The evil cultivation of immortality, starting from an apprentice in a medicine shop

"Brother Zhen, why are you back again? Didn't you go to work?"

"I did. I was unhappy with the manager today, so I left in anger. I didn't tolerate his bad temper."

"Ah~"

Li Xing'er opened her mouth, her chubby little head was extremely surprised.

Can you be so awesome working outside?

Didn't Daddy say that it's not easy to make money working outside, and it's easy to be bullied.

She usually feels grateful to Brother Zhen. It's not easy to make money, but he still remembers her and often buys her delicious desserts and pastries.

"Hahaha~ Brother has something to do, go play."

Qiu Zhen smiled and sent the little girl away, went straight into the house, and fell asleep without thinking too much.

I tossed and turned last night, didn't sleep well, and my spirit was a little weak.

Although the mysterious Jinbo fairy method does not require the three treasures of "spirit, spirit and soul" to be cultivated to a certain level like ordinary fairy skills, there are still basic requirements, and you can't force yourself to practice when you are weak.

Especially at the critical moment of "The Sun is First Blossoming", which is about to lead the "Gate of Xuanpin" to descend.

Practicing rashly is undoubtedly seeking death.

A day will pass quickly, and it will be dusk again in a blink of an eye.

Qiu Zhen slept very soundly this time, letting go of all thoughts and firm in his heart.

He resolutely took leave from Qingmu Medicine Shop and came back to practice. It was not an act of anger after being bullied, nor was it an adventurous act under provocation, but a moment of "enlightenment".

He was a human being in two lives, saw through reincarnation, and looked down on the great terror between life and death.

The previous hesitation was just out of instinctive caution.

At this moment, he looked inward and heard the voice of his heart.

He only cultivated this life, not the next life, and did not want to live another life. This life was mediocre and returned to dust, and then entered reincarnation again, one life after another, muddled and unable to be liberated.

With this in mind, Qiu Zhen did not hesitate, picked up the axe from the woodshed, took the golden silk book, and left from the backyard over the mountain like a monkey.

If this practice is not successful, it will be reduced to a demon.

Qiu Zhen still has basic conscience as a human being, and he must not harm innocent villagers.

An hour later.

A deserted mountain with a cliff cave.

This cliff cave is a good place for him to collect herbs.

Hanging on a cliff of 100 feet, covered by vines outside the cave, it is very secretive and safe. If you sprinkle it with snake and insect repellent medicine, it is very safe to spend the night in the mountains at night, which is just right for him to retreat and break through the last step of [100-day foundation building].

Qiu Zhen sat cross-legged on the straw mat in the cave, entering into a state of tranquility.

When meditating and entering into a state of concentration, you cannot sit there like a hard shell, nor can you cling to emptiness;

Let go of all thoughts and distractions, but your mind must be clear;

You cannot want to enter a certain state or get a certain result too much.

There is an eight-character secret to gold and silk-"seemingly there and not there, seemingly true and not there".

In the past, Qiu Zhen needed a lot of effort to enter this state of "seemingly there and not there, seemingly true and not there".

After this sudden realization, it was surprisingly smooth. In a few breaths, he entered a mysterious state.

With his eyes closed, a golden light flickered between his eyebrows.

In the cliff cave, a mysterious and wonderful breath quietly descended.

The Great Zhou Dynasty set up the Demon Suppression Department, which was responsible for the affairs of demons and monsters, exorcised demons and evil spirits, protected the territory and the people, and was distributed in various places to suppress demons and evil spirits from all directions.

Matters related to demons and monsters, involving the extraordinary power of ghosts and gods, are often extremely important. The Demon Suppression Departments in various places are directly under the General Department, not under the jurisdiction of the local government, and have the right to patrol and arrest, engage in reconnaissance, arrest, and interrogation, and have their own prisons without going through the local departments, and have great power.

Changle Mansion, Demon Suppression Department, East Courtyard.

"Swish~"

The pages of the files were turned one after another.

In the hall, twelve tables were arranged in two rows, and each table was piled with files like a small mountain. A group of clerks were carefully reading the files, with serious expressions and meticulousness.

"Sir, why didn't you come home after your business trip? Madam was very angry."

A young man dressed as a book boy handed a cup of hot tea to the man in the main seat in the hall. Seeing his son frowning slightly, he quickly stopped talking and looked at the clerks of the Demon Suppression Division in the hall reading the files. He realized something and said:

"Sir, the [Stone Forest Evil Case] ​​is very difficult?"

"Yes!"

The man in the main seat had a pair of tiger eyes with a light golden color, big yellow eyes, and a big nose called Lanting, like a lion. His appearance of wealth and nobility was fully revealed. He had an upright figure, a tiger back and ape arms, and a strong blood. The whole person was like a furnace, and evil spirits were afraid of him. The demeanor of a martial arts master was undoubtedly revealed.

This person was not someone else, but the leader of the Demon Suppression Division of Changle Prefecture, Wei Tanzhi.

He was born in the Wei family of Jingdu, and was a descendant of the founding hero, Duke Hong. He was truly a nobleman born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He had an extraordinary talent in martial arts. He was successful in martial arts and sat on the throne of the leader of the Demon Suppression Department of a prefecture at the age of thirty-four. He was in charge of the affairs of the demons and ghosts in the prefecture, and he was in a high position with unlimited power and glory.

However, Wei Tanzhi's face did not show any complacency at the moment, but a bit of helplessness:

"I invited several masters to help, and it took three months to finally wipe it out. During this period, many brothers in the department died, and the loss was not small. There were many things to do in the future to provide relief to the families of brothers."

"Young master is kind."

The book boy complimented, and then looked at the clerk flipping through the files in the hall, a little curious:

"Since Shilin has been wiped out, why are you still worried? It's okay to leave the matter of relief to the chief clerk of the department. Madam."

"Shilin has been wiped out, but the case has not been resolved."

Wei Tanzi shook his head, worried:

"Outsiders all think that this [Stone Forest layman] has profound spiritual practices and magical powers, and he only caused huge waves after he became a demon. In fact, he himself is not very good at spiritual practices. He is only at the level of [Hundred Days of Foundation Building], and even [Refining Qi and Condensing Qi] 】 He has not entered the door, and his own strength is not as good as that of one of my subordinates. "

"In just a few months, the evil spirit has half-stepped into the realm of martial arts master. If it had been ten days and a half later, I'm afraid there would be no return."

"Ah~"

The book boy couldn't help but feel palpitations and fear.

The strength of the devil's evil spirits is closely related to the strength before he became possessed.

Under normal circumstances, monks become obsessed with evil spirits and become much stronger after transforming into demons.

However, in just a few months after becoming a demon, his strength has skyrocketed across realms and his growth has been astonishing. This is extraordinary and not an ordinary evil spirit.

As a scholar from a big family, he studied and practiced martial arts with his own son, so he was well-informed and had extraordinary vision.

Soon, the scholar Xu thought of something and his pupils shrank:

"Sir, could it be the legendary Alchemy and Buddha's Heart Seal that reached heaven in one step?"

"Yes, only the highest-grade fundamental method that directly points to the great road can attract such terrifying demons."

Wei Tanzhi nodded slightly and sighed:

"After wiping out the Shilin laymen, the inheritance of the Immortal Dharma disappeared. Come to think of it, he didn't have much confidence in his own cultivation of this method. Before retreating, he carried out the so-called [Xinhuo Inheritance], spread it, and passed on the fate method to the so-called destined people. people."

Speaking of this, Wei Tanzhi couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.

The appearance of another "destined person" means that in the area under his jurisdiction, another extremely fast-growing, extremely terrifying and difficult monster is about to be born.

"Three months have passed. If he dies, the destined person will receive the inheritance again, and the next great demon will probably be born."

Wei Tanzhi sighed leisurely:

"I only hope that this time we can discover the traces of the demon as soon as possible and kill this evil spirit in its infancy."

"I see!"

The book boy was slightly shocked, and immediately understood why his young master had not entered the house, so he went straight to the Demon Suppression Division to read the files submitted by each county.

After thinking about it, maybe he thought of something, and the book boy frowned slightly:

"Sir, if the next [destined person] masters this top-notch immortal method"

"No way!"

Wei Tanzhi interrupted his boy's nonsense and said in a determined tone:

"This top-quality fundamental method can reach heaven in one step. Once you get started, you will have laid the foundation for immortals, Buddhas, and sages."

"Even in the most prosperous era of ancient immortality, the cultivation of the Immortal Path was protected by its own ancestors, and the sky was full of immortal Buddhas to protect it. It was difficult for external demons to invade, and inner demons were difficult to arise. It was very rare to achieve this method, let alone the practice of the Immortal Path now entering the final stage. "

Speaking of this, Wei Tanzhi snorted coldly, quite disdainfully:

"Nowadays, the so-called "cultivation under the guise" is popular, using the guise of foundation-building wonders to deceive the heavens and confuse demons, and to achieve enlightenment and enter the Tao. It is a dead end. Ordinary methods are okay. This is the highest-grade fundamental method. You don't have to think about it."

"This is not just a matter of one's ability to understand, but a surging trend that is irreversible."

If the book boy has some enlightenment.

"Cultivation under the guise" originally meant seeking the true self and achieving righteousness by using the four false bodies of "earth, water, wind, and fire", but now it refers to entering the Tao with the help of "foundation-building wonders".

"Sir, is there no [Foundation-Building Rare Object] in the world that can be used to cultivate the Alchemy Method?"

"Yes, there are."

Wei Tanzhi's eyes were long:

"It is said that the origin of one side of the world has turned into a foundation-building rare object, and there is a glimmer of hope."

"Sir, what is the origin of heaven and earth?"

"I don't know."

"Oh~"

Seeing that his young master only knew a little about it, the scholar was very sensible and did not continue to ask for advice. Instead, he comforted himself and said:

"When a demon like this is born, it will definitely cause a lot of noise. Master, if you notice it in advance, you will definitely be able to kill it in time."

"It would be nice to be this relaxed."

Wei Tanzhi shook his head:

"The Dan Dao Dun method is profound and mysterious, mysterious and mysterious. Whether it succeeds or fails, it all happens in an instant."
