One year is a short period of time for a monk with better qualifications in the middle stage of Qi refining stage, and the basic skills can barely advance to one level. However, for a monk in the foundation building stage, one year is very short, and can only make some progress in mana.
But Lu Kun and the others felt that this year had passed very long. Ever since Zhao Qingtian came back with the wanted news a year ago, they had become more cautious and would change places if there was any slight movement near the cave.
After that, every once in a while, a person will be sent out to check the news and see the development of the Demon Spirit Sect and the search of Luzhou by casual cultivators.
As time went by, the casual cultivators in Luzhou gradually felt that the Yueyang Sect disciples who were wanted by the Demon Spirit Sect should have fled to other states, and many persistent casual cultivators went to other states to look for them.
This reduced the number of casual cultivators staying in Luzhou.
On this day, in the Lingming Demon Valley deep in the Lingming Mountains, there were three immortal cultivators standing side by side, two men and one female. In front of them was the exit passage of the Lingming Demon Valley.
The two men were both middle-aged men, somewhat similar in appearance, and both wore black robes.
The woman on the side was wearing a long white dress. She was a middle-aged woman with a rather ugly appearance. Her face was cold and she exuded a biting chill.
Near the three people, there were some signs of battle. Five corpses were lying on the ground in a mess. Two of the corpses were extremely stiff, and there was even a little frost on their robes, as if they had been frozen to death.
The other three's lifeless eyes were all bulging outwards, and their mouths, noses and ears were bleeding, as if their internal organs had been exploded with huge force.
Suddenly, one of the middle-aged men looked at these corpses and said in a clear voice: "Second Senior Brother, I'd better burn these corpses with Yuanhuo."
"If those monsters are not interested in these corpses, Ken will be suspicious if the monks who come in next time can see that these people died due to brute force."
"After all, in the wanted list, the Demon Spirit Sect Master's fighting method of body training was clearly explained. These people also showed some doubts when they saw our full fighting posture, so we had to send them away.
Silence them all."
Another middle-aged man looked at the corpse with these words, an ugly smile appeared on his stiff face, and he muttered: "It's better to use Yuanhuo to extinguish it. The corpse of an immortal cultivator is different from that of a mortal. It is not as easy to decay."
.”
Seeing the red flames coming out of the hands of the man who spoke before and burning the five corpses to ashes one by one, the middle-aged man remembered something.
He turned slightly pale and muttered to himself: "Senior Brother Qin said that there are many powerful zombies in the land of death, which are all mutated from the corpses of immortal cultivators."
"In the future, if you want to destroy your opponents, you should burn their bodies to ashes."
When the woman on the side heard this, she showed a bit of disdain and said coldly: "That's because there is mysterious death energy in the place of death, otherwise the corpse of the immortal cultivator would never mutate."
"Well, let me tell you Xue'er, I found that your IQ is almost catching up with your brother and me."
Seeing the woman's expressionless face, the middle-aged man shook his head and continued to mutter that it was either a "zombie" or a "white bone". This shows that Qin Yushu has indeed dealt with many things in the Land of Death with them.
The man with the clear voice before came back, frowned and said: "Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister, there must be many monks outside the valley in a while. If they see only the three of us coming out, they will definitely launch a sneak attack. How will we deal with it then?"
?”
"Second Senior Brother" sneered: "What should we do? Hehe, according to Master's instructions, we successfully used the demonic energy here to break through the bottleneck of cultivation. Junior Brother, you and Xue'er have both reached the late stage of Qi refining, and I
Then you have reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining."
"We only need to use conventional spells with late-stage mana and the power of magic weapons to resist the group of people outside. And junior brother, don't forget that the senior brother is in the nearby mountains outside."
Then he showed a bit of chill and said: "If there are more enemies, senior brother will come over and wipe out everyone."
It turns out that these people are Zhao Qingtian, Yuxuan and Zhao Xueer.
Three months ago, all the demonic Qi of Fusion in Qin Yushu's body had dissipated, and he had also mastered the Vajra Technique to the point where he could completely control his facial muscles and change his face.
Several people also planned to set off and pass through Qingzhou, Cangzhou and the very dangerous place of death according to the plan. However, after Lu Kun looked at the progress of their body-refining skills, he suddenly asked them to come to this Lingming Demon
Stay in the valley for three months.
It is said that the demonic energy here played a great role in the breakthrough of the body refining technique, and at the same time, he taught them the demon-inducing technique developed by him and Xiaojin.
If they advance further in their cultivation, it will be easier for them to deal with danger later.
Three months ago, Zhao Qingtian reached the bottleneck of the eleventh level of Qi refining, while Zhao Xueer, with the help of the foreign treasures in his body, made rapid progress in strength. In more than half a year, he went from the middle stage of Qi refining to the ninth level of Qi refining, catching up with everyone.
I went to Yuxuan, who had practiced a lot earlier.
Sure enough, as Lu Kun said, the three of them broke through the bottleneck in the Demon Valley. Yu Xuan and Zhao Xueer reached the tenth level of Qi Refining, and Zhao Qingtian also broke through to the twelfth level of Qi Refining.
Just as a few people were talking, a breath suddenly rose into the sky from the center of the Demon Valley, and a strange wave spread outward.
The yellow mist in the exit passage shook slightly and began to float upward. Zhao Qingtian and the other three looked at each other, each summoned a defensive weapon to surround themselves, and then walked towards the passage.
After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the passage. Zhao Qingtian's spiritual consciousness was the most powerful. He glanced outwards and knew the situation outside well. A somewhat disdainful smile appeared on the face of a middle-aged man.
Zhao Qingtian summoned two high-grade magic weapons, and Zhao Xueer on the side waved his hand, and five or six ice blades appeared in front of him and rushed outward together with the two silver giant hammers thrown by Yu Xuan.
Then there was a fierce exchange of magic weapons at the entrance of the Lingming Demon Valley, and various curses were heard. After just a few breaths, a flying boat magic weapon rose into the sky and headed in one direction.
Fly away.
A group of casual cultivators were left looking at each other, but they ignored these people and continued to wait at the entrance. As time passed, no one came out again, which made these people feel a chill.
"Those three people have unfamiliar faces. They look like casual cultivators, but such powerful casual cultivators should be able to enter the sect."
"Maybe it's a family disciple from another state. The family disciples are much more powerful than us."
"You said that their strength and magical weapons are relatively powerful. Could it be that they are wanted disciples of the Yueyang Sect?"
"None of the three of them used magic to change their faces. They are real faces. They are definitely not wanted people. However, they were the only ones to escape from this trip to the Demon Valley. Could it be that there are more high-level monsters in the Demon Valley."
Not to mention the random speculations of these casual cultivators, Zhao Qingtian and the others landed on the ground after flying for a while. Zhao Qingtian called out a few times, and not long after, a small yellow monkey sprang out of the woods and quickly jumped on.
Flying boat.
"Zhizhi!" The little monkey made a simple gesture, and the old god shook his head on the ground.
The little yellow monkey's action made Zhao Qingtian and the others breathe a sigh of relief, and then they flew in a certain direction.
