Qingyunxian

Chapter 256: Fist-Marked Tiankeng
Normally, Yan would go to the private school in Yuncheng to teach this ability to other barbarians.

"Don't feel pressured. It doesn't matter if you can't find it." Tang was not too demanding.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and everything became quiet the moment they got down to the ground.

There are many dangers in the mountains and wilderness, and they often travel there, so they naturally would not make such mistakes.

Walking quietly in the mountains, even Tao became much more restrained.

This place is sparsely populated, and there are few paths to move forward. Everyone can only push aside the bushes and weeds to avoid making too much noise.

According to the rock, mineral veins are mostly found in the direction of the mountain, even if it is a small mound.

The focus this time is to find the evil spirit, and everything else becomes secondary.

Yan walked and stopped, constantly looking at the low bushes beside him, sometimes squatting down to look at the soil, and then led everyone forward.

Others were alert to their surroundings in case of any sudden attacks by dangerous creatures.

Further away, there were some strange beasts trying to figure out if there was any danger for them.

Soon, they came to a place where the bushes were gradually becoming sparse.

Yan paused and shook his head.

A low earth slope appeared in the sight of the people behind. There was no grass around it, and even few scattered stones. There were only a large number of white compacted objects.

Unexpectedly, I found a salt mine while searching for minerals.

No wonder Yan shook his head.

Although the salt mine is also needed by Yuncheng, it is obvious that there is no evil spirit here, so they have to look for another place.

But it was impossible to give up this salt mine. Tao Niezhi blew a whistle, and immediately a large number of strange beasts rushed over.

This salt mine exposed on the surface was left to the strange beasts to mine.

"Come again!" Yan started to compete.

Yan changed direction to avoid the interference of salt mines on the soil, and this time focused on the condition of the leaves on the trees.

If you are close to a mineral vein, the leaves will reflect some of the situation.

This time it took half a day, and Yan once again found a place where a mineral vein might exist.

Everyone gathered around a collapsed sinkhole and talked to each other.

The deer squatted down and threw a stone into the sinkhole. Then he listened carefully. When he heard the sound of the stone hitting the bottom of the sinkhole, he couldn't help but frowned.

He stood up and said carefully, "It's too deep here. It might be dangerous if we go down rashly. Let the strange beast try it first."

There were some strange flying beasts traveling with them, and the deer called a few of them and let them fly in to see if there was any danger.

This way, at least you can determine whether there are any aggressive creatures that are actively attacking.

A few breaths after the bird flew down, a mournful cry was suddenly heard.

Everyone's heart tightened. Is there danger below?
Then the birds were seen flying out.

Everyone looked carefully and found that there was still one beast, but one of them had some flesh and blood wiped off its abdomen by something. They thought that this was the reason for the wailing they heard just now.

The deer's order was to keep flying down. The strange beasts created by Liu Xun could obey the order very well and would keep moving forward even if they encountered danger.

"This is..." Tang saw the flesh and blood missing from the bird's abdomen, his eyes narrowed slightly, "It should have been corroded by some evil spirit!"

These birds are just exotic beasts that the Immortal Lord has just cultivated. They are no different from ordinary birds. If they encounter stronger evil spirits, such results will indeed occur.

There is indeed evil energy beneath the tiankeng!
Now they don’t care about the mineral veins, their target is the evil spirit.

Even ordinary miasma is poisonous. I don't know what kind of evil energy is in this that can corrode flesh and blood. It must not be ordinary evil energy. If we continue like this, it will be very dangerous if we accidentally get contaminated by the evil energy.

They must first come up with a foolproof solution.

Lu and Tang discussed for a while, then asked the rest of the citizens to come forward, tie the ropes that had been prepared long ago around their waists, and prepare to lower the people down one by one.

It is too dark in the sinkhole to see anything, but the citizens have a way.

Several moon jade lamps tied around the waist were tied to ropes and gently lowered along the edge of the sinkhole.

When it came, the Moon Jade Lamp absorbed a lot of sunlight, and it can slowly release the sunlight in the dark tiankeng.

With the help of the moonlight lamp, we can barely see the things in the tiankeng. The lighting problem is solved, but we still need to be careful of the poisonous insects in the tiankeng.

This kind of environment is most likely to breed poisonous insects. Even with the perfect body tempering cultivation, I dare not ignore it, so it is better to be careful.

There were no villagers in Yuncheng who were familiar with medicine, so they could not make some anti-snake and ant powder for use in the mountains.

Lu and the others could only resort to a stupid method, which was to let the huge beasts that could swim over the wall go down first and scare away the poisonous insects hiding in the mosses.

They followed closely behind, and, pulled by the people above, slowly descended to the bottom of the tiankeng.

Under the illumination of the Moon Jade Lamp, the people who went down clearly saw all kinds of gray evil spirits gathering at the bottom of the tiankeng, so thick that they were about to turn into liquid.

This kind of evil spirit does not belong to any of the cognizable types, but its quality should be not low.

"Isn't it the evil spirit of earth and rocks?" the deer asked in confusion.

He grasped the rope around his waist with one hand and turned his head to look at the evil spirit at the bottom of the sky.

If it is not the evil spirits from the earth and rocks, why would they exist in this kind of tiankeng?

And it seems to have nothing to do with the miasma.

Tang said in a loud voice that echoed in the tiankeng: "Who cares? As long as it works!"

"If you are worried that it does not meet the Immortal Lord's expectations, you can ask the Immortal Lord to take a look." Tang thought of Liu Xun's request and added a sentence.

The deer nodded. The evil spirit was here and couldn't be escaped. It would be better to ask the Immortal Lord first.

Otherwise it would be just an ordinary evil spirit, wasting your own potential.

Just as they were about to leave, Tao, who had been silent since he came in, suddenly grabbed the rope and said in surprise: "Look, does the ground look like a fist mark?"

"Haha, how could the fist mark be so big!" Tang laughed loudly.

Tao shook his head: "No, if you look closely, you can still see a general outline."

"Look at that evil spirit. It's not a whole mass, but different heights and densities. Look carefully, are there a few neat gullies and raised ridges?"

Tao said, pointing to the bottom of the sinkhole.

After listening to Tao's serious talk, Tang and Lu looked at the evil spirit at the bottom at the same time.

Within the range illuminated by the Moon Jade Lamp, it was just as Tao had said, with the evil spirit rolling around and clearly taking on the shape of a field ridge.

If you zoom in and look at the entire bottom of the tiankeng, it really looks like a fist print.

Is it a work of nature, or was it really the result of a person's fist mark?
If it's the latter, well, that would be terrifying!

Even a martial artist with a divine power cannot create such a huge punch. What kind of being could have created this?

And judging from the appearance of the sinkhole, it is obvious that it has been there for a long time, which means that the fist mark has been there for a long time.

The soil conditions are constantly changing, and unnatural holes can be quickly filled, but this sinkhole continues to exist, which shows how powerful this punch is.

Without daring to think too much, they decided to tell the Immortal Lord about the situation here.

When Liu Xun heard Tao and others' description of the tiankeng, he immediately looked puzzled.

What strange things did they find this time?

Liu Xun actually went there in person.

In front of the sinkhole, Liu Xun looked at the situation inside the huge pit, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

This tiankeng was actually formed by a fist mark!
Moreover, the one who created this fist-mark crater was not a civilian warrior on earth, but a powerful celestial being, or more precisely, a powerful cloud immortal.

Under the rolling murderous aura, the remaining power and rhythm in the fist mark that could not be erased by time could not be hidden from Liu Xun.

Judging from the condition of the tiankeng, the fist mark must have been formed a long time ago.

Perhaps it was left over from recent ancient times, or perhaps even earlier.

The earlier this fist mark appears, the more it proves that Yun Xian, who threw this punch, is very strong, otherwise he would not have left a fist mark that even time cannot erase.

Liu Xun couldn't help but marvel at what kind of existence could have created such a fist mark the size of a crater!
