When Xu Jing's attack missed, Yan Qingxi, who was pressed against the stone wall, suddenly flipped her palm. A golden light burst out from her palm, forming a huge golden blade. It suddenly swept towards the area where Xu Jing had just missed.
However, Yan Qingxi's knife still missed and a scream sounded from behind her. A cultivator of the Tan Xi Sect was killed by an invisible killer. Everyone knew nothing about the killer except for a small patch of green cloth.
After Yan Qingxi's attack missed, she had already arrived in the vicinity of Xu Jing. Xu Jing knitted her brows and glanced at her, but did not say anything. Furthermore, she did not attack.
"Can you hear the murderer?" Yan Qingxi's gaze was still on her surroundings, but she was still on guard. However, she asked Xu Jing, who was standing beside her, in a low voice.
"Humph!" Xu Jing coldly snorted but didn't say anything.
Yan Qingxi thought that Xu Jing had already admitted it and said, "Now, we must work together. Otherwise, we will all die here!"
The two cultivators of Heaven Shaking Sect were also gathered together. The five of them stood back to back in a circle, Xu Jing's ears trembling intensely as he listened to the sounds coming from the passageway.
"Is it still there?" Yan Qingxi asked in a low voice.
Xu Jing nodded his head and said, "They have been wandering around us all this time, waiting for an opportunity to make their move. We are trapped!"
Yan Qingxi activated a talisman in her hand and a sphere of faint light slowly spread out in front of them, forming a circular barrier. She whispered, "Just what is this thing? Why is it so silent?"
Although Xu Jing's tone was not as cold as before, he indifferently said, "How would I know? I could only hear its footsteps."
Saying this, Xu Jing glanced at the protective screen in front of his and wrinkled his brow. "This way, we'll be trapped."
Yan Qingxi said, "So what? We're being chased by this ghostly thing. Without this barrier, who would dare to leave?"
When Yang Junshan was rushing to one of the large stone rooms in his memory, he encountered two more stone rooms in the passage. Unfortunately, one of them was obviously taken by someone, and in this stone room, the Spirit Valley that occupied more than half of the stone room had become rotten due to the loss of the spiritual energy. Yang Junshan shook his head in pity, these Spirit Valleys had at least two hundred stones, but even if these Spirit Valleys were still intact, Yang Junshan couldn't take them away.
Even though the storage bag in Yang Junshan's hand was five feet square, and could almost match a grain truck, the use of storage bags required a cultivator's internal spiritual energy to sustain it.
Putting the items into the storage bag, in order to maintain the space inside, and at the same time to tie the string to the storage bag's entrance and exit, required a cultivator to continuously use his spiritual energy. The more items in the storage bag, the greater the spiritual energy required to maintain them.
If Yang Junshan had filled his storage bag, it wouldn't need to be full; it would only need to cover half of it. With his body's spiritual energy reserves that far exceeded cultivators of the same cultivation level, he probably wouldn't be able to maintain it for long.
All storage pouches needed to be carried on the body. Without the support of spiritual energy, the storage space could not be maintained. Before long, everything in the storage bag would be 'vomited' by it.
The main reason why he had only left a few Wutu Essence Stones in his storage bag was because, after he had left, the storage bag no longer had the support of spiritual energy. The items inside could no longer be stored, and he had no choice but to keep them in each of the stone rooms in his cave.
Just as Yang Junshan was about to leave, the pile of unlucky Spirit Valley fell down with a "hualala" sound. Yang Junshan turned around to look, and found a box suddenly leaking out from the corner of the Spirit Valley.
Yang Junshan stared blankly for a moment, and then was immediately overjoyed. He quickly took two steps forward and pushed away all the nearby spiritual valleys, but this place turned out to be a small stone table. After the pockets of the spiritual valley were broken, the spiritual valley poured down and buried the small stone table, as well as the five or six Spirit Sealing Boxes on the table.
Although he didn't know what was inside the Spirit Sealing Box, he didn't know whether or not he would be able to keep the items inside after a hundred years.
He opened one of the boxes. Inside was half a box of several hundred Spirit Grass Seeds. However, the spiritual energy contained within the box had already been completely used up. Obviously, it could not be used to grow any more.
Only when the fourth box was opened did he see that the seed was still full of spirit energy, and the vitality of the seed made Yang Junshan very happy. He did know about these Spirit Grass Seeds, they were called Spirit Concentrating Grass Seeds, and they were a type of Spirit Grass that was useful to Martial Cultivators that were born with Spiritual Awareness. These Spirit Grass was very rare, and it wasn't easy to grow.
However, as an array master, Spiritual Awareness was extremely useful in setting up and controlling formations. The Spirit Condensation Pill was something that all array masters needed.
Just when Yang Junshan was guessing that the last Spirit Sealing Box contained the seed of that particular herb, the object that was revealed in the opened box surprised Yang Junshan.
It was not some spirit grass seed, but five pieces of crystal stone the size of a quail egg, or more accurately, jade crystals. They were exactly the same as the ones that Yang Tian and the others had obtained from that Shi Clan cultivator back at Ox-Head Mountain, just that the weight of each crystal was much smaller.
There was a jade coin on the stone coin, a crystal coin on the jade coin, and a jade coin worth a hundred stone coins. Similarly, a crystal coin was also worth a hundred jade coins, and the crystal coins were formed by cutting the jade coin.
These five jade stones were too small to be cut into crystal coins, but in terms of weight, each jade stone was equivalent to two crystal coins, these five jade stones were equivalent to a thousand jade coins, which was much more expensive than the two hundred jade coins that Yang Junshan had drawn in the stone room.
Normally, even Martial Disciples would not be willing to use crystal coins or jade stones to cultivate. However, jade stones had one effect that was slightly weaker than that of the Wutu Earth Essence Stone, and it was quite helpful for Mortal Realm cultivators to break through to the Martial Human Realm bottleneck. However, jade stones were much more useful than Wutu Earth Essence Stone, as the latter could only be used for cultivators with Earth Attribute Techniques, whereas the former could only be used for almost all cultivators.
Yang Junshan carefully placed the two Spirit Sealing Boxes into his storage pouch. Then, he took a look around the room, and after finding nothing missing, he walked out.0
After walking through the tunnel for hundreds of feet, Yang Junshan started to feel alarmed, but there was nothing around him. Yang Junshan looked around doubtfully, but it was still quiet.
Yang Junshan smiled at himself, and continued walking forward with quick steps. However, this time, every step he took was as silent as before, and if one were to look closely, they would see that with Yang Junshan as the center, the sand and gravel on the ground within a radius of three feet were all trembling, which was consistent with Yang Junshan's footsteps.
Yang Junshan was overjoyed when he saw another stone room appear in front of him. He took two steps forward in a hurry, and at this moment, Yang Junshan who was rushing forward suddenly stopped in his tracks. A bright light followed his turn and swept behind him.
"Ahh!"
A shout of surprise suddenly came from behind Yang Junshan, but no one could be seen. However, after a flash of light, a red streak of blood suddenly appeared three feet behind Yang Junshan, spurting out a mouthful of blood. A red color appeared in the air, gradually outlining a person's abdomen and two thighs.
At the same time, the blood veins flew backwards. At the same time, something moved back and forth from time to time. The blood veins were stopped very quickly, but the abdomen and thighs that were drawn out by the blood could not hide it for a moment.
Yang Junshan snorted coldly, and struck out with his saber, quickly stepping forward to strike a vertical cut on his abdomen and thighs. Although this saber was only a hundred times refined, it was still shot out three feet long with the infusion of spiritual energy from Yang Junsha's body.
Unexpectedly, there was a sound like a silk being torn apart. That abdomen and thighs that were covered in blood suddenly became two soft sleeves and floated down. However, Yang Junshan's blade missed.
"Still trying to run away!"
Yang Junshan roared. He stomped hard on the ground, activating both the ground shaking and flying sand at the same time. Although it was still not as powerful as the stone breaking technique, it was still effective as expected when the opponent was in panic.
"Gulp." The sound of a heavy object falling onto the ground was heard from a tunnel more than ten feet away. The originally covered blood vein once again appeared, and the wound that was trying to stop the bleeding once again split open, staining the ground with a large amount of blood.
Yang Junshan took a big step forward with his sabre, suddenly, a cold light shot out from the void and appeared in front of him. Yang Junshan seemed to be prepared for this, and a protective talisman was activated.
A painful groan came from the ground of the passageway. The blood-stained ground suddenly slid forward, as if it was crawling forward. However, more blood flowed out, and a large portion of its abdomen and legs gradually appeared before him.
Yang Junshan's kick, which was filled with spiritual power, revealed the abdomen of a pale-faced teenager. The teenager immediately showed up and rolled over ten feet away while spitting out blood.
Yang Junshan looked at the young man and snorted, "Ghost family? Even you have appeared! "
