I will survive with proficiency

"Eighteenth Junior Sister, Fellow Daoist Chen, this is your invitation."

In the reception room of Bixian Pavilion, a young monk handed a purple-decorated jade slip to Chen Ping and Shiba.

According to Shiba's introduction, the young man in front of him is the senior disciple and senior brother of Quanyang Zhenzun of Tianyin Sect.

"What invitation?" Shiba was confused.

Chen Ping took the jade slip and looked at it.

Purple represents nobility and joy in this world of immortality, but Chen Ping vaguely sensed an ominous premonition.

The jade slip was slightly refined on the spot, and the spiritual consciousness entered the jade slip.

My heart couldn't help but tremble.

It was indeed an invitation to become a temporary provider for the confinement.

Where is this invitation?

This is a reminder from hell.

[Ten thousand years ago, the devil invaded and the human world was in turmoil; the demons came to the fore, and the power was up to them. At that time, people were threatening, and no one dared to attack. In the end, ten thousand sects were defeated, and the ancestors were burned. The insult is still there, and it will forever be a lesson to the world. Today, the demonic path is in turmoil again, and the prison of the passage is in danger... Only by Jiang Ying to revive the gods and strengthen the ancient prison, to slay the barbarians and rebel against the devil, and to uphold the way of heaven, can the immortal path prosper and the light is clear. ]

[…]

[Fellow Taoist is the leader of the human world, a disciple of Xiyue, and his master traces back to the source of imprisonment... The sound of the class is stirred and the north wind rises, and the sword energy rushes to the south to fight for peace. Silence makes the mountains collapse, shouting makes the situation change. With the help of Taoist friends, the time and place are favorable and the people are harmonious. If you use this to firmly imprison yourself, how can you not be destroyed by the enemy? If you try to achieve success with this, what can you do? ]

The invitation contained hundreds of words.

It's nothing more than alarmist talk first.

Speaking of the current invasion of demons and the turmoil in the human world, this is only a small amount of turmoil among demons. Once the confinement is further broken, the war between humans and demons tens of thousands of years ago may come to the human world again.

By then, the human world will be further devastated.

Maintaining the safety of the human world is everyone’s responsibility.

Then there will be a burst of praise for the person you invited. First, they will tell you all about you, giving you a certain degree of deterrence and letting you know that they are capable.

Then tell the invitee that you are gifted.

It can't work without you.

It cannot be repaired without your confinement.

But this statement was written more like a mobilization order to defeat the demons. It did not mention what the invitees should do? What harm will there be?

Eighteen was silent after reading it.

The appearance of the white-bearded Taoist has caused a lot of noise in the past few years. She knew something about it, but she didn't know much.

"The eighteenth junior sister's invitation is a sub-card of the sect's invitation, which means that the eighteenth junior sister's name has been entered into the sect's directory."

"Daoyou Chen is not a member of the sect, it's just an invitation they left by the way. They should still go to the sect where you were originally from, or find your master."

The eldest brother glanced at the two silent people and sighed secretly.

Shiba held the invitation, looked at Chen Ping, and said:

"Seventeen, listen to the master and wait until the master comes back."

The senior brother hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Junior Sister Eighteen, I would like to take the liberty to ask, has Senior Uncle Biyuan come back in recent years?"

"No." Shiba shook his head.

The senior brother sighed softly:

"As expected, Master is also injured."

"The leader is injured? What do you mean it's true?" Shiba's slender eyebrows frowned unhappily.

The senior brother smiled softly:

"It's nothing. Senior brother has something else to do, so I won't disturb junior sister and fellow Taoist Chen."

Get up and say goodbye.

"Who are you talking so eloquently?" Shiba cursed dissatisfiedly. Seeing his senior brother leaving, he turned to look at Chen Ping:

"Will Fellow Daoist Chen agree?"

promise?

Do you have the right to refuse?

Chen Ping couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he thought of the inside stories he had heard from Xu Liang over the years.

The invitation said exactly what it said.

If you didn't know that they deliberately tied the confinement to their own welfare, and deliberately sought benefits for themselves while imprisoning the passage, you would almost believe them.

Not only that, when Chen Ping saw the invitation, he couldn't help but wonder if the entry of so many demons into the human world was related to Shengxian Valley?

Are they deliberately creating panic?

Even deliberately blockading various continents?

If this is the case, then the power of Shengxian Valley may be more than just a few transformed gods.

He calmed down:

"Didn't you say we'd wait until your master comes back? At such an important time, she should be back."

"That's right, listen to Master." Shiba became happy again.

Chen Ping said nothing more.

Return to your cave and continue refining elixirs.

That invitation was just an invitation, and it did not require them to leave for various detention points now. It was equivalent to just ventilating in advance.

According to Xu Liang's previous introduction, those white-bearded Taoists usually gather donors in the prison where they plan to make donations about ten to twenty years before the prison is officially restored.

From this point of view, there are still forty or fifty years left.

Chen Ping plans to use these last few decades to accomplish the two most important things:

First, raise your own cultivation level to a small level again.

Second, let your body reach the state of ‘real body’.

In addition to this, the more proficient you can be in spells, natal magic weapons, magical powers, formations, etc., the more proficient you can be.

They are all life-saving means.

Time flies.

In fact.

It didn't take five years, just three years, for Chen Ping to reach the full level of Zhen Ying Dan's alchemy.

In the alchemy room, the fire was burning.

The spiritual energy surged in the alchemy furnace. As Chen Ping's consciousness moved slightly, the carefully selected spiritual materials floated into the alchemy furnace in an orderly manner. The time interval and speed of each spiritual material entering the alchemy furnace were also known. It's all different.

Each spiritual material is different in size, cutting method, etc.

With the addition of baby fire, the spiritual materials boil, melt and merge with other spiritual materials in the alchemy furnace.

All these details were carried out under the gaze of Chen Ping's spiritual consciousness.

Everything is done in an orderly and planned manner.

Each step has been simulated tens of millions of times.

The earth fire and infant fire under the alchemy furnace also grew larger and smaller, changing rhythmically.

When he was halfway through refining the alchemy, Chen Ping once again extracted a wisp of infant fire. Instead of adding it to the bottom of the alchemy furnace, he injected it into the alchemy furnace and merged it with other spiritual materials.

This step consumes a lot of mental energy.

But it is the most critical step to improve the quality of the elixir.

This is also the step that distinguishes fourth-level elixirs from third-level elixirs.

This step will also cause some damage to the monk himself, because he needs to extract more infant fire, but Chen Ping is a perfect golden infant, and the infant fire is abundant and pure, so this will not cause too much harm to him.

Just rest for a few days at most.

Seven days later, the alchemy was completed.

As the lid of the alchemy furnace flew out, a burst of pure mist rose into the sky from the alchemy furnace.

The aroma hits your nostrils.

Immediately afterwards, two crystal clear pills fell on Chen Ping's hand.

This alchemy process has been repeated countless times, but this is the first time that Chen Ping has actually refined Zhenying Dan, and he can't help but feel a little nervous.

It wasn't until he saw the elixir in his hand that he breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them is crystal clear and unblemished, and could not be more perfect.

The other one is crystal clear, with only a slight trace of the light cyan color of the spiritual material remaining. It is not the most perfect elixir, but it is also a top-quality elixir, with a quality that is almost impossible to find on the market.

This is mainly because the alchemy technique of simulating the Liver Zhenying Dan in the alchemy furnace has been used before. This is the first time that a normal-sized alchemy furnace has been used, so there are inevitably certain differences.

It is precisely because of this that despite the full level of alchemy, there are still weak flaws.

Not bad though.

He put away the elixir and walked out of the alchemy room.

There is no spiritual material left to continue refining the second furnace.

Although Ji Ruding gave two furnaces the portion, in order to improve his alchemy skills in the past few years, he had divided the portion of one furnace into hundreds of portions for liver skills.

First, he returned to his own training room.

Immediately take the most perfect Zhenying Pill and immediately practice the body-training technique - "The Demon King's Immortal Kung Fu".

The elixir enters the abdomen, and the warm medicinal power spreads out in the body. With the operation of the 'Devil King's Immortal Technique', the inner thunder flows with the medicinal power throughout the body.

In a trance, it felt like I was standing on the top of a high mountain.

There is only one last step left in front of me. If you step on this last step, you can see all the mountains and small mountains, and you can look down on the heroes.

But before that, I just couldn't get up the last step.

The last step was filled with fog, and it was difficult to see where the stone steps were.

Even if the Demon King's Immortality Skill continues to deepen, the fog dissipates extremely slowly.

But at this moment, under the influence of Zhenying Dan.

The fog quickly dissipated.

The clouds begin to clear ahead and the sun begins to clear.

When the fog cleared, the stone steps were clearly visible, and the previously heavy legs became extremely relaxed. With just a slight lift of the feet, I stood on the top of the real peak.

All kinds of beautiful scenery, as far as the eye can see.

"The true body realm is accomplished."

When Chen Ping opened his eyes and saw his body as crystal clear as jade, he knew he had reached the true body state.

‘With this layer of protection, taking your physical fitness to a higher level is equivalent to automatically adding a layer of defense and poison resistance. ’

That's pretty good.

Chen Ping walked out of the cave and took a breath of the peach blossom-scented air outside.

Full of intoxication.

The next day.

Chen Ping didn't wait for Ji Ruding and his disciples to come looking for someone, and took the initiative to go to the inn where they were staying more than a year in advance.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, how are you?"

When the old man saw Chen Ping's appearance, his first reaction was excitement.

But then he saw that Chen Ping's face seemed to have no expression, and his heart started to lift again.

Could it be that it failed?

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

Chen Ping took out the jade bottle and handed it to the old man.

As soon as these words came out, the old man was suddenly excited. The hand holding the jade bottle trembled slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the jade bottle.

Jiruding next to him also held his breath.

The bottle cork was opened, and a crystal clear pill appeared in the bottle.

Although the elixir has a faint grass-green color, in the eyes of Jiruding and the others, it is a perfect elixir.

Perfect cannot be more perfect.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, thank you very much. This elixir can save my disciple's life." The old man held Chen Ping's hand tightly with a trembling tone in his voice.

Chen Ping said calmly:

"Fellow Taoist, there's no need to be polite. It's just a business."

"But my senior brother is a low-key person, and he doesn't like to make elixirs for others on weekdays. It's just that I happen to have some friendship with Daoist Fellow Ji, so I asked him for help, and he reluctantly agreed."

"After this incident, I hope fellow Taoists will not make it public."

The master and apprentice agreed repeatedly after hearing this.

Some eccentric monks are indeed more homely and don't like to show off.

Especially when they heard that Chen Ping interceded for them and got such a perfect elixir, the two were even more grateful. Ji Ruding rubbed his hands together:

"Senior Chen, Ru Ding doesn't know what to say about what happened back then. This time, thank you very much."

She felt a little ashamed. Although it was normal to ask for medicine without selling it back then, it still meant that she didn't help Chen Ping back then, but now Chen Ping helped her.

It's a bit of a noble and honest feeling of repaying evil with kindness.

Chen Ping's image in her heart was infinitely tall.

Chen Ping waved his hand:

"You two are so polite. My senior brother also accepted the spirit stone. It's a fair deal."

“…..”

The two of them still expressed their heartfelt thanks. Chen Ping had no intention of chatting anymore, so he accidentally slipped a spiritual stone from his sleeve.

The old man reacted immediately and gave the remaining 1,100 top-grade spiritual stones to Chen Ping.

Of which 1,000 is the agreed amount.

The other 100 is extra thank you money.

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Chen Ping hurriedly checked out of the hotel the same day he saw his master and apprentice, went to the General Affairs Pavilion, and left Tianyin Immortal City.

'not bad. ’

‘After refining the elixir this time, not only did I get the Zhenying Dan that I dreamed of, but I also made a profit of 2,400 top-quality spiritual stones. ’

‘It seems that it is quite profitable to refine some rare elixirs for others. The disadvantage is that it takes more than ten years or even decades to practice this alchemy skill, which is not worth it. ’

time flies.

More than ten years have passed by in a flash.

"Master, Chi Yan'er attacks with one strike."

The sleeves of Xu Ruyan's red dress suddenly stretched out, leaving her body with a fierce evil spirit, turning into red ribbons and attacking Chen Ping.

The ribbon then turned into red cloth all over the sky.

The entire platform outside the cave was covered with red cloth of varying widths, blocking out the sky and the sun.

The whole sky turned crimson.

On the other side, Xu Ruluan's eyes were narrowed and he rushed towards Chen Ping who was trapped in the red cloth.

Surrounding the red cloth that fills the sky, rattles make a soul-stirring sound of "dong", "dong" and "dong".

Chen Ping walked quickly to avoid the evil attacks of the Xu sisters, while concentrating on resisting the infection of the drum sound.

The sound of ghost cries made him extremely powerful, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

The feet move quickly.

Every time it appears in front of others, it looks so random.

Such a leisurely stroll.

But only he knew that every step was planned.

After a moment, the ever-changing body shapes paused, formations flashed over the open space, and the power of the Xu sisters' attacks was instantly greatly reduced.

The Jiuxuan Dingtian Formation was successfully deployed.

"Master, Yan'er's cultivation has been suppressed." Xu Ruyan shouted.

"anything else?"

"Yan'er can't get out of this formation."

"anything else?"

"It feels like the formation is consuming Yan'er's spiritual power."

With a wave of his spiritual power, Chen Ping dispelled the Jiuxuan Tianding Formation.

Um.

good.

The power of the full-level Jiuxuan Dingtian Formation is still valuable.

Generally speaking, the higher the proficiency, the higher the concealment of body formation.

When Xiyue was in the middle stage of Yuanying, she probably wasn't proficient enough, so she was noticed by Chi Liang who was in the late stage of Yuanying, and was interfered with the formation.

'But with my current proficiency, if the opponent is not the top formation master, the monks in the Nascent Soul realm will basically not be able to tell that I am setting up a formation. ’

Lowering your cultivation by two levels can still play a lot of roles at critical moments.

In addition, this formation can also trap the opponent and swallow up the opponent's spiritual power to a certain extent.

However, when you use your body shape to move around and set up the formation, it is not the formation device that exerts the restraining effect, but the aura of the formation device that arises between heaven and earth and the restraining origin it contains.

This means that the formation formed by array rhyme is not as durable as the formation arranged by array device.

In other words, this formation can generally only last for tens of breaths.

Then it will collapse.

This is also the limitation of this formation.

In other words, it is the limitation of all formations that are based on physical presence.

‘Although dozens of breaths are not long, it is enough on the battlefield. Even if you can't kill the opponent, you can still run far enough away. ’

When Chen Ping thought about the invitation on his body, he felt extremely uneasy.

But when I think about my increasing number of life-saving means and my constantly improving cultivation, I feel a little more at ease.

After all these years, Fairy Biyuan still has not sent back any information.

No one knows where she went.

Even eighteen doesn’t know.

Chen Ping has already planned his future direction. Fairy Biyuan seems to be unreliable at the moment and he has to find a way on his own.

If the Piaomiao Continent is not unblocked, then find a remote continent similar to the Piaomiao Continent, find a remote place, hide for decades, and avoid the catastrophe of imprisonment and restoration.

If the Piaomiao Continent is unblocked, then go to Xiyue first and listen to her advice.

Then hide in an inaccessible place like a wild forest for decades.

As for whether Shengxian Valley will take revenge in the future?

Let’s wait until this matter is over.

Anyway, the sect is supported by the Xiyue Gang.

Time flies by like a white horse.

With only more than thirty years left before the great catastrophe of imprisonment and restoration, Chen Ping's cultivation level has reached 'Nascent Soul (Second Level): 96/100'.

Logically speaking, it is best to continue practicing at this time and try to break through the third level of Nascent Soul.

However, at this point in time, he finally heard the news that the seal of Piaomiao Continent was loosened.

This means that Piaomiao Continent may be unblocked at any time in the future.

This is good news.

Chen Ping first went to the elixir shop and bought more than a thousand bottles of Qi Gathering Pills used in the golden elixir period. This time many continents were unblocked, and more than two hundred years had passed since the last time the Cangqing Ancient Realm passage was opened. Maybe this passage will be When to turn it on again, it can be regarded as a pill prepared in advance for his wife.

Then I bought dozens of bottles of various types of healing and recovery elixirs.

I bought a fourth-level talisman called the 'Phantom Talisman' on Fulu Street.

This kind of talisman can create an illusion of oneself.

This illusion can have its own breath, spiritual characteristics, and vitality to a certain extent.

In other words, for a short period of time the illusion is yourself.

Even if someone is spying on the ninth level of Nascent Soul, they can hide it from the other person's eyes and consciousness.

Then he went to the medicinal material store and spent 1,000 top-quality spiritual stones and bought 500 furnaces of medicinal materials for the Qi Shen Dan.

These medicinal materials are very common here, but they are definitely not so easy to buy in the Western Wilderness, and the price will probably be more expensive. After all, there are only two Nascent Souls there.

I originally wanted to buy some formations over the years, but after asking around, I found that no one was selling the fourth-level formations.

Especially in recent years, the closed continents have been gradually unsealed, and many Nascent Soul monks have also left Tianyin Fairy City one after another.

This makes fourth-level items even more scarce.

Chen Ping deliberately went to the cave owned by Jia Zhongshou and found that the building was empty and the owner of the cave had changed.

Returning to the cave, the next step is to wait.

Waiting for news about the complete unblocking of Piaomiao Continent.

This wait lasted several years.

Chen Ping has not been idle in the past few years, and his cultivation finally broke through to the 'third level of Nascent Soul'.

‘Realm: Yuanying (third level): 1/100. ’

‘Shouyuan: 392/1370. ’

It took 102 years from entering the Yuanying to entering the third level of the Yuanying.

Of course, this was mainly in the early stages of Nascent Soul, and he spent a lot of time improving his own strength, specializing in the study of natal magic weapons, magical powers, spells, fourth-level formations, and 1-4th level alchemy.

Otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long.

Not long after reaching the third level of Nascent Soul, I finally heard the good news——

——The Piaomiao Continent has been unblocked.
