Chapter 266: Trying to Cultivate the Phantom Mirage
Droplets as fine as dust slowly converged from the void in all directions along the thousands of roots that penetrated deep into the void and were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, ignoring the obstruction of the mountain peaks of the cave, and turned into a pea-sized crystal droplet in the secret room......
Mystical sprouts have endless roots that are difficult to discern with the naked eye, and these roots have the ability to penetrate deep into the void to grasp the starlight and moonlight, and they ignore any obstacles.
In the secret room, Xia Yin and Zhang Rouran stared at the dry and withered spirit wood roots on the ground, wrapped in countless pea-sized crystal droplets, and devoured these droplets at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As time slowly passed, the half-dried and withered spirit wood roots had absorbed a large number of crystal droplets.
However, this dry and withered root is like a bottomless pit, no matter how many droplets are absorbed, it still does not change in the slightest, and it remains the same.
If it was an ordinary elixir, it would have absorbed a large number of crystal droplets throughout the night, and it would have already turned into a centuries-old elixir.
However, this dry and molten spirit wood did not show the slightest change.
This made the disappointment on Xia Yin's face gradually thicken.
It seems that the mysterious sprouts are not omnipotent, they think too much.
When I bought this half of the root from the Deadwood Dojo, I hoped that the mysterious sprout would be able to exert a miraculous effect against the sky, resurrect this half of the dry tree root, and grow a complete Soul Melting Wood again.
Judging from the current situation, this idea of oneself is obviously in vain.
This situation lasted until the next morning, when a ray of morning light began to appear, the Starlight Moonlight began to gradually weaken, and the speed at which the mysterious shoots grabbed the Starlight Moonlight began to slow down......
Xia Yin couldn't help frowning slightly.
At this moment, Zhang Rouran, who was on the side, suddenly shouted in surprise: "Xia Yin, look, the color of this dead tree root has changed!"
Xia Yin looked intently, and sure enough, he found that the original withered yellow roots had changed color slightly, and began to have a trace of moisturizing light.
Xia Yin couldn't help but have a hint of surprise on his face.
"It seems to be working!"
Xia Yin stared at the dry tree roots that gradually changed color, and said in an excited voice: "As long as we continue to use the mysterious shoots to grasp the essence of the stars and moon, we should be able to resurrect this tree root!"
Zhang Rouran also nodded in surprise......
For the next five days, Xia Yin let the mysterious shoots grab the starlight and moonlight every night, and let the roots of the half-melted spirit wood continue to absorb them.
In the early morning of the fifth day, an exciting change finally appeared!
On the originally dry roots, a little bud quietly bloomed.
The roots of the Melting Spirit Wood Tree were indeed resurrected!
This scene made Xia Yin and Zhang Rouran extremely excited.
This is one of the three great sacred trees of ancient times!
Xia Yin also specially consulted the classics, it is said that this melting spirit wood can fuse any kind of law, and as the tree grows, it will have all the effects of the absorbed law.
And his Tianyan Five Elements Sword Technique, he needs to refine the five attributes of the Natal Flying Sword, except for the Metallic Natal Flying Sword that has been practiced, the other four attributes of the Natal Flying Sword have not yet landed......
The appearance of the Melting Spirit Wood undoubtedly solved the problem of his own wood attribute natal flying sword material.
Using this kind of Melting Spirit Wood, which is known as one of the three ancient divine trees, as a material, the Natal Flying Sword that is refined must be extraordinary!
Xia Yin said to Zhang Rouran: "Take out the rest soil that I got from the reverse dragon son last time, and I will plant the soul melting wood into the rest soil!"
Zhang Rouran took out a large jade box from the storage bag, which was filled with resting soil.
Xia Yin carefully planted the roots of the Melting Spirit Wood with the sprouts into the Resting Soil, and asked Zhang Rouran to arrange a small blood-dripping Recognition Lord Array, enveloping the new shoots, and then spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and stuck to the Melting Spirit Wood shoots......
Zhang Rouran on the side activated the Lord Recognition Array.
Buzz Buzz ......
Between the flashes of light, Xia Yin quickly felt that there was a little more spiritual connection with the young shoots of the Soul Melting Tree, and he couldn't help but look happy.
After the confession ended, Xia Yin put the jade box into the storage ring.
"What are you doing here, why put away the Soul Melting Wood, shouldn't it continue to absorb these droplets and continue to grow?" the girl asked suspiciously.
Xia Yin said with a smile: "It's been five days, and the elixirs in the medicine garden outside have all sprouted, what we have to do next is to ripen all the elixirs, and then alchemy, as for the melting spirit wood, wait for us to retreat and cultivate during this time, and then take it out every night to absorb the droplets to ripen it, in my judgment, if this ancient divine wood wants to ripen, it will not be able to complete it in a day or two, it will take a long time!"
The girl suddenly realized.
The most important thing now is indeed the various elixirs needed to ripen the alchemy.
Although the melting spirit wood is good, the improvement of the strength realm is the fundamental, so alchemy has become the most important task in the future.
The two walked out of the gate of the cave, only to see that there was already a prototype of the cave dozens of zhang away, and the senior brothers Fan Pin and Sikong Blood were still busy, making the final carving of the cave.
Xia Yin smiled and walked to the edge of the medicine garden, and found that all the elixirs in the medicine garden had already drawn out their buds.
"Huh...... From tonight onwards, we can continue to ripen the elixir!" Xia Yin used his spiritual power to sound in the sea of the girl's soul.
Zhang Rouran smiled and nodded, also looking forward to it.
Back in the cave, the two chatted for a while, then began to cultivate, waiting for night to fall.
Xia Yin sat down cross-legged, and the Mirage Determination Technique appeared in his mind.
The Phantom Mirage is an exercise obtained from the Jiaolong Soul Xiao Wu, and it is also the key to whether or not Xiao Wu can be resurrected.
Now is the time to practice this exercise.
Xia Yin decided that once the alchemy was over, he would retreat and cultivate, focusing on the Tianyan Five Elements Sword Technique and the Five Qi Returning Yuan Gong, directly cultivating the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth to the Great Perfection of Foundation Building, and even trying to impact the Golden Pill, and at other times, he would go all out to cultivate the Phantom Mirage.
Now that the Jade Muscle Crystal Bone has been cultivated to the extreme, if you want to continue, you can only continue by finding the second half of the mutilated body refining technique, so you don't need to continue refining your body for a long time in the future......
Sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, Xia Yin began to follow the Phantom Mirage Determination Method, hugging Yuan Shouyi, concentrating on thinking that there was a rudimentary form of heaven and earth in the sea......
According to the description of the exercises, the cultivation of the mirage is to make a mirage realm appear in the sea of soul awareness, which can devour the souls of others, integrate into the realm of the mirage, and let the soul be reborn in the realm of the mirage.
And Xia Yin, through the mirage, was able to obtain the memories and exercises of all the spirits that were integrated into the mirage.
Jiaolong Xiaowu passed the mirage decision to Xia Yin at a critical juncture, which was actually a kind of transaction, or a big gamble, the purpose was to wait for Xia Yin to succeed in cultivating the mirage, so he moved a wisp of the spirit of the Jiaolong Soul Xiaowu into the realm of the mirage, and when Xia Yin cultivated the mirage realm to the point of refining the fake and derived his own world, Jiaolong Xiaowu could be reborn in this world.
Of course, if the Phantom Mirage wants to cultivate to the point of refining the fake and becoming true, it is a more difficult thing than becoming an immortal and becoming a Taoist, and it is almost impossible to achieve!
If Xia Yin really went against the luck of the heavenly dog, and the Phantom Mirage was successful in cultivation, and even went further, cultivating to the unity of the inside and outside, and allowing the Phantom Realm to merge with the outside world, then all the souls in the Phantom Realm would be able to be truly reborn!
This is Xiao Wu's expectation of Xia Yin, he believes that Xia Yin is definitely a very human being, and he will be able to do this one day.
Of course, there is another way, which is to find a body that is in line with the mirage blood fusion of heaven and earth spirits, so that Xiao Wuyi's wisp of spirit can be integrated into it, and controlling this body can be regarded as borrowing the corpse to return the soul.
This is Xia Yin's promise to Jiaolong Xiao Wu back then - whether it is to cultivate the mirage to the extreme, or to find another body, he will resurrect Xiao Wu.
This is a promise, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, Xia Yin vows to fulfill this promise as long as he does not die.
And cultivating the Phantom Mirage is the first step to fulfill the promise......
However, when he really cultivated, Xia Yin discovered that the cultivation of the Phantom Mirage was as difficult as reaching the sky!
This set of exercises originally belonged to the unique supernatural powers of the Jiaolong clan with mirage bloodlines, and belonged to the demon clan exercises, and if human monks want to cultivate, they not only need to be physically strong, but also their spiritual power needs to be extremely strong, so there is a trace of possibility......
Although Xia Yin's physical body and spiritual power barely met the requirements, after all, it was the first time to practice the demon clan exercises, and he didn't have the slightest experience, so he could only slowly explore step by step.
After a whole day, there was no progress in the cultivation of the Phantom Mirage.
Xia Yin reluctantly stopped cultivating.
At this time, Zhang Rouran, who was opposite, also opened his eyes.
"It's getting dark, let's get down to business!" Xia Yin said to the girl with a smile.
The two of them stood up and walked out of the cave and came to the front of the medicine garden.
Under the flick of the girl's fingers, the formation that had already been arranged was silently activated, and a light of different colors enveloped the entire medicine garden.
Xia Yin smiled and took out the mysterious sprouts from the storage ring and transplanted them directly into the middle of more than a dozen elixirs.
Next, the two of them sat cross-legged on the edge of a dozen elixirs, waiting quietly.
Through mental induction, Xia Yin clearly discovered that the countless unrecognizable roots hidden in the roots of the mysterious shoots quietly stretched out and probed into the depths of the void......
These mysterious roots, unknown of their length, seem to be endless, spreading towards the void.
After a stick of incense, a little bit of tiny light the size of a needle tip began to appear in the sky in all directions, converging down through the formation light curtain, forming pea-sized crystal droplets around the mysterious shoots......
More than a dozen elixirs began to greedily absorb these crystal droplets.
After another stick of incense, the elixir, which originally only spit out a little tender green, began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye......
In the middle of the night, more than a dozen elixirs had magically grown to the point of a hundred years of elixirs, and bursts of strong medicinal fragrance appeared!
Without hesitation, Xia Yin uprooted more than a dozen elixirs and put them in the storage ring, and then retransplanted the mysterious sprouts to another direction, and there were also more than a dozen elixirs that had just sprouted around him......
In the early morning of the next day, Xia Yin, who had put the mysterious shoots into the storage ring, had already harvested more than thirty hundred-year-old elixirs.
Back in the cave, Xia Yin continued to explore the cultivation method of the Phantom Mirage, while Zhang Rouran stayed by Xia Yin's side and cultivated quietly......
For the next month, both of them practiced during the day, and continued to ripen a large amount of elixir at night to make final preparations for alchemy.
During this period of time, the cave mansion of the senior brother Fan Pin and Sikong Blood has been completely completed, and the two have also begun to try to cultivate and recover their mana, in the past few years of being enslaved and mining, the mana of the two has not only not increased in the slightest, but has regressed greatly, and Sikong Blood has even reached the point where it is about to fall into the realm, and it will take a long time of penance to recover.
And during this period of time, Xia Yin was also summoned several times by Qin Guanhai, the head of the sect, all of them were to inquire about some cultivation matters, and the entire Zhenyuan Gate was preparing a plan to build a star boat with other alliance forces, and they had no time to take care of Xia Yin and the others' cultivation......
A full month and ten days passed, and when all the required elixirs were ripe, Xia Yin and Zhang Rouran began to refine the elixir.
