Demon Lake Island is an unknown island located near the edge of the Inner Star Sea. The only people who know where this island is are some casual cultivators living on other nearby islands.
The reason why this island is still remembered by these monks and given such a weird name is because there is a material called "emerald copper" produced in several lakes on the island.
Although this material is not rare, it is a necessary item for refining several unique magic weapons. Therefore, some low-level monks occasionally come to this island to salvage this material.
I don't know if these lakes are due to the abundance of emerald copper. All the lakes are as green as emeralds, and the greenness is far higher than that of ordinary lakes. Moreover, mortals who fall into the lake water can actually float on their own and never sink.
As a result, the reputation of the Demon Lake gradually spread among the nearby islands.
However, there are few trees on this island and there are no spiritual veins, so it is rarely visited by people.
But on this day, there were fifty or sixty low-level monks gathered at the edge of a lake on the island, and they were hastily setting up several complex and unusual temporary magic circles. Most of them were monks in the Qi Refining Stage, and there were only six or seven monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Just a name.
And low in the sky in the center of the lake, there were three monks in the Danjie stage gathered there, talking in whispers.
"Junior brother Lei, I won't fail again this time. In order to break the restriction, senior brother, I have invested almost all my wealth, and I have spent more than 200,000 spiritual stones. If I fail again, I don't have any spiritual stones to spare.
Already." A wrinkled old man in gray robe said to the other two with a sad face.
"Humph, Senior Brother Wu is too exaggerated. Among the three of us, I am afraid that Senior Brother is the richest. The Jinming Tower run by Senior Brother is famous in the nearby sea area. How can there be a shortage of spiritual stones." The other one has a handsome face.
The man in blue robe replied with a snort.
"Junior Brother Lei doesn't know something. Even though the Jinming Building that I opened for my brother seems to be very big, in fact it has been overcrowded by several large shops such as Huoyun Pavilion. Now it is just barely able to survive." The old man in gray robe.
He let out a long sigh, looking helpless.
"Brother Wu, why are you complaining? Your Jin Ming Lou opened just a year or two ago. If it was really unprofitable, how could it have been open until now?" The last person was a gorgeous woman in a red shirt with a fat butt.
She has big breasts and a pair of watery peach blossom eyes. Her eyes are flowing and charming.
"Jin Ming Lou did earn some spiritual stones in the past few years, but that was all when the master was still alive. Since the barbarian master suddenly disappeared more than a hundred years ago, there is no support for the Yuanying monks. My Jin Ming Lou
The building was immediately squeezed by other large shops. In the past few years, it was okay, and the barbarian master was still powerful, so they did not dare to make too many points. But since twenty years ago, the master was seriously injured by the Six Paths Supreme Saint and died.
After the news came, this business was deemed impossible to continue. If it weren't for my senior brother, who is also a late-stage alchemy monk, I'm afraid this little bit of property would have been swallowed up by others. How could my junior brother and junior sister be so carefree and at ease.
"The old man in gray robe had a wry smile on his face.
"What Senior Brother Wu said, Junior Brother, I have no interest in knowing, and I don't want to know. I only know that the spirit stone I took out is not one less than that of Senior Brother. Besides, after Master disappeared, you are not the only one who has had a hard time. Aren't you not?
I know that the master had a fiery temper and offended countless monks. Now he has disappeared. But I was regarded as a target of revenge by these people and was hunted for decades before I finally got rid of them. That's right.
Senior Brother Wu has become a force of his own, and he has some connection with the Blood Light Sect, so he can truly sit back and relax." The man in blue robe had a flash of baleful aura, revealing a thick aura of blood.
"Junior brother, what are you talking about? If I hadn't had so many disciples, I would have followed your example and become anonymous. Why bother to support it? Needless to say, the annual expenses are huge now. In order to have the temporary backing of the Blood Light Sect, I spend every year
I have to pay tribute to a large amount of spiritual stones. My life is also very sad. I have heard a lot about my junior brother's name over the years. The name of the Blood-Hand Demon is already famous among us pill-forming monks.
.Junior brother’s skills can advance faster through killing. Now, haven’t they advanced from the early stage to the middle stage?” The old man in gray robe still looked like he was sighing.
The young man in blue robes raised his eyebrows and looked very dissatisfied. He seemed to want to refute something, but the beautiful woman giggled and interrupted their argument.
"Senior Brother Wu, Junior Brother Lei, why do you keep arguing? After all, our life will be difficult after the Barbarian Master is gone. This must be true. But as long as the treasures in the secret cave are taken out, I believe that with Master Yuanying mid-stage monk
His identity is enough for us to share it equally. When the time comes, we can either hide our names and practice hard, or we can use them to join other forces to protect ourselves. I believe there will be absolutely no problem."
Upon hearing the beautiful woman's words, the old man and the young man in blue robe looked at each other and actually stopped arguing, seeming to be quite afraid of this woman.
But the three of them silently watched the low-level monks by the lake setting up the magic circle for a while, and then the young man in blue robe asked the beautiful woman again.
"Sister Cai, after the ban below, it is really the master's treasure cave. You can't be mistaken. Although the ban is indeed the master's hand, the barbarian master always likes to set up temporary caves on some small islands. It can't be just one of them.
Well. If that's the case, all our efforts these days have been wasted."
"Why, Junior Brother Lei doesn't believe what Senior Sister says!" Upon hearing this, the pretty woman looked a little unhappy.
The young man in blue robe licked his lips and continued expressionlessly: "Junior sister found me and Senior Brother Wu and said that she had the location where Master hid the treasure, and she took us to this island to collect the treasure a few months ago. But
But he never told us how to know the location of the treasure cave. Although the master loves you, according to his old man's temper, it is impossible to mention this matter to you. Now you can open the ban, senior sister
You might as well explain this matter to the two of us more clearly, so that Senior Brother Wu and I can feel more at ease."
"Yes, there is some truth to what Junior Brother said. In addition, Junior Sister has not been heard from in these years, and suddenly she appears and takes me and Junior Brother to retrieve the treasure, which makes people a little suspicious." The old man in gray robe also said calmly.
"Why, I don't explain this matter clearly, but you two want to take action, want to bully me, a little girl who is in the early stage of pill formation?" The beautiful woman's face darkened, she raised one hand, gently pulled down a strand of blue silk in front of her forehead, and flowered it.
His face suddenly became as cold as ice. But on his jade wrist with white skin, there was a purple bracelet with mysterious runes flashing.
When the old man and the young man saw the bracelet, their expressions changed drastically.
"I didn't expect that the master actually gave his purple ice bracelet to senior sister! Based on this ancient treasure alone =, I am afraid that senior brother and I will not be the opponent of senior sister." The young man in blue robe took a long breath, with eyes in his eyes.
There was a faint look of anger and jealousy. He didn't know whether the anger was directed at the woman or at the barbarian in his mouth.
The expression of the old man in gray robe on the side changed several times, and after his thoughts suddenly changed, he also laughed:
"Junior sister is really joking. How could we have such thoughts? It's just this time, in order to break the restriction under the lake, we really spent all our money, so it seems reasonable to be more cautious. Junior sister, but
Not even a single spiritual stone was taken out."
"Since I led you to find the treasure cave and only took one third of the treasure, why should I bring out the spirit stone again? However, since both Senior Brother Wu and Junior Brother Lei have some doubts about the location of the treasure, I really can't
That's what I said." After the beautiful woman hesitated for a moment, her expression finally calmed down a little.
"Then I and I are all ears." The old man felt happy and said with a smile on his face. The young man also looked gloomy and fell silent.
"My name is the female disciple of Barbarian Master, but I am actually just his concubine. You two know this well even if you think about it. I just accompanied him once and inadvertently obtained this treasure from his dream speech.
The location of the treasure. He also knows that his life span is not long, and he seems to be planning to die sitting in this cave with these treasures." The beautiful woman said without changing her expression.
"It's that simple!"
The old man and the young man looked at each other and couldn't help but look at each other. The young man in blue robe couldn't help but asked.
"How complicated do you think it is? I've already said it, it's up to you whether you believe it or not. Besides, if it weren't for the treasure hiding place down there, do you think the barbarian master would lay out such a complicated prohibition formation outside a temporary cave? In our opinion
The power of three people cannot be completely relieved after several months. Apart from the treasure cave, is there any other explanation?" the gorgeous woman sneered.
"What junior sister said makes sense. It seems that junior brother and I are a little too worried. Fortunately, there is only the last level of the ban below. As long as the ban is broken, our hard work in the past few months will not be in vain. I will first
Go and see how they have arranged the forbidden-breaking magic circle." The gray-robed old man's eyes flickered and he pondered for a moment, then he hugged the two of them with a fist and said with a dry cough.
Then he turned into a ray of yellow light and ran straight to the shore.
"I'm also going to confirm the situation of the ban under the lake!" The young man in blue robe raised his eyebrows, glanced at the beautiful woman, and said calmly.
Immediately, there was a flash of blood on the young man's body, and a blood-colored light shield emerged. His figure sank down, and fell directly into the lake, disappearing without a trace.
Seeing the other two people leaving her one after another, the gorgeous woman curled her lips slightly, but an imperceptible cold light flashed deep in her eyes.
After a meal, the old man gave some instructions to the low-level monks by the lake, and then flew towards the woman in the center of the lake again. At almost the same time, the lake water rolled, and the young man in blue robe
It also shot out from below.
In the blink of an eye, these three people gathered together again.
"Junior Brother Lei, Junior Sister Cai, the magic circle has been arranged... Hey, what is that?" The old man just smiled at the other two people and was about to say something, but his expression changed and he suddenly turned his head and looked towards the horizon in a certain direction.
go.
The pretty woman and the young man in blue robe were both shocked and hurriedly followed the sound.
A green light flashed in the distance, and a dazzling green rainbow shot out. The target seemed to be the lake where we were.
