Chapter 24: Exploring the Flying Beast (6)
(f)
There is no change of day and night in this space, only they judge by their own perception of time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info However, as a cultivator, this kind of judgment of time is still very accurate.
In this way, the four of them turned on the retreat and fled towards the depths of the desert. Since the desert was surrounded by an open area, the situation that the divine sense could detect was easier and faster, and the distance was much farther, which also accelerated the speed of the escape. There was always a stretch of yellow sand with no end in sight, and nothing of interest was found along the way, and the three of them followed Hudrin.
However, fifteen days later, they didn't see any shadow of the demon beast, and according to Yu Ting's plan, everyone should return.
"Apprentice, can you still sense that powerful demon beast?" Yu Ting asked Hu Delin.
"Yes, Master. Hudlin replied, "And it's become a lot stronger." I know that we have reached the fifteenth day that we have agreed, or I will continue to go deeper alone, and the three of you, Master, will go back. ”
"This... Yu Ting hesitated, he wanted to accompany Hu Delin for a while, Lan Xiao only listened to his arrangement now, but what about Tang Kai?
Besides, Tang Kai's purpose this time was to find someone, so running around with them would greatly delay his time.
"Senior Brother Yu, Senior Brother Hu. Tang Kai suddenly spoke: "I also want to continue to go deeper and have a look, because... ”
He suddenly groaned thoughtfully.
"Senior Brother Tang has any thoughts, just say. Yu Ting saw that Tang Kai was a little strange, so he immediately asked.
"Because I have a sense of it, and my sister is also in this direction. Tang Kai raised his head and said, "This feeling started a few days ago, but I'm not sure, I'm afraid it's just a mistake in my heart." But it seems to have been a little stronger these days, so I want to go deeper. ”
"Oh!?" Yu Ting listened, his eyes showed surprise, and he didn't hesitate to say, "In that case, let's move on for a while." Lan Mei, what do you see?"
"I listened to Brother Ting. There was no surprise, Lan Xiao replied.
In this way, the four of them continued to fly deeper into the desert.
Five days later, Yu Ting suddenly stopped shouting at several people.
"What's the matter, Brother Yu Ting?" Lan Xiao asked with concern, once she saw anything unusual about Yu Ting now, her first reaction was to be afraid that he was thinking about something depressed again.
The other two also looked at Yu Ting a little puzzled.
"It's a little different not far ahead. Yu Ting thought about it for a moment and said.
"Different?" Tang Kai asked, "What kind of difference, is it dangerous? ”
In the process of exploring along the way, Tang Kai also noticed that Yu Ting's divine sense was powerful, although he was suppressed a lot in this secret realm, he could also detect about ten miles, which was not much smaller than Yu Ting. He thought that his divine ability was outstanding among the monks of the same rank, but Yu Tingcai seemed to be stronger than him in the early stage of foundation building, which made him also surprised and admired.
"I can't tell, it's probably an oasis. Yu Ting squinted his eyes and said slowly.
Yu Ting was using the divine sense in the core of the sea of knowledge to probe at this time, although it was not very clear, but the distance that could be seen was much farther away. Along the way, he alternately changed his inner and outer consciousness to pay attention to the surroundings, especially the situation ahead, obviously because everything had to be cautious, let alone this kind of place where the situation was not clear at all.
"Oasis?" Lan Xiao became happy when he heard this. It's all yellow all the way, and it's already exhausting, and if there is an oasis, it would be great. "Then let's go over and have a look!" Lan Xiao shouted excitedly.
"Well, but wait a minute. Yu Ting nodded, but he didn't look excited, but had a serious expression, and asked Hu Delin: "Apprentice, how are you feeling now?"
"It's a little stronger than the previous days. Hudlin replied.
"I also seem to be a little stronger. But what I can't say for sure may be psychological. Tang Kai also interjected.
"So be it. Yu Ting had an idea, so he said, "Now let's go around this oasis and see how you feel." But we need to make the consciousness markers a little bit denser. ”
"Oh, I see what Master means. As soon as Hu Delin heard this, he understood: "If the direction I sense is that oasis, then we have found a location." Especially Senior Brother Tang, because this is sure that he is not mentally responsible. ”
"That's right, Senior Brother Yu's suggestion is too good. Tang Kai also shouted excitedly when he heard it.
After a few hours, the four of them became extremely excited, because it was indeed as they expected, the direction that Hu Delin and Tang Kai sensed was the oasis that only Yu Ting could see. The oasis was like a magnet, and they circled around it like a metal pointer, pointing to its center.
"Since we're sure it's this oasis, let's go over, but be careful. Yu Ting nodded and said.
There is no objection to this.
Then the four of them were very careful and slowly fled to the oasis that could not be seen by the naked eye. After flying for more than 50 miles, I finally came to a green area.
Not only is it green, but it also makes them feel refreshed, because this place has a dense aura, and it is many times stronger than other places. What surprised them the most, especially Yu Ting, was that the center of the oasis was a small lake, and the surface of the lake was also thick with aura, which made people want to jump into the lake and swim in it immediately.
The lake is surrounded by green shrub vegetation, some with flowers and some bearing fruit.
"This... Everyone was stunned.
Of course, the most surprising thing was Yu Ting, because how did he feel that this spiritual lake was very familiar, by the way, it was like a spiritual pool in the Chixun Cave that had been magnified many times. If you continue to cultivate here, then you still have a glimmer of hope to improve your cultivation, but unfortunately this secret realm will be closed, and now there may only be half a year left, and you won't be able to improve your cultivation much at all, and more importantly, you still have to find Feihong Stone.
"Spirit grass, spirit fruit!" Tang Kai suddenly shouted excitedly, only to see him looking at a bush somewhere by the lake.
It turned out that he had discovered some good things, and it seemed that although he was not an alchemist like Pu Quan, he knew a lot, but after all, he had lived a little longer than the three of them, and with the resources of Luan Feng Sect, he naturally had a lot more knowledge than them. Yu Ting was not interested in alchemy, so although he felt extraordinary about these so-called spirit flowers and spirit fruits, he didn't pay attention to them, and the same was true for Lan Xiao and Hu Delin.
"Does Senior Brother Tang recognize these medicinal materials?" Yu Ting asked, "Could it be that they are very rare materials?"
"I don't dare to say, because this is the first time I've been to this secret realm, but based on my experience, they are all medicinal herbs that have been burning for many years. Tang Kai said excitedly: "If the Puquan you drove away sees it, he will definitely faint with joy." ”
"Really!?" Yu Ting was also excited, but at the same time, his face was a little ugly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Yu, I shouldn't have mentioned this person. Tang Kai realized that his words made Yu Ting unhappy, and hurriedly said sorry.
"It doesn't matter, it just means that he doesn't have such luck. Yu Ting smiled and said, "Senior Brother Tang, then collect these medicinal materials first, we will wait for you." ”
"You brought so many medicinal herbs, and I can't enjoy them alone. Tang Kai shook his head and said, "Let's divide it equally among the four of us." These things might be good for you, too. ”
"If Senior Brother Tang didn't know about these medicinal materials, we wouldn't have collected them, or you could just give us a little. Yu Ting said that he also knew that Tang Kai did this because he was afraid that they would think he was too greedy, and he would need them to take a strong action later. ”
"No, I can't do that. Tang Kai continued to shake his head and said: "I treat you all as friends, I can't monopolize the benefits like this, not to mention that I have to trouble you later." So let's divide it into three parts, and I'll take one. Senior Brother Yu, don't shirk it, nine times out of ten, there will be some of these medicinal materials that will be helpful to your cultivation and improvement, you must not miss it. ”
"Okay. Yu Ting also felt justified after hearing it, soaking in the spirit pool would have some effect, and the spiritual things that had grown around it for an unknown number of years should also have an effect. He nodded and said, "It's up to Senior Brother Tang." Why don't we go around the lake and take a look at the situation while collecting medicinal herbs, and it just so happens that the two of you will feel it again." Yu Ting then proposed.
Of course, everyone understands what Yuting means.
"Master, I'm sure that powerful demon beast is in the lake. Hudlin said.
"Well, I also sensed that my sister seems to be in this lake too. Tang Kai also said.
After they circled the small lake, they both made this determination.
Tang Kai also collected a large number of unknown flowers, fruits, branches, and root trees, took some of them himself, and handed over the rest to Yuting.
Holding these medicinal materials that he couldn't understand, Yu Ting was both expectant and depressed. The reason for being depressed is that it seems that he has to find that Pu Quan to help refine the pills he needs, could it be that after going back this time, he began to learn the art of alchemy and became permanent in the Danding Academy?
Forget it, let's get the matter in front of you first.
"In this way," Yu Ting collected his thoughts, nodded and said, "If Senior Sister Tang is really alive, then it is very likely that she is in this lake, and she is with a powerful spirit beast." One possibility is that they are trapped by spirit animals, and the other possibility is that they are trapped together. Either way, we'll need to go inside the lake and have a look. ”
"Brother Yu Ting, my divine sense can't penetrate deep into this lake, what about you?" Lan Xiao asked him.
"I couldn't look deeper, so I had to go down and check it out. Yu Tingdian replied.
Even if he used the divine sense in the core of the sea of consciousness just now, he couldn't go much deeper, and all he saw was a blue-green lake.
"Isn't it dangerous? After all, if we go into the water, our strength will be greatly reduced. Lan Xiao asked with concern.
"There must be danger, the apprentices have said it, it is a dangerous atmosphere. Yu Ting nodded and said, "But we do need to go into the lake to investigate." ”
"I happen to have a few water-repellent talismans here," Tang Kai suddenly said, "It can reduce the impact in the water, and I can use it for you." ”
"Oh, that's for the best. When Yu Ting heard this, he said happily: "However, the talisman is a one-time thing, and we may need to enter this lake many times." So why don't I go down and see how it's going, and you can wait for me up there." ”
"I'm going too!" Lan Xiao shouted.
"Sister Lan, the demon beasts below don't seem to be simple, I'm still going to see it alone, and my divine sense can probe farther. Yu Ting hurriedly persuaded.
"But we have two swords, so I'm relieved. Lan Xiao insisted.
"That's it, Master. Hu Delin opened his mouth and said, "Why don't I go down and have a look alone." Since it's calling me, I'll find it more easily, and maybe it's not so hostile to me. Besides, I have the ability to resist beasts, so I am definitely much safer than you. ”
"Well, that's fine. Yu Ting heard this, and also felt that what Hu Delin said was reasonable, so he handed him a few talismans with a movement of his hand: "These frog talismans are made of the scales of the frog tree, and they should be able to help you, because the frog is an amphibious demon beast, and the effect of this talisman in the water will not be weakened much." ”
"Yes, thank you, Master. Hu Delin nodded and took the frog talisman.
"Senior Brother Hu, be more careful, this is the Lanshui Talisman. Tang Kai also handed him two talismans with water patterns.
Hu Delin took the water talisman and nodded. Then he didn't hesitate, and with a movement of his mind, he injected a water talisman with mana. I saw that this talisman suddenly lit up, and the water ripples began to fluctuate, Hu Delin put it on his body, and the talisman suddenly disappeared into his body.
"Master, Master, Senior Brother Tang. Hudlin said to the crowd, "I'll go down." ”
"Be careful!" said everyone, with worried and expectant eyes.
Sure enough, with the help of this water charm, Hu Delin escaped into the lake without making a splash.
The three of them had no choice but to meditate by the lake and wait.
After half an hour, everyone was waiting quietly, and suddenly Yu Ting shouted: "Sister Lan, quickly sacrifice the flying sword and go to the lake!"
Lan Xiao listened, didn't say much, the blue duck sword immediately appeared above his head, and followed Yu Ting's swoop towards the lake, Tang Kai was also shocked when he saw it, and he also sacrificed his black and oily little gun and followed.
With a bang, the three of them were still on the way to the lake, when they saw a figure flashing in the water on the lake, splashing in all directions, and Hu Delin shook his body and flew out, messy and ugly.
"Master, retreat out of the lake and go to the ground. Hu Delin already knew that the three of them were running over, and hurriedly shouted.
Seeing that Hu Delin was a little embarrassed and running away, the three of them guessed what was going on, and without hesitation, they immediately turned around and fled out of the lake.
"Boom!" There was a huge sound of water, the lake seemed to explode, and a column of water several feet thick suddenly rose, only to see a huge demon beast soaring into the air, chasing Hu Delin with its teeth and claws.
"Bang!", and the beast pounced on Hudrin with an almost invisible speed.
"Poof!", Hu Delin spat out a piece of blood and flew out, but it flew out of the lake not far away.
"Apprentice!" Seeing this, Yu Ting felt uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly shouted. While flying out of the lake, the flying sword had already slashed over, and Lan Xiao's Blue Duck Sword also followed.
At this time, the three people who were outside the lake had already seen the appearance of this demon beast clearly, and they couldn't help but gasp. I saw that this beast was more than ten feet long, like a catfish, with four whiskers floating on its lips, but it had a long tail, which took up almost half the size of its body. The most peculiar place is that this strange fish also has a pair of large shark fins, after unfolding nearly ten zhang, as long as this shark fin shakes a fan, this strange fish is like lightning rushing forward, which is unguardable.
Judging by the situation, it must be a demon beast in the realm of the True Dan Stage.
"Huh!" saw that this strange fish opened its mouth, and several water jets sprayed over, but it was the flying sword that met Yu Ting and Lan Xiao, and it also met them almost instantly.
"Uh-huh. Yuting Zhihai suddenly felt uncomfortable, and hurriedly ran the divine thought to strengthen, and the Qingshen Technique was used at the same time, and he recovered fine. On the contrary, Lan Xiao was fine, it turned out that when these water columns hit the Blue Duck Sword, she had already felt the threat and the direction in which it was coming, so she ordered the flying sword to make a few moves in advance, and she could avoid the blow.
"Nineteenth move!" Yu Ting immediately shouted when he saw that his flying sword had just stabilized.
I saw the continuous movements of the blue language twin swords, first dodging the water column behind, and then flying towards this strange fish as soon as they got up and down.
"Eighth move!" Yu Ting then shouted.
The two flying swords made several strange movements, corresponding to each other, and flew up and down rhythmically.
The strange fish hesitated for a moment at this time, but then saw its sharp fish head shake, and the four fish whiskers suddenly flashed, in the eyes of everyone, it was really just a flash, and even Yu Ting didn't see it too clearly, he already felt that his Yu Mandarin Sword was entangled by something, and the speed immediately slowed down, and there was a pulling force that was dragging it. Lan Xiao's Blue Duck Sword was almost the same situation, but Lan Xiao had a hunch, so he hadn't been completely entangled.
Yu Ting was shocked in his heart, immediately increased his mana, and shouted.
"The eleventh move!"
"Twenty-third move!"
I saw Yu Ting's Yuyang sword shrink suddenly, as small as half a foot, and then jumped forward, dodging the entanglement of the fish whiskers, and after a few consecutive movements, it broke away from the strange fish and flew back to themselves.
The strange fish was strongly disturbed by the eleventh move of the Blue Mandarin Duck Trick just now after increasing the mana, and it stagnated slightly, leaving Yu Ting's flying sword behind. Then the two of them saw that their flying swords were at risk in close proximity to the monster fish, so Yu Ting used the twenty-third move to make the golden cicada fly back with the twin swords. Because by this time he had discovered that the range of the strange fish's whiskers was on its body, especially near its head.
At this time, they had already retreated to the outside of the lake, and Yu Ting considered that it was best to fall to the ground now, and he still had such a killer weapon of the magic circle to deal with this strange fish.
Just when the four of them fell to the ground outside the lake and waited for the battle, they saw the strange fish roll their eyes, looked at a few of them, opened their mouths and sneered a few times, circled a few times, and fell to the surface of the lake, and fell into the lake with a thud. When a huge splash of water splashes, the strange fish disappears, leaving only ripples on the surface of the lake.
The four of them looked at each other, this strange fish was quite smart, and he knew that he would suffer a loss if he left the lake and went to the ground, so he didn't chase after him.
"Apprentice, what happened just now?" After a while, Yu Ting saw that the lake was as calm as ever, so he turned around and asked Hu Delin.
"Master, Master, and Senior Brother Tang. Hu Delin's face was still pale, but he said excitedly: "I think I found Senior Sister Tang!"
