I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 50 Living Natural Phenomena

"You're right, I am indeed very afraid of dying."

Seeing the red-haired demon god gradually taking shape behind Li Boyang, the big black dog finally lowered its head.

"Using one's own shadow to bear the curse of the grubs, what a brilliant idea..."

"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be really hard to believe..."

"You actually managed to cultivate a real ghost god in less than three years."

With a faint smile playing on his lips, Li Boyang waved his hand, dispelling the ghostly shadows behind him.

"I have to thank that ghost from three years ago; it helped me gain a lot."

"And you provided a lot of help, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to completely remove the curse of that evil god."

The big black dog didn't believe Li Boyang's nonsense at all; it just bared its teeth and mocked him.

"Then you should thank 'Nine Chapters of Divination' first..."

"If that woman knew that you used her life's work to research and cultivate ghosts and gods, she would be so angry that she would come back to life and kill you with her own hands."

Upon hearing this, Li Boyang merely rotated the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor slightly, without denying the big black dog's statement.

"That witch met an unfortunate end because she was too kind, didn't she?"

The big black dog immediately raised its head and stared at Li Boyang for a long time before finally letting out a carefree smile.

"Are you trying to trick me into telling me something again?"

"But you're right, that woman was too hypocritical, which is why she died such a tragic death in the end."

"If you really want to know how that woman died, let me out, and I promise to tell you everything I know."

Li Boyang curled his lip in disdain and did not respond to the big black dog's words.

"Force is something...you can choose not to use it, but you can't live without it."

"The ghost from three years ago, and your existence, have made me understand this principle deeply."

"If one day you really manage to escape from here, then I advise you to run as far away as possible."

"After all, I am different from that witch."

"I'm not going to go to all the trouble of sealing you away somewhere and then quietly waiting for you to repent."

The smile on his face froze instantly.

The big black dog could hear the determination in Li Boyang's words.

Moreover, the years of getting along had made the big black dog clearly realize the difference between Li Boyang and that woman.

Compared to that naive woman, Li Boyang's thinking was far too mature—so mature that the big black dog sometimes even doubted whether he was an old ghost who had lived for tens of thousands of years.

"Let's talk about today's lesson!"

The topic was abruptly changed, and the big black dog didn't even look into Li Boyang's eyes again.

"I have successfully separated the primordial energy of heaven and earth from my own primordial energy..."

"As you said before, even without the help of the primordial energy of heaven and earth, the life energy that our physical bodies can generate is enormous, as people like us are born with divine nature."

"I tried to purify my life force and channel it into my meridians and dantian."

"As a result, the primordial energy of heaven and earth did not seem to like what I did; it would always rush into my dantian together."

Li Boyang, equally focused on observing the large black dog's condition with his third eye, asked thoughtfully.

Why do you insist on separating the primordial energy of heaven and earth from the primordial energy of life?

"You are no ordinary being; in essence, you are closer to the primordial energy of heaven and earth..."

"Perhaps the life force is an unexpected product, and the energy of heaven and earth is the type of energy that truly matches yours?"

Upon hearing Li Boyang's words, the big black dog was taken aback at first, and then retorted.

"That's different!"

"In that woman's words—I must be a human being first, and then a shaman."

"No matter what I was before I was born, and no matter what I will become after I die..."

“At this moment, the me that appears before you is a real life, not some ignorant and unconscious primordial energy of heaven and earth.”

"The primordial energy of heaven and earth may possess unimaginable power, but I am the master who controls this power." "If I allow that primordial energy to scatter my own and flood my meridians..."

“I have a premonition that I will transform into a natural phenomenon in this world—a living natural phenomenon, an entity that no longer has a body.”

Feilai Peak, Mountain God Temple.

By the time the eldest daughter came down from the cliff, it was already noon.

After looking around several times and not finding Li Boyang.

The young girl's eyes immediately lit up, and without hesitation, she ran towards a small courtyard on the side of the mountain god temple.

That small courtyard is located to the right of the mountain god temple, occupying about one-fifth of the entire temple area.

Compared to the main hall in the front courtyard, and the back courtyard leading to the back mountain...

This courtyard looks more like it was prepared for the temple keeper and priests who lived in the mountain god temple.

However, ever since Li Boyang and Da Yatou moved into this mountain god temple, this courtyard has become their residence.

Or more precisely, this place became Li Boyang's dedicated space for making and experimenting with various tools.

Saw, plane, chisel, ruler, hammer, ink line, axe, drill, nail, pliers, file, felt, iron plate, bellows...

Silk thread, hemp rope, pin buckle, long rod, bricks, bolts, wooden planks, long cabinet, ceramics, oil lamp, stove...

In addition, there are those oddly shaped things with unclear purposes.

Everywhere you look, there are small props and trinkets that Li Boyang has made over the past few years.

In a corner of the yard, discarded molds made of wood and mud can be seen everywhere.

However, the most eye-catching thing is the Soul Cauldron in the very center of the courtyard, which is always burning with flames. It is the most precious treasure here.

From initial surprise to now taking it for granted.

The eldest daughter had a general idea of ​​what Li Boyang was doing, and occasionally she would take the initiative to help him.

In Da Yatou's eyes, Li Boyang was like a combination of the carpenters and blacksmiths from the nearby towns.

In addition to making ordinary tables, chairs, benches, knives, guns, and arrows.

Li Boyang will also design some more unique and novel things.

In fact, it was the ingenious and refreshing things that were the main reason why Da Yatou was willing to take the initiative to patiently help Li Boyang.

A beautifully designed and uniquely styled folding knife, resembling a butterfly...

An iron toad that can jump automatically when wound up...

A Rubik's Cube that can rotate freely...

My little brother seems to have endless wonderful ideas in his mind, and he always manages to bring all sorts of surprises to my eldest daughter.

Unfortunately, my younger brother was clearly not satisfied with those small items, and was constantly thinking about how to create something bigger and more amazing.

He had worked as Li Boyang's assistant for three years, after all.

The eldest daughter knew that many things had actually been designed by her younger brother long ago.

However, due to limitations in material hardness and energy sustainability, it has never been truly implemented.

The eldest daughter could barely understand the issue of material hardness.

Isn't it just a lot of metal that's hard enough?
Among many metals, copper is undoubtedly the most ductile.

Iron, the hardest mineral, is the rarest of all mineral metals.

Every time E'tu passed through Lijia Village, he would bring some bronze and iron ingots for his younger brother, which was enough to barely meet his daily needs.

However, energy was something that was completely beyond the eldest daughter's comprehension.

All she knew was that the lamp oil used occasionally in the village could be considered a form of energy.
