Zhao Ning knew even better than them that it was Qin Keyuan's order to confine the Fengling Cave.
She bowed to the three of them, "Zhao Ning has not been affected by demonic thoughts, so he is naturally not afraid to go to the Fengling Cave. Zhao Ning's cultivation level is low, so he asked the three Burning Heaven Clan senior brothers from Lingwu Forest to take care of him."
The three of them didn't care much about Zhao Ning. Even if they were low in cultivation, they would not be able to become possessed by demons. Therefore, these people did not directly lead Zhao Ning out of the Spirit Mist Forest. Instead, they searched in the forest, seemingly looking for something.
Could it be that he still misses the Amethyst Bear?
After following for half a day, Zhao Ning barely knew the names of these three people.
The leader is Zheng Shao, who is at the seventh level of qi training. He is a close disciple of the Burning Heaven Clan’s real person Chi Yan. He practices the Burning Heaven Clan’s most powerful nine-level Nirvana True Flame Yuan Shen Dharma. He is highly valued by the sect. The other two are Chi Yan. Among Feng's inner disciples, the one who snickered was named Xu Gan, and the other one was named Wu Peng. They were both at the fifth level of Qi training.
"Xu Gan, is your news true? Although Huang Tingguo is not a heavenly material or earthly treasure, it is also a rare spiritual fruit. The Spiritual Mist Forest that has only been formed for thousands of years can be found in these unstable space cracks! "Wu Peng was very skeptical.
Huang Tingguo? Zhao Ning followed behind and glanced at the three of them without looking for any trace.
It takes five to six hundred years for the Huangting tree to sprout, bloom and bear fruit. Each time it bears only one Huangting fruit.
As far as Zhao Ning knows so far, there is a Huangting fruit in Jiling Mansion given by the demon monkey. If what Tian Hongjun and Zhu Laosan said during the conflict is true, there is also a Huangting tree.
If there is any news at this moment, it means that the third Huangting tree has appeared.
Can the Lingwu Forest, which is only a thousand years old, really grow so many Huangting trees?
"Why, if I lied to you, would I also lie to Senior Brother Zheng?" Xu Gan was dissatisfied, "I heard this news from the Danling Valley. I originally wanted to find out how to cleanse the spiritual roots from that generous guy. Yes, who would have thought that after drinking Baiweizhai Drunk Immortal Wine for three days and three nights, they didn’t find out the reason, but instead got the whereabouts of Huang Tingguo.”
He cupped his hands towards Zheng Shao, "I heard that I got the news from Ni Hui of the Danling Sect."
"Ni Hui? Ten years ago, in the four secret realm trials, he won the top three with his treacherous and changeable spiritual fire barrier, but he stole the show." Zheng Shao recalled this man. At that time, he was only at the third level of Qi training.
"Really, Ni Hui was already at the sixth level of Qi training ten years ago, but he was stuck on the small bottleneck of advancing to the seventh level of Qi training for ten years. For this Huang Tingguo, he spent a lot of money to contribute to the pavilion and the Sanxiu Alliance in Danling Valley. The mission hall released the mission, and I finally got the news a few days ago." Xu Gan smiled sinisterly, "He was originally going to participate in the Lingwu Forest encirclement and suppression mission, but he made me secretly interfere and was assigned to Qianren Mountain Range."
"I didn't realize that Junior Brother Xu has very long hands, and he can even manage the Contribution Pavilion in Danling Valley." Wu Peng said angrily.
Xu Gan snorted, "Before I entered the Burning Heaven Sect, I, Xu Gan, was known as the all-round know-it-all in Guiyuan City. Even if I join the Burning Heaven Sect, it's still enough to use some of my previous contacts to stir up the muddy waters at the outer gate of the Danling Valley." Xu Gan never forgot his flattery and said to Zheng Shao, "Brother Zheng, this Ni Hui can even be stuck in the small bottleneck of Qi training period for ten years. Huang Tingguo is not a waste of natural resources for him, but you should take it. In ten years, he will definitely achieve foundation building." .”
Zheng Shao felt physically and mentally refreshed by what he said, but he still had the demeanor of a real disciple closing his doors.
He took a few steps and suddenly turned back to stare at Zhao Ning. Perhaps Zhao Ning's silent presence was too low, and these people didn't even avoid Zhao Ning during this private business.
In the eyes of Zhao Ning, it was a private business, but in the eyes of them, it didn't seem to be that way.
"Spiritual fruits and elixirs are naturally nourished by the earth, and those who are capable will take them. If the news is not known to others, and Zheng and others are not afraid of making enemies, the little fairy will not be able to say whether they are afraid or not." Zheng Shao threatened, and the other two People are also oppressed by spiritual pressure. After all, they are people from a large sect. They are bound by the sect's rules and regulations in daily life, and they are not able to kill people with cold hearts to avoid future troubles.
Zhao Ning was meaningless. She even thought about the expressions of the three of them who had worked so hard to finally find a fruitless tree.
At this moment, a bear roar was suddenly heard not far from the west, and then it turned into a cry.
The distance between these two sounds was so short that even Zhao Ning couldn't help but look over there several times.
The attention of several people was instantly captured.
Wu Peng's face turned ugly, "It's the roar of the Amethyst Bear. Who the hell stole our prey?"
"It's the prey we let go, what do we care about him?" Xu Gan didn't care much, "And Huang Tingguo's position is about to arrive, so I'm distracted from caring about him at this time..."
"Go and have a look." Zheng Shao interrupted Xu Gan and turned directly to the west.
"Senior Brother Zheng?" Xu Gan chased after him in confusion.
Zheng Shaodao said, "Since Huang Tingguo is nearby, and there are unknown masters nearby, can Huang Tingguo still achieve success? Stupid, we need to find out first!"
Wu Peng's face turned darker when he heard what Zheng Shao said. He followed a few steps without forgetting Zhao Ning behind him.
"Follow me, don't try to escape while the white mist stretches the distance."
Wu Peng and Zhao Ning were a few steps behind when they arrived at the place where the Amethyst Bear was crying. What they saw was a charred bear corpse with the amethyst removed from its forehead.
Xu Gan tentatively kicked the Amethyst Bear corpse, but as soon as he touched it, the corpse turned into fly ash.
"Fire element?" Zheng Shao turned to look at Xu Gan, "Who are the fire element monks from the four major sects and the Loose Cultivator Alliance in Lingwu Forest these days?"
Xu Gan scratched his head, "Both our Burning Heaven Clan and the Danling Sect major in the fire element. The Qingxiao Sect also has the fire element Yuanshen Dafa. There are many fire element monks, but if they are still in the Lingwu Forest with such strength, Yes, apart from our sect, there are only Luo Jie who is on the sixth level of Qi training from the Danling Sect, Zeng Hong who is on the seventh level of Qi training from the Sanxiu Alliance, and by the way, the proud man of the Qingxiao Sect who has a single fire spirit root is also here."
"That Jia Rui?" Zheng Shao said the name very quickly.
Zhao Ning was not surprised. She had heard that Jia Rui was very popular in Qingxiao Sect.
Wu Peng did not agree, "Jia Rui made an exception and joined the Qingxiao Sect half a year ago. Even if his single spiritual root cultivation is rapid, he is only at the third level of Qi training. How can he have such strength? Are you kidding?"
"I just mentioned that this person is here. Don't forget that the Qingxiao Sect's fire element soul method is not much weaker than our sect's." Xu Gan glared at Wu Peng, and then raised his hand to Zheng Shaogong, " Senior brother, according to my opinion, it is probably Luo Jie from the Alchemy Sect. I heard that he has been refining fire-avoiding pills recently, and the purple flame fire extracted from amethyst is very effective."
"Luo Jie? It doesn't matter. This guy is only at the sixth level of Qi training, which is enough for him." Zheng Shao thought for a moment, "Go to Huang Tingguo's place."
Xu Gan hurriedly led the way. Half a beat after Zhao Ning, he saw the wind blowing softly in the forest, and the ashes of the amethyst bear corpse were floating away. There was a piece of black hair the size of a fingernail hidden in the ashes.
She didn't bother to check or remind anyone, she just followed.
After burning an incense stick, Xu Gan pointed to a pothole.
"Yes, it's right here. The news is that a monk who was in the early stage of Qi training accidentally fell in while escaping from a monster in the fog. He saw that there was another space inside, and there was also a shining golden fruit tree."
One tree?
Zhao Ning patrolled around and compared it with the map of Lingwu Forest in his memory. He easily found that this place was near the conflict between Tian Hongjun, Zhu Laosan and others. By coincidence, this place was also near the space crack in Qianyuan Cave Mansion.
She was steep and silent. Can a Huangting tree bear three fruits in just ten days?
Chapter 058
This pothole is not that easy to get into.
Before Zheng Shao and others went in, they left Zhao Ning outside the cave, cast a shadow-chasing spell on her body, and told her, "If any monster escapes, find a way to kill it, and at least not alert other sects." Door man."
Zhao Ning responded, and when he saw them entering, he was startled by the chirping of bats. Fortunately, Zheng Shao and others were not just ordinary people. The magic light flashed continuously in the hole, and there was nothing he could do about the thousands of monster bats in the hole. After resisting, after a while, sporadic demon bats came out of the cave entrance. Before they had time to get into the white mist, they were killed by the Chayue Sword, neatly.
It took a full stick of incense for the bats in the cave to stop screaming. Zhao Ning looked around. The white mist made it difficult to detect anything unusual.
Zhao Ning came down from the rugged rock wall of the pit. There were luminous sand everywhere in the pit. Because of the battle just now, the bottom of the pit was covered with bat corpses. Bat blood was splashed everywhere, but there was a pool of clean water at the bottom. The water surface is like a mirror, and the bottom of the pool cannot be seen clearly.
Zheng Shao and others stood by the pool. When they saw Zhao Ning coming down, Zheng Shao asked, "Is there any movement?"
Zhao Ning said, "The bats that escaped from the pit didn't make any movement."
Zheng Shao nodded, his eyes falling on this extraordinary pool of water.
"Is it the entrance to the small secret realm?"
Xu Gan observed for a long time, "It should be that the water in the pool is bottomless. There are so many bat corpses that just fell. It is impossible for them to disappear without a trace in the water in an instant. They must have fallen into a small secret realm."
Zheng Shao glanced at Wu Peng, who immediately understood, activated a wooden armor talisman and jumped straight into the water. The water made waves, but it had no effect of entering the water. Instead, it disappeared instantly on the water.
Seeing this, Zheng Shao jumped in, and Xu Gan quickly followed. He paused at the edge of the pool and turned his head to look at Zhao Ning, "You stay up there and don't move around. If someone comes, immediately send a message to the small secret realm. "
Zhao Ning nodded, "I won't run around."
After the three of them left, Zhao Ning found a stone half a person's height and sat on it. She stared at the mirror-like water, still thinking about the previous problem.
The news that there is a Huang Ting tree in Lingwu Forest is not too secretive. After all, when Tian Hongjun was arguing with Zhu Laosan and others in the ancient medical hall that day, he didn't cover up his voice at all. So if the Huang Ting tree was picked intentionally, He could also know, but looking at Zheng Shao and others, they seemed to know nothing.
Zhao Ning glanced at the entrance of the pit. The white mist outside began to rise again. The inside of the pit gradually dimmed. The fluorescent light of the night sand flashed. For a blink of an eye, there seemed to be a shadow flashing across the top of the pit.
Zhao Ning jumped directly into the small secret realm in the pool without hesitation. If he waited at the bottom of the pit for someone to come, wouldn't he be a cannon fodder for nothing.
It only took a blink of an eye to enter the small secret realm. After my eyesight adjusted, I realized that this was a small space, not underwater, but a strange underground cave, about ten feet in length, and I could see it all at a glance.
Zheng Shao and others were fighting with a monster bat. This monster bat was all white, with its wings spread ten feet wide. Its two claws were as sharp as eagle hooks, and the tips of its fangs were stained with blood. It was a first-order mutant spirit beast. He was on par with the three of them, and his strength was estimated to be equivalent to the seventh or eighth level of Qi training.
Zhao Ning quickly retreated to the edge, looking past their fight and landing on a small tree only three feet high on the land in the corner of the pool. The small branches were lush and leafy, and the water around him echoed the water above him, creating a series of clear light beams. , and a palm-sized golden spiritual fruit dropped from the top of the tree crown, which was the mature Huangting fruit.
Sure enough, it was the third ripe Huangting fruit.
"Why are you down here!" During the fight, Xu Gan, who was not the main force, glanced at Zhao Ning and his face changed, "Is someone coming?"
"I couldn't see clearly above the pothole."
"Damn it!" Xu Gan cursed angrily, and used a blast of fire to help Zheng Shao blast away the approaching demon bat. He took a few steps closer to Zheng Shao and reminded him, "Oh no, Senior Brother Zheng is ambushing us. There are people blocking us outside." We, we can’t fight this beast for too long.”
Wu Peng raised his eyes and stared at the bottom of the pool. The water was still clear, except for the fluorescence of the luminous sand, making it impossible to see anything else clearly.
"Senior brother, I'll kill you first! How dare you plot against us and make them suffer." Wu Peng roared.
"Stop!" Zheng Shao threw out a blast of flames and scolded Wu Peng with his brows furrowed in the Chinese character "Chuan". "Let them come, isn't it Luo Jie! They are all at the sixth level of Qi training and yet they are afraid of him. He really thinks this demonized Can the Bat King hurt me, Zheng Shao?"
As he spoke, he called the two of them away, and quickly made complicated and strange tricks on his hand. After a few breaths, a dharma seal appeared in his palm.
"The First Level of Nirvana and Lihuo Jue!" Xu Gan and Wu Peng said in surprise at the same time.
This is a Qi-training Taoist method created by the ancient power of the Burning Sky Sect, coupled with the Nine-layer Nirvana True Flame Primordial Spirit method. It is one of the most powerful Qi-training Taoist methods in the entire Kunxu cultivation world.
The seal blasted out, and a phoenix condensed with flames chirped out, coiled twice around the Demon Bat King, and penetrated directly through its back and abdomen. The flaming phoenix dispersed, and the Demon Bat King fell to the ground with a cry, and his body was burned to charcoal.
This technique is much more powerful than the basic techniques circulated in the market. Zhao Ning looked at it in awe. No wonder there are so many casual cultivators trying to get into the sect.
After withdrawing his remaining strength, Zheng Shao swayed, and Wu Peng and Xu Gan quickly went to help him from left to right.
Xu Gan never forgets to flatter him at all times, "Senior Brother Zheng is really talented, but he can master the Nirvana Lihuo Art in the middle of Qi training. As long as he successfully obtains the Huang Ting Fruit, in time, Senior Brother will definitely become the chief disciple of Fentian Clan."
Wu Peng has never been a flatterer, he can only nod along and say "opposite pole to pole".
Although Zheng Shao said that his spiritual power was not enough after using Taoism, he took a Huiyuan Pill amidst their flattering words and felt relieved in his heart.
Feeling the power of the Huiyuan Pill spreading through the seven meridians and eight meridians, he tilted his chin in the direction of the Huang Ting Guo, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry and pick the Huang Ting Guo."
Xu Gan immediately responded, and Yufeng flew towards the Huangting tree. However, his stretched palm was still half a foot away from the Huangting tree, and a wind blade was thrown towards him. Xu Gan was startled, and immediately turned around to avoid it, landing outside the pool. layer.
His eyes turned to the water above his head, "Come out!"
"Hahahahaha, how could Fellow Daoist Zheng monopolize this Huang Ting Guo without waiting for my younger brother to come?"
Before anyone could see him, the sound came down through the water above his head.
Seeing this, Zhao Ning used a concealment technique and hid in the cracks of the rock wall.
"Luo Jie!"
Zheng Shao immediately shook Wu Peng away who was supporting him, and holding on to his body whose spiritual power had not yet fully recovered, he straightened his back and gritted his teeth.
Soon, there were ripples in the water above the head, and two figures got in and landed opposite Zheng Shao.
They were wearing long moon-white clothes and looked at the opposite side one after another.
The man in front looked at Zheng Shao with a smile and said, "Friend Zheng, long time no see."
