before were only two or three inches long, ordinary hornets. However, the hornets in this sea of flowers could already be classified as demon hornets.What's even more terrifying is that the number of...Inside the main hall, a secret passage leading underground opened at some point. One after another, cultivators walked in, their hollow footsteps echoing from deep below.

Lacking time, Lu Ye walked to a corner of the secret chamber, took out a cushion and laid it down. He then sat cross-legged on it, calming his mind and focusing his spirit.

Xie Jin said at this point, one only needs to meditate normally. As one breathes in and out, the faint red mist will temper a cultivator's physique.

Lu Ye was a little worried. He hadn't lived a normal life since he started his cultivation journey.

After several attempts, it turned out that this kind of sitting meditation had no effect whatsoever. The faint reddish mist surrounding my body was not absorbed into me at all.

This fog is the root cause of tempering a cultivator's physique. Since it cannot be brought into the body, it naturally cannot have the effect of tempering.

He had anticipated this, Lu Ye began constructing a Gathering Spirit Rune within his own spiritual aperture...

The Jùlíng Línwén can transform into a tiny funnel, channeling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into Lüyè's spiritual acupoints. If we consider this pale red mist as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, then the Jùlíng Línwén should also be able to function.

Soon, a Gathering Spirit Rune formed. Lu Ye immediately felt a difference. Under the pull of the Gathering Spirit Rune, mist gathered and, passing through the funnel-shaped rune, surged into his spirit aperture.

It's different from the feeling during meditation. When the mist flowed into his acupoints, Lu Ye immediately felt a slight pain, not intense, like someone had lightly pricked him with a needle.

This reassured him, because Xie Jin said that this was normal. Tempering one's physique wasn't something pleasant to experience. Everyone here would feel pain.

This is also the reason why Tang Wu asked everyone to do what they could. The higher a cultivator's aptitude for cultivation, the greater the benefits they can receive here, and conversely, the stronger the pain they have to endure.

As the Gathering Spirit Rune continued to exert its influence, a faint ache persisted.

At this time, as the faint red mist continued to pour in, the pain became extremely obvious. It was no longer like a pin pricking oneself lightly; it felt like countless long needles had appeared inside the body, constantly moving and piercing through every limb and bone.

Lu Ye temporarily stopped constructing the spirit patterns, because he felt that if he continued like this, he wouldn't be able to hold on any longer.

The pain intensified, reaching a peak. Lu Ye suddenly felt a burning sensation throughout his entire body, as if he were on fire. His muscles bulged, and his forehead was covered in veins, giving him a ferocious look.

The intense pain made him sweat profusely, soaking his clothes.

But immediately after, the pain began to ease, though it didn't disappear completely, it was much better than before.

Lü Yè calmed his mind and rebuilt the Gathering Spirit Rune.

From thirty-one, thirty-two… until forty did he stop.

The pain in my body had vanished completely at some point, I didn't even notice. Now my stomach was growling loudly, a hunger unlike anything I'd ever felt before.

A strange noise echoed, and Lu Ye looked intently. At the center of the secret room, where the spring was located, something flat emerged from the gushing water.

He looked at it in surprise for a moment, thinking of getting up to take it. But after only taking a few steps, he realized something was wrong.

But Lu Ye now clearly had a feeling of being reborn.

He took a deep breath, slowly calming his nerves, then turned around and began to walk slowly through the room.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Only now did he realize that the faint red mist that had once permeated this place had vanished without a trace. The spring was still gushing water, but no more mist emerged from it.

The feeling of hunger became more and more intense, as if I hadn't eaten in many days.

It took eating tens of kilograms of jerky to finally feel full.

"Get out! Get out! You stink!" someone shouted, leading the way back down the road.o listen.Everyone immediately fell silent."There's no sound, you must have misheard.""No, you listen."Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!As soon as the words left his mo...
