On the way back from Xuanzhou, the atmosphere was slightly deserted.
We were riding the same shuttle boat we had come from, but there were only a few people on board, and even half of the boat was not full.
A team of dozens of third-level monks entered the Xuanzhou Secret Realm. When they returned, there were only five of them, three of whom were seriously injured. If Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu hadn't been promoted and acquired the Earth Fire, they might not even have the momentum to return. Even so, the price is too heavy.
Although the world of cultivators is competitive and murderous, with Fuxi Mountain as a backer, the disciples in the sect have never experienced such a painful lesson when they went to the secret realm.
Everyone sat on the shuttle boat and looked at the sea of clouds, with different thoughts.
Zhao Yisu thought of something and suddenly asked: "I have another question, which is the sandworm... Why did the sandworm focus on us as soon as it came in and kidnapped us all alone? I asked specifically before and said I didn't hear it. There are people in Xuandan Mansion who know how to tame animals..."
Jiang Yunchen replied: "This is not the work of Xuandan Mansion, but the demon body. That demon body has been hiding in the secret realm for a long time. If we hadn't encountered it, it might have been hidden for even longer, until it broke through and became a demon king or even a demon soul. .”
Zhao Yisu: "You mean, the demonic body survives in the secret realm and has already adapted to everything in the secret realm. It also controls sandworms to capture some disciples with sufficient spiritual energy for food?"
Jiang Yunchen nodded.
"So, doesn't the intelligence of the demon body have evolved?" Dai Tao interjected: "The demon body is only as good as the sixth grade in cultivation, but in fact its IQ is not high. This demon body seems to be extraordinary."
Lu Yunjiao: "We have to report this matter to the master in detail when we go back. The Xuanzhou Secret Realm is within our jurisdiction. If such a big thing happened, although the main responsibility lies with the Xuandan Mansion, we at Fuxi Mountain must express our position. .The leader will definitely send a team to the Western Continent and seek an explanation from the Xuandan Mansion."
Dai Tao: "Then I'll go too!"
Lu Yunjiao: "You are so seriously injured, please take good care of yourself!"
Dai Tao sat back with a slumped face. After this battle, her mentality also changed a bit: "After I go back, I will practice hard and become stronger. I no longer want to be a burden to my teammates."
Pang Caiwen and Guo Bannong looked at each other and smiled, but said nothing.
The sea of clouds was rolling, and the shuttle boat passed through it, and it didn't take long to reach Fuxi Mountain.
Everyone went down and went back to their respective mansions.
At this time, Guo Bannong, who was walking behind and kept silent, stopped Dai Tao.
Dai Tao stopped: "What's wrong?"
Guo Bannong took something out of his storage bag: "This is for you." This was the loot he exchanged after leaving the secret realm, some pills.
Dai Tao was puzzled.
Guo Bannong said: "When we left the Tibetan Treasure Tower, you once gave me a fifth-grade elixir to heal my wounds. I said I would definitely return it."
Dai Tao pinched something, but couldn't smile: "I thought... we don't have to be so clear-cut between us."
Pang Cai asked and laughed as he passed by: "Don't you understand his bad temper? He just doesn't like to owe others, he is a hard-spoken and soft-hearted guy! Let's go, go back and rest quickly, I'm exhausted!"
Guo Bannong turned his face and did not notice the awkward atmosphere. His mind was still immersed in the moment when Master Broken Shadow killed the demon body a few days ago.
The demonic body contained vicious energy, and the sound was mixed with the roars of countless dead souls, including men, women, children, and men. Everyone found it unpleasant, but what Guo Bannong heard was the blood and tears of the people of Xuanzhou.
Because of the existence of the Earth Fire, Xuanzhou suffered from long-term drought and the people were in dire straits. His parents and relatives had long been scattered around the world, and their whereabouts were unknown.
Perhaps the cries of the undead when the demonic body was shattered contained the grievances of his parents.
But whose fault does this injustice belong to? Counting the aristocratic family mansion that drove them out in the first place? What about the source of earthly fire that appeared inexplicably in Xuanzhou?
I came to Xuanzhou when I was on a mission. I was ambitious to conquer the earth fire and give an explanation to the dead souls. However, my ability was mediocre. I didn't even see the source of the earth fire. I was chased in the secret realm and could only flee in a hurry. Son……
His arrogance in climbing up to the 70th floor of the Tibetan Treasure Tower with a low-level spirit was completely worn away after just one experience.
This was not the first time he had experienced setbacks on the road to immortality, but it was not as profound as this time.
+++++
About half a day later, the situation in the Xuanzhou secret realm spread throughout Fuxi Mountain.
Zhao Yisu got the Earth Fire, and all the fire attribute cultivators raised their necks to wait and see, but Zhao Yisu was nowhere to be seen.
Even Jiang Yunchen, who had been promoted beyond his previous level, was missing.
As soon as everyone thought about it, they started talking about CP randomly again. Liu Ruyi took a pen and paper and squatted in the crowd to keep track of the news. Not long after, Fuxi Mountain's today's express report came out: In the secret land of Xuanzhou, Jiang Yunchen and Zhao Yisu composed a good drama about sharing life and death and true love in adversity. , Zhao Yisu was poisoned and came out of the secret realm, and was picked up by Jiang Yunchen to save the beauty. After practicing in seclusion, the two of them were promoted at the same time. Could it be that they had an epiphany on the dual cultivation method? If you want to know about the funeral, please pay attention to Fuxishan Today's Express...
At this time, the two parties involved had no idea about this outrageous rumor.
Jiang Yunchen hid in a deep mountain col in Fuxi Mountain and let the foodie digest in place.
This guy has swallowed a large amount of earth fire with spiritual energy. It has been digested for several days. His belly is a little smaller and the shape of his facial features has become more neat.
Jiang Yunchen set up blinders and barriers to protect it. At the same time, he was busy practicing the sixth level of the nine-level thunder and fire skill.
The Nine Levels of Thunder and Fire Technique was a technique that he created on his own after reaching the seventh level. No one knew the secrets of this technique better than him. The late fourth-level cultivation was originally not enough to refine the sixth level, but his inner elixir has been infected with Zhao Yisu's earth fire, so maybe he can give it a try.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yunchen quickly made a secret in his hand and tried quietly...
On the other side, Zhao Yisu was holding a bunch of good things and climbed to the top of Li Hantian's mountain.
When she arrived, she subconsciously looked for people on the surrounding trees and rooftops to see if the old man was hanging upside down again. Unexpectedly, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "Oh."
Zhao Yisu turned around and saw that the old man was still wearing the colorful spirit feather clothes she had found for him. It was shining brightly from beginning to end. The clothes were gorgeous, but his hair was unkempt and his beard was flying around. He looked like a beggar wrapped in candy wrappers. , there is an indescribable sense of humor.
What’s even more funny is that the old man is carrying a pole on his shoulder, with empty vegetable baskets on both ends, and only a few yellow vegetable leaves hanging on it.
Zhao Yisu: "Master? What are you busy with?"
Li Hantian didn't like hearing people call him master and didn't want to pay attention to her. He walked past her unsteadily, but suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at her with blazing eyes!
Before Zhao Yisu could figure out the situation, she felt a huge spiritual consciousness sweep through her body, making her hair stand on end. This consciousness disappeared in the blink of an eye, and Old Man Li's eyes widened: "Fourth grade?!"
Zhao Yisu grinned: "Master, are you satisfied with your disciple's progress?"
Li Hantian looked at her up and down several times: "Have you engaged in dual cultivation?"
Zhao Yisu: "??!"
