The moon and stars are scarce, the frogs and cicadas are singing, accompanied by a gust of breeze, Qiao Yuan took out a pot of wine, lay on the rocking chair, and thought about the next road while drinking himself.

"I will first cultivate here until the foundation is completed, and then go back to Qingfeng Village. ”

Qiao Yuan took a sip of wine and muttered in a low voice.

Since he has come here, Qingfeng Village must go back, but he has gained many opportunities in the Grass Spirit Valley, and his cultivation has also increased significantly.

As for returning to Qingfeng Village, Qiao Yuan planned to swallow the blue sky fruit there and hit the Jindan period.

After Jin Dan was successful, Qiao Yuan thought about traveling to other parts of the Nantai Continent for a period of time to gain some knowledge and avoid the limelight by the way.

With a decision, Qiao Yuan faced the moonlight, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate the Qingyue Heart Sutra, which had not been cultivated for a long time.

Because there is no distinction between day and night in the Grass Spirit Valley, Qiao Yuan has not cultivated the Qingyue Heart Sutra during his time in the Grass Spirit Valley.

However, he has practiced the technique of the wind rising, and there is also the six poles of the Six Extremes Ming Wang Gong, and Qiao Yuan has also made progress.

The cold moonlight sprinkled on Qiao Yuan's body, as if he was wearing a frost coat, making his fair and delicate face even more fresh and refined, as if he was not stained with a trace of mortal dust.

At this moment, Qiao Yuan has a rather unique temperament, not as cold as Qu Yunwei, rejecting people thousands of miles away, and not like Su Zhen like an immortal monarch above the nine heavens, which is unattainable.

But this temperament is precisely in between, making people feel close in front of them, but they are reluctant to get close, so as not to let the atmosphere of mortal dust spoil this beautiful scene.

"What kind of exercise is this? It's so mysterious. ”

Zhan Yuan stood in front of the bamboo window, looking at Qiao Yuan quietly, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he muttered in a low voice.

He has cultivated profoundly, has extensive knowledge, and it is not that he has never seen the exercises cultivated with the help of moonlight.

But he had never seen that cultivating with moonlight could make such a big change in a person's temperament.

If it weren't for Qiao Yuan's spiritual power and divine sense, Zhan Yuan would almost have suspected that Qiao Yuan at this moment was no longer him.

The night passed slowly, and when the first rays of the early morning sun were sprinkled, Qiao Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and the temperament on his body disappeared, but his whole person looked more energetic.

"Xiaoyuan, the old man is going to go out to find some auxiliary medicines, Yao'er will ask you to take care of it for the time being. ”

When Qiao Yuan got up, Zhan Yuan walked out of the bamboo house, his face showed appreciation, and he didn't ask him about practicing the exercises, but said about going out.

Everyone has their own chances and secrets, and even if Zhan Yuan is an elder, he has no right to interfere and interrogate, so even if he is quite curious, he doesn't say a word about Qiao Yuan's cultivation.

Qiao Yuan had planned to cultivate here to the consummation of foundation building, so it was understandable to take care of Zhan Yao, so he hurriedly nodded and agreed.

Zhan Yuan was still extremely relieved of Qiao Yuan, and when he saw him nodding, he laughed and turned around and went to Zhan Yao's room.

After a while, a long rainbow passed by in the sky, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only two figures on the ground who looked up.

"Brother Qiao, where did Grandpa go?"

Zhan Yao rubbed her big eyes that woke up from sleep, pulled Qiao Yuan's sleeves, and said glutinously.

Qiao Yuan squatted down, brushed the little girl's messy hair behind his ears, and said with a chuckle: "Grandpa has gone outside the mountain, and he will be back in a few days." ”

Then Qiao Yuan took Zhan Yao to wash up, made her a delicious breakfast, and released Bai Yue and let it play with the little girl, while Qiao Yuan came to the waterfall where he practiced back then.

Looking at the endless waterfall, scenes of the past echoed in his heart, and he had been cultivating under this waterfall for a whole year.

Thinking about it, Qiao Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and flew towards the waterfall.

The waterfall cascades down from a cliff, and above the waterfall is a large river about ten feet wide.

Qiao Yuan flew all the way against the river, heading upstream, while his divine sense kept sweeping the bottom of the river, as if looking for something.

It turned out that after Qiao Yuan entered the realm of Weixin, he went up the waterfall and felt a strong call at the bottom of the riverbed.

At that time, Qiao Yuan was hindered by cultivation, and Zhanyuan was nearby, so he didn't go to explore the secret, but now that Qiao Yuan thought about it, he was interested for a while, and he planned to find out why there was a call for him at the bottom of the riverbed.

After flying about three hundred zhang against the current, Qiao Yuan's heart jumped, and the feeling of calling came again.

A strange glint flashed in Qiao Yuan's eyes, and without thinking, he went directly into the river and swam towards the bottom of the river.

The feeling of calling became stronger and stronger, and Qiao Yuan only felt that he was about to find the source, but at this moment, a huge vortex suddenly appeared in the river, rolling him in.

Qiao Yuan still remembered that he also found this place back then, but he was suddenly swept into this whirlpool, and then he fell short and fell into the waterhole along the waterfall.

However, at this moment, it was no longer what it used to be, Qiao Yuan's whole body spiritual power surged, and a light curtain was immediately formed around his body, no matter how turbulent the vortex was, it could not affect his body.

Qiao Yuan crossed the whirlpool and continued to go upstream towards the river, and finally under a boulder, where he sensed that the call was most intense.

Qiao Yuan did not hesitate at all, immediately sank to the bottom of the river, stood beside the big stone, and raised his hand to slowly move the big stone away.

After the boulder moved away, what appeared in front of Qiao Yuan was a person who could only pass through the mouth of the pitch-black hole, looking at the mouth of the cave, the call became stronger and stronger.

"What the hell is in here?"

For a moment, Qiao Yuan fell into indecision, and secretly said in his heart.

After a while, Qiao Yuan still made up his mind to go in and take a look, not because he was too curious, but because he felt that this kind of call would not be without reason, it must be related to himself.

With a decision, Qiao Yuan did not hesitate at all, and jumped directly into the mouth of the pitch-black hole, his divine sense always spreading, paying attention to the movement below.

The entrance to the cave was narrow at first, but it became wider and wider the further down it went, and in the end, Qiao Yuan seemed to find himself entering an underground river.

The underground river was much bigger than the river on the waterfall, and the raging water was so cold that Qiao Yuan didn't pay any attention to it, but traced the call straight to the bottom of the river.

The river was extremely deep, and Joe hiking and diving more than fifty zhang before he saw the bottom of the river.

However, the moment he saw the bottom of the river, Qiao Yuan couldn't help but gasp, and his expression changed greatly and hurriedly fled towards the top of the river.

When Qiao Yuan escaped more than thirty zhang, he found that there was no movement below, and under the change of expression, he mustered up his courage again and dived towards the bottom of the river.

It didn't take long for Qiao Yuan to come to the bottom of the river again and saw small blue fish with arms long floating in the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river.

Those herring fish looked very ordinary, if ordinary people saw them, they would definitely regard them as common wild fish in the river, but Qiao Yuan recognized them at a glance, those fish were all famous spirit devouring fish.

The Spirit Devourer is a kind of social demon beast, and its individual strength is not strong, but they have a tyrannical personality, and no matter how powerful the opponent is, they will rush to it and are not afraid of death.

Qiao Yuan glanced at the bottom of the lake, it was actually dense, and there were countless spirit devouring fish all over it, and it was impossible to count them.

Qiao Yuan only felt that his scalp was a little numb, not to mention that these multi-devouring spirit fish were a foundation building monk, even if he was a Yuan Infant stage monk, he would run away.

However, for some unknown reason, these Spirit Eaters were all motionless, lurking at the bottom of the river, as if they were dormant.

If it weren't for this, even if he borrowed another 10,000 guts from Qiao Yuan, he wouldn't dare to turn back, but even so, Qiao Yuan didn't dare to act rashly, his eyes swept over those spirit devouring fish, and his expression was extremely solemn.

"It's there. ”

Qiao Yuan said secretly in his heart, staring at a place where the Spirit Devouring Fish gathered the most densely, and he felt that the strong call was coming from there.

Looking at those dense spirit devouring fish piled up there like a hill, Qiao Yuan really didn't dare to go over.

In case these Spirit Devouring Fish suddenly woke up, then he would have no other way but to enter the Space Bead, but even if he entered the Space Bead, he could only hide in it forever and dare not come out.

"To go or not to go?"

Suddenly, Qiao Yuan fell into a difficult choice again, but it didn't take long for Qiao Yuan's eyes to flash with a decisive and resolute look.

If it is because of some dangers and retreats, then why did he leave Qingfeng Village in the first place, and honestly stay in the village to live an ordinary and safe life.

With a decision, Qiao Yuan found a place with the fewest spirit devouring fish and tested it with a small spell.

Sure enough, as he expected, these Spirit Devouring Fish were in a deep dormant state, and under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to wake up.

Qiao Yuan showed a hint of joy on his face, and said in a low voice: "Since this is the case, it is better to catch a few and raise them." ”

Although the Spirit Devourer Fish is famous, because of its soul-devouring properties, it can transform the mixed aura into pure aura, and in the eyes of high-level monks, the Spirit Devouring Fish is a monster beast that can not be encountered.

Qiao Yuan didn't dare to catch more, but just collected ten juvenile fish and put them into the waterhole of the space bead.

But what I never expected was that as soon as the young fish fell into the pool, they all opened their eyes and woke up.

"Master, this is ...... Spirit Eater?"

Cang Tai was originally cultivating in meditation, but the awakening of the devouring spirit fish immediately stirred up the waterhole and made it unable to cultivate with peace of mind.

Qiao Yuan showed a wry smile on his face, and hurriedly said, "That's right, you can reach out and take a look." ”

He didn't expect that these juvenile fish would wake up as soon as they left here, but fortunately, Qiao Yuan only caught ten juvenile fish, if there were more, or ten adult spirit devouring fish, I am afraid he would be a little difficult to control.

"This ...... These are all Spirit Devouring Fish?"

At this moment, Cang Taiji was shocked to say the words, obviously seeing the dense spirit devouring fish at the bottom of the river, even it was frightened.

"These ten juveniles, you have to find a way to make them honest. ”

Qiao Yuan didn't have time to explain, and directly transmitted the message to Cang Tai, with its strength, this little thing was still not a problem.

With a bottom in his heart, Qiao Yuan did not rush to act, but laid out one formation after another at the bottom of this river, and these formations were all trapped formations without exception.

If something happens, with these trapped formations, although it is impossible to trap all the Spirit Eater Fish, it will still take some time for most Spirit Eater Fish to break out of the trapped formation.

In a flash, it was one day, and Qiao Yuan had laid more than ten trapping formations at the bottom of the river, enveloping eighty percent of the spirit devouring fish in this place.

As for the other Spirit Devouring Fish, because they were too scattered, he couldn't trap them all.

After doing this, Qiao Yuan slowly swam towards the place where the Spirit Devouring Fish gathered the most, looking at the mountain of Spirit Devouring Fish, he only felt that his scalp was numb and his heart was pounding.

But he didn't flinch from fear on his face, and took out the broken mountain stick, and Qiao Yuan slowly pushed those spirit devouring fish away.

After a long time, Qiao Yuan saw a faint light under the fish mountain, and the sense of calling became more and more intense, so that he couldn't help but want to rush over and grab that little light.
