After saying goodbye to Jingyi, Zhang Fan rushed to the interior of the secret territory. He had been free and casual in front of Jing Yi before, but now he felt heavy. He originally didn't want to add any more love debts, but who knew that a good thing of heroes saving beauty was staged halfway. Now that the wood is in the boat, can he treat the previous events as if nothing had happened, and ignore the woman who had an inexplicable fate with him?

Zhang Fan rushed to the inner part of the secret territory, while thinking, unconsciously, came to a place where the peaks are towering, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and the smoke is shrouded. He listened to the terrifying beast roars echoing in the peaks and valleys one after another, let out a slight sigh, looked at the peaks and mountains in front of him that were covered by spiritual mist, and said to himself: "Yes, this is the secret inner layer. The Xuan Soul Pool was in the Ten Thousand Peaks below the sea of clouds. As he spoke, he straightened his clothes, restrained his breath, picked up the black sword, fell to the ground, opened the way with his divine sense, and walked forward quickly.

The Xuanming Spirit Pool is the core place of the Xuanming Secret Realm. The strange peaks and strange mountains here are scattered and orderly, forming a natural spirit gathering array, gathering ninety percent of the spiritual energy in the entire secret realm here. I don't know how many first-, second-, and third-grade spirit beasts survive and reproduce here. Many ascetics of the Beiming School retreated here to practice penance and impact a higher realm.

There must be treasures in the place where the aura gathers, and the Xuanjing Spirit Pool is naturally no exception. Whenever the secret realm is opened, the aura increases inexplicably, and the low-level spirit beasts can't stand the impact of massive spiritual energy, so they escape from the inner layer and form a beast tide outside. At the same time, due to the sudden increase in aura, a large amount of aura gathers at the bottom of the spiritual pool, forming the treasure in the water - Xuanming true water.

Xuanming True Water contains a huge amount of water aura, which has the ability to wash the body of a cultivator. Improving the qualifications of cultivators not only allows the Qi cultivation period cultivators to quickly enter the foundation building period, but also allows the foundation building period cultivators to cultivate to a higher level. The monks of the foundation building period of the Beiming Sect open every time the secret realm opens. will go to the Xuanming Spirit Pool to search for the Xuanming True Water and improve their cultivation.

Genius treasures are extremely rare, and they can only be obtained by fate. The place where the Xuanjing Spirit Pool is located has a complex terrain, and the second-grade spirit beasts are haunted. The monks of the foundation building period came here, mostly for penance or hunting spirit animals. Only those monks who are nearing the end of their lifespan will come specifically to find the Xuanming True Water.

Zhang Fan walked along the deep canyon. While guarding against the raid of spirit beasts, check the surrounding situation to see if you can find the elixir. Unconsciously, I came to the depths of Wanren Peak.

"Bang!bang!bang......"

There was a crashing sound from ahead. Zhang Fan looked up and saw a woman in black fighting with a second-grade black bear in the distance. The woman was silent, and the thin sword in her hand turned into sword flowers. Kill the black bear one after another. The black bear was beaten to the point that the wolf was unbearable. But the skin is rough and the flesh is thick, and the injury is not serious, and he roars and slaps again and again, biting at the woman.

Zhang Fan felt interesting, and jumped towards the low mountain in front of him on the left, intending to hide to the side and observe carefully. Who knew that the woman had already discovered him and shouted: "Xuanhuang Daoyou." Come and help Xiaomei kill this stupid bear. He was a little annoyed, and immediately realized that the woman was the one called the 'goddess'. She was hunting the Xuanyin Snake King in the Xuanyin Cave with her a day ago. At this time, he actually came to the secret realm to hunt second-grade spirit beasts. Zhang Fan was helpless, and wanted to ask her about the situation that day and solve the doubts in his heart, so he said, "Okay, Daoist friend, wait a minute." ”

After Zhang Fan finished speaking, he went against the wind and came to the goddess in a moment. The goddess said, "Daoyou, quickly attack its abdomen." Zhang Fan didn't talk nonsense, as soon as the black sword in his hand came out, he killed the black bear. The black sword slashed at the black bear with a "bang", but it did not break the bear's skin. Seeing that the two of them were besieging him, the black bear roared angrily, glanced at Zhang Fan with contempt, and actually gave up the goddess, howling and biting Zhang Fan. Zhang Fan was shocked, and hurriedly injected true qi into the silk treasure armor, and at the same time quickly dodged. However, the black bear was too fast, and with a "bang", it bit Zhang Fan. Zhang Fan was protected by treasure armor and was not bitten, but he was knocked and flew ten zhang away.

Seeing that he hadn't killed Zhang Fan, the black bear roared angrily and wanted to pounce on Zhang Fan. How could the goddess let it go, she screamed, and slashed a sword on the bear's belly, breaking a bright red hole in the bear's belly. The black bear howled in pain, stood up, and turned to the goddess again. Zhang Fan was angry in his heart, how could he let go of such a good opportunity, he jumped up from the ground all of a sudden, shot at the black bear like lightning, and the black sword broke through the black bear's blood-stained wound with a "poof" and burrowed into the bear's belly.

The black bear suddenly howled in pain, failed to hurt the goddess, and jumped up again, wanting to bite Zhang Fan angrily. However, Zhang Fan always grabbed the black sword, and when the black bear turned around, he also turned to the side with the bear's body. The black bear struggled and howled bitterly, but could not escape the fate of death, and after several struggles, he died due to the loss of qi and blood. Zhang Fan didn't let the black sword suck the black bear's qi and blood, and as soon as the black bear died, he pulled out the black sword and left the black bear.

Zhang Fan looked at the goddess who was standing on the side with a shocked face, and gasped: "Fellow Daoist, quickly clean up the black bear." Let's hurry away. The goddess nodded, and gathered up the bear. Zhang Fan silently absorbed the black bear's qi and blood on the side to replenish the consumed true qi.

After a while, the goddess finished dealing with the black bear and said, "Xuanhuang Daoyou, let's go." Otherwise, when other spirit beasts attack, we will be in danger. When Zhang Fan heard this, he immediately collected his work and stood up. The goddess said, "Fellow Daoist, come with me." Zhang Fan nodded, and followed the goddess.

In a short time, the two of them flew for miles to a dangerous peak. The goddess took out a jade plaque and pressed it in the air, and a whirlpool appeared on the cliff in front of her. Zhang Fan entered with the goddess.

In a moment, the two came to a quiet and elegant cave. The goddess turned to look at Zhang Fan and said, "Xuanhuang Daoyou, you are resting in the mansion for a while." The little sister recovered, and then came out. Zhang Fan thanked him: "Thank you." Immediately, the goddess left, and Zhang Fan found a futon and cultivated cross-legged.

After a short time, Zhang Fan absorbed the black bear's qi and blood to replenish his true qi. The goddess happened to return to the mansion, and when she saw Zhang Fan's appearance, she apologized: "I made Xuanhuang Daoyou wait a lot." Zhang Fan smiled: "Daoist friends are polite." ”

The goddess came to the jade table, her consciousness moved, she put out a table of delicacies, poured wine and tea, and said with a smile: "Xuanhuang Daoyou, the little sister is not good at craftsmanship, so prepare a little thin wine, let's use it together?" Zhang Fan thanked him: "Daoyou is too modest." Xuanhuang can taste the delicacies of Taoist friends, and Sansheng is lucky. So saying, he came up and sat down to eat. The goddess smiled lightly: "As long as the Taoist friends don't dislike it." Then the two of them laughed and ate their food.

After the meal. The two sat and chatted. Zhang Fan had many doubts in his heart before, but when he saw that the goddess was at leisure, he said, "Fellow Daoist." Since we parted the day before yesterday, we can see each other again, it's really fateful. The goddess smiled, "Yes." The little sister didn't expect that Brother Dao not only had good strength and sharp magic weapons, but also had a firm heart and was not afraid of difficulties. There is no one on the right side of the debut brother among Beiming's peers. ”

Zhang Fan smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just a coincidence." However, the cultivation of Taoist friends is profound. Why do you want to participate in the hunt of the Xuanyin Snake King?" the goddess said: "Isn't it the same for Brother Dao? That Soul Gathering Flower is rare for a thousand years, and it is a wonderful product for cultivating and restoring divine consciousness, even the Jindan monks will be greedy. There are many spirit snakes in the Xuanming Cave. Extremely difficult. If it weren't for Brother Dao's help that day, we would all be in danger. Today, Brother Dao helped Xiaomei kill the Xuanming Black Bear again. Xiaomei really doesn't know how to thank her. Zhang Fan smiled: "It's just a trivial matter, Taoist friends don't have to take it to heart." ”

The goddess smiled when she heard this. Slightly groaned. asked: "Although the realm of the little sister Guan Dao brother is high, but the cultivation seems to be regressive, but you plan to find the genius earth treasure - Xuanming True Water Restoration Fù Cultivation?" Zhang Fan secretly rejoiced when he heard this: "Hehe, Daoist friends are as wise as torches, and they are here for Xuanming True Water." Do you have any news of the Xuanming True Water?" the goddess shook her head and sighed, "It turns out that Brother Dao is also here to search for the Xuanming True Water. It's a pity that the little sister has never seen the Xuanming True Water, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed in vain for ten years in the early days of foundation building. ”

Zhang Fan said: "I'm just asking casually, hehe." The goddess glanced at Zhang Fan and saw a slightly regretful expression on his face. sighed slightly and said, "Brother Dao's mood can also be understood. It's a pity that the little sister doesn't have Xuanming real water. However, ten years ago, I heard that someone had seen it in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave at the bottom of the Xuanjing Spirit Pool. Zhang Fan was overjoyed when he heard this: "What Daoyou said is true?" The goddess said: "Little sister just heard about it." Brother Dao still don't go. The Ten Thousand Beasts Cave is at the bottom of the spirit pool, and the divine consciousness is strictly suppressed, and ordinary monks can only exert fifty percent of their strength, but it is a pity that the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave hides second-grade or even third-grade spirit beasts, and the monks in the early stage of foundation building will only give their lives in vain. ”

Zhang Fan didn't think so, knowing that his methods were extraordinary, as long as he was not killed by the spirit beast at once, he would be able to take the treasure among the ten thousand beasts and retreat. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stand up and said with a smile: "The so-called wealth is in danger. I now need a treasure containing a huge amount of spiritual energy to regain my cultivation, and since there is Xuanming True Water in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave, I naturally want to go for it. Fellow Daoists, if we don't go and have a look together, if we encounter the Xuanming True Water, we can also save ten years of penance. The goddess shook her head and said, "Fellow Daoist, you must not be reckless. You are so young, you have such cultivation, why do you need to take the risk of treasure hunting, isn't it good to cultivate with peace of mind?" Zhang Fan smiled: "It's okay. Do you want to go with you?" the goddess shook her head again and said, "Thank you Brother Dao for your kindness." After ten years of precipitation, the bottleneck is no longer there, and after a few days, she will leave the secret realm to cultivate outside, and she will be able to advance in less than a year. ”

Zhang Fan said: "What Daoyou said is reasonable. But I want to try my luck in the next place, thank you for your hospitality. The goddess exclaimed, "Brother Dao doesn't think about it anymore?" Zhang Fan shook his head and walked out. The goddess sighed and opened the protective formation.

The two came outside. Zhang Fan hugged his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist, farewell!" The goddess sighed: "Although Brother Dao has good combat power, you still have to be careful. Zhang Fan nodded, and then left with the wind.

The goddess shook her head, looked at Zhang Fan's distant figure, and said to herself: "What a blessed boy, but it's a pity that his head is not bright." If he had been smarter, he would have understood what I meant. It's a pity, maybe it's fate. As he spoke, he shook his head again, went back to the cave, and went to cultivate.

Zhang Fan was in a good mood at this time, although he originally knew that the Xuanming Spirit Pool had a genius treasure Xuanming True Water, but the Xuanming Spirit Pool under the Ten Thousand Peaks was extremely wide, and he didn't know where the Xuanming True Water would appear, and it was impossible to search the entire Spirit Pool in just ten days, and now he knew that there might be Xuanming True Water in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave, so he couldn't let it go. He walked all the way to the wind, and after a while, he came to a spiritual lake full of spiritual energy.

Naling Lake is surrounded by peaks, ancient trees are towering to the sky, and it is really a place where spiritual treasures are gathered. The water splashed on the surface of the lake, the spirit beasts churned, and occasionally a few howls sounded, which added a bit of savagery.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan felt the breath of the spirit beasts that occasionally flew out of the water, and learned that they were all spirit beasts above the second grade, and there might be a lot of them, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little heavy, and the heartstrings that were originally a little loose gradually tightened.

The spirit of the black sword sensed the master's intention and said, "Master, you don't have to worry. is just a second-grade spirit animal, and for Lao Hei, it is just a point for delivering food. You just have to go down to the lake. Search carefully, and leave the rest to Lao Hei to deal with. Zhang Fan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Haha, when has the master been scared? Stupid beast, what am I afraid of it doing?" said that, he opened a True Qi defensive shield around his body, held the black sword, and connected with the treasure armor and spiritual flame, and jumped into the lake. The spirit beast in the lake heard the sound and howled a few times. When nothing came of it, they went their own way.

At this time, Zhang Fan dived down. Feeling the pressure from the lake around him getting bigger and bigger, the spiritual power that entered the true qi shield gradually increased. He looked at the spirit beasts scurrying around not far away, and said to himself: "No, the young master spends his spiritual power on the true qi cover." What should I do if I encounter a large number of spirit beasts? If the master doesn't even have the strength to escape. How can it be possible to get out alive?" As he spoke, he took a few top-grade Gathering Spirit Pills and put them in his mouth, closed the air hood, restrained his breath, and his divine sense checked the movements of the surrounding spirit beasts, and his mind contacted the ice flame to prepare for the unexpected, and quickly sneaked down.

Zhang Fan sneaked all the way, seemingly benefiting from the protection of the black sword in his hand, without alarming ordinary spirit beasts. It didn't take long to reach the bottom of the lake. There are all kinds of first-grade and second-grade spirit beasts here, all of which are of different sizes. The caves of different depths are densely arranged, and it is really worthy of being a cave of ten thousand beasts.

Seeing this, Zhang Fan carefully used his true qi to resist the pressure of the lake, and his mind contacted the spiritual flame to prepare for battle, regardless of the turtle and strange fish crawling around at the bottom of the lake, the spirit snake and the shrimp, the divine sense probed the movement in the surrounding five-zhang cave, and at the same time moved forward quickly.

He walked all the way, running through the shrimp bushes, breaking through the turtle holes, checking the crab holes, looking at the fish holes, looking around the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave inside and out three or four times, with the help of the Spirit Flame, he killed many ordinary first- and second-grade spirit beasts by sneak attacks, but he never saw the shadow of the Xuanming True Water.

Zhang Fan said secretly: "Could it be that the Xuanming True Water is not in the cave? It can't be?" The Black Sword Spirit said: "Master, isn't there a weird deep cave in the middle of the Spirit Lake? Hearing this, Zhang Fan's face showed a panicked look, and he shook his head with palpitations: "That ghost place is too evil, and the master felt that his true qi was lost out of thin air when he passed by there, and he seemed to feel an unusually depressing atmosphere. There may be a three-grade spirit beast there. If the young master enters there, I am afraid that before he can react, he will die due to the dissipation of the aura or be swallowed by the three-grade spirit beast. The Spirit of the Black Sword said, "What the master said also makes sense. Although Lao Hei used to be beautiful, but now without the help of his master, he can only deal with second-grade spirit beasts. However, according to what Lao Hei heard, when the genius earth treasure is formed, there will be a large amount of spiritual energy gathered, and ordinary spirit beasts dare not approach them, but after they are formed, the spiritual energy will be restored, and there will be a large number of spirit beasts to fight for it, and at that time, ordinary monks will only lose their lives if they enter. There may be Xuanming True Water formed in that black hole, and it is still possible for the owner to obtain Xuanming True Water. ”

Zhang Fan said secretly: "What Lao Hei said is reasonable." My Five Elements Spirit Jade and the Human Emperor's Sword can both hold living creatures. As long as I am careful, I can still get the Xuanming True Water, and if the situation is critical, I can also hide in the spirit jade space in advance. When he thought of this, his heart suddenly became relieved, and he said: "If you don't take it, you will suffer from it." I, Zhang Fan, can't back down, Lao Hei, you help me cover up my breath, I'll break through. The spirit of the black sword agreed, and then Zhang Fan gritted his teeth and walked towards the center of the bottom of the lake.

After a while, Zhang Fan came to a large vertical hole with a radius of several zhang. There was not a single spirit beast within a hundred zhang of the surrounding area, but outside of that hundred zhang, there were giant sharks, giant turtles and giant pythons cruising, roaring at Zhang Fan, swallowing a column of water. Zhang Fan had been accidentally sucked in his true qi, and his breath was revealed, which alarmed the second-grade upper-rank spirit beasts around him, and he was chased and killed by them for a long time. These spirit beasts seemed to have experience and were waiting for something, but they didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool. At this time, Zhang Fan felt that the true qi in his dantian was passing little by little, and the exposed aura alarmed the surrounding spirit beasts. However, before the spirit beast's attack could get close, it turned into aura and was sucked into the deep cave.

Zhang Fan looked at the seeping spirit beasts outside and the sea cave full of unknown soul devouring inside, after the spiritual power continued to drain, and the divine consciousness that penetrated into it was fruitless, and after many struggles, he gritted his teeth and jumped into the cave under the pressure of the lake.

As soon as Zhang Fan entered the cave, he felt that the speed of the true qi was passing faster and faster, his body was rapidly declining, and the pressure on his body increased sharply. He couldn't help but regret it a little, and said to himself: "The young master won't kill himself again, right?" As he thought, the spiritual power around him passed quickly. He felt that the colorful spiritual clouds in the dantian were getting smaller little by little, and the five elements spiritual jade seemed to feel that the master's spiritual energy was passing too fast, and the speed of rotation gradually increased, and wisps of five element spiritual energy were continuously released into the dantian to replenish the spiritual energy consumption of the dantian.

Zhang Fan felt that the true qi continued to flow out, and the meridians around his body seemed to become tough little by little, although the spiritual energy of the dantian was consumed too quickly, but with the support of the spiritual jade aura, the spiritual energy in the dantian was not sucked dry. He felt that the pressure around him was getting bigger and bigger, and it seemed that it had dropped nearly 10,000 miles, but the scope that his divine sense could explore was getting smaller and smaller, and his heart was gradually becoming anxious, and he couldn't help but regret a little, feeling that his original approach was too reckless, but unfortunately now it was not good to give up halfway, and his heart was in turmoil for a while.

As his body declined, the pressure on Zhang Fan's body increased little by little, and the speed of his true qi slowed down a little bit, and his heart became a little panicked. He kept comforting himself: "Hold on for a while, hold on for a while." If something is unexpected, the master will hide in the spirit jade space. ”

Just as Zhang Fan was hesitating and struggling, an idea seemed to pass into his mind. Zhang Fan said secretly: "But it's golden scales!But how is this possible?" While thinking about it, he only heard a crisp sound of "bang", and suddenly felt that the pressure on his body was completely lost, and his body fell uncontrollably, and a touch of gold suddenly enlarged in his eyes. He was horrified in his heart, feeling that his body seemed to be disobedient, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah......hhhh

However, Zhang Fan hadn't finished screaming, and suddenly felt that his eyes were full of gold stars, and he passed out. He couldn't react a little, he originally thought that he had seen the golden scales, but when he saw a golden dragon, his heart sank suddenly, and he secretly hated the black sword for not reporting it immediately, and thought before he fell unconscious: "Master is finished!" (to be continued......
