The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Ning Xin and the other six were naturally grateful to Cao Rui.

Although Cao Rui did not say it directly, they also knew that the special treatment should not be spread.

Otherwise, there would be a gap between the peripheral members of Deep Blue.

"Go, practice well." Cao Rui waved his hand.

Although these spiritual opportunities are much higher than the free opportunities they usually plunder.

But compared with the opportunities required to advance from the peak of the Refining Void to the Fusion Stage, it is not worth mentioning.

The body of a cultivator in the Fusion Stage needs to carry the power of rules.

Therefore, a cultivator in the Refining Void Stage needs a huge amount of energy to transform the body and soul when he advances to the Fusion Stage.

The promotion from the Refining Void to the Fusion Stage is also the longest step for a cultivator in the spiritual world to become a top cultivator.

Ning Xin and the other six left.

Cao Rui began his own closed-door practice.

This time, Cao Rui was ready to advance to the peak of the Refining Void in one go.

The opportunities in the blue ring were more than enough for Cao Rui to practice to the peak of the Refining Void.

After advancing to the peak of the Refining Void.

There will be a good increase in consciousness and mana.

The power of the magical power will naturally increase.

It is not impossible to break through 3,000 combat power by then.

Then he can really be ranked first with Sun Daoyi...

Cao Rui was immersed in cultivation.

Refining the secrets of heaven every day.

But this time it didn't last too long.

An uninvited guest came to the Deep Blue Spirit Ship.

It was the Red Leaf Sword Master, a member of the Blue Robe Star Pirates.

"Why did this guy come again?" Cao Rui frowned.

"Isn't there still some time before the agreed one-year deadline?" He thought to himself, and his consciousness locked onto the figure outside the spirit ship - Red Leaf Sword Master.

Cao Rui didn't need to think about the purpose of Red Leaf Sword Master's visit this time. It must be related to the tribute fee of the Blue Robe Star Pirates.

Although Cao Rui could pay the remuneration of the peripheral members of the Deep Blue Organization in advance.

But facing the tribute fee of 100,000 secrets of the Blue Robe Star Pirates, Cao Rui tried to delay it as much as possible.

After all, no one knows whether these greedy guys will come up with other tricks and demands to torment people after receiving the money.

Before the deadline is reached, it is safest to hold the money in your own hands!

Otherwise, if you hand it over in advance and are looking for trouble, there will be no place to argue.

In the meeting room of the Deep Blue Spirit Ship.

Cao Rui sat steadily at the top position, staring at the front with sharp eyes.

After a while, under the respectful guidance of two peripheral members, a figure came like a ghost. This person was wearing a blue robe dancing in the wind, and a long sword with a shining light hung on his waist. It was the Red Leaf Sword Master, a member of the Blue Robe Star Pirates.

After the Red Leaf Sword Master stepped into the meeting room, he first glanced at Cao Rui who was sitting at the top, and then slowly walked forward.

After he stood still, Cao Rui was the first to break the silence and asked, "Red Leaf Sword Master, why are you here today on my Deep Blue Spirit Ship?"

Although Cao Rui was polite on the surface, the coldness in his words was hard to conceal.

Red Leaf Sword Master was not a fool, and he could easily hear from Cao Rui's tone that the other party was not welcome to him.

But he didn't care about it, just smiled slightly, and then began to look around the entire conference room.

Seeing this, Cao Rui immediately understood what he meant, so he waved his hand gently, indicating that all other members of the conference room except the two of them should leave first.

After everyone left, the door of the conference room slowly closed.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Rui raised his hand again and instantly laid a powerful magic barrier, covering the entire conference room.

After doing all this, Cao Rui said softly: "In this way, it will be quiet here."

At this time, the Red Leaf Sword Master saw that the time had come, so he no longer hid his head and showed his tail, and asked directly: "Paofeng Ancestor, since you have already established a foothold in Tianwaitian, do you have any long-term plans?"

Long-term plans? Cao Rui's heart moved, and he looked at the Red Leaf Sword Master with a flickering look, secretly guessing the other party's intentions in his heart.

After some thinking, he vaguely guessed what the Red Leaf Sword Master was selling.

I only heard Cao Rui whispered: "Of course, it is to accumulate enough heavenly secrets until successfully promoted to the fusion stage."

His tone was as plain as water, but it contained a kind of firmness and confidence.

Hearing this, Hongye nodded slightly, indicating understanding, and then asked: "So when you are promoted to the fusion stage, will you choose to return to the heavenly realm to recuperate, or continue to stay in this vast starry sky and continue to explore alone?"

Cao Rui answered calmly: "If nothing unexpected happens, I will naturally choose to stay in this vast starry sky. Plunder the innate purple energy to strengthen my own cultivation. Only by constantly making progress and finally achieving the Mahayana realm or even ascending to the fairyland can you reach the end of the road of cultivation!"

The Red Leaf Sword Master showed an expression of approval. At this moment, he suddenly changed the subject and asked: "I wonder what you think of the Blue Robe Star Pirates, the Cloak Ancestor?"

Cao Rui's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, thinking about this question!

What kind of good stuff can be if it robs his secrets!

However, it is impossible for him to belittle the blue robe in front of the Red Leaf Sword Master.

So, he straightened his face and said, "The Blue Robe Star Pirates are naturally powerful and awe-inspiring. I have to admire them deeply!"

There was no other way. The situation was pressing, so Cao Rui could only flatter against his will.

The Red Leaf Sword Master didn't care much about Cao Rui's evaluation. This question was just to serve as a conversation starter. He said slowly: "Actually, the blue-robed star thieves you saw at the red cloud vortex are just an iceberg of the overall power. Just a corner."

After saying that, she glanced at Cao Rui meaningfully, as if she wanted to capture some information from the changes in his expression.

"Oh?" Cao Rui had a look of surprise on his face. This was indeed the first time he heard such news.

At this time, the Red Leaf Sword Master opened his mouth slightly and continued to speak unhurriedly.

It turned out that the blue-robed star thieves group in the vast starry sky outside the sky was actually divided into three major sections: the Void Refining Department, the Combination Department and the Mahayana Department according to their strength.

Let’s talk about the Lianxu Department, which has dozens of different teams!

And what Ji Zhan commanded was just an ordinary branch among them.

Judging from the numbers alone, these dozens of teams seem to be of considerable size.

However, when we look at the entire starry sky, we will find that these teams are scattered in every corner like stars, far apart from each other, and their influence becomes minimal.

It is worth mentioning that if a team in the Lianxu Department can cultivate a person strong enough to advance to the integration stage, then the team can apply upward and be allowed to enter the higher-level integration department.

Once you successfully join the Fusion Department, you will be able to enjoy more systematic ways and resources to plunder the innate purple energy.

You know, for those ordinary combined monks, it is not easy to obtain the innate purple energy, but through this method, it can undoubtedly save a lot of unnecessary trouble and setbacks.

To sum up, there is no doubt about the overall strength of this blue-robed star bandit group!

Finally, the Red Leaf Sword Master was seen smiling and said slowly: "What a coincidence! Our group of blue robes has been recruiting talents and recruiting new members recently."

His eyes fell on the Cloaked Ancestor, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "In my opinion, Cloaked Ancestor, your strength is really extraordinary."

After speaking, he paused for a moment, as if waiting for the other party's response.

Then, the Red Leaf Sword Master continued to persuade enthusiastically: "If you are interested, you can join our blue-robed star bandits at this moment. In this way, from now on, there will be a person in the starry sky outside the sky. A powerful force will serve as your solid backing.”

"There will be a clear path to guide you when you seize the heavenly secrets, the innate purple energy, and even the Hongmeng purple energy."

These words indeed sound very attractive, as if just a little nod will bring endless benefits and guarantees.

However, Cao Rui did not make a decision immediately.

He frowned slightly and began to think seriously.

In fact, he knew very well that he had a big backer in the Frost Heaven Realm behind him.

Not to mention the large number of Mahayana monks in the Frost Heaven Realm, just in terms of their background and influence, they are not a weak force in the entire Tianwai Tian.

Furthermore, if you really choose to become a star thief, it means a complete break with the Frost Realm.

After all, the Ten Thousand Worlds of Heaven and Earth have always hated characters like Star Thieves.

Once you embark on this path, it may be difficult to turn back, let alone hope to return to the Frost Heaven Realm to practice in seclusion safely.

Moreover, star thieves often live a wandering life with no fixed residence.

In contrast, relying on the power of the Heaven Realm, Cao Rui can return to the Heaven Realm anytime and anywhere, and quietly retreat for thousands or even tens of thousands of years without worrying about his own safety.

After some careful consideration, Cao Rui finally raised his head, with an apologetic smile on his face, and gently shook his head at the Red Leaf Sword Master, politely rejecting his kind invitation.

"Let me consider this matter carefully." Cao Rui said slowly.

"Thank you Lanpao for your appreciation and respect for me." Cao Rui added immediately.

The Red Leaf Sword Master standing opposite nodded calmly, expressing his understanding.

After all, it is not so easy for a fledgling Heaven Realm monk like Cao Rui to be recruited into the Star Thief Group.

However, the Red Leaf Sword Master was not in a hurry because he knew the reason.

According to common sense, the cloaked ancestor had just arrived in this mysterious and vast starry sky.

Although he has successfully occupied the West Point Land and has a relatively stable Tianji Sea for him to plunder, the amount of Tianji required to advance from the current realm to the integration stage is huge.

Even if everything goes well, it may be difficult to achieve the goal without one or two hundred years of accumulation.

Therefore, Hongye Sword Master has enough time to slowly convince Cao Rui to join his blue-robed star thieves group.

What's more, if something unexpected and interesting happens during this period, it might make this matter easier...

It has to be said that Hongye Sword Master and most people's calculations are not wrong.

However, what they never expected was that Cao Rui actually carried a rare Hongmeng treasure!

It is precisely because of the magical power of this treasure that Cao Rui can absorb the energy of heaven far more efficiently than ordinary monks.

After careful calculation, Cao Rui thought to himself: If the current astonishing rate of progress continues, it will only take a few decades at most before he can break through the bottleneck and successfully advance to the integration stage. .

"Ancestor Cloak, you still need to think carefully about this matter!" Hongye Sword Master looked at the person in front of him with burning eyes, and said slowly: "Although you are backed by the forces of heaven, you seem to be safe and secure. Yu, but this will greatly reduce your speed in improving your strength! Look at those monks in the heavenly realm, most of them are huddled in this small area of ​​​​the world, like frogs at the bottom of a well, with extremely narrow vision. "

"You can't see anything from the plundering of Tianji at this time. In the future, you can distinguish one from the other by plundering the rarer innate purple energy when you advance to the fusion body."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, then pointed to the vast starry sky, and said impassionedly: "We, the Blue Robed Star Thief Group, are completely different! We gallop across the entire outer sky. There is no need to worry about anything, there is no innate talent. Zi Qi will have us.”

"With your way of doing things, wouldn't it be too frustrating to be an ordinary monk in the heaven realm and overqualify you for your talents? In my opinion, only by joining our Star Thief Group can you truly shine!"

"The Star Thieves will be your haven!"

"Having said this, I will leave first."

After saying this, the Red Leaf Sword Master stood up slowly and made a gesture to leave.

After all, this is just his first persuasion, so he shouldn't talk too much, so as not to annoy Cao Rui.

The corner of Cao Rui's mouth twitched a few times without any trace, and he thought to himself: How come this star bandit group has become my harbor?

However, he still agreed: "Okay, I will consider this matter carefully."

Cao Rui watched the Red Leaf Sword Master leave from the Deep Blue Spirit Ship.

Hong Ye Sword Master suddenly stopped and said, "Chief Ji Zhan ordered me to stay in the west corner."

"There isn't even a stronghold in the West Corner, so only your dark blue spirit ship can still treat people."

"Do you mind if I make a nest on the Deep Blue Spirit Ship?"

Are you here to spy on me or Deep Blue? Probably both!

Although Cao Rui was unwilling in his heart, he had to give in to the power of the Blue Robed Star Thieves.

"It's an honor, I'll arrange a training room for you."

"No, I'll just set up a tent on the deck!"

In this way, there is an uninvited guest on the Deep Blue Spirit Ship.

The Red Leaf Sword Master of the Blue Robed Star Thieves Group is permanently stationed on the Dark Blue Spirit Ship.

After the initial discomfort, under Cao Rui's instructions, the members of the Deep Blue Organization got used to the presence of the Red Leaf Sword Master.

The Red Leaf Sword Master is quite measured and only occupies a corner of the deck for activities, occasionally going out to explore.

As for the territory of the Deep Blue members in the training room, they will never step into it.
