Once upon a time, Tang Xiu's attainments in formations had almost reached their peak. Even in a certain star field in the fairy world, he can completely cover it with formations and explode with huge power. Even though his consciousness was less than one ten thousandth of what it was at its peak, it was still easy to decipher the formation in front of him.
"go in."
Tang Xiu floated up, and as his sword moved forward, ripples in the air cracked like a network, and in the blink of an eye, it was shattered. And the fine steel door was cut open as easily as tofu and fell to the ground.
Chen Zhizhong's eyes showed excitement, and his admiration for Tang Xiu was even greater. At first, he and his men tried every possible means and failed to enter the cave, but the master broke open the cave door easily, which was beyond his imagination.
"It's strange, there is no spiritual energy in it."
Tang Twenty-eight, who was following closely behind Tang Xiu, walked ten meters ahead along the cave, showing an expression of disbelief. You must know that spiritual energy exists in every corner of the earth, even if the concentration of spiritual energy in some places is so thin that it can be ignored. But here, the concentration of spiritual energy decreases the further you go in. Even after walking more than ten meters, you can't feel the existence of spiritual energy at all.
Tang Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "Tang Twenty-Eight, the five of you wait outside the cave. You must not come in without my order. Also, stay outside for me. If anyone comes, you must block it from me."
"yes."
The twenty-eighty-five people in Tang Dynasty stopped, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Tang Xiu led Chen Zhizhong deeper into the cave for more than ten meters, and faintly heard the roar coming from the depths. This sound did not sound like the roar of a wild beast, but rather like the roar of a human being. After walking a hundred meters, Tang Xiu and Chen Zhizhong's eyes lit up.
"Oh my god! How is this possible?"
When Chen Zhizhong saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly exclaimed. He couldn't believe his eyes, because he had never dreamed that there was a world in the belly of this mountain. The blue sky and white clouds, the mountains and peaks rise and fall one after another. Although there is no sun and moon, there are countless birds and animals inside. Towering ancient trees can be seen everywhere, and the blooming flowers are even more colorful, making this place look like a fairyland.
Tang Xiu said calmly: "No need to make a fuss, this is just a world constructed within the formation. However, compared with the formation at the entrance of the cave, the formation here is much more interesting."
Chen Zhizhong didn't understand paroxysms, so naturally he couldn't see the mystery here. He reached out and grabbed the dagger, paying attention to the surroundings with vigilant eyes. Any disturbance would arouse his vigilance.
"Master, this place is so big, what should we do? Wander around looking for treasures?"
Tang Xiu said with a bit of regret: "The area of this small world constructed by the formation is indeed quite large. Unfortunately, although there is thin oxygen here, the spiritual energy level is almost negligible. Even the ascetics of the golden elixir stage are here , it is difficult to absorb the pitifully rare spiritual energy of heaven and earth. So I think that although there are many flowers, plants and trees here, it is difficult to find precious medicinal materials."
Chen Zhizhong was puzzled: "Why? Plants can grow here, but why can't medicinal materials grow? Medicinal materials are also a type of plant!"
Tang Xiu shook his head and said: "Medicals do belong to plants, but plants that can be called medicinals need to absorb the essence of the earth and grow under the nourishment of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Only after years of accumulation can they have strong medicinal properties. Let's make a call For example, if a wild ginseng grows here, but it has no medicinal effect, do you think it can be regarded as a medicinal material?"
Chen Zhizhong immediately understood what Tang Xiu meant, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "No, the reason why ginseng is regarded as a treasure is precisely because of the medicinal power it contains. Without medicinal power, it is no different from the leaves of wild grass."
Tang Xiu said: "So, I'm afraid there are no medicinal materials in this small world. If there are good things, I'm afraid they can only have ores."
Chen Zhizhong said hurriedly: "Master, I think there must be precious ores here. After all, there is the Blood Soul Stone outside the cave entrance. I think there must be something better than the Blood Soul Stone inside. Let's look for it, and maybe we will find it. unexpected result."
Tang Xiu smiled and said: "Since I'm here, I naturally have to look for it."
The environment of this small world is simply picturesque, with mountains and rivers filled with birds and animals. However, in this vibrant fairyland, there are extremely dangerous places and terrifying beasts hidden. The roar he just heard had dissipated, but in a world without much spiritual energy, even Tang Xiu had to be cautious.
consumption.
This is the most fatal problem for cultivators in this environment. Unless you carry a large amount of elixirs, once the true energy in the body is excessively consumed, your strength will plummet, making it difficult to survive in a crisis. Fortunately, Tang Xiu's space ring contains a large amount of elixirs. Even if his needs are not high, if Chen Zhizhong needs to take them, he will be able to deal with them in an emergency.
"After leaving, I must go to Bangkok again to get some more magic stones from the Black Witch Family. The magic stones I have now can be absorbed and refined for a few years, but if I am trapped in this small world in the future, Here, I’m afraid I will be in danger.”
"Practitioners are like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Replenishing the power of chaos in your body is only one aspect. On the other hand, you need to break through. And the price of breakthrough requires absorbing the power of the stars, embracing all rivers, and all kinds of energy. Once aura is used as an auxiliary energy, it requires a lot of magic power to fill it up."
Half a day later.
Tang Xiu and Chen Zhizhong have penetrated into the depths of the small world, but they cannot detect how large the small world is. In addition, the most disappointing thing for the two of them was that although they did not encounter any danger, they did not get any treasures.
"Zhizhong, continuing the search like this is not an option. Considering the size of this small world, even if we search here for several months, I'm afraid we won't be able to search the entire area of the small world. The current plan is to focus on On the formation of this small world." Tang Xiu stopped and said with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Chen Zhizhong hesitated for a moment and said: "Master, I don't understand the formation, so you study slowly while I search around."
Tang Xiu took out two jade bottles from the space ring, reached out and stuffed them into Chen Zhizhong, nodded and said: "The more beautiful the environment, the more dangers are hidden. Don't be fooled by the scene here, be on guard at all times. , if you encounter danger, return immediately. There are a total of twenty pills in these two jade bottles, which will be helpful to you."
suddenly.
He seemed to have thought of something, and took out the refined Tang Zongling from the space ring, handed it to Chen Zhizhong and said: "Now Baiyan Restaurant is just a real restaurant, and it is no longer a force. The former core disciple of Baiyan Restaurant , have now all become members of the Tang Sect. The Tang Sect is the sect that I established, a cultivating sect. You should keep this Tang Sect order to prove that you are a disciple of the Tang Sect."
Chen Zhizhong looked surprised. He knew very well what the monastic sect meant. In ancient times, a sect was a whole, like a big family. Now that Master Tang Xiu has established the Tang Sect, he will become a Taoist with a well-established sect and foundation.
After Chen Zhizhong took Tang Zongling over, he was about to put it away seriously when he saw Tang Xiu shaking his head at him.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Tang Xiu said: "Put your blood on the Tang Zong Ling, and it will be integrated into your body, and a token pattern will appear on your finger. Strictly speaking, the Tang Zong Ling is already a magic weapon, but it only has There are two functions, one is to prove your identity, and the other is to protect the master. Once activated when you are facing a desperate situation, it can help you withstand a fatal blow. Remember, unless you have no time to activate it, Otherwise, you can only inspire at the most critical moment of life and death."
Chen Zhizhong's expression became serious, and after nodding heavily, he cut his finger with a dagger, and blood dripped on Tang Zongling. Suddenly, Chen Zhizhong discovered that his spiritual power had a strange connection with the token in his hand.
"Whoosh!"
Tang Zongling suddenly disappeared, and then a token pattern appeared on Chen Zhizhong's thumb, just like a tattoo, exactly what Tang Zongling looked like.
Tang Xiu said: "What you need to control Tang Zongling is your mind. Go! Don't get lost here, and don't go too far. As long as I understand the formation of this small world, I can easily do it. Use the formation to detect the treasure inside."
Chen Zhizhong nodded, tried to sacrifice Tang Zongling, and then took it back. After repeated trials several times, I walked towards the distance with a bit of excitement.
Tang Xiu glanced at it casually, then walked to a large flat bluestone not far away. After sitting down cross-legged, his spiritual consciousness was continuously released, and he soon touched the invisible formation.
"interesting."
After a short period of understanding, Tang Xiu found that this formation was very mysterious. Although he understood most of the formation's structure, a small part of it felt very novel to him, and he had never thought about it in the past. This discovery gave him a feeling of joy, because he truly realized that the more knowledge he had about the formation, the more profound and mysterious it became.
In the deep valley, the spring water emits white smoke. A group of strange animals, resembling sheep but not sheep, looking like dogs but not dogs, with sharp rhinoceros horns on their heads, were gathering around the spring to drink.
Several owl-like animals, as big as lions, squatted on the rocks and looked around. They didn't open their mouths, but the strange "coo-coo" sounds continued one after another.
"what is that?"
Chen Zhizhong, who had just arrived here, suddenly staggered. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and reached out to hold on to the boulder a few meters high, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground. And his expression was as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, full of shock.
