Chapter 257: Lu Yunqi
Plain text online reading site domain name To the northeast of the city, there is a large area of low hills. -- These hills are covered with trees endemic to the Netherworld, and the most common is a tall plant with many serrated edges and an orange color. Because they rarely grow straight and their leaves resemble maple leaves, they are called wild maple trees. And this hilly area is named Wild Maple Forest. Compared with the barren mountain in the south of the city, this is a forbidden place for meditation. In the wild maple forest, there are many high-level underworld beasts, and there are still many dangerous places. It is rumored that thousands of years ago, the Wild Maple Forest was not what it is now, but a holy place for meditation cultivation, and there used to be several large forces stationed in the surrounding areas, and later, for some reason, these big forces have migrated, and the Wild Maple Forest gradually disappeared into memory. On the outermost side of the wild maple forest, there are several small bare hills. They stand out against the backdrop of the dense trees around them. At the foot of one of the small hills, a series of mine 'holes' were dug out, and the ore veins that extended directly to the ground, and the 'yin' stones flowed into the market of the city from here. This is a 'yin' stone mining area under the control of the city of vain. Around the small hill, there are groups of meditation cultivators who walk by from time to time, and most of their cultivation is in the middle and late stages of the 'Yin', responsible for patrolling the entire 'Yin' stone mining area, in order to prevent theft by foreign meditation cultivators and destruction by hostile forces. Especially in the west of the city, several 'yin' stone mining areas were successively attacked by the Green Glowing City, and the purpose of this patrol was mainly the latter. Although the Wild Maple Forest was far away from the Green Glowing City, no one could guarantee that the other party would not send a secret cultivator to attack. Lu Yunqi, a member of Tianyan Mansion who accepted the 'Yin' late stage of meditation. Because he couldn't get used to seeing Wang Hai's affairs, he complained a few words in private, and was spread by ghosts with hearts. When Wang Hai found out, he framed him for disrespecting Yan and punished him for three months for mining the 'Yin' stone mine. On this day, Lu Yunqi completed the mining volume of the day early. Instead of taking a break, he greeted several guards and walked alone to another small hill in the neighborhood. These guards belong to Tianyan Mansion, and they are usually 'friendly' with Lu Yunqi, and they do not restrict his freedom. At the bottom of another hill, there are also some mine 'holes'. However, they were used for exploration and were dug very shallowly, so they were abandoned because they had no mining value. Of course, the reason why this place was chosen shows that there are also some 'yin' stone mines under the hills, but they are not worth mining. In their spare time, the guards and meditators of the city of vain will come here to "treasure treasures", although it is impossible to dig up a large number of 'yin' stones, but for them, it can be regarded as an additional income. As long as it does not affect the mining of the 'yin' stone mine on the other side, the person in charge of meditation generally does not interfere. At the beginning, there was news of the discovery of small ore veins from time to time, but with the passage of time and a large number of meditation cultivators, the probability of discovering the 'Yin' stone became smaller and smaller. At first, Lu Yunqi just wanted to try his luck inside. However, when he found a natural "hole" and "hole" in the depths of a mine, he changed his mind. Although he didn't get much of a gain, he only found some strange stones inside, and besides, he always had a strange feeling of boredom when facing them. This time, Lu Yunqi wanted to search carefully again. When he was about to reach the end of the mine, he saw the mark on the wall of the hole, so he carefully removed a pile of gravel, and then, after beating the wall of the hole a few times, a rectangular stone slab turned out. Behind the stone slab is a half-foot-wide 'hole'. For meditation, this is already very broad. Lu Yunqi didn't hesitate and quickly got into it. The space behind the entrance of the 'hole' is not too large, judging from the uneven wall of the 'hole', it is a natural formation here, not an acquired excavation. He glanced at it quickly, and searched carefully. Half an hour later, Lu Yunqi's expression showed a trace of frustration. Just when he thought that he would find nothing on this trip, he suddenly looked at the wall of a 'hole', which was obviously much smoother than the rest of the place, and did not seem to be a natural formation. Suspicious, he walked over and patted it gently. The wall of the 'hole', like a weathered rock, instantly turned into a cloud of fly ash, 'exposed' a shallow hill 'hole' behind it. Judging from what I had just touched, the stone wall was obviously a formation. Perhaps due to the fact that it has existed for too long, the power of the formation is gone, leaving only an empty shell. Seeing this, Lu Yunqi's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. However, his dream was soon shattered by reality, and in this small mountain 'cave', there were only four or five round or square stone slabs, which seemed to be some kind of artifact of unknown purpose, and there were some lines engraved on the surface, judging from the residual breath, they belonged to the same kind of substance as the stones he had obtained before. Like the formations on the stone walls, these stone slabs turn into fly ash with a slight touch. Luckily, there is a slightly dilapidated stone slab that has been well preserved. On the surface of this broken stone slab, the mysterious lines are still clearly recognizable, and the faint brilliance flows from time to time, and there is still a groove in the central part of the slate, which seems to be used to inlay some kind of item. Lu Yunqi thought for a moment and took out a strange stone that he had discovered last time. He gestured, and it was just the right size, so he didn't hesitate to insert it in. The strange stone flickered and then turned to dust. At the same time, the surface of the broken stone slab emitted a ray of light, accompanied by a terrifying aura that flickered and disappeared. Seeing this, Lu Yunqi couldn't help but be surprised and suspicious, and carefully confirmed the surface textures, only to find that there was a huge difference between them and the 'yin' patterns, and they didn't seem to belong to the meditation artifacts. As for its specific purpose, he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't come up with the slightest clue. Seeing that nothing was found in the 'cave', he took the broken stone slab and left disappointed. During this period, there were unexpected changes around the 'Yin' stone mine. In the dense forest near the side of the black maple forest, five black shadows silently came to the edge. These five black shadows are five dark beasts. However, unlike the Immortal Beasts, their eyes were blood-red, and their expressions were blank, as if they were not sane. Obviously, they are not dark beasts, but demonized spirits. The appearance of the five fierce spirits did not attract any attention from the meditation cultivators. Even, even a condensed meditation cultivator sitting here didn't notice it, and he was still cultivating in a 'cave' mansion. Looking at the meditation in front of them, the five fierce spirits all 'licked' their mouths and lips, as if they had seen the best delicacy in the world, and immediately rushed over desperately. Their first target was the patrol guards. Before the five fierce souls were demonized, one was a second-order mid-stage underworld beast, and the fourth was a second-order early underworld beast. In front of them, a few 'yin' stage meditations, without any resistance power, became food. After devouring the guards, the five fierce spirits continued to rush into the 'Yin' stone mining area. Suddenly, a sonar 'yin' monstral scream resounded through the surrounding mountains and forests. After hearing this, the Condensation Meditation Cultivator thought it was a sneak attack from Green Glowing City, and immediately came out of the cultivation 'hole' and 'hole', but when he saw the five fierce spirits, his 'color' changed greatly, and he turned around and fled. The strongest fierce spirit, when he found him, immediately chased after him. When Lu Yunqi came out of the 'hole' of the abandoned mine, he happened to see the condensed meditation being swallowed by the murderous spirit. When he understood what was happening, he hurriedly 'excited' a 'yin' talisman that could speed up, and fled to the side away from the 'yin' stone mining area. In the process, the guards and miners who fled in all directions were chased by the murderous spirits, and that situation was clearly a one-sided massacre. Seeing that the meditation behind him had become food for the murderous souls, Lu Yunqi's consciousness had long forgotten about fear, and he had only one thought, that is, to escape. However, the gap in cultivation made his actions pale and weak. A murderous spirit found Lu Yunqi and immediately chased after him. Lu Yunqi was unwilling to be restrained, and hurriedly threw out a few attacking 'sex' and 'yin' talismans, but for the murderous spirit, these attacks were still insignificant and difficult to stop. Seeing that the murderous soul was getting closer and closer, Lu Yunqi could already feel the breath that remained on it when the other meditation cultivators died, and after sacrificing a low-grade spiritual weapon, he took out the broken stone slab, and then embedded a relatively well-preserved strange stone into it. Immediately, a terrifying aura emanated outward. Looking at the broken stone slab, the fierce spirit showed fear on his face, and involuntarily stopped the pursuit. After all, it is only instinctive, and it will actively retreat from powerful and dangerous things. Under the cover of the stone slab, Lu Yunqi quickly fled away. On the way, out of an abundance of caution, he used several odd stones in a row. Although these stones, like the one just now, can make that terrifying aura last longer, they also make the fierce spirit dare not chase after it. He didn't dare to stay outside the wild maple forest, and went straight to the city of vain. Under the slaughter of the five fierce spirits, I am afraid that very few meditation cultivators will be able to escape, and if he can go back and report the news as soon as possible, he may be able to avoid the punishment of mining. Deng An had no idea what happened to the 'Yin' stone mine. After successfully absorbing the sacrificial soul liquid, he refined Dongyan and Kuri into corpse golems. In the following time, he began to sort out a few medium-grade artifacts. The Tomb Dust Stone Ring that was taken away by Dongyan has been retrieved, and due to some damage, it must be re-cultivated with a ghost fire. The black 'colored' flying sword obtained from Mo Kun was severely corroded in the process of digging the stone heart taro and was difficult to completely repair. The material of the black 'colored' stone is relatively special, and the erosion of yang energy is relatively weak, so it can still be used. In this case, Deng An urgently needs a weapon to attack the 'sex' mid-grade underworld. He had obtained a secret recipe for a medium-grade Soul Weapon Bone Shattering Sword, with his current cultivation, combined with the ghost death fire, he was barely qualified to refine it, but the materials needed were relatively precious, and it was difficult to gather them in a short period of time. In desperation, Deng An had no choice but to give up and concentrate on consolidating his cultivation. Due to the fact that the 'yin' qi environment of the Flowing Cold Realm was far inferior to that of the Netherworld, and the situation at that time did not allow him to cultivate for a long time, his cultivation was not completely stable, and he could further 'refine' his cultivation. When Deng An basically completed the expected goal, Yan Buli suddenly sent a little 'flower' to summon him. --63541+dsuaahhh+25507679--& ... ...
