After flying out of the underground world, Liu Ming stood in front of the two cyan stone pillars, turned over his hand and took out the jade slip left by the young man surnamed Li at the beginning, and pasted it on his forehead.

He didn't take this matter to heart at the time, but now that the young man surnamed Li and the disciple of the Demon Xuanzong have both fallen, and the time he spent refining the mountains and rivers beads has greatly exceeded his expectations, instead of going to the Taiqing Sect to round out, it is better to go and investigate alone.

Since the young man surnamed Li originally thought that three fake Dan stage monks would be able to enter here, he thought that the risk of coming there should not be too great, and now that he has the mountains and rivers beads in his hand, as long as he is cautious, it should not be a problem.

After thinking like this, Liu Ming packed up his things without hesitation, and after recalling Fei'er Scorpion, with the help of Scorpion's escape technique, he left this underground ruin and broke through the sky in the direction recorded by Yu Jian.

Tens of thousands of miles away from the ice and snow polar region is a huge dense forest.

If you look at it from the air, the whole dense forest is a dense dark green, but if you enter the dense forest, it is a different scenery.

In the mottled eyes, blood-colored vines hugged the thick trunks of the trees, and the trunks were covered with small golden insects the size of fingernails, and fruits the size of fists hung like lanterns on the branches.

These fruits also faintly emit a soft spiritual light, reflecting the whole dense forest.

A purple light galloped over the dense forest, and above a purple flying sword in the light, Liu Ming, who was dressed in a green robe, was looking around with a vigilant look.

Since he left the ruins, he has followed the location marked in the jade slip of the young man surnamed Li, combined with the records in the map of the sect. All the way to here.

According to his estimates, as long as he crossed the dense forest directly. You will be able to reach your destination directly.

As for the situation in the dense forest, he had already released his divine sense to investigate it from afar. Those spirit insects are just the most common low-level spirit insects, and the lantern-like fruit can be used as low-level feed for spirit pets, but it has almost no effect on Fei'er and scorpions in the crystallization stage.

However, the vastness of this dense forest is far beyond Liu Ming's expectations, and it has been flying for more than two hours, and the end of the dense forest has not yet been seen.

At this moment, the void in front of him fluctuated, and the entire space suddenly trembled. A somewhat unusual aura wafted by.

Seeing this, Liu Ming pinched the Dharma in his hand, and the bitter wheel sword on the sole of his foot let out a clear sound, and stopped in place in the void with a tremble.

He released his divine sense and swept forward, and found that somewhere more than a hundred miles away, a large piece had faintly collapsed, and a large amount of spiritual energy was constantly gushing outward.

After Liu Ming groaned slightly, he put away the Bitter Wheel Sword under his feet, and slowly flew towards the center of the aura fluctuation with his feet on a black cloud.

Miles away for him. Almost instantly, I found that a piece of heart that had obviously just collapsed not long ago actually stood a towering giant tree with a diameter of dozens of zhang.

At the base of the giant tree, there is a huge tree hole. There are faint traces of the ban that have been broken around, and it seems that someone has already taken the lead.

Nine times out of ten, this is where the ruins told by the monk surnamed Li are located, but it seems that someone has taken the first step. It was also broken through the nearby ground from the inside out, and escaped.

The little golden worms on the ground were crawling in line into the hollows of the trees. It's as if there's something inside that's attracting them.

Liu Ming's face sank, but since it was already here. Naturally, he was not willing to leave empty-handed like this, and after a little groaning, he immediately landed at the bottom of the giant tree.

After making sure there was nothing unusual around him, he staggered into the hollow of the tree.

As a result, as soon as Fang entered the tree hole, he found that there was a cave inside, and it was actually a hall embedded in a giant tree.

The hall is very open, with tables, chairs, and cabinets carved out of trees, and behind the hall there is a passage that spirals upwards and a passage that spirals down.

Liu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he subconsciously released his divine sense to probe it, but after his divine thoughts stretched out more than ten zhang away along the upper and lower passages, he was immediately blocked back by some kind of prohibition.

In desperation, he had to walk up the passage first.

As a result, after some exploration, it turned out that along this spiraling passage, there were more than ten inner chambers that were also embedded in the interior of the giant tree.

The doors of each inner chamber have long been destroyed, but there is a small partition forbidden circle at the door, so it's no wonder that the divine sense can't invade it.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Ming returned to the door of the first inner room and stepped in.

This is a room about the size of an acre, and there is a small dark room separated from each other, large and small insect eggs and feed are scattered all over the place, and at a glance it is clear that this was once a secret room for raising spirit insects.

If you look at it from the point of view of the pattern, these have at least raised dozens of kinds of spirit insects, but now they can be described as a mess, the dark room has long been ransacked, there are discarded insect bags and beast rings everywhere, and the golden insects crawling in from outside the cave are gathering densely, eating the dead eggs and feed of the remaining spirit insects with relish.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Ming put away the insect eggs in the ground with one hand, and then walked to other inner rooms, tirelessly searching for them from room to room.

After a meal, in the hall of the cave mansion, Liu Ming looked at the pile of spirit insects and spirit beast corpses in front of him, and smiled bitterly with a slow face.

This pioneer had searched too thoroughly, except for the corpses of some unseen spirit insects and spirit beasts, there were some dead eggs, and there were hardly anything too valuable left.

Even the two inner rooms at the top of the giant tree, where the suspected bedroom and the practice room were located, were also empty, and not even a single spirit grass could be seen.

Liu Ming, who found nothing, had no choice but to collect the corpses of spirit insects and spirit beasts scattered around these houses, as well as the dead eggs of various insects and beasts, hoping that these corpses and dead eggs would also have value, and in the future, the ruins would be handed over to the sect to fill the number, or sell them as refining materials to sell some spirit stones, so that they would not enter this place and return empty-handed.

After putting everything in front of him into the Sumeru ring, he walked towards the passage that spiraled down.

As expected, there were five inner chambers below, but the situation was more or less the same as the inner chamber above.

However, just as Liu Ming walked into the last secret room and was about to put away the dead eggs scattered all over the ground, the voice of a scorpion suddenly came from the soul nourishing bag on his waist.

"The host is slow...... The breath here is not quite right, and as soon as I enter here, I can't help but tremble, as if there is a natural enemy who can restrain me. ”

The scorpion's words were filled with deep fear.

"Natural enemies?" Liu Ming's expression changed slightly when he heard this.

"Master, I also feel a sense of unity here, and although it is a little faint, it still makes me feel very uncomfortable. In the other soul pouch, Fei'er also said with a little fear.

"Oh?"

He had already experienced the scorpion's treasure hunting powers, and now even Fei'er said the same, which made Liu Ming feel a little strange, and hurriedly swept into the house again.

In this spirit beast house, there was a large piece of light golden beast eggs scattered all over the ground, as far as he knew, these were the eggs of a demon beast called the three-crowned golden rooster beast, and the breath was almost completely empty, and it was obviously the appearance of dead eggs.

Speaking of which, the Triple Crown Golden Rooster Beast is a relatively ordinary fire attribute spirit beast, although it is quite rare in the Zhongtian Continent, it is not a rare thing, and the general spirit beast trading market will have this egg for sale, and one can be purchased with more than 100,000 spirit stones.

After this beast is carefully cultivated, it is possible for adults to reach the strength of the condensation stage, and its personality is fierce and abnormal, it is generally acquired by the family or the sect to accumulate actual combat experience for the disciples of the condensation stage, and it is impossible for the scorpions and Fei'er who have already advanced to the crystallization stage to bring any fear.

Liu Ming carefully swept through the insect eggs one by one with his divine sense, but did not find anything unusual, nor did he find the eggs of the beast with a powerful breath.

So he patted the soul nourishing bag on his waist, and two volumes of mist, one black and one green, floated out, and the figures of scorpions and Fei'er appeared under the dripping and condensing.

"Since you two can sense its existence, let it out. Liu Ming commanded directly.

"Yes, master. Fei'er and Scorpion replied in unison.

In the following time, the two spirit pets began to lean down and carefully examine the beast eggs in the house one by one.

After a while, Fei'er suddenly held a beast egg with a faint golden light in her hand, and ran towards Liu Ming with a shake.

"Master, I found it, this is it!"

Seeing this, the scorpion hurriedly threw the dead egg in his hand, and the black gas also appeared near Fei'er, and after looking at the golden egg in his hand, he took a step back with deep fear.

"That's right, master, it's this egg. ”

Liu Ming moved his fingers, picked up the beast egg from Fei'er's hand, and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully.

This egg is slightly smaller than the egg, the whole body is pale gold, and there are some faint white markings on the beast egg, but the breath it releases is vague, which is somewhat similar to the egg of the holy beast obtained from the sea tribe back then.

This egg is no different except that it is a small circle larger than the ordinary three-crowned golden rooster egg, and the difference in the size of the egg is an extremely common situation, and it is impossible to judge what kind of mutation it is.

Liu Ming swept the egg with his divine sense again, and there was chaos inside, and there was no abnormality in the slightest.

However, since Fei'er and Scorpion both had some strange feelings about them, he naturally didn't dare to ignore them too much.

In the following time, he tried various methods, such as infusing mana into it, or using special talismans to identify the level of spirit beasts, but he did not get any clear results.

After a cup of tea, Liu Ming shook his head helplessly.

"Master, we don't know what's going on, but this beast egg does ......" Fei'er scratched her head when she saw this, and said with a confused face. (To be continued......) R1292
