Chapter 341 Gathering Golden Elixir (1/2)
A hint of hesitation flashed across Lin Mu's face.
Should he practice?
If he practices, whether he succeeds or not, his cultivation will plummet, which is inevitable. Even according to Yin Xin, with his current physique, if he only practices the first level of "Quenching Meridians", his cultivation may decline to the early stage of foundation building!
Cultivation is the foundation of a cultivator. If his cultivation declines, his strength will certainly be greatly reduced.
He has gone through untold hardships to cultivate to his current level. Now it is really difficult for him to make a decision rashly.
"Quenching Meridians" is extremely demanding to practice. Within a month, if you cultivate the first level and shape your body, your cultivation will decline. If you can't cultivate it, not only will your cultivation be lost in vain, but your meridians will also shrink! In the future, let alone displaying sword skills, it is hard to say whether you can form a golden elixir.
Such disadvantages are really unbearable for ordinary people.
Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Of course, if you succeed in cultivation, there are also many benefits.
His meridians are now broken and the pain is unbearable. Even the Ice Fairy is only 60% sure that he can be cured, but practicing the "Quenching Meridians Art" is 100% sure!
Not only that. If he can practice the first level and shape his body, it will be much easier to perform sword skills in the future, and he can fight against Jindan stage cultivators!
The hesitation on his face gradually dissipated. Lin Mu thought for a while and finally made a decision.
"I will practice." Lin Mu looked at Yin Xin and said firmly.
Yin Xin seemed to have known this for a long time. There was no change on his face. He smiled lightly and said: "Different choices will have different developments and influences. Since you have chosen this path, you will bear the benefits or losses in the future alone. All we can do is to assist slightly from the side. Everything depends on you."
Lin Mu said solemnly: "Disciple understands."
He made such a decision not because he was impulsive, but after careful consideration.
If it were in the past, the decline in cultivation would be like a bolt from the blue for him, and he would never be able to bear it. But now, he has seen it clearly.
Cultivation, especially the cultivation before the golden elixir stage, can all be accumulated by relying on resources!
Now, what he lacks the least is resources.
Yinxin occupies three of the ten peaks in the spiritual mine!
In the future, resources will be extremely abundant. Not to mention restoring his cultivation to the peak of the foundation-building stage, even if it directly helps him condense the golden elixir, there will be no pressure.
Without any worries, what else does he have to worry about?
His only hesitation is whether he can practice the first level of "Quenching Veins Jue" in one month?
This is what he cares about.
But after thinking about it, since Yinxin suggested him to practice, he would definitely not harm him, and this hesitation also dissipated immediately.
"In fact, it is very suitable for you to practice the "Quenching Meridians Art." Yin Xin said: "Your meridians are now broken and your spiritual power is disordered. It is very difficult to regulate. Even if Elder Han Bing helps you heal, it is hard to say what will happen in the future. But if you practice the "Quenching Meridians Art", these problems will be solved. The "Quenching Meridians Art" relies on absorbing the spiritual power in your body to continuously advance, which can just solve the problem of your spiritual power disorder. Regardless of whether your spiritual power is disordered or not, it will be absorbed by your meridians and used for shaping. Perhaps, you can turn a disaster into a blessing." Lin Mu said with pain: "The meridians can be healed, brother "You will be satisfied if you can perform sword skills freely. It will be an extra joy."
"I feel relieved if you can think so." Yinxin smiled slightly and said, "Strength is obtained through one's own efforts. If you want to get it without effort, you will get nothing in the end. The "Quenching Veins Art" is indeed powerful, but if you want to truly practice it, you have to pay much more than ordinary people. Your character and perseverance are far better than ordinary people. If you practice hard, you will definitely be able to practice the "Quenching Veins Art" to the first level and the shaping realm within a month."
Pain came in waves, Lin Mu did not make a sound, gritted his teeth and endured it, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"Disciple will definitely work hard and live up to the expectations of the elders." Lin Mu said in a trembling voice.
Yinxin nodded: "In that case, I will teach you the "Quenching Meridians Technique"."
He patted the storage bag, reached out and took out a purple jade slip, handed it to Lin Mu, and said: "The "Quenching Meridians Technique" is recorded in detail. You only need to practice according to it and you will be able to practice it. Some taboos are also explained in detail in the jade slip, so don't be careless."
Lin Mu took the purple jade slip, forced a smile, and agreed: "Disciple knows."
Yinxin said: "Now that your injuries have not healed, you don't need to worry about the competition. Don't worry, when your injuries are healed and your cultivation is restored, I will do my best to help you impact the golden elixir. However, If possible, I hope you still participate and take first place. "
"I made a bet with Wushuang Zhenren that if you take first place, he will agree to two of your requests. If you can't take first place, I will agree to his two requests. "Yin Xin said: "With our strength, resources are not a big problem. I am worried that he will make some tricky requests, which is extremely troublesome. If you can recover, it is best to participate in the competition and take first place. Wushuang Zhenren has a high level of cultivation and has accumulated a lot of resources. If you take first place, there will be many benefits, which will definitely exceed your imagination. "
Wushuang Zhenren's two requests!
Lin Mu heard this and forgot the pain.
Wushuang Jianmen is the largest sect in Tianxiao Realm. The resources, skills, elixirs and the like in the sect are all second to none in Tianxiao Realm. If he can really make two requests to Wushuang Zhenren, the benefits he can get are really immeasurable!
"Disciple understands." Lin Mu looked at Yin Xin and said, "But I wonder if I can still participate in the competition after I recover from my injury?"
"You don't need to worry about this." Yin Xin said, "I will make arrangements when the time comes. As long as you are willing to participate, you can participate!"
Yin Xin said very firmly, and Lin Mu believed it without a doubt: "Disciple will do his best."
Yin Xin smiled slightly: "Then you can practice the "Quenching Meridians" here with peace of mind and recuperate. I will always be waiting outside. If you have any problems, you can call me at any time."
After the voice fell, Yin Xin waved his hand, and the stone door in the quiet room opened automatically. Then, he and Fairy Hanbing walked out of the quiet room.
Outside the quiet room, Luo Yan, Fen Ning, and Gu Yun saw Yin Xin and Fairy Hanbing coming out and hurried to greet them.
"How is it?" Luo Yan asked first.
Yinxin smiled faintly and said, "It's okay. You only need to rest for a month and you will recover. But during this period, no one can disturb you, otherwise the injury will relapse."
Luo Yan's worry disappeared, and he looked at the ice fairy with a face as frosty as ice, and smiled, "I feel relieved."
Guoyun and Fen Ning also smiled, overjoyed.
Guoyun said, "Let Brother Lin rest here."
As they talked, they walked out of the cave.
When they reached the outside of the cave, Yinxin pinched his hands and set up the ban himself.
The white mist rolled, and Yinxin turned to Guoyun and said, "Lin Mu can rest here alone, you don't need to worry. For you, it is important to deal with the big analogy with all your strength. I don't know how the competition for the Wulingfeng Spirit Mine is going, why don't we go together."
Guoyun smiled and said, "The juniors are happy to do it."
Luo Yan and Fen Ning also flew up and made a gesture to leave.
Yinxin turned around and said to Luo Yan: "I can be with Wuling Peak. Why don't you and Sister Hanbing wait here for Lin Mu to come out of retreat to prevent accidents."
A flash of sword light, Luo Yan suddenly stopped and nodded: "Okay."
Thinking of Han Feng's tragic death, Luo Yan couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
Fairy Baihua was so ethereal, but she was able to kill Han Feng secretly. She was just afraid of Han Feng's qualifications and worried that there would be trouble in the future.
Lin Mu's current strength is far superior to that of a cultivator in the Lingji period. It is hard to guarantee that someone will not be jealous and wait for an opportunity to attack.
Luo Yan landed and waited in front of the cave with Fairy Hanbing.
Yinxin, Guyun, Fen Ning and others flew to Wuling Peak with a flash of light.
Wuling Peak was crowded with people, sword light flashed, spiritual energy surged, blood was everywhere, and there was a murderous atmosphere.
Landing in front of the Wushuang Hall, Gu Yun looked at the ten platforms and was shocked.
The two platforms occupied by Wushuang Sword Sect were empty, and the three platforms occupied by Yinxin were also empty.
The Yuling Sect occupied the third platform, and Ren Liang stood on it, closing his eyes to rest.
The six platforms were all peaceful.
The remaining four platforms were all fiercely fought, including the seventh platform occupied by Qianyu Sword Sect!
Qianyu Sword Sect, with four Jindan-stage cultivators in the sect, still could not stop other small sects from coming to challenge.
But Shi Weihan was there, and the seventh platform was not lost. Under the platform, there were the bodies of two Jindan-stage cultivators standing upright, their Jindans were dug out, and several Jindan-stage cultivators were seriously injured and groaning under the platform.
What is incredible is that this seventh platform is the place with the least casualties!
The eighth, ninth, and tenth platforms were all extremely tragic. On the platforms, blood flowed like a river, and broken arms and limbs were scattered all over the ground.
Gu Yun took a quick look and found that there were no less than thirty casualties!
Thirty Jindan stage cultivators!
This fight for the spiritual mine was too tragic!
But the situation is still unclear until now.
The three platforms at the bottom of the ranking have not been decided.
Tianjianmen, Duanjianmen and other major sects were all knocked off the platforms at some point. Fortunately, some people were afraid of the strength of the ten major sects and did not kill them. The cultivators of several major sects were only injured, and very few people died.
"The competition is so fierce!" Gu Yun turned to look at Wushuang Zhenren and asked, "Is it worth it?"
Wushuang Zhenren looked calm: "Don't ask if it's worth it. These small sect leaders are determined to expand the strength of their sects. They are eager for resources, which is beyond the imagination of people like you who have never worried about resources. They do this, firstly to expand the strength of their sects, and secondly, they hope that after the sect becomes stronger, they can also benefit from it, so as to strive to reach the Nascent Soul stage."
"It is not so easy to reach the Nascent Soul stage." Gu Yun said, "These people are just delusional, how can they succeed."
"Who can say that small sects will definitely not have Nascent Soul cultivators?" Wushuang Zhenren sighed: "The further you go in cultivation, the more you rely on comprehension. Some people are very lucky and it is very likely that they can break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul stage!"
"The probability is too slim!" Gu Yun muttered in a low voice.
"For everyone, hope is extremely slim. In the entire Tianxiao Realm, I am the only one who has formed a Nascent Soul." Wushuang Zhenren glared at Gu Yun and said, "Are they giving up?" Gu Yun was stunned and dared not speak.
Wushuang Zhenren snorted coldly: "Whether you can succeed or not, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you must work a hundred times or even a thousand times harder to fight and compete! Perhaps, it is because of this competition that someone can successfully condense the Nascent Soul. It is unknown. Everything came too easily to you, so you now disdain everything. If one day I fall, how will you deal with it? Do you have to wait until then to know how to fight?"
Guo Yun shrank back and was speechless.
Before, Wushuang Zhenren rarely reprimanded him like this, but since Lin Mu performed so well, he felt that everything seemed to have changed.
It seemed that his grandfather was not satisfied with every word he said.
He simply kept silent.
Wushuang Zhenren said to himself: "These Jindan-stage cultivators are fighting so hard, but they are not crazy. They have lived for hundreds of years. Don't they see things more clearly than you? Have you noticed that most of these people are about to run out of lifespan. What they are doing is nothing more than a last struggle before death. They want to take a gamble. Once they can occupy a peak, they can obtain a large amount of resources and exchange them for what they need. There is really hope that they can successfully condense the Nascent Soul!"
Yinxin stood aside with a calm face and said nothing.
While Wushuang Zhenren was teaching Gu Yun a lesson, the fight on the field became more and more fierce.
The sword light was bright and flickering, and the sword skills kept erupting, shaking the world.
From time to time, some people fell off the platform, either injured or dead, and some people won, stood on the platform, complacent, and were then knocked off the platform by the next wave of opponents.
Heavy casualties!
Yinxin and Wushuang Zhenren looked at each other, and a hint of reluctance flashed in their eyes, but they didn't say anything, nor did they make a move to stop it. The two stood still and watched the situation develop.
"After the competition for the spiritual mine is over, it's time for the big competition." Yinxin said: "Have you thought about how to compete?"
Wushuang Zhenren looked at the competition on the high platform quietly, his expression unchanged and said: "What do you think?"
Yinxin said calmly: "This big competition will have tens of thousands of people, and it will be an extremely long competition. For those who are really powerful, it is too cumbersome. It is also possible that before the final battle, there will be a master who will meet by chance, and one person will be eliminated regretfully. In my opinion, it is better for the ten major sects to each recommend a strong disciple as a seed player to directly enter the top 100! In addition, the ten major sects can also jointly recommend other strong disciples. The number of fierce cultivators shall not exceed ten, and these ten are also among the top 100! As for the rest of the cultivators, they have never made their mark, so they need to fight and struggle among the vast number of cultivators to compete for the remaining top 100 places! "
Master Wushuang did not express his opinion immediately, and smiled: "You must be planning for Lin Mu! But your idea is a bit unrealistic. Although the competition is long, it will only take more than a month to decide the final top 100. Lin Mu's meridians are broken, can he recover in a month? "
Yinxin smiled calmly: "Don't worry about it, just tell me if it's okay!"
His tone was firm, not a question at all, as if he was sure that Master Wushuang would agree.
Wushuang Zhenren smiled and said, "It seems that I am not the only one who is yearning for those two requests. Some people are also like this. In this case, I will promise you that you will lose with a clear conscience. However, you must accept the loss. Even if Lin Mu wins the second place, you must agree to my two requests! Don't make excuses, saying that Lin Mu is injured and cannot exert his full strength."
Yinxin said lightly, "Of course."
Wushuang Zhenren smiled and said, "I will be relieved. Tomorrow, the competition will officially begin! Today, only the spiritual mine competition will be held."
The two of them looked up at the high platform.
The sword energy was crisscrossed, the light was flashing, and the sword skills were flying. The struggle had reached the most intense moment!
Bang! Bang!
Two Jindan-stage cultivators flew down from the eighth and tenth high platforms.
The crowd exclaimed, and the two Jindan-stage cultivators were all killed!
Gu Hai, the elder of Wanjian Sect, stood on the eighth high platform, looking at the audience with murderous intent.
He had been patient for too long and had only taken action now, in order to take down this high platform with all his strength.
If he failed again this time, the Wanjian Sect could only wait for its fall!
He was extremely ruthless, and his cultivation was at the late Jindan stage, far superior to the others. He Liang had not yet taken action, and after he killed three Jindan cultivators in a row, no one dared to come up to the stage.
Gu Hai and He Liang looked at each other and could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The head of the Wanjian Sect, Cai Heng, had already woken up and lay motionless under the stage, but he did not go to heal his wounds, but stared at the stage, hoping that Gu Hai and He Liang would take down this eighth high platform. Seeing his dream come true, he could no longer suppress his injuries and fainted again.
After a bloody struggle, the ninth and tenth high platforms also had their owners, and were taken by the combined forces of two small sects.
Under the high platform, several true disciples of the Wushuang Sword Sect were busy.
A moment later, a disciple at the peak of the Spiritual Silence Stage flew to the side of Wushuang Zhenren and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the Sect Master, this battle was extremely fierce, with a total of 28 Jindan Stage cultivators perished! Except for a few from the ten major sects, the rest of these 28 Jindan were collected by our Wushuang Sword Sect, a total of 23 Jindans!"
Twenty-three Jindans!
Yinxin, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but light up!
