Immortality begins with sect servants
Chapter 178 Cultivation in the Tiansha Mountains (long chapter)
Mrs. She took Li An directly towards the south.
"To be honest with you Daoist Lin, I have been practicing on Lingyun Mountain in the south. Although Lingyun Mountain's spiritual veins are also Ding-level, the evil spirit is the least among Ding-level."
As she walked, Mrs. She said: "Recently, because of some meritorious services, I was granted permission by the mountain master to enter the Class C spiritual vein to practice. The spiritual vein where I was originally was temporarily freed up."
Li An knew in his heart that if he hadn't performed well in front of the mountain master and Xiaoying, Mrs. She would not have brought him here.
For the core benefit of spiritual veins, the little favor he gave was far from enough!
"This is Lingyun Mountain."
The two landed in front of several peaks. "Lingyun Mountain's spiritual veins involve a total of four peaks, namely Lingdong Peak, Lingjing Peak, Lingyuan Peak, and Lingsha Peak. Among them, Lingsha Peak is where the evil energy gathers. It’s difficult to use, but other places are good.”
Madam She spoke, and after speaking, she walked to the front of the mountain and waved her spiritual power, and ripples of the formation suddenly appeared in front of her.
Several rays of light flew over from the mountain.
"Sister She, why are you back? Hey, who is this?"
The first person to arrive was a beautiful woman with a plump figure and affectionate eyebrows. She had a romantic temperament that was quite seductive.
When she asked the question, another ray of light had already fallen. This was a man whose brows seemed to be permanently furrowed. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but there seemed to be an inexplicable anger in his eyes. He said:
"Fellow Daoist She——"
Mrs. She smiled and said: "I brought this fellow Taoist Lin An here. He has just entered the sect of Lord Baishan and has been approved by Lord Bai. He needs to find a place to practice his spiritual veins."
Both of them glanced at Li An, and the beautiful woman was quite surprised in her eyes.
"I'm Lin An, Talisman Master. I'm here for the first time. Please take care of me, my two Taoist friends."
Li An bowed his hand.
"He will live in my old Lingjing Peak to practice from now on. What do you two think?" Mrs. She asked.
"Why should we be worried about the people brought here by Sister She? Fellow Daoist Lin, you are welcome."
The beautiful woman smiled.
The middle-aged man nodded slightly.
…
Immediately, Li An entered Lingyun Mountain and climbed to Lingjing Peak.
The four peaks of Lingyun Mountain are close to each other, and their auras are not weak. Although there are some evil spirits, compared to those encountered along the way, they are indeed superior!
The main reason is that the terrain here is unique. Although the entire spiritual vein is polluted by evil spirits, Lingsha Peak has concentrated a large amount of evil spirits, which takes a lot of responsibility for the other three peaks.
Li An also knew that the beautiful woman was named Zhou Libai, and she was a third-level puppet master who lived in Lingdong Peak.
The middle-aged man's name is Xiang Yuntian, a swordsman who lives in Lingyuan Peak.
They are all true alchemy practitioners!
In addition to the two of them, there was another person - Zhou Libai's husband Ba Jijian, a weapon refiner. Because he was in retreat, he never came out to meet her.
There is also a cave on Lingjing Peak left by Mrs. She. She took Li An to get familiar with the environment, explained some things, and then left.
…
Li An was the only one left on Lingjing Peak.
Feeling the spiritual energy around him, Li An felt quite happy.
From today on, we can truly settle down in the Tiansha Mountains.
He first placed two sets of second-level formations on Lingjing Peak to cover up, then repaired and transformed Madam She's cave, and then placed a set of third-level formations around the cave!
After doing all this, he entered the cave.
"The spiritual energy is not weak, but the evil energy is also quite strong!"
After feeling it for a while, Li An couldn't help but smile.
Here, he can practice life-nurturing immortality and magic skills at the same time!
For him, it is definitely a treasure.
But what he wanted to go to the most was Lingsha Peak.
The ratio of spiritual energy and evil energy in Lingjing Peak is almost five to one.
That is to say, if you absorb five parts of spiritual energy, you will be entrained with one part of evil spirit.
There is a lot of evil energy concentrated on Lingsha Peak. If you feel it from a distance, at least the ratio of spiritual energy to evil energy is about three to one!
But going over now would definitely seem abrupt and strange, so Li An was not in a hurry, just waited and figured it out.
What's more, in addition to Lingsha Peak, there are many spiritual veins in Lord Baishan's territory that are even more evil and that no one can practice!
He sorted out the current situation.
The spiritual veins have been established, the Life-nurturing Immortal Technique and the Immortal Demon Technique can be practiced normally, and the Taiyin Qi and Demonic Qi can both increase at the same time.
Among the main cultivation techniques, there is no shortage of metal materials needed for Jinzang Jue for the time being, and it can still last for a while.
Three Yuan Zhan has been completed, which is his main fighting method. With his current level of spiritual power, it is very powerful and can easily threaten the mid-term True Pill.
But his talismans and formations are currently in trouble.
In addition to formations, he has been in Jiang's family for many years and has not been able to obtain the fourth-level formation materials. However, fortunately, with his current level, he can only make the third-level formations in the Demon Sect's formation inheritance, and the Demon Sect's third-level formations The strength of the method is far beyond the ordinary third level, which is enough for now.
Just keep an eye out for level four materials.
But the talisman...
He is in urgent need of the fourth-level talisman inheritance!
The talismans he has in hand only reach the third level. The current third-level runes are no longer a problem for him, and he can reach the fourth level.
"Do you have the fourth-level talisman inheritance within your demon sect?"
He couldn't help asking Shangguan Xiaoxiao.
"Do you think our Demon Cult collects rags? We have everything?"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao said disdainfully: "The talisman is too low-level, it is just the introductory method of Tianshi Dao... I taught several inheritances of Tianshi Dao in the past, but I was too busy at the time and had no time to learn."
Li An: "..."
"What else have you learned about alchemy, weapon refining, medical skills...cultivating immortals?"
He decided to empty Shangguan Xiaoxiao at once!
"There are only formations. The formations were only used as a reference when I was playing chess with my master... All the professions of cultivating immortals are burdensome. If you can practice the Immortal Demon Kung Fu to a high level, any formation talisman can be broken with one punch. Of."
When it comes to the Immortal Demon Skill, she is very domineering, and at the same time she becomes more and more helpless towards Li An.
The extremely domineering Immortal Demon Art was destined to fall on one Li Gou!
Lost the devil.
It's too weak!
"Well... I also learned some alchemy and some basic techniques, which I can give to you."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, waved his hand, and a piece of information rushed into Li An's mind.
Li An hurriedly checked.
"Alchemy, up to the fourth level!"
He was immediately pleasantly surprised.
This fourth-level alchemy technique alone is priceless.
Moreover, he is indeed planning to learn alchemy in the near future.
Li An had not been involved in this technique before. The biggest reason was that his qualifications were too poor and his spiritual skills were not good enough.
After all, alchemy and weapon refining are the most popular among all the professions of cultivating immortals, but they also have the highest threshold. They must have sufficient spiritual root sensitivity. Unlike talismans, as long as you are willing to work hard and have resources to smash, you can always reap something.
In fact, formations also require very high levels of understanding and spiritual ability. High-level formations are often ever-changing and mysterious, and require a genius to achieve them.
However, low-level basic formations have something in common with talismans, and there are patterns to be found, so at the current stage, he has not encountered difficulties with formations.
Now, after three hundred years of nurturing life seeds, Li An's spiritual roots have reached the lower level of Xuan level!
Generally speaking, low-grade Xuan-level spiritual roots can easily build foundations, and the probability of forming pills is relatively high, so they can be regarded as geniuses.
Naturally, alchemy can also be involved.
This is the incredible thing about the Secret of Nourishing Life and Casting Immortals. As long as you keep living and make changes over the years, you will eventually gain something!
He determined his next goal.
First, learn to make alchemy.
Second, look for the fourth-level talisman inheritance.
Third, collect fourth-level array materials, various high-level metal materials, etc.
Of course, the most important thing is to find opportunities to practice in spiritual veins with stronger evil spirits such as Lingsha Peak.
"Are you hungry?"
Xiao Qing flew out of his sleeve. Li An fed him the spiritual food and left it alone in the cave. Then Li An got up and headed to the other two peaks to visit his neighbors.
He went to Lingyuan Peak first.
"No need to be polite, I'm busy!"
Sword cultivator Xiang Yuntian didn't even open the peak protection formation for him. He stood on the mountainside with his brows furrowed and said, "You have something to say!"
This swordsman has a very bad temper... Li An said: "I just came to visit my good neighbor..."
"forget about it."
Turn directly to Yuntian.
Li An was stunned.
This person is really...inhumane.
"correct,"
However, Xiang Yuntian suddenly turned around and asked, "What gift did you give me?"
Li An said: "Well...this is a little bit of my heart."
Then he presented a box and flew out of the formation to the sky. He took the box with one hand, opened it in front of his face, took a look at it, and nodded: "Okay, it's not stingy."
"You are so generous, can I give you a gift too?"
He suddenly stared at Li An solemnly, "Remember this, stay away from that woman at Lingdong Peak, otherwise... you will die!"
There seemed to be a flash of evil in his eyes. He took the box given by Li An and turned around into the mountain to close the formation.
Li An: "..."
"The evil spirit attacks the heart and makes you insane?"
Li An narrowed his eyes.
Xiang Yuntian obviously had some problems, and the evil spirit on his body was also very heavy.
Listening to Xiang Yuntian's words, is there any adultery with Zhou Libai from Lingdong Peak? So Ang Lee is not allowed to get involved?
Li An pondered for a moment, then turned around and flew towards Lingdong Peak without paying much attention.
Compared with Xiang Yuntian's coldness, Zhou Libai is very enthusiastic towards Li An. She seems to be dressed more revealingly on weekdays. The skirt she wears is like a gauze, looming. She behaves well but is charming and affectionate. She personally makes tea for Li An. , the fragrant wind comes in bursts.
"I heard from Sister She that Fellow Daoist Lin has a bird that the mountain owner likes very much. I wonder if you have brought your bird with you? Can you let me see it?"
Zhou Libai spoke curiously.
Li An said: "It's just an ordinary bird, it has some spirituality. I put it at home... If fellow Taoists want to see it, you are welcome to visit at any time."
Zhou Libai laughed when she heard this, "Okay, I also raised a butterfly, but I am accompanying my Taoist companion in retreat. If there is a chance later, I can let my butterfly get closer to your bird~~"
If you were an ordinary person, you would probably feel a little shaken in your heart. After all, Zhou Libai is really beautiful, and a decent young woman with such a hint of coquettishness is very charming.
But Li An was very cautious and gave him a gift, saying: "Lin will not disturb fellow Taoist fellow Taoist——"
Say goodbye and leave.
Both of these neighbors are not easy to deal with.
The sword is pointed towards the sky, and the evil spirit enters the body. This kind of person is very dangerous, and he may go crazy at any time.
Zhou Libai is even more troublesome. The Taoist monk is in retreat, and he might be hooking up with Xiang Yuntian...
It would be best to try not to interact with each other in the future.
…
In the blink of an eye, one year has passed.
"The energy of Taiyin has finally gathered together!"
Li An was quite happy.
He has absorbed a lot of taiyin energy for many years in the Jiang clan. Now, after another year of hard training, he finally condensed a ray of formed taiyin energy in his dantian.
Its Qi is like the moonlight, cold and deep, but it is the foundation of the Purple Mansion.
If it weren't for the help of magic power, if you wanted to get such a ray of lunar energy, you would have to spend at least seven to eight thousand middle-grade spiritual stones and buy three to five rare and high-priced elixirs.
Seven or eight thousand pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones are not a small amount for a pill-forming cultivator.
As a golden elixir cultivator, Li An's daily consumption of spiritual stones was far more than that of a true elixir cultivator. However, without extra expenditures dedicated to cultivation, only four to five hundred mid-grade spiritual stones a month would be enough.
He only has a total of more than 60,000 middle-grade spiritual stones on his body. If he spends money to buy elixirs and absorb the lunar energy, he will not be able to last a few times.
It is already extremely difficult to form a pill, and it is even more difficult for a pill-forming cultivator to reach the Nascent Soul.
Even if the qualifications are sufficient, the cost required is unimaginably sky-high.
To nourish Zifu and achieve Nascent Soul, every step is an accumulation of resources.
It can be said that the Immortal Demon Skill has allowed Li An to save a large amount of spiritual stones. At least he does not have to spend money to buy elixirs and absorb the energy of the lunar calendar.
The absorption from the spiritual veins will be slower. Others may be able to absorb a wisp of lunar energy in one day using elixirs, but Li An needs several years to obtain it from the spiritual veins.
According to the current progress, it will take at least two hundred years for the Zi Mansion to be completed.
But, Ang Lee is not in a hurry!
"Demon energy accumulates slowly..."
His heart moved, and a black demonic energy was suddenly released from his lungs, mixed with a metallic luster, and densely covered his whole body!
Immortal Demonic Armor.
Li An is confident that the current second-level magic weapon cannot break through his defense at all.
It has been considered a small success.
The accumulation of demonic energy is also very important. In addition to the Immortal Demon Skill, if Li An wants to practice other magical powers and spells in the future, he will also need to accumulate demonic energy.
"Complete mastery of first-grade alchemy..."
He took out a bottle of the recently refined elixir - Qingsha Dan!
Qingsha Dan has a round luster and is considered top grade.
He was very satisfied. Based on his current spiritual consciousness, cultivation, and spiritual roots, his study of alchemy was also making rapid progress.
He became a first-grade alchemist in just one year, which was considered a very fast progress.
And he mainly refined the Qingsha Pill, and he also had some plans.
In the Tiansha Mountains, Qingsha Pills can almost be said to be hard currency!
Because most of the cultivators who practice here are practicing in Ding and other spiritual veins, they will be contaminated with evil spirits, and the Qingsha Pill is the most useful thing to cleanse evil spirits.
After Li An was able to refine the Qingsha Pill, he had two benefits: First, he could sell it to increase his income. Secondly, it can conceal his own magic power.
After all, if Li An practiced in Ding and other spiritual veins but never purchased the Qingsha Pill, there must be something wrong.
In addition, Li An is now thoroughly familiar with the rules of the Tiansha Mountains: in addition to paying spiritual stones to the mountain owner, tenants must also maintain a certain "contribution", otherwise the level of the spiritual vein they live in will be downgraded, and there is no way to downgrade it. will be driven away.
There are two ways to obtain contributions: 1. Undertake tasks issued by the mountain owner. 2. Turn in specific supplies.
Among the supplies are Qingsha Dan!
After all, if the mountain owner wants to control the cultivators in his jurisdiction, he will definitely control the supplies they urgently need. This is how Mrs. She was promoted to the third-level spiritual vein.
The first-grade Qingsha Pill is of little use and is completely useless to a true elixir cultivator, but when he becomes a second-grade alchemist, he can use the Qingsha Pill in exchange for contribution points.
…
He stood up and stretched, Xiaoqing stood on his shoulder like a stone sculpture.
The divine bird seems to be symbiotic with him. In addition to spiritual stones and spiritual food, it has also been practicing with the help of his life-seed aura.
Divine Bird's cultivation is faster than that of Li An, and he is about to break through the middle stage of Jindan.
In fact, this is the case where it has inexplicably slowed down after absorbing the aura of Li An's life seed, otherwise it should be faster!
"Is Fellow Daoist Lin here?"
At this time, a voice came from outside.
Li An walked out, activated the second-level formation to protect the mountain, and saw a man and a woman walking up.
Zhou Libai and her Taoist companion, the weapon refiner Ba Jijian.
Zhou Libai is as beautiful as ever, charming and plump, but Ba Jijian is thin and has sunken eye sockets, as if she was malnourished, and looks more stale.
Li An was quite curious. He could see that Zhou Libai had not practiced Yin-Yang Demonic Kung Fu, so how could she make a true elixir cultivator so thin?
Is there really an indestructible field in this world that can even make true elixir cultivators unable to bear it?
"Two fellow Taoists, please quickly—"
"Fellow Daoist Lin, we are here to invite you to accompany us."
Ba Ji gradually became taciturn, but Zhou Libai spoke up, "We are going to go to Ghost Demon Valley to look for some opportunities. I wonder if fellow Taoist Lin can go with us?"
Gui Sha Valley, Li An also knew this place.
It is said that the reason why the Tiansha Mountains are so evil is because there once was a bloody battle between the human race and the demon race, and too many people died in the overhaul.
Therefore, there are many opportunities buried in the Tiansha Mountains, including demon pills, demon flowers, demon magic weapons, etc. If you can get them and give them to the mountain owner, it is a contribution.
The contribution of Zhou Libai and his wife should be almost enough to change the spiritual veins.
"I'm sorry, I'm preparing to practice in seclusion recently——"
Li An refused. In the first three years after entering the Tiansha Mountains, there was no need to turn in contributions. He was not in a hurry.
And he already has a way to exchange contribution points later.
He didn't even want to go to all kinds of dangerous places.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, you only have two years, don't you think about it? If you don't make enough contributions in two years, you may not even be able to live in this small group of spiritual veins..."
Zhou Libai reminded with a smile, "It's useless even if you have a bird, the rules are strict."
"In addition... this trip to Ghost Demon Valley was initiated by fellow Taoist Bai Jiang. He sent invitations to us all, but you are in retreat and did not receive them."
She took out an invitation and handed it to Li An. The invitation was indeed for him.
"Bai Jiang supports a spiritual beast with good talent. This time he went to Guisha Valley to find a chance for the spirit beast to become a demon. Once successful, Bai Jiang will be able to follow the monster beast and become the official subordinate of Lord Baishan. When the time comes, ...Fellow Daoist Lin is not afraid of offending him?"
Li An pondered.
He already knew that this Bai Jiang was actually Jiang Ribai!
Jiang Ribai came to visit Lord Bai Shan, and was indeed almost killed. However, he was wise enough to sacrifice his ability to control beasts, and spent all his energy to cure a spiritual beast that Lord Bai Shan was interested in.
Beloved ever since.
In the Tiansha Mountains, if you can support a spiritual beast and help the spiritual beast achieve demonization, the status of the worshiper will also be improved accordingly.
It is said that there is a chance to enter the demon clan!
The Monster Clan, as the oldest force, has unfathomable foundations. Having the Monster Clan as a backer is definitely more comfortable than being a casual cultivator.
For example, Bai Jiang, if he really succeeds, he will be able to obtain the resources in the entire Baishan main jurisdiction.
The main thing in Baishan is the things of the demon clan. Most of the resources used by human cultivators are not used by the demon clan!
Moreover, its status will be very high.
Therefore, you can go or not go to Bai Jiang's invitation, but if you don't go, you have to consider whether it will offend him...
Li An pondered for a moment, "Where is fellow Taoist Xiang Yuntian?"
"He is just a stinking stone in a latrine, and he is poor and stingy. He can't even afford the Evil Elixir Pill. The evil spirit has already entered his body and he is almost dead, so he naturally doesn't think about it."
When Zhou Libai mentioned Xiang Yuntian, she was very disdainful.
Li An couldn't help being shocked. Before, Li An thought that Xiang Yuntian and Zhou Libai were having an affair...
However, Li An thought for a moment and said:
"Thanks for the reminder, fellow Taoist, but Lin An really doesn't want to go yet."
First, there are so many true elixir cultivators under Lord Bai, so obviously not everyone gives Jiang Ribai face, and Li An is not alone.
Secondly, Ang Lee is, to some extent, related to the White Mountain Master - Sakura.
"Forget it, in that case, I and my wife won't force it."
Zhou Libai didn't say anything else, and the two left immediately.
After they left.
Li An got up and prepared to go to Tiansha City.
Just after leaving the Dongmai Mountains, he found an uninhabited land, changed his appearance, transformed into an old man, and then went straight to Tiansha City.
Enter a stone temple.
Long wait.
The true elixir cultivators who came to participate in the transaction arrived one after another. There were four people in total, each exchanging what they needed.
Li An sold some things and then said, "I would like to buy a fourth-level evil-suppressing talisman."
Evil Suppressing Talismans are also in short supply in the Tiansha Mountains, and most cultivators will buy some. It is normal to buy this.
"Is the third level okay?" a cultivator asked.
"No, the ruins I want to explore must be level 4!"
Li An shook his head. Seeing that there were not many true elixir cultivators, he settled for the next best thing: "If you can provide information about the fourth-level talisman master, you can -"
But in the end nothing was found.
Li An did not give up. In the next period of time, he came out from time to time. Finally, one day, he got a piece of news from a true elixir cultivator:
"I do know that there is a fourth-level talisman master under the jurisdiction of Lord Nanmai Jieshan. However, I have rarely heard from him in the past two years. Maybe he is in retreat."
"This Talisman Master's surname is Cao, and he lives in the Yintai Valley of the West Vein."
Li An readily gave the reward.
"Fourth level talisman master..."
Now that we have a direction, it’s time to prepare slowly.
Returning to the main territory of Baishan, he took Xiaoqing to visit Miss Sakura and presented many precious spiritual foods.
No matter where you are, relationship management is very important!
"Why don't you go to Ghost Demon Valley?"
While Xiaoying was eating the spiritual food he gave her and teasing the little red bird, she said, "Although the little lizard in Baijiang is ugly, the mountain master likes it very much..."
"It should be almost transformed."
"You have to work harder and make Xiaohong transform quickly, so that I can have someone of the same kind to play with me..."
Obviously, Sakura likes Little Red Bird simply because Little Red and she are the same kind, they are both birds!
"Lin An must work hard!"
Li An smiled slightly, but his heart was shuddering.
It seems like Jiang Ribai...is really going to get out?
…
More than ten days later, Zhou Libai and his wife returned.
They gained a lot!
"Fellow Daoist Lin, if I ask you to go, you won't go. If you go this time, you have earned enough by living here for ten years!"
Zhou Libai was in high spirits, but Li An discovered that her husband Ba Jijian had become thinner and more depressed.
"Congratulations,"
Li An just smiled and continued practicing.
But on this day, the second month after Zhou Libai and his wife came back, a voice came:
"Open the formation——"
This voice made Li An familiar for a while. After the Lingyun Mountain Mountain Protection Formation was activated, he saw an old man in white robes walking through the air and said proudly: "Cultivators here, come out and see me!"
This person is clearly...Jiang Ribai!
Li An couldn't help but frown, what was he doing here?
