In a Mountain Hollow, Song Changsheng casually cut off the rhizome of a Second-Tier Low-Grade [Heaven Heart Grass] and put it into Universe Bag, and then continued to move forward.

This was the third day since he left Medicine Garden. The journey was eerily peaceful. Not to mention the shadow of a human being, he didn't even see a rabbit.

He estimated that there might be no animals at all in this space, otherwise these spirit medicine would never grow so well in the wild.

"There are only about ten hours left, and there is still a distance of about three hundred miles. It seems that I have to speed up." Song Changsheng silently calculated the time in his heart and murmured softly.

Although this world is no different from the daytime in the outside world, the sky is gray. There is no existence of Sun, Moon, and Stars at all, and there is no night. It is always daytime.

Therefore, Song Changsheng can only roughly estimate that there are still about ten hours left.

Although at his speed, the distance of three hundred miles would not even take an hour, but these spirit medicine do take a lot of time along the way, and if there is any further delay, he may not be able to catch up with the competition for [Stalactite Spirit Liquid].

Thinking of this, Song Changsheng increased his speed a lot, and he didn't stop except for the second-order spirit medicine along the way.

Suddenly, Song Changsheng's footsteps suddenly stopped. He sniffed lightly with his nose a few times and said with some confusion, "What is so fragrant? Is it some kind of strange spirit medicine?"

Song Changsheng's curiosity was immediately aroused. After determining the source of the scent, he immediately used Movement Method and rushed over.

After crossing a pile of rocks, the scent became more and more obvious, making Song Changsheng feel that the fatigue on his body had faded a lot, which made him sure that the thing in front of him must be some kind of precious Spirit Plant. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

After rushing for about a quarter of an hour, Song Changsheng finally saw a purple-pink spirit flower on a hillside. It was no more than two feet long, with one flower and two leaves, and a slender rhizome, swaying gently in the wind.

I don't know why, but the moment he saw this flower, a deep desire emerged in his mind, just like a hungry wolf seeing a big fat sheep after being hungry for a long time.

"What is this that can make me feel like this?" Song Changsheng frowned. He had never heard of such a strange spiritual flower.

He spread out his Divine Sense, and after making sure there was no danger, he slowly approached the spirit flower. Although his eyes were always staring at the spirit flower, he kept holding the magic weapon in his hand. If anything happened, he could quickly counterattack.

But his vigilance seemed to be a bit unnecessary. He was already within ten feet of the spirit flower, and he didn't notice anything wrong.

"It seems I'm being paranoid." Song Changsheng relaxed a little. When seeing unknown things, he would habitually maintain a high level of vigilance. After all, be careful with the Wannian Ship.

He reached out and uprooted the spirit flower. At this time, Song Changsheng noticed something was wrong. The soil was too loose!

He immediately wanted to pull away and retreat, but the next moment a sudden change occurred. A black bead flew out from nowhere and exploded above Song Changsheng's head, forming a cloud of foul-smelling black smoke.

Song Changsheng's face changed drastically, and he quickly picked up a [Spirit Shield Technique] to isolate the black smoke. Then he took out Treasure Gourd and pointed it at the black smoke, absorbing it all into the gourd.

"Who are you?" Song Changsheng shouted loudly.

"Swish, swish, swish"

I saw three figures in a bush in the distance, carrying the majestic Spiritual Power and rushing towards Song Changsheng.

Song Changsheng raised his sword eyebrows and quickly identified the identities of the people. They were all Earth Fire Sect, and Chang Tianhua was also among them.

The three of them formed a "pin" shape to surround Song Changsheng, but they did not rush to take action.

"You brat, I finally let this Young Master catch you." Chang Tianhua held Folding Fan in his hand and looked at Song Changsheng with hatred in his eyes.

"How long have you been following me?" Although he was surrounded by them, Song Changsheng did not panic and asked with a frown.

"Haha, for your sake, this Young Master didn't even go to the sect Medicine Garden. We followed you when you left Medicine Garden." Chang Tianhua said with some pride.

Song Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly. He originally thought that Chang Tianhua would attack him while fighting for [Stalactite Spirit Liquid]. After all, that moment was the most chaotic.

But he didn't expect that he would even ignore the sect's mission and follow him all the way.

After looking around, Song Changsheng let out a sigh, looked at a skinny middle-aged man and said, "Aren't you Zhang Zhiyuan? I didn't expect that even Earth Fire Sect Senior Disciple Brother would go out to kill me. Are you giving up the fight for [Stalactite Spirit Liquid]?"

Earth Fire Sect There are not many people who can remember Song Changsheng. This Zhang Zhiyuan happens to be one, and he is also one of the most promising candidates to win [Stalactite Spirit Liquid] this time.

Still wasting this time with him is no different from giving up.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked a little ugly and bit his lip without speaking.

Song Changsheng suddenly realized, it seems that this person is not willing.

He turned his attention to the last person. He was covered in black robes and his face could not be seen clearly. The aura he exuded was much stronger than that of Chang Tianhua, the second generation ancestor. It seemed that he was not mediocre.

"Damn, you're still in the mood to care about this at this time, do it!" Chang Tianhua shouted loudly, and the spell that the several people had been brewing for a long time suddenly enveloped Song Changsheng.

"Yu!"

Song Changsheng also instantly used [Water Element Shield] to block in front of him, and then quickly picked up the spell.

"[Water Dragon's Roar]"

A lifelike Flood Dragon appeared behind Song Changsheng and erupted into a shocking roar. The terrifying sound waves shocked the spiritual energy of several people.

"[Heaven Sun Finger]"

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Song Changsheng Fingers Together Like a Sword thrust straight into Chang Tianhua's head with wisps of red light.

Chang Tianhua was shocked by the sound wave, and his consciousness was still unclear. He couldn't avoid this finger at all.

At the critical moment, Zhang Zhiyuan moved in front of him and punched out.

Sword Finger collided with his fist, and a roar broke out. Song Changsheng took a step back, and Zhang Zhiyuan took three steps back to stop the decline.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at the fingerprints left on his fist, with a shock in his eyes. He is Dual Cultivation of Body and Magic. His physical strength is comparable to Law Artifact and his strength is incomparable, but he is not as strong as Song Changsheng?

"Qiang"

A white light flashed around Black Robe Person's waist. Song Changsheng flicked his fingers and hit Treasure Gourd. Sparks burst out and a tiger-headed sword flew backwards.

"[Earth Fire Burning Heart]"

Chang Tianhua There was a flash of fire in his eyes, and a black flame suddenly shot out from his mouth, and the place where it passed was a scorched earth.

Song Changsheng raised his eyebrows, it turned out to be Secret Art, the direct descendant of the Earth Fire Sect. It seems that Chang Tianhua is not as useless as he thought.

"You Earth Fire Sect are good at using fire, but I am good at controlling fire. Today we will see which one is stronger and which one is weaker." Song Changsheng laughed loudly and pointed lightly with his right hand.

The pitch-black Earth Fire actually rolled back. There was a trace of panic in Chang Tianhua's eyes, and he was forced to retreat in embarrassment.

"Don't be so arrogant."

Zhang Zhiyuan Although he was unhappy with Chang Tianhua, he couldn't see him die here, so he immediately used a big ax to chop him down vertically, with extraordinary power.

Black Robe Person also used the big sword again. The two of them flanked Song Changsheng on the left and right, blocking all Song Changsheng's escape routes.

Song Changsheng's eyes condensed, and he immediately activated Array in his body. Yin and Yang Qi immediately turned into a black and white Tai Chi Diagram, standing in front of him, with a broadsword and ax chopping on it, preventing him from advancing even an inch.

"What kind of spell is this?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked in surprise.

"The unique Secret Art can't cover up the rumors." Song Changsheng pointed a finger, and suddenly there was a wave of water in front of him, forming two lifelike Flood Dragon, one on the left and one on the right, killing the two people.

Black Robe Person and Zhang Zhiyuan were defeated by Flood Dragon's attacks. Just when Song Changsheng was about to defeat the enemy with one blow, his Dantian and meridians suddenly felt stinging, and Spiritual Power was unable to follow up.

The two took advantage of the situation to defeat Flood Dragon, and struck out in unison.

Song Changsheng As if struck by lightning, he immediately flew backwards and hit the ground heavily.

"What's going on?" Song Changsheng was shocked and angry. He felt that there was a strange force flowing in his meridians, which actually locked his Spiritual Power.

"Hahaha, you bastard, you didn't expect it. Are you satisfied with the gift that I, Young Master, have prepared for you?" Chang Tianhua jumped out of nowhere and said with a sinister smile.

"When did you poison me?" Song Changsheng asked in a deep voice, secretly trying to force the poison out.

"Poison? Tsk, tsk, tsk, you think I, Young Master, would use such low-level methods, Song Changsheng, you underestimate me, Young Master."

"Isn't it poisoning?" Song Changsheng was also wondering in his heart. If it was poisoning, he would definitely be aware of it.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. "That spiritual flower?"

"Oh, I just realized it. In order to lure you into taking the bait, this Young Master took out all the precious [Fragrance-Condensing Flower]. You are already proud enough." Chang Tianhua said with his nostrils pointing upward.

Song Changsheng now understood everything. The other party did not poison him at all, but found another way to cause his current passive situation.

[Fragrance-Condensing Flower] is a strange flower that can prevent monk Qi Deviation. You only need to smell its fragrance for a long time. When Qi Deviation Spiritual Power riots, the fragrance inhaled in the body will transform into a magical force to lock Spiritual Power and prevent it from rioting.

Overall, this is indeed not dangerous and may even be beneficial, so Song Changsheng did not perceive the threat.

It was indeed fine at first, but the bad thing was the battle just now. The Spiritual Power in his body was consumed too quickly, and the aroma he inhaled immediately locked his Spiritual Power.

This is really not something that ordinary people can think of. Even Song Changsheng has to admit that this trap is very cleverly designed.

"You must not have thought of this yourself. How can you have that kind of brain?" Song Changsheng sneered.

"You bastard, I'm going to kill you." Chang Tianhua jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"This Young Master will make your life worse than death."

He picked up a spell in his hand, and once again spurted out a ball of dark flames from his mouth and enveloped Song Changsheng...
