Man is in the midst of the mysteries of the spirit, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Most monks require a stable output of spiritual power when casting spells. Once this chaos is involved, the spell will instantly collapse and will also backfire on the caster.

"This characteristic can be called... the nemesis of Taoism!"

For some reason, there was no prompt to unlock the entry flashing on the panel this time.

"Is it because the amount of chaotic spiritual energy is too small?"

An Le guessed in his heart: "Depending on the environment of the Abyss, each tempering can transform a small part of spiritual power. If I can bring this characteristic to the nearly half-finished spiritual power, my combat power... should undergo a drastic change."

After this little incident.

The journey of the four people then became unusually smooth. It was calm all the way and they only encountered monsters two or three times.

They were not very strong and were easily dealt with by them.

The tunnel dug by this earth dragon is indeed much safer than the outside world.

When Anle felt some changes in the space around him, Jiang Junliang spoke.

"We have arrived at the Moon Abyss."

Since they were going deeper and deeper into the dark passage and could not see the outside world, at first glance, the surrounding environment seemed to have not changed at all.

But Anle discovered with his keen perception that the temperature of the air... seemed to have dropped?

He stretched out his hand and touched the rock wall beside him. It felt extremely cold, like the ice and snow outside the cabin during an extreme cold spiritual disaster.

Jiang Junliang explained: "This is exactly Yue Yuan's characteristic."

"In the Star Abyss, there is the alternation of day and night, but in the Moon Abyss, there is only night. Similarly, in the Sun Abyss, there is only day."

"Generally speaking, there are more dangers at night than during the day, so if we really talk about the degree of danger, Moon Abyss is still more dangerous. Therefore, most of the bases of Taixu Palace are set up in Sun Abyss, and there are only a few in Moon Abyss."

Jiang Junliang looked at the rock wall covered with white frost not far away, and a look of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

The environment in which he worked at that time was similar to that of today.

It was in this bitter and cold place that he spent his most precious years, but in the end...

At this moment, Ye Ling'er frowned, looked into the depths of the passage extending downwards, and spoke softly.

"There seems to be something very disgusting over there."

Hearing this, Anle asked, "Senior Sister, do you want to take a detour?"

"Need not."

Ye Ling'er shook her head: "It's still far away, but we... better be careful."

As the four people continued to go deeper, the temperature in the passage dropped significantly, the ground became harder, they felt a slight chill on their bodies, and white air came out when they exhaled.

However, for cultivators, such temperature is nothing.

Even Cheng Yuemei, who had a weaker constitution, was not affected.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the front of the passage.

I couldn't sleep tonight.

Chapter 177 panel, add it to me!

The footsteps were light, but they could not be hidden from the monks' spiritual sense and echoed in this deep tunnel.

Jiang Junliang's expression changed slightly, and he was the first to show the aura of the Golden Core Stage, his eyes locked on the direction where the footsteps came from.

Anle and the other two also prepared for battle.

While they were on the road just now, Jiang Junliang mentioned to them that Xuyuan was equivalent to a world isolated from the real world, and it was difficult to locate a cultivator's whereabouts through magic. Many people would choose to hide in Xuyuan and avoid the limelight temporarily after provoking an irresistible force.

Given the long lifespan of immortal cultivators, it is not impossible for them to hide for hundreds of years before coming out again.

Therefore, this place is rife with greedy speculators, desperate criminals wanted by large sects, and incidents of murder and robbery are more frequent than in the outside world.

It is an absolute lawless place!

Of course, most cultivators would not take the initiative to attack and kill the disciples of Taixu Palace. Jiang Junliang was just guarding against the most extreme situation.

Soon, a cautious question came from the other side of the passage.

"I am Zhou Shuo, a disciple of Xuyuan Hall of Taixu Palace. I wonder who you are..."

Hearing this, Jiang Junliang's face showed joy, and his vigilance mostly disappeared.

Meeting disciples of Taixu Palace in a place like this is like meeting fellow villagers, and a sense of familiarity will naturally arise.

Anle frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "As expected, we bumped into each other again."

Soon, the two groups met.

There were six people headed by Zhou Shuo, all of them were Jindan-stage cultivators. They wore high-level robes issued by Taixu Palace, but these robes looked a little tattered, stained with dust and blood, as if they had experienced a fierce battle.

Seeing these robes, Jiang Junliang completely relaxed and said in a friendly manner.

"I am Jiang Junliang from the Lingzi Palace. I fell into the Abyss due to some accidents."

"I wonder which branch of Xuyuan's temple Fellow Daoist Zhou is serving in? Maybe I've been there before."

Zhou Shuosheng has a handsome appearance and a tall and strong stature, which makes people feel good about him, but his skin color is darker than that of ordinary people.

After confirming the identities of Anle and others, Zhou Shuo breathed a sigh of relief and spoke cheerfully.

"We are all from the Qinghan Branch Temple, but we encountered a fourth-level monster not long ago and got separated from the main group."

"Qinghan Branch Hall?"

Jiang Junliang's eyes lit up: "What a coincidence! I have worked there before. How is Palace Master Li now?"

Hearing this, Zhou Shuo's face flashed a little strange, but he quickly recovered and smiled, "Palace Master is fine, and his cultivation has improved recently."

Jiang Junliang asked again: "Does Fellow Daoist Zhou know Fellow Daoist Zhang Haiyun? He is my good friend in the Qinghan Branch Hall."

Zhou Shuo scratched his head apologetically: "We have just been transferred to the Qinghan Branch Hall, and we are not very familiar with some of the Taoist friends..."

"Oh I got it."

Jiang Junliang seemed to be thinking about something, then continued the conversation enthusiastically.

After they became familiar with each other, Zhou Shuo said naturally.

"Since we are all disciples of Taixu Palace, we should help each other. Brother Jiang, why don't you come with us? This will also help you return to the world faster."

Ye Ling'er immediately responded: "Okay, okay."

Although she always felt that these people in front of her were a little strange, her desire to return to Taixu Palace as soon as possible overcame this doubt.

Cheng Yuemei also nodded happily.

Who doesn’t want to escape from danger as soon as possible and return to the safe and peaceful main city of Taixu Palace?

Jiang Junliang declined and said, "We actually have some private tasks to complete, so I won't bother you anymore."

Zhou Shuo laughed, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Then we should lend a hand. There is strength in numbers!"

"Brother Daoist Jiang and I hit it off right away, so please don't offend me."

Hearing this, Jiang Junliang couldn't refuse and could only go with them.

Anle saw all of this, his face expressionless, but in his heart he knew everything.

******

As they went deeper into the tunnel, the coldness around them became increasingly intense.

The rock formations are greyish white in colour and cracks can often be seen.

Cheng Yuemei, who had a weak constitution, trembled slightly and was forced to light a spiritual fire to keep warm.

Ordinary people would probably be frozen to death if they were in it.

According to Zhou Shuo's estimation, this place is still quite a distance away from Riyuan. In addition, the tunnel opened up by this earth dragon is not a straight road, but winding, which caused them to take many detours, further increasing the time consumed.

So after discussion, they decided to take a break and start again after adjusting to the best condition.

It seemed to be just as Zhou Shuo said, he felt like he had known Jiang Junliang for a long time from the first sight, took him very seriously, and even brought him to his side to roast fire and eat together.

On the other hand, there was another fire next to Anle, but it was cold and deserted, with no one paying attention to it.

After all, his apparent realm was only foundation building, which was almost not worth mentioning in the eyes of Jindan.

Ye Ling'er also concealed her aura, only showing the level of a golden elixir.

However, this situation just happened to suit Anle's wishes. He sat quietly beside Ye Ling'er and Cheng Yuemei and used his spiritual power to force the sound into their ears.

"Senior Sister, Fellow Daoist Cheng, no matter what I say next, don't make any sound and keep doing what you did before."

The two were startled at first, and then quickly calmed down.

Among the cultivators who can achieve the Golden Elixir, almost none of them are fools.

Anle continued: "Zhou Shuo and the others are fakes."

Cheng Yuemei's self-control was a little poor and she almost screamed out loud. Fortunately, Anle had given her some precautions beforehand, so she was able to control her facial expression.

But the surprise in my heart was like a huge wave, surging constantly and difficult to calm.

“This… this is impossible, right?”

"Isn't Brother Jiang still having a good conversation with them?"

Cheng Yuemei couldn't see any flaws in Zhou Shuo and others' clothing, appearance, and words, and for a moment she couldn't help but doubt Anle's judgment.

Ye Ling'er's expression did not change at all, and she replied in the same way.

"Junior brother, how did you know?"

Anle had long anticipated Cheng Yuemei's distrust. She was not the key to the matter. It was enough to let the second senior sister understand this.

"From just now on, they have been taking turns to monitor me. They probably thought that my foundation-building spiritual consciousness couldn't detect it."

Of course, Anle couldn't tell everyone about his experience in the simulation, so he found an excuse.

"Their eyes... are full of malice. They are definitely not disciples of Taixu Palace."

Ye Ling'er's spiritual consciousness moved, and she discovered those people's vague gazes on her.

In fact, Ye Ling'er had some doubts before, and combined with her understanding of Anle, she now believed it about 80% and said in shock and anger.

"Someone actually dared to pretend to be a disciple of Taixu Palace? What on earth do they want to do?"

******

Zhou Shuo, who was dragging Jiang Junliang to roast by the fire, had a flashing look in his eyes and said in his heart.

"This Jiang Junliang is a smart man. He seems to have noticed something."

"However, your companions know nothing about this.

Zhou Shuo glanced at Anle and the other two not far away and saw Ye Ling'er still eating the roasted monster meat in big mouthfuls, with a look of enjoyment on her face.

He sneered in his heart: "Oh, how stupid."

"The cultivators of Taixu Palace are no more than this."

Zhou Shuo's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "There doesn't seem to be much useful information on Jiang Junliang. It's time..."

At this moment, Cheng Yuemei, who was beside the fire, blushed a little and said softly, "I want to go to the side and clean my body."

Although the cleaning talisman can achieve a cleansing effect in an instant, its effect on a few parts is limited. For female practitioners with higher requirements, other cleaning methods are still needed.

Hearing this, Zhou Shuo snorted in his heart: "Humph, women are trouble!"

“But this is also a great opportunity.”

He gave a slight signal with his eyes, and the female cultivator next to him named Ling Xuan immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Cheng, this tunnel is still somewhat dangerous. We also want to clean it up a bit, so why don't we go together?"

Among their group of six, there were three female cultivators, and they all nodded.

Ye Ling'er said carelessly: "Then I'll come too."

Soon, the five women walked into the depths of the passage together and their backs disappeared.

However, after a while, the five of them still did not return.

Zhou Shuo was surprised: "One Jindan early stage, one Jindan middle stage, does it take so long?"
