30. Cultivation
When Ye Xuan knew that someone was following him, he had already thought of a strategy.
He knew that since the other party dared to hang far behind him, he must be a master of the innate realm, if it weren't for the dragon vein qi, he wouldn't mind being followed behind, anyway, the other party didn't have any hostility.
It's just that because of the dragon vein qi, it is impossible for Ye Xuan to let the other party discover his traces.
And he also knew that even if he used all his strength, it would be impossible to outrun the opponent, so in an instant he figured out his tactical ideas.
You only get one chance!
After coming to the cold so many times, Ye Xuan already knew the distance of this road.
Therefore, along the way, he only uses three or four points of force to maintain an appropriate moving distance. In fact, just as he had guessed, the other party had indeed increased his speed slightly when he was about to enter the mountain, but it was not much faster.
When Ye Xuan entered the forest, the moment he used the trees to block his view, he immediately burst out with all the strength of his body, and sure enough, he successfully got rid of the stalker.
However, what Ye Xuan didn't expect was that the other party no longer continued to track, but had basically figured out his bottom just by his explosive power at that moment.
Ye Xuan didn't know these things, he glanced back, and after seeing that the other party hadn't caught up, he found a place to hide and rest for a while, and by the way, he calmed down his disordered breath. After waiting a few moments to make sure that no one was following him, he jumped off the trunk and walked towards the cave.
Compared to when this cave was first discovered, the aura in the cave was significantly less.
The domineering of "Mountains and Rivers" is obvious.
For the absorption of aura, it is to absorb a little less, and it is impossible to recover without a long period of cultivation.
Ye Xuan didn't know how deep this cave was, and in front of these aura that were so thick that they had formed a fog barrier, he couldn't ignore these aura and continue to go deeper. However, according to his calculations, in the past two months, from the location where these auras were first discovered, they have advanced almost thirty meters now.
Although the distance of thirty meters may seem like a short time, the intensity of its aura is enough to raise a martial artist from the lower rank nine to the upper rank one.
But for Ye Xuan, these auras had only just reached the peak of the middle rank sixth, and one of the meridians in his body had only been refined by one-fifth, and he was still far from truly becoming the shape of the earth vein.
But Ye Xuan was not in a hurry, the breath of the dragon vein was far deeper than the earth vein, Ye Xuan expected that the dragon vein origin qi in this was enough for him to refine a meridian into the shape of the earth vein, and his cultivation would definitely be able to be promoted to the upper rank.
But it all takes time.
Walking into the dense fog formed by the aura, a sense of oppression began to squeeze from all around, as if to exclude Ye Xuan, an outsider.
But this level was obviously not enough for Ye Xuan to stop, and he continued to walk forward.
And as he gradually deepened, the feeling of oppression around him began to gradually become stronger, and it was not until finally that Ye Xuan had already begun to feel that his skin seemed to have begun to crack, and he stopped.
Instead of moving on, he meditated cross-legged on the ground, and then began to run the exercises of the "Mountains and Rivers".
If someone is here, they can clearly see that at this moment, Ye Xuan is emitting a strong suction, and the whole person is like a vortex located in the center of the world, and he begins to absorb all the surrounding spiritual energy into his body.
After the aura was sucked into Ye Xuan's body, it was immediately driven by the Zhoutian cycle route formed by the "Mountains and Rivers Jue".
Today's Ye Xuan is not the Ye Xuan he was when he first discovered this cave, and the aura he absorbs into his body now is no longer a trace or a wisp, but a direct absorption of it one by one.
After each stream of spiritual energy was sucked into the body, it immediately operated according to the exercise route that had been opened up before, constantly impacting the meridians in the body, breaking away all the branches that were blocked by those meridians, and then starting to flow through a meridian designated by Ye Xuan, completely integrating into the meridians, making this meridian that was gradually evolving into the shape of the earth vein a little stronger.
As if sensing the constant changes that were taking place in his body, Ye Xuan began to increase the operation of the mountains and rivers, and the whole person completely turned into an endless black hole, the suction power instantly doubled, and in an instant, more aura began to pour in crazily.
As the suction gradually strengthened, the surrounding aura that was as thick as a mist began to become unstable, as if it had been blown by a strong wind and could collapse at any time.
The spiritual mist around Ye Xuan began to thin out!
Almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, the spiritual mist that was originally so thick that it could not be dissolved around Ye Xuan began to gradually thin under this powerful suction, as if the air had been completely drained. But soon, because of the sudden thinning of the aura in the middle, it seemed to create a fault, which led to Ye Xuan as the boundary, and the aura on the front and back sides also became unstable.
A dull tremor suddenly sounded in the mist.
Immediately afterward, the fog condensed by the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to collapse, and the spiritual energy in the front and back began to fill in the fault.
But no matter how it was filled, these spiritual qi would be sucked into Ye Xuan's body as soon as possible.
However, this kind of filling is also dangerous.
Because the disappearance of the aura will cause a fault, the surrounding aura will instantly pour into this fault, with the oppressive force formed by the aura emitted by the origin of the dragon vein, when pouring into this fault space to fill the gap of the aura, there will be a pressure that is several times stronger than before this area, and the whole person will be completely squeezed and exploded into a pile of minced meat if he is not careful.
It's just that it's not the first time Ye Xuan has cultivated the "Mountains and Rivers Jue", and he is naturally clear about these problems, so this instantaneous explosion of pressure constantly did not blow him up into a pile of minced meat, but was used by Ye Xuan to temper his body.
With the pure aura in the body emitted into the muscles and flesh around the body, the muscles are squeezed apart by the instantaneous surge of pressure, and then the aura is infiltrated into these muscles, and it is completely recombined with his body, and by the way, the physical body is also cultivated.
This is a way of cultivating that kills two birds with one stone.
In just one hour, the fog condensed by this aura retreated another meter into the depths of the cave.
And Ye Xuan's cultivation can generally last for about four hours. Compared with the caution at the beginning, the further the "Mountains and Rivers Jue" set of exercises, the faster the speed of absorbing the leyline aura, and when almost seven or eight meridians are refined into the shape of the leyline, each time the absorption of the leyline qi will be like a gluttonous devouring, and once it will cause the aura in an area to disappear instantly.
It is precisely because of this that when cultivating the "Mountains and Rivers Jue" to the later stage, there are more and more leyline qi needed.
Four hours later, Ye Xuan finally spit out a mouthful of turbid exhaust gas, although there were several cracks in the skin on his body, and the blood that flowed out had dried up, Ye Xuan felt a burst of refreshment, and his body was indescribably comfortable.
However, the feeling of swelling pain from the meridians also made Ye Xuan frown a little.
Without any hesitation, he opened the jade bottle containing the Pulse Protector Pill, and then poured out a Pulse Protector Pill.
This elixir is a light blue color, like a mud pill, the surface does not have any luster, and you can feel a slight coolness when you put it on the palm of your hand.
Ye Xuan threw it into his mouth, and as soon as he raised his head, he swallowed the Pulse Protection Pill.
The peculiar thing was that after this vein protection pill, which was very hard to hold, was swallowed by Ye Xuan, it completely melted in the throat, turned into a cold liquid, and then flowed into all the meridians around the body.
As soon as this liquid entered the meridians, it immediately penetrated into all the meridians, as if forming a light blue protective cover, and the meridians that were still a little swollen and painful instantly did not feel any pain, but became extremely comfortable because of this cool feeling.
With the help of the medicinal effect of the Pulse Guarding Pill, the meridians that originally required meditation were healed at an astonishing speed, and even accelerated the integration of the aura remaining in the meridians that had not yet penetrated into the meridians.
Ye Xuan, who had been tossed by the swelling pain of this meridian for a while, suddenly felt such a cool and comfortable feeling, and couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan. However, he quickly sat cross-legged again, and after exhaling lightly, his spirit calmed down again, and then he started to run the "Mountains and Rivers Jue" technique again, and began to absorb the aura around him again.
When these spiritual qi penetrated into the meridians again, they began to wear off the medicinal effect of the Pulse Protection Pill, and the original cool feeling began to heat up.
Ye Xuan knew that he only had two hours of cultivation time at most, and then the medicinal effect would be completely evaporated, and he naturally couldn't waste this time, so he continued to speed up the operation of the "Mountains and Rivers Jue" without any scruples, absorbing a large amount of the surrounding aura.
After going on like this for another two hours, Ye Xuan finally stopped cultivating today, and this time when he opened his mouth to spit out the turbid qi, it lasted for more than ten seconds, and this turbid qi even emitted a rancid stench.
Yun Gong looked inwardly and felt the changes in his body, and Ye Xuan's face instantly appeared with joy: Intermediate Six-Rank Peak!
"At the moment, it seems, everything is planned. Ye Xuan suppressed the joy in his heart, and then began to think carefully, "At this rate, I will probably be able to break through to the fifth grade the day after tomorrow." The race at the end of the month, if there are no accidents, should be able to reach the top of the five. ”
Seeing that everything was going smoothly and developing in the direction he wanted, Ye Xuan felt that the blood in his body seemed to be burning.
"Come on! In two years at most, I can leave here and get the Sumeru ring back!"
