Chapter 465: The Spiritual Vein of Piaomiao Holy Palace (1/2)

Qin Mu flicked his fingers, and a ray of soul power was injected into Lin Xiaoxiao's mind.

Lin Xiaoxiao had already been tortured by the demon mark and was in agony.

At this moment, as soon as Qin Mu loosened his restraints, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly woke up from her daze.

She looked around blankly, and when she looked at Qin Mu again, her face was filled with fear and her body was trembling.

"You don't have to be afraid." Qin Mu wrote lightly: "Actually, I'm a really good person."

"What...what do you want to do?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked with a trembling voice.

Qin Mu looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, his eyes were dark, and the corners of his mouth had a strange and unpredictable arc. He walked slowly to Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao's pupils shrank suddenly, she couldn't help but took two steps back, and said tremblingly: "Please spare me, let me go, I am willing to pay any price..."

She knelt on the ground and kept begging.

Qin Mu ignored her, but stretched out his right hand, gently touched Lin Xiaoxiao's delicate face, looked at her carefully for a long time, and then said: "She was actually pretty good, but it's a pity to die like this."

When Lin Xiaoxiao heard this, she was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and her eyes instantly became moist.

She bit her lip, looked at Qin Mu with tears in her eyes, and prayed: "Please, as long as you let me go, you can do whatever you want..."

She kept sobbing, and her appearance of pear blossoms with rain was endearing, but at this moment, there was only fear and despair in her heart.

She has never been so remorseful as she is now. She should not have brought this man in, let alone provoke this devil.

She could be said to have felt the horror of the demon mark just now. It was thousands of times more painful than being cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, and she couldn't help but collapse.

Qin Mu glanced at her lightly: "Spare you?"

"Well, as long as you spare me, I am willing to work as a cow or a horse for you, and I will do anything..."

Lin Xiaoxiao kowtowed desperately, tears streaming down her face.

"Don't be like this. In fact, what you just said moved me very much."

Qin Mu gently stroked her smooth and white skin and spoke softly.

"However, I like well-behaved children. Can you be more well-behaved?"

Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly raised her head, looked at him, nodded desperately, and said: "Yes, of course I can!"

"In that case, please help me with something first." Qin Mu whispered in Lin Xiaoxiao's ear.

After listening to Qin Mu's words, the expression on Lin Xiaoxiao's face suddenly froze, her eyes widened, as if she had seen a ghost.

"What? Not willing?" Qin Mu blinked.

Lin Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it."

"Okay." Qin Mu showed a warm smile, then took out a black object that looked like a date core and handed it to Lin Xiaoxiao, saying: "Go and complete what you should do."

Lin Xiaoxiao lowered his head to take the black date core, his eyes fell on the date core, and his hands couldn't help but tremble.

This date core is very strange. There is a faint black mist lingering on the surface. It can be vaguely seen that there seems to be life surging inside, which is very magical.

But what shocked Lin Xiaoxiao the most was the aura in the jujube core. It was cold, evil, violent, murderous...all kinds of negative auras gathered in it.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know what it was, but she also understood that it was definitely not a good thing, and it was even a hundred times more dangerous than the demon mark in her body.

She hesitated and did not immediately take the black date core into her arms.

"Huh?" Qin Mu raised his eyebrows slightly and said lightly, "What? Don't you want to?"

"I, I'm just worried about failure..." Lin Xiaoxiao stammered.

"Just do as I say, don't worry about failure." Qin Mu said calmly: "Why, do you still feel unwilling to do so?"

"No, no, it's just... this thing is too precious, I'm afraid of wasting it." Lin Xiaoxiao explained quickly.

Qin Mu smiled lightly: "Don't worry, I just hope you don't disappoint me."

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded and carefully took the date core into his arms.

Then he forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, stood up, and said respectfully: "Master, please don't worry, I will do my best to help you."

"Okay, you can leave now, I wish you good luck."

Qin Mu patted her shoulder and signaled that she could leave.

Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and finally stood up.

Looking at Qin Mu, he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"By the way, my name is Qin Mu."

At this time, Qin Mu was lying on the bed and added with his eyes closed.

Lin Xiaoxiao was slightly startled, nodded, turned around and left in a hurry.

After Lin Xiaoxiao retreated, the room fell into a brief silence.

Qin Mu, who had his eyes closed on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, with a cold and cold light in his dark and deep eyes.

"Although the process is more troublesome, in this way, the Misty Holy Palace will basically fall into my hands."

Qin Mu smiled and said to himself with a playful look, "I really look forward to what the master of the Misty Holy Palace will look like when he comes back."

...........

Lin Xiaoxiao walked out of the room and walked straight to the palace at the highest point of the mountain.

That is where the elders of the sect hold discussions, and it is also where the spiritual energy of the entire Piaomiao Holy Palace is located.

Along the way, the disciples she met stopped and saluted her.

"Senior Sister Lin." Everyone called, respectfully.

Lin Xiaoxiao dealt with it perfunctorily, with hurried steps, fine beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, and an expression of panic that could not be concealed.

What she was going to do now was a matter of life and death for the Piaomiao Palace.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know what the consequences would be, but it would definitely not be a good ending for the Piaomiao Palace.

However, Lin Xiaoxiao also knew that even if she didn't do it, Ling Yao would do it.

It would be the same ending at that time........

Lin Xiaoxiao's mind was in a mess, and her thoughts were surging. She didn't dare to think too much.

The closer she got to the top of the Piaomiao Palace, the stronger the breath of the natural treasures surrounding her became, almost condensing into mist.

Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed her saliva and finally stopped.

The door of the palace was open, and there were faint sounds of conversation coming from inside.

Hearing the voices inside, Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, and finally walked in.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, you're back." A crisp and sweet female voice came.

A girl in her twenties quickly came over.

Lin Xiaoxiao forced a smile and said, "Well, I had something urgent to do, so I rushed back."

"Really?"

The girl frowned and stared at Lin Xiaoxiao: "Why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"

She asked with concern.

Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's just that the breakthrough has backfired a little."

"Really okay?" The girl was skeptical.

"It's really okay, I'll be fine after a rest." Lin Xiaoxiao smiled.

"Okay, if you need anything, just come to me, I will definitely try my best to help you." The girl said seriously.

"Thank you." Lin Xiaoxiao nodded to the girl again with gratitude.

"You're welcome." The girl waved her hand, and turned around and left without disturbing Lin Xiaoxiao.

Watching her disappear from sight, Lin Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, and her whole back was soaked with sweat.

She didn't dare to hesitate, and pushed open the door and entered the hall.

In the center of the hall, a group of elders sat or stood around a stone platform. On top of the stone platform, an old man sat cross-legged with his lips tightly pursed, as if he was practicing.

This old man was the Grand Elder of Piaomiao Holy Palace, Lin Xiaoxiao's grandfather, Lin Changfeng.

He was wearing a silver robe, looking like an immortal, and exuding a faint aura of oppression.

After Lin Xiaoxiao walked into the hall, she immediately attracted the attention of these elders and Lin Changfeng, and they all looked up.

When they saw Lin Xiaoxiao sweating profusely and looking as pale as paper, everyone changed their faces.

"Xiaoxiao, what happened?" Lin Changfeng shouted in a deep voice, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao was startled, and quickly shook her head, whispering: "I'm fine, it's just that I practiced too eagerly, which caused a little backlash."

"Oh?"

Lin Changfeng raised his eyebrows, but did not continue to pursue the matter. He gently touched Lin Xiaoxiao's hair and said gently:

"Take good care of yourself. You have a good talent. As long as you work hard, you are more likely to step into the realm of saints in the future. However, you must not practice too hastily to avoid damaging your foundation."

"Yes, Grandpa."

Lin Xiaoxiao's heart was warm, and she answered obediently. Then she looked at the other elders and Lin Changfeng, and said carefully: "Grandpa, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?" Lin Changfeng frowned as he looked at Lin Xiaoxiao's hesitant expression.

"Yes, it's about...that..." Lin Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and finally said: "Grandpa, I want to practice seriously tonight. Can you prepare a room with sufficient spiritual energy for me?"

"Since you want to practice seriously, this request will certainly be met." Lin Changfeng smiled and nodded.

Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Grandpa, I want to practice on the spiritual vein."

"Practice on the spiritual vein?"

Lin Changfeng narrowed his eyes suddenly when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Lin Xiaoxiao.

At this moment, he seemed to have seen through some of his granddaughter's secrets.

Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao's flickering eyes, Lin Changfeng's heart suddenly sank, and he secretly cried out that it was not good, and his face suddenly sank: "Xiaoxiao, tell Grandpa why you want to practice on the spiritual vein."

Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, finally gritted her teeth, and mustered up the courage to say: "I don't know why, I just think this spiritual vein is very suitable for me to practice, and I have a hunch that if I practice on the spiritual vein, I will have a huge gain!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Changfeng frowned and said nothing.

The other elders and disciples in the hall exchanged glances with each other, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

This spiritual vein is the core of Piaomiao Holy Palace. Every year, one third of the spiritual energy absorbed is sent to nourish the spiritual spring, and the rest is used to supply the disciples of each peak and courtyard.

Lin Changfeng's place of practice is set outside the spiritual vein. Unless there is a special reason, others are not allowed to approach the spiritual vein at will.

"Xiaoxiao, do you really want to practice in the spiritual vein? You have to think clearly. The spiritual energy on the spiritual vein is too abundant, which is not conducive to your practice, and may even cause you to suffer from the backlash of spiritual energy."

Another elder of Piaomiao Holy Palace couldn't help but dissuade him.

"Yes, Xiaoxiao, you should understand the importance of the spiritual vein to our Piaomiao Holy Palace. If something happens, no one can afford it."

Other elders also spoke up.

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at everyone, and suddenly took a deep breath and said: "I have thought it through. I want to practice on the spiritual vein."

"You--" An elder of Piaomiao Holy Palace was about to say something, but was stopped by Lin Changfeng. He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao and sighed slightly: "Since you insist on doing so, I will arrange someone to take you there."

Lin Changfeng doted on his granddaughter very much. He knew that even if he opposed Lin Xiaoxiao's decision, he could not change it.

Lin Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and immediately thanked him: "Thank you, Grandpa."

"Xiaoxiao, have you really decided to practice on the spiritual vein?" Lin Changfeng stared at his granddaughter.

"Yes." Lin Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly, took a deep breath and said: "Grandpa, I don't want to miss the opportunity."

Lin Changfeng pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled slightly: "Xiaoxiao, since you have decided, I support you, let's go, I will take you to the spiritual vein."

At that moment, Lin Changfeng personally called a person and asked him to accompany Lin Xiaoxiao to the spiritual vein.

Although Lin Changfeng loves his granddaughter, the spirit vein is equally important.

"This child is really nonsense. She actually went to the spirit vein to practice. This is simply unreasonable."

After Lin Xiaoxiao and the man left, an elder shook his head and sighed.

Lin Changfeng closed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

"Grand elder, in my opinion, the girl has never seen the spirit vein. She deliberately made an excuse to go out and play. Don't pay attention to her. Let's finish discussing the matter just now."

An elder next to him suggested.

"Yes, let's talk about the matter first. When the child has enough fun, he will know how powerful it is." Another elder agreed.

"Well, okay, everyone please sit down." Lin Changfeng nodded and motioned everyone to sit down.

Everyone sat around and began to talk about the matter of Piaomiao Palace accepting disciples, constantly exchanging information.

Lin Changfeng listened quietly and occasionally interrupted.

However, his divine consciousness was no longer here, but flew into the yard where Lin Xiaoxiao lived...

He wanted to see what happened to his granddaughter, and she suddenly asked to practice on the spiritual vein.

This was too abnormal, because he knew Lin Xiaoxiao best, and this girl would never ask to practice on her own initiative.

As for Lin Xiaoxiao, the person he sent was a saint, and there would be no problem.

...........

On the other side, Lin Xiaoxiao, accompanied by this elder, finally came to the spiritual vein of Piaomiao Holy Palace.

Looking at the towering mountain in front, Lin Xiaoxiao was shocked.

This mountain is the spiritual vein of Piaomiao Holy Palace.

It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the ancestor of Piaomiao Palace forcibly moved the entire mountain range into the void.

The whole mountain turned into a huge island in the void.

In order to fill this island with spiritual energy, Piaomiao Holy Palace used a lot of magic weapons and resources to build this spiritual vein as a treasure to guard it.

The spiritual energy here is much richer than that of ordinary places, and even richer than that of any spiritual vein in the entire Piaomiao Domain.

If it were another cultivator who cultivated here, it would probably take only a few years for him to be promoted to a strong man in the Dao-killing Realm.

The elder arranged by Lin Changfeng led Lin Xiaoxiao to the entrance of the spiritual vein, pointed at the entrance and said: "Lin girl, this is the entrance to the spiritual vein. After entering the spiritual vein, remember not to rush in, and don't touch the restrictions here, otherwise it will trigger the restrictions, which will cause injuries or even death."

After saying that, he reminded: "Don't be stubborn, you can choose to quit."

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded and walked towards the entrance of the spiritual vein.

The elder wanted to follow Lin Xiaoxiao in, but after thinking about it, he stopped and said: "Okay, I'll send you here, remember not to force it."

"Thank you for the reminder, elder, don't worry, I know my limits." Lin Xiaoxiao turned around, waved her hand, and resolutely raised her foot and stepped into the entrance of the spiritual vein.

The elder watched Lin Xiaoxiao disappear into the entrance of the spirit vein, his face gradually revealed a trace of strangeness, and then his figure flashed and quietly followed.

At this time,

At the entrance of the spirit vein, light emerged, and a vortex-like entrance appeared.

Lin Xiaoxiao stepped in, and in an instant, she entered a vast and endless ocean.

Under her feet, the turbulent sea water was constantly churning and roaring, and in the sky about a hundred meters above her head, a huge disc was hanging, emitting brilliant light and illuminating the surroundings.

This is a huge and unparalleled void moon.

In this void moon, you can vaguely see the phantom of a saint floating, and each phantom of a saint exudes a power that transcends the heavens, which makes Lin Xiaoxiao tremble.

Lin Xiaoxiao knew that this was the ancestor of the Piaomiao Holy Palace and the relics left by generations of saints.

Lin Xiaoxiao stood in this giant moon in the void, feeling as if she was in the core of the planet. Endless power poured in from all directions, gathered into a river, and poured into her body, strengthening her power.

But Lin Xiaoxiao was not happy at all, because she still had a mission to do.

"In order to survive..."

She muttered to herself, took out the black date pit that Qin Mu had just given her, and looked at the shape of the date pit, she was a little at a loss.

As soon as the black date pit appeared, the air in the whole space seemed to become extremely sticky, even making it difficult for her to breathe.

"What on earth is this thing, it actually contains such amazing energy!"

Feeling the tremendous energy contained in this black date core, she knew that what Qin Mu asked her to do was very dangerous and could even cost her life.

But she had no choice.

Because if she didn't do what Qin Mu said, she would be killed by Qin Mu immediately.

"No... I can't die... No matter what, I have to live!"

"As long as I'm alive, I can practice slowly and improve my strength. One day, I will become as powerful as him, and then I can take revenge!"

Lin Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and she finally made up her mind.
