Chapter 113: Moon-Rolling Pendant Advanced Level (1/2)
A long sigh echoed in the hall for a long time.
Elder Shen Ren's face was filled with sorrow, as if he had aged several decades in an instant, and he was half hunched, as if all his strength had been drained away.
"Give up, we have been tricked by Shi Weihan." After a long time, Elder Shen Ren looked up at Ren Liang and said helplessly.
Ren Liang seemed to want to refute, but when he thought of the dozens of dead disciples, he knew that even if he sent more disciples, it would be useless, and they would just go to die. His own grandson, whose strength was extremely strong in the Qi Refining Stage, was still killed by Lin Mu.
Now that Lin Mu has obtained the Cloud-Stepping Boots, his speed is not inferior to that of a cultivator in the Spiritual Silence Stage. As long as he is determined to escape, few people can catch him.
According to the report from his disciples, in addition to his extremely fast flying speed, Lin Mu seems to have mastered some unknown escape technique, which can disappear from the original place without anyone noticing, making it impossible to catch up.
This escape technique can even avoid the spiritual lock of the spiritual consciousness of the spiritual silencing cultivators. After it is used, it is impossible to find and track it. This is why everyone is helpless.
Ren Liang is sure that Lin Mu's escape technique must have been taught by Shi Weihan. Lin Mu was able to return safely from the Fire Dragon Valley. Whether it is his qualifications or his character, he is definitely not bad. Shi Weihan values interests so much that he will naturally not let Lin Mu die easily.
Ren Liang suddenly remembered why Shi Weihan had to force him to agree not to let the Jindan cultivators in the sect take action. It seems that Lin Mu's escape technique can avoid cultivators below the Jindan stage, but cannot avoid Jindan cultivators.
At the beginning, he was too confident and agreed to not let the Jindan cultivators in the sect chase Lin Mu.
Now it seems that he was fooled by Shi Weihan!
If Shi Weihan, who is far away in Qianyu Sword Sect, knew that Ren Liang had such a guess, he would not know what he would think. After a series of coincidences, in Ren Liang's view, this was all the result of Shi Weihan's calculations.
Ren Liang's expression changed several times, and then he nodded heavily and said, "Call all the disciples back. We lost this game. The pain of losing my relatives made me make the wrong decision. Those dozens of disciples died unclearly, which is my fault."
Elder Shen Ren hurriedly comforted him, "Master, you don't have to blame yourself so much. It's not too late to react now. Qianyu Sword Sect is eyeing us covetously. Our Yuling Sect returned empty-handed in the Fire Dragon Valley. The Fire Dragon Grass is extremely scarce. There are not many foundation-building pills in the pill formula. We need to find another way out."
Ren Liang nodded and said, "The foundation-building pill can still last for a while. We need to think about it in the long run. If it doesn't work, we will buy it at a high price with spirit stones."
Elder Shen Ren nodded, and the two began to discuss the specific matters.
...
Qianyu Sword Sect, Yunxia Peak, Shi Weihan Cave.
Shi Weihan and the four elders sat around the table, each with a cup of light tea in front of them. The five of them sipped lightly and were at ease.
Elder Luo Yan took a sip of tea and smiled: "The Yuling Sect has withdrawn the disciples who were chasing Lin Mu, and Lin Mu is safe and sound."
Shi Weihan also smiled and said: "Lin Mu was lucky and escaped. Of course, his strength is not bad. I heard that he killed many Yuling Sect disciples, including a foundation-building disciple."
Elder Luo Yan smiled: "That's not all. I heard that Shen Ren's cousin's grandson also died at Lin Mu's hands. At the beginning, we were almost driven to poverty by Shen Ren's scheme and our sect was extinct. Now we can get rid of our anger."
Shi Wei Han nodded: "Although this happened more than a hundred years ago, I still feel uneasy and have never forgotten it."
Elder Liang Zheng beside him smiled and said: "Don't mention the past. Who hasn't been young? If we hadn't experienced Shen Ren's training, how could we be where we are today?"
Several elders nodded, but Elder Huiwen, who was sitting next to Elder Luo Yan, said: "Although Lin Mu did a good job this time and didn't suffer any loss, the mortals in Yanman City suffered a lot. Many people were killed by the disciples of Yuling Sect."
Shi Weihan said indifferently: "Some mortals are just , why should we take it to heart. "
Elder Huiwen said patiently: "I am afraid that these mortals will complain and have prejudices against the sect, which is not conducive to the future of the sect."
Shi Weihan nodded, then smiled and said: "This is easy to do. You go to Yanman City again to cast the "Forbidden Rain Spell" so that it will not rain there for three years. After three years of drought, the local people must be starving and unable to extricate themselves. When you go to make rain again and remove the "Forbidden Rain Spell", those mortals will be grateful and their complaints will naturally be resolved. "
Elder Huiwen hesitated for a while and said: "But A few years ago, we had caused a three-year drought in Yanman City. If it happens again, I'm afraid it will hurt its roots."
Elder Luo Yan also felt that it was not appropriate: "Indeed. Nine years ago, the "Forbidden Rain Curse" was set in Yanman City, and there was a three-year drought. Six years ago, I went to Yanman City to give rain and accept Lin Mu. Now, less than ten years later, there is another drought there. I'm afraid it's a bit inappropriate."
Shi Weihan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Suffering creates talents. If there was no drought back then, there would be no Lin Mu today. Let's do it this way."
As the head of a sect, no one refuted Shi Weihan's words.
Elder Huiwen had to nod and said, "I will leave tomorrow."
Shi Weihan smiled and teased Elder Huiwen, "Don't be unhappy, this is a good job. If you can accept a disciple like Lin Mu like Senior Brother Luo Yan, you will make a fortune. In times of crisis, if you lend a helping hand to others, they will be extremely grateful and loyal to you. The death of some mortals in exchange for a potential disciple is still a good deal."
Several elders smiled faintly, only Fairy Han Bing was as cold as usual, and did not react to this.
...
Lin Mu stepped on the cloud boots, and his figure was like a meteor, rushing to the Fire Dragon Valley.
Lin Mu has been flying like this for two months.
During these two months, except for resting, Lin Mu was on the road. But after two months of flying, Lin Mu found that he had not yet traveled half of the journey.
After reading "Wu Ya Zi's Interesting Stories", Lin Mu thought that Tian Xiaojie was just a small world.
But now, he realized how wrong he was.
After flying for two months, he didn't even fly from the Qianyu Sword Sect to the Fire Dragon Valley. The area occupied by the Qianyu Sword Sect is not the top one among the hundreds of sects in the Tianxiao Realm. The area of the Wushuang Sword Sect is at least several times wider than that of the Qianyu Sword Sect.
Only when you walk through it yourself, you will know how vast this world is.
Although Lin Mu was extremely tired during the two months, he also had many surprises.
The greatest joy is that the Xuanyue Pendant has been upgraded again after three years.
The color of the jade pendant itself has changed from the original dark green to the current light blue.
Apart from these surface changes, what makes Lin Mu most happy is its inner nature.
The changes in the Xuanyue space are very huge.
The original six acres of spiritual fields have doubled to twelve acres. Lin Mu is now standing in the spiritual field and feels that the Xuanyue space is extremely vast. His mood has also become open, including his ambition.
The changes in the spiritual field are not only reflected in the area, but also in the grade. The spiritual field has changed from the original third-grade spiritual field to the current fourth-grade spiritual field.
The higher the grade of the spiritual field, the better the medicinal effect of the spiritual medicine planted.
If the third-grade spiritual grass is planted in the fourth-grade spiritual field, the growth rate of the spiritual grass will also be faster than before. For example, the spiritual grass that originally took three years to mature may now only take two years. If the time in the Xuanyue space is doubled, it is not impossible to plant high-grade spiritual medicines in batches.
You must know that the higher the cultivation level of the cultivator, the higher the grade of the elixir required, and the grade of the spiritual herbs and medicines required for refining the elixir is naturally higher. It’s just that the maturity period of high-grade spiritual herbs and medicines is extremely long. Ordinary third-grade spiritual herbs take three to five years to mature, and rare third-grade spiritual herbs like fire dragon grass take at least ten years to mature. The maturity period of fourth-grade spiritual herbs is even longer, and the least takes more than ten years. The general ones take twenty to thirty years to mature, and the rare ones may take about fifty years to mature.
The Soul Gathering Pill is only a first-grade pill. After building the foundation, Lin Mu can no longer take the Soul Gathering Pill for cultivation. At least he has to take the second-grade Soul Returning Pill. After the Soul Quiet Period, he has to take the corresponding third-grade pill.
The high-level spiritual herbs needed to refine high-level pills have a very long maturity period. If Lin Mu wants to do it like refining the Soul Gathering Pill in batches, it is probably impossible.
Even if he has the Xuanyue Space, if he doesn't use it well, he will probably run out of pills.
Especially after his parents and Shitou are around, the demand for pills is even greater.
But this is a matter for the future after all. Now Lin Mu still has enough Soul Gathering Pills.
More than two months have passed outside, and his parents and Shitou have been practicing for more than four months in the Xuanyue Space.
In these four months, the three of them have consumed about a thousand bottles of Soul Gathering Pills, which is more than twice what Lin's father and mother consumed in the previous six months.
As their cultivation has increased, Lin's father and mother have an increasing demand for Soul Gathering Pills. In the past two months, Lin's father and mother alone consumed 800 bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills, while Shitou only used 200 bottles.
The huge effort was rewarded with a rich return.
Lin's father and mother's cultivation level increased rapidly. In just over four months, their cultivation level advanced from the original peak of the third level of Qi Refining to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
This was not a big surprise. The biggest surprise came from Shitou.
As a four-element spiritual root, Shitou's aptitude was much higher than Lin's father and mother. Although you only took 200 bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills, your cultivation speed was not slow at all. Now you have just advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining. It won't be long before your cultivation level will surpass Lin's father and mother.
Lin Mu knew that the reason why Shitou advanced so quickly was not only because of hard work and pills, but also because of another very important point.
That was the spiritual energy in the Xuanyue Space. After the advancement, the spiritual energy in the Xuanyue Space was more abundant, far exceeding the West Peak where Lin Mu originally lived.
Lin's father and mother had no spiritual roots and could only rely on pills to cultivate. The speed at which they absorbed the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was extremely slow.
But Shitou is different. Shitou is a person with spiritual roots. His aptitude is even better than Lin Mu's. He is also sensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. When he circulates his energy, he can also absorb the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth. Naturally, his speed is much faster than his parents.
These happy events have added a lot of fun to Lin Mu's boring life on the road.
The six acres of spiritual herbs originally planted in the Xuanyue Space were all harvested. Among them, the Seven Star Grass had the most harvest, no less than thousands of plants. The other dozen or so second-grade spiritual herbs also had a considerable harvest.
Seven Star Grass is the main material for making Seven Star Paper and is extremely valuable. Some of the other dozen or so second-grade spiritual herbs are even the main ingredients for refining Guiling Pill.
After building the foundation, if Lin Mu wants to quickly improve his cultivation, he can only rely on Guiling Pill.
Now that the twelve acres of spiritual fields are all vacant, Lin Mu did not immediately plant those second-grade spiritual herbs to prepare for refining Guiling Pill in the future, but handed all the spiritual fields to his father to take care of, and let him plant all the seven or eight spiritual herbs for refining Juling Pill.
In two months, the three of them used more than a thousand bottles of Juling Pill, which was too fast. Lin Mu had to prepare in advance and continue to plant first-grade spiritual herbs to prepare for refining more Juling Pill.
Lin's father has been farming for decades and has a lot of experience in planting.
Learning to plant spiritual herbs is very easy.
After Lin Mu gave a little advice, Lin's father understood it happily. After turning the land with a spirit hoe, he sowed the seeds and planted all the twelve acres of spiritual fields.
After his father finished planting, Lin Mu performed the "Bi Shui Jue" to rain on the spiritual fields. Lin Mu is now far better than before in terms of cultivation and magic. It was extremely easy for him to rain on the twelve acres of spiritual fields.
After the spiritual fields were planted, Lin Mu exited the Xuanyue Space and continued to fly forward.
It was not until he came to a place where shops were lined up and cultivators gathered that Lin Mu descended and walked inside.
After observing for a while, Lin Mu nodded secretly, as if he understood where this was.
This seemed to be a market place, dedicated to low-level cultivators for trading. Most of the cultivators coming and going were disciples in the Qi Refining Stage or the Foundation Establishment Stage, and disciples in the Spiritual Silence Stage were very rare.
Lin Mu's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that he had a lot of useless things, but he could trade them here in exchange for some useful things.
Lin Mu wanted to buy a wood-type medium-grade magic weapon the most.
Four of the Five Elements Rings have now advanced to the level of medium-grade magic weapons, and only the wood element is still a low-grade magic weapon.
In this way, the Five Elements Ring is not a complete medium-grade magic weapon, and Lin Mu cannot use many of its magical uses.
If he could buy a wood-type medium-grade magic weapon here, Lin Mu would rather pay an extra thousand low-grade spirit stones.
But he didn't know if he could get what he wanted.
