Chapter 22 Black Mysterious Heavy Snake
On a hillside somewhere dozens of miles away from Guyang City.
At this time, there was a little bit of silver light floating in the air.
Under these silver lights, an osmanthus tree about three meters high is blooming with silver osmanthus flowers, exuding a fresh fragrance.
The surrounding spiritual energy continued to gather towards this silver osmanthus tree, gradually forming small spiritual energy vortexes around it.
When Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan arrived here, they saw such a scene.
Jiang Chengxuan didn't have much reaction.
After all, he didn't know what the silver osmanthus tree in front of him was, but he just instinctively felt that there was something extraordinary about it.
But Shen Ruyan next to him had a look of shock on his face and couldn't help blurting out:
"This is the spiritual root of heaven and earth!"
"The spiritual roots of heaven and earth?"
A trace of astonishment appeared on Jiang Chengxuan's face.
The so-called spiritual roots of heaven and earth refer to a type of spiritual plants that are born from the spiritual destiny of heaven and earth.
They generally have extraordinary special effects.
Some fruits can help people achieve breakthroughs in cultivation, some can allow people to enter a certain state of enlightenment, and some have extremely powerful healing abilities.
Legend has it that in the most ancient times, there was a theory of innateness and nurture regarding spiritual roots.
Some of the fruits they bear are said to be so magical that just eating one of them can instantly make a mortal ascend to immortality.
Although Jiang Chengxuan had been in this world of immortality for more than a hundred years, he didn't know much about spiritual roots. He only knew that it was a very precious thing.
Unexpectedly, the so-called spiritual root would appear in front of him now.
This was beyond his expectation.
At this time, Shen Ruyan continued:
"Yes, if my guess is correct, this spiritual root should be the silver osmanthus tree. It is said that the silver osmanthus fruit produced by it has the effect of calming the mind and preventing the invasion of inner demons.
Of course, this is only at its lower level.
It is said that the silver osmanthus fruits produced by silver osmanthus trees of the fourth level and above have the effect of repairing damage to the soul and strengthening the soul. They are truly rare and unique treasures. "
Speaking of this, Shen Ruyan seemed to have noticed something, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
"No, this silver osmanthus tree seems to be about to be promoted to the second level of spiritual root!
And this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is..."
boom!
Before Shen Ruyan could finish speaking, the ground beneath their feet suddenly burst open.
Immediately afterwards, a giant python that was completely black, covered with a layer of horny scales, nearly ten meters long, and had two small protrusions on its head suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan!
"This is it? The second-order high-grade monster, the Black Mysterious Heavy Snake!"
Shen Ruyan's expression changed again.
At this moment, she seemed to have figured out a lot of things, and her expression suddenly became very solemn.
"Elder Jiang, be careful. If my guess is correct, those previous monsters should have been driven by this Black Mysterious Serpent.
The real purpose of this demon here is probably to occupy a second-level spiritual vein that will be born from the silver osmanthus tree. "
"What? Second-level spiritual veins?"
Suddenly hearing Shen Ruyan's words, Jiang Chengxuan's face couldn't help but change.
As a former casual cultivator, he knew very well how valuable a spiritual vein was.
It is no exaggeration to say that spiritual veins are the roots of monks.
Without spiritual veins, the practice of monks like them would be completely unsustainable.
What's more, it's a second-level spiritual vein, which is enough to cause several or even dozens of foundation-building families to compete for it.
Even for a Zifu Immortal Clan like the Shen Clan, a second-level spiritual vein would never be ignored.
No wonder it was so hostile to Guyang City, which was dozens of miles away.
And after noticing the arrival of the monks in the foundation building stage, he immediately ordered his subordinates to launch an attack.
The reason is probably to eliminate these hidden dangers.
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.
This black mysterious heavy snake obviously couldn't bear the existence of such a human city not far from its territory.
At this time, it has obviously regarded this place as its private property.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, Heixuanzhong Snake let out a roar.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt their bodies sink inexplicably.
It was as if he was carrying hundreds of thousands of kilograms of stuff on his back, and he almost fell out of the air.
"careful!"
The Sancai Spiritual Shield was immediately sacrificed by Shen Ruyan.
The entire shield instantly enlarged, directly protecting her and Jiang Chengxuan behind them.
Just hearing a roar, the red, yellow, and blue lights on the Sancai Spiritual Shield flashed violently.
Immediately afterwards, the entire shield was thrown out.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan's reactions were both slow.
The moment Sancai's spiritual shield was thrown away, the two of them immediately moved away from each other, one to the left and the other to the right.
boom!
The moment the two people disappeared, a black snake tail like a hill suddenly struck where they were standing, sucking out the air with a series of sonic booms.
Shen Ruyan, who dodged to the right, immediately warned loudly: "Be careful of its innate ability, the gravity field. Don't be hit by its ability again, otherwise your life may be in danger."
Gravity field?
Jiang Chengxuan's heart suddenly shivered.
Just now, he had a deep memory of the feeling of being pressed down by something weighing hundreds or thousands of kilograms.
At that time, it was difficult for him to even move, let alone fight back.
Fortunately, Shen Ruyan had that second-level defensive magic weapon.
Otherwise, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured.
It seems that after this incident, he must find a way to get a defensive magic weapon as soon as possible.
Otherwise, there is really no sense of security.
"Roar!"
At this time, the black Xuan heavy snake seemed to be eyeing Shen Ruyan.
I saw its snake tail constantly whipping Shen Ruyan in the air, and there were sharp blades like black light flying towards Shen Ruyan from its mouth.
Jiang Chengxuan on the other side couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
The strength of this second-level superior monster beast is really not comparable to that of ordinary second-level monster beasts.
At least Jiang Chengxuan had no confidence that he could defeat the black Xuan heavy snake.
Thanks to Shen Ruyan's many treasures and means, she was able to withstand the continuous attacks of the second-level superior black and black heavy snake.
If it were me, I would have turned around and fled.
But even so, Shen Ruyan's situation is not optimistic.
According to the current situation, Shen Ruyan can only hold on for a while at most.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chengxuan finally stopped hesitating.
He immediately sent a voice message to Shen Ruyan: "Elder Ruyan, I will try to control it for a moment, and you will take advantage of that time to try to injure or even kill it."
