Chapter 31: Imperial Spirit Order
Chapter 31 The Imperial Spirit Order
Seven days later, Shen Long’s four people appeared in a vast green-colored bamboo forest, their speed was not fast, and their faces were full of alertness.
The breeze gusted, and some of the bamboos swayed gently.
An ear-piercing air-breaking sound sounded, dozens of two-foot-long green wind blades descended from the sky, heading straight for Shen Long’s four people.
Shen Long’s reaction was quick, immediately offering the Xuan Shui Umbrella, dropping a blue water curtain to protect him.
Several blue wind blades successively struck above the blue water screen, and the blue water screen rippled.
Xu Lei three people also cast spells to block these green wind blades, two ten feet large green mantis descended from the sky, their forelimbs were like two green scythes, flashing a burst of cold light, their heads were strangely small, their bellies were bloated, and their eyes were green.
“Late first stage Cyan Pupil Wind Mantis!”
Shen Long recognized this kind of demonic insect, which was more difficult to deal with.
A Green Pupil Wind Mantis pounced at Shen Long, and with a shake of Shen Long’s sleeve, a water tank-sized red-colored fireball flew out and met it.
A pair of mantis arms of the green pupil wind mantis crossed and swung forward, more than a dozen two-foot-long green wind blades shot out, cutting the red fireball into pieces, and the green wind blades successively struck above the blue water curtain, and a muffled sound was heard.
The Cyan Pupil Wind Mantis pounced at Shen Long, Shen Long hurriedly offered the Green Moon Scissors and met it.
A loud popping sound rang out, and a mournful hissing sound was vaguely heard, and Shen Long turned his head to see another Green Pupil Wind Mantis being cut down by four flying daggers that flashed with yellow light.
Xu Lei was holding a yellow light flashing flying dagger in his hand, his expression cold.
“Zi Mu Blade!”
Shen Long was surprised.
Most qi refining cultivators controlled at most two magic weapons at the same time, the Zi Mu Blade was a complete set of magic weapons, holding the mother blade would allow one to control the child blade, which was technically controlling a single magic weapon, however, the Zi Mu Blade was expensive, and ordinary qi refining cultivators could not afford to buy it.
Xu Lei solved a green pupil wind mantis, the yellow flying daggers in his hands lit up a burst of blinding yellow light, four yellow flying daggers came straight towards the green pupil wind mantis, Sun Yang and Qin Qing also attacked the green pupil wind mantis.
The Green Pupil Wind Mantis felt bad, its mantis arms crossed and swung forward, more than a dozen green wind blades shot out to meet it, its wings flapped gently and flew towards the sky.
A huge red-colored fireball descended from the sky and smashed onto its body, rolling flames drowned the Green Pupil Wind Mantis.
The four yellow flying daggers smashed the incoming green wind blade, and after their spiritual light rose, they disappeared into the blazing flames, Shen Long’s three people also manipulated their magic weapons to attack the Green Pupil Wind Mantis, and a pile of shattered meat fell down from the high altitude.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, I didn’t expect you to have a set of Zi Mu Blades, I haven’t seen you use them before!”
Qin Qing was filled with scorn.
“I just bought them not too long ago, this is the first time I’ve used them, and that’s why I didn’t invite any other fellow Daoists.”
Xu Lei explained.
They collected the corpse of the Green Pupil Wind Mantle and continued on their way.
Half an hour later, they walked out of the bamboo forest, and not far away was a steep peak with dense vegetation.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, where is the Purple Apricot Fruit Tree?”
Shen Long asked, he didn’t see any cave, could it be at the back of the peak?
Xu Lei sacrificed his Zi Mu Blade, and four yellow light flashing flying daggers chopped into the ground somewhere.
With a loud rumble, the ground shattered and a ten foot cave appeared in front of them.
It looked like someone had purposely covered up this place.
“What’s going on here? Fellow Daoist Xu, why did you block the cave entrance?”
Qin Qing asked in confusion.
“There is no Purple Apricot Fruit Tree at all, but rather an ancient cultivator’s cave, and the reason for blocking the cave entrance is because I don’t want other cultivators to discover it.”
Xu Lei said, his gaze fiery.
The fundamental reason he did not invite other cultivators was that he did not want to share the treasure with the others, and with four people searching for the treasure, he was better able to pin down the others, and was definitely able to get the big head.
“What? Ancient cultivator’s cave?”
Qin Qing was surprised.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, you can’t break the prohibition either?”
Shen Long was puzzled, with Xu Lei’s character, it was impossible to share with them if he was able to take it all alone. “Can’t open it, even if you use the Zi Mu Blade, it’s useless, otherwise I wouldn’t have invited you guys, the old rules, break the forbidden system, I’ll take the big head, you guys will take the small head, how about it?”
Xu Lei said.
“No problem, listen to fellow Daoist Xu.”
Sun Yang agreed with his mouth full, he had always worked together with Xu Lei.
Shen Long and Qin Qing also agreed after a brief thought, if they refused, Xu Lei would definitely kill them to silence them, of course, after breaking the ban, Xu Lei might also kill them to silence them and swallow the treasure alone.
Xu Lei and Sun Yang walked in front, while Qin Qing and Shen Long followed behind.
Shen Long’s wrist flicked and a yellow light flew out from his sleeve and did not enter the ground, it was the Iron Tail Scorpion.
The Spirit Beast Pouch was tied to his right wrist, the mouth of the pouch was always open, as long as he gave the order, the Iron Tailed Scorpion would fly out of the Spirit Beast Pouch and enter the underground ambush.
Shen Long had trained many times to guard against Xu Lei, hoping that Xu Lei would not flip out.
The cave is not big, they did not take long to come to the end, appeared in an acre of cave, the stone wall is uneven, there is no spiritual herbs and medicines, it looks nothing special, it is an abandoned cave.
Xu Lei maneuvered his Zi Mu Blade, four yellow light flashing flying daggers struck towards a certain stone wall.
After a “bang bang” muffled sound, a thick yellow light curtain then emerged, behind the yellow light curtain, you can see a humanoid corpse.
“Everyone, don’t hold back, break the restraints as soon as possible.”
After Xu Lei finished saying this, the four yellow flying daggers’ spiritual light soared, striking on top of the yellow light screen.
Shen Long’s three men all offered a medium-grade magic weapon and attacked the yellow light screen.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, the yellow light curtain shattered, and a hundred feet large simple stone room appeared in front of them, and there was a human skeleton in the center of the room.
The human skeleton was clad in a tattered green colored robe, many bones were broken, some bones were black, a green colored storage bag was tied around his waist, from the blackened bones, this person should be poisoned to death.
Xu Lei a arrow step, rushed into the stone room, a pick off the storage bag, excited.
Xu Lei will bag mouth down, gently shake, a piece of green haze swept past after the ground more than a pile of things, magic weapon, spirit stone, ore, jade brief and so on it over.
His eyes fell on a green light flashing token above, the front of the token is engraved with the word “Royal Spirit”.
Xu Lei felt that he had seen this token somewhere, just as he was recalling, a figure flew past and grabbed towards the green token.
“Bold!”
Xu Lei’s face turned cold, four yellow flying daggers went straight towards the silhouette, striking above a blue water curtain, sending out a muffled sound.
It was Shen Long!
He grabbed the green token, and the Xuan Shui Umbrella floated above his head, dropping a blue water curtain to protect him.
“Shen Long, hand over the token, and you can pick anything else.”
Xu Lei said with a gloomy face.
“Sorry, I want this token too, I don’t want anything else.”
Shen Long’s face was calm.
He had the cultivation of the seventh level of Qi Refining, Qin Qing and Sun Yang were both at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and Xu Lei was at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
“Imperial Spirit Order, that’s what the Imperial Spirit Sect rewards to cultivators who have performed great feats, with the Imperial Spirit Order, regardless of any qualifications or age, they can directly worship the Imperial Spirit Sect.”
Qin Qing also recognized the origin of that token, no wonder the two would compete for this item.
“Shen Long, are you looking for death?”
Xu Lei’s face turned cold.
“Every man for himself, I have no problem with you taking the lead every time you hunted demonic beasts in the past, but not this time.”
Shen Long said.
