Chapter 148 Fire Mole Cricket

Yuanlong City.

A small town located on the northern border of Qingzhou, with an endless sea of ​​forest to the north of the city.

It is said that to the north of the forest lies the demon tribe.

Therefore, there would be a beast invasion approximately every few decades, with Yuanlong City bearing the brunt of the attack, so the outer walls were covered with mottled traces of battle.

In addition, a large number of monks gathered here.

Either go north to practice, or go to the depths of the forest to kill monsters and seek opportunities.

Although Yuanlong City is not big, it has abundant resources for cultivating immortals.

…

Food is the Heaven, a restaurant famous far and wide in Yuanlong City.

This restaurant does not entertain mortals, only cultivators. It sells good things such as spiritual wine and monster meat, and payment is made only with spiritual stones.

At noon, a young monk in a green Taoist robe walked into the restaurant.

In the middle stage of foundation building, he has an elegant aura.

"Waiter, serve the wine and the meat!"

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!"

This Taoist was naturally Ning Daoran, who had transformed into the wanderer Jianjia. After placing the table full of wine and meat, he began to feast on the food.

Not long after, a golden elixir aura flashed into the restaurant.

He is an old man in a gray robe, the Jinxia Monster, the former supreme elder of the Fenhai Sect.

Before, as Fenhai Sect became a subordinate sect of Jiuyun Sect, this old monster Jinxia devoted himself to the evil ways and had not been seen for many years.

"Is this Young Friend Jianjia?"

Old Monster Jinxia sat down opposite without any hesitation.

"Who are you, senior?" Ning Daoran pretended not to know him.

"My Taoist name is Jinxia Zhenren."

Old Monster Jinxia grinned and said, "However, fellow Taoists in the world of immortal cultivation usually call me Old Monster Jinxia."

As he spoke, Jinxia Old Monster transmitted his voice: "Young friend Jianjia, are you really a second-level formation master as Baiming Old Monster said?"

"That's right." Ning Daoran also transmitted the message.

"That's great."

Old Monster Jinxia said, "This journey is quite dangerous. Let's not talk about the fierce creatures in the Feixing Secret Realm. The Soul Devouring Old Monster has a weird and capricious temper. Stay away from him, my friend. In the secret realm... try to follow me as much as possible. I will naturally protect you."

"In that case, thank you, Senior Jinxia!"

Ning Daoran's eyes showed excitement and excitement.

…

Not long after, the sky was filled with wind and clouds, and another aura of middle-stage Jindan came through the wind.

His figure flashed and turned into a kind old man in a white robe.

The supreme elder of the Jiuyun Sect, Master Duye.

"Old Monster Jinxia, ​​you're here so early."

"Humph, Duye old ghost, you are not slow either."

The old monster Jinxia said, "This is friend Jianjia, a second-level formation master, who is traveling with us."

"oh?"

Master Duye’s eyes lit up.

In the eyes of a great cultivator like him, a mid-stage foundation building cultivator was mediocre, and a second-level formation master was also mediocre. But being both a mid-stage foundation building cultivator and a second-level formation master was considered relatively outstanding.

The Feixing Secret Realm is full of dangers. A second-level formation master is certainly important, but a second-level formation master who has the ability to protect himself is obviously more useful.

After all, when faced with danger, not everyone has the energy to protect others.

This Jianjia Sanren can die in the secret realm, but he cannot die too early. He can only die after those important restrictions are broken.

"Little friend Jianjia."

Master Duye's lips moved silently, and he transmitted his voice: "Although you are a casual cultivator, you are still a righteous cultivator after all. After entering the Feixing Secret Realm, remember to follow me and Fellow Daoist Jinxia closely. He is one of us."

"yes!"

Ning Daoran looked at this Jindan senior with gratitude.

In fact, he just needs to listen to his seniors' words.

Whether it is a human or a ghost, you will only know after entering the secret realm.

However, judging by Ning Daoran's experience, if one wants to survive to the end, he should treat everyone as ghosts in advance, so that the chances of survival will be greater.

Not long after, two figures landed in the restaurant.

A man and a woman. The man was wearing a white shirt and holding a long sword. He was very handsome. His name was Tan Shangyu, a great monk in the late foundation building stage.

The woman was wearing a light green flowing cloud dress and was extremely beautiful. She was known as Fairy Ning Yu and was also a great cultivator in the late foundation-building stage.

Both of them are true disciples of Jiuyun Sect.

"Greetings to Uncle Duye!"

"No need to be polite, Ning Yu, are you and Shang Yu ready?"

"I'm ready, please rest assured, uncle!"

"That's good. This is Fellow Daoist Jinxia, ​​and this is Little Fellow Jianjia. I've already told you about them in the sound transmission note."

"yes."

Fairy Ning Yu stepped forward and bowed. After meeting Old Monster Jinxia, ​​she glanced at Ning Daoran with her beautiful eyes and smiled, saying:

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Jianjia is so gentle and refined, and doesn't look like a casual cultivator."

"You are overpraising me, fairy."

Ning Daoran said, "I am a wild man from the mountains. I am used to practicing alone and I am not good at talking. That is why I look like this. I am sorry to make you laugh, Fairy."

Fairy Ning Yu covered her mouth and chuckled.

On the side, Tan Shangyu frowned and didn't even have the interest to greet Ning Daoran.

Not long after, Mr. Bai Ming arrived and they exchanged greetings.

…

In the afternoon, three more people arrived at Yuanlong City, exhausted.

Amid the thick demonic atmosphere, a familiar figure appeared in the restaurant.

The soul-devouring old demon, dressed in a black robe, had a gleam in his eyes and looked shrewd and calculating.

Decades ago, outside the Cangnan Secret Realm, Ning Daoran had met the Soul-Devouring Demon once, and naturally remembered the appearance of this demon deeply in his mind.

Now, the cultivation of this soul-devouring old demon has further improved, and he has actually broken through to the late Golden Core stage, and is only a stone's throw away from becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Of course, the task of condensing an infant is as difficult as ascending to heaven. It seems to be within reach, but in fact it is out of reach.

In addition, there were two people following behind the Soul-Eating Demon.

An old man in a dark grey short-sleeved shirt, named Zhang Nan, a magic cultivator in the late foundation building stage.

There is also a man with broken eyebrows who looks extremely fierce, known as Qin Lao Mo. His exact name is unknown, but he is also a demon cultivator in the late foundation building stage.

The two of them are both staunch members of the Soul Devouring Cult, and can be considered the right-hand men of the Soul Devouring Demon. They have an undisguised demonic aura and look as if they don't like anyone.

"Fellow Daoist Duye, Fellow Daoist Jinxia, ​​and Fellow Daoist Baiming, it's been a long time."

Several Jindan exchanged greetings.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Everyone was very polite and chatted about the major events that had happened in the immortal world in recent years, but they did not mention the battle between good and evil, and they had a tacit understanding.

"Is this the young friend Jianjia?"

The Soul-Eating Demon looked over. He was very arrogant and actually used his spiritual sense to scan Ning Daoran's entire body.

"yes."

Ning Daoran was currently practicing the Breath-Concealing Method of the Return to Nature level, but he still felt a little guilty. If this old monster in the late Jindan stage saw through him, it might be a bit troublesome.

"A second-level formation master, a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, young friend Jianjia is really good!"

The Soul Devouring Demon narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "After entering the Flying Star Secret Realm, I will have to ask you to take care of several important restrictions."

"Don't worry, senior."

Ning Daoran clasped his fists and said, "Since you have already agreed that if you find the Flying Star Centipede in the secret realm, you will give it to me. Then it is my job to help you seniors break the restriction."

"That's great."

The Soul Devouring Demon said, "Since we are all here, shall we set off immediately? This place is not too far from the secret realm, but it is not close either."

"good!"

…

Suddenly, everyone turned into streaks of light and left Yuanlong City.

Several Jindan monks were the fastest and were walking in the front.

After them came Fairy Ning Yu, Tan Shangyu, the man with broken eyebrows and Zhang Nan.

Ning Daoran has the lowest cultivation level, and is the only one in the middle stage of foundation building among the group, so he controls his escape speed to the slowest.

Sweat even appeared on his forehead, and he looked quite exhausted.

"Daoist Fellow Jianjia."

The big man with the broken eyebrows, Qin Lao Mo, sneered: "Do you want me to wait a little longer and wait for you, fellow Taoist?"

"Don't bother."

Ning Daoran's body was filled with the aura of the Evergreen Technique, and he said, "I will try my best to catch up with you fellow Taoists!"

"Fellow Daoist Jianjia, thank you for your help."

Fairy Ning Yu smiled sweetly.

There is something about this woman that naturally attracts men. Ning Daoran can't understand it, so he prefers to call it a feeling.

It was probably because of this feeling that the cultivator named Tan Shangyu had been protecting Fairy Ning Yu, fearing that she would make the slightest mistake. He always called her "Junior Sister Ning Yu" in a very cordial manner.

"snort!"

Zhang Nan and Qin Lao Mo secretly sneered.

What senior brothers and junior sisters, in the eyes of the evil way, they are all a bunch of thieves and prostitutes.

This Tan Shangyu seems to be very interested in Fairy Ning Yu, but what is he after? Isn't it her flawless body? Bah! Despicable!! ...

About half a day later.

The escape speed of several Jindan monks slowed down, and their bodies sank into an endless deep forest.

All the secret realms in this world of immortal cultivation seem to be deep in the forest, making them difficult to be discovered.

Ning Daoran was the last one to fall, panting and his face a little pale, which was a sign that his magic power was being depleted too quickly.

"Little friend Jianjia, take a rest."

Bai Ming said: "There is still about half a day before the secret realm opens, which is enough time for you to recover your mana."

"good."

Ning Daoran came to an open space and sat cross-legged in meditation.

Not far away, entangled by countless vines, a huge stone head of Buddha fell to the ground, covered with large patches of moss, full of ancient atmosphere.

This place should have been an ancient temple in the past, but it has been abandoned for who knows how many years.

…

A few hours later.

Suddenly there was a vibration from underground.

Ning Daoran opened his eyes immediately.

"What's wrong? Is the secret realm about to open?" Zhang Nan asked with a frown.

"It's not time yet."

The Soul Devouring Demon narrowed his eyes and said, "No, this breath comes from underground. Fellow Taoists, be careful and take to the air immediately!"

Suddenly, everyone flew into the air.

Ning Daoran floated up and scanned the depths of the ground with his spiritual sense, only to discover an extremely strong aura of a monster.

In addition, the deep ground was ablaze with red flames, and there was even a faint glow of fire spewing out from the cracks in the ground.

"boom--"

The ground in the forest suddenly bulged and cracked, and then a giant beast with flames all over its body appeared in front of everyone. It looked like a mole cricket, but it was extremely huge! "Be careful, it's a fire mole cricket, a third-level early stage monster!"

Master Duye narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "It looks like it's the demon beast guarding the entrance to the secret realm. Fellow Taoists, how about we work together to kill it?"

"It's just a third-level initial stage demon beast, why should it be worth mentioning?"

The Soul-Devouring Demon spread out his five fingers, and suddenly a giant blood-colored magic bell flew up in his palm!
