The cave is actually myself

Chapter 170 Changes
After everything was cleared up, the cave returned to its previous peaceful life.

The blood-devouring vine, ghost-faced spider, etc. all ate and drank enough, and the remaining ones were frozen by the snow wolf's icy breath, so that when food was not enough, the frozen flesh and blood essence could be used to satisfy their hunger.

Everyone was lying lazily, except for Luobao Xunjinlou, who was still diligently searching for broken magic weapons and talismans.

After the cave was promoted to the primary blessed land, the area covered by spiritual thoughts increased many times, extending to dozens of miles in radius.

Lu Yuan planned to make good use of these areas and scanned them with his spiritual mind. Since there were often team-building activities in the cave, he found that there were no powerful monsters or strange beasts in these areas, only a small number of inferior or first-class monsters.

For these monsters, Lu Yuan first showed affection to see if they obeyed the cave's requirements.

If you don't obey, then use reason, physical reason.

The second-grade silver-threaded mantis was dispatched, and with its wind-like speed and superb sword skills, the entire area was cleared in less than half a day.

For those who are more honest, Lu Yuan allows them to live on the fringes and monitor them from time to time. If there are any violations of the cave's rules, the food-crushing killer Silver Thread Mantis will instantly dispatch to solve the problem monsters.

In such a large area, the spiritual energy of the cave cannot cover everything. It extends from the stone cave as the center, and the density of the spiritual energy is divided into three levels.

The core area in the center has the highest density of spiritual energy, the richest and purest, followed by the peripheral parts of the cave when it is in the high-level spiritual realm, with a radius of about a thousand feet, and finally other large areas, where the density of spiritual energy is relatively the lowest.

The rich aura of the blessed land was particularly stimulating to all the creatures in the cave, especially the low-level spiritual beasts and spiritual plants, which were able to break through in a short period of time.

The blood-devouring vine successfully broke through to the second level, and then divided into several smaller black and red vines. It showed its teeth and claws, and was full of power. Those who were not familiar with the situation thought that this was the highest combat power of the cave.

Alien beasts like snow wolves, gray-winged birds, and colorful poisonous snakes have all evolved from inferior alien beasts into first-class monsters.

The size of the snow wolf increased by one-third, and its white wolf hairs were densely distributed on its body. It exuded an icy aura that made it unapproachable to strangers. When it breathed out, tiny ice particles fell down, which showed its talent in ice spells.

The gray-winged bird was a step faster. Lu Yuan estimated that although it had just been promoted to a first-level monster, at its current speed, it would not be a big problem to surpass most second-level and some third-level monsters.

At the same time, the gray-winged bird's claws became more black and textured, like a low-level magic weapon, very hard.

Although the other strange monsters have not broken through the level, they have benefited greatly from the nourishment of the blessed land's spiritual energy.

Lantern Village.

As soon as the sky turned white, Long Liu opened his eyes and habitually glanced at his sister Long Xue's gray lantern hanging on the wall.

After seeing that there was nothing unusual about the gray lantern, Long Liu couldn't help but laugh.

Strangely enough, since all the remaining villagers of Lantern Village moved here, similar incidents like the original lantern ghosts invading the villagers' bodies have never happened again.

If I had known, as a price for providing the gray lanterns to the villagers, many villagers would not die from the strange monsters in the wilderness every year, but would die in the gray lanterns made by themselves.

"Perhaps it's because the Lantern God is secretly protecting us here."

He guessed in his heart.

With a creaking sound, his sister Long Xue opened the door and came to him.

"Sister, what's the situation now? There won't be any danger in the secret realm and the senior paper man, right?"

Long Liu asked quickly. Since the entire Lantern Village was on the edge of the cave, Lu Yuan informed them in advance that a large number of foundation-building monks would come to explore the secret realm.

All the villagers immediately hid in the village. The village was protected and hidden by formations, which greatly reduced the possibility of being discovered in the Lantern Village.

"I've heard people say that some clan uncles saw a few Foundation Establishment cultivators flying away from the secret realm. It should be over. Judging by their distressed appearance, it is estimated that the damage to the Dongfu will not be great."

Knowing that her younger brother couldn't wait, Long Xue immediately informed the general situation of the cave in detail.

"It's fine." Hearing what his sister said, Long Liu felt relieved and smiled innocently.

In his heart, he was still thinking about the little gray-winged bird that brought him the spiritual grass and elixir, and worried about whether it could escape from the hands of so many foundation-building monks.

Other villagers, like Longliu, are worried about the secret realm and their own future.

Their current relationship with the secret realm is no small matter. They both prosper and suffer. It can be said that they are a community of destiny.

During the long and torturous wait, a voice sounded from their ears.

"The formation is lifted and you can come out." Lu Yuan said to the villagers of Lantern Village with his spiritual thoughts.

Everyone's faces showed joy, and they all lowered the boulders hanging on their hearts.

Long Liu stepped out of the room in two steps and came outside.

"Huh? Why does it feel like the spiritual energy in the village is obviously different?"

Long Liu felt the spiritual energy outside suddenly become rich and pure, and felt a little unbelievable in his heart.

"Such pure spiritual energy, is it the same in Cangxing City? Hehe, the bottleneck feels a little loose, and it is about to break through to the middle level of Qi training. When Big Brother Long Hong comes back, give him a big surprise."

Long Liu took a few deep breaths, feeling the thirst for pure spiritual energy in every tiny part of his body, and the dantian that had not changed for a long time after reaching the third level of Qi training, he had a vague understanding in his heart.

He immediately retreated into the room, sat down cross-legged, and searched for the spiritual energy circulating in his body.

At the same time, other villagers in Lantern Village also felt obvious changes in their aura.

"Have you noticed that the spiritual energy in the village has become much richer and purer at some point?"

"Yes, I feel the same way. With my poor cultivation talent, I can actually feel the aura around me now!"

"Look around quickly. Several spiritual grasses appeared in the village overnight."

"God bless my Lantern Village!"

Some villagers from Lantern Village knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of the secret realm, not caring even if there was a little blood on their foreheads.

For the villagers of Lantern Village who had been staying in the wilderness before, they couldn't ask for anything more than a safe and reliable place to stay, let alone rich and pure spiritual energy.

But now, it has been a long time since they moved outside the secret realm, and the lives of the villagers have changed completely from before.

There is no need to worry about being invaded by monsters at all times, or absorbing a large amount of polluted and turbid spiritual energy during cultivation. Every day is just about building a village, picking spiritual herbs and elixirs, and practicing to strengthen yourself. Everything seems ordinary and peaceful.

Now, that secret realm not only provides them with a safe and reliable living environment, but also improves the concentration and purity of spiritual energy in the village, making it much more likely that they can change their own destiny through practice.

Thinking of this, everyone worshiped with even more piety and fanaticism.
