Chapter Five Hundred and Fifteen The Second Turn of Sublime Cultivation
"Fellow Daoist Shi, here is the essence and blood of the Heavenly Beast Bai Ze, please check it." The fat steward said, placing the two jade bottles in his hands on the table.
Shi Mu was not polite, reached out to take the white jade bottle, took off the talisman on it, and opened the cork.
Suddenly, a very gloomy and cold breath came out of it and hit his face, causing the temperature in the room to drop sharply.
This level of aura impact was no problem for Shi Mu. He calmed down slightly and looked through the mouth of the bottle.
In the jade bottle is a small drop of blue liquid, which looks extremely pure without a trace of impurities, and exudes a powerful cold aura, far above the ice spider demon pill.
Shi Mu nodded. Although the aura emitted by this drop of blue liquid was not as strong as the white ape's essence and blood, and the purity was not as high, it was undoubtedly a drop of heavenly beast's essence and blood.
He sealed the jade bottle, picked up another bottle, checked it, and showed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
"There's nothing wrong with the stuff." He said, waving his hand and putting away the two bottles.
The fat steward chuckled, waved his sleeves, and put away the things on the table.
In this way, both parties are happy.
After Shi Mu chatted with the other party for a few more words, he stood up and left Tianbao Pavilion without staying in Tianbao Pavilion, and then left Tongliufang directly.
After returning to the cave, he immediately ordered Qi Feng to summon all his attendants.
A moment later, nearly three hundred attendants, except Cui Huan, gathered in a square in front of his mansion. Everyone looked towards a temporary high platform in front of them.
On the high platform, Shi Mu stood with his hands behind his back, and Cai'er stood on his shoulders.
Speaking of which, it has been almost a year since he came here, but during that time he was either practicing in seclusion or traveling far away. The affairs here were basically left to Cai'er and Qi Feng to take care of. Most of the people here have hardly been seen.
However, because he distributed one-tenth of the harvest from the spiritual land to all his attendants, this move was quite popular. Everyone's enthusiasm for planting spiritual grass and spiritual flowers was unprecedentedly high. On the contrary, the harvest of some spiritual grasses that did not have high requirements for the year soared.
, the income is also much higher than any previous year.
I learned this from Qi Feng.
"Master of the Palace, everyone is here." Qi Feng stood at the front, took a step forward, and said to Shi Mu with his hands raised.
Shi Mu nodded slightly and said loudly:
"Everyone, during this period of time, everything in the spiritual land has been in order, and the harvest of spiritual grass and spiritual materials has been abundant, which makes me feel very relieved. In the next period of time, I will go out for something, and Qi Feng and you will continue to be in charge of the cave. Everything will be as usual.
"
"Yes!" Qi Feng and several stewards beside him nodded in agreement.
"In addition, I announce that in addition to the 10% of the harvest promised before, 20% of the annual income in the future that is more than the previous year will be used as a reward. As for how to distribute it, Qi Feng and Cai'er will decide together."
As soon as these words came out, all the attendants looked happy, and then they raised their hands in unison and said:;
"Thank you, Master!"
"Shitou, what are you going out for this time? Why don't you plan to take me with you?" Cai'er asked.
"The environment in that place is extremely harsh, it's freezing cold, and there's not much to eat. If you go there, you might just have to stay in the spirit beast bag for a long time. What, do you really want to go?" Shi Mu said.
"That's it... Shitou, you can go with peace of mind. Leave this place to me and Fatty Qi, so just be at ease!" Cai'er heard this and said quickly.
When Shi Mu heard this, he shook his head and smiled in his heart.
…
More than half a month later, north of Qinglan City, in front of the ice cave where Shi Mu had found the extremely yin energy.
Shi Mu, wearing fur clothes, stood on a small hill and looked around.
This place is still covered with ice and snow, and the traces of the last battle with Lu Jing and Liao Yong have long been completely covered by the white snow.
After Shi Mu withdrew his gaze, he closed his eyes and the consciousness in his body spread, covering dozens of miles in radius.
After a while, he opened his eyes, with a hint of joy on his face.
No one else's aura was detected in the scope of his spiritual consciousness. It seemed that Lu Jing and Liao Yong had already left here, which made him sigh in relief and walked into the ice cave.
Shi Mu turned his eyes and glanced at the entrance of the ice cave ahead. Then with a few flashes of his body, he jumped into the ice cave. Then he turned around, with a white light from his left hand, and punched the cave wall hard.
superior.
Wow!
Half of the mountain wall at the entrance to the ice cave suddenly collapsed, burying the entrance.
Shi Mu nodded with satisfaction and continued walking inside.
With the experience from the previous time, he quickly came to the cave where he fought the ice spider last time. The traces of the battle here were still clearly visible.
He waved his hands, and blue rays of light flew out of his hands and landed near the ice cave, which were array flags.
After a while, these formation flags emitted a burst of blue light and condensed into a blue formation light curtain.
Shi Mu nodded with satisfaction. This was a set of water-attribute arrays he had specially purchased before coming here. It was a high-level array that had the dual functions of masking aura and defending.
After doing all this, he sat down cross-legged in the cave. With a wave of his hand, he took out the two bottles of Heavenly Beast Bai Ze's essence and blood, placed them in front of him, then closed his eyes and sat up quietly.
A full half day passed, and when he opened his eyes again, there was a faint light in his eyes, and both his mood and mental strength were at their peak.
With a sudden wave of his hand, he took off the talisman on a jade bottle containing Bai Ze's essence and blood, and opened the bottle cap.
A biting chill suddenly emanated from the bottle, and the already extremely low temperature around him immediately dropped a lot.
Shi Mu's body also shook slightly, but he immediately calmed down.
He took a deep breath, waved his right hand, and a small ball of crystal blue liquid flew out of the bottle, turning into a mini beast that looked like an elk and landed on his right hand.
His eyes flashed with golden light, and he glanced at the little beast as if it had substance.
The little beast suddenly trembled, let out a silent roar, and then suddenly dissipated. A layer of blue ice crystals immediately appeared on Shi Mu's palm and spread toward his arm.
Shi Mu's expression tightened, and he immediately activated the second turn of the Nine Turns Mysterious Gong.
A hazy light appeared on his right hand, the blue liquid slowly blended into his palm, and the blue ice crystals also faded away little by little.
Seeing this, Shi Mu's face relaxed and he continued to use the technique.
Three full days passed before the blue ice crystals on the palm of his right hand completely faded, and the blood of the heavenly beast Bai Ze was completely integrated into his palm.
His eyes fell on the jade bottle on the ground, and he waved his hand again, and another stream of blue blood flew out and landed on his right hand.
…
Time passed little by little. A full half a year passed, and all the essence and blood of the two bottles of Bai Zetian Beast were integrated into Shi Mu's body.
At this moment, Shi Mu's right arm emitted a burst of blue light, and a shadow of a strange beast vaguely appeared behind him.
This beast has blue hair all over its body and is shaped like an elk. It has coral-like red horns on its head and a pair of wide wings on its back. It looks extremely majestic.
The blue light on Shi Mu's arm dissipated, and he turned over his hand and took out a white jade bottle, which contained a wisp of high-grade extremely yin energy obtained from the Ice Spider Demon Pill.
He took a deep breath, and with one hand, the ray of extremely yin air flew out of the bottle, slowly flew to his right hand, fell down, and wrapped around his right hand like a snake.
Shi Mu's right hand was immediately frozen by a layer of white ice, and his body shook suddenly, with a look of extreme pain on his face.
The ice power of the extremely Yin Qi far exceeds that of Bai Ze's essence and blood. If his right hand had not been integrated with Bai Ze's essence and blood, which greatly increased its cold resistance, at this moment, his right hand would have been affected by the extremely cold power of the Extreme Yin Qi.
Completely frozen to death.
Even after incorporating Bai Ze's essence and blood, he still felt severe pain in his arm that was unbearable.
Shi Mu gritted his teeth and silently ran the soul-soothing spell to suppress the pain. After a while, his face looked better.
He closed his eyes and silently performed the second turn of the Nine Turns Mysterious Gong.
After a moment, a layer of faint black brilliance appeared on his right hand, and the white ice formed by the extremely yin energy was slowly absorbed by the black light.
Shi Mu looked slightly happy, knowing that the second level of the Nine Transformations Mysterious Technique had finally begun.
He calmed down his mind and continued to operate the technique.
Time flies, time flies.
Five years passed in the blink of an eye, and Shi Mu was sitting cross-legged in the cave, not moving at all. A thick layer of white frost had already appeared on his body, and his whole body looked like an ice sculpture.
…
In the medicinal field of Qinglan Holy Land, Shi Mu's spiritual land, two innate warrior attendants tended the spiritual herbs here.
"Well, the master of the palace has been away for five years. I wonder when he will come back?" A young man in green robes glanced in the direction of Shi Mu Cave and said.
"How do you know he can come back? The disciples of Qinglan Holy Land like them may appear to be beautiful, but they are not just born and died. If they are not careful one day, they will die. Every year, countless soul-piercing lamps in Star Soul Palace are extinguished.
In fact, their disciples are not as long-lived as our servants." Another middle-aged man who was slightly older said.
"That's what I say, but Palace Master Shi is still kind to us. I hope nothing happens to him when he goes out this time." The young man in green robe said.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he nodded slightly and said nothing.
"Speaking of which, the palace master's pet parrot has not been seen out these days. It is said that he is practicing in seclusion in the palace master's cave. I wonder if it is true?" The young man in green robe seemed to be in a good mood and asked.
.
"I don't know this, but I haven't seen the parrot in a while," the middle-aged man said.
The green-robed young man's eyes moved, and he was about to say something else. At this moment, a white beam of light rose into the sky in the distance, and a huge pressure spread towards the surroundings. Several attendants in the medicine field were stunned and stared blankly.
That white beam of light.
After a full quarter of an hour, the white light pillar slowly dissipated.
"I remember it was the place where Leng Cuihuan went into seclusion. Looking at the situation, she may have broken through the bottleneck this time!" the middle-aged man murmured.
As he finished speaking, a white ray of light flew from there. After a few breaths, it came to a close place and landed, revealing Leng Cuihuan's figure.
"Manager Leng!" The two looked at each other and hurriedly saluted Leng Cuihuan.
"No need to be polite, let me ask you, is Master Shi in the cave at the moment?" Leng Cuihuan asked.
"The master of the palace left the cave a few years ago, saying he had something to do, and he hasn't been back for five years." The middle-aged man said quickly.
"What, Master Shi has left? He has been gone for five years!" Leng Cuihuan said in surprise when he heard this.
