The Senior Brother and Junior Brother looked at each other. What Miao Yi said made sense.
However, the Senior Brother, Bao Ning, couldn't help but have some doubts, "Senior, isn't this a little inappropriate?"
Miao Yi clicked his tongue and shook his head. "I say, do you two have any brains? I've said it before, if the Vitality Sect's disciples who left the mountain to train were all like you two, I'm afraid they would have all died long ago. Let me ask you, if your fellow disciples with the same cultivation as you ran into the City God and the snake demon just now, do you think they would survive? "
The two shook their heads. Bao Xin said, "I'm afraid it would be very difficult."
Miao Yi put his hands behind his back, "What do you mean by 'afraid'? You definitely wouldn't survive. That snake demon just now could kill you two with a single slap. You wouldn't even have the strength to resist. Let me ask you again. Could it be that you two are the only unlucky ones? You always run into strong enemies when you go down the mountain, but you don't run into any of your fellow disciples? "
Bao Ning pondered, "There should be a chance of running into them, right?"
Miao Yi asked again, "Then if they ran into them, would they be dead or alive?"
Bao Ning continued, "I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to escape."
Clap! Miao Yi clapped his hands and asked loudly, "Then why did they go back alive? They couldn't have met me to protect them, right? "
After many layers of analysis, these words were like enlightenment. The two of them looked at Miao Yi in shock. Bao Xin tried to ask, "Senior, what do you mean?"
"Think about what I mean. Even a greenhorn like me can figure it out. I don't believe you guys can't." Miao Yi took out the Core and gave it to them, reminding, "I can only give it to you guys who aren't graded. It's too fake to give you a First Grade Core. With your cultivation, you won't be able to deal with a Blue Lotus cultivator. I'll give you a few more. Since you said you would run into a bunch of demons, you can't just run into a demon that can give you a round number. "
The two of them were a little hesitant. They had never lied to their sect before, but they felt that Senior's words made sense. There was no reason why their fellow disciples couldn't run into powerful demons. However, the two of them always bumped into each other!
Actually, if he hadn't bumped into Miao Yi staying overnight in the abandoned house, he wouldn't have attracted the ghost cultivators to come and threaten him, and he wouldn't have attracted the City God behind him. If he hadn't bumped into Miao Yi bringing Old Man Liu with him. In short, if they didn't run into Miao Yi, they probably wouldn't run into a bunch of strong enemies. They had met the right person.
Even though Miao Yi claimed to be a greenhorn, that was only relative to the Higher Worlds. On the other hand, Bao Ning and Bao Xin had a deeper understanding of the Higher Worlds. However, they were truly inexperienced. Compared to someone like Miao Yi, who had a wealth of experience in the martial world, the two of them simply couldn't do anything to Miao Yi.
Seeing that it was about time, Miao Yi knew that the two of them couldn't bring themselves to do this. He simply stuffed half of it into each of their hands and forcefully gave it to them.
"Senior, this is both a Yin Core and a Demonic Core. It will be hard to explain later!"
"Are you stupid? Who said that demon cultivators and ghost cultivators can't mingle together? "
The two of them lowered their heads and silently put away the items.
Seeing this, Miao Yi was immediately delighted. 'That's right.' As long as these two had deceived their sect, then these two stepping stones that led him to the Vitality Sect would be solid. They would have no choice but to speak up for him.
"Let's go, let's go. Let's return to the Liu Clan Village and greet them. This will eliminate your worries." Miao Yi chuckled as he waved his hand.
"Senior, what if someone from the sect comes to ask about the situation?"
"Don't worry. I'll go warn him. You've seen how much I hate evil. I even dared to kill the City God. Why would I be afraid of a mere land? If he dares to speak carelessly, I'll kill him later. As a man, don't be wishy-washy over small matters. If you worry about everything, then don't do anything. You still have a long road ahead of you. Don't stare at the potholes beneath your feet. Raise your head and look ahead. The road ahead is bright. Let's go. "
The two of them didn't say anything else. They silently turned around and walked towards their dragon steeds.
Miao Yi followed them for two steps. Suddenly, he was startled. He saw the snake demon's bloodstains on the ground and stopped in his tracks. He slowly turned around to look at the cloudy cliff behind him, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
The two of them heard the footsteps behind them stop. They turned around and saw Miao Yi's doubtful expression. They couldn't help but ask, "Senior, what's wrong?"
Miao Yi rubbed his chin and said, "Why do I feel that there's something strange about this snake demon staying here?"
The two of them looked at each other. Bao Ning said, "He's hiding here to cultivate. There's nothing strange about that, is there?"
Miao Yi waved his hand. "The Land of Earth also said that this snake demon appeared a few years ago. In other words, this place wasn't originally his cultivation abode. Then why is he hiding here to cultivate?"
Bao Ning said, "Senior, there's nothing wrong with that. Cultivation doesn't have to be in one's own abode. It's fine to change places to cultivate once in a while."
Miao Yi waved his hand again. "That's secondary. The key is why he made the nearby villagers pay him tribute regularly. With his Red Lotus Third Grade cultivation, it shouldn't be a problem for him to run far away. Why did he have to go through all this trouble? With a Red Lotus Third Grade cultivation, there's no need for him to make life difficult for a bunch of mountain villagers. This shows that he doesn't want to run far away. Also, when we met just now, he told us to get lost immediately. It seemed like he didn't want us to get close to this cliff. Do you think he's guarding something at the bottom of this cliff? "
The two of them looked at each other, thinking that this Senior was overthinking things.
"Let's go down and take a look first." Miao Yi turned around and walked to the edge of the cliff, then jumped down.
The two of them looked at each other, then walked to the edge of the cliff and jumped down as well. They felt a slight chill when they touched the mist.
The three of them landed at the bottom of the cliff one after another. There wasn't much mist at the bottom, and the mist hovered halfway up the cliff. The temperature here was a little low, and beneath their feet were dried up bones. There were humans, livestock, and even birds and beasts. They were probably the handiwork of the snake demon. It was quite bloodthirsty.
The lighting at the bottom of the valley wasn't very good, and with the mist covering the top, the three of them opened their transcendence vision and looked around.
A cave entrance at the bottom of the cliff caught Miao Yi's attention. However, the cave entrance was a little small. It was only knee-high, and a person couldn't enter or exit normally. Miao Yi went forward and invoked his arts to investigate. He discovered that there was another cave inside, so he crouched down and sneaked in like a cat.
Only after entering did he realize that the space inside was quite spacious. However, the temperature inside was even lower, and the chill was oppressive. There seemed to be a cave entrance at the top of the cave that was dozens of meters high. The midday sun shone down like a pillar of light, and this pillar of light made the surroundings seem even darker.
Just as Bao Ning and Bao Xin entered, Miao Yi had already walked to the bottom of the pillar of light. He raised his head and saw that there was a cave entrance at the top. He couldn't see any signs of excavation, so it should be natural. Below the pillar of light was a cold pond. The temperature emitted by the cold pond was bone-chilling, but the water in the pond didn't freeze.
Miao Yi turned around and opened his transcendence vision to look around. He walked around and looked around, but didn't find anything out of place in the empty cave.
The two Senior and Junior Brothers couldn't see anything either. Bao Ning asked, "Senior, there doesn't seem to be anything here. There's only a natural cold pond. The Earth Lord mentioned it before."
'Could it be that I'm overthinking it? But that snake demon's behavior is indeed a little strange … 'Miao Yi muttered to himself. He looked around again, and his gaze finally stopped on the pillar of light. Finally, he followed it and fixed his gaze on the surface of the cold pond.
He walked to the side of the cold pond again, and hesitated for a moment. If there was anything strange here, it could only be this cold pond.
'Splash!' He suddenly jumped down, and as he slowly sank down, he observed his surroundings.
With a splash, he looked up and saw Bao Ning and Bao Xin jumping down as well. The three of them sank down one by one.
Only now did he realize that the cold pond was a little deep. After diving down for dozens of meters, the light was already gradually dimming, but he discovered a faint red glow at the bottom.
Being the first to discover it, Miao Yi's eyes lit up. He quickly dove down, and finally slowly descended to the bottom of the cold pond.
The pond water before him shimmered with a blood-red light. It wasn't a viscous blood-red, but a blood-red that carried a spiritual nature. It gave off a brilliant and vibrant feeling.
And this radiance came from a tree at the bottom of the cold pond. It was a tree as tall as a person, the kind without leaves. It looked as though it was carved out of blood jade, and he could smell a strange fragrance from it even in the water.
'What is this?' Miao Yi thought it was strange, but his instincts told him that he had found a treasure. His judgment was probably right. The snake demon was probably guarding this thing.
"Blood Jade Branch! Senior is a Blood Jade Branch! Heavens! What a huge Blood Jade Branch! "Bao Xin transmitted his voice to him, exclaiming in surprise. Then, he and Bao Ning excitedly danced around.
Blood Jade Branch? What was that? Miao Yi transmitted his voice back and asked, "What are you two so excited about?"
Bao Ning transmitted back, "Senior, this is one of the five main ingredients needed to refine the Basic Immortal Pill! It's a rare treasure between heaven and earth! The ones we've seen before were only the size of a palm. This one as tall as a person is unheard of. How can it grow so big? How many years must it have been growing for?! "
There was no need to say anything else! 'This is mine!' Miao Yi reached out with his claws and invoked his arts to uproot it, then immediately stored it in his storage ring.
Bao Ning and Bao Xin couldn't laugh anymore. They watched as Miao Yi quickly dashed upwards, and the two of them quickly followed.
The three of them burst out of the water one after another. Miao Yi placed his hands behind his back and stared at the two who had just emerged. He calmly asked, "This Blood Jade Branch is mine. You two have no objections, right?"
The two of them couldn't hide their excitement as they looked at each other. They cupped their fists and said, "Of course it's Senior's."
This could only be attributed to the Vitality Sect's good training. They were always shouting about subduing demons and devils in a righteous manner. If it were anyone else, they would have other ideas. But then again, the two of them weren't fools. Even if they had other ideas, they had to have the ability to snatch it! With their cultivation, it was impossible for them to snatch the treasure from Miao Yi's hands.
