Not much time had passed before Cheng Jiu, who was above Lu Chen, discovered this unusual phenomenon. This was because the mist-like spiritual energy in the Wuling Pond originally radiated upward, but now, he was shocked to discover
, the mist-like spiritual energy changed the trajectory of its movement, from slowly spreading upward to rapidly spreading downward.
How is this going?
Cheng Jiu frowned, and he soon discovered that the speed at which he was absorbing spiritual energy actually began to slow down. Some of the mist-like spiritual energy that was originally very close to him began to move downwards.
Cheng Jiu's forehead was suddenly covered with black lines. However, for a moment, he did not think that it was because of Lu Chen. He also knew that Lu Chen was in the same late stage of marrow washing as him. Even if he had perfected his cultivation the day after tomorrow,
It’s also impossible to change the diffusion trajectory of mist-like spiritual energy, right?
Above Cheng Jiu, Fang Ting.
She originally had her eyes closed, but at this time, her long eyelashes began to tremble slightly, and she was obviously frowning. She discovered the abnormality later than Cheng Jiu, because she was at the top, far away from Lu Chen
further location.
Something is obviously wrong with the changes in the foggy spiritual energy in the Wuling Pond!
Under normal circumstances, the mist-like spiritual energy in the Wuling Pond must continuously rise upward from the bottom, break away from the ground, and then dissipate in the infinite space outside.
At this time, the Mist Spirit Pond has already broken through the ground, so the mist-like spiritual energy inside it should spread out and evaporate at a faster speed.
Because of this, Fang Ting was the first to occupy the top position to practice, so that she could contact and absorb the most mist-like spiritual energy. Moreover, she was already a cultivator in the innate realm and could absorb external spiritual energy.
The speed is not comparable to that of warriors in the acquired realm.
"what happened?"
Feeling the abnormality of the mist-like aura around her, Fang Ting's eyes slowly opened.
With her naked eyes, she could see that the mist-like spiritual energy around her was slowly sinking. There seemed to be a strange suction force below, absorbing the mist-like spiritual energy continuously.
"Damn it!" Fang Ting cursed after observing for a moment.
Then, she ran her mental skills crazily, trying to absorb more mist-like spiritual energy.
Must race against time!
There is not much mist-like spiritual energy contained in this small mist spirit pool. If you delay any longer, you will get even less spiritual energy in the end.
Below, where Lu Chen is.
"What a pleasure! What a pleasure!"
"Although these mist-like auras are not as powerful as spiritual liquids, they still contain very majestic energy. Now that I have reached the acquired perfection state, I cannot directly use this energy to improve my cultivation, but once I step into the innate state, I can
With the help of these mist-like auras, you can quickly increase your strength!"
"I suck!"
Lu Chen excitedly activated the Qiankun Mental Technique, absorbing the mist-like aura that gradually became thinner around him. All of this mist-like aura entered a vortex in Lu Chen's abdomen and was temporarily stored.
"Lu Chen, go down there quickly!"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in Lu Chen's mind.
It was the voice of ancestor Lu Jie, and there was actually some anxiety in this voice.
"Huh?" Lu Chen was slightly startled.
This time, he was not frightened by the voice. This was not the first time that Patriarch Lu Jie suddenly spoke in his mind. Last time, when he was choosing martial arts within the family, Patriarch Lu Jie suddenly spoke.
Only then can you finally choose the magical power of Tathagata Mahavairocan.
Lu Chen was a little confused. What did Ancestor Lu Jie want him to do under the Wuling Pond?
Now he is in a very low position. The mist-like spiritual energy in this mist spirit pool is getting thinner and thinner, and it is about to disappear completely.
At this time, do you still want to go down there?
"Move quickly, don't dawdle!" Ancestor Lu Jie's voice urged again and again.
Lu Chen stood up, mobilized his inner strength, and walked down the steep wall.
"That is……"
After dozens of breaths, Lu Chen's pupils suddenly shrank. In the darkness, there was actually a silver halo flickering and dancing.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" This silver halo is not stationary, but is constantly moving at high speed. Moreover, the speed is extremely fast. If it weren't for the fact that the light is too obvious in this darkness, maybe even Lu Chen
, it is difficult to keep up with the moving speed of the silver halo.
what is that?
Lu Chen took a slight breath and became a little nervous.
This is the Wuling Pond, and he is a hundred meters deep underground at this time. Suddenly seeing this weird scene, it would be obviously a lie to say that he is not nervous. Although Lu Chen is good at strength, he is just
A cultivator who has never even entered the realm of innateness.
How could there be such a weird thing in the depths of Wuling Pond?
"Boy, what are you still doing? You're lucky! You haven't captured that spiritual seed yet." Lu Jie's voice came again.
"Spiritual seed?" Lu Chen frowned slightly.
He seemed to have seen or heard this name somewhere, but it didn't make a deep impression on him.
"Yes, that is the spiritual seed, and it has been nurtured for a long time. This thing will be of great benefit to your cultivation." Lu Jie said in an anxious voice.
"Ancestor, what is a spiritual seed?" Lu Chen thought for a moment, but still couldn't remember what a spiritual seed was. He simply asked Lu Jie directly.
"Spirit beasts have some things in common with humans. Like humans, spirit beasts themselves also have souls. After the death of low-level spirit beasts, the souls are too weak and dissipate in an instant. But
Advanced spirit beasts with strong souls can survive for a period of time. The more powerful the spirit beast, the more powerful the spirit is. Of course, the souls of most advanced spirit beasts will also completely dissipate after staying for a period of time."
"However, there is a special situation."
"After the death of some amazingly powerful spiritual beasts, their souls happened to drift to a place with rich spiritual energy. Then, the spiritual beast's spiritual soul can absorb the spiritual energy on its own, continuously strengthen the soul, and slowly form a spiritual seed. This
For cultivators, spiritual seeds are a heaven-defying tonic. Any cultivator will be tempted by spiritual seeds in front of them." Ancestor Lu Jie spoke very quickly and explained the origin of spiritual seeds.
.
Lu Chen, after hearing this, almost knew the origin of the spiritual seed.
"Ancestor, is this silver halo the soul left behind after the death of a spiritual beast?" Lu Chen's eyes also began to shine, twinkling.
Of course Lu Chen wants to get something that can bring huge benefits to his own cultivation.
Moreover, judging from the attitude of Patriarch Lu Jie, the rarity of spiritual species is definitely extraordinary. Otherwise, Patriarch Lu Jie would not be so eager.
"right!"
"Stop talking nonsense and capture that spirit seed quickly. If it escapes, I can't spare you! Be careful, the spirit seed is also capable of attacking." Lu Jie shouted in a deep voice.
Lu Jie didn't need to remind him, Lu Chen was also prepared.
This spiritual species moves so fast that once it leaves the Wuling Pond, it is impossible for Lu Chen to catch up. Not to mention him, Lu Chen, it is the Wuji Realm strongman Qiao Ruxue and Qiao Ruxue who are outside at this time.
Fang Ruhai and the two of them might not be able to catch up with the speed of this spiritual species.
Therefore, if you want to successfully capture the spirit seed, you must prevent it from escaping upwards.
"boom!"
The internal energy in the martial arts meridians suddenly flowed out and surged towards the silver halo.
The silver halo seemed to feel threatened. The halo that was originally a ball suddenly became distorted.
Lu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. At this moment, he finally saw clearly the form of the spiritual species in the silver halo. It was a spiritual beast that looked like a bird.
"Wow!"
A mighty power rushed toward Lu Chen from the spiritual seed.
"What a powerful force!"
"This spiritual species should not have a strong consciousness, but when faced with threats, it also has the subconscious mind to fight back." Lu Chen felt this power and suddenly understood in his heart.
This power is very powerful, far beyond what ordinary innate realm warriors can match. However, this power lacks agility and its attack method is relatively simple. For Lu Chen, as long as he is careful, he can completely avoid being directly attacked by this power.
hit.
If he was hit directly, Lu Chen wouldn't be able to bear it.
However, the attack method of this power is very simple, and it is difficult to hit Lu Chen. If this power is placed in the hands of a practitioner, the threat will be great.
Lu Chen's figure dodged slightly to avoid the spirit seed's counterattack. The force dissipated before it could hit Lu Chen.
"Want to run?" Lu Chen saw that the spirit species was about to rush upward after the counterattack failed.
Lu Chen had already prepared, and a burst of internal force rolled out, blocking all the upward routes. Lu Chen, of course, could not let this spirit species rush out of the mist spirit pool. Once the spirit species rushed out, even if the spiritual species failed in the end,
If you escape, you will definitely fall into the hands of the powerful ones in the Wuji Realm above.
This Wuling Pond is not owned by Lu Chen, he only has the qualifications to use the Wuling Pond to practice. The spiritual seeds bred in the Wuling Pond are naturally not Lu Chen's.
Even if Qiao Ruxue and Fang Ruhai treated Lu Chen more favorably, they would not give their precious spiritual seeds to Lu Chen.
Therefore, Lu Chen must do his best to capture the spirit seed at the bottom of the mist spirit pond.
"What?"
"Soul attack?" Just when Lu Chen used his internal power to block the route, a shadowless and invisible energy actually invaded Lu Chen's sea of consciousness.
If Lu Chen's sea of consciousness had not been opened up, it would be impossible to feel this hidden power. In other words, even cultivators in the innate perfection realm would have a hard time detecting this power.
"Illusion!"
"Break it for me!"
"I didn't expect that this spiritual species has the ability to create illusions in people. It's really difficult to deal with."
Just after Lu Chen wiped out the strange energy that invaded his consciousness and broke away from the illusion, he felt a powerful attack force coming in front of him.
It can be said that if Lu Chen broke through the illusion a little slower, then the attack of the spiritual species would fall on him this time. The consequence would be that Lu Chen died here.
"Whoosh!"
Before this attack hit his body, Lu Chen managed to avoid it again.
"call!"
"I'm afraid not even cultivators at the innate perfection realm can successfully capture this spiritual seed. Only those who have opened up the sea of consciousness and are strong in the Wuji realm can quickly get rid of the soul attack of the spiritual seed." Lu Chen exhaled softly.
After several battles, Lu Chen finally mastered the attack methods of this spiritual species.
The attack methods of this spiritual species can be roughly divided into two types: ordinary physical attacks and spiritual attacks. Ordinary physical attacks, pure attacks, pose little threat to innate cultivators. However, if the physical attacks are combined with the weird and difficult to defend spiritual attacks,
The threat is not the slightest bit.
First, it uses spiritual attacks to cause illusions and troubles to the cultivators, and then uses physical attacks to fiercely bombard the cultivators' bodies. Being hit by such a force, a strong person in the Wuji Realm will also be severely injured.
