Chapter 178 Dugu Qiubai and the mysterious cave
"Thousand-year-old flat peach, does the emperor think that eating this flat peach can increase your life span by a thousand years?" Xiao Meng asked.
Su Yu nodded and said to everyone.
"Yes, just like this, it can increase one thousand years of life, and can make a person who has never practiced it directly become a master of the Shinto realm."
"Wow..." Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"I want to eat, I want to eat." Ah Qing had already shouted impatiently, almost drooling.
"Strictly speaking, this flat peach needs a thousand years to mature. Now that it has just been promoted, even with the help of the Seven Treasures Pagoda, it will still take nearly three years." Su Yu said with a smile.
"It's been so long." Ah Qing said in disappointment.
Everyone was not disappointed. Such a treasure was worth waiting for for thirty years, let alone three years.
"What's your expression? How old are you, are you so afraid of death?" Jiang Yuyan smiled at Ah Qing.
"This girl is just greedy." Daji said with a smile.
At this moment, Su Yu suddenly thought of something and asked.
"Is Dugu Qiubai still in Cangqiong City?"
"Dugu Qiubai? Yes, after the young master called him last time, he seemed to have something to tell you. But then you went to the Netherworld Forest and went into seclusion after you came back. He stayed in Cangqiong City waiting for you. Lu Xiaofeng said quickly. He often wanders around Cangqiong City, so he knows the situation of Dugu Qiubai.
"Well, I'll go out and take a look." Su Yu nodded after hearing this.
At the Tantai family residence, Tantai Xixi was practicing swordplay, and standing beside him was Dugu Qiufei.
"Miss Xixi, you shouldn't hesitate when you draw the sword just now. The sword follows your heart. Don't deliberately follow the sword technique. You should be flexible so that it is not easy to be cracked when facing the enemy." Dugu Qiubai said.
"Yes, senior, Xixi knows." Xixi said obediently.
After Tantai Yueming learned about Dugu Qiubai's talent in swordsmanship, he asked Dugu Qiubei to teach Xixi. Although the opponent was only at the peak of Shinto, his knowledge of swordsmanship was not weaker than his own.
"Dugu Qiubai." At this time, Su Yu's voice came from the air.
"Master Su." Dugu Qiubai and Xixi quickly saluted Su Yu in the sky.
Then Su Yu fell down.
"Dugu, I heard that you have something to do with me?" Su Yu asked.
"Yes, Mr. Su."
"What's the matter?"
Dugu Qiubai looked at Xixi.
"I'll make tea for you." Xixi left after saying that.
"Sir, it's like this. When I ascended to this world, there was a mysterious place near the place where I ascended. It was a deep and invisible cave. At that time, I was at the bottom of my cultivation and did not dare to go down. After two days, A hundred years ago, I went there again after cultivating to the Shinto realm. However, when I went a hundred meters deep into the cave, a large suction force appeared. Fortunately, I was prepared and was not sucked in. I would like to ask the young master to come with me and have a look. , what on earth is that?" Dugu Qiubai said.
"Mysterious cave? Where is it?" Su Yu became interested.
"In the Northern Territory, near the Beiming Sea." Dugu Qiubai said.
"Beiminghai? Isn't that the territory of Beiming Demon Saint?"
"Exactly, but the cave is in the desert outside the Beiming Sea, and there are no monsters." Dugu Qiubai said quickly.
Su Yu nodded upon hearing this.
"Okay, I'll go take a look with you in a few days." Su Yu said.
"Thank you, Master." Dugu Qiubai said quickly.
The Northern Territory is second only to the Central Territory in power. The reason is that in addition to the human race, there are also many powerful monster beast clans living here, among which the Beiming Demon Saint of the Beiming Sea is the most respected.
There is another desert not far from the Beiminghai. There are traces of all things here. It is so desolate that even monsters are not willing to live here. This is where Dugu Qiubai arrived after his ascension. He found a way out after a lot of hard work. The mysterious cave was discovered by him when he was looking to leave the desert.
The cave is thirty or forty meters in diameter. Looking from top to bottom, it is pitch black and bottomless.
At this time, Su Yu and others were surrounding the edge of the cave.
"Master Su, everyone, this cave is weird. There is a huge suction force when you go down to about a hundred meters. I escaped last time because of the rope wrapped around me." Dugu Qiubai faced Su Yu and others. The man said.
"Master, do you see anything?" Su Yu asked.
Master Ziyin stared solemnly into the dark cave, then shook his head.
"No, my consciousness can only detect more than a thousand meters, and then I feel chaos." Master Ziyin said.
"So deep?" Daji asked in surprise.
"Sir, will there be any danger?" Everyone asked worriedly.
Su Yu was staring at the cave, thinking about something.
"Huh?" Su Yu suddenly showed a hint of surprise on his face.
Then, under everyone's doubts, a transparent stone with a faint light was taken out from the storage ring.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
"This is the space stone. I got it accidentally before, but it suddenly reacted just now." Su Yu said, pointing to the dim light emitted by the space stone.
This space stone was exactly the one that had been taken away from the God of War Temple before. Su Yu had never had a chance to use it, so he kept it there. As a result, it had a reaction just now.
"I suspect that there is something related to space down there. It may be an unknown space, or it may be a passage." Su Yu said.
"What? Space passage." Everyone was shocked. They were no strangers to space passages. After all, Su Yu took them to the firmament realm through the space passage in the lower realm.
"Space, time and space are extremely complex laws. Young Master, what do you want to do?" Master Ziyin said.
"Well, I'll go down and take a look." Su Yu said.
"No." Daji and the other girls suddenly said in unison.
"Master Su, forget it, it's too dangerous in here." Knowing that there might be an unknown space inside, Dugu Qiubai was also worried.
Su Yu was also a little unsure at this time. Although he was very confident in his own strength, this was the power of space, the most complex law in the world, and even the most powerful might would not dare to touch it.
"Master, it's better not to take risks." Zi Yin said solemnly.
Everyone moved forward one after another. Just when Su Yu was about to give up, he seemed to sense something. Then under everyone's gaze, he took out the magic egg from Bai Yujing.
"Sir, what are you doing?" Everyone looked at the demon egg in confusion and asked.
"This guy just reacted." Su Yu said. Then he reached out and stroked the magic egg.
The demon egg suddenly emitted bursts of light, and then the space stone in Su Yu's hand was absorbed by it.
"Ah this..."
Everyone was shocked, and Su Yu's face showed joy.
After the magic egg absorbed the space stone, it expressed joy to Su Yu. Then it moved forward with a purr, came to Su Yu's feet, and touched Su Yu lightly, like a little baby. Children generally like to please.
"This guy actually reacted." Everyone was shocked. They didn't know what happened to Su Yu during her retreat. This was the first time they saw the magic egg moving.
"Okay, I'm going to go down and take a look." After Su Yu said that, he was about to take back the magic egg, but found that the other party actually resisted, and he couldn't take it back.
"What's wrong?" Su Yu asked confused.
Then a message came to Su Yu's mind.
"Danger..." What the demon egg gave Su Yu was just two simple words.
Su Yu's expression changed immediately after hearing this, and she looked solemnly at the magic egg in front of her, and then looked at the cave.
"What's wrong?" Daji asked with concern upon seeing this.
Su Yu stared at the cave for a long time, then sighed.
"The demon egg just sent me a message that it's dangerous down there."
Everyone was happy at first, and then they were confused. They were happy that Su Yu didn't have to go down there to take risks, but they were confused about how the dark guy in front of him knew that there was danger down there.
"Who are you? Why do you say it's dangerous down there? Is it because of the power of space?" Su Yu secretly asked while gently touching the magic egg.
The magic egg seemed to hear Su Yu's thoughts, and another piece of information reached Su Yu's mind.
"Wait for me..." It was still two simple words.
However, at this time, Su Yu seemed to understand something. She nodded towards the magic egg, and then waved her right hand gently. This time, the magic egg did not resist, and obediently allowed Su Yu to take back the white jade capital.
Everyone saw everything and waited for Su Yu to explain.
"Sir, did the magic egg resist you that time before?" Master Ziyin, who is not weak in insight, saw that Su Yu was rejected the first time he wanted to take back the magic egg.
"Well, it's very strange. It can resist me. I can't take it into Bai Yujing without its consent."
"This cave cannot be entered for the time being. It must be very dangerous inside." Su Yu said, but he did not mention the second message from the magic egg.
"Dugu, I'm sorry." Su Yu said to Dugu Qiubai.
"Sir, what are you talking about? It's only me who apologizes. I never thought it would be so dangerous down here, and I almost killed you." Dugu Qiubai said quickly.
"You all get out of the way." Su Yu said at this time. Everyone quickly flew into the air.
Then I saw Su Yu standing next to the cave, with her feet on the ground and her hands making magic spells. The ground around the cave suddenly shook, and soon a large cloud of dust flew up and headed towards the cave.
Everyone immediately lost their vision, but soon, a gust of wind blew by, the dust dispersed, and people were surprised to find that the originally dark cave had disappeared.
Su Yu nodded with satisfaction and jumped into the air.
"I did some tricks to hide this place. I will come back when I am confident." Su Yu said to everyone.
Everyone suddenly realized.
"Let's go." Su Yu waved his hand after saying this, and everyone returned to Bai Yujing. This place has been marked by Su Yu and can be teleported directly next time.
"Senior Dugu, what are your plans in the future?" Su Yu asked just after entering Bai Yujing.
Dugu Qiubai pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said.
"I don't know, sir. I used to be very conceited in the lower world, but after coming here for hundreds of years, I have experienced too many things. Now I just want to find a place to live in seclusion."
Su Yu was speechless for a moment. This guy really lived in seclusion.
"If you don't mind, just stay here with me. Wuming and the others all use swords. Everyone appreciates you very much. You will never reach the peak of swordsmanship by practicing alone." Su Yu said.
After hearing this, Dugu Qiubei looked at everyone. When he saw everyone looking at him with a smile and a look of concern in his eyes, Dugu Qiubei, who had long been used to being alone, suddenly felt warm in his heart.
