osion erupted from the mystical aura storm swirling behind him. It shattered into over thirty fragments, each hurtling towards every descendant and disciple present within this secret realm at that ve...Above Gingercloud's head, at a height of about ten feet, a whirlpool ten zhang in size suddenly appeared out of nowhere!

In the vortex, there was a constant stream of spiritual energy emanating out.

Although Jiang Yun didn't absorb these spiritual qi, feeling them falling onto his body brought a wave of comfort to his mind.

Therefore, he could be certain that these spiritual energies were absolutely more pure than those found anywhere in the world of mountains and seas. They were even comparable to the spiritual energies of those souls within the Refining Heaven Furnace, with almost no impurities at all.

However, Jiang Yun dared not absorb these spiritual energies. After all, their appearance was simply too bizarre.

And he also turned his head abruptly, looking at Tang Yi and the others behind him. He found that the two of them were also staring at the vortex with surprise, but there was no vortex above their heads.

That is to say, only above one's own head appeared such a vortex.

"What is this"

Jiang Yun quietly asked Bai Ze, and although Bai Ze was reluctant to admit it, he could only remain silent because he really didn't know what this was.

"Senior Brother Jiang, what's this" At the same time, Tang Yi also asked in confusion.

Jiang Yun smiled wryly and shook his head, while Lu Yourong on the side had already opened her Tao Eye again. After staring at the vortex for a moment, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "This vortex is completely composed of spiritual energy!"

"No, it should be said that it is releasing a powerful suction force, drawing in all the spiritual energy within at least a thousand zhang radius..."

At least a thousand zhang, because Lu Yourong's eye of Tao could only see within a range of a thousand zhang!

And in fact, at this very moment, some cultivators who are more sensitive to feelings within this world, regardless of their location, all felt it – the spiritual energy contained within the air is diminishing!

Although the rate of this decrease is extremely slow, being in an unknown world where abnormal phenomena occur naturally raises their level of vigilance.

Of course, the vast majority of cultivators remain oblivious, still cautiously navigating this world. They seek prey while simultaneously becoming prey themselves.

Jiang Yun's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she looked up at the vortex above her head.

Especially, he could feel the pure spiritual energy overflowing from it, which made a longing expression appear involuntarily on his face.

Now he is at the Sixth Layer of Meridian Circulation, and the remaining three blessed lands, especially the Sea of Boundaries Blessed Land, are the most difficult to condense. He originally hoped that he could try his luck within the Mirage Tower and see if he could obtain enough spiritual energy.

But now, there is actually spiritual energy appearing!

After a brief moment of hesitation, Jiang Yun gritted his teeth and made a decision. He opened all the acupoints in his body, releasing a suction force and began absorbing the spiritual energy.

At the beginning, Jiang Yun still controlled his speed of absorption, in case there was any unknown danger hidden within the spiritual energy.

However, the moment the spiritual energy entered his body, it instantly brought a feeling of exhilaration throughout his entire being. There was absolutely no discomfort, and these spiritual energies were so pure that absorbing even a single strand was equivalent to absorbing hundreds in the Sea-Mountain Realm. Therefore, he simply opened himself up to absorption!

Not until a quarter of an hour had passed, and he was certain that these spiritual energies posed no danger, did he turn to the dumbfounded Tang Yi and his companion, saying: "You two should absorb them as well. They are very beneficial for cultivation!"

Both of them had been eyeing the treasures with envy for a long time, but they weren't as bold as Jiang Yun. Now that Jiang Yun had spoken up, they naturally wouldn't be polite either. They both walked over to Jiang Yun's side, sat down cross-legged, and began absorbing it.

But the two quickly looked at each other, their faces revealing a strange expression: "Strange, we can't absorb this spiritual energy."

Jiang Yun was slightly startled and said, "No way, it's the same as absorbing in the Shanhai Realm!"

After trying again, the two still shook their heads and said, "Really, we can't absorb it! It seems like only Senior Brother Jiang can absorb it."

Upon hearing this, a flash of inspiration crossed Jiang Yun's mind. His face suddenly lit up as he exclaimed, "Isn't this exactly what the Sect Master was talking about Gaining recognition from the Mirage Tower"

Daitian Youtuo told them all before leaving that to obtain good fortune, one needs the recognition of the Mirage Tower. As for how to gain recognition, it depends on their every word and deed, and they need to judge for themselves.

As Jiang Yun's voice fell, Lu Yourong also understood and said, "That's very possible! After Senior Brother Jiang just killed so many Yin spirits and took their Life Soul Stones, this vortex appeared."

Tang Yi also pondered thoughtfully: "Could it mean that in this world, as long as a certain number of yin spirits are slain, this vortex will appear, providing spiritual energy that can only be absorbed by one person, just like the mirage is our reward!"

Although the three people's guesses were very plausible, Gingercloud's heart was still filled with doubt.

Because only he knew, this world was not a mirage as it initially seemed, but merely an undigested world within the body of a ghostly beast. It had nothing to do with the mirage anymore.

Therefore, no matter what they do, themselves and their people should not expect to gain recognition from the mirage.

"Unless..."

A flash of light suddenly appeared in Jiang Yun's eyes: "Unless, in fact, every time the mirage leads to, it is only a world within the body of a Yinling realm beast!"

Even mirages could be controlled by Yinling Realm Beasts!

Ginger Cloud didn't dare voice the thought, for it was too terrifying. Even he couldn't believe it when he thought about it himself.

And there are some unexplainable problems as well. Many people who have gone to the mirage in the past encountered other beings that were not ghosts.

If Jiang Yun's guess is correct, then every time the mirage leads to the body of a Yinling realm beast, it should be nothing but Yinlings that they encounter, and no other beings.

"Could it be that within the mirage body, besides ghosts and outsiders like us, there are other creatures"

"If there is, then perhaps they could know how to leave this place!"

Thinking of this, Ginger Cloud's spirit was instantly lifted.

What worried him most was being unable to leave, but now he had actually discovered a glimmer of possibility. Naturally, his heart was filled with joy.

At this time, Lu Yourong's voice sounded again: "Senior Brother Jiang, actually, if you want to verify whether our guess is correct, it's very simple. We just need to leave this position and see if the vortex still follows you!"

"Okay, let's go first!"

Next, the three of Jiang Yun immediately left the place, deliberately speeding up their pace. In one breath, they flew out over a hundred miles away, and the vortex still stubbornly followed them.

Even after Ginger Cloud had slain several more Yin Spirits, the vortex's area expanded by a few points.

All of this is enough to prove that the three's guess was correct. Only by killing a certain number of ghosts will a vortex appear that provides a large amount of spiritual energy!

"It seems like the connections here are quite significant!"

After understanding this, smiles appeared on the faces of all three.

Just then, Jiang Yun's brows suddenly furrowed, and he raised his head to look around and said, "I feel that the spiritual energy is starting to decrease. It seems that someone, like me, has a vortex of spiritual energy appearing above their heads!"

Tang Yi and Lu Yourong were both startled and exclaimed, "Who is it"
