In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

Under the thousand-foot peak, there is a small hole at the bottom.

The silver threads in the cave are densely packed, reflecting thousands of silver lights.

Suddenly, a faint blood-red light from deep inside the cave flew towards the exit under the crazy attack of the silver thread.

Every time it was attacked by the silver thread, the light thread dimmed a little. By the time it stumbled to the exit, the light thread was almost transparent.

Seeing that the exit was just around the corner, the light filament trembled, the blood redness on it suddenly rose a few points, and he escaped from the cave in a flash.

After walking more than a hundred feet through the blood, the blood on the silk thread disappeared. In a flash of light, it turned into a five-foot-long silver flying carpet, with a person sitting cross-legged on it, it was the Taichu old ghost who had escaped from death.

"Finally escaped, the guy named Lu is really ruthless!" The old ghost from Taichu had a look on his face of surviving the disaster.

At this time, his body looked like a withered body, his face was gray, his eyes were lifeless, and he looked like he was seriously injured.

"This should be the Lingmiao Garden. We must search for some elixirs as soon as possible to restore the lost vitality!" The Taichu old ghost calmed down a little and quickly looked around at this strange place. a face

Not long after, the face of Taichu Old Ghost was covered with a layer of gloom.

This is a space with no other colors except gray. Looking up, there are low piles of black rocks everywhere, about dozens of feet high. There are occasionally a few short mountains of more than a hundred feet, scattered and scattered.

In addition to the gray mist that can be seen everywhere, there is still some spiritual energy in it. It's just that it's very weak, and extremely chaotic, with a lot of strange things mixed in.

Not to mention the elixir of heaven and earth, even the monks meditating and recovering are not enough.

The Taichu old ghost didn't give up. He scanned it with his spiritual consciousness and found that it was more than ten miles wide.

But soon he seemed to have discovered something, his face lit up with joy, and he drove Yin Ling to fly in a certain direction.

After a while, the silver light at the entrance of the cave suddenly dimmed, and a passage appeared in the continuous twisting of the silver wire. There was a flash of golden light, and three figures flew out.

"Where is this place?" Lu Yuan looked around and found no trace of the old ghost from Taichu.

"Looking at it, could it be the ruins of the famous Lingmiao Garden in ancient times? I heard back then that in the Fallen Demon Valley, some monks with great supernatural powers in ancient times used treasures to create a small space with spiritual energy far superior to the human world. The medicine garden specializes in cultivating various elixirs." Brother Tiezi flew out from behind the central giant tree flag, and the speculations of Lord Dayan came from inside.

"Lingmiao Garden?" Brother Tiezi was startled and scratched his head.

"If it really is Lingmiao Garden, then we really have a great opportunity!

I have seen relevant records in ancient books before. But I always thought it was just some rumors. I didn't expect that such a thing actually existed. "Senior Brother Cheng's eyes were filled with joy and he murmured, his eyes couldn't help but look around again.

"Senior Dayan, you are becoming more and more confused as you get older. Legend has it that the aura of Lingmiao Garden is several times that of the human world, and there are spiritual flowers and grasses everywhere. Look at this place again, it is so desolate that there are not even a few dogtail grass growing there. "Lu Yuan naturally knows about Lingmiao Garden, but there seems to be only one palm-sized place in Falling Demon Valley, and it will be found by the fool after a while.

He just sensed it here, it was more than ten miles away, not at all.

"I'm just guessing. If it's a ruins, maybe there's elixir growing in any of the corners!"

"I'll take you down. The spiritual energy here is so thin and chaotic that you can't even practice cultivation. It's a long-lasting elixir. The most important thing is that the demonic energy here is several times the spiritual energy. I wonder if it was the ancient cross-border elixir." This is where the ancient demons from the world are hiding." The Nine-turn True Demon Art practiced by Lu Yuan is a demonic skill, and his induction of demonic energy is much more sensitive than Brother Tiezi and Senior Brother Cheng.

This is definitely not Lingmiao Garden!

Suddenly, Lu Yuan's expression changed, and he thought of the place where the ancient demon was released from the Ghost Spirit Sect. The description in the original book is almost the same as here!

But not here!

Lu Yuan quickly opened his consciousness to the maximum, covering the space instantly. With his consciousness, which was a bit stronger than that of later monks, he scanned every place in the space, even holes the size of ant nests.

After a while, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for a guy who found a middle-level cultivation, there were no other fluctuations. It seemed that it was not the space where the Ghost Spirit Sect and the others were.

"How is it?" Senior Brother Cheng asked with hope. He naturally knew that Lu Yuan was scanning with his spiritual consciousness just now. He very much hoped that Lu Yuan could tell him that he had discovered the elixir, which would preferably extend his life.

"We found the old ghost from Taichu, but the place where he is is very interesting." Lu Yuan had a strange look on his face and took the lead to fly forward.

The three of them carefully flew away for several miles. All they saw along the way was a wasteland of rocks, not even any weeds.

The only good news is that there are no spatial cracks here, which makes a few people feel relieved.

And I don't know if it was an illusion, but the three of them all felt that the spiritual energy seemed to be gradually getting thicker as they moved forward.

After continuing for a hundred feet, they were able to determine that the concentration of spiritual energy was nearly twice as high as at the entrance of the cave.

"What is that!" Brother Tiezi pointed forward and asked in surprise.

Thousands of feet away, between two low mountains, there was a faint milky white light shining.

"No wonder the old ghost is hiding over there in the early days. Go and have a look!" Lu Yuan's heart moved and he guessed something. The three of them escaped together and flew towards the light.

Without the worry of space cracks, the distance of a thousand feet is nothing to a bunch of Nascent Soul cultivators.

After a few flashes, the three of them arrived in front of two low mountains with a small valley sandwiched between them.

"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is ten times more pure than outside!" Senior Brother Cheng murmured, unable to hide the trace of shock on his face.

Immediately, the three figures moved one after another and fell towards the place where the light was emitted in the middle of the valley.

This is a pool several feet square, with milky white light reflected in the pool. The liquid inside is as warm as milk, and a little bit of colorful light swims back and forth from time to time.

The fountain of spiritual eyes?

No, Lu Yuan remembered his trip to Xutian Palace. The concentration of spiritual energy in the spiritual eye spring inside was far different from that in this pool.

"Old man from the beginning!" Senior Brother Cheng shouted angrily.

Lu Yuan followed the sound and saw the corner of the pool. The old ghost from Taichu was hiding there furtively under the aura.

"I'm going to die, old man!" Lu Yuan's face was filled with murderous intent, and he was about to kill him.

"I advise fellow Taoist fellows not to get angry, otherwise we will all perish together!" Taichu Old Ghost raised a hand and reached to the side.

Lu Yuan and the others took a closer look, only to find that there seemed to be someone sitting cross-legged in that corner!

However, due to being blocked by the aura of the pool, only an outline could be seen.

The three of them walked around the pool and slowly walked to one side.

Only then did he realize that a middle-aged man wearing armor was sitting cross-legged next to the Taichu old ghost, his eyes closed.

The armor style is too strange, only covering the limb joints and vital parts. Other places are connected by an unknown type of clothing that resembles woven silk.

However, the weirdest thing is that there is a dagger-like magic weapon stuck on the man's head, leaving only the handle about a foot long exposed.

"Dead person?" Senior Brother Cheng paused for a moment.

"Maybe he's not dead yet!" Lu Yuan said solemnly.

Because he discovered that judging from the current situation, it would be impossible for a man to survive if his Tianling Cap was pierced.

But Lu Yuan could still feel the vitality flowing through his body, and he also pulled out a faint aura from the pool. It was injected into his own body, which should be the reason why he did not die completely.

Lu Yuan thought for a while, then raised his gaze to the dagger above the man's head.

The shape of the hilt of the dagger has an indescribable strangeness, and it is engraved with complex patterns. After staring closely for a while, Lu Yuan suddenly trembled deep in his soul, and his body shivered involuntarily.

"That's too evil!" Lu Yuan quickly looked away, and the discomfort in his soul slowly disappeared.

"Why does this armor feel somewhat similar to the puppet in the passage!" God Lord Dayan suddenly became suspicious.

"Puppet?" Lu Yuan came to his senses and remembered that the joints on the puppet's body were indeed wrapped with some equipment.

Could he be the master of that puppet?

Spiritual monk!

Lu Yuan and the three of them were shocked at the same time and thought together.

So I glanced at the man, but I was surprised to find that I couldn't see the man's state at all. The whole body seemed empty, which was really weird.

Could it be that this person has advanced to the stage of divine transformation, and all the spiritual energy in his body can be dispersed from the meridians in his body into his flesh and blood, so nothing can be discovered?

"Old ghost Taichu, who is this person?" Lu Yuan asked coldly.

"How do I know who he is, but you should have discovered it too. This person still has a glimmer of life, but it seems to be sealed by the magic weapon above his head.

If I pull out the magic weapon, what do you think will happen? "The Taichu old ghost threatened.

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes after hearing this. If the magic weapon was pulled out, this person would definitely wake up.

But no one can guarantee what he will do when he wakes up.

If it is really a spiritual monk, it is very possible that he thanked Old Ghost Taichu for helping him break the seal and killed the three of them.

Of course, another possibility is to kill everyone present, and this is the biggest possibility.

Because Lu Yuan clearly felt the presence of a large amount of demonic energy from his body.

Maybe this person has been filled with demonic energy and has become a member of the ancient demons.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Lu Yuan looked at Taichu Old Ghost calmly.

"What do you want, hehe. I intend to give you a chance, what do you think?"

"Opportunity?" After hearing this, Lu Yuan and the three of them had a funny look on their faces.

Doesn't this old ghost from Taichu know that others want to throw the words out of his mouth into the pit, and now he wants to do it again?

"Old ghost from Taichu, from Qixialian to God Transformation Relic, have you ever told the truth? Now what are you trying to fool us with? This time, you won't say that the person next to you is a master of virtual refining, right?" Lu Yuan scoffed.

"Friend Lu Dao, why do you always criticize others? No matter what level this person is, he actually has a storage bag on his body!" The old ghost from Taichu said with a thick skin and no care.

"Huh, so what if he has a storage bag? Who dares to touch such a weird guy? You've been here for so long and you haven't moved at all." Lu Yuan glanced at the middle-aged man. There was a bulging bag on his waist, and there was obviously something. .

"Let's not talk about this person for now. The opportunity I'm talking about is actually this spiritual eye pool. This place was actually a spiritual garden in ancient times, but it was occupied by ancient demons and transformed. Later, because of the evil spirit inside, it became more and more... It became stronger and stronger, causing all the spiritual energy in Lingmiao Garden to be compressed here, and finally formed such a spiritual eye pool."

“The spiritual energy inside is so rich that it’s rare in the world...

If we use this pool water to bathe, soak and refine it, it will be enough for the four of us to advance to the late Nascent Soul stage! "The old ghost from Taichu was really good at talking. He boasted that this spiritual pool was not found in the sky and was hard to find on the earth.

"Later stage of Nascent Soul!" Senior Brother Cheng's eyes narrowed, and the thoughts that had long been buried in his heart were beginning to stir up.

When Lu Yuan heard this, he sneered in his heart.

"I guess you are right, but you are at the peak of the middle stage of Nascent Soul, so you will definitely advance to the late stage before us. I'm afraid you will attack the three of us immediately, right?" Han Li listened to Taichu's boast. He said with a smile but not a smile.

"Talk to you? I don't dare. After all, you, Fellow Daoist Lu, can compete with the great monks on your own. I have already seen how powerful Fellow Daoist is. Plus, with the help of Fellow Daoist Zhang and Fellow Daoist Cheng, how can I dare to touch your brows." The old ghost from Taichu waved his hands repeatedly. , made a haha.

"But there is something I need to explain to you three. I must be the first to enter the pool!"

"You still dare to raise conditions?" Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Of course! First of all, if I don't go in first, the three fellow Taoists may not be at ease. Aren't you worried that I will set you up again?"

"Secondly, now that I have lost my essence, I must first enter the pool to recover so that I can have some self-protection. This point makes sense no matter who I put it on."

"What do you three fellow Taoists think?" Taichu Old Ghost put on a serious face this time and spoke with utmost sincerity.

"Did you miss one thing? Wouldn't it be better if I killed you and the three of us had this pool to ourselves!" Lu Yuan's voice suddenly turned cold and he was about to take action.

"If you are not afraid of me undoing this man's seal, fellow Taoist, feel free to do it!" The Taichu old ghost seemed to have expected it, and his hand got closer to the magic weapon on the middle-aged man's head.

"It's just a joke, Taoist Taoist Brother Taichu, why do you take it seriously?" Lu Yuan said with a smile, and his expression changed so quickly that Brother Cheng and Brother Cheng were speechless.

The two of them had just sacrificed their magic weapons.

"I'm very nervous right now, Taoist friends, it's better to stop making such jokes." Taichu Old Ghost said angrily, and retracted his hand a little. Obviously, he didn't dare to take the risk of pulling out the magic weapon above the mysterious man's head.

"Fellow Taoist, you can enter the pool to recover first." Lu Yuan pointed at the spirit pool and signaled to the Taichu old ghost.

"Fellow Taoist, have you agreed to my request?" Old Ghost Taichu couldn't believe it.

"Well, hurry up, don't waste time." Lu Yuan said impatiently.

"You swear on your inner demon first, otherwise I won't trust you."

"Okay, I swear." After Lu Yuan immediately swore an oath not to break the contract, he suddenly looked at Taichu Old Ghost coldly.

"But Taoist Taoist Taichu, your Xinyu seems to be even worse. How about swearing on the demon in your heart?"

"You don't need to remind me, fellow Taoist, I naturally know what to do."
