Innate Puzzle World: Inside a forest:
After some treatment, Song QingShu felt much better. Although he still felt somewhat weak, the discomfort in his body had vanished.
Nearly all the First Song Sect disciples around him were crippled. As for the remaining dozens, the earlier explosion had drained them of all signs of life.
As Song QingShu looked at the crippled First Song Sect disciples, grief welled up in his heart. He somewhat regretted pursuing Gu Hai. However, he hated Gu Hai even more.
"Many thanks to Division Master Montes for saving my life!" Song QingShu said gratefully.
The group of people before Song QingShu was the bearded Elite Hall Earth Division Master and a group of Elite Hall disciples.
"Never mind. Song QingShu, we might still be working for Elite Hall in the future. However, I could not bear to see you suffer such a tragedy. Unexpectedly, this newly conferred Water Division Master is so vicious, not even letting off his own subordinates!" Montes said with a frown.
Song QingShu showed an uncertain expression as he said, "Indeed. I have not done anything to him yet. To think that he laid such a trap for me. If I follow him, even if I manage to escape today, he will definitely think of ways to kill me in the future. "
"Song QingShu, what do you plan to do next?" Montes asked.
"Kill Gu Hai. If Gu Hai does not die, I will not be at ease!" Song QingShu said hatefully.
However, Montes smiled faintly and said, "The Water Division Master did go overboard." Beep! Beep!
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Beep! Beep! Beep! Suddenly, the sound of a flute came from the distant forest.
"Huh?" Montes raised his eyebrows.
The subordinates behind Montes seemed to have a tacit understanding. One of them immediately rushed to the flute sound to investigate.
"Oh no! A wave of animal spirits! Division Master, leave quickly!" the person who went to investigate shouted from a distance.
"Ah!"
A loud sound rang out, accompanied by a miserable cry. That person immediately flew back like a cannonball.
Boom!
A gigantic creature landed not far away and stepped on that person's body.
"A animal spirit wolf?" Song QingShu's expression changed.
He saw a giant wolf that was nearly three meters tall. It had a ferocious expression on its face as it stepped on that person. The giant wolf's eyes glowed red as it stared ferociously at the group of people.
"Branch Leader, save me!" That person roared in fear.
"Bastard! Don't you dare! " Montes glared and took out a long saber. With a slash, a saber Qi pierced over from a distance.
"Roar!"
The demonic wolf roared and spat out a ball of light from its mouth, which collided with the saber Qi.
Boom!
With a loud boom, the saber Qi and the ball of light exploded. Clearly, the saber Qi was too far away.
But at that moment, a group of Class One Hall members had already rushed forward. They raised their weapons and wanted to kill the monster wolf and save their comrades from its claws.
"Bastard, scram!" Everyone raised their blades and slashed.
At this moment, huge figures rushed out of the forest. They were all in the shape of giant wolves.
"Rumble!"
Everyone rushed over and was immediately sent flying.
"What?" Song QingShu's expression changed.
"Rumble!"
The number of demonic wolves continued to increase. In the blink of an eye, there were already thirty demonic wolves. Furthermore, the number was still increasing.
The first demonic wolf to charge over suddenly opened its mouth and bit the person under its foot.
"Ah! Division Leader, save me!"
Crunch!
The demonic wolf bit that person in half and swallowed him.
Beep! Beep!
As the flute music rang out, the number of demonic wolves continued to increase. In the blink of an eye, there were already fifty demonic wolves.
There were only ten-odd people around Montes. These demonic wolves were still increasing in strength. Even if Montes fought, he would have to weigh his gains and losses.
"Run! Quickly run!" Montes's expression changed as he said.
"Martial Uncle, save me! Save me!" the crippled First Song Sect disciples on the ground cried out in fear.
Song QingShu looked at the demonic wolf pack and felt a chill in his heart. Then, he turned his head and ignored his martial nephews, fleeing into the distance faster than the others. Survival could stimulate one's potential. At this moment, his earlier injuries were no longer important. He only had one thought: run!
Whoosh!
The group of people immediately fled into the distance.
"Roar!" The demonic wolf pack gave chase.
"Martial Uncle, save me! Save me!" the group of crippled First Song Sect disciples cried out in despair.
However, no one could save them now. The demonic wolves that charged over split them up in bites.
The demonic wolves gave chase into the distance.
There were two huge wolves behind the demonic wolf pack. A black-clad man stood on each of the huge wolves. One of the black-clad men played the flute, looking like he was commanding the demonic wolves.
"The Ninth Young Master gave the order to surround them but not kill them. Banish them into Carefree Valley and let them experience boundless despair before killing them," the other black-clad man said.
"I know. These few are just pacifying the demonic wolves. That way, they can flee faster. I will slowly chase them away," the person playing the flute answered.
Carefree Valley:
Gu Hai asked Venerable Lian Sheng for guidance on the three spiritual and seven physical souls. Venerable Lian Sheng had a good impression of Gu Hai, so he told him everything he knew.
"This little snake used to live here? I believe you are here for the spirit spring? "Venerable Lian Sheng suddenly asked with a smile.
"Indeed, that is the case!" Gu Hai nodded and admitted.
"Never mind. Everyone, if you don't mind, let's go soak in the spirit spring together. This spring is rather strange. It seems to have been laid by Old Man Guanqi back then," Venerable Lian Sheng said with a smile.
"Ah? Aren't spirit springs formed naturally? "Chen Tianshan exclaimed in shock.
"Old Man Guanqi had the ability to lay them down," Venerable Lian Sheng explained.
"Huh?" Chen Tianshan exclaimed in shock.
"Venerable, please!" Gu Hai said with a smile.
Venerable Lian Sheng nodded.
Then, the group slowly entered the cave with Venerable Lian Sheng. The cave was very long. Soon, the group arrived at the deepest part, an area that looked like a large hall. Night Pearls hung on the walls, illuminating the interior.
The cave was sealed, with only one exit.
There were three circular pools in the center. The pools were filled with pebbles, and the water gave off a faint blue light.
Chen Tianshan reached out and touched the edge of one of the pools. Joy immediately appeared on his face as he exclaimed, "It is indeed a spirit spring!"
"Benefactor, this pool gives off a blue light once a year. Every time the valley master soaks in it, the blue light disappears," Xiaorou said.
"That is because the Spiritual Energy already entered the body!" Chen Tianshan said somewhat impatiently.
However, Venerable Lian Sheng frowned slightly as he looked at the pool.
"This blue light is water-attributed Spiritual Energy. Once a year? Every move of Old Mister Guan Qi's was not without purpose. Although he died, this spring water definitely has a deeper meaning, "Venerable Lian Sheng said sullenly.
"Oh?"
"Division Master Gu, why don't you give it a try first?" Venerable Lian Sheng smiled as he looked at Gu Hai.
Gu Hai nodded, not rejecting. He put down Xiaorou and stepped into one of the pools of blue light.
Then, he slowly sat down cross-legged and silently circulated his True Dragon Innate Cultivation Technique.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, Gu Hai felt a vast Spiritual Energy in the water enter his body through his pores. This speed was many times faster than when he absorbed the Spiritual Energy in the air. The surging Spiritual Energy rushed to his dantian.
"Hey? Why is Benefactor's body giving off a purple light? "Xiaorou exclaimed in shock.
"Isn't this water-attributed Spiritual Energy? Why is it purple? "Chen Tianshan asked, feeling confused.
When the purple light entered Gu Hai's body, the blue light in the pool intensified.
"Hey?" Venerable Lian Sheng also looked at Gu Hai in shock.
"Venerable, what's wrong?" Gu Hai asked, feeling confused.
"Purple light? Is this Spiritual Progenitor? "Venerable Lian Sheng exclaimed.
"What is Spiritual Progenitor?" Everyone looked at Venerable Lian Sheng in confusion.
"The most primitive Spiritual Energy is called Spiritual Progenitor. When a portion of Spiritual Progenitor is mixed with water, it will turn into water-attributed Spiritual Energy. When it is mixed with earth-attributed Spiritual Energy, it will turn into earth-attributed Spiritual Energy. When it is mixed with an aura, it will turn into a Spiritual Energy. However, why are you absorbing only Spiritual Progenitor? What kind of Cultivation Technique is this? "Venerable Lian Sheng asked, feeling surprised.
Gu Hai felt slightly stunned. Then, he did not hide anything, telling Venerable Lian Sheng about his difficulties in cultivation.
"External cultivation? No wonder! No wonder you can only absorb one percent of the Spiritual Energy of others. Even when you broke through to the Innate Realm, you had to spend so many spirit stones. It turns out that your body only absorbs primitive Spiritual Energy. This is because you cultivate external cultivation. The source of your Veritable Energy is the purest Spiritual Progenitor squeezed out by your physical body. In the future, you can only absorb Spiritual Progenitor! "Venerable Lian Sheng appeared enlightened. As he looked at Gu Hai, envy flashed in his eyes.
"Venerable, is my physique good or bad?" Gu Hai asked out of curiosity.
"It is both good and bad. The bad thing is that cultivation is difficult. Every step is difficult, and Spiritual Progenitor is rare. Even one out of one hundred portions of Spiritual Energy is hard to find. Your cultivation is destined to be difficult. Fortunately, your foundation is firmer than anyone else's. Now, I finally understand why he crippled his cultivation back then and started cultivating external cultivation again, "Venerable Lian Sheng sighed.
"Oh? Who is it? "Gu Hai asked in surprise. There was someone else like him.
"The father of your Elite Hall's Hall Master!" Venerable Lian Sheng said with a solemn expression.
"Oh? Long Wanqing's father? "Gu Hai's expression changed.
"Long Wanqing? What? Isn't the Elite Hall Master her mother? Long Wanqing's maternal grandfather cultivated external cultivation back then. However, how did Long Wanqing become the hall master? "Venerable Lian Sheng said in surprise.
"It seems that the hall master's mother passed away. We are here to search for the Unborn Man. I wonder if Venerable has heard of him before?" Gu Hai immediately asked.
"Oh?" Venerable Lian Sheng frowned.
"Venerable knows of him?" Gu Hai asked out of curiosity.
"I know of this person. However, I did not know that he was in the Innate Puzzle World. As for his exact location, I do not know. However, this person … Hah! If you see him, go and take a look for yourself. This person is not simple!"
Venerable Lian Sheng shook his head. "Right!" Gu Hai nodded.
As Gu Hai absorbed the Spiritual Progenitor in the pool, it seemed like there was a small hole at the bottom of the pool that led to an underground spring. Boundless Spiritual Energy poured in. As Gu Hai absorbed the Spiritual Progenitor, he triggered more water-attributed Spiritual Energy. The blue light in the pool intensified.
"Division Master Gu, I will take one. Later, I will send my consciousness to the bottom of the pool to investigate. As long as I do not wake up, do not disturb me, "Venerable Lian Sheng said.
"Good! Venerable, don't worry! "Gu Hai nodded.
Venerable Lian Sheng nodded. With a flip of his hand, the Buddhist monk staff in his hand suddenly disappeared. Venerable Lian Sheng slowly stepped into a small pool and pressed his palms together. Then, he sat down cross-legged, leaving only his head above the water. Then, he gently closed his eyes and remained motionless.
"Chen Tianshan, Gao Xianzhi, the two of you take one pool. Xiaorou will take one for me. We can use this Spiritual Energy to treat our injuries," Gu Hai instructed.
"Yes, Division Master!" Chen Tianshan could not wait.
"Wait!" Gu Hai suddenly called out.
"Huh?"
"Chen Tianshan, go out with Gao Xianzhi and hide the cave entrance!" Gu Hai instructed.
"Right, I nearly forgot!" Chen Tianshan immediately smiled.
The two quickly went to the cave entrance and wiped away the footprints in the surroundings. Then, they used a large number of scorched tree branches to cover the entrance, preventing others from discovering anything strange.
Aside from Venerable Lian Sheng sitting in the pool in his clothes, Gu Hai and the others did not notice.
Gu Hai, Gao Xianzhi, and Chen Tianshan removed their outer clothes, leaving only their underwear. Then, they sat cross-legged and bathed in the spirit spring.
Xiaorou seemed to be very fond of the water-attributed Spiritual Energy. At this moment, she swam beside Gu Hai, doing her best to absorb this blue Spiritual Energy.
For a time, the cave was quiet as everyone was receiving the baptism of the Spirit Spring.
Outside the cave, Carefree Valley also fell silent. However, the silence did not last long. About six hours later, Carefree Valley suddenly fell silent.
"Ah! Save me! Animal spirits! Animal spirits! Save me! Senior Brother!"
"Quick, run! Animal spirits are chasing us! There are so many animal spirits!"
"That's not right. These animal spirits are not trying to kill us. They are chasing us here. Why are they chasing us here?!"
"Ah! It's over! It's over! It's over! Is it this valley?"
"They are here for revenge. Save me! They are here for revenge!"
…
…
…
Startled cries rang out in the valley. Countless spirit beasts chased the outsiders who barged into the northern region of the Innate Puzzle World to this place. Amid the panic, the outsiders who had started a massacre in the past met again.
A great sense of panic filled everyone's hearts.
