"Master, this is a thorny root," said Xia Qing. "Didn't you store some herbs in the Archean Realm? Coincidentally, there are still some thorny roots left … "
"This thing can lure the illusion beast out?" Xia Ruofei asked in disbelief.
After Xia Qing's reminder, he also remembered that among the herbs he had stocked up in the past, there was indeed a thorny root.
However, this was just an ordinary herb. Could it be used to lure the illusion beast out obediently? Xia Ruofei felt that it was a little unreliable.
Xia Qing said with a smile, "Master, it's not luring it out, it's forcing it out. The illusion beast hates the smoke from the burning thorny roots. If you ignite the thorny roots and let the smoke enter the cave, it will definitely not be able to withstand it. "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Since there's no other way, this is the only way. Let's hope there's no other exit!"
With that said, Xia Ruofei poured all the thorny roots out of the bag and piled them up in the small cave entrance. Then, he used a Zippo lighter to ignite them.
The thorny roots were very dry and almost ignited upon contact with the fire.
These intertwined wild vines quickly emitted smoke after burning. Xia Ruofei sniffed it and did not feel any difference from the smoke of ordinary firewood.
However, he was still very confident in Xia Qing's judgment, so he didn't care too much. He directly added a Zhen Qi cover on the pile of burning vines, not allowing a trace of smoke to leak out. Then, he used his Zhen Qi to force all the smoke into the hole.
"Master, be careful not to let it escape. The illusion beast's speed is still very fast," reminded Xia Qing.
Xia Ruofei grinned and said, "Understood!"
After the illusion array failed, Xia Ruofei felt that the suppression of his mental strength was not as strong as before. Therefore, after forcing the smoke into the cave, he had already released his mental strength and focused on the situation in the cave.
In less than a minute, Xia Ruofei felt some movement in the cave.
He regained his spirit and concentrated on guarding the entrance of the cave. As long as the mirage beast dared to come out, he would make sure it would not be able to return!
In the blink of an eye, Xia Ruofei felt a blur in front of his eyes as a yellow phantom jumped out of the hole.
Subconsciously, he reached out his hand and accurately grabbed the phantom beast's hind leg. Then, without thinking, he swung the phantom beast and smashed it heavily onto the ground.
With a muffled sound, the phantom beast was pushed to the ground by Xia Ruofei.
"Master! Use your hidden weapon! "Xia Qing said," The Phantom Beast's skin is rough and its flesh is thick, this won't hurt it! "
Sure enough, before Xia Ruofei's voice fell, the phantom beast had already rolled up from the ground.
Without hesitation, Xia Ruofei took out a pistol from the Ring-Tu space.
Releasing the safety, loading, firing … Xia Ruofei's movements were as smooth as flowing water. A second later, the bullet was accurately shot at the phantom beast.
The phantom beast quickly fled forward while changing its movement trajectory left and right, hoping to avoid Xia Ruofei's "hidden weapon".
Unfortunately, after it was injured, there was no way to set up the illusion array. Moreover, Xia Ruofei's mental strength was not suppressed by the array. Under the cover of his mental strength, its movement trajectory could not be hidden at all.
Even in this short second, the phantom beast had already escaped into the darkness. However, with the help of his mental strength, Xia Ruofei could still clearly "see" the phantom beast's figure.
His bullets had been chasing the phantom beast's figure. Soon, a bullet hit the phantom beast's leg, causing its speed to drop by a lot.
Xia Ruofei struck while the iron was hot. He was not stingy with his bullets and shot at the phantom beast.
"Master, don't hit the head!" Xia Qing hurriedly reminded.
Xia Ruofei's muzzle lowered slightly. The bullet that was supposed to enter the phantom beast's head directly drilled into the phantom beast's neck.
This shot was fatal. After the phantom beast's legs kicked a few times, it died in a pool of blue blood.
"After plotting against me, you still want to run?" Xia Ruofei muttered as he carefully approached the phantom beast with his gun.
At the same time, his mental strength almost wrapped around the phantom beast. If the phantom beast really faked its death or had some other conspiracy, it would be difficult to escape Xia Ruofei's detection.
The phantom beast was really dead.
Xia Ruofei came closer and found that the phantom beast was motionless. He stretched out his leg and kicked a few times, but there was no movement.
Xia Ruofei finally relaxed, but she still held the gun tightly in her hand.
"Master, the phantom beast is completely dead." Xia Qing said, "There is a tuft of hair under its neck. Now it has completely turned white. This means that its vitality has completely dissipated."
Xia Ruofei observed for a moment and found that there was a tuft of white hair under the phantom beast's neck. Before this phantom beast was yellow.
Xia Ruofei felt that it was very fresh, but he knew that Xia Qing would definitely not lie to him, so he was completely relieved.
This illusion array was the most dangerous one for Xia Ruofei since he obtained the Spirit Map Scroll. Especially when the phantom beast changed into Song Wei's appearance. Xia Ruofei almost fell for it.
Therefore, he also hated the phantom beast to the bone. Now that he finally killed the phantom beast with his own hands, he felt quite relieved.
Since the phantom beast was eliminated, Xia Ruofei was ready to find Song Wei. In this dangerous underground palace, Song Wei, who had no cultivation at all, was definitely in a very dangerous situation. Xia Ruofei was also very anxious at the moment.
However, just as Xia Ruofei was about to leave, Xia Qing said, "Master, don't be in a hurry to leave. The treasure on the phantom beast has not been taken yet!"
Xia Ruofei was stunned and said, "There is still a treasure on the phantom beast? Why didn't I see it? But I can't find my military dagger anymore … "
Xia Ruofei's military dagger was the trophy of his mission. It had been with him for many years. When the phantom beast came out of the cave, it did not bring the dagger with it. It must have been taken by the phantom beast after it returned to the cave.
That cave was so small that Xia Ruofei would definitely not be able to retrieve the dagger. Thus, he felt that it was a pity.
Xia Qing said with a smile, "Master, if there is no treasure on the phantom beast, why would I ask you to come and kill it?"
"Isn't it for revenge?" Xia Ruofei asked with a smile, "I remember, just now you said that killing the phantom beast would be good for me. Now that the phantom beast has been killed, what is the benefit? Don't keep me in suspense! "
"Yes, master!" Xia Qing said, "Didn't I just remind master not to hit its head? The treasure of the phantom beast is in its head. Master, cut its head open first! "
"Okay!" Xia Ruofei said.
He took out a knife from the Ring-Tu space. Although the military dagger was lost, there were still a few knives in the space.
After the phantom beast died, its body was not completely stiff. Xia Ruofei easily cut open its head.
"Master, now you have to find a skull." Xia Qing said, "It is very different from ordinary skulls. It is easy to distinguish. There are many natural Dao patterns on this skull. It is a pity that this phantom beast has only reached the three-tailed realm. If it had nine tails, the Dao patterns would be more precious … "
Xia Ruofei rolled his eyes and said, "If it had nine tails, would I still be alive now?"
"That's true!" Xia Qing said with a smile.
With Xia Qing's guidance, Xia Ruofei's efficiency was naturally very high. Of course, because the skull was very obvious, he quickly found the skull with the natural Dao patterns.
In order to find it, Xia Ruofei also searched for a while. His hands were also stained with blue blood.
He put the phantom beast's Dao bone aside and took out a bucket filled with spiritual pond water from the space. He first washed his hands, then put the Dao bone in the bucket and washed it.
After pouring the water and putting the bucket back into the space, Xia Ruofei held the Dao bone and asked, "Xia Qing, what is the use of this skull? It can be called a treasure by you! "
Xia Qing said with a smile, "Master, you will know if you use your spiritual power to sense the Dao patterns."
"So mysterious …" Xia Ruofei muttered as he released his spiritual power.
"Eh?" Xia Ruofei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
When his spiritual power came into contact with the natural Dao patterns, he immediately felt a mysterious aura rushing towards him. He couldn't help but indulge in these mysterious patterns.
After a long time, Xia Ruofei came out of this mysterious state. He suddenly realized that his realm had increased by another level. He was very close to the sixth level of Qi Cultivation.
"So magical! My cultivation has increased significantly! "Xia Ruofei couldn't help but exclaim.
He wasn't in the state of cultivation at all. He was just sensing the Dao patterns, and it could actually increase his cultivation. This was really unheard of.
"Master, the increase in cultivation is only a small part of it." Xia Qing said with a smile, "This phantom beast's Dao bone is naturally passed down. Looking at it often will be very helpful for your understanding of Array Dao."
Xia Ruofei's heart skipped a beat. He quickly realized that his understanding of Array Dao had increased by a lot, especially his understanding of Illusion Array Dao. It was simply a lot higher than before.
The knowledge of Array Dao was instilled into Xia Ruofei's mind through the Inheritance Jade Talisman. Although he didn't need to spend too much effort to digest all these insights, he now felt that his understanding of Array Dao had always been very shallow. Many parts that he didn't understand before suddenly became clear.
Xia Ruofei even felt that he could easily set up an Illusion Array now. If the array's materials were good enough, the power would definitely not be low.
"It's really a treasure!" Xia Ruofei said.
"Master, you can take out this phantom beast's Dao bone often to comprehend." Xia Qing said, "Not only is it helpful to your Array Dao cultivation, but it's also a natural Dao pattern. It's also very beneficial to your comprehension of cultivation."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "I know! Xia Qing, it's all thanks to your profound knowledge. Otherwise, I would have really missed out on this great treasure! "
Xia Ruofei had the urge to sit down and comprehend it again. The feeling of being immersed in the natural Dao pattern was very wonderful.
However, he also knew that the most important thing now was to find Song Wei. Therefore, he endured his reluctance and stored the Dao bone in the Ring-Tu space first.
This trip to Xiangnan Province was full of twists and turns. However, after obtaining this phantom beast's Dao bone, Xia Ruofei didn't even find a single Realm Stone. He felt that this trip was worth it.
Xia Ruofei continued to grope his way forward in the darkness.
This corridor was different from the previous one. Although it was pitch-black, there weren't so many forks and turns. Xia Ruofei just kept walking in one direction.
Unknowingly, Xia Ruofei felt that the surrounding darkness seemed to have faded a little. At first, he thought that it was an illusion. When he put away the lighter and closed his eyes for a while, he opened his eyes and slowly raised his hand.
Sure enough, he found that he could see a faint outline. It was the kind of complete darkness just now. He couldn't even see his fingers when he stretched out his hand.
Xia Ruofei didn't use the lighter to illuminate the way and just continued walking forward.
Because the suppression of his mental strength was much weaker now, he could still release his mental strength to explore the way. It wasn't to the extent that he couldn't see the way clearly.
After moving forward for a while, Xia Ruofei found that the darkness had been diluted a lot. Now, he could faintly see his legs.
Although he didn't find where the light source was, Xia Ruofei felt that it was getting brighter as he walked. This meant that he should be out of this dark environment soon.
In this way, Xia Ruofei walked forward for a full half an hour. Now, the environment was basically not dark. It was a bit like the environment in the evening. He could see the road clearly, but it wasn't the kind where the sun was high up in the sky.
Just as Xia Ruofei quickened his pace, he suddenly felt a strong wind.
At the same time, Xia Qing immediately warned, "Master, be careful!"
In fact, Xia Ruofei had already foreseen the danger, so he immediately moved sideways. A blade flashed past his eyes. If his reaction was half a second slower, he was afraid that his head would have been separated from his body.
Only then did Xia Ruofei see clearly that a burly man in ancient clothing was holding a demon-headed blade. He didn't know where he came from, but he launched a fierce attack as soon as he saw him.
"Master, that's a puppet!" Xia Qing warned, "You have to be careful!"
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but look serious. Fortunately, Xia Qing warned him. Otherwise, this puppet that could pass off as a real one would really be dangerous.
After all, if it was a human, certain attacks could be fatal, such as the heart. However, a puppet was different. Its chest wasn't necessarily a fatal part of its body.
If Xia Ruofei let out a sigh of relief after hitting its heart, the danger of death might come in the next moment.
Xia Ruofei didn't dare to be negligent. He held a dagger in a reverse grip and rushed forward.
Compared to a human, a puppet's flexibility was still inferior. Xia Ruofei fought with it with ease. The burly puppet's attack seemed sharp, but it couldn't even touch the corner of Xia Ruofei's clothes.
Xia Ruofei, on the other hand, quickly found an opportunity to stab the puppet in the heart.
If it was an ordinary person who was stabbed in this area, they would definitely die on the spot.
However, the puppet seemed to be fine. It didn't feel any pain, nor did it feel any fear.
What was even more strange was that the puppet's chest was deeply stabbed, but not a single drop of blood flowed out. There was only a ghastly wound.
"Master, try to smash its head!" Xia Qing said.
"Understood!" Xia Ruofei said calmly.
He continued to fight with the puppet, relying on his agile movement skills to move around the puppet. In the blink of an eye, the puppet had been stabbed many times, but its combat strength didn't decrease at all.
Just as Xia Ruofei swung the dagger at the puppet for the fifth time, a pistol suddenly appeared in his hand when he was close to the puppet.
