There are no spirit stones underground in Xiaoyugan Mountain; it is pitch black.
Xiao Jia kept digging with magic in front, and the soft soil flew behind him.
Hoshino followed behind, a glowing spirit stone lamp hanging around his neck, and he quickly slid two pieces of wood to the sides.
The soil was compacted on both sides, and a passage was quickly formed.
The two of them worked together quite well.
"Phew, so tired, I'm almost there..."
Xiao Jia is constantly consuming spiritual energy, and even after forming his core, he will still lack spiritual energy.
He was covered in sweat and his face was pale. He immediately sat down on the ground and began to practice his internal energy.
Yellow earth spirit energy constantly circulated around him.
Hoshino frowned and looked around at the pitch-black surroundings.
Based on his instincts, the black dragon felt that this trip was not safe.
Salia didn't expect them to deal with the cat demon leader.
That was a demon cultivator who had reached the Core Formation stage!
All he wanted was for them to enter the cat demon leader's room and steal her favorite phoenix tail feather inlaid with a wood spirit stone.
In that case, the cat demon leader would definitely be furious and lose his composure.
This way, the dog demons can find her weakness.
However, cats are very powerful animals. They can use their cute and cuddly appearance to gain resources from human cultivators, and they are also major killers in nature, moving very lightly and nimbly.
They also have a peculiar habit: they like to pounce on living, flying animals and hold down things that are shaking.
Hoshino couldn't help but look at his own tail.
He'll definitely fly in his original form in a little while, and with his tail, he'll be a sitting duck for the cat demon.
However, if he moves in human form, his speed will be greatly reduced, and his movements will be restricted.
What should we do?
He's not brainless; he needs to be confident before he can fight, otherwise he'd just be throwing his life away.
After Xiao Jia finished recuperating, he wanted to continue digging, but Xingye stopped him.
"Hey, let's get this straight, how are we going to fight later?"
"Let's not fight, let's sneak in."
"Hmph, you're so stupid. How could a demon cultivator not sense us?"
Xiao Jia took out two talismans and waved them in front of him: "Saria had Xiao Ding secretly give these to me; they can conceal our presence."
There's such a wonderful thing!
It can still conceal its aura!
If he had such a thing, he wouldn't have been captured by the Taoist priest!
Xingye was furious, sparks practically flying from his nostrils: "Why won't he give it to me?"
Xiao Jia chuckled and ruffled his hair: "Because you're the younger brother~"
Who would be happy to be called the younger brother?
Hoshino: "Awooo! I'm angry!"
Xiao Jia: "But you are younger than me!"
Hoshino: "Who said that? Dragons have inherited memories. I can remember many memories that don't belong to me! That makes me older than you! After I form my core, I will definitely be stronger than you, and you can be my younger brother."
Xiao Jia: "That won't do. Headmistress said it's based on the order of Core Formation time. Why don't you blame the Master and ask him why he let me form my Core first?"
Hoshino frowned, thought for a moment, then lowered his head and murmured, "It seems the Master doesn't like me..."
"How could that be? He always saves the best seat for you in class."
"But the Master taught each of you how to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but he never taught me separately..."
"This means you already know. Don't worry, the Master only corrected my misunderstanding about the spiritual energy of the earth; he didn't say anything else. He told me the story of Heaven and Earth, and also about Nuwa's sacred soil~"
“But I don’t know how to sense it…” Hoshino shook her head, her black pearl eyes filled with confusion. “I haven’t learned it, how would I know? My home is in the Divine Realm of the Upper Immortals, and the only thing I can sense is water elemental energy…”
The spirit stone lamp glowed softly, reflecting on his bewildered little face.
Xiao Jia had never seen Hoshino with such an expression before.
I'm a little worried.
"You just said you have inherited memories!" He quickly patted him. "You're not going to go through a mental illusion here, are you? It's not safe here!"
"No, I just don't understand this. Because... never mind, how would you know about dragons? I probably won't form my core. I need Master's help..." Xingye shook his tail and showed it to Xiaojia. "Look, my tail has been like this for the past few days. The scales around my tail won't come off."
"That's good..." Xiao Jia breathed a sigh of relief.
If we were to enter the Illusionary Realm of Inner Demons below Little Fish Mountain, things would be terrible.
The cat demon might discover them.
Moreover, even if this mountain has spiritual plants from the celestial realm, its spiritual energy is still too scarce.
These are all abandoned mountains, where cultivators mined out all the spiritual minerals many years ago. It will take a long time before spiritual minerals reappear, and the spiritual energy will be very thin.
He had only taken a little breathing exercise to recover some of his spiritual energy, and he already felt very uncomfortable.
Now that they have the invisibility talisman, all they need to do is use their senses to locate the cat demon cultivator's position and take the item without anyone noticing.
A moment later.
"It's this! Right here, I smell a very strong cat demon scent. She's so powerful..."
Xiao Jia sensed the cat demon and, after recovering some of his spiritual energy, began digging.
He dug a very small hole.
Bright light was shining down from above.
The cat demon really knows how to live well; she made the room so bright.
There was snoring coming from the room; the demon cultivator seemed to be asleep.
That makes sense; cats are nocturnal, and such bright light must be their prime time to sleep.
