Chapter 55: The Essence of the Spirit
Yun Lan had never seen the spirit essence.
The book describes: The outermost layer of the spiritual essence is wrapped by the best spirit stone, clear and translucent, the inside is like water, crystal clear, warm, and eating it can increase cultivation.
However, no one will destroy the heavenly things and eat the spirit marrow, this thing is equivalent to a moving treasure house, the existence of the spirit marrow means that there is an inexhaustible supply of spirit stones, just like this place now, every day there are new spirit stones condensed.
Yun Lan dug deeper and deeper, and the spirit stones dug out gradually replaced from high-grade spirit stones to top-grade spirit stones, and while the density became larger and larger, the size also changed from the size of a fist to the size of a grinding plate, and it often appeared in litters one by one.
She knew that she was not far from the spiritual essence.
In order not to hurt the spirit essence, Yun Lan's movements became more and more careful.
Finally, when cleaning the rock on the side of a top-grade spirit stone, as the rock slowly peeled off, the diameter of the crystal area inside exceeded the length of Yun Lan's two hands stretched out, and it was several times the size of the previous grinding plate.
Yun Lan continued to clean up, and after an hour, this huge spirit stone finally showed its full appearance.
The diameter is about two zhang long, it is an irregular ball, and the outside is no different from the best spirit stone, but when it is moved, you can clearly see the water-like liquid inside shaking.
The light in the cave all comes from the spirit stones on the stone walls, but this chalcedony is slightly different from the spirit stones, and the light it emits is more charming than ordinary spirit stones.
Yun Lan didn't know how to describe it, anyway, this was the most beautiful object she had ever seen, there was no one, just standing next to it could feel the vigorous and turbulent aura inside.
If nothing else, this is the spiritual essence.
This spiritual essence looks like water, but it is actually extremely heavy.
With Yun Lan's current cultivation, although it is not enough to say that it is to move mountains and seas, it is more than enough to freeze the water in the waterhole outside into ice and lift it with spiritual power.
But the spirit essence looks like this, it is not as big as the spirit boat that Uncle Shi sent them at the beginning, Yun Lan used all his strength but could only shake it a little bit.
Fortunately, you don't need to lift it up to put it in the storage ring, as long as you consume a little spiritual power, wrap it with your divine sense, and pull the space in the storage ring to put it in.
After the spiritual essence disappeared, the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly decreased a lot, as if it had been evacuated by something.
Yun Lan only subconsciously scanned it with her divine sense, and the barrier on the stone wall that had blocked the detection of her divine sense disappeared along with the spiritual essence.
In this way, it was convenient for Yun Lan, where there was a spirit stone to dig up, and this spirit vein was quickly emptied.
The main reason was that the previous Heavenly Star Lotus had consumed a large part of the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein, otherwise Yun Lan would not have been able to dig it up so quickly.
The small spirit vein that their Tianyan Sect has also produces a few high-grade spirit stones a year, most of the time they are medium-grade spirit stones and low-grade spirit stones, and the top-grade spirit stones may only have a little bit in the depths of the spirit veins, but their branch veins also cover the three main peaks.
Otherwise, the spiritual essence here is so pure, it is impossible for the radiation range to be so small.
In the process of digging the spirit stone, Yun Lan needed to control the strength to avoid damage to the spirit stone, and Yun Lan needed to use her divine sense to explore the location of the spirit stone and speed up the excavation, so that she could consolidate her cultivation and lay a solid foundation.
There is still one step left before the Yuan Infant Period.
Either look for an opportunity like the previous Jindan early stage breakthrough to the middle Jindan stage, or take a spiritual object like the Heavenly Star Lotus and directly impact the new stage with a huge spiritual power.
In fact...... It's not that they have to leave here after joining Huang Xinyue and them, as long as they don't enter the depths of the Relic Mansion, this is indeed a good place to practice.
If you go out from here, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to come in again.
As long as you make sure that Nantang is safely sent out.
Going out of the waterhole, there were many more footprints of demon beasts on the shore, all of which came after Yun Lan entered the waterhole.
Those guys didn't care if the lizard was poisonous or not, and gnawed its carcass clean.
As for the corpses of other demon beasts, they were all put away by Yun Lan and were not ruined.
The spiritual grass in the waterhole had been taken away, and the spiritual energy of the spiritual veins at the bottom of the pool had also been isolated by that layer of spiritual power cover, and those demon beasts left here after gnawing on the lizards.
Yun Lan didn't stay long, and continued to rush towards the outer periphery of the ruins towards the traces left by the demon beasts.
After turning to the Xuan Ming Technique and breaking through to the peak of the Jindan Stage, she hurried much faster, no slower than when Edgeworth was flying.
It's just a pity that her sword is gone, and there are no handy weapons in the future.
Although he got a high-grade spiritual weapon from the white-haired monkey, it was a mace, and Yun Lan had no experience in using a mace before.
However, they are all short weapons, except that they can't be stabbed, and the others are not much different from the use of swords...... Right?
After getting the mace before, Yun Lan didn't look carefully and kept digging for spirit stones.
Now there are a lot of demon beasts on the road, and Yun Lan doesn't have any other weapons for the time being, so he just took them out for research.
This mace can't see any material, and it may weigh tens of thousands of catties, but after injecting spiritual power to activate the formation above, there are only 100 catties left in the hand, and it does not affect its own weight when it smashes on the enemy.
Without using any force, Yun Lan easily hammered a third-order demon beast away.
The mace has a great bonus when dealing with enemies of the same level, and even when facing opponents who are stronger than you, as long as it is not the kind that is extremely fast, it can have a good effect.
The more he walked in the direction that the demon beast left, the more frequent the low-level demon beast appeared, and Yun Lan became more and more sure that he was going in the right direction.
On the way, she also collected some poisons and left them for the little mouse as rations.
After sucking the lizard's venom, the little mouse fell into a deep sleep and still hasn't woken up.
However, when it wakes up, it is estimated that it will be eaten as soon as possible, so it is better to prepare it in advance.
Although these things are not as poisonous as the fourth-order demon beasts, they are not much worse than the poison sac of the big centipede at the beginning.
While walking through an unremarkable forest, the world in front of Yun Lan suddenly changed.
The formations in this immortal relic mansion are layer after layer, and there is a guardian array on the outermost periphery, and there is actually a hidden formation after coming in.
If Yun Lan guessed correctly, the reason why she didn't see the stone gate in the picture that appeared in her mind between the two mountains in the central area was probably hidden by the formation.
And there is nothing wrong with all this from the outside, and it is only after entering the interior that the anomaly will be discovered.
If she hadn't been thrown in by the iron-eating spider before, Yun Lan wouldn't have found out.
Out of the formation, Yun Lan quickly discovered the traces of the monk's fight with the demon beast.
The trails were simply cleaned up, leaving no traces of blood that would attract more monsters, but the traces left by spells and artifacts around them were not obscured.
