Moreover, the Heavenly Elixir Sect's trial wasn't something that he could come whenever he wanted. He had to wait for the Heavenly Elixir Sect to hold it, and he wouldn't be able to enter even if he came.
Go! Lin Yi gritted his teeth. He knew that there was a tiger on the mountain, but he still went ahead. Since he was already here, how could he leave? Most of the time, Lin Yi sought wealth in danger. Without taking risks, how could he gain any rewards?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi made up his mind and walked up the mountain.
The mountain path was very steep and rugged. There wasn't a smooth path up the mountain.
Obviously, not only was there no one going up the mountain, there shouldn't be any spirit beasts going up either. This showed that there was definitely some kind of hidden danger on the mountain. Otherwise, why wouldn't there be any spirit beasts nearby?
Moreover, even if there weren't any land spirit beasts, there should be some flying spirit beasts, right? However, Lin Yi didn't see any.
Although the mountain path was difficult to walk, it wasn't a cliff. Even if there was no path, there were still some footholds. With Lin Yi's Qinggong, going up the mountain shouldn't be a problem.
"Skybolt pig, which direction is it?" Lin Yi asked.
"Ji ji!" Skybolt pig stretched out his paw and pointed in a direction not far away.
Lin Yi nodded and carried Skybolt pig forward slowly. After walking for a few hundred meters, Skybolt pig suddenly squeaked again.
"Ji ji!" Skybolt pig squeaked and pointed at a stone hill not far away.
"Oh? The treasure you were talking about is here? "Lin Yi asked, slightly taken aback.
"Ji ji!" Skybolt pig nodded and then shook his head.
"What does that mean?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
"Ji ji!" Skybolt pig pointed at the stone hill and nodded. Then, he pointed at the mountain not far away and nodded again.
"Oh, I get it. You're saying that there's treasure here, and there's treasure not far from here, right?" Lin Yi understood what the pig was getting at.
"Ji ji." The Skybolt Pig nodded its head in satisfaction.
Lin Yi quickly moved towards the stone hill. There was nothing special about the appearance of the hill. Lin Yi stretched out his hand to dig the hill and the jade did not warn him, which meant that there was no danger here.
It didn't take long for the mound to be excavated, and what surprised Lin Yi was that underneath the rubble was the skeleton of a spirit beast!
From the outside, it was hard to tell what kind of spirit beast it belonged to. There were too many types of spirit beasts. Lin Yi couldn't even recognize the living ones, let alone the dead ones.
In this pile of spirit beast bones, Lin Yi didn't need to search much to find the inner core of a spirit beast. It seemed like this was the treasure that Skybolt pig was talking about.
Now, Lin Yi had six inner cores of spirit beasts. One was given by Gou Huli's lion, two were obtained from Wulong Haote mountain range, one was given by the Qian Mountain sect, one was given by the ghost, and the last one was exchanged with a Sky Realm cultivator at the cultivator's market.
However, the one that the ghost gave him was obviously different from the others, and the ghost didn't let him use it, so he couldn't just use it. The remaining five could be used to make a necklace of essence. Lin Yi didn't want to use it, so he didn't want to.
However, Lin Yi wasn't a blacksmith, so he couldn't refine it yet. Now that he had obtained an extra Essence Neidan, it wasn't that he didn't want to waste it. To make an Essence Necklace, the minimum number of Essence Neidan was five. The more, the better. Moreover, the higher the level of the beast, the better the effect. So, Lin Yi naturally wouldn't waste this Essence Neidan.
Carefully putting away the inner core, Lin Yi asked Skybolt pig, "Is the thing in front better than this?"
"Ji ji!" Skybolt pig nodded.
"Good, let's continue!" Lin Yi picked up Skybolt pig and strode towards the top of the mountain.
What made Lin Yi feel strange was that although the map clearly indicated that this was an extremely dangerous place, Lin Yi hadn't encountered any danger along the way. This made Lin Yi feel strange and suspicious. Did the Heavenly Elixir Sect make a mistake?
In other words, this place was an extremely dangerous place many, hundreds, even thousands of years ago, but perhaps the danger no longer existed. Otherwise, Lin Yi couldn't explain why he was safe and sound all this time, not running into any danger.
At the top of the mountain, Lin Yi finally set foot on it. Standing there, Lin Yi wanted to see the whole scene of the trial ground, but he didn't expect that there would be a thick fog in the distance, so he couldn't see far. Maybe this was the natural climate of the trial ground.
Lin Yi shook his head and didn't spend too much time on this matter. Instead, he asked Skybolt pig, "We have reached the top of the mountain, where is the treasure?"
"Ji ji …" Skybolt pig turned his head and pointed at the cave in the distance. However, before Lin Yi could answer, a huge fluctuation of Qi suddenly came! Not only Lin Yi's heart trembled, but even Skybolt pig's hair stood up!
Skybolt pig rarely stood up since he started following Lin Yi. Whenever he encountered danger, his hair would stand up, carrying poison. Lin Yi had seen it once in the Ancient Tomb, and this time, Skybolt pig's hair unconsciously stood up, which was enough to show how terrifying that aura was.
Following the direction of the energy fluctuation, Lin Yi raised his head and looked in that direction. Not far from the mountain peak, there was a flash of colorful lights in the blue sky. These lights contained a violent energy fluctuation, and a loud rumbling sound was like the thunder before a storm, causing Lin Yi to feel an indescribable pressure!
"Boom —" This was the sound of the collision of energy. Lin Yi focused his gaze and found that the sound came from the cave at the top of the mountain, and the colorful energy collision also came from that cave!
"Boom —" Another loud sound was heard, and the explosive energy carried sand and stones in all directions. The entire mountain was suddenly filled with flying sand and stones, and the originally pure sky suddenly became gray. Even though Lin Yi was a cultivator, he was still a bit afraid of this strange phenomenon.
"This … What is this sound? Is this a battle between experts? Is there … someone there? Or are two spirit beasts having a sword duel at Mount Hua? "Lin Yi took a deep breath and muttered to himself.
"Ji ji …" Skybolt pig nodded his head, then shook it.
"You mean, there … is someone there … A man and a spirit beast are fighting?" Lin Yi looked at Skybolt pig in surprise.
