ah?The palace fighting system can also cultivate immortality

Chapter 130: It’s not the kind of dual cultivation you think (second update)

On the way back to the underground palace, Du Xinghe kept thinking about the Immortal Alliance Competition.

At that time, the chief deacon who was closest to Ming Zhi heard that she was resigning from the sect and came down the mountain. He looked at her sideways and said that she was originally the fourth disciple of Venerable Yuan Ming. No matter how useless she was, she could still secure a position among the three hundred. .

Three hundred people are considered recommended, so what if they are not recommended?

She dug deep into her original memories and found that no one had told her about the Immortal Alliance Competition.

She had no choice but to check the jade certificate herself.

The closer the date of the Immortal Alliance Competition was, the more monks were wailing nervously on the jade certificate.

[What is the experience of counterattack in the Fairy Alliance Competition? 】

[How powerful have you ever seen the most terrifying person who counterattacked before the Fairy Alliance Competition? 】

[Is there any example of a breakthrough 365 days before the competition? 】

[A must-read for monks in the Qi Refining Stage. After watching the Immortal Alliance Competition, 500 people will be recommended! 】

Seeing the fourth title, Du Xinghe clicked in out of curiosity.

As a result, the monk who spoke in the main building only left one cool line -

[During the Qi refining period, are you still thinking about the Immortal Alliance Competition? Go back to your sect and become an outer disciple to cultivate the spiritual fields! 】

There was a roar of abuse below.

The purpose of the Immortal Alliance Competition is to select the most outstanding young monks from each sect in Pingyun Continent, and the top 300 will be sent to the Torch Level Secret Realm to practice and hunt for treasures.

The secret realm is divided into Ying, Zhu, Ju, Shu, Hui, Xi and Xu levels.

Some people ask if there is a fourth-level secret realm in the future. What is so strange about the Torch level?

The knowledgeable people sneered: [That is the torch-level secret realm carefully selected by the Immortal Alliance to have the lowest risk and the richest treasure resources. Of course, not everyone can go there. 】

There are also rumors that the Immortal Alliance Competition is just a trial place prepared by the three major sects for their own children.

Ordinary small sects either find ways to attach themselves to the three major sects, or they wait to become sparring partners.

As for the so-called casual practitioners who can also participate, it is a big lie.

Since the Immortal Alliance Competition has been held, there has never been an example of a casual cultivator entering the top 300.

After returning to the underground palace, Du Xinghe went to ask Cang Hengzi for advice.

After hearing this, he laughed and said: "Then you are really asking blind questions. Like alchemists, we have our own alchemy conference, and we don't go to the Immortal Alliance Competition to join in the fun...unless we are just minor practitioners."

"There are also alchemists who hire strong men in the Alchemy Conference..."

"The Immortal Alliance Competition is different."

Cang Hengzi interrupted her gently: "You are talking about the Medicine King's territory! It is not easy to train alchemists and weapon refiners, and they cannot be damaged easily. Even if they say that alchemists must learn to compete with each other for medicinal material resources, it is not easy to train them. It means that no one is allowed to kill, and the elders of the Lihuo Sect are ready to come to the rescue. After so many times, almost no one has died. The Immortal Alliance Competition is different. Sometimes I suspect that the spiritual energy of this world is not enough, and the three major sects must By using the bait of opening the Torch-level secret realm, we let the small sects and casual cultivators die one after another, which not only frees up the world for their disciples to practice, but also serves as a whetstone for them."

Du Xinghe listened to what he said: "So, the difference between the Immortal League Competition and the Alchemy Competition is that people will die in the former, right?"

Cang Hengzi stopped, nodded and asked, "Isn't it enough?"

Weapon refiners, like alchemists, cherish their lives.

Either survive in a group, or find a mutually beneficial backer.

What Emperor Ying Cang provided to Cang Hengzi was such a protection.

"That suits me perfectly."

Du Xinghe smiled brightly.

Cang Hengzi choked and remained silent for a long time, but the sword spirit gloated and said, "Sword cultivators are like this, you should have gotten used to it a long time ago."

Thinking that she was young and energetic, Cang Hengzi shook his head.

Genius sword cultivators are like this. They only have others kneel down to beg for mercy. They rarely think about what they will be like if they lose to others. Only when they have the tip of the sword pressed against their throats do they know how to be afraid.

What he didn't know was that not only did Crossing the Galaxy never die.

She has died too many times.

After drinking tea in front of the Yama Hall, I have the open-mindedness and courage to face the sword countless times and strive for a lifetime from nine deaths.

"Having said that, I am not a fool's errand."

Du Xinghe muttered: "Before I go to the Immortal Alliance Competition, I must break through the golden elixir!"

"Yeah, come on."

Cang Hengzi continued to knock.

"Master doesn't seem to believe that I can break through the golden elixir." She was dissatisfied.

"A hundred years ago, there was someone here who said he wanted to survive the tribulation."

Cang Hengzi pointed in the direction of the main tomb.

Du Xinghe was at a loss for words, and then an idea came to him——

Isn’t this a ready-made senior? Although His Majesty is not a swordsman, he is a super senior after all. These days, when he meditates and practices with her every day and soaks in the spiritual energy he exudes, she has benefited a lot and laid a stronger foundation. .

She thought so and really went to see His Majesty.

"Guide you to break through the golden elixir..."

After hearing Du Xinghe's intention, Emperor Ying Cang frowned slightly.

Seeing the change in his expression, Du Xinghe felt a shock in his heart.

It shouldn’t be!

His Majesty is very generous and patient with the people in the underground palace, and never hides his secrets.

"I'm very happy that you can think of asking me for advice on cultivation matters, but the realm you mentioned is really..." He paused and said politely: "It's a bit too long ago. When I think about it now, it may not be what it was at that time. State of mind.”

"..."

Du Xinghe understands.

He couldn't remember the troubles of breaking through the golden elixir, the boss in the integration stage.

Du Xinghetian shamelessly suggested, "Why don't we try dual cultivation?"

The words were like thunder, which made Emperor Ying Cang blush. After a moment, he asked in a voice like a mosquito: "This, this... don't you mind?"

"You don't mind, what should I mind?"

Du Xinghe wondered.

Dual cultivation between monks with similar realms is mutual benefit and mutual progress. She is dual cultivating with His Majesty, so she takes advantage of him: "If Your Majesty is not willing, then I will not force Him!"

Emperor Ying Cang shook his head in embarrassment.

Although there are all kinds of people in the world of immortality, including sanctimonious moral defenders and unrestrained cultivators who put joy first, he himself is more traditional in his treatment of women. Although his family has died and he cannot live up to his parents' destiny, there should be some. According to the matchmaker, you have to hire a church to do this kind of thing...

In just one breath, Emperor Ying Cang imagined ten thousand words of content that would not pass the review.

"Of course I am willing."

he said solemnly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Du Xinghe was overjoyed and sat directly in his spacious coffin, adjusting to a back-to-back sitting position.

"Eh?" He was stunned.

This position was not included in the secret play chart that the imperial sister gave him mysteriously!

In panic, Emperor Ying Cang didn't care about his face and asked Cang Hengzi for help.

Cang Hengzi paused in the refining room, picked up a handful of water, cleaned his ears, and then explained to His Majesty in a leisurely manner - times have changed, and now dual cultivation does not only mean the ancient Hehuan Sect of your old man. , the mainstream nowadays is very pure, the kind that requires wearing clothes, so feel free to go for dual cultivation.

"His Majesty?"

Seeing that he had no luck, Du Xinghe pushed his shoulder.

But when he touched it, he found that he could feel the scalding heat emanating from it through his clothes, and he was immediately startled.

He is worthy of being called a master in the integration stage. He is already steaming before he even starts to perform his exercises!

"I'm fine, I'll be here."

Emperor Ying Cang came back to his senses, and he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had experienced a steam revolution.

I felt relieved, but also felt an indescribable regret.

I still have the urge to kill Cang Hengzi and silence him.

With mixed feelings, Emperor Ying Cang and Du Xinghe completed a small Zhoutian double cultivation.

The cock crows three times and the morning light appears.

Hearing the rooster crow, Emperor Ying Cang was still in a trance.

Shenshui said that it was almost boring to just farm without raising some chickens, so he asked him to get a nest of eggs and bring them back, so that the underground palace would also be full of life.

This night of his practice was no different from the countless nights before. He was stuck in the bottleneck with no intention of loosening.

Emperor Ying Cang has long been used to this. But unlike Du Xinghe's imagined vision of a light body and clear eyesight, after she finished the exercise, she covered her mouth and felt like vomiting: "No, the realm between you and me is too different, a little too much is not enough."

Practicing double cultivation with His Majesty is like sitting next to an ultra-high-power nuclear pollution source. If you take two more puffs, your Dantian will be deformed.

Emperor Ying Cang asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Crossing the Galaxy pondered and gave an extremely precise metaphor:

"If you take too big a step, you'll tear your balls."

"..."

His Majesty, who has received royal education since childhood, cannot accept such a straightforward rhetorical technique.

He was still hesitating, but Crossing the Galaxy had already gotten up.

When traveling in the world, I only believe in pragmatism. If something is good, use it. If you feel it is not good, put it down immediately.

Since his dual cultivation with His Majesty could not be improved, Du Xinghe put his mind elsewhere. Of course, she still bid farewell to His Majesty politely before leaving. The latter did not feel that he had been left behind at all. By the time he realized what was happening, he had not seen her in the underground palace for two days.

He went to ask Cang Hengzi, who was puzzled: "Isn't it normal for monks to come and go freely? She is also a sword cultivator."

Emperor Ying Cang couldn't hide his disappointment immediately.

In fact, Du Xinghe and Cang Hengzi have added Yudou as friends. Even if she doesn't check Yudou's messages frequently, it's not difficult to contact her.

Furthermore, he pointed out where Du Xinghe went after leaving the underground palace.

It's just that he didn't want to tell this old antique.

Let him go into seclusion and enlightenment on his own!
A slight smile appeared at the corner of Cang Hengzi's mouth, but before he could finish laughing, his sleeve was tugged.

He lowered his head, and the six little ones looked up at him eagerly:

"Brother, I'm hungry. I need some food."

Cang Hengzi: "..."

Crossing the galaxy, he is really... really...! ! ! !

"Okay, okay, everyone, sit down, now I'll do it for you."

He got up and imitated Rong Yu, heating the alchemy furnace with ground fire and adding water to cook.

……

Since the Immortal League Competition is a test of real swords and guns, regardless of combat methods, Du Xinghe thought about it and felt that the most important thing to improve in a short period of time is her "Gu God Art", which is Xiaopang's ability.

Poison is the most unexpected and hard to guard against.

This can be seen from the fear that Pingyun Continental monks have towards Gu cultivators.

Xiaopang can use all the poison she absorbs for her own use. What she has to do is to seek more poisonous monsters.

——Cang Hengzi told her:
"Going south in the desert, there is a place called Jiahu Village. The people of Jiahu Village live by the lake and survive on the fish, shrimp and aquatic plants in the freshwater lake. Only on rare occasions will they set foot in the desert to hunt with bows and arrows. beast."

"It is said that there is a millennium-old python that is extremely poisonous living in Jiahu. If you prepare some cattle, sheep and spiritual stones, the people of Jiahu Village will help you bring the python out."

Cang Hengzi also just heard about it.

But if the price is only some cattle and sheep spirit stones, Du Xinghe thinks it's worth a try.

Du Xinghe went to Shengyang Market first, found Gerile who was recovering from his injury, and asked him to take him to Jiahu Village.

Hearing that she wanted to go to Jiahu Village, he looked surprised: "There is nothing in that lake, and the people in the village are extremely poor, so what's the point to go there? If you don't want to go to the Immortal Crossing, I have no choice but to go!"

Du Xinghe knew that he was still afraid of death, so he paid for him a peace talisman and asked him to keep it:
"When you arrive at Jiahu Village, you can directly use the Peace Talisman to return to the city."

Gerile accepted the peace talisman, and his heart was like a fairy, and he acted with dignity.

Du Xinghe bought twelve cattle and sheep each in the market.

Sheep are easy to buy, but cattle are really not cheap here.

Du Xinghe was thinking that the spiritual rice she harvested in the underground palace could be sold for a large sum of money in the Monk's Square Market. She also knew how to make elixirs. As she found more ways to make money, her expenses would rise accordingly.

He was still thinking about how the immortal would take them away, when he saw that in the blink of an eye, the group of cattle and sheep shrank to no more than the size of a hand. Du Xinghe put them directly into Gerile's arms: "Take them with you and let's go."

After saying that, Xue Ming flew out, she stepped onto the sword and pulled him up too.

Under the guidance of Gerile, we also flew from dawn to dusk.

Night falls.

A sharp crescent moon hangs high in the sky, which is not the right time to visit others.

Looking down from the sky, it is really a big lake.

There is a large reed swamp on the lake, which creates golden waves in the breeze.

And Jiahu Village is actually built on a patch of reeds.

A small island floating on the lake was woven out of reed roots, and the hut on the island was also made of reed roots. This was very different from the water house on the lake imagined by Du Xinghe.

She wondered: "If the reed roots are soaked in the lake water all day long, won't they become soft and rotten?"

"So they have to dry the reeds every day and spread the newly dried reeds on top to prevent the island from sinking. Fortunately, the most indispensable thing here is sunshine, so it doesn't matter whether it dries or not!"

Gerile said with a smile.

This is unthinkable in areas with a southern climate.

There is no need to soak it, the island will naturally rot.

Looking at the past, there are seven small islands on the lake. The islands are not consistent, some are near or far away.

There are about six or seven huts built on each island, which seems to be its capacity limit.

Du Xinghe couldn't help but wonder, can the fish, shrimp and plants in this lake really provide food and drink for the residents of this large village?
Hearing Du Xianchang's doubts, Gerile said: "That's why I'm poor. If I don't have enough to eat, I'll eat less. If I lose weight, I can make room for my family. It's not unusual to live on the lake. No tourists have ever come here." Sightseeing! I would say that Du Xianchang bought too many livestock, which is too embarrassing for them. I heard that the palace of Xuan Dynasty was built on the clouds, which is worth seeing. It's a pity that I can only see it in my dreams. See you soon."

While they were talking, there were shouts and curses coming from below.

In front of two reed huts, a thin woman walked out from each side, akimbo, shouting:
"How many times have I told you not to get involved in my family's affairs!"

"What do you mean? It's not my brother who is in charge of your household? My mother is still your mother-in-law! I want you to speak politely to me!"

A man from the house came out to break up the fight.

The man was about the same height as the two women. He was skinny and short due to malnutrition and starvation since he was a child. He only tried to persuade her a few words before he was scolded by his mother-in-law: "I have been married to you since I married you. I am not responsible for everything in the house." , and gave you three children, and you took one away..."

Before she finished speaking, the man couldn't stand it anymore: "Since you can't live with it, then don't live together! We'll have quarrels every day, no end."

They are obviously two reed houses, how can they live together?
I saw a man holding an iron tool with a huge barb from the house and cutting it into the ground between the two reed houses. It seemed that the key point was opened and the island was divided into two.

As the wind blows, it gradually becomes farther away.

The two families, who originally lived next to each other and were close to each other, suddenly became independent islands across the lake.

The woman was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "My daughter is still at her house! Maomao! Come back and take care of your brother!"

Following her call, a dark, skinny, monkey-like girl walked out of her aunt's house, jumped into the lake without surprise, and swam home.

Upon hearing the separation, people in other houses also poked their heads out to watch the fun.

Without exception, the islanders in Jiahu Village are all very short and thin.

Du Xinghe took over the pocket cattle and sheep and asked Gerile to activate the peace charm and go back. He said he was not in a hurry: "I haven't been to Jiahu Village before. The people here are so thin! I can fight three of them by myself, so you should let me accompany you." Be a guard beside the Immortal."

"No need."

Crossing the Star River and smiling.

Seeing that the immortal leader really didn't need him, Gerile had no choice but to leave the scene.

Du Xinghe looked around and found that among the seven islands, the hut on Reed Island at the core was the most luxurious and largest, so he flew down with his sword and knocked on the door.

A plainly dressed woman came out with a baby in her arms.

"Hello, who is in charge of this village?"

Du Xinghe asked quietly.

She didn't need to explain her background. Just the magical technique that landed on the island out of thin air, and her outstanding appearance after cleansing and cutting off the marrow, already let the woman know that she had an extraordinary background and was not something that the villagers could afford to offend. He raised a warm smile and said, "You have found the right place. The head of Jiahu Village is none other than my old lady. Please come in."

The woman has heard that there are tourists and business travelers in the desert. They are very generous and often provide excessive compensation when looking for a place to stay.

She is not afraid of others coming to make fun of the village.

Because you can see the village to the end at a glance, the bandits will have to shake their heads and leave when they come.

The woman rubbed her hands: "You have also seen that we live on the grass and cannot live with too many people. But if there is really a shortage, my husband and I can sleep on the island opposite."

The residents of Jiahu Village have lived on reeds for a long time, so they naturally have some survival skills.

People lie flat on the reed island. If they don't walk much, even if it is overloaded, they will not sink easily. At worst, they will have to lie down for two nights.

She had to catch this wealth and wealth!
There have been no adults over 1.6 meters tall in Jiahu Village for a long time. It would be good for the traveler to give him some rice and fruit. If the child eats two more bites, he will hopefully grow taller.

"Only me."

Seeing the white-haired, hunchbacked old lady walking slowly to the living room on crutches, she directly explained the purpose of her visit: "I want to see the poisonous anemone in the lake, and I want you to summon it out." She took the twenty-four cows The sheep were placed on the coffee table: "This is my sincerity, I can change them back to their original size at any time."

Unexpectedly, when Du Xinghe finished speaking, the woman who was originally smiling changed her expression and stared at her with hostility.

The old lady's expression remained unchanged, she glanced at the fat cattle and sheep on the coffee table, and said hoarsely:
"can."
