Chapter 1130: 47. Mysterious Heavenly Water
Entering the stone door, a long stone path lay ahead.
The group advanced along the stone path, finding debris everywhere, and the spirit grass by the roadside had long been picked by earlier cultivators.
Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo scanned with their divine senses and saw that it was the same all the way to the end.
"Let's head to the second stone door," Luo Shu suggested. Moving at their speed, it would take at least half a month to reach the second stone door along this path. If there were good things along the way, taking it slow wouldn't matter, but seeing it all empty is just a waste of time.
The group turned their gaze to Yaen Yue, seeking his opinion. Since they were family, there wouldn't naturally be any objections.
"I have no problem. You decide," Yaen Yue quickly expressed. He didn't want to separate from them; traveling alone was truly uninteresting.
"Then it's decided," Luo Shu said as Lu Hanmo already unleashed his divine sense to envelop the group.
The next moment, they found themselves at the second door.
Here, just like at the first stone door, a dozen cultivators blocked the way. However, unlike the first door, their cultivation level was slightly higher.
"Stop!" one of the cultivators shouted coldly upon seeing Lu Lanxi and the others.
But the next moment, he cowered, "Please proceed!" He sensed the formidable power from the young couple, a strength that made his soul tremble. How dare he provoke such terrifying beings?
"Dad! Mom! These cultivators are really awful. The ones at the first stone door not only snatched things but also wanted to seize female cultivators," Lu Lanxi said. If it hadn't been for the powerful strength of her parents, she was sure they would have attempted to rob them.
"No way. We are kind-hearted people," the cultivator shook his head in fright. The strength of this young couple was beyond measure; killing them would be a piece of cake.
Lu Hanmo glanced at the cultivators in front of him. In the world of true cultivation, the strong bullied the weak, which was normal, but robbing female cultivators was something he found distasteful.
With a wave of his hand, the cultivators all sat on the ground powerlessly. Although he detested their actions, he was not a murderer. Abolishing their cultivation was a lesson for them.
"Thank you, senior, for sparing our lives," the cultivators, though inwardly hating, had no power to resist. They were as insignificant as ants to their opponents even before being crippled.
Entering the second stone door, the divine spirit energy here was noticeably richer than at the first stone door.
Scanning with their divine senses, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo led the group to a dried-up pool.
"There's a shielding formation here," Lu Lanxi and Lu Xuanye immediately sensed the presence of the formation.
"Yes!" Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo smiled and nodded. Being able to spot the formation at a glance showed that Xixi and Yeye's formation skills had improved significantly.
"Let me unlock it," Lu Xuanye said as he threw down a formation flag.
As the flag fell, ripples like waves appeared in front of everyone.
The ripples soon dissipated, revealing that the previously dry pool was now full of water.
"This is Mysterious Heavenly Water!" Yaen Yue exclaimed in shock. He had only heard of the Mysterious Heavenly Water in the Green Mountain Secret Realm and never expected to see it, let alone a full pool. This water could level you up with just a sip!
"Brother Yun Han, do you have a magical treasure for storing water?" Lu Lanxi asked Yun Han.
Yun Han nodded and handed a gourd to Lu Lanxi. He had crafted this gourd treasure initially for storing wine.
Lu Lanxi stepped forward, filled one-sixth of the gourd with Mysterious Heavenly Water, and walked over to Yaen Yue, "Here, take this, Yaen Yue."
"No! I can't take this much. Just give me ten drops," Yaen Yue waved his hand. He hadn't contributed much, so he felt undeserving to take so much of the Mysterious Heavenly Water.
"Just take it," Luo Shu said. Since Yaen Yue was with them, they couldn't let him suffer a loss. While Mysterious Heavenly Water was valuable, having too much of it would be useless since one person could only benefit from a single sip of such leveling Heaven and Earth treasures.
"I haven't done much, how can I take so much?" Yaen Yue said embarrassedly.
"Since we formed a team, we are as one. Whatever we take, you take the same, no need to be polite," Lu Lanxi insisted, placing the gourd in Yaen Yue's hand.
"Then I'll gratefully accept," Yaen Yue said embarrassedly as he accepted the gourd.
The group divided the remaining Mysterious Heavenly Water into five shares, each taking one.
"Dad, Mom, I want to advance my level before going elsewhere," Lu Lanxi said. She was eager for strength but didn't dare to advance too quickly, as her state of mind wasn't stable, and rapid advancement could lead to inner demons.
Unlike her parents, her cultivation journey had been smooth sailing since childhood. Moreover, in recent years she was mostly on Yuan Star and hadn't trained her state of mind. Though her mother brewed elixirs to enhance her state of mind, she still preferred to slowly forge and improve it.
"I feel the same," Lu Xuanye agreed. He shared the same thoughts as Xixi.
"Okay!" Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo agreed.
Luo Shu took out six meditation cushions and distributed them to the group.
Lu Lanxi sat down on a meditation cushion, took a sip from the gourd, and closed her eyes, entering a state of cultivation.
The others also drank the Mysterious Heavenly Water and entered the cultivation state simultaneously.
Time flew by as the group focused on their cultivation.
Lu Lanxi opened her eyes, excitement shining in them, and looked towards her parents and Lu Xuanye, who were chatting nearby, "Dad, Mom, Brother, I've advanced!" This Mysterious Heavenly Water was truly extraordinary; just a sip had raised her cultivation level by one tier. Next, she needed to work on enhancing her state of mind.
