Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 740 Teaching Disciples, Second Core Formation

Watching Sheng Bo'an transform into lightning and disappear into the distance, leaving only the lingering fragrance of medicine in the Xuanling Longevity Palace.

With a pale face, Fang Yi stepped into the medicinal field as a blue light emanated from beneath his feet.

"A third-tier spiritual healer uses the [Great Physician Diagnosis Method] to consume his own essence to make up for the cultivator's deficiencies. This can be described as selfless, but it will damage his foundation."

"Relying on the wonders of the [Scripture of Life, Death, Withering and Flourishing], my origin remains intact, but my vital energy has been severely damaged. I need to replenish the damage quickly to prevent the injury from worsening and depleting my original essence over time."

Above the thick soil, a thin mist of earth energy flowed gently from the well, nourishing the spiritual plants along the paths of the spiritual fields.

The Jade Heart Orchid glows with a green light, the withered heart vine's tender leaves sway, the Purple Gold Blood Nourishing Ginseng exudes its fragrance, the Crimson Flame Lotus sprinkles sparkling light, and the shriveled Cold Marrow Wood seeds are brimming with vitality.

"disease!"

With a flick of his finger, Fang Yi sent the Azure Cloud of Treasures into the medicinal field, where the pure life force of each third-tier spiritual plant was absorbed.

In the blink of an eye, the jade heart orchid's green light dimmed, the tender leaves of the withered heart vine withered, and the fragrance of the purple-gold blood-nourishing ginseng vanished.
"Photography!"

Surrounded by auspicious clouds and ethereal phenomena, the air rippled with layers of spiritual energy, eventually transforming into a medicinal furnace.

The most fundamental life force of the elixir is harmonized and circulated in the furnace, transforming into a dose of elixir.

With his fingertips pinching the cyan mist, Fang Yi frowned slightly, opened his mouth and swallowed it, as if sweet rain had fallen, nourishing his parched meridians.

As the medicinal power within the Azure Sky Treasure Cloud Qi was continuously absorbed and refined, the paleness on his face slowly faded, and a rosy glow returned.

The low energy level is also stabilizing and gradually recovering.

A few moments.

Fang Yi pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both feelings and

The "Scripture of Life, Death, Withering and Flourishing" truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient and extraordinary skill. Originating from the Xuan Tian spiritual tree, the Great Chun, it grants longevity and abundant magical power after cultivation, almost twice that of a True Person of the same level.

"Unfortunately, focusing on steady progress and solidifying the foundation has resulted in slow advancement in cultivation."
"If I had used the [Three Yin Slaughtering God Technique] from my previous life, although it would have shortened my lifespan, I would have already reached the mid-stage of Core Formation by now."

Fang Yi shook his head slightly, sweeping aside the complex thoughts in his mind, and the [Scripture of Life, Death and Prosperity] stood tall and imposing.

In the past life, there was no choice, but in this life, one should take a steady and pragmatic approach, without having to take the rugged path.

His gaze pierced through layers of magical restrictions and landed in the quiet room, where he saw Changsun Jie with his eyes closed, adjusting his breathing; his injuries were still quite severe.

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, withdrew his gaze, and seized the time to continue absorbing spiritual energy. Although the vital energy consumed by the [Great Physician's Diagnosis Technique] was healed by 70% by the Azure Sky Treasure Cloud Qi.

The remaining 30% will require patient and gradual recovery, taking about a month.

Even so, it was enough to make a third-tier spiritual healer envious, causing them to use their great medical techniques and consume their life essence.

Even with the aid of spiritual medicine, which third-tier spiritual healer wouldn't need nearly ten years of recuperation to recover?

Half a day later, as darkness fell, a crescent moon rose, casting its silvery light.

Wearing a wooden crown and a light blue robe, Qin Yu landed in the medicinal field of the Xuanling Longevity Palace.

"I've met Master."

He sensed a slight disharmony in Fang Yi's otherwise harmonious aura, and his brows furrowed slightly, his expression showing concern.

"Master, you expended your life essence to perform the Great Physician's Diagnosis Technique?"

"Hmm, you can sense this. Your spiritual healing skills have accumulated quite a bit at the second-tier high level, and you are not far from the near-third tier."

Please have a seat.

"Once your junior brothers arrive, I have some instructions for you."

With a wave of his sleeve, Fang Yi caused several green vines to rise from the medicinal field and weave into four futons.

Seeing that his master was unwilling to say more, Qin Yu frowned. As a practitioner of spiritual medicine, how could he not know the prestige of the [Great Physician Diagnosis Method]?

It consumes the essence of spiritual healing to make up for the patient's deficiencies, and is even known as the "heaven-mending method".

However, the energy consumption for using spiritual healing techniques is also extremely high, and each use means a significant loss of vital energy and a delay in cultivation for the spiritual healer.

Those who lack profound knowledge may even endanger their lifespan.

"Is it Sheng Bo'an?"

Qin Yu closed his eyes slightly, concealing the anger in his heart.

Knowing that his master owed Hu Lei Zhenren a favor, he promised to repay it with the "Great Physician's Diagnosis Method".

But what was Sheng Bo'an's intention in taking action before attacking Qingkong Cliff?

Moreover, as Fang Yi's eldest disciple, he always sides with his relatives, regardless of right or wrong.

'Afterwards, we need to inform Junior Brother Huo, Junior Brother Li, and Junior Brother Fan that the three of us working together will be enough to teach Sheng Bo'an a lesson.'

They can also borrow the power of Zhu Huan from the Xuan Yang lineage.

It's not advisable to intervene personally, but this could also create enmity between Sheng Bo'an and the Tianji lineage.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Yu had already formed a general plan in his mind. Having been in charge of Black Abyss Island for one or two decades, his skill in using others to do his dirty work was extremely refined.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, the wooden ruler struck Qin Yu's forehead, and he cried out in pain. Instinctively, his magical power surged, and his robes fluttered in the wind.

Fang Yi put away the wooden ruler in his hand and looked at Qin Yu, whose aura was high and radiant, with a thin but extremely high-grade wisp of precious light in his aura.

"No longer hiding?"

"Junior Brother Li Heng is capable and therefore has many responsibilities. As his senior brother, I am just an ordinary person, so it is naturally not appropriate for me to stand out too much..." Qin Yu said with a simple smile.

"Heng'er is truly blessed to have a senior brother like you..."

Fang Yi shook his head and laughed as he scolded.

"Among my disciples, Qin Yu, you are most like me. You are very good at hiding your abilities. When you fought against Foundation Establishment cultivators for five years, you did not reveal a single bit of your true strength."

The Azure Lotus Treasure Scripture is among the top-tier third-tier cultivation techniques, only slightly inferior to those ancient and almost lost extraordinary skills.

"With this magic treasure-level natal banner, even a fake Core Formation cultivator couldn't harm you?"

Qin Yu said in a low voice, "With Junior Brother Li holding off the fake Core Formation cultivators, the rest of the Foundation Establishment cultivators are nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs."

"Top-tier Core Formation talents like Zhu Huan and Huang Daiyue, and considering their master's reputation, wouldn't need to use their natal treasures."

Fang Yi laughed and joked.

"If Heng'er knew that you treated him like a laborer, even though he was your own senior brother, he would be furious with you."

When will you refine your natal treasure, the Azure Lotus Banner, into a magical artifact?

Qin Yu rubbed his swollen forehead, a wisp of blue light flowed through it, the redness and swelling subsided, and he then gave a simple and honest smile.

"Some time ago, I had some fortuitous encounters."

"You're being modest now. The Azure Lotus Banner originates from the Azure Lotus Treasure Sutra, and it's top-notch among defensive treasures."

The ability to refine a magical artifact requires tireless nurturing and diligent refinement day and night; it's not something that can be achieved through mere chance.

Fang Yi's eyes showed satisfaction. After a moment's consideration, his aura changed, and a phantom of a blue lotus appeared behind him.

"You are indeed a man of inner beauty. Do not harbor any wicked thoughts towards Sheng Bo'an. Your master has not suffered any damage."

To lure fish onto the hook, you have to make some sacrifices. I'll just need to treat them for a few days."

"Fish?"

Qin Yu subconsciously looked towards the direction of Tianji Peak, then his gaze wandered and swept towards the Burning Dome.

He knew his greatest adversary among the Five Extremes Peaks lineage, and it was clear that they had used underhanded tactics against him in the past.

"Unfortunately, this disciple's talent is mediocre, and I have not yet broken through to the Core Formation stage. I can only wait for Junior Brother Heng to break through so that I can share Master's burdens."

"How long have you been suppressing your cultivation?" Fang Yi suddenly asked.

"Hey, Master has a discerning eye." Qin Yu held up three fingers and whispered. "This is the third time this disciple has broken through to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment."

"If it weren't for solidifying your foundation, your cultivation would have advanced so much that you'd probably surpass Heng'er."

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of how Li Heng had taken care of his two senior brothers because of their insufficient cultivation, and how they had fought against fake core cultivators. He couldn't help but smile.

"Don't worry about my affairs. Focus on condensing your inner core as soon as possible; that's the right path."

"Yes, thank you Master!"

Qin Yu's expression turned serious, and he had a hunch that there must be more to the story than met the eye in the battle between Xuan Yang Mountain and Bi Shui Pavilion.

An hour later.

All the prayer cushions were occupied, and the disciples had all arrived. Fang Yi waved his sleeve, and three jade slips slid out and landed in the arms of Qin Yu, Li Heng, and Huo Zhao.

"Two Golden Core cultivators have emerged from the Azure Water Pavilion, and one from the Chen family of Heavenly Blade Dock. The sect has established the positions of the Nine Profound Yang Sons, as you all know."
However, one thing was not announced: the top three among the Nine Sons of Xuan Yang would receive a Core Formation spiritual item.

A Core Formation Spiritual Object?

Li Heng, disregarding the jade slip in his hand, suddenly gleamed with a sharp light, and the sound of a surging sea echoed from his robes. "Master, is the sect so grand?"

Qin Yu frowned slightly, already pondering how to eliminate any potential opponents.

The entire group at Qingkong Cliff was led by the Wuji Peak lineage, and there was absolutely no question of anyone else taking the credit.

"Deye has not yet established his foundation. He should stay at Five Extremes Peak and cultivate diligently so that he can establish his foundation as soon as possible."
As for the three of you, your foundations are solid. I have passed down this [True Chapter on Spiritual Root Ascension]; are the qualities of your Dao foundations sufficient?

"Raise the quality of the foundation?"

Li Heng probed the jade slip with his divine sense. After a few breaths, his five fingers unconsciously clenched, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"Master actually possesses such a wondrous method!"

"Spiritual veins are plentiful, but whether you can obtain a suitable third-tier spiritual seed depends on your luck."

Fang Yi concealed the sharp glint in his eyes and said slowly.

"This is your greatest chance. Whether you succeed or not, Yu'er and Heng'er should prepare to condense their cores."
Otherwise, even I, your teacher, will not be able to protect you in the future.”

Qin Yu suppressed his excitement, gripping the jade slip tightly with his five fingers inside his sleeve. Raising his Dao Foundation by one grade would reduce the obstacles to Core Formation.

This [True Chapter on Spiritual Root Ascension] is a method to change his fate!
"Master has already shown great kindness by providing this opportunity. Jade cannot be made into a useful object without being polished. How could this disciple be ungrateful?"

Fang Yi nodded slightly, took out a stack of talismans, and with a flick of his five fingers, split the talismans into three, which fell into the hands of the three disciples.

"This is a near-third-tier talisman meticulously drawn by the sect's talisman master, complete with escape, defense, attack, and healing capabilities."

In addition, Yang Juyu, I have some instructions: if you need to refine magical artifacts, you can go to the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.

If you want to engage in combat and gain more experience, seek out Du Jiabao in the peak's combat arena. He can condense a pseudo-core because of his top-notch combat experience.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Master!" Qin Yu, Huo Zhao, Li Heng, and the others looked delighted and bowed in unison.

The fact that three pseudo-Dan Masters assisted in the training was something that would have been impossible if they weren't Fang Yi's disciples.

"Well, from now on, everything will depend on you."

As the lingering sound faded, Fang Yi had vanished by the time the four disciples looked up.

Qin Yu hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the sound of the surging tide.

Li Heng, holding the Vast Ocean Pearl in his hand, had a gloomy face. He blocked the way and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Senior Brother Qin, Master said you have the potential to form your core. Did you hold back when you fought against the other cultivators before?"

Qin Yu felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.

"Junior brother, you misunderstand. Senior brother saw that junior brother excels in combat, so..."

"So you're just dumping all the hard work on me?!"

Li Heng recalled his battle with the fake alchemist Deng Li, and felt a faint, phantom pain in his meridians.

He is a top-grade Dao Foundation cultivator with a solid foundation, which is true. However, he is capable of managing the Brocade Pavilion. Among the pseudo-core cultivators, Deng Li is not weak either.

He gave it his all in that battle, but suffered quite a bit.

"Only you believe that Senior Brother is not good at fighting, back when Senior Brother beat me."

When Qin Yu glanced at him, Huo Zhao was startled and immediately shut up. He then pulled Fan Deye, whose eyes were shining, aside and began to whisper among themselves.

"Deye, let me tell you something."

We, my fellow disciples, though our eldest brother is an upright gentleman, can be quite cunning.
Back on Black Abyss Island, I don't know how many times he fooled me."

"boom!"

Li Heng's face was ashen. Huo Zhao and Fan Deye spoke without any restraint, so he was the only one who didn't know Qin Yu's background.

"Senior Brother Qin, I'd like to learn from you!"

The shimmering light of the Hanhai Jewelry sparkled a deep blue tide, crashing down wave after wave.

Qin Yu shook his head slightly, his eyes turning solemn, and he murmured to himself.

With the "True Chapter of Spiritual Root Ascension" in hand, the "Azure Sky Cliff" is of paramount importance.

However, we cannot let Li Heng act recklessly.

"Wow!"

A banner of emerald water and blue lotus was raised, surrounded by mist, with blue lotus blossoms hanging down, and in an instant, it transformed into a half-acre sea of ​​lotus.

As the blue lotus swayed, it easily shattered the continuous waves.

"Junior Brother Li, stop fooling around."

Qin Yu's robes fluttered in the wind, and the precious flag in his hand moved without wind, exuding a powerful aura.

"Azure Lotus Domain!" Li Heng said solemnly, enunciating each word clearly.

"Such pure magical power is no less than that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the peak of his cultivation."

Senior Brother, you've been hiding your abilities very well!

In the herb field, a wisp of withering and flourishing magic power transformed into a recording mirror. Fang Yi flicked his fingertip, and a wisp of green light suppressed the aftershocks of the battle between the two.

"Before the final battle in Xuan Yang, Yu'er has been in charge of Black Abyss Island for a long time and is steady in her actions. It would be good if she could suppress Heng'er."
"A war to annihilate a sect, versus fighting for a few spiritual lands—the difference between them is like heaven and earth."

Fang Yi looked at the listless elixir and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"The medicine is still not strong enough to restore the lost vital energy."
But if we continue to extract the essence, like fishing in a pond, the elixir will die completely.

"Given the barrenness of the Great Cloud Realm, only a few spiritual herbs were obtained by scavenging the Xuan Yang Realm. With these herbs dead, cultivating the Azure Sky Treasure Cloud Qi will be twice as difficult, half as efficient."

The Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner was raised, beginning to absorb and release earth energy to stabilize the small grotto-heaven within the banner.

The azure sky and precious clouds fell into the small cave, swirling around the bitter plum and fire jujube wood, from which a wisp of life force was extracted.

Fang Yi swallowed the Azure Sky Treasure Cloud Qi, glanced at Changsun Jie deep in the cave whose aura had slightly recovered, and shook his head slightly.

"My wealth is still lacking, but I have a limited number of third-tier spiritual herbs and plants."

Then I hope to gain something from [Qingkong Cliff].

Otherwise, the only option is to scheme to open the [Jianyang Secret Realm].

Fang Yi knew perfectly well that the trip to Qingkong Cliff was not only Qin Yu and Huo Zhao's last great opportunity.

For him, this was also a rare period of accumulation before the war to destroy the faction.

one year later.

The Xuanling Longevity Palace, shrouded in clouds and mist, is a magnificent ship a hundred feet long, gleaming with a crimson halo.

The magical barriers on the ship circulated, and Fang Yi stepped out onto the deck. Three fake Core Formation cultivators followed him to his right, rear, and left, while three disciples were on his right.

A crimson light landed on the plank. Looking at the portrait that should have been enshrined in the Ancestral Hall, Qin Yu's pupils shrank slightly, and Huo Zhao exclaimed in surprise.

"Grandmaster, the ancestor has risen from the dead!"

"Master, the Ancestral Master has risen from the dead!"

"Nonsense!"

Fang Yi shook his head slightly and reprimanded, "Your patriarch did not pass away peacefully. After forming his core, he went into seclusion to cultivate in accordance with the sect's orders."

Now that the Azure Water Pavilion's strength has surged and its potential has multiplied, the sect naturally intends to strike with overwhelming force.

Qin Yu bowed respectfully. "Qin Yu greets Ancestor Chang Ce."

"Hmm, you're calm and collected. Qin Yu, you're not bad!"

Xiao Changce nodded slightly, his face showing approval, and with a wave of his hand, a beam of spiritual light descended.

His gaze then swept over Huo Zhao and Li Heng, finally settling on Du Qingman, Yang Juyu, and Du Jiabao, the three pseudo-Dan masters.
"With three Pseudo-Core Formation cultivators joining us, Fang Yi, you truly deserve to be my most promising disciple."

Du Qingman's lips twitched slightly. The three fake Dan cultivators exchanged glances and saw the suppressed smiles in each other's eyes.

Xiao Changce, a descendant of a superior spiritual root, has not even established a foundation for his Dao. In his early years, he was the 'Number One' Master of Xuan Yang, a title known to all.

Fang Yi nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over Tianji Peak and Burning Dome, finally settling on the depths of Xuanling Longevity Palace.

Immediately, a beam of spiritual light shot out, causing the ship to tremble. The crystalline spiritual light flowed and then transformed into an invisible beam of light and disappeared.

At dusk, dark clouds obscured the moon.

The Five Extremes Peak was shrouded in darkness. Deep within the Xuanling Longevity Palace, amidst layers of magical restrictions, a figure materialized.

"Fang Yi is finally gone."

Changsun Jie's face lit up with joy. With a wave of his sleeve, an ancient scroll surrounded by starlight transformed into a curtain to conceal the secrets of heaven.

"If Yan Youtai hadn't asked me to, would I have taken such a risk?"
"Don't worry, sir, I'll be here soon to assist you."
