Chapter 85
After Xuan Ye left, without the routine cultivation every night, Xue Yi felt that his life was a lot empty. In the past, I was both expecting and dreading about training every night. Although he was being abused every night, his strength improved extremely quickly. Therefore, every day during the day, I hope that the time can pass quickly, hurry up to see Xuan Ye in the evening, and continue the journey of improving my strength. As soon as I relaxed, it was as if something was missing in my life.
Every night, Xue Yi has formed a biological clock, and every midnight, no matter how heavy he sleeps, he will wake up from his sleep, even now that he doesn't need to go out to cultivate at night. However, for a monk, sleeping for two hours a night was enough, so even if he stayed up late every night to cultivate during his previous cultivation, he would not feel sleepy during the daytime the next day.
"Twitter-" The Qinglu Mountains in the daytime, as far as the eye can see, are verdant green. Unknown birds were bouncing around the dense forest, happily discussing something. Xue Yi held the back basket behind him with one hand while cleaning up the dense bushes in front of him. Xiao Bi lay on Xue Yi's shoulder, constantly looking around, looking for the breath of the elixir. Now, with the improvement of Xue Yi's strength, he has gradually become emboldened, and he has begun to go deeper into the Qinglu Mountains to find medicinal materials than before. These places are even more inaccessible due to the presence of ferocious large beasts or even magical beasts. However, it was precisely because of the scarcity of people that the elixirs in these places were more intensive, and they would bring surprises to Xue Yi from time to time.
"Huh-" Xiaobi suddenly rushed to Xue Yi's left shoulder, and her head kept flicking to the northwest. "Oh, what did you find?" Xue Yi was overjoyed. This time, Xiaobi's reaction was quite intense, and she was more excited than the previous discovery of the elixir, and it seemed that she might have to make a big discovery this time.
Now, with Xiaobi's help and Xue Yi's strength, the elixir that this pair finds every day is amazing. Of course, Xue Yi would not be stupid enough to send them to the Zhou Mansion, and some of these rare and precious medicinal materials arrived in the stomachs of one person and one snake on the way. However, what surprised Xue Yi a little was that for these essences condensed by the essence of heaven and earth, there was a limit to the amount Xue Yi could consume each time. The more you eat, the better, it's proportional to the strength of the eater. If you eat too much at one time and you can't digest it, then your body will be overwhelmed by a large amount of essence. The light ones may bleed from the seven orifices, and the heavy ones may even be overwhelmed by this huge amount of energy. However, Xiaobi has so much at all, its small belly is like a bottomless pit, and it will not feel uncomfortable as much as it eats at a time, but it still looks at Xue Yi's back basket and drools. At first, Xue Yi was still worried about it, afraid that it would not be able to digest so much energy. Later, I saw that it was fine, so I let it eat, and only left enough to go to the Zhou Mansion every day.
With Xiaobi, a foodie's daily meal, Xue Yi found that the turquoise scales on its body seemed to be becoming more and more crystalline, and the snake scales were verdant, like transparent jade. In the face of this situation, although Xue Yi didn't know what the final result would be, at least it would not be a bad result, and it would definitely develop in a good direction.
Xue Yi followed the direction of Xiaobi's guidance and moved forward quickly. Along the way, Xiaobi constantly corrected Xue Yi's route and direction. As he walked, Xue Yi began to have doubts in his heart. He had been following Xiaobi's guidance for a full quarter of an hour. You must know that Xue Yi's current speed, even if he maintains a normal speed, he can move forward more than twenty meters in one breath, and in a quarter of an hour, he has already gone down more than ten miles. On weekdays, Xiaobi's perception still can't reach such a distance, how can she sense the breath of the elixir from such a distance today?
And as she continued to move forward, Xiaobi on her shoulders seemed to be even more excited, and there was a hint of fiery color in her eyes like black gems. Xue Yi stopped and looked behind him. As they moved forward, they had begun to move away from the crowd and gradually went deeper into the depths of the Qinglu Mountains. Now they are in a quieter place, and there are few small creatures around. If you go any further, you'll be in danger of encountering a monster.
Looking at Xiao Bi on his shoulder, who was constantly urging him forward, Xue Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth. Whatever, just fight once this time, there is no danger, how can there be a big gain? Looking at Xiaobi's reaction, the target this time is definitely not ordinary, I am afraid that it is some kind of extremely rare heaven and earth treasure.
After settling down, Xue Yi accelerated again, and his figure brought a phantom in the forest, and quickly rushed towards the direction guided by Xiao Bi. After advancing for about five miles, Xue Yi suddenly stopped. Because here, Xue Yi actually smelled an extremely strong aroma. The aroma is very special, at first glance it looks like fruit, and when you smell it carefully, there is an aroma of fresh milk, and it is like the fragrance of some flower, which is refreshing.
Xue Yi didn't dare to run wildly anymore, slowed down, and carefully pushed away the grass in front of him, which was more than a person tall. To Xue Yi's surprise, the mountain forest in front of him was actually sparse, and there was a huge canyon entrance not far away, and the bursts of aroma came from there.
Xiaobi on her shoulder had calmed down at this time, and seemed to enjoy feeling the aroma, her eyes looking straight at the canyon.
"It seems that the aroma is emitted by the so-called heavenly treasure. Xue Yi thought secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to act rashly. At this time, they were already in the area where demonic beasts often appeared, and this aroma was very strong, and it was impossible not to attract the attention of some powerful demonic beasts. If this is the case, there is a high probability that there will be demonic beasts around this strange thing, and it is impossible for him to be approached by a human.
"What should I do, can't I get in?" Xue Yi was extremely conflicted in his heart. In the end, he still chose to wait and see, wait and see, life is always the most important. If you break in like this, if a powerful demonic beast comes out head-on, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to run.
After about an hour, just as the sun was starting to set in the west, there was finally movement in the canyon. I only heard a loud sound of shaking the mountains, and it seemed that a behemoth appeared at the entrance to the valley. Xue Yi hurriedly retracted his head, leaving only a crack to secretly look out. I saw a giant elephant-like creature slowly walking out of the canyon. It's not an exaggeration to say that this guy is a behemoth. It is said to be a giant elephant, but it is actually much larger than an elephant. The body of about six or seven meters is like a small mountain bag, ten meters long from head to tail, the huge tail has barbs on it, the skull is hideous, and a long trunk is almost the same as that of an elephant, only longer and thicker.
