Deep in the Zimu Peak of Yunmeng Mountain Range, the secret room is filled with haze and surrounded by restrictions.
In the middle position, Yan Yun is sitting cross-legged in silence, with green light flashing all over his body.
He was surrounded by five skeletons as white as jade, meditating around him.
These skeletons contain thin gray-white demonic energy, and various colored flames flicker in their mouths.
In front of Yan Yun, a dazzling purple flame loomed.
Yan Yun had been in seclusion in the secret room for many years. Suddenly, silver light appeared on the wall, and another cyan figure appeared strangely from the confinement.
A few minutes passed, and he stood there motionless, waiting.
Soon, Yan Yun opened his mouth and sucked the purple flame into his mouth.
At the same time, the five skeletons around him spit out flames and disappeared instantly. The gray-white demonic energy on their bodies dissipated completely, and the white bones turned into a color similar to the flames.
Then, Yan Yun slowly opened his eyes, with confusion on his face, which turned clear later. He turned to look at the cyan figure next to him, frowning slightly.
This cyan figure is a puppet placed outside the cave by Yan Yun, and has been responsible for taking care of the affairs of the cave for many years. When he appears here at this moment, there must be important matters that require his personal decision.
Yan Yun was confused. With the strength of the Second Nascent Soul, what else could make him difficult to make a decision?
So with a thought, he invaded the puppet's body and merged with the consciousness of the second Nascent Soul.
A quarter of an hour later, Yan Yun looked strange. When there was no response from the puppet, he reached out and took out something from his waist, and handed it out quietly. Yan Yun took it without hesitation, it was a broken jade talisman half the size of a palm.
He gently input a little spiritual power, and dense red fonts immediately appeared on the surface of the jade talisman. After reading for a while, Yan Yun fell into silence.
"Fellow Taoist Tianlan, are you awake? Nearly two hundred years have passed since this retreat."
Yan Yun asked in a low voice.
"It's only a hundred years, how can it be called a long time! Are you going to leave the country now?"
"The Cold Flame Tongxin Demon is at an important stage of refining, and there are only ten or twenty years left before the five types of strange cold flames are completely refined. It would be a pity to leave now."
A small cauldron flew out of Yan Yun's sleeve robe, and a boy's figure appeared in the cauldron, and he said leisurely.
"The regret will eventually be made up for, but this Thousand Miles Communication Talisman records the information from the Chaos Star Sea."
"Back then, I made a deal with the Twin Saints of Heaven and Star. Ling Yuling is in trouble now, so I'm sorry that I can't stand by and watch." Yan Yun answered without any doubt.
"Two Saints of Heavenly Stars? Could it be that they are referring to the late-stage couple in the Chaotic Star Sea?"
"Years ago, I used secret techniques to observe their weather in the treasure tripod: Although the two Taoist friends are extraordinary in strength, their loss of energy and blood is a typical sign of a short life span."
"Even if you spend every day peacefully, you should have already entered the road of death. If this couple is so solemn, how can there be any problem that makes you stop?"
The boy rolled his eyes and thought for a moment before replying.
"According to the information conveyed by Ling Yuling, there was indeed no mention of anything about the two saints. It is speculated that the couple may have really returned to the west."
"However, this is a rare opportunity. I am very interested in the Star Palace Yuan Magnetic Divine Light. In the past, the two saints gave me some cultivation methods that will help advance to the stage of divine transformation, and I have studied them in depth."< br>
"Other methods are not advisable. Only by cultivating the Yuanci Divine Light to perfection can it truly benefit the practice of the Divine Transformation Stage."
"Therefore, this trip is precisely to obtain this cultivation method."
Yan Yun explained calmly.
"This technique of Yuanci Divine Light is unheard of in the spiritual world. It must have been created by monks in this world."
"However, if Taoist friends want to practice this technique, will it distract themselves too much? You need to be careful not to affect your Taoist practice."
The boy reminded kindly.
"I have made my own decision in my heart. Before practicing Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, I must first increase my magic power to the later stage and try to break through the bottleneck of divine transformation with the extremely cold flame. It would be best if I can succeed."
"If I fail, I can only cultivate Yuanci Divine Light. Other than that, there is no other way to help me advance to the stage of divine transformation."
Yan Yun said solemnly.
"Since my fellow Taoist has made a decision, it is inconvenient for me to say more. It is a pity that although I have many methods to break through the divine transformation stage, the spiritual energy here is too thin, and it has no effect when used here."
"By the way, what have been the results of your cultivation over the past hundred years, fellow Taoist? It seems that your magic power has increased significantly." The boy glanced at Yan Yun and asked calmly.
"Although the magic power has been improved, there is still a long way to go before it can be achieved in the later stage. It will take at least fifty or sixty years of hard training."
"This still depends on constantly taking all kinds of miraculous medicines and meditating on one's own. I am afraid that even if it takes another hundred years, it will be difficult to reach the current state."
Yan Yun sighed.
At this time, he couldn't help but recall the Crimson Cloud Pill that he had refined in that mysterious medicine garden space.
If you can have a sufficient amount of this kind of elixir, it can shorten the training time several times.
Unfortunately, a certain type of spiritual grass needed to refine Jiangyundan has been exhausted, and it cannot be transplanted from space for cultivation.
The other elixirs he is currently taking have limited auxiliary effects for his current state and cannot satisfy him.
Yet over the years, he hasn't wasted the green liquid in the mysterious vial.
On the premise of meeting the needs for elixir refining, the remaining spiritual liquid is used to cleanse spiritual eyes and ripen spiritual insects.
However, the spiritual eye cleansing work was stopped after more than 20 years.
The reason is that after cleaning the eyes countless times, the Mingqing Lingshui no longer has any effect, and continuing to use it will only be a waste of green liquid.
However, Yan Yun's spiritual eyes have undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the past.
After injecting powerful spiritual power, not only can it penetrate clouds and mists, but when exerting all its strength, it can clearly see things thousands of feet away without the need for spiritual thoughts, as if it is right in front of you.
In this way, if you are in a restriction that isolates your spiritual thoughts, this magical power will be extremely practical.
As for the six-winged frost centipede, after a hundred years of catalysis, it finally evolved into a second pair of wings, and its magical powers were upgraded from the original fifth-level monster level.
After jumping to the level of seventh-level mastery, he already has the ability to control the power of wind and snow at the same time.
Twelve centipedes advancing together are enough to turn more than ten miles of land into a frozen land in an instant.
The batch of gold-eating insects carefully cultivated by Yan Yun has not shown any signs of advancement.
Although he has the secret method of the Tianlan Saint using the five elements of spiritual energy to carry out the final ripening process.
However, he is not yet able to display such advanced skills at this moment, so these spiritual insects still need many years of patient cultivation before they can reach their ideal state. As for the earth-armored dragon he obtained from Dajin, which is good at searching for rare treasures in the world, after receiving sufficient nourishment from the demon elixir.
It has been able to practice meditation in the cave, but judging from its current cultivation level, it still has a long way to go before it can break through to the eighth level of transformation.
In terms of practicing martial arts, Yan Yun practiced the Qingyuan Sword Jue on one side and the Dayan Jue on the other.
The reason may not be that his spiritual root qualifications have changed, but more likely that he does have extremely high talent in the practice of spiritual power.
He was able to cultivate Dayan Jue to the highest level in one go. Compared with the previous stages, it was obviously progressing more smoothly.
As a result, his soul power has at least doubled compared to before. If he can perfect the last level of cultivation, then the strength of his spiritual thoughts may be second only to the monks in the God Transformation Realm.
In addition to his mental strength, Yan Yun's current physical strength is also breathtaking.
In order to better master the practice of the Nine Transformations of Gale, he decided to practice the third level of Mingwang Jue.
Although the practice of this part is extremely difficult and requires tremendous pain, Yan Yun always persisted and even almost gave up because he couldn't bear it.
No wonder that even in the spiritual world, few people can practice this technique to the third level or above.
However, when he successfully cultivated to the third level of Mingwang Jue, he found that his body had become stronger after thorough training, which completely exceeded his expectations.
Now he does not need to use the body-protecting spiritual light, and his physical body alone is enough to withstand the attacks of ordinary magic weapons, thus ensuring his own safety.
As for the training process of the Nine Transformations of Gale Wind, it was easy for Yan Yun.
It only took him just over a year to fully understand this set of techniques and be able to use them as he wished.
During his retreat, Yan Yun also refined several precious treasures with his own hands.
The first thing to be refined is the Mu Sheng Pearl that can exert the magical power of the immortal body. The key auxiliary materials required for this orb actually include the "soul-nurturing tree" and the "efficacious tree" among the three major spiritual trees.
For others, these rare treasures that are almost impossible to find in the human world are like picking up something from a bag for Yan Yun.
Therefore, he effortlessly refined the Mu Sheng Pearl and incorporated it into his body.
In addition, during his retreat, he skillfully refined a pair of poisonous hooks from the Two-tailed Human-Faced Scorpion and the fire dragon pillars obtained from Kunwu Mountain into two sets of extraordinary powerful magic weapons.
Yan Yun carefully reviewed the results of this retreat deep in his heart. Suddenly, he waved his sleeve, and a black jade bottle flew out, while he silently recited a spell.
Immediately afterwards, the bodies of the five nearby skeletons trembled slightly, and gray-white demonic energy suddenly emerged, turning into five ghost heads the size of wheels, spitting hot demonic fire from their mouths, looking particularly ferocious and terrifying.
"Ji" Yan Yun waved his hand and sent out a spell.
I saw those ghost heads spinning around, gradually shrinking at an astonishing speed, and finally became the size of a fist, and were sucked into it by the glow of the black jade bottle.
Yan Yun took back the jade bottle, swayed slightly, and stood up steadily.
He flicked his long sleeves and flicked the white light pointed at the stone chamber. After a sudden flash of spiritual light, the restrictions of the stone chamber quickly disintegrated and dissipated, revealing the stone door at the entrance.
Yan Yun walked towards the stone door with a stern expression, while the humanoid puppet flashed silver light in the secret room and then disappeared without a trace.
The world of immortality cultivation in the Yue Kingdom, located in the central part of Tiannan, has been plagued by constant disputes in recent hundreds of years, with few long-lasting years of peace.
At that time, the six sects of the Yue Kingdom suffered heavy losses from the demonic forces. Subsequently, various demonic sects launched a fierce competition for control of the Yue Kingdom, and the Ghost Spirit Sect finally stood out.
However, a hundred years ago, the Yuling Sect took advantage of the fact that the Ghost Spirit Sect was greatly reduced in strength due to the Battle of Falling into the Demon Valley, and suddenly united with several other major sects to launch a surprise attack and once again expelled the Ghost Spirit Sect from the Yue Kingdom.
At present, the Yue Kingdom, as the overlord of Tiannan, has been eaten by many sects, and the Yuling Sect, known for its strong strength, is the leader.
In one fell swoop, they captured about four-fifths of the spiritual veins and mine resources in the Yue Kingdom.
This place is called a spirit stone mine underground in the Grand Canyon, and it is one of the mineral veins controlled by the Yuling Sect.
Originally, the reserve of spirit stones here was quite abundant. However, after hundreds of years of frenzied mining by the six sects of the Yue Kingdom, the Ghost Spirit Sect, the Yuling Sect, and many other sects, the spirit stone resources were gradually depleted, and now they have fallen into half a state. Abandoned situation.
At present, Yuling Sect only has two low-level disciples in the Qi Refining Stage stationed here, and no other monks stay here.
On this day, the two Yuling Sect disciples were standing at the entrance of the mine chatting, talking about various trivial matters within the sect.
On the ground just above their heads, a green figure used the earth escape technique to sneak underground quietly, and finally appeared in an inconspicuous cave deep in the mine.
From beginning to end, these two Yuling Sect disciples were completely unaware of this.
As the yellow light flickered, the figure appeared. It turned out to be a young man with an ordinary appearance.
He glanced at the corner of the empty cave and couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
This young man is Yan Yun who has been rushing here from Xi Country.
A month ago, Yan Yun finished her retreat, but was unable to see the person she cared about, Nangong Wan.
Nangong Wan is different from Yan Yun. During the more than a hundred years of seclusion, she went out of seclusion many times and traveled to various parts of the south to sharpen her character.
However, when Yan Yun came out of seclusion, Nangong Wan entered the secret room again a few years ago and began a new round of seclusion practice.
Although Yan Yun felt sorry, he did not want to disturb Nangong Wan, so he sent a transmission note to Nangong Wan to inform him that he was about to go on a long journey.
Afterwards, he went to Luoyun Sect to meet Lu Luo and Liu Yu.
When the two people saw Yan Yun, they were naturally ecstatic.
Over the years, under the careful management of the two, the strength of the Luoyun Sect has grown by leaps and bounds, and it has become one of the few large sects in the Tiannan region.
And the woman surnamed Song from Bai Feng Peak has successfully condensed the Nascent Soul over the past hundred years and became the fourth master of the Nascent Soul level in Luoyun Sect.
Yan Yun was naturally delighted when he heard the news.
What is even more surprising is that after decades of searching, the woman surnamed Song finally found a disciple with extraordinary spiritual consciousness.
Since Yan Yun was still in retreat, this disciple temporarily stayed in the sect to practice.
It is said that his spiritual root qualifications are extremely good and are rare dual-attribute spiritual roots.
When Yan Yun heard about this, he was very interested and immediately summoned the disciple.
It turned out that the young man named "Shi Jian", although slightly thin in stature, had a delicate face and was only about sixteen or seventeen years old.
Yan Yun personally conducted a test on the young man.
As expected, the young man's spiritual talent was extraordinary, even more than twice that of monks of the same age, and his personality was calm and down-to-earth, which made Yan Yun extremely satisfied. (End of chapter)
