The pillars behind those cultivators were covered with mysterious runes. Every once in a while, those runes would suddenly flash with a red light.
Every time the red light flashed, those cultivators would tremble and let out a soft groan from their mouths and noses. Their faces would become even paler and their bodies would become thinner.
The dark red liquid in the small pool would emit a few bubbles as the red light flashed.
The Shaman King stared at the small pond for a while, then went around the few pillars and cultivators to inspect them. After confirming that there were no problems, he walked to a corner of the cave and casually sat cross-legged on a jet-black rock.
He waved his sleeves in front of him. Although there was nothing in front of him, this top powerhouse of Heavenly Saint Island narrowed his eyes and looked very serious.
Then, the Shaman King began to cast various spells and divine abilities, but they could only let him see the blurry image of the Primal Chaos Spectrum. He could not force the Primal Chaos Spectrum to appear, let alone threaten Xiao Lingyu who was hiding in the Primal Chaos Spectrum.
The Shaman King's expression became more and more unsightly, while Xiao Lingyu became more and more relaxed.
At first, Xiao Lingyu was worried that it would not be safe for him to hide in the Primal Chaos Spectrum. After all, the Shaman King was a top powerhouse of Heavenly Saint Island and might have some heaven-defying methods. However, now that he saw the Shaman King's helpless look, he was full of confidence in the Primal Chaos Spectrum.
"Little friend, you should be able to hear me, right?"
The Shaman King said to the empty space in front of him, "I have no intention of making things difficult for you. You can come out and talk to me. It doesn't feel good to be trapped all the time."
Unfortunately, Xiao Lingyu could indeed see outside and see the Shaman King talking, but he could not hear the Shaman King's voice. He could only judge what the Shaman King was saying by the shape of his lips. However, because he was not familiar with the Shaman King's way of speaking, he could not make an accurate judgment.
Xiao Lingyu could also guess that the Shaman King was trying to trick him out, but he naturally would not pay attention to it.
The Shaman King was not the Son of Heaven. Moreover, according to legend, the two of them were completely different representatives of cultivators.
The Son of Heaven was a virtuous person who was benevolent and had a high realm. On the other hand, the Shaman King was murderous, ruthless, and extremely vicious.
Facing the Shaman King, Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to take any chances.
The Shaman King said a few words and found that there was no movement in front of him. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times, and he seemed to be very angry.
"Hmph! Then you can hide in there forever! "
The Shaman King lost his patience. He stood up straight and went to another corner of the cave.
Facing one of the stone walls of the cave, the Mage King started chanting again and forming hand seals.
Not long after, the stone wall rippled strangely and revealed another light door. He wrapped the Primal Chaos Scripture in his sleeve and entered the light door.
Behind the light door was no longer a cave. Instead, it was a regular secret room with relatively straight walls.
The layout of this secret room was very simple. Other than a piece of dark red stone, there was nothing else.
However, the four walls of the secret room were filled with strange and mysterious runes.
The Shaman King sat cross-legged on the dark red stone and then let go of his sleeve again. After confirming that the Primal Chaos Scripture had been brought into the secret room with a secret method, he sneered and closed his eyes.
Through the light door of the Primal Chaos Scripture, Xiao Lingyu could clearly see the Shaman King in the secret room outside.
The Shaman King gradually entered a state of cultivation. He didn't move and his aura didn't change. His whole body seemed to be silent. However, Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to come out of the Primal Chaos Scripture.
"This old guy seems to want to waste time with me."
"Alas, Shen Gongbao, that guy. Whoever meets him is really unlucky!"
Xiao Lingyu sighed bitterly and released a doppelganger. He let the doppelganger keep an eye on the Shaman King outside while he went to find his two wives.
What made Xiao Lingyu depressed was that after listening to his advice last time, Qing Xuan and Miaoying really worked hard to create the most suitable method for themselves. Even Ling 'er, who usually only needed to devour infinitely, went into seclusion to comprehend. Only the lazier Xiao Bing was lying on the equally lazy foodie and sleeping.
Xiao Lingyu returned to the light door in a depressed mood. He lay down flat and put his hands behind his head. Suddenly, he thought, "This Nine Revolution Chaos Formula can be considered to have reached the end of the ninth revolution. However, the ninth revolution can only be compared to the Reaching Heaven Realm. The peak is not the Longevity Realm. Then, how should I cultivate in the future?"
At present, there was an evil spirit sleeping in his body. There was only one way in front of Xiao Lingyu, and that was to advance to the Longevity Realm before the evil spirit woke up.
However, the cultivation method he practiced now didn't have a method to reach the Longevity Realm. Then, Xiao Lingyu only had two choices. One was to give up the Nine Revolution Chaos Formula he practiced and find a method to cultivate to the Longevity Realm. The other was to deduce a more powerful realm after the ninth revolution of the Nine Revolution Chaos Formula, such as the tenth revolution.
The first choice seemed difficult. In fact, for Xiao Lingyu who had the Primal Chaos Scripture, it wasn't difficult. With the Primal Chaos Scripture, he didn't lack time. Moreover, he could use his own wealth to quickly gather a lot of cultivation resources. It wouldn't be too difficult to cultivate to the Reaching Heaven Realm in one go.
Moreover, it wouldn't be difficult to find a method to cultivate to the Longevity Realm. At least, there were too many such methods on the Heavenly Saint Island.
The second choice was more challenging and difficult. The Nine Revolution Chaos Formula was a very profound method. Although it wasn't impossible to seek a breakthrough on the foundation of the ninth revolution, it still required a person with extremely high comprehension ability to complete it.
The breakthrough of each revolution of the Nine Revolution Chaos Formula would allow the cultivator to make great progress. The further one progressed, the greater the gap between each revolution. If one wanted to create the tenth revolution after the ninth revolution, then the tenth revolution had to follow the cultivation method and characteristics of the previous nine revolutions. At the same time, it had to have a great leap and be powerful.
"Even if I want to create the tenth revolution, I have to first reach the ninth revolution. The reason why the ancestors of this lineage didn't create the tenth revolution is probably because they didn't cultivate to the ninth revolution."
Xiao Lingyu shook his head and tossed the matter of creating a cultivation technique to the back of his mind.
Xiao Lingyu didn't know how many years had passed in the Primal Chaos Scripture. He didn't know how many years had passed in the outside world.
Suddenly, one day, Xiao Lingyu's doppelganger, who was staring outside, reminded him. Xiao Lingyu stood up and looked outside the light door.
The Shaman King had already left the secret room and was nowhere to be found.
"He's probably deliberately luring me out."
Xiao Lingyu hesitated and didn't leave the Primal Chaos Scripture.
After waiting for a while, the Shaman King finally returned to the secret room. However, he didn't return alone. Instead, he brought a woman with him.
What Xiao Lingyu didn't expect was that the woman brought by the Shaman King was actually Yueru, who came from the narrow Divine Realm.
"She actually came to Skyreach Sacred Island too!" Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised.
Yueru's fate was very bumpy. It could even be said that it was a tragedy. Her parents died when she was young. Then, she became a nameless medicine master in the Linggu Valley. It wasn't easy for her to meet someone worthy of her affection, but she was rejected when she confessed her love. Not long after her wedding, her husband died. Then, she obtained the Fiend Body and was kidnapped by the Night Demons.
Now, she somehow came to Skyreach Sacred Island and fell into the hands of the ruthless Shaman King.
However, through the light door in the Primal Chaos Scripture, Xiao Lingyu could see that the Shaman King seemed to treat Yueru well. In front of Yueru, the Shaman King had a warm expression, as if he was a senior.
Xiao Lingyu then thought of something. Yueru's Fiend Body was of the same dark attribute as the Shaman King's witchcraft. Moreover, there were many similarities between them, and they could even complement each other. The Shaman King had probably invited Yueru here because of this.
"This old guy either wants to take advantage of the time before he breaks through to the Immortal Realm to find a successor, or he has some other bad intentions."
Xiao Lingyu became more spirited. He withdrew his doppelganger and personally looked outside.
He was thinking, if the Shaman King wanted to harm Yueru, what should he do? If he went out to help, he was afraid that even he would be implicated. If he didn't go out, could it be that he had to watch as Yueru was schemed against?
The Shaman King didn't want to harm Yueru. From the looks of it, he was still very attentively guiding Yueru in her cultivation. He even frequently took out high-quality materials for Yueru to use for her cultivation. He was completely like a master who was willing to teach her everything.
"If the Shaman King is truly sincere in teaching Yueru, it'll be an opportunity for Yueru," Xiao Lingyu thought.
Although Yueru had a Fiend Body, she was still a highly talented pharmacist. In this secret room, she often took out her medicinal cauldron to refine pills. Because of the restriction of the light door, Xiao Lingyu couldn't see the grade of the pills Yueru refined. He also didn't know what level Yueru had improved on the path of medicine refinement.
The Shaman King often left this secret room, but Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to be sure that the old man wasn't plotting against her. He still didn't dare to go out.
After waiting for many years, the Shaman King once again returned to this secret room after leaving for several hundred years. However, when he returned, he appeared very weak. His face was pale, as if he had suffered heavy injuries.
After returning to the secret room, the Shaman King said a few words to Yueru. Then, he sat down to meditate in seclusion.
"This old man must have deliberately made himself look like this to trick me into going out."
Xiao Lingyu remained unmoved.
This time, the Shaman King only used a few months to meditate and recover. However, his expression didn't change much.
Once a top expert like the Shaman King was injured, it would be very difficult for him to recover.
After waking up, the Shaman King took out a rather large jade bottle. Inside the jade bottle was a strange-looking brownish-red heart that was still beating.
The Shaman King opened the jade bottle's restriction. The heart jumped out of the jade bottle. However, it seemed to be very intelligent and wanted to escape.
Unfortunately, even though the heart was extremely fast, it couldn't break through the secret room's stone wall.
