Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 351 Three Demons
"The lion beast was a famous vicious bird in ancient times. Its magical powers are three times stronger than those of us late Nascent Soul cultivators. How could it appear in Kunwu Mountain?"

"It should be a backup plan left by the ancient monks to protect Kunwu Mountain. There is nothing strange about it. We don't have to worry about anything. It's just a lion beast. We have three late Nascent Soul cultivators here. How can we be afraid of it? If it dares to come again, we will just kill it." The voice of 'Elder Han' disguised as the ancient demon was cold, without any surprise.

“That’s true. But there are bound to be other accidents in Kunwu Mountain. We can’t delay here too long. Let’s rush to the Wanxiu Gate first and take turns attacking the seal on the Wanxiu Gate.” The eldest elder of the Ye family said with a change of expression.

"Yes, it will be more beneficial for us to enter the core area of ​​Kunwu Mountain earlier, and it is worth taking a little risk for this." Big Head nodded and agreed.

Even the two people with the highest cultivation in the Ye family reached a consensus, so naturally the others had no objection. They all stood up and, at the command of the Ye family's eldest elder, flew up along the stone steps.

After the lion-like beast flew away from the stone pavilion, it circled and flew down the mountain on one side.

After flying for half an hour, it suddenly landed on a huge, unusually green tree, and then made an extremely unpleasant crying sound from its mouth, like a ghost crying.

A green light flashed on the giant tree, revealing a tree hole about ten feet high. A woman in black clothes walked out from it, her face full of impatience, and a gong-like voice came out of her mouth:
"I know. Why are you yelling? If you want me to avenge you, you have to see if I have enough strength. There are three Yuanying late-stage cultivators on the opposite side. Although the two of us are level 10 big monsters that can deal with them, that's all. The other side still has many Yuanying cultivators, and none of them is easy to deal with."

"Besides, I'm not interested in doing these things. I've been trapped underwater in the dark for so many years. I finally got out and I don't want to get into any more trouble."

As the words fell, the woman's appearance was revealed.

His waist was thicker than a bucket, his skin was dark, and his hair was extremely black, but he looked extremely ugly.

The lion beast seemed to be extremely angry when he heard this. After a red light flashed in his eyes, he actually spoke in human language, but the voice was intermittent and unclear:
"Don't tell me. Those people hurt me. Protecting Kunwu Mountain is also our mission."

"What mission? Those are the descendants of the three elders of Kunwu. They imprisoned us in the soul-trapping formation and placed our natal spirit tablets in the Kunwu Temple, forcing us to guard this mountain. I won't do what they want. I just want to take back my natal spirit tablet and regain my freedom. What the human monks who broke in from outside want to do in Kunwu Mountain has nothing to do with me." The ugly woman put her hands on her hips and said to the lion beast with gritted teeth.

"Well, in that case, let's put our own spirit tablet first and let them go for now." The lion beast's red eyes also calmed down.

"But aren't there four people trapped in the soul-trapping formation? Where are the remaining two?" Suddenly the lion beast looked around and did not see the other two companions.

"I didn't see them either." The ugly woman shook her short neck. "I know that one of the other two is a silver-winged Yaksha. As for the last one, even I don't know what kind of demon beast he is."

"Don't worry about them. Their natal spirit tablets are also in Kunwu Temple. As long as they are alive, they will rush to Kunwu Temple as soon as possible. We don't need to look for them specially." The ugly woman added.

"Let's go and follow those humans, lest they enter the Kunwu Temple in advance and take away our natal spirit tablets." After the ugly woman left this sentence, she suddenly took off into the air and flew quickly towards the direction of the stone steps with the lion and the beast.

In a blink of an eye, the area under the giant tree became extremely quiet, with only the sound of breeze blowing.

I don’t know how long it took, but another seemingly ordinary tree near the giant tree suddenly shook, and then suddenly shrank from big to small.

Enshrouded in a green light, a bulge appeared somewhere on the surface of the tree, and suddenly two huge green eyeballs appeared.

The eyeballs were unusually green, and as they turned slightly, they looked coldly in the direction where the lion, beast and ugly woman disappeared, without a trace of emotion.

It turned out that the tree was transformed from an unknown monster. It was incredible that the two monsters, the Lion Beast and the Ugly Lady, had such amazing magical powers that they did not even notice the monster so close to them.

"The Silver-winged Yaksha is missing? Was he killed by someone, or did he escape from the soul-trapping formation in advance?"

The monster stared at the sky for a long time, and suddenly a green light flashed around its body. With a "whoosh", the tree it transformed into burrowed into the ground and disappeared.

At this moment, the place was truly quiet and no one was around.

However, for Nie Zhaonan who was refining the elixir, everything on Kunwu Mountain at this time had nothing to do with him. It was not the time for him to take action yet, so he was waiting for an opportunity.

Inside the huge mountain, everyone had already restored their magic power to its peak and were silently watching Nie Zhaonan refining the elixir.

Unlike Nie Zhaonan's fellow Taoists who surrounded the alchemy furnace and watched it closely, Han Li and Bai Yaoyi sat at the edge of the cave, quietly looking at the alchemy furnace in front of Nie Zhaonan without blinking.

Suddenly, three feet off the ground, the slowly rotating alchemy furnace suddenly stopped and instantly stopped rotating. At the same time, a buzzing sound came from it, and the fragrance of medicine also spread.

Han Li, who was watching from afar, couldn't help but sniff, with a look of regret on his face. If Senior Brother Nie hadn't shown up later, the Yinzhi horse would have been his.

Nie Zhaonan's eyes lit up, and the magic spells in his hands and the infant fire in his mouth paused at the same time. He bent his fingers with one hand again, and with a "bang", a ball of silver light hit the top cover of the alchemy furnace.

As a result, the top cover trembled and floated up on its own.

The buzzing sound in the alchemy furnace paused, and immediately five fist-sized balls of light shot out from it. In the white light, there was a thumb-sized green ball faintly visible in each, which was emerald green and sparkling.

These balls of light circled above the alchemy furnace for a moment before dispersing in all directions and escaping away.

But Nie Zhaonan seemed to have expected it. He flicked his sleeves and no unusual phenomenon appeared. However, five balls of light were fixed in the air. The light gradually faded away, revealing the emerald green and crystal clear infant-cultivating pill.

"Okay, it's done." Nie Zhaonan let out a light breath, glanced at the faces of all the Taoist companions, and smiled.

"There are only five Nascent Soul Pills, but except for Sister Nangong and Yin Yue, there are seven of us who have not reached the late Nascent Soul stage, and we all need this pill." Looking at the five pills in the air, Nie Ying said hesitantly.

"There is no need to hesitate. Each of you will take one of these five elixirs." Nie Zhaonan stretched out his hand and flicked it. Five elixirs flew towards Nie Ying, Chen Qiaoqian, Yuan Yao, Wang Ning and Ling Yuling.

The five girls just looked at the pills in front of them and hesitated to put them away. Ling Yuling spoke out their concerns:
"But what about Ruyin and Songyu?"

Nie Zhaonan didn't care and said calmly, "Ruyin and Song Yu have just entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. It will take decades for them to reach the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. By the time they need elixirs to help them advance, it will be decades later."

"And the five of you have almost cultivated your magic power to the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. As long as you refine this Nurturing Pill, you should be able to become late stage Nascent Soul cultivators within ten years. Only in this way can the effect of this Nurturing Pill be brought into play to a greater extent."

"Don't worry, in a few decades, it won't be difficult to find two more elixirs like Peiying Pill."

Finally, Nie Zhaonan said something to comfort her.

"Yes. After we become late Nascent Soul cultivators, we will also search for elixirs for Ruyin and Song Yu." Nie Ying, Chen Qiaoqian and other girls couldn't help but look at each other, and said as if they had telepathic connection.

However, when it comes to Xin Ruyin, Nie Zhaonan feels helpless again. He doesn't know when she can break through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

But because he wanted to delve into the 'Great Array of Ten Thousand Trees', one thing was destined: Xin Ruyin would be the last one among his fellow Taoists to advance to the late Nascent Soul stage.

"Put away the Peiying Pill first, to prevent its medicinal properties from being lost." Nie Zhaonan reminded without further thought.

Nie Ying, Chen Qiaoqian, Yuan Yao, Wang Ning, and Ling Yuling all nodded slightly, and simultaneously patted the storage bags at their waists, took out exquisite wooden boxes, put their respective infant-cultivating pills into the boxes, and put them away.

At this moment, Han Li, who was watching from the side, had red eyes and his body felt numb.

What do you mean five infant-cultivating pills are not enough?
What does it mean that it is not difficult to find a similar elixir again?
What was the point of Han Li's searching in the Yin Yang Cave for more than half a year?
Bai Yaoyi was also full of envy, and her heart was like waves rolling, quite restless:
"This fellow Daoist Nie is really too generous to his fellow Daoist. He gave away spiritual elixirs like the Nurturing Infant Pill as a gift. In the world of immortal cultivation, even among blood relatives, it is rare to see such free gifts."

"It seems that the cultivation of these fairies is largely due to the help of Fellow Daoist Nie. That's why they can cultivate to a level similar to mine at this age."

Just as Han Li and Bai Yaoyi's thoughts were wandering, the entire cave suddenly shook slightly, followed by a dull rumbling sound that came faintly from the surrounding stone walls, continuously.

"Are there other people in Kunwu Mountain?" Bai Yaoyi and Han Li couldn't help but look at each other.

Nie Zhaonan looked at the cave entrance and said, "They should be the group that broke the seal of Kunwu Mountain. They should be breaking the restrictions on Kunwu Mountain at this moment. Judging from the continuous offensive, it seems that things are not going well."

"Indeed, it seems that they are blocked in front of a powerful ban and cannot break the ban in a short period of time. Moreover, the noise of breaking the ban has been transmitted to us." Nangong Wan felt the sound coming from the air and murmured his analysis.

"Are we going to explore Kunwu Mountain now?" Ling Yulin spoke quickly, seeming quite impatient.

"It's almost done, let's go." Nie Zhaonan was surrounded by spiritual light, and the silver moon transformed into a four-tailed fox and flew into his sleeves. After that, he turned into a green rainbow without hesitation and took the lead to escape from the cave along the bluestone steps.

Nie Zhaonan's fellow Taoists naturally controlled their escape lights without thinking and followed him.

Han Li did not follow immediately, but looked at Bai Yaoyi beside him and invited her:

"Brother Nie has a group of Taoist companions with him, so he probably can't take care of the two of us. Brother Bai, how about we team up and explore Kunwu Mountain?"

Bai Yaoyi glanced at the backs of Nie Zhaonan and the others, hesitated slightly, and then nodded:
"Fellow Daoist Nie just said that there are beings in Kunwu Mountain that are not weaker than the Silver-winged Yaksha, not to mention other cultivators who have entered this mountain. It can be said that it is not safer than the Yin-Yang Cave, and it is even more dangerous. It would be great if I could explore Kunwu Mountain with Fellow Daoist Han, and we can take care of each other. Naturally, I would love to do so."

Han Li did not care about Bai Yaoyi's hesitation. To be honest, in such a dangerous place like Kunwu Mountain, he also wanted to team up with Senior Brother Nie. That way, he could at least save his life.

"Let's go." Han Li, with a green light, quickly chased after Nie Zhaonan and his group.

Bai Yaoyi stomped her jade feet and chased after him, riding the white light.

Soon the two caught up with Nie Zhaonan and his group and followed them silently.

The group's escape speed was not fast, they only maintained the escape speed of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, flying all the way upwards.

After flying for a while, the stairs in front of me remained the same.

Han Li was surprised. It was incredible that he had not flown out of this passage after such a long time.

If he hadn't seen that Senior Brother Nie didn't show anything unusual, he would have thought that they were trapped in a restricted area.

With a depressed mood, Han Li flew for several miles and finally saw the light of the exit, and he felt relieved.

After flying out of the passage, Nie Zhaonan felt his eyes brighten, and he appeared on a huge platform. The ground was covered with bluestone bricks, which seemed to be a thousand feet wide. After taking a deep breath, the fragrance of grass and flowers penetrated into his lungs.

Others also looked around curiously.

In front of me, at the end of the platform, I saw a mountain wall rising straight up. I looked up along the mountain wall and saw that it was full of green, with no end in sight.
"This mountain seems to be bigger than the holy mountain in our Tianxing City, but how much bigger it is is impossible to tell right now." Ling Yulin stared at the giant mountain in front of her in a daze and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

Looking at the endless Kunwu Mountain, Nie Zhaonan was slightly surprised:

"The Holy Mountain is as high as a pillar that supports the sky. It can be divided into eighty-one layers, so many cultivators can set up caves there. Naturally, it is extremely large. However, Kunwu Mountain is known as the number one fairy mountain in the human world, so it is naturally not inferior to the Holy Mountain."

It's not that he was not mentally prepared, but Kunwu Mountain was so huge that it was unimaginable. Nie Zhaonan felt a little uneasy when he saw the mountain for the first time.
