Chapter 35 - Nine Transformations of the Absolute Killing Array
"No, the road is just ahead of us." Wang Jin walked over, reached out his hand to touch the darker parts of the stone wall, and discovered that his hand was stained with ice-cold water.
Soon after, Wang Jin's face lit up, he anxiously took out his blue jade sword and slashed at the cliff wall, after a while, he dug out a small hole, with the help of the flame palm's light, the two of them saw a clear underground spring flowing inside.
Cha cha-cha...
The blue jade sword dug out a hole in the wall for one person to pass through, then Wang Jin withdrew his blue jade sword and went through it with Zheng Xuezhao.
After entering, they immediately held the spring water in their hands and drank it to their heart's content. The spring water was sweet and delicious, extremely satisfying.
After Wang Jin finished drinking, he raised his head to take a look at the environment here. He realised that there was a cave inside the cave, the cave outside was so small, but the cave here was as wide as a hundred houses combined.
At the top of the cave hung terrifying stalagmites. Ice-cold water dripped off the stalagmites, and the dripping sounds were pleasant to the ears.
On the other side of the cave, on the huge rock wall, there was a sparkling and translucent fluorescent light flashing everywhere!
"What are those?" Wang Jin was very curious, so he ran over.
He studied the fluorescence and saw that it came from some strange stone. He tried to touch it, but it was cold and difficult to heat.
Wang Jin tried to circulate the Source Spirit's power, and carefully studied the stones. He discovered that they contained a huge amount of heaven and earth origin energy. However, this origin energy was mottled, mixed together. It should be able to be absorbed, but if it was directly absorbed, there was a 90% chance of causing damage to the meridians in the body, or even Qi deviation.
"What are these things? A treasure? " Wang Jin's eyes lit up.
"It is indeed a huge treasure trove, and this is a huge primeval vein." Zheng Xuezhao walked over and said in surprise.
"This is an ownerless primeval vein!" Wang Jin looked at the rock wall that was flickering with a silver light, his face was filled with excitement.
He channeled the Source Spirit's power into the stone wall and carried out a simple probing, but he found that he was unable to probe further.
Unable to estimate the approximate number, these primeval stone mines were innumerable, such as the number of sand mines in the Eternal River. If the primeval stone could be refined, then there would be no worries for cultivation from now on.
"Xiao Zhao, can you refine primeval stone?"
"I've learned all the relevant information, but I can't do it now. Because refining the primeval stone mine requires a furnace, and I also need to prepare the related materials. A beast core is essential." Zheng Xuezhao replied.
"You need beast cores too?"
"Yes, a beast core can increase the success rate of refining it and can also guarantee the purity of the primeval stone. If I have beast cores of the fifth stage or higher, I have a chance of refining Middle Grade Origin Stone. "
"Middle Grade Origin Stone? "Alright!" Wang Jin was extremely anticipating hearing this. One Middle Grade Origin Stone's price was equal to one hundred ordinary primeval stone, and its purity and capacity far exceeded that of ordinary primeval stone's. However, no one was willing to exchange one Middle Grade Origin Stone for one with one hundred ordinary primeval stone.
Most warriors would not use Middle Grade Origin Stone for cultivation, because that would be too wasteful, and would only be able to use Middle Grade Origin Stone in some important places, such as healing, breaking restrictions, refining or socketing weapons. If used properly, it could save one's life in dangerous situations.
"It seems like we can only wait until we return before we can refine the primeval stone." Wang Jin said somewhat disgruntled.
"It would be best if I could get a good furnace. I also want to improve my forging fire." Zheng Xuezhao laughed, after hearing Wang Jin's advice just now, she felt that it was necessary to pay attention to the forging fire's attribute.
"Xiao Zhao, we have to go through a life and death experience in order to find this place. It is a secret that we share, do not tell anyone else." Wang Jin said in a serious tone.
"Of course." Zheng Xuezhao was very happy to hear this, and she also blushed a little.
Wang Jin stared at the primeval vein, and shook his head: It is very difficult to bring back the primeval stone mine, the blue jade sword can cut these, but there are too many of them, how can we bring them back? Furthermore, we have to be on guard against others' eyes and ears. " Wang Jin could guarantee that once the sect knew of the existence of this primeval vein, this "gold mountain" would belong to them.
"..." Hearing that, Zheng Xuezhao's beautiful eyes flashed, as though she wanted to say something, but became silent.
With nothing else to do, the two sat down cross-legged and began cultivating. Without the primeval stone, their progress was slower.
After a while, Zheng Xuezhao could not help but ask: "Senior Brother, you said that you offended someone you should not have provoked. Who is he?"
"Luo Jiancheng." Wang Jin said indifferently.
"Huh?" Zheng Xuezhao was shocked. Luo Jiancheng was an influential figure in the Tongqing Sect, his fame spread far and wide, and he was even raised to be the successor. If Wang Jin had enmity with Luo Jiancheng, wouldn't that mean that he had enmity with most of the Disciples of the Tongqing Sect?
Wang Jin knew what Zheng Xuezhao was worried about, and laughed: "This is a personal grudge between Luo Jiancheng and I, he doesn't dare to spread it."
Just because Wang Jin spoke a few words with Situ Mingxiu in front of the Compendium Pavilion, Luo Jiancheng wanted to kill Wang Jin. This kind of reason was absolutely outrageous.
Luo Jiancheng did not dare to make this grievance public, and only dared to take action in private. The head disciple of the Tongqing Sect was someone who cared a lot about reputation. However, there were a lot of people following Luo Jiancheng in Tongqing Sect, and there were also a lot of people with a higher cultivation than him. Just settling the grudge privately, it made it hard for Wang Jin to defend himself.
Wang Jin naturally understood the situation, but he didn't want to say it out loud, afraid that Zheng Xuezhao would be worried.
"Senior Brother, there are so many people trying to kill you and there are so many people trying to find trouble with you in Tongqing Sect, are you still going to go back to Tongqing Sect?" Zheng Xuezhao secretly looked at Wang Jin's face.
"Answer, why not?" Wang Jin looked up for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "On the road of martial arts, there are difficulties and obstacles, I had already come to a realization a long time ago. To become an inner disciple, to learn profound martial skills, to enjoy superior cultivation resources, to become stronger, to control your own destiny, and to become a Sovereign is my dream! "
"Dreams?" Zheng Xuezhao muttered.
"A person without dreams is just a walking corpse. I don't want to become that kind of person." Wang Jin said firmly.
"Undead meat …" Zheng Xuezhao bit her lips. Clearly, she also had her own story, but only she herself knew the secret. "But senior brother, we can't beat them. Once we go back and train our restrictions, our lives will be in danger."
"There's only half a month left before the end of the inner disciple selection test. In a situation where there's a lack of primeval stone, this little bit of time spent on cultivation won't produce much of an effect. I must think of a way to quickly increase my strength in a short period of time." Wang Jin buried his head and thought hard.
After a while, he took out the Record of Inhibition Formations from his bosom and placed it on the ground to carefully study it.
Zheng Xuezhao curiously went over and watched it with Wang Jin.
The girl's body was very close to Wang Jin and her soft hair was resting on his face and neck from time to time. Wang Jin felt itchy and he felt that it was a strange feeling.
The two of them had just experienced life and death, and their body temperature had not yet completely dropped. As they were too close to each other, they both felt that their bodies were burning hot.
Zheng Xuezhao couldn't help but reach out to loosen her collar.
Wang Jin took a deep breath, wanting to calm down. Unexpectedly, he inhaled a breath of the warm fragrance, and the fragrance became overwhelming!
"Cough, cough." Wang Jin grabbed onto the recording array, turned, and continued his research.
Zheng Xuezhao was startled for a moment, but then she realized the reason. She immediately blushed like a burning charcoal, and sat behind Wang Jin, not daring to move anymore.
Time flew, and the sun rose and set. A day quickly passed, but the mountain cave was always pitch-black, so Wang Jin's fiery palms would occasionally bring light for a while.
During this time, each of them had taken a Fasting Pill. It was not a problem to eat until they were full. When they were thirsty, they would drink the sweet underground spring water from the cave.
After Zheng Xuezhao finished her meditation, she could not help but ask: "Senior Brother, is there an idea?"
"Most of the restrictions in the restriction records, if I can fully understand them, it can indeed increase my strength. However, in the experience of the restrictions, there are hundreds of enemies that want to take my head. They are not enough to deal with them." Wang Jin sighed.
He continued, "There are some powerful restrictions, but the materials required are too complicated to collect in a short period of time."
"Senior brother, do you have any powerful restrictions that do not require complicated materials?" Zheng Xuezhao asked.
"I do, but it will take me a long time to learn. There is a kind of seal in the Record of Inhibition Formations called the Death Kill Despair Formation. It's name is domineering and its power is great, but it requires at least 30 years of comprehension."
"Thirty years? Oh my god... Is there a powerful restriction that doesn't have complicated materials and only has a short period of time to study? " Zheng Xuezhao asked again.
"There is one that can allow me to comprehend it within a short period of time. However, there is a limit; it can only be used on those with a lower cultivation than me." As he said till here, Wang Jin's brows flashed. In fact, he still had something he wanted to say.
This restriction was simply meant for him!
Although Wang Jin was only at the middle stage of the fourth stage of the Source Spirit Realm, he had the power of six Source Spirit s and the Heavenly Wolf Source Spirit s were even more so special. In general, his Source Spirit power was already comparable to the flag of the sixth stage of the Source Spirit Realm, which meant that Wang Jin could use this restriction to deal with enemies below the sixth stage of the Source Spirit Realm.
Other than Zhang Ancheng, the rest of them would not be exempted from the restriction if they fell into it!
"Then hurry up and learn!" Zheng Xuezhao's eyes lit up.
"Although the materials are simple, but …" Wang Jin laughed bitterly, "Look for yourself."
With that, Wang Jin placed the recording of the restriction on the ground in front of Zheng Xuezhao.
Zheng Xuezhao curiously moved closer, then suddenly thought of something and retreated a little with a blush.
"Absolute Killing Nine Transformation Formation?" Zheng Xuezhao let out a light cry, and studied the array for a while longer before saying in shock, "I need five thousand primeval stone to set up the array, and they are all expendable, so how many primeval stone would I need to use? The next time I want to set up the array, I need to replenish them. This formation also requires a beast core. "
"Yes, the conditions for the Absolute Killing Nine Transformations Array are very harsh, but it can be comprehended in a short period of time. Only when we return can we refine these primeval stone mines and set up the array." Wang Jin sighed as he looked at the glowing primeval vein.
There were only fourteen days left until the end of the exam. The spoils of war they had gotten a few days ago had already been lost when they fell off the cliff. If they wanted to pass the inner disciple selection, they had to return to the experiential learning to collect enough tags.
But after training the restrictions, what awaited Li Yi were the hundreds of enemies that wanted his head!
"Senior apprentice-brother …" Zheng Xuezhao wanted to say something but hesitated.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep it in your heart. If you have any problems, I'll definitely help you." Wang Jin comforted her.
