Martial Arts Immortal.

……

In the abyss.

There is a dark hole on the cliff wall covered with a strange sticky liquid.

The entrance of the cave is very large, with a diameter of about four meters.

As for how deep the cave was, Lin Zheyu had no idea.

He stood quietly in front of the dark cave entrance, his eyes full of solemnity.

It took about ten years.

Lin Zheyu finally arrived in front of this mysterious cave.

However, when he arrived in front of the cave, he hesitated and did not dare to enter rashly.

A powerful perception spread out, and there was nothing unusual about the cliff in front of him. He could not even sense the existence of this cave.

This cave only exists in Lin Zheyu's field of vision and cannot be reached or explored by perception or spiritual sense.

"What on earth is in here?!!"

Lin Zheyu let out a light breath and suppressed the inexplicable trembling in his heart.

Even though he couldn't sense or detect the situation in the cave, just standing here made him feel a terrifying crisis looming, causing his true spirit to tremble.

Lin Zheyu hasn't felt this kind of feeling for a long time.

"call……"

Lin Zheyu stood there for a long time, then he took a long breath, turned around and walked out.

He didn't plan to go in for the time being.

There was a terrible danger in the cave, a danger that made his true spirit tremble.

If you go in rashly, it's easy to get stuck in it.

"That technique is about to be successfully created. Don't rush in. Wait until the technique is successfully created before you go in."

Lin Zheyu pondered.

His thoughts moved slightly, and clones came out of his body, stationed at different points of the formation, suppressing some of the formation authority that he had finally cracked and controlled.

As for himself, he walked out of the formation.

……

Outside the array.

Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi, who were hiding in the range covered by the formation flags, kept making hand gestures and casting spiritual seals that merged into the surrounding formation flags.

They are trying to refine and repair this set of formation flags again.

The set of formation flags that the two of them controlled was damaged.

The original quality of the formation flag can be considered top-notch among the magic weapons at the level of Heavenly Venerate.

However, in order to enter the Era of Setting Sun, this set of formation flags was artificially damaged and its quality dropped.

The rules in Era of Sunset are extremely strict, and the cycle of cause and effect cannot be escaped.

It’s not that you don’t report that the time has not come yet.

The cultivators who took advantage of the loopholes in the rules of the Era of Setting Sun and brought in "super-standard" magic weapons will eventually receive the "retribution" they deserve.

This "retribution" will be shown in the next miracle after using the "super-standard" magic weapon.

Even if you stay in a wonder and don't go to the next wonder, it will be useless until the end of the era.

In Era of Sunset, the speed of time flowing through each of the wonders is different.

The moment one steps out of the setting sun of the era is enough to allow the cultivator to enter another wonderland, spending hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years there, receiving punishment.

but,

Depending on the loophole the monk exploits, the level, power, and effect of the magic weapon he brings in will be different.

The final 'punishment' will also be different.

Among them, those who have just reached the level of Heavenly Venerate, and the weaker the effect of the magic weapon, the lighter the punishment will be.

If you bring the magic weapon into the Era of Setting Sun and then refine it again to increase its power, the punishment will be further reduced.

This is why Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi took the initiative to destroy the set of formation flags they controlled and caused them to drop in grade.

When they first entered the Era of Setting Sun, the formation flags controlled by the two of them merged into one, but their power did not even reach the level of Heavenly Venerate.

After being refined by Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi, the power of the formation flags reached the level of Heavenly Venerate.

The original level and power of the formation flag were extremely strong. After they were actively destroyed and their grade dropped, the difficulty of re-refining them would be greatly reduced.

In addition to actively destroying the magic weapon and causing it to drop in grade.

In order to minimize the final punishment, Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi also made other efforts.

That is, the most powerful means of attack and many powerful abilities of the formation flags they controlled were forcibly cut off.

Only the auxiliary role remains.

The only effect of this set of formation flags is to assist the two people in concealing their own aura and covering their own tracks.

Many other powerful abilities and means of attack were cut off one by one.

All of these require Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi to enter the Era of Settlement and use their own means to refine them again.

After all kinds of preparations.

Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi can reduce the punishment to the lowest possible level.

They were confident that they could withstand that level of punishment with their own strength.

"Um?!"

Mu Yunshi, who was re-refining the formation flag, sensed the movement outside. His expression changed slightly and he uttered a light exclamation.

"He's out again, and this time he's much faster than before!"

Mu Yunshi looked at Lin Zheyu's departing back with a look of surprise.

As time goes by, your adaptation to the power of nightmare should become stronger.

It was the same for the other party before, and each time he stayed inside was longer than before.

But now, in less than two months, the other party has come out.

"It's incredible. A mere warrior can actually master such an extraordinary formation method."

"He left at this time, probably because he wanted to improve his condition to the peak, and then try to break through into the cave!"

Chang Zichen narrowed his eyes and looked towards the cave in the distance that was located in the center of the powerful formation restriction, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

The other party actually walked there.

Although he did not take the initiative to go deeper into it, Chang Zichen could sense the power of the formation's restrictions.

Even he was not sure he could get there in such a short time.

This person's attainments in the art of formations truly exceeded his imagination.

"Has he arrived in front of the cave entrance?"

"So fast?!!"

Mu Yunshi couldn't help but let out a low cry.

Her mind was immersed in the ritual of refining the formation flags, and she was not paying attention to the movements in the outside world.

Only when Lin Zheyu left the formation would Mu Yunshi sense it and then pay a little attention.

While Chang Zichen was offering sacrifices to the formation flags, he was also keeping a close eye on Lin Zheyu's movements.

Therefore, Mu Yunshi was not clear about Lin Zheyu's specific progress.

"Yes!"

"To be able to raise his attainments in formation to such a level with his warrior's body, this person is truly amazing."

“Even a cultivator who specializes in formations may not be able to match this person.”

Chang Zichen praised.

"Could it be that he has awakened his martial arts divine eye?" Mu Yunshi frowned slightly.

"should be."

Chang Zichen smiled and said, "But don't worry, even if the martial arts divine eye is awakened, it will not be able to find us."

He was extremely confident in the power of the battle flag.

After all, this set of formation flags was originally a top-grade magic weapon at the level of Heavenly Venerate!

In addition, the nightmare power in the abyss is extremely strong. Under the interference of the nightmare power, it is even more impossible for the other party to discover them.

"I'm worrying too much."

Mu Yunshi smiled and put aside her worries.

Indeed, although the martial arts divine eye is powerful, in this abyss with such a strong nightmare force, there are also powerful formation flags covering it.

In any case, there is no way the other party would discover them.

"If the other party has truly awakened the Martial Arts Divine Eye, we must further improve the array flag's siege energy as soon as possible."

Mu Yunshi said.

The divine eye of martial arts is extremely powerful. It can see through illusions, understand the essence, and see the trajectory of the flow of the great way.

If the means of encirclement by the formation flags are not perfect enough, they will not be able to encircle a strong man who has awakened the martial arts divine eye.

The opponent can easily see the flaws and weaknesses in the formation, and then break through and escape.

“Well, you really have to be careful about this.”

Chang Zichen nodded in agreement, "However, there is no need to worry too much. The other party has just reached the entrance of the cave, and there are still many dangers inside."

"Even if his attainments in formation are quite good, it's not that easy to succeed." Chang Zichen said with a smile.

……

Boom boom boom! ! !
Outside the Nightmare City, Lin Zheyu sat cross-legged, and bursts of roars came from the void of the inner universe.

One after another, powerful clones exploded and transformed into energy for source force cultivation.

'Use one unit of source power to practice the "Elemental Spirit Escape Technique."'

As the thought came out, Lin Zheyu was in a trance for a moment, then he entered the space of consciousness and began to practice endlessly.

During this decade or so,

Every time he left the depths of Nightmare City, he would use the source power to recover from being eroded by the power of Nightmare.

Then, he took the time to comprehend and deduce the unfinished technique. After so many years, he had perfected the first level of "Yuanling Dunshu" and started practicing the second level.

This technique only has three levels in total.

However, the consumption was also extremely shocking, consuming nearly 40,000 clones of Lin Zheyu.

It was only because he had accumulated enough clones before and the space in the inner universe was large enough that Lin Zheyu had stored more than 100,000 clones in the inner universe.

Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to sustain such astonishing consumption.

At the current rate and with such heavy consumption, he will have no problem holding on for another ten years.

"call……"

After a few breaths, Lin Zheyu let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.

After a pause, he began to deduce the unfinished technique.

Rich qi and blood energy emanated from the body, and infinite martial arts divine patterns condensed from the qi and blood.

Chi chi chi——

The divine patterns of martial arts spread out and condensed into one miniature formation after another in the void.

Countless micro-array formations were running rapidly, slowly absorbing the nightmare power that permeated the void.

puff! !

Suddenly, the micro-formation formed by the martial arts divine pattern went out of control, and the majestic power of nightmare surged in from all directions.

Lin Zheyu's expression was calm, his thoughts moved slightly, and he cut off the connection with those martial arts divine patterns.

Chi chi chi——

He kept trying to integrate the methods he learned from the formation restrictions in the mysterious abyss into the skills he was creating.

Time passes slowly...

One month... two months passed...

Lin Zheyu breathed a sigh of relief and woke up from his practice.

He shook his head slightly, somewhat helpless.

Still failed.

The difficulty of creating this technique was far beyond his imagination.

The strange energy of nightmare power is simply not something that ordinary people can control.

"Let's go back first and study the formation there..."

Lin Zheyu stood up and rushed towards the black abyss.

Although he had no intention of entering the dangerous cave, he still had to go back.

After all, the clone left there couldn't hold on for that long.

Moreover, even if he did not plan to go deeper into the cave, Lin Zheyu could move in other directions and continue to analyze and crack the formation restrictions in other areas.

……

"came back……"

Chang Zichen's expression changed slightly as he watched Lin Zheyu walk towards the cave.

However, soon his brows began to frown.

"What's wrong, senior brother?"

Noticing the change in Chang Zichen's expression, Mu Yunshi asked.

She followed Chang Zichen's gaze and saw a strange scene.

The burly man did not move towards the cave, but suddenly changed direction and headed in another direction.

"strangeness……"

"Is there something wrong with the formation restrictions inside?"

Chang Zichen pondered.

Because of the powerful formation restrictions and the strong nightmare power, he was unable to sense the specific situation on Lin Zheyu's side.

He could only sense Lin Zheyu's general movements based on the vague energy fluctuations.

……

He ignored the doubts of Chang Zichen and Mu Yunshi.

Lin Zheyu changed direction on his own and started to advance in other directions.

Soon, more than two months passed.

Lin Zheyu left behind several clones again, left the black abyss, and headed out of the Nightmare City.

Arrived outside the Nightmare City, to an area where the power of nightmare was sparse.

Lin Zheyu used the source power to recover from the erosion of nightmare power.

Then, a new round of derivation and improvement of the exercises began.

And so on and on.

In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed.

"It's done!!"

Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Looking at the martial arts technique that appeared on the data column, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

really not easy.

There is limited energy to assist.

As long as the skills can meet the requirements and can be operated under the source power state, they are considered to have met the standards.

Under such conditions, he still spent so much time before he created a martial art that could barely work.

"The effect...hmm..."

"Um……"

Lin Zheyu tried it briefly and then fell silent.

"Forget it, as long as it works, it's fine. Even if the effect is a little worse, I can just make up for it with more source power."

Lin Zheyu comforted himself.

As long as the technique can be performed, it doesn’t matter what the effect of the technique is.

However, since he was able to create such a technique, those powerful forces should also have similar techniques.

It’s a pity that the strong men that Lin Zheyu had captured before did not have such skills.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

"Let's get started. First, increase your resistance to the power of nightmares."

"Although the energy of nightmare power is strange, it still has great benefits."

"After this training, my soul, spirit, and physical body should be able to improve significantly."

Lin Zheyu smiled slightly and suddenly became expectant.

He was not worried that his realm would surpass the Lingbian realm and break through to the Tianzun realm.

Limited by his own understanding of the Great Dao, Lin Zheyu's realm could not be broken through at all.

Get up.

Moved to an area with higher energy concentration.

"swallow!"

Lin Zheyu's thought moved slightly, and endless martial arts divine patterns turned into blood mist, spreading out, interweaving around his body to form a blood-colored network condensed from layers of martial arts divine patterns.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful devouring force came from his body.

In an instant, surging energy rushed in from all directions and poured into the void of the inner universe.

After a while.

Lin Zheyu sighed and stopped.

"It's not enough, but unfortunately I can't hold on any longer..."

Lin Zheyu sensed the energy that he had just swallowed and stored in the void of the inner universe and shook his head slightly.

Even though he successfully created this technique, he was still unable to absorb too much nightmare power due to his own ability to withstand it.

For the time being, I can only use the energy in my clone as a transition.

Boom boom boom! ! !

Lin Zheyu's mind moved slightly, and hundreds of clones exploded, decomposing into rich energy.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of clones walked out from the void of the inner universe and protected him.

'Use one unit of source power to practice the Great Dream Heart Method.'

As the thought came out, Lin Zheyu was in a trance for a moment, then he entered the space of consciousness and began endless practice.

In the space of consciousness, the surging power of nightmare rushed towards Lin Zheyu.

In an instant, Lin Zheyu fell into a deep sleep.

however,
Even so, there were still countless martial arts divine patterns flashing on his body, forming miniature formations, and the miniature formations formed into larger formations, maintaining the circulation of energy in his body.

at the same time.

In his sleep, Lin Zheyu was also practicing, practicing the same technique simultaneously in his dreams and in reality.

This is why Lin Zheyu named the special technique he created "The Great Dream Heart Technique".

Even if the biggest problem of using the power of nightmare to practice has been solved.

Lin Zheyu was also unable to solve the problem of himself falling into a sleep uncontrollably due to the continuous erosion of a large amount of nightmare power.

Because of the strange nature of nightmare power.

This problem is simply not something that Lin Zheyu can solve now.

If the source of power training is not completed, the state of the individual will be completely restored.

The martial arts technique created by Lin Zheyu cannot even be practiced.

This is because, at the end of the practice, there is a high possibility that you will fall into an extremely long nightmare.
