Chapter 106: Secret Realm of the Elves
"It? The guardian beast of the tribe?"
Yin Yue and Xiao Jing looked at each other and saw each other's surprise.
The two were surprised not because the other party regarded the sand beast as a sacred beast, despite its wolf-headed, scorpion-tailed and ferocious appearance. After all, there are all kinds of strange beasts in the world, and there are many kinds of magical beasts used as totems. For example, Yin Yue knew that some small races used centipedes and moths as totems.
What surprised them was the strength of this guardian beast.
Although this sand beast has reached the perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, it has not yet reached the Spiritual Transformation stage. Wouldn't it be too weak for this tribe to be used as the guardian beast of the tribe?
"You two may not know that this alien sand beast is just a clone, and the real body is in our tribe."
As if sensing the contempt in the two men's eyes, the young man in white robe explained.
If a clone has such strength, the original body must be even more amazing.
After listening to what the young man in white robe said, Yin Yue couldn't help but look at the sand beast a few more times.
Alien monsters, because there is a trace of mutant energy in their blood, often have abilities that ordinary monsters do not possess when they grow up.
This sand beast turned out to be a different species, no wonder it has magical powers that ordinary sand beasts don't have. It's just a mutant monster, it's extremely difficult to survive. This sand beast clone can actually cultivate to this level, so it seems that it should be an ancient relic.
After the young man explained, he continued: "I apologize for my rudeness, young lady!"
"It just ate our camel..." Xiaojing said from the side.
Yin Yue reached out to stop her from saying anything else. To a cultivator, these mundane things were nothing.
Seeing that he seemed very sincere, she thought that neither of them actually had much to lose, so she let it go.
Then she nodded, raised her hand, and put away the Heaven-Covering Seal and the Immortal Binding Rope.
The sand beast escaped from the predicament, stood up, shook its body, and then sucked in the distance. In an instant, rolling yellow sand flowed into its bloody mouth like the Yellow River flowing into the sea, and within a few breaths, everything on its body was intact.
Then, it raised its head and howled happily, nodded to the two young men in white robes to express its gratitude, and then turned into a ray of light and gradually disappeared into the depths of the desert.
As the sand beast left, the yellow sand in the sky gradually subsided.
"Thank you, both girls!"
The young man in white robe said, "This incident was caused by us. You two are in the desert. If there is any inconvenience, you can raise it and we will try our best to meet your needs!"
The young man is polite and people tend to like him.
"Although the camel is lost, the luggage bag is still there, so it doesn't matter much." Yin Yue said with a smile.
Just before the storm came, Yin Yue put the luggage bag into her space ring.
"Handsome guy, we would like to ask you, how far is this place from Fengming Sand Valley?" Xiao Jing asked casually.
This address was marked on the jade slip given to them by the elven elders.
It is said that the elves' settlement is nearby.
As soon as the words "Fengming Shagu" came out, the two young men's faces changed.
The young man in white robe took a deep breath and asked, "Why are you two looking for Fengming Sand Valley?"
Xiaojing felt confused when she saw the two men's alert expressions.
Yin Yue's face remained calm. She smiled calmly and said, "We are looking for someone!"
"Looking for someone? Don't know who it is?" The young man in white robe said, "Maybe we know."
"An old friend!" Yin Yue thought for a moment, glanced at the patterns on their chests, and smiled, "Ivan!"
"Ivan?"
Hearing this, the two young men looked at each other.
"What's wrong? Do you two know Elder Ivan?" Xiaojing asked back when she saw this.
"More than just knowing him, he is the third elder of our clan!" said the young man in white robe with a smile.
"Oh, so you are the elves, right?" Xiao Jing interrupted.
"Yes, we are!"
The young man in white robe said seriously, "You two are looking for our third elder. Do you have any tokens?"
The third elder Ivan has disappeared for more than a hundred years. The clan has sent people to look for him many times, but all have returned empty-handed.
Just when everyone thought he had fallen, more than ten years ago, Ivan unexpectedly returned on his own, causing a sensation at the time.
Ivan himself stated that he was trapped in a dangerous place for some reason and was later rescued by others.
In this regard, he once instructed the guards guarding the entrance to the tribe that if someone came with his token, they should not neglect it. The elves have always been clear about gratitude and resentment, and they will repay kindness, so no one was surprised.
Now that these two people have found this place and know the secret language of Fengmingshagu, they must be related to the elder.
In fact, Yin Yue had learned from the jade slip given by Ivan that this place was not far from the destination. In addition, she had guessed something from the patterns on the chests of the two men.
"Of course we have the token!"
After Yin Yue finished speaking, she took out a leaf from her storage bracelet. This leaf was the token that Ivan gave her.
Yin Yue had seen countless trees, but had never seen leaves like these.
The leaves are like jasper, smooth as a mirror, and emerald green. The leaves are diamond-shaped, with extremely complex veins and patterns.
The young man in blue robe stepped forward to take the leaf with both hands, then presented it to the young man in white robe.
The young man in white robe picked up the green leaf with a serious expression, examined it carefully, and then nodded.
"Yes! It is Elder Ivan's token!"
This kind of leaf is unique to the elves. Of course, the most important thing is that the young man in white robe felt the spiritual consciousness left by Ivan on the leaves.
"The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and family members no longer recognize each other!"
The young man in white robe bowed and apologized, saying with a smile: "Please come in, two distinguished guests!"
So, Yin Yue and the other person followed the two young men and stepped forward.
As they walked and talked, Yin Yue realized that the two young men were actually the guards of the elves.
The young man in blue robe is named Xilan, a first-level guard. The young man in white robe is the deputy commander of the guards, named Xiluo. During the training process, Ivan had given Xiluo a lot of guidance. Therefore, he naturally paid special attention to Ivan's advice.
Ten minutes later, Yin Yue saw two sand hills in the distance.
These two sand hills are huge, far exceeding the surrounding sand dunes, like two small pyramids stretching before our eyes.
"The Fengming Sand Valley is ahead!" the young man in white robe said to Yinyue and Xiaojing.
Since Yin Yue and Xiao Jing were the lifesavers of the Third Elder, they were naturally honored guests of the clan. There was nothing to hide about this.
The four people walked closer, and suddenly a rustling sound was heard above their heads.
Yin Yue and Xiao Jing looked up and saw sand rolling down the sand hill on the left, revealing two holes in the middle. Looking closely, they saw something glittering in the holes, which turned out to be two eyes.
However, his eyes turned away, revealing dissatisfaction and disgust.
Yin Yue and Xiao Jing shook their heads and smiled bitterly at each other. This was the sand beast they had encountered before, hiding here.
There are two sand hills standing side by side, with no way to go between them.
Just when Yin Yue thought she was about to fly over, she saw Xi Luo nodding to the blue-robed young man Xi Lan.
Xilan then took out a magic wand from the storage ring.
The body of the staff was as white as jade, engraved with strange patterns, and a huge sapphire was inlaid at the top.
Xilan held the staff in both hands and whispered, as if reciting an obscure spell.
After a few breaths, he shouted loudly, grabbed the staff with his right hand and raised it suddenly into the air. A blue light suddenly emitted from the staff and shot into the sky.
Boom!
There was a loud thunder in the sunny day!
As the blue light in the sky disappeared, the ground suddenly shook slightly.
Yin Yue looked up and saw that the sand hills around her were moving, as if they were not made of flowing sand but living things.
A vast and boundless aura spread out, seeming to cover the entire desert.
Yinyue and Xiaojing were shocked. They were speechless when they recalled how they had originally thought that the elves were so weak.
In front of this energy fluctuation, Yin Yue suddenly felt her own insignificance. She believed that if she was not a guest but an invading enemy, she would be instantly destroyed from soul to body in front of this energy fluctuation.
It seems that this should be the elves' protective formation.
Two minutes later, the ground shaking stopped. A four-foot-wide passage appeared between the two sand hills.
There are sand hills on both sides of the passage. When people stand on the ground and look up, they feel as if two peaks are reaching into the clouds and the sky is connected.
After walking about a hundred steps forward, Yin Yue faintly heard the sound of birds singing from the other end of the passage, and there was also a faint scent of flowers.
Yin Yue was surprised, with blue light flashing in her eyes. At the end of the sand road, she looked carefully and saw green everywhere.
There seemed to be a green valley over there. I thought that must be the secret place where the elves lived in seclusion.
