Ning Tao's battle with Ding Taohou was not mentioned to outsiders.
This battle made Ning Tao see some of his shortcomings.
The most important one is because of the rapid growth of cultivation and a slightly illusory foundation.
Of course, this illusory foundation is only compared to Ning Tao's previous experience. For other monks, Ning Tao's foundation is considered to be very deep.
Now that my cultivation level has reached no further level, I only need to consolidate my foundation to be ready to break through to the Mahayana realm.
Before that, if he wants to give birth to the fourth Buddha head of the eight-armed ape demon body, he still needs to practice the "Vajra Demon Subduing Technique" that he is currently practicing to the seventh level of perfection.
There are nine levels in this "Vajra Demon Subduing Technique", and Ning Tao only has the first eight levels in his hands.
Among them, the seventh level of perfection corresponds to the level of perfect union, followed by the eighth level of Mahayana realm and the ninth level of transcending tribulation.
In the realm of refining and integrating the void, one could condense the golden body of Vajra and Subdue Demons, but Ning Tao did not do so.
Because the condensation of the golden body requires some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the difference in the treasures used will affect the foundation of the golden body to a certain extent.
If Ning Tao had majored in this Buddhist technique, he might have condensed a golden body long ago.
But Ning Tao had a second choice, so he naturally put this matter behind.
In addition to the practice of Buddhist techniques, Ning Tao has turned to Yuan Mo for help over the years and obtained two eighth-level five-element spiritual objects, Liangsexi soil and Yimu crystal stone.
Now Ning Tao only lacks one kind of Kangui water that condenses the spiritual roots of the five elements, so he can get all the five spiritual objects.
When the five phoenix true spirits surrounded and killed the black jade, he had given birth to the Five Elements Spirit Root.
But if you can collect enough Five Elements treasures, after you advance to Mahayana.
Then you can use the secret methods in the "Five Elements True Method" to improve your qualifications again.
Opportunities like this don't come around all the time. Although my qualifications are no longer matched by anyone in this world, I have seen a glimmer of elegance in the upper world.
Ning Tao's vision is much higher than that of other geniuses, so he will not take advantage of this opportunity to increase his qualifications.
Could it be that we have to wait until it becomes increasingly difficult to improve as our cultivation levels get higher before we can improve our qualifications?
Regarding how to advance to the Mahayana realm, Ning Tao asked Yuan Mo and other Mahayana monks to find out.
The monks need to supplement the Qi of the Five Elements to take the soul one step further and reach the state of perfection.
Of course, not all races have this obstacle. This obstacle is mainly limited to the human race.
Completing the five spiritual root attributes does not require practicing Five Elements spells.
Instead, he uses the Five Elements spiritual objects to supplement his own Five Elements Qi, so that the physical body can withstand the Mahayana-level soul.
For the existence of some heavenly spiritual roots, this time is the most difficult.
After all, the monks of Tianlinggen all practice exercises with a single attribute. After a long period of practice, the spiritual energy of other attributes in the body has hardly nourished the physical body.
Therefore, at this stage, many integrated monks are often restricted from advancing. Often, their lifespan is exhausted and they are unable to replenish the energy of the five elements in their bodies.
But for monks like Ning Tao, who has the spiritual roots of the five elements, there is no problem at all in the integration of the five elements when advancing to Mahayana.
...
In addition, over the past thousand years, Ning Tao's alchemy skills have progressed rapidly.
It has reached the seventh-level high-grade level. It only needs to be slowly tempered to refine the eighth-level elixir, and then one can successfully advance to the eighth-level alchemist level.
After the Kunyuan Spirit Fire swallowed up the Fire Spirit Bead, it also successfully reached the level of the Great Perfection of Fusion.
The Netherworld Orb also advanced quickly. After devouring the massive amount of blood evil energy and the Ghost Dao Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures prepared by Ning Tao, it also reached the level of perfect integration.
At this time, the blood baby in the corpse demon flower is sitting on the stamen of the corpse demon flower.
Holding a bloody flying sword in both hands, he is practicing.
Ning Tao received the "Tao Xin Cultivating Sword Technique" from the Seven Swords Taoist but did not practice it himself.
Mainly because this kind of secret technique requires a lot of energy from oneself, and there are too many techniques that one can practice at the same time.
It would be absolutely unthinkable for others, but it happened to be possible for Ning Tao.
Although it may appear to others that he is wasting his resources by not practicing this extremely powerful secret method.
But there is still a shocking skill in his hand that he has not yet practiced. It can even be said that he has not yet reached the threshold of practice.
This skill is exactly the upper realm skill that was obtained in Cangming Mansion.
"Wan Ling Xuantai Jue"
This technique is a terrifying technique that can swallow thousands of true spirits and develop the embryo of one's own great path.
Ning Tao doesn't dare to show this skill in front of anyone now, if it is exposed.
I'm afraid that it will attract thousands of true spirits to hunt me down.
....
After years of gestation, the Corpse Demon Flower has reached the seventh level of perfection.
But if you want to break out of your body, you still have a long way to go to swallow it.
Looking at the blood baby who was cultivating with pure spiritual energy and demonic energy, Ning Tao turned over his hands and took out some top-quality spiritual crystals and magic crystals. After replenishing the blood baby, he withdrew.
Over the years, Ning Tao has consumed a lot of resources.
As his cultivation became more and more advanced, Ning Tao, who supported several large gold-devouring households, consumed nearly half of the resources he received each time.
Without Ning Luan and Hu Yue'er, Ning Tao felt that his training was a bit boring.
I couldn't help but think of what the Qingluan and Bingfeng said. Once they reached the Mahayana realm, they could try to contact the girls.
Maybe we can still find old friends from the past, and wonder how they are doing in cultivation?
...
After some simple practice, time flies and more than ten years have passed.
It's time to return to the demon world again. Four thousand years have passed since he came to the spirit world to act as a proton.
In four thousand years, Ning Tao has cultivated his cultivation to the level of Great Perfection. With this speed of cultivation, he should be able to catch up with the cultivation speed of other saints.
...
Ning Tao, who returned to the Nine Nether Demon Realm, has just returned to the Twin Peaks of Lingtian City.
Then a long roar was heard.
The deep magic power shot straight into the sky, scattering the dim magic clouds in the sky and scattering them in all directions.
Hearing this roar, the demons in Lingtian City stopped what they were doing and looked into the back mountain.
These demons below the Mahayana realm thought that a new Mahayana demon lord was born among the demons, and they couldn't help but feel envious.
But those Mahayana demon lords knew that this was not the case. The demon lords who stayed in Lingtian City came out of seclusion one after another.
Arriving in front of the Twin Peaks, they exchanged their thoughts and discussed something.
Many Demon Lords showed joy on their faces, as if they were even happier than themselves for advancing.
Among these demon lords, Ning Tao met an old acquaintance of his.
Motianhe, the perfect monk who once served as the protector of Xuanyin.
Unexpectedly, after thousands of years, Motianhe's strength has successfully advanced to the realm of Mahayana Demon Lord.
Motianhe said with a smile after seeing Ning Tao.
"I didn't expect that the little monk in the past would be almost as good as me today. It's like the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each generation becomes stronger than the last!"
Before Ning Tao could say anything modest, he saw a ray of light flying out of Qi Yan's cave and coming to the crowd.
When everyone saw Qi Yan's appearance, they all bowed and bowed.
"Congratulations to the Master Qiyan Demon for his great progress in cultivation. He will be able to advance to the level of transcending tribulations soon!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan helped everyone up with a smile on his face and laughed.
"Thanks to the great blessings of my disciples, otherwise I would not be able to recover from my previous injuries so easily and advance further!"
Ning Tao had a look of surprise in his eyes when he heard that Qi Yan had advanced to the state of Mahayana perfection.
Seeing Ning Tao's performance, Qi Yan stroked his long beard and laughed.
He led several demon lords into his cave, chatted for a while, and inquired about the latest news on the Holy King Continent.
Everyone resigned in a sensible manner.
Ning Tao is still looking at Qi Yan, who has greatly improved his cultivation.
Wasn’t the previous Qiyan cultivation level close to the perfection of Mahayana?
How come after thousands of years of seclusion and cultivation, I directly reached the cultivation level of Mahayana and Great Perfection.
Seeing Ning Tao's confused look, Qi Yan was in a good mood and smiled.
"What? I've advanced to the Great Perfection as a teacher, which surprises you!"
Ning Tao nodded naturally when he heard this.
"Didn't Master reach the level of perfection before? Why did he directly break through to the Mahayana and Great Perfection state in just a few thousand years?"
"Hahaha, you kid, you underestimate me too much. You must know that I am the genius of the Demon Clan who became famous earlier than that old boy Lingtian. If it weren't for the mistakes in his cultivation later, how could this old boy be allowed to Become the Lord of Lingtian City and bear the title of Lingtian!"
When Ning Tao heard this, he was still a little confused, but Qi Yan continued to explain.
"I originally thought that there was no possibility of recovering from my injuries, but I didn't expect that my encounter with you, my boy, actually allowed me to encounter an extremely rare divine soul treasure, which allowed me to recover from my injuries. With accumulated experience, my cultivation level naturally increased by leaps and bounds. !”
"Now that I can recover from my injuries, I can even take a chance on the legendary tribulation period. Whatever reward you want, no matter what reward I have, as long as I can get it, I will try my best to satisfy you!"
When Ning Tao heard this, he thought for a moment and then said.
"I wonder if the master has any auxiliary items in his hand to advance to the Mahayana realm. The disciple is going to retreat to advance to the Mahayana realm recently, and he happens to lack the corresponding treasures in his hand. I would also like to ask the master for a gift to help the disciple take a further step!"
Qi Yan heard this and said to Ning Tao.
"Although you are my disciple, you have basically never relied on me for your own cultivation. Since I have chosen you as my disciple, this matter should be taken care of for you. Otherwise, my disciples in the future will not even be able to reach the Mahayana realm." Yeah, it’s really a bit embarrassing for me!”
Then Qi Yan continued to speak.
"Apart from this, do you have any other requirements? I allow you to say one more thing. Your boy has become the Holy Son of the Holy King Alliance. I have not congratulated you yet. After that, you went to the Earth Spirit alone for the great plan of our demon clan. Realm, hard work pays off, and I will try my best to fulfill your requests as a teacher!"
When Ning Tao heard this, he looked at Qi Yan who was a little emotional. After thinking about it for a while, he spoke.
"I wonder if Master has any blood technique that can advance to the tribulation stage?"

Some people died, but not completely...
