"Hey, what kind of magic circle is this?".
Xiao Hua curiously walked to the back of the door to check, but he didn't recognize the magic circle. He only found that the jack in the center of the pattern seemed to be used to place spiritual stones.
Xiao Hua took out a low-level spirit stone from the storage bracelet and placed it in front of the socket for comparison. It was a little smaller and replaced it with a mid-level spirit stone. Sure enough, this socket was used to place the mid-level spirit stone.
Xiao Hua did not hesitate, put the intermediate spirit stone directly into the socket, and then picked up the sword and shield to be on guard.
After the spirit stone was put in, the magic circle pattern glowed with a burst of white light, and then the entire magic circle pattern kept a faint white light, and nothing else happened.
"What's going on? Is it an invalid magic circle?"
Xiao Hua touched his bald head and was a little confused.
Since it's invalid, it doesn't matter, it won't have any impact anyway.
Xiao Hua reopened the stone door after drawing the fire control array, and planned to go to the garden to pick the corresponding spiritual herbs and elixirs to refine the golden elixir stage elixir.
But as soon as the stone door opened, Xiao Hua discovered it.
All the moonstones that had not emitted light in the stone milk on the roof of the hall suddenly lit up. Not only did the hall become bright, but a huge strange pattern was also reflected on the ground.
"It turns out that the magic circle behind the door is the lighting switch in the hall."
Xiao Hua understood, but when he saw the strange pattern appearing on the floor of the hall, Xiao Hua felt a little guilty.
This pattern is obviously a magic circle. Could it be that the small magic circle behind the door is not the lighting switch in the hall, but a mechanism that turns on another large magic circle?
So what is this magic circle for? Is there any danger?
Xiao Hua stood at the door of the stone chamber without daring to move, and carefully observed the pattern.
Later, it was discovered that this pattern was just an image reflected by the moonstones on the top according to a certain pattern, and was not a real magic circle.
Xiao Hua breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the image of the magic circle with confidence.
Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be some traces drawn with animal blood on the ground. There were runes and patterns. They were all fragmented and had no connection with each other.
Xiao Hua touched his bald head and flew into the air again with the magic weapon. He wanted to see the whole pattern.
"Eh? Why does it look so familiar? Damn, isn't this the kind of space portal that Juan'er mentioned?"
Xiao Hua suddenly realized.
Ever since Xiaolingtian lost contact with the upper world, high-level monks from various sects have been looking for ways to ascend to the upper world again, and the original owner of this cave is certainly no exception.
It seems that this hall should be a place used by the original owner to study the ancient teleportation array. No wonder it is empty and nothing is placed here.
Xiao Hua returned to the ground and looked thoughtfully at the faint runes left by the ancient cultivators on the ground.
He and Juan'er had studied this ancient teleportation formation together and had a little understanding of it.
"I understand. These messy patterns and runes drawn with animal blood on the ground must be the result of research by the original owner of the cave. Yes, it must be, eh? I seem to know this set of runes?"
Just when Xiao Hua wanted to take a closer look, he heard "Boom..." and an ethereal dripping sound interrupted his thoughts.
Xiao Hua subconsciously turned his head and looked at the stone milk on the wall of the creek at the edge of the hall.
After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Hua left the formation pattern and came to the stone milk above the creek wall.
"Boom...".
Another drop of white stone milk liquid dripped into the stream and quickly dissolved in the stream.
"Hiss? This stuff shouldn't be poisonous, right? Otherwise the flowers and plants in the garden would have died long ago. Could it be that the aura of this spiritual spring comes from the spiritual fluid in this stone milk?".
Xiao Hua touched his bald head and began to analyze by himself.
"How about I try to take a sip of the water from the spiritual spring first? If it's okay, I can taste a drop of the spiritual liquid directly?"
Xiao Hua asked and answered himself, leaned over and picked up a mouthful of diluted spiritual spring water and drank it.
As soon as the spring water entered his mouth, Xiao Hua felt an inexplicable sense of comfort.
A burst of sweet and cool pleasure rose from Xiao Hua's heart and flowed throughout his body along with his blood.
"Wow, it's so refreshing. Needless to say, this stone milk must be good. I must try it."
Xiao Hua immediately took out a porcelain bottle and placed it under the stone milk. After a while, a drop of spiritual liquid dripped into the bottle.
Xiao Hua didn't hesitate, raised his head and drank the spiritual liquid directly.
A thick and profound spiritual energy immediately filled Xiao Hua's body. Xiao Hua felt that he was a hundred times more energetic and full of mana.
Xiao Hua smashed his mouth and looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand for a moment.
He didn't use magic much before, but driving the magic weapon around to check made Xiao Hua feel a little tired, but now this fatigue has been swept away.
"Could it be that this stone milk liquid can instantly restore physical strength or mana?"
Xiao Hua was a little excited.
As he moved his sword, he jumped and slashed randomly in the hall with a "wuwuwu" sound. From time to time, he shot out blue arcs with "thunderbolt crackle". He wanted to spend more mana and try again.
After waving for a long time, Xiao Hua finally felt that his mana and physical strength had dropped significantly. He came to the stone milk again and used the porcelain bottle to catch another drop of the spiritual liquid that had just dripped from the stone milk.
Sure enough, as soon as the spiritual liquid was in his stomach, a thick and deep spiritual energy immediately filled Xiao Hua's body and quickly merged into his Dantian. The mana and physical strength he had consumed before were instantly restored.
"If you get rich, if you really get rich, you won't have to refining spiritual stones at the same time."
Xiao Hua jumped up with joy, his face almost turned into a rotten persimmon flower with a smile.
I remember that in order to detoxify Zou Shuniang, he was refining spirit stones and teaching skills at the same time. He almost exhausted himself to death, but now he is better.
After the ecstasy, Xiao Hua used the sword light in his hand to dig a small hole in the wall under the stone milk, took out a piece of animal bone from the storage bracelet and inserted it into the hole, and placed a small porcelain bottle on top of the animal bone.
Xiao Hua knew that the spiritual spring below actually relied on these stone milk spiritual fluids to gain spiritual energy.
If you directly block the dripping of the spiritual liquid, it is likely to affect the spiritual herbs in the garden, so I deliberately placed the vial a little off, so that every drop of the spiritual liquid can be divided into two.
After putting the vial away, Xiao Hua returned to the garden and began to pick the spiritual herbs according to the elixir recipe. He was ready to refine the elixir.
After picking the spiritual herbs needed for the elixir, Xiao Hua also took out the spiritual wine formula that Zou Shuniang gave him.
Since there is a spiritual spring here, it can naturally brew spiritual wine. The medicinal effect of spiritual wine is not as strong as the elixir, but it is easier to refine and absorb.
The most important thing is that the wine recipe Xiao Hua got from Zou Shuniang is an advanced formula that is effective even for the Venerable level.
Speaking of the cultivation realm of immortal cultivators, from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Divine Transformation Stage, there are also the Void Refining Stage, the Integration Stage and the Mahayana Stage.
Only after the Mahayana period has expired and the real great tribulation has passed can one ascend to the immortal world and become a true immortal.
The "Qian Yang Ling Wine" brewed according to this recipe has medicinal effects on monks below the Venerable level.
Venerable is the honorific title given by demonic cultivators to their own cultivation realm. It is actually equivalent to the combined period of human monks, second only to the Mahayana period.
However, the "Qianyang Spirit Wine" that is effective for the combined stage requires not only a variety of extremely rare spiritual herbs and elixirs to be brewed, but also must ensure that each of the spiritual herbs and elixirs must be more than three thousand years old.
Back in Lingshan, two elixirs were missing because the medicines were not old enough. Mother Zou Shu used other elixirs instead. As a result, the spirit wine she brewed was only effective for people below the Nascent Soul stage.
Of course, what Xiao Hua wanted at that time was just alcoholic. If he really wanted the genuine "Qianyang Spirit Wine", Zou Shuniang couldn't brew it.
Nowadays, it is almost the same. There is still one type of elixir needed for the recipe, and the medicine is not old enough.
Even if Xiao Hua uses the demon elixir to replace the missing one, its effect will only be effective for the golden elixir stage, and it is a copycat version.
But Xiao Hua can't control that much. He didn't grow the spiritual herbs and elixirs in the caves himself, as long as they are effective for the golden elixir stage.
So Xiao Hua also picked part of the required spiritual herbs and elixir according to the spiritual wine formula.
After everything was ready, Xiao Hua returned to the renovated alchemy room with the picked spiritual herbs and elixir.
