Seeking Immortality

Although everyone had been patrolling and exploring the seven islands for a whole day, it was already late. And before that, everyone followed Xu Qingfan to wander aimlessly in the East China Sea for more than a year, and should have been exhausted. But when they heard Bai Yu's words, everyone's eyes lit up. The expectation and sense of accomplishment of decorating their homes by themselves were enough to dispel their mental and physical fatigue.

Originally, Xu Qingfan wanted to suggest that everyone take a rest for a night before decorating the secluded cave, but seeing the expressions of everyone, he immediately understood their thoughts. In his heart, he couldn't help but recall the scene when he and his senior brother were driven away from their homes and then arranged the cave in the back mountain of Jiuhua. He couldn't help but smile slightly. Nodding and said, "Okay. Let's start decorating now."

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words. Everyone cheered and rushed to the Tianshu Island, which had the largest area and the most beautiful scenery. Although the spiritual energy here was the thinnest among the seven paths, everyone still unanimously decided to establish the main secluded place here.

After discussion. With Zhang Ningmei and Dongfang Qingling as the main people, the general appearance and layout of the cave after seclusion has been established in everyone's mind.

After the discussion. Everyone used local materials. There are a lot of plants on Tianshu Island. There are both tough black embroidery and vicissitudes of giant pines, and the green grass is even more lush. Everyone cut down a large amount of black bamboo and three giant pines while trying not to destroy the scenery of the island, and used yellow birds as transportation tools. They all started to clear a large area of ​​grass on the central hill of Tianshu Island. The wood of the ancient pine was used as the foundation. A large amount of black bamboo was used as the skeleton, and the dried green grass was used as the roof. A tall and spacious embroidery house was built on the top of the hill, about a hundred feet in radius, with three entrances and three exits inside and outside. The image is elegant and ancient, combined with the beautiful scenery of the island, adding three points of popularity.

This big bamboo house was named "Mingxin Hall" at the suggestion of Xu Qingfan. It means to understand the pursuit in your heart. It is self-motivation. It is also the expectation for all Taoist friends and disciples.

"The first entrance of Mingxin Hall is a reception place, which is exquisite and elegant, and the most meticulously decorated. Although Xu Qingfan felt that there would be no guests to be received in the future, he still decorated it under the strong suggestion of Dongfang Qingling and Zhang Ningmei. In this regard, these two women have the final say. In the eyes of Dongfang Qingling and Zhang Ningmei. Without a place to receive guests, how can it be considered a home?

The second entrance is where Xu Qingfan will preach to everyone in the future. Now Xu Qingfan is also practicing the three ways of evil and evil, and his cultivation is far beyond everyone else. In the future, everyone wants to improve their cultivation. Xu Qingfan's preaching is indispensable. This entrance looks tall and bright. Simple and elegant. It also occupies the largest area. Xu Qingfan personally hung the "Quiet and Far-reaching" hanging in his room before, and Xiaohui also wove a few cattails on the ground, which is considered There are only a few decorations in the house.

The third entrance is where Xu Qingfan teaches Taoism privately. After all, everyone's situation is different. Xu Qingfan also has to teach different Taoist magics in different categories.

And behind the "Mingxin Hall". In front of a small forest, everyone gathered some of the most elegant flowers and plants together to build a flower garden. In front of it is a stream passing through, and everyone built a small bamboo bridge on it. All the things are gathered together. It adds a bit of charm to this "Mingxin Hall".

In addition, everyone built a bamboo house on the water at the intersection of the hillock and the lakeside, which looks the most elegant. Standing on it. I just felt a sense of peace and tranquility coming to my face, looking at the fish swimming under my feet. There are unknown birds flying over the lake from time to time, and my heart can't help but become peaceful and distant, named "Yangxin Pavilion ". It is a place for everyone to relax.

After doing all this, everyone began to build their own houses at the foot and hillside of the hill. Seven bamboo houses and wooden houses of different styles are scattered all over the hill. Set off the blue sky and green land. It is leisurely.

The reason why there are seven houses is that only Bai Qingfu, Dongfang Qingling, Wang Zegang, Zhang Ningmei, Bai Yu, Tian Zhenxian, and Tian Zhenling are going to live here. However, Xu Qingfan does not plan to live on Tianshu Island. Instead, he plans to live on Yujie Island, where there are few animals and it is quiet and peaceful. Xu Qingfan wants to completely solve all the abnormalities in his body in the next period of time. He has been in seclusion for many years, but he doesn't want anyone to disturb him. Yujie Island is a good place.

However, Ting'er just wants to be with Xu Qingfan at this moment. So Xu Qingfan can only take her with him. And Ting Xu Qingfan didn't dare to let her live alone in her current situation.

Although everyone built the house with Taoist magic, the efficiency was very fast. But after all this was done, it took three or four hours. It was dark, but everyone was still tireless, and all kinds of magical powers that released light were released. For a while, Tianshu Island seemed like daylight.

After their own huts were decorated, everyone went to the Tianji Island, which was barren with grass and trees and rich in spiritual energy. A large amount of stone was transported and cut. Then the hill was leveled again. Pieces of three feet wide, two feet long and one foot thick stone were laid on the ground, and several bluestone paths were built between several bamboo houses.

After all this was finished, Tianshu Island was finally decorated.

These bluestones, bamboos and trees have been nourished by dense spiritual energy for countless years. They can all be regarded as natural treasures, and can even be refined into some powerful magic tools. However, Xu Qingfan used them to pave roads and build houses at this moment. Xu Qingfan felt like a nouveau riche.

Next, everyone tidied up the Yujie Island where Xu Qingfan would live in the future. They also built two bamboo houses and a flower garden for Xu Qingfan and Ting'er, with a bluestone path connecting them.

also. Everyone on Tianxuan Island, which has lush vegetation and a lot of spiritual grass, also sorted it out. In the future, this place will be a medicine garden where everyone cultivates and collects spiritual herbs and a place where they refine elixirs. In order to allow those elixirs to grow better, everyone has pulled out many useless weeds and flowers. Leave space for those precious spiritual grasses to grow among themselves, and look at the ginseng, red fruits, and birds everywhere. Everyone can imagine what it will be like in the future when a large number of rare elixirs are available. It is worth mentioning. During this period, Xiaobi went on many rampages trying to devour the spiritual grass. But they were all stopped by everyone, and it took a lot of effort.

Although Tianji Island is barren and extremely barren, its aura is several times richer than other islands, and it contains many precious materials. However, it was regarded by everyone as a place to collect materials for future retreat training and weapon refining, and several stone houses were built on it. It is usually uninhabited. After all, abundant spiritual energy can certainly improve everyone's cultivation level. But if you live here for a long time, you will be driven crazy by this rich and somewhat excessive spiritual energy. If there is no Mahayana period of cultivation. This kind of place is only suitable for occasional retreat. Even if you retreat, it must not last too long.

Except that these four small islands have each found their own uses. There are three small islands in other places - Tianquan, Yaoguang, and Kaiyang. Everyone couldn't find a way to deal with it for a while. Just a few stone houses and bamboo huts were built on it one after another. It is not known when someone will live in it.

However, Xu Qingfan discovered that the volcano on Tianquan Island did not seem to be extinguished. Although it is not likely to explode at any time. But it is also constantly brewing energy, with endless magma inside, which is extremely stable.

Notice this. Xu Qingfan couldn't help but think: "If the energy inside this volcano could be controlled, this would be an excellent location for refining weapons and elixirs. It's a pity. None of the people who live in seclusion with me are good at this. That's it. Get up. I don’t know how to use the precious alchemy and weapon refining materials in Tianxuan and Tianji islands.”

After all seven islands were arranged, everyone felt tired. But his eyes were full of excitement, and he felt a sense of accomplishment and pleasure after decorating his home with his own hands. Fill my heart.

Everything else is over. Xu Qingfan's work has just begun. He also needs to take advantage of the special terrain and shape of the Xialing Islands. Arrange several restrictions and formations around this area for hiding and protection.

Xu Qingfan was seen making arrangements within the island, and then first flew outside the Xiaguang range of the island. The fingers in his hands kept pinching, causing the sea water under his feet to continuously rise and fall. This initiation took a whole day. As time goes on. Gradually, a large amount of sea fog rose from the sea, and quickly wrapped the seven Xia Ling Islands in it. Look from afar. It was a blur.

Xu Qingfan's arrangement is the most advanced type of illusion array he knows so far. It's called the "Jiu Li Mysterious Heavenly Formation". People outside the formation can't see clearly what's going on inside. After entering it, you will get lost in it and return to the original place unknowingly, although there is no attack power at all. But it is extremely difficult to break, and after Xu Qingfan combined the sea fog and the spiritual energy of Xia Ling's seven islands. The power is doubled.

After setting up the "Nine Lost Heavenly Array". Xu Qingfan began to set up defensive formations again, such as the "Nine Li Mysterious Formation". The defensive formation barrier is better to arrange. Xiaguang beyond the Seven Islands is already a good prototype. Just change the operation and rules a little bit. By making it more reasonable and effective, the power can be incredibly powerful.

Under Xu Qingfan's control, the essence of the sun and moon within a radius of hundreds of miles was quickly rushing towards the seven Xia Ling Islands, and part of the spiritual energy within the seven Xia Ling Islands was also separated. They are all added to the colorful glow around the island, and the colorful glow is replenished in large quantities. Instead, he became more confused and restrained. Observing carefully, these colorful rays of light have turned into ninety-nine layers of colorful rays of light. Seemingly separate, they are perfectly integrated with each other. Extremely mysterious.

After doing all this, even if Xu Qingfan reaches the level of cultivation in the Mahayana period. He couldn't help but feel exhausted, and returned to Tianshu Island. It was already three days later.

At the same time, he secretly thought in his heart: "The maze array and the defensive array have been arranged. But I always feel that there is something missing. It is a pity that two array disks are missing to help. Otherwise, the power of these two arrays can be doubled. But the array But I don’t know how to make the plate..."

When Xu Qingfan arranged various prohibitions. Everyone else has been waiting quietly at the edge of Tianshu Island when Xu Qingfan returns. I happened to hear Dongfang Qingling and Zhang Ningmei discussing something with each other. The general idea is that the house has already been built. But no one brought any daily necessities. I'm afraid there will be some inconvenience in the future.

Hear what the two said. Thinking again about the volcano on Tianquan Island and the large amount of materials for refining weapons and alchemy on Tianxuan and Tianji Islands, but they cannot be used. There is also the prohibition of the lack of formation disks around the seven islands of Xia Ling, and my heart can't help but move. He thought secretly: "It seems that I am still not well prepared for this seclusion. I didn't bring any daily necessities, as well as the volcano and weapon refining materials. It would be great if the old beggar was here. Not only can he use those materials to refine There are many high-level magic weapons, and they can even make array disks for me..."

"Master!! Master!! I discovered a good thing!!"

Just when Xu Qingfan was thinking secretly. But I heard Bai Yu's shouting.

Turning around, he saw Bai Yu flying towards him quickly with the yellow bird on his back. It seemed to be carrying something very large.

Looking closer, it turned out to be a yellow jade with powerful spiritual energy. It was about seven feet high, one foot thick, and three feet wide. The abundant spiritual energy contained in it shocked Xu Qingfan. Others were stunned and speechless for a long time.

In the world of immortal cultivation, if this jade is described in one word, it is "priceless treasure"! ! It contains such powerful spiritual energy. It is simply an active spiritual vein. When its spiritual energy fluctuates, it actually echoes with the fluctuations of the five elements of heaven and earth.

After Bai Yu rushed to Xu Qingfan, he said excitedly: "Master, this is what I dug when I was collecting stones. And. Under this jade, there is a spiritual stone mine, all of which are high-level spiritual stones!!"

Xu Qingfan looked at this huge jade and his heart moved. But he suddenly remembered what he had missed.

Both the maze and the defense array are defensive means. If an external enemy attacks, it seems that a counterattack array is needed, but such an array is too difficult to set up, and it is necessary to protect the entire Xialing Seven Islands. Even Xu Qingfan is powerless.

But with this piece of jade, it is completely different.

Xu Qingfan waved his right sleeve. He took the jade away and said to everyone with a smile: "It's been so long, you are tired, go and rest."

After everyone reluctantly dispersed. Xu Qingfan also returned to Yujie Island with Ting'er. However, he taught Ting'er to Zhang Ningmei to take care of her, and he took the jade to retreat.

～～～～～～

I didn't expect that this retreat would last for half a year.

In half a year. Everyone has become accustomed to the life on Xialing Island. With the help of the overflowing spiritual energy and various natural treasures on Xialing Island. They have all improved a lot of cultivation, but they are puzzled that Xu Qingfan retreated for such a long time just after the arrangement.

Half a year later, Xu Qingfan finally came out of retreat, without a sound or a trace. But no one knew about it.

During this half year, Xu Qingfan constantly sacrificed and refined the huge spiritual jade found by Bai Yu. Not only did he finally use it for himself, but he also made it have a very close relationship with the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth of Xialing Island. As long as it is activated, it can easily gather the endless spiritual energy in the seven islands of Xialing, and turn it into a mighty attack. Attack any powerful enemy within a hundred miles of Xialing Island.

Of course, this piece of spiritual jade has great potential. Xu Qingfan spent half a year, but only used it slightly. This piece of spiritual jade has been staying around the spiritual veins of Xialing Island for countless years, and is closely related to the fluctuations of the spiritual energy of Xialing Island, but it is also the easiest to realize the function of utilization.

In the future, Xu Qingfan is going to sacrifice and refine it into a powerful top-level magic weapon that can induce and control the spiritual energy in the seven islands of Xialing, but now it is limited by means and time. But it can only be done this way.

After Xu Qingfan came out of retreat. He took this piece of spiritual jade and flew to the edge of Tianshu Island - this location is where the spiritual veins of the seven Xialing Islands are located, and it is most likely to attract the spiritual energy of the seven Xialing Islands - and inserted it into the ground.

It is worth mentioning that after the sacrifice, a large character similar to a large character was formed on this piece of spiritual jade.

Looking at this **-sized character on the jade, Xu Qingfan's heart suddenly moved slightly.

Light has two meanings. On the one hand, when humans are in darkness, light represents hope. It can dispel darkness and even panic and despair in people's hearts. On the other hand, when the light finally dispels the endless darkness and shines on the earth, then at this moment, light represents rebirth. No matter what happened in the inky night, everything will start again...

"It's time to start again."

Xu Qingfan withdrew his hand and floated silently in the air, the sea breeze blowing his hair. He looked at the tall jade tablet in front of him quietly. The elegant moment on it was so dazzling under the endless rays of light around the island.
