"There is actually such a precious place in this mountain range. If I could come here to practice every day..."
This thought flashed through Anle's mind, but he immediately dismissed it.
Although the land is beautiful, the dangers can also be imagined.
With Anle's luck, he would probably die miserably.
The passage of the cave was very narrow at first, barely enough for Ye Ling'er to pass through. Anle had no choice but to follow her, feeling a strong sense of security.
The ground, the top of the head, and the surrounding walls are all different from ordinary rocks.
It is clearly a dead thing, yet it seems to be filled with vigorous vitality.
I didn't walk for a few minutes.
The cave suddenly became bright, and a fairly empty hole appeared before the two.
The rock wall above is at least twenty meters high, and there are things that look like stalactites hanging from above, showing red and white colors.
There should be no light here, but the stalactites are emitting a faint fluorescence, making the entire cave glow, giving it a dreamy beauty.
That kind of rich, fresh spiritual energy emanates from all the rock walls.
An Le was surprised: "Is this a spiritual vein?"
Ye Ling'er saw through his guess, shook her head and said, "It's not a spiritual vein, but it's a bit similar."
"Anyway, no matter what, let's eat!"
As she said this, saliva was almost flowing out of the corners of her mouth, and her eyes were fixed on a direction not far away.
Tick-tick-tick-
The sticky stalactites drip from the tops of the stalactites and gather in naturally formed grooves, accumulating into a small pool.
Just as Ye Ling'er was about to rush over to feast on the food, Anle's brows gradually furrowed, and an ominous premonition spread from the bottom of his heart.
He turned his head and looked at the place that was not illuminated by the fluorescent light.
Something is coming!
******
"Hooah...hooah..."
In the narrow and cramped cave, there were three monks, two men and one woman, fleeing in panic.
Their faces were pale, cold sweat could not stop pouring down, and they looked back at the shadow behind them from time to time.
"What the hell! What the hell is that?"
The male cultivator named cursed under his breath.
They are all disciples of Taixu Palace and belong to Lingzi Hall, a department specifically responsible for exploring spiritual veins and discovering new resources.
A super-large organization like Taixu Palace certainly has an extremely rich foundation, but its consumption is also huge.
The monthly offerings to the elders and the benefits given to the disciples alone are a huge sum.
Especially during the current war, the demand for spirit stones is unprecedentedly great, so the Spirit Resources Hall has been issuing tasks to its monks. Anyone who discovers and confirms a spirit vein will receive a generous reward.
That's why the group came here.
However, they never expected that before the location of the spiritual vein was determined, they encountered an extremely strange existence, which resulted in heavy casualties in an instant. The original team of about ten people now has only three of them left.
Female cultivator Cheng Yuemei looked sad, tears flashing in her eyes: "Brother Zhang, he, they... all..."
There were many close friends of hers among the dead, and she couldn't help feeling sad.
"Alas, we can hardly protect ourselves."
Jiang Junliang sighed, despair gradually rising in his heart.
The sound of footsteps did not disappear even after the three people escaped. It followed them like a death warrant.
And, getting closer!
All three of them were Golden Cores, but most of the spiritual energy reserves in their bodies had been consumed in the previous escapes and battles, and they were gradually becoming exhausted.
Roar!
After a strange roar, a dark shadow blocked the three people.
Seeing it coming, their hearts trembled again.
This creature has an ugly and strange appearance. It has no hair on its body and crawls on all fours. It is scarlet in color. There is not a single bit of flesh on its body, only a skeleton that looks like bones or rocks. Countless bone spurs extend from its back and elbows, flashing cold light.
The shape is slightly similar to that of a dog.
In the front part of the skeleton, there are several eye-shaped crystals flashing, acting as sensory organs.
The strange appearance is just one point; its entire body exudes an aura of both death and life.
He was clearly full of spiritual power and had vitality of qi and blood, but he looked as if he had been dead for a long time.
It doesn't look like a living thing, and has nothing to do with evil.
"Damn beast!"
The remaining male cultivator roared, and his ferocious fire magic fell on the monster, but did not cause any damage.
The flames made of spiritual power were gently absorbed by it and merged into its bones, becoming its source of power.
The monster's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye it pounced on the male cultivator, and then began to bite him.
In fact, it does not have the ability to eat, it is just acting on some instinct.
Jiang Junliang and Cheng Yuemei looked at the male cultivator sadly, then turned around and continued to run away.
In the darkness, more footsteps were heard.
There are far more than one such monster.
They didn't know how long they had been running, but both of them were exhausted, with almost no physical and spiritual power left.
But the footsteps behind him gradually became more restless.
The evil wind seemed to be just around the corner.
Jiang Junliang thought desperately: 'It seems that this time, I will really die here.'
'It's a pity that I haven't made those who bullied me pay the price.'
Just then, the two of them turned a corner.
A dreamy fluorescent light came into their sight.
"This...is this?"
Cheng Yuemei's eyes suddenly widened, staring blankly at the scene in front of her.
In the empty cave, there was a huge mountain of flesh that barely looked like a human, with its head buried in a pool of water and sipping, as if it was fully aware of the crisis in the outside world.
Several terrifying bone dogs quietly emerged from the ground and pounced on her body.
The two of them couldn't help but sweat.
However, with a "bang", the fat piled up on the mountain of meat shook slightly, and it was completely unharmed.
But those bone dogs were instantly shattered into pieces.
It then gathered into a ball under the invisible force, half of it merged into the sticky stalactite, and the other half was sent to the young man beside her. The Meat Mountain said vaguely.
"Little Junior Brother, don't despise it, this is a very tonic."
"Ordinary people can't even eat it if they want to!"
The man replied, "No need to do anything, Senior Sister. Leave the rest to me."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and a terrifying surge of energy and blood rushed towards Cheng Yuemei and the other person.
A huge sun seemed to appear in their eyes, releasing endless light and heat.
The two of them didn't even have time to react before they were stunned by the overwhelming power.
When he regained consciousness, Jiang Junliang found that he was unharmed.
"Wait, could it be that..."
Jiang Junliang swallowed, turned his head slowly, his eyes full of disbelief.
He saw that the dozen or so bone dogs that had followed them were all torn apart by this palm and turned into crystal fragments on the ground.
Chapter 171 Taotie
"Huh? Where are you two from?"
After a while, Ye Ling'er, who was drinking the stone emulsion, wiped her mouth and turned to look at Jiang Junliang and the other man who had mistakenly entered this place. A terrifying light flashed in her small black pearl-like eyes.
One of the things she hated most was being disturbed while eating.
Cheng Yuemei's whole body trembled, as if she was being stared at by a ferocious monster, and she felt an instinctive fear.
Thinking of Ye Ling'er's previous performance, Cheng Yuemei did not dare to hide anything and immediately told her their identities, purposes, and experiences in detail.
"I see."
After hearing these words, Ye Ling'er nodded, and the terrifying aura on her body disappeared, and in an instant she returned to her usual harmless appearance.
"Since we are all disciples of Taixu Palace, we should naturally help each other."
"Just wait for a while. When my junior brother and I are full, we will take you back."
After saying that, Ye Ling'er continued to lower her head and sip the stone milk in small sips, as if she was tasting some rare delicacy.
Jiang Junliang and the other man slowly calmed down and were no longer so scared.
After all, judging from its appearance alone, the huge mountain of flesh in front of him was not much better than the bone dog before, and its aura was even more terrifying than that of ordinary monsters.
However, after a brief exchange of words, they found that the other person looked a little scary, but his voice was gentle and pleasant, and his attitude was friendly, and he didn't look like a bad person.
"Your Excellency should be An Le, Fellow Daoist An, right?"
Jiang Junliang hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but bow and ask.
Anle was quite curious: "Do you recognize me?"
Jiang Junliang responded: "I am also a member of the Jiang family, so I have heard of the name of An Daoyou."
Ye Ling'er's features were too obvious, and coupled with An Le's unparalleled handsome appearance, he was able to quickly recognize the other person's identity.
Jiang Junliang's attitude was very respectful, which was not at all like the attitude a Jindan should have towards foundation building, and was different from those of ordinary disciples from aristocratic families.
Even without Ye Ling'er's presence, the power displayed by An Le when he just attacked had already made Jiang Junliang secretly frightened.
'He is still in the foundation building stage, but his moves are comparable to those of a golden elixir.'
"This person... is indeed a genius!"
'You can only make friends, not offend.'
Jiang Junliang knew very well that the gap between realms often seemed to be just a step away, but in fact it was a world of difference. Those who could fight across borders were all true geniuses.
"Among the disciples of the noble families, there are still some smart people."
An Le thought to himself, he looked up and down at Jiang Junliang's current appearance, and found that he looked embarrassed, the robe and magic weapon on his body were ordinary, not high-end items, and there was no follower following him.
Although it is also possible that he was killed by the bone dog that the senior sister just called a "corpse demon", the more likely possibility is that Jiang Jun has no slaves at all.
"His position in the Jiang family should not be very high, otherwise he would not personally participate in this kind of mission."
After analyzing the other party's identity, Anle soon stopped taking it to heart and found a small pool filled with stone milk spiritual liquid. He first swallowed the shattered remains of the corpse monsters into his mouth, then drank a small sip of the spiritual liquid and swallowed it down.
This scene made Cheng Yuemei and the others dumbfounded: "That thing, can it really be eaten?"
Anle was completely unaware of their reaction.
He was a little skeptical at first, but since the senior sister said it was edible, then it must be edible!
Anle savored the feeling in his mouth carefully. The corpse that was shattered into pieces actually tasted quite good. It was a bit like a crispy old-fashioned biscuit, and a bit like tiny cubes of candy.
“It’s actually sweet?”
As soon as it enters your mouth, the sweet taste spreads quietly from your mouth.
The stone milk liquid is even more magical. It melts the moment it slides into the lips, and the extremely rich and delicious taste is like a bomb exploding.
