Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 198 Deep Sea Treasure Hunt
Not long after, the top brass of the Ling family released the news that the Jindan Zhenren who had just broken through was an outsider cultivator who had only borrowed the family's third-level spiritual vein cave to break through.

At present, the Jindan Zhenren has already left and did not stay in the Ling family of Changqingzhou.

This statement seems credible, but it is actually not reliable at all.

Although there are powerful characters among the independent cultivators, they are relatively rare after all. The vast majority of independent cultivators have mediocre talents, and the skills and supernatural powers they cultivate are ordinary.

What kind of casual cultivator can achieve the highest grade golden elixir in one go?
Therefore, any cultivator with some brains would not believe the Ling family’s announcement.

Of course, they had no way of getting to the bottom of it and finding out who the new Golden Core True Person was.

Anyway, the Ling family's position as the sole owner of the Feiyu Sea is becoming more and more solid. At least for now, there is no sign of any force emerging to challenge the Ling family.

However, some Jindan forces in the neighboring waters have quietly increased their intelligence gathering efforts in the Feiyu waters.

Although there was no evidence, some guys who were alert enough had already sensed that a conflict with the Ling family of Changqingzhou was inevitable someday in the future.

Unlike secular dynasties, the strategic layout of monastic forces usually starts from a hundred years, and it is not uncommon to last for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Perhaps preparing for a rainy day now will be a life-saving straw in the future?
However, those Nascent Soul forces did not take this matter to heart at all. After all, the Jindan level forces were not worthy of being their opponents.

The Ling family of Changqingzhou wants to rise?

Let’s wait until a Yuanying Zhenjun is born in their family!

……

After Ling Changqing came out of seclusion, he was surrounded by the women before he could figure out what to do.

In the next few months, the boudoir became a battlefield. Ling Changqing stayed at home and took turns to indulge in the girls, using all kinds of tricks to torment them.

Not only did they benefit a lot, Ling Changqing himself also enjoyed it very much. He was so addicted to the gentleness of the thin and plump woman that he couldn't extricate himself, and his own cultivation was also not affected.

It was not until three months later that this kind of selfless practice came to an end.

Ling Yulu, Qin Yun and Ling Yuzhu were delighted to find that they were not far from the Jindan realm. Perhaps with another three to five years of accumulation, they would be able to achieve their wish.

And with Ling Changqing by their side to suppress their luck, their chances of successful promotion are quite high.

Ling Changqing was still busy after walking out of the boudoir. In addition to teaching female students, he, who was already a third-level alchemist, also had to open the furnace to refine pills and draw talismans.

However, this is not a mandatory task. The various elixirs refined and the talismans drawn are all Ling Changqing's personal resources, and he has the final say on how to use them.

Now that he is already a Jindan Zhenren, Ling Changqing also plans to start learning the art of formations and refining, as well as the most important art of divination.

If these five important auxiliary skills are honed and upgraded to the third level, Ling Changqing's overall strength will reach an unprecedented level.

Ling Yulu, the master of the family law enforcement hall, is a second-level formation master. Ling Changqing can ask her for advice when he is free. I believe she will be very happy to do so.

But there is no ready-made weapon refiner in the Ling family, Ling Yuzhu is only good at refining mechanical puppets.

There is a weapon refiner among the hired independent cultivators, but his level is limited and he currently just barely reaches the upper level of the first grade.

Even for the sake of confidentiality, Ling Changqing would never let the other party come to be his teacher.

Xue Qingtan then suggested that they could hire a third-rank weapon refiner from the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce to give Ling Changqing private lessons, as long as there were enough spirit stone resources.

Ling Changqing agreed to consider it, but even if he made a decision, it would obviously not be appropriate now, and he would have to wait two years.

As for the art of divination, Meng Feiyu and Xue Qingtan, as powerful beings who have been reincarnated, can serve as Ling Changqing's teachers as their memories of their past lives gradually recover.

So in the next few months, Ling Changqing ran back and forth between the two women's caves and temples, asking them for advice while not forgetting to practice dual cultivation. After all, he could not favor one over the other.

In the inner room of the boudoir filled with hazy aura and rich fragrance.

“…In the prehistoric era, there were many powerful beings, many of whom were innate beings that had been born before the creation of the universe. However, with the advent of various disasters, these innate beings either perished, fell into a deep sleep, or escaped into the depths of the chaotic void and disappeared.

...In that era, natural treasures were everywhere, and powerful people from all races emerged one after another. Of course, wars were also commonplace. It can be said that there were thousands of races and heroes competing for supremacy.

...After the end of the prehistoric times came the ancient times. During this period, the originally weak human race had gradually grown and became the most powerful ethnic group in the world.

Correspondingly, other intelligent races gradually declined, and were even exterminated. All kinds of conspiracies and intrigues were inevitable.

The major ethnic groups have united to fight against humans more than once, trying to regain the authority over heaven and earth, but unfortunately they always lose more than they win...

In the ancient times, the status of the human race as the ruler of heaven and earth was unshakable, and other ethnic groups either became vassals of the human race, or retreated to the outer space, or their descendants were cut off..."

On the large jade embroidered couch, the charming and graceful Meng Feiyu lay on Ling Changqing. She opened her lustrous and beautiful cherry lips and told him all kinds of secrets of the ancient times.

After dozens of rounds of practice, the two were still naked and inseparable.

Ling Changqing embraced Meng Feiyu's smooth and tight waist, and gently stroked her big, snowy and dazzling breasts with an amazing curve. The wonderful touch of her fragrant, smooth and soft breasts made the fire in his heart, which had just subsided, quietly rise.

Meng Feiyu rolled her eyes at him coquettishly. This little man was good in every way except that he was too emotional. He always liked to take off her clothes for no reason and was obsessed with her body.

But it’s also good this way. With the help of Ling Changqing’s luck, my cultivation and memory are continuing to recover. I believe that one day I will return to the peak.

Deep in Ling Changqing's sea of ​​consciousness, the message from the Epoch Star Palace emerged silently:
[Heavenly Secret Numbers: 97/20000 (First-class Low-quality)]

[Zhan Dao: 561/20000 (First-level inferior)]

Among the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, the difficulty of practicing the art of divination and numerology is ranked first.

This ability not only requires extremely high talent and qualifications from the cultivator, but also has a high cost to cultivate.

Some powerful mystical powers of deduction usually require the loss of the cultivator's own vitality, lifespan, luck and fortune when they are used, and it is difficult to recover afterwards.

Therefore, most of the powerful monks who are proficient in the art of divination and numerology have a short lifespan and rarely die a good death.

It was only because they knew too many secrets that they shouldn't know, and thus offended God, resulting in constant disasters and calamities.

"...The cultivation system in the prehistoric times should be very different from the current one, right?"

Ling Changqing asked.

Meng Feiyu nodded and said, "That's true. At that time, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was abundant and the Dao rhyme was rich. It was much easier for cultivators to comprehend the mysteries of the Dao than it is now..."

Another key factor is the abundance of resources between heaven and earth. Various kinds of rare and precious spiritual medicines and natural treasures can be easily obtained. Therefore, the average strength of the cultivators at that time was much stronger than it is now. There were many overlords who dominated a continent or even a big world.

The Taoist Hongmeng Temple founded by Meng Feiyu herself was an outstanding one among them. In its heyday, it once controlled an entire world on its own.

"Which big world does the Qingyao Continent we are in belong to? Are there other big worlds around?"

Ling Changqing asked thoughtfully.

The Feiyu Sea alone is large enough, and the vastness of Yuzhou is obvious to all. However, it is just an inconspicuous medium-sized state on the Qingyao Continent.

So Ling Changqing was indeed curious about how big the world he had descended into was and whether there were other big worlds around it.

"This world, in the era I lived in, was called Xingyuan World. It had fifteen continents, and Qingyao Continent was just one of them."

Meng Feiyu explained: "As for the surroundings of Xingyuan World, there are an unknown number of affiliated cave worlds, and further out are many ancient stars..."

Those stars are also vast and majestic worlds, and on some of them, there are countless living beings reproducing and multiplying.

Beyond the stars in the sky is the boundless, dangerous and unpredictable chaotic void.

In such an extremely terrifying and dangerous place, not to mention ordinary cultivators, even immortals would be in danger of dying if they set foot there.

According to legend, there are other big worlds deep in the chaotic void. Some of these big worlds have also evolved extremely powerful civilizations, but no one has witnessed them with their own eyes.

"...I have been to the Chaos Void several times in the past and found some opportunities, but it is really dangerous. Anyway, I don't want to try it again before my cultivation is restored!"

Meng Feiyu spoke softly.

"Forget it. There's no need to think about such far-flung things now."

Ling Changqing collected his thoughts, hugged the beauty in his arms and kissed her. Before he cultivated himself into an immortal, these stories were just for reference.

Meng Feiyu's eyes were as charming as silk, and she turned over and pressed him down: "Husband, let's practice again. When I'm with you, I find that I always think of more things."

In the long run, she felt that her cultivation and memory would recover faster, and she would have enough power to change her fate.

The opportunity to live again is hard to come by and must be cherished, especially since she had never had a Taoist partner in her previous life, and now that she has met Ling Changqing in this life, she naturally cherishes it very much.

After a day and a night, Ling Changqing got up from bed, feeling refreshed, and took a nice hot spring bath with Meng Feiyu.

Then the couple packed up and dressed, and went out hand in hand.

Tang Qiuyao, gorgeous and graceful in a bright yellow dress embroidered with a phoenix, was already waiting outside.

"Are you here? Let's go, then?"

This stunningly beautiful woman said with a smile on her face.

It had been agreed two days ago that Ling Changqing would go to the deep sea with them to practice today and look for various resources at the same time.

With the strength at the Jindan level, one can at least walk around the Feiyu Sea with ease.

Even if they go to the deep sea, under the suppression of Ling Changqing's supreme luck, the probability of accidents will be reduced to an extremely low level.

The three of them boarded the flying boat together and flew towards the sea off Changqing Island.

"By the way, are you really not going to check that place out? I remember that it was once the remains of an ancient battlefield, and there should be good stuff in there."

In the cabin, Meng Feiyu spoke to the two of them.

She was talking about the partial memory she had recovered, which contained the remains of an ancient battlefield located deep in the ocean, where countless high-level monks’ lives were buried.

Ling Changqing shook his head slightly: "It's too long ago. God knows what happened there. We are not strong enough now. Let's wait and see!"

This level of opportunity is not something that can be expected now. At least he has to wait until he breaks through to the Nascent Soul True Lord stage before he can consider it.

"That's fine. We can't wait too long anyway."

Meng Feiyu no longer insisted.

After several hours, the flying boat began to lower its altitude and entered the sea at the area selected by Ling Changqing. The three of them each took out their magic weapons and dived into the deep sea.

"Why don't we go to the bottom of the ocean six hundred feet below this time? Maybe we'll find something different."

Ling Changqing said that this was something he learned on the spot and calculated using the secret method of deducing the secrets of heaven.

The two women naturally had no objection and held him on both sides, with the Beacon Cloud Bell hanging above their heads, and a thick light curtain separating them from the cold sea water.

This magical weapon with considerable defensive power was lent to him by Ling Qiyue. With his level of cultivation, he can already unleash its full power.

As the depth of the sea water continued to increase, a layer of light silver light curtain quietly emerged from Ling Changqing's body, further pushing away the sea water outside.

This is a magical power of controlling water derived from the Taixuan Cangming Roushui Jue, which can extract the essence of sunflower water in the sea to form a tough protective shield.

Ling Changqing silently practiced his mental skills, and with him as the center, an undercurrent vortex with a diameter of more than a hundred feet quietly formed and slowly rotated.

A giant deep-sea python with ghost eyes was unable to dodge and was trapped in the whirlpool, unable to escape, and could only struggle in vain.

Tang Qiuyao raised her hand and a sharp sword energy swept across, cutting the ferocious beast, which was more than ten feet long and had delicious meat, into two pieces. The huge python head struggled weakly.

Meng Feiyu also took action. A layer of azure black ice quickly condensed, sealing the giant python's body inside, and then she put it into her storage bag.

The meat of this second-level sea beast is very valuable, and it is also very good for replenishing essence, blood and vitality, so it is perfect to take it back as food.

Ling Changqing smiled with satisfaction. Compared to when he was building his foundation, the power of Taixuan Cangming Roushui Jue had made a qualitative leap and began to demonstrate the power that a earth-grade martial arts book should have.

As he dived all the way down, faint wisps of light emerged from the depths of the whirlpool from time to time, turning into countless light spots and merging into Ling Changqing's body.

The faint light is the mysterious water essence in the ocean, which has the magical effect of moistening and nourishing all things.

Ling Changqing discovered that after he became a Jindan Zhenren, the amount of Xuanshui Yuanjing he absorbed and refined per unit time was nearly ten times that of when he was at the peak of the foundation building stage.

This means that his cultivation level will increase at a rate more than ten times faster than that of cultivators of the same level. Over time, it will be possible for him to catch up with Ling Qiyue's progress.
