Chapter Seventy-Three: The Ancient City

After hearing this, Deng An was secretly surprised in his heart, but he didn't feel nervous, in the other party's voice, there was no malicious intent, he was surprised by the other party's clever concealment methods, if it wasn't for the end of the battle, the other party intended to appear, he was afraid it would be difficult for him to find out.

Deng An looked along the place where the voice came from, and saw that in the woods on the other side, a young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes slowly walked out. This ghost has a richly decorated robe on his body and holds a feather fan in his hand, and when he walks, he is not in a hurry, even if he is a ghost, he still has a sense of elegance. Presumably during his lifetime, he must have been a beautiful son.

From the first sight, Deng An felt ashamed of himself.

The cultivation of this ghost is basically the same as Deng An's, and they all belong to the early stage of condensation.

However, this did not arouse much interest in him, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the feather fan in the young man's hand that exuded a faint black aura, and with the eyes of half of his current refiners, he could naturally see that it was a genuine artifact.

"How can the technique of the micro end be compared with the Taoist friends, if it is not for the Taoist friends who take the initiative to appear, I am afraid that they will still be kept in the dark now. I don't know what you have to say?"

The young cultivator was slightly proud, and seemed to be very satisfied with Deng An's praise, and then politely hugged his fists and saluted, "In the Lower Ancient City, I don't know what to call you?"

Deng An politely replied: "Deng An!"

After hearing this, Gucheng gave another polite salute: "Deng Daoyou is polite." ”

"Gu Daoyou is polite!" Even though Deng An was used to mixing in the circle of scribes before his death, he still felt a little uncomfortable, so he said straight to the point: "Gu Daoyou, please say something directly." ”

The ancient city snorted, shook the feather fan in his hand, his face was light, and he still asked with a smile: "Have you ever heard of the Demon Soul Crystal?"

Deng An searched through his memory and got some information.

For monks, the Demon Soul Crystal is a rare item, which can not only repair soul damage, but also strengthen the soul, and if used in alchemy, it can also refine the elixir that prolongs life. But for ghosts, they don't do anything. At the same time, as far as he knew, only in the body of the soul eater beast, there was a certain chance of giving birth to a demon soul crystal.

Deng An asked suspiciously, "What are Gu Daoyou looking for that thing?"

Gu Cheng sighed helplessly, and replied without concealment: "I was going to exchange a few things with a ghost sect monk, but he asked for the Demon Soul Crystal by name. ”

Ghost Gate Monk? Deng An's heart moved slightly, the monk who can trade with the ancient city must be a monk in the foundation building period, and the nearby ghost gate that can reach the foundation building is probably only available in the town ghost gate, but the transaction involves the privacy of the other party, and the other party will definitely not tell the tray, so it is not good to inquire again, and asked: "What does this matter have to do with the following?"

The ancient city smiled slightly and said, "On a mountain peak in the Blue Fox Ridge, a mid-second-order soul eater beast was discovered, and judging from the experience of many years in Xia, there should be a demon soul crystal in its body. I thought that my strength was limited and not enough to kill him, and I was going to find a fellow friend to help, but I didn't expect to meet a fellow friend here. ”

Seeing Deng An's expression as usual, Gucheng was worried that Deng An would refuse, so he hurriedly added: "I will definitely not let Daoyou go in vain, if you hunt that soul-eating beast, no matter whether there is a demon soul crystal in its body, all the materials on its body belong to Daoyou." ”

Deng An didn't mean to participate, but Gu Gu's later words made him hesitate. Counting the silver lynx he had just killed, the three demon beasts he hunted belonged to the early stage of the second order, and although the materials on their bodies could refine the spirit weapon, they were only inferior at most, and the success rate was very low. If it is a second-order mid-stage demon beast, using the materials on its body to refine a low-grade spirit weapon, the success rate should be able to increase a bit.

Hunting second-order mid-stage demon beasts, Deng An didn't have an idea. However, in addition to the Six Spirit Fire Condensation Technique, he didn't have a very good means to deal with the second-order mid-stage demon beast, and on the way, he once encountered a giant-footed rhino, however, he couldn't resist the demon beast when he ran out of means, but instead put himself in danger, and later he was able to get rid of it with the Yin Wind Escape Technique. If he had a helper, it wouldn't be much of a danger to deal with a mid-second-order soul eater, even if he was defeated, with his escape technique and ghost fire, it would be enough to save his life.

After thinking about it for a moment, Deng An did not immediately reply. He didn't know the details of the ancient city at all, and if the other party was sent by the Futu Society, wouldn't he be unlucky. However, this concern seemed to be a bit unnecessary, and it was impossible for the Futu Society to find him so quickly.

Deng An's eyes flashed, he looked at the other party with a smile, and said, "That soul eater beast is a demon beast in the middle of the second order, so Gu Daoyou is not worried that it will lag behind?"

Hearing this, Gucheng showed an elegant smile: "I believe in Deng Daoyou's strength, as long as Daoyou doesn't think Gu will drag his feet, Gu is already thankful." ”

Deng An naturally wouldn't believe the humility of the ancient city, since the other party dared to deal with the ghost monks, his strength was absolutely extraordinary, otherwise he would have been refined into the main soul a long time ago, and the other party's concealment technique also made him quite jealous, although he didn't know how the other party did it, but it was certain that he would never use these foreign objects such as "invisible grass".

However, Deng An didn't want to miss the demon beast materials in the middle of the second order, even if the other party's means were powerful, his cultivation was only in the early stage of condensation, and he didn't pose much of a threat to him, so he nodded and said, "Okay! ”

The ancient city was overjoyed when he heard this: "Not far, just on the periphery of Qingguling." ”

Just as Deng An was discussing with the ancient city, Yin Wind Valley suddenly changed. Whether this change will be a blessing or a curse for the meditation of the Burial Immortal Mountain, no one can predict.

The bottom of the valley of the Yin Wind Valley is far from the imagination of the outside world.

There are no Yin Spirit Beads everywhere here, nor are there rare Immortal Grass Flowers, there is just an open space of forty or fifty zhang in a square garden, and there is a dense and abnormal black mist around the periphery of the clearing.

Compared to the fog in the sea of fog, it is difficult to call it "fog", they are more like a wall of fog, firmly enclosing the center of the clearing.

In the center of the clearing, a simple stone platform is arranged.

If there are still items in the valley that can arouse the coveted by the cultivators, this stone platform may be the only one among them, because it itself is a huge yin stone, but it seems to have been blessed with some kind of formation, and the surface is engraved with mysterious and unusual ancient patterns.

Suddenly, a certain line on the surface of the simple stone platform flashed a slight light, and then, as if it came to life, it began to squirm slightly, and then the second and third ...... until all the lines on the stone platform are in operation. Their speed grew faster and faster, and the stone platform was soon shrouded in a dark light.

When the speed of the ancient pattern reached a certain extreme, a pillar of black light appeared silently and shot towards a certain direction above the stone platform.

At this moment, the yin qi contained in the stone platform seemed to be exhausted by the pillar of light, and it dimmed instantly, and a trace of black silk visible to the naked eye began to drill out from the surrounding fog wall, and gradually merged into the central stone platform, restoring the yin qi in it, this process may be very long.

In a certain direction above the stone platform, after being hit by a pillar of light, a spatial distortion immediately appeared, and as the distortion became more and more severe, a circular vortex gradually formed there. When its rotational speed reached a stable level, it suddenly shook, and a pair of legs belonging to meditation slowly stretched out from it. Soon, the figure of an old man in a robe was revealed.

The aura on the old man's body is extremely strong, even if Huang Xingchu is not as good. After he came out, he seemed to be a little uncomfortable with the environment here, his eyes were closed, and after resting for a while, he slowly opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and looked around.

"I didn't expect to come back, I hope I won't disappoint the old man!"

The old man sighed, his body moved, and he came to the fog wall in an instant, and without thinking too much, he successively played one trick after another to it, and the fog wall that was impossible to cross in the eyes of the outside world meditation was like melting, and a narrow passage slowly appeared.

Seeing this, the old man smiled slightly and stepped into it.

Deng An, who was standing in front of a certain mountain peak in Qinghu Ridge, had no idea about this matter, he was listening to some mothers-in-law and mothers in the ancient city, the ancient city seemed to be extremely concerned about this soul eating beast, and after arriving here, he became extra careful, and said some things that needed attention from time to time.

According to the ancient city, when he saw the soul eating beast, it should have just had a full meal, and it would rest on the peak for a while, and it would be impossible to leave it in a short time. Soul Eaters have a very strong ability to sense souls, especially human souls that have become meditative. Therefore, they must be careful not to let it detect it in advance and escape from the mountain.

This mountain peak is the highest in all around, the terrain is also the steepest, and the trees on the peak are dense, even the demon beasts are difficult to pass, but for Deng An and the ancient city, it is not a big problem.

"Howl, howl......" Deng An and the ancient city were about to go up the mountain, when suddenly there was a howl of demon beasts from the forest above, judging from the sound, the number was definitely not a few. They were very familiar with Qinghu Ridge, and naturally they heard that it was the most common first-order demon beast in the local area.

Green Fox, the true owner of Green Fox Ridge.

Deng An and Gu Gu's faces became extremely ugly. One or two green foxes, with their cultivation, naturally will not be in their eyes. However, judging from the voice that came, there were dozens of these green foxes, and in the face of so many green foxes, even the meditation cultivation in the Dan period had to avoid their edge, let alone them. And with the existence of these green foxes, it is debatable whether that soul-eating beast is still left on the mountain. After all, the territorial concept of demon beasts is very strong, and in the same area, it is impossible for two strong demon beasts to appear, and this group of green foxes has a numerical advantage, and they will definitely not be afraid of a second-order mid-stage demon beast.

The Soul Eater Beast was not the target that Deng An had to hunt, and if it was not necessary, he naturally couldn't take any risks for it. However, he was invited by the ancient city to come, so it was not good to leave immediately, so he had to test the other party's meaning: "Ancient Daoyou, do we still want to go up?"
