Chapter 302 Demonic Insect
Red Rainbow Stone is the main target of Taoist Jingfang's trip. As the leader of the team, he naturally completes his mission first.
As for those second-level disciples, most of them collect some specialty crystals or special insect corpses, no matter which direction they go.
"Walk!"
There was a formation barrier outside the palace door. Under the urging of the puppet beast, the barrier opened, revealing a passage, and dozens of practitioners walked out of the palace one after another.
The place outside the palace is deep and dark, with no end in sight.
"Is this still the world of monsters and beasts? Why are there no sun, moon and stars?" A disciple exclaimed.
"It is naturally the world of monsters and beasts, but it is deep underground," a third-level cultivator explained. "The Demonic Insect Cave is at the very depths of the world of monsters and beasts. Without the help of a teleportation array, it would have to pass through hundreds of thousands of feet. Only the Earth’s crust can make it this far. I’m afraid no one can do it except those who are strong in the Douxiao Realm.”
"Deep in the Earth's crust?"
Gu Xiuyun was a little surprised, and quickly found out his soul thoughts and spread them around.
This place seemed to be a vast plain, but in fact it was undulating, but the slope was very small, and the surrounding was deep and dark, so no one noticed it.
The highest rock wall above their heads is about a thousand feet, and the lowest is only a dozen feet. It would be impossible for a larger monster to walk in the cave.
"Be careful. Demonic insects rarely stay on this level. Most of them gather in caves, but whenever they appear, they are definitely in groups." Taoist Jingfang reminded everyone.
"Junior brother, follow me closely."
Taoist Jingde's spiritual energy surged around his body, forming a protective spiritual shield that covered Gu Xiuyun.
"Tao Yun breath?"
Gu Xiuyun was a little surprised.
Being able to understand the secret technique of Daoyun-level body protection, Taoist Jingde’s strength is not simple!
Everyone followed the fixed route and walked deeper into the Demonic Insect Cave.
The crystals and jade near the palace had long been taken out, so they almost didn't stop until they had traveled thousands of miles before stopping.
"Listen up, everyone is responsible for the Qianzhang area, searching for crystal stones and spiritual materials. If you find a demonic insect, don't shout or take action. Get away from that place first."
After Taoist Jingfang gave the order, he selected an area alone to explore.
Crystal stones and spiritual materials are buried deep underground. You need to dig up the surface and go dozens of feet deep to find them.
The soil and rocks are extremely hard, so even if it is an area of 1,000 feet, it will take a long time to rummage.
Taoist Jingde took Gu Xiuyun to a relatively remote corner, and then began to use secret techniques to dig out earth and rocks.
Poof!
Lian Guang pointed out that the sword energy fell on the hard rock, and it only penetrated half a foot. Taoist Jingde showed joy, "The earth and rocks here have never been excavated, and there may be treasures hidden underneath."
As he spoke, he used his sword energy several times to crack the rock, and then started digging.
"Brother, let me help you."
Gu Xiuyun also followed suit and used his Light Refining Finger.
Poof! Poof!
Each sword energy penetrated deep into the earth and stone, almost as much as the sword energy of Taoist Jingde.
"Um?"
Taoist Jingde's eyes widened with surprise, "Junior brother, what you just used was the Light Refining Finger Sword Qi? Why is it so powerful?"
"Senior brother, don't you know?" Gu Xiuyun was curious, "The second level of heaven I opened is the Jinxing heaven pass. Feng Lin has already used it at the meeting. I thought senior brother knew about it."
"Jin Xing Tian Guan, so what you just used was the Four Restricted Metal Xing Sword Qi?" Taoist Jingde's eyes widened, "I thought the two types of Tian Guan you opened were water and wood, but they were actually earth and metal. You This kid, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I owe you a favor in vain.”
If they knew that Gu Xiuyun had mastered the four forbidden secrets and opened up the Jinxing Tianguan, there would be no need for Taoist Jingde to ask. Jingfang would have already pulled them into the team!
These masters are no less powerful than those from the third level.
"I thought the family had already told senior brother, so I didn't say more."
Gu Xiuyun touched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
News about the Fenglin Society would be transmitted to the Ruoshui Sect through the letter talisman, so Taoist Jingde was not surprised when Gu Xiuyun entered the courtyard, and other clan members immediately recognized him.
If we don’t summon you in advance, who will be able to tell the difference if a swindler comes along?
"You brat," Taoist Jingde laughed angrily, "How much content can the messenger talisman record? It's only three or four sentences. How can it be said in such detail?"
Gu Xiuyun blinked. The letter talisman used by the clan was actually so inferior. It could only record three or four sentences?
The Eight-Eyed Sect's talismans can even carve out a detailed formation diagram.
"That's all, you have such strength, so
That's a good thing," Taoist Jingde pointed to the other side, "Junior brother, I'll leave that area to you. Let's dig more places, maybe we can get some extra gains. "
"good!"
Gu Xiuyun walked hundreds of feet away alone, sword energy flying from his fingertips, instantly splitting the rocks on the surface.
At the same time, his soul thought had penetrated deep into the ground.
The rock in the earth's crust is extremely tough, several times harder than black iron, and is a spiritual material in itself.
As spiritual materials, these rocks have a strong obstacle to spiritual power. Standing on the ground, spiritual power can only penetrate three feet underground at most, so Taoist Jingfang will recruit a team to dig together.
He alone may not be able to gather enough red rainbow stones even if he stays in the Demonic Insect Cave for half a year.
But these spiritual materials can resist spiritual power, but they cannot block soul thoughts.
The souls of Douxiao Realm masters are as solid as substance, and their soul thoughts spread like countless threads, covering an area of ten miles in radius.
This area is not only the surroundings, but also the top and the bottom.
This is a method that can only be used by the soul of Douxiao Realm.
For a sixth-level Kaimai strongman, no matter how huge the soul is, it is still illusory and cannot exist independently from the body.
In Gu Xiuyun's perception, there are two demon insect caves within ten miles, both about a hundred feet underground. One of them has thirty-seven demon insects, and the other has two hundred and sixty-four demon insects.
"More than two hundred demon insects are already considered a medium-sized insect swarm. This is a bit troublesome!"
Gu Xiuyun's mind flashed.
Even if a small insect cave with thirty-seven demon insects appeared, everyone could quickly deal with it, but the threat of a medium-sized insect cave is much greater.
More than two hundred demon insects comparable to the second-level Kaimai rushed up, and at least half of the practitioners here would die.
"Well, leave the small insect cave, as for the big insect cave, let's deal with it first!"
Gu Xiuyun's mind moved, and the Tianxing field formed an invisible huge force, squeezing towards the depths of the ground.
Puff! Puff!
Those demon insects didn't even have a chance to resist, and were suppressed to death by the huge force. Only two sturdy demon insects held on for a few more breaths, but they soon died.
The Tianxing Domain was an absolute crushing blow to these demon insects that had not even reached the fourth level of the Meridian Opening Realm.
Gu Xiuyun didn't even use his secret method, but just activated the power of the domain itself.
