"The Tao...the Tao..."
Calls full of obsession and evil came from the ancient altar in the confession cave of Miaoyin Sect. Compared with the confession cave that once had no sound, it seemed even more eerie and terrifying.
A woman with a cold temperament was sitting cross-legged under the altar, seemingly engaged in some mysterious practice.
She was wearing a long white dress, with a slender figure and skin that was better than snow. Her indifferent temperament made people involuntarily attracted, as if she was an ice and snow goddess from the far north.
On the huge stone altar in front of him, countless unknown symbols and mysterious patterns carved on it were already bright, exuding an unfathomable mysterious aura, causing the air around the altar to flow slowly.
A row of candles were placed around the altar. The candlelight swayed slightly in the airflow. The weak candlelight reflected on her body, casting a huge demon-like shadow on the rock wall behind.
Suddenly, a powerful aura of spiritual power burst out from the woman's body, causing her hair to dance with a brilliant aura.
The woman opened her cold eyes and floated up.
Three and a half years, it took her three and a half years to break through from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage of foundation building.
For her who possesses high-grade spiritual root qualifications, this speed is quite fast. If there is no influence from external objects...
"road......"
Another evil, unspeakable and strange force burst out from the depths of her soul.
Luo Bing's eyes suddenly became dark and obscure.
After a moment, she exhaled and her expression became a little colder.
The rancid smell and dark power overflowing from the altar at the rear also gradually shrank back.
Luo Bing breathed a sigh of relief and immediately flew out of the confession cave.
Since she suddenly "awakened" three years ago, she has found that her ancestor's influence on her has gradually diminished.
Although it would also affect her mind, at least she was not completely confused.
Even when she took the initiative to think about how to obtain Taoism for her ancestors, the impact on her mind would gradually diminish.
The Patriarch's power also changed with his recovery, as if he gradually gained a little more wisdom to think about.
Or maybe something happened three years ago that prompted this strange change.
She didn't know what happened three years ago or where the leader Han Yongxu was now.
She only knew that the leader, Han Yongxu, was in a very bad condition. The soul card that was connected to him inside the door was cracked, but not completely cracked. It seemed to be in a very dangerous state.
But this also made it easier for her to use the influence of her ancestors in the past three years to gradually join the high-level core ranks of the Miaoyin Sect.
Only then did he fly out of the Confession Cave, and a row of respectful worship sounds came from outside the cave.
"See Chief!"
Luo Bing glanced around and landed on an old man with a goatee who was in the middle stage of foundation building. His temperament was cold and flat.
"Senior Brother Liu, when you return from the Luo Family, can the Luo Family Ancestor give you a satisfactory reply?"
The old man with goatee's beard looked slightly stiff, raised his hand and said with a smile, "Chief, the ancestor of the Luo family still refuses to let go, and brought out the senior of the Dan Sect in response."
Luo Bing's eyes flashed with blackness, and he said calmly, "Okay! You don't have to worry about this matter."
The old man with the goatee smiled coquettishly, and after bowing, he congratulated Luo Bing for his breakthrough in strength, and his heart was even more awe-inspiring.
In the past three years, he has watched this junior sister, who used to be cold and indifferent, gradually win the support of many deacons and elders in the sect very quickly, and take the position of chief.
Even the two late-stage foundation-building elders in the sect who had always been the confidants of the sect now fully support Luo Bing, which is quite abnormal, as if the entire Miaoyin Sect has been affected by a strange atmosphere.
Especially when he was near the confession hole, he felt extremely obvious heart palpitations.
Now, Luo Bing has broken through to the late stage of foundation building. Apart from Han Yongxu and the two elders in the late stage of foundation building, Luo Bing is the strongest in Miaoyin Sect.
If Han Yongxu still doesn't return after a few more years,
I'm afraid Luo Bing will take the position of acting head from chief.
...
Spring passes and autumn comes, with leaves falling and branches sprouting again. In the blink of an eye, a year later.
The longevity clan boundary.
Inside Chang'an Square.
Several longevity sect foundation-building monks smiled and raised their glasses politely in the restaurant, clinking glasses and drinking with Chen Dengming.
"Senior Brother Chen, the reputations of you and Senior Sister He as the Immortal Couple of Changchun are quite famous in the longevity sect. When are you going to hold the wedding ceremony? Let us know first so that we can prepare gifts in advance."
"Yes, we can't miss this wedding wine."
Chen Dengming drank all the wine in the cup and said with a smile, "It's coming soon, in half a year at the latest. I will definitely invite you fellow Taoists by then, and I hope you will appreciate it!"
"Senior Brother Chen, you are so, so polite. Being able to attend your wedding banquet is a credit to us. Every time you come to our place, you invite us out to drink and reminisce..."
"That's right, Senior Brother Chen, you are a guest from afar, and we should fulfill our friendship as landlords. This time I, Sang Tianrong, will treat you. You fellow Taoists will drink the best spiritual wine. You can't let Senior Brother Chen spend any more money."
"Why?"
Chen Dengming stopped him with a smile and said, "Junior Brother Sang, what you said is wrong. Since we are all brothers, how can you say that I am a guest from afar?
Could it be that I won’t come to the longevity sect in the future? "
As soon as these words came out, the round-faced monk who was raising the cup was stunned and quickly explained.
The other two monks on the side started making noises.
"Junior Brother Sang, what you said is indeed wrong. I will punish myself with a drink!"
"That's right, punish yourself. But I say that Senior Brother Chen and Junior Brother Sang are right in some things. You can't always invite us..."
Chen Dengming laughed and raised a glass with Sang Tianrong, who was about to punish himself, and said, "Okay, all the junior brothers are right, then I will punish myself with a glass of wine together with fellow Taoist Sang."
But this time today, I’m the one who invited you. It’s mainly because I have some small matters that I need to ask your fellow juniors about..."
"Senior Brother Chen, that's what you said. With our relationship, if you have anything to ask, you can just ask directly using the sound transmission jade talisman. You don't have to be so polite!"
"That's right!"
...
Less than half an hour later.
Chen Dengming smiled and gave away some local specialties from the Changchun Sect, and waved goodbye to the three longevity sect foundation-building monks.
To maintain this relationship, we have to rely on regular contact.
Even though he is now a monk who is about to break through the fake elixir.
But there are many fake elixir monks in the longevity sect, thirteen in total, and there are six golden elixir monks.
If you take yourself too seriously and put yourself on a high pedestal, you will have to endure hardships if you go to the longevity sect. At least some tedious troubles will be inevitable.
Therefore, in the past six months, in addition to his normal cultivation, Chen Dengming also often came to the territory of the longevity sect to familiarize himself with the environment in advance. .
At the same time, I also made some Taoist friends from the longevity sect and inquired about some of the rules and things to pay attention to in the longevity sect beforehand.
Moreover, if you have many friends, you will be able to be like a fish in water when you enter the longevity sect in the future, and you will not be like a green-faced person who is not familiar with the place in life.
"I didn't expect that the war had only stopped for four years, and the sects of the Eastern Region would so quickly launch a campaign against the Demonic Path of the Western Region... Why bother? The Western Region is so barren. Apart from monster resources, what good is there?"
Chen Dengming complained about the exact news he had just learned, feeling a little depressed.
It has only been stable for four years, but now some sects in the Eastern Region are starting to cause trouble again.
However, this time the Eastern Region sent troops to the Western Regions, it was also a famous battle. It was a demon-killing campaign launched by Tiandao Sect, with the main theme of "revenge".
Four years ago, the Demonic Way of the Western Region invaded with arrogance and killed many people. Many monks from the sect died in that war.
Many of their relatives and descendants want revenge, but the vast majority of them have no chance or ability.
Now Tiandao Sect has joined forces with Shu Jiange and Five Elements Escape Sect.
When the sect ascended the throne and called for a counterattack, they would completely encircle and suppress the Demonic Path of the Western Region, defeating the Demonic Path of the Western Region to the point of collapse, and never dare to invade the Eastern Region again.
By shouting this slogan, he became a master of justice, attracting countless monks and sects who wanted revenge to join him.
Fortunately, Chen Dengming has found out that the longevity sect still has a main purpose of not contending with the world.
Except for a few individuals, no elders or ancestors have expressed their intention to get involved.
But things like war...
The further it goes on, the harder it will be to say.
Chen Dengming had already prepared for the rainy day. He ordered people to start buying a lot of strengthening pills, Qi Qi Powder and some materials for refining magic weapons in Chang'anfang more than ten days ago.
Now when I look at the prices of the products in the shop more than ten days later, it is obvious that they have increased a lot.
A tense atmosphere that had been absent for several years reappeared and began to brew.
…
When Chen Dengming left Fangshi, a roar came from the distance, and the majestic figure of the black clouded leopard flew towards him like a black cloud.
Amid the respectful looks from all around, Chen Dengming drove the Black Clouded Leopard and left quickly.
On the way, someone blocked the way.
The black clouded leopard swooped down and landed. The power exuded by the foundation-building monster made several people on the road turn pale. What was even more frightening were the two lines of words on the belly of the foundation-building monster. It was simply shocking. .
"Senior Chen!"
Among the people beside the road, a burly monk in black stepped forward respectfully, held a storage bag in his hands, and said with a smile.
"Prices have skyrocketed recently. I only received these materials for my seniors. There are still seven high-grade spiritual crystals that have not been used. The list is in the storage bag. Please take a look at it, seniors."
"No need."
Chen Dengming took the storage bag with a smile, opened it, took out a high-grade spiritual crystal, and threw it into the hands of the monk in black.
"I can rest assured that you, Heifeng, are doing your best. You have helped me solve these trivial matters over the years."
The monk in black received the spiritual crystal and bowed hurriedly and respectfully, "Thank you, senior, for your praise and appreciation."
"Now that the war is coming and the future is changing, I'm afraid many things will be hard to say. You should also keep your eyes open. The matter of cutting roads and robbing darts should be restrained recently..."
Chen Dengming reminded him, and then drove away in the Black Clouded Leopard, regardless of whether the other party listened.
Heifeng, a tenth-level Qi refining monk, was someone he had known for a long time.
They first met because of the other party's profit sharing from a dart robbery.
Later, he created the Gu Refining Field. For a long time, Heifeng and his brothers took care of the safety of the goods shipped from the Gu Refining Field to Chang'anfang.
He stopped opening the Gu refining field a few years ago.
The profit was too small, and he had to refine the Gu personally every few months, which was time-consuming and thankless.
However, Chen Dengming still has contact with this black wind. This person is also clever and clever. He recently helped to purchase supplies. It was mainly because this person was running errands, which saved him a lot of energy.
...
A moment later.
When Chen Dengming returned to the Changchun sect cave, he heard a roar coming from the room.
The energy was vented out of the room, carrying a strange burnt smell.
"Senior sister, failed again?"
He shook his head and walked into the room with a smile. He used a cleaning technique to clean away all the dust and smell in the room. Seeing He Yingyu's gray-haired face, he couldn't help laughing.
"Why are you laughing? I'm not just trying to make you a powerful second-level top-level robe. When you go to the longevity sect, you will also have decent clothes, huh!
Unfortunately, it still failed and a lot of materials were wasted..."
He Yingyu caressed the shaken temples with an unhappy look on her face.
Chen Dengming shook his head and said, "Sister, I told you, don't worry, you haven't reached the foundation building level yet. Now when you are refining the second-level top magic weapon, especially the magic robe, the success rate is definitely not high, so you should take your time. ..."
He Yingyu curled her lips, "Even if the success rate is not high, you still have to be familiar with the practice. These weapon refining are all done through practice. It doesn't mean that you can immediately refine something better if your level of strength increases... It's just that, It did consume some materials, so it seems I have to take some time off recently."
"It's okay, I just collected a lot of materials for you here."
Chen Dengming smiled and took out the storage bag that Heifeng had just given him.
It is indeed very expensive to improve this weapon refining technique.
Although He Yingyu seems to be very wealthy on weekdays, in fact, every family has problems that are difficult to recite.
If you just refine magical weapons with higher efficiency and sell them, you will definitely make a profit without losing money, and your money will accumulate like a snowball.
But if you tinker with research and refine a new magic weapon yourself, and it is a high-level magic weapon, the failure rate will naturally be extremely high, and the loss of materials will be extremely expensive.
Seeing the materials Chen Dengming took out, He Yingyu blushed and said movedly, "Junior brother, the materials have increased a lot recently, right? I think I'd better stop first, and as you said, practice to build the foundation first. It’s perfect, it’s not too late to think about it again…”
"It's okay. I asked people to earn money in advance at low prices. Some of the items I am hoarding now can be sold later and I will still make money. If I have money, it will be easier to make a fortune.
You can practice as long as it doesn't delay your cultivation. "
"Well, I only practice when I feel bored. The main thing is to break through as soon as possible. I think in half a year, I should be able to use Sanyang Crystal..."
Chen Dengming suddenly smiled mysteriously, "No hurry...are you still bored now? If you are, I will practice with you."
He Yingyu was stunned for a moment, and rolled her eyes at Chen Dengming with her dreamy eyes. Then a shy smile escaped from the corners of her pretty lips, "I'm a little annoyed..."
Chen Dengming laughed, picked him up by the waist, and said, "Then let's solve this little problem first..."
...
afterwards.
Chen Dengming stared at the progress of "Changchun Gong" on the panel.
""Changchun Gong" (ninth floor 48829/50000)"
Skill proficiency increased by 10 points.
Except for the first time they practiced together, every time they practice together with He Yingyu, the proficiency of Changchun Gong will increase by about 5 to 10 points. The specific effect depends on the situation at that time.
For more than four years, Chen Dengming often practiced with He Yingyu in his spare time. The two of them benefited each other to some extent.
However, this kind of practice is most effective if it is maintained once or twice every two or three days.
If the frequency is too frequent, the effect will be extremely poor.
Now Chen Dengming only needs to practice for less than twenty days before he can break through the ninth level of Changchun Gong and enter the ranks of the fake elixir overhaul with complete foundation building.
Since He Yingyu still has the Sanyang Crystal that she has not used yet, her speed will not be much slower than him.
Chen Dengming stood up and walked out of the house. He looked at Xu Wei who was chatting happily with He Yingyu in the hall and sighed inwardly.
Four years have passed. Although Xu Wei has cultivated into the realm of ghost cultivation as a day-traveling ghost, he is not afraid of the sun, wind and rain, and lives like a normal person, but it has stopped there.
Obviously, Xu Wei is not like Zhu Xun.
Even the ghost talent is not outstanding.
In this way, it will be difficult to extend the Yin life by improving the cultivation level. I am afraid that it will not be long before the fragrance disappears and the jade is dead.
This matter is no longer possible.
Chen Dengming had already been mentally prepared, and Xu Wei was quite positive and optimistic every day, seemingly ignoring the countdown of his life.
No one can catch the passing time. What everyone can catch is to live each day well.
...
Eighteen days passed in a blink of an eye.
Chen Dengming took advantage of these eighteen days to practice hard.
In the end, Huangtian paid off.
This day.
Within the cave, an extremely powerful spiritual power suddenly emerged from the cave.
The spiritual energy around him is swarming like a tidal wave.
Inside the cave.
"Roar--"
The eyes of the black clouded leopard guarding the door flashed with fear and joy, and he looked at the scene inside the cave with wide leopard eyes.
Three dazzling golden lights could be vaguely seen flashing in the cave, making the rock walls in the cave full of golden light.
Chen Dengming was sitting cross-legged in the cave. His body was floating under the majestic tide of spiritual energy. His body was covered with rays of light, and his hair was like spiritual rain. Three dazzling golden lights condensed on his forehead, chest and abdomen, exuding strong spiritual energy. fluctuation.
The foundation building is complete, and I hold three false elixirs, which is a major repair for the false elixirs!
At this time, there was no longer any spiritual mist floating in the upper, middle and lower dantian of Chen Dengming's body.
The spiritual essence that was once like three pools of water has condensed into three groups of fake pills that "look" between liquid and solid.
The liquid-like energy around the fake elixir is the spiritual essence.
The almost substantial golden solid energy inside is the elixir power of the fake elixir.
The reason why the fake elixir is called Daxiu and is different from ordinary foundation-building monks is because of the existence of this elixir power.
Even if the elixir power is not as pure as the elixir power of the Golden elixir cultivator, it is still much stronger than Lingyuan, and there is a qualitative change.
Therefore, if the fake elixir overhaul activates the magic weapon to fight with the late-stage foundation-building monks, even if there is only a small realm gap between the two sides, the elixir power will be enough to easily suppress the spiritual energy of the late-stage foundation-building monks.
At this time, spiritual lights quickly gathered outside Chen Denming's cave, and many of his fellow disciples were alarmed.
Upon noticing the strong and shocking pressure coming from Chen Denming's Cave Mansion, as well as the three dazzling golden lights, Guan Le, Wang Xuanfei and other foundation-building monks were in a trance.
Shehu was a little surprised, "Fake elixir overhaul, Junior Brother Chen actually mastered the fake elixir so quickly?"
Bian Shen looked admiring and envious, "If you go one step further, it will be a real major cultivation of the golden elixir... With a lifespan of eight hundred years, you can start your own school outside..."
Wang Xuanfei was a little in disbelief, "Junior Brother Chen, it seems that he only broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment five years ago, right? It's only been five years... Could it be that Master He gave her Sanyang Crystal to Junior Brother Chen?" "
When everyone heard this, their hearts moved and their expressions varied.
If it really relies entirely on the Three Yang Crystals, it may not be possible to break through the Golden Elixir in the future. After all, it is not obtained through down-to-earth cultivation, and the foundation will ultimately be unstable.
Then there's nothing to praise or envy, it's okay for me to go to you.
"Hmph...you guys are looking down on me too much."
At this time, He Yingyu's figure flew over from one side.
She was wearing a light long dress, her hair was shawl-length, her manners were elegant and had a natural grace and nobility that made people dare not look down upon her. She was plain and proud and said, "My Sanyang Crystal is still in my hand." , Junior Brother Chen broke through completely by relying on his own strength."
Everyone's expression changed slightly.
This Changchun Immortal Couple, they had always thought that Chen Dengming was just enjoying the glory of He Yingyu, but now it seems...
"Junior Brother Chen, you are indeed very qualified. Master Qiu did not misjudge the person."
Liang Yunsheng's voice suddenly came, and his figure fell from the sky.
"Senior Brother Liang!"
Everyone saluted one after another.
In the cave, Chen Dengming's voice also came out at this time.
"Senior Brother Liang, I'm sorry, it's just a matter of course..."
As soon as this voice came out, everyone felt a strong spiritual power increase, forming an astonishing momentum, accompanied by three dazzling golden lights, appearing at the door of the cave in front.
This is just a breakthrough, and it has not yet been able to contain its spiritual power.
Everyone could only immediately use their spiritual energy to resist. For a moment, energy flowed all around, and the spiritual power was strong.
At the entrance of the cave, Chen Dengming's body was shrouded in a subtle golden light, and the light appeared and loomed between his eyes. When he looked around at everyone, his eyes seemed to be looking directly into people's hearts. The heaven was vast, with white hair flying on his temples, standing there. There is an out-of-this-world flavor.
Immediately, Guan Le and many other foundation-building monks bowed their hands and congratulated him.
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Chen for completing the foundation building and completing the major repair of the fake elixir! In the future, the golden elixir can be reached and he will live eight hundred years!"
Chen Dengming laughed loudly, raised his hands and bowed from left to right, and then from right to left, and said humbly and calmly, "Thank you all senior brothers for congratulating me! Chen and my senior sisters have already made a decision. No matter who takes the fake elixir first, they will choose a good time and auspicious day." , hold a wedding banquet and invite colleagues to celebrate together!"
When He Yingyu heard this, her face turned rosy and happy, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Although she had been prepared for this matter for a long time, now that Chen Dengming solemnly announced it in front of her fellow disciples, she still felt extremely moved and happy.
When everyone heard this, they all congratulated each other and smiled happily.
No matter what you think in your heart, this outward kindness must be maintained.
Even if Chen Dengming had not stepped into the fake elixir, the name of the Immortal Couple of Changchun alone was enough to make most of the monks around him maintain a kind smile.
Not to mention, Chen Dengming was already in a fake elixir overhaul today. A dog passing by would immediately laugh when he saw it.
Looking at the faces of everyone smiling and congratulating.
Chen Dengming responded one by one, feeling emotional in his heart.
That year, I was eighty-three years old, born in the seventh level, sleeping on the street in a gathering place, like a gangster.
This year, ninety-two, the fake elixir will be overhauled, and he will catch up with his fellow disciples and become a big boss.
It only took him five years from the seventh level of Xiantian cultivation to the late stage of foundation building. During this period, he consumed a huge amount of spiritual crystals, elixirs, Sanyang crystals, life essence and other resources, but he was better than fast enough.
However, it took him a full four years from the late stage of foundation building to the breakthrough to the completion of foundation building. During this period, he had frequent interactions with He Yingyu, otherwise it would have taken at least five years.
Now, it is really possible to see the moonlight when the clouds open, at least half of the moon can be seen.
The next step is to wait for He Yingyu to break through the false elixir, and the Changchun Immortal couple will both enter the longevity sect and go to the golden elixir road together.
Chen Dengming has a wish, which is to enter the golden elixir when he is 100 years old.
One hundred years of golden elixir and eight hundred years of life, looking back on the human world for several springs and autumns...
Now that things have happened, it's time to go back and see Qiangzi and the two babies.
There is also the Ancient Human Immortal Palace. We have to try to see if we can break through the evil star's blockade and get one more Dao Wen.
After greeting the fellow disciples, Chen Dengming immediately pulled He Yingyu out of the sect. Taking advantage of the beautiful scenery, the two of them and Xu Wei had a small celebration outside.
At the same time, Chen Dengming also informed He Yingyu of his plan to return to Nanxun Land, and told him to practice well in the sect and not to worry...
