In the darkness, lights turn on. The lamp was made of colored glaze and jade, embedded with a magic circle, and was driven by spiritual stones. It emitted light like the bright moon, making the huge cave as bright as day.
It is said that this glazed jade lamp is a specially made magic weapon for the Yuling Hall of Tianfumen. Although the monk's spiritual consciousness is powerful, it is inevitable to make mistakes, and with the illumination of the lamp, it is easier to explore in the dark.
The disciples of Tianfu Sect came prepared. Yuan Bao, holding a glazed jade lamp, searched in the cave and moved forward.
Others followed. But Ke Zhao and Kuang Ning, or Wen Gui and Lai Mian, always consciously or unconsciously watched behind them, paying attention to every move of the demon cultivator.
Accidentally, he became a demon cultivator. Yu Ye had no way to defend himself and simply remained silent. Yuan Bao is a disciple of Tianfumen Yulingtang. He and his two junior brothers should be demon cultivators. When he saw the dragon armor, Tianlong shield, and Shenlong Escape Technique, he mistook him for a demon cultivator in the wild.
And he didn't deny it, but there were constant questions in his consciousness.
"Qingluo, tell me the truth."
"What's the matter?"
"The Yuling Hall in Tianfumen should be a demon cultivator. Yuan Bao said there must be a reason!"
"Asking questions knowingly!"
"oh……"
"You forgot that your Jiao Dan comes from the Jiao Dragon, and the Jiao Dragon is the king of all demons!"
"And how could my dragon armor become the armor of a demon cultivator?"
"That Yuan Bao only knows one thing but not the other. He mistakenly regards dragon armor as the art of demon cultivators. However, demon cultivators' muscles and bones are much stronger and their strength is far greater than that of ordinary people. You should be more careful!"
"Hmm..." Just like what Qing Luo said, Yu Ye accidentally entered the path of immortality because of Jiao Dan. At first, his strength doubled, but he didn't care about it because he didn't expect it to be related to Jiao Dan.
It seems that the demon cultivator is not bad. Who doesn't want to become the king of demons?
"Everyone, let's go this way -" The cave where he was located was empty and silent, and there was nothing else found except for the rocks on the ground.
Yuan Bao called and walked forward holding his glazed jade lamp. On the other side of the cave, there is a cave entrance more than ten feet high, which looks like a knife and has a strange shape.
Especially at the top of the cave entrance, white jade stones hang upside down, each like a sword, shining brightly under the light of the lamp.
Wen Gui looked up and said in surprise: "The disciples of the Tianji Sect back then were very extraordinary. They were hiding in such a top-secret place!"
"Haha!" Yuan Bao smiled and said: "The Tianji Sect stole the artifact and it is known to the world, but no one knows where the Tianji Sect disciples are hiding." Wen Gui was very disapproving and said: "What if? No one knows why you and I found ourselves here?" His doubts were also Yu Ye's doubts.
After a group of Tianji Sect disciples stole the artifact, even if they hid in Tibet and traveled through various places, they might not be able to hide in such a secret place as Black Dragon Pond.
However, Yuan Bao was too lazy to argue and sneered: "Haha, if we could find the artifact, why would the six immortal sects have to wait until today." After passing through the entrance of the cave, there were dense rocks.
Following the cracks in the stones, the group searched. And where there was silence, the sound of footsteps and slight breathing gradually sounded.
Yu Ye slowed down. He tried to use his magic power, but his breath was not smooth. He seemed to have lost most of his fifth-level Golden Core cultivation, and even his feet became heavier.
What's going on here? Already far away from the Black Dragon Pond, the strange restrictions have not disappeared, but have gradually strengthened, and have reached the point of imprisoning the magic power of cultivation.
The blazing heat has not gone away, and the rocks under your feet are even hotter, making people feel like they are at the bottom of a burning cauldron, but they can't figure out the specific location.
Yu Ye looked back and forth. Wen Gui's figure has disappeared into the gap between the stones. Lai Mian happened to walk behind him. He seemed to be fine, but his face became darker. He said through a message: "This place is close to the earth's fire magma, and Tiancheng is banned. I'm afraid it's not easy to come, and it's not easy to go. The so-called Tianji Sect disciples are hiding. It's all nonsense." He was also suspicious of the alliance between the six immortal sects and this trip to Shenglong Ridge.
"Why is that so?"
"Hmph, I was supposed to join the alliance so that I could know its secrets, but I was framed by you and forced to leave Tianwu Mountain."
"It's your own fault!"
"As expected, it was you who spread the rumors."
"Is the list of selling pills fake?"
"Although it is true, it has been tampered with."
"If it's true, how can it be a rumor? I'm just taking a preemptive strike and trying to protect myself!"
"Don't mention the past, you can take matters into your own hands. However, the sect masters may have other agendas."
"Well, what you said makes sense..." When I mentioned the past, I was full of hatred. If we were to take a long-term view, we could only seek common ground while reserving differences and both parties take a step back.
Yu Ye and Lai Mian talked about the Tianwu Mountain Alliance, the movements of all parties, and discussed the temperament, behavior, preferences, etc. of several Huashen Sect leaders.
After all, Lai Mian is a famous monk in Yanzhou, and he knows several major immortal sects well. It is reported that Tian Juezi has a simple appearance and a scheming mind; Huayue from the Tiantong sect is calm and decisive in killing; Huang Zhuo from the Tianfu sect has a cold temperament and is ruthless; Meng Ba is unruly and arrogant; Fang Xiuzi has a temper He is gentle, good at calculations, and has a high prestige among the immortal sect.
Shen Jizi, the former master of the Seven Killing Demon Sect, had many contacts with outside the territory, and controlled the only door outside the territory, which was the Netherworld Gate. Therefore, he was superior to the Immortal Sect of Yanzhou, so he was admired and envied by some. Yes, there are plenty of haters.
Maybe he made too many enemies, which led to the tragedy of annihilating the family. But the right and wrong of that year are still difficult to make public.
Lai Mian knew very little about Chili. And his uncle Chihai was quite famous. He was an elder of the Demon Sect. He was highly cultivated and ambitious, but was suppressed by the divine machine and left the Nine Nether Valley in anger.
The destruction of the Seven Kills Demon Sect may have a lot to do with him...
"Haha, everyone, please take a look -" After walking through the cracks in the rocks for half an hour, my eyes suddenly brightened. Following Yuan Bao's signal, everyone looked at the light from the jade lamp in his hand.
It is another huge cave with sparkling crystal light and rich spiritual energy. It is obvious that it has come to an earth vein. Spiritual stones of different sizes and shapes are everywhere.
But only Yuan Bao and his two junior brothers were laughing. Ke Zhao and Kuang Ning, Wen Gui and Yu Ye, and even Lai Mian all looked cautious and suspicious.
You read it right, it is an underground spiritual vein, with tens of thousands of spiritual stones quietly exposed, or hidden in jade, shining with alluring crystal light under the illumination of lamps.
However, dozens of strange holes appeared among the jade and spirit stones. Each hole is only one or two feet thick, with waves of heat gushing out from it.
Surrounding the entrance of the cave were strewn with congealed blood and broken limbs. That's fine, the key is that everyone's cultivation is imprisoned, and their spiritual consciousness is difficult to reach.
If an accident occurs suddenly, it may be difficult to deal with it.
"Haha, it is said that there is a treasure of the Immortal Sect hidden here, but there are so many spiritual stones. Everyone who has seen it has a share -" Yuan Bao raised his hand and threw it, and his glazed jade lamp was hanging high on the cave wall. Under the shining lights, he and his two junior brothers rushed towards the spirit stone.
The four Tianji Sect disciples remained indifferent. Even Wen Gui, a money-grubbing philistine, turned a blind eye to so many spiritual stones at this time. Lai Mian walked towards the entrance of a cave. He checked for a moment, waved his hand and said: "Stay away from this place..." and the words Before he landed, something suddenly jumped out of the cave entrance, as fast as lightning, and rushed straight towards him.
He hurriedly waved it away, but it was difficult to use his magic power. At this moment,
"Bang"'s chest has been bitten tightly, the sharp teeth penetrate the body protection magic, and a tingling pain suddenly penetrates into the skin.
What's even worse is that his powerful cultivation level is also rapidly passing away. He couldn't help but back away, his eyes widening in disbelief.
What bit him was a monster. Although it was only about ten feet long and a foot thick, it had thick limbs, sharp teeth, and was covered with hair like steel needles. It was devouring his body-protecting magic power extremely crazily.
A ray of light suddenly flashed around Lai Mian,
The monster flew away with a "bang". And he couldn't help but take a few steps back, and the Taoist robe on his chest was torn open.
Unexpectedly, his footing was not stable, and the monster shook its head and tail in the air, and pounced viciously again. He quickly grabbed a dagger and slashed hard.
"Poof" blood splattered, the monster lost half of its head, and his dagger also flew away. He couldn't help but feel anxious and angry. The anxious thing was that he couldn't use his cultivation skills, and the angry thing was that he was forced into such a mess by a monster.
Unexpectedly, the mutation happened again, and it was again
"Huhu" the wind roared loudly. From dozens of cave entrances, black shadows rushed out one after another. It was the extremely ferocious and difficult to deal with monsters. There were hundreds of them. They instantly blocked the escape route of the cave and rushed towards Lai in groups. Mian pounced.
Lai Mian was shocked. Not only is he in a dangerous situation, but the four Tianji disciples are also surrounded by monsters.
The three Tianfu Sect disciples have long stopped digging for spiritual stones. Instead, they stand and watch from a distance, with proud sneers on their faces.
Among them, Yuan Bao waved his hands to cast spells. He was obviously driving the monster to launch a sneak attack. Lai Mian was shocked, but also secretly helpless.
The magic power of cultivation is restricted, even if you have great magical powers, there is nothing you can do. Ke Zhao was even more furious and scolded: "Yuan Bao, you are an enemy of our Tianji Sect, so you are not afraid of being punished by our sect?"
"Haha, don't be afraid!" Yuan Bao sneered and said confidently: "You can go in peace, no one knows about this."
"Just you?"
"Well, just the three of me, the hundred thorn-eating martens, and the restrictions here are enough to kill any senior Nascent Soul!"
"snort……"
"puff--"
"Bang——" When Ke Zhao was eager to reason, a thorn-eating marten jumped in front of him, and his sword penetrated his head.
Before he could draw out his dagger, another thorn-eating marten pounced on him, knocking him away. At this moment, Kuang Ning and Wen Gui were also surrounded by ferocious beasts.
Despite his busy schedule, Lai Mian did not forget his mission. If something goes wrong today, the senior in red will definitely not let him go.
And what about people? Yu Ye was hiding behind him just now, where was he now? There were figures of thorn-eating martens everywhere, but one person tapped his toes on the ground, suddenly jumped up, and rushed straight towards Yuan Bao.
It was Yu Ye, and how could he be the opponent of Yuan Bao and the others? As expected, Yuan Bao laughed ferociously, with a long sword in his hand, and formed an encirclement with his two junior brothers.
Before Yu Ye could rush forward, he suddenly turned around and plunged into the hole between the spiritual stones.
"Haha, there is either fire or magma underground. This fellow Taoist is seeking death!" Yuan Bao no longer paid attention to Yu Ye, but pounced on Ke Zhao and others.
Lai Mian spat secretly. Bah, is that kid looking for death? He is clearly running for his life! But in the blink of an eye, more than ten thorn-eating martens rushed over from all directions.
Lai Mian groaned secretly and was slightly startled. Neither Ke Zhao nor Wen Gui panicked at all...
