Chapter 493 The Mysterious Old Man (1/2)
"If that's the case, then this venomous snake is too sinister, isn't it?"
"It said before that it was just an ordinary venomous snake, not a transformed monster."
"How dare it sneak attack me?"
"It's just bullying!"
Xiao Yifei said angrily.
Then he continued to search.
Hope to find some clues.
Otherwise, he would be trapped to death in this place.
However, soon, his face became a little stiff.
Because just now, he found a line of handwriting in a corner.
This line of handwriting reads:
I have taken the treasure on this island.
Please don't chase it anymore!
Seeing this line of handwriting, Xiao Yifei was stunned.
Then he suddenly realized.
Understand the meaning of this sentence.
Obviously, the reason why this poisonous dragon appeared on this deserted island was because it was deliberately arranged by someone.
And this person who arranged it is very likely the mastermind behind locking him up on this deserted island.
"Who is this person?"
"He imprisoned me here, it must not be for no reason."
"So, who is this person?"
Xiao Yifei pondered secretly.
At the same time, many speculations emerged in his mind.
For example...
Wan Feng sent his disciples to pretend to be Du Long to capture him.
But by mistake, he brought him to this deserted island.
Or, Wan Feng knew that Du Long had a treasure, so he deliberately designed to frame him.
It is even possible that the other party wanted to use Du Long's poison to kill him.
In short.
All kinds of possibilities exist.
But no matter which possibility, it is enough to show that this person is definitely not easy to mess with.
Xiao Yifei's mind turned rapidly.
Try every possible way to find out the real culprit behind it.
Unfortunately, after a round of scanning, there is still no clue.
"Strange!"
"This man's strength should be far stronger than mine."
"Moreover, he seems to be extremely afraid of the poisonous dragon's poison technique."
"I don't want to take the risk of getting close."
"But... why did he go to the trouble of sending me to this deserted island?"
"Is there some kind of connection between this man and the poisonous dragon?"
"Or is the value of the poisonous dragon already higher than mine?"
A series of doubts emerged in his mind.
It made Xiao Yifei distressed.
He had a vague premonition.
If the truth cannot be found out.
He might encounter a more tragic crisis in the future.
"No!"
"Since we are here, how can we return empty-handed?"
"Even if we fight to the death, we must find out the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes!"
Finally, Xiao Yifei gritted his teeth and made a decision.
And then, he began to search around the cave.
He wanted to find some clues.
He didn't ask to solve the case immediately.
But at least he could figure out where he was and where he was exactly.
"Hmm?"
"There seems to be something in here!"
Soon, Xiao Yifei found something unusual in the middle of a pile of rubble.
He quickly stepped forward and squatted down to check.
As a result, he found an ancient jade pendant at the bottom of the rubble.
And this jade pendant is exactly the same as the one that Du Long wore on his neck before.
It is obviously a magic weapon.
"Why is there a magic weapon here?"
Xiao Yifei was surprised.
This is an extremely precious thing in the cultivation world.
Each magic weapon represents a profound technique and martial arts.
It has great value.
But now, he has witnessed the birth of a magic weapon with his own eyes.
This is incredible.
"Huh?"
"Could it be that there is a secret hidden under these rubbles?"
Xiao Yifei's heart moved slightly.
Immediately, both arms were raised.
Boom!
A stream of spiritual energy gushed out.
In an instant, the whole pile of rubble was overturned to the ground.
Then the situation below was revealed.
As expected, Xiao Yifei was shocked.
It turned out that there was something else buried under the pile of rubble.
A closer look revealed that it was dozens of dilapidated secret books.
"It turned out to be skills and martial arts!"
Xiao Yifei was immediately delighted.
He quickly collected these skills and martial arts.
But after he picked up all the secret books, his face became more and more strange.
Because most of these secret books were completely destroyed.
Only a few of them still retained most of the content.
And they were all very low-level skills and martial arts.
They were not worthy of his attention at all.
He chose two high-level skills from them.
One of them was called "Yufeng Jue".
The quality reached the middle level of Xuan grade.
The other one was called "Jiu Tian Jian Jue".
The quality was also at the initial level of Xuan grade.
Although the power was not too strong.
But it is of good quality.
You can barely practice it.
And, most importantly, these two books are all martial arts for male warriors.
For female warriors, it is basically useless.
"I don't know if Yun Yan'er will agree if I give this set of martial arts to her?"
Xiao Yifei thought to himself.
Yun Yan'er is an elite inner disciple of Bingyue Sect.
Her status in Bingyue Sect is not low.
If I give this set of Xuan-level mid-level martial arts to Yun Yan'er, she will definitely not refuse.
However...
If I do this, there will be a connection between me and Yun Yan'er.
With Yun Yan'er's cold personality, she will probably list me as an enemy.
It's not worth it to do this!
After all, they are just casual acquaintances.
They are not even friends.
Just based on this casual encounter, I have to give others something.
Or give it to a woman, is it really appropriate to do this?
Xiao Yifei feels that there is no need for him to do such a thing.
Unless he really deserves a beating.
Otherwise, he will never be cheap!
Of course!
If this set of martial arts is really the treasure that Yun Yan'er dreams of and urgently needs.
Xiao Yifei may also consider using it to exchange for some benefits and solve this bad relationship.
But the problem is...
This set of martial arts is completely useless to Yun Yan'er.
Moreover, it was worthless.
In this case, why waste such a good thing?
Besides, Xiao Yifei was not short of money.
He didn't care about a low-level technique.
So, he didn't plan to sell this set of techniques for money.
In the end, Xiao Yifei shook his head and sighed, giving up the idea of giving the techniques to Yun Yan'er.
At the same time, he put his attention back on the jade pendant in front of him.
He stretched out his fingers and carefully dug the jade pendant out of the ground.
This jade pendant was slightly larger than the previous one, and the color was slightly yellowish.
However, it was carved very carefully.
At first glance, it seemed like an exquisite work of art.
It was only because of its age that it had long been decayed and had lost its former glory.
Xiao Yifei carefully observed the jade pendant and released the perspective pupil technique to observe it.
What a pity.
Through the perspective pupil technique, he did not find anything special.
Instead, he felt a little boring.
So, he shifted his target to the other side.
I saw that there were all kinds of weapons scattered in the ruins.
There were even cold weapons such as swords, guns, sticks and clubs.
And the power of these cold weapons was not weak.
Obviously they had been used before.
Xiao Yifei picked up one of the short blades.
He held it in his palm.
Infused his luck.
Swish!
The sharp short blade instantly burst into a dazzling cold light.
Like a poisonous snake, it pounced on him and bit him.
Xiao Yifei curled his lips and smiled: "This is a bit useful!"
"However, this short blade looks sharp, but in fact, it is as fragile as tofu dregs."
"I'm afraid even an ordinary person can smash it with a light wave."
"It seems that if I want to increase the power of this short blade, I can only rely on myself."
Xiao Yifei thought about it and threw the short blade in his hand back to the ruins.
Then he walked to the shelf on the side.
The remaining weapons were all collected.
Among these weapons, the most common one was a spear.
There were also three daggers.
They were all mid-level Xuan-grade weapons.
These weapons were worth about 40 million in total.
Although compared with the 100 million on Yun Yan'er, it was a drop in the bucket.
But a mosquito's leg is still meat no matter how small it is.
Moreover, this 40 million wealth can be exchanged for spirit coins.
In this way, it can still support for a period of time.
The most important thing is that although these weapons are not very precious.
But if they are sold for money, they can also be sold at a considerable price.
Even if they can't sell for so much money, there is no problem in making 1.8 million.
Moreover, these mid-level Xuan-grade weapons can also be used to pay off debts.
Just think of it as an advance payment of an IOU.
After thinking about these things clearly, Xiao Yifei began to think about what to do next.
Now that this relic has been exposed.
Then, it is definitely impossible to stay here any longer.
And according to normal circumstances, if you want to leave this relic, you must cross this mountain range.
To cross this mountain range, one must go deep into the forest.
In that case, the danger will increase a lot.
And there is also the worry of encountering monster attacks.
Therefore, Xiao Yifei's only choice now is to retreat outside this relic and avoid the limelight for the time being.
As for waiting for the arrival of reinforcements...
Hehe!
Don't be funny!
There are no reinforcements!
He is alone now.
It is extremely difficult to leave here and return to Yunzhou.
And even if you can escape by luck.
It is simply a foolish dream to reach Yunzhou safely.
Therefore, the safest way is to stay in this relic.
Wait until the mysterious old man leads everyone to find this place, and then take the opportunity to leave.
This method is risky, but there is also a chance.
Who said that the mysterious old man is the master of the top master in the entire Yunling Mountains.
If his strength is really strong enough.
It is not completely hopeless to find his trace.
Xiao Yifei sorted out his thoughts in his mind and finally determined the choice he should make now.
He immediately started to get busy.
He first spent several days to thoroughly explore the ruins.
The result was surprising.
This ruins is vast.
It occupies a large amount of flat terrain.
The complex of buildings is complex.
And they are all built very neatly and solidly.
It looks like a specially built city.
Xiao Yifei even saw a row of huge alchemy furnaces in a certain house.
Each alchemy furnace is about five meters high.
The width is over one meter.
The body is huge and full of shock and impact.
It looks quite classically beautiful.
Unfortunately, these alchemy furnaces were all seriously damaged.
It cannot be used anymore.
Xiao Yifei just glanced around briefly.
I was secretly glad in my heart.
"Fortunately, I didn't step into this ruins rashly, otherwise..."
"Huh? No! Why is even the alchemy furnace completely destroyed here? Could it be that someone got there first?"
"Or...is this place already empty?"
"But...it's not possible, right?"
Xiao Yifei frowned and thought.
suddenly.
His eyes suddenly brightened.
He suddenly raised his feet and walked out of the door.
Walk quickly in a certain direction.
Before he had gone far, he found a few words on the wall of a wooden attic.
It says - "Trespassing to the Yun Family Treasure Room is prohibited!"
"Hahahahaha!"
Xiao Yifei couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.
A look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
"I knew it!"
"This is definitely not a place where ordinary people live!"
"In this case, how could the expert hiding here waste an alchemy room at will?"
"It seems that this treasure house of the Yun family is the real habitat of that senior."
"And the alchemy room just now was just a cover-up!"
"If my guess is correct, that senior must have placed those alchemy materials in this Yun family treasure house."
"It's just that for various reasons, the Yun family's treasure house was emptied out."
"So, this treasure house became the abandoned ruins it is today."
"And there must be many treasures in the Yun family's treasure house."
"If I can find these things, maybe I can solve the dilemma I'm facing!"
The thought of this.
Xiao Yifei was immediately overjoyed.
Without hesitation, he immediately prepared to enter the treasure house to hunt for treasure.
Even if all the treasures inside were turned into scrap metal, he would not dislike it.
After all, this is a treasure that a master-level alchemist has worked hard to collect.
Never allow anyone to trample on it!
"Boom!"
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came into his ears.
Xiao Yifei couldn't help but frown slightly.
He turned and looked in the direction of the sound.
As a result, they saw python-like vines emerging from the ground and rushing towards nearby houses crazily.
One house after another was destroyed in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of houses were destroyed and reduced to nothing.
"hiss!"
Xiao Yifei's pupils shrank sharply and he took a deep breath.
This scene startled him.
Unexpectedly, this ferocious beast in the jungle has such terrifying lethality.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes.
He couldn't believe this scene even to death.
And he didn't understand even more.
How on earth could so many such terrifying beasts be born in this jungle?
And why do they attack other people for no reason?
Just when Xiao Yifei felt doubtful and puzzled, an idea suddenly flashed through him and he thought of something.
He hurriedly released his mental power and spread it around.
