Mortal Cultivator: Lin Tianzun

Chapter 188 Lingmiao Garden and Shouxu Tianding!
After entering this place, Lin Fan quickly realized that this was actually a small space. He exclaimed in amazement, "Who on earth is this divine being who possesses such a heaven-shattering and heaven-defying magical power?"

Afterwards, he calmed himself down a little, and then, with a pinch of the magic formula, the spiritual consciousness in his mind surged out.

The powerful spiritual consciousness spread out in all directions like spider silk, leaving no corner untouched, and carefully exploring this mysterious space.

After a while, Lin Fan appeared in front of a small medicinal field. Upon closer inspection, most of the plants were rare species that had long been extinct in the outside world. Each plant was more than ten thousand years old, and some had been growing for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.

These elixirs have been nourished by spiritual energy for countless years, and their medicinal properties have increased countless times. In today's world of immortal cultivation, they are definitely unique.

Afterwards, Lin Fan roughly counted and found that there were about a hundred spiritual herbs in the medicine field.

Soon, his eyes were attracted by a small tree about ten feet high, with five or six fruits hanging on it.

Lin Fan took a closer look and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Nirvana Holy Yuan Fruit!"

This is the main material for refining the "Nirvana Holy Yuan Pill". For cultivators at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage, this pill is a heaven-defying existence. Its greatest effect is to help them break through the bottleneck of the Spirit Transformation stage, and it can increase the chance of breakthrough by 30%.

In the world of cultivating immortals, breaking through the bottleneck of the Spirit Transformation Stage is as difficult as ascending to heaven. Every cultivator at the peak of the late Nascent Soul Stage is tightly bound by this bottleneck.

Many of them find it difficult to cross this hurdle in their entire lives, and can only exhaust their lifespan in the long wait and struggle, and finally die helplessly.

However, this Nirvana Holy Yuan Pill can bring them a glimmer of hope, with a 30% chance of helping them break free from their shackles and enter a higher realm of spiritual transformation.

For these struggling monks, this is undoubtedly a rare treasure they have long dreamed of, carrying all their hopes of continuing on the path of cultivation.

Afterwards, Lin Fan identified them one by one: "Nine Yang Jade Yuanzhi, Seven Wonders Spiritual Ginseng, Golden Jade Condensed Yuan Grass..."

Oh my god, this is really a fortune!

Lin Fan could no longer suppress his excitement. He began to dance and let out excited cries from time to time.

It took him a long while to suppress the ecstasy in his heart.

He knew that the time to enter the inner hall was limited and he couldn't waste too much time here. The most urgent thing was to pick all the spiritual herbs here quickly!

Then, Lin Fan quickly walked to the edge of the medicinal field, bent down, and carefully picked the herbs one by one according to the habits of the spiritual herbs he had learned before.

He was very skilled. Every time he picked a plant, he would quickly pick up the jade box prepared on the side and place the spiritual herbs in the right categories. His movements were done in one go and he did not dare to be careless at all. After all, these were the foundation for his future breakthroughs in cultivation.

After several hours, Lin Fan straightened up, took a long breath, looked at the hundreds of boxes on the ground, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He raised his hand and patted the storage bag. In an instant, a golden light gushed out from the storage bag, like a golden torrent, enveloping all the boxes on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, these boxes filled with rare elixirs followed the golden light and entered the storage bag on Lin Fan's waist.

"Now I can expect to become a god!"

Lin Fan muttered to himself excitedly. As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his mouth and spit out the Tianshu Sword. Then, he firmly grasped the hilt with his right hand, and the spiritual power in his body surged and gathered like a surging tide.

He suddenly swung his arm, and a gray-gold sword energy roared out with tremendous power.

The sword energy shot straight towards a weak point in space. With a crisp "click" sound, the weak point was easily torn open by the sword energy, revealing a passage about ten feet wide.

Seeing this, Lin Fan moved as fast as lightning, passed through the passage in a flash, and appeared on the second floor of "Baodan Pavilion" again.

As soon as he landed, Lin Fan turned the Tianshu Sword in his hand and swung it fiercely at one of the shields.

In an instant, another sword energy whistled and flew over. With a "crack", the seemingly solid shield shattered instantly and turned into countless light points that dissipated in the air.

Lin Fan was quick-witted and quick-handed, grabbing the jade bottle on the platform.

At this moment, the teleportation restriction was suddenly activated, and with a flash of light, it wrapped him tightly.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Fan felt dizzy and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a small stone chamber.

He looked up and saw a small passage right in front of the stone chamber.

Lin Fan guessed in his heart that this passage should be the passage leading to the wonderful fantasy world.

He subconsciously picked up the jade bottle in his hand and took a closer look. The words "Juyuan Dan" were clearly written on it. Lin Fan put the jade bottle away.

Then, Lin Fan stepped into the passage.

He walked forward steadily, and before he knew it, he had walked in this passage for about a meal's time.

As we walked, an exquisite corridor suddenly appeared in front of us. The walls on both sides of the corridor were inlaid with sparkling gems, making the entire corridor as bright as day.

Lin Fan didn't stay for too long and continued to move forward.

Since when, all kinds of peerless beauties have quietly appeared around.

There are young women with graceful figures and charming demeanor, exuding a mature charm in every gesture; there are young girls with beautiful smiles and youthful charm, with lively light sparkling in their eyes.

There are also sexy beauties dressed in light gauze, whose every frown and smile are captivating; there are also cold beauties with a cold expression, like a flower on a high mountain; noble women have a graceful temperament and are elegant in every gesture.

Sweet women's smiles were as sweet as spring breezes; charming women's eyes were full of affection, making it difficult to look away. These beauties, some with charming smiles and some with longing eyes, surrounded Lin Fan, as if trying their best to attract his attention.

"..."

Lin Fan looked at the stone gate in front of him and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked into the stone gate.

Yuan Yao and Fairy Zi Ling followed closely behind Lin Fan, and the three of them quickly disappeared into the darkness behind the stone gate.

As you step through the stone gate, what comes into view are crisscrossing bluestone passages, like an intricate maze.

Lin Fan looked around for a moment, then randomly chose a passage and walked in.

Stone doors appear from time to time around the passage.

Lin Fan knew that with the incomplete map of the sky, he could enter these stone chambers and take the treasures.

But once you go in, you can't come out, and naturally you can't enter the inner hall again.

His target was the Xutian Ding. The treasures in these stone chambers were not of his interest at the moment, so Lin Fan did not stop at all and continued forward with Fairy Zi Ling and Yuan Yao.

I don’t know how long I walked, but suddenly, a dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from the opposite side.

The "bang" sound seemed particularly abrupt in this silent passage.

Then, the sound came one after another, continuously, as if something huge was slowly approaching them.

The heavy sound of movement was getting closer and closer, and seemed to be just dozens of feet away.

However, the passage was completely dark, pitch black, and it was impossible to see anything clearly. Apparently, there were restrictions in the inner hall that restricted the monks' vision and spiritual awareness, making it difficult for them to foresee danger in advance.

After a while, several golden wolf puppets appeared in everyone's sight.

These puppet beasts are burly in build, holding a thick, black long sword in their hands, with a cold light emitting from the sword.

Seeing this, Lin Fan immediately opened his mouth and spat out the Tianshu Sword.

He held the hilt of the sword firmly in his right hand and continuously poured his magic power into it.

Then, he swung his arm violently, and with a "swoosh, swoosh, swoosh", several gray-gold sword auras roared out with tremendous power.

With a few crisp "crackling" sounds, several wolf-headed puppets were easily split in half by the sword energy, falling to the ground with a thud, splashing a cloud of dust. "Let's go."

Lin Fan whispered as the group continued to move forward.

Along the way, puppets would pop up from time to time to block the way, but in front of Lin Fan, these obstacles were nothing to mention.

With a flash of cold light from the Tianshu Sword in his hand, he was able to easily deal with the puppet. His movements were smooth and flowing without any delay.

After a while, everyone came to a crossroads.

In the center of the intersection, a small teleportation array stood quietly.

After taking a look around, Lin Fan said confidently, "This should be the teleportation array to the second floor."

After saying that, he stepped onto the teleportation array with Yuan Yao and Fairy Zi Ling.

In an instant, a white light flashed, and the figures of the three people disappeared from the spot. When they reappeared, they were already in a bluestone passage.

Lin Fan took the lead and continued to lead everyone forward.

Not long after they left, a wave of snake guard puppets attacked with their fangs and claws bared.

Lin Fan's face was calm, and he held the Tianshu Sword tightly in his hand. Sharp sword energy whizzed out, and in the blink of an eye, the Snake Guard puppet was smashed to pieces, easily resolving the crisis.

The layout of this second floor is obviously different from that of the first floor. Crossroads appear much less frequently and the distances between them are longer.

Moreover, along the way, various powerful restrictions and traps emerged one after another.

But even so, thanks to Lin Fan's powerful strength, he opened up a safe path for Yuan Yao and Fairy Zi Ling.

The two men felt that they had not entered the famous and dangerous Xutian Palace at all, but rather were strolling in a quiet and comfortable private back garden, without feeling any danger at all.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the teleportation array on the second floor.

Lin Fan did not hesitate and led the two of them onto the magic circle and successfully reached the third level.

After that, they overcame countless difficulties and obstacles along the way. Before they knew it, Lin Fan had brought the two of them to the fifth floor.

Looking at the platform in front of him, Lin Fan walked around behind it.

I saw that corresponding to the light shield was a tall bluestone wall.

There are some ancient monster pictures and dense runes carved on the wall. At first glance, there is nothing unusual.

Lin Fan stretched out two fingers and tapped lightly on the wall, from left to right, covering most of the wall.

Finally, his fingertips touched a special place and found the hidden layer.

After finding the mezzanine, Lin Fan immediately pinched his fingers and a golden sword energy condensed in his hand in an instant.

With a loud "bang", the sword energy hit the target accurately and the interlayer was shattered.

Lin Fan carefully inserted his fingers into the interlayer of the broken wall, groping around, and touched a slender, round, soft object, like a stick.

When he withdrew his arm from the bluestone and took a closer look, he found that it was actually an old and yellowed scroll. Lin Fan knew that this was the map of Xutian Palace, so he put it into the storage bag.

Then, Lin Fan strode to the light shield at the steps.

Without saying a word, he tightly grasped the Tianshu Sword in his right hand, and the spiritual power in his body surged and gathered, instantly emitting a gray-gold sword energy.

With a "swish", the seemingly solid light shield was torn into a huge crack several feet wide.

Lin Fan said in a deep voice, "Let's go in!"

After saying that, he strode into the light shield.

Yuan Yao and Fairy Zi Ling exchanged a glance, their expressions nervous yet somewhat expectant, and hurriedly followed Lin Fan closely.

The three of them stepped in and what came into view was a small, slightly raised altar.

In the center of the altar, there was a large hole emitting a dazzling blue light. The light was dazzling and mysterious, as if it was connected to another unknown world, attracting the three people to look in and explore.

At this moment, the light shield in the hall suddenly shattered with a "swish".

Immediately afterwards, three Nascent Soul cultivators walked in one after another.

They are the three masters of the righteous path.

The one walking in front was Wan Tianming, the leader of the Wanfa Sect, who had reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

The man was wearing a blue robe with fluttering sleeves and a stern face.

Following behind Wan Tianming was Tian Wuzi, an old Taoist with white hair and a youthful face and ruddy complexion.

His silver beard swayed gently as he walked, his eyes revealed wisdom and calmness, and his whole body exuded an immortal temperament.

The last person to come in was a dark and thin monk who looked like an old farmer.

He was hunched over, skinny, with dark and rough skin covered with crisscrossing grooves. He was dressed in coarse linen clothes, looking like an ordinary old country man.

"Lin Fan!"

Wan Tianming exclaimed and suddenly stood still, not knowing what to do.

Although he really wanted the Xu Tian Ding, his life was more important.

Ji Yin and Man Huzi both died. He didn't think he was stronger than Man Huzi. Even with the two early Nascent Soul cultivators beside him, he still had no confidence.

So, Wan Tianming hesitated for a moment, then turned around and left without any hesitation. Tian Wuzi and the thin and dark old farmer looked at each other, and followed Wan Tianming away.

Lin Fan saw Wan Tianming leave tactfully and did not make things difficult for him.

Then, he slapped the spirit beast bag, and with a whoosh, two blood jade spiders appeared on the ground.

Lin Fan ordered, "Go, use the spider silk to retrieve the small tripod from the cave."

The blood jade spider, having received the order, scrambled to the cave entrance and began to spit out spider silk, which slowly flowed down the cave entrance.

After a while, the spider silk wrapped around the Xu Tian Ding and pulled it upwards. As the Xu Tian Ding was pulled up, the hall shook.

Since these were two level five blood jade spiders, they pulled the tripod up without any effort.

The Xutian Ding is flat and round, with two ears and three legs. It is about four feet high and about ten feet in diameter. It is not very big. There is a layer of blue flame on the surface, which is the Qianlan Ice Flame.

There is a slightly convex round lid on the top, and various pictures such as insects, fish, animals, and numerous mountains, rivers, and trees are carved around it, although it looks simple and rough.

Lin Fan pinched his fingers and the Xutian Ding flew into his hand. He did not dare to delay and quickly wrapped the Xutian Ding with his huge magic power, and used a method of refining spiritual fire recorded in the "Xuan Yin Sutra" to refine the blue flame on the surface.

Half an hour later, relying on the powerful spiritual consciousness and magic power, he had initially refined the Qianlan Ice Flame. In a blink of an eye, the ice-blue flame on the surface turned into a misty blue, ice-blue bead.

Lin Fan raised his hand and took out an exquisite jade box. He carefully placed the beads into the jade box. Then, he slapped the storage bag. With a "whoosh", the Xu Tian Ding and the jade box were put into the storage bag by Lin Fan.
