Lie flat and start from spirit beasts

Lu Yao ran carefully in the night wind. Every time he landed, he tried to let the small pads of his paws hit the ground first.

The climate here in Linghu Village has four distinct seasons. It is already early winter, and the cold wind at night is very biting.

Let the flesh pads on the paws hit the ground first, and there will be no sound, but the biting cold will come.

This kind of night detective work is really not done by humans.

Lu Yao cursed in his heart as he ran.

"Meow~~~Boss, what are you doing? Why are you running so slowly?"

Xiaojin had already explored the entire warning area, and when he came back, he found that Lu Yao had only moved a dozen meters.

"Meow~~~Who told you to make a sound? What if the guards are alerted?"

Lu Yao said angrily, but still suppressed his voice and did not dare to speak louder.

"Meow~~~ I have already checked, and most of their guards are fast asleep. There are only four people on duty, but they are all rubbing their hands in a room over there."

Xiaojin immediately rushed to Lu Yao's side and reported.

Lu Yao was stunned when he heard this, these guys are not dedicated!

"Meow~~~Why didn't you tell me earlier? You really don't want me to suffer from the cold, right?"

"Meow~~~ You didn't ask me, boss, before?"

"Meow~~~ Stop grinding, hurry up, it will be daybreak in a while!"

After Lu Yao roared, he increased his speed and started running.

Xiao Jin was stunned. Is the boss running at this speed?

Are you kidding me?

…

After passing through the security area, Xiao Jin and Lu Yao officially entered the area where Linghu Village is located.

According to the detailed information given by Tian Yuzhong, the two of them went straight to the Linghu area.

There is a mountain in Linghu Village, with a lake surrounding it at the foot of the mountain. This lake is Linghu Lake.

The water in Linghu Lake is fast and the lake surface is very wide. Even on a winter night, it is still flowing without any signs of being frozen.

Xiao Jin used his spiritual power to reach out his claws and put them into the lake to start detecting.

Lu Yao, on the other hand, was using his spiritual power, opening his heavenly eyes, and vigilantly monitoring the movements around him.

After a quarter of an hour, Xiao Jin retracted his wet paw, then stuck out his tongue and licked it.

"Meow~~~Boss, there is no spiritual power fluctuation in the lake, and there is no restriction formation."

Lu Yao nodded, he had never detected any abnormal fluctuations.

The entire Linghu Lake seems to have become a stagnant water.

"Meow~~~ I'll go into the water and take a look."

Xiao Jin said hello, and then jumped into the lake with a splash.

Lu Yao grinned and looked cold.

Another quarter of an hour passed, but there was no movement from Xiao Jin.

Lu Yao was a little anxious.

Another half an hour passed, but there was still no movement.

Lu Yao felt bad.

After running a few steps outside, he looked back at the unfathomable lake.

Thinking of Xiao Lengyue's earnest expectations, he gritted his teeth, gave up the idea of ​​​​escaping alone, turned around and jumped into the lake.

The lake water was biting and cold, and Lu Yao did not dare to continue to use his spiritual power.

If there is a magical beast or a powerful beast master at the bottom of the lake, once he uses his spiritual power, he will be discovered by the opponent soon.

Fortunately, he was a good swimmer in his previous life, otherwise he would be unable to move in this fast lake without using his spiritual power.

Moreover, he has reached the divine level of cultivation. Even if he is not accustomed to fighting skills, his physical quality and strength are extraordinary.

Without much effort, he swam to the bottom of the lake a thousand meters below.

There is indeed something fishy at the bottom of the lake.

The bottom of the lake, which should have been entirely filled with sand, gravel, soil and water plants, was instead built out of thin air into a rather small crystal palace.

The entire Crystal Palace shone brightly, with colorful lights constantly shining inside.

Lu Yao squinted his eyes. If he guessed correctly, it was the crystal veins inside that were glowing.

Xiao Lengyue's guess was indeed correct. There was indeed a group of people who had been eyeing the crystal mineral veins for a long time. This crystal palace was the best proof.

There must be a powerful beast master in this Crystal Palace, and Xiao Jin is afraid that he has been caught.

The two thoughts fought fiercely, and Lu Yao knew that he should turn around and leave immediately.

But when he thought of Xiao Lengyue looking sad and crying, his heart couldn't help but throb in pain.

I sighed, I really owed this little ancestor in my previous life.

Lu Yao carefully squeezed in through the gap in a window of the Crystal Palace.

He was originally only the size of a palm, but the cat could shrink his bones, creating a slightly larger gap, enough for him to enter the Crystal Palace.

The Crystal Palace is very large and has a complex structure, like a big maze.

Lu Yao came in, but he didn't know where to look for Xiao Jin.

The thought of Xiao Jin not knowing whether he was alive or dead gave him a headache.

I finally found such a powerful spiritual beast for Xiao Lengyue. Is it possible that I have to leave it here?

Withdrawing all the tips of his claws and trying to land on the ground with as little flesh as possible, Lu Yao began his journey of exploring the Crystal Palace.

Fortunately, there are no patrol guards in this Crystal Palace, otherwise he would be discovered no matter how careful he is.

After carefully exploring the Crystal Palace, Lu Yao was surprised to find that there was no one in the Crystal Palace, which covered an area of ​​nearly 10,000 meters.

Not to mention the powerful beast master as imagined, there is not even a trace of Xiao Jin.

There is nothing but a vein of spar that is constantly shining at the core.

"Ding! An ordinary crystal palace has been detected. Would the host choose to upgrade to ordinary 1? The content of this upgrade is: defense 1, stealth 1, area 1."

"Ding! An ordinary crystal mineral vein has been detected. Would the host choose to upgrade to ordinary 1? The content of this upgrade is: quality 1, output 1."

Lu Yao was confused, what is going on?

Neither this crystal palace nor the mineral vein belongs to him.

Could it be that the system has determined that these two things belong to him?

No matter what, let’s upgrade first, maybe I can earn a lot of points.

Lu Yao no longer hesitated and directly chose to upgrade the crystal palace and crystal mineral veins.

There are two new icons on the shelves of the exchange store.

After Lu Yao clicked one after another, two small bags of upgrade powder appeared out of thin air.

Lu Yao first sprinkled the Crystal Palace's upgrade powder all over the entire Crystal Palace.

Then sprinkle the upgrade powder of the crystal ore veins into the ore veins.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading to Normal 1 Crystal Palace. The reward points are 10,000."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading the ordinary 1 crystal mineral vein. The reward points are 10,000."

Lu Yao was shocked, so many points were awarded?

He quickly looked at his message:

Name: Lu Yao

Race: Red Flame Tiger (ancient holy beast)

Level: Level 4 Rancher

Ability: Number of cultivated spiritual beasts: 1, god-level teleportation

Points:31000

Spiritual beasts: Common 3 pheasant spirit beasts, common 3 lepoline spirit beasts, common lepoline spirit beasts, common canine spirit beasts

Spiritual Weapon: Normal 1 Crystal Palace

Resources: Ordinary 1 crystal ore vein

This is?

Lu Yao was shocked. The crystal palace and crystal mineral veins were indeed determined by the system to be his property.

But what puzzled him was why the Crystal Palace was a spiritual weapon?

"Ding! Ordinary 1 crystal palace has been detected. Does the host choose to upgrade to an ordinary crystal space? The upgrade content: portable attributes 1, space aura concentration 1, self-rotating formation 1, and can accommodate 1 type of spiritual beasts."

A portable crystal palace?

No wonder it can be called a spiritual weapon.

Wouldn't it be a big killer to raise some spiritual beasts inside?

Awesome!

Lu Yao's claws trembled, and with great excitement, he spent 20,000 points and chose to upgrade.

There is a new icon on the shelf of the exchange shop again. After clicking it, a burst of golden light flashes.

Lu Yao held the upgrade powder and sprinkled the powder evenly in every corner of the Crystal Palace with awe and excitement.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading the ordinary crystal space. The reward points are 50,000."

Lu Yao grinned and laughed, almost knocked unconscious by the falling big pie.

The points have reached the 60,000 mark, and I have obtained space and crystal mineral veins. This vote is not a loss!

His mind moved and he said silently in his heart: Crystal space, close it!

The next moment, the Crystal Palace and the spar veins all disappeared, and Lu Yao appeared at the bottom of Linghu Lake.

Only this time, there is no more beautiful Crystal Palace at the bottom of Linghu Lake.

He suppressed his surprise and said silently again: Crystal space, now!

The scene in front of him changed, and he appeared inside the Crystal Palace again.

Lu Yao tried a few more times, and then solemnly closed the crystal space.

This is a great gift from the system's father after he traveled through time.

He was in a great mood and finally felt that he had some hope for the future.

From then on, as a time traveler, he finally had some trump cards.

After he was overjoyed, he thought about Xiao Jin again.

I don’t know what happened to Xiao Jin, or where he was taken away.

With support, he was no longer as careful as before, using his spiritual power, he quickly searched the lake.

As soon as he activated his spiritual power, violent waves suddenly surged in the lake.

A huge suction force came from all directions, Lu Yao struggled desperately, and was finally sucked into a large whirlpool.

After a round of spinning, Lu Yao fell directly from a high altitude into an endless stretch of smelly water.

"vomit!"

Lu Yao covered his nose, but still couldn't hold it back, turned around and vomited wildly.

After vomiting profusely, Lu Yao opened his eyes with some exhaustion.

I saw many things floating in this extremely smelly water.

Looking carefully, Lu Yao was startled.

I saw that there were many skulls and skeletons inside.

Lu Yao endured the discomfort and followed the current, trying to swim to the shore.

The red patch on the shore does not seem to be a hard material. It looks like a completely enclosed place.

Lu Yao used all his spiritual power and swam towards the shore. After an unknown amount of time, he finally climbed onto the shore at a raised place.

He sat on the bulge, still feeling frightened.

Not only does the smelly water below have an extremely unpleasant smell, but it also emits heat waves with a strong sour smell from time to time.

If he hadn't been using his spiritual power to resist, he would have become a plate of boiled cat slices by now.

This shore is also strange, soft, warm, and exuding heat.

After a while, all the wet fur on his body was dried.

Lu Yao felt uncomfortable all over, so he had to use his spiritual power to walk around the Great Zhoutian.

Xiao Lengyue once taught him how to walk the Great Zhoutian.

It is nothing more than gathering the spiritual power in the body in one place, and then pushing this spiritual power to travel through the four meridians, five meridians, and major acupuncture points in the body.

After walking for a long time, he felt much better and regained most of his strength.

He used his spiritual power again and opened his eyes.

Celestial clairvoyance means forcing part of the spiritual power to the large acupuncture points around the eyes to gain clairvoyance for a certain period of time.

Lu Yao used his celestial vision to look around, and suddenly his eyelids twitched.

He saw a palm-sized, furry thing floating in the smelly water just now.

Could this thing be Xiaojin?

Lu Yao gritted his teeth, closed his breath and jumped into the smelly water again.

He didn't know how long it took him to drag the dying Xiao Jin out of the water and threw him on another bulge on the shore.

What he saw just now was indeed Xiao Jin.

It's just that Xiao Jin's condition is very bad. Now he has more air coming out and less air coming in.

After Lu Yao walked through the Great Zhoutian again, he crawled over and began to heal its wounds.

Just like how he saved Xiao Lengyue last time, he concentrated his spiritual power on his fingertips and continuously poured his spiritual power into the big hole on Xiao Jin's head.

After about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Jin made a sound, and Lu Yao quickly retracted his claws.

"Meow~~~Boss, am I dead? Why are you here? Am I hallucinating?"

Xiao Jin barely opened his eyes and spoke weakly.

"Are you hallucinating, you big-headed ghost? Hurry up and walk to Zhoutian. The two of us have to find a way to get out of here quickly."

Seeing that it was fine, Lu Yao had no intention of asking about his previous situation.

Thirty-six strategies are the best.

It is not advisable to stay here for a long time.

Xiao Jin got up according to the words and began to walk around the world obediently.

Lu Yao also took the time to walk the Great Zhoutian again.

After the two of them were almost rested, they finally had the strength to explore this strange place.
