The Intelligence Revenue Service's Chief Wang Lu took a deep breath.
The next moment, the weather changed and the waves surged.
The dirty old man He Yun and Wu Feihua's complexion changed dramatically. Although their cultivation level was not high, they didn't have high-grade spirit root, and their perception of the surrounding spiritual energy was not as good as the new disciples of Lingjian School … But how could they not feel the turbulent spiritual energy around them?
Wang Lu inhaled and the surrounding spiritual energy within a radius of three hundred meters roared and gathered! This was partly due to his own spirit root attribute, and partly due to the power of the array. But … it was a radius of three hundred meters! Even if it was an ordinary Daoist Master King Pill, could he have such a vast spiritual energy field?
The dirty old man tried his best to absorb the spiritual energy, but it only affected the space within a few meters around him!
At the same time, Wang Lu, who was in the center of the storm, also felt a great pressure. This kind of violent absorption method was rarely used after he entered the right track in his Qi Cultivating Stage. Now, in his Inner Mansion, he had formed a vortex-like spiritual energy cycle. Relying on the super permeability of the Void Spirit Root, the spiritual energy gathering speed was enough to meet his needs. Although this kind of violent absorption was amazingly efficient, it also caused a lot of damage to the body. The huge wave of spiritual energy crashed into the wall of the Void Spirit Root, but it only produced a platinum rain. However, the two hundred and six soaring Sword Bones had to bear a huge pressure — these Non-Phase Sword Bones were the only channel to communicate with the inside and outside, but its capacity was limited. For an ordinary cultivator, it might be enough, but if Wang Lu used all his strength to absorb the spiritual energy, the two hundred and six Sword Bones would immediately operate at full capacity. Now, with the assistance of the array, it was even more overloaded. Golden liquid continuously flowed out from the tip of the Sword Bones, but the Jade Pillar itself trembled incessantly, as if it was about to explode.
After an unknown period of time, this round of spiritual energy gathering finally came to an end. The platinum rain evaporated and turned back into the surrounding spiritual energy. Wang Lu suddenly felt his whole body relax.
Of course, in the eyes of the outside world, it looked like a huge wave of Spiritual Qi was rushing towards them, and the Spiritual Qi that had gathered just now was rushing back with an even more violent momentum! This change was very violent, the dirty old man and Wu Feihua subconsciously retreated two steps. At the same time, they felt the circulation of magical power within their body was faintly affected. Their complexion couldn't help but change: What an overbearing spiritual qi tide!
Retracting and releasing, gathering and dispersing, it was like the ebb and flow of the sea. It operated in cycles, and that was how it got its name. And since it operated in cycles … it naturally meant that it would happen more than once.
After a while, Wang Lu activated the Sword Bone again and took a deep breath.
This time, even more spiritual energy was gathered. Affected by the previous absorption, the range of absorption this time had expanded by a full 50 meters! This was also the core of the spiritual energy tide.
Every time it was released, more and more spiritual energy would be drawn into the cycle. The cycle would repeat, and the spiritual energy would roll like a snowball.
Naturally, the pressure on Wang Lu himself was even greater. If the Sword Bone just trembled, then during the second round of absorption, he could even hear the Sword Bone issuing a painful buzzing sound … And the platinum rain inside his Jade Mansion also poured down like a waterfall.
But this was not enough.
During the third round of absorption, the spiritual energy within 400 meters crazily surged, and the total amount was almost doubled compared to the first round! The intensity of the impact also increased by thirty to forty percent. Wang Lu clearly felt the overwhelming pain in his bones, and he knew that he had indeed been injured.
Just by absorbing spiritual energy, he was able to injure the indestructible Non-Phase Sword Bone, so one could imagine the power of this spiritual energy tide! However, according to Wang Lu's expectation, this was still not enough!
He needed to absorb at least three more rounds to accumulate enough energy to build a spiritual energy tide that could release and retract on its own. And in the last three rounds, each time, he feared that he would be crushed to pieces!
However, who told him to cultivate the Non-Phase Sword Bone? The thing that the Non-Phase Sword Bone was least afraid of was injury. As long as it wasn't a devastating blow that was difficult to recover from, each injury would only make the Non-Phase Sword Bone tougher. Although the process was painful, why would Wang Lu care about it?
Thus, the fourth round, the fifth round, the sixth round … When the spiritual energy within the radius of 500 meters was swept in by this crazy tide, Wang Lu knew that the time was almost ripe.
Next, it was the real core link, which was to add his own influence at the junction of the ebb and flow of the tide, so that this artificially formed tide could operate spontaneously, thus forming a real tide … To do this, it did not require too much strength, but it required extremely accurate calculation and grasp. And this was precisely the strong point of a top student!
Long before he personally put it into practice, Wang Lu had simulated and deduced it several times on the Dog Ear Mountain, so that he was sure that his calculation would not be wrong. When the sixth round of absorption and retraction ended, when the spiritual energy tide's influence expanded to more than 500 meters, as long as he added the spiral force just right, it could form a permanent spiritual energy tide. And this spiral, he had already prepared it in his Inner Mansion for a long time.
Taking advantage of the fleeting moment of tranquility after the sixth round of absorption and retraction, Wang Lu endured the severe pain in his Inner Mansion and prepared to extract the spiral force. Next, during the seventh round of absorption, this spiral force would trigger a miraculous effect. However, at this time …
Buzz!
In Wang Lu's field of vision, the spiritual energy, which had been restrained by the surging of the sixth round of the tide and began to move in a regular cycle, suddenly trembled irregularly.
Holy sh * t! Suddenly, Wang Lu was restless!
To build an altar with the cultivation base of low-level Qi Cultivating Stage, this was not something that could be done just by relying on the Void Spirit Root. Each step had been repeatedly calculated and deduced by Wang Lu. Even if there was a slight difference, the final result would be a thousand miles off. And this irregular tremor was precisely that millimeter difference!
Without thinking about the reason for the error, Wang Lu calmed his heart, put the prepared spiral force back into his Inner Mansion, and then quickly issued an order to the Non-Phase Sword Bone.
Suck it!
The best way to smooth out the error was to submerge it in the surging waves of the spiritual energy tide! Wang Lu had high hopes for the construction of this altar, how could he not consider the possibility of an accident? Therefore, when the accident really happened, although Wang Lu was surprised, he didn't panic.
The seventh round of the spiritual energy tide successfully erased the trace of the trembling. When the tide receded and the next round of the tide was about to rise, Wang Lu once again took out the spiral force from his Inner Mansion. But at this time …
Buzz!
Another inexplicable tremble completely disrupted Wang Lu's rhythm! And this time, Wang Lu was not only restless.
One accident could be said to be an accident, but two times in a row, and they came so strangely … then there must be a reason!
However, no matter what the reason is, if you want to stop me from building the altar, there's no way! The eighth round of the tide, smooth out this damn error for me!
At this time, each round of the tide surged, which was a great burden on Wang Lu's body. Although the Non-Phase Sword Bone was extremely tough, under the crazy spiritual energy scouring, there were signs of complete collapse.
But at this time, Wang Lu was also in a difficult situation. After the sixth round, the spiritual energy tide entered a gradually strong channel. Without the help of external force, it would automatically retract and release, and the strength would become stronger and stronger! Of course, it was still far from the perfect spiritual energy tide. If left unchecked, the spiritual energy tide would continue to become more and more intense, and when it reached the extreme point, it would suddenly disperse … But before that, Wang Lu would have long been overwhelmed by the crazy spiritual energy.
According to the estimation, the strength of the Non-Phase Sword Bone could only last until the tenth round. After the tenth round, the tendons and bones would break, and the Inner Mansion would collapse, without a doubt …
And now, the spiritual energy tide had reached the ninth round.
Wang Lu's only hope was to find the cause of the error in the next two rounds, and then erase it. However, this task was really not easy.
The abnormal tremor of the spiritual energy was not man-made, because each tremor was precisely produced when the spiritual energy tide surged to a certain extent. According to what Wang Lu had learned, it was very likely that he had accidentally touched some kind of Feng Shui node.
This was really strange. These days, Wang Lu had already explored the geomancy of the Dog Ear Mountain, and he had also roughly figured out the law of the surrounding spiritual energy. Otherwise, he would not dare to easily build this altar. If there was any hidden Feng Shui node in the Dog Ear Mountain, he should have been able to find it in the past few days.
Unfortunately, this was the case, and he could only blame himself for his poor eyesight … While Wang Lu was desperately thinking about the cause of the error, the ninth round of impact finally arrived.
The severe pain in his body made him black out, and for a few breaths, his mind went blank. However, this severe stimulation also brought him a touch of inspiration — if the error could not be eliminated, then wouldn't it be better to incorporate it into the formula and make it a part of the entire spiritual energy system? It was almost equivalent to a super strong error correction. Then, as long as he slightly changed the original formula, he could smoothly bypass the error and establish the tide. The only problem now was, could he still adjust the formula?
Because the tenth round of the tide had arrived.
Wang Lu's theoretical limit was after the tenth round of the tide, but just now, the strength of the ninth round was enough to make him temporarily unconscious, and the tenth round was even more powerful. He was likely to be crushed by the eleventh round of the tide while he was unconscious.
However, at this time, there was no point in panicking. In the face of crisis, Wang Lu raised all his spirit. The Non-Phase Emperor Bone crazily rotated, constantly giving instructions to the other Sword Bones. Each Sword Bone moved, each adjusted its angle, and released the accumulated spiritual energy to deal with the future impact.
In theory, under the strong impact of the eleventh round, which was enough to shake the Daoist of King Pill, these efforts could at most increase the survival rate by one percent. However, the quality of a professional adventurer was reflected here. Even if it was only one percent, it was worth a hundred percent effort.
And just when Wang Lu was ready to face the test, another unexpected change happened.
The Sword Bone was unsheathed.
Wang Lu's Non-Phase Sword Bone was now in the ninth realm. Most of the two hundred and six bones in his body were actually the bones of the scabbard. There were only a few real Sword Bones, which were distributed in both of his hands, which effectively improved the flexibility of the Non-Phase Sword Art. However, its real function was still far from being played. The next step should be to unsheathe the Sword Bone, changing from passive to active, and further improving the defense — that was the tenth realm.
Originally, Wang Lu thought that he had to first transform all of the two hundred and six bones into Sword Bones before he could unsheathe the sword, which he had confirmed with his Master. However, under the crisis, the Sword Bones automatically reacted, and even without the command of the Emperor Bone, they unsheathed themselves, which greatly exceeded Wang Lu's expectation.
But this was a good thing. Unsheathing the Sword Bone and hiding the blade were two completely different concepts! The moment the Sword Bones were unsheathed, the oncoming wave of spiritual energy seemed to be separated by an invisible sword, and the pressure was greatly reduced!
The sword divided the huge wave, this was the power of the unsheathed Sword Bone … Although because his cultivation base was not perfect enough, the two hundred and six Sword Bones were not completely cultivated, so facing the huge wave of spiritual energy that came from all directions, they couldn't completely offset its power. However, overall, Wang Lu's pressure was still offset by thirty to forty percent! This meant that he could withstand at least two more waves. Moreover, the moment the Sword Bones broke through, the scabbard inside his body reacted, and the connection with the spiritual energy became more intimate. The cracks that were originally formed by the scabbard were immediately eliminated. It was probably equivalent to the full health after the upgrade …
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Wang Lu quickly adjusted the formula and changed the structure of the spiral in his Inner Mansion. Before long, a brand new perfect spiral appeared in his Inner Mansion. Next, as long as he extracted it, a perfect spiritual energy tide would emerge.
And then … the ideal altar in his mind should also take shape.
As the altar for the establishment of his sect, Wang Lu carefully chose a sixth grade altar, the Solidifying Jade Altar. Its specialty was that it had an extremely high degree of refinement of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Even in a place like the Wang Family Village, where the concentration of spiritual energy was not enough to be called a true paradise, it could still be refined into high-grade spirit stones and other precious materials.
Of course, the grade of spirit stones and materials was actually not important to Wang Lu. What really attracted him to the Solidifying Jade Altar was that this was the only sixth grade altar that he could build with his low-grade Qi Cultivating cultivation. The key to its construction was the extremely high spiritual pressure when establishing the tide, and this was also the only specialty that Wang Lu could bring out. It was practically a match made in heaven.
Facing the last round of spiritual energy tide, Wang Lu extracted the spiral in his Inner Mansion. In a split second, it collided with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, triggering a mysterious reaction. The scattered materials for the altar slowly floated into the air, and were swept up by the combined force of the spiritual energy and the spiral. They automatically decomposed and assembled, forming the foundation of the altar. In a moment, the embryonic form of the altar had already appeared!
However, at this moment, in Wang Lu's field of vision, a shocking wave soared into the sky!
F * ck! Again!? Wang Lu did not even have time to be surprised. His eyes were firmly attracted by the wave of something.
The range of the last round of the tide had expanded to a radius of more than 700 meters, so he just happened to see the source of the change in the spiritual energy.
The source of the change in the spiritual energy was actually his home! Of course, it was not the house in the east of the village, but under the old house where he was born. A strange stone was shallowly buried in the soil. It was no different from other rocks, but under the super strong impact of the last round of spiritual energy, it stirred up, causing the spiritual energy to surge into the sky, and its body also broke out of the soil! Like a sharp sword!
Wang Lu laughed at himself in his heart. That stone was buried by himself more than ten years ago. At that time, he felt a wave of sorrow in his heart, as if he had buried his whole life … Unfortunately, at that time, his body was young, and his mind was not fully developed. His memory was vague, and later, unconsciously, he actually forgot about it.
That was an incomparably precious comet fragment! It carried incredible energy. As a professional adventurer, when calculating the spiritual energy tide, he actually neglected such an important factor! It was simply a blunder!
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything at this time. That fragment, pushed by the sweeping and whistling spiritual energy, fiercely sprang out of the soil, flying rapidly towards Wang Lu. Its speed was so fast that even little Ling Er did not have time to react.
In the blink of an eye, that fragment was wrapped by the spiritual energy and rushed into the center of the spiritual energy tide!
The embryonic Jade Altar, which had originally already formed, was invaded by a foreign object, and suddenly twisted!
Wang Lu tightly pursed his lips, persisted for a moment, and made a decision in his heart. He said in a fierce voice.
Fuck you, I don't care anymore!
