Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 643 Impermanent Heart Flame, personal disciple! (Please vote for me!!)

After receiving the message from his spiritual consciousness, Zhang Tao's reaction was calmer than expected, and a look that was indeed the case flashed through his eyes.

After accepting Guo Poyun's mission eight years ago, Liu Yu proposed that he needed a second-grade spiritual fire as a reward for the mission.

Since it is a secret skill, it will naturally not stay where it is, and there will be a need for further advancement.

We needed second-grade spiritual fire before, but will we need third-grade spiritual fire in the future?

After learning about Liu Yu's identity as the "alchemy master" and seeing that he showed strength far beyond his level, Zhang Tao decided that it would be most appropriate for Zhang Yi to become his disciple.

Therefore, he paid homage to the elders, contacted several members of the same clan, and showed his old face to get this generous apprenticeship gift.

As for Liu Yu's personality, he thought he knew enough about him through eight years of contact and the two major events of "Escorting the Magic Weapon" and "Battle of Lingwu City".

The other party's moral bottom line is indeed more "flexible".

But the most basic promise is to keep it, at least not to be moody, or to harm others without benefiting oneself.

There is no reason to destroy something that is beneficial to everyone, right?

Of course, having profound knowledge in the fire system is indeed a huge plus.

Thinking like this, Zhang Tao did not hesitate when he heard the words, and the storage ring's aura shone slightly.

An ink-colored jade box with a sealing talisman attached appeared in his hand, and then gently floated away on the opposite side.

Maybe this person himself didn't realize that his identity as "Emissary of Tiannan" made him have a good impression of Liu Yu from the beginning.

In recent years, I have paid special attention to it.

"Click"

Liu Yu caught the black jade box, nodded gently towards the other party, lifted the corner of the sealing talisman on the spot, and then slowly opened it.

"Click"

In an instant, a strange spiritual power spread out from the gap in the black jade box, and he, holding the jade box in his hand, was the first to bear the brunt.

This is a third-grade spiritual fire. Except for some unexpected factors, ordinary golden elixirs can already control the realm of golden elixirs if they get such a spiritual fire.

As long as you don't encounter that kind of top golden elixir, you can protect yourself in the third level.

Leaving aside some factors, just talking about the killing effect on living beings, it is already comparable to or even surpasses the top magic weapons!

Therefore, facing the third-level spiritual fire, Liu Yu did not hold back at this moment. He sensed the strange spiritual power and immediately thought about it.

Combining the techniques of "Preserving the Divine" and "Youmeng Heart Sutra", the invisible and immaterial consciousness immediately moved and built a thick "wall of consciousness" in front of the body to protect itself.

The next moment, that strange spiritual power met the thick wall of consciousness.

"Hiss~"

It seemed like there was no time, and there seemed to be a scream in my ears.

But if you look closely, Zhang Tao and Zhang Yi obviously don't have any strange appearance, as if they didn't hear any sound.

"This voice does not exist in reality, it only exists on the spiritual level."

The scream disappeared quickly. Liu Yu noticed that there was no difference between the two of them and judged in her heart.

Seeing that the strange power was successfully blocked by the wall of consciousness, he reached out and continued to touch the ink-colored jade box, intending to open it completely.

"Um?!"

But at this moment, Liu Yu suddenly made a move.

He keenly sensed that after the strange power that had been blocked dissipated, there was still a trace of invisible and intangible power, which was not blocked by the wall of consciousness and spread directly towards him.

This kind of power cannot be observed by the naked eye or spiritual consciousness.

It can only be sensed through spiritual sense, but even with Liu Yu's spiritual sense, it requires a little concentration to sense it.

It's too late to say it, but it's too late to say it.

Unexpectedly, there was this move. In the flash of lightning, that kind of power had already hit Liu Yu.

There was no bleeding from the seven holes in the physical body, there was no tingling pain from the spiritual consciousness, and there was no strangeness in the soul.

He stood there, seemingly unharmed.

It's just that Liu Yu's originally calm inner lake was unconsciously rippled by the power that was not blocked by the wall of consciousness.

Joy, anger, sadness, joy

All kinds of emotions were magnified many times at this moment, especially the "greed" for treasures.

"As the general manager, Zhang Tao must still have many treasures in the storage ring that have not yet been distributed."

"If I can kill it, it will all be mine!"

As his peripheral vision glanced at Zhang Tao, an impulse emerged in Liu Yu's heart, and that "bold" idea emerged again.

There was a desire to kill Zhang Tao at all costs, seize the treasure, and then escape from Lingwu City.

"Gather and concentrate, hold the essence and keep it together"

But that kind of power was too weak and its influence was extremely limited. Liu Yumo recited the "Zuo Wang Heart Sutra" and easily suppressed it with his rock-solid willpower.

Although all kinds of emotions were still amplified a lot, he was no longer affected.

There are still some waves in the lake in my heart, but my eyes are clear!

"Click"

Liu Yu gently opened the black jade box and revealed the contents inside.

This is a pure white lotus with not even a trace of impurities on the surface. If the fireworks hadn't jumped slightly from time to time, it would be almost impossible to tell that it was a flame.

As soon as it was exposed to the air, the pure white lotus-like spiritual fire continued to spread around, giving off that strange power.

From it, Liu Yu saw various emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, and sensed a power that could distort the mind.

"It must have been this kind of power that amplified the emotions in my heart."

"This kind of power can influence and amplify the inner emotions of living beings. Let's call it the "power of desire"."

The thought crossed his mind.

However, this kind of spiritual fire was not recorded in the classics that he had seen before, so Liu Yu did not recognize it at the first time.

At this moment, an old and deep voice sounded in his ears.

"Third grade spiritual fire, impermanent heart flames."

"The normal power of this kind of spiritual fire against the enemy is slightly weaker than that of the same grade spiritual fire, but it is far more powerful than the second grade spiritual fire."

"Its characteristics must have been appreciated by fellow Taoists from the ancient city just now,"

"That's right, it can amplify the inner emotions of creatures, and even make them become irrational beasts under the burning and distortion of the "fire of desire"!"

"If used properly, it can easily turn the tide of the battle, and the effect will be far greater than one or two powerful magic weapons."

Looking at the pure white spiritual fire in the dark jade box, Zhang Tao's eyes flashed with pain and he slowly introduced.

In exchange for this "Impermanent Heart Flame" from the elder, he paid a huge price.

Over the years, almost half of the family merit accumulated with great difficulty has been consumed.

But for the safety of his direct descendant Zhang Yi, he gritted his teeth and chose to exchange.

After all, he was already old and could not go any further. It would be useless no matter how much resources he had, they would still have to be left to his descendants.

While speaking, Zhang Tao shot out magic formulas one after another, which landed around the "Impermanent Heart Flame".

Forming a "wall" full of seals to isolate the "power of desire" that can affect emotions.

He and Liu Yu were advanced in cultivation and strong-willed, and could ignore this influence, but Zhang Yi, who was only in the middle stage of Qi refining, was far from able to do so.

"Impermanent Heart Disease?"

"Moody."

"good."

Looking at the lotus-like appearance and the pure white spiritual fire that jumped from time to time, Liu Yu nodded slightly and was very satisfied.

He could still remember the golden flames of the Third Princess Fire Phoenix that could directly attack the soul more than ten years ago.

Since then, I have always had the idea of ​​​​obtaining such a spiritual fire and letting it be swallowed by the Qingyang Demonic Fire. However, due to the environment, I have not been able to do so.

Now that I have "Impermanent Heart Flame", I finally get what I want.

Although the characteristics are somewhat different, they can affect emotions, and naturally can also indirectly affect the soul.

Liu Yu is well aware of the huge difference between Zhongyu and Tiannan.

This land has a longer history, and the secret arts and magical powers it has developed must be more and more sophisticated.

If your methods are not updated and upgraded in time, you will encounter a strong enemy sooner or later, and you may become passive or even defeated.

The two current spiritual attack methods, "Shocking Divine Thorn" and "Dream of Dreams", although they cover both single attack and group attack, to a certain extent, they are both relatively "traditional" attack methods.

Due to the prosperity of the world of cultivating immortals, Zhongyu Jindan is well-informed and has more knowledge about Yuan Shen and spiritual consciousness.

The two current spiritual consciousness and secret techniques are probably no longer considered "weird" and cannot play a surprising role in winning.

Even if you don't know the secret skills of spiritual consciousness, you may still have one or two pieces of the Central Realm Golden Pill, which can resist the attacks of spiritual consciousness and defend yourself.

Especially for the true successors of big forces, there is a high probability of having both.

If the expected blow is easily blocked by the opponent, then we will be in a dilemma.

As for the "power of desire" that can ignore even the wall of spiritual consciousness, I believe that ordinary spiritual defense methods can also penetrate it, which is "weird" enough.

When the "Shocking Thorn" and "Dream of the Spring and Autumn" fail, as well as in ordinary fighting, it must have a good effect.

Thinking this way, Liu Yu became more and more satisfied with "Impermanent Heart Flame" as he watched it. He even had the urge to stay in Lingwu City for a few more days and let Qingyang Demon Fire advance to the third level first.

However, this idea only flashed through his mind, and was eventually suppressed by reason.

"Click"

Liu Yu closed the ink jade box and reattached the sealing talisman before putting it into the storage ring.

"Young Master Ling has a fire-based heavenly spirit root, which is just in line with what Gu learned."

"What's even more rare is that my heart is firm towards the Tao, which is exactly what I want."

"Gu accepted the offer of apprenticeship."

Putting away the "Impermanent Heart Flame", he nodded gently to Zhang Tao and formally agreed to the matter.

Although accepting a disciple, especially a direct disciple with a close relationship, would cause many inconveniences on weekdays.

But in the face of three third-level elixir recipes and the third-level "Impermanent Heart Flame", all this is not impossible to change.

Liu Yu has never been a stubborn person. As long as the interests are large enough and the matter will not have a bad impact on him, everything can be discussed.

Tianlinggen qualifications do have a great advantage in the first three realms, but it will still take some time to grow, at least a few decades.

And at that time, he may have reached the peak of the golden elixir. If it goes more smoothly, it is not impossible that he will break the elixir and become a baby.

Isn’t it easy to find a “good disciple”?

As long as this good disciple doesn't try to pry into his secrets, Liu Yu doesn't mind being his master again. It's not the first time anyway.

After saying that, he grasped with five fingers, aimed at the three jade slips on the sand table, took them out of the air, and put them into the storage ring without even looking at them.

"Impermanent Heart Flame" and "Soul Condensing Pill Prescription", each one is enough to be equivalent to the value of these three pill prescriptions, and the actual value is far more.

There is nothing wrong with the first two items. As for the treasure with the lowest value, it is naturally impossible for the other party to cheat because of a small mistake.

"I am very pleased that my Taoist fellow from the ancient city can agree."

"As a junior, I'll leave it to my fellow Taoist!"

Finally hearing what he wanted to hear, Zhang Tao felt a big stone fall in his heart. He breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hands and said seriously.

"Since Mr. Gu has accepted the gift of apprenticeship, he will teach this son well and will live up to Taoist friend Zhang Tao's trust."

"Fellow Taoist, don't worry."

Liu Yu returned the gift and said solemnly.

He has always been more down-to-earth. Since he has taken advantage of others, he will naturally handle their affairs well.

Unless you encounter an unexpected situation, such as being unable to protect yourself, etc.

The two exchanged a few polite words, then turned around at the same time and looked at the young man Zhang Yi who was standing with his hands hanging.

The man looked young and mature. He kept his ears raised and his head slightly lowered, listening to the conversation.

But seeing the eyes of his great ancestor and future master looking over him, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and subconsciously lowered his head.

Seeing this, Liu Yu and Zhang Tao looked at each other and smiled, then their smiles stopped and their expressions gradually became serious.

The demon clan's counterattack may come at any time. Time is urgent and cannot be delayed for too long.

After arranging Zhang Yi's destination, Zhang Tao did not want Liu Yu to stay in Lingwu City for too long.

Next, the apprenticeship ceremony was simplified. Under the witness of Zhang Tao, Zhang Yi completed the apprenticeship ceremony step by step.

…

"Disciple Zhang Yi, pay homage to Master!"

A voice full of youthful vigor, but with a hint of childishness, sounded in the hall.

"Dong dong dong"

The previous steps of apprenticeship were completed quickly. Zhang Yi tidied his clothes meticulously, and as soon as he flicked his sleeves, he knelt down to Liu Yu.

With a slow but firm gesture, he kowtowed three times in a row.

There is a saying: the king of heaven and earth is the master.

For his direct disciples, the master has the responsibility of preaching, teaching, and solving doubts. What's more, he will also pass on some unique knowledge he has learned about the way to immortality.

When direct disciples encounter bottlenecks in their cultivation, they will usually help break through from many aspects.

For example, imparting relevant breakthrough experience, such as preparing appropriate "Breaking Elixir".

For example, choosing a suitable location, arranging for disciples to go out to experience breakthroughs, and arranging guardians to protect safety secretly, etc.

In many cases, Master himself is the "protector".

If the road to immortality is dark, then the master is the guiding light for his direct disciples, guiding them in the direction to avoid going astray.

The weight of this kindness, this close relationship, even exceeds the connection between blood!

In the eyes of many monks, it is extremely important, even surpassing the relationship between father and son.

Because of this, even in the eyes of demonic monks, it must be a treasonous act for a direct disciple to betray his master or kill his master.

The entire world of immortal cultivation rejects such ungrateful monks!

"Master, please drink tea."

After completing the previous steps, Zhang Yi stood up and took the apprenticeship tea prepared by Zhang Tao. He walked to Liu Yu and bowed down to hand it over respectfully.

There is a soundproof barrier arranged outside, and the sound from the entire Lingwu City cannot be transmitted in for the time being.

The entire apprenticeship process was carried out in a solemn atmosphere.

"Well, children can be taught."

Liu Yu was not embarrassed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it aside.

Looking at the young man who was standing respectfully with his hands lowered, but already somewhat extraordinary, he took a few breaths in silence to organize his words, and then began his first lecture:

"After performing the apprenticeship ceremony and handing over the apprenticeship tea, you will be included in my family."

"From today on, you are my personal disciple."

"I don't have that many rules here, but there are a few that must not be violated."

"Listen carefully and remember it in your heart. If you violate it, I will severely punish you."

"First, you must not deceive your master and destroy your ancestors, and you must not kill your fellow sects."

"Second, without permission, you are not allowed to teach the knowledge of immortality obtained from me privately."

"third."

Liu Yu's face looked solemn at this time, somewhat like a famous teacher of a generation, and there was an inexplicable majesty in his voice.

Tell them word for word the rules for everyone.

Zhang Yi lowered his head and listened, recording every sentence and word carefully in his heart.

However, Liu Yu didn't have many rules. Although he didn't speak very fast, he still finished speaking quickly.

The apprenticeship ceremony is now complete!

…

"Fellow Taoist from the ancient city, after leaving the Six Continents of Annan, are you planning to go to the "Shenjing", the imperial capital of Daqian?"

After the ceremony was completed, Zhang Tao took a few more breaths before he asked.

In his opinion, as the "Tiannan Envoy", Liu Yu's first stop must be Daqian Shenjing if he wants to convey the message Tiannan handed over to the Immortal Dynasty in the Central Region.

Not only that, as the capital of Daqian, Shenjing can be called the "No. 1 Immortal City in the Central Region" today.

Almost all the spiritual objects and various rare resources in the entire Central Territory flow to or pass through Shenjing.

Almost everything needed for cultivation can be found in Shenjing.

Therefore, no matter which angle you look at, whether you want to complete the sect's mission, or simply want to exchange resources and experience the prosperity of the Central Territory, the probability of choosing Shenjing as your first stop is very high.

"Zhang Tao knows things like a god~!"

"Yes, after leaving Annan Six Continents, Gu really plans to visit the "Shenjing" first."

This is not difficult to guess, Liu Yu admitted frankly.

He really wanted to go to Shenjing to see the prosperity of the Central Region and the current appearance of the Daqian Immortal Dynasty, and see if he could complete the sect's mission by the way.

Finally, based on the information collected, choose a suitable place to practice.

After all, with the existence of the "Ten Thousand Demons Array", Tiannan will definitely not be able to go back in a short time.

And after going through hardships and arriving in the more prosperous Central Territory, Liu Yu has no thoughts of going back for the time being.

"Fellow Daoist from the ancient city is new here and is not familiar with the Central Territory yet."

"If Lingwu City is already in hand, the family is about to send a team to Shenjing to meet Emperor Qian to formally inform the matter and announce the news to the entire Central Region."

"If fellow Taoists from the ancient city are interested, you can set off with the Zhang family's team."

"In this way, it is equivalent to having a tour guide, which can save a lot of time."

Zhang Tao touched his beard and said with a smile.

After the apprenticeship was completed, this person's attitude was obviously more cordial, and the relationship between the two became much closer.

"In this case, being respectful is not as good as obeying orders. Then we will trouble fellow Taoist Zhang Tao!"

After thinking for a moment or two, Liu Yu replied with a smile.

The Zhang family is a force that transforms gods into gods. If you follow the Zhang family's team, there will be a lot of conveniences along the way.

And with Zhang Yi's relationship, it's impossible for the other party to trick him.

"Hahaha."

"please!"

Zhang Tao smiled heartily, waved his hand to remove the soundproof barrier, and made a gesture of invitation.

"Let's go."

Liu Yu nodded slightly, passed by Zhang Yi, his newly acquired disciple, gently stroked his head, and led him towards the door.

Thanks to Shiqu Gucun for the 3267 points reward support!
