"Perhaps, most of the extra spiritual power out of thin air is provided by the Immortal Mansion."
"The little spiritual stone I invested is just a primer."
After thinking for a while, Liu Yu made a guess based on his understanding of the Immortal Mansion.
The well water in the mottled ancient well also contains a lot of spiritual energy, and as his cultivation level increases, the concentration of spiritual energy also increases.
Most importantly, there is a constant supply of well water!
Therefore, if you want to avoid consuming spiritual stones, there is nothing you can do.
You only need to enter the fairy mansion frequently and water the spiritual herbs and elixirs.
It just takes a lot of time to get in and out, and the whole process is quite cumbersome.
"But if the guess is correct, the spiritual power I provided through the spiritual stone is really insignificant compared to the contribution of the Immortal Mansion."
"The Immortal Mansion can provide all the spiritual power, allowing you to directly obtain the ripened spiritual grass without spending any money."
"Why bother?"
After a second thought, Liu Yu had new doubts.
In his eyes as dark as ink,
Shining with the luster of reason.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of the "theory of balance of all things" recorded in an ancient book.
According to the "theory of balance of all things", everything in the world, no matter how "absurd" it seems, must follow a certain balance.
When you think of achieving a certain goal, you must pay a certain price in the process.
Just like a cultivator who "turns stone into gold", he shows "immortal traces" that are incomparable to the eyes of mortals.
But in fact, it consumes a certain amount of mana in the body and transforms it into pure metallic spiritual power.
Only by injecting the stone into the stone using a special method of magic and changing some of its properties can the effect of turning stone into gold be achieved.
However, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, it is an extremely simple drama, but in the eyes of most mortals, it is indeed a real "immortal miracle".
In Liu Yu's view, the immortal ripening elixir was simply "unbelievable" and difficult to understand at all.
But let’s make a bold guess, could this be an upgraded version of “Midas turns gold”?
Restricted by the balance of the avenue, you must make some sacrifices in order to harvest the ripened spiritual herbs and elixirs.
Using the water from the spiritual spring in the mottled ancient well to ripen the spiritual herbs and elixirs seems to cost nothing.
But when Liu Yu thought about it carefully, did she really not pay anything in this process?
The ancient well spiritual spring contains very little spiritual energy.
To ripen the spiritual grass of level 2 or above, you must often enter the fairy mansion and use the spiritual spring to water the red spiritual soil to achieve the final ripening.
In this process, I sacrificed my time.
Isn't "time" a resource and a price?
So whether you use spiritual stones or spiritual springs to accelerate ripening, you have to pay a price in the process.
Although the price is small, according to the "balance theory of all things", it is still worth paying.
The reason why the cost is so small is probably because most of the cost is borne by the Immortal Mansion, but after all, it cannot be completely exempted.
"Balance of all things"
Sitting on the chair, holding the table with one hand, Liu Yu concentrated on thinking.
But when he thought about it again, a new doubt arose in his heart.
According to the concentration of spiritual energy in the ancient well spring at this time, the first-level elixir for ripening is completely sufficient. It only needs to be watered once. Wouldn't the "balance" be broken?
"Hey~"
Liu Yu sighed softly and thought for a long time, but could not find an accurate answer.
"The theory of balance of all things" is just a minority view in the world of immortality. In fact, it has many loopholes in itself, and not many monks recognize it.
Whether it was close to the truth or not, he had no way of knowing, so he could only suppress his doubts in his heart.
Shaking her head, Liu Yu came to the futon and sat cross-legged.
Take out the magic weapons such as the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, the Golden Jade Ring, the Black Wind Wings, and the Flying Star Dart, and prepare for daily warming.
But just before warming up, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"Since you can "buy" the first-order spiritual grass for free, does it mean that the "balance of all things" is not unbreakable?"
"The Immortal Mansion has the ability to break the balance, and is it gradually breaking the balance?"
"As my realm improves, in the future, second-level spiritual grass and third-level spiritual grass may also be able to "have sex for free"?"
An idea arises, but many doubts arise.
"No, no, no."
Liu Yu shook his head heavily, denied his previous guess, and murmured:
"Even if you just water it once, you have invested your time, and it is not a true "free prostitution."
"It's just that the Immortal Mansion has avoided most of the costs."
"Although the contribution is small, it is not no contribution after all. To a certain extent, it is still within the scope of "balance"."
Thinking of this, Liu Yu smiled dumbly.
However, I subconsciously agree with the speculation based on the "theory of balance of all things", and I feel a sense of reasonableness inexplicably.
Shaking his head, he put away his wild guesses, held the pale golden jade ring in his hand, injected mana into it and began to warm it.
With the injection of mana, the golden jade ring suddenly lit up with a soft aura.
After getting this magic weapon, Liu Yu has been doing daily maintenance for about seventy years.
At this time, the alien magical energy in it was basically washed away, and he could already exert the full power of this magic weapon.
The magic power circulates smoothly inside the golden jade ring without any hindrance.
At this time, there were only about ten days left before the team left Lingxiao Cave.
Five years have passed, and Liu Yu has broken through the middle stage of Jindan in both body and qi refining, and his strength has made great progress.
…
"Rumble"
After the formation was closed, Liu Yu pushed the door open and saw four teammates sitting in the hall at a glance.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang"
Canglou Lao Dao, Mu Yunyan cupped his hands and said hello.
Gao Jianhan also cupped his hands and nodded slightly, but did not speak.
Seeing Liu Yu again, Zhuo Mengzhen looked a little unnatural, but he also raised his hand to signal.
Compared to a few years ago, this woman has changed a lot.
The first is cultivation. After digesting the effects of that double cultivation, it has reached the peak of the early stage of the golden elixir.
And the breath is stable and there is no feeling of emptiness.
It seems that as long as it takes a few years to settle down, it can launch an impact on the middle stage of Jindan.
However, in the Hengduan Mountains, even if you get the magical herbs and elixirs, most of them will have no effect if you take them directly, or the effects will be greatly reduced.
These few years will probably be extended much longer unless
In addition to her cultivation, this woman's temperament has also changed a lot.
Just like the fairies in the sky who fell into the mortal world, not much of the otherworldly temperament is left.
On the contrary, she has the charm of a newbie, and her appearance has become more mature.
However, from the perspective of a Jindan cultivator, this change is naturally undetectable, and it can be seen at a glance that Zhuo Mengzhen has lost his virginity.
As for who that person is?
This is not difficult to guess.
Among the three male cultivators, one is an experienced Taoist and the other is a sword cultivator who is not affected by external objects.
Excluding the two, it's obvious who it is.
For a moment, several people had strange expressions and all looked at Liu Yu with intriguing eyes.
"Aren't Hehuan Sect and Yuanyang Sect always hostile?"
"And according to the news, Zhuo Mengzhen and Qingyang had some quarrels in their early years?"
"How did this come together?"
Several people were confused.
"Fellow Taoists, I haven't seen you for a few years. How are you?"
"Please wait a moment, Liu will put away the formation first."
Liu Yu's face remained normal, she didn't feel guilty at all, and she greeted him openly.
It is human nature for a man to love a woman, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.
Moreover, the sequelae of the exercise were occurring at that time, and the other party also had virgin Yuan Yin. Double cultivation would be of great benefit to me, so why not do it?
If I remember correctly, hundreds of thousands of years ago there was a god named Yang. His lifelong ambition was to sleep with all the female nuns in the world, and his motto was "Family for the world."
Feng Qingyun said hello, Liu Yu took out the token to activate the formation, took out the arranged formations and flags one by one, and put away the "Three Elements of Disillusionment Formation".
Then, he walked to the center of the hall, where five people sat around the black stone table.
"Everyone, the five-year period has passed, and it's time for us to set off."
The old Taoist Canglou looked solemn and said slowly.
His eyes swept over Zhuo Mengzhen and Liu Yu, and he frowned secretly, feeling a little troubled.
Even if the information from the Seven Nations Alliance and the Five Sects is added up, there are still many unclear aspects, and there are a lot of gaps and gaps in the information about the various blockades.
If you rush in rashly, your entire army may be wiped out.
In this case, sending one or two people to "explore the path" first is the best option, which can effectively reduce the risk to the rest of the team.
It turned out that Liu Yu and Zhuo Meng were really the lowest in cultivation, so Master Canglou made a plan in his mind and prepared for the two of them to "explore the path" at the critical moment.
Being able to pass three blockades in succession, Liu Yu's strength was unexpected.
He compared it secretly and was not sure of winning, so he had to give up his original plan.
At this moment, Zhuo Mengzhen made a big mistake, so Canglou Lao Taoist took advantage of the situation and deliberately expressed his dissatisfaction.
I plan to use this reason to force this woman to explore the road and reduce my own risks.
Although the Qingxu Sect and the Hehuan Sect are still allies.
But at this time, the sect could not be contacted, many restrictions were ineffective, and the relationship was no longer taken care of.
If you show a little bit of your thoughts, the other people will understand and cooperate intentionally or unintentionally.
His dissatisfaction with Zhuo Mengzhen was revealed and invisible pressure was exerted bit by bit.
"It's a bit difficult."
Looking at the two of them, Canglou Lao Dao sighed secretly.
Not only is Old Demon Qingyang's strength astonishing, Yuanyang Sect and Waning Moon Valley are also traditional allies.
When the critical moment comes, Gao Jianhan may side with the opponent.
If two powerful combatants stand on one side, plus the woman Zhuo Mengzhen, they will become the "majority" of the team, and any proposal must be approved by Liu Yu.
There are no factions in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things!
Even in the face of the threat of demonic cultivators, the cunning nature of human cultivators remains unchanged, and the secret confrontations have already begun!
"Five years have passed, and with the patience of the demon cultivator, we have almost withdrawn now."
"Even if we haven't given up the search yet, we must have relaxed a lot. It's a good time to set off."
Liu Yu nodded and said slowly.
He didn't know what Canglou Lao Dao was thinking, but in the past, he and Zhuo Mengzhen were both co-cultivators. In addition to coveting his "Yuan Yin spiritual power", they did also consider forming cliques.
If this woman wants her support and will not become an abandoned pawn, she must stand firmly on her side.
In this way, if you have two votes at once, won't you have greater say?
