Xuanyin Cave is located in the southeast of the world of immortal cultivation in Southern Xinjiang. It is shrouded by Yin energy all year round. There are a large number of ghosts living there and a large amount of Yin-attribute materials growing there. It attracts a large number of immortal cultivators to hunt ghosts here. Most of these immortal cultivators died there. In Xuanyin Cave, only a few lucky people came out alive.
A blue escaping light appeared in the distant sky and flew towards here quickly.
After two breaths, the blue escape light stopped, and a flying boat with flashing blue light appeared. Shen Long and Lin Yutong stood on it, their faces solemn.
"This is the Xuanyin Cave! The yin energy is so strong, no wonder there are so many ghosts."
Lin Yutong's voice was heavy.
Following Lin Yutong's gaze, one could see a huge black hole, with gusty winds blowing, and one could clearly hear the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling.
"We proceed with caution, hoping to find the third-level evil beast."
Shen Long said, releasing the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada, and the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada's eyes bloomed with dazzling golden light.
With a pinch of his magic formula, the boat across the sea flew into Xuanyin Cave.
As the sea-crossing boat passed through the black hole, Shen Long felt his eyes change, and he appeared in a gray space with gloomy winds. The spiritual energy of the heaven and earth here was weak and the gloomy energy was strong.
Lin Yutong held a ghost hunting plate in hand, with a look of caution on his face.
The ghost-hunting disk shook slightly, and there was a harsh hissing sound.
"There's a ghost!"
Lin Yutong frowned and said.
Shen Long sacrificed the thunder bead and inserted a magic formula. A deafening sound of thunder came from high in the sky, and a silver lightning as thick as an adult's arm struck down and flew straight into the void somewhere.
At the same time, a sharp and harsh neighing sound sounded.
Silver lightning struck somewhere in the void, a shrill ghost cry was heard, and a golden spear wrapped in golden flames flew towards him and was submerged in the thunder.
The lightning dissipated, leaving a huge pit with black smoke on the ground.
Shen Long made a move with one hand, and a pigeon egg avenue black ball flew out and landed on his hand.
"A ghost in the core formation stage! I actually encountered a ghost in the core formation stage at the entrance."
Shen Long frowned and said.
"Fairy Lin, be more careful."
Shen Long warned.
Lin Yutong nodded, offered a white bead, and inserted a magic formula. The white bead burst out with dazzling white light, turning into a thick white light curtain, covering Shen Long and Lin Yutong.
The Yin Qi in Xuanyin Cave is very strong. If left there for too long, the Yin Qi will corrode the immortal cultivator's body. Treasure hunters need to use treasures to isolate the Yin Qi. In addition, they must also guard against sneak attacks by ghosts, which consumes a lot of mana.
Lin Yutong is mainly responsible for controlling the ghost hunting disk and defending against sneak attacks by ghosts. Shen Long can relax a little.
The cross-sea boat flew forward. Along the way, Shen Long encountered many ghosts, most of which were low-level ghosts. He urged the lightning beads to kill them all.
Occasionally, they encountered a ghost in the core-formation stage. Before it came within three hundred feet of them, it was discovered by the ghost-hunting board and killed by the power of thunder and lightning.
Thunder method is the nemesis of ghosts. In addition, the demon fire spewed by golden-winged fire ants is also very powerful. Shen Long also has third-level spiritual flames. Ghosts below the Nascent Soul stage are no match for Shen Long.
Less than half a month later, the cross-sea boat appeared above a vast black mountain range.
Shen Long held a piece of black animal skin in his hand and looked solemn.
"The people of the Five Saint Sect encountered the third-order Yinbo beast here. Let's search here, hoping to find the third-order Yinbo beast."
Shen Long said, with a pinch of magic, the cross-sea boat slowly flew forward. The eyes of the hundred-eyed golden cicada lit up with dazzling golden light, exploring the situation within a hundred miles.
There are a lot of black vegetation here, and the cold wind blows up some flying sand and rocks.
The void above them fluctuated together, and a dark ghost claw appeared out of thin air, hitting the white light curtain and making a muffled sound.
Lin Yutong frowned. There was nothing unusual about the ghost-hunting disk. It seemed that this ghost was proficient in the art of concealment.
The hundred-eyed golden cicada made a sharp chirping sound, and its body surface flashed with golden light.
When Shen Long's magic power was activated, the thunder beads burst out with dazzling silver light, and a silver thunder pillar with a diameter of about ten feet pierced the sky and struck a certain mountain.
The black light flashed, and a ferocious-looking ghost appeared, with a green face and fangs, blood-red eyes, and a looming body. It let out a shrill ghost cry and spewed out a black sound wave towards the silver thunder pillar.
The silver thunder pillar easily defeated the black sound wave. Just as Li Gui was about to avoid it, a sharp and harsh hiss sounded in its ears, making it suddenly dizzy.
The silver thunder pillar struck Li Gui's body, and the dazzling thunder light flooded the entire mountain, and the air waves rolled.
Before the thunder light dissipated, a golden spear flew towards him, was submerged in the thunder light, and flew out from the other end.
The lightning dissipated, and the entire mountain disappeared, leaving a huge crater with black smoke.
Shen Long made a move with one hand, and a black ball as big as a pigeon egg flew towards him and landed on his hand.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, this treasure of yours is so powerful! Coupled with your spiritual insects, the ghosts in the pill-forming stage will not be able to withstand even a few attacks."
Lin Yutong praised, with envy on his face.
"It's nothing. If you can get a thunder bead, you can also ask someone to refine it into a treasure."
Shen Long disagreed. Speaking of it, the power of thunder beads was indeed powerful, and it was very effective against barbarian monks and ghosts.
"I have stayed in the world of Beihai Immortal Cultivation for many years, and I have killed many third-level monsters with thunder attributes, but I have never been able to obtain thunder-attracting beads or thunder-absorbing beads."
Lin Yutong said in a regretful tone.
"There will be a chance in the future."
Shen Long said, controlling the sea-crossing boat to fly forward.
They searched tens of thousands of miles and killed many ghosts in the elixir-forming stage, but no third-level sinister beasts were found.
"It seems that the evil beast just passed by here, or was killed by other immortal cultivators."
Lin Yutong guessed.
Shen Long frowned and looked at the map in his hand, looking thoughtful.
A deafening explosion sounded, interrupting Shen Long's thoughts.
Shen Long frowned and opened his consciousness. His consciousness sensed that several powerful auras were moving towards here, and there was a frightening fluctuation of Yin Qi.
The eyes of the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada once again bloomed with dazzling golden light. To the northwest, fifty miles away, two pill-forming monks quickly passed through the sky, followed by a black shadow at a very fast speed.
"No, Nascent Soul stage ghost, run away."
Shen Long's expression changed, and with a pinch of magic, the boat across the sea lit up with a dazzling blue light, flew high into the sky, and soon disappeared.
The two pill-forming monks escaped for more than ten miles before being caught up by the shadows and letting out a shrill scream.
Seven days later, the cross-sea boat appeared above a rolling black forest.
"It probably isn't chasing us anymore. Fortunately, it was other Dan-forming monks who encountered the ghost in the Nascent Soul stage. If they hadn't delayed it for a while, we might not have been able to escape."
Lin Yutong said happily.
Shen Long nodded and said: "I didn't expect that we were so unlucky. We encountered Yuanying stage ghosts when we entered Xuanyin Cave. According to the intelligence, there are many Yuanying stage ghosts in Xuanyin Cave. I hope there won't be any in the future." Meet the ghosts in the Nascent Soul stage!"
With a pinch of his magic technique, the boat flew forward, not very fast.
There was a deafening explosion in the distance, vaguely mixed with Sanskrit sounds.
A huge green light lit up in the distant sky, and then, a blue rainbow flew towards here quickly.
The hundred-eyed golden cicada immediately looked towards the cyan rainbow. A flash of surprise flashed in Shen Long's eyes and he said, "Hey, it's Zen Master Xinkong."
"Fellow Daoist Shen, have you met someone you know?"
Lin Yutong asked curiously.
Shen Long nodded and said: "The monks from the Tiangui Sect are chasing Zen Master Xinkong. I must help, but the power of the Tiangui Sect is not small. Let's change our appearance! To avoid unnecessary trouble."
Zen Master Xinkong helped Shen Long save his mother who turned into a ghost, and Shen Long always remembered her.
He patted the shape-shifting lock on his chest, and a dazzling spiritual light lit up, drowning his figure.
The aura dissipated and Shen Long changed his appearance.
Lin Yutong also changed his appearance and looked into the distance.
Not long after, Zen Master Xinkong flew in from a distance. His body was dripping with blood, his breath was weak, and he looked like he was seriously injured.
"Two benefactors, please help me. I will be grateful to this poor monk."
Zen Master Xinkong said, his tone weak.
As soon as he finished speaking, ripples appeared in the void above his head, and a black ghost claw as black as ink appeared and slapped Zen Master Xinkong on the head.
Zen Master Xinkong reacted quickly. The green light in his right hand burst out and he struck out with one palm, defeating the black ghost claw.
A harsh sound broke through the air, and a black rainbow flew straight towards Zen Master Xinkong.
The black Changhong was moving very fast. Just fifty feet away from Zen Master Xinkong, a silver lightning pillar with a diameter of about ten feet pierced the sky and struck the black Changhong accurately. The silver thunder light drowned the black Changhong.
A black light flew from a distance. The flash stopped, and the light faded, revealing a flying boat with flashing black light. Two men and a woman stood on it. The leader was an old man in black robe with a big belly. , has the cultivation of the Great Perfection of elixir formation.
Judging from the marks on their clothes, they were obviously disciples of the Tiangui Sect.
"This person is the person we want to arrest, so we would like to ask two fellow Taoists to make it easier for him."
The old man in black robe said politely.
Shen Long and Lin Yutong's cultivation level was not high, and they showed no fear when facing them. They were obviously not ordinary alchemy monks.
"I'm sorry, but I obey!"
Shen Long's tone was indifferent.
He was really not afraid of two late-stage alchemy formations and one Dzogchen alchemy formation. At least he would have no problem escaping.
