The sudden change made Gu Dan freeze.
Aokiye has always been his handy helper, and there is almost no time when he does something on his own without controlling it.
If we look back, the last time this happened was when he wanted to practice other inner breath techniques!
Logically speaking, the spiritual energy of creation should be a type of spiritual energy. How can He De and activate Qingmu Ye?
While thinking about it, the green wood liquid in Gu Dan's body had completely surrounded the aura of creation that had just broken in. No matter how the aura of creation rushed left and right, there was no way to escape the blockade of the azure wood liquid.
Looking under his body, he saw that the aura of creation seemed to be 'alive' in the flash of blue light. It was struggling under the blue light, like a thing on the verge of death or drowning.
But the gap between the two is too big. In Qingmuye's home court, the resistance of the Creation Spiritual Qi can't make any waves at all. In the flash of green light, all the strands of white light are peeled off and strangled!
The aura of creation was gradually unable to resist any longer, and only the purest aura remained, which began to slowly integrate into Gu Dan's body. At this time, the Qingmu Liquid had completed its purification and returned to its own place.
Gu Dan was left alone in shock and puzzled.
The aura of creation actually caused Qingmuye to take the initiative!
Is it possible that the so-called source of spiritual energy is also something left over from an extremely long-standing inner breath technique?
Or is there something secretly at work here that he hasn't figured out yet?
Recalling the spirit of creation that was struggling like a living creature under the green light of the Green Wood Liquid, Gu felt a chill in his heart.
The aura of creation seemed to be conscious. After entering his body, it was not as obedient as it was in Huang Chao's hands.
If this is the case, it is no wonder that Huang Chao rewarded him so generously and did not even interrogate him too much.
Once the spiritual energy of creation is allowed to take root in the body, is it equivalent to leaving a 'back door' in the body?
In any case, what Gu Dan can be sure of is that there must be something weird in the source of spiritual energy, even the spiritual energy of creation, and even the Huang Dynasty!
This Buzhou Mountain Range has no real connection with the White Lotus inheritance place in Yuzhou of the Xia Dynasty, right? !
While his mind was moving, Gu Dan's expression was as calm as ever. Thousands of threads collided in his mind, and his alertness level was raised to the highest level.
At this time, if Huang Chao dared to make any move, he would rise up and capture him.
Fortunately, what he was most worried about did not happen. Huang Chao always stayed around the holy lotus without any movement, just waiting for them to refine the aura of creation.
The creation spiritual energy that had been thoroughly cleaned by the Qingmu liquid left only the purest spiritual energy, which gradually merged into his Qihai Dantian. It hardly required any refining, and its effectiveness was far better than anything recorded in the classics. A kind of elixir that is worthy of the name of creation.
He had just been promoted to the seventh level of Qi training with the help of the Three-leaf Spiritual Vein Flower. Logically speaking, he should have settled down for a while before trying to improve his realm. However, with the help of the Creation Spiritual Qi, his aura was improving rapidly.
The spiritual energy purified by the three-leaf spiritual vein flower, along with the pure spiritual energy from the spiritual energy source, merged into it and continued to grow. In the blink of an eye, most of the air sea was filled with mist-like spiritual energy, and even the breath was steadily improving.
Finally, when Gu Dan absorbed all the gifts of the spiritual energy of creation, only about one-tenth of the air sea was not covered by the spiritual energy, which also meant that he had successfully advanced to the eighth level of Qi training!
In addition to the improvement in strength, the spiritual energy in the sea of qi is all in the shape of mist, which means that his foundation is extremely solid and there is absolutely no frivolity.
With spiritual energy of this quality, even if it is a low-grade spiritual root, it will not be difficult to advance to foundation building, saving ordinary monks decades of hard work.
Putting aside the danger of the aura of creation itself, for the low-level monks, this is really a kind of creation.
After a long time, after his aura stabilized, Gu Dan opened his eyes, and the light flashed away. His face was calm with a hint of joy, and he said with great sincerity: "The aura of creation is really extraordinary."
"That's right. The aura of creation can also cleanse your own aura, which is why I didn't ask you to wait until you reach the ninth level of Qi training before using it."
Huang Chao looked at Gu Dan, who had successfully absorbed the spiritual energy of creation, with a hint of kindness in his eyes, "Since you have broken through to the late stage of Qi training, you are not too far away from foundation building. You can make more military exploits. , even if there is no reward for creating spiritual energy, you can still get foundation-building spiritual objects."
"That's what Hall Master Huang Chao said."
Gu Dan naturally did not refute, but immediately turned his attention to Lu Yu.
At this time, Lu Yu's whole body's aura was fluctuating, and the pure spiritual energy around him was gathering crazily into his body, and the strong pressure of spiritual energy lingered around him.
Shockingly, they are attacking the realm of foundation building!
Lu Yu's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and his muscles and bones were trembling all over. It was simple to say that the spiritual energy was turning into liquid. One improper operation could cause the spiritual energy to run wild, or the spiritual energy to explode in the body.
Even if he is a master, he will never be able to withstand that kind of power.
But Lu Yu had no choice. He was one of the masters who were about to expire. If he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to be promoted to Foundation Establishment, where would there be so many good opportunities waiting for him?
What's more, this place is where the source of spiritual energy is, and it is surrounded by pure spiritual energy. There is no place more suitable for promotion than here.
With the help of the spiritual energy of creation and the source of spiritual energy, today he will attack the realm of foundation building!
What Gu Dan really wanted to observe was not the process of Lu Yu's promotion to foundation building, but the impact of the unpurified spiritual energy of creation on him.
Unfortunately, perhaps because he was still not knowledgeable enough, he was completely unable to distinguish the places on Lu Yu's body that had been changed by the aura of creation.
About half an hour later, Lu Yu's body no longer trembled, his breath gradually stabilized, and a pressure from the inside out naturally spread out.
Huang Chao touched his palm and said with a smile: "Ningfang has added another foundation-building monk."
Gu Dan glanced at Huang Chao's face and was convinced that the joy was not fake. At this time, he was no longer afraid of offending others and asked naturally: "Master Huang Chao is watching the people behind him chasing after him. Aren't he worried about threatening himself?" Isn’t the status achieved?”
"What is this nonsense?"
Huang Chao sneered and said: "The immortal way is so wonderful! Where are you now? Just practicing Qi and building the foundation, what kind of competition is that? Don't be narrow-minded. There is a golden elixir on the foundation, and there is Yuanying on the golden elixir. Don't think about it. How can you move forward bravely and think about all those messy things?
You must remember that in the immortal way, strength is respected. Working hard to improve your own strength is more important than worrying about being caught up and threatening your status! "
His voice was stern and serious, and he had the demeanor of a strict teacher.
However, it was impossible for Gu Dan to believe him any more, so he just took the opportunity to ask again: "Since we want to improve our strength, let me see how the source of spiritual energy looks like a lotus? It has some similarities with a spiritual plant.
Since it can emit infinite spiritual energy, wouldn't it be more effective if it could be absorbed by itself? "
"The source of spiritual energy is a miraculous thing that is born and raised by the earth. How can people absorb it? If it can really be absorbed, can there be an immortal workshop?"
Huang Chao glanced at Gu Dan and said lightly: "What, you want to give it a try?"
"Since the hall master said so, I naturally believe it."
Gu Dan lightly shrugged, naturally not wanting to give it a try.
The Aoki Liquid has been used to create the spiritual energy. If you really encounter the source of spiritual energy, God knows what it is. What if the Aoki Liquid can't handle it?
"Hey, I'm done!"
While speaking, Lu Yu had already opened his eyes, his foundation-building aura was unmistakable, and his brows were filled with joy.
"good."
Huang Chao nodded, "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Lu, it's time for the Law Enforcement Hall to add a deputy hall master."
"Thank you, Master."
Lu Yu quickly bowed to thank him. Even though he had been promoted to Foundation Establishment and was considered to be at the same level as Huang Chao, he still admired Huang Chao's character.
People are in high spirits when happy events happen. Lu Yu, who has just made a breakthrough, is very pleased with the look of Gu Dan. He comments: "Promoted to the late stage of Qi training? Not bad. The creation aura has the effect of purifying the aura. It can't be said to be a waste. I used to have more Say it.”
"Not as good as fellow Daoist Lu."
Gu Dan also bowed his hand kindly, "I have just been promoted not long ago, and I still have some thoughts that need to be sorted out, so I won't bother you two."
After saying this, he bid farewell to this place without being hindered.
Returning to his cave, Gu Dan frowned.
Completely beyond his expectation, the identity of 'Kong Zhai' was not suspected by Huang Chao at all.
Of course, the greater possibility is that the other party has absolute self-confidence, and is confident that it doesn't matter what disguise he wears.
The aura of creation was probably the bait used for fishing, but Gu Dan couldn't figure out who he was fishing for.
What is more worthy of his concern is that since the spiritual energy source can give birth to something like the spiritual energy of creation, is the spiritual energy born from the spiritual energy source really clean?
Gu Dan's eyes darkened slightly. That was the worst plan and the most malicious speculation. Even the aura itself might have problems.
Although everything is just his own thoughts now, and he is probably making a fuss, this kind of early warning is still ringing in his heart.
The expression on Gu Dan's face changed several times, and finally his eyes suddenly became firm.
Mist-like spiritual energy gradually floated out of his body, and his immortal realm was also falling rapidly.
In the late stage of Qi training, in the middle stage of Qi training, and in the early stage of Qi training, there is no spiritual energy!
More than ten years of hard training can be exhausted in just a short moment.
"Ordinary people are reluctant to part with it because it is not easy to get it."
When he no longer had any spiritual energy, Gu Dan took a deep breath and said, "But I'm willing to do it!"
No matter who set up this situation in Buzhou Mountain Range, since he has noticed something different, Gu Dan is naturally not prepared to stay here anymore.
The outside is a real 'spiritual land', and even if one does not dissipate his cultivation, his cultivation will gradually decline.
In this case, what's the use of keeping this spiritual energy that makes him feel grudge?
If the aura itself is really some kind of mark, it has exposed itself.
He had already made up his mind to build a foundation. If he couldn't refine Qi, he would definitely not be able to take a step closer to the Buzhou Mountains. At worst, he would wait until a real immortal came to the world and there was spiritual energy everywhere in the world before he could practice again.
He has more time than anyone else. Life is the most important thing to him. Protecting himself is the most cost-effective and worthwhile thing at any time.
In comparison, those in the late stage of Qi training are not even worthy of carrying shoes.
What he gave up was only for a moment, but what he fought for was a lifetime!
When the spiritual energy completely disappeared and the air sea was "empty" again, Gu Dan felt a trace of relaxation and joy for the first time in a long time. Not only was there no trace of reluctance, but he was in a great mood.
"In practice, you should also follow your heart."
Gu Dan seemed to be aware of it. Although his overall strength dropped slightly due to this, he felt a lot better. With his mind flowing freely, his strength did not necessarily decline.
No matter what the source of spiritual energy is, or what plot he has behind his back, he can't afford to hide it.
At that moment, he simply packed up his things. He didn't even bring a single spiritual stone with him just to be on the safe side. Gu Dan was already ready to leave Ningfang.
Before leaving, Gu Dan hesitated for a moment and then walked towards Zhuang Sheng's cave.
"Brother Kong?"
Zhuang Sheng was quite happy to see Gu Dan, "I just received the news that brother Lu Yu has been promoted to Foundation Establishment. You must have gained something too!"
"Zhuang Sheng."
Gu Dan called him by his name for the first time here, and then said: "You have no pursuit of spiritual practice, but are you interested in walking in the mortal world?"
"Um?"
Zhuang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then said: "Brother Kong, why did you say this?"
"Cultivation here is very boring, and it is far less free and comfortable than in the ordinary world. As cultivators, what we seek is to be free and comfortable, not to be trapped in a cocoon.
It's a pity that many people, when they come here, feel that immortality is everything to them, and even forget their original intentions because of this. It's only now that I'm finally realizing it. Prepare to go down the mountain and travel around the mortal world, maybe for a few years, maybe for decades. "
Gu Dan said directly.
Zhuang Sheng didn't have such a strong pursuit of cultivation, otherwise he wouldn't have practiced Qi at the fifth level until now. If he really paid attention to it, he would never reach this level.
He is one of the few people who truly enjoys the Immortal Way, but what he pursues is not the improvement of his realm, but the satisfaction of his inner thoughts through the Immortal Way.
What's more, Zhuang Sheng can be regarded as his descendant in the Xia Dynasty in a sense, so it's okay to inform him in advance before leaving.
As for whether to listen or not, it all depends on Zhuang Sheng. After all, he can only be responsible for himself. Speculating on such things cannot be directly used as a basis, and naturally it is even more inconvenient to talk about.
"I thought it was something."
Zhuang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with it. In fact, the mundane wonder of 'Carp Jumping over the Dragon Gate' that happens every fifteen years is coming soon. I was just about to go down the mountain for a walk. Since Brother Kong has This idea, how about we go shopping together?"
"Is the carp leaping over the dragon gate? You can go and see it."
Gu Dan nodded.
In the eighty-ninth year of Xianlin's reign, the two monks left Ningfang together.
No one noticed their departure.
