Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 677 Strengthening the soul and refining the soul, deducing the techniques

Zhongyu, Jiangzhou.

Twenty-five years later, in the Xunyang City residence and the practice room.

A bare-chested, burly monk sat cross-legged and was practicing his martial arts.

It seemed that he had reached a critical point in his cultivation, and large beads of sweat continued to emerge from his skin, gathering into a stream of water and flowing downwards.

His brows wrinkled slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched from time to time.

It can be felt that this person is suffering a lot of pain, but he is trying to endure the pain and his face is generally calm.

This person is Liu Yu!

At this time, the operation of the "Shen Shen Miao Dharma" has reached a critical point, and an almost unbearable pain continues to flow from the soul like a tide.

The physical pain is nothing compared to this.

In the Niwan Palace, after swallowing the "Soul-Condensing Pill" and running the "Magic Method of Preserving God", Liu Yu's soul "big red ball of light" fluctuated continuously.

It looks calm on the surface, but at an extremely subtle level, it slightly expands outwards and then retracts.

Every time it expands, there will be pain like burning fire!

Wisps of black light continue to rise from the dantian and circulate in the red soul.

It moves along with the exercise and is gradually digested by the big red light ball.

He had been prepared for a long time. When the severe pain hit, Liu Yu suppressed it with a rock-solid will and struggled to operate the technique.

Every time the soul expands and contracts, it will shrink slightly.

As several wisps of black light were digested, a wisp of black smoke rose from the soul under the influence of the "Magic Method of Preserving the Soul" and the "Soul-Condensing Pill".

It was expelled from the big red ball of light and finally disappeared out of thin air.

Every time the Yuan Shen expands and shrinks, and the circulating black light is digested, a more or less black smoke will be discharged by the Yuan Shen.

From the black smoke, you can feel all kinds of negative emotions, as well as some ridiculous and unrealistic thoughts.

This aura seems to contain some of the characteristics of the Yuanshen, but it is an impurity of the Yuanshen.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but every time the technique goes through a great cycle, every time the soul goes through a process of expansion and contraction, the body size will shrink insignificantly, but the brightness will increase slightly.

Compared with the "darkness" before the operation method, every time a wisp of black smoke is expelled, the big red light ball will become a little brighter.

If it is said that taking "spirit-nourishing pills" will make the soul continue to grow, it is a "soul-strengthening".

Then taking the "Soul Condensing Pill" is to remove the impurities in the soul and improve the quality of the soul, which is "soul refining".

Strengthening the soul first and then refining the soul can make the foundation of the soul more solid, which is greatly beneficial to future growth.

Strengthening the soul and refining the soul are indispensable. If the two cannot go hand in hand, it will be difficult to go further on the path of immortality.

In layman's terms, "quantity" and "quality" coexist.

When the realm is still low and the soul has not yet grown to a certain level, you can first strengthen the soul by "strengthening the soul".

But when the soul has grown to a certain level and is powerful enough, if it is not condensed enough, every improvement will be extremely difficult.

At this time, it is necessary to "refining the soul" to make the soul more condensed.

It is not advisable to strengthen the soul, just like a building made of a pile of inferior materials, it is difficult to exceed a certain height.

Even if they are forcibly piled up, they will melt like ice and snow when faced with a test one day in the future.

Therefore, when the "building" of Yuanshen reaches a certain level, it is necessary to stop and check for hidden dangers.

Replace some inferior materials so that you can build higher and go further.

The two steps of strengthening the soul and refining the soul almost cover most of the ways for a creature to improve its soul. Almost most of the methods revolve around these two points.

Of course, the improvement of the soul is far more than that simple, and other aspects need to be paid attention to.

Such as balance and so on.

Big beads of sweat kept rolling down, and unbearable pain hit me. Every minute was a torment.

I don't know how long it took, but Liu Yu's face gradually returned to calm.

"Huh~"

After finishing the practice of "The Mystical Technique of Preserving God", he slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a heavy breath.

"In twenty-five years, Yuan Shen has improved from one hundred and twenty miles at the beginning to one hundred and thirty-five miles now!"

"The effect of the Soul Condensing Pill is even better than imagined."

"Although the size of the soul has not increased, on the contrary, it has shrunk by a circle, but the real enhancement can be clearly felt."

"The growth of spiritual consciousness is a manifestation of a certain aspect."

"Sure enough, strengthening the soul and refining the soul at the same time is the most correct path."

Opening his eyes, he noticed that his soul was brighter again, and a hint of joy flashed in Liu Yu's eyes.

"The soul-condensing pill is only a middle-grade third-level pill, but it has such an effect."

"I wonder what kind of miraculous effects the "Soul Cleansing Pill" deduced by "Baicao True Cultivation" back then would have?"

"According to the records in the Baicao Dan Book, the Soul Purifying Pill is as high as the third level of the best!"

"It's just a pity that after so many years, the deduction of this elixir recipe is still a few steps away from being completed."

"I have been busy practicing these years and have never had time to deduce the elixir recipe."

Thinking of the Baicao Dan book he obtained that year and the deduced "Soul Cleansing Pill", a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.

Time flies, twenty-five years have passed.

In these years, with a large amount of spirit stone elixirs being consumed, Liu Yu's cultivation level has also improved by leaps and bounds, and has reached the peak of the middle stage of the golden elixir.

There is only one step away from the late stage of Jindan.

Perhaps it was because the body refining had already reached the late stage of the third level, or perhaps because his qualifications for Alchemy Level 9 had been improved, he did not feel the existence of a "bottleneck".

Maybe if you continue for a while, you will be able to make a breakthrough naturally.

“We reached our mid-term peak a year ago and it’s time to break through.”

Thinking like this, Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness looked inside the physical body.

In the dantian, a green elixir the size of a goose egg slowly rotates.

Over the years, it has grown bigger again, with auras constantly emerging on the surface, and it looks very "healthy".

Below the blue golden elixir, there is a wide "lake". The lake water is dark blue in color and is formed by the gathering of countless mana.

If you look closely, you will see that each "water stream" is made up of countless crystals that are even smaller than dust.

Solid mana!

The golden elixir is very healthy, the ebb and flow of the Mana Lake are extremely active, and everything is developing in a good direction.

"It has been about a year since I reached the peak of the golden elixir in the middle stage."

"After a year of accumulation, it's almost time for promotion."

"However, my realm has already been slightly adjusted based on the observations in the "supreme" state."

"It is quite different from the original version of "Qingyang Kung" and must not be completely confused."

"Forced cultivation will leave quite a few flaws."

"So before that, you still have to go into the Immortal Mansion and deduce the ninth level technique that suits you."

Liu Yu flashed this idea.

Twenty-five years have passed, and he has already thoroughly understood the ninth level of Qingyang Kung, but whether it is the original or the deduced version, he feels dissatisfied when he thinks about it carefully.

Over the years, Liu Yu has never given up on acquiring knowledge.

Through the Buyi League and other channels, or by spending spiritual stones to purchase, I also came into contact with the knowledge of immortality cultivation in the Central Region.

In terms of the theory of cultivating immortals, Zhongyu is indeed far beyond Tiannan and is far more "advanced" than Tiannan.

This gap in knowledge of cultivating immortals will be solidly reflected in strength.

For example, between two ordinary monks, the Central Domain monk is about 30% stronger than the Tiannan monk.

Not to mention the spiritual ships, etc., the refining skills of magic weapons and magic weapons are also much better.

"First deduce the technique, and then start making breakthroughs."

With all kinds of thoughts flashing around, Liu Yu quickly made a decision, and his mind touched the green light of Niwan Palace.

The next moment, a familiar suction force came, and his consciousness fell into a trance.

…

Everything went dark before his eyes, and the world was spinning.

When Liu Yu regained consciousness again, he was already in the cyan barrier and turned into a bright red ball of light.

Outside the barrier is an endless void where coldness and darkness coexist.

"This feeling is very strange."

"Obviously the size has shrunk, but the real sense of power has actually increased a lot."

Liu Yu glanced at himself with his spiritual consciousness and thought secretly in his heart.

In the world of Immortal Mansion, Yuan Shen can directly interfere with matter, and he can truly feel the strengthening of Yuan Shen.

Each ray of divine consciousness is more powerful, and there is more divine consciousness that can be used.

"Strengthening the soul and refining the soul, go hand in hand."

After carefully experiencing the changes in his soul, he determined that there were no hidden dangers left. Liu Yu became more determined about the path he had chosen.

Immediately, with a thought in his mind, his figure disappeared from the original place and moved to the dark void outside the barrier.

After a few breaths of silence, Liu Yu carefully recalled what he had learned about Qingyang Kung Fu and the knowledge of cultivating immortals with the attribute of fire.

Immediately, he followed the extremely close connection with the Immortal Mansion and entered that "supreme" state.

The next moment,

Liu Yuling felt that he had been promoted infinitely, reaching an incredible level in an instant!

Everything in front of me became small and felt extremely unreal.

In this spiritual perception, even the space feels fragile, as if it will break at the touch of a touch.

This state is very strange. Liu Yu seems to be standing in a higher dimension and looking down at the lower dimension. There is no secret in anything in the world of Immortal Mansion.

It is as if human beings are in a three-dimensional space. Everything in the two-dimensional space composed of lines and surfaces can be seen clearly when looking down from the three-dimensional life.

In this state, the world is like a picture scroll.

And he is the painter or the creator, who can modify the painting at will and turn it into the shape he wants.

"Perhaps, when in this state, I look at the ordinary world from the perspective of a higher-dimensional life."

"From the perspective of higher-dimensional life, everything in lower dimensions is clearly visible and there are no secrets."

Liu Yu's heart arose with this understanding,

Of course he understood that the feeling of being omnipotent as the Creator was just an illusion.

I am just a little golden elixir monk. Even though I have great authority in the world of Immortal Mansion, I definitely don't have the power of the Creator.

At least, it's far from possible yet.

Emotions are quickly going away, and thinking is moving in the direction of absolute rationality.

If you stay in this state for too long, your personality will be distorted and you will eventually be assimilated into the world of Immortal Mansion.

Stay forever again and become a part of Fairyland!

All kinds of thoughts flashed, but in fact it only lasted a short moment.

"No, you have to be fast!"

Liu Yu was shocked, thinking about the purpose of entering the Immortal Mansion, and quickly began to deduce.

In the "supreme" state of being as if a higher dimension overlooks a lower dimension, thinking speeds up countless times, and everything in the world becomes simpler.

In his first breath, he recalled everything from the first to the ninth level of Qingyang Gong, including the ninth level that he later deduced.

Instantly discern the shortcomings, and make deletions and combinations based on the existing knowledge of cultivating immortals to make up for the loopholes in the skills.

In the second breath, Liu Yu began to comprehend the contents of the tenth level of Qingyang Gong, the early stage of Nascent Soul.

Because the foundation has been laid previously and it has been understood for a long time.

In this "supreme" state, it only took him one breath to fully comprehend the contents of the tenth level without any doubts.

In the third breath, based on the content of the tenth level of Qingyang Gong, Liu Yu combined the original nine levels with the deduced ninth level and began to deduce the most suitable technique for him.

Every moment, thousands of thoughts collide, sparking countless inspirations.

The mysterious knowledge of cultivating immortals flowed through his heart.

Liu Yu didn't notice that at this moment, countless small silver runes were circulating in his soul, which was like a big red ball of light.

Countless runes flowed, like streams of data, constantly being disrupted and reorganized.

If you look carefully, you will find that each rune carries his memory, representing his experience in a certain period of time and the knowledge he has learned.

In this state, Liu Yu's knowledge and experience were actually transformed into runes!

The silver runes were constantly being disrupted and reorganized, changing tens of thousands of times in just one breath, as if representing the collision of thoughts in his mind.

Gradually, as the tiny silver runes stabilized and the frequency of disruptions and reorganizations decreased, Liu Yu gradually had a clue about the new ninth level of Qingyang Gong.

In the fourth breath, following the organized thread and using the proven knowledge of cultivating immortals, he began to deduce the new ninth level with all his strength.

In the red soul, the reorganization speed continued to slow down, and eventually countless small silver runes came together to form a new data flow.

On the fifth breath, Liu Yu exited the "supreme" state.

There was a deep feeling of exhaustion in his soul, as if he had been without sleep for several years.

The huge gap between the "supreme" state and his usual state also made him feel unspeakable loss and weakness.

"Huh~"

I don't know how long it took before Liu Yu came back to her senses.

"The sequelae this time seem to be a little less severe than last time?"

"The biggest change between these times is that my soul has become stronger and more condensed."

"Perhaps a strong soul is indeed the best way to resist the sequelae."

Based on the previous entries, compared with the situation this time, various thoughts flashed through his mind.

"But maybe it's because the entry time is shorter."

"After all, we have made adequate preparations this time and the purpose is very clear."

"It's just based on the known knowledge of cultivating immortals to deduce the new ninth level of Qingyang Gong. There is no need to explore unknown areas."

After thinking for a long time, Liu Yu thought of various possibilities.

Immediately, with a thought in his mind, the big red ball of light disappeared in the world of Immortal Mansion.

Now that the technique has been deduced, the next step is naturally to break through the realm!
