Chapter 254: The Land of Mysterious Evil
Seeing that the golden light in the distance quickly caught up with the bloody light, the golden light suddenly dispersed and turned into a large golden net, wrapping up the bloody light.
Xiao Lin reached out to take the golden light that flew back, and threw it into the storage bag without looking at it.
A smile appeared on Xiao Lin's face, but just after he had done all this, the smile on Xiao Lin's face suddenly froze, and then his expression changed. He swayed slightly and came to Tao Ling's side.
"Come on, someone is coming."
Then with a pull on Tao Ling's arm, the two of them turned into a huge spiritual light and flew into the valley.
Although Tao Ling knew clearly that Xiao Lin pulled her out because of desperation, a blush could not help appearing on her pretty face, and she glanced at Xiao Lin shyly from the corner of her eye.
The two of them soon came to the depths of the valley, where the three cold-blooded worms were originally located. Seeing the two of them arriving, Xiao Yishao came forward with excitement on his face.
"Have you got all the treasures?" Tao Ling asked. The treasures she was talking about were naturally the Jiangshengcao and half of the pond's stone marrow.
"The agaricus has been put away, as well as the stone marrow, and there are three large bottles of it, just one for each of us." Xiao Yishao's face was red, obviously he was very excited about this harvest.
However, Xiao Lin and Tao Ling ignored Xiao Yishao and looked at each other at the same time.
"They're coming in." Xiao Lin said lightly, his face darkening.
"The Four-Way Demon Trap Array has also been broken." Tao Ling's face was a little ugly, and at the same time there was a trace of regret in her eyes. She spent a lot of money to refine the Four-Way Trap Demon Array, but she didn't expect it. It was just ruined.
The reason why Xiao Lin confirmed that someone had come in was that he sensed that thousands of the tens of thousands of soul-devouring fire poisons he had placed in the cracks in the valley were killed by others. This made him shocked and angry, and he could only let the remaining The soul-eating fire Gu retreated into this paradise.
Xiao Lin's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Since the other party was able to kill thousands of his soul-devouring fire Gu, it was obvious that he had also cultivated some kind of weird cold flame like himself.
When Xiao Lin thought about it, the person who came in was definitely not the pale-faced demonic monk. He had already been defeated by his own hands and fled.
He should be very clear that even if he comes here, he will not be his opponent. In comparison, no matter how good the treasure is, it is not as important as his own life.
As for Shen Jiuxiao and others, it was very possible. The three of them were fighting with the nine men in black controlled by the pale-faced demonic monk through the spirit-controlling demonic skill. It was not easy to determine the winner in a short time.
But it had been more than ten days since he, Tao Ling, and Xiao Yishao entered the crack in the valley. Logically speaking, if Shen Jiuxiao and the others had come in, they should have come in long ago.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin was also full of confusion. Unfortunately, he could only sense some vague scenes through the restrictions on the Soul-Eating Fire Gu. He only knew that someone had come in, but he could not see clearly who it was.
"What should we do? Should we just go around and leave at the right time?" Tao Ling's face was a little ugly. Although she didn't know who came in, but looking at Xiao Lin's expression, she also knew that the person who came in was probably not a simple person. .
Otherwise, Junior Brother Xiao himself would not be so dignified.
"Senior Sister Tao, Junior Brother Xiao, deep in the lair of the three Hanxueli, there is another cave. It's dark, and I don't know what's in it. Do we want to go in and have a look?" Xiao Yishao stood aside. He suddenly spoke.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xiao Lin and Tao Ling turned to look at Xiao Yishao.
"I also discovered it when I was picking the purple grass. Oh, by the way, give this purple grass to Senior Sister Tao first. As for the stone marrow, there are three bottles in total, one for each of us."
Xiao Yishao took out an exquisite jade box from the storage bag and handed it to Tao Ling.
At the same time, he took out three large jade bottles over two feet high and placed them on the ground.
"Let us divide this stone marrow equally among the three of us." Tao Ling looked at Xiao Lin and said with a smile.
"Yes." Xiao Lin naturally knew that Tao Ling was more asking about himself than making arrangements. However, although the stone marrow was valuable, it was not an extraordinary treasure. Xiao Lin, who had the spirit wood space, naturally did not care about passing through. Stone marrow to improve the success rate of alchemy.
Xiao Lin took a bottle and put it in his storage bag.
"Leave this Jiangshengcao to Junior Brother for preservation. After returning, Junior Brother Xiao will hand in the task, so that you can get points and spiritual weapon rewards." After Tao Ling took a bottle of stone marrow, he put the delicate jade in his hand The box was handed to Xiao Lin.
"Well, if that's the case, I'll be disrespectful to you, junior brother." Xiao Lin smiled slightly and without being polite, he just passed the jade bottle and put it away.
For tasks issued by Dancao Mountain, only those who submit the tasks can obtain rewards. Since it was agreed that the sect's contribution will be his own, Xiao Lin naturally has to be the one who submits the tasks.
Soon Xiao Lin and the others felt a violent vibration in the distance, and it was obvious that someone was fighting.
And in Xiao Lin's opinion, the person who came in must have met the two Hanxue Li who escaped from trouble. I am afraid that the two Han Xue Li were furious at this moment.
Trapped by Tao Ling's four-sided monster formation, as soon as he escaped from the trap, he encountered several human monks, who naturally rushed towards them without saying a word.
Xiao Lin stared into the distance, seeing flashes of light from time to time, but his face showed a thoughtful expression.
"Senior Sister Tao, if we go out now, we will definitely encounter people coming in, as well as the two Hanxueli. After the two Hanxueli escaped from the trap, they didn't see us, so they would get angry at the few people who came in."
"If we go out now and are seen by the cold-blooded li, they will definitely abandon the people who came in and attack us instead."
"Then what do you say, Junior Brother?" Tao Ling also knew that the true-level monsters were very vengeful. After being trapped by the four-sided monster trapping formation he had sent out for a long time, the leader of the cold-blooded li and his subordinates probably remembered him a long time ago.
Once they see the three of them, they will probably not stop until they eat them alive.
"Why don't we go into the cave and take a look? Maybe there are other treasures." After thinking for a while, Xiao Lin looked at Tao Ling and the others and said.
"Junior Brother Xiao is right. The cave is dark and we don't know how deep it is. Maybe there are good things in it." Xiao Yishao has a carefree personality and is quite like a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger. When he heard Xiao Lin's proposal, he immediately agreed.
"Okay, let's explore it." After thinking about it, Tao Ling also felt that this was the only way to avoid running into the leader of the cold-blooded li.
Just a red-scaled cold-blooded li almost killed her, leaving her with lingering fears. Therefore, she didn't want to meet the leader of the cold-blooded li again.
Seeing that the two agreed to his proposal, Xiao Lin nodded and took the lead in controlling the Bingluan Sword, turning into a dark green spiritual light and flying towards the depths of the cold-blooded li's cave.
At the deepest part of the three roots, near the root of the mountain where the cold-blooded li was lying, there was indeed a dark hole about ten feet in size. The hole was so dark that it was impossible to judge the depth.
Xiao Lin came to the hole and flew straight in. After a little thought, he shook his hand and shot out a few red lights, but he put several soul-eating fire poisons in.
Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao also followed Xiao Lin and flew into the cave.
After entering the cave, Xiao Lin was surprised to find that the cave became wider and wider. After flying for more than ten miles, the area around Xiao Lin was already dozens of feet wide, and the entire cave was emitting a faint dark red halo.
Xiao Lin's spiritual consciousness swept across the surrounding cave walls, and a look of realization appeared on his face. The walls around the cave were actually red copper ore, no wonder it was emitting a faint red halo.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile in his heart. When he was mining in the Qingshui Lake Mine, if he could dig a small piece of such red copper ore, it would be enough for him to become an outer disciple of Bailian Hall directly.
Red copper ore, like black iron, is an extremely precious metal in the secular world. It can be used to refine magic weapons. For cultivators, it is not rare. Whether it is black iron or red copper, it is just an auxiliary material for refining primary and intermediate magic tools, and it is not precious.
What surprised Xiao Lin was the temperature in the cave. As he went deeper, Xiao Lin felt a gloomy aura emanating from the depths of the cave. The temperature was getting lower and lower. Soon, the breath exhaled by Xiao Lin and the other two turned into white gas.
"It's so cold." Not far behind Xiao Lin, Xiao Sanshao couldn't help but shudder and said.
"There's something strange in here, and this gloomy aura emanating from the depths of the cave is very similar to the legendary evil aura. Could it be that there is a mysterious evil land in this cave?" Tao Lingxiu frowned and said softly.
Xiao Lin also had a hesitant look on his face. He had heard of the mysterious evil land. It was a dangerous place naturally formed between heaven and earth. Of course, it could also be artificially formed. This kind of mysterious evil land would emit gloomy aura all year round, which was as cold as ice. Once a mortal was contaminated by the evil aura, his whole body would be stiff and frozen to death.
For cultivators, it was also extremely threatening. This mysterious evil aura was also divided into three, six, and nine levels. The lowest level of mysterious evil aura could also stop ordinary Qi training cultivators in their tracks. If they encountered those powerful mysterious evil auras.
Even a foundation-building cultivator like Xiao Lin would have to retreat.
"Let's go, let's go in and take a look." Although the mysterious evil spirit here is cold, it is still tolerable for Xiao Lin and the other three foundation-building cultivators. Besides, they have already come here, so if they retreat.
In all likelihood, they will encounter the two cold-blooded li. Even if the two cold-blooded li are killed by the people who come in, if the three of them encounter them, it is estimated that there will be a fierce fight, and it is unknown who will win.
Tao Ling and Xiao Yishao looked at each other, and then smiled bitterly. The two originally came to complete the mission, but now the development of the situation seems to have exceeded their expectations.
They also knew very well that retreating now was not a wise choice, and they were also very curious about what was hidden in the cave.
In the end, the two of them gritted their teeth and followed Xiao Lin's flying sword.
However, they also overflowed their magic power from their bodies to form a spiritual power shield to resist the mysterious evil spirit in the cave.
