Chapter 116: Enlightenment Tower
Two months later, on the meadow in front of the low mountain.
Li Haoyu, who had just returned from completing his mission from the front line, sat next to Xia Mu and told him about the recent situation of Di Qing and Gu Feng.
"So, both of them have been sent to the front line by the clan? Xia Mu frowned.
"Yes, you also know that at the most critical juncture of our Qiankun Holy Academy, they were recalled by the elders of the clan and stayed out of the matter, which was originally understandable, after all, many of the clans of the disciples in the courtyard have done this, but my Qiankun Holy Academy is not a place where they can come and leave when they want to, so if they come back like this, although it is not impossible, they must have lost the trust of the high-level people in the courtyard, so the elders of their clan let them go to the front line to participate in the war, and make up for their mistakes, which can be regarded as a helpless move. Li Haoyu sighed and said, and at the same time, he was glad that his clan did not choose to retreat in the first place, but instead advanced and retreated with the Qiankun Holy Academy.
"I see, by the way, what kind of mission are you going to the front line to perform, I'm afraid that the cultivation of the Enlightenment Realm will not be able to participate in the war, right?" Xia Mu knew that if he wanted to join the battle on the front line, the minimum requirement for the cultivation of disciples at the top of the academy was the fetal palace realm, so he was very curious about what kind of task Li Haoyu and the others were carrying out on the front line.
"Don't underestimate people. Li Haoyu naturally heard the meaning of Xia Mu's words, and glared at him: "Although our cultivation is low, we are still capable of transmitting information, building war projects, and treating the wounded." Even if you are superhuman in terms of infiltration, you can also apply to participate in the outpost work on the front line. ”
"So your mission is quite easy, and the danger is not high. Xia Mu said with a smile.
"Yes, but the return of the mission is not satisfactory, although it is much better than usual, but it is far worse than the treatment of the fetal palace realm monk. Li Haoyu looked envious and said, "The last time I saw a senior brother of the Fetal Palace Realm complete the task, the reward he got turned out to be a high-grade spiritual weapon, but I envy us to death." ”
"Then you should work harder and break through the fetal womb as soon as possible, so that you don't have to envy others. Xia Mu said.
Hearing this, Li Haoyu shook his head and said, "I also want to, but the spirit stones issued every month are only enough for cultivation, otherwise we will not accept the tasks on the front line, we just want to accumulate enough spirit stones to buy a palace-breaking pill." ”
Xia Mu was silent, the breakthrough between the enlightenment and the fetal palace is actually the accumulation of spiritual power in the body, and if the spiritual power accumulation is enough, you can choose to try to break through, with the current spiritual energy concentration of the Qiankun Holy Academy, it will take about five years for a monk in the realm of enlightenment to complete the accumulation of spiritual power without the help of external forces, and if the qualification is too poor, this time will be extended.
"This is a bottle of Palace Breaking Pill, I lent it to you, and when you break through in the future, you have to return it to me with more tasks. Xia Mu flipped his palm, took out a jade bottle from the Qiankun bag, and handed it to Li Haoyu with a smile.
"Thank you. Li Haoyu stretched out his hand to take the jade bottle, without the slightest hypocrisy, because before he entered the Qiankun Holy Courtyard, he already knew the so-called warmth and coldness of human feelings in the tribe, so for Xia Mu's help, he would not refuse it pedanticly, but accept it calmly.
In the following time, after Xia Mu pointed out Li Haoyu's experience in breaking through the fetal palace, he asked him to go back to retreat and start preparing for promotion.
Afterwards, Xia Mu first went to the Fulu Hall to receive the spirit stones and pills that had been accumulated for more than a year. At this time, Xia Mu found that there were many more faces in the Qiankun Holy Courtyard, and after inquiring, he learned that these unfamiliar faces were all disciples of the outer courtyard who had outstanding performance on the front line of various tribes, and they were specially recruited into the Qiankun Holy Courtyard.
It seems that during the war, many of the rules in the Qiankun Sacred Academy have been humanized, as long as those who perform well in the front-line war, even if they are eliminated to the outer courtyard in the initial trial, they can also have the opportunity to become the inner courtyard disciples of the Qiankun Sacred Academy.
In the next few days, Xia Mu did not stay on the low mountain, but strolled in all corners of the Qiankun Holy Courtyard, integrated into nature, appreciated every wonder of heaven and earth, relaxed wholeheartedly, and woke up every day to welcome the sunrise and rest with the sunset.
It wasn't until five days later that Xia Mu came to a certain valley in the Qiankun Holy Courtyard alone.
At the mouth of this valley, there is a tall tower, and there is a plaque hanging high in front of the gate of the tower, with three gilded characters of "Enlightenment Tower" written on it.
After Xia Mu touched the spirit card hanging on his waist, he immediately strode into the tower.
The first floor of the tower was very empty, except for a teleportation spirit circle on the ground, and there was only one young man.
When the young man saw Xia Mu who came in so young, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Senior brother is a disciple of the elder of which lineage, can you have the enlightenment token to enter the Enlightenment Tower? ”
Hearing this, Xia Mu first clenched his fists and bowed, and then handed the token on his waist to the young man and said:
"Senior brother, this is my identity spirit card in the courtyard, you should understand it after reading it. ”
After speaking, Xia Mu took off the spirit card hanging from his waist and handed it over.
"Oh?" The young man raised his eyebrows, took the spirit card from Xia Mu's hand, and didn't see how he moved, except for Xia Mu's name and his portrait, the spirit card appeared.
"It turned out to be Elder Han's disciple, the previous courtyard master had already made a greeting, Senior Brother Xia can enter and leave the Enlightenment Tower freely, and please redeem Senior Brother Ransom, I didn't recognize you for a while. The young man first took a closer look at Xia Mu, and then returned the spirit card to Xia Mu.
"Senior brother is serious, the junior brother has only been in the Holy Courtyard for three or five years, and he often goes out, it is common sense that the senior brother does not recognize the junior brother, how can there be any reason to atone for sins and not to atone for sins. Xia Mu took the spirit card and hung it up again.
"Very good, since the identity of the junior brother has been confirmed, I will arrange an enlightenment tower for you. The young man said, taking out a palm-sized spirit mirror in his hand and shining it at the teleportation spirit array on the ground.
With a flash of spiritual light, the teleportation spirit array immediately had spiritual power fluctuations, forming a light gate.
"And Senior Brother Lao led the way. Xia Mu saw this light gate appear, and his heart was slightly happy.
Before he came, he deliberately read all the information about the Enlightenment Pagoda in the courtyard.
Knowing that the so-called Enlightenment Tower, in addition to being used as an entry trial, its greatest utility is for practicing spiritual arts, and the strange environment in the Enlightenment Tower makes it extremely convenient for the practice of spiritual arts.
The Enlightenment Tower in front of him was just a transit station, and only through that teleportation array could he reach the space where Xia Mu and the others had tried.
In this way, Xia Mu followed the young man into the light gate, and then his body shook slightly and arrived at the original trial space, which was still a deserted scene, and there was only the endless black tower standing there at the end of the vision.
Returning to this place again after three years, Xia Mu sighed in his heart, and felt it slightly, and found that this place was really suitable for practicing spiritual arts, and there was almost no need to control it, with Xia Mu's current attainment of runes, many runes were condensed with a wave of his hand, and it was effortless. You must know that this is still outside the Enlightenment Tower, if you enter the tower, wouldn't the effect be better?
Xia Mu's eyes swept around, and found that part of the Enlightenment Pagoda was closed, and there were still users' names left in front of the pagoda door, obviously someone was cultivating with the help of the strange environment in the Enlightenment Tower.
After the young man walked out of the light gate, he did not hesitate to take Xia Mu and strode forward, walking for half an hour before bringing him to a Enlightenment Pagoda that had not yet been used.
This enlightenment tower is as high as a hundred zhang, simple and atmospheric, and there is a diamond-shaped groove that is not more than a foot deep next to the tower door.
"Senior Brother Xia, this Enlightenment Pagoda has not yet been used, you can cultivate here, because your situation is special, so there will be no time limit for using it, so you can cultivate here for as long as you want. In addition, the diamond-shaped groove next to the door of this tower is where the spirit card is placed, you only need to put your identity spirit card into it, and the prohibition in this enlightenment tower will be temporarily controlled by you, you can enter and exit freely, and there is also a messenger spirit array in the tower, if you want to leave the trial space, you only need to inform me through the messenger spirit array, and then I will control the forbidden formation in the trial space to teleport you out. ”
The young man pointed to the Enlightenment Pagoda in front of him and explained to Xia Mu with a smile.
Xia Mu naturally thanked him when he heard this, and then walked to the tower gate and put his identity spirit card into the groove next to the tower gate.
Suddenly a slight rumbling sound sounded, and then Xia Mu felt that the Enlightenment Tower in front of him had a trace of connection with himself, such a strange feeling, as if he had refined a spiritual weapon, but Xia Mu knew that he only temporarily had the control and use of this Enlightenment Tower, and the ownership still belonged to the Qiankun Holy Academy.
He thanked the young man again, and then Xia Mu strode into the Enlightenment Tower.
As soon as his figure disappeared into the tower, the tower door closed silently, and the aura in front of the tower gate transformed, revealing Xia Mu's name.
The young man smiled at this, and then teleported out of the trial space.
At the same time, Xia Mu had already stepped into the first floor of the Enlightenment Tower, and the winding path led to the secluded road. The familiar scene came into view, and looking back, now Xia Mu had become a fetal palace realm monk and officially embarked on the road of pursuing immortality.
The Enlightenment Pagoda was divided into nine layers, and the cultivation environment on each floor was very different, so Xia Mu didn't plan to go to the other eight layers, and directly sat down cross-legged on the floating rocks on the winding path leading to the secluded path on the first layer.
"Let's take an inventory of the treasures we got in the Tower of Ten Thousand Worlds first, I haven't been able to find time to sort them out after I come back. ”
I saw Xia Mu patting the Qiankun bag, and a bunch of treasures full of spiritual light piled up into a hill appeared on the first floor of the Enlightenment Tower.
Then Xia Mu took out another jade slip, which was a jade slip he bought in the Fulu Palace, which recorded all kinds of treasures in the immortal cultivation world, because the information was relatively complete, so it was worth a lot of money, and it cost Xia Mu tens of thousands of lower-grade spirit stones to buy it, but Xia Mu didn't care about it at all, on the one hand, he was not short of spirit stones, and on the other hand, he also felt that it was worth the money.
After some careful identification and comparison, Xia Mu's complexion gradually changed, and after a moment, he gasped.
"It is worthy of the treasure accumulated by a generation of holy pilgrims over countless years, and the value of these leaked scraps alone is incalculable. Xia Mu muttered to himself, although he knew that the value of the treasures in the emperor's tomb was definitely not low, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated the heritage of a generation of holy dynasties.
