There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality
Chapter 824: Underground of the 3 River Mansion
Six hundred miles southwest of Zhonghui City, above the crimson earth scorched by flames, a ray of life and death light connected heaven and earth, stirring up the power of the earth, causing the earth, which was already fragile due to the scorching heat, to continue to crack.
However, in the blink of an eye, dense cracks appeared on the ground, and a strong breath of earth veins permeated from the cracks, followed by a dark breath of death.
Looking down from the cracked fissures, one can discover that beneath the earth is an underground fortress with connections in all directions, but at this moment, each room in the fortress is filled with chaotic earth veins and spirituality.
If you look more closely, you will find that many Qigong practitioners in those rooms have melted due to the high temperature, but the spiritual veins in their flesh and blood are still alive, constantly beating in their flesh and blood, emitting a strong chaotic spirituality. Some of the monks who entered the room even had their flesh and blood and spiritual veins transformed into a huge twisted creature.
These twisted creatures exude black death energy all over their bodies. Their bodies are similar to those of a spirit turtle, but they are extremely agile and can mobilize the power of the earth veins. The cracks in the earth are caused by their reckless use of the power of the earth veins. Wen Hai has no choice but to use the "Life and Death Light Curtain" to suppress them.
However, these twisted creatures seem to be completely immune to the 'Life and Death Light Curtain' because they have been connected to the power of the earth's veins, and the 'Life and Death Light Curtain' also relies on the power of the earth, so the 'Life and Death Light Curtain' not only does not pose a threat to them, but is their nourishment.
The 'light curtain of life and death' only appeared for a moment and then disappeared in an instant.
When Wen Hai and his two disciples escaped from underground and flew into the sky, all kinds of chaotic spirits emerged from all directions. They were basically the monks who had hidden themselves to avoid the first wave of high temperature. However, they underestimated the power of the subsequent flames and were eventually ignited by the ubiquitous fire spirit energy when the fire burned, causing the spiritual veins in their bodies to mutate.
After the flames were cleared, the fear in their consciousness dissipated, and what followed was madness. So they drilled out of the ground, instinctively wanting to pollute this world.
But this area already has an owner. Just as Liu Shuang was about to check the situation, all the distorted objects in the southern region shattered at the same time. Their consciousness was directly cut off by a powerful force.
The only one who could do all this in the southern cultivation world was Wang Ping. After he had done all this, he sent a message to Liu Shuang, asking her to speed up the search for survivors in the southern cultivation world and clean up any distortions that might have been missed in the corners.
He landed in the pavilion next to Mingyuetan in Sanhe Prefecture. The pavilion seemed a little desolate because no one came here after Xin Shi left.
"I gonna go see!"
The rain lotus rose into the clouds, then transformed into its huge original form and plunged into Mingyue Lake.
After Wang Ping looked around, he took out a handful of cultivated seeds from his storage bag and scattered them into the sky. These seeds flew towards the burned and barren land around Mingyuetan along with the wood spirit energy.
A moment later, after the seeds fell to the ground, Wang Ping activated the wood spirit in his body and constructed a huge wood spirit formation centered under his feet. When the abundant wood spirit energy became visible to the naked eye, dense forests and bushes emerged from the desolate land, surrounding Mingyuetan.
"Yulian!"
Wang Ping called out towards Mingyuetan.
Afterwards, more than ten spirit snakes emerged from Mingyuetan Lake and cast water spirit spells on the newly formed forest. When the rich water spirit energy was formed, heavy rain suddenly poured down.
At this time, two figures flew over from the direction of the Sanhe Temple ruins. They were Lin Chen and Huimin. They were extremely weak at the moment. Fortunately, their spiritual consciousness was strong enough, otherwise the spiritual veins in their bodies would have rebelled long ago.
Wang Ping stretched out his left hand and cast a blessing talisman with the "Qingmu Technique" for each of them, then called Yu Lian to transform into a stream of light and leave Mingyuetan, appearing above the ruins of Sanhe Temple.
To call it a ruin is an exaggeration. After the fire, there was nothing left here but a bare mountain. The rocks on the mountain were still weathered, giving people the feeling that it would fall down if pushed.
When Wang Ping landed on the ground, the rain from Mingyuetan Lake spread here. He scattered some spiritual grass seeds, and the bare mountains were immediately dyed with a layer of green.
"I remember this is a fighting arena. You fought with someone here before."
"Didn't you just mention his name?"
A few memories emerged in Wang Ping's mind. The place where he was standing at the moment was a flat ground. Originally, this should have been a large platform, but the white jade stone of the platform had been shattered, leaving only soft soil.
When Yu Lian heard Wang Ping's reminder, she immediately said, "Yes, it was Wen Hai and Hong Yuan. Why didn't we hear any news about him later? Oh, he was possessed by his martial arts and was probably dealt with by Zi Luan."
Wang Ping did not stay on this flat ground for long. He followed his memory and came to the entrance of a cave. This was the cave where they had gathered. It was intact. The rooftop outside the cave still retained its original appearance, and there was no sign of the rock wall being burned by the fire.
"There is indeed a problem!"
Yulian speaks human words.
Wang Ping stretched out his left hand and made a hand gesture to open the "Heavenly Eye" between his eyebrows, but what he saw was chaos. By the time the past scenes appeared, the cave had already taken shape.
Someone disrupted its formation process!
Wang Ping had no choice but to close his 'eyes' and heard Yu Lian ask: "How is it? What did you find?"
Wang Ping told the truth.
Yu Lian was not too surprised. "If this place is really left by Grandmaster Yu Xiao, then this makes sense, doesn't it?"
Wang Ping nodded and Tengyun entered the cave. It was still the same as before, with dry ground and rock walls, and caves leading to this place in all directions on the surrounding rock walls.
Apart from this there is nothing special to note.
After observing for a while, Wang Ping used his spiritual consciousness to try to observe what secrets were underground, but just like before, his spiritual consciousness could not penetrate the rock wall.
Then, Wang Ping sacrificed the 'Heaven-Covering Talisman', because True Lord Lieyang and True Lord Xiaoshan, who asked him to come here, both mentioned what would happen after the 'Heaven-Covering Talisman' was completed.
But there was still no change around him, and then Wang Ping sacrificed the 'Tiantong Talisman', 'Jieyun Talisman' and 'Tongling Talisman'. When the four talismans surrounded him, a mysterious light formed around his soul.
These four talismans have now merged with Wang Ping's soul. The power they bring together can even allow Wang Ping to glimpse a bit of the rules of heaven and earth, but it is only a glimpse, he cannot use it.
At this moment, in Wang Ping's spiritual vision, dense wood spirit runes appeared on the surface of the surrounding rock walls. These runes did not seem to be carved, but seemed to have life.
This shocked Wang Ping greatly.
"what happened?"
Yulian asked.
Wang Ping naturally would not hide it from Yu Lian.
After hearing this, Yu Lian said, "That must be an adult Five Elements spiritual creature, and judging by the situation here, it must be an adult wood spirit!"
Wang Ping subconsciously said, "The body of a fourth-level Taiyan cultivator? Who could it be?"
"Grandmaster?" "Maybe, but..."
As Wang Ping was speaking, he sensed a faint wood spirit aura coming from a cave on the left. He immediately stopped talking, took off with Yu Lian, and disappeared into the cave with the wood spirit aura.
The underground cave was more complicated than Wang Ping had imagined. After more than ten breaths, when he entered a forked cave, he found that the entrance of the cave behind him closed by itself.
Wang Ping did not have time to observe. He needed to focus all his attention on the faint breath of wood spirit. If he was distracted, he might lose its trace.
"We keep sinking!"
Yu Lian, who was lying on Wang Ping's shoulder, reminded him in a low voice.
Wang Ping did not respond. He stretched out his left hand to maintain a defensive barrier of "Armor Talisman" around his body, and continued to follow the faint breath of the wood spirit into one cave after another.
It was unknown how long it had passed, but the cave was filled with salty sea water. Then Yu Lian communicated with Wang Ping in the spiritual sea and moved forward in the water on behalf of Wang Ping.
Half an hour passed like this, and the water pressure around Wang Ping suddenly disappeared. He appeared in a dark cave, which seemed to be the cave where he placed the communication device.
Half an hour's flight was enough for Wang Ping and Yu Lian to fly a long distance, because they could cover three thousand miles in one breath, so at this moment they were already far away from Sanhe Temple and should be in some area of the East China Sea.
The wood spirit aura here has stabilized. When Wang Ping's spiritual consciousness spread, Yu Lian cooperated and used a "lighting technique". The soft light spread quickly, and the darkness disappeared in the light in an instant.

Wang Ping's soul was blocked back as before, and he saw a clean wall with a bronze luster, and the surface of the wall was carved with dense runes.
Moreover, these runes were actually runes of the transfer array, but there was no energy fluctuation at all.
On both sides of the wall are dense tree-like roots, which are intertwined with each other. Some are thick and look as big as three people's arms in diameter, while others are very thin, only as thick as a hemp rope.
The breath of the wood spirit is emitted by these roots. It spreads to the sea water behind Wang Ping and appears in Sanhe Temple through a complex underground passage.
“Is this the root of a locust tree?”
Yu Lian's golden vertical pupils emitted an enchanting halo under the illumination of the "illumination technique", and she couldn't help but wrap her arms around Wang Ping's wrist while speaking.
Wang Ping jumped out of the water and landed on the platform in front of the wall. When he felt something under his feet, he lowered his head and looked at the floor. Only then did he realize that there were dense marks on the floor, as if they had been cut by swords and knives.
"Has anyone been here beforehand?" Yu Lian's voice suddenly rang out, accompanied by echoes. Perhaps the atmosphere at the moment was so weird that she even scared herself.
"Indeed it is!"
A sudden voice sounded.
This time Yu Lian was really scared, and she hid in her sleeves as quickly as possible.
Wang Ping turned his head and the first thing he saw was a pure white halo with a figure emerging from it.
It’s Guanxi!
Wang Ping was not surprised, because he knew it was Guan Xi from the voice that just spoke, but he was also very surprised. What surprised him was naturally the incident itself.
"It turns out to be fellow Taoist."
Wang Ping bowed with a smile on his face, but he was on guard in his heart.
Yu Lian sensed that it was Guan Xi, and first poked her head out, then transformed into a being about two meters tall, floating around Wang Ping, staring at Guan Xi with a fierce look in her eyes.
"Isn't it normal for me to be here? Why do you feel surprised, fellow Daoist?" Guan Xi said to Wang Ping with a smile.
"It makes sense." Wang Ping nodded and pointed at the marks on the ground and asked, "What's going on here?"
Guan Xi took two steps towards Wang Ping and then raised his head. The dome in his sight was full of various marks of chopping, but they were just marks. The dome was not damaged at all. The dome here was not filled with stalactites like those caves outside, but a smooth black mirror, which was obviously man-made.
Around those smooth domes are dense locust tree roots, which sink into the ground and sea along the rock walls, emitting a clear wood spirit scent.
"Fellow Daoist, have you forgotten the disaster that Qianmu Temple once encountered? Aren't you curious as to why they planned to kill several third-level cultivators from Qianmu Temple but didn't take the next step?"
Guan Xi said calmly, "Back then, they dug deep into the ground at Sanhe Temple and spent countless efforts to find this place, but they returned empty-handed. These traces were left behind when they were venting their frustration."
Wang Ping was silent for a few moments, then asked, "Who are they?"
Guan Xi looked at Wang Ping and replied, "Some members of the Star God Alliance, plus the schemes of some people from the Six Heart Sect. The South Sea Taoist is just a pawn of theirs. They each take what they need. In fact, the people from the Star God Alliance are the ones who really took action."
"Star God Alliance? Why?" Wang Ping asked again.
"Some people believe that Senior Yuxiao did not die, and that he must have discovered something in the Misty Sea and brought it back to Qianmu Temple. He took advantage of the unstable situation to design Qianmu Temple. Most of these people died later, and the rest were sent to outer space." Guan Xi answered seriously.
"What did they find?"
"They got nothing, so they are so angry. This place is protected by a magic array blessed by a wood spirit with a higher cultivation level than them. Unless a True Lord continues to destroy it, no one can open it. And the True Lords may not be interested in this. Of course, it is more likely that they are restraining each other and no one can move."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ping stretched out his right hand, and a "Seven Star Sword" appeared in his hand, and then he stabbed the ground with all his strength.
"when"
With a slight sound, a spark flashed across the ground, also leaving only an imperceptible trace.
Wang Ping raised his eyebrows and said, "So, did we come here for nothing?"
He looked at the bronze wall in front of him that was carved with dense runes. He never thought that he was special. Since so many people in the Star God Alliance had failed to do it, he would definitely not be able to break the restrictions here.
"Senior Yuxiao said that it is opened for specific people, perhaps the heir of Qianmu Temple, or perhaps other Taiyan cultivators. You can go forward and try." Guan Xi said with a smile: "Senior Yuxiao sometimes does things casually, but he will definitely be very rigorous in key matters."
Wang Ping did not move when he heard this. He looked at Guan Xi and asked, "Can I trust you?" (End of this chapter)
