After entering the cave, Lin Xuan landed. Although his spiritual consciousness checked that there was no danger, there is nothing wrong with being careful.
It's better to walk.
It was very dark in the cave. Lin Xuan raised his hand, and a white ball of light the size of an egg appeared in his palm. As far as the light could reach, and the eyesight of a cultivator was far beyond ordinary people, Lin Xuan could see everything around him clearly.
Clearly.
Lin Xuan walked very slowly, and from time to time he would rub the stone wall with his hands. When he encountered a stone, he would kick it away, not letting go of any possible clues.
It took Lin Xuan a whole day to reach the end of the distance of seven to eight hundred feet, but he still found nothing.
There is neither danger nor treasure.
There was no way ahead, and he was now in a stone room at the end of the cave.
According to Li Yaotian, the frozen demon was found here.
This stone chamber is oval in shape, about tens of feet square, and is extremely wide in area. Unfortunately, it is empty.
Lin Xuan has searched carefully here several times, and it can even be said that he has dug three feet into the ground. Whether it is the surrounding mountain walls or the floor below, Lin Xuan used his magic weapon and dug hard, but there is still nothing.
No gain at all.
At this time, Lin Xuan crossed his chest with one hand, with a hint of contemplation on his face.
It took a lot of effort to get here, and of course he would not leave so easily.
In fact, it was normal not to find it. Li Yaotian had already searched here several times. If he found traces of the treasure easily, Lin Xuan would have to wonder if someone had set a trap for him.
Lin Xuan didn't believe that there would really be nothing here. Although the number of ancient monk ruins was small, there were always lucky people who could break in from time to time.
Ancient treasures, elixirs, and even some very lucky people received the mantle and inheritance of the ancient monks. In a very short period of time, their cultivation levels skyrocketed, making everyone envious.
As a result, more and more monks traveled across the barren mountains and deserts to find the caves of the ancient monks.
However, it is really difficult to explain things like chance clearly.
The so-called willows planted unintentionally will make shade. Searching with intention will rarely yield anything.
Those who are persistent delay their own practice in vain. Those who had the opportunity to step into the next realm end up in despair because of wasting their time, and finally turn into withered bones in the tomb.
I have to say this is a kind of irony.
It can also be regarded as a warning to those who cultivate immortality.
The path to immortality is difficult. If you want to go further, you mainly need to rely on your own diligence and opportunism. If you don't do it well, you will be misled by your cleverness.
But no matter what, those who enter the ruins of ancient monks by chance will gain a lot. Even those with the worst luck can still obtain a large number of crystal stones.
Anyway, Lin Xuan had never heard of anyone returning empty-handed, and he didn't think he would be so unlucky.
Since there will be frozen demons here, it further proves that the owner here is very powerful. Lin Xuan once read it in a certain ancient book. In ancient times, there were ancient monks who directly sacrificed demons and made them into puppet pets.
That is better than zombies, but unfortunately the refining method has been lost, and there are no demons as raw materials.
Judging from the demon's magical power and cultivation, the person who can refine a puppet of this level is most likely an old monster at the Yuan Ying stage.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan's heart became hotter and hotter, and he would not leave easily.
If you can’t find it, don’t be in a hurry. Anyway, you have plenty of time to explore slowly.
Lin Xuan has a tenacious temperament and never looks back when he is sure of one thing.
Sit cross-legged and rest for a while until your magic power is restored.
Early the next morning, Lin Xuan started knocking inside the cave again, hoping to trigger some kind of restriction. According to Lin Xuan's idea, this place was probably set up with a very powerful deception.
One day passed and nothing was gained.
Two days have passed. Still empty-handed.
…
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xuan had stayed here for seventeen days without even realizing it.
Just over half a month, for a monk, it is just a blink of an eye. Sometimes, Lin Xuan practices the exercises and sits cross-legged in meditation for far longer than this time.
However, facing the cold stone wall every day, trying to figure out the clues from it, it is completely in vain. Seventeen days is not a short period of time.
At least Li Yaotian's longest search here was only half a day.
Now even Lin Xuan is a little doubtful whether he has made a mistake. After all, he has tried every method these days. If there is really some kind of deception, he has no reason and can't even see the slightest clue.
Could it be that this was not the cave of the ancient monks at all, and that the demon was frozen here for a different reason? Lin Xuan thought to himself, after all, it happened millions of years ago, and who can tell clearly now.
It's a pity that the demon has been destroyed by himself, otherwise he might be able to get some clues by using the soul-searching technique on it, Lin Xuan thought with some annoyance.
Although strictly speaking, his trip was actually worthwhile. Obtaining the storage bag of the remains and killing the third-order moon demon spider were all considerable gains. However, thinking about the original purpose of this trip, Lin
Xuan was still a little unwilling.
"That's it, stay for another three days. After three days, if you still don't find anything, just turn around and leave." Lin Xuan secretly thought to himself that he didn't intend to waste time here.
Another day passed in peace.
That night, Lin Xuan was sitting cross-legged and meditating. With his current level of cultivation, unless he was really exhausted, simply meditating for a while would restore his physical strength.
Suddenly, Lin Xuan stopped the movement of spiritual power in his body as if he sensed something, and slowly opened his eyes.
The cold moonlight falls from the sky. Today is a full moon night. Of course, Lin Xuan cannot see the moon deep in the cave, but with his spiritual sense, he can sense the situation outside clearly.
.
Something strange happened, the moonlight actually shone in from outside the cave.
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. It was a small restriction in this stone room that was at work.
When he first came here, Lin Xuan didn't notice this restriction. He remembered that he only sensed it on the fifth day. At that time, Lin Xuan was excited for a while, but after careful study, he found that this restriction was simply rubbish.
, of no use.
Now what is it doing to bring in the moonlight? It can't be used for lighting. Lin Xuan thought with some doubts, but his eyes didn't blink and he looked over.
The moonlight passed through the forbidden area and finally shone on an inconspicuous corner of the stone room.
Then without warning, vigorous spiritual power surged out, and the fragrance hit his nostrils, but Lin Xuan quickly held his breath, it was poisonous!
Fortunately, he didn't feel anything wrong. Lin Xuan looked forward intently: "This is..."
