At noon, Shi Jiu stopped in a hilly area.
At this moment, he had just finished practicing the Beiming Breathing Technique.
"It's so refreshing. Even after flying for two hours, once I practice the Beiming Breathing Technique, I feel full of energy again!" Shi Jiu stretched out comfortably, with a look of enjoyment on his face, "No wonder Senior Sword Emperor let Such high praise is indeed justified.”
At this time, Shi Jiu's stomach started to growl and he hadn't eaten for a long time.
Then he took out some dried fruits and roasted meat from the Sumeru space.
Half an hour later, the problem of a full meal was successfully solved. Shi Jiu did not leave immediately for Blackwater City, but continued to sit cross-legged in the same place to digest and absorb the various insights he had gained while watching the Tribulation yesterday.
The calamity at the peak of the Soul Realm was really powerful. Even if Dong Tianling took the Essence of Lingshu, he almost couldn't resist it. In the end, he was covered in blood.
As a witness, Shi Jiu could be said to have seen it from beginning to end, and he was also one of the people closest to the disaster, almost on par with Mr. Ming Jing.
Facing such a close-range catastrophe, the pressure Shi Jiu endured was extremely huge and terrifying. Of course, the benefits he received were also very real.
"Now my willpower should be comparable to that of an average Sky Chong Realm expert. There shouldn't be much of a problem in the Secret Realm of Lost Dreams in half a year." Shi Jiu said to himself.
The Great Red Sword Emperor once said that the people of the Lost Dream tribe are famous for their illusions, and most of the trials in the Secret Realm of Lost Dreams are based on illusions. Illusions mainly affect people's consciousness, so they want to resist illusions. , personal willpower is very important.
Of course, strong willpower is also a necessary element for every strong person. If you want to enter the soul realm, your willpower must also be strong and firm, and yesterday's disaster is the best example.
If the willpower is weak, let alone overcoming the tribulation, even if you want to get close to watch, it will be difficult. Especially in the later stages of the Heavenly Tribulation, the pressure released by the silver lightning increased exponentially. Except for Dong Tianling who was going through the Heavenly Tribulation, everyone else in the Shuntian Escort Bureau, including the Great Elder, could not withstand the Heavenly Tribulation. They took the initiative to retreat due to the terrifying pressure of the calamity. In the end, only Shi Jiu and Mr. Ming Jing stood firm and refused to retreat until the calamity was over.
People with strong willpower will not have weak soul power.
Seemingly thinking of this, Shi Jiu closed his eyes and concentrated his mind into his sea of consciousness. The next moment, a shrunken Shi Jiu appeared in his sea of consciousness.
In the sea of consciousness, Shi Jiu opened his eyes. In front of him was a piece of brilliant silver. With this thought, what was in his mind immediately appeared in the sea of consciousness. Countless meteors flashed across the sky. This scene was from Shi Jiu's previous life. He was lucky enough to see the Leonid meteor shower. At that time, he had made a wish for the meteor shower, which was very impressive. Now he imagined it again in his own sea of consciousness.
The next moment, he flew his hands and performed the Lost Dream Heart Technique. After a few seconds, a delicate lotus flower appeared in the palm of his hand. Compared with the last time, this time the lotus flower was no longer just pale gold, but had a gradual transformation throughout the body. The colorful lotus flower not only exudes a faint brilliance, but also releases a pressure.
With a touch of Shi Jiu's right hand, the pressure exerted by the lotus immediately disappeared, and then it began to spin autonomously, which was very beautiful.
"Yes, although the size has not changed, the overall size is stronger than before." Shi Jiu was very satisfied, "I wonder if the Dream Heart Lotus is like this in reality?"
Thinking of this, Shi Jiu left his sea of consciousness and returned to reality.
The next moment, Shi Jiu's hands were dancing, and soon another exquisite Dream Heart Lotus appeared on his palm.
This one is smaller in size, but its appearance is the same as the one in the sea of consciousness before. It is also full of colors, with a faint light reflecting in all directions. In addition, the coercion still exists, but it is restrained by Shi Jiu and is not released to the enemy. , the introverted Dream Heart Lotus is more threatening.
Dream Heart Lotus was accidentally created by Shi Jiu during the life-and-death duel with the Earthly Evil Yin Demon. Now it is his only soul attack secret method. Shi Jiu plans to continuously improve it to make Dream Heart Lotus more practical and powerful.
"Why does this pressure smell like the pressure of yesterday's calamity?" Shi Jiu carefully felt the restrained pressure of Dream Heart Lotus, and suddenly made a special discovery.
Although this feeling was very light, so light that it could be ignored, Shi Jiu was still aware of it.
"Could it be that during yesterday's calamity, my efforts to resist the pressure of the calamity tainted a trace of it?"
Shi Jiu was not sure. He had never heard of such a thing. Can the pressure of the heavenly tribulation be contaminated?
But thinking about it more carefully, Shi Jiu felt relieved. No matter what, it would be a good thing to have his Fantasy Heart Lotus carry a little pressure of heavenly calamity. If the Dream Heart Lotus carried more pressure of heavenly calamity, Wouldn't that be more powerful? If you use this move against an enemy, doesn't it mean that the opponent is going through a soul catastrophe in disguise?
Thinking of this, Shi Jiu was pleasantly surprised.
In the future, I want to see more of others going through tribulations, and try to make my Dream Heart Lotus carry more pressure from the tribulations.
"In the future, when I overcome the tribulation, I can display the Dream Heart Lotus during the tribulation. The effect... is awesome!" Shi Jiu also laughed out loud at his sudden idea.
No wonder the Great Red Sword Emperor would say that in order to create a martial art, in addition to having a deep and solid foundation of skills, it also requires a moment of enlightenment, whimsical ideas, sudden inspiration, or the tempering of life and death. Sure enough, there is reason.
At this moment, Shi Jiu was inspired by his own unbridled ideas. Although his cultivation level was still very low, it did not hinder his fantastic ideas and various attempts based on them. Even if the attempts failed, You can also try again next time to gain experience. All great inventions made by human beings are summed up from repeated attempts and failures. The same is true for cultivation.
After resting, Shi Jiu unfolded his flying wings again and continued to fly towards the direction of Blackwater City.
The dense forest northwest of Blackwater City.
A big battle had just broken out, and there were already several more corpses on the ground.
"I didn't expect that your dignified Tong Lindian would also conduct a sneak attack. Wouldn't this damage your own reputation too much?" The round-faced man held down his bleeding left arm and looked at the group of people opposite him with hatred.
"Zhao Dafa, if it were anyone else, our Tonglin Palace would not have carried out such a sneak attack, but you are definitely not in this group. Why did you forget so quickly about the sneak attack on my Tonglin Palace in the Elegy Forest last month? Are you ready?" On the opposite side, the second elder of Tonglin Hall and a group of disciples from the hall surrounded the round-faced man.
"Sure enough, I knew you were here for that thing, but you never imagined that that thing is not on me at all at the moment. I have already hidden that thing in a secret place, haha!" The round-faced man laughed angrily. road.
The round-faced man was the leader of the group of bandits that attacked Tonglin in the Elegy Forest. He made a living by digging up ruins in various places. He once found a book of exercises in a certain ruins, and with his own cultivation talent, he also OK, step by step, I have improved my cultivation to the realm of spiritual wisdom, which is no worse than the elders of some major sects, or even better.
For the sake of treasure, even if he faced some big factions, as long as there was no one in the opponent's team who was stronger than himself, the round-faced man would dare to lead his team to rob.
This was what happened in the Elegy Forest a month ago. The round-faced man led his team to rob the Tonglindian team, which had only one elder in charge, and then came here.
But the second elder and third elder of Tonglin Palace in front of him and behind him at this moment are both at the early stage of Tianchong Realm. They are stronger than him, and they brought more people with them. Therefore, in the battle just now, his side died. Many people, their personal guard Bald Tou had just died at the hands of the other party's third elder, and he had also been injured. All the treasures he had dug here had been cut off by the other party, which made him extremely angry.
However, when he thought about the fact that he had robbed the other party's things before, the anger in his heart finally subsided a little. The top priority now was to escape from here first, and then make plans later.
"Zhao Dafa, I know what you want to do, but don't even think about escaping today. In order to catch you, the master of my palace sent me and the third elder here. Are you still trying to find a chance to escape? Stop dreaming and hand it over obediently. That thing, I can still show mercy and leave you a complete corpse." The second elder of Tonglin Palace had a sinister smile on his face.
"Hmph! Do you think I, Zhao Dafa, am scared? It's okay for you to trick a three-year-old with your nonsense, but it won't work for me." The round-faced man sneered directly, but he was speeding up his calculations on how to escape from here.
"Since you refuse to be honest, I can only start with your subordinates first and kill them until you agree." After saying that, the second elder of Tonglin Palace was about to slash at the nearest bandit.
Immediately, the companion of the round-faced man who had been captured was so frightened that he cried for his father and mother, and kept begging for mercy.
"Chief, we don't want to die. Please promise each other and save us!"
Hearing his companion's call for help, the round-faced man was upset and couldn't think of a way to escape from here.
"Wait, don't you just want that thing back? But that thing is no longer with me, but I can take you there, and besides, you are not allowed to kill my people again." As a last resort, the round-faced man made his request.
The current situation is no longer controllable by the round-faced man. Although he doesn't care about his companions, once he has the chance, he will definitely abandon his companions as long as he can escape from him. But it is not possible now, so he can only hang him verbally. , and then think of ways to escape from here.
"Second Elder, this person's words cannot be trusted! Maybe that thing is on him. As long as we catch him, we can search him and find it." Seeing this, Ren Tianye said anxiously.
Ren Tianye's words clearly moved the second elder beside him. Just when he was about to take action, the big man opposite him immediately pressed the Tao in his hand against his neck.
"As long as you dare to move, I will wipe your neck immediately. Then you will not be able to get that thing! Also, little kid, haven't you heard that thieves have the habit of hiding things? Especially when they go out to rob and steal. It’s even more impossible to put valuables on your body when you’re in trouble, for fear of being dumped in a pot. In addition, I am the only one who knows where that thing is hidden, and none of my companions know it, so don’t try to get it out of them!” said the round-faced man. Make threats.
Sure enough, after the round-faced man said this, the second elder who originally wanted to take action immediately stopped.
"Is what you wrote true?" the second elder asked gloomily.
"Of course, otherwise you can try it, I'm afraid you will regret it."
The round-faced man had a look of determination, which directly shocked the second elder and others.
"Okay, I trust you once, bring it here immediately, otherwise I will kill your companions directly." The second elder said to the round-faced man, temporarily giving up on killing and stealing. After all, that's what I came here for. If you don't get the thing, you can't kill it.
On the opposite side, the round-faced man was temporarily relieved and could only think of a solution on the road.
Then he led the people in Tonglin Palace behind him and walked towards the ruins of Heishui City.
