Chapter 241 Opportunities in the Cave of the Dragon Formation Master

Some people, having seen towering mountains, gradually feel their own insignificance; others, having not experienced the vastness of the world, only feel their blood boiling like the sun.

The former is thoughtful and meticulous, while the latter is simple and brave.

The two are evenly matched.

Wang Yu belongs to the former category, but he is not lacking in the recklessness to take risks. The emotional touch seems to have awakened his original nature.

After a brief period of confusion, calm returned.

"So this is the true meaning of going out to gain experience: to touch oneself and gain enlightenment."

In an instant, Wang Yu underwent some indescribable change.

It was as if a high mountain that had long stood in the heart had been moved away, and through the Lesser Asura Killing Fist, a small part of the [Asura Killing Heart] was forged and became more and more pure.

The faint sound of Buddha chanting sutras and praying for blessings entered my ears.

That untouchable killing intent was now tinged with a golden light. He could feel that the upper limit of the killing intent he could control had surged, almost tripling in size.

"—Understand your own heart!"

This was a spiritual enlightenment, and I gained a lot. If in the past Wang Yu's attainments in the spiritual path had always been stuck on the edge of not quite entering, then this is a great achievement.

Now, he has truly stepped into the threshold of mental power, and the Asura Killing Heart can be perfectly forged. He has even gained a deeper understanding of the Prajna Heart Sutra.

It allows for greater control over tangible killing intent!

"Mental strength..."

In the poisonous jungle, Wang Yu, who was rushing along, suddenly stopped. Wisps of illusory yet real red light emerged from his fingertips. The true form of his mental energy should be milky white.

His behavior was influenced by the [Asura Killing Heart]. After all, the Lesser Asura Killing Fist is not only a supernatural power, but also a special supernatural power involving mental cultivation.

"With a murderous intent as its foundation, if one cultivates it to a high level, one may be able to decide life and death with a single word."

Thanks to the existence of the Killing Intent Slab, Wang Yu has been progressing very quickly in the Lesser Asura Killing Fist, after all, it is a mental trace left by a Nascent Soul Venerable when he vented his anger.

Even time has not diminished its value; its preciousness surpasses almost any other treasure Wang Yu possesses.

However, this killing fist is essentially based on the mysteries of combat. The mysteries of mental cultivation are all related to forging the [Asura Killing Heart].

The Heart Sutra, a secret scripture without rank, is the true path to cultivating mental strength. Without rank, it may be weak or it may be very strong.

Wang Yu felt that it was no weaker than a typical Nascent Soul inheritance.

Furthermore, it seems to help him develop greater wisdom. This feeling is hard to explain, but there is no doubt that persisting with it will definitely bring benefits.

After experiencing this unexpected ordeal, it's all for the best.

A few days later.

He had arrived at the "White Snake Depression" he had initially identified.

The Heavenly Demon Bone Forest is a vast mountain forest spanning Yunling Prefecture, Yeqiong Prefecture, and You Prefecture, covering an area of ​​immense size. Its core area is inhabited by mysterious Nascent Soul Poisonous Beasts.

It's almost impossible to cross horizontally; you can only walk diagonally.

The outer perimeter, inner perimeter, central area, and core area are roughly divided into four levels. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it becomes. In the central area, there is a chance of encountering a fourth-order poisonous beast, so he certainly wouldn't enter rashly.

Therefore, Wang Yu's entry from the north of Yunling and his advance towards the northwest were actually a gradual approach to the location of Yeqiong Prefecture.

After a period of travel, what came into view was a depression covered with dead leaves and fallen trees, with some areas filled with silt, forming a trap-like, man-eating swamp.

The damp environment caused a pool of stagnant water to accumulate here, and the foul-smelling toxic gases rising from the ground caused the pool to constantly bubble.

Upon reaching its limit, it exploded with a deafening roar, polluting the air.

In layman's terms: It stinks to high heaven!

Even Wang Yu couldn't help but frown at this environment. No wonder so few people came here. It was almost as bad as a cesspool, yet it was surprisingly suitable for seclusion.

Absolutely no one will disturb him. He recalled the vow he made in Black Mountain years ago and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

"Search the mountains for demons."

Without delay, Wang Yu directly used his divine sense to search. Since there were no signs of any ruins on the ground, the only possibility was underground.

This investigation has revealed something extraordinary!

From the surface to about five meters underground, there are countless white snakes. They are only one or two meters long, but their numbers are astonishing.

This depression, except for the swampy area, is almost entirely covered by these snakes. After passing through this snake wall and going down about a thousand meters, it becomes difficult to go any further.

If his divine sense extends into the air, it can reach a radius of up to five thousand meters. However, its effectiveness is greatly reduced when it penetrates into solid soil.

Just as he was pondering whether he could use the Purple Dragon Earth Travel Technique to pass through the snake layer and delve deeper underground to investigate the situation.

Not far from him, in a small swamp about three zhang in diameter, the mud boiled and quickly formed the image of a mud figure, looking at him from afar and saying.

"The Ruan family?"

"Um--"

Wang Yu quickly looked over, and while he was surprised, he immediately guessed the identity of the newcomer: "Are you a Dragon Formation Master?"

As he spoke, he took out the jade token given to him by the elder of the Ruan family, and the Dragon Formation Master indeed calmed down considerably.

"It seems you've come here for the same reason. Come down with me."

The mud figures scattered, and a whirlpool appeared in the center of the swamp, rapidly expanding and leaving a vertical channel deep into the ground in the very center, with mud and water constantly falling in.

Wang Yu, confident in his abilities, gripped the newly acquired Heavenly Thunder Talisman tightly in his palm and jumped directly down into the mud tunnel.

His consciousness remained vigilant, silently calculating the distance he was falling.

soon.

The result was also obtained the moment of landing: eight thousand meters!

The other party actually carved out an underground cavity so deep underground. I didn't sense the existence of the spiritual vein, but the concentration of spiritual energy was very high.

It should be gathered through array formations, which is sufficient to meet the daily cultivation needs of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The area above was transformed into stone by magic, and luminous stones dispelled the darkness. Stone slabs were laid on the ground, and stone tables, benches, and other items were not far away. The entire area reached 120 square meters.

It's like a room.

The master of this place, the array master, leisurely sized him up, his gaze containing no malice but a hint of suspicion.

"How did you obtain that token?"

Wang Yu turned his gaze back to Wang Yu.

Although this array master was a woman, she was unusually plain-looking and dressed in unremarkable clothes. There was also a sense of fatigue between her brows, like a working-class slave from a previous life.

Ordinary was his first impression.

It is important to know that cultivation not only makes one stronger, but each breakthrough in a major realm also repairs one's innate defects by advancing one's life level.

Unless influenced by cultivation techniques, no one is ugly.

Among male cultivators, many do not pay attention to their appearance, while almost all female cultivators pay great attention to their appearance, especially the female cultivators of the Joyful Union Sect, there are none who are ordinary.

In Chiyuan, female cultivators are either extremely ugly or extremely beautiful, with almost no middle ground. A Takigaki Master like this is truly rare.

“That token was a gift from an elder of the Ruan family. He said that it would allow you to help me, fellow Daoist, once.”

"Indeed, I am Long Yiran, a formation master. May I ask your name, fellow Daoist?"

"A rogue cultivator, Wang Yu."

For this interaction, he chose to use his real name, which was the mysterious array cultivator recorded in the Tingfeng Tower's intelligence, and it matched Long Yiran perfectly—an array cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Since Fellow Daoist Wang has found this place and met me, you must not have come here specifically to find me. Could it be that you have also come for the Snake Mansion here?"

Snake Mansion? Wang Yu frowned, immediately realizing he had come to the wrong place. This should be a cave left behind by a senior, a completely different kind of opportunity from the sect ruins.

Considering the other party's cultivation level, or perhaps they were looking for an opportunity to form their core, this thought piqued my interest.

Opportunities arising from cave dwellings.

They are divided into three types: ancient times, prehistoric times, and present times, with the number decreasing from the most numerous to the fewest. The ancient cave dwellings are the most numerous and the most genuine.

After conquering it, one can obtain a large number of magical inheritances, but the gains in terms of spiritual objects will be less, which is related to the atmosphere of the ancient immortal dynasty.

Ancient cave dwellings are neither too numerous nor too few, and they possess rich lineages of magical teachings. They also contain a large number of rare spiritual objects, including even extinct spiritual species. Among the three types of cave dwelling opportunities, they are the most valuable.

As for the current opportunities in the cave dwelling...

It's all tears when I talk about it. The cultivator who could leave behind a place with all sorts of restrictions, trials, and temptations of spiritual objects must be at least in the late stage of Core Formation.

These people can use the Golden Core to save their lives and can cultivate the lower branch of the Body Seizure Technique, the Spirit Seizure Technique!

so.

Nowadays, over 80% of the opportunities to enter a cave are traps, with a terrible reputation. Even if there is a ready-made cave, very few cultivators will dare to venture into it.

Over time, those with ulterior motives became even more skilled, decorating caves, underground palaces, hidden towers, and so on in the style of ancient times or even prehistoric times.

The decorative details, architectural style, and so on are all perfectly reproduced for you.

Hey, they're faking it, they're just trying to lure you in.

From now on, any opportunity involving a cave or grotto must be carefully discerned.

Back then, when Liu Jinxian encountered the remnant soul of a powerful being in the underground palace of Xuan Gu Mountain, she suspected that the underground palace might have been a forgery created by modern people.

However, this information was not communicated to Wang Yu.

He was actually unaware of this matter. Wang had obtained the fortuitous inheritance of the Taiyin Nether Eye and only suspected that it was a branch sect.

Just like the four prefectures under the command of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.

Let's get back to the main topic.

In response to Taki Yiran's question, Wang Yu replied.

“Takijinshi, to be honest with you.”

"I came to the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest for a fortuitous opportunity. It is the site of an ancient sect, and I need the assistance of an array master to locate it and complete my own inheritance."

"I see. I promise you."

Taki agreed lightly and continued speaking before Wang Yu could ask any questions.

"I can't get away from here for the time being."

"This Serpent Mansion is a cave dwelling left behind by an ancient array master, which is closely related to my lineage. Therefore, I can confirm that the cave dwelling is definitely real."

“I came here five or six years ago and have been trying to break the defensive formation of the cave. If you’re not in a hurry, you can wait for me for a few years, how about that?”

The communication between the two was so harmonious that it was unbelievable, unlike the Chi Yuan at all. However, after Wang Yu had mastered the basics of mental cultivation, he could vaguely sense that what the other party said was true.

This ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood has not been verified.

However, he still chooses to believe in the power of the mind, a power that is even more mysterious, and even just getting to the basics is not something an ordinary person can do.

"How about this..."
