Chapter 259 Crystal Coffin! Blood Bead

The golden lotus elixir is an elixir refined from the golden lotus of the earth, which can enhance mental power.

If there was such a pill, most people would have eaten it all long ago, and there would be no chance of any leftovers.

Because the elixir is still an elixir, and as the mental power increases, the strength will also increase.

Only a fool would save such elixirs and not use them.

Zhang Diqi's brain is indeed not very bright, but he is not that stupid.

"My father said that my abilities are limited. It takes dozens of days to fully absorb a golden lotus elixir. During this period, no matter how much I take, it will be a waste. Therefore, this bottle of elixir is not used to enhance mental power. It is used to deal with injuries to the spiritual consciousness.”

Zhang Diqi explained.

Zhang Lingshan secretly thought that this guy was really rich and wasted everything he had.

There are many pills to restore mental strength. Is it necessary to use Golden Lotus Pill?

The advantage of using the Golden Lotus Pill to restore and treat mental power is that it is extremely efficient, but the disadvantage is that the effect of the Golden Lotus Pill in improving mental power is gone.

But Zhang Diqi’s father was not wrong either.

With Zhang Diqi's ability, it is indeed impossible to fully absorb the power of the Golden Lotus Pill in a short period of time.

After all, not everyone has the same intelligence as Zhang Lingshan.

Others can only rely on themselves to absorb the power of the medicine.

But besides himself, he can also rely on the panel.

"Are you going to exchange for some Qi-blood flames?"

Zhang Lingshan asked.

Zhang Diqi said: "I have eight left here, how about I exchange them for eight?"

"no."

Zhang Lingshan categorically rejected it. Although the qi and blood flames can be condensed at will, Zhang Diqi cannot be made to feel that his qi and blood flames are easy to obtain.

Otherwise, when he comes up with higher-level elixirs or treasures later, how can I settle the score for him?

"Two at most." Zhang Lingshan said.

Zhang Diqi hesitated for a moment and said: "Great uncle, I have already called you great uncle, just take care of this junior and give me three flowers."

"Two and a half."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Zhang Diqi handed over the golden lotus elixir.

Zhang Lingshan said: "The flame is still a bookkeeper. After you have completely refined the last one, just ask me for it."

"Okay!"

Zhang Diqi said excitedly: "Then let's find a cave to rest quickly. I happen to be refining the flame wholeheartedly."

"Um."

Zhang Lingshan nodded.

Pei Tong immediately held the star compass and began to look for a relatively safe direction.

soon.

The three of them arrived at the entrance of a dark and damp cave.

As soon as he entered the cave, a strong smell of blood hit his face, making people feel nauseous and vomiting.

"vomit!"

Zhang Diqi retched, and flames immediately appeared on his body to dissipate the fishy smell, and complained: "What the hell are you looking for? Is your compass useful?"

Pei Tong was also a little unsure, and said ashamedly: "Maybe it's because I don't have enough skills."

Zhang Lingshan said: "I think this place is just right. The smell of blood means there are monsters inside, and it's a good time to kill and eat the meat. Xiao Qi, you are burning all over, so you can go ahead and explore the road for lighting."

"Well."

Zhang Diqi glanced at Zhang Lingshan with resentment: "Great uncle, you also have energy and blood fire to illuminate."

"I'm just asking you if you want to go? Is Qilin'er from the Zhang family in Zhongzhou so cowardly?" Zhang Lingshan snorted.

Zhang Diqi scratched his neck and said stiffly: "Who are you? I just hate the smell..."

Just saying.

A streak of blood suddenly shot out and went straight to Zhang Diqi's neck.

Zhang Lingshan immediately reached out and grabbed it, and the flames in his hands spurted out, burning the blood into nothingness instantly.

"It's a blood arrow. Could it be the blood gecko's nest?"

Zhang Lingshan said in a deep voice.

Regarding the introduction of the blood gecko, he only learned about it from Zhang Diqi's picture album.

This thing likes dark and humid places and can spray blood arrows to hurt people. The blood arrows are highly poisonous.

Its body is a hundred times the size of an ordinary gecko, it crawls very fast, and it is a social creature.

Once you find one blood gecko, it means there are hundreds of blood geckos nearby.

This cave looks really big, and it is more than enough to hide a hundred blood geckos.

"The lair of the blood gecko..."

Pei Tong's face instantly turned pale, and he said tremblingly: "If we are surrounded by them and form a network of blood arrows, there will be no way to escape. Brother Shan, let's leave. It's because I'm not strong enough and I miscalculated the place."

"No."

Zhang Lingshan smiled: "The monsters have been hiding in the past few days, which has made me very hungry. This nest is just the right place for me to replenish some food. You stand here and don't move. I will cover you with the life and death bell and wait for me." Come out after processing."

With that said, he summoned the Life and Death Bell from the bag space and firmly covered Pei Tong underneath to protect him.

Then he released the corpse monkey from the spirit beast bag and blessed him with a burst of vitality.

The corpse monkey jumped around excitedly.

Uh-huh.

Zhang Lingshan released another flame, completely igniting the corpse monkey.

This corpse monkey was still a powerful character on the first level, but on the second level, it was too much of a waste. Zhang Lingshan had long wanted to deal with it.

Anyway, it is just a dead monkey that has not been raised well. Once you don't make it angry, it will start to make trouble and eat its master. It has a bad temper and is ugly. Keeping it is a waste of space in the spirit beast bag.

Therefore, in order to let this waste use its residual heat, Zhang Lingshan lit it as a beacon for activity.

Not only can it attract the blood gecko's attention, but it can also illuminate itself, killing two birds with one stone.

"Chirp chirp!"

The dead monkey screamed, with both the excitement of absorbing vitality and the pain of being burned by the flames.

Under this stimulation, it burst out with unprecedented speed, tumbling and jumping in the cave crazily.

Puff puff puff!

Several blood arrows immediately shot towards it.

Zhang Lingshan saw that the mountain wall was covered with dense blood geckos, and shouted: "Zhang Diqi, you go to the left, and leave the right to me."

"Okay! Let these beasts see the power of our blood and fire."

Zhang Diqi shouted loudly, and a long flame spurted out of his mouth, spraying it towards the wall like a flamethrower.

Although blood geckos can also spurt blood arrows from their mouths, they cannot be controlled after the blood arrows they spurt out leave the body.

And their blood arrows evaporated in an instant when they encountered flames.

At this moment, it was as if they had met their nemesis and were chased by Zhang Diqi.

"Squeak!"

"Squeak!"

The panicked and strange cries echoed throughout the cave, making people tremble.

Zhang Diqi's mental strength was not strong to begin with, and he was affected all of a sudden. The speed of his fire-breathing slowed down a little, and the remaining blood geckos immediately found an opportunity and fled to the cave deeper inside.

As for the geckos on Zhang Lingshan's side, he cut and burned them all, and put the bodies into the storage bag.

These are all nutrients, which cannot be wasted.

When he finished, he saw Zhang Diqi dejectedly saying: "Granduncle, I let them all run away and get into the cave inside."

Zhang Lingshan said: "It's okay, you can rest here, I will go in and clear them out. If you find any escaped, you can help me deal with the aftermath, but don't burn them into charcoal, I still have to make a midnight snack."

As he said that, he sent out another stream of life from his right hand, which fell on the corpse monkey that was not yet dead.

The corpse monkey immediately became excited and started jumping again, and was forced into the cave by Zhang Lingshan to illuminate.

This deeper cave needs to go through a narrow passage.

And on the walls of the passage, there are small holes drilled out.

As soon as the corpse monkey entered, blood arrows spurted out from the small holes, instantly submerging it.

Even though there were still flames on its body, it could not withstand the large number of blood arrows.

In the blink of an eye, the corpse monkey turned into a pool of blood, and several blood geckos immediately came forward and began to suck the blood.

Swish!

Zhang Lingshan held the Evil King Knife and cut the blood geckos into several pieces with one knife.

Without waiting for the other blood geckos to react, he used the Cloud Sweeping Method to run out, and the flames all over his body scattered, mixed with the cutting artistic conception inspired by the Evil King Knife, and instantly killed all the blood geckos in this passage.

When he walked out of the passage, he suddenly saw a big palace in front of him.

In the middle of the palace, there was a crystal coffin.

The blood geckos stood around the crystal coffin, turning their heads to look at Zhang Lingshan, but did not attack, just looking at him strangely and quietly.

Zhang Lingshan's heart trembled.

In fact, even if the blood geckos of these people came up together, they would not pose any threat to him.

However, the crystal coffin made Zhang Lingshan feel an invincible force.

He had a feeling that if he fought here and disturbed the things in the crystal coffin, he might die.

The blood geckos of these people must have the same idea.

So everyone did not move, reaching a strange balance.

But Zhang Lingshan was very curious about what was in the crystal coffin.

So he walked forward slowly.

Seeing him approaching, the geckos of the people on the road immediately dodged away. Some blood geckos showed fear in their eyes, but some showed anger, as if they were angry that Zhang Lingshan approached and disturbed the crystal coffin.

Zhang Lingshan didn't care whether they were angry or not. Since he had come here, if he didn't find out the truth, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

Anyway, as long as he didn't do it, these blood geckos wouldn't dare to touch him.

So let alone getting close to the crystal coffin to see what was going on, even if he was just walking around in circles in this hall, these blood geckos wouldn't dare to say a word of criticism.

Soon, Zhang Lingshan walked to the side of the crystal coffin.

What came into view was a pair of straight, slender, pink and white legs. Just by looking at this pair of legs, one could imagine how graceful and beautiful the owner of these legs was.

However.

When Zhang Lingshan continued to look up, he was surprised to find that the part above the legs was not a beautiful girl.

Instead, it was the body and head of half a blood gecko!

‘What the hell? ’

Zhang Lingshan’s heart skipped a beat, his scalp was a little numb, and he instinctively couldn’t accept the scene in front of him.

If you are a human, then be a human properly.

If you are a blood gecko, then be a complete blood gecko.

But half human and half blood gecko, no matter how you look at it, it is awkward, even more awkward than the tiger-headed eagle monster he had seen.

After all, monsters are ugly and ferocious. With an ugly and ferocious head, they are still ugly and ferocious monsters.

But this thing, it forcefully glues extreme beauty and extreme ugliness together, making people feel sick.

Zhang Lingshan immediately retracted his gaze, no longer looking at it, and turned to look at the oldest of these blood geckos.

The reason why he could tell that it was the oldest was because this guy had very sharp eyes and was smarter than the other blood geckos.

"Squeak, squeak."

The old blood gecko called in a low voice, then walked through the blood geckos and came to Zhang Lingshan.

He held a large blood-red round bead in both hands, raised it up respectfully, and placed it in front of Zhang Lingshan.

Zhang Lingshan glanced at the old blood gecko and roughly knew what it meant.

It seemed to say: "We have presented the treasure to you. Please leave and don't disturb our goddess."

Of course, calling it a goddess was Zhang Lingshan's own guess, after all, those legs were indeed the legs of a girl.

And these blood geckos were respectful to the creature and surrounded it to protect it.

It was reasonable to say that it was their god.

After receiving the blood bead, Zhang Lingshan slowly retreated into the passage, and saw that the blood geckos all breathed a sigh of relief, and then some of them formed a pattern around the crystal coffin.

The rest of the blood geckos guarded the entrance of the passage.

Among them was the old blood gecko, who saw that Zhang Lingshan had not left yet, and kept bowing to Zhang Lingshan.

Zhang Lingshan thought that it was better to do less than more, so he completely withdrew from the passage.

The old blood gecko immediately led people into the passage, and suddenly a ball of sticky blood spurted out of his mouth, sealing the entrance of the passage and completely isolating the connection between the hall and the cave outside.

"What's the situation, great uncle, you didn't kill them all?"

Zhang Diqi happened to see the old blood gecko, and couldn't help asking in surprise.

Zhang Lingshan said: "It is better to resolve the grievances than to make them, and forgive others when you can."

"..."

Zhang Diqi was speechless.

He found that the elders liked to say this, but sometimes they did things more drastically than anyone else.

The reason why he didn't do it drastically and said this to save his face was not that he didn't want to do it drastically, but because he didn't have the ability to do it drastically.

Obviously, there must be monsters in this cave that the great uncle couldn't deal with, so the great uncle took the initiative to withdraw.

However, the great uncle was embarrassed to say it when it was embarrassing, and he, Zhang Diqi, certainly wouldn't say it to make himself unhappy.

Do you really think he, Zhang Diqi, is a fool?

‘What exactly is this blood bead and how to use it? It’s not written in Zhang Diqi’s picture book. There is also no introduction to the crystal coffin guarded by the blood gecko. ’

Zhang Lingshan sighed in his heart.

This blood bead is obviously a top-grade treasure, but he can’t use it, and the blood gecko can’t speak.

So he can only put the blood bead into the bag space helplessly and leave it for later slowly to comprehend.

As for why it is not recorded in Zhang Diqi’s picture book.

The reason is very simple.

The picture book records the intelligence of the Zhang family in Zhongzhou for many years, of course, it can only record what they know.

No one has taken the blood bead out in the past, and no one has seen the crystal coffin, so they naturally have no way of knowing.

“Those blood geckos have sealed themselves in there and can’t affect us. Then clean up this cave and stay here tonight.”

Zhang Lingshan put away the life and death bell and said to Pei Tong and Zhang Diqi.

The two immediately took action and found that there were dozens of human corpses in the corner of the cave.

Next to the corpses were the storage bags they left behind.

Some of the storage bags were quite old, and the corpses had dried up.

Some of the corpses were fresh.

Obviously, the dried corpses and old storage bags were all from the candidates who had entered the trial ground before.

And the fresh ones were the unlucky ones who had entered the trial ground with them.

Pei Tong couldn't help but feel scared.

If he hadn't followed Zhang Lingshan this time, if he had come in alone, he would probably have become one of those corpses.

"This is my Zhang family's storage bag! And there's more than one!"

Zhang Diqi suddenly shouted, angrily: "These damn guys, I'm going to kill them all!"

"Don't get excited." Zhang Lingshan patted his shoulder and said: "The dead can't be resurrected. If you really want revenge, wait until you become stronger. Right now, you can't afford to offend the big monster inside."

"There's still a big monster?" Pei Tong said in surprise.

Zhang Lingshan said: "Yes. But the situation of the big monster is quite strange. As long as we don't disturb him, he won't attack us."

"It's okay."

Pei Tong breathed a sigh of relief.

The blood gecko is already very difficult to deal with, and their big monster leader must be even more terrifying.

Why did he find this damn place?

I was looking for a safe place with opportunities.

But then again.

If the big monster doesn't take action, after the blood gecko in the cave outside is killed, this place is indeed very safe.

And opportunities, so many storage bags, aren't they opportunities?

That is to say, he didn't make a mistake in his search, and his method of tracking is still very reliable.

If Zhang Lingshan knew Pei Tong's thoughts, he would definitely tell him that it is more than reliable.

Don't mention these storage bags, just that blood bead is priceless.

Although I don't know how to use the blood bead, Zhang Lingshan already feels that the layers of blood rhythm contained in it are infinitely useful!

In the future, you only need to take it out and reflect on it from time to time, and your qi and blood will improve in an orderly manner.
