Chapter 254: The Corpse and the Scroll
In the traditional concept, the cave is a place where the gods live and practice, but in order to seek a beautiful meaning in later generations, people also call the cave where the practitioners live also called the cave. There is also a difference between the pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info the cave house, the rough cave house has fewer functions, and most of them are the residences of ascetics, so they may just choose a place with sufficient spiritual energy, and then dig a hole and move in. However, there are also some caves that have taken great pains to build, in which cultivators can not only meditate and practice, but also refine elixirs, temper weapons, and even cultivate spiritual objects. The former is not unusual, but the latter is a place where countless people are looking for robbery, and the legend of the Giant Treasure Secret Realm left behind after the fall of the powerful man comes from this.
At this moment, the cave that Ye Nuan found was barely the latter.
Why do you say reluctantly? Because there is no heavenly spirit treasure stored in this place, and there are no divine weapons left by the mighty, the entrance to the cave is narrow, and it is also a deep secret passage after entering. In a dark corridor, there are dense shade-loving Manman green vines, which look very desolate, without any artificial elaboration, and the level should be very low, but there is a spiritual spring in this place. What is a spiritual spring? There is a saying in the world that those caves and blessed lands will eventually form a life form after being washed by the spiritual energy and absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and the spiritual eye is the soul of the entire cave. There is the most abundant aura, and it is also the place closest to the power of the world's origin.
Practicing next to the spiritual spring, the absorption of spiritual energy is far more than double that of other places, and in the long run, it can also help the monk to remove impurities from the body, producing an effect similar to that of the pill of washing the marrow.
However, there are generally guardian beasts in the places where the spiritual spring eye appears, or some naturally formed traps, after all, encountering the spiritual spring eye or something is a kind of anti-heaven luck, based on the laws of heaven and earth, if you want to get it, you have to go through some tribulations.
Ye Nuan didn't actually pay attention to this cave at first, but the wood spirit monster in her body sensed it, and shook wildly and alarmed her, which led to the current situation.
To be honest, Ye Nuan didn't plan to delay time on the road, she had to do one thing seriously and absolutely without distraction, but the wood spirit monster hadn't moved for a long time after she entered the alien orc plane, and today's situation was the first time, plus it was her luck in the first place, it was a pity to miss it in vain, and besides, maybe she found the clue to leave this plane.
After thinking about it, Ye Nuan finally walked in cautiously, the purpose was naturally to go to the place where the spiritual spring was located. Although the spiritual spring is called a spring, it is actually a small hole that cracks in the ground, gushing out a rich spiritual energy, and after reaching a critical point, it condenses into a liquid state and turns into a spring.
Spiritual spring water is a good material for traditional alchemy, although Ye Nuan used the methods of the Wu clan and did not need to use gold and stone refining like ordinary cultivators, but adding spiritual spring water to the herbs can improve the quality of the elixir. The pills are from low to high, and the pills are at the human level, yellow level, Xuan level, earth level, and heaven level, and now the highest pill refined by Ye Nuan is also at the ground level, and the number of copies is not much, with the spiritual spring water is enough to help her a lot, so collecting the spiritual spring water is also very beneficial to Ye Nuan. The Xuan-level Cohesion Pill can transform the physique of a natural person, making the alien orcs of this plane known as a miracle medicine, and the effect of the heaven-level pill that spans two levels is estimated to be unimaginable. From the inheritance memory of the three ghosts, Ye Nuan learned that once the heaven-level elixir was refined, it would send a vision from the sky and draw out the power of Hongmeng, and Ye Nuan was looking forward to this.
Walking not far from the Lingquan Eye, Ye Nuan first wrapped a protective film around his limbs and vital points, and suddenly a light blade popped out of his fingertips and threw it out.
The dimly lit cavern was illuminated by that flash of light for a moment, but it was extinguished before the blade of light could reach the Spirit Spring. It was said to be extinguished, but the blade of light was not a candle flame, it was obviously devoured by other creatures.
Ye Nuan suddenly threw several light blades from his fingertips, striking them from all angles, and almost instantly, countless brilliant fluorescent lights appeared in the entire air, dazzling.
Naturally, these light blades were finally devoured clean, but it also allowed Ye Nuan to see the appearance of that thing clearly.
An unknown plant made from countless seemingly vigorous roots. Probably occupied this place for a long time, that thing absorbed a large amount of aura, and it produced a mutation, because of the mutation, Ye Nuan is now difficult to recognize its original appearance, naturally there is no way to know the habits and characteristics of the other party. However, it is clearly a typical example of over-aura, because it has absorbed too much to fully digest, and its branches and leaves are completely gone, leaving only bare/bare roots.
Seeing that thing appear, the wood spirit monster that had been released by Ye Nuan was excited for a while, and without waiting for Ye Nuan to speak, he flew out suddenly.
"Twitter......"
Just as it was about to pounce on that thing, the exquisite-looking miniature wood spirit suddenly paused and shouted at Ye Nuan, his eyes full of flattery.
Facing the other party's crystal expectant eyes, Ye Nuan couldn't help but smile, and waved his hand at the other party, signaling that he was casual. It's rare for her to see a small thing attack a foreign object, but this time she can take the opportunity to observe.
Receiving Ye Nuan's signal, the face of the wood spirit monster floating in the air immediately flushed, don't think about it, it's excited.
The wood spirit monster is originally generated by grass and trees, and the body of the thing opposite it is also grass and trees, and it has absorbed a large amount of aura, for small things, it is a perfect tonic pill, and there is no need to worry about the evil consequences of exploding the body because of too much supplementation, which is greater than the temptation of any spiritual spring water.
The monster made of countless thick wooden roots sensed the existence of the little thing the moment it appeared, and it was a kind of same kind of breath, which made it immediately alarm the bell. Even seemingly mild plants have all kinds of fierce and tragic competition in the dark, for the soil, for the water, for the sun, and they are more of a kind of spirit that gives birth to intelligence because of chance. Because they have the memory of being the enemy of their own kind engraved in their bones, only by fighting each other can they finally survive and obtain more energy.
When the little thing pounced on it, the monster screamed, and although Ye Nuan couldn't hear it, he could feel the sudden coldness of the air around him.
However, the little thing is not as soft and harmless as it seems, and the monster has just met it and has not yet fought with it, which makes it very surprised, after all, the monster looks basically on the same level as it, the difference is that the energy in its body is more condensed, and the other party is more restless. Seeing the slightly dodging monster, the little thing would not be ruthless, and directly poured out countless slender filaments emitting a glowing green light from the body, attacking the dodging monster.
Although the filaments that resemble jellyfish tentacles look beautiful and mysterious, they are very strong and seem to have an anesthetic effect, Ye Nuan shivered fiercely when he saw that the monster was caught in the filaments of the little thing's body, but he couldn't escape anymore. Then Ye Nuan saw that the little thing released the energy of his body until it formed a light film that completely covered the monster, and then incorporated it into his body step by step. The process of eating small things is very wonderful, just like watching a butterfly break out of its cocoon, but no matter how beautiful it is, you can't avoid that this is a killing process, and it is swallowed alive by life, and I feel very panicked when I think about it.
The story ended at the beginning, which made Ye Nuan a little uncomfortable.
But this story also convinced her that the most delicate things in nature often lurk the most dangerous killing motives, and she can't ignore the others because of her own bad luck.
However, when the little thing was eating, Ye Nuan also took the opportunity to get close to the spiritual spring. As a post-living body, the cave also has its own hidden consciousness, and if it does not touch a certain part, it will not reveal the place where its core is located. However, Ye Nuan did have some understanding of the spring, and at that time on Earth, the snake lady had taken her through the cave where several cultivators had fallen. After some means, Ye Nuan finally touched the spiritual spring and made it bloom in front of people's eyes.
The center of this spiritual spring is dark red, and from a distance it looks like some kind of strange fire, scattering the light around it, which is very beautiful. And its color gradation is also progressive, and it gradually becomes transparent at the periphery. And the spiritual spring water dripped down from its transparent edge, forming a small depression in the ground.
Ye Nuan turned his backhand, took out a slightly larger jade bottle from the divine seed space, scooped out a small jade bowl, and collected the spiritual spring water in the bottle little by little. Of course, she doesn't have to be so troublesome, she just needs to use her magic power to suck out the spiritual spring water and pour it into the jade bottle, but it's boring to be idle, if a cultivator can do everything with spells, then what else do you have to do?
Ye Nuan took most of the spiritual springs and stored them in the divine seed space, and did not let this place dry up, modern times pay attention to sustainable development, and cultivators should also pay attention to it. However, she also took some stones and dirt from the spiritual spring water depression. You must know that this kind of soil and stones that have been soaked in spiritual spring water all year round have changed in nature, and the aura is richer than many jade, and it can also become the raw material for alchemy in some pills. Maybe it's because of the huge storage space, Ye Nuan feels more and more like picking up rags, and when he sees something good, he stuffs it into the space, only to feel a little embarrassed.
After she meditated in the eyes of Lingquan for several weeks, the little thing completely devoured the monster, and Ye Nuan opened her eyes.
"Hiccup~"
When she noticed Ye Nuan, the little thing was trying to say hello to her, but she didn't expect the burp to pop up, which made it a little embarrassed for a while.
Ye Nuan smiled, but he didn't make fun, but turned around and walked directly to the corridor towards another cave. Although this cave is not very large, the area is not small, in addition to the core area where the Lingquan is located, there are many places that Ye Nuan has not set foot in. The reason why she didn't leave here just now was mainly to protect the Dharma for the little things, you must know that when digesting energy, it is like a monk's cultivation, and she generally can't be disturbed, otherwise not only will her previous efforts be wasted, but she may also go wrong and fall into the devil.
Because of the existence of the spiritual spring, even if there is no sunlight in this cave, the plants in this cave grow very densely, all of them have a big waist and a thick neck, and they look very strong, but most of them are weeds, and their appearance is similar to that of the earth, but Ye Nuan picked some of them and found that they had few medicinal effects, so he didn't pay attention to them.
Not enough to see what is seen later is not very pleasant.
In the other cave, there was not only no treasure, but also garbage relative to the environment, the corpse of an orc who had been dead for an unknown amount of time. Yes, the orc, not a natural man, nor an orc, is a real orc, with a human form, and a body that retains a part of the beastly form. The orc probably died for at least three hundred years, probably because of the smooth air and the nourishment of the aura, he did not corrupt, but as if he had been smeared with preservatives, just like when he died.
Ye Nuan frowned slightly, but still stepped forward.
The orc was obviously not inferior in front of him, at least the clothes on his body were far more elaborate than the orcs she had seen here, and even the priests could not compare to them. And his appearance is still handsome in the rough, and his skin is very good. It's just that there is a big hole in the chest, and the dark brown marks tell others about the pain of the master before he died. Even if he died, he still held something in his palm. Ye Nuan took a closer look, and it was a leather scroll made of animal skin, with intricate reddish-brown brushstrokes on it, but it was obviously different from the decorative pattern.
With a burst of magic power, Ye Nuan pulled the leather scroll out of the corpse's hand and unfolded it to look at it. She didn't understand the Orc's words, so she was blind when she looked at it. The only information obtained was that the words on the scroll had been written by the deceased before he had bitten his fingers, with a bit of scribbling.
Looking at Ye Nuan and frowning, although she couldn't understand the things on it, Ye Nuan had a hunch that she always felt that what was written in this leather scroll seemed to be very important to her. Sure enough, language is a very important thing, even if the pronunciation of the alien orcs is no different from the earth, but the words are self-contained, without systematic learning, they can't guess the meaning, it seems that she has to find a reliable alien orc to help translate after she goes out. The only thing she believed in in this plane was the two of Messi, who had been with her for a while, but unfortunately they were separated, and the others couldn't believe it, so she could only take some measures then.
Ye Nuan is going to leave this cave, after all, it is a living body, and there is a certain consciousness in the cave, but this consciousness does not communicate with people, and only obeys the rules of heaven and earth. It does not belong to the scope that the Heavenly Dao allows you to obtain, it will not open its arms to you, Ye Nuan went around and didn't find anything, so he planned to leave. On the surface, her harvest doesn't seem to be as much as a small thing, but she has also saved a lot of spiritual spring water, and she also got this leather scroll in her hand later, which is enough.
But after thinking about it, Ye Nuan was a little hesitant in her heart, today this cave is open to her, what about next time? This corpse seems to be a clue sent to her by the heavens, and it is not good to keep him here. But when she was asked to put her into the god seed space, she felt panicked. After being silent for a moment, Ye Nuan suddenly thought of the second volume of the Demon Breaking Heart Sutra that he had received before, which had a storage function. Just put the corpse inside, that thing is also biased towards evil things anyway, the corpse will not affect the scroll, and it will not pollute the space. After solving this problem, Ye Nuan and the little thing left the cave mansion and went to the central city of the alien orcs. (To be continued.) )
