The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

At this time, Lujia Village.

Two beams of light came to the outside of the village, and after stopping and starting, they finally arrived in front of Lu Liang's yard.

Looking at the ordinary mud house in front of them, Wang Ming and Li Mei carefully used their spiritual sense to probe into it, but found nothing unusual and no fluctuations of magic power.

The only person sensed in the room was a sleeping mortal.

"But here?" Wang Ming asked his fellow Taoist beside him with great confusion. Although he knew he already knew the answer, he still wanted to ask Li Mei to confirm it.

Li Mei was holding a pink bee-like insect in her hand. She frowned when she heard this and said, "My flower-hunting bee can't be wrong. It should be inside."

After Wang Ming got the answer, he looked at Li Mei and waved his sleeves. Four formation flags appeared in his hands. Then, with the surge of magic power, the formation flags flew in all directions, surrounding the yard and inserted into the ground. Then a transparent light rose.

After inserting the formation flag, a formation plate immediately appeared in Wang Ming's hand, with a medium-grade spirit stone embedded in the middle. He pinched his fingers, spiritual power emerged, and the formation plate immediately lit up with spiritual light.

Changes also occurred in the formation. A spiritual fire generated by the formation emerged and slammed down towards the yard.

After doing all this and when the formation finished its attack, Wang Ming had already set up his escape beam and flew away.

On the other side, Li Mei put on a breath-suppressing talisman and hid in the distance.

It’s no wonder that they are so cautious. They know that the man has means that can threaten their lives, and they are also afraid of unexpected situations.

As for why they appeared here, it all started two days ago.

When Wang Ming and Li Mei gave up tracking, they returned to the market, changed their clothes, and returned to their respective posts.

Wang Ming was on duty at the city gate. Less than half an hour later, four monks with concealed faces flew in from the sky.

Wang Ming recognized at a glance that these were the four people who had followed Lu Liang with them and persisted until the end.

Seeing that they were dressed neatly and breathing steadily, Wang Ming guessed that these four people must not have found the fat sheep.

His eyes flickered several times, Wang Ming made up his mind, and immediately asked his fellow student on duty to help him take leave.

He was very clear about his fellow Taoist's methods. Although the Xunhua Peak in his hand had no combat power, it was a good means of tracking when combined with a strange spiritual fragrance.

In particular, the special spiritual incense is extremely concealed and is difficult to detect without special means. However, it also has a disadvantage, which is that the spiritual materials needed to configure the spiritual incense are a bit expensive.

It has been less than a day now, but the scent of the spiritual incense can last for seven days. If I catch up with it now, I might have a chance to make a fortune.

After the incident that day, on the way back, the two calmed down and figured out many details.

After a lot of detailed analysis, a complete story emerged in their minds.

A mortal happened to find a cultivator's cave, and discovered a spirit beast egg, the remains of a cultivator, and all the resources he had acquired throughout his life.

When this mortal learned about another world from the relic book, he found that he had no spiritual roots and could only place his hopes on his descendants.

But when he got old, he didn't find a descendant with spiritual roots, and his lifespan was almost exhausted, and the monster hatched from the spirit beast egg was about to advance. Because he had cultivated it since childhood, he had a deep relationship with the spirit beast, and finally chose to come to Qingsong Market to exchange the spiritual objects needed for the spirit beast to advance.

These speculations were made by Wang Ming and Li Mei based on clues.

A bowl of magic tea can remove hair and cleanse marrow, making them certain that Lu Liang was just a mortal. This was also the reason why they immediately prepared to track him again after discovering an opportunity half a day later.

Otherwise, if he really is a cultivator with great skills, they would not dare to provoke him. Anyone who can produce third-level demon blood is definitely not an ordinary person.

Next, a mortal can control a perfect first-order demon beast. He must have been trained since childhood. This is also the reason why people speculate that this person has encountered a cultivator’s cave. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain.

Purchasing spiritual objects is also a major reason, as they are elixirs for advanced spiritual objects and second-level monsters.

The only two things that cultivators can use are the Teleportation Talisman and the Yin Thunder Pearl, both of which can be activated by inputting some spiritual energy. They are probably meant to be left for future descendants with spiritual roots to use as a means of preserving their lives.

However, they were not sure where that person got the last third-level demon blood. It might be a relic from the cultivator's cave. This possibility made them even more excited, as it meant that the cultivator was at least a Jindan.

If they could obtain the wealth of a Jindan cultivator, they would both soar to great heights.

But it is also possible that it was picked up. There are many people with great luck in the world of immortal cultivation, and any stone they picked up may be an immortal stone.

Back to the present.

When the bombardment of the formation ended, the small earthen house had been razed to the ground.

The huge roar resounded throughout the entire village, but no one dared to go out to check the situation.

Lu Liang also died without knowing it. At night he was still dreaming of becoming an immortal, but he never expected that the spiritual stone he treasured would become a soul hook.

Wang Ming and Li Mei hid nearby and waited for an hour, but found that there was still no movement around. Gradually they let down their guard and came to the remains of the earthen house to search for spiritual objects.

Now it has been basically confirmed that there are no cultivators around and the first-level demon bird is not here either, so the two have nothing to worry about.

An hour later.

The two men stood in front of the ruins in silence. They had searched several times and even dug three feet into the ground, but they found nothing except the tampered middle-grade spirit stone and a skeleton.

This made Wang Ming and Li Mei very angry. They had paid a lot for this trip. If this was the only gain, it would be a complete loss.

“Could it be that all the things are on that monster bird?” Wang Ming was the first to break the silence and asked an uncertain question.

Li Mei's eyes lit up at the side. If it was for the purpose of better preserving spiritual objects for cultivation, it was very likely that the valuables would be placed on the demon bird.

But I don't know what she thought of. Li Mei frowned again and said, "Then do you know where the monster bird is?"

Hearing this, Wang Ming also smiled bitterly.

When they were halfway there, they found two trails, but the smell on Luliang's trail was stronger, so they came here.

Now three days have passed, and the already faint smell on the other trail must have evaporated long ago, making it impossible for them to find it.

Thinking of this, they guessed that it might be that the first-level perfect demon bird had taken all the spiritual creatures to be promoted. Now they couldn't find the promotion location, and they didn't dare to wait here, otherwise what might be waiting for them was a second-level demon bird.

But it was really hard for them to leave like this.
