Chapter 1007: Jade Peak Hidden Mysterious Meaning
Chao Ming had only been lying there for about ten minutes when another black snake came up and was also grabbed and eaten by it.
After eating two snakes in succession, a warm current surged in the body.
This snake's body seemed to contain very rich energy, which made its alienated tissue feel like it was soaking in a hot spring. It felt like it didn't want to move, but it became more energetic.
It did not return to the nest it had chosen before, but simply waited here. After that, these black snakes kept appearing, sometimes one, sometimes two or three together, and they would cooperate with each other to attack it.
In the past, Chen Chuan had been consciously training its alienated organization and combat capabilities. In addition, it was also very smart, so unlike some creatures that simply relied on their physical strength and instincts, it could use some simple tactics and techniques, and it had a methodical way of advancing and retreating, which always prevented the black snake from getting past it.
In the next half day, it ate no less than forty fish. At first, it came one after another, but later it seemed to realize the danger and gradually reduced its number. After nightfall, it simply disappeared.
Chao Ming still did not leave, but remained vigilant and guarded here to prevent these things from taking advantage of the opportunity to enter and affect Chen Chuan's practice.
Inside the rift, Chen Chuan wanted to see how long the rift could last, so he continued to practice.
He entered this place around three in the afternoon, and by dawn, the cracks began to show signs of shrinking.
This can last at least seventeen hours in one go, which is a significant improvement compared to before.
In fact, he felt that he could continue, and there would be no problem continuing for another ten or twenty minutes.
However, as his practice gradually deepened, he was no longer simply fighting for time to practice.
A certain amount of practice time must be maintained, but on this side of the rift, absorbing energy will have an additional mental burden. Although the second me can withstand the invasion, as long as he exists there, the world on the opposite side will inevitably put a certain amount of mental oppression on him.
Therefore, mental relaxation is a must. He has gradually come to understand this principle during his recent practice.
Training is important, but so is nourishment. A well-adjusted mind can lead to greater efficiency. Moreover, after absorbing enough energy, the growth of alienated tissues also requires a certain amount of sedimentation, and this becomes more true the higher you go.
At this moment, he moved his mind, and the entire spirit image dissipated into balls of mist. He walked out of the crack, swung his sword, and closed the entire crack. Then he checked the secret instruments around him.
This was somewhat surprising, because in the fusion zone, especially at night deep in the fusion zone, the erosion was quite serious.
This time he did not use the pivot stone of Protector You, but relied purely on high-level ritual materials to resist, so the erosion should have been very serious and could only last for one night. However, this time the entire secret ceremony did not suffer much damage.
He thought to himself, if this situation occurred, then there was only one possibility...
He turned his eyes and looked at the other corner of the cave, where he saw Chao Ming lying there, chirping at him.
As soon as he saw Chao Ming's bloated belly, he knew he had eaten a lot and raised his eyebrows.
Chao Ming would not eat anything randomly. He would only eat something that he judged was beneficial to him. It seemed that something happened here while he was practicing.
He walked to the edge of the cave, and Chao Ming moved his claws away, revealing a black snake underneath that had been pecked into pieces by it.
Chen Chuan took a look and saw that the thing was about three feet long and pitch black. If it was hidden in a dark place, it would not be visible at all.
It should have come up from the bottom of the cave. There is indeed something special down there.
He glanced towards the suitcase and saw that one of the modified creatures he had released had returned. It was shaped like a beetle, its limbs and wings folded, and it lay quietly there.
So he walked over, picked up the thing, and placed it on the special boundary certificate he brought this time. The modified creature immediately wrapped its limbs tightly around the boundary certificate.
After a while, a scene appeared in the light curtain in front of his world. This was the scene that the transformed creature had seen before.
The scene followed the creature's perspective all the way down, and the speed was actually not slow, but because it would stop in each cave, it would take too much time to watch the whole thing, so he simply clicked on the Nether Pass and increased the speed. The speed on the screen suddenly increased, but this did not affect his viewing.
Before long, his vision dropped to the bottom of the pit. He looked at the distance on the light screen and estimated that he had gone down about seven or eight hundred meters.
This peak is at most this high, so at this moment we have not only reached the bottom of the peak, but also deep underground.
As the modified creatures explored, a hole parallel to the ground appeared in front of them. They continued to go deeper, but when they got there, the same black snake appeared and began to attack and prey on these modified creatures.
He sent out a total of fifteen of these creatures, but in the end only this one returned, and the rest were eaten along the way.
Despite this, this last one faithfully completed the task, and he also saw something.
Just on the walls of the caves, there are some brightly colored painted patterns. Judging from the colors, they have some characteristics from before the Middle Ages, and you can vaguely see star tracks on them. These are undoubtedly the patterns of Tantric rituals.
It seems that the ancestors of the Xuanjiao who came here must have made some arrangements here.
He thought about it but did not plan to go down and investigate in depth. No matter what the arrangement was, as long as it did not affect him, it would be fine. At present, it did not seem to be a hindrance to him. Even if he wanted to see it, he would have to wait until he achieved the realm of Changshengguan.
He asked Chao Ming to continue guarding here, while he walked out of the cave, washed up briefly beside the hot spring waterfall, and then went out to hunt for food.
In just ten minutes, he brought back a sturdy mountain bull. There were actually some relatively powerful creatures from the fusion land around here, but they posed no threat to him. Instead, it made it easier for him to obtain food.
Generally, you only need to eat the back loin of Alpine cattle. All the nutritional essence is in it. Although it doesn’t have any special features, it is large in quantity and can be roasted and eaten, which is enough for him.
He casually started a fire and slowly roasted the tenderloin over it. The fat dripped into the flames, making a slight sizzling sound, and the aroma gradually spread.
As he savored the food carefully, he felt the aroma and flavor of the barbecue, and his tense spirit gradually relaxed with this simple delicacy.
Chao Ming had no appetite this time and just lay there watching. It was obvious that he had eaten too much before.
Chen Chuan ate the main part of the delicious essence and threw the rest outside. In just a moment, small insects came out from under the soil. Soon the whole cow was eaten clean, and within a few minutes, white, slender, jade-like flowers grew out.
He took a look and recognized it as Polygonatum, a plant often planted in front of temples of the Xuanjiao sect. Seeing this thing meant that this area might have been occupied by people from the Xuanjiao sect for a long time, which was a major feature. This confirmed his previous guess.
After eating, he sat on the stone bench and ordered the certificate for the lower world. This time when he came out, there were indeed a lot of things stored in this special certificate, which he could read slowly.
At night, he checked the secret ritual and found no problem, so he continued to practice. He repeated this process, and half a month passed in a flash.
During this period, in addition to going out every day to get some food to reward himself, he practiced hard in the morning and evening. Because he could clearly see his own progress, he did not feel bored at all. Watching his own strength grow stronger little by little was very addictive.
Moreover, because he threw away the leftover food every day, after more than ten days, the outside was actually covered with Polygonatum flowers. When the wind blew, the flowers fluttered in the wind, which was very beautiful and accompanied by a fresh fragrance.
On this day, after returning from hunting, Chen Chuan did not enter the cave again. He was roasting an unknown pheasant. At this time, he looked out and saw many mountain springs and waterfalls around, most of which flowed into a winding river. Looking at the Jade Dragon circling around, the scenery was magnificent and hidden in the mystery. No wonder the predecessors of the Xuanjiao chose to stay here. It was indeed a good vision.
He wondered if there was a road from Central City that led directly here.
However, this is generally not possible, unless...
He pondered for a moment, shook his head, and after finishing his meal, he cleaned up, stood up, and walked into the cave. However, he paused as he saw a person appear on the stone bed.
This person was dressed in Xuanjiao clothes and holding a whisk in his hand, dressed like a Xuanist. His eyes moved and looked at the second me, but there was no sign of emptiness on his eyes.
The mystic saw him, looked him over for a few seconds, then suddenly shook his head and said, "No, no, you're practicing wrong, you're practicing wrong."
Chen Chuan looked at him and asked, "What did you do wrong?"
The mystic said, "You must have been practicing the secret manual of my Xuan Sect, 'Taibai Jingguan'. When you reach a deep level of this method, looking up and down at the golden sky and connecting to the Jade Bridge are not difficult. However, the method you followed later is not the same as the previous one, which is inconsistent with the previous one."
Chen Chuan said: "There is nothing wrong with this method."
The mystic nodded and said, "That's correct, but it may not be suitable for you. With your talent, you should really use my supreme secret book. Otherwise, it would be a waste of your precious body."
Chen Chuanlue changed his mind, smiled, and ignored him. He walked aside, picked up his pass, and prepared to take a rest.
The Xuanshi smiled at him. "I know you don't believe me, but it's okay. Let me tell you something. At the foot of this mountain, there's a pool of liquid that my sect built. The water rising from it can help you improve your gong by three points." As he spoke, he raised three fingers. "You might as well do as I say and give it a try, and you'll see."
Having said that, without waiting for Chen Chuan to ask, he explained a few words, then jumped off the stone bed, walked out leisurely, and was out of the cave in a moment.
Chen Chuan turned around to look again and found that there was no one outside.
