I was almost eaten at the beginning, luckily I was able to transfer the negative status

After returning to his bedroom.

Zhou Heng immediately took out the small porcelain bottle that Sun Lei had just given him from his pocket and quickly checked how many of the human pills he had been longing for were inside.

He used the source energy to probe into the inner space of the porcelain bottle. In just a moment, he knew exactly how many human pills were stored in it.

The number of human pills is not too large, only 36,000 in total. If the standard amount is 100 pills per day, it just corresponds to the 360 ​​days of entering the mysterious Taoist world.

"It just happened to be the time to enter the Mysterious Dao Realm. My cheap master's calculations were truly accurate. He didn't give me a single extra coin. I don't know whether to call him generous or stingy."

I was secretly complaining in my heart.

Zhou Heng carefully put the porcelain bottle back into his pocket.

Now his cheap master is still in the courtyard. For safety reasons, he does not plan to take pills as recklessly as before. He can only make plans after reaching the so-called mysterious Taoist world.

……

The next day.

The hour of Yin is approaching.

At Sun Lei's call, Zhou Heng and Sun Yaozu came to the main hall again, and were then taken by Sun Lei to a rather spacious hall.

At this moment, hundreds of people had already gathered in this hall. They were all elders and disciples of the Qianling Sect who had reached the Soul Refining and Returning to Void Realm. Among them were Liao Wenqing and Ji Zhilan, whom Zhou Heng knew. They had obviously obtained the quota with the help of their head master.

As for those ordinary disciples... in this evil world where the relationship is as important as the sky, they are naturally not worthy of such a precious opportunity, and they don't even have the qualifications to know about this matter.

Time passed by minute by minute.

From time to time, someone like Sun Lei would move here with his disciples.

However, even though there were hundreds of people gathered in the hall, everyone inside was still very quiet. When the elders who knew each other met, they just nodded in greeting and had no intention of chatting.

at last.

It's Yin time.

A figure suddenly appeared on the only seat in the front of the hall, as if he had been sitting there all the time.

The moment the figure appeared, many elders in the hall immediately pulled their disciples or descendants to pay homage, shouting:

"Greetings to Ancestor Yunxi."

"Get up."

Qing Yunxi, who was sitting on the chair, spoke lightly, and there was no trace of joy, anger, sorrow or happiness in his tone.

Wait until everyone stands up.

Qing Yunxi continued to speak in a calm and indifferent voice:

"During this trip to the Mysterious Dao Realm, you should all be aware of the key points.

However, I still want to remind you.

Once you reach the mysterious Taoist world, you will not truly die, nor will your mind be controlled by anyone.

Therefore, you must not reveal a single word about the affairs of our world.

After arriving in the mysterious Taoist world, you can make up your own identity, name, etc. at will.

Well, that's all I have to say. Without further ado, please don't resist. I will now take you into my Dantian and send you to the Mysterious Dao Realm."

talking.

Without waiting for anyone to respond, Qing Yunxi waved his hand.

In an instant, all 360 people in the hall disappeared without a single one left.

Looking at the negative status column on the system panel, an entry called [Dantian Binding] quietly appeared.

Zhou Heng found that he had appeared in an area covered with dense forests. Looking up, he could see a figure with a blood-red lotus on its head floating under a shield of light.

The figure with the blood lotus on the head was none other than Qing Yunxi's Dharmakāya. Strictly speaking, after a cultivator has cultivated to the stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void, the Dharmakāya is his true body, and the physical body left in reality is merely an anchor between him and reality.

When a cultivator in the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void fights with others, he will not truly die unless the other party breaks into his dantian and completely destroys his Dharma image. He can rebuild his body in an instant with extremely low consumption.

"Don't move, the passage to the mysterious world will soon appear."

The figure with the blood lotus on his head opened his mouth slightly, and at the same time, the blood lotus on his head quickly bloomed with an incomparably bright blood-red light.

Soon, an invisible force enveloped everyone again.

Followed by.

I saw the negative term [Dantian Binding] disappear naturally.

Zhou Heng found himself in a vast white snowfield again. Apart from the thick ice and snow, there was no human figure around him.

"Is this the mysterious world?"

Looking at the deserted snowy scene around.

Zhou Heng couldn't help but feel overjoyed and secretly relieved.

The good news is that what he wants most right now is to have no one around him, so that he can retreat and take human pills more safely.

Fortunately, he had successfully mastered the art of insect master and could raise insects in his internal organs, which had turned into an insect nest.

Otherwise, if he continued to bring bugs with him as before, then in this icy and snowy environment, within a few days, all the precious bugs he used to carry the negative status would surely be gone, and he would be in trouble.

"Fortunately, I had foresight. I wonder if 36,000 human pills can improve the quality of my spiritual roots to the point where they can no longer be improved. I hope so."

While feeling and thinking.

Zhou Heng did not waste time looking for a hiding place in this vast ice field. He just sat down and started eating human pills.

This ice field is magical.

Based on the speed of digesting two human pills in one minute, Zhou Heng had been taking human pills for a full twenty-four hours, but there was no sign of darkness on the ice field. Although there was no sun in the sky, it was always white.

that's it.

As time goes by.

When he had eaten more than four thousand human pills.

Zhou Heng discovered that a negative entry, [Spiritual Root Upper Limit Blocked], had quietly appeared on the system panel.

"Good boy, no wonder the cultivators in the evil world can refine so many human pills, but the highest level of spiritual roots are only purple. It turns out that there is this thing that hinders them."

Look at these new negative entries.

Zhou Heng was not surprised but happy, and transferred the entry out without thinking.

In an instant, his purple spiritual root, which seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, quickly changed and eventually turned into an incomparably dazzling colorful spiritual root.

In addition, at the moment when the colorful spiritual root appeared, some changes also occurred in his dantian.

Originally, his Dantian was a continent with a semicircular light shield upside down on it. Now, the semicircular light shield has actually formed a complete sphere, covering the upper and lower surfaces of the entire Dantian continent.

See this situation.

Zhou Heng was no longer in a hurry to try out the efficiency of the colorful spiritual root in refining essence into qi, but continued to eat the remaining human pills.
