C26 Inside the Celestial Enchantment Cave

While Lu Qingfeng was cultivating the fifth level of the Five Elements True Understanding, the surrounding heaven and earth origin energy was far from being able to satisfy the circulation of the mental cultivation method. Around his body, it had turned into a vacuum, with no more heaven and earth origin energy left for him to absorb. The crystals quickly turned into powder and in the blink of an eye, a thousand crystals had been absorbed.

He remembered that when he was in the God Breaking Mountain Range, the primeval essence in his body was exhausted and only needed a hundred crystals to fill it up. Now that a thousand crystals had turned to dust, he still felt that the primeval essence in his body was still far from being fully filled.

At the Divine State Auction House, he had spent 30,000 to buy a piece of Deep Sea Heavy Silver. Just now, he had spent one thousand and had only 31,500 crystals left, so he felt that these crystals would at least allow him to reach the state of being full of true essence.

Without any hesitation, he took out another 2000 crystals and it was quickly absorbed completely. When Lu Qingfeng's storage ring only had 10,000 crystals left, the true essence within his body finally reached its peak state.

After six hours of continuous absorption, the twenty-two thousand five hundred crystals were all used up. He stood up and looked up to the top of the Sky Stairway without hesitation. Step by step, firm and powerful, he walked up to the 50th step without pause, maintaining a constant speed until he finally reached the peak.

When Lu Qingfeng's feet stepped onto the peak, he suddenly felt as though his feet had lightened. His entire being felt incomparably relaxed, and the heavy feeling from before suddenly disappeared.

Looking around, Lu Qingfeng saw a huge platform. This platform was also made of bluestone and had a radius of two miles. As he observed, he lifted his foot and walked towards the center of the platform.

The entire platform was covered in mist and the visibility was very low. If he didn't use his spiritual sense, he could only see seven to eight meters. Here we are. He didn't dare to casually use his soul consciousness. If he really met a bad-tempered super expert and was hit by the opponent's soul consciousness, his own soul would be injured.

Currently, there were two chairs at the north side of the platform and two middle-aged men were sitting on them. They were talking to each other using the Voice Transmission Technique: "Senior brother Guo, it's this youth called Lu Qingfeng. He beat up his nephew yesterday, and I told Ru Bing to tell them to guard against his revenge.

"Ru Bing also went to my place yesterday and told me about this young man. She said that this young man's martial arts are extremely strange, and that you saw it too. Is that true?"

"I saw it yesterday, it was indeed very strange. I've never seen such a martial skill before. Senior brother Guo, perhaps he had some fortuitous encounters."

"Let's not talk about this first. Junior brother Xu, out of the ten elders, you're the only one who hasn't had a disciple. What do you think about this Lu Qingfeng?"

"I think this young man is pretty good, and you're saying that I really like her, but when I go to look for him later, doesn't the sect have a rule that states that if someone ascends to the top in the disciple recruitment examination, they can directly become a true disciple?"

"There is indeed such a rule. I will first disperse the mist, and then lay down the formation. I will go with you to find him." With that, Elder Guo stood up. "He extended his right index finger and pointed it at all directions. At the same time, a blinding light appeared in all eight directions. Each ray of light rose up towards the top of the platform and spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, each ray of light turned into a transparent layer of light. The film quickly expanded and the eight layers of light connected together.

As these eight layers of light gathered together, the dense white mist on the platform rapidly floated into the air, so fast that even Lu Qingfeng's naked eyes would not be able to track its trajectory. Just when he was astonished, the white mist on the entire platform had already disappeared.

In the direction facing the Sky Stairway, which was to the west of the platform, was a cliff. At the bottom of the cliff, there was an irregular looking hole. The hole was very big, and it would not be a problem for dozens of people to enter side by side.

Lu Qingfeng calmly observed his surroundings. From the north side of the platform, two middle-aged men walked over. One of them was tall and sturdy, while the other was thin. These two people were Brother Guo and Junior Xu. The tall and sturdy man was Brother Guo, and the skinny man was Junior Xu.

Lu Qingfeng turned his head and looked at the two approaching people. They were both dressed in long golden robes, with purple cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs and the bottom of their sleeves. From his understanding of the Greencloud Sword Sect, Lu Qingfeng knew that these were two elders of the sect. The Greencloud Sword Sect had a total of ten Elders, who knew what rank these two would be.

There was still some distance between them. The two elders looked at Lu Qingfeng, and a smile appeared on their faces. Lu Qingfeng was sure that they were here for him, so he hurriedly took two steps forward. Clasping his fists, he bowed and said: "Lu Qingfeng greets the two elders. I wonder what the elders are here for?"

The skinny junior brother Xu said, "Let me introduce you first. The person beside me is my sect's head elder, Guo Tianshan. My name is Xu Rujun, and I am ranked last amongst the top ten elders. "

Lu Qingfeng quickly bowed again: "Qingfeng greets Elder Guo, Elder Xu." Xu Rujun waved her hand and said, "You're going to become a disciple of my sect soon. If you become my, Xu Rujun's, disciple, then remember, don't be so formal."

Next, Xu Ru Jun continued, "For countless years, our sect has only recruited disciples. When you ascend the Heaven Stairway, as long as you ascend to the top, you can directly become a Successor Disciple. It had been almost 10,000 years since a new disciple had ascended to the top, and this rule was about to be forgotten. "Think about it, how is it going to continue after you close the Bewitching Immortal Cave?"

Lu Qingfeng did not hesitate at all. He immediately said, "There's no need to think about it. With the Immortal Disenchanting Cave passing, Qingfeng must pass."

"Good, good." Guo Tianshan and Xu Rujun said almost at the same time. "The two of us will wait for you at the entrance of the Bewitching Immortal Cave."

Not long after the two elders left, several dozen figures suddenly appeared in the center of the square. These people did not have any true essence within their bodies and were looking around in confusion. Lu Qingfeng instantly understood the reason.

Lu Qingfeng counted a total of thirty people, including himself. These people had to do the same as him; they had all entered the Bewitching Immortal Cave. What Lu Qingfeng did not understand was that these people were already past level 1500 and were already destined to become true disciples. Why did they need to set up the Bewitching Cave?

Just as Lu Qingfeng was puzzled by this, Xu Ru Jun came to the center of the platform and stood in front of these people. Xu Ru Jun said, "Next, the thirty of you will begin to enter the Immortal Nether Cave. According to the time you take, the top ten will receive different rewards."

Finished speaking, Xu Ru Jun moved to the side and pointed at the Enchanted Immortal Cave, indicating that everyone could enter. The others had just come up and had not had the time to recover their true energy. Lu Qingfeng had just broken through to the Mysterious Truth realm and was brimming with true energy. Thus, whether it was true essence or cultivation, both of them far surpassed others. With a speed far faster than others, he instantly rushed into the Bewitching Immortal Cave.

Upon entering the cave, Lu Qingfeng had been stunned. Outside, the cave entrance was pitch black, but upon entering, it was filled with a milky white mist. Lu Qingfeng tried to scan it with his Spiritual Sense and only found nothing special when he was hundreds of miles away. He instantly understood the gist of it. This Bewitching Cave couldn't possibly be this big. The only possibility was that he was hallucinating.

He didn't know how long he had walked for, but there was still a milky white fog in front of him. He didn't walk any further, and this way, he wouldn't have any end. He sat down where he was, thinking about how to get out of the predicament in front of him.

Just as Lu Qingfeng was struggling to come up with a solution, a gentle voice of a young girl came out from his chest: "Big Brother Qingfeng, isn't this an illusory magic array? "Nothing remarkable." As his voice faded, a 'sou' sound was emitted from the bosom of Lu Qingfeng. The Three-eyed Spirit Fox scuttled out and landed on the ground. It instantly transformed into a slim and beautiful young girl.

Even in the form of a human, it was still as delicate and exquisite as its original form, less than 1.60m in height. A snow-like long skirt dragged down to the ground, and on the oval face, there was a pair of large golden eyes. In the middle of the forehead, there was a single vertical eye, and it was currently closed.

Ever since Lu Qingfeng saved the Three-Eyed Spirit Fox in the God Breaking Mountain, it had been sleeping in Lu Qingfeng's embrace. Now, it had been almost a year, but today, not only had it awakened from its sleep, it had even transformed into a human. This also meant that the Three-Eyed Spirit Fox's cultivation had reached the sixth stage. However, what Lu Qingfeng could not understand was how a Spiritual Beast like the Three-Eyed Fox had appeared in the world of Magic Beasts. Lu Qingfeng did not care about this question. Furthermore, this was not the time to ask about it.

He looked at the Three Eyes Spirit Fox and sized it up for a moment. "Since you've taken human form, I can't call you that anymore. I'll call you Ling'er from now on. What do you think?"

"Alright!" The Three Eye Spirit Fox said excitedly, "I remember my mother calls me that too." Lu Qingfeng resisted the urge to ask further, because time was of the essence and he couldn't think of anything else. He asked: "Ling'er, you said that this is an illusory magic array, so it's not that extraordinary. You mean that you can break this illusory magic array?"

Ling'er smiled and nodded. "This is my talent. I know that big brother Qing Feng is short on time, but breaking this illusion array is more important. Big brother Qing Feng, follow me."
