Xuchen knew about the dark rat before. It is an innate dark energy entity, and it is an energy carrier that is purer than the dark spirit stone. Only the high-level leaders at the patriarch level can enjoy it, and Xu Chen has only heard of it at this level, but has never seen it at all.

"Good. I'll bring a few of them for you to play with one day. ”

Seeing Xu Chen's happy appearance, Hao Hongliang's heart was also very happy.

"Thank you, master!"

Xu Chen immediately bent down to thank Hao Hongliang.

"Lord Xuzhou, why is the aura in your house so abundant?"

Darlan asked Xu Chen very suspiciously. Ever since he entered this reception room, he felt that the aura here was very sufficient, much stronger than in the Dream City Great Array.

It's been a long time, and it's been a long time since I've enjoyed such an abundant aura. Darlan smiled with the puppy in his arms, looked curiously around, kept looking around the house, and finally stopped by the window.

"Captain Da, in this main palace of mine, there is a small spirit gathering formation left by the ancestors. Because it is too wasteful of spirit stones when it is opened, we will not use it under normal circumstances, and today it has just been opened to welcome the arrival of the master and you. ”

Xu Chen explained to Darlan.

"You're also going to set up a spirit gathering formation?"

Darlan was even more curious.

"Yes. But we will only set up the dark energy spirit gathering formation, and this dream energy spirit gathering formation is left by the ancestors. I don't know if it was set up by the master, and the method of setting it has not been handed down. ”

Xu Chen further explained to Darlan.

"Governor Xu, our lord, your master will set up this spirit gathering formation. ”

Darlan pointed at Hao Hongliang and said to Xu Chen.

"Really, master, you are truly amazing!"

Xu Chen said to Hao Hongliang with a look of surprise.

"That's what I found in the Dream Clan Heritage. I can only set up some small spirit gathering formations now, and I can't do large ones. ”

Hao Hongliang said very modestly. He was telling the truth, due to the limitations of his cultivation, he could only set up a small spirit gathering formation at present, and the slightly larger ones could not do anything. For example, the large array on the edge of Dream City, which can accommodate tens of millions of people, Hao Hongliang can't set it up no matter what.

While they were talking here, the left and right palace masters pushed the door in, and the left palace master handed Xu Chen a small black jade box.

"Master, this is that dark top-grade energy spirit stone. ”

Xu Chen opened the small jade box and handed it to Hao Hongliang with both hands very respectfully.

"Wow! that's beautiful!"

Inside the small jade box lies a spirit stone the size of a black bean, shining with a thick and soft light, it really deserves to be the best spirit stone, and at a glance, you know that it is not ordinary.

"Governor Xu, your grandfather also wears such an energy spirit stone around his neck, exactly the same. ”

Hao Hongliang took the small jade box containing the best spar in his hand and looked at it carefully, and suddenly remembered that there was also a pendant hanging on his neck in the crystal coffin, which was the same as this top grade spirit stone, and it was also a top grade spirit stone.

"Master, this superb spirit stone of mine was left to me by my grandfather. ”

Xu Chen pinched out the dark top-grade energy spirit stone from the small jade box, stuffed it into Hao Hongliang's hand, and continued:

"You just refine and absorb it, and it will help you replenish the lost energy. ”

"This spirit stone is so precious, it's a pity to refine and absorb it. ”

Hao Hongliang said to Xu Chen with a little regret.

"It's also rubbish in my hands, so there's nothing to be sorry for. You can use it, master. ”

"Well, thank you!"

After sighing for a while, Hao Hongliang held the dark top-grade energy spirit stone in his palm, closed his eyes and concentrated, and slowly sensed the aura in it.

"Wow!"

"It's so pure!"

This superb spirit stone is much stronger than those obsidian and black diamonds. This is the first time Hao Hongliang has come into contact with such a pure spirit stone, and he doesn't know how many times purer than the spiritual power energy spirit stone and dream spirit stone that Ande Shui gave him.

Holding this spirit stone with such pure energy in his hand, Hao Hongliang couldn't control himself a little, the temptation of this spirit stone was too great, and the urge to retreat and cultivate was surging in his heart.

"Captain Da, Lord Xuzhou, I want to immediately retreat and cultivate, and refine and absorb this superb energy spirit stone. You two give me Dharma protection. ”

Hao Hongliang thought that this was an excellent opportunity, and instead of forcibly suppressing the urge to retreat and cultivate, it was better to take advantage of the situation, and perhaps use this to break through to the cultivation of the seventh level of the prefecture level.

Hearing Hao Hongliang's order, Xu Chen immediately made arrangements. He went out with the left and right palace masters, and immediately blocked all the passages of this main palace and asked them to guard the palace gate. Then he himself came back and stayed here with Dalan and the puppy Xiaoxiao to protect the Dharma and protect Hao Hongliang's retreat and cultivation from being disturbed.

Everything was arranged, Hao Hongliang sat down on the sofa, holding the dark top-grade energy spirit stone in his hand, and soon entered the cultivation state, slowly refining and absorbing the top-grade spirit stone.

Although Hao Hongliang is in retreat and cultivating, his mind is very clear-headed, and he keeps in mind the master's warning: Don't take too much, take it when you see it, and things will be reversed. Carefully and accurately grasp the speed and quantity of refining and absorption.

When a certain degree was reached, Hao Hongliang decisively adopted a differentiated approach. While refining that superb spirit stone, he differentiated those dark energy, first converted the spiritual energy in the spirit stone into spiritual energy for absorption, and then temporarily stored those dark energy next to it for later use, so that it was safer.

Five days passed before I knew it. When that dark top-grade energy spirit stone turned into powder, the glimmer of essence light in the depths of Hao Hongliang's mind suddenly flickered, and his own cultivation naturally broke through to the seventh layer of the ground level.

However, when the cultivation reached the seventh layer of the ground level, the momentum of the breakthrough did not stop because of this, with the continuous flickering of that trace of essence light, Hao Hongliang's cultivation continued to improve, breaking through to the peak of the seventh layer in one fell swoop, and that trace of essence light also dimmed, and was quietly suspended in the depths of his mind again.

In the past five days, Hao Hongliang has been refining and absorbing that superb spirit stone every day, and Dalan and Xu Chen who watched it were terrified. You must know that this superb energy spirit stone is enough for them to refine and absorb it in hundreds or even thousands of years.

Hao Hongliang actually refined and absorbed it in such a short period of time, if it was placed on them, he would not know how many times it would have been blown up.

Looking at Hao Hongliang's increased cultivation, the corners of their mouths couldn't help twitching. The speed of cultivation growth is also too terrifying, and it has reached the peak of the seventh layer before it is seen.

Dalan and Xu Chen asked themselves, the improvement of each layer of their cultivation, no matter which level, without hundreds or thousands of years of hard work, it was simply impossible.

However, the young man in front of him, who was only eighteen or nineteen years old, only took five days to reach such a big level. Really, people are more popular than people.

"Lord Xuzhou, find me a spacious place. ”

Hao Hongliang's cultivation and skill have reached a new level, and he is full of strength and excess energy. He urgently needed to find a place to vent, release the separated dark energy, refine and absorb it again, and consolidate the existing cultivation, otherwise it would be too wasteful.

Xu Chen is also a profound cultivator, of course he knows Hao Hongliang's current situation, and immediately understands the meaning of Hao Hongliang's words. Under his leadership, the three of them and one dog just walked out of the palace gate, and met a bearded person waiting outside the door, Xu Chen hurriedly said:

"Brother Dong, I'm sorry! ”

"Big brother, what you said is too outrageous. Retreat and cultivation is a big deal, and it doesn't hurt for me to wait a few more days, junior brother. ”

The bearded man said to Xu Chen very heartily.

"Master, this is my cousin Xudong. ”

Xu Chen introduced Hao Hongliang and Xu Dong:

"Brother Dong, this is my master Hao Hongliang, who is the cultivation he has improved for me. ”

"Governor of Montenegro Prefecture Xu Dong meets Senior Hao!"

Xu Dong hurriedly hugged his fist towards Hao Hongliang. He set off overnight and rushed to the Heishui Palace the next morning, because Hao Hongliang was in retreat, and the left and right palace masters invited him to the guest room to rest and wait, but he waited at the door outside the palace.

"Governor Xu, don't be polite, I'm going out to consolidate my cultivation, you can go with us, and I'll take care of your body again when I go." ”

Hao Hongliang returned the salute to Xudong.

"Okay. Then you're welcome. ”

Saying that, Xudong also flew up with Hao Hongliang and the others, they flew directly to the west, and two hours later, they landed in a remote and uninhabited mountain.

Hao Hongliang motioned for Dalan, Xu Chen, and Xu Dong to stay away from him, and then sat firmly on the rock. He used the power of the seventh layer of the ground level to exude the excess spiritual energy and dark energy in his body, which was convenient for the next step of refining and absorption.

Hao Hongliang's pouring out was clearly a mixture of spiritual energy and dark energy, but the result was very different. The two energies combined into one were like the richest dark energy, surging around him.

Hao Hongliang once again leaned out his pure spiritual energy and wrapped up those surging dark energy. After repeated refining, traces of pure spiritual energy were formed, which were absorbed back into his body by Hao Hongliang.

When all was done, there was only one black fog after another outside.

"Ahh

Xu Chen pointed to the patches of black fog and exclaimed loudly, shaking through the valley and resounding through the sky.

Xudong, who followed, was even more stunned by all this in front of him. He had seen with his own eyes that so much dark energy was so magically transformed into spiritual energy by Hao Hongliang, and it was completely absorbed.

The last remaining pieces of black mist turned out to be divine dark energy, and he was amazed, and shouted loudly:

"Big brother, quick. Keep that energy, but don't let it run away. ”
