Chapter 207 Cave Exploration
The elder shook off the ashes from his cigarette.
"However, there is no reward for your mission."
"Besides, there's no time for you to rest."
"A new mission has arrived."
The nod at the end of the season seemed to have been expected.
After all, he has proven himself to be useful as a tool. Based on the belief that if it is useful, he should use it to the utmost, how could he possibly let himself rest?
The elder exhaled a puff of white smoke and pulled out a map.
His fingers, holding a cigarette, touched the red mark on the map.
"This time, your mission is to explore the mountains surrounding Lin Village."
"There are beast symbols in it. You need to confirm whether it is exactly the same as the map."
"There are wild beasts in the mountains. Their realm is unknown, but they should not be higher than the third level." "Your mission is not only to investigate, but also to find the beast and hunt it down."
"I'll mark the specific details on this map."
"You can check it out yourself. Remember to take your spoils back after hunting."
"If its realm is far higher than yours, you must find out where its lair is. The information must be accurate and correct."
The elder's expression was extremely serious. After that, he handed the map to Ji Mo.
At the end of the season, I took it and looked at it carefully. The map was very clear after the changes made over the generations.
The mountains were clearly marked, so at the end of the season, the map was rolled up and placed in the storage ring.
The elder took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff.
White smoke came out of his nostrils.
"lets go."
"it is good."
Ji Mo turned around and walked out of the house, with no emotion on his calm face.
The mountains next to Lin Village are not steep, and various trees are mixed together very densely.
The mountain is several hundred meters high and it doesn't take long to climb to the top.
The real mission begins after reaching the top of the mountain. There is a flat land on the top of the mountain, and if you go deeper, you will see criss-crossing gullies.
The mountain range itself is an extension of the ancient forest. There are many wild beasts in it. However, near the edge, there are very few beasts of considerable strength, and they are extremely rare. Usually, only beasts that cannot survive in the deep forest will wander around the edge.
It was cold at the moment, the snow had just stopped, and the ground was covered in white.
There were very few footprints on the snow-white ground. Ji Mo held the map in his hand and continued to move forward following the markings on the map.
According to the markings on the map, not far ahead is where rabbits often appear.
At the end of the season, he observed the clues on the snow, his consciousness spreading around, and he could vaguely feel the life activities in the surrounding underground caves.
The weather was extremely cold, bitingly so, that almost all the animals without any state of mind chose to sleep in caves.
Apart from the animals that were extremely hungry and had to go out hunting, there was almost no sign of life.
At the end of the season, he walked to the place marked on the map, reached out his hand to melt the snow on the ground, and saw a rabbit cage hanging on the wet ground.
"Yes, the direction is correct."
At the end of the season, we continued to go deeper in the direction indicated by the map.
There are fewer trees in the deep forest.
The plum tree with pink buds hanging on it stands tall and graceful.
Some flowers can't wait to bloom, the fragrance wafts from afar, and some white snow hangs on the flowers as embellishment.
Like wearing a layer of white gauze.
After moving forward for a while, the tall trees gradually became denser, and the thick leaves blocked out the sky.
Only scattered light remained on the ground.
Ji Mo jumped onto the tree, activated [Fake to Real], [Breath Containment Technique], and [Concealment Technique], and turned into a leaf.
A series of exercises consumed a lot of Ji Mo's spiritual energy, but the effect was also obvious.
Now, even a third-level beast, as long as it is not specialized in exploration and concealment, and is not very close to the end of the season, even if the end of the season is sleeping in front of it, it cannot sense the existence of the end of the season.
Although the effect was so powerful, Ji Mo was not arrogant. He slowed down his breathing rate and took every step with extreme caution.
As an assassin, there is no room for carelessness before killing the target and escaping.
Even if the opponent's head is close at hand, you must not let your guard down.
Ji Mo kept changing directions on the treetops, and soon he came to a cave.
The cave is pitch black and extremely deep, and you can't see the end from the outside.
At the end of the season, consciousness spread out, and he carefully explored the scene inside the cave.
At the end of the season, the earlobes grew larger and turned silver, and the [Listening Tongue] that had not been seen for a long time was activated again.
Ji Mo listened carefully to the sounds coming from the cave.
There is no sound barrier or other sound-isolating formation in the cave.
At the end of the season, he could clearly hear the breathing sounds in the cave.
It breathes heavily and steadily.
After listening carefully for half an hour, Ji Mo confirmed that the other party had no intention of waking up. He drew out [Smiling], and the sharp blade gleamed in the sunlight.
"turbid current."
Ji Mo's consciousness moved slightly and came into contact with the weak consciousness in his mind. The two consciousnesses communicated, and the [Water Curtain] hidden in Ji Mo's waist pocket opened.
A stream of mucus flowed down Ji Mo's waist and wrapped around his entire body.
The mucus condensed on the surface of Ji Mo's skin, turning into a bubble film, which was very fitting. The only remaining breath of Ji Mo disappeared under the cover of the turbid current.
At the end of the season, he stuck to the wall, walked cautiously on the ground, and moved forward carefully.
Unknown minerals above the cave twinkle like stars, bringing a faint light.
Of course, this faint light was useless to Ji Mo. At this moment, his pupils could only see the alternating colors of black and white.
Ji Mo held a bead in his left hand, which was a demon pill from a first-level owl.
As a first-level monster, it is almost harmless. It has no hostility towards humans and will not go to places where humans gather. It usually feeds on voles and rabbits. Although it opens its spiritual intelligence after reaching the first level, it has no interest in fighting.
For this reason, the demon core of a first-level owl is now relatively rare. After all, there is no difference between a first-level owl and a wild beast just from the appearance. Many owls are hunted before they can reach the first level.
This demon pill was a gift from the elder, and its effect is relatively simple. When activated, the pupil will change briefly, and you can see clearly even in the dark, but you cannot see colors.
But for an assassin like Ji Mo, it is an indispensable treasure.
Moreover, the demon pill is only of the first level, so there is almost no backlash to endure.
Ji Mo slowly approached and gradually walked into the cave.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the narrow cave entrance suddenly opened up, revealing a different world within the cave.
The cave is about a hundred meters high and extremely spacious inside. A huge stalactite stands in the center of the cave.
Water flows together beside the stalactites, forming a small pool. Green light continuously flows in the pool, and extremely rich spiritual energy fluctuations are transmitted.
Ji Mo, who was watching from a distance, took a deep breath. Rich spiritual energy floated up from the pond and was inhaled into Ji Mo's nostrils.
Just inhaling it made Ji Mo's heart tremble.
The level of richness is nothing compared to the spiritual pond in the bamboo building. Even if it has not reached the third level, it is already the peak of the second level.
At the end of the season, he quickly calmed down and continued to observe.
