Chapter 54: The Secret Realm
Blue sky, white clouds, dense forests, and gentle warm sun, as soon as Huan Yin stepped out of the teleportation array, he was shocked by the warm scene in front of him. He originally thought that the Trapped Demon Secret Realm should be like the Demon Domain, with monsters rampant and miasma all over the sky, but the current scene was really too different from what he imagined.
Huan Yin looked at the sunshine and narrowed his eyes, thinking that this Wu Zonglao's magical power was really unfathomable, and the secret realm created was not at all different from the outside world, and even the sun was as warm as the outside. There is a cloud in the book that "man will conquer the sky", and now it seems that if the cultivation is enough, it is not absolutely impossible to change the day.
Huan Yin retracted his gaze and took a deep breath, the abundant aura here made his whole body vibrate. Then he lifted his foot, bypassed a small blooming flower at his feet, and walked forward on the soft grass.
"Hey, isn't this light steel wood?" Huan Yin's eyes lit up as he looked at the inconspicuous bushes on the ground. He had seen this light steel wood on the light curtain transformed by the pillars of the Sword Pavilion platform, although it was wooden, it was harder than fine iron, and it was a good material for the immortal family to cast swords.
Huan Yin squatted down and wanted to dig out the light steel wood with a sword, but as soon as he squatted down, his eyes lit up again.
"Hah, heavy single leaf! How did I forget it. Huan Yin was overjoyed to see a bright silver leaf next to the light steel wood.
This heavy single leaf is a companion of light steel wood, the color is like metal, but it is herbaceous, because there is only one leaf, but it is extremely heavy, so it is called a heavy single leaf. This heavy single leaf is very rare, because light steel wood is rare, and this huge clump of light steel wood is accompanied by only one heavy single leaf.
Both heavy single-leaf and light steel wood play a role in making the sword stronger, but the effect of heavy single leaf is much stronger than that of light steel wood. A clever swordsmith only needs to integrate this small piece of heavy single leaf into an ordinary fairy sword, and the strength of the resulting sword will be much greater than the strength of the entire sword made of light steel and wood.
Qualified swordsmiths like to use light steel and wood as the main material, heavy single leaf as the auxiliary material, and then with some other materials to cast the sword, the resulting sword is extraordinarily strong, even if the monk at the peak of the ninth layer of condensation bombards this sword with all his strength, it cannot cause the slightest damage to it.
It was the first time he had seen such a companion casting material Huan Yin with his own eyes, he carefully observed for a while, and silently noted the growth characteristics of these two materials in his heart, and then carefully dug out the light steel wood and heavy single-leaf rooting soil with his sword and received it into the storage bag. Yi Huan didn't know how to use these two materials because of his current sword-forging attainment, but now that he had them, he could go back to the master and practice sword-casting with real objects.
After collecting the materials, Huan Yin stood up, patted the dirt on his hands, and walked forward again.
Along the way, Huan Yin was simply happy, and sword-casting materials with different textures, fineness, and effects abounded, although they were not a unique gem, but for him to be a low-level swordsmith in the condensation period, it was just right. Although there was no shortage of these materials in the Infinite Gate, with his previous status in the Infinite Gate, he could only find some wild materials in the mountains or go to the shops in the city to buy them.
In fact, not only are there a lot of sword casting materials in this secret realm, but alchemy materials can also be found everywhere, but Huan Yin has only occasionally seen some of Dan Dao in the classics in the pavilion, and he doesn't know much, so he doesn't recognize most of them. But thinking about it, Ye Wuwu, who doesn't know where he is now, must be like Huan Yin's general happiness in flowers, and he is excited to collect "materials".
Huan Yin walked to a hill, and he saw a bare flame stone on the grass at a glance, and his heart was excited again. This flame stone is a thing that can be used to fuel the fire in the furnace that can be used for sword forging and alchemy, and its effect is very powerful. Although a monk with advanced cultivation can use his own magic to turn into fire to refine the sword and forge a sword, for Huan Yin and his master Duan Yun, they can only rely on the furnace fire. On weekdays, in the pavilion, Duan Yun often failed to cast a sword because the fire was not strong enough and the temperature was not high enough.
Huan Yin rushed over and was about to put away the Zhuyan Stone, but he was already too excited, and he had long forgotten that this secret realm was still called "Trapped Demon". A giant python with a body length of three feet and the thickness of a bucket suddenly came out of the grass behind the stone, and bit down towards Huan Yin with a big mouth!
"Brush!" At the critical moment, Huan raised his hand because of the two strong wind techniques, and directly hit the giant python's mouth. The giant python took a bite of the strong wind, and its stomach suddenly bulged, and it flew out with a "bang".
Huan Yin exhaled, and his heart was so dangerous just now, if it weren't for the fact that the giant python only had the cultivation of the middle stage of the second layer of condensation, he would probably suffer under this sudden attack.
"It's too careless. Huan Yin stared at the giant python that flew out and muttered to himself.
Where did Huan Yin know, he just felt that it was dangerous in his heart, but the giant python was beaten inexplicably. Although it is a Dao animal, it is a spirit breed among animals after all, and it has its sanity. In the attack just now, it clearly felt that the opponent's cultivation was a little lower than its own, but at the beginning of the second layer of Qi Condensation, it suddenly launched an attack, where could the other party have half a way to resist. But what I never expected was that the other party not only resisted, but also directly blew himself away.
However, if you don't understand the things that are not understood, the beasts in the middle of the second layer of condensation will naturally not think deeply, if you can't beat them, just run, as a beast, you still have instincts.
After this attack, Huan Yin regained his spirits. Before, he unconsciously walked a long way from the edge of the secret realm to the center, and there had been no fierce beast attacks along the way, that was because the fierce beasts on the edge were all in the realm of the first layer of condensation, so naturally they would not take the initiative to run in front of a second-layer condensation monk to send him to death.
But now, he has gone deep into a section, and the cultivation of the fierce beasts that roamed in all directions has also risen to the appearance of the second layer of condensation, and the beasts saw that Huan was only in the early stage of the second layer of condensation, so they naturally showed their fangs.
Huan Yin's purpose is the center of the secret realm, and now that he is still on the edge, the ground is full of treasures, so isn't the harvest that the center can get more exciting? However, before that, he has to find a way to find worry-free, because Xuanyuan Zi said that the fierce beast in the center is probably in the appearance of the sixth layer of condensing qi, although he is the third in this martial arts, but he is not arrogant enough to challenge the fierce beast of the sixth layer of condensing qi.
On the next road, Huan Yin was repeatedly attacked by fierce beasts, although these fierce beasts of the second layer of condensation were all blown away by him, but it made him a little annoyed, thinking that his strange cultivation was really a headache. What he didn't know was that in fact, those fierce beasts that were blasted away by him hurt more than his head, thinking that this human being's cultivation was so high, but he had to suppress it to the point that it only looked like it was only at the beginning of the second layer of condensation, wasn't this teasing them?
"Yu Bing Vine!" Huan Yin walked for a while, and he was very surprised to see a piece of crystal blue rattan lying on the bare ground in front of him.
This Yu Bing Vine was a good material for forging swords, far from being comparable to the ones he had seen before. The sword forged from Yu Bing Vine is not only exceptionally strong, but also can make the sword have the attribute of ice, adding a cold force to the sword and sword qi, making it even more powerful.
However, according to the statement on the stone pillar in the Sword Pavilion, this Yu Ice Vine can only grow on the cliff of the extremely cold land, and now the warm sun is shining in this secret realm, and how can there be such a section of Yu Ice Vine on the bare stone ground in front of it?
Sure enough, Huan Yin fixed his eyes and saw that the Yu Bing vine was not inserted into the ground at all, where it grew here, but I don't know who put it on the ground.
Huan Yin thought of this, and did not act rashly, but hid in the grass on the side and watched quietly.
Sure enough, he had only been there for less than ten breaths, and a spirit fox with white fur and two tails came into view. This is a two-tailed young fox, cultivated to the early stage of the fourth layer of Qi Condensation, which is incompatible with the demon beasts of the second layer of Qi Condensation nearby. However, its cultivation is already very low among the multi-tailed spirit foxes. If there are three tails or four tails, it is no longer called the spirit fox, but the demon fox; if there are five tails or even six tails, then it is called the demon fox; if there are seven or eight tails, it is called the fairy fox, the fairy fox not only has the power to reach the sky, but also is good at all kinds of illusion techniques, even if it is the earth-shattering power of the seven spirits, I am afraid that it can only be avoided; as for the legendary nine-tailed sky fox, although there is a simple record in the classics, but it is said that this spirit species can only be seen occasionally in the heavenly realm.
After the two-tailed young fox appeared, his eyes kept patrolling around, and he cautiously leaned towards the section of Yubing vine on the ground. Obviously, this young fox, like Huan Yin, is very interested in this Yubing vine and wants to take it for himself.
When Huan Yin saw the appearance of this young fox, he had more questions in his heart, the appearance of this Yu Bing Vine was already strange, and now the appearance of this four-layer two-tailed spirit fox of condensation was even more strange. What's more, looking at the look and movements of this young fox, it is obviously very vigilant, but its cultivation should not be rampant in this vicinity?
"Someone brought it here?" Huan Yin quickly had a guess in his heart, thinking to himself if there was one of the other six people who came in with him nearby?
However, the two-tailed spirit fox didn't intend to give Huan Yin enough time to figure things out, and although it was cautious, it quickly approached Yu Bingteng.
Huan Yin saw that the young fox was about to succeed, and thought that it would be a pity if this treasure was given to the beast, if someone really lured him, he snatched Yu Bing Vine and then returned it, if Yu Bing Vine was the treasure of this place, then he would make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Huan Yin no longer hesitated, and suddenly rushed out, spanning a distance of more than ten zhang in an instant, and appeared in front of Linghu, blocking Yu Bingteng behind him.
The spirit fox was obviously taken aback, but its body was unexpectedly flexible, and before Huan Yin could stand still, the spirit fox had already rushed back quickly, much faster than Huan Yin.
Seeing that the spirit fox was about to disappear, suddenly a blue shadow fell from the sky, like a split, and directly cut off the way of the spirit fox, it seemed that it was going to intercept the spirit fox. However, the spirit fox's agility was obviously beyond the blue shadow's expectations, and its body changed direction in an instant, jumped forward, and disappeared into the grass without half a breath.
