Chapter 68 The spirit-condensing species breaks through the bottleneck and enters the three realms!
As the old saying goes, a day in the cave means a thousand years in the world.
This is especially true for retreat practice.
Sealing the seven orifices and five senses, you don’t know the passage of time at all.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed by.
In the past few days, waves of people have come.
Most of them are people from families and business firms that are attached to the Chen family.
You know, in a hundred years of business.
The Chen family is no longer just in the business of fighting.
In the generation of the old shopkeeper, when they had money, they started to buy land titles.
In recent years, there have been wars, natural and man-made disasters, and countless businesses have closed down.
In the entire Xiangyin, the rich and powerful can be counted on one hand.
In addition, the Chen family is the only one who can take control of both black and white.
Those desperate merchants, in order to survive, can only mortgage their shops to the Chen family in exchange for a sum of money to save money.
But this thing is far from enough water to quench the near thirst.
It’s been a long time.
The interest is getting higher and higher.
There is no way to repay it.
Those time-honored merchants exist in name only and are already the property of the Chen family.
It’s just that we still let them help take care of it.
It is worth mentioning.
In these trading houses, there are many gambling stalls, opium dens and smoke and willow places.
However, half a year ago, the opium shop was forced to close by Chen Yulou.
A strict order was issued. Anyone in the Chen family who dared to swallow smoke secretly would be expelled regardless of their seniority or position.
As for the fireworks alley, it was also handed over to other companies.
Now, I heard that shopkeeper Chen is back from fighting.
How can they sit still?
After all, we rely on the big tree of the Chen family to make a living.
One after another came to visit with gifts.
Unfortunately, Chen Yulou has gone into seclusion to practice, and no one has seen him.
For serious businesses such as antique stores, rice and grain stores, clothing stores, and restaurants, Uncle Yu, the old butler of the Chen family, comes forward.
If you are a gambling stall, a dental shop, or a local goods shop, then Huamaguai will be the one to entertain you.
At this moment.
Outside Guanyun Tower, Kunlun was still holding the euphorbia and guarding the door.
Huamaguai, who changed into a robe, came all the way from the corner.
"Isn't the shopkeeper out yet?"
Kunlun shook his head.
"Hey, it's been a few days, how can I do it without eating or drinking?"
Hearing this answer, Huama turned around and frowned, and sat down with her hands against Kunlun.
How old was he then?
It was a time of war and chaos, when the huge dynasty collapsed, and his father's skills were no longer useful.
Originally, the whole family just relied on Dad to earn a living in the government office.
Not to mention how good it is, but it can barely stop starving to death.
But at that time, the imperial court had too much to take care of itself. How could a single man stand on his own? The whole family was on the run.
Had it not been for Luocao being taken in by Changsheng Mountain in the end, Huamaguai might have starved to death.
This also caused him to lose his energy congenitally and grow smaller and thinner.
Currently next to Kunlun.
The difference in body shape is even more obvious.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a wild monkey and a blind bear sitting together.
"Kunlun, do you think you should wake up the shopkeeper... and have a look."
He didn't know how many times he came here these days.
But it comes up short every time.
Although the shopkeeper has often failed to show up in the past six months, it has never been like this.
It lasts five days.
Counting it down, it has been almost six days.
He is not worried about anything else. The Chen family has been a single generation since the old shopkeeper.
Today, one person in charge of the shop is responsible for the wealth and lives of the entire Chen family and more than 100,000 people in Changsheng Mountain.
In case something happens.
Who can afford it?
That is to say, no outsiders know about this matter yet.
Only a few of their close men.
But paper cannot cover the fire after all.
After all, when he came back, everyone inside and outside Zhuangzi was watching, and he had to show his face. As time went by, rumors would easily spread.
Of course.
He comes over, there is another big thing.
Listening to his words, Kunlun shook his head subconsciously.
Before the shopkeeper went into seclusion, he told himself very clearly that he should stay outside the door and not let anyone disturb him.
But the kidnapper is right.
How many days has it been?
People are not made of iron. If something happens to them, wouldn’t they become a sinner?
But what if the shopkeeper is fine and goes in rashly to disturb him?
He was not enlightened at all.
When two choices are put together.
Suddenly he felt like he had a huge headache.
After hesitating again and again, Kunlun finally came up with an idea. He stood the euphorbia in his arms against the wall, making gestures and whining and saying something.
"You mean to wait and see what happens?"
Huamaguai stared at it carefully for a long time.
The fortune teller finally understood what Kunlun meant.
Just.
Is it possible?
But then I thought about it, and there seemed to be no better way at the moment.
"Then let noon be the boundary."
"After that point, Kunlun, you can't stop me anymore."
Huamaguai looked serious. road.
Kunlun calculated on his fingers that there was still an hour or two left, and after confirming that nothing would go wrong, he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you kid finally understands for once."
"I'm not leaving either. I'll just wait here with you."
Seeing that he finally let go, Huamaguai tensed up. The heartstrings were finally loosened.
He is afraid that Kunlun will act stupidly and bite him to death. That would be a really bad thing.
Seeing the scorching sun above her head, Huama took a few steps aside and hid in the shadow of the corner.
Seeing this, Kunlun just grinned.
He seems to have no feelings about exposure.
Having copied Euphorbia, I didn’t mind the trouble. I took apart the strip of cloth and wiped it bit by bit.
Huamaguai has become accustomed to strange things.
Talk to him while minding your own business.
But he was the one doing the talking most of the time.
It’s nothing more than things at home or on the mountain.
More than a hundred thousand people opened their mouths, waiting to eat.
Although a trip to Pingshan can solve an urgent need.
But it was just June, and the weather was several times hotter than in previous years.
Such an unusual climate.
It made him worried.
Worried about the poor harvest of crops in the fields.
Kunlun's attention was entirely on the spurge, as if wiping it clean was more important than anything else.
But occasionally he would raise his head and look at Huamaguai who was talking endlessly, with a bit of envy in his eyes.
He suddenly remembered something.
Some time ago in Pingshan, the shopkeeper promised him that when he returned to Zhuangzi, he would find a teacher to teach him how to read and digit.
But...
Come back for a few days.
The shopkeeper has been in retreat.
I don’t know if he still remembers it.
At this moment.
The bottom of Guanyun Building.
It is different from the scorching sun outside.
The indoor air is grounded, and the cold air in the ice cellar circulates back and forth along the buried copper pipes.
Instead, it feels like a cool breeze.
The flickering lights on the four walls above our heads are still bright.
The figure sitting cross-legged on the ground reflected in it is even more mysterious.
A few days passed.
Chen Yulou never sleeps and has been practicing meditation.
In the mutton-fat jade letter next to him, he had swallowed all the five inner elixirs and turned them into rolling medicinal power.
In a few jade boxes next to it.
You can still vaguely see the shadows of ginseng, astragalus and polygonum multiflorum from the scattered leaves.
He has just entered the Qi Refining Pass, and is far from being able to live without a grain.
These days, I rely entirely on those big medicines to support me.
That's him. Looking at the world, how many people can be so luxurious as to eat Laoshan Ginseng?
Not to mention whether the body can withstand it, the majestic power of the medicine washes away.
A formed fleece-flower root is worth at least a small yellow croaker if placed outside.
Of course.
They are not wasted either.
Try the Aoki Kung that works endlessly. Let his body be like a furnace, able to smelt every great medicine to the extreme.
Nothing is wasted.
The power of the medicine turns into Aoki Spiritual Energy.
The residue is melted into Qi and blood to replenish one's own consumption.
But what surprised him the most were the five spiritual inner elixirs.
Everything in the world and the living beings in the world are born and destroyed. They can never escape the cycle of birth, old age, illness and death.
So, it is not only people who want to see through the secrets of heaven, achieve greatness, and live as long as heaven, but other living beings are also greedy for life and afraid of death.
Nothing more.
The so-called great road is determined by nature.
How many people have left everything behind and escaped into the deep mountains and forests to refine elixirs and become convinced throughout their lives.
But in the end it was difficult to achieve anything, and in the end it ended up in a grave of bones and withered bones.
On the contrary, those belonging to cattle and sheep, who have been confused all their lives, can condense the inner elixir without realizing it.
The pill in the golden jade letter.
That's it.
It's just that it's not a bezoar or a dog treasure, but a natural creature.
At least he is at the level of Nuqing Chicken.
The spiritual energy contained in it is really unimaginable.
Swallow five inner elixirs in a row, supplemented by century-old ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Polygonum multiflorum and other elixirs.
Let Chen Yulou do it in just six days.
The realm is changing rapidly.
He could clearly feel that in the depths of the Qi Sea, a pill that was as green as jade and wrapped in spiritual energy was gradually taking shape.
“Spirit Seed!”
The second level of Aoki Kung Fu.
It is to condense the green wood spiritual seeds.
Once you step into this realm, the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth will be more than twice as fast as the first level.
Same time, twice the result with half the effort!
If it were just like this, Chen Yulou wouldn't be so excited.
What surprised him even more.
After smelting five inner elixirs and several large medicinal plants, the spiritual energy stored in his Qi Sea has turned into spiritual liquid.
His energy and blood were at least three to five times more powerful than before.
The key is that he has been able to look inside himself and refine his five internal organs with Qi and blood!
According to the records of Isao Aoki.
The Qi Refining Pass has five levels in total.
Collecting Qi, strengthening blood, internal refining, spiritual consciousness and the five Qi Chaoyuan.
In the past six months, I practiced in seclusion and finally entered the Qi Refining Pass.
It’s not that his talent is too poor.
It’s simply that Aoki’s longevity skill is too abnormal.
After all, it is a method of cultivating immortality that leads directly to the road to eternal life. Just the first level is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
But everything is governed by Yin and Yang.
The level of a skill often determines what level one can reach.
It is also the Qi Refining Pass, and the spiritual energy in Chen Yulou’s Qi Sea is at least several times that of the Partridge Whistle.
According to his estimate.
Once the spiritual seed is successfully condensed.
There is a high probability that he can break through two orifices in Qi refining.
From collecting Qi, passing through strengthening blood, and reaching the realm of internal refining of the five internal organs.
At that time, the strength will be greatly improved.
"Boom——"
You can hear a needle drop, and it is extremely quiet in the basement.
Suddenly, a sound like a rushing tide came out.
Rising and falling with the sound of the tide.
Outside Chen Yulou, invisible auras also rose out of thin air.
It was like the wind was blowing.
In the long-lit lamps on the side, the lights that were originally burning quietly began to flicker.
What’s even more amazing is.
The void with him as the center seemed to be distorted.
In the light and shadow, the figure sitting cross-legged reflects an unfathomable intersection.
It makes him look a little more mysterious in addition to being dusty.
Finally.
The sound of the tide gradually dissipated.
But what followed was a scene that was even more difficult to understand.
In the basement, the flowing atmosphere suddenly swept towards Chen Yulou.
It was as if... his whole body turned into a whirlpool.
Crazyly absorbing the spiritual energy of the surrounding world.
Soon, the momentum rose from the ground to the sky, from the first floor to the fifth floor, encompassing the entire Guanyun Tower.
The devouring has not stopped.
Chenjiazhuang and the mountains behind are all covered.
The first person to discover this shocking change was Nu Qingji.
After returning from Bottle Mountain, it has been living in the backyard.
Someone takes care of three meals a day, not to mention.
There are also special men who go to the mountains to catch poisonous things like centipedes and scorpions for them to eat.
Compared to the hard days in Miao Village.
It can be said that there is one heaven and one earth.
And it was resting in the cage.
The moment the earth-shattering aura enveloped Chenjiazhuang, it suddenly opened its eyes.
For that breath.
It couldn't be more familiar.
It is clearly the Aoki Spiritual Qi that the master breathes in and out when practicing.
But unlike in the past, the aura at this moment is so majestic, like a big river flowing across the sky.
Nu Qing Chicken was hiding in the bamboo cage, with a look of horror in his eyes.
after it.
The second person to notice was the white ape.
Originally, Chen Yulou planted a spiritual contract in the spiritual orifice.
Forced to leave Pingshan and go to a place where humans live.
It must be a lie if it says it is not uneasy.
I even thought about whether I would have my head knocked open and eaten.
But the White Ape didn’t discover it until he set off.
Except for the fact that those people were a little wary of it at the beginning.
When we got to the back, basically no one cared about it.
Especially in the past few days in Zhuangzi, he has lived a carefree life, with enough fruit and food, and someone has made him a suit of clothes and freed up a room to live in.
To be honest, it's a bit too happy to miss Shu.
When that breath enveloped me.
For a moment, the old ape didn't even react.
Until the feeling of oppression deep in the bloodline surges, it feels like it is facing a formidable enemy.
Throwing away the fruit in his hand, he fell to the ground and shivered.
A face with fear written all over it.
I just feel that landslides, the sky is falling, and the fear of God’s power coming to the world.
Except for their two spiritual creatures.
Hundreds of people inside and outside Zhuangzi did not notice it, thinking it was just a gust of wind.
Especially the servants who were responsible for patrolling and guarding the gate, as well as the farmers working in the fields, all looked happy and took this opportunity to take advantage of the cool weather.
"Finally there is some wind."
"Grandma, it would be nice if it rained..."
Outside the gate of Guanyun Tower, Huamaguai stretched out his hand to build an awning and said, Muttered something.
On the contrary, Kunlun next to him frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
For some reason, the figure of the shopkeeper suddenly appeared in his mind.
Subconsciously, he turned his head and glanced behind him.
The eyes seemed to have passed through the void, all the way to the ground.
"Give me...condensation!"
In the basement.
Chen Yulou slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and transparent, and he gave a low drink.
In an instant.
Outside Chenjiazhuang, it stretches for several miles.
All the spiritual energy between heaven and earth gathered together.
It blends into the center of his eyebrows, flows through hundreds of meridians, and returns to the sea of qi.
The pill-like cyclone finally slowly took shape under the majestic spiritual energy.
It is clearly a seed-like thing that is filled with spiritual light.
And it just solidified.
Chen Yulou seemed to notice something,
subconsciously looking inside himself.
The spiritual power in the spiritual seed circulates around the body. First, the energy and blood grow crazily, and then the spiritual energy flows to the five internal organs.
There seems to be five colors of Qi flowing in the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.
Smelting little by little.
This process may seem long, but in fact it only takes a moment.
Wait until the smelting of the five internal organs is completed.
The aura around him began to rise rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Feel the changes in yourself.
Even if it was Chen Yulou, he couldn't hold it back at all.
A face full of surprise, his heart was so excited that he wanted to scream.
“It is indeed the realm of internal refining!”
