Cultivation begins with the Shen family

Chapter 44: In Danger
In the dark underground cave, Shen Zhirui looked at the stone box that had just been dug out from the ruins in front of him, and there was faint excitement in his eyes.

This stone box looks very old, and there are many exquisite patterns engraved on the outside of the box, giving people an extremely precious look.

However, there was no fluctuation of spiritual power in the whole box, as if it had already been reduced to a mortal thing.

Shen Zhirui tried to open the stone box, but he opened it easily.

Accompanied by a burst of dust that had been dusty for a long time, the contents of the box were also revealed in front of him.

I saw that in this small box, several ancient books made of unknown animal skins were neatly placed, besides there were several jade bottles containing pills, and the rest were piles of ancient books that had been turned into stones. An unknown item of powder.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Shen Zhirui showed disappointment again, and immediately picked up a jade bottle to check.

Sure enough, when the jade bottle was opened, what was poured out was not a pill at all, but a ball of black powder.

Obviously, without the nourishment and protection of spiritual energy, the pills in these pill bottles have been completely reduced to ashes.

He put down the jade bottle in his hand, picked up an ancient book casually, and began to check the contents inside.

As the contents recorded in these ancient books came into his eyes, his mood also began to undergo ups and downs, first doubts, then sudden feelings, and finally turned into surprises.

From these ancient books, Shen Zhirui finally learned something about this secret store and the Foundation Establishment family back then.

It turned out that the family thousands of years ago was the Cui family. Back then, there were several Dzogchen monks and more than a dozen foundation monks in the family.

This secret treasure is a hidden game left by the Cui family when it was at its peak. Its purpose is to give the family a chance to make a comeback even if it declines in the future.

As for this kind of practice, it is not uncommon among those sects and families that have been passed down for a long time.

After all, it is impossible for a sect or a family to prosper forever, and there will definitely be declines during the period, which may be due to the failure of high-level monks, or the revenge of enemies.

Therefore, many sects and families with a long history will secretly start to build secret strongholds one after another when they are at their peak. These secret strongholds will contain many cultivation materials and various inheritances.

When their sect or family declines, the remaining sects and clansmen can make a comeback with the resources in these strongholds and continue the sect or family inheritance.

Originally, there were many resources hidden in this secret store, but they had been completely destroyed by the sandworms gathered here.

However, although the resources in this secret store were destroyed, some of the inheritance of the Cui family remained.

Among the ancient books in this stone box, there is a set of fire-attribute exercises called "Golden Crow Chasing the Sun Jue" and a set of second-level top-grade alchemy inheritance.

The "Golden Crow Chasing the Sun Jue" includes Qi training chapter and foundation building chapter, which can be cultivated to the state of foundation building Dzogchen.

And that set of alchemy inheritance is a complete alchemy system, which not only contains various alchemy recipes, but also many alchemy experience and experience left by alchemists.

A set of exercises that can be cultivated to the great perfection of foundation building and a set of second-level alchemy inheritance are invaluable treasures for any Qi training family or even a foundation building family.

After all, in this world of cultivating immortals, skills and inheritance are often the key to determining the rise and fall of a power.

In order to prevent the rise of new forces, the old forces have almost monopolized the inheritance of exercises from top to bottom, so that the new forces cannot reach their heights, and in the end they have to be oppressed and enslaved by them.

After a short period of joy, Shen Zhirui put all the pile of ancient books into the storage bag on his waist, and turned his gaze to the pile of dark powder, as if he was attracted by something.

Then he took out a very ordinary-looking bronze shard from the pile of powder.

This piece of bronze was dull and without any fluctuations in spiritual power, but it gave him a sense of simplicity.

The next moment, the bronze shard suddenly became brighter, and even emitted an extremely strong wave of spiritual power.

"not good!"

Seeing this, Shen Zhirui was shocked, and quickly put the bronze fragment into the storage bag on his waist.

However, it was too late, the sudden strong fluctuation of spiritual power had alarmed countless sandworms in the nest.

The entire lair shook violently, the surrounding ground and surrounding stone walls began to break, and countless rubble began to roll down.

Shen Zhirui didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly jumped towards the entrance of the hole he came from. He had already sensed a terrifying aura coming towards him, and the little gray pig in his arms even let out a shrill scream.

All of a sudden, the ground under his feet began to shatter and sink, and the surrounding gravel and sand poured down to the ground, as if there was a bloody mouth swallowing everything under the ground.

Seeing that the way of life was not far ahead, Shen Zhirui felt that his body was sucked by a terrifying suction force from the ground.

I saw that several thick vines shot out from his hands, and firmly plunged into a stone wall in front of him, preventing him from being quickly sucked into the ground by that suction.

However, the next moment, the stone wall also collapsed, and before he had time to react, he was sucked into the ground together with the surrounding gravel and sand.

Then his eyes suddenly went black and he lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Zhirui who was in a coma slowly woke up from the severe pain all over his body.

But when he opened his eyes, he found that his surroundings were pitch black, and the disgusting mucus was everywhere.

Moreover, the slime is extremely corrosive, and his body that touched the slime continuously felt a severe tingling sensation, as if his skin was being burned by fire, and countless insects and ants were eating his flesh and blood
Fortunately, his physical body is relatively strong among monks of the same level, so he can withstand the corrosion of these mucus.

At this moment, Shen Zhirui found that his body was surrounded by an emerald green spiritual power, which could effectively help him to isolate these mucus and delay the continuous corrosion of his body by these extremely corrosive mucus.

At the same time, this emerald green spiritual power is also quickly recovering the wounds on his body that were corroded by mucus.

He inspected his dantian, and sure enough, he found that the green seedling in his dantian was blooming, and the emerald green spiritual power flowing through his body came out of it.

If this green seedling hadn't protected him immediately and used its own spiritual power to help him resist the mucus and heal the wound, otherwise he might have been turned into blood by these extremely corrosive mucus before he woke up.

. . . . . .

　Up to now, the performance of the new book is very dismal, and I don’t even have a recommendation. I think that compared with the beginning of the old book, it is a lot less poisonous, so I want to hear your opinions.
