"What are you doing? You've already eaten, why are you still wasting time?" Many of the water-based spiritual fruits in Haifan City were planted outside the courtyard. The spiritual horse was used to coming here to eat a few fruits and then leave. This time, it began to pester Ma Yue.
"Chee Tu!" Ma Yue actually didn't give him face, and Ling Ma felt embarrassed too. He bit Ma Yue's numb shirt and wouldn't let go. After hanging out for so long, Ling Ma felt that Ma Yue had no ill will towards him.
"No!" Ma Yue roughly understood what the spirit horse meant. He probably thought it had encountered a powerful enemy and needed his help. The grassland was so far away, and with Ma Yue's lazy personality, he didn't want to go out for a long walk.
"Sneezes!"
"I wipe it! You actually spit."
"Sneezes!"
"Come again? Be careful or I'll get mad at you."
"Sneezes..."
"Okay! But you have to carry me."
"Slippery..."
Damn it! What a mess this bastard had made! He even agreed to let me ride it. Ma Yue felt a little regretful. Riding a horse was tiring. But he had just agreed, so he couldn't go back on his word, right?
Forget it, just go out and relax.
"Wangcai! Let's go!" After calling Wangcai, the man, horse and dog rushed out of the west gate of Haifan City and started running wildly on the grass. As for the thousands of wild horses brought by Lingma, Lingma didn't care about them.
Not bad, this bastard ran fast and steady. Riding on the spirit horse's back, it wasn't too bumpy.
They ran and ran, even past the southern branch, and the spirit horse was still running. The spirit horse was so fast that it took the cavalry three days to complete the journey in less than a day.
After running for so long, the spirit horse still had the energy to run wildly.
Yes, this guy walked on the waves on the sea for more than a day and persisted.
"Take a break, I'm tired!"
The spirit horse finally stopped. It was probably because it needed a rest.
"Woo-ah..." Wangcai was also running very fast, but he was tired after running for a whole day.
Ma Yue was too lazy to hunt. He had food in his space bag, including plenty of dried meat. He tossed some to Wangcai and some salted radish to Lingma. Animals also need salt, especially when they're exerting a lot of energy.
Ma Yue took out a leg of lamb and roasted it to eat.
It’s a pity that there is no cumin, otherwise it would taste better.
With Wangcai around, Ma Yue, who had eaten and drunk his fill, had a good sleep. After riding for such a long time, Ma Yue was also tired.
"Sneezes!"
"Okay!" The spirit horse seemed anxious. Ma Yue had not slept for an hour when he was bitten by the spirit horse.
Run, run, run...
"Damn it, we've been running for three days, why haven't we arrived yet?" Ma Yue was getting impatient. This was a distance that took a spirit horse three days to run, which was equivalent to the walking strength of an ordinary cavalryman for more than ten days.
Along the way, Ma Yue passed by many large and small tribes that came here to cultivate the warm area. It had been a whole day, and he hadn't seen a single person.
"Slippery..." It was the tenth day, and Ma Yue had no idea how many times he had complained before the spirit horse finally stopped running.
"arrive?"
"Sneezes!"
"In this cave?" It's just a hill, no more than twenty meters high, basically still within the warm zone.
What's in this cave? A powerful monster?
Animals capable of cultivation are demon beasts, also known as spirit beasts, similar to Wangcai and the spirit horse. Demon beast cultivation is more difficult, as there are almost no systematic cultivation methods, and cultivation relies solely on instinct. Therefore, there are not many demon beasts with high cultivation levels.
However, if you really encounter a demon beast with high cultivation level, it is generally much stronger than a human cultivator of the same level, and it may be too late to run away.
Ma Yue gradually walked towards the huge cave entrance. Feeling that there was no great threat, he drew out his fire spirit sword, while holding a water spirit sword in his other hand.
At the critical moment, Wangcai was still reliable. He followed Ma Yue quietly and stopped barking.
"Slippery..."
Damn it! Why are you so loud? Do you understand the saying, "Enter the village quietly, without firing a gun?" Ma Yue was furious when the spirit horse called out.
What are you doing? Seeing the spirit horse rushing into the cave, so impulsive!
There was no other way, Ma Yue could only follow the impulsive spirit horse and rush in. We are here to help, how can we be afraid before the battle?
The entrance to the cave is not small, but the corridor is only twenty or thirty meters long. At such a fast speed, we reached the end in the blink of an eye.
"You are..." Ma Yue had a very strange feeling, as if he was in the immortal cave on Lingguo Island. On a stone bed, an old man with an immortal look was lying on the stone bed, with his back against the stone wall of the cave, and a desolate look on his face.
Deathly aura! That’s right, Ma Yue’s senses were also very sensitive. The old man was filled with deathly aura. When a person is about to die, there is a certain deathly aura around him. This old man was probably going to die soon.
Wow! This cultivation is unfathomable. Ma Yue has a good feeling about the depth of this old man's cultivation. There is only one reason: his cultivation is at least one major level higher than his own.
No wonder I didn't feel any threat, because my cultivation was not enough and I couldn't sense the aura of high-level cultivators.
"Chee-thu!" The spirit horse nuzzled the deathly old man, who struggled to open his eyes. The spirit horse turned around and bit the corner of Ma Yue's clothes again.
"You really think highly of me, haha!" Ma Yue gave a wry smile. "He's at least a Martial King, and you actually asked me to treat him?" How could someone with such a high level of cultivation still be sick?
"Sneezy!" The spirit horse sprayed saliva on Ma Yue's face again.
"Senior, you don't have any injuries. It seems you've reached the end of your lifespan." Ma Yue took a quick look with his spiritual sense and got a rough idea. It was already remarkable that King Wu could live for two hundred years; he wasn't immortal.
The dying old man nodded, and the spirit horse seemed to understand and stopped torturing Ma Yue.
The old man took out a space bag with difficulty and handed it to Ma Yue, then pointed at the spirit horse.
“Don’t worry, senior. In this warm area, my Haifan City is the most powerful. My people all know the spirit horse, and no one will make things difficult for it.” The spirit horse was probably a spirit beast that the old man had raised since childhood, so he must have been worried before he died.
Generally speaking, demon beasts (spiritual beasts) have much longer lifespans than humans. Just as cultivating a demon beast is difficult, so too is it for human cultivators. Consequently, many human owners die sooner than their own spirit beasts.
It was already quite impressive that this old man had reached the rare Martial King realm. In this world, at least, Ma Yue hadn't seen any mature immortal cultivation systems... Perhaps, earlier, there had been a flourishing period for immortal cultivators?
Ma Yue hadn't communicated much with the immortal cultivators of the same level in this world. After all, this world was huge, and the area Ma Yue had covered in this primitive world was still very small. How could Ma Yue know how many more powerful immortal cultivators there were in the world today?
"Haifan City...Spiritual Horse...Hehe!" The old man's voice was very awkward. After all, he was imitating someone without understanding the language. Then, the old man's expression became completely dim.
"Sneezes!"
"Okay, he's really dead." Ma Yue patted the spirit horse's butt. Spirit beasts are usually very loyal to their masters. Ma Yue also understood the spirit horse's current mood.
