After washing his body, he also washed his clothes in the hot spring. After washing, Zhong Shan found that there was a big stone beside the hot spring, which seemed to be specially used to dry his clothes.
On the big stone, it was slightly warm. Perhaps, even if the clothes were not dried by the sun, they would be dried by the big stone.
In the hot spring, Zhong Shan felt a strong heat. Feeling the heat entering his body, Zhong Shan had a sudden impulse to dive down. Would the bottom be hotter?
At the Xiantian stage, one could carry out internal breathing and hold their breath for a long time at the bottom of the water. Moreover, Zhong Shan also knew the [Turtle Breathing Technique], so diving for Zhong Shan was too easy.
Slowly swimming to the center of the hot spring, Zhong Shan quickly sank to the bottom. The deeper he went, the higher the temperature of the water, and small bubbles emerged from the bottom.
Zhong Shan continued to dive down, and after diving for a while, he finally felt the temperature of the boiling water, 100 degrees Celsius.
However, Zhong Shan was now at the Xiantian stage, and in the big kiln, he was not afraid at all, so why would he be afraid of this high temperature? Continuing to dive, the temperature of the water did not change, but slowly, Zhong Shan felt something hotter.
Fire attribute Lingqi, which touched his body, was like a fire burning his body. Although only a trace of it occasionally appeared, but Zhong Shan was sure that the deeper he went, the more this kind of fire attribute Lingqi would appear.
Because, this trace of fire attribute Lingqi made Zhong Shan, who practiced the [Great Yang Divine Exercise], suddenly feel refreshed. Yes, it was this high temperature, even higher than the temperature in the kiln. Only by absorbing, could he easily break through.
Going down, when the fire attribute Lingqi was so dense that he could feel it every breath, Zhong Shan felt that the pores of his whole body were boiling. Now, he was at the peak of the Xiantian first stage, and if he continued to absorb, he would be able to break through.
If there was a quiet room here, how good it would be. Here, he could not practice very well.
Just as Zhong Shan was feeling disappointed, Zhong Shan suddenly saw a hole at the bottom of the water. There was a faint red light coming from the hole.
The deeper they went, the darker the bottom became. This sudden red light quickly attracted Zhong Shan's attention.
Looking at the red light source, Zhong Shan was shocked. He slowly approached it. The hole could only fit one person at a time.
Zhong Shan slowly dived in. The deeper he dived, the brighter the red light became. Moreover, there was more fire element spiritual energy. Zhong Shan happily absorbed the fire-elemental spiritual energy.
Zhong Shan suppressed the excitement in his heart, because Zhong Shan thought of a term, Heavenly Abode. Could this be a Heavenly Abode?
After moving horizontally for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they finally passed through the passageway. There was a sea of red light here, and it was another passageway that led up and down. There was no longer anything below, including the hot spring from before. What about above?
Zhong Shan quickly swam upstream. After swimming for a while, he reached the surface.
"Hua ~ ~ ~"
Zhong Shan's head came out of the water.
Inside, there was a sea of red light. Zhong Shan saw that it was actually a completely sealed cave. There was only one entrance, and it was the passageway that he came from. On the other side of the cave was a platform. Zhong Shan quickly climbed up naked.
Zhong Shan climbed up the platform and looked at the source of the red light in the corner.
There was a plant with a black stem and two purple leaves. At the top of the plant, there was a red fruit the size of a fist.
The red fruit was the source of the red light. The red fruit emitted a large amount of red light. Moreover, there seemed to be flames burning around the red fruit. Zhong Shan knew that it was not flames, but spiritual energy. It was fire element spiritual energy. No wonder the fire element spiritual energy here was so dense.
Swallowing his saliva, Zhong Shan knew that he had found a treasure this time. Although he did not know the origin of this fiery red fruit, he could tell that it was definitely a top-notch item just from the aura it emitted.
Take out the spirit fruit? Zhong Shan did not dare to do so now. Swallow it? Even more so.
There was a large amount of fire element spiritual energy floating in the cave. His true energy was still very scarce.
Sitting cross-legged, Zhong Shan quickly practiced the Great Yang Divine Technique. Two hours later, Zhong Shan found that the cultivation speed of the Great Yang Divine Technique inside was more than ten times faster than in the kiln. Feeling the benefits of this place, Zhong Shan immediately decided that he would cultivate here in the future.
Looking at the flame fruit, Zhong Shan quickly jumped into the water and dived. Soon, he came out of the cave from the other side and came to the hot spring passageway.
He swam to the hot spring, took his clothes, Windchaser's Boots, broadsword, and some dry food, and dived again. He went to the passageway and entered the small cave.
This small grotto-heaven was temporarily named 'Flaming Fruit Grotto-Heaven' by Mount Zhong. He found a large stone and blocked the entrance to the hot spring. At least, he could not let the red light leak out.
Next, he went into seclusion to cultivate. If he was hungry, he would eat some dry food. If he was thirsty, he would drink some water.
The red light inside was mainly emitted by the fruit. The fire element spiritual energy had no color. Zhong Shan did not expect the spiritual energy to be dense enough to show color. He was satisfied to be able to cultivate here.
One month later.
"Ha ~ ~ ~ ~"
Zhong Shan roared and punched out with both fists. His fists carried a strong fiery-red murderous aura.
Xiantian Realm Second Stage.
Finally, after four months, he reached Xiantian Realm Second Stage.
Zhong Shan felt a strong sense of satisfaction in his eyes as he cultivated. Then, his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction again. Prince Lie Tian had reached the Nascent Soul Stage a long time ago, right? His eyes turned cold and he was determined to work hard again.
He had run out of dry food and had to go back to make more.
He looked at the flame fruit. Thanks to it, he jumped into the water.
When he dived out of the cave, he found a large stone and blocked the entrance. Then, he floated to the surface of the hot spring.
When he reached the surface of the lake, he dried his clothes with True Qi. Carrying the big saber, he rushed to the place where he came from a month ago.
On the way, he encountered demonic beasts. Zhong Shan did not dare to provoke the powerful ones. When he encountered a demonic beast of the same level as the lynx, Zhong Shan dealt with it once. This time, he did not use the Heavenly Scripture of the Red Phoenix nor the Sky Demon Reshaping Technique. Although he was covered in blood, he was obviously stronger than before.
Four months. On the fourth month, Zhong Shan reached Xiantian Realm Second Stage.
In the evening, he returned to his small courtyard with the lynx's body.
In the courtyard, Zhong Shan hung a small plaque, Waterside Pavilion.
He put down the lynx's body and looked at his vegetable garden. The rice and vegetables were all ripe.
After spending a day, Zhong Shan harvested all the vegetables and rice. After making some food, he continued to cultivate.
Another five days later, new vegetables were planted in the fields again. Zhong Shan was ready to head to the Flaming Fruit Cave again with the rations he had made in the past few days.
"Zhong Shan, you're back? How come I couldn't find you these days? "Tian Ling 'er's voice suddenly came from outside the house.
"You've collected the vegetables? I was going to take some back to eat. "Nan Batian's voice came again.
Frowning, Zhong Shan put away the dry food he prepared and walked out of the small courtyard.
"Ling 'er, Batian." Zhong Shan saw them and gently greeted them.
"Where have you been these days?" Tian Ling 'er asked.
"In the mountains, I fought with demonic beasts to hone my skills." Zhong Shan looked at them and frowned.
"No wonder I couldn't find you several times. I'm now in the Xiantian ninth stage, third generation third sister." Tian Ling 'er suddenly smiled.
"Did you have a breakthrough in the past month?" Nan Batian looked at Zhong Shan and asked.
"Xiantian second stage." Zhong Shan said honestly.
"Well, I'll fight with you when you reach the sixth stage. I can't fight with you now." Nan Batian smiled.
"Thank you." Zhong Shan said honestly.
"But, Zhong Shan, you have to work hard. I heard from father that someone has reached the third stage of Xiantian cultivation method." Tian Ling 'er immediately said.
"The third stage?" Zhong Shan frowned. There was someone more powerful than him?
"Yes, but this is normal. The first five stages of Xiantian cultivation method are the easiest to practice. The further you go, the harder it is. When I reached the Xiantian realm, it only took me two months to reach the third stage. My cultivation speed is the same as that of senior brother." Tian Ling 'er said proudly.
"Senior brother?" Zhong Shan frowned and looked at Tian Ling 'er.
"Senior brother is very powerful. After entering the Kai Yang Sect, he reached the sixth stage of Xiantian in the first year and formed Zhen Yuan. Then, it took him three years to reach the tenth stage of Xiantian and another two years to break through Xiantian and reach the Gold Core stage. Later, he was accepted as my father's eldest disciple and is now the strongest in the Gold Core stage." Tian Ling 'er proudly recalled her senior brother.
"No, it's not certain now. Snow Bamboo Peak's Sorrow Qing Si's cultivation speed is also very fast. Although she came to the Kai Yang Sect fifty years later than your senior brother, her cultivation speed is not weaker than his. Maybe she can reach the Nascent Soul stage faster than your senior brother." Nan Batian said.
Hearing Nan Batian's words, Tian Ling 'er pouted and said stubbornly, "Sister Qing Si is powerful, but senior brother is definitely stronger than her."
"Maybe." Nan Batian could only say helplessly.
"Wait a moment. I found some tea in the mountains some time ago. The taste is not bad. I'll give you some." Zhong Shan shook his head and said.
The two's conversation felt a little childish. Maybe he was old. Zhong Shan laughed at himself.
He brewed a pot of tea and brought it outside the small courtyard. There was a stone table outside the courtyard. No matter what, the two had helped him. Zhong Shan also gave himself a rare half-day break. He chatted with the two of them.
Then, from the conversation between the two, Zhong Shan also learned that Sorrow Qing Si was the eldest disciple of Snow Bamboo Peak Master Gu Mingzi. In the Kai Yang Sect, she was called the second generation's third senior sister. In the second generation, she was the third genius to reach the Gold Core stage.
Senior brother, called Tian Sha, was the first person in the second generation of the Kai Yang Sect. Tian Ling 'er worshipped senior brother very much, or it was more appropriate to say that she adored him. However, senior brother had always treated her as a little girl.
