Chapter 42: Extracting the Spiritual Vein
Xue Chen walked in, and met a few people who were also dressed in white robes on the road, but the other party didn't suspect it, just nodded at him and left in a hurry.
Xue Chen unfolded the wisps of divine sense to probe inside, and there were unique utensils in the place where the wine was made, bottles and cans.
There are dozens of large wine vats, as well as several rows of small wine vats stacked together.
There were a few people pounding with a few thick wooden sticks, presumably brewing wine.
There was no Danying Realm monk guarding here, and Xue Chen approached and put a few people down directly, and then left.
Each spiritual vein has a central source, and only by controlling this source can the entire spiritual vein be uprooted.
He searched around, close to the center of the spiritual vein, and his aura became more and more intense, and he could already roughly feel the source of this spiritual vein, which must also be guarded by people.
A wisp of smoke drifted silently like a wind, this is a small cave in the back, and the breath is already very thick here.
Xue Chen could conclude that the central lifeline of the spirit vein must be here, and it could be seen from the handles of the two transcendent realm cultivators outside.
He struck decisively, and the spirit attack effortlessly knocked the two unconscious, and he went deep into the cave.
This seems to be an artificially dug underground stone chamber, Xue Chen hid his body and entered it, surprisingly found two corpses that had not yet decomposed, and heard intermittent voices coming from inside.
Xue Chen came to the stone wall around the corner and listened silently.
How sharp his mental power was, and at once he heard a man cry out in pain:
"If you embezzle public wealth like this, the bishop will definitely not let you go!"
There was another man's smirk inside:
"You'd better mind yourself first! When I drink all these immortal brews and raise my strength to the realm of transforming gods, who can catch me at the ends of the earth! ”
The man laughed.
There seems to be an infighting inside, with someone attacking their companions.
Xue Chen silently entered it, and sure enough, he saw the back of a person, he was holding a jar of 'immortal brew' in his hand, there were three or four corpses around, and there was a Dan Infant Realm monk lying on the ground on his back in front of him, who was already struggling to breathe.
Xue Chen quickly attacked, his spiritual power reached the peak, and before the man found him, his brain was like thunder, and with a 'boom', he bled and fell to the ground.
The man who was still lying on the ground had a surprised face, and his eyes widened as he looked at Xue Chen, who was slowly receiving.
Xue Chen looked around and found that this was a small wine cellar, and the sealed wine was neatly placed on the wooden shelf.
It should have a good tonic effect on the monks, and the monks of the Danying realm can improve their slight strength after drinking it.
"Tell me, what's inside? Hurry up. ”
Xue Chen pointed to the half-hidden stone gate behind him, and said coldly to the man who was still alive on the ground.
The cult he discovered seemed to have some origins, it was just one of their three wine-making estates, and every month they had to have the blood of living people to make the wine that these cultists drank.
The man on the ground said bitterly:
"It's also a wine cellar, but the wine inside is even rarer."
"That's all?"
Xue Chen's divine sense pressed up suddenly, feeling the terrifying coercion, the person was unexpected, and he didn't even ask much before he could say anything.
It turns out that there is another inside the inside, and the inside is the real wine cellar, but there is a giant beast guarding it outside, and if outsiders don't pay attention, they will be eaten by the demon beast.
Inside, it should be that spiritual vein.
Xue Chen crushed this person's soul and walked inside, he could already feel the spiritual vein breath inside.
"Roar!"
Halfway through, a beast roared, accompanied by the sound of chains, a demon beast really appeared in the cave, and a white-eyed tiger walked out, roaring for a while, and the blood basin opened its mouth and pounced towards Xue Chen.
Xue Chen stepped back, this was actually a Danying level demon beast, thinking that it was used by the evil sect to protect the spiritual vein.
But he was not afraid, he slashed it with the Liuyun Demon Slaying Sword, which big insect couldn't withstand the killing, one was cut through the snow-white belly, cut off half of the tiger's tail, and didn't dare to roar at Xue Chen anymore, he whimpered and retreated backwards, retreating to the iron cage on the side.
Xue Chen ignored it anymore and walked straight inside.
Passing through the cave wall, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he entered the real space inside, there were several clusters of torches inserted around, and there were indeed more than a dozen cans of 'Qiong Jelly Jade Liquid' on both sides, and there was a super big pit in the middle.
The pit appears to be filled with water, which is reflected in the roof of the cave in a sparkling pale blue light.
Xue Chen knew that this must be the spiritual vein!
He first put dozens of cans of fine wine in stock into storage bags before coming to the big pit.
Xue Chen saw several formations around him, and immediately understood.
These few fairly simple formations are actually the guiding formations they use to extract the origin of the spiritual vein, built around the central source of the spiritual vein.
Xue Chen's divine sense swept around, and after confirming that there was no danger for the time being, he sat up cross-legged on the side of the big pit, pinched the recipe with both hands and brewed for a long time, and when he felt almost over, he plunged into the pit.
The method he wants to use to extract the complete spiritual vein needs to first find its central lifeline and use the secret method to lock it.
Xue Chen has now found the central lifeline, and the next step is to lock it up.
This step, while not the hardest in the whole program, is not easy either.
Xue Chen fell, and an illusory river of exuding vitality appeared in front of him, as if it was surging and rushing, and it seemed to be still.
Sure enough, this spiritual vein can be regarded as a medium-sized spiritual vein, Xue Chen was secretly surprised in his heart, this spiritual vein was very abundant, and it was not consumed much by the manor's winemaking.
He closed his eyes and calmed down, his right hand wrapped in a faint yuan force continued to sense in front of him, as if he was looking for an acupoint, and after a while, he stopped in front of a river, and his finger continued to dance in the air, and then slammed on a certain acupoint.
The whole river shook violently, as if it were about to gush out, and began to stir.
Xue Chen hurriedly used his left hand and also pointed at an acupoint, and the entire spiritual vein seemed to tremble.
His hands were still scratching something on them, and after half a quarter of an hour, Xue Chen finally withdrew his hands, let out a long breath, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The veins have been initially controlled, and the next step is the most difficult step - to strip it completely from the leylines.
Xue Chen wasted a lot of effort to finish half of it.
At this time, between his hands, the huge spirit river continued to rotate in a vortex. Xue Chen was extremely tired, his body trembled, and he couldn't support it.
Finally, the most crucial step was completed by him, and the whole river was tightened and contracted in a certain way.
Xue Chen slowly put it into a brand new storage magic weapon and finally put it away.
Xue Chen exhaled a breath of turbidity, looking at the leylines in front of him that were completely withered and dried up, without a trace of breath, his body suddenly tensed, and he turned over and retreated.
Whoosh!
Several arrows mixed with Yuan Li shot towards this side, Xue Chen was able to dodge it, and a few of them were blocked by the Yuan Qi on his body and fell to the ground.
In the distance, more than a dozen people quickly rushed over to form a semicircle and surrounded him.
Xue Chen was careless, he didn't notice just extracting the spiritual vein, and he was almost successfully attacked!
