Chapter 266: The path of cultivation is full of calamities

In the next few days, Ruoshui went to Mingjue Ridge Xizhou Mountain again, transplanted the dozen or so fairy grasses that could produce Renling fruit into the Yunju Cave, and returned to Kongkong Island to extort some rare ornaments and fairy grass and strange flowers from the master Lao Shenjun, Lao Lu and Senior Brother Huiyangzi, plus some things he had obtained before, and rearranged the entire cave mansion, and by the way, he also touched the door of the cave mansion, but he didn't expect him to make some new discoveries.

The first discovery is the stone pier outside the cave and the small lakes and pine trees on its left and right. There are thousands of holes and hundreds of eyes on the stone pillar, and countless clouds and mist are absorbed in it, as long as the water practice is urged, it can gush out boundless mist, completely hiding the entire cave in the sea of clouds. The source of the small lake water is the dehydrated ice spring drawn by the mountain peak from the clouds and mist, extremely cold and clear, whether it is used for alchemy or pure sword is a first-class good color, the few white lotus in the lake, even if it is not as good as the Buddha lotus in the Three Ancestors Temple and the thousand-year-old snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, the gap is not very large, in addition to being used to refine magic weapons, it is also a good medicinal material for combining yin and yang, and regulating dragons and tigers.

As for the pine, the tree is thousands of years old, and the branches are iron, and the sword is difficult to hurt, and it is estimated that the old man of Bisong did not know where to dig it and plant it here. Although it did not give birth to spiritual wisdom and became a number of essences, after thousands of years of spiritual energy washing, the pine nuts that grew on the tree were ready-made qi replenishing pills without refining, and they could also temporarily increase the maximum value of mana by fifty points, and the effect was as long as a day, and the number was as many as thousands, enough for Ruoshui to be used for a long time.

The second discovery is the vines and a pair of jade rings outside the cave door, Ruoshui also discovered by accident, it turns out that these two things are powerful magic weapons, which can be removed and used. This vine is a sixth-order defensive magic weapon Bihuanluo net, which can emit a colorful light shield to protect the whole body, and can rebound the attacks received, how powerful the attack is, how great the power of the counterattack is, although the magic weapon defense will be doubled when the rebound attack, but it can definitely be called a strange treasure. The double jade ring is a sixth-order magic weapon called the Cold Sky Double Ring, which is made of ancient cold jade, which can send two bone-chilling lights, the ice sea and frozen mountains, and the two spells of Yimu and Binghuo, which are quite powerful. Ruoshui hesitated for a long time, but still dismantled these two things, anyway, the person who can break through the Five Elements Great Array in one breath is definitely not something that can be blocked by two sixth-order magic weapons, and the magic weapons in his magic weapon bag are not rich enough to put two sixth-order superlative products outside the door as decorations, instead of using them to set up, Ruoshui feels that it is better to put them into his bag and improve some of his own strength.

The third discovery was that the colored light and white cranes on the peaks outside the cave were originally fake, and they were simulated from a kind of immortal law. However, this is not a trick just to look good, but an extremely powerful offensive forbidden method. These swirling colored lights contain the two poles of the aurora that specifically hurt the cultivator's original god, and the white crane can be turned into an immeasurable Yimu divine needle, so this forbidden method is called the two-pole aurora, the crane divine needle Dafa, which can be arbitrarily powerful according to the mind of the master in the cave, and no matter how powerful the master is not careful, it is very likely to be injured by this forbidden method under negligence.

In the end, Ruoshui also found that there were several places on the four walls of the hall that occasionally emitted treasure light, and it disappeared in a flash, making it extremely difficult to find a trace. According to Ruoshui's experience and the intensity of those treasure lights, Ruoshui estimates that these should be some of the better magic weapons deliberately collected by the previous owner, even if they are not as good as the Taixiao Qingyi One Qi Tower, I believe it will not be too different. It's just that no matter how he tried to search, he almost didn't cut the wall directly with the flying sword, and he still didn't find any shadow of the magic weapon, so he had to keep it in his heart, and temporarily throw it aside like the Taixiao Qingyi One Qi Tower in Dingzhong, and wait for the level strength to improve in the future, and then try to see if there is a legendary fate with these treasures.

After so many days of busy work around this content-rich cave, Ruoshui's thoughts of traveling to southern Xinjiang have faded, anyway, you can level up near Huangshan, and the NPCs who come and go to this famous mountain are not as many as those in southern Xinjiang, but they are as many as carp crossing the river, and you don't need to go so far to the south to play - of course, if you have time in the future, you can also find some friends to travel together. In short, what Ruoshui is most concerned about now is actually how to improve his level in the future for a period of time, and then think about how to survive the second heavenly tribulation.

In the current avenue world, the vast majority of players have practiced to level 60 or above, and the so-called masters of the post-70 and post-80 generations are the same as the crowd of people who buy tickets at the train station during the Spring Festival, although Ruoshui has a fast leveling speed and good luck, but after all, people are not enough Some leveling madmen are diligent, and many players with similar strength to him have recently practiced to level 90 or above, and there are definitely not a few people who are more than 100 levels. A few days ago, he also sent a message saying that his cheap master Gu Jianxian's tasks were one after another, and after completing them, not only did he have a lot of rewards for skills and magic weapons, but he also had a lot of good deeds, plus his leveling speed was super fast, this kid has now begun to prepare seventh-order magic weapons and flying swords, and he is ready to wait for the level to reach in a few days, and he will challenge the one hundred and twenty-level mark, and see if he can become the first person among the Dao players to survive the second heavenly tribulation.

In addition to that, these people who want to fly, wash and sleep are also faintly revealing this meaning when they contact Ruoshui, which really stimulates Shuishui's classmates, you know, a few days ago, his level was still ahead of the vast majority of super masters, but I didn't expect to be busy with tasks recently, seize the cave mansion, and after slacking off and leveling, he was suddenly driven by these crazy people. So after getting the Yunju Cave and having a stable nest, Ruoshui is ready to retreat and practice again and concentrate on leveling, after all, if you talk about equipment, he now has two seventh-order flying swords, two seventh-order magic weapons, a number of sixth-order magic weapons, countless cannon fodder magic weapons, and the elixir is also sufficient, and the material preparation can be said to be perfect, and he is also burdened with the exquisite spells of the Zhenshan level such as the innate Five Elements Nine Turns Jade Shu Wonderful Method, the Great Five Elements Biochemical Xuanwei True Method, etc., compared to Lao Wu, Xiangfei and others, who have worked hard to touch the seventh-order magic weapon, It can be said that it has taken the lead.

What's more, if Shui still has a super advantage over these people, it is the cave he occupies now. As the well-deserved owner of the Yunju Cave, Ruoshui can choose to spend the Tribulation in the Cave, compared to the average player who can find a random place to cross the Tribulation, he can enjoy at least three additional benefits in his own Cave Mansion.

The first advantage is that you can try not to be harassed by others when you cross the catastrophe, after all, few people will have the spare strength to deal with the malicious harassment of other players during the catastrophe, so most people will choose a place that no one knows, more secluded and safe, or find the most reassuring friend to protect the law. However, what safer place in the world is than a private cave like Yunju Cave? Not to mention whether anyone can find the hidden and abnormal Yunju Cave, even if someone can find it, and it happens to have an enmity with Ruoshui, he went to Yunju Cave to make trouble when he just started the robbery, and it is impossible to break through the outer cave protection formation before Ruoshui's robbery succeeds or fails, so if Ruoshui crosses the robbery in his own cave, it is really safe, and there is no need to worry about outsiders attacking him.

The second advantage is that the powerful cave protection formation will correspondingly weaken the power of many heavenly tribulations during the tribulation, of course, this does not mean that the formation in the cave mansion can be directly used to resist the heavenly tribulation, but takes the path of saving the country with a curve. In fact, the clouds that send out the Heavenly Tribulation are all temporarily condensed by the system boss according to the player's state, even if the player hides in his own cave, the power to form these clouds can ignore the guardian formation of the cave mansion, and directly pass through the space to chase and kill the person who caused the Heavenly Tribulation. But after all, the aura in any cave is in the hands of its master, although these clouds can pass through the space and form in the space inside the cave without being hindered by the formation, they are bound to pay some price. Of course, this kind of weakening will not be very large, and it may not be as great as the impact that can be caused by a Yin Thunder when the clouds of the Tribulation are condensed, but for the extremely powerful and terrifying Second Tribulation, it can reduce the power a little bit, which means that the chances of survival of the Tribulation are greater, after all, the Second Tribulation is not a joke, compared to the little Kath of the First Tribulation, there are undoubtedly many more changes, and the lethality is much greater.

As for the third benefit of crossing the catastrophe in his own cave, this benefit is related to the person who crossed the catastrophe himself. Since generally speaking, the caves are opened up in the immortal mountain treasure land with abundant aura, and the geographical conditions are extremely superior, so when you are in the cave, the recovery speed of the player's life and mana, as well as the offensive and defensive abilities, have a certain bonus, and the stronger the player's own innate conditions, the higher the level of the cave, the higher the degree of bonus. This kind of recovery ability and enhancement of offensive and defensive capabilities is not too big, it seems to be a chicken rib at all in normal times, but it is completely different when crossing the tribulation, when it is stalemate with the power of the heavenly tribulation, it can recover a little more mana or life, or the ability to attack and defend is a little stronger, maybe it will determine the different circumstances of the life and death of the person who crosses the tribulation.

Why do the guilds in the avenue want to get a superb cave mansion as a station? One of the most important reasons for this kind of aura in the cave is the addition of ability. Although Ruoshui, the Origin Peak Cloud Residence Cave, is only a single cave, the level of the cave is quite high, and Ruoshui's own ability is much stronger than that of players of the same level, so if he crosses the tribulation in his own cave, he can get a good ability bonus, and it will be self-evident to help resist the second heavenly tribulation.

With these three benefits, coupled with its own super fierce strength, although the danger of the second Heavenly Tribulation is much higher than that of the first Heavenly Tribulation, Ruoshui still has considerable confidence that he can resist it. As for whether you can grab the head of the old and their gang of fierce people to survive the second tribulation, it is not so important, as long as you don't lag behind them too much, after all, it is not easy to practice to more than a hundred levels, you must be cautious and not make mistakes, you must know that once the second tribulation fails, you will be beaten back to level 60 and start again, if the evaluation is too low during the tribulation, it will even be beaten back to the first level, this is not a joke, after experiencing the high-level strong ability, Ruoshui does not want to start again.

So from this day on, Ruoshui began to settle down, and started a new round of monster farming operations centered on Shixin Peak, where the Yunju Cave is located. Because he has a lot of large-scale attack spells, his mana and recovery ability are super strong, if this kid is determined, the leveling speed is definitely second to none in the avenue, if it weren't for the fact that there are too many good deeds required to upgrade his most important skills, even if he always fishes for three days and dries his nets for two days when he practices on weekdays, the level will not fall too far behind other masters. At this time, as soon as he leveled up with peace of mind, he immediately reflected the advantages of large-scale spell leveling, plus it was a leapfrog to kill monsters, and the one hundred and twenty or thirty level of strange theories and theories were done, and the good deeds suddenly rose like rockets flying into the sky, if those players who could only use flying swords to slash monsters and monsters saw it, they would definitely faint with jealousy more than one hundred and twenty times.

If it weren't for some changes in the middle of leveling, it is estimated that Ruoshui would only take a week or two at most, and the level would be close to level one hundred and twenty. Note that it is approaching rather than reaching, just like when a tribulation occurs, everyone will stop for a period of time at level fifty-nine to consolidate their strength and continue to improve their skill level, after reaching the level of one hundred and nineteen of the second tribulation, everyone will usually stop the pace of rapidly improving the level, and instead start to accumulate magic weapons, practice operations, and point the skill level to the highest limit as much as possible, preparing for the tribulation. Therefore, if you just raise the level of the character, from more than one hundred to one hundred and twenty, it is really not a very long distance.

On the night of the accident, Ruoshui had just returned from the training of Leshui Peak in the seventy-two peaks, and saw that it was getting late and the stars were shining, so he climbed to the stargazing platform and began the routine cultivation that had only recently begun to form a habit—condensing the starlight. It turns out that the skill of Da Zhengang Xingdou Han learned by Ruoshui is very special, and the early promotion only needs to consume a lot of good deeds, and it can condense the seventh-order Starlight Sword before the hundred levels, but when the level of this skill exceeds one hundred levels, and after successfully condensing the seventh-order flying sword, and then continue to improve the skill level, it can only simply improve the power of the flying sword. Only when the flying sword is completely refined by the star power is extremely pure, and the Da Zhengang Star Dou Han level also meets the corresponding requirements, the grade of the Star Dou Han Sword can be improved, compared to the previous time when it was promoted from the first order to the seventh order, I don't know how many times more difficult.

However, this kind of upgrading process is easier than collecting materials, upgrading a physical flying sword, or directly refining an eighth-order or ninth-order flying sword, and there is no possibility of failure, and there is no need for any valuable materials, all that is needed is water grinding work night after night. If you really want to talk about it, it can be said that this skill of condensing the Starlight Sword is actually different from the normal refining methods of various sects and factions, and they are on par.

In the past, Ruoshui had been busy with various affairs, and the troublesome matter of attracting stars from the sky required that it must be at night when there were stars, and there were certain restrictions on the length of time, so it was delayed. Now that he had a stable place to live, and there happened to be a stargazing platform in the cave, he could cultivate directly without him having to run back to the stargazing platform in the Samadhi Palace, so he made up his mind to devote two hours every night to condensing the Starlight Pure Sword. Although Xingdou Han wants to be promoted to the eighth order, he must have a Da Zhengang Xingdou Han skill level of more than one hundred and eighty levels, and it seems that he will have to wait for a long time, but Ruoshui thinks that it is better to prepare earlier, otherwise if the skill level is enough in the future, but the level of Xingdou Han's refinement is not enough, wouldn't he be depressed to death at that time?

It is very boring to condense star power on the stargazing platform, because of the system, Ruoshui does not have to repeat the tedious operations when condensing and refining by himself, but it is indeed very difficult for a person to sit upright on the high-altitude gimbal for two hours. Although the scenery around the gimbal is changeable, and the starry sky at night is bright and extraordinary, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, if you look at it for a long time, it will be a little aesthetically tired, right? Therefore, when Ruoshui sat on the cloud platform and saw the dark clouds shrouded near the bright top of the Tianhai Bright Peak of Huangshan Mountain, and countless lightnings of different colors were slashing towards a valley under the peak one after another, it was inevitable that he would be very curious, although the time for practicing the Fa was not yet two hours, he couldn't help but want to go over and see what was going on.

Guangming Peak is one of the three main peaks of Yellow Mountain, only slightly inferior to Lotus Peak, Alchemy, Tiandu, Lotus, Yuping, Aoyu Peaks are all under it, most of the monsters on the mountain are about one hundred and eighty or ninety level, if the water does not have the courage to provoke. However, a few days ago, when he was looking for Yunju Cave, he relied on Huitu Dun to explore the vicinity, and he still had some impressions of the valley that was struck by lightning.

Ruoshui remembered that when he passed through that valley, he once saw the seven-colored neon in the valley rising through the sky, and there was a white mist rising, and there was a faint shimmering light in the mist, but it was not a treasure light, but it seemed to be some kind of monster or something like that was exercising Neidan. He originally had the intention to go in and explore, but as soon as he arrived at the valley mouth, he found that there was a demon light shrouded nearby, and with Ruoshui's eyes, he immediately recognized that this should be a kind of demon array that can only be cast by a big monster with a very high cultivation, and the power is much more powerful than the various formations he knows, and he knows that this must be a powerful NPC monster hiding here, so he doesn't dare to make a second entry, otherwise he will overturn it, and he will be unlucky after all.

Just looking at today's scene, it seems that this big monster is crossing the tribulation, but I don't know if this is the three heavenly tribulations of the one hundred and eighty level, or the forty-nine tribulations that can only be enjoyed after avoiding the three calamities in the legend. In short, whether it is the three heavenly tribulations or the four or nine tribulations, they are far more powerful than the two heavenly tribulations that Ruoshui is about to face, I wonder if the big monsters in this valley can successfully escape this catastrophe?
