Demon energy is not an aura and does not appear for no reason. Since you feel the demonic energy, it means that there are monsters nearby.

Looking back at the sailors who were still trying to pull the cable to secure the battleship, Tianyou did not say anything, but found the captain and asked them to repair the damaged hull as soon as possible, and then said that he wanted to go to the island and go around.

Of course, the captain couldn't restrain Tianyou's actions, and after he refused to send someone to follow, he didn't insist anymore, but agreed on the emergency response and went back to concentrate on directing the repair of the hull.

They landed ashore with Qi Xiaomei, and it wasn't until they were far away from the ship that Tianyou asked Hu Niu: "Where did the breath come from?"

Tiger Girl shook her head. "I don't know. It seems to have been, and it seems to have not. I'm not sure. Maybe I'm mistaken. ”

"No, there really is. Hu Qingxuan suddenly spoke.

Tianyou did not doubt Hu Qingxuan's words. Hu Niu alone may have made a mistake, even Hu Qingxuan felt it, so it is unlikely to be an illusion.

"Let's go around and see if we can find anything. Tianyou said and looked up at the moss-covered ruins around him, "This place is very similar to the ruins of the fallen Heavenly Palace, maybe it is the bones of the demon clan left over from the great war." Because of its age, the demonic aura is so weak that it is almost imperceptible. ”

The bones of the corpse were stuck in the fallen Heavenly Palace Ruins and could not be removed, and they almost pitted Tianyou. This ruin hangs lonely overseas, and there is no one from Zixiao Palace to clean it up, so it stands to reason that there are more bones left. But it's been so long, unless it's a big demon king like Cangming, the corpses of ordinary monsters should have been shattered into slag by the wind and sun and the green plants everywhere. can still leave a breath, I'm afraid this was at least a demon king before his death.

In any case, all that can be felt now is a faint trace of demonic energy, and it is not even possible to judge the direction based on it. God bless them, all they can do is walk around first and have a look.

Unlike naturally formed islands, this island is likely to be part of the Heavenly Palace in its entirety. In other words, it was not the fragment of the Heavenly Palace that fell on the island, but the entire fragment that fell into the sea and was inserted into the seabed. And the exposed part is where they see the island.

When you think about it, the size of this fragment is really quite large.

Leaving the shore where their ship was docked, it was almost uphill ahead. The steeply angled ground is made of rocks and covered with moss, and it is so slippery that it is almost impossible to walk on unless it is severely cracked, and there are many gaps that can be leveraged.

However, God bless them are not ordinary people, except for Qi Xiaomei, who is a little harder, God bless them are almost unaffected.

The tiger girl is a tiger demon, the mountains and forests are her home, and no matter how difficult the road is, it is not a problem for her.

Hu Qingxuan is similar. Although she has been in the world for a long time, she is a fox demon born in the mountains and forests after all. I saw the graceful white figure jumping between the rocks covered with green moss, and the snow-white shawl behind him fluttered lightly in the wind, as if it was not walking, but flying low on the ground.

As for God bless...... That's a monkey.

Only Qi Xiaomei, although she has studied hard and practiced hard since joining Zixiao Palace, and her cultivation has improved a lot, but because of the built-in King Kong skull bones, the defense is up, but the light spirit is hopeless. Fortunately, she has a lot of strength, relying on brute force to jump, every time she lands, she can step on the rocks under her feet into a shallow pit, and she is not worried about slipping. It's just that the movement is a bit big, and it doesn't look as high as God bless them.

Some distance away from the shore, you can see the trees and vegetation that grow across the sky. There doesn't seem to be any animals on the island, and it's crawling with vegetation everywhere. Moreover, the uncontrolled plants are completely savage, and the density of the aura here seems to be much higher than that of other places, and the plants are growing indiscriminately like crazy. So much so that there is no existence on the island that can be called a road, if it weren't for God's blessing of their strong mobility, it would be almost impossible to move an inch in this kind of place.

Rumble. Click. "Ahh

Tianyou, who was running in front, suddenly heard a loud noise behind them, then the sound of wood breaking, and then they heard Qi Xiaomei's exclamation.

Tianyou hurriedly stopped, looked back, and saw the earth fragments falling from the sky.

Hu Qingxuan and Hu Niu in front also heard the movement and stood up, looked back, but found that it was the place where Qi Xiaomei landed, and a huge rotten wood that fell to the ground was trampled by the weight of her fall, and the two ends rebounded directly, throwing countless pieces of earth and wood flying. And Qi Xiaomei herself fell into the dead branches and leaves under the rotten wood.

originally thought that she would get up soon, but God blessed them didn't care, and they didn't even think about going over to help, just looking around and observing the environment while waiting for Qi Xiaomei to climb out by herself. However, after a few breaths, God bless them, they found out that something was wrong. Qi Xiaomei didn't climb out by herself after she fell, and there was no movement under the dead branches, as if Qi Xiaomei had disappeared.

"What's going on?"

Tianyou and Hu Qingxuan glanced at each other, and then turned around together and returned to the dead wood where Qi Xiaomei fell.

The huge dead wood that had been trampled off had rolled to the side, revealing the loose humus of dead branches and leaves below. However, when they got closer, they finally noticed that something was wrong, because there was no one under the dead leaves.

Tianyou's own senses are keen, Hu Qingxuan and Hu Niu are not weak in cultivation, at such a close distance, it is impossible for anyone under the leaves not to feel it. What's more, this is not a casual passing, but a purposeful search for a fallen companion. I still don't feel anything under my concentration, which can only mean that Qi Xiaomei and Ben are not below.

The tiger girl reacted the fastest, and raised her hand to the pile of dead leaves on the ground to fan hard. A gust of wind hung by, blowing loose leaves and dead branches on the ground. Although there were still many tangled dead branches that had not been blown away, without the cover of dead leaves, God blessed them and immediately discovered the hole in the ground that was hidden under the dead leaves.

God bless them, and what they found was not a hole in the ground, but the roof.

It is a building that was buried in the ground, and it was supposed to be part of the ruins of the Heavenly Palace, but because of its age, it was covered with vegetation after falling, and then over time, dead branches and leaves continued to accumulate on the roof, and finally rotted and turned into dirt, completely burying the building. As for the hole, it was actually a hole in the roof. The rotten tree that was trampled on by Qi Xiaomei before fell on the roof, just covering the entrance of the hole. It's just that Qi Xiaomei is too heavy, and the impact of landing when she jumps forward is too great, directly smashing the rotten dead wood above, and coincidentally just sliding directly into the hole below.

Quickly picking up the remaining dead branches and throwing them aside, Tianyou rushed to the entrance of the cave and shouted: "Little sister, little sister, are you okay?"

There was a faint commotion below, and there was an echo, and the space seemed to be quite small. Then Tianyou heard Qi Xiaomei's answer.

"Brother Tianyou, I'm fine. It's a bit high up there though, and you throw a rope down. ”

"Wait. ”

Tianyou took off the worry-free bag and rummaged through the rope, but the tiger girl on the side took out the fire fold and went to the hole to see the situation below. Tianyou, who was looking for the rope, found the fire fold opened by the tiger girl out of the corner of his eye, and immediately exclaimed, "Don't!"

It's a pity that he shouted late. Just when he shouted no, the fire fold in Hu Niu's hand had already approached the entrance of the cave, and then there was an earth-shattering bang. Even with the reflexes of the Great Demon, he couldn't dodge this sudden burst of power, and the ground under his feet was lifted upwards entirely. Tianyou, Hu Niu, and Hu Qingxuan, none of them ran away, they were all swept into the air together, and they fell out in all directions.

"Ahh There was a sharp pain in the limbs, so painful that I didn't dare to breathe, because every movement would increase the degree of pain.

Before he could slow down, there was a sudden boom around Tianyou's body, and the boulder under him sank a little. The momentary feeling of weightlessness appeared and disappeared at the same time, and although it hurt, Tianyou's consciousness was not chaotic. Realizing what was going to happen, he couldn't cope at all, because his body was in pain to the point that he couldn't move, and even if he knew what was going on under him, he didn't dare to move.

Sure enough, after the first tremor, the boulder beneath him suddenly sank with a clattering sound, and the ground around him also collapsed and collapsed at the same time.

When Qi Xiaomei shouted at him to throw the rope just now, Tianyou knew that there was not a lot of space down there, otherwise there would not be such an obvious echo. In other words, God bless them have been standing on a large roof all the time, and the roof under their feet is completely suspended.

Tianyou didn't let the tiger girl use the fire fold, just because he guessed the following situation.

The building is buried in the ground, and the surrounding area must have been sealed, which means that the interior is a semi-sealed environment, like a city sewer. In addition, over the years, a large number of dead leaves fall through the hole at the top, rotting and fermenting inside, forming a natural biogas digester. Normally, there is no open flame, but when an open flame approaches, it will immediately detonate the well-mixed biogas below.

Tianyou had played caving when he was on Earth before, and he had seen this kind of environment, so he didn't rush to throw fire down. It's a pity that Tianyou understands, but the tiger girl doesn't understand, and the result is like a bear child who threw firecrackers into the sewer, and directly blew up the hole in the ground.

The building has been buried in the ground for many years, and it has long since lost its sturdiness. Even the building of the Heavenly Palace has experienced a high-altitude fall and a long-term deep underground burial, and its own structure has actually been almost destroyed. The explosion was the final blow that broke the camel's back, and the whole building could no longer support the weight of the top. In addition to the roof near the explosion site, the entire roof was blown away, and the surrounding parts also completely collapsed and collapsed.

Tianyou felt his body soar again in an instant, but before he could react, he fell heavily on the stone again. What's even worse is that the boulder under him actually rolled because of the fall, and it looked like it was about to turn Tianyou under him.

"Damn!" Tianyou, who can't move his body, can't dodge Ben, but fortunately he's the type who gets calmer the more nervous. Seeing that he would flip himself to the ground and run over the boulder above his head in the next second, God blessed him with wisdom. The Xuanling Treasure Mirror instantly appeared in front of him, which was worthy of the rolling boulder.

Although the Xuanling Treasure Mirror looks like a slender and exquisite ancient mirror, it was made by the Secret Realm Fairy after all, and it had also blocked the full force of the Great Demon King Demon Dream back then. Even if this magic weapon is seriously damaged and cannot be completely repaired, it is not something that a single stone can help.

There was a Xuanling Treasure Mirror blocking the rolling boulder, Tianyou hurriedly endured the pain and tried to move to the side, but fortunately, before he could climb twice, Hu Qingxuan fell from the sky and slapped his palm on the boulder. The boulder the size of a van flew out like a leather ball.

"Master, are you alright?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that my whole body hurts, don't touch me yet, just let me take it slowly. You go first to see how Qi Xiaomei is doing. ”

As soon as Tianyou finished speaking, Hu Qingxuan didn't have time to act, but he didn't expect Qi Xiaomei to come over by herself.

Just now they were one up and one down, but now that everyone is below, Qi Xiaomei doesn't need a rope anymore, so she walked over by herself.

Compared with Tianyou, who fell twice in a row after being lifted away, Qi Xiaomei's condition was actually much better.

Qi Xiaomei was inside the building when the explosion occurred, but the main power of the biogas explosion was only the detonation damage caused by the instantaneous ultra-high pressure, which did not produce any fragments or high temperature. And Qi Xiaomei, she is a half-zombie, don't look at the tender skin as if she can pinch out the water, in fact, she is the hardest defense in their small group. The power of the explosion just made Qi Xiaomei's tinnitus dizzy for a moment, and she recovered before Tianyou landed. It's just that the collapsed roof smashed her underneath again, and then she came out with a wasted effort. Otherwise, she would be the first to come to the rescue.

After learning about Qi Xiaomei's situation, Hu Niu also ran back. Of course, there will be nothing wrong, how could Hu Niu's cultivation be injured by this little movement? But she happened to be at the entrance of the cave when the explosion occurred, and it was the main outlet for the power of the explosion, so she also flew the farthest.

The tiger girl, who knew that she was in trouble, was a little embarrassed and waited for Tianyou's criticism, but Tianyou didn't intend to blame her at all.

The Divine Continent has no knowledge of this. The tiger girl doesn't understand the principle, and it's not her intention to cause trouble. Just tell her that you can't do this in the future, and that there's no need to punish her.

However, although Tianyou doesn't plan to pursue it, Hu Niu herself is still a little reluctant to go, always thinking of finding an opportunity to compensate. No matter what Tianyou wants to do, she rushes to come, wanting to atone for her sins.

Tianyou also knew that not letting her do it would make her feel uncomfortable, and it happened that her body was hurting badly now, so he simply ordered her to do some work.

First of all, I have to inform the people on the other side of the warship, after all, this is not far from the sea, and there has just made such a big noise, and the other side must have heard it. If Tianyou doesn't send someone over to inform him, the captain will definitely organize people to come over.

Tianyou, who knew that there might be monsters on the island, didn't want the crew to go ashore to take risks, so he asked Tiger Niu to explain. When she returned, she began to wisdom again, helping to clear the rubble.

Originally, Tianyou had planned to come down to see the situation here, but now that the entire roof has flown away, the lighting has improved a lot. The only problem was that the falling rubble and some tree debris blocked their exploration, so Tiger Girl had to work hard to clean it up.

After the explosion, the pieces that fell were basically fragments, anyway, the tiger girl had a lot of strength. She lifted the refrigerator-sized stone with one hand and threw it out of the pit, and the thick half-log got stuck on the ground, and she broke it with one punch, grabbed it like a twig, and threw it out. Soon, large pieces of debris were cleared, and the interior of the building was basically revealed.

As Tianyou speculated before, this building area is quite small. The floor is paved with flat stone slabs, and there are carved reliefs on the surface. It's just that they are buried deep in the ground all year round, and the cracks of these reliefs are all dirt transformed from rotting dead leaves, and they need to be cleaned up to see the patterns.

Clearing an area a little, you can see that the reliefs on the ground are basically the same, they are all simple moirés, the same as those seen in the Falling Heaven before. Now it is almost certain that this is part of the Immortal Heavenly Palace that crashed that year.

After taking a cursory look at the reliefs on the ground, Tianyou's attention was quickly attracted by a depression in the main hall.

This depression was not created later, but was one of the structures of the building itself. The depression is located in the middle of the building, which is circular in shape, about two zhang in diameter, and is surrounded by three circular steps leading to the bottom.

At the bottom of the pit, a pitch-black copper furnace lay on the ground, and a visible hole could be seen in the outer wall, as if it had been left a long time ago.

Hu Niu doesn't understand this, and she can't see the fame after turning around this stove a few times, but Hu Qingxuan knows a little. "This should be a Dan furnace. ”

"Dan furnace, the kind of alchemy?" As soon as she heard that it was a Dan furnace, Hu Niu immediately leaned over and looked inside from the open furnace.

Hu Qingxuan said with a smile: "What are you doing? It's been so long, is it possible that you still want to find a few elixirs?"

Hu Niu and Ben didn't take Hu Qingxuan's ridicule seriously, but instead poked half of their bodies into the furnace. The sound came from the hearth, and some urns were angry.

"What if there is? Don't come in if you don't like it, I've found one for you. ”

Tianyou was also helped to the Dan furnace by Qi Xiaomei, watching most of the tiger girl's body get into the hearth, leaving only a round buttocks twisted and twisted outside, and couldn't help laughing: "Even if you really let you find it, it's useless." ”

"Why?" Tiger Niu was still a little unconvinced.

Tianyou explained with a smile: "The so-called elixir is nothing more than refining the materials rich in spiritual energy to extract the essence of them and form crystal nuclei. Moreover, in order to facilitate absorption, the elixir not only cannot store spiritual power for a long time, but is particularly volatile on the contrary, so that it is easier to absorb the spiritual power as soon as possible after taking it. ”

"So what?" Tiger Niu still didn't react.

Hu Qingxuan couldn't help but pull her out, and said at the same time: "So even if the elixir is left unmoved, it will quickly lose its aura, if there is no special utensils to store and suppress the leakage of aura, the effect of ordinary elixir will drop by half in less than three days, and then it will drop by half every four to five days." In this way, this place has been untouched for at least a thousand years. Even if there is really an elixir in it, I am afraid that the aura contained now will have already been astigmatized. ”

"Make me happy in vain!ah...... Something pierced her hand!" "Finally understood that it was impossible to find the elixir here, and the tiger girl was about to retreat, but her palm pressed against something and was cut open.

You must know that the tiger girl is a big demon. Although the tiger demon is not known for defense, the demon clan has always cultivated her physique first, and with her demon-level cultivation, the toughness of her skin should have reached the point where no mortal soldier can be injured. However, just after accidentally scraping it, a bloody wound was cut, and the thing underneath was obviously nothing extraordinary.

Although it was scratched, the tiger girl was not a delicate lady, she didn't take it seriously at all, she brushed aside the unknown black mud deposited at the bottom of the furnace, and finally saw something that scratched herself, so she took it out together.

"It's ...... An arrow?"

To be exact, there is only one arrow brought out by the tiger girl, and the arrow shaft has long been washed into dust by the long river of time. Strangely, however, the arrow was shiny as new, almost as if it were new except for some black dirt on the surface. Tianyou took a piece of cloth and wiped it, but found that the cold light on the arrow was shining, as if it had just been forged.

"This ...... It looks like a baby. ”
