Chapter 1123: The Cave
Huaishan goes straight up to the sky, I don't know how high it is, and it is very difficult for us to go straight up now.
A few youkai directly blocked our way, and after I destroyed these youkai by us, the youkai behind us had already surrounded us.
The road ahead was blocked, and the back road was the same, and we were blocked by a group of delirious youkai at this time, and there was no way to escape.
So we're just desperate to fight these monsters to the end.
The flames shone out on the hillside, swallowing nearly a dozen monstrous monsters around them.
The aura of various spells and treasures shone here, and several youkai were split in two by the sword light.
At this time, other youkai also rushed up.
However, the main opponents of the youkai are not the rest of us, but the other ghosts.
The ghosts are probably the biggest enemies and the biggest invaders in this jurisdiction.
We are also intruders or trialists, and we are also taken care of.
Taking advantage of the time when the ghosts are entangled with these monsters, we rush in the other direction.
As long as we don't go up the mountain, we won't be fiercely pursued, and now we can't rush up at all, so we can only take this opportunity to retreat to the other side.
The closest place to us, and able to hide, is the place where the pig demon lived before, and the cave where the rest of us have held out for so long.
The monsters were busy defending the mountainside of Huaishan Mountain, and they were all banned, and they didn't catch up after we retreated.
The cave was extremely cold, and the further you walked into it, the more so it became.
Because of this, during this time, the Nine Palaces never approached the deepest part of the cave.
Wei Rubing is good at using spells such as cold ice, but even cultivators who practice exercises that tend to be cold can't go to the deepest depths.
Wei Rubing didn't have the same chance as me, and she hadn't been able to get a divine artifact like Fumu Fire, so relying on her cultivation alone, she obviously couldn't go directly to the source of the cave.
When we got back to the cave, one of the two remaining agents was wounded.
If this continues, not to mention me and other cultivators, these two sturdy ordinary people will not last more than a week.
The sound and vibration of the fighting outside the cave continued, and several ghosts flew in front of the cave, but it was as if they didn't see us at the entrance of the cave.
"That's how they are, once I'm in these caves, they can't see us. Wei Rubing explained, and then looked into the cave.
A few hours later, the fighting continued until the night passed, and the ghosts were driven down from the mountain as always.
The strength of these ghosts is not weak, and the number is large enough, basically boundless, but they still can't take down these delirious monsters.
After the sound died down, I reined in my mana and breath and slowly walked out of the cave.
The ghosts are scattered and nothing is left behind, but these monsters are different, their corpses fall to the ground.
I went outside and saw the youkai that were still alive, they were puppets, but they weren't dead, they were dragging the corpses towards the mountain.
Wherever these monsters went, caves opened up and turned into a cave, enough for them to enter.
When they entered the cave, all of a sudden, the entrance to the cave was closed, and there was no difference between it and before it was opened.
Not only did these youkai remove the corpses of their companions, but they also used demonic magic to carry auras and nourish the damaged woods and ground.
After a while, everything settled, all the monsters disappeared, and the mountainside of Huaishan looked no different from before.
These monsters are not only the guards of Huaishan, but also strive to ensure that Huaishan is similar to the appearance of their owners before they left.
These monsters can be described as conscientious, and this scene is probably not the first time it has been staged.
Huang Bawang and Lao Bai also saw this amazing scene, but we still don't know how these monsters have persevered until now.
There are only two places that can explain this answer, one is to try to reach the summit again, and the other is to figure out what exactly is in the cave.
Wei Rubing had already talked to us about how cold it was in the depths of the cave, and the same was true for the others.
So I decided to try again and see if there was a way to climb the mountain while these yokai were away.
We failed, and when I tried to walk up the hill, countless holes opened up in the vicinity and on the hillside, and there was a lot of demonic energy, and it seemed that if I had to go up, these monsters would come out and have a good 'heart' with us.
If we hadn't bumped into those ghosts before, we wouldn't even have had a problem getting out.
After I use the Ruoki Sword to slash the monsters, it will increase some mana for me, but those manas are extremely complicated, and I have to practice well before I can use them normally.
We're going to have to choose the second path now, which means I'm going to have to try to get to the cave anyway.
Before the action began, I first chose to cultivate for a while.
When I sat down cross-legged, it looked like I was cultivating, but in fact I had entered the Xuanxian Realm and recovered my mana through this small space.
After about forty or fifty minutes, I slowly opened my eyes, and the newly acquired mana still hadn't been able to complete the purification.
Even so, my mana has also increased a little, and my strength has increased a little.
Jiugong has injuries on his body, and several injured people have to stay, and it is a little inappropriate for me and Wei Rubing to act together, so I decided to go over and take a look by myself, and if it really doesn't work, I'll come back.
Wei Rubing's deepest journey into the cave was more than five hundred meters, and when she got there, the surroundings had become a passage of ice, and there was ice accumulated over an unknown number of years, and she could take it back to refining magic weapons by knocking off a piece.
If I can take it away, I guess I'll knock some down, but the Xuanfei World can't put the real thing, so I can only give up.
A red light appeared on my body, as if I was covered with a golden armor.
Then I walked towards the cave.
The dampness was getting heavier and heavier, and after a few more steps, I even heard a swishing sound in my ears.
When I looked back, the footprints on the ground were very distinct, for everywhere I walked there was a mark of melted frost.
At this time, the temperature around me is completely harmless, and I can hold it up.
So I quickened my speed and walked into it, and before long, the frost on the ground had turned to white ice.
With each step, a small crater appeared in the ice, and as I walked over, the temperature dropped rapidly, and the footprints were frozen in place.
