Demonic energy is not spiritual energy and will not appear for no reason. Since you feel the demonic energy, it means that there are monsters nearby.

Looking back at the sailor who was still trying to pull the cable to fix the battleship, Tianyou did not make any statement, but found the captain and told them to repair the damaged hull as soon as possible, and then said that he wanted to go to the island to go around.

Of course, the captain could not limit Tianyou's actions. After proposing to send someone to follow him, he no longer insisted. Instead, he agreed to deal with an emergency and went back to concentrate on directing the repair of the hull.

He took Qi and the others to ashore until he was far away from the ship Tianyou asked Hu Niu: "Where did the breath come from?"

Hu Niu shook her head. "I don't know. It seems there is, but it seems that there is no. I can't be sure. Maybe I'm wrong."

"No, it really is." Hu Qingxuan suddenly spoke.

Tianyou did not doubt Hu Qingxuan's words. Hu Niu might have made a mistake alone, and even Hu Qingxuan felt it, it was unlikely that it was an illusion.

"Let's go around first to see if we can find anything." Tianyou said as he looked up at the ruins of moss surrounding him. "This place looks like the fallen ruins of the Heavenly Palace. Maybe it's the corpse of the demon clan left behind in the war. Because of the age, the demonic energy is so weak that it is almost impossible to detect."

Before, Cang Ming's corpse was stuck in the fallen ruins of the Heavenly Palace and could not be removed, and it almost made Tianyou. This ruin was lonely and hung overseas, and there were no people from Zixiao Palace to clean it up. It is reasonable to reason that there were more corpses left. However, for so long, unless it was a big demon king like Cang Ming, the corpse of ordinary monsters should have been shattered by the wind and sun and the green plants everywhere. It could still leave a breath. I am afraid that this was at least a demon king during his lifetime.

No matter what, what you can feel now is a slight trace of demonic aura that is inaccurate, and you can't even judge the direction based on it. All Tianyou and the others can do is to walk around first and then talk.

Unlike the naturally formed islands, this island is likely to be part of the Heavenly Palace as a whole. In other words, it is not the fragments of the Heavenly Palace falling on the island, but the whole fragment falling into the sea and inserted into the seabed. The exposed part is the island they see.

Thinking of this, the volume of this fragment is really quite large.

Leaving the shore where the warship they were docking, there was almost a hill ahead. The ground at the large incline was made of stones, and it was covered with moss, which was extremely slippery. If it weren't for the severe cracking, there were many gaps to rely on and would be almost impossible to walk.

However, Tianyou and the others are not ordinary people. Except for the little sister Qi, Tianyou and the others are almost not affected.

Hu Niu is a tiger demon, and the mountains and forests are her home. No matter how difficult the road is, it is not a problem for her.

Hu Qingxuan is almost the same. Although she has been living in the world for a long time, she is a fox demon born in the forest. She saw the graceful white figure jumping between the green mossy rocks, and the snow-white silk behind her was flying in the wind, as if she was not walking, but flying low.

As for Tianyou... that's a monkey.

Only Xiaomei Qi, although she has studied hard since joining Zixiao Palace, has improved her cultivation a lot, but because of the built-in Vajra skeleton, her defense has increased, but she has no hope. Fortunately, she is strong and leaping with brute force. Every time she lands, she can step on the rocks under her feet into a shallow pit for her foot, and she is not worried about slipping. It’s just that the noise is a bit loud, and it doesn’t look as high as Tianyou and the others.

A distance from the shore, all the trees and vegetation are everywhere. There seems to be no animals on the island, and they are covered with plants everywhere. Moreover, the uncontrolled plants are growing wildly. In addition, the density of spiritual energy here seems to be much higher than that in other places, and the plants are growing wildly. So much so that there is no existence on the island that can be called roads. If it weren't for Tianyou and their strong mobility, it would be almost impossible to move in such a place.

Boom.Click. "Ah!"

Tianyou and the others who were running in front suddenly heard a loud noise from behind, followed by the sound of the wood breaking, and then heard the screams of Qi Xiaomei.

Tianyou hurriedly stopped and looked back, and saw fragments of soil falling all over the sky.

Hu Qingxuan and Hu Niu also heard the movement and stood still. When they looked back, they found that a huge rotten wood that was lying on the ground was broken by the weight of her falling. Both ends bounced back directly, and countless pieces of mud and wood were flying. However, Qi Xiaomei herself fell into the dead branches and leaves under the rotten wood.

Originally, she thought she would get up soon, but Tianyou and the others didn't care, and they didn't even think about going to help. They just looked around and observed the environment while waiting for Xiaomei Qi to climb out by themselves. However, after a few breaths, Tianyou and the others found something wrong. Xiaomei Qi did not climb out by themselves after falling down, and there was no movement from the dead branches, as if Xiaomei Qi had disappeared.

"What's going on?"

Tianyou and Hu Qingxuan looked at each other, then turned around and returned to the dead tree that the little sister Qi fell down.

The huge dead wood that was trampled off had rolled to the side, revealing the loose rotten soil composed of dead branches and leaves below. However, after getting close, Tianyou and the others finally found something wrong, because there was no one under the dead leaves.

Tianyou has a sharp sense, and Hu Qingxuan and Hu Niu have good cultivation. At such a close distance, it is impossible for anyone to feel it under the leaves. Moreover, this is not an accidental pass, but a purposeful search for a fallen companion. He still has no feeling when he is focused, which can only mean that Xiaomei Qi is not under the bottom.

Hu Niu reacted the fastest, raising her hand to the pile of dead leaves on the ground and slapped hard. A gust of wind hangs over, slapping the loose fallen leaves and dead branches on the ground. Although there are still many tangled dead branches that are not all blown away, without the coverage of the dead leaves, Tianyou and the others immediately discovered the entrance of the cave hidden under the dead leaves.

To be precise, what Tianyou and the others found was not the cave, but the roof.

This is a building buried underground, which should be part of the ruins of the Heavenly Palace. It is just because it is old and falls, and after falling, it is covered with vegetation. As time goes by, dead branches and leaves continue to accumulate on the roof, and finally rot into soil, completely burying the building. As for the hole, it is actually a hole in the roof. The rotten wood that was trampled by Qi Xiaomei fell on the roof, just covering the hole. However, Qi Xiaomei was too heavy and the impact of landing when she jumped forward was too great, which directly broke the dead wood that had already decayed on it. By chance, it just slid directly into the hole below.

He quickly pulled open the remaining dead branches and threw them aside. Tianyou approached the cave and shouted: "Little sister, little sister, are you okay?"

There was a sensational sound coming from below, with echoes, and the space seemed to be quite large. Then Tianyou heard Qi Xiaomei's answer.

"Senior Brother Tianyou, I'm fine. But it's a little high above, you throw a rope down."

"Wait."

Tianyou took off his worries and searched for the ropes, but Hu Niu on the side took out a fire pie and walked to the entrance of the cave to see what was going on. Tianyou, who was looking for a rope, found the fire pie that Hu Niu opened from the corner of his eyes, and immediately exclaimed: "No!"

Unfortunately, he was too late. Just when he shouted no, the fire broker in Hu Niu's hand had already approached the entrance of the cave, and then there was a shocking sound. Even with the reaction of the monster, he could not avoid the sudden burst of force, and the ground under his feet was lifted upwards. Tianyou, Hu Niu, and Hu Qingxuan did not run away, and they were all lifted into the air together, and they were all falling out in all directions.

"Ah!" Tianyou fell on a big rock with a thud, feeling his heart and blood surging, and his breathing was about to stagnate. He felt severe pain coming from his limbs and bones, so painful that he didn't dare to breathe, because every move would aggravate the pain.

Before he could recover, a buzzing sound suddenly came from Tianyou's body, and the huge rock under him settled down a little. The instantaneous feeling of weightlessness suddenly disappeared. Although Tianyou felt pain, his consciousness was not messed up. He could not deal with what was going to happen, because his body was already so painful that he could not move. Even if he knew what was going on under him, he would not dare to move around.

Sure enough, after the first tremor, the huge rock under him suddenly sank with a crackling sound, and the surrounding ground also collapsed and collapsed.

Just now, when Xiaomei Qi called him to throw the rope, Tianyou knew that the space below was not small, otherwise there would not be such a obvious echo. In other words, Tianyou and the others have always been standing on a large roof, and the roof under their feet is completely suspended.

Tianyou refused to let Hu Niu use fire notes because he guessed the following situation.

The building was buried underground, and the surrounding area must have been sealed, which means that it is a semi-sealed environment inside, just like an urban sewer. In addition, over the years, a large number of dead leaves fell into it from the hole at the top, rotting and fermenting inside, forming a natural biogas pool. It would be fine if there was no open flame on weekdays, but once an open flame approached, it would immediately detonate the fully mixed biogas below.

Tianyou had played cave exploration when he was on Earth before, and he had seen this kind of environment, so he did not rashly throw fires down. Unfortunately, Tianyou understood, but Hu Niu didn't understand. As a result, he was like a naughty child throwing firecrackers into the sewer, he directly exploded the hole.

This building has been buried underground for many years and has long lost its original strength. Even the building of the Heavenly Palace has experienced high altitude falls and long-term deep underground burial, and its structure has been almost destroyed. The explosion just now was the last blow to destroy the camel, and the entire building could no longer support the weight of the top. In addition to the entire roof near the explosion point being blown away, the surrounding part also completely collapsed and collapsed.

Tianyou felt his body soaring into the air again in an instant, but before he could react, he fell heavily on the stone again. What's even more terrible is that the huge rock under him actually rolled because of the fall, and he was about to turn Tianyou over.

"Damn!" Tianyou, who could not move, could not dodge. Fortunately, he was the type of person who became more nervous and calmer. Seeing that he was turning himself to the ground and was about to crush over his head in the next second, Tianyou became wise in an emergency. The Xuanling Treasure Mirror appeared in front of him instantly, barely resisting the rolling giant stone.

Although the Xuanling Treasure Mirror looks like a thin and exquisite ancient mirror, it was made by a fairy in the secret realm, and he had blocked the full-strength attack of the great demon king Yao Meng. Even if this magic weapon is seriously damaged and cannot be completely repaired, it is not something that a piece of stone can do.

With the Xuanling Treasure Mirror blocking the rolling giant rock, Tianyou quickly endured the pain and tried to move to the side. Fortunately, before he climbed a few times, Hu Qingxuan fell from the sky and slapped the giant rock with his palm. The giant rock as big as a van flew out like a ball.

"Master, are you okay?"

"It's no big deal, it's just that my whole body hurts. Don't touch me first, just let me slow down. You can go and see how Sister Qi is doing."

As soon as Tianyou finished speaking, Hu Qingxuan had no time to take action, he didn't expect that Xiaomei Qi would come over by herself.

They were just one up and one down, and now everyone is down, so Qi Xiaomei didn't need a rope anymore, so she came over by herself.

Compared to Tianyou who fell twice after being blown away, Xiaomei Qi's condition is much better.

When the explosion occurred, Xiaomei Qi was inside the building, but the main power of the biogas explosion was the explosion of detonation damage generated by the ultra-high pressure in an instant, which did not produce any fragments or temperatures. Xiaomei Qi was a semi-zombie. Although her skin was so tender that she seemed to be able to pinch out water, she was actually the hardest defense in the small group. The power of the explosion was just to make Xiaomei Qi dizzy for a moment, and she recovered before Tianyou landed. However, the collapsed roof smashed her underneath, and then she was useless to turn her down. Otherwise, she would be the first to save Tianyou.

After learning about Qi Xiaomei's situation, Hu Niu also ran back. Of course, nothing happened. How could Hu Niu's cultivation be injured by this movement? However, when the explosion occurred, she happened to be at the entrance of the cave, which was the main outlet of the explosion's power, so she also flew the farthest.

Hu Niu, who knew that she was causing trouble, was a little embarrassed to wait for Tianyou's criticism, but Tianyou didn't plan to blame her at all.

Shenzhou Continent has no knowledge of this. Hu Niu doesn’t understand the principles, and it’s not her intention to cause trouble. It’s enough to tell her that she can’t do this in the future, and there is no need to punish her.

However, although Tianyou did not plan to pursue the matter, Hu Niu herself was still a little dissatisfied and always wanted to find an opportunity to compensate. No matter what Tianyou wanted to do, she rushed to do it and wanted to atone for her sins.

Tianyou also knew that not letting her do it would make her feel uncomfortable. It just so happened that her body was in pain now, so she just ordered her to do some work.

First of all, I have to inform the people on the other side of the warship. After all, this place is not far from the sea. I have just made such a big noise and I must have heard it there. If Tianyou didn't send someone to inform me, the captain would definitely organize people to come.

Knowing that there might be monsters on the island, Tianyou didn't want the crew to go ashore to take risks, so he asked Hu Niu to explain. After she came back, she began to wisely and helped clean up the ruins.

Tianyou had originally planned to come down to see the situation here, but now the entire roof has flew away, and the lighting has improved a lot. The only problem is that the falling gravel and some tree fragments blocked their exploration, so Hu Niu could only work hard to clean it up.

After the explosion, the pieces fell down were basically fragments. Anyway, Hu Niu was very strong. She lifted the stones as big as a refrigerator and threw them out of the pit with one hand. Half of the thick log was stuck on the ground. She smashed it with a punch, grabbed it like picking up a branch and threw it out. Soon, the large pieces of fragments were cleaned up, and the situation inside the building was basically revealed.

Just as Tianyou had previously speculated, the building area is quite large. The ground is paved with flat stone slabs, and there are embossed reliefs on the surface. It is just buried deep underground all year round, and the gaps in these reliefs are filled with soil converted from rotten dead leaves, which need to be cleaned to see the pattern clearly.

After clearing a little area, you can see that the reliefs on the ground are basically the same, all of which are simple cloud patterns, exactly the same as what you saw in the Falling Heaven. Now it is basically certain that this is part of the Heavenly Palace of the Immortal Clan that crashed back then.

After roughly seeing the relief on the ground, Hu Tianyou's attention was quickly attracted by a sunken in the hall.

This recessed area was not smashed later, but one of the structures of the building itself. The recess is located in the middle of the building, and is round, with a diameter of about two meters, and there are three-stage annular steps around it to the bottom.

At the bottom of this pit, a pitch-black copper furnace was lying on the ground, and a clear hole could be seen on the outer wall, which seemed to be left a long time ago.

Hu Niu didn't understand these things, and she couldn't tell the truth after turning around the stove for a few times. However, Hu Qingxuan knew a little. "This should be a elixir furnace."

"Pill furnace? The kind of alchemy?" As soon as he heard it was a pill furnace, Hu Niu immediately came over and looked inside from the open furnace mouth.

Hu Qingxuan said with a funny look: "What are you doing? It's been so long, can you still want to find a few elixirs?"

Hu Niu didn't take Hu Qingxuan's ridicule seriously, but instead stuck half of her body into the furnace. The sound came from the furnace, with some muffled sound.

"What if there is really? Don't come in if you think it's troublesome. I've found one for you."

Tianyou was also helped by the Dan stove by the little sister Qi. Seeing that Hu Niu's body was drilling into the furnace, leaving only a round buttock twisting outside to twist, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Even if you really want to find it, it's useless."

"Why?" Hu Niu was still a little dissatisfied.

Tianyou explained with a smile: "The so-called immortal pill is just to refine materials rich in spiritual energy and extract the essence of it into crystal nuclei. Moreover, for the sake of easy absorption, the immortal pill not only cannot store spiritual power for a long time, but is particularly easy to evaporate, so that it is easier to absorb the spiritual power as soon as possible after taking it."

"So what?" Hu Niu still didn't react.

Hu Qingxuan couldn't help but pull her out, and said at the same time: "So even if the elixir is kept still, it will quickly dissipate the spiritual energy. If there is no special utensil to store and suppress the leakage of spiritual energy, the effect of ordinary immortal elixir will be reduced by half within three days, and it will be reduced by half every four to five days. Look at this, this place has been for at least a thousand years. Even if there is really a elixir inside, the spiritual energy contained in it will have already been astigmatized."

"I'm so happy! Ah... something is pricking!" Hu Niu, who finally understood that it was impossible to find the elixir in this place, was about to retreat, but his palm pressed on something and was cut into a hole.

You should know that Hu Niu is a big monster. Although the tiger monster is not good at defense, the demon clan has always cultivated her body first. With her great demon-level cultivation, her skin toughness should have reached the point where ordinary soldiers cannot be injured. However, just now, she accidentally scratched her and cut a bloody mouth. The thing below is obviously extraordinary.

Although she was scratched, Hu Niu was not a delicate lady. She didn't take it seriously at all, and she pushed away the unknown black mud deposited at the bottom of the furnace. She finally saw what scratched her, so she took it out together.

"Is this...an arrow?"

To be precise, Hu Niu only brought out an arrow, and the arrow shaft had already turned into dust under the erosion of the long river of time. But strangely, the arrow was as bright as new, and except for the surface stained with some black mud and dirt, it seemed like it was new. Tianyou took a piece of cloth and wiped it for a while and found that the cold light on the arrow was sparkling like a forged just now.

"This... looks like a baby."
