Five Elements Sacred Secret

Chapter 400: 9 Forbidden Land

"Do you think we can win?" Mu Xiaofeng picked up a glass of wine, drank it all, and asked.

Han Jiang looked into the distance with a thoughtful look on his face. He picked up a glass of wine and drank it, but did not say anything.

……

Three days later, they met again, but this time they met in front of a mysterious and ancient array gate. This array gate was the only passage leading to the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.

At this time, Xiao Wenzhi was standing quietly in front of the formation, waiting for the arrival of the two.

Mu Xiaofeng looked around and found that there were no other figures around. He couldn't help but feel puzzled. He frowned, looked at Xiao Wenzhi, and asked, "Are we the only two who want to enter this secret realm?"

Xiao Wenzhi smiled and nodded, and replied: "Yes, because you are a special case, only two of you can enter."

As he spoke, Xiao Wenzhi took out two crystal clear jade slips from his arms and handed them to the two. He said seriously, "When you want to leave, just crush them and you will be able to teleport out. There is no time limit for entering the Jiuxiao Secret Realm this time. I hope you can practice well in it and strive to break through to the True Transformation Realm as soon as possible."

Mu Xiaofeng took the jade slip and nodded slightly to show that he understood.

Then, Xiao Wenzhi's expression became serious, and he solemnly reminded: "In the extreme north of the Jiuxiao Secret Realm, there is a place called the Jiuxiao Forbidden Land. There are huge dangers there, so don't set foot there lightly."

"Why is this?" Mu Xiaofeng frowned and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"That place is actually a dangerous place. Although there are opportunities, there are more dangers and crises. The rules there are abnormal all year round, and once you enter, you can never get out. Therefore, we listed it as a forbidden area. Over the years, thousands of disciples have entered it, but only one person was able to come out alive. Therefore, under normal circumstances, we will prohibit disciples in the sect from entering that place." Xiao Wenzhi explained in detail.

Mu Xiaofeng and Han Jiang nodded their heads to show their understanding. Xiao Wenzhi didn't mean to completely forbid them from entering. His meaning was that there were both opportunities and dangers in that place, so they should try not to set foot there.

At this time, Han Jiang took out a jade slip from his arms, handed it to Mu Xiaofeng, and said: "This jade slip, as long as I crush it, you can sense my existence. And after you refine it, if I crush it, you will also be able to sense it. In this way, we can notify each other when we leave Jiuxiao Secret Realm."

Mu Xiaofeng took the jade slip and used his spiritual sense to investigate it, and found that it was indeed true. He refined the jade slip and put it into the ring.

Seeing that everything was ready, Xiao Wenzhi brought the two to the gate of the formation, activated the formation, and sent them into the Jiuxiao Secret Realm.

When Mu Xiaofeng stepped into the Jiuxiao Secret Realm, he immediately felt a strong spiritual energy coming towards him. The concentration of spiritual energy here was much higher than that of the outside world, which made him feel very comfortable.

Han Jiang was no longer in his consciousness, which meant that Han Jiang and he were in different places. Mu Xiaofeng directly began to look for the place with the most abundant spiritual energy.

Mu Xiaofeng's retreat this time has only one purpose, which is to improve his cultivation.

Since he had the special ability to sense spiritual energy, it was easy for him to find a place with rich spiritual energy. This time, he found another valley where the spiritual energy was extremely thick, almost condensed into fog. After entering, Mu Xiaofeng found that it was pitch dark, and when he scanned with his spiritual sense, he was surprised to find that there was condensed liquid spiritual fluid underground.

"This is it!" Mu Xiaofeng nodded with satisfaction, and then began to arrange the formation. Then, he took out five spiritual veins without hesitation. With the appearance of the five spiritual veins, the concentration of spiritual energy around soared again and became more and more dense. At this time, Mu Xiaofang slowly sat down cross-legged.

Mu Xiaofeng completely let go of his absorption of spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy around him flowed into his body like water. A huge spiritual energy vortex gradually emerged above his head, and his cultivation level also improved at an astonishing speed. Soon, he successfully broke through to the ninth level of Cheng Ding. However, at this moment, Mu Xiaofeng suddenly opened his eyes, and after waking up, he found that the spiritual energy around him, which was originally as thick as white mist, had obviously become much thinner.

Seeing this scene, Mu Xiaofeng secretly complained in his heart: "This can't go on!"

The spiritual energy emitted by the spiritual veins was too slow to meet his absorption needs. Therefore, Mu Xiaofeng decisively scattered a formation flag and quickly set up a spiritual binding formation. Then, he sacrificed the Three Life Spear and smashed the five spiritual veins one by one without hesitation. Although this was a bit wasteful, the concentration of spiritual energy increased significantly in an instant.

Mu Xiaofeng entered a state of retreat again. A month passed quietly, and Mu Xiaofeng suddenly realized something was wrong. Although he had been absorbing spiritual energy continuously, his cultivation stagnated after reaching the peak of Chengding, and there was no further progress. The Liangyi Diagram was madly absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy, but his cultivation showed no sign of improvement.

Mu Xiaofeng carefully checked the World Tree and confirmed that it was not the World Tree's problem. However, no matter how hard he tried, his cultivation level remained unchanged. After a long period of searching and thinking, Mu Xiaofeng still could not find the problem.

With no other options, Mu Xiaofeng could only continue to practice.

Three months have passed...

Six months have passed...

A year has passed……

A whole year passed by in a flash, and Mu Xiaofeng's cultivation still showed no progress.

Mu Xiaofeng stopped practicing, but his cultivation did not improve at all. He keenly realized that this was not due to insufficient spiritual energy, but other unknown factors. However, Mu Xiaofeng was still unable to determine what caused this situation.

After some thought, Mu Xiaofeng decided to find Han Jiang, hoping to find a solution to the problem or understand the possible reasons from him. He took out Han Jiang's communication beads and sent a few messages, but he did not receive a reply.

After thinking for a while, Mu Xiaofeng suddenly remembered the forbidden land of Jiuxiao in the far north that Xiao Wenzhi had mentioned. It was said that there were many opportunities and chances hidden there, which might help him break through the bottleneck and improve his cultivation. Once this thought appeared in his mind, it became stronger and stronger, as if an invisible force was attracting him to that mysterious place.

Gradually, the word "chance" was the only thing left in Mu Xiaofeng's mind, and the madness in his eyes became more intense. He seemed to have made up his mind to explore the legendary forbidden land of Jiuxiao.

Having made up his mind, Mu Xiaofeng directly summoned the Phantom Star Shuttle without even putting away the formation, and headed directly to the Far North.

It took a month of full-speed flight at the speed of the Phantom Star Shuttle.

Mu Xiaofeng got out of the Phantom Star Shuttle and looked at the area in front of him.
