Cultivation of immortality in the family

Chapter 149 Breaking through the stone

"Originally, my alchemy skills have been stuck in the first level of high level. Even if I tried all kinds of methods, I still couldn't advance to the second level.

After some guidance from Master Taiyan, my nephew made great progress in an instant. As long as he practices for a while, he should be almost there.

Moreover, he also gave me a book on alchemy that he had learned from elsewhere, so that I could study more on it, which would be of great benefit in improving my alchemy skills! "

No wonder Su Xian was smiling as soon as he came back. In addition to the matter of Fangshi that he had been thinking about, he also solved the alchemy technique that he had been worrying about for a while.

As long as he can control the success rate of the second-level low-grade elixir to about 50%, then he can start preparing to refine the foundation-building elixir.

Speaking of which, the difficulty of refining the improved Foundation Establishment Pill has become much simpler.

It's just that because it involves the inner elixir of monsters, through three chapters of agreement with the monster clan, its circulation in the market is strictly controlled within a certain range.

"That's right. If you hurry up and improve your alchemy skills, you will have the foundation-building pills your family needs in the future."

This news is also a great joy for Su Mu.

In a few more years, Su Hao will almost be able to reach the ninth level of Qi training.

According to Su Xian's progress, he should be able to catch up.

"Uncle Qi, don't worry. I will refine the Foundation Establishment Pill in no more than two years." Su Xian patted his chest and said with confidence.

"By the way, I just heard Jiaxiang mutter that you had fully activated the Mountain Guarding Formation some time ago. Could it be that you noticed something? Is this related to the annihilation of the Shangguan family?"

Although Su Xian had been busy opening up a market in Qingxuan Island some time ago, he had heard a little bit about this matter.

This tragedy of annihilation is one of the hottest topics. I heard that Qingxuan Sect specially dispatched three true disciples to investigate the matter some time ago.

Those who can be listed as the true successors of Qingxuan Sect are all those with advanced cultivation and excellent methods. It seems that Qingxuan Sect is indeed serious.

"We are only a few thousand miles away from Shangguan's family. The monks who dare to commit such a big case must be sophisticated and ruthless. We really have to be on guard!"

Su Mu thought about it and decided not to reveal to Su Xian that the ancestor of the Guo family had been near Huoxi Island.

If he guessed correctly, the true disciples of Qingxuan Sect would definitely come to Huoxi Island to ask about something.

By then, Su Mu must no longer be here.

The reception also fell on Su Xian. If Su Xianming knew about this but didn't take the initiative to explain it, the other party might find some clues.

Those true disciples are all human spirits, and they must have some detection methods with them. Unless Su Mu personally takes action, otherwise Su Xian and Su Jiaxiang are only in the early stage of foundation building and will not be able to compete.

At this juncture, it is better not to cause unnecessary problems.

"Indeed, the other party must be a very vicious person. In order to avoid suffering disaster, you should protect yourself first." After listening to this, Su Xian agreed.

"Now that you are back, I am just about to go back to Tongyou Island with Ziling, and I will leave all the family matters to you."

To be on the safe side, Su Mu decided to take Yan Ziling with him, even if it meant letting her act as a guard.

Since she has a Qingxun spiritual body, her cultivation speed is not much slower than Su Mu's four-line earth spiritual root qualification.

In two or three years, Yan Ziling should be able to find the bottleneck in the later stages of foundation building.

The spiritual body is different from the spiritual root, so there are still some bottlenecks in cultivation. It's just that the speed of cultivation is so fast that this flaw is covered up.

The bottleneck in the later stage of foundation building is different from the previous small fights. If the foundation is not perfect enough, it may take more time to grind it slowly.

Su Mu estimated that if Yan Ziling did not take the Foundation Establishment Pill, Yu Ze would be almost exhausted by the time she breaks through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

Although after experiencing Su Yan's disappearance, she had improved a lot in both her cultivation experience and her mental determination during the years she was wandering outside. However, because she practiced too quickly, she was not as good as Su Mu. Qi and Blood Martial Arts, the Dao foundation must not be harmonious and consistent. If you want to use this to break through the bottleneck in the later stages of foundation building, I'm afraid it's not enough.

This is also a rare opportunity. Maybe it will give her more exposure and help her break through the bottleneck.

Moreover, Yan Ziling carries nine red fire needles and eight dragon escape wooden stakes, two middle-grade spiritual weapons with one attack and one defense, and the strength he can exert cannot be underestimated.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything! You and Aunt Qi rarely go out for a long time, so we should walk around and see more. Don't be in such a hurry to go home."

Today's Huoxi Island is protected by a third-level formation, and Su Xian himself is also a low-level second-level formation master, so he can at least exert 70% to 80% of the power of the formation.

Apart from Qingxuan Island, among the entire Xingluo Islands, the protection capability here ranks second.

In this case, he had nothing to worry about.

……

"Mu Lang, do we really want to go back to Tongyou Island?"

The two of them stood on the second-level spirit boat together. Yan Ziling nestled in Su Mu's arms, looking at the sunset on the horizon, feeling a sense of peace in her heart.

Over the years, although Yan Ziling would occasionally bring some spiritual stones or elixirs back to Tongyou Island to honor her parents in the name of Su Mu, she had not gone back for more than twenty years in order to prevent the leakage of her spiritual body.

So, you can imagine Yan Ziling's excitement when she heard that Su Mu was going to take her back to Tongyou Island.

"You go with me to do something first. After it's done, we'll go there together."

Su Mu's sense of urgency in cultivating all the time was because they were facing the behemoth of the Guo family.

Su Mu felt vaguely that everything seemed to be coming to light. As long as the current matter is resolved, Huoxi Island should be able to remain stable for decades.

Fortunately, the Su family is on the right track.

"Well, wherever Mu Lang goes, I will follow him!"

Seeing the solemn look on her husband's face, Yan Ziling was still as considerate as before and had great trust in him.

Su Mu piloted the spirit boat, and after a long circle outside, he took advantage of the situation and turned into the sea channel to the South China Sea.

Based on the memories he collected from Guo Shilun, he slowly approached the cave where the Waidan was hidden.

However, even if he had memories, he still had to cross into the gray fog of the Land of Lei Ze, so it took him half a month to reach that sea area.

"Mu Lang, there may be a lot of dangers hidden in this gray mist. I found that most of the spiritual consciousness I emitted seemed to be blocked."

Seeing the two of them going two to three hundred miles deep into the gray fog, Yan Ziling still felt panicked for no reason, even with Su Mu by her side.

"It's okay, I'll take care of everything!" Su Mu comforted him softly.

After more than half a month of testing, he discovered a pattern, which was that the outer layer of gray mist seemed to have weaker binding power on people with higher cultivation levels.

In the early stages of foundation building, he once tested it. The power of his spiritual consciousness was almost bounced back by the gray fog, and the visibility was not as good as the naked eye.

At that time, he only went three or four miles deep and did not dare to go any further.

Now, he is already in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and due to his practice of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, the power of his consciousness at this time is almost equivalent to that of a perfect monk in the later stage of Foundation Establishment.

The gray mist in front of him could only bounce back by 20%. In other words, he could still penetrate a distance of about 150 feet in the gray mist.

"Does it mean that if I advance to the Jindan stage, all the gray fog in the outer layer can come and go freely?" In Su Mu's opinion, this land of Lei Ze must have a big secret, and even the real Jindan is incomparable. Greedy.

It's just that due to external circumstances, even Master Jindan didn't dare to pry into it. Otherwise, Qingxuan Sect would have been dispatched long ago, and they wouldn't have stayed until now.

Furthermore, the scope of Lei Ze Land is too vast, which may be the main reason why Qingxuan Sect is difficult to deal with.

There are two major archipelagos dedicated to Qingxuan Sect, which has countless cultivation resources, so there is no need to take this risk.

However, if the Su family also advances to become a Jindan force.

For the sake of family development, Huoxidao may turn its attention to this land of thunder and lightning.

As Su Mu's cultivation level became higher and higher, and his cultivation speed became faster and faster, it was inevitable that this issue would be put on the agenda.

In fact, this was one of the reasons why Su Mu suddenly had the motivation to take the initiative.

"However, since every sixty years, the gray mist will regularly shrink back two to three hundred miles, so the cultivation resources here are still too poor. If you want to find more and better things, I'm afraid you have to continue to go deep for three or four hundred miles. Only a hundred miles will do.

However, due to being blocked by the gray fog, the monsters in the sea are far more powerful than outside. In such a short period of half a month, I have already encountered several groups of sea beasts, and most of the leaders are still second-level and high-grade. "

If it weren't for the powerful power of Su Mu's spiritual consciousness, he would have been able to cleverly get around the group of sea beasts before encountering them.

If it were anyone else, it would be really difficult to travel just two to three hundred miles.

No wonder even Yan Ziling, a master in the middle stage of foundation building, was inevitably panicked.

In view of the many dangers here, Su Mu could only slow down his progress again for the sake of safety.

It took another half a month before he took Yan Ziling to dive to the bottom of the sea and saw the black mountain from a distance.

"It should be over there!"

After spending a whole month, Su Mu finally found the destination of his trip.

He took Yan Ziling to the top of the Black Mountain. From here to the back of the mountain, he saw a cave over there with faint glow, which should be the entrance.

Su Mu asked Yan Ziling to guard here, and casually set up several layers of restrictions to hide his whereabouts, and said: "You can help me look out here first. If you see any movement, remember not to show up, just use Use your nine red fire needles to intercept."

It is a pity that even if Su Mu handed over the "Plain Girl Acupuncture Technique" to Yan Ziling, the other party did not seem to have the talent to practice the Acupuncture Technique after studying it for so many years.

However, by observing the seven-feathered red-crowned crane, Yan Ziling learned a technique from it to launch flying needles. Even if it cannot be compared with the needle technique, the power is not bad.

"Mu Lang, you must be extremely careful!"

Looking at the darkness ahead, Yan Ziling didn't even dare to breathe.

At this point, even if Yan Ziling asked Su Mu not to take risks easily, the other party would definitely not obey, so he could only ask the other party to be more careful.

"If you are not sure, I will not take risks easily. But you should be more careful and remember not to step out of the restrictions I have set." Su Mu warned again and again.

Seeing Yan Ziling nodding her head, Su Mu turned around and walked along the path ahead.

After a while, he disappeared into the vast darkness.

Seeing her husband disappear, Yan Ziling took a few deep breaths and tried her best to calm down.

At this time, she looked to the side and found that her location was under a flying rock that stretched out.

She held the nine red fire needles in her hand and stared at the place where Su Mu left.

On the other side, Su Mu walked near the cave.

After just one glance, he realized that there were several restrictions placed on the entrance of the cave.

These several restrictions may seem very powerful, but in fact they are just a showpiece. With his current third-level low-level formation cultivation, he can break them with almost a backhand.

However, in order not to alert the snake, Su Mu did not touch the restriction, but took out an Earth Escape Talisman.

He stretched out his hand and pinched it, and a yellow spiritual light flashed through the magic talisman, covering his entire body.

Su Mu took a step forward, and his whole body actually passed through the stone.

Among the rocks, Su Mu felt as if he was walking on flat ground.

In a moment, he came to the depths of the cave.

A small sound of conversation came from not far away.

"Fourth Brother, if I didn't ask you to fixate on Zhenxun's two directions, why do you always deviate from the angle!"

"One more time, Fourth Brother, please concentrate on me. Xiaolian, remember that you are focusing on Gendui.

If you see me changing directions, you have to move with me. "

……

Su Mu listened for a while and realized that what the other three people were reciting was actually the innate Bagua acupuncture method.

Most practitioners need to understand the Five Elements and Bagua, so even if they are not proficient in formations, they can use their spiritual consciousness to set up some simple restrictions, such as soundproofing restrictions, or spirit sealing restrictions, etc.

Guo Xiangyun and the others did not find the Acupuncture Technique at Shangguan's house, so through negotiation, they gathered the strength of the three of them and used the innate Bagua position to jointly operate eight plain female needles in an attempt to break the restriction.

However, the cooperation between the three people seems to have been unable to be harmonious, and problems of one kind or another always arise.

"Is it possible that they haven't found a way to break the ban?"

Su Mu did not dare to get too close for fear of arousing Guo Xiangyun's alert.

"It's hard for you to think of the innate Bagua acupuncture method. However, if you want to cooperate with Wu Jian, I'm afraid it will take more than half a year for these three people."

The simpler the cooperation, the more calm it is.

The three people next to them have obviously tried it hundreds of times. Since they have not cooperated well, they are inevitably impatient and angry.

However, as they become more proficient, their tacit understanding of cooperation will gradually improve. According to Yisumu, it will take at least a few months.

"Should we take action suddenly at this time and catch them by surprise?"

At this moment, Su Mu seemed to have touched the edge of a strange restriction.

Compared with the restrictions placed casually by Guo Xiangyun, the restrictions that sealed the cave were obviously much more sophisticated, so Su Mu could not penetrate the stone.

"Hey, why don't I go in first and take a look at what's going on inside the cave? It's best to loot everything inside. When they break through the restrictions, I can launch a surprise attack and I'll definitely be able to catch them off guard!"

An idea suddenly sprouted in Su Mu's mind.
