Asura Continent

After returning to his residence, he ran into Dong Kai. He was slightly startled as he asked in confusion, "Junior Martial Brother Lu, why haven't you gone to sleep in the middle of the night?"

Lu Yang casually made up an excuse and said, "I'm going into the forest to have a look. I originally wanted to hunt a few wild rabbits and roast them for you to eat tomorrow."

Hearing the word 'hare', Dong Kai's interest was piqued. Even until now, he still remembered the taste of the hare he had eaten that night. He hurriedly asked, "Have you called yet?"

"No, the sky is too dark. I lost my true strength again, so I wasn't able to fight." At this point, Lu Yang also sighed to himself. Without real strength, it would be difficult for them to even survive in the wild in the future. His top priority right now was to cultivate his spiritual power as fast as possible. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the chance to escape if he ran into an evil person.

Dong Kai also sympathized with Lu Li and said, "Junior brother Lu, don't think too much. The loss of true energy is equivalent to the first step of cultivation. I believe that it won't be long before you reach the first stage of the Qi Cultivating Stage."

"I hope so!" Lu Yang and Dong Kai exchanged a few more words before returning to the room.

Closing the door, Lu Yang lay down. However, the little black panther was jumping around full of energy, as if it had an inexhaustible amount of strength on its entire body.

Lu Yang frowned as he recalled the appearance of the spring in his mind. What kind of spring water was in the spring originally? Why would the little black panther be so strong after drinking it? Could that be the legendary elixir? Lu Yang boldly thought of this and was extremely excited in his heart. If it really was the spirit liquid, would it be difficult to reach Qi Disciple level 1?

With these thoughts in his mind, Lu Yang unknowingly fell into a deep sleep, only waking up early the next morning.

Before the sky brightened, Lu Yang put on his clothes and quickly ran into the forest. Very soon, he arrived at the cave he entered yesterday. The cave did not change at all from the day before. Lu Yang came to the fork in the road, and after pondering for a while, he still decided to walk towards another passage. There was a treasure in the previous cave, who could be sure that this path could not lead to another cave?

Lu Yang kept walking forward. This road was longer than he had expected. He had been walking for six hours, but he still hadn't found the exit. At the end, the cave became narrower and narrower. Lu Yang also did not know where this cave led to, but he was sure that the owner of this cave must have his reason for creating this passage.

Thus, they walked for another six hours before reaching the end of the cave. In front of them was another stretch of vine, and its size and type were similar to the vines they had seen earlier. Lu Yang was sure that these vines weren't natural growth, but the cave's owner did it on purpose to prevent people from discovering this cave.

Lu Yang cut off the vine and walked out of the cave. Just as he walked out of the cave, his eyes widened.

This was because they were halfway up the mountain and there was no road in the vicinity. From here, they could see a village from the bottom of the mountain, and they could vaguely see a lot of people walking around the village. Lu Yang estimated that this place was only about five kilometers away from the village. If he were to use his Qing Gong from here, it would take at most an incense stick to reach the village.

Lu Yang was smart to begin with. In the blink of an eye, he knew the purpose of the owner of the cave. He had built this cave to escape. But thinking about it in the blink of an eye, Lu Yang felt that something was wrong. There was a powerful formation laid around the Six Corporeal Sects so it was impossible for them to leave. Building the passageway was also useless. The next moment, Lu Yang knew he was wrong. After walking for six hours, according to the situation at the Six Paths Sect, he had already left the area covered by the formation.

Lu Yang's heart tightened. Could it be that the master of the cave had opened up this cave in order to avoid the array, or used a special method to make the array useless? In any case, this was a good thing for Lu Yang. If the Nine Mystical Sect wanted to harm the Six Paths Sect, they could escape through this passage in the future.

However, right now, Lu Yang was not ready to tell this secret to anyone. He covered up the vines at the entrance of the cave and quickly ran forward. This time, Lu Yang's speed was very fast. In less than eight hours, he arrived at the entrance of the cave. However, the sky had already darkened. Lu Yang knew he couldn't cultivate so he sighed and walked out of the cave.

Just as they walked into the woods outside the cave, they saw Zhou Kai and the others walking towards them from another direction. They were all startled when they saw Lu Yang.

Zhou Kai flashed to Lu Yang's side and asked, "Junior brother Lu, where did you go?"

"I …" Lu Yang answered, "I'm going to cultivate! Why are you two here? "

Zhou Kang let out a bitter laugh and said, "But the spiritual energy you cultivated in is very dense, so we ran off to cultivate. I didn't expect that you didn't go."

"So that's how it is!" Lu Yang hurriedly said, "The spiritual energy there is indeed very dense, but I think that if so many people cultivate together, no matter how dense the spiritual energy is, if we swallow it together, it will become thinner. "Therefore, I found a place that was like spiritual energy and didn't go there to cultivate."

"I was wondering why you didn't go. So you went somewhere else." Zhou Kai smiled and said, "Shall we go together tomorrow?"

Lu Yang wasn't willing to cultivate with him and said, "I'm used to cultivating by myself. Besides, that place is really ordinary. It can be seen everywhere in the Liu He Sect."

Hearing Lu Yang's words, Zhou Kai did not insist. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, we'll find our own practice areas in the future and give that place to Junior Brother Lu!"

Hong Tianyang waved his hand and said, "I don't cultivate anymore. This is simply a waste of time. I might as well look for a place to rest!"

The others nodded in agreement. Apparently, they had no interest in cultivating.

Dong Kai glared at the crowd and snappily said, "With your lazy personalities, don't even think about cultivating to an extremely high level for the rest of your lives."

Hong Tianyang wasn't angry. He laughed out loud and said, "Third senior brother, you've been here for more than ten years. You've been training hard every day, and yet you've only reached the 1st level of the Refinement Stage."

Dong Kai's face reddened as he coldly harrumphed, "At the very least, I'm already an immortal. You guys aren't even deities."

"We are not right now, but we will definitely be in the future." Hong Tianyang had his own plans as he slowly said, "Hard work training is also at the Qi Cultivation stage, if you don't work hard you can also break through to the Qi Cultivation stage one day. As long as you reach the Qi Cultivation stage, you can increase your lifespan. Why should we work hard training?"

One of the senior brother also nodded and said, "There is no point in wasting time on cultivation. If I can't break through to Foundation Establishment within the next 100 years, my lifespan won't increase. "With the same lifespan, it would be better to eat well and drink happily every day. Why waste time on cultivation?"

Dong Kai couldn't win against the crowd. He snappily said, "Everyone has their own aspirations. You can do whatever you want!" With that, he looked towards Lu Yang, "Junior brother Lu, let's go …"

After returning to his room, Lu Yang went to sleep early. Today was going to be a waste, so he decided that from tomorrow onwards, he would work hard to cultivate and strive to reach Qi Disciple level 1 as soon as possible. However, Lu Yang knew that it was difficult. With his talent, not to mention breaking through in a short period of time, being able to do so within a decade is already a miracle.

The next morning, Lu Yang woke up early and quickly went to the cave.

When he left that day, Lu Yang had intentionally closed the stone door of the secret chamber. When he came, he had noticed that the spiritual energy fluctuations in the cave passage had become much thinner. As he pushed open the stone door, he could feel a dense flow of spirit energy rush into his face. It was much denser than the day before yesterday. Lu Yang suddenly understood that if the stone door was closed, the spiritual energy here would not be able to spread to the outside world and the spiritual energy in the room would become denser and denser.

But, where did this spiritual energy come from, could it be …

Lu Yang thought of that spring and walked over after a few steps. After a closer look, he was surprised to find that the spiritual energy in this large dark room was the densest, as if the surrounding spiritual energy was all coming from here. However, why did this spring that didn't even have a drop of water emit such strong fluctuations of spirit energy?

When Lu Yang thought of the elixir that Qin Xiong spoke of, he felt extremely nervous. Could it be that this was a spring that could spew out elixir, but why hadn't it spew out the elixir? Lu Yang really wanted to know the reason behind this. He sat cross-legged next to the spring and began observing again. This time, Lu Yang observed the center of the spring. However, after looking for a long time, he still couldn't find any results.

"Strange, since the little black panther can drink water from here, why is it that the water here isn't evaporated?" Lu Yang frowned as he thought about it, but his eyes swept across the spring. With this sweep, he discovered that the spring was wet. This phenomenon didn't exist yesterday.

A flash of inspiration passed through Lu Yang's mind as he stood up in excitement, scaring the sleeping little black panther awake.

The little black panther was very dissatisfied. It glared at Lu Yang, then closed its eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

How could Lu Yang not be excited? He discovered the secret of the spring. It wasn't that the spring water didn't shoot out any spring water, but that the amount of spring water that came out was too little, so much of it evaporated into spiritual energy that only a small amount of it turned into liquid and remained in the spring. The reason why there was no water right now was because the storage was still insufficient. As long as he kept it for a few more days, there would naturally be some liquid within.

An excited smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yang's mouth. He glanced at the little black panther that was not far away and said, "Little guy, don't drink any more of the spring water that you have stored up this time. It's extremely useful to me."

The little black panther acted as if it didn't hear him, and continued sleeping without even glancing at Lu Yang.

Lu Yang's brows twitched as he said, "If you want to drink anymore, I won't roast wild rabbits for you in the future."

Once he said that, the little black panther opened its eyes and glanced at Lu Yang. Seeing Lu Yang's solemn expression, it nodded. However, his eyes were full of depression when he looked at Lu Yang. If it could speak, it would definitely protest loudly, "Since when do you have the time to catch a hare when you're fully focused on cultivation? Even if I don't drink spring water, you can't roast a wild rabbit for me to eat. "

Lu Yang ignored the little black panther's expression and sat cross-legged beside the spring water, entering into cultivation.

A day passed, and Lu Yang still did not complete the Circulatory Cycle Revolution. No matter how many times he absorbed and breathed in and out of the spiritual qi in his body, it disappeared like smoke in thin air. He did not even know where it went. Lu Yang sighed and did not give up on cultivating. He believed that if he continued cultivating like this, one day he would be able to complete the Circulatory Cycle Revolution and produce spirit energy.

Day after day, Lu Yang woke up before dawn, and only after the sky had completely darkened did he come back to rest.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed. Lu Yang arrived at the cave as usual. Just as he was about to sit down in the spring, he saw that there was an extra drop of milky white liquid in the spring. That liquid was unimaginably white, like fresh milk. Lu Yang hurriedly got closer and took a deep breath of the air. A dense amount of Spiritual Qi entered his body and he felt an indescribable feeling of comfort all over his body.

Lu Yang nervously clenched his hands. It was precisely after drinking this drop of spirit liquid that the little black panther became strong. What would happen after I take it? Thinking about this, Lu Yang couldn't wait any longer. He quickly took out a piece of rations from his Universe Ring, placed it in the spring, sucked up the white liquid, and swallowed it.
