Main Text Chapter 666: Cave
"How long do you plan to practice here?" Chen Ruoqing looked at Ishikawa and frowned slightly, because she couldn't see through Ishikawa's cultivation. It seemed that Ishikawa had made a lot of progress in the past ten years.
"Maybe a few months, maybe a few years!" Ishikawa replied without comment. .
In fact, Ishikawa didn't know how long he would practice here.
According to Ishikawa's idea, the shorter the time of practice here, the better. As long as he reached the peak of the late Jindan, Ishikawa would immediately go to Tianyi Island or Lingshe Island to search for the method of forming a baby.
Chen Ruoqing didn't feel unhappy at all for Ishikawa's ambiguous answer, and said: "Since you plan to practice here for a long time, why not open up a cave. I have had this idea for a long time. It's just that I can't open it because of my own strength!"
Chen Ruoqing also wanted Ishikawa to stay for a few more days, but she didn't want to say it clearly.
Ishikawa was not very interested in this, but instead focused all his attention on the lotus in the jade pool. The spiritual power in this spiritual pool didn't seem to be sufficient, and the lotus hardly grew.
Ishikawa also knew that this kind of extremely rare spiritual creature in the world needs a lot of spiritual power to grow, and the growth rate is very slow. Ten years is a very short time for such a spiritual creature. What's more, the spiritual power in the spiritual pool was used by Chen Ruoqing, leaving very little for this thing.
If this lotus was an ordinary spiritual grass, Ishikawa would have moved it directly to the Immortal Mansion. But this lotus must grow in water, and there is no pond in the Immortal Mansion for it to grow. This gave Ishikawa a headache.
After pondering for a while, Ishikawa said: "Fellow Daoist Chen. Since you have already achieved success in the practice, and you have exhausted the spiritual power in this spiritual pool, this spiritual pool is useless, right? I will open up a cave for you to practice. How about giving this spiritual pool to me?"
When Chen Ruoqing heard that Ishikawa was going to open up a cave for her, she thought that Ishikawa suddenly got the idea and wanted to do the double cultivation with her, and she couldn't help blushing, but when she heard that Ishikawa wanted this spiritual pool, her eyebrows couldn't help but slightly raised.
"Since we have agreed earlier, let's leave this spirit pond to Fellow Daoist Shi to deal with!" Chen Ruoqing took a look at the spirit pond. Although this spirit pond is no longer of much use, it is also the place where he has practiced since childhood, so he still feels reluctant to leave.
Chen Ruoqing agreed so readily, which surprised Ishikawa.
Ishikawa decided to help Chen Ruoqing and himself open up a cave for future practice. As for how to open up a cave, Ishikawa already had a general outline in his mind.
On this Dragon Claw Island, there is no spiritual peak, not even a small mound, so it seems impossible to open up a cave. However, Ishikawa will never build a thatched house on the island. This thatched house has almost no defense and concealment function, especially for high-level cultivators. The effect of the formation is very low.
And the trip to the Golden Clam Sea, especially the experience in the Xu family formation, made Ishikawa's vision grow a lot. Ishikawa also has another view on the cave.
Ishikawa flew up the flying sword and escaped into the sea.
Chen Ruoqing was slightly surprised and followed closely.
In the sea water. Ishikawa slowly circled the island.
The Dragon Claw Island under the sea water has a different scene. There seem to be thorn-like reefs below. They go straight into the seabed. There are huge gaps between the five dragon claws. Many fish use this as their home.
The position of the dragon claw is naturally not suitable for opening a cave. The place suitable for building a cave is the dragon palm.
Ishikawa found a place that was sunken into the cave, and took out the flying sword in his hand and began to swing it.
Stones and sand flew, and soon, a huge cave appeared. The cave extended diagonally upwards. After several feet, the sea water could no longer flow in.
From the outside, the cave entrance was extremely inconspicuous.
No one would have thought that the entrance to the cave was actually in the sea water.
Ishikawa made a slight repair, and a small room of about two or three feet was formed at the end of the cave.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, how is this place?" Ishikawa asked Chen Ruoqing as if asking.
"Not bad!" Chen Ruoqing looked at the cave and was puzzled. She thought to herself, "Could this be a cave? This is too simple, isn't it?"
Shichuan nodded and began to arrange the formation. After a while, a hidden formation was arranged. Shichuan did not hide it. Chen Ruoqing could definitely see through the formation.
Shichuan directly taught Chen Ruoqing how to manipulate the formation, and then said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, starting from this room, you start to open up the cave you want in any direction."
Chen Ruoqing finally understood what was going on.
This seemed to be a little different from what she thought. She originally thought that the two would be in the same cave.
Chen Ruoqing showed an awkward smile on her face, flew out the flying sword, and began to slowly open up.
Shichuan also flew out the flying sword and opened up his own cave.
For a Jindan-stage cultivator, opening up a cave is an extremely easy thing. In just a short moment, the two had already opened up their own caves.
The entrances of their caves faced each other.
Ishikawa was quite satisfied with the cave here. After setting up the concealment formation here, even if someone came to Longzhua Island, they would not be able to find it.
Ishikawa can practice in the cave with peace of mind.
There is a reason why Ishikawa is so careful.
Although there are very few cultivators passing by here, not long ago, when Ishikawa was crossing the tribulation in the thunderstorm sea area, he actually met two people.
Although Ishikawa did not see the appearance of the two people clearly, he knew that their cultivation was definitely not low.
And this place is not far from the thunderstorm sea area. If the two monks come back after a few days and pass by this island, it will cause a lot of trouble to Ishikawa who is practicing.
Ishikawa is also quite distressed by the appearance of these two people.
If they meet again during the next tribulation, Ishikawa can guarantee that the divine refining technique will work automatically and can scare the two.
After all, with Ishikawa's current strength, he can't compete with the Yuanying period monks. So he can only start from the cave house for the time being, and as for the future, he will make more plans.
After building the cave house, Ishikawa returned to Longzhua Island and dug out the entire spirit pool.
This spirit pool is the same as Ishikawa imagined, and it is not connected to the underground spirit vein. Perhaps it is because of the long time, the spirit vein has been exhausted, or for some other reason.
Ishikawa hesitated again and again, and did not put the entire spirit pool into the immortal house.
The surroundings of this spiritual pool are all white jade pools, but there is no sign of being refined. Once this place enters the immortal palace, it is very likely to be destroyed, and this lotus will naturally not be saved.
So Ishikawa would rather move this spiritual pool into his own immortal palace first, and use a large number of golden clam beads to promote the birth, hoping that the spiritual lotus will mature earlier.
In the following time, Ishikawa practiced in seclusion all day long.
But the divine refining technique seemed to have fallen into a bottleneck, and Ishikawa did not gain much. Each seclusion time does not exceed one month.
So at the end of each month, Ishikawa would go out for a walk and hunt a few monsters.
Chen Ruoqing didn't know when he discovered this habit of Ishikawa. Every time Ishikawa went out to hunt monsters, Chen Ruoqing followed him.
In a blink of an eye, it has been a year since the cave was opened.
During this year, Ishikawa and Chen Ruoqing gradually became familiar with each other.
After getting familiar with each other, Ishikawa found that Chen Ruoqing seemed to be different from other cultivators, and did not have the greed of other cultivators.
After hunting monsters, Shichuan took out all the treasures from the monsters, took out some elixirs, and gave them to Chen Ruoqing for her cultivation.
Chen Ruoqing did not hold back and told Shichuan a big secret on Longzhua Island. There was a special teleportation array at the tip of the little finger of Longzhua Island. Through this teleportation array, you can directly reach a very small affiliated island of Tianyi Island.
However, every time it is used, a large amount of spiritual stones are consumed.
Shichuan did not have any spiritual stones at all. He had already used them up when he escaped from the pursuit of the Yuanying period cultivator. Chen Ruoqing had some spiritual stones, but they were also used up in the past ten years of cultivation. Because Chen Ruoqing usually practiced with all her heart and did not consider how to earn spiritual stones, she eventually ate up all the money.
This made Shichuan speechless. Chen Ruoqing was indeed spoiled by her master.
So the two of them only knew such a formation, but could not use it.
In this year, in addition to practicing and hunting monsters, Shichuan spent the most time studying the orange golden clam.
Ishikawa studied the orange golden clam carefully in the hidden formation countless times.
Putting his hand on the orange golden clam, Ishikawa seemed to be able to feel a strong heartbeat, one after another, as if resonating with Ishikawa's heart.
Ishikawa tried to remove a part of the shell from the orange golden clam, but failed.
In order to study the orange golden clam, Ishikawa even set up a room filled with sea water to breed the orange golden clam in it, but Ishikawa was disappointed that the orange golden clam did not change at all, as if it was dead.
"The spirituality of this thing is incomparable to ordinary monsters!" Ishikawa said in a deep voice. The red golden clam and the blue golden clam that were also placed in Ishikawa would try to open their shells and absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth every midnight, except for the orange golden clam.
Countless times, Ishikawa wanted to throw the orange golden clam into the immortal mansion, but he finally endured it. After all, this thing is too rare.
For Chen Ruoqing, it seems that he is completely immersed in this kind of cultivation life.
Since her master passed away, she has been practicing alone. She is not only worried about the Dragon Claw Island being taken away by others, but also worried about invasion.
After Ishikawa became the owner of Dragon Claw Island, she stayed in seclusion for another ten years.
Chen Ruoqing is not a cultivator who cannot bear loneliness.
But once she is exposed to the wonderful life in the outside world, she can't help herself. Just going out with Ishikawa to hunt monsters every month makes Chen Ruoqing excited.
Her affection for Ishikawa is getting stronger and stronger.
