"The antlers and organs of the saber-horned deer are both rare materials, whether used for refining pills or refining weapons."
Gao Han removed the antlers and usable organs of the saber-horned deer.
Not long after they started walking, they were attacked by monsters, and the person walking in front of them had long disappeared.
"The monsters around here are not too strong, so most of the good stuff is inside." Zhongli Tingzhou put away his sword.
He could kill a group of these monsters without even much effort.
"We also need to speed up." Gao Han said with a frown.
One of the main purposes of their visit to the Shuangdong Secret Realm this time was to find more resources and repair the Yin-Yang Bead, which was like a glutton.
There is also his Yayoi Ring. After this transformation, the problems left over from the last time he passed through the space rift were also highlighted.
If it cannot be repaired, he cannot be sure whether the Yayoi Ring will be damaged if he blocks it again.
"No rush. Let them try their best to find it. The more they find, the better." Zhongli Tingzhou curled the corners of his mouth.
"We don't know how powerful those monsters are, so it's better to be careful." Gao Han knew what he was thinking with his toes.
"Who said I only hunt demons?" Zhongli Tingzhou's eyes drooped slightly, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in them. "If the righteous forces dare to provoke me, I will not spare a single one."
Gao Han did not stop him, but said calmly: "If you really want to do it, just don't leave any evidence behind, otherwise it will be hard for Elder Sun to explain when he gets out."
"Got it." Zhongli Tingzhou raised the sword in his hand lazily.
The two continued to walk inside.
The spiritual energy in the Shuangdong Secret Realm is extremely rich, and therefore many natural treasures grow there, especially magical medicines and herbs.
Every few steps you can see a plant, such as the nectar branch, the bone soul flower, the stone yellow seed and the feather silk grass, etc., which are all magical herbs used as medicine.
I don’t know whether the people walking in front of them didn’t see it or they saw it but didn’t pick it.
Gao Han took it without hesitation.
Anyway, the Shuangdong Secret Realm is not small, and it is impossible to search it all in a short time.
Moreover, they encountered some monsters along the way. The further they went inside, the stronger the monsters became.
Some treasures are even guarded by monsters. If you want to touch these things, you need to kill these monsters first.
After a few hours, even though Gao Han didn't deliberately look for good things, he still harvested a lot of things.
Some of it was kept, and the rest was absorbed by Zhongli Tingzhou.
Afterwards, they encountered a group of Foundation Establishment Stage monsters, led by a Golden Core Stage monster. Its eyes were all red, and it attacked them like a madman.
"Let me do it, you watch." Gao Han took the initiative to land in the center of the group of monsters.
Monsters from all directions immediately gathered together.
The roar continued.
Seeing that he could kill several Foundation Establishment stage monsters with one sword, Zhongli Tingzhou sat on a tree branch, watched him do it, and chatted with him.
"The spiritual energy in this secret realm is so rich, what do you think is the reason?"
"There should be a spiritual cave here." Gao Han replied casually.
"Spirit cave?"
Gao Han sighed, "I told you to read more books, but you just spend the whole day messing around. Do you know what people like you are called?"
"Are you trying to say illiterate?" Zhongli Tingzhou didn't care.
"That's good to know."
Zhongli Tingzhou shrugged, "I have you here."
"In the future, if we have different tasks or things to do and have to separate, you can't expect others to help you. When this trip is over, you should go back and stay in the Canggong Pavilion for three days. You are not allowed to come out before three days." Gao Han was doing this for his own good. If he didn't know anything, he would easily miss a lot of things.
"Got it." Zhongli Tingzhou was still the same.
However, Gao Han knew that he had listened to him, and if he dared not go, he had a way to deal with him.
"A spirit cave is a spirit pond formed by the liquefaction of spiritual energy. Usually, a spirit pond is formed when there is a spiritual mine underground, and the spiritual energy from the spiritual mine seeps out."
"In areas near spirit caves, the concentration of spiritual energy in the air will also increase. This is one of the ways to identify spirit caves, but it is only a possibility, not necessarily. There may be other reasons, but generally this reason cannot be avoided."
Seeing that he had killed most of the monsters and had already dug out the inner core of the leading monster, Zhongli Tingzhou jumped off the tree branch and said, "Then it would be better if we go directly to find the spirit cave."
"That's good, but do you know where to find it?" Gao Han put away the inner elixir. The inner elixir of the monster beast in the Jindan period can be used to refine weapons and pills.
"I don't know, but we have you. My wife is so capable, there must be a way." Zhongli Tingzhou flattered loudly.
Gao Han felt that he had been rolling his eyes a lot recently and almost didn't want to talk to him anymore.
However, although he said that he didn't want things to go his way, he still paid close attention afterwards.
If they really want to find a spiritual cave, no matter what grade it is, it will be much better for them than searching for resources everywhere now.
After that, the two of them wandered around in the secret realm for most of the day but found nothing.
Zhongli Tingzhou said: "Fugui has always advanced, but at this moment, if he is awake, he can ask the monsters where the spirit cave is like he did on Earth."
"The language also needs to be understandable." Gao Han poured a bucket of cold water over.
When they came here, they couldn't communicate in the same language. Later they learned the language of Lingtian Continent and the language of demons, and only then could they become what they are now.
"If it is so stupid that it can't even learn animal language, it is not worthy of being my son." Zhongli Tingzhou snorted.
"Really? You haven't even learned its animal language yet." Gao Han said.
Zhongli Tingzhou was not annoyed by being tricked, "It speaks the language of a ghost beast, who can understand what it is saying?"
Gao Han sneered. He had the nerve to make excuses for himself and even blame others.
"Hey, what is this?" Zhongli Tingzhou jumped off the tree branch and was attracted by something in the crack of the rock next to him.
"Changing the subject?" Gao Han raised his eyebrows, thinking he was doing it on purpose.
"No way, I really found something. If you don't believe me, come and take a look. It looks like a magical herb." Zhongli Tingzhou raised his hand to show that he was not lying.
Gao Han walked over. There were a few large rocks on his right. Between the cracks of the rocks, there was indeed a magical herb swaying.
"Jade Dragon Grass?"
Seeing his surprised look, Zhongli Tingzhou asked, "Special alchemy materials?"
Gao Han dug out information about Jade Dragon Grass from his mind and explained, "This spiritual grass is not used for making pills. It is one of the recipes of a species called Crystal Weasel."
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately lost interest. "Many things here are also part of my recipes."
"Stop it, I haven't said the important thing yet. Do you know what the characteristics of the crystal-eyed weasel are?"
"What characteristics?"
Gao Han narrowed his eyes, "If I remember correctly, there is a very rare elixir in the Crystal-Eyed Weasel's diet."
…
"That's right, it should be here."
A young man named Pan was holding a painted ink pattern in his hand. On it were three mountains towering into the sky. The middle one was higher, forming a mountain-shaped picture.
There were also three peaks in front of them, almost exactly the same as those painted on the ink canvas.
The fellow apprentice said excitedly: "It seems that Uncle Li and the others are not wrong. The Twin Caves Secret Realm is one of the blessed places in the East Continent. With this map, we can find the spiritual cave."
"Don't be happy too soon." The young man surnamed Pan was very calm.
"So many years have passed, and many maps of the East Continent have long been lost. The maps we have are not necessarily very detailed. In addition, the Shuangdong Secret Realm has been isolated for many years, and many terrains have actually changed. It is good that these three peaks have been preserved."
Hearing this, the two people's boiling emotions cooled down a little.
"Brother Pan, according to what you said, how do we find the spirit cave?"
The young man surnamed Pan thought for a moment, "Previous data did not record that there is a spirit cave in the Shuangdong Secret Realm. This spirit cave is probably not too old. It must have been created later. The aura is probably not too strong. We can only start with its companion beast."
"Brother Pan, why did you ask us to collect so many spiritual herbs? If we are dealing with a companion beast, one should be enough, right?"
The two were a little confused. Senior Brother Pan had asked them to pick all the Jade Dragon Grass before, and they thought it had other uses, so they didn't ask.
潘姓青年似想到什么，冷笑一声：“灵穴的事，我们知道就够了，没必要跟其他人‘分享’。”
两人的呼吸顿时火热起来，这个大家显然是其他宗门势力。
确实，如果叫其他势力的人发现那些灵草，肯定也能联想到灵穴上面，知道的人越多，争夺的人就越多。
“还是潘师兄有先见之明。”
两位师弟接连拍了一阵马屁。
……
高寒把那株玉龙草采摘后，按照他的猜测，这附近应该还有其他玉龙草才对。
玉龙草不会随意乱长，虽然不会成片生长，但也不会太过分散。
他找了一会，却没有发现第二株玉龙草。
钟离庭洲从空中跳下来，“不用找了，附近的玉龙草，已经有人抢先一步拔光了。”
玉龙草被挖走后，地面会留下一个小坑，对方没有掩饰，现在这种情况，也没必要掩饰，留下一个坑，谁知道坑里原先是什么东西。
高寒拿着那株玉龙草，“这种灵草不是晶目鼬的主食谱，恐怕很难将它引出来。”
“这么说来，这东西没什么用了？”钟离庭洲挑眉道，“你拿着这东西，妖兽也不会来，干脆扔了算了。”
说罢就从他手上拿过那株玉龙草，往身后一扔。
高寒扬起手就想打他，走过去捡起玉龙草，“你怎么就知道没有用，万一……”
“万一什么？”钟离庭洲听他说到一半就没说了。
“万一走了狗屎运呢。”高寒侧开身体。
一头晶莹剔透的妖兽，个头只有富贵两倍大，两只爪子抱着被他扔掉的那株玉龙草，刚啃了一口。
“还真是狗屎运。”钟离庭洲无语地说道，他也没想到，自己随手一扔，居然就引出晶目鼬。
见人类已经发现它，晶目鼬吓得拔腿就跑。
只是就算它有金丹修为，实际上根本发挥不出真正的金丹战力，没一会就被两人俘虏了，可怜兮兮的看着两个人类。
它就是饿极了，出来找下吃的，怎么会这么倒霉，偏偏遇到两个人类修士。
抓都被抓了，晶目鼬决定先填饱肚子再说，三两下就把玉龙草啃光了。
“看来也不全是狗屎运。”高寒看到晶目鼬的样子，大概明白好运为什么会降临在他们身上了。
钟离庭洲看向他。
“这头晶目鼬应该是出来找食物，结果附近的玉龙草都被人拔光了。”
拔光玉龙草的人要是知道因为这样，珍贵的晶目鼬就主动找上门来，不知会作何感想。
“既然已经找到晶目鼬，就不用再去找那种灵药了。”
钟离庭洲盯着这头晶目鼬，“它看起来像个蠢得要命的傻子，能带我们去找灵穴吗？”
“试一试吧。”高寒从弥生戒里掏出一块灵石，递给晶目鼬，“带我们去找灵穴，这块灵石就是你的。”
晶目鼬看到灵石，眼睛一亮，但很快又假装镇定下去。
“我怎么觉得这鬼灵精的样子跟你儿子有点像？”钟离庭洲看向高寒说。
高寒对付富贵已经有经验，又淡定的取出两块上品灵石，“最多三块，再多就把你宰了烤肉。”
晶目鼬顿时露出委屈的表情，就这么三小块，就威胁要宰了它，人类真小气。
可是，它的眼睛又不由自主的转溜起来。
如果这两个人类能把占领它的窝的家伙赶走，它就不亏了。
晶目鼬立刻点头表示同意了，然后就抢过三颗上品灵石，一株玉龙草根本吃不饱。
高寒等它吃完，就让它在前面带路。
与此同时。
“师兄，我们在这儿已经守了这么久，晶目鼬怎么还没出现？”
他们把几株玉龙草放在明显的地方，想引诱晶目鼬出来，结果等了半天，愣是没发现晶目鼬的影子。
潘姓青年皱紧五官，“难道说，晶目鼬有其他食谱了，对玉龙草不稀罕了？最终还是只能用那个东西了。”
“什么东西？”一名师弟赶紧问。
“百年玉髓，是晶目鼬最喜欢吃的东西。”
“哇师兄，你连百年玉髓都有啊。”
潘姓青年平静道：“师叔只给我几滴，要是这还引不出晶目鼬，事情就难办了。”
潘姓青年随即取出一个玉瓶，透明玉瓶里，装着三滴数百年的玉髓。
所幸百年玉髓没叫他们失望，打开不到半个时辰，一头体积更大的晶目鼬就被百年玉髓的味道吸引过来了。
被抓住的晶目鼬被强行结了奴契，不得不听从他们的命令行事，很快就将他们带到目的地。
被云雾笼罩，如同另一个世界，一跨入此地界，空气中的灵气浓度瞬间涨了一倍不止。
“找到了，我们找到了！”两位器星谷的弟子满脸兴奋地喊出来。
潘姓青年脸上也终于露出一丝喜色，总算没有白费师叔给的百年灵髓，这东西珍贵至极，是炼丹极好的材料，如果浪费了，还没有收获，出去后他也不好交代。
“灵气这般浓，都快雾化了，里面一定有灵穴。”
四周淡淡的雾气，其实就是雾化的灵气。
能达到这种程度，说明里面的灵穴不算小，也没有被任何人取过。
三人立刻踏入雾中，这点程度的雾气，对修士来说，如同无物，并不能阻碍他们半分。
循着雾化灵气最明显的方向走，一刻钟后，前面出现一面潭水。
水面泛着白色的仙气，如同烟云缭绕，人间仙境。
水潭不大，长宽皆不到两米，水面很平静。
三个器星谷的弟子顿时屏住呼吸，“找、找到了，我们终于找到灵穴了，这么大的灵潭，这条灵穴肯定超过五千年。”
“双洞秘境消失在妖魔战场上都有几万年了，灵穴超过五千年不足为奇。”潘姓青年眼里泛着火热的光。
“快，趁没人发现，我们把灵潭的灵液取了。”两个师弟迫不及待地冲过去了，还有人拿出一个壶，准备装点灵液。
“等等。”潘姓青年赶紧叫住他们，但迟了一步。
一名师弟拿着壶的手刚伸到灵潭上，头顶突然传来一声怒吼。
一头金丹大圆满的妖兽从空中跳下来，震得地面颤动不已，这头妖兽愤怒不已，居然有人类敢来偷它的灵液，不可饶恕。
愤怒的妖兽一尾巴甩过去，迅雷不及掩耳，那名拿壶的弟子没躲过，瞬间被打成重伤。
剩下两人也都慌了，这里居然有一头金丹大圆满的妖兽守着，他们之中最厉害的潘师兄，也才金丹后期。
“居然是金甲兽。”潘姓青年脸色微白。
他想了很多可能，唯独没想到可能是金甲兽。
战力强大的金甲兽，同阶可以说几乎无敌，难怪能守住这块灵穴，不被其他强大的妖兽抢去。
高寒和钟离庭洲赶到，看到器星谷三个人被金甲兽打得节节败退的画面。
“居然还有人比我们更快发现。”钟离庭洲打趣地说道，“不过落败只是迟早的事。”
“那个金丹后期的青年，可能有杀手锏。”
钟离庭洲没说什么，眼睛里却闪烁着不知名的光芒。
“拼了！”潘姓青年已然受伤，眼见他们居然要死在金甲兽手里，眼里涌出浓浓的不甘。
花了三滴百年灵髓，好不容易找到灵穴，怎么能还没碰到灵穴，就死在这头畜生手里。
金甲兽气势汹汹，潘姓青年立即命令晶目鼬抵挡。
晶目鼬不愿意，它不是金甲兽的对手。
它虽然是灵穴附近的伴生兽，但后来金甲兽出现，抢了它的地盘，它打不过才逃跑的。
让它去抵挡金甲兽，无异于送死，横竖都是死，晶目鼬更不愿意出手。
“不愿意，那就去死吧。”潘姓青年恼怒。
这该死的晶目鼬，命都掌握在他手里，居然还敢反抗他，迅速来到这头晶目鼬身上，拎起就朝金甲兽扔过去，同时心念一动，晶目鼬瞬间爆了。
晶目鼬的自爆没能伤到金甲兽，但却有效的阻挡了它的动作。
潘姓青年身前出现一柄金色的小剑，他肉疼的看着这柄剑，本想留到后面再用，没想到一进来，居然要用在这头畜生身上。
金甲兽瞬间感应到一股巨大的威胁，两颗巨大的眼珠子瞥见他面前的金色小剑，立刻转身就跑。
“现在想走，迟了！”潘姓青年带着满腔怒火，早不跑晚不跑。
金色小剑瞬间化为一道金光，朝金甲兽疾射而去，金甲兽刚升起一道防御，金色小剑就穿透它的脑袋。
空中的金甲兽身体僵硬了一瞬，随即从空中跌落，砸在灵潭旁边。
潘姓青年身上的气息肉眼可见的萎靡下去。
“哈哈哈哈。”一道长笑声突然自他们身后传来。
潘姓青年还没来得及松一口气，享受战利品，脸色瞬间就变了，立刻往声音传来的方向看去。
当他看到出现了一群妖魔时，脸色除了铁青难看，瞳孔深处还有一丝恐惧。
There were four demons coming forward, and the one with the highest cultivation level was about the same as his. However, one of them was dead, one was seriously injured, and he was the only one left. The sword he had just struck had almost exhausted all of his spiritual power, and now he didn't have much ability to fight again.
"Thank you for helping us deal with this golden beast. Otherwise, it would have taken us a lot of effort to deal with it."
The young demon in the late stage of leadership smiled triumphantly. The feeling of reaping the benefits while being a fisherman was really wonderful.
The three young demons beside him also laughed knowingly, and their laughter frightened the seriously injured young disciple of Qixing Valley.
"To thank you, I can let you die more quickly." The leading young demon laughed.
"Are you going to go against Qixing Valley?" The young man named Pan said coldly, hiding his panic.
"Weapon Star Valley?" The young demon was stunned for a moment, then showed a surprised expression, "You are from the Weapon Star Valley? So you have a lot of weapons?"
Naturally, these demons had heard of the name of Qixing Valley.
But what they knew about Qixing Valley was that the disciples of Qixing Valley could refine a large number of weapons. For them, if they killed the disciples of Qixing Valley, they could obtain a large number of weapons.
The young man surnamed Pan saw that the four demons were not intimidated by the reputation of Qixing Valley, but stared at him with even more fiery eyes, and finally a trace of panic appeared on his face.
"What do you mean? Aren't you afraid that Qixinggu will seek revenge on you?"
“Qixing Valley is nothing but shit. I’m not afraid even if the sword cultivators from Zixiao Sect are here.” The young demon was extremely arrogant.
In the dark, the two sword cultivators and knife cultivators from Zixiao Sect raised their eyebrows at the same time, what an arrogant demon.
The young man surnamed Pan took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, "Let's go!"
After shouting, his figure shot out like a flash of lightning. He was not going to fight the monsters head-on, but to run away in the opposite direction.
What he didn't know was that these demons were well prepared, and they moved almost at the same time he did.
The seriously injured disciple of Qixing Valley had almost no ability to resist and was killed by the demon.
The young man surnamed Pan was caught up and entangled by a young demon in the late stage of leadership. By the time the other three arrived, he was already trapped in a jar.
