Li Yan looked at the blood-red grass on the back of his hand and still felt a little uneasy.
Now that he has the map, he must stay away from this place. The methods of the Yuanying monster are beyond his ability to guess.
Not long after, in the south of Yunguan City, two figures broke through the air and flew towards the southeast.
South of Yunguan City is a vast and endless primeval forest. Because of its geographical location, it forms a second line of defense to block the Tianlan cultivators.
The forest is endless, and even for a monk it would take a long time to fly. If we were to intercept them here, it would be a perfect battlefield.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the early autumn noon was still sultry. This was the fourth day since Li Yan left Yunguan City.
Along the way, Li Yan stayed awake all the time and summoned the "Cloud-Piercing Willow" again. He kept changing directions along the way.
It was not until half a day ago that the blood-red grass on the back of his hand completely disappeared, but he still flew rapidly for another half a day, changing direction three times on the way.
Only then did Li Yan stop, and he released his spiritual sense again without reservation, sweeping around.
Below are clusters of undulating treetops, like a colorful carpet, and the red, green or golden leaves form beautiful landscapes.
It's just that the rotten branches and leaves that have accumulated over the years, blown by the mountain breeze, give off a withered smell, lingering at the tip of the nose, giving people a feeling of loneliness and emptiness.
Li Yan and his companions were suspended on top of a tree canopy. There were many monsters in this forest, and Li Yan could sense the aura of several third-level monsters.
Floating so high in the air, it is easy to become a target of attack, so you'd better be careful with everything.
"The aura of the 'Life Chaser' has completely dissipated. We are about 100,000 miles away from Yunguan City. We should be fine!"
Li Yan looked around. He had been wandering around these past few days, and the straight-line distance between him and Yunguan City was actually not too far.
Then, he waved his hand, and an old man's figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Senior, where is this?"
When the old man Cang appeared, he was a little confused at first, but then he subconsciously looked around vigilantly.
When he saw clearly the people in front of him, Li Yan and Zhao Min, his face immediately showed respect. It was Aguxi.
However, after he secretly glanced around, he became a little dazed. The scenery here was something he had never seen in his first half of life. It was so unique and strange.
Since they were born, these members of the Giant Tree Clan have only seen large areas of wild grass and some scattered trees. They turn green and then yellow, and then yellow and then green again, year after year, day after day.
I have never seen such a dense, tall and endless primeval forest. For a moment, my eyes were not enough.
Aguxi even had a desire in his heart to run freely among the "big trees" below, roaring and breathing to his heart's content.
As soon as this thought arose, he tried his best to suppress it.
"We have already arrived at the territory of Tingyun Country. It is very unlikely that Tianlan Clan cultivators will appear here again!"
Li Yan gave a simple explanation.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior!"
Aguxi had already guessed it from the environment he had never seen before, but when Li Yan said it himself, he was still very happy.
"Okay, I got a map too, come and take a look!"
Not long after, Aguxi withdrew his spiritual consciousness from the jade map, and a blush appeared on his wrinkled old face.
"Senior, this is roughly the same as what the clan leader once said. Some of the place names in the Que Ling Pagoda area are what the clan leader once mentioned. That place should be correct!!"
"That's fine. I asked you to come out just to confirm it, so as to avoid mistakes and delays! By the way, is it possible that the 'wood elf pool' you mentioned has dried up?"
After Li Yan received the jade slip, he suddenly asked again.
"Absolutely not, the Wood Spirit Pool is the most important heritage site for my Giant Wood Clan.
According to the old clan leader, the Wanzai Spiritual Tree is a sacred object of our clan. As long as the Giant Tree Clan exists, it will always survive. When the Wanzai Spiritual Tree withers one day, that will be the day when the Giant Tree Clan falls apart! ! "
When Aguxi mentioned the ten thousand year old spiritual wood, his face immediately showed a very serious expression, and Li Yan nodded when he saw this.
"It seems that the Ten Thousand Years Spiritual Wood is a sacred object like the totem of the Giant Tree Clan!"
He felt a little relieved about this, but at the same time he was still prepared to not be able to enter the "Wood Spirit Pool".
First, even if Aguxi and the others returned to the Giant Tree Clan, they might not be treated well by the existing clan members, let alone himself.
Secondly, since Aguxi said that the "Wood Spirit Pool" is useful for Nascent Soul cultivators, and it is a sacred object of the Giant Wood Clan, its importance can be imagined. It is not a simple matter for him and Zhao Min to enter.
However, as long as he can improve his own cultivation, even if it is just a slight opportunity, Li Yan will strive for it. He now urgently needs to strengthen his own strength.
When he thought about the scene where there was a top-grade spirit stone in front of him and he would have to see a mountain of treasure but return empty-handed, Li Yan felt a strong desire in his heart.
Li Yan had discussed this with Zhao Min before.
Once the Giant Tree Clan's "Wood Spirit Pool" still exists, if the other party hides it and refuses to allow them to use it, as long as the other party does not have a Nascent Soul cultivator, they will try to get it by force.
But the probability of this happening is less than 10%. After all, even Aguxi knows that something that can attract the attention of a Nascent Soul cultivator would have been snatched away long ago if there were no Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the clan.
This is Li Yan’s worst-case scenario, but there is another possibility.
It is not known whether the Giant Wood Clan has a Nascent Soul now, but they must have had one in the past. When that Nascent Soul ascended to heaven or was about to pass away, it is very likely that they cast a spell to hide themselves when they saw that the inheritance could not be protected.
No one can predict what will happen in this world. "Okay, I estimate that we will be able to reach there in six days at most, so you can just stay outside!"
Li Yan saw Aguxi's endless desire for the surrounding scenery, so he did not put it into the spirit storage bag.
At the same time, Li Yan would not fly at full speed for the rest of the journey, and he also needed a good rest.
However, even so, with the speed of "Chuanyunliu", it should be able to fly to the area of Queling Tower in six days at least.
Upon hearing this, Aguxi's face showed great joy. He had never had such relaxing time, nor had he ever seen such beautiful scenery.
Everything around him made him not want to take his eyes away for even a moment, he just wanted to possess it all greedily.
However, after listening to Li Yan's words, he first moved his gaze away with difficulty, with a hint of hesitation on his face.
"Senior, could you please notify Ai Sang and the others as well? I'm afraid they'll be worried..."
As he spoke, his eyes looked at the two spirit storage bags on Li Yan's waist.
"How about this, I'll open my soul storage bag, and you go in and inform your tribesmen that they are safe. Of course, they will believe what you say more.
In addition, I will also take Aisang and Aini out later, but only the three of you. The others can only endure in there for another five or six days. It is not good to have a large number of mortals and low-level monks appearing here."
As Li Yan spoke, the openings of the two spirit storage bags on his waist glowed brightly and opened automatically.
His two spirit storage bags are not comparable to the ancient spirit storage bag on Zhao Min's waist. If all the people of the Giant Wood Clan are put in one of them, it will seem very crowded.
Li Yan would naturally not expose the two spirit storage bags.
A smile suddenly appeared on Aguxi's face, and his consciousness immediately sank into a spirit storage bag.
Ten breaths later, Aini and Aisan appeared on the "Cloud-Piercing Willow". It only took Aguxi a short time to pacify his people, who were already crying for joy.
Those tribesmen have been living on the brink of life and death for years, and have long developed the habit of not questioning Aguxi's words at all. They obey his orders and never ask any extra questions.
Otherwise, what awaits them the next moment will be being abandoned by their own people and being ruthlessly slaughtered by the Tianlan cultivators.
There were still traces of surprise and tears on the faces of Aini and Aisan, but once they took in the autumn scenery around them, they could no longer look away.
They didn't even look at Li Yan and Zhao Min again, as if there was a steel knife on their necks at this moment, they would only linger deeply in this last look.
Li Yan didn't care about this, because after Aguxi bowed deeply to the two of them, he turned his gaze to the surroundings.
"let's go!"
Li Yan smiled at Zhao Min, and Zhao Min's face showed a hint of tenderness. She looked at the silly looks of Aini and the others, and then nodded.
Li Yan lightly tapped the "Cloud-piercing Willow" with his toes, and in a flash, it broke through the air and flew away.
At the same time, purple and white light flashed twice beside him, and Zi Kun and Qian Ji also appeared. Li Yan did not forget his promise to the two monsters.
It’s just that Zi Kun’s cultivation level is now hidden at the middle stage of foundation building. Unless a cultivator in the late Jindan stage investigates carefully, it is difficult to discover his true cultivation level.
This is Li Yan’s request to Zi Kun, just to keep a trump card.
Zi Kun certainly couldn't achieve something as amazing as the "Guishui Sutra", but with Li Yan and Zhao Min standing by their side, how could they easily let others take a close look at them
"Mr. Mosquito is coming out! Damn, why is there still a stink? Hey, why do these people look like beggars..."
Qianji took a deep breath as soon as he came out. Now he had already learned some habits from Zikun. As long as he was not in his own clan, he would transform into a young man in white.
He felt that the little egg was able to communicate with its master more conveniently because it had transformed into a human form, so of course he had to do the same.
Let the master feel closer after seeing similar beings of the same species.
As soon as he came out, he took a deep breath, and immediately his nose was filled with the freshness of the space~~~and a bad smell.
He immediately glanced over and saw three people standing not far away. They were tall and thin, like long bamboo poles.
The three men were dressed in tattered clothes, which were already covered with thick blood and dirt stains, and a foul smell was slowly wafting from them.
The three men turned a deaf ear to his words and stared at the dense forest passing by below.
Qianji followed the gaze of the three people and did not see anything wrong. There were only some low-level monsters roaring below, and then the roars were left far behind.
Those monsters were very afraid of the pressure emanating from Li Yan and Zhao Min. At most, they just roared a few times and did not dare to attack from a distance. They posed no threat to them at all.
After looking for a while, Qianji turned his head in confusion.
"Hey, Master Kun, what are they doing? Where did the master and his wife find these beggars?"
As he said these words, he secretly glanced at Li Yan and Zhao Min in front of him, but the two of them turned a deaf ear to his words.
But when Zhao Min heard the word "Master's Wife", her feet under her long skirt moved slightly.
She is still hiding her stunning beauty and looks like an ordinary woman, so she won't attract too much attention.
But these two monsters have seen his true face, as Qianji secretly said in his heart.
"The master has ruined a good woman again!
Seeing that Li Yan and the other two had no intention of explaining, he could only turn his attention back to Zi Kun.
"I don't know either. The last time we came out to fight, we didn't see these guys!
Is there anything threatening or strange down there now? It's really strange!"
