Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 138 Luo Yansha

The cave that Chen Yuan chose to build his foundation was located on the mountainside of Yunyin Peak.

Yunyin Peak is located to the south of the mountain gate. It is only a few hundred feet high and has a short shape. Although the scenery is beautiful, it seems a bit mediocre among the many majestic peaks of Lingyun Sect.

There are only two or three core disciples living on this mountain. Chen Yuan chose this cave because it is remote and quiet.

The concentration of spiritual energy in the mountains where the foundation-building cultivators live is similar, and is only at the level of micro spiritual veins, which will not have much impact on the speed of cultivation.

Chen Yuan has many secrets on his mind, so he would naturally not choose a cave in a crowded place that would attract attention.

After he left Zhenfu Pavilion, he rode on a light and came to Yunyin Peak, found his own cave, took out his identity jade card, left a mark, and activated the restriction.

The power of the restrictions in the foundation-building cultivator's cave is much stronger than that in Zhumingshan's cave, and can withstand an attack from a cultivator in the late stage of foundation-building.

Its restrictions can also block the detection of spiritual consciousness. Even a Jindan cultivator cannot detect the situation inside the cave without destroying the restrictions.

Chen Yuan was quite satisfied with this. After activating the restriction, he took a walk around the cave.

This cave was carved into the mountain wall and had a total of four stone halls. In one of the halls, there was a spirit-gathering formation engraved, which provided abundant spiritual energy and was used for cultivation.

The other four stone halls are spacious and can be used at the discretion of the cave owner.

One of the stone halls was close to the mountain wall, and its outer wall was only one foot thick.

Chen Yuan chiseled a three-foot-long hole in the wall, and the moonlight and starlight shone in obliquely through the hole, casting a white glow.

Chen Yuan took out the jade pendant and placed it under the starlight.

The jade beads emitted a faint green light, attracting the power of the stars in the sky. Silver beams of light descended from the sky and enveloped Chen Yuan.

After thirty breaths, the starlight faded away, and all the true energy in Chen Yuan's body was consumed, leaving not a drop left.

Feeling his physical body and spiritual awareness strengthened, he smiled, put away the jade pendant, and walked out of the stone hall.

From then on, he didn't have to leave the cave to draw the starlight into his body, which saved him a lot of effort and made him more concealed.

Then, Chen Yuan slightly modified the cave according to his own habits, and finally came to the training room and took out the storage bag given by Jin Luoheng.

He raised his hand and flicked it. A flash of light appeared in front of him and several objects appeared out of thin air. They were four jade bottles, a talisman, a spiritual weapon, and ten spiritual stones.

Chen Yuan first checked the spirit stone, and after making sure there was no problem, he put it into the storage bag. Then he picked up the four jade bottles and checked them one by one.

The first jade bottle contained three foundation-building pills, which were no longer useful to Chen Yuan, so he put them away.

In the other three jade bottles, there are thirty Zengyuan Pills.

Chen Yuan poured out a Zengyuan Pill, put it to his nose and sniffed it gently. He felt a rich spiritual energy rushing into his body and felt relaxed all over.

This pill could save him several months of hard training.

Three bottles of Zeng Yuan Dan are enough to raise his cultivation to the peak of the early stage of foundation building.

Chen Yuan nodded with satisfaction, put the Zengyuan Pill back into the jade bottle, put it into the storage bag, then picked up the talisman and began to examine it.

This is a mid-grade earth-based spiritual talisman, a meteorite talisman, which can condense into a meteorite as big as a house, falling from the sky to attack the opponent.

This talisman is extremely powerful and can hurt cultivators in the late stage of foundation building. However, it takes three breaths to activate and consumes a lot of mana. Moreover, once the target is selected, it cannot be changed. It has both advantages and disadvantages.

"This meteorite talisman, if used at a special moment, should be able to play a significant role..."

Chen Yuan put away the talisman and picked up the last reward, which was also the most precious item.

This is a gauze scarf about a foot long, plain white in color, thin and soft, like something worn by a wealthy lady in the mortal world.

But this inconspicuous scarf is actually a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Since this item was bestowed by the sect, it is different from ordinary spiritual tools. There is a mark of spiritual consciousness left on the gauze scarf, which details its power and characteristics.

This scarf is called "Luo Yansha". After being injected with true energy, it can be used to protect oneself.

However, its defensive capabilities are only equivalent to those of a low-grade spiritual weapon, and it is afraid of sharp objects and is restrained by flying swords.

The magic of Luo Yansha lies in its ability to conceal one's body shape and breath.

Chen Yuan is currently in the early stage of foundation building. He draped Luo Yansha over his body to conceal his figure and aura. At least a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building could see through his tracks. If Chen Yuan breaks through to the middle stage of foundation building, even a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building would not be able to see through Chen Yuan's disguise.

If Chen Yuan cultivated to the peak of foundation building and then injected true essence into Luo Yan's body, he might even be able to deceive the cultivator in the early stage of Jindan.

However, Luo Yansha is only a top-grade spiritual weapon after all, so whether it can succeed depends on luck.

Usually, as long as a Jindan cultivator spreads out his spiritual sense, he can see through the disguise.

Moreover, Luo Yansha has a disadvantage, that is, after putting it on, one cannot fly or perform light body techniques, otherwise the disguise will be exposed immediately.

After Chen Yuan understood the characteristics of Luo Yansha, he was extremely satisfied.

This spiritual weapon is actually quite useless among the top-grade spiritual weapons. Its greatest function is to conceal one's body shape and aura, and ordinary cultivators rarely use it.

If you are strong enough, you can take action directly without the cover of Luo Yansha.

People who are not strong enough, after putting on the Luo Yansha, cannot fly or perform the art of lightness. Their movement speed is extremely slow and they can be easily found.

This is also the reason why Lingyun Sect took it out as a reward.

Even if Luo Yansha is useless, it is still a top-grade spiritual weapon. Giving it out as a reward can motivate disciples to work hard to collect spiritual herbs.

This move was indeed effective. Many elite disciples signed up for this trip to the secret realm just for this top-grade spiritual weapon.

But if they finally get this spiritual weapon, they probably won't be so satisfied.

Chen Yuan is different. He practices both magic and body, has a strong body, and has strange gloves that can resist magic weapons. He is not afraid of attacks from opponents.

Luo Yansha can conceal his body shape and breath, and can help him enter the place where monsters gather and find the descendants of true spirits, which is of great use.

However, Chen Yuan's true energy was exhausted at this time, and he was unable to refine Luo Yansha, so he put it away first.

Afterwards, he took out the Foundation Establishment Pill Formula and Lingzhu Sword given by Jin Luoheng and examined them.

Although the Lingzhu Sword is only a low-grade spiritual weapon, it is made of hundred-year-old green bamboo and has a tough texture. If it is damaged, it can repair itself, which is extremely worry-free.

When used with full strength, the Spirit Bamboo Sword can transform into a bamboo forest to attack the opponent. Its power is extraordinary, comparable to a mid-grade spiritual weapon. Chen Yuanke can use it until the middle stage of foundation building without being a hindrance.

If this sword was not extraordinary, Jin Luoheng would not have left such an inferior spiritual weapon in his storage bag.

In that jade slip, there were five recipes for Foundation Establishment elixirs, three of which were cultivation elixirs, and the other two were Qimen elixirs.

Among these three types of cultivation elixirs, one is suitable for cultivators in the late stage of foundation building, and two are suitable for cultivators in the middle and early stages of foundation building.

According to the recipe, Chen Yuan took out the hundred-year-old spiritual herbs given by Jin Luoheng and gathered enough spiritual herbs to refine three batches of "Nanguang Pills".

This pill can help cultivators in the early and middle stages of foundation building to increase their cultivation, and its medicinal power is stronger than that of Zengyuan Pill.

The other four kinds of elixirs all require three hundred year old spiritual herbs, but Chen Yuan doesn't have a single three hundred year old spiritual herb in his hand, so he can't refine them.

He put away the jade slips and spiritual herbs, and finally took out the many storage bags he brought out from the secret realm and sorted them out carefully.

He harvested a large number of monster materials in the secret realm, and was ready to find a suitable opportunity to sell them all in exchange for spiritual herbs for making elixirs.

In addition, when Chen Yuan intercepted and killed the disciples of Zi Yang Sect, he looked down on the magic weapons in their hands and distributed them all to disciples of various sects.

But he still has accumulated more than a dozen magical weapons in his hands, most of which are top-grade magical weapons, and a small number of them are high-grade magical weapons.

These magical weapons are used by elite disciples of various sects and are of excellent quality. Although Chen Yuan cannot use them, he can still sell them for a good price.

Finally, there are the spirit stones, talismans, elixirs and other miscellaneous items obtained from the disciples of various sects, which together are worth two thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Including monster materials and various magical instruments, Chen Yuan has harvested at least tens of thousands of spirit stones during his ten-year journey in the secret realm.

Even among cultivators in the late stage of foundation building, his wealth can be considered enormous.

Moreover, he still had eight Foundation Establishment Pills in his hand. If they were placed in the market, one pill could be sold for at least two thousand spirit stones, and would be priceless.

With these things, Chen Yuan can practice all the way to the middle stage of foundation building without worrying about resources.

All he lacks now is time.
