Just as Xiao Pan Yan was hitting the ban hard, somewhere deep under Demon Spirit Island, a middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes.
This man was wearing a red robe, with a faint black light glowing on his body. He was sitting cross-legged next to a purple-black pool of water. He was none other than Tian Renjie of the Scarlet Refining Sect.
A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he raised his head and looked at the restriction covering the cave above his head, and said to himself: "The restriction circle here and the magic pool are connected into one."
"There seemed to be some strange vibrations in this level of restriction just now. If I hadn't been practicing beside the magic pond for so many years, I wouldn't have been able to detect it."
"The restriction above the Demon Cave is completely different from other places. Even the magic disk in my hand cannot break it."
Tian Renjie touched his chin with one hand, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"I almost forgot that there is such a strong demonic energy here. According to the methods of those ancient monks, there must be strong spiritual energy and demonic energy to suppress it above."
"Otherwise, the pure demonic energy in the demonic pool will not slowly decrease over time. It is obviously tempered by the magic circle above."
"Did the restriction above hit something just now?"
Tian Renjie lowered his head and pondered for a while, then frowned and said, "I'm on the verge of breaking through the bottleneck recently, and it's hard to go out. I'll send some disciples back to check it out. If my prediction is correct, there should be a sea of chaos above."
"Maybe the chaos there was caused by those monks suppressing the demonic energy."
Soon, this cave filled with pure demonic energy fell into silence again.
…
Another year later, Yaoling Island has become full of life, and the sounds of birds and insects can be heard on the previously lifeless mountain peaks.
On several peaks in the center, there are several mountain streams flowing down. There are many fish jumping happily in the mountain streams. These mountain streams finally converge into several quite wide rivers and flow into a lake in the outer area.
There are many beasts drinking water on the edge of the lake. Because there is abundant spiritual energy here, even ordinary beasts look full of spirituality.
On this day, a white light suddenly appeared on the spirit platform of Demon Spirit Island, and four figures appeared on it.
There are three men and one woman, and the most eye-catching one is a handsome young man in the head.
Secondly, there was a beautiful woman beside him who was dressed in white, exuding a faint cold air, and whose face was somewhat similar to that of a heroic young man.
It was Zhao Qingtian and Zhao Xueer, the brother and sister, and the two people behind them were naturally Huang Xiaoyun and Yu Xuan.
"Hey, the formation here has been changed." Zhao Qingtian looked at the formation covering the Spirit Advent Platform and said in surprise.
"Well, it's safer this way."
"More than four years have passed, and I don't know if Master has made a breakthrough or not." Zhao Qingtian raised his hand and threw out a talisman and said.
"Calculating, the time should be about the same. It takes three years for a traditional cultivator to become an immortal, or even a little shorter. The master should be about the same." Huang Xiaoyun on the side said, smacking his lips.
Huang Xiaoyun continued: "If Master makes a breakthrough, then we have a great chance of entering the bone treasure stage. After all, under the guidance of Master, the founder, the probability of advancement is very high."
Zhao Qingtian sighed and said with some worry: "Xiaoyun, we have to cultivate to the realm of Body Tempering Dzogchen."
"Master asked us to collect a large amount of poisons. I know that the time-consuming training of the viscera-burning stage is terrible. Let's let master study these poisons first."
As the first disciple to practice with Lu Kun, Zhao Qingtian knew the purpose of Lu Kun sending them out after careful consideration, so under his coordination, they stayed in Qi, a country where evil was rampant, for four years.
In the past four years, I have traveled almost all over Qi State and collected countless poisons. Of course, I have encountered more battles in the process. After all, in Qi State, killing people and seizing treasures is commonplace.
Fortunately, several of them had been pretending to be early-stage foundation-building monks, and they encountered the strongest opponents, which were several late-stage foundation-building demonic cultivators. With their full strength and the sneak attack of Xiaoyun's magic gold body, they were all in danger.
Zhao Qingtian and the others waited for about a quarter of an hour when a honest voice came from outside.
"Senior brothers, you are back. Junior brother, please open the restriction now."
After saying that, the barrier outside the spiritual platform slowly opened, revealing Pan Yan, a strong man with a happy face.
"Haha, I haven't seen Xiao Yanzi for a long time, why have I grown so strong again?"
"Tsk tsk, it's better to stay at home. It's not like the rest of us who have lost weight."
Pan Yan's expression was stagnant, and he looked at the four senior brothers and sisters who had stronger physical auras speechlessly, and muttered: "Junior brother, I have been exhausted these past few years."
"Hey, I can actually make Xiaoyanzi say that he is tired. Come and talk to the senior brothers."
While Pan Yan released the flying magic weapon, he muttered: "It's not Master Zhu yet..."
Then several people's weapons flew towards the central area. Zhao Qingtian and the others listened to Pan Yan's description, and then observed the changes in Demon Spirit Island. After understanding the reason for Pan Yan's complaint, they all laughed.
Just when they were about to enter the Eight Spirit Valley, the spiritual energy in the central area of Demon Spirit Island suddenly fluctuated violently, and the surrounding spiritual energy rushed to one place one after another, forming a spiritual energy vortex.
Zhao Qingtian and others were even made to fly unsteadily by the surging spiritual energy, but when they saw such a vision, they became excited.
"The celestial phenomenon of forming pills and the location of the spiritual energy vortex is Master's cave. Haha, Master succeeded."
"It's definitely true. This kind of power is even more powerful than when the two martial uncles advanced."
"Master's direction is correct!"
At the same time, three figures shot out from other caves in the Eight Spirit Valley. They were Zhu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiao and Qin Yushu. The wind attribute skills practiced by Qin Yushu were the same as Nie Wufeng's back then.
Able to fly in the air.
These three people also looked very excited.
"Four years later, junior brother finally succeeded."
"With my junior brother's combat power in the Core Formation stage before, I'm afraid he will have the strength in the later stage of Core Formation after breaking through."
"Haha, in this way, we will have our own high-end combat power."
The aura phenomenon lasted for half a day and slowly dissipated. Lu Kun looked at his body with a calm expression, and then he burst out laughing, his voice was so deafening that the cave was shaking a little.
"Haha, it worked. My deduction is correct. If this continues, I can definitely refine the bones into magic weapons."
At this time, Lu Kun had great power in his hands. All the magic power in his muscles, internal organs and blood disappeared, and it all gathered in his bones.
If you look through its body, you will find that all the bones in its body are emitting a faint purple light, with heart-stopping fluctuations flowing through it, like a treasure.
Lu Kun's mind moved, and a powerful wave of mana emanated from his bones. This was a completely different aura from the foundation-building stage.
As he increased his magic power, his whole person exuded the powerful aura unique to monks in the early stages of pill formation.
