Chapter 153 Seven Ancient Sects
The characters on the Qingyan Treasure Seal are an obscure ancient seal. Xiao Lin can only recognize 30% to 40% of the characters. He doesn't know most of them, which makes him feel helpless.
There is no way. Although he has learned characters from the declining gentry in the village for two years, he has no problem reading ordinary books, but the characters on the Qingyan Treasure Seal are relatively obscure and difficult to understand. With Xiao Lin's level, he can only barely understand the general idea.
However, from this general idea, he understands that the Qingyan Treasure Seal seems to record a method of cultivating Qingyan Spirit Fire. After successful cultivation, not only can the Qingyan Spirit Fire be attached to the magic weapon to increase the attack power.
It can also be integrated into the spells of thunder and fire attributes to multiply the power of the spells. After understanding this, Xiao Lin couldn't help showing an ecstatic expression on his calm face.
Multiplying the power of spells of thunder and fire attributes, this ability alone is enough to be called abnormal.
"Is this the legendary secret technique?" In Xiao Lin's opinion, the cultivation method of the Qingyan Spirit Fire recorded in the Qingyan Treasure Seal cannot be regarded as a main cultivation method, but only as an auxiliary technique.
When wandering around Xueling Immortal City, he had heard some Qi Refining cultivators mention that cultivators can improve their combat power through some special methods, and these auxiliary methods are also called secret techniques.
There are some secret techniques inherited in the five major sects, but even for the disciples of the five major sects, it is very difficult to be allowed to practice these secret techniques. It is rumored that only a few true disciples and sect leaders can be allowed to practice.
As for how to obtain the qualifications, Xiao Lin did not join the five major sects, so naturally he could not know, but Xiao Lin knew very well that if this Qingyan Treasure Seal was really a secret technique practice method, then he was really lucky.
The preciousness of secret arts is far greater than that of spiritual tools. Even if ordinary cultivators obtain a method of practicing a secret art, they will certainly hide it like a treasure, and will use it as a trump card.
Xiao Lin suddenly thought of the white-robed woman who still looked unwilling to give up even though she got the Hanxuan Silver Light Mirror. Thinking of this, Xiao Lin's heart moved. Could it be that the white-robed woman knew that there was this secret art in Fengbo Water Mansion?
Or even that the white-robed woman came for this secret art? This made Xiao Lin feel super happy. If this is true, think about the white-robed woman who suppressed her cultivation for several years for this secret art.
After careful planning, he got ahead of others, which made him feel very happy. At the same time, he was secretly grateful to Wan Huacai. Even Huo Jun's impression of him improved greatly in Xiao Lin's eyes. After all, if it weren't for Huo Jun,
It was impossible for him to get the wooden token from Wan Huacai, and it was impossible for him to enter Fengbo Water Palace before the white-robed woman by chance. All this seemed to be logical, but it was not easy to put it together.
This made Xiao Lin feel a little complacent. It seemed that he was quite lucky.
However, Xiao Lin thought of the central pillar of the three short and thick pillars in the Fengbo Water Palace. It was empty. Could it be that the treasure on it had been taken away by the predecessors? The Qingyan Treasure Seal next to the stone pillar was already so precious.
The things on the central stone pillar were probably three times more precious, which made Xiao Lin secretly say a few times that it was a pity.
However, Xiao Lin soon recovered his mentality. He was very satisfied to get the Qingyan Treasure Seal, a secret method for practicing the secret art. It was impossible for him to get all the benefits.
However, what made Xiao Lin a little regretful was that the secret art on the Qingyan Treasure Seal could only be practiced after the foundation was established. With the mana and physical strength of the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, they could not withstand the scorching power of the condensed Qingyan Spirit Fire.
However, Xiao Lin was not in a hurry. Now that the Purple Spirit Flower was in hand, as long as he could enter one of the five major sects and find a way to get a higher-level elixir recipe, he might be able to enter the foundation-building stage after concentrating on cultivation.
As for the problem of not being able to understand the Blue Flame Treasure Seal, as long as he could enter one of the five major sects, it would not be a problem. After thinking through all this, Xiao Lin carefully put the Blue Flame Treasure Seal back into the jade box, pasted the Soul Sealing Talisman on it, and put it into the storage bag.
He placed the storage bag next to the sapling, covered it with soil, and then after a little thought, stretched out his fingers and flicked the tender leaves on the top of the sapling. Then Xiao Lin's eyes went dark, and when he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the belly of the mountain again.
After a little hesitation, Xiao Lin took out a modified version of the Soul-Enriching Pill from the storage bag, put it in his mouth, and then sat cross-legged and began to practice the Dry Water Sutra.
On the third floor of the underground cave, on the third day of Xiao Lin's retreat, Fengbo Water Palace sank into Tianshui Lake again and was completely sealed off. The news that there were a large number of purple spirit flowers in Fengbo Water Palace also spread on the third floor of the underground cave.
For a while, a fierce fight broke out on the third floor of the underground cave. Some of the cultivators who had obtained the purple spirit flowers chose to hide in a secret place like Xiao Lin, but most of them had no time to hide and were hunted down by the cultivators who did not get the purple spirit flowers.
After the cultivator who didn't get the purple spirit flower killed the cultivator who got the purple spirit flower, he was chased by other cultivators. As the fighting escalated, many cultivators didn't care whether they got the purple spirit flower or not after they met other cultivators.
Anyway, as long as they met, they would start fighting. After all, even if the other party got the purple spirit flower, they would deny it. Instead of doing that, it would be safer to check the storage bag in person after killing them.
So the fierce fighting was staged in every place on the third floor of the cave. As time went by, many cultivators who were originally blocked by monsters on the second floor of the cave also entered the third floor of the cave, and these cultivators who had just entered the third floor of the cave.
They were already full of anger on the second floor of the cave. Now that they entered the third floor, they naturally knew that if they searched step by step as usual, they would definitely not be able to drink soup, so they also joined the army of fighting, hoping to get the purple spirit flower from the other cultivators by killing them.
This method is the most reliable method they can think of. In fact, it is true. Many powerful cultivators, after killing several cultivators, did find the purple spirit flower unexpectedly in their storage bags.
Once they get rid of others' pursuit, they will choose to hide.
But there are also some unlucky ones who were dug out even though they hid, and a fight is inevitable.
For a time, the third floor of the cave was in turmoil, and the scene of fighting could be seen almost everywhere. What kind of robbery, sneak attack, poison and club, basically everything that cultivators can think of is used.
Every day, the number of cultivators who die on the third floor of the cave is more than a hundred, which is extremely tragic.
......
And in the vast snowfield, above the valley at the entrance of the cave, five Jindan ancestors were sitting cross-legged in the air. Their figures seemed to be integrated with the world. No matter how fierce the wind and snow were, they were unmoved.
Suddenly, the white-faced Jindan ancestor surnamed Gu from Tianyun Pavilion opened his eyes, with a surprised expression on his face. The star ring on his wrist flashed slightly, and a palm-sized dark green mirror appeared in his palm.
He stared at the dark green mirror for a long time.
And several Jindan ancestors not far from him also opened their eyes. Shangguan Jinluan saw the white-faced monk surnamed Gu's expression, and after a moment of hesitation, his expression changed.
"Brother Gu, did Miss Lin from your Tianyun Pavilion really open the Fengbo Water Palace?"
Hearing the words Fengbo Water Palace, the other three people changed color, and the old man surnamed Wu from Dancao Mountain blurted out: "Several years ago, I heard that your Tianyun Pavilion seemed to be very interested in the Fengbo Water Palace in this cave, and Miss Lin even suppressed her cultivation just to enter this cave."
"Miss Lin is the only one with a natural spiritual root in our Tianlu Mountain Range. If she hadn't suppressed her cultivation, she would probably be at least in the middle and late stages of foundation building. Could it be that she really opened the restriction of Fengbo Water Palace and succeeded in taking the treasure?"
The four people looked at the white-faced cultivator surnamed Gu in unison. Upon hearing this, the white-faced cultivator surnamed Gu's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Brother Gu, although there is competition among the five major sects in our Tianlu Mountains, we are all of the same blood after all. Otherwise, any of our sects alone would not be able to survive in this southern region. You should know that Guxuan Sect, one of the seven ancient sects in the southern region, has always been eyeing our Tianlu Mountains. After a war a thousand years ago, I heard that Guxuan Sect has begun to make moves again in the past hundred years."
"Brother Gu will not tear his face with the other four sects for a small Fengbo Water Mansion Secret Realm, right? Once there is a rift between the five major sects, even if Brother Gu has extraordinary combat power, your Tianyun Pavilion's Futian Patriarch will never let Brother Gu go."
The words of the Fairy Liu of Qianling Mountain immediately made the white-faced cultivator surnamed Gu look uncertain. After hearing the four words of Futian Patriarch, his face changed and he sighed deeply.
He said, "Fairy Liu is really sharp-tongued, and she deserves the reputation of Ice Tongue Fairy. Since Fairy Liu has said this, it would be too tactless for Gu to conceal it. Besides, Gu cannot afford the crime of destroying the unity of the five major sects."
After a pause, the white-faced monk surnamed Gu continued, "Indeed, thirty years ago, Gu accidentally got a map, which recorded the location of the Fengbo Water Palace in this cave and the method to remove the lock water array."
"However, in order to study the origin of Fengbo Water Palace and the method to break the lock water array, Gu spent It took more than 20 years, until a few years ago, Gu finally understood the origin of this Fengbo Water Palace and mastered the method to break the water lock array. "
Speaking of this, the white-faced monk surnamed Gu looked at the four people and found that all of them looked like they were listening carefully. He couldn't help but sighed in his heart and continued: "The true origin of this cave is not mentioned in the map, but its origin is definitely extraordinary."
"Because it is recorded in the map that this Fengbo Water Palace is just the cultivation cave of the youngest disciple of the cave owner, and this youngest disciple is the Fengbo ancestor ten thousand years ago. "
"Ancestor Fengbo? The only Ancestor Fengbo who has cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage in the Tianlu cultivation world in the past ten thousand years?" Hearing the four words "Ancestor Fengbo", the other four people's faces changed drastically, and the old monster Zhen even exclaimed.
"If not him, who else could be the Ancestor Fengbo?" The white-faced cultivator surnamed Gu said reluctantly.
Upon hearing this, the other four people took a breath of cold air, and their eyes were also hot.
They knew very well what the late Nascent Soul stage meant. The five major sects in the Tianlu Mountains had occupied this place for thousands of years. It was rumored that before them, there was only one giant sect called Kuihan Sect in the Tianlu Mountains.
Speaking of this Kuihan Sect, in terms of strength, it is probably not inferior to the Guxuan Sect that was eyeing their five major sects. It was once prosperous, but ten thousand years ago, the Kuihan Sect disappeared overnight, and even the inheritance was not passed down.
The five major sects also rose to prominence after this. As later sects, the five major sects also investigated the demise of the Kuihan Sect for a long time, but in the end they all returned empty-handed.
