Shi Mu's body softened and he knelt half on the ground, breathing heavily and secretly rejoicing in his heart.
If the flowing fire tide lasted for another half moment, he might not be able to hold on, and his soul would be destroyed in the scorching hot tide.
After breathing for a moment, Shi Mu stood up and looked forward.
There is not much road ahead. At the end more than a hundred feet away, there is an exit, but the surface is gray and foggy, making it difficult to see what is outside.
Shi Mu pondered for a moment and continued walking forward.
As expected, after going through the test of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, at least this section is safe and no more mishaps have occurred.
He quickly walked to the exit, looked at the mist in front of him that his spiritual consciousness could not penetrate, hesitated slightly, and took a step out.
Immediately afterwards, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and he appeared in an empty hall.
Looking around, there was nothing around but a white light group floating in the center of the hall, emitting a faint light.
Shi Mu looked at it carefully and his eyes were filled with joy.
Judging from all the signs in front of him, he should have passed the labyrinth restriction test set by the White Ape Ancestor and reached the end.
Shi Mu looked at the white ball of light, walked over, and soon stood in front of the ball of light.
Just when he stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the light group, the light group rolled up as if it was spiritual.
Seeing this, Shi Mu was slightly startled, and couldn't help but jump back, appearing several feet away.
At this moment, a majestic voice came out from the white light group:
"Jiangbei Island, since you can pass the Eight-door Cave Heavenly Formation and the Five Elements Heavenly Punishment Formation set up by me, I will abide by my promise and teach you the second-turn and nine-turn Xuan Gong formula. However, this technique is not for you. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, you have to weigh it yourself..."
When Shi Mu heard this, his expression changed slightly. This sentence should have been left by the White Ape Ancestor. It was originally intended as a bet for Jiangbei Island. Unexpectedly, today, thousands of years later, he passed the test.
As soon as the White Ape Ancestor's voice fell, the white light group suddenly flashed, and countless white light points flew out one by one. Under a burst of flickering in the mid-air, each light point turned into a character, and a line appeared in the mid-air. Rows are suspended.
Shi Mu's heart moved, his eyes flashed with golden light, and he stared at the characters in mid-air, memorizing them quickly.
Half a quarter of an hour later, he closed his eyes. He had completely memorized the content of these white characters. Comparing it with the first nine-turn Xuan Gong technique, it was the second nine-turn Xuan Gong that followed it. Transformation method.
"Didn't that Qing Yuan say that there are two or three rotations of exercises hidden in the Heaven-turning Staff's restrictions? Why are there only two-and-a-half-turn exercises? Could it be..." Shi Mu suddenly thought of something.
At this moment, those white characters suddenly disappeared, and countless white lights appeared in the hall.
Shi Mu's eyes blurred, his mind was confused, and he fell into a coma.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly woke up and turned around. He was surrounded by a stone wall, emitting bursts of faint red light.
Shi Mu had a clever idea in his mind and sat up immediately, with great joy on his face.
After being trapped in the Heaven-turning Stick for a month, Yuanshen finally returned to the real world.
He quickly closed his eyes again and began to look inside at the situation inside his body.
Fortunately, my physical body is still strong. Compared with a month ago, my energy has been depleted a lot, but there is nothing serious. But if it is another month, it will be hard to say.
Upon thinking of this, Shi Mu relaxed a little and began to impatiently comprehend the second-turn formula of Xuan Gong that he had obtained before.
After a while, Shi Mu opened his eyes, his eyes full of surprise.
In the past, I just memorized it by rote in the maze, but now after careful comparison, I discovered that the second turn and the first turn of this mysterious skill actually took completely different paths.
The first turn of the Nine Turns Xuan Gong strives to be as strong as possible, so that Shi Mu's left hand possesses the power of the true fire of the extreme yang. However, the second turn of the technique requires him to follow the path of the extreme yin, which is not only necessary during practice.
If you find a place that is very yin and cold, you have to take in a lot of extremely yin energy at the beginning of your practice.
"Extremely Yin Qi..." Shi Mu frowned slightly and murmured to himself.
Since Shi Mu had always practiced techniques related to Yang Fire, he didn't know much about the most yin things except that he had dabbled in the yin and cold energy when he was practicing the Powerful Demon Ape Rebirth Art.
Shi Mu immediately stood up from the futon and planned to go to Xuanling Pagoda's market to see if there were any spiritual materials related to the extremely yin energy.
As soon as he walked out of the secret room, Shi Mu felt his eyes blur, and a small shadow rushed towards him.
Shi Mu paused for a moment, then grinned and did not move away, letting the shadow hit his chest.
"Shitou, you've been in seclusion for so long without even saying a word to me, which makes me worried to death!" Cai'er said, half complaining, half aggrieved.
"There was an accident during this retreat. I didn't expect it to take such a long time." Shi Mu said.
"No wonder the connection between me and your spiritual consciousness is intermittent. Don't scare me like this next time, my little heart can't stand so much excitement!" Cai'er stopped on Shi Mu's shoulder and flapped her wings exaggeratedly.
He said while holding his chest.
"By the way, Cai'er, nothing happened at home during the time I was in seclusion, right?" Shi Mu asked.
"Under my management, all the affairs of the cave are arranged in an orderly and joyful way..."
Before Cai'er could finish her words, she paused under Shi Mu's contemptuous eyes.
"Okay, I know what you want to ask. That girl Cuihuan has been practicing in seclusion. During this period, that guy Zhao Sanbao brought someone here again and asked to see you. But she... was killed by me and that fat guy Qi Feng
I got rid of it in a few words. But before he left, he yelled that Zhao Chenlei would come to visit him personally next time." Cai'er said angrily.
"Oh, if he comes, tell me directly." Shi Mu nodded and said.
"Shitou, I think that Cuihuan girl is really good-looking. You take such good care of her, are you thinking of using her as a house filler? Let me tell you, although she is a little worse than Sister Xiuer and the others,
But at any rate..."
There was a soft sound of "Pah!". Before Cai'er could finish her words, Shi Mu struck her on the head with a violent blow.
"Ouch, it hurts! Shitou, you ungrateful guy, it's my fault..."
Before Cai'er finished speaking, her eyes followed the two spiritual stones thrown by Shi Mu and drew an arc in the air. She then opened her mouth to catch the spiritual stones and swallowed them into her belly in twos and twos.
"Cai'er, I'm going to Xuanling Pagoda in a while, so you can go with me." Shi Mu said.
"Okay! I'm worried about you these days and I don't dare to leave the mansion, but it's killing me." Cai'er said quickly.
"Then let's go." Shi Mu said, then took up the Qingyi Speeder and flew away with Cai'er.
After entering the Xuanling Tower, Shi Mu walked directly into the circular light pillar inside the tower, and his figure soon floated up.
Within a moment, a huge circular doorway appeared in front of him, and a burst of noise came through the doorway.
Shi Mu stepped into the doorway and walked a few hundred steps inward when he saw a huge stone standing dozens of feet high not far from his eyes, with the three characters "Tongliu Fang" written on it.
After walking around the boulder, the noise suddenly increased, and Shi Mu saw a straight and wide bluestone street suddenly appeared in front of him, extending to the end of his sight. On this street, there were countless streets intersecting with it.
Horizontal street.
The bluestone street is thirty or forty feet wide, with rows of shops on both sides. Various flags are hung on the eaves of the buildings, and in the middle of the street, you can see stalls set up by some people from time to time.
Most of those horizontal streets are as wide as the Qingshi Street, and only a few are narrower side streets, which accommodate countless shops.
In addition to shops selling spiritual weapons and materials, there are many restaurants, tea shops, inns, etc. here, it looks like another Qinglan City.
On the streets, people were coming and going, and there was a lot of noise. There were all kinds of hawking sounds. Some shops even had waiters at the door to solicit buyers. The lively scene was no worse than Qinglan City.
"Come on, let's take a look, the newly arrived Fire Yuan Crystal from the Fire Source Star..."
"Don't miss it if you are passing by, the top-quality thunderwood produced by Leijixing has just arrived today!"
"The poisonous swamp liquid from the Sky Poison Star is here. Don't miss it if you want to refine poisonous spiritual weapons..."
…
"Wow, if you hadn't brought me here, Shitou, I wouldn't have known there was such a lively place in this holy land!" Cai'er couldn't help but say, staring at everything around her in stunned silence.
Shi Mu was also secretly surprised at this moment. Senior Brother Ling Feng had not brought these new disciples here before, but he had mentioned it verbally. Although he had expected it in his heart, after seeing it with his own eyes, he was still surprised by how beautiful this place was.
So lively.
Shi Mu walked leisurely and walked a few streets. After observation, he found that many of the pedestrians and merchants here were attendants belonging to the disciples of Qinglan Holy Land, and some of them should have entered from Qinglan City through some way.
of this place.
A quarter of an hour later, when Shi Mu passed by a spiritual materials store called "Tianbao Pavilion", he found a fat steward who looked like a human being half lying on a recliner in the store. His heart moved and he stepped inside.
"It turns out that a distinguished guest is here. I'm not welcoming you from afar. I'm rude. I'm rude." When the steward saw Shi Mu coming in, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and said.
The man looked to be in his fifties, wearing a purple robe with a pattern of copper coins with round square holes printed on it, and a round melon-skin cap on his head. He looked like a wealthy old man from the countryside.
"I wonder if there are any spiritual materials containing extremely yin energy in your pavilion?" Shi Mu glanced at him for a few times, and asked directly without being too polite.
"What you want is the extremely yin energy needed to practice the ultimate yin technique?" the fat steward asked in surprise.
"That's right." Shi Mu said.
"Please move to the inner room to discuss in detail." Upon hearing this, the fat steward called a waiter to look at the shop, while he led Shi Mu towards the back of the shop.
