Chapter 18: Blood Red Eyes (6000 words)
At night, Black Ink Peak.
The light of the moon shone softly on Lin Hui's face, like a gentle hand, caressing his face, the surrounding environment was very quiet, and the evening breeze blew the leaves and scattered them on his shoulders.
Lin Hui picked up the leaves on his shoulders and looked up at the sleek moon, he was homesick, and it had been more than two months since he came to this world. At this time, the hometown is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, if you don't come here, you are already on the way home, thinking of going home, your parents' nagging, you will definitely complain about why you came back alone, and you will inevitably be scolded.
I can't feel that feeling now, Mom and Dad, are you okay in your hometown? How's the body?
"Rin Bai, when will I find the Four Holy Spirits, this world is so big, when will I find it" Lin Hui's eyes revealed longing.
"I don't know, I haven't sensed it yet, but as long as I sense it, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible" Rin Bai rarely put away the expression of the magic stick, seeing Lin Hui's appearance, he can also resonate, master, when will I see you.
"Even if I find the Four Holy Spirits, what will I do? Is it to take them in? Lin Hui thought about how to deal with it even if he found it.
"You don't have to worry about this, the four holy spirits are the protectors of the master, if you find them, Gu Yu will automatically guide them, you don't need to do anything, and the strength of the four holy spirits is very terrifying, if there is no Gu Yu, it will be difficult for anyone to subdue, but you also have to improve your cultivation, because you are not the only one looking for the four holy spirits, there are other people" Rin Bai patiently replied, asking him not to have other concerns, and when he talked about others, his tone was obviously heavier.
"Now that I have reached the seventh layer of Qi refining, what other realm is there besides the Foundation Building Realm?" Lin Hui nodded, then now only after improving his strength, he is trying to figure out how to find the Four Holy Spirits.
"The realm division is mainly divided into three major realms, each realm has a different small realm, the Qi Refining Realm is the first stage of the first big realm, after the Qi Refining Realm is the Foundation Building Realm, and then the Crystallization Realm, the Sea Realm, the Spirit Cultivation Realm, and the Yuan Shen Realm" Rin Bai said so many realms at one time, so that Lin Hui couldn't understand it for a while.
"When you reach the Yuan Shen Realm, it is the end of the first great realm, as for the second and third great realms behind, your current strength is too far away, there is no need to know it now"
After listening to Rin Bai's explanation, Lin Hui nodded, now he just knows the first great realm.
Rin Bai sensed someone approaching, and flickered into the jade tablet.
Lin Hui looked back and saw that Xue Hai was walking in this direction.
"Brother Lin, I can be regarded as having found you," Xue Hai walked over and said.
"Brother Xue, what are you looking for me? Can I help you? Lin Hui looked at him panting, as if he had been looking for himself for a long time.
"The old man is looking for you for something, you can go with me," Xue Hai explained.
Lin Hui nodded and followed Xue Hai to the Lingmo Peak in the middle of the Qingyun Sect. This is the first time he has entered Lingmo Peak, Lingmo Peak is a place where the sect master and elders cultivate, ordinary disciples will not enter here, although Qianzi Dao is known as the deacon of the inner gate, but he is also a member of the elder seat, after all, his strength has also reached the Huahai realm.
The summit of Lingmo Peak.
There are three buildings in Lingmo Peak, one is the sect master's hall, which is the hall for discussing the major affairs of the sect, and it is also the place where the sect master usually lives. One is the Hall of Elders, which is the place where the elders deliberate, and the other is the Library Pavilion, which is the place where the sect collects exercises.
Elders and deacons have their own separate caves.
Xue Hai took Lin Hui to the cave of Qianzi Road, and he said respectfully outside the cave mansion, "Disciple, Xue Hai, bring Lin Hui, an outer disciple, to meet Elder Qian. ”
"Come in," Qianzidao said in the cave.
Lin Hui followed Xue Hai into the cave, which was very spacious, and the decoration was very simple, with 30 square meters. A futon, a stone table, three stone benches, and the inner wall of the cave was inlaid with fist-sized lower grade spirit stones every one meter, so that the cave exuded rich spiritual power, and he felt that his body was beginning to absorb spiritual power automatically when he came in. There should also be a larger Spirit Gathering Array here than Xue Haidong Mansion.
"I've seen the old man" Lin Hui respectfully bowed his hand.
"Sit down," Qianzi said, sitting on the futon, and then got up and sat down at the stone table.
Xue Hai lifted the teapot and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qianzidao, then poured another cup and pushed it to Lin Hui. After sitting down, I poured myself a glass.
"This time, because the Great Elder was afraid of affecting the secret realm of the sect in a month, he stopped the competition, are you ready for the baptism of the Spirit Ink Pool in half a month?" said Qianzidao after taking a sip of tea.
"Ready, Brother Xue has already told me, I will adjust my whole body state before I go" Lin Hui glanced at Xue Hai and nodded.
"Well, the refinement of the Spirit Ink Pool is better for the disciples with higher talents, the better the effect, last year's Yichen, Dugu Dao broke through to the foundation building with the refinement of the Spirit Ink Pool, although they had already refined the ninth layer of Qi at that time" Qianzi Dao informed the benefits of the Spirit Ink Pool.
"Elder Qian's coming to me is not just to inform the Spirit Ink Pool, presumably for the secret realm of the sect in a month?" Lin Hui also guessed the purpose of Qianzidao calling him.
"Well, let me tell you the truth, the secret realm in the sect is a small world brought back by the previous sect master with his life, every year the sect will be opened, and it will be the opening time after a month, because this small world is seriously damaged, so only the disciples below the foundation building realm can enter, if the disciples above the foundation building realm force in, it will make this small world collapse" Qianzi Dao took another sip of tea and continued.
"Originally, I had already selected three people, including Xue Hai, but Xue Hai broke through to the foundation building realm, so he couldn't go in, the other two are Xu Chen and Lu Zihang, you should have seen them before"
Lin Hui thought about it, if it is a secret realm within the sect, there should be no problem if you enter it, unless the things inside need to be fought for, before adding that Xue Hai said that there are two factions in the sect, one is Elder Dugu Zongheng, and the other is Elder Yitiancheng.
"Elder Qian, you belong to the line of Elder Dugu, presumably Elder Yi will also go in," Lin Hui said after thinking about it.
Qianzidao looked at Lin Hui appreciatively, "You are very smart, yes, Elder Yi also selected three people this time, namely Yiming, Wen Yuqing, and Liu Mei." ”
Yiming, Wen Yuqing, these two names Lin Hui has seen, and there are two of them in the top four of the outer gate.
"There is a spiritual pool in the secret realm, and the spiritual ink pool in the sect is brought out by the sect master, since the sect master entered, the world inside has become more unstable, and there will be a collapse at any time, so the disciples below the foundation building realm will be allowed to enter, and there is a thing born in the spiritual pool, called the spiritual ink stone, this spiritual ink stone has no effect on you, but it has a great effect on the cultivators above the sea realm" Qianzidao didn't say anything about this, presumably Lin Hui already understood.
Lin Hui understood, Qianzi Dao wanted to enter the secret realm to compete for the spirit ink stone by himself, and then come out and hand it over to him, so he would help himself improve his strength like this before.
"Okay, you guys go down, prepare for the refinement of the Spirit Ink Pool in half a month, and I will notify you when the secret realm opens" Qianzidao waved, and then closed his eyes and sat on the futon.
Xue Hai and Lin Hui came out of the cave and walked back to Lingmo Peak's residence.
"Brother Lin, it's up to you this time, although Xu Chen and Lu Zihang's strength is good, but it's still worse than Yiming, this time your biggest threat is him" Xue Hai said as he walked.
"I'm a seventh-level Qi refiner, how can I compete with them" Lin Hui shook his head.
"Brother Lin, in the competition between you and Lei Zhan, I know you didn't give your all" Xue Hai turned around and patted Lin Hui on the shoulder, looking at him with deep meaning in his eyes.
"Brother Xue, don't worry, I'll do my best," Lin Hui replied with a smile, and then walked to his residence.
Xue Hai looked at Lin Hui's back, shook his head helplessly, and walked towards his cave.
A mountain range 100,000 miles away from Qingyun Sect, a huge, lush forest traversed here, a stone rock pig was foraging in the woods, suddenly a black shadow with a gang wind grabbed it and split it in half, the black shadow stretched out its huge fangs and began to bite the body of the stone rock pig. It is a rhinoceros beast the size of a rhinoceros, with a silvery-white horn growing on top of its head and a tail resembling a wolfdog.
This mountain range is called the Alien Beast Mountains, and there are many strange beasts in the mountains here, endlessly, and the mountains stretch for thousands of miles, with no end in sight. There are not only alien beasts in the foundation realm, but also king beasts in the crystallization realm and even the sea realm.
In the very center of the Alien Beast Mountain Range, a huge magic circle stood here, and the three figures sat on each side, forming a triangle.
There were patrolling disciples all around, standing on the sidelines and watching vigilantly.
"Bang"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the Shadow Wolf King of the Crystallization Realm rushed in, and the disciples on the side were all frightened and hurriedly retreated, a figure sitting in the magic circle, with a wave of his right hand, the long sword standing beside him was unsheathed, and with the sword light, the Shadow Wolf King of the Crystal Realm was killed by a sword!!
Retracting the sword from its scabbard, the man said, "Strange beasts have been coming here more frequently lately, and it seems that it's time to turn it on."
"Li Daoyou, I've also felt fluctuations in the magic circle recently, and my breath is getting more and more unstable, let's strengthen the magic circle," another figure said.
"Well, Bai Daoyou and Equatorial friends, let's strengthen together"
The three of them pinched their handprints and sent out three different beams of light into the circle, which emitted a dazzling light and began to reinforce.
Looking through the magic circle, there is a fire crystal inside, broken into a mirror, one meter wide and two meters high, emitting a hot, irritable energy, even the surrounding magic circle and space have become distorted, the magic circle emits a wave of fluctuations, so that the energy becomes stable, not irritable, but the distorted space is still continuing.
Inside the fire crystal.
Inside the fire crystal is a magma world, erupting hot magma everywhere, and the air is filled with irritable spiritual power, if you absorb the spiritual power here into the body, I am afraid that the whole person will burn in an instant. With the magma looking, there is a land after spreading for a hundred miles, on which there are many fire spirit beasts, the fire spirit beasts are produced by the fusion of the environment and spiritual power here, they have no spiritual intelligence, their eyes are empty, their whole body is surrounded by flames, and the blazing energy makes cultivators below the Qi Refining Realm die if they touch it.
There is a quaint hall in the center of the land, and there are two statues in front of the main hall, on which I don't know what kind of strange beast it is, with a pair of wings, a body like a tiger, but three tails.
Behind the statue is a huge stone door, and the door is densely carved with many runes.
"Roar"
With a roar, the surrounding fire spirit beasts seemed to sense some terrifying existence, and knelt down in the direction of the main hall in horror, not daring to raise their heads, their bodies trembling.
In the magma outside the land, bursts of hot magma erupted, and a black figure wandered in the magma for an unknown length inside, and suddenly the magma trembled, and two huge horns slowly emerged, and then a creature that looked like a dragon's head poked its head out of the magma and looked at the center of the main hall, its eyes were full of awe.
The center of the basilica, in the depths.
Two red lights slowly opened their eyes, this is a pair of blood-red double pupils, there is a flame burning in the double pupils, the double pupils look in the direction of the distance through the main hall, two fine lights flash out of the eyes, causing the surrounding halls to tremble, and the fire spirit beasts outside the main hall are oppressed by the breath, and they are shattered one by one on the periphery of the main hall.
Even the dragon creature in the magma slowly cracked from its head, and he rolled in the magma in a panic, looking at the hall with his eyes pleading.
"Is he coming?"
The blood-red eyes closed his eyes, and the hall stopped shaking, and the cracks in the head of the two-horned creature churning in the magma stopped spreading, and he cast an awe-inspiring look into the hall, and then burrowed into the depths of the magma and disappeared.
Qingyun Sect, Black Ink Peak, Lin Hui Residence.
Lin Hui got up early in the morning, saw that several people were still asleep, shook his head and went out.
Lin Hui had sandbags tied to his feet, and he also carried a weight-bearing sandbag on his chest, running back and forth on the stairs leading to Black Ink Peak, frog jumping, walking upside down, constantly increasing the pressure on his body, under the reminder of Rinbai, he no longer pursued the progress of cultivation quickly, but stabilized his cultivation, recently he felt that he was about to break through again, he was afraid that his foundation would not be solid after breaking through, in order not to let Qianzidao torture himself again, so he used this method to compact his body and stabilize his breath at the same time.
"Ahh
Hu Dahai yawned and walked out of the house, rubbing his sleepy eyes, just in time to see Lin Hui come back sweating profusely.
"Bang"
Lin Hui put the weight-bearing sandbag on the ground, causing a shock, which startled Hu Dahai, who had not woken up, and Jiang Yunjing, who had not woken up, ran out of the house.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is Ringo starting to go crazy again? Jiang Yunjing ran out before he had time to put on his clothes.
Seeing Lin Hui sweating profusely in front of the door, with a pile of sandbags on the ground, he walked over questioningly. Bend over and get ready to pick up.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing.... I wipe" Jiang Yunjing didn't pick up the sandbag on the ground, and looked at Lin Hui with a stunned expression.
"You haven't eaten in the morning? Can't pick up this point? Hu Dahai walked over from the side and pushed him away.
Hu Dahai first pulled it up with one hand, found that it didn't move at all, and put it on with the other hand, and then saw Hu Dahai look at Lin Hui with a questioning face, "Brother Lin, how much do you weigh?" ”
"It's not heavy, the sandbags are only 500 pounds" Lin Hui stood up and stretched, ready to wash his body, and walked towards the Yanwu Hall.
Jiang Yunjing and Hu Dahai are left, you look at me, I look at you, staring at you with big eyes.
Lin Hui rinsed his body, changed into a green shirt, and walked to the front of the trial list, there is still half a month to go to the spirit ink pool to practice, now he can do the trial task, access the trial point, and exchange some spirit stones for cultivation.
"Well, this is pretty good" Lin Hui swept over the trial list and found a task with 10 trial points.
Assist in repairing the circle with 10 trial points per hour.
"Excuse me, where is this task going to be carried out," Lin Hui asked the registered disciple on the side.
"Repair the magic circle, this task is to go to Lingmo Peak, find Deacon Kun Yu, he will tell you how to do it" The named disciple returned to the Dao.
Lin Hui nodded and walked towards Lingmo Peak, and when he arrived at Lingmo Peak, he asked the disciples passing by about Kun Yu's cave mansion.
When he arrived at Kun Yu's cave mansion, Lin Hui bent down and arched his hand and said, "Outer disciple Lin Hui, please see Deacon Kun Yu"
"Come in," Kun Yu's voice came from inside.
Lin Hui walked into the cave mansion and saw Kun Yu standing up, and said to him, "Deacon Kun Yu, I have taken the sect trial of repairing the magic array."
"Well, come with me" Kun Yu nodded and took Lin Hui to the Sect Master's Hall.
As soon as Lin Hui walked into the main hall, he saw a familiar figure sitting inside.
Yi Xue was sitting in the main hall when she saw Kun Yu coming in, got up and said, "Deacon Kun Yu"
She also saw Lin Hui behind her, didn't talk to him, turned around and walked into the other hall behind her.
Lin Hui didn't care, and followed Kun Yu to an empty cave mansion, where a small magic circle was running. Kun Yu turned around and said, "You just put your hand on this magic circle, 10 trial points every hour, this is a jade card, when you enter spiritual power, insert it into the stone trough outside the door, it will start recording the time, and when you go out, pull out the jade card and the time will be displayed, and when the time comes, you will exchange the trial points."
Lin Hui nodded in understanding, then walked to the magic circle, stretched out his hand, the magic circle launched a burst of blue light, and then operated automatically, a suction force began to absorb the spiritual power in Lin Hui's body from the palm of his hand, and a trace of spiritual power entered the magic circle with the palm of his hand.
Kun Yu took a look, turned around and left, and closed the Shangdong Mansion.
Lin Hui looked curiously at the magic circle in front of him, where dense runes were running, exuding a soft blue light. "Xiaobai, what kind of circle is this?"
"This is a spirit absorbing array, but it is not the main array, it should be composed of hundreds of such small spirit absorbing arrays, supporting a large formation, mainly playing the role of offerings." A white voice came from within the jade tablet.
Lin Hui understood that he was equivalent to a battery, and the magic circle was the importer, which played a transmission role. Suddenly, Lin Hui had an idea, if spiritual power can be inhaled, can it also be sucked out? If he could, wouldn't the magic circle in front of him be a small spirit gathering array?
"Xiaobai, can you change this magic circle? I want to use him to absorb spiritual power," Lin Hui asked tentatively.
"You are the right person to ask, I said the first for the magic circle, no one said the second, you know no!" Rin Bai came out of the jade piece, raised his little head, and said arrogantly.
"Yes, yes, you are the best, hurry up" Lin Hui said urgically, he was afraid that he would wait for Kun Yu to come in and find out.
Rin Bai stretched out his little hand and leaned against the magic circle, a trace of white light appeared on his small hand, and then he saw a few runes on the magic circle change.
"Alright," Rin Bai looked at him smugly
"That's it?" Lin Hui didn't expect it to be so fast, he stretched out his hand to the magic circle, and as soon as he got close to the magic circle, he felt a large amount of spiritual power being transmitted from the magic circle into his body, and Lin Hui hurriedly ran the spiritual decision to digest it.
After a stick of incense, Lin Hui opened his eyes, and joy appeared in his eyes, this spiritual power was equivalent to absorbing the spiritual power of a low-grade spirit stone.
"Now you can make a fortune" Lin Hui excitedly continued to absorb the spiritual power in the magic circle, and then continued to refine.
Time passed quickly, and in an instant, it was evening, Lin Hui took off the jade plate in the magic circle cave, and then an expression of spiritual power overdraft appeared on his face, and he walked to Kun Yu's cave.
"Deacon Kun" Lin Hui dragged his heavy hand and handed the jade plate to Kun Yu.
"You're okay, don't work so hard to earn trial points, you've been in the circle room for a day" Kun Yu still reminded him when he looked at his weak appearance.
Lin Hui was actually excited in his heart, how could I be willing to give up such a good place, I would like to stay in it for the rest of my life, but there was still a sigh on my face, "No way, Deacon Kun, I can't keep up with my cultivation speed without spirit stones, only by earning more trial points and exchanging them for lower-grade spirit stones can I improve my cultivation."
Lin Hui dragged his tired and weak body and disappeared from Kun Yu's sight, Kun Yu couldn't help but shake his head, "Are all the current disciples so rolled?" ”
The rest of the time, Lin Hui came to Kunyu Cave Mansion in the morning, and after getting the jade tablets, he went to the magic circle room to start absorbing the spiritual power in the magic circle to cultivate, and in the evening, he pretended to be tired and weak and handed in the jade tablets.
At first, Kun Yu thought that Lin Hui would not come in two days, but after five days like this, Kun Yu reminded him because of Lin Hui's physical condition, "Don't come after today, I'm afraid your body won't be able to hold on, it's broken."
Lin Hui's eyes were dark, his eyes were dark, as soon as he heard that Kun Yu would not let him continue to absorb spiritual power and repair the magic circle, he forced him and said, "Deacon Kun, I'm fine, you let me continue to earn more trial points, please, it is really not easy for us to enter the sect as a casual cultivator, and I finally encountered the bright road on the road of cultivation, I will definitely fight hard to live up to the expectations of the sect, live up to Deacon Kun's concern, and live up to it..."
"Okay, don't talk about it, in the last five days, there can't be more" Kun Yu hurriedly interrupted him, otherwise he was afraid that Lin Hui would keep talking.
"Ahem, thank you Deacon Kun, I will definitely cultivate hard and contribute to the sect" Lin Hui patted his chest, and then dragged his weak body back.
In this way, on the seventh day of absorbing the spiritual power of the magic array, Lin Hui broke through to the eighth layer of qi refining, and the spiritual power absorbed in the last three days was used to stabilize the realm.
When the evening of the last day came, in the Circle Cave Mansion, Lin Hui slowly exhaled a breath, his eyes opened, and a trace of essence flashed. Let Rin Bai restore the magic circle, and after pulling out the jade card, he pretended to be weak and came to the Kunyu Cave Mansion.
"In the past ten days, you have five hours a day, a total of fifty hours, a total of 500 trial points, hey, you are too hard" Kun Yu looked at Lin Hui's weak appearance, and couldn't bear it.
"Thank you, Deacon Kun," Lin Hui bent over and said, he said this sincerely.
