Chapter 196 A strange place

Chapter 196 A strange place

Three days later, Ye Chunyang stepped on a low-grade flying sword, left the medicinal field, and staggered down the mountain.

In fact, Ye Chunyang did not practice the immortal sword, but now everyone in Huaxue Sect thought he was in the Qi Refining stage. If he sacrificed the golden mace, he would scare these outer disciples. So early this morning, he picked a flying sword from the magic weapon library left by the Fairy Biluo, suppressed his cultivation to the eighth level of Qi Refining, and prepared to return to Chunyang Cave to practice alchemy in seclusion.

However, this flying sword is only a medium-level magic weapon. It is wobbly and slow when flying, which is really ridiculous.

After all, Ye Chunyang has not used a medium-level magic weapon for many years. Now it is not so easy to use it suddenly!

Fortunately, with his powerful spiritual power, even if this flying sword is too rubbish, it flew away from the mountain gate in a short while.

Chunyang Cave was his secret place. To avoid being discovered, Ye Chunyang did not go there immediately, but walked around Tianchong Mountain for several circles. It was not until dusk that he prepared to enter from another entrance in the deep mountains.

However, when he flew to a certain place on his sword, his figure suddenly stopped and he saw three figures standing below, seemingly fighting.

One of them looked anxious and thin. Who else could it be but Zhang Sanqi?

But at this moment, his lips were purple, as if he had been poisoned, and he lay on the ground unconscious.

On the other two sides, there was also a man and a woman lying. The two looked somewhat similar, like a pair of siblings, and their situation was similar to Zhang Sanqi.

Ye Chunyang frowned slightly. Didn't Zhang Sanqi go to catch monsters? How did he end up in such a situation?

He looked forward and saw a white mist filling the mountains and forests.

In the middle of the three people, a furry "little white mouse" was digging with its claws, chewing a spiritual grass in its mouth, and its dark green eyes looked at the three people who were half dead on the ground with mockery.

Ye Chunyang recognized at a glance that the "little white mouse" was holding the five-finger grass that he had lent to Zhang Sanqi.

From this, it seems that this "little white mouse" is the spiritual tail marten that Zhang Sanqi and others want to capture, but I don't know why these people ended up like this.

When he was about to go down to check, his face suddenly changed.

He looked at the "little white mouse", and then put his spiritual consciousness into the space jade gourd, and after a while, he showed a gloomy look.

After a moment of hesitation, he pointed his two fingers in the air, and the flying sword stabbed towards the spiritual tail marten.

Although the spirit-tailed marten was in its infancy, its eyes were extremely human. It was eating the five-finger grass with relish at the moment. Suddenly, it was startled by the murderous aura and screamed. It even opened its mouth and sprayed a ball of green mist, and then fled to the fog sea in front of it like lightning.

When Ye Chunyang's flying sword landed, it only blasted a sword hole on the ground.

Ye Chunyang was stunned.

The speed of the spirit-tailed marten was too fast. With his cultivation level, he couldn't even see how the beast escaped.

He fell to the ground with a gloomy face, looked at the place where the beast escaped, and his face was uncertain.

Seeing Zhang Sanqi and others fainted here, it was obvious that the fog sea in front of them was the Tianyan fog that many cultivators were afraid to enter.

According to legend, this place was a psychedelic restriction left by a person with profound cultivation in ancient times. After years of sedimentation, it became more and more dangerous, and ordinary people dared not enter without permission.

This beast actually entered it easily. It might not be so easy to catch it.

After a moment of hesitation, he took out a few pills and fed them to Zhang Sanqi and others, and then turned into a yellow light and flew into the mist.

The poisonous fog released by the marten just now was extremely strange, but it only targeted Zhang Sanqi and other people with low cultivation. How could it do anything to Ye Chunyang? Moreover, his spiritual awareness was several times higher than that of the same level, and he would not lose his way in this mist.

After chasing for a while, the figure of the marten appeared not far away.

Ye Chunyang did not hesitate, and the flying sword pointed again and hit the beast.

But the result surprised him extremely.

The beast seemed to be sensitive, and it sped up in vain, breaking through the ground and quickly avoiding it. After another flash, it actually used the technique of escaping the ground to drill into the ground.

Ye Chunyang was a little unbelievable. This beast was only in its infancy, and it could avoid his spell. It was incredible. Thinking of the strange fog released by the beast just now, he felt more and more weird.

In fact, he was not chasing the spirit-tailed marten for Zhang Sanqi and the others, but when the beast released the strange fog to stun the three people, there seemed to be some unusual movements in the space jade gourd.

After checking, it turned out to be the result of the ghost king who was sucked into the jade gourd in Guangling Cave that year.

Since the beast was sealed, its consciousness has been refined, but Ye Chunyang has not figured out how to place the beast, so he has been storing it in the jade gourd. If it had not been for the unusual movement today, I am afraid he would have forgotten it long ago.

This time, the ghost king was alarmed by the spirit-tailed marten. Ye Chunyang was puzzled and wanted to catch up to find out.

Although there were many strange things about the spirit-tailed marten, it was just a juvenile demon after all. At this moment, Ye Chunyang was not in a hurry and slowly fell behind to see if there were any other unusual things about the beast.

After thinking for a while, he also used the earth escape technique and followed the trail of the beast.

However, just as he followed the spirit-tailed marten into the underground, he found that the place suddenly became muddy and the temperature was a bit cold, as if he had stepped into a swamp.

Ye Chunyang frowned, wondering what was strange about this place, and immediately released his spiritual sense to sense the surroundings.

After all, this place was a restriction left by the ancients, and one would get lost in it if one was not careful.

However, the underground was obviously different from the fog above. When the fog was tracking, Ye Chunyang still felt that his spiritual power was smooth.

Now after escaping into the underground, it is faintly restrained, as if someone has set up another restriction here and created a space using Taoism.

And seeing how familiar the spirit-tailed marten is with the road, it seems that it has long been accustomed to this place.

The further he pursued into the depths of the ground, the more surprised Ye Chunyang became.

Looking at the moving figure of the spirit-tailed marten, his eyes flickered.

I don’t know what is contained in this underground place. If it is really a man-made creation, it is possible to open up such a world under the ancient restrictions. I am afraid that the caster of the spell is very humane. If we continue to follow it in depth, I am afraid that the consequences will be unpredictable.

"This little demon actually has the ability to escape from the earth. Could it be that it has been hiding at the bottom of the mist all this time?"

Ye Chunyang became more and more curious about this spirit-tailed marten. Judging from the various behaviors of this beast, it was definitely not an ordinary juvenile monster.

Frowning slightly, he used magic to protect his body, opened a path at the bottom of the mist, and chased forward.

He had decided that if he couldn't figure out the strangeness of this place even if he went a hundred feet deeper, he would stop following it to avoid getting into unknown dangers.

With his current qualifications of earth-attributed spiritual roots, if he were to cast spells in ordinary underground, he should receive a spiritual power bonus. However, he is now being suppressed, which proves that this place is extraordinary.

From all indications, the underground is far more dangerous than the fog above.

Although he was curious about the ghost king's strange behavior towards the spirit-tailed marten, Ye Chunyang was not stupid enough to take risks.

At this time, the spirit-tailed marten in front noticed that the visitor was following him step by step, panic flashed in his eyes, and he fled deeper into the ground.

But seeing that its route was clear and it looked familiar, it was obvious that it was fleeing somewhere.

Ye Chunyang naturally couldn't let it happen as he wished, but he didn't want to alarm the other party either, so he always kept a certain distance from him. He believed that he might gain something by following this.

But as he went deeper into the ground, the aura of the ghost king in the jade gourd was also fluctuating frequently, as if something was approaching, making it feel very strange.

Ye Chunyang became more and more curious about this.

At this time, the spirit-tailed marten's steps suddenly stopped. In front of him was a thick mud wall, but it was obviously different from the ordinary underground. It looked like a closed cave door, and it also gave off a strange aura, which was shockingly different from the ordinary underground wall. Just now, the spirit-tailed marten stunned Zhang Sanqi and others like a mist, and after approaching this place, the fluctuations of the ghost king in the jade gourd became even more compact.

Ye Chunyang looked in front of him, released his spiritual consciousness, and frowned more and more.

Could it be that the front is a cave left by an ancient ancestor?

From this point of view, it is not impossible. After all, he has experienced such a scene before.

Seeing Ye Chunyang chasing him here, the spirit-tailed marten finally showed fear in its eyes, knowing that this person was far more difficult to deal with than the ones above. After making a few strange screams, it suddenly showed a ruthless look and turned around. Plunge into the black mud wall.

Seeing this, Ye Chunyang's expression changed.

This mud wall is full of ghosts, and I don’t know what kind of foreign object it is. With the demonic power of the spirit-tailed marten, this collision is probably enough to make it return to the west. Could it be that it knows that it is doomed and wants to die to prove its ambition?

However, just when Ye Chunyang couldn't figure out the beast's intention, the situation changed.

I saw the spirit-tailed marten suddenly passing behind the mud wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ye Chunyang's pupils shrank, and he quickly stepped forward to investigate, and found that the mud wall was extremely thick. What was even weirder was that no matter how he attacked with magic, it was like a mud cow sinking into the sea, being completely absorbed.

This abnormality made Ye Chunyang deeply surprised.

He had already felt that his spiritual power was being controlled before, and now this mud wall door has the effect of absorbing spiritual power, which shows that there is something fishy about this place.

He hesitated for a moment. He didn't know that there was some unpredictable danger hidden behind the mud wall. If he broke in rashly, he didn't know what abnormality would happen.

But since he came here, he would inevitably feel unwilling to go back.

After thinking for a while, he took out the green silk bandage. This object was illusory but extremely sharp. With the use of his spiritual power, a passage was immediately opened in the mud wall.

Ye Chunyang's body flashed and he immediately escaped into it.

But just as he passed through the mud wall, a chill suddenly spread behind him, and the newly opened passage healed quickly, as if there was a powerful force controlling this place.

Ye Chunyang felt something was wrong, so he immediately took out the ancient golden mace and waited for it, then slowly stepped forward.

After taking a few steps forward, the darkness in front of me was no longer as dark as before, but instead there was a faint green light.

At this time, he saw that this place looked like a wormhole dug into the ground. The space was not large, only a few hundred feet wide, and it was surrounded by layers of black mud and stone.

These mud stones look soft, but like the previous mud wall, they have the effect of absorbing spell attacks.

"I didn't expect that after staying in this ghost place for hundreds of years, I would still see people coming here. I think Taoist friends are also destined people."

Just when Ye Chunyang was on alert, a voice from ahead shocked him.

Looking up, he saw a stone platform at the end of the green light. Sitting on it was a young man in white, holding the spirit-tailed marten in his arms and smiling lightly at him.

Ye Chunyang's pupils shrank, and the chill rushed from the soles of his feet to his forehead.

With his out-of-body consciousness cultivation, he couldn't feel this person's breath at all before he came in. It was obvious that the other person's cultivation was far above him.

It is unusual for such a person to suddenly appear in this strange place.

Ye Chunyang suddenly became more vigilant.

If this person is harmful to you, you must try to escape no matter what.

After changing his mind, Ye Chunyang was unwilling to leave before he figured out why the Ghost King resonated with this place.

So he calmed down and said, "I am reckless. I didn't know that this Tianyan mist is a place for seniors to practice in seclusion. If I have offended you, please forgive me. But I don't know your name?"

Although this person is weird, if the other party has impure motives, Ye Chunyang is confident that he can escape from his grasp, but he will have to spend several years in seclusion afterwards.

"My name?" The young man in white smiled strangely after hearing this and said, "It's been too long. I can't remember it."

He looked at Ye Chunyang again and said, "Daoyou has clearly reached the middle stage of foundation building, but he is restrained and shows his Qi training to others. Moreover, there is no evil spirit on his body, but he is dressed in a demonic way. Why is that?"

Ye Chunyang's heart trembled. This person saw through his details at a glance.

"Don't be nervous, fellow Daoist. I have no ill intentions. It's just that you are the only one who has come here for a long time. I can't help but say a few more words out of curiosity."

As if to show the sincerity of his words, the young man in white did not make any move. He just sat there quietly, smiling at Ye Chunyang.

Ye Chunyang's eyes flickered, thinking about how many secrets he still had that this person didn't know. At the moment, he changed his mind and showed a calm look, saying: "To be honest with you, senior, I am indeed not a demon. It was just by chance that they took me to the mountain gate, so I dressed like this."

Until the situation was clear, Ye Chunyang could not bear it for the time being.
