Chapter 1242 The deepest part of the bottomless pit

The flames illuminated Qin Yan's surroundings like daylight.

Qin Yan squinted his eyes and looked around. There was nothing around him, only huge rocks that he knocked off the cave wall.

"Xiao Mei?" Qin Yan shouted loudly.

No one answered Qin Yan's words. Qin Yan's voice formed an echo in the bottomless pit, echoing in Qin Yan's ears over and over again.

"Xiao Mei?" Qin Yan shouted again, but still no one answered.

Qin Yan took out the compass, chanted a spell and pointed at the compass. The pointer turned around and then pointed in one of the directions.

But when Qin Yan was about to walk in this direction, the pointer pointed in another direction with a "swish" sound.

Um? What's happening here? Qin Yan frowned.

Immediately afterwards, the pointer made another "swish" sound and pointed in another direction.

The pointer pointed in different directions three times in a row, which gave Qin Yan a headache.

He had never been in this situation before.

What exactly happened here? Is it possible that Hu Xiaomei and the others cannot be found accurately here? Qin Yan thought to himself.

But at this moment, the pointer actually turned for the fourth time and pointed in a different direction than the previous three times.

It seems that the only way to do it is to use that ancient secret technique, but I don’t know if it’s feasible.

Qin Yan had learned an ancient secret technique before, but he had never used it because this secret technique consumed too much soul power and the scope of use was very small.

"Heaven and Earth ask, yin and yang borrow the law, cause and effect reincarnate, the red thread leads the way! Go!" Qin Yan recited a spell and pointed casually into the distance.

A red thread emerged from the sole of Qin Yan's foot, and then snaked forward like a snake.

This red line is called the cause and effect line, which is unique to Qin Yan and Hu Xiaomei.

As long as Hu Xiaomei is within a five-mile radius of Qin Yan, Qin Yan can find Hu Xiaomei based on this causal line.

Qin Yan followed the line of cause and effect and moved forward slowly, bypassing many huge rocks.

After a while, the causal thread led Qin Yan to a cave wall. The causal thread followed a small hole in the cave wall like a snake.

Afraid of disturbing the situation, Qin Yan did not use Taoism to bombard the cave wall, but instead used his soul power to stretch out his hands, grab the cracks in the cave wall and pull them open to both sides.

Stones of different sizes were immediately removed by Qin Yan, forming a cave for one person to walk together.

Qin Yan walked along the cave and silently followed the line of cause and effect.

A few minutes later, when Qin Yan removed one of the stones, a large space was immediately revealed.

This place is like a paradise, with not only pavilions and pavilions, but also gardens and rockeries. It looks like a manor on earth.

But the atmosphere here is much more elegant than a human manor.

After the causal line came here, it did not stop, but slowly crawled towards a lake.

Qin Yan immediately followed him calmly.

Arriving at the bottom of the lake, the causal thread penetrated a gate set at the bottom of the lake.

Qin Yan did not expect that the gate was actually opened on the bottom of the lake. In this case, the lake water would definitely pour into the gate due to gravity.

However, this door seemed to be made of some special material. Not only did the lake water not pour in through the cracks in the door, but the lake water was forced by the door to float a few centimeters above the door.

Opening the door, Qin Yan quietly walked into the passage.

There was nothing inside, and the mottled marks on the walls showed its growth rings.

Qin Yan estimated that this place had existed for at least a thousand years, otherwise it would be impossible to have such an ancient atmosphere.

Continuing to walk along the passage, Qin Yan soon came to an underground palace.

The moment he entered the underground palace, Qin Yan saw a skeleton tied to the center of the underground palace. The skeleton looked like the skeleton of a fox.

There were two people lying on both sides of the skeleton. These two people were none other than Hu Xiaomei and Hu Xiaoxian.

"Xiao Mei?" Qin Yan used his secret technique to transmit the voice into Hu Xiaomei's ears.

Hu Xiaomei seemed to be in a coma and did not hear Qin Yan's voice at all.

Qin Yan squinted his eyes, recited a spell to open the Yin and Yang Ghost Eyes, and looked around the underground palace. When he was sure that there was no formation, he immediately flashed and appeared lightly beside Hu Xiaomei.

"Xiaomei! Are you okay?" Qin Yan picked up Hu Xiaomei, turned her over, and asked softly.

When Hu Xiaomei was turned over, she suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were blood red, like a man-eating beast.

"Roar!" Hu Xiaomei roared loudly, then stretched out her hands to grab Qin Yan's neck.

At the same time, Hu Xiaomei transformed her tail and wrapped it around Qin Yan's waist, trying to strangle Qin Yan's waist.

Qin Yan stretched out his left hand to grab Hu Xiaomei's hands, then stretched out his right hand, recited a spell and gently tapped on Hu Xiaomei's eyebrows.

The blood redness in Hu Xiaomei's eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Xiao Mei, are you okay?" Qin Yan asked softly.

Hu Xiaomei was as nervous as if she had just woken up from a nightmare. When she saw it was Qin Yan, she immediately hugged Qin Yan's neck and cried loudly: "Qin Yan, I thought you were dead. , By the way, I saw my dad, and she died too! He died so miserably! I..."

Just in the middle of speaking, Hu Xiaomei suddenly froze, raised her head and looked up at the tied fox skeleton.

"Xiaomei, what's wrong?" Finding that Hu Xiaomei suddenly stopped talking, Qin Yan stepped back and looked at Hu Xiaomei in surprise.

"Qin Yan, it's calling me! I can hear its voice! Its voice is so familiar!" Hu Xiaomei pointed at the fox skeleton and said excitedly, her eyes full of disbelief.

Qin Yan turned his head and looked at the fox skeleton, but he could not feel the soul power fluctuations on the fox skeleton.

This shows that the fox skeleton is dead, not alive,

"How is this possible? It is already dead, and it has not cultivated into an evil spirit!" Qin Yan thought that Hu Xiaomei was hallucinating.

"No! It's alive! It's calling me! I'm sure it's turned into an evil spirit!" Hu Xiaomei said while stepping back, looking extremely scared.

Whether it is the bones of a person after death or the bones of an animal after death, there is a certain chance that they will become evil spirits.

Just like the White Bone Demon.

The White Bone Demon is actually a woman's skeleton, which was later cultivated into an evil spirit, and is known as the White Bone Lady or the White Bone Demon.

Since Hu Xiaomei was so sure, Qin Yan also took it seriously. He activated his soul power and sensed the vitality of the fox's skeleton.

But it's a pity that no matter how Qin Yan senses it, he can't sense the breath of life on it.

"Xiaomei, I can't sense the breath of life on it. You must be mistaken!" Qin Yan thought that Hu Xiaomei was frightened, so she had hallucinations.

"Hey hey hey! Hey hey hey!" At this moment, a strange laughter suddenly sounded.
