I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 102: Over and over again, and finally exhausted.

Inside the Chaotian Sect.

Feilong built a bonfire and sat on the ground with the scholar and his younger brother, chatting casually.

“Although life was very hard in the past.”

Fei Long said with emotion: "But I have always believed that life will not always be bitter. There will always be a day when all the suffering will end and happiness will come. A truly strong person will never feel humiliated for kneeling down yesterday."

"Look, I've made it through now."

His face was filled with pride and he couldn't help but boast: "With my destiny of dual cultivation, maybe in a few years, I can also strive for the Golden Elixir. When the time comes, I will go to flatten the Xianhua Sect and slaughter everyone in the sect!"

"Damn it, I'll remember this grudge forever!"

"Besides, I have Brother Shu to protect me. Even if life is hard now, it is much better than before. Even if the whole world becomes our enemy, at least we still have the small world to keep us safe and not become homeless dogs."

“I think it’s pretty good now.”

"Indeed." The scholar also smiled and patted his legs: "I have always felt that after becoming a disabled person, the only motivation for me to live is my brother, but I don't know why, after staying with you for a long time, I feel like I have some hope in life."

"Hi."

Fei Long smiled and put his arm around the scholar's shoulders and grinned, "Life will always get better and better. Come, let's drink to celebrate our destined bright future!"

Even the usually taciturn scholar brother raised his glass and said in a muffled voice: "Actually, I always hate it when my brother says he lives for me, but he always says that."

The three of them gathered around the campfire, talking about the past and looking forward to the future with laughter, and their feelings for each other continued to grow.

And not far away.

Chen Lu was sitting cross-legged on an oval stone practicing alone.

Yes, when leaving the canyon, he packed the oval stone beside the stream into his small world.

This stone is quite convenient for practicing while sitting on it.

After he had absorbed all 142 Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pills.

His cultivation has also gone from
"Cultivation": Foundation Establishment Stage 29 (%)
Arrived——

"Cultivation": Sixth level of foundation building period (0%)
"The sixth level of foundation building."

Chen Lu slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of foul air. The spiritual energy slowly covered the entire surface of his body like a thin film. He casually cast a lightning spell and smashed it towards the wasteland not far away. Then he nodded slightly with satisfaction.

The lightning-inducing spell released by the sixth level of foundation building is much larger than before.

And at the moment when the Lightning Inducing Technique was launched, under the effects of "double casting" and "tenfold casting", it also evolved into twelve Lightning Inducing Techniques.

The sixth level of foundation building is only one step away from the late stage of foundation building.

Under the effect of the Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill, the speed at which he broke through his cultivation was enough to make everyone dumbfounded. At the same time, the familiar panel wrapped in clouds and mist appeared again above his dantian.

Under the effect of the step-by-step improvement entry, every time you break through a small realm, you can freely choose one of three random entries.
-
"My cultivation has greatly increased, and I have officially entered the sixth level of the foundation-building period."

"Please choose from the three random entries below in ten breaths."

1:

「Entry name」: Save the dying and heal the wounded.

"Entry Level": Green.

[Effect of the Item]: All your spells that restore injuries will not be effective on yourself, but their effects on others will be tripled.

2:

「Entry name」: Slippery.

"Entry Level": Green.

[Entry Effect]: Every time you are attacked, you will automatically teleport to a random location within a ten-foot radius.

3:

「Entry name」: complement each other.

"Entry Level": Green.

[Effect of the term]: The greater your overall Taoist foundation is, the farther the range of your spiritual awareness will be.
-
"Hey."

Looking at the three entries this time, a smile finally emerged on Chen Lu's face, and he chose the third entry without any hesitation. He had not randomly selected an entry suitable for him in several consecutive upgrades, and this time he finally got one that was extremely suitable for him.

The hit rate of a spell depends mainly on spiritual awareness.

After your spiritual consciousness locks onto the enemy, no matter how fast the enemy moves, as long as it is not as fast as your spell speed, it will be tracked and hit by your spell.

The same applies when a sword cultivator controls a flying sword to attack the enemy.

The ability for spiritual consciousness to leave the body is a means for the powerful Jindan. Before entering the Jindan stage, spiritual consciousness can only leave the body a distance of one or two feet to open storage rings, etc. It is really a fantasy to want to lock onto the enemy.

This is also why foundation-building monks basically do not cast spells right away when fighting.

If you fail to hit it and the spiritual energy in your body is exhausted, you will really become a lamb to be slaughtered.

Even magic practitioners use magic treasures as their main means of attack when they are building their foundation. They will only take action when they are close to the opponent and are sure that their spells will basically hit the target.

certainly--

He is an exception.

He usually aims with his naked eyes, and then throws hundreds of arrows at it. There will always be a hit. This is a special case, and ordinary foundation-building cultivators cannot do it like him.

With the term "complement each other", even if he has not yet entered the golden elixir stage, his consciousness can leave his body, which can be said to have greatly increased his means of attack.

"go with!"

Chen Lu's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at a small stone on the wasteland not far away, and he casually threw a lightning spell at it.

The twelve lightning-inducing spells drew different arcs in the air and then accurately hit the small stone.

"Good."

Chen Lu smiled with satisfaction. This entry greatly enriched his means of attack, especially when he was in the foundation-building stage. In many cases, he could definitely catch the enemy off guard. He could even throw hundreds of lightning spells into the sky and then lock onto the enemy with his spiritual sense.

Hundreds of lightning strikes drew different arcs in the air and smashed towards the enemy, giving the enemy a big surprise.

Although the distance his spiritual consciousness could leave his body was far less than that of a Jindan master, he had experimented and found that it was roughly within a hundred feet, but that was enough. At least the enemies within a hundred feet could be accurately locked onto by his Thunder Inducing Technique no matter how they moved.

After he enters the golden elixir stage, with the blessing of this term, the range of his spiritual awareness will be much farther than that of the golden elixir of the same level.

By that time, he would be in a situation where, before he entered the opponent's attack range, his Lightning Inducing Technique would have already flown out of his hand and was about to hit the enemy's face. Basically, he could seize the initiative every time.

Good.

In fact, the first entry is also very good. If other monks choose it, they only need to practice spells that can restore injuries, and then they can transform into a strong nurse on the battlefield, frantically restoring the injuries of their teammates. As long as they don't fall down, their teammates will not fall down.

The second entry is also good.

If the third entry had not been too suitable for him, he would have most likely chosen the second entry. At that time, this "Slippery Without Leaving" would be combined with the "Shrinking the Earth into an Inch" that he had not yet learned, and the landing point would be infinitely random.

Not to mention whether the enemy can find his position, even he himself can't find where he is.

"call!"

Chen Lu let out a long sigh of satisfaction, then he circulated his mental skills again to start consolidating his sixth level of foundation building. After taking 389 of the 142 cultivation pills tonight, he still had 247 left.

If the "Reputation Ranking" remains and exists within the next seven days.

The Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pills he obtained should be enough for him to break through to the peak of Foundation Establishment before the Tianjiao Ranking Competition begins. By then, with his many trump cards, he may be able to go to the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm to give it a try.

"At this speed, Brother Shu is not far from reaching the Golden Core stage. Is there any limit to breaking through the Golden Core stage?"

Fei Long looked at Chen Lu's hardworking back, then tilted his head to look at the scholar curiously.

"Have."

The scholar nodded and said with a smile: "The most basic restriction is that you need to improve your cultivation to the peak of foundation building, and then find a day when you are in good condition to practice the mental method to condense the spiritual energy in your body into spiritual liquid."

"And try to make the spiritual fluid boil, and constantly wash the foundation of Taoism. After washing the foundation countless times, the golden elixir inside the foundation of Taoism will be revealed."

"Even if the mirror is broken successfully, it will be a golden elixir."

"So simple?" Fei Long raised his eyebrows and said, "I heard that your Great Xia country has so many cultivators at the peak of foundation building who cannot break through to the golden elixir stage. They have no choice but to submit to Great Xia and serve as city lords. They rely on the luck of Great Xia to break through to the golden elixir stage. I thought it was very difficult to break through to the golden elixir stage."

“It’s just easier said than done.”

The scholar nodded.

"The process of condensing spiritual energy into spiritual liquid requires a large amount of spiritual energy replenishment, which first means that you need to prepare enough spiritual stones for yourself. The absorption speed of low-grade spiritual stones is definitely not fast enough, so you must use medium-grade spiritual stones."

"Qi-boosting pills will contain impurities and are definitely not suitable for use in such an important situation as the Golden Core Breakthrough."

"And the speed of absorbing mid-grade spirit stones is still not enough. You need to prepare at least 7749 mid-grade spirit stones to set up a spirit gathering array, and sit in the center of the array to prepare for a breakthrough."

"This is one of the difficulties: money!"

"The market price of a mid-grade spirit stone is nearly 600 low-grade spirit stones, and it is extremely difficult to obtain. You must prepare nearly 3 low-grade spirit stones and spend a long time for several years to purchase mid-grade spirit stones."

"Just this first difficulty basically screens out most people from the Golden Core Sect."

"If you don't have the support of your family sect, to put it bluntly, you will have to do a lot of sinful things to save up forty-nine mid-grade spirit stones."

"The second difficulty: do it over and over again, and then you'll be exhausted."

The scholar paused and continued, "After the spiritual energy turns into spiritual liquid, you must circulate the mental method to make it boil and then cleanse the foundation of Taoism. This process is very painful, and when cleaning the foundation of Taoism, you will feel the pain like scraping."

"And there can't be any accidents."

"The spiritual stones drawn from the outside world are insufficient, and we are defeated."

"Someone outside is interfering, and we lose."

"The pain is unbearable and my mind is in a trance. I lose."

"If there is a hidden injury in the foundation of the Tao or the foundation is unstable, then the pain will be multiplied several times each time you wash it. If you are distracted, you will still fail."

"If any accident occurs during the process, causing you to fail in your first breakthrough to the Golden Core, then the spiritual energy in your foundation will turn into spiritual liquid. Although you don't have the Golden Core cultivation base, you already have the spiritual liquid that only Golden Cores have."

"After the spiritual energy turns into liquid, the power of the spell will be greatly enhanced."

"At this time, you are called a half-step golden elixir."

"If you want to break through from Half-step Golden Core to Golden Core, it will be much more difficult than the first time. If you fail again this time, the next time will be several times more difficult. Basically, if there is no adventure, you can stop here in this life."

"That's right. Basically, all cultivators at the peak of foundation building will try their best to prepare everything when they break through to the golden elixir stage. Then, when the sect or family activates a protective formation and countless people join forces to protect them, they will concentrate on breaking through to the golden elixir stage at all costs."

"As for independent cultivators, they often find an uninhabited place and try to break through alone."

"Good guy"

Fei Long was somewhat shocked and murmured, "It does sound difficult. No wonder so many people are stuck at the peak of foundation building and can only rely on the luck of Daxia to enter the golden elixir stage. These 30,000 spirit stones alone are enough to crush most people."

"if not?"

The scholar shook his head helplessly and said, "Why else do you think you founded a sect and found a great man with the cultivation level of the early stage of the Golden Core to help you cross the bridge, only to receive 100 spirit stones from you?"

"Are those Jindan masters only worth 100 spirit stones?"

"If you dare to ask for 150 spirit stones, you won't even see the order, it will be taken away by someone else."

"It's almost all the wealth of those families to raise a golden elixir. If you don't give back to the family, those people in your family will starve to death." "It's good to get 100 spirit stones for a job like crossing a bridge, which is not dangerous and not troublesome."

"That's it—"

"You feel it's already difficult, right?"

"But even if you have accomplished all of the above, the golden elixir you have formed will only be a first-grade golden elixir."

"Golden elixirs are divided into grades one to five."

"The first rank is the weakest, the fifth rank is the strongest."

"Every time you upgrade to a higher level, you need a lot of natural treasures. They are all white spiritual stones. I almost threw away half my life just to get a second-level golden elixir."

"Hey."

Fei Long smiled and said, "I'm not worried about that. Brother Shu must be the strongest fifth-grade golden elixir."

"."

The scholar rolled his eyes at Fei Long in annoyance: "Although I also trust Brother Shu, I have to tell you one thing. For hundreds of years, I have only heard of one person in Daxia who has a fourth-grade golden elixir, and that is the current emperor. I don't know how many people have it secretly."

"But for the fifth-grade golden elixir, I can tell you clearly."

"No one has."

"That is a legend recorded in history books."

""

The scholar had already cleared away the impurities. After Chen Lu practiced his mental method to slightly consolidate his realm, he did not plan to continue taking the Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill. He wanted to first adapt himself to the sixth level of foundation building, so as to ensure the stability of his foundation.

Withdrew from the small world and prepared to set off again.

They walked and stopped along the way. When the sun rose to the middle of the sky and it was noon, they had stopped on a high mountain somewhere in Nanzhou, and they had already traveled one third of the total journey across the boundless ice field.

“Isn’t this a full circle?”

Fei Long looked down at the map in his arms and asked in confusion: "Wouldn't it be faster if we went straight through 'Qiangzhou'?"

"Ah."

The scholar shrugged. "That's the theory, but many years ago, when His Majesty was on a flying boat to visit Qiangzhou incognito, he was overtaken by dozens of sword cultivators flying on their swords. Soon after, Qiangzhou banned sword flying throughout the state."

"Only people from the Qiangzhou government can fly with swords. No one else is allowed."

"So we can only bypass "Qiangzhou". It is also because of this ban that "Qiangzhou" was originally a relatively prosperous state in the southern part of the country. Due to the lack of trade, it has gradually become deserted in recent years."

"It has become the private preserve of many evil cultivators."

"Those evil cultivators don't rely on flying swords, so they thrive in Qiangzhou like fish in water."

"Let me rest for a while. I've taken too many Qi-boosting pills. We'll continue our journey later. If nothing goes wrong, we'll definitely reach the Endless Icefield before dark."

In the capital, inside Zhang's house.

"Master of the house."

A subordinate dressed in black was kneeling on one knee and reporting in a deep voice: "We have investigated clearly that the former white-robed swordsman who was hunted by the Zhang family is indeed still alive, but his cultivation has fallen to the early stage of foundation building. He appeared in the Tiandao Pavilion a few days ago and bought a piece of "Tiandao Gem Jade", probably to suppress the poison."

"I have been staying in Wentianfang City for the past few years, but the whereabouts of the owner of Wentianfang City are currently unknown. I don't know where he has gone, and I have no way to ask him."

"The cultivator who was following me, according to the Huang family of Fufeng City, was still in the Qi Refining Stage a few days ago, and he still had some grudges against the Huang family. But in less than half a month, he has already entered the second level of Foundation Establishment."

"He is a magic practitioner who is famous for his ability to cast spells frequently and multiple times."

"Wherever he passed, the Qi-boosting pills in all the shops in the city were almost sold out. According to my subordinates, this magic cultivator should have an entry that is quite compatible with magic cultivators. However, in order to maintain his combat effectiveness, he must take a large amount of Qi-boosting pills."

"Interesting." The middle-aged man sitting on the chair narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the photo of Chen Yu and the scholar fighting together in Fufeng City, saying, "It's better not to die, it's better not to die."

"It's just great."

"This time, I must learn from you how to achieve the Nascent Soul stage."

then.

Everyone thought it was just a minor quarrel, so the Zhang family in the capital mobilized the entire clan to hunt down Bai Yi, the number one swordsman in Da Xia. But in fact, only the Zhang family knew the real reason.

That is.
This Great Xia's number one swordsman, dressed in white, knows how to attain Nascent Soul!

Bai Yi knew that this was a problem that the Great Xia Kingdom had not solved for hundreds of years. Back then, they had tried their best to hold back and seriously injure Bai Yi so as to force him to reveal the secret, but they did not expect that the other party would still die. They have been regretting this matter all these years.

However, he did not expect that the other party had faked his death and escaped that day, which rekindled a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"Send the order!"

"Don't be stingy with your spirit stones. Collect all the information about Bai Yi and that Dharma cultivator, including the people around him."

"Find a suitable opportunity and catch them all with lightning speed."

"clear."

The man in black responded with a serious expression, then slowly backed away from the dim room.

"very good."

After the men in black left, the patriarch of the Zhang family slowly stood up and put his hands behind his back. After pacing in the room for several circles, he couldn't help but show uncontrollable excitement on his face. As long as their Zhang family knew the answer, they would have the only Nascent Soul in Da Xia!

By then, the Great Xia Kingdom would also have to change its name.

He also has to sit on the throne.

But soon, a trace of worry and nervousness appeared on his face again. He didn't know whether the man in white had leaked the news. No, he had to do it as soon as possible and capture him before too many people noticed him!
Although the man in white was extremely good at escaping, as long as a trap was set in advance, he would be unable to escape even if he had wings.

"correct!"

The Zhang family patriarch suddenly thought of something, looked towards the shadows in the house and said hoarsely: "Find something for Ji Taiping to do. It would be best if he is transferred away from the capital. He and Bai Yi have a mortal feud, so as to prevent this fool from causing trouble for me."

"clear."

An old man's voice was heard from the shadows in the house, but the person could not be seen.

In the capital, somewhere on a mountain.

Ji Taiping frowned as he looked at the message coming from the Sound Transmission Palace. He stood on the edge of the cliff with one hand behind his back. After a long silence, he looked at Ji Renjian beside him and whispered.

"I have received an order from the palace that there is war in the hundreds of countries in the west. I must go there to quell the war and promote peace."

"I'm afraid it will take dozens of days."

"I'll go with you." Ji Renjian was standing barefoot on the bluestone, leaning on Ji Taiping's shoulder like a little bird, and said in a daze.

"No."

Ji Taiping shook his head: "You forgot the agreement between you and me. You can't leave Jingzhou. Last time you secretly left Jingzhou without telling me, you encountered so many dangers along the way. If I hadn't protected you in secret, would you still be standing here?"

"It's very dangerous outside. Stay on Qingfeng and don't run around. Just wait patiently for me to come back."

"Ah."

Ji Renjian looked at Ji Taiping reluctantly: "Then be careful."

In the past, she always felt that her brother was a bit dissolute and not doing his job properly, indulging in alcohol and sex every day. Until that time, she secretly left Jingzhou alone because of her love for fun. Even though she had disguised herself and made herself ugly on purpose, she was the most beautiful woman in the world after all. The little bit of beauty that was leaked was enough to drive many people crazy.

But every time she was in crisis.

There is always a green sword shooting from a distance to protect her safety.

Although no one is seen.

But along the way she chattered a lot with the green sword, and the green sword kept dancing beside her as if expressing joy. She knew that there were only two people in the whole Daxia who had such a strong sword intent.

One was a swordsman in white, and the other was his brother Ji Taiping.

But at that time, there was an order from the palace, asking the two of them to go to a hundred countries to quell the war. Whoever quelled the war would be given the title of "Sword Master of the Nation". With this title, they would be able to harness a bit of Daxia's luck, increase their understanding of the way of the sword, and greatly enhance their own strength.

In her impression, the swordsman in white was a sword fanatic.

He didn't care about anything except practicing swordsmanship, and he had only met her once.

And the green sword that protected her naturally belonged to her brother Ji Taiping.

After traveling for a while, she returned to Jingzhou and told her brother about this. Her brother was expressionless and silent for a long time before he admitted it. He did not allow her to leave Jingzhou at will in the future.

I heard that not long after her brother killed all those family members who had ill intentions towards her.

Although she felt that her brother was a little cruel, she felt happy when she thought that he was venting his anger for her.

From then on, her impression of her brother changed drastically.

"Ah."

Ji Taiping pinched Ji Renjian's nose lovingly, then ruffled Ji Renjian's hair and smiled gently, "Don't worry, the person who can kill your brother hasn't been born yet."

"When I return, I will bring you some specialties from the Hundred Countries."

Subsequently.

Ji Taiping did not stay any longer and turned to walk down the mountain, leaving Ji Renjian alone, looking at Ji Taiping's back in a trance without saying a word.

Her name is Renjian.

My brother's name is Taiping.

When their parents gave them this name, it meant peace on earth.

She really hoped that the world could be peaceful, so that her brother wouldn't have to travel to hundreds of countries to quell wars, and could always stay by her side. She could also travel to other states with her brother.

Ji Taiping walked down the mountain. As soon as he got down the mountain, a man in black came up to him and said hurriedly, "Master Sword Guardian, according to your instructions, we have locked on to three more storytellers who often boast about Bai Yi's past deeds."

"Kill them all."

Ji Taiping strode forward with a cold expression: "Don't ask me about this kind of thing in the future. Let alone three, even if there are three hundred people who dare to brag about Bai Yi, I will kill them all."

"No matter how big the problem is, I, Ji Taiping, can handle it."

"There is one person in the world who says I am not as good as Bai Yi."

"I will kill one person."

"If everyone in the world says that I am not as good as Bai Yi."

"Then I will kill everyone in the world."

"Since you have come to report this, the people have already been killed. If you encounter any problems, please ask your predecessor for advice. If there is such a stupid thing again, I will start with you first."

The man in black lowered his head hastily, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes, and whispered, "I understand."

"Feizhou".

It is the southernmost province among the 19 provinces of Daxia. Due to the climate, it is cold all year round and many people are relatively strong and fat, so it is named "Feizhou".

Originally, after crossing this continent, they would reach the boundless ice field, which was their destination.

But the scholar insisted on taking them to Feicheng, the most prosperous city in Feizhou, saying that he wanted to show them a great treasure.
