However, after releasing his divine sense to scan within ten miles, there were no traces of any fighting. He didn't know where the owner of this severed hand was now, whether he was dead or had left.
With a wave of his hand, he released the several earth spirit bees he had released earlier. The earth spirit bees buzzed a few times and flew directly in another direction.
The situation discovered by these earth spirit bees was not this severed hand. Instead, they detected a place emitting a strong spiritual energy.
A moment later, on the other side of the cliff, Zhang Ling saw a stone cave several feet in size. There was also an open space in front of the stone cave, scattered with some stones of varying sizes. A gust of cold wind blew out from the stone cave.
But this cold wind was also mixed with a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy. After sensing it, Zhang Ling was overjoyed. The fluctuation of spiritual energy was actually three points stronger than the spiritual energy emitted by a medium-grade spiritual vein.
Zhang Ling immediately concluded that there was a spiritual vein inside.
After carefully scanning the surrounding environment, he found that under the thick dust on the ground, he could actually see sections of bluestone steps. Obviously, there were traces of human activity here, and it might be another ancient cultivator's ruins. It seems that he found the right place.
Zhang Ling was overjoyed. The spiritual energy in the cave was strong. If the earth spirit fruit truly grew in this valley, it was likely to be inside.
He pondered for a moment and did not go in immediately. Instead, he patted the storage bag around his waist and released two soldier-armor puppets to enter and explore the way.
After waiting for a while, after all the ten thousand earth spirit bees flew back, he took the two-tailed cat into the stone cave.
The space in the stone cave was not small, with a dozen winding passages.
Zhang Ling divided his divine sense into several strands and explored these passages. There were many stone doors of the same style built inside, which looked quite regular.
He randomly walked into a passage and opened the nearest stone door. Inside was a space of ten feet in size, the layout was very simple, there were some stone tables and chairs, but it was covered with dust, obviously no one had been here for a long time.
After entering and searching for a while, he didn't find anything, but there was also a small square door at the innermost part of the stone cave, covered with a layer of faint white light.
Zhang Ling's hand flashed with green light, and he slashed out several sword lights. The stone door was easily split open by him, and the next moment he sensed a full spiritual energy.
Scanning inside with his divine sense, he roughly knew the function of this small stone house. The space inside was not large but the spiritual power was abundant, much stronger than the spiritual energy emitted by a medium-grade spiritual vein. This was obviously a quiet room for cultivators to practice.
Suddenly, with a wave of Zhang Ling's hand, two yellow jade bottles flew out of the stone house. After opening them, they were empty.
Zhang Ling smiled and exited the stone house, and then opened several stone houses, the layout inside was exactly the same. Without thinking, he could guess that the stone houses in the passage were places for the disciples of the ancient sect to practice.
Then he walked directly to the largest passage, which was located on the leftmost side of a passage, a gust of cold wind blowing out from inside, bringing out a more intense spiritual energy fluctuation.
The two pathfinding puppets that had been released earlier were now in this passage. Through the divine sense attached to the puppets, the two puppets stopped at a certain position, seemingly blocked by a restriction.
This passage was very long, but before long, Zhang Ling saw two puppets, they were stopped in front of a broken stone door, being blocked by a layer of white light curtain.
This was a circular stone door several feet high, with many cracks on it, but the walls around the circular stone door were engraved with dense mysterious array patterns, constantly flashing with spiritual light, obviously still playing a role.
Forming a layer of white light curtain, covering the entire stone door. Divine sense fell on the light curtain and was bounced away, unable to detect the situation behind.
Zhang Ling flashed to the front of the light curtain. There was a plaque on the door opening, carved with several ancient characters. These were three ancient immortal characters, written as Huangyan Cave three characters.
Sensing the strength of the light curtain, he found that it was not very strong. Zhang Ling directly shot, urging two flying swords to attack the light curtain.
After a burst of rumbling noises, the white light curtain flickered on and off. Seeing this scene, Zhang Ling urged the sword art in his hand, and summoned two more flying swords to quickly merge, turning into a huge light sword, with a loud bang, the light curtain was directly split into pieces, turning into little starlight and dissipating.
The cracking sound of shattering entered his ears at the same time.
I saw that there were more cracks on the walls of the stone gate, and at the same time, the array patterns on it were dimmed, but after a while, the spiritual light lit up again, and it seemed that a new light gate was about to form.
Zhang Ling smiled and flashed into it. What caught his eye was a variety of flowers and plants.
Glancing around, he found that the ground was covered with spiritual herbs. It was really a medicine garden, with an area of seven or eight acres. Not only were the spiritual herbs growing in a mess, but even the stone walls were growing a lot.
At his feet grew a patch of bright red flowers. Each of these red flowers was only the size of a fist, and there were traces of gold threads on the petals.
Zhang Ling recognized it at once. This is the second-grade golden thread flower. Looking around, there were hundreds of these golden thread flowers, and the medicinal age was about a hundred years. Among them, there were several golden flowers, these golden thread flowers above five hundred years.
Walking past this golden thread flower, you can see a purple mist-filled area, where some half-foot-high gray grasses grow, and a wheat-like corncob grows out of the top of these grasses, flashing with purple spiritual light.
This is purple mist grass, which also belongs to the second-grade rare spiritual medicine.
Then he found a white velvet spiritual ginseng, and also seven-leaf flower, golden sword grass and more than a dozen different spiritual grasses and spiritual flowers. They are all second-grade spiritual medicines, and there are basically hundreds of each.
Looking at the numerous spiritual herbs in front of him, Zhang Ling had a feeling of getting rich overnight. These second-grade spiritual medicines alone are worth six to seven hundred thousand spiritual stones.
Crossing this area of second-grade spiritual medicines, a large area in the middle is sparsely growing some flowers and plants.
Looking around a few times, he was overjoyed again.
In front of him was a half-person-high gray-white shrub, with a piece of emerald green strip-shaped leaves hanging on it. This is snake-shaped wood, which belongs to the third-grade spiritual medicine.
Ten feet away on the ground, the ground bulged in a piece, growing some black balls, these black balls are like potatoes buried in the soil, and there are some white spiritual patterns on them. This is another kind of third-grade spiritual medicine.
Zhang Ling turned around and found thirty or forty third-grade spiritual herbs. The age is also mostly around two hundred years. There are also some spiritual medicines that he does not recognize.
In the very center area surrounded by these third-grade spiritual medicines, it was covered by a layer of blue spiritual light.
However, a sweep of divine sense easily passed through this layer of spiritual light. This is just a small restriction to divide the medicine field, and it does not have any other great effect.
