Changsheng has been condensing spiritual liquid in the hell training room for three consecutive days.

It took 4 days to condense the spiritual fluid to cure dark diseases for the 200 Hell Guards. Later, it was condensed by Meng Wei and used by more than 300 people for 3 days.

Now, Mingquewei brought him materials for 1,000 people, and it only took 3 days for him to achieve immortality.

Feeling the progress of his soul power, Chang Sheng was also overjoyed. He knew very well that the reason why his soul power increased so quickly was because of the immortal essence he had obtained from Mingque Mountain before.

"Grandpa, this is for you. My sister made it delicious."

Xiao Zi held two cherry-like objects in her hands and floated leisurely in front of the two elders of the Hun family.

If you look closely, you will see that they are not cherries, but two pink condensation water droplets as big as cherries.

"Xiao Zi is good, grandpa won't eat it, so Xiao Zi will eat it." Hun Li slapped Hun Shuo's hand away and said to Xiao Zi lovingly.

"You're so old, but you still need food for children. Are you ashamed?" Hun Li glared at Hun Shuo.

"Miss Xiaoyu, this liquid does taste good." Hun Shuo scratched his head and said in an old voice.

In the pavilion in the courtyard, Zai Zai was lying lazily at Xiaoyu's feet. There were several condensation droplets of different sizes and colors floating in front of her.

Zaizai would stretch his neck from time to time, "suck" and suck one into his mouth, and then smash it into his mouth. It looked very delicious.

On the stone table in front of Xiaoyu, there are dozens of spiritual grass and spiritual plants and some spiritual fruits of different colors. The delicious condensate water droplets were condensed by Xiaoyu.

After finishing the elixir condensation of longevity, he came to the martial arts academy's own courtyard. Seeing this scene, his heart was filled with warmth.

He knew that only if his cultivation and soul power were stronger could he make this warmth and happiness last longer.

Cultivation depends on swallowing the true essence, but the immortal essence can be obtained from Mingque Mountain.

Early the next morning, Changsheng arrived at the foot of Mingque Mountain after having breakfast. He put on his Tianyin bamboo hat and used the Soul Hiding Technique to lean on him, and then began to walk cautiously and quickly towards the mountain.

More than three hours later, Changsheng finally touched the top of the mountain.

At this time, there was still one stick of incense left before noon, but Changsheng could not approach the depression. Because the golden-horned fire-tailed cow was lying on the edge of the depression.

Changsheng touched it quietly and moved forward, until the Golden-horned Fire-tailed Ox seemed to notice it and no longer dared to move forward. Then wait quietly with bated breath.

Finally, as the sun rose three poles higher, the entire depression was under direct sunlight, and threads of immortal essence floated in the depression.

The immortal consciousness cautiously reached out, but was surprised to see the golden-horned fire-tailed cow extending its head into the depression. To be precise, it extended its two golden horns into the depression.

After a few breaths, a trace of immortal essence floated into one of the golden horns. It quickly turned its head to let this horn leave the depression, leaving only the other horn in the depression.

After a few more breaths, a trace of immortal energy drifted into the horn.

The golden-horned fire-tailed cow stood up and walked quickly to a distance of seven or eight feet. Then it bent its front legs slightly, lowered its head and closed its jaw at a strange angle, and pressed the tips of the two golden horns into the ground of a cluster of spiritual grass.

As the golden horn entered, the immortal essence in the golden horn entered the soil.

It is actually using fairy essence to nourish the cluster of spiritual grass? Chang Sheng in the distance was shocked.

There are about twenty spiritual grasses in this cluster, covering an area of ​​only one or two feet.

On the top of the mountain, which is full of bushes, this cluster of spiritual grass stands out. But the bushes are about half a foot high, and the spirit grass is only about a foot high.

If you don't get close, you won't be able to see it.

After careful inspection with the immortal consciousness, he discovered that these clusters of spiritual grasses were actually all-attribute spiritual grasses with seven attributes: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder.

Full-attribute spiritual grasses are rare, and can even be said to be rare. However, because its attributes are balanced and not outstanding, it cannot be used to make medicine and make elixirs.

To the monks, it is no different from those weeds on the ground.

But full-attribute spiritual grass was once something that the spiritual beasts from the ancient and ancient times flocked to. Because they are not only effective in extending longevity, but also have the most basic characteristics of the transformation grass.

Transformation Grass------As the name suggests, it is the spiritual grass needed for spiritual beasts to transform into human form.

However, the Transforming Grass has become extinct since the spirit-killing war at the end of ancient times. Even if you take out the Transforming Grass, no one in the current world of cultivation will recognize it.

Before the Spirit-Destroying War at the end of ancient times, there were no so-called monsters. There were only spiritual beasts and ordinary beasts that were born with intelligence.

The vast majority of spirit beasts can achieve the purpose of transforming into human form through their own cultivation. Only the transformation of some special spirit beast races requires transformation grass or related transformation pills.

For spirit beasts, turning into human form is just to make it easier to deal with humans.

But most spirit beasts disdain to take on human form. They can do what humans can do, and they can even do what humans can't.

And for spiritual beasts to ascend to the fairy world, they only need to reach a certain height in cultivation.

However, after the Spirit-Destroying War, due to the great changes in the laws of heaven, all spirit beasts were unable to ascend to the fairy world through high cultivation. Instead, they had to first transform into human form and then ascend through high cultivation.

But at this time, the spirit beasts can no longer directly transform into humans. All spirit beasts must use transformation elixirs or transformation grass to do so.

As the laws of heaven become more and more stringent, there are fewer and fewer spiritual beasts that can use the transformation grass or transformation-like elixirs to transform, and the spiritual beasts' intelligence is slowly getting lower and lower.

It was not until the 1.87 millionth year after the war, that is, at the beginning of the Ancient Era 2.76 million years ago, that finally no more spiritual beasts could take the form of humans, and no more spiritual beasts could ascend to the fairy world.

From then on, there were no longer any spiritual beasts in the world of cultivation, but only levels of monsters.

That is to say, starting from this year, the world of cultivation began to have a spiritual year, which was the first year of the spiritual calendar, to commemorate the former spiritual beasts.

The year when the spiritual beasts became extinct also drew the curtain on the Ancient Era, which lasted for more than 3 million years, and entered the Ancient Era, which was long and lonely for the human race and lasted for 1.93 million years.

These perceptions flashed through Chang Sheng's mind, and the correlations recorded in the history books were almost the same.

Back to business.

After the two strands of immortal essence entered the soil, the golden-horned fire-tailed cow lay down on the edge of the depression and stretched the two golden horns into the depression.

Chang Sheng guessed that either the immortal essence posed a certain threat to the golden-horned cow itself, or only its pair of golden horns could absorb the immortal essence. Moreover, one should not take too much immortal essence. It is safest to take a small amount in each golden horn.

After going back and forth four times, due to the westward setting of the sun, as the first shadow appeared in the depression, the immortal essence suddenly disappeared. The golden-horned fire-tailed cow also lay down next to the cluster of spiritual grass.

It seems that if you want to get the immortal essence, the golden-horned fire-tailed ox is the biggest obstacle.

After returning to the martial arts academy, Changsheng still felt a little unbelievable. What he saw at Mingque Mountain Peak shocked Changsheng quite a bit.

The Golden-Horned Fire-Tailed Ox has reached the fifth level and is already possessed of spiritual intelligence. Although it cannot speak or transmit spiritual thoughts, the fifth-level monster can completely transmit spiritual thoughts to humans.

The all-attribute spiritual grass and spiritual plant itself has the effect of extending longevity for monsters.

The Golden Horned Ox also uses fairy essence to nourish them, which shows that the Golden Horned Ox intends to use them to transform and even ascend to the fairy world.

Even humans can no longer ascend to the immortal world. How dare this golden-horned ox dare to hope? But it hasn’t even reached the sixth level?

Early on the next morning, Changsheng had just left the underworld and wanted to buy bean curds to send to the martial arts academy. But he saw Xiaoyu, Fatty and even Tu Lao, Hun Li and Hun Shuo coming to him. Xiaoyu also held several breakfasts in her hands.

"Brother Changsheng, today is the eighth day of July."

The eighth day of July? Time flies so fast! A year has passed unknowingly since he possessed the soul. While lamenting the passage of time, Changsheng's mood also dropped.

In the past, every year on this day, he would die inexplicably, and then the dragon would wake him up and bring him back to life. But this year, who knows what will happen after the dragon enters soul sleep?

"After little girl Jade told me about you, I was also very curious. I originally wanted to take you to the slaughterhouse. But think about it, in terms of safety, there is no better place in Mingque than your underworld."

Tu Lao paused and said, "What do you think?"

"It must have triggered some kind of divine punishment." Chang Sheng said listlessly.

Hun Li shook his head: "The basis of heaven's punishment is the law of heaven. It is a certain incident against a certain person, or a certain person under a certain incident. It is a one-time event. Once you get over it, it will be fine."

"But Young Master, this seems to be a kind of karmic calamity, involving reincarnation. But I don't understand, since the road to reincarnation in the Wuji Realm has been cut off, how can there still be a causal calamity on Young Master."

"It means that the reincarnation of the young master is not only in this infinite realm, but also not only in this world of cultivation."

Hun Shuo's words made everyone look at Changsheng in surprise. Changsheng shrugged and said he didn't know anything.

However, Changsheng basically concluded that this was a karma of cause and effect.

Because the dragon said that he was not from Jiexing in the first place, but he was reincarnated here in this life.

On this day, everyone was relaxed on the surface and did nothing. They only talked and chatted with Changsheng in Nether Prison Changsheng's room.

At noon, Changsheng made a sumptuous lunch, and everyone enjoyed eating and drinking for more than an hour.

Dusk has arrived in the blink of an eye, and everyone seems to have forgotten about immortality, chatting about the past and interesting stories. When the moon rose, everyone came to the outside of Hades Prison, and Mr. Tu slaughtered a sheep himself and roasted it.

The excitement lasted until early morning. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and went back to rest.

There is only immortality, and there is a hint of uneasiness in the doubt.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Changsheng looked at the Black Dragon Ring, the shoulder armor and the silent nine-story black tower in front of him and thought.

In the past year, apart from possessing a divine soul and being able to swallow true energy, the changes that have occurred to me are these.

The accidental death that lasted for 17 years ended this year, and it may be related to these.

Just as he was thinking about it, Changsheng suddenly felt something was wrong. Because the nine-story, six-sided and eight-sided black tower in front of him seemed to have a spiritual connection with him.

With a thought, sure enough, Changsheng appeared on the first floor of the black tower.

The inside of the black tower is different from the outside. It looks very spacious, at least more than a hundred feet in diameter, and more than ten feet high. You can't tell the material of the black tower from the outside, but the inside is paved with large blue bricks and is spotless.

Each of its six walls is made of a single piece of blue brick, and there is a huge bird relief on each side.

This bird is red and orange and looks like a ball of flame rising high in the sky. Three long tail feathers are graceful and elegant, and a pair of wings are even more overwhelming.

The slightly curled phoenix crown on the top of his head and his bright and cold eyes make people want to worship him.

Suzaku!

These two words appeared in Changsheng's mind.

Looking at the Suzaku relief in a daze, Changsheng couldn't help but think of the origin of Mingque Mountain. Legend has it that millions of years ago, the mythical beast Suzaku once rested in this mountain, hence the name Mingque Mountain.

The entire Mingque Dynasty was also named after Mingque Mountain.

Changsheng looked around the tower and found a stone staircase leading to the second floor. Under the stone staircase, there is a ball of yellow airflow with a radius of six to seven feet, which looks exactly like the yellow airflow covering the inner wall of the Mingque Mountain depression.

I can't see or detect what's inside this airflow? Changsheng didn't dare to touch it, for fear of being sucked in again.

After walking up the stone staircase for about ten feet, a wall of the same yellow air flow blocked the way. Changsheng stood in front of the airflow wall for a few breaths, but also did not dare to touch it.

Changsheng stayed in the tower for a stick of incense. After finding nothing else, he returned to the sea of ​​​​consciousness with a thought.

Changsheng comes back to the sea of ​​consciousness every day, and every day he tries to communicate with the black tower and enter the black tower. But not once was it successful.

Why today? Why can I enter the Black Tower on the eighth day of July? What is the connection between this and my own karma?
