The clouds closed up, blocking the last ray of moonlight.
Qin Sang lowered his head and walked into the attic. After pouring wine for Master Tongshen and Mr. Lu, he stood quietly and listened to their conversation.
What he was thinking about was the "Sky Demon Refining" technique.
Unexpectedly, entering this illusion would actually point him in the direction of "Celestial Demon Refining".
Due to lack of skills, Qin Sang chose to major in "Purple Sword Sutra", but this does not mean that he will give up "Celestial Demon Refining". After all, everything is undecided after the integration period, and it is still unclear which path he will take.
Maybe he will turn to majoring in "Celestial Demon Refining" and embark on the path of strength.
Even if we don't consider the improvement of strength through dual cultivation of law and body, according to what Ghost Mother said before, energy, energy and spirit will be of great benefit to future breakthroughs. As long as his energy allows, he will definitely try his best to improve himself.
However, after learning that the path of ancient demon cultivators was to send demon souls to stars, Qin Sang had another layer of worries.
Why did the demon clan in later generations almost completely abandon this path? Is there some huge drawback and hidden danger?
Even the demon clan has given up, and it seems unwise to continue practicing "Celestial Demon Refining" by oneself.
The demon cultivators of later generations will also cultivate the Dharma during the Void Refining Stage. I don’t know what changes will occur after breaking through the Integrated Stage.
If the way forward is not feasible, he may be able to turn to the demon cultivation method of later generations, so he will not give up "Celestial Demon Refining" before breaking through the integration stage.
Qin Sang's thoughts were racing, and he always felt like he was seeing flowers in the fog. He wondered whether the illusion could give birth to great powers in the combined stage or even the Mahayana stage, and in what way they would exist.
In the world of cultivating immortals, entering the combined stage can be called a powerful person, with vast supernatural powers, and can already touch the great road. If this illusion can be transformed into a lifelike combined stage power, it will be too unbelievable, and it will be unimaginably difficult to break the illusion.
.
Nowadays, Qin Sang no longer dares to treat this place as a pure illusion. There must be many secrets hidden here, waiting for him to discover. If he really encounters a powerful demon cultivator in the Star Soul Realm, he might have the opportunity to tell him
consult.
In this case, I also want to pick up the "Celestial Demon Refining" technique and disguise myself as an ancient demon cultivator. In this situation, it will definitely be safer. I can also get information from the demon clan, which will also be helpful in finding Liuli.
But doing this will divert half of the energy, and the strength will increase even more slowly.
With these questions in mind, Qin Sang did not forget to prick up his ears and eavesdrop on the conversation between Master Tongshen and Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu saw that Master Tongshen did not avoid this young apprentice at all, and he knew that Qin Sang was highly valued by Master Tongshen, so except for the most critical secrets, which were communicated through voice transmission, he told everything else directly.
"After bidding farewell to my fellow Taoist, I went to Lingkong Mountain. Without any effort, I got a lot of information. Almost all the Golden Eagle Clan monks responsible for guarding the territory received the same order. They posted portraits everywhere to look for those people...
…”
Mr. Lu said while drinking.
Lingkong Mountain does not refer to a mountain, but to an entire huge mountain range. It is located in the northeast of Yuanjing Mountain and is where the entire Golden Eagle clan inhabits.
Lingkong Mountain is very vast, and the Golden Eagle Clan monks become stronger as they go deeper. Except for the Star Soul Realm's mighty divine dragon, it is said that the dojos of the Golden Eagle Clan's Dharma Realm masters are deep in the Lingkong Mountain.
Yuanjing Mountain is located on the outskirts of Lingkong Mountain, and the Golden Eagle Clan only sent one Little Eagle King from the Lingming Realm to guard it.
"Oh? Did those fellow Taoists cause a scene in Lingkong Mountain?"
Master Tongshen secretly thought that these people could escape unharmed even if they made a big fuss in Lingkong Mountain, so I'm afraid it's not something they can interfere with.
But I was encouraged by my apprentice and became a little impulsive.
"No, Lingkong Mountain has always been very stable! But the order is indeed sent from the depths of Lingkong Mountain."
Mr. Lu's expression became a little more solemn, "In the past few days, I have invited several friends from the Golden Eagle clan to a gathering. One of them revealed a piece of news during the banquet. The source of this order is probably the Phoenix clan!"
"Phoenix Clan?"
Master Tongshen put down his wine glass with a surprised look on his face.
Mr. Lu nodded, "This fellow Taoist has a profound background, and his information should be credible. If those people offend the Golden Eagle Clan, the Golden Eagle Clan will definitely send out the strongest members of the clan to hunt them down. Now they are just posting portraits, and we don't see them going to war, which shows that the Golden Eagle Clan
The clan is not too concerned about it, maybe it was because of the Phoenix clan that they were exiled here."
"not necessarily!"
Master Tongshen said in a sad tone, "Perhaps there is an undercurrent surging behind us, and we are not even aware of it! It's my fault that I was a bit reckless. We jumped into the whirlpool without knowing anything, and we were afraid that we would get burned!"
His and Mr. Lu's backgrounds are stronger than those of casual cultivators, and the Taoist friends they have friends with are also very different in strength and influence. Openly opposing the Golden Eagle Clan is tantamount to hurling an egg against a stone, let alone the Phoenix Clan.
Mr. Lu was shocked when he heard this, "What do you mean, fellow Taoist, that someone wants to lure the snake out of its hole? If we stop now, I'm afraid it's too late..."
It turns out that Mr. Lu also met a human Taoist friend in Lingkong Mountain, and that human monk’s sect was at the northern foot of Lingkong Mountain.
The territories of the Golden Eagle Clan and the Phoenix Clan are separated by the territories of some small clans. Those small clans are completely dependent on the Phoenix Clan and obey the Phoenix Clan's words, so Lingkong Mountain can barely be considered as bordering the Phoenix Clan's territory.
The human monk was entrusted by Mr. Lu to go and inquire. He had already returned to the mountain gate, and it was too late to call him back now. And there was Lingkong Mountain between the two places, so it was even more unsafe to send talisman letters.
There was an uneasy atmosphere in the room, and Qin Sang was deeper than they thought.
The Phoenix Clan was also a super clan in ancient times. Only a few major clans such as the Dragon Clan can compete with the Phoenix Clan. The only one who is superior to the Phoenix Clan is the Yao Xing!
If a great power in the integration stage evolves in the illusion, it is likely that the great power has noticed the abnormality and is looking for the intruder.
"Perhaps I am overthinking it! In this case, we will wait for the news about that fellow Taoist before making a decision," Master Tongshen comforted, "However, we must remind Brother Kui and the others that what they do next must be
Be more careful."
To rescue those people, the two of them alone were not enough, so Mr. Lu contacted several more friends.
"That's right," Mr. Lu nodded and looked around, "Lu's place is often visited by Taoist friends, and there are many people. Taoist friends like to be quiet and not attract attention. Next, the Taoist friends will be in the middle to make contact."
Master Tongshen said "good", and then the two of them had a secret conversation before Mr. Lu said goodbye and left.
Watch Mr. Heron fly out of the mountain.
A look of worry flashed through Master Tongshen's eyes, and he sighed softly: "Do you now know the dangers of the world of cultivating immortals?"
Qin Sang blamed himself: "It's all my fault for causing trouble and putting master in danger!"
Seeing that Qin Sang really understood and was so clear about the world, Master Tongshen's mood immediately improved greatly, and he turned to smile and said: "Don't worry, my disciple. If the sky falls, Master will still hold it up! Even a cunning rabbit
Sancao, your senior brother came down the mountain this time just to do something for you.
The master is looking for another dojo. We can afford to hide it even if we can't afford it. At worst, I will settle you down for the master and go find the paradise opened by the descendants of the gods and the strong men of the human race. Then I will take you there, so you don't have to be afraid anymore.
These monsters!"
After Mr. Lu left, peace returned to Yuanjing Mountain. The crisis they worried about did not come, and Qin Sang lived a stable life at the mountain gate.
Master Tongshen originally wanted to seek opportunities in the world of mortals, but unexpectedly met Qin Sang, so he stopped traveling and did not intend to go down the mountain again.
Qin Sang's quiet room was next to Master Tongshen, who often came out of seclusion to give guidance to Qin Sang.
After Qin Sang's repeated insistence, Master Tongshen finally became impatient and taught him the most basic alchemy skills.
Originally, Master Tongshen was worried that Qin Sang was learning alchemy because he wanted to use foreign objects for quick success, but he didn't expect to give him a bigger surprise.
This apprentice's talent in alchemy is actually higher than in cultivation. He often explains several secret books of alchemy carefully selected by him, and Qin Sang can understand 80% to 90% of it. Then he asks his master for some advice.
You can fully understand the problem.
You know, Qin Sang has just started practicing, and even the most basic alchemy skills are beyond Qin Sang's level.
Master Tongshen has never seen such a monster disciple. When he thinks that as this disciple's cultivation level gets higher and higher, he may have nothing to teach him, he can't help sweating on his forehead.
Due to Qin Sang's unparalleled performance, Master Tongshen took the initiative to ignite the earth's fire and opened a small fire room for him, allowing him to personally refine elixirs to see if his talent was really that high.
Of course, what he asked Qin Sang to refine were the most basic elixirs, mostly powders, nectar and the like, and the medicinal materials were taken on demand.
Qin Sang's performance naturally did not disappoint. Part of the elixir he refined was shown to Master Tongshen, and the other part went into his stomach.
Coupled with the elixir carefully prepared by Master Tongshen to strengthen his body and cultivate his vitality, with the help of the elixir, Qin Sang's cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and he soon entered the third level of the Qi Refining Stage.
In the eyes of the master, spiritual practice and alchemy go hand in hand. Not only do they not delay each other, they will also complement each other in the future.
Of course, this is according to later generations, Qin Sang is still at the first level of the basic skills of Yuanjing Mountain.
Like the demon clan, in ancient times, the realms of the human race were also very different from those in later generations.
The human race has four realms: refining essence to transform into qi, refining qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, and refining emptiness to combine with Tao, which roughly correspond to the demon clan's spirit realm, form transformation realm, law phase realm and star soul realm.
From this we can see the evolution of the world of immortality. After a long process, later generations of immortality practitioners have summarized a complete and reasonable system of cultivation. What should be done in each realm and what is the key to breaking through to the next realm are all clear.
It is summed up based on the experience of countless predecessors.
In ancient times, there was also a saying about foundation building, which was included in the realm of refining qi. Successful foundation building was equivalent to the foundation building period in later generations, but before that, you could only explore on your own, and there were no thirteen levels in the qi refining period.
In the fire room.
"It's just an ordinary iron ring..."
Qin Sang had just finished refining a furnace of medicine and was sitting next to the alchemy cauldron, playing with the Qianjun Ring in his hand.
His cultivation level was too low. Qin Sang's cultivation level and spiritual consciousness did not support his continued alchemy refining. Even if he wanted to control the fire, he needed to use the magic circle carved on the alchemy cauldron by Master Tongshen.
He made some disguises, and Qian Jun Jie's appearance changed drastically.
Qin Sang has started to practice. In his perception, the Qianjun Ring is still the most ordinary iron ring and cannot open the Small Cave Heaven.
"Is it because I can't cultivate enough?"
Qin Sang frowned.
If he had to reach his previous level of cultivation before the Qianjun Ring could be restored to its original state, even if he was a re-cultivator, he would never be able to do it in a short period of time.
With a slight sigh, Qin Sang put away the Qianjun Ring and counted the time silently, secretly thinking that the master should be released from seclusion soon.
He glanced at the medicinal materials on the shelf next to him and prepared to refine the first elixir recorded in "Qinglu Returning Pill Jue" to give his master a 'surprise'.
Speaking of this matter, Qin Sang discovered another difference between ancient times and later generations.
The mustard seeds here are very valuable!
When later generations of disciples enter the school, the master will first hand out a mustard seed bag, but Qin Sang has not yet had one.
Master Tongshen once said that when he succeeds in building the foundation, he will buy him a mustard seed artifact as a reward. This is true for both senior brothers and sisters. Moreover, the space inside is very small and can only store necessities.
"There are still people who yearn for the ancient times, but they don't know that the ancient times were really inconvenient!"
Qin Sang shook his head secretly, put the spiritual materials on the shelf into the alchemy cauldron, touched the magic circle, and triggered the earth fire.
The firelight illuminated Qin Sang's little face, which was glowing red.
He looked serious and completed every step meticulously. The fire in the fire room became brighter and brighter, almost igniting his clothes. Finally, the alchemy cauldron vibrated, the cauldron lid clanged, and a faint blue light came out from the gap.
Qin Sang squinted his eyes, lifted the lid of the cauldron, and saw two blue pills, as clear as water, which were Hualu Pills.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With his current level of cultivation, it was really difficult to refine Hualudan. Fortunately, he succeeded.
After adjusting his breath for a moment, Qin Sang picked up a Hualu Pill and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, his cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, his body swayed, his eyes were blurry, as if he was drunk, and finally he simply lay down on the ground and fell asleep.
"Disciple..."
"Apprentice?"
I don’t know how much time had passed before the Master Tongshen’s call came from outside the door.
No one responded inside. Master Tongshen realized something was wrong and broke in directly. He couldn't help but be surprised.
"Disciple!"
Master Tongshen rushed to Qin Sang's side, his eyes suddenly widened.
Because he saw a Hualu Pill in the alchemy cauldron! Qin Sang's current state was clearly that of taking the Hualu Pill.
"This, this, this..."
Master Tongshen was so surprised that he was speechless.
You know, he only used Hualu Dan as an example to tell Qin Sang what to pay attention to when refining the elixir, but did not explain the most subtle aspects of the elixir.
This apprentice actually succeeded in refining Hualudan through his own exploration!
Moreover, Qin Sang has not yet truly practiced the "Clear Dew Returning Pill Technique" and will not gain the benefits of the technique!
Suppressing the ups and downs of thoughts in his heart, Master Tongshen carried Qin Sang back to the quiet room and personally guarded the bedside.
"Master," after the medicinal power wore off, Qin Sang faintly woke up and his cultivation level skyrocketed.
"You are so audacious!" Master Tongshen wanted to scold him with a straight face, but he couldn't keep his lips down.
That night, Master Tongshen finally taught Qin Sang the "Clear Dew Returning Pill Technique".
External medicine and internal cultivation complemented each other, and Qin Sang successfully reached the bottleneck and returned to the foundation-building stage.
