The cultivation of immortality by mortals begins with the abandoned children of the river

"How could it be? If I meet Senior Sister Leng, I will definitely provide help as long as she needs it." Zhan Nianchuan answered without hesitation. Speaking of which, Leng Bingqing let him go at Qingling Peak. With Tong Xi's connections, he would definitely take action if he could help him.

Tong Xi nodded with satisfaction.

"By the way, the disciple has always had a doubt that is hard to figure out. It is that the secret realm at the southern foot contains the spiritual grass and elixir needed for the Foundation Establishment Pill. However, it has been around for tens of thousands of years and has been opened every five years. So many times. Open it, why haven’t the spiritual herbs in it been picked yet?”

Zhan Nianchuan raised the biggest doubt in his heart. He also searched for information in the Classics Pavilion, but did not get the answer.

Tong Dachuan nodded approvingly, "You have opened the secret realm so many times, and you are the only one who has asked me this question. Others think it is a natural thing, and just pick it, but they have never considered why."

Tong Xi didn't know the answer to this question, and her curiosity was aroused. She looked at Tong Dachuan with a pair of bright eyes, waiting for his explanation.

"I do not know why either,"

This sentence directly shocked Zhan Nianchuan and Tong Xi. They couldn't help but look at each other, feeling slightly dissatisfied with Tong Dachuan in their hearts.

"But I have a guess." Fortunately, Tong Dachuan did not continue to talk about it and continued:

"It is that the concentration of spiritual energy in the secret realm is far higher than that of the outside world, and the place where the spiritual grass grows is a hundred times more. This greatly shortens the time for the spiritual grass to mature. Although the five sects fight for the spiritual grass life and death, they will leave seedlings so that they can Pick next time.”

Zhan Nianchuan nodded silently, accepting the explanation, and then asked another question that Tong Dachuan did not expect.

"Then where does the spiritual energy in the secret realm that is a hundred times greater than the outside come from?"

Tong Dachuan was speechless and unable to answer. At a glance, he saw Tong Xi pursed his lips and snickered, so he had to say stiffly:

"How do you know, Master? It is common knowledge that the aura of the secret realm is far greater than that of the outside world. Why don't you ask the person who created the secret realm?"

Tong Xi couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. There was a burst of flower branches trembling, and the spring was endless. Unfortunately, Zhan Nianchuan was concentrating on thinking and didn't see it at all.

Seeing this kid thinking again, Tong Dachuan was amused but also admired him, and he and Tong Xi waited quietly together.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhan Nianchuan gently stroked his eyebrows and said something that made their hearts skip a beat.

"Disciple also has a guess, I don't know if it is correct or not."

"Tell me about it." Tong Dachuan was also thinking about this question just now. He didn't have an answer for the moment and was very curious.

"The concentration of spiritual energy in many secret realms far exceeds that of the outside world, and it has hardly faded for thousands of years. In addition, there are many kinds of spiritual herbs and elixirs in the secret realms that are difficult to find in the outside world. Even the places with the strongest spiritual energy in the outside world do not have this kind of spiritual energy. Waiting for the spiritual grass, so the disciple makes a bold guess,"

At this point, Zhan Nianchuan's words paused, causing the two father and daughter who were listening attentively to roar:

"Say it!"

Zhan Nianchuan was startled, thought about his words, and said slowly:

"The secret realm is the interface that connects to another interface."

There was a long silence as everyone digested this extremely shocking news.

I have to say that although this idea is unbelievable, it seems to make some sense.

In the end, Tong Dachuan came to a conclusion:

"Okay, no matter whether it is an interface connected to another interface, it is not something that little monks like us can detect. Now let's focus on the secret realm of Nanlu."

"Master, senior sister, this disciple has some doubts that cannot be resolved during his recent cultivation..." Finally got the opportunity to ask Tong Dachuan for advice, so Zhan Nianchuan naturally had to take advantage of it.

The three of them began to exchange their cultivation experiences, and time passed slowly.

......

After leaving Lindan Peak, Zhan Nianchuan immediately went to the Zongmen Contribution Hall.

The familiar deacon of the Contribution Hall saw Zhan Nianchuan and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Zhan, are you here to buy supplies for the Nanlu Secret Realm?"

"Yes, it may be better to buy more things to protect yourself in the secret realm."

Zhan Nianchuan replied casually. At this time, he couldn't help but regret seeing the dense flow of people in the contribution hall. He came too late, and I was afraid that all the good goods had been replaced by others.

"Senior Brother Zhan, you are being humble. Your current strength is probably comparable to those senior brothers at the eighth level of Qi Condensation. There is no problem in protecting yourself." The deacon tried his best to flatter.

Zhan Nianchuan smiled noncommittally and asked:

"Is there any more Tianleizi?"

"Tianleizi has been selling very well recently. Let me see... there is only one left. Senior Brother Zhan is lucky." The deacon handed Tianleizi over with a smile.

"It's good if you can buy them. Give me some more Thunder Fire Talisman and Explosion Talisman, just low-level ones. No one should want these now."

The deacon handed hundreds of thunder fire talismans and explosive talismans to Zhan Nianchuan. He really didn't understand what role these low-level talismans could have. For disciples at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Condensation, they were just a little better than scratching an itch.

......

The next day, early in the morning.

"Clang clang clang..."

Early in the morning, a clear sound of bells rang throughout the Xuantian Sect.

"Are you going to start?"

Zhan Nianchuan slowly opened his eyes, rushed out of the cave and ran quickly towards Xuantian Peak.

The main hall of the sect.

By the time Zhan Nianchuan arrived, one hundred elite disciples from the inner and outer sects of Xuantian Sect had basically arrived. Looking at them, they were all at the ninth level of Qi Condensation, and there was not a single weak one.

The only thing that makes people feel weird is the age span. Some are only in their twenties and are handsome, while some are already wrinkled and have a decayed spirit.

The people were divided into six groups based on peaks and gathered together to talk about the upcoming trip to the secret realm.

Zhan Nianchuan also walked towards the circle of the remaining eight people on Lindan Peak. Compared with other peaks, Lindan Peak had the largest number of old people, with a total of five people.

"Junior Brother Zhan, you came just in time. We at Lindan Peak are the weakest. I think we should act together so that we can take care of each other." An old man in soap robes whom Zhan Nianchuan had never seen said with a smile. .

To be fair, what he said was not unreasonable, but Zhan Nianchuan did not intend to join forces with them, so he smiled and said:

"Senior brothers, your cultivation is superb, I won't hold you back together."

Hearing Zhan Nianchuan's rejection, several people showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes, and then started talking about how to join forces to snatch it.

Since Zhan Nianchuan did not intend to join forces with them, it was naturally not convenient for Zhan Nianchuan to listen, so he consciously walked aside.

During this trip to the secret realm, his bottom line was to snatch 60 spiritual herbs and elixirs that could be used to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. In this way, after deducting the share for the Yunlan Sect, the sect, and Lindan Peak, he could still have five left over. A piece of spiritual grass can be exchanged for five foundation-building pills.

After a cup of tea, the noisy hall suddenly became quiet.
