Chapter 472 Top-Quality Spiritual Stone
Xu Hei moved very quickly, checking their body parts one by one. After confirmation, he quickly burned them with the summoning fire, leaving no residue.
The storage bags of the four people also fell into Xu Hei's hands.
"Huh? Strange."
Xu Hei suddenly let out a surprised sound.
The storage bags of this group of people had very few supplies, almost nothing valuable, only some battle talismans and protective magic weapons they carried with them.
In addition, there were no cultivation resources, and even the spirit stones were pitifully few.
This was very unreasonable. They were all Yuanying cultivators, but apart from the things needed for battle, their entire wealth was not even as good as that of the Dan stage.
Even the Yuanying mid-stage cultivator was very poor.
This poured a basin of cold water on Xu Hei.
There were also some blue pills that Xu Hei had never seen before, which attracted his attention, but at first glance, they were not valuable.
Xu Hei pondered for a moment, put all the magic weapons and combat supplies carried by the four people into a new storage bag of his own, and then burned the four storage bags.
Xu Hei took out a soul-calling flag and injected soul power into it. Suddenly, there were some soul fragments floating in the air.
Xu Hei had no intention of searching souls, so he just opened his mouth and shouted, "Broken Dragon Roar!"
"Boom!"
The invisible ripples rushed past, and the residual souls of the four people were instantly torn into pieces, turning into nothingness, and truly annihilated.
Then, Xu Hei released the earth's artistic conception, tidied up the surrounding area, made traces of never fighting, and used the net tobacco pot to absorb the remaining smell, took away the flying sword, and put on the three-piece invisibility suit before leaving.
The set of movements was smooth and flowing, as if he was the robber who killed and robbed, and the four were the victims.
Not long after Xu Hei left.
A yellow-robed monk appeared here out of thin air. He glanced at the ground without any traces, and his face twitched slightly.
"Hmph! A bunch of trash."
The yellow-robed monk touched his eyebrows and directly used the soul-calling technique to try to summon the souls of the four people.
But it lasted for a long time, and not even a little soul residue appeared.
The yellow-robed monk's face became more and more gloomy. He flashed and searched around.
…………
The battlefield outside the domain is full of dangers. Even in seemingly peaceful areas, there are hidden murderous intentions. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.
Although Xu Hei did not see any human figures along the way, he could find that there were many dangers hidden here through his sense of smell and perception.
He took out the map given to him by the teacher and compared it. This place is a strange place and is not on the map.
"Let's leave here first."
Xu Hei sped up and moved straight ahead.
He had just killed someone, and it was the right thing to stay away from the scene. During this period, it was best not to do anything.
In this way, under Xu Hei's full-speed flight, three days passed. He flew out of the forest, crossed the mountains and rivers, and the environment became desolate. Xu Hei stopped.
He landed in a pile of rocks, sat cross-legged, and breathed quickly to fill his spiritual energy.
"This place is quite desolate, with dry air, hot climate and no wind. According to the terrain and climate, it may be the East Wilderness area of the Outer Realm Battlefield." Xu Hei said.
The Master does not have a map of the East Wilderness, so everything here can only be explored by himself.
The Outer Realm Battlefield is a fragment of the upper realm. It was knocked down in an ancient war and fell into the mortal world. It is itself an ancient battlefield.
Looking around, the ground is full of potholes, and traces of the war can be vaguely seen.
After Xu Hei recovered his strength, he flew aimlessly in the wilderness. After flying for a day, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"Strange, why is the spiritual energy here so thin?" Xu Hei frowned.
According to records, even in the East Wilderness, the spiritual energy is far beyond the lower realm, but here, it is already on par with the lower realm.
There are also some rare places in the Outer Realm Battlefield where spiritual energy is scarce. If it were an ordinary person, he would immediately stay away from these places.
But Xu Hei is not an ordinary person, he feels something is wrong.
Something must be strange when something is out of the ordinary.
Xu Hei spread his consciousness and looked around. He could not find any clues on this flat and open wasteland. He only found some dilapidated buildings. From the appearance, they looked like the remains of a sect from ancient times.
Xu Hei immediately set off and entered the ruins of the sect. As expected, this place had been plundered by the predecessors, and not even a hair was left.
On the fallen stone tablet at the door, four big characters can still be vaguely seen: Piaomiao Xianzong.
With the name of Xianzong, one can imagine what kind of place the upper world is.
"The spiritual energy is so thin, but there is a relic of Xianzong. It's not right, it's very wrong!" Xu Hei's intuition became stronger and stronger.
Logically speaking, a place with a sect must be a rare blessed place!
But here, it's the opposite. The spiritual energy is at a low point. Why did the sect address be established in such a place back then?
Although countless years have passed, the world has changed, and the rules of the past may not apply to the present, but Xu Hei always feels that something is wrong.
"Jiying, what do you think?" Xu Hei asked.
"Why, don't you want to think about it? You can donate it to me for thinking." Jiying's voice came faintly.
"Just pretend I didn't say anything." Xu Hei was speechless.
He pondered for a moment, took out Yu Jianqiu's black cloth, covered his eyes, blocked his five senses, and only relied on the sixth sense to explore.
Under his extremely meticulous observation, he still couldn't see any clues.
However, there was always a faint sense of crisis in his heart.
Xu Hei had an idea and retreated outside the ruins of the Immortal Sect. Most of the sense of crisis disappeared immediately. The farther away he got, the less the sense of crisis became.
And as he moves forward, the crisis will slowly become more intense.
Xu Hei's sixth sense is not good at exploration, but it is the best for omens of danger.
"There must be a problem!" Xu Heixin said.
The area around here is deserted, and the ruins have been dilapidated for countless years and have been explored by countless predecessors. It is impossible that there are any dangerous mechanisms left.
This only means one problem, someone is watching here, and the source of danger can only be people.
With a thought in Xu Hei's mind, he immediately sank into the ground and used Earth Escape to get closer.
This is not an ordinary earth escape technique, but the earth escape technique inherited from the earth dragon Mo Cang. It is an earth element magical escape technique that will not leave any traces.
…………
And just when Xu Hei was investigating the Piaomiao Immortal Sect.
On the wasteland, a silver-haired girl stood calmly, with no expression on her young face, and three corpses were lying around her.
To be precise, three piles of body parts.
The corpse had been divided into countless squares, including their magic weapons, which were all evenly broken into squares, which was very strange.
Ah Yin was similar to Xu Hei. Xu Hei was attacked just after landing, while she was attacked after walking for two days.
The group of people who attacked and killed her were similar to the group of people who attacked Xu Hei. They used dragnets and poisonous formations to stab them. She easily avoided them with her space escape method and completed the counterattack.
However, Ah Yin obviously does not have Xu Hei's ability to destroy corpses and eliminate traces. In the past, these things were all done by the Chutian Alliance.
Not long after, a yellow-robed monk appeared. His face was gloomy. Without saying a word, he opened his hand and made a big flaming handprint, crushing towards Ah Yin.
"Boom!!"
After the handprint was pressed, Ah Yin's body became insubstantial. While avoiding the blow, he quickly escaped towards the distant sky.
"The person who killed me cannot escape today!"
The yellow-robed monk's heart was bleeding. This was already the second wave. Two waves of hunters died in a row and he didn't even catch a fish. How should he explain this?
At that moment, the yellow-robed monk's palms were filled with flames and he was chasing A Yin.
…………
Eastern Wasteland, Piaomiao Immortal Sect.
Xu Hei relied on his sixth sense to explore the ruins inside and out, and finally determined the source of the danger, which was located underground in the southeast of the sect.
He has checked this place countless times and found no clues. The predecessors have also dug three feet into the ground and dug out all the land. Even if there is a treasure, it has been dug up long ago, and it is impossible for anyone to find it.
But he happened to meet Xu Hei.
Xu Hei turned around and faced down, sinking towards the ground at a terrifying speed.
It had been sinking for half an hour. Xu Hei didn't know how deep it had sunk, but he could faintly see blue-red magma flowing.
Finally, Xu Hei came to the area with the thinnest spiritual energy. The spiritual energy here was almost zero.
Here, Xu Hei finally took off the black cloth covering his eyes and saw clearly what was ahead.
Here, there were eight formation flags planted in eight directions, leaving behind a formation. Xu Hei had never seen this formation before, but it had the effect of absorbing spiritual energy.
It can absorb all the spiritual energy within a thousand miles radius and inhale it into the formation.
The final flow direction of the spiritual energy is the center point of the formation, which Xu Hei cannot see clearly.
"Haha, I understand, that's it!" Xu Hei suddenly realized.
No wonder the spiritual energy near the Immortal Sect is thin. It turns out that someone set up a formation here to swallow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and gather it at the center point.
This Piaomiao Immortal Sect must be a blessed place for cultivation, but the other party obviously does not intend to stay here for a long time, so he collects the spiritual energy in this way and comes to collect it when the battlefield outside the territory opens.
Collected every ten years.
In just a blink of an eye, Xu Hei guessed most of the formation master's purpose. He immediately entered the vicinity of the formation, spent a stick of incense, carved out the thirty-six Tiangang Star Sword Formation, and forcibly broke the eight-pole formation flag.
Then, Xu Hei straightened up and came to the center of the formation.
I saw a fist-sized transparent orb in the center. Inside the orb, the rich spiritual energy had crystallized and turned into pieces of crystals.
Xu Hei's pupils shrank, and even with his calm personality, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "The best spiritual stone?!"
That's right! The spiritual energy crystal in this orb is the highest level spiritual stone, the best spiritual stone!
As long as they have the best spiritual stones, Nascent Soul stage monks can quickly improve their cultivation anywhere, and even the God Transformation stage monks regard them as treasures.
The best spiritual stone is a treasure that can improve one's cultivation even during the stage of becoming a god.
It is impossible to give birth to the best spiritual stone in the mortal world. It is not that the amount of spiritual energy is insufficient, but that the quality is insufficient. This is the essential difference.
As his thoughts turned around, Xu Hei immediately realized that the owner of this formation was probably something very important. He might be a large sect with a god-transformation stage, and specially sent his disciples to collect the best spiritual stones.
Since he broke through it, Xu Hei made a quick decision and grabbed the orb.
Xu Hei was reluctant to destroy such a precious orb, but he was also afraid that the other party would leave behind tracking methods, so Xu Hei decisively used the fifth form of the Canglong Immortal Technique, Lei Yin!
"Boom!!"
Electricity was generated in the void and exploded, hitting the orb's bull's-eye. Countless cracks opened on it. Xu Hei's arm turned into a dragon's claw and suddenly reached out to take away the top-quality spiritual stone.
One piece, half a piece...
A total of one and a half top-quality spiritual stones.
After Xu Hei took away the spirit stone, the sense of crisis in his heart suddenly reached the limit. He did not care about taking away the sword formation and the eight formation flags. He immediately withdrew and retreated quickly, escaping quickly with the earth hiding, wandering in the ground veins.
In just a few breaths, Xu Hei disappeared in the distance.
"Buzz!!"
The space twisted, and suddenly a figure came out from the side of the eight formation flags. This person was only a phantom and two black eyes.
He looked at the empty formation center and the broken spirit gathering gem, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"Who dared to steal the spirit stone of my Tianhen Sword Sect! Who is it!"
The black shadow was obviously not the real body of that person, and could only be helpless and furious, but it was instantly submerged by the infinite sword light, and the phantom was chopped off here.
Xu Hei's guess was not wrong.
This is indeed the place where the other party used to make top-grade spirit stones. There are more than one such place. Any sect ruins with conditions will become a manufacturing site.
However, the frequency of collecting this relic is not once every ten years, but once every thirty years.
It takes twenty years to produce a top-grade spirit stone.
In order to prevent being discovered, the Tianhen Sword Sect does not come frequently, only once every thirty years. This year happened to be the year to collect it, but someone got there first.
