Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 286
An hour later.

On the side of this fiery red crystal vein of spirit stone, Chu Mu stopped.

The sparkling and fiery red in front of my eyes is not much different from other places.

But in the consciousness perception, the sparkling and fiery red in front of him is a little inconsistent with this semi-natural formation.

Will there be inconsistencies in a large formation that is naturally formed?
Chu Mu stroked his chin, slightly pensive.

Fire attribute spiritual veins, fire attribute spiritual mines, and it is still in a place where the veins of the sea of ​​fire and magma are raging with fire.

Everything is inseparable from fire.

This is equivalent to artificially constructing a special fire attribute environment, and then using this special fire attribute environment to achieve some unknown purpose.

This is undoubtedly easy to understand. In the world of cultivating immortals, there are too many spiritual creatures, all produced by various chances and coincidences.

For example, the spirit planter and the spirit mine master, these two skills appeared for the purpose of studying this kind of coincidence.

They also use various methods to simulate an environment suitable for spiritual transformation or growth.

Summarize the law, experiment the law, and gradually, these two systems will be formed.

Of course, such spiritual creatures that require a special environment and coincidence to be born are often extremely rare.

And this big hand in front of me...

Chu Mu hesitated a little, and then, he raised his hand to make a tactic, and threw out one after another, landing on the fiery red crystal in front of him.

Formation prohibition and formation prohibition merged together, and with the passage of time, the fiery red crystal in front of me slowly melted.

About half an hour later, in front of the naturally formed spirit stone veins, a deep hole that was as tall as a person and as wide as a meter appeared.

Fiery red and crystal clear from the inside to the outside, a fiery red tunnel submerged in the Lingshi vein has already taken shape.

With one wave of Chu Mu's hand, a dragonfly spirit weapon sank into the mine pit. Soon, the dragonfly spirit weapon flew back, and a scene appeared.

After a while, he rolled up his sleeves, put away the Dragonfly Spirit Artifact, stepped forward, and stepped into the fiery red and crystal clear passage.

Judging from the footage that was detected just now, the passage is extremely long, and it seems to extend to the center of this fire-attribute spirit stone vein.

The channel is located in the veins of spirit stones, and the fire attribute aura is almost liquefied. The investigation of the spirit consciousness is undoubtedly compressed to the extreme, and it can only cover a distance of several meters around the body.

Chu Mu moved forward cautiously, his body was tense, and he was extremely vigilant.

Fortunately, this passage did not seem to be in any danger. Although he was vigilant, he reached the end of the passage very smoothly.

A gray-white stone gate inlaid in the vein of mine also came into Chu Mu's eyes.

He stood in front of the door, and in the perception of his spiritual sense, there was no restriction on the stone door, and it seemed that it was only the function of a door.

But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little drumming in his heart, the artificial traces were very clear.

Such a generous effort is obviously impossible for a foundation-building cultivator to achieve.

It must be the Jindan real person on the foundation, or even the legendary Nascent Soul monster.

To exist like that, the means are beyond his imagination.

Although it seems that tens of thousands of years have passed, the ghost knows if there is anything left behind.

Feeling beating in his heart, Chu Mu struggled for a while before finally making up his mind. He stretched out his hand to touch the stone door, his strength surged, and in the next second, the stone door, which had been closed for an unknown number of years, slowly pushed open.

What caught the eye was still a piece of crystal clear fiery red.

Among the sparkling and fiery red is a similar to a natural cave, the cave is not big, with a radius of only a few feet.

The cave scene is also extremely simple.

A fiery red high platform similar to a sacrifice is located in the center of the cave. On the high platform, there seems to be raging flames surging.

Other than that, there is nothing else in the cave.

Chu Mu frowned. He tested it with a puppet, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he walked into the cave.

Wandering around the high platform to confirm that there are no other abnormalities in the cave, Chu Mu looked at the high platform in front of him.

The high platform is nearly two feet high, in the shape of a pyramid, with steps on all sides to the top.

High texture...

Chu Mu pursed his lips, but he was a little used to the arrogance of the ancient monks.

This high platform is actually made of medium-grade fire-attribute spirit stones.

And in the consciousness perception, the core and source of everything seems to be this high platform.

The surging energy gathered on this high platform, and the endless spiritual energy washed away. The spirit stone high platform in front of me, under the influence of such day after day, has obviously been completely integrated into one, and even somewhat surpassed the middle-grade spirit stone. boundaries.

Chu Mu looked up at the top of the high platform, and then stepped up the steps, step by step, up the high platform.

What caught his eyes was a pill furnace as tall as a person.

Chu Mu was slightly stunned. He had envisioned many scenarios, such as magic weapons, spiritual materials, and even elixir that have been tempered for thousands of years, but he never expected that such a big battle would be for alchemy?
This alchemy... is it the alchemy technique he learned?

After a long period of time, day after day of the earth fire, the nature of the alchemy furnace in front of him has obviously changed.

Under the perception of spiritual consciousness, there is only a strong accumulation of fire. Judging from the knowledge of an alchemist, this pill furnace is no longer suitable for refining any other pills except fire attribute pills.

It has nothing to do with the level of the alchemist, it's just that the alchemy furnace itself has completely changed its nature.

"Ok?"

At the back of the alchemy furnace, Chu Mu suddenly stopped.

The alchemy furnace, which was one person tall, happened to block the view behind.

Only then did he notice that behind the alchemy furnace, there was a... dead body?
Chu Mu took a step back, his eyes fixed on the corpse in front of him.

The corpse is well preserved, but obviously, it has also been eroded by the anger of these long years, and it has become a jade corpse as red as jade!

Vaguely, one can see the original appearance of the corpse, which should be a graceful female cultivator.

Divine consciousness covered and came out, and there was a faintly lingering aura that was far more terrifying than Foundation Establishment, which clearly proved that this woman must be a high-ranking monk above Foundation Establishment.

There is a big hole in the woman's abdomen, which seems to have pierced through the whole body directly.

Yuhua's shriveled internal organs can also be clearly seen on Yuhua's corpse, and the body in front of him was obviously severely injured.

But why... died here?

Chu Mu pondered silently, and a speculative thread came to mind.

The mystery of this place, the person behind it, is this woman.

Then, the woman fought with others, was seriously injured, and fled here...

Therefore, there is also the incompleteness of the big formation?
Then this woman, in such a big battle, practiced... what is it?
Chu Mu slowly squatted down, the woman's robes had been completely burnt, and there was no foreign object on the jade-like corpse, except for a pale silver ring left on the index finger.

Chu Mu carefully touched the woman's body, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he took off the ring.

There is no hindrance to the touch of the spiritual sense, and the spiritual sense penetrates into the ring, and what is reflected in the perception is a dilapidated storage space.

Most of the space has collapsed, and there is only a little bit of space power left to maintain the existence of the remaining storage space.

But this kind of existence is obviously in danger, and it seems that it will completely collapse and disappear at any time.

Before he had time to look more, his consciousness moved slightly, and the few items in the remaining storage space all left the storage space and floated in front of him.

But at this moment, it seemed that such a movement completely broke the fragile balance of this dilapidated storage space. In the dark, I only felt a faint flash of space power. The ring in my hand was still a little bit weak. Very bright light silver, then completely dim.

Re-exploring the spiritual consciousness, the ring has become a dead thing.

He looked at the several objects floating in front of him.

Two jade slips, a jade bottle, and a jade box.

Other than that, there is nothing else.

Chu Mu checked one by one. The two jade slips were both alchemy books, which recorded several alchemy recipes and some experience in alchemy techniques.

The jade bottle contains several elixir, thanks to the good sealing effect of the jade bottle, the efficacy of the medicine is still intact, judging from its efficacy, it seems to be some kind of healing elixir, and it should be ranked third order.

And in the jade box, there is a elixir, the elixir is Shilin ginseng, which is about 600 years old and extremely rare.

Obviously, the information about such a big battle has either disappeared in the turbulent flow of space, or has disappeared with the fall of this woman.

Chu Mu looked at the fiery red alchemy furnace in front of him, and pondered for a moment. He also sat cross-legged, raised his hand to make a formula, threw out one after another formula, and finally landed on this alchemy furnace.

He wants to open the furnace to take the pill!
But when he tried to control the pill furnace, he keenly noticed some abnormalities.

This alchemy furnace has been refined for tens of thousands of years in such a big battle. According to common sense, there must be no other attributes other than the fire attribute, and it must be pure to the extreme.

But at this time, on this alchemy furnace, he actually felt a bit... the aura of thunder attribute?

Chu Mu's expression was suspicious, and he took a closer look. The lines on the surface of the alchemy furnace, which he thought were made by refinement, looked at it now, and they seemed to be traces left by lightning. After roasting, it slowly... came naturally.

At this time, he also suddenly remembered the incompleteness of the outside world...

Perhaps, the incompleteness of the formation was not caused by this woman, but...

Thunder?Catastrophe?
Chu Mu's pupils shrunk slightly. From this guess, his heart beat violently a few times almost uncontrollably.

He remembered that when he was in Shuitianfang, he borrowed some books from the Contribution Hall, and in one of the jade slips, he saw a description of Heavenly Tribulation.

It is said that after the immortal cultivator establishes the foundation, whether it is a pill or a nascent soul, there will be a catastrophe.

Only by passing the test of Heavenly Tribulation can one be truly promoted.

The same is true for monsters. It is even said that the catastrophe of monsters is much more terrifying than the catastrophe of immortal cultivators.

All in all, the catastrophe is a test for practitioners who go against the sky!

And this kind of test does not only exist on living creatures, but also on dead objects.

Dead things such as pills and magic weapons also have heavenly robbery, called pill robbery and weapon robbery.

However, according to the description in that volume of jade slips, catastrophes such as pill calamity and weapon calamity are extremely rare.

Every time it appears, it means that something "heavenly jealous" must appear.

Heaven is jealous...although it is just a description.

But a elixir, a magic weapon, can be envied by the heavens, and how terrible would it be to bring disasters just for it?
Chu Mu stared blankly at the alchemy furnace in front of him, and an associative scene came to mind.

Such a big battle has been refined and cultivated for many years. On the day when the pill was completed, the woman rushed to dragging her seriously injured body.

A cataclysm descended from the sky, piercing tens of thousands of meters underground, ignoring the magma in the sea of ​​fire, breaking the blockade of the large formation, and directly smashed on the alchemy furnace.

In this way, there was the incompleteness of the big formation, and the birth of the earth fire spirit.

But why did this woman die?
Will the pill of the pill furnace survive the catastrophe?Does it still exist?
