C12

Mu Xuan withdrew his aura, and when the Flame Wolf and the Hunting Pig confronted each other, he carefully went to the deepest part of the pile of rocks in the Hunting Pig's nest.

Under a huge rock, there was a hole that was half the height of a human. There was still the aura of the Hunting Pig, and that place was probably the home of the Hunting Pig.

He carefully observed the rocky terrain along the way. There was a lack of spiritual energy here, making it seem extremely desolate. There shouldn't be any treasures, but why would this Hunting Pig set up its feet here? It was really hard for him to understand what was going on.

Afraid that there were still demon beasts guarding the cave, Mu Xuan used a stone to test the waters.

What he didn't know was that all Stage Four and below demon beasts cultivated independently and had their own territory. Unless they were in a group, there wouldn't be any other demon beasts living in their territory.

Because there were only Stage Four demon beasts, which were equivalent to the human stage of the pregnant god realm, that had the intelligence of humans and had the awareness to establish their own power. For example, this Fire Wolf pack, who only had a stage two and already had quite a strong intelligence, was purely a coincidence.

After a long time, when there were still no movements, Mu Xuan finally said with relief, "It should be fine. Hehe, I'm really looking forward to seeing what good stuff this Hunting Pig has."

He tiptoed, bent over, and entered the Hunting Pig's nest.

After going in, Mu Xuan found that the cave was not bad. The spiritual energy inside was much richer than outside. No wonder the Hunting Pig had chosen to stay here.

However, the downward slope made Mu Xuan uncomfortable.

After walking for a hundred meters, Mu Xuan stopped at a flat and empty spot. He looked at the tunnels before him, unsure of where he should go.

The nine entrances were still going downhill, but the slope was slightly sloped than when they had first entered the cave.

He threw one stone down and four of the stones responded. Mu Xuan knew that the four stones weren't very deep.

The other three also echoed out, probably only slightly longer than the first four.

Only the leftmost and right-most cave mouth never answered. Mu Xuan didn't know how to choose this time.

When he came to look for the boar's lair, he did not expect to find such a strange place. Let's not take a look! He wasn't willing to give up, but he had to go down. I'm afraid it's not safe.

After some thought, he chose the middle one. It was one of the three lines that answered at about the same time.

After entering, Mu Xuan felt a different atmosphere. It was much brighter here compared to when he had first entered the cave, but it was much more desolate.

Walking down the cave, Mu Xuan took an incense stick of time before he saw a relatively wide cave. It was also the deepest part of the cave, and it was similarly flat.

There was a luminous pearl that illuminated the entire cave from above with a radius of ten Zhang.

Looking up and down the cave, Mu Xuan was curious. There was nothing in this huge cave, but the Luminous Pearl shouldn't exist here!

However, it was certain that this place was not the lair of the Hunting Pig. Otherwise, it would not be empty.

It was only now that Mu Xuan realized why the boar had chosen to stay here. Even when facing the two Fire Wolves led by a peak rank 2 Magus, it wouldn't back down even if it died.

There must be something strange about this place, perhaps it was a hermit's cave.

After carefully inspecting the cave, Mu Xuan still couldn't find anything. He had no choice but to check the four shortest caves.

The result was pretty much the same as before. Other than a large space inside with a luminous pearl on the top, there was nothing else.

"Now there are only four left. They are getting closer and closer to the boar's lair. I don't believe that this boar can hide so deep!"

He picked a random cave entrance that echoed. Mu Xuan went in, but the result was the same as before.

Gradually, Mu Xuan felt that there was a problem with his conjecture. What hadn't he thought of?

Unwilling to give up, he searched the last echoing cave. Although it was a bit long, there was nothing special about it after he entered. It was just like the other caves he had explored.

Frowning, Mu Xuan muttered to himself: "That shouldn't be the case. This cave doesn't look like the home of a Hunting Pig? Isn't this his lair? However, the central area of the stone forest is right here, and the place with the densest aura is also this place? "

Rubbing his forehead, Mu Xuan said firmly, "Then I will see what's so special about the last two unfathomable caves!"

Feeling like he was about to die, Mu Xuan stepped into the cave on the far right.

What he did not expect was that he had reached the end before he had even gone far. It was just that this place was like a small world! Herbs were everywhere, but the size of the cave was small, only about seventy to eighty feet in radius.

However, there were a total of three Night Pearls above the cave, maintaining the growth of the herbs in the cave.

It was no wonder that Mu Xuan had used the stone to check if there was any response. When the stone fell into the grass, it wouldn't make any sound at all.

The spiritual energy here was dense, and the air was humid. It was very suitable for growing medicinal herbs. However, these values existed in the cave, and the entrance was only one step, but it was one heaven and one earth.

Mu Xuan was sure that someone had set up a ban on this place and prevented the release of spiritual power, maintaining the environment here.

At the same time, Mu Xuan didn't find anything useful. Apart from herbs, this place didn't look like a lair of a boar. Most of the herbs seemed to have been picked not long ago and were newly grown.

There were also some that had obvious traces of harvesting. Moreover, they seemed to be very urgent, and their harvesting techniques were also very tender. Otherwise, they wouldn't have only picked some spiritual medicines and left behind fruits under their roots.

As long as he knew the place, he wouldn't have to worry about not getting anything. It was just that if he picked something now and didn't have a place to put it, he would be afraid of alarming the Hunting Pig. After all, this was its territory, and Mu Xuan didn't believe that the Hunting Pig didn't know about this.

Exiting the cave, Mu Xuan walked to the last cave with anticipation. This time, he walked for a long time before he truly felt the light.

This was the smallest cave, but also the cave with the densest spiritual energy.

Within the three meter radius cave, there was a pit filled with treasures. Most of them were medicinal herbs, and some of them were materials used to refine weapons. There was even a two meter square green space filled with medicinal herbs.

The feces of the boar were also piled up inside to hasten the growth of the elixir.

Mu Xuan found this funny, but he also admired the fact that a Rank Three Hunting Pig knew how to use external forces to produce elixirs.

When Mu Xuan saw the traces of a stone door on the stone wall in the corner, he was shocked. "Is this really the cave of a hermit master?"

He carefully walked in front of the stone door and pushed with both of his hands, but the stone door did not move at all.

Mu Xuan didn't believe what he had just heard. He increased his strength, but there was still no reaction. Furthermore, due to excessive force, the wound on his back that had just healed had opened up once again.

There was no other way. Mu Xuanyin had promised to come back in the future if there was a chance, or she could go back and tell her parents to come back.

However, he suddenly discovered that there was a button sized stone on the stone door that stood out quite a bit. He was curious and was about to remove it.

Mu Xuan couldn't take it off no matter how hard he tried. In his anger, he started to turn around.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Mu Xuan was shocked when he heard the door open.

"What's going on? I'm actually this talented? "

At this moment, the bellow of the Hunting Pig and Fire Wolf could be heard from outside.

Mu Xuan knew that one side must have succeeded in forcing the other side to compromise.

After deciding whether to enter or not, Mu Xuan finally chose to enter. If he went out now, he might have to face the Hunting Pig and the Fire Wolf.

Regardless of which side he was facing, Mu Xuan, who hadn't even cultivated a battle technique or weapon, was at a disadvantage.

Therefore, he resolutely stepped through the stone door.

The space behind the stone door was very small. It was about the size of a room and was located in the center of a stone platform.

Looking at the stone platform, Mu Xuan was shocked and almost went out. When he turned around, he found that the stone door had closed again.

Helplessly, Mu Xuan looked around the sealed space.

On the wall in the sky, an unusually tall luminous pearl emitted a faint glow, illuminating the closed stone chamber.

On the stone platform in the middle sat a skeleton. It stared at a direction with unwillingness and its hands powerlessly fell to the ground.

Above the dried bones, a white robe was covering them, as if it had been recently covered by someone.

Looking at the white shirt, Mu Xuan felt that it was familiar. However, he didn't remember seeing it there. Instead, he looked at it confidently.

There should have been something on the bones, but it was taken away by someone. Because some of the bones were messed up, some of them seemed to have been pieced together, but without careful observation, it was impossible to tell.

Aside from the stone platform in the middle, there were three other smaller stone platforms with grooves on them. It seemed like these were left behind by their owner.

However, it was completely empty now.

Mu Xuan carefully checked every corner of the stone chamber, but didn't find anything useful. He was a little disappointed.

"It seems that someone already got in first. Only the things of the boar and the medicinal plants in the cave have some value."

Looking at the dried bone, Mu Xuan stared blankly for a long time before sighing and saying, "No matter what, you are still the ancestor of my human race. Looking at the dried bone, Mu Xuan stared blankly for a long time before sighing and saying," After all, you are still the ancestor of my human race.

However, after rummaging in his bosom for a long time, he couldn't find anything to offer as a sacrifice. Originally, there were some Demonic Cores, but in order to entangle the Hunting Pig with the Flame Wolf, he gave them to the Hunting Pig.

The only thing left in his hand was a Fire Spirit Fruit. This was something he had risked his life for.

With some reluctance, he took out the Fire Spirit Fruit. When he arrived in front of the skeleton, he respectfully said: "Senior, I don't have anything else. I can only take this Fire Spirit Fruit to pay my respects to you!"

As he spoke, he reluctantly used the ancient technique he knew of to turn the Fire Spirit Fruit into juice and dripped a little onto the dried bone.

What Mu Xuan didn't notice was that the juice of the Fire Spirit Fruit had been completely absorbed by the stone platform beneath the dried up bones.

When all the juice from the Fire Spirit Fruit had been poured onto his bones, Mu Xuan knelt down in front of the stone table and kowtowed a few times.

"Hm!" What a nice little fellow! "

"Who?"

Mu Xuan jumped up before he finished kowtowing.

This was too strange. He was the only one here, yet there was someone else speaking.

"Hurry up and kowtow, kowtow the last one before I come out!"

Although Mu Xuan was curious, he couldn't keep his head down. His only thought was to get out.

"Hurry up!" I'm not even afraid! What are you afraid of! "

Mu Xuan muttered in his heart, "You are definitely not afraid! You can see me, but I can't see you! "

However, in order to know who was speaking, Mu Xuan closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, knelt down again and kowtowed to the last person.

The ancient method of offering sacrifices not only required one spiritual item, but also nine heads to be considered complete. The higher the grade of the spiritual item used, the more respectful one would be towards the dead.

As Mu Xuan kowtowed for the ninth time, the stone platform shook and the bones turned into dust. A faint figure appeared in front of Mu Xuan.

The figure looked at the stone room and paused for a long time before sighing, "It seems like my guarding is out of date!"

Then, like a wolf seeing a sheep, he looked at Mu Xuan and said, "But this is a pretty good guy."
