After a tense and focused absorption, Mo Wenjie and others finally completely incorporated the precious spiritual liquid into their bodies. As time went on, the powerful energy contained within the spiritual liquid began to gradually release within their bodies, rapidly integrating into every meridian and every cell.
The first to feel the changes were Huang Ling'er, Jiang Yuruo, and Xiao Yawen. They could see a faint glow emanating from their bodies, and their qi levels rose steadily. Not long after, they successfully broke through the bottleneck of their original cultivation levels and advanced three small realms in a row! At this moment, they possessed significantly greater strength and exuded an aura of confidence and composure.
At the same time, Tuo Baying, Qin Xiaodie, Ding Yan, and Cao Chunling were not willing to be outdone. Although their improvement was slightly less than that of the others, it was still remarkable—they each advanced by a full two small realms! This achievement was undoubtedly a great gain for them as well, propelling them to take a firm step forward on the path of cultivation!
As the crowd immersed themselves in the joy of their cultivation improvements, the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly became agitated. Thunderclouds began to gather in the sky, as if the rapid increase in their cultivation levels had attracted the attention of Heaven and Earth's laws. Mo Wenjie's heart skipped a beat, realizing that a thunder strike was imminent. For cultivators, encountering a thunder strike after a significant improvement in cultivation level was normal, but since everyone had simultaneously broken through, the scale of the thunder strike was likely to be significant.
Huang Ling'er was the first to calm down, her gaze resolute as she said, "Everyone, there's no need to panic. Since we've all broken through together, we'll face this lightning strike together as well." The others nodded in agreement. When the first bolt of lightning struck, everyone rallied together to erect a spiritual energy shield. However, the strikes grew progressively fiercer and soon some struggled to hold on. At that moment, Mo Wenjie bellowed loudly, summoning a mystical artifact. The artifact instantly expanded to envelop everyone, successfully deflecting most of the lightning strike power.
Finally, above the boundless sky, a series of thick lightning bolts, as massive as dragons, roared and raged furiously. They were like ancient monsters with bared fangs and claws, pouncing down upon the crowd below. Each lightning bolt was imbued with the power to destroy heaven and earth, as if it were to tear everything in this world into shreds.
However, facing such terrifying scenes, the crowd showed no signs of retreating. They gritted their teeth tightly and their eyes shone with determined light. Relying on their unwavering will and overwhelming strength, they engaged in a thrilling death match with the raining lightning bolts.
Some summoned various artifacts and spells with all their might to shield themselves from the lightning attacks. Others relied on their profound internal strength and intricate martial arts techniques, weaving agilely through the electrical storms, cleverly dodging the deadly strikes one after another.
As time went on, the lightning's assault grew more fierce, yet the group never wavered in their fearlessness and tenacity. Their bodies were already riddled with scars, and their robes were stained with blood, but the belief in their hearts had never faltered for a moment.
Just as the crowd seemed to be near exhaustion, suddenly, the lightning in the sky seemed to sense their indomitable will, gradually weakening. In the end, after countless strikes, the lightning gradually dissipated, and the crowd finally successfully passed through this terrifying thunder strike!
Standing in place, Mo Wenjie's gaze swept eagerly over the crowd. As he saw Huang Ling'er and her companions beside her all safe and sound, the tightened strings of his heart instantly relaxed. His previously slightly tense face seemed to be caressed by a spring breeze, breaking out into a radiant smile as bright as the sun.
In this mysterious and unknown perilous realm of the Xuan Tian, they had endured countless hardships and fought fiercely against various powerful enemies. However, in this moment, as he gazed upon the group before him unscathed, Mo Wenjie felt an indescribable sense of relief and joy surge within his heart.
Here, they no longer needed to be constantly on guard against potential threats around them, and could slightly relax their nerves, enjoying the hard-won peace and safety. Mo Wenjie knew that their journey ahead might not be smooth sailing, but as long as they worked together and supported each other, they would certainly be able to overcome any difficulties and reach their final destination.
Mo Wenjie led Huang Ling'er, Jiang Yuruo, Xiao Yawen, Ding Yan, Tuo Baying, Qin Xiaodie, and Cao Chunling to continue exploring forward.
Mo Wenjie was walking confidently forward, but at a certain moment, as if under a spell, he suddenly halted in his tracks. His eyes fixated on the distance ahead, not blinking for a moment, as though something incredibly captivating was drawing his gaze.
Mo Wenjie slightly opened his mouth, his lips moved, and he muttered to himself, "Millennium Spiritual Rhinoceros..." Although the voice was small, it was filled with shock and disbelief.
The spiritual rhinoceros is a type of special rhinoceros. Its appearance is similar to that of an ordinary rhinoceros, but its most unique feature is the center of its horns, which has a prominent white streak. This white streak resembles a bolt of lightning, extending directly from the horn tip to the deepest part of the rhinoceros's brain. It is precisely because of this feature that the spiritual rhinoceros possesses exceptional sensing abilities, capable of perceiving subtle changes in its surroundings.
Over time, people gradually used the phrase "a single understanding between hearts" to describe the wonderful emotional connection between men and women where they can understand each other without words, as if there is an invisible force that tightly binds them. When two people truly love each other and their hearts are attuned, it seems as if there is an unspoken bond that connects them, so that even a glance or a subtle gesture can immediately make the other person understand what they are thinking. This sense of heart-to-heart agreement is truly something yearned for.
Mo Wenjie widened his eyes, staring intently at the millennium rhinoceros that was emitting a mysterious glow in front of him. The excitement in his heart surged like a tide. His breath became rapid, and his hands trembled slightly, as if he couldn't believe that what he was seeing was actually real.
"Is this… the legendary rhino horn of a thousand-year-old spirit?" Mo Wenjie, whose heart was filled with excitement and disbelief, was struggling to grasp the reality of what lay before him.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath, moving closer to the millennium rhinoceros. He knew that the rhino horn was not only a rare treasure but also a crucial material for refining advanced elixirs. Just as he was about to touch the horn, the rhinoceros suddenly opened its eyes, and they sparkled with an aura of intelligence.
Mo Wenjie was startled, but the rhinoceros did not attack him. At this moment, Mo Wenjie noticed that the rhinoceros' hooves were trapped by an ancient array. He felt a flicker of insight and decided to first free the array. Mo Wenjie put all his skills into breaking the array pattern. As the last glyph was dispelled, the rhinoceros stood up, shuddered slightly, and then slowly calmed down.
It walked up to Mo Wenjie, lowered its head, as if expressing gratitude. Mo Wenjie was surprised by this unexpected gesture, hesitated for a moment, and gently caressed the rhino horn. Suddenly, the rhino horn glowed brightly, and a stream of information poured into Mo Wenjie's mind. Within it lay the secret location of a hidden treasure and an arcane cultivation technique.
Mo Wenjie's face was filled with excitement, as if he had won a lottery worth five million yuan! His body shook slightly in excitement, his hands tightly clenched into fists, and then he quickly bowed three times towards the rhinoceros, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.
The rhinoceros, raising its head, let out a clear and elongated bellowing sound. This sound was like celestial music, resounding through the heavens and lingering in the air like smoke, captivating the listener. As this prolonged roar slowly faded away into the distance, the nimble figure of the rhinoceros vanished into thin air as swiftly as lightning.
Mo Wenjie slowly turned around, his gaze sweeping over everyone present. His eyes shimmered with excitement and joy, like the brightest star in the night sky. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited emotions, and then couldn't wait to say, "Everyone, what just happened is simply unbelievable! Here he goes, detailing the incredible encounter with the rhinoceros and the assistance it provided.
The group listened silently to Mo Wenjie's account, their faces gradually showing expressions of anticipation and longing. They understood that with the mysterious and powerful assistance of the rhinoceros, they would undoubtedly face new opportunities and challenges ahead. Perhaps the path before them was filled with difficulties and dangers, but as long as they worked together, pressed forward bravely, they would surely overcome all obstacles to achieve unexpected success and glory!
Only Huang Ling and Jiang Yuchi were seen gently massaging each other's shoulders with smiling faces, their eyes revealing admiration for Mo Wenjie. The two of them nodded in unison without speaking, expressing their admiration with a single word: "Mo Wenjie, you truly have great fortune! Look at all the coincidental opportunities you've encountered on your journey."
Next, Huang Ling'er playfully said, "We who have been following you have benefited from your good fortune. I reckon our luck must be quite good too!" Jiang Yuruo listened and chuckled with her hand over her mouth, agreeing enthusiastically: "Indeed! In the future, we must definitely hold onto your legs tightly! Haha!" After that, the three of them exchanged smiles and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious and harmonious.
Just then, the ground suddenly began to shake violently. The group's faces changed color, and Mo Wenjie vigilantly looked around, saying in a low voice, "Be careful everyone; it seems there's another new situation." As soon as he finished speaking, a huge vortex appeared ahead, continuously absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy. After a moment of thought, Mo Wenjie said, "There might be something hidden behind this vortex. I'll go first to have a look; you wait here." But the group unanimously objected, saying they wanted to enter and retreat together. Reluctantly, Mo Wenjie had to lead everyone into the vortex.
Inside the vortex, an extraordinary space appeared, with crystals floating everywhere, emitting shimmering light. As everyone was curious and examining their surroundings, a group of ghostly creatures suddenly appeared and attacked them. The group immediately used their magic to defend themselves, and Mo Wenjie noticed that these ghosts were afraid of strong light. Therefore, he instructed everyone to concentrate their spiritual energy to create a strong light area. As the ghostly creatures began to dissipate under the strong light, they retreated.
After this experience, the group bonded even more. Mo Wenjie smiled, "It seems that no matter how many dangers we encounter, as long as we are together, we can overcome them." Everyone nodded in agreement, and then continued to explore this mysterious space, hoping to find more clues that would be beneficial for their cultivation or help them leave this place.
