#229 - You fell in love with me at first sight, didn't you? - Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo walked into the cave together.

Like Xu Xuenuo, who was entering the cave for the first time, Xu Ming was amazed by the density of spiritual energy within.

This book is first published on the entire network by 𝕥 𝕨 𝕜 𝕒 𝕟 . 𝕔 𝕠 𝕞

It was also the first time Xu Ming had seen such a sight.

The spiritual energy was so dense that it had turned into a thick fog.

If this was formed naturally, how many people would dream of this blessed land?

If this was man-made, how many treasures of heaven and earth would have been spent on this place?

Even if there were no treasures in this cave, the cave itself was a treasure. If one could cultivate here for a year or two, it would definitely be twice as effective.

The further the two went into the cave, the more vigilant they became.

Because whether it was natural or man-made, places with such dense spiritual energy were very likely to give birth to some kind of natural treasure.

And natural treasures were often guarded by companion demonic beasts. The more precious the natural treasure, the more powerful the demonic beast.

Sure enough, Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo found several Qilin Flowers in the cave.

The Qilin Flower belonged to the second-grade spiritual flower and was guarded by a two-headed bloodscale snake.

Although the two-headed bloodscale snake looked quite fierce, and was four meters long, as thick as two strong men, ordinary Sea Gazing Realm cultivators and even Dragon Gate Realm cultivators could die in its hands.

However, Xu Ming believed that it would not be too difficult to kill this two-headed bloodscale snake.

Not to mention that he also had a very powerful sword cultivator by his side.

However, Xu Ming didn't want to disturb the other party.

Who knew if killing the small one would bring a big one, or if it would trigger some mechanism.

What he didn't expect was that before Xu Ming could stop her, Xu Xuenuo directly chopped the snake.

The snake didn't even react. It just watched the hairless bipedal ape in front of it take a step forward, then draw out its long sword. Then, the body of the hairless bipedal ape became somewhat illusory. Then, the snake felt a dizzy spell, its head fell off, and it completely lost its breath.

Xu Xuenuo took the snake gall and threw it to Xu Ming: "This is for you, it should be very effective for you martial artists."

Xu Ming caught the snake gall: "It does have some effect, but why are you giving it to me?"

Xu Xuenuo: "Aren't you a martial artist?"

Xu Ming: "I am indeed a martial artist, but…"

Xu Ming hesitated.

I am a martial artist, that's right.

But the problem is, I have nothing to do with you. You chopped the snake without saying a word, and it was for me. This makes me feel a little complicated.

Could it be that you fell in love with me at first sight?

But it doesn't seem like it...

Looking at Xu Ming's expression, Xu Xuenuo gradually realized that her actions seemed to be a bit problematic.

Xu Xuenuo's cheeks flushed slightly, but fortunately, the cave was too dark and it was not easy to see clearly: "I just wanted to return a favor. You saved me from the hands of that demonic beast. I don't like others owing me, but I definitely don't like owing others."

"Is that so." Xu Ming smiled, "If that's the case, then I'll accept it. But you don't have to be so polite anymore. Killing that demonic beast, we were actually helping each other. I not only helped you, but also helped myself."

"That's what you think, it's none of my business. I have my own standards of conduct." Xu Xuenuo turned around and picked the Qilin Flowers.

Then Xu Xuenuo very fairly divided them in half.

Continuing forward, Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo encountered many more spiritual flowers and herbs.

The grades of these spiritual flowers and herbs were all good. Although the demonic beasts guarding them were strong, under the combined efforts of Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo, these demonic beasts were completely outmatched.

However, there were indeed some man-made magic arrays and traps in this cave.

But they were all exposed by the stone in Xu Ming's hand.

Xu Ming didn't know what this stone was made of, but he had to say that it was indeed a good thing.

"How long have we been walking?"

Xu Xuenuo asked Xu Ming beside her.

Xu Ming thought for a moment: "It's been about half an hour."

Xu Xuenuo frowned: "Is this cave so deep?"

She and Xu Ming were walking very fast, but they had walked for a full half an hour and had not reached the bottom of the cave.

Xu Ming touched his chin and replied: "I wonder if you feel that we seem to have been walking downwards."

Listening to Xu Ming's words, Xu Xuenuo turned around and delivered a sword strike towards the back.

The sword energy quickly hit the wall.

The road that Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo came from was straight, without even a blocking stone. In theory, the speed of the sword energy hitting the wall should not be so fast.

That is to say, this cave was indeed "sloping".

And Xu Xuenuo's sword energy hit the slope.

"Is this cave a passage?" Xu Xuenuo immediately understood.

"That's right, it should be." Xu Ming nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, we are heading towards the center of this mountain."

Xu Xuenuo: "."

"It's useless to think too much, let's continue walking forward." After Xu Xuenuo was silent for a while, she walked forward again.

Since this girl was so brave, Xu Ming would naturally not back down.

The two walked for about another half an hour and came to a place where the surroundings were all blue.

There was no road ahead, it was a dead end.

"No road? That's not right…"

Xu Xuenuo drew out her natal flying sword and looked around.

The natal flying sword kept expressing a meaning: "Keep going forward."
