Chapter 452 Bat

"The ancient master is right. The dragon blood crystal does have a great attraction for us! However, the ancient master can use the dragon blood crystal to heal the Shangguan brothers, which shows that the ancient master has great respect for the dragon blood crystal. He also has a deep understanding of Shi, so in my opinion, the ancient leader will never sell this piece of dragon blood crystal," Mu Chunfeng said.

"From what Master Mu said just now, apart from you, the function of the Dragon Blood Crystal is still a secret to others?" Gu Zheng asked.

"That's right! According to my grandfather, he also came to that conclusion after seeing a description of the Dragon Blood Crystal in an ancient book, coupled with his understanding of the Tianluo Cave and the Blood Tide Forbidden Land. Regarding the Dragon Blood Crystal, not to mention other Tianluo Sect, even the elders of our Red Tianluo Sect don’t know about it,” Mu Chunfeng said.

Gu Zheng smiled: "You elders of the Red Heavenly Snail Sect don't know about the Dragon Blood Crystal yet. It seems that what Leader Mu came to tell me about is also a secret. I want to know, Mu Why would the leader do this? Based on my understanding of the leader Mu, he is not the kind of person who would hide such a major matter from the elders!"

"What Master Gu said makes me a little ashamed!" Mu Chunfeng shook his head and smiled: "Although the elders are the core of the core in the sect, there are some things that are not suitable to be told to them. For example, I want Master Gu to enter If you tell them about Tianluo Cave, they will definitely be reluctant. After all, it is the retreat place of the Patriarch. There is a treasure left by the legendary ancestor! Because of this, they will never let an outsider enter and break the rules left by the ancestor! Normally, I don't want to do this, but we are not the only ones in the Tianluo Sect! As a family, when someone breaks the rules, we still stick to them. This is stubborn!"

"Someone broke the rules? Who is Leader Mu referring to?" Gu Zheng asked.

"Twenty years ago, when the Tianluo Cave was opened, our disciples of the Red Tianluo Sect discovered a corpse in the Tianluo Cave. This corpse was an immortal cultivator during his lifetime. His cultivation was in the early stage of Qi Transformation. He was People from the Holy Blood Sect, before the Tianluo Cave was opened thirty years ago, some people saw him in the Black Tianluo Sect with the Holy Blood Sect and Black Sky. Regarding the relationship between the Luo Sect and this cultivator, wouldn’t the Black Tianluo Sect know about it? Anyway, I don’t believe it! We didn’t tell the other Tianluo Sect or the Black Tianluo Sect about this. After all, it’s easy for them to shirk it, but in my opinion, they are already breaking the rules!”

"There are many suspicious people among the people who came to Blood Tide Island this year. Why did these people come to Blood Tide Island? Nine times out of ten, they must be going to Tianluo Cave! And, just before I come tonight, I will be responsible for surveillance The disciple at the entrance of Tianluo Cave told me that someone suspected to be a cultivator entered Tianluo Cave at an extremely fast speed! This is why I feel that I can no longer let others take the initiative. "

"Having said this, the ancient leader must have understood that I want Miss Miaomiao to enter Tianluo Cave. With her strength, there should be no danger! With the Dragon Blood Crystal, she can stay in Tianluo Cave. The time in the cave may be very long. During this time, the possibility of her discovering secrets is many times greater than that of ordinary people! "

"If Miss Miao Miao really finds some treasure in Tianluo Cave, my requirements are not high. The ancient leader can just give it to me. If I can't find it, Miss Miao Miao will just consider it as a waste of time and risk it." More importantly, the ancient leader wants to deal with the Black Tianluo Sect this time, and the person who entered the Tianluo Cave is likely to be For the people of the Holy Blood Sect, it would be better if Miss Miao Miao could get rid of him in the Tianluo Cave, so as not to become a stumbling block in the future! According to my guess, this person's cultivation level should not be higher than Miss Miao Miao. If he has With complete certainty, coupled with the evil intentions of the Black Tianluo Party in Emei, it was definitely not as simple as detecting this place with spiritual energy last night.”

After Mu Chunfeng finished speaking, he looked at Gu Zheng quietly, waiting for his answer.

"Qi Ling, another adventure is coming. Can this be regarded as my active mission?"

In his inner world, Gu Zheng looked at Qi Ling with a playful smile.

"No! Although this is an adventure, there is no danger, and there may not be huge rewards. It does not comply with the rules set by Lord Tiexian!" Qi Ling rolled his eyes.

"Okay, I knew you were going to say that!" Gu Zheng looked regretful.

"I know you still ask that!" Qi Ling stuck out his tongue.

"Although it cannot be regarded as an active mission, I can agree to Mu Chunfeng's request, and I can also see what kind of secrets are hidden in Tianluo Cave!"

Gu Zheng paused, then asked Qi Ling: "What do you think of this Tianluo Cave?"

"It's hard to say now. After all, you haven't seen Tianluo Cave yet. After you see it, use your spiritual sense to explore it and I will tell you my opinion." Qi Ling said.

Gu Zheng nodded to the weapon spirit, and then said to Mu Chunfeng: "Okay, I can agree to Master Mu's proposal, but instead of Miao Miao entering alone, the two of us will enter together!"

"Ah? Are you two together?" Mu Chunfeng was surprised: "Although with the dragon blood crystal and Miss Meow Meow, it shouldn't be a problem for the ancient leader to enter the Tianluo Cave in advance, but the ancient leader is a leader after all. You can’t take risks like this!”

In fact, including exploring the Blood Tide restricted area, Mu Chunfeng had always thought that the real person to investigate should be Miao Miao. After Gu Zheng knew the danger, he should not put himself in danger! So facing Gu Zheng's decision at this moment, he seemed very shocked.

"Don't worry, Master Mu. Since I have made this decision, it is certainly not a blind impulse."

Gu Zheng patted Mu Chunfeng on the shoulder.

"But,"

"Master Mu, don't worry, I will take care of my husband, don't worry!"

Before Mu Chunfeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Miaomiao.

Seeing the confidence in Miaomiao's eyes and the determination in Gu Zheng's eyes, Mu Chunfeng finally agreed.

Tomorrow morning, the competition for the Tianluo Cave will begin. At noon, many branches of the Tianluo Sect will conduct ancestor worship. After the ancestor worship is completed, the disciples who meet the requirements will enter the Tianluo Cave and start a seven-day exploration.

Now that the matter has been settled, Mu Chunfeng told Gu Zheng some of the conditions in Tianluo Cave.

Early the next morning, Yu Shanhe came to see Gu Zheng and pay off the resources he owed Gu Zheng. Subsequently, a competition for the spot in Tianluo Cave was held among the Red Tianluo Sect.

Perhaps because the Black Tianluo Sect had already purchased a quota for the Yellow Tianluo Sect, the people who were competing with Gu Zheng this time were only at the early stage of the fourth level, so they were really vulnerable.

There was no suspense about the outcome of the battle. Gu Zheng won the place for the Red Tianluo Sect to enter the Tianluo Cave. After the discussion, Mu Chunfeng also gave Gu Zheng the promised resources in accordance with the previous agreement.

At noon, the branches of Tianluo Sect were busy worshiping their ancestors. Gu Zheng and Miaomiao had already arrived outside Tianluo Cave in the dense forest.

Tianluo Cave is usually considered a deserted place, so no one is guarding it. After Gu Zheng and Miao Miao arrived, they didn't find anyone around. However, after Tianluo Cave is opened, there will be people from many branches of Tianluo Sect guarding the place to prevent people from any branch from breaking the rules and entering. This situation will last until Tianluo Cave is closed again.

The Tianluo Cave is like a huge sinkhole with a circular entrance. It is at least 400 meters in diameter and more than 700 meters deep! There are several rope ladders hanging down from the entrance of the cave for people to enter. There is a light mist inside and outside the cave, making it impossible for people to see too deeply.

Gu Zheng used his spiritual thoughts to penetrate deep into the Tianluo Cave. It didn't take long for him to feel the same feeling as when his spiritual thoughts penetrated into the Blood Tide Forbidden Land. It seemed that there was something filament-like that wanted to cling to his spiritual thoughts.

However, unlike what is encountered in the waters, these filaments in the air of Tianluo Cave are not only numerous in number, but their movements are not slow at all! Under such circumstances, the continued exploration of spiritual thoughts will most likely get tangled in filaments.

Just after seeing the power of Tianluo Cave, Gu Zheng took back his spiritual thoughts. After all, the filaments here are more powerful than those in the Blood Tide Forbidden Land. It would not be fun if they were attached to the mind.

"Qi Ling, what do you think?" Gu Zheng thought to himself.

"They are all naturally derived evil spirits, but one is in the water and the other is in the air. But what people didn't expect is that the evil spirits in the air are actually more powerful than those in the water! According to Mu Chunfeng , Tianluo Cave will be safe this afternoon, and the danger and safety in Tianluo Cave can be determined before and after. Such an obvious change can only mean that there is an immortal formation in Tianluo Cave! Most of the time in the year, this immortal formation allows these evil spirits to be released, and only within a specific seven days, the evil spirits will be released. Imprisoned, it seems that this is the only way to explain the origin of safety and danger!"

The weapon spirit paused, and then said: "Let's go, enter the Tianluo Cave first, there are some questions that are not easy to answer yet!"

Since Qi Ling said this, Gu Zheng didn't ask any more questions. After the immortal power activated the dragon blood crystal, his and Miaomiao's bodies were immediately surrounded by a layer of red light.

Instead of going down the rope ladder like ordinary people, Gu Zheng took Miaomiao's hand and jumped straight into the Tianluo Cave.

"Whoosh!"

A black light flashed in Gu Zheng's hand, and Tang Mo, who had not been seen for a while, was taken out by Gu Zheng.

Tang Mo can swallow evil objects to repair his own damage. When he was in the Blood Tide restricted area, Gu Zheng didn't take out Tang Mo because he didn't want Shangguan Feng to see him holding the evil weapon.

Now Gu Zheng has taken out Tang Mo, but Tang Mo has no reaction to the thin threads in the air.

"Stop frowning. Tang Mo didn't react at all. It's not unexpected at all." The voice of the weapon spirit sounded again.

Although Gu Zheng did not take out Tang Mo when he was in the blood tide restricted area, he also communicated with the weapon spirit about this after returning. The answer given by Qi Ling was that Tang Mo probably didn't react to the filaments! When Gu Zheng asked her why, her answer was that the filaments were extremely special evil spirits and were so small that they were invisible to the naked eye. Although they could be considered Tang Mo's food, they were too small for Tang Mo to treat them. There should be no reaction! If Tang Mo was a higher-level immortal weapon with more spirituality, there might still be hope for ancient contention.

"I was excited when I detected the many filaments in the air. Maybe Tang Mo would react!" Gu Zheng took Tang Mo back sarcastically.

Qi Ling smiled and said: "This multitude is only a multitude in your eyes. For Tang Mo, it is definitely too little."

The sound of wind passed through the ears, and the moist smell filled the nostrils. Gu Zheng and Miao Miao descended very quickly. The filaments that wanted to attach themselves to the spiritual induction were all isolated by the red light emitted by the dragon blood crystal.

Although the red light in the dragon blood crystal can be replenished by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, it is not inexhaustible. Gu Zheng and Miaomiao must use it sparingly in the Tianluo Cave.

After falling to the bottom of Tianluo Cave, even Gu Zheng and Miao Miao's vision was greatly affected due to the ancient smoke. The two of them identified the direction according to the map provided by Mu Chunfeng, and then walked towards this suitable hiding place.

It is unrealistic to fully rely on the red light of the Dragon Blood Crystal to explore the Tianluo Cave. Gu Zheng and Miaomiao can only find a place to hide for a while, and then wait for the time when the Tianluo Cave is actually opened. Then explore Tianluo Cave.

The landform of Tianluo Cave is like a cave. After Gu Zheng and Miaomiao walked for about ten minutes, they found the cave marked on Mu Chunfeng's map, which was four meters high from the ground.

After entering the cave, Gu Zheng used his means to set up restrictions. The small cave became a completely enclosed space, isolating all the filaments in the air from the outside.

The cave is not big, and Miao Miao, who was curled up next to Gu Zheng, looked up at Gu Zheng: "Sir, do you think this trip will be fruitful?"

"Meow meow."

"Sister, what's wrong?"

The weapon spirit's voice was heard, which made Miao Miao, who was originally next to Gu Zheng, sit up straight.

"Nothing, I'm calling you!"

Qi Ling said lightly, causing the inward-looking Gu Zheng to roll his eyes at her, and she also stuck out her tongue at Gu Zheng.

"Whether there will be any harvest this time depends on whether the existence of the Immortal Formation can be found after the Tianluo Cave is truly opened. Whether it is the Immortal Formation or the legendary treasure, the Tianluo Sect branch has not discovered its existence. There is probably a certain connection between the two things! Maybe the Immortal Formation is in the treasure. If the Immortal Formation can be found, it will naturally mean that the treasure has been found." The voice of the weapon spirit was still heard.

"Sister, how can we find the Immortal Formation?" Miao Miao asked.

"If I guess correctly, after the Tianluo Cave is truly opened, the filaments in the air will be recalled by the Immortal Formation. By following these filaments, you will be able to find the existence of the Immortal Formation. Perhaps, back then, the Red Tianluo Sect The place where the person found the body of the Immortal Cultivator of the Holy Blood Sect is not too far away from the Immortal Formation. After all, this person is also an Immortal Cultivator. It is very likely that he will also think of the method I thought of. "Item Spirit. said.

"elder sister,"

Miao Miao just said two words and immediately fell silent.

Not only did she act strange, but Gu Zheng's brows also wrinkled slightly.

Because just now, there was a slight noise heard by the two of them. It was the sound of someone flying towards here from a very far away place.

After a moment, the running man disappeared, and Gu Zheng's brows furrowed even more.

"According to what Head Mu said, a person who was suspected to be an immortal cultivator had already entered the Tianluo Cave before. Now before the Tianluo Cave was opened, another person entered. Although this person did not see it with his own eyes, he passed through it. Flying over, he must be an immortal cultivator!" Miaomiao said.

"Headmaster Mu originally said that the Blood Tide Island during this ancestor worship period would be more lively than at this time in previous years, but two immortal cultivators entered the Tianluo Cave one after another. This is really lively beyond imagination! These things What kind of methods do people have, and how do they avoid evil spirits?" Gu Zheng murmured.

"Anyway, just be careful!"

The weapon spirit smiled faintly, as if the soldiers were coming to cover up the water and the earth.

at the same time.

Deeper in the Tianluo Cave, an old man in black robes was sitting cross-legged on the ground, making hand gestures, and on his face, there were light patterns similar to what Shangguan Xusheng did.

"Hmm."

A sneer appeared at the corner of the black-robed old man's mouth. When he stood up, the light patterns on his face became even brighter.

"In this short time alone, two groups of people came in. It seems that the opening of Tianluo Cave this time is really lively!"

The old man in black robe muttered to himself for a moment, and then a hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes: "Do you think Tianluo Cave is a place where anyone can come? Since you are already here, I will give you a little greeting gift first. !”

The old man in black robe shot several spells in succession into the void, and the brightness of the light pattern on his face reached its maximum, as if it were a luminous body in the darkness.

"Zhizhizhi..."

Suddenly, in the darkness in the distance, there was a cry of bats.

One.

Two.

Ten.

Hundreds.

Thousands.

Within a huge radius, bats that were originally hanging upside down on the cave wall flew down one after another. During the flight, the black bodies of these bats were gradually replaced by blood red. Even the original normal size expanded by more than five times. The pairs of green eyes shining in the dark were like It’s a will-o’-the-wisp.

The mutated bats were squeaking strangely, and they seemed to be going crazy in the dark, looking for traces of the intruder.

"Damn it!"

An old voice sounded, and the man in black who was walking in the darkness stopped. He looked at the direction in which the bats were flying, and cursed.

Although his voice is old, the man in black has an extremely young appearance. He is Lu Qi, the great elder of the Holy Blood Sect.

The person who met Rong Qiu on the seaside cliff of Blood Tide Island before was Lu Qi. The person who used his spiritual mind to explore Gu Zheng's residence the night before yesterday was also Lu Qi.

The bat swarm was already very close, and the cold light coming from the fine fangs in the darkness was even more chilling.

"Hehe."

Lu Qi laughed contemptuously and casually offered a tortoise-shell-shaped immortal weapon.

The immortal weapon grew in the wind and instantly became as big as a bed. After putting Lu Qi in it, it shrank to the size of a fist in an instant.

There was no trace of Lu Qi on the ground, only a fist-sized tortoise shell. Most of the bats in the bat group seemed to have lost their target. They flew over the tortoise shell with strange cries.

But there were a few bats that seemed to be different. They landed near the tortoise shell and bit it with their sharp teeth, making a friction sound that made people's backs numb. Some bats even exploded at the tortoise shell! Although this explosion did not have much impact, the blood stains after their explosion covered the tortoise shell completely, and like corrosion, a lot of green smoke appeared on the tortoise shell.

After a while.

The bats that had not given up on the tortoise shell also left, and Lu Qi's sneer came from the tortoise shell.

"Do you think you can stump me like this? But these damn bats, after the mutation, really can't be underestimated!"

Ordinary bats rely on ultrasound to find targets in the dark. Although the restrictions that Gu Zheng has set outside the cave can block the invasion of some invisible means, they can't block the sight! And the eyes of the bats in the air with green eyes are not just for show.

Gu Zheng quickly cast a few spells, and a new restriction was set up. This kind of restriction contains some energy from heaven and earth, which can not only block the sight of prying eyes, but also block the exploration of divine thoughts. When Gu Zheng lived in the Hongtianluo Sect, this kind of restriction was set in the courtyard.

However, the mutated bats cannot be explained by common sense. In their green eyes, the cave entrance is still empty!

"No way!"

As the bats approached, Gu Zheng made an incredible sound.

However, what Gu Zheng found incredible was not that the bats ignored his restrictions, but that these bats actually contained immortal essence in their bodies!
