When Lu Ye opened his eyes, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Time always flew by while practicing.
Lu Ye smiled, but was startled when he stood up. In front of him, there were still good things obtained from the two spiritual crystal beasts, but next to them there were a lot more Fire Cloud Fruits, and even some
A few stiff-bodied tailless black-bone chickens.
"Little Mink, did you catch it?" Lu Ye asked, looking at the lying little Mink.
The little mink waved its little paws and even patted its chest childishly, "Zhichzhizhi!"
Lu Ye smiled warmly, "Thank you very much!"
Looking at the tailless black-bone chicken, a feeling of hunger suddenly arose. Lu Ye swallowed his saliva, summoned a pile of dead wood, waved his green light short blade, bled a tailless black-bone chicken, plucked its feathers, and hung it directly on the bonfire.
Lu Ye has already eaten four tailless black-bone chickens in this way, and he is quite skillful in using his green awn short blade to handle tailless black-bone chickens. However, if senior Ye Tiannan is here and sees Lu Ye using the green awn short blade he gave him
If you kill a chicken, you will probably be angry to death.
Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? Moreover, the green awn short blade is countless times more valuable than a butcher's knife!
The tailless black-bone chicken took much longer to bake than ordinary animals. During this time, Lu Ye stopped practicing and started playing with the mink.
The play of one person and one beast is also quite special. On the dim Cangling Peak, next to the burning flames, Lu Ye and Xiao Diao were ten meters apart, and a ball of white light that made bursting sounds from time to time appeared between one person and one beast.
Jumping back and forth.
This light ball is the spiritual light ball condensed by the little mink.
Xiao Diao is already in the middle stage of the Pulse Condensation Realm and is very proficient in the use of spiritual power. Even subtle fluctuations in spiritual power cannot escape Xiao Diao's control.
In the past, this ball of light would naturally suffer some damage if it was touched by Lu Ye. But at this moment, under Xiao Diao's control, the power of this ball of light has been reduced to a minimum.
When the light ball hit, Lu Ye condensed the purple energy in his hands, gently held the spiritual light ball in mid-air, and then threw it to Xiao Diao. Although it seemed easy, the danger involved was obvious.
This kind of throwing, even if it is a slowed-down attack, can be dangerous if you are not careful. Therefore, although this is just a game, for Lu Ye, it subtly improves the control of energy.
The little mink on the other end looked much more relaxed. When the light ball came over, the little mink just moved its small claws, and a bright white light suddenly appeared between its five fingers. With the help of the light ball, it threw it again, throwing it and collecting it, with great ease.
One side is cautious and the other side is relaxed, and time flies by playing like this.
The tangy aroma of meat was blown away by the wind, and drops of grease fell from the tender meat of the tailless black-bone chicken into the bonfire. Lu Ye and Xiao Diao also removed the spiritual light balls and sat back down again.
He took out a few ripe Fire Cloud Fruits from a pile of Fire Cloud Fruits beside him and threw them to the little mink. Lu Ye himself unceremoniously moved around a tender and juicy chicken drumstick and started to nibble on it.
While gnawing wildly, Lu Ye let out a comfortable hum from time to time, and his eyes fell on the little mink intentionally or unintentionally. Lu Ye's eyes were full of smiles.
"Would you like to eat?" Lu Ye held out the chicken leg and asked the little mink. Then, without waiting for the little mink to react, he immediately put it in his mouth and took a big bite. He teased vaguely, "I know you don't want to eat, so eat more and make some fire."
Yun Guo is good for you."
"Look at your small body and your flesh and bones. I would be embarrassed to say that you are in the middle stage of the Pulse Condensation Realm when you go out. If you don't know better, I would have thought you were just an ordinary little mink."
After saying this, Lu Ye burst into laughter and ate the tailless black-bone chicken with great relish. On the contrary, the little mink did not eat monster meat, but he couldn't help Lu Ye showing off like this. With a wave of his little paw, he whole
The Fire Cloud Fruit is put directly into your mouth.
After a few clicks, a Fire Cloud Fruit was already in his stomach, and Xiao Diao kept staring at Lu Ye with a particularly resentful look, as if there is nothing to show off, I caught this tailless black-bone chicken!
Under Xiao Diao's resentful eyes, Lu Ye finished the tailless black chicken in three gulps. After burping, he said to Xiao Diao, "Little Diao, we'll stop here today, and you should go to bed early."
Tomorrow morning, if there is still time, we will continue to go out and practice just like today."
Xiao Diao nodded helplessly, and after watching Lu Ye leave, without saying a word, he fell to the ground without any chance of breathing, and fell asleep directly.
As Xiao Diao acquiesces, Xiao Diao's cultivation is indeed very special. It is different from ordinary monsters and human warriors. Since childhood, Xiao Diao's cultivation has been quietly improving by just sleeping.
Xiao Diao didn't know much about this, let alone Lu Ye. Today, Xiao Diao was a little too tired. Although he was in the middle stage of the Pulse Condensation Realm, he was considered a powerful existence among the monster beasts. But the spiritual crystal beast, in the monster race
He is also quite famous in China, and his cultivation level is even higher than that of Xiao Diao.
At that time, if it hadn't been for Xiao Diao's sudden and strange explosion, Lu Ye and Xiao Diao would have turned into clay.
Although the winner of this battle was decided in a flash of lightning, Xiao Diao was already very tired.
The sooner you go to sleep, the sooner you can return to your mink's true peak state.
As for Lu Ye, after returning to the Linghe Formation, he did not return directly to the thatched cottage. Instead, he looked around at the tombstones and began to clean them. At dawn today, Lu Ye and Xiao Diao went out to practice and did not have time to clean the tombstones.
Today's work is done today, this is Lu Ye's principle.
There are more than a hundred tombstones in the Forest of Steles, large and small. For Lu Ye, who has been in Qingyang Sect all year round, although there are many tombstones, cleaning them is not too troublesome.
But today, in the dead of night, after cleaning half of the hundreds of tombstones, Lu Ye had an extremely strange feeling.
He felt that there were no tombs under these tombstones! In other words, although these tombstones recorded the buried strong men, there was no such strong man underneath them, and there was nothing underneath except soil!
With purple eyes, although Lu Ye has not advanced to the Pulse Condensation Realm, his perception of Zhou Tian's spiritual energy is not much different from that of a warrior in the early stage of the Pulse Condensation Realm.
Outside the Linghe Formation, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was rich, but within the Linghe Formation, Lu Ye could not feel the existence of a trace of spiritual energy.
Lu Ye's perception of aura is the same as his perception of tombs. There is no difference between feeling under the ground when leaving the Forest of Steles and feeling under the ground at the tombstone!
If there were tombs on the ground, Lu Ye could clearly see them through his purple pupils. After all, warriors spend their entire lives tempering their bodies. And those buried in the Forest of Steles are all powerful men of the Qingyang Sect from past generations.
Naturally, all the strong men who can enter this forest of steles were those who were once famous in the Qingyang Sect and even the Skyfire Domain. Even if such a strong man dies, even if he has been dead for many years, his bones will still have a very powerful power.
pressure.
But Lu Ye really didn’t feel it!
"Senior, I'm sorry!"
Standing in front of a tombstone, Lu Ye bowed and saluted, then took out the short green light blade. After a wave of energy, the short green light blade suddenly sank into the soil under the tombstone.
Lu Ye has always believed in his purple pupils. So now, Lu Ye wants to personally verify whether there are any tombs in this forest of steles.
This forest of steles records the life of the strong man buried there. This strong man was named Zhou Wuyan. It is recorded on the tombstone that Zhou Wuyan passed away twenty years ago. Before his death, it was the time when his martial arts was at its peak.
His cultivation level is no less than that of the current sect master at the perfection stage of the Spiritual Martial Realm, and he is also a soul-drawing master who is famous in the Heavenly Fire Domain.
Digging someone's grave is a treasonable sin. Moreover, this strong man named Zhou Wuyan was once the top strong man in the Qingyang Sect.
But in order to verify his conjecture, Lu Ye could no longer care so much.
He has to guard Cangling Peak for half a year. Lu Ye can't even know what he is guarding.
With the protection of the spirit combination formation, the Forest of Steles has not suffered much damage over the years, and the soil inside is just like the outside, with the unique fragrance of soil.
The green light short blade continued to strike out, rolling up a lot of soil. After a while, there was a small earth bag and a small deep pit next to the tombstone.
This deep pit was seven feet deep. The moonlight was like water, and it had purple pupils. Lu Ye could see more clearly.
Under the deep pit, there is still dirt, indeed nothing.
"Why are there no tombs here?"
Having dug so deep, the perception is still the same as before, and digging further is in vain. Lu Ye frowned and thought deeply, but Lu Ye, who is only an outer disciple, has no way of knowing the core secrets of Qingyang Sect.
Lu Ye was still confused about this, and he couldn't even determine the reason.
"But at least, my suspicion has been verified."
Lu Ye nodded, bowed to Zhou Wuyan's tombstone again, and immediately buried the soil rolled up into the deep pit.
Lu Ye was careful, for fear of damaging Zhou Wuyan's tombstone. After a while, the soil buried the hole, and there was no trace of it being disturbed.
Sighing, Lu Ye stopped worrying about these things and headed directly to the thatched cottage.
In the Qingyang Sect, Lu Ye knew his position. There were no tombs under the Forest of Steles, so it was not possible that the tomb robbers had stolen all of them. There must be a hidden secret in this. But Lu Ye had no way of knowing this hidden secret.
Lu Ye doesn’t want to know either.
Returning to the thatched cottage, Lu Ye sat cross-legged, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "What do these things have to do with me?"
"I was just assigned to guard Cangling Peak. As long as there is nothing going on between Cangling Peak and this forest of steles, it's none of my business as to whether there are tombs below."
Smiling, Lu Ye closed his eyes and meditated, but he did not enter into meditation, but chose to meditate.
It has been some time since he obtained the Soul Transformation Art. During this period, Lu Ye would meditate every day after his retreat, wanting to know whether he had become a soul guide.
But every time, it was the same as the first time. When I entered meditation, I escaped into the darkness of Sumeru with purple eyes, and still could not sense the existence of any soul power.
But Lu Ye still insisted on meditating. Although for such a long time, Lu Ye had not had much hope in whether he could become a soul guide. But Lu Ye discovered that even if he really could not become a soul guide, meditation would
But it improved Lu Ye's perception ability.
This improvement becomes more and more obvious during the battle.
The moon was high, and the only two creatures on Cangling Peak, Lu Ye and Xiao Diao, one entered meditation and the other fell asleep peacefully. After that, the entire Cangling Peak became peaceful again.
What Lu Ye didn't know was that when he was digging the tomb named Zhou Wuyan, behind the Forest of Steles, under the most dangerous cliff, a black shadow emerged from the endless smoke.
come out.
This dark shadow has hair all over its head, a long gray beard that reaches to its chest, and an indescribable coldness beneath its wrinkled face.
A pair of deep black eyes were staring at Lu Ye. After Lu Ye entered the thatched house and no longer lived, he snorted coldly and disappeared into the endless smoke under the cliff again.
This old man did not exude any aura. Even if there was aura leaking out, Lu Ye, who was at the ninth level of body training, could not detect the existence of this old man even if he opened his purple eyes.
The old man disappeared, and the entire Cangling Peak seemed to be sleeping peacefully like the little mink.
…
The sun goes round and round, rising in the east and setting below. Time passes like this day by day.
There are many monsters around Cangling Peak, including many in the early stages of the Pulse Condensation Realm. But now that Xiao Diao is here, the danger is much less. Even the spiritual crystal beasts in the perfect stage of the Pulse Condensation Realm can be instantly killed by Xiao Diao.
, what kind of dangers can Lu Ye encounter near Cangling Peak?
Every day after that, Lu Ye and Xiao Diao would go out early and come back late to practice.
Every day, people and animals leave empty-handed, but in the evening, they all return with a lot of things.
