Cultivation of Immortals Starts from the Roots

Chapter 31 The Peak of Qi Practice
Xue Leng looked up, without saying anything, and walked towards the stairs.

As soon as he went upstairs, he bumped into a young girl in green clothes head-on.

The girl in green was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Xue Lenghan embarrassedly.

Immediately ran to the hall, whispered something to an old man without eyebrows, and pointed at Xue Leng.

After a while, the eyebrowless old man came out from behind the counter.

After being offered a cup of spiritual tea, he raised the storage bag in his hand and asked with a smile:

"I'm so old, I respectfully serve as the second steward of the Qiyaoxuan, I don't know why my little friend wants this rotting corpse poison?"

Xue Leng was unmoved, and gave the old man a faint look.

"When did the ghost medicine building have the rules for asking customers how to use the things they bought? Could it be that I went to the wrong place?"

After saying this, he was about to leave, but the browless old man's expression changed immediately, and he got up quickly to stop Xue Leng.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist misunderstood."

Seeing Xue Leng stopped, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and glanced at the storage bag in his hand in embarrassment.

"My Qiyaoxuan claims to sell no pills, no medicines, and all kinds of precious medicinal materials.

But the rotting corpse poison that fellow Taoists need is one of the deadly poisons that the ghost medicine building expressly prohibits private sale, so the old man was a little curious for a while. "

Xue Leng's face turned cold when he heard the words, how strict the rules of the Guiyao Building have to do with him, and said slightly unhappy:
"To sell or not to sell, Master Tianku said a word, I don't care about anything else."

The eyebrowless old man was not angry when he saw this, he tossed the storage bag in his hand, rubbed his fingers, and said in a roundabout way:

"Yes, there are, but the medicinal materials for making rotting corpse poison are extremely rare, and the old man took a lot of risks to get them. This..."

Seeing the extremely wretched and treacherous smile of the eyebrowless old man, Xue Leng suddenly felt nauseated, took out a mid-grade spirit stone and threw it over.

"Hurry up and take it out if you have one. I have other important things to do, so I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here."

The eyebrowless old man caught the Lingshi with quick eyes and hands, and after holding it tightly, his eyes rolled around, and he said happily:
"The rotting corpse poison is priced at [-] spirit stones, and I should return [-] to my friend. Wait a minute, let the old man look for it first."

After finishing speaking, he rummaged in his pocket solemnly and kept mumbling something.

"That's enough, that's enough, the rest of the spirit stones, it's time to invite Master to drink tea."

"In that case, thank you fellow daoist, hehe~"

Upon hearing this, the eyebrowless old man immediately pulled out his right hand from his bosom, and handed over a small white jade bottle with a smile on his face.

As soon as Xue Leng took the jade bottle, he immediately felt a cool and warm feeling in the palm of his hand.

After unplugging the cork, in an instant, a faint cold mist emerged, mixed with a little strange fragrance, and a faint aura lingered around the tip of the nose, which lasted for a long time.

Xue Leng sniffed lightly, and immediately felt an ecstasy of pleasure. Before he could savor it carefully, a stream of sticky black blood flowed out from his nostrils.

"Tsk~"

Sensing the rusty taste between his lips and teeth, Xue Leng suddenly came back to his senses, took a detoxification pill calmly, and then nodded slightly.

"That's right. It really is rotting corpse poison. It's just the lingering breath that's released, and it's so toxic. It's a pity there's only one bottle."

"Fellow Daoist, you are joking. This thing has always been under strict supervision, and the old man got it after going through all kinds of hardships."

Seeing that Xue Leng seemed to be very satisfied with the rotting corpse poison, the browless old man finally let go of his hanging heart, and made an aggrieved excuse.

"Master, you have worked hard. There will be such a good product next time. Remember to keep it for Han. The price is not a problem."

Xue Leng comforted him blandly, but he didn't believe the other party's nonsense at all.

But there is one thing to say, although this old thing is a bit greedy, but things are not bad.

The rotting corpse poison combined with Shanglei Yunfan's supernatural power of raining in a large area, under the pouring poisonous rain, it can be regarded as a big killer.

Even if it is a foundation-building monk, if he does not stop thinking about the Tao, he will probably suffer a lot.

With strong hopes, Xue Leng came out of Qiyaoxuan, and rushed towards Jianbao Pavilion non-stop.

After half a stick of incense, when he arrived at the night market, he was told that the middle-aged Confucian scholar left Xianyuan City early this morning after repairing Lei Yunfan yesterday.

For Xue Leng, this news is undoubtedly the best. After all, his cultivation base is shallow now. If he can not meet the high-ranking monks face to face, it is best to avoid it as much as possible.

After successfully retrieving Lei Yunfan from the young man in Confucian clothing, Xue Leng readily paid the other two thousand spirit stones.

In this way, with the two treasures of Lei Yunfan and Silver Talisman in his possession, he dare not stay in Xianyuan City.

After leaving the night market, he immediately tore up a quick-moving talisman, and ran towards the sky talisman flying boat without looking back.

Two days later, in a secluded courtyard in Tianxing Mountain.

Xue Leng sat cross-legged on the bed with a dignified face, ready to hit the bottleneck of the tenth level of Qi training again.

When the heart lake gradually calmed down and entered the state of forgetting both things and me, he slowly started the Mingshui Jue with a thought.

At the same time, he also swallowed the Qingyun Chongmai Pill and the True Blood Barrier Breaking Pill that had been prepared a long time ago.

"Guru~"

After counting.

Xue Leng's whole body was sizzling as if he had been roasted by fire, and countless sweats emitted bursts of steam under the terrifying high temperature.

The face that was originally pale was extremely red at this moment, and the whole person looked like an overcooked lobster.

Xue Leng closed his eyes tightly, resisting the hot and severe pain coming from his body, his mind gradually stabilized, and he continued to practice the exercises.

Under the stimulation of the medicinal power in the body, the originally spacious and tough meridians have been twisted like the dried twist.

The bottleneck that had imprisoned him for several months was already crumbling under the mixed impact of the two elixirs, as if it would be broken in the next second.

"effective!"

Seeing this, Xue Leng was overjoyed, and worked harder to start the Mingshui Jue.

The meridians were burned so distorted, and the great pain caused caused his body to twitch continuously indirectly.

The muscles all over his body were tense, and the blue veins like meat worms were constantly throbbing, and his hot and red face gradually became bloodless.

Finally, when the potency of the medicine began to decline significantly.

Among the riddled meridians, there was only a scarlet mana flowing slowly. Wherever it passed along the way, the dry and twisted meridians became full and swollen again, even more spacious than before.

Xue Leng's hanging heart was finally let go, and he ran the Mingshui Jue for two big cycles.

After confirming that there was no problem at all, he immediately stopped practicing, and couldn't wait to look at the panel in the sea of ​​consciousness.

【Name: Xue Leng】

[Spiritual Root: Blood Spiritual Root]

[Life span: 27/104 years old]

【Boundary: Ten Levels of Qi Training】

[Cultivation method: Mingshui Jue (Perfect); Hundred Ghosts Nourishing Soul Chapter (1)]

[Skill: Yin Deficiency Finger (Perfect)]

[Talent: Scarlet Pact (Blood Extraction 1)]

"I have finally made a breakthrough. Next, as long as I raise my cultivation level to the level of complete Qi training step by step, I can start building the foundation."

Muttering something to himself, Xue Leng took a few more Yunling Pills, and began to meditate and adjust his breath.

After recovering to his best condition, he suddenly got up and jumped off the bed.

After carefully rinsing off the dirt, he changed into new clothes, and immediately fell asleep on the bed.

The next morning, after waking up, I felt that my energy had been fully recovered, and I started the next round of cultivation in high spirits.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye while practicing.

It took Xue Leng nearly five months to completely stabilize his cultivation.

In the following month, he didn't relax, and after practicing the Yin deficiency finger that had been stagnant for a long time, he began to prepare for a breakthrough in Qi training and Dzogchen.

Now that the mana in his body was already surging, he did not continue to polish his foundation, but chose to break through directly.

Right now is the best time to advance. If you continue to suppress your cultivation, you will lose your original vigor.

Time flies, spring goes and autumn comes, and before you know it, another year has passed.

In the past year and a half, not many people were added to the entire Tianxing Mountain, but many disciples went down the mountain.

At this time, in a small courtyard that had been dusty for a long time, in a very simple quiet room, Xue Leng slowly opened his eyes.

With the opening of his eyelids, a powerful energy flowed silently from his body.

The movement of this breath is... the peak of Qi training!
"After retreating for more than a year, I finally raised my cultivation to the point where I can't advance."

"It's time to go out for a walk. If you stay here any longer, your whole body will be moldy. I don't know if the old man has returned, Master?"

Xue Leng, who was very still and thoughtful, tidied up his appearance a little, then walked out of the courtyard and rushed towards the Spirit Talisman Hall.

"Huh? Why are there so many people in Tianfu Temple today? Could it be that some good mission has been released?"

When passing Tianxing Peak, Xue Leng stopped suddenly, looked at the densely packed human heads in Tianfu Hall, and couldn't help thinking secretly.

With curiosity, Xue Leng also hurried in, and looked up at the qi training disciple task column.

After seeing the content described on the first line of the task bar, the originally cold expression on his face instantly became serious.

The content on the taskbar is -

【Valley of Sealing Demons】

[Start date: three months later]

[Task items: Heavenly Spirit Fruit, Purple Monkey Flower, Chalcedony Mushroom]

[Task reward: Foundation Establishment Pill (equal exchange, no upper limit)]

[Requirements for receiving the task: Late stage of Qi training]

"It seems that I have been too obsessed with cultivation recently, and I actually forgot about Fengmogu."

Xue Leng, who suddenly remembered this, patted himself on the forehead, and sighed a little annoyed.

When he first joined Tianfu Pavilion, Blood Feather True Monarch had already explained it, but at that time his cultivation base was too low, so he didn't take it seriously.

"As expected, there is still a way to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill in the sect, otherwise, where would ordinary disciples have a way out?"

"I don't know what Master wants me to find in the Valley of Sealing Demons..."

Xue Leng didn't take the Foundation Establishment Pill that was rewarded by the mission to heart. As long as he fulfilled the entrustment of Blood Feather True Monarch, he would not be short of pills, exercises or anything.

"However, natural resources and earthly treasures belong to the strong. If you can get them, the more the better."

Just as he was making wishful thinking in his heart, Xue Leng suddenly heard the discussion from the crowd beside him, and the expression on his smug face suddenly froze.

"Is the trial mission of this Demon Valley difficult? They actually get a Foundation Establishment Pill as a reward!"

"Could fellow daoist suffer from insanity? You don't even know about Sealing Demon Valley? It is said that the death rate of the number of people participating each time is more than [-]%. If you want to save your life, you can try it!"

"Ah? Such a high death rate? Then I have to think about it carefully. If I lose my life, I will have nothing. Why don't I save contribution points and exchange for Jidan?"

Hearing this, Xue Leng's brows were also furrowed immediately. It was obvious that the danger of Fengmogu far exceeded his expectations.

"No wonder an expensive item like Foundation Establishment Pill is used as a reward."

After pondering for a moment, he walked to the task management office and reported his name without hesitation.

"This magic valley is full of dangers. Apart from healing pills and defensive instruments, the most important things are maps and information."

"So, let's go to the Library Pavilion first..."

After thinking about it for a while, Xue Leng still decided to go to Zangshuge to get the information about Fengmogu in his hands first.

As for the magic weapon and the elixir, there are still three months to prepare, so you can take it easy a little bit, maybe True Monarch Blood Feather has already prepared these things?

"Brother Xue, are you reading again?"

At the door of Zangshu Pavilion, the horse-faced man guarding the door saw Xue Leng from a distance, and immediately reached out to say hello.

"That's right, Senior Brother Liu, what a coincidence, today you're the one in charge again."

"Well, come in quickly, Master Lu has been thinking about you all the time, haha~" the horse-faced man said with a smile on his face.

Xue Leng nodded slightly, and walked into the library pavilion. The horse-faced man said Uncle Lu just now, so he was naturally the fat-faced old man in charge of the pavilion.

After entering the door, he walked directly to the borrowing office, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a fat-faced old man sitting there drinking tea with his legs crossed, humming a little tune.

"Uncle Lu, you are still the most leisurely in this Book Collection Pavilion."

He looked up and saw Xue Leng coming, and the pair of tricks of the fat-faced old man with drooping eyelids instantly regained his energy.

With a sound of "boo", he pulled the spout of the teapot out, and said with a smile:

"You kid is here, hurry up, take out the things and let me have a taste."

"You old man is really impatient, here, it's all here."

Seeing the eager look of the fat-faced old man, Xue Leng chuckled, and hurriedly took out a bag of things from the storage bag and handed it over.

When the bag was half empty, it was snatched by the fat-faced old man, and then he put it up to his nose and sniffed it, his face suddenly showed a look of intoxication.

"It really is the best Drunken Spirit Tea in Xianyuan City, you have a heart."

Arching his nose fiercely, the fat-faced old man's wrinkled old face suddenly burst into a smile, and happily put the tea into the storage bag.

He picked up the teapot in his hand and took a sip before he asked slowly:
"What kind of classics do you want to read this time? The old man can recommend some good ones for you."

Seeing the leisurely manner of the fat-faced old man, Xue Leng shook his head unobtrusively, and immediately turned his face straight.

"Uncle, I want to participate in this trial in the Valley of Sealing Demons. I wonder if you have any relevant ancient books here?"

　Thank you for your recommendation tickets (Starting tomorrow, the daily minimum guarantee is 6000, and the [-]D will be updated daily after it is put on the shelves.)
