Chapter 686: Disaster-Avoiding Pill
After walking around in the Dayan stilt forest for a few times, half an hour had passed unknowingly.
Wu Yan came to the Sword God Rock in the middle, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, exerted the power of Yuan Shen Hundong, and carefully sensed it.
On the four sides of the Sword God Rock, three Yuanying late-stage great monks were also sitting cross-legged here, releasing their consciousness to sense something. Wu Yan's arrival immediately attracted the attention of the three people, especially after Wu Yan exerted the power of Yuan Shen Hundong, for some reason, the three people felt that their consciousness seemed to be peeped by some strange power and stung. They were shocked and put away their consciousness and looked at Wu Yan.
Speaking of which, Wu Yan knew two of these three people, and the identity of the third one could be guessed based on his dress.
One was Shi Nian from Xumi Sect, the other was Xiao Xuelian from Blood Demon Sect. Although Wu Yan did not recognize the last one, he could guess the identity of this person from the fact that he was covered by a black cloak and could not see his true appearance at all. He must be the great elder Gui Wuye from Jiugui Sect, whose cultivation was second only to the sect master Gui Wuzang.
The three of them turned their eyes to Wu Yan at this moment, frowning and looking at him. Under the gaze of the three, Wu Yan put away the induction of Yuan Shen Hundong expressionlessly. The scene was strangely quiet. Two of them showed surprised expressions on their faces, and Gui Wuye was completely hidden in the cloak, but it was hard to see his expression.
After more than half an hour of continuous induction around him, Wu Yan was basically able to determine the specific location of the fragment of the cave. And more than half an hour of continuous use of the power of Yuan Shen Hundong consumed too much of Yuan Shenzhu and divine consciousness, which made Wu Yan quite overwhelmed.
To perform this kind of magical power, there is no need to consume mana, but the consumption of spiritual consciousness is very large. Especially when performing it with all his strength, the Yuan Shenzhu constantly rotates at high speed in his ancestral sea of consciousness, which consumes a lot of Wu Yan's spiritual consciousness. Therefore, Wu Yan was too lazy to pay attention to the others around him. He took out a soul-replenishing pill and took it, and then sat in meditation to recover. He seemed to be unaware of the different looks of the three people.
His move made the three people feel more and more suspicious.
Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian looked at each other in surprise. Shi Nian's eyes suddenly lit up with two points of starlight like the morning star, and swept slightly over Wu Yan, and then quickly turned around, as if he was afraid that Wu Yan would notice it.
Obviously, he was performing some kind of special magical power of the divine eye technique, but this kind of divine eye technique was also hidden. If you don't look closely at his eyes, you can't find out that he has spied on others.
Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian looked at each other with different expressions for a while, but they didn't notice anything unusual. After looking at each other, they stood up at the same time, left Jian Shen Rock, and walked to a distance of a thousand feet away from Wu Yan. Then they looked at each other and nodded.
Xiao Xuelian took out a dark red blood bead, and after injecting magic power, the blood bead suddenly shone brightly, forming a three-foot-sized circular blood light shield, covering the two people inside.
Then, the light on the blood light shield flickered for a moment, and suddenly disappeared, and the two people covered in it also disappeared.
Many cultivators who were startled nearby became suspicious at the same time. Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian were two of the three people with the highest cultivation in the entire Dayan Stone Bamboo Forest, and they were also the backbone of most of the cultivators who came here to spy. Their sudden unusual behavior at this time made many people feel uneasy.
Anyone can see that the two did not disappear from this place, but they must have made some amazing discoveries. They used special magic weapons to hide and cut off all inductions, and they were plotting something.
In fact, the blood bead that Xiao Xuelian took out was a very famous treasure in the Blood Demon Sect - "Blood Demon's Eye".
This treasure is said to be refined from an eyeball of the ancient blood demon. It is extremely mysterious. It not only has special peeping magical powers, but also has the strange function of avoiding any peeping.
Xiao Xuelian used this treasure to cover himself and Shi Nian in it and negotiated secretly. Such a strange scene fell into the eyes of others, and others could not help but speculate.
"Did the two discover the origin of the treasure and find a way to take it out, so they hid and conspired?"
At this moment, most people had this idea and guessed, and they looked suspiciously at the place where the two disappeared. However, although many people were extremely curious about this, no one dared to release their spiritual consciousness to spy.
With the "Blood Demon Eye" there, even if you release your spiritual sense, you can't spy on anything. Instead, you may be noticed by Xiao Xuelian, and then offend this person. If so, you will really ask for trouble.
The two middle-stage Jindan cultivators of Xuan Daoism were also suspicious and kept spying on the place where Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian disappeared. There was a hint of smugness and suspicion on their faces.
The two looked at each other, nodded in understanding, and then quietly moved towards the place where Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian disappeared. They stopped under a stone pillar a hundred feet away from where the two disappeared. They pretended to look at the stone pillar, but in fact they were concentrating on the movement of the place where Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian disappeared.
Wu Yan seemed to be unaware of what happened in the Dayan Stone Bamboo Forest. He just closed his eyes like an old monk in meditation, and meditated quietly to refine the medicinal power of the pill he had just taken.
Gui Wuye, the great elder of the Nine Ghosts Sect, also withdrew his spiritual sense at this moment. He looked at the place where Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian disappeared for a moment, and then turned to Wu Yan.
Perhaps sensing that Wu Yan was meditating and resting his mind, he did not rush to disturb him, but sat cross-legged more than ten feet away from Wu Yan, and began to meditate and rest his mind quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The other cultivators saw that the three people's behavior suddenly became so strange, and they couldn't help but feel more and more uneasy.
Let's say that after Shi Nian and Xiao Xuelian hid themselves, they communicated with their minds within the barrier formed by the "Blood Demon's Eye" and discussed.
"Brother Shi Nian, did you sense it just now?" Xiao Xuelian frowned and said.
Shi Nian nodded, his face showing an extremely solemn expression, and responded with his mind: "Of course, I just sensed that my mind, which was spying on the entrance to the netherworld under the Sword God Rock, was suddenly stabbed by some terrible force. If my mind had not retreated in time, I am afraid that the source of my mind would have been injured by that terrible force."
Xiao Xuelian took a deep breath and said: "This person seems to be only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul, but the mind power he cultivated is quite similar to the terrible power of 'Shocking Soul Stab' that can cause damage to the mind. Moreover, I feel that this person should have cultivated some more terrible mind spying magic. Do you think he can find the treasure?"
Shi Nian shook his head at first, then nodded. Xiao Xuelian paid close attention to Shi Nian's reaction, and was puzzled to see him shaking his head and nodding like this. But Shi Nian said, "It shouldn't be, this person looks so strange, and just now I used our sect's 'Star God Eyes' to check his entire body, and found that he didn't change his appearance. According to the general, in this Xumi Cave Heaven world, I can recognize all the Yuanying stage cultivators, no matter which sect or island they come from, or whether they are casual cultivators, but I can be sure that I have never seen this person anywhere before. And this person's immortal skills are not only in the early stage of Yuanying, but his body refining skills are even better than mine. I can't even tell what level this person's body refining skills have reached. This is too strange!" "Brother Shi Nian, did you shake your head just now because you couldn't see this person's origin? Then why did you nod?" Xiao Xuelian asked curiously. "I nodded because I felt that this person might have the ability to find out the origin of the treasure. In fact, I noticed this person just when he came in. His behavior was very strange. After he came in, he did not go directly to the Sword God Rock to spy, but used some strange magic to secretly check and spy at the eight sword huts on all sides. I think his behavior must have a deep meaning. I even guessed that this person might be very familiar with this place, which is why he behaved so differently from us." Shi Nian said solemnly.
"Since he has practiced the immortal way of cultivation and has cultivated such a powerful body-refining magic, do you think this person could be Wu Yan, the leader of the Xuan Dao Sect?" After a moment of silence, Xiao Xuelian's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Shi Nian with a look of shock.
Shi Nian was shocked at first, but then shook his head in disapproval, saying, "Impossible? The 'Star God Eyes' that I practiced are the most powerful divine eye skills of my Xumi Sect besides the 'Suhui Buddha Eyes'. My 'Star God Eyes' have never made a mistake. If this person is Wu Yan, then he must have changed his appearance. How could my 'Star God Eyes' not be able to see it?"
Xiao Xuelian stared at Shi Nian for a moment, and saw that his expression seemed to not believe that this person was Wu Yan at all, and he seemed to be extremely confident in his "Star God Eyes" divine eye skills. Then he shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"How about I send someone out to get some information now? Since this person has come here, it is impossible that our spies outside have not received any news. If it weren't for the fact that the forbidden array in the Senluo Wanxiang array was too powerful and even the message talisman could not be transmitted, we wouldn't have to guess so much." Xiao Xuelian said.
"Well, it's better to be careful. This treasure is very important to my Xumi Sect's Emperor Buddha Patriarch. The Patriarch once ordered that we must guard it well no matter what. It would be even better if we could lure out the injured divine beast, the white dog. The Patriarch said that the white dog is now seriously injured. If it doesn't come out to collect spiritual veins in other places to repair its injuries, it will have no chance of recovery if it just hides here. The last time it fought with the Patriarch, it was not only seriously injured, but also was hurt by the Patriarch. The roar of the gods and Buddhas frightened him, and he had the mark of the ancestors on his body, so he would never dare to leave this place easily. If we can capture this white dog, the emperor Buddha ancestors will definitely give us the "avoid disaster pill", so that when the realm is in great disaster, we can not only avoid the most serious disaster of the realm, but also take the opportunity to accept the baptism of part of the disaster, successfully sneak across to the upper realm, and achieve the immortal path. Hehe, such a good thing, I believe that Brother Xiao will not be unmoved, right? "Shi Nian said with an extremely expectant expression on his face.
Xiao Xuelian's face also showed a rare excitement. If he could successfully cross the disaster and ascend to the upper realm before the transformation of the spirit, the benefits would be self-evident.
In this lower realm, not only is the vitality of heaven and earth scarce to the point of almost nothing, but the spiritual energy of the five elements is even more terribly mixed. With his natural talent, if he can ascend to the upper realm, I think his achievements should be much higher than now.
