Cultivating Immortality Starts with Rubbing a Computer

Chapter 143 Six Spiritual Roots (Subscribe)
In the rented house.

Fang Jun, who was originally refining the Myriad Things Dust Mirror, had an idea.

Start fortune-telling.

After receiving the hexagram, he was speechless.

"Am I not just a casual cultivator?"

"Why does someone always want to mess with me?"

"Although there is no life-threatening situation, it is still a troublesome matter."

"Who is it that keeps giving me trouble?"

"Is it Mingli? Impossible. If he wanted to cause trouble for me, he would have done it a long time ago. There is no way he would have delayed until now."

"Is it the people from Danxiayuan? They think I can't repay the loan, so they came to collect the money in advance. That's impossible. If that were the case, they could have told me directly when I first returned to Hexi City."

"Is it the Tiangong Academy? No, I'm working diligently and haven't done anything that would infringe on their interests. Or are they picking on me just because I don't charge any fees?"

"Is it He Yun? This kid is very likely to have a problem with his mentality. After the last conflict, he has repeatedly tried to pick a fight with me. I avoided him twice, and I think he will come a third time."

"Well, in that case, why not go and take a look?"

In fact, the more Fang Jun thought about it, the more he leaned towards He Yun.

As the saying goes, it is easy to see the King of Hell, but difficult to deal with little devils.

Mingli, a legitimate cultivator of the Beast Taming Sect, doesn't have so much free time.

This may not be the case for someone like He Yun who joined midway.

That being the case.

Fang Jun had a choice in his mind.

That's killing!

Yes, that’s right, killing.

Fang Jun would not intentionally rob or kill for wealth, but that doesn't mean he would show mercy to those who have been causing trouble for him.

If it was just a few words, Fang Jun actually didn't care.

But if there is always some trouble.

This leads to something that wastes Fang Jun’s precious time.

That would be embarrassing.

He never claimed to be a kind person.

Hexi City is guarded by a large formation.

But the accuracy of this formation is questionable.

He was completely unaware of Fang Jun using the upright shadowless effect.

Therefore, Fang Jun traveled all the way.

Soon they arrived at He Yun’s current residence.

The core layer of Hexi City.

He also relied on Yuanshen No. 4 to break the formation of the residence, and sneaked in quietly without a trace.

"No one, where did they go?"

When in doubt, ask for advice from Heaven.

After Fang Jun did some divination, he stood up again and walked towards the direction of divination.

"I know this place. It's the residence of the richest and most powerful foundation-building master in Hexi City."

"It seems that He Yun has taken refuge with a cultivator with a higher foundation-building level, so he feels like giving me trouble."

"Then, I can't let you stay here."

To be honest, if it were any other cultivator from the Beast Taming Sect, Fang Jun would not dare to kill him.

But He Yun was born as a casual cultivator.

Fang Jun didn't care.

The reason is that He Yun has no background.

After his death, the cultivators who were searching for the criminal would not involve the Jindan level.

As long as it is not a golden elixir, Fang Jun has nothing to worry about.

In fact, even if he hadn't killed He Yun, there were very few Foundation Establishment cultivators who could alarm the Golden Core.

Someone with such a powerful background would not stay in a small place like Hexi City.

At this time, He Yunzheng, Elder Shi, and Mingli were leaving Elder Shi's residence together.

He Yun chattered on, "Senior Brother Shi, think about it carefully. Isn't it strange that Li Yun has never joined our Beast Taming Sect and has remained unmoved?"

"I would never do that if it were me, because it would mean that my cultivation level wouldn't improve and it would just be a waste of time."

"It would be fine if Li Yun gave up practicing."

"But those who came to Hexi City obviously haven't given up on this idea."

"Wouldn't it be more pleasant to find a remote little place to act tyrannically?"

"It's because I didn't give up that I came to Hexi City."

"The fact that Hexi City has been rejecting our Beast Taming Sect proves that they have plenty of spirit stones that can be used for cultivation."

“Isn’t this inference very correct?”

Ming Li nodded: "That's right, it seems I underestimated that guy named Li Yun."

"No wonder you were so calm when I recruited you."

"It's different from other casual cultivators I've met."

"It's a pity that I was busy at the time and didn't think so much."

"The secrets of Li Yun have never been discovered."

He Yun was even more excited when he saw Mingli agreeing with him, "That's right! Every casual cultivator who can become a foundation-building cultivator is extraordinary."

“Opportunities can be big or small.”

"Little ones like me don't have much money."

"The big ones are like Li Yun, who possesses wealth that would make even a Jindan jealous."

The wealth that Jin Dan envied was of course an exaggeration.

However, at this moment, He Yun had a rare opportunity to mess with Fang Jun, so he would exaggerate the story no matter what.

Mingli and Elder Shi certainly didn't believe it.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that there was a conflict between He Yun and Li Yun.

But so what?
As long as there is profit, it doesn't matter if you act like a knife.

And if there is no benefit?
You walk in the door and you have to lie down when you leave.

Elder Shi's expression remained calm throughout the entire process: "Treasures belong to those with virtue."

"Those without virtue will suffer unexpected disasters."

"I read a fortune-teller's divination, and that Li Yun will definitely suffer a great disaster in the near future."

"So, out of compassion, I will sell some elixirs to Li Yun to help him survive this disaster."

Ming Li's face twitched when he heard this, but he still said, "Brother Shi is truly righteous. If it were any other Foundation Establishment cultivator, they would only find it troublesome and try to avoid him."

"How can I be like my senior brother, who is willing to help him so much."

He Yun simply said, "That's right, Senior Brother Shi. If it weren't for you, Li Yun would have died."

"I think Li Yun shouldn't buy any more pills."

"He suffered a disaster because he lacked strength."

"Then just hand the money over to the powerful Senior Brother Shi, and you can protect your own life."

Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Shi scolded him, "He Yun, what are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who would take advantage of someone's misfortune?"

He Yun hurriedly said, "Brother Shi, how can this be considered taking advantage of someone's misfortune? This is about saving people from suffering and helping them in need. This is about spreading the good news."

"Other foundation-building cultivators are unwilling to do it."

"Only Senior Brother Shi has a kind heart."

"Ahem." Ming Li coughed. "Alright, stop talking. Brother Shi naturally has his own considerations for what he does."

"Brother He, please stop nagging me."

Seeing this, He Yun could only say, "Okay!"

After thinking for a while, he continued, "Brother Shi, Li Yun's greatest blessing in his life is that he can meet you. It's..."

"call out--!"

Before he could finish his words, He Yun was no longer able to speak.

Elder Shi and Mingli's expressions changed drastically, and their magical powers overflowed from their bodies, changing the color of the sky in this area.

Elder Shi looked at He Yun's body falling straight to the ground and said angrily: "How dare you, master He Fang, do such despicable things and kill people in secret!"

Ming Li was also shocked and angry: "This is the territory of the Beast Taming Sect. You dare to kill me? Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, the outer space will be of no use to you!"

No wonder Elder Shi and Ming Li were not alarmed.

He Yun was killed silently in a sneak attack right beside them.

what does this mean?
This means that as long as the assassin wants, he can kill them anytime and anywhere.

And they won't be able to fight back at all.

Such a threat naturally made them feel frightened, and they even had to use their anger to suppress the fear in their hearts.

Naturally, no one would answer their questions.

It was as if nothing that just happened had happened.

But the reality is that the entire Hexi City is like a sleeping giant beast that has awakened.

The formation is activated.

The foundation-building members of each Beast Taming Sect flew into the sky, heading towards the place where He Yun lived and died.

"what's going on!"

"Mingli, what's wrong with you!"

"Brother Shi, what's going on?"

In their own territory, Elder Shi and Mingli naturally would not choose to fight alone, but instead summoned all the foundation-building cultivators in Hexi City.

Elder Shi's face turned grim: "Hexi City has a new assassin who treats our Beast Taming Sect as nothing."

"Killing our foundation-building monks without restraint."

Ming Li also said: "That assassin is very powerful, at least above the fourth level of foundation building!"

In an instant, the foundation-building cultivators of the Beastmaster Sect were in an uproar.

"What, the fourth level of foundation building? Doesn't that mean the city lord has to take action to counter it?"

"A fourth-level Foundation Establishment assassin, where on earth did this come from? Which immortal sect is he from?"

"Haha, I'm afraid he's not some fellow Taoist from the Immortal Sect. But a fellow disciple."

"Be careful!"

The cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect had different expressions and were in a state of uncertainty, but at least they all understood that they shared a common hatred for the enemy.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator asked, "By the way, who was this Foundation Establishment cultivator who died? Why have I never seen him before?"

A Foundation Establishment cultivator replied, "You've been in seclusion for a year, so naturally you don't understand. This is a new Foundation Establishment cultivator named He Yun, a cultivator that Senior Brother Ming recruited into the sect half a year ago."

"Just a casual cultivator."

"Yes, he's just a casual cultivator. But why did the assassin want to kill him? Is there any hatred or resentment between them?"

"A casual cultivator needs a fourth-level Foundation Establishment cultivator to go through so much trouble?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"Indeed, I can't understand why a casual Foundation Establishment cultivator would be worth killing."

At this time, a sinister voice interrupted, "Perhaps it's targeting Senior Brothers Shi and Ming. Just like it was targeting Senior Brother Li."

After these words were spoken, Elder Shi's expression became even uglier.

He wanted to scold, but found that the voice was disguised.

He was deliberately trying to stir up trouble. He immediately understood that it was the Beastmaster Sect cultivator who was dissatisfied with him who was speaking.

There is no faction within the organization, and all kinds of things are strange and bizarre.

Since ancient times, wherever there are people, there have been disputes.

Even if it is just a team of three, there will be various conflicts of interest.

Like some time ago, Elder Shi crossed the line and killed someone.

Although it cost a lot to settle the situation, money is one thing and the heart is another.

There are even more people who are dissatisfied with him.

He might take the opportunity to kill He Yun and threaten him.

Let him tone it down.

This is actually the real thought of many foundation-building practitioners present.

Who is He Yun?
Isn’t he just a casual cultivator who joined the Beast Taming Sect halfway?

I really thought he was a big shot.

Therefore, He Yun’s death is insignificant.

The real key is Elder Shi.

Warn him not to do this again.

"Alright, alright. We've been discussing this for so long, why not do some divination?"

"Fortune-telling? It's an ominous thing, I don't know how to do it."

"Nonsense, what's so ominous about it? Junior Brother Song, come here. Your attainments in Tianji are quite good. Can you calculate who the murderer is?"

Junior Brother Song, who was pushed out, had the cultivation level of the second level of foundation building, but his face was full of helplessness, and it was obvious that he didn't want to do such a fruitless job.

Let’s not talk about whether it can be calculated or not.

You really figured it out? Do you dare to say that?
Wouldn't it be very offensive to say it out loud?
But surrounded by the foundation-building masters, Junior Brother Song still took the compass and calculated it symbolically, sweating profusely.

Then he said with a wry smile, "The murderer is well versed in the ways of heaven, and I haven't been able to figure out any trace of him."

The people who were building their foundations were not surprised and understood.

"Junior Brother Song tried his best, but the enemy was too cunning and had already made all the necessary preparations."

"Yeah, if you dare to kill someone, then you must be so confident that you're not afraid of being discovered. What kind of skill is that if you make it known to everyone?"

"If everyone knows you, you're not a qualified assassin."

When Elder Shi heard this, he snorted coldly and turned away.

A cultivator shouted, "Brother Shi, aren't you staying together? The assassin is still there, be careful of danger!"

"Yes, Brother Shi, there is safety in numbers."

"Haha, stop saying such hypocritical things. If anything happens to Senior Brother Shi, none of you will survive."

"Zhang Bo, you are such a good dog!"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

It looked like if the cursing continued, it would turn into a fight.

Ming Li said, "Okay, everyone, stop arguing about these trivial matters."

"What we have to do now is to collect as much evidence as possible, catch the murderer, and give an explanation to the deceased."

"As for the rest of the various matters, we can discuss them after we return."

Seeing Ming Li, who represented the city lord's side, come out.

No more words are said about all the foundation building.

To be honest, killing people does make you feel relieved.

But in fact, this trend is very bad.

Because it will lead to the endless expansion of hatred.

Elder Shi was targeted by most of the foundation-building cultivators because he violated this taboo.

Now fight back again.

Fortunately, he is just a casual cultivator.

If he was a true disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, who knows how things would turn out in the end.

Therefore, in Mingli's heart, this matter should be just like this.

That's all.

Let Elder Shi be angry.

The other foundation-building cultivators were also very angry.

Now each of them is angry and happy at the same time, and a balance has been reached again.

It eased the conflicts among the foundation-building monks.

Let us return to the way things were before.

Thinking about it this way, He Yun died a good death, a very good death.

His contribution to death was truly enormous.

Not only did he contribute to the exploration of the Hongce Demon Palace over the past six months.

It is still a contribution to reconciliation among the entire Beast Taming Sect.

Ming Li thought to himself, "He Yun, your death is truly a fitting end. My decision to recruit you was a wise one."

"Oh, yes, there's also Li Yun."

"Forget it. He Yun just died. As a casual cultivator, it would be bad if something happened to Li Yun again."

"There are still some independent cultivators in Hexi City who rely on their fellow disciples."

"Although these independent cultivators no longer practice much and their strength is low, they are still at the foundation-building stage."

"If we make too much noise, the whole atmosphere of Hexi City will be bad."

“And He Yun keeps saying that Li Yun has some wealth.”

"That's hilarious! I have control over the city defense formation. I've never seen any unusual spiritual energy fluctuations coming out of Li Yun's residence."

"What kind of cultivation? Li Yun didn't cultivate at all."

"Just like those casual cultivators who only want to save money to build their foundation."

"Otherwise, why would I give the benefit to Brother Shi?"

Ten minutes later, the foundation-building energy was basically gone.

He Yun's body was naturally taken away as well, and now there was nothing here except air.

Fang Jun, who was hiding aside using the Shadowless Technique, was amazed.

He really didn't expect that the internal conflicts in Hexi City would be so sharp.

You don't have to do anything yourself.

The foundation builders in Hexi City took the initiative to stop pursuing the matter of He Yun's death.

No wonder there was no risk in killing He Yun through divination.

The mystery of cause and effect is truly magical.

……

The next day, Hexi City was still under martial law.

The upper-level foundation-building masters must have reached a conclusion, but in the end one of them died.

Some action still needs to be taken.

"Master, Master, why did He Yun die inexplicably?"

Mo Yiyi asked Fang Jun curiously, as she knew about the conflict between He Yun and Fang Jun.

Because Fang Jun would specifically remind her what kind of people and things might be dangerous.

Fang Jun said calmly, "How should I know?"

Mo Yiyi said suspiciously, "But I think Master, you must know. After all, according to the Beastmaster Sect, He Yun was assassinated."

"Could this be related to you, Master?"

Fang Jun said righteously, "Yiyi, your master has always been upright from birth to now."

"Everything will be done openly and honestly."

"How could they possibly do anything like an assassination?"

"Besides, your master is weak, just an ordinary foundation-building master, and cannot do these things."

Fang Jun, who said this, was met with Mo Yiyi's disdain.

In fact, Fang Jun never told Mo Yiyi about his true cultivation level.

But Mo Yiyi had long understood that Fang Jun had not even established his foundation.

But Mo Yiyi didn't believe at all that Fang Jun had no strength because he hadn't established his foundation.

She had already learned the ultimate path to artistic conception from Fang Jun.

I roughly guessed that this was the path Fang Jun would take.

And it is not just two simple artistic conceptions, but more than two.

Mo Yiyi pondered in her heart: "What kind of spiritual roots does Master have?"

"Two or more artistic conceptions should indicate multiple spiritual roots."

"But are the three spiritual roots and three realms of mind that strong?"

"Could it be that Master has the same five spiritual roots as me? Doesn't five spiritual roots require five states of mind to become a golden elixir?"

"The birth and death balance of the five realms of mind, no wonder Master is so powerful!"

Mo Yiyi's eyes widened at the thought.

Fang Jun asked, "Yiyi, why are you staring so hard? Have you been using microscopes too much lately and your eyesight is a little blurry?"

Although the All-Seeing Dust Mirror has not yet been refined.

However, Fang Jun had already given some microscope equipment that he had made when he had nothing to do to Mo Yiyi to practice with.

Let her, whose spiritual awareness is not yet accurate enough, get familiar with the microscopic environment.

After that, you can seamlessly accept the All-Seeing Micro-Dust Mirror.

Mo Yiyi blinked: "Master, you can't see clearly?"

"I just thought of a question and wanted to ask Master, but I don't think Master would be able to answer me."

Fang Jun said, "You haven't tried asking me, so how do you know I won't answer you?"

Mo Yiyi said: "Then Master, can you tell me what your spiritual roots are?"

Fang Jun said without hesitation: "I have six spiritual roots."

Mo Yiyi was puzzled: "I've heard of one to five spiritual roots, but I've never heard of six spiritual roots?"

Fang Jun said calmly, "Spiritual roots are used to assist in cultivation. Without them, one cannot embark on the path to immortality."

"But I have six spiritual roots to help me on the path of cultivation, so I have six spiritual roots."

Mo Yiyi's eyes suddenly lit up: "Master, I understand. Is it that you originally have five spiritual roots, but with my help, you have six spiritual roots?"

"That must be the case."

"Thanks to my luck, Master, you will have smooth sailing on your path of cultivation."

"Boom--!"

Fang Jun flicked his finger on Mo Yiyi's forehead and said, "What are you thinking? The six spiritual roots I'm talking about are eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind."

"These six senses are the medium through which humans interact with the outside world."

"The purpose of a monk's practice is to explore nature and the world."

"And to do that, you need six mediums."

"That's why I said these six senses are spiritual roots, and I hope they will help me embark on the path to immortality."

Mo Yiyi covered her forehead with her hands, tears welling in her eyes: "Then Master, what is your spiritual root level?"

Fang Jun's voice was calm: "Six spiritual roots."
