I Live Forever With My Proficiency

Chapter 447 Divine Pill

Year after year.

[Realm: Gold Core (seventh level): 11/100. ]

Chen Ping looked at the numbers on the panel and fell into deep thought.

Five years after entering the seventh level of Gold Core, the progress bar has only increased by '11' points. This is the effect after the 'Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Tianzhang' has reached its full level and there are no obstacles in understanding the skills.

At this rate, it will take at least 50 years to reach the eighth level of Gold Core.

Although I had expected the slow pace of the Gold Core Late Stage, I still feel a little melancholy at this moment.

Fifty years is too long.

If there is no chaos, you don't have to worry too much about time to cultivate immortality quietly. My life span is nearly 600 years, but now I am less than 200 years old. I still have a long life left to live, so I can take my time.

But the 260-year period mentioned by Xu Liang has arrived in an instant.

Danger may come at any time.

A small realm alone takes fifty years. How can we achieve ease in the future?

Time waits for no one.

Gold Core Late Stage is different from Gold Core Early and Middle Stage.

The initial stage of Gold Core is a continuation of the Foundation Building Stage, focusing on laying a solid foundation.

The middle stage of Gold Core is the bridge between ‘Basics’ and ‘Primordial Spirit’, focusing on tempering the state of mind.

Gold Core Late Stage, especially after the second Gold Core Heart Tribulation, its focus has begun to shift to the tempering of Primordial Spirit. Whether it is the virtual spirit, the entity's Dantian, etc., they all focus on serving the Primordial Spirit. Tempered.

Gold Core Late Stage is a fresh start.

So slow.

However, although it is refining the Primordial Spirit, it does not require the corresponding Soul Refining technique like the Foundation Building Stage. You only need to continue practicing the main technique, and you can only continue to practice the main technique.

The Primordial Spirit tempering in Gold Core Late Stage is not simply about tempering the Primordial Spirit, but about tempering the environment in which the Primordial Spirit exists in the Dantian and tempering the properties of the Primordial Spirit out of the body. These determine its tempering and state of mind, The tempering of the body, etc. is integrated.

‘It seems that we need to find some popular science information to see if there is any way to increase the speed. ’

Chen Ping takes back the panel.

He walked to the desk and sat down, flicking his fingers to make the flame of the Sparkstone lamp burn brighter.

He spread out a rectangular piece of animal skin on the desk, took out his pen and ink, and began to write down the confusing parts of Xu Liang's "The Lost Soul Eagle's Beast Control Technique".

In the past nearly twenty years, although this spell has been practiced intermittently, because the cycle is long enough, I have finally practiced this spell to the 'grandmaster' level.

Successfully peeked into Xu Liang's confusion.

In fact, although this spell seems to be wild and unconstrained, in fact it still follows the most basic mechanism of beast control, which is consistent with the underlying logic of the beast control skills that Chen Ping has practiced in the past.

This is the so-called "first principle".

Chen Ping's Nine Nether Colorful Cicada, Cloud-winged Bird, Octopus Deer, and Snow Falcon have all mastered the beast-control techniques to the full level. He has a Transcendent understanding of the beast-control techniques themselves, coupled with the guidance of the panel, Therefore, the "Lost Soul Eagle Beast Control Technique" is not too difficult for him.

At this moment, he picked up the pen, dipped it in the ink, and wrote out the confusion Xu Liang encountered one by one.

Specifically, how to practice, how to avoid going astray, and related precautions.

This confusion is not difficult to say, but it is not difficult but extremely difficult. Just like the first time, it is a question of choosing the best path among thousands of intricate and complicated ways. If there is no panel, this requires constant trial and error to succeed. The rate is extremely low.

With the guidance of the panel, you can sense which is the correct path.

Not long after, a densely written volume of animal skin was completed.

Chen Ping used his spiritual power slightly to dry the spiritual ink, and then rolled the animal skin into the storage bag.

evening.

He walked out of the Chen Mansion, walked out of Lianqi Street according to the address Xu Liang had given him before, and passed through several streets before finding Xu Liang's house.

After knocking for a while, no one opened the door.

"Stop knocking, you're dead." A female monk suddenly walked out of the next door and cursed.

Chen Ping was shocked when he heard this:

"Dead? How did you die?"

"How do I know how he died? That sloppy old man has been away for more than ten years and has not been seen back. Why is he dead? Old man, you still owe me a pill and haven't paid it back to me." The female monk complained.

Chen Ping：.

"Is Fellow Daoist his friend? Then please Fellow Daoist, please pay off his debt." The female monk looked at Chen Ping aggressively.

"No, I'm also here to collect a debt." Chen Ping said.

He ignored the female monk and turned around to walk out of the street.

Instead of going home directly, he went to the elixir shop where he originally consulted about the evil spirit elixir.

When Chen Ping explained his purpose and asked the shopkeeper about the evil spirit pill, the shopkeeper was in a daze for a while and could not remember the incident. Several years had passed.

It wasn’t until I looked through the records that I remembered:

"Ah. I did find the alchemist originally, but unfortunately he is no longer willing to refine the evil spirit pill. It's a pity."

Chen Ping felt a little regretful.

However, the 50 bottles of three-color evil spirit pills I bought last time have not been used up yet. They can last the three Xu sisters for a few more years. At most, they will have to look for them again in each store.

"Is there any brochure that introduces elixirs? Let me see if there is anything suitable that I can buy some." Chen Ping said.

"Yes, Fellow Daoist, please wait." The shopkeeper turned around and took out a folded booklet from the cabinet.

Chen Ping got the booklet and looked through it.

There are eight or nine types of elixirs suitable for Gold Core Late Stage, and there is a text introduction below each elixir.

Unfortunately, apart from general elixirs like the Qi Hui Dan, the rest are all elixirs that heal wounds, treat poisons, or have certain specific functions.

There is no pill that Chen Ping wants to increase the speed of cultivation.

It's right to think about it. Medicinal pills of Gold Core Late Stage level are not that easy to refine. Scarcity is normal, but flooding is abnormal.

Not to mention pills that increase the speed of cultivation.

Even if an alchemist refines it, I'm afraid it won't be sold in shops, right?

After leaving the elixir shop, Chen Ping returned to Lianqi Street and visited Jia Zhongshou's house.

Jiazhong was actually at home.

And there is already a Fellow Daoist who is preaching in the courtyard outside his Cave Mansion.

It's about the ancient way of refining weapons.

The two of them argued with red faces and even heads, and neither could convince the other.

Chen Ping listened for a while but didn't say anything.

When the Fellow Daoist saw that Chen Ping seemed to have trouble with Jia Zhongfa, he snorted coldly at Jia Zhongfa and said angrily:

"Hmph, I will come back the next day, master, and I will prove you wrong. He also said that he was taught by a major weapon refining sect. At this level, I can't even understand this, bah."

Jia Zhongshou's argument turned red:

"Get out, get out, what kind of level are you? Just keep going to the extreme. Sooner or later you will be beaten to death. You are at your level and you still call yourself a master, so get out."

"You wait." The Fellow Daoist cursed and walked out of the door, then went straight into the next door.

Chen Ping smiled and said nothing.

These two people are in love with each other.

"Chen Fellow Daoist, sit down. Hey, this guy is really good. He insists on coming even if he is not allowed to come. He insists on arguing with me every time he comes. I just said that there are some flaws in his method, not that No, you have to fight with me." Jia Zhong's anger has not completely subsided.

Chen Ping smiled:

"Is he also a weapon refiner?"

"Yes, he is also a weapon refiner. He still has some talent, but he likes to get into trouble. Chen Fellow Daoist has just studied weapon refinement for just a few decades, and it is still difficult to understand the controversial points of these ancient weapon refiners. When you practice in depth in the future You will know how outrageous this person's thinking is." Jia Zhong accepted and was busy pouring spiritual tea for Chen Ping.

Chen Ping smiled and said nothing.

Chen Ping actually heard what they were talking about just now. In his opinion, the two people's views have their own merits and both are from good angles.

But it doesn't seem to be the best solution.

Refining weapons, refining weapons, is also a kind of 'Tao' after all.

Everyone has his own way.

So I didn’t say anything. It's just that he just saw that Fellow Daoist's eyes were red when he was arguing, which was really a bit over the top.

The two chatted for a while about their daily practice over the years.

Finally, Chen Ping asked:

"Does Fellow Daoist Jia know anything about the Gold Core Late Stage's practice speed improvement?"

Jia Zhongshou paused after hearing the words:

"Chen Fellow Daoist Gold Core Late Stage?"

"I have just been lucky enough to enter the Gold Core Late Stage, but now I feel that my practice speed has suddenly slowed down. I want to know if there are some ways to improve it." Chen Ping smiled.

Jia Zhongshou was a little surprised at first.

But thinking of Chen Ping's wisdom when he killed Demon Race outside Tianhai City, he suddenly felt that this was normal.

Tianyin Fairy City is full of opportunities, and Fellow Daoist Chen may be lucky enough to get some opportunities.

But this is everyone's own secret. He just sighed in his heart and didn't ask any more questions.

"When it comes to ways to improve the speed of Gold Core Late Stage practice, they are generally secrets that are not shared among the major sects. There are some tricky methods, but the effect is hard to say. Some even have side effects, at the expense of other aspects of the monk's performance. It’s up to you to choose something in exchange for improving your realm.”

"However, since the Immortal Cultivation World has been operating for hundreds of millions of years, there are naturally some universal methods that are widely recognized. Among them, the most effective one is the 'Divine Pill'."

Sure enough, there is a suitable elixir.

There are no elixirs for sale in the shop.

“Where can I buy ‘Divine Pill’?” Chen Ping asked.

Jia Zhongshou recalled:

"Do you know Yiliu True Monarch on Alchemy Street?"

Seeing Chen Ping shaking his head, Jia Zhongshou introduced:

"If I remember correctly, Yi Liuzhen is the only monk in Tianyin City who is willing to openly sell the Divine Pill."

"He can refine the Nine-Line Xuan Cang Yi Divine Pill. The more lines there are on this Divine Pill, the better the effect. The Nine-Line Xuan Cang Yi Divine Pill he refined is a very amazing elixir."

Chen Ping said with joy: "How many spirit stones?"

"It is said that there are 100,000 High Grade spiritual stones."

Chen Ping:. Bitterness on eyebrows.

This is too damn expensive.

Is it because the elixir itself is so expensive? Or is it because of the high prices in Tianyin Fairy City?

High Grade Spiritual Stones costing tens of thousands.

"Is it expensive? I think it's expensive too. Damn it, it's several times more than what I make for others. But their orders are said to have been scheduled for a hundred years." Jia Zhongshou said speechlessly:

"It is said that the raw material requirements for this kind of elixir are extremely demanding, and the raw materials cost a lot of money. The key is that they may not be available for purchase. Many high-end spiritual materials cannot be cultivated and can only be found in the wild. Sometimes in order to refine the elixir, You have to go to the secret place to find the medicinal materials yourself.”

"More importantly, it is said that the success rate is extremely low. Coupled with the time it takes to collect spiritual materials, even an alchemy genius like Yiliu True Monarch sometimes takes nearly ten years to refine one."

After hearing this, Chen Ping gave up the idea of ​​buying Divine Pill.

too expensive.

Now I only have about 30,000 High Grade spiritual stones on my body.

I don’t know how much time it will take to collect 100,000 spiritual stones.

The key is that we still have to wait eighty years.

With this time, I would have already passed the seventh level of Gold Core.

Jia Zhongshou then went on to introduce some other methods, but most of the results were unsatisfactory.

Either you have to go out and take risks, and take very big risks, such as going to the ruins of the fallen immortals to understand Dao Rhyme, etc., or you have to look for treasures of heaven, materials and earth that are rare to encounter in a hundred years or rare in a thousand years.

Chen Ping thought over and over again and decided to develop it slowly on his own.

A few decades later is a few decades too late.

Jia Zhongtuan was filled with emotion:

"After entering the Gold Core Late Stage, every step has been difficult, not just the elixirs, not just the Divine Pills that are needed now. I don't know how much resources will be spent if I want to go further in the future."

"Hey, just like me, I am still a figure in the original sect. Although the sect cannot be compared with large sects like Celestial Melody Sect, it still has a lot of resources."

"Let's just say this Divine Pill. Although no one can refine the Divine Pill with nine lines, there are still sects with Divine Pills with three lines and four lines. As a result, I came here and became an Independent Cultivator. You have to fight for everything by yourself.”

"The problem is that many resources are unavailable even if you want to spend money to buy them. They are not open to us Independent Cultivators at all. If you want to buy a Divine Pill, you have to queue up for hundreds of years."

"I don't think about this anymore. I just hope that the original continent will be unblocked as soon as possible. Then I can go back to the sect and use the sect's resources to rush to the Nascent Soul realm. That would be thank God."

Chen Ping said nothing.

To him, it's the same everywhere.

On the contrary, if only from the perspective of the environment for cultivating immortals, Tianyin Immortal City is more suitable for him.

The resources here are expensive, but at least there are some good resources, such as the cyan inner demon guide, which is not available in Xihuang, but you only need to have money to buy it here.

And the environment is more stable.

But for core disciples like Jia Zhongshou, who were originally quite good in the sect, their status as Independent Cultivator made them a little confused.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Chen came here today for other matters, right?" Jia Zhong smiled.

Chen Ping nodded and said:

"I just went to Xu Liang's place and saw that he had already gone out. If Fellow Daoist Jia sees him coming back by then, please ask him to come over to see me. There are some doubts about the spiritual eagle and beast control that need to be discussed with him."

"Okay, I'll note it down. But Fellow Daoist Xu is away all year round and I don't know when he will come back." Jia Zhongfa nodded.

"..."

Returning to his courtyard from Jia's Mansion, Chen Ping decided to continue practicing hard, so he devoted himself to practicing again.

In this way, more than ten years passed again.

Several data on the panel have once again made great progress.

The life of a cultivator is so boring yet full of a sense of accomplishment.

In addition to the improvement in cultivation, the Hundred Poisons True Demonic Art has also made progress. The number of endogenous thunders in the body has increased again, and the current target of attack has changed from 'tendons' to 'bones'.

The tendons have been completely tempered, and Chen Ping's greatest perception is that spiritual power, true energy and medicinal power flow more quickly through the tendons.

If the previous network cable was a 100M network cable, it has now been upgraded to optical fiber.

Performance is greatly improved.

Since I started attacking the bones, during exercise, the bones had turned golden due to the ‘Taixu Body Refining Technique’ of the Foundation Building Stage, but now they are constantly losing their golden color.

It has now turned light yellow and continues to fade.

This day.

Fairy Dongshi, who had disappeared for decades, reappeared in Chen Ping's simple mansion, still looking the same as before - wearing a simple and elegant white robe and a white veil.

The whole face was hidden in the white mist and could not be seen clearly.

"I heard from your master before that you know some magic to ward off evil spirits?" Fairy Dong Shi looked at Chen Ping in the pavilion.

Chen Ping couldn't help but feel confused.

Xiyue even told this to Fairy Dongshi?

The relationship between the two is so good?

"I know a little bit about it." Chen Ping said, and then asked tentatively: "Did Senior Dong Shi and his master often communicate with each other before?"

Under the veil, the fairy's expression could not be seen.

Fairy Dong Shi just looked at Chen Ping. She could actually sense Chen Ping's guard against her. Or perhaps Chen Ping was always very guarded. Even though he was an old friend of his master, he did not fully open his heart. .

She originally wanted to get close to Chen Ping and get to know Chen Ping through this relationship.

But now, she couldn't help but start to think about whether this would go the other way.

She took out a box from her arms, and with a slight movement of consciousness, the box floated out from her white palm and landed gently on the stone table in front of Chen Ping:

"This is an evil bead I got by chance before. Anyway, I use it a lot, so I'll give it to you."

Evil beads?

Chen Ping looked up at the veiled woman in front of him.

He picked up the box, opened it and looked at it. Lying inside the box was a blood-red bead, which was also wrapped with a hollow jade sphere.

A trace of evil spirit is overflowing from the jade sphere.

The evil spirit is pure.

Although I have never heard of this thing, at first glance, it seems that it is not vulgar.

"Thank you, Senior Dongshi. This evil bead is indeed what this junior needs right now. Since senior can't use it, I will accept it." Chen Ping picked up the box and said:

"But no reward will be given for no merit. The senior will estimate the price for it, and the junior will buy it according to the price. You cannot cause any loss to the senior for nothing."

The air became quiet.

"Seriously want to buy it?" Fairy Dongshi looked at Chen Ping with a cold tone.

"Of course, yes." Chen Ping smiled and said:

"Senior may not know something, but I don't use many spiritual stones on weekdays, so I still have a lot of spiritual stones in reserve."

"200,000 High Grade Spiritual Stones." Dong Shi said calmly.

Chen Ping was about to put the box back into his cuffs, but his movements suddenly froze when he heard this.

What the hell?

So expensive?

What is the concept of 200,000 High Grade spiritual stones?

"Ah, haha." Chen Ping smiled awkwardly: "Well, junior, it suddenly occurred to me that I bought some evil spirits pills a few days ago, and I won't be able to use these evil beads for the time being. It's not a problem with the spirit stones, senior Please take it back.”

Chen Ping pushed the box back.

what?

200,000 High Grade spiritual stones? I couldn't even bear to spend 100,000 yuan to buy myself a Divine Pill. How could I spend 200,000 yuan to raise three evil spirits?

When I arrived at Tianyin Fairy City, I realized that money was really worthless.

In the past, in the Western Wilderness, only the Tianyan Sect had the Tribulation Tower, which contained only black and white inner demon guides. After arriving here, I discovered that there was actually a higher level cyan inner demon attractor, and the price was as high as 10,000 High Grade spiritual stones per month.

In the Western Wilderness, there was no evil spirit pill, and one had to go to the far east of the Piaomiao Continent.

What's more, this kind of evil bead is many times higher than the High Level of evil spirit pill.

In a small place, there are not many high-end products, just low-level things. On the contrary, I feel that my life is very nourishing.

Now that I have seen the colorful flowers outside, I realize that I am the wild boy who came to the city.

Chen Ping pushed the box back, but Fairy Dongshi did not put it away. She just looked at Chen Ping quietly.

The box was placed on the stone table.

Chen Ping felt an invisible sense of oppression in Fairy Dongshi's eyes. He smiled sarcastically, stretched out his hand to take the box back, and said:

"Then, I will accept the Evil Pearl, junior. I owe you the spiritual stone first."

Seeing Fairy Dongshi still staring at him, Chen Ping said:

"It's bad, it's just a matter of buying it. Since the senior is a friend of the master, the junior will accept it generously. If the senior is useful in the future, I can sleep with the junior. Just ask, the junior will never refuse."

After a pause, he felt that this sentence was too full. After all, what he said now was a kind of promise, so he said:

"Juniors may not be able to help with things like burning, killing, and robbing. I am too weak. To be honest with seniors, even the early Gold Core monks were able to push me to the ground and beat me."

After a pause, he remembered that he had been fooled by Xiyue before, and continued:

"It's not appropriate for juniors to go treasure hunting in secret places or something like that. Juniors don't have a good sense of direction. They can't tell the difference between east, west, north and south, and they can easily get lost."

After one second, continue:

"This junior is even less good at fighting with others. This junior has always been kind to others. He has never killed anyone or sparred with others."

After that, continue to add:

"Don't ask juniors for things like attacking cities and forging alliances to defend against enemies. Juniors have social phobia and will feel uncomfortable when in contact with strangers. They like to be alone."

"."

After burning the incense, Chen Ping said:

"In short, the above-mentioned dangerous things are not suitable for juniors. It's not that juniors are unwilling, and it's not that juniors are afraid. We monks are competing with the sky and the earth, so there is nothing to be afraid of, right?"

"The senior can give such a valuable property to the junior. The senior is the friend of the master. The junior should be willing to go through fire and water for the senior. The main reason is that the junior is too weak and is afraid of losing the senior's face."

Fairy Dongshi turned her head, looked at the tulips in the yard, and said softly:

"Apart from these, are you willing to do everything else?"

"Both are willing." Chen Ping said confidently.

Fairy Dongshi looked at the tulip, wondering what she was thinking. After a while, she turned back to Chen Ping and said in a slow voice:

"Do you want to unveil me?"

ah?

Chen Ping felt that his thinking was not enough. Aren't you talking about repaying a favor?

Why are you suddenly talking about the veil again?

And, what does it mean to ask yourself if you are interested in unveiling him?

Chen Ping remembered what she said about her disfigurement.
