Chapter 286: Ancient Cultivator's Cave Mansion

After crossing the desert, Zhou Shu came to a stretch of mountains.

Here is where Hong Yuan found the cave.

Cultivators like to build caves in mountains. As we all know, Cultivators cultivate immortals, pay attention to sensing the world, return to the original state of unity with heaven and earth, and return to nature. The best place for the opening and closing of heaven and earth, practitioners practice here in order to soar to heaven and become immortals.

The mountains in front of me are not high, and because of the proximity to the desert, there is no vegetation, and the aura is very sparse everywhere. It is hard to imagine that there will be cultivators who will build a cave here as a place for cultivation.

But it was not like this before. It is said that the Liangyue Desert used to be called the Liangyue Grassland. There are mountains and waters, lush vegetation, full of aura, and there is a vibrant scene everywhere. But after a Zongmen war, the mountains were flattened, The river was drained, and even the original fourth-order spiritual veins were removed by the monks, and this place turned into a desert.

In the vicissitudes of life, Xuanhuang Continent is changing every day, it is really hard to say.

Sweeping into the mountain, Zhou Shu walked to a cliff tens of feet high, plummeted down, and used the method in Hong Yuan's memory to open the formation mechanism. A gap suddenly appeared in the cliff, dark and deep. I don't know how much.

Just after stepping into the hole, the gap suddenly closed again.

Fluorite is inlaid everywhere in the cave, emitting a faint light, and a stone step descends step by step, leading to the depth.

After walking about a hundred feet, a closed ancient jade gate was opened, and suddenly a hall with a radius of several tens of feet appeared in front of him.

This place is very messy, there are broken magic weapons, jade pieces, pill bottles everywhere...

Zhou Shu was not surprised, he had already prepared for this scene.

That day when Hong Yuan said that there were countless treasures in the cave, he was talking nonsense just to beg for his life. The owner of this cave is only at the Pulse Condensation Stage, so can he leave behind countless treasures? Impossible, and after thousands or even tens of thousands of years, even if there are treasures, they are almost destroyed by the years. Most of the pills and jade slips are like this, and the ancient light-splitting mirror is the only magic weapon that survives.

But since Zhou Shu knew this, and came here, he naturally had other intentions.

Cultivators would not put all the good things on the bright side of the cave. Most of the good things were hidden in hidden places, and most of them were with the remains of the Cultivator. Hong Yuan did not find the remains of this ancient Cultivator. Arriving, it doesn't mean that Zhou Shu can't find it either.

"Go away, come out."

Opening the spirit beast bag, Xiao Gun, who hadn't been out for a long time, slowly crawled out.

It first threw a few hockey pucks at Zhou Shu, vented a little dissatisfaction, and then rolled up in the cave like a small ball.

"It's up to you, don't let me down."

Zhou Shu locked his consciousness on Xiao Gun, and then entered the small room next to the hall.

In the small room, there are three old mottled stone tablets, on which are engraved ancient characters with twists and turns. According to Hong Yuan's memory, there are three ancient methods recorded on the ancient tablets, namely Muyin, Mudun, and Musi. In the world of cultivating immortals, there are almost no transmissions, and they are considered rare inheritances.

Zhou Shu looked it over carefully, and after confirming that there was no difference from what he remembered, he felt relieved.

This kind of ancient formula does not require a lot of spiritual power, and more is borrowed from the spirit of heaven and earth. It is different from the current formula, and it is more troublesome. Go learn now.

But this kind of ancient inheritance is definitely very useful, and it is also very good to sell it. Many cultivators are eager for ancient methods, and they can offer unimaginable prices.

As for why Zhou Shu could understand the ancient characters, this is very simple, because Hong Yuan started to learn these very early, and he helped Zhou Shu learn them.

Boom, boom.

Zhou Shu walked out quickly, and Xiao Gun was lying on the ground, spitting ice hockey desperately against a wall.

"It's here."

Zhou Shu pondered slightly. He scanned the walls around the cave for a long time before, but found nothing at all, but it didn't take long for Xiao Gun to find something strange.

The spiritual consciousness of a cultivator is difficult to exert in many places, and it is not as good as the instinct of spirit beasts and spirit insects.

Zhou Shu stabbed along the wall, only to hear a bang, and the heavy golden sword bounced back.

"So hard?"

The third-order flying sword only drew a gray-white mark, behind the half-foot-deep stone wall, there was something mysterious about it.

Zhou Shu was slightly taken aback. Looking carefully, behind the wall was not an ordinary rock, but an unusually hard black bone stone.

Black bone stone is not only hard, but also isolated from aura and consciousness. It is a commonly used material for building strong cities and is of great value.

"It must be a deliberate arrangement, it can't be wrong."

The astonishment suddenly turned into surprise. There is a black bone stone wall standing here. There must be a mystery behind it. There should be other passages, but Zhou Shu has no time to find it. It shattered and gradually revealed a path.

This layer of black bone stone wall was three feet thick, and when Zhou Shu felt a little tired, he saw a ray of light shining from the opposite side.

Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly, a green rope about half a foot thick jumped out of the opened gap and rolled towards Zhou Shu.

Looking carefully, the rope is covered with large and small suction cups, greasy with some mucus, very disgusting, like the tentacles of an octopus on the seabed, very weird.

Zhou Shu didn't think too much, and cut it down with his sword!

With a soft sound, the tentacle was so tough that it bent continuously, circled the sword several times, and retracted with a whoosh.

"It's weird, what is this?"

Zhou Shu quickly put away the small roll, and poked out his consciousness to look inside. Through the opened hole, the situation inside is clearly revealed.

The place is not big, with a radius of less than ten feet. In the center sits a white skeleton, probably the owner of the cave. He is holding a Naxu ring in his hand. On both sides of him, there are two plants about one person tall. A green monster with thorns all over its body.

Seeing these two plant-like things, Zhou Shu was stunned for a while, "Dragon claw grass?"

Dragon's Claw Grass, a very special kind of monster, can also be said to be a kind of plant.

It is called a plant because its main body cannot move, and its main root is deeply rooted in the soil, and it grows by the aura in the earth. It is called a monster, because it has hundreds of movable rhizomes, which prey on extra food for it. Moreover, it has demon pills, realm cultivation, and can even transform into a human being.

The two dragon's claw grasses here were presumably planted here by the owner of the cave to protect his own remains.

The dragon's claw grass is quite difficult to entangle. Hundreds of aggressive roots are buried in the ground. They don't know when they will come out. As long as they are caught by them, it is as if they are pinched by the dragon's claws. Being sucked dry, places with dragon's claw grass are often restricted areas, and monsters will avoid them and run away when they see them. But at this time, Zhou Shu's eyes lighted up slightly, showing a bit of greed.

Because he knew that the Dragon's Claw Grass was extremely rare, and it could be considered an ancient alien monster. Most importantly, it had a trace of Yinglong's blood, and was rich in the power of wood.

It seems that Xiaogun is expected to advance to the rank, Dragon Claw Grass, he is determined to win.
