Mortal: Return of apprenticeship? Bug at the beginning

Chapter 23 Opening up a cave

After successfully advancing to the foundation-building stage, Jiang Tongyue did not rush to come out, but continued to meditate and practice.

There was still a lot of medicinal power from the Foundation Establishment Pill remaining in his dantian, and he didn't want to waste it.

After all, although this immortal-grade foundation-building pill has incredible effects, each cultivator can only take one in his lifetime.

Even if he practiced the third level of Chongyuan Gong and reached the Qi training stage, taking this immortal foundation-building pill again would only allow him to advance to the foundation-building stage, but would not continue to open up his Dantian, expand his tendons and veins, or cleanse his marrow and meridians.

Three months passed in a flash, and Jiang Tongyue finally succeeded in refining the remaining power of the foundation-building elixir in his dantian.

At this time, his cultivation was completely stabilized at the initial stage of foundation building, and he did not plan to continue to retreat in this secret room.

So, after cleaning his body, Jiang Tongyue came to the outside world. After returning the spirit stone, he summoned the Qingye magic weapon and flew towards Xuankun Mountain.

After returning home, Jiang Tongyue took a good bath, packed her things, and then headed towards the meeting hall.

Soon, Jiang Tongyue arrived at the meeting hall. The Qi-cultivating disciples guarding the door of the meeting hall had been replaced by two others.

When the two men saw Jiang Tongyue, the foundation-building cultivator, they stepped forward together, bowed and said, "Uncle Master, is there anything I can do for you?"

"I want to see the headmaster. Is he in the meeting hall now?"

Jiang Tongyue did not make things difficult for the two people in front of him and asked in a calm tone.

"Yes, the head master is in the meeting hall now. Please follow me."

One of the Qigong disciples immediately answered Jiang Tongyue, then walked forward and led Jiang Tongyue on the way.

Jiang Tongyue followed the Qi training disciple and soon arrived at the meeting hall, where she met Huangfeng Valley's head Zhong Lingdao again.

At this time, Zhong Lingdao was busy dealing with the miscellaneous matters of the Huangfeng Valley. When he saw someone coming in, he couldn't help but look up.

"It turned out to be Junior Brother Jiang. Congratulations to Junior Brother Jiang for successfully building his foundation. Our Huangfeng Valley has also gained a pillar!"

When he saw Jiang Tongyue, Zhong Lingdao's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and congratulated Jiang Tongyue.

Zhong Lingdao knew Jiang Tongyue. After all, Jiang Tongyue had become very famous in Huangfeng Valley during this period.

"Master, you are too kind. I am only lucky enough to enter the foundation-building stage. How can I be considered a mainstay?"

Hearing this, although Jiang Tongyue felt secretly happy in her heart, she still shook her head humbly and said this.

"Junior Brother Jiang is too modest. Please take a seat."

Zhong Lingdao didn't dwell on these things anymore, but asked Jiang Tongyue to sit down.

As for the Qi-cultivating cultivator who had brought Jiang Tongyue in earlier, he had already quietly left the hall while Zhong Lingdao was talking to Jiang Tongyue.

Afterwards, Zhong Lingdao talked with Jiang Tongyue for a while and then asked him to wait here for a while. As for Zhong Lingdao, he went to get the roster.

Not long after, Zhong Lingdao came in holding a white jade butterfly in his hand, and used a gold lacquer pen to write Jiang Tongyue's name at the bottom of the jade tablet.

After doing all this, Zhong Lingdao took out three mid-level spirit stones, several formation flags, a formation plate and a jade slip from his storage bag and handed them to Jiang Tongyue.

"Junior Brother Jiang, this is a reward that every disciple of the Yellow Maple Valley who has just established his foundation can get. In addition, you will be able to get a mid-level spirit stone for free every year. You don't need to continue making those miscellaneous items. As for these few mysterious flags, they are essential items for opening up a cave..."

Zhong Lingdao explained to Jiang Tongyue as usual.

"Thank you so much, Master Brother." After Jiang Tongyue took the intermediate-level spirit stone, formation flag and other things from Zhong Lingdao, he thanked Zhong Lingdao.

"You don't have to be polite, Junior Brother. This is just my duty."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Lingdao waved his hand calmly.

After registering his name, Jiang Tongyue left the meeting hall and flew towards Qilin Pavilion.

After renting a double-eyed rat from Qilin Pavilion, he left the gate of Huangfeng Valley and flew towards the northwest.

After flying for more than a day, Jiang Tongyue arrived at the outermost area of ​​the Taiyue Mountains. In the original novel, Han Li's Spirit Eye Spring was found nearby.

At this time, Jiang Tongyue took out a set of ropes from the storage bag and put them around the neck of the double-eyed rat. Then, after feeding the double-eyed rat in his arms with the earth pear fruit that it liked to eat, he began to look for the Spirit Eye Spring nearby.

Two days later, Jiang Tongyue stood at the foot of a steep mountain. Opposite him was a huge mountain wall that was hundreds of feet high.

As for the pair of pupils of the rat, it had already entered the interior of the mountain through the crack in the stone wall in front of it.

Jiang Tongyue didn't hesitate at all. He took out the Chixiao Sword from his storage bag and started to chisel at the mountain wall in front of him.

Needless to say, the sharpness of the Chixiao Sword is so great that this hard mountain wall is like a piece of tofu in front of the Chixiao Sword.

Soon, Jiang Tongyue penetrated the stone wall of the mountain and came to the inner center of the mountain.

In the center of this mountain range is a natural cave, and this cave is filled with rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth.

In the middle of this cave, there is a miniature spring that continuously gushes out water. It is the Spirit Eye Spring in the original book!
At this time, the Double-Eyed Rat was lying comfortably in the Spirit Eye Spring, swimming around, looking at ease.

Seeing this, Jiang Tongyue felt a little happy in his heart. With this Spirit Eye Spring, he could get a higher level Spirit Eye Spring from Han Li.

Jiang Tongyue no longer paid attention to the pair of rat-eyed people, but instead summoned the Chixiao Sword and opened up a dozen secret rooms in the previously dug passage.

In this way, a simple cave was formed.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Tongyue took out the maze array distributed by Huangfeng Valley from the storage bag and hid the cave.

However, this maze formation can only resist mortals and some wild beasts, and is of little use to cultivators.

"It seems that I have to find a defensive formation that can cover the cave as soon as possible!"

Jiang Tongyue felt somewhat disappointed with this maze formation and began to think about where to find it.

At this stage, Xin Ruyin is still just a little girl, so it is naturally impossible for her to research the inverted five elements formation.

Therefore, Jiang Tongyue could only focus his attention on the Tianxing Sect market not far from him.

After all, Tianxing Sect, as one of the three major sects in Yuanwu Kingdom, is particularly adept at formations, so it is naturally his first choice.

Even though the formations sold in the Tianxing Sect’s market are all low-level formations, they are still much stronger than the maze formation in Jiang Tongyue’s hands.

At worst, I can give the purchased formation to Han Li and create a higher-level formation.
