Longevity, starting from raising chickens

"It looks like it will take some time before Dahai City is completely closed."

In the city.

Wang Ba and the others raised their heads slightly and looked at the huge "trumpet mouth" above with solemn expressions.

The void appeared to be distorted, and blurring had already begun to appear at the edge of the speaker.

At the mouth of the trumpet, there were monks wandering around with nervous expressions. From time to time, some of them rushed in and flew out.

Not only Wang Ba, but people also came out of many shops in the market from time to time, looking at the changes at the entrance of Dahai City in surprise.

Many of them had participated in the opening and closing of Dahai City many times, but had never seen a situation like this.

Only the leaders of a very small number of forces looked uneasy.

Some of them who were well-informed or had extraordinary vision had already vaguely realized that earth-shaking changes were taking place in Dahai City.

Perhaps it will most likely go to extinction.

This may not be a big problem for the Three Realms, it is just a matter of eating more or less.

But for the countless small forces in the Sea of ​​Chaos that rely on Dahai City for intermittent resources, it is simply terrible news.

"This Sea of ​​Chaos is a cage, and the various forces are the prisoners. Dahai City is like the few foods delivered from the outside. Everyone relies on it for survival. Now that the food from outside is gone... I'm afraid that this Sea of ​​Chaos will be in chaos."

Yu Wuhen glanced at the panic-stricken monks around him, shook his head slightly, and sighed softly.

She is not a compassionate person, and is even more cold.

But after witnessing the beginning of the chaos in the Sea of ​​Chaos with my own eyes, I still couldn't help but sigh.

Even though the Sea of ​​Chaos was turbulent before, it at least remained harmonious on the surface. But now, with the collapse of Dahai City, this last surface harmony will no longer exist.

In the event of losing external resources, anyone with a discerning eye will surely realize that what will follow will be an endless scramble for resources and fighting between forces until one force becomes dominant or multiple forces of similar strength emerge, ultimately maintaining a fragile yet delicate balance.

This balance is not necessarily peace, but it is just a last resort in the final game.

The change of one party's power may be just a tiny speck of dust in the sea of ​​chaos, but when it falls on an individual's head, it is still an insurmountable mountain...

Wang Ba also sighed softly upon hearing this, and said quietly:
"This is the torrent of worldly affairs. Unless one has extraordinary abilities, one will eventually sink into it and be unable to extricate oneself... just like the Kogura world of the past."

The former Xiaocang Realm was also troubled by the depletion of resources. Almost all living beings in the entire realm experienced a devastating catastrophe, and in the end, only one in a hundred survived.

Until he chose another path, he finally had a chance of survival.

However, with this glimmer of hope, I have been walking on thin ice. I am worried day and night, and I don’t know when I can feel at ease.

It was originally thought that the Sea of ​​Chaos would be the pure land and home of the Ogura Realm, but as the city of Dahai was heading towards its demise, this thought eventually became a luxury.

But fortunately, this chaos has nothing to do with the Kokura world after all.

"But this sea of ​​chaos is not a place to stay for long after all."

He was silent for a while, then whispered slowly.

The sound was only loud enough for a few people around to hear.

"Then Mountain Master, what should we do now?"

The Ghost King couldn't help but ask.

Wang Ba pondered for a while and said:

"Take this opportunity to quickly collect Chaos Essence, various classics, spiritual beasts, Dao treasures... and take out all the other supplies we brought with us, and exchange them for the resources you need, even if they are a little expensive."

The corpse-cooking ghost king hesitated and whispered:
"If low-level spiritual herbs and materials were released, it would probably expose the existence of the Xiaocang Realm..."

Wang Hao shook his head slightly:

"If it's exposed, then it's exposed... Wait, you're right. It's better to be cautious and not take out things that are easy to expose."

The strength he demonstrated in Dahai City was almost all related to the special environment of Dahai City.

Now that there are no active rules to borrow from, the effectiveness of the Wind-Repelling Staff will be reduced by at least half.

It's almost like returning to its original form.

Therefore, he was not dazzled by the previous temporary illusion.

Pondering again.

Made some quick deployments.

Right now, there are still many people who are unaware that Dahai City is about to be destroyed. Taking advantage of this window of opportunity, they still have a chance to make a fortune. It would be best if they could get the massive amount of Chaos Source that Xiaocang Realm needs in one go. Once this time point has passed, if they want to get a large amount of Chaos Source at once, they will have to break through the three realms.

This is almost impossible for Ogura Kai and himself at the current stage.

Under Wang Ba's arrangement.

The Ghost King and his companions immediately returned to the market town and went to the shop belonging to the "Original Demon Mountain" and began to exchange the supplies they had for the resources that were lacking in the Xiaocang Realm.

At the same time, Wang Ba also took advantage of this time to rent a secret room for practicing in the market town.

After confirming the secrecy.

He was still worried, so he set up the formation again, and then released the white-headed horse-bodied strange beast from his sleeve.

The white-headed horse-like beast glanced at the slightly crowded secret room, and its body quickly shrank to the size of a foal as it wished.

Wang Ba nodded with satisfaction, then pondered:

"You look somewhat similar to a mythical beast I know as 'Lu Shu', so why not call you... 'Fugui'!"

The strange beast with a white head and a horse body looked up blankly, staring at him blankly with its two big brown eyes.

"If you don't object, that means you approve. That's good."

Wang Ba was even more satisfied.

Then he took out the Immortal Treasure Bowl and placed it in front of it.

Fugui subconsciously lowered his head and stuck out his tongue to lick it.

Wang Ba raised his hand and gently stopped him.

He shook his head slightly and said:
"Why do you look like a dog? This is not a dog bowl."

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and the scene of Fugui spitting out five-colored lights from his mouth in Dahai City suddenly appeared in the secret room.

Pointing out:
"That's it, that's it..."

Fugui nodded blankly, as if he understood something, then he opened his mouth, and various rules of power surged, forming a gray ball of light.

Five elements, yin and yang, wind, thunder, ice, and magnetism...

Even though he had seen it before, he couldn't help but look complicated when he saw Fugui easily retrieve these rules from his body again.

If he didn't have the Wind-Resisting Staff and the special environment in Dahai City, he would never be able to become as rich as he is.

If what Li Zhongping and others said was true, Fugui was now in the so-called wonderful sense realm, and it was not even an ordinary wonderful sense realm.

At least when he was in the Immortal Palace before, the rules used by Taoist Master Ying Yuan were always the same.

Although Taoist Master Ying Yuan is not necessarily weaker than Fugui, this also shows the peculiarity of Fugui.

As he sighed, the ball of light in Fugui's mouth silently wrapped around the outer surface of the Xianyun Treasure Basin.

Wang Ba did not delay. He felt a slight tingling sensation in his soul, but he still activated the Wind-Repelling Staff and then controlled the gray ball of light, separating the rules from it like peeling silk from a cocoon. He used the Wind-Repelling Staff as a needle and these rules as thread to thread the needle and connect it to the crack of the Immortal Treasure Basin.

According to 'Chen Xuan', that is, Man Daoren's clone, the Immortal Treasure Basin itself is the manifestation of the rules.

Therefore, using rules to patch rules is the key to repairing the Immortal Treasure Basin, rather than a means of refining equipment.

It sounds simple, but the rules of the Immortal Treasure Basin are extremely complicated. When Wang Ba's mind sank into it, he felt that the crack in the Immortal Treasure Basin was like a piece of silk splitting in the middle, and he had to sort out the warp and weft threads, as well as the weaving techniques in the crack, and then restore them one by one.

Although it is not a lot, it is still extremely difficult even if Wang Ba has greatly improved his understanding of the rules in the Sea of ​​Chaos.

"But as long as it's possible to accomplish, it doesn't matter."

Wang Ba felt calm and started trying.

Try, fail, try, fail…

Fugui vomited again and again, and his body shrank visibly.

It seems that rules are like a part of its body.

Although Wang Ba felt a little reluctant, he could not give up at this time.

And with repeated attempts, although he kept failing, his understanding of the rules of the Immortal Treasure Basin became more and more thorough.

Finally, a small part of the crack on the surface of the Immortal Treasure Basin silently condensed.

"Success!"

Wang Ba felt a little bit of joy in his heart.

With this successful experience, the successful repair of the entire Immortal Treasure Basin will be a natural outcome.

After half a day.

Wang Ba held the immortal treasure bowl in his hand, looking at its smooth surface which had returned to its original state, his eyes filled with unspeakable relief.

The last goal of coming to Dahai City this time was finally successfully completed.

After taking a look at Fugui, who looked so skinny that his bones were just visible, even his aura seemed to have dropped a lot.

Wang Ba felt a little apologetic and fed Fugui some food, but Fugui just sniffed it and turned his head away.

"Don't eat spiritual food?"

Wang Ba couldn't help but be stunned. After thinking about it, he took out some other spiritual objects from his body. However, Fugui didn't seem to be interested in any of them.

Even though he was obviously hungry, he showed no intention of eating.

Wang Ba frowned, but couldn't think of a better way. Seeing Fugui looking weak and powerless, he felt a little reluctant, so he had to put it away and deal with it later.

Glancing at the Xianyun treasure basin, after such a long period of nurturing, the sixth-grade sea pearl in the basin has reached the limit of its current grade, and is only a step away from becoming a seventh-grade sea pearl.

Wang Ba pondered for a moment, his heart moved slightly, and he suddenly summoned the Dao Realm and suddenly slapped the Immortal Treasure Basin.

next moment.

The Immortal Treasure Basin remained motionless, but the sixth-level sea pearl inside it trembled slightly, and then a barely perceptible light appeared on the surface.

This change seems very small, but in Wang Ba's eyes, this sixth-level sea pearl has silently undergone a transformation like a rebirth!

"Seventh-level sea pearl!"

His attack was only the finishing touch. What was important was not him, but the fact that the sea pearl in the Immortal Treasure Basin had already been nurtured to the extreme. It was only because the Immortal Treasure Basin was damaged that it could not complete the transformation.

Now that the Immortal Treasure Basin has been repaired, the transformation of the sea pearl is a natural outcome.

Without hesitation, he reached out from the Xianyun treasure basin, took out the seventh-level sea pearl, and looked at it in his hand for a while.

Judging from the appearance alone, there doesn't seem to be much difference between the seventh and sixth levels, but the amount of realm origin contained in them is far beyond the reach of the sixth level sea pearl.

"Level 7...it's time." Wang Ba let out a long breath.

His eyes narrowed slightly, he gently grasped the sea pearl, and began to try to use this seventh-level sea pearl to find a way to merge him and Yuanci Taoist.

After just a few breaths.

A faint blue light bloomed in the sea pearl, and soon, lines of small characters and patterns slowly emerged one by one like flowing water...

"So that's it..."

Wang Ba stared at the contents of the sea pearl, then closed his eyes and carefully recalled the key points of this fusion method bit by bit.

"The Way of Primordial Magnetics does not exist independently, but is the sum of the relationships between Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the heavens, the earth, and all things... Therefore, it exists in all things and transcends all forms."

“So, when fusing Xuan Huang with Yuan Ci, it is not like fusing with the Ice Dao, where you have to cut off all emotions and nature. Instead, you need to keep the center and embrace oneness, allowing sadness and joy to arise and disappear naturally, without obsessions in your heart. You don’t need to go through the trouble like when fusing with the Ice Dao, just a thought will do.”

It sounds simple, but if there was no method of fusion to point it out, he might not be able to figure it out even after spending thousands of years.

Thinking of this, he once again went over the fusion method that emerged from the sea pearl in his mind bit by bit. After confirming that there was no problem, a figure walked out of his body.

He was wearing a black scale robe, with a hint of mystery. After landing, he raised his hand and bowed gently to Wang Ba:
"I've met Taoist friends."

Wang Ba also returned the greeting, and then said with a complicated expression:
"I think you know now, fellow Daoist."

Yuanci Daoren nodded calmly:

"The Tao gave birth to one, one gave birth to two, two gave birth to three. You and I were originally one. Now it is just a matter of where we came from and where we are going back to."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba bowed solemnly again.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

After saying that, the two of them started to practice the fusion method at the same time.

The figure of Yuanci Taoist gradually became invisible.

Then it turned into a stream of light and fell into Wang Ba's body.

But the next moment, the stream of light suddenly flew out again and condensed into Yuanci Taoist's somewhat stunned look.

"What happened? Why did it fail?"

Wang Ba was a little surprised, but then he thought of something and couldn't help but look at Yuanci Taoist, frowning and saying:
"Do you still have any unresolved issues?"

Taoist Yuanci was slightly startled, and a beautiful figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

The two were originally one, and Wang Ba immediately sensed Yuanci Taoist's thoughts. He could not help but frown again, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"I have also calculated her true spirit, but you should know that there is no true spirit or reincarnation of her in the Xiaocang Realm. I am afraid that she has unfortunately perished during the great catastrophe. You..."

"I know."

Yuanci Taoist shook his head slightly, a hint of sadness flashed across his face:
"It's not that I still have worldly thoughts. It's just that she chose to bear the calamity of the fusion of realms for me that day, and she herself died and reincarnated. After all, I received her kindness. Now... it is indeed difficult for me to let it go."

"I am a burden to you, fellow Taoist."

Wang Ba was silent for a while and sighed softly.

If the obsession is not eliminated, natural fusion will not be possible.

But he couldn't blame the other party. The Yuanci Taoist was a part of his character, and the Yuanci Tao was the Tao that existed between all things. It was also the easiest to connect with the surroundings and be influenced by the Tao. It was not surprising that the Yuanci Taoist had difficulty getting through this hurdle.

The only problem right now is that the person has been dead for many years and there is no trace of his true spirit.

In order to eliminate the obsession of Yuanci Daoren, he could not think of a better way except for that person to regenerate.

"But even her true spirit is gone, how can we find her?"

Thinking of this, Wang Ba couldn't help but feel a headache.

He had no choice but to put away the Yuanci Taoist and wait until he returned to Xiaocang Realm.

Looking around, there was nothing to do for a moment.

"Oh, and there are those two elixirs."

Wang Ba suddenly thought of something, and with an idea in his mind, he took out two pills.

These two pills, one black and one green, are filled with the charm of Taoism and rules.

The black one was obtained by Wang Ba himself.

The jasper-colored one, however, was thrown to him by the Lord of the Vajra Realm.

"Although this elixir looks far inferior to the one that Taoist Man had, it is obviously not an ordinary item... But, what is its use?"

Wang Ba carefully held the black one and looked at it carefully, but still couldn't see it clearly.

I just felt that there was a bit of water aura in the overflowing rules, but it was not completely consistent.

Naturally, he didn't dare to swallow it easily.

The Dao of Alchemy is broad and is not inferior to any other way of spiritual practice. The effects of it are also varied and difficult to describe.

It is hard to tell what the effect is, and if you take it rashly, it may not be a good thing.

It is even possible that there are some hidden tricks by the immortals.

He was not a child, and he always felt that the things left behind by his ancestors must have been left with good intentions.

"But what's the meaning of Immortal Lord Lu He leaving these four pills behind?"

"Since he foresaw that four people would come into the room, and that there were no more or less people, and he left four pills on purpose, he should have foreseen that Taoist Man would fight for them..."

“No, not really. I also know a little bit about divination. Even in the Xiaocang Realm, I can deduce the future, but I can’t know everything in detail. I’m afraid that even the realm spirit Cang Fuzi can’t do this… There may be omniscient and omnipotent people, but Immortal Lord Luhe should not have reached this level, otherwise he would not have fallen…”

"So, is there a possibility... that he actually doesn't know whether the person who came is good or bad, a successor or a destroyer?"

"If you say so..."

Wang Ba's eyes suddenly lit up:
"If I were him, I would still leave behind such a treasure without knowing the identity and purpose of the person who came after me. This can only mean that whoever obtains the elixir is not important to the immortal... Either the elixir is not important, or he is sure that as long as he gets the elixir, the result will be the same no matter who gets it."

"so……"

A conclusion that surprised him suddenly popped up in his mind:
"This elixir is probably some kind of trap!"

According to his past experience, there was an 80% chance that this trap was some kind of possession trap.

There is a 15% chance that he can control the cultivators through elixirs and ultimately achieve the goal that Immortal Lord Luhe wanted to achieve during his lifetime.

There is only a half-shot possibility that it is an elixir that can really benefit cultivators.

All in all, Wang Ba not only did not covet the two pills in front of him, but was full of caution at this moment.

After thinking about it, he put it away.

Then he looked at his other gains worth mentioning in Dahai City.

"Three supreme innate Dao treasures."

A guqin, a sword sheath and a brush.

The name of the ancient guqin is Guhong, and it has thirty-two innate cloud bans.

The scabbard and the writing brush are both nameless, and also have thirty-three and thirty-two cloud prohibitions respectively.

The three Taoist treasures were all obtained from the Immortal Palace. It seemed that most of them were things used by the immortals in the past.

Maybe it is a very ordinary object for immortals, but to him, it is an unimaginable treasure.

"These three things are probably the biggest gains of this trip besides various resources."

Wang Ba looked at the Taoist treasure in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

After taking a look around, he finally chose the scabbard to refine.

His soul is almost at its limit of carrying the weight of one Wind-Resisting Staff, and now he can only refine one more at most, and most likely they cannot be used at the same time.

Therefore, you can only choose the most powerful one among these three Taoist treasures.

Previously, Taoist Master Ying Yuan was able to temporarily entangle Taoist Man, who was in the Tribulation Crossing Realm, with the help of this treasure. Although Taoist Man was unable to fully exert his strength at that time, it also showed the power of the scabbard.

With his level of cultivation, he was able to refine the first three cloud bans very quickly, but the ones after that would not be refined in a short period of time.

"Calculated, the time should be about the same."

Wang Ba estimated the time and put away his Taoist treasure.

Although they stayed here in order to maximize the opportunity of this great change in the Sea of ​​Chaos, they could not stay too long after all. After all, he had obtained a lot of treasures this time, and there would always be people who were short-sighted.

A fight is a small matter, but if the secrets are revealed, it will be a big trouble.

Right now he doesn't want to get involved in the mess in the Sea of ​​Chaos too early.

Out of the secret room for practice.

Look up.

Compared to before his retreat, the "horn" in the sky became increasingly blurred and distorted, and had already shown signs of being mostly collapsed.

My heart sank slightly.

"We need to get out of here."

However, as soon as he returned to the Kokura realm's base in the market town, he received a report from Fujima Demon King.

It is said that leaders of many forces wanted to see him.

"Li Zhongping from the Jade Pot Realm wants to see you. He wants to thank you for saving me before..."

"Here in the Double Realm, Master Lu Fu is here to see you too..."

"There is also Yan Zhi from the Adult Country who came to confess his crime, and Wanbaofang's..."

"These outsiders probably heard that you, the mountain master, displayed your strength in the Wonderful Sense Realm in Dahai City, so they came here to gather information or to win you over."

Fujima Demon King guessed.

Wang Ba naturally understood what these people were thinking and shook his head slightly:
"Just say I'm still in seclusion and won't see any visitors."

"Yes."

Fujima Ghost King said hurriedly.

But just as he was about to leave, Wang Ba suddenly thought of something and said:
"Wait, you just said that Yan Zhi from the Adult Country came to confess his crime?"

Fujima Demon King nodded in confusion:
"Yes, he said that one of his disciples offended you, so he came to you to apologize."

"Let him in."

Wang Ba spoke casually.

The low-level spiritual herbs and materials brought from the warehouse finally have a place to sell. (End of this chapter)
