Chapter 016
Lin Qingyang came to a fork in the road, he looked at Jun
The interior of the Yin Qi Underground is very dark, with only the luminous moss on both sides of the rock wall emitting a faint light.
Lin Qingyang came to a fork in the road. He looked at the map and saw that the left side led to an underground river, while the right side led to a passage to the fourth underground floor.
Without hesitation, he went straight to the left.
His original purpose was to obtain the Magic Fish Gold, so he naturally would not risk going to the fourth underground floor.
The passage here is a bit narrow, and the map also shows that there will be some ghosts here.
Ghosts are considered to be very weak creatures. They have no physical attack capabilities and can only use some crude illusions to confuse people.
As long as one has a firm mind, even ordinary people will not be deceived by ghosts, so Lin Qingyang is not worried about any accidents happening here.
But he didn't expect that not long after he entered the passage, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the front of the passage.
The buzzing sound was getting closer and closer, and Lin Qingyang's face changed drastically.
"Ah?" Cheng Hui looked at him in confusion.
"Oh no, there are ghost bees building a nest nearby." Lin Qingyang thought to himself that he was unlucky.
This ghost bee is rarely seen in normal times, simply because the conditions for the birth of this creature are rather harsh.
However, once the ghost bees appear and are not dealt with in a short period of time, things will become very troublesome.
This thing is very small and there are many of them. Its individual strength is extremely weak, but its huge number is enough to make up for the gap between the two sides.
Lin Qingyang really doesn't like facing this kind of little thing. To be more precise, Lin Qingyang from the Corpse Puppet Sect doesn't like facing this kind of little thing.
According to normal cultivation, his greatest reliance should be his own Xuanshi, but Xuanshi is just a single individual. Facing this kind of ghost that wins by numbers, he really has no idea where to start.
If he was still the original disciple of the Blood Demon Sect, it would be easy to deal with. The Blood Demon Art is the nemesis of this kind of little ghost. But in order to hide his identity, he completely gave up the Blood Demon Art, and now things have become very troublesome.
He pulled Cheng Hui and quickly retreated. Fighting a group of ghost bees in such an environment, he had to be crazy.
Before he could exit the passage, he suddenly heard the footsteps of other people behind him.
"Who is it?" Lin Qingyang stopped and asked.
"Which junior brother is that in front? Is something wrong?" Ouyang Zheng slowed down his pace and slowly walked into Lin Qingyang's sight. He saw an eight-year-old child carrying a mysterious corpse and showed a surprised expression.
"Senior Brother Ouyang." Lin Qingyang knew this man. The eldest senior brother had introduced him to many outstanding disciples in the Corpse Puppet Sect, among whom Ouyang Zheng was the most important.
The power of the Law Enforcement Hall is quite great, but the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall is a cultivation fanatic. Although Ouyang Zheng is only the manager of the Law Enforcement Hall, he is actually the one who handles all the daily chores.
"You are..." Ouyang Zheng had never seen Lin Qingyang, or rather, most people in the Corpse Puppet Sect had never seen Lin Qingyang.
After joining the sect, Lin Qingyang behaved very low-key. He usually practiced hard, and occasionally went out to listen to lectures by senior elders, and he would try to choose those inconspicuous corners.
He was young and inconspicuous in the crowd. Ouyang Zheng was busy with his work, so the two had never met each other.
"Which peak are you from?" Ouyang Zheng recognized the iconic Taoist robe of an inner disciple on Lin Qingyang at a glance and asked softly.
"Lin Qingyang, a disciple of Thirteenth Peak, greets Senior Brother Ouyang." Lin Qingyang bowed.
When Ouyang Zheng heard the name Thirteen Peaks, a smile appeared on his serious face. "So you are Elder Wuyouzi's disciple. You came here..." He glanced at Cheng Hui, slightly surprised, "Are you here to refine the Xuan Corpse? Are you looking for the Demon Fish Gold?"
"Yes. Senior Brother, there is a group of ghost bees approaching behind me..." Lin Qingyang deliberately showed an embarrassed expression.
"Just a ghost bee." Ouyang Zheng smiled. He had also heard the approaching buzzing sound. The ghost bee that Lin Qingyang had trouble dealing with was just a minor nuisance that he could resolve with a simple wave of his hand.
Lin Qingyang also knew this, so he was not anxious at all.
He saw a large dark cloud approaching behind him, and Ouyang Zheng just waved his hand and released a mysterious corpse.
The mysterious corpse was wearing a black and gold armor and a black and gold mask on his face. The exposed skin shone with a metallic luster. His movements were very smooth, unlike Cheng Hui who stumbled like a clumsy person.
The mysterious corpse turned around and glanced at Ouyang Zheng. Ouyang Zheng warned, "They are just a group of ghost bees. Don't get close. Just deal with them from a distance."
The masked corpse nodded, rushed out in a flash, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Cheng Hui looked at the masked corpse with envy as it ran out smoothly, wondering when he would be able to do the same.
He couldn't tell Ouyang Zheng's cultivation level, so he could only roughly guess that he was at the foundation building stage or above. Lin Qingyang was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, so he was still far from the foundation building stage...
Alas...some have waited.
Without making any sound, Cheng Hui heard a rustling sound of falling insects in front of him. It seemed that a large number of flying insects fell to the ground. If nothing unexpected happened, they should be the ghost bees that were eliminated.
Soon, the corpse ran back. Cheng Hui discovered at this time that the lower half of the corpse's face was quite white and its lips were bright red. Even if he couldn't see the face, he could imagine what a stunning face would be under the mask.
After Xuan Shi came back, he nodded to Ouyang Zheng. Instead of going back to the corpse-raising space, he followed them.
Ouyang Zheng explained, "Xiaohong is worried that we might be in danger and won't have time to react, so she wants to follow us to protect us."
When Ouyang Zheng said this, there was a hint of nostalgia on his face.
Lin Qingyang seemed to be lost in thought. He remembered that his senior brother once said that the reason why their Xuanshi sect attached so much importance to their own natal Xuanshi was because these people were very important to them. Originally, he thought that his senior brother was referring specifically to their Thirteen Peaks, but he didn't expect that there were people in the outer peaks who did the same.
The two men and two corpses moved slowly along the passage, protected by a masked corpse. The ghosts were eliminated before they could get close.
The masked corpse is of a high level and has a certain deterrent effect on ghosts. Except for those brainless creatures, ghosts with a little intelligence would have run away as soon as they sensed danger.
The group walked very leisurely and quickly passed through this relatively narrow passage.
After leaving the passage, we entered a fairly spacious space, where we could faintly hear the sound of flowing water in the distance.
Following the sound of water, I soon saw a wide underground river.
The river gurgled by, and a layer of gray mist floated on the black river surface.
The closer to the ground, the stronger the Yin energy became. Cheng Hui staggered over and slowly stretched out a hand to touch it.
Hiss! It’s so cold!
He shuddered and quickly withdrew his hand.
"What's wrong?" Lin Qingyang pulled his hand and looked at it.
The water in the underground river is just full of yin energy and has no bad effect on Cheng Hui.
Cheng Hui couldn't tell Lin Qingyang that he was just cold, so he could only reluctantly shake his head to indicate that he was fine.
"Junior brother's mysterious corpse is quite interesting." Ouyang Zheng walked over and looked at Cheng Hui with interest.
He could naturally see that Cheng Hui was just a walking corpse, which theoretically could only be considered a moving corpse, but Cheng Hui clearly had a strong intelligence, which made him very interested.
"Maybe it's because I'm his fiancé, so he's particularly dependent on me." Lin Qingyang didn't want Cheng Hui to attract too much attention from others, so he simply attributed his behavior to his closeness to himself and showed off at the same time.
Plan goes through! √
Cheng Hui: ...
He was also impressed by Lin Qingyang's way of making their relationship clear at all times.
Ouyang Zheng nodded without thinking too much. The closer the relationship between the Xuan corpse and the cultivator, the easier it is to achieve something. The Xuan corpses made from one's own parents and brothers are indeed more likely to develop intelligence.
"Devil Fish Gold is produced here, but whether you can unleash your talent depends on your luck," Ouyang Zheng warned, pointing to the dark river. "Be careful, the underground river may not be without danger."
Lin Qingyang looked at the turbulent river and nodded: "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother."
Then, Ouyang Zheng struck out with his palm, and a large amount of water splashed suddenly on the surface of the river, and a golden light flashed by.
The masked corpse suddenly moved, and when he came back, he was holding a black stone shaped like a goldfish in his hand.
"You're lucky." Ouyang Zheng smiled and threw it to Lin Qingyang.
Lin Qingyang was stunned for a moment. In the past, he was used to the disciples fighting with each other in the Blood Demon Sect. Now he was suddenly taken care of by his senior brother, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
He thought only the Thirteen Peaks were like this...
He didn't bother to be polite with Ouyang Zheng and directly stuffed the Magic Fish Gold into Cheng Hui's hand.
Cheng Hui also knew the function of the magic fish gold, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Talent and the like...it sounds really awesome. If it can really be activated, it will be the first spell he mastered after traveling through time.
The villain in Cheng Hui rubbed his hands excitedly, then pinched the magic fish Jin in his hands and used spiritual power to communicate.
There is a mystery inside this goldfish-shaped mineral. Cheng Hui can feel that there seems to be something very smart hidden inside.
The thing kept circling around in the ore, refusing to be caught easily by him.
Cheng Hui: ...
Cheng Hui suddenly got angry.
He turned into a zombie, neither human nor ghost, and couldn't speak clearly. This was suffocating enough, and now even a stone wanted to bully him? ? ?
Uncle can tolerate it, but aunt can’t tolerate it anymore!
He used his spiritual power to continuously chase the spiritual light, while his spiritual consciousness spread out a large net to wrap up the entire piece of ore.
The moment he finished doing all this, the spiritual light jumped up like a cat with its fur standing on end.
He could vaguely feel the anger of that spiritual light - young man, you have no moral principles!
We agreed to just go with the flow, why do you have to force love on me?
Scumbag!
he tui!
Cheng Hui: ..._(:з」∠)_
I think there might be something wrong with my brain...
