Chapter 69: There's a Cave Here
Two days later, Li Xuangang and his entourage were close to the edge of the family's area of responsibility. They searched the forest, but they didn't come across any monsters.
At this point, the night has begun. Because there is a faint moonlight, the light does not appear dim.
Just when Li Xuantian decided to follow the plan, take Li Xuangang and the other three to go back and return to the Lingshan stronghold.
However, they found a huge karst cave, and the huge aura fluctuations that overflowed from the cave.
After feeling this level of aura fluctuations, Li Xuangang and the other four immediately stopped their figures. Then, in the first time, he activated the first-order high-grade breath charm given to him by his seventh uncle, Li Changzhi, and suppressed his breath to the limit.
Li Xuangang quickly glanced at the direction of the cave, and then whispered to Li Xuantian, Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu around him:
"This level of aura fluctuation is already beyond the scope of the Qi refining period, and it is very likely that there is a demon beast that has reached the third order in it. ”
Hearing this, Li Xuantian also nodded and said:
"I have the same opinion as Xuan Gang, judging from the aura coming out of it, this is very similar to the third-order colorful tiger we encountered in Lingshan before, although the aura in this is not as violent as the colorful tiger, but it is definitely not something we can deal with. ”
Then, in order to ensure safety, the four of them carefully and quickly retreated some distance behind.
They didn't stop until they felt they were far enough away from the location of the cave.
In order to make his prediction more accurate, Li Xuantian took the other three to climb a high ground around him.
On this high ground, you can see the entrance to the cave.
When they reached the top of this high ground, the four of them found a place to hide their figures, and then with a trace of nervousness, they cautiously observed the entrance of the cave.
As the fluctuations of the aura inside became bigger and bigger, Li Xuangang's brows began to wrinkle, and his expression became serious, as if he had thought of something.
Li Xuangang thought for a moment before he said softly:
"I think the aura fluctuations in the cave are a little weird, huh...... It didn't seem to be as pure as the aura emanating from those third-order demon beasts we'd seen. ”
Hearing Li Xuangang say this, Li Xuankun and Li Xuanyu were a little dazed, they didn't notice anything unusual, but they knew that the ninth brother Li Xuangang would not be untargeted, so they subconsciously turned their heads to look at the second brother Li Xuantian, wanting to get some answers from him.
Similarly, after observing this moment, Li Xuantian also began to feel that the aura fluctuations inside were a little unusual.
Moreover, Li Xuantian has a more powerful divine sense than Li Xuangang, so he has perceived more things than him.
Li Xuantian took Li Xuangang's words, and then combined with his own perceptual breath and said:
"Xuan Gang is right, I suspect that there is not only a third-order demon beast in this cave. Because from the aura fluctuations coming out of the entrance of the cave, in addition to sensing the aura belonging to the third-order demon beast, I also sensed a ...... Belong to the breath of a monk. ”
After saying this, Li Xuantian pondered for a moment before continuing:
"Other than that...... Well...... I also felt another breath, which was unstable, but peaceful, and I seemed to have sensed it there, but I couldn't remember it for a while. ”
Hearing Li Xuantian say what he perceived, Li Xuangang immediately discerned the abnormalities in these aura fluctuations.
In addition, he also had some guesses about the unstable but very peaceful aura that Li Xuantian said.
Li Xuangang silently estimated in his heart how likely his guess was, and he felt that his guess was already eight or nine.
So after hesitating for a moment, Li Xuangang still said his thoughts.
"If I'm not wrong, the last breath that the second brother said should belong to a spirit plant that has just advanced, because only a spirit plant that has just advanced will have this unstable but peaceful aura, judging from the aura fluctuations it emits, I guess it is a spirit plant that has just entered the third order, but I don't know exactly what kind it is. ”
Hearing Li Xuangang's words, Li Xuantian also reacted, and then said:
"Listening to Xuan Gang's reminder, I also remembered where I had felt this familiar aura, this aura is very similar to the green plum spirit tree on the top of Taiqiu Mountain, but its breath is not as strong as the green plum spirit tree. ”
Speaking of this, Li Xuantian glanced at Li Xuangang, and then said:
In this case, it seems that Xuan Gang's inference is correct. ”
Although the four people who came to a general conclusion still didn't know anything about the situation in the cave, they had some idea.
After the analysis of Li Xuantian and Li Xuangang, Li Xuanyu's worries were put down a lot.
At the beginning, when he was assigned to the team with his second brother Li Xuantian and ninth brother Li Xuangang, he was still a little worried, because there were no elders in the team. But from this period of time, it seems that his worries are a little unnecessary.
Whether it's combat power, or how to deal with trouble. The second brother Li Xuantian and the ninth brother Li Xuangang were both the best among the qi refining cultivators they had seen.
In addition, when Li Xuanyu was in Taiqiu Mountain, he knew that the ninth brother Li Xuangang was quite talented for spiritual plants, but he didn't expect that he could actually judge that there was a spiritual plant that had just entered the third order just by the breath of a fluctuating spiritual aura.
Although Li Xuanyu didn't feel this breath, judging from the evaluation of the second brother Li Xuantian, most of the speculation of the ninth brother Li Xuangang was true.
......
The four of them probably waited here for a cup of tea, and then found that the aura fluctuations coming out of the cave began to intensify, and there was even a tendency to gradually spread towards the cave entrance.
Feeling this trend, Li Xuantian reminded:
"Watch out for the suppressed breath. ”
The other three did the same, even though they were on high ground and some distance from the cave. It stands to reason that it won't be perceived by the third-order demon beasts inside, but it's always right to be careful.
After the four of them suppressed their breath a lot, a figure suddenly flew out of the cave.
Without waiting for Li Xuangang and the four of them to react, a long black shadow followed this figure closely.
Huge waves stirred up in the hearts of the four of them, and it turned out that this was a battle between a foundation building period monk and a third-order demon beast.
And the four of them also recognized this third-order demon beast, which was equivalent to a Hessian python in the early stage of foundation building. In their sight, this Hessian python was more than ten zhang long.
Next, on a flat ground in the Cave Mansion, the third-order Hessian python stopped the foundation building monk, and then a big battle broke out between them.
And it was clear that the foundation-building monk was on the losing edge.
However, Li Xuangang and the four of them had no intention of helping, so they quietly watched the development of the situation, and were thinking about how to deal with this matter in order to bring the greatest benefit to the family.
The reason why the four of them did this was that, on the one hand, the four of them only had the cultivation of the Qi Refining Period, and they were not qualified to participate in this level of battle. On the other hand, even if the four of them are already capable of participating, I am afraid they will still choose to sit idly by.
This is the normal state of the cultivation realm. As long as they are not relatives or fellow monks, most monks do not have the urge to draw swords to help each other. Even from the first step into the cultivation realm, the teachers in the sect and the elders in the family will consciously cultivate this concept of theirs.
The two sides involved in the battle were already a big realm ahead of Li Xuangang and the four of them, and a single blow could kill them, so it stands to reason that they should run as far as they can while they are not discovered at this moment.
But this kind of battle of building the base layer is not common for the four Li clans in the Qi refining period.
Whether it was to better deal with this incident in the future, or to understand the battle between the Tsukiji realm, they had to continue to watch.
The former reason is to provide the family with more detailed information for future action. The latter reason is to increase some experience in dealing with demon beasts in the foundation building period.
Of course, the four of them stayed here to observe the battle situation, except for these two reasons.
One of the most important reasons is that the four of them think that they are in a safe environment and will not be affected by this battle, and if they perceive the slightest danger, they will probably slip away as usual.
......
As time passed, the battle was getting closer and closer to the end, and the four of Li Xuangang were more careful to hide their breath.
Because after the foundation building period monk and the third-order Hessian python were separated, the remaining side would have no interference, and their perception ability would definitely be improved by a level, and maybe they would sense their existence.
However, since the four of them still dare to stay here, it is not without their reliance, their reliance is on the breath talisman given to them by the seventh uncle Li Changzhi, as long as this talisman is still valid, then the probability of them being found is not large.
At the end of the sight of the four of them, the foundation building monk was suspended in mid-air, holding a sword-shaped magic weapon that was steaming with fiery red qi in his hand.
But his condition is not very good, and he already has some injuries on his body at this time, and he can't release them accurately when using spells.
Of all the injuries he suffered, a penetrating wound to his back was the most severe.
This was due to the fact that he had just entered this cave, and was temporarily attracted by the third-order spirit plant inside, and was attacked by the lurking Hessian python without noticing.
It is precisely because of this that he was suppressed by this Hessian python of the same rank from time to time in the subsequent battles.
At this point, he already knew that he had little chance of getting that third-order spirit plant again, so he began to want to get out of the meaningless battle with this Hessian python.
But the third-order Hessian python confronting him didn't think so, and while speeding up its own attack, it consciously blocked the retreat of this human foundation building monk.
Gradually, the foundation building monk also knew about the Hessian python's intentions, but he had no better way.
Seriously injured, he could only be tired of dealing with the endless attacks of this Hessian python at this time, and there was no way to break through the opponent's defense.
And whenever he was about to break through the air, the Hessian python could always accurately condense a water arrow from its mouth and launch an attack to block his flight away.
When he felt that the spiritual power in his body was getting less and less, the foundation building monk knew that he couldn't go on like this, and he had to find a way to get rid of the entanglement of this Hessian python, otherwise it was very likely that today would be the day of his death.
After that, he seemed to be ruthless, and took out a silver talisman from the storage bag.
But this Hessian python also discovered his move, and also sensed the huge energy contained in the silver talisman, so it didn't give him time to activate this talisman at all.
For a while, the two sides fell into a stalemate, and the monk of the foundation building was dodging the attack of the Hessian python while struggling to find an opportunity to cast the talisman.
