Chapter 33: Germination
The forbidden land, a layer of caves.
The colorful tiger was still asleep, Sun Hu was lying on the ground with a pale face, frowning and falling asleep, while Wang Zhi was still meditating and cultivating, and the blood stains on his body had formed a blood scab.
At this time, the aura accumulated in Wang Zhi's body had reached its peak, and the meridians in his body were already overwhelmed, and he was unable to transport more spiritual qi.
Zhou Tian, who was cultivating qi, gradually slowed down, and the aura storm around Wang Zhi's body had begun to disappear, and those bloodthirsty bats seemed to be aware of this, and let out a piercing hiss.
It's finally this point!
Although Wang Zhi didn't open his eyes, with the determined look on his face, it could be seen that he had made a certain decision.
Soon, an extremely pure aura slipped out of the stomach and fell into the dantian.
This aura can no longer even be regarded as a completely dead thing, a large amount of aura gathered together is likely to form heaven and earth spirits, and a very small number of these heaven and earth spirits may give birth to their own spirits, which are called innate spirits.
At this time, the aura that had just condensed in Wang Zhi's body was naturally not a heaven and earth spiritual thing, and it was impossible for him to have his own consciousness, but his shape was like a swimming fish, and although he had no spiritual intelligence, he already had some kind of instinct.
Perhaps sensing some kind of threat, it wandered through the pitch-black dantian, and whenever it approached the only place of light, where the spirit seed was, it would always change its direction to avoid it.
Like an ignorant beast that encounters a predator, it runs away.
Wang Zhi couldn't do anything about it, but since this aura had already entered the dantian, he wasn't afraid that it would escape, and it would be a matter of time before it was absorbed by the spirit seed.
It's just that Wang Zhi seems to have forgotten one thing, that is, he is in crisis at this time.
The aura storm relied on the aura to exist, and after Wang Zhi no longer absorbed the aura around him, the scale and power of the storm were visibly decreasing with the naked eye.
"Whoosh!"
A blood-eyed bat rushed forward with courage, but the storm still had its strength left, and the blood-eyed bat was quickly torn apart and scattered into the pitch-black abyss, turning into food for its kind.
The rest of the bats saw their fellow creatures being torn to shreds, and the aftermath of the aura storm was still there, so they hadn't made a rash move, but as the storm faded away, they probably wouldn't have waited long.
Their scarlet, bloody eyes radiated a bloodthirsty glow, and the impulse of a beast constantly urged them to rush into the caverns, where there was delicious blood and fragile prey.
They're waiting for a killing!
At this time, the aura swimming fish in Wang Zhi's dantian was constantly circling around the spirit seed.
Perhaps it was the spirit seed's immobility that made it relax its vigilance, or perhaps it was the singularity of the environment in the dantian that made it have great curiosity about the spirit seed, so it began to tentatively come forward to make contact.
One time, two times...... The aura swimming fish gradually grew bolder, and the strength of hitting the spirit seed slowly increased.
It's just that as a unique product of Qi cultivation, the characteristic of the spirit seed is that it cannot absorb too much spiritual energy at one time.
Moreover, after the transformation of the nameless spell, the spirit seed has begun to automatically repel the excess aura into it.
As a result, the repeated impacts of the aura swimming fish not only did not cause it to enter the spirit seed, but even flew upside down in a rather violent impact.
Wang Zhi watched it fly far away, and silently felt a sense of lovelessness in his heart.
As if enraged by the spirit seed, the aura swimming fish began to launch the most violent attack on it so far.
I saw that it had differentiated into two clones, and together with its body, a total of three identical aura swimming fish were attacking the spirit seed without interruption.
It's just that as they hit again and again, the aura luster on their bodies obviously dimmed a lot, but they didn't seem to be aware of this, and they still crashed into the spirit seed with great energy.
On the other hand, the spirit seed has experienced so many attacks, but it is as solid as a rock, firmly rooted in the middle of the dantian, and even ...... Seems to be a little brighter?
Wang Zhi began to have some doubts, no matter how you look at those attacks, it is already a blessing that the spirit seed did not suffer any damage, but such a change really made him scratch his head.
Wang Zhi, who did not believe in evil, stared at the spirit seed, and after several attacks by the spirit fish, he finally understood what was going on.
It turns out that every time a swimming fish hits the spirit seed, a little luster will splash out from the swimming fish's body, and this luster is quickly absorbed by the spirit seed, like rain and dew that nourishes the seeds.
At this moment, a sense of enlightenment permeated Wang Zhi's heart, but there was always an invisible barrier in front of him.
This is the bottleneck of breaking through the third layer of gas refining.
In the dark, Wang Zhi had such a feeling.
At the same time, he had a deeper understanding of the Qi Cultivation Technique, which is the popular technique of the Imperial Sword Sect.
The so-called qi cultivation recipe is to plant the aura in the dantian, just like cultivating the most ordinary seeds in the world, and irrigate the nutrients it needs to make it grow.
Since this is the case, he only needs to wait for it to absorb these pure spiritual qi, and naturally, this spiritual seed will grow to the next level, that is, to break through the third level of qi refining.
It's just that this should have been a natural thing, but it was not an acceptable thing for Wang Zhi.
Because the spiritual species in the dantian were methodically absorbing the aura light emitted by the spiritual energy swimming fish, Wang Zhi was also able to observe the situation outside.
In his mind, the aura storm had begun to crumble, and countless hungry blood-eyed bats outside were waiting for the moment when the storm disappeared and rushed in to feast.
Time!
I don't have time anymore!
After realizing this, Wang Zhi decided to intervene in the process within the dantian.
The three aura swimming fish were still sacrificing their lives and constantly attacking the spirit seed, and more points of light began to emanate from their bodies, which were absorbed by the spirit seed, making the spirit seed grow again.
Originally, this process had stabilized, and as long as he waited for the day when it blossomed and fruited, he could smoothly enter the third layer of Qi refining.
But for Wang Zhi, this speed is still too slow, and he needs to add a little fierce material.
When the divine mind entered the dantian, the original aura swimming fish was too powerful, and Wang Zhi couldn't control it.
But now that its power had split into three, it gave him a chance to take advantage of it.
Wang Zhi's divine thoughts focused on a spiritual qi swimming fish that had just hit the spirit seed and was already quite dim, compared to the other two, this one could be said to be the weakest.
Even so, it took a lot of effort for Wang Zhi to subdue it, and there was almost nothing left of his divine thoughts, and he finally controlled this aura swimming fish.
I saw that this little fish changed from dull to agile, and no longer blindly crashed into the spirit seed, but quietly followed behind the other two swimming fish.
The moment one of the swimming fish was bounced off after crashing into the spirit seed, the swimming fish controlled by Wang Zhi jumped up and bit its body fiercely.
A huge gap appeared in the swimming fish's body, and at the same time, it also became angry, and turned to bite the swimming fish controlled by Wang Zhi.
The battle between the two fish quickly attracted the attention of the swimming fish who was out of the way, and it was inevitably drawn to join the battle circle.
The swimming fish controlled by Wang Zhi had a great advantage over the other two, not only because it seized the opportunity, but also because his manipulation made its body more agile, and it could always exchange the least loss for the maximum damage in each mutual bite.
It's just that two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and the swimming fish controlled by Wang Zhi are always overstretched under the attacks of the other two, and gradually, the three swimming fish are becoming more and more broken, and there are more and more light spots floating in the dantian.
And the spirit seed rooted in the middle of the dantian is not rejecting these points of light, constantly absorbing them, and growing little by little.
Finally, when the three swimming fish disappeared and turned into a flood of spiritual energy, the spirit seed suddenly burst out with a strong suction, absorbing all the light points in one go.
At this moment, Wang Zhi's originally depleted divine thoughts were suddenly replenished, and he had expected something.
Sure enough, the spirit seed began to change after absorbing a large number of aura points.
An undetectable clicking sound sounded, and a third crack began to appear on the spirit seed, and as the clicking sound continued to sound, this crack began to spread upward from the bottom of the spirit seed, all the way to the top of the spirit seed.
Just when Wang Zhi felt that everything was over, a touch of emerald green light suddenly shone on the top of the spirit seed.
I saw a small bud breaking through the outermost seed coat of the spirit seed, extending a little from the confluence of the three cracks, and it was foreseeable that there were more parts buried inside the spirit seed.
Seeing this scene, Wang Zhi couldn't help but have a very disillusioned feeling, this qi cultivation recipe is really a seed germination!
At this time, most of the aura storm around Wang Zhisun Hu had disappeared, and more and more blood-eyed bats could not resist the temptation of delicious blood food and pounced on them.
At this time, the aura storm could no longer cause any effective damage to them, just throwing them out, and it could no longer form an effective deterrent.
Countless piercing screams rang out, layers of black curtains enveloping Wang Zhi and them layer by layer, and the snow-white fangs were already showing, just waiting to cut through their fragile bodies.
"Small ......"
Sun Hu, who had been in a coma for a long time, woke up slowly, saw Wang Zhi, who was still closed, and saw the black shadows that were faintly visible outside the storm, gritted his teeth to support his body, and protected Wang Zhi in front of him regardless of the dizziness in front of him.
The sleeping colorful tiger had also woken up at some point, stood beside Sun Hu, and rubbed his trembling palm.
"Brother Tiger, I know you can understand me. If I can't stop it later, please take Xiaozhi and escape. I know, you have to find a way to live here, right?"
Sun Hu said with a serious face, but the colorful tiger was noncommittal, his eyes did not stay on Sun Hu and Wang Zhi, but looked at the abyss outside.
The corners of Sun Hu's pale mouth were raised, he smiled bitterly, picked up the basket he had just thrown away from the ground, resisted the urge to faint, and stayed in front of Wang Zhi.
Seeing that the storm had thinned out, and there was even a blood-eyed bat that had just rushed in half of its body, but it was thrown out again, Sun Hu knew that the time for the storm to be broken through was near.
Sun Hu didn't know how this storm was formed, but thanks to it, they were able to hold on until now.
And now that this only barrier is no longer reliable, then he will become the next barrier to protect the thoughtfulness of the junior disciples behind him.
Hearing a terrible scream, a blood-eyed bat broke through the storm and got in, but was knocked out by Sun Hu.
But then, more blood-eyed bats flew in, and Sun Hu's shaking body could only fall under their impact, and a strange light flashed in the eyes of the colorful tigers on the side.
Xiaozhi, I'm sorry, I can't protect you.
At the last moment of depression, Sun Hu's heart flashed with such a sentence.
Just as countless blood-eyed bats pounced on Sun Hu's body and wanted to suck the remaining blood, a strong aura emanated from Wang Zhi's body, and the powerful wind pressure directly swept these blood-eyed bats away.
He, wake up.
