I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 309 "Seven Years Have Passed."

for the rest of the time.

Chen Lu visited other parts of the palace alone, including the Alchemy Hall, the Weapon Forging Hall, the Talisman Making Hall, and everything else. The most important thing was that these buildings were complete and had all the facilities.

It felt quite fresh at the beginning.

Later I gradually felt tired.

This palace is the greatest opportunity he has encountered so far. He feels that it is even greater than an opportunity like a Heavenly Dao Entry Group, but the problem is... He can't leave here and can't return to his own continent.

After a long time.

After finishing the tour, Chen Lu sighed lightly, changed the bedding on the bed, sat cross-legged on the bed, and turned on the spiritual energy input channel in the room. Almost instantly, the spiritual energy in the room became extremely abundant.

Then he used spirit stones to set up a spirit gathering array.

Before the limited-time colorful entry "Good Luck is Coming" disappears, your cultivation progress will be reduced by half, so just practice first.

Anyway, I can't leave for the time being, so I'll just practice and see if there is any improvement.

soon--

As the heavy snow fell, the entire palace was immersed in a vast expanse of white snow, and a year passed.

“It’s been a year.”

Chen Lu stood in the courtyard in a trance, looked up at the snowflakes floating in the sky, and muttered.

This heavy snowfall was very standard, a perfect snowfall, but unfortunately he was not in the mood to appreciate the snow scene. The entries "Good Luck is Coming" and "Thousands of Spells" had long expired.

His cultivation level also improved from the original "fourth level of fusion" to the "peak and great perfection of fusion".

With the support of "good luck coming", a thousand times faster cultivation speed, endless spiritual energy, and a large number of spirit stones, his cultivation level broke through quickly.

In just one year, they had already reached their peak.

There are five chances to "choose one of three" ordinary entries, and five chances to "choose one of three" premium entries, which are brought by breaking through a small realm of cultivation.

Under the effect of the "Step by Step (Premium)" entry, every time you break through a small realm, you can not only get a chance to choose one of three ordinary entries, but also get a chance to choose one of three premium entries.

The entry "Good Luck Is Coming" can not only greatly speed up the speed of cultivation, but also give you a hundred chances to re-select the entry. During the previous two breakthroughs, this entry had not expired.

In a hundred re-random opportunities.

He got two decent entries.
-
[Entry name]: Losing things.

"Entry Level": Purple.

[Effect of Item]: You will lose one of your items every other week. In return, your cultivation progress will increase by 5% for each item lost.
-
「Entry name」: Lost and returned.

"Entry Level": Purple.

[Effect of this Item]: Whatever you lose will be returned to you the next day. You will never abandon your treasures due to carelessness again, unless you discard them on your own initiative.
-
He selected these two entries after hundreds of screening attempts.

Not bad, he was quite satisfied.

When I originally chose the first entry, there was really no other entry to choose from, and the remaining two had greater negative effects, so I just picked one at random and prepared to have it self-destruct.

A 5% improvement in cultivation every week is really tempting.

The most important thing is that he is now in the fusion stage, and a 5% improvement in cultivation is already very tempting. In the future, as his cultivation level improves, the higher his cultivation level is, the more tempting this 5% improvement will be!
But the price is that he will randomly lose one of his items.

He found this a bit hard to accept. If he had lost a spirit stone or something, it would be fine, but if he had lost something like the Heavenly Secret Umbrella, he would be heartbroken.

He calculated that he had enough spirit stones. With such a large number of spirit stones, the probability of losing them was the highest. Sure enough, within a month of obtaining this entry, all the items he lost were spirit stones.

His original plan was to have this entry self-destruct when the batch of spirit stones was almost used up.

But who could have thought that when he made another breakthrough in his cultivation the next month, he would randomly come across the term "Lost and Returned". Well, now he doesn't have to worry about this problem at all, it's a perfect solution.

As for the remaining three common entries that were drawn, they are all very ordinary and it’s better not to mention them.

During this year of seclusion and practice, he thought of a way to leave this place.

That is.
Three entry opportunities can be combined into one opportunity for the synthesis of three top-quality entries, and the opportunities for the synthesis of three top-quality entries are combined after synthesis.

There is a 50% chance of getting three top-quality entries that are higher than one major realm of cultivation, a chance of choosing one out of three, a 30% chance of getting four out of ten top-quality entries, a 15% chance of getting a 'Fairy Light', which can upgrade any of your entries to the corresponding seven-color entry. If the entry has no corresponding seven-color entry, it will be upgraded to the highest grade corresponding to the entry, a 4.9% chance of getting a chance of choosing one out of three seven-color entries, and a 0.1% chance of getting a chance of choosing one out of three Heavenly Dao entry groups.

The chance of extracting three rare items can be used to synthesize items of higher quality.

His plan is simple.

Just keep accumulating opportunities to draw entries, and then see if you can draw the "Colorful Entries" or "Heavenly Entries Group" that can help him leave here. Apart from this, there is no other way.

As for the "fairy light".

It seems that none of his entries have the ability to teleport over long distances. Even if he has the fairy light to upgrade a certain entry to a corresponding colorful entry, there is no entry available. The most important thing is how does he know which entry has a corresponding colorful entry?

In other words.

After every three synthesis of top-grade items, the probability of allowing him to leave is only 5%. This is still based on the best possible result. We also have to ensure that he can draw the colorful items or the heavenly item group that can allow him to leave here.

"Ugh."

Chen Lu felt a little headache for a moment. He rubbed his temples gently and stood in the courtyard thinking without saying anything. He began to think of other solutions. Although this method had the possibility of success, the probability was too low.

We must think of other ways.

He has now accumulated five chances to draw "Premium Items", and he plans to accumulate more so that he can draw several times in a row, which gives him a higher chance. After all, he feels unsure about a single draw.

He had actually thought of many ways these days, but in the end he overturned them all.

such as.

Is it possible to find a way to spread the news that Jiang Buping's body has appeared in the world, to attract Jiang Buping to come across the void to look for him, and then use Jiang Buping to leave here? But it is unrealistic, they simply cannot send the news out.

The host of the secret realm, after being forcibly separated from the secret realm, also lost the ability to contact other spirit objects through the secret realm.

Even if the message could be sent out, Jiang Buping would not have the strength to cross the void.

If they really have the power to cross the void, they will not be able to survive even if Jiang Buping comes.

at this time--

"Brother Lu."

Not far away, Fei Long came walking on the snow with a look of surprise on his face: "Where did this snow come from? How can it snow in this damn place?"

“The palace’s own functions.”

Chen Yu looked at Fei Long who was carrying the liquor and whispered, "Weren't you in seclusion? Why are you out now?"

"Hey, I saw it was snowing, so I let go of my spiritual sense and sensed that you, Brother Shu, had come out of retreat. I thought that since you finally came out of retreat, I came to have a drink with you."

"It's a good time to drink on snowy days."

"Ah."

Chen Lu nodded lightly and said nothing more. He let Fei Long move the table out of the house and place it in the middle of the courtyard, and put some braised dishes and liquor on it. Fei Long had a lot of these things in his storage ring.

This guy will never starve no matter where he goes.

Another year.

"."

Chen Lu stood in front of the window in the house, looking up at the nothingness in the distance. He had gradually adapted to this environment, an environment with eternal daylight and no night.

And his cultivation level successfully reached the "first level of tribulation" this year.

He has successfully broken through to a great realm.

But oddly enough.

No matter whether it was the "thunder tribulation" that required a breakthrough to a higher realm or the "thunder tribulation" that required a breakthrough to a smaller realm, none of them had fallen. However, one had to be baptized by thunder and lightning to break through the tribulation period, and the thunder tribulation was delayed in falling, making it impossible to break through.

After some final thought, he chose to use his combined killer move "Three Thousand Thunders" to strike himself.

This time he successfully overcame the tribulation and broke through to a higher realm.

The only price he paid was lying in bed for seven months. This was also the first time he felt the power of his combined killing move. It was very hard and painful. It took a long time for the meridians in his body to be recast, and the recast meridians were stronger than before.

In addition, the improvement of cultivation level in the "Tribulation Period" is extremely slow.

This took him a year to break through a small realm.

He now has six chances to choose one of three "excellent" entries, and one chance to choose one of three ordinary entries.

He planned to accumulate three more chances to choose one from three "Zhenpin" entries before starting the lottery, a total of nine times, and he could combine three, which means three chances to draw. He was not sure whether he could get that "5%" chance of winning, so he could only rely on luck.

As for the chance to get an ordinary entry, he didn't draw it, so he might as well save it.

this time.

Chen Lu secluded himself for even longer, a full five years.

This was the longest time that Chen Yu had been in seclusion. For five years, Chen Yu had not left his room. Without any human control, the entire palace seemed extremely dull and lifeless.

Year after year, there was no change, no ripples, as if time had stood still.

And Chen Yu's cultivation level has reached the "Sixth Level of Tribulation".

So far, he has accumulated 11 opportunities to choose one of three "Zhenpin" entries.

"call"

Chen Lu slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath. He controlled the copper pillar to observe the conditions of other people. After pondering for a moment, he continued to practice and add up the times once more, making it exactly 12 times, which means he would have 4 chances to draw the lottery.

Whether I can go home depends on this vote.

The host of the secret realm has fallen into a coma. For him, sleeping for these few years is simply relaxing and stress-free. As for the prodigy of the Bai family, Bai Pingling, he is also very focused and does not feel anxious at all. For him, seclusion for a few years is normal.

Including Feilong, who has also been in seclusion, also has no sense of anxiety.

However, the people of Chaotian Sect, whom he had been worried about, were safe and sound, because he sensed that his cultivation speed had been increasing, which meant that these people were still making a name for him in other continents. He originally thought that he would not be able to hand over the fate of the ghost to the "Strange Buddha" in the first place, and that the Strange Buddha might vent his anger on the people of Chaotian Sect. Now it seems that the situation may be better than he thought.

He didn't think any more about it.

Instead, he took a deep breath and continued to practice. He had been in this palace for seven years, and the spirit stones he had accumulated during these seven years were almost all used up. He only had more than 20 million spirit stones left. If it weren't for the constant supply of spiritual energy, these spirit stones would have been consumed long ago.

Seven years.

A lot can change in seven years.

For example, the Bai family in "Qitian Continent".

The Bai family, who had originally planned to advance to the fourth-grade continent "Jiang Taiping" with the help of Chen Chu, finally stayed in the Qitian continent after Chen Chu did not return for seven years.

“It’s really unpredictable.”

At this time, the patriarch of the Bai family was standing in the courtyard of the Bai family, gazing at the white clouds in the sky in a trance. Seven years had passed since he went to that secret realm. The thing he regretted most in his life was giving the ticket to that secret realm to Chen Lu.

He didn't know what happened in the secret realm.

But he knew something was wrong.

He spent a lot of manpower and financial resources to find the list of all people who entered this secret realm, and finally came to the conclusion that within seven years, none of these people returned. In other words, including Chen Lu and the three geniuses of his Bai family, without exception, all died in this secret realm.

but
how could it be possible!
With the strength of the senior, how could he fail in a secret realm that only allowed "fusion cultivation" to enter? This is totally unreasonable! Although he was unwilling to believe it, it had already happened, and he could only choose to believe it.

In the past few days, he was still expecting his predecessor to suddenly return one day, but as time went by, he had to accept the reality that his predecessor was indeed trapped in this secret realm, and the three geniuses that his Bai family had spent a lot of money to cultivate would never come back.

After this incident, his ambition suddenly became much smaller, and his whole personality became somewhat easy-going.

There is not much fighting spirit anymore.

Even a figure like a senior died young. Is there anything eternal in this world? No matter how high his cultivation is, even if he leads the family to a higher level, it still doesn’t matter. He will still die young one day.

It makes no sense at all.

No one can resist it, just let it go.

At this moment, on a certain first-class continent.

The strange Buddha named "Mopan" was sitting in an abandoned temple with a few scholars, bored. They gathered together and sat on the ground to keep warm and avoid the cold.

"Scholar, your boss is obviously not coming back. Do you still want to complete your boss's mission?"

"It feels a bit meaningless. It's like the examiner is no longer here, so why are you answering the questions?"

"."

The scholar looked up at the strange Buddha, then looked down at the small flame in the campfire and whispered, "If that's the case, why do you continue to send us money every month?"

“This is a promise!”

The strange Buddha scratched the back of his head in annoyance: "The evil demon clan values ​​credibility, okay? I promised your boss that I would give you three hundred years, but your boss only gave me two strands of "Haunted Luck" in the end, one strand less than agreed, which means I can only give you two hundred years."

"This is called the spirit of contract. The evil demon clan values ​​the spirit of contract the most!"

"You must do what you promised. Otherwise, why would you agree to it?"

"But your boss still hasn't given me a ray of 'luck of the ghost'. Doesn't he know that I have cancer? Where have I been all these years? I almost died, damn it!"

The scholar's expression was calm. He picked up a piece of wood and threw it into the campfire and said casually, "Are you dead now?"

"Didn't I give you that ray of ghost luck?"

"no the same!"

The strange Buddha said with a serious and solemn expression: "The contract was made between me and your boss, so this strand of ghost luck must be given to me by your boss. Since your boss gave me less than one strand, I can only give you two hundred years. Now almost eight years have passed, and there are only 192 years left."

"As for the strand you gave me, that's between us and we'll have to settle it separately."

"And to be honest, your boss might really be gone. I know you've been waiting, thinking that your boss will definitely not die. In fact, your boss is indeed among the top three people I've met in terms of potential and luck."

"He is a peerless demon and genius."

"but--"

"I have personally witnessed the death of even the most evil geniuses. Nowadays, no one is immune to death. It is meaningless to keep waiting. It is better to do something more meaningful."

"Then what do you think is meaningful?" The scholar raised his head and said softly, "Establishing a sect? Or going to a secret realm to train, or improving your cultivation?"

"For example, teach your mute brother to speak."

"I'm not mute."

The scholar brother, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly shook his head.

"Can you talk?"

The strange Buddha looked at the scholar brother with a flash of shock in his eyes, and then he said with a strange look: "The words are quite clear, since you can speak and you are not a stutterer, why don't you speak?"

"What's your brother's name?"

The scholar did not reply, but just dusted himself off, walked out of the temple, stretched his body and said casually: "Okay, I'll go to work first, and I'll come and chat with you next time."

"Bring some Shaodao next time." The strange Buddha looked at the scholar's back and shouted hurriedly, "It's so cold, how can you survive without some Shaodao? Bring some braised food too, don't always come empty-handed, damn it, do you hear me!"

"understood."

The scholar waved his hand impatiently, without even turning his head, and walked down the mountain path with his bearded brother following him.

"Brother, I believe that Brother Lu is not dead."

Halfway through the walk, the scholar brother, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke again.

"I know."

The scholar waved his hand, then looked at his brother beside him and said, "You have already said two sentences today, don't talk anymore."

The scholar's younger brother nodded and said nothing more, following the scholar obediently.

When the scholar reached the foot of the mountain, he looked back at the mountains behind him, paused for a moment, and then continued to drive forward in the snowstorm with a calm expression.

Scholar is just his pseudonym.

He once had other aliases, such as Baiyi and his own name.

But his younger brother had no name from the beginning.

His younger brother was born a "nobody".

Born nameless and unable to have a name, the Heavenly Edict will never sound for his younger brother, simply because his younger brother has no name at all and cannot be included in the Heavenly Edict.

As for why he is not mute but doesn’t speak.

This is a long story. Actually, the younger brother used to be a very talkative person. But since some time ago, they suddenly realized that every time his younger brother said a word, they might encounter bad luck in the future.

This is probabilistic.

The probability is not small, and the more they talk, the more bad luck they will encounter.

Including the time when he was seriously injured and his cultivation level dropped in the Great Xia Kingdom, before leaving, his younger brother reminded him to be careful and gave him a few more words. Since then, his younger brother basically didn't say much, only saying a word or two when he really couldn't help it at certain times.

Especially when others say he is mute, he always can't help but clarify.

As for why this happened, he didn't know, perhaps it was because of the "unknown person".

"An unknown person" is not a term, but an identity identifier. This identity cannot be known to others, otherwise they will be encountered together when bad luck happens.

If his younger brother had not told him that he was an "unknown person", the bad luck caused by his younger brother would not have affected him.

This is also the reason why I didn’t tell Brother Lu.

Although he sometimes kept thinking, with Brother Lu's luck, maybe he could withstand it?
But then I thought about it and decided to forget it.
No need.

When he was in Daxia, he had only seen his younger brother possess this kind of "identity mark". After traveling to so many continents over the years, he had always wanted to find a second person with an "identity mark", but he had never met one.

Only my younger brother is here.

He didn't know whether this special feature was good or bad, but at least it was under control so far.

"Really are"

Inside the temple.

The strange Buddha looked at the two scholars on the mountain road from a distance, sighed lightly and said nothing. Chen Lu's life or death has been uncertain for seven years, and among so many people in the Chaotian Sect, not one has left, not one has betrayed, and they are even conscientiously completing the tasks assigned by Chen Lu.

This is simply an incredible behavior.

the most important is.

Almost everyone in Chaotian Sect firmly believed that Chen Lu was not dead, but was just trapped there and would come out soon. They believed this day after day.

To be able to give subordinates such strong belief, it is not enough to create a single miracle. It is necessary to create countless miracles in order to make the people below firmly believe that the next miracle will happen.

just
According to his experience, living in uncertainty about life or death for seven years is basically the same as actually being dead.

Even if you are not dead, you will be trapped somewhere forever. Maybe you will come out after thousands of years, but even if you have come out by then, it will be no different from being dead. Everything will be different.

As for him, he didn't care. Anyway, his immortal cancer had been cured, his cultivation had been fully restored, and he chose to stay in the First-Class Continent simply to fulfill his promise to Chen Lu. Without him here to keep the peace, the other weird Buddhas would not treat Chaotian Zong and others so readily.

There are only 192 years left, which is just a blink of an eye for his long life.

The only trouble is that I can't retreat, nor can I sleep. I need to ensure that I'm awake every month. This is the most annoying thing. It's like stopping at every moment and I can't be consistent at all.

"senior."

On the Fourth-Grade Continent, Jiang Taiping Continent, the Barbarian Chief stood on a mountain top with a complicated expression. There had been no news from the senior for seven years, and he could not locate Chen Lu's position based on the sound transmission talisman.

He once sent someone to the "Bai Family" in Qitian Continent.

I went to ask the Bai family about Chen Lu's situation and learned that Chen Lu had gone to a secret realm called "Drunkenness, Dreaming of Death" which could only be entered by those with the highest level of combined cultivation. He had never returned since then and his life or death was unknown.

He didn't believe that his predecessor would die in a secret realm of this level.

He spent a lot of money to find the historical information of this secret realm and found that it was not too difficult. It was impossible for a secret realm of this difficulty to cause the predecessor to die there. This was totally unreasonable.

But no matter how much he didn't believe it, there had been no news from his senior for seven years.

He specifically looked for someone from the Gua Sect, trying to calculate the senior's current state of life or death. However, the things calculated by that Gua Sect were all chaotic, and he was unable to deduce anything at all, and he didn't know whether he was dead or not.

a long time.

The barbarian leader Badan sighed and prepared to return to the fifth-grade fairyland. He actually wanted to find his senior and tell him about the major events that had happened recently and that Zhao Yishi's cultivation had successfully broken through the Void Refining Stage.

Then he got up and returned to the fairyland. A lot of things had happened in the fairyland in recent days, and he was a little overwhelmed. It would have been great if the senior was still here.

I'm sure there is a way, senior.

The fifth level of immortal world.

"Prince Wei's Mansion", in the mansion, a woman in a long dress was soaking in a hot spring, listening to her subordinates reporting intelligence beside her, her brows slightly frowned.

This woman was the King of Wei.

And the middle-aged woman in armor beside the hot spring is her confidant.

Her mortal enemy, the "Qi Zong", suddenly gave up on annexing them seven years ago, and even took the initiative to come to her door and ask for peace without any conditions. After that, they changed their previous style and became extremely low-key and introverted.

They no longer bullied the surrounding forces, but instead closed the mountain gate and had everyone go into seclusion.

A stable development.

Although the two forces have already sought peace, she knows the character of that cripple Qi Zong very well. Peace is only temporary, and there will be a war sooner or later. She has been collecting intelligence about Qi Zong over the years.

The biggest change in Qi Zong is
It seems like I have become richer.

The expenses were much higher, the Qi Sect's spiritual energy was much richer, the time required to activate the Spirit Gathering Array was obviously longer, and more strategic materials were purchased.

It's just that Qi Zong seemed very worried that others would find out that he had become rich, so he was very careful when spending spirit stones. Basically, he didn't spend much more than usual, only about a 50% increase, which was difficult for ordinary people to notice. But she happened to know Qi Zong very well, so she naturally discovered the fluctuation.

"Suddenly became rich?"

The woman soaking in the hot spring thought for a long time before frowning and saying, "Could it be that the cripple has also gone to repay his gratitude?"

"That's not right. There shouldn't be such a thing as an immortal man repaying a favor, right?"

The reason why the Prince of Wei's Mansion suddenly became a little richer was because she, as a fairy, went to repay her gratitude and received a considerable amount of "repayment of gratitude and blessing". Why did the "Qi Zong" suddenly become rich without any signs?
She didn't know exactly what happened.

But considering her character towards that crippled Qi Zong, she would most likely cheat and deceive him.
