lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!
The cave where the demon lives fits his impression of those monsters very well,
Words such as twists and turns, darkness, rancidity, etc. seem to have been specially created for this kind of place.
Yu Ci just stood at the corner closest to the entrance of the cave, glanced inside a few times, and then felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but admire the Master Bichao. It really took a lot of courage to go deep into it.
Not far from where he stood, there was the light source.
Yu Ci looked over, and the first thing he saw was a demon. Under the illumination of the light source, he could clearly see that the opponent was only four feet tall and looked very thin. However, seeing its pitch-black skin and sharp and long forelimbs, Yu Ci judged that this person should be a very good person in the dark. A sinister guy who delivers a fatal blow.
But at this time, the demon was already dead. At a glance, there wasn't a single scratch visible on his body. Yu Ci turned the guy over with his toes, revealing a twisted and ugly face with a bit of weird excitement remaining on it.
Not long after the demon died, Yu Ci judged that the demon was probably hiding in the cave. When he saw Bichao entering the cave, he wanted to make a sneak attack, but was instantly killed by the female cultivator. Yu Ci was on the car outside the entrance of the cave. He was very close, but he didn't notice at all. The female cultivator's crisp and quick attack was quite similar to the goal Yu Ci was pursuing. To be honest, he was quite envious.
Yu Ci finally moved his gaze to the light source that attracted him.
The shape of the core of the light source is like a roadside stone, a little smaller than a fingernail. Although the light emitted is familiar, it is difficult to describe. Yu Ci thought for a while and finally found a more accurate expression:
It was like the flash of stars in the night sky.
Looking carefully at this "pebble", Yu Ci felt that it was more like a fragment, or debris would be more accurate. Yu Ci saw a circle of irregular cracks on it, which seemed to be the remnants of a complete object shattered by a huge force.
After watching it for so long, he felt more and more familiar with this thing.
Picking up the crumbs, Yu Ci thought for a moment, then put his consciousness into his storage ring. He thought about where that familiar feeling came from. There was something in the storage ring that gave him the same feeling. It was also a piece of debris, and the light it emitted was no different from the one in my hand.
Yu Ci remembered that the debris in the ring was exactly what he found in the "gap" of the collapsed mountain peak. At that time, this "stone" was also glowing. The light was very different from the blood flames burning in the cave, and that was the reason why Yu Ci picked it up.
Putting the two crumbs in the palm of his hand, Yu Ci felt a little lost as he looked at them shining like stars. This flash of light seemed to have a strange magical power. On the one hand, it attracted his eyeballs, and on the other hand, it triggered some wonderful mechanism. Yu Ci clearly felt a very weak force coming out of his pores and wiping over the debris.
This feeling is no longer unfamiliar.
Yu Ci was sure that he must have absorbed a little bit of the aura remnants of those two people with great supernatural powers. The reason for all this was not only the influx of "Iceberg" information, but also the fact that he had assimilated the energy of Tianlong's true form.
This remnant of aura is like a key, playing an irreplaceable role in developing the value of the objects left behind by the two. This was the case last time when driving the hook and silk ribbon, and it is still the case this time. Yu Ci was even able to tell that the debris should belong to the person opposite the previous owner of the hook and silk sash.
In the palm of my hand, the light of the debris became much dimmer, but there seemed to be a subtle connection between them, just like two magnets, very close to each other, but the magnetic poles on the two opposite sides can switch back and forth. , attract and repel each other.
More importantly, this connection is not limited to his palm, but extends out to touch targets deeper in the cave.
After thinking for a moment, Yu Ci followed the guidance of this connection and walked deeper into the cave. Now he has temporarily controlled his inner restlessness, but it is still stronger than before. Moreover, the object in front of him is closely related to a person with great supernatural powers who stands at the top of this world. Even when he is the calmest, It’s hard to be indifferent to this, even if I’m afraid.
The cave was very quiet, there were no living monsters inside, the ones that appeared were dead, and there was no sign of Bi Chao, so Yu Ci had an unobstructed journey and quickly found his target.
It was in a separate stone chamber, which was a little different from other parts of the cave. It had been deliberately decorated, and there was even a chair carved from stone, covered with thick animal skins, which looked rough. But it is very comfortable. This should be the place where one of the demon leaders lives. However, after the owner was killed a month ago, this place has been idle.
Scanning his gaze around the room, Yu Ci was sure that before he came, Bichao had already visited this place and conducted a search. Fortunately, his target did not attract the attention of the female cultivator.
Yu Ci found them on the four walls of the stone room. These luminous debris are used as night pearls. At this time, it was embedded in the stone wall, and the light it emitted illuminated the entire stone chamber.
It is difficult to understand how the demons collected these debris, but Yu Ci was certain that without the residual aura as a guide, these demons did not discover the wonders of the debris, and he was prepared to accept them all with a smile.
It took some time to take them out, so that Yu Ci had seven such crumbs in his hand.
Seven "star chips" - this is the name that Yu Ci thinks is the most suitable. Put in his hand, they have different shapes and sizes, but the largest one is only equivalent to a corn kernel. They are very close, but if you look closely, there is a gap between them.
Yu Ci tried to piece them together, but failed. After all, they are just debris. Maybe decades ago, they were part of some earth-shattering magic weapon, but now, it is really an impossible task for Yu Ci to restore them to their original appearance.
"What's the use of these things?" Yu Ci shook his palm slightly, letting the seven stardust roll in his palm, always a little distance away, and there was no plan in his heart for a moment.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the stone door. Before that, Yu Ci and the visitor had confirmed each other's identities.
"Master Bichao, is there any gain?"
"There are some." Bichao smiled and floated into the room, as if his feet were not touching the ground. The light-colored silk was like a fresh breath, not stained by dust. There was no trace of the number of kills before. A demon's fierce tactics.
Enter the stone room, the female cultivator looked at Yu Ci's palm. It's not surprising that she was like this, because the seven star fragments were the most eye-catching. It would be hypocritical if she turned a blind eye. There was some curiosity in the female cultivator’s smile:
"This is..."
“I found some gadgets here. They look good, but I don’t know how to use them yet.”
Except for concealing a few elements that are not open to outsiders, Yu Ci is quite candid. Yu Ci was still extremely wary of Bichao and even the Xuanyin and Rakshasa sects behind her, but this did not hinder his personal evaluation of the female cultivators.
Some time ago, Yu Ci was very inspired by Bichao's calm and generous acting style. Sometimes, trust is accumulated bit by bit like this.
Bichao really didn't have any greed. After looking at it carefully, he said: "This is like a material like sunstone, and there are other things mixed in it. It is not naturally generated, maybe it is a fragment of some artifact. ”
The two people had quite similar judgments on the origin of the star chips, and Bichao's knowledge was much richer than that of Yu Ci. As she spoke, she picked up a star chip, rubbed it twice on her fingertips, nodded and said, "Look They are so broken that it is impossible to restore them to their original appearance, but if they are properly disposed of, they can be incorporated into the magic weapon as a key node in the operation of the talisman array, greatly improving the quality of the magic weapon and having a great chance of becoming a top-grade weapon."
Yu Ci nodded, understanding.
The quality of magical instruments can be divided into high and low levels. Although it is generally recognized by the world, the key factor lies in the level of sacrificial refining. However, the innate quality of the magical weapon is, in a sense, decisive.
Compared with a crudely crafted work, no matter how diligently it is refining, it is still difficult to cross the level gap, not to mention the time wasted in refining it. It is definitely not People can easily afford it.
With these seven star fragments, Yu Ci is almost holding the ownership of a high-grade magic weapon. Such a value is not unprecious. And all of this seems to be a bit inferior compared to the origin of these stardust itself.
This time Yu Ci made a profit. He also smiled, put away the stardust, and said thanks: "Thank you, Master, for your guidance."
Bi Chao had finished his work in the cave, and the two of them walked out laughing. Yu Ci asked some more information about the Sunlight Stone and learned more about the Stardust. Seeing those monster corpses again along the way, he asked casually, mostly as a joke:
"Do you still want to lead the way?"
"I want it."
The blue tide swept over the temples lightly, and the small mole on the corner of the lip became more and more active in the smile: "Some clowns are doing stupid things. Although the plan has been disrupted by Fellow Daoist Yu, it seems that some traces have been left. Now we have to do it Just erase these traces."
"Really?"
Yu Ci was a little curious, but didn't ask any more questions. He just smiled and said, "Where are you going now?"
"I just captured a man alive and asked for a location. He said it was on this mountain. What kind of siege place..."
"Oh, I understand."
As for the place of siege, isn't it the place where those demons besieged Gan Shizhen?
