The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

Chapter 385: The Deadly Land



Chapter 385: The Deadly Land

Li Changxiao came to the outside of the house, waved his hand, and took down the door plaque.

In the world of cultivation, monks attach great importance to mansions. A good mansion can add luck to the owner and attract wind and water.

The facade is not only a symbol of the monks’ status and identity.

This is one of the reasons why, even if monks do not need to sleep, they will still strive for a good mansion.

To settle down is to take root.

In a mansion, there are two most critical places.

There is a plaque directly above the gate.

And the threshold on the ground.

Although Li Changxiao has no fixed place to live, which is far from a safe home, he still knows these rules.

Even in the mortal world today, similar sayings are circulating.

He took down the plaque, on which were engraved three large characters: "Ci Xiang Ju".

The plaque was made of a special material, it was crafted from the finest purple wood with golden patterns. This alone made Li Changxiao realize the extraordinary nature of this mansion.

There are only two places in the whole world of Fuyao where the purple wood with golden patterns can be found.

A forest in the East Pole of Fu Domain among the four southern domains.

Every day when the sun rises, the first ray of sunlight shines on this Dongji forest.

Therefore, the trees there absorb purple air day and night, and purple air golden-patterned wood came into being.

Among approximately one hundred thousand trees, one tree can grow into a purple-colored gold-veined tree, and the denser the golden patterns, the more valuable the tree.

Li Changxiao conservatively estimated that with just this plaque, he could buy the entire Panlong Sect.

So terrifying.

Of course, this is just a purely value-based discussion. A sect has many meanings for its existence, including humanities, feelings, heritage, spirit... covering all aspects. This money cannot buy it.

The other place is the polar region of the northern four regions.

There used to be a Plum Blossom Peak there, and inside the peak there was a secret realm, and inside the secret realm there was also a forest of golden-veined trees.

It is different from the purple gold-veined wood, but it is also gold-veined wood and has the same value.

The Plum Blossom Peak has long since disappeared, so now only one patch of land remains with this type of wood.

Li Changxiao took it in his hand and looked at the golden patterns flowing on it, which showed no sign of corruption.

He spent some time observing the fortune and misfortune of the plaque and realized that the plaque did have the meaning of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and was not meant to deceive people.

Also because of its special effects, it has the effect of attracting purple energy.

Hanging in front of the gate, purple air continuously flows into the mansion.

In addition, there are formation patterns on it, which is where the formation of this house is condensed.

In this case, this item is indeed valuable, but what he focused on was the line of small words in the lower left corner of the plaque.

The words "Chao Mei" are engraved on it, and her title "Mubao Fairy" is behind it.

Seeing this, we can be sure that this incense house really belongs to Chao Mei.

Or strictly speaking, it was rented by Chao Mei.

He put down the plaque, leaned over, and knocked on the threshold on the ground.

The sound was crisp, with a faint sound of golden threads colliding.

Li Changxiao drew out his sword, cut off the threshold, and dug it out of the ground.

His eyes narrowed little by little.

Although the threshold was normal, there was something unusual underneath the ground, a line of burn marks.

This kind of high-end house has "underground fire veins" underneath the ground, which makes it convenient for monks to make alchemy and forge weapons.

When Li Changxiao was inspecting the house just now, he also noticed the location where the alchemy furnace was placed.

Right below the stove was the ground fire vein. The ground was still filled with the aroma of herbs, and there was a hint of warmth on the ground.

However, after Li Changxiao removed the threshold, he saw a line of burn marks, which were obviously caused by the fire from the underground fire veins overflowing and burning the land.

If the threshold wasn't made of special material, it would have already been ignited and started a raging fire.

"Are you demolishing the house?"

At this time, Zhang Mo, Zhao Qiu and others, who had finished washing up, also came back.

After the two girls finished washing, Wang Huang also went to wash himself, so he was delayed for some time.

When the three of them came back, they saw that Li Changxiao had taken down the other person's plaque and cut off the threshold.

"Master Li, you are so wicked, aren't you? If that person's spirit is in heaven, he will not let you go after seeing you destroying someone else's house like this." Zhao Qiu couldn't help but complain when he saw this scene.

At some point, Li Changxiao was given the nickname "Li Daxian".

Take down people's plaques and cut down people's door thresholds.

Even if they are enemies, they dare not do such a thing.

After all, people like to save face. If you do this, even if they don't want to fight you, they will have to fight for the sake of face and to avoid being stabbed in the back.

"Go away, go play somewhere else." Zhang Mo gave up helplessly. It was really hard to describe her girl's mouth sometimes.

"Did you find anything?" she asked as she came closer. She had just come out of the shower and had a fresh fragrance on her body.

Li Changxiao was digging something on the ground with his Qingping sword, and he said, "One thing is that this house belongs to Chao Mei, and this person is related to the Fire Land Flower, so I'll take a look around."

"I discovered that she had led the earth fire vein used for alchemy outside the house. It seemed to be connected to the spiritual field outside the house."

"By the way, you seemed to be searching the house this morning as well. Did you find anything unusual?"

Li Changxiao stopped what he was doing and asked slowly.

Zhang Mo blushed, but after thinking carefully, there were indeed some.

"The owner of this house is known as the Mu Yuan Fairy. She has a rare Mu Yuan biological body. She looks very powerful, has many suitors, and has a fiery and unrestrained personality." Zhang Mo said in a clear and concise manner.

I found these when I was looking for my underwear in the morning.

"Muyuan Biogenic Body?" Li Changxiao recalled the relevant information in his mind.

The physique in ancient times is somewhat different from that in its heyday, but you can roughly know its function from the name.

It should be some kind of top-level physique with wood attribute.

It should be effective to use it to catalyze magical herbs.

Zhang Mo continued, "This girl seems to have close contacts with several elders at the same time, but according to the system of the Binary Sect, this should be normal."

"That's all I know. Although this is her residence, she is a monk after all. Most of her valuables are probably carried with her."

The trip to the ruins was quite long, and Zhang Mo's understanding of the monks was actually quite profound.

While the two were talking.

Li Changxiao had dug dozens of meters along the direction of the underground fire vein. The underground fire vein that was drawn out led to the spiritual field.

The underground fire vein leading to the outside was also dug out bit by bit.

Finally, it was discovered that it led to the spiritual field.

"Using earth fire to nourish the spiritual field?"

"I've never heard of this method of cultivating spiritual fields."

Li Changxiao frowned.

Lingtian is a place for cultivating spiritual plants, most of which are yin and should be kept away from heat and dryness.

Unless you want to cultivate a certain kind of spiritual plant that can only survive under specific conditions.

However, there is no logic in directly starting a fire under the ground. This would be tantamount to burning down the house.

Thinking of this, Li Changxiao, with doubt in his mind, pinched the earth seal with his hands and slowly turned over the acre-sized spiritual field.

Followed by.

The once spiritual fields have turned into worthless scorched earth.

As the flip.

A rotten smell gradually spread out.

There are actually thousands of skeletons buried under this spiritual field, but they have been broken and weathered.

Moreover, their cultivation levels were all quite high. According to the broken bones, their cultivation levels were approximately at the Spirit Transformation Stage.

In ancient times, there were not as many spiritual masters as there are now, and their value was also higher than in their heyday.

This was undoubtedly a horrifying scene. Zhao Qiu and Wang Huang's stomachs churned and they quickly ran out to take shelter.

Leave this disaster area.

Zhao Qiu had a bitter look on his face. Why did strange things happen wherever he went?

Normally, the bones of the Spirit Transformation Stage are not so easy to decay. Those bones already have the ability to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and have considerable value.

There are even remnants of souls left in the bones, which may lead to resurrection in the future.

It can be refined into magic weapons, or used to make elixirs. It even has a clear price tag on the market.

It has only been nearly a thousand years since the spiritual energy was exhausted. Even if the Divine Bone was damaged, it would not shatter into debris.

This only suggests two possibilities.

These bones were broken into pieces and then buried here.

Another possibility is that some kind of manipulation was done to these skeletons, leading to this situation.

Are the spiritual fields being nourished with the corpses of powerful gods?

Li Changxiao didn't think so.

The earth fire veins lead to the spiritual field, and the scorching heat will kill most of the nutrients in the spiritual field.

And using corpses to nourish spiritual fields is completely contradictory.

suddenly.

A flash of lightning flashed through Li Changxiao's mind, "Maybe..."

Zhang Mo also happened to speak.

"She is trying to grow living flowers out of dead land."
