There are several large mountains several hundred feet high on the island, and they are green and lush, with many trees growing on them.
After Bai Ran flew around these mountains, he took Wen Siyue and landed at the foot of one of the mountains.
In the woman's shocked eyes, Bai Ran released the flying sword. After a few hours, a small cave was opened under the mountain.
Although this cave is only half the size of the original Wuhai Cave, its various structures are also much simpler.
But the necessary bedrooms, secret rooms, and even the refining room and medicine garden are all present.
Bai Ran took a look and felt quite satisfied, so he set up a few formations at the entrance and walked inside with Wen Siyue.
"You can just stay here from now on! I will tell you the formula for the magic circle at the entrance of the cave. This place is quite secluded. You can practice well here and there should be a chance of entering the pill formation stage." Bai Ran took Wen Siyue with him.
He entered the bedroom, sat on a hastily cut stone chair, looked at the woman carefully, and then spoke slowly.
"Thank you, Senior Li!" Wen Siyue said with a hint of blush on her face under Bai Ran's gaze, as if she didn't know what she was doing!
"Senior Li?" Bai Ran laughed.
"I'm sorry, I should call you..." Wen Siyue lowered her head in a hurry, with a look of hesitation on her face.
She really doesn't know how to address this person after becoming his concubine?
"Just call me Mr. Li!" Bai Ran rubbed his nose and said lightly.
He did not show his true face in front of Wen Siyue, but still spoke to her in the disguise of a middle-aged man.
"Yes, Mr. Li!" Wen Siyue called out obediently after hesitating for a moment.
Bai Ran nodded with satisfaction, thought about the words in his heart, and then asked warmly:
"When did Fellow Daoist Wen arrive at the outer sea, and how did Mrs. Fan become the leader of the Miaoyin Sect? As far as I know, the Miaoyin Sect seems to have always been headed by the Purple Spirit Fairy."
"Hey! Sir, you are very clear about the past affairs of our sect!" Wen Siyue saw that Bairan did not rush to ask about the monster lair, but instead asked about the Miaoyin Sect, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
But then after thinking about it, she opened her lips slightly and explained:
"Before the Miaoyin Sect moved to the outer star sea, everything within the sect was indeed decided by the young sect leader. But later, when it went to the Xutian Palace to retrieve the treasure, a shocking change occurred in this sect. When I return
When he arrived at the gate, Zhuo You made
He has disappeared. The power within the sect has fallen into the hands of Fan Zuoshi and a group of outsiders. Later I found out that they were actually monks of the devil. The Miaoyin Sect has become a vassal of the devil. Fan Zuoshi immediately
Established himself as the leader and
A large number of disciples in the sect immediately gathered and took us through the teleportation array of Tianxing City to get here. I was brought here at that time. After that, the sect opened a secret market here, and it has continued to
Now. Girl brother
Those who have second thoughts among me, those who have disappeared over the years, those who were sent away, have mostly disappeared. Even if I hadn’t been rescued by my husband today, I would have been the furnace for others." Wen Siyue said somewhat sadly.
.
"Master Fan, what are you doing in this alien sea? You wouldn't come just to open a secret market, right?" Bai Ran's expression changed and he asked quietly.
"I don't know much about this! But Fan Zuoshi and the demonic monk surnamed Yun have been using the secret market to collect all kinds of information, as if they are looking for something." Wen Siyue said with some uncertainty.
, a look of doubt flashed across his face.
Hearing this, Bai Ran stopped asking and started thinking about it.
From what this woman said, it seemed that the Miaoyinmen rebellion happened after she was rescued by him that day.
At that time, Fairy Ziling and herself were trapped in the Xutian Palace.
As soon as Mrs. Fan succeeded in seizing power, she immediately teleported to Qiyuan Island with a large number of disciples. The Anti-Star Alliance then launched an offensive against Tianxing City.
It seems that no matter which demonic force is plotting the Miaoyin Sect, it is obviously very powerful within the Counter Star Alliance.
Otherwise, the time would not have been so coincidental.
When Fairy Zi Ling came out of Xutian Palace, the door was naturally empty.
As for this demonic force, what are they trying to find in the sea with the help of these female cultivators from the Miaoyin Sect? Naturally, there is some mystery in it!
Bai Ran didn't care about himself and didn't bother to ask about this matter.
Moreover, Master Miaohe, who had a huge feud with him, seemed to be related to the current Miaoyin Sect. Bai Ran was even more unwilling to get involved in the trap.
Therefore, when he was in the secret market, he rejected Mrs. Fan's suggestion.
As for returning to the Inner Star Sea, he didn't think about it at all until he broke through the bottleneck in his cultivation.
Although monsters and beasts are rampant here, the Inner Star Sea may not be very safe for him who carries the treasure.
In a short period of time, Bai Ran thought over Wen Siyue's words several times and found nothing wrong with them.
It seems that he was not deceived.
It's no wonder that Bai Ran is so cautious. In fact, the Xutian Cauldron on his body is too eye-catching. There are countless old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage who are looking for him everywhere.
And throughout the ages, there have been countless cases of women falling into other people's traps because of their lust. Bai Ran didn't want to be careless and become one of them.
Of course, overall, the possibility that this woman is a trap is very slim.
After all, no one can control when and where he will appear, and he is quite confident in his "form-changing technique".
Even if the monks in the early stage of Nascent Soul see him, they may not be able to see through this secret technique!
At this time, Wen Siyue saw Bai Ran's uncertain expression and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
After Bai Ran came back to his senses, he noticed something strange about the beautiful woman in front of him, and said with a slight smile:
"Now I have brought you out of the secret city as promised and placed you here. Now you can tell Li the location of the monster's lair! Once I know the location, I will leave here immediately. Then you
I won’t owe each other any more.”
"Senior, don't you plan to ask the little girl to be your concubine?" Wen Siyue was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Li is used to being single. He doesn't need anyone around him." Bai Ran said calmly.
Wen Siyue fell silent. After a moment, a complex look appeared on her face, and she shook her head:
"Thank you for your kindness, sir! Since I said that I would be senior's concubine, I have never regretted it. Senior, please rest assured that Siyue will keep her promise and will not have any complaints." A trace of light flashed in Wen Siyue's bright eyes.
After the strange color, he said extremely calmly.
"Li has no intention of testing Fellow Taoist Wen's mind. What he just said is true. But if Fellow Taoist decides that he really wants to be my concubine, Li will not refuse. When the time comes, Wen
Fellow Taoist, don't regret it!" Bai Ran understood the woman's concerns and couldn't help but say with a half-smile.
He didn't believe that Wen Siyue really wanted to be a concubine.
Putting forward this condition in the secret market is probably just a helpless move.
Although concubines are much more powerful than furnace cauldrons, no foundation-building female cultivator would willingly be someone else’s concubine. Even if there are some, they are forced to do so!
Although Bai Ran was a little tempted by Wen Siyue's stunning appearance, he understood more clearly that now was the critical period for him to break through in his cultivation, and it was impossible to have a female cultivator in the foundation-building stage by his side for a long time.
It's better to just be a favor and give up!
"I..." After hearing Bai Ran's explanation, Wen Siyue finally became dubious, with a look of hesitation on her face.
"What, could it be that fellow Taoist really wants to be my concubine?" Bai Ran said softly with a smile in his eyes.
"No! I... I'm here to thank you sir! This junior, Wen Siyue, will never forget the great kindness of my seniors in the future!" Wen Siyue blurted out her denial in a panic. Then she paused and bit her red lips.
He bowed deeply to Bai Ran and said again, with a worried look on his face.
"In this case, let's stop talking about being a concubine. Fellow Taoist, you don't have to take it to heart anymore." Bai Ran didn't mean to make things difficult at all.
"Thank you sir for your help!"
Wen Siyue was filled with surprises and surprises! After her expression relaxed, her face suddenly bloomed and her face was radiant, making people's hearts beat!
With such a beautiful scenery in front of him, Bai Ran couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart, but it was quickly buried in his mind by reason.
"Fellow Literary Daoist, let's talk about the Wind-Splitting Beast!" Bai Ran asked calmly after calming down again.
"Mr. Li, the lair of the Wind-Splitting Beast seems to be a bit dangerous now. It is close to the edge of the abyss. Senior, you should consider it carefully before deciding whether to go to the beast's lair, right?" Wen Siyue suppressed her smile.
, said with some worry.
"The edge of the abyss?" Bai Ran frowned, this did sound a bit tricky.
Today's abyss is really extremely dangerous!
After asking Wen Siyue about the location of the wind-splitting beast's lair, Bai Ran casually left a bottle of elixir for the woman to take and refine. Wen Siyue was naturally very grateful and immediately went into seclusion to refine the elixir.
Bai Ran entered another secret room, preparing to study the newly acquired copper pieces.
Now he is sitting cross-legged in the secret room, carefully looking at the things in his hands.
Only one side of the copper plate had words engraved on it, while the other side showed an extremely weird picture, actually depicting a monster with three heads and six arms.
This monster's three eyes were wide open with anger, and its six arms were raised to the sky. I don't know what its purpose was.
After frowning and looking at it for a while, Bai Ran took out the animal skin book and compared the words on the two things.
Only then did he discover that the text on the copper plate and the text on the animal skin book were mostly the same in structure, but there were some subtle differences. It was as if they came from the same source but evolved into different fonts.
Unable to discern anything from the surface, Bai Ran poured mana into the copper piece without hesitation.
As the mana was injected into the copper piece, it made a low-pitched sound and trembled automatically.
Suddenly there was a bright light, and half of the copper plate shot out a yellow beam of light, which shot onto the opposite stone wall.
A moving ancient scroll was immediately displayed.
Bai Ran felt happy at first, but when he saw it, he was stunned again.
A humanoid monster with scales all over its body and a single horn on its head first appeared in the painting. The monster's appearance was exactly the same as the three-headed and six-armed monster engraved on the back of the copper plate, but at this time it was still a head.
.
Bai Ran was wondering.
After a flash of light, the monster in the painting sat cross-legged on the ground, making a strange handprint with both hands, and its whole body twisted slightly, assuming a strange posture.
Bai Ran showed a look of astonishment.
After a while, the handprints of the monster in the painting changed, its body twisted again, and it changed into a more peculiar sitting posture.
In this way, every once in a while, the humanoid monster changes its posture and handprints inexplicably, as if it is practicing some kind of skill.
After half an hour, the copper plate dimmed and the picture disappeared.
Bai Ran carefully counted and found that the monster in the painting had taken a total of thirty-six poses.
Bai Ran rubbed his nose and looked at the things in his hands, with a strange look on his face.
Although he didn't know what the text on the copper plate contained, it seemed from the picture that this object was definitely not belonging to a human monk, but actually recorded the skills of a demon cultivator.
He had never known before that high-level monsters could actually practice martial arts. Aren't monsters born with the ability to swallow spiritual energy and practice it on their own?
Judging from the fact that the practitioners of the technique are monsters that can transform into human forms, this technique is definitely not trivial.
However, when Bai Ran looked at the copper piece in his hand, his face turned into a dumbfounded expression. Even if he could understand the words on it, would he dare to practice the demon cultivator's technique?
Besides, he doesn't lack any high-level skills now! The complete set of Xuanyin Sutra is still sitting quietly in his storage bag.
Thinking about it this way, no wonder the dark-skinned monk would trade this thing out of thin air. It is completely useless!
Bai Ran felt as if he had been deceived by a minor scam, and felt a little depressed.
Since the words on the copper plate were the unique inheritance of the demon cultivator, no matter how many human classics he searched, he would not find any clues.
From this point of view, there is no need to bother to understand the content in the animal skin book. It is probably also some kind of demon cultivation technique.
Bai Ran took a long breath, threw the two things into the storage bag with a gloomy look, and walked out of the stone room.
Bai Ran was naturally a little disappointed when his expectations failed.
However, he quickly adjusted his mood and prepared to leave this place and go to the abyss.
The matter of the Demonic Grass is the most important thing to him, and it is directly related to whether he can advance to the next level on the path of cultivating immortality!
After taking the Five Colored Balls, he felt that his cultivation aptitude had been changing for the better over the years.
Nowadays, although he cannot compare with those with extraordinary talents such as "Heavenly Spiritual Root" and "Foreign Spiritual Root", in terms of absorbing spiritual energy and transforming spiritual power, he is almost as good as the Three Spiritual Root monks.
The Heaven-Building Pill is truly well-deserved! It gives Bai Ran more hope in condensing the Nascent Soul on his own.
When Bai Ran came out, Wen Siyue was still refining the power of the medicine in the retreat room. It was estimated that she would not come out for two to three months.
Bai Ran did not disturb the woman. After thinking about it, he left several magic weapons and the formula for controlling the cave formation in her bedroom, and then left the place alone.
In the sky above the island, Bai Ran looked around, and after figuring out the direction, he turned into a blue rainbow and headed towards the abyss.
Along the way, Bai Ran encountered several monsters and killed them without any politeness.
Occasionally, he encountered human monks, but Bai Ran ignored them and flew past them from a distance.
A month later, Bai Ran finally approached the Qiyuan sea area.
At this time, he began to restrain his aura and began to hide his whereabouts.
This place is the lair of high-level monsters, so Bai Ran is naturally extremely cautious and doesn't dare to take any chances.
Sure enough, on the road below, Bai Ran frequently encountered various monsters, but finally his concealment skills were amazing enough, and he still managed to approach the sea area here without any risk.
A few days later, Bai Ran stopped moving forward. In the air, he looked at a small island vaguely visible in the distance, with a solemn look on his face.
The eighth-level monster beast's lair that Wen Siyue mentioned is on this island.
Bai Ran didn't dare to rush in boldly. If the adult Wind Splitting Beast was in its lair on the island, he would just die.
For the same reason, he did not dare to release his spiritual consciousness and take a cursory glance at the island.
So, Bai Ran found a rock out of the water far away from the island and set up a small magic array nearby.
I was sitting there practicing meditation while patiently monitoring the direction of the island.
When he was unsure of the movements of the eighth-level monster, he did not dare to act easily.
It's a pity that Nishang Grass has no effect on attracting monsters above level eight. Otherwise, if he used this grass to attract the adult Wind Splitting Beast, he wouldn't have to work so hard.
Now I can only suffer.
Time passed day by day, Bai Ran stood on the reef, watching the island from a distance, staying there for several months.
No monsters were seen on the island.
No matter how patient Bai Ran was, she couldn't hold back her anger.
"Could it be that the adult monster is not on the island, or the Wind Splitting Beast has abandoned its lair. The island is empty." Bai Ran became a little suspicious.
Another month later, there is still no result.
In desperation, Bai Ran finally made up his mind to enter the island to see what happened.
He can't really spend several years on this rock!
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just getting bright, Bai Ran gathered all his spiritual energy, and quietly drove the escape light and landed on the small island.
After months of secret observation on this small island, he already knew it well.
After flying to the halfway point of a rocky mountain, Bai Ran saw a dark cave entrance hidden by several huge rocks, just as Wen Siyue said beforehand, which was several feet in size.
Bai Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and after casting several auxiliary spells on his body, his figure suddenly disappeared into thin air.
After turning invisible, Bai Ran walked in carefully and slowly released his consciousness, constantly detecting the surroundings.
This cave is very deep and goes straight down. The further you go, the more humid you feel.
After a cup of tea, Bai Ran appeared at a corner and stopped, with a trace of nervousness on his face.
Bai Ran slowly closed his eyes and scanned the front with his consciousness.
After a moment, a strange look appeared on his face.
Bai Ran pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and walked around the corner.
Suddenly, a huge natural cave appeared in front of me. It was hundreds of feet wide and more than ten feet high.
A faint green light shone on the stone walls and cave roof, and in the middle was a steaming blue pool.
Around the pool, there are some weird vegetation growing.
Bai Ran's eyes immediately fell on the grass and trees, those few inch-long black grasses, and there was a faint look of excitement in his eyes.
This is the demon companion grass he has been looking for!
Only the demon-companion grass near level eight monsters is black, while below level eight it is gray.
When he looked blankly at the pool in the middle, the joy on his face flashed away, and his expression became solemn.
If the Wind Splitting Beast was in the cave, it would most likely be under this pool. Although he had already scanned the pool with his spiritual consciousness, the pool turned out to be unfathomable. He only scanned a small part of it.
, he withdrew his consciousness in shock.
Bai Ran licked his lips and did not hesitate anymore. After a flash of figure, his person appeared at the edge of the pool. Then he patted the storage bag with one hand, and a jade box appeared in his hand, and the other
His hand quickly reached towards the ground to grab the void.
