Chapter five hundred and forty-first into the hole
Hearing what Ni Xiao said, the man surnamed Huang was extremely excited and said: "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry down. The bronze-armored corpse has been staying here. It has obviously already gone in."
"The bronze-armored corpse who was seriously injured by us dared to go in, which shows that there is no great danger."
Ni Xiao pondered for a moment and knew that his junior brother was right. If the cave below was dangerous, the injured bronze-armored corpse would not be healed here.
He looked at his junior sister again.
The woman surnamed Yao said: "Senior brother, let's go in. The bronze-armored corpse was seriously injured by us. We must seize the time to pursue it. The power of the cold below is so pure. If it can recover most of the injuries, the previous attack will be in vain."
"
Ni Xiao then nodded and said: "Okay, let's set off now, but we can't go down blindly, we have to make some preparations."
Hearing this, the woman surnamed Yao patted the spirit beast bag on her waist, and a dark black figure appeared in front of them. Its body was filled with plump black muscles, and in addition, it also had a lot of cyan hair.
A stronger corpse energy emerged from its body. It was a refined corpse, with fluctuations around the middle stage of foundation building.
The woman surnamed Yao said with some pity: "Junior sister has used a lot of the cold power of corpse refining for so many years to practice, but she only has this one corpse refining at the foundation level."
"It would be best to use the refined corpse to explore this cave filled with cold power. Unfortunately, the other refined corpses in the hands of junior sister are only at the Qi refining level and will be affected by the aura of the bronze armored corpse, so they cannot be used as scouts."
The man surnamed Huang said: "It's enough to have a pathfinder like this. After we go down, I will also release Yin Spirit Rats to explore the path. It should be foolproof."
The woman surnamed Yao nodded, then controlled the black corpse and jumped into the underground cave. Then she closed her eyes and sensed it, and said: "Two senior brothers, there is a gray cave below with several passages.
I don’t know where it leads.”
"Although the cold force below is so strong that Junior Sister cannot sense the bronze-armored corpse, since that guy is injured and unable to suppress the corpse energy in his body, my corpse refining can definitely track it."
The man surnamed Huang said impatiently: "Okay, let's go down now."
Ni Xiao suddenly said: "Junior sister, don't you still have some corpse-refining silk? Take them out and place them near the entrance of the cave, just in case."
The woman surnamed Yao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then nodded in agreement. She took out a dozen gray hairs from her storage bag, pinched a magic formula, and let it spread nearby.
She understood what her senior brother meant. If a defensive circle was set up here, it would be too obvious. Instead, it was better to set up this secret method so that even if other cultivators approached, they would be able to notice it.
After the woman surnamed Yao finished setting up, the three of them jumped into the underground cave and disappeared into the stone forest.
…
About half an hour later, a burly man appeared out of thin air near the entrance of the underground cave. If there were immortal cultivators present, they would find that this man had no mana fluctuations at all, just like a mortal.
This man was none other than Lu Kun. He had previously disguised himself as an ordinary monk in the alchemy stage. Because he knew that Ni Xiao and others had discovered that he was following him, he simply let a few people ambush him to make these people relax their vigilance against him.
Although Ni Xiao's giant sword attack was powerful and shattered Lu Kun's pseudo-magic shield that he had snatched from other monks, the impact of the giant sword did not cause any harm to him due to his physical defense.
The powerful thunder and lightning power erupted from the giant sword, due to the lightning resistance of his hidden spiritual roots, only scorched the skin outside his body.
After pretending to be seriously injured and escaping, he spared a circle and used the hidden magic power of out-of-body cultivation and the magical power of hidden spiritual roots to hide the power of spiritual consciousness. With a simple invisibility talisman, he easily followed these three monks of the Nine Nether Gate.
.
As for the ancient prohibition of Yixiantian, he could see it with his golden eyes during the foundation stage, and now he can detect it easily, allowing him to move through the stone forest like a fish in water.
In the end, he witnessed with his own eyes several bronze-armored corpses with serious injuries, as well as the underground cave entrance that appeared behind them.
Lu Kun looked at this underground cave with burning eyes. He had heard the conversation between the three of them before and knew that there might be a great opportunity hidden underneath.
He murmured: "If we fight them head-on elsewhere, I'm not sure I can kill them all. After all, these three people have been in the pill-forming stage for many years and have many tricks."
"I don't have any magic weapons yet. I can't kill them with one strike just by relying on my physical strength. Several of them are Jiuyoumen monks. They are proficient in the art of blood escape and are extremely capable of saving lives."
A strange color flashed through Lu Kun's eyes: "But now, these people have entered the underground cave and cannot use the blood escape technique at all. If they fight me in a narrow place, even if they are in the late stage of pill formation, I, Lu Kun, am confident to kill them."
.”
Then he walked directly towards the entrance of the cave. The corpse-refining threads around him did not react at all, and he was not aware of the powerful magic power hidden deep in the bones of his body.
Lu Kun lightly jumped forward and fell down along the entrance of the cave. He dropped about three feet and landed lightly in the cave. No sound was heard from the soles of his feet and the ground.
He looked around and found that the surrounding cave walls were made of a kind of gray rock. If he probed with his spiritual consciousness, he would be bounced away by a strange force. Apparently, this gray rock could isolate his spiritual consciousness.
Lu Kun sensed the remaining mana fluctuations in the air and some claw marks on the wall, and knew that the three people from Jiuyoumen immediately discovered the effect of this gray rock in isolating spiritual consciousness.
They used magic weapons to attack and tried to extract this magical material, but in the end they gave up for some unknown reason.
Lu Kun did not attack the rock, but injected the power of spiritual consciousness at the peak of the mid-stage pill formation into his eyes, and carefully observed the gray rock with his golden eyes.
Under the influence of the golden eye magical power, he discovered that there were many silvery light spots in the wall, faintly blocking his golden eyes, which made Lu Kun understand a little bit.
As a disciple of the Yueyang Sect's Weapon Refining Peak, he could tell that this was an ore material, and the silver light spots were the most valuable parts of the rock.
However, in order to obtain the material that isolates spiritual consciousness, this gray ore must be refined in large quantities.
Moreover, judging from the attack marks of the previous people, it was very troublesome to collect this kind of ore even if it was a magic weapon in the elixir formation stage. They obviously discovered this, so they gave up.
Although Lu Kun was interested in this strange ore, he didn't have a sharp weapon at hand and couldn't collect it for a while.
He thought a little depressed: "Deal with those people first, and then look back and see how to get some gray ore away."
Then Lu Kun tapped the spirit beast bag on his waist, and a yellow figure flashed, quickly ran to his shoulder, grabbed his hair, and winked, as if he was very excited.
Without Lu Kun's reminder, the little monkey's ears trembled for a while, and then the monkey's paw quickly pointed forward. But when Xiao Jin saw three dark passages, the monkey's paw retracted again, looking a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lu Kun burst into laughter. Although Xiao Jin could hear the sound, he could only judge the enemy's position and could not know which passage the opponent was taking.
But Lu Kun has his own way.
His nose was slightly twitching, and after a while he showed a smile and walked straight towards a passage in the middle.
It turned out that he used his sense of smell, which was far superior to those of immortal cultivators, to distinguish the foundation-building corpse-refining corpse energy in the passage, so as to guide him.
