Chapter 26: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada
A disc-shaped flying machine, is it a flying saucer?!
Sha Bai froze. He asked, "So, we're underground now?"
"Yes, we're underground. And it should be in a deeper place underground. Grey Shadow replied.
Sha Bai was stunned for a while, and then asked, "Senior, since you saw me being fascinated by them in prison, why didn't you stop them?"
Gray Shadow smiled bitterly, "If it was the old man back then, it would naturally be easy to deal with these little ants. But now I'm just distracted, and my abilities are really limited. Besides, there must be a strong ape monk behind these ants, and my strength has not recovered now, and I will definitely attract the attention of the other party when I make a move, but I am afraid of provoking fire. ”
Sha Bai hurriedly said, "What should we do now? How can we get out of this underground?"
Seeing that Sha Bai was in a hurry, Gray Shadow seemed to be quite unimpressed: "What are you anxious about? Didn't you listen to the people of the Black Moon, this test is a good opportunity for spiritual cultivators to cultivate. ”
Sha Bai smiled bitterly: "Good opportunity? I don't see what a good opportunity it is. If you don't pass the guò test, you have to die, and it's very dangerous. Besides, didn't you say that the spirit stones they gave them contained demonic energy? ”
Gray Shadow smiled, and his voice seemed to be quite proud: "It may not be a good opportunity for others, but it may really be a good opportunity for you." ”
"Oh, why is that?" said Sha Baiqi.
Gray Shadow was silent for a moment and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, this so-called testing space should be a part of the Ancient Cultivation Realm, called the Xuanhuo Realm, and it is the territory of the Ancient Fire Cultivation Sect 'Xuanhuo Gate'. After thousands of years of changes, for some reason, this place actually sank into the ground. These people from the Black Moon Society can actually find this place to use as a space for trial members, which can be regarded as a bit of ability.
Originally, with your own words, you would not have been able to find this place anyway. Now you really have to thank them for bringing you here, haha. ”
Sha Bai was suddenly overjoyed: "Senior, it turns out that you know this place! Then you must know how to get out?"
Gray Shadow smiled, "Hehe, although I know this place, but thousands of years ago, this place was not underground. You asked me how to get out, and now I don't know. But you don't have to worry, since I'm here, you have a much better chance of getting out of here than the others. Moreover, as a monk, you should seize the opportunity to cultivate that can improve your realm, you have easily come to this Cave Heaven Blessed Land by chance, so why are you in such a hurry to go out?"
Sha Bai was stunned, "Cave Heaven Blessed Land, since this place is controlled by the Black Moon, I'm afraid that except for the aura that is slightly stronger than the outside world, the other cultivation resources have already been looted, right?"
Gray Shadow said, "Not necessarily. The Xuanhuo Realm is one of the several major cultivation secret realms in ancient times, and there are really many doorways in it. Some hidden places are difficult for ordinary monks to find. I guess the Black Moon doesn't know the true origin of the space here. They probably just found some remnants of spiritual energy in this place, so they used it for their disciples to cultivate, and took the opportunity to control their disciples. So much for. ”
Sha Bai nodded and said, "Okay." Then in this secret realm, I will act according to the guidance of your predecessors, and take a step at a time. Besides, wouldn't it be strange that Black Moon is encouraging us to compete for these Lingzhi mushrooms in this space?"
Gray Shadow said: "I haven't seen these Lingzhi yet, they look a bit like ancient fire Lingzhi, but they are not exactly the same. It may be of some use to fire cultivators, but it's not a great treasure.
The Black Moon will ask you to come and get the Lingzhi, I'm afraid the main purpose is to make you Terran spiritual cultivators kill each other in the test. The number of spiritual power cultivators of the human race was originally very small, and they fought each other and formed enmity, so it was naturally difficult to unite to deal with the ape race in the future. Black Moon's trick kills two birds with one stone, and it can pick out a monk with higher strength as a member disciple, and it divides and divides the Terran monks, which is very insidious.
If this kind of test is really held every ten years, I am afraid that many human monks have already lost themselves in this test space. It seems that although the apes need some Terran monks as subordinates, they obviously don't want too many Terran monks. ”
Sha Bai was stunned for a while, "Senior, how can you conclude that the Black Moon must be related to the Ape Clan?"
Gray Shadow snorted and said, "Using the spirit stone containing the qi of the ape demon to control the cultivators of the human race, this method has been used by the ape race millions of years ago, and there is nothing new.
The last time the ape clan attacked the earth, they also used the means of differentiation, and at that time, many of the cultivators of the human race were tempted by the spirit stone resources of the ape race and took refuge in the ape race, so the human race suffered heavy losses in the war.
Today's Black Moon, there is nothing new in the means, it is clearly controlled by the ape clan, and it is simply a copy of the rebel human race in ancient times. ”
Shabai rested in the hollow of the tree for about half a day. He didn't dare to use the spirit stones distributed by Black Moon to cultivate, just refining the natural spiritual energy in the environment. Feeling fully recovered, he walked out of the hole in the tree and continued to walk forward.
It took him almost three days to finally reach the border of this jungle.
Sha Bai climbed to the top of a tree and looked into the distance. Out of the woods, there are mountains in the distance. At the junction of mountains and woods, there is a small grassland.
A few hundred meters ahead, at the junction of the grassland and the dense forest, you can see a waterhole, in which a Ganoderma lucidum is blooming, and the red is very dazzling.
Sha Bai stared at the Lingzhi on the tree for a long time, hesitating whether to pick this Lingzhi.
After all, according to the rules of the Black Moon, after the test is over, if you don't have Lingzhi in your hand, you are doomed to a miserable end. Although Gray Shadow recognized that this was the Ancient Cultivation Realm, it didn't necessarily mean that he would be able to take him out of here. It may be a good idea to get a Ganoderma lucidum before anyone else.
After hesitating for a while, Sha Bai slowly slipped down the tree. He crouched on the ground, probing to the left and right, and then he was about to walk out of the woods with his legs raised. Suddenly, his brow furrowed, his body quickly lowered, and he fell into the long grass behind the giant tree, and quietly looked at the other side of the dense forest with his eyes.
Not long after, in the dense forest opposite, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy dressed in gray walked out with a probe in his head. The young man was black and thin, holding a short knife, with a vigilant look on his face. He looked around, then got up and tiptoed towards the reishi.
When he was about to walk to the side of Lingzhi, the young man turned around and suddenly shouted into the woods behind him, "Who is it? Come out! I see you! Don't hide!"
Sha Bai was shocked, thinking that the other party had seen him, but when he took a closer look, he couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, although this young man shouted loudly in his mouth, his eyes wandered, and he kept looking around, where was he finding the appearance of others, it was clearly just bluffing!
After the boy shouted a few words, he seemed relieved to see that no one came out behind him, and now he stopped tiptoeing, turned and quickly ran towards the waterhole.
