Chapter 311: Heaven and Earth Cave
Looking down at the stone table that had turned into powder, Lin Dong slowly walked into the lobby, and after explaining a few words to Ma Chun about the new prefect, he returned to the backyard.
In the courtyard, Yun Lan and the three of them were chatting, and when they saw Lin Dong coming back, Mo Jianchen stood up without hesitation, and with a swing of his right palm, an extra spirit sword appeared in his palm.
"Senior brother-in-law, come again!"
Mo Jianchen's words were righteous, and he was beaten for more than a month, and he didn't care much about being beaten a few more times.
"Not available!" Lin Dong said leisurely: "I have something to go out of!" ”
"Something to go out? How long will it take? "Mo Jianchen was still a little anxious than Yun Lan, the medicinal effect of the Golden Armor Snake Inner Pill had bottomed out, but even so, another half a month would be enough to break through the seventh level of the Mind Stage and reach the eighth level of the Heart Stage.
The dawn of victory is just around the corner, why is it suddenly going to go far away?
Wouldn't this more than a month of beating be equivalent to being beaten in vain?
"I don't know, it's a month or two fast, and three or five months slow." Lin Dong said with a smile.
Mo Jianchen's face fell, and he said a little: "Senior brother-in-law, could it be that you are deliberately avoiding me?" In more than half a month, I will be in the eightfold period. ”
"The eightfold period of the heart, I will also knock you down, don't believe it, wait for me to come back." Lin Dong said disdainfully: "Just you, you are not qualified enough for me to hide." ”
"That's what you said!" Mo Jianchen gritted his teeth, good things are grinding, and it doesn't hurt to wait a few more months.
Yun Lan got up and asked, "Don't you plan to take me as a guard?" ”
Lin Dong nodded, his chin snuggling towards Old Man Ding's room.
Yun Lan understood that Lin Dong must have some way to improve his strength, although he couldn't figure out what this method was, he knew that he would definitely not be able to identify with himself, otherwise he would not bring himself.
After hesitating for a moment, Yun Lan nodded slowly: "Don't be too reluctant." ”
Lin Dong smiled and nodded, in order to say goodbye to singleness as soon as possible, for him, nothing was reluctant.
After chatting with the three of them for a few words, Lin Dong immediately came to the door of Old Man Ding's room and knocked lightly a few times.
"The door is not closed......" The casual voice sounded inside, and the old man Ding, who was lying on the wooden bed with his legs crossed, stared at Lin Dong who pushed the door in with his hazy sleepy eyes.
"Old man, are you interested in going out to play?" Lin Dong smiled and said: "The fallen leaves are colorful, the wine and food are what a pleasant thing." ”
"Not interested!" Old man Ding said without thinking.
Lin Dong didn't think it was a pestle, and continued: "Old man, the taste of the three-year red wine is okay, right?" ”
"It's okay, although it's not as good as a century-old gyokuro, but it's also a first-class wine." Old man Ding said leisurely.
"When I return, I will have one hundred and eighty altars prepared." Lin Dong said with a smile.
"Just waiting for your words!" Old man Ding flew up, came to Lin Dong, and asked, "How long are you going?" ”
"Between two months and five months." Lin Dong replied.
"There's no shortage of beautiful bars on the road?" Old man Ding asked.
"The first batch of three-year red wine is not much, so I can only bring a dozen jars over, and then come back, the three-year thyme tube is enough." Lin Dong said with a smile: "When I come back, the second batch of three-year red wine should have been released." ”
"Let's go! The old arms and legs should also be loosened and loosened. Old man Ding knocked on the back of his neck.
Lin Dong nodded and said, "Old man, wait a minute, I'll go and prepare the wine and food on the road." In addition, we are in a bit of a hurry along the way, and I am afraid that the old man needs to use two legs to hurry. ”
"It doesn't matter, as long as the cloud girl can keep up." Old man Ding said lightly.
"It's just the two of us this time." Lin Dong said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, the main thing is that I found a good place where I can speed up my cultivation, this place is not suitable for Yun Lan to go over, and I am afraid that she will worry, so I asked the old man to come out." ”
Old man Ding was relieved and waved his hand: "Bring more wine and food!" ”
"Okay, old man, wait a minute!"
Lin Dong immediately rushed to the kitchen in the front yard, and after loading a lot of good wine and food, he returned to the backyard.
"Old man!" Seeing the old man Ding go out, Yun Lan hurriedly said hello.
Behind him, Xue Qinghong and Mo Jianchen looked up and down a few times at the old man who hadn't seen him go out for more than a month, speculating on his identity.
Old man Ding yawned and said with a smile: "Yun Yatou help me look at the red wine sent over, don't let the guys sell it all." ”
Yun Lan nodded.
"Let's go!" With a wave of his hand, Old Man Ding took a jar of three-year thyme from Lin Dong's hand, and walked to the back door while drinking.
The two went out the back door, Lin Dong looked left and right, and after finding that there was no one, he couldn't help but look at Old Man Ding.
Holding the wine jar in one hand, Old Man Ding grabbed Lin Dong's shoulder with one hand, and after pouring a big mouthful, his body shook, and the two of them instantly turned into a breeze and quickly flashed.
In an instant, the two of them went out of the city gate. Along the way, on the noisy streets, no one could notice that someone had passed by.
All the way to Qingmei Mountain, if it is a fast horse, thinking of the foot of the mountain, it will take five or six days to travel at night. And carrying the altar of thyme in one hand, and Lin Dong in the other, the old man Ding, but it only took less than an hour to reach the destination.
The Xingli Sect is huge, and the Heaven and Earth Cave is an extremely private place in the Xingli Sect, if you change to an ordinary martial artist, you may not be able to find it for a lifetime. Even if it is Yun Lan, according to Lin Dong's estimate, it will take a day or two to say the least.
And the old man Ding, after learning that this heaven and earth cave was made of the Amazing Stone, his eyes were slightly closed, and his spiritual power slowly dispersed, and he opened his eyes in just a moment.
Grabbing Lin Dong and shooting out, outside a large mine cave in the back mountain of Xingli Sect, the speed was only a little slower, obviously encountering the obstacle of the spirit array.
Hurrying all the way, encountering formations, and going deeper and deeper in the nine-bend and eighteen-bend mining caves, avoiding the countless Xingli Sect disciples who were in charge of mining, finally, the two stopped outside a mine that looked like an abandoned mine.
"There's someone in there!" Old man Ding said lightly.
Lin Dong looked at the deep dark cave and asked, "How many?" ”
"A little girl!" Old man Ding explained.
Lin Dong was relieved, it should be You Qinxiang.
After thinking about it for a moment, Lin Dong decided: "Old man, according to your estimates, how long can you stay here?" ”
"As long as you can live that long, one hundred and eighty is young and easy." Old man Ding said lightly.
"So long? Could it be that the stronger the strength, the longer you can stay? Lin Dong was stunned and said, "Looking at it this way, doesn't it mean that the old man can also cultivate in it?" ”
"It's true that there is light with strength, it's just a shocking stone, and there is a lot of stock in it, but in my eyes, it's nothing." Old Man Ding said nonchalantly: "Similarly, with my strength, the help of these Amazing Stones in my cultivation is almost negligible. It's really not as good as the spirit array you have arranged in my room that can speed up cultivation. ”
"Then with my strength, how long can I support it?" Lin Dong asked.
"Half an hour at a time!" Old Man Ding explained: "As for how long you can stay at a time, it depends on your willpower, according to my estimate, you should be able to support an hour or so." ”
"What does the old man mean is that you can still cultivate intermittently?" Lin Dong said with a smile on his face.
"Yes, but the longer you stick to it, the better it will work." Old Man Ding explained: "The Amazing Stone is an ore that assists in cultivation, and like the elixir spiritual material, if it is raised to a certain level, it will almost lose its auxiliary effect. The content of the Thrilling Stone in it, if you can ensure that you have been cultivating in it, it should allow you to break through to the heart reversal stage in one breath. ”
"A heavy heart reversal?" Lin Dong's eyes widened, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a lot.
The six-fold mental period can be directly promoted to the first level of the mental reversal period? This effect is several times better than that of the blue fruit.
"The premise is that you can keep cultivating in it for three months without eating or drinking." Old Man Ding said lightly: "If you come out once in an hour, it can almost help you reach the strength of about the middle stage of the seventh stage of the Mind Period." ”
"The gap is so big?" Lin Dong's face was ugly.
"The longer you stay in it, the better the effect of your cultivation will be." Old man Ding said leisurely: "It's the same as taking the elixir spiritual material, the better the talent, the greater the effect." ”
Lin Dong pondered for a moment and asked, "If there is an old man who guards me with spiritual power, can you help me cultivate in it for three months in a row?" ”
"It's useless!" Old Man Ding shook his head and said, "At most, I can only help you recover your consciousness and regulate your spiritual power after you can't support it." If you want to help you block the power of the Thrilling Stone, you can only form a shield around you, which is equivalent to cutting off the effect of the Thrilling Stone. ”
Lin Dong was silent, gritted his teeth, and nodded: "Okay, let's go in." ”
"The little girl inside, stunned?" Old man Ding asked.
Lin Dong shook his head: "I should know, I just happened to find her for something." ”
"Whatever you want!" Old man Ding raised the wine jar in his hand, poured a few sips into his mouth, and then followed Lin Dong, drunkenly staggering into the hole.
As soon as I stepped into the mine, the smell of damp musty came to my face, and the dark ore was exposed on the cave wall. Lin Dong stepped forward step by step, and after a hundred meters, the black mine slowly brightened. The walls of the cave on both sides, between the pitch-black ore, faintly shimmered with a faint cyan light.
The further I went, the more and more cyan spots appeared, becoming more and more dense, and the damp musty smell gradually disappeared, replaced by an indescribable fragrance, which made people feel that the pores all over the body were gradually relaxed.
After a while, the cyan light spots completely covered the entire cave wall, and if you looked closely, it was actually a cyan stone wall that could not find any gaps.
"This is the Thrilling Stone?" Lin Dong couldn't help but look at the old man Ding behind him.
Old man Ding poured thyme and nodded to deal with Lin Dong.
"The Thrilling Stone is a sixth-order ore, and if it is collected as the main material, it can refine a sixth-order spiritual weapon. The advantage of refining the spiritual weapon with the Thrilling Stone is that it can reduce the consumption of spiritual power, and the disadvantage is that the hardness is not enough, once it encounters a spiritual weapon above the eighth order, it is easy to break, unlike other sixth-order spiritual weapons, when encountering a spiritual weapon above the eighth order, if the master's strength is comparable, one hundred and eighty moves down, at most it will only leave a few gaps. ”
"In addition, like the spirit stone, the Thriller Stone is still one of the very few ores that can be used to assist in cultivation, if there is a Thrilling Stone around, it can speed up the speed of spiritual power when cultivating, and it has the same effect as the spirit array you arranged in my room. It's just that the spirit array you arranged in my room has no limitations, and no matter how high or low the strength is, the effect is comparable, but this Thrilling Stone has a lot of limitations, compared to the spirit array you arranged, the only advantage is that the more the number, the stronger the effect. The content of the Thrilling Stone in this cave is probably difficult to find one or two in the entire Han Kingdom. ”
Lin Dong nodded, and not long after the two walked forward, an eye-catching figure came into view.
On a flat stone surface, You Qinxiang sat cross-legged and was in a state of concentration. If you ignore the painful look on her pretty face, she is wearing a pale red dress, which is particularly prominent and dazzling in this cyan world.
After a pause, Lin Dong hesitated, and a wishful stool quietly appeared in his right hand, and in the somewhat surprised gaze of Old Man Ding, it gradually transformed into a pitch-black spirit sword.
The cold light of the sword body flickered, showing that spiritual power was injected into it. Lin Dong opened his legs again, and the sound of landing was obviously a little stronger than before.
When she was less than ten meters, You Qinxiang obviously sensed that someone was coming, and suddenly opened her eyes, and after seeing Lin Dong, she rubbed her eyes, a little unable to believe the fact that she was seeing.
"Brother Lin, Brother Lin, is it really you?" Sure it wasn't an illusion, You Qinxiang couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
"It's me! Unexpectedly, you ...... in this Heaven and Earth Cave" Lin Dong replied lightly, the black spirit sword in his hand, and the cold light became brighter and brighter. In his eyes, there was also a flash of murder.
You Qinxiang was stunned, took a few steps back in disbelief, and exclaimed, "Brother Lin, what do you want to do?" ”
"I'm just curious, and I want to see the Heaven and Earth Cave you said." Lin Dong said with a grim face: "I didn't expect to meet you inside." ”
"You—you want to kill me?" You Qinxiang's face was like ashes, and her strength seemed to have been sucked away by someone, and she wanted to tell Lin Dong that she wouldn't mind that Lin Dong secretly came to Xingli Sect to find the Heaven and Earth Cave, but she couldn't say anything.
"Yes, there is this idea!" Lin Dong said coldly.
You Qinxiang wept silently, looking at Lin Dong's gaze, a little blank.
"Brother Lin wants to kill me, you can do it at any time. As long as you kill Qin Xiang, and then find a way to collect some Amazing Stones to form a wall at the end of the Heaven and Earth Cave, I believe that no one will be able to discover Brother Lin's innocence. Qin Xiang only hopes that Brother Lin will not try to occupy the Heaven and Earth Cave, with Brother Lin's strength...... It doesn't matter which side fails, it's an outcome I don't want to see. ”
"That's a good idea!"
The black spirit sword in Lin Dong's hand slowly raised, and walked towards You Qinxiang, who closed his eyes tightly, step by step. Behind him, Old Man Ding smacked the wine stains on his lips, and finally understood what was happening.
Seven, six, five...... Yu Qinxiang's heartbeat continued to accelerate, and her slender eyelashes trembled slightly. died like this, and at the hands of someone close to her heart, she was unwilling, but no matter how unwilling she was, there was nothing she could do.
Looking at You Qinxiang's fair and nervous face, Lin Dong was a little helpless, this was the only way he could think of.
Long pain is better than short pain, so that You Qinxiang feels that she is not a good person, and even resents herself, Lin Dong believes that in a short period of time, You Qinxiang may be very painful, but after a long time, she will definitely be able to let go.
The black spirit sword in his hand slowly changed, and by the time Lin Dong came to You Qinxiang's side, it had already turned into a swarthy iron rod.
Seeing the arteries on You Qinxiang's delicate neck, Lin Dong raised the iron rod in his hand, and when he was about to swing it down, You Qinxiang's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.
"What? Regretted it? Lin Dong was startled, and the iron rod in his hand quickly turned back into a spirit sword, and the sharp blade went straight to You Qinxiang's neck.
"Brother Lin lied to me?" You Qinxiang looked up at the spirit sword in Lin Dong's hand, his gaze moved to Lin Dong again, and he affirmed: "Brother Lin wants to stun Qinxiang!" ”
Lin Dong said coldly: "This idea is interesting! ”
You Qinxiang lowered her head, stared at her toes, and said a little shy and lonely: "Brother Lin's method is good, but Brother Lin doesn't know, the reason why Qin Xiang likes Brother Lin is because Qin Xiang is the most helpless, and it is Brother Lin's righteous and thin spirit that makes Qin Xiang see hope." For the sake of a person who has not known each other for a long time, how can this kind of person kill a person who likes him for a heaven and earth cave? Moreover, Brother Lin could completely guess that since Qin Xiang would tell Brother Lin such a confidential matter in the Heaven and Earth Cave, as long as Brother Lin opened his mouth, Qin Xiang would definitely not refuse any request from Brother Lin. Let's talk ...... again."
You Qinxiang said faintly: "The blue fruit and Wanhong fruit that Brother Lin gave me are no worse than this heaven and earth cave, even the blue fruit and ten thousand red fruits can be given to Qin Xiang, how can you kill Qin Xiang for this heaven and earth cave." ”
Lin Dong was embarrassed, he only cared about leaving You Qinxiang at the Lin Ji Inn to take on the task, but he didn't expect that he went too far, and actually made You Qinxiang like him. With a flash in his mind, Lin Dong retorted coldly: "Help you, it's because Sect Master Xiao and I have a good relationship, and it just so happens that he has a headache about how to deal with the great enemy of Ning Jizong." With the helper of Xingli Sect, not only can you get twice the result with half the effort, but also ensure that you have the strength to preserve and get the ensuing benefits after destroying Ningji Sect. ”
"What about the blue fruit and the red fruit?" You Qinxiang asked.
"I have so many of this stuff that I haven't eaten any medicine for a long time!" Lin Dong said lightly: "The Heaven and Earth Cave is different, not only can it help me improve my strength, but it is also of great help to me in cultivating a group of martial artists." ”
"I don't believe it!" You Qinxiang looked up at Lin Dong and said without blinking: "Brother Lin can't fool me, if that's the case, why did Brother Lin say so much to me?" If you want to prove it, it's not too late to cut it down with a sword. ”
Lin Dong was stunned, raised his arm, and hung down weakly.
"Little girl, you can't compete with Yun Yatou, why let yourself suffer and make it difficult for others." Old Man Ding's tone was plain, but the meaning of his words was not merciful at all.
You Qinxiang looked at Lin Dong with some difficulty, and her words were like a sharp knife twisting in her heart.
Lin Dong smiled bitterly and nodded: "With Miss You's intelligence, since you can see that I am lying to you, you should be able to see the reason why I am doing this." If Miss You doesn't want me to hide from you, she should calm down and think about it carefully. ”
You Qinxiang nodded gloomily, and said a little weakly: "Cultivating in the Heaven and Earth Cave is indeed a great help to the cultivation speed, but it also requires great suffering. If Brother Lin can't stand it, don't be too reluctant. I'll go out first, and after Brother Lin comes out, he can come to my yard to find me. I think I'll be able to figure it out when the time comes. ”
Lin Dong nodded, watching You Qinxiang's weak figure gradually move away, helpless, but also relieved. He believes that with You Qinxiang's intelligence, although it is difficult, he will definitely be able to untie the knot.
It wasn't until You Qinxiang disappeared from sight that Lin Dong sat on the ground, collecting his mind, intending to comprehend the power of this shocking cave. If it really works, if you can get it, it will be a great help for cultivating the escort team.
