Chapter 342 Uninvited
After seeing Song Qingming finish speaking, he stared at the traces on the ground, thinking about something in his heart. Huang Sibo and Song Qingyu showed a trace of doubt on their faces.
"Fellow Daoist Song, since this person did not kill the fire-scaled leopard, but only drove it away from here, I guess he is either a master who does not want others to know, or his cultivation is not much different from ours, and he can only defeat this monster and has no ability to kill the fire-scaled leopard. Even so, we don't need to worry too much."
"Well! Seventh Brother, Fellow Daoist Huang's analysis is good. Even if this person is still hiding nearby, as long as he has no ill intentions towards us, we don't need to care who he is."
Song Qingming turned around and smiled and nodded to Huang Sibo, saying: "What you said makes some sense, but it's always right to be more vigilant. You two should pay more attention recently. You two should go to other places first. There are dark caves everywhere in this cave, so be careful. I will collect some materials on the ground and go back to Qinghefang to ask Fellow Daoist Feng to see if he knows anything about this person's origin."
Huang Sibo and Song Qingyu immediately responded when they saw this, and then left the cave and went to other places to check.
After the two left, Song Qingming took out a soundproofing note and covered himself with it. He then asked the empty cave softly, "Senior Feng He, can you tell what the cultivation level of the person hiding here is?"
"You are really flattering me. How long has this person been gone? How can I be sure of his cultivation level? Do you really think I can see everything?"
Hearing Feng He's words, Song Qingming apologized quickly, "Senior, please don't blame me. I just feel that the person hiding here is a little bit uneasy. I am afraid that if this person is a Jindan or Yuanying cultivator, it will be unsafe for you to follow me all the time."
"Don't worry. Although I can't be sure of this person's cultivation level, it is definitely impossible for him to be a cultivator above the Jindan level. However, your feeling is correct. I just used my spiritual sense to carefully explore it and found a trace of residual demonic energy. The person hiding here may be one of those sneaky demon cultivators."
"What? It's a demon cultivator." Hearing that there might be a foundation-building demon hiding here, Song Qingming's face suddenly changed.
He personally experienced the battle to eliminate the demon Yang Wuqi, and also witnessed the destruction caused by these foundation-building demon cultivators who practiced the magic skills. A good sacred mountain can be turned into a hell with corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river by these demon cultivators in just a few months.
"Haha! Why are you panicking? It is possible that this person has the breath left by the magic weapon, and he may not be a real demon cultivator.
Even if he is a real demon cultivator, his cultivation level cannot exceed the Jindan realm. I have dealt with those high-level demon cultivators in the past, and I have ways to deal with them. As long as this demon dares to show up in front of you, hehe, I will make sure he can't leave." Feng He said confidently.
"In that case, if I really encounter this demon in the future, I will have to rely on my seniors!" Song Qingming showed a happy smile on his face.
After collecting some residual refining materials on the ground, Song Qingming got up and left this place. After walking a few dozen feet deep into the cave, he ran into Huang Sibo and Song Qingyu who were returning from inside.
"Seventh Brother, we have checked inside and only found a few spiritual herbs, nothing else." After seeing Song Qingming, Song Qingyu nodded slightly to him.
"In that case, let's leave here first! Although this place is a good second-level spiritual vein, it's a pity that the location is deep in the Yunwu Mountain and it's not very useful. This time we have found the reason why the monster beast invaded Qinghe County, and our trip is worthwhile."
After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took Song Qingyu and the other two back to the cave.
However, just after walking out of the cave, what surprised the three of them was that a red light suddenly appeared in the distant sky and was flying towards the mountain.
"Seventh Brother! This is a second-level monster beast, it seems to be the original fire scale leopard."
"Humph! It should want to take back its nest, hide in the cave quickly." Hearing Song Qingyu say this, Song Qingming was immediately happy, and hurriedly took the two back to the cave to hide their bodies.
A moment later, a leopard with a red glow all over its body poked its head and entered the cave cautiously.
This fire-scaled leopard has been entrenched in this secondary spiritual vein for nearly a hundred years. A few months ago, a strange human cultivator came here, defeated it and drove it away.
The fire-scaled leopard wandered outside with a group of low-level monsters for several months, but never found a stable place to settle down. Although this fire-scaled leopard lost to that person in several head-on fights, it still missed its nest. Every once in a while, it would secretly run back to see if there was a chance to take back its spiritual mountain and territory.
But what it didn't know was that although the person who drove it away had already left this place, there were other people waiting for it in the cave.
Not long after the fire-scaled leopard entered the cave, it saw that the person who drove it out of its nest had not shown up this time, and thought that this person was not in the cave now, and couldn't help but feel a little happy.
However, before it could be happy for long, it suddenly ran into a man and a woman in the depths of the cave and attacked it directly. The fire-scaled leopard would be stronger in this cave full of fire-attribute spiritual energy. Seeing that someone was ambushing it, the already alerted fire-scaled leopard immediately ran out of the cave.
However, just when the fire-scaled leopard was about to escape to the cave entrance, a tall figure had already stood at the entrance, blocking its way.
Before, at the entrance of the cave, after seeing the fire-scaled leopard coming here from a distance, Song Qingming asked Huang Sibo and Song Qingyu to hide in the depths of the cave, and he himself hid his breath with the help of the hidden spirit shirt and hid directly near the entrance of the cave.
When the fire-scaled leopard fell into the trap and entered the cave, Song Qingming and the other two attacked from the front and back, and now blocked it effortlessly.
This fire scale leopard was just a monster in the early stage of foundation building. It might not be able to defeat Song Qingyu in a single battle. Now facing the siege of three foundation building cultivators who were no less powerful than it, it soon couldn't resist and was killed by Song Qingming and others in its former nest.
Song Qingming and his friends didn't expect that they didn't find this monster in the cave before. When they were about to leave, the fire scale leopard came uninvited and fell into their encirclement, and lost its life.
