The Age of Immortal Cultivation: I Have Mountains and Seas to Accompany Me

Chapter 76: Phantom Sound Gate

Ye Muxue, who was in seclusion, naturally had no idea about the changes that had taken place in the secret realm. She was concentrating on her cultivation.

Ever since she broke through the sixth level of Qi Refining, Ye Muxue's cultivation has been improving slowly... In the past, she would compress her Qi after breaking through a level, forcibly pushing her cultivation down a level. This time, she also consolidated her Qi step by step before improving it, so the efficiency would be much slower.

Originally, she had not planned to break through so quickly, but this time when she climbed the 'ladder to heaven', she inadvertently and passively comprehended two major laws, and the problem of the uneven strength of her soul and body that had been bothering her was also solved. The direct manifestation was that her physical upper limit was improved, her meridians expanded, and the amount of spiritual energy absorbed and the amount of true energy contained in her body were significantly improved. With so many enhancements, she naturally reached the opportunity for a breakthrough.

On this day, Ye Muxue was meditating on the cushion as usual, absorbing spiritual energy... The spiritual energy around her was dense and turned into spiritual mist, lingering around Ye Muxue, making her look like a fairy in the mist.

Before the retreat, the first thing Ye Muxue did was to take a bath and then change into a set of Hanfu... There was no other way, as the spare clothes she brought with her were almost all used up, so she could only make do with it for now. She couldn't possibly go nude, right?

Strands of spiritual energy continuously entered Ye Muxue's body with the operation of the Five Elements Chaos Art. After a big cycle, these spiritual energy turned into true qi and entered the dantian.

In the state of introspection, Ye Muxue could "see" that the originally fluffy true qi was slowly compressed and compacted... once, twice... Suddenly, the gradually full true qi seemed to exceed a certain critical point, and there was a faint tingling pain, and then the true qi seemed to break through some kind of obstacle and ran abnormally actively.

Ye Muxue opened her eyes and stopped practicing. She felt happy and satisfied at that moment - the seventh level of Qi Refining!
For others, it takes three months at the fastest and two to three years at the slowest to advance to the Qi Refining Stage. However, she seemed to have been blessed with a cheat code and reached the seventh level of Qi Refining in less than a year. If those in the cultivation world knew about her speed, they would either rush to accept her as a disciple or detain her until their brains were hollowed out and then they would humanely destroy her!

Ye Muxue went to the bathroom and gave herself a good wash with hot water... The cleaning technique was indeed very thorough, but the hot bath gave her a feeling of "I am alive".

The Hanfu she was wearing was already very dirty, so this time she used the cleaning technique and the clothes became as clean as new again.

The beauty spot on my head feels a little tight, I wonder if it’s because it stores too much information.

Logically speaking, she should consolidate her cultivation after the breakthrough, but her plan was ruined by an unexpected event - because of the promotion, she came out of Qiankunfang and was ready to see what else was in the bronze hall, but a buzzing sound attracted her attention. She looked up and was surprised to find a helicopter flying overhead. In the open cabin door, a cameraman was holding a camera and taking pictures. Ye Muxue found that the other person also showed a look of surprise on his face, and obviously he had seen her too.

Although they met unexpectedly, Ye Muxue reacted very quickly... She cast a water mist spell immediately, and the area around her was immediately filled with mist. Even with thermal imaging technology, there was no way to capture her true appearance.

In fact, Ye Muxue was worrying too much. This ancient secret realm was a little special. Although its outermost magical restrictions were destroyed one after another by the eight flying spirit veins and the four tripods, the seals on escape techniques and time were lifted one after another, but the seal on space folding was not broken. It was just that when the seal was just shaken, a few nodes happened to loosen and some creatures ran out. But as these nodes gradually stabilized, the creatures inside would not come out so easily.

The military has had helicopters cruising overhead these days, and they did see Ye Muxue, but through the folded space, they only found a matchstick-like humanoid creature inside...that's all.

Ye Muxue didn't know about the time seal, but she knew that the seal on the escape technique and the mountain and sea space had been lifted. Now people outside probably already know what happened here. No matter what the final result is, she must hurry to reap the first wave of dividends.

Fortunately, her foundation was very solid. As long as she didn't engage in excessive combat in a short period of time, her cultivation would not fluctuate greatly. Thinking of this, she came to the door of the bronze hall.

People talk about the artistic achievements of the ancients, but there is not a single bit of artistic atmosphere in this bronze hall... If it did not have all the external conditions that a hall should have, it would be more appropriate to call it a 'bronze box'.

Even though he despised it in his heart, he still showed due caution. After investigating the exterior and the gate, he discovered that there was indeed a restriction on the gate, but this restriction had been broken - its energy supply was the eight spirit veins, and now that the eight spirit veins had flown away, the energy supply was cut off, and the restriction was naturally broken.

Ye Muxue stepped onto the steps, came to the door and pushed it... The door was not locked, she pushed it gently... It didn't open! She pushed it again... It still didn't open!

Ye Muxue didn't believe it, so she pressed her hands against the door and used her arms to exert force... The bronze door slowly opened. No one knew which wicked person had cast these two bronze doors, but it would be impossible to push them open without a force of two or three thousand kilograms.

Although this hall has not been opened for hundreds of years, the air in the hall is very fresh and not stuffy at all. Ye Muxue looked up at the four large holes above and was speechless... These should have been the holes that were broken through when the four tripods flew away. It was originally an old house... Now the roof of the old house has been removed and it is completely useless.

The hall was empty... no, in the middle of the hall, there was a golden tripod... It was two people tall and about two meters in diameter. It should be the fake tripod made by the clever Ba Siba.

Why is he called 'Great Smart'?
Originally, he set up this fortune-stealing formation in order to seize the luck of the Central Plains and impose it on Mongolia, but a real tripod was stolen... He wanted to take it back, but ended up getting a fake one. The Mongolians' luck was bumpy, and the sins he committed were not enough even if he had to go through the eighteen levels of hell!

Although Ye Muxue had some complaints about Bashiba, this tripod was a treasure. She raised her hand and put it into the mountain and sea space.

There was also a pile of gold and silver utensils in one corner of the hall... There were tableware, jewelry and the like, some of which were inlaid with large gems and jade.

Ye Muxue took a look. Although they were all ordinary items, they were old items and would be valuable if taken outside. So she picked them all up and threw them into the mountain and sea space.

Such a big palace, but only has these things?

Ye Muxue looked at the surrounding walls and found that they were all engraved with reliefs of Mongolian conquests. There was also a wall engraved with mountains, rivers and strange beasts... um, wait!
Isn’t this the Lake Heart Mountain and the Bronze Temple?
Ye Muxue saw familiar scenes... stone forests, deserts, big lakes, monsters, blood bats and saltwater lakes, black dragons, etc. There were many places she had never been to, marked with some primitive creatures she had never seen, some mineral resources were marked on them, and even the eight spirit veins were marked on them one by one.

Of course, the Honghuang Secret Realm is a secret realm that has been folded in space. There are far more than eight spiritual veins inside, otherwise it would not be enough for the secret realm to operate.

This map must be mastered, or it can be used to exchange for some benefits for oneself. According to this map, there is indeed a way to leave this secret realm, and the passage to leave here is in this hall... Ye Muxue took out the tripod again speechlessly.

In the belly of the cauldron, there is an inscription with the method of refining the "Ascension Jade Talisman". After the Ascension Jade Talisman is refined, the holder only needs to crush the jade talisman to be sent out of the secret realm.

Ye Muxue read it through. The inscription described the refining process very clearly. Even a novice with no experience in refining could refine it easily.

After sending the tripod back to the mountain and sea space, Ye Muxue used the Green Scale Sword to cut off the wall engraved with the map of the secret realm and put it into the space.

There seemed to be nothing left in this bronze palace. Ye Muxue escaped from the top of the mountain and flew down the mountain... She determined the current location of the beautiful girl through the contract.

When going down the mountain, she paused briefly on the Ladder to Heaven... Unfortunately, this Ladder to Heaven had become an ordinary mountain climbing staircase.

The beautiful girl seemed to be free these days. Although she was also a monster with certain combat power, the Moonlight Rabbit's combat power could really be ignored compared to most prehistoric beasts. But her illusion could indeed avoid most of the damage...Ever since she successfully transformed herself into Ye Muxue's appearance, the Black Dragon had become her 'Dragon Ferry' to travel between the two sides of the river.

When Ye Muxue was in seclusion, she was so happy that if she hadn't received the news that Ye Muxue had come out of seclusion, she would not have been willing to come back. "Sister, you missed me so much!"

Before Ye Muxue could stop, she bounced and fell into Ye Muxue's arms... Ye Muxue felt his arms sink and almost dropped the beautiful girl to the ground.

"You've gained weight again!"

"It's normal to be a little fat while I'm still growing!" the beautiful girl said confidently.

"What about the thing I asked you to help investigate? You weren't just playing around, were you?" Ye Muxue asked suspiciously.

"of course not."

The beautiful girl felt very aggrieved and guided him to a huge stone cave halfway up the mountain. "This cave originally existed. There was a restriction on the stone door, but when I found it, the restriction had already expired."

Ye Muxue took a look at the stone cave... This might be related to the introduction of those spiritual veins in the first place.

Because of the incident with the bronze hall's door, Ye Muxue was prepared to push the door hard... However, as soon as she pushed the door, she almost fell to the ground.

轻!
Surprisingly light.

The moment the door opened, a strong aura of spiritual energy hit her face, and Ye Muxue knew that the beautiful girl had indeed found the right place.

In fact, there were already scattered spirit stones on the walls on both sides of the door, and they were water-type spirit stones. Ye Muxue was not in a hurry to mine them, but continued to walk into the cave.

"Beautiful girl, have you ever been in here?"

"I have been in, but these spirit stones are of no use to us, the Moonlight Rabbit Clan." said the beautiful girl.

"What reward do you want?"

Ye Muxue asked.

"I want bigger storage equipment." The beautiful girl discussed the conditions.

"Okay, I don't know how to refine it now, but when I figure it out tomorrow, I will definitely give it to you first." Ye Muxue has now learned how to write a blank check.

"No need to bother."

The beautiful girl simply jumped out of Ye Muxue's arms, skipping and leading the way... After walking about ten meters, they turned a corner and entered a stone chamber.

As soon as she entered, Ye Muxue's attention was attracted by a pile of things in the stone chamber.

A necklace, a bracelet inlaid with the seven treasures of Buddhism, three rings, a feather, a bone, and an ordinary-looking gold bracelet.

Space gear!

Suddenly, Ye Muxue became a little stiff... These people all have space equipment, but what about Ba Siba?
Ye Muxue initially thought that Bashiba’s storage equipment might have been lost along with the backlash of Heaven, but... who said that Nine-Eyed Dzi Beads couldn’t be used as storage equipment?

Sure enough, after she checked Bashiba's Dzi bracelet, she found that the four spacer beads were all space storage equipment. This might be because of the darkness under the lamp. Because of the nine-eyed Dzi beads and the relic, she did not do a detailed inspection and almost made a fool of herself.

She checked the necklace... The space inside was larger than the previous ring, and the length could be controlled. As for the things inside... there were quite a few, 32 medium-grade spirit stones, 4000 high-grade spirit stones, 10 top-grade spirit stones, and nearly a hundred bottles of various... aromatic medicines. An ancient zither with the words "Yaochi" engraved on the belly of the zither, which was obviously more suitable for war zither than Luqi, two jade slips, a pair of short swords... the swords were named "Qingyao".

She picked up one of the jade slips and put it close to her brow... This was the inheritance of Huanyin Sect, including the cultivation of illusion and sound. She checked the other jade slip and found that it was also an inheritance - "Strange Fragrance Book".

"Okay, you take it."

Ye Muxue transferred the contents of the necklace to other storage rings, and then tied the necklace around the beautiful girl's neck: "I know what you want this time. I really don't know what you are going to pretend."

"No comment!" The beautiful girl said it in a diplomatic tone.

"You can just be poor." Ye Muxue picked up the beautiful girl disrespectfully and held her in his arms, "Go and see how much wealth you left for me."

……

Ding Pei and Shao Hongying carefully crawled out of their hiding place and quickly ran to the berry tree. Many of the animals and plants here were new to them, and this effect was the only way for them to fill their stomachs these days.

Shao Hongying went to the border post to take several photos of the daily life of the border guards. It was she who took the photo of the eagle and reported it. Later, when the post took action, she insisted on following the troops, and Ding Pei was sent by the regiment to accompany her. After all, it was inconvenient for a woman to go to the post full of masculine atmosphere for an interview alone.

Shao Hongying had to accompany the operation, and Ding Pei had no choice but to follow. However, the troops were dispersed by a group of sand lizards at the edge of the desert. They and several soldiers narrowly escaped the pursuit of the sand lizards, but in the following days, those soldiers died one after another, and the two untrained women miraculously survived.

There were not many ripe berries on the tree. After picking for a while, the two people suddenly froze... A strange and uneasy feeling arose. They slowly turned their heads and their faces turned pale with horror.
