Breakthrough
The fatigue Qin Ming felt after the battle vanished instantly, as if he had taken a tonic. His listless Essence, Qi, and Spirit was instantly restored, and even though he was injured and covered in blood, he was still full of energy.
"What a wonderful place!" he exclaimed, his injuries seemingly less painful now.
The stone gate behind the two slowly closed, but the interior of the Mountains and Rivers Spirit Nest was not dim; spiritual light rose from the earth's veins.
Although there are stone tables and Bronze Lamp in the Spirit Nest, the whole structure is naturally formed.
A pool lay across the way, within which two kinds of spiritual light intertwined, like two fish chasing each other.
A crack in the Mountains and Rivers Spirit Nest spews out smoke and mist shaped like a large tree, splashing out streaks of light like fallen leaves drifting down here.
The Spirit Nest is less than 100 square meters, and there are some strange patterns on the stone walls. Upon closer inspection, they are actually natural Cloud Pattern, and some even resemble characters.
Li Qingyue spoke up, "Characters formed by natural textures are most admired by those Beyond the Mundane People, who can glean some extraordinary power from them."
She was no longer so listless; her condition was improving, and her eyes regained their sparkle. The tattered silver armor contrasted with her snow-white skin, creating a strange and unconventional beauty.
"Can you recover?" Qin Ming asked with concern.
"No problem, perhaps we can even go further." Li Qingyue nodded, her Consciousness Spirit Light, and Yellow Court Tingzhong was also revitalized.
"That's good." Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
He then asked, "My Essence, Qi, and Spirit are getting stronger and stronger, as if I'm drinking a lot of tonics. What's going on?"
Li Qingyue smiled and said, "There is a special substance here, or rather, a strange power, that stimulates the human Mental Field. Don't worry, the edge of the Spirit Nest won't harm us; it's harmless and will only turn things around for the better." The first realm for those Beyond the Mundane People realm is the Mind Fast, which requires opening the Consciousness Spirit Light and is related to the Mental Field. This is their foundation.
The importance that the Beyond-the-Mundane Dao Tradition places on the Spirit Nest is mainly related to these areas.
Qin Ming was surprised and asked, "This is just the edge area?"
Li Qingyue nodded and said, "Okay, take your time to adjust. If there are no problems, you can try coming into the core area with me."
She is currently seriously injured and dares not immediately venture into the depths of the Mountains and Rivers Spirit Nest; she needs to recover here.
Qin Ming nodded. Being here was already like taking a tonic; what would happen if he entered the core area of Spirit Nest? He was quite looking forward to it.
He carefully observed inside the cave and was astonished to find natural Flying Immortal Picture on some of the stone walls, which were quite spectacular.
He muttered to himself, "Could those folk tales have originated from seeing this natural texture?"
Li Qingyue said, "Those Beyond the Mundane People only talk about Near-Immortal, but never about ascending to immortality; their ultimate goal is to Truth Seeking."
"It has a profound meaning!" Qin Ming pondered for a moment.
During the pioneering period, the incredible and powerful creatures that various groups discovered deep within the Night Mist World were simply referred to as Near-Immortal beings or Godlike.
Li Qingyue clearly had also thought of something, and said, "We need to work hard to improve ourselves. The population is growing rapidly, and the Advanced Fire Spring are almost insufficient. When the giant cities need to expand, we will probably have to venture into the depths of the Night Mist World to explore. The Great Pioneering Era offers both unlimited opportunities and various adventures."
"Yes!" Qin Ming nodded solemnly.
He had heard Meng Xinghai mention these things before; the future was likely to be a great era filled with glory, bloodshed, brilliance, and tragedy, fraught with uncertainty.
Qin Ming used the Silk Book Method to heal his injuries. Nourished by the strange substances within the Spirit Nest, he recovered quickly, and his essence, Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit were exceptionally abundant.
Li Qingyue said, "It seems you're quite comfortable here. Come with me into the core area of Spirit Nest and try it out. If you feel any pain, just say so, and I'll send you out immediately."
Now she is radiant, her pale face has regained its luminous glow, and she is once again ethereal and otherworldly, like Heavenly Immortal clad in broken armor.
"I don't think it's a big problem," Qin Ming said.
Li Qingyue smiled and said nothing. She used the Divine Rosy Radiance born from the Yellow Court to strike a stone slab on the ground that was engraved with dense runes.
As the Immortal Mist spread and spiritual light intertwined, this place quickly opened up, revealing the second layer of the realm, which was also the core of the Mountains-and-Rivers Secret Nest, and had been hidden before.
Li Qingyue floated down lightly, took a deep breath after landing, and the shattered silver armor on her body clanged and resonated with her.
She used Secret Method to heal her wounds and completely relaxed.
Qin Ming saw that there were numerous points of light distributed in the void within the stone cave below.
He landed in the core area of the second level of the Mountains and Rivers Spirit Nest, and instantly felt dizzy and unsteady on his feet, almost falling over there.
