Zhu Yan and the others sensed that the active crater was nearby, and they couldn't help but feel refreshed, and they hurriedly decomposed the tiger king bones and put them into leather bags, put them on the back of the deer, and set off again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the way to the mountain, everyone couldn't help but be amazed, there was no trace of ice and snow on the mountain peak at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters. Moreover, the vegetation is lush and the birds and beasts are infested, which is almost no different from the hills and mountains in the south of the Yangtze River.

Zhu Yan speculated that this may be due to the heat dissipation from the ground and the melting of snow on the nearby mountain peaks, which makes the hydrothermal conditions here excellent, and the abundant vitality around this place is a unique advantage.

Everyone quickly climbed the hill, and there was an active volcanic crater opposite. I saw white gas rising from the ground, like cooking smoke. The smell of sulfur wafted through the air, mixed with the faint sound of rock crackling.

The second senior brother explained to everyone that this active crater is generally like this, the magma under the ground gushes up, and a large amount of water on the surface is evaporated, but it will not erupt soon. The world's most famous active volcano, Yellowstone National Park in the United States, has been bubbling white gas all over the mountains for hundreds of years.

When everyone was admiring the unique scenery of this crater and marveling at the creation of heaven and earth, some abnormal information suddenly came from Zhu Yan and Chen Lan's spiritual sense, which was in the direction of the crater.

The two of them hurriedly opened the spirit stove, searched carefully, and soon found the target. On a large tree not far from the side of the crater, a huge crow was gulping out the white gas coming out of the ground in a certain rhythm.

Zhu Yan and they were surprised to find out, where is this a bird? He is clearly a brilliant practitioner. The white qi that steamed out was full of rich heaven and earth vitality, and this crow was like a Taoist spit, absorbing the vitality at a terrifying speed.

Zhu Yan could even see that in the huge head of the crow, there seemed to be a dazzling and dazzling light cluster. The amount of aura in that light cluster was not even inferior to Zhu Yan himself.

"Sky Eye?"

Zhu Yan almost screamed, that light cluster was so similar to his Heavenly Eye, could it be that this crow had actually opened the Spirit Stove as well?

This discovery seems to confirm his previous conjecture even more, this crow on the top of Changbai Mountain can open the spiritual stove, so wouldn't other plants, trees, birds and beasts that have practiced for thousands of years also be able to cultivate and become immortals?

Zhu Yan suddenly realized that the so-called "ancients did not deceive", and all myths and legends often have the shadow of real life. The monkey spirits, cow demons, tree spirits, fox fairies, etc. in "Journey to the West" and "Liao Zhai" are probably not necessarily just virtual things written by novelists!

You must know that the reason why human beings can cultivate the Tao is nothing more than because human beings can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, and then they can pass through the meridians, open the spiritual stove, and finally realize the avenue of heaven and earth. How can these grass and trees not absorb the vitality of heaven and earth? Once their lifespan is long enough, why can't they open the spiritual stove or even the path of enlightenment?

It's just ordinary plants, trees, birds and beasts, just like many mortals, their longevity is limited after all, and before they can open the spirit stove, they have already died. Those who can cultivate to perfection are probably only the lucky ones among the few who are rare.

Like this crow in front of him, he is definitely a lucky existence. If it hadn't grown in Changbai Mountain, a place with extremely strong vitality, if it hadn't lived long enough, it wouldn't have been able to open the spiritual stove.

Zhu Yan didn't know that this giant crow was called a raven, and it was the largest crow in the world and the longest-lived among birds. It can survive for about 70 years at the longest in an environment with plenty of food, almost similar to humans. It is the only one that can live in this extremely cold and high place, and even the Himalayan mountain tops have its traces.

Moreover, this raven is also the most intelligent, it has a large head and a brain several times larger than that of the average bird. It is good at imitation, and can imitate various sounds in the environment like a parrot. It also has insight, has the ability to solve practical problems, and makes people believe that it also has a higher intelligence.

Zhu Yan didn't know that this raven was still a god crow in Manchu mythology.

The Manchu people, who have lived at the foot of the Changbai Mountain for generations, have been full of awe and gratitude for this crow since ancient times. In shamanic parables and Manchu mythology, the crow has always played the role of a guide, a protector of the forest, and a prophet of good justice.

For example, in the shaman sacrifice of the Hush Hali clan, it is said that the crow is the goddess of the forest, that is, the goddess of the forest sea, and with her, the hunter can enter the mountain safely. In the myth "Ubu Xiben Mother", it is said that the crow used to be the personal companion of the god Abu Kainduli, and died by eating black grass by mistake in the battle, turning into a crying black crow, flying around the Centaur Village, patrolling for people.

Although Chen Lan couldn't perceive the Heavenly Eye in this crow, she was also shocked by the speed at which it absorbed the Yuan Qi. With such a terrifying cultivation speed, I'm afraid even she can't do it herself. Therefore, it was not difficult for her to guess that this crow must have opened the spirit stove.

However, before Zhu Yan and Chen Lan could digest their shock, on the other side of the crater, the vision happened again. There was a large forest of bushes, and suddenly out of the grass more than a man tall, a golden monster emerged.

It was an extremely large monster with a snake-like body that was more than twenty meters long, but it had two pairs of sharp claws. Its head is also large, like a giant basin, with a slightly square top of its head, two horns, and many whiskers on its mouth, which looks a lot like a legendary dragon.

Zhu Yan didn't know why, as soon as he saw it, he felt an inexplicable irritability and disgust in his heart. He seemed to feel a familiar evil aura in this mysterious monster, just as he had when he had tried the black lines of vitality.

The mysterious monster seemed to be looking for something, and swam around at an extremely alarming speed, causing the surrounding earth and sand to tumble like flying sand and rocks. And with its breathing, the vitality within a hundred meters around it was instantly absorbed.

"Oh my God, what the hell is this?" This time, Zhu Yan couldn't help but shouted out, which made the second senior brother and the third senior brother inexplicably surprised.

"What's that?" The third senior brother was fine, but the second senior brother, who was anxious, asked on the spot.

Zhu Yan made a silent gesture, and pointed in the direction of the crater again, transmitting his discovery to the two senior brothers telepathically. These monsters and birds who know how to practice are quite spiritual, and if there is a slight disturbance, I am afraid that these people who are watching the drama will also sing on stage.

He didn't dare to be careless, and continued to check it with the eye of heaven. At this time, the mysterious monster seemed to have found its prey, and its huge body was as vigorous as a leopard, and it quickly pounced on the grass in front of it.

It was too late, and a red shadow flashed in the grass, vaguely like a halo, and it seemed to be a child in a red belly pocket, jumping from the ground in a hurry, and running to another bush next to it.

The monster could not allow it to escape, only to see the monster twist the giant, and a strong air flow suddenly shot out of its mouth, and it hit it right in the right place. Immediately, the red shadow fell from the sky, but soon disappeared without a trace.

The monster's sharp claws followed, grabbing fiercely in the direction where the shadow fell. Only then did Zhu Yan discover that in the place where the shadow fell, there was an old ginseng tree with a thousand-year-old lifespan, standing there helplessly trembling.

Zhu Yan's heart trembled suddenly, could it be that the child in the red belly pocket he saw just now was the legendary ginseng doll? He was about to rush out to save it when a black shadow suddenly swept through the sky and slammed down on the monster's body.

When he looked up again, he saw that the raven had appeared above the monster at some point, its huge, hard beak pecking hard at the monster's eyes.
