Looking at the boulder sliding in the direction of Death Spirit Abyss, Little Fatty dropped the sword in panic, opened his arms and wanted to run over. At this moment, he wanted to hug it immediately.

However, running "Yuqing Sword Art" exerted the sequelae of "Dragon Slayer Art", causing him to completely lose strength. He was supported by Zhang Xiaofan before he could barely stand. He could only watch the boulder slide in the direction of Death Spirit Abyss.

"Ah! Ah! My baby!" Little Fatty shouted in distress.

At the moment when everyone was watching the boulder suddenly accelerate and slide backwards and fall into the dark abyss, Yin Orb in Zhang Xiaofan's arms suddenly shot out a black shadow. Everyone squinted their eyes to identify it, only to see a thick black tail curling around the broken boulder and pulling it back.

With a "bang" sound, the boulder fell heavily to the ground.

"Huh!" Everyone looked at the huge boulder that fell in front of them and breathed a sigh of relief.

Black Water Mystic Snake is indented again Yin Orb, hiding the merit and fame.

Little Fatty happily hugged Yin Orb and tried to suck the boulder in, but failed.

"This boulder should be an object of the Sun! Yin Orb I guess it can't be collected!" He Dazhi touched his chin and thought, "Try your Yang Orb!"

Little Fatty raised Yang Orb with some uncertainty and waved at the boulder. After a bright light, the boulder instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.

"It works!" Little Fatty happily held Yang Orb and shouted!

Everyone gathered around and saw that inside the small bead, there was a piece of Stone engraved with the words Death Spirit Abyss. In the center of the bead, it glowed with golden orange light, adding some psychedelic colors to the Yang Orb.

"What a treasure! One can contain the most yin things in the world, and one can contain the most yang treasures in the world." He Dazhi nodded in envy, sincerely happy for his own Little Junior Brother!

"Now I'm starting to worry about those things that are both yin and yang! With Little Junior Brother's character, he can't even dig deep when he sees them!" Fifth Senior Brother joked, rubbing the head of Luo Yunji who was happy.

"Let's leave first!" Wu Dayi interrupted everyone's laughter. If they kept complaining, they might not be able to leave today.

Seven people and five ghosts easily passed through Blood-Sucking Bat's territory. Not long after they left the cave entrance, Little Gray chased after them on Big Yellow.

Speaking of which, the formation at the entrance of Big Bamboo Peak Back Mountain Secret Cave, the two little ones can completely remember the way in and out. If Little Fatty had not set up a new formation in Ancient Cave before, there would be no way to stop the two little ones from intruding.

Big Yellow also had a big fat rabbit in his mouth, which made Little Fatty happy. He hugged the dog's head and rubbed it wildly. Big Yellow struggled and ran away, carrying Little Gray and disappeared after a while.

Kongsang Mountain is always sparsely populated, and the group walked for a whole day without meeting anyone.

After traveling for a day, they still did not get out of the range of Kongsang Mountain. If they were just on their way, the magic weapon they found under Death Spirit Abyss could allow the group to leave the mountains quickly, but their trip was to find their own opportunities. Although they got a few magic weapons, they hoped to find a magic weapon that matched their own attributes or a spiritual object from heaven and earth.

Both Wu Dayi and Little Fatty already have spiritual treasures that match their own attributes, so they also want to get their own opportunities.

In the evening, the brothers and sisters ate food around the fire and talked freely, He Dazhi looking up at the stars.

"Kongsang Mountain is in the southeast of Azure Clouds. If we go north, it is the way back to the mountain. Therefore, we can only go in three directions: south, east and west. To the south is Mount Huqi where Ghost King Sect is; to the east is Changhe City, and further east is East Sea; to the west are Mount Zhugou and Mount Sumeru, where Tianyin Temple is." He Dazhi looked at the brothers and asked, "Which direction should we go tomorrow?".

"Let's go south! We still have time. Even if we can't find the spiritual objects for refining magic weapons, we can at least broaden our horizons. I don't want to go back so early. Let's be careful, avoid Mount Huqi, and try to avoid Ghost King Sect's area." Fifth Senior Brother looked around at the fellow apprentices and expressed his thoughts.

"I don't want to go back now. We just came down the mountain not long ago. As for where to go, I have no idea. Anywhere is fine!" Third Senior Brother also voted.

Others also expressed that they did not want to go back so early.

"Then let's go south." Wu Dayi finally made up his mind.

As for Zhang Xiaofan and Little Fatty, they were sitting on the side playing around at this time.

Little Fatty had already eaten and was playing with Yin Orb, and the Yang Orb was placed in Zhang Xiaofan's arms. There were several beads in the bowl at his feet, among which one purple and one gold were two Treasure Pearl found under Death Spirit Abyss, a pair of red eyeballs are Red-Eyed Wild Boar, and there is a purple-red bead. According to He Dazhi, these are the Demon Core of the Red-Eyed Wild Boar. If it can be preserved under the Spirit Fire of Zheng Dali, it is a good treasure.

Little Fatty was tired from playing and fell asleep early holding his beads. Zhang Xiaofan buried two lumps of dirt under the fire and fell asleep. The others chatted about what they had gained during these hours and fell asleep one after another until very late.

After deciding on the direction, the group of people headed south. However, the deserted mountains and ridges like Kongsang Mountain were uninhabited and densely wooded. Soon after they walked out, they were lucky enough to encounter a wilderness inn.

The owner of the inn, whose surname is He, is a middle-aged man in his early forties. He provides a place for travelers from all over the world to rest and drink tea, thereby earning some hard money.

Wu Dayi learned from the boss that there is a small town one day east of here, named Xiaochi Town. Many people go there every year. There is a Black Stone Cave to the north of Xiaochi Town, and there is a Full Moon Well in the woods in front of the cave. You can make wishes, and I heard it is very effective.

Wu Dayi returned to the group of brothers with a speechless expression.

"What's wrong?" Third Senior Brother saw that Wu Dayi's face was not very good, so he poured a cup of tea and asked.

"We are going in the wrong direction! This is the east side of Kongsang Mountain, and one day's journey eastward is a place called Xiaochi Town. I heard from the shopkeeper that there is a very effective Wishing Well there." Wu Dayi took a sip of tea and told the information he had found out.

"Is it very effective? Can any wish come true? Let's go there! I want to make a wish, and I want lots and lots of delicious food!" Little Fatty looked at Wu Dayi with shining eyes.

"I just know how to eat! Stay and go!" Sixth Senior Brother pushed the person away, "Then should we go over and have a look or should we change the route?"

"Go and have a look! Go and have a look!" Luo Yunji shouted loudly without giving up.

Seeing that Little Fatty insisted and that they had no place to go, a few people decided to go and have a look!

Little Fatty knew that they would continue to the east and jumped up and down happily.

"You are already a teenager, and you are still so childish!" Third Senior Brother looked at Little Fatty's happy face and said with a smile, his eyes full of doting.

"They are all pampered by us!" Sixth Senior Brother said with a smile.

"Our Big Bamboo Peak is just such a baby! And we watched him grow up! How could he be willing to scold him!" Wu Dayi shook his head, and laughed when he thought of Big Bamboo Peak's master, Shiniang, and his brothers doting on Little Junior Brother on a daily basis.

After the repairs were completed, everyone walked towards the treasure. Within half a day, they saw a small town. Beside the road at the entrance of the town, there was a stone tablet with the words "Xiaochi Town" engraved on it. I thought this was the right place.

The group of people walked in and heard the voices gradually getting louder. The ancient road ran straight through the small town. There were houses with eaves and some shops on the side of the road, but most of them were vendors setting up stalls directly on both sides of the road. They walked along the street and the sound of selling was endless.

Looking at the prosperous scene, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was not like being in the barren mountains and ridges, where they had to be on guard for danger at any time. When their spirits relaxed, the fireworks in the world at this time also had a different taste in their hearts. Everyone found a place to stay, washed themselves up, and early the next morning, under the urging of Little Fatty, the Imperial Treasure headed north.

Soon a few people came to a forest, but saw that the trees were tall and straight, with lush branches and leaves, blocking the morning light, but the forest was a little dark. As they walked, the surroundings were silent, and a gauze-like morning mist floated from the depths of the forest. The golden morning light reflected it, making it as mysterious as a secret realm.

Several people searched in the woods for a long time, but in the end it was the accompanying Yin Spirits who found the location of the ancient well first.

Everyone was looking forward to it. In the town, they learned from people's comments that this ancient well was quite effective.

Finally, under the leadership of Yin Spirits, they pushed aside a bush and revealed a well. The stones beside the well were old and covered with green moss, which seemed to be quite old.

Little Fatty After seeing the ancient well, he ran over, lay down on the edge of the well and looked in. Others slowly came to the edge of the ancient well.

"What did you see?" Sixth Senior Brother poked his head and looked in curiously, "There is nothing! This is just an ordinary well!"

"This is Wishing Well, what do you want to see?" Fifth Senior Brother rolled his eyes and said.

"I want lots and lots of delicious food!" Little Fatty leaned forward and shouted loudly towards Gujing.

"I hope to find a powerful magic weapon!" Sixth Senior Brother also shouted at the top of his lungs.

"I'll try too! I'll come! I'll come! Give way!" Third Senior Brother also squeezed past, pushed Sixth Senior Brother aside, and lay down by the well, "I hope to improve my cultivation and not embarrass our Big Bamboo Peak!"

"I'm coming! I'm coming!" Fifth Senior Brother didn't want to lag behind and pushed Third Senior Brother away and shouted towards the wellhead, "I want a magic weapon with fire attributes!"

"Fourth Senior Brother! Why don't you go over and make a wish?" Wu Dayi from behind looked at He Dazhi standing next to him and asked with a smile.

"Okay! I'll make a wish too!" He Dazhi smiled and squeezed past.

"I hope there are many, many books to read!"

"Tch! Fourth Senior Brother! Your wish is really bad!" Sixth Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Brother cheered together after hearing this.

"Second Senior Brother! Come on! You may be one!" Sixth Senior Brother waved to Wu Dayi and shouted.

Wu Dayi walked over with a smile. Several junior brothers turned aside slightly and moved away from the mouth of the well. Wu Dayi stood on the edge of the ancient well, looking at the mirror-like water surface in the ancient well and said slowly, "I hope to get a good ranking in the Seven Peaks competition in the future!"

"Wow! Second Senior Brother! You are so cunning! If you do this, your cultivation and magic weapons will be all gone!" Sixth Senior Brother looked at Wu Dayi in surprise, "I want to do it all over again!"

Du Bishu turned to the well and shouted loudly, "I want to rank higher than Second Senior Brother in the competition!"

"You're so good at cheating!" Fifth Senior Brother was unhappy, as if his wish was a bit unfulfilling, "I want to do it all over again!"

"Go away! Don't say you are better than me!" Sixth Senior Brother hugged the person and prevented him from coming near the well to make a wish.

Looking at the noisy junior brothers, Wu Dayi laughed, and saw Little Fatty holding Little Fatty's belt beside him, for fear that Zhang Xiaofan would accidentally fall into the well.

"Xiaofan! Make a wish too!"

"Me?" Zhang Xiaofan looked at Wu Dayi in surprise. He didn't seem to be dissatisfied with anything. He was very satisfied with everything now. So he didn't seem to have any wishes!

"Yes! Come and make a wish! Let us hear what you wish for!" Sixth Senior Brother still hugged Fifth Senior Brother and dragged him without letting go, laughing loudly at Zhang Xiaofan.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhang Xiaofan continued to pull on Little Fatty's belt without letting go. He leaned forward and looked at Water Mirror in the well and shouted, "I hope all the wishes of brothers and sisters can come true!"

After everyone heard this, they all fell silent. Sixth Senior Brother also let go of Fifth Senior Brother. Several senior brothers came to Zhang Xiaofan's side and rubbed his head.

"Idiot! When you make a wish, of course you have to make it for yourself!" Fifth Senior Brother looked at Xiaofan with an expression of "Why are you so stupid?" and said with a smile.

"But I have nothing to ask for! I have master, Shiniang, and senior sisters and brothers! And Little Junior Brother! I am very satisfied with everything now!" Zhang Xiaofan replied with a somewhat embarrassed smile.

"And..." Zhang Xiaofan lost his smile at this time, and his mood suddenly turned sad. He lowered his head and looked at himself reflected on the water under the ancient well, "If I make a wish to make everyone in Grass Temple Village come alive... this wish will not come true!"

Grass Temple Village is the eternal pain in Zhang Xiaofan's heart!

After hearing this, all the senior brothers sighed. Wu Dayi, who was approaching, reached out and patted his shoulder. They didn't know how to comfort this distressed junior brother!

"Brother, please make a promise for me! He said he would make a lot of delicious food for me to eat!" Little Fatty was the only one who was not in this sad mood, holding Xiaofan's hand and said happily.

"Just eat it! Go away!" After hearing this, Fifth Senior Brother and Sixth Senior Brother grabbed Little Fatty's arm, dragged him aside and bullied him while rubbing his head and face.

He Dazhi smiled and patted Zhang Xiaofan on the shoulder.

"You can't resurrect the dead! You have to be stronger. I won't tell you that I live for all those Grass Temple Village people who died. I just want you to know that we all regard you as a relative, and you are not alone now!"

Zhang Xiaofan After hearing this, he lowered his head and nodded heavily. No one could see his expression, but thinking about it, he must be sad! He encountered such a tragedy at such a young age.

Fortunately, Luo Yunji is always by my side, and Zhang Xiaofan doesn't have much time or free time to grieve.

When Big Bamboo Peak was there, he was either practicing, cooking, or being dragged around by Little Fatty all over the mountains and plains, chasing chickens and dogs, causing harm to all the mountains near Big Bamboo Peak.

Several senior brothers expressed their concern for Zhang Xiaofan one by one. Zhang Xiaofan was no longer sad and accompanied Little Fatty to the side to play. Wu Dayi and the others also felt in their hearts when they saw this He breathed a sigh of relief quietly, but his feeling of distress for Zhang Xiaofan was even stronger. Zhang Xiaofan's performance in Big Bamboo Peak over the years is indeed worthy of the care and love given to him by these senior brothers.

While everyone was laughing and joking, a figure appeared behind the bushes.
