I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

"Who are you?"

Han Yi's tone was slightly cold, without any expression.

The female cultivator put away her unwillingness and lowered her head: "Junior Mu Yao is a cultivator of the Mu family in Qinghe."

Han Yi frowned, Qinghe Mu family, this statement should be the statement of the Immortal Cultivation Family in Shu. He had gone to Qinghefang before looking for the Fu family.

"Let me ask you, do you know what those shadow monsters were?"

Mu Yao was stunned for a moment, raised her head, glanced at Han Yi with a puzzled expression and said, "Senior, don't you know?"

"Hmph, if I knew, why would I need to ask you?" Han Yi snorted, his tone even colder, and there was a hint of the middle stage of foundation building, which made Mu Yao's face change greatly.

"Senior, forgive me."

"Those shadow monsters just now are virtual beasts, transformed from spiritual beings swallowed by the virtual realm."

"Void beast, virtual realm?" Han Yi was confused in his heart.

Seeing Han Yi's doubts, Mu Yao explained quickly and concisely, and Han Yi suddenly understood.

The Mirage World is where Han Yi is now. This is a world heading towards death, and the place where it falls is the Void Realm.

The virtual realm is not just a world, but a strange and bizarre realm.

Time and space, in the virtual realm, are constantly changing and changing in an extremely chaotic form.

It is precisely because of the proximity to the virtual realm that the Mirage Realm was affected, and the time in the Mirage Realm was inconsistent with the real world. In the Mirage Realm, several years, even more than ten years, had passed, and only three breaths had passed in the Yuheng Realm.

This is also the origin of the term ‘illusion’.

The black mist space is not called the black mist space, but is called the virtual domain invasion area.

This kind of invasion area appears randomly in the mirage world. In fact, this is a partial virtualization of the mirage world. In the invasion area, there will be virtual beasts wandering around. As long as they are not spiritual objects, the virtual beasts cannot touch the illusion. It looks like something illusory, which is also one of the reasons why the name of the illusion comes from.

but.

If you attack the virtual beast, it is equivalent to a brief intersection between two worlds.

Then, all the virtual beasts in the attack area will be alerted, and the attacker will also be exposed to the eyes of the virtual beast. If the attacker is killed, his body, soul, spells, magic weapons, and spiritual objects in the storage bag will all fall into the virtual world. Domain, after some wonderful changes, became a new virtual beast.

If the virtual beast is killed, the spiritual object that transformed into the virtual beast will be dropped.

but.

No matter what, as long as the virtual domain invasion zone appears, this place will begin to intersect with the virtual domain. Even if the virtual domain invasion zone temporarily dissipates, it will quickly attract more and more powerful virtual beasts, and re-form even larger ones. range of invasion areas.

In other words, this place is no longer safe.

Han Yi raised his eyebrows. He always felt that the female cultivator in front of him was hiding the key and that her thoughts were not pure.

However, he is not an evil cultivator and will not directly kill people or use soul-searching techniques.

Seeing Han Yi thinking deeply, Mu Yao's eyes moved slightly and then prompted.

"Senior, in fact, in the mirage world, there are two ways to obtain spiritual objects. One is to kill virtual beasts, and the other is to explore the world and obtain spiritual objects from some hidden places."

"The first type is to kill virtual beasts. It is too dangerous. Generally, the strength of virtual beasts is equivalent to that of the monks in the place where they appear. However, there are many virtual beasts, dozens, hundreds, or even tens of thousands of virtual beasts besieging them. It will be difficult for a monk to survive."

"The second type is much safer. The predecessor of the Mirage Immortal World was also a world of cultivating immortals. There were major cultivating sects and aristocratic families. If you can enter the secret places of the major sects or aristocratic families, the spiritual stones, magic weapons, and magic weapons, It is possible to obtain all kinds of magical skills that defy the heavens.

"This junior is a side sect of the Mu family. Not long ago, by chance, I got a book of notes. The owner of the notes is a monk who entered the Mirage Land a hundred years ago. That monk discovered a large secret place. And there was no danger after checking, but before he could take away many spiritual objects, he was teleported away, regretting his life."

"That volume of notes has been burned by the junior, but the contents and the map are all in the junior's head. The junior can take the senior there."

Mu Yao lowered his head, and a cold light flashed past in his unseen eyes.

What puzzled her was.

Han Yi didn't respond for a long time.

"senior?"

She quietly raised her head, but saw that there was no one in front of her. The foundation-building expert who was standing just now seemed like a dream, which made her stunned for a while.

"I……"

…

the other side.

After Han Yi left the courtyard where he temporarily settled, he walked along the street.

Although he knew that Mu Yao had hidden some key, he did not want to pursue it. The presence of virtual beasts in that courtyard also meant that it was unsafe, so he simply left and found another place to retreat.

Instead of killing void beasts, it is better to practice.

As for what Mu Yao said.

There may be many spiritual beings in this world, but the dangers among them are certainly not weak.

Just like when he was in Ten Thousand Stars Sea, Han Yi didn't want to get too involved. He was self-aware. With his own strength, he could bully the foundation-building monks, but if he met the golden elixir monks, he would have no choice but to escape.

If he runs around and encounters the Jindan Hall Master of the Wenxiang Sect who was chasing him before, wouldn't it be like a wolf entering a tiger's mouth?

And if he could practice to the late stage of foundation building, Han Yi was confident that he would be able to escape with his life if he faced that monk again.

That's right.

Even if he was promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, he didn't have the confidence to be able to defeat the Golden Core.

Strictly speaking, foundation building is the first level of immortality. It is when the foundation is laid that it is called foundation building.

As for the golden elixir monk, the golden elixir condensed from the spiritual sea is already a golden elixir. My destiny is up to me. This is a key step to break away from the "human" and turn to the "immortal".

Therefore, foundation-building monks can only fly with weapons, while golden elixir monks can rely on the spiritual sea golden elixir to escape gravity and fly into the sky.

It is much more difficult to build a foundation to advance to the golden elixir than to practice qi to advance to the golden elixir.

Han Yi naturally did not have the confidence to be able to kill the Golden Pill with Foundation Establishment. Unless he reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, or half-stepped the Golden Pill, there would be even a slight possibility.

Thoughts flickered, Han Yi's body had stopped.

Not far in front of him, a huge black curtain suddenly appeared. The black curtain was the black fog space that Han Yi had experienced not long ago, which was the virtual domain invasion area.

Han Yi paused, turned around and left without hesitation. After leaving the invasion area far away, he slowed down again, hoping to find a safe area to practice again.

but.

Suddenly, he paused and frowned. He raised his right hand and saw a black mark on the back of his right hand.

This mark is only the size of a fingernail, and looks like an irregular snowflake. However, this snowflake is black, and the color is exactly the same as the color of the virtual beast.

"When." Han Yi was shocked.

He was very sure that before this, there was absolutely no such thing on the back of his palm, at least before entering the mirage world, because before that, he met Li Yuanyi, experienced the arrival of strange beings, and returned to Shu. After the capital, he checked his body just in case. At that time, there was no such mark on the back of his palm.

It is absolutely impossible to say that he appeared while being chased by the Jindan monks. He had been running away, and the other party had no chance to cast spells on him.

The only possibility is that it appeared after entering the mirage world, especially after killing those shadow monsters, the virtual beasts, in the invasion area just now.

Han Yi's soul carefully explored the black mark on his right hand, only to find that the mark did not exist. In other words, he did not exist in his spiritual perception and could only be seen with the naked eye.

After being stunned for a moment, Han Yi's face became more solemn. He covered his left hand with his right hand, and his mana surged out, wanting to use his mana to explore what this mark was.

At the moment when mana poured into the mark.

The surrounding environment suddenly changed in light and shadow, and Han Yi felt that he was falling, falling, and falling. The moment of falling seemed to be stretched, but in his consciousness, it seemed like it was only a moment.

This sense of time dislocation made him feel uncomfortable even though he was already in the middle stage of foundation building.

brush!

The feeling of falling disappears and the light and shadow are fixed.

Han Yi was startled.

At this moment, I was in a strange place. No, I couldn't say it was strange. I could only say that it was very different from before.

The scene within a hundred meters was exactly the same as before the fall, but the scene a hundred meters away and within a hundred meters seemed to have been forced together, with a sense of fracture.

It was as if he was in the mirage world just now, and the things within a hundred meters of him as the center fell directly into another world and squeezed into a certain place in this world.

A hundred meters away is an abandoned palace. The palace is not small, similar to the Qinglong Palace on Qinglong Peak in Xuandan Sect.

Han Yi looked around vigilantly and found that in addition to the palace a hundred meters in front of him, there were also several palaces or attics occupying a large area on the left, right and behind, at a distance of several hundred meters to thousands of meters.

Judging from the surrounding palace lofts, this should be a certain sect, at least, it used to be a sect.

Han Yi looked at his arm and found that the black mark on his arm that looked like an irregular snowflake had expanded in a circle.

"Assuming that the black mark is the result of me killing the void beast."

"Moreover, in the area of ​​100 meters around me, as I fell into this world, the marks became larger."

"Based on what the female cultivator named Mu Yao said before, could it be that what I fell into now is the virtual realm?"

Thoughts were floating in Han Yi's mind. However, he didn't know much about the mirage and couldn't figure out the truth, so he had to give up. He held the Seven-Star Kunwu Sword in his hand and walked cautiously to the side.

The place he went to was not the palace that seemed to have a higher status, but to a relatively shorter tower on the side.

Han Yi walked for three minutes at a distance of several hundred meters. He was extremely careful with every step he took, for fear of triggering some formation or restriction.

However, what made him relieved was that when he walked to the door of the tower, he still saw nothing unusual.

Han Yi looked up and saw that half of the plaque on the lintel of the tower was crooked, with only two-thirds left. There were two words on the plaque, "Book Collection". He guessed that this should be a library or a library, a library tower or something like that. .

but.

There may be skills, clues, etc. in this kind of place. Han Yi felt happy and pushed the door open. Inside the tower, it was already in ruins. Let alone the magic. Where he saw, except for broken stones and broken tiles, there were even There is no bookshelf at all.

However, Han Yi found a corpse in the corner, or in other words, a skeleton. On the skull of the skeleton, a dagger was inserted directly between the eyebrows.

Han Yi frowned, turned around and left, but he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. With a flash of consciousness, he moved the skeleton away. Under the skeleton, there was a jade plate.

This is a photographic jade butterfly.

Han Yi thought for a while, input mana, and activated Jade Butterfly.

Buzz!

A figure appeared.

The environment where the figure is located is a bit crowded, and there seem to be bookshelves behind him. The location where Jade Butterfly records is not the best. The light is a bit blurry and occasionally shakes.

"My name is Du Rufeng. I am 59 years old. I am the deacon of the inner sect of Suzhen Sword Sect. I am at the ninth level of Qi training."

"The Suzhen Sword Sect is about to perish, because this world is about to fall into the virtual realm. The sect master and many supreme elders, direct disciples, elders, etc. are preparing to go to Tianshi Sect and leave this world that is about to fall."

"However, it's hard to say whether we can escape."

Rustling, the light and shadow blurred for a while. After a brief pause, it started to shake again, facing a face that looked slightly haggard.

"They're all gone, so fast."

"Hey, but I don't want to leave."

"I was born in Suzhen Sword Sect and have been in Suzhen Sword Sect for decades. Even if my qualifications are too weak, the ninth level of Qi training is my end. However, I have no regrets. Even if I die, I will die here. .”

"Moreover, in order not to fall to the ninth level of the virtual realm, I will commit suicide in an hour. Only the soul that dies naturally will not be pulled down by the virtual realm."

"To be honest, I don't know why I kept this photo-taking jade butterfly. Maybe it's because I don't want to."

"But, who knows, this jade butterfly will not be discovered anyway, just treat it as the last trace of me left in this world."

With a flick of the brush, the light and shadow dissipated.

Click.

The jade butterfly left behind showed a crack and then shattered on the spot. This piece of jade butterfly had been completely scrapped under the influence of the years.

Han Yi frowned.

The photo taken just now didn't contain much useful information, but one thing was captured by Han Yi.

"Nine levels of virtual realm?"

"So, this virtual realm actually has nine levels, but is the area I fell to now the first level or a deeper level of virtual realm?"

Han Yi was worried in his heart. This nine-level virtual realm sounded extremely dangerous.

In addition, Han Yi thought of another more important issue.

If you fall into a deeper virtual realm and lose yourself in the virtual realm, you will not be able to return to the Yuheng Realm.

Previously in the Xuanxian Pill Shop, Senior Brother Zhou Su said that 90% of the monks could not go back after entering the Mirage Immortal Illusion. Could it be that 90% of the monks were unable to go back mainly because they fell deeper into the virtual realm?

Even if he falls into the first level of the virtual realm, he will not be able to return to the Yuheng Realm just like he is now?

Thinking of this, Han Yi felt a chill in his heart. If this was really the case, it would be troublesome.

If he guessed correctly, the black mark on the back of his hand must be the culprit of his fall.

Next, you must not use magic power to stimulate the mark.

Han Yi walked out of the tower and carefully checked several towers and palaces around him, but found nothing. All the spiritual objects had long since disappeared, and the rest were all mundane objects.

Han Yi hesitated a little, whether to continue to expand the search area, or to stay here for the time being.

After a while, he decided to stay for the time being.

However, just when he was about to find a loft and set up the Seven-Star Xuanyuan Formation, suddenly, a trace of red light came out of his chest.

Han Yi was stunned for a moment, and immediately took out the black token leading to the mysterious place with his left hand.

A red light appeared above the token, but it was not strong, as if it was detecting something.

Han Yi did not dare to pick it up with his right hand because he was afraid that the black mark on his right hand would irritate the token.

but.

Buzz.

The third time the token was taken out, the red light on the token suddenly became brighter, directly wrapping Han Yi, and of course, Han Yi's right hand was also included.

Han Yi was shocked, but he controlled it firmly and did not throw it away. This token could activate the fog of Mirage Mountain, which quite saved his life. At this moment, Han Yi chose to believe in this token.

When the red light flourished, the black mark on Han Yi's right hand was stimulated and suddenly expanded again.

As the black mark expanded, the environment around Han Yi began to flicker crazily, the light and shadow changed, and the feeling of falling reappeared.

The feeling of falling disappeared, and Han Yi's whole body sank suddenly, feeling a heavy pressure falling on his body.

He looked up and saw that he was now in front of a black cave.

The door of the cave was ajar, revealing the gap to outsiders. A chaotic and evil aura began to awaken from the cave.

Before Han Yi could make any move.

Buzz.

Before the red light dissipated, the black mark on the back of the hand expanded again, and the feeling of falling reappeared.

After falling crazily, Han Yi felt a sweet sensation in his throat and his chest was turbulent. However, he resisted the discomfort and nausea and looked forward.

This time, he appeared in front of a wooden house, and it was still raining.

The rain was black, dripping on him and making a sizzling sound. The robe on his body began to smoke and flash red.

The rain was so poisonous that even the robes were corroded.

But Han Yi had no time to pay attention to this. In front of him, the wooden house creaked, and a wrinkled, dry and old arm was placed on the side of the wooden door, and he slowly pushed it forward.

Han Yi's eyes fell on that arm, and his heartbeat was beating uncontrollably, as if he was being severely grabbed by a hand.

The next moment.

The feeling of falling reappears.

Before Han Yi could take a breath, another even weirder scene appeared.

An eye so huge that it took up all the sight was staring at Han Yi.

Han Yi's expression changed drastically.

This time the stay was shorter.

Brush it.

The feeling of falling reappears.

Each time is faster than the last, and each time must be fiercer.

Han Yi was extremely horrified.

He just learned that there may be nine levels in the virtual realm. This token is preparing to take him down all the way. Is it going to take him to the ninth level of the virtual realm?

Weird caves, withered arms, huge eyes, squirming sand, rolling seas of blood, and magical mountains of despair...

Repeatedly, Han Yi's body was completely immobile. Even with his extremely firm Taoist heart, his mind at this moment was just a hair away from collapse.

Starting from the second level of the virtual realm, each level down is a more terrifying environment.

The black mark on the back of Han Yi's hand has completely expanded to the entire back of his hand.

Buzz!

Sudden.

The feeling of falling completely disappeared. At this moment, Han Yi could not feel his body at all, as if his body did not exist. No, even his soul did not exist in the form of a soul.

However, he could feel that there was something in front of him, attracting him to go there.

This is a black bead.

When Han Yi had the concept of 'this is a black bead' in his mind.

Buzz.

A terrifying pulling feeling lifted him upwards. This pulling was too fast and too fierce, and his body and soul were shaken violently.

Seriously injured, definitely seriously injured.

Not just the body, but also the soul.

This is also a thought.

Time is short and seems to be very fast, not even a billionth of an instant.

When Han Yi could feel his breathing, he hadn't opened his eyes yet.

In an instant, he felt endless pain, both in his body and in his soul.

The moment the pain reached his soul, he completely fainted.
