Seeking Immortality

As Xu Qingfan slowly took back the "life energy" and "death energy" into his dantian, the spiritual light emitted by the two spiritual energies gradually disappeared as the spiritual energy converged, and Xu Qingfan finally slowly opened his eyes.

Because the pain of running the "Life and Death Art" to transform his body was too intense, Xu Qingfan's eyes were full of bloodshot at this time, and the blood flowing out of Xu Qingfan's seven orifices made his image even more terrifying.

After opening his eyes, Xu Qingfan didn't care about the image of a great master of Xiuxian or Jindan period at all, and instantly fell limp on the bed, and then lay there gasping for breath.

In the past two years, the continuous use of "Life and Death Art" to transform the body has caused pain far beyond Xu Qingfan's imagination. More than once, Xu Qingfan felt that he was about to collapse, both physically and spiritually, but thinking of the chaos and catastrophe that was coming to the Xiuxian world, and the disciples and Jiuhua behind him, who had already felt powerless in several battles because of their lack of strength, Xu Qingfan gritted his teeth and persisted.

I don't know how many times he was close to collapse, and how many times he gritted his teeth and persisted. In the end, even Xu Qingfan himself didn't expect that he could persist for two whole years under such terrible pain.

It seems that Xu Qingfan himself didn't realize that under his indifferent character, there was still a kind of resilience and persistence that was different from ordinary people.

But even so, when everything was over, Xu Qingfan still felt that his body and consciousness were numb under the torment of pain, without the slightest perception. Under the exhaustion of mind and body, it was like a mortal who had traveled thousands of miles. He panted with his tongue sticking out.

After a long time, Xu Qingfan's body finally recovered some consciousness, and Xu Qingfan no longer hesitated. He reluctantly sat cross-legged again, took out a bottle of "Blood Spirit Pill" and some spiritual pills for stabilizing consciousness from his sleeves, poured out some, and then swallowed them immediately, and then meditated again.

Although "Life and Death Secret" can reshape the body, the reshaped body still needs Xu Qingfan to use the "Life Spirit Qi" and "Blood Spirit Pill" to repeatedly nourish it. Only then can the function be restored and fatigue be eliminated, otherwise the whole body will be numb like Xu Qingfan just now. In the end, it will slowly lose vitality.

Moreover, after two years of painful torture, Xu Qingfan's consciousness is also close to collapse, no less than being hit several times by the "God-killing Technique" performed by "Zhang"'s men, and it also needs immediate treatment.

This is why Xu Qingfan is so eager to meditate again.

This meditation took Xu Qingfan a full three months, but when Xu Qingfan opened his eyes again. The bloodshot in his eyes has disappeared, but there are flashes of brilliance, and the fatigue and paleness on his face have been replaced by redness and luster.

After two years of painful transformation, apart from other things, Xu Qingfan's "living spirit" and "dead spirit" in his body have become stronger and stronger, and he can use them more freely. After the destruction of his consciousness, it has become stronger and more resilient after recovery. Xu Qingfan's state at this time is only a hair's breadth away from the middle stage of the solid dan.

Just these. Xu Qingfan felt that his two years of hard work and suffering were worth it.

After feeling that the spiritual energy and consciousness in his body had recovered, Xu Qingfan closed his eyes again. Only then did he have time to feel the changes in his body and qualifications.

After some exploration and testing of his body, Xu Qingfan showed satisfaction and disappointment on his face. The changes in his body after two years of hard work made Xu Qingfan satisfied. But also made Xu Qingfan a little disappointed.

Although "Life and Death Secret" can change the qualifications of cultivating immortals, the effect is worse than Liu Huaxiang's secret method. In the past two years, Xu Qingfan has used "Life and Death Secret" eight times in a row to transform and reshape his body. The first time, Xu Qingfan could only intercept 30% of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and turned it into nearly 50%, which made Xu Qingfan very happy. He felt that in this way, he might be able to intercept the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to 90% or even more in a few years. ^^

But the scene afterwards made Xu Qingfan a little disappointed. The effect of using "Life and Death Secret" to transform and reshape the body was getting worse and worse. By the eighth time, the effect was almost negligible. After the eighth time, Xu Qingfan could intercept less than 70% of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Xu Qingfan estimated that the use of "Life and Death Art" could make his qualifications reach the level of Feng Qingtian, Jin Qinghan Ting'er, but because the effect has been decreasing, it would probably take decades to reach that level.

But the catastrophe is about to come, and what Xu Qingfan lacks most now is time, so after the eighth time, he found that the effect was negligible, Xu Qingfan made a decisive decision to stop using "Life and Death Art" to transform his body and qualifications. Although this is important, Xu Qingfan has more to do in this retreat.

Feeling the 67% of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that was intercepted after being absorbed into the body, Xu Qingfan sighed slightly. Although he was regretful, he was not dissatisfied.

You know, Xu Qingfan was unable to intercept the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at first, but now he has intercepted 67% of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which has barely reached the standard of the so-called "genius" in the world of cultivation. Of course, this kind of genius is only relative, and it is still a little worse than Feng Qingtian, Jin Qinghan and Ting'er, but it is much better than the original situation. At least in the future, the accumulation of spiritual energy will be twice as fast.

More importantly, after these eight times of continuous transformation of "Life and Death Art", "Life Spirit" and "Death Spirit" destroyed and reshaped Xu Qingfan's body countless times. In addition to giving Xu Qingfan greater confidence in the next perfection of "Life and Death Art" and making his body much tougher and more energetic than before, there are also unexpected gains.

That is, the compatibility of "Life Spirit" and "Death Spirit" with Xu Qingfan's body has greatly increased.

Before, because the nature of "Life Spirit" and "Death Spirit" is very different, every time Xu Qingfan runs these two spiritual energies at the same time, he has to be extremely cautious, otherwise once the two spiritual energies meet, they will conflict with each other without Xu Qingfan's control, and under the conflict, Xu Qingfan's body may collapse instantly.

But in the past two years, under the transformation of "Life and Death Secret", "Life Spirit" and "Dead Spirit" not only reshaped Xu Qingfan's body, but also conflicted every moment, which allowed Xu Qingfan to sum up a set of coping methods, and because the two spiritual energies were more compatible with Xu Qingfan's body, the damage caused to Xu Qingfan by the conflict between the two sides was far less than before.

As a result, Xu Qingfan had another goal of this retreat, improving his first magical power "Desolate Wind".

Before, when Xu Qingfan had not yet cultivated "Life Spirit", according to the principle of wood and fire generating wind, he integrated "Wood Yi Spirit" and "Phoenix Spirit", and added the powerful "Desolate Spirit" to practice his first magical power - "Desolate Wind".

However, as the "Mu Yi Spiritual Qi" absorbed the Holy Spirit breath of the "Holy Spirit Stone" and slowly turned into "Life Spirit Qi", due to the conflict between "Life Spirit Qi" and "Dead Spirit Qi", this magical power became increasingly difficult to perform, and once performed, it was extremely dangerous.

But the current situation is different, because the means to deal with the two conflicts have been summarized, and the two spiritual energies have greatly increased the compatibility of his body, the damage caused by the conflict is also greatly reduced, and the various damages suffered by Xu Qingfan when he turned into wind are further reduced. In this way, if the "Life Spirit Qi", "Phoenix Spirit Qi" and "Dead Spirit Qi" are combined, the damage suffered will be within the acceptable range of Xu Qingfan.

Because although the "Life Spirit Qi" absorbs the Holy Spirit breath in the "Holy Spirit Stone", it is still of wood attribute in essence. When combined with the "Phoenix Spirit Qi", it can still be transformed into wind, and compared with the ordinary wind-based Taoism, this kind of wind is more spiritual and has a holy breath.

Originally, Xu Qingfan's method of transforming the "Desolate Wind" was to remove the "dead air" inside, and only combine the "living air" with the "Phoenix spirit" to transform it into the "Holy Spirit Wind".

But in this way, except for some evil monks who practice special Taoism, the attack power of the "Holy Spirit Wind" is far less than the previous "Desolate Wind", and Xu Qingfan can't do anything about it.

But now when the "living air" and the "dead air" conflict, the damage caused to Xu Qingfan is greatly reduced, and Xu Qingfan has another idea.

Usually, the "Holy Spirit Wind" is still used, but when the attack power needs to be increased, the "dead air" can be integrated into the "Holy Spirit Wind" again. In this way, the wind will produce great destructive power due to the conflict between the "living air" and the "dead air", and this destructive power will be far better than the simple "Desolate Wind" or "Holy Spirit Wind". Once the opponent is caught in this wind, it is equivalent to directly participating in the conflict between the "life spirit" and the "death spirit". Even if the cultivation is not inferior to Xu Qingfan, the body will collapse instantly.

According to Xu Qingfan's idea, this wind can be called "the wind of destruction", and together with the "wind of the holy spirit", it is called "the wind of life and death", which is the first magical power transformed by Xu Qingfan.

However, after all, the "wind of destruction" is also extremely harmful to Xu Qingfan's body, so it cannot be used easily. But once it is used, the opponent will inevitably be seriously injured and killed.
