Chapter 157: Xuanyuan Cold Pond, the correct way to collect spiritual medicine (two in one)

Regarding the distribution of spiritual materials in the Ningyuan Secret Realm, the masters of the major sects and others argued for a long time.

The Ningyuan Secret Realm is not very big, about five miles in length. Due to the characteristics of the external region, the number of spiritual materials inside is not large. They are all spiritual materials with cold attributes, which are quite special. Of course, for a sect, the number of these spiritual materials is naturally not small.

In addition is the most famous Xuanyuan Cold Pond, which is also the most special water source in the secret realm. It is also the source of life for those spiritual materials, and it also makes the properties of those spiritual materials tend to be cold.

Different areas grow different types of spiritual materials.

Just like near the crater, there are basically spiritual materials with fire attributes. Those spiritual materials will absorb the power of the volcano and grow into special spiritual materials with fire attributes.

On the contrary, if they cannot absorb it, they will die. Some spiritual materials will undergo transformation and then adapt to the environment near the volcano, and eventually possess the attribute of fire.

There are also those places that tend to be dark, and the spiritual materials that are born there are spiritual materials with special cold and yin properties such as corrosion and poison. These are all related to the region.

There are naturally unique cold-attributed spiritual materials in the Ningyuan Secret Realm, and these are also some of the materials used in refining internal-level elixirs, so people from all major sects also care about this matter.

Although it is not the most important main material, it can be obtained in the Ningyuan Secret Realm. Why waste resources to exchange it, which is time-consuming and laborious?

In the end, it was the Prime Minister of Tongyou City who came up with a 50-50 arrangement. After all, there were too many sects involved, and he naturally could not favor the top 20 people in the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition. Moreover, although he now represented the royal family, after the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition, he would only be the Prime Minister of Tongyou City, and by then the relationship with these sects would be very delicate.

Therefore, he would not offend the people from these sects.

When the strength is similar, they will abide by the principle of minority obeying the majority. After all, without absolutely overwhelming strength, they can only abide by this rule.

"After the inspection by the formation master, the gate to the Ningyuan Secret Realm will have a five-day stabilization period, so you must calculate the time well and leave the Ningyuan Secret Realm before the five days are up!"

"As for other precautions, I have already told you before, so I won't go into details!"

"Now, you can enter the Ningyuan Secret Realm!"

The Prime Minister of Tongyou City looked at these young people who ranked in the top 20 of the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition and said seriously.

After these high-level figures finished their discussion, matters in the secret realm proceeded normally.

Conflicts of interest will naturally not affect the affairs of the secret realm.

Yang Xuan looked at the secret gate of the Ningyuan Secret Realm in front of him. It was somewhat similar to the secret realm he had visited before. There were some differences, but the differences were not big.

However, the stability period of this secret realm is a bit short, and the time spent in it cannot be too long. Otherwise, after the stability period is over, the door to the secret realm may be closed at any time. If you fail to leave at that time, you will most likely be trapped in the secret realm, and you can only leave when the secret realm opens next time.

This process is extremely dangerous. After all, the entire secret realm has disappeared into the void, and no one knows what kind of dangers one will encounter, unless one has absolute strength to directly break through the secret realm and the void.

But those who can achieve this are all martial arts masters and powerful figures.

For Yang Xuan and others, there is still a long way to go.

So the best option is to leave within a safe period.

The overall scope of the Ningyuan Secret Realm is not that large, so as long as they don’t think too much and want to stay in the secret realm for a long time, they can basically leave safely.

After all, this is a developed secret realm. There are basically no strange beasts, poisonous creatures, etc. Even if there are, they will not be too strong. At most, they are the fish that have escaped the net after previous exploration. Their strength is nothing to Yang Xuan and others.

As the Tongyou City Prime Minister finished speaking, Yang Xuan and other people who were in the top 20 of the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition quickly walked into the Ningyuan Secret Realm. The rich spiritual environment was naturally a good place for cultivation.

This newly opened secret realm has the richest spiritual energy, even better than the places for cultivation on the spiritual veins.

After reaching the marrow cleansing realm in martial arts, one can make better use of spiritual energy, and use it to cleanse the body and assist in its transformation.

It will be easier to wait until the body has completely adapted to the changes brought about by the spiritual energy and is able to break through the realm of divine will.

This is also one of the important reasons why most marrow cleansing masters practice martial arts in places with abundant spiritual energy, in preparation for breaking through the realm of divine will.

Even though one's martial arts skills are still a little lacking, these preparations still need to be made in advance.

As he stepped into the Ningyuan Secret Realm, Yang Xuan could clearly feel the difference in the richness of the spiritual energy.

At the gate to the secret realm, the spiritual energy was already very dense, and after entering the Ningyuan secret realm, the density of the spiritual energy increased exponentially. The further in you go, the denser the spiritual energy becomes. It is even denser than the Zizhu Courtyard on Zizhu Peak that Yang Xuan had visited before.

Obviously, the level of the spiritual veins in Zizhu Peak is not as high as the spiritual veins in Ningyuan Secret Realm, which is why this feeling occurs.

His body involuntarily absorbed the spiritual energy, and he felt comfortable. However, he knew that the spiritual energy was absorbed by his body and would be excreted when he breathed, so only a very small amount could be absorbed by his body.

Only with strong martial arts skills can one refine spiritual energy into the body and truly cleanse the physical body. At that time, the martial arts skills will be qualitatively improved.

After entering the Ningyuan Secret Realm, everyone ran towards the direction of the Xuanyuan Cold Pond, because the body-tempering ability of the Xuanyuan Cold Pond was the best in the beginning, but later on, the effect was very average.

Of course, first come first served!

Seeing this, Yang Xuan did not follow them, but went to collect spiritual herbs first.

The Xuanyuan Cold Pond can help him practice and speed up the tempering process, but compared to using the Xuanyuan Cold Pond to practice, it is better to collect more spiritual herbs first.

Although it takes a 50-50 split to take it out, he can collect and swallow the elixir at the same time, allowing me, the medicine god, to extract the medicinal energy from the elixir.

It just so happened that everyone else was busy practicing, so he didn't have to swallow the elixir behind others' backs and could eat it openly.

After all, it's not always possible to find such a vast land of spiritual medicine for him to devour. If you come across it, don't miss it!

Xiao Jianyi was naturally very fast, and he also paid attention to the speed of others. Naturally, he also noticed the situation on Yang Xuan's side. After all, at Yang Xuan's age, he could achieve such results, which was even more outstanding than when he participated in the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition. Naturally, he paid more attention to it.

Although he didn't understand why the other party didn't go to Xuanyuan Cold Pond first, he would not stop, because his goal was very clear, which was to get to Xuanyuan Cold Pond first.

He wanted to use the Xuanyuan Cold Pond and his accumulation to complete three marrow cleansings before the battle between the young geniuses in the capital began, and catch up with the geniuses from other states.

Although he is unrivaled in the southern region of Taiyuan, he is not the top-level genius in the entire Taiyuan Dynasty.

Unless he can make a breakthrough in his martial arts, he will have no chance of catching up with the geniuses ahead of him.

As a young man, since he is the best in the Southern Region, he naturally wants to be the best in the entire Taiyuan Dynasty and works hard for this. In Xiao Jianyi's eyes, Yang Xuan is not a competitor. Only the young geniuses in other states of the Taiyuan Dynasty are his real competitors.

Those who could get into the top 20 of the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition all had good methods of making their bodies light. They were all very fast and soon disappeared from Yang Xuan’s sight.

"Blue Sky Grass, Cold Jade Fruit, I saw these spiritual materials when I just came in. It turns out that a lot of spiritual materials have grown in the past fifty years!"

Yang Xuan saw these spiritual materials and started collecting them directly.

He basically knew all about the spiritual materials in the Ningyuan Secret Realm, because he had spent some time observing them, and all the unique spiritual materials there were recorded.

He collected two spiritual herbs and one of them fell directly into his mouth. Before it was swallowed, my natural talent as the God of Medicine absorbed the medicinal energy contained in it. As for the remaining impurities, they were all in his stomach and would be excreted normally in the end.

The same goes for spiritual fruits, collect some and eat some.

As the first person to collect the spiritual herbs, he naturally cannot return empty-handed. He must have a certain amount of spiritual materials to cover up the objects he swallowed the spiritual herbs.

While collecting, Yang Xuan watched as I, the God of Medicine's talent, accumulated more and more medicinal energy. With such a good opportunity to accumulate medicinal energy, he naturally had to make good use of it.

As for the spiritual materials, Yang Xuan did not choose to collect them all, but left a part behind to give others the opportunity to collect them. This method could best hide how much spiritual medicine he had collected.

If the plants are collected directly by area and not a single one is left, we can actually infer how much he has collected.

Although no one knew that he had swallowed these elixirs, more preparation would have had a better effect.

Even if the number of spiritual materials finally taken out is less than the previous times, it will not be too noticeable. At most, it will feel that this secret realm is beginning to decline and the spiritual energy is not as rich as before.

Some secret realms merge directly with the land after they appear, which means that the spiritual veins in the secret realm are exhausted and they slowly return to ordinary life, and can no longer hide in the void.

The people who opened up the secret realm are basically those with great supernatural powers. The power left behind by these people is the reason for the long-term existence of the secret realm. The power left behind by these great supernatural powers will dissipate, and at this time, the power of the spiritual veins becomes the power to maintain the secret realm. As the spiritual veins exhaust themselves, this last power to maintain the secret realm disappears, and it naturally returns to ordinary.

The final destination of most secret places is to merge into the earth.

After Yang Xuan had visited a secret realm once, he investigated information related to the secret realm and naturally knew about this situation.

Therefore, even if the output of the Ningyuan Secret Realm decreases, it is actually normal. Even if problems are discovered, that will be after the next secret realm is opened, and that will be more than 50 years later.

By that time, no one knew how advanced Yang Xuan's martial arts skills had been. However, one thing was certain: by that time, he would have been able to ignore the Taiyuan Dynasty.

While others entered the Xuanyuan Cold Pond and practiced against all odds, Yang Xuan kept collecting various spiritual materials. His figure kept moving forward in the Ningyuan Secret Realm, and various spiritual medicines and fruits fell into his hands.

There are abundant spiritual materials in the Ningyuan Secret Realm. What he collected are similar to the records he has read. Different spiritual medicines can bring him different medicinal properties.

"Someone actually entered the secret realm, but instead of using the Xuanyuan Cold Pond to practice, he went to collect those ordinary spiritual materials. This is really putting the cart before the horse!"

"It turns out that they are a small force coming here, they don't know how precious the Xuanyuan Cold Pond is!"

Tan Anshi noticed that Yang Xuan did not come to Xuanyuan Cold Pond to practice, so he naturally guessed Yang Xuan's plan.

He had been feeling aggrieved about losing to Yang Xuan.

After all, the other party was superior to him in martial arts attainment, martial arts skills, age, etc., which made him feel very embarrassed.

All the fame accumulated before eventually became a stepping stone for Yang Xuan and a backdrop for the second dark horse of Jiannan Martial Arts Association.

Therefore, he was very dissatisfied with Yang Xuan. When he saw Yang Xuan's choice, he sneered and mocked Yang Xuan's choice.

If Yang Xuan was here, he wouldn't dare to say so, but since he's not here, he can naturally say whatever he wants!
Xiao Jian glanced at Tan Anshi, then stopped paying attention to him and continued to absorb the special cold energy in the Xuanyuan Cold Pond to temper his body and help him quickly break through to the third marrow cleansing.

The progress of cultivation in the Xuanyuan Cold Pond was similar to what he knew. The effect of that special cold energy was very unique. It was very effective for those who came into contact with the cold energy in the Xuanyuan Cold Pond for the first time.

Xiao Jianyi could feel the cold energy penetrating into his bone marrow, assisting him in his marrow cleansing practice, speeding up his marrow cleansing accumulation, and breaking through to the third level of marrow cleansing.

Sheng Yanxue glanced at Tan Anshi and said nothing. Although she lost to Yang Xuan because she was seriously injured in a head-on fight with Lin Shaosheng, she was ultimately unable to exert her full combat strength.

But she also doesn't have the habit of speaking ill of others behind their backs.

"Brother Qin is right. When you come to the secret realm, you don't temper yourself in the Xuanyuan Cold Pond first, but go to collect those unimportant spiritual materials. You really have a mediocre vision!"

Someone spoke up and agreed.

Yang Xuan was not there at the moment, so this person naturally wanted to please Tan Anshi and gain Tan Anshi's favor.

If Yang Xuan was here, he would naturally not agree, but since he was not here, he could do as he pleased.

In the Xuanyuan Cold Pond, the cold energy will actively help with tempering, so you can concentrate on talking.

Many people were also chatting, after all, not everyone likes to practice asceticism.

"You dare to say these things in front of Yang Xuan, I can still respect you as men, but it's really boring to say bad things behind people's backs!"

Yu Dingyi listened to these people talking and spoke slowly.

He had fought with Yang Xuan and really felt the difference in strength. Although the difference was not big, it was a fact that he was no match for him.

He doesn't like to talk bad about people behind their backs, nor does he like to see others behave that way.

Chirping and quite noisy.

As soon as Yu Ding opened his mouth, the faces of the people who were talking froze, and they did not continue talking about Yang Xuan's "short-sightedness".

After all, Yu Dingyi's strength far exceeds that of them, not to mention Yang Xuan.

The relationships among the top 20 people in the Jiannan Martial Arts Association are not that harmonious. If they provoke a master among them, it is normal for them to kill them.

They are originally from different sects and are only temporarily representing the Southern Region of Taiyuan. Apart from this point, the interests of the individuals they represent and the sects behind them are not consistent!
