Before the retreat in Guxuan, the autumn wind suddenly started blowing and the fallen leaves were fluttering. After leaving the retreat, the summer air was thick and the sun was scorching.

The colorful parrot stood on the shoulder of Xiaoyao Sanren, staring at the yellow light mask on the hilltop in the distance: "Fellow Daoist Huang is changing the cave formation, and you have to go out for a long time?"

Gu Xuan never dared to underestimate the intelligence of colorful parrots: "I plan to sneak into the Lingzong mine veins and practice in the spiritual mines."

Xiaoyao Sanren's reaction was just as Wang Mang expected. He was slightly stunned at first, and then looked up to the sky and smiled: "A monk should be brave and diligent. If you are timid, you can't achieve the great road. Huang Daoyou is very courageous and has the demeanor of a master."

Gu Xuan asked: "Does Master Xiaoyao know about the situation of opening the Lingzong mineral vein?"

"I know a thing or two." Master Xiaoyao's expression returned to normal, "This mine is close to being exhausted, and the Kailing Sect only mines it every thirty years."

Wang Mang said: "Such a spiritual mine is suitable for your hidden cultivation."

Gu Xuan asked: "What is the cultivation level of the monk guarding the spiritual mine?"

"I'm not sure." Xiaoyao Sanren thought for a moment, "Kailing Sect is the strongest among the three major forces in Yinchuan Island. The cultivation level of the monks who come to guard the Ling Mine must be at the late stage of the Gangli Realm at most."

Colorful Parrot interjected: "About half a year ago, Taoist Daoist Da Qin came to visit the ropeway platform. He saw that the magic circle was replaced and the spiritual energy of the sky was reduced by most. I expected that Taoist Friend Huang was practicing, so he didn't bother him."

Gu Xuan's expression moved slightly, and he quickly looked at the colorful parrot: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Sakura, for telling me. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qin is in the cave?"

The colorful parrot said crisply: "Sakura patrolled the island last month and did not see fellow Daoist Qin."

Xiaoyaosanren said: "I will go to Jinsha City to participate in a high-end auction. It may take as long as a year or as little as half a year before I return to the island."

Gu Xuan understood what Xiaoyao Sanren meant. If his hidden cultivator was exposed, he could ask him for help. He immediately handed over his hand and thanked him: "Thank you, Master."

…

Gu Xuan drove the jade bone boat and flew slowly towards Sanying Cave (the name of the Qin brothers' cave) without turning invisible.

If it hadn't been mentioned by Colorful Parrot, Gu Xuan wouldn't have wanted to visit, so as not to cause trouble and delay his cultivation.

After hearing Gu Xuan's intention to form a team with the Qin brothers, Wang Mang said: "There is no advantage in the Gangli realm. It is better to form a team to hunt for treasures. The Qin brothers are worth making friends with."

Gu Xuan asked: "According to the senior opinion, is Su Ci's promise to Hongyan Island related to the secret realm of Yinxu?"

"Most likely." Wang Mang recalled the scene that day, "I'm just a little confused. It's not difficult for casual cultivators to learn about the secret realm of Yin Ruins, but Su Ci and others seem to know the year and month of the appearance of the Nether Mirror."

The jade bone boat quickly flew to the Sanying Cave and hovered in the air. The entrance of the cave was still surrounded by the Xutu Three Defense Formations.

When Gu Xuan searched his mind, he found that the water aura in the void was extremely rare, and other auras seemed restless.

Wang Mang's telepathy stopped immediately after he detected it, and he said secretly: "Qin Se is probably practicing Qi, and Qin Gu is protecting him."

Gu Xuan withdrew his telekinesis, took out a knocking talisman, pinched it with his fingers, and the knocking talisman emitted a red beam of light that hit the yellow light curtain at the entrance of the cave.

For a moment, a gap opened in the yellow light curtain, and Qin Gu's voice came out: "It turns out that Friends Huang Dao is here, please come in quickly."

"I'm out of customs today and took the liberty to come to visit. Sorry to bother you."

Gu Xuanyun took out the golden wings, put away the knocking talisman and the jade bone boat, flapped his wings, and slowly flew into the cave.

"Fellow Daoist Huang is out."

Qin Gu smiled slightly, made a finger gesture, and submerged it into the array disk suspended in front of him, and the gap in the light curtain gradually closed.

"Abandon

My brother is practicing cultivation, and Daoist Huang came to my cultivation room to have a talk."

The practice room opened, and after the two of them walked in, Qin Gu activated the magic circle, and a yellow light curtain flashed out from the entrance of the cave.

There were no tables and chairs in the cave. There was a futon on the ground, and Qin Gu took out another futon for Gu Xuan to sit cross-legged.

Gu Xuan wanted to go to Yinchuan Island as soon as possible and asked directly: "According to Fellow Daoist Xiaoying, Fellow Daoist Qin has been to Zaixiadong Mansion. Is there anything wrong?"

Qin Gu chuckled: "I am not practicing in the cave. I am only protecting my younger brother. I went to the ropeway platform that day simply because I wanted to reminisce with Daoist Huang. Is Daoist Xiaoying on patrol?"

Gu Xuandao: "Fellow Daoist Xiaoying and Master Xiaoyao were out, and I happened to meet them. Let's exchange a few words."

Qin Gu asked: "I see Huang Daoyou driving the jade bone boat, do you want to go out too?"

"Qin Dao has a friendly eye." Gu Xuan chuckled, "I am planning to go to Linchuan City to buy elixirs."

Qin Gu thought for a while: "Although it has been more than a year since Sanyoumen Prison Island was robbed, I still dare not be careless, so I went with Huang Daoyou to Yinchuan Island to find out the news."

Gu Xuan changed his mind and did not refuse. The two of them quickly set off.

…

Yinchuan Island is not far from the archipelago islands, and the Jade Bone Boat only flew for five days before arriving at the island.

After going tens of miles deep into this island, you can't feel the sea breeze at all. As far as you can see, the landforms and secular houses are similar to those of Xi Kingdom.

Gu Xuan sincerely sighed: "I feel like I have returned to the realm of common people."

Qin Gu smiled knowingly: "I feel the same way when I come here for the first time. It is precisely for this reason that many monks in the Common Life Realm choose to open caves on the island."

Gu Xuan asked: "How much does fellow Taoist Qin know about this island?"

Qin Gu said: "The three major forces on the island are standing together, and they are evenly divided into seventy-two mortal cities. In addition to Linchuan City, Kailing Sect and Iron Demon Sect each opened a practice city, and many mortal cities also have casual cultivators.

The circulation market."

Gu Xuandao: "This island is indeed a good place for monks in the Common Life Realm. I think there are quite a lot of casual cultivators on the island."

"At least a thousand." Qin Gu nodded, "There is no rental fee for the four mana realm casual cultivators, and the cost of other casual cultivators is not high. When the island is attacked, the casual cultivators must defend the enemy together, otherwise they will be attacked by the three major forces.

The execution."

…

A few days later, the invisible jade bone boat stopped over a hillside somewhere.

This place is sparsely populated, and the dense forest on the top of the slope is filled with smoke.

Qin Gu did not detect his telepathy, but sent a message to Gu Xuan: "This is the Bright Side Cave below. The smoke is only a third-level maze, which can block the detection of spiritual consciousness and make people get lost. Within a radius of thirty miles, there are no

There is no other cave."

"Opening a cave here can hide people's ears and eyes, and Qin Dao's friendly plans."

Gu Xuan detected the power of secret thoughts, and found that the surrounding heavenly spiritual energy was far inferior to that of the reef islands, and could barely be used for cultivation in the Gangli realm.

Wang Mang suddenly said: "There is a cuckoo bird watching in the tree crown a hundred feet away to the east."

Gu Xuan's current mental power could only see more than thirty feet, so he looked into the distance and saw another hillside a hundred feet away, also with a forest.

When Qin Gu saw this, he couldn't help but sent a message to ask: "What did Fellow Daoist Huang discover?"

"It's not clear yet."

Gu Xuan drove the jade bone boat and flew dozens of feet toward the east. He then used his dark mind power and finally saw the cuckoo bird.

"It turns out that it is a cuckoo bird that is monitoring Taoist Fellow Qin's cave. It seems that Sanyoumen is not giving up yet."

"A good spy on Cuckoo Bird?" Qin Gu's eyes flashed, "I've only heard of his name, but I haven't seen him yet."

The jade bone boat quickly flew to the east hillside and stopped on the side of a big tree.

Gu Xuan pointed at the big tree and slowly transmitted the message: "The little gray bird in the nest on the tree is the cuckoo."

"This bird certainly deserves its name, and its appearance is very similar to a sparrow."

Qin Gu clicked his tongue in admiration, then looked at Gu Xuan with a meaningful look in his eyes.

"This place is at least a hundred feet away from the Lower Cave Mansion. It is even more remarkable that Fellow Daoist Huang could actually discover this bird."

Gu Xuan wrote lightly: "It's a discovery, not a discovery. If I didn't have some means, how would I dare to venture into Nanyang alone?"

Qin Gu did not inquire further and returned to the subject: "I have no other enemies. Just as Huang Daoyou said, the cuckoo bird must have been left by Sanyoumen. We cannot take it lightly."

Gu Xuandao: "This is very true. I am going to Linchuan City. Will fellow Taoist Qin go with me?"

Qin Gu asked: "After buying the elixirs, Huang Daoyou, will you go back immediately?"

Gu Xuan took the opportunity and said: "I have been in seclusion for more than a year. I wanted to travel for a while when I went out."

Qin Gu said seriously: "Master Xiaoyao is out, and my younger brother is practicing alone in the cave. I am not worried, so I will return to the islands."

…

Kailing Sect is located in Jingshan Mountain on Yinchuan Island, but the Lingshi mine is located in Earth Mountain a hundred miles away from Jingshan Mountain.

The mountain is shaped like an earthworm, and the mountain is winding. The surface of the mountain is covered with low shrubs and weeds, and there are no tall trees.

The entrance to Ling Mine is in a rather secret valley in Earth Mountain, which Kai Ling Sect specifically named Yu Ling Valley.

That morning, with the scorching sun high in the sky, an invisible white cloud flew quietly and stopped over Yuling Valley.

Gu Xuan was wearing a gray Taoist robe and a Zhenru mask, sitting cross-legged on the clouds, looking down at Yuling Valley.

But the valley was filled with white mist, making it impossible to see clearly. Even if I tried to use my dark thoughts, I couldn't penetrate the clouds and mist either.

Gu Xuan withdrew his telekinesis: "Senior, according to the information we received, it may be easier than imagined to sneak into the spiritual mine to practice this time."

Gu Xuan spent a whole month investigating Linchuan City and Kailingzongfang City and collected a lot of information on spiritual veins.

As Xiaoyao Sanren said, the Kailingzong Ling Mine is mined once every thirty years, and is usually blocked by a magic circle. More than twenty years have passed since the last time it was mined.

There are four Kailing Sect monks guarding the spirit mine, one is at the late stage of the Gangli realm and three are at the early stage of the Gangli realm.

Wang Mang said: "The spirit mine is underground, at least five hundred feet deep. If you practice in it, you can only absorb the earth's spiritual energy, which is equivalent to practicing on the ground. Ordinary monks will not take risks. If you sneak into the spirit mine to dig for spirit stones, it is better to kill people and seize them directly.

Bao. Even so, there are monks in the late stage of the Gangli Realm sitting here, which shows that Kailing Sect attaches great importance to the spiritual mine. There may also be a magic circle at the entrance of the spiritual mine. How do you plan to sneak in?"

Gu Xuan stared at the uncertain clouds and mist, thoughtfully: "How is the defense of this formation?"

"If you rashly use your telekinesis, you're afraid of alerting the guarding monks. Let's switch sides and I'll use my secret telekinesis to observe."

After changing places with Gu Xuan's soul, Wang Mang used his telekinesis and carefully observed the white mist in the valley.

"This formation will never exceed the fifth level. Its defensive power is equivalent to the formation on Sanyoumen Prison Island. The sword light talisman can open a gap."

"There are only two sword-light talismans left." Gu Xuan smiled bitterly, "I once used the Hidden Hatred Bow to cast blood-colored light arrows against Master Wuhen's divine light. The two were equally powerful."
