In the alchemy room.
Shen Lian used the magic formula to collect the pills and took the eleven Yuanji Shengling Pills into his hand.
Among these eleven pills, three are of top quality, five are of medium quality, and three are of low quality.
The reason why there are ups and downs is that he transferred the medicinal power of low-quality elixirs to high-quality ones.
Moreover, because the pills were being refined in the alchemy room arranged by Qian Dai, Shen Lian did not dare to refine only seven or eight pills of top quality.
Why did it take a year to refine the Shengling Pill? It wasn't because Shen Lian was lazy, but the spiritual medicines given by the fat man contained a trace of resentment. Such a long time was mainly used to dissolve the resentment in the spiritual medicines.
The resentment was naturally not that Qian Dai wanted to harm him. If Shen Lian guessed correctly, the source of this batch of elixirs was exactly from the depths of the wilderness.
In a place where resentment is rampant, even elixir will be infiltrated by negative energy.
Fortunately, these evil spirits can be expelled, otherwise, there would be no way to obtain the elixir.
After Qian Dai entered the alchemy room, he directly divided the batch of pills into two and gave half to Qian Dai.
"Brother Lu's alchemy skills are indeed superb."
Playing with the top-quality Yuanji Shengling Pill, the flesh on Qian Dai's chubby face trembled.
"Brother Lu, are you satisfied with this alchemy room?"
"After wandering for hundreds of years, I found a cave, so I am naturally very satisfied."
Shen Lian looked very literary, and he saw the change in Qian Dai's expression after he entered the cave. This fat man deliberately wanted to corrupt him. Fortunately, he had seen through the fat man's trick long ago.
Without waiting for Fatty to say anything else, Shen Lian asked, "Brother Qian, what happened in the wilderness?"
Speaking of business, Qian Dai also restrained his expression, "An unusual crack is most likely a secret realm. Brother Lu has never seen it before. This time you can go and take a look, so that you can get to know it better."
The space in the desolate area is weak, and any slightly larger energy fluctuation will cause signs of space fragmentation. When the fragmented space triggers a chain reaction, it will easily reveal some deeply hidden secrets.
"However, the wilderness is not very friendly to living Nascent Soul cultivators. My Xuanshi Sect has a secret technique that can be used to revive the dead."
As Qian Dai spoke, he told Shen Lian the secret method, and then took out a small coffin and threw it to Shen Lian.
Inside the coffin was the body of a sea creature's golden elixir.
The Xuanshi Sect's method of resurrecting the dead is similar to splitting a soul and attaching it to a corpse, but the level of sophistication is much less.
However, it is extremely easy for a Nascent Soul to control the body of a Jindan cultivator.
After the two flew out of the cave, Qian Dai summoned a coffin lid.
"Brother Lu, come up. The flying speed of my Xuanming coffin lid is comparable to that of a great cultivator in the late Yuanying stage. It flies really fast."
Shen Lian nodded, stepped onto the coffin lid and stood side by side with Qian Dai.
As Qian Dai muttered to himself, the coffin lid under his feet made a humming sound, and suddenly became about an acre in size, then shot out with a whoosh.
Waves of earth, wood, metal and stone power rolled up and formed an airtight shield around the coffin lid, keeping the strong wind and the rising sea water out.
The light was like an arrow, rushing all the way to the south where the desolate area was located.
Shen Lian still has some ideas about this place called the Desolate Land.
He is the evil cultivator who was trying to do good deeds. I don’t know whether he has left or not.
Now thinking back, there is a reason why this evil cultivator stayed in the wilderness. He must have the means to transcend resentment.
…
Five hundred thousand miles deep in the wilderness.
Two figures fell down, and a dark space crack appeared faintly among the diffuse colorful miasma, releasing boundless sharpness.
Even though the distance was quite far, it still gave people a feeling that their flesh and bones were about to be torn apart. The body of the sea creature controlled by Shen Lian was directly torn apart, leaving bloody marks.
"This space crack is really scary."
Shen Lian's voice was heard from the sea creature's body, and Qian Dai, who had summoned his own spirit corpse as a substitute, also nodded.
His natal spirit corpse was originally born in the depths of the wilderness, and the aura on his body is extremely integrated with this place, so he can come in here without any scruples.
“Buzz!
Qian Dai waved his hand and made an orchid finger movement. A stream of light flickered twice from the fingertips and rushed into the crack.
The light flashed and then disappeared into the depths of the crack.
Boom! In an instant, the void crack that was originally just a crack suddenly collapsed completely, and the overwhelming space debris flew like a knife.
It can be said that there was almost no time to react before the collapse began.
"Brother Lu, this is a tough idea, run!"
Seeing the silver light coming towards him, Qian Dai roared and summoned a coffin without a lid, covering him and his sea clan clone inside.
The bottom of the coffin was facing upwards, and the space debris in the sky was like swords, smashing on the coffin with crackling sounds.
By the time the two of them used the coffin to run thousands of miles away, the aura of Qian Dai's original spirit corpse had already dissipated, and the corpse of the sea creature controlled by Shen Lian was even worse, it was completely shattered into a pile, and blue blood was spilled everywhere.
Buzz! However, this is not the end.
At the place where the void collapsed in the back, the sky and the earth suddenly became dark. The colorful miasma was being swallowed up by the black air bit by bit, and crying sounds were heard in the rolling black air.
In the black air, people’s heads surged and their cries rose and fell continuously, just like the waves sweeping out.
Qian Dai muttered to himself, ignoring the damage to his own spirit corpse, and continued to flee in the coffin.
"Brother Lu, this time it's my fault. I came here rashly without knowing everything."
Half a day later, the coffin broke through the colorful miasma among the mountains and finally entered a valley. It slammed into a silky spiritual barrier and was then swallowed by it.
The two men jumped out of the coffin, and Qian Dai pinched the face of his own spirit corpse.
"Good thing you're tough enough, little darling."
…
"Brother Lu, this is a base that my sect has set up in the wilderness. If you can't find a place to rest in the future, you can come here to rest. There is a fourth-level formation guarding the periphery, so it is relatively safe."
"Wait a few days, I'll have someone check the crack carefully again."
After rushing into the depths of the wilderness, he came out covered in dust and dirt, which was quite unlucky.
The two of them entered the cave dwellings in the valley to rest. Although their real bodies were not outside, the impact of the space riot still caused their blood to surge and their minds to be restless, and they needed to calm down.
After entering the cave, Fat Brother grinned.
"Since Fellow Daoist Lu is a chaste man who doesn't like women, and we can't go to Hongyanfang together, we can only escape together."
The Xuanshi Sect has been researching in the wilderness for so many years, how come they don’t know the horror of the space cracks here? But Shen Lian doesn’t know.
This incident not only told Shen Lian that the wilderness was full of dangers and that a small space crack could swallow up a Nascent Soul cultivator, but they could also sleep in the same coffin together, arm in arm. How wonderful.
…
Of course Shen Lian didn't know Qian Dai's little thoughts, and he would not think about it in this way. He just thought that the fat man's coffin magic treasure was very cool, only slightly inferior to his Five Elements Ship.
To be honest, the space cracks in the wilderness are really terrifying. The slightest fluctuation will cause the entire piece to collapse. If you are in the central area of the space, it will be easy to get trapped in it if everything on all sides collapses at once.
In addition, the space in other places collapsed, but behind the space here, there was an extremely strong aura of resentment.
First, he was sucked into the space debris, and then surrounded by resentment, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
A space shattering made Shen Lian realize that it was not easy to find elixirs. At least he did not have the fat man's natal spirit corpse, so it was not easy for him to travel through the wilderness.
I don’t know if my clone will work.
…
When Qian Dai touched the space crack and triggered the wave of resentment, in a remote place in the northeast of the wilderness.
A female scholar with a heroic face was drinking for fun. She frowned, and two illusory flags appeared above her head, and two little figures began to call out in a babbling voice.
"Shut up, I'm thinking of using delicious food. How can I work if I'm not full?"
Fanshan stretched out his hands and pressed them against his head. After rubbing the flag that had popped out a few times, he pressed it back into his head.
He rolled the two little figures into a ball in his palm and stuffed them into his mouth to chew.
But after chewing it twice or three times, the two little men popped out from the top of his head again, laughing.
"Oh, you guys are so annoying!"
Fan Shan rubbed his head angrily, but the two little men pointed to the southern direction of the wilderness.
"There are so many resentful souls that I can't handle them even if I have ten thousand heads. In this case, I might as well take my time."
"I am a demon cultivator. I am a demon cultivator. Do you know what a demon cultivator is? I am a great villain who kills people without blinking an eye and grinds their bones to dust. What have I become now?"
"It's simply a disgrace to the Master of Demonic Path!"
He picked up a wine jar, a bloody mouth appeared immediately, and he threw the wine jar into his mouth.
In the end, he became so annoyed that he opened his mouth wide and stretched out a tongue like a giant python. He scraped the surrounding mountains and fields and swallowed even the grass roots.
"Damn it, I'm not even half full. My stomach is getting more and more hungry. What should I do?"
"I wish I could be like that guy Yun Mo, planting flowers when I have nothing to do, how free I am. If I had known that I would be in that cave, I should have taken the pot of flowers instead of the pair of broken banners."
"You two banners are causing me so much trouble."
After eating everything around him, Fanshan stood up and stretched. With his right hand, he groped in his hair on the right side and pulled out a banner.
"The world is at peace, disasters are eliminated and blessings are prayed for."
"When I finish this job, I will collect all the banners in the entire cultivation world, smelt them into a super-large rice cauldron, and go to the third heaven to catch big birds to eat."
…
Half a year later.
Deep in the wilderness.
The void collapsed, and a stream of light hurriedly fled out of it, leaving behind bits of colorful light wherever it passed.
Wherever the spiritual light collapsed, the unique spiritual body of the spirit puppet was revealed.
Seeing this, Shen Lian felt terrified. If his real body fell in there, he would be ripped open.
It is certain that if I force my way in, I will be dancing on the edge of a knife and might get killed at any time.
After some investigation, he came to a conclusion.
Within 500,000 miles south of the wilderness, the space is stable and there are no major problems. Apart from the miasma, there is not much resentment.
Once the limit of 500,000 miles is exceeded, it is equivalent to entering a dangerous area directly.
In addition, his natal five elements spirit puppet was also restricted and could not enter at all.
The space in the inner area is very mysterious and has merged with the resentment. Even if the Nascent Soul cultivator suppresses his own Qi, the resentment is extremely sensitive to the breath of living beings.
The extremely refined five elements energy of the spirit puppet attracts more resentment and attention than that of normal flesh and blood creatures.
Once resentment surges, it will shatter the already fragile space.
When the monks saw the space was shattered, using their magic power would only increase the degree and speed of the space shattering.
At the foot of a low hill.
Inside the cave opened up by Shen Lian.
There were a few blurry shadows like babies on the body of the returning natal spirit puppet, biting its shoulders, arms, and back.
Although his features were blurry and unclear, the aura of resentment lingered like miasma.
Shen Lian stared at the resentful shadow for a few more seconds, and finally let out a long sigh. This resentment was too cruel. It seemed as weak as green smoke, but it could even bite a spirit at the Nascent Soul level.
He picked off the resentful thoughts that were biting the spirit puppets and stored them temporarily in the Cave of Merit.
If the spirit puppet trick doesn't work, then we can only start with other puppets and the corpse-resurrection method.
Although Qian Dai has elixirs, he can't just catch someone and take advantage of them. Shen Lian feels that it is necessary to look for it himself.
This was also the reason why he came out of the Xuanshi Sect's stronghold. Qian Dai never forced him to stay, but just told him to practice in the stronghold if he had nowhere to go.
"I don't know, where is that fellow demon cultivator who is cultivating merit?"
After thinking for a long time, Shen Lian once again remembered the female cultivator with two children on her head. He felt that this female cultivator was probably still wandering in the wilderness.
We can't be impatient about this matter. Let's just follow the old method and roll out surveillance first.
Since he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, cannot enter, he can use other puppets or other things to replace the original body. Spirit puppets cannot be used because their spirituality is too strong, but puppets made from other flesh and blood creatures are full of lifelessness, so they can be tried.
Then, he captured the three spirit beasts from the cave.
It was quite possible to increase the dosage of medicine for the three guys before. Under the impact of the powerful medicine, the three beasts all advanced to the middle stage of the third stage, and the three thousand who passed the tribulation first are almost in the late stage of the third stage.
If it wasn't for the need for a buffer and the fear that the three beasts would break apart and not stick back together, Shen Lian would have directly increased the dosage.
"Master, the effect of the medicine I took last time has not yet been completely digested."
Dahei spoke timidly, stretching out his two paws and protesting quietly.
Shen Lian pressed down Dahei's paw, indicating that his protest was invalid.
"The master has raised you for a long time. Now it's time for you to be busy for the master."
"Dahei, this is where you were born. Show your true ability and give birth to 10 billion black-horned ants within a year. Three years... five years..."
“Sanqian, you have awakened dragon bloodline. There are many underground rivers here. Check them out for me.
"There are many rotten bone monster eagles in the miasma forest, and their bloodlines are very inferior. I leave these to you."
"Okay, the first thing to do now is to catch more queen ants for Dahei."
