Heavy clouds obscured the sky, and the rain fell one after another, converging in the pit in front of the house along the waterway, gradually filling up and dispersing in all directions.

The girl squatted in front of the house, singing softly, with a look of joy on her face.

Suddenly, she stood up and ran into the rain, cheering in the rain.

Looking at the cheerful girl in the rain, a soft smile appeared on the old man's face, "The rain is very important to us, it can be said to be a gift from God, and I hope that Xiaoyou will not be surprised." ”

Yun Mu bowed his head slightly, and looked through the girl in the rain, as if he had seen himself in the past.

Gradually, the rain stopped, and a beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky, and the girl looked at the rainbow blankly, with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, girl. ”

Yun Mu stood up and bowed to the girl.

The girl turned her head when she heard the sound, stunned for a moment, and looked at Yun Mu who didn't know how to react.

"No, it's just easy. The girl waved her hand, looked at Yun Mu carefully, and then shook her head and smiled.

"Let's go back first!" the old man shouted to the girl.

"Then I'll go first, Grandpa the village chief. ”

Looking at the girl's departing figure, Yun Mu looked up at the sun in the sky and sighed secretly.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed within the Quartet.

During these three months, Yun Mu lived in the old man's house, meditating and cultivating, except for the girl Feng, who came to visit Yun Mu from time to time, and no other villagers came.

After this period of cultivation, the injuries in Yun Mu's body have basically healed, his spiritual power is incomparably abundant, and his cultivation has faintly shown signs of breakthrough.

At the same time, Yun Mu also found that the intensity of the aura here was amazingly high, more than several times higher than that of the Wind Spirit Sect. The people living here, although they don't know spells, but their physical bodies are extremely strong, and Yun Mu speculates that some spells may not hurt these people in the slightest.

Not only that, Yun Mu also learned from the old man's mouth that the people here know how to control the beast, and extract their souls and integrate them into their own bodies, which is called spirit control.

However, this practice is extremely dangerous, and ordinary villagers do not dare to try it lightly.

"Yun Mu, are you there?"

Suddenly, Feng's voice came from outside the house, Yun Mu heard the sound, walked quickly to the door, opened the door, but saw Feng standing at the door with a wooden gun in his hand.

"Do you want me to go hunting today?"

"Hunting?" Yun Mu smiled bitterly, thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.

Feng saw Yun Mu nodding, a happy smile appeared on his face, and he waved behind him, and saw a saber-toothed tiger running over.

The two of them rode on the saber-toothed tiger and ran in the direction of the entrance of the village, and this scene fell into the eyes of some people in the village, and bursts of laughter erupted.

At the entrance of the village, three middle-aged men looked at the saber-toothed tiger running in the distance and the two people on their backs, their faces changed, and they smiled bitterly when they looked at each other.

"Looks like your kid doesn't have much of a chance. One of the middle-aged men said to a man beside him.

"Don't talk about my family, your family is different. ”

“......”

"Uncle Feng, Uncle Bo, Uncle Yan. Feng looked at the three men in front of him and said with a smile.

"Let's go. ”

Along the way, three men, one in front and two in the back, sandwiched Yun Mu and Feng in the middle.

At the same time, holding a wooden spear, his expression was solemn, and he looked vigilantly at the situation around him, the attack of the beasts on the embankment.

Yun Mu rode on the back of the tiger, leaning out his divine sense and sweeping around, and at the same time observed a special fluctuation on these wooden spears.

"Originally, the scope of the divine consciousness of ten zhang was only five zhang here, presumably there was suppression of the divine soul here, so I don't know if the spell would be affected. Yun Mu thought to himself in his heart, and his face was solemn.

After walking for about half an hour, the man in front signaled to stop, turned over and got off the tiger, and groped his way forward.

Yun Mu and Feng also followed the three of them and walked forward softly.

The first thing that caught Yun Mu's eyes was a tree, a towering ancient tree dozens of feet high, the body of the tree was huge, and the branches were as vigorous and powerful as a candle dragon, growing meandering towards the surroundings.

The leaves were dense, each one the size of a human face, Yun Mu looked carefully, and found that there were small cyan insects on the leaves, eating the leaves, and a faint cyan halo was emitting from the outside of the body.

On the top of the canopy, there was a blue-scaled python, huge in size, staring into the distance with eyes like jewels, the snake core in its mouth, and an invisible coercion enveloped the surroundings. If you look closely, you will find that the giant python has two protruding parts on its abdomen, as if it has claws about to be born.

Underneath the trees, there is a huge lake, the water is clear and sparkling, in which small red fish swim back and forth, and some wild animals drink and rest by the lake.

"Uncle Feng, I don't hunt today, I feel that something is wrong today. Feng suddenly stepped forward and whispered in the man's ear, while pointing his finger at the Qinglin python, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"It's really a little wrong, how did this giant python open its eyes today, it is usually closed, and I remember the last time I saw it open, it was decades ago. The man groaned for a moment, his eyes flickering, glanced at the python, and waved his hand to return to the village.

Everyone slowly retreated, but when they saw Yun Mu standing there dumbfounded, they couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong?"

At this moment, Yun Mu's eyes were fixed on a withered yellow grass under the tree.

"Rotten Spirit Grass!" Yun Mu muttered to himself.

Rotting Spirit Grass, the companion herb of spirit insects, if this thing exists, then there must be Spirit Cordyceps growing around!

Yun Mu's eyes turned and looked under the tree, but he looked back and forth several times, but he didn't see any spirit cordyceps.

"Could it be that I saw it wrong?" Yun Mu muttered in his heart, rubbing his eyes and looking again.

"That's right, it's the rotten spirit grass, exactly the same as the one recorded on the jade slip given by Hu Lao, how could there be no spirit cordyceps, could it be that someone picked it first?" Yun Mu whispered softly, but quickly shook his head in denial, "If it is picked by someone, then this rotten spirit grass will not be spared, its value is comparable to that of spirit cordyceps, and it will not give up." ”

Just when Yun Mu was puzzled, small red fish jumped out of the water one after another, splashing pieces of water, and some of them happened to be sprinkled on the rotten spirit grass.

Suddenly, a white spiritual light rose faintly from the root of the rotten spirit grass, and finally in the sky above the rotten spirit grass, it transformed into the appearance of a white rice worm, which was the spirit cordyceps!

Yun Mu's heart was shocked, and he looked at the rotten spirit grass, and the people around him were also attracted by this strange scene, and they were speechless in surprise.

After a while, all the water droplets on the rotting spirit grass dissipated, and the spirit cordyceps grass gradually dissipated and returned to the ground.

"What is this?" Feng stretched out his hand and pointed at the fading white light, an incredible expression on his face.

"I've lived for so long, I've seen all kinds of beasts, but I've never seen such a scene, and today is an eye-opener. One man's eyes widened in amazement.

Along the way, Yun Mu frowned and was silent, that spirit cordyceps must be in his hands, so that he can break through the foundation here!

It's just that the Qinglin giant python is too dangerous, judging from the coercion, it is no less than a Jiedan monk, and it is even more likely to turn into a python, and it is definitely not something that Yun Mu can fight against.

"Hey, do you think the village is good?" Suddenly, the girl turned around, looked at Yun Mu and asked softly, a hint of blush crept up.

"Okay. Yun Mu was stunned for a moment, his brows still locked.

"Would you like to stay there with me?" whispered the girl, plucking up her courage.

At this moment, Yun Mu shuddered, came back to his senses and looked at the girl, only to see the girl with a red face and lowered her head.

The three men around them glanced at each other, driving the saber-toothed tiger below them to speed up.

Yun Mu was silent, looking at the girl in front of him, his mind was also chaotic, the girl's thoughts on him, he also vaguely understood it in the past three months, but he didn't know how to face it.

Yun Mu took a deep breath, and was about to speak, when suddenly a huge roar sounded on his right side, and countless earth, stones, and trees shattered together, rolling towards the two of them.

At the same time, a figure suddenly rushed out from the right side of the two, only to see his eyes sweep, stretching out his right hand and grabbing the phoenix in front of Yun Mu.

In an instant, a cold light flashed in Yun Mu's eyes, he snorted coldly, raised his right hand, and Shan Juejue burst out, blasting towards the outstretched right hand.

Click!

Under the punch, the figure's right hand and its right arm were all broken, and before it could let out a scream, Yun Mu's figure flashed, turned into a streamer, grabbed the figure, and smashed it to the right.

A moment later, a beast's roar rang out, accompanied by a desperate scream, through the woods.
