Chapter 652 Fire Cliff Cave
Listening to Li Qing’s questions about the theory of spiritual roots, Lord Bailing just chuckled, then shook his head and said:
“These perceptions of yours, Right or wrong, if we only consider the human world of immortality, the fewer spiritual roots, the better.”
“Because the fewer spiritual roots, it means that it will be easier to practice and refine. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth will also be more pure.”
“But the Great Dao is fair. At the stage of transformation, monks can initially mobilize and control the energy of heaven and earth. At this time, the importance of the number of spiritual roots becomes highlighted. .”
"The more complete the Five Elements Spiritual Roots are, the smoother it will be to control the spiritual power of heaven and earth."
"And I heard that some powerful monks in the upper world will try their best to complete the Five Elements for themselves, consciously or unconsciously. Spiritual roots, there seems to be a mystery in this, but I don’t know.”
Li Qing listened carefully to Dao Lord Bailing’s words, and his eyes gradually brightened.
If what Lord Bai Ling said is true, then he is looking forward to his future practice even more.
The road is fair. It seems that the less is the better when it comes to spiritual root qualifications.
With Li Qing's active thinking, he can easily understand the meaning.
However, he did not get carried away, because at this time there was a very serious question before him, that is, how to break through to the Nascent Soul stage!
Thinking of this, Li Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly and said:
"That's not entirely true. As far as I know, monks with four or five spiritual roots, not to mention the gods. , I am afraid that this level of foundation building can block ninety-nine percent of the monks in the world."
"If you can't even do foundation building, how can you talk about becoming a god?"
But Bailing Taoist Master said indifferently:
“So I said, this is based on the monastic environment of the human world.”
“If you were born in the upper world, If you do, everything will be different. You are full of spiritual energy and extremely rich in heaven and earth energy. You can be said to be a truly outstanding person. You can imagine how smooth it will be to practice in that environment. "
Li Qingmou. The light moved slightly, and he spoke: "Senior Bai Ling seems to know a lot about things in the upper world? What kind of place is that? Is it really like what is recorded in ancient books, that everyone can live forever!"
As soon as these words came out, Bailing Daojun was slightly startled, and then said in a perfunctory tone: "In my time, there were many legends of ascended people that were clearly recorded. What I know are all from ancient books. Just look through it.”
It was clear that he didn't want to have an in-depth conversation on this topic, so Li Qing stopped delving further.
The other party was an upright and upright monk in the transformation stage. Isn't it normal to have some secrets about him?
In this way, both of them were silent for a while.
Finally, Cao Xiu, who had fallen into a deep coma, finally showed signs of waking up.
His fingertips moved slightly and his eyelids trembled slightly. It seemed that he was about to regain consciousness.
"Uh, this is hiss!"
As soon as he woke up, Cao Xiu was stimulated by the severe pain coming from his body and woke up immediately.
He opened his eyes and found that the surrounding environment was dim.
At this time, in his field of vision, there were two figures standing in front of him.
When Cao Xiu saw the illusory and thin figure of Lord Bai Ling, there was a strange look in his eyes, and then he murmured:
"Didn't I fall into the forest? Is this the legendary underworld?"
"So I am still dead, but why can I still feel such severe pain after death?"
>
At this moment, Cao Xiu tried to mobilize the magic power in his body, but because of the previous battle, his Dantian was already empty.
The only thing that came from the body was bursts of severe pain, and the meridians in the body felt like they were being burned.
At this moment, Li Qing finally spoke: "We haven't seen each other for many years. I didn't expect that the little guy from Qing Hua Pond would already have the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage in the blink of an eye."
"If Hu Sanniang sees you like this, I don't know whether she will be happy or regretful."
These words fell in Cao Xiu's ears, but they exploded in his mind like thunder. .
The time when he was practicing in Qinghua Pond as a child, but now few people in the world of immortality know about it!
Since his mother passed away, Hu Sanniang’s name has rarely been mentioned.
Cao Xiu raised his head with a shocked expression, and then looked at another tall figure in the dim environment.
At this moment, he remembered the vision that appeared in his mind when he was dying.
Practice is like sailing against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat!
In an instant, this sentence flashed through his mind.
“Practice is like sailing against the current. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. Are you Senior Li Qing?!”
Boom!
Cao Xiu felt goose bumps all over his body. The figure deep in his memory gradually overlapped with the tall figure in front of him.
Yes, it was the senior Li Qing who had taken good care of him in Qinghuatan.
Exactly the same. After so many years, Li Qing's appearance is still exactly the same as before, with almost no changes!
His temperament is still so leisurely and leisurely, with an air of youthfulness, as if time cannot leave any trace on his face.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to still remember the words I left casually. Yes, I can see that you have practiced very hard these years." Li Qing smiled and nodded.
Under Li Qing's inspection, Cao Xiu's nose felt slightly sore and he confirmed: "So I am not dead? This is really great. It was you, Senior Li, who saved me? The fire poison in my body."
< br>"I have removed the fire poison from your body, but how did you get into trouble with this robbery cultivator? This person controls so many fire jade bees, he is not a good person to deal with."
After hearing this, Cao Xiu looked slightly troubled for a while, but finally he made up his mind and took out a dark red picture scroll directly from the storage bag.
This picture scroll looks like it is sewn from some kind of animal skin, with crooked lines drawn on it, somewhat like a map, but there are no clear landmarks.
“It was probably seven years ago. At that time, I had not yet built the foundation. Just when I was planning to build the foundation, I suddenly received a spiritual letter from Senior Qingyang.”< br>
"He told me about a very secret place called Huoya Cave. The geothermal energy inside is extremely strong, and the paths extend in all directions, making it extremely complicated."
"In the Huoya Cave, there is a fire jade The bee's hive, Senior Qingyang said that as long as I can enter and tell him the specific location of the Fire Jade Bee's hive, he will give me a chance to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill. "
It was also that time. During the operation, the inexperienced Cao Xiu accidentally exposed his whereabouts, and only then did the robbery cultivator learn of the matter.
Perhaps he was also coveting the opportunity in the Fire Cliff Cave. The robbery cultivator did not publicize the matter widely, but instead captured some weak casual cultivators everywhere and let them enter the Fire Cliff Cave to help him. Pathfinding.
It can only be said that Cao Xiu's luck is really good. Under those circumstances, he actually found the location of the Fire Jade Bee's hive in a daze, and brought the news out alive, and And got some benefits.
Then, he got a precious Foundation Establishment Pill. He did not waste this Foundation Establishment Pill and successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Furthermore, there has been no substantial progress in the exploration of Huoya Cave. The robbery cultivator used some secret method to capture many Fire Jade Bees.
For this reason, the Fire Jade Bees in the Huoya Cave have become more ferocious and violent, and are no longer something ordinary monks can explore.
“Originally I was about to forget about the Huoya Cave, but just a while ago, in a secret auction I attended in Tianhefang City, this picture scroll actually appeared like this. "I recognized it at a glance. The strange route recorded in this picture scroll is the path of Huoya Cave!"
"For this reason, I naturally took the picture in my hands immediately, but I didn't expect that the robbery cultivator also participated in this secret auction. For this reason, I was followed by him all the way, and I was also attacked by him. . ”
Li Qing couldn’t help but narrowed his eyes after listening to Cao Xiu’s words.
Taoist Priest Qingyang!
This name is naturally familiar to him. The first Foundation Building Pill that Li Qing got in his life was refined from the hands of Taoist Priest Qingyang.
"Taoist Priest Qingyang, the secret auction, this Fire Cliff Cave seems not that simple."
Li Qing murmured to himself, and then subconsciously rubbed his chin.
At first he thought that the biggest opportunity in the Fire Cliff Cave was the Fire Jade Bee's hive, but then from Cao Xiu's words, Li Qing felt that it might not be that simple there.
"Now we have a map that is suspected to be the safe route inside Huoya Cave. Cao Xiu, I am somewhat interested in Huoya Cave. Would you like me to explore that place with you?"
< br>Cao Xiu had almost no hesitation about this request.
“Don’t say that Senior Li Qing saved my life. Even judging from the previous kindness, I will not refuse this matter!”
"Senior Li, since you are interested in Huoya Cave, I naturally offer this scroll with both hands!"
With that said, Cao Xiu was about to hand the scroll to Li Qing.
But Li Qing did not accept it. He waved his hand and said: "I will not swallow up this benefit alone. I said I will explore with you, so there will be no lies."
< br>After Cao Xiu hesitated for a moment, he finally put the scroll away. He asked curiously: "But there are many dangers in the Fire Cliff Cave. Even with this scroll, it may not be able to guarantee absolute safety." "Safety"
"I don’t know your current cultivation level, senior"
In response, Li Qing just smiled and said nothing, and did not clearly tell Cao Xiu what his current cultivation level was.
But in the latter's view, this attitude actually explains a lot of things.
Cao Xiu's eyes shook slightly, and he murmured to himself: "Senior Li, could it be that you are already a monk in the elixir formation stage?"
As he said that, he also tried to sense Li Qing’s cultivation.
But in his perception, Li Qing with a relaxed smile in front of him was like an unfathomable abyss, and he could not sense any breath at all!
Obviously, the Li Qing standing in front of him was indeed a genuine monk in the core formation stage!
"Oh, I have had some good luck in practicing these years, and luckily I succeeded in forming an elixir." Li Qing replied casually.
Cao Xiu took a deep breath when he heard Li Qing personally confirming the matter.
“Hiss!”
This is the first monk in the alchemy stage that he has seen in his life! And it’s someone he knows!
Originally, he was somewhat complacent about the cultivation realm he had successfully established early, but now it seems that it is too far behind.
"Okay, after you recover these days, let's set off to the Fire Cliff Cave together."
As he said that, Li Qing generously took out a few pieces of spiritual energy. The pure middle-grade spiritual stone was handed to Cao Xiu, allowing him to quickly restore his mana.
Faced with this gift, Cao Xiu just resisted for a moment and accepted it.
He understood that he needed to recover his mana as soon as possible so that he could go to the Fire Cliff Cave as soon as possible.
In this way, several days passed in a row.
After absorbing all the pure spiritual energy from several medium-grade spiritual stones, Cao Xiu's mana was restored to a full extent.
"Let's go, take my spirit boat, you can show the way."
As he said that, in a hidden mountain forest somewhere, a snake-headed spirit boat turned into a crystalline light. The stream of light rushed into the sky at extremely fast speeds.
According to Cao Xiu, Huoya Cave is located in the northwest of Qingling Domain, very close to the Jedi Black Abyss.
Under Li Qing's full speed, the snake-headed spirit boat moved at an unimaginable speed, and soon he saw a dark ravine appearing in his field of vision at the end of the land ahead.
This is the Black Abyss, known as one of the three Jedi in the Qingling Domain!
Li Qing knew these situations in his early years. The bitter cold Forbidden Snow Mountain in the south, the dangerous Wuya Sea in the east, and the black abyss in the extreme west, which almost runs through the border of the Qingling Territory.
As soon as he approached this place, Li Qing felt that the magic power in his body was faintly dissipating.
But he was already in the elixir-forming stage, and his magic power had long been solidified. A golden elixir was extremely solid. With just a few thoughts, he stabilized the true energy in his body.
However, Cao Xiu on the side was not so powerful. He was only in the foundation-building stage. After approaching the black abyss, the magic power in his body began to escape unstoppably.
"This Black Abyss is really well-deserved. I heard that it was the Jedi that was created when the demon world invaded and the great human race fought with the ancestors of the demon world."
Li Qing couldn't help but feel in his heart. He sighed.
The black abyss in front of us is not only extremely vast, with no end visible at a glance, but its length runs through the entire Green Ridge Region, directly sealing off the border here.
For ordinary monks in the foundation building stage to cross over, it is almost impossible.
Only when one's cultivation has reached the elixir-forming stage and the mana in the body has been solidified, can one try to cross this dead end.
"Almost all the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth has been swallowed up by this black abyss. It is incredible."
Looking at the desolate and lifeless land around him, Li Qing sighed again. .
The location of Huoya Cave is in a group of volcanoes near the Black Abyss.
There are volcanoes standing here. Because there are still several active volcanoes erupting, the scorched black color of the earth seems to match the black abyss.
Just as he approached this place, Li Qing felt the temperature in the air was unusually hot.
"Senior Li, the Fire Cliff Cave is right here, in a huge underground cave connected at the foot of several volcanoes!"
Cao Xiu, who was riding on the snake-headed spirit boat , pointing to a direction among the volcanoes.
Li Qing nodded and approached.
At this moment, a strong roar came from one of the volcanoes, and the whole mountain was shaking.
The next moment, a shocking loud noise resounded!
Along with a huge amount of dark smoke, the magma inside this volcano burst out!
Boom!
The volcano erupted!
