Chapter 835 Fairyland is deserted
Lin Mu was overjoyed and prepared to nurture and refine the Sui Xin Sword with all his strength. The remaining spiritual treasures would at least restore their previous power.
However, it was extremely regrettable that after condensing two earth-grade spirit beads, he found that the spiritual consciousness of Piaomiao Fairyland had been exhausted.
Millions of cultivators entered Piaomiao Fairyland. Under his generous rewards, many cultivators were tempering their spiritual consciousness in the quiet room, or entering the illusion of challenging themselves, tempering and improving themselves, hoping that if the challenge was successful, they would be able to soar into the sky.
In just half a year, the spiritual consciousness accumulated in Piaomiao Fairyland was extremely deep, but after the Five Elements Magic Mirror was promoted to a peerless spiritual treasure, its power was almost lost. Just restoring the power of the Five Elements Magic Mirror consumed more than half of the spiritual consciousness of Piaomiao Fairyland.
Although the peerless spiritual treasure is powerful, the spiritual consciousness consumed to restore its power is also extremely amazing.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, it would probably take most of his life to slowly nurture and refine it to restore the power of the Five Elements Magic Mirror.
Even if the power of the Five Elements Magic Mirror was restored in a short period of time, the price paid was imaginable, and it would definitely not be easy.
In addition, the power of the two excellent spiritual treasures, Qingyun Ding and Sui Xin Sword, was also restored, and two earth-grade condensing beads were consumed, and the spiritual consciousness in the ethereal fairyland was swept away.
A good cook cannot cook without rice.
Without the spiritual consciousness, let alone refining the Sui Xin Sword to the level of a peerless spiritual treasure, even wanting to restore the power of the Fire Element Armor, the Golden Light Sword, and ten spiritual treasures, is a luxury.
Do we have to wait another half a year?
Many forces in the ten major cities around him have united to deal with him. It took him three months to stabilize his cultivation and recover his vitality. If he waited another half a year, there would be too many variables in the meantime. I am afraid that before he has time to recover the power of these spiritual magic weapons, those forces will unite and attack him.
What's more, he has consumed so much of his spiritual consciousness and has not completely restored the power of the Five Elements Magic Mirror.
The recovery and improvement of the power of magic weapons is just like the improvement of cultivation by cultivators. The more time passes, the more spiritual consciousness is consumed and the speed of improvement is much more difficult, and the speed will also decrease a lot.
It is not an easy thing to achieve the goal.
Lin Mu entered the Piaomiao Fairyland to check it out, and soon found another very bad news.
In order to encourage cultivators to consume spiritual consciousness in the Piaomiao Fairyland, he came up with two countermeasures. In the first few months, the effect was remarkable.
However, in the past few months since he returned from the tribulation, he obviously found that the number of cultivators who were at ease in the quiet room to temper their spiritual consciousness and wait for the generous rewards was decreasing.
More than half of the cultivators gave up halfway through and returned empty-handed, wasting all the time before.
Lin Mu felt sorry for them.
It was almost a year, and they couldn't hold on any longer. It was a pity.
Of course, he also felt sorry for himself. These cultivators gave up, and the accumulation of the spiritual consciousness in the Misty Fairyland slowed down.
Having said that, such cultivators were so impetuous that they couldn't even hold on to such things, and their future achievements would be limited.
Only those who endured hardships can become superior.
Practicing in silence in a quiet room and tempering spiritual consciousness are actually very beneficial to them. Lin Mu was helpless if they couldn't hold on.
He helped the cultivators provide such an excellent place to cultivate spiritual consciousness, and even took out his own skills and cultivation resources to reward the diligent and persistent ones. He asked himself that he had done everything he should do, and if he couldn't rise or go further, he could only blame himself for being too lazy and lacking perseverance.
The number of cultivators tempering their spiritual consciousness in the quiet room has dropped by more than half, and Lin Mu is extremely distressed.
But compared with the illusion of transcending oneself, the number of cultivators lost is nothing.
When he first set up the illusion of transcending oneself, it was almost all the rage in the Misty Fairyland and received thousands of favors. Many cultivators kept entering the illusion to challenge it, almost becoming addicted and enjoying it.
At that time, genius cultivators were rushing to challenge successfully and get rich rewards.
Ordinary cultivators, who had nothing to do, relied on this to pass the time, and at the same time they could temper and improve their spiritual consciousness. They not only gained fun, but also passed the lonely time and improved their spiritual consciousness. It can be said to be the best of both worlds.
But after more than half a year, more than 80% of the cultivators have lost interest in the illusion of transcending themselves.
The other self in the illusion is the self in his prime, with good timing, and he can also use the white fog in the illusion to hide his body and sneak attack quietly, which also occupies the geographical advantage. The real self only has 20% to 30% of his consciousness to enter the ethereal fairyland, and his strength is greatly reduced, and he has lost the support of people.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for ordinary cultivators to challenge successfully.
At the beginning, most people were very excited, and they really wanted to kill time. They had never seen such an illusion before, and they felt very novel, but over time, this novelty passed, and the attraction of this illusion to them dropped sharply.
In addition, no one likes to fail, but they can't challenge successfully. After continuous failures, these ordinary cultivators, whose minds are not very tough, feel that they have been hit and destroyed, and can no longer experience any fun. What is left is only endless despair and frustration.
So they all left.
Lin Mu was slightly pleased that only a small part of those extremely talented cultivators left, while most of the extremely talented cultivators continued to challenge.
In less than a year, many cultivators have already touched the edge of success in the challenge.
This is a true victory of the weak against the strong!
It seems to be just a simple illusion, but if the challenge is successful, the concentration and durability of the spiritual consciousness, as well as the unpredictable changes of the magic weapon, will be greatly improved. The flying sword's attack power will be far better than before, and it will be difficult to fight against practitioners of the same level. Their attainments in swordsmanship are exactly the same, their cultivation is exactly the same, and the power of their flying swords is exactly the same. They can win easily without any suspense.
If they really succeed in challenging this illusion and receive generous rewards from Lin Mu, their strength will soar even more crazily.
This is almost a risk-free and excellent way to quickly improve your strength.
Especially for talented cultivators, it is perfect.
But genius cultivators are, after all, only a small number, and the largest number are always ordinary cultivators.
However, what Lin Mu hopes is that there will be a large number of cultivators who can practice in the misty fairyland, challenge themselves, and constantly consume their spiritual consciousness.
When things got to this point, in order to achieve what he wanted, he had to change his strategy and think of some ways to attract cultivators into the misty fairyland to consume their spiritual consciousness.
At the beginning, in order to achieve this step, he really meditated hard, racked his brains, and was almost exhausted mentally and physically.
Now, he also felt a terrible headache.
