Chapter 147 Dragon Blood Kelp
"Ok?"

Just as Gu Mo was thinking about his next plan, he felt an inexplicable palpitation in his heart, as if he was locked in by the energy.

"No way, they can still catch up with this?" Gu Mo stood up. It was obvious that he had underestimated Yuanying Zhenjun's methods, or it could be said that Gu Mo had never really understood Yuanying Zhenjun.

"Fortunately, I still have a trick up my sleeve, otherwise it would be terrible." Gu Mo took out the wooden identity tag that Qi Chunde gave him, which had a very detailed map on it.

There is a relatively safe sea route on the map. At this moment, the ships from Xiancheng are taking this sea route, while there are many dangerous areas in other places.

Some of these areas are inhabited by level 4 sirens.

Gu Mo locked onto the nearest 4th-order sea monster's territory, and then jumped off the boat. Since Fenghua Sect's Yuanying Zhenjun was chasing him closely, Gu Mo could only hide in the 4th-order sea monster's territory.

Gu Mo, who is in the foundation-building stage, would not attract the attention of a 4th-order siren when entering their territory. In addition, Gu Mo's great-master level breath-concealing technique could reduce his presence to the greatest extent.

But if the Yuanying Zhenjun appeared, the 4th level sea monster would definitely react, and the two sides might fight. In the sea, the fighting power of the sea monster is definitely stronger than that of the human Yuanying Zhenjun.

Of course, there are still risks in doing so, but now it has reached the point where Gu Mo has no choice but to do so.

“The direction has changed.”

He Zhangcheng, who was speeding on the sea holding the magic weapon Si Nan, suddenly stopped and asked, "Are you trying to hide with the help of the sea monster?" He Zhangcheng quickly guessed Gu Mo's plan.

He Zhangcheng really had no way to deal with this one trick. He could still communicate with the mayor of the fairy city, but a 4th-level siren would not communicate with human monks at all, even though the wisdom of a 4th-level siren was not inferior to that of humans.

The way to crack this trick is to stop the target before he enters the territory of the Level 4 Siren, or kill the Level 4 Siren together. Unfortunately, He Zhangcheng does not have this ability. It is too difficult to kill a Siren in the sea. It is also difficult to kill an early Level 4 Siren in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

But He Zhangcheng was unwilling to give up just like that, because once time passed and the energy dissipated, it would be difficult for him to find the target again.

After thinking about it, He Zhangcheng decided to go over and take a look. Maybe he could kill the guy who was teasing him before being discovered by the 4th level siren.

"What a pity, I haven't mastered the Wind Escape Technique yet, so the speed is still too slow." Gu Mo was flying low over the sea with his sword, feeling a little regretful. He had learned the Wind Escape Technique too short a time ago, and before he could comprehend it, he was discovered by He Shaogang.

Then he killed He Shaogang directly and ran away. Only when he was running away did Gu Mo clearly realize the importance of mastering a technique of escape.

"So fast!"

Feeling that the mysterious Qi was getting stronger and stronger, Gu Mo continued to speed up, and then plunged into the sea. At this moment, he had entered the 4th level sea monster's territory, and he needed to hide well. By the way, he also attracted the 4th level sea monster in this area.

"Got you!"

He Zhangcheng's spiritual sense locked onto a faint breath in the distance. That was exactly the target he was looking for. Although the other party had entered the territory of a Level 4 Sirens, it had not yet gone deep. Level 4 Sirens are usually in the core area and rarely wander around the edge areas.

As long as he was fast enough, he could kill the target before the Level 4 Siren could react and then leave in style.

However, just as He Zhangcheng approached the sea area, a breath that was no weaker than his was rapidly approaching from the bottom of the sea. Seeing this, He Zhangcheng's face changed. He couldn't understand why the mermaid appeared here.

Why did the Siren appear here? Of course, she was attracted by Gu Mo. According to the map given by Qi Chunde, there was a special plant-type Siren lurking here.

From the relatively detailed information left by Qi Chunde, it is obvious that Qi Chunde, the spiritual plant master, has ideas about that special plant-type mermaid.

However, the huge gap in strength between the two sides made Qi Chunde put away his thoughts.

Since it was a plant, Gu Mo thought it would be interested in the sun essence. So, Gu Mo threw a portion of level 3 sun essence, and it really attracted the level 4 sea monster.

Looking at the huge dark green figure that quickly emerged from the deep sea, the size alone made Gu Mo feel a sense of oppression. As the dark green figure continued to float up, Gu Mo, who was hiding in the distance, could see its true appearance. It was a giant kelp, or to be more precise, a giant dragon-shaped kelp.

According to the information left by Qi Chunde, this is a kelp stained with dragon blood. With the help of the dragon blood, this kelp mermaid is transforming into a dragon.

The kelp monster in dragon form has completely changed its racial characteristics. It is no longer rooted in the seabed, but has turned into a dragon-shaped kelp that can swim around.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the dragon blood kelp is used to staying in one place. This time, it was attracted by the aura of the sun essence thrown out by Gu Mo, so it came here to find out what was going on.

Afterwards, the 4th-level Dragon Blood Kelp obtained a portion of 3rd-level Sun Essence. Absorbing that 3rd-level Sun Essence made the Dragon Blood Kelp feel very comfortable. The Dragon Blood Kelp even felt that this special power was of great help to its real transformation into a dragon.

With the desire to transform into a dragon, the 4th-level dragon blood kelp began to look for this kind of special energy everywhere. Then it found Gu Mo hiding in the distance. Of course, it was not interested in a human cultivator in the foundation-building stage at all. This thing was not even enough to fill its teeth.

It was not until the Dragon Blood Kelp discovered that a human Nascent Soul cultivator was approaching that it became a little excited. Could it be that the special energy just now was left behind by that human Nascent Soul?

So, if it kills this human Nascent Soul cultivator, does it mean that it can obtain more of that special energy?

"Wait!"

Seeing the dragon blood kelp rushing out of the sea, He Zhangcheng's face changed. He didn't understand why this level 4 siren was so crazy and started fighting as soon as they met.

But he didn't want to fight a level 4 siren in the sea, which was a completely thankless task.

However, the Dragon Blood Kelp ignored He Zhangcheng. At this moment, it had only one thought in its mind, to kill the human Yuanying in front of it and seize that special energy.

Seeing the aggressive level 4 siren, He Zhangcheng was a little annoyed. He was unwilling to fight a level 4 siren in the sea, but that didn't mean he was afraid of it.

The only way to reason with the siren is to fight with it. Only when the siren knows that he is not easy to mess with, will it naturally stop.

Thinking of this, He Zhangcheng no longer retreated. The true energy and magic power in his body burst out and he went straight to kill the dragon blood kelp.

"boom!"

The battle between the 4th-level sea monster and Yuanying Zhenjun broke out instantly, directly rolling up huge waves in the sea. Seeing this, Gu Mo, who was hiding in the distance, changed his expression.

He immediately turned around and ran, but unfortunately Gu Mo was still too slow and was swept away by a huge wave. Afterwards, Gu Mo felt as if he was thrown into a washing machine, and everything around him began to distort.

"Ugh~~" When Gu Mo escaped from the dizzying vortex, even his physique at the fake elixir level couldn't help but retching. The next moment, Gu Mo looked around, and then his face was full of confusion.

"Fuck, where did you take me?" Gu Mo took out Qi Chunde's wooden sign, which was an unmarked location.

This meant that the map in his hand was invalid and his plan to go to Shennong Valley was put on hold. Now he needed to figure out his location first.

Leaping out of the sea, Gu Mo flew into the air on his sword and looked around quickly. Soon, he saw an island in the distance. The island was not big, but not small either. It was estimated to be about the size of a sub-city of Yuntian Fairy City.

Further away, there are many scattered small islands.

After confirming the direction, Gu Mo immediately flew towards the island on his sword. As he got closer to the island, Gu Mo frowned. He felt the breath of a monster on the island, and it was the breath of a level 3 monster.

In addition, there is actually a level 3 spiritual vein on the island. It should be the existence of this level 3 spiritual vein that attracted the level 3 monster to settle there.

The level 3 spiritual vein can attract monsters and Gu Mo.

With the Breath-Concealing Technique at its full capacity running, Gu Mo landed on the island silently. He planned to see the monsters on the island. If they were easy to deal with, he would seize the island and transform it into his spiritual field.

"Ok?"

Gu Mo entered the island and saw many human skeletons along the way, which made Gu Mo frown slightly. This was a man-eating monster. There were still humans living near this island. Could it be those archipelagos in the distance?

After knowing that the target was a ferocious monster, Gu Mo became more careful. After passing through a forest, Gu Mo arrived at the center of the island.

He saw a lake with spiritual energy flowing in it. This was the 3rd-order spiritual vein that Gu Mo had sensed before. On the mainland, spiritual veins are all earth veins, while in the ocean, spiritual veins basically appear in the form of water veins.

At this moment, this lake is a third-level water vein. Whether it is an earth vein or a water vein, the spiritual energy contained in it is the same.

After quickly scanning the lake, Gu Mo saw a giant lizard lying in the lake. This was the level 3 monster lurking here.

"Early stage 3, this is worth a try." Gu Mo carefully sensed the breath of the monster. After confirming that it was an early stage 3 monster, Gu Mo's mind became active.

If it was a late stage 3 monster, Gu Mo would choose to leave, but it was an early stage 3 monster, and he was now fully capable of killing it and then taking this 3rd stage water vein for himself.

This giant lizard monster doesn't look like a good guy either. Killing it can be considered as getting rid of harm to the people.

Thinking of this, Gu Mo stepped back and found a place where he could directly see the monitor lizard. Then he took out a level 3 potato mine. This thing was not used when dealing with He Shaogang before, so it was just right to give the monitor lizard a taste.

With the power of the 3rd level potato mine, it is not a problem to kill the 3rd level monster in the early stage. The only thing Gu Mo has to consider is how to attract the giant lizard and let it step on the mine.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Mo took out a flowerpot, planted a level 1 pea shooter in it, and placed it next to the potato mine.

Then, Gu Mo controlled the Pea Shooter to attack the monitor lizard in the lake.

The emerald green energy pea drew a parabola and landed on the monitor lizard's head. A level 1 pea shooter naturally could not cause any damage to a level 3 monitor lizard, but it did anger the monitor lizard very well.

Immediately, the monitor lizard stood up and walked towards the Pea Shooter. Perhaps because it saw that the Pea Shooter was only level 1 and there was nothing else nearby that could threaten it, the monitor lizard's steps were very lazy.

Soon the monitor lizard approached the Pea Shooter, and its huge front paw stepped on the potato mine.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the power of annihilation exploded, directly annihilating everything within 3 meters centered on the monitor lizard's front paw, including a quarter of the monitor lizard's body.

There is no way. Although the potato mine is powerful, its explosion range is limited, and the monitor lizard is huge. Even if the monitor lizard suffers full damage from the potato mine, only a quarter of its body will be blown off.

However, this was already considered an extremely serious injury. Gu Mo could even see the demon pill hidden in the wound of the giant lizard.

"hiss!!"

A quarter of its body was annihilated in an instant, causing the monitor lizard to roar in pain. Of course, it was more filled with fear, because the monitor lizard could clearly feel that if the explosion hit its vital points, it would surely die.

Without hesitation, the monitor lizard dragged its seriously injured body and tried to escape back to the lake.

But how could Gu Mo let it do as it wished, so he summoned a top-grade flying sword that emitted a cold aura, and used the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique to kill it directly.

The original top-grade bamboo sword was on the fake Dan incarnation and has now been lost. At this moment, Gu Mo's top-grade ice-attribute flying sword was a trophy seized from He Shaogang. In addition, the top-grade defensive magic weapon was also produced by He Shaogang.

As long as it is not a spiritual weapon that has recognized its master, a normal magic weapon can be used after being re-refined after the death of the original owner. However, if it is a spiritual weapon that has given birth to spiritual intelligence, it will be difficult to recognize its master again.

With the top-grade flying sword magic weapon and the top-grade defensive magic weapon, combined with Gu Mo's physique and soul at the level of fake dan, it is obviously not a big problem to kill a severely injured 3rd-level early stage monster.

If Gu Mo's cultivation was not still a little lacking, with two top-grade magic weapons in hand, killing an early stage 3 monster would be a piece of cake.

"Hu~~"

Looking at the corpse of the giant lizard that was frozen into an ice cube, Gu Mo let out a long breath. It was still a bit difficult for the liquid magic power in the foundation-building period to activate the top-grade magic weapon. However, after successfully taking over this tier-3 water vein, he would plant more tier-3 sunflowers and replace all the liquid spiritual power in his body with golden elixir power. Then he would be able to easily control the top-grade magic weapon.

Take out the demon pill from the giant lizard's body and keep it away. This demon pill is very valuable and can be used as an external pill for the foundation-building cultivator to practice and become an external pill cultivator.

In addition, the flesh, blood, tendons and bones of level 3 monsters are also good treasures, which can be used for both alchemy and refining equipment.

After dealing with the corpse of the monster, Gu Mo came to the lake in the center of the island. Just now he was only thinking about killing the monster and snatching the spiritual vein. Now a problem was put in front of Gu Mo. It seemed that sunflowers could not be planted in water, and water veins could not be filled with soil, otherwise the water veins would be ruined.

"It seems that I need to go to the vending machine to explore and see if there are any suitable new plants available." Gu Mo's mind moved, and then he entered the black fog space.
