Chapter 99: Ride the Earth Spirit (6000)
underground in Yangyan City.
Li Yuan and Li Yunqing followed Qian Yunpeng's instructions and chose the right passage when they encountered a fork in the road.
Now, they didn't know how many forks there were in front of them, so they still chose the passage on the right.
Entering the passage, walking for almost three hundred feet, we finally reached the end.
At this time, they had been walking underground for six or seven hours.
A yellow rope hanging as thin as a little finger came into view under the illumination of the moonstone.
Following Qian Yunpeng's method, Li Yuan stepped forward and pulled the lanyard with his hand.
After a while, a hole the size of a bowl appeared in the wall.
He handed in the badge given by Qian Yunpeng.
"Boom!"
The wall trembled a few times and moved slowly, and soon a half-foot-wide stone staircase leading upward appeared in front of them.
Slowly go up the stone staircase and walk more than a hundred steps before reaching the top.
After exiting the passage, there is a living room connected to the bedroom. The furnishings in the house are very simple. An ordinary house is extremely tidy and someone should clean it regularly.
The two looked around and found no one.
Opening the door, the sunset poured in.
The courtyard is not big and there is only one well in the courtyard.
Arriving in the courtyard, Li Yuan looked up at the fiery clouds in the sky and let out a long breath.
"Xiao Yuanzi, are you tired? Let's take a rest here."
Li Yunqing saw that there was still a pale look on Li Yuan's face.
"I'm not tired." Li Yuan shook his head gently, "This should be not far from the Flight Transport Plaza. If the Ma family notices that we are not at the duel site, they will make arrangements soon. To avoid long nights and dreams, we should leave the city first."
"Yeah." Li Yunqing nodded.
When he walked to the door, Li Yuan saw several bamboo hats hanging beside the courtyard wall, and took two of them easily.
After putting on a bamboo hat and covering his face, Li Yuan opened the courtyard door with confidence and walked out. Li Yunqing followed closely.
There is a small river outside the courtyard gate. Standing by the guardrail by the river, he looked around, carefully identified the direction, pointed to the right, and whispered: "Little aunt, let's go this way." Hearing this,
Li Yunqing raised his eyebrows. The hat was slightly moved forward.
The two walked along the river for nearly two miles and came to the street.
After crossing the main street and passing through several small streets, we arrived at a giant square in the northeastern area of Yangyan City, the Flying Transportation Plaza of Yangyan City.
There are three reddish-brown giant flying beasts with pavilions built on their backs on the square, and there are dozens of white flying beasts about ten feet long at their feet.
Comparing the two, they are like ants and elephants.
They are all earth spirits, a type of monster.
Most earth spirits have a gentle personality and are easily tamed by animal trainers. The level of the earth spirit is already determined when it is born, and it is usually impossible to break through the inherent level of its own bloodline race.
Those giant flying beasts are giant-winged birds, which are second-level earth spirits. They are huge in size, usually more than a hundred feet in length, usually reddish brown in color, have pavilions built on their backs, and have many rooms, making them especially suitable for long journeys.
The flying speed of the giant-winged bird is not very fast. It can fly about a hundred miles in one hour, but it can fly continuously for at least three days and three nights at a time, so it is the most economical and affordable means of transportation.
The white flying beast at the feet of the giant-winged bird is the Snow Cloud Eagle. It is a second-level earth spirit like the giant-winged bird. It is usually only more than ten feet long and is mostly white.
The Snow Cloud Eagle's flight speed is faster. It can fly about three hundred miles in one hour and can fly continuously for five hours, so it is suitable for short-distance flights. If you want to fly a long distance, you can only go to the next flight transportation square and transfer to other snow cloud sculptures.
Li and Yuan took off their hats, walked into the square, and found a guy from the flight transport team to get a rough idea of the price of riding the flying beast.
The flight route of the Giant Winged Bird is fixed, and it will only stop in two cities along the way. For places that cannot be reached, you can take the Giant Winged Bird that can be reached in other cities.
Regardless of the distance, each stop requires thirty low-grade Yuan stones.
Taking the Giant Wing Bird, there are spacious rooms for rest, but the route is fixed and the speed is too slow.
Snow Cloud Eagle has no fixed route and flies directly to the destination. It can carry up to five people at a time. Regardless of the length of time, there is a flat fee, two middle-grade Yuan stones at a time.
Li Yuan looked up at the sky, and it was completely dark.
When they saw the long queue under the giant winged bird, Li and Yuan looked shocked.
Now if you want to ride the Giant Winged Bird, you need to go to a special ticket sales place to buy tickets, and there is also a long queue there.
Both of them shook their heads helplessly. The cost of riding a flying beast was so high, yet so many people still took it.
The waiter next to me often chats with the guests. He is very smart. He smiled slyly and said: "You two, if you are not going very far, you can sit on the Snow Cloud Sculpture." "Snow Cloud Sculpture? Don't you need to queue?" Li
Yunqing Hearing this, he asked softly.
The waiter responded: "If you ride the Snow Cloud Sculpture, you don't need to queue, and you can save a lot of time. If you pay the full fee, you can ride directly." After some discussion, the two finally decided to ride the
Snow Cloud Sculpture.
"Okay, I'll call the Snow Cloud Eagle to you two right away."
This is another business, with a lot of commission, and the waiter's face is filled with joy.
When the waiter went to call the Snow Cloud Eagle, Li Yuan and Li Yuan waited quietly on the spot, while their eyes scanned the Yuan Zhe in the square with vigilance.
Suddenly, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in Li Yuan's sight, attracting his attention.
The taller one is a middle-aged woman wearing a dark red dress with some gray on her temples.
The man next to him, who is half a head shorter, looks a little older, but his figure still shows that he was a strong man when he was young. He is wearing a red lotus pattern and gold thread robe, with a tiger pattern horn belt tied around his waist.
It wasn't the appearance of those two people that caught Li Yuan's attention, but the fluctuations of Yuan Power emanating from them.
Others may not be able to see the cultivation of these two people, but they cannot escape the soul power detection of Li Yuanwang. They are all in the early stage of Yuandan realm.
The Yuan Dan realm is not unusual in Yangyan City, but appearing here together at this time is definitely not an accident.
There were thousands of Yuan practitioners in the square, but they were the only two Yuan Dan realm experts.
At this time, Li Yunqing followed Li Yuan's gaze and glanced over. She felt that the two of them were somewhat familiar, and she must have met them somewhere before.
She recalled carefully, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, a look of panic appeared on her pretty face, and she whispered: "Xiao Yuanzi, those two are the elders of the Ma family, the middle-aged woman is Lu Qizhen, and the short old man is Gu Nian. Hearing this
, Li Yuan was also surprised. It was indeed the same as the scroll given by Qian Yingke, and then comforted: "Little aunt, don't be nervous, they haven't discovered us yet. Wait until the guy calls the Snow Cloud Eagle, Let's go."
After a short wait, the man appeared in front of them with the Snow Cloud Sculpture.
Since it was his first time to operate the Earth Spirit, Li Yuan briefly asked the clerk about the operation method.
Controlling the Snow Cloud Sculpture is very simple. All you need to do is release your soul power, establish a connection with the Snow Cloud Sculpture's soul, and form a temporary contract.
This temporary contract can only be established for a maximum of five hours, because the final contract is in the hands of the animal tamer.
Once the time has passed, the contract is automatically terminated.
After the Snow Cloud Eagle recovers its vitality, it will automatically find a route and return to its original place.
Li Yuan gave the man three middle-grade Yuan stones, and the extra one was naturally given to him, which made the man ecstatic.
After looking at Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian, Li Yuan touched the Snow Cloud Sculpture, and then released his soul power to establish contact with the Snow Cloud Sculpture.
With a little force on his feet, he jumped onto the back of the Snow Cloud Eagle, and then stretched out his hand towards Li Yunqing. The latter touched the ground with his feet, and at the same time stretched out his slender hand to grab Li Yuan's extended palm.
Li Yuan pulled Li Yunqing onto the Snow Cloud Eagle's back, sat behind him, and then gently patted the Snow Cloud Eagle to communicate with it.
The Snow Cloud Eagle suddenly spread its wings, and suddenly a gust of wind blew up.
At this time, Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian were looking around for something.
"Gu Nian, we have been walking around here for several hours, but we haven't found any trace of those two people. Are they still in the contract duel arena?" Lu Qizhen touched a strand of hair next to her ear.
"I don't know." Hearing this, Gu Nian patted his belly, shook his head, and then complained, "Although we were given a lot of Yuan Stone, it was too hard. If we can really catch those two people, We have to give the Ma family a hard blow.
"The elders of the Ma family are really cowardly. They treat us like dogs. There is no trace of elders at all. They are just like coolies." "
Lu Qizhen was relatively calm, with an indifferent attitude: "Whatever, as long as the Ma family gives more yuan stones. If the Yuan Stone is missing, I don't mind having the identity of Elder Keqing. "
After saying that, she turned her head and saw the strong wind caused by the Snow Cloud Eagle not far away. There were two young figures on her back. She said with some envy: "I don't know which young lady it is, but there are only two people riding it. Xueyun Diao, it seems that his clan is also quite a powerful force. "
Hearing this, Gu Nian followed Lu Qizhen's gaze, was startled, and suddenly said excitedly: "Which clan, that's Li Yuan and Li Yunqing, hurry up, they're getting mad now. "
Li Yuan and Li sat on the back of the Snow Cloud Sculpture. As the latter flapped its wings, it let out a long cry and soared into the sky. After a circle, it shot straight into the sky like lightning. The huge Snow Cloud Sculpture flashed in an instant
. In the meantime, it turned into a white dot and flew towards the sky.
Li Yunqing, who was on the back of the Snow Cloud Eagle, was surprised and excited.
The two of them opened their arms at the same time and shouted happily.
Looking down at the earth, the sound of wind whistling past the ears was exciting.
" Xiao Yuanzi, shall we go to Qingzhai City now? "Li Yunqing shouted loudly.
"Yeah. "Li Yuan nodded, then looked back at Li Yunqing, "We should be able to reach Qingzhai City by flying one thousand two hundred miles east. Little aunt, look. "
Finally, Li Yuan pointed to the back.
"So beautiful! "Li Yunqing turned his head and shouted excitedly.
In the sea of clouds, half of the setting sun was exposed, emitting golden light and revealing a touch of red. It was so beautiful that people couldn't help but admire it. The two people
on the back of the Snow Cloud Sculpture admired the intertwining with the sea of clouds. The beautiful sunset.
Suddenly, a tiny black spot appeared on the sunset, approaching them very quickly.
"What is that?" Li Yunqing asked, pointing to the black spot.
Li Yuan also noticed the black spot. Within a few breaths, the black spot in front of the sunset turned into a slightly larger white shadow.
Due to the sunset light, it was somewhat unclear.
"It should also be a snow cloud sculpture, there seems to be two people on it. "Li Yuan looked at the enlarged white shadow.
Li Yunqing said slightly curiously: "I didn't expect that there would be someone in the same direction as us so late. Don't know where they are going?
"No, it's Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian we just saw at the flight square. " Li Yuan's expression froze, "We should have been discovered." "
Hearing this, a trace of panic appeared on Li Yunqing's cheeks, and he asked anxiously: "Xiao Yuanzi, what should I do? They are all Yuan Dan realm powerhouses.
"It's okay. They should be three or four miles away from us now, far away. " They are all Snow Cloud Eagles, so as long as you keep your distance, you'll be fine. At night, we looked for a forest and hid, but they couldn't find it that easily. "Li Yuan stared at the two people chasing behind him and said.
He turned to look forward, patted the Snow Cloud Eagle with his hand, and shouted: "Snow Cloud Eagle, our lives depend on you, fly quickly. . "
With a shout, the Snow Cloud Eagle under the two men flapped its wings violently, increased its speed, and headed straight to the east. The
white shadow tracking behind did not shorten the distance, but it did not widen it either. , followed closely.
Looking from below, in the gradually darkening sky, the two huge snow cloud sculptures are just two small white dots, slowly gliding high in the sky.
"Snow cloud sculpture, fly a little higher. "Li Yuan shouted silently in his heart.
This beast was all white. Li Yuan decided to enter the clouds. He could use the white clouds to hide himself, and then wait for an opportunity to change the flight direction.
Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian were only in the early stages of the Yuan Dan realm, not alchemists. For special professions such as treasure refiners, the soul realm is usually only the condensation realm. Moreover, the soul power is not strong. It is usually only in the early stage of the condensation realm, and the soul power detection ability and range are far lower than Li Yuan. As the Yuan's cultivation level improves
, The soul realm will also be improved accordingly.
The spiritual realm of Yuanli realm is the mortal realm, the soul realm corresponding to the virtual realm is the true realm, and the Yuandan realm is the condensation realm. If the soul power
has not been specially cultivated, it is usually only in every The early stage of the first realm.
The Snow Cloud Sculpture flew higher and higher, and soon two small white dots rushed into the clouds and disappeared into the sea of clouds.
The sky became darker and darker. A quarter of an hour passed, two quarters of an hour passed, and three quarters of an hour passed. The clock passed...
I don't know how many clouds the Snow Cloud Eagle passed through, and Li Yuan and Li Yuan began to be covered by some frost.
"Xiao Yuanzi, I'm so cold, will we freeze to death in the clouds." Li Yunqing asked in a weak and trembling voice.
Li Yuan hugged Li Yunqing tightly and comforted: "Don't worry, we won't die." "
Now we are almost more than four hundred miles away from Yangyan City. Such a long distance has been shuttled among the clouds. The surrounding temperature has dropped to the extreme, making their bodies a little stiff. The whistling wind made their ears tremble
. Somewhat deaf.
Li Yuan and Li Yunqing didn't know where they were below now, but they were just flying all the way east. It
was completely white all around, and they couldn't see anything clearly.
They looked back countless times, but there was no movement behind them.
"If we have cultivated enough now It would be great to break through to the Yuan Dan realm. "Li Yunqing looked back with a somewhat stiff movement. As he spoke, he exhaled white mist. His bright eyes were half-open and half-closed, and his long eyelashes were covered with white frost.
Li Yuan used his soul power to detect that Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian had been following closely behind, and their condition did not seem to be affected in any way.
Once a Yuan Zhe breaks through to the Yuan Dan realm, his lifespan will not only increase dramatically, but he will also not be affected by ordinary natural temperature changes.
Even if you stand naked in the ice and snow, you will not feel the slightest bit of cold.
"Xiao Yuanzi, I'm so cold... I'm so sleepy... I really want to sleep for a while." Li Yunqing said in a weak voice.
"Little aunt, don't sleep." Li Yuan shook Li Yunqing anxiously, and suddenly he thought of the scene in the Malan Snow Mountain. "Little aunt, try to guide the vast ice bones in your body to resist or absorb the cold." After hearing this, Li Yunqing began to try to
use The ice-like character of the Hanhai forcefully withstood the harsh low temperatures around it.
Slowly, her sleepiness gradually subsided, her stiff body began to become softer, and her pale and pretty face gained a little more color.
Suddenly, she felt that the seal on the bone in her body was lifted a lot.
The energy between heaven and earth formed countless white bolts, which crazily penetrated Li Yunqing's body and was absorbed by the ice wind bones of the vast sea.
The barrier in the middle stage of the Treading the Void Realm showed no signs of loosening. It was broken through in an instant, and he directly entered the late stage of the Treading the Void Realm, and his cultivation level was still improving.
"Little aunt, stop, your body won't be able to bear it." Li Yuan noticed the change in Li Yunqing's breath and shouted hurriedly.
"I can't control it. The seal on that bone was affected by the energy impact and was loosened a little. It is absorbing the energy between heaven and earth on its own." Li Yunqing said helplessly, with a hint of ferocity on his pretty face.
"Then what should I do?"
"Has the spirit awakened?"
"No, she said she has been sleeping for at least a day."
"Then we can only wait until it has absorbed enough."
"No, your body may be exploded by the surge of power. ." Li Yuan hugged Li Yunqing tightly, all kinds of thoughts switching rapidly in his mind, "Little aunt, please turn around and hug me tightly. I will drop some height and prepare to jump." Hearing this, Li Yunqing was shocked
. , hurriedly said: "Xiao Yuanzi, if we jump like this, we will definitely fall to death." "
When the height is lowered, just hold me tight. My body can resist, it's okay. When we reach the ground, we should be able to solve the problem of Hanhai Bing Feng Gu’s question.
“You’re right to listen to me. Jumping down and letting the Snow Cloud Eagle fly by itself for a while can also distract Lu Qizhen and Gu Nian. Now everyone is riding Snow Cloud Sculptures, and their speeds are about the same. It is more difficult to get rid of them completely. Kill two birds with one stone. "Li Yuan explained.
"Okay, let's jump down. "Li Yunqing thought for a while, and had no better way, so he could only nod vigorously.
Li Yuan explored a towering mountain peak ahead. With the height of the mountain, there shouldn't be much problem.
The Snow Cloud Sculpture dropped rapidly while flying eastward.
Just after passing under the clouds, Li Yuan picked up Li Yunqing, stood on the back of the Snow Cloud Sculpture, overlooking the mountain below, gritted his teeth and said: "Little aunt, I'm ready to jump, hold me tight. "
Li Yuan hugged Li Yunqing tightly, jumped up, and the two of them quickly fell towards the mountain below.
The Snow Cloud Eagle got into the clouds again and continued flying east.
"Little aunt, can you control the energy in your body now? Li Yuan looked at the getting closer and closer mountain peaks and asked, "Even if it's just a tiny bit, try to protect your whole body." "
While the two of them were falling rapidly, Li Yunqing closed his eyes and tried hard to mobilize his energy to move around his body. The
Hanhai Bingfeng Gu, which had been frantically absorbing the energy of the world, seemed to feel the changes around him and became calmer. At this time, Li Yunqing's The body is much warmer and softer.
Li Yuan also uses Yuanli to protect his whole body. He could fly a short distance in the air in the Taoxu realm, but now he is falling too fast, so he can only slow down the speed. With the Yuanli in his
body Running at full speed, a Yuanli spherical shield was built around the two people, and the airflow below was also changing. The
rapidly falling body paused in the air.
Li Yuan tried his best to adjust the direction so as not to hit the ground directly. , but fell to the giant tree on the mountain peak, using the buffer between the branches to minimize the damage.
Getting closer and closer to the top of the mountain, getting closer...
Suddenly, Li Yuan turned around suddenly, turned his back down, and Li Yunqing hugged him tightly.
Even with the Yuanli shield, Li Yunqing's body level could never withstand such an impact.
At the moment when he was about to hit the giant tree, Li Yuan used both hands to push the lying body down without hesitation. The delicate body of his body pushed up.
Feeling a strong push, Li Yunqing suddenly opened his beautiful eyes. What came into view was Li Yuan's handsome face with a faint smile. A cyan figure appeared in the dark eyes, which was rapidly changing. Xiao.
She wanted to catch Li Yuan, but it was too late.
"Xiao Yuanzi. "Li Yunqing stretched out his arms and shouted in a tearful voice.
"Little aunt, listen, don't let yourself get hurt, otherwise we will be found by them and there will be no chance of survival. Don't worry, if you are fine, we can all survive. I'll be fine. "Li Yuan shouted towards Li Yunqing above.
Li Yunqing nodded when he heard
the words. As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuan sank under the branch.
"Whoops! Uh-huh! Uh-huh! "
The sound of branches breaking against each other continued to be heard from the place where Li Yuan disappeared.
Li Yunqing wiped the mist from his eyes with his arm, made a somersault in the air with force, and tapped his jade feet gently in the void, steady The ground fell on the canopy of the tree. At
this moment, the Vast Sea Ice Wind Bone in her body completely quieted down and stopped absorbing the energy between heaven and earth.
After breaking an unknown number of branches, Li Yuan hit the ground heavily, splashing countless drops. Fallen leaves.
Under such an impact, he felt pain all over his body, and his consciousness became a little confused.
Through the faint moonlight, in his hazy vision, he saw a blurry figure from where he fell. The cyan figure was coming towards him.
Gradually, his vision became more and more hazy, and finally he closed his eyes. After an
unknown period of time, a soft voice sounded in his mind.
"Xiao Yuanzi..."
Li Yunqing knelt down Next to Li Yuan, she hugged him tightly and called Li Yuan's name sadly.
The sound of crying wandered in the forest.
Endless tears surged from Li Yunqing's eyes like a flood that broke a bank.
The tears completely blurred her vision. It soaked his cheeks and dripped down his jade cheeks onto Li Yuan's face.
Feeling the constant dripping of tears on his face, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes and stretched out his palms.
Li Yunqing, who was crying, only felt a familiar and... Warm hands weakly wiped the tears on her cheeks.
She suddenly opened her beautiful eyes full of tears, and a pair of familiar eyes were looking at her. Suddenly, her body felt like an electric shock, and her whole body trembled. Overjoyed, he shouted excitedly: "Xiao Yuanzi, you..."
