In the stone house, Mu Jingyu sat cross-legged and began to look at his meridians and inner elixir.
I saw that the inner elixir, which was originally as big as a thumb, had more than doubled in size, and the true energy contained in it was naturally much more abundant. And the meridians throughout the body are stronger and wider than four months ago. Judging from his current cultivation level, he may have reached the late stage of concentration.
After sitting motionless for four months, his cultivation level actually improved to a higher level. Not to mention in Jiuhua Mountain, even the righteous sects have never appeared before. The main reason for this is naturally the King of Zhuguo and the Viper's inner elixir.
However, before Mu Jingyu had time to be happy, he suddenly discovered that next to his inner elixir, there was also a flesh elixir that was smaller than his inner elixir.
"Hey~ what is this?"
Mu Jingyu had never seen such a situation before, and he wanted to ask other people, but there was no one else in the valley except him. With no choice but to carefully observe this meat pill of unknown origin.
Looking inside, I found that there was an extremely small meridian between the flesh elixir and the inner elixir, connecting the two. As the inner elixir circulates, tiny bits of spiritual energy continue to enter the flesh elixir and enter the inner elixir through the meridians.
It turned out that Mu Jingyu’s cultivation level was limited after all. Even though it took four months, the two spiritual energies were still not fully absorbed. As time passed, the two spiritual energies merged completely and formed a spiritual elixir.
And the inner elixir in Mu Jingyu's body was somehow connected to this elixir. Whenever Mu Jingyu practices the Shaoyang Nazhen Sutra, he will absorb the spiritual energy from the elixir into his body.
And as the spiritual energy becomes less and less, the size of the elixir is also constantly shrinking. It seemed that after Mu Jingyu completely absorbed the spiritual energy, he would completely disappear.
By that time, I am afraid that his cultivation will be able to break through the peak of concentration and reach the realm of Qi transformation in one fell swoop.
"Could this be what the ancients often said was a blessing in disguise?"
After Mu Jingyu understood this calamity, he felt completely relieved. Since I'm trapped in the valley and can't get out, it's a good time to practice with peace of mind. After breaking through to the transformation stage and being able to fly with a sword, then think about finding a way out of this valley.
There is no time in the mountains, and there is no autumn in the cold.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Jingyu has been in this valley for six years. Every day, in addition to catching some fish and shrimp in the deep pool to satisfy my hunger, I would sit cross-legged in the valley and meditate. Occasionally, I would pick a few red fruits to satisfy my craving.
Just half a year ago, he finally absorbed all the spiritual energy in the elixir and successfully broke through to the realm of Qi transformation. However, the Shaoyang Nazhen Sutra he practiced was only the primary method of Jiuhua Mountain. At most, it can help him improve his cultivation to the realm of Guiyuan. If he practices further, it won't have much effect.
Seeing that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, Mu Jingyu had no choice but to temporarily slow down his cultivation and start looking for a way to leave the valley.
In the past six months, Mu Jingyu has gone deep into the stone path many times, hoping to find a third way out of the valley. But although there are many forks in the mountain road, every one of them is a dead end. And the stone path he came in was blocked by huge rocks. Even if he used up all his energy, he still couldn't open it from the inside.
In desperation, he had no choice but to turn back and go to the stone path where He Xiaozi came in. I found that the stone gate was still blocking the road here, and it was equally heavy. Let alone a young man in the Qi Transformation Realm, even a master in the Innate Realm would not be able to blow open the stone gate with his own spiritual power.
Since he couldn't get out the way he came, he had to give up the stone path and returned to the valley in frustration. Suddenly I remembered that when I first entered the valley, I found that under the deep pool, there seemed to be an undercurrent leading outside. It's just that my cultivation level at that time was low and I couldn't hold my breath for a long time and dive. Now that my cultivation has reached the realm of Qi Transformation, I should be able to give it a try.
After going more than a hundred feet into the pool, I found an undercurrent underneath the deep pool. Overjoyed, he swam over in a hurry. Just looking at it from a distance, I suddenly felt desperate.
It is true that there is an undercurrent under this deep pool, but unfortunately the entrance is extremely small, barely enough for one of his arms to reach in. Moreover, the water inside is so fast that it is almost impossible to get out from here.
After wandering around the valley for three days, Mu Jingyu had no other choice now. The way in is blocked, and there is no way out of the deep pool. If you want to get out, I'm afraid the only way is to go to heaven.
But this valley is located in the hinterland of Jiuhua Mountain and is surrounded by Qianren cliffs. Not to mention that it is difficult for the Cangyuan monkey to climb, it is probably difficult for the flying birds and giant eagles to soar up. Moreover, above the valley, there are countless huge rocks lying across the top of the valley, with only extremely narrow gaps exposed. It seemed that it was difficult for him, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, to get through.
Fortunately, Mu Jingyu now has the cultivation of Qi Transformation and can fly with his sword with all his strength. Although I don't know if I can fly to the top with my sword, but other than that, there is no other way.
After fetching the long sword that He Xiaozi left in the valley, Mu Jingyu injected his true energy into the long sword and began to carefully control the long sword to hang in the air.
Although he has never learned the art of sword control, Mu Jingyu miraculously did it after practicing for more than half a day! It seems that his qualifications are just too poor, but his understanding is not low.
Carefully stepping on the long sword, Mu Jingyu took a deep breath and tried to calm down his nervous mood. He recalled in his mind the scenes of Mo Yunshen, Guo Qingshan and others flying with swords, and controlled the long sword to fly slowly towards in the air.
Ten feet, fifty feet, one hundred feet...
Before Mu Jingyu had time to be happy, he felt that the sword began to shake, stopped rising, and showed faint signs of falling. It turned out that Mu Jingyu failed to control the consumption of his true energy properly when he flew with a sword for the first time. I just wanted to pour all the energy into the sword. After flying a hundred feet away, the true energy was already a little weak.
In desperation, he had no choice but to return to the ground in frustration. After all the true energy is restored, he takes off with his sword again. With the first experience, Mu Jingyu began to slowly inject his true energy this time, extending the flight time.
However, when he flew halfway, the sword under his feet suddenly made several jingling sounds. Mu Jingyu couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this. It turns out that this long sword is just an ordinary weapon. It cannot withstand too much infuriating energy and has begun to show cracks. If he was struggling to fly, he would probably be shattered into pieces before he could reach the top of the valley.
Looking at the only weapon in the valley, Mu Jingyu's mood hit rock bottom. He finally found a way to leave the valley, but he didn't know that he didn't have a weapon that he could use to fly with his sword.
Mu Jingyu was so angry that he threw the long sword into the distance. There was a sound of metal shattering, and the cracked long sword was suddenly shattered into pieces.
"Ah, it's really broken!"
Mu Jingyu just got angry and impulsively threw the long sword. I didn't expect it to be completely shattered, and I was really dumbfounded this time.
He hurriedly ran over and wanted to pick up the sword. Suddenly, he realized that the long sword had just hit the exposed fangs of the viper before it was shattered by the impact.
Mu Jingyu frowned, an idea flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Stupid, stupid, stupid, since the long sword can't withstand the infusion of true energy, then the viper's fangs must be able to! Although these fangs are not weapons, I heard Master Fan mention that it is not just black stones and other things It can be made into weapons. The bones, flesh and veins of these ferocious beasts can also be made into weapons and armor. And the fangs of this viper are so hard, I think they are much stronger than a long sword. If I can remove them, It should be able to help me fly with my sword!"
After Mu Jingyu said that, he couldn't wait to find something, and cut off the fangs in the viper's mouth in a few times.
This fang is no longer than the arm, and it feels cold when held in the hand. After Mu Jingyu poured his true energy into it, he tried hard to control his fangs from flying up. However, even though I was exhausted and sweating profusely, it still had no effect at all.
According to Mu Jingyu's current cultivation level, he can only manage to control some basic-level weapons and magic weapons. Considering that these viper fangs have reached the seventh or eighth level of mortals at least, Mu Jingyu has never learned how to control a sword, and his cultivation level is not high, so naturally he cannot control it.
Since I can't control this fang, can't I find something else in the valley to use as a flying sword weapon?
Mu Jingyu's character is extremely determined. Even if he fails again and again, it still arouses his determination to refuse to admit defeat.
As he said, Mu Jingyu looked around the valley again, trying to find something suitable to use as a weapon for his flying in the air. But in this valley, except for rocks and trees, there is nothing else.
Mu Jingyu reluctantly came to the altar in the middle of the valley again, because this place was full of mystery. He had rarely been to this stone house in the past six years.
As the sun shines in, the nine candlesticks are lit in sequence. Mu Jingyu searched around carefully, hoping to find something useful.
But there was nothing available in the stone house, which was obviously a place of worship. Just when Mu Jingyu was about to quit in disappointment, the corner of his eye glanced at the throne deep in the stone house.
I saw that the pure black stone chair seemed to have ripples like water patterns under the candlelight. Mu Jingyu has been to this stone house several times, but he has never noticed anything like this. Out of curiosity, he came to Shishi.
"Is this...the pattern in the stone path?"
Mu Jingyu leaned closer and looked carefully, and found that the patterns were exactly the same as those next to the stone door!
Since they have the same pattern, maybe the same mechanism will appear. Mu Jingyu was ecstatic and quickly looked around the stone chair. Sure enough, a hidden secret pavilion was discovered on the ground behind the stone chair.
Like the mechanism of Shimendu, there is also a slightly sunken groove on the surface of the secret pavilion. However, there are no murals in this stone room, let alone any gem mechanisms.
"Where will the agency be hidden?"
Mu Jingyu looked around carefully, trying to find the hidden mechanism. He touched the eight candlesticks placed on the ground one after another, but still did not touch the mechanism.
Apart from these candlesticks, the only thing left in the entire stone house was the copper candlestick hanging mid-air.
"Is it possible that the agency is hidden up here?"
Mu Jingyu looked at the huge candlestick fixed firmly on the top of the stone roof, and suddenly flew to the outer edge of the Nine Provinces Mountains and Rivers Map, reaching out to touch the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas above, as well as the birds and animals. However, after touching all these things, I still didn't find anything suspicious.
"Forget it, since I can't find the mechanism, I'd better not waste time here. Find a suitable weapon first, and let's talk after we get out of the valley."
Mu Jingyu stood on the candlestick, placing one hand on the pearl hanging at the top. With a slight exertion on his palm, he tried to pick it off the candlestick.
Suddenly, the pearl originally embedded in the candlestick actually made an extremely small sound as Mu Jingyu pressed it. Mu Jingyu was startled and quickly stopped and turned to look at the pearl.
I saw that the pearl originally embedded in the candlestick was slowly sinking into the candlestick. What was even more surprising was that the groove under the stone chair slowly rose up as the pearl sank into it.
In just a moment, the pearl and the depression stopped at the same time. From the depression, another pearl of the same size emerged, glowing slightly.
Before Mu Jingyu could go down to find out what was going on, the pearl suddenly shot out a beam of light, covering the entire black stone chair. In the brilliance of the sky, an antique wooden box emerged from the stone chair.
Curious, Mu Jingyu jumped down from the candlestick, walked slowly to the stone chair, reached out and opened the wooden box.
A more dazzling light shot out from the wooden box, illuminating the entire stone house as bright as day. When the brilliance gradually dissipated, only a string of simple bracelets lay quietly in the wooden box.
