Out of the cage

Chapter 985 Chapter 22.03 Merits!

After the giant monster's body was accurately backlashed by the aura tide in the secret realm, Taotie realized that a trap had already been set where he was standing. Of course, what shocked him even more was that the star array that appeared in this mortal world, it actually looked Can't tell where it came from.

When Taotie made further distinctions, the big formation had already been activated.

Without the protection of the giant monster's body, the true spirit was exposed to the thunder and fire generated by the power of the celestial gang and the thousands of evil spirits generated by the geomagnetic element. Like a candle in a storm, the true spirit struggled and swayed, and was finally smashed into pieces by a heavy raindrop. There was blue smoke.

Taotie's true spirit is finally destroyed under Wei Keng's sword light

In this blow, Wei Keng's hazy face was covered by Xinggang, so Taotie didn't see through Wei Keng at the last moment.

The thunder vortex and the earth evil surged in the secret realm, like an incineration furnace, and the gluttonous true spirit would have no misfortune in it.

However, during Wei Keng's observation and measurement, he found that a small number of souls escaped destruction. That Taotie activated the secret technique, escaped a little,

Wei Keng looked at the gluttonous true spirit falling like a string, and made some calculations.

Wei Keng: "I won't be able to make waves for about a hundred years. This time is enough for me."

After the Taotie True Spirit regains its cultivation, it will not be hidden, because its nature is greedy and greedy, if it sticks to perfection. That would violate the true nature of the spirit.

...cause and effect dividing line, small theater...

Fellow Daoist Sanxiu Zhuo, staring at the distorted and deformed monster in front of him, was stunned, and whispered: "Gaotie?"

This fellow Taoist Zhuo was about to run away, but then he found that the aura of this gluttonous true spirit was very unstable. During the transformation of this pig monster, some inexplicable cuts appeared, as if there were blades coming out of its body.

Zhuo Zixu was stunned, and immediately realized that the sequelae of this beast being injured by that powerful swordsman in the secret realm are still there.

At this time, the true spirit had just fled to the lower realm, looking at the flying stars in the sky, with fear in its anger, it had just descended to the lower realm, and was beaten to a half by this terrifying innate human race. However, he escaped now. It stuck out its scarlet tongue and looked at the foundation-building cultivator in front of it, showing its white teeth.

But then, Zhenling found that this guy was not easy to mess with. Facing the alchemy stage talisman, the alchemy stage pet, and the magic fire supernatural power, this gluttonous true spirit dropped the cruel words of "wait for me", Driving the fishy wind to leave.

And Zhuo Zixu understood that he and his brother Liang Zi took over.

Zhuo Zixu: The catastrophe is approaching, we must quickly restore the cultivation of alchemy,

...Somewhere, the original entanglement was replaced by another entanglement. …

At this time, Wei Keng was the only one left in the secret realm. In this thousands of miles of secret realm, the spiritual energy began to shrink to the veins that Wei Keng had opened up. Under the rewinding and squeezing of Xinggang, the spiritual energy is flowing faster and faster in the veins of the earth at this time. This time, the spiritual energy in the secret realm will not accumulate in some specific terrain to form a spiritual land, but will start to pulsate as if a person is alive. The wave is squeezed, and the spiritual energy in the secret realm also opens and pulses like a heartbeat.

In the secret realm, Wei Keng once again stayed for a full fifteen days. Wei Keng was like a duck to water in the star gang. Just like a mortal martial artist, he enthusiastically opened up the stagnant place in the veins, and also adjusted the secret realm outside the sky.

In the caves of the secret realm, the monsters bowed their heads when they saw Wei Keng coming, as if they had seen them in the star palace, the monster clan emperor!

Before that, Wei Keng was very domineering in the secret realm, kicking snakes and toads, he was so fierce that he had already accumulated evil spirits.

And in the battle of the true spirit, the monsters in the whole secret realm felt trembling when they smelled Wei Keng's breath.

Wei Keng can stay here a little longer than other monks, but it is still limited. The secret realm is constantly moving away from the mainland.

Finally, before Wei Keng was about to leave the "Magnetic Yuan Force" range of the Zhengzhou Continent of Immortal Cultivation Continent, Wei Keng slashed the boundary-breaking sword, opening a passage like a soaring ascension, and leaped towards the Continent of Cultivation of Immortals in Zhengzhou Continent.

In the process of reopening the teleportation array, Wei Keng deployed various spiritual power bands, that is, a large number of prohibition runes.

The engineering volume of this kind of mathematics is no less than that of the spaceship in the main world. At this time, the system played its greatest role and calculated the orbit with the least influence in the Tiangang storm. However, even so, Wei Keng also felt a strong tearing force

…In the upper east of the Zhengzhou Continent, in the middle of the Dazong Dynasty, the years have been quiet, and a meteor has returned...

In Lujia Town, a group of armored warriors with knives and guns locked down the entire town. These warriors are all in the Qi training period, and the armor on their bodies is uniform. This is very unusual, because most immortal cultivators are extraordinary, how can they wear uniforms?

In Lujia Town, the leading young man in robes came out and said in a clear voice: "Wang Baitian, you can't escape. After we, Hei Yue, accept the mission, it's useless for you to escape to the ends of the earth!"

At this time, the group of siege warriors had gathered the entire village together, and ghost banners were erected around the villages and towns. Some fang-covered ghosts had even escaped from the control of the ghost banners, and they stretched out their black arms to catch them. Mortals come to chew. .

In the midst of howling, an old pedantic person came out with a magic weapon in his hand, a judge's pen.

The old teacher came out, looked at the surrounding villagers who looked at him with complaints and fear, sighed, and said to the leaders of Black Moon: "Blood Snake, why do you embarrass these mortals? "

The person called Blood Snake said: "Haha, Bone Rat! I'm so surprised that you suddenly showed mercy."

The old pedant sighed: "Blood Snake, I have worked for Black Moon for most of my life, so I can't live in peace for a while?"

Blood Snake: "After entering the Black Moon, you should know that you are born as a Black Moon person and die as a Black Moon ghost. This is the order of the young master."

The old pedant raised his hands to prepare for the fight, the blood snake sneered and unfolded the magic circle, and immediately countless blood snakes appeared on the ground, pouring into the town, and all the villagers cried out in surprise, "Shangxian, spare me!".

Seeing this scene, the old pedant scolded: "Blood Snake, you have done so many unrighteous actions, aren't you afraid of retribution!"

The blood snake laughed loudly: "Retribution, for me, the master is the sky, you~"

At this moment, he became dumb, because his entire snake formation stopped for an instant, all the snakes scattered away like earthworms as if they had sensed a natural enemy, and all the magic weapons were trembling.

Immediately afterwards, there was an explosion in the sky, and a hole was blasted, and a golden chariot in the hole was forcibly pulled over.

The blood snake was stunned, because the young master on the chariot was their young master, the young master of Bailingmen. At this time, the young master who had established a foundation and practiced Dzogchen was obviously looking at his subordinates (Blood Snake) on task. There were still wine glasses and beautiful women on the side, but now they were suddenly taken down from behind the scenes.

The arrogance on the face of the young master of Bailingmen who was still the chess player just now disappeared, and he looked respectful: "Senior, junior's father is a real Honghu. I didn't know that senior was here. I offended you. Forgive me, forgive me." This point clarified his identity, and he was trying to make the other party fearful.

However, there was a joking voice in the air: "Are you reminding me to kill you? Let me kill you, Bai Lingmen. Your sect has not shown up for nearly a thousand years. You wait for the outside world to keep your tail tight." , dare to go against the grain!"

It was Wei Keng who spoke.

Wei Keng emerged from the clouds and mists, but his whole body was covered by clouds (mirage). He took a look at the blood snake, and those soldiers. To a certain extent, it is a panacea, so Wei Keng is not interested in talking to these little ants.

Wei Keng: "Go back and remind your suzerain, I am a small-minded person, if you still want to search the souls of mortals here, all the disciples of your sect have to be careful."

The young master immediately said: "This junior understands."

Wei Keng turned to look at him, and said with an apologetic expression, "I didn't tell you."

Gentle and elegant, he raised his hand and waved at his head, and a burst of spiritual energy was drawn out in an instant, and the young master's cultivation base collapsed immediately, and then he immediately wailed because the spiritual root was gone.

And the blood snake was silent like a cicada, and the young master's dual spiritual roots were gone. How would they feel better as slaves? I'm afraid it's not about being drawn out. As for these mortals, will Bai Lingmen offend an unidentified high-ranking monk for these unimportant people?

Wei Keng looked at these crippled monks who had their spirits cut off, sighed, and said to himself: Don't say no to high-level monks if you don't have enough ability. For high-level monks, every "no" They are all restrained by nature, and they all have to be faced in the catastrophe of the heart demon. Of course, monks can restrain their nature for the sake of the Dao and make trade-offs for the benefit, but you incompetent and scumbags are also worthy of being "dusted"?

Wei Keng turned to the mortals in the village: So don't let go of the arrogance in your heart, and regard it as your "natural cultivation".

...Ninety-nine percent of Wei Keng's words are for himself to hear...

One year after the end of the secret realm, nothing happened to Fang Juemen! Outside the teleportation formation, the Supreme Elder immediately swept Zhang Zheng over with his sword energy, and sent him to the spiritual land for retreat. As for the other monks in the late stage of the foundation period, they walked through the spiritual mirror. These disciples were too relaxed in this trial. Although the sect would not take advantage of their opportunities, they still had to beat them hard.

As for Yunli, the Supreme Elder said that within ten years, he could not leave the sect. Nurturing one's spirituality, closing the dead gate and breaking through the golden core.

Before Yunli closed the death test, the elder Taishang took out the comprehensions to guarantee the formation of pills such as "Jiejin Dan" and "Guyuan Lingshui" to her—but when giving the pills, he narrated meaningfully: "It's good to do it for yourself." .”

Zongmen's attitude towards Wei Keng has quietly changed now. With such an attitude of "successor disciples of the sect", instead of looking at the elixir before. Now this disciple has not come back, so if he wants this disciple to return, he must strengthen his thoughts, for example, brothers of the same school and other people with affection are walking on the road of longevity.

However, just after Fang Juemen thought that Wei Keng would be wandering outside for decades, Wei Keng hurried back after almost a cold and summer.

The reason for rushing back is very simple. When he came back to "go to work", Wei Keng in the sect snapped his fingers at the elders who were interrogating him, and said to him, "Do you want to adjust the spiritual materials? The latest fusion of the elixir in the furnace Steps have to be added, do you want to guide the spiritual veins of the cave?" He looked like he was in charge of the sect.

This natural appearance made the Supreme Elder who happened to be in the sect speechless for a while, dared to run around outside, and then came back on time and had to be praised.

To put it another way, Wei Keng was found by the disciples outside the sect and then caught by the Supreme Elder, so he was definitely thrown into the Lingyuan.

For the elders of Fangjuemen Taishang: It’s like the owner raised a canary and released it, fearing that it would not fly back, but he didn’t expect that this bird recognized his family. Of course, even if the canary recognizes his family, he will not release Wei Keng at will now, because at this time there are falcons hunting the "canary" in the outside world of immortality.

On the main vein of Fang Juezong's spiritual vein, the Supreme Elder Jing Yuzhen was sipping tea. Wei Keng waited for a few minutes.

Jing Yuzhen: "Boy Wei, what do you think about the situation of my three northern sects and the six Yunling sects during the trip to the spiritual realm?"

After all, the seven sects of Yunling are currently fighting among themselves, and the other six sects are busy destroying the Demon Heart Sect, but it involves the intervention of the Black Curse Sect, a giant in the Daxuan Dynasty. So now the six Yunling sects are grouped together, and they have begun to shift their attention from dealing with Shanghengjianzong to preventing themselves from being invaded—this is the paradox of alliances. Alliances make each sect feel powerful, but in fact they don’t know it. I feel that I have provoked more and more opponents.

Elder Jing Taishang asked Wei Keng this question at this time, not to seek Wei Keng's opinion. These Yuanying ancestors are all millennia old, and they are very shrewd in judging the direction of the sect.

So Wei Keng quickly understood the question of the elder Taishang, and gave the answer: "The disciple will not travel far." (This attitude tells the children and parents, "Only play at the door of the house, not out of the compound")

Jing Yuzhen nodded, and raised his hand to give Wei Keng a square scarf to wrap his hair. This magic weapon is made of a rare lotus root silk thread. There are two pieces in total. One is at Wei Keng's place. The other one is at the elder's place. Obviously, the elder Jing did not ground Wei Keng, but it is strictly forbidden to stay thousands of kilometers away from the sect. After refilling the tea, the Supreme Elder waved Wei Keng to go down.

Ever since, Wei Keng passed the trip to the secret realm like this.

Undercurrents continue to surge in the realm of comprehension. In the past five years, Fang Juemen's posture has remained as immovable as a mountain gate, and the Yunling Six Sects are facing difficult resistance to the invasion of the Demon Sect. The over one hundred thousand has been reduced to fifty thousand, and one-third of the foundation-building period has been eliminated. The big and small Xiuxian families are usually independent of the sect, and now they have collectively transferred their spiritual veins to the big sect.

In the northeast direction of the Daxuan Dynasty, the war of immortal cultivators fought thousands of miles of scorched earth,

The news brought back by the sect disciples who practiced in the south. In the towns of ordinary people, there are always restaurants that eat "white lamb", oh, that is, the meat of "Shizipo\

,"The government has existed in name only, and some martial arts generals and warlords in the mortal world have begun to do their best. At the same time, in exchange for the magic weapons and medicines provided by the monks, these mortal generals personally skinned people in the prison, smoked people's bones, and accumulated evil spirits. Sacrifice.

Common sense in the world of comprehension: If a monk massacres mortals, he will be punished by heaven.

But if monks get stuck with bugs, they will achieve supremacy by "assisting" the ambitious among mortals.

Then this eternal crime will have a much lighter impact on monks. But in this way, the entire mortal world in the Yunling area is full of treachery.

Outside the towns of mortals, there are always a lot of corpses and ghost fog moving around, or the whole river turns into a blood-red vision!

...Sometimes, when there is an urgent war, human beings will cherish peace and develop without stopping every moment...

During this period of time, the Northland where Fang Juemen was located was quite a paradise.

Within five years of Wei Keng's return, a large amount of aura surged up in the sect, and 30% of the disciples who entered the secret realm trial succeeded in forming alchemy, and suddenly there were seven or eight alchemy elders in the sect, the backbone of the sect. Increased strength. Zhang Zheng and Yunli have already resumed the alchemy period. Wei Keng sent seven or eight gifts of alchemy in succession.

When ordinary people cultivate immortals, they often cultivate interpersonal relationships. The world of mortals is rolling, not to look at it detachedly, but to sort out the trend! In terms of making friends, Wei Keng also made a series of plans according to his own goals.

First of all: the spiritual implements designed by Wei Keng started mass production in the refining hall, and were transferred to those later stages of Qi training in the form of lease mortgage.

These poor qi-training monks who received "small loans" began to explore the Northland on a large scale and obtained a lot of resources when they got the armor and spiritual tools.

Furthermore, Wei Keng's alchemy breakthrough also gave these poor monks more opportunities.

The alchemy techniques in the contemporary world of cultivating immortals are all done quickly! Taking Zhujidan as an example, the material for quick refining is a century-old "zhicao". In this way, the growth of "Zhicao" for cultivating immortals requires the density of spiritual energy. In the world of cultivating immortals, there are few places that meet the standards, and those that meet the standards have long been occupied by sects and cultivating families.

Wei Keng, a human-shaped spiritual material, does not lack such spiritual herbs, but Master Wei, a scumbag, upholds the common people's spirit of "egg fried rice". Start to seriously solve the headache problem of low-level disciples.

After all, it is in line with Wei Keng's way of "expanding possibilities" to reduce the number of killings in the world of cultivating immortals.

According to Wei Keng's calculations, it is most cost-effective for the sect to refine such pills in the foundation building period slowly.

But this requires an "intensive effect", and the upstream supply of the relevant spiritual grass cultivation must be large enough to do so.

Wei Keng used the ten-year-mutated hydrangea as the main ingredient. The probability of this mutation is 1%, and every time the age of the hydrangea is increased by one year, the probability of mutation increases by 1%.

Calculated according to Wei Keng's physics formula, the purple sungrass has mutated, and the energy level frequency contained is the same as the aura frequency band that Zhu Jidan gave Qi training monks a breakthrough.

In terms of the energy level of the mutated hydrangea, it cannot be used as a substitute for the main medicine of the foundation-building period elixir

As for how to increase the energy level? Wei Keng is now calculating with a formula.

Wei Keng finally sought a solution, which was to add a large amount of other auxiliary elixir solutions and accumulate it through spiritual water, so that the final energy level was sufficient.

The whole process takes five years, and the fluctuation of water and fire is operated every day. This cycle can make the physical quantity contained in Ziyangcao be in the same frequency. So no one used this alchemy in the past.

The probability of a mutant hydrangea is too small. According to statistics, more than 300 hydrangeas are needed for one furnace, so in terms of labor hours and total amount of spiritual materials, it is not much smaller than quick refining medicine. At the same time, the pill furnace has been occupied for a long time. It's also a huge cost! This requires gathering enough alchemy furnaces and enough alchemy boys in the early stages of Qi training.

But purple sungrass can grow on low-level spiritual veins, and the working hours can be done by low-level disciples.

For Wei Keng to develop such an alchemy activity, only the big sect can have the basic conditions.

And Wei Keng's popularity in the sect is very good, and he has such a resource.

In this way, the alchemy furnace was deployed on a "Cultivating Alchemy Pavilion" outside Wei Keng's expanded Lingyuan, and thousands of Qi training disciples and twenty foundation-building monks began to take care of these alchemy furnaces in groups.

These pill furnaces consumed five years of ground fire, and heat rose in the area.

Due to the long-term consumption of ground fire, many traditional alchemists complained, so in the fifth year, everyone stared at this scene.

Following the presence of Wei Keng and Elder Danfeng in person, they lit up the six hundred pill furnaces on the furnace,

This "taking pill" step is a high-tech job, which directly determines how many pills can be cut from a cloud of spiritual energy, and even determines the grade of pills. Operated by Wei Keng himself.

With the opening of the copper lids one by one, streamers of light rose from the pill furnace and entered the jade vases that had been prepared. Among them, eight colors were produced in one furnace on average, and the foundation building pill appeared light blue, like a kingfisher. As beautiful as it is, a wisp of pale gold will appear every ten furnaces, this is the middle-grade foundation building pill.

When the four hundred and thirtieth furnace was turned on, a strange fragrance came out, and a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill appeared.

This scene opened the eyes of all the monks waiting to get the elixir in the mountains of Fang Juemen.

This kind of large-scale process and costly alchemy is much more efficient than alchemy in small workshops, but this technology is not something casual practitioners can solve casually.

Whether it was "more than 3,000 foundation-building pills released at the same time" or "a top-grade foundation-building pill that had never been heard before", this gave Fang Juemen a bit of the bustling demeanor of the ancient world of cultivating immortals.

...The ancient world of cultivating immortals! That was the prosperous era that all cultivators dreamed of...

At that time, there was plenty of aura, and a large number of Taoist friends realized the Tao at the same time, but at the current level of foundation building, 90% of the monks with "three spiritual roots and four spiritual roots" could be stuck and advance.

The release of such a large-scale pill now undoubtedly reassures the low-level monks in the sect!

And that's just a five-year amount. In the past five years, those small families who have cooperated in planting "Ziyangcao" have not yet had the confidence to fully invest.

After the current substantial overflow, Fang Juemen will definitely send this wave of new foundation-building monks to station in various small family sects to protect the spiritual fields of these low-level spiritual grasses.

But even if there are too many Foundation Establishment Pills, it is impossible to sell them casually in the square market.

After exchanging cheerful business with Wei Keng, the elders of the Zongmen opened their mouths "Zongmen Daxing" and closed their mouths "My sect"

After Wei Keng returned to Lingyuan, Elder Danfeng's smile subsided, and he announced sternly and selflessly that the distribution of the pills would be distributed by the elders of each peak after discussion. ——Let the disciples who had waited originally, and rewarded a wave of disciples after Dan succeeded, be disappointed for a while.

Especially the middle grade, the top grade Foundation Establishment Pill, which was handed over to the sect's Treasure Pavilion. This aroused many disciples' evil fire, and in the next two years, many disciples took risks and tried to coerce the disciples of Zhenbao Pavilion to steal treasures.

Fang Juemen's current contribution points have become especially important among the three northern sects!

Spiritual pills for realm breakthroughs and spiritual tools for adventure, these two types can definitely be regarded as "bulk commodities" in the world of cultivating immortals.

The qi-training disciples of Boiling Yangmen and Shanghengjianzong would also consider trading Lingcao with Fang Jue's disciples in exchange for some contribution points for later use. (Economics, Currency Wars)

After 500 years of ebb and flow, Fang Juemen's strength will usher in a blowout.

Because in just two hundred years, the tide of foundation building today will turn into the tide of alchemy at that time, and when the number of alchemy monks increases and there are more channels for mutual communication, there will inevitably be a breakthrough in infant formation.

...In the realm of comprehension, there is a record in the Dao of Heaven whether doing things is worthwhile...

After taking the pill for the first round, Wei Keng looked at the starry sky, and when he got the pill, Wei Keng felt a strange spiritual force entering his body.

And this spiritual power made miraculous changes in both his spiritual consciousness and mana. Wei Keng didn't know what this spiritual power was? It wasn't until a long time later that I realized that this was a "merit".

System: Now the material development of the universe is being guided by consciousness, and whatever accelerates the process of guiding consciousness will be rewarded as the "cause".

Wei Keng: Say something I can understand.

System: The process of monk foundation building, alchemy formation, and baby formation is the process of consciousness pushing the universe towards the finalization of the quantum age on a macro scale. You have promoted this process, and the existence that develops during this process will give you a "response". This response is on you, let us call it the power of merit. The disturbance of the power of merit is very weak, but it has special effects

However, Wei Keng waved his hand and sighed: "Don't talk about the law of heaven, the law of heaven is too ruthless, I just sigh "life is not easy" now."

Fang Juemen's "slow practice" seems very inconspicuous,

After all, many high-level monks are already very detached. They no longer regard the struggles of low-level monks as related to themselves, and even indifferently watch low-level monks slaughter for resources.

But just as the "massacre of mortals" will be condemned by God, if "the road to the future for low-level monks is slightly wider", so that future monks will kill less. Then you will get positive feedback. This is a very rare "merit".

From an objective point of view, whether it is a mortal or a monk, they are all carriers of "consciousness".

Cultivating immortals is the way to longevity for monks, but for Dao, it is "consciousness" that promotes the formation of a "longer" material universe in this universe.

In a soupy universe, particles with more stable lifetimes (such as single protons of hydrogen nuclei) are needed as the basic matter to fill the next generation of the universe.
