Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 261 Tongbao Jue
A fireball as big as a head was floating in the air silently.

The fireball flickered in size and had blue flames on the surface, but it did not have any heat at all. It was extremely strange.

But Nie Zhaonan could clearly feel that the power of the Qianlan Ice Flame had obviously increased a lot.

After nodding with satisfaction, Nie Zhaonan suddenly spread out his palms and stroked them in front of him.

After a flash of green light, a small flat round tripod appeared there.

This tripod is only a few inches in size, but it has an antique charm and an extremely delicate shape and structure.

This is exactly the Xu Tian Ding that Nie Zhaonan had put away for a long time.

Looking at the tripod, Nie Zhaonan showed a pensive look on his face, but then he flicked his sleeves, and the small tripod immediately spun and flew towards the Qianlan Ice Flame.

A strange scene appeared. Not only did the Xu Tian Ding not encounter any obstruction, but it also did not produce any explosion sound. It sank silently into the Qianlan ice flame.

The two merged into one, and an ice-blue flame burned fiercely on the cauldron, while the Xutian Cauldron slowly turned in the ice flame, and there was no other movement.

A blue light flashed in Nie Zhaonan's eyes. He raised his hand and pointed solemnly at the small tripod. A white light flashed at his fingertips, and several thin spiritual threads shot out and disappeared in a flash.

In an instant, the disappeared spiritual thread reappeared in front of the Xu Tian Ding and immediately sank into the Xu Tian Ding.

After being injected with magic power, the Xutian Ding flashed with green light, and then began to grow wildly in the ice flames.

In just a breath, the small tripod, which was originally several inches high, grew to a size of more than ten feet. The patterns of flowers, birds, fish, insects, mountains, rivers, trees, etc. on the surface of the huge tripod suddenly became clearly visible.

Seeing this, Nie Zhaonan snapped his ten fingers, and strands of spiritual threads made of pure magic power kept shooting towards the giant cauldron.

With the infusion of a large amount of magic power, a buzzing sound arose in the cauldron. The insects, birds, and animals on the walls of the giant cauldron seemed to come alive after a burst of light, and they wandered around on the walls of the cauldron. It was truly amazing.

Just as the Xu Tian Ding made a buzzing sound, the originally burning blue flame suddenly turned into a tornado that shot up into the sky.

After a loud dragon roar, a blue dragon about ten feet long emerged from the wind. After shaking its head and wagging its tail, the dragon's head suddenly dived downwards, and after a flash, it disappeared directly into the lid of the cauldron.

After a while, the buzzing sound of the Xu Tian Ding became louder and louder, as if it reached a peak and then stopped abruptly.

But the changes of the Xutian Ding did not end there. Under Nie Zhaonan's gaze, ancient green characters emerged from the Ding and floated straight into the air.

After a flash of green light, three meters in the air, these ancient texts were finally arranged together as a whole, forming a strange magic scripture.

These scriptures exude a faint spiritual aura and are not long, only a thousand words or so.

"Tongbao Jue!" A delicate cry suddenly came from Nie Zhaonan's chest. It was the voice of Yin Yue, a small fox head showing there.

Just as the Xutian Ding was humming loudly, it naturally woke up the Yin Yue that Nie Zhaonan was carrying with him.

"Do you know the information about Tongbao Jue?" Nie Zhaonan looked down at the little fox on his chest.

Yin Yue looked at the scripture above, and explained slowly with a twinkling light in her eyes:

"The Tongbao Jue was created specifically for driving treasures of this level, and each Lingbao has its own Tongbao Jue, with different contents. The Jue of different Lingbao cannot be mixed. After all, each Lingbao has its own characteristics and power, and only by using the matching Jue can the Lingbao be driven."

After a pause, Yin Yue's charming and pleasant voice came out again:

"Because of the existence of Tongbao Jue, cultivators can take spiritual treasures into their bodies and cultivate them after practicing this technique. Of course, this kind of cultivation is not like cultivating one's own magic weapon, which integrates the mind and the treasure together and increases the power of the magic weapon at the same time."

"It is like a seal, hiding the spiritual treasure in the body, and using the Tongbao Jue Gongfa to influence the spirituality of the spiritual treasure. It cannot enhance the power of the spiritual treasure itself. In this way, the spirituality of the Tongtian spiritual treasure will slowly change and become consistent with the spiritual consciousness of the cultivator, so that it can be controlled as if it were an arm."

"However, when driving a spiritual treasure to fight the enemy, it relies on its own powerful power. The spiritual consciousness of the immortal cultivator only plays a supporting role. Therefore, it is not like the life magic treasure that can be taken away. On the contrary, sometimes, it can be easily taken away by others."

"This is all the information about Lingbao that I can remember now."

After saying that, Yin Yue sighed slightly. The feeling of losing her memory was really uncomfortable for her.

While Nie Zhaonan was silently memorizing and comprehending the magic formula in the air, he also took in Yin Yue's words. When he compared them with the information he knew about the spiritual treasure, they were almost the same.

"Don't worry, I believe it won't be long before you can recover all your memories." Nie Zhaonan comforted him softly.

The opening of Kunwu Mountain in Dajin is only a few decades away, and by then he will naturally help Yin Yue return to his original form.

"I have spent so many years in the Xutian Ding in a daze. There is no rush to regain my complete memory. As long as Yin Yue can stay with the master, it will be enough." Yin Yue rubbed Nie Zhaonan's neck, changed her previous confusion, and said indifferently.

Nie Zhaonan just smiled and said nothing more.

Yin Yue also stayed there quietly, watching Nie Zhaonan's actions.

With just this brief understanding, Nie Zhaonan had already gotten a general idea of ​​the Tongbao Jue for controlling the Xutian Ding. This technique looked simple, consisting of only three ordinary levels, but the profoundness and obscurity of its content was far beyond the reach of other techniques.

But this is only true for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators. Nie Zhaonan, who has practiced the Taiyi Divine Thunder Art, can comprehend it in a few days.

With his current cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage, he can practice two levels of Tong Bao Jue, but the last level requires the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation stage.

Nie Zhaonan withdrew his hand and stopped injecting magic power into the giant cauldron. The scripture immediately dissipated and disappeared.

The most important thing right now is to comprehend the Tongbao Jue and seal the Xutian Ding inside the body for cultivation.

Then Nie Zhaonan flicked his sleeves, and a silver light gushed out, sweeping up the giant cauldron.

The giant cauldron in the rosy glow shrank rapidly along with the dry blue ice flame, and returned to its original size in an instant. The dry blue ice flame also became only the size of a pigeon egg.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed the small tripod, and then with a flash of inspiration, the small tripod was put away. Nie Zhaonan opened his mouth and swallowed the dry blue ice flame back into his stomach.

After doing all this, Nie Zhaonan sat cross-legged again, slowly closed his eyes, the first level of Tongbao Jue emerged in his mind, and he began to comprehend and practice silently.

Yin Yue did not retract her head, but kept her eyes on Nie Zhaonan's cheek.

Ten days later, Nie Zhaonan came out of the secret room.

The time it took to comprehend the Tong Bao Jue was much faster than he expected. In just three days, he had thoroughly comprehended the first two levels of the Tong Bao Jue and successfully sealed the Xu Tian Ding into his body.

It is hard to say how much power the current Xu Tian Ding can exert, but the sturdiness of its body is rare in the world. Even when Nie Zhaonan slashed it with the sharp Geng Jin Shen Lei Sword, he could not leave the slightest mark on it. With this tripod in hand, Nie Zhaonan's ability to survive can be said to have increased several levels out of thin air.

In the remaining time, he used the spells provided by Yin Yue and the short blade obtained from Wei Wuya to refine the "Sensing Beads".

With this special magic weapon in hand, finding the trace of the ancient demon will be much easier.

Without alarming anyone, Nie Zhaonan left Huangfeng Valley silently.

A team of three people, lined up in a line, were advancing alone in the endless mountains.

Although there were only three people, none of them used any flying magic tools, but instead rode the wind. They were all Jindan cultivators with a high level of cultivation.

In the middle of the team was an old man wearing a Taoist robe and with a long beard.

The old man wore a green felt hat and had indelible wrinkles on his forehead that looked like they were carved by a knife. In his hand, a token-like object was floating quietly.

This object is longer than the token, and the tip is pointing in the direction the three people are heading.

The old man's name is Lu Ying, and he is a Jindan elder of the Qingxu Sect of the Yue Kingdom. The two people traveling with him are his fellow junior brothers.

One of them was named Zhou Sheng, with a square face and looked very reliable.

The last person is named Daojie. He has no black hair and a bald head, like a monk. Combined with the Taoist robe he is wearing, he looks ridiculous no matter how you look at him.

It's not his fault, he also wanted to be a "real Taoist priest", but when he was still a mortal, he couldn't make a living so he had to become a monk to make a living. He never thought that after he became a Taoist priest, he could never go back.

He had also thought deeply about this matter. Perhaps it was related to the strange fruit he had eaten. The thought of this made him even more helpless.

After all, because he had swallowed that spiritual fruit, his cultivation aptitude was much better than that of other second-spiritual-root cultivators, and the bottlenecks he encountered were also weaker. It also had an inexplicable effect, which allowed him to cultivate smoothly to his current level.

Compared with the benefits gained, the lost hair becomes insignificant.

Looking at the endless mountains, Daojie became more and more afraid. He looked at the old man in the middle and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Lu, when can we get to the ancient cave you mentioned?"

"Don't worry, don't worry. It should be here soon." Lu Ying said calmly without even turning his head. He just stared at the thing in his hand.

"Brother, you have said this at least five times, right? It's getting faster and faster. We have been flying for more than half a month and have already flown out of the Kingdom of Yue." Daojie complained.

Now they have arrived at the territory of Shayun Kingdom.

"Maybe it's really coming soon. Junior Brother Daojie, you can't be impatient in seeking opportunities. It is common to spend three to five years." Looking at this junior brother who has been practicing hard in the sect and has almost never gone out to look for opportunities, Zhou Sheng comforted him.

"Junior brother, I also know that we can't be impatient, but don't you two senior brothers know that the situation in Tiannan is very unstable right now?" Daojie glanced at the token in the old man's hand and said worriedly.

"Indeed, it seems that the ancient demon had shown its traces in this country a month ago and slaughtered a Jindan family here. By the way, a senior in the Yuanying stage also died at his hands, and I heard that even the Yuanying was eaten alive." After hearing what Daojie said, Zhou Sheng recalled the news he got from a well-informed junior brother before setting out, and felt that something was wrong.

Daojie felt more uneasy when he heard this, and even a look of fear appeared on his face.

He has the lowest cultivation level among the three and the least experience in fighting. He will definitely be the first to die if he encounters the ancient demon.

"My two junior brothers, there is no need to worry. The ancient demon will never target us. If we are lucky, he should have left this country by now. We should take advantage of the fact that all the cultivators in this country are huddled in the sect's headquarters and take away the treasures in the ancient cultivator's cave without anyone noticing." After listening to the words of his two junior brothers, Lu Ying did not waver at all and said calmly.

"Senior Brother Lu, you have already known about the ancient demon's rampage in Shayun Country!" Zhou Sheng said in surprise after hearing the meaning of Lu Ying's words.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't choose this good time to come and take the treasure. If it were any other time, as soon as we entered the country, there would be cultivators of the same level coming to keep an eye on our whereabouts. It wouldn't be as quiet as it is now." Lu Ying stroked his long beard and said quite complacently.

"This..." After hearing these very reasonable words, Zhou Sheng could no longer refute, but he looked at Lu Ying as if he was looking at a madman.

"No, we can't go on like this. I have to return to Yue State and return to Qingxu Sect." Daojie was terrified when he heard this. His bad premonition became stronger and stronger, and he even collapsed in the end. The light of escape stopped in mid-air and no longer moved forward.

"Junior Brother Daojie, you have to think carefully. When you go back, you won't get a share of the treasures." Lu Ying turned around and looked at the bald Taoist priest and said coldly.

Zhou Sheng stood aside without saying a word, but the struggle that occasionally flashed in his eyes showed that he was restless and was constantly weighing the pros and cons.

"Two senior brothers, please listen to what I have to say. Just follow me and leave quickly." Daojie suddenly looked around in panic.

Daojie's heart began to pound, and the sound was so loud that even the two people who were several feet away could hear it clearly.

"Brother Daojie, what's wrong with you? Why is your heart beating so violently?" Zhou Sheng noticed Daojie's abnormality and asked with a frown.

Although this junior brother is a little timid on weekdays and likes to stay in the sect and seldom goes out, he shouldn't be so scared. He doesn't have the bearing of a Jindan cultivator at all. He is even inferior to some ordinary people.

"To be honest with you two brothers, I have a magical power that can help me avoid danger and seek good fortune. Whenever there is danger, it will warn me, just like now, but it is never as strong as it is now." Daojie felt that he was doomed, so he told the truth.

This is the ability that the Taoist Ring gained after taking the strange spiritual fruit, which can be considered an innate magical power.

"This..." Zhou Sheng and Lu Ying looked at each other and saw the terrible speculation in each other's eyes.
