Chapter 167 What do you want to say
Zhong Lingxin excitedly waved her hand and took out the jade hoe.
Zhong Chun shouted urgently, "Collect it! It's meant to be collected!"
Zhong Lingxin said "Oh," and hurriedly put away the jade hoe. She then enveloped the muddy ground in the center of the cave with her divine sense and silently chanted, "Put it away!"
The small patch of soil and tree in the middle of the cave disappeared and were moved into the Nine-Story Pagoda.
Zhong Chun gripped the Enlightenment Tea Tree with one hand and pointed to the center of the cave with the other, urgently shouting, "Wood Spirit Spring, Wood Spirit Spring, hurry!"
This time, Zhong Lingxin was no longer so excited that she forgot herself. She plunged into the water, found the spring, and put it into the Nine-Story Pagoda.
The entire cave began to shake.
Zhong Lingxin dared not waste any time. She knew the cave was about to collapse, so she grabbed Huanhuan's tail and let Huanhuan swim quickly out of the cave and out of the cliff. She then put away the illusion array and quickly slipped away.
Behind them, the original trapping formation was still in place, so for a moment no difference could be seen.
But Zhong Lingxin knew that the Wood Spirit Spring and Wood Spirit Pearl had been taken away, and the spiritual energy here would soon be unable to support the operation of the trapping array. At most, the trapping array would break in one or two days, and she would have to leave Feiyun City today.
She already has two spirit orbs, one for wood and one for fire.
Zhong Chun advised her not to rush to purify her spiritual root, but to collect the three spiritual pearls of metal, water, and earth to make the Nine-Layered Pagoda complete with all five elements, which would bring her more benefits in the future.
Many immortals in the celestial realm, after acquiring their own small worlds, try to make sure that the five elements are complete within those small worlds.
Zhong Lingxin accepted Zhong Chun's suggestion and entrusted both spirit pearls to Zhong Chun for safekeeping.
Zhong Chun was delighted and buried the Fire Spirit Orb in the south of the Nine-Story Pagoda, planted the Enlightenment Tea Tree in the east of the Nine-Story Pagoda, and planted the Wood Spirit Orb under the Enlightenment Tea Tree so that the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Wood Spirit Orb could grow and nourish each other.
The spiritual energy within the Nine-Story Pagoda quickly changed, with a significant increase in wood and fire spiritual energy.
From then on, Zhong Lingxin began to pay attention to the other three spiritual beads, hoping to replenish the spiritual energy of the Nine-Layer Pagoda so that it could operate on its own.
As dawn broke, small groups of people began to enter Wanlv Lake for sightseeing.
Zhong Lingxin mingled in the crowd and slowly walked out, passing through the exhibition hall and heading straight for the teleportation array. She left Feiyun City and made her way back to Qingyun Sect.
Back at Qingyang Cave in the back mountain, Zhong Lingxin happily took out the spiritual herbs she had dug up on Lingyun Peak and gave several of them to her master and Uncle Xuanyuan.
Venerable Qingyang smiled, saying, "These things are all my disciple's filial piety."
He glanced at Zhong Lingxin. His disciple's trip wasn't just about digging up the medicinal herbs in that basin; more importantly, she was in a wonderful mood.
When you're in a good mood, your mind is at peace.
You can start working on your promotion now.
Zhong Lingxin chuckled.
Her master understood her best.
Three months later, noises came from Zhong Lingxin's cultivation room.
As if drawn by an attraction, the surging spiritual energy all rushed into Zhong Lingxin's cultivation room.
This time, Xuan Yuan prepared several jade boxes in advance, specifically to hold the impurities and grime that Zhong Lingxin expelled during her advancement.
Zhong Lingxin hadn't thought of any of this. At this moment, her dantian was painfully swollen, and the spiritual liquid had begun to slowly rotate.
The swirling spiritual liquid, carrying the surging spiritual energy that followed, spun faster and faster until it gradually blurred into a mass.
Despite the pain, Zhong Lingxin remembered the steps her master had taught her for forming her core, opened her dantian to absorb spiritual energy, accelerated the rotation of the spiritual energy, and transformed it into more spiritual liquid.
The spiritual liquid spun rapidly, and in the center of the dantian, a faint light gradually appeared in the blurry mass of spiritual liquid.
Zhong Lingxin knew that the spiritual liquid had condensed into beads.
However, at this point, the bead cannot be called a golden core; it can only be called a spiritual energy bead. The larger and more solid the bead she condenses becomes, the more tribulation clouds it attracts, and the more tribulation lightning descends from those clouds.
Only spiritual beads that have been struck by lightning can be called Golden Cores.
Zhong Lingxin increased the speed of the spiritual liquid's rotation, repeatedly condensing the bead in the center of the vortex.
Golden Elixir, Condensed!
Golden Elixir, condense again!
……
The golden elixir condenses and condenses again and again!
Extreme rotation, high compression.
Just as Zhong Lingxin felt her body was about to explode from the pain, a slight tremor came from her soul.
The rapidly spinning spiritual energy bead gradually slowed down.
The spiritual energy bead has been formed.
The next step is to be struck by lightning.
Qingyang Venerable Saint had already prepared the tribulation-crossing items for his disciple, and quickly handed them to his little disciple. With a wave of his sleeve, he sent Zhong Lingxin into the tribulation arena.
The tribulation of the Golden Core stage is something that happens almost every year for a sect, so it doesn't cause much of a stir, and not many people come to watch.
But Sect Leader Lu Linchen arrived.
He sat by the edge of the tribulation arena and talked with Venerable Qingyang.
"Uncle-Master, judging from this, Junior Sister Zhong has made very thorough preparations, with plenty of pills, array plates, and magic robes."
"Ah."
"Uncle-Master, now that Junior Sister Zhong has reached the Golden Core stage, would you like to go out and gain some experience to solidify her cultivation?"
"Ah."
"Uncle Master..."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
"Hehe, nothing can be hidden from Uncle-Master. Here's the thing, Ancestor Qingyu has taken the lead in reorganizing the sect's Elite Hall. What do you think... should Junior Sister Zhong also join the Elite Hall and be trained in the secret area? As you know, in another hundred years, it will be the time for various sects to redistribute resources, and I, your junior nephew, am under a lot of pressure."
"You'll have to ask her. My little apprentice is very principled, and I won't interfere with her decisions."
"Alright, Uncle-Master, I'll come to your Qingyang Cave in a few days to discuss it with Junior Sister. To be honest, I think highly of Junior Sister Zhong."
The Golden Core stage is the Tribulation of the Three Nines. Zhong Lingxin was well prepared and the tribulation was not too difficult. Soon, the heavens sent down sweet rain, indicating that she had successfully advanced.
After she secluded herself for a few days to comprehend the insights gained from the tribulation of lightning, Sect Master Lu arrived.
Zhong Lingxin had already heard her master mention Sect Leader Lu's intentions and was also very interested in the sect's Hall of Elites.
Without saying a word, Sect Leader Lu led Zhong Lingxin to a cliff in the back mountain and took out a token, which he then imprinted in a groove in the cliff.
The cliff face slowly shifted, revealing a stone door that was gradually opening.
Sect Master Lu's expression turned grave as he slowly said, "Our sect used to have more than a dozen secret realms like this, almost all of which were seized by the Lingyun Sect. This particular secret realm was guarded by one of our ancestors. During a battle with the Lingyun Sect, this ancestor sacrificed his divine consciousness to save Uncle Qinglong's father. At that time, witnessing the sect's downfall, he was filled with grief and indignation, and risked his life to blow up the entrance to this secret realm, barely managing to preserve it. Over the years, through the efforts of countless ancestors, it was finally opened twenty years ago. No disciples have entered this secret realm for ten thousand years, so it is extremely rich in spiritual herbs and minerals. Of course, there may also be some unknown situations inside, which will require your elite disciples to investigate."
As Sect Leader Lu was sighing, the stone door opened, and a male cultivator of medium build came out and asked with a smile, "Sect Leader, what kind of elite have you sent in this time?"
