Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 52: Entering the Cave Again
Xin Ruyin would also set up some spirit gathering arrays. Although these arrays could also gather spiritual energy, they had great limitations and could not achieve the same powerful effects as the spirit binding arrays.

The spiritual energy gathered by the spirit gathering array will slowly radiate from the array to the outside of the array, and it is impossible to completely isolate the spiritual energy. There is also a limit on the spiritual pressure. When the concentration of spiritual energy exceeds the upper limit of the array, the spiritual pressure is too high, and the spirit gathering array will collapse because it cannot withstand the strong pressure.

Some sects have places with rich spiritual energy, such as the spiritual land where the Spirit Eye Tree is located. They need multiple spirit gathering formations to cooperate with each other to effectively gather the spiritual energy emitted by the Spirit Eye Tree and form a blessed place for cultivation with unusually rich spiritual energy.

Obviously, for Xin Ruyin, who loves to study formations, being able to see the Soul Binding Formation is an unexpected gain. With her talent for formations, as long as she records this formation, it won't take long for her to set it up and restore it.

Nie Zhaonan's eyes lit up when he heard Xin Ruyin's explanation of the formation in front of him: "The spiritual energy of this soul-binding formation is flowing unsteadily, but it is still operating normally. There is a high possibility that there is still spiritual energy remaining in this cave. Maybe this trip will yield some spiritual medicines that are now extinct in the world of immortal cultivation."

Because there was no spiritual energy in the caves along the way, Nie Zhaonan did not expect to harvest spiritual medicine on this trip. But the scene before him made Nie Zhaonan feel like a new world had been discovered.

For Nie Zhaonan, who has the Purple Sky Cave Heaven, some secret manuals are far less important than spiritual medicine. As long as he has a spiritual medicine, Nie Zhaonan can plant and ripen it indefinitely in the Purple Sky Cave Heaven, as many as he wants.

Judging from what he saw and heard in this cave, its owner's cultivation level is at least at the Nascent Soul stage. Even if not all of the spiritual herbs grown by Nascent Soul cultivators are the same spiritual herbs used by Nascent Soul cultivators, the spiritual herbs from the Core Formation stage can greatly benefit Nie Zhaonan.

Xin Ruyin agreed and said, "My husband is right. There is still spiritual energy in this cave. This Soul-Binding Formation can not only absorb the spiritual energy in the formation to operate, but also consumes very little. With an ample supply of spiritual energy, it is not uncommon for it to exist for tens of thousands of years." Xin Ruyin explained the operating principle of the Soul-Binding Formation.

He continued, "The Soul Binding Array only works to gather spiritual energy. It has no defensive effect. We can just go in directly."

Nie Zhaonan and Xin Ruyin walked into the light curtain one after another, and their figures disappeared in the stone road, as if they had entered another world.

The cave that appeared in the eyes of the two people was completely different from what they had seen before.

It is called a grotto, but it is more like a cave. This is because the area of ​​this cave is not only one mile in radius, but also has abundant spiritual energy, which is far beyond the previous small grotto.

Moreover, the entire cave looks natural. Stalactites of various shapes hang from the high ceiling of the cave, and the surrounding walls are rocky, with no traces of artificial excavation at all.

The top of the cave was inlaid with more than a dozen diamond-shaped moonstones the size of a human head, forming a circle around the top of the cave. The moonstone in the middle was even ten feet in size. All the moonstones emitted a soft white light, illuminating the entire cave as if it were the outside world, extremely bright.

A small path paved with white jade connected to the stone wall on the opposite side. In the spiritual fields of one acre on both sides, there were scattered some spiritual medicines, about a hundred plants, and nothing else.

Nie Zhaonan and Xin Ruyin were both shocked and surprised by the scene before them.

Sparkling gems can always attract women's attention, and Xin Ruyin is no exception.

"Husband, look at that moonstone. The ones I've seen in the market before were only as big as low-level spirit stones. I've never seen one this big!" Xin Ruyin looked up at the dazzling moonstone above her head, her eyes sparkling.

Moonstones are not considered rare treasures in the world of immortal cultivation, because they have a single function, only for lighting and decoration, and are even cheaper than spirit stones. However, the size of these moonstones is indeed rare, at least Nie Zhaonan has never seen such a large one.

Although it didn't do anything, Nie Zhaonan didn't want to spoil his woman's fun, so he said, "Ruyin likes these moonstones, just take them back later, they can be used as decorations for our cave."

Nie Zhaonan glanced at the moonstone and then turned his attention to the spiritual medicine in the spiritual field.

He said happily: "The precious things in this cave are not the moonstones, but these thousand-year-old elixirs! Elixirs from ancient times!"

His tone was not as calm as usual, but rather he seemed extremely excited! The magical medicine that has survived from ancient times to the present day! One can imagine the role and significance of this medicine to Nie Zhaonan!

Nie Zhaonan could tell at a glance that the spiritual herbs in the medicine field were ten thousand year old, because the spiritual energy contained in spiritual herbs varied greatly depending on the year they were grown. He had also ripened some thousand year old spiritual herbs, which he used to refine the Dingyan Pill and the Bingling Pill that helped suppress Xin Ruyin's dragon body. The spiritual energy in the spiritual herbs in front of him was several times richer than that of the thousand year old spiritual herbs, and the color was also deeper and richer, so it could only be a ten thousand year old spiritual herb.

"What! These are actually thousand-year-old elixirs!" Xin Ruyin came to her senses after hearing Nie Zhaonan's words.

Xin Ruyin was a smart woman after all. After thinking about it carefully, she understood.

This cave has existed for at least tens of thousands of years, and the spiritual medicines planted in it are constantly updated and regenerated. Because of their age and the fact that no one has picked them, the medicinal properties of tens of thousands of years are only the most conservative estimate.

Xin Ruyin looked at the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in the medicine field, suppressed her excitement, and asked curiously, "Hey, husband, do you know these spiritual herbs? How come I don't know any of them?"

Although Xin Ruyin understood that the elixirs in the medicine field were extremely precious, she still felt like she was at a loss.

Of course, it was not Xin Ruyin's fault that she was shallow-minded. In the world of immortal cultivation, there were so many secret techniques and arts that low-level cultivators could only know some common knowledge and a rough idea. Moreover, some precious information about natural treasures was only in the hands of high-level cultivators, so it was extremely difficult for low-level cultivators to know about it.

Even Nie Zhaonan has been consciously collecting formations, refining books, elixirs and pill recipes since he started practicing, so he can be said to be a cultivator with broad knowledge.

Of the twenty or thirty kinds of magical medicines in the medicine field, I can only recognize five or six, and that's with the help of my memories from my previous life.

Nie Zhaonan regained his composure and said, "Even as a husband, I only know the names of a few of them. As for their specific effects, I don't know."

Nie Zhaonan walked up to a few strange spiritual herbs with purple berries and said with a hint of excitement, "This should be the Wanmeng fruit, but it has turned dark purple."

Nie Zhaonan did not pick the Wanmeng fruit immediately, but went to another corner. Xin Ruyin followed Nie Zhaonan closely.

"Dragon Pattern Grass"

"Wind Spirit Flower"

Of course, even if Nie Zhaonan didn't know other spiritual medicines, based on the fact that several known spiritual medicines are effective for the Nascent Soul stage, he could guess that other spiritual medicines are the same.

As for not knowing the names and specific effects of these spiritual medicines at this time, it has no impact on Nie Zhaonan at the moment. At this time, he is just a foundation-building cultivator and does not need these spiritual medicines yet.

As for how to learn about the information of these ancient elixirs, when you enter the ranks of high-level cultivators in the future, whether by participating in trade fairs or communicating with other cultivators, you will naturally have the opportunity to enrich your knowledge reserves. At that time, recognizing these elixirs will naturally be easy.

Besides, Nie Zhaonan also knew the traces of some spiritual medicine books.

Feng Xi, the "good man" in Chaos Star Sea, has a book about spiritual medicine. There is also a jade slip in the hands of Song Yu of Luoyun Sect, which records many ancient spiritual medicines and pill recipes.

These were all things that Nie Zhaonan was determined to obtain. As long as he advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, with Nie Zhaonan's strength, it would not be difficult to obtain them.
