As soon as he approached the forest, Xu Chenglin discovered something unusual. The forest was clearly right in front of him, and he could clearly detect it with his consciousness, but his consciousness could not extend into the forest.

"What's going on? Can this forest still block spiritual consciousness?"

Xu Chenglin has never encountered such a situation that can shield the detection of divine consciousness, but it does not mean that he has not heard of similar situations. Some special formations can shield divine consciousness, such as the small mythical formation in his hand.

It has the most basic function of shielding spiritual consciousness;

Nature is the most miraculous existence. The unique natural environment formed under certain special conditions also has the effect of shielding spiritual consciousness; some special treasures of heaven, materials and earth also have a similar effect; powerful suppression of spiritual consciousness can also be achieved at the slightest moment.

It has the effect of shielding spiritual consciousness without being aware of it... Divine consciousness is a magical means for practitioners, but there are also many ways to restrain this magical means.

"Shielding spiritual consciousness is usually to prevent outsiders from prying into it, but even monks in the Qi Condensation stage cannot do this in this large area. In this secret realm, it is impossible to have monks above the Body Forging stage. In this case, only the later

There are several possibilities. The secret realm is for training disciples. Even if there is danger, it should not lead to death. If you are careful, there should be a solution even if you encounter danger."

After a slight hesitation, Xu Chenglin still chose to head towards the forest.

The forest and the blood-colored plain were clearly separated, forming a clear dividing line, as if it had been artificially trimmed. Less than ten feet away from this clear dividing line, a silver ray of light suddenly appeared in front of Xu Chenglin. Without a chance to react, Xu Chenglin directly

Hit the silver light.

There was a thump in his heart, and Xu Chenglin secretly screamed something bad, and then his eyes turned into a shining silver. He felt his body light up, and then he felt like the world was spinning. He was very familiar with this feeling, every time he took the teleportation

Everyone will feel this way.

In just an instant, the silver light in front of his eyes quickly faded, and the down-to-earth feeling returned. The feeling changed too quickly. Although Xu Chenglin had experienced it, he still couldn't adapt. He staggered two steps and put his hands on his knees.

Only then did he stabilize his body shape.

As soon as the vision in his eyes recovered, he was greeted by an unfamiliar territory. Under his feet was a piece of earth-yellow land. In the distance, three mountain peaks were adjacent to each other in the shape of a cross. The gurgling water crisscrossed and merged into a golden line.

The winding river embraces three towering mountain peaks.

Looking from a distance, there is a layer of light clouds on the tops of these three mountain peaks. The light shining through the light clouds reflects the three peaks into green, purple and yellow. Among the three peaks, three

The rays of light intersect with each other to form a colorful light curtain, seemingly guarding something.

More than ten miles behind Xu Chenglin seemed to be the end of the land, where the earth cracked inexplicably to form a continuous cliff. Under the cliff was a surging black mist, which formed a thin film surrounding the place.

lock up.

Xu Chenglin didn't know that these black mist were the legendary space boundaries. This trial place was in a different space from their world, and this so-called space boundary would appear in the overlapping parts of the two spaces.

In fact, there are still many such independent spaces in the outside world, but these independent spaces are not in the hands of certain sects. With his current strength and status, he cannot access these for the time being.

This space is not actually small, but the place where Xu Chenglin appeared is close to the edge, so he can see the existence of black mist. He did not rush to explore the mist. This black mist gave him an inexplicable sense of danger.

, out of

For the sake of his own safety, he did not rush to investigate.

The scene in front of him shocked Xu Chenglin's spirit. After a brief shock, inexplicable excitement surged in his heart.

"Hidden place? In legends, most of the secret realms have such hidden places. And most of these hidden places hide great opportunities. Looking at this scene, there is no doubt that this is the hidden place. Blessings

This is where misfortunes lie, and misfortunes are where blessings rely on! The ancients sincerely did not deceive me!"

Faced with the temptation of major opportunities in front of them, few people can calmly think about the gains and losses after the benefits. But often because of this lack of calmness, the losses will be even greater. Summarizing historical experience and lessons, we can easily find that successes often fail.

The reason is the negligence at the moment of success.

Xu Chenglin certainly understood this truth after going to Wen Dao Hall and reading a lot of literature and materials. But after he understood it, it was not easy to actually do it. After taking a few deep breaths with great effort, he finally forced himself to step forward immediately.

The idea of ​​​​exploring. After calming down, his mind began to work rapidly, and the causes and consequences of the matter were quickly sorted out in his mind.

"I was brought here by a silver light, which means that the silver light has the effect of breaking through space teleportation. I wonder if this silver light is the same as the silver light that Fairy Qingling mentioned before. The forest I saw before is actually

It does not exist, or it should be an illusion created using special methods. Shielding spiritual consciousness, creating illusions, and being able to teleport are obviously characteristics of high-level formations. Could it be that the secret realm entered through the portal is actually just

A shell used to hide the formation, this is the real secret realm!"

The more he thought about it, the closer Xu Chenglin felt that he was getting closer to the truth.

"This is the real secret realm. It seems that the Phantom Sect thinks simply. This place is not just a secret realm. There are no obvious traces of formations around here. It seems that the silver light is randomly transmitted.

.If this is the case, we wouldn’t be able to get here without some chance, so it’s no wonder that the Phantom Religion didn’t discover this place.”

Like peeling off a cocoon, Xu Chenglin analyzed bit by bit and gradually gave reasonable explanations for all the things he couldn't understand.

"Why are you thinking so much? No matter how much you think, it's just your own speculation. Why not go and explore on your own. No matter what situation you encounter, it is essential to be calm and careful. You will never make a big mistake if you are careful. Only in this way can you

Obtain maximum benefits while ensuring your own safety.”

Constantly reminding himself to be careful, Xu Chenglin walked towards the three peaks.

As the saying goes, "Looking up the mountain and running to death", looking at the not-so-distant distance, but with Xu Chenglin's speed, it took more than three hours to reach the foot of the mountain. The gurgling water flowed out from the foot of the mountain with golden light, converging into a line of more than ten meters.

The foot-wide river surrounded the three peaks and looked like a bright golden ring. Seeing this golden river, Xu Chenglin did not cross the river rashly.

The only way to go is to never cross the forest or the water. It is best not to cross the river rashly when the environment is unknown. The river is formed by the water flowing on the mountain peaks. According to experience, this kind of river should not be too deep, but everything

There are always surprises.

Xu Chenglin picked up a stone and threw it towards the other side of the river. As soon as the stone reached the top of the river, it fell directly into the water with a thud. Xu Chenglin clearly felt that an invisible force was moving the stone downwards.

go.

"It seems that in order to cross the river, the lightening technique is not yet possible, and we need to use some rocks to borrow strength. If that doesn't work, we need to see if there is anything worth noting under the water."

Thinking of this, Xu Chenglin picked up a few stones again. He threw them into the river, and the sound of falling into the water continued.

There was a loud sound, and a huge ripple appeared on the water surface. Seeing that the water surface was not turbid and the splashing waves were not high, Xu Chenglin knew that the river was still very deep.

Under normal circumstances, there are usually aquatic creatures living in rivers. The golden river surrounding the mountain has a strange color, and it is impossible to tell what kind of creatures exist in it. If there is something that threatens him lurking in the water, he can take advantage of it while he is crossing the river.

A sudden attack would have unimaginable consequences.

The ripples had not disappeared, and the golden river surface seemed to be stimulated. Countless small ripples appeared inexplicably. Xu Chenglin was attracted by these small ripples and stared at them intently.

Under the ripples, suddenly small water lines burst out of the water. The water lines flew about three meters high out of the water, shooting all floating objects on the water to pieces. He shrank his eyes and concentrated his attention.

See clearly what is under the water.

To his disappointment, the water line disappeared just as quickly as it appeared, and there was no time to see clearly what was shooting out of the water line.

Silently, he picked up a stone again and threw it into the water. After a few breaths, the same water line appeared again. This time Xu Chenglin seized the opportunity and finally saw clearly what was under the water.

They were two-inch long, finger-thick, golden monster fish. The heads of these monster fish were triangular in shape. Their mouths were filled with barb-shaped golden teeth. The fish body was transparent. If you didn’t look carefully in the golden river water, you wouldn’t be able to see it at all.

Can't see clearly their original appearance.

After releasing the water line once, these strange fish seemed a little sluggish and swam towards the water one after another. Xu Chenglin believed that he could jump across the river with more than ten feet of water by using three stones and borrowing force three times. This method of crossing the river was clever, but

This is based on the premise that there is no danger under the water. If you crossed the river rashly before, you might be shot into a sieve now.

Seeing the golden fish swimming underwater, Xu Chenglin breathed a sigh of relief.

"The golden thread fish seems to have really lucked out. Their presence means that there will be no other creatures in this section of the water. As long as I disturb the water surface a few more times and let these golden thread fish use up their strength, I can do it without any effort.

Across the water.”

Knowledge is power, this sentence is true. If Xu Chenglin had not been involved in extensive research, he would not have known these golden thread fish, nor would he have understood that these golden thread fish are an exclusive race that lives in groups.

Pick up a few stones and throw them into the water continuously. Every time you drop a stone, a group of golden thread fish will be attracted to the water line.

Xu Chenglin used stones to create a straight float in the river, and was surprised by countless goldfish along the way. He repeated this several times, and no more water lines emerged from the water. Seeing this, he knew that these goldfish

It will no longer spit out the water line if it is already in the fatigue stage.

Smiling slightly, he threw out the last three stones in his hand. The three stones flew in a row towards the other side of the river. As the stones flew out, Xu Chenglin's figure jumped out together with the stones. The first stone

The stone was about to fall to the water. He stepped on the stone accurately with his toes to use his strength.

The stone fell into the water with a thud. At this time, Cheng Lin's figure had already reached the second stone. In the same way, he used the second stone to jump into the air and flew to the third stone.

The second stone fell into the water.

By stepping on the third stone, Xu Chenglin made a final leap and landed firmly on the bank about ten feet away on the other side of the river. It was not until this moment that the sound of the third stone falling into the water was heard.

Looking back at the golden river behind him, he nodded slightly, as if he was very satisfied with his movement skills. Looking up at the three peaks, Xu Chenglin finally headed towards the nearest peak with purple light.
