Chapter 145: The Method of Dual Cultivation
Chen Lin opened his eyes and ended his practice.
This time he meditated for another ten days, and there was still no progress in his cultivation. He couldn't help but sigh.
"It seems that we have to change another elixir. The resistance of this elixir is really troublesome."
He muttered and started to cook the spiritual rice porridge.
Within three years, he had changed several types of elixirs in succession, and all the prescriptions he had obtained had been exhausted. If he wanted to get new ones, he had to continue searching for them.
As for buying ready-made elixirs, they are too expensive, so you might as well go find a girl to practice double cultivation!
When he first came to Danding City three years ago, he was tricked by Lao Hu and Yu Zimo into going to Wuzhen Tower. After tasting the beauty of dual cultivation, he got out of hand and went there often to experience the beauty of dual cultivation.
Of course, he is not addicted to women. If he was addicted to women, with his strength and identity as an alchemist, he would not be able to find any beautiful woman from a good family.
The main reason is to improve your cultivation.
Lao Hu really didn't lie to him. Dual cultivation can indeed improve his cultivation, and it can be done faster than pills.
The elixir still needs time to be refined, and you will develop resistance if you take it too much, but the dual cultivation will have immediate effects and no side effects at all.
The only disadvantage is that the target of dual cultivation must also be well versed in the method of dual cultivation. Those who have practiced the method of dual cultivation must have similar cultivation levels, preferably higher than themselves.
It is difficult to find such a woman in a good family, and it is too time-consuming to cultivate her now, so a brothel is the best choice.
Especially the girls from Wuzhen Building, they are really wonderful. He was able to successfully break through the eighth level of Qi training, all thanks to the help of the girls.
Lao Hu's secret technique of dual cultivation is also quite mysterious. Under the harmony of yin and yang, he is getting younger and younger now, and he looks like he is about thirty years old.
"Unfortunately, things are unpredictable. I finally made two good friends, but they are both unlucky people."
Thinking of Lao Hu and Yu Zimo, Chen Lin sighed, feeling a little sad.
In just three years, the two of them died one after another.
Old Hu looked energetic. Who would have thought that he was a man with a short life span? He came to Danding City just to enjoy the last moments of his life. After staying in the city for less than a year, he passed away. In the private room of Wuzhen Building.
But the other party was benevolent and was benevolent, so he died under the peony flower.
The caviar is even worse.
In order to stay in Danding City for a long time, he often went to Wuding Sea to hunt monsters to gain points, and finally died in the mouth of the monster.
Not even the body was left behind, and the news of his death came back from the monk who went with him.
There was nothing Chen Lin could do but hire people from the business firm to send news of their deaths back to their respective homes.
The death of the two made him feel sad and urgent at the same time.
Not only is the urgency to improve strength, but also the urgency for longevity.
His real age is now almost fifty. According to the generally accepted view in the world of immortality, the best age for foundation building is under sixty years old. After this stage, the energy and blood will decline, and it will be difficult to build the foundation again. .
Be careful, I still have twelve or three years to go, and my cultivation level is only at the peak of the eighth level of Qi training.
Stuck at the bottleneck for a whole year, I still failed to break through to the ninth level of Qi training.
There is still a perfect state of Qi training above the ninth floor, and then you can try to build the foundation.
There is not much time at all.
If you fail to build the foundation once, you will have to practice for three to five years before you can do it a second time.
Furthermore, foundation building also pays attention to the importance of working hard in one go, then failing three times and then exhausting it. The more times, the lower the possibility of success.
If he cannot build the foundation, even if he is safe and sound, he will only be able to live another forty or fifty years at most, and then he will have no choice but to die like Old Hu.
After drinking two bowls of spiritual rice porridge to fill his stomach, Chen Lin walked out of the cave.
It is said to be a cave, but it is actually just a suite. It is located on the edge of the city and has little spiritual energy.
Even so, the monthly rent costs ten yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones, which is more than twice the price of Qingyang Zongdong Mansion.
But compared to the prices in Danding City, it is still cheap. He rented it for half a year at a time, and it has expired now, and he is considering whether to renew the lease.
“Forget it, let’s not think about this for now. I heard that there is a new leader in Jinfeng Tower. The dual cultivation secret technique he practices is very mysterious and his cultivation level is also high. Let’s experience it first and then talk about it. Maybe he will be able to do it. A breakthrough! ”
He is not a pedantic person. Although the way of dual cultivation is looked down upon by those who claim to be gentlemen, as long as it can improve his cultivation, he doesn't care about any means. He can only consider other things if he survives first.
Relive a new life, and have the opportunity to cultivate immortality. I am unwilling to not fight for the road to immortality.
Don’t think too much and go straight to Jinfeng Tower.
Although Wuzhen Tower is well-known, it is a mobile brothel. It goes wherever there are large-scale events. The best brothel in Danding City is usually the Jinfeng Tower.
It can be said that the cultivation level of the girls in Jinfeng Tower is relatively low, and the effect of dual cultivation is not great. Chen Lin will only visit them every time there is a new one, and he usually doesn't go there.
A few hours later, Chen Lin walked out of the Jinfeng Tower with satisfaction.
When he returned to his residence, he began to meditate and practice, consolidating his gains from this trip and improving his cultivation slightly.
“The new top recruit from Jinfeng Tower really has some skills, and he actually made his long-stagnant cultivation level grow a little bit. Unfortunately, he is still a little less interesting than the fairies from Wuzhen Tower.”
Chen Lin shook his head, feeling endless nostalgia for Wuzhen Tower in his heart.
After thinking about it for a while, he released the mysterious furnace and began to refine the elixir.
He was able to live in Danding City for three years just because of his alchemy skills. Otherwise, apart from anything else, the point issue would have forced him to leave.
When he first came here, like Lao Hu and the other two, he earned points by selling heavenly materials and earthly treasures to the Danding Sect.
These materials were all obtained by him when he traveled through dangerous areas from the Yan Kingdom to here. The value was not too high, and he was reluctant to sell what he could use, so he sold them all in less than a year. Originally, with his level of alchemy, he could join the Alchemy Sect. As a disciple of the Alchemy Sect, he would naturally not have to consider the issue of residence rights.
However, although the treatment of the Danding Sect was extremely generous, the constraints on the disciples were also very harsh, and once they started, they needed to conduct self-examination, so he had no choice but to give up this idea.
With the two secrets of time travel identity and innate ability, it is absolutely impossible to accept such things as questioning one's heart.
So after Lao Hu passed away, Chen Lin wanted to leave and go elsewhere. The world is so big that there is no place where he cannot practice cultivation, but the conditions are somewhat different.
But just when he was about to leave, he accidentally joined a small circle.
This small circle is composed entirely of wild alchemists who are unwilling to join the Alchemy Sect. They hold a gathering at a fixed time to exchange alchemy experiences and exchange some materials with each other.
After joining, he got a channel to exchange elixirs for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and then sell the heavenly materials and earthly treasures to the Danding Sect to gain points.
Of course, if this is the case, the price of the elixirs sold will be lower, and it will not be fair enough. After all, the customers of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect will be intercepted.
But as long as you don’t go too far, the Alchemy Sect doesn’t care.
When the water is clear, there will be no fish. While collecting the materials, the sect must also ensure the prosperity of the city and cannot be too harsh. In the end, these elixirs will flow into the sect anyway.
"Is Fellow Daoist Chen here? Huang Su is here to visit!"
Chen Lin had just refined a batch of Chuyuan Dan when he heard an old voice outside.
He immediately put away the alchemy furnace, opened the room's formation restrictions, and walked out.
"So it's you, Daoist Huang. Why do you have time to come to my humble house as a guest today? Come in and invite me!"
The houses here are all next to each other, and there is no privacy at all. He said that he usually kept his belongings in storage bags. There was nothing in the room and he was not afraid of being visited.
And this Huang Su is also an old man in their circle, and his relationship is not bad.
“That’s annoying!”
Huang Su was not polite and walked straight into the house.
When Chen Lin saw this, he knew that the other party probably had important matters and was not just chatting.
Back in the house, Chen Lin brewed a pot of spiritual tea and poured it. After they sat down respectively as guest and host, he said, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Huang Dao?"
Sip Huang Su's short-term spiritual tea. He took a sip and said with a smile on his face: "But there is a good thing I want to share with Mr. Daoyou Chen."
"Oh? What a good thing. Could it be that the Taoist friend's family has a daughter to be married that you want to introduce to Chen?"< br>
Chen Lin chuckled and joked.
He also roughly knows the identity of the other party. He is the elder of a nearby immortal cultivating family. It is said that the family is not small.
Huang Su glanced at Chen Lin and said nonchalantly: "If fellow Taoist Chen is willing to join my Huang family, not even one of the ten clan girls will be willing to do it, and I guarantee that all of them will be as beautiful as flowers."< br>
Any family is willing to spend a lot of money to win over an official alchemist.
Chen Lin waved his hand hurriedly, "No, I'm not that lecherous person. Let's talk about the true purpose of the Taoist friend."
Huang Su laughed and said teasingly: "I believe that others are not lewd, but Chen Daoyou, don't be humble. No one in our circle knows that all the spiritual stones you earned from alchemy in the past few years have been given to Jinfeng Tower. Jin Mrs. Xu from Fenglou praised you very much."
Chen Lin's face darkened.
I didn’t expect that my nickname would be spread.
But that’s okay, everyone knows that he is poor, so as not to be remembered.
After teasing, Huang Yu looked serious and told his purpose.
It turned out that the other party had accidentally obtained a incomplete map, which recorded the location of a master alchemy cave.
A few days ago, the other party finally determined the location above, but after going there, he found that it was a bit dangerous and guarded by a formation. He couldn't break it by himself, so he wanted to invite Chen Lin to go treasure hunting together. After the work is completed, he can be given 20% of the harvest.
Chen Lin refused without thinking.
"Chen knows that his cultivation is shallow and he never participates in any adventures. Fellow Daoist Huang should hire another expert."
Don't talk about the alchemy master's cave, even the alchemy master's cave. He wasn't interested at all.
You can earn spiritual stones by relying on your natural abilities, so there is no need to take risks.
Huang Yu didn't expect Chen Lin to refuse so simply, so he couldn't help but frowned and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen may not know that this alchemy master is very famous, and he will definitely have a lot of alchemy inheritance in the cave. And there will definitely be valuable treasures such as alchemy furnaces and even strange fires. If fellow Taoists feel that two levels are too few, we can still discuss it."
Chen Lin still shook his head.
However, he asked with some doubts: "As far as I know, there should be no shortage of powerful monks in Huang Daoyou's family. Why not invite the clan members to go instead of asking me as an outsider?"
Huang Su looked embarrassed when he heard this.
He shook his head and said: "This is a family scandal. Otherwise, Taoist Fellow Daoist, I would think that my family is so close. Why would I waste spiritual stones and live in Danding City all year round? Moreover, Fellow Daoist Chen is accomplished in body refining and is very useful in breaking the formations in the cave." Very helpful, that’s why I thought of you, fellow Taoist, first.”
Chen Lin looked surprised, but did not ask.
If you want to live a long time in the world of immortality, the most important thing is not to be too curious.
But no matter how hard the other party tried to persuade him, he just shook his head and refused.
In the end Huang Yu had no choice but to leave.
