Most areas of the ancient battlefield have been abandoned for thousands of years, Spirit Vein is broken, Spiritual Qi is in disorder, and even if there is anything there, most of it has rotted and decayed deep underground.
But everyone in the team did not gain nothing.
While passing through a rocky beach littered with a large number of broken Law Artifact fragments, Liu Suifeng's array disk suddenly flashed several times. He quickly walked to a pile of metal debris half-buried in the gravel, squatted down and dug around for a long time, and picked out a palm-sized bronze fragment from it. The fragment was engraved with dense array patterns. The patterns had long been dimmed, but the structure was intact.
"Golden Core Realm's defensive array fragments." Liu Suifeng wiped the dust on the fragments with his sleeves, and looked very close to carefully identify the patterns on it. "About 70% of the array patterns have been preserved, and the core runes are still there. Although it cannot be completely restored, the pattern structure can be imprinted. This is a type of array pattern that has not been seen before, and it can be used as a reference for learning."
He took out the rubbing Jade Slip and carefully rubbed the Spirit Rune on the fragment. According to him, these lines alone are worth three thousand Spirit Stone upwards.
Lin Chuan found a Storage Bag in a swamp.
It has been too old, and the material of the bag is not very good, and has long been decayed. Most of the things inside have lost their spirituality, and even the Spirit Stone in the bag has Spiritual Qi been lost and turned into ordinary Shitou. Only one Jade Slip was stuck intact in the depths of the mire, exuding weak wood-attribute spiritual power fluctuations, which was keenly captured by Lin Chuan.
Jade Slip is only half the size of a palm. After thousands of years, the surface of Yingying is still glowing with green light. You can tell at a glance that the material is extraordinary.
He placed Jade Slip on his forehead, inserted Divine Sense, and raised his head after a moment with a somewhat surprised expression.
"A incomplete Nascent Soul Realm Swordsmanship, wood attribute, left behind by the Ceremonial Sword Sect." He handed Jade Slip to Du Heng.
Du Heng took it and glanced at it, raising his eyebrows slightly.
Swordsmanship is called "Azure Wood Sword Gang", which is the secret of the Ceremonial Sword Sect thousands of years ago. I don't know whether it was deliberately not recorded or it was originally incomplete. Jade Slip only retains two moves - Sword-Drawing Form and Wind-Breaking Form.
Sword-Drawing Form is a starting sword move, which emphasizes hiding the edge in the scabbard. It uses spiritual power to build up the sword's power on weekdays, and releases it when it is unsheathed, stacking up the power of Sword Qi. Wind-Breaking Form uses the extremely fast sword speed Penetration to defend, and concentrates the accumulated sword power to explode.
The whole sword art is not about being fierce and fierce, but the sword is concentrated to the extreme at the moment when the sword is drawn, and it does not suddenly explode until the moment before it touches the enemy. Use Azure Ribbon with Lin Chuan The sword that pierced the back of Demon Ape's head has the same effect. There should be more powerful sword moves later, but unfortunately they are not recorded in Jade Slip. Only these two moves are considered complete.
"Nascent Soul Realm's Swordsmanship, even if there are only two moves left, few people below Golden Core Realm can defend it after practicing it." Du Heng returned Jade Slip to Lin Chuan, "It's a pity that it's wood attribute, I can't use it. Captain, this is your fortuitous opportunity."
Lin Chuan put Jade Slip away and decided to study it carefully during the evening break.
Qin Tiexin sensed the breath of the spiritual material in a pit that was mostly filled with fallen rocks. Du Heng assisted Law Technique of the earth element to clear away the gravel, and dug out two seven-foot-long stick embryos from the bottom of the pit.
The stick embryo is blue-gray in color and has a rough surface. It has not been refined or engraved by Spirit Rune, but the material itself has obvious wood-attribute spiritual power fluctuations. It is two bronze-grained copper embryos. The impurity content is not low, but the base material is good. If it is re-smelted and purified, Qin Tiexin is confident that it can at least be forged into a mid-grade Law Artifact.
As for the others, most of the furnace Pill Furnace collapsed, with a few dim elixir lines remaining on the furnace wall, but the Pill Furnace itself had been shattered, Repair was of little value; a Foundation Establishment monk cave abode on a cliff, there was still a very faint protection at the entrance of the cave. It is prohibited, but cave abode is located in the area of spiritual power turbulence. To enter, you must cross a zone with dense space cracks, which is not worth the loss. There are also Law Artifact and Jade Slip scattered next to the remains of several monks. They are in ordinary condition, either ordinary goods left by Rogue Cultivator, or most of them have decayed.
The five of them just glanced at each other and continued on their way.
The world of cultivating immortals pays attention to fortuitous opportunity, but it also pays attention to trade-offs. These fortuitous opportunity are either too low in value, too risky, or require a long detour. The time for the Secret Realm Trial assessment is limited, and a round trip of nearly a month seems ample, but it cannot be wasted on these places.
Liu Suifeng marked the valuable locations along the way on the array plate one by one. If you plan to return, you can go back and explore if there is still time.
Two days later, the team climbed over a gray-brown mountain ridge, and the terrain ahead suddenly opened up.
A low-lying valley appeared in front of us, with a small lake in the center.
It was said to be a lake, but it was actually only one foot square, a circle smaller than the backyard pond of a wealthy family. But when the five of them saw the lake from a distance, their steps invariably became faster.
Walking closer, I saw that the lake was as calm as a mirror. The water was not clear. Instead, it showed a very light milky white color, with a thin layer of spiritual mist floating on the water. The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the air near the lake was at least three times that of the outside world. With every breath, you can feel the warm spiritual power seeping into the meridians.
Liu Suifeng put the array disk into the water for a moment, and Spirit Rune flashed rapidly for a few breaths under the water.
He raised his head, with obvious surprise on his face.
"This lake is not natural. There is a Spirit Gathering Formation at the bottom of the lake, and the reaction on the array disk is the standard Gathering Spirit Rune structure. According to common sense, a Spirit Gathering Formation of this size will be a Spirit Stone in the array's eyes will be exhausted after a few years at most. But not only is this formation still running, but it is also slowly absorbing the surrounding free Spiritual Qi. This formation is not maintained by Spirit Stone, but something inside continues to provide energy."
He paused and tapped his fingers twice on the array plate.
"If I guessed correctly, a Golden Core monk should have died here, and Golden Core inside the body will release a large amount of spiritual power during the dissipation process. Fortuitous opportunity By coincidence, these spiritual powers happened to be absorbed by this Spirit Gathering Formation is locked, and due to the war, this area is rich in Spiritual Qi turbulence, and the surrounding spiritual energy is also absorbed here, and it will not be released. Several coincidences are stacked together, and over time, such a spiritual spring is formed. It is rare to encounter but not to seek."
Xu Ying squatted by the lake, dipped a little of the lake water with his fingertips, felt it, and nodded. "It is indeed a spiritual spring. The spiritual power is mild. You can even drink it directly and refine it. It has a good effect on restoring spiritual power and nourishing the meridians. This concentration Lingquan, after thousands of years of accumulation, Spiritual Qi is not much worse than ordinary Lower-Grade Spirit Stone. If this entire lake were packed away, it would be worth at least 30,000 Lower-Grade Spirit Stone! It might even be higher."
"We arrived in time." Liu Suifeng glanced at the formation disk again, "Spirit Gathering Formation under the lake is declining, the concentration of the spiritual mist is slowly decreasing, and the lake surface is shrinking. In addition, the spiritual power turbulence is slowly calming down. At this rate, in another ten years, this spiritual spring will become an ordinary lake."
Hearing this, the five people hurriedly looked for the jade bottle from the storage Law Artifact. This kind of spiritual spring that had been enriched by Spirit Gathering Formation for countless years could directly replenish spiritual power, be used as medicine to make elixirs, and water Spirit Plant. It was a good thing for any monk. If you missed this one, it would be almost impossible to find the same spiritual spring in the future.
Lin Chuan was about to take out the container of water when he suddenly frowned, quickly pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and looked towards the other side of the lake.
Qin Tiexin took half a step forward at the same time, turning his body slightly to block Liu Suifeng and Xu Ying.
Six figures walked out from behind the hillside on the other side of the lake.
