Immortal Palace Longevity

Chu State, Yuanyang Sect.

Yuanyang Sect is one of the five major sects of immortal cultivation in Chu State. It is an absolutely neutral sect with strong strength, profound heritage and long-standing inheritance.

It has been eight thousand years since its founding. There have been Yuanying-stage cultivators in the sect for generations. It can be said to be a behemoth, attracting countless casual cultivators and families.

The sect is located on a branch of the Hengduan Mountains extending to Qingzhou, with hundreds of large and small sacred mountains.

The spiritual energy in the mountain is rich, and various rare herbs that are difficult for ordinary people to find are everywhere, and there are also various immortal birds and beasts.

Qingmu Peak is an ordinary mountain in Yuanyang Sect. Because there is only one first-level middle-grade spiritual vein in the mountain, most of the people living in it are outer disciples of Yuanyang Sect in the Qi Refining Stage.

There is an ordinary cave on the mountainside. The furnishings in the cave are extremely simple, with a table, a chair and an old stone bed.

Liu Yu sat cross-legged in the middle of the stone bed, his expression was calm and peaceful, with a faint green light on his face.

He slowly made a spell with his hands, his chest rose and fell, and he practiced the Wood Spirit Technique to absorb and refine the spiritual energy in the world.

Although the Five Elements Basic Spirit Technique is the most widely circulated common practice in the world of immortal cultivation, after countless cultivators' exploration and improvement, the practice is neutral and peaceful, and does not affect the practice of other practices after the foundation is established. It is indeed unique.

And the probability of going astray is much smaller than other practices, and there are many experiences of predecessors to learn from, so Liu Yu chose to practice the Wood Spirit Technique.

After a long time, Liu Yu exhaled a turbid air from his mouth and slowly finished the practice. He felt that his cultivation in Dantian was a little more advanced than before, and he was happy. At this time, his cultivation was not far from the fifth level of Qi Refining.

This is a world of immortal cultivators. Only those with spiritual roots can refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and embark on the path of immortality. They have all kinds of incredible magical powers and spells. It is not impossible for them to cultivate to a high level to prolong their life and move mountains and seas.

Mortals without spiritual roots cannot sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, let alone refine it. They are destined to turn into a handful of yellow soil after a hundred years and scatter in the unknown depths of darkness.

Most mortals have no contact with the world of immortal cultivation from birth to death. When they talk about it after dinner, they just treat it as a legend.

There are only a few people with spiritual roots in this world. Often only two or three people have spiritual roots among thousands of people. The possibility of mortal descendants having spiritual roots is extremely small, even less than one in ten thousand.

If one of the parents is a cultivator, the probability of the offspring having spiritual roots will be greatly increased. If both parents are cultivators, the probability can even reach one in ten.

Therefore, immortal cultivators rarely marry mortals. Even if they want to get married, the object is often a cultivator. Over time, large and small immortal cultivation families have been formed.

Spiritual roots can be divided into five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Most of the spiritual roots of immortals are a mixture of one or more of these five attributes.

Under normal circumstances, the fewer the attributes of the spiritual roots, the purer the spiritual roots, the easier it is to sense the corresponding spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the faster it absorbs and refines.

Mixed spiritual roots of four or five attributes are extremely slow in refining spiritual energy, and are also called mixed spiritual roots or pseudo spiritual roots, which belong to the worst category; the speed of cultivation of spiritual roots of three and two attributes has greatly improved compared with pseudo spiritual roots, so they are called "true spiritual roots".

Spiritual roots with a single attribute can easily sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and refine it, so the speed of cultivation is extremely fast. What is even more enviable is that there is no bottleneck in the cultivation until the Jindan stage, and they can often quickly cultivate to a high level, so they are called Tianlinggen, which means the pride of heaven.

In addition to the five elements of spiritual roots, there are also variant spiritual roots, such as ice, wind, thunder and other variant spiritual roots.

Although cultivators with different spiritual roots are slightly slower than those with natural spiritual roots, they are still much faster than those with dual spiritual roots. Especially after practicing the corresponding special attribute skills, the mana they cultivate is often more refined than that of other cultivators, so the power of their spells is more than half that of cultivators of the same level.

Liu Yu is lucky to have spiritual roots, and his luck is neither good nor bad. He is a "true spiritual root" cultivator with three spiritual roots of wood, fire and earth; but in the huge Yuanyang Sect, he can only be regarded as mediocre, and there are many people with better spiritual roots than him.

In his previous life, Liu Yu was Guo Jiaming, an ordinary office worker in his thirties on Shuilan Star, who usually liked all kinds of rare objects.

One day, when he was playing with an ancestral green jade pendant, the jade pendant suddenly shone with green light, and he lost consciousness in a burst of dazzling light.

After a period of darkness, he woke up as a six or seven-year-old beggar without parents. A foundation-building cultivator from Yuanyang Sect who went to the secular world to perform a mission found that he had spiritual roots and brought him back to the sect and sent him to Yuanyang Branch Courtyard for training.

Yuanyang Branch Courtyard is the place where the sect is responsible for teaching children who have just entered the immortal path. There will be teachers in the branch courtyard to teach children to read and write, as well as some basic common sense of the cultivation world.

When the meridians in the body of the disciples of the branch courtyard are basically grown at the age of twelve, they will be taught the basic cultivation techniques. If they reach the third level of Qi Refining at the age of sixteen, they can directly enter the outer sect. Those children who do not reach the third level of Qi Refining will be miserable. They will be demoted to menial jobs and serve Yuanyang Sect for life to repay the resources invested by the sect in them.

With Liu Yusan's spiritual roots, it is of course no problem for him to cultivate to the third level of Qi Refining in four years from the age of twelve to sixteen, and thus become an ordinary outer sect disciple of Yuanyang Sect.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye he had been in the outer sect for two years. His cultivation had also broken through to the fourth level, making him considered a young cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining.

Every time Liu Yu practices, he can sense that there is a green light spot located three inches inside between his eyebrows, quietly hanging above the Niwan Palace, like a green moon illuminating the Niwan Palace.

The light spot is oval in shape and the size of a sesame seed; the green light spot releases a faint light. Although this light is weak and small, it also resolutely dispels a small piece of darkness and brings a ray of light to this mysterious place where the soul lives.

The green light spot is located in the Niwan acupoint and does not move. No matter how he tries, there is no response.

The Niwan Palace is the residence of the soul, the brain in the brain, and the core of the core. Liu Yu dare not act rashly. If this acupoint is damaged, the soul will be damaged at the least, and it is not impossible to die directly. That would be too late to regret.

Liu Yu has a vague guess about the origin of the green light spot, perhaps it is related to the green jade pendant in his previous life.

He dared not mention the abnormality during his own cultivation to outsiders. It was related to his past and present lives and was his biggest secret. He would not tell even his closest relatives. This secret should be known only to him!

Every time the divine consciousness passed through the Niwan Palace with the operation of the technique, the divine consciousness could feel a hint of coolness in the green light. The coolness was as refreshing as a stream of spring water in the desert, and it seemed that even the mental energy consumed by the operation of the technique was reduced a lot.

As the divine consciousness passed through the emerald light spot, Liu Yu felt that there seemed to be a trace of connection with the emerald light spot. This trace of connection was vague and fragile, and it was really not noticeable without careful experience.

As the connection was generated, Liu Yu seemed to have some understanding, and he always wrapped the emerald light spot with his divine consciousness to strengthen this mysterious connection, hoping to solve its mystery as soon as possible.

After more than six years of repeated polishing of the divine consciousness, that point of connection became closer and closer, and he felt that some changes would happen today.

This was a strong premonition, without any reason, and it was similar to the rumored "sixth consciousness", which could sense the autumn wind before the cicada moved.

Liu Yu opened his eyes, his pupils were dark and deep beneath his eyelashes.
