I don't know how long it took, but Lin Yun slowly woke up.
"How long has it been? Hiss."
As soon as Lin Yun moved, the injuries on his body caused him great pain.
"Let's heal first."
Lin Yun took three healing elixirs in one breath, activated the Heaven-Devouring Earth-Devouring Art, and began to frantically refine the elixirs.
Half an hour later, Lin Yun opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
"The injury is almost healed, the spiritual energy has been restored, and the ability to protect yourself is there. But the one outside."
Lin Yun thought of the power of the Earth Demon Bear and shook his head. Lin Yun looked at the cave where he was hiding and found that it was still extending inside and getting wider and wider. Lin Yun took out a sword and walked slowly inside. go.
After walking about a few hundred meters, Lin Yun found light appearing in front of him, which made Lin Yun feel happy.
"Could that be the exit?"
Lin Yun quickened his pace and rushed out of the cave entrance. Only then did he realize that there was a huge sinkhole in front of him. He was at the bottom of the sinkhole. Above the sinkhole were lush trees, which just blocked the view above. , there are green grass below, and a small pool, and in the center, a small thatched house stands in the middle of the grass.
Lin Yun immediately adjusted his clothes and bowed his hands.
"Junior Lin Yun accidentally entered the place where seniors are practicing. I still hope that seniors will respect you."
The moment Lin Yun saw the thatched house, he immediately thought of some senior masters in the Black Cloud Mountains who practiced in the mountains to avoid being disturbed. Lin Yun thought that this was one of them.
After several breaths passed without any movement, Lin Yun spoke again.
"Junior Lin Yun accidentally entered the place where seniors are practicing. I still hope that seniors will respect you."
The sound was a little louder, but there was still no movement in the thatched house.
"Senior, please forgive me for being rude."
Lin Yun saw that there was no movement, so he walked towards the thatched house.
"Squeak!"
Lin Yun gently pushed open the door of the thatched house.
"Senior, are you there?"
Lin Yun asked again, but there was still no answer.
Lin Yun looked into the room. There was only a table and a stool. There was a pot and a cup on the table. They were all covered with thick dust. It looked like no one had lived there for a long time.
"Could it be that the senior left?"
Lin Yun walked into the room and found a bed to the east, with a skeleton sitting cross-legged on the bed.
Lin Yun was startled, thinking that the senior was there.
"It turns out that the owner here has died."
Lin Yun walked forward and found a line of words carved on the wooden board of the bed.
"My name is Zhang Tianhai. I woke up when I was sixteen and started practicing cultivation. The major sects refused to accept me on the grounds that I was too old and would be difficult to achieve in the future. I was unwilling to accept it, so I became a casual cultivator and practiced for fifty years. I will eventually practice my martial arts to the realm of rebirth, but when I enter the realm of life and death, I will be injured by the catastrophe. When I come here, my injuries will never be recovered. I am not willing to accept it, I am not willing to accept it."
The last few words are engraved very deeply, and you can see the despair and loss of this person at the end.
“Cultivation is so difficult and arduous, and the world only sees the practitioners’ glory, but who can see the white bones on the road to cultivation?”
Lin Yun not only felt a little emotional, but also saluted the skeleton.
"The world says you should be laid to rest. Senior, let me let you be laid to rest."
Lin Yun stepped forward and picked up the bones.
With a "ding" sound, Lin Yun looked down and saw that a ring had fallen off the skeleton's finger.
"Storage ring."
Lin Yun picked up the ring and recognized it at a glance.
Putting the ring in his arms, Lin Yun arranged the bones, dug a pit outside, put the bones in, buried them, built a grave, carved a tombstone, and bowed again.
"Senior, rest in peace."
"It's better than the realm of rebirth, but it's hard to escape death. As for myself, if I don't work hard, I'm afraid I will be the next one in the grave."
Lin Yun sighed with emotion. Then, Lin Yun calmed down and took out the storage ring.
Since the original owner was dead, Lin Yun entered easily.
First of all, there was a space of more than 300 cubic meters. The first thing that attracted Lin Yun was that there were more than 20 large boxes inside. Half of the boxes contained gold and silver items, totaling 150,000 taels.
The other box contains neatly arranged spirit stones, estimated to number tens of thousands.
What attracted Lin Yun most was the small box above. There were only a few hundred spiritual stones in it, but these spiritual stones were very crystal clear and the spiritual energy was also very majestic.
"Could this be a middle-grade spiritual stone?"
Spiritual stones are divided into four levels, low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. Lin Yun saw all the low-grade spiritual stones. This was the first time he had seen medium-grade spiritual stones, and he had never heard of high-grade spiritual stones.
There was a shelf for weapons on the other side, including swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, everything was available. Lin Yun took out a sword and saw a faint aura emanating from the sword.
"Could it be a spiritual weapon?"
Lin Yun took out his hundred-refined steel sword and brought the two swords together. In an instant, the hundred-refined steel sword was broken into two sections, while the other sword was unscathed.
"It is indeed a spiritual weapon, extremely sharp."
Lin Yun put the sword beside him, continued to explore, and found several more techniques in the ring.
"Mountain-Shaking Fist, third grade and advanced level."
"Fu Feng Palm, third grade advanced."
"Heaven-Splitting Sword, third-grade upper level."
"Golden Body Art, huh? There is no rank."
"Flying Immortal Steps, fourth grade lower level."
"Spirit Snake Whip, third level middle grade."
I read several books in a row, that is, you can learn the Feixian Step, but not the others. I originally wanted to practice the body-building technique called Golden Body Art, but the defects were too serious, and only the first level was available.
According to the records in the book, there are at least nine levels, and the training is very demanding. It requires extremely cold and hot places. In short, the easier it is to die, the easier it is to practice.
"This is simply a method to seek death!"
Lin Yun threw the book aside casually, and dug out some miscellaneous items, except that there was no elixir. But it was right to think about it. All of them should have been consumed during the healing process, and there should be nothing left. Later, Lin Yun took out the Qingling Fruit.
"I fought hard to get you. Now, it's time to try your effectiveness."
The Qingling Fruit was about the same size as an egg. Lin Yun swallowed it in two mouthfuls. Soon, a burst of spiritual energy began to flow out.
Lin Yun immediately sat cross-legged and started refining.
Soon, the eighth level of body tempering was broken.
The ninth level of body tempering is broken.
And the spiritual energy has not been used up yet.
"No, I can't break through anymore. If I break through the day after tomorrow, I won't be able to deal with the catastrophe at all. Suppress me."
Lin Yun used the Heaven-Devouring Earth-Devouring Technique to suppress the restless spiritual energy.
"It was almost a big mistake. The aura of this Qingling Fruit is too terrifying."
"Boy, that's good. You're not fooled by the petty profit in front of you."
"That's me, Lin Yun, who is it? Who's talking?"
A voice suddenly appeared, and Lin Yun immediately became alert. He took out his sword and looked around cautiously.
It was still quiet here, with no one around.
"Did I hear it wrong, or did I hallucinate?"
"Boy, stop looking for me, I'm here for you."
The voice sounded again.
At this time, Lin Yun was completely stunned.
"On me, stone plate!"
Lin Yun sat cross-legged and entered the sea of consciousness. Sure enough, on the stone plate, an old man with a white beard sat cross-legged, stroking his beard and looking at Lin Yun.
