40 The Treasure Dispute
The secret realm is the self-protection of heaven and earth.
It's like a tortoise with a shell, a squid with ink, and a weak deer with hard horns. Crude and vulgar things still have the ability to protect themselves, let alone natural treasures.
Often, the more high-grade natural treasures, the stronger the ability to protect oneself. For example, Huanggan, which is extremely bitter in the mouth, such as the Thousand Dead Fruit, which is extremely difficult to see with the naked eye, and for example, the spirit of the spar, which can always form a realm of its own and be hidden deep in the secret realm......
Only extremely high-grade heavenly and earthly treasures or spiritual treasures can form a secret realm.
There are three wonders in the world, and the secret realm is one of them.
Throughout the ages, countless sages have tried to peek into the mysteries of the secret realm, and countless sages have been wiped out because of their exploration of the secret realm. It's a pity that there are only two people who can really peek into the mysteries of the secret realm so far.
The first one is that the Demon Sect Sect Master has a cloud master. Youyun peeked through the secret realm, opened up the demon domain, and led the entire demon sect to enter the demon domain, and there were demons and demon cultivators in the world. The demons in the world are all descendants of the Demon Sect.
The second is the master of the secret realm of Wanjian Mountain, known as the sword slave. Although this person has long since died, his remnants of the primordial god can also resist the enemy with ten thousand swords and slash the hero in an instant.
The world believes that the third person who may peek into the mysteries of the secret realm is the supreme powerhouse of the Holy Realm, the Sword Emperor Gan Bupingβif he is still alive.
In this vast world, there may be a secret realm hidden anywhere.
The original empty place, after being marked with a spiritual trick by Yongyan Zhenren, a barrier of light and shadow appeared in front of everyone's eyes out of thin air.
The light and shadow formed by the convergence of spiritual energy are as stable as the surface of ice, indicating that no one has ever entered.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I think you all know enough about the secret realm. But for the sake of caution, I'll say a few more words here. Although there is only one gate to the secret realm, the location of this entrance is actually changing all the time relative to the secret realm itself. Therefore, after you enter the secret realm, you may be scattered everywhere. So, if you enter it and find it empty, don't be alarmed. Yongyan Zhenren said, "The entrance to the secret realm seems to be gentle, but in fact, the power of the inner space strangulation is very powerful, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the attack will be, so when you enter, you must use your aura to protect your body." In addition, it is absolutely impossible for two people to enter at the same time, and after one person enters, the second person must wait for a while until the door of the secret realm is stable before entering. β
After explaining the necessary things, Yongyan Zhenren and the other disciples of the Luoyan Sect guarded the entrance and began to arrange for the cultivators to enter. The first person to enter the secret realm was not a disciple of the Luoyan Sect, but a disciple of the Feiyun Sect.
is a guest from afar, and the Luoyan Sect can be regarded as giving enough face to the Feiyun Sect. Next, it is the Luoyan Sect and the Yanxia Gate......
The big front door is in the fiftieth place.
The further back on, the more unstable the Gate of the Secret Realm became.
The more people who pass through the Gate, the more turbulent the Gate becomes, and the longer the time to wait for the Gate to stabilize. However, no matter how long it takes, it will be impossible for the Gate of the Secret Realm to regain the stability of the ice it had when no one had passed through it before.
After Zhou Yuansheng entered, Lu Ye waited for a quarter of an hour before the gate of the secret realm stabilized.
Yongyan Zhenren, who had been guarding outside the gate of the secret realm, glanced at Lu Ye and said with a slight smile, "Virtuous nephew, I am Yuanfeng's master. β
Lu Ye bowed.
Yong Yan said with a smile, "The old man wishes the virtuous nephew something to gain." β
Lu Ye thanked him, and then he exuded his aura, protected his body, and quickly rushed towards the light and shadow in front of him.
Lu Ye's cultivation was too low, and he didn't even trigger the spatial strangulation power of the Secret Realm Gate, but a miserable white flashed in front of his eyes, and he broke in.
......
In the middle of the ancient mountain forest.
Lu Ye stood under a towering ancient tree with a dull expression.
Just now, the moment he passed through the gate of the secret realm, the bleak whiteness in front of him made Lu Ye's heart tremble suddenly.
The miserable white scene seems to have been seen somewhere.
After being stunned for a moment, Lu Ye came back to his senses and vigilantly observed the surrounding environment.
The ancient mountain forest like the Falling Smoky Mountain is full of towering trees and chaotic weeds, but there are no birds, flying insects and songs.
Moreover, the aura here is very abundant, and if you practice here, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Lu Ye casually picked the leaves of a dwarf tree beside him, checked it carefully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I don't know what treasures exist in this secret realm, and even these ordinary leaves have a trace of aura. Of course, no matter what treasures are in it, Lu Ye is not very interested.
The cultivators who entered the secret realm, except for Lu Ye himself, were all above the condensation stage, and many of them were even cultivators at the ninth level of condensation. Lu Ye asked himself if he was not competitive, and naturally he didn't dare to covet that treasure.
Squatting on the ground again to check on a weed, Lu Ye smiled quite satisfied, stood up, Lu Ye pinched a spiritual trick, making his cultivation look like there were nine layers of condensation veins, in order to achieve the purpose of bluffing people - this is the special feature of "Exploring Flowers". The illusion of the ninth layer of condensation veins is the limit of what Lu Ye can do now.
After that, Lu Ye took out a back basket from the storage ring and began to dig up some wild grasses and small saplings with his bare hands. Occasionally, I would see some fruit-bearing trees, and I would pick a ripe fruit and throw it into the basket.
There are not many kinds of wild grasses and wild fruits all over the mountains, but there are many of them. It didn't take long for Lu Ye to pick up a back basket, directly pour all the things in the back basket into the storage ring, and then continue to collect. Even, some dirt was picked up by Lu Ye.
Not far away, a cultivator who had already circled in the mountains and forests saw Lu Ye at a glance.
"Huh?" the cultivator was amazed. "This guy...... It seems to be some kind of big front door...... What's it called?...... "He furrowed his brows and looked at Lu Ye from afar, amazed in his heart. Before entering the secret realm, he had seen Lu Ye. At that time, most people were cultivators above the condensation vein, and only Lu Ye was a rookie at the fourth level of qi refining, so he was very impressed by Lu Ye. He ...... Isn't there only four layers of Qi refining......? Suddenly, he has condensed the ninth layer of veins?!Could it be that he has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?"
This is highly likely.
Some guys with dark psychology like to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers the most.
Since he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger's hidden strength, why did he suddenly not do that? Now he has shown his real strength?
Other than that......
What is this guy doing? What is this guy digging up all that dirt and weeds?
In a moment of surprise, he saw Lu Ye's face look happy again, and then squatted down cautiously.
Could it be that some treasure has been discovered?!
The cultivator was shocked, and his fingers moved, wanting to sacrifice the flying sword to seize the treasure. After a moment's hesitation, he walked over. There was still some distance away, so he coughed dryly and said, "This brother, fortunately." β
Lu Ye was not surprised, but continued to look down at something without raising his head, and said, "Hello." β
The cultivator secretly paid: "It seems that he has noticed me a long time ago, but fortunately he didn't make a rash move." But he smiled on his face and asked, "Did Brother Tai find any treasures?"
"Sort of. Lu Ye said, stood up, looked around, walked to a tree, plucked two large leaves from the tree, and pulled a thin vine plant.
At this time, the cultivator had already stepped forward and looked towards the place where Lu Ye was squatting just now.
I saw a black thing on the ground, this thing looked very weird, the size of a palm, like a small snake entrenched. The upper head is pointed, and the lower is wide. The cultivator just wanted to reach out and pick it up to check, but suddenly heard Lu Ye shouting, "Don't move." β
The cultivator frowned, withdrew his hand, and looked at the thing again, not sure what this thing was, and hesitated in his heart to fight with a master whose cultivation was comparable to his own for this thing, whether it was worth it, but he asked, "Brother Tai, what is this?"
Lu Ye walked over with two leaves, squatted next to the thing, and said, "It should be the feces of a spirit beast." β
"Oh, it turned out to be ...... Ah?!" The cultivator was taken aback, and when he looked at the black thing again, his face immediately darkened.
Just now, I was thinking about what kind of good thing this was, and I thought it was a natural treasure. Looking at it now, isn't it just a piece of? The big disciple of Qingtanmen, who is dignified, almost fought with the people for a piece of. Speaking of which, don't be laughed at and lose your big teeth? For a while, the cultivator's face turned red.
The cultivator watched Lu Ye carefully wrap the lump with those two leaves, and then tied it with thin vines like a rice dumpling.
The cultivator suddenly felt that he was not stupid.
The secret realm is mysterious, maybe this piece of really could be a good thing!
This guy at the big front door must know it, otherwise, why would he cherish a piece of so much?!
Speaking of which, the Ling Jue Venerable Master of the Great Front Gate is rumored to be an alchemy grandmaster-level figure. Alchemy masters, the understanding of heaven and earth treasures is the most profound. This guy is a master of the big front door, and he is also well-informed. Could it be this piece of, what kind of good thing is it?!
The more I think about it, the more reasonable it becomes!
"Huh......" Lu Ye carefully put the piece of into the storage ring, and then looked at the cultivator in front of him. This cultivator looks like he is only in his twenties, and his ordinary appearance has a sense of calmness. Smiling, Lu Ye said, "Fortunately, Lu Ye at the front door of Xiada." β
The cultivator was slightly stunned, looked at Lu Ye with a scrutinizing expression, and said, "Qingtan Gate Hongxiang." β
"Brother Hong, it's a pleasure. β
Hongxiang coughed dryly and said, "Hehe, Brother Lu, dare to ask, what about it...... Heh, what's the use of that thing?"
As early as when Hongxiang appeared, Lu Ye noticed it. Hongxiang didn't come closer, and Lu Ye didn't make a sound. Now Hongxiang took the initiative to come over, and he didn't know if he thought he had found a good treasure.
If you answer his question vaguely, I am afraid that it will make him suspicious and think that he has obtained something good. When the time comes, he kills people and takes, and he will die unjustly. So, to be honest, it's probably a better choice.
Lu Ye didn't hide anything, and said directly, "I don't know the specifics, but this thing, looking at the years, should have existed for at least two thousand years." The feces, which have not been weathered for more than 2,000 years, naturally have their own peculiarities. Moreover, not only is it not weathered, but it has not been eaten by insects and ants, which shows that this thing is extraordinary. While speaking, Lu Ye lifted the basket on his back and continued to walk forward, and after walking a short distance, he found another piece of feces, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. As just now, he picked the leaves and vines, and carefully dragged up the lump of dung with his hands separated by leaves, and then continued to Hongxiang, "Brother Hong, look. β
Hongxiang saw Lu Ye holding the feces and lifting it over, and quickly leaned back subconsciously.
Lu Ye didn't care, and said directly, "In this dung, there is a faint aura, and this aura is very peculiar, that is, it has the genus of spirit beasts and the characteristics of spiritual plants. Not...... I can't say it, maybe it can be used to refine a good elixir. Speaking of this, Lu Ye thought for a while, handed the feces towards Hongxiang again, and said, "I already have one, this one, let's give it to Brother Hong." β
Hongxiang's face changed several times, and he hesitated whether to take it or not.
This piece of......
Is it really a good thing?
Or did this Lu Ye find out that he was peeking at him a long time ago, so he deliberately teased himself?
Possibly!
If it was really a good thing, would he give it to himself so easily?
But if it wasn't a good thing, he just put away a lump. I didn't know him before, and he didn't seem to need to pick up a piece of just to mess with himself......
Hongxiang wasn't sure, and then looked at the feces, he really couldn't see any aura from it, hesitated, but shook his head, and said, "Forget it, since Brother Lu found out, I don't want to take away the beauty of people." β
When Lu Ye heard him say this, he was no longer humble, and directly tied it with vines and stuffed it into the storage ring. "It's okay, I think there should be this thing elsewhere, if Brother Hong encounters it, don't grab it directly with your hands. The trace of aura on this thing is extremely weak, and if it is touched by a cultivator like us with its own spiritual power, I am afraid that its aura will be destroyed. β
"Uh...... Thank you Brother Lu for reminding me. Hongxiang sneered, arched his hand, and said, "Brother Lu is at your own convenience, I'll go and take a look elsewhere." β
"Brother Hong walks slowly, don't send it. β
Hongxiang looked around, found a random direction, and walked straight forward.
I don't know if it was affected by Lu Ye's words, he subconsciously lowered his head, wondering if he would encounter another piece of. Although he felt that Lu Ye's words were really a bit nonsense, thinking about Lu Ye's serious appearance when he said this, he was a little uncertain.
Isn't it just a piece of that hasn't been weathered and hasn't been eaten by insects and ants? It's not a very special piece of! Golden-eyed beast's can do it, so what's the fuss? If it's not weathered and eaten by insects and ants, it's not necessarily a good thing. For example, the of the golden-eyed beast has no other use than using spiritual power to catalyze the fertilizer of the spiritual field.
Although Hongxiang thought so in his heart, he still unconsciously looked at the ground carefully. When I found a pile of hidden in the weeds, I was still stunned.
Subconsciously looked back at Lu Ye.
More than ten zhang away, Lu Ye seemed to have found another piece of, happily picked up the leaves, picked up the, and then happily put it away, and then continued to walk forward. Every now and then, I would pluck two leaves and crouch down to shovel......
Lu Ye walked farther and farther, and when he walked for a while, he would squat down and shovel. Until Lu Ye's figure disappeared, Hongxiang couldn't help but think, "It seems that this guy has picked up a lot......"
Looking down at the black stuff under his feet, Hongxiang finally strode away.
If someone sees that your dignified Qingtanmen senior brother has picked up a piece of, don't be laughed to death!
Just walked a dozen or so steps, but stopped.
Cough!
Whatever!
After all, he is a disciple of the Venerable Master, and his eyesight should be much better than his own! What if it is really a good thing? If he misses it like this, won't he regret his bowels? Anyway, the storage ring is big enough, and a piece of won't take up much space. What's more, no one saw it either......
Hongxiang learned from Lu Ye's appearance, endured the nausea, wrapped a "zongzi", and put it in the storage ring.
He was somewhat surprised to find that the looked hard, but it was soft to the touch. Outer rigidity and inner softness, or outer softness and inner rigidity, are the characteristics of many natural treasures - well, I hope it is really a good thing.
Walking not far away, he found another lump, Hongxiang pondered, one lump is to pick up, two lumps are also picked up, since it has been picked up, then simply pick up more.
So, he picked up the lump on the ground again......
In fact, Hongxiang is extremely conflicted in his heart.
I'm here to hunt for treasure in the secret realm, not to pick up dung!
But I also think that if this thing is really good......
Should be a good thing!
That Lu Ye is the disciple of the Venerable Master Ling, and he is not an idiot.
Yes, definitely good stuff!
Unconsciously, Hongxiang actually picked up more than a dozen lumps, and then looked for them, but they were gone.
In the end, it is a cultivator in the condensation period, Hongxiang still has some common sense. He speculated that this neighborhood might just be the latrine of the ancient spirit beast, which is why there was so much feces. Spirit animals are different from ordinary beasts, they have spirituality and tend to choose a place as their own place of excretion.
After a little more rotation around the neighborhood, Hongxiang finally found a piece of feces again.
I was happy, and I hurriedly wrapped it in leaves, and was about to tie it with vines, but I suddenly noticed the murderous aura!
Hongxiang was stunned, and his heart suddenly tightened.
The guy who can get close to himself quietly......
Raising his head suddenly, Hongxiang suddenly snorted coldly.
Sure enough, it's that guy!
There are few in the Red Sword Gate.
This guy has an adventure, and the exercises he practices are very magical, and he can hide his breath. Because of this strange technique, Liao Wuji, a guy with no character, likes sneak attacks the most.
A sword struck towards Hongxiang fiercely.
The two of them cultivated equally, and Hongxiang was attacked by a sneak attack, so he naturally suffered a little.
He had to throw away the piece of, dodge the sword that Liao Wuji hit, and directly sacrificed the flying sword and fought with Liao Wuji.
However, it is a pity that the sword technique of the Red Sword Gate is known for its domineering, and Liao Wuji is the first to sneak attack, Hongxiang dodged the three swords, and after all, he failed to dodge the fourth sword.
The sword slammed into Hongxiang's chest, Hongxiang snorted, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with blood.
In the end, it is the senior brother of Qingtan Gate, Hongxiang is extremely calm and calm. He knows each other's strengths well. Even in normal times, he is not Liao Wuji's opponent, he has suffered a loss at the moment, and he has no chance of winning if he continues to fight, so he simply and decisively took advantage of the offensive of this sword, flew back, and disappeared into the ancient mountains and forests in a blink of an eye.
Of course, Liao Wushu was not interested in chasing Hongxiang.
He was more interested in what Hongxiang carefully picked up as a treasure.
He had been secretly observing Hongxiang for some time, and he was sure that the black thing that Hongxiang picked up again and again must be a treasure! Although he didn't look closely, Hongxiang was not an idiot, not a baby, what did he pick it up?
It's just that what Liao Wushao didn't expect was that the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind.
In the short time when he forced Hongxiang back, a figure suddenly killed.
There were three sneering sounds, and three swords came in a ladder-like manner, forcing Liao Wuji to fly away far away. When he landed and saw the person in front of him, Liao Wuji's face changed. "Hey, it's you!"
The person who came didn't pay attention to Liao Wushu at all, quickly grabbed the piece of that was thrown on the ground by Hongxiang, and wanted to smile at Liao Wuji's smugness, but the smile that had just emerged suddenly stiffened, and then looked at the things that slowly flowed down his fingers, the person who came opened his mouth, and almost vomited out of disgust. "Fuck you! You two are sick, and you can fight for a piece of shit?!"
......
Fate is sometimes weird.
When Hongxiang, who was injured, ran away, he ran into Lu Ye, who was digging weeds.
Lu Ye couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Hongxiang with blood on the corner of his mouth. "Brother Hong?"
Hongxiang was stunned for a moment, and noticed that Lu Ye, who had not seen it before because he was blocked by a big tree, couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Why are so many people practicing this kind of cultivation method that can hide their aura?!
Because of his injury, Hongxiang has been avoiding being hit by others, and he is worried about being robbed by others. But he still didn't notice Lu Ye in the end, and he actually bumped into it himself.
Hongxiang looked at Lu Ye cautiously, smiled, and said, "I was attacked by someone." β
"Uh...... Be careful. Lu Ye said, "It doesn't matter, right?"
"Hmm. Hongxiang was now desperate for a place to heal his wounds, and he was not interested in talking nonsense to Lu Ye, so he was about to leave, but he stopped again and asked, "Brother Lu, is that thing really a good thing?" β
Lu Ye was stunned for a moment, and sneered, "Luminous sand is bat, and white lilac is sparrow." Strictly speaking, wine is also a kind of microbial......"
Hongxiang looked at Lu Ye with some surprise, and was stunned for a while. He was a little shocked. He found that what Lu Ye said was really right. Some things, although they may not seem clean, are excellent things. This common sense, even the rural villagers understand. But as a cultivator, he didn't realize it for a while.
Hongxiang nodded and said, "A blind eye, you can't see the world." Brother Lu, I was taught. After speaking, he hugged his fists and left quickly.
Lu Ye watched Hongxiang leave, and then continued to hum a small tune, dug out a weed, and then put the back basket that had been filled into the storage ring.
Almost.
Almost every useful weed has already been collected.
Lu Ye looked around, searched for the path, and walked forward.
When they had not gone far, they saw a house.
The house was clearly in dilapidation.
Not to mention being surrounded by wild grass, there was also a large tree that grew directly from the house and broke through the roof.
"It seems that this place was once inhabited! After thinking for a while, Lu Ye glanced at a big tree next to him, flew up directly, and climbed along the trunk to the top of the tree.
As far as the eye can see, the ruins of a large area of buildings, wrapped in dense forests, look extremely abrupt.
Although it was far away, Lu Ye already had the cultivation of the sixth layer of qi refining, and he could still see it clearly.
That ruined land looked less like natural destruction and more like it was man-made. The old buildings were so badly damaged that there was hardly a complete building to be found. Moreover, on top of that large area of ruins, there was an extremely strong and rich murderous aura!
Not a good land!
Lu Ye was in amazement, when he suddenly heard a voice from above the ruins.
Roar!!ββ
The sound was so loud that Lu Ye almost didn't faint.
As the sound sounded, a fishy smell swept over with a heat wave.
The stout towering ancient trees were swayed by the impact of the heat wave. The dense mountains and forests, looking condescendingly, look like rippling blue waves.
