I can gather experience beads

This day.

Cao Rui took a batch of newly refined Fire Lotus Pills and finally filled up the experience value of the experience beads.

Cao Rui clicked on the experience bead, and a purple torrent flowed around his body.

His magic power and spiritual awareness began to surge again, and Cao Rui successfully advanced to the eleventh level of Qi Refining Stage!

"My magic power has improved by 30%, and my spiritual awareness range has increased from 50 meters to 100 meters."

"The eleventh level of Qi Refining Stage is a realm that almost no cultivator can reach in today's world of immortal cultivation."

"After Zhang Mo failed in his attempt to take the foundation-building pill, he was only lucky enough to advance to the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage. This was enough to make him hard to find an opponent in the Qi Refining Stage."

"And I have advanced to the eleventh level of Qi Refining. Apart from the Foundation Establishment, no one should be able to check and balance me."

"It's possible to break into the cave of the ancient monk."

It took Cao Rui two or three days to adapt to his newly increased magic power.

Then he packed his storage bag and went to find Ye Yunyin to hand over the formation plate.

"Where are you going?"

"Have you taken the foundation-building pill?"

Ye Yunyin looked at Cao Rui with a worried look on his face. He could sense that Cao Rui's aura had improved a lot, but it was still a long way from the foundation-building stage.

The only conclusion is that Cao Rui failed to advance after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill.

In addition, Cao Rui is also an alchemist, so this trip out may be to look for materials for the foundation-building pill.

Cao Rui naturally had no way of explaining that he had not taken the foundation-building pill and that his cultivation level had increased because of his practice of the ancient Mingyu Gong.

Cao Rui said, "I should be back in a few days. I'll leave the market to you, Elder Ye."

Ye Yunyin finally nodded and took the small formation plate.

Cao Rui flew up on his sword and went to Danlingbao Pavilion to look for Sun Ming.

Arrived at Danlingbao Pavilion.

Sun Ming immediately contacted the head of Danlingbao Pavilion through the communication array.

The time when Cao Rui entered the inheritance cave was determined.

"The location of the inheritance cave is not in Yue Country, but in Xiao Country."

"It's more than 15,000 miles away from the city. You'll have to make a long trip, Old Cao." Sun Ming said.

Cao Rui nodded slightly. Xiao State? He hadn't been back to Xiao State for more than six years.

There are some old friends there.

This trip is a good opportunity to go back and take a look.

Sun Ming told Cao Rui the location of the inheritance cave.

Cao Rui reached out and gently patted the beast-taming bag at his waist. A black shadow flashed by, and Hei Yu appeared outside the window of Danlingbao Pavilion.

It chirped as if telling its owner how much it missed him.

Cao Rui smiled and touched Hei Yu's feathers, then climbed onto his back.

Under Sun Ming's envious gaze.

Heiyu let out a crisp cry, spread his wide wings, and flew high towards the southwest.

It was extremely fast, streaking across the sky like lightning.

As a second-level spiritual bird, Heiyu's flying speed is amazing.

Even if it flies at a constant speed, it can still fly five thousand miles a day.

Fifteen thousand miles. At this speed, it would only take three days to reach the destination.

......

Three days later, at noon, Cao Rui arrived at his destination.

Cao Rui stood on Heiyu's back and looked down. This was a place deep in the mountains.

The mountains are lush and green, and the trees are just ordinary trees, not spiritual trees.

This mountain range should have had spiritual veins in ancient times, but after the spiritual veins dried up, it gradually became deserted.

However, there are some "spiritual places" in such places - a small area where spiritual energy is preserved for various reasons. In such places, there are usually traces of spiritual medicines.

The Danlingbao Pavilion has a base outside this mountain range. On weekdays, cultivators go into the mountains to search for spiritual herbs, and they also purchase spiritual herbs collected by nearby mountain dwellers.

Previously, a cultivator from Danlingbao Pavilion went into the mountains to search for elixirs and found the trace of the inheritance cave.

Cao Rui made the black feather circle in the air.

Finally, it fell accurately in front of the stronghold set up by Danlingbao Pavilion in the mountains and forests.

This is a mansion that looks no different from an ordinary wealthy family's house, but Cao Rui can sense that there are a large number of forbidden formations set up around it.

After Cao Rui landed, many Qi-refining cultivators from Danlingbao Pavilion jumped out and stared at him vigilantly.

Although these people's cultivation was not high, they all had an expression of indifference and vigilance.

They held magical weapons tightly in their hands, as if ready to deal with any possible threats at any time.

"I think this person must be Master Cao!" At this time, a middle-aged cultivator with a mustache, who looked to be around forty years old, pushed aside the Qi-refining cultivator in front of him and walked over.

He was wearing a black robe, with a storage bag hanging around his waist, and a smile on his face.

Cao Rui nodded slightly: "I am Cao Rui."

"Haha, hearing about me is worse than meeting me in person. I am the current head of Danlingbao Pavilion, Zhao Tianshuang!"

Sun Ming had previously told Zhao Tianshuang about the characteristics of Cao Rui's spirit beast.

Therefore, the moment he saw Hei Yu, Zhao Tianshuang recognized Cao Rui's identity.

"It turns out to be Pavilion Master Zhao! I've long heard of your name!" Cao Rui also gave him enough face.

"No, no, compared to Fangzhu Cao, I am nothing. Danlingbao Pavilion and Lingshou Sect are also incomparable."

"Come on, it's still early to enter the inheritance cave, come in and have a cup of spiritual tea first!"

Zhao Tianshuang invited.

Cao Rui did not hesitate and followed him into a reception room at the Danlingbao Pavilion's base.

Zhao Tianshuang quickly made some spiritual tea for Cao Rui.

Cao Rui had also learned about Zhao Tianshuang's relevant information before.

He comes from a small family of immortal cultivators.

The family has passed down alchemy techniques and related knowledge.

His grandfather's generation started running Danling Baoge, which was initially just a small shop in the market town.

After three generations of hard work, Danlingbao Pavilion now has stores all over the southwestern cultivation world of Yunzhou, with more than twenty stores in the southwestern part of Yunzhou alone.

In recent years, it has also tried to expand to other places in Yunzhou, and has grown into a powerful business family in the world of immortal cultivation.

This Zhao Tianshuang is also an alchemist, and it is said that he is very good at alchemy.

Cao Rui chatted with Zhao Tianshuang for a few words.

Cao Rui began to ask about the main business of entering the inheritance cave this time: "Master Zhao, may I ask how many people are entering the inheritance cave this time? Who are the others?"

Zhao Tianshuang answered, "Only five people can enter the inheritance cave at a time, and each opening will consume the cave's spiritual power reserves."

"Therefore, I always wait until five people are gathered before I open the cave."

"But don't worry. You are the last one among the five to sign up this time. You don't have to wait too long. We just need to wait for the disciple from Miaoyin Temple to arrive at the scene, and then we can open the cultivation cave and enter it."

"The people who entered the inheritance cave with you this time include one person from Miaoyin Temple, two people from Yunshui Sect, and a casual cultivator."

Cao Rui nodded slightly. It was not surprising that the sect’s disciples appeared here.

In fact, after Zhao Tianshuang offered a sky-high entrance fee of one thousand spirit stones, most of the people who were able to continue to come here to explore the inheritance cave were disciples of the sect.
