The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth, a six-year-old child followed behind an old man as they slowly advanced through a vast forest.
"Old Ling, is the spiritual energy in that place really abundant?”The little boy behind the old man suddenly asked.
"Yes, little fellow. The spiritual energy there is the densest in the entire Forest of Spiritual Beasts. Many middle-rank Spiritual Beasts like to rest there. Moreover, there is a relatively special fruit growing there. This fruit is formed by absorbing the essence of the spiritual energy of the world all year round. As long as you eat one, your spiritual energy will increase exponentially. Moreover, after eating the fruit, it will also be very helpful in absorbing the spiritual energy of the world in the future. However, these fruits can only be encountered by luck. Moreover, some high rank middle rank spirit beasts would guard the fruit all year round. As soon as the fruit ripened, they would fight to snatch it, which caused many high rank middle rank spirit beasts to fight. If they wanted to get the fruit, they had to be stronger.”The old man slowly explained.
These two people were the grey-robed old man and Ling Aoran in the Forest of Spirit Beasts. The old man had told Ling Aoran to call him Elder Ling and not call him grandpa anymore. He said that it would seem very distant.
After Elder Ling's explanation last night, Ling Aoran had a general understanding of the situation in the Forest of Spirit Beasts. The strength of the spirit beasts here was divided into low-level and middle-level, and each level was divided into three levels. Their level was the same as that of human spirit cultivators. For example, low-level and high-level spirit beasts had the strength of a peak spirit gatherer! As for the mid-rank high-rank spirit beasts, they were existences that belonged to the Seethrough realm of human cultivators! When a spirit beast's level advanced to the middle level, they would grow wings on their backs and could soar and fight freely in the sky. As for high-level spirit beasts, they were nowhere to be found here because they resided in the Inner Continent.
In order to help Ling Aoran better reconstruct his meridians, Old Ling planned to choose the Heaven Basin, which was the place with the most abundant Heaven Earth Spirit Qi in the Forest of Spirit Beasts. It could also be called the Spirit Beast Paradise. It was indeed a paradise for spirit beasts. The concentration of spiritual energy was comparable to the array formations of some sects. The most common array formation was the spirit gathering array. This spirit gathering array was an array formation set up by some sects in places with dense spiritual energy. It was used to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Cultivating in the array formation was several times faster than in ordinary places. There were also some ancient sects or relatively powerful sects. Almost all of them had some relatively ancient array formations, and these array formations were many times better than this spirit gathering array. Compared to this spirit gathering array, it was simply insignificant.
Back to the main topic, almost all the mid-rank spirit beasts in the entire Forest of Spirit Beasts were gathered in Heaven Basin. It was a relatively dangerous place, and Old Ling brought Ling Aoran to this Spirit Beast Paradise to reconstruct his meridians.
As for the little girl, Ling Wan 'er, she was sitting on the wooden bench sulking. She was even muttering to herself,""Bad grandpa! Smelly Grandpa! If you don't bring me along, I'll ignore you when you come back! Humph!"
As he followed Old Ling through the dense rainforest, he would occasionally hear the roars of some spirit beasts. The sound was truly astonishing! Ling Aoran felt a little guilty and asked,"Hey! Old Ling, there are so many mid-grade spirit beasts there, it's alright, right?”Ling Aoran didn't know how strong Elder Ling's strength was. He only knew that those middle-rank high-rank spirit beasts had the strength of the Seethrough state, and they were even a group of Seethrough state powerhouses! Although he didn't know how strong a spirit cultivator at the Seethrough stage was, that realm was there for all to see. How could he be weak? Moreover, even a Heaven Realm expert could easily destroy a Watershed Town, let alone a Seethrough Stage expert who was two levels higher.
Seeing Ling Aoran's worried expression, Elder Ling couldn't help but tease,""What, little fellow, are you afraid? Alright then, let's go back now. Anyway, we'll still be building our meridians no matter where we go. Since you're afraid, let's go back.”After saying that, Old Ling turned around and pretended to be ready to return.
Ling Aoran panicked and quickly explained,"Who…who's afraid! I…I was just asking casually, right! I was just asking…" After saying that, Ling Ao turned his head to the side with a red face and pretended to be indifferent.
"Hehe, don't worry, little fellow. As long as I'm here, those beasts won't be able to hurt you.”Seeing that Ling Aoran was embarrassed, Elder Ling smiled. He didn't care about those Middle Rank High Rank Spiritual Beasts at all.
Ling Aoran's eyes lit up when he heard that. He asked curiously,""Old Ling, how strong are you? What realm are you at now?”He was very curious about Old Ling's strength. From how familiar Old Ling was with this place, he should have lived here all year round. To be able to easily associate with those spirit beasts, his strength should be extremely powerful. Old Ling estimated that it was at least the strength of the peak of the high level primary stage. Otherwise, it was impossible to not put so many spirit beasts of the Seethrough stage in his eyes.
Old Ling only smiled and did not answer Ling Aoran's question. Seeing that Elder Ling was unwilling to answer, Ling Aoran could only give up.
Following Old Ling through the forest, they did not encounter any spirit beasts on the way. After about four hours, Old Ling stopped and turned around to say to Ling Aoran,"We're here. After passing through the grass, we'll reach Paradise Basin. Are you ready? Don't be frightened by the scene inside later!”Elder Ling's tone was relaxed. Seeing that Ling Aoran was nervous, he couldn't help but tease her.
Hearing Elder Ling's words, Ling Aoran, who was originally stiff due to nervousness, instantly relaxed a lot. He nodded at Elder Ling, then used his hand to push aside the grass in front of him and walked in.
What greeted Ling Aoran's eyes was a green lake. The lake water was so clear that one could see the bottom. At a glance, he could see many fish playing in the water. The waves rippled, and from time to time, some strange fish poked their heads out of the lake to breathe. Then, as if they were shocked by something, they hurriedly dived back into the water.
The lake was surrounded by lush green grass, and many spirit beasts of different appearances were resting there. Not far from the lake, there was a small hill. There were about ten Spiritual Beasts squatting there. No other Spiritual Beasts dared to approach them. From the aura emitted by those Spiritual Beasts, it could be seen that they were Middle Rank High Rank Spiritual Beasts.
Roar! Roar!
When the spirit beasts who were resting saw that a human had stepped into their territory, they immediately let out a high-pitched roar to express the anger in their hearts.
The mighty roar was enough to be described as the cries of a hundred beasts! Ling Aoran was shocked by the sudden roar. He looked at the spirit beasts in front of him in horror. After the Spirit Beasts roared, they opened their bloodshot eyes wide. Some of them spat out snakes and looked at Ling Aoran and Old Ling. As for the Spirit Beasts resting on the small hill, they did not even look at them. They were like kings, leaving everything to their subordinates.
"Hmph! A bunch of beasts dare to be impudent in front of this old man!!! All of you, calm down!"
Seeing the spirit beasts so arrogantly flaunting their might in front of him, Old Ling snorted coldly. A huge aura burst out, directly pressing down on the group of roaring spirit beasts.
Under the pressure of Old Ling's aura, the group of arrogant Spiritual Beasts immediately became like sick cats, lying on the ground and shivering. Even the Middle Rank High Rank Spiritual Beasts on the hill were no exception. They looked at Old Ling in fear, their eyes full of pleading.
Seeing that they had become obedient, Old Ling snorted in disdain. He retracted his aura and turned to Ling Aoran, who was in a daze, and said,"Alright, stop daydreaming. Go over there. It's just right for you to reconstruct your meridians.”Old Ling pointed at an empty space not far away and walked over.
Ling Aoran subconsciously nodded and followed behind Elder Ling. At this moment, his heart was filled with horror! That scene just now was probably something he would never forget for the rest of his life! Ling Aoran did not expect that a person could suppress the group of ferocious spirit beasts by just releasing his aura. How powerful must he be! This wasn't something that a beginner high-level cultivator could do. Could it be that Old Ling was a mid-level high-level cultivator? Even advanced! Tsk tsk, a Primordial Chaos expert! It was a soul-shaking experience…
Stopping in his tracks, Old Ling took out a large medicinal vat and placed it on the ground. Seeing something appear out of thin air, Ling Aoran's eyes lit up and he quickly asked,""Old Ling, where did you get this thing? I didn't see you bring this big thing.”Oh my god, creating something out of thin air? This was too ridiculous!
Seeing Ling Aoran's reaction, Elder Ling smiled and waved his right hand. He pointed at the ring on his middle finger and said,""Here, this is it. This is a storage ring that can store dead things. There are big and small spatial rings. The big ones have tens of thousands of cubic meters of space, and the small ones only have one cubic meter. When you become a spirit gatherer, I'll help you get one.”
"Really? That's great. I'll definitely reach the realm of a spirit gatherer as soon as possible!”Ling Aoran's eyes lit up as he said excitedly.
Seeing this, Old Ling smiled and thought," He was already so happy? If you knew that the old master left you with a stone that could hold living things and had a terrifyingly large space, I wonder how happy you would be.
Shaking his head, Old Ling took out many herbs and plants from his storage ring. Ling Aoran was dazzled by the sight. Even though he had read many books about precious herbs when he was in the Ling Family, he did not recognize any of the things that Old Ling took out. It didn't take long before the entire water vat was filled to the brim with medicinal herbs. Elder Ling turned to Ling Aoran and said,"
"Now, I will extract the liquid from these medicinal herbs. After you are done, take off your clothes and enter the water tank, understand? At the beginning, you won't feel anything, but as time goes by, your meridians will slowly be shaped, and it will become more and more painful. However, you have to endure the pain and don't come out of the water tank. You can only come out when the liquid in the water jar turns into clear water. Repeat this process three times and your meridians will be successfully molded. Alright, are you ready?" Elder Ling instructed Ling Aoran with a serious expression.
Ling Aoran nodded firmly and said seriously,""Old Ling, I'm ready, let's begin!”
