Ball Ball Cultivation

Qiuqiu woke up in a gray hall. There was no sign of life around. He first observed the entire hall. There were several piles of bones, some newer and some older. The older piles had been weathered clean and were just bones. They were probably thousands of years old. There were only two new piles, each containing the bones of more than ten people. The robes on the mummies had lost their precious luster and would turn into ashes with just a breeze.

A closer look revealed that some of the finger bones were still attached with storage rings. Qiuqiu didn't dare to act rashly and tried to contact the space, but he couldn't get in, nor could he release Bai Yi and the others. He could only contact Huahua through the soul contract, which was a bad situation.

Qiuqiu was helpless. The hall was covered with ancient seal runes, which he couldn't even understand. He could only move freely in the hall. He could sense that the spiritual energy was extremely thin. He couldn't use his spiritual power and consciousness. He was curious about the place where no spiritual energy was.

Neither the storage bag nor the storage ring on his body could be opened, and the space was completely blocked. It seemed that this place was not simple and it was impossible to set up a formation. Qiuqiu could only sit cross-legged on the spot to recover his strength.

The lightning eel struggled to get into the hole, but found nothing. It immediately released the sturgeon and searched carefully. There was still some residual breath, so it had no choice but to capture a little bit of the breath and seal it up for the task. After the sturgeon searched without success, it marked the scene and summoned some unintelligent fish to block off and protect the scene. It left the sturgeon behind to continue searching before leaving.

After returning, he and Tiger Shark reconciled their views. The next afternoon, when the master returned, Tiger Shark and Lightning Eel immediately greeted him. The eel reported and apologized: "We failed to guard the Mildly Warm Heavy Water Spring. Please punish us, Master."

Xuan Ming's originally good mood suddenly turned sour and he asked seriously, "What's going on?"

The Lightning Eel reported, "Since the Master left, we've both been diligently carrying out our guard duties. Even if one of us were to leave temporarily, the other would have stayed at our post. Furthermore, there's a barrier array set up by the Master, and it's impossible to enter without a spell or a pass. But yesterday morning, a young cultivator escaped from within. His cultivation wasn't high, and he ran very fast. I tracked him all the way, but I could only catch a glimpse of his presence. He disappeared into a stone hole in the Black Stone Forest maze, leaving Sturgeon there to continue the search. My men didn't enter the spring for a thorough inspection, but only made a cursory observation, and found a slight decrease in the slightly warm heavy water." With that, the two demons knelt and apologized.

Xuan Ming didn't say anything more and immediately went into his "bedroom" and took a look around with warm heavy water. This was where he practiced and slept every day. Isn't it a bedroom? This was amazing. There was an illusion array on it!

He waved his hand to withdraw the illusion array, and a lot of his light silver lotus was also destroyed. After careful inspection, the aura was almost dissipated. He released his spiritual sense to look for clues, and actually found a few white tiger hairs, human hairs, and even bird feathers.

Whose conspiracy is this? It’s not enough that he has caused chaos to the Tiger Clan, now he is messing with the Sea Clan. It seems that he wants to cause a war between monsters. This time, he has involved the Feather Clan, the Tiger Clan, the Human Clan, and our Sea Clan. This makes people suspect that the intentions of the Dragon Clan are too obvious.

The Centennial Mount Everest Conference is still a few years away, and they're already making small moves to provoke a war between humans and demons. Their intentions are clear, and they're not just about the Tiger and Fox tribes. While the demon tribe leaders are still here, we should meet again to discuss the next step. Once we've figured it out, activate the Divine Beast Secret Technique, contact the tribe leaders, and return to the Tiger Tribe to discuss the demon tribe's survival plan.

Xuan Ming: You actually sneaked into my lair? This is a naked provocation. The formation is completely intact. You took some of the slightly warm heavy water spring and the slight silver lotus just to provoke me. You didn't hurt any bones, nor did you wantonly destroy the overall existence environment of the spiritual spring. You must just want to provoke me, Xuan Ming. Am I such a cool-headed beast!?

Humph, luckily I was smart and could use the white tiger fur and feathers to find those two families who had bad luck. My mood after having my bath water stolen suddenly brightened up. This is: if you are unhappy, then I am happy!

What needs to be investigated must be investigated. After that, we went to the hole where the sturgeon was tracking and found traces of space fluctuations of one-time one-way transmission. Whether it is a teleportation array or a teleportation talisman, these are the means of the human race. It seems that the situation is very serious.

He immediately contacted the Feather Tribe and the Dragon Tribe, then returned to the Tiger Tribe to discuss matters, this time with urgency. Within a day, they all met again, waiting for Xuanming to explain.

Xuan Ming first took out a few white tiger hairs and a few feathers and placed them in front of everyone, then handed them to Bai Ran and the Feather Clan leader Zhu Man respectively.

He explained, "As soon as I got back this time, the guards reported that the place where I usually practice and rest was visited by thieves. The treasures stolen were enough to arouse anger, but not enough to cause serious damage. I found these two items at the scene, as well as traces of formations and hair left by humans."

"We were chasing after the little thief. On the surface, he was just a human cub who had just established his foundation. We originally wanted to capture him alive and then make him disappear completely in the Black Water Maze."

Having said this, he looked at the lack of reaction from the crowd and continued, "This situation may seem insignificant on the surface, but it's terrifying if you think about it carefully. Imagine if I were very angry after seeing the evidence left at the scene, would I secretly unite with the innocent Jiaolong Clan and fight against you, the Feather Clan and the Tiger Clan? After all, both of you have teamed up to bully my family. If the Jiaolong Clan doesn't unite with me, I will also secretly attack you. In the end, the three of us will fight to the death, with similar losses and expenditures. The Jiaolong Clan will just watch the fun. At this time, the three of us will suspect that the Jiaolong Clan is instigating discord and wants to dominate alone. In order to protect ourselves, the three of us will definitely unite to resist the Jiaolong Clan. No matter how you look at it, it's the result of the chaos among the demon clan!"

Everyone had been indifferent just now, but after hearing Xuanming's analysis of the future, they were horrified. Their faces became more solemn. After all, the Xuanwu clan was indeed good at deduction.

Xuan Ming directly asked Zhu Man, "You, the Feather Clan, are well-informed. Is it because the human race hasn't ascended in thousands of years that they can't wait and are plotting a war between humans and demons?"

Once this bombshell was dropped, everyone came to their senses and realized that the internal strife among the demon tribe was the perfect opportunity for foreign invasion. This was truly an accurate analysis!

Then Zhu Man heard him say, "Of the four major sects of human cultivation, the monks at Leiyin Temple are fine, the Taixu Sect is relatively stable; the Tianyan Sect, with a lineage of diviners, seems to have sensed a new opportunity and is waiting, so there won't be any chaos; as for the Qingyun Sect, several of its supreme elders are nearing the end of their lives, and the situation isn't stable. I haven't heard of a war between immortals and demons, but your speculation makes sense. This feather is indeed from the Feather Clan, a clan I'm completely unfamiliar with, so it's possible it's been contracted by the human race."

Bai Ran also spoke up: "This is the hair of a young tiger. It's probably not from the tribe. It's either a wandering creature or one that has been contracted by humans. I can't tell, but it has good potential and should be well raised!"

The Jiaolong clan leader said: "Let's go back and check everything out. Don't be fooled. Don't notify those junior clan leaders who didn't come. Zhu Man will investigate secretly. If we need to take action, tell me. Whether it's in the sea or on land, we dragons are not afraid!"

Three days later, Qiuqiu circled the hall countless times, unable to find a way out. He felt that the formations and seals here were not from this world, and beyond his comprehension. He had wanted to check on the remains of several people, but was afraid of being possessed. Gradually, he began to guess the cause of their death.

After a few more days, even though Qiuqiu was a chaotic spirit, the spiritual energy he passively absorbed could not meet the body's needs. He would either have to seal himself or collapse and die.

It felt like a massive amount of spiritual energy was being drawn into the formation, maintaining the seal, and even my own spiritual energy was being absorbed. Chaos Spirits, so close to nature, could even attract small spirits like the little starfish. This showed how powerful these spirits were. Even so, they could still be absorbed back into the formation, demonstrating just how powerful it was!

Ten days later, the weak Qiuqiu realized that the formation was too powerful and there could be no souls waiting to take over. He saw that there was no trace of the bones around him, only a little ashes on the ground, and knew that all the energy had been absorbed by the formation.

Qiuqiu walked over slowly, holding the sword of Chris in his hand, and slowly picked up the bones beside him. When he picked up the skeleton of a man in a blue robe, the storage ring on his finger bone exploded, and the things inside were scattered in a pile. Seeing that the things inside were intact, he knew that the storage ring was of high grade, but it collapsed and exploded due to long-term loss of spiritual nourishment.

But the things inside are still intact. Coming here, I can't even open the space. This time, the storage ring exploded and opened, which is a great opportunity for me.

He searched one by one for items that might be useful to him, and finally found half a bottle of Qigong pills and ate them. Then he checked them one by one. Among the fourth and fifth level pills, talismans, and formation plates, only the pills were of some use.

There are also various spiritual plants and refining materials. Most of the spiritual stones are of high quality, with a few of medium and low quality, and there are also two top-quality spiritual stones.

He thought that if he could get out alive, he would be rich! Then he found some miscellaneous things, and in his persistent search, he finally found a useful thing - the Boundary Breaking Talisman.

Qiuqiu had only read records about the Boundary Breaking Talisman, but had never seen the real thing. It had already become extinct in the lower realm, and the occasional legends were all obtained from some ancient ruins. Now the technique of refining the Boundary Breaking Talisman had been lost!

Qiuqiu studied it carefully, wanting to learn more, but he felt dizzy and dizzy, a testament to the rune's power. The only thing left was a delicate plaque, a jade-like object that looked neither gold nor jade. It bore the Duobao Pavilion logo, unlike his own VIP badge. Could it be a premium membership?

A piece of animal skin fell out of Bai Gu's blue robes, revealing it to be an ancient treasure map, presumably the map leading to this place. They weren't teleported from the same place as Qiuqiu, but had found this palace directly and were actively absorbed in at the palace gate!

Even though she got the boundary-breaking talisman, it was still a problem if she didn't have spiritual power to activate it. Qiuqiu used the existing materials to set up multiple layers of spirit gathering arrays and isolation arrays. Since it was the array in the hall that isolated Qiuqiu from the space, she used one array to break the array and created an array within an array. After the superposition of multiple layers of isolation arrays and spirit gathering arrays, it was still effective. She contacted Huahua and quickly explained the current situation. She didn't know how long the isolation array she had set up could last.

Huahua: "Hurry up and use the top-grade spirit stone to activate the Boundary Breaking Talisman. The suppression outside is even greater. When you use the Boundary Breaking Talisman to leave here, release your spiritual sense. When you leave the hall, I will use the power of space to take this palace into space. This is a magical weapon with a spirit. I can't sense its level right now, but it's very high. We are inside, suppressing the soul contract between you and me, leaving no room for resistance. The space cannot be opened, and the nine-layer isolation array offsets the spatial suppression of the hall. We can only communicate briefly. Even I can't escape by suppressing it. It must be more powerful than me."
