Chapter 34: Entering the Spirit Pool
The eastern section of the Wanren Mountains.
In the valley full of purple wildflowers, a young man in a blue robe with a red mole on his eyebrows was manipulating a flying sword with a haunting blue light flying up and down.
Ding Ding Ding!
Sparks splashed on the bluestone, and stone chips flew out.
Rumble!
Then all the phantoms quickly gathered and condensed into a handful, cutting the hard boulder in half.
"No wonder it's called a thousand-edged sword, it turns out that it means so. It is worthy of being a Ding-level spiritual weapon, and it is really much stronger than the flying sword issued by the sect! ”
The young man beckoned to withdraw the long sword and looked at the flying sword in his hand with a satisfied expression.
This young man is none other than Sun Yi'an, who came to the appointment. At this time, it was almost the date agreed with that Senior Brother Lu.
He had found this place more than half a month ago according to the information left by the jade talisman, and after restoring the spiritual power in his body to the best state, he began to study the only few talismans on his body and the flying sword in his hand.
Although this sword had been in his hands for several years, because he had been busy cultivating, and was later arrested for alchemy, it was only at this time that he began to become familiar with the control.
The sharpness of this sword made him very excited, and he unconsciously looked forward to breaking through to the foundation building stage as soon as possible, once he broke through to the foundation building stage, he could be regarded as officially entering the hall in cultivation, and then he could manipulate the top-level magic weapon of the hexagonal disc placed in the storage bag.
The power of the magic weapon is not comparable to the spiritual weapon, otherwise the senior brother Lu would not have given up most of his wealth to replace the golden pu knife.
Speaking of which, although Sun Yi'an Zheng'er has not entered the cultivation world for a long time, in terms of wealth, almost no one of the monks of the same level can compare with him.
Very few Qi Refining Stage cultivators can have hundreds of spirit stones on their bodies, a top-level spirit weapon in their hands, and a top-level magic weapon in their storage bag!
For today's Sun Yi'an, what he lacks is only the means and experience to fight with others.
A few days later.
Two figures with flying swords appeared above the valley covered with purple wildflowers, paused for a moment and slowly fell towards the valley.
Sun Yi'an naturally saw the person coming early, and as soon as the two landed, they took two steps forward and bowed:
"I've seen two senior brothers!"
"Haha! Senior Brother Sun had indeed arrived, and the two of us had something on the way and were delayed for a few days, so we came a little later than agreed, but it made Senior Brother Sun wait for a long time. ”
Senior Brother Lu, who was full of pockmarked faces, was in a good mood when he saw Sun Yi'an, and said with a smile.
Senior Brother Lu said seriously, Senior Brother I also just arrived here a few days ago."
Sun Yi'an replied politely.
"Let me introduce you to Senior Brother Sun, this is Senior Brother Wu I mentioned to you, and Senior Brother Wu is also one of the outer deacons like me."
This Senior Brother Wu was at the peak of his cultivation in the early days of foundation building, looking like he was in his thirties, wearing a blue and gray robe, his eyes were deep-set, his cheekbones were high, and he had slender lips, giving people a sense of lunar calendar.
"I've seen Senior Brother Wu!"
Sun Yi'an didn't dare to slack off, and bowed to the strange man opposite.
Senior Brother Wu saw that Sun Yi'an was just a small shrimp in the late stage of Qi training, and said lightly:
"Senior Brother Lu has already told me about you, and since he promised to take you into the spirit pool, I won't say anything more."
After this man finished speaking, he moved his eyes and looked away, quite arrogant.
"Ahem! Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Sun, without further ado, let's leave for the Spirit Pool, right? ”
Senior Brother Lu glanced at Sun Yi'an, who was a little embarrassed, and spoke.
Sun Yi'an stepped on the flying sword, tried his best to follow behind the two, and flew into the distance. This is because the two of them deliberately slowed down to take care of him, otherwise with the speed of the sword of the foundation building monk, he would have been thrown away without a trace.
After turning around for two hours, the three of them landed in a bare stone mountain with no grass.
Just looking at the depressed and barren appearance of this mountain, it is really impossible to connect it with the spirit stone veins. Because in general, places with strong aura tend to have lush vegetation and many insects and birds.
"Senior Brother Lu, you can use your divine sense to confirm whether the marks we left behind have been moved."
As soon as he landed, Senior Brother Wu squinted his eyes and glanced around, and then commanded.
"Haha! Senior Brother Wu rest assured, although my cultivation is shallow, but I still have some attainments in the way of the formation, and there is a divine sense imprint left by me on the covering formation, if I have really been moved, such a close distance would have been sensed by me a long time ago! ”
Senior Brother Lu laughed and said quite confidently.
Senior Brother Wu nodded:
"In that case, you and I will join forces to open the formation!"
The two of them put away their swords, came to the stone wall not far away, flipped their hands and flew up, and they respectively played several magic duels and disappeared into the stone wall.
After a few breaths, a black passage that was one person tall and three or four feet wide, allowing only one person to pass through appeared on the stone wall.
As soon as they saw the passage appear, the two glanced at each other, Senior Brother Lu smiled and made a "please" gesture, and that Senior Brother Wu was not polite and took the lead in stepping into the passage.
"Senior Brother Sun, you also go in, I want to seal the entrance of the cave!"
Senior Brother Lu turned his head and squinted at Sun Yi'an.
Sun Yi'an smiled in return and walked in.
After entering the cramped passage for dozens of zhang, it was completely dark in front of him, but with the monk's eyesight, he could still see the situation within seven or eight zhang.
The passage did not go straight forward, and after walking a few dozen feet further, it suddenly began to extend downwards steeply.
After the three of them entered the passage, they didn't speak again, Senior Brother Wu was in front, Sun Yi'an was in the middle, and Senior Brother Lu was behind, maintaining a distance of three or four zhang and slowly walking deeper into the passage, and the atmosphere was extremely quiet for a while.
After a cup of tea, the passage became smooth again, and slightly wider, and from time to time there was a fork in the road that did not know where to go.
Senior Brother Wu, who was walking in front, continued to move forward without stopping at all, and Sun Yi'an could only follow him to continue walking.
After walking for nearly half an hour, the three of them finally came to a wide place three or four zhang away. The two teamed up again to unravel a concealment formation, and an even narrower passage appeared in front of them.
"Wu has been trapped in the early stage of foundation building for many years, and with the help of Lingchi, at least fifty percent of this time is sure to break through to the middle stage!"
Senior Brother Wu stared at the passage with irrepressible excitement.
"Haha! Then Senior Brother, I would like to congratulate Senior Brother Wu in advance on his great progress in cultivation! ”
Senior Brother Lu laughed and said.
"Well, this place was discovered by you and me together, and it is naturally a common opportunity between you and me, Senior Brother Lu, even if you can't break through to the middle stage this time, at least you can use the majestic aura to advance to the peak of the early stage, with Senior Brother Wu's talent, it is a matter of time before you enter the middle stage!"
Even in the dark, you could see the scorching heat in Senior Brother Wu's eyes.
"Without further ado, let's open this last masking formation now!"
The two of them teamed up again to shoot dozens of brilliant magic duels into the corner of the ground, and a new passage appeared on the stone wall.
A pure and majestic aura slowly tumbled out of the passage!
Sun Yi'an had never felt such a strong aura, whether it was the Yuehua Gathering Spirit Array arranged by the Guangfa Immortal Monarch at the beginning, or the cave when he helped the master and Elder Lu to refine the pill, compared to the aura rising at this time, it was not worth mentioning at all!
He took a deep breath of the oncoming aura, and only felt that his whole body was extremely comfortable, as if he was in a warm pool of water, and this feeling made him extremely intoxicated.
And that's just the aura wafting out of the spirit pool!
"After entering the spirit pool, you'd better be honest, otherwise you're not welcome!"
Senior Brother Wu's sympathetic warning sounded Sun Yi'an, and he stepped into the cave that exuded spiritual power.
Sun Yi'an remained silent, although the two foundation building period monks in front of him were the same family, he always had a sense of seeking the skin of the tiger.
"Hey, hey!"
Senior Brother Lu chuckled lightly and followed Senior Brother Wu into the cave mansion.
Sun Yi'an gritted his teeth and cautiously followed.
After entering this passage for a few feet, as soon as he turned left, he was completely shocked by the dreamlike scene in front of him!
This is a naturally formed karst cave, only seven or eight zhang in size. On the top of the cave, there are crystal clear stalactites, exuding a soft five-colored glow, illuminating this place like a dream. The aura that was so thick that it was somewhat moist condensed into a cloud of mist and floated between the stalactites.
In the middle of the cave, there is a bluestone platform of about one zhang, and in the middle of the stone platform, is the five-color spirit pool.
The spiritual pool is only five or six feet in size, one foot deep, the pool is like water but not water, like fog and not fog, both crystal clear, and hazy, a cloud of spiritual mist slowly floats from the spiritual pool into the air, and there is a trace of spiritual mist like silk clinging to the stone platform and pouring into the spiritual pool, so constantly going back and forth.
"It's a legendary fairyland, but that's it!"
Senior Brother Wu muttered with a burning look in his eyes.
"Yes! To this day, I can't believe that there is such a thing in the world! Last time, I sealed this place in a hurry, and I didn't even have time to take a closer look! ”
Senior Brother Lu stared directly at Lingchi and said.
Sun Yi'an tried to calm the shock in his heart and secretly swallowed his saliva.
Although he had long known about the spiritual pool in the classics, he found that this thing was far more magical and more powerful than he imagined!
Senior Brother Wu walked onto the bluestone platform and said a little impatiently:
"This spirit pool can only allow one person to enter at a time, Wu will go in and try to break through, and I hope that Senior Brother Lu will protect the Dharma for me."
"This is natural, Senior Brother Wu, please first!"
Although it is also in the early stage of foundation building, this Senior Brother Wu has half a foot in the early peak cultivation of the middle stage of foundation building, and of course he has the final say here.
After Senior Brother Lu turned around and used the array array flag to seal the passage into the cave, he glanced at Sun Yi'an lightly and said:
"Senior Brother Sun, you meditate and breathe on your own for a while, this spiritual pool contains incomparably abundant spiritual power, which is enough for the three of us to use. Later, after the two of us finish cultivating, I will summon you in! ”
"Thank you, two senior brothers."
Sun Yi'an thanked him, then found a corner and sat down.
"Senior Brother Lu, I didn't ask you carefully on the way here, why did you bring this person here? This matter is the work of the sect behind the back, involving the spiritual objects of heaven and earth such as the spirit pool, in case this person leaks the news, the elders of the sect who are high up will be investigated, and you and I can't afford to be charged with self-theft! ”
Senior Brother Lu's voice sounded in his head.
"Huh! Senior Brother Wu didn't know that there were some secrets in this person. Senior brother, the mid-level magic weapon forging gold knife I got a few years ago was in the hands of this person at a great cost.
"Later, I accidentally learned that this knife was the object of the Venerable Master of the Golden Light View who fell a few years ago, and with the considerable wealth of the Venerable Master, I deduced that there should be a lot of good things on this person!
"That's why I led him here, and after you and I finish cultivating, we will take away his storage bag and leave him here forever!"
Senior Brother Lu replied.
Senior Brother Wu was a little hesitant:
"Is there such a thing? But after all, he is a disciple of Geng Pojun of Beixiong Peak, and Geng Pojun is a well-known protector, if he kills this person, I am afraid that he will get into trouble for you and me! ”
"Senior Brother Wu, please rest assured, he is just a registered disciple in the Qi refining period, and Geng Pojun doesn't care about his life or death.
"Moreover, according to a demon cultivator of the Jin Kingdom captured by the sect half a year ago, the north of the Jinyang Mountain Range has not been peaceful in recent years, and it is said that several demon cultivators of the Jin Kingdom have been wiped out by the Buddhism and are migrating to the south in a big way.
"Once the Demon Cultivator crosses the Jinyang Mountain Range, the first to bear the brunt is our Haoyang Sect. Those old things in the sect have never treated our outer disciples as human beings, and you and I will definitely be sent out as cannon fodder.
"Now, as long as you and my brother advance to the middle stage of foundation building, where will the world be from now on? Even if it is enough to find a place full of spiritual energy to open a mountain and establish a sect, isn't it much better than being an outer deacon in Haoyang Sect to work for others? ”
Senior Brother Lu's lips moved slightly, and he transmitted the voice again.
"Well, Senior Brother Lu is reasonable, and I have heard a little about this matter. That being the case, I hurried to try to break through! Senior Brother Wu's face was a little more solemn, and he didn't say more, and slowly entered the spirit pool and meditated cross-legged.
Of course, Sun Yi'an wouldn't know about the transmission of the two, but he never thought that the two would kill him!
Besides, he had no time to look away at the moment, because another strange thing had completely attracted his attention!
