Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 304 Weird Rules and Reminders

With curiosity in mind, Shang Lu used the charm and eloquence gained from eating the beast meat to get closer to Wei Xuan in just a few words.

Although he was not yet regarded as a close friend by Wei Xuan, they became much more familiar with each other.

At this moment, Shang Lu finally spoke and asked about the doubts in his heart.

"Brother Wei, from what you said, it seems that you are envious of Brother Wang for going to the Xingshan front? Are you so eager to kill the enemy and gain merit?"

Wei Xuan really admitted: "Yes, I am indeed very envious of Junior Brother Wang. As long as he can come back alive from Xingshan this time, his cultivation will be able to break through to the Zhoutian realm! How can I not be envious?"

"Why is that?" Shang Lu was increasingly puzzled. "Going to Xingshan can lead to a breakthrough in one's cultivation? Could it be that a new secret realm has been created there?"

If there really is a secret realm that can allow people to break through their cultivation, then all the cultivators in the world would gather in Xingshan and fight for entry into the secret realm, right?
"You do not know?"

Wei Xuan turned around and glanced at Shang Lu, his eyes full of surprise.

Shang Lu spread his hands on the crane's back and said, "I only heard about the conflict in Lianxing Mountain from you, Senior Brother Wei. How could I know about this?"

Wei Xuan raised his hand and slapped his forehead: "It's my fault. I forgot that you were out on errands these days and were not in the Witch Academy."

Then he told Shang Lu: "The court and the Witch Academy attach great importance to the conflict in Xingshan, and have specially offered a generous reward! Of course, you don't have to regret it, because it's not your turn. The court and the Witch Academy stipulate that wizards who can go to Xingshan must have a minimum cultivation level of Qi Refining!"

He began to explain the rewards in detail: "For wizards in the Refining Qi Realm, the reward is a Qi Xuan Dan. For wizards in the Zhoutian Realm, the reward is Sanbao Pills. If lecturers and doctors in the Tongtian Realm go, it seems that they will be rewarded with Zhumai Powder or something. Anyway, they are all good things..."

No wonder Wei Xuan was envious.

After hearing the rewards offered by the imperial court and the Witch Academy, Shang Lu understood everything.

The efficacy of Sanbao Pills and Zhumai Powder is unclear.

But he had heard Wang Chao mention Qixuan Dan more than once.

Wang Chao's cultivation had reached the peak of Qi Refining several years ago, and has been stuck at this level ever since without any breakthrough.

It’s not that he doesn’t try.

But after entering the innate realm, every major breakthrough in realm requires not only sufficient cultivation but also the use of spiritual treasures as a guide.

The catastrophe that occurred thousands of years ago not only caused the qi sea of ​​all living beings in the world to become riddled with holes, but also made it like a colander.

It also destroys the possibility for sentient beings to practice deeply and become immortals.

Therefore, every time you make a breakthrough in a major realm, you need to use spiritual treasures to repair the corresponding damaged parts.

Otherwise, no matter how much spiritual energy you accumulate, it will be useless.

The spiritual treasure needed for a breakthrough might be some kind of elixir, such as Qixuandan.

It could also be the inner elixir of some exotic beast, or some rare elixir.

Before, Qiu Haishan raised dragons in the secret realm of Yunhua Mountain in order to swallow the dragon pearl after raising it. With the help of the power contained in the dragon pearl, he could repair the damaged parts of his body, push his essence to complete the circulation of the great heaven, allow his cultivation to break through to the Tongtian realm, and then glimpse the door to heaven and earth.

Ever since he reached the peak of Qi training, Wang Chao has been accumulating contributions, waiting to exchange them for Qi Xuan Dan.

However, the number of Qixuan Dan is limited and the demand exceeds the supply, resulting in a very high price. The contributions Wang Chao has accumulated over several years are still not enough to exchange for them.

There are many people in the Witch Academy who are in similar situations to Wang Chao.

And now, you can get Qixuan Dan by going to Xingshan.

In the Witch Academy, anyone who is qualified to go there does not want to miss such a rare opportunity.

Only a few people who had already prepared Qi Xuan Dan at home remained indifferent.

Although Xingshan is very dangerous, the path of cultivation is full of dangers and hardships.

If you are afraid of danger, why would you cultivate immortality? Why would you seek immortality?
If the number of people assigned to Xingshan from each witch academy was not limited, Shang Lu might not be able to see many brothers and teachers who had reached the great success of Qi training when he returned to the witch academy.

Wei Xuan told Shang Lu that because there were too many people who signed up, it was the chief priest who made the final decision and only selected a group of people to go.

Those who were not chosen were naturally envious and jealous, just like Wei Xuan.

After figuring out the whole story, Shang Lu took out the Witch Academy Jade Card and sent a message to Wang Chao.

It was both a congratulation and a reminder for Wang Chao to be careful when he arrived at the Xingshan front line.

The wizards of Chu are not easy to deal with.

After sending the message, Shang Lu glanced at the information in the errand column again and asked in confusion: "Hey, Senior Brother Wei, why didn't I see anything about sending people to Xingshan in the errand column of the Wu Academy Jade Card?"

“This matter was not included in the list of tasks.

The imperial envoy from the court was urging them to hurry up, and Wu Yuan was also afraid that those who were out on business would see this news and drop their work and run back without caring about anything. Wouldn't that cause chaos?

So, only the teachers and students in the Witch Academy were notified to sign up."

"With this arrangement, aren't you afraid that the people who are out on errands will protest when they return?"

"What's there to be dissatisfied about? Not being in the Witch Academy means you have no chance of getting this job. If you have no chance, you won't be chosen even if you try your best."

At this point, Wei Xuan sighed, "When Junior Brother Wang first entered the Witch Academy, he caught the eye of the chief priest because of his great luck, so it's no surprise that he was chosen.

Speaking of which, several of the people who were chosen to go to Xingshan this time are well-known for their good fortune.

So, there is a reason why we were not selected.

In spiritual practice, in addition to understanding and hard work, opportunity is also very important. "

Because of a great opportunity, he caught the eye of the chief priest?
Shang Lu suddenly remembered that he had heard similar words from Jiang Cai and others.

It is said that Jijiu likes people with great connections the most.

Not surprising.

The chief priest of the Baiyi County Witch Court is also a member of the Feng family.

The Feng family has a special skill of creating fortune. As long as they "invest" in others, they can get corresponding returns after their cultivation level improves or they make breakthroughs.

With such a skill, Jijiu naturally likes students with high comprehension, good opportunities and fast practice.

The better these students grow, the more benefits he will get.

As they were talking, the crane carried the two people into the inner mountain and flew directly to the area among the mountains where the fog was the thickest and densest.

Shang Lu once heard Wang Chao mention that the several areas inside the inner mountains that were shrouded in mountain fog were the core areas of the secret realm back then.

Although the secret realm has long been exhausted, there are still many good things preserved in these core areas.

While Shang Lu was thinking, the crane had already dived into the mountain fog.

The thick mountain fog instantly obscured his vision.

Even though Shanglu was blessed by the Liver God and his eyesight was greatly improved, he could only barely see what was happening nearby.

Fortunately, the cranes ridden by Shang Lu and Wei Xuan looked like experienced cranes that knew the way in the mountain fog.

Even though they couldn't see the direction clearly, it didn't affect their flying speed at all.

Shanglu is no stranger to this kind of mountain fog.

The secret realm of Yunhua Mountain was also shrouded in similar mountain fog.

Is it possible that mountain fog is also a standard feature of secret places?

Suddenly, Shanglu, who was in the mountain fog, felt the hairs on his back stand up.

His intuition told him that in the thick mountain fog, there were pairs of eyes staring at him.

Shang Lu immediately reached for his waist.

Wei Xuan's voice came from the mountain fog at this time: "Don't be nervous, you are allowed to enter, and the fog ghost will not hurt you. But you must remember, without permission, never enter the mountain fog without permission." Shang Lu responded yes, but his vigilance did not decrease at all.

Only when he was sure that those eyes were just staring at him and there were no other movements did he feel relieved.

A moment later, two cranes carrying Shang Lu and Wei Xuan successfully broke through the mountain fog and landed in a valley.

This valley is filled with exotic blood-red flowers.

The flowers are beautiful and the fragrance is intoxicating.

When the fragrance of the flower was inhaled by Shanglu, it was actually offered as a sacrifice to the internal organs.

But this time, it was not offered to the spleen god, but taken away by the lung god.

The lungs control qi and breathing. It is not surprising that the fragrance of flowers is offered as a sacrifice to the lung god.

However, the fragrance of the flowers, after being separated from the turbid, was sent into the Yin-Yang fish by the lung god.

It actually had a purifying effect on the evil miasma sealed in the Yin-Yang fish.

Although the effect is slight, it is still surprising.

"Senior Brother Wei, what are these flowers?" Shang Lu asked curiously, breathing in the fragrance of the flowers.

Wei Xuan did not laugh at Shang Lu.

Because at this moment, he was also breathing in the fragrance of the flowers.

He even used the Lingyuan Xianxi Jue.

"It smells good, doesn't it? Smell it more. The fragrance of this flower is helpful for spiritual practice! I heard from a doctor who studies spiritual medicine that it is called the Blood Spirit Flower.

This kind of flower only grows on spiritual veins. From the fragrance of the flower to the roots, stems, branches and leaves, everything is a treasure.

In the future, when you explore secret realms, as long as you find blood spirit flowers, it means there are spiritual veins and treasures nearby.

Although the secret realm where our Witch Academy is located is withered, there is still spiritual energy remaining in the spiritual veins, so it can grow blood spirit flowers."

Immediately afterwards, Wei Xuan raised his hand and pointed towards the sea of ​​flowers in front of him.

"Look, the spirit pond is right there."

Shang Lu looked up and saw a clear spring in the blood-red sea of ​​flowers.

The spring water is azure blue, like a dazzling sapphire, especially against the backdrop of the blood-red sea of ​​flowers, it is even more beautiful and obvious.

On the way here, Shang Lu had already asked Wei Xuan about some of the situations in the spirit pond.

He knew that the Spirit Pool was originally a treasure trove that produced spiritual fluid, spiritual fat, and spiritual marrow.

As the secret realm dried up, the spirit pond gradually shrank and eventually became like this.

Although it is smaller in scale and its spiritual energy is weaker than before, it still has many advantages.

It is said that soaking in the spirit pool can not only make your cultivation progress by leaps and bounds, but also eliminate various hidden dangers in the body. It is of great benefit to subsequent cultivation.

At this time, Wei Xuan instructed Shang Lu:

"Brother Shang, there are a few things you must remember: If you see the blood spirit flowers in the valley withering or bearing fruit, you must immediately ride a crane to leave, and never linger any longer; if the fragrance of the flowers turns smelly, you must quickly hold your breath and also ride a crane to leave."

"Why is that?" Shang Lu asked curiously.

“The Blood Spirit Flower is a product of the Secret Realm. You should know that the Secret Realm is full of strangeness and chaos, and the Blood Spirit Flower is no exception.

When it blooms, it brings us many benefits.

But once the flowers wither, or bear fruit, the good will immediately turn into bad consequences, driving people crazy or even bringing about other bad things! Don't be careless!"

"I see. Thank you, Senior Brother Wei, for reminding me."

Shang Lu had been to the secret realm and knew that there were indeed many strange and bizarre things inside.

He nodded seriously, and then asked, "Brother Wei, is there anything else I need to pay attention to in this place?"

Wei Xuan thought for a moment and lowered his voice:

"There is indeed one thing. However, this thing is not recorded in the rules of the Spirit Pond. I heard it privately from the senior brothers and sisters who have entered the Spirit Pond before. Whether it is true or not, and whether you want to abide by it, you can weigh it yourself.

It is said that soaking in a spirit pond may cause hallucinations.

If you see, hear, or feel something wrong, don’t pay attention to it, and don’t respond to it, or you will be haunted by demons, and in serious cases, you may die on the spot.”

"Soaking in a spirit pool can cause hallucinations and even cost you your life by picking up girls?" Shang Lu was shocked.

But on second thought, the spirit pond was transformed from a treasure land in the secret realm, so it is not surprising if any strange things happen there.

However, Wei Xuan’s reminder is still very important.

He immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wei. After I finish soaking in the spirit pool and purify the evil miasma in my body, I will definitely have a drink to thank you."

"You and I are brothers, there's no need to be so polite."

Wei Xuan said seriously: "There is a good Wushan Restaurant in the county town, please stay there when the time comes."

"No problem." Shang Lu agreed immediately.

It was a good thing that Wei Xuan was not polite to him, which showed that his charm and eloquence had improved compared to the beginning.

Only in this way can Wei Xuan treat him as a good friend who does not need to be polite in a short period of time.

Soon, Wei Xuan sent Shang Lu to the spirit pool.

After exchanging the message on the witch academy's jade token, Wei Xuan pointed at the crane ridden by Shang Lu.

"I can't stay here for long. I have to leave now after sending you here. This crane will stay here. If you want to go out, just ride it."

Shang Lu nodded in agreement.

Wei Xuan gave a few more instructions and was about to leave on his crane.

At this moment, Shang Lu suddenly felt a strong fluctuation of witchcraft coming from a distant hill.

I couldn't help but look up.

Wei Xuan guessed what he was surprised about, and took the initiative to explain before he asked.

"The chief priest is in seclusion on Longshou Peak. You must not make any big noise here. If you affect the chief priest's seclusion, no one can save you."

Shang Lu retracted his gaze and laughed, "Brother Wei, I was just soaking in the spirit pool. How could I make such a big noise and alarm the chief priest? You think too highly of me."

Wei Xuan thought about it and realized that this was true, so he said no more.

He just reminded: "If you need anything, contact me via text message." Then he rode on another crane, flew out of the valley, and quickly disappeared into the mountain mist.

Shang Lu watched Wei Xuan leave without wasting any more time.

He took off his wizard robe and the armor underneath it, and in a few moves, he had stripped himself completely.

Then he jumped into the spirit pond.

"hiss……"

As soon as he entered the spirit pool, Shang Lu's expression changed suddenly.

Grinning, he used his hands and feet to try to escape.

But a pair of hands reached out from the spirit pool and held him down.
