Original God: I can earn experience points

Chapter 510 Hua Qing Returns to the Secret Palace (Two in One)

The river between Guiliyuan and Cuijuepo is sparkling in the sun, giving it a pastoral feel.

After Li Qiuzhi and Keqing marked the underground space of the ruins and wrote on wooden signs as clues, they followed Ye Lan and a group of tied-up hillbillies to the vicinity of the river.

During this time, he and Keqing also paid attention to whether there were any safety hazards near the road.

"Is this the place where the mutated Red Devil King was found?"

Keqing, wearing purple lapel high heels, hugged her chest and looked at the slowly flowing river.

"That's what the eyewitnesses said. We still have to fish it out to know for sure." Ye Lan brushed the hair on the side of her face.

She looked at Li Qiuzhi and handed over the aquamarine thread in her hand:
"As the only man among us, I'll leave this troublesome matter to you."

"Since you've said that, I'd be ungentlemanly if I refuse." Li Qiuzhi took the silk thread made of water element and did not refuse Ye Lan's request:

"But my fishing skills are really not that good. Whether I can catch the fish depends on luck."

He used his mental power to explore the bottom of the water, but did not find any suspected targets for the time being, so he had to try to use the Hillichul people to attract it over.

"The Red Devil is a very ferocious fish. After it has grown to a gigantic size, it seems to no longer care about ordinary bait. I hope these hillbillies can attract it."

Ye Lan said with a sigh.

She had been fishing here for the entire morning, and had set up five or six nests at different locations simultaneously, but had not found any Red Devil King.

However, she caught a lot of other fish and released them all.

Li Qiuzhi nodded and looked at the tied up hillbilly monsters. He killed them all first and gained some experience points.

Then he used the wind element to roll them up and threw them into the river. The bloody smell unique to monsters flowed away with the river water.

The next thing to do is to wait patiently.

Li Qiuzhi pulled the aqua blue silk thread, and together with Keqing and Ye Lan, they found a place with shade from trees and sat down to wait.

It was just around noon, so I prepared to grab some dry food to eat.

But at this moment, his mental power sensed a strong breath appearing downstream of the river, slowly approaching the "bait".

"what happened?"

Keqing looked at Li Qiuzhi who seemed to be lost in thought and asked. Her long purple hair and the long skirt connected to her sleeves swayed slightly as she put her hands together and placed them under her chest.

"I sense a big fish coming. It looks like the Red Devil King we are looking for."

Li Qiuzhi answered with a slightly happy tone.

I didn’t expect that I was quite talented in fishing. I thought that as a newbie I would come up empty-handed!
"Should we catch it or just get rid of it?" His mental power has now locked onto the huge red devil king.

There is no need to wait for it to bite the hook, you can catch it in an instant.

However, the specific approach still depends on Ye Lan's opinion. After all, this is the mission she is carrying out.

It's not good to overshadow the guest.

"Wait." Ye Lan also placed her hands on her upper abdomen and slightly lifted her chest. She looked down at the ground and thought for a moment:
“Since we have lured the Red Devil out, it is not difficult to capture it. However, although those fish can use the fire element in some way, they are not monsters.

"It is extremely rare for a bird to grow that big, so if there is no accident, there must be some external factors that affected it.

"Before we deal with it, let's find a way to follow it and investigate if there is anything abnormal in the place where it usually lives."

Li Qiuzhi pinched the aqua blue thread and stroked it. He nodded in agreement and said:

"That's true. To solve a problem, we must solve the root of the problem. Otherwise, even if we deal with this Red Devil, there may be another one."

"What are we waiting for? Let's go and take a look." Keqing put down her hands that were hugging her chest and placed her hands on her soft waist.

With Keqing around, Li Qiuzhi and Ye Lan were influenced by her to stop procrastinating at work and become more efficient.

They quickly approached the river, but not too close to avoid being noticed by the mutated Red Devil King.

Through the clear water, they could see a large fish as red as lava slowly approaching the corpses of the monsters.

"Ah."

Ye Lan chuckled, and while the Red Demon King was enjoying his food, the aqua blue silk thread used to tie up the monster silently wrapped around the tail of the big fish.

Because the silk thread is made of water elements, its touch and color blend with the flowing water in the river, and the Red Demon King cannot detect it at all.

Before long, all the monsters were eaten by the Red Demon King. It seemed that it was full and began to wander slowly in the river.

Li Qiuzhi and the others were not in a hurry, for fear of scaring it away to some other place instead of returning to its own nest.

The Red Devil King didn't hang around for long. After eating a few small fish as dessert, it turned around and swam back.

"I remember this river leads to Luhua Pond, right? Could it be that the Red Demon King lives there?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Keqing's fair face, and she guessed, holding her lower lip.

"The water there is relatively calm, and the underwater environment is also very good. It's not surprising that the Red Devil King lives there."

Ye Lan moved her long legs in tight leather pants, took the aqua blue silk thread from Li Qiuzhi and walked in front.

The snow-white skin revealed by the hollowed-out legs is even more dazzling under the bright sunlight.

Li Qiuzhi and Keqing were walking two steps behind him. He secretly reached out and hugged Keqing's waist from behind, and took the opportunity to stroke her thighs which were tightly covered with black stockings.

Due to Ye Lan's presence, Keqing didn't want to argue with Li Qiuzhi. She just glared at him angrily and then pretended nothing had happened.

Smiling silently, Li Qiuzhi wisely stopped stroking her soft thighs and instead stopped moving his hand on her abdomen.

If Keqing gets mad, it will be bad for him.

Time flowed like water in a river, and half an hour passed just like that.

At this time, Ye Lan in front stopped, looked at the lake in front, turned around and said, "Okay, stop being so affectionate, we have arrived at Luhua Pond."

"Hmph!" A faint blush appeared on Keqing's fair face. She pushed Li Qiuzhi away and took two steps forward to ask:
"Where is the Red Devil now?"

Keqing has not yet completed her sixth breakthrough and is temporarily unable to release her mental power, but when the Red Demon King disappeared from her sight, he really disappeared.

Now, only Ye Lan, who is holding the aqua blue silk thread, and Li Qiuzhi, who has been using his mental power to lock onto the Red Demon King, should still be able to track him down.

"Go to the ruins in the center of the lake, and let's go over and see what's going on."

Ye Lan continued to walk forward with her legs stretched out. The tight leather trousers made the round and soft lines of her buttocks more obvious, and they twisted slightly as she walked.

The green grass on the river bank brushed against the sides of her high heels. Keqing and Ye Lan walked side by side, no longer giving Li Qiuzhi the chance to stick to her.

Feeling it was a pity, Li Qiuzhi had no choice but to follow obediently.

Soon they walked to a ruin by the river, from where they could see from afar a ruin in the center of Luhua Pond. It was obvious that there was a formation in the ruin.

"Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace. Legend has it that there are many caves in this relic, among which there is a sea of ​​clouds cave, where its owner, the demon god Chen, studies mechanical science.

“There is also a Water Moon Cave Heaven, which hides many secret treasures. Unfortunately, the existence of the formation has stopped countless adventurers who coveted this place.

"They have no way to deal with this. Perhaps only immortals can understand the mystery of this place."

Ye Lan's arms were pressed against her upper abdomen, which was covered with semi-transparent black stockings. Through her arms and the semi-transparent black stockings, one could vaguely see the snow-white skin of her upper abdomen.

"Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace. Did Yelan just say that the Red Demon King swam near there?"

When Li Qiuzhi plays games, if he doesn't have gems to draw cards, he will explore the big world to solve puzzles and open treasure chests.

Therefore, I also know something about this Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace.

After solving the puzzle, the formation disappears and you can fly down from the cave in the middle of the ruins. There is a secret realm below, which is the Yunhai Cave.

And under the Huaqing Guizang Secret Palace, there is a hidden Shuiyue Cave.

The one at the back is nothing special, but the cloud sea cave at the front is where the Demon God of Dust returned. If I remember correctly, there seem to be several ancient evil objects stored in it.

The Red Demon King has grown so big, could it be related to those ancient evil creatures? Li Qiuzhi couldn't help but guess.

"My 'Life-Locking Thread' has indeed spread over there, so I'm sure it's correct."

Ye Lan lightly tapped her fair chin.

"Where is the Red Devil's lair? Is it because of some accident in the ruins that it has grown so big?"

Keqing and Li Qiuzhi thought of the same thing.

"We can't rule out this possibility. Let's go over and confirm whether the Red Devil King usually lives here, and then see if there are any unexpected changes in the ruins."

Ye Lan made a decision and took the two of them along the water-blue silk thread to the ruins in the lake to find the Red Demon King.

Watching it swimming leisurely back and forth in the water, bullying other small fish in Luhua Pond, it looked like the bully of the village.

Li Qiuzhi and his companions were certain that this was where the Red Demon King usually lived, and also its lair.

After understanding the situation clearly, Li Qiuzhi, under Ye Lan's instructions, directly ended the arrogant and domineering life of the Red Demon King!
[Defeat powerful enemies and gain 5262 experience points. 】

Li Qiuzhi looked at the prompt that popped up on the character panel and found that this Red Demon King was actually stronger than many monsters. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant.

"Now it's your turn to show off. Use your mental power to sense if there is anything unusual nearby."

Ye Lan knew that Li Qiuzhi was much better than herself, so she decided to let him handle this troublesome task.

"Row."

Li Qiuzhi did not refuse this simple task.

The majestic spiritual power silently enveloped the entire ruins located in the center of Luhua Pond, carefully sensing the situation here.

The elements and ley lines in the environment were functioning normally, and no ominous energies were present.

He continued to sense the formation in the ruins.

"Ok?"

Li Qiuzhi let out a light exclamation.

"What's wrong?" Keqing looked at Li Qiuzhi.

“There’s something wrong with the formation here. A node in a certain position has stopped working, causing the circulation of the elemental force in the formation to become stuck.

"If this continues, there may be a slight gap in the supply of elemental power in two or three months, causing the power of the entire formation to weaken."

Li Qiuzhi explained using his limited knowledge of formations.

"Well done. If there are no other abnormalities, then it seems that there is probably something wrong with the formation node that stopped working, causing the Red Demon King living nearby to mutate."

Ye Lan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and developed some affection for Li Qiuzhi.

[Yelan has a good impression of you and gains 330 favorability points. The current favorability level is Lv. 6 (530/600)]

"Okay, follow me." Li Qiuzhi nodded and led Ye Lan and Keqing to the failed formation node he discovered.

This formation node is located in the southeast corner of the ruins. It is a square monument of fire element. For some unknown reason, a corner is missing from the bottom.

"The Elemental Monument is protected by a formation. Attacking it is almost the same as attacking the formation directly. Generally speaking, it is difficult to destroy."

Keqing looked puzzled.

"Because of the missing corner of this fire element monument, the elemental power it absorbed was not provided to the formation, but leaked out from the bottom. Could it be that the red devil swam near here and was very lucky to survive the elemental erosion, so it became so big?"

Li Qiuzhi felt that he had guessed the truth.

"That may be the case." Ye Lan also felt that there was nothing wrong with Li Qiuzhi's speculation. It was quite reasonable and logical. She stared at the gap in the elemental monument and thought:

"It's difficult to destroy the Elemental Monument from the outside, so it's very likely that something went wrong inside the formation. We may have to unlock the seal and go inside the ruins to find out the specific situation."

"It will take more than a short time to figure out the rules of this formation and solve it."

Keqing said, crossing her arms.

She still has work to do to check for potential road hazards, so she can't stay here for long.

"Then leave it to me. I have a way to quickly make this formation ineffective."

Li Qiuzhi said with a smile.

When Yun Jin's favorability reaches the maximum level, the favorability skill given is "Flying Cloud Flag Formation". With this ability, he can summon flag phantoms to act as formation nodes and arrange various formations at will.

No matter what formation is arranged, it has the three additional effects of "attack, defense, and trap", which is a very powerful ability.

Now he doesn't need to set up any formation. He just needs to summon the phantom of the flag, insert it into the formation node here, and snatch away the elemental power they absorb.

Without the support of energy, any formation will collapse.

“Hmph, stop being so mysterious. Hurry up and do it,” Keqing urged.

Li Qiuzhi nodded slightly. He had never really tried out the "Flying Cloud Flag Formation" skill, and now was the right opportunity to give it a try.

The skill was activated in the blink of an eye, and the shadow of a rock-yellow flag appeared in his hand.

It felt light as a feather in the hand and there was no strange feeling. Li Qiuzhi carefully looked at the intricate pattern on it.

Then it was inserted next to the Fire Element Monument.
