Chapter 433: Ancient Martial Cave-Dwelling
The night shrouded the entire Crouching Dragon Mountain Range like a fierce beast that blotted out the sky.
The last ray of light on the horizon disappeared completely.
The entire camp was plunged into darkness.
The bonfire had been lit, and the martial artists did their own duty.
Ling Xiao had also already returned from outside.
He had no other choices. He was unable to find that ancient martial artist’s cave-dwelling, presumably, Fairy Linglong didn’t lie. That cave-dwelling indeed appeared just at night.
Not far away, the originally level ground unexpectedly rose slowly, and a several meters tall mountain appeared.
On this mountain, there was a very obvious cave-dwelling located halfway up the mountain.
That place indeed also emitted an aura of ancient martial artists. Ling Xiao could confirm that that was indeed the cave-dwelling of an ancient martial artist, moreover, it was very likely that there were treasures inside.
“Roar~~”
The sounds of wolves’ howl could be heard in the distance, which made people’s hearts tremble.
“Let’s go, Noble Son Ling, the cave-dwelling has already appeared.”
Fairy Linglong, the stern-faced martial artist, and two other Peak Rank Four Transcendent Realm martial artists came together.
“That place is very narrow, it’s hard to get in if there are too many people. So, just the five of us will go there.”
“I’m only responsible for opening the formation. As for other matters, Fairy can arrange them.”
Ling Xiao said indifferently.
“Alright then, let’s go.”
Fairy Linglong and the stern-faced martial artist walked in the front. Ling Xiao was placed in the middle, and the other two Peak Rank Four Transcendent Realm martial artists followed at the back.
Both of them were carrying a bow on their backs. It was obvious that these two were good at martial skills related to bows and arrows. It was even possible that their martial souls were related to bows and arrows.
Ling Xiao couldn’t help sneering in his heart. This was to prevent him from running away.
But why would he run away?
There was no need for him to run away at all. If these people wanted to deal with him, then he would kill them all.
Looking for treasures had always been Ling Xiao’s most favorite thing to do.
He was a youth with a special love for adventure and treasures.
The group of five came to the foot of the mountain.
“We have only half an hour, we must be careful. Noble Son Ling, it’s your turn now!”
Fairy Linglong looked at Ling Xiao and said.
The mountain was very tall. However, the cave-dwelling was just more than ten meters away from the ground. There was an obvious stone platform near the cave-dwelling, where people could stand.
It could be estimated that the ancient martial artist found this place beautiful, so he made a cave-dwelling here to cultivate.
Ling Xiao didn’t say anything. He extended his finger and shot a qi sword, which actually hit the hard stone, then turned into something soft like a rope, and tied up the stone.
Afterward, he slowly shortened the qi sword and continuously climbed along the cliff.
He had no other choice. With a heavy Refine Stone Array on his body, he basically couldn’t fly. He could only use this stupid method.
“Fairy, this kid’s movement technique is not good. It will be very easy to deal with him.”
The stern-faced martial artist watched Ling Xiao, then sent a voice transmission to Fairy Linglong.
“Mmm, it’s still the same. We will make a move after we get the things. It won’t be good if there are formations inside the cave-dwelling.”
Fairy Linglong’s thoughts were deep. She wanted to kill Ling Xiao, but only after she finished using Ling Xiao, she would kill him.
Ling Xiao climbed to the entrance of the cave-dwelling and retracted his qi sword.
At this moment, he couldn’t help feeling happy. Honestly, he had learned this <Nine Veins Qi Sword> at a perfect time. Without it, he would have had to think of a way to climb so high.
The formation of the cave-dwelling was not complicated, moreover, since a long time had already passed, it was actually very weak.
Those people who were good at formations could easily crack this formation, but those people who had no knowledge of formation would be helpless.
Ling Xiao took out some tools and fiddled around with the formation a few times, then the formation suddenly flashed with a dazzling light.
He had not chosen to break it but chose to control it.
Repairing the almost broken formation would be useful if something happened later.
“Who do you think, Noble Son Ling, can you break it?”
Not long after, Fairy Linglong and others jumped up.
Their movement techniques were relatively good. They didn’t need things like a rope.
“It’s a bit difficult, but I can try.”
In fact, Ling Xiao had already cracked the formation, moreover, made it his own. He said this because he didn’t want to make these people suspicious.
Standing in front of the cave-dwelling for a long time, Ling Xiao intentionally squeezed out a few drops of sweat on his forehead, then gasped for breath and said: “Ladies and gentlemen, the formation is broken, please enter.”
“You enter first!”
The stern-faced martial artist suddenly pulled out his sword, pointed at Ling Xiao’s back, and said coldly.
“Fairy, this is not what you said before. Didn’t you say that I just need to break the formation?”
Ling Xiao pretended to be angry and scared and said.
“Don’t be afraid. We are doing this so that we all can get the treasures. If there are still more formations inside, then Noble Son Ling needs to work hard.”
Fairy Linglong was very proud when she saw Ling Xiao’s frightened look.
This kid who had refused to give her a face should be dealt with like this.
“But what if you don’t keep the promise and kill me?”
Ling Xiao intentionally shrunk his body, looking very scared.
“If you don’t want to die, then quickly do as I say. Otherwise, I’ll kill you now!” The stern-faced martial artist shouted: “Quickly enter!”
“Fairy! I don’t want anything. After I find the treasure, I just hope that you will spare my life.”
Ling Xiao hastily said.
“Hehe, why would I kill you? Don’t worry, Leng Mian just has a bad temper, you better listen to him.”
Fairy Linglong said with a smile full of disdain.
Ling Xiao had already sentenced these people to death in his heart.
Since you all want to die, wait until this Noble Son’s cultivation is higher, this Noble Son will sort you all one by one!
With the current strength of Ling Xiao, he wouldn’t be able to kill these four people, but he could easily run away.
Then, he would go to settle accounts with these people in Sand Family Fortress in less than one month.
One month's time was enough for him to reach Rank Four Transcendent Realm from Mid Rank Three Transcendent Realm.
At that time, even without entering the Half-Dragon Form, as long as he removed the Refine Array Stone, he would be able to kill these people without any problem.
Right now, his priority should be grabbing the things in the cave-dwelling first, making these people return empty-handed!
Thinking of this, he raised his leg and walked in.
At that moment, he suddenly noticed a light dot flying out of the cave.
Only he, who had been strengthened by the Landscape Martial Soul, had such good eyesight, and he was able to capture the subtle afterimages.
In the next moment, Ling Xiao slightly tilted his head, easily avoiding the light dot.
When the light dot flew past his cheek, he noticed that it was actually a ‘Ghost Fire Bug’.
The Ghost Fire Bug looked exactly like a firefly, but it was a very ferocious fierce beast, and it was generally a rank three fierce beast.
In the middle of the night, it would emit unusual light, but one must not stare at that light.
Because this light released a kind of special soul power, making people fall into hallucination.
The reason why Ling Xiao was not afraid was mainly because his soul power was strong enough to completely resist this hallucination.
