Chapter 104 Exploration

Li Tongya drove the wind and Xu Yangping and his wife out of Fangshi and headed south, flying for several hours.

He is not afraid of sneak attacks and sieges by this casual cultivator. After all, the casual cultivators are practicing first-level skills, and they swallow all the miscellaneous energy. Just like Shan Yue's Qi training, three or five people can't surround him, not to mention Jiang He's true energy is strong and powerful. Quick, go take a look and discuss the situation.

I carefully chatted with these two people about the details on the way, and then I discovered that the cave was on the south bank of Wangyue Lake, only more than 200 miles away from Lichuankou of my Li family.

"Opportunities in the world are really unpredictable. My Li family has been farming intensively on the south bank for decades and has never discovered this cave. Xu Yangping and his wife just rested on this small islet in the lake. However, they encountered a severe drought and found this cave. Cheap."

After thinking about it for a few moments, Li Tongya saw the jagged rocks on the small islet in front of him. Among them sat a man with an average appearance, a long knife on his lap, meditating quietly.

"Brother Zhang!"

Xu Yangping landed on the ground, smiled and clasped his fists, shouted, turned around and introduced to Li Tongya:

"This is Brother Zhang Yun. He is at the third level of qi training and has a good knowledge of battle tactics. He happened to come to Wangyue Hufang City a few days ago and is willing to help me."

Zhang Yun quickly stood up and held up his hands, staring at the Jiang He Yuan on Li Tongya's body in silence for a while, and Xu Yangping also introduced him.

Li Tongya returned the gift with his hand raised. Seeing that this man's true energy was clear when he finished his work, and he claimed to have a lot of research on the battle method, he secretly sized it up and said:

"I'm afraid this person is not a casual cultivator, and there is no family named Zhang in this world. If this person hadn't given a false name, there is a high probability that he has something to do with the three sects and seven sects!"

Not to mention that Li Tongya was secretly vigilant on the side, Zhang Yun was very humble, but he could not hide the excitement on his face. He pointed to the water next to the small island and explained:

"While you were waiting to leave, I studied this cave for a while. It should be the cave of the foundation-building monks. It is at least two or three hundred years old!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yangping's eyes widened and he was so excited that he said continuously:

"This is rare!"

Zhang Yun nodded and explained

"I heard that in ancient times, Wangyue Lake was originally called Da Yueze, and the mountains and lakes stretching for thousands of miles were filled with aura. It was the place where Yuehua Yuan Mansion was located, and there were many caves. Later, the landform changed and gradually dried up, leaving only Wangyue Lake today. Lake.”

Lin Jingyi could no longer hold back and asked quickly:

"Brother Zhang, is there any way to get in?"

"Of course there is."

Zhang Yun nodded, and several people jumped into the water. They stopped at a break in the river bed. He raised the long knife in his hand and slashed with his hand. Many patterns and prints suddenly appeared on the stone wall in front of him. A dazzling white light magic circle appeared in front of him.

Zhang Yun quickly formed a seal, and shot out three long and thin jade wedges from his hand, which were nailed into the formation. He held it with his backhand and pulled out three long and thin pale white chains, each with a jade wedge attached to it. Exuding light.

"Two fellow Taoists follow."

Zhang Yun threw out the two chains, and Li Tongya and the others activated their magic power to pour it into the jade wedge.

"This man really has two skills."

Li Tongya opened his eyes and poured mana into his hands. He became more and more certain in his heart that this person had an unusual background. He might have come prepared. He began to look at the surrounding environment and think about an escape route.

Li Tongya was vigilant and stingy with his magic power. Several people used their magic power to grind for a whole day. Finally, when it was dark, they saw that the silver light magic circle began to flicker and flicker. They worked slowly all night again and heard a crisp sound. The array suddenly shattered.

A dark cave entrance appeared in front of them, and a large amount of lake water immediately poured in. Fortunately, several people had been prepared, and several water-avoiding techniques were hit at the entrance of the cave, blocking the lake water.

The four of them looked at the dark entrance of the cave and stopped in unison. You looked at me and I looked at you, and they all saw the hesitation in each other's eyes.

"Three of you... let me go first!"

Zhang Yun chuckled, slapped the storage bag, and pulled out a light yellow wooden shield. Xu Yangping behind him glanced at the magic weapon in his hand, followed Li Tongya silently with a solemn expression.

After walking a few steps, a foul stench hit their faces, making the couple want to vomit and quickly stopped. However, Li Tongya on the side had already held his breath before entering the cave and was completely unaware of it.

Li Tongya glanced down at Xu Yangping. Both of them saw a look of vigilance in each other's eyes. Their true energy was surging, and they were ready to take action at any time.

"Xu Yangping probably doesn't know Zhang Yun's background. If they were all making a show to deceive me, he wouldn't bring Lin Jingyi along with him and give him a hand for nothing. Now he also knows that something is wrong and is secretly on guard."

Just when I was thinking like this, Xu Yangping's spiritual voice was already ringing in my ears, and I saw his slightly uneasy voice saying:

"Brother Li, I'm afraid this person is not as simple as a casual cultivator. If I take the wrong look, I will probably suffer a loss."

Zhang Yun, who was in front, had a calm look. He looked around the cave, the spell in his hand glowed brightly, and he could see everything.

I saw that the cave was quite wide. In the center was a huge columnar crystal several feet high, with a huge snake-shaped skeleton coiled on it. The thick white bones and interlaced long teeth were quite strange, and only the skeleton's big mouth was still open. A blood-red ball was suspended.

The ball floated gently, with a little bit of crystal blood. It looked round and translucent, quite beautiful. There was still a snow-white spear stuck on the ground, shining with silver light.

The spiritual energy in the cave is quite strong, comparable to that of the Meichi Mountain Cave. However, the entire cave is originally a large and dense cave, covering more than ten acres of land. There is no end in sight from the entrance of the cave, and the gloomy energy is overwhelming.

"Oh, it turns out to be the cave of a demon general!"

Zhang Yun kicked the rotten bones on the ground, turned around to look at Li Tongya and the others, and said with some disappointment.

"I thought it was some foundation-building monk who wanted to build the cave in the water, but it turned out to be a snake demon!"

Xu Yangping and others also had disappointed looks on their faces. The foundation-building monster had already transformed and could learn some formations and alchemy techniques. However, the monster still liked to swallow spiritual objects in one bite and digest them slowly, and did not like to leave any inheritance. , naturally there is a lot less gain.

"There are many snakes and grandsons in this cave, all of which have been sucked dry by this guy and become the material for cultivating Taoism."

After passing through the densely packed snake bones, a few people walked around the cave. They were filled with bones and fly ash, both human and animal. All the storage bags on the bones were missing.

"Huh."

Zhang Yun swept his spiritual sense and found two jade slips from the dust. He read them in front of the two people, put them on the ground in disappointment, turned around and said:

"What a poor monster. He probably exchanged all his belongings for magical elixirs, and tried his best to break through the Zi Mansion. These two jade slips were sealed with secret seals, but they couldn't be sold, so they had to stay here to eat ashes. "

Then he laughed loudly and continued:

"How can it be so easy to break through in Zifu!"

"I don't know..."

Xu Yangping cupped his hands and said to Zhang Yun with respect:

"What are the spells of these two jade slips?"

Zhang Yun glanced at him and said with a smile:

"They are the "Xuemo Dharma Book" of our Jinyu Sect and the "Jianghe Daling Jing" that was lost after the Lingyu Sect was exterminated. The former requires the use of the Jinyu Sect's secret seal, and the latter also requires the use of secret methods. You guys Couples don’t have to think about it.”

Xu Yangping and his wife immediately looked at each other. Li Tongya on the side had already stepped back a few steps. The long sword in his hand was tightly clenched, and there was a faint white light. The Yueque Sword Arc, which had been accumulated for a long time, was ready to go.

"Brother Xiao, don't be nervous."

Zhang Yun smiled at Li Tongya, looked at the long sword in his hand that was already buzzing before it was unsheathed, and continued:

""Jianghe Yiqi Jue", I still recognize the Xiao family's technique. My father personally sent it to the Xiao family back then."

Li Tongya was stunned for a moment, and a hint of shock appeared on his face in time. Without thinking, he asked questions to cover up, and frowned:

"Brother Zhang made a special trip to take back the "Xuemo Dharma Book" this time?"

"No..."

Zhang Yun showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and explained:

"I was ordered by my master to go out to find a cave. I didn't know that this was Brother Xiao who was looking for the "Jianghe Daling Sutra", so I accidentally broke in."

Li Tongya was even more stunned when he heard this. He quickly took over the words, his mind was running like lightning, his face was slightly hesitant, and he whispered:

"I have been searching for more than ten years before I found the location of this cave. I didn't expect that these two people discovered it in advance. After meeting Brother Zhang, I thought that Guizong was also interested in this thing."

"What the hell! With the relationship between our two families, how could the Jin Yu Sect come to covet the "Jiang He Daling Sutra"."

Zhang Yun waved his hands repeatedly, and Xu Yangping and his wife on the side were even more stunned. They felt the two forces fighting, sweating profusely, and felt that they had accidentally fallen into the confrontation between these two forces. They wanted to run away.

"Damn it, this Li Tongya is also a disciple of the sect. Now my husband and I have become lambs to be slaughtered!"

The two of them took a few steps back silently, ready to escape quickly, but Zhang Yun was alarmed and saw him turning his head and staring at the two of them with a smile.

"I'll solve Brother Xiao's trouble first!"

Zhang Yun chuckled and slashed at Xu Yangping with his sword. Xu Yangping's hair stood on end and he backed away while hugging Lin Jingyi.

But what Zhang Yun practiced was at least the third-level Zhengfa, and what he swallowed was the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Xu Yangping had just broken through the spiritual energy, and the exercises he practiced were ordinary, and there was no decent Qi-gathering technique. He swallowed hastily refined miscellaneous energy. Where is it? Zhang Yun's opponent.

Just like how Li Tongya easily killed the Ji family Qi practitioner back then, Zhang Yun cut off his head with just a dozen blows. Regardless of Lin Jingyi's repeated pleas for mercy, he killed him without hesitation, turned his head and smiled at Li Tongya:

"These casual cultivators are really useless."

Li Tongya's face was calm, but his spine felt secretly cold. He watched Zhang Yun silently pick up the two people's storage bags, and deeply realized the dominance of the three sects and seven sects in the world of immortality, and thought to himself:

"If there was no righteous Dharma brought by Jing'er in the sect at home, I'm afraid I would have been slaughtered like these two cultivators, like a shepherd's purse."

But Zhang Yun smiled and said:

"That's how the skills are divided. As for the inner elixir and magic weapon, who should I choose first?"

After saying this, he raised his eyebrows, and before Li Tongya could reply, he said excitedly:

"How about you and I each use our swords and swords, and whoever wins gets to choose first!"

Li Tongya had just seen Zhang Yun take action against Xu Yangping, and his skills were not necessarily much higher than his own "Xuanshui Sword Art" and "Jianghe Yiqi Art", and he had the extremely explosive Yueque Sword Arc as a base, so he thought to himself:

"You must not give in at this moment."

Then he slowly raised the long sword with a scabbard at his waist, strong white light burst out from the gap in the scabbard, and he laughed loudly:

"good!"

After saying that, he drew his sword and stood up. The moon-white sword arc whizzed out, causing Zhang Yun to scream strangely:

"You're cheating!"

The sword energy in his hand had been secretly accumulated for a long time, and it rose up fiercely. The sword energy and the sword energy intersected with each other, making the two people's clothes rattle with a loud noise.

Li Tongya staggered a step to resolve the force, but Zhang Yun took a hard blow without wavering. He grunted, obviously suffering a small internal injury, but said with a smile on his face:

"You backed away!"

"Take the techniques away. I want this foundation-building peak demon beast inner elixir. I will leave this foundation-building level magic weapon to your family."

Li Tongya didn't want to be entangled anymore, so he nodded and said solemnly:

"But, as long as Xiao can obtain this technique, he will have fulfilled his elders' instructions."

The two of them each collected their things. Zhang Yun and Li Tongya left the cave one after another, laughing in a low voice:

"Your sword skills are good!"

Li Tongya was just about to be humble, but saw Zhang Yun speak quickly and urgently:

"The Jin Yu Sect's promise to Master Chu Ting still remains. As long as old ghost Chi Wei dies, the Jin Yu Sect will be behind the Xiao family. Please give your nobles some consideration."

Li Tongya was immediately horrified, and his mind was filled with shock.

"Zhenren Chuting?! Xiao Chuting has become the Zifu?! No wonder the Jinyu Sect is so polite to the Xiao family."

"Promise? I'm afraid that the strength of the Qingchi Sect's Chi Wei ancestor will be greatly reduced after his death. What are the plans of the Xiao family and the Jin Yu Sect..."

Zhang Yun blinked narrowly and continued softly:

"It doesn't matter even if you are not from the Xiao family. There are several foundations in the family that are all prepared. Sooner or later there will be turmoil."

Li Tongya shook his head and smiled:

"Brother Zhang is joking."

Zhang Yun laughed, patted the kit, and drove away on the shuttle.

The remaining Li Tongya thought about it for a few seconds, fearing that Zhang Yun was still around, so he simply started practicing cross-legged until night fell again, holding the Qi Condensing Technique and flying towards Lixia County for a while, and then detoured back to Li's house.

Li Tongya flew over Lijing Mountain and saw a piece of plain clothes under his feet. His heart suddenly skipped a beat. He knew something had happened, so he went down the mountain in the wind. He saw a piece of white cloth fluttering in the courtyard. Li Xuanxuan also wore sackcloth and wore mourning, and said in a solemn voice:

"What happened?"

Li Xuanxuan shivered unexpectedly. When he saw Li Tongya hesitantly kneeling down, he took off the green black bow from his waist and handed it over, choking and saying:

"Chen Donghe and the others came back a few days ago, saying that my uncle... was cursed to death..."

Li Tongya was stunned for a breath, and the mood in his heart that he had obtained the magic formula and magic weapon suddenly disappeared. Some premonitions and signs came true, and he called out in a low voice:

"I see."

Turning their heads away, the two of them stood on the top of the mountain in silence for a long time, then saw Li Tongya speak:

"Take some common clothes and bury them in the cemetery at home, together with your eldest father and father."

Seeing Li Xuanxuan nodding, Li Tongya wiped the corners of his eyes and whispered:

"Remember to come in order and leave a place for me in the middle."

"yes."

It’s still two chapters in one^
