Chapter 159 Devouring (two in one)
On top of the dark mountain, there was a dark cloud-like evil spirit, and with the outpouring of a ball of flames, a blank space appeared.
Above the blank space, there is a blue spiritual bird with wings spread, which is as big as a hundred meters.
"It's people from the Yuling Sect. They've finally arrived."
"Not only the Yuling Sect, but also some other small sects may have started exploring this underground palace during this period."
On the mountainside, Shu Jun listened to the discussion of the other four companions with a gloomy look in his eyes.
This is not because of the arrival of the Yuling Sect or the exploration of small sects or casual cultivators and immortal cultivating families.
In fact, this underground palace exuding a sinister aura is much wider than they imagined.
Even the Danxia Sect, one of the three major immortal sects in Yunzhou, cannot control the entire underground palace.
Perhaps, uniting Yuling Sect and Yunxiao Sect to gather the three major Immortal Sects can achieve this.
But in that case, this move would not only anger the entire Yunzhou immortal world, but also explore such a huge and unknown underground palace.
Once a large amount of damage occurs, even the three supreme immortal sects cannot bear it.
In this way, it would be a better arrangement for each of them to choose a direction to explore.
Therefore, Shu Jun didn't care at all whether it was the Yuling Sect's arrival or the Yunxiao Sect's arrival.
After all, they only need to be responsible for the initial stage of foundation building.
What concerned him was the information that Ji Yi's team brought back from the underground palace yesterday.
The information was clearly placed in front of them, but they were completely unaware of it, which made Lin Yi's team receive a commendation from Han Hu.
"No matter how many achievements the sect has, I don't care about it now, but while leading the team to explore the road, it will also affect the points of the Alchemy Conference.
Was it in the top thirty last time, will it be in the top five or the top three next time?
I have no idea.
But I know one thing, all the winners of the previous alchemy conferences, even if they are among the top five, will eventually be accepted as disciples by the Golden Alchemy Elder or the Lord of the Peak.
It is different from the inner disciples that Danxia Sect will automatically become once they step into Foundation Establishment, but a further true disciple."
Thinking of this, Shu Jun looked at the cave leading to the underground palace and took a deep breath subconsciously.
True disciple.
Within the Danxia Sect, all the elders or seniors at the Golden Core stage are without exception true disciples.
Although, achieving the True Inheritance does not necessarily mean that you will be able to achieve the Golden Elixir.
However, after becoming the true successor, the resources provided by the sect are definitely the highest among the disciples.
Once entering the later stage of foundation building, when it comes to pill-forming objects, the sect will do its best to help the true disciples.
"Guo Zi is really in the middle stage of foundation building. Although he currently ranks first, as long as I continue to work hard during this period, I may surpass him."
Thinking of this, Shu Jun exhaled a breath, glanced at Ji Yi not far away, and whispered.
"Let's go, Yuling Sect's strength is not comparable to that of those small sects.
If we had obtained the correct route into the depths of the underground palace before us, even the sect would not blame us.
But when we walk within the sect in the future, we will inevitably have to lower our heads and conduct ourselves as human beings.
If I can't make great achievements in the future, I'm afraid the possibility of obtaining elixir-forming spiritual objects will continue to decrease."
With that said, Shu Jun stepped into the forbidden cave in front of everyone's eyes without looking back.
"Brother Lin."
Seeing Shu Jun and his group disappear at the entrance of the cave, Li Hong subconsciously looked at Lin Yi.
None of the foundation-building disciples present were stupid. They naturally knew why Lin Yi and Shu Jun became the leaders of the team without any controversy.
Perhaps, most of the disciples didn't pay much attention to the two of them.
However, the four Li Hongs who had gone through the last round of exploration were deeply impressed by the commendations and achievements they had received from their previous explorations.
In their opinion, if they take advantage of this time to embrace Lin Yi, they will most likely become a true disciple after advancing to the next round of the alchemy conference.
As a true disciple, his status in the sect is almost the same as that of an ordinary elder.
If Lin Yi becomes a disciple of Elder Jin Dan, such as Han Wu, the status of those who have good relations with Lin Yi will naturally rise as a result.
The improvement of status will inevitably bring about a tilt in resources.
"Let's go."
Facing the gazes of Li Hong and the others, Lin Yi sighed in his heart, but said with a smile on his face.
Naturally, he could clearly see the fire in the eyes of the four people.
If he had a choice, he would really like to cultivate immortality quietly by himself, and then live forever.
But unfortunately, this cannot be done.
There is no way beyond the golden elixir to understand more of the mysteries of cultivation. Even if you have the paradise of cave heaven in hand, you can still achieve the golden elixir and condense the Nascent Soul.
"Lin doesn't want to become a ghost fairy."
Thinking like this, Lin Yi also stepped into the cave and roared towards the underground palace.
He also thought about his identity as a true disciple.
As he fell, Ji Yi looked at the dilapidated palace below. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Xiang Feiyu.
"According to the previous plan, we will continue to explore. Our mission is to obtain more information that may be hidden in the underground palace.
This will eliminate unnecessary dangers and difficulties for the entry of senior brothers in the middle and later stages of foundation building.
As long as we do this, we will have made a meritorious deed."
"yes!"
Hearing this, Li Hong and the other four, who had already received extra merit for their last exploration, all responded with smiles.
"Perhaps the practice of constantly moving forward, or even entering the depths of the underground palace, can bring more help to Lin's promotion to the Alchemy Conference.
However, this is too risky.
Anyone can explore, but the foundation of the alchemy conference still depends on alchemy."
Looking at the dim palace in front of him, Ji Yi's lips curled up slightly.
Only fools rush to explore.
Due to previous careful exploration, part of the underground palace map has been successfully drawn.
Therefore, it only took half an hour for Lin Yi and the five of them to arrive at the previous location.
There, an ordinary torch was burning quietly.
It's just that the red flames above seemed to have been eroded in some way, and seemed to be completely extinguished at any time in the flickering light and darkness.
"Six hours have passed since the last exploration and we are returning now.
Before I left, the innate true fire I left here was only as powerful as the body-protecting aura in the early stages of foundation building.
However, it is obvious that during this period, there were no attacks by monsters such as the Stone Monster, which means that this place is temporarily safe.
However, judging from the fact that the remaining spiritual wood under the torch is only one-fifth of what it was before, the evil spirit here is 30% stronger than that of the surrounding palaces."
Ji Yi looked at the still burning spirit wood and said to Li Hong and the others with a solemn expression.
There were several burning torches along the way, which Ji Yi asked Li Hong and others to keep.
The purpose was to confirm whether the underground palace that had been explored would change during the time when he and others left.
However, from the current point of view, the only thing that has changed is the concentration of Yin evil spirit.
"Does this mean that the restrictions in the underground palace have been further loosened?
After all, when we came here before, the evil spirit was not so strong."
Wan Mu, who was responsible for exploring ahead, looked at the dark corridor ahead and said with a frown.
"Yes, although we cannot know the cracking situation of the restriction, the strong Yin evil spirit can indeed be reflected from the side."
Lin Yi nodded and continued.
"The corridor in front of us looks spacious, but in the event of a battle, it can only accommodate two people at most.
Next, we keep a certain distance.
If you are attacked, give priority to defense and see where the attack comes from."
"clear."
As these words were spoken, everyone continued to march with Lin Yi in the middle, Li Hong, Xiao Qun in the back, and Wan Mu and Wang Shen in the front.
To be continued...
