The Record of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 18 Eavesdropping, Tracking

"Fellow Daoist Yu, is your map true? We have been here with you for more than half a month!"

An impatient voice sounded, attracting Xu Yuxiu's attention.

"The map is not wrong, it's just that the time has not come."

At this time, a middle-aged monk in a monk's robe said: "According to my calculations, we can determine the specific location of the ancient ruins at sunrise tomorrow. Let's rest for a night and recuperate today."

"Okay, I'll trust you again."

Immediately, they saw the monk in Taoist robes taking out the array plate and setting up a protective array around them, and the group began to rest.

They never noticed that there was a cave near them.

It is also because the location of this cave is hidden enough, the entrance of the cave is only half the height of a person, and it is covered by weeds.

If Xu Yuxiu hadn't been so small, it would have been difficult to find the cave.

Unfortunately, the magic circle and the location of the cave entrance were covered.

As long as Xu Yuxiu dares to approach the entrance of the cave, those monks will find her immediately.

This made Xu Yuxiu a little anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

Now she doesn't even dare to look out for her consciousness.

After the array is set up, as long as there is a slight abnormality in the array, the array board in the hands of the arrayer can immediately detect it.

"Ancient ruins."

Xu Yuxiu thought about what they said, do these monks have a map of the location of the ancient ruins in their hands?

This got her a little interested.

She remembered Elder Zhao once said that only ancient methods could solve the hidden dangers in her spiritual roots.

The only way to obtain ancient methods now is through ancient ruins.

A sleepless night, and the next day was still dark.

The group of monks had already woken up, they withdrew the magic circle, and waited for the sunrise.

When the sun just emerged from the horizon, the monk named Yu took out a compass and began to calculate.

After about half an hour, he looked solemn and pointed in a direction, "It's in the southeast!"

Immediately, the group of them set off to the southeast.

When they were farther away, Xu Yuxiu carefully removed the rocks at the entrance and exited the cave.

"Southeast orientation."

She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and decided to follow.

Following all the way, Xu Yuxiu didn't dare to get too close for fear of being discovered by them.

The group of monks stopped at the entrance of a valley until they walked out of the area where Fenglang Ridge was located and went around for seven or eight miles.

After Xu Yuxiu saw them stop from a distance, he stopped walking, climbed up a taller tree, hid in the tree and looked at the group of monks.

I saw the group of monks stopping at the entrance of the valley, with no intention of entering.

Xu Yuxiu didn't know what they were doing, and couldn't hear their voices.

Looking past the group of monks towards the entrance of the valley, one can see the thick fog entangled in the entrance of the valley, making it impossible to see the situation inside the valley clearly.

At this time, the Taoist monk surnamed Yu was seen holding a compass and circling the entrance of the valley. Then he stopped at a place and began to make arrangements.

After a while, he uttered a formula, and the fog at the entrance of the valley suddenly surged, opening a hole for only one person to pass through.

"It's done!"

Everyone's faces were filled with joy.

Immediately, they entered one after another through the opening opened by the mist, and soon the mist surged and covered the opening again.

Seeing this, Xu Yuxiu hesitated for a moment and decided to go over and take a look.

Arriving at the spot where the group of monks were standing, I took a few glances at the fog at the entrance to the valley in front of me, but didn't see anything.

She picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at the mist.

Immediately, she saw that after the stone touched the mist at the entrance of the valley, it was instantly melted by the mist, leaving no residue behind.

Seeing this, a chill rose in her heart, and she unconsciously retreated further away from the mist.

"It seems there is no way to get in."

Xu Yuxiu muttered a little disappointed, but she still didn't give up, so she hid near the entrance of the valley.

This wait, that is, several days have passed.

However, there was still no change at the entrance of the valley, and the group of monks never came out again.

Seeing that the time to return to the sect is getting closer, there are only two days left.

Xu Yuxiu doesn't plan to spend any more time here.

Just when she was about to leave.

The fog at the entrance of the valley suddenly surged, and then a group of people rushed out of it.

It fell to the ground outside the valley, and Gululu rolled several times before stopping.

Xu Yuxiu's eyes immediately fell on that person, and she recognized him immediately, it was the Taoist robed monk surnamed Yu.

I saw that he looked very miserable at this time, his Taoist robe was torn and covered with blood, and he fell there motionless.

Xu Yuxiu didn't know whether he was dead or alive, so she didn't dare to step forward to investigate.

But after seeing his miserable appearance, I still carefully used my consciousness to investigate.

"died!"

After a moment, Xu Yuxiu withdrew his consciousness and could roughly conclude that he had lost his breath.

So, she boldly stepped forward to check.

Only when she got closer did she see clearly the miserable appearance of the monk in robes.

Half of his body seemed to have been eaten by something, and he had completely lost his human appearance.

Seeing this, Xu Yuxiu's heart felt cold, and she had the urge to vomit, but she forcibly stopped it.

And then she saw the monk in robes, who seemed to be holding something tightly in his right hand that looked like it had been chewed.

Driven by curiosity, she suppressed the chill in her heart, and was about to break off the priest's right hand to take a look.

Just when she was about to do this, the monk in Taoist robes suddenly opened his eyes like a flash of light.

"Who are you!" His voice was hoarse, like a broken bellows, and coupled with his terrifying face, it sounded very scary.

Xu Yuxiu did not answer, but cautiously distanced herself from him. The spiritual power in her body had been secretly mobilized, and there was a faint flash of fire in her hands.

Perhaps the Taoist monk saw the Taixuan disciple's costume on Xu Yuxiu's body, or maybe he realized that his life was not long, with only half of his face remaining, a wry smile appeared.

"It's really a trick of good fortune. I think I have practiced for dozens of years when I became enlightened, but now I have fallen into this field."

He first laughed at himself, then turned his attention to Xu Yuxiu: "Fellow Taoist, I am already dead, and I am unable to resist. Before I die, I can give you a great opportunity, but you have to do one thing for me."

Hearing Yu Chengdao's words, Xu Yuxiu did not agree immediately, nor did he choose to take action, "I can get everything on you when you die."

"If I don't tell you, even if you get it, you will most likely become like me."

Hearing this, Xu Yuxiu hesitated.

"Actually, what I want you to do, with your status as a Taixuan disciple, there is no difficulty in doing it."

Maybe it's about to die, and Yu Chengdao is a little anxious to speak.

"Tell me first what you want me to do?"

When Yu Chengdao saw Xu Yuxiu loosen his mouth, he didn't say any more nonsense: "I want you to go to the secular Luofeng Town and find Yu Mansion. If the descendants of Yu Mansion have spiritual roots, you have to lead one of them to the fairy road. If not, you will keep Yu Mansion." The mansion has been rich for a hundred years."

"Okay, I promise you!"

Xu Yuxiu nodded, and agreed to this matter, which is indeed not difficult for her.

Seeing that Xu Yuxiu agreed to this matter, Yu Chengdao also showed relief on his face, and gave Xu Yuxiu the thing he was holding tightly in his hand.

"This is the key to a treasure house in this ancient ruins. This ancient ruins is very dangerous and there are countless ghosts. You'd better prepare some means to deal with the ghosts before entering."

Yu Chengdao then told some of the things he saw in the ruins, which also showed that this ancient ruins had been activated by them, and they believed that it would not be long before it was completely reborn.

After saying this, he completely lost his life.

After Xu Yuxiu took his storage bag and the key to the treasure house of the ruins into his bag, he burned his body with a fire technique.

Then she left here.

Just as Xu Yuxiu walked back to the area of ​​Fenglangling, he heard a loud noise.

When she turned her head, she saw a beam of light rising into the sky.

She knew that it was the vision of the ancient ruins about to be born.

At the same time, she also saw one after another escaping light, galloping towards the strange image from different directions.

Looking away, Xu Yuxiu knew that the ancient ruins were not something she could explore now.

She doesn't stay any longer.
