Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 135: Birth, Old Age, Sickness and Death, the Four Mysteries
Li Tianhan's voice was loud, and the monks below the stage could hear it clearly.

But he was famous, and none of the monks present had the desire to challenge him.

Jiang Liqian's face was hidden under the veil, but she was slightly relieved.

"Fortunately, these two people did not choose the disease door, otherwise it would be a lot of trouble..."

Jiang Liqian looked at the other three people under the stage and looked much more relaxed.

At this time, a monk finally couldn't help it and stepped onto the stage.

"I am Murong Wuhui from the Murong family in Wangyue City. I hope you fellow Taoists will give me some face..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, a cultivator jumped onto the stage.

"Oh, what Murong family? I've never heard of them! Today, the competition is all about strength!"

After dozens of rounds of fighting, Murong Wuhui had his left arm cut off and he left the ring with resentment on his face.

The winning monk was also slightly injured. He took out a pill and swallowed it, then said:
"I am..."

"Haha, brother, you are a little too impatient... My Wenlu Academy is also very interested in the third level of Jin Yuan Gong!"

Young Master Qingzhu jumped onto the stage and easily defeated him in just a few rounds...

At this moment, Jiang Liqian was the only one left under the stage.

She stepped onto the ring without hesitation.

Young Master Qingzhu looked at Jiang Liqian for a few times and said with a little interest:

"My fellow Taoist, where did you learn from?"

Jiang Liqian did not answer, but said:

"You can't get through the sick door, and you are no match for me, go down..."

Upon hearing this, Master Qingzhu frowned and asked:
"Fellow Daoist, do you know the mysteries of the four gates of birth, aging, sickness and death?"

After hearing this, even Li Tianhan and the ghost-eyed boy looked over.

The information they obtained only included the contents of the four levels, and that among the four levels of birth, aging, sickness and death, the "Gate of Life" was the most impossible to pass.

But I don't know what each door means...

Jiang Liqian glanced at the few people and frowned slightly.

At this point, there was no need for her to hide anything anymore.

“Although the Jinyuan Sect is only the remains of a Nascent Soul Sect… it is said to have inherited half of the Divine Transformation Stage, so it is far superior to the foundation of ordinary Nascent Soul Sects.”

"There are four gates: birth, aging, illness and death. Of these, the gate of death... naturally one must die once and abandon the physical body before one can pass through..."

Jiang Liqian glanced at the ghost-eyed boy.

With his identity as a ghost cultivator, he has a good chance of passing through the Death Gate.

"The old sect is fighting a very scary ghost. The magic this monster casts can rob people of their lifespan and accelerate aging..."

"We must kill all these monsters before we die of old age."

Li Tianhan did not show much emotion after hearing this.

His divine thunder can defeat evil spirits, and he is never afraid of fighting.

"As for the disease..."

Jiang Liqian paused, looked at Master Qingzhu and said:
"You have to endure hundreds of diseases and ignore all your cultivation... Even a Yuanying cultivator can't get through it!"

"I think you won't be able to get through it with your perseverance."

After hearing this, Master Qingzhu's face looked a little ugly.

He had no confidence in passing any of these three doors.

But he still didn't want to give up, so he asked back:

"Then fellow Taoist...how sure are you that you chose this disease?"

Jiang Liqian was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said:
"This is my secret, it's not convenient to tell..."

Jiang Liqian possesses an ancestral disease-healing bead that makes her immune to all diseases.

She was 99% sure that she could get through this illness...

As for the other three subjects, she had no confidence at all.

Especially...the gate of life!
After hearing this, Master Qingzhu's expression became even uglier.

But he still gritted his teeth and said:
"Young lady, please don't look down on me... I, Young Master Qingzhu, am quite famous in Qingzhou."

"There is no point in talking any more, let's see what's really going on!"

Jiang Liqian sighed and nodded slightly when he heard this.

……

A moment later, Young Master Qingzhu rolled off the stage in a mess.

Jiang Liqian tidied up her slightly messy hair and stood steadily on the stage.

"You, your true essence cultivation... is simply not something a foundation-building cultivator can possess!"

"You...you are also breaking the elixir and starting over?"

Young Master Qingzhu looked incredulous.

Jiang Liqian remained silent upon hearing this and did not answer.

She is indeed not an ordinary foundation-building cultivator...

Because of her, she has practiced the third level of Golden Yuan Gong!

Unfortunately...it's just a fragment.

Therefore, she knows more about the power of the third level of Golden Yuan Gong than others...

The purpose of her trip was to obtain the third level of the Three Levels of Golden Yuan Gong...

Seeing that Jiang Liqian ignored him, Master Qingzhu had no choice but to take the reward and finally left the ruins in shame.

At this point, there were only three people left on the stage.

Jiang Liqian, Li Tianhan and...the ghost-eyed boy!
At this time, the ghost-eyed boy and Li Tianhan looked at Jiang Liqian in surprise.

You know, Young Master Qingzhu is no rookie.

That person is also a famous genius in Qingzhou...

Although he is not as good as the first-tier geniuses like Li Tianhan, he is also a top genius.

But even so, Young Master Qingzhu didn't last more than a few dozen rounds at the hands of Jiang Liqian.

Even Jiang Liqian wasn't injured...

"Tsk tsk, when did so many monsters appear in Qingzhou..."

"First there was Xu Shi, and this mysterious woman in front of us is no ordinary person either!"

Li Tianhan muttered.

At the same time, he asked with some doubt:

"Fellow Daoist, you only mentioned the three gates of aging, illness and death before... I wonder what the content of the assessment of the gate of life is?"

Jiang Liqian pursed her lips upon hearing this, and finally said:

"The content of the Life Gate's assessment is... practicing the third level of the Golden Yuan Technique!"

Upon hearing this, Li Tianhan and Guimu Tongzi were stunned.

The assessment content is to practice the Three Revolutions of Golden Yuan Gong, doesn’t that mean there is no assessment?

Jiang Liqian saw through their thoughts.

However, the three of them each chose their own arena, so there is no competition between them.

Jiang Liqian simply explained it clearly.

“Although it is the gate of life, it is actually the gate of death!”

"Because the assessment content of Shengmen is to practice the third level of Jinyuan Gong to perfection within five years... and successfully break through to the Jindan stage!"

"If you fail... you will be killed!"

After hearing this, Li Tianhan and Guimu Tongzi's faces changed drastically.

What is the Three Turns of Golden Yuan Gong?
In fact, it is a special method of breaking pills...

Those who practice the Three Revolutions of Golden Yuan Gong need to break the elixir once every time they reach the elixir formation stage.

Every time the pill is broken, one must disperse the power and start over, falling back to the first level of Qi Refining...

A total of three revisions, improving the quality of the golden elixir by three grades!

Although the speed after dispersing the power and re-cultivating is much faster than before.

But...how can one break the pill and rebuild it three times in just five years?

After hearing Jiang Liqian's explanation, Li Tianhan and Guimu Tongzi fell silent.

"If this is true, then this gate of life is really no different from the gate of death..."

The ghost-eyed boy whispered.

As a former Jindan cultivator, he knew the difficulty of losing his power and starting over...

At the same time, a cold voice was heard from the square.

"Congratulations to the three of you for passing the fourth level... Please follow the order of the arena and enter the three gates of illness, old age and death..."

As soon as he finished speaking, three gates about ten feet high appeared on the stone walls surrounding the square.

The three big characters "Sickness, Old Age and Death" were engraved on the door.

Jiang Liqian and others entered the corresponding doors respectively.

boom!
As the three gates fell to the ground, a heavy sound was heard, which also indicated that the opening of the ruins had finally come to an end...

……

In the closed room for the third round of assessment.

After thinking it over, Lin Chen said, "I choose the life gate!"

As Lin Chen finished speaking, a large door appeared on the stone wall, with new words engraved on it.

Lin Chen did not have much information about the ruins of Jin Yuanzong.

But from the four words "birth, old age, sickness and death", he couldn't help but choose life...

But Lin Chen did not rush into the room.

He glanced at the scattered puppet parts at his feet.

After picking it up and examining it carefully, Lin Chen muttered:

"This puppet is made of excellent materials, and its strength is terrifying..."

"These foreign metals alone probably weigh no less than a hundred tons...there's no reason not to take them away!"

So, Lin Chen put the parts of these puppets into several nano bags, and then stuffed them all into the purple jade gourd.

"Also, the stone walls and floor of this room don't seem to be made of ordinary metal..."

Lin Chen used the earth escape technique, scraping the ground three feet deep and putting the entire floor beneath his feet into the nano bag.

But after he tried to remove the stone slabs on the wall, he frowned slightly.

"There seems to be a special protective formation on this stone wall... It can't be dismantled!"

After trying for a long time, Lin Chen gave up reluctantly.

"Alas, what a pity these stone walls..."

Lin Chen smacked his lips, but he wasn't too greedy.

Those puppets and the high-level ores on the floor alone were much more than what he had obtained in the oasis ruins before.

Lin Chen probed into the purple jade gourd with his spiritual sense, looking at the dozen full nano bags, and exclaimed:
"I really made a fortune coming to the ruins this time!" "Tsk tsk, this combination of purple jade gourd and nano bag is really useful..."

Theoretically, as long as there are enough nano bags, Lin Chen's storage space is unlimited...

Coincidentally, although nano bags are very precious, Lin Chen still has dozens of them in his purple jade gourd.

It was enough for him to hold countless treasures...

"Next, it's the fourth level of assessment..."

"Birth, aging, sickness and death, the gate of life... Is the third level of Golden Yuan Gong behind this door?"

Lin Chen didn't think too much about it. After his physical strength was almost restored, he stepped into the gate of life...

boom!
As Lin Chen entered the gate of life, the heavy door fell straight down...

……

After entering the gate of life, Lin Chen squinted and looked around.

This is a small secret room, only about three meters in radius.

In the center of the chamber is a raised stone platform.

Lin Chen walked closer and saw three objects placed on the stone platform.

Two jade slips and a blue gourd.

"This gourd..."

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows and took out the purple jade gourd for comparison.

The scents on the two gourds are similar, but the patterns and colors are different.

"This gourd is actually from the same lineage as Ziyu?"

Lin Chen was slightly surprised.

"That's not right! Although the master said there are seven gourds in total, when the master traveled, he found..."

"But the Jinyuan Sect was destroyed thousands of years ago. Something in this world doesn't make sense..."

Lin Chen was a little confused, but didn't think about it too much.

He picked up two jade slips.

A jade slip with a voice record and a jade slip containing a technique.

Lin Chen's spiritual sense probed into the jade slip, and soon a voice came into Lin Chen's mind.

"I am Jin Yuan Zhenren. When I was young, I detected the dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, and embarked on the path of cultivating immortals."

"At the age of sixteen, he entered the Qi Refining Stage."

"At the age of twenty, I cultivated to perfection in Qi Refining, and I had a chance encounter with a perfect foundation-building pill, which enabled me to achieve a perfect foundation-building..."

"At the age of fifty, I entered the stage of perfect foundation building. I went through untold hardships to obtain the Jinyuan Pill formula, hoping to obtain the Golden Pill."

"But I know that my talent is mediocre, and the lower-grade golden elixir is already the limit... But I was not willing to accept this, so I traveled thousands of miles and studied hard, and finally created the third-level golden essence skill and condensed the seventh-grade golden elixir."

"One hundred and eighty years old, entering the Golden Core Stage..."

"After four hundred years, the baby is finally born."

"But I know that my talent is at the limit of the Nascent Soul stage and I can't make any further progress. I don't want the mediocre cultivators in the world to be like me."

“So he founded the Jinyuan Sect, which has been passed down for a thousand years, and helped the cultivators of the world to find a way to defy fate and change their destiny, so as to glimpse the realm of transformation…”

"For thousands of years, I have never achieved my wish..."

Hearing this, Lin Chen raised his eyebrows.

The owner of this jade slip is actually Jin Yuan Zhenren, who created the Three Turns of Jin Yuan Gong.

A great monk in the Nascent Soul stage!

But it is just a dual spiritual root...

This recorded message roughly talks about Master Jin Yuan's wishes and his life.

“Tsk tsk, to be able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage with the talent of dual spiritual roots, and even to create such a heaven-defying technique as the Three-Turn Golden Yuan Gong… Master Jin Yuan can be regarded as a remarkable person of that era!”

Lin Chen sighed slightly.

The second half of the voicemail came to my ears again.

“But I know in my heart that even the most powerful sect will eventually fall, including my Jinyuan Sect.”

"That's why I set up the Life Gate, which is also the most difficult of the four gates... Since you can choose this gate, you must be confident enough in your talent!"

"My dear friend, there is no enemy in this level. Your only enemy is yourself..."

"You need to complete the third level of Jin Yuan Gong and break through to the Jindan stage within five years, otherwise..."

Lin Chen listened to this silently and carefully, with a strange look on his face.

"This Jin Yuan Zhenren is really cruel! If he doesn't complete the third level of Jin Yuan Gong, will he be buried with this relic?"

Lin Chen was somewhat speechless. He had really stumbled into this most difficult level by accident...

Logically speaking, anyone who breaks into this level should be able to obtain information about the four gates of birth, aging, sickness and death, but Lin Chen has no idea at all!

"Ah, but the reward is generous enough..."

"If you pass this level, can you inherit all of Jin Yuanzong's inheritance?"

Lin Chen touched his chin.

In five years, he cultivated three times and finally reached the Golden Core Stage...

This is almost impossible.

But for Lin Chen, it is not impossible...

Because he has double the time, other people's five years is ten years for him!
Plus the speed of the Soul Devouring Spiritual Root's cultivation...

"Five years seems a bit too much!"

Lin Chen's eyes were full of confidence.

"But, I still have to keep some backup plans..."

Lin Chen tried to use the earth escape technique.

After a long time, Lin Chen's face looked a little ugly.

This secret room is completely filled with array formations, leaving no blind spots...

In other words, Lin Chen had no way to leave this secret room.

"Shit, am I really going to have to practice boringly in this secret room for the next five years?"

"No... I just need to cultivate the third level of Golden Yuan Gong to perfection..."

Even so, Lin Chen's expression still looked somewhat ugly.

"But fortunately, I can still go back to Blue Star every seven days..."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there is no time limit for practice, most practitioners are accustomed to the boring practice.

But Lin Chen is different!

He has only been practicing for three years...

If he were to stay in this secret room for five years, what would be the difference between that and being in jail?
"Bad news, you're going to jail for five years..."

"Good news. There are vacation days in prison. You get seven days off every seven days..."

"Better news, if you behave well you may even get your sentence reduced..."

Lin Chen complained wildly in his heart.

"However, the most urgent thing is to practice diligently first..."

Lin Chen took a deep breath and probed into the third level of Golden Yuan Gong with his spiritual sense.

After a moment, Lin Chen sighed slightly:

“I have to say, this damn thing does have some talent… This third level of Golden Yuan Gong can take away the good fortune of heaven and earth. It is indeed a heaven-defying martial art!”

“Although I have to re-cultivate three times, with the blessing of the third level of Golden Yuan Gong, my cultivation speed has increased a lot…”

"In this case, even five years won't be needed..."

Lin Chen spent some time memorizing the practice routes and key points of the Three Revolutions of Golden Yuan Gong.

Then he looked at the blue jade gourd.

When Lin Chen’s spiritual sense probed into the gourd, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

I saw that the gourd was filled with enough spirit stones to pile up like a mountain. After scanning with my divine sense, I found that there were probably no less than a million of them.

There were also bottles of elixirs, no less than a thousand in number.

Lin Chen took out several bottles of pills and found that there were several kinds of pills in total.

Bigu Pills, Qi-boosting Pills, Foundation-building Pills, Qingyuan Pills and Jinyuan Pills!
Every kind of elixir was of excellent quality, and there were even several bottles of Foundation Building Pills and Golden Yuan Pills of perfect quality...

"My goodness, this Jin Yuanzi really wants people to practice in this secret room for a few years!"

Lin Chen smacked his lips. Apart from anything else, the resources needed to rebuild it three times were more than enough.

"Alas, there is no better way at the moment..."

Lin Chen was somewhat unwilling to give up and tried to break the formation again, but still gained nothing.

This formation is so strong that even a Nascent Soul cultivator cannot break it...

"Since we are here, let's make the best of it and rebuild it..."

Lin Chen shook his head and decided to be trapped in this secret room for a few years.

"I just don't know what the situation outside will be like in a few years... I still have to practice as soon as possible!"

Thinking of this, Lin Chen no longer hesitated, sat cross-legged and began to practice.

For the next three days, Lin Chen adjusted his breath and state.

His cultivation had already reached the perfection of foundation building, and he was only one step away from the golden elixir.

"I don't know, with my qualifications... what quality of golden elixir can I condense?"

Lin Chen felt a little excited and took out tens of thousands of spirit stones and placed them beside him.

Then prepare for the first Dan formation.

As the Soul-Devouring Root absorbed spiritual energy crazily, the spiritual energy provided by the surrounding spirit stones was continuously absorbed into the Dantian.

In the Dantian, the perfect foundation-building platform also began to change.

On the pill platform, the true essence slowly condensed and gradually became the shape of a pill.

When it was first condensed, the pill was only light gold in color.

But as the true essence continued to merge into Lin Chen's dantian, the gold color of the golden elixir became more and more dazzling.

An hour later, the first dan pattern appeared on the golden elixir.

Deep and beautiful.

The elixir above the golden elixir is the first-grade golden elixir...which is also the weakest quality of the golden elixir.

Lin Chen seemed very relaxed and began to condense the second Dan pattern.

Two, three, four...

Six Paths, Seven Paths…

In the blink of an eye, a day and a night passed.

Lin Chen looked inward with his soul and saw that the eight lines on the round golden elixir were vivid...

"Sure enough, the second stage of the Soul Devouring Spiritual Root plus the perfect foundation building can only condense the eighth grade golden elixir?"
