108. Trapped

It feels good to inhale the air again. Monks just hold their breath longer than ordinary people, and they can't live in the water like fish.

Lingyu was curious, what kind of place was this, it was obviously at the bottom of the spring, but there was no water flow, as if there was an invisible air shield to isolate it.

The light lit up, and Ah Bi carried a silk bag full of moonstones in his hand, illuminating the surroundings clearly.

"Look." Abi pointed to the depths of the cave, "What's that?" ”

Lingyu and Qian Jiale raised their eyes and looked up, only to see a corner in the small cave with a faint light, at first glance, it was no different from the fire crystals outside, however, they felt a different aura fluctuation, and a desire to burn.

Taking out the Night Pearl from his arms, Lingyu summoned the Kanli Sword and slowly stepped forward.

"This is ......" Under the light of the night pearl, Lingyu clearly saw that those glimmers were some scattered feathers.

It's also incorrect, to be precise, a feather, and some scattered fluff.

The feathers are about two inches long, and they are full of fire, as if they are composed of flames, but a layer of frost condenses on the surface. Ice and fire, in the eyes of mortals, are obviously things that cannot coexist, but they are perfectly condensed together.

The fluff scattered around is a small ball of fire, like a small crystal bead condensed by firelight, and the original appearance can hardly be seen.

"What is it?" Abi asked from a distance. She is a vine demon, and she is most afraid of fire, so she only dares to stand far away.

"Could it be ......" Qian Jiale moved, looking at the pile of feathers on the ground in shock.

"Senior brother knows what?" Lingyu looked sideways at him.

Qian Jiale swallowed his saliva, calmed down, and said, "I don't know, it's just a guess." He paused, "Zhurong Mountain is not a volcano, and it is said that those seniors can't find the source of fire, so." It is the fire of the sky, not the fire of the earth. ”

Lingyu realized what he wanted to say, and her expression gradually became solemn.

"But fire doesn't appear out of thin air, where there's fire, there's a source of fire." Qian Jiale looked at the feathers in front of him steadily.

“…… Senior Brother Qian is saying, the source of fire. Right here? Lingyu asked the sentence in his heart.

"Just guessing." Qian Jiale himself felt that this guess was too amazing and he was not sure.

Lingyu wasn't sure. After all, the flames of Zhurong Mountain were heavenly fires that the foundation building monks could not withstand, and they were several qi refining cultivators. It's amazing how easy it is to find the source of the fire.

Besides, the heavenly fire of such a high grade. How can they stand the fire?

The two of them were both surprised and secretly had a certain expectation, maybe they really guessed right? These feathers were so unusual that they had not even approached before they could feel the burning intent that beat warmly.

What's more, they had been cultivating in Zhurong Mountain for a few months. I have felt the heavenly fire here, and I can feel the essence of the flame on the feathers. It is very consistent with the heavenly fire of Zhurong Mountain.

Lingyu tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Is it possible, these feathers." Just a special product of Zhurong Mountain? ”

"Well, you're right." Qian Jiale let out a long breath, "In short, this is definitely not an ordinary thing. ”

He looked at Abi and smiled appreciatively: "You spirit pet, it's really rare. ”

Abi's eyes lit up: "Are you praising me?" ”

"Of course. Well, this is for you to eat as jelly beans. Qian Jiale lost a bottle of Yangyuan Pill and gave it to her, which was a reward. He used to think that Lingyu was too impulsive to turn back regardless of safety for the sake of a spirit pet, but now he feels that this impulse is worth it. He is a typical Cangming monk, and the same is true for thinking, a spiritual pet must have the value of a spiritual pet, and if there is no valuable spiritual pet, it is okay not to raise a spiritual pet - it is very expensive to raise a spiritual pet!!

He didn't know Lingyu's mode of raising Abi, which was no different from raising a handyman. Other spiritual pets have precious pills to eat, and there are special disciples to take care of, but Ah Bi does all chores, and even the pills only eat the cheapest Yangyuan Dan. Because the spirit jade has been compared, that Jingyuan bead is used well, and it is not much worse than other people's spirit beast pills, and she also borrows it from time to time to take the Jingyuan Immortal Book......

One day he knew that he would only burst into tears - he had known that it was so economical to raise a transformed spirit pet, and he would raise it too!!

Abi was pure-minded, praised by Qian Jiale, and got a bottle of Yangyuan Dan, so happy that he couldn't find the north. Yangyuan Dan is delicious, but unfortunately her owner is very stingy and only gives her a small bottle a month.

"Senior Brother Qian, shall we take it?" Lingyu asked, staring at the pile of feathers.

"Of course." Qian Jiale said without hesitation, "It's so messy above, we quickly took people away, so as not to be involved." ”

Lingyu nodded, prepared an empty Qiankun bag, stretched out her Kanli sword, and tried to pick the feather directly into it.

But she was wrong, before Kan Li's sword touched those feathers, Lingyu felt the heat attack, and almost wanted to melt the sword body.

No way! Those two words flashed through her mind, and she quickly backed away. Kan Lijian couldn't stand such heat, and forcibly accepted it, it would only be melted, this was her natal spirit sword, if it was damaged, most of her cultivation would be wasted.

"Senior Brother Qian, this fire is too powerful, my spirit sword can't stand it, I'm afraid that the Qiankun bag can't be loaded." The material of the Qiankun bag is generally the fur of the spirit animal, blessed with various runes, and it will not be damaged when it is idle. The problem was that the flame grade on the feathers was too high, and it was not something that the low-grade Qiankun bags of these Qi refining disciples could withstand.

"What is going to be done?" Lingyu's sword and Qiankun bag can't stand it, and neither can he.

The two of them thought for a while, but before they could come up with a way, suddenly there was a loud bang, and the surging air flow rushed in, as if the universe was turned upside down, and the entire stone cave shook violently.

Abi was defenseless and rolled out with a "grunt".

"Abi!" Seeing that the impact was violent, Lingyu grabbed her and quickly stuffed it back into the spirit beast bag.

"Senior Brother Qian, look?"

"Let's go out first!" Qian Jiale shouted, "It's important to save your life, you can take things whenever you want." ”

"Okay." Lingyu agreed without hesitation. No matter what, life is the most important thing.

The two of them were about to go back the way they came, when another great tremor came, and the water rushed into the stone path, almost breaking through the air cover of the stone cave. Lingyu saw that the air shield was constantly twisting under the impact of the water, making a sharp sound of air current.

After that, louder noises came one after another. Because at the bottom of the water, the sound was particularly dull, and they were in a stone cave, and the rumbling sound kept echoing in the cave, which was deafening.

What's even worse is that the surrounding shaking is incessant, as if the ground is cracked by a landslide.

Lingyu and Qian Jiale tried to swim out of the stone path, but they were always washed back by the current. The two tried many times, but they still couldn't resist the impulse.

"No!" Qian Jiale wiped his face, "I can't get out like this......"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a series of loud bangs that lasted for a quarter of an hour, and he saw the water rushing in, bringing with him a lot of rubble mixed with fire crystals.

When the shaking subsided, Lingyu and Qian Jiale were stupid.

The stone path they came in was blocked by rubble!

The two looked at each other.

"This ...... What's going on? For a long time, Qian Jiale let out a sigh.

How could Lingyu know? The stone path was blocked, and the shaking of the mountain stopped, so she simply sat down and thought about it carefully.

First there was a commotion in the fissure spring, and then someone shouted, "The ground is fissiding again......

"Senior Brother Qian, you once said that the Earth Crack Spring was split two years ago, so it is called the Earth Crack Spring."

Qian Jiale nodded: "Not bad." ”

"Someone shouted just now, the ground is cracking again, could it be that what happened today is the same as two years ago?"

Qian Jiale thought for a while, and finally said, "It's very likely." ”

"Then do you remember the last time the Earth Rift Spring appeared, there was a lot of movement?"

Qian Jiale was a little dazed, thought for a while, and then said, "I don't know about this." However, I haven't heard much news, so it shouldn't be big. He shook his head again, "I really don't know, two years ago, I was still mixing with Xiaojian Chi every day, where did I know anything about the Zhurong Mountain Crack, or after the Qi refining was completed, Senior Brother Liu sued me." ”

Lingyu also knew what state Qian Jiale was in two years ago, they had been together for two years, and Qian Jiale left Xiaojianchi only a few months earlier than her.

She thought for a moment and said, "If something is abnormal, Senior Brother Liu will say it when he sues you." Besides, so many Qi refining disciples came here to cultivate, the sect knew about it, and they didn't stop it, which means that they think that this place is not dangerous......"

"Senior Sister Cheng is saying that this ground crack shouldn't be dangerous?"

"Nope." Lingyu shook her head with a heavy expression, "I have a bad premonition, this time the ground cracks, I'm afraid it will be unexpected by the sect." ”

"What do you mean?"

Lingyu let out a long breath and said, "Think about it, in the past, in Zhurong Mountain, the grade of Tianhuo couldn't even stand the foundation building monks, only the Jiedan monks would come, are there many Jiedan monks?" ”

"Of course not." There are seventy or eighty monks in the Taibai Sect, which sounds like a lot, but the Lingcang is too big, just the Taibai Sect Mountain Gate Station, there are thousands of miles in a radius, these Jiedan monks either live in the cave, or hunt for treasures in the hidden place, and rarely appear in front of people.

"That's it. Only the monks of Zhurong Mountain will come, and there are no treasures worthy of a certain sect to occupy, even if there is a very dangerous earth crack, I am afraid they will not know. ”

Qian Jiale gradually understood, and his back was sweating: "You mean, you mean ......"

Lingyu sighed: "This time the situation is different from two years ago, Zhurong Mountain two years ago, there was no population at all, but now Zhurong Mountain has thousands of Qi refining cultivators. In the event of a dangerous ground crack, there must be casualties. ”

Qian Jiale sat down beside her and nodded heavily: "What you said is that even if the ground crack is not very strict, we all saw the crowding just now, and accidental injuries are indispensable......"

In many cases, casualties are not due to the severity of the disaster, but to the reasonableness of the response. So many people rushed to the middle of the earth crack spring, for fear that good things would be preempted by others, the ground crack just happened, someone must be squeezed down, if the ground crack happens, Zhu Rongshan's heavenly fire is mighty, and the immortal is strange.

"What are we going to do?" Qian Jiale stared at the stone road blocked by rubble, "Just waiting?" ”
