Chapter 16 Cracks

Du Chengjin couldn't help but be curious, and asked Hu Zhenhua in front of him softly: "Master Hu, this cave has reached the end, where is the secret place?"

"Don't ask too much, just wait." Hu Zhenhua said coldly.

I don't know whether Hu Zhenhua was impatient to say more or he didn't know himself, and he dismissed Du Chengjin with one sentence. Hu Zhenhua always had this attitude, not to mention asking Hu Zhensong and the other immortal masters. Others immediately gave up the idea, and the surroundings fell into silence.

The quiet cave seemed to have no danger at all, but everyone's mood was always extremely dull. The longer the time, the more they felt that there seemed to be a huge danger waiting for everyone. But now that things have come to this, it is impossible to regret, and they can only stick to the end.

After nearly half an hour, everyone was a little impatient to wait. Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound in front of them. Everyone hurried forward and saw that a ray of light had appeared on the wall at some point. The light was very weak. If it weren't for everyone standing in front of it and being a sharp-eyed person in the martial arts world, it would be difficult to notice the change.

Then the area of ​​the light became larger and larger, and gradually it turned into a crack that was an inch wide. Yes, it was a crack, and you could even vaguely see behind the crack. No one expected that a crack would suddenly appear on the stone wall.

As the crack expanded, suddenly a faint smoke came out of the crack and rushed towards the martial arts people in front.

Everyone present was an old martial arts expert. Although they had made some necessary responses, they still underestimated this strange change. Moreover, the smoke appeared too suddenly, and it was colorless and odorless and could not be blocked. They were caught off guard and inhaled some of it.

Everyone's face suddenly changed. If there was poison in the smoke, wouldn't everyone die in this cave? Did the immortal masters ask everyone to come here just to test the poison?

They looked back and found that it was not the case. The immortal masters behind them seemed to have inhaled a lot of light smoke, but they did not show anxiety or annoyance. Instead, they had an unnatural intoxication on their faces. What was going on?

Then everyone felt that the light smoke had no toxic side effects and seemed to have some benefits for the body. The fatigue of the whole body was swept away. Especially Qian Banxian, who had internal injuries, took a deep breath and felt that the injuries in his body seemed to be lighter.

Qingyang and others did not know that the light smoke leaked from the crack was actually the spiritual energy that was indispensable for immortal cultivators. Except for the cave paradise occupied by immortal cultivators, the spiritual energy in the outside world is generally very scarce. Several immortal masters were away from home and the cultivation conditions were poor. They had not been exposed to such rich spiritual energy for a long time, which made them so intoxicated.

Except for immortal cultivators who have learned the immortal cultivation method, ordinary people cannot absorb and refine spiritual energy, but it cannot be said that spiritual energy is useless to ordinary people. If they live in a place with richer spiritual energy for a long time, the physical fitness and various abilities of ordinary people will be subtly improved. However, this process was too slow for ordinary people to notice. Only those people in the martial arts world who were present had a keen sense of perception and were exposed to such a rich spiritual energy for the first time, so they had that illusion.

Seeing that the crack had already appeared and it was almost noon, the Immortal Master Xiying behind shouted: "Others, get out of the way, Xiping and Xining, do it together!"

Everyone didn't understand what the immortal masters were going to do, but they also knew that they couldn't be negligent, so they quickly stepped back a few steps and gave the middle position to the three immortal masters.

At this time, the Immortal Master Xiping waved his right hand, and a small golden flying sword appeared in his palm. The flying sword swelled in the wind, and in a blink of an eye it became more than a foot long, golden, and emitting dazzling light. Then the Immortal Master Xiping waved his hand, and the golden flying sword seemed to have life, and it actually slashed towards the crack by itself.

At the same time, the Immortal Master Xining on the other side also summoned a red oil lamp. I don't know what he did, the oil lamp hummed lightly, and a bright red flame ignited. Then, Master Xi Ning blew gently at the oil lamp, and the red flame immediately flew to the crack, and the entire crack began to burn.

Seeing this scene, Qing Yang and other people in the martial arts world were stunned. Remotely controlling the flying sword and taking fire from a distance, this is too magical, right? No wonder everyone envied the master so much, these methods were really powerful, and they were no worse than the legendary gods.

The red flames, from such a distance, everyone could feel the scorching temperature on it. If they were touched, they would be burned to ashes in an instant. As for the golden flying sword, it was very powerful, with a strong murderous aura. If you touch it, you will die. If you touch it, you will die. Faced with such means, the people of the martial arts world are simply powerless to resist, and running away is useless. Looking at all this, Qingyang's heart became more and more fiery.

The crack seemed to be very elastic. Being hit by the flying sword and the flame at the same time, he just swung it lightly to remove most of the attack. The remaining force only increased the width of the crack by less than one finger. After that, as the attack power was lost, the crack began to heal slowly.

At this time, Master Xiying's palms came out together, and he quickly made a complicated spell. A ball of green energy formed in his hands, and then he swung it lightly and hit the crack.

Xiying Immortal Master's skill is indeed powerful. Although he only launched an attack with his bare hands without any weapons, his power is greater than that of Xiping and Xining Immortal Masters combined. With just this palm, the crack was expanded to two inches wide.

Immortal Master Xiying's attack had just been completed, and the attacks of the other two immortal masters followed one after another. They were divided into two groups and kept attacking, not giving the crack a chance to recover. Not long after, the crack gradually expanded to more than one foot wide, enough for one person to walk through.

At this time, Immortal Master Xiying was in a better situation. Immortal Master Xiping and Immortal Master Xining were sweating on their foreheads, and more than half of their vitality had been consumed. After all, their cultivation was lower, and it was not enough to support their long-term consumption.

It was Immortal Master Xiying's turn to attack again, but this time he did not launch an attack, but took out two black seeds and threw them in front of him, and then two arm-thick vines suddenly grew out. The vine grew bigger and bigger, and gradually stretched into the crack. Then countless branches emerged from the two vines, entwined and pulled each other, tearing the crack.

As the vine grew, Xiying Xianshi's face finally showed a trace of paleness, which was a sign of excessive consumption of vitality. It can be seen that controlling the growth of the vine and propping up the crack in front is also very energy-consuming for someone like Xiying Xianshi.
