Unlike Mount Cheng, the yellow-haired spearhead is different from Mount Cheng. Its overall mountain strata is three-stage. It is precisely because of this feature that the strength of the spirit beasts in the mountain is gradually divided.

On the outermost periphery of Huangmaojian, the spirit beasts everywhere are not too powerful. Most of them are second-level spirit beasts. Only a very small number of third-level spirit beasts will appear. This is also the area that disciples of major sects often come and go when they form teams to travel. After entering the middle section, the number of spirit beasts in the mountains began to decrease significantly, but their strength gradually increased.

In the middle mountain range, it is basically difficult to see the second-level spirit beasts. The reason is naturally because, as primitive and pure creatures, they are full of blood and killing each other. If those with poor strength break into the middle area, they will only become the Chinese food for other spirit beasts in vain.

The yellow haired needle still looks like it should be. It does not show an extremely abnormal phenomenon like climbing the back mountain. The former is mostly silent, such as when there are no spirit beasts fighting each other, such as when the sunlight is warm.

Xu Yan now roughly understood why there were so many spirit beasts flying around in the area where the mountain was climbing the mountain, even at the outermost periphery. The reason was very simple. Those spirit beasts that should have grown in the hinterland of the northern part and even near the Evil River should have felt the toxicity and crisis contained in the floating fog in advance, so they had to escape from the fog before the fog was fatal to them. Only when the monster in the Sanjing River stopped spreading the fog would they return to the northern area.

After three days of separation with Chen Qinghe and others, Xu Yan, who was walking alone at Huangmaojian and about to enter the middle mountain range, suddenly asked Xiao Cai in his consciousness: "Do you know what kind of spirit beast is the monster growing in Sanjing Creek? Logically speaking, such a powerful spirit beast should not have appeared outside Dushan. Moreover, Wu Hao can force him to flee wildly, probably has broken through to the level seven. No matter how bad it is, he must have the strength of the late stage of level six. In addition, why does it spray out those mist every fifteen years?"

In the past three days since entering Huangmaojian, with the help of Xiaocai's perception, Xu Yan has hunted more than ten spirit beasts with inner elixirs, but they are all third-level spirit beasts, and half of them are treated as rewards and swallowed directly into Xiaocai's body.

All of those inner elixirs contain extremely powerful energy, but for Xu Yan himself, because Chen Qinghe was instructed by him, he did not choose to swallow it directly. However, Xiao Cai's body is a colorful sky-swallowing python, and it has reached the late stage of level 5. The strength of its body is quite good. There will be no problem with its body to withstand the backlash of these third-level spirit beasts after swallowing the inner elixirs.

Xiao Cai swallowed the inner elixir of a level 3 spirit beast half an hour ago. At this moment, she was digesting the energy it brought to herself for her own use. However, after hearing the question from Xu Yan, it chose to stop practicing first. Xiao Cai didn't know why Xu Yan suddenly asked this question, but just replied truthfully: "I don't know what species it is, but I can be sure that it appeared in Sanjingxi much earlier than me, and it must be at least four or five hundred years."

When Xu Yan heard this, he couldn't help frowning. The spiritual beast that had grown for such a long time was that even if the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in the forest was barren, its strength should not be underestimated. He looked a little ugly and asked, "What about the other question."

Xiao Cai said bluntly: "I certainly don't know the specific reason for those fogs. The current rule has only appeared in recent decades. This is the third time since I appeared in this area."

After hearing this, Xu Yan shook his head, obviously this question was in vain.

Seeing Xu Yan's face turned ugly and fell into silence, Xiao Cai sent a message and asked, "Why are you asking this? You shouldn't have the idea of ​​making it?"

Xu Yan grinned and replied, "How could this be? I'm not so arrogant yet. Even if I encounter a slightly more fierce and rough level 5 spirit beast, I have to escape. I dare to deal with it? I think my life is almost the same. Of course, you don't count."

"Hey, what do you mean? I'm now at the late stage of level 5. My cultivation is much higher than yours. Besides, I can't take you before, it's not true that I can't take you down.

I really can't take you. I just don't want to use my natal trick, otherwise you would have been my tummy meal long ago."

After hearing this, Xu Yan couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, okay, you're amazing, then after entering the middle section of Huangmaojian, if you encounter any spiritual beast again, you will leave it to you to deal with it. You can also take this opportunity to exercise your practical ability, so that you can save you from encountering opponents of the same level in the future, and you will only use your own body to throw it away."

When Xiao Cai heard that he was going to fight, he was lazy by nature and was unhappy. He immediately said angrily: "I don't, I don't want to fight. As long as you give me more inner alchemy spirit herbs, my strength will naturally rise slowly."

Seeing its IQ, Xu Yan was still like a minor girl, and said with a slight look on his face: "You have to figure it out, this is not that I deliberately wanted to work as a hard worker for you, but that since you are going to take a different path of cultivation than your nature, you have to learn to change your original practice method first. I told you this from the beginning, and the transformation technique I gave you can certainly allow you to grow to the point of transformation, but you really don't want to reach the point of turning into a dragon?"

Xu Yan continued: "If you still rely on swallowing external objects to improve your realm, then even if you truly break through to the transformation stage, at most you will be a more special colorful sky-swallowing python, and you will not be able to completely shed the python body and become a dragon."

Hearing Xu Yan's righteous admonition, Xiao Cai muttered in grievance: "But even if I participate in the battle, I may not be able to really turn the dragon into a dragon. Moreover, we are not used to being competitive. Can we just increase the killing, and we can turn the dragon into a dragon?"

Xu Yan saw that he was a little thankless and impatient, but he finally chose to reveal some secrets of heaven and said, "Of course not, I just want you to change your gentle nature first. Species evolution involves fighting against the rules between this world. I won't explain the risks to you in detail, but they are definitely not something you can imagine now. In addition, whether it is transformation or evolution, you need to have strong enough strength to be the foundation, otherwise how can you successfully survive the heavenly tribulation?"

Seeing that Xiaocai fell into silence, Xu Yan did not continue to put pressure on it, and his tone softened, and then said, "Okay, what I said to you just now is true, but the final decision is still in your own hands. If you don't want to, I will naturally not force you. As long as the time comes, no matter whether you can transform in the end, I will take the initiative to lift the blood relationship between you and me and give you freedom."

After Xiao Cai was silent for a long time, she was not confused about this issue. She just said to Xu Yan hesitantly: "I have a question, can I ask..."

Xu Yan seemed to have expected what she would ask, so she interrupted her and said calmly: "I know what you want to ask, but those things are still out of reach for you and me now. If one day, you can really grow to the point where I can keep you by my side, then everything you want to know will naturally be known, right?"

Xu Yan suddenly sighed as if he was talking to himself, and said quietly: "I know too much, but it is not a good thing!"

...

Two hours later.

Based on the road he had walked before, Xu Yan came to the area that he had been extremely familiar with. It was the place where he landed with the help of the disordered rules of heaven and earth eight hundred years ago after escaping a drop of blood from the sky. At the same time, this was also the place where he personally killed Zhou Mi, Luo Tong, and the disciples of Chenyang Sect after inheriting Xu Yan's body a few months ago.

Looking at this familiar scene, Xu Yan couldn't help but feel a little moved by the scene, but it was obvious that after a period of storm, the battle traces left before were completely gone. Only the half-broken sword covered by fallen leaves could vaguely remind Xu Yan of the cruel life-and-death duel before.

At that time, his swordsmanship was only two floors, and the first three acupoints of martial arts were forced to passively break out, and his foundation was not stable at all. If Yan Ziyi hadn't been too cautious by nature, it would be different whether he could survive at that time. After all, the two brothers of Chen at that time were seriously injured, and they were also far away.

This place is far away, and as for him, it is impossible for him to have a second drop of blood to be resurrected. On the other hand, Yan Ziyi and Xu Niu were basically at their peak at that time. If they were really brave and dared to rush forward, then Xu Yan would definitely die when he was almost exhausted at that time.

Looking at the half-slash sword under his feet, Xu Yan carefully reviewed the experience he had experienced before in his mind, but still couldn't help but sigh for it.

Xu Yan has not experienced such a life and death situation. Even in the countless years he has existed, it is very common to walk through the gates of hell, but there is no doubt that the most steepest time was in front of the sky that connects the other side of the world, and was attacked by someone in conjunction with the power of the rules of heaven and earth.

That sword can be said to be the most powerful sword in the entire heaven that Xu Yan came into contact with. Although it was still unable to completely kill him in the end, it destroyed the supreme power he had obtained in his entire life and brought him back to his original form when he was born.

Feeling Xu Yan's ups and downs in his heart at this moment, Xiao Cai hesitated for a moment before he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"

When Xu Yan heard this, he slowly shook his head, without any intention of sharing it with him, and replied casually, "It's nothing, I've just been here before and I feel that I'm still familiar with it."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Xiao Cai did not insist on asking. After all, she gradually realized that Xu Yan was not like a novice who had just entered the world of cultivation. As for his personality, he was a person with a strong sense of self. If he was willing to share something with you, he would never hide it, but if his bottom line was involved, he would never reveal any information.

Xu Yan stayed there for about half a quarter of an hour before walking forward, then said to Xiao Cai: "By the way, after entering this area, we have come to the middle of the middle section of Huangmaojian Mountain. If we continue walking for half a day, we will go to the upper section of the mountain range, which is the only mountain range connected to Dushan. However, because the spirit beasts grown inside are relatively strong, we disciples of the cultivation sect dare not enter it at will to collect herbs and hunt. I think over the years, there should be many precious spiritual herbs growing inside. You should use your role as a medicine beast. As for the reward, it should be calculated according to the method agreed before. I will leave half of it, and the remaining half will be given to you. How about it?"

Xiao Cai certainly had no objection to this. After all, if it came to this mountain range to look for spiritual herbs, it would inevitably attract some spiritual beasts to fight. Although as a late-stage spirit beast in the fifth level, its cultivation level is already quite good among the mountains of the Baishan Ancestors, it is not particularly familiar with fighting and fighting. Therefore, even when facing a truly fierce level 4 spirit beast, it may inevitably be injured.

Seeing Xu Yan so easy to talk, Xiao Cai immediately replied: "Of course it's okay. I'll tell you, I've already smelled the breath of the spiritual grass now."

Since she had entered this deep mountain area and no longer had to worry about meeting disciples from other sects halfway, Xu Yan did not continue to hide her body in her cuffs, but asked her to lie on her shoulders, while walking, let her feel the breath of spiritual herbs growing in this mountain range.

After getting Xiao Cai's recognition, the benefits to Xu Yan were obvious, because he followed the way and collected a lot of spiritual herbs from it. Therefore, her name as a medicine beast is definitely not a false reputation. As long as she enters her perception range, she can clearly capture the breath and location of those spiritual herbs by revealing her snake letter. At the same time, she can also sense the breath of spiritual beasts. This is undoubtedly the most powerful help to Xu Yan's mission to complete the city hunting.

Xu Yan asked, "I'll rush over now when it grows."

Xiao Cai replied bluntly: "It's about two miles ahead of you left."

After getting the accurate answer, Xu Yan replied with a very brief word, and then accelerated his pace and headed forward quickly.

It was only a distance of two miles. For Xu Yan's walking distance, it only took about two quarters of an hour to successfully arrive. However, when he arrived here, he realized the scene in front of him.

It turned out to be a cliff.

Xu Yan looked at the bare cliff in front of him. There was a Baizhang Valley under the cliff. He immediately asked Xiao Cai with a slightly cold face: "There is only this cliff in front of him. On such a steep stone wall, I don't even think there is a little soil. Not to mention whether there will be spiritual grass growing on it, even ordinary weeds are difficult to grow. You can't feel it wrong."

After hearing this, Xiao Cai, who was lying on Xu Yan's right shoulder, vomited a snake letter and replied: "Of course not. The breath of this spiritual herb is nearby. I am very sure that you can be sure. You should first stick your body out of the cliff and take a look."

Seeing that it was so confident, and over the past period of time, Xu Yan had no doubt that it would deceive him. Then he followed its advice and steadily grabbed the rock with one hand, while poked out most of his body, and then he found that there was a cave that seemed to be purely natural on the shade of this cliff.

The entrance to this cave is not big, it is semicircular, with the widest part about one meter, and the height is about one meter or three feet.

Xiao Cai asked, "How about it, have you ever seen the spiritual herbs?"

When Xu Yan saw that scene, he said angrily: "I didn't see the spiritual herb, but there is one cave. Could it be that spiritual herb grows in the cave?"

Xiao Cai replied: "Yes, since there is no trace of it on the cliff, it must have grown in this cave. Anyway, I have told you the specific location, but whether to pick it is your own business."

Xu Yan didn't care about the other party's tone so quickly to entertain himself. However, when he saw that if he wanted to collect this spiritual herb, the risk he had to bear was not small, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is this spiritual herb? Can you feel it? If it is not very important to me, then forget it. After all, it is not easy for me to enter that cave. This cliff is a hundred feet high. If I accidentally fall to the bottom of the valley, it will be a pile of meat paste."

Xiao Cai hesitated for a moment and said a little hesitantly: "Well... if I didn't feel it wrong, it should be... it should be a 'transformed grass' that has grown for about seventy years."

"Cross grass?"

When Xu Yan heard this answer, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. The Transformation Grass was indeed useless to him, but it was quite useful to a spirit beast like Xiaocai, because although its name was quite exaggerated, the Transformation Grass, which had been growing for seventy years, could at least increase its cultivation for thirty years if it was given to Xiaocai's current suit.

Seeing Xu Yan's face feeling a little embarrassed, Xiao Cai naturally didn't dare to force him, so he took the initiative to speak, "This transformed grass is really useless to you, otherwise let's forget it. Anyway, there are more than this spiritual grass in this mountain range, we'll just look for it again."

After hearing Xiao Cai say this, how could Xu Yan not know her thoughts? Otherwise, why would she not say it was a transformed grass, but she would have to wait until he came here before saying it? Xu Yan couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Little Snake Spirit, I have a lot of thoughts. I think you should have been the reincarnation of a vixen in your previous life."

Without waiting for Xiaocai to argue, Xu Yan continued to ask: "By the way, there should be no powerful spirit beast hidden in this cave, right?"

When Xiao Cai heard that the other party was going to take the risk to pick transformed grass for him, he couldn't help but say joyfully: "No, there is nothing inside, you can rest assured a hundred times."

When Xu Yan heard the other party say this, he sighed helplessly, but then he stopped hesitating and walked out of the cliff sideways, and slowly crawled towards the cave along the uneven cliff.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Xu Yan finally entered the cave, but before he could check the situation inside, a pair of golden eyes opened suddenly in the darkness of the cave.
Chapter completed!
