Chapter 165: A Mountain on an Island
The vast East China Sea is so vast that no one can get a glimpse of it in its entirety.
The huge Limeng Island is only one of the islands in the East China Sea, but in the eastern border of Chaoyang Continent, it can indeed be regarded as the largest island overseas.
In addition to the largest island, there are countless small islands that can be found at sea from Marina City. Among them, there are many islands with low-level spiritual veins on them.
It is precisely because of this that generations of scattered cultivators are not afraid of the threat of demon beasts in the sea, and choose to retreat and cultivate on these inaccessible islands.
After all, cultivating on this kind of small island with low-level spiritual veins, they didn't have to pay spirit stones to anyone, and they could save a little resource for their own cultivation.
But this is not without risks, as previously said, the East China Sea is not under the control of human monks. There are many kinds of sea beasts in the sea area, and I don't know how many high-level sea beasts there are in it.
If one is not careful, these casual cultivators who choose to retreat on the island are very likely to fall prey to high-level sea beasts.
The most common news in Donghaifang City is not who has found any opportunity in the East China Sea, but which powerful monk has fallen in the East China Sea.
According to the clues, Zhu Guangshou found the cave mansion left behind by the foundation building monk was on a small island in the East China Sea.
......
Today's weather is very good, and the sea surface of the entire East China Sea is calm, and the warm sea breeze and the newborn morning sun create a peaceful environment.
In a corner of this nameless island, four figures were standing, and some of them looked into the dense forest in the middle of the island from time to time, as if they wanted to find something, but they found nothing!
Under the gaze of Li Xuangang and the others, Zhu Guangshou threw the compass into the air and began to pinch the magic trick in his hand.
As he cast the spell, the compass hovered in mid-air and began to spin from slow to rapid.
After a while, as the compass turned, a trace of aura began to appear on it. Just when Li Xuangang was surprised by the vision of this compass, the latter suddenly turned into a streamer and flew into the distance.
Seeing this, Zhu Guangshou did not panic, as if he had expected this. He said to Liu Yuanyang next to him:
"Please Liu Daoyou to take me for a ride, we need to keep up with the trail of this compass. ”
Hearing this, Li Xuangang probably guessed his plan. Obviously, he was going to let this compass lead the way!
......
So the next moment, Liu Yuanyang stretched out his hand and scooped Zhu Guangshou up and put it on his waist, and then turned into a ray of light and chased it in the direction where the compass disappeared.
Li Xuangang and Chen Yu, who stayed in place, glanced at each other, and both took off into the air, following closely behind Liu Yuanyang.
The powerful aura on the three of them did not converge, and when they flew over a dense forest, they also startled groups of seabirds, but they were all ordinary beasts, and none of them had spiritual power on them.
The four of them didn't fly away for long after the compass, and it was probably less than a pillar of incense, and the compass stopped at the foot of a mountain peak.
Seeing the compass stop, Zhu Guangshou was overjoyed and shouted:
"This is it!"
Immediately after, Liu Yuanyang took him to the ground, and Li Xuangang and Chen Yu behind him also followed them to descend in height.
The compass was still spinning, but the speed was even higher, and the spiritual power was not as disordered as it had just been.
After Li Xuangang landed, he turned his head to look at the surrounding environment, spread his consciousness again, and probed if there was anything unusual nearby. It turned out that there was no difference between this and other ordinary woodlands.
On the other side, Zhu Guangshou continued to pinch the magic trick, and it seemed that at the last moment, he bit his index finger in one bite, forcing out three drops of essence blood and splashing on the compass.
As soon as the three drops of essence blood touched the spinning compass, they turned into a thin layer of blood mist, which was then absorbed into it.
The next moment, a sudden change occurred, and I saw that the compass emitted a mist like black ink and climbed up the mountain.
When this black mist no longer emerged from the compass, it seemed that something in the void had been activated, and Li Xuangang noticed this change, and suddenly felt a little familiar.
When this change became more and more drastic, he suddenly remembered, isn't this the breath of the Mountain Guarding Circle being activated?
It turned out that someone had laid a mountain-guarding magic circle that covered the entire mountain peak, and the compass that Zhu Guangshou took before was the control weapon of this mountain-guarding magic array.
Under Zhu Guangshou's continuous control of the compass, a huge light curtain belonging to the mountain guarding magic circle began to slowly appear, but unlike the normal magic circle light curtain, this light curtain immediately dimmed after it lit up.
Seeing this scene, Li Xuangang judged by the classics he had read in the family library that there was a flaw in this magic circle that suddenly appeared.
He turned his head and glanced at Zhu Guangshou, and he didn't know if the flaws in this magic circle were caused by disrepair, or caused by Zhu Guangshou's actions just now?
The light curtain was bright yellow, and as time passed, the light of this mountain-guarding circle began to fluctuate, and a trace of heaven and earth aura also began to drill out of it through the light curtain of the magic circle.
At this moment, Zhu Guangshou shouted: "Open!"
Immediately, this layer of light curtain completely began to collapse and shatter.
This magic circle was actually opened by Zhu Guangshou like this!
Originally, I thought that breaking this prohibition of guarding the cave was the most difficult step, but I didn't expect that the three foundation building period monks didn't even move their hands, and this problem had been completely solved.
......
With the collapse of this mountain-guarding circle, an aura of astonishing concentration immediately poured out from behind the shattered light curtain.
Because these spiritual qi have been imprisoned in this mountain peak for too long, they have been released now, and they have turned into a huge torrent of spiritual energy, blowing Li Xuangang's clothes whirring.
Since he was in the midst of this aura torrent at this time, he couldn't judge what the spiritual vein level of this mountain peak was for the time being.
After waiting for half a cup of tea, this torrent of aura gradually dissipated, and the flow of aura began to become stable.
Liu Yuanyang, who was standing at the front of the four, waited until this torrent of spiritual energy dissipated, probed the surroundings with his divine sense, and then said with a hint of joy:
"There is actually a second-order low-grade spiritual vein hidden in this mountain peak. That senior monk was really generous, and he actually used a mountain-guarding magic circle to imprison all the spiritual energy exuded by the spiritual veins on this mountain peak. ”
Li Xuangang also felt the concentration of aura around him, and found that it was indeed as Liu Yuanyang said, the spiritual vein grade in this mountain peak had reached the second order lower grade.
Zhu Guangshou also showed a hint of joy on his face, and muttered:
"It seems that the ruins cave is here, and it is not in vain for all my years of travel. ”
It seems that the manipulation of that compass has overdrawn too much of Zhu Guangshou's aura, and when he said this, he was a little depressed.
Obviously, with the power of just one person to destroy this mountain-guarding magic array, he is not without a price!
Chen Yu, who was standing next to him, took a step closer to Zhu Guangshou, and while stretching out his hand to support him, he took out a second-order Qi Replenishing Pill from his storage bag.
Taking the elixir from Chen Yu's hand, Zhu Guangshou thanked him with difficulty, and then had to sit cross-legged on the ground to breathe!
Seeing his current situation, Li Xuangang couldn't help but ask:
"Zhu Daoyou, how do you feel?"
Zhu Guangshou replied in a weak voice:
"Senior Li don't worry, it's just too much aura for one-time use in a short period of time, and it's just a little prostration. After a while, you will recover naturally. ”
Judging from Zhu Guangshou's state, what he said is also true. So Li Xuangang also stopped his figure, raised his head, and looked at one of the entrances of this mountain peak with Liu Yuanyang.
This mountain peak is not very large, although there is a second-order low-grade spiritual vein in it, but the size and height of the mountain is only slightly larger than the second side peak of Taiqiu Mountain (Linghu Peak).
This mountain peak is full of aura, and the aura of some high-level spiritual plants can be clearly detected from above.
But the way up the hill seems to be only the trail in front of you!
Liu Yuanyang turned around and spoke to the three of them:
"Now that it has been confirmed that the cave of the foundation building period monk is on this, what are you going to do next?"
Li Xuangang smiled, first looked at Zhu Guangshou, who was cross-kneeling and refining the medicinal power of the pill in his body, and then raised his head and said to Liu Yuanyang:
"Liu Daoyou don't have to worry, since we have all come here, then the things on this mountain peak will not suddenly grow legs and run away. Besides, Zhu Daoyou was injured before because of the destruction of the mountain guarding array, and it was not fair for us to leave him here alone. ”
"Why don't we wait for Zhu Daoyou's body to recover before we act together?"
Liu Yuanyang didn't expect Li Xuangang to say such a thing, so he glanced at Li Xuangang with some confusion, and the latter smiled harmlessly.
In fact, Li Xuangang was thinking about Zhu Guangshou, he was afraid that after going up the mountain, Liu Yuanyang and Chen Yu would suddenly attack him, and he would not even have a hostage at that time. And here, if he can't be defeated, he can still capture Zhu Guangshou as a threat.
Judging from the situation of the three of them in the past few days, Liu Yuanyang and Chen Yu still care a lot about Zhu Guangshou.
Taking his eyes off Li Xuangang, Liu Yuanyang opened his mouth and said:
"Since Li Daoyou has proposed so, then let's wait for Zhu Daoyou to resume his actions, it just so happens that we can also take a rest ourselves, and the two Daoyou are also a little tired after a few days of running. ”
When Chen Yu heard this, he also nodded in agreement.
So next, the three of them also meditated cross-legged on the same place, and began to close their eyes and recuperate.
And Zhu Guangshou, who had injured a certain amount of vitality, has been working hard to recover the spiritual power that is lacking in his body.
About three hours passed, Zhu Guangshou exhaled a long breath of turbidity, then opened his eyes, looked at the three people sitting cross-legged around him, and said:
"The three seniors have almost recovered in the next, although they are still a little short of their peak state, but they think that there is no obstacle to the next action. The action can begin!"
Zhu Guangshou's voice woke up the three of them, and Li Xuangang also stood up and moved his body.
He glanced at the other three, and then at the entrance of the mountain peak not far away, and secretly sneered in his heart!
