Lingxiao Immortal Clan

Time passed slowly.

Five days ago.

The third-grade superior ice spirit vein deep underground in the Ice and Snow Valley was fine.

But starting from the sixth day, its huge body began to be gradually burst by the countless spiritual energy that swarmed into its body.

Tiny cracks gradually spread throughout its body.

The source in its body also gradually dispersed.

Although this move directly increased the ice spirit energy near the Ice and Snow Valley, the faces of Ling Pengyun and others who were watching became darker and darker.

This situation is not a good thing.

If it continues like this, when the source of the ice spirit vein is exhausted, it will disappear from this world.

At that time, Ling Pengyun will suffer a direct loss.

Fortunately, the old formation master Yun He was sent by the Yun Qian lineage to come here.

I saw that the old formation master Yun He raised his hand and waved, and he blessed several formations on the fourth-grade spiritual formation here.

Then, the formation suddenly transformed into countless array patterns containing mysterious power, directly attached to the entire body of the Ice Spirit Vein, like a layer of armor.

And the broken gaps on the body of the Ice Spirit Vein were immediately blocked.

In addition, the old formation master Yunhe also pinched the formula to inject several array magics into the body of the Ice Spirit Vein to help it refine the spiritual energy during the period of spiritual energy infusion and increase the chance of condensing the Nascent Soul.

And this move was indeed useful, and the situation in its body quickly stabilized.

However, those array magics seemed to consume a lot of energy, even the old formation master Yunhe could not bear it.

During this period, the old formation master Yunhe repeatedly took those precious fourth-level soul-returning pills.

"It's done!"

Seeing this scene, Ling Pengyun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he was particularly grateful to the old formation master Yunhe.

What the old formation master did now was tantamount to saving the life of the Ice Spirit Vein of the Old Liu Family.

For this reason, he was also thinking about how to return such a favor.

He still knew the etiquette.

Then, another five days passed.

With the help of the old formation master Yunhe, the ice spirit vein finally condensed an ordinary Nascent Soul without any danger.

However, with the spiritual energy containing the essence of Tao during the last four days of spiritual energy infusion, the quality of the Nascent Soul gradually improved.

In the end, it was extremely lucky to reach the level of a middle-level Nascent Soul.

This incident also made Ling Pengyun and others extremely happy.

According to their understanding of the qualifications of the spirit vein, with the strength of the middle-level Nascent Soul condensed by the ice spirit vein, as long as the spirit vein can safely survive the next thunderbolt, then this spirit vein will have a three-point chance of entering the fourth-level middle-grade realm in the future.

And the fourth-level middle-grade spirit vein is rare.

In the entire Northern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World, it is estimated that only the three major immortal gates have it.

After a while, when the spiritual energy infusion stopped, the Nascent Soul condensed by the ice spirit vein also attracted the heaven and earth calamity cloud.

A series of black clouds of disasters also appeared above the Ice and Snow Valley.

As the disaster clouds gradually accumulated strength, the first disaster thunder also fell.

However, this thunder was blocked by a fourth-level medium-grade formation set up in advance by the old formation master Yunhe, and the disaster thunder was directly absorbed into the formation.

Ling Pengyun was shocked when he saw this.

"Fourth-level lightning-inducing and disaster-overcoming formation?"

The Ling family set up a weakened version of this formation, the third-level lightning-inducing and destruction formation, in the territory of the Treading Cloud Valley on the other side of the Baiyun Mountains.

This formation was obtained by Ling Pengyun from the Canglan Bihai Sect in his early years.

Of course, the Canglan Bihai Sect also has a method to set up a fourth-level lightning-inducing and disaster-overcoming formation.

And it is said that this formation was created by an ancestor of the Canglan Bihai Sect who had a thunder spirit root ten thousand years ago, who spent countless years to create it.

Under such circumstances, Ling Pengyun also thought that the Canglan Bihai Sect was also a subordinate force of the Xinghai Pavilion.

"According to the information, the talented Canglan Master of the Canglan Blue Sea Sect is also from my Yun Qian lineage."

"It is possible that the senior who created this formation that can absorb the thunderbolts is also from the Yun Qian lineage."

A few days later, with the help of the powerful power of the fourth-level intermediate-grade thunderbolt-absorbing formation, the thunderbolts attracted by the ice spirit vein were absorbed cleanly without hurting the spirit vein at all.

During this period, the old formation master Yunhe even used a special secret method to cooperate with this formation to attract some thunderbolts and pass them into the body of the ice spirit vein, consolidating its foundation.

Once this is done, the ice spirit vein will not need to spend countless time to consolidate its cultivation in the future.

Moreover, the probability of this spirit vein impacting the fourth-level intermediate-grade realm in the future can be increased by one point.

At this time, the remaining power contained in the calamity cloud in the sky also turned into a piece of nectar and fell into the body of the ice spirit vein that was like a dragon in the deep underground.

His broken body also recovered quickly.

Moreover, his cultivation also quickly entered the fourth level at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In an instant, countless pure ice spirits suddenly dispersed from his body to nourish the world.

The old formation master Yunhe, who was suspended in the air, also greeted Ling Pengyun.

"Pengyun, nephew, this is the spirit feedback after the spirit vein was promoted. It is the purest spirit in his body. It doesn't take much time to purify it. This is a good opportunity."

"Quickly enter into meditation and practice."

"It may save you from decades or even hundreds of years of hard practice under normal circumstances."

Although Ling Pengyun had already had some thoughts about this, after all, Master Yunhe was the great contributor to this matter, so how could he dare to directly absorb the spiritual energy fed back to practice.

Immediately, he said to Master Yunhe.

"Uncle Yunhe, you should come."

"You have made great contributions this time, and the success of this Ice Spiritual Vein in entering the fourth level is closely related to you. If it weren't for you, this Ice Spiritual Vein would definitely fail this time. This kind of favor, I and my family have no way to repay."

"I just hope that the spiritual energy fed back by this spiritual vein can help you a little."

Master Yunhe was particularly satisfied when he heard this.

But he waved his hand and refused.

"I don't have much time left, so it's meaningless to practice again."

"Besides, you and the ancestor still have a bet. If the spiritual energy fed back by the spiritual vein here helps, the probability of success of this bet can be greater."

"Nephew, there's no need to be polite. Quickly absorb the pure ice spiritual energy."

Ling Pengyun couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this.

"I didn't expect that this old formation master also has concerns about his life span."

Then, he took out some precious fourth-level spiritual objects that he got when the Yuanying Ceremony was held in Sanxianfang City from his storage bag and handed them to the old formation master Yunhe.

"Uncle, since you don't want to accept the spiritual energy fed back by the spiritual vein here, please accept these spiritual objects. Otherwise, I will feel ashamed of your great kindness."

The old formation master Yunhe said with a smile.

"You are thoughtful."

"In that case, I won't be polite to you."

After that, he put away the fourth-level spiritual objects.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun felt relieved. He also sat cross-legged on the ground and began to practice the technique.

In an instant, Ling Pengyun's body spread out infinite suction, absorbing all the pure ice spirit energy fed back by the surrounding ice spirit vein into his body.

The place where he was also turned into a spiritual energy vortex.

Moreover, as he absorbed more and more ice spirit energy into his body, his cultivation became stronger and stronger.

In just two years, he actually touched the bottleneck of the first level of the Nascent Soul.

In the end, it took another half a year for him to successfully break through it and finally entered the second level of the Nascent Soul.

Then, he used the spirit energy fed back by the ice spirit vein to improve his cultivation.

However, at the end of the third year, the feeding back of the ice spirit vein ended.

This also made Ling Pengyun feel a little unsatisfied.

"It's a pity that this opportunity is too short."

"Otherwise, if the spirit vein can feed back for another two or three years, I can take advantage of this opportunity to break through to the third level of the Nascent Soul."

"Then the matter of entering the middle stage of the Nascent Soul in a hundred years with Ancestor Xinghai can be smoother."

"However, the current progress in cultivation is not bad."

"At least it is enough to reduce the hard work of forty or fifty years with the help of a large number of resources."

"Moreover, judging from the current situation, I should have a high probability of entering the third level of the Nascent Soul in the next forty or fifty years. At that time, there will be fifty years for me to enter the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."

"It can barely be considered as enough time."

Ling Pengyun was secretly happy.

Afterwards, he felt the gains of entering the second level of the Nascent Soul.

His spiritual power and consciousness have increased by about 20%, which is a few points stronger than the spiritual power and consciousness of ordinary third-level Nascent Soul cultivators.

After careful calculation, his consciousness can almost cover a range of about 350,000 to 360,000 miles around.

This kind of thing also made his face more joyful.

He also opened his eyes.

Immediately, he saw his wife Yan Siyi and daughter Ling Chengxin guarding him, and the old formation master Yunhe sitting in meditation in the distance.

After he woke up his wife and daughter, he chatted with them for a while, and then went to thank the old formation master Yunhe.

The old formation master Yunhe waved his hand and said.

"No need to be polite, we are all from the same lineage, and we should support each other."

"Now that you have successfully come out of retreat, I will return to the sect to get the fourth-level Nadi Zaomai formation."

After saying that, he left this place.

And Ling Pengyun also knew that this senior had been meditating beside him for nearly three years to protect him.

This kind of thing also made Ling Pengyun respect this old senior a little more.

Then, he entered the Ice and Snow Valley containing the fourth-level lower-grade ice spirit vein with his wife and daughter beside him.

Suddenly, a valley of rich ice spirits rushed towards him.

Ling Pengyun felt it carefully and sighed.

"The strength of the spirits produced after this spirit vein entered the fourth stage is indeed different."

"With this strength of spirits, it is probably enough to support the cultivation of three or four Yuanying early Zhenjun."

However, the valley was full of gullies due to the previous promotion of the spirit veins.

He first performed an earth-based spell to directly level the place.

Then, he found a place with the richest spirits and built a cave with a good range with earth-based spells.

Once this was done, he found another place and used the ice spirits in the valley to perform the fourth-level earth-pregnancy spell to open up the fourth-level spirit field.

Originally, Ling Pengyun's spirit plant was stuck in the third-level middle-grade realm, but because of the huge enlightenment opportunity when he condensed the five-element Yuanying, he did peek into the mystery of the spirit plant.

For this reason, his spiritual plant path directly crossed the realm of his natal spiritual plant at that time and directly entered the quasi-fourth-level realm, but he had no fourth-level spiritual plant inheritance, otherwise he could have directly crossed to that realm at that time.

Later, he did get a spiritual plant inheritance from Yun Qian's lineage that could directly reach the fourth-level upper-grade realm.

During the years he was stationed in Sanxianfang City, he had been comprehending this inheritance.

Then, in just a few years, he successively comprehended several fourth-level lower-grade spiritual plant techniques and officially raised the spiritual plant path to the fourth-level lower-grade realm.

But at this point, his spiritual plant attainments were considered to have stopped. If he wanted to improve in the future, it would still be difficult for him to rely on himself, so he needed to rely on the power of his natal spiritual plant.

One year later.

A full four acres of fourth-level lower-grade spiritual fields appeared in this ice and snow valley.

And this probably only used up about 50% to 60% of the spiritual energy in the valley, and the remaining 40% of the spiritual energy was enough for his daily practice, even if some low-level cultivators practiced together.

Afterwards, Ling Pengyun planted the two hundred third-level spiritual herbs he had bought from the Yuanying Zhenjun of the major righteous sects some time ago in the four-acre spiritual field, and began to mature the spiritual plants with the fourth-level spiritual plant technique.

These spiritual plants are the five-element spiritual herbs that can be used to refine cultivation pills.

Ling Pengyun planned to cultivate them to the fourth level, and then look for the Haiyun Zhenjun who was in the Haiyun Immortal Sect, one of the three major immortal sects in the Northern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation Realm, to help refine them into pills to assist in cultivation.

At present, he has just comprehended the spiritual plant techniques in the Yunqian spiritual plant inheritance.

For this reason, the second-level spiritual plant techniques he mastered, the Yunqian Returning Rain Technique and the Yunqian Universal Illumination Technique, can increase the growth rate of spiritual plants by two times respectively.

The only core technique, the Yunqian Pregnancy Technique, can only increase the growth rate of spiritual plants by four times.

In total, the growth rate of spiritual plants can be accelerated by about eight times.

But Ling Pengyun is satisfied with this bonus.

According to his estimation, the third-level spiritual herbs that originally needed a thousand years to enter the fourth level can also compress their growth time to about 125 years.

Of course, if the spiritual herbs themselves have a poor foundation, even if they reach the thousand-year level, it is difficult to enter the fourth level.

Anyway, according to Ling Pengyun's estimation, with his help, these four acres of two hundred spiritual herbs should have a 20% to 30% chance of entering the fourth level.

That is about 40 to 50 spiritual herbs.

And this number is not bad, at least enough for him to wait until the next batch of fourth-level spiritual herbs mature.

"Now we just have to wait for time to pass."

"Although these spiritual herbs can hardly help me in the past hundred years, after the Nascent Soul Ceremony and other things, I have no shortage of cultivation resources in the past hundred years."

"And these spiritual herbs here are enough to pave the way for my future."

Ling Pengyun looked at the four acres of spiritual herbs in front of him with a little expectation and said secretly. (End of this chapter)
