At this moment, 'Liu Yingyao' and Ying Yiming were standing beside the magic circle used for bloodstains, and the magic circle depicted in it was cracked in many places.
In the center, there was a half-foot-wide crack that divided the entire magic circle into two, and the spear and the body of the monk dressed as a deacon elder also fell into it.
"Senior Sister, if there is really the demonic energy you mentioned, it must be coming from the elder's body. Wait for me for a moment."
Afterwards, Ying Yiming jumped into the crack, but quickly came out in just a few breaths: "There is indeed a trace of devilish energy on the corpse,"
"Originally, I wanted to bring the elder's body up, but just as I was about to touch it, that trace of devilish energy rushed towards me as if alive."
"So, then we have to wait for someone from the sect to solve it." Liu Yingyao was quite surprised: why didn't this happen when I was close to the magic circle last night.
"Okay, then let's go to the place where the spirit stones are stored." Then Ying Yiming made a gesture like a waiter in a shop inviting guests: "Senior sister, please."
"Be courteous for nothing." Dai Mei frowned slightly, and with a cold glance, Liu Yingyao took the lead to walk towards the valley where they fought last night.
Although Ying Yiming had visited once last night, due to the gloomy sky and the eagerness to save people at that time, he did not carefully check the surrounding situation at that time.
Looking closely now, I am astonished: the valley with a radius of nearly ten feet collapsed and sank into a deep pit, which clearly shows the intensity of the battle.
The two came to the outside of the cave where the mined spirit stones were stored, but found that the entrance of the cave was tightly blocked by rocks of different sizes.
Just when Liu Yingyao raised her right hand and put her fingers together to destroy the rocks with sword energy, she suddenly felt that her mana stagnated and her body staggered and almost fell down.
Seeing this, Ying Yiming quickly stepped forward and reached out to support her: "Senior Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, it's just that the mana in the body is exhausted."
"Your face is so ugly, let me check it for you."
"No need!" A cold light flashed in Liu Yingyao's eyes, she walked a few steps to the side, pointed to the entrance of the cave, and said coldly, "Just trouble me, Junior Brother."
"Senior sister, you are really..., okay."
Ying Yiming sighed and walked to the chaotic rocks, then raised his palms outwards, gathered mana with both palms and shot a fireball the size of a washbasin towards the entrance of the cave.
There was a burst, and the rocks scattered and turned into smoke and dust.
"Senior Sister, follow behind me."
The humidity in the cave is quite heavy, everything looks wet, and there are many puddles of water on the bumpy ground.
On both sides of the passage that can only accommodate three people in parallel, there are many mine carts for transporting spirit stones. The two of them walked one after the other for nearly a meal before they came to a huge stone room at the end of the passage.
There is an artificial fence in the middle of the stone chamber to divide the whole space into two.
Unprocessed ore of spirit stone is piled up on the left side, and several rooms of the same size have been dug on the mountain wall. The room is equipped with all kinds of exercise equipment, which is obviously a place for processing the ore of spirit stone.
On the right side, there are more than a hundred bamboo baskets that look like burdens, most of which are empty. There are only a few low-level spirit stones left in a few bamboo baskets, and a few middle-level spirit stones.
"It seems that the mysterious man took away the spirit stones here." Ying Yiming glanced around and felt rather strange: "If they came here for the spirit stones, why didn't they take these raw ores away."
'Dharma circle, blood sacrifice, crystal fragments' Hearing Ying Yiming's words, Liu Yingyao couldn't help but think of the scene when she saw the magic circle last night: "Maybe it was used in that magic circle."
"This evil cultivator is really abominable," Ying Yiming glanced at those bamboo baskets, took out a storage bag and put away all the remaining spirit stones. Then he handed it to Liu Yingyao: "Not only did the people on the island perform the blood sacrifice, but they also took away the spirit stones."
"What do you mean?" This sudden move made 'Liu Yingyao' feel speechless for a moment.
"I saw that the dharma sword used by my senior sister was broken." Ying Yiming took two steps forward, with a playful smile on his lips: "My master originally planned to let our bloodline solve this task by ourselves, but I don't know why, but I suddenly received a summons from the head of the house, specifying that you should deal with it."
"Aren't you afraid of your master's inquiry?"
Ying Yiming didn't care about Liu Yingyao's blunt words, and weighed the storage bag in his hand: "Senior sister, when you become one of the top ten disciples of the sect and own your own property, you will know that these things are just a drop in the bucket. That's all."
"How do you know that I will definitely become a top ten disciple?" Liu Yingyao didn't blink her eyes, as if she wanted to read something from her face.
Ying Yiming's tone was very firm: "Dharma, spouse, wealth, and land are the eternal laws in the cultivation world. With the qualifications of a senior sister, she will definitely become one of the top ten disciples in the future."
"That's really a good word for you." Liu Yingyao didn't put on an air, after taking the storage bag, she turned around and walked out of the cave: So, is this an advance investment?
When they came out of the cave, they found a red-faced old man standing not far in front of the cave, with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently at the two people who came out of the cave.
Although Liu Yingyao knew that the sect would send someone to deal with the island's affairs, she didn't expect that the person would be Elder Qi, and he would come so quickly.
But Ying Yiming felt very surprised: I sent a message to my master to explain the situation here, but I didn't expect that Elder Qi, who is the right and left hand of the head, would come here. This is really strange.
"Recount everything that happened to you last night."
Liu Yingyao adjusted her mood, bowed lightly to Elder Qi and said, "Elder Qi, let me explain the situation here..."
Elder Qi didn't care about the situation of the spirit stones on the island and the death of the personnel, he just opened his mouth and asked a little before revealing it. On the contrary, he asked about the magic circle similar to the blood sacrifice and the mysterious monk in great detail.
From the appearance of the body to the shape of the magic weapon used and the characteristics of the exercises, they are all asked repeatedly.
But Liu Yingyao subconsciously didn't understand what the other party said when she saw the secret method she used.
Twirling a strand of black hair on her forehead behind her ears, Liu Yingyao had a serious expression on her face: "In addition, the corpse of the deacon elder, who contained a trace of devilish energy, sank under the cracks in the ground now, but because of the devilish energy Ying Yiming and I have no way to bring it up."
"Demon energy?" A strange look flashed across Elder Qi's face: "I'll check the magic circle book carefully."
Then he looked at Liu Yingyao's face, took out a two-inch jade bottle and handed it over: "There is a three-element return-to-one pill in the bottle, which can help you recover your vitality and mana."
"Thank you, elder."
'There are still five days. When Elder Qi went to the magic circle, Liu Yingyao's voice transmission made Liu Yingyao's heart tremble: Time is running out, I need to hurry up and recover.
Then she found a secluded place on the island, and took advantage of the Sanyuan Guiyi Pill to recover as quickly as possible, and did not finish breath adjustment until noon the next day.
"Yingyao..." Ying Yiming, who felt a killing intent gathering, quickly changed his words: "Senior Sister, you seem to be much better today."
"The effect of the Three Elements Guiyi Pill is indeed very good." At this moment, 'Liu Yingyao' looked a little more bloody than yesterday, and she couldn't help muttering in her heart: In the future, I must find a way to prepare more healing medicines on my body just work.
"Elder Qi has arrived here now, so let's return to the sect immediately."
"Brother Ying, you should go back to the sect first and report back, I still have something to do."
"Since that's the case, Senior Sister, be careful in everything."
Liu Yingyao nodded, and the spiritual light all over her body flashed soaring into the sky, flying away towards Xianyun Jedi.
At this moment, there is a person sitting cross-legged in a small magic circle in a simple stone room near the inner area of Xianyun Jedi.
The man had a bald head and a burly figure. He was the mysterious man who fought against Zhang Ziliang and Ying Yiming on Baimai Island last night.
The magic circle under him is a small-scale spirit-gathering formation, but at this moment, what is condensed in the magic circle is not spiritual power but wisps of magic energy. With the infusion of Qi, slowly move towards the later stage!
