Shen Mo traveled thousands of miles to patrol the Tianyu Territory for two main purposes.
One, naturally, is to look for opportunities to strengthen one's own accumulation, thereby promoting the growth of the realm of cultivation.
The second is to have an in-depth understanding of the situation in the Xantian Territory, and if the conditions are ripe, prepare backup plans for the Linjiang Zongju sect to move to this territory.
To say which point is more important, of course it is the former.
In the world of immortality, one is powerful enough to solve almost all difficult problems.
If Shen Mo had the strength to defeat the Heavenly Lord of the Shenqiao Realm, he wouldn't have to go through as much trouble as he does now. He could just move the Linjiang Sect here and conquer the Xantian Taoist Temple.
If he were a seventh-level being, not to mention, all the Tengshes entrenched in the Linjiang Mountains would have to be boiled into snake soup!
Of course, even if he has the Destiny Panel, his cultivation will not happen overnight, and now he cannot "break the situation with force".
Especially after entering the middle stage of Yuan Dan, his cultivation level almost stagnated.
My strength is still growing. After all, I have the destiny of [Performing Martial Arts], so I can continue to deepen my attainments in various immortal arts and martial arts!
As for the sub-professions such as the Dan Fu Weapon Array, thanks to the acquisition of all Linjiang Sect's secret scroll collections and the benefit from the unique environment of the Xuntian Domain, the progress has been pretty good.
[Destiny: Shen Mo]
[Cultivation: Mid-stage Yuan Dan realm]
[Tao of Talisman: Fourth Grade (7163/9000)]
[Alchemy: Fifth Grade (1185/12000)]
[Forging: fifth grade (495/12000)]
[Array: Third Grade (3770/6000)]
His attainments in Alchemy and Forging have both entered the ranks of the fifth rank; Talisman Dao is not far away from the fourth rank.
Only for the Formation Dao, apart from setting up the Formation Restrictions on the Xuntian Building Ship and constructing the Mountain Protection Formation at Chong'a Mountain, there were no other opportunities to practice. After being promoted from the second level to the third level, it has not been touched for a long time.
"It was only then that I truly understood the difficulties faced by Ancestor Yuan and the others!"
"It's so helpless to sit and watch time go by without any improvement in your Taoism."
"It would be great if I could be like the mutated demon soul general, and my cultivation level could continue to rise just by devouring the blood and food of living creatures..."
As soon as these thoughts emerged, Shen Mo became alert, and he immediately chanted a mantra and blessed himself with the Mahamudra of the Eastern Blue Dragon Qisu Heart.
As the lifelike and extremely agile Xinyue Fox's shadow merged into his body and soul, Shen Mo's mind instantly became clear, and then he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"The slightest flaw is revealed in the Taoist heart, and the backlash of the Soul Refining Flag will follow..."
"There is really no room for any negligence!"
There is a demon soul in the flag that has entered the fourth level, and this evil magic has become more and more magical.
Even if Shen Mo reshaped the Demon Soul General sequence and used demons to control demons, greatly reducing its counterattack power, it would still have a certain impact on himself.
When he couldn't make any progress in his cultivation and became impatient, this influence took advantage of the situation and made him have evil thoughts...
If Shen Mo doesn't notice it and ignores it, his mind will become distorted and lose its true nature over time; he may even go astray and become an evil cultivator controlled by the Soul Refining Flag!
If you want your Tao mind to be as clear as a bright mirror, you have to wipe it from time to time.
Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Shen Mo sacrificed a middle-grade spiritual stone to [Yanwu] Tianming, so that Yanwu Dao body could practice immortal martial arts.
As for himself, he took out the Fire Chi Pill Cauldron, Green Lotus Fire, and many spiritual medicinal materials, and began to refine a furnace of fifth-grade spiritual pills!
…
Every time the level of the elixir increases, the time taken to refine it will increase several times.
Like Zhao Lingyin, it only takes two or three hours to refine a furnace of second-grade elixir; but it takes a whole day and night to refine a furnace of third-grade elixir.
It is common to not sleep for days and nights when refining a fourth-grade elixir!
Other talents, spiritual flames, techniques, etc. are not as good as her alchemist, and it takes longer to refine a pot of elixirs.
Even if Shen Mo could rely on the panel to fully increase his proficiency in the elixirs he had mastered and greatly shorten the elixir refining time, it would still be impossible to refine a batch of fifth-grade elixirs in less than ten days and a half.
During the more than half a year he lived in Wangxian Mountain, he refined a total of seven furnaces of fifth-grade elixirs. Most of the other time was spent refining third-grade and fourth-grade elixirs.
This is also one of the reasons why his sub-professional attainments improve more slowly as he gets later!
While the elixir was being refining, he hung a "no disturbance" jade sign outside the cave, telling monks who came to visit and buy elixirs to wait patiently for a while.
On this day, he finished refining a batch of fifth-grade Drunk Death and Dream Life Pills. As soon as he opened the cave ban, a charming and charming voice came in.
"Fellow Daoist Shen... Aunt Hong is here to visit, and I hope to see her at all costs!"
As Shen Mo's spiritual consciousness spread out, he "saw" a charming and beautiful woman wearing a bright red neon feather dress, standing at the door of the cave with a smile on her face.
The alchemy seekers who had been waiting for Shen Mo to come out of confinement these days were pushed aside, so scared that they didn't even dare to breathe.
"It turns out that Fellow Taoist Red is here, and it really makes me shine in this dilapidated cave!" Shen Mo personally welcomed her into the cave and poured the high-quality spiritual tea that he had recently obtained.
Hong Gu, like Shen Mo, is a monk in the middle stage of Yuan Dan realm.
She has lived in Wangxian Mountain for more than a hundred years, and has many industrial shops under her name, spread throughout the market town of Xianfang.
Moreover, Honggu also has some knowledge of alchemy and is a third-grade alchemist.
She came to visit when Shen Mo first came to Wangxian Mountain.
Later, as the reputation of "Master Shen" for alchemy gradually spread, she came and went more and more frequently, and would come over from time to time to ask Shen Mo about alchemy!
Shen Mo also often purchases various spiritual materials through the store under her name.
After going back and forth, Shen Mo became familiar with her, and she was one of the few friends of the same level he had in Wangxian Mountain.
After staying in Wangxianshan for a long time, Shen Mo also had some idea of Honggu's identity.
It is said that she is the concubine of a high-ranking person in the Lishan Dan Sect, and she was involved with him when she was still in the Linghai Realm; her ability to achieve Yuan Dan was inseparable from the favor of that high-ranking person in the Lishan Dan Sect.
In addition, many of the industrial shops under her name are also owned by the Danzong senior executive, and Honggu is just putting on a name and managing them on her behalf.
Because of this relationship, the immortal cultivators in Wangxian Mountain may criticize her behind their backs, but openly they all hold her in awe...
After all, this gathering place in Wangxian Mountain is under the jurisdiction of Lishan Dan Sect!
Shen Mo didn't look at her strangely. Those who could cultivate to the middle stage of Yuan Dan Realm were all outstanding among people. In the Scarlet Flame Territory, they could be regarded as ancestors.
As for what kind of life she chooses, as long as it doesn't harm him, he won't make any judgments.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, you came here today, but you have some difficulties in alchemy. Do you want to discuss something with Shen?" Shen Mo poured himself a cup of spiritual tea, sipping the fragrance and asked.
Hong Gu smiled sweetly, and as soon as Fang opened her mouth, her charming voice was tingling into the bones, making it difficult for ordinary people to resist.
"Honggu came to visit Taoist fellow Taoist today not to make elixirs or anything like that!"
