Chapter 63 Ten-Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk (Seeking monthly votes and recommendation votes)

Upon hearing this, Li Shizhou's heart tightened. Every task given by the Nascent Soul stage monster was always troublesome.

But as disciples of the Star Palace, they had no choice but to obey and could only sit obediently in place.

Once only the three of them remained in the stone hall, Elder Ximen, with a cold face, asked via telepathy, "Li Shizhou, do you cultivate a body-refining technique?"

"Uncle-Master, I have indeed practiced body-refining techniques," Li Shizhou replied truthfully via telepathy.

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Ximen's fingers twitched slightly.

A tremendous force suddenly surged through Li Shizhou's body, growing stronger and stronger until it finally weighed over ten thousand jin.

His bones started cracking and popping, and veins were bulging on his forehead.

Li Shizhou understood that this was a test of his physical strength, so he could only grit his teeth and desperately resist.

After a while, the immense force dissipated, and Elder Ximen nodded in satisfaction, taking out a jade box and handing it over.

Li Shizhou opened it and found two white talismans, a bottle of pills, and two round beads, one black and one white, which puzzled him for a moment.

Seeing his expression, Elder Ximen began to explain the mission details and reasons.

The task is quite simple: Li Shizhou just needs to activate the two avatar talismans inside the "Hanlitai" where the Void Heaven Cauldron is located.

The two elders originally planned to use their incarnation talismans to sneak into the inner hall after it opened to monitor the treasure-hunting process.

However, this would inevitably greatly deplete the power of the incarnation talisman, which would be detrimental to subsequent actions.

So they set their sights on Li Shizhou.

The two round beads, one black and one white, are mainly used for temporary teleportation.

Crushing the black bead allows you to be teleported directly outside "Hanlitai" at any time.

The white bead, infused with magical power, can pass through the protective barrier outside the "Hanli Terrace". Once the incarnation talisman is activated, crushing the white bead will teleport you back to the main hall of the Void Heaven Palace.

Because it involves forcibly using the restrictions of the Void Heaven Palace for teleportation, it places extremely high demands on the cultivator's physique. If the physical strength is insufficient, the cultivator may die as a result.

This is also why the two elders chose Li Shizhou and tested his physical strength.

That bottle of pills was for him to recover from the damage to his physical body.

Since things had come to this point, Li Shizhou had no choice but to agree, even though he felt he had to bite the bullet.

However, if you want someone to do something, you naturally have to offer them a little something in return.

Elder Ximen said, "There is still some time. Which treasure do you want to take? We two can tell which pavilion the passage corresponds to. After you take the treasure, crush the black bead to skip the Wonderful Illusion."

Li Shizhou was overjoyed upon hearing this, at least he didn't have to rely on luck to find a cultivation technique now, so he replied, "Cultivation technique."

Elder Ximen looked somewhat suspicious after hearing this.

Li Shizhou hurriedly explained, "I obtained a fragmented body-refining technique in my early years. I searched the sect but found it wasn't included in the manual, so I wanted to take this opportunity to go in and see if I could get the complete version."

Elder Ximen did not press further, but transmitted his voice, saying, "You can use the left passage for the cultivation method. I see you as a promising talent, and I have a few words of advice for you. Are you willing to listen?"

"This disciple is all ears," Li Shizhou replied respectfully.

"Don't be greedy for the Heaven-Mending Pill inside. Although this pill is good, it can only improve the aptitude of cultivators who have not yet formed their Nascent Soul. In fact, my Star Palace also has this kind of pill. Otherwise, the Void Heaven Cauldron would have been taken out by the sect long ago, and it would not have been available to others. It is just bait to sow discord between the righteous and demonic paths."

"Your disciple will respectfully follow your teachings."

In fact, from the very beginning, Li Shizhou had no intention of entering the inner hall of the Void Heaven Palace.

His goal has always been clear: everything is for immortality, and all so-called opportunities and magical treasures are meant to serve this purpose.

Because he didn't have the little green bottle, he never considered taking the gold-eating beetle or the golden thunder bamboo.

Without the cultivation of a Nascent Soul cultivator and the spiritual insect capable of pulling the Void Heaven Cauldron, naturally no one would covet this treasure.

He entered the Void Heaven Palace only for the cultivation technique, and incidentally to help the Crying Soul Beast advance its level.

However, now that we can enter the inner hall, we should naturally take the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk and the Soul Nourishing Wood with us.

A moment later, Li Shizhou stepped into a cylindrical space.

The room was filled with fog; there was no blue sky, no sun, moon, or stars, making it feel eerie and oppressive.

In front of him was a jade bridge several tens of feet long, which connected to a pavilion thirty feet high.

The pavilion is suspended in mid-air, enveloped by a spherical transparent light curtain, with the three golden characters "Xuan Gong Ge" written on the plaque.

Upon seeing these three words, Li Shizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked along the jade bridge into the pavilion, and upon entering, he saw a huge jade slip about ten feet long floating in the vast space, as well as a scroll about seven or eight feet long.

The scroll is densely covered with thousands of martial arts techniques.

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, Li Shizhou examined the text and indeed found the four characters "Lingzhao Zhenjing" on it.

He was overjoyed and used his divine sense to select this cultivation method.

The enormous jade slip suddenly radiated a brilliant light, and a beam of light enveloped Li Shizhou below.

After a short while, a complete "Spiritual Illumination Scripture" appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, and unlike the one in the Star Palace, it was not surrounded by restrictions.

Having obtained the cultivation technique, Li Shizhou walked out of the pavilion and took one of the pills given to him by Elder Ximen.

Then he crushed the black bead, and the space around him began to fluctuate violently. His vision went black and his ears rang incessantly.

When Li Shizhou opened his eyes again, he found himself in front of a gray platform that was thirty feet high and a hundred feet long and wide, with a stone staircase extending from the bottom to the top.

The entire platform was enveloped in a white light curtain, emitting a bluish glow that intensified as one ascended.

His body felt like it was falling apart; any slight movement made him feel as if countless tiny needles were piercing through his body.

Fortunately, the pills he had taken earlier were slowly helping him recover from the damage to his body.

After his physical discomfort subsided, Li Shizhou did not immediately walk onto the platform.

Instead, he went around to the bluestone wall behind the platform and kept pounding on it with his fists.

The original book contains a hidden compartment here, where a yellowed scroll was kept, which contained a schematic diagram of the fifth floor of the inner hall of the Void Heaven Palace.

Find the scroll, and you will find the millennia-old spiritual milk and a piece of soul-nourishing wood.

Li Shizhou pounded his fists for a while, and suddenly a muffled thud was heard.

His eyes lit up, and he took out a blue longsword. He dug a small hole in the spot where he had just struck, reached in and groped around for a while before pulling out a soft, slender stick.

Upon opening it, there was indeed a simple map inside, with a red line standing out prominently.

After confirming that the items were correct, Li Shizhou excitedly put the scroll back into his storage bag, then took out a white bead and infused it with magic power, enveloping his entire body in a soft white light.

He walked towards the stone steps of the high platform, and when he encountered the array light barrier outside, he stepped over it without any hindrance.

As soon as you enter, a bone-chilling cold hits you, even more intense than the "Mysterious Crystal Path," and the higher you go, the colder it gets.

Li Shizhou imbued his protective aura with the "Burning Heaven Flame" and, upon reaching the top of the platform, unleashed two incarnation talismans.

A dazzling five-colored light flashed before his eyes, and the talisman transformed into the appearance of two law enforcement elders of the Star Palace. If he hadn't known beforehand that it was a talisman, he really wouldn't have been able to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

The kind-faced elder said, "Alright, Li Shizhou, your task is complete. You still have some time. You can search for treasures on the fifth floor of the inner hall, and then you can leave."

"Yes, disciple takes his leave."

Li Shizhou bowed respectfully. As soon as he finished speaking, the two law enforcement elders concealed their auras and disappeared after a distorted light and shadow.

He descended from the platform, wandered around for a while, and then took out the scroll. Following the guidance of the red line on it, he successfully arrived in front of a teleportation array.

After placing the spirit stones and activating the formation, a flash of white light appeared before his eyes, and he found himself in an unfamiliar space.

As soon as I stepped out of the teleportation array, the golden panel refreshed.
