At this time, there was no war in the Xiangyang area, Genghis Khan had not yet completed his unification cause, and the threat to the Jin people and the Southern Song Dynasty was not obvious, and the important strategic position of Xiangyang City had not yet been discovered.

When Lin Tao arrived in the city, he first found an inn to rest for a while, and then he found Xiao Er and gave him a few words. Soon, the farmers who made a living from hunting and chopping firewood received a message. There is a great merchant looking for a valley, in this valley there is a great eagle and a strange snake, who can tell the specific location, there is a lot of reward.

This valley is impossible for Lin Tao to find, but for those hunters who wander in the mountains and forests all year round, it is familiar and cannot be more familiar. As soon as the news spread, I received replies from several people in the evening.

Early the next morning, Lin Tao held a piece of paper and drew a detailed map, and traveled all the way north, and soon arrived at a valley.

Because of the eagle owl and the bosquer snake in this valley, ordinary hunters do not dare to enter it. So while many people know about this place, few people go inside.

The more Lin Tao walked inward, the more difficult it became, surrounded by waist-high weeds, and there were many poisonous insects. I was impatient, and suddenly heard a loud cry from the top of the mountain, and looked up, and saw a black eagle eagle with its head held high, standing majestically on the top of the mountain, but looking at its ugly appearance, skinny, but giving people a sense of awe-inspiring and inviolable.

When the eagle saw Lin Tao, he suddenly let out a long roar and swooped down. Its body is huge, and it can't spread its wings in a small place, but its legs and feet are very powerful, and it runs as fast as the wind, and it is in front of Lin Tao in a blink of an eye.

Lin Tao didn't understand the beast language, and he didn't know if this eagle was hostile, so he was on guard at the moment, and his cultivation in the middle of the innate realm was fully open, ready to fight at any time.

The big eagle was startled when he saw Lin Tao's momentum, took two steps back, nodded again, showed excitement in his eyes, raised his head, and fluttered his wings to Lin Tao.

Lin Tao didn't dare to be careless, and immediately pulled out the Ice and Snow Sword, and used the Jade Flute Sword Technique to concentrate on the enemy. This eagle has followed Dugu for a long time, and under the daily practice, he is also proficient in Dugu Jiujian in his chest.

However, the eagle is not a human after all, and the Dugu Nine Swords are not beasts that can operate freely, so Lin Tao gradually gained the upper hand after fighting it for dozens of rounds, but he didn't want to hurt it, so he left his hands everywhere between moves.

After a few more moves, the eagle suddenly took a few steps back, as if recognizing Lin Tao, waved his wings twice, and then ran towards the valley by himself, ran more than ten steps, and made sure that Lin Tao had followed, and then continued to move forward.

After walking all the way like this for nearly half an hour, he finally arrived at the stone cave where Dugu was buried.

Lin Tao entered the cave, took out two cooked roast chickens from the star ring, threw one to the eagle, and ate the other one himself. As a result, he only took two bites of a chicken leg, and the eagle had already swallowed the whole chicken into his belly, and he was forgetting about him. Lin Tao was amused in his heart, and with a wave of his hand, there were more than a dozen roast chickens on the ground, and there were even two jars of Moutai that were selling hot in Tianlong World.

After eating the two chicken legs, he no longer felt hungry, and when he saw that the eagle was still eating there, he walked to the back of the stone cave.

The trees behind the cave are verdant, and there is a murmuring water, and Lin Tao walked for a while, and then saw a towering cliff. The cliff rises into the sky, and the sides are smooth, like a screen. Standing twenty zhang on the ground, there is a stone of three or four zhang in size, like a platform.

Lin Tao looked intently, and saw two big characters engraved on the boulder, and after a closer look, he found that it was the word 'sword mound', and he was immediately happy.

Although the stone wall was bare and devoid of vegetation, it was not a problem for him, and he climbed it in only three or two clicks.

I saw that behind the boulder was a small cave, with a line of large characters on each side.

"The sword demon is lonely and defeated, and he is invincible in the world, but he buries his sword in Si."

"Woohoo! The heroes are tied, the long swords are sharp, and they are sad! ”

Lin Tao has no interest in these, and the so-called invincibility of Dugu is only limited to this Condor World. Lin Tao admired his talent in creating Dugu Nine Swords, but he also firmly believed that he would be able to surpass him in the future, so he did not howl hoarsely like Yang Guo, but walked in very calmly.

There are no tricks in the cave, but a few swords with them are just hidden in Dugu's quest for defeat. The crape myrtle soft sword was abandoned by him in the valley, and the wooden sword behind it also turned into rotten wood.

can only use a sharp long sword used by Dugu when he was a young man, and the dark iron heavy sword. Lin Tao was also not polite, and directly put these two swords into the Star Ring Space.

Taking the sword away, Lin Tao rummaged in the cave for a while, and finally determined that Dugu did not leave any martial arts secrets, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed. After all, the Dugu Nine Sword is a peerless secret book comparable to the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending and the Six-Vein Divine Sword, and it is a great pity for a person who practices martial arts not to be able to master it.

Out of the cave, Lin Tao saw that the eagle eagle also followed him, probably because of the dozen roast chickens, and its attitude towards Lin Tao was quite friendly at this time.

Ignoring the eagle owl, Lin Tao walked straight into the valley, and under his deliberate search, he found a strange snake in a short time. I saw that its body was faintly glowing with golden light, and there was a pair of fleshy horns on the top of its head, and it walked as fast as the wind. When he saw Lin Tao, he immediately attacked him.

Lin Tao took a step back, his body bent forward slightly, and only one drew his sword, and the two strange snakes were in different places. This strange snake is highly poisonous, he didn't dare to touch it with his hands, and after picking out the snake gall with the cold ice and snow sword, he washed it twice with water before holding it in his hand and watching.

Seeing that the gallbladder was dark purple and the size of a round walnut, Lin Tao looked at it for a moment and threw it into his mouth. This thing is very fishy, and when you bite it lightly, the outer skin of the ball will burst, and your mouth will be full of bitter juice.

Lin Tao frowned suddenly, this juice was really fishy and bitter, and it was extremely unpalatable, but thinking that it was a good thing that could improve his strength, it was also worth swallowing with nausea.

As soon as the juice entered his abdomen, he felt a warm current rise, and hurriedly meditated and refined. After running for three whole weeks, the warm current was fully absorbed, and when the eyes opened, a fine light flashed from it, and the internal force suddenly soared, causing the essence to leak out.

Standing up and waving his arms twice, Lin Tao couldn't hide the surprise on his face. At this time, he could already determine that this strange snake must be the Bodhisattva snake that Yang Guo encountered. It's just that the effect of this snake gall still greatly exceeded Lin Tao's expectations.

You must know that he is now a master in the middle of the innate realm, and his internal strength is pure and profound, even so, this snake gall has also improved his internal strength by one point, which is enough to withstand three years of penance. From this point of view, if a strong person at the peak of the acquired realm devours snake gall, he will definitely be able to open up the second vein of Ren Du and advance to the innate realm.
