Chapter 177: Spirit Cave

As the main hall shook slightly, a burst of buzzing sounds of air also resounded in the spacious hall. / The surroundings of this hall are obviously protected by a very powerful formation, and a trace of soft ethereal light also flickers on the four walls, like an invisible barrier, blocking the scattered and raging aura.

The sound of empty chirping lasted for almost half a column of incense before it gradually subsided. Li Xiao and the old ghost only felt that they were getting more and more stagnant, and the space that had already seemed to be extremely stagnant became even more condensed, and when the sound of empty sounds in the main hall stopped, the space around them had been condensed almost as if it were substance. If the previous hall was only near the deep sea, at this moment, it seemed to be under a huge invisible restraint, the bodies of the three people moved slightly, and there were ripples like ripples in the void.

The three of them looked at each other in shock, and a hint of ecstasy appeared on the old ghost's face.

"Sure enough, it's a real spirit cave, and it's the only spirit cave in this spirit realm. ”

The old ghost muttered as he slowly approached the opening. As his steps moved, a sound like water waves sounded around his body, and circles of visible ripples also rippled in all directions.

Li Xiao and Xiaoshan's faces also showed joy, and they followed the old ghost over.

The opening under the stone platform was about a few meters in circumference, and the three of them leaned over to the opening to look down. Below it is a stone pond with a square circle, and a mirror-like water surface can be faintly seen in the stone pool. Wisps of white smoke were rising from between the water's surface, dissipating into the void, but a strong aura came to their faces, seeping directly through their skin and into the depths of their bodies almost instantly.

"Oh my God, it's really a liquefied aura!"

The old ghost exclaimed in a low voice, his eyes were so wide that they almost fell off, and an old face instantly turned into a pig's head.

Feeling the indescribable feeling of spiritual power passing through their bodies, the three of them stared blankly at the vision in their eyes, and it was not until a moment later that the old ghost said in a trembling voice as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Quick! Li Xiao, Xiaoshan, we only have three days, if we can absorb all the aura here, the benefits are simply indescribable. Even if we can't break through the bottleneck, this liquefied aura can still wash the muscles and cut the marrow, making our demon body stronger, this is a great opportunity that can be encountered but not sought!"

Li Xiao and Xiaoshan glanced at each other, and the faces of the two also showed expressions of surprise.

"Poof, poof, poof!"

The three of them jumped up and jumped slightly. With three slight sounds, the three of them fell into the pool at the same time, and the liquid aura fluctuated slightly, and the bodies of the three people were immediately enveloped.

Li Xiao only felt that his whole body was cold, and the liquid spiritual power was extremely cold. With the strength of Li Xiao's demon body, if it only reached the temperature of the critical point of icing, it would be completely negligible to him. But this liquid spiritual power made him feel a complete chill, which seemed to seep directly into the depths of his bone marrow from the surface of his body.

It's just that this cold meaning is extremely weird, although it is extremely cold, but there is no trace of discomfort.

Li Xiao was secretly shocked in his heart, but he also knew that this liquid aura was a rare treasure. I didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and immediately sat cross-legged in the aura, my spiritual sense was introverted, and I ran the demon cultivation method that originated in the bloodline, and cultivated with all my energy.

"Boom!"

As Li Xiao's spiritual sense was restrained, a loud bang sounded in his head. In an instant, his spiritual sense lost its sense of the body, and a vague consciousness was transmitted to his seemingly dark sea of consciousness, Li Xiao felt that his body at this moment seemed to have turned into thousands of fragments and disappeared.

In his clear consciousness, there was no trace of panic. The demon cultivation method awakened from the bloodline has a very keen intuition for danger in the path of cultivation. Since Li Xiao did not feel danger and fear because of this, he knew from his instinct that this kind of vision occurred, and he had nothing to hinder his own cultivation, and he did not panic at all with that trace of clear consciousness, but calmly led the operation of the demon breath in his body. Soon, Li Xiao's spiritual sense entered a realm of emptiness.

Xiaoshan was the shortest, and Li Xiao and the old ghost were sitting cross-legged in the spirit cave, and the liquid aura only spread to their chests. As soon as Xiaoshan sat down, the aura had already submerged its entire body.

But Xiao Shan, who was submerged in the aura, didn't show any unusual expression on his face. A moment later, at the same time, like an old ghost, Xiaoshan's spiritual sense was deeply restrained and entered the sea of knowledge.

There was silence in the empty hall for a moment, but after a moment, the sound of the previous hollowness sounded again. After another moment, layers of ripples rippled in the hall, and these invisible ripples swayed in circles, and soon connected together, gathered but not dispersed, and gradually, condensed into the shape of a vortex.

The center of this vortex was just above the spirit cave, and from the center a funnel-shaped cloud hung down, extending straight into the spirit cave.

The sound of the air grew louder and louder, and after a while, it shook the sky like a violent wind and a huge wave emptying.

But inside the spirit cave, Li Xiao and the old ghost were all unconscious. At this moment, their spiritual consciousness has all converged in the sea of consciousness, if you look from the top of the spiritual cave, the faces of the three people are silent, like clay carved wood sculptures. But around their bodies, the liquid spiritual power also formed a strange vortex, corresponding to the vortex in the sky, rotating slightly.

The bodies of the three of them were completely unhindered by the rotation of the vortex. It seemed that in this short moment, the bodies of the three of them had turned into phantoms.

Time passes silently......

I don't know how long it has been, but in this hall with extremely rich spiritual energy, the vortex formed by the condensation of spiritual energy has disappeared. The aura in the main hall is still extremely rich, occasionally a little faint fluctuation gently swings in the void, and the space of the entire hall is like a water wave with a slight fluctuation, but that inexplicable pressure is much weaker than before.

"Whew!"

A slight sound of breaking the air sounded from the spiritual cave, and a figure flew up and landed in the main hall. Around him, countless lights and shadows suddenly converged and condensed the body of the old ghost.

This figure is naturally Li Xiao. He has been doing a lot of work in the spirit cave, and at this moment it is finally complete, the old ghost and Li Xiao have the same blessing of "absorbing" ability, Li Xiao woke up from the meditation, and the old ghost was immediately alarmed, and he also woke up from the breath.

Gently clenching his fist, Li Xiao punched out at will, and a sharp whistle immediately sounded from where he punched. Along the tip of his fist, a faint trace of black qi flashed, and the void at the punch suddenly flashed with a faint distortion that was invisible to the naked eye.

A hint of joy emerged from Li Xiao's face, and he slowly withdrew his fist, feeling the feeling of fullness permeating his whole body, Li Xiao couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh and muttered: "It's too strong!"

The old ghost looked at Li Xiao carefully and said, "What realm?"

"It's a pity that I still haven't been able to break through to the quenching stage, but it's already the peak of the ninth heaven of qi accumulation. Li Xiao let out a sigh of relief.

The old ghost was stunned and said, "The peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Qi Gathering Period?"

Li Xiao said in surprise: "Didn't you say that my chances of breaking through to the quenching stage are extremely slim? Looking at your appearance, why do you seem to be very surprised?"

"This time, that time!" the old ghost shook his head and sighed, "I also guessed that most of the spiritual energy in this spiritual cave has turned into reality and condensed into liquid. But I didn't expect it to be so rich, this spiritual cave is Xu Fangyuan, the depth is almost nearly a meter, the richness of this spiritual power can be regarded as appalling, originally I just thought that it was only a few feet square, it was a great opportunity. The richer this aura is, the less likely it is to encounter a bottleneck when cultivating, and originally I thought that you could break through the period of qi accumulation because of this. Now that you've reached the peak of Qi Accumulation, have you reached a bottleneck?"

Li Xiao shook his head and said, "That's not true, it's just that the current cultivation is already overflowing. ”

Whether it is a cultivator or a demonic clan, in the process of cultivation, the two states of "bottleneck" and "overflow" are both obstacles on the path of cultivation. Once you encounter a "bottleneck" in your cultivation, it means that if you continue to cultivate, it will be equally difficult to make progress in your cultivation, and only by waiting for a certain opportunity can you break through the bottleneck above your cultivation and continue to improve your cultivation.

The same is true of "overflow", once this state is generated, the cultivation of the cultivator or the demon clan cannot be further deepened, and only by waiting for this state of "overflow" to gradually disappear, and then cultivation will make the cultivation improve again.

However, "overflow" is not the same as "bottleneck". Once the cultivation reaches a bottleneck, without realizing the opportunity of this mystical extreme, it is absolutely impossible for the cultivators or the demon clan to make any further progress in their cultivation. However, the state of overflowing is a state that is temporarily produced by the body absorbing a large amount of the essence of heaven and earth. This state does not need to be broken by cultivation opportunities, but as time passes, this overflowing state will naturally gradually fade, and the force in the body of the cultivator or demon will become more condensed.

Once this overflowing state completely disappears, the cultivator or the demon clan can continue to cultivate at any time, and it has no effect on the improvement of cultivation at all.
