Altar baptism

In the Sumeru space, a slightly faint figure is standing in front of the mirror, and behind the figure is a portrait suspended, but the portrait is currently empty.

"Yes, being able to trigger the state of unity between heaven and man in this situation, little guy, you really opened my eyes!"

Through the mirror, Venerable Covered Cloud saw Shi Jiu in the depths of the ancestral pool, and the state that the other party was in now and the aura that it exuded was the legendary unity of heaven and man.

In this state, the cultivator can maximize the comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth, and the thinking and perception will be at the highest level, which can accelerate the cultivator's understanding and deepening of the various martial arts secrets learned, and can achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, it is very difficult for cultivators to enter such a state on their own, and under normal circumstances, only after successfully surviving the Heavenly Tribulation, will the cultivator have the opportunity to enter that short-term state of unity between heaven and man.

Therefore, Shi Jiu was able to enter the state of unity of heaven and man in such an environment, which really surprised and surprised Venerable Covering Clouds.

"Huh? Even operated the Northern Breathing Method on its own? Little one, you've surprised me a lot! Venerable Cloud Covering smiled slightly.

At this time, Shi Jiu's breathing was extremely regular, his chest was expanding and contracting at a specific frequency, and there was even a surging sound like ten thousand horses galloping from it, fortunately, the blood-colored liquid shielding effect in the ancestral pool was good, otherwise it would inevitably be heard by the eleven people above the other side.

The pores of Shi Jiu's whole body were opened, accepting and absorbing the pure energy in the surrounding blood-colored liquid, and the accompanying fire poison was repelled from it. In this way, while the Northern Darkness Breathing Method was helping Shi Jiu absorb the energy in the ancestral pool, it was also slowly repairing his damaged skin, and everything was changing for the better.

People in cultivation tend to ignore time, and Shi Jiu is no exception.

Unconsciously, a day has passed, and the body that was eroded by the fire poison before has now been completely recovered, or even better, and his aura is obviously stronger than before, and he has come to the late stage of the Strength Realm, but he is still immersed in that special state of unity between heaven and man, and he is not aware of his own condition.

Above him on the other side, two of the eleven fallen elves who entered the ancestral pool for baptism this time had already opened their eyes first, and then swam towards the pool above with satisfaction, and after leaving the ancestral pool, they came to the side of the great elder, and then saluted respectfully.

"Well, the aura has become a lot stronger, the peak of the late stage of the Strength Realm, and with more effort after going back, you should be able to advance to the Central Realm within half a year." The Great Elder looked at the two young clansmen in front of him and nodded.

Among the eleven people who entered the ancestral pool baptism this time, five of them were cultivators of the Strength Realm, and the other six were in the Central Realm, if nothing else, the first to come out would be the five clansmen of the Strength Realm who had cultivated to the weaker level, and then it would be the turn of the other six Pivot Realms.

In fact, after the first two clansmen from the Strength Realm came out, in the following hour, the other three clansmen from the Strength Realm also came out one after another, and everyone got benefits from the ancestral pool, and their breath became stronger.

After these five clansmen of the Strength Realm left, the Great Elder entered a semi-cultivation state again, and the ancestral altar once again returned to its previous coldness.

Soon, another hour passed, and in the depths of the ancestral pool, Shi Jiu, who had been in a state of unity between heaven and man before, slowly opened his eyes.

The surroundings were still blood-red, but they were no longer as hot and unbearable as they had felt before.

Shi Jiu looked at his body, and the next moment he was pleasantly surprised to find that his previously dilapidated body had now completely healed, and then subconsciously clenched his fists.

"Not only has my body recovered, but even my strength has become stronger."

Then Shi Jiu calmed down, feeling the changes in himself in an all-round way, and after a while, he showed a bright smile with satisfaction.

"I didn't expect the effect of this altar baptism to be so good, no wonder the fallen elves are no longer open to the public."

With the feeling just now, Shi Jiu found that his cultivation had come from the middle stage of the Strength Realm to the late stage, and the realm had improved by a small level, and it was not far from the Central Realm.

Of course, what made him happy was not only the improvement of his cultivation, but also the soul practice of immersing himself in various martial arts in his special state before, which gave him a deeper understanding and understanding of the various martial arts he had learned.

Then, Shi Jiu looked up in the direction of the other side, and at the same time, his divine sense slowly swept towards the direction he could see, but after extending to a range of five meters, he could no longer move an inch.

"This blood-colored liquid can weaken the perception of divine consciousness."

The change in divine consciousness let Shi Jiu know the reason for the first time, but he was not too disappointed, Zu Chi was able to weaken his divine sense, which was also beneficial to him, at least it was not easy for people outside to rely on divine consciousness to perceive his existence.

With a rare opportunity, Shi Jiu was no longer distracted, and began to operate the Northern Darkness Breathing Method, concentrating on absorbing the pure energy in the surrounding blood-colored liquid.

As his cultivation and strength became stronger, Shi Jiu was no longer satisfied with the current speed of absorbing energy.

An hour later, Shi Jiu paused his absorption.

"The energy content here is not as abundant as before, so we have to change places."

The surrounding blood-colored liquid is no longer as bright red as before, and the energy contained in it is less than thirty percent of what it was a day ago, although it can still be absorbed, it is far from satisfying Shi Jiu's current appetite, and he must change to a position full of energy.

With a thought in his mind, Shi Jiu subconsciously looked at the bottom of his feet, where was the deeper part of the ancestral pool, and the energy inside was obviously more abundant.

Without hesitation, Shi Jiu immediately swam deeper below.

The further down, the surrounding blood-colored liquid became darker, from bright red at the beginning, to bright red later, and then crimson, and the energy contained in it was also more refined and abundant, and the pressure on Shi Jiu also increased.

I don't know how deep he dived, Shi Jiu finally stopped and continued his pace, the pressure here was already extremely strong, approaching his limit, the surroundings were already crimson, and the temperature was terrifyingly high.

"That's it, I can't stand it any further."

Shi Jiu ran the Northern Darkness Breathing Method, and began to absorb the energy in the surrounding blood-colored liquid, and suddenly a stream of pure energy with a density of more than ten times that of before frantically surged into his whole body, stimulating him to vent loudly, but he held back.

The fire poison here is several times stronger than the one above, but fortunately, Shi Jiu had resistance before, although it failed to erode his skin, but the scorching heat it carried still made his skin red.

The ultra-high pressure coupled with the scorching heat of the fire poison made him miserable again, even if Shi Jiu withstood it, but his own confrontation consumption was also extremely large, thanks to the energy here was rich and pure enough, while making up for the huge consumption, there were still many of them to enhance his physique after being absorbed.

In the second half of the night, Shi Jiu gradually adapted to the high pressure and high temperature environment here, and his own consumption was also greatly reduced, so that most of the energy absorbed was enhanced in physique and strength, and his breath was also rising, approaching the peak of the late stage of the Strength Realm.

At this moment, above the ancestral pool, there are still two fallen elves still absorbing the surrounding energy, and these are also the two strongest fallen elves who participated in the baptism this time, the original strength has reached the middle and late stages of the central realm, and now it is already the peak of the late stage, and it is a line away from the Linghui realm, and the position of these two people is also much deeper than at the beginning, and Shi Jiu's position is not very far away, about more than ten meters away, due to the blood-colored liquid shielding effect, both sides are not aware of each other's existence, Each of them absorbs the energy around them without incident.

At dawn on the third day, one of the remaining two elves also left the ancestral pool, leaving only Shi Jiu and the last elven clansman.

Half an hour later, Shi Jiu also stopped absorbing.

Two days of continuous absorption has saturated his body, and what is needed now is thorough digestion and absorption.

Shi Jiu stood in the depths of the ancestral pool of the fallen elf clan, and his eyes were crimson as far as he could see.

"It's almost time to leave."

In the ancestral pool of the fallen elves, he has already received great benefits, and it is indeed time for him to leave, in addition to the more important things he has to do, that is, to intercept a section of golden sandwood, and then leave safely.
