Chapter 188 Changes in the Spirit Wood Space
It took Xiao Lin half a day to land in a small canyon.
This small canyon is about 40 to 50 miles away from Qingzhu Peak. The key is that this small canyon is located between two small mountains, and the canyon is covered with large areas of towering ancient trees. A clear stream runs through it, which is extremely quiet and refreshing.
Xiao Lin fell in love with the scenery here at first sight. The most important thing is that this small canyon is very inconspicuous in the scope of the huge Dancao Mountain sect, and the spiritual energy is not rich, it can only be said to be very ordinary.
I am afraid that no one would have thought that someone would build a cave in such an ordinary place.
Although Xiao Lin also likes places with abundant spiritual energy, except for Qingdan Peak and the eight major peaks in Dancao Mountain, the spiritual energy in other places is mostly the same. For Xiao Lin, it doesn’t matter. He likes quietness, so naturally he chooses remote and quiet places as his first choice.
Xiao Lin looked around and made sure it was safe. Then he came to a place near the root of the mountain in the woods. There was a huge rock at the root of the mountain, which was suitable for opening a cave.
Xiao Lin gently pointed at the Seven Blades beside him, and the Seven Blades immediately turned into a green light and flew towards the rock.
......
It took Xiao Lin most of the day to dig out a corridor more than ten feet deep in the rock. At the end of the corridor, he opened up two stone rooms, one for cultivation and the other for sleeping and resting.
After entering the foundation-building period, Xiao Lin was able to completely fast. Food was dispensable, but he still couldn't give up sleeping. For a cultivator, meditating for two or three hours a day was enough to restore the damaged spirit.
But Xiao Lin had just built his foundation, and it was not easy to change his original sleeping habits. Secondly, he also enjoyed the feeling of emptying himself when sleeping, so he built a stone bed for himself.
After opening up the cave, Xiao Lin came out of the cave, carefully looked at the surrounding terrain, and then took out three palm-sized formation flags from the storage bag.
With a light wave, the three formation flags flew out in three directions, and then Xiao Lin uttered an obscure spell, and a large piece of white fog began to emerge in the entire small canyon.
In less than a cup of tea, the fog had enveloped the entire small canyon, and as Xiao Lin stopped chanting, the entire small canyon suddenly changed, the fog disappeared, and it was replaced by a huge lake.
At this time, if you look down from mid-air, there is no small canyon, it is clearly a lake of several acres.
Xiao Lin showed a satisfied look on his face. The set of fog sea and blue water formation flags given by his master was quite magical. Not only could it transform the scenery to cover the cave, but he could also sense anyone approaching the cave within a hundred feet.
Of course, this is for cultivators at the same level as him. If a cultivator above the Jindan level comes, he probably won't be able to sense it.
Returning to the stone room for cultivation, Xiao Lin sat cross-legged in the center of the stone room, looking at the stone wall in front of him, but thinking about the direction of future cultivation in his mind.
"Qingyan Baozhuan" Xiao Lin studied for a long time and knew that this "Qingyan Linghuo" was also a kind of cold flame, which was in line with the main cultivation method he chose in terms of attributes. Moreover, after cultivating Qingyan Linghuo, he could also use Qingyan Linghuo to temper Dantian mana, which would undoubtedly accelerate the improvement of his cultivation.
This is also the fundamental reason why Xiao Lin finally made up his mind to choose "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue".
In the end, Xiao Lin decided to practice "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue" first. After all, "Qingyan Baozhuan" is just a magical secret technique, and magical secret techniques usually require the support of pure mana, so through the main cultivation method, the pure mana of his own non-attribute is transformed into ice mana.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin took out the "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue" jade slip from his bag, put it in his palm, sank his spiritual consciousness into the jade slip, and concentrated on studying this technique.
......
Three years passed quickly, with the alternation of winter and winter.
Xiao Lin seemed to have disappeared from Dancao Mountain. In order to find Xiao Lin, the Lan family sent at least dozens of Qi Refining disciples to search for Xiao Lin, and several Foundation Establishment cultivators also joined the search.
After they knew that Xiao Lin had successfully established his foundation and became a disciple of Su Qingyun, this search became more obscure.
After Lan Xin knew that Xiao Lin became a disciple of Su Qingyun, he took the initiative to stop the disciples in the family who were searching for Xiao Lin's traces, and focused on searching in the sect.
Lan Xin did not want to further strain his relationship with Xiao Lin. In his opinion, although he wanted to steal Xiao Lin's foundation-building pill, he did not succeed after all, and the people of the Lan family did not chase Xiao Lin. In the end, the two sides had not really torn their faces apart.
Now that Xiao Lin had successfully built his foundation, Lan Xin thought that there was no need to be hostile to Xiao Lin. Finding a way to reconcile was the right choice.
However, what troubled him was that after building his foundation, Xiao Lin only went to Qingning Palace where Su Qingyun lived, and then he seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and there was no trace of him for several years.
In the end, Lan Xin simply gave up searching for Xiao Lin. In his opinion, his Lan family had a Jindan ancestor in charge. If the Lan family didn't cause trouble for Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin would not be idle and take the initiative to cause trouble for the Lan family.
When Xiao Lin showed up in the sect in the future, he would find a way to reconcile. Of course, Lan Xin hoped that Xiao Lin would be killed outside and never return to the sect.
But he also knew that this was impossible. As an outer sect elder, he naturally found out that the life-defining lamp that Xiao Lin placed in the sect was still good, which also meant that Xiao Lin was safe and sound, and it was more likely that he was looking for a place to practice hard.
Wang Xiangchen, the son of the Wang family who once threatened to duel with Xiao Lin on the life and death stage, no longer mentioned the duel after knowing that Xiao Lin had also successfully built his foundation like him. After all, the two of them were already nominally brothers. Once they were on the life and death stage, wouldn't their master Su Qingyun lose face? And Wang Xiangchen, as the instigator, would naturally become the target of Su Qingyun's anger.
At this moment, Xiao Lin naturally didn't know what was happening in the outside world. In the stone chamber, Xiao Lin was sitting cross-legged, with a dark green aura shrouding his body, and around him, on the ground of the stone chamber, a thick layer of ice crystals condensed.
The temperature in the entire stone chamber was also so low that it was shocking. If a mortal entered the stone chamber at this moment, he would probably turn into an ice sculpture in a few breaths.
It was unknown how long it had been, but Xiao Lin, who was sitting cross-legged, moved his eyelashes slightly. At this time, the dark green aura shrouding his body suddenly returned to Xiao Lin's body from the acupoints of his body like a hundred birds returning to their nests.
Xiao Lin also slightly opened his eyes, and two cold lights suddenly lit up the entire secret room.
Xiao Lin breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.
The first level of the "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue" was finally practiced. Now the mana in Xiao Lin's body has been converted, which is considered to be the first step of cultivation. In a sense, the first level of the "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue" is extremely critical.
Only by practicing the first level and converting the mana in the body into "Xuanqi" can this method be considered to have been practiced to the primary stage. After that, Xiao Lin can continue to practice by taking the Five Elements Spirit Pill, constantly increasing the amount of mana. When it reaches a certain level, he can then temper the Dantian mana. When he practices to the third level of the "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue", he can start the first return to the origin.
After practicing the first level of the "Xuanqi Hanyan Jue", Xiao Lin entered the initial stage of foundation building, and his cultivation was completely stabilized.
"It's time to practice the Qingyan Treasure Seal." Xiao Lin muttered to himself. After consolidating the cultivation of the initial stage of foundation building, he could start practicing the Qingyan Treasure Seal. Thinking of this, Xiao Lin meditated again and entered the spiritual wood space. The Qingyan Treasure Seal had always been hidden by Xiao Lin in the spiritual wood space.
When Xiao Lin entered the spiritual wood space, he was stunned by everything in front of him.
It turned out that the length of the spiritual wood space in front of Xiao Lin was doubled compared to before, and the area was several times larger. The various spiritual herbs that he had divided and planted now only occupied a small area around the sapling, and the large area outside was empty.
What made Xiao Lin's eyes widen even more was the sapling in the center of the spiritual wood space. It was only half a foot tall and had a tender leaf on top. Now it has grown to a full foot tall. The tender leaf on the forehead has also become two leaves.
The two young leaves were also bigger than before, and each of them had a drop of crystal clear dew on it, which was gleaming with a faint green light.
Xiao Lin came to the sapling and observed it carefully. Since he opened up this spiritual wood space, the sapling seemed to have never grown. After he broke through and entered the foundation-building stage, the spiritual wood space not only expanded several times in area.
The sapling also grew a lot, which made Xiao Lin's face reflective.
Could it be that the sapling grew with the improvement of his realm?
After thinking for a long time, Xiao Lin could only think of this reason, and in his opinion, this reason should be almost certain. After all, in the nearly ten years of his cultivation, the sapling has always maintained its original appearance without any change.
After he entered the foundation-building stage, the sapling has undergone such a huge change, and the area of the spiritual field has also increased several times. If it is not for this reason, Xiao Lin can't think of any other reason.
After entering the foundation-building period, Xiao Lin wanted to take time to reorganize the spiritual field. There was no need to continue planting the rejuvenation flowers, purple spiritual flowers, and dust-cleansing grass. However, after the spiritual field expanded several times, he changed his mind and did not plan to harvest these spiritual herbs.
It would not be too late to reorganize them after finding higher-level spiritual herbs in the future.
"Huh?" Xiao Lin suddenly exclaimed, and squatted in front of a small patch of purple spiritual flowers, with a look of surprise on his face.
Xiao Lin vaguely remembered that when he was refining the foundation-building pill three years ago, this small patch of purple spiritual flowers had just been planted, and now these purple spiritual flowers have grown to nearly three hundred years of medicinal age, and some of them have already produced clusters of fruits.
"Is it possible?" Xiao Lin's face suddenly showed surprise. In the past, he had roughly estimated that although the speed of time flow in this spiritual wood space was the same as that in the outside world, the growth rate of spiritual herbs in it could be accelerated by about forty to fifty times.
