Deep underground in the remnant land, Li Qiao's small Nascent Soul clone stayed quietly within the formation, as if asleep, while the formation continued to absorb the evil energy and converted it into ghost energy, which gathered in the formation. When the ghost energy is strong to a certain extent, Ah Piao will absorb the ghost energy just like going out to eat on time.
But as time went by, I don't know whether it was absorbed to the limit or for other reasons, but Ah Piao absorbed less and less ghost energy.
In this regard, clone Li Qiao has no good solution. He can only stop the absorption and transformation of the formation after the ghost energy reaches a certain level. Of course, he knows that the more ghost energy, the better, but the formation here is not strong enough. Continue Going down can easily lead to unknown troubles.
Although it is not clear how spirit ghosts are promoted, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to advance continuously and quickly. It takes some time to gradually change in a subtle way. Therefore, facing this situation, Li Qiao is not in a hurry.
At this time, he had already dealt with Master Xiyang's matter and returned to his family. In addition to practicing in a regular manner, he also studied formations and basically waited for Li Jincheng to take action before joining him.
During this period, all the collateral families received much less care from the main family, mainly because of the family's god-transforming monks. If there was no rush, then part of the energy would inevitably be allocated to continuously cultivate family monks, but now a god-transforming monk The monk doesn't have that much time and can't afford to wait for more family monks to grow up, and the other god-transforming monk will prevent any accidents from happening and will basically not leave the Six Phases Sect before trying to advance and return to the void.
The original Yuanying monks in the family are also waiting until they have reached the perfection of Yuanying cultivation, and then try to find opportunities to advance to become gods, and their thoughts are not on the family's collateral monks. Although they wait until whoever becomes a god monk in the future, the family monks If the number is too small, it will inevitably have some impact, but we can only wait until then to deal with it. If we can't even achieve the transformation of gods, there is no point in considering it further.
Now the only ones who can focus on the collateral families are the newly promoted Yuanying monks in the family. They have few cultivation resources and a lot of time. They can visit some collateral families as required and get some contributions.
After Li Qiao, another Jindan monk from the Li family was promoted to Nascent Soul, but this one, like Li Qiao, was waiting for the god-transformation monk Li Jincheng to find an opportunity.
Failure to advance will inevitably cause damage. According to the time mentioned before, the other party will leave the family soon. Therefore, Li Qiao and the two Nascent Soul monks have no special circumstances and will not leave the family.
Originally, Li Qiao thought that he would stay in the family like this, and then leave at a certain time with the family's god-forming monks, but many things always happened unexpectedly.
Deep in the ruins, there is another Nascent Soul ghost cultivator practicing here. He has stayed here for a long time. This Nascent Soul ghost cultivator also has three spirit ghosts on his hands. Every once in a while, he will put these The spirit ghost was released and allowed to wander deep underground in the remnant land.
It's not that he wants to free these spirit ghosts, but he regards the remaining evil spirits here as forbidden spirits. Even though he can't use them as a monk, he doesn't allow other strange monks to steal them. If he upgrades to a higher level in the future, the evil spirits will What to do if there is no more? Although there is still a lot of residual evil spirit, basically use a little less.
Because he ran deep underground, he was also worried that others would do the same, so he put these three spirit ghosts deep underground to patrol. He could check the underground evil spirit through his own connection with these spirit ghosts. .
The strength of a single spirit ghost is not strong, and it is easy to be harassed by other monks above the ground, so several foundation-building monks are sent to handle this matter alone. After the spirit ghost is placed underground for a period of time, the foundation-building monks will Take it to another fragment of the residual land. Because it takes a long time for the spirit ghost to travel underground to check, and the scope of the residual land is very large, it takes decades to check a reincarnation. This has already eliminated many things that do not have any evil spirit below. The situation after the residual paper.
It can be said that this Nascent Soul monk has a relatively good understanding of some of the evil spirits under the ground through the three spirit ghosts. Although the formation arranged by Li Qiao is clever and difficult to be discovered, the evil spirits around him are constantly being absorbed. Disappeared.
When the spirit ghost inspected this area, the ghost cultivator Nascent Soul found many obvious abnormalities compared with the previous ones.
"I actually encountered someone who stole food!" Nascent Soul Ghost Cultivator felt resentful in his heart, and controlled the spirit ghost to use perception to check whether there was any formation around him. Although the formation could not be found, it was still easy to find the location where it disappeared through the flow of evil energy. The range of the formation was confirmed.
Although he discovered it, this Nascent Soul cultivator did not act rashly. The opponent could run deep underground and build formations. He was at least a Jindan level cultivator. It was not impossible that he was at the same level as him or even stronger.
But it's impossible to just let it go. What if the other party is a golden elixir monk? Or what about a monk who was seriously injured and recuperating? However, it was impossible for him to check it himself, so he assigned one of the few remaining Jindan monks in the family to deal with it.
And he will check the situation from a distance. If he is sure that he can't offend the opponent, he will never show up. If he can control it, he will strike hard. As for the family's golden elixir monk, it is only needed at this time. Even if he dies because of it, it will be better than Three strong men died inexplicably before.
Although the family is a ghost cultivator family, not all the monks in the family are ghost cultivators. The family cannot have too few monks. But if they are all ghost cultivators, not only will there be insufficient cultivation resources, but they will also be easily discovered. Although most of them are just practicing Qi. There was a period of existence, but among them there was also a specially trained golden elixir monk, an earth attribute monk specially trained to deal with situations that occurred deep in the residual land.
Qiu Shangyue knew that this was not a good thing when he heard the instructions from the True Lord Yuanying of his family. Although he was dissatisfied, he could only go obediently. Earth attribute golden elixir monks can use Earth Escape. Although it will continue to consume real energy, as long as the time is not very long, there will be no problem.
Soon Qiu Shangyue found the underground formation under the guidance of Ling Gui. Basically without any hesitation, she took out the magic weapon and started to attack.
When the formation was attacked, the entire inside trembled. It was basically equivalent to the sleeping clone waking up instantly. I knew immediately that the formation was being attacked, but I didn't know whether it was because it was deep underground or the other party. It was just a test, and the attack intensity was not very strong, so Li Qiao did not think about escaping, but directly released his consciousness to check the situation outside. If it was not a big trouble, the clone would deal with it directly.
Because of the obstruction of the soil, the spiritual consciousness cannot be released very far, but with the spiritual consciousness of a golden elixir monk, one can know that there is a monk outside.
"Fellow Taoist, please stop!" Upon discovering this situation, Li Qiao immediately stopped practicing within the family, then teleported to a nearby area through the family's teleportation array, and then rushed over.
He didn't know how he was exposed, and he didn't know if there were other monks nearby besides this Jindan monk, so he didn't appear there directly through the family's long-distance teleportation array. If there were any monks above Nascent Soul Now, using teleportation is a free gift.
The clone spoke, just to buy a little more time, but Qiu Shangyue realized through his spiritual consciousness that the strength of the opponent's spiritual consciousness was only at the level of a foundation-building monk, so he didn't even bother to answer, but instead let go of his hands and feet, and vicious attacks came one after another. , this moment vividly demonstrated the law of the jungle in the world of cultivation.
Faced with this situation, Li Qiao could guess it, but there was no way to counter it. The formation had no offensive capabilities. After all, it was surrounded by soil. Traditional formation attacks would actually affect the stability of the formation. .
Normally, at this underground depth, it should be all rock formations, but under the corrosion of evil spirits for many years, it has already turned into a soil-like existence. How could you expect that an earth-attributed golden elixir monk would appear deep underground? The environment is also not conducive to the other party's cultivation.
The only advantage is that in order to maintain the Earth Escape, the opponent is also afraid that the repercussions of the attack will cause her to withdraw from the Earth Escape. The intensity of the attack is not very strong, and the formation can stand up briefly.
Seeing that the other party did not answer, Li Qiao stopped talking nonsense and tried to maintain the stability of the formation. Although he would not be able to hold on sooner or later, it would be good to buy more time.
At this moment, Li Qiao's body has appeared 20,000 miles away through teleportation. He is coming here quickly. If he has time, he will fly over. He only has one teleportation. If he can stay, he will be sure to leave if danger arises. Bigger.
If you feel it's too late, just teleport over and take the clone and Ah Piao next to you first.
The Nascent Soul ghost cultivator hiding behind noticed through the spirit ghost that his own Golden Core cultivator was constantly attacking the formation. After the other party had no reaction, he moved closer and then began to pay attention to the surrounding situation. If the other party was a family member Or the means left behind by the monks of the sect may arrive soon.
Li Qiao's clone in the formation felt so aggrieved for the first time. The clone was no match for him and could not move freely in the soil. Although Ah Piao could attack, there was no way he could be the opponent of the Golden Core cultivator. , especially within the scope of this residual land, the opponent must also have means to deal with ghost ghosts.
As for his spiritual consciousness, Li Qiao also hoped to scare the opponent away with his Nascent Soul-level spiritual consciousness, but he couldn't.
Not to mention that the clone's soul is very small, and the spiritual consciousness that can be released is limited. Secondly, the strength of the monk's spiritual consciousness is also related to the body. The clone is not a normal monk's spiritual body at all, otherwise the family's goddess-incarnation female cultivator would not be able to There is only one clone that can exert the strength of the foundation building stage. Even if the materials are limited, it should not be like this. It can only be said to be too restrictive.
This underground formation did not last long before it was breached by the opponent, but before that, the clone passed through the teleportation formation and arrived at another underground location carrying a storage bag.
This place is also deep underground, but compared with the previous place, although there are also protective formations and teleportation formations, the space is much smaller. After all, it is based on the compact size of the clone.
The purpose here is to hide temporarily and buy more time.
As for the Jindan monk who attacked the formation, apart from the strong ghost energy and the remaining formations around him, he did not find any monks. After confirming that the surroundings were sealed spaces, she turned her attention to the small above the teleportation array.
"Through the teleportation array? How is it possible?" Even if the opponent is a dwarf, he cannot leave such a small teleportation array. Rather than saying that this is a teleportation array, she prefers to believe that it is a short-distance teleportation array.
The spirit ghosts who followed felt the strong ghost energy. Although they also did not notice the presence of monks here, the ghost cultivator Nascent Soul felt more relieved.
It was obvious that the other party was also a ghost cultivator in the darkness like himself. His strength must not be much stronger, nor could he be a powerful cultivator. You must know that the most powerful thing in the world of immortality is inheritance. If the family inheritance had not been cut off, he would not have chosen ghost cultivation.
Take the golden elixir monk he sent as an example. He was at the golden elixir realm at most, because there was no follow-up cultivation method within the family. They would train each other just to have an earth-attributed golden elixir monk. Of course, he would not tell such a thing. Even if the other party had suspicions, it would be impossible to do anything. There might still be hope if he stayed in the family, but there would be no way out if he left the family.
However, the ghost cultivator Nascent Soul has also made up his mind. Once the other party has cultivated to the level of perfection of the Kuai Jin Dan, he will use the other party as a training material. Because occasionally, when he has free time, he often plays with the other party, and the other party's hopes finally come to nothing. Prevent situations that may lead to resentment or hatred.
The Golden Core cultivator underground didn't know this about himself, and thought that even if the family didn't have his own way to be promoted, as long as he pleased the family's True Lord Nascent Soul, it might be possible for him to help him find it.
So after discovering some abnormalities in the formation, she did not leave directly. She just released the Earth Escape here, recovered briefly, and then continued to search nearby.
Although this small teleportation array could not travel far, it could not be found in a short time, so when Li Qiao arrived invisibly, the clone's hiding place was still safe.
I was not in a hurry to do anything, but I observed it first and found nothing special. I know in my heart that this is not safe, but there are no blatant monks outside, and even if there are hidden monks, it is unlikely that they will be very strong.
With a thought in his heart, the clone activated the small teleportation array around him. However, the clone did not teleport out, but only caused spatial fluctuations of the teleportation on the ground.
Spatial fluctuations are different from others. The soil layer cannot effectively block it, so the Jindan monk deep underground can easily detect it. She has been finding nothing underground, so she does not hesitate, but goes directly to the ground, because she guessed It's possible that the guy from deep underground came out.
After appearing, her consciousness and sight did not find anything, so she went to the place where the teleportation wave had just appeared, but before she could get closer, a figure appeared directly next to her with an attack, and she did not reply to other people's words before. Monk Dan, in the next moment, rained blood all over the sky.
