Sacrifice

On the fourth floor of Yunming Palace, He Lingfeng led the group of snakes behind to destroy the entire first floor. Later, he accidentally met three monks who practiced Qi on the tenth floor, and was blocked by these three monks. It is considered to escape from the pursuit of the group of snakes.

However, in view of his cheating behavior before, the chasing after him has naturally changed from a snake to a human--it's really sad.

As a last resort, He Lingfeng had no choice but to head towards the second floor in a miserable manner.

Generally speaking, ordinary Qi-refining monks can get three to five harvests on the first floor, and there are also cunning people who will guard on the first floor to rob and attack in order to increase their own harvest. He Lingfeng can't do that. After the sneak attack, he was chased and killed by the monks who stayed on the first floor, so his harvest on the first floor was only one Nine Flame Heart Lotus.

Playing with the Huiling Pill in his hand, this is the last bottle. When he bought it in Fangshi, he did not expect to be chased so badly. He Lingfeng was entangled, what would he do if he encountered similar pursuits again? ah! ?

It's useless to think too much, put away the spirit pill, and He Lingfeng began to check the Nine Flame Heart Lotus. Before collecting it, he could only pick it roughly with a dragon's claw. If the Nine Flame Heart Lotus was crushed by him, then he really wanted to No more tears.

Fortunately, God still took care of him. The five-petal lotus was not damaged too much, but the rhizome was a little withered, and the root was damaged a lot when it was picked too rough, but the flower head was intact.

He Lingfeng let out a long breath, put away the lotus, and looked at the palace in front of him.

Starting from Zhengyang Palace, it is the second floor. The first and most troublesome thing is to enter the gate of Zhengyang Palace.

The gate of Zhengyang Palace is not like the gate of Yunming Palace. The gate of Zhengyang Palace has its own formation, and you can't enter even if you break the formation. Only after passing the test of the formation can you enter the second floor. The content of the test There are all kinds of strange things, and the methods that have been spread are different, and it is impossible to refer to them at all.

He Lingfeng didn't have much burden, because the formation was quite weird, if he didn't pass the formation, he would just be sent back to the first floor, and there was no loss.

He gripped the stick tightly and walked in.

As soon as I entered, I saw a lonely path, and there was nothing on both sides of the path, just white mist.

Holding a stick in one hand, He Lingfeng walked forward slowly with the other across his chest.

Walking and walking, the road ahead is always covered by white mist, the rugged path seems to have no end, the fog on both sides is vast, and there is no trace of scenery. If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely feel anxious and then bored.

He Lingfeng walked step by step, silently reciting the Tripitaka in his heart, the scriptures flowed across his heart like flowing water, becoming clearer and calmer, and the spiritual power that was lost before gradually recovered, and gradually, he only felt the spiritual power in his body jumping up , it seems that there are signs of breakthrough again.

He Lingfeng suppressed the urge to break through. Several times he started to break through when he was fighting with others or fleeing for his life. In order to stabilize his foundation, he mostly suppressed the breakthrough, which made his advancement speed slower.

However, He Lingfeng thinks this is very good. He has a very good spiritual root talent. If he cultivates quickly, his foundation will be unstable in the future, and the higher he goes, the harder it will be to break through.

The road in front of me is still increasing. He Lingfeng began to think about the problems in cultivation after reading the scriptures. The rosary on his chest has not been lit since that day. Worrying, but not serious.

After thinking about Fajing, he began to worry about Teng Xiaohong again. It has been two months since Xiaohong began to retreat, and there is still no sign of leaving the customs. He Lingfeng feels quite guilty, if it is not for his own cultivation It's too low to suppress Teng Xiaohong, I'm afraid Xiaohong has advanced to the foundation building stage now, um... Maybe he shouldn't suppress the breakthrough opportunity, or he should advance here?

He Lingfeng did as soon as he thought about it, he didn't leave at all, he looked around, it was still the same white mist, he simply sat cross-legged, put the stick by his hand, took out a spirit recovery pill, and actually started to break through! !

If ordinary people saw this scene, they would probably vomit blood with anger. I'm afraid no one would have thought of it, even the sages who built the Yunming Palace back then couldn't imagine that someone would break through when they broke the formation, right?

This formation is born to test the mind, those who are not strong-willed cannot enter the second floor, if the monks who enter the formation leave that path, the phantom will be aggravated, the formation contains vengeful spirits, and it is easy to arouse demons. Most of the monks were trapped in the formation, and they could only leave in the end.

But He Lingfeng was originally determined, clear as glass, immovable as a mountain, he had a lot of distracting thoughts in his heart, but he didn't take these distracting thoughts as a harm. With ignorance as the core, those resentful spirits couldn't catch his inner demons at all, and even became food for his prajna energy outside his body, and the flames of the golden body protection burning brighter and brighter all over his body.

The breakthrough is very smooth. For He Lingfeng, low-level advancement is as simple as drinking water. Most of the heavenly roots are cultivated quickly, and they can reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining within a year. He Lingfeng's speed is already considered slow. up.

Breaking through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, the spiritual power in He Lingfeng's body has become as viscous as thick liquid, and the fiery red spiritual power has become more active and agile. It's time to consider advanced foundation building.

He got up, stretched his waist, and finally understood why cultivators often retreat for a hundred years. The main reason is that the concept of time is too thin. After looking around, it was still white mist. Dispensable mentality, began to move on.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, the sky was bright, it was a crescent-shaped arch, and there was a plaque on the arch, which was written to Wuyi Garden. He Lingfeng blinked. If he remembered correctly, the upper layer of the public map marked However, Wuyi Garden seems to belong to the second floor?

So, he has entered the second floor?

When he turned his head, the way he came from disappeared without a trace, and turned into a forest with no end in sight.

Inexplicably finished the first floor, inexplicably got out of the guard formation, and inexplicably stood on the second floor...

——He Lingfeng touched his chin, tsk, how do you feel, this Yunming Palace is quite simple~

Now that he came in, He Lingfeng walked forward naturally, passing through the crescent-shaped arch, there was a small garden in which various spiritual plants bloomed. These spiritual plants looked very beautiful, but they were useless. Most cultivators didn't bother to look at it, but He Lingfeng was an exception. After carefully looking at these spiritual plants, he took out Teng Xiaohong's avatar. This vine was released by He Lingfeng just now. On the ground, he twisted.

Under the guidance of Teng Xiaohong's instinct, He Lingfeng harvested part of one of the plants with purple body, wide leaves and pitch-black vines, and picked a few small red fruits from the branches of a short tree. .

After putting away the Lingzhi, He Lingfeng's eyes fell on a small building in the garden.

The appearance of the small building is exquisite, worthy of two floors. He Lingfeng walked closer and saw the plaque on the small building. The plaque said Yunzhu Pavilion. The name seemed to be the boudoir of his daughter's house. He Lingfeng stopped in his footsteps , with some hesitation.

But thinking about it in a blink of an eye, this Yunming Palace has been open for so long, even if there is any estimate, it has been searched long ago, and the owner in the attic must have long since disappeared. It seems that there is no need for him to avoid suspicion.

Walking into the small building, the first floor is the meeting place, facing a carved screen, there are two desks on both sides of the screen, there are vases on the desks, and there are a few flowers in the vases, which seem to have just been picked. There is even dew.

Going around the screen, there are several chairs on both sides of the hall, and a picture of a lady is hung in the center. The lady in the picture is standing on the top of a high mountain, facing the wind and looking into the distance. It is just a simple back view, but it reveals desolation and hopelessness. feeling.

There is an inscription in the lower right corner of the lady's picture, and the letter Luoxia Fairy is painted on the top of Luopan Mountain.

He Lingfeng reckoned that this Fairy Luoxia was the owner of the attic. He held a stick in one hand and a salute in the other, and saluted earnestly. After saluting, he turned around and was about to leave.

He came to Yunming Palace not for the magic weapon or the spiritual object, he just came here to take refuge and cultivate, not to mention that since he stepped into the journey of cultivation, he has never lacked spirit stones and magic weapons, ten or so groups of six-level five-element stones and two small orange weapons , a set of wasteland reclamation Daming Palace equipment that was refined to 6 equipment points up to 7200 by smashing stones, so that he didn't need to look for magic weapons of spirit stones at all.

There is no greed in his heart, and he acts naturally and frankly. Although Fajing once called He Lingfeng dull and pedantic, his face is full of pride.

It seems that the owner of the attic did not expect that someone would not be tempted by the spiritual treasure at all, but just came in to have a look, and then left after saluting, so it was not until He Lingfeng really walked to the door of Crescent Moon and really left that the whole attic spread out. There was a burst of light.

He Lingfeng heard the sound of the wind behind his head, turned his head quickly, and saw that the whole attic was gradually disappearing into nothingness, the scroll of pictures of ladies he had seen before flew in front of him, and the woman overlooking from the painting slowly turned back, Smile at him, "Good boy."

In the next second, He Lingfeng's eyes went dark, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already in a palace.

The palace is very big, and there are several people inside, one of them is the old Mei who I saw outside the Yunming Palace, and several practitioners, and the little girl Qingque and her senior brothers and sisters are still standing scattered. Looking at the three cultivators, it seems that they entered alone.

The moment He Lingfeng came in, everyone looked at him.

There was a moment of silence in the arena.

But after seeing He Lingfeng, everyone was surprised.

The person who came in was not tall, reaching his waist, wearing a huge bamboo hat, his face could not be seen clearly, he was wearing a black shirt, carrying a bag behind his back, holding a stick in his hand, and a string of rosary beads hanging around his neck. Because there is only the ninth level of Qi Refining, it doesn't seem very strong.

With such cultivation, he came to the third floor of Yunming Palace alone...

Old Mei smiled, "Here comes another fellow Taoist, what suggestions do you have?"

He Lingfeng looked bewildered, and after looking for a long time, he realized that there was a platform directly in front of the palace, and on the platform were a magic weapon, a bottle, and a jade slip.

The magic weapon exudes a radiant light, I can't see what it is, but just by looking at the halo, I know it is a good thing.

The bottle was obviously filled with pills, and it was reckoned to be the Juyuan Pill that Mr. Mei needed, and Mr. Mei's eyes fell on the bottle from time to time, with a look of certainty.

And that jade slip was inconspicuous at all, but no one thought it was useless when it was put together with the magic treasure bottle.

Qing Que waved at He Lingfeng again and again, "Brother He, here, here!!"

He Lingfeng tilted his head, approached Qingque cautiously, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Qing Que said cheerfully, "Senior brother and sister and I entered the third floor, and we saw the table as soon as we entered the palace. Everyone is grabbing the things on the table~"

She ran to He Lingfeng and looked at him curiously, "Brother He, how did you get in? Brother said that the third floor is very difficult to enter! We just searched for the entrance for a long time!"

He Lingfeng looked puzzled, "Is it difficult? I just entered the second floor and walked around in the garden of a small building. When I went out, I stepped on the empty space and came in..."
