Baiyan City boundary, Tianyun Sect
As the spirit gathering array continues to operate, a steady stream of spiritual energy from heaven and earth gathers and pours into the spirit array in the valley.
But after such a strong spiritual energy entered the spirit gathering array, it penetrated into the ground at an alarming speed and disappeared.
In the spirit gathering array, many disciples who were preparing to receive the spirit opening were concentrating on condensing their dantian.
However, at this time, only a small amount of spiritual energy entered the body, and most of the spiritual energy slipped away from them quietly, and the speed was so fast that it was difficult to catch.
After noticing this unusual anomaly, the disciples closed their eyes and frowned, their hearts numb with anxiety, restless like ants on a hot pot.
It is not difficult to predict that at such an important and critical moment, there is no sufficient supply of spiritual energy. It's like a car climbing a steep slope without fuel supply. This is simply unimaginable.
But even if they noticed something strange, many disciples did not dare to interrupt their spiritual opening ceremony at will.
After all, they worked so hard to come here just to be able to successfully open their spirits and become spiritual cultivators.
Although he could only absorb a little bit of spiritual energy, it was better than nothing. Moreover, they have never experienced this ritual process, and they do not know that the reason for the lack of spiritual energy is that there is a problem with the spirit gathering array. They only think that it may be due to their dull qualifications. The only thing they can do at this time is seize the time and make use of it. If you have too much spiritual energy, you can successfully open your spiritual energy as soon as possible.
Therefore, with insufficient spiritual energy, many disciples went all out to speed up as much as possible.
This thin spiritual energy feels like it will be interrupted at some point. If he cannot successfully open his spiritual energy by then, it will mean the fate of being expelled from the sect.
Contrary to everyone's situation,
At this moment, Qiye was enjoying swallowing the huge amount of spiritual energy. The reason why he dared to make such a big move was all thanks to the perfect shield of the Hunyuan Refining Realm. No one noticed and he could do whatever he wanted.
Furthermore, everyone is busy with their own affairs, so who would have time to interrupt the ceremony to care about the situation of the people next to them?
Outside the spirit gathering array, Elder Shuizhi was pacing back and forth anxiously, looking at the disciples in the spirit array with great worry.
Judging from their situation, this spiritual opening must have gone very poorly.
Then, Elder Shuizhi looked into the depths of the spiritual formation, and saw a young man sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a relaxed and indifferent expression on his face, as if he was sleeping peacefully.
He was very puzzled: What happened to this little doll? Everyone else looked solemn, why did he look relaxed?
Driven by curiosity, he took out a jade slip, which recorded the performance of this group of new disciples in the assessment.
"Eh~ No wonder he is so calm, it turns out this kid is so talented!" Comparing the basic information in the jade slip, Elder Shuizhi suddenly understood:
Qiye is the only one among their group of unopened spiritual disciples who has the talent of earth spirit root.
"I see... Having good talent makes a difference."
Elder Shuizhi took it for granted and subjectively interpreted Qiye's calm performance as the superiority of his natural talent.
After putting the jade slips away, he took out a sound transmission shell again, muttered a few words, and then continued to pay attention to the spirit gathering array.
After a while, several figures came through the air and landed outside the spirit gathering array. Among these figures, there was the sect leader Shui Hanyan who had left before.
"Zhi Lao, what on earth is going on?" Shui Hanyan asked seriously.
"Sect Master, for some reason, after the spirit gathering array was opened, the spiritual energy suddenly penetrated into the ground, causing a serious shortage of spiritual energy in the array." Elder Shuizhi immediately stepped forward to report in detail.
"Have you checked the spiritual formation?" asked another elder.
"It has been checked, and there is nothing abnormal outside the spiritual array. It's just that now that the spiritual array is open, it is difficult to enter the array to check." Elder Shuizhi answered truthfully.
"Since there is nothing unusual outside the formation, how could it be leaked inside the formation?" Shui Hanyan frowned after hearing the situation.
This was the first time she had seen such a situation. In the past, before every spiritual opening ceremony, someone would check the spiritual array in detail, and everything went smoothly. Why did something go wrong this time?
"Let's do this. After the spiritual formation stops, everyone can enter the formation and take a closer look!" Shui Hanyan suggested after thinking for a while.
Now that the spirit formation has been activated, even if he takes action himself, he cannot stop the spirit gathering formation immediately. Moreover, doing so will interrupt the process of spiritual separation. Although a large amount of spiritual energy leaks out of the spiritual array, it can at least be managed.
The purpose of designing the Spirit Gathering Array is:
This is to ensure that those who accept spiritual enlightenment can successfully open their spirits in one go without being disturbed by anyone.
Secondly, once the spirit-gathering array is in operation, a large amount of spiritual energy will be gathered in the array. When such a huge amount of spiritual energy encounters the forcible action of a huge external force, the unstable energy will explode instantly. People in the array and outside the array will be It's a fatal injury.
Immediately, a group of people stood outside the spirit gathering array and waited quietly.
Seeing the spiritual energy that is still flowing away in the formation, the elders are heartbroken. This is the spiritual energy that was obtained by spending high-grade spiritual stones. It is like white money flowing away like water.
At such a high cost, I wonder how many people can successfully become spiritually enlightened? But don’t accomplish nothing!
The sect leader and the elders, everyone kept praying in their hearts.
In the spiritual formation, Qiye still worked tirelessly to swallow the huge spiritual energy. The spiritual energy like a torrent was injected into the Huntian Wheel, and was ground into pure spiritual liquid in minutes.
More and more trickling streams of spiritual fluid are nourishing the eclipsed spiritual stars in the spiritual world. With the spiritual power of so many spiritual fluids nourishing the spiritual stars, one after another they are completely lit up...
After about three hours, the energy of the stone pillars of the Spirit Gathering Formation was basically exhausted, and the Spirit Formation slowly came to a standstill.
Qiye gathered his breath skills and let out a long, faint breath. After several hours of full recovery, all 30,000 spiritual stars were lit up. Their brilliance was as bright and dazzling as the Milky Way in the Nine Heavens.
Thirty thousand spiritual stars reunited into three nebulae with different postures, floating peacefully in the spiritual world.
Finally, his spiritual power has been perfected, which means that he has returned to the perfection of "the first level of the early war level", and his combat strength is comparable to the ordinary "nineth level of the late war level".
The timeline is extended to 2.1 times, and the soul power reaches 10,000 points.
Enjoying the feeling of full strength and refreshment, Qiye smiled with satisfaction.
At this time, Shui Hanyan, the leader of Tianyun Sect, had already led the elders into the spirit gathering array and took a glance:
There are more than 500 soul-opening disciples, but only about 40 to 50 have successfully opened their souls. The success rate is only 10%. This result fell below everyone's expectations.
Before this, the success rate of opening a spirit every time through the Spirit Gathering Array was at least 80%!
This year's success rate is truly the lowest in Tianyun Sect's history since its founding.
If it were spread, wouldn't it damage the sect's prestige?
Elder Shuizhi wiped his forehead with a very expression on his face. He didn't expect that something like this happened to him while on duty, and he could not escape the blame.
"What's going on? I'm so close!"
"Me too, me too..."
"Why is this happening?!"
…………
The disciples who woke up from their enlightenment state one after another shouted:
Obviously I have already felt something, and I just need the final touch. But why does that feeling never come, and is so far away? It's extremely annoying.
"Why is this happening? Why is this happening?" Kuo Shaoxiang Lifu shouted in disbelief in the crowd.
At this moment, the spiritual power emanating from his body showed that he had successfully opened his spirit, but this spiritual power was very weak, and he could only be regarded as barely entering the elementary stage, but it was not the perfect and vigorous one.
Xianglifu murmured with absent-minded eyes. He was extremely disappointed at this moment. Originally, he could use the family elixir to open his spirit, but the elixir's ability to open his spirit was not as strong and solid as the spiritual formation's ability to open his spirit.
The most important thing for spiritual practitioners is to have a solid foundation.
Therefore, many families send their children to the sect, hoping that with the help of the sect's spirit gathering array, the family's children can take the first and most critical step in their cultivation.
And he is a member of this kind of family. Before this, Xianglifu had taken a lot of pills that strengthened the body and helped to open up the spirit.
Such a large amount of medicinal power is quietly settling in his body, waiting for the spiritual opening ceremony to awaken this energy that has been buried for many years.
With the help of the huge spiritual energy in the spirit gathering array and the strong medicinal power of the elixir in his body, Xiang Lifu planned to directly attack the second level of the junior level.
In this way, among his peers, he has directly won at the starting line.
However, I never expected it, I never expected it!
Because of the lack of spiritual energy, I reluctantly succeeded in opening the spirit, but before I had time to solidify the foundation, the spiritual opening ceremony was over.
If it were not for the help of medicine, it is still unknown whether he could successfully open his spirit.
This made him, who had been preparing for many years and working hard to show off his skills and make a big splash, how could he accept such a bloody result!
I had originally imagined that through this successful spiritual enlightenment, I would directly advance to the second level of elementary level, stand out among many disciples, and be vigorously cultivated by the sect.
Unexpectedly, all hope failed in the end, and everyone was lost.
Xiang Lifu looked around the spiritual formation with eyes full of frustration, and suddenly his eyes flashed:
He saw Qiye in the corner of the spiritual formation, and at this moment, his whole body was exuding elementary-level spiritual power. The difference between him and Qiye is that the spiritual power emitted by Qiye is stronger and more powerful, in the true sense, primary spiritual power, while he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, with no appearance at all.
After Qiye achieved the Great Perfection of spiritual power, he slightly controlled the Hunyuan Refining Realm to release a stable primary level of spiritual power.
And the reason for doing this is: if you can't successfully open the spirit even with the talent of your own earth spirit root, it will be too unreasonable. After all, you will be the earth spirit root that crushes everyone.
He raised his eyes and looked around. Because of himself, most of the people around him had not been able to successfully open their spirits. He could only express his deep regret in his heart.
As for guilt, there is none: the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be taken by those who are able.
He also believes that if such a result occurs, the sect will not just let it go.
"Quiet! All the new disciples who have been selected, listen! The disciples who have successfully opened their souls will follow the elders to arrange their residence. The disciples who have not successfully opened their souls, don't be disappointed. This sect leader will give you another chance. Three After a few months, the Spirit Gathering Array will be opened again."
Just when the disciples were discussing and the situation was getting out of control, the sect leader Shui Hanyan suddenly spoke, with a clear voice filled with spiritual power, and suppressed the situation with one word.
These words were like a timely rain, which made many disappointed and depressed disciples cheer up and look at the sect master with eyes filled with gratitude.
Qiye is also very satisfied with the results of the sect's handling. If he is not here next time, more people will be able to succeed.
"Take them down, Zhi Lao." Shui Hanyan said immediately without waiting for the disciples to respond and thank them.
Qiye got up, wiped the dust, and followed everyone out of the spiritual formation with some reluctance.
Looking at the empty spirit gathering array, Shui Hanyan sternly ordered: "Check everything carefully!"
"Yes!" Several elders behind him responded in unison and quickly separated. During several ups and downs, the elders each found a place and carefully inspected the surface of the Spirit Gathering Formation inch by inch.
