Cultivation World 3: A small battle burned a hundred...
It is public knowledge that the inheritance of the Alchemy Saint is in the secret underground palace. All the cultivators in the sects or large families know about it. The independent cultivators or other people who can find this secret place have also heard of it, but it is still not easy to actually find the entrance.
Ling Xiyuan and the other two knew nothing about the battle formation, and they stomped back and forth eight hundred times on the entrance to the underground palace marked on the map given by the sect's senior sister.
I have to say that although my senior sister’s stick figure map is very abstract, the key points are marked very accurately.
Xie Yunsui pretended to casually kick an inconspicuous stone on the ground.
…
"Come in? This is actually the entrance!?"
Qingwen is now at the ninth level of Qi training and has not yet established his foundation. He was the last one to break through the formation and enter. Seeing that everyone was there, he breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time realized something, which made him extremely surprised.
Zhu Ming looked at Xie Yunsui: "Fellow Immortal Xie, you've also dabbled in formations? You triggered the restriction as soon as you arrived."
Xie Yunsui said modestly: "I'm lucky."
"We owe it to you."
Ling Xiyuan looked around and only found some low-level spiritual plants, but no one. Although the message left by his senior sister said that there were no guards in the underground palace, he still couldn't let his guard down. What if other cultivators came in and ambushed inside in advance?
He had just reached the fifth level of foundation building not long ago and had the highest cultivation level among everyone. He should take care of everyone, so he asked everyone not to get separated and to follow him.
Xie Yunsui followed behind obediently. After walking for a while, he found that he subconsciously held Qingwen behind him, and paid attention to Qingwen's condition from time to time while walking.
Qingwen, on the other hand, was more curious than cautious, and was often attracted by the complexity of the underground palace. Although he tried hard to make his expression serious, he still couldn't hide his naive temperament.
There was an intimate aura between the two of them.
From the same sect, practicing together, are they childhood sweethearts?
Xie Yunsui blinked and paid closer attention to Xiaoxi.
Zhu Ming walked along the way and saw many areas planted with various spiritual plants. He was already dazzled. "These spiritual plants are of good quality. Why don't we pick some first?"
Qing Wen held him back and said, "Hey, don't be so impulsive. These spiritual plants don't have legs and can't run away. Why don't you go find the inheritance of Senior Dan Sheng first? He should have the techniques for collecting spiritual plants. If you go in so clumsily, if you don't use the right techniques, you might end up wasting the plants."
Zhu Ming nodded blankly: "Oh."
Seeing this, Ling Xiyuan explained, "Senior Sister said that Senior Dan Sheng will give gifts to anyone who can pass his test. I think it's more valuable than these spiritual plants."
Zhu Ming had no other thoughts.
Xie Yunsui remained silent. Unlike everyone else who was focused on finding the inheritance, he paid more attention to the fact that the spiritual plants had many signs of being broken.
He had been very careful when picking spiritual plants before. Later, Xie Yan was a child of destiny. Even though he had no knowledge of alchemy, he was taught by the sect on how to collect and preserve spiritual plants during training. He would definitely not treat them so rudely.
Even though most of the spiritual plants here are of low level, they can only be used to make yellow-level pills.
When he was outside looking for Xiaoxi, many people must have come here... His eyes focused, and he took a few steps forward to see the marks on the ice feather grass stems clearly.
"Thank you, Immortal Friend?" Qing Wen noticed Xie Yunsui's movements behind him and hurriedly reminded him, "The inheritance might be nearby..."
Ling Xiyuan glanced at him and saw that his expression was not right, so he asked, "But what's the problem?"
Xie Yunsui lowered his voice and said, "A group of people passed by here an hour before us."
The three of them were suddenly startled.
Ling Xiyuan asked, "Are you sure?"
Xie Yunsui pointed at the spiritual plants under his command and said, "Ice Feather Grass is delicate and must be harvested with its roots to retain its maximum energy. Otherwise, the spiritual energy will be rapidly lost within two hours. All of these Ice Feather Grasses have had their heads pinched off, and nearly half of their spiritual energy has been lost."
After he explained this, the three of them understood.
Unless there is another exit in the underground palace, and they didn't see anyone when they came, it means that that group of people was waiting in front of them.
Is he accepting inheritance? Or is he waiting for an ambush?
Zhu Ming looked unhappy when he saw these spiritual plants being treated so roughly. "...Even if I don't understand, I know that spiritual herbs can't be collected like this."
Monks need money to buy elixirs and exchange for magical instruments, and collecting spiritual plants is the most convenient way to exchange them for spirit stones. Most immortal sects will give their disciples a word or two of advice when teaching them to take care of spiritual herbs. Even if they don't give any advice, they will know to treat spiritual plants well after suffering losses once when selling them.
Only people who don't mind exchanging spiritual plants for money would treat them like this.
Who would have a problem with Lingshi?
Even Qingwen, who was not very worldly-wise, thought of this: perhaps only a cultivator of evil would do something so self-defeating and harmful.
The techniques practiced by demon cultivators are different from those of immortal cultivators, and the elixirs they take are naturally different as well. For example, the Heart-Clearing Pill made with Ice Feather Grass as the raw material is useless to demon cultivators, as they do not need a clear mind.
Although they could exchange spiritual plants for money, compared to the price they spent on concealing their own demonic energy, the spiritual stones they exchanged for the spiritual plants were not even enough to buy two bottles of medicine.
The evil cultivators are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. As long as the immortal cultivators cannot get away with it, they will make a profit.
The three of them took out their own magical weapons, prepared for someone to suddenly appear.
It's impossible to leave.
Now that I'm here, I must go and take a look at the Dan Sheng inheritance place.
What if these demon cultivators are waiting here for the immortal cultivators to come to them? Even if they leave now, they may encounter them in the future. The longer the time goes, the more thorough the arrangements made by the demon cultivators here will be. Even if it is not them, someone else will suffer. It is better to take advantage of the fact that these people are not prepared and have a fierce fight with them first.
Xie Yunsui had already flipped through the plot and read it again, because the main perspective was always on the protagonist, and there was very little description of these three people.
His Xiaoxi was just a cannon fodder who died shortly after appearing on the scene. There was not a single word about Qingwen and Zhu Ming from the beginning to the end of the secret realm.
Xie Yunsui figured out from the timeline that perhaps it was this time that caused these three people to suffer heavy losses.
Xie Yan was rescued by Ling Xiyuan three months after the secret realm was opened. At that time, Ling Xiyuan was the only one there. Judging from how much he took care of Qingwen, it was very likely that Qingwen had passed away since he was not around.
Xie Yunsui hesitated for a moment and decided to go with them.
The path of cultivating immortals has always been about fighting against people and against heaven. Although he didn't want to see Xiaoxi get hurt, he also knew that blindly clearing the obstacles ahead for Xiaoxi would only delay his cultivation.
So he couldn't let the little bees go to the front and take care of the people in advance, so he decided to fight with them.
He also took out a sword from the space.
Compared to other people's magic weapons that contain spiritual energy and appear to be shining, his sword is very pure, so pure that it does not look like a sword used by a monk.
Ling Xiyuan's eyes swept over his sword, without saying anything, just whispered a warning.
"Proceed with caution."
As expected, there were three demon cultivators lying in ambush in the inheritance hall, hiding very secretly. If Xie Yunsui had not discovered their traces outside and asked everyone to be on guard in advance, they would have been caught off guard as soon as they entered the hall.
Ling Xiyuan had the highest cultivation level, and he faced a demon cultivator alone. However, he was a sound cultivator after all, so he was at a disadvantage in close combat and could only barely hold on.
Zhu Ming had just stabilized at the initial stage of foundation building, and it was difficult for him and Qing Wen to fight against a demon cultivator at the same time.
Xie Yunsui restrained one person, turned around and looked at the fighting styles of several people. Combined with the few battles he had seen outside before, he finally figured out what level he should adjust himself to.
The demon cultivator who was fighting against him saw that he was holding an ordinary sword, which was not even a magic weapon, and sneered to himself. He was about to kill him, but the next second, a burst of blood spurted out from his neck.
Perhaps it was too unbelievable, the demon cultivator couldn't utter a word when he fell to the ground.
Xie Yunsui kicked him unhappily. This guy, why was he still distracted during the fight?
He glanced at the three people and chose to help Xiaoxi without hesitation. He just pretended to be a little exhausted after just finishing a fight, and occasionally deflected the opponent's killing move and shot down the opponent's hand that was ready to do something bad.
Ling Xiyuan had a chance to catch his breath. He looked at Xie Yunsui with gratitude, and then concentrated on finding the flaws in his demon cultivation and solving them in one fell swoop.
The remaining demon cultivator saw that the situation was hopeless and was about to escape when he was pierced through the back by a sword.
Zhu Ming panted and sighed, "Thank you, Immortal Friend, for your impressive cultivation."
He hadn't realized it before, what a mistake.
Ling Xiyuan also collected the magic weapon and came over to express his gratitude: "Thank you, fellow immortal, for helping me just now."
Xie Yunsui smiled slightly and said politely, "It's only natural. We should help each other."
Qingwen had been concentrating on fighting the enemy and hadn't noticed how powerful Xie Yunsui was. Now that both of them were praising him, he couldn't help but wonder, "Is Xianyou Xie's cultivation higher than Senior Brother Ling's?"
Xie Yunsui's performance before was... just like hers, and the sword was so ordinary.
Ling Xiyuan thanked his immortal friend in his heart, thinking that he had deliberately concealed his strength before. His aura during the battle was clearly that of the early stage of foundation building, sometimes in the middle stage of foundation building. Now that the battle is over, he doesn't know what method he used, but he looks like a mortal who has never practiced.
He thought about Xie Xianyou's previous experience and felt that it was normal.
"I'm afraid Immortal Friend Xie doesn't want to act in a high-profile manner. Let's deal with these evil cultivators first." Ling Xiyuan changed the subject again.
Xie Yunsui didn't know what they were thinking, but he felt quite sorry for the energy he had just spent.
I didn't expect that pretending to be at the Foundation Establishment stage would take so much energy, and this was just a battle that lasted less than half an hour.
The Wanjie Shop was not deceiving me. The two-star world is indeed not a place that can be easily visited.
After going through these worlds, the energy value allocated to Xie Yunsui has accumulated to a value in the billions. It only takes 1 million energy to travel to a two-star world. Xie Yunsui naturally cannot keep staying in the one-star world, so he tried to choose a two-star.
Who would have thought that a small battle would burn up one million energies, which is faster than Xiao Wan's energy loss in the apocalyptic world.
In other words, even if he worked hard all his life in modern society, he would not be able to fight 30 battles in the world of cultivation.
But in the world of cultivation, where the strong prey on the weak, how can we avoid fighting?
If he doesn't look for trouble, trouble will find him.
Xie Yunsui was eager to earn energy, the more the better.
