Su Yi agreed, stopped talking, and walked into the depths of the mass grave first. He walked very slowly, leading the way while always paying attention to the movements of the tombs.
Cheng Ling carried Yang Hongqiu on his back and followed him step by step, spreading his consciousness to the maximum speed limit. It's not that he has any scruples about these living souls, but he is looking for the whereabouts of the resurrecting grass. This place where living souls and tombs gather is exactly where the cold air is extremely strong.
Unfortunately, after walking for a long time, I only found other herbs with cold properties, such as Corpse Demon Flower, Heart-Eating Mushroom, etc. He collected them one by one. This kind of herb with cold properties was very rare. It was difficult for ordinary life stars to form, let alone one that was so old.
As we walked, the scene ahead gradually began to change. The densely packed small graves began to gradually decrease, but the road became wider. As we walked along the road, the mountains on both sides gradually increased, as if we had entered a valley. .
However, this valley seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world. There was not a single human being in sight, and the valley was all gray. The sunlight from the sky could hardly shine in. There were so many forked roads in the valley that it was impossible to tell the direction.
Cheng Ling asked doubtfully: "Did you not see any people when you came here?"
Su Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, how could any monk be willing to come in a place like this?"
"By the way, we are entering the gray area of the planet, and there is also half a green area. Have you ever been there?"
"No, it was the same as this time when I entered the planet. In order to avoid the rubble in the star ring, I did not dare to enter the green area. I only practiced here for a few years before being caught up by the Haotian Sect. Therefore, I highly doubt they did anything to me!"
Cheng Ling nodded and said, "In that case, let's first see what kind of brand it is so that you can be tracked wherever you go!"
Su Yi was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you, Brother Cheng!"
Cheng Ling waved his hand and immediately swept his consciousness towards Su Yi. After searching inch by inch and burning incense, he finally found a very vague mark of consciousness on his right shoulder! He moved his right hand, and the glazed fire came to his palm, and immediately burned towards the mark.
Unfortunately, the power of glazed fire was limited. After the mark was burned, it had little impact and was only slightly weaker. Cheng Ling smiled bitterly in his heart. If the fire continued like this, it would be impossible to eliminate it within a year and a half. By then, the people of the Haotian Sect would have long since caught up.
After pondering for a while, he made up his mind and used the meteor fire to burn Su Yi's shoulder again.
Su Yi felt an almost suffocating heat coming from him. He turned around and said in shock: "Third-level Nirvana Heavenly Fire, Brother Cheng, you are so awesome!"
"Stop talking nonsense, if it weren't for you, kid, I wouldn't use this flame!"
"Hehe~~, don't worry, this secret will definitely rot in my stomach. Thank you, Brother Cheng!"
The temperature of Meteor Fire is not comparable to Glaze Fire. In less than a cup of tea, the mark of divine consciousness was burned out. Su Yi felt relieved and no longer had the feeling of being stared at.
The two continued walking forward for a long time, and the sky gradually darkened in the valley. Su Yi quickly took Cheng Ling to the edge of a mountain wall and said, "Brother Cheng, when night comes, the valley will be unsafe. Let's open a temporary cave first and hide in it!"
Cheng Ling was confused, and it could be seen that he looked cautious. He immediately helped open a temporary cave and set up a layer of sealing at the entrance of the cave. Then he gently put Yang Hongqiu down and sat beside her.
Su Yi explained: "In this valley, unknown creatures will appear at night, and there are so many of them that it is impossible to kill them all. Back then, I was surrounded by those creatures and killed them continuously for three days and three nights. The fairy spiritual power in my body has been exhausted, and if I hadn’t found a cave, I wouldn’t have known which grave it was.”
Cheng Ling's heart moved and she asked, "What kind of creatures like to appear at night?"
"Yes, those creatures are extremely fast and difficult to kill with ordinary spells."
"What about the living souls? Are the living souls you got here?"
"Yes, but the quality of the souls here is not high. Perhaps more powerful souls can be found at the back of the valley, which will also be of greater help to the commander's injuries."
Cheng Ling pondered for a while and said, "Okay, you help take care of her, and I'll go out and take a look. Don't worry, those creatures shouldn't be able to do anything to me!"
Seeing his persistence, Su Yi couldn't say much. After all, Cheng Ling's cultivation level was much higher than his own. Just because he can't stand it doesn't mean Cheng Ling can't stand it either!
When Cheng Ling walked out of the cave, he immediately felt that the cold air in the air was much thicker. The sky was still gray and the night was even darker. There were almost no stars in sight, only a vague waning moon hanging in the sky.
At this moment, a strong sinister wind blew over, causing him to shiver slightly, but he recovered as soon as the fairy power in his body turned around. But soon, he felt as if there were illusory figures approaching him all around.
Those shadows are invisible to the naked eye, and even the spiritual consciousness can only catch a trace. The speed is really fast! He took a deep breath, his eyes blazed with light, and he scanned all directions, and he immediately saw clearly what those creatures were.
I saw that they were all illusory spiritual bodies, with only one head and upper body, no legs, but they could float in mid-air. Cheng Ling was shocked. This... this thing is exactly the same as the ghost seen in the comic book. Is there really a ghost in this life star?
Before he could think about it, he glanced over and saw the first group of creatures rushing towards him. Cheng Ling moved his hands together and shot out a row of ice needles. The creatures let out a "squeak" cry and suddenly disappeared.
But in less than a moment, wherever you look, there are more and more transparent objects, one... five... ten... a hundred... .... Later he could no longer distinguish the specific quantity.
And what's even more ominous is that after using the barrier-breaking eye too much, affected by the Yin Qi here, the eyeballs feel a slight pain and even the vision becomes blurred.
His heart trembled, and he immediately gave up using the technique. Instead, he closed his eyes and controlled his consciousness within a radius of twenty feet to sense the attacks of those creatures.
With such intensive spiritual scanning, those creatures were suddenly nowhere to be seen! He moved his hands slightly, firing out ice spells one after another. He leaned against the front of the cave with his back to reduce the area being attacked. Ice needles, ice picks, and ice blades formed a shower of flowers, killing the creatures that flew towards them.
Those creatures were killed in large numbers, but as Su Yi said, there was no end to them. After killing a hundred, thousands more came up. However, every time one is killed and the creature disappears, a ball of light will eventually appear, from which a faint breath of soul can be felt.
He raised his hands lightly, collected all the soul breath, turned around and got into the temporary cave. Those creatures rushed up one after another, but they were all blocked by the seal outside the cave and could not enter.
Cheng Ling opened his eyes and looked at the soul auras collected in his hands. With a sweep of his consciousness, he found that they were seven or eight times similar to the souls Su Yi gave him. Unfortunately, these souls were too weak. It didn't help Yang Hongqiu's soul much.
Su Yi was surprised and said: "Brother Cheng, you can collect more. If you gather less, you can make more, so that the master can recover as soon as possible."
Cheng Ling's heart moved, and there was some truth in what he said. He immediately grabbed one of the living souls and began to sacrifice it. The quality of these living souls is much worse than before. After the sacrifice and refining, only a ball the size of an egg is left.
But in contrast, the time for the sacrifice was also greatly reduced. It only took less than a quarter of an hour for a soul to be sacrificed. Without stopping, he sacrificed all the dozens of souls he had temporarily collected, handed them to Su Yi and said: "Su Yi, when my master wakes up, you can give these souls to her, and I will collect some more." !”
After saying that, without waiting for Su Yi's answer, he rushed out again.
In such a night, Cheng Ling collected more than two hundred living souls. As the night gradually dissipated, those creatures also decreased significantly and eventually disappeared.
A few hours later, Yang Hongqiu woke up and turned around. According to Cheng Ling's idea, he began to use those living souls to make up for the damage to his soul. After five hours, all the living souls were consumed.
Cheng Ling was pleasantly surprised to find that Yang Hongqiu did not fall asleep again during these five hours and persisted longer. He was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Master, how do you feel?"
Yang Hongqiu smiled and said: "I feel that my headache has slowed down a lot. It's just a dull pain. Thank you for your hard work!"
"It doesn't matter, this is what a disciple should do. Where is the remnant soul? Has there been any change?"
Yang Hongqiu said sadly: "She is still in my soul, and I feel that she is getting stronger. If it weren't for the supplement of these souls, she would not be able to suppress her for a while."
Cheng Ling's heart sank. This method could only treat the symptoms. Although it strengthened Yang Hongqiu's soul, it had no effect on the remaining soul. The only way is to greatly enhance Yang Hongqiu's soul and completely refine the remaining soul.
Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the Resurrection Grass have not been found so far, and the Nine-turn Resurrection Pill still cannot be refined. So the most direct way at hand is to use the energy of these souls to continuously replenish her soul consumption, so that the remaining soul cannot succeed.
Thinking of this, he said: "Don't be afraid. As long as I collect some more living souls, the master's soul can be completely restored. Then it will be simple to start refining it."
Yang Hongqiu nodded slightly. At this time, he felt tired again and could only say apologetically: "Cheng Ling, my time to wake up is still too short. I will leave it to you in the future!"
"Don't worry, master. I will definitely find a way!"
Cheng Ling agreed, and Yang Hongqiu fell asleep again. He then said to Su Yi: "Su Yi, you said there may be more powerful living souls ahead. Since such creatures will not appear during the day, then hurry up and leave the valley!"
Su Yi nodded happily, stood up, and continued walking forward. Cheng Ling carried Yang Hongqiu on his back and followed slowly behind him!
