Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Time flies, time flies, and hundreds of years fly by.

The Blackwater River is still the Blackwater River. But there are many differences.

"Lord Dragon, take off!"

With gongs and drums roaring and firecrackers blasting, tens of millions of people gathered by the Blackwater River to visit temple fairs and worship the Dragon King.

Eight strong men, carrying the stone statue of the Dragon King, paraded through the streets.

Many farmers came to various places in the fish farm and dumped bags of fish food.

In the river, there are many swimming fish competing for food, including many giants and even strange creatures.

But everyone was not surprised and kept pouring the fish food. There were even children watching, pointing and laughing.

"I wonder if the Dragon Prince will show up tonight?"

"Needless to say, it will definitely happen. Today is the second day of February. The dragon raises his head. It is a great day for the Dragon King. How can he not come and enjoy it with the people?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the Dragon King, there are no more water monsters in the Blackwater River to eat people, and the surrounding area is even more prosperous!"

"I heard that the temple blessings of the Dragon King Temple are all disciples of the Dragon King. The Dragon King passed down many farming methods and blessed with good weather and good weather, which greatly increased food production and resulted in bumper harvests every year."

"Look at those men. The statue of the Dragon King weighing tens of thousands of kilograms. They are carrying it on their shoulders like cotton burdens without any effort at all. Sure enough, they have all learned the immortal method from the Dragon King and will become immortals in the future."

"..."

Everyone was talking about it, and it was even more heated.

At the same time, in the Blackwater River.

The black water is deeper and the spiritual energy is stronger.

Every waterway is guarded, with soldiers, generals, eels, dragons, snakes and pythons patrolling back and forth.

Looking closely, under the heavy black water, there is a black crystal dragon palace, which is the black water dragon king's palace.

Each of the four gates of the Divine Mansion is guarded by four naval forces.

The general of the south gate has the head of a dragon, wearing golden armor with a chain, holding a three-pointed two-pronged fork, and the whole body is entangled with lightning. He looks so majestic, it is the general of the Ministry of Electric Power, Eel Dragon Jiao!

The general from the North Gate has bulging eyes and a round belly, standing on one foot. He is gilded all over and has only a red shawl behind him. He is bare-handed and very powerful. He is none other than the Golden Toad King, the general of Doubu!

The first general of the East Gate is also the head of a dragon. He just hisses and spits out a long letter. He is transformed from a snake. He has a Xuanshui magic sword hanging on his waist. He is graceful, enchanting and touching. He is the general of the Dragon Department and the heroine Bai Jiaojiao!

General Ximen, with black skin and white belly, is extremely fat. He carries a pair of eight-edged golden melon hammers, which seems to have the power to break mountains. He is the fat-bellied general of Xuanbu!

Four gates later, in the water palace, I saw the clam spirit as the attendant again, bright and moving, and the tortoise as the prime minister, looking calm and calm.

"Quick, quick, quick, you girls, how come your hands and feet are slower than this old guy like me?"

An old man with a turtle shell on his back and a crown on his head urged a group of clam maids: "Send these wine and food in quickly, don't delay Lord Long's drinking."

"yes!"

The maids laughed coquettishly in unison, carrying wine and food, and entered the palace.

In the extremely vast hall, there is a green dragon with a body of nine feet, sitting on the dragon chair in a very human posture.

Many maids wandered around the palace, pouring jars of fine wine into large vat-like wine glasses, and cooking rice with grains as big as melons and fruits, as well as beef and sheep...

Yes, for cooking, this water palace can also kindle fire and cook cooked food.

"Longjun, please use it!"

"Hmm~!"

Xu Yang stretched out his short claws, picked up the wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, then threw a few roasted beef and sheep into his mouth, chewed the belly, and the whole dragon lay down on the dragon chair with great satisfaction. .

As mentioned before, herring is lazy in nature and prefers silence to movement.

The physical instinct has a great influence, making Xu Yang's temperament more and more lazy, and he likes to enjoy more and more. Every once in a while, he has to live a life of "wine pond and meat forest".

Compared to practicing hard day and night, the diligent body is simply not too comfortable.

Xu Yang had no way to do this. The instinct of his body was like this, and he couldn't resist it completely. It would be good if he could not be affected by the "dragon nature of nature". If the "fish nature of nature" didn't relax a little, then this body My body may go crazy.

Of course, instinct is instinct, and it has a little influence, but it doesn't completely influence actions.

Over the past hundred years, Xu Yang has done a lot of things.

For example...

"How's it going at the Spiritual Medicine Garden?"

After drinking another glass of spiritual wine, Xu Yang, who was slightly tipsy, lowered his eyes and asked the woman serving on the side.

The woman did not dare to be negligent and said repeatedly: "Reporting to Master, under the nourishment of spiritual energy, three batches of elixirs will mature this month. Master, can you pick them yourself, or let me and other disciples do it for you."

Xu Yang slumped on the dragon chair and waved his paws casually: "You go ahead."

"yes!"

The woman nodded and took it to heart.

She is Xu Yang's eldest disciple, one of the few human beings in Shui Mansion.

More than sixty years ago, a group of people suddenly came to the Blackwater River, shouting about offering sacrifices to the Dragon King, and then threw her and several boys and girls down.

Then... Xu Yang had a group of disciples and began to contact the human race in this world, officially extending his power beyond the Blackwater River.

He has no plans to fight for world domination again.

In this world, immortals and gods appear. Although most of the great gods are sleeping now, Xu Yang still doesn't dare to be too ostentatious. He just wants to be a salted fish in the Blackwater River.

When the power is extended, it is just to inquire about information and collect elixirs. There is no other intention.

In addition to recruiting and teaching these human disciples, Xu Yang's own strength and the development of the water tribe have not fallen behind.

For a hundred years, he visualized himself and gained more. He created the technique of transforming fish and dragon into the "Shape Transformation Realm", and successfully practiced it with the help of the Black Water Seal. Now he is a master of dragon ball, comparable to the golden elixir. The great demon in disguise.

As for the aquarium, because they took over the Blackwater Divine Seal, they completely gained control of the Blackwater River and were able to use the earth's spiritual energy at will. Therefore, the breeding industry has been further improved. The number of blackwater aquariums has skyrocketed, and various departments of the navy have developed rapidly. .

Today, there are 100,000 naval troops, divided into four divisions: "Xuan", "Dragon", "Dou" and "Dian". The generals of each division are big demons transformed from golden elixirs, and they have hundreds of foundation-building generals who have become demon bodies. , as for the monster-level soldiers, there are tens of thousands of them.

It is not easy to cultivate the golden elixir, but it is even more difficult to cultivate the demon. The fact that these four generals can become great demons who have mastered the inner elixir in just a hundred years is all due to his "initiation".

It is not only the enlightenment of breeding skills, but also the enlightenment of land power.

That's right, the authority of the earth can also enlighten the spirit. In combination with the enlightenment characteristics of breeding skills, the two effects are superimposed to achieve such an advance.

Regardless of strength or power, the progress is huge.

There is only one thing that stands still.

That is, the earth only cultivates the Dharma, and the spirit develops.

After practicing, Xu Yang discovered how difficult it was to practice the law here.

It can be divided into five realms, ordinary land, spiritual land, spiritual realm, blessed land, and cave heaven!

The Blackwater River currently belongs to the spiritual land, but this spiritual land is not his fault, but the result of the Blackwater Seal operating independently, gathering spiritual energy, and improving the earth's essence for thousands of years.

A hundred years ago, when he took over the Divine Seal and started practicing on earth, the Black Water River was the spiritual land.

A hundred years later, he worked hard and improved the quality of the Blackwater River several times. He also transplanted many spiritual objects, and even accepted people's incense and worship, and the people volunteered to support it, but the Blackwater River was still a spiritual place.

Although there are high and low levels among spiritual lands, with the help of many skills and characteristics, a hundred years of hard work have not been able to advance to a higher level. This fully shows how difficult it is to practice in this land.

In fact, earthly cultivation is not measured in hundreds of years at all, but in thousands of years.

It took him thousands of years to take over as the Blackwater Dragon Lord before he could raise the Blackwater River to the realm of "high-grade spiritual land". However, as a result, the demon world invaded and collapsed in one fell swoop.

Now, Xu Yang took over and started operating from a "low-grade spiritual land". After hundreds of years of hard work, he was able to reach the threshold of a "medium-grade spiritual land".

In this way, if you want to be promoted to a high-grade spiritual land, and then turn the high-grade spiritual land into a spiritual realm, and the blessed land Cave Heaven after the spiritual realm, you may not be able to succeed in hundreds of thousands or millions of years.

It can be seen how difficult the path of earth is.

Fortunately, the earth only practices the Dharma and does not hinder the practice.

It's like...a profession?

Yes, a profession, a profession called "god".

The level of the priesthood will only affect the effect of the priesthood and will not limit the improvement in other aspects.

Theoretically speaking, even if Xu Yang's earthly cultivation has never entered the realm and he will always be a small river god, it will not prevent him from practicing martial arts and stepping into the realm of a true martial god.

The priesthood is the priesthood, and the cultivation level is the cultivation level. A high priesthood is certainly strong, but a low priesthood is not necessarily weak.

That's the logic.

Therefore, Xu Yang didn't care much and continued to live his salty life, raising fish, growing grass, turning on a furnace from time to time, practicing elixirs, improving his skill proficiency, and then studying the talisman and seal formations, eating and drinking at the same time Keep practicing and practice the Fish-Dragon Transformation Technique unhurriedly...

In this way, more than a hundred years have passed.

His alchemy skills have been greatly improved, and now there is a 70% probability that he can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The probability of 70% is really not low. You must know that for a third-level alchemy master, the probability of refining the Foundation Establishment Pill is only 70% to 80%, of which 40% is achieved through advanced cultivation, spiritual thoughts and mana control. .

Xu Yang is now also a transformation demon comparable to the Golden Pill, so excluding the 40% chance brought by his cultivation advantage, he now has a 30% chance of refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

You can try it. In fact, he is already trying it. Every once in a while, he will consume the power of his soul to transmit the elixir cultivated in the Blackwater River to the real world.

Now, the elixir reserves in the real world are enough for him to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill three times.

This is the hundred-year accumulation of Heishui River.

Very rewarding.

But there are still regrets, that is... the technique!

Although there are immortals and gods in this world, that happened tens of millions of years ago.

Thousands of years ago, the war between gods and demons was so violent that the world collapsed. Countless immortals, earth creatures, humans and gods perished, not to mention mortals. Except for some who were lucky enough to be protected by the great gods and escaped into the paradise of caves, all others were basically wiped out.

The current human race is all a new human race, and there is no inheritance from the ancient immortal gods at all.

The inheritance of the ancient gods and gods, the related martial arts books, and the Taoist Jade Slips were all destroyed in that war. Those who survived could not withstand the passage of time. A god like the Blackwater God's Palace can be left behind. Mansion, a divine seal, is a fluke among flukes.

For a hundred years, Xu Yang has been trying to find the "Immortal Cave" and "Gods' Relics", but he has found nothing. There are a few famous mountain monasteries of great gods, but he, a "black family", does not dare to go there rashly, so that now he does not even have high-level skills. There is no method, and the practice is still based on the fish-dragon transformation modified by oneself.

This made Xu Yang a little distressed.

He lacks skills.

Martial Arts has only deduced it to the realm of "Bao Dan" so far.

The same goes for the cultivation techniques. All the cultivators' techniques in his hand only contain the content of the foundation building chapter, and there is no golden elixir chapter. There is not even a foundation building method to break through the golden elixir.

Because this is also controlled by the Jindan Sect, if you want the Jindan Cultivation Technique, you can only go to the Jindan Sect to buy and exchange it. However, the techniques in Xu Yang's hands are all obtained from Qi training monks, and the strongest ones are Bai Longsan. Fierce people, how can they have the capital to contact the Jindan Sect?

Currently, Xu Yang only has one technique that contains the Golden Elixir chapter, and that is the Fish-Dragon Transformation.

This fish-dragon transformation was created based on his own fish-dragon body. Rather than creating it, it is more about fueling the flames and letting nature take its course, accelerating the evolution of the "fish-dragon body". The original human body is basically Cultivation cannot be replicated.

Therefore, his main goal now is to obtain the inheritance of immortals and gods in this life. It is best to cultivate all the way to Daluo Jinxian, and no longer have to worry about the problems of skills.

only……

Just when Xu Yang was thinking about how to find the inheritance of the immortals.

By the Heishui River, the gongs and drums are noisy. It is the climax of the temple fair.

suddenly……

Disastrous clouds surged in, covering the sky and the sun!

"Huh?"

"Why is it dark?"

"Isn't it going to rain?"

"Why would the Dragon King bring rain today?"

Everyone was surprised and looked up, only to see the dark sky covering the sky.

In the darkness, another streak of blood light was seen, condensing and unfolding, turning from a crescent moon into a half moon, and then from a half moon into a full moon, illuminating the sky in an alluring and ominous manner.

The blood moon is in the sky!

"boom!!!"

In an instant, the water surface exploded, and a dragon shadow flew out of the black water river, rushing into the sky, staring at the blood moon in amazement.

"The sky is high, you are defeated!"

At the same time, between heaven and earth, an indescribable voice sounded loudly, announcing to all living beings in the three realms.

"I am Mara, the Lord of the Six Heavens of the Demon Realm, the Great Demon King of Freedom!"

"This world belongs to me!"
