In terms of cultivation and strength of the three Changbai sect disciples in front of them, the other two may be slightly inferior to Junior Brother Qi who escaped from Shang Xia several times, but the strength of the leader is at least equal to Junior Brother Qi. .
The three of them joined forces to create an exquisite sword formation, which even Shang Xia could not defeat in a hurry.
Moreover, the three of them deliberately delayed, waiting for their fourth-level elders to arrive. The two sides came and went, but for a while no one could do anything.
It was because of Shang Xia's astuteness that he noticed that the three of them were deliberately delaying the fight with the other party. He discovered the clues. I am afraid that once the fourth-level heavenly warriors from Changbai Holy Land arrive, he will be in trouble. And left.
But Shang Xia was really unwilling to retreat without figuring out what was in the cave. Besides, Sifangbei also noticed traces of the origin of heaven and earth outside the cave.
Because of this, Shang Xia decided to bluff and put out all his trump cards in one go, as if he would kill the three opponents first and then escape.
Those three people were indeed fooled. Since their Fourth Heavenly Elder was on the way and had clearly taken the lead, they were naturally not afraid of Shang Xia breaking into the cave.
Anyway, the things in the cave cannot be taken away for a while.
It would be best if Shang Xia broke into the cave and didn't retreat in time, and the entrance of the cave was blocked by his fourth-level elders.
Watching the three of them retreat from the entrance of the cave, they did not forget to cooperate with each other to maintain the sword formation without any mistakes.
Shang Xia was determined to counterattack while his opponent was retreating, but he couldn't find a flaw for a while and could only let his opponent walk away.
Seeing that the other party was far away, Shang Xia boldly entered the cave where the stream originated.
Shang Xia was very fast. Although he didn't know whether the news the three people just said that the fourth-level heavenly warrior was coming was true or false, he couldn't bet that the other party wouldn't come.
Therefore, Shang Xia can only follow the guidance of the Sifang Stele as soon as possible to collect the origin of heaven and earth that may exist in the cave. It would be great if they could discover what the people of Changbai Holy Land discovered here.
The cave was very narrow when you first entered it, but the deeper you went, the more spacious it became. After walking more than ten feet, Shang Xia suddenly saw the light in front of him, and he had entered an underground cave.
Shang Xia couldn't care less about admiring the magnificent scene in the cave. At this time, his will perception became slightly stronger through the guidance of the four-square monument, which proved that he was getting closer to the origin of heaven and earth.
However, Shang Xia soon realized that the origin of heaven and earth discovered this time was probably far from comparable to that found in the Black Mud Swamp.
Shang Xia wandered around in this underground cave and somehow came to a remote place deep in the cave.
This place should have been naturally formed and accumulated extremely strong vitality of heaven and earth, but now the vitality of heaven and earth is overflowing, and there are obvious traces of excavation on the deep cave wall, as well as a shimmering light.
Shang Xia knew that he had found his destination, but as expected, people from the Changbai Holy Land had already arrived here first.
Shang Xia stepped into this place that was sunken from the cave wall, and immediately felt the existence of the faint origin of heaven and earth.
As Shang Xia's mind moved, strands of the origin of heaven and earth began to be absorbed by the Sifang Monument following the guidance of his will.
It's just that this time the Sifang Monument doesn't seem to be in a hurry, maybe it's because the source of heaven and earth that permeates here is too thin.
thing
In fact, if Shang Xia had not been guided by the Four Square Monument and his own will was extremely keen, other people would only feel that the vitality of heaven and earth was abnormally strong when they came here, and it would be difficult to realize the existence of the remaining origin of heaven and earth.
Although the Sifang Monument was absorbed very slowly, the remaining source of heaven and earth here was quickly absorbed.
During this process, Shang Xia carefully inspected the cave wall that was specially dug by the three Changbai disciples.
These three people may not have noticed the remnants of the origin of heaven and earth, but through the abnormal phenomenon of the gathering of heaven and earth energy here, they guessed what heavenly materials and earthly treasures might be hidden behind this cave wall.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The surface of the opened cave wall has a faint and crystal luster. The stones inside are soaked by the origin of heaven and earth, and some of them have begun to turn into jade. They can even be used as low-level extraordinary materials. for use.
Shang Xia stretched out his hand and grabbed a large jade stone. With a "crash" sound, a large piece of rubble fell down. There was a faint flash of warm brilliance in it, and then it was buried under the falling stone. Among the falling rocks.
"Huh?"
That bit of brilliance could not escape Shang Xia's eyes, but what surprised him was that he seemed to sense some familiar energy.
With a flick of his hand, he spread out the pile of rocks on the ground, and immediately revealed a round object the size of a pigeon egg inside.
"This is Yuanyu!"
Shang Xia held the object on his fingertips, feeling the warmth on its surface and the pure vitality contained inside, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
At the same time, Shang Xia also realized in his heart, no wonder the three Changbai disciples tried their best to prevent him from breaking into the cave. It turned out that there was most likely a Yuan Yu pit hidden here.
Although things like Yuan Yu are created by heaven and earth, it is extremely difficult to follow any rules.
But there are always surprises in everything. No one would have thought that a mass of the essence of heaven and earth would accumulate in the depths of this underground cave. After a long period of infiltration, the origin of heaven and earth became less and less, while the stones on the cave walls began to become jade. It is qualitative, and even Yuan Yu is directly generated inside.
The quality of Yuan Yu itself is not too high, but it is rare, and it has a wide range of uses. Whether it is the second or third level advanced formula, or smelting utensils, or practicing formations, this object can be used, so its value is real Not low.
Just seeing that Shang Xia had just broken off a piece and found a Yuan Yu, he knew the value of this mine.
Moreover, those jade-like rocks are themselves spiritual jade of excellent quality and are already worth mining.
"It seems that this cave where Yuan Yu can be mined must be reported to the academy as soon as possible. However, it may not be easy to take it back from the Changbai Holy Land."
After absorbing the origin of heaven and earth here, and unexpectedly getting a Yuan Yu, Shang Xia gained a little from his trip, but this place was obviously not a place to stay for a long time, and he soon left the cave and went elsewhere.
Shortly after Shang Xia left, a ray of light fell from the sky, and a fourth-level heavenly warrior from the Changbai Holy Land appeared outside the entrance of the cave.
…………
At this time, Shang Xia was hiding in the depths of a dense forest more than 20 miles away, using his own perception to check the changes on the square monument.
The underground cave where spiritual jade and even Yuan jade could be mined due to the influence of the origin of heaven and earth, was named "Yuan Yu Cave" by Shang Xia.
He harvested very little of the origin of heaven and earth from Yuanyu Cave, and even the three Changbai disciples themselves could not detect its existence. Shang Xia was only able to detect it with the guidance of the Sifang Stele and his own keen perception of will.
Sleep.
After absorbing all the found origins of heaven and earth, Shang Xia did not directly use them to calculate the last two values of the success rate and fit of the fourth-level advanced formula, but used them all to repair the cracks on the body of the Sifang Monument.
During the previous derivation of the recipe for the "Four Seasons and Four Scenes Reincarnation Brew", the state of the four-sided monument was that three sides of the monument were completely cracked, and the cracks on the only remaining fourth side of the monument had also extended to one-third of the monument. one place.
Later, although it was slightly repaired using the remaining source of heaven and earth, it only closed a small section.
This made Shang Xia always feel that the Sifang Monument was in a precarious state, as if it might completely collapse at any time.
What remains in Shang Xia's mind is that once the Sifang Monument is completely integrated with his own soul and will, I am afraid that Shang Xia's own soul and will will also be completely annihilated.
This is one of the reasons why the Shang and Xia societies were so eager to find the origin of heaven and earth.
Although the source of heaven and earth harvested this time is very small, Shang Xia still hopes to repair as many square monuments as possible.
Unfortunately, after the source of heaven and earth that had been absorbed was exhausted, the crack on the fourth side of the monument only closed a slightly longer crack than the last time, shortening the length of the crack to about a quarter of the length of the monument.
In fact, Shang Xia had discovered before that the damage caused to the Sifang Stele itself in the process of deducing the advanced formula, and the consumption of the heaven and earth essence caused by this, was completely disproportionate to the heaven and earth source consumed by repairing the Sifang Stele itself.
The latter requires a larger amount of the origin of heaven and earth!
This made Shang Xia worried.
By deducing the damage caused by the fourth-level advanced formula to the Sifang Stele itself as a comparison, Shang Xia thought that before he advanced to the fifth level, he must at least maintain the integrity of both sides of the Sifang Stele.
There is a long way to go to find the origin of heaven and earth.
Sighing slightly, Shang Xia took out a special secret message talisman from his arms.
This is a secret talisman distributed by the academy for calling for help or communicating before the war. Only students from Sanshe who participated in the war and warriors who have just graduated from Shangshe less than three years ago have it.
After Shang Xia obtained this talisman, they never used it even when they encountered Sima Xingxing and Huang Yunxiang.
It's not that Shang Xia was too powerful, but that the enemy was right in front of him at that time, and even if he wanted to use this talisman, it was too late.
Of course, this was mainly because Shang Xia had some trump cards that he had not used yet, so he felt somewhat confident.
Previously, Wind Thunder Leaves and Wind Song Grass were found under the cliff at the entrance of the mountain gate. This was because they had not been discovered there yet. The mature leaves and grass plants were picked and divided between him and Ren Huan. There were also thunderbirds leading the group. There is no need to worry too much about guarding.
But now the Yuanyu Cave is different. The Changbai Holy Land there has only just been discovered. There is still a chance to snatch it back before there is time to make more arrangements.
Shang Xia used his own energy to activate the secret message talisman. He first told the location of Yuanyu Cave and the current situation. After thinking about it, he also reported the discovery of the thunderbird tribe and the mountain gate wind belt, and then took a moment. Shen Yin also briefly mentioned the situation in the Black Mud Swamp, but hid the details of how he obtained the origin of heaven and earth. Finally, he released the secret message talisman and disappeared into the sky into a stream of light.
Shang Xia breathed a sigh of relief. After taking a short rest, he was thinking about whether to continue searching for traces of the origin of heaven and earth in the edge of the land, or to end this journey and return first. Suddenly, a stream of light flew from another direction. Stopped his train of thought.
