Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 270 Clues

After walking all the way west for less than a day, suddenly the wind stopped and the rain stopped, and the aura of heaven and earth gradually returned to stability.

Zuo Lingquan stopped at the top of the mountain and looked up at the sky - the thick dark clouds were blown away by the wind, revealing the familiar starry sky and full moon. A stream of hot air also pressed in from the distance, turning the original cold rainy night into It was a sultry summer night.

Judging from the vastness of the star sea, Qilin Grotto-Heaven has completely collapsed, and the Integrated Union is part of Jade Yaozhou.

Zuo Lingquan couldn't tell where he was at this time, and he didn't know how far away he was from Qingwan. He stopped, turned around and asked:

"The world seems to have stabilized. Should we continue walking or should we go back first?"

Xie Qiutao got a precious dragon turtle and made a lot of money from this trip. Regarding the great opportunity deep underground, he held the attitude of "it's the best if you don't have it" and said:

"Look at you. Someone has already reached the cave first. After a few days, the chance that the baby is still there is slim. But it's best to go and take a look, so as not to miss the opportunity and regret it later."

Shangguan Lingye and Zuo Lingquan went out to hunt for treasure this time. They agreed to find the fairy sword, and the result was great. Zuo Lingquan lost the sword, and she lost herself, but they didn't get anything. They paid the real price to Mrs. Another defeat.

Shangguan Lingye is more diligent and thrifty than Xie Qiutao. In the past, he acted like a wild goose, even eating dumplings. He has never suffered such a blood loss; especially that hole is related to the Central Continent Kirin. If he misses it this time, It would be common for them not to meet each other in the next few decades, so she responded:

"The world has stabilized. A large wave of monks will come in soon. If we go back now and come back later, I'm afraid there will be nothing left. Let's try our luck first."

While talking, Shangguan Lingye took out a heat dispelling talisman and threw it more than ten feet away.

The talisman shimmered and exuded an icy air, but there was nothing else out of the ordinary.

After confirming that the talisman was triggered normally and did not cause any changes, Shangguan Lingye floated in the wind, and the dress stained with dust suddenly looked brand new.

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan and Xie Qiutao no longer suppressed the flow of True Qi in their bodies, and at the same time Yuqi floated beside them.

Zuo Lingquan took out the Tiandun card and tried to contact Qingwan. It's a pity that after leaving the Nine Sects, the Heavenly Escape Tower no longer has blind spots. The Heavenly Escape Card can travel a few miles at most, but the loud roar can't travel far, so it can't be contacted at all.

Although Shangguan Lingye was a high-minded person, he could not sense the situation thousands of miles away. She knew that Zuo Lingquan was worried about Qingwan who was waiting alone, so she said:

"There is a protective formation on the boat, and Qingwan's situation is much safer than ours; if the people in Qilin Cave don't leave, there may be a fight later, so please be careful with yourself."

Private ferries are custom-made by Yan Yuelin at an exorbitant price, so they will naturally have basic life-saving functions. Although the defense is not impenetrable, monks who are capable of destroying ferries should not be at odds with Qingwan.

Zuo Lingquan was not worried about Qingwan's safety, he was just worried that Qingwan would be impatient and wanted to report that she was safe as soon as possible.

However, what Ling Ye said makes sense. If we don't take advantage of the opportunity to find the treasures of heaven and earth, and come back later, I'm afraid this place will be overcrowded.

Since they decided to continue hunting for treasures, they naturally had to go as fast as possible. The three of them said no more and flew directly into the wind towards the Qilin Cave discovered by Xie Qiutao.

When you can't use your Divine Ability, you can only run with your legs when climbing over mountains and ridges. You can't move too much for fear of being discovered. Once you can control the air, your speed will be completely different.

Originally there was still a day's journey from Qilin Cave, so the three of them walked against the wind, and within two quarters of an hour, they found the stone platform located in the mountains.

Looking through the moonlight, the stone platform was built against the mountain peak, surrounded by scattered collapsed buildings, covered by vegetation and vines, and no trace of human activity could be seen.

After Shangguan Lingye flew nearby, he landed on the ground and collected his breath to avoid disturbing the situation.

The three of them kept a proper distance, carefully came to the stone platform, entered through the huge hole, and headed underground.

Although the distance to the deepest point underground was only more than two miles, the three of them checked formations or traps along the way, and it took them half a day to reach the deepest lair.

What made people relieved was that they didn't encounter any accidents along the way, and there were no ambushes in the deepest part of the nest; but what was disappointing was that, as Xie Qiutao said, there was indeed no hair left in the Qilin Cave.

Zuo Lingquan stood in the huge underground lair. He could see that the cave walls were as hard as iron, and he didn’t know what material they were made of. There was a large platform in the middle, where the giant horned deer should have been lying. The entire lair was very clean, without any debris. .

When Xie Qiutao saw this scene of "the family is surrounded by walls", her expectant little face was filled with regret:

"Sure enough, they were all taken away, and they are cleaner than my pockets."

The three of them were not very willing. Although they could not see any objects, they still searched around the lair to see if they could find any hidden treasures. Xie Qiutao even took out the little dragon turtle he had just received, took it away and sniffed it everywhere.

No one is better at finding treasures than Tuanzi. Tuanzi jumped around in the empty nest by himself, and finally landed in a corner of the stone wall, pointing to the ground with his wings:

"Jiji!"

Zuo Lingquan hurriedly came forward and squatted down to check the ground. He saw a sword hole on the ground and some sawdust-like powder next to it. It seemed that someone had inserted a sword here not long ago.

Xie Qiutao was the most attentive. He squatted next to him and looked at the powder carefully. He even dipped his hand into it and smelled it:

"It smells so good, just like the smell in the cave. I heard the sound of sawing something two days ago, and I must be sawing this thing. But why do you want to saw it here? Is it too big to fit in Linglong Pavilion?"

Shangguan Lingye naturally didn't know the reason. She checked for a moment, not daring to taste it, and couldn't tell what the object was. She was about to borrow Xie Qiutao's little dragon turtle to try the poison, but found that Zuo Lingquan beside her did not pay attention to the powder, but Looking at the sword holes on the ground, his eyes were a little shocked and confused.

"What's wrong?"

"Didn't you notice that this sword hole looks familiar?"

"Um?"

Shangguan Lingye and Xie Qiutao then turned their attention to the sword hole, and were startled when they saw it.

The shapes of the swords are similar, but there are also subtle differences, such as eight sides, six sides, four sides, length, width and thickness, etc.

The mainstream of contemporary sword casting is to focus on the lightness of the four-sided sword; the traces of the sword hole are six-sided swords, and the most important thing is that they are exactly the same as the sword holes they saw in the catacombs outside the sand sea.

When Zuo Lingquan and Lin Zifeng were fighting, they borrowed the sword of an unknown master. Now, in retrospect, it was also a six-sided sword. If it was inserted into the ground, the sword hole would be the same.

Although the six-sided sword was not considered rare, the two sword marks were indistinguishable and they were seen one after another. It would be too far-fetched to call it a coincidence.

Xie Qiutao remembered the shape of the sword hole in the cave and said doubtfully:

"Could it be that the person who found the opportunity in the sea of ​​sand came here and picked up the good things again? What kind of luck is this? He is one step ahead of us every time."

Zuo Lingquan's expression was serious: "That's a fairy sword. This man looks like he's not just lucky."

"Immortal sword?"

"Well, I used it once, and it was very powerful..."

Shangguan Lingye pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Looking at the time, it took no more than a month for that person to take the fairy sword from the ground. The fairy weapon is too powerful, and some have side effects, such as swallowing blood essence to shorten lifespan and affect the mind. Crazy and so on.

"Even if my master got an immortal weapon, he would have to study it at home for a year or so before he dared to use it. This person took away the immortal sword only ten days ago, and then came the unicorn Grotto-Heaven , and dared to lend you the sword casually, his behavior was too abnormal."

Zuo Lingquan thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense. If he had just obtained a fairy sword, he would not easily take it out in front of outsiders, even if he wanted to lend it to others.

The principle of "don't leak money" is also practiced in the practice of Taoism. Just finding a big opportunity to show off is no different from courting death. Normal people would not do this kind of thing.

"That kind of doesn't make sense."

"yes."

Shangguan Lingye felt that this matter was extremely strange, and it was absolutely impossible for the other party to just get the fairy sword; but she did see the sword being taken away not long ago, and the original owner had already become a dead bone...

Dry bones...

Shangguan Lingye's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a possibility:

"In the past, there was a monk who found a secret treasure by chance and wanted to refine it, but his body was taken away by the monk's remnant soul living in it. This makes sense..."

There will be another chapter later. I didn’t sleep well last night and I can’t concentrate, so I’m writing very slowly...
