That night.
Inside the stone building of Qiyue Xuan.
Sister Lingyue, how did you see that this Xianhu Cave Heaven is the fragments of the ancient immortal and demon battlefields you mentioned?
Xu Taiping, who had held it in for a long time, finally couldn’t help but ask Fairy Lingyue.
”I was once fortunate enough to obtain several maps of the ancient immortal and demon battlefields. One of them is almost identical to this map in terms of terrain, especially that Jade Gourd Peak.”
”According to legend, that Jade Gourd Peak is an artifact of an ancient great cultivator who fell on the battlefield. The spiritual spring you mentioned is the transformation of the remaining spiritual power of that artifact.”
It is precisely because of this that I determined that this is the ruins of that ancient immortal and demon battlefield.
Fairy Lingyue introduced to Xu Taiping.
”What is the origin of this ancient immortal and demon battlefield?”
A damaged ancient artifact still has residual spiritual power flowing out. How could he not be curious.
”If we really want to trace it back, that great battle may have been a million years ago. Legend has it that at that time, Jiuyuan was extremely prosperous, and even an existence like the Demon Lord could only be regarded as a small minion.”
”The human race cultivators spent hundreds of thousands of years to formulate a strategy to trap the several most powerful demons in a piece of heaven and earth. Then the nine most powerful human race cultivators at that time, at the cost of self-destruction, perished together with those several demons. In the end, that piece of heaven and earth was completely blasted apart.”
“The nine largest fragments were later collected by the Human Emperor Yan Di and refined into nine cave secret realms. Firstly, it was to commemorate those nine great cultivators, and secondly, it was to inspire the younger generation of human cultivators to practice.”
“For the demons, these nine fragments are their greatest shame.”
“So in several later immortal-demon wars, they tried every means to take away and destroy these nine fragments.”
“By the time it was passed down to my era, only two of the nine fragments were left, and the other seven, including this Immortal Gourd Cave Heaven, had all disappeared without a trace.”
Fairy Lingyue said with a look of disappointment on her face.
“This Immortal Gourd Cave Heaven actually has such a past.”
After listening to Fairy Lingyue’s narration, Xu Taiping’s heart was greatly shocked. He had never imagined that in the long river of time, the human cultivators had such a tragic past.”
He, who originally had not been very interested in the Immortal Gourd Secret Realm, suddenly became very interested.
He only felt that even if it was not to search for the treasures in the secret realm, just to pay homage to the heroic deeds of the ancient human cultivators was also worth his going there.”
“However, this map is somewhat different from what I remember, and this fragment actually has two layers, upper and lower, and what is marked on this map is only the upper layer, which is also the least important layer.”
The spirit body of Fairy Lingyue stared at the map and pondered.
“Could it be that this Jade Green Lay Buddhist deliberately concealed the fact that there is another layer below?”
Xu Taiping speculated.
“Impossible.”
Fairy Lingyue shook her head with a smile.
“Why is it impossible?”
Seeing Fairy Lingyue so certain, Xu Taiping became curious all of a sudden.
“If he really knew about and explored that layer, and has occupied this cave for so many years alone, his cultivation base would have already broken through to the state of enlightenment and gone to several other worlds.”
Fairy Lingyue said very affirmatively.
“Sister Lingyue, you mean that the treasures hidden in the lower layer of the Xianhu Secret Realm are enough to make a cultivator break through to the state of enlightenment?”
Xu Taiping was a little surprised.
“It’s not really any treasure. It’s just that there is a large lake in the lower layer formed by the blood of immortals and demons. If that lake hasn’t dried up, practicing in the lake can make your cultivation speed increase rapidly.”
Lingyue shook her head and said.
Xu Taiping suddenly understood upon hearing this.
“However, Taiping, even if you find the lower layer of the secret realm, don’t enter that blood pool. The magic lotus in your body likes this kind of thing the most.”
Fairy Lingyue immediately reminded Xu Taiping again.
“Understood.” Xu Taiping nodded upon hearing this.
“However, beside that Blood Pool, there grows a kind of spiritual grass called Jade Bone. It is said to be transformed from the marrow of the cultivators who died inside. It has a very good effect on restraining demonic energy. If you can bring some back, the only spiritual object you need to remove the demonic lotus is just a pot of spiritual marrow liquid.”
“And this spiritual marrow liquid originally requires a large amount of spirit stones to refine. But in the divine artifact that has turned into Jade Gourd Peak in the Immortal Gourd Cave Heaven, there should be more refined spiritual marrow liquid without accident.”
“So now it seems that you must go on this trip to the Immortal Gourd Cave Heaven three years later.”
The Spirit Moon Fairy said with a serious expression.
Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.
The demonic lotus in his body is undoubtedly his biggest hidden danger now. It would be best if it could be removed quickly.
Furthermore, I just took a look. If this list is recorded correctly, you should be able to collect all the medicinal materials needed to refine the Sui Fire Pill inside.”
The Spirit Moon Fairy said again.
The Sui Fire Pill is a kind of pill that Xu Taiping, as a mortal bone, must have when he wants to break through to the Tongxuan Realm.
“And the Grass Restoration Pill.”
Xu Taiping nodded and added a sentence.
He also just discovered that this list also several precious medicinal materials needed to refine the Grass Restoration Pill.
“Although your second senior brother and the others said that this Immortal Gourd Cave Heaven is not very dangerous, according to my understanding of this fragment of the Immortal and Demon Battlefield, there are several demonic beasts in both the upper and lower levels inside.
“You haven’t noticed it for so many years. I estimate that they should all be asleep.”
“But even so, you still have to make full preparations.”
Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping again.
“In the next three years, I will try my best to stay in seclusion and digest what I gained in the ruins of the Immortal Mansion in Yunmengze before.”
Xu Taiping nodded seriously.
Because he was dealing with the Saber Ghost before, whether it was the movement technique ‘Within a short distance ‘or the set of ‘Green Bull Great Sage Fist’, he only read them a few times and didn’t really start to practice them.
So in the next three years, he wanted to start practicing these skills wholeheartedly without distractions.
……
Time flies in the Immortal Mansion.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
The Moon Fishing Pool on the Seventh Peak.
Like every morning in the past three years, Xu Taiping, wearing the Mountain Suppressing Iron Hand Rings obtained from the Demon Cultivator on his hands and feet, jumped up from the foot of the mountain step by step.
Compared with three years ago, although he was carrying seven or eight thousand catties of Mountain Suppressing Iron, his steps were still extremely light.
At the same time, his figure was much taller and stronger than three years ago.
According to the usual practice.
When he came to the water pool, Xu Taiping first took down the wooden board from the cliff wall and took a look.
“Huh? There is not a single word today.”
To his surprise, Jushi Sansan did not leave any words on the wooden board today.
This was the first time since he started practicing swordsmanship.
“Maybe he forgot?”
Xu Taiping thought this way as he placed the blank wooden board aside.
“Zheng!”
He saw that he put his two fingers together and only slightly lifted them. The long sword inserted in the cliff wall then flew to his front like a stream of light.
This originally rusty long sword, because it accompanied Xu Taiping in continuous practice every day, had now become cold and sharp, and no longer had the damaged appearance of three years ago.
“The requirement of San San Ju Shi yesterday was five thousand characters with one sword strike. Then today I will try six thousand characters with one sword strike?”
Xu Taiping looked at the blank wooden board and then decided.
With this thought in mind, he took a deep breath and then raised his sword finger.
“Zheng! ——”
Accompanied by a harsh sword chirping sound, strands of sword light converged into a waterfall and washed down from the sky above the cliff wall.
In just an instant, the entire cliff wall was engraved with powerful seal script characters.
This was the result of Xu Taiping’s continuous practice for three years without a single day of interruption.
“Since San San Ju Shi has no other requirements, then we’ll see each other tomorrow?”
Xu Taiping looked at the long sword that flew back to his front.
The long sword then made a quivering sound as if somewhat reluctant.
If it were in the past, even after writing the characters, Xu Taiping would still stay for a while before going down the mountain. But today, he still has to prepare the things needed to go to Xianhu Cave tomorrow, so he has to go back earlier.
“Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”
And just as Xu Taiping inserted the long sword back into the cliff wall and turned to leave, a majestic and old voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately after, a figure descended from the sky and was like a sharp sword inserted on the big stone in the middle of the water pool.
“Sansan… Jushi?!”
Xu Taiping was stunned.
He has been practicing swordsmanship for more than three years. This is the first time Sansan Jushi has appeared in front of him.
