Chapter 20 Your novice time has expired, please recharge in time!

[Congratulations! The three hundred years of novice protection period has passed! ]

[On the long journey to immortality, the almighty immortal cultivation system will continue to serve you wholeheartedly and escort your road to immortality! ]

[Warm reminder! Your novice benefits have expired! If you need to extend the period, please recharge and upgrade to the almighty immortal cultivation package! ]

[Your system version is relatively low and the recharge service has not been opened. Do you want to upgrade the system? ]

[Yes/No]

With a series of system prompts, Cui Heng clearly felt that everything around him was disappearing rapidly.

First, the novice house disappeared, and then the novice farm disappeared.

Then he lost his sense of the Yellow Turban Warrior, and his robes and his flying sword all disappeared out of thin air.

This is the so-called "expiration of newbie benefits".

It is naturally impossible to stay in the newbie space any longer.

In a blink of an eye, Cui Heng left the newbie space naked and appeared in a lush forest.

The huge trees here are towering, blocking the sunlight, the temperature is humid, and the air is a bit sticky.

"It's too outrageous, not even a set of clothes left?"

Cui Heng was powerless to complain, but fortunately he had already achieved the golden elixir, and he used his magic power to condense a set of clothes for himself in an instant.

However, after complaining, he laughed again, "This is quite interesting. I came to this world naked, which can be regarded as a new life."

After all, he had been cultivating immortals for three hundred years, so his mood soon calmed down. While looking at the surrounding environment, he was also considering what he should do next.

"This seems to be a primeval forest, with no people. Tsk, why does it look a bit like the forest I just crossed over."

Cui Heng suddenly felt that something seemed a little wrong.

He scanned the trees around him, and then checked the land under his feet. His expression became strange, "This is actually the forest where I was when I first crossed over!"

The land and trees in the novice space were "dug" from this forest, so he naturally knew them.

What does this mean?

This means that after he walked out of the novice space, he actually appeared in the world he was in when he just crossed over!

This is also the "Advanced Immortal Hero Space" that caused the system to issue an alarm.

Cui Heng suddenly felt numb.

It was said that the novice space was to wander in the cracks of the heavens and myriad worlds, and would shuttle between various worlds?

In vain, he even tried to inquire about the situation in the outside world, wanting to prepare for his own exit.

In the end, he still came to the original starting point?

"System, what's going on? Am I still in the world I just crossed over to?" Cui Heng frowned and asked in his heart.

[On the long journey to immortality, the almighty immortal cultivation system is dedicated to serving you and escorting your road to immortality! ]

[Warm reminder! Your novice benefits have expired! If you need to extend the period, please recharge and upgrade to the almighty immortal cultivation package! ]

[Your system version is relatively low and the recharge service has not been opened! Do you want to upgrade the system? ]

[Yes/No]

This series of prompts was the only response to him.

"..." Cui Heng's mouth twitched slightly, and he resisted the urge to curse, and gave the system an order, "Yes!"

[Congratulations! Dear host, you have passed the novice period, and the system will be upgraded to the latest version! ]

[Upgrade begins! 】

【Progress...0.1%...0.3%...0.31%...】

Then a day and a night passed.

The progress was only 10%!

Fortunately, Cui Heng was already an experienced cultivator, and he could sit in seclusion for more than ten years or even decades. He could afford to wait for just ten days.

Sure enough, after waiting for ten days, the system upgrade progress finally reached 99%!

And then it stopped!

Even after twenty days, the progress was still 99%, with no trend of growth.

Absurd!

"I can't just wait here."

Cui Heng finally couldn't sit still anymore and began to consider where to go.

In his opinion, this is an extremely dangerous world, and a place like the forest with no defense capabilities is not safe at all.

If there are some immortal cultivators fighting in the sky, any spell cast by them will raze this forest to the ground, and he will also be affected. He

doesn't even need to be too strong.

Just a few Yuanying fighting spells will cause the aftermath to break his body.

If the golden elixir can be preserved, it will be fine, and he can slowly revive. If the golden elixir is destroyed, he will really be destroyed.

It's better to hide in a cave.

The higher and bigger the mountain, the safer it is.

The shelter is big enough.

There is a mountain outside to act as a buffer, so maybe he won't be killed on the spot.

But he soon thought that with his current golden elixir Dacheng cultivation, it is not difficult to destroy a mountain.

He can even smash a mountain below a hundred feet into powder with just one punch. If he

really encountered a fight between strong men, it would not be safe unless he hid in a mountain.

With this in mind, he carefully flew up to the sky and looked far away, and found that there were no tall mountains within hundreds of miles.

Moreover, there was a village more than thirty miles away.

This meant that this place was not really far away from human habitation. If there

were people gathering nearby, there might be strong and powerful people, and he might encounter an existence that he could not resist.

As for going to the village to inquire about the situation, he had never even thought about such a thing.

Before he was fully confident of self-protection, contact with any stranger might put him in danger.

So, after careful consideration, Cui Heng looked at the ground under his feet.

Then, he secretly used his magic power, and a faint golden light appeared on his body.

At the same time, the ground under Cui Heng's feet seemed to be pulled by some invisible force, and it automatically separated to both sides, and he slowly sank into the ground.

Yes, after thinking about it, he still felt that it would be safer to hide underground. Anyway,

he had achieved the great success of the golden elixir, and did not need to eat or drink water, or even breathe. His body was already strong enough to withstand the huge pressure underground.

Hiding tens of thousands of meters underground was much safer than hiding in a cave.

As for the method of dividing the soil and sinking, it was actually a magical power that naturally emerged after he refined the golden elixir.

He called it the "Five Elements Retreat Method."

Including methods of avoiding water, fire, soil and other methods of retreating from the five elements.

"After the novice benefits expire, even the novice fairy method can no longer be opened, otherwise I can practice underground until I can transcend the calamity and ascend to heaven."

Cui Heng thought as he sank, "Now I only know how to break through to the Yuanying realm. The subsequent content can only be read after recharging. I am afraid that I will still have to go out after the system upgrade is completed.

"However, as long as the recharge entrance is opened and the novice space can be recharged, I can hide in the novice space when I encounter danger, which can be regarded as having the power to protect myself."

The content of the fairy method is too complicated. It is impossible to understand the content of the higher realm in advance, and even memorize it.

Therefore, although he has read the entire "Novice Fairy Method", he did not write it down.

"Huh? ! "

At this moment, Cui Heng suddenly let out a light exclamation. He felt that his way to avoid the sinking of the earth was blocked.

He had only sunk a dozen meters.

"What's going on?"

Cui Heng looked closely and found that it was a large stone slab blocking the way. It looked like it was cut by humans, and there were many pieces laid together.

There was such a thing more than ten meters underground. There must be a tomb underneath.

Cui Heng had no interest in tombs.

But just when he was about to take a detour and leave, he suddenly received a prompt from the system.

[Congratulations! The system version upgrade has been completed! The recharge channel has been opened!]

[Congratulations! Found an item that can be converted into recharge currency. Do you want to convert it immediately?]
