Chapter 426: sacred place
Chapter 426 Divine Realm
Chen Mu's eyes swept across the entire tree cave, without stopping too much elsewhere. He only cast his eyes on the spiritual pool in the center.
What is stored in this square Lingtan is the accumulation of the entire Xunmu Cave for thousands of years. Even Chen Mu can't help but be amazed by the rich and strong vitality and spiritual power. What is even more eye-catching is the deepest part of the Lingtan. It also contained a touch of gold. Chen Mu didn't know what it was, but it must be more precious than Xunmu Spiritual Liquid.
At this moment, Chen Mu did not pause much and immediately walked towards Lingtan.
Almost at the moment when Chen Mu approached the edge of Lingtan.
Sudden changes occurred!
But within the entire tree cave, the broken foundation stones of the formation suddenly began to spread with beams of spiritual light, and they were intertwined in an instant, locking Chen Mu in the center like a net.
And just on the side of the Lingtan, Lingji, who was originally lifeless, suddenly opened a pair of blood pupils, and his drooped head was slightly raised. His whole body was still covered with cracks, but among these cracks were A spiritual light filled the air, like the texture of heaven and earth, connected to the formation cornerstones throughout the tree cave.
The core of these pieces of spiritual light is also the spiritual pool!
“Please ask the Holy Tree to kill this beast!”
Lingji let out a hoarse roar. This roar seemed to tear the wounds on his body further, and blood gushed out from his mouth and nose. He looked at Chen Mu with a deep look in his eyes. of hatred.
If it weren't for Chen Mu, they wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses in this outer invasion. If it weren't for Chen Mu, Linghuan would have had more time to guide him in his practice and teach him everything before his life span expired.
But now it’s all gone.
Linghuan is dead.
He is also short-lived and has no chance of surviving.
Without the people at the level of the spiritual ancestors, perhaps this one hundred-year-old man from outside the world will not have time to do more. Some spiritual people can still survive safely, but in the next hundred years, if no spiritual ancestors are born, the Xunmu Cave Heaven will be completely destroyed. If it falls, it will be controlled by invaders from outside the world, and it will no longer be their pure land.
Hate was deep in his heart.
Even if it means death, he will bring Chen Mu with him!
唰!
Chen Mu's movements and reactions were also extremely fast. He seemed to be walking toward the Lingtan without any precautions, but in fact, he was always on guard. The moment the Lingji suddenly burst into flames, he suddenly backed away.
It's just that the spiritual threads spreading out nearby were too fast. They gathered together in the blink of an eye and wrapped around his body. These spiritual threads could not cause any harm to him, nor could they completely suppress him, but they still It made his movements a little slower and he was unable to exit the tree cave in the first time.
Almost at the next moment, Chen Mu's pupils shrank slightly.
He noticed that a will that permeated the world seemed to be awakening from a deep sleep, making the world he perceived seemed to come to life all of a sudden, so that his realm of heaven and earth was temporarily ineffective and unable to interact with him. That will to fight for control of the power of heaven and earth.
This will does not look like a real living life, or it does not look like a wise person like him. It seems very sluggish and jerky, as if it is just an instrument without a self, and its origin is unquestionable.
Xunmu body!
This is Xunmu’s will!
Chen Mu had carefully explored Xunmu's body before he entered the forbidden area. He was also worried that such a creature would be as self-aware and intelligent as a 'monster'. In that case, it would be very terrifying, and it would be far away if calculated. It is unknown whether it is the eleventh or twelfth-level demon that is superior to Daxuan's tenth-level demon.
But after careful inspection, he did not feel any obvious active will from Xunmu, so he stepped in.
Now it seems that this towering tree does not have no will, but its will is not that active, or it has been in a deep sleep, and it has not woken up for an unknown period of time.
But at this moment, Lingji forcibly communicated and guided him in some way and at a certain cost, causing his will to suddenly spread and fall on Chen Mu. The oppressive feeling given to Chen Mu at this moment was so strong that he couldn't help it. Use words to describe it!
It’s like,
When you stand on the top of Yunni Tianfeng, you look up at the vast sky and feel your own insignificance!
This will belonging to Xunmu swept through Chen Mu's body, making him feel as if he was facing a powerful enemy. His whole body was almost tense to the limit. He mobilized all the strength in his body, preparing to deal with the horror that might fall at any time. attack.
“Die, die…”
Ling Ji was covered in blood and could not stand up at this time. He just sat there stiffly, with blood constantly pouring out from the cracks in his body, which looked extremely terrifying. The vitality of his whole body was like a candle flame swaying in the wind. will be extinguished.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Chen Mu was filled with the joy of revenge.
No one can resist the power of the sacred tree.
Even those at the spirit ancestor level are like ants in front of the holy tree, which is the pillar that holds up the heaven and earth.
Remembering that Linghuan told him that the Xunmu Sacred Tree was conscious, but was always sleeping, he was shocked by this for a long time, because he had never sensed this before, even when he entered the Lingzu level. find.
But Linghuan also told him that he must not try to stimulate Xunmu's will to wake him up unless it was absolutely necessary, because Xunmu's will had been sleeping for thousands of years, and even Linghuan didn't know what would happen if he awakened Xunmu.
Today.
It is the time of last resort.
These evil spirits from outside the world come to their world and kill so wantonly, the Holy Tree will definitely not let go, and it will definitely...
Zi.
Ling Ji’s thoughts came to an abrupt end.
In his sight, he saw the spiritual threads that were like spider webs entangled in Chen Mu's body. They suddenly disappeared one by one. This was not his manipulation, but the spiritual power that constructed the spiritual threads of the formation. subsided on its own.
Lingji was stunned on the spot, but before he could react, a beam of green spiritual light penetrated the void and pierced his body with one blow, causing an empty blood hole to appear between his chest and abdomen.
…”
Lingji slowly lowered his head and looked at the blood hole in his body. Then he could no longer support his body and fell into a pool of blood. The last moment when his consciousness disappeared, he was still confused.
All the spiritual threads on Chen Mu's body have disappeared at this time. He can exit the tree cave in just one step. However, at this time, he did not make any excessive movements and only stood on the spot with extremely solemn eyes.
Although he could exit the tree cave in one step, this place was still the heart of Xunmu Tree. He was not absolutely sure that he could escape. Moreover, the movements of Xunmu Will also made him a little confused. It seemed that after observing him for a short time, he first In time, the spiritual thread that bound him dispersed, and then he redirected his spiritual power, killing Lingji on the spot with one blow!
Looking at the confused and dead soul, Chen Mu suddenly had a thought in his heart.
The Lingren tribe regards Xunmu as a sacred tree, respects and worships it, but Xunmu does not necessarily think that the Lingren tribe is its people. After all, the survival of the Lingren tribe is equivalent to being parasitic on Xunmu, and it is absorbing it all the time. Seeking the nutrients of wood!
Lingji's body, which was almost purely tempered by Xunmu's spiritual fluid, the so-called 'Ling Ancestor's body', was probably the most disgusting existence in Xunmu's eyes, so he killed it immediately.
Just when Chen Mu’s mind was flashing with thoughts.
A voice suddenly sounded in his mind. It was not the transmission of spiritual power, but the transmission of soul thoughts. It sounded like a voice, but in fact it was an idea that was more direct than sound and language.
Soul transmission is a method that Chen Mu has never heard of. Even if it is a heavenly master who can transmit sounds thousands of miles or even thousands of miles away, he has never heard of anyone who can directly transmit thoughts at the level of the heart and soul, or a heavenly being. The strength of the master's heart and soul is at least one level lower than Xunmu's will.
"Human race." "I can let you leave safely, and you can take the resources here for yourself, but I need you to make an agreement."
Xunmu's will is ancient and vicissitudes, and the feeling it brings to Chen Mu cannot be compared with any life he knows. Even Linghuan, an old spiritual ancestor who has lived for thousands of years, is far from the vicissitudes of life. Compared with Xunmu's will.
“What agreement?”
Chen Mu asked cautiously.
Xunmu's thoughts echoed in Chen Mu's mind: "Although I can hold up a piece of heaven and earth in the void, I am unable to travel far in the void. After you advance to the divine realm, you will have to follow the lineage of the void. Once I have mastered the Tao to a sufficient level, I can come back here and help me return to my hometown..."
This paragraph of thought revealed so much information that Chen Mu's consciousness paused for a moment.
The first is 'hometown'. Linghuan also sighed with this thought when he fell. If he guessed correctly, the Lingren clan and Xunmu may both come from the same place. There may be a place that is comparable to the Daxuan Mountains and Rivers. world, but it is more likely to be a world even broader than Daxuan.
Then there are the 'Divine Realm' and the 'Void Lineage', which are obviously the realm and route of cultivation. Whether in Daxuan, Waihai, or Xunmu Cave, he has never heard of the 'Divine Realm' level.
certainly.
In the eyes of ordinary mortals, the strength and means of marrow-washing masters and even blood-changing heavenly beings are no different from those of gods and Buddhas. The gods and demons depicted in many strange stories are actually the images of those heavenly beings in the eyes of the world.
The eighth step of the Body Tempering Martial Arts is the realm of blood exchange, and in Xunmu Cave Heaven, this step is called the ‘Lingzu realm’. So, is the realm of blood exchange in a certain world also called the ‘god realm’?
Different titles, but the same level?
But the greater possibility is that the divine realm is superior to the blood exchange realm. Perhaps that is the direction of the ninth step of the body tempering martial arts!
To be called a saint by martial arts, to become a **** with martial arts, in Chen Mu's opinion, if anyone can find a way beyond the eighth realm of body tempering martial arts and take the ninth step, he or she may truly be able to break through the boundaries of the mundane and become a god. Demons are also natural.
also.
There is also the ‘Void Lineage’ mentioned by Xunmu Zhiyi.
He has discussed worldly martial arts with Yin Heng, Qin Mengjun and others before, and he even has a certain understanding of the void himself. However, let alone mastering the power of the void, he cannot even comprehend it in detail, and cannot further understand it at all.
Since Xunmu Will mentions the lineage of the void and is a path of cultivation, it means that his previous inference is correct. In other words, in the entire Daxuan world, many masters who have reached the blood-changing realm and even the level of gods, their judgments They are all correct. Void is indeed a force that can be understood, just like wind, thunder, water and fire, but at a higher level.
When I thought of this.
Chen Mu also fell into deep thought in his heart.
It is obvious that Xunmu Will knows a lot of information that he does not know. The value of this information can be said to be extremely precious. It is far rarer than any spiritual objects in the world, or even the Xunmu spiritual liquid. It can make those heavenly beings want to obtain it. , but the question is, is he suitable to ask about these things?
Xunmu hoped that he could step into the so-called divine realm, even comprehend the void, and then help it return to a certain place after possessing supreme power. But what if he didn't even understand the divine realm and the so-called void lineage? ?
Chen Mu thought for a while and made a decision. It was better to be on the safe side.
“Okay, I can accept it.”
“It’s just that it’s not easy to get to that level, and the resources you have here are not of much use to me.”
Chen Mu raised his head and looked upward.
Although he didn't understand a lot of information, through the information given by Xunmu, he roughly knew that Xunmu Cave Heaven was probably only connected to the Daxuan World. After all, he had never heard that Xunmu Cave Heaven could still be reached in the past. Going to other places, the Lingren tribe didn’t know how many people had been tortured by Ting Chao Ya, and there was no news in this regard.
The existence of Xunmu's will has not been known to anyone for thousands of years. In addition to the previous situation, it can be inferred that Xunmu must have been sleeping for a long time. Perhaps for it, opening up such a void to maintain its own body, It's not easy either.
And him.
The martial body of the seven realms.
In the world of Daxuan, the foundation of martial arts cannot currently exist. Even in a wider world, his foundation should be called a 'genius', so Xunmu took the initiative to communicate with him, thinking that he There is a certain probability that I can reach a certain height in the future, and then I want to make an agreement with him.
That also means that he can talk about the conditions for a while. Although the situation is not good for him and he is the party being coerced, it can be seen from various information that Xunmu's situation is probably not much better. go.
…”
After hearing Chen Mu’s words, Xunmu Zhizhi fell into a brief silence.
After a while.
The ancient and vicissitudes of Xunmu's thoughts resurfaced in Chen Mu's mind.
“Indeed, once you have reached your level of cultivation, the things here are useless to you, but... this is useful to you.”
Hum!
With a buzzing sound, the spiritual pool in the center of the tree cave suddenly rippled, and then the green Xunmu spiritual liquid separated to both sides, and a section emerged in the center of the bottom. Pale golden vines extend from the roots of Xun Mu.
There is a very green spiritual fruit that is only the size of a finger growing on the vine.
Zizi.
And in the next moment, a large amount of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid was controlled by a force and poured into the pale golden vine, making the vine glow with golden luster and making the green vine glow. The spirit fruit grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few moments, it grew from the size of a finger to the size of a baby's fist, and gradually turned from green to red.
After the whole fruit finally turned into a deep red color, everything came to a standstill, and the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in the Lingtan was faintly visible, with nearly one-third less!
Chen Mu can already tell that the Xunmu Spiritual Liquid in the Lingtan Lake weighs tens of thousands of kilograms, which means more than three thousand kilograms of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, before he forcibly ripened this crimson spiritual fruit of unknown origin!
"Your soul is a bit weak. The 'fruit' bred by my companion ancient vine can temper your body and condense your soul. Body tempering is of little significance to you, but soul tempering is still useful to you...my companion ancient vine There should be one still alive, but it must have been picked before it was fully mature, otherwise I can give you both," Xunmu Zhi continued.
Following.
The dark red and almost ripe strange spiritual fruit floated away from the pale golden ancient vine, drew an arc in the air, and fell to Chen Mu not far away. Chen Mu reached out to catch it.
He looked at the spirit fruit in his hand. He didn't even need to feel it. An invisible fragrance filled his heart, making his heart and soul become quieter. He could tell that it was precious and extraordinary just by instinct.
Furthermore, Chen Mu understood what Xun Mu Zhi mentioned.
No wonder that in the cave world of Xunmu Dongtian, which cannot support blood exchanges, a heavenly master like Linghuan was born. I am afraid that the unripe spiritual fruit mentioned by Xunmu was picked by Linghuan. With this, he entered the realm of blood exchange, and even achieved the unity of heaven and man, gaining power that was completely beyond the reach of Xunmu Dongtian.
As for Lingji... it may be that Linghuan, the heavenly being, helped him in some way, and with the almost inexhaustible resource of Xunmu Spiritual Liquid, he finally completed that step of transformation and entered the spiritual world. The level of ancestors, but Lingji is obviously more reluctant, physically weaker than Linghuan, and the level of artistic conception is far lower than that of heaven and human beings.
"Okay, if I can enter the divine realm in the future and cultivate to a high level in the void lineage, I will definitely abide by the agreement, return here, and help you return to your hometown." Chen Mu caught the strange spiritual fruit and rushed Zhu Xunmu spoke seriously.
This kind of agreement is not a constraint for him. If he cannot reach that level in the future, it will mean it does not exist. And if he can really reach that level, then it is enough to carry Xunmu. .
