The strange spiritual feeling in Zhong Lingge's heart surged up again, this time the feeling was extremely strong.
She was certain that the unpleasant feeling came from the young female cultivator in front of her who had achieved Qi Refining. She was obviously a stranger and a junior who had just advanced to Qi Refining. It was really weird for her to have such a spiritual feeling.
"Who's in front?"
"Qingge? Why are you here?"
Yu Jiao spoke almost at the same time as Zhong Lingge. After speaking, she turned to the three seniors who were looking at her and took the initiative to reveal the identity of the female cultivator in front of her.
"She is the clan girl I mentioned, Yu Qingge."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Qingge's figure disappeared into the mist, and the back of Yuhe Fu could be vaguely seen as he left.
"It's strange. This island is not close to Yuexin Island, and there are no resources to find. What is she doing here? Is she chasing me and getting lost here?"
Yu Jiao's eyes were full of confusion. She glanced around, then used her spiritual consciousness to sense it, and suddenly her heart palpitated.
Something deep underground in the center of the deserted island was attracting her.
"Senior, there seems to be an opportunity here."
"Oh? Where?"
Zhong Lingge put aside the doubts in her heart. No matter what weirdness Yu Qingge had, as long as it was harmful to her or the people she cared about, sooner or later it would be exposed. She just needs to wait for that day to come and eradicate the roots.
Yu Jiao pointed to the center of the island, "Deep underground, there is no danger, so it should be a good chance to get it. Seniors, if you can trust me, you can go and check it out. I have to go home to keep my parents safe."
From the moment she met Yu Qingge, she felt that she had to go home and didn't want to stay out for anything anymore.
Seeing that she was in a hurry to leave, Zhong Lingge took out a third-level super-grade amulet, thinking that she could use it. "You gave us all the good things in your storage bag, and the talisman will be our reward."
Lan Siyue and Hu Jiufei also gave her a formation disk and a short-distance teleportation talisman respectively. In a tacit understanding, they all gave her treasures to save her life and escape. Since there was no spirit beast bag, Yu Jiao said that she would leave the spirit liquid fish in the Bell Singer first and get it later when she had a chance.
"Let's go to the center of the island to see what good things there are." Zhong Lingge watched her back go away and looked back at the fog ahead, not doubting that there was some kind of opportunity waiting there.
The three of them galloped all the way to the center of the island. The seemingly flat grassland ground exuded a gentle aura and vitality.
"Could it be spiritual spring water?" Zhong Lingge reached down with his consciousness, and only at the limit could he barely detect the unusual wood spiritual energy. "It's not a spiritual spring, but you can't find out what it is from above. There is no passage below. It is a naturally formed opportunity. You can go down without any obstacles."
"Then let's go down and take a look." Hu Jiufei took the initiative to walk ahead to clear the way, and his figure disappeared into the ground in a flash.
Zhong Lingge followed closely behind, while Lan Siyue still chose to take the rear. The three of them escaped and walked through the soft soil and hard rock for a long time before arriving at a natural underground cave.
The interior of the cave is full of radiant crystals. This kind of mineral with thin spiritual energy has a very high refractive index and is often used to embellish artifacts and magic weapons. It is a common low-grade ore in the Lower Domain.
The unmined ore cave reflects the light that comes from nowhere, illuminating the small space extremely brightly, even a little dazzling, unlike the darkness underground elsewhere.
"Why did the aura and vitality disappear as soon as it came in?" Zhong Lingge clearly sensed the unique wood aura on the ground, but it disappeared when he came underground. "This is the deepest point, and there should be mineral veins further down."
"Well" Lan Siyue looked at a dimly lit part of the stone wall, pondered for a moment and then said, "Do you want me to break through there and take a look?"
The two of them followed her finger and looked over. It was the only place in the entire cave with a low refractive index. It was inconspicuous at first glance, but it became obvious once they found it and compared it.
"I think it's okay, I'll listen to you!" Zhong Lingge agreed and took the initiative to retreat to the edge of the cave and cling to the glazed stone wall, activating all the aura of the defensive suit.
While Hu Jiufei laughed at her for hiding so quickly, he stepped forward to help Lan Siyue attack together. The two of them worked together, and large chunks of the extremely hard Yao Jing Stone fell off, revealing a deep, arm-thick hole in the small dim area. Hole, a strange wood spiritual energy suddenly spurted out.
"Spiritual songs! Come and see!"
Hu Jiufei spoke excitedly, and turned around to face Zhong Lingge with an excited smile.
Zhong Lingge flew forward, not forgetting to divide the radiant crystal stone that fell on the ground into three parts. No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat. If you sell it to an unknown shop, you can exchange it for nearly a thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
She got closer between the two of them and looked into the dark little hole, and her mood became excited.
"It's actually an immortal tree!"
Immortal wood is one of the top wood-attribute treasures, containing extremely rich vitality. It only requires a very thin amount of spiritual energy to achieve immortality. This material is very tough and has no medicinal value, but it is an excellent main material for refining magic weapons and spiritual weapons.
There is no possibility of cultivating this kind of scarce wood. It can only be born and grow forever. There are no rules in where it appears, so it has never been controlled by any clan.
“It’s such a big piece, it’s enough to cut into pieces and divide it between the three of us!”
Zhong Lingge had just been happy for a moment when he suddenly thought of the record about the immortal wood on the jade slip.
"Quickly retreat! The Immortal Tree is guarded by the Hidden God Snake!"
She dragged her two friends and flew back. As soon as they landed, a dazzling colorful light appeared in front of them. The dazzling light refracted from the crystal stone wall made people dizzy.
Sizzling——
A long, seven-colored snake as thick as an arm was suspended at the entrance of the small cave, spitting out a snake message to threaten, and looking at the three of them coldly with slanted golden eyes.
The Hidden God Snake is good at hiding in the surrounding environment. Its aggressiveness and fighting ability are not strong. What is terrible is its poisonous nature. Once you are touched by any part of its body, even if it is just mucus, you will fall into a state of double paralysis of the body and the sea of consciousness in a short period of time.
Once it loses resistance, the hidden snake will devour the creature while it is still alive.
Zhong Lingge was thankful that she had reacted a step faster just now. She did not rush to attack, but took out three crystal white detoxification pills, just in case.
"It has just advanced to the third level, and its aura is still a little fuzzy. It should be because it failed to protect the aura of the immortal wood when it advanced. We can only feel it when we are on it. Be careful, everyone, the Shenyin Snake has gathered the evil poison in its body. It is a refiner. When making highly toxic materials, you must not let them get close to you. And"
Before Zhong Lingge finished speaking, the hidden snake had already dodged towards them, and the slime it threw out was as hard to avoid as rain.
The three of them had defensive talismans attached to their bodies and carefully avoided the mucus to attack from a distance. With one blow, the hidden snake disappeared without a trace.
Boom!
The crystal stone wall could not withstand the heavy blow and slowly collapsed. Zhong Lingge was heartbroken and simply stretched out his spiritual consciousness to wrap around the immortal wood and pulled it out fiercely. He threw it into the storage bag and ran away.
"Quickly go! Wait until it chases you out!"
"Ling Ge, what did you want to say just now, and what?"
"Oh, and the Shenyin Snake is a social monster, there won't be just one!"
