Immortal Palace Longevity

If you think about it carefully, it is indeed very likely.

It is said that the Central Region is not only the most powerful cultivation world of the human race, but also the origin of all human beings.

In ancient times, the ancestors worked hard and spread their footprints throughout the entire Central Region, and their strength became unprecedentedly strong.

Since then, the human race has officially stepped onto the stage of competing with all races, spreading from the Central Region to all corners of the world.

In the end, the human race was either exterminated or conquered, becoming one of the two major protagonists of this world, standing on equal footing with the demon race.

The Central Region is the source of all cultivation worlds.

No matter where in the world, any cultivation world can be traced back along the timeline to find its source in the Central Region.

And some ancient cultivation techniques, except for those that were created later, many were brought from the Central Region by ancient cultivators.

"Qingyang Gong, could it be such a technique?!"

Liu Yu guessed in his heart, and a thought flashed in his eyes.

Gradually, a picture seemed to be outlined in his mind.

In an extremely distant era, the strength of the ancient cultivators reached the peak of a certain stage. Some of them chose to leave the Central Region and embarked on the road of competing with all races.

A small part of them eventually took root in Tiannan and became the origin of Tiannan's cultivation world.

Some ancient techniques were also circulated from that time or later.

"If this is the origin of the "Qingyang Gong", then everything makes sense."

"This skill is now cut off in Tiannan, but it may still be circulated in the vast Central Region."

"Do I want to take the risk?"

Liu Yu had all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind.

For a moment, he couldn't make up his mind.

The risks of crossing the Hengduan Mountains can be imagined, and this is no joke.

By then, no one will be found, and if you reveal your whereabouts a little bit, you may be hunted down by a third-level demon cultivator or even a transformed demon cultivator.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a death sentence.

During the long time of disconnection from the Central Region, Liu Yu did not believe in Tiannan and did not try to reconnect.

But the current situation is enough to explain something.

Perhaps, all the attempts that have been made have failed without exception.

"It's just that the risk is great, but..."

In the empty hall, regardless of the whispers around him, Liu Yu's face changed and his brows frowned slightly.

But if he wants to get the follow-up of Qingyang Gong, he may have to participate in this extremely risky action.

Although the ninth level of Qingyang has been deduced through the Immortal Mansion, perhaps after repeated deductions, there will not be much problem.

But what about the content about the formation of infants in the future?

Even if Liu Yu is confident, he will not think that he will be flawless in deducing the content about the Yuanying period in the late Jindan period.

Once you make a mistake, it may cause irreparable regrets.

Even if you barely form an infant, it is possible that the road will be cut off due to the defects of the practice, and it will be difficult to take a step further.

This result is difficult for Liu Yu to accept!

Not all mistakes can be made up through later efforts.

In fact, even with the heaven-defying spiritual objects, only a small part can be made up.

In the Jindan realm, there is a saying that "there is no regret after the elixir is completed".

The chance of a cultivator who forms a Jindan and then changes his cultivation method to condense a Yuanying is much lower than that of a normal cultivator.

This is because no matter how compatible the properties are, the Jindan condensed by the original cultivation method will more or less conflict with the new cultivation method.

It is as conspicuous as a drop of ink on a pure white paper, and it is no longer pure.

How can a mixed Jindan that is no longer pure give birth to a Yuanying?

In the Yuanying realm, the Yuanshen and Yuanying are combined into one, and the connection is further improved.

If the Jindan realm can accept the price and there is still the possibility of changing the cultivation method, the Yuanying realm will almost not exist.

Unless it is a cultivation method that is passed down from one lineage.

Or, it is a cultivation method that the cultivator tailors according to his own situation, but that possibility is very rare.

The second method also has huge hidden dangers.

Limited by vision, perhaps the created cultivation method has no problem for a while, and it can be practiced smoothly in this realm.

But when it comes to the promotion to a higher realm, it is very likely that...

The existing techniques in the world of immortal cultivation are all obtained after countless failures. I don't know how many immortal cultivators died with regrets because of this.

A mature technique can not only be practiced normally in the current realm, but also will not hinder the promotion to a higher realm.

The key lies in "connecting the past and the future"!

Limited by vision and knowledge, even the techniques created by so-called geniuses can only achieve the step of "connecting the future".

But if you want to perfect it to "connect the past", you have to go through the experiments of several generations, or even more than ten generations of cultivators.

Liu Yu is in this situation at this time.

Using the Qingyang Gong deduced by the Immortal Mansion, there is probably no problem in this realm, but when you are promoted to a higher realm, you will encounter a deep pit. This is unknown.

And it is obviously too reckless to experiment with yourself and take risks on the path.

"It seems that for the sake of the future path, I must participate in this trip to the Central Region."

After thinking for a long time, Liu Yu made a decision in his heart, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Even if the sequel of Qingyang Gong is not found in the Central Region, with the strength of the Central Region's immortal cultivation world, there will certainly be more immortal cultivation techniques.

In this way, the difficulty of collecting techniques should be reduced a lot.

If he can collect a few more techniques that can directly lead to the Nascent Soul or the God Transformation as references, maybe with the help of the Immortal Palace, he can deduce a truly perfect technique.

"Even if you have the Immortal Mansion as a support, if you want to go further on the Immortal Road, you sometimes have to take risks."

"Even if you know that you will die and may never come back!"

Liu Yu sighed, his eyes gradually firmed up.

With the help of the Immortal Mansion, under normal circumstances, he has an advantage over any cultivator, and is more inclined to lie low and practice.

But it does not mean that he has lost his sense of adventure!

If it is related to the path, he is willing to gamble his life and property to fight for an unknown future!

Be steady when you should be steady, and strike decisively when you should act!

While Liu Yu was thinking, a cultivator had already made a decision.

"Uncle Master, disciple Zhao Wuji is willing to go!"

"Disciple Jiang Yunfeng is willing to participate in this action, please ask the ancestor for approval!"

"Disciple Zhou Zhuofeng is also determined, and ask the ancestor for approval!"

Several firm voices echoed in the empty hall.

The firmness in the tone makes people feel the determination of its owner.

Zhao Wuji, Jiang Yunfeng, Zhou Zhuofeng, three fellow Jindan disciples, quickly made a decision and stepped out of the crowd to volunteer to Tianfeng Patriarch.

Each of them had a very firm look in their eyes and no hesitation in their tone.

Obviously, after weighing the benefits, they chose to give it a try!

Crossing the Hengduan Mountains and going to the legendary Tang Dynasty is a 100% chance of death, but the benefits are also surprisingly rich.

Each of the Infant Transformation Pill, Infant Condensation Pill, and Mysterious Fetal Pill can greatly increase the chance of condensing an infant.

As long as they can return alive and get one of these pills, their future will be limitless!

They clearly know the risks and what kind of life and death crisis it contains. Even Tianfeng Patriarch frankly said "100% chance of death", but he still has the determination to give it a try.

Those who hear the Tao, live in the morning and die in the evening, that's enough!

If you fail, you will die and the Tao will disappear!

If you succeed, you will soar into the sky!

"Sure enough, there is no shortage of people willing to give it a try in this world of immortal cultivation."

"There are so many gamblers!"

"The most despairing thing is that there is no chance to give it a try, and there is no hope at all."

Looking at the three people, Liu Yu had this thought in his mind, and then he stepped out of the crowd and bowed to the hall:

"Grandmaster, I am willing to go!"

In the hall, the other Jindan cultivators looked at the four people who stepped forward, but their faces were complicated.

They formed the elixir relatively early, and even if they crossed the Hengduan Mountains and came back alive from the Tang Dynasty, the chance of condensing the infant was very slim.

Moreover, the comfortable life for many years has already worn away their fighting spirit, and the idea of ​​gamble their lives and give it a try has actually faded.

Compared with the three people who have just condensed the golden elixir and have plenty of lifespans to cultivate to the peak of the golden elixir, they hope that this beast tide will pass quickly, and then they can live freely in the world for hundreds of years.

However, even so, looking at the four people who stepped forward, they not only did not laugh in their hearts, but envied them.

"If I were one or two hundred years younger, I would probably make the same choice!"

Watching the four people silently, many cultivators had this thought in their minds.

"Good, good, good!"

Tianfeng Patriarch said three good words with a look on his face, and he was obviously in a very good mood.

Having already admitted the danger of this trip, there were still four people willing to give it a try. The disciples of the sect were so enterprising, how could he not be happy?

Only by not being satisfied with the status quo and maintaining a strong enterprising spirit can cultivators take a step forward, and the sect can prosper forever!

However, looking at Liu Yu, Tianfeng Patriarch frowned slightly and asked in confusion:

"When the elixir is formed into the sixth grade, it is destined to receive some resources from the sect. Even if you don't participate in this mission, the possibility of condensing the infant is not small."

"If I remember correctly, Qingyang, you have only formed the elixir for sixty or seventy years, and you are only one hundred and sixty or seventy years old. Why do you want to take such a risk?"

The sixth grade golden elixir is already the peak of the middle grade golden elixir. In the absence of the upper grade golden elixir, it is the existence with the best qualifications.

In terms of the chance of condensing the infant, the innate quality of the golden elixir is slightly higher than that of the ordinary quality.

In the eyes of the Tianfeng Patriarch, in the huge Yuanyang Sect, only Li Changfeng and Liu Yu are sixth-grade golden elixir.

It would be a pity to risk participating in the mission and die in the Hengduan Mountains.

"Report to the ancestor, I have a reason to go!"

Liu Yu looked serious, bowed heavily, and said without humility.

As for the specific reason, he did not mean to elaborate.

"I have already explained the risks of this trip in detail."

"You are a sixth-grade golden elixir with a bright future. You might as well think about it again."

For the sake of the sixth-grade golden elixir, the Tianfeng Patriarch rarely persuaded seriously.

But that's it. Although the sixth-grade golden elixir is rare, it is just like that for the Yuanying stage cultivators.

After all, the maximum lifespan of the golden elixir cultivators is 800 years, but due to various reasons, it is generally around 600 years.

And the Yuanying stage cultivators can generally live for 1,500 years.

During the long life of Tianfeng Patriarch, he witnessed dozens or even hundreds of cultivators’ golden elixir, among which there were always a few outstanding ones.

It was already quite rare to persuade him a few words.

“Replying to the Patriarch, the disciple has made up his mind!”

Liu Yu remained unyielding and said firmly.

Even though the cultivators behind him could not see his face, they could feel the firm determination from his tone.

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Tianfeng Patriarch nodded slightly and stopped persuading him. He glanced at the other three people and then said slowly:

"This mission is of great importance. If we are careless, the whole army will be wiped out. We cannot afford any mistakes."

"Therefore, we must send the strongest cultivators."

"After discussion by the alliance, it was decided that each of the seven major countries will send an elite team. As for the selection of the elite team, it will be decided by each country itself."

"In our Chu country, each sect will send one person."

"Therefore, the four of you need to have a battle of magic, and only the final winner can be selected!"

Tianfeng Patriarch said this amazing news slowly.

Even if it is to die, not every cultivator is qualified. Only the strongest can go.

"That's right. If a sect gathers a whole elite team, it will be a bit painful."

"Each sect only sends one, which is much easier to bear."

"And this arrangement can also prevent a sect from..."

Liu Yu had this thought.

But after thinking about it, he understood the deep meaning of the alliance's arrangement.

"What?" The Jindan cultivators who were watching were surprised.

I didn't expect that such a task would require people to rush to do it?

This is really rushing to die!

However, Jindan cultivators are all determined people. Since they have made up their minds, naturally no one will quit halfway.

"Disciple understands!"

The next moment, Liu Yu, Zhao Wuji, Jiang Yunfeng, and Zhou Zhuofeng all spoke.

"Okay."

"In this case, you will move outside the hall and start the competition!"

Tianfeng Patriarch waved his sleeves, and when the voice fell, he was already in the air outside the hall.

After the only Yuanying Zhenjun left, the four people in the hall looked at each other, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.

The three looked at Liu Yu with solemnity on their faces, and they did not dare to look down on him at all.

Obviously, the three of them had heard of his record.

Even if he had formed a pill longer than Liu Yu, stayed in the Jindan realm longer, and even had a higher realm.

At this moment, the three of them were not sure of winning!

"Junior Brother Qingyang, you are so confused!"

"It's not too late to regret now. You can quit just by telling the ancestor."

"Junior Brother Qingyang, you... Alas."

"Junior Brother is still too impulsive."

After the ancestor Tianfeng left, several Jindan from the same family came up to persuade Liu Yu not to be impulsive and give up his previous decision.

Through the Yan family and the Li family, Liu Yu has a good relationship with many families in the sect, and even has direct interests, such as elixirs.

If he died in the Hengduan Mountains, then all cooperation would naturally end.

The relationship that was built up before would be completely in vain.

Therefore, although these cultivators seemed to care, there were also considerations of interests.

"Liu has made up his mind. Brothers and sisters don't need to persuade him anymore!"

Liu Yu bowed to all directions and said seriously, and then walked straight out of the hall to show his determination.

"..."

Behind him, several Jindan elders looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

…

A group of Jindan came to the outside of the hall, suspended in the air hundreds of feet high, and the Tianfeng Patriarch announced the rules of the battle in public.

The four people drew lots to fight in pairs, and the losers were eliminated directly. The winners would have a final duel to decide the final candidates for the task.

The place of the battle was still hundreds of feet high.

The power of the Jindan battle was too strong, and there was no suitable battle platform in the Tiannan Xiuxian world that could accommodate it.

If the power was allowed to dissipate casually, it would be no different from "forced demolition", and the surrounding area would be completely unrecognizable.

Of course, this could not be done in one's own sect.

Liu Yu's opponent in the first round was Zhao Wuji, who ranked first among the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes" when he was in the foundation-building stage.

The two left the team and stood in the air hundreds of feet high, facing each other from a distance.

Liu Yu's black hair and black robe fluttered, and he looked at each other expressionlessly, and no depth could be seen from the surface.

Another thirty years passed, and he had made great progress in all aspects of his cultivation strength.

The power of the natal magic weapon Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear was also greatly increased under the warming, and the attacking force was even stronger.

Although the opponent was very famous in the foundation-building realm, he was not taken seriously by Liu Yu now.

As a ninth-grade golden elixir, he also had a good magic weapon. Ordinary cultivators of the same level could be considered excellent if they were not crushed by him.

"How much strength should I use to defeat the opponent?"

Although his face was calm, Liu Yu was thinking in his heart how much strength he should exert in the battle.

On the other side, Zhao Wuji's face was full of solemnity.

He stayed in the foundation-building realm for a long time in order to polish his foundation and improve the quality of the golden elixir as much as possible.

But in the end, he only condensed a fifth-grade golden elixir, which was "one level" inferior to the opponent.

Even though he thought that his strength had improved a lot and he was also a leader in the early stage of the golden elixir, he still didn't have much confidence in facing "Qing Yangzi".

After all, according to rumors, the opponent had the strength to compete with the third-stage middle-stage demon cultivator, and it was the top-notch mortal demon bloodline!

"Brother, please."

The strong wind blew the black robe rustling, and Liu Yu crossed his arms and said lightly.

Facing a fellow disciple who had formed the elixir several decades earlier, he chose to let the other party make the first move.

After these words came out, the crowd watching on the side did not feel anything wrong.

Obviously, in their eyes, Zhao Wuji's strength was good, but Liu Yu was obviously stronger!

"......"

"Damn it, how dare you be so arrogant!"

Zhao Wuji's face darkened when he heard this, and it looked a little ugly.

In all his cultivation, how could he have been looked down upon by others?

Moreover, he was once such an ordinary cultivator, but now he has only achieved success overnight!

Sure enough, the next moment, this person spit out a fiery red flying sword, and shot out five flaming missiles from the tip of the sword, which quickly shot towards Liu Yu.

The flaming missiles were extremely powerful, almost as powerful as ordinary third-grade low-grade spells, and there were five in a row, which showed that his life treasure was extraordinary.

And his magic power was only one step away from the peak of the initial stage.

After shooting out the flaming missiles, Zhao Wuji made a seal with his hands, and did not stop the attack.

The flaming red flying sword quickly grew larger, and in the blink of an eye it became three feet in size, burning with dark red flames all over, and turned slightly in direction, slashing towards Liu Yu with great force.

This sword is quite extraordinary. A blazing sun is engraved on the front of the sword, and the sword body is also covered with sun-like patterns. It is a pure fire attribute magic weapon.

It is the "Three Yang Burning Heaven Art" of Yuanyang Sect that leads directly to the Nascent Soul Stage.

During the Foundation Establishment Stage, Zhao Wuji, as the leader of the Three Heroes and Four Heroes, is of course qualified to practice.

Feeling Liu Yu's "arrogant and arrogant" attitude, he used all his strength as soon as he attacked.

"I didn't expect that Junior Brother Zhao's understanding of the "Three Yang Burning Heaven Art" has reached this point."

"And he has also refined a top-level magic weapon such as the "Nanming Lihuo Sword."

Some of the Jindan cultivators who were watching were deeply moved.

"Not only that, there is also sword power!"

"I didn't expect that this Junior Brother Zhao has unknowingly acquired this kind of strength!"

"In this case, it will be interesting to see."

Someone else nodded in agreement.

"Three Yang Burning Heaven Technique"

"Sword Power"

Although Liu Yu was not polite, he did not underestimate the opponent in his heart. Seeing that the opponent was going all out, he immediately became serious.

Facing the flaming missiles that were shot at him, even though each one was as powerful as a third-level low-grade spell, he did not move.

It was just that the mana in his body surged, and strands of blue flames penetrated his body and condensed into a flame shield in front of him.

Body-protecting flame shield!

As the cultivation level became higher and higher and the power of the Blue Yang Magic Fire became greater and greater, the power of the spells attached to this technique became more and more considerable.

"Swish swish"

Five flaming missiles cut through the sky and landed on the body-protecting flame shield in an instant, erupting with a loud roar.

"Boom boom boom"

The blue and red spiritual light flashed, and the two flames quickly intertwined, and the result was soon determined.

The body-protecting flame shield was indestructible, but the spiritual light dimmed a little, and the red flames left by the five missiles were all submerged by the blue flames.

Spiritual fire!

Zhao Wuji's heart was shocked.

Even in the Jindan realm, spiritual fire is extremely rare. The lowest level of spiritual fire is not weaker than ordinary magic weapons.

And the power of the second-level spiritual fire has surpassed most magic weapons.

He didn't expect that the other party had "spiritual fire" in such a short time after forming the Jindan!

However, Zhao Wuji didn't stop his movements. The fiery red giant sword, which was transformed into a three-meter-long sword, was still slashing towards Liu Yu with great force.

This sword, in line with the great trend in the dark, made its own power surge by 30%, and the killing power was even stronger.

Sword force!

At the moment when this sword was slashed, Liu Yu had a sense of déjà vu, and felt that he was locked by this sword.

He was not surprised that the other party could have the realm of sword force.

Jindan cultivators are naturally far better than foundation-building cultivators. Even if they are not specialized sword cultivators, there are many who have cultivated to the realm of sword force.

The thought flashed through his mind in just a moment, but Liu Yu's movements were not slow at all.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear appeared in front of him, quickly growing to a size of five feet, emitting a brilliant light golden aura.

The tip of the spear flashed with cold light, and the light red lines in the spear body were vivid, with golden flames burning on it.

With a mighty and powerful force, the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear shot out in an instant, with no intention of retreating, and wanted to confront the sword force head-on.

At the same time, Liu Yu's mana was not stingy, making the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear aura flourish!

"Ding Ding Ding"

Under the gaze of all the cultivators, two magic weapons with powerful offensive power met, and a harsh and unpleasant collision sound was heard during the confrontation.

In just a breath, they clashed dozens of times!

Hundreds of feet high in the sky, the golden and red auras shone, and the power of the golden elixir level was rampant.

"Not bad."

Liu Yu said in his heart.

But the output of mana increased by two points again, and the spiritual light of the sunset golden rainbow spear was strong again, completely overshadowing the opponent.

In the attack that the flaming red flying sword is best at, it only takes a few breaths to suppress it.

Strong and domineering!

At the same time, the spiritual pressure around Liu Yu also slightly exceeded the scope of the early stage of the golden elixir, which surprised the onlookers.

Even if Zhao Wuji used all his means without any reservation, he still couldn't save the decline.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that his defeat was only a matter of time.

"It's almost done."

This thought flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

His left shoulder tilted back slightly, and his right palm swung forward, skillfully gushing out countless green lights.

In an instant, Zhao Wuji was enveloped in it.

Wither!

One gold and eight silver, the nine Dao marks engraved on the golden elixir, instantly lit up slightly, and the magical power "Wither" was successfully activated.

Following the lock of the divine consciousness, it descended on Zhao Wuji together with the green light.
