At this moment, Mo Wuji could not care less about the pain in his body as he exerted strength in both his legs. His entire body burst forth with extreme strength as he charged towards that Sky Channel Flower.
The Sky Channel Flower floated in the mist as Mo Wuji easily plucked it and placed it in a jade box.
After obtaining the Sky Channel Flower, Mo Wuji did not want to stay in this place for another second as he turned and charged out of the mist.
At this moment, he was glad that he had his spiritual will as without it, he could forget about leaving this place.
Mo Wuji's speed was extremely fast as he used only an incense's time to charge out of the canyon, ending the nightmare of being entangled in the mist.
Waves of soreness spread throughout his body as Mo Wuji hurriedly swallowed a few more Poison Cleansing Pills before leaving the canyon. This mist was a little strange as he had no idea what kind of poison it was.
This time, Mo Wuji chose a completely different direction from the one he came from as he did not want to pass through that even stranger place filled with weeds and broken walls again. This time, he did not even look at the map he bought from Honest Qi.
After running for three days, Mo Wuji felt that something was wrong as his body became stiffer and stiffer which was a clear sign of being poisoned.
He needed to find a place to cure himself of the poison before anything else. Mo Wuji scanned his surroundings and other than a swamp in one direction, the rest of the place was a barren wilderness without a single place to hide.
Mo Wuji could only choose to enter the swamp as he did not know how serious the poison was. If it was serious, he might need a long time to cure himself of the poison so he had to find a safe and secluded place.
Few people would enter the swamp so as long as he could find a suitable place to hide, he would be able to make do.
…
Half a day had passed since Mo Wuji entered the swamp but he still could not find a good place to hide. At this moment, his entire body was covered in the mud of the swamp which did not matter to Mo Wuji at all. What made him flustered was that his body was getting stiffer as he did not know when he would turn into a human-shaped stone like the one in the misty canyon.
The Lost Sky Ruins was indeed too dangerous and he did not even intentionally go to dangerous places but he had already met with two life-threatening situations.
From afar, three familiar figures appeared in Mo Wuji's line of sight. Mo Wuji hurriedly threw himself onto the swamp. He recognised that these three people were the ones who tried to snatch his storage bag by the lake. Eventually, he managed to escape after taking out the map and booklet he bought from Honest Qi.
He didn't expect to run into these three people again. At this time, he absolutely could not let the three of them find out. Once they found out, with his stiff body, he would be courting death.
Mo Wuji's body was originally covered in mud, and now that he was in the swamp, even if someone looked at him, they might not notice him. The three of them clearly did not discover Mo Wuji. After looking around, they chose a direction to leave in.
Mo Wuji's heart was filled with suspicions. In the booklet that he gave, there was no mention of the swamp. What were these three doing here?
Mo Wuji quickly recalled how the three of them tried to forcefully buy the storage bag. He guessed that the three of them must have found something good. From the looks of it, this place could very well be the place where the three of them found something good.
After lying in the mud for half an incense's time, Mo Wuji confirmed that the three of them had gone far away. Only then did he crawl up and dashed towards the place where the three of them suddenly appeared.
This was a small swamp hill. This kind of swamp hill was very common in this swamp. Around this swamp hill, other than a few pits, there were many water plants covering it.
There's nothing here? Mo Wuji walked two rounds around this swamp hill doubtfully and muttered to himself.
On his third round, Mo Wuji finally realised that something was wrong. The water plants at the bottom of the hill seemed to be slightly slanted. If one did not look closely, one would not be able to tell. Not only that, there was not a single drop of water around the water plants.
Mo Wuji walked over and pulled that piece of seaweed. A slanted hole appeared in front of Mo Wuji's eyes. It was slanted towards the swamp hill at the side.
The dense spiritual energy was captured by Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji immediately jumped in and at the same time, restored the water plant.
The deeper he went down the slanted hole, the denser the spiritual energy became. Even though Mo Wuji's entire body was stiff and uncomfortable, being enveloped by this dense spiritual energy made him feel much more comfortable.
Half an hour later, Mo Wuji stopped and looked at the scene in front of him in shock. The ground was littered with spirit stones, and in front of him was a spirit stone mine that had not been excavated much.
At this point, if Mo Wuji still did not know what the three fellas wanted the storage bags for, then he would be a pig. It turned out that the three fellas had discovered a spirit stone mine. Not to mention his own storage bags, even if he gave them 10 storage bags, it would still not be enough.
Mo Wuji guessed that the three fellas would not return in a short period of time. He simply sat down in the middle of the spirit stone mine and started to check for poison in his body.
After a few minutes, Mo Wuji's forehead was already covered in sweat. He was sure that among the Channel Opening Stage cultivators, no one would be as familiar with his meridians as he was. Every single one of his meridians was opened by his own lightning essence.
Even with his familiarity with his body, he could not detect any abnormalities in his body. This meant that he could not find the cause of his poisoning, or what poison it was.
Mo Wuji took out the Land Spiritual Herb book and flipped through it again. He only found the Sky Channel Flower, but there was no explanation on how to cure the poison from the Sky Channel Peanut.
Mo Wuji kept the Land Spiritual Herb book disappointedly, and frowned. He had found the Sky Channel Flower, but if he could not cure his poison, finding the Sky Channel Flower or the location of the spirit stone mine would be meaningless to him.
He casually took out the jade box from his storage bag and opened it. A beautiful purple flower was lying quietly in the jade box. The moment the jade box was opened, a refreshing fragrance filled Mo Wuji's heart with a sense of satisfaction.
Could the Sky Channel Flower cure poison? Mo Wuji suddenly remembered an old Chinese doctor's words back on Earth. Most poisonous plants had antidotes not far from them. Even though this statement was not logical, Mo Wuji still thought that the Sky Channel Flower could cure poison.
Since the Sky Channel Flower could grow in the poisonous fog, it meant that the flower itself was not afraid of the poisonous fog. Perhaps, the Sky Channel Flower could really cure poison.
As he thought of this, Mo Wuji took out a few Energy Gathering Pills and swallowed them. He rarely used pills to cultivate, much less in a place with so much spiritual energy. But at this moment, Mo Wuji only hoped that he could reach the Great Circle of Channel Opening Stage Level 12 as soon as possible, and then attempt to break through to the Spirit Building Stage.
Even if there was still Channel Opening Stage Level 13, he would still try to use the Sky Channel Flower to break through to the Spirit Building Stage.
Cultivating in a spirit stone mine was much more effective than cultivating with spirit stones alone. This was because before the spirit stones were dug out, they contained a kind of heavenly dao spirituality, which made them more suitable for cultivation. With Mo Wuji's fast rate of absorbing spiritual energy, not only did he cultivate in the spirit stone mine, he even had to use pills. With his cultivation speed, it was impossible for him not to be fast.
In a short two days, Mo Wuji charged to the advanced stage of Channel Opening Stage Level 12. Mo Wuji swallowed a few more Energy Gathering Pills, and started absorbing spiritual energy at a crazy rate.
For a Channel Opening Stage cultivator to be able to cultivate to the point where spiritual energy could form a spiritual whirlpool around him, it was rare.
Mo Wuji's rate of absorbing spiritual energy was very fast, and so was his cultivation level. However, there was no joy in his heart. It was nearing the third day, and his body was getting stiffer and stiffer.
He reached the Great Circle of Channel Opening Stage Level 12. At this moment, Mo Wuji rigidly placed the Sky Channel Flower that he had prepared earlier into his mouth.
The Sky Channel Flower tasted like a rose, with a hint of sweetness.
Before Mo Wuji could savor the taste of the Sky Channel Flower, a violent wave of spiritual energy started burning within his body.
This terrifying burning reminded Mo Wuji of the time when he first cultivated the Seven Styles Lightning Sky. His five viscera and six bowels were almost completely burned to ashes.
At this moment, Mo Wuji was elated. With the experience of the Seven Styles Lightning Sky, he was not worried that he would be burnt to death by the Sky Channel Flower. The reason why he was elated was because his stiff body was starting to soften. Evidently, the poisonous fog was gradually disappearing, as though it was being burnt away by the Sky Channel Flower's strong spiritual energy.
It seemed like his guess was right, the Sky Channel Flower could really cure the poison that was causing his body to stiffen.
Without any worries, Mo Wuji revolved his cultivation technique to the maximum, furiously absorbing spiritual energy to break through to the next stage.
The Sky Channel Flower's explosive spiritual energy, coupled with Mo Wuji's crazy absorption of spiritual energy, almost caused Mo Wuji's body to explode after a few circulations. Mo Wuji knew that this was the most dangerous moment, as he had the experience of using lightning to attack meridians. The violent and fiery spiritual energy of the Sky Channel Flower was all directed by Mo Wuji into his 100th spirit channel.
"Boom!" Mo Wuji felt his 100th meridian open. This was the first time Mo Wuji opened a meridian, and there was such a huge commotion.
The terrifying spiritual energy finally had a place to vent, and Mo Wuji's entire body felt relaxed.
Following which, Mo Wuji was pleasantly surprised to find that his Immortal Mortal Technique was circulating more smoothly, and the rate at which he absorbed spiritual energy increased. A portion of elemental energy started to accumulate in his 100th meridian.
What Elder Dai Zhu said was not completely correct. After the 100th meridian was opened, not only could it accumulate spiritual energy, it could also increase the speed of cultivation.
After an incense's time, the spiritual energy in Mo Wuji's meridians started to circulate, and the surrounding spiritual energy started to rush towards Mo Wuji. A power that could surpass the Channel Opening Stage spread throughout his body, and the spiritual energy in Mo Wuji's meridians finally formed a wall, forming a wave-like elemental energy wall.
Spirit Building Stage was a success. Mo Wuji stood up excitedly. He was a mortal without spiritual roots, and after experiencing countless hardships and even brushing shoulders with death, he finally succeeded.
All of this, was achieved through his own hard work.
