Chapter 7: The Immortal Trail Looms
"It's really a strange place, obviously there is nothing special, but there are so many complicated formations and prohibitions firmly surrounded outside, as if there is indeed a great secret hidden in the middle. ...... I don't know who it was, who spent a lot of energy to build these things, but now it's wasted like this!" Walking cautiously in the mysterious valley, Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel strange for a while.
This place is completely no different from his previous judgment, looking at it, it is an ordinary closed valley, there is not much that can attract attention, if you don't count the various formations and prohibitions arranged around it, it is definitely not a difficult thing to find a few similar places again among the endless mountains and valleys, and after a little thought, you will definitely be able to gain a lot.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that he was completely trapped here by those formations and prohibitions on the outskirts of the valley, and he had to find some key tricks from them to successfully break through those things, he really wouldn't want to risk going to this kind of place.
The more ordinary this place looks like and harmless to people and animals, the more likely it is that there are some things hidden in it that ordinary people don't expect at all, and maybe when it will pop up and give him a big "surprise".
The things in the cultivation world must not be looked at with ordinary eyes, and no one knows if some items that don't seem to be special will suddenly show a completely different appearance, catching everyone off guard.
In the vast universe, things that are worthy of the name and the same on the outside do occupy a large part, and what it looks like on the outside is what kind of category its internal attributes are; Especially on those living planets that can provide cultivators with survival, that kind of thing will emerge in an endless stream, and it will be dizzying.
For example, the Holy Martial Continent that Ye Qiuli is in now is a place that is very suitable for cultivators to live and cultivate, and I don't know how many heavenly and earthly treasures with special attributes and extraordinary effects grow, and how many cultivation and demon cultivation masters with advanced cultivation and amazing strength are filled, and any kind of thing related to cultivators that appears in this kind of place must be greatly noticed.
This kind of requirement is not a superfluous act to find trouble, but an inevitable norm to ensure the safety of a cultivator's life to the greatest extent, and anyone who neglects this will eventually be mortally punished for his actions.
This is the most basic survival rule in the cultivation world, and no one can be an exception, just Ye Qiuli, who is just in the middle and late stage realm of distraction, is naturally the same. At this moment, he had to muster all his spirits and slowly explore the depths of the valley step by step.
Fortunately, on his body, there are also several extremely magical Spiritual Guides that can successfully teleport the user to tens of thousands of miles away in an instant, and once he encounters any danger, he can have an effect if he smashes it on the ground, and he will not waste any time.
It was precisely because he had such a means of pressing the bottom of the box in his hand that could play a decisive role at a critical moment that Ye Qiuli dared to go alone to explore and travel in this mysterious valley that seemed to be absolutely not simple. If he didn't have that kind of thing, he might really have to take a huge risk to do it, and then the final outcome would be completely out of his control.
The Retreat Spirit Channel, which is refined from the top heaven and earth treasure Xuancitrine as the main material, is indeed an extremely effective life-saving artifact, as long as it is successfully used, there is very little that can stop the user's actions again, and in the end it will definitely be able to escape unharmed. The great value of this magical treasure is really evident from this, and no matter how much emphasis is placed, it is not too much.
It's a pity that if you want to refine that kind of thing, in addition to having a master-level refining level as the foundation, you also need to have a rare top-level heavenly and earthly treasure Xuancitrine as the main material, ordinary people can't meet that kind of condition at all, no matter how much they force it, they can't do anything.
At this time, although Ye Qiuli relied on his own ability and collection to successfully refine this kind of superb treasure, its number was very rare, and there were only three or five pieces when it was full.
It's not that Ye Qiuli doesn't want to refine more of this magical treasure, it's really that Xuancitrine is indeed too precious and rare, even with his incomparably rich collection, he still hasn't stored much, and he can't let go of his hands and feet to make it on a large scale.
Treasures such as fire crystals, heavy dust, fire element crystals, basintrine, earth fire crystals, flame crystals, red refining fire copper, fire gold steel, Taiyi pure gold, Taiyi fine silver, etc., basically appear in volcanic lava or earth fire magma, and it is difficult to find traces in other places.
And if you want to successfully obtain those things, in addition to relying on your own cultivation and magic weapons that are far beyond ordinary people, and personally enter the underground magma to collect, the rest can only wait until the volcano erupts and slowly rummage through those solidified and cold-frozen volcanic lava.
The former is dangerous, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may take your own life, which is really beyond the reach of ordinary people, and the latter is also extremely troublesome, even if you smash all the volcanic lava and search carefully, you may not be able to find much of what you want.
Anyway, if you want to get those things smoothly, it is definitely not a simple matter, in addition to the party's cultivation strength and magic weapon equipment must be very outstanding, even chance and luck must be good to a certain extent. Other than that, there wasn't much chance of getting that kind of superb treasure at all, let alone using it as a spiritual material to refine various top-level magic weapons with magical effects.
Although Ye Qiuli's cultivation strength, magic weapon equipment, and luck were indeed all amazing, but he didn't encounter a suitable collection location, and he couldn't get those things in large quantities, and the similar items stored in his own Flowing Cloud Immortal Ring, even if they were far more than ordinary people, they still didn't have much more places to go, and he couldn't afford to waste them at will.
Therefore, even if he happened to be holding a Hidden Spirit Guide in his hand right now, Ye Qiuli still didn't plan to use it directly to leave this mysterious closed valley, and still raised all his mind, slowly walking towards the depths of the valley step by step.
And the most critical reason why he took the risk of making this choice was to save the already few reclusive spirit guides, and save them for other more critical times. It's a bit of a waste to use that kind of treasure before the last minute.
......
"Hey, boy, who allowed you to wander around here!" Just as Ye Qiu was slowly searching carefully in this mysterious valley with three stops, suddenly a sudden shouting sound came from behind him, which almost made him collapse to the ground in fright.
"Ahh
"Hehe, put away the flying sword, that kind of thing can't hurt me. If I want to kill you, you won't even have the slightest chance to resist!" Hearing Ye Qiuli's frightened shout, although the man still didn't show up, the laughter came quickly.
"Well, senior, please bear with me, this is a conditioned reflex, and I didn't notice it for a while!" Hearing the mysterious man's chuckle without the slightest malice, Ye Qiuli quickly withdrew the Dragon Flame Flying Sword that was about to erupt, and turned to a solemn face to confess in a row.
The reason why I took out this top-level treasure before was also to prevent some accidents that I had not expected at all, and I wanted to be able to defend in time when the crisis suddenly came, and launch the most ferocious counterattack at the first time.
At this time, since he had already determined that there were no other dangerous situations in this valley, and the cultivation strength of the only cultivator who could pose a fatal threat to him was far beyond his own, he naturally didn't waste any more thought in this regard, and did countless useless efforts in vain.
With his level of cultivation in the Distraction Realm, and the comprehensive combat power of the combined master, if he really encountered some cultivators in the late stage of the Tribulation and Mahayana realm, or the Scattered Immortal Masters of the third or fourth tribulation, five or six tribulations, even if he had those things in his hands, it would not have much effect in the end. If you want to turn defeat into victory or escape from defeat, it is simply a fool's dream, and it is better to give up resistance early and be captured.
Therefore, after recognizing the reality, Ye Qiuli quickly gave up the idea of fighting with Yiyi, and instead carefully communicated with the mysterious man in a more humble attitude. The person who knows the times is Junjie, and this is what he is talking about.
Ye Qiuli didn't think that the mysterious master would say big things to deceive himself, because that was completely unnecessary, if that person wanted to capture and kill himself, he would suddenly attack when he was not exposed just now, and it would definitely have an unexpectedly powerful effect.
However, although he gave up the idea of confronting him head-on, Ye Qiuli did not intend to be caught just yet, but instead lured the reclusive spirit in his hand to a more suitable place, ready to smash it out at any time, and then escaped without a trace and slipped away.
It is difficult to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and no one knows what kind of character the mysterious master is, whether he will suddenly turn his face ruthlessly and cause him a fatal injury. So it never hurts to be a little more prepared!
Be prepared, take precautions, that kind of thing, is always not a wrong choice, once you really encounter it, maybe you can save your life with this, and prevent yourself from completely falling into a desperate situation of death and no life.
And even if the things you were guarding against didn't happen in the end, those preparations wouldn't waste much energy, and on the whole, the benefits far outweighed the disadvantages, and it was worth everyone's investment in that area.
As an experienced and wise senior cultivator, Ye Qiuli was naturally the same, making the necessary preparations anytime and anywhere, and would not be negligent and take it lightly when the situation was already peaceful. That kind of behavior has become his basic habit!
