The entrance to the secret realm of Shu Mountain appears in the middle of the vast canyon of the two peaks, with a wide view and flat terrain directly in front of the entrance, with few plants growing, while behind it and to the left and right are tall and dense shrubs.

The bushes were covered with all sorts of purple and red flowers, the largest ones taller than adults and the smallest ones the size of fists, so bright that people were afraid to approach them.

In addition, many of the ground also grew with metallic thorn vines, and the thorns on some of the thick vines looked sharper than daggers, exuding a cold glow.

Flowers, thorn vines and all kinds of strangely shaped plants crisscross and meander and twist, as if forming a natural giant net, covering the back of the secret realm, giving people a very dangerous atmosphere in the quiet atmosphere of the canyon.

The front of the entrance to the secret realm was not completely covered by spiritual mist, and there was naturally no barricade in the place where there was no spiritual mist, so Yan Ran came to the bushes very smoothly.

The patrolling warriors saw that she had not entered the spiritual mist covered area, so they ignored her.

"Whew~"

Yan Ran stood in front of the bushes and took a deep breath, instantly feeling indescribable comfort and satisfaction in his body.

"What a pure aura!" Yan Ran looked at the bushes with fiery eyes.

After coming to the entrance of the secret realm, what attracted her the most was not the spiritual mist protected by the Dao Alliance, but the bushes in front of her.

There was an aura in the bushes that was purer than the spiritual mist.

"Zizi~"

When a fist-sized bee flew by, it accidentally touched a bright red light, and in an instant, the safflower secreted a lot of red sap, which directly corroded the bee, and there was not even a bit of bone residue left.

Seeing this, Yan Ran's expression changed, the venom of this flower is so poisonous!

"I'm afraid those thorn vines are also highly poisonous!" Yan Ran glanced at the sharp thorns on the thorn vines, "No wonder no one is coming here." "I guess I'm afraid of these poisonous flowers and thorn vines.

Yan Ran looked around at the nearby monks, and seeing that no one noticed this, he quickly approached the bushes and walked straight towards the place that exuded a faint and pure aura.

The reason why Yan Ran dared to walk over so boldly was entirely because of the absorption of the Star Glowgrass that could break through ten thousand poisons, and the poisonous flower stingers in the bushes could not hurt her at all.

At this time, if anyone notices Yan Ran's behavior, they will definitely think that she is crazy, how can anyone fall headlong into the poisonous flower stinger.

The space shook for a while, and when Yan Ran reacted, he appeared in another fog-shrouded space with visibility of only a few tens of meters.

"Who?"

"Yan Ran!"

Two vigilant and surprised voices rang out at the same time, a man and a woman.

"It's you!"

Looking at Du Lingling and the four people who were holding weapons more than ten meters away, looking vigilant, ready to attack at any time, Yan Ran also looked a little surprised, she didn't expect that someone else would come to this place.

You must know that this place has not even been discovered by the Dao Alliance!

The reason why she came here was because of her sensitivity to aura, and the pure aura emanating from the bushes was very weak, and it was difficult for ordinary people to detect it.

"Yan Ran, why didn't you absorb the spiritual mist at the entrance of the secret realm?" Du Lingling was stunned for a moment, then immediately put away the weapon in her hand and walked towards Yan Ran with a smile.

"The people of the Dao Alliance will not let them in. Yan Ran glanced at the other three who were still looking at her vigilantly, and replied with a smile.

"Also, the spiritual mist that seeps out of the secret realm absorbs a little less, so they naturally have to take care of their own monks first. ”

When a monk cultivates, the purer the aura, the faster it can be absorbed.

The spiritual mist that seeped out of the entrance of the secret realm was very pure, allowing the monk to quickly improve his cultivation strength in a short period of time.

"What about you, why are you here?"

"Uh... Du Lingling looked stunned, a little didn't know how to answer, she didn't want to deceive people, but the truth was hard to say...

Just when Du Lingling hesitated, Du Yufei spoke, "We also came here unintentionally because we couldn't absorb the spiritual mist, so we had nothing to do for a while." ”

Hearing this, Yan Ran raised his eyebrows, this answer should not be too perfunctory, glanced at Du Lingling, who looked embarrassed and embarrassed, and didn't ask more.

It seems that after the great changes in the world, there are really a lot of people who are lucky.

"By the way, Yan Ran, how did you get here?" Du Lingling looked at Yan Ran curiously.

"Just like you!" Yan Ran smiled, said casually, and then began to look at the space.

Seeing that Yan Ran began to explore the space, Du Yufei and the three of them moved their bodies without any traces, as if they were hiding something.

Yan Ran had a full view of their small movements, and as soon as she entered this space, she sent out her divine sense, and the egg-sized hole behind Du Yufei and the three of them naturally couldn't hide it from her.

Above the hole, a milky white substance the thickness of a little finger and more than a meter long, like smoke rising from the burning of incense, was swaying.

When he saw the milky white substance, Yan Ran's eyeholes shrank suddenly, and the aura emitted by that thing was too strong.

When she was separated from Du Lingling and the four of them, she remembered that their cultivation should only be in the early stage of foundation building, but now, the cultivation of these four people has reached the middle stage of foundation building, and the aura emanating from Du Lingling's body is not weaker than the crocodile beast she encountered in the underground river, which means that she is likely to have advanced to the late stage of foundation building.

This shows how amazing the aura contained in that milky white substance is.

Pulling her eyes away with difficulty, Yan Ran quickly turned her attention to other places in the space, the small hole had obviously been occupied by Du Lingling and the four of them, and if she wanted to absorb the milky white substance, she had to find another small hole again.

Seeing Yan Ran walking towards the other end of the space, Du Lingling was a little speechless and stopped.

"Lingling, let's absorb it quickly, this spiritual eye is getting smaller and smaller. Du Yufei opened his mouth and said, since they came in and found the spirit eye, the spirit eye has been shrinking, and the floating spirit essence on the spirit eye is also rapidly becoming smaller.

"We won't be able to absorb this spiritual essence anyway, why don't we ask Yan Ran to come over and absorb it together?" Du Lingling asked tentatively.

"Lingling, the fact that she can come here shows that her fate is no worse than yours, so don't worry about it. Ma Siyuan pulled Du Lingling over, quickly took out a formation plate, and arranged it around the spiritual eye.

"But there's only one Spiritual Eye here. ”

"Even so, the aura inside here is so rich, it is no worse than the aura mist outside, and it is enough for her to cultivate. ”

"Alright, Lingling, let's continue to absorb it!"

------

On the other side, Yan Ran hurriedly walked in this space where the aura was so thick that it was about to liquefy, allowing the pores on his body to open, frantically absorbing the pure aura in the air.

"The spiritual mist in this place is much thicker than the one that seeps out of the entrance of the secret realm!" Yan Ran sighed as he explored.

The space was small, about the size of a stadium, and there was nothing in it, except the ground, and the white fog above and around the edges of the head.

Yan Ran touched the edge of the white mist with his hand, and found that he couldn't go deep into the white mist, and there seemed to be a barrier in the white mist.

After exploring the space and making sure that there were no other creatures or dangers except for her and Du Lingling, Yan Ran put his mind at ease and quickly walked towards a place with dense spiritual mist.

Without it, there was also a small hole, the size of a fist, and a milky substance floating on it the thickness of a thumb.

Looking at the milky white substance in front of him, Yan Ran put down the urgency in his heart, and quickly arranged the Bagua Talisman Array around, and then meditated cross-legged and started to open up the sea.

"Boom~"

As soon as the Bihai Duel started, the spiritual essence in front of Yan Ran began to shake violently, and the spiritual mist around him also changed sharply, quickly forming a vortex, surging towards Yan Ran's body frantically.

At this time, Yan Ran realized how fast he could absorb the Pure Spiritual Qi and improve his cultivation.

When the monk usually cultivates, he absorbs the aura between heaven and earth, and these aura is mixed with many other breaths, and because of the existence of these breaths, the speed at which the monk absorbs the aura slows down.

This is also the reason why cultivating with spirit stones is faster than directly meditating and cultivating, because the spiritual energy in spirit stones is much purer.

Now that I think about it, I can understand why the Dao Alliance guards the entrance of the secret realm like that.

The spiritual mist at the entrance of the secret realm is pure, and one day of cultivation there is worth ten days and half a month of cultivation in ordinary times, or even more.

The endless stream of spiritual energy was inhaled into Yan Ran's body, quickly divided into three, refining the physical body, nourishing and expanding the sea of knowledge, nourishing the primordial spirit, and merging into the sea of dantian qi.

At this time, Yan Ran's dantian qi sea continued to expand outward, as vast as the sea, and the sound of "click" continued to be heard in the dantian, and the barrier that had been blocking her from advancing to build the foundation was rapidly cracking.

Yan Ran's big movement on this side attracted Du Lingling and the four people on the other side to look at it one after another.

Yan Ran seemed to have found a spiritual eye again. Du Lingling said with a stunned expression.

"How is it possible?" Du Feiyu and the three of them looked surprised, when they came in, they rummaged through this space several times, and only found this one spiritual eye in front of them.

"What is she doing?" The three of them are not like Du Lingling, who is not yet able to release their divine sense, Yan Ran is a little far away from them, and there is a spiritual mist in the middle, so they can't look at the situation on the other side at all.

Now the spiritual mist in the entire space was surging towards Yan Ran, and the visibility seemed to have increased a little.

"She looks like she's going to advance!"

"Advanced?

Du Lingling glanced at Du Yufei angrily, "Yan Ran was still a Qi cultivator before, so he naturally advanced to build a foundation." ”

"It takes so much aura to build a foundation in an advanced way?" Du Yufei and the three of them looked at Du Lingling with a look on their faces, don't be joking.

Du Lingling ignored the three of them and muttered to herself, "The amount of aura she needs is a bit excessive." ”

"Oh, leave her alone, the spirit eye and spirit essence are getting smaller rapidly, and we won't have time to absorb it!" Ma Siyuan exclaimed, just now they were just looking at the situation on Yan Ran's side, but they didn't find that the spirit essence was actually half smaller.

The four of them couldn't take care of Yan Ran anymore, and began to frantically absorb the spiritual essence.

"Click!"

As soon as the barrier of the advanced foundation building broke, the surrounding aura swarmed in, quickly sweeping towards Yan Ran, and in an instant, the rich aura filled her limbs, eight veins, and five internal organs, constantly refining it.

When the spiritual mist in the space was about to disappear completely, Yan Ran opened her eyes, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she was startled, and outside the rune array, Du Lingling and the four of them were looking at her dumbfounded.

Du Lingling and the four of them were also startled by the light of Yan Ran's eyes that bloomed the moment they opened their eyes, and involuntarily retreated.

"Yan Ran, congratulations, you have successfully built the foundation and officially stepped into the path of cultivation. Du Lingling was the first to react and said to Yan Ran with a smile.

"Thank you. ”
