On the back of Changyue Peak, Yang Zhen lay in a pile of weeds and rocks for a long time, expelling all the impurities brought by the cleansing of the meridians and marrow in his body. Just as he was about to stand up, he suddenly heard a whispered conversation coming from somewhere.
"Master... Senior Brother, are you sure the place to cleanse the spirit essence is here? How can there be such a good thing in the wilderness?"
Oh my!
Yang Zhen's eyes suddenly widened. What's going on? Yi Jing Su? Just by hearing the name, you know it's a good thing! Curiosity is a very good tradition. In order to inherit this good tradition, Yang Zhen decided to see what the two planned to do here.
After parting the grass in front of him, Yang Zhen took a breath.
Two disciples, a male and a female from Shangyuan Sect, were acting sneakily, and they clearly looked guilty, and it seemed they had no intention of doing anything good.
"People's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be! People's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be!"
Yang Zhen shook his head and approached the two stealthily: "In broad daylight, a man and a woman are actually doing such a hateful thing. Stealing is shameful, stealing is shameful."
Although the two of them were always paying attention to their surroundings, they could not find Yang Zhen's shadow anywhere, and soon they relaxed again.
"Junior sister, do you still remember the cave at the foot of the mountain?" the male disciple said contentedly.
The female disciple nodded curiously and said, "Is it the cave we were trapped in last time?"
"It's the place where you and I first met. I went there again a few days ago. There might be a treasure there. Once I get that treasure, my cultivation will be greatly improved. I will be accepted as a personal disciple by the elders or even the head monk."
"Ah!" The female disciple said in surprise, "Then don't forget me."
"How could that be!" The male disciple jumped over a rock and said with a strange smile, "Junior sister, follow me."
"Brother, wait for me!" the female disciple exclaimed.
…
Yang Zhen exclaimed, "The cave in the back mountain?" He knew that place, which was quite interesting.
Yang Zhen turned around and left quietly, not passing through the place where the two people passed, so that he would not be discovered so easily.
How clever! Yang Zhen gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.
The back mountain is vast and it is not easy to find a cave. Fortunately, Yang Zhen is very familiar with this place and soon found the cave he remembered. After entering, he did feel a little strange.
Waves of refreshing vital energy came over, making people feel very comfortable. The vital energy here was even more dense than that in the outside world. No wonder that outer male disciple said that a treasure had appeared here.
The further he went in, the more certain Yang Zhen was that there must be good stuff in there.
The cave was not straight up or down, but had several turns. Yang Zhen didn't know how long he had been walking when he suddenly heard a voice coming from inside.
"Brother Duan, are you sure there is really a soul-cleansing essence in here?"
Yang Zhen was stunned when he heard it. How could there be a woman's voice here?
The woman's voice sounds very young, very pleasant and sweet.
Senior Brother Duan? Could it be Duan Langcai?
Yang Zhen hid in the corner and eavesdropped. A muffled voice came: "Junior Sister Fang, how can there be a spiritual essence cleansing place like this? You know very well what kind of person Duan Lang is. Be careful of his conspiracy."
The woman called Junior Sister Fang sighed and said, "Senior Brother Lu, cleansing the spirit essence is extremely important to me. As long as there is a slight possibility, I must give it a try."
Senior Brother Lu snorted and said nothing more.
Yang Zhen followed the few people closely. Duan Lang was only at the ninth level of the Condensation Stage and was almost at the Foundation Establishment Stage. He was very powerful.
A young man with his hair tied up and a hat on laughed and said, "Brother Lu, you are wrongly accusing me. Although I, Duan Langcai, am controversial, I am not a despicable person. How could I lie to deceive others about such a thing?"
"Hmph, no matter how eloquent you are, if you can't see the Spirit Washer for a while, let's see what you have to say."
Duan Langcai looked at Senior Brother Lu with a half-smile: "Senior Brother Lu is right to like Junior Sister Fang, but you can't curse Junior Sister Fang to not be able to find the Spirit Marrow Cleansing, right? Don't you know how important the Spirit Marrow Cleansing is to Junior Sister Fang?"
"You...you are talking nonsense!" Senior Brother Lu was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
"Senior Brother Duan, Senior Brother Lu, you two should stop arguing." Junior Sister Fang's face was filled with anger, and she walked forward in a huff.
Duan Langcai hurriedly followed and said loudly: "Don't worry, Junior Sister Fang, this news was accidentally revealed to me by an outer disciple of Shangyuan Sect. I have been here before, and there is indeed a spirit-cleansing essence inside, but it is not yet mature."
"Really?" Junior Sister Fang was shocked and looked at Duan Langcai in surprise.
"Then is it still fake?"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Duan!" Junior Sister Fang felt a little embarrassed by Duan Langcai's sharp gaze and hurried forward.
Yang Zhen watched from behind and shook his head. In terms of emotional intelligence, this Senior Brother Lu was like a piece of wood in front of Duan Langcai.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
And that outer disciple, how big of a mouth does he have to leak out such information? His IQ is worrying! But now that Duan Langcai and others are here, it is almost impossible for Yang Zhen to take away the spirit cleansing essence without anyone noticing.
We have to think of a way! At this moment, a fork in the road suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Junior Sister Fang stopped hesitantly, turned around and asked Duan Langcai: "Senior Brother Duan, which way should we go?"
Duan Langcai said with a smile: "Both sides are fine, but the left side is closer. How about this, you and I go on the left side, and Senior Brother Lu goes on the right side. When I came here last time, there was a red candle fruit plant over there that was about to mature. Senior Brother Lu can pick it along the way."
"Red Candle Fruit?" Junior Sister Fang exclaimed. It was obvious that the Red Candle Fruit was also very precious.
Senior Brother Lu was obviously a little tempted. He looked at Junior Sister Fang and said through gritted teeth, "There are only three of us here. At worst, we can just walk over there when we come back and collect red candle fruits then."
Junior Sister Fang nodded and said, "That's fine!"
Duan Langcai's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery, then he put on a smile and said, "In that case, let's go to the left together."
Junior Sister Fang glanced at Duan Langcai and suddenly said, "To avoid any accidents, let's go to the right. There is no rush to collect the spirit essence. If someone comes in at this time, it will be bad if the red candle fruit is picked by someone else."
The three of them walked to the right. Yang Zhen was overjoyed and rushed to the left in a hurry, increasing his speed to the fastest along the way.
It was obvious that the woman surnamed Fang was no pushover, but Yang Zhen didn't care. He just wanted to cleanse his spiritual marrow.
With the cleansing of the spirit marrow, Yang Zhen was able to break through to the foundation-building stage in the fastest time. Moreover, the woman surnamed Fang was obviously not as ignorant as she seemed. It was very likely that in the end, even Duan Langcai and Senior Brother Lu would be fooled together.
The world of cultivation is extremely cruel. There are too many cases where people are chatting and laughing one second and then fighting each other the next.
What Yang Zhen is worried about now is how to collect the Spirit Cleansing Marrow before the three people arrive, or simply eat it all.
The Cleansing Spirit Essence is difficult to condense and is said to mature only once in ten years. When Yang Zhen reached the deepest part of the cave, the three people had not arrived yet. He rubbed his hands hurriedly, wanting to collect the Cleansing Spirit Essence.
"Who is it?" A delicate voice came, which scared Yang Zhen.
Still they caught up with me.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath and turned his back. The next moment, the actor was possessed. The expression on his face became profound and his eyes were sharp, as deep as the endless starry sky. He stared at the person who came with a meaningful smile on his lips.
