Chapter 166
Tang Yin smiled, waved his hand and said, "No need to download TXT."
"Hey? Young man, please take some more, otherwise we will be embarrassed to accept so much gold from you." The two hunters handed the straw basket to Tang Yin. No matter how much the latter delayed, they still asked him to pick more. Tang Yin had no choice but to take out a few more ginsengs, shake the soil on them slightly, then stuff them directly into his mouth and chew them.
The freshly dug ginseng was bitter and sweet, sweet and bitter, and not very tasty. Tang Yin could get used to this taste. He was never picky about food, let alone when he was hungry.
After receiving so much gold from Tang Yin, the two hunters kindly advised him again not to go into the mountains, but Tang Yin didn't take it seriously. Seeing his disapproval, the two hunters could only sigh heavily, feeling in their hearts I prayed silently, hoping that nothing would happen to him.
The rest was almost over, and the two hunters said goodbye to Tang Yin. They had made so much gold in the mountains this time, and the two hunters were satisfied and did not plan to collect more. They wanted to go out of the mountains and go home.
Tang Yin watched the two of them leave with a smile. He left two of the ginseng he bought and ate the rest. Then he stood up, rubbed his hands, stretched his muscles, and began to climb quickly to the top of the mountain.
He has strong skills and does not need the assistance of equipment. His body is like a monkey, sometimes crawling and sometimes jumping, and he quickly reaches the top of the bench.
When they reached the top of the mountain, there were many strange rocks and weeds. Unintentionally, Tang Yin found writing on a huge stone, with the words "Yun Zhongzi arrived late for a tour" engraved on it. He touched the mark with his hand and saw that it had been scratched in hard by the spirit soldiers. After looking at it, he shook his head and smiled. It seemed that explorers had already visited this place. Like modern people, people in this era seemed to be accustomed to leaving evidence in the places they passed.
He curled his lips and walked to the other side of the mountain. According to the two hunters, the foot of the mountain here is the center of Wanshou Mountain. He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. Surrounded by mist, he couldn't see at all. When he reached the bottom of the mountain, he picked up a big stone and threw it far away.
As the boulder fell, he counted silently in his mind, one, two, three, four... When he counted to ten, he vaguely heard an echo from the bottom of the mountain.
It took ten seconds for such a big stone to hit the ground. A little calculation showed that it must be hundreds of meters deep below, which is much deeper than the other side. It can be seen that the center of Wan Beast Mountain is also a block of stone. A low-lying valley, and a very deep one at that.
If an ordinary person saw such a deep valley alone, he would definitely not dare to go down, but Tang Yin didn't care. He exuded spiritual energy and covered his palms with spiritual armor, so that he could hold on more firmly when he went down. Then, he The shape swayed and climbed rapidly from the top of the mountain to the valley.
This side of the mountain is indeed much deeper than the other side, and the further you climb down, the less light there is. The sky is blocked by the surrounding mountains. Fortunately, Tang Yin is a dark spiritual cultivator, so his sight is not a problem. He climbed halfway down. At this time, the humidity increased, and the rocks were covered with moss, which was wet and slippery. At this time, the spiritual armor on Tang Yin's palm came into play. His ten fingers were like iron hooks, tightly clasping the cliff to support his body. Slip off midway.
Even Tang Yin spent a lot of effort to get from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley.
This valley is much larger than Tang Yin expected. The entrance at the top is narrow, but the bottom is very open. It is shaped like a gourd. However, the light is too dark. If Tang Yin is not a dark spiritual cultivator, it will be difficult for him to see at the bottom of the valley. things.
Perhaps because of the lack of sunlight all year round, there were many plants growing here that Tang Yin had never seen or heard of before. It even gave him the illusion that he was in another world, and everything seemed so novel.
He slowly explored forward. Instead of grass, the ground was covered with huge mushrooms. Some mushrooms were even as big as an adult's palms. Tang Yin had never seen such a big mushroom before and couldn't help but walk to a giant mushroom. Come closer, break off a piece and want to taste what it tastes like.
But the moment he broke off the mushroom, a dense mass of black beetles suddenly emerged from the fracture and crawled onto his palm. Tang Yin reacted very quickly, immediately emitting spiritual energy and covering his body with spiritual armor. , and at the same time, those black beetles crawled along his palms and feet all over his body, biting crazily.
When the beetle gnawed at the spiritual armor, it made a subtle and harsh friction sound.
What kind of weird bug is this? ! Tang Yin shook off an insect on his palm, then turned back to protect his eyes. While muttering in his heart, the fire of darkness arose, and he heard a whoosh, and his whole body was covered by the fire of darkness. With a hissing sound, the beetle that climbed onto him instantly turned into spiritual mist.
The beetles were tiny, numbering in the thousands, but the aura they turned into was very thick. They floated in the air and condensed into a ball. Tang Yin looked up. As he breathed, the aura slowly entered his body. He closed his eyes and recollected. After a while, he realized He murmured two words: "Pure!"
The aura of these beetles is not only purer than that of wild beasts, but even purer than that of humans, as if they were grown by sucking the essence of heaven and earth.
I didn't expect these disgusting bugs to have such pure spiritual energy. Tang Yin was overjoyed and smashed the mushroom he had broken off into pieces. In a moment, more beetles appeared. Although there were many beetles, they crawled onto Tang Yin's body like moths rushing to a flame, never to return. In a short time, the beetles crawling out of the giant mushroom were burned to death by the fire of darkness.
Tang Yin let out a long breath and looked around. There were giant mushrooms everywhere at the bottom of the valley. There were countless black beetles. If he sucked them all, he estimated that his cultivation level would be directly promoted from the Spiritual Yuan realm to the Spiritual Heaven realm.
Thinking of this, he grinned. As the saying goes, he entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain just to practice the fire of darkness, but he didn't expect to encounter such a treasure land to increase his cultivation.
It is good to be able to practice the Dark Fire to the point where the soul is burning, but it would be even better if the cultivation level is raised to the spiritual realm.
Tang Yin couldn't restrain the joy in his heart and immediately went to break open another giant mushroom next to him. But after breaking it open, he could only see the white flesh of the mushroom and not a single beetle. Tang Yin was unwilling to accept it and even got his hands and feet on it. , I trampled the mushrooms to pieces and didn’t see any sign of the beetle.
"Damn, what's going on?" Tang Yin's heart was full of joy, and he instantly turned into a heart full of disappointment. Could it be that there were so many mushrooms in the whole valley, and only that one had a beetle in it? Which one did you happen to catch up with? There is no such coincidence in the world.
He was unwilling to give in and didn't believe that he would be so lucky. He simply took out the machete and chopped off several mushrooms with a wave of his hand. However, like the mushroom just now, there was still no beetle inside. When he walked a few more meters and chopped off more than twenty mushrooms in a row, he finally saw a large number of beetles emerging from the mushrooms. This time he was very careful, trying not to let the beetles escape, using the fire of darkness to Smoke them all.
After trying a few more times, Tang Yin discovered that there were not beetles in every mushroom, but that the beetles seemed to regard the mushrooms as their own nests, gnawing away the meat inside and living in them. There were only beetles in each mushroom group. One or two of the mushrooms were inhabited by beetles.
So that’s it! He smiled bitterly and shook his head. Although the aura of beetles was pure, the number was relatively small. He didn't have much time to check which mushrooms contained beetles and which ones did not.
He did not dare to dissipate his spiritual armor, but instead closed his swords, transformed his spirit into a sickle, and continued deeper into the valley. In this unknown valley, crises are everywhere, and he dare not be careless in the slightest.
There are many plants and animals in the valley, and they are all animals that Tang Yin has never seen before.
These animals are not large in size. Some are similar to lizards. The scales on their bodies are covered with barbs and they run extremely fast. Some are soft-bodied and have no bones. They wriggle on the ground like large maggots and have sticky bodies. It was thick and full of venom. As soon as Tang Yin came closer, the maggots sprayed venom like him, splashing on the spiritual armor, hissing and corroding the blue smoke.
It sprayed poisonous water at Tang Yin, and Tang Yin responded with dark fire.
The animals in the valley have one thing in common, that is, no matter how weird and disgusting their appearance is, the spiritual energy they turn into after being burned by the fire of darkness is very pure, and Tang Yin can benefit a lot from inhaling it.
If he doesn't know how to use the dark fire, if he doesn't cover his body with dark fire, then he will be dead when he touches those beetles.
Although spiritual cultivators can use spiritual armor to protect their bodies, they cannot protect their eyes. When beetles crawl all over their bodies, even if they can protect their eyes with their hands, the beetles can slowly remove the spiritual armor from them bit by bit. If you eat it, you will end up with no bones left.
Tang Yin regards the creatures in the valley as treasures to enhance his own cultivation, while for others, these things are all deadly demons.
He walked for a long time and arrived at the center of the valley. This was the only place where there would be some sunshine at noon. However, there was no grass growing here and the ground was bare. Looking towards the center, there was only a black hole more than three meters wide on the ground. It was pitch black and bottomless.
There are actually bottomless caves in the bottomless valley, which makes people marvel at the wonder of the Creator.
Tang Yin walked slowly to the edge of the cave and looked inside. He saw nothing, but there was a faint yin energy coming towards him.
He was already brave enough, but at this moment he still couldn't help but shudder secretly, and subconsciously took a step back.
His reason told him not to go in, but his strong curiosity couldn't help but want to go inside and find out.
After thinking about it, he decided to go in and take a look.
Now that I'm here, if I don't find out clearly, I'm afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life.
Since he didn't bring a rope, Tang Yin had to climb down bit by bit. He disassembled the sickle and turned it into two spiritual knives. Then he inserted the scimitar into the stone wall of the cave, using it as a support, and climbed down bit by bit.
