Immortal Road

After walking for dozens of miles, the two came to a hill with a very steep slope.

The vegetation here was very lush, and the two encountered great resistance in their progress.

Cang Cun pointed to a cave on the top of the hill and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi, that is where the soul-eating demon bats live. Generally speaking, the soul-eating demon bats only go out to forage at night. We can wait until the soul-eating demon bats go out to forage and catch one."

"Just follow Fellow Daoist Cang's arrangements." Ishikawa knew nothing about catching demon beasts. This time he had the opportunity to learn.

After a while, the two came to the entrance of the soul-eating demon bat cave. The entrance was about one person tall, dark inside, and gusts of cold wind blew out from inside.

Cang Cun didn't say much, and began to arrange the formation. Ishikawa also watched from the side, after all, there was no harm in learning more things.

Cang Cun said as he arranged the arrangements: "Fellow Daoist Shi, in the evening, we will take the Concealing Pill and wait here slowly. After the large group of Soul Devouring Demon Bats leave the cave, tie up the last one or a few. At that time, I will do my best to subdue one, and you have to protect me and kill the extra Soul Devouring Demon Bats by the way. So as not to disturb my mind. In addition, if my spiritual power is insufficient, Fellow Daoist Shi has to share my worries, otherwise all the previous efforts will be wasted. The most important thing is that we have to complete it before the large group of Soul Devouring Demon Bats return, otherwise everything will have to start all over again."

Shichuan nodded and agreed.

The two of them didn't say much, and they both sat cross-legged on the ground to rest.

The afterglow of the sunset slowly sprinkled on the two of them. There was a chirping sound coming from the cave.

"It's coming out soon." Cang Cun whispered, and then swallowed a pill into his stomach. Shichuan also pretended to swallow a pill, but it was just an ordinary cultivation pill.

For Ishikawa, who has a fairy house, the art of hiding does not require any hiding pills.

Not long after Cang Cun finished speaking, groups of soul-eating demon bats flew out of the cave. The first batch came out with hundreds of them, and the ones behind continued to reach thousands.

Seeing this, Ishikawa couldn't help but be shocked. These soul-eating demon bats were all first-level monsters. Even if their strength was weak, there were so many of them, and they had special soul-eating demon arts. There was nothing that could resist them.

This group of soul-eating demon bats seemed to have not seen the two of them, and they swarmed out, covering the sky and the sun.

Slowly, there were fewer and fewer soul-eating demon bats, and those behind were basically weak and thin. It seemed that Cang Cun could only capture such soul-eating demon bats.

The last soul-eating demon bat slowly flew out of the cave, and the left wing seemed to be a little broken.

"Get up!" Cang Cun shouted, and the magic circle flashed red light. The soul-eating demon bat was trapped in it.

Suddenly, two more soul-devouring demon bats flew out of the cave, plunged into the formation, and began to attack violently.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, hurry!"

Before Cang Cun finished speaking,

"Swoosh!" A sharp blade shot out.

"Puff!" Blood flowed, and the head of a soul-devouring demon bat was cut off by Ishikawa's sword. The demon pill also flew into Ishikawa's hands in response. All this was done in just a few breaths, just like flowing clouds and water.

It was not that Ishikawa's strength increased suddenly, but that the defenses of these demon bats were too much. There was no place to hide in the formation, and they could only become ghosts under Ishikawa's sword.

Seeing this, Cang Cun said nothing more and began to subdue one of the soul-devouring demon bats, while Ishikawa easily killed the other soul-devouring demon bat. Then he stood beside Cang Cun and was on guard.

Cang Cun looked at Ishikawa with gratitude and said nothing more.

Inside and outside the formation, one person and one demon bat began to confront each other.

Half an hour later, Cang Cun's face turned sallow, and sweat dripped down his forehead.

"Fellow Daoist Shi!" Cang Cun squeezed out two words from his teeth.

Shi Chuan waved his hands several times, and a yellow light directly hit Cang Cun's body.

Cang Cun's face looked slightly better. But the demon bat in the formation was jumping up and down. Shi Chuan thought to himself that it was not easy to subdue a first-level demon beast with Cang Cun's strength of the seventh level of Qi training.

"Go!" Shi Chuan shouted softly, and also released his mind, and at the same time manipulated the beast control method to enter the brain of the soul-devouring demon bat and suppress its tyranny.

In this way, the resistance of the soul-devouring demon bat was indeed much weaker.

After another half an hour, a demon red light suddenly appeared in Cang Cun's eyes, and the soul-devouring demon bat also stopped flying at the same time, like a wax figure, standing still in the air.

At the same time, Shi Chuan also felt that his consciousness was expelled from the soul-devouring demon bat's body.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shi, I finally succeeded." Cang Cun removed the magic circle, took the Soul Devouring Demon Bat in his hand, played with it carefully, and then reluctantly put it into the spirit beast bag.

He sat cross-legged on the ground to regulate his breathing.

This time, Cang Cun consumed a lot of spiritual power, and it might be difficult to recover in a short time.

Ishikawa didn't say much, and concentrated on protecting Cang Cun.

At this moment, Ishikawa suddenly heard a rustling sound from a distance, as if someone was coming.

Ishikawa told Cang Cun about this, and Cang Cun showed a look of horror on his face. After a little thought, he said: "Fellow Daoist Shi, my spiritual power is exhausted now, and I am afraid I can't resist. Let's go into the cave of the Soul Devouring Demon Bat and hide for a while."

Seeing that Ishikawa was a little hesitant, Cang Cun hurriedly said: "The soul-eating demon bats will ignore anything that does not have any spiritual power fluctuations. Besides, we only need to hide near the cave entrance, and you don't have to worry."

Ishikawa nodded, and the two entered the cave. The distance they entered was not far. With the help of the hazy moonlight, they could barely see what was happening outside. The cave was pitch black, and people outside would never find out what was happening inside the cave.

……………………………………………………………………

Soon, the two monks approached on tiptoe, about ten feet away from the cave, and could clearly hear the conversation between the two.

"Brother Liu, is there really Yuyue grass here? If you can find it, you will have all the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Qianji Pill!" A monk said softly.

"Of course. When I came to the ancient ruins last time, I saw a lot of Yuyue grass here, but time was tight, so I didn't collect it."

"Great! If I find Yuyue grass, all the spiritual herbs for refining Qianji Pill will be gathered, and it will not be in vain for my five or six years of searching. When the Qianji Pill is refined, I must give Brother Liu a few pills to show my gratitude!" There was a hint of ecstasy in the soft voice.

"Qianji Pill!" Ishikawa's heart moved slightly. Qianji Pill is a necessary medicine for assisting the foundation-building pill. Ishikawa has seen it at an underground auction in the town of Xiuzhen. Although the price is not very high, this Qianji Pill is rare. You may not be able to buy it when you want it, because the number of spiritual herbs required to refine Qianji Pill is very large.

Ishikawa has reached the tenth level of Qi training, and the foundation is imminent. The matter of Qianji Pill naturally cannot be ignored.

Hearing that this cultivator took five years to collect all the raw materials for Qianji Pill, Ishikawa's heart moved even more.

"Look, that's not the Feather Moon Grass!"

"Where?"

The cultivator surnamed Liu suddenly flew out his flying sword and attacked the cultivator who spoke softly from behind.

The cultivator was overjoyed when he heard about the Feather Moon Grass, and he was not on guard at all, so he was hit with one blow.

"Liu... Brother Liu, what are you doing?" The cultivator was lying on the ground, with horror on his face. He really couldn't understand why Brother Liu suddenly attacked and seriously injured him.

"Haha..." The cultivator surnamed Liu laughed loudly, "It's your fault that you didn't keep your mouth shut. You actually told me that you had collected all the herbs needed to refine the Thousand Machine Pill. Don't you know that the price of the Thousand Machine Pill was crazy before the ancient ruins began?"

"Crack!" The cultivator surnamed Liu made another sword attack, and the cultivator died.

Ishikawa's originally calm face also showed a strange look. If the two men didn't know each other, it would be fine if they fought for the treasure, but the two men seemed to be good friends from the same sect, and they actually fought because of the raw materials for refining the Thousand Machine Pills, which made Ishikawa a little regretful.

Ishikawa looked at Cangcun who was meditating and regulating his breath, and his face changed slightly. If he knew that he had many treasures on him, would Cangcun kill him? Ishikawa shook his head and didn't want to think about it anymore.

The monk surnamed Liu had already searched the corpse. After a while, he took out a storage bag and laughed out loud: "Haha... I didn't expect to have so many raw materials. This time I made a lot of money. Not only is it enough for me to use, but I can also make a lot of money..."

"Buzz..." A sound of flapping wings came from far away.

"It should be the soul-eating demon bat that has returned." Ishikawa thought to himself, and quickly checked himself and Cangcun. There was no spiritual power leaking, so he was relieved.

The monk surnamed Liu's face changed slightly, and he looked curiously at the source of the sound.
