Qin Xi cautiously looked around. He only saw a vast ocean with surging clouds and surging winds.
He stood on the ocean like duckweed in the wind. The surging spiritual aura scraped against his body, making him ache fiercely.
He knew this was an extremely brilliant formation. The master of this place must be a Nascent Soul cultivator, so even his Peak-Fixing Lamp couldn't detect any abnormalities.
He also knew the master of this place didn't have any evil intentions. A few days ago, he fought against a seventh rank demonic beast and spent a lot of effort to kill it. In the end, he was injured and happened to enter this formation.
During the days he was trapped in the formation, the master of this place didn't do anything to him. This formation was also a trapping formation, not a killing formation, so he simply steeled his heart and healed his injuries on the spot.
When he healed, the master opened the formation and let him go. Maybe the master was tired of him, or maybe the master found him pleasing to the eye.
However, he didn't have any evil intentions when he entered the formation unintentionally. Now that he wanted to break through the formation, this trapping formation might turn into a killing formation.
Before he could figure out what to do, a flash of lightning flashed. Qin Xi's figure moved and he instantly dashed thousands of feet away. When he looked back, he was instantly covered in cold sweat.
The place where he originally stood had set off monstrous waves that collided with the lightning, creating an earth-shattering rumble.
A part of his sleeve had already been burnt.
Sure enough, it turned into a killing formation.
When he entered this formation a few days ago, every day was an Illusory Formation and a Bewildering Formation, which couldn't cause him any real harm. But now, if he was a little slower, he might end up like this sleeve.
After thinking for a while, Qin Xi closed his eyes and fully released his divine sense.
There was an endless ocean … He sighed in disappointment, and his eyes looked gloomy. Sure enough, this formation wasn't something he could break with his current ability — who was the master of this place?
It wasn't like he hadn't seen a Nascent Soul cultivator's formation before, and he even used the Peak-Fixing Lamp to break a Nascent Soul cultivator's restriction. Facing a Nascent Soul expert, even if he didn't have the ability to fight back, he could at least do something. He never felt like he was being trampled on like he didn't even have a chance to escape.
He sighed softly, but a moment later, he closed his eyes and condensed his spiritual aura.
He summoned the Three Yang Real Fire Sword from his dantian. Under the spell, the sword shone with dazzling golden light and raged like fire.
This Three Yang Real Fire Sword was his natal magic weapon.
In one of his adventures in the past, he accidentally obtained a cultivation technique and the method to refine this sword. The two of them were originally a set. When he saw that the two of them combined, their power was astonishing. Moreover, they were compatible with his own spiritual roots, so he chose to make it his natal magic weapon.
After forming his Gold Core, he went through many difficulties and used the Golden Essence True Fire to refine it.
As soon as this sword was born, the wind, clouds, and thunder rumbled. That year was also the time of the demonic beast riot. Relying on this sword, Mo Tiange, who had just formed his Gold Core, became famous in west Kunwu.
He speculated that if he had enough spiritual energy, he might even be able to fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Now that he was inside this formation, he could feel the powerful strength of the master of this place. His cultivation level was only in the Core Formation realm, so he could only try his luck with the Three Yang Real Fire Sword.
Lightning flashed again, but Qin Xi didn't move. The Three Yang Real Fire Sword floated in the air. With the support of his spiritual aura, it shone brightly.
A bolt of lightning finally jumped down. He raised his hand, and the Three Yang Real Fire Sword floated in the air and collided with the lightning. The sword shook, but it managed to withstand the impact.
Upon seeing this scene, Qin Xi once again made a hand seal. The Three Yang Real Fire Sword absorbed the lightning and stood still. On the contrary, the lightning gradually weakened. One bright, one dim. The fire became fiercer, and the lightning gradually died out.
By the time the lightning disappeared, the Three Yang Real Fire Sword was burning like a scorching sun. It was so bright that it couldn't be looked at directly. Qin Xi made another hand seal, and a threatening momentum soared into the sky, almost tearing a hole in the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Xi's face gradually turned pale. His spiritual aura was almost exhausted, but he couldn't stop.
Metal gave birth to lightning, and fire restrained lightning. His Three Yang Real Fire Sword happened to have a metal body and a fire appearance, so he first used fire to resist it, then seized its power and used metal to support its momentum.
This power didn't belong to him, so he could barely control it. If he stopped now, he would suffer a backlash. Such a powerful Heavenly Thunder, and he hadn't mastered his Body-Refining Technique yet. If he fought it head-on, he would definitely die without a corpse!
"Uh-huh, this brat isn't bad. He has my style in the past!"
At that moment, Ingot was talking to himself inside the Virtual Sky World. "Not bad, not bad. A mere Core Formation cultivator actually dared to fight against the Illusory Sky Formation by using the mutual restraint of the five elements.
En, since you're pleasing to the eye, I'll play with you! "
Right after he finished speaking, Ingot flicked his sleeve, and a crack immediately appeared in front of him. He then jumped into it.
Right at this moment, Zhong Muling used both of his hands to support Mo Tiange, helping her to sit up so that she was sitting cross-legged. One of his hands formed a palm and slapped the top of her head while the other took out a jade box from inside his robe.
Zhong Muling's palm emitted an incomparably pure spiritual aura.
This spiritual aura was neither Yin nor Yang; it contained all five elements, but it didn't look like impure spiritual aura at all. It seemed to have formed a new kind of spiritual aura — clean, pure, and extremely gentle.
This spiritual aura easily entered Mo Tiange's meridians and dantian, slowly merging with it.
Mo Tiange's pale face gradually recovered. Under the nourishment of his spiritual aura, her vitality seemed to be rapidly restored, and her complexion became ruddy bit by bit.
Seeing that she was gradually recovering, Zhong Muling flicked his other hand and opened the jade box, revealing a green branch inside. On the branch, there was a human-shaped fruit that was neither grass nor gold.
It was said that after a thousand years, ginseng could transform into a human form and become a ginseng baby.
In fact, only immortal herbs could transform into human forms.
In the cultivation world, ginseng was just an ordinary herb with immortal aura. There were countless spiritual herbs with more spiritual aura than ginseng. However, ginseng was the closest species to immortal herbs, so it could grow into a human form.
This Five-Spirit Fruit was an immortal fruit. In the human world today, this kind of immortal root could no longer be found. Only Virtual Sky Worlds, which simulated the Primal Chaos, could have some of them. However, there weren't many known Virtual Sky Worlds, and he was the only one that had Five-Spirit Fruits.
Zhong Muling picked up the Five-Spirit Fruit. When he thought about how he had only picked this fruit for a few days, an angry expression appeared on his face.
But soon, he calmed down. He was already a Deification cultivator, so his state of mind had long been calm. Even though this matter made him angry, it only lasted for a moment.
He used his spiritual aura to lift the Five-Spirit Fruit. Under the pure spiritual aura, the fruit slowly melted and turned into a transparent essence.
He slowly lifted the essence and poured it into Mo Tiange's mouth.
The essence of the Five-Spirit Fruit entered her body and slid down along her meridians. Wherever it went, her meridians were restored and slid down to her dantian. The damaged parts were repaired little by little. In the end, it completely immersed and merged with her dantian.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhong Muling let go of her and said softly, "The Five-Spirit Body Cultivator is impervious to devil aura. With your Pure Yin body and the Five-Spirit Fruit's reconstruction of your meridians, you won't suffer from cultivation deviation in the future aside from Inner Demons during realm-breakthroughs. I've treated you fairly."
After an unknown amount of time, Mo Tiange woke up from her coma.
She had a strange dream. In the dream, she seemed to have returned to the beginning of the Primal Chaos, when heaven and earth were first created. She was surrounded by dense spiritual aura.
She greedily absorbed the spiritual aura and swallowed spiritual plants one by one. Her dantian and meridians rapidly evolved and grew, and her cultivation level increased unbelievably fast …
When she regained her senses, she saw a pool of blood in front of her. Oh, right! She was cultivating when she suddenly felt a strong spiritual aura pressure. This spiritual aura pressure almost made her lose her ability to move in an instant. She lost control of her spiritual aura and it rushed everywhere in her meridians.
She was terrified and wanted to stop cultivating, but the spiritual aura pressure pressed down on her again. Her whole body was in pain and she lost consciousness.
Mo Tiange knew this was cultivation deviation. She couldn't help but feel strange. Martial Uncle Xuanyin said she had a Pure Yin Constitution. If Yin and Yang didn't clash, it would be very difficult for her to suffer from cultivation deviation. What was this spiritual aura pressure that made her lose control of her spiritual aura without any ability to resist?
However, she immediately thought of a more important matter. If she suffered from cultivation deviation, what about her cultivation level?
She hastily sat cross-legged, but when she tried to operate her spiritual aura, she was stunned.
Not only was her cultivation level fine, but it even entered the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm!
After being stunned for a moment, Mo Tiange was ecstatic.
It had been less than a year since she entered the Foundation Building realm. Before this, her cultivation level had stagnated. Let alone advancing, even the growth of her spiritual aura was so slow that she almost couldn't feel it. But now, she actually entered the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm! How could she not be ecstatic?
Entering the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm in half a year was simply inconceivable. Even someone like Ye Jingwen who reached the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm at the age of forty could be considered a genius!
"You're awake?"
A voice came into her ears. It was Zhong Muling talking to her using his divine sense.
Mo Tiange had just entered the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm, so she knew it must be this great ancestor's doing. She felt even more grateful and answered respectfully, "Yes, Great Ancestor."
"En, how's your situation?"
"Junior has entered the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm." Although Mo Tiange had a calm temperament, she was still very happy.
Zhong Muling snorted softly then said, "That's not what I'm asking. Feel your meridians and dantian."
Mo Tiange was startled. She immediately closed her eyes and operated her spiritual aura. Meridians … She didn't notice it before, but now she realized that her meridians seemed to have become elastic. No matter how much spiritual aura she operated, she didn't feel any pain. No matter how much she operated her spiritual aura, her meridians could completely accommodate it.
As for her dantian, it seemed … no matter how much spiritual aura there was, it could accommodate it.
"Five-Spirit Fruit! Hmph!"
Zhong Muling was still a bit indignant, but he calmly said to her, "I wasn't paying attention for a moment and forgot you were cultivating and couldn't be disturbed, so I caused you to have a cultivation deviation.
I've already used the Five-Spirit Fruit to help you reconstruct your meridians, change your tendons, and cleanse your marrows. In the future, you'll never have a cultivation deviation again … Of course, that doesn't include the Inner Demon during your realm-breakthrough. "
Never have a cultivation deviation?
Mo Tiange regained her train of thought. She was even more ecstatic than before.
This was much more difficult than the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm. Never have a cultivation deviation … Didn't that mean she didn't need to worry about cultivating the Soul-Refining Art?
"Junior doesn't know how to repay Great Ancestor's kindness …"
Zhong Muling said faintly, "I'm already a Deification expert. In this human world, I'm almost like a god. Why would I expect you to repay me?
Since you're my descendant, I'm naturally willing to take care of you. "
"Yes, Junior has said too much.
Junior … will certainly cultivate diligently in the future and won't let Great Ancestor down. "
"En.
There's another matter. When you had a cultivation deviation, that boy surnamed Qin broke into the Illusory Sky Formation. He said he was looking for you. I saw he was quite courageous, so I let him stay. Do you want to meet him? "
