Seeking Immortality

Outside the thatched house, the sun was setting in the west, the sunlight was dim, and the dark yellow sunlight spread all over the earth, making it desolate.

More than half a year has passed since Xu Qingfan was handed over and released from the customs, so the top of Jiuhua Mountain has now become a world of white snow, beautiful scenery and howling cold wind.

Looking at the familiar world in front of him, Xu Qingfan was slightly stunned and asked Liu Huaxiang beside him: "Master Liu, where are Ting'er and Xiaobi? Why don't you see them?"

Liu Huaxiang sighed and said, "Go down the mountain to find Ma Hualing."

Xu Qingfan was startled and asked: "Uncle Ma from Tianyangtang? What do Ting'er and Xiaobi want from them?"

Ma Hualing is the elder who is most proficient in healing in Jiuhua Mountain, and "Tianyangtang" is also the place where Jiuhuamen people use to heal their injuries, so they heard that Ting'er and Xiaobi went to find Ma Hualing of "Tianyangtang" Only then did he become so worried.

Liu Huaxiang showed a trace of shame on his face and explained: "I underestimated the power of using this secret technique. You were conserving the pain of reshaping your body at the time, so you didn't feel it. In fact, while you were reshaping your body, The entire Jiuhua Mountain Peak is filled with evil energy and ghost cries are everywhere. If it were not for the breath gathering formation that was previously arranged here, I am afraid that the entire Jiuhua Mountain would have been disturbed by the cries and evil energy of this weather station. But it is precisely because of this that the evil energy and ghost cries are everywhere. Due to the obstruction of the breath gathering formation, the sound could only be densely distributed on the top of this small Jiuhua Mountain. I had never thought that it would be so powerful, so it was relatively simple to place protective formations around Ting'er and Xiaobi. , as a result, the Yaqi ghost cry actually broke through the two defensive formations, causing harm to Ting'er and Xiaobi. Fortunately, when the evil spirit and ghost cry broke through the defense formation, the secret method was already approaching and ending, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. ”

Hearing Liu Huaxiang's narration, Xu Qingfan was startled and asked hurriedly: "So, is something wrong with Ting'er? With her physique transformed by the magic bead, she is the most immune to being invaded by this kind of thing."

Poor Xiaobi was directly ignored by Xu Qingfan at this time. "

Seeing the worried look on Xu Qingfan's face, Liu Huaxiang said with relief: "Qingxin, you underestimate Ting'er too much. Do you think Ting'er is just the little girl who needs your care? You must know that she is already in the middle stage of fasting. She has become an immortal, and the power of her demonic fire is far beyond your imagination. All the evil spirits and evil thoughts that invaded her were completely burned by her black demonic fire. Xiaobi, whose strength is almost as strong as that of a monk in the pill-forming stage, was frightened by the evil spirit and ghostly cries. She really doesn't know whether it is a high-level monster or an ordinary family pet. "

After a pause, Liu Huaxiang continued: "Because I have to take care of you during this period, and Ma Hualing is more proficient in this aspect, so I entrusted Ma Huaguang to take care of them, and according to Junior Brother Ma's judgment, there is nothing serious about them. It's just that Evil spirits are always hidden, so today I asked them to go to Junior Brother Ma's place to check again. After hearing Liu Huaxiang's words, Xu Qingfan nodded with peace of mind, but he still decided to wait for Ting'er to return to the mountain in person. Check whether Ting'er is safe, although he himself knows that he is far inferior to Ma Hualing of "Tianyangtang" in this regard.

But Liu Huaxiang had a thoughtful look in his eyes at this time, because he suddenly thought that since the power caused by the use of this secret method was so great, Zhang Xusheng might have used this secret method more than once eight hundred years ago, so then Why hasn't he noticed it?

"Could it be that Zhang Xusheng left more than these things in Jiuhua Mountain? Could it be that he still had some things left in Jiuhua Mountain that I didn't notice? At least I don't have any clues about where he was when he used this secret technique."

Liu Huaxiang thought secretly.

With such different thoughts, Liu Huaxiang led Xu Qingfan to a huge rock at the top of Jiuhua Mountain.

This huge stone was faintly glowing with gold, and it was even more eye-catching under the golden afterglow of the setting sun. It was about more than ten feet and weighed several thousand kilograms. Xu Qingfan knew that this huge stone was the hardest stone in Jiuhua Mountain, the "Jin Yao Stone". , some monks even use it to refine magic weapons, needless to say it is sturdy.

When the mountain changed, this "golden shining stone" remained at the top of Jiuhua Mountain for some reason, because the scenery at the top of the mountain was so pleasant. So neither Liu Huaxiang nor Xu Qingfan touched it.

"Use 30% of the mutant withered energy in your body to attack this golden stone." Liu Huaxiang pointed at the huge "golden stone" and ordered Xu Qingfan.

Xu Qingfan nodded silently and said nothing more. He immediately mobilized 30% of the mutated withered energy in his body, condensed it into a ball, and attacked the "Golden Glory Stone".

But this mutated withered energy seems to be unable to be condensed. Xu Qingfan has clearly condensed it into a spherical shape in his body, but as soon as it leaves Xu Qingfan's body, it immediately disperses and turns into a wild black hurricane, violently moving towards the "Jin Yao Stone". Rush away.

For a moment, flying sand and rocks and dust covered the eyes of Xu Qingfan and Liu Huaxiang, making it impossible for them to see clearly the power of this mutated withered energy in a short period of time.

After a long time, the dust settled, and the scene in front of them finally fell into the eyes of Xu Qingfan and Liu Huaxiang, but the power generated by the mutated withered energy made them stunned.

I saw that the "Jin Yao Stone" originally used for the trial had turned into countless powders and floated in the air after just a slight contact with the mutated withered air.

What's even more terrifying is that not only did the "Jin Yao Stone" turn into powder under the power of the mutated withered air, even the ground three feet away from the "Jin Yao Stone" was flattened by more than three feet, all corroded by the mutated withered air. .

Xu Qingfan asked himself, if he wanted to use "Kurong Jue" to cause such powerful damage, he would need 70% of his power to turn into thousands of "Explosive Flame Flowers". If he used Phoenix Spiritual Energy, he would also have to use Only 50% of the strength can be used to cast "Flaming Phoenix".

And when using this mutated withered energy, it only took three-thirds of his strength to achieve such power. Moreover, Xu Qingfan was not familiar with this mutated withered air, and he didn't even have a special method to maximize its power.

Otherwise, if Xu Qingfan creates a Tao method that can maximize its power, and then uses it very hard, how powerful will it be?

Xu Qingfan is simply unimaginable.

However, the power of this mutated spiritual energy is great. After all, it has many characteristics that are unique to death energy, and as everyone knows, until now, no cultivator can master death energy.

But the key point is that this mutated withered air will not only corrode the enemy, but also corrode himself. Especially, Xu Qingfan discovered when he used this mutated withered air just now, when he used the mutated withered air to attack. He will not be able to restrain the corrosion of his body by the mutated withered energy, and the damage caused to his body will be far greater than usual. Therefore, although this mutated withered energy is extremely powerful, it is a Taoist method that hurts others by seven points and hurts him by three points. .

Moreover, this mutated withered energy also has other shortcomings. First, it cannot be condensed to attack the enemy as long as it leaves the body. Although it is extremely powerful in group attacks, it cannot cause much damage when encountering opponents with extremely strong defenses. Second, Xu Qingfan found that the attack range of this mutated withered energy was too short. He had only attacked a distance of about ten feet with all his strength. If he had used all his strength, Xu Qing would have only been able to attack a distance of about fifteen feet. This is somewhat insufficient for cultivators who often fight at a distance of hundreds of miles.

But these shortcomings don't seem so important in the face of the abnormal power of mutated dryness.

Liu Huaxiang seemed to be stunned by the power of the mutated withered energy. After a long time, he confirmed to Xu Qingfan: "You did use only three points of the mutated withered energy to attack?"

Xu Qingfan nodded and said affirmatively: "Three points, one point is not too much. One point is not too much."

After Liu Huaxiang pondered for a while, he said: "I didn't expect that the power of dry air is so great, but this mutated dry air is also a double-edged sword. The more powerful it is, the greater the damage it will cause to you. It seems that its It’s so powerful that the harm it will cause you in the future is probably beyond your imagination.”

After a pause, Liu Huaxiang continued: "And judging from the corrosive properties of this mutated withered air. It is more powerful to the human body and spiritual energy. If you can completely master this mutated withered air, you may be able to defeat powerful enemies with it in the future." Maybe you are a first-level immortal.

Xu Qingfan smiled bitterly and said, "But the key to the problem is that I still haven't been able to find a way to completely master this mutated withered energy."

Liu Huaxiang nodded and said: "I know this, so in the next few days we have to figure out how to use this mutated withered energy. As long as we think about it more, we will always find a way. You don't have to worry about this, it's just this After all, the mutated withered energy is only in your body, and you have witnessed its formation with your own eyes, so you are the only one in the world who knows it best, so I can only give you some opinions on how to use it, and ultimately it depends on you."

Xu Qingfan nodded silently. Seeing Liu Hua's firm and calm look, Xu Qingfan's original panic about the mutated withered energy quickly dissipated a lot.

Liu Huaxiang added: "Also, you should not practice it before you have a thorough understanding of this mutated withered energy, in case it will cause additional damage to you, and don't even use it lightly. Your current task is to try to do it within half a year. Then when the Jiuji Cave is opened next and last time, go in with Jin Qinghan, Feng Qingtian and the others to practice. Jiuji Cave consumes a lot of spiritual stones to maintain, so I rarely use it. You have to take advantage of it. This is a rare opportunity to add more cultivation. ”

Xu Qingfan said in astonishment: "Entering Jiuji Cave to practice?

After seeing Liu Huaxiang nodding in confirmation, Xu Qingfan said silently: "But the boss thought that my qualifications were low, so he didn't want me to go."

Seeing Xu Qingfan's sad look, Liu Huaxiang laughed and said, "The reason why you didn't enter Jiuji Cave was because I asked Zhang Hualing. Now that the matter on my side is over for the time being, I can let you go for a while. ”

Seeing Xu Qingfan's stunned expression, Liu Huaxiang added: "Not only that, Zhang Hualing also promised that as long as you can come out of the Jiuji Cave safely, he will find one of the remaining elders who has taken the Tianling Pill." The Supreme Master will give you the initiation and then grant you the title of Elder of Jiuhua."

Hearing what Liu Hua said, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but feel happy. After all, it was a happy thing for anyone to be valued by his master.

But Xu Qingfan said hesitantly: "It's just that you can't force the elixir formation. I'm afraid I won't be able to successfully form the elixir within six months. After all, if you force it, you may fall into a crazy state due to an unbalanced mentality, and the gain will not be worth the loss." ”

Seeing that Xu Qingfan could still keep calm at this time, Liu Huaxiang showed admiration in his eyes, but shook his head and said: "It's not six months, but five months. You still need to leave a month to balance your mentality, otherwise you can't enter the Jiuji Cave. But I don't force you to reach the Jindan stage within these five months, but I hope. After all, although the breakthrough in the Jiuji Cave is very fast, it is too dangerous. But as you said, just do your best, don't force it."

"Yes, I understand."

Xu Qingfan bowed and said. Liu Huaxiang said: "In fact, I think it is very likely that you will break through to the Jindan stage within five months. Your current cultivation level is far superior to ordinary late-stage spiritual monks, and you are only a hair's breadth away from the Jindan stage. Although five months is short, it is enough."

After saying this, Xu Qingfan and Liu Huaxiang began to chat, and the two inevitably had a fierce debate over their different concepts, and then Xu Qingfan was defeated again.

While Xu Qingfan and Liu Huaxiang were chatting, they suddenly saw two figures, one large and one small, suddenly appear in their sight from afar. When they looked carefully, they found that they were Ting'er and Xiaobi.

Xu Qingfan didn't care about chatting anymore. After bowing to Liu Huaxiang, he rushed towards Ting'er.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's appearance, Ting'er's eyes flashed with a look of relief.

In the next few days, after Xu Qingfan calmed down his mind, stabilized his state of mind, and got familiar with his new body, he settled down with Liu Huaxiang and Ting'er and went into seclusion again.

Four and a half months later, a majestic momentum suddenly burst out on the top of Jiuhua Mountain, and the wind and clouds changed.
