Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 1025 A World Pocket Strange
Back in the past, Tang Xiu's achievements in the array were close to the peak. He could even completely cover certain stars in the Eternal World with arrays with formidable strength. His current spiritual feeling was only a tenth of his glory days, but breaking the array was only a breeze for him.
"Let's go inside. ”
Tang Xiu floated up and his finger made a forward slashing motion. The air rippled like a net that split open and then shattered in the blink of an eye. The newly opened fine steel door was easily split like tofu before it fell to the ground.
Eyes full of excitement, Chen Zhizhong's admiration for Tang Xiu reached its peak. Back when he and his people first came to this place, they had completely exhausted all the means they could think of and spent a huge effort to enter just for nothing. But his master achieved it so easily, it was far beyond his imagination.
“Any. There was no spiritual qi here, ”mumam Tang 28 with an expression of disbelief behind Tang Xiu after they walked along the cave for tens of meters.
It should be noted that spiritual qi can be found everywhere on Earth, although its concentration is already thin enough in some places that it can be ignored. But the concentration of spiritual qi in this place was even thinner, completely negligible and could not be felt the deeper they walked.
Tang Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "Tang 28, you waited outside the cave with the others and did not enter without my order. Keep guard outside and deter anyone who comes here. ”
"understandable. ”
Team Tang 28 stopped their steps and turned outside the cave.
After which, Tang Xiu brought Chen Zhizhong deeper into the cave for over a dozen meters before he faintly heard roaring sounds from within. The voice was not like the roar of a savage beast and was more like the voice of a human roaring furiously. After going deeper for a hundred meters, a bright beam greeted them.
"God! How is this possible?"
Chen Zhizhong suddenly exclaimed as she looked at the scene ahead; she could not believe her eyes. Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that such a different world existed in the belly of the massif. Although there was no sun and moon, the pocket world had blue skies, white clouds, and surging mountains. Countless birds and beasts could be seen everywhere along with towering ancient trees and various colorful flowers. It just looks like a fairy tale.
"Don't fuss about anything. This is just a pocket world built in an array, ” Tang Xiu said indifferently. “But I have to admit that the array here is more interesting than the one at the entrance. ”
For Chen Zhizhong, who knew nothing about arrays, she naturally could not see the negligence of this place. He took out a dagger and warily glanced around and any slightest disturbance would alert him.
“This place is huge. So, what are we gonna do here, sir? Should we search and hunt for treasure? "
“This small world was built by an array, and it was too big for it. It was a pity that the oxygen here was too thin and spiritual qi was negligible. With thin spiritual qi, even Gold Core Stage experts cannot absorb the energy of the world here, ” Tang Xiu said, looking a little regretful. “I don't think we can find any valuable plants here even though there are so many flowers and trees. ”
"Why, anyway?" Chen Zhizhong asked, looking puzzled. “Plants can grow here, but why can't medicinal herbs? Did they not plant too? "
"The medicinal herb is indeed a plant, but for it to be called a medicinal herb is because it needs to absorb the essence of the Earth and grow under the food of Heaven and the spiritual energy of the Earth. Only after many years of accumulation can it have a strong medicinal efficacy. Using an analogy in this regard, even if we were to plant wild ginseng here, it would not have any medicinal properties at all. Do you think it can be considered a medicinal herb? "
Chen Zhizhong immediately understood Tang Xiu's explanation. He then shook his head and forced a smile. “Ah, then it can be called that. The reason why ginseng is treated like a treasure is because of the medicinal properties it contains. It's no different than weeds without it. ”
"That's why I concluded that there might not be any medicinal herbs in this small world," Tang Xiu said. “If there is a good thing here, it is very likely to be ore. ”
“I think that's what happened here, sir. '' Chen Zhizhong argued hastily. “In addition, we found some Bloodsoul Stones outside the cave entrance, so I thought there must be something better than that ore. How about a look around? Maybe we can find some unexpected surprises here. ”
"We will naturally take a look around since we are already here," Tang Xiu replied with a smile.
The small world itself had a beautiful environment with mountains, rivers, birds, and beasts all around. However, with this lively life form in this fairytale land, he definitely had great danger and terrifying beasts around him. The roar they had just heard was a sign that even Tang Xiu had to be careful despite the negligible spiritual qi in this world.
To put it bluntly, it was energy consumption that was the most deadly problem for cultivators in this kind of environment, unless they carried large amounts of pills. Once they consumed their True Essence energy and fell into a crisis, survival would be extremely difficult for them. Fortunately, Tang Xiu had many pills in his interspatial ring. Even if the pill did not affect him much, he could support Chen Zhizhong if he needed to take it in an emergency.
Walking on the path of cultivation was indeed like sailing against the current. Those who could not move forward would only be left behind. The Primal Chaos power I have accumulated in my body is only one aspect. I still have to advance in cultivation, which requires me to absorb the energy of the stars. But just like a river flowing into an ocean, all kinds of energy could still be used. I can use spiritual qi as additional energy, although I still need a large amount of demonic-power to replenish it once in a while.
After quite some time, Tang Xiu and Chen Zhizhong had traversed into the depths of the small world, but they were still unable to figure out just how big this small world really was. Furthermore, what made them truly disappointed was that they were unable to find any treasures; although they also did not face any danger.
"We can't keep looking like this, Zhizhong. Even spending months searching for anything here, I don't think we can search this entire area of the small world by its size. As of now, I am worried that I should focus on this small world, ” Tang Xiu said as he paused with a pensive expression on his face.
For a moment, Chen Zhizhong looked hesitant, then she said, "I don't know anything about arrays, Master, so you can research slowly. I will keep looking. ”
Hearing her words, Tang Xiu took out two jade bottles from the interspatial ring and handed them to her. Nodding, he said, “Remember, the more beautiful the environment, the more deadly the danger it hides. Don't be fooled by the view of this place and always take care of yourself. Get back here if you are in danger. Also, there are 20 pills in these two jade bottles that will help you. ”
Suddenly, he seemed to have recalled something and took out the Tang Sect Token he had just perfected from the interspatial ring and handed it to Chen Zhizhong. “Eternal Party Hall is nothing but a regular restaurant now. All of his core members had now become members of the Tang Sect. I am the one who founded this Tang Sect – a sect for cultivators. So, take this Tang Sect Token as proof that you are also a disciple of the Tang Sect. ”
A shocked expression flashed across Chen Zhizhong's face. He knew what the monastery sect meant. The sect was as a whole like a big family in ancient times. For his master, Tang Xiu to establish the Tang Sect meant that he himself was also a cultivator with origin and foundation now.
After receiving the Tang Sect Token with a serious face, Chen Zhizhong saw Tang Xiu shake his head.
"Ehh? What's up, Mister? ”
"Drop your blood on the token. It will then fuse into your body and a token pattern will appear on your finger. The Tang Sect's Token was a magic tool with two functions. One is to prove your identity and the other is mainly for protection. It can protect you from a fatal blow once you face a hopeless situation. Remember, it will not be active unless you are facing a desperate situation at the most critical moment of life and death and you do not have enough time to activate it. ”
With his expression turning serious, Chen Zhizhong nodded firmly. He made a small wound on his finger with a dagger and dropped a droplet of blood on the Tang Sect Token. Suddenly, he saw a strange connection between his spiritual power and the token in his hand.
Whooshing sound!
The token suddenly disappeared and a token pattern appeared on Chen Zhizhong's thumb immediately after. It looked like a tattoo and looked identical to Tang Sect Token.
"You just need a thought to control the token," Tang Xiu continued. "Go now! Don't go too far and get lost here. As long as I fully understand the array from this small world, I can easily detect any treasure in this world by using this array. ”
Chen Zhizhong nodded and tried to release the token first, before taking it back. After repeating it a few times, he went into the distance excitedly.
Tang Xiu took a quick glance around at random before heading to the flat, a large blue stone nearby. After sitting cross-legged on it, he constantly released his perception and quickly touched the invisible array.
"Interesting. '
After understanding and having a brief understanding, Tang Xiu realized that this array was extremely abstruse. Although he could understand most of the arrays that existed, a small portion of these arrays felt very new to him. Something he had never felt or thought of before. Such discoveries piqued his interest and made him more eager to find out more. He was completely aware that the more he knew about this array, the more he felt how vast and profound it was.
In the deep valley there was a spring with white mist rising above it. A group of exotic and strange animals resembling sheep and dogs with rhino-like horns on their heads are drinking around spring.
Some of them, looking like lion-sized owls, were seen crouching on the rocks, looking around. They did not open their mouths but continued to chirp "cluck, cluck" sounds.
"Ehh? What'sthat?"
Chen Zhizhong, who had just come here, suddenly staggered. Fortunately, he responded quickly and reached out to grip the boulder a few meters away before it fell to the ground. His face was full of shock as if he was seeing a ghost in broad daylight.
