Chapter 55: The Cold Light of the Night
After looking around in the courtyard, Feng Ruo returned to the fire and sat down, but there were some doubts in his heart.
He has never believed in any ghosts and gods, especially after becoming a cultivator, all he believes in is his own strength, but the cold wind is not a spirit beast, otherwise, at his current speed, there is no reason why he can't see it.
What's more, if it was a spirit beast, it should have launched an attack a long time ago, and in fact, that mortal old man had always lived here and had never been attacked.
Thinking of this, Feng Ruo's gaze looked at the dead spirit tree again, why did the cold wind appear not long after he injected mana into it?
Feng Ruo frowned slightly, and then came to the spirit wood again to input some mana, and at the same time, he also paid close attention to the surrounding situation.
Sure enough, not long after Feng Ruo input the mana, a faint light suddenly flashed from his right side, and a "whoosh" sound swept past his ears, and when he quickly turned his head to look, he found that the faint light had already dissipated!
However, at this time, Feng Ruo was shocked into a cold sweat, and then he knew that he was really lucky just now, because this cold light seemed to be randomly generated, and the time of the attack was also very short, but the power was extraordinary, if he was hit head-on, he was afraid that he would be seriously injured if he didn't die!
"Strange, what is this cold light, why does it produce as long as you input mana?" Feng Ruo circled around the dead spirit tree a few times, but he didn't know the point, because he had never heard of the spirit wood in the Immortal Cultivation Realm having this effect.
After thinking about it, Feng Ruo decided to talk about it later, after all, it was not suitable to dig in the middle of the night!
Although the source of that cold light was determined, the doubts in Feng Ruo's heart did not decrease but increased, because according to the current situation, the biggest reason why this courtyard was abandoned was that this spirit tree was completely dead, and the cultivation of the spirit tree would take at least ten years, so no cultivator was willing to do such a stupid thing!
After all, due to the preciousness of the spirit tree, there are many cultivators in the immortal cultivation world who are good at cultivating spirit trees, and entering mana is the most suitable cultivation method.
"Why don't you ask Tang Qing and them to try it!" Feng Ruo thought to himself.
The night passed quickly, and when the sky was bright, Lan Ling and the others also ended their cultivation one after another, like their current realm, they had very little sleep every day.
"Hey, Feng Ruo, why do you keep staring at this dead spirit tree? Could it be that this spirit tree turned into a banshee last night to seduce you?" Tang Qing half-jokingly at this time.
Hearing him say this, Peng Yue also coaxed: "It's really impossible! Yesterday, the owner of this courtyard said that this spiritual tree is two hundred years old, and the spiritual energy emitted back then is quite pure, it is said that his brother became a cultivator because of his cultivation in this courtyard, but unfortunately later for some reason, this spiritual tree withered and died, and it seems that many strange things happened during this period!"
"What's weird?" Feng Ruo suddenly asked.
"Well, it is said that the protective formation of this courtyard is often broken inexplicably, and it is all in broad daylight, many cultivators have witnessed it with their own eyes back then, and they have completed the protective formation, but it is often completely broken in less than half a day, and there is no trace of attack around it, even if it is always watched from the sidelines, as a result, there are no cultivators renting here!" Peng Yue said mysteriously.
"Hey, hey, you say there won't really be a banshee, I'll keep vigil tonight!" Tang Qing jumped up excitedly, there was no way, subduing demons and eliminating demons was the favorite thing many cultivators would do!
"What a banshee! It's just a legend, not to mention who knows the truth about what happened more than a hundred years ago, okay, everyone is here, let's discuss our future plans!" At this time, Lan Ling and Mingxi also came to the dead spirit tree, it was obvious that because Ye Hong had woken up, Lan Ling was in a good mood today.
"Just now, my master gave me three hundred low-grade Five Element Stones, but these Five Element Stones can only barely allow a few of us to settle down temporarily, except for the protective formation of this courtyard and the feeding of flying mounts, there is not much left, so we must go out hunting, or go to the three major sects of Tiandang Mountain to take on tasks, otherwise it will be difficult to continue cultivating!"
Lan Ling paused, and then said: "My opinion is that everyone should go hunting spirit beasts first, which is less difficult and safer, after all, if we go to the three major sects to take over the task, our strength is too low, and we have to cooperate with other cultivators, we are new to the city, it is easy to be bullied!
"I think it's feasible, but there doesn't seem to be a suitable hunting place for us in the Tiandang Mountain area!, and it's easy to have disputes with other cultivators!" Peng Yue thought about it, and then said, he knew a little more about the Tiandang Mountain area than Feng Ruo Tang Qing.
"I've thought about it, let's go to the seventy-two peaks of Qingyun Mountain, the seventy-two peaks area is thousands of miles, it is difficult to meet other hunters, the only trouble is that the round-trip journey will be very long, but I think as long as everyone works hard, there will be nothing to do! Let's rest for a while, and after I have arranged the protective formation of this courtyard, we will set off!" Lan Ling had obviously already thought of a plan, so he said it in one breath.
Hearing her say this, Feng Ruo and the others naturally had no opinion, and as for what Peng Yue said about the fact that the protective formation was broken for no reason, everyone didn't pay attention to it, they just thought that the mortals in the town were spreading falsehoods.
But Feng Ruo knew that this kind of thing might be real, and the culprit was the cold light he saw last night, but a hundred years ago, that cold light appeared in broad daylight, so it was naturally difficult for people to notice.
At this time, Peng Yue was pulled by Lan Ling to arrange the Rushan formation, and Feng Ruo hurriedly called Tang Qing and asked him to try to input some mana into the dead spirit tree, while he was observing with a solemn face.
Although Tang Qing felt a little funny, he still did what Feng Ruo asked, but what puzzled Feng Ruo was that the cold light he saw last night never appeared, not even at all.
"Mingxi, you can try it!" Feng Ruo unwillingly pulled Mingxi, who was watching the excitement on the side, over.
"This spirit tree is really dead, you don't need to try to know!" Mingxi's tone was completely authoritative, but he still couldn't resist Feng Ruo's request to personally input some mana, and the result was the same as Tang Qing, the cold light never appeared.
"Hey, Feng Ruo, you won't really be fascinated by the banshee, will you?, why is Jin Yu's behavior so weird?" Tang Qing circled around Feng Ruo curiously, and sighed.
"Okay! If you're interested in the banshee, I'll leave the vigil to you in the future!" Feng Ruo couldn't help but laugh, and then returned to his cabin, now it was his turn to cultivate, but in his heart, an incredible thought came to him.
"Could it be that his mana is completely different from Tang Qing, Mingxi and the others, or is it because of the wood spirit stone?"
