Chapter 1011: Support and Choose
When Chen Chuan saw the mysterious man leave, he knew in his heart that this person would not show up at least during the next period of his cultivation.
At this time, he pondered for a moment, reached into his pocket, and took out the pill left by the Wuwei Xuanshi. This thing was very light, and looked like condensed light smoke. But at this moment, it seemed to be a little less than before.
Seeing this situation, he had already made a judgment in his mind that the vision he saw this time should be related to the "Wuwei Xuanshi".
This person had once said to him, "I'll give you a gift from him," and in the end, he left this pill. At first, he didn't know what it was for, but now it seemed to be able to illuminate the spiritual realm left by the Xuanjiao people, making those who passed by appear and converse with them.
However, he couldn't tell at the moment whether the one who appeared this time was the Xuanshi who lived here, or simply the Wuwei Xuanshi himself who had gathered here through the shadow of others.
Judging from the other party's last words and what he had experienced here, he was more inclined to the latter possibility. Furthermore, he was not a member of the Xuan Sect, so there was no need for other Xuan Sect masters to talk to him so much.
At this moment, he thought again, since this pill has these effects, can it be used when he arrives at the corresponding place in the future, such as the place where the Xuanjiao people stay?
If this is the case, if I have free time in the future, I might want to visit some of the temples of Xuanjiao that remain in various places.
After thinking about this, he put the pill back and walked into the cave. Instead of practicing immediately, he walked towards the cave below.
The mystic just now mentioned what was hidden down there, and he planned to go and take a look first.
He walked all the way down and passed the jade pool he had visited last time. When he reached the back end, he found that the road split into two. He walked to the left first. After about a hundred steps, an empty hall appeared in front of him. In the middle stood a jade pillar carved with various gods and ghosts. The pillar was thick, the carvings were rough, and it was unique.
The pillar was only half a man's height, and looked as if it had been cut from a larger pillar. At the very top sat a thin, green bowl, which seemed to contain a thin layer of liquid.
He raised his head and looked up, and saw a coiled snake dragon carved on the top wall, with its head facing downwards. At that moment, a drop of jade liquid was flowing down from its long snout, and after dripping into the bowl, there was a ding-dong sound, and after a while, another drop fell.
Normally, the bowl should be full of liquid in a short while, but there always seems to be only a little bit at the bottom.
According to the Xuanshi, this is a bowl of elixir that has been stored for many years. It is made by collecting the essence of the mountains and rivers here. One of the main purposes of the people of the Xuanjiao who arrived here was for this thing. As long as they drink this water, they can stimulate their potential and regulate their strange meridians.
He walked to the front and found an earring behind the jade pillar, on which was a jade plate with a jade chain. He reached out and picked it up to have a look. On it was a vertical ancient seal script from the old times, which read "I will teach the younger generation that they can drink."
After looking at it, he thought for a moment, and instead of moving, he left here and walked towards the cave opposite.
When he got there, he saw clay jars placed along the walls of the cave, so densely packed that they almost filled the entire place. Some of them had obviously been opened.
He took a closer look and found that what was placed in it was the same gelatin that he had seen before. If the remaining jars were all filled with this kind of stuff, then there would be quite a lot of it.
Looking around, he made another discovery. There was a niche near the right corner of the wall. Inside was a jade stake frame, on which was supported a black cloak.
After noticing it, he walked over to take a look and found that there were secret patterns on the clothes, and there were also detailed text annotations, which vaguely matched the secret patterns he had seen along the way.
When he looked deeper, he found that this thing seemed to... depict the entire secret arrangement around it?
He stared at it. If he understood these images and texts, he could theoretically replicate the secret ritual around him, which would be quite valuable. He wasn't completely unfamiliar with rituals, but after reading it, he still felt that its complexity far exceeded his understanding. However, he made a discovery while watching, thinking to himself, "So it can be done this way..."
Judging from this secret ritual, as long as there is enough condensed fat to start the ceremony, and then use this black cloak as the pivot, the entire ceremony can be carried out with maximum efficiency. It will not only bless oneself, but at least it can keep the rift there during the operation of the ceremony.
You know, when he was practicing in the first and second stages, in order to maintain the continuity of his energy, whenever the cracks were about to close, he would use the Xuejun Sword to cut them open again. Although the Xuejun Sword is now strong enough to withstand such actions, doing so always requires distraction.
Although there was not much obstacle for him at that time, this final stage was different from the first and second stages. It was the most difficult level. He had to give it his all and preferably not be distracted at all. If he could keep the rift going, it would be of great help.
And from the text descriptions and ritual patterns on the Xuan Cloak, we can see that there was originally a crack here connecting to the outside world, but it is no longer visible. I don’t know if it was closed for some reason, so the Xuanjiao people here abandoned this place.
But that happens not to be a problem here.
The mystic just now said that there are things here that can help him, and these things can indeed help him.
He reached out and took off the black cloak, then with a glance, the jars floated up one by one. Then he turned and walked out to the pool outside.
He poured all the fat in the jars into the pool. After using up half of the jars, the jade-white fat in the pool was almost reaching the edge.
Seeing that it was almost done, he went to the jade bowl next to him, grabbed a few handfuls of sand from it and sprinkled it on the bottom. After a while, as the fat was dissolved by the sand, it began to boil like a pot, and soon there was steam rising up.
This movement was much louder than before. As the steam rose, almost enough to submerge a person's figure, he could feel that the entire Jade Peak seemed to begin to tremble slightly.
After waiting for a while and seeing that there was no problem, Chen Chuan took the black cloak and walked out.
As for the bowl of spiritual liquid, he was not going to use it. He felt that what he had in front of him was enough, and he did not think that the thing could help improve his potential.
Even if there is, according to the Xuanjiao's way, no matter how much benefit he gets, he also needs to bear the additional burden brought by the benefit. It is hard to say how much effect drinking it will have, but it may involve more things.
Moreover, it was clearly written on the jade token that it was reserved for the younger generations of the Xuan Sect. Since I was not a member of the Xuan Sect, there was no need for me to be greedy and take it all.
After reaching the top, he saw a huge cloud of mist rising from the top of Jade Peak, covering the entire peak like an umbrella, and there were strands of water droplets falling down like beads, directly to the bottom of the peak, stirring up more rain and mist.
Looking into the distance, you can see a winding river rumbling under your feet. When it hits some obstacles, it will rumble and then turn outward. It is like a living thing, tumbling and running there, connecting all the surrounding mountains together.
The scale of this secret ceremony seemed to be larger than he had imagined.
In fact, in addition to blessing and maintaining the rift, this ritual can also help him effectively protect against external invasions. However, according to the description on the ritual pattern, there is still one step to be done.
He returned to the cave, and as soon as he stepped in, he felt the black cloak in his hand tremble slightly. This thing should be made of some special items, so it can play the role of the ritual pivot. And here in the cave is the pivot.
He walked to the side and took off his hat. His hair had grown considerably longer after spending several months here. He pulled it back and tied it up casually with a tie. Then he threw the cloak over himself and stood still, looking forward. Now, the final stage began.
He picked up the Xuejun Knife and slashed it forward. The crack was immediately cut open, and the dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire cave.
He walked in with a knife and stood opposite.
With a change of mind, he summoned the spirit.
After the second stage is completed, the spiritual appearance has reached a height of eighteen or nineteen meters. This is actually the height that many fourth-level practitioners have practiced for a lifetime, or even at the point of alienation.
But as for him, he has not yet reached the realm of Changshengguan.
Of course, in actual combat, the spirit can change into large or small, real or virtual according to the fighter's own wishes, but this height is the true form, and the power it represents is the most real.
Looking inside the spiritual form, it seemed as if intricate strands of light were entwined and twisted, spreading almost entirely throughout his body. This was the alienated tissue that reflected his true form, encompassing everything, leaving nothing behind. It was precisely because of this towering and solid spiritual form that he could glimpse the highest level.
However, the highest level of heaven that Xuanshi told him about was not the real highest level. The world on the opposite side seemed to be endless. This level was the highest level that a practitioner could reach at this stage, and even this level seemed to be achievable only in theory.
And when breaking through, there will be a stronger infection, which mentions both the Xuanjiao method and the Wansong Company method.
The Xuanjiao says that these are "evil spirits" from outer space. These things are a level higher than the previous infections, because as the level of the practitioners themselves improves, the infection that covets them will become correspondingly stronger.
Well, let's give it a try.
Chen Chuan raised his head, and at the same time, Lingxiang also made the same action as him, raised his head, and the third eye above suddenly opened. Suddenly, a ray of light shot out and instantly penetrated into the thick light fog above.
