Vast Dragon-Offering, Dao-Mystic Spirit Stele
On Deer Cry Peak, the sky shines brightly.
Above the Void, three great suns shone with dazzling light, falling upon the phantom of the Divine Deer and illuminating the entire land with golden rays, making it resemble a fairyland.
Yuan Lingyu stared at Chen Lingxi with wide, bright eyes, which revealed her worry.
Chen Lingxi stood up and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Are you feeling any better, Senior Brother?" Yuan Lingyu leaned closer, carefully examined Chen Lingxi, and then quickly took out a wooden box from the Hongdong Bag at her waist.
The wooden box exuded a pleasant fragrance and was surrounded by a myriad of spiritual lights, making it appear quite extraordinary.
"Senior brother, keep this Life-Nourishing Pill with you at all times. If the lightning fails again, you can take this pill and won't suffer as much."
Yuan Lingyu opened the wooden box with concern in her voice.
Chen Lingxi immediately saw a black pill emitting an amazing medicinal fragrance, and could vaguely see runes swirling around the pill, with many layers of hand seals constantly emerging.
Without a doubt, this must be a very valuable elixir, of astonishing quality.
When Chen Lingxi Total Perception Evolution, Yuan Lingyu had given him this pill, but Chen Lingxi was quite ignorant at the time and did not accept it.
Now that Chen Lingxi has come to Deer-Sleeping Peak in the mortal world, knowing that the reason for his visit lies in the Purple Cloud Cauldron Vessel of True Person Xiang Shu Fate-Evolving Purple Radiance, he feels no burden in his heart.
He nodded slightly. "In that case, thank you, Junior Sister Lingyu."
Chen Lingxi took the wooden box containing the pills and put it into her Hongdong Bag.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Lingyu's eyes. She looked around and said, "Senior Brother's cave abode has already been destroyed by the Thunder Prison."
I happened to have some free time these past few days, so I found a cave abode for my senior brother.
Although it cannot compare to the Wondrous Void Abode, it possesses its own unique Fourfold Profound Spirit Vein, coupled with the abundant Spiritual Qi of Deer-Sleeping Peak, which should be sufficient for daily cultivation."
The two of them then rode the clouds and mist over several mountain peaks, arriving at a mountain.
The mountain was quite high, with craggy rocks and vegetation covering the entire mountain, and the dense, lush canopy of trees could be vaguely seen.
Following the direction Yuan Lingyu pointed, Chen Lingxi saw a clear spring gurgling, with a waterfall cascading down at the end of the spring, its momentum so great it seemed to be a thousand feet high.
And that cave abode is located right there by the waterfall.
It resembles a Water-Curtain Cave.
Chen Lingxi and Yuan Lingyu crossed the waterfall and entered the cave abode, where they saw that Yuan Lingyu had already taken good care of cave abode.
There was a bed, a futon, and several Night Spirit Stone that shimmered with a bright light, illuminating the cave.
The stone walls inside the cave had long been polished by Yuan Lingyu's Divine Ability, making them smooth and spotless.
The sunlight filtering through the waterfall creates a rather elegant and warm atmosphere.
"Junior sister is so thoughtful."
Chen Lingxi stood in the cave abode, his figure appearing somewhat thin in his black robes.
He turned around and bowed to Yuan Lingyu, his eyes filled with sincerity.
Yuan Lingyu was dressed in a white gauze dress, with her long hair draped behind her head. Her face was fair and she had a smile on her face.
She turned her head and waved her hand at Chen Lingxi: "Senior brother, I'm working so hard not without ulterior motives."
Chen Lingxi asked, "What does Junior Sister want?"
Yuan Lingyu tilted her head back and laughed, "Senior brother, my Rain Palace is over a hundred miles away, and the cave abode of my senior brothers and sisters are also quite far away."
If I encounter any difficulties in my spiritual practice in the future, I will need to ask my senior brother for guidance.
Chen Lingxi nodded calmly and agreed.
Yuan Lingyu thought for a moment, then went to her cave abode again and brought back two Spirit Plant.
"One of these two Spirit Plant is called the Filth-Expelling Spirit Grass, and the other is called the Qi-Attracting Scarlet Bloom."
Placed in cave abode, it not only brings life to the place but also cleanses away impurities and attracts fresh Spiritual Qi.
It's not exactly a treasure, but it's quite practical.
Yuan Lingyu took care of the cave abode meticulously before bidding farewell and leaving.
Chen Lingxi saw Yuan Lingyu out of the cave abode, her eyes gradually calming down.
He looked inward.
There were many remnants of out-of-control lightning on the Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform, and the Profound Root Tree and Wondrous Fruit appeared somewhat withered.
"My Golden Grotto Master certainly put on a complete act."
Chen Lingxi pondered for a moment, then closed her eyes to heal her wounds.
He activated the Dragon-Stripping True-Transformation One-Qi True Art, continuously refining the surrounding Spiritual Qi.
In an instant, he felt the surrounding Spiritual Qi was incredibly thick, like a surging river. He only needed to circulate his true technique at will, and like a dragon drawing water, the Spiritual Qi would surge in and fall into his Dao Platform.
Chen Lingxi's eyes lit up slightly.
"Cultivating here is no less valuable than my daily cultivation through Immortal Husk."
Immortal Husk is extremely precious, even attracting the covetousness of True Person Immortals, and even aspiring to the greed of Xuanmen (master sects) capable of Golden Core True Lord.
However, Chen Lingxi's cultivation level was too weak.
In his hands, the Immortal Husk was like a spiritual herb.
He could only rely on the limited Spiritual Qi contained within the Immortal Husk for cultivation, and was almost completely unable to unleash the power of the Immortal Husk.
For example, in the Dao-Below Academy, if one achieves Immortal Husk, one can use the Academy's Cauldron Vessel and profound techniques to create a Nine-Transformation Treasure Body, which is unparalleled in its mystery.
For example, Emperor Daye Ying Xian of the Great Ye Dynasty!
He obtained the Mountains-and-Rivers Grand Formation from an unknown source. With the Volcano Immortal Pivot as its foundation and the Immortal Husk as its core, it enabled his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds, and made his foundation profound and extraordinary.
Although this immortal Immortal Husk is an inexhaustible elixir for Chen Lingxi, he is far from being able to fully realize Immortal Husk precious value.
"Very well, I'll be leading the Great Xuanzhuo Realm Dragon-Offering Sect, even though my cultivation level isn't particularly high."
There are countless beings stronger than me, possessing numerous profound and wondrous supernatural Divine Ability and countless magical Cauldron Vessel.
One could easily fall into the immense power of the Cauldron Vessel, thus revealing one's true strength.
"In the past, without the Immortal Husk, my cultivation progress would have been much slower."
But now that I'm on Deer-Sleeping Peak, with such abundant Spiritual Qi, I don't need to rely on the Immortal Husk for the time being. I can just hide myself well."
As Chen Lingxi pondered, his thoughts drifted into the Divine Chamber.
Within the Void of the Divine Chamber, amidst the clouds, the Immortal Husk floated peacefully in the air.
"I have stored the Immortal Husk in my Divine Chamber. Even if it is True Person, or even True Lord or Great Sage, you should not be able to see through it."
As long as I don't actively reveal it, no one in the world will know that I possess Immortal Husk.
Chen Lingxi felt relieved and continued to close her eyes to heal her injuries.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Lingxi from the cave abode and stood atop the mountain. The sunlight from the three great suns shone upon him, casting three shadows.
Just then, Yuan Lingyu came to deliver a message.
Chen Lingxi made another trip to the main hall of Deer-Sleeping Peak, and under the illusory image of the Divine Deer, met with True Person Xiang Shu.
It was just like the time of Total Perception Evolution.
The True Person Xiang Shu's gaze was gentle, his expression kind and his words earnest. He then bestowed upon the Immortal a Divine Ability Jade and a Divine Ability artifact.
During this time, Chen Lingxi observed carefully but did not notice that True Person Xiang Shu revealed the slightest evil intention.
He felt that this True Person was extremely cunning, and then took his leave.
They encountered Shen Xiu'an again on the road.
A Sword Talisman hung in the air, its sword light radiating outwards, dazzling and brilliant.
A powerful Sword Qi was brewing within it, its killing power was astonishing.
Even though Chen Lingxi had seen this Sword Talisman before during his Total Perception Evolution, he was still amazed by the terrifying combat power of his senior brother Shen Xiu'an when he saw it again.
"This person's cultivation level is probably at the Dao Foundation Perfection Stage."
He cultivates great sword Divine Ability, and in terms of Killing Power, he is far stronger than any Dao Foundation Realm cultivator I have ever seen."
Chen Lingxi was wary, but still accepted the Sword Talisman.
At the moment of evolution... Total Perception shattered here, and Chen Lingxi returned to the present world.
In this world, time continues to flow quietly.
Chen Lingxi and Shen Xiu'an walked side by side in the clouds. Shen Xiu'an spoke softly, "Since you joined my Deer Cry Peak, you have never left."
The six inner peaks outside of Deer-Sleeping Peak, and even many of the upper peaks, have never known that Deer-Sleeping Peak has a disciple like you.
Spirit Bearer.
You are exceptionally talented and have mastered the extremely difficult-to-cultivate Thunder-Prison Heaven Divine Ability; your Killing Power is beyond question.
With such profound knowledge and experience, it would be detrimental to remain confined to the mountain gates and work in isolation.
Shen Xiu'an frowned slightly as he finished speaking.
"The seven inner peaks of the Dragon-Offering Sect are not a monolithic entity, especially now that there have been changes within the sect, and the rules have quietly changed."
Going forward, we must strive to obtain all the elixirs and cultivation resources allocated by the Dragon-Offering Sect.
However, the successive deaths of my two senior uncles from Deer-Sleeping Peak, and the fall of your four senior brothers and sisters, have greatly reduced the strength of Deer-Sleeping Peak, making it the weakest among the seven inner peaks.
You'd better strive to achieve your goal and ascend to the Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking as soon as possible."
Chen Lingxi nodded slightly.
At that moment, Shen Xiu'an flicked his finger, and another Spirit Crystal appeared in the air.
"This is the Immortal Veneration Stone," Shen Xiu'an said. "Your cultivation has gone astray, so use this stone to nourish your Dao Platform and Profound Root."
The injuries can be completely healed in less than a month.
Before Chen Lingxi could speak, a flash of sword light appeared beneath his feet. The refined-looking but extremely cold-blooded swordsman transformed into a streak of light, piercing through the clouds and disappearing without a trace.
Only Chen Lingxi and the Immortal Veneration Stone remained.
Chen Lingxi was somewhat surprised.
This senior brother Shen was extremely concerned about him.
"Unfortunately... all of this stems from the Cauldron Vessel."
Chen Lingxi her head slightly, accepted the Immortal Veneration Stone, and returned to her Water-Curtain Cave.
Time slips away quietly.
January has passed in a flash.
Chen Lingxi opened his eyes that day, the Immortal Veneration Stone that Shen Xiu'an had given him was still hanging in the air, shining with dazzling light.
Chen Lingxi's Dao Platform Profound Root has been completely restored, and the Dao Origin flowing within the Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform has even become slightly deeper.
Chen Lingxi in satisfaction.
Just then, a Divine Sense suddenly flowed in from outside the waterfall.
"Senior brother!"
Chen Lingxi didn't need to think much to know that the person who came was his junior sister Yuan Lingyu.
For the past month, Yuan Lingyu has been extremely concerned about and took good care of Chen Lingxi. Seeing that Chen Lingxi's black clothes were worn out, she even went down the mountain herself to several cities under the jurisdiction of Deer-Sleeping Peak to sew him a few cultivator robes.
What Chen Lingxi is wearing now is...
Chen Lingxi was already exceptionally handsome, but his usual black attire had somewhat overshadowed his brilliance.
Now, Chen Lingxi's splendid robes, with a base of pure black and gold patterns, resembled a sun rising on a moonless night.
It perfectly captures the spirit of Chen Lingxi.
When Chen Lingxi heard that Yuan Lingyu had arrived, a slight smile appeared on her lips.
With a flick of his sleeve, a thick surge of Dao Origin swept out, evolving into the Heaven-Seizing Seal Divine Ability, transforming into two enormous handprints that swept across the sky.
Suddenly, the waterfall appeared like a curtain, creating a passageway.
Yuan Lingyu did not come in, but instead said, "Senior brother, come with me to the Heaven-Nurturing Hall on the main peak."
Today is the day when the Dragon-Offering Main Sect's [cauldron] appears.
Dingxian?
Chen Lingxi's eyes flickered slightly.
Within the Fate-Evolving Purple Radiance, memories woven from the many Cauldron Vessel surge forth.
The so-called "appearance of the cauldron" means, as the name suggests, the manifestation of the cauldron and Cauldron Vessel of the Dragon-Offering Main Sect.
The Dragon-Offering Main Sect possesses a Cauldron Vessel called the [Dao-Mystic Spirit Stele]!
This Cauldron Vessel is extraordinary; it can observe many profound spiritual mechanisms and mysterious fortuitous opportunity within a vast area.
Every three years, the Dragon-Offering Main Sect activates the Dao-Mystic Spirit Stele and manifests the fortuitous opportunity observed by this Cauldron Vessel on two hundred peaks of the Dragon-Offering Sect, according to their value!
Ordinary fortuitous opportunity can be found at the lower peaks.
The fortuitous opportunity for advancement is evident at the summit.
The fortuitous opportunity encountered on the inner peak are undoubtedly profound and precious.
And today marks the occasion of the triennial culmination.
Intrigued, Chen Lingxi left the cave abode and, together with Yuan Lingyu, stepped onto the clouds, heading towards the vast phantom of the Divine Deer.
Beneath the phantom of the Divine Deer, there were numerous suspended palaces.
One of the palaces was like crystal, sparkling and incomparably magnificent.
Chen Lingxi stepped into the palace.
Then they saw a beam of spiritual light intertwining and manifesting in the very center of the palace, transforming into a Spirit Stele.
Before this divine light, a woman with a precious cauldron hanging above her head was looking down at it.
"Yan Shu"
Yuan Lingyu and Chen Lingxi greetings together.
Of the seven inner peaks of the Dragon-Offering Sect, Deer-Sleeping Peak is currently the weakest, with only six disciples at the Dao Foundation Perfection Stage.
Of these six people, three were disciples of the two elders from Deer-Sleeping Peak.
Unfortunately, both elders have passed away for reasons unknown.
And this Yan Shu was a disciple under one of the elders.
But this Yan Shu Sister Yan Shu had her hair loosely tied up, secured with just a plain silver hairpin. She was plain-looking, with delicate eyebrows, thin lips, and a face so white it was almost transparent.
At this moment, the senior sister saw Yuan Lingyu and Chen Lingxi, nodded slightly, and then looked at the spiritual light.
Right now.
In the distance, numerous glimmers of light and clouds appeared and converged in this direction.
Chen Lingxi looked up and her pupils contracted slightly.
He had heard several times that Deer-Sleeping Peak was the weakest inner peak of the Dragon-Offering Sect, but seeing it today...
But above the Void, there were hundreds of beams of Mystic Light and primordial energy.
Above each of these Mystic Light clouds was a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator.
The vast majority of these Dao Foundation Realm cultivators were at the Dao Foundation Early Stage, but there were also some experts at the Second Profound and Third Profound levels of the Profound Realm.
These powerful figures landed inside the palace and first bowed to Yan Shu, Chen Lingxi, and Yuan Lingyu.
Chen Lingxi and Yuan Lingyu were weak in cultivation.
However, as a disciple of the Peak Master, his status was naturally extraordinary.
"No wonder Dragon-Offering Sect can govern an area of tens of millions of miles, and can be called a behemoth in the Nine-Towers Land!"
This kind of foundation is even more powerful than that of the Dao-Below Academy, or even cultivation forces like the Quexing Xi Family and the Yutai Bai Family."
Chen Lingxi's eyes were burning.
"Within the Nine-Towers Land, only the Southern Heaven Domain and the Calamity Sea can be compared to the Dragon-Offering Sect."
As Chen Lingxi was pondering, she saw another radiant light suddenly appear in the distance.
One of them was imbued with crisscrossing Sword Qi, sharp and deadly, utterly terrifying.
It was none other than the eldest disciple Shen Xiu'an.
