Immortal Palace Longevity

“Boom”

The soul returned to the body, and the spiritual pressure quickly recovered to a level close to the original level.

An invisible wave spread around, blowing up dust.

The next moment, Liu Yu opened his eyes, and a ray of divine light flashed.

The new content of the ninth level of Qingyang Gong instantly flowed through his mind.

The content deduced this time was born out of the skeleton of the original technique, and also added his various conjectures and imaginations, as well as the knowledge of cultivating immortals accumulated over the years.

Compared with the original tenth level of Qingyang Gong, it was deduced comprehensively.

In Liu Yu's current view, it is close to "perfect".

It includes all his current knowledge of cultivating immortals, as well as various conjectures, creativity and imaginations, without even the slightest room for improvement.

More importantly, because the deduction process has the original technique as a reference, the difficulty of breaking the pill to become an infant is also solved, and it will not affect the cultivation of subsequent realms.

After breaking through the Nascent Soul, there will be no obstacles even if you practice the tenth level of the original technique!

"It is foolish to imagine the scenery of a higher realm with a lower realm!"

"It is better to wait until I condense my Nascent Soul before planning the road after the Nascent Soul."

"Even if I deduce the technique now, I am afraid that it will be full of loopholes when I watch it later."

The light in his eyes converged and returned to an ordinary look. All kinds of thoughts about the future of the technique flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

Sometimes thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing.

Along the way, he is now standing on the third step of the immortal road.

When recalling the first two realms, I imagined the scene in the Golden Core Realm. Now I think about how naive and ridiculous it is.

At that time, I could never imagine the power and weirdness of the magical power "withering", the many taboos about practicing "Golden Core", and the differences in the essence of life.

Fortunately, with the support of the sect, after forming the Golden Core, I immediately obtained relevant knowledge, so as not to make mistakes in practice.

Many talented casual cultivators worked hard to form the Golden Core, but made mistakes in their subsequent practice.

It is a pity that the path was cut off because of the lack of inheritance.

So even though Liu Yu had the Immortal Palace in his hand and could rely on his powerful deduction ability to "observe" the subsequent path, he was very cautious in using it.

He did not dare to be blindly arrogant, and he did not dare to imagine everything too beautifully.

"Tap tap"

Feeling the surging and active mana in Dantian, he got up and left the practice room.

After preparing to burn incense and take a bath, he would have a good sleep and wait until the state reached the peak, and then officially start to break through the realm.

...

Two days and two nights later, the practice room.

Liu Yu's state reached the peak, sitting cross-legged on the cushion, doing the final breath adjustment.

The situation in the Central Region, the old things in Tiannan, all kinds of thoughts returned to silence, only the four words "break through the realm" remained, and he gradually entered the ethereal realm.

"It's time."

Liu Yu flashed this thought, and his hands moved immediately, slowly pinching the magic formula.

The next moment, the "Qingyang Gong" technique was running loudly, and the robes moved without wind.

"Boom!"

A spiritual pressure as if it were real emanated from his body, rolling up fine smoke and dust.

As the spell was pinched, the slowly rotating blue golden pill in the dantian paused immediately, and then rotated at a speed several times faster than usual.

At the same time, the "lake water" of the magic power lake also moved, quickly entering the meridians one by one, and performing a large circulation.

"Bang bang bang"

Small explosions continued to be heard around Liu Yu's body.

The upper and middle-grade spiritual stones placed around him turned into powder one after another in a breath, continuously releasing rich fire-attribute spiritual energy.

The third-grade fire-attribute spiritual gathering array was also activated at the same time.

According to objective laws, as soon as the fire-attribute spiritual energy that is rich to a certain degree appears, it will naturally drift around and tend to transform to a lower concentration.

But this process was quickly stopped by the third-level spiritual gathering array.

The spirit gathering array emits a milky white aura, like a barrier, covering the entire training room.

The fire attribute aura released by the spirit stone no longer dissipates, nor does it transform into a low concentration.

After two breaths, the released fire attribute aura continues to accumulate, gradually forming a cloud-like shape, and the color continues to deepen.

During the process, the temperature of the space continues to rise, reaching a level that can melt steel.

However, Liu Yu is no longer a mortal body, and the temperature that can melt steel is just slightly hotter water for him, and he does not feel any discomfort.

"Boom"

As a large cycle is completed, the mana returns to the mana lake, and he gradually enters a breakthrough state.

He began to absorb the aura in the space, continuously refining it into mana, and increasing the total amount of the mana lake.

Visible to the naked eye, wisps of extremely dense red mist, under the influence of an invisible force, continuously enter Liu Yu's body.

This suction force is very strong, and it looks like a forced tear from a distance, and the red mist has no room for resistance at all.

Qingyang Gong is a fire and wood attributed technique, but it is mainly based on fire attribute, so absorbing fire attribute spiritual energy is naturally the best choice, saving the step of spiritual energy transformation.

One big cycle, two big cycles

As the big cycle cycle increases, Liu Yu's speed of running the technique continues to increase, and the speed of refining spiritual energy is also getting faster and faster.

In the observation of the divine consciousness, the "water level" of the mana lake is constantly rising, and the total amount is continuing to increase.

Thanks to the pure mana, his mana can move as he wishes, with almost no delay.

And the strong body of the third stage also makes the meridians fully able to withstand the pressure brought by the high-speed operation of the exercises.

It is even more comfortable, without any pressure of overload operation.

Because the accumulation of mana is close to the upper limit, and there is no feeling of bottleneck, Liu Yu does not plan to take pills for this breakthrough.

He feels that this breakthrough is a sure thing.

Taking pills will more or less leave some pill poison.

Although using "Canglang Liushui" can remove most of it, it is better to take less unless necessary, especially when it is a sure thing.

Since opening the Immortal Mansion, Liu Yu has never stopped taking pills, but he has always been very careful in this aspect, never taking too many pills, and trying not to rely on them too much.

In the practice room, the red mist was quickly inhaled into his body.

However, there is a gathering array to gather external spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy released by the spiritual stone continuously, so there is no tendency to become thin for the time being, and it is not a problem to persist for a while.

In the meridians, strands of mana are running at high speed, completing a large cycle.

The spiritual energy is used exclusively for mana, marked with a unique spiritual mark, and continuously refined and purified to remove impurities, and finally returned to the mana lake.

…

With his mind completely focused on the breakthrough, Liu Yu could hardly feel the passage of time.

After an unknown period of time, the speed of Qingyang Gong's operation suddenly slowed down, and the speed of the mist of spiritual energy entering the body also slowed down.

At this time, the mana lake had expanded a circle, and waves of saturation came.

It seemed that the expansion had reached a limit, and encountered an invisible shackle, and it was extremely difficult to increase it by a little bit.

Faced with this situation, Liu Yu's face was unusually calm, and there was no surprise in his heart.

He understood that this was the barrier between the middle and late stages of the golden elixir.

Only by breaking through this barrier and officially stepping into the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, and raising the upper limit of mana, can mana continue to grow.

"Gather Qi and concentrate your mind, embrace the origin and keep the unity."

Liu Yu concentrated his mind and calmed his breath, focusing all his attention on the breakthrough, ignoring the influence of the invisible shackles, and forcibly operated his mana,

"Boom!!!"

The next moment, the mana lake was full of turbulent waves, and the green water was surging endlessly.

Solid mana resisted the influence of the invisible shackles and forced into the meridians to flow, continuing the Great Zhoutian cycle.

At this time, the advantage of pure mana was revealed.

If the mana is not pure enough, it is difficult to break free from the influence of the invisible shackles, and naturally there is no way to talk about breaking through the realm.

In general, cultivators can only rely on external forces in the face of this situation, such as elixirs, spiritual objects, etc.

But Liu Yu's elixir has become the ninth grade, and when he was in the Qi Refining Foundation Building Realm, he laid a strong foundation, and he could easily break free from the influence without relying on the power of external objects.

Under his urging, strands of mana and spiritual light flourished, emitting brilliant green light, full of vitality and extremely active.

Even under the influence of invisible shackles, it can run at a faster speed.

As the mist of spiritual energy continued to enter the body, the mana accumulated in the meridians continued to increase, and the meridians were opened one after another.

The invisible shackles also slowly disappeared in the process, and the influence gradually weakened.

The mana continued to accumulate, and the meridians passively expanded.

But in practicing the "Star True Body", Liu Yu's physical strength is comparable to that of a demon cultivator, and this level of burden is no longer a problem.

As time goes by, the mana in the meridians increases.

With the meridians of the ninth level of Qingyang Gong being completely opened, the invisible shackles also decayed to the extreme, and the influence was negligible.

"It's now."

With this thought flashing through his mind, Liu Yu's spell in his hand changed.

All the mana accumulated in the meridians immediately surged towards the mana lake, completely ignoring the influence of the shackles, and rushed through the meridians.

He controlled it very carefully, observing the situation in each meridian at all times.

"Boom!!!"

As the new mana approached the dantian step by step, the invisible shackles finally dissipated.

Between existence and non-existence, Liu Yu seemed to hear a crisp sound.

The sound seemed to be deafening, and it seemed to be crisp and pleasant, but it could not be detected by the five senses, nor could it be perceived by the spiritual sense.

It was like the divine sound of the great way, which made people enlightened!

At this moment, Liu Yu had a kind of enlightenment in his heart. He had broken through to the late stage of the golden elixir.

Although the total amount of the mana lake did not increase, the upper limit of mana did increase. As long as the mana was continuously refined, the mana lake could continue to expand.

At the same time, above the Mana Lake, the speed of the blue golden elixir's rotation also suddenly increased, and it expanded at an imperceptible speed.

"Puff~"

A sound like a raging sea came from Liu Yu's body.

The newly generated mana merged into the Mana Lake, causing its area to expand continuously, and it expanded in the blink of an eye.

The waves became more turbulent, and the color of the lake became deeper.

"It's done."

He was slightly happy in his heart, and then he focused his mind and tried his best to refine the spiritual energy to fill the Mana Lake.

The cultivation level broke through, the invisible shackles dissipated, and the obstacles to the growth of mana disappeared.

There will be no more obstacles until the next bottleneck.

Late Jindan!

Focusing his mind, Liu Yu operated the new ninth level of "Qingyang Gong" and operated the Great Zhoutian cycle with all his heart.

As time went by, the Mana Lake slowly expanded, and the water level continued to rise on the original basis.

The high-speed rotating golden elixir expanded about one circle, and at the same time, it was constantly absorbing and releasing mana, purifying and refining the impurities in it.

This "optimal time" for mana growth lasted for a day and a night.

It was not until a day and a night later that Liu Yu felt the sense of saturation again, and the speed of Zhou Tian circulation and absorbing spiritual energy naturally slowed down.

Finally, he ended this exercise and slowly opened his eyes.

"Late stage of golden elixir"

"Compared with before the breakthrough, the total amount of mana has increased by about 30%, and the strength is incomparable."

The mana in the dantian was surging, and a strong feeling continued to come. Liu Yu carefully experienced the state after the breakthrough and estimated the strength after the breakthrough.

"Hiss~"

But before he had time to think about it, a tearing pain came from his soul.

This pain was several times stronger than taking the "Soul Condensing Pill" to practice the "Soul Conservation Magic Method", and it felt like the soul was being torn apart.

"Uh~"

Liu Yu's face changed, he groaned, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a trace of cold sweat left on his forehead.

Fortunately, he was well prepared and did not faint.

Looking inward at the Yuanshen in the Niwan Palace, it can be clearly observed that the big red light ball is becoming brighter on the basis of the original.

The speed is so fast that it is far faster than the effect of practicing the "Magic Method of Preserving the Spirit".

The increase in just one or two breaths is better than the sum of decades of practice. It is not surprising that there is such intense pain.

Refining essence into qi, refining qi to return to the spirit!

The extreme pain came, and Liu Yu suddenly lost his perception of the outside world. He sat cross-legged and almost fell to the ground, barely relying on willpower to hold on.

I don’t know how long it took, and the tearing pain receded like a tide, and he gradually came back to his senses.

Looking inward at the Yuanshen, it was obviously several times brighter than before the promotion, and the body size was slightly larger.

"Hu~"

Wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, Liu Yu exhaled a breath of turbid air.

His pale face gradually recovered.

After experiencing this extreme pain, he did not feel any grievance or complaint.

Even in ancient and modern times, those who can cultivate to a high level have all experienced hardships that ordinary people cannot imagine, and torture like hell!

"Heaven will give great responsibilities to you."

An article flashed through his mind, and Liu Yu had a deeper understanding of it, and his fluctuating mood gradually calmed down.

Continuing to experience the changes after the breakthrough, he moved his mind, and his consciousness broke through the obstruction of the formation and spread in all directions.

Eighty miles, one hundred miles, one hundred and forty miles

The consciousness rushed out of the cave and swept across the city, covering the entire Xunyang City, and continued to spread further.

With Liu Yu as the center, it spread for about one hundred and fifty miles before reaching the final limit.

"One hundred and fifty miles!"

After verifying the limit of the consciousness and reaching the conclusion of one hundred and fifty miles, Liu Yu's face was delighted.

This level has far exceeded the hundred-mile limit of ordinary golden elixir, and it is not as simple as the superficial fifty-mile gap.

But it is several times!

This means that when facing ordinary Jindan, his advantage in spiritual consciousness will continue to expand, and he can basically crush them!

Such a big gap can almost be described as "a world of difference".

The power of various spiritual consciousness secrets will increase simultaneously, and even when facing Jindan peak cultivators, it can play a decisive role.

In layman's terms, even if all kinds of spiritual consciousness methods are not "weird and strange".

However, due to the huge gap in spiritual consciousness strength, it has played the effect of one force defeating ten skills!

Even if the enemy cultivator has a spiritual consciousness defense magic weapon, Liu Yu has a great chance of breaking it in a short time without consuming too much.

The situation in which the spiritual consciousness power was consumed when breaking the spiritual consciousness defense magic weapon during the fierce battle with Su Xiangling is gone forever!

Of course, this only refers to the general situation, and the specific situation still depends on the quality of the magic weapon.

"Except for the physical body, the strength has increased in all directions, ranging from 30% to 50%."

"After the Jindan realm, every 10% of strength is a huge difference."

"If I were to face the Daoyi Saint at his peak, what would be my chances of winning?"

"50%? 70%?"

Experiencing the changes after the breakthrough and feeling the huge increase in strength, Liu Yu couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.

Subconsciously, he secretly compared himself with the strongest Jindan Daoyi Saint he had seen so far.

But when they fought that year, the opponent had been seriously injured by the sword of ruin, and his strength was greatly reduced, which was indeed difficult to estimate.

"Although I don't know how much strength Daoyi Saint has when he is in full strength."

"But based on my feeling, if both sides do not rely on external forces, such as talismans, talismans, puppets, etc."

"At this moment, facing Daoyi Saint, my chances of winning should not be less than 50%!"

Thinking of the terrifying strength of Daoyi Saint, Liu Yu secretly estimated in his heart and came to a relatively conservative conclusion.

Indeed, the other party is a "holy son" who can enjoy the best resources and choose the best practice.

But Liu, with the backing of the Immortal Palace, has never lacked practice resources.

He also relied on the Immortal Palace to tailor the most suitable practice.

He practiced the three ways at the same time, and there was no shortcoming in the three aspects of spirit, energy and spirit, so even though the other party was a "holy son", he was not at a disadvantage.

After all, the ultimate goal of all resources is to improve the realm strength.

Specifically, it is the quality of the golden elixir, the strength of the mana, the strength of the soul, the strength of the physical body, etc.

Liu Yu has always been careful in his cultivation, and has never fallen behind in these aspects. He is also at the ninth level of elixir.

When he reaches the late stage of Jindan, to a certain extent, both parties are already at the same starting point.

Perhaps, Daoyi Holy Son can mobilize more resources.

But everything still depends on the "result" in the end, and attainments in Qi refining, body refining, God refining, etc. are the final results!

"What's more, I don't have any advantages."

"The magical power is "withered". Although the direct attack power is extremely weak, it can weaken the opponent's strength in all aspects."

"Being in the same realm can weaken the opponent by 20%, and weaken it in all directions."

"This is my greatest advantage!"

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Liu Yu suddenly stood up.

Therefore, the "50% chance of winning" was indeed not an exaggeration. It was a conservative estimate considering that the other party was at the peak of the Golden Core and he had just entered the later stages of the Golden Core.

"So, with my current strength, I am already qualified to be among the top ten in the Central Realm's "Real Person Ranking"?!"

Thinking of this, Liu Yu smiled slightly.

When things are ready and his realm is extremely stable, he plans to end the retreat.

"If your cultivation reaches another level, it will be difficult to make great progress in a short period of time."

"In the next tens or hundreds of years, it will take a long period of accumulation."

"In addition to daily practice, it is also time to increase the schedule for collecting infant spiritual objects."

"Fortunately, one of the three treasures of birthing a baby, the "Ningying Dan", has been obtained."

While walking, Liu Yu thought silently, remaking his training plan for the next tens or hundreds of years.

Although his strength has improved further, he has not forgotten that this is the middle realm, with masters like clouds and monks like rain.

There are quite a few Nascent Soul True Monarchs, and there are also the Divine Monarchs of Transformation, so they still have to keep a low profile and at most let go a little bit.

No matter how much you control the golden elixir, you still have to be careful when facing the old monster Nascent Soul!

"tread"

While walking, Liu Yu seemed to have thought of something, and her steps suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, his mind was highly concentrated, and his spiritual sense spread into the space with all his strength.

Soon, many colorful light spots appeared in front of my eyes. Due to the effect of the fire attribute spirit gathering array, most of the light spots were red.

As his spiritual sense unfolds and his mind is highly concentrated, Liu Yu observes the details and enters a new and even smaller horizon.

The next moment, he saw the basic spiritual energy units that made up the wisps of spiritual energy.

But it didn't stop yet. The horizon continued to "fall" at an extremely fast speed, and everything he saw and heard suddenly changed.

In front of his eyes, overlapping shadows appeared again, and his vision once again entered the "spiritual" level.

The spiritual consciousness spread several times beyond the peak of the golden elixir and reached 150 miles. The power of Liu Yu's divine consciousness came out in an attempt to influence the ubiquitous "spiritual children".

One breath, two breaths, three breaths.

It's just a pity that it is no different from before.

Even if Liu Yu tried his best and used all kinds of spiritual skills, he still couldn't affect the "Spirit Son" at all.

After ten breaths, his mind relaxed a little, and he exited that vision.

"pity."

Liu Yu shook his head slightly and continued walking outside the practice room.

This observation is only slightly clearer than before, but not much different.

The increase in spiritual consciousness was huge, but the result was not much different. He realized that the key factor affecting the spirit son was probably not divine consciousness.

In other words, spiritual consciousness is an unimportant factor and has minimal influence.

"Rumble"

The formation slowly opened, making a dull sound.

"It seems that in the realm of golden elixir, there is no hope for me to explore the "spiritual son" level."

"Perhaps, only by breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm can it be possible to influence the "Spirit Son"."

Feeling a little disappointed, Liu Yu had this thought before walking out of the practice room.

"Squeak"

Close the attic formation, gently open the small window, and bright sunlight shines in.

As soon as the circular pattern on his chest lit up, Lieyang's mana instantly became more active, and Liu Yu's mind became peaceful.

Cultivation to the realm of "Scorching Sun" due to the passive effect of "Star True Body".

When he is under the light of the sun, moon, and stars, his physical training strength will increase to a greater or lesser extent.

"咻~咻~"

Not long after he closed his eyes and bathed in the sunlight, the sound of a long sword piercing the air could be heard in his ears, accompanied by the whistling of the wind.

"Um?"

Liu Yu opened her eyes, her consciousness swept out, and she stuck her head out to look into the courtyard.

On the green grass, a slender female cultivator was dancing with a sword.

The soft sunshine of the unitary hour fell on this girl's delicate body, and flying flowers and fallen leaves surrounded her body, gathering and scattering as the sword was swung.

As the sword light circulates, it looks like a beautiful picture, but it contains deadly murderous intent!

It was Zhuo Mengzhen.

When she came to the Central Territory, not only did Liu Yu feel heavy pressure, this woman also had a deep sense of crisis, so she practiced very hard.

Twenty-five years later, her cultivation has also improved further, and she is now approaching the peak of the middle stage of Jindan.
