Late at night, all the subordinates went back to their homes. Shan Shinan and his entourage were also placed in various residences. Ye Xuan's small courtyard suddenly became quiet.
Three river soldiers were cleaning up the messy inner courtyard, and only Meng Jiang was left here. Ye Xuan looked at it and felt that the scene now felt a bit deserted.
After all, the courtyard that was bustling and full just a moment ago was now empty in the blink of an eye.
Ye Xuan's eyes swept from the three river soldiers and turned to Meng Jiang.
He nodded slightly at the latter, walked into the bedroom, and soon moved a box that looked like gold and wood, wrapped with heavy chains, in front of Meng Jiang.
This box is ten feet long and is called the 'Black Snake Forbidden Magic Box'.
It was originally a magic weapon that could imprison tyrannical cultivators, but because it currently imprisons a cultivator at the Gang Refining level, and the cultivator's flying sword is still integrated with the box, the box itself is useless for martial arts.
land.
Ye Xuan originally wanted to use the person in the box to become his own incarnation.
However, compared with his external incarnation, the underground fortress of Ping An City is more important at the moment. For the latter, he can only make some sacrifices and use the people in this box as bait to stir up the situation in the scorching heat realm.
The transportation of the mountain of gold and iron serves as a cover.
Seeing Ye Xuan reluctantly pushing the box in front of him, Meng Jiang pursed his lips and smiled, patted the box and said softly: "Brother Tao, if you can't let go of the child, you can't trap the wolf.
What's more, you're just using this box as bait, and you're not really giving it to others, so you don't have to be too nervous."
"Miss Meng still knows me." Ye Xuan originally wanted to say a few words, but when he met Meng Jiang's eyes, he felt guilty for telling lies, so he stopped covering himself up and admitted with an awkward smile that he really couldn't bear to do this.
box.
He coughed a few times, cleared his throat, and continued: "Then, I'll leave it to Meng Jiang to disrupt the heat.
Even if the box is lost, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is that Miss Meng and them get back safely."
When he said this, his face became serious.
Meng Jiang felt warm in her heart, but she deliberately teased Ye Xuandao on her face: "Then if only one of them, Miss Meng, can come back, which one do you hope most to come back?"
"..." Ye Xuan was speechless for a while, and then said more seriously, "In the current war, you must not say such unlucky words!"
Meng Jiang chuckled a few times and stopped teasing Ye Xuan. He agreed that after the matter was completed, Ye Xuan would cook and prepare soup for him every day. He put the box into his bag and held hands with Ye Xuan.
No, go back to your own yard.
Shortly after she left, the ten-layered palace and the nine great hand seals appeared on the dark sky.
Demonic energy surged around the hall, transforming into many strange phenomena, rushing towards the densely packed handprints that blocked the surrounding areas, and then being shattered by the handprints again and again, seemingly without stopping.
Ye Xuan studies the handprints every night and has discovered that the demonic energy in the tenth floor palace has become more and more intense in recent days, and the accumulation has gradually deepened.
When the demonic energy reaches an extreme level, the nine hand seals that surround it will be unable to cope with it and a gap will be opened, allowing evil spirits to take the opportunity to escape from the blockade.
After that, the next demonic wave will come.
Judging from the current speed of the accumulation of demonic energy in the palace, Ye Xuan estimates that the next demonic wave will come in three or four months.
In recent times, the speed of accumulation of demonic energy has not increased, but has gradually slowed down. Ye Xuan is also confused as to why things have become like this.
He put aside all the distracting thoughts, sat down cross-legged, and practiced the Mahamudra of "Array".
By practicing this seal, you can gradually build a practice system that suits you internally, and externally you can gradually acquire the ability to "see the true nature through appearances". You can study the formations and spells with twice the result with half the effort than ordinary practitioners.
As Ye Xuan fell into selfless practice, the vitality around him began to gradually gather and interact with the true energy in Ye Xuan's body. The most pure part was used by him for two purposes, turning the Dou Zi Seal into his own.
Accumulate, the more turbid parts are eliminated from the body, and gradually blend into the world.
Ye Xuan's cultivation level is already at the perfect level of Bone Refining Realm. As long as he has a thought, he can instantly step into the Qi Nourishing Level. With the help of accumulation, he will stay at the Qi Nourishing Level for a while, step into the Qi Realm, and start to practice Qi No. 1.
Realm 'refining pulse'.
But he is obsessed with refining a ray of first-grade Qi, and if he wants to achieve this goal, he must have the support of special skills or elixirs.
At the moment, he doesn't have any special skills or elixirs, so he keeps his cultivation at the bone refining level.
His Dou Zi Seal has successively swallowed up the pure immortal energy after the collapse of the Sword and Weapon Hand Seal, as well as all the cultivation of the fish-scale Yin Shuai. He is still practicing every day, and his accumulation of foundation is deeper than that of ordinary cultivators who have opened a hundred orifices.
high.
Sometimes when he sees the disciples around him, and even the soldiers under his command, breaking through the physical realm one after another, Ye Xuan will be shaken for a moment. Should he give up the pursuit of first-grade true qi and break through to the nourishing qi level?
But he immediately corrected his beliefs - he had already reached this point, wouldn't it be a pity to give up now?
So I continued to grit my teeth and persevere.
When the Earthly Fortress is completed, if the cultivators in the Black Snake Forbidden Magic Box are not snatched away during this operation, the process of refining the external incarnation will be accelerated.
Once the external incarnation is completed, he will begin his plan to lurk in the Huangquan Taoist Sect and steal the true scriptures.
The night ended with Ye Xuan's dedicated practice.
When he was practicing, he would continuously release Qianyuan's pure light, shining everywhere, so when he opened his eyes at dawn, the pile of alien bones placed around him had been completely transformed into jade bones.
At dawn, he lit up the stove fire and cooked a pot of porridge and rice.
Then he sat in the yard, polishing jade bones and carving talismans.
At this time, Fat Tiger and Biaozi had been awake for a long time. They went out to practice themselves, and they returned after a short time.
Biaozi's strength has improved very rapidly in recent times, and Fathu has not fallen far behind.
Although it often follows Ye Xuan and does not have much free time to practice, there are many benefits to following the master closely. One of them is that as long as Ye Xuan harvests the true energy, he must feed it one or two times to let it improve itself.
.
At this point, Fat Tiger's two natures of earth and fire have been officially blended. While his combat power is comparable to that of an early Gang practitioner, he can also use earth escape and fire escape at any time.
Its escape method is different from the escape method brought by the Escape Light Treasure. It is several times faster than ordinary escape methods and can be comparable to the speed of a seventh-grade flying sword.
Fat Tiger walked into the courtyard and walked up to Ye Xuan. He purred twice to say hello to his master. A wisp of true energy came out of his mouth and fell into Ye Xuan's Dragon Bird Seal.
When he was young, the fat tiger loved to rub his head against Ye Xuan's trouser legs to show intimacy. Now it is as big as a buffalo, and could knock Ye Xuan down with just a little force, so it has changed to this 'elegant' greeting
