The cave is actually myself

Chapter 268 The tailless human-faced fox who is close to the seventh level

After teaching the "Xuanyin Soul Binding Method" to Wu Jiu and his villagers, Lu Yuan returned to the simple and boring daily life in the cave.

Apart from occasionally teasing the children, the rest of the time is basically spent cultivating several high-grade spiritual plants and refining elixirs.

after March.

The pink tentacles with Huanyin pupils took tiny steps and came to the place where Lu Yuan was refining alchemy.

After Lu Yuan agreed, a high-definition uncensored screen appeared in front of him.

In the field of vision shared by the eye clone, on the periphery of the cave, a familiar figure slowly walked towards the cave.

"The tailless human-faced fox is here again." Lu Yuan murmured to himself.

The fox still had the same scrawled and dilapidated appearance that he had seen before, with sparse hair growing on its dark black fur, flying freely in the black mist.

Wherever it passed, the black fog instantly became much lighter, and the remains of countless black zombies fell to the ground like rain.

A thin red chain was wrapped around its limbs, and the chain closed behind it and dragged on the ground.

There is a bronze human face mask hanging on the face, the mask seems to be smiling but not smiling.

As it got closer and closer to the cave, the fox's steps became more and more brisk. Even if the chain was dragging, it could not affect its speed.

"Did this tailless human-faced fox pass by by chance, or did it come specifically for me?"

Lu Yuan was puzzled.

He remembered clearly that the fox had promised to him that if he could free more peaks of Luomeng Mountain from the invasion and pollution of demonic energy, he would be grateful and repay him.

Lu Yuan did not dare to neglect this mysterious and powerful weird fox. He possessed his spiritual mind on the bone-eating demon puppet, chose a skin to put on it, and faced it.

"My Taoist friends have come from afar, but I am sorry for the loss."

Lu Yuan intercepted the tailless human-faced fox outside the cave. There were many high-grade spiritual plants, rare treasures, etc. in the core area of ​​the cave, and he did not want to put this weird fox inside.

The tailless human-faced fox looked at Lu Yuan intently. The bronze mask hung on his face. A pair of slender eyes were slightly squinted. A smile appeared on the exposed mouth. The flying sparse hair curled up on the dark skin. .

"Only after I came in did I remember that I told you last time that if you could fully restore more peaks in Luomeng Mountain, I would be very grateful."

"I didn't expect that you actually did it. Although I don't know what method you used to restore a blessed land that was completely polluted by demonic energy to such a state, it is an indisputable fact that you did it."

"This bronze mask is a portable magic weapon that I have used for many years. It has many wonderful uses. It is not that useful to me now, so I will leave it to you."

In the fox's old and vague words, the bronze mask on his face suddenly peeled off automatically and floated in front of Lu Yuan.

The part of the fox's face that was covered by the mask was also revealed, with dark red and dark muscles of various colors intertwined together, constantly squirming, and it was very scary.

Lu Yuan did not go to get the fox mask, but asked curiously.

"Compared with this mask, I am more interested in, what is the identity of the senior?"

"What identity..."

The tailless human-faced fox murmured in a low voice, seeming to be reminiscing about something.

"It's nothing. It's just that an old immortal soul from the Lishan Sect in Luomeng Mountain merged into one with the same old immortal spiritual beast that protects the mountain, and it became what it is now."

"Lishan Sect monk? Mountain guardian spirit beast?"

"Yes, in order to survive, I used a special method to perfectly integrate my soul with the spirit beast's body. You have me, and I have you, regardless of each other."

"The Lishan Sect on Luomeng Mountain was really destroyed by an extraterrestrial demon?" Lu Yuan then asked.

"Basically yes, but I'm not completely sure. I just remember that when I was practicing in seclusion, a sudden burst of darkness swept through the entire sect, and most of the sect's disciples melted away in an instant. Because of my good strength and a special amulet, I was lucky enough to escape."

"After merging with this fox, he was eroded by the demonic energy. He suppressed the demonic energy and refined it in the chain behind him. After that, he lost all his mind. He relied on the mountain-protecting instinct of the spirit beast and wandered around the mountains like a lonely ghost. inside."

"Only after entering your cave, my mind becomes clearer and I can remember some things."

"It would be my honor to be able to help my seniors a little bit."

Lu Yuan said modestly. He probably believed [-]% to [-]% of the words of the tailless human-faced fox in front of him. However, as the strength of the cave itself continued to increase, it no longer mattered to him whether what the fox said was true or false.

"As early as the first time I entered your territory, I noticed you. You actually have such a pure land in this polluted Luomeng Mountain, and the scope is getting wider and wider. The purity of your spiritual energy is comparable to that of some small... Zongmen."

"Little friend, how about we make a deal?"

The tailless human-faced fox suddenly said to Lu Yuan.

"Oh? What do you say?"

Lu Yuan suddenly became interested.

"I have two conditions. First, I hope that you, my friend, will allow me to stay in your territory for a longer period of time.

At present, your territory occupies about half of Luomeng Mountain. Being able to stay here with you means that I can maintain my sanity for a much longer time. My current strength is at level seven, and I can help you if necessary. "

"The second condition is that I hope you can pass on the Lishan Sect's skills. I see that you have some young people here who have just started practicing. You can choose some suitable ones and teach them the Lishan Sect's skills. ."

"Then what can I get?" Lu Yuan has always been one who doesn't let the rabbit fly before he sees it, and he won't do anything if he can't get any benefit. "

"In addition to being able to help you with my own level seven, I can also tell you about the many treasures and treasures left by the Lishan Sect deep in Luomeng Mountain."

"You know, because the sect was destroyed so quickly, many treasures and treasures have been completely preserved. This is the case with the bloody sword you got before, little friend."

"For so many years, although monks have entered it constantly, wanting to obtain the treasures inside, due to the black fog environment of Luoyan Mountain, it is very inconvenient to move around, and it is difficult to find all the treasure places."

"In addition to the various alienated monsters, weird ones, and the formation restrictions that were originally arranged, there should still be a lot of good things inside."

"I can tell you some relatively safe treasure places, little friend, so that you can easily obtain the treasures inside. At the same time, it is also to better pass on the Lishan Sect's skills."

Lu Yuan fell into deep thought.

The two conditions mentioned by the fox were easily met by him.

The first one is to let him stay in the cave for a long time. The biggest problem is that if the fox wants to harm the cave, it can cause huge damage to the cave with its almost seventh-level strength.

It's just that Lu Yuan speculates that the probability of such a thing happening is extremely small. If it had this idea, it would have taken action as early as the first time it entered the cave, and there is no need to discuss it with him when it entered the cave for the third time.

The second condition is easier to achieve. Teaching some monks in the cave to learn the Lishan Sect's techniques is not a problem at all for Lu Yuan. He is not starting a sect anyway, so the monks in the Kunlun Mansion don't mind learning anything.

As for the benefits promised by the fox, with the quasi-level [-] sitting in the cave, the strength of the cave has risen by more than one level. You must know that the most powerful little paper man in the cave is still not sure whether it can beat this fox.

However, the advantage of the cave is that there are many weird monsters, and there are many treasure formations and restrictions, etc., so it is not a problem to defeat the fox together.

If he agrees, he can also get detailed information about Luomeng Mountain from the fox, and he won't be basically blind.

After Lu Yuan moved here for so long, he only explored two important treasures in Luoyan Mountain, one is the alchemy hall with Tianqing elixir, and the other is Doujianlu.

With the help of the fox, it is equivalent to having the entire map of Luomeng Mountain, and even a detailed guide, and the difficulty of obtaining treasures is greatly reduced.

"Senior, I wonder when you can be promoted to seventh grade?"

Lu Yuan asked the question that concerned him most.

The fox entered the cave for the third time, and the rewards it brought were significantly less than the previous two times. If he could be promoted to a seventh-level existence in the cave...

Lu Yuan suddenly fell into a wonderful fantasy.

"Seventh level... is very difficult. I have wasted a lot of time over the years, but I have also figured out a practice method suitable for this state. I am still certain that I can be promoted to seventh level."

The tailless human-faced fox thought for a while and said solemnly.

Hearing the fox's answer, Lu Yuan didn't hesitate any more. If the deal between the two was concluded normally, Lu Yuan would have already made a lot of money. If the fox's promotion bonus was added...

It's hard to make money!
He immediately made an inner demon oath with the tailless human-faced fox, reached an agreement in all aspects, and each left a promise.

Then, Lu Yuan couldn't wait to ask this living map of Luomeng Mountain about the unexplored treasures deep in the mountains.

From the mouth of the tailless human-faced fox, we learned that these treasures probably include the practice places of several elders and sect leaders of the Lishan Sect, the Sutra Pavilion that stores the sect's various exercises, and the two Lishan Sect's alchemy and weapon refining sites. The main place is also the Blood Prison where the sect suppresses and imprisons strange monsters, evil monks, etc...

Here, there are already a few discovered by the monks who came in later, including the Alchemy Palace and Dou Jian Lu that he once entered.

Because the fox was bound by chains and in order to resist the erosion of the evil spirit, he could only act instinctively in the black mist and was unable to occupy those treasures.

"From now on, I will leave all such matters to me. I will definitely not let Li Shan Sect's treasures fall into the hands of other thieves."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he immediately made a righteous promise to the fox.

He learned from the fox that the fox could stay in the cave for about three months. After this period, the fox would enter the black mist to patrol the mountains until the next time he came.

After making the inner demon oath, Lu Yuan felt more at ease. He left the tailless human-faced fox on the outskirts of the cave, opened the formation restrictions in the core area of ​​the cave, took the small paper man and the Phantom Eyes, and quickly entered the thick black mist with the barefoot golden crow. .

Based on the information provided to him by the fox, he chose the one with the lowest difficulty as the target for this trip.

It was the Sutra Collection Pavilion of the Lishan Sect, which contained various cultivation methods. The pavilion was hidden deep in the mountains and was protected by extremely powerful formations. It has not been discovered by other monks until now.

The tailless human-faced fox also specially taught Lu Yuan a method to discover and crack the formation. He wanted Lu Yuan to enter it even more, because the sooner he took out the classic skills inside, the faster he could pass them on. .

Half a day later, Lu Yuan traveled through many dangerous places and peaks and successfully arrived at his destination.

A mountain with a height of thousands of feet. There are many huge stone walls standing on the mountain peak, and many strange lines are carved on the stone walls.

Lu Yuan put his spiritual thoughts to the maximum. With his current strength of spiritual thoughts, he could find out the hidden secrets here with precise and careful perception, but it was extremely difficult to find out immediately, let alone the other monks who entered.

He asked the little paper man to cover the surface of his body with a layer of fine insect paper tape, and turned the approaching black mist into paper. He concentrated his mind and recited the technique taught to him by the fox in a low voice.

As he chanted faster and faster, towards the end, layers of transparent ripples appeared on the mountain peaks, and the ripples became more and more solid.

A scarlet eyeball came out of Lu Yuan's chest and turned slightly, taking in all the subtle changes in the ripples.

With the magic of the tailless human-faced fox to guide the formation, and the powerful ability of the Phantom Eyes to break through illusions, Lu Yuan successfully passed through the layers of ripples.

As soon as he entered, Lu Yuan seemed to have entered a new world.

The thick black fog that was everywhere in Luomeng Mountain suddenly became lighter. In front of me was an empty flat land. At the end of the flat land was a tall building. The three characters "Tibetan Scripture Pavilion" on the plaque on the door of the building seemed to be alive with insects. squirming.

Lu Yuan stepped on the open flat ground and could only hear the echo of his own footsteps. Other than that, there was silence.

But he didn't dare to be careless in his heart. According to what the tailless human-faced fox said, in addition to the outermost formation of the Lishan Sect's Scripture Pavilion, there was a strange existence called a bookworm in the attic.

These bookworms usually live among the jade slips of classic books in the Sutra Pavilion. They are cunning and eccentric. After possessing the jade slips of classic books for a long time, they have a profound understanding of the martial arts and magic in them.

If disciples of the Lishan Sect want to practice exercises, they can enter the Sutra Pavilion with permission and find the exercises they need. After feeding the bookworms inside with special treasures, the bookworms will enter their sea of ​​consciousness and help them. Practice that skill better and faster.

The surface of the bookworm that has just possessed the classics will have countless densely packed small characters with pinholes. After digesting the contents, the bookworm will gradually become transparent bamboo-shaped, almost completely integrated into the jade slips of the classics.

If he had entered the Sutra Pavilion before, as long as the monks had proof of identity and had obtained permission in advance for the exercises they practiced, the bookworm would not do anything to hurt the sect disciples except occasionally playing tricks on them.

But that's not necessarily the case now. Corroded and polluted by the omnipresent demonic energy, the bookworms in the Sutra Pavilion don't know what they have become. Lu Yuan needs to explore everything by himself.

He brought the three children for their own reasons. Needless to say, the little paper man has the strongest combat power. The ability of the Huan Yin Pupil to break through illusions can help him find the traces of the extremely powerful bookworm.

As for the Barefoot Golden Crow, it's very simple. All books are afraid of fire, and the bookworm possessed by the jade slips of the classics is probably not much better.

It just so happens that the Barefoot Golden Crow is an expert at setting fire. Its own golden flames, the deep purple and pure white flames that engulf the fusion, and the three fires come down together, even if the bookworm is alienated, it has nothing to fear.
