167 Mysterious and dangerous caves
"A thousand-year-old spirit washing flower!"
Su Chen couldn't help but look at the past.
He had spent several years adventuring tens of thousands of miles in Yunmengze.
Naturally, it was very clear that even in the top ten dangerous places of Yunmengze, it was very rare to find spiritual herbs that were more than three hundred years old.
The Immortal Sect's mission once every ten years in Chaoge Immortal City forced those peak Qi refining cultivators to scrape three feet in the vast Yunmengze and venture to all possible places to search for spiritual herbs that were more than a hundred years old.
Even in some deep-water lakes, where many first-order demon beasts are entrenched, spiritual herbs that can grow to two or three hundred years are very rare. There are always a few peak Qi refining masters who can find those spiritual herbs hidden in the depths.
However, in this mysterious underground cave, there are thousands of spiritual herbs.
This means that no one has been here for at least a thousand years.
Who doesn't blush?!
Don't talk about loose cultivation like Su Chen.
Even if they are the descendants of the ten great families of Chaoge, Zhou Baoxi, Zhuang Bufan, Song Yun, Tang Changsong and many other family monks, they have never seen even a spiritual herb that has grown for thousands of years.
"This..."
All the monks were stunned for a moment, and they all took a deep breath and froze their expressions.
They were shocked,
At the same time, there is an incomparably strong desire to possess in the bottom of my heart, which is spreading wildly.
In this mysterious cave underground, the aura is richer than that of Yunmengze and Chaoge Ling Mountain.
And this cave is very huge, and what they see is only the tip of the iceberg.
Since one plant is found growing at the mouth of this cave, it is possible that a second plant and a third plant may grow in the depths of the cave... Even if dozens of plants are found in one go, it is not surprising at all.
Not to mention Chaoge Immortal City, even if it is the five great immortal sects of Shenzhou, there is a lack of spiritual herbs for more than a thousand years.
Any thousand-year-old spirit herb can sell thousands of spirit stones. In this unknown mysterious cave, it is likely to contain monstrous immortal cultivation resources, which can be inexhaustible for a foundation building monk!
The thousand-year-old spirit herbs here can not only complete the tasks of the Immortal Sect, but also allow them to successfully enter the Five Great Immortal Sects. What's more, let them still cultivate without worry after building the foundation... Until he successfully won the Jindan Avenue and squeezed into the ranks of the high-level elders of the Five Great Immortal Gates.
At that time, they were not only the foundation-building disciples of the Five Great Immortal Sects that were envied by the Chaoge Immortal City. Even in the Five Great Immortal Sects of Shenzhou, they are also the Jindan seniors that all the foundation building monks look up to.
The problem is, there are more than twenty Qi Refining Stage cultivators here!
Everyone will divide it equally, and there will be not much of the resources that fall into everyone's hands. Maybe it's enough for them to worship the Five Great Immortal Sects. However, if you want to cultivate from Zhuji to Jindan, it will definitely not be enough.
This made each of them feel like an itch in their hearts, painful and hateful.
...
Zhuang Bufan stared at the thousand-year-old spirit flower in the spirit pool, his face was cloudy and changeable, the green tendons of his slender palm burst out, and he involuntarily clenched the spirit sword on his waist.
"Kill everyone and swallow all the cultivation resources in this underground cave?"
He had an incomparably strong desire in his heart.
It's just that the ridicule and humiliation he received in the Zhuang family since he was a child made him learn to hide his desires. It took him more than ten years to wear a face that disgusted him with the "gentle and graceful Zhuang Gongzi", and washed away all the ridicule and humiliation he suffered since childhood.
Unless there is enough temptation to risk him tearing this face. And the potential resources of this underground karst cave have already made the heartbeat of the youngest patriarch of the Zhuang family accelerate sharply, and it is worth the risk.
In terms of strength, he Zhuang Bufan certainly has enough strength to kill all the ninth-level Qi refining stage cultivators here in one fell swoop. Including Zhou Baoxi, the ninth-layer Qi refining Tianjiao of the ice system spirit essence, he couldn't compete with him.
Because, the second method of the Zhuang family's ancestral "Mayfly Chapter", "Transformation Technique", can allow him to break through the twelfth layer of the Qi refining period and be proud of all the monks.
And the more terrifying third method "Feather Technique" stimulates all the vitality and longevity, and directly allows him to step into the "pseudo-foundation".
"Pseudo-foundation" is not really foundation-building.
It's just that the Feather Trick has unleashed its full potential, almost burning out the last ten years of life, reaching the strength of a foundation building monk. But there are only 100 days left to live, so the word "pseudo" was added.
The only way to crack it is to take the foundation building pill and step into the real foundation within this short hundred days, so as to crack the life of the hundred days. Otherwise, like a mayfly, once a hundred days have passed, after a period of incomparable splendor, it will die immediately.
Fortunately, this is not a big problem either. The official disciples of the Five Great Immortal Sects will all be given a Tsukidan.
The strength of the pseudo-foundation building is the same as that of the foundation building monks, and the more than twenty ninth-level Qi refining stage cultivators here are not his opponents together!
Zhuang Bufan also dares to kill.
Whoever stands in his way, he dares to kill. Twenty years ago, when he was a ten-year-old boy, he spent three years trying his best to kill the eldest son of the Zhuang family. So far, no one knows that it was him, and today he stood out from the competitors in the family and became the youngest patriarch of the Zhou family, otherwise this patriarch would not be his turn.
The only thing worth worrying about was that all the ninth-level Qi refining cultivators in the five squads died, but he was the only one who survived.
It's suspicious.
After he went back, how did he explain to the families of Chaoge Immortal City?
Most of the more than twenty late-stage Qi refining cultivators here are descendants of the Chaoge family. The death of so many Qi Refining Stage disciples in one breath shocked Chaoge Immortal City, and their family must have gone crazy to investigate the matter.
Chaoge Immortal City now has dozens of envoys from various immortal sects, all of whom are foundation building monks from various families. Once they intervene in the investigation and find clues and suspect his words, the consequences will be unimaginable.
'No!'
Zhuang Bufan took a deep breath, and suppressed his crazy desire to kill everyone and swallow this underground cave alone.
Unless he can find a way to not show any of his feet, he must not kill them all... At most, find a suitable excuse to kill some of them and reduce some people to share the spoils.
...
It's not just Zhuang Bufan who is murderous.
All the monks were thinking in their hearts, if someone started to fight for the thousand-year-old spirit grass in this cave, would they kill it or not?
Everyone was quite jealous in their hearts, and their faces were cloudy.
Song Yun and Tang Changsong, the two team leaders, are from the Song family and the Tang family respectively, and they have cultivated to the peak of the ninth layer of the Qi refining period at an age, and their ancestral mastery is not weak, but their reputation is inferior to Zhuang Bufan and Zhou Baoxi.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a brocade-clothed monk stepped a little, and his figure turned into a shadow and instantly rushed towards the spirit pool, wanting to snatch the thousand-year-old spirit washing flower spirit herb in his hand.
Brush!
A golden flash of lightning slashed at his lower back.
The brocade-clothed monk was shocked, and hurriedly gave up to snatch the spirit flower, jumped away for a few feet, drew the spirit sword, looked back at a brown-clothed monk and said, "Chu Li, what do you want to do? If you dare to kill me, your name will be on the wanted list of Chaoge City!"
All the squads immediately pulled out their spirit soldiers, their swords rattling, and they all stared at the monks of the other squads vigilantly. If they start fighting, they must help their own people first.
Su Chen glanced at Wu Qiaofu and Old Master Lu, and quietly took a few steps back, blocking in front of Anu and Zhang, who were weak in mana.
If the monks fight in a chaotic battle for the sake of grabbing, the only way to protect themselves is to wait for the right time.
"Hmph, that's also your first robbery. ”
The brown-clothed monk didn't continue to make a move, put away the golden spirit knife, and said coldly: "This thousand-year-old spirit flower is seen by everyone, Brother Wang is so eager to get it alone? According to the first-come, first-served rule, it is also the first person to see it, and it is not your turn to take it! If the person who sees it has a share, it is also a good benefit!"
The monk surnamed Wang also seemed to know that he was a little wrong, and forcibly defended himself: "This cave is so big, there must be a lot of thousand-year-old elixir. You can keep looking for it, why do you have to fight with me. ”
Zhou Baoxi glanced at the two of them, and said angrily: "Both of you, both of you have fled for your lives and fallen into this situation, you still have the heart to fight for the spirit grass!"
I don't want to think about it, we are sucked into this underground cavern by the undercurrent, and we can't get out of the same way. What if there is no other exit and you are completely trapped here? Even if you grab a lot of thousand-year-old spirit washing flowers, what can you do with them, and you can't do alchemy here?"
The monks of the squad couldn't help but be stunned, and then there was silence, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly.
Zhou Baoxi's words are right.
They haven't explored this huge underground cavern yet.
Let's find a way out first, and then talk about anything else.
Otherwise, if there is no way out, they will be completely trapped in this underground cavern. There is no way to complete the task of the Immortal Sect, let alone become a foundation building monk.
"Look at Miss Zhou, and then look at you! Be generous, don't be so unproductive like a loose cultivator who has never seen the world! Let's go, go and see how many heavenly treasures there are in this cave." ”
Zhuang Bufan said lightly, and walked in front with his hands in hand.
The monks silently walked to the depths of this cave, only a little more than a mile away. Sure enough, the cliffs of this huge karst cave, the spiritual pool, can be seen everywhere strange flowers and plants, many of which are spiritual herbs, and after a while, I saw five thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, and no less than dozens of hundreds of years of spiritual herbs.
However, they did not have the slightest excitement at the moment, but felt a burst of creepy.
They found on the ground of the cave a skeleton lying or sitting. Or was killed by the spirit sword and spirit knife, or the cause of death was unknown, and the silk was killed by the demon beast.
The bones of these Terran monks have not been completely dissolved. Some are left over from hundreds of years ago, while others are new from the last hundred years.
Song Yun couldn't help but be startled when he saw a corpse wearing the Song clan uniform lying on the rock wall, stepped forward quickly, turned over a clan card from the bones, and was stunned for a long time before he said sadly: "This is an uncle of my family.... Seventy years ago, he disappeared in Yunmengze without any news. I didn't think about it, I actually lost my life here!"
The monks were saddened, and they suddenly realized that they had far underestimated the number of Terran immortal cultivators who had entered this underground cave.
In the past thousand years, I am afraid that they are far more than the only monks who have entered this underground cave.
However, these immortal cultivators from Chaoge City have all become dry bones on the ground, and no one has ever walked out.
The monks looked at the cave in front of them, and while they were terrified, they were even more chilled in their hearts. No one in the outside world knows about this mysterious underground cave, what does this mean?
