Beast

The leading young man in purple brocade robe is none other than Luo Danchen, the leader of Yufeng Sect. Although he looks like a young man, Luo Danchen is hundreds of years old. A cultivator cannot judge his age based on his appearance.

young.

"Okay, go ahead," Luo Danchen looked calm and said casually. There are only eight hundred or so outer sect deacons in the Yufeng Sect, and their status is not as good as that of the inner sect disciples. He doesn't even have this old man's name.

You know, there is nothing else to ask, so of course he is not needed here.

"Yes, Master." The old deacon bowed and walked out of the stone house. When he walked out, he was already covered in cold sweat. He didn't dare to breathe when he was next to such a big man. The old man is over sixty years old today, but Luo Danchen's grandsons are all

He is old enough to be his grandfather.

"Elders, what do you think?" Luo Danchen looked at Yang Qing and asked the middle-aged people around him inquiringly.

"I suspect that a powerful monster has appeared in the cold iron mining area and has now escaped into the mountains." A middle-aged man with an inch-long beard on his chin said nonchalantly. He is from the Wind Control Sect.

Ninth Elder.

"There is no residual aura of monsters here. How can monsters be so capable?" The seventh elder with a hooked nose raised his own question. His expression was solemn and his eyebrows were furrowed into the character "Chuan".

"It's not like you haven't seen the magical powers of monster beasts before. It doesn't matter if you are good at hiding. You didn't realize it because you didn't have enough cultivation." The ninth elder glared when he saw the seventh elder refuting him with such a reason. "Appeared near here."

Maybe”

"You two, I just looked at the hole in the piece of cold iron ore. The remaining bones can be vaguely distinguished as antlers." The steady elder looked at the seventh elder and the ninth elder helplessly, and turned his hand to take out a large nail.

fragments. "Even the dragon's horns"

The Seventh Elder and the Ninth Elder looked at the fragment as big as a fingernail in the elder's hand in amazement, and even Luo Danchen turned around to watch.

This bone fragment is gray in color, has an irregular shape, and has severe signs of weathering on its edges. As long as you press it hard, this fragment will turn into ashes.

"Great Elder, are you kidding me? This is the dragon horn?" The Ninth Elder looked at it for a while and couldn't see where there were any deer antlers or dragon horns. "This dragon horn is comparable to a mysterious treasure. Even if the dragon dies,

Even after a thousand years, the dragon's horns are intact."

"I'm not sure it's a dragon horn. As for why it's so broken, it's because the horn has long lost its essence." The great elder turned over his hand, and the fragment disappeared, and I don't know where it was received.

"You mean the essence of this horn has been sucked away, and by what?" The seventh elder was confused and asked the elder, "What does this have to do with that roar?"

"That battle was thousands of years ago. At that time, Yufeng Sect had not yet established its sect, and I had been practicing for less than a thousand years. How could I know what it was?"

Become a fairy."

"The remains of monsters that have been dead for thousands of years, cow moos, dragon horns or deer antlers have no connection at all. There are still no clues at all." The ninth elder saw that the first elder didn't say anything and spread his hands.

"Don't mention this in advance, let's take a look at this disciple first before talking about it." Luo Danchen knew that the Ninth Elder would let the Ninth Elder talk about this matter at any time, so he helplessly stopped him.

"This kid is really lucky. He was hit by the evil spirit and is still alive." The ninth elder casually glanced at Yang Qing who was lying on the bed and lamented that Yang Qing had a hard life. "And the evil spirit caused a lot of loss of his essence and blood."

"The evil spirit, essence and blood are interdependent. Although the evil spirit will devour the essence and blood, it will not go to this extent. The most troublesome thing about the evil spirit is that it affects the mind." The seventh elder kept frowning and shook his head to deny the ninth elder's statement.

"Then what do you think is going on?" The ninth elder put his face almost close to the seventh elder's face, his eyes and nostrils widened.

Evil energy is produced by the flesh and blood, and can devour the essence and blood for one's own use. Evil energy exists widely between heaven and earth. Evil energy exists more or less wherever there is life. Since it is not naturally produced by heaven and earth, it is not included in the world of heaven and earth.

belongs among.

"This loss of blood essence and blood must not be entirely caused by evil spirits. As for the reason," the seventh elder leaned back and pulled his face away. He could feel the heat of the ninth elder's breath making his body goosebumps, and then glanced at it.

The Ninth Elder said, "I don't know either."

"I just used my spiritual sense to examine his body. The evil energy that invaded the body is swimming in the blood and muscles, and the blood essence is showing signs of being devoured and recovering." Luo Danchen's voice was calm and he stood motionless.

, but he knew the condition of Yang Qing's body very well. "The twelve serious meridians are not clear, the cultivation level is less than the first level, the sea of ​​consciousness has not been awakened, the innate vitality has no attributes, no spiritual roots, and there is nothing strange about his body. It seems that this matter has nothing to do with him.

It doesn’t matter much”

"It seems that the loss of essence and blood is his own fault." Lack of sleep, indulgence in sexual activities, etc. will consume essence and blood.

"When did our Yufeng Sect recruit such poor disciples?" The ninth elder heard what Luo Danchen said and asked the seventh elder. He was surprised. Isn't the Yufeng Sect very strict in recruiting disciples? How could it recruit such a disciple?

"It is said that the outer sect disciples in Hantie Mining Area do not have spiritual root qualifications when recruiting them," the seventh elder said casually, knowing something about recruiting outer sect disciples.

The Ninth Elder didn't care about this either. He was just an outer disciple. How could he care about such trivial matters as his qualifications and enlightenment?

"It's better to wake up and ask." The elder felt that it was safe to ask again. Maybe this disciple would know some useful clues. "Who has the Curse Clearing Pill?"

"Curse Clearing Pill, you have to use such a precious elixir to drive away evil spirits from him." Seeing the elder looking at him, the Ninth Elder shook his head and disagreed. "Just seal it casually, it will be enough for him to grow old and die without being harmed by evil spirits."

"

The Qing Curse Pill is a very precious pill that can expel evil spirits, yin energy, miasma, etc., and can cure hundreds of poisons. Among these people, he is the only one who carries one pill with him in case of emergency, and he is asked to take it out this time.

How could you give it to an outside disciple?

"Great Elder, you know I don't need this kind of elixir." The Seventh Elder has a high level of cultivation. How can evil spirit, yin energy, etc. harm him? If he doesn't need it, he doesn't bring it with him. Although the Curse Clearing Pill is precious, it doesn't matter to him.

It doesn't matter if you say it. If you have some, you just take it out.

"That's right, the path of cultivation without spiritual roots is still very short. Let's seal it." The great elder no longer clung to the Curse Clearing Pill, with a calm expression.

The great elder did not see any movement, and a green halo appeared on Yang Qing's body, and the halo disappeared in a flash.

Yang Qing's breathing became much smoother, his body temperature gradually recovered, and some of the black air wandering around his body disappeared. If Yang Qing could look inside, he would find that there was a trace of extremely fine black air in his blood.

Wire.

The great elder moved his fingers, and a dark red elixir the size of a peanut appeared. Yang Qing's mouth automatically opened, and with a flick of his fingers, the elixir fell into Yang Qing's mouth.

This dark red elixir is called Yixue Pill. It is an ordinary elixir that can restore the loss of blood. It is often taken when someone is injured and bleeding in a fight. The Yixue Pill cannot completely restore Yang Qing's lost blood essence, but it can make it possible.

His condition improved.

The elixir melted immediately in the mouth. As the elixir entered his stomach, Yang Qing's originally pale face began to turn red and gradually returned to a healthy complexion.

"Wake up" Yang Qing's physical condition improved a lot, but he didn't wake up. The great elder's lips moved slightly, and the voice directly came to mind in Yang Qing's mind.

"Who?" Yang Qing sat up with a 'plop' sound, looking at the people in front of him in surprise and confusion.

"Did you know that you just fainted?" When the elder saw Yang Qing waking up, he stepped forward to ask, with a gentle tone.

"Why did I come to sleep in the room and cover myself with two quilts?" Yang Qing was confused. He didn't know why he was lying on the bed. He didn't even remember that he passed out. Yang Qing frowned and thought about it carefully.

"Have you remembered?" the great elder asked again.

"Senior, I only remember that I was mining, and it seemed like I was digging a big hole, and then I was here." Yang Qing got off the bed, stood on the ground, lowered his head and tied his hands and feet as he answered.

Yang Qing didn't know who they were, but he could guess it by looking at their clothes and demeanor, and felt terrified.

"Why are you still mining in the middle of the night? Did you hear that beast's roar?" The elder asked still tepidly. When he thought that mining in the middle of the night had nothing to do with him, he changed the question again.

"I was fined double the amount of mining. I didn't hear the beast's roar." Yang Qing did not hide anything and said it honestly.

"Well, did anything strange happen before you made the hole in the ore?" The elder didn't care what Yang Qing was punished for, and he didn't mention the punishment again.

"No, it's the same as usual." Yang Qing shook his head decisively. There was nothing special about last night except for making a hole.

"Are you feeling unwell now?" The great elder didn't find anything valuable to ask, and he was a little unwilling.

"My body is feeling weak, my head is a bit dizzy, and my ears hurt." Yang Qing said with doubts in his voice. He closed his eyes and felt something different about his left arm.

"There's no difference, maybe it's a matter of bandaging the wound." Yang Qing was suspicious and couldn't tell what he was feeling, so he didn't say anything.

"Well, that's all, there's nothing else." The elder had no questions to ask. He looked at each other and Luo Danchen, turned around and left the stone house.

The old deacon was still waiting respectfully outside the stone house, and all the other deacons were also there, looking cautious and trembling. When they saw a few people coming out, they all bowed and saluted.

Yang Qing watched several people leave the stone house, feeling a little confused. He asked himself some incomprehensible questions and then left.

"I'm a little hungry," Yang Qing muttered to himself. He still didn't understand how he got back to the stone house. Lu Zhen didn't know where he went either, and his stomach growled loudly.

"Ah..." Not long after Luo Danchen and others left the stone house, Lu Zhentian, Bo Qi, Xiaohu and three others quietly opened the door and walked in. They saw Yang Qing sitting on his bed in a daze, and smiled at them when he saw them coming in.

, the three of them were frightened and said "ah".

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Lu Zhen and the others asked in unison, making Yang Qing even more confused by them.;
