After finishing the practice, Shi Jiu felt relaxed.
"A little more impurities were discharged." Shi Jiu smelled a bit of stench from his body. He opened his shirt and saw that a little bit of black impurities were attached to his body surface, but the amount was not as large as before.
Because he was the only one in the camp and no one could prepare bath water for him, Shi Jiu went to a stream not far from the camp to wash his body, wash his clothes as well, and then left the storage room. Take out a new set from the spirit ring and replace it with a new one.
After returning to the camp, Shi Jiu did not continue to practice, but fell directly to sleep, preparing to recuperate enough to cross the big crack the next day.
The next morning, Shi Jiu came to the edge of the large crack where he had picked the ink shadow grass yesterday. The dark atmosphere here was rich and suitable for Shi Jiu's enlightenment.
Then Shi Jiu took out the tools used for mining before and carved out a small platform for one person to sit and stand on the cliff where the ink shadow grass grew.
After doing all this, Shi Jiu nodded with satisfaction, so that he could sit cross-legged and reflect quietly here without being attacked by the beasts that occasionally appeared below.
After that, Shi Jiu arranged a small protective formation around himself, and then he sat cross-legged on the platform with peace of mind and began to understand the dark laws in the big crack.
From time to time, strong winds blow through the large cracks, and sometimes the roars of array beasts can be heard, but these have nothing to do with Shi Jiu. The platform he dug was recessed into the cliff wall, thus avoiding the disturbance of strong winds, and the protective formation he set up could hide it from low-level underworld beasts.
And Shi Jiu sat motionless on the platform, focusing his whole body on comprehending the majestic dark laws around him.
After an unknown amount of time, a very faint black halo appeared on Shi Jiu's body, but it dissipated in an instant. He was not aware of this scene. It was not until evening that Shi Jiu opened his eyes.
"Yes, I have realized something again. If I continue like this, I might be able to understand all the dark laws here." Shi Jiu was satisfied with today's results. After getting up, he unfolded his flying wings and flew towards the camp.
After returning to the camp, he took out a piece of black shadow grass, placed it in the palm of his hand, then closed his hands to experience and absorb it carefully.
After a long time, all the energy in the Mo Shadow Grass was absorbed by him.
"It's a pity. Apart from the fact that the energy inside can be absorbed, the dark law and conception inside it are no longer useful to me. I can only comprehend it by crossing the big crack." Shi Jiu was a little disappointed.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt relieved. Although the Black Shadow Grass is good, its level is not high. After all, the energy and legal conception it contains are limited. It can never contain all the dark laws, otherwise it would not be the Black Shadow Grass. But it is the most precious treasure in the world, and it is impossible for me to touch it.
On the third day, Shi Jiu continued to go to the big crack to gain enlightenment. However, after completing his enlightenment, he found two more Black Shadow Grasses on the cliff opposite.
Shi Jiu was not polite and picked it directly and put it into the storage spirit ring. Although the dark law concept contained in the ink shadow grass was no longer useful to Shi Jiu, the energy inside could still be absorbed.
For several days in a row, Shi Jiu realized his thoughts in the big crack during the day and rested in the camp at night, enjoying himself endlessly.
…
Lanming City, inside Fengbaozhai.
"Mr. Mirror, Miss, that's what happened." Manager Wu said.
After getting the Ink Shadow Grass, Manager Wu didn't waste a moment. He directly made the Chitian carriage and returned to Fengbaozhai. Then he handed several Ink Shadow Grass plants to Mr. Ming Jing, and then basically explained everything about the trip. came out, and also handed the letter written by Shi Jiu to Jin Yuner.
"This guy is so brave. Not many people dare to study in that place." Mr. Ming Jing smiled, with a hint of admiration in his words.
"This is not bold. It's clearly because of a hot head. No normal person would seek enlightenment in such a dangerous place. If he is not careful, he will be eroded by the dark atmosphere there, and finally die there in confusion. Such There are many examples." Jin Yuner, who had read the letter, became even more angry.
"Why do you feel sorry for that kid?" Looking at the angry Jin Yuner, Mr. Ming Jing joked.
"Uncle Ming, you're teasing me again! I don't feel sorry for him. I'm worried that if something happens to him there, there will be no helper in the secret realm of wet dreams in a few months." Jin Yuner rolled her eyes at the mirror next to her. A glance at Mr.
"Okay, okay, what are you talking about? What are you going to do next? Do you need to bring that kid back by force?"
"Forget it, even if we go, he probably won't come back with us, so let him do whatever he wants." After hearing Mr. Ming Jing's question, Jin Yuner shook her head after thinking for a moment.
Although the two are friends, she still has some understanding of Shi Jiu's temperament. Since the other party has decided to do this, he is probably sure of it, and even if she tries to persuade him in person, he may not come back. Besides, their relationship is not good yet. At that point, rather than trying to persuade him to come back, it would be better to just let him have his way.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. A few days ago, Dong Tianling and I went to the vicinity of the Yuanye Ancient Pit to check the tribulation scene there, and finally made some discoveries." Mr. Ming Jing retracted his previous playful expression and said solemnly.
"Oh? Uncle Ming, have you found out who is going through the tribulation?" Jin Yuner asked. "Isn't it really the leader of the Fire Fist Sect?"
"Well, it was him. Dong Tianling and I found a piece of charred clothes and felt the aura of Huo Qianli from it." Mr. Ming Jing nodded.
"Then has he successfully overcome the tribulation?" Jin Yuner continued to ask.
"It's probably a success. Dong Tianling vaguely felt a very faint breath of life from the place where he overcame the tribulation. That is a phenomenon that only occurs to people who have succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, so we judge that he should have succeeded." Mr. Ming Jing frowned. head.
Although there is no grudge between Fengbaozhai and the Fire Fist Sect, the leader of the Fire Fist Sect once blocked him in Moluo Cave. For this reason, Mr. Mingjing was still a little dissatisfied with the other party. Now that the Fire Fist Sect leader has entered the soul realm, he is still somewhat dissatisfied with him. Somewhat unpleasant.
"Even the leader of the Fire Fist Sect has entered the Soul Realm. What about you, Uncle Ming, when do you plan to overcome the tribulation? I, Fengbaozhai, will definitely provide you with a treasure of heaven and earth to help you overcome the tribulation." Jin Yuner said expectantly.
"It's impossible this year. It will probably be next year. I feel that I am not perfect yet and need a period of polishing." Mr. Ming Jing was a little helpless.
Since the Tonglin City Auction, many people have successfully overcome the calamity and entered the Soul Realm. This has also made Mr. Ming Jing, who is already at the peak of the Soul Realm, very eager. There is no way that the Soul Realm is the dream state of every person at the peak of the Soul Realm. , he is naturally no exception, but he understands his own situation, and it is not the time yet. In addition, as the supervisor of Fengbaozhai in Lanhai County and several nearby counties, he is eligible to receive a reward from the headquarters, and this Most managers will use this reward to exchange for treasures to overcome the tribulation.
"The leader of the Fire Fist Sect has not been made public now. He is probably recovering from his injuries, and now is not a good time to make it public." Mr. Mingjing continued, "In addition, I also received news that the Ghost Fire Sect and the Peerless Palace were in Duchuan County yesterday. There was a fight on the border."
"Oh? There was a fight so soon, and it was still on the territory of Jueshi Palace. How was the battle going?" Jin Yuner was a little curious.
"Both sides suffered casualties on each other, and their respective team leaders were injured."
"Is this a deliberate act by the Ghost Fire Sect in order to retaliate against the other party's sneak attack on their sect leader?"
"It's possible." Mr. Ming Jing nodded: "Anyway, the more tense the situation is, it will be beneficial to us, Fengbaozhai. Just yesterday, your uncle Ming sent me news that Tonglindian ordered a batch of medicinal materials from us. and weapons, in addition to a small amount of elixirs.”
"Oh? Really? That's great. The snipe and the clam are competing for the fisherman's profit. The more chaotic the situation, the better for me, Fengbaozhai."
"Well, we have to prepare more goods in the near future, and we must actively send people to other counties of Yongyan Prefecture to collect various supplies. You will be responsible for these, and I will personally go to the headquarters of Yongyan Prefecture and personally report to Lord Yuanchen Report the situation here." Mr. Mirror further said.
"Ah? Uncle Ming, are you going to Yongyan Mansion? I want to go too. I haven't seen Sister Haitang for several years and I miss her very much." Jin Yan'er begged.
"Yan'er, it won't work this time. I'm going on business. You can go when the situation here stabilizes." Mr. Ming Jing shook his head and rejected Jin Yuner's request.
"Then... okay, but Uncle Ming, you have to help me bring a letter to Sister Haitang." Jin Yuner compromised.
"Okay, that's no problem. If you want anything else, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I'll bring it back to you." Mr. Ming Jing agreed.
"Really, Uncle Ming? You can't lie, I want a golden hairpin with a phoenix pattern, and Tian Ruyi..." Jin Yuner started to sign up one by one.
"Oh, I remembered. I still have something important to discuss with Dong Tianling, so I'll take the first step." Mr. Ming Jing began to regret it. Before Jin Yuner finished reporting the list, he left immediately. If he stayed here any longer, he might Going bankrupt.
"Uncle Ming, you're doing this again!" Jin Yuner's roar came from behind him.
A few days later, Shi Jiu had almost fully understood the surrounding dark laws on the platform across the edge of the great rift.
If you want to continue to understand the laws of darkness, you must go deeper into the Great Crack. Of course, the dark atmosphere there will be more intense and violent. If you are not careful, you may fall into a place of eternal destruction.
Shi Jiu looked up and looked into the depths of the large crack. It was extremely dark and deep, as if it could swallow everything. Shi Jiu's spiritual consciousness swept there, but he never came back, which not only made him frown.
To go or not to go?
After some ideological struggle, Shi Jiu decided to go deeper.
Slowly, he approached the central area of the big crack step by step. The dark will here was extremely domineering. Even though Shi Jiu's willpower was not weak, every step he took was extremely laborious, as if there was a mountain pressing down on his body. , and it continues to get worse.
"This can only go as far as this. I can't bear it any further."
This is the edge of the central area of the Great Rift. The dark will here is extremely powerful and violent. Even monks in the Tianchong realm may not be able to get here. But Shi Jiu can get here only because of his own willpower. It is strong and determined enough. Secondly, I have been practicing here every day these days, and I have slowly adapted to the environment here, otherwise I would not have been able to get here.
Shi Jiu sat cross-legged at the foot of a mountain wall and began to comprehend.
For several days, Shi Jiu sat cross-legged on the edge of the central area of the large crack.
"Strange, why do I clearly feel that I haven't understood the dark laws here yet, but no matter what I do, I can't go any further?" Shi Jiubai was puzzled. This situation had been going on for two days.
"Forget it, we'll talk about the camp first." Shi Jiu stood up and left, heading towards the camp.
On the way back, Shi Jiu found a few more ink shadow grasses, then picked them all and put them into the storage ring.
