Volume 2: Secret Realm Reincarnation Chapter 149: An Old Friend from the Corpse Demon Cult
Li Xuanfeng took out all the items from the storage rings of the man and woman from the Hehuan Sect, and also picked up the fallen deer-shaped ice sculpture.
Then Li Xuanfeng handed the deer-shaped ice sculpture to Shen Luoyan. During the previous battle, he had seen that this ice sculpture was a good magic weapon at the Lingdan level.
The ice sculpture collapsed under his condensed magic of burning tiger, and even after being hit by his full-strength punch, it still did not shatter. This was enough to show how powerful this ice sculpture was!
Shen Luoyan happily accepted it, with a cunning look in his eyes, and the idea in his heart became more firm!
In the battle just now, the man almost used up all the magic weapons in his storage ring in order to save his life, and the woman was captured by Li Xuanfeng before she could use them, and almost all of them were preserved, including a lot of magic weapons, formations, and elixirs.
The five spirit crystals also returned to Li Xuanfeng's hands again, and he was ready to break through the spirit pill realm again!
"Senior Sister, please continue to help me protect the Dharma!" Li Xuanfeng said softly. He knew that Shen Luoyan had felt , so this was another chance for her to regain her confidence.
"No problem, just focus on your breakthrough, I'll take care of everything!" Shen Luoyan said proudly. Li Xuanfeng was a little helpless, not knowing where her confidence came from. Although her cultivation and combat power were not high, she would risk her life to protect him!
The two of them came to a mountain top again. He took out the formation jade slip of the woman from the Hehuan Sect and set up the formation. His formation jade slip had been broken by the two people from the Hehuan Sect before.
Li Xuanfeng sat cross-legged on the top of the mountain and began to recover the spiritual power in his body. Although the battle was safe and sound and his injuries were not serious and recovered quickly, the loss of spiritual power and physical strength was enormous.
He needs to restore his spiritual power to its peak state before making a breakthrough, otherwise these five spirit crystals may not be enough for him to break through.
Shen Luoyan was still standing not far from him, vigilantly observing the situation around him.
This time, it doesn't take Li Xuanfeng a long time to break through. His cultivation has reached the Half-Step Lingdan Realm. Now he is no longer worried about whether someone will come to snatch the spirit crystal. In the time it takes for the snatcher to break through the formation, Li Xuanfeng is confident that he will break through to the Lingdan Realm!
If anyone comes to rob it, he will never return!
Because it was only a spirit crystal of the Lingdan Realm, the people who came to snatch it had cultivation levels of at most the Lingdan Realm. After Li Xuanfeng's cultivation level broke through to the Lingdan Realm, he had the confidence that he could fight even if he was at the late Lingdan Realm!
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed and the spiritual power in Li Xuanfeng's body had recovered to its peak. The spiritual power in his body was restrained and not released, and he seemed to have entered an extremely peaceful state.
Then Li Xuanfeng waved his right hand, and five spirit crystals instantly appeared in front of him. At the same time, an extremely powerful devouring force burst out from his body. The spiritual power in the spirit crystals instantly dissipated and merged into his body!
It's not just the spiritual power in the spirit crystal, there's also a large amount of spiritual power around the top of the mountain that continuously flows towards Li Xuanfeng and is absorbed into his body.
This is why Li Xuanfeng chose to break through at the top of the mountain, because it is easier to attract spiritual power between heaven and earth at the top of the mountain.
At this time, the spiritual base in his Dantian began to shrink again, and the outline of the round pill in the center of the spiritual base began to continue to expand, and the spiritual energy within it became stronger and stronger!
Under Shen Luoyan's nervous attention, a stick of incense time passed in an instant, and the spiritual foundation in Li Xuanfeng's dantian had completely disappeared, leaving only an apple-sized spiritual pill!
The spiritual energy in the elixir is extremely rich, as if it is about to turn into a solid state. It is several times stronger than the previous spiritual base!
If an outsider saw this elixir, he would be shocked, because this elixir is somewhat different from others!
First of all, this elixir is two or three times larger than other elixir pills in the early stage, which is almost the same as that of cultivators in the late stage of the elixir realm!
This elixir is made up of five colors, and each color exudes a spiritual energy!
This is the legendary Five Elements Pill!
Not only that, in addition to the five colors of the elixir, there is also lightning power constantly flowing on the surface and inside, which is the spiritual power of thunder attribute!
For ordinary elixirs, having two colors is already considered good, having three colors is already a genius, and having four colors is enough to be called a monstrous talent!
Fortunately, Li Xuanfeng's spiritual power attributes have been hidden by the spell of the Five Elements Venerable. Even if someone senses the elixir in his body at this time, there are only four colors.
If his enemies knew that he had the six-colored elixir in his body, they would hunt him down at all costs and strangle Li Xuanfeng in the cradle, otherwise there would be endless troubles!
Because most spiritual powers have corresponding restraining attributes, the more spiritual power attributes in the body, if you can master the method of using it skillfully, it will greatly increase your combat power!
The Five Elements Method is the pinnacle of these techniques!
As his cultivation level broke through to the Lingdan realm, Li Xuanfeng's spiritual awareness also increased greatly. It was now enough to cover a range of a thousand feet. However, when a normal cultivator breaks through to the Lingdan realm, his spiritual awareness can only cover a range of about five hundred feet!
This is Li Xuanfeng's solid foundation, which has already begun to show its scale in the Spiritual Foundation Realm!
Spiritual awareness grows with the strength of the spiritual foundation or spiritual elixir, and the powerful spiritual power in Li Xuanfeng's spiritual elixir has surpassed other cultivators in the middle stage of the spiritual elixir realm as soon as he broke through!
Li Xuanfeng slowly opened his eyes, and lightning and five-colored spiritual power flashed by. The aura on his body caused the power of heaven and earth to violently turbulent, making the practitioners within hundreds of feet nearby notice it instantly!
Then Li Xuanfeng took another deep breath, and a large amount of spiritual power gathered at the top of the mountain and entered his body, stabilizing his newly broken through cultivation level.
Two cultivators nearby sensed the aura of this place and rushed over in surprise. After clearly noticing the aura of the Lingdan realm on Li Xuanfeng, they smiled, clasped their fists and bowed, then turned around and left again.
One of these two men was at the Lingdan realm, and the other had only reached the perfect spiritual foundation. At this moment, they sensed that although Li Xuanfeng's cultivation had just broken through to the initial Lingdan stage, his aura was stronger than that of the middle Lingdan stage. They were shocked and did not dare to test Li Xuanfeng's combat power at all.
Li Xuanfeng sensed the spiritual power in the elixir, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. Compared to when his spiritual foundation was fully perfected, his spiritual power increased by more than two times. This is the huge gap between the spiritual foundation realm and the spiritual elixir realm!
This gap can rarely be made up by cultivators, so there are very few cultivators who can fight against those in the Spiritual Core Realm with their Spiritual Core Realm cultivation.
Then Li Xuanfeng stood up and walked to Shen Luoyan's side. He casually grabbed the air with his right hand, and the formation dissipated and turned into a jade slip flying over. Li Xuanfeng said softly, "Senior Sister, let's go."
"Time flies so fast. You were just an ignorant young boy following me back then. I didn't expect that three years later, your cultivation has surpassed mine." After sensing the aura of the Lingdan realm from Li Xuanfeng, Shen Luoyan said with emotion, a look of reminiscence appeared in her big eyes.
Seeing Shen Luoyan acting like a little adult, Li Xuanfeng couldn't help but expose her: "It's as if you were not an ignorant little girl in the beginning."
"Then I will always be your senior sister, right?" Shen Luoyan retorted proudly.
"Yes, yes, of course you are my senior sister, and you will always be my good senior sister." Li Xuanfeng admitted it readily, with an imperceptible sincerity in his tone.
Shen Luoyan was very good to him. In Li Xuanfeng's heart , he had already determined that no matter what happened in the future, she would always be his senior sister.
"You said it, if you dare to go back on your word and ignore me in the future, I won't forgive you!" Shen Luoyan smiled and waved his little fist threateningly.
Seeing Shen Luoyan's funny look, Li Xuanfeng couldn't help but chuckle. This was a smile that had not appeared on his face for a long time.
Perhaps only she could make him, whose heart was filled with sadness, smile with ease.
The two of them quickly left this place and went to other areas to look for suitable Thunder Beasts to hunt, but at this time there were very few single Thunder Beasts appearing.
Even if one appears occasionally, it will soon be hunted down by the practitioners who are constantly searching.
During the time when Li Xuanfeng was breaking through, the situation in the second layer of the secret realm was turbulent and constantly changing. Of the original thirteen cultivators who were close to the Spirit Infant Realm, seven had broken through to the Spirit Infant Realm, three had been killed, and the remaining three were fleeing!
Fortunately, this secret realm is extremely vast. Although the person who broke through first immediately set out to look for the others, it also took a lot of time, so only three people were killed.
If this second layer is just as big as Xuanling Sect's Blood Spirit Secret Realm, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator can cross it in less than half an incense stick of time. I'm afraid that there will be only two people who can successfully break through to the Spiritual Infant Realm.
Among the seven people who broke through, four were from the other two continents. It had to be said that no matter in terms of combat power or cultivation, they were stronger than the people from the nine sects of the Spiritual Continent!
This is a kind of suppression. The stronger the continent, the stronger the forces on it, and the skills and magic will naturally be better, which is why the people of the Spiritual Continent are suppressed!
Therefore, seven people had already broken through to the Spirit Infant Realm at that time, and the three who escaped had almost nowhere to hide in the second level, let alone break through to their cultivation level with peace of mind!
Therefore, they had to rush to the western end as quickly as possible. There was the entrance to the third level. Only by passing this entrance would the three of them have hope of surviving!
The entrance to the third floor is not as simple as the entrance to the second floor. Those who enter the secret realm need to overcome a difficulty!
This difficulty has blocked the journey of countless practitioners to the secret realm!
Li Xuanfeng, who was searching for the Thunder-Swallowing Beasts with Shen Luoyan, was unaware of this. Three days later, Li Xuanfeng finally found three Thunder-Swallowing Beasts that appeared together. Their cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Spiritual Pill Realm. He immediately hunted them down with joy.
When Li Xuanfeng was fighting against the three thunder-swallowing beasts, two Lingdan realm cultivators who were searching for the thunder-swallowing beasts also appeared here.
The two men originally wanted to wait for Li Xuanfeng and the Thunder-Swallowing Beast to be defeated and then reap the benefits, but they didn't expect that Li Xuanfeng ignored them at all, as if he didn't care about their presence at all.
To kill the three thunder-swallowing beasts, Li Xuanfeng only used three moves: a thunder strike, a punch, and a magic spell!
Moreover, Li Xuanfeng's speed was so fast that when the two saw the three thunder-devouring beasts attacking at the same time, they were unable to hurt him at all!
It was this scene that completely frightened the two men who wanted to be the ones to take advantage of the situation, and they immediately ran away desperately without even looking back!
Are you kidding? That is a terrifying existence that can kill three Lingdan early stage Thunder-Swallowing Beasts in an instant. If they continue to stay, they will probably meet the souls of these three Thunder-Swallowing Beasts soon!
It was already a burst of luck to encounter three Thunder-Swallowing Beasts appearing together, because given the current situation in the sea of thunder, having only three Thunder-Swallowing Beasts together was already considered lonely.
In the second layer of the sea of thunder at this time, the thunder-swallowing beasts that originally acted individually can now be called social spirit beasts. Most of them are dozens or even hundreds of thunder-swallowing beasts gathered together, causing the cultivators in the secret realm to change color at the mere mention of them and not dare to approach at all!
What’s even more terrifying is that behind these groups of thunder-devouring beasts, there is a faint aura of the Spirit Infant Realm emanating!
That is the Thunder Devouring Beast in the Spirit Infant Realm!
It is precisely because of this that even the few people who have broken through to the Spirit Infant Realm at this time do not dare to provoke the group of Thunder-Swallowing Beasts!
Thousands of cultivators on the second floor had no choice but to give up hunting the Thunder Beast. Although spiritual crystals were extremely tempting for a breakthrough in cultivation, they had to be alive to absorb them.
Most people began to go around the edge of the sea of thunder and head towards the western end, preparing to reach the entrance to the third level.
At this time, Li Xuanfeng brought Shen Luoyan back to the top of the mountain where they entered the second level. This was the gathering place set by the eldest senior brother. It is now extremely difficult to hunt the Thunder Beast, and I believe they will return here soon.
Li Xuanfeng took out a long sword and spent a while digging out a simple cave on the mountainside. He handed the three spirit crystals taken from the Thunder Devouring Beast to Shen Luoyan and said softly, "Sister, you can rest assured to break through your cultivation here. This time, it's my turn to protect you!"
He had long sensed that Shen Luoyan's cultivation was close to the Lingdan realm. With these three spirit crystals for absorption, a breakthrough was only a matter of time.
Shen Luoyan is different from him. To break through, he not only needs a huge amount of spiritual power, but also has the Five Elements Devouring Method that can devour at an extremely fast speed, so it is more appropriate to choose the top of the mountain.
The spiritual power required by Shen Luoyan to break through was much less than his, and the absorption speed was also much slower, so it was enough in the cave.
Moreover, it is more hidden in the cave and not easily discovered by others.
Because his own formation jade slip was shattered, he could only use the jade slip of the woman from the Hehuan Sect, but it did not have the hidden formation of the Lingdan Realm. Shen Luoyan's formation jade slip was also shattered when she was protecting Li Xuanfeng, so he could only make do with this at this time.
"Xuanfeng, thank you!" Seeing Li Xuanfeng's serious look, Shen Luoyan did not need to refuse and took the spirit crystal with anticipation in her big eyes.
She felt extremely relieved that Li Xuanfeng was protecting her. She believed in Li Xuanfeng's fighting ability, and she believed even more that Li Xuanfeng would do his best to protect her at all costs.
Afterwards, Shen Luoyan sat cross-legged in the cave without any worries and began to absorb the spiritual power from the spirit crystal.
Li Xuanfeng shook his head helplessly. Do you trust me so much? He entered the cultivation state without even setting up a protective formation.
Shen Luoyan believed that Li Xuanfeng would prepare everything, so she was lazy and just focused on absorbing spiritual power to break through her cultivation, leaving everything else to Li Xuanfeng.
However, Li Xuanfeng just sighed helplessly in his heart, and immediately took out the formation jade slip and set up the formation. Then he stood in the formation, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, and his spiritual awareness was released without reservation.
At this time, on the second floor, because there were too many people looking for the Thunder-Swallowing Beast, several people soon passed by where Li Xuanfeng and the other person were. However, they did not descend and send out their spiritual awareness to sense below, so they did not discover the cave where Li Xuanfeng and the other person were.
However, luck doesn't last forever. When a team of five people flew over the sky, they landed and circled around, and instantly felt the spiritual energy in the cave!
A hint of complexity flashed across Li Xuanfeng's eyes, but he instantly regained his composure, because one of the five-member team was someone he knew.
After sensing the spiritual energy, the five people immediately used their spiritual awareness to probe into the cave. They instantly sensed Shen Luoyan who was making a breakthrough in the cave, and Li Xuanfeng who was guarding the cave entrance.
A man standing at the back walked to the front, clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Brother Lin, how are you?"
This person was none other than Long Jiang from the Corpse Demon Cult . At this moment, there was a hint of complexity and confusion in his eyes, because the current Li Xuanfeng's temperament was completely different from when he was in the Demonic Continent.
At that time, Li Xuanfeng was wearing a black robe and a hat on his head, which made him look rather gloomy. But now, he was wearing a blue robe, with a clean and natural temperament, as if he had become a different person.
If it weren't for his familiarity with Li Xuanfeng's appearance in the Demon City, Long Jiang would never have believed that this was the same person!
Since the war between the righteous and the evil, Long Jiang has not seen Li Xuanfeng again and thought he had died in the war.
"Friend Long, long time no see." Li Xuanfeng's expression did not change at all, he just greeted him calmly.
"Brother Lin is indeed extraordinary. I didn't expect that his cultivation has reached the Lingdan realm like mine. I guess he has gained a lot of fortune in this secret realm." Long Jiang exclaimed in surprise after sensing Li Xuanfeng's cultivation.
When he first went to the Corpse Demon Sect from the Demon City, Li Xuanfeng had just broken through to the late Spirit Foundation stage. Unexpectedly, in just one year, he would enter the Spirit Pill Realm like him.
"Senior Brother Bai Yan, this is Lin Tietou, a disciple of our Corpse Demon Sect. He got lost in the war. I hope you can take good care of him." Long Jiang then turned around and reported to a young man in white.
Long Jiang knew that Li Xuanfeng had helped him a lot in the Demon City, and he reported this now in the hope that Bai Yan would show some leniency.
"Since you are my junior fellow disciple, you can just offer me a Spiritual Pill Realm Spirit Crystal." Bai Yan said proudly after hearing this. His words sounded as if it was a matter of course, as if he was extremely generous.
"Brother Lin, why don't you thank Senior Brother Bai Yan quickly?" Long Jiang reminded Li Xuanfeng immediately when he saw that Li Xuanfeng had not made any move yet.
Bai Yan was the leader among the five people, and his cultivation had reached the late stage of Lingdan. It was already a leniency for him to only take one spirit crystal at this time.
Long Jiang was even a little proud. It seemed that Senior Brother Bai Yan still gave him some face.
"But I didn't agree." But Li Xuanfeng's answer made Long Jiang's eyes widen instantly in disbelief!
In his opinion, Senior Brother Bai Yan was rarely generous, but Li Xuanfeng actually dared to disagree. Wasn't that courting death?
You know, for the people of the Corpse Demon Cult, robbing resources is commonplace even within the sect. Now that they have entered the secret realm, they are even more unscrupulous. People with low cultivation can only rely on the strong to avoid having their resources robbed.
Of course, although dependence can avoid most plundering, it also requires handing over resources.
"If you don't accept my toast, then I will take all your resources!"
"You three, go and break the formation and grab those two spirit crystals. As for these two, kill them all!" Bai Yan gave the order directly to the other three people except Long Jiang.
