The surroundings were gloomy, and Chen Mengsheng couldn't help but shudder.

At this moment, he didn't dare to take a breath in his atmosphere, for fear of attracting a first-order late-stage spirit beast. The blue-eyed spirit mouse in his arms also pricked up his ears and became alert, it seemed that it was indeed a little dangerous, and the spirit beast's spiritual sense was sometimes much more accurate than that of the monk.

Walking towards the depths of the leafy woods, and bypassing a very large red maple forest, Chen Mengsheng saw an ancient temple.

The ancient temple looked dark and dilapidated, and it was behind the red maple forest, and the red maple leaves were blood-red, which added to the gloom of the ancient temple.

Chen Mengsheng slowly approached the ancient temple and unconsciously hugged the blue-eyed spirit mouse.

Squeak, an extremely piercing sound of opening the door echoed in the mountain forest, and he was so frightened that he immediately stopped. His heart was pounding, and he waited for a long time before he pushed open the door of the ancient temple in one go.

When he walked in, the courtyard was overgrown with weeds and cobwebs, and he saw a particularly large spider, staring at him coldly on the courtyard wall.

He looked at the giant spider, not daring to move, and after a long time, the spider followed the web to the other side of the wall. He didn't know if there was an illusion or something in his heart, he always felt that the spider's eyes had a sense of obstruction, as if he didn't want him to enter the ancient temple.

He breathed a sigh of relief, that spider didn't look easy to deal with, and he didn't know what the specific realm was, but if he wanted to survive in the ancient temple in the deep mountains, he was also a spirit beast in the late stage of the first order, and he was really blessed with a great fate. The spider didn't seem to be interested in him, otherwise he would have pounced on him, and he was ready to fight. Thankfully, the spider ran away.

Walking through the weeds one man high, he appeared at the entrance of the main hall of the ancient temple. Pushing open the door, there was another screeching sound, and he entered the main hall, and the light suddenly dimmed, and the coldness was even worse.

He looked around cautiously, and there was only one statue in the entire main hall, which did not look like a statue of a Bodhisattva or a Buddha, but a statue of an ordinary man, and other than that, there was only a lotus stone platform, and one of the man's hands of the statue happened to point to the stone platform.

He walked towards the lotus stone platform, which looked very peculiar and covered with strange patterns. The moment he approached the stone platform, a strange feeling appeared in his heart, he seemed to have seen this stone platform somewhere, and his heart was full of longing for this stone platform. His hand caressed the lotus stone platform, and the feeling was even worse.

He had never seen this lotus stone platform before, and this ancient temple was also the first time he had come here, how could he have such a feeling? Could it be because of the stone? Feeling it, the stone did not have a trace of movement, and that feeling did not seem to come from the stone, but a deep desire in his heart.

Sent by the gods, he sat on the lotus stone platform.

As soon as he sat down, he banged, as if out of his body, he felt that his body no longer belonged to him, and he looked at his body like a bystander. This feeling is different from the experience in the Mountains and Rivers, which is that the divine soul is ingested into the magic weapon, this time, his divine soul is still in the body, but he feels as if he is outside the body.

The "Ten Thousand Flames Dynasty Sect" in his body was running wildly, the aura was also operating in a strange way, and the mental method of "Great Star Luo Qi Jue" was also working, but there was no movement in other exercises, all of which were carried out independently.

Looking at the flow of his own aura, there was an extremely painful feeling in his soul, but he didn't feel the pain, this feeling was very strange, as if he knew that he was in pain, but just like someone next to him watching him in pain, he didn't know what had happened to his body.

Slowly, he found that an additional meridian had been opened up in his body that did not exist, and the aura flowed along that meridian and into other meridians that already existed. In the process, he seemed to see five illusory meridians lying across these meridians, hindering the operation of the aura. The aura that originally flowed in these meridians was robbed of most of the aura by those five illusory meridians.

And after that meridian appeared, the plundering speed of the five illusory meridians slowed down suddenly.

Suddenly, his mind returned, and he felt normal. He was sweating profusely and soaking wet.

He jumped down from the lotus stone platform, and the blue-eyed spirit mouse looked at him suspiciously, feeling that the person in its eyes seemed to have become another person, but it made it even closer, and it jumped into Chen Mengsheng's arms.

Chen Mengsheng hugged the blue-eyed spirit mouse, the emotions in his heart couldn't be calm for a long time, he thought back to everything just now, and the more he thought about it, the more shocked he became.

It seems that that the extra meridian is the same as the jade slip of the ancient foundation building monk, the ancient foundation building monk has fourteen major meridians in his body, and now there are only twelve major meridians in the human body, which is two miles away, and these two meridians also cause the current monk to only cultivate to the twelfth layer of the Enlightenment, and cannot cultivate to the thirteenth layer of the Enlightenment at all.

When he got the ancient spirit stone, he was happy that it was possible to cultivate to the thirteenth level of enlightenment like the ancient monk, but in the end he found that it was delusional, it was useless to have a spirit stone, and he did not have the fourteen major meridians in his body, not only him, but also all the monks in their bodies. For this reason, he was disappointed for a long time, but he didn't expect that in this ancient temple, he actually had an extra meridian. Who left this ancient temple?

When he was acting as a spectator just now, he seemed to have discovered the reason why his cultivation speed was very slow, the five illusory meridians in his body were very likely to be the Five Elements Spiritual Root that monks often said, these Five Elements Spiritual Root actually plundered the spiritual energy in his body all the time, no wonder the monks of the Five Elements Spiritual Root entered the realm very slowly.

But even if he knew this result, there was nothing he could do, he couldn't stop the Five Elements Spirit Root from absorbing the aura, unless one day the Five Elements Spirit Root's aura was fully absorbed, he wouldn't have to worry about the aura being absorbed again. And at that time, it was the time to become an immortal, and I was no longer confused by aura, which meant that the qualifications could no longer influence the cultivation, and I was not an immortal or something at that time?

However, this road is too far, so far that Chen Mengsheng does not have the slightest idea of that at this moment. He only knew that his cultivation was very slow, but he was very lucky, he had the stone as an anti-heaven artifact, and now there was another meridian in his body, he could cultivate according to the cultivation method of the ancient monks, even if he still lacked a meridian, but he was different from other monks, it can be said that from this moment on, his cultivation "went astray" and embarked on the path of ancient cultivation, but this road is farther than other monks after all, it depends on whether he can go down.

Eventually, he left behind the temple and out of the mountains.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but when he finally left the ancient temple, he felt that the statue man smiled and looked at him, and when he looked more closely, the statue of the man became normal again, and his eyes looked at the place where he had first looked.

After he left, the giant spider reappeared on the courtyard wall, staring at him with a grim look and left. He couldn't see that in the eyes of the huge spider, there was the figure of an old man, and the old man didn't know where he was, and there was nothing around him. He looked at Chen Mengsheng through the eyes of the spider, and muttered in his mouth: "Idiot, cause and effect are irreversible, reincarnation cannot be changed, you still walked into this ancient temple and sat on that stone platform, the ninth time, this time, can you wake up?"

Out of that mountain range, he took another road, and now he can't go back the same way, he is afraid of meeting the old man of a thousand illusions again, and the fat young man will definitely not let him go, the blue-eyed spirit mouse came to his arms, the fat young man saw it with his own eyes, according to the strength of the fat young man, he will definitely survive, and he is targeted by a foundation building monk, he has no good fruit to eat. He can only go all the way forward, and then find a way to make a detour to the Immortal Sect.

He has been walking the path for the past few days, just because he is afraid of meeting the fat young man. After waiting for five or six days, he felt that there should be nothing wrong, so he dared to start cultivating in a small mountain forest.

This time, he finally used the ancient spirit stone, he was reluctant to use it before, and he had no hope of entering the thirteenth layer of the spirit realm, what is the waste of the ancient spirit stone for, save it to the back, maybe it will be of great use after building the foundation. There will be no more worries, although there is still a pulse to go, but there is hope. His goal now was to find a similar ancient temple and see if he could find another opportunity to fill in the last meridian so that he could properly build the foundation.

This last vein has some impact on cultivating to the thirteenth layer of the Enlightenment, but it does not mean that without this vein, the cultivation of the thirteenth layer of the Enlightenment cannot be achieved. The most important influence is still in the foundation building, if you take the ancient road, you must have the fourteen veins, otherwise you can only build an incomplete foundation when building the foundation.

Chen Mengsheng doesn't have any way now, it is a great luck to be able to meet the ancient temple, and let him have one more meridian, even he feels a little stupid dreaming, and he can only take one step at a time, but he can't do it, he can only build an incomplete foundation. But even if he has an incomplete foundation, he is stronger than other monks, plus he is a five-element spiritual root, he is basically invincible at the same level in the future, and even the challenge of skipping the level is not a problem.

These are still far away, and when he cultivates to the thirteenth layer of enlightenment, I don't know how young he will be, and the foundation building is even more distant, but there is always hope. Concentrating and calming his breath, he cultivated according to the ancient cultivation method.

Whew, Chen Mengsheng exhaled a breath, and that breath was like a black mist. His heart was overjoyed, the ancient cultivation method was really extraordinary, one ancient spirit stone was worth several spirit stones in ordinary times, and it also had a unique effect, even the impurities in the body could be washed.

The fly in the ointment is that there are only so many ancient spirit stones, and they will be gone when they are used up. The stone is indeed against the sky, and even the ancient spirit stone can be copied, but there is always a day when it runs out, and he doesn't know if he can survive until the day he enters the thirteenth layer of Kailing.

Now it can only be used sparingly, it is best to use the heaven and earth aura and other ordinary spirit stones to improve the realm first, and wait until the tenth layer of the spirit is opened, and then start to use the ancient spirit stone, in the jade slip of the ancient foundation building monk, it seems that the tenth layer of the spirit is a hurdle, and it is very different from the current cultivation system.

With a plan in his heart, he cultivated without hurry, and just like that, he cultivated all the way, and he arrived at Tianmen City.
