Practice begins with immortality

"If we follow the river that flows into the lake, we can reach the center of the cave." Thinking of the information he had heard before, Wang Bai's heart moved and he immediately took action. He quickly found a river and flew along it.

Three days later, Wang Bai finally saw a vast expanse of water shrouded in mist ahead. The water looked mysterious and dangerous, but Wang Bai did not back off.

"It looks like this is the place. I have to go find the Void Stone first." As he thought about it, Wang Bai dived into the water without hesitation and swam towards the depths. He kept diving, and the water pressure around him became stronger and stronger, but he did not stop.

Finally, Wang Bai reached the bottom of the water and saw a giant fish pouncing towards him.

Then, a flash of sword light appeared, and the giant fish was cut in half.

"It seems that the demon beast with the perfect golden elixir is only in the middle level of the food chain here. We have to be careful." Then, he thought about it and used all his strength to activate the breath-concealing technique and the Qi-storing bead.

Afterwards, Wang Bai's breath became like that of a dead object. If it were a cultivator with strong spiritual awareness, it would not be difficult to find Wang Bai, but it was difficult for these monsters to detect him.

Another day passed. Wang Bai came to a patch of gravel. Upon closer inspection, he saw tiny specks of silver in the sand.

"Particles of Kongming Stone? But it looks like there are quite a lot of them." Then, Wang Bai used his spiritual sense to start picking out the Kongming Stone sand from the sand.

Another three days passed. During this period, through Wang Bai's tireless efforts, he collected stones and sand that were already as big as a thumb.

He fed the stone sand to one of the jade pendants and repaired the damage.

"The stones and sand here have been collected. It seems I have to go to another place to collect them." Wang Bai thought to himself, then he flew out of the water and sneaked over the water.

After a while, "Why is there a hint of demonic aura?"

Elsewhere, on an island in the center of the cave, three cultivators were meeting. These three were all Yuanying Zhenjun from different factions.

"As the convener, True Lord Shui Yuan didn't come. It seems he has other plans." A cultivator who looked like a big man said with a frown.

"I guess if there is another opportunity, then he won't come to the Yinhun Road." Another woman in white answered softly.

"Hmph! This is good. Then there will be one less person to share the treasure." The last person sneered. This person was Xuan Yin.

At this moment, an archway suddenly appeared on the island, engraved with mysterious runes and patterns. The archway slowly opened, revealing a thick black mist that filled people with an inexplicable fear.

"Alright, everyone, let's see what you can do next," Xuan Yin said impatiently, a glint of greed in his eyes. Before he finished speaking, he transformed into a black shadow and instantly rushed into the archway.

The remaining two people looked at each other, not willing to be outdone, and rushed into the archway immediately after him.

The Shui Yuan Zhenjun they were talking about was currently in an underground cave in the eastern part of Shuiyue Cave Heaven. This cave was located deep in the mountain, surrounded by hard rocks and icy groundwater.

Shui Yuan Zhenjun stood in the center of the cave, his eyes revealing a hint of surprise and expectation, as if he had discovered some precious treasure.

"I never imagined I'd encounter such a formidable opportunity," True Lord Shui Yuan muttered to himself, his voice filled with excitement. He gazed at the spiritual fluid shimmering with five-colored light on the stone table before him, a glint of greed in his eyes.

"With this thousand-year-old spiritual marrow liquid, I can extend my life by 200 years. Not only that, if I can completely refine it, even the realm of perfect Nascent Soul will be within my reach." Zhenjun Shui Yuan was secretly calculating in his heart, with an excited smile on his face.

He knew very well how precious this Millennium Spiritual Marrow Fluid was. As long as he could refine it, not only would his lifespan be prolonged, but his cultivation would also be enhanced. Thinking of this, he became increasingly excited, eager to immediately collect the Millennium Spiritual Marrow Fluid.

"With this treasure, why should I go to the Yinhun Dao and fight for my life? What is the Sanyuan Fruit compared to the Thousand-Year Spirit Marrow Liquid?" Shui Yuan Zhenjun said to himself, and then he began to work on breaking the natural formation here.

On the other side, Wang Bai sensed the breath of demons and ghosts, and soon he also came to the archway.

Arriving in front of the archway, Wang Bai felt the Blood Soul Killing Sword in his hand grow increasingly restless, as if filled with a desire for the black mist before him. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the black mist was actually transformed by the power of the Yin spirits. Once a cultivator entered it, their own strength would be suppressed.

"It seems quite a few ghosts are lurking within this archway," Wang Bai muttered to himself. He knew this place was fraught with danger, but he also recognized this as an opportunity. He looked at the Killing Sword, which was devouring the black mist, a flicker of excitement in his eyes. "Ghosts and spirits are naturally antagonized by the Killing Sword. If they encounter it, they're doomed."

"This way, this place can be used to upgrade the grade of the Killing Sword," Wang Bai thought to himself. Ever since the Killing Sword swallowed the Soul-Splitting Knife and became a magic weapon, its power has been significantly improved.

However, during this period, the Killing Sword had only devoured one Nascent Soul cultivator. Because the essence of the Nascent Soul monster was of great use to Wang Bo, who needed it to refine his body, he couldn't feed it to the Killing Sword. Now, facing so many Yin ghosts, it was a good opportunity for the Killing Sword to upgrade its rank.

Thinking of this, Wang Bai no longer hesitated and went straight into the archway.
