As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

  Chapter 179 Evolving towards Genius

  chichi~

  Purple light mist circulated on Jiang Ming's body surface, like purple arcs, filled with a palpitating atmosphere of destruction...

   crackling...

  Vaguely, Jiang Ming seemed to hear his meridians and blood bones being broken and repaired continuously, and wisps of purple mist blended into it, and this process was repeated...

  It’s like seeing new life in the midst of destruction. Every time it breaks and repairs, Jiang Ming’s meridians seem to undergo a slight change, becoming more tenacious and transparent...as if they are undergoing constant washing and tempering...

  Wow~

  The turbulent spiritual power circulated in the meridians, and Jiang Ming felt an unusual change. The spiritual power was smoother than before, and the spiritual power seemed to fit better with his meridians.

  buzz~

  As the power of the purple crystal gradually merged into Jiang Ming's limbs and bones, his perception of his own changes became more and more clear.

   "My perception of the aura of heaven and earth seems to be a little sharper..." Jiang Ming muttered to himself.

  The journey of cultivating immortals, to put it simply, is to absorb the aura of heaven and earth into oneself, and constantly break through the limits and shackles...

  However, everyone's root and bone aptitude is different. Ninety-nine out of ten ordinary people can't even sense the aura of heaven and earth, let alone embark on the road of cultivating immortals...

  The stronger the aptitude, the more sensitive and friendly the perception of the aura of heaven and earth, and the fewer obstacles and bottlenecks encountered on the road of cultivation, so that they can reach a higher level.

   In the past, Jiang Ming's affinity for spiritual qi could only be said to be average. If he hadn't relied on various external resources such as spiritual stones, it would have been impossible to cultivate to the perfection of the ninth level of Qi training today.

   "Could it be that my aptitude has improved?" Jiang Ming was a little excited.

  Being a good-for-nothing for more than 200 years, I haven't found any way to improve the quality of my bones. Now I can see the light, how can I not be excited...

  He pondered for a moment, then casually pulled out a spiritual stone from the storage ring, which was covered with spots and impurities, and the spiritual power in it was extremely heterogeneous at first glance.

  The aura in this kind of spirit stone is extremely difficult to absorb and refine, and the price is also lower than ordinary spirit stones. Generally, only minor repairs in the early stage of Qi training will use it...

  Jiang Ming held the spirit stone in his hand, and with a movement of his mind, the Wuyuan Jue began to work, absorbing the spiritual energy from the spirit stone...

  Wow~

  In an instant, the spirit stone lost its luster, and a ray of spiritual energy entered Jiang Ming's body, and was quickly refined into his own spiritual power...

  Jiang Ming's eyes moved slightly: "If I were the old me, it would never be so easy to refine the mixed spiritual energy in this spirit stone..."

   "Sure enough, it is a treasure to improve aptitude!"

   "This thing is much more precious than the ten-thousand-year stone spirit blood... Although the amount is not much, if I take it all, I am afraid that it will also raise my aptitude to an unimaginable level."

  Jiang Ming was excited, and quickly took out another piece of purple crystal and swallowed it into his stomach.

  Boom...

  The purple mist filled the air, covering Jiang Ming's entire body...

  …

   Three days later.

  Jiang Ming finally finished refining the last piece of amethyst, and there was an involuntarily friendly temperament all over his body, and there seemed to be aura flowing in the flickering eyes.

   "I don't know if my aptitude for cultivating immortals is stronger or weaker than those core disciples in Dongtian Paradise..."

  Jiang Ming clenched his fist, feeling a little indescribably relaxed and joyful.

  Although it is said that he can live forever, the journey of cultivating immortality does not depend on time to become immortal. If the aptitude is not strong enough, it is not impossible to be stuck in a certain cultivation bottleneck forever...

   At the same time, the aura vortex in Jiang Ming's body also completely turned into a liquid state, which represented that his current spiritual power quality was comparable to that of monks in the middle or even late stage of foundation establishment.

   "Everything is ready, it's time for foundation building!"

  Jiang Ming's eyes are calm, he has done his best no matter his cultivation qualifications or spiritual power background, if all of this fails to build the foundation...

   "Then do it again!" Jiang Ming murmured, anyway, he was not afraid of any failures, so he was done.

   "Foundation building exercises... also selected!"

  Jiang Ming dug out a jade slip and browsed it carefully for the last time.

   Luo Yanyue's group of monks from the God's Eye Sect gave Jiang Ming several foundation-building exercises. He has been picking and choosing these days, and he has finally determined his goal.

   "The Burning Spirit Sutra, the fire-type cultivation technique..."

   This Burning Spirit Sutra is the most powerful of several exercises. The spiritual power cultivated has extremely strong destructive power, but the disadvantage is that it is extremely easy to cause backlash against the practitioners and burn the meridians...

  The strange thing about this exercise is that there is almost no upper limit of power. As long as the practitioner's meridians can withstand it, it can exert stronger power until the practitioner's entire body is burned to ashes...

"This Burning Spirit Sutra, I seem to have heard of it in Xiaoqian Mountain back then... It is one of the more common foundation-building exercises, most of them are casual cultivators with average aptitude, trying to use the violent energy of this Burning Soul Sutra to break through in one fell swoop Shackles, successful foundation building!"

   "There are also some monks who are slanting their swords, using this technique to fight the enemy desperately..."

   "Desperately, I am familiar with this trick!"

  Jiang Ming rubbed his chin, feeling more and more that the Burning Spirit Sutra fits him well.

  He also has a Xuanhuo Sacrificial Art, which can also be regarded as a fire attribute secret art. With the help of the two phases, it should be able to explode with stronger power...

   After reading the Burning Spirit Sutra for the last time, Jiang Ming also closed his eyes and calmed down until several hours passed before opening his eyes.

"let's start!"

  Jiang Ming began to cultivate according to the spiritual power operation route of the Burning Spirit Sutra. Gradually, the spiritual power in his body seemed to be filled with a trace of scorching and violent aura...

  In the dantian, the vortex of spiritual power is constantly rotating. Under the operation of the Burning Spirit Sutra, it seems to be being roasted by a raging fire, and it is also like being continuously beaten with hammers, slowly being compressed and condensed...

  It seems a simple process, but it has extremely high requirements on the foundation builders. If the spiritual power vortex is not solid enough, and the control of spiritual power is not perfect enough, it may directly destroy the spiritual power vortex, fail to build the foundation, and even drop the cultivation level...

  Now, Jiang Ming has no blemishes and has strong confidence in Foundation Establishment.

   "According to the description in the scriptures...according to this progress, it should be completed within one day!"

  Jiang Ming is not in a hurry. Establishing a foundation not only tests his cultivation, but also his mentality. At this time, you must not mess up your mentality...

  嗡~

  Just as Jiang Ming was immersed in the foundation building process, a ray of light suddenly flashed in his physical body, and the light rain contained bits and pieces of the Dao, quietly falling on Jiang Ming's spiritual power vortex...

  Boom~

  The vortex of spiritual power swelled suddenly, and the runes loomed in it, and the mysterious Dao Qi flowed in it, as if resisting the refining of the Burning Scripture, which slowed down Jiang Ming's progress several times...

   "This..." Jiang Ming was dumbfounded.

  He naturally recognized that this was the rain of light born from the catastrophe when he met one after another on the star road, pouring into his body...

  Jiang Ming knew that these avenue fragments were very precious, but he never expected that they would pop out at this time...

  Boom boom boom...

  The Burning Spirit Sutra worked hard, but the speed of condensing the spiritual power vortex suddenly became dozens of times slower than before.

   After several hours, Jiang Ming refined the spiritual power vortex to the size before the light rain fragments appeared...

  Wow~

  The second piece of light rain appeared in time, and Shi Shiran floated into the vortex of spiritual power.

  Boom...

  The hard work of several hours was for nothing...

   "These are benefits, benefits... I will bear it!"

  Jiang Ming gritted his teeth, tried his best to run the Burning Spirit Scripture, and continued to refine the fragments of the Dao.

  From day to night, the third piece of light rain, the fourth piece...

   After more than half a month, Jiang Ming finished refining the forty-first piece of light rain. His eyes were numb and he was a little confused. I have never heard of someone who spent half a month building a foundation...

  Now his spiritual power vortex is like a nebula, slowly rotating, containing endless auras and runes, and it seems to see countless rhymes at a glance.

  Jiang Ming continued to temper and polish the spiritual power vortex, and finally no fragments of the avenue continued to fall, but the spiritual power vortex was much tougher than before, which greatly slowed down his tempering speed.

   "Forty-one Heavenly Tribulation Battles, forty-one pieces of light and rain..."

  Jiang Ming thought, and then suddenly his heart moved.

  The star road old man is also considered to be the forty-second person. Although he did not leave any fragments of the avenue, he left him other things...

  He flicked his fingers, and suddenly there was a pile of things in front of him, which was a pile of seemingly ordinary firewood.

  The old man who was walking on the star road at that time gave Jiang Ming the Holy Body of Hundred Tribulations, while the old man in the farmhouse threw Jiang Ming a bundle of dry firewood, which seemed to be cut down from the mountain by himself...

   "The memory of cutting wood at that time is already blurred... I don't know where this firewood was cut from, but it must be something special to be gifted by that kind of existence..."

   "Can it be useful for my foundation building?"

  Jiang Ming moved his mind, allocated a bit of spiritual power, and tried to refine this bundle of dry firewood.

   Phew...

  However, what Jiang Ming didn't expect was that as soon as his spiritual power touched the dry firewood, the whole bundle of dry firewood suddenly disappeared from his eyes and appeared in his dantian instead.

  Boom...

  The dry firewood hanging under the spiritual vortex suddenly burst into flames at this moment, and the raging flames burst out immediately. The flames contained strands of chaotic mist, which quickly merged into the spiritual vortex...

  In the vortex of spiritual power, there is also a trace of mysterious smoke, filled with a primitive and simple atmosphere, vast and vast...

   "This..." Jiang Ming was also dumbfounded. Could this be the real usage of dry firewood?

   Still, I accidentally activated it in advance, and this dry firewood has a greater purpose...

   "It doesn't matter, it's all burned!"

  Jiang Ming sighed helplessly, his sudden whim made his speed of tempering the vortex of spiritual power even slower...

   "Good things take time, good food is not afraid to wait..." Jiang Ming could only comfort himself in this way, and continued to temper slowly.

  Time passed slowly, and it was two months since Jiang Ming first started building the foundation...

   "In this world, is there anyone who builds a foundation slower than me..."

Jiang Ming is speechless. He has encountered more than one or two black magic winds in the past two months. Fortunately, this vortex of spiritual power seems to have become extremely stable after being baptized by the fragments of the avenue and sacrificed by the mysterious dry wood. Slow, but never crashing...

   "Finally, it's the last moment!"

  In Jiang Ming’s body, the spiritual power vortex at the beginning has almost turned into a spiritual power light wheel, floating quietly, leaving only the most central place, with a little gleam flowing, undergoing the final transformation...

  This light wheel is the so-called spiritual base, the beginning of all the great ways, whether it is the golden elixir or the nascent soul, are all born from this...

  Now Jiang Ming's spirit base is filled with a faint crimson light, which is determined by the characteristics of the burning spirit scripture.

Generally speaking, after a normal monk builds a foundation, the fewer blemishes on the surface of the spiritual foundation, the higher the quality of the foundation... The most perfect foundation is as smooth as a mirror. Almost no one can go this far.

  Boom!

  The last gleam of light was refined, Jiang Ming's whole body was shaken, and the breath in his body suddenly rose sharply, breaking through the shackles of the Qi training period, and stepping into the early stage of foundation building.

   "Finally...it's done!" Jiang Ming was excited. After cultivating immortals for more than a hundred years, he finally stepped into a new world.

   "However, is my foundation building high or low quality..." Jiang Ming immediately looked at his spiritual foundation.

  On his spiritual foundation, a series of avenue runes are indefinite, outlining a mysterious and unknown light... like stars twinkling, adding a bit of color to the bare spiritual foundation.

  Under the spirit foundation, strands of chaotic mist swirled around, and there seemed to be thousands of gods in the circulation, as if everything in the world was contained in it...

   "It seems that my foundation building is a little different from ordinary people... I heard that the refining Dao fragments can help people practice enlightenment and improve my talent..."

   "And that chaotic mist, I don't know what use it is..."

  However, Jiang Ming had a vague premonition that this chaotic mist might be unusual. The place where the old man was staying was not an ordinary farmhouse, but the deepest spiritual world...

  The firewood cut from that kind of place, and the chaotic mist produced by burning, could it be a mortal thing?

   "I can only wait and find out slowly in the future!"

  Jiang Ming shook his head. In short, he cannot tell outsiders about the situation of his spirit base...

   "The purpose of this trip has been accomplished, and my cultivation base has also increased a lot...you can leave at any time!"

  Jiang Ming talked to himself, but then remembered the old silver coin that chased and killed him, and wondered if there was someone waiting outside.

   "It's full of calculations. It's only been more than a month since I entered the Black Wind Demon Abyss. For a cultivator, it's just a blink of an eye. It's not safe to go out now... Let's wait for a while to consolidate my cultivation!"

  Jiang Ming didn't panic at all, and started to run the Burning Spirit Sutra on the spot. There was a faint light on the spirit foundation, and the surging spiritual power gushed out like a tide, flowing among the limbs and bones, which was much stronger than the Qi training period...

As he began to practice the exercises, Jiang Ming was also a little surprised to find that his comprehension of the Burning Spirit Sutra was rapidly deepening. If it was said that he only practiced step by step before, now he has been able to understand some of the secrets of the exercises. The Dharma is running more and more smoothly in the body...

   "Is this the transformation of talent?" Jiang Ming looked inside the spirit foundation, and the fragments of the avenue flickered on it, which seemed to have brought him unknown mysterious changes.

  Jiang Ming was intoxicated by it, and practiced tirelessly. He finally realized that cultivation may not be boring, but the cultivation of useless wood is boring.

  Just like the math problems in the previous life, it is always interesting for the masters to solve them, but the useless ones can only cry for their parents...

  On the fifth day of practice, Jiang Ming's eyes suddenly moved.

   Now that he has advanced to build a foundation, Jiang Ming's spiritual perception is far better than before. It seems that he has sensed some fluctuations on the surface that do not belong to the Black Wind Demon Abyss...

  Boom...

  A breath of spiritual power burst out, and quickly attacked Jiang Ming's location.

   "Fuck... I hid so deep, can I find it?"

  Jiang Ming's face changed slightly, and thoughts flashed in his mind. The other party's cultivation was within the scope of foundation establishment. He must not be able to go so deep with his cultivation alone. He must have borrowed some treasure.

   "As expected of the Three Great Caves..."

  Everything happened between lightning and flint. At the same time that Jiang Ming's thoughts flashed, the speed was not slow at all. He rushed out of the underground cracks, and rushed deeper into the Black Wind Demon Abyss without looking back...

   "I don't believe it, your treasure can be used without restrictions..."
