Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

The Black Water Spirit has become quite powerful. Not to mention cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, even cultivators in the Spirit Transformation stage find it difficult to fully control it.

Therefore, after the spirit of the weapon finished speaking, Chen Yunhao could roughly guess the origin of the matter.

It must be that the Black Water Spirit ran into this spiritual stone mine on its own, and the Black Water Sect followed it.

No one would easily give up such an important spiritual object of heaven and earth. From this, we can understand why the Black Water Sect is determined to seize this mine even at the risk of offending Thunder Mountain.

After Chen Yunhao walked two or three miles deep into the mine tunnel, the ancient mirror in his dantian flashed and disappeared into the cliff above his head.

Chen Yunhao had no choice but to stay where he was and wait. After only three or five breaths, the ancient mirror returned with a flash of light.

Although Gu Jing didn't say another word, when Chen Tianhao knew that the problem had been solved, he turned around and walked back.

When he returned to the fork in the road, he saw that everyone was still waiting for him.

"Everyone, I'm just taking a look, please do as you please!"

Chen Yunhao had to do things completely, even if he was acting, he had to make it look more realistic. If he just turned around and left, wouldn't that make the Zuo family suspicious?

So he simply walked into a mine that was still being mined.

Not long after entering the mine, you can see spiritual stones of various sizes inlaid on the walls of the mine.

Most of the spirit stones here are low-grade, occasionally mixed with a few medium-grade spirit stones. Overall, the quality of the ore vein is average.

However, for a small family like the Zuo family, it is already very good. Having this mineral vein can allow their family to continue for hundreds of years without decline.

After satisfying his curiosity, Chen Yunhao simply took a quick look at the vein and left.

The people who came with Chen Yunhao were all confused, and on the way back, Chen Yunhao did not explain too much.

There's no way to explain it. I can't tell them that I got a huge advantage.

More than an hour later, everyone returned to Zuo's house and sat down again.

Chen Yunhao smiled, looked at Patriarch Zuo, and said.

"I know that Fellow Daoist Zuo has many questions in his mind, but this is just my guess. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zuo is willing to listen to what I have to say?"

Patriarch Zuo hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, please feel free to speak...!"

"Go to the Black Water Gate and tell them that they can temporarily lend the spirit stone mine to them for ten days. Only ten people are allowed in..."

"this……."

Now the head of the Zuo family was even more confused.

"It's fine to lend it to them for ten days, but what if the Black Water Gate takes it over and doesn't want to return it after ten days?"

"If they don't return after ten days, I'll go talk to my Senior Brother Qi Yang and I'll definitely help you drive out the Black Water Sect. But there's one thing: you can't tell anyone about this idea. It's me who suggested it..."

"Okay... I'll listen to Fellow Daoist Hu."

Patriarch Zuo thought about it, gritted his teeth and agreed.

It's not a big loss for their family. Even if they put ten people in there for ten days and let them mine as hard as they can, they won't be able to dig much.

The only thing that Patriarch Zuo was worried about was whether the Black Water Sect would agree; this was the key.

Chen Yunhao is only responsible for giving advice and will not take the initiative to show up.

The Zuo family arranged for someone to contact the Black Water Gate, and Chen Yunhao and others stayed there with peace of mind, waiting to see how the situation developed.

Two days later, the head of the Zuo family told Chen Yunhao a piece of news, and the Black Water Sect indeed agreed.

This was within Chen Yunhao's expectations, so he wasn't worried that the Black Water Sect wouldn't agree.

If the two families continue to drag things out as they have been doing, the Blackwater Clan will become even more anxious.

After all, the black water spirit will roam everywhere. If we delay for two more days, we may not even be able to find any trace of it.

As for the fact that the Black Water Sect entered the spirit stone mine and ultimately could not find the Black Water Spirit, it could not be blamed on the Zuo family.

Since the Black Water Gate agreed, the matter was accomplished. Chen Yunhao did not stay for long and went directly back to Squid Island.

Only Chen Yunhao knew the whole cause and effect of the whole incident. Not to mention the Zuo family, even the Heishuimen was confused.

Although this matter may cause the Zuo family to have some doubts about Chen Yunhao, so what? His strength and background are here!

After returning to Cuttlefish Island, Chen Yunhao went straight back to the underground cave.

There are still nearly two years before the end of his mission on the island. Apart from anything else, it is still possible to advance to the next level at the very least.

Before entering into seclusion, Chen Yunhao's consciousness entered the ancient mirror.

"Hey, Senior, you don't seem to have changed much this time?"

When he saw the weapon spirit again, Chen Yunhao found that he could only turn his neck, and there was no change from the last time they met.

"You know nothing... This Black Water Spirit can only help me recover some of my memories..."

The weapon spirit's strength was greatly reduced due to the injury, and even more than 90% of its memory was sealed.

After digesting this black water spirit, its memory can be restored by two points, just two points, not even one tenth.

Chen Yunhao smiled shamelessly. He had already figured out the spirit's temper and didn't take it seriously anymore.

Who cares? As long as the weapon spirit's strength improves, it means his strength has improved, and everyone is happy!

Chen Yunhao once again entered into meditation and practiced, this time he remained in seclusion for a whole year.

Just like last time, he was awakened by a breakthrough in his own cultivation.

This time he advanced from the sixth level of Jindan to the seventh level of Jindan, three levels in two years.

It will probably be difficult to explain to my master this time when I go back, unless I have taken an elixir.

After this breakthrough, Chen Yunhao stayed out for more than half a month and then returned to the underground cave again.

However, he left after only three months of seclusion because after the seclusion, he felt that both the Burning Heaven Art and the ability to sense the vitality of heaven and earth had reached a bottleneck.

It made it impossible for him to enter that mysterious and wonderful realm again.

So it is said that everything will turn into its opposite when it reaches its extreme. There is no point in continuing to stay in seclusion.

But there was still more than half a year left, and Chen Yunhao really hadn't practiced at all.

After being promoted three levels in a row, I felt a little restless, so I spent the rest of my time sitting on the stone platform, watching the clouds rising and falling in the mountains ahead, and honing my state of mind day and night.

He continued like this until a new disciple from the sect came to the island to replace him.

At this time, Chen Yunhao's divine light was restrained, the true energy around him was as lively as pearls, the aura of the golden elixir was strong, and his state of mind reached a higher level.

More than half a year ago, he broke through three levels in a row, and the aura on his body could not be suppressed. It was an aura of sharpness that made him restless and irritable.

Fortunately, his master had told him a little trick before. After more than half a year of observing the sea of ​​clouds, gazing at the stars, and feeling the vastness of the world, he finally honed his state of mind to be smooth and free.

After packing up his things, Chen Yunhao set up the flying boat and returned.

A few days later, Chen Yunhao returned to the familiar Thunder Mountain. He had not seen his master for several years. The first thing he did when he returned was to pay a visit to Lin Changfeng.
