Mythical Cultivation

Chapter 406 Monk's Cave

Wu Ming looked at Shadow Mouse standing on his shoulder. Its round eyes blinked, making it look very cute.

Its body is covered with a layer of gray fur, which is smooth and soft, and shimmers faintly in the sunlight.

Wu Ming couldn't help but smile. He gently reached out and stroked Shadow Mouse's head, feeling the soft touch. He said softly, "Alright, that's it. Let's go!"

Before he finished speaking, Wu Ming used his body skills without hesitation, and rushed towards Qingping Town as fast as a ghost.

Although this light-weight skill is much slower than flying with a sword or riding a spirit boat, Wu Ming has no choice.

After all, in his current physical condition, his true essence had not yet fully recovered, and his spiritual consciousness was exhausted. Whether flying with a sword or riding a spiritual boat, it would require a large amount of true essence and spiritual consciousness to operate, which was obviously impossible for him.

Therefore, Wu Ming could only rely on this light-body technique that did not require true energy and spiritual awareness to travel. Although the speed was a little slower, it was better than walking.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, half a day has passed.

After a long journey, Wu Ming and Yingshu finally arrived at Qingping Town.

Along the way, Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh at the barrenness of this land.

Shadow Mouse explored everywhere along the way, hoping to find some treasure, but the results were disappointing.

Not only are spiritual herbs and fruits extremely rare, but other valuable items are also scarce.

It was afternoon when they entered Qingping Town.

The streets are bustling with people, the hawkers' cries are heard one after another, and passers-by come and go, it is very lively.

However, these people were just ordinary mortals, and Wu Ming did not see a single cultivator.

Wu Ming spent some time wandering around the town to see if he could find any items related to monks.

He strolled through the streets and alleys, carefully observing every shop.

After searching for about half an hour, he finally found the only shop that sold items related to monks.

However, when he walked into the store, his expectations were instantly shattered.

The number of elixirs in this shop was pitifully small, and the quality was quite average. Wu Ming selected some elixirs suitable for Qi Refining Realm cultivators to improve their cultivation, but these elixirs were of little use to him.

However, these pills can provide some help to Shadow Rat.

Although he did not get the coveted elixir, Wu Ming's trip was by no means in vain.

Just as he was strolling in the shop, he accidentally heard an exciting news: it was said that in a valley three hundred miles away, a cave dwelling belonging to a cultivator at least at the Foundation Establishment stage had appeared!

This news was like a flash of lightning across the night sky, instantly igniting the fire of hope in Wu Ming's heart.

You know, what does the cave of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm mean?

There must be countless precious treasures and rare resources hidden there, and there may even be treasures from heaven and earth that can help Wu Ming recover from his injuries!

Thinking of this, Wu Ming decided without hesitation to seize this rare opportunity and immediately set off for the col.

Based on the information he received, Wu Ming immediately set out on the journey with his Shadow Mouse.

Along the way, he traveled at lightning speed, day and night, not daring to delay for even a moment.

After two days and two nights of speeding, Wu Ming finally arrived at his destination - a remote valley.

When he stepped into this area, a strong spiritual energy hit him in the face, which lifted his spirits.

However, what was even more eye-catching was that dozens of monks had gathered at the scene. They were gathered together, enthusiastically discussing how to open the cave.

Wu Ming's appearance immediately attracted the attention of the monks present. They all directed their spiritual consciousness towards him, trying to detect his origins and strength.

However, when the spiritual consciousness of these monks touched Wu Ming, they were surprised to find that they could not see through his cultivation!

This discovery made the dozens of monks present suddenly nervous. They looked at each other, secretly speculating about Wu Ming's identity and strength.

After all, the strength of someone who is invisible to so many cultivators should not be underestimated.

Among these twenty-odd monks, a white-haired old man slowly walked forward.

His steps seemed a little heavy, as if the vicissitudes of life had left deep marks on him.

When he was a few steps away from Wu Ming, he stopped and asked in a slightly stiff tone:

"I don't know what your name is, and what brings you here? This place has been occupied by us, so please leave."

It's not that these people are easy to talk to. They have already regarded this cave as theirs, and any monks who came later were directly expelled by them.

They did not expel Wu Ming because they could feel that the newcomer's cultivation was higher than theirs. This person's strength should be at least at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, so they parted ways with Wu Ming.

Wu Ming raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and replied:

"Oh? I heard there was a cave here in Lower Sun and Moon, so I came here to explore it. I don't know how this place became your private place?"

His voice was calm and gentle, yet it held a majesty that was impossible to ignore.

When the more than 20 cultivators in the field heard Wu Ming's words, they couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

They obviously did not expect Wu Ming to respond so directly, and he also questioned their behavior.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the field became a little tense, and everyone cast wary eyes on Wu Ming.

As for why he had to give a fake name, it was actually a decision Wu Ming made after careful consideration.

He did this entirely out of caution, after all, the environment he was in was full of unknowns and risks.

Not only that, even his current appearance is not his real appearance, but he has cleverly disguised himself as a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

This disguise made him inconspicuous in the crowd, thus reducing the possibility of being recognized.

Because Wu Ming was still not sure whether Liu Qingquan was still wandering around Wuding County. If he were to meet him unfortunately, given Wu Ming's current condition, he probably wouldn't have the slightest ability to resist.

The shadow rat, which had been squatting quietly on Wu Ming's shoulder, was already frightened when it saw so many monks.

It hid behind Wu Ming without hesitation, as if that was the safest place.

However, when Shadow Mouse noticed that there was no worry on Wu Ming's face, it seemed to be encouraged.

So, it slowly stood on Wu Ming's shoulder again and began to squeak continuously.
