Li Yan acted too calmly, causing the water ghost-like monster to struggle in its heart for several times, but in the end it did not dare to take action.
But he also has his bottom line. If Li Yan had said just now that he wanted to explore his cave, then he would definitely take action.
"Could this person be an enemy of the Feng family? Recently, the Feng family has been attacked severely by the ghosts in the tombs. It is very likely that the enemy took the opportunity to find the door."
The water ghost-like monster squatted on the reef for a while. He stroked his chin and thought about Li Yan's origins, and at the same time thought of the situation of the Feng family.
Of course he knew about the continuous battles and big commotion over there in recent days, but he couldn't use his spiritual sense to investigate all the time.
Otherwise it will arouse suspicion from the two foundation-building cultivators of the Feng family. As a foundation-building cultivator, why are you always staring at this side? Do you have any ill intentions
So he was not aware of the arrival of Fang Guangjun and others.
"Should we notify the Feng family?"
The two ancestors of the Feng family actually had a good relationship with him. They would occasionally come over to discuss philosophy with him, and the two sides had a certain degree of friendship.
Although the monster that looked like a water ghost had this intention, he felt a chill in his heart when he thought of Li Yan's emotionless look just now.
"Forget it. Less trouble is worse than more. If we were sure we could deal with this man, we would have taken action just now. Whether the Feng family will be blessed or cursed is determined by fate."
He quickly suppressed this thought and then looked towards a certain place, as if he wanted to see the situation over there through the lake.
"Attracted by murderous aura? Humph, even I wouldn't believe it.
However, there are only a bunch of abandoned and useless things there, which are not very meaningful to this person. What exactly is he looking for?"
The water ghost-like monster stroked its smooth chin and fell into deep thought.
At this time, Li Yan finally reached the bottom of the lake. After he sank again, no monsters came to attack him.
Even if a monster appeared near him, it would just take a look at him and then swim away.
At the bottom of the lake, all you see are ruins, which appear blurry and unreal in the water.
Li Yan stood at the bottom of the lake, feeling the murderous intent coming towards him. His mind seemed to be filled with all kinds of screams, some passionate, some resentful, and some shrill.
“Kill, kill, kill!”
"Kill them all, don't let anyone escape!"
"You lowly creatures are offending the majesty of heaven. Go to hell..."
"Kill all of you ants..."
For a moment, Li Yan felt as if countless shadows were rushing towards him, causing his mind to waver.
He just stared ahead, letting the murderous intent pass by. As the spiritual power in his body circulated, his sea of consciousness suddenly became clear.
"Is this... an ancient battlefield?"
Li Yan quickly searched with his spiritual sense, but did not find the aura he had sensed before. Instead, he saw many broken guns, swords, shields and other things that were flashing with weak spiritual power.
Even though these things are soaked in water, they still emit colorful lights. Among the ruins, the reflection of the lake bottom is colorful, which looks magnificent and weird.
The next moment, Li Yan took a step forward, walking in the interweaving of bizarre colors, moving forward all the way.
As he walked, he stretched out his hand and waved, and a tattered yellow flag flew out from the mud with a "whoosh", making the lake water turbid and rushing out mud and sand.
When I picked up the flag, I found that the yellow color was no longer bright. The flag was tattered, with only the pattern of the back half of a body embroidered on it.
Because half of the flag was missing, Li Yan couldn't tell what kind of demon or monster it was from this half of its body.
Judging from its two hind legs, it feels like the body of a tiger or a lion.
When was this battlefield? And what races were involved in this war
Li Yan was thinking in his mind, he couldn't figure out the reason from the pattern on the flag.
The bottom of the lake is a huge battlefield covering hundreds of miles. Judging from the surrounding environment alone, this place should have been formed after the passage of time, and not by someone using supernatural powers.
Moreover, Li Yan has not reached the level of someone who can achieve such a level, so he doesn’t know what kind of cultivation is needed to achieve this.
The half-broken flag in his hand was a low-level spiritual weapon. Through the slow flow of spiritual power on it, Li Yan could guess that if the flag was intact, it should at least be a magical weapon.
The spiritual power in his hand began to slowly flow into the flag, and the yellow color on the flag became brighter and brighter.
As the color of the flag deepened, some of the invisible murderous intent in the surrounding area actually pounced on the flag and circled around it, as if guarding it.
To some extent, murderous intent is a kind of consciousness, but it contains deep resentment or obsession rather than normal thoughts.
With the infusion of spiritual power, the flag in his hand became brighter and brighter.
Just after five breaths, the big flag in Li Yan's hand turned bright yellow, and suddenly collapsed into starlight, and merged into the lake the next moment.
The murderous intent that was originally swirling around the big flag paused for a moment, and then turned violent.
The next moment, they rushed towards Li Yan's sea of consciousness like crazy, determined to kill the person who destroyed the flag in front of them.
Li Yan didn't care about these. He just snorted lightly and released his powerful spiritual sense.
Before the murderous intent could reach his body, a scream came out of his consciousness, and the fingers that pounced in front of Li Yan turned into invisible air and disappeared in an instant.
After feeling that Li Yan's spiritual consciousness was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, the murderous intent in the back let out unwilling roars, and after circling for several times, they finally began to slowly retreat.
Although the killing intent here was strong, it was not too strong. Li Yan had expected this. Otherwise, even the water ghost-like monster would not be able to survive in this lake. Not to mention the low-level water monsters, whose sea of consciousness had been shattered by the killing intent and turned into puppets that only knew how to kill.
Looking at the scattered flag in his hand, Li Yan did not stop, but stretched out his hand again while walking.
A broken silver spear that was inserted diagonally into the lush water plants flew into Li Yan's hands after making a "buzzing" sound.
As soon as he got the broken spear, Li Yan did not hesitate this time. He poured his spiritual power into it, and the silver light on the broken spear immediately became brighter.
But it took only about three breaths. With a crisp "bang" sound, the broken spear turned into a point of light again, and then merged into the water, becoming invisible.
“As expected, it must have been deposited for too long. Not only has the grade been dropping, but the material has also decayed and can no longer bear too much spiritual energy.
Although there are only some broken weapons here, they are weapons used by cultivators after all, and they still have a fatal temptation to some low-level cultivators.
It is somewhat unreasonable to be treated like a worn-out shoe like this.
Even though there is a water ghost-like monster occupying this place, there are countless cultivators stronger than him.
They can take it back for their own Qi Condensation disciples to use, or even melt it down and refine it in the furnace again. At least they can get a lot of refining materials.
It turns out that these broken things are just gilded.”
When Li Yan first saw the broken weapons and equipment emitting faint spiritual power all over the ground, he felt something was wrong. In his opinion, these things had no value at all and he would not accept them even if they were given to him.
But for some small sects, this is also a huge fortune. It is too strange that it is left here in such a large area. After a test, it is indeed waste.
Just as Li Yan was observing the environment here, a hidden divine sense quietly appeared not far away.
The big man that Li Yan transformed into suddenly turned his head and looked in one direction, sneering "hehe" from his mouth, but then continued to walk forward.
In an underwater cave, the monster that looked like a water ghost suddenly withdrew its spiritual sense. He was extremely surprised. This time he was finally sure that the other party was the person he could not afford to offend.
"What a strong spiritual sense! He discovered it the moment he touched it.
However, with a quick glance, one could tell that this person must be coming to the 'Thousand Mountains Ancient Battlefield' for the first time, and he was testing those useless things.
Fortunately, fortunately, since he has no intention of coming over, just let him do something. There is nothing good there anyway.
This person's cultivation is really hard to tell. If I continue to investigate, I might anger him."
The monster that looked like a water ghost decided to ignore Li Yan. Anyway, he had been to the "Thousand Mountains Ancient Battlefield" countless times, and there was nothing that could catch his eye.
Li Yan walked under the water where the lights were intertwined. Seeing that the other party knew what was going on and did not release his spiritual sense again, Li Yan snorted lightly.
This situation is the best. Although he can easily kill the monster, it will still attract the attention of others after the monster's breath disappears.
He just came to check some things, as long as no one disturbed him.
After walking for a while, Li Yan frowned. The aura never appeared again.
Then Li Yan stopped, closed his eyes and stood there motionless, as if he was asleep.
After nearly an incense stick of time had passed, Li Yan suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then his figure quickly shuttled through the water.
Various faint spiritual rays passed over Li Yan one by one. Under the distortion of the water, Li Yan, who was moving, shuttled through mottled light and shadows, and his figure appeared real and illusory.
Li Yan simply ignored the various low- and medium-level spiritual weapons that appeared under his feet from time to time.
This ancient battlefield in the water is really huge. After Li Yan walked forward for more than a hundred miles, a large patch of algae and weeds appeared in front of him.
These long weeds dancing in the water occupied Li Yan's entire field of vision, as if they were endless.
Li Yan did not stop and flew straight towards the weeds.
But as soon as he approached the weeds, the long leaf stems, which were originally swaying like dancing, suddenly became like whips and lashed towards Li Yan with a rapid shake.
For a while, there were continuous and dense "hissing" sounds, making the leaf stems seem unusually strong. Even being in the water did not affect the speed of these leaf stems.
Li Yan had already put up a spiritual power shield, and for a moment, it was like rain hitting a banana leaf, with continuous "pa pa pa..." sounds.
After feeling it for a while, Li Yan discovered that there was a hint of burning in the attack of these weeds, which made him feel something was moving.
If these burning sensations were to invade the body of a cultivator in the Qi Condensation Stage, their spiritual power would boil over and become uncontrollable in a moment.
But Li Yan turned a blind eye to this and allowed the weeds to attack his body while he continued to move forward quickly.
Soon, he stopped in front of a tuft of weeds.
Without any delay, Li Yan lightly waved his hand, and the weeds attacking him from all sides were swept away as if by a sharp blade. In an instant, the grass leaves flew everywhere, and the broken stems and leaves were lifted off the ground.
The large patches of weeds that were attacking him suddenly became rootless, floating in one direction, either horizontally or vertically, along with the water flow.
Just after Li Yan swung his hand, the weeds in Li Yan's consciousness actually made a "yiya" sound, as if they were screaming in pain.
After the palm wind caused a surge of water, a patch of sand and several tufts of weed roots appeared under Li Yan's feet.
Li Yan glanced around and soon his eyes stopped at one place where there was a clump of weeds with dense roots. After the leaf stems were cut off by Li Yan, a large cluster of roots that looked like a hedgehog were exposed underneath.
It occupies an area as large as a tabletop, and it was also the cluster of weeds that Li Yan felt was the most ferocious in the attack just now.
"right here!"
Li Yan's eyes lit up.
