The secret room on the top floor of the Lihe Palace was shrouded in white mist.
Elder Fu Zhi stood with his hands behind his back, while the Yin-Yang Clutch Mirror was still suspended in front of him. The crystal light in the mirror was flickering, and a ray of light continued to emerge from the mirror and extend into the void in the distance.
Suddenly, Elder Fu Zhi had a thought in his mind and raised his sleeves and robes in front of him. Under a white glow, a round water mirror suddenly appeared in front of him.
The water mirror is crystal clear, and the edge exudes a hair-like freshness.
A wave of light flowed down the mirror, and a scene clearly appeared inside the water mirror. It was exactly what Liu Ming was doing in the stone house.
At this moment, the black and white air currents on his body had turned into two dragons, circling around his body.
"He is indeed an interesting boy. His magic power has been refined to such an extent. Under the protection of the Yin-Yang clutch mirror, he can separate Yin and Yang effortlessly..." Fu Zhi murmured interestingly.
"However, this is just the first step to help you take the crystal transformation. The real difficulty is still behind.
This secret elder seemed to be quite interested in Liu Ming. After he finished talking to himself, he shook his sleeves and the water mirror immediately cracked and opened again.
As time passed, a crisp sound of "pop" suddenly sounded in the stone house where Liu Ming was located.
The last jade bottle in front of Liu Ming also shattered into pieces. As he activated the spell in his hand, a scarlet flame wrapped around the Yunyang Pill and flew into his mouth.
Suddenly, he felt that in the spiritual sea, as if a big stone was thrown into the boiling water, the vortex-like liquid essence inside began to violently churn again.
Liu Ming's complexion became extremely pale, and the Dantian area of his lower abdomen was like a knife constantly gouging out, while the black and white aura on his body swirled around his body, suddenly turning into a fog ball about ten feet in size, and
His figure was completely concealed.
At this moment, the true essence in Liu Ming's spiritual sea has condensed into a gel, and at the same time it emits waves of strong mana fluctuations.
The vitality of heaven and earth near the Lihe Palace seemed to have received some kind of influence at this moment, and gradually gathered in one place, forming a gray swirling cloud.
"Not even close!"
Liu Ming was naturally more aware of the situation in his body at this moment than Talisman. The true essence in the spiritual sea had turned into gelatin, and it was obviously only one step away from being condensed into crystals.
He gritted his teeth and suddenly turned it over with one hand. There was another white vial in his hand, which was crushed directly by it.
A black Huhu elixir was thrown into his mouth. It was the Wumang elixir he got during the outer sect competition.
The next moment, he moved the fingers of his hands quickly, and a ball of black energy flew out from between his eyebrows. It turned into a bone shield with flashing black light, which was the Jiuyi Skeleton Shield.
But Liu Ming saw one magic trick after another, falling on the Jiu Yi Shield.
"open!"
He let out a low cry and grabbed the void with one hand.
The hazy black light flew out from Jiuyi's shield, flashed, and then disappeared into his body.
Yan Jue, who originally refined the Jiuyi Skeleton Shield, wanted to upgrade the shield to the prototype of a magic weapon. Then he used its power to help him break through the crystallization stage, but now he got an advantage over Liu Ming in vain.
"Boom!"
The fog ball covering Liu Ming's body made a thunderous sound, and countless vortexes appeared on the surface of the fog ball, and then slowly entered its body.
In the spiritual sea, the gelatinous mana finally changed again and began to gather in the middle.
The sky above the Lihe Palace suddenly fluctuated greatly, and the gray clouds turned into a whirlpool. All the spiritual energy in a radius of several miles was absorbed, and it grew bigger and bigger.
But at this moment, the gray cloud that had grown to a size of more than ten feet suddenly began to shake violently, and suddenly collapsed with several loud "rumbling" sounds.
The next moment, an extremely thick and huge black light pillar suddenly broke through the sky above the Lihe Palace. Silver snakes danced wildly in the light pillar, and the deafening sound of thunder spread far in all directions.
In the black light beam, nine pearl-like white light spots could be clearly seen. After a while, they circled around and then disappeared into the clutch palace as the black light beam retracted.
"I really didn't expect that this boy actually succeeded in crystallization, but only nine mana crystals were formed. It was possible that there were only three spiritual veins. This is extremely rare, but unfortunately it doesn't have much potential." Elder Fu Zhi raised his hand.
First, he seemed to be able to see the scene in the black light pillar with his eyes straight through the top of the palace. He nodded and said, then shook his head, and then closed his eyes and said nothing.
In the stone house, there was neither sadness nor joy on Liu Ming's face. As the nine crystals began to slowly flow in the spiritual sea, his hands continued to play magic spells. Just as the fluctuations of the true energy in the spiritual sea gradually calmed down,
A strong purple light suddenly burst out from his body.
"Well……"
Liu Ming suddenly showed a look of pain, and his body suddenly stiffened, accompanied by regular bursts of severe stinging pain, and dense circles of light purple spirit patterns appeared on the surface of his body, which actually matched his body's demonic transformation.
At that time, there were some similarities.
After the purple light on his body flashed for a while, with each sting, a purple crystal the size of a thumb appeared.
This continuous stinging pain occurred one hundred and forty-four times before it suddenly stopped!
Among the purple light emitting from the body surface at this moment, there are one hundred and forty-four crystals that are the same as the nine crystals just now, but the color is purple!
The soft sounds of "bang" and "bang" sounded almost at the same time!
Before Liu Ming could react, these crystals turned into a jet-black demonic energy and exploded at the same time.
Liu Ming only felt his body tremble, and his clothes shook. The soul-nurturing bag hanging on his waist was also blown out and landed several feet away. A burst of black gas came out of the mouth of the bag.
After a while, the Bone Scorpion and the Flying Skull suddenly appeared from the black air.
The stiff feeling dissipated instantly, and purple spiritual patterns that appeared only after being transformed appeared on his skin, covering his whole body.
"This..." Liu Ming himself was a little stunned, but he could clearly feel the majestic power coming out of his body, and his mana was several times that of the previous gun.
With a thought in his mind, he flicked his fingers, and with a "pop" sound, a purple shadow shot out and hit the wall of the stone house.
There was a sharp "chi" sound, and a hole the size of a finger suddenly appeared on the wall reinforced by defensive restrictions.
Liu Ming looked at his palm in a daze. Just now, he had only used less than 30% of his strength to break through the restrictions in the stone house. You must know that the restrictions here are to defend against the people who have just transformed into crystals. They cannot control them.
It is set up to contain the tyrannical mana within the body.
Ordinary crystal cultivators may not be able to shake the restrictions here even with a full blow.
"Master..." Flying Skull and Bone Scorpion hiding in the distance couldn't help but tremble after the powerful spiritual pressure released by Liu Ming unscrupulously.
"Why are you guys out? Oh... come here." Liu Ming first looked at his empty waist, then saw the soul-nurturing bag in the corner, and immediately understood.
As he spoke, he raised his hand and rolled up the two spiritual pets with a black light. At the same time, he withdrew his magic power, and the purple light on his body flashed, and the purple spiritual patterns suddenly disappeared.
In the spiritual sea within Liu Ming's body, purple light flashed, and one hundred and forty-four purple crystals appeared, slowly flowing together with the original nine silver crystals.
"Congratulations to the master for successfully transforming into a crystal!"
Seeing that Liu Ming had returned to his normal appearance, the Bone Scorpion Flying Skull suddenly became flexible and rubbed around Liu Ming, constantly rubbing against Liu Ming's body and clothes.
They are connected to Liu Ming's mind and can naturally feel Liu Ming's excitement at this moment.
The corners of Liu Ming's mouth curled up slightly, and the joy of successfully advancing to the crystallization stage came to his heart bit by bit. As for the mysterious one hundred and forty-four purple crystals, he could only wait until he had the opportunity to find out more about them from Luo Hu.
After comforting the two spiritual pets for a few words, he put them back into the soul-nurturing bag.
At the same time, the light of the yin-yang clutch mirror above the head suddenly dimmed and was quickly withdrawn.
Liu Ming glanced at the roof, but didn't take it seriously and closed his eyes again.
After all, he has just advanced to the crystallization stage, and the true energy in his body has not yet been completely stabilized. He needs to continue to retreat for a period of time and adjust his breath a little.
…
In a certain side hall of Cuiyun Peak, a white-faced man in his thirties was looking at a jade slip in his hand with a surprised look on his face. It was none other than the leader named Lu.
"Liu Ming has really broken through to the realm of crystallization? It seems that I really underestimated him back then." After a long while, Leader Lu said slowly.
"Senior Brother Lu, you and I both concluded that this son Liu Ming would not be able to advance to the crystallization stage because of his three spiritual veins. That's why we missed recruiting him to this peak many times. This son was in the competition in the outer courtyard.
As well as the performance of challenging the Void Spirit Tower to break through the thirty-sixth floor in one go, you and I both know this. It is really a pity." On the other side, Haoyue, who looked like a short boy, said this, and shook his head with a look of pity.
Shake his head.
"With the body of three spiritual veins, one can break through the bottleneck of the crystallization stage in one go. This is very rare in the history of our Taiqing Sect. Could it be that this child has some obscure physique, but you and I have
Not found." Leader Lu said after thinking for a moment.
"I have also made guesses about this, but I heard that after the competition, people from other mountain peaks also checked it, but the three spiritual veins are definitely not wrong, and there should be no obscure spirits or the like. Maybe it is
This boy may have another chance." Haoyue shook her head again.
"Well, in this case. Even if Liu Ming advanced to the crystallization stage by various opportunities, it will be extremely difficult to go further in the future. You and I don't have to be too sorry." The leader named Lu sighed.
He said with a change of tone.
Hearing this, Haoyue nodded slightly without saying anything, but a thoughtful look flashed across her face.
(First update! There will still be three updates today!)
