Duan Lingtian, who was practicing in seclusion, opened his eyes at some point. He let out a long sigh and left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda after a thought.
Now, his cultivation level is only one step away from the late stage of the Middle Saint Realm!
However, just at this step, a 'bottleneck' appears. If you want to break through, you need to find a suitable opportunity.
"Lao Huo, have you used up those materials?"
At the same time, Duan Lingtian contacted Mr. Huo and asked.
"It's been used up a long time ago."
Huo Lao said: "However, with the materials you gave me last time, it is only a drop in the bucket to completely repair the fourth floor of Qibao Linglong Tower... Therefore, if you want to repair the fourth floor, you need to find more
Materials coming in.”
"Don't worry, there will be a lot of materials in the future."
Duan Lingtian responded, "I'll go get you the materials right now."
Now, nearly half a year has passed since his last retreat.
But inside the third floor of Qibao Exquisite Tower, two full years have passed.
In the past two years, Duan Lingtian not only consolidated his cultivation in the middle stage of the Middle Saint Realm, but also went a step further and was only one step away from the late stage of the Middle Saint Realm.
When he opened the door and walked out, Duan Lingtian found that there were still several people hiding in the dark watching him.
"People from the Zhao family still don't give up?"
Duan Lingtian frowned, then relaxed, ignored those people, and went directly to the main mansion to find Gu Li.
People from the Zhao family naturally followed closely.
"Damn it! He has been in seclusion for so long and finally got out, but he still doesn't want to leave."
Seeing that Duan Lingtian did not leave Xuankong Mansion after leaving seclusion, several Xuankong Mansion disciples from the Zhao family immediately cursed, as if Duan Lingtian had committed a crime by not leaving Xuankong Mansion.
However, the news of Duan Lingtian's release soon reached the ears of other Xuankong Mansion elders and disciples of the Zhao family.
For a time, the Zhao family, which was originally lifeless, was boiling with excitement. Everyone was gearing up, eager to show off their talents immediately.
Duan Lingtian naturally doesn't know all this.
Now, he has arrived at the place of cultivation of the Dharma Protector ‘Ancient Ci Yun’.
"Uncle Gu."
This time, Duan Lingtian saw Gu Ciyun.
"Xiaotian is here?"
Facing Duan Lingtian, Gu Ciyun smiled, but Duan Lingtian could clearly find that there was something different between Gu Ciyun's eyebrows.
"Uncle Gu, are you worried?"
Duan Lingtian asked in confusion.
When the ancient poet heard this, he sighed, but said nothing.
"Father, Junior Brother Ling Tian is not an outsider, so why not talk to him? Besides, the information about the "Yin-Eating Demon Technique" was provided by him."
At some point, Gu Li also came over and said bluntly.
Gu Ciyun nodded, "Tell Xiaotian."
As Gu Li opened his mouth, Duan Lingtian finally knew the reason why Gu Ciyun was so worried:
"The master of our Heavenly Palace rescued Xu Jing?"
"The reason why he rescued Xu Jing was to get the "Yin-Eating Demonic Skill" practiced by Xu Jing? Because "Yin-Eating Demonic Skill" belongs to the kind of demonic practice that is inhumane and unscrupulous. He was worried that he would not be able to survive after it was exposed.
You don’t want to practice Falun Dafa, so you choose to take risks?”
"He chose to take the risk to avenge the deputy leader of the Yinshan black market, 'Feng Buyi'?"
…
After knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It seems that Palace Master Zhu has never forgotten the incident half a year ago!"
Six months ago, Zhu Luqi was humiliated by Feng Buyi, the deputy leader of the Yinshan black market. He was not far away and could see clearly.
He could completely understand Zhu Luqi's mood at that time. He must have felt that life would be worse than death!
Therefore, Duan Lingtian was not surprised to learn that Zhu Luqi took the risk to practice the "Yin-Eating Demonic Skill" because of that incident.
"The master of Palace Master Zhu is the younger junior brother of our master... Therefore, Palace Master Zhu can be considered a member of my father's lineage. When I usually meet my father, he always calls me 'senior brother'."
Guli explained promptly.
Hearing this, Duan Lingtian suddenly realized that if this was the case, it would be understandable that Gu Ciyun looked worried.
"Palace Master Zhu is indeed a little confused... If he practices the "Yin-Eating Demonic Art", he will harm many people! By the way, Uncle Gu, you know what kind of dehumanizing method the "Yin-Eating Demonic Art" uses.
Did you practice in the same way?"
Speaking of what happened later, Duan Lingtian looked at the ancient Ci Yun.
"The "Yin-Eating Demon Technique" is said to be practiced by swallowing the essence and blood of young women, and the cultivation level progresses very quickly... And the young woman who was swallowed by the practitioner of "Yin-Eating Demon Technique",
They will all turn into mummies in the end."
Gu Ciyun flashed a serious cold light and said sternly: "If Zhu Luqi really practices the "Yin-Eating Demonic Skill", I will definitely kill him personally next time we meet!"
"Swallow the essence and blood? Suck it into a mummy?"
Although he had long realized that the practice method of "Yin-Eating Demonic Art" must be very vicious, when he found out in what way it was practiced, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and his face darkened at the same time.
"What a vicious demonic technique!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed coldly, and he felt that the demon cultivators who practiced the "Yin-Eating Demonic Art" were simply inferior to animals!
"So... if Xu Jing is rescued by him, he will most likely recover?"
While murmuring, Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed past.
Xu Jing, the young master of Chongxiao Mansion, was the person he wanted to kill quickly.
I thought Xu Jing would die this time, but unexpectedly, he was rescued by Zhu Luqi.
"Before Palace Master Zhu left, he left a message saying that he would kill Xu Jing after obtaining the "Yin-Eating Demonic Skill"."
Gu Li said: "Although Palace Master Zhu's actions are unacceptable, it can be seen from the words he left behind that he was actually forced to have no choice but to betray Xuankong Mansion."
"As long as he practices the "Yin-Eating Demonic Art", he will die!"
Gu Ciyun said sharply.
Kill Xu Jing?
After hearing Gu Li's words, Duan Lingtian was noncommittal.
Since that Xu Jing had the means to instigate Zhu Luqi to rescue him, he must have had backup plans and would not easily pass on all the "Yin-Eating Demonic Skills" to Zhu Luqi.
Therefore, he did not think Zhu Luqi could kill Xu Jing.
It's not that Zhu Luqi is not strong enough to kill Xu Jing, but because Xu Jing will use the "Yin-Devouring Demonic Skill" as a demonic skill to make Zhu Luqi intolerable in various ways and not dare to kill him easily.
"Xu Jing... next time we meet, I will kill you!"
While Duan Lingtian was muttering to himself, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, choosing someone to devour.
Taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian recovered his mind and immediately looked at Gu Li, "Senior Brother Gu Li, how many materials have I collected now?"
"All the materials you need are inside."
Gu Li took out a Na ring and handed it into Duan Lingtian's hand.
After Duan Lingtian recognized Najie as his master, he looked inside and was immediately shocked.
The materials collected in Najie are much more than the materials collected last time, more than ten times more.
Although Duan Lingtian was surprised by this, he was not surprised.
Because he had been in seclusion for nearly half a year this time, it was not difficult to find these materials with the power of Xuankong Mansion.
However, even so, Duan Lingtian is still very grateful to the Gu family and his son, and to the master of Xuankong Palace.
With the materials in hand, Duan Lingtian said hello to the Gu family and his son, then left and returned to his residence.
After coming back, he immediately sent the materials into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Tower and delivered them to Huo Lao, "Huo Lao, the materials in this Na Ring are more than ten times as much as the last materials... but
, but the two rarest materials have not been found yet. Could it be that those two materials are not available here?"
After talking about it, Duan Lingtian looked worried and smiled bitterly.
"uncertain."
Old Huo's voice came, "Don't forget, the place you are now is just the 'lower domain' of the Dao Martial Holy Land... The 'upper domain' of the Dao Martial Holy Land, if I guessed correctly, should be a
It is an independent 'pseudo-plane'. Although it is a pseudo-plane, the environment inside is definitely much better than the lower realm, and more good things will definitely appear."
"Those two kinds of materials are not available in the Lower Domain, but it does not mean that they are not available in the Upper Domain."
Huo Lao finished speaking in one breath.
"Pseudo plane?"
Duan Lingtian held on to this 'word' and asked Mr. Huo that this was the first time he had heard of any 'pseudo plane' in this world.
"Pseudo plane refers to a plane that is not a plane. I can't describe it specifically. You can understand it this way: a pseudo plane is an independent plane formed by the turbulence of space... Pseudo plane
In the plane, the environment is generally excellent. The 'environment' mentioned here is not just the cultivation environment, but also various living environments."
Huo Lao said: "The 'upper domain' of your Dao Martial Holy Land, if I guessed correctly, should be the 'pseudo plane' that appeared later... and after that pseudo plane appeared, the backbone of your Dao Martial Holy Land
, they all went there. However, because the resources there were limited, the weaker forces and people in Daowu Holy Land were also left behind."
"Then, the Daowu Holy Land 'Lower Domain' was born."
Listening to Mr. Huo's tone when he said these words, it was as if he had experienced it himself.
Duan Lingtian nodded as if he understood, but actually he still didn't understand.
What is space turbulence?
Why can its restlessness form an independent plane?
As for what the 'plane' is, he heard it mentioned by Mr. Huo before and knew that it was the world behind a space barrier.
Just like the earth where he lived in his previous life, it was a planet in the secular plane.
The world he is in now is also a planet in the secular plane, and there are probably thousands of different planets in this secular plane.
"I don't know if the earth is also in this secular plane."
Even Duan Lingtian didn't know why, he suddenly thought of this question.
