First Entering the Tianxing Domain

Chapter 21

In the cold winter months, Li Changmeng was walking alone in the wind and snow.

He had been in the mountains for three days, and now he finally arrived in front of the Tianxing Domain.

Sensing carefully, a light curtain that ordinary people couldn't see hung down from the sky, extending to an unknown distance on both sides.

"This must be that formation. When I was reading books in Baiyun Mountain, I didn't believe the description of this formation. But now that I see it with my own eyes, I'm really shocked."

The Tianxing Domain was extremely vast, and this formation encompassed the entire Tianxing Domain, showing how magnificent it was.

Seeing the light curtain, Li Changmeng reached out and touched it. It was like passing through a layer of water film, and he easily passed through it.

Then, he leaped in.

There wasn't any obvious difference on both sides of the light curtain, except that the spiritual energy was a little denser.

"I thought there would be some other miraculous things. I was wrong. Such a large formation is already extraordinary just by its existence. How can I expect any other changes?"

Li Changmeng didn't have a map of the Tianxing Domain, but as long as he walked in one direction, he would surely meet people.

"Thinking about it carefully, although I've already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, I still don't have many means at my disposal."

After entering the Tianxing Domain, Li Changmeng thought of his own shortcomings, that is, he didn't have many spells to rely on.

There were the Soul-Driving Spell, the Five Spirits Injury-Healing Spell, the Brewing Method of the Immortal Ganoderma Longevity Brew, and the supernatural powers of the Spirit-Connecting Jade Hand and the Hundred Eyes.

It wasn't his fault. There were actually a few spells in the cultivation method, but at that time, he was in a hurry to break through to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining and return to the mountain, so he didn't have time to practice them.

As a result, until now, except for the significant improvement in his realm, the means he could use were still the same as before.

"Leaving other things aside, I must learn this Three Lives Body Protection Spell."

In the Qi Refining stage, most of the offensive spells were not very effective. They might be powerful among ordinary people, but they might not be enough when facing other cultivators.

The eighteen tentacles were Li Changmeng's means of attack, so it was enough for him to master a defensive spell.

"This Three Lives Body Protection Spell is really strange. It actually requires taking three living souls to practice. When used, it can stimulate the power in the living souls, bless oneself, and also block some spell attacks.

In fact, it's not just this spell that's strange. The Immortal Ganoderma Longevity Brew, as well as the Golden Water Corpse Refining Spell and the Soul-Summoning Spell that he hasn't practiced, and so on.

No wonder it's a side path. Even the spells seem so unorthodox.

Look at the cultivation method given to him by Taoist Baiyun. The spells in the Qi Refining stage include the Cloud-Driving Incantation, the Illusory Mist Spell, and the Cloud Inhalation and Spirit Transformation...

Just by looking at the names, they seem much more righteous than his sinister spells.

However, as long as the spell is useful, who cares if it's righteous or not? In the eyes of righteous cultivators, a side path cultivator like me is actually no different from those demonic cultivators.

With a self-deprecating laugh, Li Changmeng memorized the incantation of the Three Lives Body Protection Spell, and then found three beasts, a tiger, a leopard, and a wild boar, in the mountains. He extracted their living souls and practiced them into his own spell.

"Three Lives Body Protection!"

The souls of the tiger, leopard, and wild boar appeared around Li Changmeng, and at the same time, a force was transmitted through the souls.

"My strength and speed have both increased, and even my skin has become as hard as that of a wild boar. It's really a good spell."

After testing the effect of the spell, Li Changmeng was quite satisfied with its effect. The last bit of his concerns disappeared. He activated the spell from time to time, hoping to leave this uninhabited mountain faster.

"I've finally walked out of this mountain!"

At the foot of the mountain, Li Changmeng let out a long whistle. In seven days, he didn't know how many distances he had crossed, and he finally walked out of the mountain.

He even almost thought that this side was actually a desolate place in the Tianxing Domain.

Fortunately, as soon as he came out of the mountain, he got a pleasant surprise.

"Whose child is shouting here? Aren't you afraid of being carried away by the tigers and leopards in the mountains?"

A man dressed in common clothes and carrying firewood walked quickly and arrived in front of Li Changmeng in no time.

"I'm not afraid of tigers and leopards. But you, you seem to have great strength."

At first, the sound startled him. When the person arrived in front of him, Li Changmeng activated his Hundred Eyes supernatural power.

[Villager of Baishi Village] [Innate Great Strength] [Kind-hearted Person]

These three pieces of information revealed that the other party was just an ordinary person with a bit more strength, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Not afraid of tigers and leopards? Are you a cultivator, sir?!"

Xiong Moshan first looked disbelieving, and then his face changed. He hurriedly saluted.

"Eh? You, a villager in the mountains, also know about cultivators?"

"You're joking, sir. I didn't recognize your might before. Please don't take it to heart."

Li Changmeng didn't expect that any random villager in the Tianxing Domain knew about cultivators, and it seemed to be common sense, which was completely different from the Xuanfeng Kingdom.

Could it be that cultivators often appeared in front of these villagers?

He put aside the questions in his heart for the time being. Li Changmeng just waved his hand generously and said it didn't matter, and then asked, "I'm a cultivator from outside the Tianxing Domain. I've just arrived in the Tianxing Domain and I'm unfamiliar with the place. I wonder if you, brother, could tell me something about it?"

"I don't deserve to be called brother. Sir, you came from the other side of this Cangmang Mountain. I'm just an ordinary villager. How could I know about the matters among cultivators?

But I do know that every ten years, an Immortal Sect will come to recruit disciples. The direction of that Immortal Sect is from here, going straight in that direction, and it's about a thousand li away."

Immortal Sect! Could it be some powerful sect force?

Li Changmeng didn't expect that there was an Immortal Sect located a thousand li away. As a Qi Refining cultivator, he'd better not get involved there.

"Thank you. I have a jar of Longevity Spiritual Wine here as a token of my gratitude."

Li Changmeng took out a jar of the Immortal Ganoderma Longevity Brew. This thing was more than enough as a token of gratitude.

"Longevity Spiritual Wine! Such a precious thing can..."

Before Xiong Moshan could finish speaking, Li Changmeng disappeared in front of his eyes and had already run far away in the blink of an eye.

"Well, I'll give this spiritual wine to my son when I get back. Maybe it can cure his illness. It seems that the cultivator sir has gone in the wrong direction. Well, I can't call him back now."

Carefully putting away the spiritual wine, Xiong Moshan shouldered the firewood and hurried back to the village.

As for Li Changmeng, after getting the direction, he immediately rushed in the other direction without stopping.

He wasn't going to the Immortal Sect.

His master was only at the Half Step into the Golden Core Formation Realm, and the imposing pressure he emitted made it difficult for him to even move.

The Immortal Sect dared to use the word "immortal" in its name. In the sect, there might even be Nascent Soul cultivators or those above the Nascent Soul stage.

If he accidentally offended them, there would be no place to reason.

He just came to look for a spiritual object for Foundation Establishment. Going to a place where Qi Refining cultivators stayed was enough.

Li Changmeng wasn't in a hurry either. He had already arrived in the Tianxing Domain. As a newcomer, it was estimated that it would be a bit difficult to find the gathering place of cultivators, so there was no need to rush.

In the cultivation world, there were generally two types of forces that were the most common.

One was the sect, and the other was the family.

In addition to these two, there was another kind of force that wasn't really a force, and that was the freelance cultivators.

Freelance cultivators were also cultivators who needed various spiritual objects, materials, cultivation methods, and magic treasures.

Unlike families and sects, which had powerful backgrounds to rely on, freelance cultivators could only rely on themselves. In order to obtain what they needed, freelance cultivators often spontaneously established marketplaces.

Li Changmeng's goal was to find a low-level marketplace and see if he could find a way to get the spiritual object he needed.
