Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 935: Taking the Void God Grass
Soul-nourishing Blood Lotus, seventh-grade holy medicine! !
It has a great bottleneck-lifting effect on spiritual saints!
Ye Xuan's mental power had not improved for a long time. After advancing to the holy realm, his mental power also reached a bottleneck.

"Oh?" Bingyu was delighted. "What a coincidence? That's perfect. Looks like we still have to venture into the depths of the Falling Phoenix Valley!"

"Hmm." Ye Xuan calmed down his agitated mood and said thoughtfully, "From the records in this jade slip, the place where the Soul-Nourishing Blood Lotus is located is quite dangerous. There are at least two Great Saint Realm monster beasts guarding it. If we encounter them, it will be troublesome... However, there are only two Great Saint Realm monster beasts guarding the seventh-grade holy medicine. The difficulty of obtaining the medicine is already incredibly simple."

In the martial arts world, the guardian monsters of various elixirs are generally of levels corresponding to or even higher than the elixirs. The Soul-Nourishing Blood Lotus is a seventh-grade holy medicine, and it should be guarded by a perfect monster beast at the Great Sage level. However, the Soul-Nourishing Blood Lotus in the Fallen Phoenix Valley is only guarded by two monster beasts that are barely at the Great Sage level. This is truly unbelievable. Ye Xuan even couldn't help but doubt whether the information in the jade slip was false. Of course, he also secretly prayed that it must be true.

"Only two great saint-level demon beasts guarding it?" Bingyu also showed a trace of doubt in her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she said decisively, "No matter what, whether it is true or not, we will know when we go to see it! It would be better if it is true. Then we will work hard and maybe we can really get this soul-nourishing blood lotus!"

Ye Xuan said: "Okay, then after we find the Xushen Grass tomorrow, we will go look for the Soul-Nourishing Blood Lotus!"

"..."

Ye Xuan and his friends did not hide their conversation, so all the Tie brothers in the cave heard it clearly. Tie Dan did not react much at this moment, but Tie Ke was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, muttering:
“Soul-nourishing Blood Lotus… There is actually such a legendary holy medicine in the Fallen Phoenix Valley…”

"Are they really going? That's crazy! Then..."

Tie Ke's mind raced, and the look in his eyes kept changing, as if he was hesitating about something. Finally, he slowly became firm, and it was unknown what decision he made.

……

The next day, noon.

Thanks to the miraculous effect of the Great Blood Pill, Tie Ke's injuries recovered as expected, and the two brothers did not, or perhaps did not dare to, go back on their word, and they took Ye Xuan and others and spent more than three hours to the edge of a cliff.

This was the real Fallen Phoenix Valley, a huge rift valley with no visible edge or bottom. Everything outside the rift valley was considered the "outskirts", while inside the rift valley was the "depths" that few dared to go to.

"The Xushen Grass... is here?"

Ye Xuan looked at the rift in front of him that seemed like a bottomless abyss, frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt appeared in his tone. Rumor has it that it is extremely dangerous down there, and even a great sage would not dare to go down there casually. How could Tie Ke, a great sage, actually go down there?
Tie Ke saw the suspicion of Ye Xuan and the others, and hurriedly explained: "It is here... However, there is a natural cave more than 200 feet below here, and the Xushen Grass is inside."

He pointed to an inconspicuous stone nearby and continued, "That was the mark I made when I left last time. Tiedan and I passed by here at the time, and it happened to be the time when the fragrance of the Xushen grass was the strongest. We smelled the fragrance and thought it was extraordinary, so we tentatively searched for a while below. We didn't expect to find it, but before we got close, we alarmed the demon mountain crocodile inside, and it was forced to escape. But when I left, my divine sense scanned the spiritual medicine inside, it was definitely Xushen grass, and there were three of them!"

Ye Xuan carefully looked at the rock that Tie Ke pointed out, and found that there was indeed a very inconspicuous small mark at its root. He also probed downwards with his mind, and indeed found a cave more than 200 feet below. However, because he was worried about alarming the monster inside, he did not explore it for the time being, but he could already faintly feel that there was indeed a strong monster breath inside. Moreover, I don't know if it was because of Tie Ke's reminder, he always felt that there seemed to be a faint medicinal fragrance in the air. From these, it can be seen that what Tie Ke said should be true.

Ye Xuan turned his head and looked at Bing Yu and said, "It should be correct. Shall we go down now?"

Bingyu had already been impatient for a long time, and nodded when she heard this: "Of course! Let's go!!"

Ye Xuan nodded slightly to Tianyin Xuannv beside him, then turned to the Tie brothers and said, "Your mission is completed, please do as you please."

The three of them took a step forward at the same time, and instantly disappeared over the edge of the cliff, falling straight down.

……

After the three of them fell a hundred feet, they began to slow down their falling speed. After slowly descending more than a hundred feet, an irregular circular cave about three feet in size appeared in their sight.

At this point, the medicinal fragrance is already very obvious. Although it is not certain whether it is Xushen Grass, it can be concluded that the grade is not low. At the same time, the powerful aura of monsters in the cave is also equally obvious.

"Roar!!"

A roar suddenly came from the cave. The monster in the cave was very alert. Ye Xuan and his companions had been very careful, but they were still discovered by it so quickly. However, this was actually the reason why Ye Xuan and his companions did not try their best to hide. Otherwise, if Ye Xuan had used the space barrier, he might not have been discovered even if he reached the cave entrance.

Along with the roar, an aura full of hostility and tyranny burst out, and Ye Xuan and the others also felt it clearly - it was a demon beast that had reached the perfect holy realm.

After Ye Xuan confirmed it, he felt relieved because it was still within his control.

"Hmm?" While thinking, Ye Xuan suddenly raised his eyebrows, pulled Tianyin Xuannv beside him with his left hand, and reminded Bingyu at the same time, "Be careful! Retreat!"

As he spoke, Bingyu had already noticed it, and the three of them flew back.

The next moment they retreated, there was a loud bang from the mountain wall next to them, countless pieces of rubble exploded, and a huge black shadow broke through the wall and pounced fiercely towards the three people.

Ye Xuan swung his free right hand and slashed out with a sword without any hesitation. The sword light of several feet long cut through the stones shot at the three people. In an instant, he stood on the black shadow that pounced on him. Then there was a "clang" sound of metal clashing. The figure suddenly paused, then rolled back several feet in a somewhat embarrassed manner, and crashed back into the mountain wall with a "bang".

The three of them retreated dozens of feet before stopping. Ye Xuan stared at the black shadow on the mountain wall and saw that it was a monster that looked like a crocodile. It was clinging to the mountain wall like a gecko. It had six legs, and its back was covered with thick scales that were the same as rocks. It had a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth.

Speaking of the demon mountain crocodile, Ye Xuan was not unfamiliar with it. When he was in the Yunxiao Sect, there was a demon mountain crocodile among the sect's spiritual beasts that he was responsible for taking care of and feeding. Although they were of the same species, the one in the Yunxiao Sect was just an intelligent one, and very human. The one in front of him was obviously different. It only knew how to kill instinctively. It looked at Ye Xuan and the others as if it saw a delicious meal. It seemed that it had seen many saints like Ye Xuan and others. It was unknown how many people had become its delicious meals.

The higher the level of cultivation of a monster, the higher its intelligence does not necessarily mean!
"Roar!!" This demon mountain crocodile seemed to be impatient. While Ye Xuan and the others were still looking at it, it roared again impatiently, leaped suddenly, and pounced towards the three people in a black mass.

Although it is a 'familiar beast', Ye Xuan will not show mercy. Seeing the opponent rushing towards him, he frowned slightly, stepped on the ground, and rushed forward with great momentum.
