An hour later, Qiao Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and the jade slip in his hand was also put into the storage bag by him, his eyes were full of solemnity, and he thought to himself secretly.

"Things are far from being as simple as they seem, four sects plus fifteen foreign sects, and many scattered cultivators, this Grass Spirit Valley is really a muddy water that can't be muddy anymore. ”

He shook his head slightly, a look of determination in his eyes.

Qiao Yuan thought of the words that Tie Mo had taught him before, the most important thing for a cultivator is to have a firm heart.

He had agreed to go to Grass Spirit Valley before, and it was impossible for him to regret it after learning about the dangers of Grass Spirit Valley, not to mention that this matter was related to Zhan Yao's life.

Zhan Yao is his life-saving benefactor, and in the past two months of getting along, he likes this simple and simple little girl very much.

Although this Grass Spirit Valley is full of crises, but the opportunity is also great, not to mention that this is the opportunity to tie the Dan, and the old man Zhan also promised to let him cultivate within a year to reach the consummation of Qi refining, in this case, Qiao Yuan really has no reason not to go to the Grass Spirit Valley to compete.

"Grandpa Zhan, I understand all this information clearly, can we start cultivating now?"

Qiao Yuan stood up, with a smile on his face, his eyes were bright and firm, and he said loudly to the old man Zhan, who was more than ten feet away.

Old man Zhan slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Qiao Yuan's firm gaze, an appreciative smile appeared on his face, and he raised his hand to the boulder under the waterfall and slowly spoke.

"You will be able to breathe on that boulder in the future, and this waterfall will help you in your cultivation, you already know this. But do you know why?"

"Is it because of the aura in the water?"

Qiao Yuan looked at the boulder under the waterfall, he thought of the call under the riverbed above the waterfall, thought for a while, and then said his thoughts, but he vaguely felt that this matter was not so simple.

Old man Zhan didn't show any surprise, he knew that Qiao Yuan must know more about the aura in this water than he did when he entered the realm of micro hearts. But he nodded, shook his head again, and spoke slowly.

"Yes and no. ”

Qiao Yuan showed a puzzled look on his face, but he didn't speak.

"The old man first discovered this place three hundred years ago. At that time, the old man was only a Jindan monk, and when he went out to practice, he came to this mountain forest, which was occupied by a group of spirit devouring fish, and the old man was invincible alone, so he could only retreat. ”

"More than a hundred years ago, the old man came here again after getting married, but he was still defeated, and when the old man came here again thirteen years ago, the spirit devouring fish here disappeared completely. ”

Old man Zhan's eyes showed a look of remembrance, and he said slowly.

Qiao Yuan heard the words "Spirit Devouring Fish", and immediately trembled. He knew about this spirit devouring fish from the "Ten Thousand Books of Spirit Beasts", and he was extremely impressed.

Spirit devouring fish is a kind of social demon beast, individual strength is not strong, but they have a tyrannical personality, no matter how strong the opponent is, they will also rush up, not afraid of death, so they are also extremely famous among demon beasts.

In addition to these, the most special thing about the Spirit Eater is its soul-devouring nature.

They will choose to live in a place where the aura is mixed, and then keep devouring the aura around them, and after a series of transformations, they will spew out the aura.

However, the aura they spit out is extremely pure, and it can be directly absorbed and refined by monks, so the spirit devouring fish is very popular with monks, but because of its gregarious nature and tyrannical nature, if you want to catch the spirit devouring fish, if you don't have a cultivation above the Yuan Infant, it is tantamount to looking for death.

"This Spirit Devouring Fish has survived here for hundreds of years, and the aura in the waterfall has reached a saturated state, and it is extremely pure, so you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort when you cultivate under the waterfall. ”

Old Man Zhan saw Qiao Yuan's strangeness, so he didn't explain the Spirit Devouring Fish to him, and continued directly.

"The reason why you are able to feel more aura is because you receive a lot of aura impact under the waterfall, which causes you to be more sensitive to the aura sense. ”

"But the old man didn't expect you to have such an effect in just one day, and you can also enter the realm of deep heart, or even completely enter the realm of micro mind, this is simply ......"

When Old Man Zhan talked about Qiao Yuan, he shook his head slowly, with an amazed smile on his face, and in the end, he couldn't think of any words to describe it.

"Grandpa Zhan praised it falsely, I don't know where this spirit devouring fish has gone?"

Qiao Yuan smiled embarrassedly, touched the back of his head, then looked at the waterhole under the waterfall and asked.

"I don't know, after the old man came here, he searched all over the area, and he didn't see half a spirit devouring fish. ”

Old man Zhan's eyes were also full of doubts, he shook his head and said slowly.

Qiao Yuan pondered for a while, and then remembered the call under the riverbed above the waterfall, he always felt that the disappearance of the Spirit Devouring Fish should have something to do with it, but now was not the time to observe.

He didn't plan to tell Old Man Zhan about this matter, after all, he didn't know whether this matter was good or bad, and now it was involved in the matter of the Spirit Devouring Fish, so he didn't dare to look at it recklessly, and after thinking about it again, he felt that this matter had to be handled carefully.

"Well, there's still a year to go, so let's wait and see what happens. ”

Qiao Yuan said something to himself in his heart, stood up directly, walked towards the waterfall, jumped up, and stood firmly on the boulder.

After more than a month of trials, this bit of water impact was nothing to him, Qiao Yuan sat cross-legged on the boulder, as if he had merged with the boulder, and he looked like a rock.

Old man Zhan stood up, walked directly to the top of the waterfall with one step, stood on the surface of the water, and shouted loudly to Qiao Yuan below.

"Xiaoyuan, hold on!"

After the old man finished speaking, he directly opened his hands, pressed towards the river on both sides, and then slowly closed it towards the middle.

Suddenly, the river seemed to be forcibly closed together by a pair of invisible hands, and the river, which was originally more than ten zhang wide, slowly converged into ten zhang wide, revealing the riverbed on both sides of the river, and there were many fish and shrimp struggling in the puddles.

After the old man cast a spell to close the river, the water level directly rose more than a foot high, and roared towards the bottom of the waterfall.

Qiao Yuan didn't understand when he heard Old Man Zhan's words, but suddenly he felt that the strength of the thousand catties in his body immediately increased to three thousand catties, and the sudden increase in the flow of water was like another mountain peak directly pressing on his body.

The first to be hit was his heavenly spirit, Qiao Yuan only felt dizzy, and the sound of roaring water seemed to be earth-shattering thunder lingering in his ears.

However, after three breaths, Qiao Yuan was about to bow his head unconsciously, but this head was only an inch lower, and the surging water flow directly pressed on his neck and backbone, making his body suddenly shake, and he immediately fell on the boulder.

Old man Zhan looked at Qiao Yuan who was lying on top of the boulder, and his eyes suddenly showed an anxious look, and as soon as his hand was loosened, the water flow of the waterfall was much smaller.

"No, if you can't even hold on to this, you will be sent to death in vain if you go to Grass Spirit Valley. ”

As the flow of water became smaller, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, Qiao Yuan forcibly stabilized his mind, his eyes showed a look of determination, and he said secretly in his heart.

Qiao Yuan mobilized his spiritual power to wander on the surface of his body, slowly straightened his body, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly.

"Grandpa Zhan, I'm ready, let's increase the current!"

When Old Man Zhan heard Qiao Yuan's words, a relieved smile appeared on his face, his hands tightened, and the flow of water suddenly doubled.

This stream of water was like a white dragon roaring down, and the roaring sound was like a dragon's roar, directly hitting Qiao Yuan's body.

Qiao Yuan's body shook suddenly, and he couldn't help but bow his head again, but his eyes were closed, and he gritted his teeth and withstood the first wave of attacks.

His mind has completely lost the ability to think, and he only relies on a tenacious will to forcibly support himself not to bow his head or fall down.

His face was distorted by the impact, and the muffled sound of his closed mouth was muffled, but it was muffled by the roaring water.

One breath, two breaths, five breaths, ten breaths, this insistence is a hundred breaths of time, but at the time of one hundred and twenty breaths, Qiao Yuan's last trace of consciousness was also wiped out, and he fainted directly and was washed into the deep pool by the current.

When the old man saw this scene, he immediately let go of his hands, raised his feet and stepped out, grabbing his right hand towards the deep pool, Qiao Yuan broke through the water directly and landed on the grass on the riverbank.

He no longer had any scruples at this time, he came directly to Qiao Yuan's side, took out a pill and fed it to Qiao Yuan, and then with a wave of his right hand, he took Qiao Yuan back to the bamboo house in an instant, and put Qiao Yuan on the bed.

"Yao'er, is there any hot soup?"

Old man Zhan walked out of the door and saw Zhan Yao sitting at the door, with a kind smile on his face and spoke.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with Big Brother Qiao?"

Zhan Yao saw Qiao Yuan lying on the bed outside the window, and asked with an anxious look on his face at this moment.

"It's okay, grandpa fed him medicine, just rest for a while, you can send him a bowl of hot soup, let him drink it when he wakes up." ”

Old man Zhan touched Zhan Yao's head and said in a kind tone.

After hearing this, the anxious look on Zhan Yao's face immediately faded, replaced with a happy smile, nodded and turned around and ran towards the stove room.

An hour later, Qiao Yuan woke up leisurely, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he felt a headache, as if he was about to explode.

"Brother Qiao, you're awake!"

Zhan Yao sat on the side and looked at Qiao Yuan all the time, and when he woke up, he immediately showed joy and shouted. Bai Yue also lay down beside him, and as soon as he opened his eyes, Bai Yue howled twice, jumped over and licked his face.

"Xiao Yao, I'...... How could I ......"

Qiao Yuan held his forehead with his right hand, with a confused look in his eyes, and said slowly.

"Grandpa brought you back, Brother Qiao, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Yuan shook his head, he only felt a mess in his brain now, and he had a feeling of dizziness, and he couldn't see clearly when he looked at Zhan Yao who was close in front of him.

"Brother Qiao, drink this bowl of hot soup. ”

Zhan Yao walked to the table and carefully brought a bowl of hot fish soup, handed it to Qiao Yuan, and said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

Qiao Yuan took the fish soup, and after drinking it, he felt much better. Slowly remembering that he was fainted by the waterfall when he was cultivating, he sat up and spit out on his knees, and Qiao Yuan suddenly showed joy.

Although this cultivation time was short and he suffered a lot, it had a great effect, and he was now able to perceive more aura when he breathed in, although the speed of absorbing aura did not increase, but it also greatly increased his confidence in cultivating to the perfection of qi cultivation within a year.
