Chapter 1552: Encounter with the Immortal Warrior

Looking at the martial beast that was stunned, Xiao Hei was helpless. He originally just wanted to scare this guy to make him behave himself, but he didn't expect that with a roar, the aura of the fairy beast it carried, plus the terrifying airflow, actually stunned it directly.

Xiao Lin did not blame Xiao Hei, but came to the leopard and observed it carefully.

After observing for a while, Xiao Lin touched the leopard's neck artery with his hand, and the power of his spiritual consciousness entered its body along the leopard's meridians. Xiao Lin also gently closed his eyes.

After a moment, Xiao Lin opened his eyes with an expression of surprise. This martial beast was indeed different from the monsters he had seen before. There was no monster power in its body. On the contrary, its blood was extremely strong. Although it was knocked unconscious by Xiao Hei's shout, it was actually caused by the huge level gap.

What surprised Xiao Lin even more was that there was a cyclone on one side of the leopard's heart in its chest. This cyclone echoed with the heart, and the powerful qi and blood force that surged out of the heart all flowed into the cyclone, was continuously refined by the cyclone, and then sent into the heart and circulated throughout the body.

This cyclone is like the Dantian Qi Sea of ​​a cultivator, where the energy of qi and blood is stored.

"Could this be the valve I heard about a few days ago?" However, even he, a top-level cultivator who had practiced Taoism for thousands of years, did not know the method to open the valve.

The reason why immortal cultivators have longer lifespans and stronger magical powers than those who cultivate the body is that immortal cultivators cultivate their primordial spirits and constantly expand their qi sea and dantian to accommodate more magic power. Magic power is transformed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In this process, it can constantly purify and stimulate the body's original potential, thereby bringing about the evolution and improvement of life.

Although the body cultivators refine their qi and blood, temper their skin and bones, and build their bodies into the strongest weapons, a strong body does not mean that it will not age and decay. Although they can increase their lifespan with the help of the power of qi and blood, it is far inferior to that of immortal cultivators.

Of course, the most important reason is that if you want to cultivate the primordial spirit, you must have spiritual roots. Based on the spiritual roots, you must constantly strengthen your soul and then materialize it into the power of spiritual consciousness.

By comprehending the profound principles of heaven, earth and the universe, one can elevate one's own realm, achieve the goal of traveling through all things and growing stronger.

These are things that body cultivators cannot do, so in Xiao Lin's opinion, even if these martial beasts have cultivated the Qi Gate, they can only greatly improve the realm of the body cultivators and many martial arts skills, but it seems impossible to complete the evolution of life and then ascend to a higher level.

Where did the idea of ​​Xianwu come from?

After checking, Xiao Lin got some answers, but he still couldn't fully understand it. It seemed that if he wanted to figure it all out, he needed to find the real Xianwu sect.

What's more, if he wanted to return to the Northern Sky Region of the Holy Moon Continent, he must first figure out where he is. For ordinary mortals, the range of their activities throughout their lives is at most a few hundred miles in radius, which is not worth mentioning at all compared to the vast spiritual world.

Xiao Hei once again spread out his escape light and took Xiao Lin towards the depths of the wild forest.

While flying, Xiao Lin used his spiritual sense to search everywhere. In the process, he discovered many martial beasts. These martial beasts were huge, several dozen feet long. According to Xiao Lin's estimation, their strength was at least equivalent to the high-level Qi Refining to the middle and late Golden Core level.

Some of the martial beasts roared, and the air waves they generated even directly blew up a huge rock that was dozens of feet in size, which shocked Xiao Lin. With this kind of power, even a Jindan cultivator would be torn into pieces in an instant if hit by the impact wave.

This is also the case when the martial beast stores the qi and blood power in the valve, and after refining it, it is transformed into a special energy of qi and blood power. When it is emitted from the body, it also appears light red in color.

The Holy Scale Burning Heaven Technique that Xiao Lin practiced refined his own blood and turned it into a light gold color. However, with Xiao Lin's current level of body refining, he could only emit a blood and qi halo on the surface of his body, but was unable to truly emit it outwards. Of course, with Xiao Lin's current level of body refining, he could throw a punch without stimulating blood and qi. The air compressed by the huge force and speed was enough to turn into a violent air wave and blow up a hill.

However, in comparison, the way that martial beasts used the power of qi and blood was more peculiar and effective, which made Xiao Lin even more curious about the Xianwu Sect.

After searching for several days, Xiao Lin did not see any disciples from the Xianwu Sect except for many martial beasts. This made him begin to doubt whether he had gone in the wrong direction.

Just as he was about to change direction and look to the north, his face suddenly froze, and then he let Xiao Hei fly towards the front left.

After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Xiao Lin asked Xiao Hei to retract his escape light, and the man and the beast fell into a forest.

At this time, Xiao Hei obviously noticed something. Without Xiao Lin's instructions, he took the lead and ran forward. After leaving the forest and passing through two canyons, a sound was heard in the front.

"Brother He, these two martial beasts are second-level high-grade martial beasts. The two of us have just advanced to the eighth-level Qi Sea. It may be a bit dangerous to kill them. How about we gather one or two fellow disciples to kill them together?"

"Junior Brother Lu, why are you so timid? You are a disciple of Yin Quan Sect. These are just two second-level high-quality martial beasts. If we kill them, we can at least exchange them for two middle-quality blood essence pills. If we drag others along, how will we divide them? Do we have to split the blood essence pills in two?"

"Brother, that's not what I meant. It's just that this is a second-level superior martial beast, right? Okay, I'll listen to you, brother. But if we can't defeat it, we must withdraw in time."

"Of course. Do we have to fight to the death if we can't win? We are not willing to risk our lives just for two middle-grade blood essence pills."

The two seemed to have reached an agreement, and then began to discuss the plan on how to hunt the martial beast.

All of this was heard clearly by Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei who were hiding behind a rock not far away.

And Xiao Lin also knew through his spiritual sense that what the two men were planning to hunt were two gray wolves, a male and a female. However, these two gray wolves were at least 50 to 60 feet long and more than 10 feet tall. Putting them in front of people, they looked like a small mountain, which was really scary.

From the two people, Xiao Lin also learned that these two gray wolves were actually second-level top-grade martial beasts.

Xiao Lin originally wanted to show up and ask for advice, but at this moment he changed his mind. He secretly gave some instructions to Xiao Hei, and immediately a black light emerged from Xiao Hei's body and enveloped Xiao Lin. The next moment, with a flash of black light, the man and the beast disappeared.

A black light flashed in the void a hundred feet above, but this scene did not attract the attention of the two people below.

Xiao Hei was using a magical power to conceal his tracks, called the Art of Transmutation. He could hide himself in the void so that others could not sense him. However, they could see through that small piece of void and take in everything that was happening below.

The two men looked very young, about twenty years old. One of them was nine feet tall, like a bamboo pole, while the other was a head shorter than him and had an honest face.

Xiao Lin recognized him immediately. The bamboo-like figure should be Senior Brother He, and the short and fat man behind him must be Junior Brother Lu.

Both of them were wearing a grey tight robe with a palm-sized breastplate embedded in their chest. The breastplate was not round but gourd-shaped.

Xiao Lin understood at just one glance that the valve used by the Xianwu Sect's disciples to practice should be the same as that of the martial beast, both of which are located next to the heart. The heart-protecting mirror protects the heart on the one hand, and focuses on protecting the valve on the other.

The two men's bodies were as fast as lightning, and there was no drag in their movements. Before Xiao Lin became an immortal, he had only seen two or three people perform this kind of body movement, and all of them were extremely powerful warriors who had advanced from acquired to innate levels.

These two men were as light as a swallow. When they came across a ravine dozens of feet deep while swimming, they did not even need to use any leverage. They just stomped their feet in the air a few times and jumped over. This is something that even innate warriors may not be able to do.

After flying for several miles, the two men came to a small valley. In the valley was a deep pool about an acre in size. There were more than a dozen large bluestones beside the pool. The two wolves were lying beside the bluestones, with their bellies turned over, looking drowsy.

As the two entered the valley, the two wolves immediately became alert and stood up abruptly. The moment they stood up, they saw seven or eight light red fist shadows rushing towards them from the air, and each fist was about a foot in size.

The two wolves also reacted very quickly. After seeing that they were attacked, they became furious. They opened their mouths and roared. Then, light red air waves rushed into the air and instantly collided with the fist shadow.

Along with bursts of gas explosions, waves of air spread out in the surroundings. The light red air waves swept across the rocks, causing them to explode one after another. Although the rocks did not shatter, they were blown into flying chips, making a loud noise.

Naturally, Xiao Lin looked down upon this level of fighting. The body-refining skills of the two young men were at most at the level of a beginner body-refiner. They could only deal with some first- and second-level monsters. If they faced monsters of a higher level, they would probably flee in panic.

In Xiao Lin's eyes, the two gray wolves were just slightly stronger true-level monsters. To a top-level cultivator like him in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, they were not worth mentioning at all.

After just watching for a moment, Xiao Lin lost interest.

I saw a black light descending from the sky with a majestic momentum, landing in the valley. At that moment, the air waves burst out, sweeping out one after another. More than a dozen large bluestones beside the deep pool exploded under this momentum.

The two wolves and the two men all showed expressions of horror and retreated away from each other. Both of them showed expressions of horror. As for the two wolves, they also had a high IQ and knew that the momentum that had just fallen from the sky was not aimed at them. If it was aimed at them, their fate would be the same as those boulders.

The dust cleared, revealing a man and a beast, who were none other than Xiao Lin and Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei's body only expanded to about the same height as Xiao Lin, but the aura emanating from his body, which was only possessed by immortals, made the two old men kneel on the ground and tremble.

The two men looked at Xiao Lin with horrified expressions. The man in front of them gave them a sense of majesty like an ancient sacred mountain, which made them unable to muster any desire to resist.

"Junior He Jingwu from Yin Quan Sect, paying respects to senior."

"Junior Lu Keming from Yin Quan Sect, paying respects to the senior."

The two men knelt on one knee before Xiao Lin and paid homage to him, which made Xiao Lin feel a little uncomfortable for being too harsh on them.

"You guys get up."

After the two stood up, Xiao Lin spoke: "Don't be nervous, I have no ill will towards you, I just want to ask some questions, you just need to answer honestly."

The two men glanced at the two gray wolves lying on the ground not far away, staring at the big black dog with fear in their eyes, and nodded repeatedly.

He Jingwu even said, "Senior, if you have any questions, we two promise to answer them without hesitation."

Xiao Lin nodded and began to ask questions.

The two of them looked like good kids and answered every question.

It lasted for an hour before Xiao Lin stopped, frowning slightly with a thoughtful expression on his face.

It turns out that this continent is called Shengwu Continent. As for how big it is, the two of them couldn't tell, but from their general description, it should be much smaller than Shengyue Continent.

The endless and wild mountain forest where they were located was called the Wushou Mountain Range. In this mountain range, there lived countless martial beasts, as well as many immortal martial arts sects.

Among these immortal martial arts sects, the three supreme immortal martial arts sects are the most powerful, and there are at least hundreds of other second- and third-rate sects, large and small. For example, the Yin Quan Sect where the two are located is one of the third-rate sects. There are about a thousand disciples in the sect, and the sect master is only a sixth-grade initial-level immortal martial artist. In the entire Wushou Mountain Range, he is considered a strong man.

Through these two people, Xiao Lin also learned that the immortal warriors were divided into grades from ninth to first. The two people in front of him were eighth-grade beginner immortal warriors. In the Wushou Mountain Range, the strongest were the legendary third-grade immortal warriors. Third-grade immortal warriors only existed in the three supreme immortal martial arts sects. A third-grade immortal warrior was enough to easily destroy a second-rate sect.

The two people in front of them had come out of the sect for a trial and were currently staying in [Qingcang City]. They wanted to hunt a few martial beasts in exchange for some Essence Blood Pills to improve their cultivation. They didn't expect to run into Xiao Lin as soon as they made a move.

Xiao Lin also asked about the Qi valve, and they didn't know how to answer. In fact, this was not surprising. This was originally a special body cultivation method. In their view, this was a very normal thing. They just gave a brief explanation of the process of their own cultivation of the Qi valve.

Among them, He Jingwu even took out the Earth-Splitting Fist that he had practiced and wanted to give it to Xiao Lin. Xiao Lin took it and just looked at it for a few seconds before returning it to him. Although he was very interested in immortal martial arts, he would not covet the skills of a low-level immortal martial artist. What he wanted to go to were the three supreme immortal martial arts sects.
