The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

The Blood-Shining Divine Light is not only a secret method of attack, but its function can be said to be a panacea.

Moreover, it can also be used to improve the quality of golden elixir when it is formed, which is the true teaching of Blood Sea Sect.

However, even if one becomes a true disciple and obtains the secret technique, it is not something that ordinary people can master.

The identity of this monk is indeed not simple. He was sent by the sect to be the leader in this mission, and he is also responsible for supervising whether there are any rebellious disciples.

These things were naturally not made public, and the other disciples did not know about them. They just wondered why a true disciple was so poor that he would participate in such a mission.

It was precisely because of his identity and special mission that he would not have been able to gather the other four people to work together.

You must know that other disciples cannot contact other disciples easily, unless they are familiar with each other and have a communication talisman.

Moreover, he was very confident in his own strength, but finding someone to use this secret method was actually part of his plan.

The arrogant people in the sect are long gone, and none of the people who have struggled out of the Demon Sect are simple.

As for his strength and status, he is obviously above the other four, so why doesn't he come here and take the Five Elements Spirit Fruit for himself?

That’s because there is another group of people on their way to look for Chen Hao, and the monk wants to use the four people to attract firepower when the time comes.

The four people were thinking hard, and they all thought that because no one listened to his call just now, the monk was deliberately showing off and suppressing the four people.

Otherwise, the mana consumed by this secret method cannot be easily released after the foundation is fully established.

Although the monk was releasing the secret technique, he was also secretly observing the expressions of the four people, and the plan in his mind was completed.

He was now arrogantly revealing his trump card in advance, deliberately creating the appearance that he was out. Combined with the mana he was consuming now, the four of them must have thought that he had consumed a lot.

At this moment, one's vigilance against him must have decreased, but one still needs to be on guard.

This was the balance point he was looking for. Otherwise, once the Five Elements Spirit Fruit was found, he would be the first one the four people would attack.

As the divine light swept across again and again, the blood in front of the monk's eyes finally reacted.

When he cast another spell and was ready to look for clues through blood.

The blood that was connected to the magic formula did not move at all. The meaning of this was self-evident.

The owner of this blood is dead!

Or is Chen Hao really dead?

This is not good news. Now the clues are completely cut off.

The only clues at the scene were a scratch and a pool of blood, and the smell of anything had almost disappeared due to the passage of time.

They could only guess that the owner of the blood had encountered a monster and was killed by it. But even if the breath was Chen Hao's, they still didn't think the blood was Chen Hao's. They couldn't believe that Chen Hao would die at the hands of a monster.

At this time, the gentle man stood up slowly, pointed at the scratches on the ground and said, "Why don't we use the monster as a clue to search, what do you think?"

"Based on the remaining aura, this monster is only at the second level of perfection at most. Even if it is Chen Hao who died, its storage bag is useless to a monster with low intelligence, so it must be preserved intact."

Naturally, the others had already thought of this, but if it was really Chen Hao who died, how would they deal with the monster?

Seeing that the atmosphere remained the same, the man said, "Why don't we split into two groups and search for traces of monsters around us, and then notify the other group if we find anything?"

But what if one of the groups really makes a discovery and doesn’t inform the others and deals with the monster on their own, or uses some means to get the storage bag, what will happen to that group?

The four of them thought carefully.

Seeing that no one answered, the gentle man finally shut up this time.

People in the evil world are like this, they are suspicious all day long and it is extremely difficult to cooperate with others.

Even if a cooperation is reached, the process will definitely not go smoothly.

What's more, the five of them have similar cultivation levels.

Seeing that this was not a solution, everyone discussed it again and finally reached a consensus.

The investigation was conducted individually, with each person holding a locator and swearing a vow that if any abnormality was found, the other four people would be notified.

This is also because it is difficult for one person to kill a monster of the same level silently when alone, so as to avoid being secretly intercepted by others.

It’s also because everyone doesn’t trust each other.

After all, they didn't even make a vow not to attack each other before harvesting the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit, and no one mentioned it.

Everyone present knew exactly what everyone was thinking.

Just like that, everyone scattered and searched for clues.

……

On the other side, not far from Jingui Lake, a team of monks were also rushing here.

The leader was actually a Jindan cultivator with a crude appearance. He was wearing a robe printed with the Bagua diagram and had an extraordinary temperament.

He was riding a second-order perfect golden-feathered eagle and was accompanied by seven perfect foundation-building cultivators, which made him look quite impressive.

The Jindan cultivator was always observing an eight-diagram compass in his hand.

The needle on the compass, which was condensed with magic power, kept vibrating and appeared extremely unstable.

But the Jindan cultivator didn't care at all and accurately estimated the direction.

But he still looked sad.

He came here at this moment for the sake of his younger disciples.

A good friend of his sent one of his descendants to buy a Five Elements Spirit Fruit that was revealed by the Beastmaster Sect at the auction, just because he was about to start making a furnace of elixirs.

As a result, he was robbed and killed, and the monks who followed him were also killed.

There were almost no clues left at the scene.

That's when he asked his old friend who knew astrology to help him find the murderer.

Originally he didn't want to come out. After all, the art of divination was against the harmony of nature. This kind of orthodox divination method would harm his own luck and lifespan.

But he thought that he didn’t have many years left to live, and that the younger generations were not up to par, and none of them would become successful.

The friend also promised that after the task was completed, the Five Elements Spirit Fruit would belong to him, and he would also give him a longevity pill as long as he could kill the murderer.

Only then did he agree to his friend's request.

These seven people were his incompetent disciples, but they also had the talent to inherit his astrology.

Bringing them out is the final test.

Whoever can predict the murderer's final location and kill the cultivator will get the Five Elements Spirit Fruit.

Didn't get any clues though.

However, relying on the concerted divination of their disciples, they also followed the compass all the way to this place.

However, there were some traces left by some recent monks along the way, and it seemed that someone was chasing the robber monk just like them.

Being able to reach the Golden Core level of cultivation, he naturally didn't believe in such a coincidence of just passing by.

He just casually divined and felt relieved only after he got the hexagram that his life would not be in danger on this trip.

As the target got closer, the guidance of the compass yesterday became increasingly unstable, so he took action himself.

After a day of manipulation, he guessed that the robbery cultivator had either used a treasure that concealed the secrets of heaven, or had been overtaken by someone else.

Thinking of the traces on the road, he immediately had a guess.

He immediately asked his disciples to take out a leftover monster bone that they had picked up on the road and some burnt charcoal.

He immediately started to make incantations and deduce the meaning of these items.

After just a moment, the compass finally responded. The needles condensed by magic power suddenly turned into five needles, pointing in the same direction.

Looking at the situation in front of him, the Jindan cultivator simply ordered to continue following the compass and closed his eyes to rest.
