Seeing this scene, Yunze couldn't help but recall the scene in Hanshan Village, and couldn't help clenching his fists.
Although the number of corpses in front of us was far less than before, in addition to human corpses, there were also many spiritual beast corpses piled up on the spot.
But it is strange to say that there are so many corpses piled up in one place, but there is no smell of blood around them, and there is not even a trace of a fight.
It's as if the corpses were thrown here artificially, but even if the corpses were thrown, it wouldn't be so that all the corpses would have their faces downward, right?
"Uncle, please close your sense of smell first to prevent toxins from invading."
"good!"
Yunze responded, and saw that Dan Chenyu next to him had frowned. He stepped forward and squatted in front of a human corpse to analyze it.
"There are no external injuries on the body. The spiritual energy in the body is exhausted. All three souls and seven souls are scattered. The cause of death is unknown."
Dan Chenyu took out a silver rod from the Sumeru Ring, raised the man's head, and frowned more and more: "This man... is not a person on the top of the heavenly list!"
Yunze also walked up and squatted next to Dan Chenyu: "Isn't he someone on the Heavenly List? Are you sure?"
"certainly."
Dan Chenyu nodded: "The day before entering the secret realm, I went through the information of everyone on the heavenly list. I can confirm this."
After saying that, she walked over to another human corpse and used a silver rod to lift it to the front, followed by the second, third...
"Uncle Junior, help turn everyone over! Be careful!"
"good!"
According to the sword energy induction, Wei Lanshu was not far from here. He also wanted to know if she was among the corpses...
Yunze did not dare to use his hands directly, so he could only use a mandrill to pick up the corpses one by one to the front.
There were a total of thirty-six human corpses and thirty-six spirit beast corpses.
The good news is that there is no Wei Lanshu among these human corpses, and the bad news...
Dan Chenyu's face turned pale and he turned to look at Yunze: "Uncle Junior, now we have two pieces of bad news."
"you say."
Yunze could only judge that there was bad news at the moment, but he could tell something was wrong just by looking at Dan Chenyu's expression, so he had no choice but to be mentally prepared.
But when Tan Chenyu opened his mouth to tell the second piece of bad news, he still couldn't help but feel trembling in his heart!
"The first bad news.
The death condition of all these people was the same as that of the first corpse, without any external injuries. Even after Dan Chenyu's investigation, he was able to rule out the cause of death due to toxins, and the death condition of those spirit beasts was much more normal.
"
"Because of the core?"
Just now when Dan Chenyu was inspecting the human corpses, Yunze was not idle either. He also inspected the spiritual beasts.
The cores of all spirit beasts have been hollowed out!
The core is the condensed body of a spiritual beast's lifelong cultivation. It is similar to a human's spiritual root, but it also has some functions of the sea of qi.
Take the spirit whale as an example. If the spiritual fluid in its fifth stomach is emptied by Yunze, it can be cultivated back in the future, but if someone takes out its core, it will definitely die!
And the spirit beast heart core in the Heaven-Building Secret Realm has another use...condensing source energy!
As long as you gather nine spirit beasts at the ninth level of Qi Refining, or find the core of a spirit beast at the Foundation Establishment Stage, you can refine it into a ray of source energy.
After all, not everyone is so lucky to be able to find one of the nine spiritual lakes and wait until the source of Qi within it appears.
This is the normal way to collect Yuan Qi.
And among this group of spiritual beasts, the lowest ones are all at the ninth level of Qi Refining!
"Yes! Heart Core!"
Dan Chenyu nodded and said: "Thirty-six spirit beasts in the ninth level of Qi Refining are enough to condense four rays of source energy! Even the ninth level of Qi Sea can build a foundation!
If there is really a murderous person who condenses four rays of source energy and achieves foundation building, then... I am afraid that I will not be able to protect myself during this trip to the secret realm!"
A certain murderous person... just say Xiu Yun.
Yunze smiled bitterly and then asked: "Then what is the second bad news?"
He had actually guessed the first bad news, but he had no idea what the second bad news from Dan Chenyu was.
"I don't know any of the thirty-six people who died."
Dan Chenyu frowned and spoke in a very serious tone: "They don't have any identity marks on them, not to mention spiritual weapons or elixirs, not even half a spiritual stone!
In this case, there is only one possibility, and that is that they have been looted after death!
After all, even if you are sent out by a certain family to perform a mission, you won't be able to do so without even bringing some supplies."
"Perhaps he was really killed?" Yunze asked with a frown.
If Xiu Yun reaches the foundation building realm, it seems not impossible to hunt down thirty-six foundation building players at once.
"impossible……"
Dan Chenyu smiled bitterly: "I have learned some medical skills. Although I have not yet entered the Taoist realm, I can still judge the time of death through some details of the corpse.
These people died at the same time as those spirit beasts, less than a quarter of an hour, which means they were all still alive before we saw them!"
"It coincides with the death of the spirit beast!?"
Yunze was stunned for a moment, but before he could recover, Dan Chenyu dropped another news.
"And they...are all in the foundation building realm! Tunnel foundation building in the sixth realm of Qi Sea or above!"
"What!"
Yunze exclaimed in surprise.
There is no way Xiu Yun did this!
It's true that Xiu Yun is in the ninth level of Qi Sea. It would make sense if he killed the spirit beast first, used the heart core of the spirit beast to break through the foundation, and then killed the humans in front of him.
But now the death time of spiritual beasts is the same as that of human beings, which means that Xiu Yun does not have time to extract the source energy in the core.
With his cultivation at the ninth level of Qi Refining, it was impossible to kill these spiritual beasts and thirty-six strong men at the Foundation Establishment level in a short period of time!
Even the senior sister back then couldn’t do it!
“It’s not a good place to stay for a long time!”
This place is too weird, Dan Chenyu said that he wanted to pull Yunze away from here.
But Yunze raised his hand to avoid her hand, frowning and said: "Xiaoyu, you go first, I still need to find someone."
"Little uncle!"
Dan Chenyu also frowned. She wanted to protect Yunze, but that didn't mean she had to risk her own life to protect him!
The two of them had only met twice, and they were not close to each other.
"I can sense that she is nearby. You leave here first. We will contact you when the time comes."
Yunze looked in front of the corpses.
He didn't know how much error there would be in the sword energy induction, but since Xiao Shu was nearby, as long as there was some movement, she would probably notice it!
Without waiting for Dan Chenyu to answer, he flew into the sky with Xing Wudao, about ten meters in the air, and then casually condensed a sword of earth and stone!
"Earth and Stone Jue?"
Dan Chenyu is Yunxiao's disciple, and he has naturally learned the swordsmanship of Guiwu Sword Sect. He can tell what Yunze wants to do at a glance!
This madman! Who is he looking for? Why would he want to start such a big battle?
Dan Chenyu bit his lip, thought for a few breaths, and then rose into the air. However, he did not escape from this place, but came to Yunze's side!
No matter what, he is still his comrade. If we leave our comrades alone in this situation, it is not the behavior of our Jingshi Association!
"How did you..."
Yunze couldn't help being stunned when he saw this, but he was interrupted by Dan Chenyu just after he uttered three words.
"After this sword attack, if you still can't find the person you are looking for, I will knock you out and abduct you!"
"……good!"
Yunze responded with a wry smile.
Earth and Stone Jue.
One of the Five Elements Sword Techniques of the Guiwu Sword Sect, it is equipped with three sword techniques. One is to use spiritual energy to condense earth and stone into a sword, which is called the Earth Sword Technique. The second set of sword techniques is called Falling Stone.
If the two sets of sword techniques are integrated, it will be the third set of sword techniques!
The name is called and the earth is shaken!
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword of earth and stone plunged straight into the ground and submerged into the surface in an instant.
boom!
There was a buzzing sound!
The ground within a radius of a hundred meters shook instantly!
This is just an earth sword.
Yunze can condense up to six earth swords, and can use the Falling Stone Sword Technique to turn these six earth swords into fifty-four flying stones!
If fire and earth can be combined, these fifty-four flying rocks will turn into meteorites, which is no less powerful than a natural disaster!
Now I'm just looking for someone, so naturally I don't need this trick.
The ground was shaking endlessly, and Yunze and Dan Chenyu kept scanning the surface, trying to see if they could find any traces of living people!
But no trace of this living person was found, but they found another surprise!
The 'bodies' that they had turned over and inspected just now...all stood up!
Everyone seemed to have been woken up, looking up at the two people in the sky.
"Little...little uncle...did you see what that was?"
Dan Chenyu's voice was trembling, and while he raised his hand to point to the ground, he could not hide the fear in his heart, and his body was already trembling slightly.
"Gudu~"
Yunze swallowed, and naturally saw the situation in front of him clearly, and replied tremblingly: "I saw it."
