"It's hard to say, but one thing for sure is that this guy's deific consciousness is at a very high level," Lin Yi paused, looked at the two, and added, "Higher than the average Nascent Soul Old Monster."
As soon as he said this, Ling Tianyou and Bing Wuqing immediately fell silent. Nascent Soul Old Monsters were already at the top of the Immemorial Underworld, and this guy's deific consciousness was higher than the average Nascent Soul Old Monster's. Wouldn't that mean that he had the highest combat power in the Immemorial Underworld?
This small Tai Snake Island actually had so many crouching tigers and hidden dragons, it was simply incredible!
The three continued to move forward for nearly an hour. At this time, they were already deep in the hinterland of Tai Snake Island, and they had crossed a clear path. They were already in a very remote place at the edge, and even Lin Yi could hear the sound of waves crashing against the reefs.
"We're here." Ling Tianyou stopped.
Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing were stunned at the same time. In front of them was not the deep mountains and dense forests they had imagined, nor was it a dangerous place. Instead, it was so empty that it made them feel excited, because in front of them was the sea, and under their feet was a cliff that was dozens of feet high.
"Here?" Bing Wuqing frowned. This place was full of bare rocks, and everything could be seen at a glance. It didn't look like a place where deific consciousness fruits could grow at all.
Lin Yi was also a little puzzled, but after sensing for a moment, he suddenly raised his eyebrows. "There's a cave under the cliff?"
"Brother Lin is wise!" Ling Tianyou grinned, and then explained, "It was also by chance. The last time I came here with my master, we encountered an Armored Bone Snake. It is one of the most ferocious and terrifying spirit beasts on Tai Snake Island, and its mature strength is close to that of a Nascent Soul Old Monster. Even my master could only run away if he was targeted by it, but that guy is so elusive that we couldn't get rid of it several times. Finally, we were forced to this position and had no choice but to jump into the sea."
There were all kinds of ferocious and terrifying sea beasts in the vast sea of Heaven-Stage Island, and it was the same in the Immemorial Underworld. Normally, no one would jump into the sea unless it was absolutely necessary, especially in a dangerous and remote place like Tai Snake Island. Of course, compared to the Armored Bone Snake in front of them, they had no choice but to jump.
"And then?" Lin Yi motioned for Ling Tianyou to continue.
"After that, we discovered that there was actually an extremely large cave underneath. The entrance was less than 15 zhang underwater. My master and I swam inside for a while, and when we entered, it was a completely different world. However, there was a strange and dangerous aura lingering inside. My master was injured by the Armored Bone Snake, so he didn't dare to go too deep inside. He only stayed at the entrance for a while before retreating," Ling Tianyou said with a sigh.
"Interesting." Lin Yi's lips curled into a smile.
"This Tai Snake Island, from the snake's tail to the snake's head, not only me and my master, but also the other cultivators have been sifted countless times. If there really is a spiritual knowledge fruit, it would have been taken away long ago. Only that unknown cave is a blank area that everyone has missed." Ling Tianyou grinned excitedly.
If it weren't for the fact that their strength was too low and they were frightened by the Armored Bone Snake, Ling Tianyou and his master would have already sifted through the cave below. After all, it was related to the spiritual knowledge fruit, and anyone who came here would be tempted.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Lin Yi glanced at the two of them and was about to take the lead to go down.
"Brother Lin, wait a moment." Ling Tianyou hurriedly stopped him.
"What? Brother Ling, do you have any other things to take note of? "Lin Yi turned to look at him.
"No, with Brother Lin and Brother Bing's strength, there is nothing to be afraid of even if there is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire down below, but …" Ling Tianyou paused and shook his head. "I actually didn't plan to go down this time."
"Oh?" Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing couldn't help but look at each other. According to what the other party said, the spiritual knowledge fruit was likely to be in this huge cave below. They had obviously come here, but they didn't plan to go down. What the hell was going on?
As the saying went, it was hard to know what was in a man's heart. Although Lin Yi had saved Ling Tianyou's life, no one knew what the other party was planning. This time, the Tai She Island trial might really be to repay his kindness, or it might just be a trap. No one could say for sure.
No matter how they looked at it, it was a bit abrupt for Ling Tianyou to retreat at this time.
"Please don't misunderstand. I don't have any intention of harming the two of you. Even if we take ten thousand steps back, with the strength of the two of you, do you think others can trick you?" Ling Tianyou hurriedly clarified with a bitter smile.
"Brother Ling, don't worry, I believe you won't harm us." Lin Yi nodded. Frankly speaking, he didn't believe in Ling Tianyou's character, but purely believed in his and Bing Wuqing's strength.
After all, no matter what kind of trap it was, if the other party really wanted to trick them, there must be a Nascent Soul Old Monster, and there must be a lot of Nascent Soul Old Monsters. Otherwise, only two or three Nascent Soul Old Monsters would be useless.
In the small Ancient Jianghu, the movement of any Nascent Soul Old Monster would attract attention. As for gathering more than three Nascent Soul Old Monsters at once, it was almost a fantasy. Unless the entire Ancient Alliance declared war on Lin Yi, it was impossible for a single Ling Tianyou to have such influence.
What's more, even if there were so many Nascent Soul Old Monsters, as long as they came to Tai She Island, they couldn't escape Lin Yi's divine sense. Therefore, the possibility of Ling Tianyou setting a trap for them was very small.
"Thank you." Ling Tianyou was somewhat flattered by Lin Yi's trust, and then said, "My purpose in coming to Tai She Island this time is actually different from others. I'm not here for the spiritual knowledge fruit, but to do two things."
"What two things?" Lin Yi asked.
"One is to bring you here. Whether or not there are spiritual knowledge fruits in this huge cave below, this is a token of my sincerity, and also a small repayment to Brother Lin for saving my life," Ling Tianyou said sincerely. Ling Tianyou said sincerely. From the very beginning, he had never planned to go down with the two of them. It was not only because his strength was too low, but also because he wanted to avoid the awkwardness.
If there were really spiritual knowledge fruits down there, and there were only one or two, what should he do?
Of course, such thinking was a little groundless. After all, it was still unknown whether there were spiritual knowledge fruits down there or not. Worrying about dividing the spoils at this time, in the eyes of others, was really thinking too much.
"What about the second thing?" Lin Yi continued to ask.
