Chapter 26: The First Return

The black pool seemed to be bottomless, and the red beast's blood fell into it, quickly spreading and disappearing.

There is also a small beast that is always squeaking and screaming by the waterhole, tied to the side, waiting for the choice of fate.

In the process of searching for spiritual objects, the bottom of various caves and lakes are the targets of Li Qiao's search, and it has been three days since he found this waterhole, and he wants to enter it to search, but he is worried about the unknown danger hidden inside.

It was really his own strength that was too low, and he had to be careful, so he thought of this method of temptation.

Throwing the blood of beasts in the waterhole for three days in a row did not reveal anything unusual except for a few beasts.

But even so, Li Qiao did not take it lightly, but used the rope he braided to tie up the beast and throw it into the pool, until one night later, nothing abnormal happened, Li Qiao put away his clothes, and then jumped into the water with a close-quarters sword.

Although it was a sunny day, the water in the pool was still a little cold, which was nothing to Li Qiao.

The monk has an aura in his body, and under normal circumstances, as long as the aura is not depleted, there is no need to consider the danger of suffocation.

Until it went deep into the waterhole for dozens of feet, it didn't reach the bottom of the pool, and at this depth, the water was already dark.

Divine sense, how good it would be if you had divine sense, at this moment, the obsession with divine consciousness appeared again in Li Qiao's heart.

He had to float up, and being out of sight was only one aspect, and the further down he went, the greater the water pressure, which was also a little unbearable for him, a small Qi cultivator.

While floating, I was a little unwilling to keep groping, because there was no divine sense, and the sight situation in the water was not good, and most of my mind was placed on the perception of the surroundings.

I didn't find any growing spirit plants, but at a certain moment, I felt a slight fluctuation in the current, and for a moment I was filled with fear and vigilance, and I quickly took out my close-range sword to be on guard.

This waterhole has been observed for three days, and no fish have been found before, and nothing has been found when it has just come down.

Because there is such a possibility in Li Qiao's guess: there were originally fish in the water, but they were eaten clean by some kind of creature, so they only tried it for three days, otherwise they wouldn't have been so careful.

Time seemed to slow down, but after this abnormal fluctuation of the current, everything was back to normal, and there were no terrible water beasts, as if nothing had happened.

If he was more timid and encountered such a situation, he might have fled directly while he was temporarily safe, but Li Qiao didn't, he was very curious, if there were no creatures, where did this water fluctuation come from?

After waiting in place for a while, I felt the abnormal water flow fluctuations again, and carefully probed, and finally found the reason, it turned out that there were some small gaps in some stone walls, and these gaps should be connected to the groundwater, so this waterhole has existed for a long time.

It is likely that a long time ago, the original appearance of this waterhole was a hole dug by some large creature, and then the hole was flooded......

Knowing the reason, Li Qiao did not stay, but returned directly to it.

The first thing after coming up was to return to his temporary cave and quickly replenish the aura consumed in his body, which did not last long, but also consumed thirty percent of the aura in his body.

The waterhole is connected to the underground dark river, and the probability of some cold attribute elixirs appearing in the underground dark river is also higher.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are some monks who practice techniques such as earth escape, specifically looking for resources under the ground, but using spells will be consumed, and it is impossible to find them in a large area, which is basically an act of gambling on luck.

Li Qiao really wanted to break through the waterhole and go into the underground river to look for resources, but he couldn't.

The level is too low, and it is destined to stay underground for too long, and if one does not pay attention and is swept away by the underground undercurrent, there is basically no need to think about coming up.

And there is no divine sense or any lighting magic, and in the dark environment of the underground, it is almost like a blind man.

The only thing Li Qiao can do is to remember this place and come back to see it when he cultivates to a higher level in the future.

There are countless underground dark rivers in the world of cultivating immortals, and they are constantly changing, but the time of this change is measured in thousands of years, and there will not be many changes in a short period of time.

For two years in a row, Li Qiao basically spent this kind of days of cultivating while looking for resources, and his cultivation was promoted to the fourth level of Qi cultivation.

After that, it seemed that he had been transferred, not only did he find a few primary spirit grasses in the mountain forest, but he also found a little earth spirit milk in the depths of a naturally formed cave, about a small bowl of amount.

Earth spirit milk is not a valuable thing, to put it bluntly, after a long time, the special formation of spiritual energy polymers, similar to wood spirit liquid, water spirit essence, etc., the name is different, in fact, they are all similar things.

When the aura between heaven and earth is not yet spiritual, the earth spirit milk can be taken directly by mortals, which has the effect of changing the physique of mortals and improving the longevity of mortals.

Now that heaven and earth are all spiritual evils, mortals can't take it, and monks can only quickly restore their spiritual energy, and generally the recovery effect of a drop of spiritual milk is similar to the spiritual energy content of a medium-grade spiritual stone.

Even if it takes at least 100,000 years to form the top-grade earth spirit milk, the effect of taking one drop is only as good as a high-grade spirit stone.

But you must know that the earth spirit milk is gone when it is used, and the spirit stone can be used repeatedly.

This small bowl of Earth Spirit Milk is equal to the spiritual energy content of hundreds of medium-grade spirit stones, and it is also equal to the spiritual energy content of dozens of high-grade spirit stones.

But you must know that if a Jindan stage cultivator's spiritual energy is exhausted, he needs at least a few hundred high-grade spirit stones to replenish it with high-grade spirit stones, so he said that these earth spirit milk are not valuable.

But for Li Qiao, a little monk who is close to being poor and white, it can be regarded as a fortune, after all, the things he needs for a low-level monk like him are not of high value.

For a high-ranking monk, one bite is not enough to do anything, but it is enough for him to rejuvenate.

As soon as he discovered the Earth Spirit Milk, Li Qiao collected it and began to return to the clan land.

It was as if he had seen the Spirit Pill, and there were some spells that he especially wanted to learn beckoning to him again, imagining what he would look like after he had divine sense, and his steps of return were much brisker.

And on the way back, there was a small episode, Li Qiao followed the map he drew and went wrong.

Although the problem of drawing the map is not big, he measured it with his feet on the ground, and many terrains had to go around because of the mountains, rivers and valleys, Li Qiao wanted to walk around the edge of the family's control area, but in fact, he didn't know where to go for a long time.

Fortunately, it was not too far away, and the general direction was correct, and I finally returned to the clan land after going around and around.
