Chapter Twenty-Four: The Black-robed Monster
After three days of travel, Ling Yuehan and his entourage finally arrived at the entrusted destination. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
When you reach the depths of the pine shadow forest, the distance between the pine trees is nearly ten meters away. Therefore, the color that catches the eye is far more open than before, which makes people feel depressed.
I saw that among the thousands of pines, there were potholes of different depths on the mud from time to time, but they were caused by the growth of tree roots. And in every pit, there may be a refining jade buried in it.
It is rumored that the reason why the jade of the refining realm exists here is because of the peculiar varieties of pine trees in the forest. Over the years, they do not exceed 10 metres in height, but instead store nutrients and hide them underground.
And its storage is buried in the soil in the form of refining jade. However, the Refining Realm Jade is very common. Only next to trees that are more than 100 years old can you find them.
In view of the efficacy of the Refining Realm Jade, even though the Pine Shadow Forest is mysterious and dangerous, there is still an endless stream of people who come here to try their luck.
This is also because, among the many ways to obtain the Refining Realm Jade, the Pine Shadow Forest is already the least demanding.
I saw Zhang Chuqiao pinching his fingers with both hands, and used his qi blade to open the thirty-fourth mud pit, but when he glanced inside, it was empty, and he couldn't help puffing out his cheeks and sighed: "This time it is also empty, how difficult is it to find the Refining Realm Jade." ”
He glanced back and saw Liu Wanqing standing on the tree, forming a thicker purple qi than usual, and probing into several holes, but the speed was faster.
Seeing her dig out a jade with a whole body of turquoise and about the size of two fingers from the pit, she couldn't help but shout, looking very excited: "Xiao Qing's shadow silk is really extraordinary, and it doesn't take much effort to find three pieces of refining jade." ”
The three of them got along for a few days, and they became more familiar than when they first met, so they told each other their ages and called each other by other names. Among the fefteen-year-old Liu Wanqing, the youngest. And Ling Yuehan is three months longer than Zhang Chuqiao, but he is also sixteen years old.
Liu Wanqing heard his voice from a distance, and also pointed at him and smiled at him. And Zhang Chuqiao's desire to win is quite strong, and he doesn't want future generations, so he also lifts his spirit and explores the undeveloped pits.
While he started digging, he was thinking in his heart: "Not long after the moon cold arrived, he said that he would go farther away to search alone, but I don't know what he has gained?" However, knowing that Ling Yuehan's ability is not weak, he is not worried.
The air blades and purple qi rose and fell one after another, crisscrossing and crisscrossing one after another, breaking through one pit after another, adding a few points of vitality to the silent woods.
And Ling Yuehan was in the forest about a kilometer away from the two of them at this time. I saw his eyes blazing, slowly sweeping through all the pits. There will be a slight pause every time the area is about 30 meters checked.
After a while, however, he stopped on the flat surface of the dirt, then hooked his hands and leaned over to grab it. Every time his claw fell, he dug up a pile of dirt and threw it aside.
After a few breaths, the originally flat soil turned into a bumpy and uneven hole, becoming a hole about one meter deep. Beneath the earth, there is a jasper hidden in it.
When the jasper caught his eye, Ling Yuehan grabbed it, put it in his arms, and silently calculated: "It took almost two hours to find the twenty-seventh piece of refining jade, but the return is extremely high." "Touching the things in my arms is also very satisfying in my heart.
With the help of the green power, Ling Yuehan was able to know if there was jade hidden under the mud before he even started, which was extremely convenient. When he searched, he was also very glad that he had this ability.
At this time, he didn't know that Zhang Chuqiao and his subordinates had stopped, and they were so busy that they were sweating, so they just found a few pieces.
Since there was this secret method, Ling Yuehan didn't need to bother more about finding jade, so he carefully looked at the surrounding environment and secretly thought about the matter of the Pine Shadow Bead.
"Since the first day, we haven't encountered any pine demons, but we can't find the pine shadow beads again." He touched the green bead in his bosom and thought, "Even if I put it on the soil again and look at it the next day, there will be no green light." Come to think of it, every pine shadow bead is run by the power of the pine demon. If it is exhausted, it will be necessary to find another pine demon in order to continue its strength and continue to walk towards the place where it is guided. ”
I saw that his eyes were deep, revealing a bit of calm and calm: "Ever since I met the people of the Shattered Star Tower, I have felt watched from time to time. Thinking about Liu Kong, he is not a good man and a woman. If he dares to do it, I will not show mercy. Then he thought of his two companions: "However, Chu Qiao and the others are not good at covering up, but they should not be informed for the time being, so as not to be on guard against the enemy." ”
When the thoughts in his heart were turning, he dug out another piece of refining jade in his hand, making up the number of twenty-eight.
As he was about to continue his action, there was a scream from the pine forest behind him, but it was the same as what he had heard in the middle of the night.
As soon as the sound entered his ears, Ling Yuehan immediately used his strength under his feet and rushed towards his direction. In a few ups and downs, the person has landed at the source of the sound.
I saw a thin and shriveled back, standing next to the pine tree, covered with pine leaves, it was the long-lost pine demon.
However, instead of looking at Ling Yuehan, it confronted a black-robed guest in front of it. The black-robed guest, dressed in black, wrapped his whole body in the robe, but his gender and appearance could not be seen.
Without waiting for Ling Yuehan to make a move, the man condensed a cold spear of white mist from his hand and shot at the body of the pine demon. Wherever the ice spear passed, everything was covered in a thin layer of frost.
The next moment, several thick branches suddenly appeared on the ground, intertwined and overlapped, sealing the way of the ice spear. The ice spear then slammed into the tree shield, condensing it into ice.
Seeing that the attack could not reach his body, the pine demon rushed towards the pine tree next to the black-robed guest, intending to fight back through the cover of the trunk.
But the behavior of the pine demon is very obvious, how can that person not see its purpose? I saw that the cold air in his hand was rising, and when he pressed it to the ground, he formed an ice path about two meters wide on it, and went straight from the mud to the feet of the pine demon.
Seeing this, the pine demon formed a large intertwined and complex net based on the roots of the tree at his feet, and then jumped towards the tree.
However, what the black-robed guest was waiting for was the moment it jumped up. I saw dozens of blue lights as thin as silver needles flashing, and dozens of holes were opened in the pine demon's body.
Those holes, small at first, spread in all directions, freezing the pine demon into a humanoid ice puppet. In the next second, another ice spear followed, and it was smashed into pieces, and there was no way to recover from it.
Seeing the power of that person, Ling Yuehan hid behind the pine tree, and was also very afraid in his heart: "This person uses the ice method, and he is extremely skilled. Judging by the fierceness of its offensive, it is at least a realm cultivator of more than six ranks, and meeting with the elders of the Flowing Wind Pavilion should not be underestimated. ”
After killing the Pine Demon, the man walked towards his body, looked at it for a moment, and then turned away. Before turning around, he glanced at Ling Yuehan's place before leaving silently.
Seeing this, Ling Yuehan knew that the man had already seen through his side, but seeing that he didn't say anything, he also complied with his wishes and remained quiet.
But he thought in his heart: "That person doesn't seem to know the secret of the pine demon, I can leave a mark here, and go here tomorrow to find the pearl." ”
Ling Yuehan glanced at the red light on his hand, left a shallow mark on the tree in front of him, and then walked towards the place where Zhang Chuqiao was.
