Chapter 107 Sanqing Mountain and Jindan Cave
There are only three treasures on the light curtain.
A piece of wood that looks like it is glowing gives a feeling of vitality even when viewed through a light curtain.
The second item was a sword, which was glowing with spiritual light, but it was not sharpened and no one knew what it was.
The third item is a talisman.
"The reward for the Mixing Hole Technique?"
Liang Xiao was delighted: "Please introduce them to me, Principal. I don't recognize any of these treasures."
The red-haired principal smiled and nodded: "This treasure that looks like wood is a piece of Jianmu. It is said that the head principal snatched it from the cultivation world. You should have heard of Jianmu, right?"
"Jianmu? Could it be the tree in mythology?" Liang Xiao was shocked.
“That’s the tree.”
The red-haired principal smiled and said, "But it's not the tree in the myths and legends on our Earth, but the one in the world of cultivation. As far as I know, there is a giant tree in the world of cultivation that supports the entire world of cultivation. The tree is so big that it is unimaginable, but because its power is too terrifying, even immortals cannot get close to it. Only when some dead branches fall automatically every once in a while, the materials for Jianmu will flow out."
"So this piece of wood is a dead branch of Jianmu?"
Liang Xiao was very surprised: "What's the use of this thing?"
"In theory, it can be used to refine immortal tools. Of course, it won't turn into an immortal tool right away."
The red-haired principal explained: "Because the dead branches of Jianmu contain a trace of immortal rules, after being refined into a weapon, it can be slowly nurtured and eventually have a chance to become an immortal weapon."
"I don't know how long I have to wait." Liang Xiao regretted.
He didn't react much, but Cen Yi next to him was stunned.
"What kind of horrific contribution did the mountain master make that Daluo Academy would actually reward this legendary treasure?"
Cen Yi felt that her choice today might completely change her destiny.
"Then what is this unsharpened sword?" Liang Xiao asked curiously.
The red-haired principal explained: "This is a sword embryo, obtained from the ruins of Sanqing Mountain."
"Sanqing Mountain?"
Liang Xiao was puzzled: "What place is that?"
The red-haired principal paused for a moment, then showed a look of desire in his eyes, and said, "You should know that period of history, right? It is recorded in the textbooks that when we humans on Earth were on the verge of despair, those two people were digging up our ancestors' graves like crazy, and in a short period of time, they jumped from the Golden Core Stage to the Immortal Realm."
"Could that 'ancestral tomb' be Sanqing Mountain?" Liang Xiao's heart moved.
"Yes."
The red-haired principal said in a deep voice: "The cultivation world invaded the earth. From what I know, one of their targets is Sanqing Mountain. It seems that there are endless treasures and inheritances hidden there."
"Endless treasures and inheritance?"
Liang Xiao asked: "Could it be..."
"The reason why our Earth has been able to develop to this level in just over 200 years is that Sanqing Mountain accounts for at least 80% of the credit."
The red-haired principal confirmed Liang Xiao's guess: "One tenth of it depends on the efforts of us Earthlings, and the last tenth is the forbidden area [Jindan Cave]."
"What is the Jindan Cave?" Liang Xiao was stunned.
Forbidden place?
The place where this title can be used is definitely not simple.
"That is a strange place that only Jindan stage can enter."
Speaking of this, the red-haired principal's expression became a little solemn: "Only those in the Jindan stage can enter that place, but everyone who enters will lose their memory after coming out and will not be able to remember what happened in there."
Lost memory? Liang Xiao's heart skipped a beat. Why did he feel a sense of familiarity?
"But the amazing thing is that as long as you make it out alive, you will gain huge benefits."
The red-haired principal said, "Either his cultivation has been greatly improved, or he has obtained some incomprehensible treasure. In short, there must be good things in there, but unfortunately, it is impossible to enter actively."
"What does it mean that I can't enter actively?" Liang Xiao's face changed slightly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What it means is that the place will choose its own people."
The red-haired principal said solemnly, "Every once in a while, a Jindan-stage cultivator is sent in, and it cannot be stopped. We suspect that the Jindan Cave may be some kind of living weirdness, or a terrain-type demon, but this is just a guess, because some people have come out alive, and anyone who comes out alive can gain huge benefits, which is incomprehensible."
"As long as you come out alive, you can get huge benefits?"
Liang Xiao frowned, feeling that this was somewhat different from what happened to him in Changlin City.
I got out alive, but didn't gain any benefits.
Well, if it really counts, does my combat experience and muscle memory count?
But is the place I went to really the Jindan Cave?
He was very skeptical.
"Isn't there a specific location for the Jindan Cave?" he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, you can enter from a specific location and can only wander around the periphery."
The red-haired principal said, "However, there are also some treasures in the outer areas, so every year there will be many Jindan-stage people who go treasure hunting. Speaking of which, the time is almost up this year."
Liang Xiao had an idea and decided to go and see what was going on.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's continue talking about the sword embryo."
The red-haired principal continued to introduce, "This sword embryo was brought out from Sanqing Mountain by the chief steward of the Red Flame Cultivation Hall, but because the other party had a better choice, this sword embryo has been shelved. Now the value of the Mixed Hole Technique you handed in is immeasurable, so the higher-ups decided to use this sword embryo as one of the rewards."
Liang Xiao nodded: "Could this sword embryo also become an immortal weapon?"
"Theoretically, it is possible, but it requires gradual practice."
The red-haired principal replied: "If you have the same heaven-defying opportunity and potential as the head principal, you should be able to make it reach the level of an immortal weapon within a hundred years, but the prerequisite is that your own cultivation must be able to keep up."
It actually took a hundred years.
Liang Xiao looked at the last talisman: "What is this?"
"This is the Great Teleportation Talisman."
The red-haired principal said, "You should know that members of the Immortal Cult have small teleportation talismans, right?"
Liang Xiao nodded, but it was a pity that he had not obtained that kind of thing so far. However, he still had two storage bags of Yuanying stage powerhouses on him. He wondered if there were small teleportation talismans in them.
"This large teleportation talisman is an enhanced version of the small teleportation talisman."
The red-haired principal said, "After you sacrifice it, once you encounter a life-threatening danger, it will automatically take you through time and space. Theoretically, you can travel from the cultivation world to Earth, or from here to the cultivation world, but you need luck."
"In other words, this is a random teleportation?" Liang Xiao frowned.
"Indeed."
The red-haired principal said, "This Great Teleportation Talisman was also obtained from Mount Sanqing. Originally there were more than ten, but now there is only one left. It is very valuable. I originally intended to keep it for research, but because your contribution is so great, I plan to use it to save your life. Your life is more important than mine right now."
Cen Yi next to him was shocked again. What big thing did the mountain master do to make the Federation pay so much attention to it?
"Why not just give it to me directly?" Liang Xiao said.
"You think beautifully."
The red-haired principal curled his lips and said, "This talisman is as valuable as half a magical weapon. It can take people across the world. It's impossible to give it to you for free. However, if you can create another spell with a similar value to the "Mixed Hole Spell", the higher-ups should be happy to give you this as a reward."
Liang Xiao shook his head regretfully: "Then I choose the dead branch of Jianmu."
