Chapter 73: Return to the surface
After Jiang Xiayu got the Xuanbi grass, the inner demon contract with Bai Yitong was basically completed. In addition to the joy of harvest, she also has a little loss. When the purpose of coming to this secret place was achieved, Jiang Xiayu planned to return immediately. Her father's injuries were in urgent need of treatment, and she couldn't afford to delay.
"I have achieved the purpose of my trip, and I plan to return immediately so that I can treat my father's injuries. I don't know ...... you."
Jiang Xiayu looked at Bai Yitong, and the look of expectation in her eyes flashed.
"I'm going to another place, and I have no plans to return yet. ”
Bai Yitong naturally wouldn't leave just yet, at that time, Lin Chengdao secretly invited, according to him, in a secret place on the second floor of this cave, there was a mysterious treasure inside, and even Bai Yitong was very moved. At this time, Lin Chengdao's primordial spirit was in Zhihai, and he planned to force Lin Chengdao to tell this secret place first, and then secretly went to get the treasure, and then returned to the ground.
"I plan to follow Big Brother Bai and collect some more things in this secret cave. Sister Xiayu, why don't you come with us?"
Lily of the valley smiled brightly, but she didn't plan to leave,
Bai Yitong heard that Lily of the Valley was going to follow him, and his brows couldn't help frowning. But Lily of the Valley is a little naïve, and he can't refuse in person. Moreover, he also has some inexplicable affinity for Lily of the Valley. Anyway, it's a big deal to share some benefits with her when the time comes.
Bai Yitong set foot in the world of cultivating immortals, and he really saw the sinister nature of people's hearts. It's rare to meet a monk like Lily of the Valley, who has no scheming, and he actually treats her as a little sister in his heart. It's just that the heart of guarding against others is indispensable, and he and Lily of the Valley have only known each other for a short time, so naturally they will not fully reveal themselves.
"My father is in serious condition and I want to return as soon as possible. Otherwise, the injury may worsen. White...... Brother Bai, what I promised you, can you wait for me to hand over the Xuanbi grass to my father and then do it for you?"
Jiang Xiayu lowered her head and said.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry anyway. However, when you return, you should be careful of the Purple Demon Mantis at the entrance to the second floor!"
Bai Yitong smiled and reminded kindly.
"Ahh
Jiang Xiayu was reminded by Bai Yi's pupils, and suddenly remembered the terrifying purple wind knife.
"It's better to be like this, Sister Xiayu will be patient for a little longer, and after Big Brother Bai finds what you are looking for, I will take you back to the ground from the fire cave. There was no danger on that road. ”
Lily of the valley observed her words and knew that Jiang Xiayu and the others must have encountered some danger.
"In this way, you follow us all the way, and by the way, help me find the Ice Spirit Stone. By the time we got back to the surface, it was almost time. ”
Bai Yitong couldn't bear Jiang Xiayu to return alone, if he encountered the Purple Demon Mantis, the consequences would be very terrible.
"Yes!"
Jiang Xiayu nodded, feeling a little more steady.
......
When they came out of the hidden fire cave, Bai Yitong's three bodies were red from the scorching fire. Rao is cultivation of the three of them is not low, and they can't completely get rid of the flames. After returning to the ground, the trio finally parted ways. Jiang Xiayu was in a hurry to save her father, so she only left a transmission note for Bai Yitong and Lily of the Valley, and left. Soon after Jiang Xiayu left, Lily of the Valley also said goodbye and left. Before leaving, she made an appointment with Bai Yitong, and met Junzhou Xiancheng three months later.
Walking slowly on the road, Bai Yitong counted the harvest of this trip in his heart. All in all, this trip to the snowfield was quite fruitful. First of all, he activated the ice spirit stone needed by the Ice and Fire Xuanji Array, and with Jiang Xiayu's help, he found a miniature ice spirit stone vein. After some mining, he obtained more than 1,000 low-grade ice spirit stones and hundreds of medium-grade ice spirit stones. In addition to the Ice Spirit Stone, he also got an Immortal Vine Orchid, and there were also a lot of demon beast materials and spirit grass, worth about five thousand spirit stones. Although these gains are a lot, they are still inferior to the strange treasures obtained in the secret cave in the end.
Speaking of the process of retrieving the treasure in the secret cave, Bai Yitong really pinched a cold sweat. In the final analysis, he still didn't have enough experience, and he was cheated by Lin Chengdao again. Three days ago, Bai Yitong forced Lin Chengdao to tell the location of the strange treasure, but was deceived by Lin Chengdao to a dangerous place. If he hadn't seen the opportunity early, I was afraid that he would end up with Lin Chengdao. In the end, it was Lily of the Valley that taught him to use the soul search technique, and he found the exact location from Lin Chengdao's memory. In the end, the three of them came to a stalactite cave without danger, and in the center of the cave was a pool of spiritual lotion a few inches in size. Looking at the concentration of this spiritual milk, it is at least thousands of years old. This kind of spiritual milk is condensed by the spiritual spring absorbing the spiritual energy of stone milk. In thousands of years, only two or three bottles have been formed. Bai Yitong and the three of them each got a bottle, and Jiang Xiayu was better. After Lily of the Valley got the spiritual milk, she became cautious.
The thousand-year-old spiritual milk, in addition to quickly restoring the monk's mana, also has the effect of nourishing the primordial spirit. This kind of secret treasure is almost priceless in the immortal cultivation world. Bai Yitong was estimating the value of the spiritual milk in his heart, and suddenly noticed the breath of a monk in front of him. Judging by the breath, it should be a spiritual monk.
Bai Yitong took the hat and slowly approached the other party. In a few breaths, the two sides took a photo. When he got closer, he realized that the other party was a five-person squad, and his cultivation was between the fifth layer of the Gathering Spirit and the seventh layer of the Gathering Spirit. After making sure there was no danger, he walked towards the team of five.
"A few Taoist friends in front, I have something to inquire about!"
......
Bai Yitong spent ten spirit stones to inquire about some of the latest things that happened in the Chaos Basin from the five-person monk team. He went through all the information he got and found nothing of value. The only news that was of some use to him was about the Poison Daoist. According to three members of the five-member team, every time they entered and exited the basin of chaos, they were interrogated by a scruffily dressed monk Nayuan. And the content of each interrogation is the same, that is, whether you have met a gentle-looking young spiritual monk. Bai Yitong didn't have to think about it, he also knew that it was the poisonous Taoist who was looking for him. In addition to this news, there is also a general understanding of the five immortal gates of Junzhou.
Bai Yitong didn't expect that during the time he hid in the basin of chaos, the battle of Gao Luo escalated again. The current form is no longer a simple battle between the Ascending Cloud Gate and the Chaotic Heaven Gate. Now the war has escalated into a scuffle between multiple small immortal sects. If these little immortal sects involved in the war are all under the jurisdiction of the same big immortal gate, it is better to say something. However, the current situation has involved the five immortal sects. Three of the five major immortal sects in Junzhou have already participated in this competition for interests. Although it is said that these three immortal gates have not yet openly set foot in the war. However, in private, there is already an undercurrent.
"The Nine Dragon Mountain Lingmu Mine is only a third-order small mine, how can it attract the five great immortal sects to participate in the competition?"
In the Nine Dragon Mountain Lingmu Mine Cave on the border of Gaoluo, Bai Yitong has entered, and the best quality mineral deposits in it are only the fourth order. Such a mineral deposit will at most alarm a few small immortal sects. And the involvement of the five immortal sects is really incomprehensible.
"Forget it! These have nothing to do with me! The most important thing at the moment is that we must find a way to avoid the poisonous Taoist so that we can go to Junzhou Immortal City. ”
Bai Yitong muttered to himself, the camp of the basin of chaos was approaching.
In order to avoid being discovered by the poison Taoist, Bai Yitong stopped ten miles outside the camp. Subsequently, he exchanged some commonly used items from a fourth-layer minor monk who was passing by at a high price. As for the carrion corpse that he entrusted the camp grocery store to buy on his behalf, it had to be put on hold for the time being. This kind of large-scale financial transactions cannot be handled by others on their behalf.
The teleportation array leading to Thunder Fire Sect City was blocked by the Poison Daoist, and Bai Yitong had no choice but to find another way to leave. The mountains surrounding the Basin of Chaos may be a barrier to ordinary Spiritual Monks. But Bai Yitong has queen bee wings, and he can completely ignore these barriers. He discerned his direction and hurried towards the side of the Badwater Swamp.
According to the map, the Badwater Swamp is surrounded by a high mountain. Passing through the high mountains, you will find the direction of Sambunko. The country of Sanwen is close to the country of Luo, and the direction is also the same. Therefore, Bai Yitong decided to go directly through the Badwater Swamp and collect some carrion beasts by the way. Then after saying goodbye to his parents in Sanwenguo, he set off for Junzhou Immortal City. Of course, before leaving, he also needed to go to the vicinity of Luoshui City to meet Jia Ying.
In the following days, Bai Yitong carried out a large-scale massacre of the carrion beasts in the Evil Water Swamp. With his current strength, as long as he doesn't encounter swarms of carrion insects, there are basically no carrion beasts that can't be hunted. Gradually, it approached the range of Zexin again. According to the distance calculation, the black water pool is not far away.
"Recently, there have been signs of a breakthrough in cultivation, now that I have come here. It's better to return to the Qingying Temple to break through to the eighth layer of the Gathering Spirit. ”
Bai Yitong thought for a moment, and then decided to enter the black water pool again.
A few hours later, Bai Yitong came to the Black Water Pool again. After many days, the black water pool is still so full of gloom. The pond is ten feet around, and there is no living thing. Bai Yitong didn't know why there were no creatures, but he knew that the pool water would not directly kill living things. As for the reason, he didn't have time to think about it now.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Just when Bai Yitong was about to jump into the black pool, the sound of breaking the air suddenly came from behind him. Before Bai Yitong could react, the breath of the Sandao Nayuan monk came instantly. He was shocked, and his first reaction was that the poisonous Taoist priest was chasing him.
"Hehe, hey, I'm running to a dead end now! The painting sister still obediently obeys my senior brother and me, otherwise don't blame my senior brother for being ruthless!"
The three Nayuan monks landed on the edge of the black water pool one after another, but they didn't ignore Bai Yitong's existence at all.
Since the people who came were not looking for trouble, Bai Yitong was not in a hurry to dive for a while. Hearing the voice, he slowly turned to look behind him. As a low-level monk, he would never dare to use his divine sense to sweep away a high-level monk. This is the iron law of the immortal cultivation world, if a low-level monk rashly uses his divine sense to scan a high-level monk, he will be regarded as disrespectful by the high-level monk. Most likely, it will lead to death.

Today, except for going to the river to relax, I encountered a murder. The body was found by the dead grass by the river, burned to black carbon. For the first time, so close to a corpse. Life is really impermanent, and the world seems to be a bit chaotic recently, so you should be careful when you go out
