Mysterious Catastrophe

Page 366

"For more than 200 years, the Foundation Establishment Overhaul is going to die of old age, but I am still immortal... Oh, how lonely eternal life is..."

As for other skills and spells, most of them were practiced by Aaron to the point of perfection.

Because of the lack of monsters, Aaron has no interest in the lure of monsters, and has not made much progress.

However, the 'Huiyuan Jiufang' simply lacks Lingmi, and there are not many opportunities to practice, so the progress is slow.

Even so, Aaron occasionally disguised himself and went to Dongmenfang City to buy a batch of Lingmi, made it into wine and buried it.

This spirit rice wine...it gets better and better with age. From now on, the wine that was the earliest one sixty years ago has become a real old wine. Aaron tried it himself and felt that the taste was at its peak. Presumably, even the old alcoholics among the immortal cultivators would not Can't resist its temptation.

"It's a pity...even though I've been paying attention, I haven't had the chance to inherit the Four Arts of Cultivation."

This kind of inheritance is the foundation of the family and sect, and it is difficult to obtain it without undergoing major changes.

"However... the big change is coming soon."

Aaron muttered to himself.

After so many years, Dongmen Clan's double spiritual root cultivation genius, 'Dongmen Xue', has already established his foundation and became the new Patriarch of Dongmen Clan.

However, the original head of the family - 'Dongmen Hong' abdicated as the Supreme Elder and was dying of old age.

As for the original ancestor, he naturally died of old age long ago.

Even 'Dongmen Xue' is more than 100 years old, half of her life is already over, if she can't form alchemy in the future, it will only be 100 years.

What is even more deplorable is that the Dongmen family has also experienced a situation of neglect.

Especially 30 years ago, the genius Dongmen Leopard who had high hopes in the family failed to build a foundation, which cast a heavy shadow on the upward momentum of the Dongmen family...

"When Dongmen Hong and Dongmen Xue die, maybe the Dongmen family will encounter catastrophe!"

"When the time comes... What is the difference between Dongmen Fangshi and a little girl who is bullied?"

"But... I still won't make a move!"

"At most... wait until the chaos is over, and buy the stolen goods..."

"Why would you kill someone who can be traded with spirit stones? How precious is life? I'm so compassionate..."

Aaron sighed, looked at the exercise column, and frowned slightly.

Even though the aura in the mortal world is thin, and he needs to use the "spring wind and rain technique" from time to time to irrigate the medicine garden, but after spending 60 years of painstaking practice, he finally reached the perfection of the ninth level of Qi refining some time ago, and only one step away from breaking through to the state of Dzogchen !

However, this step is stuck here, it has been a year!

Unlike the previous practice, even though it is very slow, you can always see the change in proficiency every once in a while, which provides confidence.

But this time, Aaron slowly polished his mana, but he didn't feel the slightest loosening of his realm.

After a year, no progress in cultivation has been seen, which is enough to make any immortal cultivator feel desperate!

"Am I... have I finally encountered a bottleneck?"

"That's right... I'm a three-spiritual root, and my aptitude is not bad... If it's four-spiritual root or five-spiritual root, I'm afraid I'm just like Donglong, stuck to death by the bottleneck in the early stage and mid-stage, stuck to despair!"

"But even if it was me, when I broke through the Great Perfection in the late stage of Qi refining, I also encountered a bottleneck... It is normal for a cultivator to encounter a bottleneck. I am afraid that only the Heavenly Spiritual Root will have the slightest bottleneck before the alchemy. I have never encountered it, not even a foreign spirit root!"

"Ahhh...I want to add some..."

"However, on the main body, there is no way to provide spirituality at all... The point-adding function of this golden finger has long been abolished."

"As for the contact? It's timeless, and it can't deliver accurate and enough information..."

"Several attempts to sacrifice, except for letting me know that the main body is safe, there is no other information..."

"So, we still have to use orthodox methods to break through the bottleneck."

The so-called orthodox way, Donglong old man said before.

Either go to fight and gain understanding from the front line of life and death, or buy a panacea that can help break through the realm!

The former Aaron will definitely not take risks, while the latter has no spirit stones!

'Red Ginseng' and 'Black Sudden Mushroom' have matured a lot, but now they are not selling well, and there are not many spirit stones, so it may not be possible to buy the spirit pills smoothly.

So Aaron did what was cheapest and safest to him—wait!

Grind slowly with time!

I only practice for one hour a day, and then I travel around the mountains and rivers, take care of the elixir garden, and silently wait for the breakthrough of the bottleneck!

Perhaps this kind of state of mind of doing nothing and being neither arrogant nor impetuous is very conducive to breakthroughs. In just ten years, Aaron seized an opportunity when he was watching the tide one day, sat cross-legged, and successfully broke through the exercises The bottleneck has been repaired to the tenth level of the 'Hunyuan Jue'!

At this point in the practice, the Qi refining period has been completed, and you can try to build a foundation.

"Finally the tenth floor... The tenth floor of the Qi refining period is actually a state, which means that as long as you are willing to fight, you can build your own foundation. The success rate is less than [-]%... I will definitely not be able to fight... "

"Pinch your fingers and do the math... It took me about 130 years to finally complete the Qi refining period, which is about the same as the estimate..."

Aaron felt a little sad.

Some time ago, he went to the 'Yuanyuan Inn' and got a letter from the owner, knowing the news of Dongfang Shuo's sitting.

Well, he has been in contact with his boss all the time, and of course he later adopted the name of 'Fang Yu's descendants' to let the vest of 'Fang Shiyu' come out of the world again.

Through the letter, I also learned the inside story of the young man's sitting.

Relying on the Jindan Sect of the 'Qingdingmen', even though he encountered several dangers, Dongfang Shuo's path was much smoother than his own Laozi's, and he had also cultivated to the state of great perfection in qi refining.

It's just that the feats he has accumulated for most of his life are not enough to exchange for a 'Building Foundation Pill' from the door, and then he watched himself pass the age of 60 and became increasingly desperate.

In the end, when he felt that his life energy was about to be exhausted, Dongfang Shuo fought desperately, took the Great Pill that increased Qi and blood, and forcibly built the foundation, but of course failed.

The younger the age to build the foundation on your own, the better. Wait until the life essence is about to run out before building the foundation?The success rate may not even be one percent or one thousandth!

As for why there is a connection with Dongfang Shuo?

Aaron naturally had other plans.

On his little book, there is also the name of Qingdan from Qingdingmen!

However, he didn't take the liberty to inquire through Dongfang Shuo, but just expected the other party's reply to reveal some clues inadvertently.

"Unfortunately... there is no..."

"Back then, more than 200 years ago, Daoist Qingdan changed from the Cao family to the Scarlet Blood Carp King... This spirit fish is also effective for immortal cultivators in the Qi refining stage, so it may not be suitable for foundation building and overhaul..."

"Two hundred years have passed, even if my enemy has established a foundation, he will die of old age... Unless Qingdan can form a pill, he may not be able to survive now...Fortunately, his sect is still there, and his family may still be there... ..."

"When I was more than 200 years old... Some of the spiritual roots of some heavens may have become Nascent Souls, and I was able to refine Qi and achieve great perfection... Fortunately, if I take revenge, it will not be too late for a hundred years or a thousand years!"

Aaron stretched his waist and walked out of the cave.

He was going to go to Dongmen Gufang City.

After cultivating to the tenth level of Qi Refining, the next step is to prepare for foundation building.

But neither the Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique nor the Foundation Establishment Pill...Aaron has any.

Even, he is a "parallel importer" with nothing to do, not to mention the rare spells, and all the magic weapons in his body are low-grade, not to mention that other qi refining Dzogchen generally have a middle-grade magic weapon set, and he can't even find one come out!

'But... as long as I don't do anything, no one else will know. '

"Qi Refining and Great Consummation can almost walk sideways in Dongmen Valley. Except for Foundation Establishment and Overhaul, no one will sell face, and few people dare to provoke it!" '

'And...will I fight with immortal cultivators at the same level?I will only bully those whose cultivation base is lower than mine, much lower! '

"Shilipo Sword God, Xinshoucun abuse trumpet, I like it best!" '

While doing a routine inspection of his elixir garden, Aaron found that the 'nine-eyed crabapple' had already bloomed, and most of the lines on one eye had been completed.

"70 years in the blink of an eye, I'm about to become a begonia at a glance, but unfortunately... still can't sell a few Lingshi."

"Also, even the aura here is actually a bit difficult to supply the 'Nine-Eyed Begonia' to continue to grow. If I hadn't come here for a spiritual rain from time to time, I'm afraid it is very likely that it will stop growing..."

Aaron walked out of the valley spring and came to the edge of the elixir island.

At this time, he saw several fishing boats approaching, and couldn't help frowning: "Is the fish king born again?"

This can be regarded as the repertoire of Taize Lake. Every few decades, a fish king is born.

In fact, decades ago, there was also a red-blooded carp king, but before Aaron heard the news, he was caught by the people in the martial arts. At that time, there was a bloody storm in Taize Mansion.

"According to the time, it is almost at this time... No matter what, I went to catch the fish king, so as to save so many people from running around and disturbing people's cleanliness..."

The Scarlet Blood Carp King also has some effect on the monks in the Qi refining period, and Aaron is now doing Qi refining to complete the Great Consummation, so in fact, he doesn't like it much.

Of course, I have to admit that it still tastes good, and if you take it to the market, you can sell a lot of spirit stones.

……

That night.

The moonlight hangs high.

Aaron disguised himself as a tall, thin middle-aged man with dark skin and a stern face. He drove an iron leaf boat across Taize Lake.

From time to time, a handful of high-grade baits on the 'Monster Lure Book' will be sprinkled down.

This bait has been refined by mana, and it is even more attractive to spirit fish!

Not long after, I saw scales gathering on the water surface, and countless schools of fish frantically chasing the iron leaf boat.

"Very good...'Luring Demon Spectrum' is indeed more effective than the Sea Remnant Technique, and has a wider range of attraction... If this goes on like this, the Scarlet Blood Carp King can be caught overnight!"

……

At this time, the lake faces another direction.

On the deck of a large ship, Huang Tianba, the leader of the "Tianxiong Gang" who ruled Taize Mansion for more than sixty years, was standing in front of a plain young man with a big smile on his face: "Young Master Qing... this time the King of Fish... Born, I will take care of it and give it to you."

"Mmm..." The 'Young Master Qing' responded in a neutral manner, and waved Huang Tianba to leave.

Huang Tianba bowed back and left the deck like an old dog.

"Help Master..."

Behind him, the left and right protectors were full of dissatisfaction.

"Shut up for me."

Huang Tianba reprimanded his subordinates sternly: "Now on this boat, the young master is bigger than the sky, do you understand?"

His subordinates don't know, but he, Chief Huang, knows that that 'Young Master Qing' is a cultivator of immortals!

Chapter 590

Huang Tianba comes from a martial arts family, and he also knows something about the theory of cultivating immortals.

Then he wandered around the rivers and lakes, leaving a great reputation, and was invited by his friend Taize Mansion Tianxiong Sect Leader to join the Tianxiong Sect. He killed countless powerful enemies with a pair of Tianba fists, and became the leader of the Sect Leader all the way from the Dharma Protector!

But as he approached old age, Huang Tianba became more and more terrified when he looked at his aging self.

He doesn't want to grow old, he doesn't want to die, he wants to cultivate immortality!

This time 'Young Master Qing' came to ask for help, he was actually ecstatic.

Even if you can't get immortal fate from this immortal cultivator, it's quite good to get a few magic talismans.

Therefore, this Huang Tianba Huang Gang leader not only entertained him attentively, but also served him tirelessly.

"Guild Master, Gang Master...Look!"

At this moment, an old fisherman pointed at the lake and screamed, "Fish, fish are moving!"

"What? What is going on?"

Huang Tianba's eyes widened.

"Isn't it... the feast of ten thousand fishes and the worship of the Dragon King?"

The old fisherman murmured.

"Whether it is or not, ten thousand fish gather, maybe the red-blooded carp king is also among them, chase after me!"

Huang Tianba ordered immediately.

Several hours later, the big ship came to a body of water.

In the waters, countless schools of fish competed to rush, almost filling the lake, which was a spectacle.

And in the center of the school of fish, there is a flat boat on which a middle-aged man in black is fishing a huge red-blooded carp king onto the boat!

"This friend... left behind the Scarlet Blood Carp King!"
