"Chen Changan."
"Advanced liver cancer."
"If you are hospitalized, you will need to relieve pain, stop bleeding, remove ascites, and use targeted drugs and immunotherapy drugs. Of course, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which are relatively expensive, are also essential. Family members should prepare money and go through the hospitalization procedures."
"By the way, how many apartments does your family have?"
Through the crack in the door, Chen Changan glanced at his father, whose face was full of despair, and his mother, who was fainting on the ground, and resolutely walked to the rooftop of the hospital.
His parents are both farmers, and it was not easy for his family to support a college student. He finally found a respectable job after graduation. In the past three years, he had to socialize a lot in order to improve his performance. Liquor was often poured down one bottle after another while holding his throat. .
Finally, the debt he borrowed to go to college was paid off, and Chen Changan's body completely collapsed.
In the advanced stage of liver cancer, there is no need for treatment. The so-called conservative treatment only prolongs his life from a few days to a few months on a cold hospital bed.
The price is the only house in the family.
Chen Changan was wearing a hospital gown, standing barefoot on the rooftop of the hospital, his face sallow.
“What a fucked up world!”
"But...but I...still can't bear to part with it!"
After taking a longing look at the world, he opened his arms and jumped down.
"If...if there really is an afterlife, I will definitely..."
boom! !
…
The eternal world.
Taishang Jiutian Palace.
"It has been three years since I broke through [Physical Strength Training]. The power of Qi and blood in my body has already reached its physical peak. No matter how hard I practice, I can't increase my strength at all."
In the dense forest at the back of the mountain, a young man in black carried a towering ancient tree hundreds of meters long on his shoulders, and then squatted and jumped repeatedly until the last bit of strength was squeezed out of his body.
This is the most common body-training method. There is no trick at all. You can only rely on breaking through the body's limits again and again to achieve the purpose of body-building and strength-building.
A young man named Chen Changan jumped from the rooftop and was actually reborn in a different world.
Unlike other protagonists in novels who cheat all the time, he, whose parents died early in this life, has been a slave of the Ji family of the immortal family since his birth.
More than ten years have passed by, and Chen Changan has learned more about the eternal world.
This is a different world full of spiritual energy, where humans and monsters are at odds with each other. Humans can absorb spiritual energy, practice and break through the realm, possess various magical powers, move mountains and fill seas, reshape rivers and mountains, and even become immortals.
Of course, all this has little to do with him, Chen Changan.
Because he, Chen Changan, is just a slave.
Unless something unexpected happens, his whole life is destined to be a life of serving others.
And the reason why he, Chen Changan, was able to enter the Taishang Jiutian Palace, the Holy Land of Cultivation, was entirely because of the eldest daughter of the Ji family.
The eldest daughter of the Ji family, Ji Fengyan, has outstanding talent in Taoism and is a true proud daughter of heaven. Three years ago, she broke through the tenth level of the mortal realm [Gathering Spirits from One Hundred Apertures] and entered the spiritual realm. She was then led to the spiritual realm by the "immortal" who traveled through the void. The Holy Land Taishang Jiutian Palace.
It is said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
After the eldest lady Ji Fengyan entered the Holy Land of Immortal Cultivation, she needed people to serve her, manage daily life, plant medicinal fields, raise spiritual beasts, etc.
Because of his natural sense of smell, familiarity with the cultivation of medicinal materials, and his flexible mind, hundreds of guards and thousands of slaves of the Ji family, including Chen Changan, were selected and entered the Taishang Jiutian Palace to serve the eldest lady Ji Fengyan.
Although he was lucky enough to follow the eldest lady Ji Fengyan and enter the Taishang Jiutian Palace, the Holy Land of Immortal Cultivation, he was lucky enough to be surrounded by misfortunes, and misfortunes were always there to rely on.
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. In this world of spiritual practice where people cannibalize people, if one is not good, it is not just as simple as not having enough to eat, but one may even lose one's life.
Beads of sweat gushed down his cheeks. The boy's starry eyes were as calm as water, and his still somewhat immature face was full of perseverance and determination.
boom! !
Chen Changan planted his feet on the ground, suddenly exerted force, lifted the towering ancient tree hundreds of meters above his head, and then threw it.
The ancient tree, which weighed more than a thousand kilograms, hit the ground straight, sending dust and smoke everywhere.
"If you want to break through the second level of the mortal realm [nourishing blood and refining qi], it will probably take five or six years just by practicing hard. If you want to break through in a short time, you must take some powerful supplements to increase qi and blood. .”
He has lived in Taishang Jiutian Palace for three years. Although he was born as a slave, he pays attention to everything in life and knows that the path of cultivation can be roughly divided into three realms.
Mortal realm, spiritual realm and the legendary Tao realm.
Each realm can be subdivided into ten heavens.
The tenth level of mortal realm:
First Level: Exercise and build strength.
Second Heaven: Nourishing blood and refining Qi.
Third Heaven: Copper skin and iron bones.
Fourth level: the internal organs.
Fifth Heaven: Nine Bulls and Two Tigers.
Sixth Heaven: Internal strength and bravery.
Seventh Heaven: Combination of hardness and softness.
Eighth Heaven: Qi and blood are like dragons.
Nine Heavens: Immaculate body.
Tenth Heaven: All Apertures Gather Spirits.
It is said that the human body is the most mysterious, with one hundred and eight acupoints hidden inside. The so-called gathering of spirits from one hundred apertures means that through continuous tempering of the physical body, one absorbs the spiritual energy that is free from the world and fills all the acupoints.
Thereby achieving a transformation, breaking through the shackles, transforming the mortal into spirit, and stepping into the spiritual realm!
Because he was born as a slave, he, Chen Changan, had no access to the specifics of the tenth level of the spiritual realm.
As for the more powerful Tao realm in the legend, it is even more unclear.
"In the first level of the mortal realm, you need to exercise your body and strengthen your strength. You can also continue to temper your body and increase your strength through brutal training. Although the method is stupid, it is a method at least."
While wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chen Changan frowned and said to himself:
"In order to nourish blood and refine qi in the second level of the mortal realm, you need to use certain tonic substances, such as ginseng, deer antler, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. to replenish qi and blood."
But whether it was ginseng, deer antler or Ganoderma lucidum, they were all rare items worth thousands of gold. Chen Changan, who was born as a slave, naturally couldn't afford them.
"I'm afraid it will take five or six years to get some results just by relying on ordinary rice."
If you do not enter the spiritual realm at the age of twenty, you will have no hope for the rest of your life.
In order to reach the limit of strength training, he has been stuck in physical training for three full years. Now that Chen Changan is eighteen years old, he can no longer afford it.
When it comes to spiritual practice, talent alone is not enough. Dharma, wealth, partners, and land are all indispensable.
Whether it is to replenish qi and blood, exercise muscles and bones, or build a clean body.
Without wealth, that is absolutely impossible.
Holding the ten taels of silver tightly in his arms and touching the black beads tied around his neck, Chen Changan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the road is boundless, plus the "legacy" left by his parents in this life and the monthly money saved in the past ten years, he can barely afford a century-old ginseng to replenish his energy and blood.
The essence contained in a century-old ginseng is equivalent to five or six years of hard training after refining, which is enough for Chen Changan to successfully break through the second level of the mortal realm to nourish blood and refine Qi.
As for the bronze skin and iron bones of the third level of the mortal realm, a thousand-year-old ginseng king is needed to temper the bones and muscles.
The Millennium Ginseng King, even if he sold Chen Changan, he still couldn't afford a Millennium Ginseng King's ginseng beard...
"I heard that in addition to these ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, which are great treasures for increasing qi and blood and strengthening muscles and bones, the elixir refined by practitioners is even more miraculous."
Chen Changan swallowed, his eyes full of hope:
"If I can get a snow ginseng pill, a blood nourishing pill, or a giant deer pill, I'm afraid I can break through the copper skin and iron bones of the third level of the mortal realm!!"
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Chen Changan wiped the sweat from his forehead and forced himself to wake up.
Although dreams are good, if you continue to be immersed in them, your whole person will become unrealistic.
Although the elixir refined by the monks is good, it is far beyond the reach of a small servant like him. For him, the right way is to stay down to earth and spend all his savings to buy a century-old ginseng plant.
"No, I was so busy practicing that I forgot that today is the day when the eldest lady Ji Fengyan starts refining alchemy!"
Thinking of this, Chen Changan was startled, and his face turned pale as a sheet of fright, and he ran towards the medicine field without looking back.
In Ji Mansion, he is responsible for helping the eldest lady manage some of the medicinal fields. Today is the day for harvesting elixirs, and the eldest lady is waiting for fresh medicinal materials to refine elixirs.
The eldest lady Ji Fengyan is not only the master, but also has the power of life and death. Three years ago, she also broke through the tenth level of the mortal realm [Gathering Spirits from One Hundred Apertures], entered the spiritual realm, and became extremely powerful.
If you offend the eldest lady, no matter the reason, you will be expelled from Ji Mansion or Taishang Jiutian Palace, or...
According to family law, he was beaten to death! !
If other people encountered this situation, they would definitely blame others and be unable to recover.
But Chen Changan, who has experienced life and death and has lived in two lives, naturally does not believe in fate, and naturally he is not willing to be a humble slave for the rest of his life.
As long as he is alive, there is always hope, and he is waiting for the opportunity.
An opportunity to soar into the sky.
I would rather be a beggar than a slave! !
