Chapter 602 Return to the Secret Soul-Nursing Realm
In the Soul-Nursing Secret Realm, the bright stars are densely covered in the night sky.
Under this gorgeous night, the light blue star grass on the hills is also shining, exuding a dreamy luster.
In the past, the restrictions placed on these mountains caused considerable trouble to Li Qing, and it took a lot of effort to crack one of them.
However, for Li Qing now, it was nothing. He easily broke through the restrictions on each mountain peak, successfully entered the medicine garden, and picked individual Sky Star Grasses.
Almost all of the Star Grass growing here are precious spiritual grasses that are over a thousand years old. Taking out just one of them will cause quite a stir.
Faced with such a fortune, Li Qing's heart did not waver at all. His face was calm and his mood did not fluctuate.
For him, there is no need to sell these Heavenly Star Grasses in exchange for spirit stones, just because the number of spirit stones in the sect is very sufficient.
The most important thing right now is obviously to complete the treatment of the hidden injury in his soul.
When he thought of this, Li Qing picked the star grass without hesitation.
He saw a two-thousand-year-old Sky Star Grass plant being uprooted by him.
After patting the soil stained with crystal blue roots, Li Qing directly stuffed the entire spiritual grass into his mouth, chewed it twice casually like a cow chewing a peony, and then swallowed it. .
If this scene were to be seen by alchemists from the outside world, they would definitely be heartbroken. It is such a waste of natural resources!
If this extremely precious thousand-year-old spiritual grass can be refined into elixirs, it will definitely exert its greatest medicinal effect.
If taken alone, although the effect is not bad, it is still not as good as refining it into specific pills.
For example, the legendary Star Soul Pill is made from Sky Star Grass as the main ingredient. With other auxiliary ingredients, several Star Soul Pills can be refined in one furnace.
The effectiveness of each Star Soul Pill is no less than the Millennium Star Grass!
"Alas, it's a pity that I don't know how to alchemy, so I can only do such wasteful things."
In fact, Li Qing didn't feel much regret in his heart about this.
First of all, alchemists are not that easy to find!
Secondly, it is not easy to find elixirs that use Sky Star Grass as the main ingredient to nourish the spiritual consciousness and repair the hidden wounds of the divine soul.
Rather than wasting that time, it would be better to swallow the Star Grass directly, which would be more trouble-free.
After all, the amount of Star Grass in the Soul-nurturing Secret Realm is quite large, enough to cause an uproar in the outside world!
In this way, Li Qing swallowed the star grass one by one. Each one was at least a thousand years old.
He doesn’t even look down on those star grasses that are less than a thousand years old.
The strong medicinal power spread in Li Qing's body. He immediately concentrated and began to refine the power of the Tianxing herbal medicine in his body.
Buzz!
Soon, he felt refreshed, as if his whole body had received a deep baptism inside and outside!
This is the role of Sky Star Grass!
Immediately afterwards, the hidden wound in his soul finally began to be repaired slowly, bit by bit, and the progress was extremely slow.
"Alas, this hidden injury to the soul is really so difficult to repair. With so many thousand-year-old star grass, the effect is not as significant as imagined."
Li Qing sighed softly and picked a thousand-year star grass again. Put it in your mouth.
With this repetition, time passes bit by bit.
In this soul-nurturing secret realm, time seemed to have lost its sense. Li Qing kept repeating mechanical movements. Once the medicinal power of the Sky Star Grass was refined, he picked it again and stuffed it into his mouth.
In this way, on the hilltop where he was, he had almost picked all the thousand-year-old star grass.
During this period, he even swallowed two spiritual herbs that were four to five thousand years old. The power of the medicine was unimaginable, making Li Qing feel like he was ascending.
Gradually, the Tianxingcao, which was about a thousand years old, no longer had much effect on him.
“Is this resistance to medicine?”
Li Qing frowned. The medicinal power of the nearly thousand-year-old star grass he just swallowed was actually harmful to his body. The Soul's Dark Injury didn't have much effect.
This is not good news. The drug resistance came too quickly, and the hidden injury in his soul has not been completely repaired.
The originally harmonious soul still had a slight flaw.
Although this slight hidden injury no longer has much impact, Li Qing likes to do things with perfection. Since he came here to repair it, he naturally wanted to repair it to the most perfect state.
“It seems we have to target those star grasses that are more than two thousand years old!”
In this way, Li Qing stood up and continued to climb to other peaks to pick older ones. Spiritual grass.
One mountain after another, all the spiritual herbs that were more than two thousand years old were picked by Li Qing.
Finally, Li Qing swallowed another five-thousand-year-old spiritual grass, and the hidden wound in his soul was finally healed!
At this moment, there is no longer any flaw in his soul!
Immediately afterwards, he tried to mobilize his spiritual power.
Soon he discovered that his spiritual power had suddenly grown to a very powerful level.
Boom!
Deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea!
Li Qing, who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain, slowly opened his eyes, and a mighty consciousness suddenly swept away.
No plant or tree around him can escape his perception, and he can keenly capture even the slightest fluctuations in the air.
“After all, after swallowing so many older Sky Star Grasses, my current spiritual consciousness, even the monks in the late stage of pill formation, are far from being able to compare with me!”
He How powerful is his soul?
Regarding this point, Li Qing did not dare to draw conclusions because he had never sensed how powerful the spiritual consciousness of Yuanying stage monks was.
But now he feels that his spiritual power is not much different from that of the monks in the Nascent Soul stage, or even almost the same!
“If I practice another spiritual power, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find many of my opponents during the pill formation stage!”
Li Qing was very satisfied with this. After saying this, he stood up.
But soon, there was a faint feeling of swelling and pain in the center of his forehead.
"Hiss! The power of the consciousness suddenly increased so much that the sea of consciousness felt a little burden!"
After getting used to the swelling and pain, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
This is not a fatal problem. As long as he adapts more in the future, he can adjust quickly.
With the power of his consciousness comparable to that of the Nascent Soul stage, Li Qing quickly swept through the entire soul-nurturing secret realm while flying.
Now that the trouble has been eliminated, he would like to explore if there are any other mysteries in this secret realm.
When he came in, he was only in the Qi refining period, and his knowledge was limited, so it was difficult to discover more secrets.
And now, he has become a monk in the elixir stage, and his soul power has greatly increased, and his perception ability has greatly improved. Deep in the secret realm of soul nourishing is where the mountain gate of the soul nourishing temple once stood.
The inside is still dilapidated and deserted, and nothing strange can be seen.
A stone tower stands inside the mountain gate. Each floor of the stone tower has several chains made of spiritual gold. The situation inside the stone tower is exactly the same as what Li Qing saw before.
In each layer of the stone tower, there are several withered bones tied around the neck by spiritual gold chains, as if some mysterious sacrifice is being held.
“The soul-nurturing bell was obtained from the stone tower. I don’t know what the dead bones in these towers want to do.”
“Could it be that the soul-nurturing bell is trying to Performing sacrifices?”
Li Qing, who had gained profound knowledge in the art of weapon refining, was curious at this time.
He tapped the storage bag and took out the soul-raising bell that had not been used for a long time.
Before he formed the elixir, this soul-nurturing bell could also bring him a lot of help. He only needed to practice it every day to increase the strength of his spiritual consciousness.
But after he formed the elixir, the soul-nurturing bell lost its effect, and its ring tone could no longer make his consciousness stronger.
Li Qing thought for a while, then went back to the highest level of the stone tower, and hung the soul-raising bell back on the top of the stone tower again.
At the highest level, there is an empty spiritual gold chain, which is not bound to a dead skeleton.
Li Qing narrowed his eyes, and then used his spiritual consciousness to sense what was so strange about this spiritual gold chain.
But the next moment, a sudden change occurred!
This spiritual gold chain seemed to have come alive, and it started to tremble slightly on its own initiative.
Such a change occurred after Li Qing’s spiritual consciousness came into contact!
After realizing this, Li Qing tried to take back his spiritual consciousness, but he found that his spiritual consciousness seemed to be pulled by some kind of force, and the power of his spiritual consciousness was continuously instilled into this spiritual gold chain. among.
Immediately afterwards, the crisp sound of chains shaking could be heard up and down the entire stone tower.
Li Qing's expression changed drastically, and he was startled by this strange situation. This situation was like these dead bones bound by spiritual gold chains coming back to life.
“These spiritual gold chains can absorb the power of spiritual consciousness. Where are you going to gather the power of my spiritual consciousness?”
Fortunately, these spiritual gold chains absorb the spiritual consciousness. The power wasn't too much, and Li Qing could barely bear it.
Now that he has a soul that is comparable to the Nascent Soul stage, he will naturally not be drained of all his soul power by this spiritual golden chain.
After a while, the entire stone tower shook again.
Bells, bells, bells!
The soul-nourishing bell began to tremble, emitting a series of crisp and pleasant bell tones.
Finally, the spiritual gold chain no longer drained Li Qing's spiritual power, as if he had been satisfied.
Li Qing did some calculations and found that the amount of spiritual power he had consumed was approximately the total spiritual power of a foundation-building monk.
If he had only cultivated in the foundation-building period, his spiritual power at that time would definitely not be enough to support such consumption, and he would be drained immediately and suffer heavy losses.
boom!
While Li Qing was meditating, a wave of fluctuation suddenly came from outside the stone tower.
Li Qing rushed out of the stone tower without saying a word.
On the top of the stone tower, a spiritual light burst into the sky full of bright stars.
A magical scene happened. The stars began to move at a scale visible to the naked eye.
The bright and brilliant stars are like glowing bugs, moving irregularly. This scene is simply a spectacle.
Above the starry night sky, these stars finally formed a strange pattern.
Li Qing could not understand the meaning of this pattern for a while and found it very confusing, but he still kept the starlight pattern firmly in his heart.
“Why does it feel like a map?”
“At the beginning, Yanghun Guan was just a cultivating force in the foundation-building stage, but it was able to make such a big move?”< br>
"No, how can a monk in the foundation-building stage open up a small secret realm?"
"Perhaps this stone tower is the work of the Soul Nourishment Temple, and the star patterns in the sky may involve something more distant. "
Soon, Li Qing seemed to have figured everything out, and muttered to himself:
"Yes, the strongest among the Soul Cultivators is no more than that. He is just a monk in the foundation building stage, so how can he refine such a strange magic weapon as the soul-nurturing bell?"
"I am afraid that the master of the soul-nurturing temple has received some inheritance, along with the soul-nurturing bell and so on. This soul-nurturing secret realm was inherited together.”
"This person created the Soul-Nursing Concept, attracted some monks to join him, and finally refined such a stone tower to absorb the power of these people's consciousness, drain it completely, and try to unlock the secrets in the night sky . ”
In the end, Li Qing felt that the soul-nurturing temple master should have failed, because one of the spiritual gold chains on the top of the stone tower was missing a dead bone.
I guess someone noticed something was wrong on the way and ran away!
“No, maybe it was a success. The master of Soul-raising Temple successfully sacrificed everyone’s souls, and finally survived and saw this star map in the night sky.”
“Forget it, there’s no point in worrying about this anymore. Now that this matter is over, it’s time to leave and return to the sect.”
At this time, the star map in the sky still did not dissipate, and continued to be imprinted on the night.
In this regard, Li Qing had no choice but to take out the jade pendant, preparing to open the door to leave the secret realm of nourishing the soul, and return to the sect.
But soon, the star map in the sky seemed to be guided by something. The bright stars gathered together and poured directly into the jade pendant in Li Qing's hand.
Boom!
Because the starlight was too dazzling, Li Qing even closed his eyes.
After a long time, the bright starlight finally dimmed.
Li Qing opened his eyes again, and he found that the jade pendant in his hand had become slightly warm at this moment.
In addition, there are some faint starlight patterns in the jade pendant.
In order to see more clearly, Li Qing probed out his consciousness.
With the help of his spiritual perception, Li Qing quickly discovered that the star map in the sky just now was imprinted on this jade pendant.
Not only that, at this time, a white light spot actually lit up in the reduced star map inside the jade pendant.
This light spot keeps flashing, very visible!
“Could this light point be where I am?”
“And where is this star map ultimately going to guide me?”
