This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 170: Using formulas to solve problems faster
The foundation-building period is roughly divided into the small Zhoutian and the big Zhoutian, and subdivided into the initial entry into foundation-building, the intersection of yin and yang, the release of true qi, the protection of the body by the Gangqi, and the half-step peak perfection.

Xiang Yuan's current situation was a bit awkward. Others opened the Qi points first, and gradually explored the principles of releasing true Qi and protecting the body with strong Qi. He, however, did the opposite, and was sharpening his knife desperately just to catch up with the Qi points that were constantly opening in front of him.

Because it happens too fast, theoretical knowledge only exists in theory, and there is no practical experience and lessons to summarize, which lays hidden dangers and will cause great losses in the future.

Xiang Yuan expressed his worries, and Chan'er frowned and said disdainfully: "The innate is the great way, why bother with the appearance of the protective qi? It's not worth it to lose the big picture for the small. You shouldn't be so stupid."

"You can't say that."

Xiang Yuan hummed twice, bringing out the calm and painstakingly honed White Tiger Qi.

I saw the Qi points all over his body opened up, and true Qi was released, and a layer of invisible Qi shield enveloped his whole body.

It is white in color and shaped like a tiger, with strong and powerful limbs, a huge and majestic body, eyes as sharp as knives, and light-colored lines that add a bit of wildness and domineering. The roar of a tiger in the mountains seems real, and its domineering and majestic posture is extremely visually shocking.

Ordinary protective qi can withstand all kinds of powerful attacks. No matter whether it is a sword or a qi impact, they cannot easily penetrate this layer of qi shield.

The means Xiang Yuan obtained from the Dragon Subduing Realm, the condensed tiger energy can not only defend, but also carry out physical attacks. It is not a superficial attack of Qianyuan Realm, but like a tiger, whether it is roaring or pouncing, the fangs and claws can kill the enemy.

Furthermore, the tiger's eyes are full of spirit, and with the power of the primordial spirit to kill, they have endless uses.

After Xiang Yuan demonstrated it briefly, Chaner's eyes widened. Thinking of his own protective energy of the Full Moon posture, he suddenly felt that he was not capable of showing it off.

Moreover, she had cooperated with Xiao Lingyue before and witnessed his method of transforming clouds into dragons. There are white dragons and white tigers, but what about white phoenixes? Is there really a white phoenix?

So what should she, a white turtle, do?
His little face was blank, and when he thought of the image of himself with a turtle shell on his head, he felt sick all over.

"How about it? Does Uncle Xiang's method count as one of the great ways?"

"Hmph, that's all."

How could Chaner let Xiang Yuan get complacent? He raised a finger and said, "It's just a small insect. I can kill it with the power of the innate way with a flick of my finger."

"Yeah, Zen is amazing!"

Xiang Yuan said sarcastically, "I was thinking that if Chaner wanted to learn, as long as he said something nice and Uncle Xiang was kind, he would teach you the method of refining the energy and transforming it into a human form. Now it seems that I was being too sentimental. Chaner has the innate great way and would not look down on my inferior method."

"Creak, creak, creak!"

Chaner gritted her teeth in hatred. What's the big deal? Whether you want to teach her or not, she doesn't want to learn.

"I'll ask Senior Sister Bailong some other day. If she wants, I'll teach her." Xiang Yuan said, touching his chin.

"Just give it to her if she wants it?" Zener raised his voice.

"She insisted."

"You will give it to her if she insists on it?"

What else do you want after you wear them?
Xiang Yuan complained in his heart, knowing that Chan'er didn't like Xiao Lingyue, he didn't expect such a big reaction, and shrugged: "I created the method of refining Gangqi by myself, I am happy with it."

"Creak, creak, creak!"

Chaner took two steps forward, lifted Xiangyuan's collar, and bit the tooth mark.

After a while, she was full and couldn't eat any more, so she let go of Xiang Yuan and said coldly: "Tell me the method of refining the inner energy, and exchange it for this opportunity."

Xiang Yuan did not refuse and told the method of condensing Gang Qi truthfully.

Chaner waved her hand, a white light swept across the earth, and sixteen chains surrounded her and wrapped her and Xiang Yuan, slowly sinking into the earth.

On the other side, Senior Zhuang began to dig a hole.

Underground, the walls surrounded by white light chains shone brightly. Xiang Yuan and Chan'er sat cross-legged facing each other, asking and answering questions as they discussed the method of condensing Qi.

Zen'er's realm is even higher, and he is only one step away from reaching the state of spiritual enlightenment. Any of his insights into the principles of heaven and earth that he has understood are all Xiang Yuan's blind spots in knowledge.

Knowing more and thinking further, when Chaner got the method of condensing Gangqi, the first thing that came to his mind was to integrate the laws of heaven and earth into the Gangqi. After all, the innate is the great way, so how can we lose sight of the important and pursue the trivial?

She had thought about it and tried it before, but since no one in the Qianyuan Realm was stupid enough to cultivate the protective qi during the foundation-building period, there were serious omissions in details. She had no reference and was unwilling to waste time, so she gave up after several failures.

Now that I have obtained the complete method of condensing the Gang Qi, referring to what I have learned, I try to merge the moonlight and the Gang Qi into one. It is like an epiphany, and I immediately have a lot of ideas.

Xiang Yuan looked at the changing phases of the moon in front of him. It was like a dream, so beautiful that it seemed unreal. He couldn't help but sigh that the world is unpredictable and both good and evil are playing with contrasts.

Nun Bai Yue's play on contrast makes people's blood boil, while Zener's play on contrast makes her like a fairy on the moon, ethereal and elegant, with a beauty that is not stained by a trace of dust.

Xiao Lingyue explained very clearly about Chan'er's fundamental skills. It was absolutely true that he was a disciple of the Silver Moon Palace and there was no doubt about it.

Master Lingguang has forgotten whether there is a fundamental skill exclusive to the Saint in Huangquan Road, and there is no relevant record in the memory fragments. However, based on the fact that the Saint has been reincarnated for many lifetimes and can retrieve the memories of her previous lives in each lifetime, it can be analyzed that there should be a set of exclusive skills.

If that's the case, why did Chan'er switch to practicing the Silver Moon Palace's method...

Could it be that each reincarnation has a different method of cultivation, combining the strengths of hundreds of schools, and in the final life, all nine reincarnations return to one?

Xiang Yuan was lost in thought. Seeing that Chan'er had entered a state of trance in his practice and was completely defenseless, he had no intention of letting him go. He had no choice but to step on the accelerator with tears in his eyes and start to flush the acupoints using the Wuxiang Seal Method.

It would be a shame not to practice with so much time.

There was no view of the sky below. An unknown amount of time had passed before Chaner finished his practice and slowly woke up. Perhaps because of too many bad things that happened before, he subconsciously looked at his collar the moment he opened his eyes.

It's so pitiful. It's become a habit.

Seeing that Xiang Yuan was practicing honestly and didn't make any noise to disturb him, Chan'er snorted softly, secretly thinking that he was sensible, and hoped that the dog would keep up the good work. The faster the tail wagged, the more bones he would get.

Xiang Yuan practiced diligently, but Chan'er was not. The practice just now had exhausted all his external supplements, so he stepped forward, bent over, and leaned on Xiang Yuan's shoulder to start taking supplements.

The posture was too intimate and defenseless, as if the whole person was sitting in Xiang Yuan's arms.

Who is he? He is making a lot of noise and not sleeping at night. It doesn’t matter whether his neighbors go to work tomorrow, but he has to get up early to practice swordplay like someone else!
Xiang Yuan woke up with a frown. His hands were faster than his eyes. He didn't see who was in his arms and subconsciously patted his butt.

"..." x2
Snapped!
On the ground, the silver-white chains broke free from the seal, and Chaner stood there with a cold face. Behind him was Xiang Yuan, who looked like a human with a righteous expression.

It would be better if there wasn't a red slap mark on the face.

"Uncle Xiang, the one with the highest level of cultivation here is the Five Poison Sect's elder Shi Chengshan. He has just entered the Xiantian stage and has not had time to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth..."

Zener explained the situation of the sacrificial site a hundred miles away, and asked him to seize the opportunity to obtain the poison pool medicine and kill Shi Chengshan.

This place of sacrifice was discovered by Chaner when he was digging holes to practice. He felt that the Five Poison Sect was playing with something very novel, so he did not disturb them out of curiosity about the results. Now that the time is right, he uses it to feed Xiang Yuan.

When she raises a dog, she either doesn't feed it or feeds it the best, so that its fur can be shiny and bright. Xiang Yuan frowned slightly. Qianyuan Realm is not the world of no life. The laws of heaven and earth are perfect, and the methods of the innate stage are more sophisticated. He is not sure whether he can kill Shi Chengshan.

However, due to his confidence in his own strength, he did not feel timid.

Whether you can win or not, just fight first and see.

Once upon a time, killing enemies across levels seemed out of reach to Xiang Yuan. The difference in realms was like a chasm that could not be crossed. If it wasn't possible, it was impossible, no matter how much external force was used.

With many opportunities and brilliant achievements, he became more and more confident in his own abilities. The sky cleared up, the rain stopped, and he felt that he was able to do it again.

What is the difference between a person in the innate stage who has no protection from the laws of heaven and earth and a person who has reached the peak of perfection in the foundation-building stage?
He had killed several people in the innate stage before, and his strength was stronger than that of the innate. Shi Chengshan did not understand the laws of heaven and earth, and his strength was equal to that of the foundation. After rounding it off, it was clear that he had a greater realm advantage than someone else.

Building foundation to the far > Xiantian = Xiantian;

Xiantian Shi Chengshan = building foundation < Xiantian;

Xiantian Xiangyuan>Laying the foundation at Shi Chengshan.

The faster you solve problems, the quicker it is to use formulas to get the answers!

After confirming that Shi Chengshan was doomed, Xiang Yuan asked for the exact coordinates of the Five Poison Sect's sacrificial site, and set off with Senior Zhuang.

He really is still so cautious.

Zener waved his hand and bound Senior Zombie with chains. He said expressionlessly, "This zombie has too many flaws. At your pace of three days of fishing and two days of drying the net, I don't know when you can complete it. Leave it here and I will help you refine it."

Chan'er originally wanted to make a quick decision, but because of that blow on her butt, she changed her mind and didn't want to act with Xiang Yuan. The reason for detaining Senior Zhuang was simple. In her explanation, the dog didn't know the rules and needed to be taught a lesson.

As for guiding Senior Zhuang in Moonlight's cultivation, it was even easier. Xiang Yuan had a sharp tongue, and it would be prestigious for her to take him out for a stroll.

She understood everything.

"Isn't it just a touch on my butt? It's not like I haven't touched it before. God split my butt in two just so that you can let me touch one half..."

Xiang Yuan whispered to himself, "This evil woman is so mean that she is still fussy about it even after I slapped her in the face."

Dare you next time!

He walked away while muttering to himself, using his Thirteen Transformations of Yin Feng Gui Mist to disappear into the forest like a ghost.

Little Sesame Mountain.

There are many mountains in southern Xinjiang, stretching in countless directions, but the mountains are gentle and there are few high mountains or strange peaks. The dangerous parts are the strange rocks and valleys, dense forests, poisonous miasma and poisonous insects everywhere.

Like the small sesame mountain in front of us, the hillside is not very undulating. Compared with the majestic mountains and rivers in Western Chu, it is quite ordinary, except that there are two more ups and downs on the flat ground.

Because of the activities of the Five Poison Sect, poisonous insects, snakes and ants can be seen everywhere.

Xiang Yuan had seen the methods of the Five Poison Sect and knew that some poisonous insects looked ordinary, but they were actually poisonous insects, and they had a telepathic connection with their masters. It was like installing a surveillance camera, and if a thief broke into it, his whereabouts would soon be exposed.

He did not rush in rashly, but hid himself in a small path, ambushed in the grass, and waited for several traveling merchants with bags on their backs.

Where did these traveling merchants come from in such a remote place? They must be smugglers from Texas.

Xiang Yuan followed quietly and quickly gained the trust of several traveling merchants with his outstanding personal charm. When they asked them, it turned out to be true.

The Five Poison Sect is notorious in Texas. In southern Xinjiang where many evil people gather, they can only be considered lower in the food chain. It is not easy to support their family, so they just do the smuggling business.

There is a trade route between Southern Xinjiang and Western Chu. Ninety percent of the goods on the market in Western Chu can be dumped in Southern Xinjiang at low prices, squeezing out local suppliers. Western Chu can then reorganize the market and redefine industry standards.

This is what overcapacity looks like, and with free trade, it doesn’t hurt.

Xi Chu's strategy of attacking Southern Xinjiang is being carried out all the time, but not all goods will be unconditionally dumped at low prices, such as elixirs, which are very difficult to obtain.

When there is demand in the market, naturally a group of people will jump out to meet the demand. The Five Poisons Sect is the best example.

The Five Poison Sect takes the path of having a large number of people and strong power. The top-level combat power is limited, and there are as many middle and low-level warriors as needed. The funds allocated from above are limited, so those below must find ways to make money on their own.

Smuggling elixirs that were prohibited from export by Xi Chu not only satisfied his own cultivation needs, but also provided an opportunity to earn a profit from the price difference as a middleman. Gradually, the smuggling chain became stabilized.

According to several traveling merchants, who were disciples of the Five Poison Sect, they were responsible for purchasing elixirs and spiritual herbs in Xi Chu and transporting them to the site of sacrifice, but they had no idea what their specific purpose was.

After some questioning from Xiang Yuan, he picked out a black-faced man who had done all kinds of bad things, took him into the grove nearby, and let him taste the sweet and delicious corpse powder.

After a while, the group of traveling merchants continued to move forward.

Along the way, Xiang Yuan asked a lot of questions to ensure that his identity was correct and he could answer the questions fluently.

He has always been able to go undercover.

The next day, the team arrived at a deep valley in the shade of Xiaozhima Mountain. The place was filled with poisonous miasma, and poisonous snakes hid in the cracks of the stone walls. The fog obscured the area, making it difficult to see what was going on from the outside.

The team stopped where they were, and after about an incense stick of time, the mist in front of them dissipated without wind, and more than a dozen disciples of the Five Poison Sect dressed in the characteristic costumes of southern Xinjiang walked out.

The leader was a woman, about thirty years old, with a graceful figure and in the prime of life. Xiang Yuan knew her.

Yin Mu!

Xiang Yuan had no impression of this name, but he remembered this face clearly. On the fifteenth of that year, he was standing like a minion by the Nushui River, being chased by Yin Mu. He had no way to escape and was forced to seek refuge in the Yama Gate.

When he first joined Yanfumen, Xiang Yuan was still a calm and steady young man, not as funny and audacious as he is now.

At that time, he was walking on thin ice everywhere. He didn't know when he could reach the other side. He didn't know what was behind the Yama Gate, so he was unwilling to enter no matter what.

With the help of Yin Mu, he bravely stepped into the Yama Gate, starting from the low-level martial arts world and walked step by step to the present.

Shen Wen: Without her, I would not have achieved what I have today. I am afraid that I will never be able to repay her for her kindness even in my next life. What should I do?

Doubi: That’s simple. She died in an accident, so there’s no need to report it.

Cold-blooded: The accident is too far away, we have to seize the day, I will kill her!
A great favor is a great hatred. After Xiang Yuan's three thoughts, they all agreed to send Yin Mu off.
