Qu Ke and Shen Zening had noticed the conversation between Lin Shen and Luo Wei a long time ago. When they saw him coming back, they couldn't help but curiously asked.
Lin Shen did not hide anything and recounted what Luo Wei said.
After hearing this, Qu Ke and Shen Zening looked at each other in amazement.
I was amazed at Luo Wei's extensive knowledge.
I was also amazed that there were so many powerful practitioners participating in a Xuandu conference.
"It seems that we have to be more careful during the Xuandu Conference!" Qu Ke said with a slightly condensed expression.
Lin Shen and Shen Zening nodded solemnly.
The Xuandu Conference has not even started yet, but bloodshed has already broken out. You can imagine how many people will fight for the Xuanhua Wood Spirit after entering Xuandu Mountain!
The real difficulty in the Xuandu Conference is not how to find the Xuanhua Wood Spirit, but how to protect the treasure from the covetousness of others after finding the Xuanhua Wood Spirit!
If nothing else, you will probably encounter a lot of fierce battles after entering Xuandu Mountain.
It is precisely because of this that there are almost no lone rangers among the participants.
At least two or three people go together to look out for each other and avoid being attacked alone.
However, this was not in line with Lin Shen's thoughts.
His eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Two senior brothers, I have a suggestion. After entering Xuandu Mountain later, why don't we divide into two groups? The two senior brothers go together, and I am alone. In this way, we must search
The Xuanhua Wood Spirit will be more efficient."
Qu Ke and Shen Zening were startled when they heard this, but then they thought about it and realized that what Lin Shen said was not unreasonable.
Although it is safe to search in groups of three, it is not as efficient as searching separately.
As for safety, if the two of them are together, even if they encounter the three disciples of the Corpse Shadow Sect, even if they cannot defeat them, they can still escape without any problem.
As for Lin Shen, there is no problem!
Among the practitioners present, no matter who encounters Lin Shen, the first thing they have to worry about is their own safety!
Thinking of this, Qu Ke and Shen Zening nodded and agreed to Lin Shen's proposal.
Lin Shen felt certain when he saw this.
He has a clone, and he can summon the clone to assist in the search. It is undoubtedly most beneficial to act alone.
Qu Ke and Shen Zening were traveling together, so it was not convenient to summon the clone.
While Lin Shen and the others were talking, on the slope more than 300 meters away, three Blood Sea Sect disciples stared at them with cold eyes.
"Shan Bai, did you read that correctly? Are you sure he is from the Jiuyang Sect?"
"It's definitely true. I know Qu Ke. He is an inner disciple of Jiuyang Sect. I have fought against him before!"
"That's good. When we enter Xuandu Mountain later, we will find an opportunity to kill all three Jiuyang Sect disciples!"
"Okay, Jiuyang Sect killed so many of our fellow disciples in the Spirit Cave. Even Elder Wu and Brother Min died. This revenge must be avenged. Now let's take these three people to sacrifice the flag, and wait until we get the Xuan Hua Liquid to be promoted to a monk
, let’s go back to the Ling Cave and kill everyone in the Jiuyang Sect!”
The eyes of the three Blood Sea Sect disciples flashed a look of ferocity in unison.
As the war in the Spirit Cave became more intense, many members of the Blood Sea Sect and Jiuyang Sect died in the battle.
The two sects, which were originally at odds with each other, now have a growing hatred.
Given the opportunity to kill Nine Sun Sect disciples, the three Blood Sea Sect disciples would naturally not want to miss it.
at the same time.
In the corner of the crowd, Lian Xi stared at Lin Shen with a gloomy expression, his eyes flickering.
Lin Shen has been inseparable from his companions these days, so that he has never been able to find an opportunity to make a move.
Fortunately, they were lucky and got a few Xuandu Tokens from other people, but they also lost several men for this purpose.
Lian Xi blamed all the losses on Lin Shen.
If this kid hadn't refused to obediently agree to him, they wouldn't have had to attack a powerful casual cultivator for the last token, and even paid the price of losing the lives of three of their companions!
It's all this guy's fault!
"It's best not to let me find you alone in Xuandu Mountain, otherwise you will be dead!"
Lian Xi thought fiercely.
At this moment, a long bell sound suddenly sounded on Xuandu Mountain.
The surrounding area suddenly fell silent, and everyone turned their attention to Xuandu Mountain.
In everyone's surprised eyes, a blue curtain like rippling waves suddenly descended from the sky, from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, slowly covering the entire Xuandu Mountain, and then suddenly opened a gap.
In an instant, the mountain scenery was completely different from the one just now, and the endless mountains, rivers, hills and ravines were immediately revealed.
Among them, there are streams flowing through valleys, peaks stacking up on top of each other, and as far as the eye can see, the green vines and green vines connect to the clouds to catch the light, which is extremely beautiful!
The crowd suddenly burst into exclamations one after another.
Many practitioners who saw this scene for the first time were shocked.
Lin Shen was also filled with wonder.
The scenery of Xuandu Mountain they saw just now was just an illusion created by the mountain guarding formation. The scene in front of them was the real interior of Xuandu Mountain!
This Xuandu Mountain is actually much wider than it looked just now!
At this moment, a low roar suddenly sounded, and a strange beast made of white bones suddenly rushed out of the crowd and flew towards Xuandu Mountain through the air.
Taking a closer look, it was the three Corpse Yin Sect disciples.
The three people sat on the back of the bone beast, soared out, and disappeared into the gap in the blink of an eye.
This move seemed to press a certain switch. In an instant, countless figures from the crowd rushed out one after another, flying in the wind or riding strange beasts, rushing into the Xuandu Mountain, fearing to be one step behind.
"Two junior brothers, let's get going too." Qu Ke said with a smile.
Lin Shen and Shen Zening nodded one after another, and then the three of them set up the wind control technique, and the wind suddenly disappeared into the gap like a breeze.
His eyes flickered, and when his vision became clear again, Lin Shen found that he was in a valley.
Not far away is a clear stream covered with pebbles, surrounded by ancient trees and quiet, with the sound of apes crying from afar.
Lin Shen took a deep breath and felt as if the water was refreshing and cool all over his body. He felt like he was being cleansed both inside and outside.
"What a rich spiritual energy!"
After actually entering Xuandu Mountain, he discovered that the concentration of spiritual energy here was much higher than what he had sensed before.
It’s almost as good as a cave at the level of a monastery!
Even though the level of the jingshe is not high, Xuandu Mountain is so vast. Such a vast jingshe-level cave cannot be compared to the man-made jingshe wooden buildings where the disciples of the lower courtyard of Jiuyang Taoist Academy live.
There was a sound of landing behind him, but it was Qu Ke and Shen Zening who chased after him.
Both of them were equally surprised by the rich aura here.
Qu Ke's eyes flashed slightly and he said: "It is rumored that the ground veins of Xuandu Mountain have been connected and circulated by formations for thousands of years. Not only has the spiritual energy not been scattered, but it has vaguely condensed into a cave. Now it seems to be true!"
Shen Zening nodded with deep approval: "Looking at the concentration of spiritual energy, in a hundred years at most, it is estimated that it will reach the level of a monastery. If such a large monastery cave is used to cultivate disciples, Xuanling Sect may not be able to use it for dozens of years."
By the year, the strength will surpass Shuangji Sect!"
The Shuangji Sect is the dominant sect in Quanle City, and its strength is almost the same as that of the Xuanling Sect.
The big cities where the two sects are located are only less than a hundred miles apart, and there have been many frictions and conflicts in the past.
Over the past thousands of years, it has become as powerful as water and fire.
After chatting for a while, the three of them separated. Qu Ke and Shen Zening went straight to the west. Lin Shen pondered for a moment, chose a direction at will, and picked up Yunlong Lu.
More than a hundred meters behind, among the crowd who had just entered, Lian Xi's eyes suddenly lit up as he watched the three of them separate.
"The boy was separated from his companions!"
"Haha, God is really helping me. Now let's see how this kid can escape from my grasp!"
A sinister smile appeared on Lian Xi's face, and she immediately made up her mind.
"Let's go, let's catch up and kill that kid first!"
Luoden on the side looked careless, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.
"Brother, is it a little strange that the boy suddenly separated from his companions?"
Lian Xi was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something and sneered.
"Mostly I think it is more efficient to search for the Xuanhua Wood Spirit separately. Huh, I don't know where the confidence comes from. There are strong people everywhere in Xuandu Mountain now. If you dare to act alone, even if you find the Xuanhua Wood Spirit, you will be marrying someone else.
Yi’s fate!”
Roden hesitated and said: "Even so, if that person doesn't have a few brushes, he wouldn't dare to act alone, right?"
"So what? That kid is in his early twenties. He can start to gather spiritual veins at this age. He is already extremely talented. He can have three or four spiritual veins that can break through the sky. You and I are both ten-meridian cultivators.
Do you still have to be afraid of a junior with third or fourth lineage cultivation?"
Having said this, Lian Xi frowned and glared at Roden.
"Why are you becoming less and less courageous? Let me tell you, we paid a lot of money to get the Xuandu Order this time. If we don't make enough money on this trip, how will we explain it to the elders when we go back?"
"Besides, that boy can tell at a glance that he is from a large family, and he must have a lot of good things. If he can get it, even if he can't find the Xuanhua Wood Spirit this time, he can make up for part of the loss!"
"What if we find one or two top-quality magic weapons from this kid again?"
Following Lian Xi's words, Roden's eyes became brighter and brighter, obviously he was moved by what he said.
Disciples of these small sects generally only have one or two medium- to high-grade magical weapons in their hands. If they could get a top-quality magical weapon, they would laugh out of their dreams.
Thinking of this, Roden no longer hesitated, gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.
"Just listen to big brother!"
After all, given his age, that boy, even if he has some strength, is still not as good as the three disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect, or Yin Xianbin, Guan Zhou and others.
It's not like they don't have a trump card, so it shouldn't be difficult to take down that kid.
After reaching an agreement, the two of them didn't waste any time and immediately chased after Lin Shen in the direction he left.
After flying for a while, Lin Shen found a secluded place, summoned all the clones except for Yi Bingsheng, and immediately dispersed, starting to look for the Xuanhua Wood Spirit.
When he was on the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, he had already asked Qu Ke for advice on how to capture the Xuanhua Wood Spirit.
The Xuanhua Wood Spirit belongs to the wood genus and likes to absorb the wood spiritual energy, so it often attaches itself to the spiritual trees and grass.
Therefore, as long as you find a place where spiritual trees and grass grow, you will most likely be able to find traces of the Xuanhua Wood Spirit.
"What a pity. If I had known this earlier, I would have brought Xiao Ai here!"
Lin Shen thought secretly.
Xiao Ai's keen perception of natural aura is perfect for times like this!
Shaking his head, Lin Shen stopped his distracting thoughts and began to search intently.
Although Xuandu Mountain is named after a mountain, it is actually a group of mountains and rivers covering an area of thousands of miles.
More than two thousand practitioners sounds like a lot, but after being dispersed throughout Xuandu Mountain, they are like a stone thrown into the sea, unable to stir up even a single wave.
Lin Shen searched for a long time and found no one.
But he was also happy with it.
The seven people of the main body and the clones dispersed and searched at the same time, and the speed was extremely fast. On average, they could search a mountain peak in less than two quarters of an hour.
Although this method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, it is the most practical and effective for Lin Shen.
After searching more than a dozen mountain peaks, Lin Shen's expression suddenly changed and he quickly flew away in a certain direction.
After a while, he came to the mountainside of a mountain and landed in a forest clearing.
The pure Yang body clone has already been waiting here.
About five or six hundred meters away from here, a tall banyan tree that could hold a dozen people's arms and reach a height of 20 to 30 meters stood tall.
Even from a long distance away, you can feel the vitality emanating from that banyan tree, which is so rich that it's amazing.
"The tree is at least six to seven hundred years old. It is estimated that it will be able to awaken its spiritual wisdom soon!"
Lin Shen clicked his tongue in surprise.
Along the way, he had noticed long ago that the vegetation in Xuandu Mountain was nourished by spiritual energy, and its vitality was far greater than that in the outside world.
Under normal circumstances, it would take a banyan tree to grow for thousands of years if it wanted to awaken spiritual wisdom.
The banyan tree in front of us has been bathed in rich spiritual energy all year round. It is only six or seven hundred years old and is already showing signs of maturity. This is all due to this unique growth environment.
Such a spiritual tree is highly likely to be accompanied by the Xuanhua Wood Spirit!
In fact, as he approached the banyan tree, Lin Shen could faintly sense that there was a strange aura in the banyan tree, like ink dots falling on white paper, which was extremely abrupt and conspicuous.
At the same time, he gradually smelled a strange fragrance in his nose.
All of this undoubtedly indicates the existence of Xuanhua Wood Spirit!
Lin Shen's spirit perked up, and his movements became gentler and gentler. At the same time, he affixed a concealment talisman and an escape talisman to himself and the pure Yang body clone, and then cautiously approached the banyan tree.
When he got within a hundred meters of the banyan tree, Lin Shen finally heard a strange sound coming from the tree crown.
He looked intently and saw a little boy the size of a palm, with sky-high braids and pink makeup, sitting on a horizontal branch, with a satisfied face sucking in the spiritual energy around him, dancing and screaming from time to time.
"Xuanhua Wood Spirit!"
Lin Shen's eyes suddenly focused, and when he saw this, he no longer hesitated. He rushed out from behind the tree and rushed towards the Xuanhua wood spirit in the crown of the banyan tree.
The Xuanhua wood spirit on the crown of the tree noticed the movement for the first time. When he looked back, his face suddenly turned pale, he yelled "Ah", turned around and rushed towards the bottom of the tree.
Most monsters such as plant elves are born with the ability to escape from the earth. As long as they burrow underground, ordinary practitioners will never be able to find it unless the monks follow it with their spiritual sense.
Of course, Lin Shen would not let his prey escape easily. Without thinking, he poked it with his finger and drank in a low voice.
"Certainly!"
Amidst the deep shouts, Xuanhua Wood Spirit's rushing figure suddenly stopped, its limbs and body unable to move, and only its eyeballs were left to spin around, with a frightened look on its face.
In terms of strength and cultivation alone, the Xuanhua Wood Spirit can't even compare to the demonic beasts in the Mysterious Realm, so its ability to escape is a bit of a headache.
However, in front of Lin Shen's perfect fifth-level immobilization spell, it was suddenly deprived of its ability to move.
Lin Shen had already shot him with electricity, and in the blink of an eye he was within five meters of the Xuanhua Wood Spirit.
At the critical moment, the Xuanhua Wood Spirit screamed and finally got rid of the shackles of the Immobilization Curse.
At this time, it was too late to escape underground. It simply hit the trunk of the banyan tree beside it and disappeared in an instant.
When he appeared again, he emerged from the trunk of a tall tree more than thirty meters away.
"Yeah!"
The Xuanhua wood spirit that escaped the disaster laughed loudly, made a face at Lin Shen, and immediately got into the ground and fled.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the shadow of the tree at its feet, stretched out his arms and took it easily in his hand.
"Yeah! Yeah!"
Caught off guard, the Xuanhua Wood Spirit screamed in horror and struggled wildly. Unfortunately, its palm-sized body had little strength and was tightly grasped by the powerful palm like an iron hoop.
And the owner of the palm is surprisingly a pure Yang body clone.
While the Xuanhua Wood Spirit focused its attention on Lin Shen, he used the Shadow Technique to get out from behind the Xuanhua Wood Spirit and successfully captured him in one fell swoop.
Looking at the Xuanhua Wood Spirit in the pure Yang body's hand, Lin Shen couldn't help but clicked his tongue.
With his strength, he almost couldn't capture the Xuanhua Wood Spirit even in a surprise attack.
If it weren't for the clone's help, this little guy might have escaped.
This shows how difficult it is to capture this Xuanhua Wood Spirit!
"No wonder the amount of Xuanhua Liquid traded in Muzu City every year is not large. Unless the monks take action, ordinary Mingqiao practitioners who want to capture the Xuanhua Wood Spirit will have to spend a lot of energy and time!"
In any sect, monks are an extremely important fighting force and will not be dispatched easily.
Moreover, most of the monks are also responsible for important positions in the sect and are extremely busy. They themselves feel that they don’t have enough time to practice. How can they waste time on searching and arresting the Xuanhua Wood Spirit?
While he was thinking about it, Lin Shen suddenly heard a whimpering sound in his ears.
When he lowered his head and looked down, he saw that the Xuanhua Wood Spirit in the clone's hand was wiping away tears with its two small white hands like lotus roots, and a sound of weeping and sobbing came out of its mouth.
Lin Shen laughed dumbly.
However, he knew that this little guy was very cunning, so he would not be deceived by this pitiful appearance. He directly took the Xuanhua Wood Spirit from the clone's hand, then let the clone leave and continued the search.
And he was about to get the Xuan Hua Liquid.
But before he could make any move, Lin Shen's expression suddenly changed and he looked to the left front.
A burst of conversation came from there.
"Damn it, where did that kid go?"
"Brother, is there something wrong with your compass? How do you keep it in the east, west, and all kinds of directions?"
"It's impossible. This compass was given to me by Elder Liu, and it's also a magic weapon. How could something go wrong? I think that kid probably has a treasure locked by a disordered aura!"
"What should we do?"
"Don't worry, this kid walked all the way, and there are auras left along the way. When my compass collects more auras, the position will be more accurate, and I will definitely find it by then."
Halfway through the words, the voice suddenly stopped.
Just because Lian Xi suddenly saw a person standing not far ahead, a familiar face looking at him with a smile.
