Chapter 12 Destroying the withered and decaying
"Whew"
Cui Ning let out a long breath of turbid air and opened his eyes, and a layer of mud appeared on his body.
"Huh? What is this, it stinks!"
Cui Ning frowned, and then found a valley, cleaned himself, and then began to use internal vision to check his physical condition.
I saw that the aura mass in the body was very thick, like a thick fog, and there was no problem with the dantian, internal organs, and limbs, and the tendons and veins had become a little thicker.
After checking it a few more times, Cui Ning was relieved to be sure that his thirteenth-level cultivation in the Qi cultivation period had been consolidated.
Thinking about the crisis in the stalactite cave a few days ago, Cui Ning was suddenly a little afraid, and then began to summarize the "crisis and shortcomings" of this adventure.
"The first is to enter the underground to explore without learning the earth spell, then in the face of the demon beast without multi-angle observation, almost poisoned by the other party, and finally in the face of the unknown spirit fruit directly swallowed."
Cui Ning concluded unhurriedly.
Three mistakes, the last two are an existential crisis. Cui Ning touched his chest when he thought of this, and he almost kowtowed to Donghuang Zhong. If it weren't for Admiralty's bodyguard, I am afraid that I would already be a pile of bones.
Breaking through to the thirteenth layer of the Qi Refining Period, Cui Ning's spiritual energy storage was much more than before.
The most powerful reflection of spiritual power is that Cui Ning's condensed Sun True Flame has become larger, and its color has become more purple, which can already be called the Sun True Sphere. Both the power and the duration are more than ten times stronger than when they were on the tenth floor.
Thinking of this, Cui Ning condensed a Sun True Flame fireball to attack a big tree, and even the mountains and rocks near the big tree were burned, which made Cui Ning feel frightened, fortunately, this Sun True Flame can compress the volume, otherwise when facing the enemy in the future, a fireball flew out, and the enemy was killed, and the innocent people nearby would have to die with them.
I don't know what kind of exercise this sun trick is, except for the magic power of Sun Zhenyan, there are no other magic spells in the exercise formula of the Qi training period, which makes Cui Ning feel disgusted for a while.
Thinking of the Eastern Emperor Bell, Cui Ning wanted to take this opportunity to study this "ancient artifact" well.
The appearance of the Eastern Emperor Bell has been four times, the first time is that he was cut off by the ink snake dagger, and was robbed of the unknown soul body, the second time is when he voluntarily entered a strange space and saw the body of the Eastern Emperor Bell, and the second time is the recent Scaly Snake Crisis and the Fruit Swallowing Explosion Crisis.
"Donghuang Zhong took the initiative to appear on his own, and it seems that he appeared when I was in danger. Could it be that this is the passive protection function of the East Emperor Bell?
But I can't try this, if I don't have this effect or the number of times it is limited, then I will be in a desperate situation because of this. ”
"As for one of the special circumstances, it seems that I meditated on the Donghuang Bell at that time......"
Cui Ning said, and unconsciously remembered the golden bell in his mind.
"Whew!"
Before Cui Ning finished speaking, he once again came to this extremely large space, and the surroundings were still foggy. In the middle of the space is the Donghuang Bell with a yellow body.
"That's really the case, as long as you meditate, you can come to the body of the Eastern Emperor Bell. But how do you get out?"
After being distressed for a while and not having any clue, Cui Ning had to let go of this idea and "flew" in front of the body of the Eastern Emperor Bell instead.
When he arrived in front of the Donghuang Bell, Cui Ning felt the simple and heavy aura emanating from the Donghuang Bell itself.
The Eastern Emperor Bell is still the same, and it hasn't changed much, at least in Cui Ning's opinion. It's just that this time he also tried to use his spiritual sense, wanting to see what mysteries were in the Eastern Emperor Bell. It's just that as soon as the spiritual consciousness touches the bell body, it disappears without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.

Under Tianshui City, Wang Long and Wang Jian, the two generals of the Zhenxi Army, looked at the white flag on the city tower with a smile, and behind the two generals were the mighty 80,000 armor soldiers.
Tianshui City belongs to a big city in the northern region, the city lord is named Zheng Gong, who is an acquired master, and there is also a congenital-level city guard general Wu Hui in the city.
I saw the gate of Tianshui City open, Zheng Gong and Wu Hui in front, followed by a group of civil and military officials in the city ready to surrender.
Since the battle of Central Plains City, the flame of King Cui's youngest son directly scared the Great Lie Royal Court and the other three domains.
Rumors of immortals in the Cui clan have also spread in various places. Along the way from Central Plains City to the capital of the dynasty, the city lords of the major cities began to sway in this war, and the secret letters from the major city lords' mansions to and from the Cui family's camp were like snowflakes every day.
Seeing the rumors of the "immortals" intensifying, Cui Xiong did not directly announce the identity of his son as an immortal cultivator to the world, but pretended to be mysterious, and at the same time took advantage of the opportunity of the Central Plains City to attack the Wei camp in three ways.
The Central Route Army, led by Cui Xiong and Zhang Yu, directly took the Wei capital from the middle offensive route, with a total of 100,000 horses.
The Southern Route Army was led by two generals, Mo Xun and Zhao Shui, to attack the cities of the Southern Regions, and at the same time, Grandmaster Wang was used to contain the Nanling Feiyu Army.
Not long after the Central Plains City was broken, the female grandmaster surnamed Wang stumbled back to Snow Dragon City, and after throwing a burden in her hand to the people stationed in Snow Dragon City, she said: "Give it to you Cui Wangye, and say that the little girl is fortunate not to be dishonored." Then he went back to his room and went into retreat.
Cui Xiong, who was in charge of the aftermath of the front, saw the items in the baggage, and held a banquet regardless of his physical injuries, it turned out that what was in the baggage was a head, which was the person who stopped Grandmaster Wang that day, and this person was the patron saint of the Wei family's capital, the great martial arts master Wei Kang.
The two great masters of the Wei clan were both killed in this battle, how could this not make Cui Xiong happy.
The last Northern Route Army was led by Cui Xiong's uncle Cui Wei, assisted by Wang Jian and Wang Long, who led 80,000 horses to attack the leaderless Beiyuan army and the chaotic Northern Regions.
Since the movement of the Cui family's three-way army, all the big cities under the city, if the commander belongs to the Wei family, they will resist to the death, and the others will symbolically resist and surrender.
Tianshui City is just a corner of the Cui clan's offensive.
In just three months, forty great cities were either surrendered or defeated by the iron hooves of Cui's army.

Cui Ning was still carefully observing the Donghuang Bell, and suddenly his mind was attracted by the pattern in a corner of the bell body. This is a dragon-like pattern, and there are many other beast patterns next to it, but this dragon-like pattern is a little brighter than the surrounding one.
What kind of monster is this, like a dragon, with a head with two horns, eyes with two pupils, but a mouth like a python.
"This, isn't this an enlarged version of the Bilin Snake!"
As soon as Cui Ning's hand touched the pattern, the Bilin snake that almost made him suffer a big loss flashed in his mind.
"The Emerald Scale Dragon Python, an ancient xenomorph, has Emerald Scale Poison, Death Gaze and Scale Dragon Step, which is the best in the world, and is currently extinct."
Just when Cui Ning was stunned, a line of information appeared in Cui Ning's sea of knowledge.
"Emerald Scale Dragon Python! It's scary to hear the name, but what does this have to do with the Bilin snake.
Could it be because of the bloodline, some demon beasts have the blood of ancient beasts, and these patterns can be activated by absorbing their souls. Cui Ning made a guess based on his knowledge.
"But if I want to prove my idea, I'll have to look for a look. I don't know what will happen when the patterns of the bell are lit up. ”
After thinking for a while, Cui Ning put aside the thoughts in his mind and began to observe the other patterns, preparing to memorize them before leaving, so that he could verify his ideas in the future.
"Huh" Cui Ning appeared next to the original stream again.
"I see!"
Feeling the depletion of his spiritual power, Cui Ning finally found a way to enter and exit the foggy space of the Eastern Emperor Bell.
It turned out that when Cui Ning was observing and remembering those ancient beast patterns, the power of spiritual sense was also rapidly consumed, and when there were about forty patterns left, Cui Ning's spiritual power had been consumed, and then it appeared in place.
The power of spiritual sense is a powerful weapon for immortal cultivators to explore their surroundings, and it is impossible for Cui Ning to put himself in danger, so he hurries up to cultivate.
And Cui Ning also magically found that under such spiritual sense consumption, the power of spiritual consciousness became a little stronger than before. So after the power of spiritual consciousness was partially restored, he tried to enter the space of the Eastern Emperor Bell, and after recording the remaining patterns, he used spiritual sense to explore the body of the bell. After the spiritual sense was exhausted, he appeared by the stream again.
"The space of the Eastern Emperor Bell is really amazing, and we have to explore it well in the future."
Cui Ning tried to double the sensing range of the spiritual sense, and then flew out in one direction with a smile.

Just in the entire Dalie Dynasty, everyone thought that after the Wei royal family maintained its last dignity, it would definitely abdicate and make way for Xian.
However, to everyone's surprise, Wang Ting did nothing except for the Central Plains City Po sent a few spies to investigate.
In this way, after watching King Cui attack the city and take most of the territory, the three-way army converged under the capital of Dalie, Weidu.
The storm is coming, and the war will be imminent.
