"Is this the 'blood-drinking worm'?" Ling Ba exclaimed, and a layer of light flashed on his body, and the flying sword under his feet also rose one foot.
Leng Cui, who was on guard, sighed and said: "It is recorded in the classics that the 'blood-drinking worm' is born with the help of yin and evil spirits, and is bloodthirsty. After silently invading the body of the cultivator, it uses blood and flesh as a medium to quickly devour the heart, veins, tendons and marrow until the body explodes and dies. However, if you pay a little attention to it, it will not be a big deal! It's just a pity for this woman..."
Leng Cui's words contained helplessness, and perhaps an inexplicable compassion. Is she really regretting the passing of a life as beautiful as a flower, or is it a woman's nature...
Dream Fairy! Dream Fairy! The fairy is still in the dream, and where will the person go?
The four waited for a moment, and the cave became quiet. Lin Yi stood still, as if he was unaware of everything that had just happened, but his expression was a little indifferent. Yan Qi glanced at him lightly and said, "There are two cave entrances here. Which one should we go to? Do you have any advice?"
"This woman was previously infected with the 'blood-drinking worm'. Hong'er knew that she would die, so she took her into the cave..." Lin Yi replied softly.
Yan Qi's eyes narrowed, and after a while, he said, "So, you have already noticed that Hong'er is different..."
"The abnormality has already existed, and it is not different for me, Lin Yi. In addition, that Mengxian had symptoms of poisoning when he was outside the cave, and who would tell it..." Lin Yi said faintly, and then said, "Just like the two caves in front of us, which one does it matter?"
Yan Qi held his green beard and looked at Lin Yi deeply. His face was as dark as water, but there was a trace of surprise, two points of appreciation, and three points of suspicion in his eyes. Perhaps, there was also an inexplicable hesitation entangled in his heart.
Leng Cui looked at the two of them and said, "Lin Yi, the future is unpredictable. We must work together!"
Lin Yi agreed and said, "Master Leng is right!"
Yan Qi said no more and turned to step into the cave on the right and walked forward. Leng Cui nodded to Lin Yi and followed him with Ling Ba. The latter did not forget to snort at someone to show his dissatisfaction.
…
After just a cup of tea, the cave became tortuous, and the black and red smoke was as thick as water and ink, with a bit of palpitating breath in the cold.
Not far ahead, the cave suddenly became larger. When the four stopped, they were already in a cave several feet high and dozens of feet in diameter. Looking around, the smoke continued to gather in the center of the cave. And on the surrounding stone wall, four or five holes of different sizes appeared.
Cave, cave again! At this time, it seemed as if he had returned to the Golden Centipede Cave in Xuantian Fairyland again, which made Lin Yi fall into helplessness. When he was paying attention to his surroundings, suddenly a pink figure flashed through the cave, and then suddenly disappeared into one of the cave entrances.
That was Hong'er's figure!
Before the four people could think about it, Hong'er's exclamation came from the cave entrance——
"Palace Master...Uncle Master..."
Without seeing the person, only hearing her voice, one can feel Hong'er's surprise! I think she found Madam Gan Yu of Hongyun Palace!
Suddenly finding someone, Ling Ba was so surprised that he wanted to go to the cave to see what was going on. But Lin Yi frowned and hesitated.
Yan Qi looked back at the expressions of the two people, and nodded gently to Leng Cui, also hesitant.
Leng Cui's eyes swept over Lin Yi, and she smiled at Yan Qi, saying, "Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, and it's hard to tell the real from the fake. And we can only counter the moves when we see them. Otherwise, why bother going through this journey! Just be careful!"
The two of them were in tune with each other, and Leng Cui naturally knew what the other was thinking. Yan Qi had a high opinion of himself and was not someone who would easily fear the enemy. At this moment, it was useless to think too much. He flashed and went straight to the cave entrance. Ling Ba was already impatient and followed closely behind. But the Leng Pavilion Master was not in a hurry at all, but smiled at someone and said, "In a critical moment, you can show your skills! Lin Yi, are you willing to let Pavilion Master Ling take the lead?"
"Haha! I'm just here to join in the fun..." Lin Yi looked humble, waved his hand and laughed dryly, and then followed slowly. Leng Cui behind him chuckled and said, "Your ease and humor are comparable to Senior Le Chengzi, and people dare not underestimate you!"
Easy? Humor? Is this really a leisurely place? Talking to this woman is really exhausting. Lin Yi accelerated his pace and rushed into the cave, but felt his body suddenly fall. He was shocked, and his strength ran through his limbs, landing steadily on the ground, and then he looked at it intently--
There is a cave in the cave! This is another cave of dozens of feet in size. The difference is that there are three people sitting cross-legged in the smoke and mist. Hong'er turned around and stopped shouting, looking at the four people from Zhengyang Sect in surprise. However, the woman immediately said with a happy expression: "This is the Palace Master of my Hongyun Palace and the two elders Shuixiu and Shuiying, but the situation of the three of them is worrying. I hope several seniors can lend a hand!"
Yan Qi ignored Hong'er's words, and instead looked around with a gloomy face. Ling Ba and Leng Cui also noticed something strange in the cave. They didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief for finding the people from Hongyun Palace, and they became alert.
At this time, Madam Ganyu and the two elders, who were wrapped in clouds of smoke, all closed their eyes and looked unconscious!
Looking at everything in front of him, Lin Yi thought of the plot plotted by Qiu Caiying under the Heishui Cliff, and felt something bad. The clouds and fog in the cave were a bit thicker than what they had seen before. When I was in it and activated my spiritual energy to protect the head and tail, I only felt that my body was heavy, and the movement of my spiritual energy was much sluggish. Fortunately, the four of them were not weak in cultivation and could walk without any hindrance after landing. And is this the trap set by the Black Mountain Sect?
Lin Yi moved his feet and wanted to return to the cave entrance from whence he came. Yan Qi snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to grab the three people on the ground, and did not forget to give instructions: "This smoke contains evil spirits and has the ability to hinder spiritual power. Get out of here quickly..." He was closest to the people in Hongyun Palace and stretched out his hand. Then the person can be rescued. Leng Cui and Ling Ba didn't dare to neglect, so they turned around and left. But a sudden change occurred, and the smoke floating three feet above the ground suddenly surged -
From entering the cave to now, it is just a time to breathe. The obstruction of spiritual power and the abnormal situation in the cave were not allowed to be thought about. Just when Yan Qi was about to save people, the entire cave was instantly engulfed in boiling smoke. Then there was a roar like the sky was falling and the earth was falling——
"Rumble--"
Before Lin Yi could reach the entrance of the cave where he came from, he felt that his feet were empty and he was falling into the dark sky and black ground. In the midst of his busy schedule, the Xuantian Shield came out of his body. He stretched out his hand and pulled out the black gold iron rod and swung it, protecting his whole body tightly. But the force of the fall continues unabated, and there seems to be a bottomless abyss below——
The surroundings were getting darker and darker, and the cold air was getting heavier and heavier. Lin Yi couldn't help but shudder. Not good! The dragon armor is slowly fading away, and the Xuantian Shield seems to be unable to retain its spiritual power and is slowly retracting back into the body. But the spiritual consciousness that was still able to be driven has become difficult. It was just a cup of tea, and it fell hundreds of feet deep. And if this continues, isn't it equivalent to the loss of cultivation? Compared to the encounter at Blackwater Cliff, this time the trouble is much bigger!
Amidst the howling wind, an even more intense cold air hit his face. Lin Yi suddenly picked up the iron rod in his hand and smashed it down——
"boom--"
Amidst the roaring sound, huge force surged wildly in an instant. Lin Yi couldn't hold on, and the iron rod suddenly bounced up and flew away. There was another muffled sound of "Bang——", and his feet landed on the ground, but he couldn't help but fall, and he suddenly sat down on the ground. Before he woke up from the shock, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard one after another in his ears, and among the "bang bang" sounds, there were also people moaning in pain.
Without thinking much, Lin turned over and pulled the iron rod back into his hand, raised his head and looked around——
This is a cave about a hundred feet in size, with white stone walls and a cold light. With a little movement of your eyes, you can see clearly what's going on around you.
The moment you enter your eyes, you are shrouded in a layer of black and red smoke, and the huge cave seems to be immersed in a piece of black and red 'bloody water'. There are also undulating black stone hills scattered here and there, like rocks on the water. And it was these monks from Zhengyang Sect and Hongyun Palace who were trapped in this blood stain.
The three monks from Hongyun Palace were sitting upright, unaware of the movements around them; Hong'er was vomiting blood and lying on the ground looking miserable; Ling Ba was struggling to get up, his face getting paler and his expression revealing. He was panicking; General Leng Cui stood firm, with a look of surprise on his face as well; and the only person who stood as straight as a pine tree was Yan Qi, but his expression was cold.
Lin Yi slowly straightened up and looked at the people not far away again. He fell from a height of hundreds of feet. At the critical moment, his spiritual power failed to obey him, so he fell so hard. It was all due to the strength of his muscles and bones, so it was not a serious problem. But those people are in different situations,
Hong'er's cultivation was poor and she fell the worst; Leng Cui and Ling Ba's breaths were uneven and their bodies were shaky. These two people were obviously seriously injured and were just trying to hold on. But Yan Qi is not seriously ill, he is a Nascent Soul cultivator after all! The most surprising thing is that the three female cultivators from Hongyun Palace must have cast some secret technique. Although they did not wake up, they all appeared unscathed...
Yan Qi slowly turned around, glanced at Lin Yi, then gently shook his head at Leng Cui beside him, and actually sat down. The latter's expression showed uneasiness and helplessness, and he turned and said softly: "Pavilion Master Ling, let's go and give it a try..." Ling Ba nodded heavily, raised his hands in response, and walked aside.
Lin Yi punched the iron rod in his hand on the ground and looked at all this quietly without saying a word, but his heart felt as cold as an ice cellar! Just now he secretly tried to adjust his breath, but a sudden cold force in his meridians blocked the spiritual power in the golden elixir. My cultivation is temporarily gone, but it doesn't matter. This is not the first time this has happened. But what was even more terrifying was that when he wanted to explore the cave, the sea of consciousness seemed to be sealed, making it impossible to use his divine consciousness...
