Chapter 771: Breakthrough in cultivation technique, nonsense words

From "Old Demon Black Wind" being trapped by the golden glow to being beheaded by the flying sword, the whole thing happened in just a moment.

The crowd watching the scene saw this peak Core Formation demon cultivator, who had been famous for hundreds of years, beheaded by a Nascent Soul cultivator in the sky, and a look of shock appeared on everyone's face.

"I didn't expect the gap between Core Formation cultivators and Nascent Soul cultivators to be so large. This Old Demon Black Wind couldn't even last three rounds in the hands of Chen Chen Laozu Yun."

"Haha! Although this old demon has the cultivation of the peak of Core Formation, Chen Chen Laozu Yun is a middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Plus the secret magic treasure of Jinxia Palace, the Five-Colored Golden Bowl, which is specifically designed to restrain demon cultivators, dealing with a small Core Formation demon cultivator is naturally a piece of cake."

"Old Demon Black Wind has been arrogant for so many years. Meeting Chen Chen Laozu Yun today is like kicking an iron plate. He didn't die unjustly."

"Chen Chen Laozu Yun beheading Old Demon Black Wind today is really removing a great scourge for our Tianhai cultivation world."

Just when everyone was discussing, a red-robed woman stepping on a lotus leaf had already fallen from high altitude, and the flying sword that had just descended from the sky also quickly turned around and came to the woman's side.

Looking at the corpse of "Old Demon Black Wind" that was still locked by the five-colored glow not far away, this Supreme Elder of "Jinxia Palace," Chen Chen Laozu Yun, waved her hand gently, and a golden bowl emitting five-colored spiritual light flew down from the sky.

Under the spell of Chen Chen Laozu Yun, the golden bowl rotated rapidly, soon took back the five-colored glow shining on "Old Demon Black Wind," and finally fell into her hands.

Just after taking back the magic treasure "Five-Colored Golden Bowl," before Chen Chen Laozu Yun could step forward to check, a wisp of fine black energy quickly emerged from the corpse of "Old Demon Black Wind," taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to escape into the air.

Although it was still dozens of zhang away, this small action on the body of "Old Demon Black Wind" did not escape Chen Chen Laozu Yun's sharp eyes.

"In front of this seat, you still want to escape!"

Chen Chen Laozu Yun whispered, and then the "Five-Colored Golden Bowl" in her hand immediately shot out a five-colored glow, shining into the void.

After a while, the primordial spirit of "Old Demon Black Wind," which was wrapped in a wisp of black energy and wanted to escape, was directly fixed in mid-air.

Before the primordial spirit of the old demon could react, Chen Chen Laozu Yun had another high-tier Soul-Refining Talisman in her hand, which flew directly toward the position of the primordial spirit of "Old Demon Black Wind."

"Ah!..."

In just an instant, the primordial spirit of "Old Demon Black Wind" was wrapped by the Soul-Refining Talisman. Accompanied by a few screams, the primordial spirit of this Core Formation old demon, who had been powerful in the "Tianhai cultivation world" for hundreds of years, was directly burned into ashes by the "Soul-Refining Talisman" and dissipated between heaven and earth.

After completely beheading the primordial spirit of "Old Demon Black Wind," this Nascent Soul Supreme Elder of "Jinxia Palace" waved her hand gently and directly took the storage bag on the corpse.

Then she stepped on the lotus flower and flew back to high altitude, ignoring the crowd who were still in shock below.

Seeing this scene of a Nascent Soul cultivator taking action to kill a Core Formation demon cultivator, Song Song Qingming was not too surprised, and the expression on his face remained relatively calm.

This "Old Demon Black Wind" was just relying on a profound secret technique to restrain his own aura, which was why he dared to come to "Wind-Thunder Island" so boldly, wanting to mix into the secret realm and take a share of the loot during the chaos.

No matter how strong a Core Formation demon cultivator was, facing the three Nascent Soul cultivators on the island, he could not possibly have a chance to retreat unscathed. The moment "Old Demon Black Wind"'s identity was discovered, the fate of this demon had long been doomed.

Just after Chen Chen Laozu Yun left, the Core Formation elder of "Yujian Sect" walked forward again and explained to the crowd with a smile:

"The opening of this secret realm always involves such demon cultivators making trouble. However, fellow Daoists, don't worry. There is a Demon-Sealing Jin Guang Formation specifically designed to deal with demon cultivators arranged in front of the teleportation magic formation, and even Nascent Soul demon cultivators can hardly escape the detection of the formation."

"Rest assured, with three Nascent Soul ancestors here, there is no safer place in the entire Tianhai cultivation world than here. Next, please continue to come forward one by one to enter the secret realm."

After being told this, the originally somewhat messy team slowly returned to order, and the many cultivators at the scene began to come forward one by one to hand over spirit stones and enter the teleportation magic formation.

After walking forward for a while, a Foundation Establishment man who was originally queuing not far in front of Song Song Qingming suddenly walked out of the team while no one was paying attention and walked toward the outside of the beach.

However, he had only walked out for a short distance when he was stopped by a Core Formation cultivator who was maintaining order at the scene.

"Where is this fellow Daoist going!"

Hearing the inquiry of the patrolling Core Formation cultivator, the Foundation Establishment man hurriedly cupped his hands and replied: "This Senior, I just found out while queuing that I didn't bring enough spirit stones."

"I wandered around the market for a long time the day before yesterday and didn't notice that the spirit stones on my body were spent. This time, I am afraid I will miss this opportunity and have no way to enter the secret realm to search for treasures. I hope Senior can make it convenient for me to go back first!"

"Go back? It is not impossible for you to want to leave now, as long as you come forward to pass the formation test to prove you are not a demon cultivator, we will naturally not stop you."

Looking at the "Demon-Sealing Jin Guang Formation" next to the teleportation magic formation pointed out by the Core Formation cultivator, the Foundation Establishment man first nodded with a smile, then turned around and began to walk back with a natural face.

However, before he had walked far, this person suddenly took out a banner magic treasure and summoned dozens of cultivator vengeful spirits to pounce toward the position of the Core Formation cultivator behind him.

And the Foundation Establishment man, with a streak of light under his feet, flew away quickly without looking back, wanting to take advantage of the Core Formation cultivator dealing with his attack to escape from here.

Seeing this Foundation Establishment demon cultivator finally reveal his true colors, the Core Formation cultivator who blocked him showed a hint of a sneer on his face.

"Humph! Such petty tricks, daring to appear in front of me. Today, this Wind-Thunder Island is the place where you will be buried."

After spitting out a word of sarcasm, the Core Formation cultivator directly threw out a spear magic treasure emitting fierce flames, dancing into a ball of flames to disperse the vengeful spirits that had attacked in front of him.

Then he cast a spell with both hands, and the spear directly turned into a fire dragon to quickly catch up with the Foundation Establishment demon cultivator who was fleeing, soon rolling him into a ball of flames.

With only a scream, this demon cultivator with only middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, like the previous "Old Demon Black Wind," turned into ashes and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

Because this time it was just catching a Foundation Establishment demon cultivator, it did not cause too much commotion. The crowd just watched the fight for a while and soon returned to normal, continuing to queue to enter the secret realm.

Those major sect disciples had already entered for a while. If they didn't hurry up to enter the secret realm, they were afraid that the good things inside would fall into the hands of others first.

In this way, everyone slowly walked into the teleportation formation one after another and was directly teleported into the secret realm.

During the process of queuing for teleportation, several more unlucky demon cultivators mixed in the crowd were found by the law-enforcement cultivators guarding the teleportation magic formation.

These demon cultivators did not have the magical powers of "Old Demon Black Wind" before. They were basically Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the highest was only at the second layer of Core Formation. Without exception, they were all killed on the spot by the law-enforcement cultivators.

These demon cultivators were basically here to fish in troubled waters, thinking that their identities were well hidden, not knowing that from the moment they stepped onto this island, they had already thrown themselves into the net. After a familiar dizziness, Song Song Qingming, who walked into the teleportation magic formation, was teleported to the sky above a dense forest after just a moment.

Recovering from the dizziness, he scanned the very unfamiliar environment around him, and Song Song Qingming soon confirmed that he had entered the secret realm.

Seeing that no other cultivators were found around, Song Song Qingming raised his hand and wiped it lightly on the storage magic treasure at his waist, and a piece of animal skin map appeared in his hand immediately.

This map was prepared for him by Feng He long ago, to facilitate him to quickly confirm his location and find the place he wanted to go after entering the secret realm.

After looking at the map carefully, Song Song Qingming found that his location was in a corner near the northwest of the outer hall.

Although there were some places where spiritual items might appear near here, there was nothing Song Song Qingming could use, so he did not stay here for long but took out the "Phantom Boat" and flew directly toward the location of the inner hall in the middle of the secret realm.

The "Wind-Thunder Island" secret realm had two layers, inner and outer. Although the outer hall had a larger area, there were not many places to find spiritual items inside, and it was difficult to find high-tier spiritual items above the third tier.

And the inner hall was completely different. The spiritual items hidden inside were far superior to those in the outer hall. Not only could one find many third-tier spiritual items, but even fourth-tier spiritual items that assisted cultivators in forming their Nascent Soul could be encountered.

Of course, there were many high-tier spiritual items that could be found in the inner hall, but it was also more dangerous than the outer hall. Not only were there dense mechanisms and restrictions, but there were also many fierce puppet beasts specifically guarding these spiritual items.

If ordinary cultivators did not have enough ability, even if they entered the inner hall and found the location of the spiritual items, it would be difficult to have a chance to bring them out.

Moreover, there were no rules in the secret realm that forbade cultivators from fighting each other. If one was not careful here and encountered other cultivators who were stronger than oneself, it was common to be killed and robbed of treasures.

Therefore, every time the "Wind-Thunder Island" secret realm opened, Foundation Establishment cultivators and those Core Formation rogue cultivators with weaker strength basically only dared to move and search for treasures in the outer hall to save their lives.

Only the disciples of the six major sects who entered before, as well as some Core Formation experts who chose to act in groups, dared to take the initiative to go to the inner hall to seize treasures.

And Song Song Qingming, his main purpose in coming into the secret realm this time was not to search for spiritual items, so these spiritual items in the outer hall had no attraction to him.

After flying forward for more than ten miles, Song Song Qingming soon saw the first wave of cultivators he encountered in the secret realm, two ordinary cultivators who had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

These two were queuing not far behind Song Song Qingming before they were teleported in, so the locations where the three were teleported into the secret realm were also very close. The two who had just gathered in one place were just about to go to search for spiritual items around, when they saw a white flying boat flying from a distance in the sky.

Seeing a Core Formation expert passing by in the sky, they were so scared that they hurriedly hid in the forest below. It was just that their actions were a bit slow, and they were still discovered by Song Song Qingming at their hiding place.

Song Song Qingming, standing on the flying boat, although his gaze was fixed on the forest, did not stop the flying boat but flew away from this place quickly.

After Song Song Qingming had completely gone far away, the two breathed a sigh of relief and carefully walked out of the forest, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around to hurriedly escape from this place.

The space in the "Wind-Thunder Island" secret realm was several times larger than the "Taiyue Lake" secret realm that Song Song Qingming had been to years ago.

Song Song Qingming flew forward for two full days according to the direction indicated by the map before finally arriving at a high mountain not far from the inner hall. As long as he flew a few dozen more miles forward, he would almost be at the entrance of the inner hall.

Seeing that the spiritual power in his body was already running low, Song Song Qingming did not rush to enter the inner hall but found a relatively hidden valley nearby and opened a small cave on the side of a cliff covered by trees and drilled into it.

Along the way, Song Song Qingming also encountered many cultivators who were rushing to the inner hall like him. In order to avoid them as much as possible, Song Song Qingming thought about it and planned to go in a little later.

Otherwise, if he was alone and his spiritual power was consumed too much, if he encountered a powerful opponent after rushing in, he might suffer a loss because of this.

Song Song Qingming's main purpose this time was not for the spiritual items in the inner hall, so it didn't matter much to him if he went in later.

To prevent others from discovering his hiding place by mistake, Song Song Qingming arranged a third-tier concealment formation outside the cave, and then he felt relieved to take out a few spirit stones and sat in place to begin restoring his own spiritual power.

Although he was in a deserted mountain without spiritual veins, Song Song Qingming only meditated for a moment before immediately feeling that the heaven and earth spiritual energy in this secret realm was significantly more abundant than outside.

Just meditating for less than half an incense stick of time, Song Song Qingming restored his spiritual power to a full state with the help of the remnant map.

Seeing that it was still early, Song Song Qingming did not choose to rush to leave the cave but continued to operate the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" in his body, trying to absorb the rich heaven and earth energy here.

The heaven and earth energy around, following the guidance of spiritual power, soon began to flow into Song Song Qingming's body continuously. In less than half a quarter of an hour, he felt that a very dense heaven and earth energy appeared in his inner core.

Sure enough, as Song Song Qingming expected, the speed of absorbing heaven and earth energy in this secret realm was at least several times faster than his cultivation outside.

After meditating and practicing for a long time, Song Song Qingming suddenly felt a trace of loosening in the late-stage Foundation Establishment bottleneck of the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" in his body.

Seeing this, Song Song Qingming's face was happy, and he hurriedly took out a third-tier spiritual pill refined by Huang Huang Siyuan from his storage bag and threw it into his mouth. Soon, a burst of golden spiritual light radiated from his body.

After completely refining the pill in his body, Song Song Qingming began to maximize his own spiritual power to absorb the heaven and earth energy around him to impact the bottleneck of the cultivation technique that had already loosened in his body.

I don't know how long it had passed, Song Song Qingming suddenly felt a slight sound coming from his dantian, and the heaven and earth energy around him suddenly accelerated several times and rushed into his body crazily.

At this moment, Song Song Qingming, who was sitting in place, still closed his eyes and remained motionless, steadily operating his spiritual power to soothe the restless heaven and earth energy in his body.

This lasted for about half an incense stick of time, and the restless heaven and earth energy around Song Song Qingming finally slowly calmed down. Song Song Qingming then breathed a sigh of relief.

Before entering the secret realm, the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" that Song Song Qingming practiced had been stuck at the peak of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment for a long time.

Even if Song Song Qingming tried to take many pills to assist, the bottleneck of the cultivation technique in his body still couldn't loosen a bit, which made Song Song Qingming feel quite helpless about this, and he could only practice diligently and wait for the opportunity to rush through this bottleneck.

I didn't expect that after entering the "Wind-Thunder Island" secret realm this time, he would accidentally find a treasure land with very abundant heaven and earth energy, allowing his "Tongtian Wanling Jue" cultivation technique, which had been stagnant for many years, to successfully break through and advance to the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

This unexpected harvest also made a hint of joy appear in Song Song Qingming's heart. Regardless of what happened next, he had finally not wasted his spirit stones for this trip.

It was just a pity that the opening time of this secret realm was only one month, and Song Song Qingming had no way to stay in the secret realm for a long time.

Otherwise, if he could stay in it for a long time, he would certainly be able to successfully practice the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" to the peak of the late stage of Foundation Establishment, or even break through to the Core Formation stage.

Just when Song Song Qingming was concentrating on meditating in the cave, a group of uninvited guests suddenly appeared above the valley where he was in seclusion outside.

Among this group of people, the one running in front was a yellow-robed old man with a thin face. Hundreds of zhang behind him, there were four cultivators, three men and one woman, holding magic tools, chasing the yellow-robed old man in front on flying swords.

After the yellow-robed old man fled to the valley where Song Song Qingming was, he suddenly turned the flying sword under his feet and fell directly down, arriving in front of a cliff covered by dense grass and trees.

After fleeing here, the yellow-robed old man scanned the cliff in front of him carefully and walked forward a few steps, just about to get closer, when a few sarcastic voices suddenly came from behind him.

"Old thing, you can really run. I thought you really dared to hide in the inner hall. Why don't you run anymore? Is it because your spiritual power is not enough to run?"

"Haha! Senior Brother Wu, why bother talking nonsense with this old thing? Daring to snatch things from our Golden Blade Sect, wait and see how I will kill you later."

Faced with the ridicule of the few people behind him, the yellow-robed old man did not pay much attention. After walking quickly to the cliff position, he directly cast a spell to release a fireball and smashed it at the cliff in front.

"Is this guy crazy? He even wastes his spiritual power like this?"

The four people from the "Golden Blade Sect" who had just surrounded him saw the yellow-robed old man's somewhat abnormal behavior, and a hint of doubt appeared on their faces. They didn't know what the other party was trying to do.

However, the next moment they saw the fireball disappear into the cliff in front of them without a trace. Feeling that something was wrong, the few people were surprised and stopped their steps.

And the yellow-robed old man who had just cast the spell to release the fireball, seeing that his guess had been verified, hurriedly knelt on the ground and was just about to call for help, but was interrupted by a reprimand from behind.

"Which blind person is hiding here sneakily? Get out by yourself, otherwise, if Grandpa is unhappy later, I will chop you into pieces and feed you to the demon beasts!"

The speaker was one of the four from the "Golden Blade Sect" who were chasing the yellow-robed old man, a fat-faced cultivator holding a pair of knives with a somewhat fierce face.

At this moment, while shouting, he looked at the cliff in front of him indifferently, seemingly not paying much attention to the person hiding inside, thinking it was just the yellow-robed old man's accomplice.

As the fat-faced cultivator's voice fell, a burst of white mist suddenly appeared outside the cliff, and then a young man with an ordinary appearance appeared in front of everyone.

"How can this be a Core Formation cultivator!"

Seeing Song Song Qingming's figure appear and feeling the powerful pressure emanating from his body, the faces of the four from the "Golden Blade Sect" changed instantly, revealing a hint of ugliness.

Only the yellow-robed old man who was still kneeling on the ground saw Song Song Qingming and hurriedly bowed down, begging respectfully: "Senior, this junior was forced to flee here because I was being chased by these people for no reason. I hope Senior can show this junior a way to live. I am willing to give all the spiritual items I obtained in the secret realm to Senior."

However, although the yellow-robed old man was crying and saying it sincerely, Song Song Qingming did not pay attention to him but directly fixed his gaze on the fat-faced cultivator from the "Golden Blade Sect" who had just spoken.

"Was it you who just wanted to chop me into pieces and feed me to the demon beasts?"

Hearing Song Song Qingming's cold inquiry, the fat-faced cultivator's face was embarrassed for a while, and he hurriedly cupped his hands to explain: "Junior didn't know Senior was here just now, so I was talking nonsense. I hope Senior doesn't blame me."

"Yes! Just now, Junior Brother Hu was just talking nonsense. I hope Senior doesn't misunderstand. We are disciples of the Golden Blade Sect of Zhang Baishan Kingdom. I hope Senior can look at the face of my master, True Person Yufeng, and spare Junior Brother Hu."

His master was also a famous old-school Core Formation cultivator. No matter if Song Song Qingming knew him or not, fellow Core Formation cultivators should at least show some respect and not make things difficult for them easily.

However, after the young scholar finished speaking, Song Song Qingming's face did not show the change they wanted to see, and that somewhat cold gaze was still fixed on the fat-faced cultivator not far away.

"Since you were talking nonsense, why don't I give you a chance? As long as you can support ten rounds without being defeated by this spiritual pet of mine, then I won't care about this matter."

After Song Song Qingming finished speaking, he patted his waist lightly with his right hand, and the "Ice-Fire Python," which was still emitting a trace of cold air, was released by him.

After years of careful feeding, the "Ice-Fire Python" that had followed Song Song Qingming for many years had also successfully practiced to the peak of Foundation Establishment, and it was only one step away from the Core Formation stage.

And the fat-faced cultivator in front of him only had a cultivation base at the fifth layer of Foundation Establishment. Looking at the fierce "Ice-Fire Python" in front of him, he really didn't have the courage to fight it, so he knelt down with a "plop" in front of Song Song Qingming with a look of regret. ===== CHAPTER 772 =====

After so many years of careful feeding, the cultivation base of the "Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" that had followed Song Song Qingming for many years had successfully reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, only a step away from the Core Formation realm.

The fat-faced cultivator before him, however, had a cultivation base of only the fifth layer of Foundation Establishment. Looking at the fierce and imposing "Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" before him, he truly lacked the courage to fight it and could only kneel down with a "thump" toward Song Song Qingming's location, his face full of regret.
