Chapter 90 Changes in the Mountains Time passed slowly in the mountains, and before I knew it, another month had passed. Peace had finally returned to Beiquan Mountain. As the underground demonic energy was continuously transformed into spiritual energy, the spiritual energy in the mountains became more and more abundant, as if just taking a breath could make you feel refreshed. Beiquanshan is growing faster. In the panel within the sea of consciousness, the blessing of the spiritual energy like a pool had unconsciously changed to the second level. The spiritual energy provided was even more refined, and the true essence in the major acupoints in Gu Yuanqing's body had already been complete. Within the Dao fetus created by the secret treasure, the true essence had already turned into a surging river, nourishing the growth of the Dao within this world. In this world, spiritual energy is scarce. To accumulate true essence to such a level from the Daotai realm, one would have to consume countless natural treasures and accumulate countless years of resources. However, Gu Yuanqing only spent less than two months. Even the Dao essence accumulated from Guanshan's current comprehension is enough to support the Dao fetus to complete its transformation, bring about the Yin Fire Tribulation, and become a Dao Fire Realm cultivator. However, he was not in a hurry about it. He had only been practicing in the Daotai realm for a short time. After his spiritual transformation, he had new insights in his daily practice. The Daotai realm could still accumulate more Dao essence to lay a more solid foundation. A building that is tall needs a solid foundation. Otherwise, if it can only build a three-inch platform and stop there, it would be a joke. In Beiquan Mountain, the spiritual spring flowing from the spiritual vein has turned into a trickle and accumulated into a pool.
As the spiritual spring seeped into the soil and nourished the surrounding areas, the trees, flowers and plants became more lush, and the newly grown shoots were bright green, even making people salivate at the sight of them. Under the nourishment of spiritual energy, these trees also began to slowly transform into spiritual flowers, spiritual herbs, and spiritual trees. Feng Tao now fetches water from a sacred pond in the mountains instead of from the mountainside as before. The water in the pond was clear and sweet. After taking a sip, she felt refreshed and all her illnesses disappeared. Even though she was not well-informed, she knew that this was nothing ordinary. At first, she only used the water from the Lingtan for drinking, and used the rest from the spring on the mountainside. But gradually she found that the water in the pond could not be used up, so she stopped going to the mountainside to fetch water. She was in the mountains, breathing spiritual energy and drinking spiritual water every day. Although she had just started her practice, her physical condition was much better than before. She could walk briskly even with a large bucket of water. The sacred pond in the mountain is divided into two levels. The first level is a deep pool formed by the spring, which is used for drinking by Gu Yuanqing and Feng Tao. About ten feet down, the spiritual water gathered into a pool, which became a drinking water place for all the beasts in the mountains. Every day one could see birds and beasts fighting openly and secretly for the spiritual spring, especially a goshawk and a group of monkeys, who fought almost every day, until the sky was dark and feathers were flying. Later, with Gu Yuanqing's intervention, the animals gradually formed an order and staggered their drinking times. The birds and beasts that live in Beiquan Mountain, after being nourished by the spiritual energy and springs, all have shiny fur, are extremely strong, and are three times larger in size than before. They have become the overlords of their respective populations in the surrounding mountains. As more and more spiritual energy appeared in the mountain, Gu Yuanqing's Taoism became more and more profound, and his connection with Beiquan Mountain became closer and closer. Beiquan Mountain grew faster and faster, and the entire spiritual mountain became heavier and heavier. There were more and more broken cracks at the bottom of the mountain, and the demonic energy that seeped out naturally increased. The spiritual energy that was transformed also increased day by day. As time went on, Beiquan Mountain grew faster and faster. The forbidden army camp at the foot of the mountain. "General, do you feel that Beiquan Mountain is taller?" A sergeant asked hesitantly. Zhang Zhuo didn't take it seriously at first, but when he glanced at the viewing pavilion in the mountains and then at the Hongyan Mountain Waterfall next to it, he couldn't help but take two steps forward, looked up and looked carefully, comparing it with his previous impressions. In an instant, a look of astonishment appeared on his face. "It seems to be true, General. When I stood here before, I could see the tree ten feet below the top of the Hongyan Mountain Waterfall. But now I can only see a little bit of the top of the waterfall." "A few days ago I said that each step of the stairs at Beiquan Mountain seemed a little higher, and you thought I was talking nonsense."
Another sergeant interrupted. Will the mountain grow taller? Zhang Zhuo felt that this simply broke his common sense, but he couldn't help but believe it when the facts were in front of him. "Is Beiquan Mountain going to become a fairy mountain? These days, I have been practicing here for a month, which is almost equivalent to a year." "Geng Feng, do you feel the same way? I thought I had seen the battle between masters and had gained enlightenment recently, so my cultivation speed has increased!" "By the way, have you noticed the monkeys in the mountains? They look completely different now. I've noticed the Monkey King before, and he's at least half the size he is now." A team of soldiers talked about what happened in the mountain one by one. When all the information was put together, even a fool would know that Beiquan Mountain was different. Zhang Zhuo is different from others. As a general of the imperial guards, he is the only one leading the team to garrison here and knows many things that others don't know. At the same time, he had the sixth level of Zhenwu cultivation. Although he could not materialize the Zhenwu wonderland, he could use the Zhenwu secret treasure in his body to slightly sense the difference of Beiquan Mountain. Therefore, when he was healing that day, he entered Beiquan Mountain. "Okay, it's enough for you to know these, and don't spread them around." Zhang Zhuo said in a deep voice. "promise!" Zhang Zhuo returned to the military tent, dismissed his subordinates, picked up paper and pen and was about to write a letter. At this time, a confidant walked in quietly. He leaned close to Zhang Zhuo and whispered, "General, you are not going to report the situation here at this time, are you?" Zhang Zhuo frowned and said, "Of course. As the garrison officer here, I should report any unusual events at Beiquan Mountain immediately." “General, have you ever thought about this? The master above the Red Dragon Sect’s Grandmaster has not been destroyed yet. His goal is to seal the various Demon Realms. This time, even Deputy Commander Liu did not come here. Only the general is here to guard this place. It is obvious that you are too upright and some people do not like you. Therefore, sending you here is clearly abandoning a pawn! The situation is generally stable now. With Master Gu on the mountain, the masters of the Red Dragon Sect dare not come here to cause trouble. If the general reports this matter, it may not be our turn to guard this place. Guarding Beiquan Mountain and sealing this place is a tough job, but if this place becomes a holy place for cultivation, it will be different. Not to mention other guards and the Demon Suppression Division, there are so many noble children in my Divine Eagle Guard who are flocking to it. " "But..." Zhang Zhuo still hesitated. "General, we are guarding the seal of the Demon Realm, but the seal has not been moved and the Red Dragon Cult has not appeared. As for the changes in the mountain, your Excellency also told us not to care about it, right?" Zhang Zhuo hesitated for a moment, sighed, and put the pen back into the pen holder. The confidant was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, General. We are not violating military orders. Don't worry, I will tell my brothers to keep their mouths shut and not to let any rumors leak out." …… Gu Yuanqing withdrew his gaze calmly. At this moment, he could sense an area of nearly twenty miles outside Beiquan Mountain, but the further he went out, the vaguer the sense became. As for the fact that the imperial guards at the foot of the mountain borrowed the spiritual energy of Beiquan Mountain to practice, he did not care. The mountain was rich in spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy that these soldiers who were not even at the high level of Zhenwu could absorb was just a drop in the bucket, not even as much as the spiritual energy that escaped from Beiquan Mountain. As for whether or not the changes in the mountain would cause trouble if they were spread, he didn't take it to heart. In this world, who else could snatch Beiquan Mountain from him? As his perception became farther and farther, he was no longer just observing the way of Beiquan Mountain, but began to "look" at the outside world. Strands of Tao energy converge in the Tao fetus, and a little bit of Tao and reason linger in the heart. Combining the understanding of the world from past and present lives, one begins to slowly analyze this world. There were also cracks at the bottom of Beiquan Mountain that kept appearing and then disappearing, and the process of the demonic energy being cleansed by the power of Beiquan Mountain and transformed into spiritual energy, all of which gave him a completely different experience from the ordinary experience of observing the mountain and gaining enlightenment. All these made the Dao essence in his Dao fetus gradually stronger. He was intoxicated by this feeling. Every bit of transformation in his Dao fetus would bring him a sense of satisfaction that could not be achieved by any mundane affairs! (End of this chapter)
