"Two sisters, what is that huge black shadow? Why is it so high? It seems to reach the sky? Is it a mountain?" Jiang Xiaoyan saw that the huge black shadow was getting closer and closer, and she couldn't help feeling a little scared and timid.
I asked timidly.
"Little sister, you don't know something now. That huge black shadow is not a mountain, but a big tree. This big tree is called Qingyan Wood. It grew in the barbaric era and is considered an ancient spiritual tree. It has the thickest body.
The diameter of the place is several hundred feet, and although it is not as high as the sky, it is still as high as the clouds."
Hua Xiaoyue said "tsk tsk" on the side, and then couldn't help but raise her head and look at the top of the black shadow. She saw colorful clouds and mist floating above, just like a fairyland in heaven, and it was impossible to see what was on it.
"Little sister, do you know what's in the clouds at the top?" Hua Xiaoyue smiled mysteriously, "Our palace master lives up there, and the palace of Lingyue Palace is located up there."
"Sister, are you saying there are people living in the clouds above? Is your palace master a god in the sky?"
"Although she is not a fairy, she is better than a fairy. If you see our palace mistress, you will definitely be impressed by her fairy-like temperament." Lian Ling'er had an envious look on her face, which probably means she admires their palace mistress very much.
While they were talking, Lian Ling'er and Hua Xiaoyue had already arrived at the feet of the Qingyan Wood. The roots of the Qingyan Wood were very thick, like the foothills of a large mountain, with a diameter of about several hundred feet.
Lian Ling'er and Hua Xiaoyue stood here. Compared with their huge bodies, their figures were simply insignificant.
Although the Qingyan Wood looks like a big mountain, if you look closely, you can clearly see that the body is covered with the original mottled marks of the tree. They are the marks of countless years of growth, which are completely different from the marks on the stone.
Moreover, there are huge roots at the bottom that are half protruding outside and half rooted in the soil, undulating like a giant dragon meandering in the clouds and mist.
Drilling through the bulge of the giant root, you can see that starting from the bottom, a steep ladder has been carved out like a miraculous work. The ladder is very narrow, straight up, and you can't forget the end at a glance. It probably leads directly to Lingyue Palace in the clouds.
On both sides of the ladder, there are branches of various thicknesses hanging upside down, with palm-sized leaves clustered in clusters, showing a bright green color.
If an ordinary person goes up such a steep and narrow ladder, they will be completely frightened to the point where their feet become weak and dizzy. They may even slip under their feet and fall down and fall to pieces. But as disciples of Lingyue Palace, if you go up this ladder,
Totally a piece of cake.
Because they relied on their light bodies, they hardly climbed up step by step, but half climbed and half flew. I saw Lian Ling'er and Hua Xiaoyue taking a breath of spiritual energy, floating up, like two beautiful skylarks, almost
This vertical step has already reached a height of one hundred feet.
There was also a faint "whirring" sound coming from beneath me, along with the cooing cries of tired female disciples. Black shadows kept coming one after another. It must be that other female disciples were also climbing up the Qingyan tree to deliver tasks on top.
Flying like this, they gradually reached a height of several hundred feet. The night wind blew slowly, causing the hair and gauze clothes of Lian Ling'er and Hua Xiaoyue to flutter, like fairies in the wind. There seemed to be clouds floating around them,
The mist is steaming, and water drops are already dripping from the broad green leaves.
Looking from a distance, a bright moon hangs in the sky, unusually bright, like a round and smooth jade. Under the bright moon, the forest sea is vast, and the night wind blows, undulating and rolling thousands of miles away.
There was a vague light above, and someone's voice came over. It sounded like a lot of people were gathering.
Soon, a large platform appeared in the clouds and mist. This platform was hundreds of feet in diameter. It was actually cut directly into Qingyanmu's huge body.
Judging from the height, it should be in the middle of Qingyanmu's entire torso.
However, the ladder did not stop here. It climbed up from the left side of the platform towards the top of the clouds. It should lead directly to the highest point of Qingyanmu, Lingyue Palace.
On the tree wall directly in front of the platform, three characters are written with joy: Guancang Terrace. The three characters are like dragons and phoenixes, giving people a sense of freedom and ease. Below the three characters, which is the high platform in front of the platform, are arranged
There are five carved thrones made of crystal jade.
The jade stones used for these five thrones weigh several thousand kilograms in total. It is not known how they were moved up to such a high place.
On the five jade thrones, the middle one is empty, and there are only four seats on the left and right. These four people are all beautiful women with extraordinary talents. Their exact ages are not known, but they look like they are in their twenties.
A young woman of many years of age.
The four of them each have their own styles, and their expressions are all focused on the many female disciples on the platform. These female disciples are all stunningly beautiful, and they are lining up in an orderly manner and walking towards an eight-petal fairy orchid in front of them.
The eight-petal fairy orchid is very large and blooms towards the night sky. It exudes a strange brilliance, and there is a faintly powerful spiritual energy waving in the stamens.
The female disciples who lined up and stepped forward took out three inner elixirs of different shapes, sizes and colors from their silk bags and carefully placed them among the orchids.
Looking from a distance, you can vaguely see that there are already a lot of inner elixirs in the orchids, probably hundreds of them. From this, it seems that the new disciples who have been recruited this time to go out to practice have achieved quite good results.
Standing next to the orchid was a tall, light and beautiful female disciple. The female disciple was holding a small bag with green light all over her body. The shape of the small bag was like a budding flower.
Whenever a new female disciple came over and put the three inner elixirs into the orchid, she would pat the green bag with her slender hands, and green light would float out from the mouth of the bag. Enveloped by the green light, something would appear.
A pill filled with spiritual energy flew into the hands of the new female disciple.
The green bag is very small, and it seems to contain at most a hundred pills, but round pills are flying out of it continuously. Counting the whole process, there are probably hundreds of pills flying out of it.
.
If hundreds of pills were placed in one place, they would be as large as a small pile. I don’t know how the little green bag could fit them all in. I guess the little green bag must have a very wonderful miraculous effect of storing objects.
Often at this time, the expressions of new female disciples are extremely happy and excited, and they look at the elixir in their hands with bright eyes.
You must know that this green elixir that gathers spiritual energy is called Qianling Dan. It is refined from thousands of elixirs and sacred herbs. After swallowing it, it can improve your own spiritual power level and play a role in spiritual cultivation.
Get twice the result with half the effort.
As the basic elixir of Lingyue Palace, it is particularly helpful for female disciples who are transitioning to second-level, third-level, and fourth-level spiritual powers.
Refining Thousand Spirit Pills is very difficult and requires a large amount of spiritual herbs and elixirs, so every year Lingyue Palace limits the number of refining pills.
There should be thousands of disciples of different levels in the Lingyue Palace sect, and the number of female disciples admitted every three years is at least six to seven hundred. In contrast, based on the number of elixirs and herbs used in alchemy, the annual limit
Under six hundred.
Of course, even if there were sufficient quantities of spiritual herbs and elixirs back then, they could not be blindly collected and refined. After all, spiritual herbs and elixirs grow very slowly, taking as little as two or three years to mature and as long as decades before they can be harvested. If there are any leftovers this year,
The magical herbs and elixirs you placed can be replenished until next year to continue refining elixirs.
