"I've kept you Taoist Shi waiting for a long time."
Master Gongxi said, turned over his hand and took out an exquisite wooden box and handed it over.
Shi Mu reached out to take it, and took out a crimson leather glove from the wooden box. The texture of the tentacles was quite soft, and tiny rune patterns could be faintly seen on it. There were five golden lines connecting it from the fingertips to the bottom of the glove.
Form a golden rune.
He put the glove on his left hand, and the golden runes on the glove flashed, and an inexplicable force acted on Shi Mu's left hand.
The chaotic and violent spiritual power in his left hand was immediately smoothed away, as if a seal was imposed on the outside.
Shi Mu was overjoyed and moved his left hand. There was no inconvenience.
"In addition to the sealing power, the leather of the Salamander is also very tough. I used a special method to strengthen it. The toughness of this glove has greatly increased. You can use it with confidence in the future," said the old man in black robe.
"Thank you, Master Gongxi." Shi Mu was overjoyed and said with cupped hands.
A quarter of an hour later, Shi Mu left the Immortal Fire Residence and returned to the lava pool of Black Flame Mountain. After taking a short rest, he activated the Yinghuo Formation and continued to practice.
A month later, in the lava pool.
Shi Mu's whole body was wrapped in red light, forming the shape of a giant silkworm cocoon.
The red silkworm cocoon suddenly lit up, and all the light converged and merged into Shi Mu's body.
Shi Mu opened his eyes and frowned.
He has been practicing hard for this month, but for some reason, the Nine Transformations Mysterious Technique has not made any progress and has completely stagnated.
"How could this happen?" Shi Mu was puzzled. This situation had never happened in the past three years.
"Is it because the flame aura here is not strong enough? No, that shouldn't be the reason." Shi Mu guessed in his mind, but quickly rejected the idea.
With the blessing of the Yinghuo Formation transformed by Huo Yanjing, the intensity of the fire attribute spiritual energy here has reached a very frightening level, which can fully meet the needs of the first level of the Nine Transformations Mysterious Technique.
In this case, the reason can only be caused by yourself.
Shi Mu closed his eyes and recited the first level of Jiuzhuan Xuan Gong from beginning to end again.
"Could it be that I don't have enough blood from the heavenly beasts in my body?" His eyes suddenly opened and he thought of a possibility.
According to the description of Xiao Jiu Zhuan Xuan Gong, practicing part of the physical body requires integrating the essence and blood of heavenly beasts into the body. Although the amount of the blood mist he inhaled from the fragrant beads is unknown, it seems that it should not be enough now.
Support him to complete this first turn of cultivation.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Since this white ape appeared in Lingtian Peak in a dream and was respected by other demon clans, it seems that he must be the white ape king rumored among the demon clans in Xihe Continent.
He didn't know much about the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique before, but now that he has practiced the first stage, he has the power to shatter the void. The white ape in the dream is a heavenly beast. After practicing it, he has extremely powerful power.
It is beyond my own ability. In this case, it makes sense to lead the demon tribe to sweep across the Xihe Road and force the barbarians to huddle in the eastern part of the continent.
He has been wanting to go to Lingtian Peak for these years, originally to further trigger the dream and find some other magical powers such as the moon-swallowing style and the sun-absorbing style, so as to quickly increase his strength.
Now that we have the clear goal of Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique, the top priority is to find more white ape essence and blood to complete the first level of Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique.
But Shi Mu had no idea where to find the white ape's essence and blood.
Apart from guessing that the white ape was a celestial beast, he was completely blind to the rest.
"correct!"
Shi Mu suddenly thought of something, turned over his hand and took out the map of Xihe Continent, and looked at a sharp area somewhere on the map, which was Lingtian Peak.
Now that I know that the white ape once appeared in Lingtian Peak, if I try my luck there, I might be able to find some other clues and get more information about the white ape.
Shi Mu stared intently at the pointed corner, feeling a little dazed.
Suddenly, the world was spinning in front of my eyes.
The next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed, and Shi Mu found himself in an unknown valley.
He immediately realized that he had once again transformed into the body of a white ape and could not control his actions.
Unknowingly, he fell into a dream again.
It was dark at this time, and the surroundings were completely silent. Occasionally, the sound of gurgling water could be heard from around the valley.
In mid-air, a faint ray of moonlight poured down from mid-air, outlining a somewhat blurry scene.
There are already rugged rocks in this valley, but now under the moonlight at night, those rocks seem to be alive, and they look quite ferocious with their teeth and claws.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound coming from the surroundings, and then four black shadows came out almost silently. Judging from their appearance, there were apes, giant bears, red foxes, and bulls. They all looked like...
Monster clan.
These monsters seemed to be headed by White Ape, and they all prostrated themselves in front of White Ape and said something respectfully.
The white ape pondered for a moment, then ran towards the mouth of the valley without saying a word.
Seeing this, the other four demon clans followed closely.
Soon, they passed through a jungle and came to a towering mountain peak.
This peak is ten thousand feet high and steep, like a smooth stone pillar reaching to the sky. It looks majestic.
Shi Mu was startled. This peak was actually the famous Ling Tian Peak.
White Ape led four demon tribesmen around the mountain peak and stopped in front of a certain cliff.
But when he turned his hand and took out a dark red crystal stone, and muttered something in his mouth, the light suddenly flowed on the surface of the crystal in his hand, and a beam of light shot out from it, falling on the cliff in front.
There was a roar on the cliff, and a cave was revealed.
The white ape led the beasts in, and after walking through a winding and damp path, it suddenly became enlightened. A huge space of several hundred feet appeared in front of them. It may have been closed for a long time, and the space exuded a damp stench.
In the center of this space, there stand twelve giant gray stone pillars, each of which is about ten feet in diameter.
Bronze lamps were placed at intervals on the surrounding cliffs. White Ape waved his hand, and bursts of white fireflies suddenly appeared on the lamps, illuminating the entire space.
Their vision suddenly brightened in the darkness, and they saw clearly that each of the twelve gray stone pillars was carved with a lifelike pattern of a monster. There were twelve different kinds of monsters in the twelve stone pillars. At this moment, they were
Under the illumination of white fireflies, it looks a bit ferocious and terrifying.
The giant bear demon clan couldn't bear to be curious and reached out to touch one of the gryphon-like statues. The statue suddenly let out a low whimpering sound.
Bai Yuan frowned slightly, immediately pulled away from the demon clan, and quickly cast a magic spell.
In an instant, bursts of faint light flickered on the stone pillars, and the gryphon seemed to be covered with a transparent light curtain. The gryphon in the light curtain gradually calmed down and returned to normal.
White Ape glared at the giant bear demon clan fiercely, and then said something to them. All the demons were shocked, and no one dared to touch these statues.
Bai Yuan led four monsters around the stone pillar and entered from the passage on one side of the space. After a while of twists and turns, they came to a secret room.
The secret room is not big, only twenty or thirty feet in size. However, in the center of the roof, there is a stone door as white as jade. It is made of an unknown stone material, and its surface also emits a warm light.
Bai Yuan turned his hand and took out a token and waved it towards the stone door, which slowly opened.
Without saying a word, White Ape raised one hand, and a roll of golden light flew out, wrapped around the four demon clans, and turned into a golden rainbow and flew into the stone door.
Shi Mu felt a golden light flash before his eyes, and the next moment, he appeared in a huge palace.
In the center of the hall, there is a golden altar with circles of mysterious spiritual patterns engraved on its surface.
White Ape walked to the altar and took out a square wooden box from somewhere on his body. The box seemed to be made of ebony, and it was dark and shiny under the illumination of white fireflies.
He placed the box in the center of the altar and whispered a few words to the four demon clansmen.
The four demon tribes nodded one after another and sat cross-legged around the altar, mumbling words as if they were casting spells.
The next moment, the spiritual pattern on the altar's surface shone brightly, and densely packed runes emerged, slowly rotating around the wooden box.
The four monsters suddenly opened their mouths and each sprayed out a mouthful of blood essence. The essence blood circled and intertwined above the box, gradually merging to form a bloody ring, and pressed directly on the box.
The moment the bloody ring pressed down, the wooden box trembled violently for some unknown reason, as if something was trying to escape from it.
The faces of the four demon clansmen sitting around changed drastically, and they were a little at a loss.
Seeing this, Bai Yuan raised an arm, and a red light shot out from his fingertips. It was a drop of blood, and it landed on top of the wooden box in a flash, spinning quickly.
Large swaths of golden light spilled down from the swirling essence and blood. The wooden box was bathed in the golden light and finally gradually stopped.
White Ape roared, and the four surrounding monsters looked solemn and accelerated their spellcasting.
The rotation range of the runes that appeared on the surface of the altar became smaller and smaller, and finally attached to the wooden box. With a flash of light, the wooden box disappeared from its original place.
At the same time, the white ape's essence and blood that was spinning on the wooden box stopped spinning, and fell down in a flash, turning into a thumb-sized crystal blood jade, embedded in the center of the altar, exuding the glow of blood.
Shi Mu's body shook and he woke up from his dream.
He was stunned for a moment, with an overjoyed look on his face.
Someone gave me a pillow if I was really sleepy, and there was actually a drop of blood essence left by the white ape in Lingtian Peak.
In this way, it is imperative for Ling Tianfeng to do so.
It's just that it's the holy land of the demon clan. Although he has advanced to the earth level now, if he doesn't have the cover of the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, he may still be in great risk if he approaches rashly.
Shi Mu pondered for a moment, then turned over his hand and took out an object, which was Yu Yi's Yuan Shen Bead. A ray of light entered the bead.
Half an hour later, Yu Yi arrived at the lava pool.
"Brother Shi, why did you summon me to come here?" Yu Yi bowed respectfully to Shi Mu.
"Do you still have contact with the transformed demon clan that you have business dealings with?" Shi Mu asked.
"There are a few of you who have a good relationship with me," Yu Yi replied.
"Have you heard anything about Lingtian Peak from these people?" Shi Mu asked.
"I wonder what kind of information Brother Shi wants to know?" Yu Yi was slightly startled, but then said.
"The guard situation around Lingtian Peak." Shi Mu looked at Yu Yi with bright eyes and said.
"As far as I know, Lingtian Peak is jointly guarded by the three major groups of the demon clan: Moon Bear, Sky Fox, and Cang Yuan. It is extremely guarded on weekdays and outsiders cannot enter at all. Moreover, there is a heaven-level demon king stationed in the peak all year round, who wants to sneak in
It is extremely difficult to get in, basically impossible." Yu Yi pondered for a moment and whispered. (To be continued.)
