Once we reach the holy land, we will be completely safe.
Due to the power of the imperial army, no demon beast dared to set foot here, not even the three-headed demon king in the divine transformation period.
"The spirit energy is so strong, it feels like being in a sea of spirit. This spirit vein is definitely bigger than the two from the Yan Sect and Huoyun Sect. Little Emperor, hurry up and get the mysterious object!"
The little fellow's eyes sparkled, his saliva flowed, and he began to encourage.
How could Wutan listen to it? He walked straight towards the stone tower, but he was also extremely surprised. According to the concentration of the essence, this spiritual vein under the holy land should be a medium-sized spiritual vein.
Spiritual veins are also divided into different levels.
The spiritual veins of Huoyun Sect and Yan Sect can produce about one million essences a year, and these are considered small spiritual veins.
The amount of essence that a medium-sized spirit vein can produce in a year reaches more than 10 million, which is a difference of ten times. It is precisely because of this that the strength of Shura Palace is several times stronger than that of the Fire and Yan Sects.
The amount of essence that a large spiritual vein can produce each year is several times that of a medium-sized spiritual vein.
Possessing a large spiritual vein can make one the dominant force in an entire continent. However, Wutan had only seen relevant records in the parchment scroll. As for whether Qinglong Continent had one, he still did not know.
"You two little bastards, you're finally here!"
Just as he was lost in thought, an old voice sounded from the stone tower.
Wutan raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see an old man with white hair and beard standing in front of a stone window on the eighth floor of the stone tower, blowing his beard and glaring.
This person is none other than Old Twelve.
When he saw the two people below, Lao Twelve was filled with anger.
It has been two years. I thought that with their strength, they could reach the holy land in two months at most, but I didn't expect that it would take more than two years.
If you enter a state of seclusion, more than two years is nothing and it will pass in the blink of an eye.
But he didn't dare to go into seclusion, for fear that the two shameless wild boys would come and no one would take care of them, so they would bring disaster to the holy land. However, what worried him most was that the two wild boys with the courage of bears and leopards would set their sights on the spiritual veins and the imperial soldiers, so he kept waiting.
This wait lasted for more than two years, which was an indescribable torture for such a great master, so the Twelveth Brother was very angry.
Especially when I saw those two people, leisurely and carefree, with rosy faces, who didn't look like they were having fun at all, I felt very angry.
The power of wind gushed out, Wu Tian flew up, landed in the stone tower, and bowed, saying: "Greetings, senior."
The Twelveth Elder said angrily, "You still know that I am your senior? If you knew, why didn't you come quickly? You have kept me waiting for so long, do you believe that I will kill you two?"
The little guy shouted: "Come and kill us, I don't want to live anyway. It's better to die than to be possessed by you, little emperor, don't you agree?"
"Yes!" Wutan nodded very cooperatively.
"You two little bastards, you are rebelling, right? If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know what it means to respect the elderly and love the young!"
The Twelveth Old Man slapped him, but his eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light. He retracted his swung hand and said calmly: "I am a true sage who has attained the Tao. I will not bother with you juniors. Come with me, and I will start to teach you the way of prohibition."
After saying that, Old Twelve pinched his white beard, walked to the cushion in the middle, and then sat cross-legged.
There is a space of about twenty meters inside the tower, which is not very big and there are no decorations. There are only three cushions placed on the ground. It is plain and simple, but very tidy.
Wutan walked to the cushion opposite Old Twelve and sat down. He glanced at the top of the tower and felt a frightening aura above. This aura was very familiar; it was the Sun and Moon Divine Disk.
"What are you looking at, little brat? I'm warning you. If you dare to take the Sun and Moon Divine Plate, I will definitely skin you alive. However, I don't think you have the ability to do that."
The little guy said, "Old man, stop talking so much, can you please get started right away?"
Hearing this, the Twelve Old Man raised his eyebrows and said, "Shut up, this is none of your business. If you don't just stay aside quietly, I will slap you and kick you out!"
Then, he straightened his face, looked at Wu Tian, and said, "I believe you know what a restriction is, so I won't explain any more and will get straight to the point."
Wutan nodded, looking serious and listening attentively.
Seeing this look, Old Twelve nodded in satisfaction and continued speaking.
"When practicing the art of forbidden cultivation, the most important thing is soul power, and soul power is not innate. It must be honed through acquired training. Here we have to mention talent. If you have talent in this area, you will be able to condense soul power quickly. If not, no matter how hard you try, there will be no results."
"The second is comprehension. After condensing soul power, it does not mean that you can immediately become a forbidden master. You still need to comprehend and study the forbidden talismans until you have a thorough understanding of all the mysteries in them. Only then can you start practicing carving forbidden talismans."
The little guy asked in confusion: "And then?"
The Twelve Elder ignored him and said to Wu Tian: "The first step is to condense your soul power. If you can't even condense your soul power, it's useless to talk about the rest."
Wu Tian nodded and asked, "How to condense?"
The Twelveth Elder smiled and said, "It's very simple. Just use the essence to refine your soul. In order not to waste time, I will set up a soul-condensing restriction to help you. If you have a talent for this, you will be able to condense soul power in one or two years."
Seeing his expression, for some reason, a feeling of uneasiness gradually came to his mind. Wutan frowned slightly and nodded in response.
Seeing this, an inexplicable light flashed in the old eyes of Old Twelve, as if his evil plan had succeeded. Then he waved his hand, and the next moment, the three of them appeared on the grassland outside the stone tower.
"Soul Condensation Restraint, Success!"
After standing still, Old Twelve pointed his hand forward, and a grey forbidden talisman flew out from his sleeves and hovered in the air. Then, a light flashed, and grey streaks fell down, forming a light shield that covered an area of ten feet in height.
"Okay, you can go in, but remember to condense your soul power and not be distracted. No matter what happens, you must remain calm." Old Twelve said with a smile.
Wutan looked at him meaningfully, and walked towards the gray light shield, his eyes flashing with brilliance, because this sentence sounded very familiar. Back then, at the Beast King Mountain, before arranging the possession of another body, Yan Zhen had said the same thing.
However, he was not too worried. Even if Old Twelve had a trick, it was just a prank. He would not really want his life like Yan Zhen did.
"Frog, go in and take a look too!"
The little guy turned into a golden light and followed closely.
When the two men entered the gray light shield, Old Twelve laughed, a shameless laugh, completely different from his previous sage-like appearance, like two completely different people.
"You little brat, you've been so arrogant. Today I'm going to let you know the consequences of disrespecting the elderly!"
As he spoke, Old Twelve waved his shriveled hand, and another forbidden talisman flew out, floating next to the Soul-Condensing Forbidden Talisman, and then it actually sprayed out black lightning, penetrating the gray light shield and falling into the restriction!
