Longevity starts with learning

From the low wooden house, cultivators walked out one after another.

The vast majority of the immortal cultivators who participated in the auction, or in other words, the vast majority of the immortal cultivators who were active in the black market, were mostly in disguise.

Smart people like Chu Mu use magic weapons or secret techniques to cover themselves, or they may simply change their appearance, or they may directly cover themselves with clothes and hats.

Chu Mu walked among them, inconspicuously.

In his arms was the auction house's jade order that had not been taken back. According to the information obtained before leaving, this underground auction house was held every six months, and anyone with the order could come to participate.

This auction was undoubtedly an eye-opener for Chu Mu.

Especially the Bright Moon Armor, which existed only as a fantasy creation in his previous life. This time, right before his eyes, it looked extremely mature!

From the various types of puppets seen in various cities, to the Bright Moon Armor just now...

This is for the weapon refining, and the puppet for the advanced weapon refining...

He has been aroused with endless yearning!

Even for alchemy, his purpose is simply to practice and to make money, rather than to have any great yearning or love for alchemy.

But for the weapon refining technique, and the puppet technique that is an advanced step in the weapon refining technique, he is indeed like this!

This feeling is just like the joke about rubbing aircraft carriers and nuclear bombs in the previous life. In this world of immortality, as long as he masters the art of weapon refining and accumulates enough knowledge, it will definitely come true!

Countless fantastic ideas can be turned into real reality!

At this moment, he is ready to return home!

The original plan to go to other black markets, or even the contact point of the Blood Killing Pavilion, was suppressed under this sudden return!

After leaving the black market, returning home was still as fast as an arrow. Chu Mu went straight to Jade Emperor Gufang City without stopping at all.

But this time, he didn't seem to be as lucky as before when he left Fengming Gufang City.

He was intercepted and killed no more than ten miles out of the black market!

Chu Mu was frightened at first, but he confirmed that it was not a premeditated interception as he imagined.

The fireball technique of returning to the original state is still a great weapon!

On the way back, my hands were stained with blood again.

However, this time, under the fireball bombing tactic, the two corpses were well preserved, and he had some spare power in the final blow.

Not because he wanted to leave a whole corpse for his opponent, but to preserve the loot and...

While the blood was infecting him, Chu Mu squatted in front of one of the corpses and raised his hand to cover his head. Immediately, a horrifying scene appeared.

Under the covered palm, a faint black shadow slowly emerged from the dead head.

Immediately, the black shadow became clearer and clearer, and the twisted black shadow seemed to be caught by the palm and pulled out of the head bit by bit.

In the end, a black shadow the size of a human head was suspended in Chu Mu's hands.

Faintly, it seemed that a humanoid face could be seen faintly in the black shadow. Its appearance was just like the resentful soul he had seen in Nanshan Town!

And this is the remnant soul of this dead immortal cultivator.

God appears and God is solid, God is solid and God appears!

Whenever a god appears, his soul is already stable.

Qi training state, in a sense, is also a process that makes the soul more stable and powerful.

As for the monks after the emergence of gods, after their death, as long as their souls are not deliberately destroyed and annihilated, basically their remnant souls will continue to exist for a certain period of time before slowly dissipating.

Chu Mu even heard that for monks who are above the realm of Qi training, their souls can still leave their bodies. Even if their physical bodies are destroyed, as long as their souls are not damaged, they can abandon their bodies and take the bodies of other immortal cultivators to be reborn!

However, it is said that there will be great restrictions on seizing the body, and he is not sure about the specifics.

But now this monk, this remnant soul is undoubtedly very clear.

He didn't deliberately hurt the soul, but the soul in the Qi training realm was too fragile after all. If he killed it, most of the soul would have been destroyed, leaving only the shapeless remnant soul in front of him.

While observing, Chu Mu suddenly thought of the monk souls being sold in Fangshi a few days ago.

If you want to get the complete soul, you have to extract the soul before the cultivator dies.

This is the so-called soul-extraction and soul-refining, an extremely cruel method!

But as far as he knows, the soul and body of immortal cultivators have extremely wide uses and are all very important...spiritual materials!

Chu Mu took out a dark black bottle purchased from the black market from the storage talisman. Its purpose was to preserve the soul.

Then the remnant soul was stuffed into the long bottle, and the other corpse did the same thing. The remnant soul was taken out and stuffed into the long bottle for preservation.

"Corpse..."

Chu Mu looked at the two corpses in front of him and frowned slightly.

This time, a lot of spiritual stones were spilled in the black market, and he gained a lot of knowledge. Although he only read a few pages of a lot of it, his vision was obviously different from before.

For example, in the past, he didn't know that the soul of an immortal cultivator was a kind of spiritual material, and after death, there would be residual souls.

The corpse of the cultivator is a more important spiritual material.

The most common auxiliary elixir for body refiners is the Qi and Blood elixir.

As for the Qi and Blood Pill, its main medicine is not some kind of elixir, but a cultivator...

The stronger the body, the stronger the effect of the qi and blood elixir refined by it!

The only fly in the ointment is that although the Qi and Blood Pill is very effective, because it is condensed from the body of an immortal cultivator, there must be the influence of the spiritual distractions of the immortal cultivator.

Therefore, after taking it, its mental distractions will subtly erode the soul of the cultivator.

Extreme personality, even mental disorder...

These are all consequences of this pill.

Although the consequences are serious, the pill is very cheap, the efficacy is very good, and... the refining method is very simple and widely circulated.

He wandered around the black market and easily got the refining method in his hands.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Mu raised his hand, and the scene he had seen under the archway in Nanshan Town also appeared in his hand.

The full corpse shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in his hand, a ball of blood-colored energy slowly compressed and eventually became a blood-colored pill the size of a pigeon egg.

Another corpse was also made in the same way.

Two blood-colored pills appeared in his hand, and in front of him were two already shriveled mummies.

A fireball was thrown casually, and the two mummies burned fiercely. In a few breaths, they turned into ashes.

Chu Mu stood still, and the memory of Nanshan Town emerged in his mind.

The cultivator of the Li family seemed to have used this method to refine the old man of Qili Village into a blood and qi pill.

And the boy of Qili Village...

Chu Mu had a deep memory of the scarlet in his eyes, the madness, and confusion when he got the puppet technique inheritance jade slip in the middle of the night...

At that time, there were quite a few inspectors and people in Nanshan Town who turned into mummies!

"It's useless!"

Chu Mu shook his head and sighed.

Using a cultivator to refine a blood and qi pill can at least remove the soul and spirit, leaving only a few mental distractions, which consumes time and energy, and can also minimize the impact.

And from his broadened understanding of this black market, the secular mortals have no soul and are in chaos.

If a mortal is made into a Qi and Blood Pill, it is basically equivalent to a poison that refines all the emotions and desires of that mortal throughout his life!

Taking one pill is equivalent to facing all the emotions and desires of a mortal throughout his life.

It is not difficult to guess why the young man was so mentally ill at the time!

If he went the wrong way, how could he be normal!

He casually threw two Qi and Blood Pills to the storage talisman. He did not want to use them, but was simply curious about the properties of this kind of pill.

Refining pills with flesh and blood is undoubtedly another completely different way. It may be a little reference to study it.

After this battle, it seems that he has shown his power. Going to the Yuhuang Valley Market, he is also peaceful all the way.

When he arrived at Yuning Town, it was already dusk.

After more than ten days, this town obviously did not change much.

Under the curling smoke, there is a faint fragrance of food and a little stench.

Old man Chen was still pulling the manure cart, collecting filth from door to door. The house opposite was still closed, and the female cultivator named Miaoyu seemed to be busy with her business.

Returning to the room, Chu Mu carefully checked the room after closing the door, and then he re-laid the micro partition restriction and opened it.

Behind the restriction partition, Chu Mu sat cross-legged in the room and took out several storage talismans from his arms.

A trip to the black market, spending thousands of spirit stones, naturally the harvest was not small.

There were more than 20 books of various types, covering all aspects. Chu Mu did not select them too strictly. As long as he felt that they were somewhat useful, he bought them all.

The contents of the books were mostly superficial. Except for a few basic books, such as the basic knowledge books on the fire attribute inscriptions and several books on body refining techniques, most of the others could only be used to broaden cognition.

There were four jade slips in total, three of which were owned by him, namely, alchemy, barbarian bull techniques, and puppetry. The last one was a weapon refining notebook bought at the underground auction house.

It was said to be a basic inheritance left by a weapon refining master. The price was there, which should be able to meet his needs.

In addition, six bottles of pills were also purchased on the black market.

There were two kinds of pills in total, one was called the body quenching pill and the other was the marrow cleansing pill. Both were pills for body refining and auxiliary cultivation. Three bottles of each cost hundreds of spirit stones.

The only drawback was that he did not find any trace of the body refining pill formula he wanted, and only found the weird thing called the Qi and Blood Pill.

In addition, there were some spoils of war.

For example, the invisible needle, and the two immortal cultivators who killed him on the way back, two residual souls, two blood and qi pills, and a low-grade magic weapon.

The rest were some of his own belongings, hundreds of meridian nourishing pills, more than two thousand low-grade spirits, and some talismans he had purchased before.

As for the defensive magic weapon he wanted to buy, he didn't find one that suited his taste in the black market.

All his belongings were in front of him.

…

Three thousand more
