Chapter 651: Five Elements Secret Realm
Walking leisurely, Xiao Mian finally arrived at the center safely.
There was nothing here except a tall five-colored boulder.
With some doubt, Xiao Mian walked forward and saw that the five-colored boulder was in the shape of a five-sided column, about ten feet high and about a foot in diameter, straight throughout, with five distinct colors.
This turned out to be an extremely rare spiritual object with all five elements!
Thinking back to the past, the scholar was determined to forge a defensive magic weapon with all five elements for Wu Lingzi, but he kept delaying because he couldn't find the right spiritual material. Finally, until Wu Lingzi became the ancestor of the Nascent Soul, the scholar barely refined the Five Spirit Wall.
This shows how rare it is to have a spiritual material with all five elements!
Besides, the Five Spirit Wall is just a top-level defensive magic weapon. From this, it can be inferred that the spiritual material used to refine the Five Spirit Wall was at most level six; on the other hand, although Xiao Mian couldn't determine the grade of the five-colored boulder in front of him, he knew that this thing must be extraordinary.
After being nurtured for thousands of years in the center of such a rich spiritual energy of the five elements, even a piece of stubborn stone can be stained with a trace of immortal energy, right?
With a flip of his hand, the Five Spirit Wall appeared in Xiao Mian's palm.
Ever since Xiao Mian successfully formed the elixir, he rarely used the Five Spirit Wall, a top-level magic weapon, when fighting against the enemy, but when practicing normally, Xiao Mian did not forget the Five Spirit Wall.
Especially when refining the Five Spirit Golden Bell Cover, the Five Spirit Wall played a great role.
Now, looking at the Five Spirit Wall again, Xiao Mian's heart moved.
Looking at the shape of the Five Spirit Wall, isn't it exactly the same as the five-colored giant stone in front of him?
When the scholar gave the Five Spirit Wall to him that day, he seemed to have mentioned that the spiritual materials for refining the Five Spirit Wall were prepared by Wu Lingzi himself. Could it be...
Could it be that the spiritual materials for the Five Spirit Wall were cut from this five-colored giant stone?
After comparing them, Xiao Mian found that except for the fact that the Five Spirit Wall was a circle smaller than the Five-Colored Stone, the internal texture structure was surprisingly consistent!
Could it be that when the master cut off the Five Spirit Wall, this Five-Colored Stone was only the same size as the Five Spirit Wall?
After more than three hundred years, the Five-Colored Stone has grown again?
It grew too fast!
Even if, as Hua Mancheng said, the speed of time inside the Zulong Residence was different from that outside after it was closed, the fastest was only three times that of the outside world.
The last time Zulong Residence was opened was three hundred and sixty years ago. According to the three times the speed, it has only been more than a thousand years!
Xiao Mian doesn't believe that a stone can grow so big after more than a thousand years!
Unless - this stone has become a spirit!
In other words, this Five-Colored Stone may have already given birth to a trace of spirituality. Driven by this trace of spirituality, the rich five-element spiritual energy around it is constantly poured into the Five-Colored Stone, which eventually makes the Five-Colored Stone grow rapidly in an almost weird way.
If this is true, this five-colored giant stone can be called a stone monster!
Thinking about this, Xiao Mian stretched out his right hand and touched the five-colored giant stone.
Suddenly, a stream of extremely pure five-element spiritual energy was released, rushing into his arm along Xiao Mian's palm, passing through the meridians, and directly reaching the dantian.
Xiao Mian was shocked, and then he was surprised and happy: he was surprised that this stream of five-element spiritual energy was extremely huge, and he was happy that this stream of five-element spiritual energy entered his body and allowed Xiao Mian to further improve his cultivation.
Increasing the speed of cultivation is not the most important thing. Xiao Mian's normal cultivation speed can almost be said to be three to five times that of ordinary top cultivators, but it is precisely because of the excessively fast speed of cultivation that Xiao Mian will fall into an inexplicable bottleneck from time to time. Just like before entering Zulongju, Xiao Mian found that his cultivation could no longer make any progress.
Now, under the impact of the five-element spiritual energy, Xiao Mian's cultivation has made further progress.
This means that if Xiao Mian can practice here, he will definitely break the bottleneck!
With Xiao Mian's current mid-level Jindan cultivation, he can already fight against elite cultivators at the top level of Jindan. If Xiao Mian can improve his cultivation to the high level of Jindan, even if he meets Wang Yong again, Xiao Mian has the confidence to kill him head-on with his own strength.
By then, except for the lack of spiritual consciousness, wouldn't Xiao Mian be invincible below the Nascent Soul?
When Xiao Mian thought of this, his heart surged.
But after thinking about it, Xiao Mian suppressed the urge to practice immediately.
Xiao Mian came here not to practice, but for the piece of fire attribute superb spiritual material that even Wang Jian, a high-level Nascent Soul cultivator, couldn't forget.
However, the records in Wang Jian's jade slips were quite vague. After a little thought, Xiao Mian guessed that even Wang Jian himself might not have penetrated deep into the heart of this central area.
Wang Jian, Wang Jian!
Your ability to talk nonsense is no worse than mine!
With such a bitter smile, Xiao Mian's expression moved.
After removing the palm that had been touching the five-colored giant stone, Xiao Mian saw that there were some tiny characters engraved on the place covered by the palm before.
Xiao Mian was full of joy when he looked through the spiritual eyes.
This handwriting - Xiao Mian knew it!
When Dan Qiusheng gave Xiao Mian the "Five Elements Sword Canon" that day, he mentioned that there were handwritten annotations by his master Wu Lingzi in the "Five Elements Sword Canon". Therefore, Xiao Mian was not unfamiliar with Wu Lingzi's handwriting. Isn't the handwriting on the five-colored giant stone the handwriting of Wu Lingzi?
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Xiao Mian read it word by word.
After a long time, Xiao Mian sighed and knew the truth of that day...
It turned out that Wu Lingzi traveled to Qin County and met Wang Jian. After learning that Wu Lingzi had the spiritual root qualifications of all five elements, Wang Jian deliberately made friends with him. At that time, Zulongju was about to open, and Wang Jian accompanied Wu Lingzi day and night, and they were inseparable.
Zulong was in the middle, and naturally, Wang Jian and Wu Lingzi followed him.
Under Wang Jian's intentional or unintentional guidance, the two came to the secret realm of the five elements.
Wu Lingzi was naturally overjoyed when he saw that there was such a rich place of five elements in Zulongju. He thought that Wang Jian really cared about him and came here specially.
According to Wang Jian, there was a piece of fire attribute top-grade spiritual material hidden here, which was very compatible with his own fire attribute spiritual root, but he had only one fire attribute spiritual root and could not enter it, so he had to ask Wu Lingzi to help him, and he would definitely reward him later.
Under Wang Jian's deception, Wu Lingzi entered it.
In the end, he was trapped in the five elements inversion array and could not get out.
He was trapped for more than a month. Wang Jian, who was guarding the outside world, always thought that Wu Lingzi had died long ago. In addition, he had a new task at that time, so he had to leave here.
But he didn't expect that Wu Lingzi seemed to be honest and dull, but in fact he was a late bloomer.
After being trapped in the formation for more than a month, Wu Lingzi actually understood the operating principle of the Five Elements Reversal Formation. Almost with every step, Wu Lingzi saw the five-colored giant stone.
This five-colored giant stone is the center of the Five Elements Reversal Formation!
After that, Wu Lingzi simply sat in meditation on the five-colored giant stone.
Surviving a great disaster, he broke through the bottleneck and entered the top level of Jindan cultivation in one fell swoop, thus greatly increasing his strength and leaving this dangerous place safely.
Before leaving, Wu Lingzi intercepted a piece of the five-colored spirit stone.
This piece of the five-colored spirit stone was later refined into the Five Spirit Wall by the hands of the scholar and passed to Xiao Mian; now, Xiao Mian held the Five Spirit Wall and found the five-colored giant stone.
As for whether Wu Lingzi went to find Wang Jian's bad luck after leaving, there was no description on the five-colored giant stone. After all, those were later events. But what Xiao Mian cares about is that there is a passage engraved in a larger font on the five-colored giant stone: The five-colored giant stone seals the center; later cultivators can take a section; they cannot take all of it, otherwise the dragon will come out!
Seal the center?
Could it be that this five-colored giant stone is the center that seals the demon dragon in the center of the ancestor dragon? Wu Lingzi's words obviously mean that later comers can cut the five-colored giant stone at will, but they cannot kill it all, otherwise the seal will be broken and the demon dragon will come out!
According to Wu Lingzi, there is no so-called fire attribute top-grade spiritual material!
I don't know if Wang Jian made a mistake or he deliberately made it up... But isn't this spiritual stone with all five elements more precious than a single fire attribute top-grade spiritual material?
You must know that Xiao Mian's spiritual root is all five elements?
Xiao Mian has found the top-grade fire attribute spiritual material from the secret collection of the Nine-Fingered Thief. The reason why he came here is just to find out the truth.
But this top-grade spiritual material with all five elements is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Of course, Xiao Mian was not in a hurry to intercept the five-color spiritual stone.
Since Wu Lingzi was able to walk out of the five-element reversal formation that day, how could Xiao Mian not be able to walk out after receiving Leng Ningyu's teaching?
In this case, why rush?
Taking out the Beidou Si Nan Pan, Xiao Mian contacted Gui Hai.
"Brother! I want to retreat for a while!"
"Retreat? Now the whole Zulongju is filled with killing sounds, and you still want to retreat? Even if you want to retreat, there is no need to rush now!"
"Brother! This opportunity is rare. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again! Besides... since someone is plotting against me, I will hide in the dark. I want to see who is plotting against me! I want to see what his purpose is!" As he said this, a cold light flashed in Xiao Mian's eyes. Gui Hai was silent for a moment and asked kindly: "Okay! Wait and see what happens, and don't move like a mountain. Where are you retreating? Brother will come right over!"
Gui Hai's intention was naturally to come to protect Xiao Mian.
"Don't bother! This is a natural barrier. Apart from me, even if the three monks and one demon have gathered their spiritual consciousness, they probably can't get in!"
"You kid! Anyway, be careful!"
"Yeah! Big brother too!"
After that, Xiao Mian cut off contact with Gui Hai. As for Liu Suyi or Wang Li, Xiao Mian never thought of communicating with them...
This five-element spiritual energy area, which Wang Jian and others thought was a dangerous place, was a rare place for cultivation in the eyes of Xiao Mian and Wu Lingzi.
First, the five-element spiritual energy is abundant. Even the best-quality spiritual gathering array engraved in the highest-standard cultivation inn of the Ji family probably can't gather so much spiritual energy.
Second, it is impossible for outsiders to enter. Although Xiao Mian doesn't know whether a quasi-Nascent Soul cultivator with spiritual consciousness can enter safely, it is definitely impossible for an ordinary Jindan cultivator to enter.
If not, why did Wang Jian ask Wu Lingzi for help back then?
If not, why didn't Wang Jian let Wang Yong come today?
Thinking of this, Xiao Mian casually released the black cloth - even if the three monks and one demon or Yu Wushuang could really enter this five-element secret realm under the protection of their spiritual consciousness, with the black cloth controlling the five-element reversal array, Xiao Mian, who was in seclusion, would definitely feel it at the first time.
With everything ready, Xiao Mian jumped onto the five-colored boulder that was about ten feet high.
Concentrating his mind and calming his breath, he sat cross-legged in meditation.
