Chapter 128: The Perfection of the Fire Element
Taixuan Holy Land took great care of Song Lingxue, opening a separate residence for her and introducing a spiritual spring.
The three-foot-square jade pond is filled with spiritual spring water, which circulates day and night.
Due to the influence of the environment of heaven and earth, the water temperature is extremely high. For monks, it is just right and can quickly stretch numb muscles and bones.
The jade pool is three feet in diameter. Even if two people bathe together, it will not look crowded at all.
"Why did you come to Taixuan suddenly? Will there be trouble? Where are my father and the others?"
Song Lingxue's face was a little more red, with a little worry.
Geng Yiyang's previous words had made her a little uneasy, and she had been a little worried about Chu Zheng's current situation.
The identity of a heretic monk is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger. If you are not careful, big things will happen.
"My father is in Juze, with your uncle's family. I have met Lingqing before, and everything is fine."
Chu Zheng closed his eyes and rested his mind, adjusting the Yuan Qi that had grown a lot in his body, and said casually:
"As for me, you don't have to worry about me, I know it well."
Before he finished speaking, he He slowly raised his hand, and a necklace appeared in his palm. The blue clam beads looked even more dazzling under the water light.
Song Lingxue’s eyes brightened slightly and she reached out to grab it.
She doesn't like jewelry. In the past, when she was in the Song Dynasty, she always dressed simply, but Chu Zheng remembered to bring her a gift, which was enough to make people happy.
"I spent some time looking for the remaining martial arts wall. It has been completely repaired, which will save you a lot of detours."
Chu Zheng took a breath and rubbed the tooth marks on his shoulders and neck. , feeling a little helpless.
Song Lingxue's habit of marking his body always reminds him of certain animals.
Hearing the remnant of the martial arts wall, Song Lingxue's attention was instantly drawn back, and she was overjoyed for a moment: "Where is it?"
In the martial arts, she was now as if she was touching Crossing the river with stones is difficult, and every step requires a lot of effort. We are in urgent need of a guiding light.
Chu Zheng stood up and walked out of the Lingchi, put on his robes, and walked into the inner room. Song Lingxue hurriedly followed.
The fully restored martial arts wall is about three feet wide and nearly half a foot long. The supernatural power mark on the top and the complete exercise route map are clearly visible.
The moment she saw the Xuantian Martial Wall, Song Lingxue couldn't take her eyes away.
For a martial arts monk who is exploring, the lifelong efforts left by a martial god are worth more than all treasures.
Song Lingxue was fascinated by what she saw. Chu Zheng did not interrupt, exited the door and walked towards the mountainside.
Li Mingzhou and other martial arts monks were arranged on the mountainside. The temperature here was not as oppressive as that on the top of the mountain, so they could live more comfortably.
Without Li Mingzhou, the possibility of Song Lingxue coming into contact with the original remnant of martial arts was slim.
Without Song Lingxue's martial arts cultivation as a cover, it would have been difficult for him to escape the search of several holy places at first. This helped him buy an extremely precious time.
From this point of view, Li Mingzhou was very kind to him.
Long time no see, Li Mingzhou seems to be more energetic than he looked at first. At first glance, he looks like he is only in his forties. His hair is black and shiny, his energy and blood are extremely strong, and his cultivation is completely stable at the second level of Yuangang Realm. .
The remaining martial arts great masters have also successfully condensed Qi into Gang.
With living examples, their path will be much easier.
Although Taixuan Holy Land is a bit unbearably hot, its aura of heaven and earth is much stronger than that of the outside world, and cultivation here is much faster than that of the outside world.
These great masters of martial arts are already quite old. They are used to the wind and waves. They have already learned to adapt to the situation, and they don’t seem to be uncomfortable at the moment.
“Chu Zheng? Why are you here?!”
Li Mingzhou couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Chu Zheng.
Their information is very limited, and they don’t know much about the outside world. They know very little about Chu Zheng’s current situation, but they only know that he is in danger now.
"Li Dutong." Chu Zheng greeted with a smile.
"I am still in charge of everything now." Li Mingzhou shook his head, his expression slightly gloomy.
From an ordinary warrior, he directly came into contact with a holy land for cultivating immortals.
This span was difficult for many monks to complete in a lifetime, but he did it in an instant. It can only be said that it was a trick of fate.
"I'm here to give you something." As he spoke, Chu Zheng turned over his hand and took out a rubbing:
"You gave me a scrap of the drawing. , I will give you a complete copy today."
"This..."
Li Mingzhou was stunned for a moment, looking at the rubbing in Chu Zheng's hand, his breath dropped.
No one knows the weight of that fragment of the map better than him. It is by relying on that fragment of the map that he can deduce part of the path after martial arts.
The reason why Song Lingxue was able to condense Qi into Gang so quickly is inseparable from this.
"It is not easy for us to survive now. Isn't this picture too precious..."
After coming back to his senses, Li Mingzhou hesitated for a moment. He didn't feel that I helped Chu Zheng a lot, mostly with a little effort.
Now that they are still alive, able to continue to practice martial arts, and are inseparable from Chu Zheng, they have already inherited their kindness.
"It's just a rubbing."
Chu Zheng put the rubbing into Li Mingzhou's hands and said in a deep voice:
"You guys just practice here with peace of mind and watch the changes. I'll find a way."
The original scrap of the picture was also very important to Li Mingzhou. Li Mingzhou still gave it to him. Chu Zheng always remembered this favor.
It is still some time before the martial arts masters arrive. Li Mingzhou and others may not have the only option to leave the Cangyun Realm with the martial arts masters.
Things have taken a slight turn for the better.
If it were not for the desperate situation, Chu Zheng would not want people like Song Lingxue and Li Mingzhou to leave the Cangyun Realm with the people in the Martial Palace.
The universe is too big and the starry sky is too vast. It is difficult for ordinary monks to find out where the boundary is in their lifetime.
Once separated, it is difficult to say whether there will be a chance to see each other again.
For the universe, Chu Zheng had a certain concept in his previous life. This kind of distance is often calculated in millions of light years. Just hearing about it is enough to make people despair.
"It was me who got you into trouble."
Li Mingzhou felt a little ashamed. All along, he had only thought that it was because of him that Song Lingxue had reached this point and alarmed the Holy Land.
If he hadn't taken Song Lingxue to find the remaining martial arts wall, maybe nothing would have happened.
"Don't think too much, the current situation has nothing to do with you." Chu Zheng frowned slightly. He couldn't explain the reason to Li Mingzhou.
After a while, Chu Zheng left the residence of the martial arts masters and went straight to the Dan Hall of Taixuan Holy Land without stopping at all.
He didn't want to waste time, he wanted to improve his Dao foundation as soon as possible and speed up the progress of his cultivation.
Without strength, everything is just talk.
…………
…………
The Dantang is located on a spiritual peak in the center of Taixuan, not far from the main peak. The temperature here, It is significantly higher than other areas.
With Chu Zheng's current level of cultivation, he is slightly sweating when approaching this place. It is estimated that ordinary spiritual spring realm monks need to use spiritual energy to protect their bodies before they can get close.
The surface of Lingfeng is a bare rock wall. The entire Lingfeng mountain has been hollowed out and has many alchemy rooms extending in all directions.
When Taixuan was at its peak, the alchemy room here was in short supply and was almost full every day.
Nowadays, most of them have been idle for countless years. The doors of most of the alchemy rooms are covered with thick dust and there are no footprints.
After entering the mountain road, the temperature suddenly rose. The breath breathed into the body was like a burning fire, burning the heart and lungs.
Chu Zheng calmed down the breath in his body and went down, and soon entered a grotto.
The grotto is more than thirty feet in length and width, and in the center is a pill furnace nearly ten feet high, with faint blue flames burning brightly at the bottom of the furnace.
After entering the grotto, the surrounding temperature dropped a little. Chu Zheng could see the clues at a glance. The hot breath had been absorbed by the alchemy furnace, and it was contained within without any leakage. This stove must be a rare treasure.
“The Son.”
Gong Rulong stood beside the alchemy furnace with his hands behind his hands, nodding and saying hello. He had already noticed Chu Zheng as soon as he approached this place.
“I came here rashly and disturbed the elder’s alchemy.” Chu Zheng bowed.
"It doesn't matter, refining alchemy does not require full concentration all the time. What is the Holy Son's business?"
Gong Rulong waved his hand and moved his eyes back to the alchemy furnace.
“This disciple wants to obtain some spiritual objects to improve the quality of his Immortal Foundation.” Chu Zheng said bluntly.
Hearing this, Gong Rulong's eyes moved slightly, he gently stroked his long snow-white beard, and said slightly curiously: "May I ask what level of Immortal Base the Holy Son is now?"
"Sixth level."
"It is indeed a bit low. It must be because the practice environment was poor and there was a lack of spiritual objects when the Taoist foundation was built."
"Elder's wisdom, it is indeed the case." Chu Zheng complimented.
The Immortal Foundation is divided into three, six or nine levels. Only those above the seventh level are considered superior and have the qualifications to become immortals.
The best among the top-grade immortal bones have a certain chance of condensing a seven-layer immortal foundation.
With his current super-grade immortal bones, the immortal foundation he built should have started at the seventh level, unless there were some problems during the foundation construction.
From this perspective, Gong Rulong’s guess is not problematic at all.
It’s just that he had the Immortal Foundation first, and then the Immortal Bones grew later. There is a slight deviation in the order, so naturally it cannot be explained by normal reasoning.
"The Son will wait."
Gong Rulong raised his hand and fired a spiritual secret, which was submerged into the alchemy furnace. Under the alchemy furnace, the fire intensity suddenly changed.
A moment later, the fire under the alchemy furnace suddenly burst out and was swallowed by Gong Rulong, followed by a soft sound.
Bang——
The heavy alchemy furnace cauldron lid flew high, dozens of spiritual lights flew out from it, and fell into Gong Rulong's palm, and then he threw it casually, He threw one towards Chu Zheng:
"The Holy Son took a look and saw the quality of this furnace of elixir."
Chu Zheng took it subconsciously, and the prompts from the panel quickly came to his mind.
[Soul Purifying Pill (Level 4): Soul-like elixir, which can cleanse the impurities in the soul and improve cultivation. When the elixir is formed, the heat is too high and a small part of the potency is lost, but it is still good. Master’s masterpiece, repairable (0/20)]
“The elixir refined by the elders is of the highest quality.”
Chu Zheng was a little surprised and refined the fourth-level elixir. , such an understatement, Gong Rulong's attainments in alchemy are indeed astonishing.
The elixir he holds in his hand is extremely precious to the Divine Infant cultivators and is priceless in the outside world.
"There are some flaws in this furnace elixir. Maybe the Holy Son can tell?" Gong Rulong asked casually.
"It should be that I was in a hurry when collecting the elixir, which resulted in some loss of potency. I disturbed the elder and damaged a batch of high-grade elixirs."
Hearing this, Chu Zheng only thought that Gong Rulong used this to express some dissatisfaction and immediately apologized.
“Do you still know how to make alchemy?”
Gong Rulong originally just asked casually, but after hearing Chu Zheng’s answer, he couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
With Chu Zheng's current speed of improvement in cultivation, it is a bit exaggerated that he still has enough energy to dabble in alchemy.
"I know a little bit about it. I only know how to distinguish the quality of pills, but I don't dare to explain them." Chu Zheng shook his head immediately.
“It would be a waste of your eyesight not to learn how to make alchemy.”
Gong Rulong sighed, his face filled with regret, but he did not let Chu Zheng practice the art of alchemy. idea.
For a monster like Chu Zheng, there is no need to waste energy on such a small path. If the progress of one's own cultivation is delayed because of alchemy, the gain outweighs the loss.
"There are also a few Sky Flame Grasses in the treasure house, which are used to improve the quality of the Immortal Foundation. They are just right. The Holy Son will wait a moment. I will go and come back."
Before he finished speaking, he disappeared from the grotto. The traces of Gong Rulong were found.
After a moment, Gong Rulong turned around again, and a foot-long exotic grass appeared in his palm. It was divided into six leaves. The leaves were edgeless and red like blood, like clusters of burning fireworks.
"The Sky Flame Herb is extremely powerful and needs to be swallowed six times. This bottle of Snow Lotus Pill can protect the Holy Son's internal organs and reduce torture."
Gong Ru Long Mingming thought very carefully and handed over the Sky Flame Grass and a jade bottle:
"Holy Son, I will serve you here. I will protect you."
[Sky Flame Grass (Fifth Level): The best spiritual thing, a spiritual grass that grows retrogradely in the divine flames from the sky, using wood to overcome the fire. , which can greatly improve the affinity for fire spiritual energy. 】
[Snow Lotus Pill (Level 3): It is refined from the 3,000-year-old nine-leaf snow lotus. It is extremely cold in nature and should be taken with caution. The cold air can easily damage the internal organs and is difficult to remove. 】
Chu Zheng's expression changed and he did not refuse. He immediately tore off a leaf, sat down cross-legged, poured out a snow lotus pill, and swallowed it together.
Fifth-level spiritual objects are of great use to monks in the Divine Transformation Realm, and their medicinal properties are naturally extremely powerful. Chu Zheng is not afraid of pain, so it is naturally good for him to suffer less.
At the entrance of the Sky Flame Grass, it instantly turned into a ball of extremely blazing energy. It was attracted by the fire element in the Dantian and went straight to Xiadan.
This energy passes through the organs along the way, causing an unbearable burning pain.
The cold Snow Lotus Pill can only play a certain role in resisting. The so-called hard-to-eliminate cold air has no way to hide in front of the Sky Flame Grass, and is consumed at an alarming rate.
Chu Zheng concentrated his energy and sent this energy into his Dantian.
The Fire Dao Foundation shook with a bang, glowed slightly, and immediately began to expand and transform. The other four Dao Foundations were squeezed and retreated to the side.
Click——
After a while, the immortal bones behind Chu Zheng’s head stretched, and the speed of absorbing spiritual energy increased. The fire path foundation rose one level without any obstruction, and entered the seventh level.
A seven-level immortal foundation means the qualifications to become an immortal, but this is far from reaching the upper limit of Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng opened his eyes, once again tore off a piece of Sky Flame Grass and stuffed it into his mouth, and continued to improve the Fire Dao Foundation.
After swallowing two pieces of Sky Flame Grass again, the red foundation rose again, rising another level, reaching the eighth level!
With the eight-level Taoist foundation, it is almost certain to pass through the Immortal Tribulation and enter the Realm of True Immortality.
After a long while, Chu Zheng opened his eyes again, poured all the snow lotus pills in the jade bottle into his mouth, and then ate the remaining three pieces of Sky Flame Grass, together with the roots, in batches.
Until the power of the Sky Flame Grass was completely digested, Chu Zheng’s Taoist base transformed again and suddenly grew taller.
The rich red fairy light overflowed from the surface of Chu Zheng's body, dyeing the entire grotto red.
“Nine levels of Immortal Foundation, the capital of the Immortal King…”
Seeing this, Gong Rulong looked a little dazed for a moment. The Sky Flame Grass was only an assistant, and it was Chu Zheng's own potential that was stimulated.
Nine-level Immortal Foundation, stepping into the True Immortal, is already a sure thing, and becoming the Heavenly King is also inseparable, and has the qualification to touch the realm of the Immortal King.
Most of the ordinary super-grade immortal bones that enter the Tao are at the level of the eighth-level immortal base. There are very few who can cast the ninth-level immortal base.
Chu Zheng frowned slightly and began to sort out the chaotic five elements of Qi in his Dantian.
This time, the improvement of the fire element was too violent, causing the five elements in the Dantian to become unbalanced again.
Nowadays, the Fire Dao Foundation occupies half of the Dantian, almost dominating it, pushing the remaining four Dao Foundations to the other side.
Without the medicinal support of the Five Elements Shaping Yuan Pill, the balance of the Five Elements would be shattered in an instant. By then, the built foundation would even be at risk of collapse.
After a while, Chu Zheng slowly opened his eyes, feeling a little disappointed.
After the Daoji was raised to the ninth level, he vaguely realized that there was room for further progress above the ninth level!
However, he can only stop here for the time being, at least until the other Dao Foundations are upgraded, he even has to suppress the power of the Fire Dao Foundation.
