Longevity begins with the sword of ignorance

Chapter 205 Promotion to the middle stage of foundation establishment and the method of returning to the sect
"Boom!!!"

Seeing the spiritual energy in a radius of tens of miles, as if sucked by a whale, gathering towards the top of the cloudy mountain, even though he had seen it many times, Xiang Ling still sighed a little.

"This kind of power is not inferior to the Jindan of the lower third rank. To achieve this level in the foundation establishment stage, it is worthy of being my lord."

After she finished speaking, she thought of something, and she spoke to her sister next to her.

"Lingque, since my lord is willing to accept you as an apprentice, this is your blessing. You must take good care of it and don't let your lord live up to your expectations."

"You don't need to tell me, I will naturally practice hard... It's a pity, whether it's the map of the real shape of the five internal organs or the map of the Eight Diagrams, I can't get started."

Speaking of the latter, Lingque was a little depressed.

She knew that the source of Zhong Cang's strength lay in these two exercises.

Lingque wanted to learn about this, and Zhong Cang was also willing to teach.

However, not everyone can practice these two exercises.

Not to mention that Zhong Cang quickly cultivated to a master of the 4th realm, it was difficult for her to even get started.

Compared with Lingque's unhappy face, Xiangling's mind is calm.

"Cultivation is difficult. Master Husband's cultivation talent, even in the Dapai, is rare in a thousand years... You don't have to compare with Master Husband, as long as you make progress..."

……

The sisters Xiangling and Lingque were talking to each other.

As for Zhong Cang sitting on the top of the peak, it was at the most critical time.

Resonating for several hours, with the help of the innate aura attached to the magic weapon, his practice has come to the door of the middle stage of foundation establishment, and he has felt the barrier from the early to middle stage of foundation establishment.

"Break it for me!"

"Buzz!"

In one go, Zhong Cang directly used the majestic spiritual energy to bombard the barrier in the middle stage of foundation establishment. This step... was very easy.

This is a very normal situation. First of all, after acquiring the characteristics of the five qi in the chest and accumulating the five internal organs god, the aura in Zhong Cang's body is already extremely abundant, more than ten times that of ordinary people.

Such a majestic spiritual energy will naturally be easier to break through.

Not to mention, Zhong Cang's current physique is no longer the average of the third level.

After building the foundation of Qi Jue in a hundred days, Zhong Cang's talent has been transformed, and he is now a first-grade spiritual root.

This level of talent, because it is extremely compatible with the spiritual energy, in addition to its high efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy, the barrier when breaking through is also very weak.

With a little force, Zhong Cang pierced through this membrane and entered the middle stage of foundation establishment.

"Boom!"

At the moment of advancing, Zhong Cang's first feeling was that he had broken the boundaries that bound him.

This is manifested in Zhong Cang's body, which is his overflowing dantian, where the upper limit of spiritual energy stored in it has increased.

"Suck……"

The dantian expanded, and the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth was sucked into the abdomen by Zhong Cang.

Due to the gathering of the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Formation, the concentration of spiritual energy around Zhong Cang has always been very strong. Now that he absorbed it for a while, a huge amount of spiritual energy was refined into his abdomen, and Zhong Cang's cultivation base also rose with the tide.

After the dantian is profitable, it is the internal organs. Like the dantian, its upper limit has also been expanded.

This change, in addition to making Zhong Cang's five internal organs more magnificent and powerful, the enhancement of the five internal organs also led to the growth of Zhong Cang's physical fitness.

"Om..."

The body and mana grew together, and behind Zhong Cang, the looming figure of the giant spirit also became more and more solid.

……

Compared with the advancement of the cultivation method, the advancement of the cultivation base does not have too many abnormal phenomena, and there are no special characteristics, but the mana and physical body are enhanced.

However, for monks, the transformation of mana and physical body is fundamental.

After all, no matter how magical and powerful a spell is, it needs plenty of mana to cast it.

If the magic power is enough, with one power down ten times, low-level spells can also produce super-level effects.

Therefore, this advancement greatly improved Zhong Cang's strength.

……

"breathe……"

After advancing, Zhong Cang breathed on the top of the mountain for more than half an hour.

And during this inhalation, the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth was continuously inhaled by Zhong Cang into his abdomen, and melted into his body under the refinement of the five viscera gods.

However, due to his deep foundation and this advancement, the upper limit of Zhong Cang's capacity has been expanded by nearly ten times, which is extremely difficult to fill.

What troubled him even more was that the concentration of aura in the wilderness was far from being comparable to that of Yunxiaozong. Even if he had the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Formation, which could gather aura with a radius of about [-] meters, the aura was still not enough.

Just like now, after half an hour of practice, Zhong Cang sucked up all the spiritual energy in a radius of tens of thousands of miles.

Although the aura flows down from high places like water, it will take at least three days to fill this area.

He couldn't wait for such a long time.

This situation also made Zhong Cang understand one thing:
"If I practice in the wilderness, it will take me at least ten years to fill myself with aura and touch the bottleneck in the later stage of foundation establishment."

Thinking of this, Zhong Cang became more eager to return to the Cloud Sect.

If you are in the Yunxiao Sect, not only the concentration of aura there is more than ten times that of the current one, but also the vast resources are more than half open to yourself. With the accumulation of those resources, Zhong Cang is confident that within a year, he can cultivate In order to promote to the consummation of the middle stage of foundation establishment.

If he is lucky enough to be rewarded by the sect and given a rare item equivalent to a semi-innate magic weapon, Zhong Cang even has the confidence to improve his cultivation within a few months.

And there is one more thing that makes Zhong Cang have to return.

"The way of heaven is to make up for what is lacking while damaging what is sufficient; the way of man is to make up for what is lacking in damage."

"The human body is deficient. If we don't add foreign substances to the mana, the chances of all the foundation-building golden elixirs to advance will be less than one percent. Moreover, even if they are lucky enough to advance, they will only be lower third-rank golden elixirs."

"So, all the foundation establishments need to absorb the evil spirits from the heavens and the earth in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and let them blend with the body. In the later stage of foundation establishment, they need to absorb the evil spirits of the gangsters and fuse them with mana."

"This kind of absorption and fusion, in addition to making the body and mana qualitatively change, is also a means of complementing oneself."

"And this kind of situation of using the spirit of heaven and earth to complement oneself also corresponds to that sentence - the way of heaven is to make up for what is lacking when it is damaged; the way of man is to make up for what is not enough when it is damaged!"

……

Concentrating the gang and practicing the evil spirit is something that all foundation building must go through.

However, not all evil spirits can be absorbed by practitioners.

According to different exercises, the energy of evil spirits that a group of practitioners can absorb is also different.

For example, the flame spirit butterfly with fire attribute can only absorb the evil spirit of fire attribute, at most, it can absorb wood attribute because of the principle of mutual generation of the five elements.

Because Zhong Cang has all the five elements, he can absorb all five evil spirits.

Logically speaking, having so many choices is a good thing for Zhong Cang.

But things are not that simple... If the world does not fall into a state of decline, the evil spirit will be continuously born from the world.

However, even if the heaven and earth will give birth to the evil spirit, compared to the number of cultivators, the evil spirit is still not enough.

In particular, whether it is the qi of the heavenly gang or the qi of the earth, there is a division of quality and grade.

And for tens of thousands of years, with the establishment and expansion of the big sect of cultivation, many top-grade gangsha and top-rank gangsha have been monopolized by the big sect.

In the outside world, it is very difficult to find Gangsha Qi. If you find it, it is only a low-grade one.

Not wanting to make do with Ning Gang and practicing evil spirits, Zhong Cang could only return to the sect.

But Gangsha's condensedness is related to his upper limit in the future, how dare he make do with it.

Of course, he can also rely on luck.

For example, this time, he obtained five and a half innate magic weapons in the secret realm of Wutai Mountain. If he finds the secret realm again, he has a chance to obtain the top grade Gangsha.

However, this kind of luck is similar to winning the jackpot, so he dare not gamble.

On the contrary, when returning to the sect, Zhong Cang's chance of obtaining the top grade Gangsha is more than [-]%, and the top grade Gangsha is even [-]%.

Therefore, there is almost no need to think about what choice Zhong Cang will make.

By the way, in Yunxiao Sect, there is a division between true disciples and ordinary inner sects, and the shortage of top-grade and extreme-grade Gangsha Qi is one of them.

One of the reasons why Shangfeng fought so fiercely with the center forward was because of his evil spirit.

"The sect must go back, and the sooner I go back, the better for me!"

……

After making a decision, Zhong Cang practiced for ten days in the wilderness, stabilized his cultivation, and then took his two daughters and walked towards a coastal market.

Hmm... It's walking, but it's actually flying.

And what's different from just Yufeng before is that with the mirage dragon ball, Zhong Cang's mirage dragon has the ability to swallow clouds and fog.

"call……"

The dragon's mouth opened wide, and the mist surged, and soon a white cloud with an area of ​​one mu appeared around Zhong Cang and the others, and then, driven by the wind, the cloud flew towards the sea at extreme speed.

And during the flight, the outside of the white cloud did not change, but the inside was changed by the energy of illusion, forming a luxurious cave.

Lying in the cave, Zhong Cang said with emotion while receiving Xiangling's massage:

"This illusion is really convenient."

"It's just a pity, I haven't arrived at Jindan yet, so I don't dare to make too much fanfare, otherwise, turning the mist and clouds into dragon boats, and calling thousands of beauties to sing and dance to help, that would be enjoyment."

……

The speeding of the mist cloud does not require Zhong Cang's intervention. The mirage dragon with Zhong Cang's spirituality has accomplished this very well, so he only needs to enjoy it.

This kind of flight lasted for thirteen days. There was no way it could be done. The sky was so vast.

Finally, thirteen days later, Zhong Cang and the others arrived at their destination - Tianhaixian City!
Looking at the super big city entrenched by the sea like a giant beast, both Xiangling and Lingque felt a little afraid.

Especially the former, said timidly: "My lord, are we really going to come here?"

Zhong Cang knew the reason for her fear.

Unlike Tianyun Fairy City, which is inland, Tianhai Fairy City is considered a sacred place in the hearts of casual cultivators.

Because it is close to the sea and borders the Dragon Palace, a superpower in the sea, in order not to cause conflicts, several big factions in Yunmeng Tianyu did not send monks to station here blatantly.

It's just that, being bordered by sea forces, there is a lot of trade here, and the profits are endless.

With huge profits and no constraints from big factions, gradually, this place became a gathering place for casual cultivators.

When there are casual cultivators, relying on the profits of this place, they become Nascent Souls, and even monks who transform into gods, this place becomes a holy place for casual cultivators.

Every year, unbearable to be oppressed by the big faction, there are not many casual cultivators who come here to search for treasures.

And some people really went to sea and made a fortune, which made more and more people come.

Of course, if this is the case, Xiangling and Lingque will only yearn for it, not fear it.

The reason for their fear is that while this place is prosperous, it is also very... chaotic.

It is true that many of the big sects of cultivation are hypocrites and hypocrites, but at least the big sects of Taoism still pay attention to face.

Because of this, in the area ruled by the big faction in the inland, although everyone is oppressed, at least they can maintain the superficial peace. In some fairy cities, there are even disciples of the big faction stationed there. This is not only to collect taxes, but also to maintain order.

But Tianhaixian City is different. It is difficult to manage casual cultivators, and it is extremely difficult to manage many casual cultivators gathered together.

There are vendettas here every day. Although the gangs gathered by casual cultivators do not fight every day, it is normal for them to fight several times a year for the sake of territory and profit.

The low-level casual cultivators who live here have even seen the scene of the king's flag changing on the street.

There are many opportunities, but they are also extremely chaotic. This is the impression that everyone has about this place.

And there really are Jindan and Yuanying stationed here.

The Jindan melee came once every few years. Xiang Ling naturally didn't want to enter such a chaotic and dangerous city.

If it wasn't for returning to Yunxiao Sect as soon as possible, Zhong Cang wouldn't want to either.

He didn't have the ability to compete with Jindan and Yuanying, so naturally he didn't want to meet them.

Zhong Cang still understands the truth that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall.

However, due to the shortage of resources and the need to practice evil spirits, Zhong Cang had to come here.

Of course, he came here not to find opportunities in Tianhaixian City, but to find... people.

"As a big faction, it also has allies with several surrounding Taoist sects. The tentacles (spies) of Yunxiaozong will definitely not only exist in Beiyuan state."

"As a continent on the verge of Beiyuan State, there are definitely people from Yunxiaozong in Yunmeng Tianyu. Even if it's just to find out about the situation here, Yunxiaozong will send a few spies over here."

This is just like in the previous life, when the lighthouse country, as a superpower, would send a large number of spies into each country, this is the routine operation of Dapai.

If the spies were found and contacted with Yunxiaozong, Zhong Cang would feel relaxed if he wanted to go home.

According to the information he understood, the establishment of the foundation of the way of heaven is also highly valued in the big school. In order to take Zhong Cang back, it is possible to send a Nascent Soul.

... This is not to let Yuanying escort him all the time, but to take Zhong Cang back to Yunxiaozong, and at the speed of Master Yuanying, it will not take much time.

……

Since arriving in Yunmeng Tianyu, Zhong Cang has been trying to return to the sect.

In the end, Zhong Cang found that compared to planning how to go back by himself, contacting the sect and letting the sect send someone to pick it up was the easiest way.

However, the only thing that makes him uncomfortable is that in the sect, he is only a small qi practitioner, and has no contact with the sect's intelligence department at all.

Moreover, this is the foreign domain, and Zhong Cang has no chance to contact the information of the foreign domain.

In the end, after thinking about it with Tianxin, Zhong Cang felt that, as an intelligence department, they had to collect information without exposing themselves. In this case, Tianhaixian City, where good and bad people are mixed, is the most convenient place.

Numerous casual cultivators come and go, so there is a lot of information here, and there are no restrictions on big factions, so the chances of them being discovered are very low, and even if they are discovered, those big factions can't do anything, after all, this place is not under the control of big factions.

In this case, Yunxiaozong's intelligence headquarters in Yunmeng Tianyu may be established here.

And this is also the reason why Zhong Cang came here.

"But how do you find it?"

Looking at the big city entrenched by the sea like a giant beast, and feeling the number of casual practitioners in the city at least a million, Zhong Cang's scalp tingled for a while.

It is really not an easy task to find a person in such a huge city who is good at hiding.

In the end, Zhong Cang opened Tianxin again, using Tianxin's thinking to speed up and think.

In this state, he really found a way to break the game, and there were two.

"Sihai Pavilion... There is also Sihai Pavilion here. As a super store, Sihai Pavilion not only sells goods, but also sells information. It is even possible for the spies of Yunxiaozong to buy information here and spend money to ask them. There is a certain chance that they will contact here. The Cloud Firmament Sect spy."

"Also, even if you can't get in touch with the Yunxiao Sect here, as a big force that spans the state, there must be a way to send messages across domains in the Sihai Pavilion... I can even let the Sihai Pavilion contact the Yunxiao Sect, and then let the Sihai Pavilion contact the Yunxiao Sect. The elders of Yunxiao Sect came to pick me up."

This method is very good, but the other is a bit bold.

"It's a big deal. If I can make a big news in Tianhaixian City and report my identity as a disciple of Yunxiao Sect, the spies in this city and even the surrounding areas will know about me and send people to investigate. two."

"At that time, it would be easy for me to contact someone from the Cloud Sect."

Thinking of this, Zhong Cang's eyes lit up, and a decision was made in his heart, he:
"Both!"

　PS: I have been thinking about the plot for the past two days, and there are few updates. Sorry, I will resume two updates tomorrow.
