The night is dark and the mountain wind is howling.
Ji Tianxing was escorted by the black-robed deacon to the back mountain and entered a dark cave.
The cave extends obliquely to the ground, is deep and tortuous, and every thirty meters there is a stone lamp on the cave walls on both sides.
The stone lamp is an ancient device that provides light through the formation, but the light is a bit weak.
The dim light was difficult to illuminate the cave, and Ji Tianxing could not clearly see what was going on inside the cave.
Half an hour later, the black-robed deacon escorted him into the deepest part of the cave.
In front of you is a dark cliff, with layers of brown rocks exposed under the cliff.
There is a dark and cold stone room on the left side of the cliff, and Ji Tianxing was imprisoned in this stone room.
Before leaving, the black-robed deacon closed the heavy black iron door and locked it with a huge chain.
"Ji Tianxing! You should honestly reflect on your mistakes in the Batu Caves, and don't even think about escaping!"
"If you dare to abscond in fear of crime, you will be executed on the spot after being caught by this sect!"
After saying these two words, the black-robed deacon turned and left, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Ji Tianxing stood in the cold stone room, holding the iron bars on the black iron door with both hands, and shouted unwillingly: "Master Deacon, I have been wronged!"
"As long as you wake up Ji Ke, the truth will be revealed!"
However, the black-robed deacon drifted away and ignored him at all.
After a long time, the Batu Cave fell into dead silence, and Ji Tianxing loosened his hands dejectedly and sat on the stone bench in despair.
There were only two things in the dark and cold stone room.
There is an ancient stone lamp on the wall and a rough stone bench in the corner.
Apart from that, there is nothing.
The ground was covered with dust, and if you stepped on it, you would be left with footprints. It was not known how long it had been since anyone had been locked in this stone room.
Ji Tianxing didn't know how long he would be detained here.
Maybe two or three days? Or two or three months?
The key to determining how long he will be detained is when Ji Ke wakes up.
But Ji Ke was stabbed by Ji Ling first, then knocked unconscious and pushed off the cliff.
She didn't die after falling off the cliff. It was God's blessing and she was extremely lucky.
It was hard for Ji Tianxing to imagine how serious her injuries were and when she would wake up.
Wait! He can only wait patiently.
This stone chamber is located deep underground.
Except for the faint light emitted by the stone lamp, he could never see the sky outside.
During his imprisonment, only darkness accompanied him.
Under the cliff not far from the stone chamber, there is an endless cold wind blowing, constantly pouring into the stone chamber.
Ji Tianxing only sat on the stone bench for half an hour before the biting cold wind blew him all over and shivered.
Darkness, coldness, loneliness and helplessness all surrounded him.
Boundless anger and murderous intent quietly rose in his heart again.
"Damn Ji Ling! You beast! You bastard!"
"When I see the light of day again, I will cut you into pieces and crush your bones into ashes!"
Ji Tianxing clenched his fists, his fingers crunched, and he roared at the top of his lungs.
For the first time in his life, he hated someone so much.
This was also the first time he had seen someone so despicable, sinister, and so heartless!
Even when he was betrayed and insulted by Ling Yunfei, the anger and murderous intent in his heart were not as strong as they are now!
Time passes quietly.
I don't know how much time passed, but Ji Tianxing was curled up on a stone bench in the corner, his face turned blue and his whole body stinging from the cold wind.
He knew he couldn't sit down any longer.
This cave is called Batu Cave, and it is specially used to detain disciples who violate the sect's rules. It naturally has a disciplinary effect.
The endless cold wind is his punishment!
"No! I have to find a way to resist the cold wind. If I sit down like this, my flesh and blood will be frozen to death, and my meridians will be necrotic..."
The only way Ji Tianxing could think of was to use his power to resist.
Fortunately, his true energy is very abundant. After the energy circulates throughout his body and spreads to his limbs and bones, the tingling sensation in his flesh and blood and meridians is much lessened.
This method really works.
After Ji Tianxing calmed down a little, he abandoned the distracting thoughts in his mind and sat cross-legged on the ground to practice his exercises.
He followed the third-level technique of the Way of the Sword Heart and mobilized the true energy in his body to flow through the nine main meridians, trying to temper all nine meridians into sword veins.
Six hours have passed, and his skill is slowly increasing.
His physical body also adapted to the cold wind that constantly poured into the stone chamber.
A whole day passed, and he felt hungry in his belly, making him restless.
He had to end his practice, opened the treasure bag, and looked for food in it.
Fortunately, the smelly old man did not take away the treasure bag when he seized Qian Yue and the Black Dragon Sword, and returned them to him afterwards.
He used to store a lot of food and fruits in his kit, all for the little ice fox Qianyue.
After eating some random fruits and food, his hunger was relieved and he started practicing again.
Before I knew it, five days had passed.
During these five days, the cave was always silent and in darkness.
No one has been here, except Ji Tianxing himself, he has never seen even a ghost.
He had been practicing day and night, and when he was hungry, he would look for some food in his bag.
Unfortunately, after five days of consumption, he finally finished the little food in the kit.
Hungry intolerable, Ji Tianxing could only find another way.
He remembered that there were still many elixirs stored in his treasure bag, so he took out the elixirs and drank them, using his energy to refine the elixirs to replenish his physical strength.
"Masters in the Tongxuan realm can live without grains. Even if they don't eat a grain of rice for ten and a half days, it won't have any impact."
"Although I am only at the sixth level of the True Yuan Realm, I rely on these pills to maintain my True Yuan, and I can also practice fasting in advance!"
The so-called bigu means that martial arts masters do not eat food and only rely on absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth to maintain their physical strength.
This can only be done by masters of the Tongxuan Realm.
The so-called Tongxuan is the realm of connecting with heaven and earth and communicating with the mysterious and the underworld!
Warriors who have reached this level can turn their powerful thoughts into spiritual consciousness, communicate with the vitality of heaven and earth, absorb vitality like water, and transform it into their own true essence.
As long as the true energy is abundant, Tongxuan realm warriors can go without food and drink and still possess great power.
Ji Tianxing never thought of deliberately practicing fasting. He only waited until he reached the realm of Tongxuan and let it take its course.
However, now that he was in a difficult situation, he had to rely on his firm will and endurance to forcibly practice inedia.
Before I knew it, another five days had passed.
During these five days, Ji Tianxing only relied on a few pills to maintain his true energy, endured hunger with strong perseverance, and even initially achieved fasting.
Moreover, he practiced hard in a stone chamber for ten days and successfully tempered the first main vein into a sword vein, which made him stronger.
Although he had achieved some success in practicing the Way of Sword Heart, he was not happy at all, and his heart was full of worries.
"It's been ten days, why hasn't anyone come to see me?"
"Is it possible that Keke has been in a coma and hasn't woken up yet?"
