The loess stretches as far as the eye can see.
The mountains in the distance also look yellow and white.
At a glance, there seems to be no other colors in this world, no greenery, and no trace of life.
The high-altitude sun shines on this cold land, and it also faintly reflects the metallic luster.
It is as if this world is made of a huge mass of steel, dry and cold.
Time does not seem to exist here.
I don’t know how long it took, but a hanging portal suddenly opened above this dead world.
The portal slowly opened.
Boohoo!
Hundreds of rays of light bloom from the portal.
At the same time, enter this world from that portal.
They were held hostage by mysterious power in mid-air, shooting towards all directions of the earth, and scattered randomly on the land.
Until all the brilliance has disappeared in this world.
Cang! The hanging door suddenly closed.
The eyes moved to a low-lying area in this loess land.
There are some unusual colors here.
The black unknown liquid gathered in the low-lying land and formed a small lake, about two or three miles long and wide.
The black lake did not reflect a trace of light under the brilliance of the sun.
It seemed as if all the light was swallowed up by the liquid the moment it hit.
Phew! With the flash of a golden light.
A beam of light falling from the portal in the sky suddenly fell on the edge of the lake.
The light dissipated, revealing a handsome young man in loose green clothes.
He has an elegant manner and a calmness as quiet as a valley.
As soon as he appeared, the young man's eyes showed alertness, and his deep pupils looked around, taking in the surrounding environment.
After confirming that there was no danger, his expression relaxed.
Kong Zhen looked at the scene he saw, the earth full of metal texture, and the lifeless mountains in the distance without a trace of green, and murmured softly: "This place is really Echoing the record of Dageng Zhijing in "Xianji"."
The words just finished.
Phew! A breeze suddenly blew from the distant land and blew past Kong Ji's body inadvertently.
Kong Jin didn’t care at first.
Soon he frowned.
I saw that the robe he was wearing had several cuts cut out in the breeze.
Not only that, his skin exposed to the air also felt painful when the breeze blew by, as if countless tiny blades had scratched it.
Feeling the slight pain on his skin, Kongji subconsciously activated his spiritual power.
Colorless spiritual power instantly floats on the surface of the body, blocking out the breeze.
“There is something weird in this wind!” Kong Ji secretly thought, and he immediately opened his virtual vision and observed the obviously weird breeze blowing over.
Through Xu Po's vision, he could clearly see that the breeze coming from all directions was mixed with golden light.
It is as thin as a hair. Although there are not many in number, every ray of light has an astonishing sharpness.
Kong's clothes were scratched just now, but what made his skin feel painful was the golden light mixed in the breeze.
Kong Jin stretched out his hand, pinched it with two fingers, grabbed a wisp of light in the wind, and then held it close to his eyes to observe.
It can be seen that the ray of light is wrapped by Kong Ji's spiritual power, and it is still bursting out with sharp power, trying to get rid of Kong Ji's control.
Kong Zhi squinted at this scene and spoke softly to evaluate the power of this light:
"What a pure golden aura, a monk in the ascending wheel realm can resist it. But if a monk in the raising wheel realm encounters This golden wind will probably be cut into several pieces on the spot."
After saying that, Kong Zhi relaxed his fingers slightly, and the golden light was still flowing from his fingertips.
He finally understood why the birthplace of the Great Geng Spirit was barren of grass.
“This world is really weird, even the wind is filled with the power of sharp gold.”
“But this golden spiritual power is a great supplement for sword cultivators. It is simply a sword The Holy Land of Cultivation." Kong Xian sighed, having a new understanding of the ancient city of Chao Di.
But now is not the time to worry about these things.
Now that we have arrived at the ancient city of Chaodi, the next step is to think about how to get the opportunity.
Kong Ji suddenly raised his head, turned his virtual vision with all his strength, and looked at the sky of this world.
The sky is clear and blue, with no clouds in sight.
Obviously, Kong Ji did not see what he was looking for.
He had to retract his gaze and muttered: "The ancient city of Chao Di is suspended in the sky. It is a city in the clouds. I can see more than two hundred miles with my weak vision, but I really did not see the ancient city."
“How big is this world?”
Fortunately, this is not the first time that Kong Jin has come to this kind of space similar to a blessed land.
The Xihuang Paradise and the Qinghu Paradise are both comparable in area to a region. The space in the ancient imperial city did not surprise Kong Xian.
After thinking for a moment, he took out the order passed down from generation to generation.
He thought to himself that since the order of inheritance is the key to entering the space of the ancient imperial city, it must show something.
Sure enough, a ray of golden light appeared on the surface of the ancient token in Chaodi Ancient City.
It is like a pointer, pointing in the direction of the left front of Kongji. The meaning is self-evident.
“That’s it!” A smile just appeared on Kong Jiang’s face, and then he put away the order of inheritance and was about to stand up in the sky.
But before taking off, his ethereal vision that had been open did not close.
Before, I had been paying attention to the power of sharp gold in the wind.
Ignoring the sharp golden energy at the moment, he saw a cluster of brilliance in the black lake on the side with his peripheral vision.
The light appeared blue and black for a fleeting moment, and was quickly obscured by the black liquid.
If it weren’t for Kong Ji’s meticulousness, he would have almost ignored it.
This discovery made Kong Ji put aside the idea of setting off immediately, turned his virtual vision with all his strength, and turned to look at this weird lake.
In this dry world filled with golden spiritual power, it is a strange thing for a black lake to appear.
Kong Jin didn’t think about it carefully before, but looking at it now, it just feels weird.
He had never seen a lake of this color.
After the brilliance of the sun shines into the lake, not even a trace of light is reflected, as if it has been swallowed up by it.
What surprised Kong Zhen even more was that his imaginary vision could not see through the lake, as if there was a barrier blocking his vision.
Its extremely deep and pure black color gives people some bad feelings.
Kong Jin took a closer look and roughly understood where the problem lay.
Looking along his ethereal vision, there was a rich black spiritual power spreading in the sky above the black lake.
Kong Zhen stretched out his hand to pick up a ball and placed it in his palm. He could feel the moist feeling brought by the black spiritual power between his fingers.
“It’s water-based spiritual energy!” Kong Jiang found out the reason and waved his hand to disperse the group of spiritual energy.
"Gold generates water! This world filled with sharp golden spiritual energy naturally has the cycle of the five elements in it."
After saying that, Kong Ji looked at the black lake again, his eyes suddenly It has become different.
This black liquid is completely pure water-based spiritual power. It’s no wonder that my ethereal vision cannot see through it.
If there are monks who practice water-based exercises, they can turn them into their own cultivation without much refining.
"And such rich water-based spiritual power has condensed into a liquid, and spiritual things must breed in it."
"The fleeting brilliance just now must be spiritual things."
< br>Kong Ji suddenly smiled as he spoke. Sometimes his luck would bring unexpected surprises.
Such a big world just happened to land here. After thinking about it, he slapped the storage bag on his waist with his palm.
Phew! A figure covered in black tights appeared beside him.
You can see from the little skin exposed on his face mask that its skin is blood red.
It is a refining puppet made from the corpse of Xianyu Yanhe.
With the strength of the ghost spirit realm, he is a puppet refiner himself, and his physical body is extremely strong. Coupled with the ninth level desolate beast blood essence, ordinary ghost spirit monks cannot defeat it.
The deep pool in front of me cannot even be penetrated by Kong Ji's vision.
Who knows if there will be any danger inside. Of course, such a risky matter must be explored with Lian Puppet.
“Let’s go!” As soon as Xianyu Yanhe appeared, he rushed towards the black water lake under the control of Kong Ji.
Poof! With a splash of water, Lian Puppet's entire body disappeared into the water.
At the same time, Kong Ji gently tapped his eyebrows with his fingers, and the golden bean of spiritual consciousness immediately emitted brilliance.
The God Training Puppet is activated.
Kong Ji’s consciousness entered Lian Puppet’s body.
Through the perception of Lian Puppet's body, the first thing Kong Ji felt was the coldness of the black black water, and it had a sticky feeling, wrapping Lian Puppet like a swamp.
Fortunately, this Lianpuppet's physical body is strong enough. Although its speed is hindered by the black water, it can still move freely in the water.
Kong Fu controlled the Lian Puppet to go deeper and deeper.
He discovered that the lake was not just as small as it seemed.
It's very deep under the water.
Lian Puppet continued downstream for several miles before finally touching the bottom of the lake.
Due to the characteristic of black water swallowing up light, there is no light at all underwater, and it is even more difficult to see under the water, making vision completely useless.
Kong Jin had to use the puppet refining to activate the power of his spiritual consciousness, and use his spiritual consciousness to spy on the scene under the lake bottom.
The strange thing is that the power of Kong Zhen's consciousness can now cover a radius of nearly a thousand feet in the outside world.
But it was weakened more than ten times under the lake bottom.
Only a hundred feet in radius can be seen.
“This water is so weird that it can even consume the power of spiritual consciousness.” Kong Zhi sighed secretly and wanted to control the Lian Puppet to move under the water.
Since the range covered by divine consciousness is limited, let the Lian Puppet move.
At this moment, a flash of brilliance once again flickered under the bottom of the lake.
Its color is blue with black in it, exactly the same as the brilliance Kong Ji saw on the shore before.
And under the lake, the brilliance is particularly eye-catching.
A flash of light illuminated the bottom of the lake, which was originally invisible.
“The black water, which cannot even be penetrated by sunlight, was actually penetrated by the light.”
Kong Jin sighed, and in the moment when the light covered the surrounding area, he passed through Lian Puppet saw the source of the light.
It is a plant with a blue-black body and seven purple leaves.
The rhizome penetrates deeply into the bottom of the lake, which is as hard as steel, and blooms into strange flowers that are shaped like a lotus.
It’s a pity that the glory is fleeting.
Before Kong Xian had time to observe the plant carefully, the light emitted from its body suddenly converged.
Darkness returns again under the lake.
Kong Zhen recalled the appearance of the plant he just saw in his mind, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"That plant looks a bit like the three-grade elixir recorded in the book."
It was just that the time was too short, and Kong Ji did not have time to see some details, and the light disappeared.
But now that we have seen it, no matter whether it is a panacea or not, there is no reason to just let it go.
Immediately control the refining puppet and swim towards the source of the light just now.
Although the black water has great resistance, the bottom of the lake is only three miles in diameter.
Soon, Lian Puppet swam to the location of the plant in his memory.
As the distance got closer and closer, the blue-black light emitted by the plant finally became clear, illuminating Lian Puppet's face.
The appearance of the plant was also noticed by Kong Geng.
His perspective is mainly fixed on the blue and black lotus flowers.
In the center of the stamen, there is a mass of black fruit, with occasional flashes of blue-black light.
The source of the light just now was the fruit bursting out from the center of the flower.
Seeing this, Kong Ji's eyes shrank slightly, and then he showed unconcealable joy, and blurted out four words: "Soul Lotus!"
Soul Lotus, a third-grade elixir. , the main material for refining soul-reviving pills.
For a monk, the damage to the soul is greater than the damage to the body. In serious cases, not only will the cultivation level drop, but even the life may be lost.
Nowadays, there are almost no elixirs that can heal the soul in the whole world, and there is almost no possibility of healing the damaged soul.
The reason is that the Soul-Born Lotus disappeared from the Xianyun Realm thousands of years ago before the spiritual inspiration changed.
How can we refine the soul-reviving pill without the main materials for refining the soul-reviving pill?
The reason why it appeared in this ancient imperial city is naturally self-evident.
This is a space of its own, and changes in outside ideas will not affect this place at all.
Thinking of this, Kong Zhi didn't hesitate at all, controlled the refining puppet and carefully folded off the soul lotus flower.
He did not harm the root of the Soul Lotus.
In the current world of Xianyun, which is short of spiritual resources, the existence of any extinct spiritual plant must be carefully protected.
It is impossible to say that under the moisture of this black water, it may be possible for the soul lotus to grow again.
And this Soul Lotus is probably the only one. It would be harmful to Tianhe if it were to be uprooted.
As an alchemist, Kong Xian would not do such a thing.
"Haha, it's just an unexpected surprise. If this soul-birthing lotus is placed in Xunyu Pavilion, its value will be at least two hundred thousand spiritual crystals. If it is refined into a soul-birthing pill, its value will be even more. Double it.”
Kong Xian looked at the Soul Lotus in his hand and laughed.
Don't wait for him to be immersed in the joy of getting the elixir for too long.
Buzz!
Under his feet, the bottom of the lake, which was like fine iron, suddenly began to tremble.
The vibration directly caused the flow of the entire black lake.
The entire black water lake became boiling.
The sudden change made Kong Chi feel solemn, and he quickly controlled the puppet to put the soul lotus into his arms.
Then his head turned and looked at the source of the vibration.
With the help of the brilliance emanating from the soul lotus in his arms, Kong Ji saw the outline of a black giant beast, slowly rising from the bottom of the lake.
Because the light was too dark, Kong Ji could not see its appearance clearly, and could only vaguely see an outline.
Its huge body tore the bottom of the lake and walked out of the crack.
A pair of blood-red eyes, like two lanterns, opened in the black mountain water, with undisguised anger in their eyes.
A ferocious aura swept through the bottom of the black water lake and pressed on Lian Puppet's body.
"Transform into a soul!" Through the puppet refining, Kong Ji sensed the exact level of strength of this giant beast, and his eyes immediately changed.
Soul Transformation is the final state of the Ascending Wheel Realm.
Ordinary ascending wheel monks and soul-transforming monks are at two levels, and there is absolutely no possibility of winning.
This conclusion can be drawn by referring to the battle between Kong Ji and Day and Wind.
And Kong Xian felt that as soon as the giant beast appeared, his eyes were fixed on the soul-producing lotus in Lianpuppet's clothes.
The meaning is self-evident. (End of this chapter)
