Late at night, a bonfire was lit in front of the west gate of the ruins.

Everyone sat around the campfire, some closed their eyes to rest, some practiced diligently, and some chatted in low voices.

At this moment, there are many more warriors here than during the day.

They are basically from other sects in Dongxuan Territory. Everyone doesn’t cause trouble for each other and everything is fine.

Li Zhiming's eyes were dark and deep, reflecting the burning flames, and looked bright and lively.

After half a day of rest, his condition has returned to its peak and his realm has also improved slightly.

One third of his stored blood and true energy was consumed, bringing his realm to the middle stage of the third rank (66%). His physical body had surpassed most of the first rank monsters, and his mental strength was at the middle stage of the second rank (55%).

Following this trend, by absorbing all the blood and true energy, he can easily step into the late third level.

Li Zhiming looked around and his eyes fell on Ji Ling'er not far away.

Ji Ling'er noticed Li Zhiming's gaze and a charming smile appeared on her face.

She stood up and waved her hand lightly. A stream of icy energy rushed out, the bonfire went out, and wisps of black smoke rose up.

"Li Zhiming, next time we meet, I will definitely catch you with my own hands."

Ji Ling'er looked at Li Zhiming with a cold voice.

“…”

Li Zhiming didn't say anything, but just smiled faintly, while stimulating the remaining stamen granulations in his body.

Before Ji Ling'er finished her words, she jumped up, floating in the night sky, looked down at Li Zhiming, then turned and left.

At this moment, her pretty face suddenly changed, the mother insect in her body suddenly became manic, a surge of evil fire surged in her heart, and she became orgasmic in an instant.

This time, the queen insect was more manic than ever before, and the aphrodisiac toxin it released was several times stronger than before, which caught Ji Ling'er off guard.

Her face flushed and she was swaying in the air, almost unable to hold back a cry.

"Li Zhiming!"

Ji Linger gritted her teeth and yelled angrily.

Then she mobilized the internal energy and performed witchcraft to suppress the poisonous insects in her body.

"Just wait for me!"

Ji Ling'er lost her composure in front of so many people and was obviously angry. After all, she is a person who cares about face.

"Goodbye, I won't see you off."

A playful smile appeared on Li Zhiming's face.

“Okay, okay!”

"Li Zhiming, you are doing very well!"

"I'll remember you... Fuck!"

Ji Ling'er cursed and disappeared into the night sky in shame.

"Junior Brother Li, Ji Ling'er doesn't seem to be in a good state. What happened to her?" Liang Meng on the side asked curiously.

"Nothing, it's just my own fault."

Li Zhiming replied simply.

At this time, Yang Zhou came galloping out of the dark forest. He brushed off the leaves on his body and looked around.

"Brother Li, did that witch Ji Ling'er run away?"

"She just left, and you want to catch her?" Li Zhiming asked.

"Ji Ling'er is a rare genius in the Hehuan Sect. At such a young age, she is already a third-rank expert on par with me."

"What's more, Brother Li, you said that this witch possesses magical secrets. Even you can't keep her, so how can I?" Yang Zhou sat down and took two sips of water.

"What did you gain?" Li Zhiming asked again.

"After searching for a long time, I finally found a disciple token of Xuantian Dao Sect, but it was rotten."

Yang Zhou opened his palm, and a broken blue jade plate appeared.

"It's missing a corner, but it doesn't affect the overall structure, so it should be usable."

Li Zhiming replied.

"Then my luck is pretty good. It's fine as long as it can be used." Yang Zhou smiled happily when he heard it.

"Brother Li, when do you decide to set off?" Yang Zhou asked.

"We'll talk about it tomorrow."

"Brother Li, I'm giving you this token as a token of thanks."

"It just so happens that you and your senior sister entered the ruins together." Yang Zhou raised his eyebrows.

"What about Brother Yang? Are you not going to go in?"

"I still have a group of brothers under my command. I can't just leave them alone. It won't be too late to collect the tokens after all the people in the Scarlet Tavern are gathered."

Yang Zhou replied with a cheerful smile on his face.

"Okay then, I'll take this token."

Li Zhiming did not act pretentiously and accepted the token.

"It's very late, I won't bother you two anymore."

Yang Zhou bowed to Li Zhiming and Liang Meng, then turned and returned to the crowd in the Bloody Tavern.

"Sister, here's the token for you."

"Junior Brother Li, what is this token?"

Liang Meng played with the token with a curious look on his face.

She injected her true energy into the token and felt a hint of coolness. The circulation of her blood and true energy in her body became faster!

"This... can actually warm up the blood and nourish the Qi."

A look of surprise appeared on Liang Meng's face.

"This relic is the remains of a super sect from ancient times. This token is the key to enter it, and it is also the identity token of the disciples of this super sect."

Li Zhiming replied simply.

"It's just an identity token, but it actually has such an effect. It's considered a very high-grade spiritual weapon."

"It's hard to imagine how powerful this super sect is."

Liang Meng's expression became serious.

As a direct disciple of the sect, her identity token did not have such a function, and the materials used were far inferior to the one in her hand.

You know, Zhenyuan Sect is one of the six major sects in Dongxuan Territory, and it can be said to be the leading existence in this area.

Comparing the two, Liang Meng realized the gap between Zhenyuan Sect and the real ancient super power.

“There is always someone better than you.”

"The super sects of the ancient times, their foundation and strength are simply not comparable to the six major sects, and they are even stronger than the Taichu Holy Land."

“This is a huge opportunity for us.”

"Senior Sister, how was your rest?" Li Zhiming asked again.

"I consumed too much energy before and suffered some injuries. Now my condition should have recovered to 80%." Liang Meng replied.

"Eighty percent..."

"Then we'll set off tomorrow morning. While everyone is still unclear about the details of the ruins and how to get in, we can go in early and seize the initiative."

Li Zhiming thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay, I'll recover as soon as possible."

Liang Meng nodded.

Li Zhiming sat down and roasted a pheasant on the campfire.

The surface of the pheasant gradually turned golden yellow and was covered with shiny fat.

While the food was roasting, Li Zhiming took out the soul bottle and sank his mental power into it.

In the closed space, a thin black mist wandered back and forth at the boundary of the space.

Hehehe~

The black fog made a sound that seemed to be laughing but not laughing.

Li Zhiming's mental power turned into a phantom and appeared above the black fog.

"Oh, I didn't realize you were quite happy." Li Zhiming said with a smile.

"Hehehe~Who?"

The black fog turned its head, its scarlet eyes moved rapidly, and finally locked onto Li Zhiming's figure.

"Hehehe~ It's you!"

"Human, let me out, or you will be doomed sooner or later!"

“Hehehe~”

The black fog rolled and spread out.

The strange creature revealed its true form, which was a little thicker than before it was caught, about the same size as a wrist, a strip-shaped creature with a round head and two red eyes.

It is completely black and smooth, without any unnecessary embellishment.

"You are about to die, but you are still talking nonsense. Who gives you the confidence?" Li Zhiming smiled.

"That is naturally my great Lord."

“Hehehe~”

It's so weird, I don't know if he's sick, but he laughs every time he speaks.

"host?"

Li Zhiming frowned slightly.

"Where is your master?"

"My Lord is everywhere."

“Jie…”

This time, the weirdness didn't make him laugh because Li Zhiming was tired of listening to it.

The mental power condensed into a palm and pinched the strange body.

The strange thing struggled and tumbled like a loach, but could not break free from Li Zhiming's restraints.

"Who is your master, where are you from, how long have you been here, and what is your purpose?"

"Answer me these questions, or else."

“Souls are scattered!”

Li Zhiming's voice was indifferent, and the yin and yang energy swept out, covering the weirdness.
