Chapter 112 The Strange Beast in the Mine
The mineral veins naturally refer to the fire spirit veins,
An accident with the Huo Lingmai is not an option. Zhao Xiuxuan raised his hand to urge the entire Qingling Phantom Feather Formation, making it impossible for everyone to enter and exit the formation normally. Then, in desperation, he directly carried his clansmen to perform the Luoyan Step, and followed the guidance of the clansmen for a while , came to the deepest part of the mine.

In the underground natural mine of Huo Lingmai, a scarlet aura shone on every panicked face.

The thirteen clansmen, including Zhao Duyun and Zhao Duju, were holding their breath right now, not daring to vent their breath.

Zhao Xiuxuan entered this cave through the excavated mine.

The rich fire aura made him hot all over, and his dantian felt like it was boiling.

"Elder."

The clansman greeted him cautiously.

"Uncle Liu, what's going on here?"

Zhao Xiuxuan frowned and looked around. This is a huge natural cave full of fire aura. It is as high as four or five feet high. There are pieces of exposed red crystal gemstones and large areas of associated mines. This is a good thing. It is indeed full of fear and fear.

Zhao Duyun pointed to the depths of the cave, as if that was the source of fear of the clansmen.

Zhao Xiuxuan followed his hand and saw that there was a crack in the cave for people to pass through. Looking out along the crack, he discovered that there was actually a larger underground space in the depths of the cave. The cave where several people lived, but It's just a small crack at the edge of the underground space. On the edge of the crack is a cliff of several tens of feet. Under that cliff, the red light is shining brightly, and the fire spirit gathers to form a terrifying scene like a sea of ​​fire.

And in the sea of ​​spiritual energy, there is a huge bronze platform. On the bronze platform, there is a huge skeleton of an unknown monster. Its bones are covered in red flames. It is lying there, one or two feet high, and its ribs are bent like sharp knives. .

In the chest area of ​​the corpse, two huge bronze chains nailed it to the bronze platform, and it was unknown how many years it had been dead.

Taking a closer look, beside the huge corpse lay a strange beast like a lion with four claws and golden eyes, covered in red wool.

At this time, the strange beast was exhaling and exhaling the fire aura around it, as if it was cultivating, and a powerful aura fluctuated along with its breathing, spreading on the bronze platform.

"Xiuxuan, it's this beast. We just opened up the mine leading to this place. We never thought that the center of the spirit veins is actually this space when we came in. And just now, the spirit veins seem to have a momentary dislocation. There was a change, the beast suddenly roared, which startled everyone."

It was Zhao Duyun who was speaking. As an elder, apart from Zhao Xiuxuan, he was already the highest in this group of people at the ninth level of Qi training, but under the power of the strange beast spirit on the bronze platform, he was terrified and dared not speak out.

"Looking at the aura, it should be a second-order monster, but I don't know what kind of monster it is, and how it appeared in the ground."

Zhao Xiuxuan thought for a while, and led everyone back out along the mine vein.

On the way out, everyone was silent until they got out of the cave and came to the ground, and then they were out of breath.

Zhao Duju broke out in a cold sweat
"Xiuxuan, the center of this spirit vein should be the skeleton of the monster. The dead monster must have been a remarkable existence. I don't know how many years after death, the bones can still gather so much spiritual energy.

It is rumored that there are very few spiritual veins that are not born, but rely on the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth to absorb and gather spiritual energy little by little, thus slowly transforming the surrounding mountain veins into spiritual veins. If I guessed correctly, this fire spirit vein is similar to this The bones of the monster are inseparable, and the smaller beast should be the heir of the dead monster, and I don't know how many years I have cultivated in this fire vein."

"Uncle Ten, in your opinion, this matter is good or bad for us"

Zhao Xiuxuan decided to listen to the opinion of this person who is proficient in spiritual pulse technique first.

"It's certainly not a good thing for a monster to pop out of a good spirit vein. Moreover, the spirit vein evolved from the bone of an unknown monster beast is very fragile and must not be touched at will. If the bone of the monster beast is accidentally damaged, the entire spirit vein will be destroyed. It will be destroyed immediately, so we can't move that monster at will."

"Fortunately, for some reason, the monster clearly found us, but ignored us."

Zhao Xiuxuan recalled the appearance of the strange beast swallowing up the aura, and had a vague feeling that he didn't ignore it, but that he had reached a critical moment in his cultivation and couldn't act without authorization.

With the existence of this monster, the exploration of the spiritual veins could not be carried out for a while, but fortunately, Zhao Xiuxuan had basically figured out the entire spiritual veins by using the Qingling Phantom Feather Formation.

At this time, he took out the jade slip with the engraved map of spiritual veins and handed it to Zhao Duju, which made his face full of shock, and after Zhao Xiuxuan explained the ins and outs, he was overjoyed again.

"To be able to achieve such a level, the spiritual master who can draw the entire Kanyu map with the formation alone must have the means of a second-level spiritual master. With this map, the work of Kanyu is considered complete, but now the mine The hole has been dug through the underground space, so we still need to dig the ore vein.”

Zhao Duyun and Zhao Xiuxuan made up their minds, and sent the clansman back to Chishan first. When they returned to the clan, Zhao Lingting held a clan meeting about the discovery of the monster in the spirit veins. Several elders were present to discuss how to deal with it.

After hearing Zhao Xiuxuan and Zhao Duyun's description of the monster, Zhao Lingting frowned, and searched through the Zhao family's Daoist collection, but still found nothing, and could not identify the monster.

"This monster has a powerful aura. It is undoubtedly a second-tier monster, and it is very likely that it is equivalent to a second-tier monster in the late stage of foundation establishment. It will be extremely risky for the clansmen to dig further. Therefore, it is best to stop the excavation work first. Wait for Xiuxuan to see if he can kill this demon."

Zhao Duyun is someone who has seen monsters before, and knows that this monster is definitely not simple.

"Xiu Xuan, what do you think?"

Everyone looked at Zhao Xiuxuan. Chu Yuzhi was recuperating in the cave and did not attend the family meeting. He was the only one present at the foundation building.

Zhao Xiuxuan thought for a while, and decided to probe the monster again before making a decision. However, considering the danger of damage to the spirit veins, he couldn't be in a hurry. He could only lure it out of the underground space first, or wait for it to walk out of the bronze platform by itself. .

Others expressed their support after hearing his plan.

In this way, Zhao Xiuxuan and Chu Yuzhi, the grandparents, came to Red Fire Valley again. At this time, the Red Fire Valley was covered by formations. From the outside, it looked like a lush forest, no different from other places.

Holding an array flag, Zhao Xiuxuan led Chu Yuzhi into the array, only then did he feel the aura of fire in the air.

"Xiuxuan, this formation is really mysterious, it is worthy of being a top-ranked second-order formation."

Chu Yuzhi was full of praise for Qingling's phantom feather array.

The two concealed their breath one by one, walked along the uneven mine, and groped into the underground space.

It was good that Zhao Xiuxuan had already been here once, but Chu Yuzhi was beyond shocked, but he couldn't open his mouth to marvel because of the danger ahead.

At this time, the red-velvet golden-eyed lion beast was still swallowing the fire aura around it, and it seemed more urgent than before, as if it knew that its hiding place was no longer safe.

Xu Shi sensed the arrival of the two foundation-building monks. Three groups of red flames emerged from the beast like boiling water. The temperature of the red flames was extremely high. As soon as they appeared, the air that was already scorched by the fire veins became more intense. It's hot, and it's like burning your throat between breaths.

The bronze platform was located in the center of the cliff, tens of feet away from Zhao Xiuxuan and the two of them. The red flame was only surrounded by the strange beast, showing a faint look of guard.

Zhao Xiuxuan and Chu Yuzhi greeted each other, slapped the storage bag, and a jade aura flew out. It was the Cuiyun boat. The flying speed of the boat.

This coordination has been experienced in Baigan Mountain, Zhao Xiuxuan believes that few people in the Foundation Establishment can catch up to him.

Yu Zhou rushed out of the cliff and slowly approached the bronze platform. The red spiritual energy in the mouth of the strange beast suddenly shrank, and a pair of golden eyes of copper bells suddenly opened. Looking at Zhao Xiuxuan who was approaching on guard all over his body, he raised his head to the sky and screamed, just as Zhao Xiuxuan Just when he thought it was about to rush over, the strange beast made an operation that made both of them laugh.

It was like a child, scurrying under the body of the nameless corpse, hiding under the rib hole, its eyes were confused, and it looked like it was at a loss.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xiuxuan couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and took a further step tentatively, but the beast let out a howl again, this time, a little red aura suddenly overflowed from the bones, sprinkled on the beast, and the beast was knocked instantly. Like medicine, he howled a few times.

As the red spiritual light overflowed from the bones, the entire spiritual vein suddenly became red, and a violent aura enveloped the two of them.

Zhao Xiuxuan retreated quickly, directly retreated to the top of the cliff, and retracted into the cave in the crack.

This time, the strange beast stared up at the two with a pair of golden eyes.

"It seems to me that this monster has stayed in this underground space for a long time and has never gone out, so it only instinctively guards against us, and there is no imminent threat, but it does not leave this bronze platform. As long as we approach, it howls Screaming will cause the bones to mutate and cause damage to the fire spirit vein."

Zhao Xiuxuan told Chu Yuzhi his analysis, and Chu Yuzhi nodded, looking at the strange beast with a dignified and old face full of thoughts.

"The bone can give birth to a spiritual vein, and its value is almost the same as that of heaven and earth spirit treasures. When this monster encounters danger, it burrows into the bone to seek protection. It should be the heir of this bone.

It is said that this spiritual vein is about 200 years old. If it is calculated in this way, and the evolution period of 3-4 hundred years is added, then the bones should have been here for about 700 years. In this way, this The cubs are also more than 700 years old.

The origin of this monster must not be simple."

"Although monster beasts will inherit some instincts in their blood, if this beast has no mother to feed it since it was born, and it is only for cultivation, then it is normal for him to behave like a child. Even if a baby is born, throw him in the In this environment, it’s not much better.”

Chu Yuzhi's analysis was straightforward. Although this monster is harmless to humans and animals, it occupies the center of the fire spirit vein, and the power of life and death of the entire spirit vein is in its hands. The Zhao family is naturally unwilling, so they must find a way to punish it. kill it, or.
Zhao Xiuxuan thought of a possibility, the spirit beast technique.
