Chapter 81: Shadows in the Forest
Liu Xiaolu looked curiously at the rhombus crystal in his hand.
The small crystal is about three inches long and only about an inch wide, barely enough to fit in your hand. The entire crystal emits a faint cyan fluorescence, and its texture is a bit like fine agate jade, but somewhat different.
Is this the legendary spiritual stone that contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth?
Liu Xiaolu used her spiritual power to explore into the crystal. A cool and familiar breath instantly enveloped her consciousness attached to her spiritual power, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction and relief in her heart.
No longer thinking about it, Liu Xiaolu closed her eyes and activated the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone to start the Mu Yuan Gong again. A stream of pure spiritual energy continuously poured out from the spiritual stone, circulated along her meridians, and finally turned into
Silks of spiritual power flowed into Dantian.
An hour later, Liu Xiaolu stopped the exercise and opened her eyes again, and looked at the spirit stone in her hand again. She saw that the fluorescent light on the spirit stone was much weaker at this time, and it was no longer the same as the one that the master had just handed over to her.
So full of energy.
Liu Xiaolu's Dantian, which originally took four or five hours of practice to gradually regain full spiritual power, was already full of spiritual power at this moment.
The speed of directly refining the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone and converting it into spiritual power is actually several times faster than absorbing the spiritual energy that escapes between heaven and earth.
Liu Xiaolu was overjoyed and realized more and more how magical and precious the spirit stones were, so he carefully put the used spirit stones into his arms.
Looking up at the dark sky, there are a few stars hanging in the sky that are not very clear.
It has already passed the Chou hour, and it will be daybreak in just over an hour.
Liu Xiaolu turned around and looked at the disciples sleeping on the ground around him. After a day of hard work, all the disciples were exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
Thinking that they would be on the road to escape again soon, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but sigh softly.
Hu Yizhi was still sitting cross-legged under a tree not far away. There was a faint fluctuation of spiritual power coming from his body. It seemed that he was still working hard to run his skills and try to restore his spiritual power as soon as possible.
Seeing this scene, Liu Xiaolu subconsciously looked at her master's hands, only to see that Hu Yizhi's hands were empty, and she did not hold the wonderful spiritual stone that had just been handed over to her.
Liu Xiaolu was startled for a moment, but then he quickly thought of something. His eyes turned red, and a warm current surged deep in his heart.
With a complicated mood, he turned his eyes and looked to the other side, only to see Mo Xiaoyuan and Wang Xiaobao next to each other, both of them taking a nap against the trunk of the same big tree.
Wang Xiaobao's eyes were closed tightly, his face was still a little pale, and his brows were slightly frowned, as if he was still immersed in the tragic scene in the sect last night with lingering fear.
Mo Xiaoyuan's head was tilted on Wang Xiaobao's shoulder. He didn't know what kind of delicacies he was dreaming about. He smacked his lips from time to time, with a trace of saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing the little fat man looking like this, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but chuckle, and even his original heavy mood was diluted a bit.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound that sounded like a dream.
"No, no, grandpa! Don't go!..."
Since practicing Mu Yuan Gong, Liu Xiaolu's five senses have become increasingly sharp, and even the tinny whispering sound is extremely clear to her ears.
Liu Xiaolu frowned and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a handsome young man in Tsing Yi huddled up tremblingly. His originally handsome facial features were twisted in pain, and his voice was hoarse from time to time.
He spat out a few broken words.
The loved one who was finally found and lost suddenly passed away in front of him. With this separation between yin and yang, Luo Lin must have felt extremely painful in his heart.
Liu Xiaolu still couldn't understand the pain of losing a loved one, so she didn't know how to comfort Luo Lin. But I think it was many, many times sadder than when she saw her elders die and never had the chance to see Senior Sister Sun again.
.
Looking away with some pity, Liu Xiaolu glanced at the other disciples in the field.
After looking around, Liu Xiaolu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly glanced back and forth several times before confirming that there was really a familiar figure missing among the sleeping disciples.
Senior Brother Feiyun is not here, where has he gone?
Liu Xiaolu raised his eyebrows and looked into the surrounding woods.
The shadows of trees were everywhere as far as the eye could see, and the low chirping of spring insects could be heard in the forest, but no one could be seen.
It was mid-February, when the spring was cold and the wind was blowing. Liu Xiaolu shrank his neck and immediately gave up the idea of getting up and going to the woods to search for something.
Senior Brother Feiyun might have gotten up at night to take a nap.
Randomly giving a reason for Senior Brother Feiyun's disappearance, Liu Xiaolu lowered his head and gathered up his outer shirt, trying to block as much of the cold wind as possible with the not-so-thick cloth on his body, then closed his eyes and continued practicing.
Wood edge skill.
Somehow, even though he did not use the spiritual energy in the spirit stone this time, Liu Xiaolu still felt that his cultivation speed at this moment seemed to be slightly faster than when he was usually in the room.
Is it because I practice wood-attribute skills and there are many trees in the forest, so the wood-attribute spiritual energy is more abundant than in the room?
Liu Xiaolu was just thinking about it when he suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from behind him, like the sound of something running over the branches and leaves in the forest very quickly.
After last night's battle, Liu Xiaolu's vigilance has become much stronger than before, and his perception of incoming dangerous auras has become much more acute.
So she hurriedly turned around and looked back, only to see a black shadow flashing in the distance, coming towards where she was.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and immediately used her spiritual eye skills to look in the direction of the black shadow.
Liu Xiaolu's eyes were covered with a green aura. The spiritual eye technique allows the immortal cultivator to temporarily have the inner power to see in the dark. To her, the scene in the dark forest was no different from that in the daytime.
After looking at the appearance of the black shadow, Liu Xiaolu felt relieved. He was about to withdraw the spell, but suddenly he spotted two figures closely linked one behind the other behind the black shadow.
Under the spiritual eye technique, the two men's skills were exposed to Liu Xiaolu without reservation, and the pursuers turned out to be two innate masters!
"The people from Kuangfeng Village are chasing us!"
Liu Xiaolu was so anxious that he immediately exclaimed.
Hearing Liu Xiaolu's cry, Hu Yizhi, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating under the tree, was the first to open his eyes and looked up at the panicked girl.
Without waiting for him to ask questions, Liu Xiaolu pointed in the direction of the flashing black shadow.
Hu Yizhi looked in the direction of Liu Xiaolu's finger. This time he didn't need to use his spiritual eyesight to see Feiyun running away at full speed.
The other disciples also woke up from their sleep, stood up from the ground one after another, and drew their weapons.
Feiyun used his full strength to perform Spiritual Fox Step at a very fast speed. As he approached rapidly, the flickering black shadow gradually changed from the size of a mung bean to the size of a goose egg.
But for some unknown reason, when the black shadow was less than a mile away from the Kongwu faction, its running direction suddenly changed and it flew towards the west side of the crowd.
"Luo Lin Xiaolu, you two take all the disciples to the east immediately!"
Hu Yizhi stared closely at the black shadow formed by Brother Feiyun, shouted in his mouth, jumped up, raised his sword and rushed towards the direction of the flickering figure.
Luo Lin heard the noise and had already stood up with his sword in hand. He looked at Liu Xiaolu, but neither of them wanted to leave just now.
Liu Xiaolu glanced at the crowd, casually grabbed a disciple from the seventh level of Houtian, and told him to lead the disciples to go first, and then he rushed towards the direction where Hu Yizhi had left.
