The Long-Nosed Immortal died.
A beam of golden light, symbolizing good fortune, entered Zhong Lingxin's consciousness.
In a flash, Zhong Lingxin threw the corpse of the Long-Nosed Immortal into the Nine-Story Pagoda.
The peach and pear blossoms were caught in a large basin.
After taking a stroll around the territory of the Long-Nosed Immortal, Ruyi returned and discussed with Zhong Lingxin: "Xinxin, the territory of the Long-Nosed Immortal is relatively well preserved. Why don't we ask the Old Green Ox to move to this territory, and you can collect more immortal stones, immortal mines, and immortal herbs from the Old Green Ox's territory?"
Zhong Lingxin had no opinion on whether or not to accept it.
She has already acquired a celestial stone mine in the territory of the Nine-Headed Lion King, and she can acquire one from the Old Green Ox as well.
Ruyi was overjoyed and ran out to call the old green ox.
Zhong Lingxin stayed in the territory of the Long-Nosed Immortal and carefully observed the array set up by the Long-Nosed Immortal.
Talented players have their own unique strategies for setting up formations.
Zhong Lingxin became engrossed in it and began to learn little by little.
This study lasted for more than ten years.
Her formation level was directly upgraded to the seventh grade.
When she looked up, she saw that in the open area, the immortals who had entered the secret realm were using talismans to break the formation, and they were almost able to break it.
Zhong Lingxin waved her hands, quickly repairing the nearly broken formation. At the same time, she added a complex spatial formation to the existing one, and then added a time formation and a hurricane formation within the spatial formation. With these formations stacked together, even if an immortal wanted to use a mustard seed-sized magical treasure in the future, they wouldn't be able to enter the territory easily.
This is Zhong Lingxin's way of providing an extra layer of protection for the peace-loving old ox, so that it won't get upset.
After the formation was perfected, Zhong Lingxin asked the old green ox to imbue it with her divine sense and then taught it to control the formation little by little.
The old green ox was overjoyed. Not only did it give Zhong Lingxin everything from its territory, but it also took Zhong Lingxin on several tours of its current green ox territory, giving her all the immortal plants and minerals it could.
In its words, no one will be able to enter this territory in the future; it has plenty of patience to wait for the seedlings to grow up.
The man and the ox strolled around slowly. During their casual conversation, the old ox mentioned that when it was a calf, it had once mischievously entered a spatial node and almost couldn't get back.
Zhong Lingxin was extremely interested in the spatial node that the old ox had mentioned.
We carefully questioned the old ox about how it entered and exited the area.
The old green ox slowly recalled, "This inner area used to belong to several great immortal beasts. When I was a child, I was naughty and didn't have any territory, so I would wander around the secret realm. Occasionally, I would wander into the inner area and be chased away by the long-nosed immortal."
Back then, the Long-Nosed Fairy hadn't entered the inner circle, and it wasn't as bad as it is now. After chasing me for a long time, it turned back.
In my panic, I ran wildly toward the center of the perimeter.
As I was running, my legs suddenly gave way, and I started to fall downwards in a daze.
At that moment, I thought, "Oh no, I'm going to die."
But after falling for a while, my feet touched the ground.
What a huge green meadow! I didn't want to leave.
There are also many immortal plants there, all of which are of a very high level.
I wandered around for a few days, but no one paid any attention to me.
I kept eating the grass and fairy fruits from that field.
When I reached the middle of the grassy field, my legs gave way, and I had to turn back.
Old Green Ox recalled with regret: "If I had known that the center of the grassland was a teleportation node, I would never have gone to the center. I would have eaten the outer circle before coming out."
Zhong Lingxin asked the old ox, "Do you remember where you went in from?"
The old ox shook his head: "I don't remember. I just remember running desperately out of that forest to the south. Sometimes I was flying on clouds, sometimes I was running in the fields. I really don't remember. I tried to go in several times afterward, but no matter how I ran, I couldn't get in."
"Then come out."
"The grassy slope outside my territory is right outside. I've practically trampled that slope flat, but I still haven't been able to get back. After so much time, I almost forgot about it. It was only when you mentioned this spatial array that I remembered."
"Hmm, how many years has it been?"
"Ten or twenty thousand years. If that point can be found, the immortal herbs and fruits that are publicly known are probably all over ten thousand years old."
"Not necessarily, some will fall off when the time comes."
"That's right. But since you know spatial arrays, why don't you go look for them? I found them. There are many eighth and ninth grade immortal herbs in there. I saw Phoenix Marrow Grass, Gentian Flower... There's also a pond next to the meadow with ninth grade Pure Heart Lotus. It's a pity that the level is too high. I was just a calf at the time, so I didn't dare to eat it. If I had known, I would have picked some and stored them in my internal space. At least now I can occasionally eat a petal of lotus."
Zhong Lingxin was extremely tempted; the Phoenix Marrow Grass and Gentian Flower were all ninth-grade immortal plants.
And the Pure Heart Lotus is an excellent celestial plant for protecting one's divine consciousness.
The higher the level of an immortal, the more difficult it is to advance. The main reason is that they experience too many things in their lives, and they are prone to accidents when undergoing tribulation.
As long as one has the Heart-Purifying Pill made from the Heart-Purifying Lotus, one will not be afraid of going into demonic possession when undergoing the tribulation of lightning.
There are also Phoenix Marrow Grass and Gentian Flower, which can be used to refine Dragon and Phoenix Pills. When undergoing tribulation, they can help immortals withstand part of the tribulation lightning and double the chance of passing the tribulation.
Zhong Lingxin was short of body-tempering elixirs and was worried about the tribulation lightning at the Immortal Lord stage.
If one can refine the Dragon-Phoenix Pill, one can advance in rank while simultaneously drawing upon heavenly lightning to temper the body, greatly enhancing the strength of the physical form.
She's only a seventh-grade alchemist right now, so she shouldn't even think about refining the Dragon-Phoenix Pill.
Even so, she could temper her body while undergoing the tribulation of lightning by directly consuming Phoenix Marrow Grass and Gentian Flower.
It's just that the process is a little more painful and longer.
Moreover, with the Phoenix Marrow Grass and Gentian Flower, she could plant several seedlings in the Nine-Layer Pagoda, which would provide an inexhaustible supply for the future.
Just do it.
Zhong Lingxin bid farewell to the old green ox, transformed into a gentle breeze, and headed towards the southern woods.
Ruyi accompanied Zhong Lingxin as they carefully searched for that spatial node.
“I’ve circled this secret realm eight hundred times and still haven’t seen that spatial node. You’d better be careful.”
"Yes, the old green ox was running south all the way. According to its speed, it ran for half a day, sometimes flying through the clouds and sometimes running wildly on the ground. It should have reached the middle of the city."
"It should be, because it was originally moving back and forth between the middle and inner perimeters."
"It should be around here. Let's search carefully. I know nothing about spatial arrays, Xin Xin, it's all up to you."
"There's nothing unusual about this area, so it's not easy to find."
“Look carefully. The old ox has run around this area eight hundred times but hasn’t come out. There must be a triggering condition for this space.”
"That makes sense. I'll look for it more carefully."
Zhong Lingxin circled back and forth within a radius of a thousand miles, not missing a single stone or sapling on the ground.
She spotted several miraculous herbs that would easily be overlooked if one wasn't paying close attention.
However, they found no unusual fluctuations of immortal energy anywhere.
