's divine consciousness, turned into a huge cyclone, and five-colored spiritual light flashed in the center of the suspension.
As these spiritual lights flashed, five-colored silk threads floated out. At a glance, it was quite gorgeous. These silk threads flew in all directions, disappearing and dissipating.
At the same time, Zhang Ling's Nascent Soul returned to his body, holding the wood element gourd in his hand, squinting his eyes, and sensing carefully.
After a moment, he hummed softly as if he had a feeling, "Go." He quickly put away the Xuanwu and the Nascent Soul puppet, and turned into a blue light and rushed out.
Before long, he appeared more than three hundred miles to the south. He re-sacrificed the wood element gourd and released a new wave of five-colored silk threads.
In this way, he quickly sensed the changes in the strength of wood spiritual energy in a large area nearby. However, it would consume some vitality, so Zhang Ling had to stop and rest for a while every few hours.
But the speed was at least several times faster than using the Spirit Stabilizing Disc just now. And it was more accurate.
