Chapter 119 Ancestor of the Golden Pill
It is precisely because of the inability to control weapons that cultivators in the Qi refining stage and foundation building stage can only rely on walking on their feet if they want to test in this thousands of miles of snowy field.
However, even if a cultivator pours mana into his feet, his speed is much faster than that of ordinary martial arts masters, so there is no inconvenience.
Landing in front of Xuelao Pass, Xiao Lin, like most cultivators in the Qi Refining Period, lined up to enter Xuelao Pass. After entering Xuelao Pass, he walked through the streets in the pass and soon came to Wanli Snowfield. entrance.
The entrance to the Wanli Snowfield is a huge copper door with a height of more than ten feet. At this moment, the copper door has been opened, and many Qi Refining Stage cultivators filed in from the copper door. After entering the snowfield, they quickly disappeared. In the vast ice and snow.
Along the way, Xiao Lin saw many Qi-refining cultivators walking on the snowy fields. Most of them were like secular warriors, pouring mana into their legs to increase their walking speed. Some of them were practicing. The cultivator of wind control casts this basic spell and lightly passes over the snow, leaving only a shallow footprint.
Xiao Lin naturally also used his Dzogchen Level Wind Control Technique. With the help of Liuyun Qingshen Technique, a secular light skill, he was able to surpass most cultivators in the Qi Refining Period in terms of speed. Every time he swept up They are more than ten feet long, and there are no traces on the snow under their feet. This is much better than the secular light skill of walking on snow without leaving a trace.
Many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage are walking in this cold snowfield, basically in a state of silence. The cave trial is undoubtedly a dangerous ravine for them. No one has such confidence in whether they can cross it. , so everyone’s mood is undoubtedly very heavy.
The same was true for Xiao Lin. He was silent and hurried along silently. The catacomb trial was related to how far he could go on the road of cultivation. He naturally attached great importance to it and tried every means to improve his combat power. But other participants Why is this not true for cultivators who undergo trials in the cave?
Three days later, Xiao Lin came to a small valley. This small valley was surrounded by mountains on three sides. There was only an entrance several miles wide in the south. The valley was probably dozens of miles long. In the innermost part of the valley, near the mountains, stood There is a huge stone tablet with the word "Cave" written in ancient seal script.
In addition, everything is covered in ice and snow, and the entrance to the cave cannot be seen at all.
When Xiao Lin rushed to the valley, the valley was already densely packed with cultivators. Most of them found a place, sat down cross-legged, and quietly closed their eyes and adjusted their breath. Many cultivators even came early because they came early. The whole body was covered in ice and snow, and it seemed that he had entered a state of cultivation where the five senses were closed.
The entire valley was enveloped in a chilling atmosphere, so even though there were at least thousands of cultivators gathered in the valley, it was silent, and the only sound was the whistling of the wind and snow.
Xiao Lin silently found a stone, blew out a burst of mana from his palm to clean up the snow on the stone, then silently sat cross-legged on it, and after taking an improved version of the Spirit-Absorbing Pill, Xiao Lin began to practice. .
Although he was practicing, Xiao Lin did not close his five senses. He would pause his practice every once in a while and open his eyes to observe. In just half a day, the number of monks in the valley increased a lot. It made Xiao Lin's heart feel heavier and heavier.
Feeling the few monks around them, they were also silent like Xiao Lin, but the pressure of the late stage of Qi refining on their bodies was still released without reservation. The cultivators in this valley were undoubtedly They came to participate in the catacomb trial. Most of these cultivators were in the late stage of Qi refining, but there were also many cultivators in the Great Perfection state in the Qi refining stage. What made Xiao Lin quite speechless was that There are also a large number of mid-stage Qi refining cultivators.
The catacomb trial is the most dangerous trial in the world of Tianlu cultivation, with a mortality rate of up to 90%. Therefore, every time the crypt is opened, most of the people who enter it are cultivators who are in the late stage of Qi refining and the Great Perfection stage of Qi refining. Because even if a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi refining enters the cave, most of them will be like cannon fodder, and their survival probability is extremely low.
But after thinking about it, Xiao Lin figured out the reason. After all, the catacomb trial is only opened once every thirty years, but for many cultivators in the Qi refining period, when the catacombs are opened, they are in the right time. The probability of being before the age of forty is not very high. Many cultivators even encounter the cave opening when they are in their teens. When the next time it opens, they are already over forty years old. Even if they venture in and get the Purple Spirit Flower, there will be no chance of it. meaningful.
Those cultivators who happen to be in the golden age of cultivation between twenty and thirty years old, and whose cultivation is still in the late stage of Qi refining or the Great Perfection, are undoubtedly lucky. If they can pick the Purple Spirit Flower in the cave, they will undoubtedly be able to Hopes for foundation building are greatly increased.
When the cave opens, cultivators who have not reached the late stage of Qi Refining or above are in a very embarrassing situation. Go in, not to mention that the probability of picking the Purple Spirit Flower is extremely low, even if you can come out alive, it will be It's a very lucky thing. If you don't go in, when the next time the cave opens, you must have passed the best age for cultivation, and you will feel unwilling to do so.
Under this contradiction, some determined cultivators will also choose to participate in the cave trial to try their luck. If they pick the Purple Spirit Flower and walk out of the cave alive, it can be said that they will reach the sky in one step and be able to join the Five It is not impossible for a large sect to get a foundation-building pill and enter the foundation-building stage.
Just as Xiao Lin sighed secretly and was about to continue practicing, a huge escaping light with a length of more than ten feet flew from the sky. The escaping light appeared light red. As soon as it appeared outside the mountain, it arrived over the valley in almost the blink of an eye. , the light dissipated, revealing a middle-aged monk about thirty years old. The middle-aged monk had fair skin, regular facial features, and a rather delicate appearance. At first glance, he did not look like a cultivator, but more like a cultivator. Scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam.
But there was a commotion in the silent valley the moment the middle-aged monk appeared. The middle-aged monk stood dozens of feet in the air, as if he had merged with the space. Despite the howling wind and snow, he It is unmoving.
"A cultivator in the Golden Core Realm?" Xiao Lin's expression changed. In this snowy field, even cultivators in the foundation-building stage cannot fly with weapons. It is even rumored that as long as they use weapons of the Five Elements, they cannot fly in this snowy field. use.
You must know that most of the magic tools used by cultivators are made from materials from monsters and beasts, mixed with some hardware and metals. This means that the magic tools of cultivators must be contaminated with the energy of the five elements, so as long as Those who are cultivators below the Golden Core Realm are basically unable to control weapons in this snowy plain.
But Jindan realm cultivators are different. They have condensed the magic weapon in their bodies, and with the help of the magic power in the Dantian, the magic weapon has become one with themselves, and the energy of the five elements has gradually dissipated. Even if there is still a little bit left, it will not matter. Unfortunately, the characteristics of the Five Elements Forbidden Weapon in the Thousand Miles of Snowfield are not applicable to cultivators in the Golden Core Realm.
The middle-aged monk glanced coldly at the many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage in the valley, then withdrew his gaze without any expression on his face. Then, in front of everyone's surprised eyes, he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Many of the cultivators in the Qi Refining Period looked at the middle-aged monk in the void with envy. Cultivators at the level of the Golden Pill Ancestor were undoubtedly legendary existences for cultivators in the Qi Refining Period.
Normally, it would be a normal thing for some people to never see a cultivator at the level of the ancestor of the golden elixir, even if they have practiced all their lives. After all, cultivators at the golden elixir level have been cultivating for more than five hundred years. Shouyuan, a longer retreat, may be the lifetime of an ordinary cultivator in the Qi refining period.
The huge spiritual pressure of the Golden Core cultivator emanating from the middle-aged monk made Xiao Lin, who was a hundred feet away, feel thrilling. Xiao Lin's heart was palpitating, and his face was full of envy. The Golden Core cultivator The person is already a legendary existence in the Tianlu Mountains.
A longevity of more than five hundred years allows them to see all the vicissitudes of the world. In comparison, they have become completely mortals. This is the spiritual pressure emitted when the middle-aged monks deliberately restrained their own magic power. If If he really lets go of his aura completely, most of the cultivators in this valley will not be able to bear it.
"The Golden Elixir Ancestors from the five major sects have already arrived. It seems that the underground cave will be opened soon."
"Golden elixir ancestor, my god, it would be great if I could cultivate to this level." A bearded man in his thirties said with envy on his face as he looked at the middle-aged monk in mid-air. .
"You?" Then a sneer came from the side, and a strong man who looked to be in his mid-twenties said: "If you want to enter the golden elixir realm, you must first come out of the cave alive."
Hearing this, the bearded man just touched his nose and smiled, but did not refute. Maybe in his heart, he did not think that one day he would be able to step into the golden elixir realm.
After a brief commotion, the entire valley fell into silence again, but most of the cultivators had no intention of cultivating and were silent. Many people looked at the middle-aged monks in the air from time to time, showing envy. color.
Another hour later, from outside the valley, there was another roar of the escaping light tearing the air. Two thick escaping lights flew from the sky. They reached the sky above the valley in a matter of breaths and sat in the air. The middle-aged monk also opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on his expressionless face.
"Fairy Liu, I didn't expect that you would be the one to preside over the opening of the crypt this time. Why, Fellow Daoist Ling didn't come?"
The light dissipated, revealing two figures. One was a woman in her twenties, charming and charming. She was dressed in a pink robe and looked extremely conspicuous in the snow-white valley. Her hair was covered with golden scales. The ornaments almost wrapped the entire head of green hair, and on one side of the head full of golden scales, there was a jade diamond inserted diagonally, shining with a faint cyan light.
Next to him, stood an old man in his fifties or sixties. The old man had white hair, but his face was like that of a newborn baby. His figure was extremely weird. At first glance, he was only four feet long. If it weren't for his full body, With his white hair, he might be mistaken for a ten-year-old child.
After hearing what the middle-aged monk said, a chill appeared on the face of the pink-robed woman, and she said lightly: "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Shangguan from Bailian Sect."
