"Many of them didn't make it down the mountain, but stayed here forever, and the Longquan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and we are relatively barren and more remote here, so few people come here. ”

Cheng Xiaoxi likes to listen to his parents tell these strange things the most, and he listens carefully, interjecting a few words from time to time.

There is no such thing as a marker, and when it reaches a certain height, it is collectively called the mid-mountain by practitioners.

And the middle of the mountain is not very far from Cheng Xiaoxi's house, and they came here after half an hour.

Compared with the bottom of the mountain, the spiritual energy on the middle of the mountain is much more abundant, and the grass and trees are also extremely lush, and it is easy to give birth to rare spiritual objects here.

"Let's go up to this height, you can't go any further, look around here, you all have to be careful, and call me at once if you find any movement. ”

Cheng Xiuwen was very cautious, he pulled out his sword and went elsewhere, Qin Rou's cultivation was slightly inferior to her husband, her face was a little flushed at this time, and her breathing was slightly short.

"Xiaoxi, if you see something you don't know, don't touch it at will, and don't get too far away from us. Qin Rou took a deep breath, explained carefully to her son, and began a carpet search.

"Let's go and chase the wind, and see what treasures we can find. "One man and one horse, cautiously looking around, chasing the wind is a little reluctant to follow the little master, looking left and right with big eyes, always thinking about how to dodge.

The vegetation here is very dense, and if there is any elixir in it, it can only be discovered if it is close, Cheng Xiaoxi lowered his head and searched carefully, and a wooden stick became his path-opening weapon.

Chasing Wind hung a few steps behind him, always keeping this safe distance.

At this time, higher up in Longquan Mountain, where the clouds and mist shrouded it, a huge spotted tiger was lying on the rocks, its eyes widened, and its mouth full of fangs looked hideous and terrifying.

At the top of its chest, there was a hollow the size of a bowl, the flesh and skin of it had disappeared, only the blood gurgling out of the hole, staining the large area of mountains and rocks under it with an eerie color, and the smell of blood wafting in the air, it must have just died.

I saw that on the head of the spotted tiger, there was a fist-sized turtle lying on its stomach, and the turtle was covered with blood. Its head turned around and looked down the hill, as if its small eyes could see through the clouds and see the teenager moving below.

Cheng Xiaoxi was refreshed and full of energy, he was looking for it with anticipation, not knowing that there was a turtle watching him from a high place, there were clouds and mist in the middle of the mountain, and the visible distance was only a dozen meters, not to mention him, even Cheng Xiuwen was here, he definitely couldn't see anything.

Unbeknownst to him, while he and his parents were going up the mountain, the turtle had easily killed an adult spotted tiger!

He didn't know that this turtle was quite familiar to him, because just a few days ago, he had stolen his father's spirit worm to feed it!

Two hours have passed, he has searched for hundreds of meters around, very unexpectedly, he has not gained anything, Longquan Mid-Mountain is not as magical as his parents said, and all the rare spiritual objects seem to have disappeared, and the only discovery is only a few common medicinal herbs.

A moment later, Cheng Xiuwen walked over from the other side, holding a bag in his hand, which contained two spirit fruits and a few relatively rare elixirs.

Qin Rou also came over, and unsurprisingly, she also made no gratifying discoveries.

"Brother Wen, it seems that there have been changes on this mountain, in previous years, these locations would definitely give birth to rare elixirs, but now they are all gone, the silence here is terrifying, and even the sounds of beasts and birds have disappeared. Qin Rou said as she threw a small stone in her hand to Cheng Xiuwen.

"This iron essence stone is not bad, and it can make a very good sword embryo. Cheng Xiuwen took the stone, tossed it lightly, and then put it away.

"Rou'er, you and Xiaoxi go back first, and then I'll go to a higher place to look carefully. With that, Cheng Xiuwen turned around and walked towards the mountain, and the strange pressure also increased, making his pace become slower and heavier.

"Although the exotic beast has disappeared, the pressure has not been alleviated at all, how can I feel more powerful than before. Cheng Xiuwen used his spiritual power with all his strength and struggled to go higher.

Driving spiritual power with all his strength for a long time will definitely have a great loss on the cultivator's cultivation, in order to be able to resist the increasing pressure, this is the only feasible way, and after a while, he disappeared into the thick mist.

"Let's go, creek, let's go home first, your father will be back in a moment." Qin Rou took Xiaoxi's hand, and with the other hand, she was holding the wind, and turned around to walk down the mountain.

"Knock~~knock~~~Whoa....... ”

But just as the mother and son were about to go down the mountain, there was a sudden movement from the high distance, and the mother and son hurriedly turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from, but they couldn't see anything else except for a haze.

The two of them did not leave, and the voice became clearer and clearer, as if it was very close, until they could see it clearly.

I saw a bright yellow orb, rolling down the hill, not very fast, sometimes crashing into the trees along the way, sometimes hitting the rocks growing in the dirt, bouncing back and forth to change the course countless times, and finally came to a steady stop at the foot of the stream.

"Mother, look, it's so big!" Lowering his body slightly, Cheng Xiaoxi looked at his feet in surprise, only to see that the Lingyuan was dark yellow in color, almost the size of a fist, crystal clear, and there was a faint halo around the beads, he scratched his head, and he didn't know whether to pick it up or not for a while.

"The spirit element of the rock python is green, and it is several times smaller, this spirit element must not be the rock python, looking at this color and size, I am afraid that the deity will be a more powerful beast. ”

Qin Rou was suddenly surprised, such a divine object should be priceless.

Whether it is a cultivator or a fierce bird or beast, they will definitely regard it as a treasure, and will never drop it from the mountain, and it just happens to roll to the foot of the stream, I am afraid that it is not as simple as a coincidence.

The mother and son glanced at each other, and their eyes invariably looked at the mountain, but the wind-chasing war horse lay on the ground, bowing its head towards Lingyuan, its body trembling, very afraid.

In the depths of the clouds, the turtle had left the head of the spotted tiger and was lying on a rock jutting out of the cliff, but its small body was like a peerless emperor, looking down at the two people below the mountain lonely, motionless, and did not know how it got here.

After a while, Qin Rou didn't notice anything, and the mountain was still as peaceful as it was at the beginning, so she turned to look at the spirit yuan again.

Cheng Xiaoxi didn't look at the spirit yuan again, and looked at the mountain intently, he felt a strange feeling in the dark, as if something was peeking on him in the clouds, and the feeling became more and more intense, as if he had seen through the whole body around him.

Suddenly, a gust of wind arose from an unknown place, so abrupt that for no reason, the flowers and grass broke where the wind passed, and even the bark of the trees was peeled off.

Countless stumps and gravel were swept up by the wind and rushed towards him, Qin Rou was just about to protect his son, but the wind suddenly separated, letting the two of them spin around the mother and son.

The wind became stronger and stronger, making a "whirring" sound, and more branches, leaves, earth and stones joined in, and soon, the two of them were completely covered.

From a distance, it looked like a huge, spinning egg, trapped inside the mother and son.

The wind speed was still intensifying, and there was no intention of stopping, Qin Rou couldn't open her eyes, she could only hold her son's hand tightly, Cheng Xiaoxi still maintained the posture just now, and there was no movement.

"Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you, why are your hands so hot?"

At this moment, Qin Rou noticed that something was wrong, the intersection of her and her son's palms became hot, and she didn't care about her doubts, because the temperature was still rising, and she was anxious and uneasy, but she didn't respond to her son after pulling her son a few times.

I saw that the skin of the stream became bright red and hot, like the red-hot iron in the furnace, and even the surrounding grass and trees and the ground under their feet became dry and yellow, and quickly lost their vitality.
