The Holy Emperor picked up the spiritual spring seed on the table again, took it in his hand and looked at it over and over for a moment, then raised his hand slightly, let this thing fly into the hands of Baili Ran Mountain in the air, and said, "Baili Aiqing, you can also take a look." ”

Baili Ranshan took it with both hands, stood aside, carefully and silently observed the seed of the spiritual spring, and soon entered a state of selflessness.

The Holy Emperor said to Ji Li again: "At this time, you must have a lot of questions and confusion in your heart. ”

Ji Li nodded.

The Holy Emperor smiled: "Don't worry, I'll tell you later." ”

The Holy Emperor said that there are about four sources of spiritual power or aura in this world:

First, it is the aura that exists between heaven and earth, which is self-generated with heaven and earth, cannot be seen, cannot be touched, is faintly scattered, without a trace, and seems to be inexhaustible forever, but the cultivator can perceive this aura and can induce qi into the body through exercises;

Second, there are several spiritual veins in the continent and the four seas, which can be traced, and the spiritual stones that can be regularly collected and excavated around the spiritual veins;

Third, there are several special spiritual plants in this world, which can absorb the essence of heaven and earth and exude a relatively rich spiritual energy in a small area, but these spiritual plants are relatively rare and not easy to plant, so they are not popular;

Fourth, it is the most rare, it is a rare spiritual treasure compressed and condensed by a large number of "dense spiritual power" at the time of the universe and the beginning of the unbalanced energy, which is the legendary innate creation of the spiritual treasure, if you can get this kind of spiritual treasure, you can use it with a little refining, and you can draw a steady stream of spiritual power from it, which can be absorbed for several years, and can be absorbed for hundreds of thousands of years.

Feng Yiluan said thoughtfully: "This fourth type is actually a large spirit stone, or a spirit stone that has condensed countless times the spiritual energy, right?"

The Saint Emperor nodded: "It can be understood in this way. But as far as I know, there has never been such an innate spirit treasure on this Long River Continent so far, and I only heard that there have been golden immortals who have obtained such spirit treasures in the otherworldly space. ”

The Holy Emperor turned to look at Ji Li and said, "Therefore, when you described the Spiritual Spring Seed to me that day, I was very curious and wanted to know what this Spiritual Spring Seed was...... When I took a look at it today, I knew that this thing was really the work of a refining immortal master back then, but I don't know how this thing fell from the immortal world to the lower realm, and then fell into the hands of your sect. ”

Ji Li said: "I don't know how this thing fell into this gate, I think, probably by the predecessors of this gate to ascend to immortals in the fairy world, and then gave it to the junior head of the lower world." ”

The Holy Emperor said, "It's possible. ”

Ji Li said: "However, this spiritual spring seed has been in this sect for many years, and it has always provided spiritual energy to the disciples of this sect, why does the saint say that this thing is a half-finished product that has been tried?"

The Holy Emperor smiled slightly: "Let me ask you, if you only talk about cultivation itself, since the founding of your sect, in the past ten thousand years, has there ever been a genius who has been born out of thin air?"

Ji Li said, "This ...... It seems that there has never been, but thousands of years ago, there were many predecessors in this sect who rose to immortality, and there were several ancestors and uncles who were quite talented and could create their own swordsmanship and exercises. "The implication of Ji Li's words is still condemning the Holy Emperor, which means that everyone was able to ascend to immortal status thousands of years ago, and in the past thousand years of your reign, you have not even had a fellow disciple who has ascended, which is very excessive!

I don't know if the Holy Emperor heard the meaning of Qi Li's words, he only shook his head and said, "I said it, it's only about cultivation itself. As he spoke, the Saint Emperor paused for a moment before he added, "It seems that you probably haven't understood what exactly I mean by the Heavenly Genius. ”

Ji Li thought for a moment and said, "That sect may not have had such a genius before. Could it be that the Holy Lord wants to say that this is related to the Spiritual Spring Seed?"

The Holy Emperor nodded: "The seed of this spiritual spring that I said is a semi-finished product, or even a failed inferior semi-finished product, because the spiritual energy transformed by this thing is not pure enough, and it is different from the natural spiritual energy between heaven and earth. ”

Ji Li was surprised: "This sect does have this problem! I have heard the master and the head of the sect discuss the problem of breath disorder and damage to the foundation more than once, but all the predecessors and ancestors of the sect have always thought that this is a problem with the exercises themselves, or rather, they think that this is normal, because the exercises of other sects will always have more or less defects of one kind or another......

The Holy Emperor said: "That's right, there is no perfect practice in the world, so you need to choose and match, and try to avoid defects, but your sect has a flaw from the source of aura, so although your sect has a magic weapon that sounds enough to make other sects blush, it has always developed tepidly, and it is difficult to produce a real grandmaster-level monk." Even before I took charge of this world, your sect was not a very powerful sect, and among all the sects in the entire continent, your sect couldn't even rank in the top ten and top twenty, right?"

Ji Li lowered his head slightly, and after thinking carefully, he said, "The Holy One is right, it's like this. ”

Feng Yiluan asked, "Is there also a breath impurity in the body?"

The Holy Emperor looked at Ji Li: "He has not been practicing in the Retreat Abyss Sect for a long time, and in the past seven or eight years, he has been wandering outside most of the time, which is a good thing, and later he has gained a lot of skills in the inheritance of the War King, and he has cultivated in the secret realm here, so he is less affected by the Retreat Abyss Sect's spiritual spring seed." ”

Feng Yiluan said: "Uncle, you know everything about the experience of separation, it's too much, right?"

The Saint Emperor smiled meaningfully, "This is a must. ”

Feng Yiluan: "......"

The Holy Emperor said again: "It's a pity, the Retreat Yuan Sect must have had a talented genius, but it was destroyed by this so-called magic weapon of the Zhen Sect. ”

Ji Li asked: "In that case, this spiritual spring seed...... The Holy Lord doesn't plan to use this thing to provide spiritual power to the Forbidden Sky Circle?"

The Holy Emperor said: "No, it can be used, because the forbidden space magic circle is just a magic circle, even a little impurity in the aura is fine, and besides, I have other ways to purify the aura transformed by this thing." ”

As he spoke, the Holy Emperor turned his head to look at Baili Burning Mountain: "Lord Baili, what can you see?"

Baili Ranshan said: "The minister has probably been able to reverse the refining method of this magic weapon. ”

The Holy Emperor smiled slightly, "Very good." Besides, do you see any flaws in this magic weapon?"

Baili Ranshan said: "The minister's eyes are clumsy, and he can only vaguely see one or two, and he also asks the saint to give advice." ”

The Holy Emperor stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go, go to the refining platform with me, I and Aiqing will talk in detail, and Luan'er will also come with me, and by the way, I can also teach you the art of refining!"

……

The Holy Emperor took Feng Yiluan and Baili Ran Mountain to his imperial refining platform, and ordered someone to arrange for Ji Li and Mo Ping to settle down in the palace.

……

More than ten days later, everyone was summoned to the Qu Chi of the Imperial Flower Circle in the Imperial Palace, including Ji Li, Mo Pingyi, Lan Zhi Fairy, and even Yan Rui also came.

In the pavilion next to the qu pond, Ji Li looked at the thirteen almost identical spiritual spring seeds placed on the stone table, and was stunned on the spot.

What's the situation?

Feng Yiluan smiled at Qi Li and said: "Among these thirteen, twelve of them are imitations, you can guess which one is the spiritual spring seed of the Retreat Abyss Sect?"
