Chapter 180 Breakthrough! Breakthrough! I can’t stand it (4000)

Ice blades shot out from the sky!

The rolling beach exploded in an instant; the coconut trees standing on the ground turned into dust; large areas of sea water were cut off.

Faintly, one can still hear the painful wails and the roars of unwilling struggle.

Everything is breaking, everything is cutting.

The extremely piercing sonic boom filled the sky and the earth in an instant.

The ice-blue light filled the vision of all living beings.

Zhang Yuanzhu looked leisurely, stepping on the gravel and striding forward, like a nobleman out for an outing.

Comfortable and relaxing.

Following the light of the knife, he walked step by step to the front of Xuanwu and looked down.

The shell was covered with knife marks, and the snake body wrapped around the tortoise shell had turned into blood foam.

Only Xuanwu, hiding in the tortoise shell, is still struggling and resisting.

Zhang Yuanzhu's face was indifferent, and his muscles, bones, and internal organs were trembling at the same time, making a thunderous sound.

Powerful forces surged from all parts of his body and blessed his arms.

Spread your five fingers and press down randomly.

Bang!
The already broken tortoise shell was torn apart in an instant, and the animal head tucked inside was smashed into pieces.

In an instant, the ice knives in the sky retreated, and the bloody palm was withdrawn from the wreckage.

Zhang Yuanzhu looked up and whispered in his heart:

'it's over! '

The next moment, the beach broke, the sea disappeared, and all the scenes became blurred.

The young man changed his perspective and looked again, and he had returned to the cave.

The Xuanwu Nuo mask on his face slowly disappeared.

Within the Dantian, on the surface of the lake where magic power gathered, the phantoms of the red dragon and the Qilin roared to the sky, and the shadow of a beast composed of a turtle and a snake emerged.

The moment the shadow of Xuanwu appeared, the cultivation and purification of mana accelerated again.

Zhang Yuanzhu closed his eyes, sensing the changes in his body.

You should know that in Nuo Opera and Witchcraft, every time a Nuo mask is cast, it is an all-round improvement for the monk's magic power and physical body.

Not to mention, his three Nuo masks were all made from top-grade spiritual wood and carved with the strongest bloodline between heaven and earth, and their transformation was even more intense.

After an unknown amount of time, the boy opened his eyes and chuckled.

"It seems that I have to complete the breakthrough in one go."

Before he finished speaking, he had already taken out the Great Sun Spirit Essence, placed it in his abdomen, and practiced the technique with all his strength, absorbing spiritual energy and the light of the sun.

Zhang Yuanzhu was completely immersed in his practice, and the magic power in his dantian continued to increase with the passage of time.

one day!
Ten days!

Twenty days!
A whole month passed.

The figure sitting cross-legged on the ground was motionless, but the aura emanating from his body was constantly rising!
rising!!

Climb higher!!!
It will not change until there is no further progress.

Snap! Roar, roar, roar~
A sound of breaking and several beast roars rang out in the room.

The lake formed by magic power in Zhang Yuanzhu's dantian began to surge.

The three beast shadows of the Jiaolong, Qilin and Xuanwu kept roaring.

Bones, muscles, and even the five internal organs also began to transform.

breathe~breath~
The boy's breathing became heavier and heavier, and gradually a strong wind blew through the whole room.

Layers of compacted soil began to fall and then turned into powder.

Finally, the surging magic power in the dantian stopped churning, the body also stopped transforming, the three-headed shadow calmed down, and Zhang Yuanzhu slowly opened his eyes.

What kind of eyes are those?

It is as deep as the starry sky, and contains the vitality that nurtures all things, making people willing to sink into it.

It was not until a cup of tea later that the double pupils returned to normal.

Zhang Yuanzhu stood up, carefully sensing the power in his body, with a grin on his face.

"This is the eighth level of Qi training. It feels pretty good."

Step forward, extending your hands.

Crunch!

The door is pushed open.

The main hall was empty, and the rooms on one side were still blocked.

"Has your retreat not ended yet?"

Zhang Yuanzhu whispered in his heart.

He took a step forward and walked out of the cave.

Climb up the stairs, walk out of the underground, come to the stream, and look at the stream flowing by.

The stream here contains a thin scent of corpse qi and yin qi.

Because of his practice, he had not explored the place in detail, but now that he was free, he could try to search.

Zhang Yuanzhu stretched out his hand, and a sky-blue light emerged from the palm of his hand, instantly covering his entire palm.

A gentle wave.

A stream of water has already floated over.

He held it in his palm, feeling it carefully, his eyes becoming more profound.

"Corpse Qi, demonic Qi, yin Qi, poisonous Qi... it contains too much negative energy."

"Is there some evil spirit here?"

Zhang Yuanzhu muttered to himself.

This situation is too much like the situation caused by the overflow of some evil spirit.

Sha Qi is a necessary element for practicing the Sha realm, which may be naturally bred by heaven and earth or artificially created.

Although there are many types of evil spirits, each one is extremely precious, enough to make a foundation-building cultivator risk his life and even tempt a true cultivator of Ningsha.

If it really is an evil spirit, then we must go find it no matter what, as its value is too high.

While thinking, he removed the light from between his fingers and touched the water on his skin.

All kinds of negative and evil spirits immediately penetrated into the body.

snort!
With a cold snort, his blood boiled, and all the negative aura was wiped out.

A thought.

The green snake at the wrist trembled slightly and swallowed the water ball in the palm in one gulp.

The momentum of the corpse refiner actually increased a little in an instant.

"interesting!"

The young man smiled, raised his hand, and threw the whole green snake into the stream.

bang bang~
The snake's body swelled up, swallowing the stream water in big gulps, refining the corpse qi and poisonous gas in it.

The momentum of the corpse refining is constantly growing stronger.

About an hour passed before the corpse's aura stopped changing.

"Is that the end?"

Zhang Yuanzhu sighed softly.

He knew that this was the limit of the stream and that the corpse refining could not be improved any further.

However, after the changes just now, he was 70% sure that there was definitely an evil spirit in the secret realm.

With a wave of his outstretched hand, the green snake shrank and turned into a bracelet again, which was worn on his wrist.

He sat cross-legged, sometimes looking at the flowing stream, sometimes taking out the jade slips recording the Golden Light Technique to study, and sometimes practicing the technique.

Time passes day by day.

Six days later.

A graceful figure walked out of the cave.

Zhang Yuanzhu took the jade slip in his hand into his arms, stood up, and looked at the increasingly charming girl.

"Congratulations to fellow Taoist for the breakthrough."

"You and I, congratulations."

Xie Beiling walked over with a faint smile and stopped beside the young man.

"Brother Dao has made a breakthrough for a long time, but I have kept you waiting for a long time."

"There is a difference between the ninth and eighth levels of Qi training, so a delay of a few days is reasonable."

Zhang Yuanzhu had a blank expression on his face, his palm casually placed on the ruler.

The two stood side by side, looking towards the stream.

The girl's eyes were bright and curious.

"Brother Dao, what did you see?"

"Evil spirit!"

Zhang Yuanzhu took a deep look at the girl in the black dress and expressed his judgment without hiding anything.

"Evil spirit?"

Xie Beiling stretched out her delicate hand, scooped up a handful of water, felt it carefully, and tapped her forehead lightly.

"It is indeed the result of the leakage of evil spirit."

"We will have another good harvest next."

The girl chuckled. Suddenly, her laughter stopped, and she tilted her pretty face slightly to look at the boy.

"Brother Dao, where are your friend and two acquaintances? Why didn't they sense it?"

"I let them leave. The secret realm is dangerous, hiding is the best option."

Zhang Yuanzhu lightly tapped the ruler with his five fingers and said directly.

"Now that the retreat is over, let's go search for the source of the evil spirit."

"it is good."

Xie Beiling nodded and did not refuse.

Hearing this, Zhang Yuanzhu pulled out a long ruler and chopped towards the cave.

Mysterious light bloomed, and the shadow of a ruler fell.

In an instant, the outer formation was destroyed, the cave collapsed, and all traces were wiped out.

He put away his ruler and stood, then walked upstream towards the stream.

Xie Beiling on the side smiled faintly and walked forward slowly.

The two walked side by side and moved forward.

Trees and rocks constantly pass by in the field of vision.

Gradually, the scent coming from the stream became stronger and stronger, spreading to both sides and making the surrounding area dead silent.

"This is?"

Zhang Yuanzhu whispered, looking forward.

He saw several human corpses and the remains of monsters floating in the stream.

Xie Beiling said nothing, but quickened his pace and came to the shore where the corpse was.

Her eyes were deep and she observed carefully.
"The human corpses should be cultivators who entered the secret realm recently. Their clothing reminds me of the wandering cultivators I killed not long ago."

"Why are they here, not yet?"

The young man had a cold expression on his face. He raised his hand and ice blades appeared in the sky.

"Kill them all!"

Raise your palm and press it down suddenly.

Ice blades shot out violently from the sky.

In an instant, the stream burst open and the riverbed was cut off.

As for the dozens of remains, they only had time to open their eyes, roar, and then turned into minced meat.

Xie Beiling looked at the scene in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitching, it was really violent.

Without any investigation, the zombies in the stream were crushed into pieces.

However, she still used a little information to conduct analysis.

"A corpse wouldn't appear here naturally. There are some traces of refining on it. It's obvious that a living being is using this stream to refine the corpse."

"I remember Lu Chen once said that a blood tiger appeared and interrupted their fight. It was probably the arrangement made by the blood tiger."

"Of course, other possibilities cannot be ruled out."

Listening to the girl's detailed analysis, Zhang Yuanzhu nodded.

The palm fell and continued to move forward.

"Whether it's the blood tiger or some other strange creature, with our current strength, we are more than capable of dealing with any enemy in this secret realm."

"Giggle~"

Xie Beiling chuckled, her black dress fluttering, her three thousand black hair hanging down, and as she stepped forward, the pleasant sound of bracelets rang out.

The ground was in a mess, with corpses, flesh, and rubble turned into powder. A gully appeared again, allowing the stream to flow down.

"Brother Dao is right. There's no need to think too much. Just fight your way to the source of the stream."

Ever since meeting the seventh person from the Immortal Weapon Valley, whether it was killing monsters in the Fire Rock Plain or now, there have been fewer plans and calculations.

After all, no matter how many plans you have made, before they can be implemented, the young man in front of you has already stepped forward and killed the enemy, extremely cleanly and neatly.

While they were thinking, they had already walked several miles.

The various scents of the stream continued to deepen, so that the naked eye could see a faint black mist covering the stream.

Suddenly, Zhang Yuanzhu felt a chill on his right side.

Without any hesitation, a red-gold halo rose from his body, ripples appeared, and swept across the four directions.

Ah ah ah~
A scream mixed with pain was heard, and two dark shadows appeared on the right side where there should have been no one.

The black shadows were twisted, full of resentment and hatred, and pale animal and human faces could be vaguely seen.

They are entangled and intertwined with each other, full of madness and distortion.

It seems like I am suffering tremendous pain every moment.

It looks extremely terrifying and ferocious.

However, the two ghost shadows kept retreating under the red-gold ripples, making a "sizzling" sound.

"A human cultivator who dares to trespass into a tiger's territory will surely die."

The sounds overlapped, as if dozens of people were shouting and roaring.

"So much nonsense."

Zhang Yuanzhu raised his arms, and the halo suspended above and below his body suddenly expanded.

It then transformed into a spear burning with flames.

Five fingers clasped the spear.

Step forward and retract your arms.

Throw!

Boom!

Ripples appeared in the space, and the spear instantly crossed the distance and pierced into the dark shadow.

Ah!
Amidst a sharp wail, a black shadow exploded and was then reduced to ashes.

The other remaining black shadow was frightened by the brutal killing and dared not say a word and was about to flee.

"Giggle~"

Amidst the sound of silver bell-like laughter, a hand wrapped in purple light grabbed the black shadow.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuanzhu's spear, which had been condensed in his palm again, slowly dissipated and turned into a red-gold halo that enveloped his body.

He strode forward like a god walking among men.

Majestic and holy.

"What is it?" An indifferent voice echoed between the two.

Xie Beiling looked up at the slender figure under the light and said softly:
"A type of Yin ghost. Although the refining method is simple, the success rate is pitifully low. It is relatively rare."

"You want to subdue it?"

The voice was still indifferent, but with a hint of different emotion.

"If you don't mind, I do."

"I mind."

With just three words, the atmosphere around the two people became quiet and depressing.

Zhang Yuanzhu placed his five fingers on the Xuanchi and looked at the twisted soul in the dark shadow.

"You come to kill, or I come to destroy."

The voice was calm, yet resolute.

Xie Beiling was silent. This was the first time the two had a disagreement since entering the secret realm.

She looked at the ghost in her palm with a puzzled expression.

"why?"

"It attacked me, and..."

Zhang Yuanzhu grinned, speaking word by word with a carefree attitude:
"I do not like."

A hint of understanding flashed across Xie Beiling's beautiful eyes, as if she understood something.

It turned out that what she was accustomed to was not normal in the eyes of the person in front of her.

The purple light between the five fingers became brighter and instantly wiped out the evil spirit.

Her face became more cold and she walked upstream.

There was only one voice coming from behind.

"This is cultivation. There are many more tragic, more twisted, and more filthy secret methods."

"Whether you are in the Demon Sect, the Side Sect, or the Righteous Path, you can't change anything."

Zhang Yuanzhu slowly removed the halo from his body, revealing his handsome face.

The young man's five fingers slid down from the black ruler, looked at the place where the two ghost figures were wiped out, and whispered:

"I see it, and I will destroy it."

"People can be resolute, they can kill, but they cannot distort."

The words passed by the stream, as if responding to the girl's words.

He took a step forward and headed upstream.

Soon, he saw the graceful figure. The two looked at each other, and no one spoke.

In silence, continue forward.

Black fog spread on both sides of the stream, obscuring the two people's vision.

All you can see are pairs of scarlet eyes, revealing a chilling murderous intent.

Waves of ghostly and corpse-like aura rose up and rushed into the sky.
