In the outer star sea, somewhere in the sky far away from the Monster Island, a spirit boat is speeding.
The person driving this spirit boat was Luo Hong, who had teleported to the outer sea through the teleportation array in Tianxing City a year ago.
At this moment, Luo Hong stood at the bow of the ship, closing his eyes and looking at the sea chart in the jade slip.
Ye Qingze stood aside respectfully. Compared with a year ago, his mental appearance was very different. His eyebrows were starry and his eyes were sharp, his energy and blood were full, and his whole body was filled with evil spirits.
He will undergo such changes because of the blood marrow method he cultivates.
Ever since Ye Qing refined the blood marrow crystals, due to Luo Hong's pressure, he never dared to relax the cultivation of the blood marrow crystals. His own foundation was so poor that Luo Hong even gave him many pills to nourish qi and blood.
, could not stop him from losing weight day by day.
Until Luo Hong took him to the outer sea.
Compared to the Inner Star Sea, which is ruled by the Star Palace, except for a few monster islands, the Outer Star Sea has no order at all. Killing people and seizing treasures is just a matter of course.
In the first year after arriving in the outer star sea, Luo Hong encountered three murders to seize treasures. After all, they were two foundation-building monks traveling together.
The gangs that kill people and seize treasures are composed of several monks in the foundation-building stage and several in the Qi-refining stage. The number of people is variable. The three times Luo Hong encountered them ranged from as few as five to as many as ten or more.
Judging from the monster information found in the storage bag afterwards, it was obvious that the group of ten people had just finished hunting monsters and encountered Luo Hong's spirit boat on the way back, and then intercepted the attack without hesitation.
Lawless.
In these three murders and treasure hunts, except for the first time, Luo Hong did not take any action. Ye Qing almost completely destroyed the opponent by himself.
The blood marrow crystal, which is made from more than half of the golden elixir, can penetrate the shield of the monks in the foundation-building stage with no effort at all, and its escape speed is extremely fast. Ye Qing's command to kill the monks of the same level is like trying to retrieve something from a bag.
Moreover, the monks killed by the blood marrow crystals will have their whole body essence, blood, and mana absorbed by them, making the blood marrow crystals stronger.
After killing three people and seizing the treasure, the quality of Ye Qing's blood marrow crystal has reached the level of a half-step magic weapon, and it has begun to feed Ye Qing back, gradually strengthening his physical body, as if he is practicing a secret method of body refining.
The miraculous effect of the blood marrow method made Ye Qing completely devoted to Luo Hong, and he waited every day for monks who did not know life and death to come to his door.
Unfortunately, as Luo Hong went deeper and deeper into the outer sea, the chances of encountering immortal cultivators became less and less. In the past three months, not a single ray of light of an immortal cultivator was seen.
Luo Hong saw Ye Qing's changes and felt cold in his heart.
The feedback of the blood marrow crystal seems wonderful, but in fact it is a kind of erosion. As long as the cultivator cannot control the desire to become stronger and keeps killing people to cultivate this crystal, when the power of this crystal exceeds the cultivator's own realm, its power will be eroded.
Change the physical body of the cultivator.
Although Luo Hong didn't know what the final result of this change would be, since this secret technique was given by the devil, he would assume the worst outcome.
But on the other hand, as long as you don't be tempted by this and control the strength of the blood marrow crystals to lower than the critical point, you can avoid this side effect.
Although the power of this blood marrow crystal will be weaker, since Luo Hong does not intend to cultivate it all the time, he can use it as a consumable and make it self-destruct after hitting it, which can be regarded as a good trump card.
Luo Hong didn't want to continue to strengthen Ye Qing's one. He had a very bad feeling.
This man's time has come.
"This is it."
Luo Hong suddenly opened his eyes and said softly.
A black spot appeared on the sea in front of the spirit boat. After a while, the black spot enlarged into a small island.
This island is an island with spiritual veins in the chart drawn by Patriarch Yi Lao.
This place is remote enough and suitable for Luo Hong to set up formations and practice.
In order to make the elixir as soon as possible, Luo Hong did not wait for Old Demon Han in Tianxing City, but left him a letter in Lanyunge, inviting him to help him refine the elixir in a few decades, at the cost of staying in Huotong.
The weapon refining technique learning materials in the room.
Now that he finally arrived at a suitable island, Luo Hong couldn't wait to set up a covering formation around the island, and asked Ye Qingqing to capture the level 2 or above monsters on the island.
A few days later, as waves of white mist rose, the arrangement of the fog cage and cloud lock formation was completed.
With the island protection formation as a shield, Luo Hong began to set up the Five Evil Spirit Gathering Formation. Because of his previous experience, it only took him two months to complete the formation this time.
When Ye Qing felt the majestic spiritual energy in the five-color giant ring, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva and was astonished.
This time, Luo Hong used magic to build a large wooden house at the center of the formation. He occupied the place with the highest spiritual pressure, and he designed the outer areas with weaker spiritual pressure to serve as a prison for the black-robed man.
After the formation was built, Luo Hong imprisoned Ye Zhao and the other five people and awakened their consciousness.
Luo Hong told them that he wanted to form a force and that they would be his future subordinates, but there were restrictions from the Qingyang Sect in their souls and he could not believe them.
However, Luo Hong then said that he had a way to lift the restriction, but they must practice to the peak of their current realm and use the opportunity to break through the bottleneck to lift the restriction.
Although these words came very suddenly, Ye Qing had regained his freedom and seemed to be much more advanced than before. The five Qingyang Sect demon cultivators, including Ye Zhao, immediately believed him.
In addition, Luo Hong only asked them to practice, so the five of them followed the instructions with hesitation, after all, everyone wanted to live.
Of course, Luo Hong never thought of letting these people go from the beginning to the end. From the day they were bloodbathed in the Ye family's darkroom, they were already dead in his eyes.
Letting them practice in the Five Evil Spirit Gathering Formation is just to let them meet the basic conditions for refining the Heavenly Demon Pill, that is, to reach the peak of their current realm.
In this way, through the secret technique of Liuhe Divine Needle, they can be used to attract the devil.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Ye Qing asked with great respect. Just after Luo Hong asked him to appear in front of his father to speak his mind, he called him to the main spiritual room.
Feeling the extremely rich spiritual energy in the main spiritual chamber, Ye Qing couldn't help but think to himself: Does the master want me to practice here?
However, just as he showed a hint of joy, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
It turned out that Luo Hong had activated the restriction in Ye Qingyuan Shen just a moment ago and instantly obliterated it.
When Luo Hong was about to use a small fireball to burn Ye Qing's still-vital body, Ye Qing's chest and abdomen screamed like a high-pitched baby.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Qing's body withered instantly, and a ball of blood shot out from his chest and abdomen. It was the blood marrow crystal he had cultivated.
Luo Hong took a closer look and immediately showed a solemn expression on his face.
I saw that the blood marrow crystal was squirming like a ball of flesh, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a blood baby only the size of an egg. Its hands, feet and head were somewhat incomplete, as if it was not fully formed.
This blood marrow crystal is actually a living thing!
A stern look flashed in Luo Hong's eyes, and he waved his hand to shoot out three fireballs, heading towards the blood baby with the intention of burning them to death!
Logically speaking, evil spirits such as the blood baby are most afraid of flames and thunder. However, after three balls of flames burned through it, the blood baby was not only unscathed, but also roared even more loudly. It actually aroused the energy and blood in Luo Hong's body and rushed towards him.
Come.
Fortunately, Luo Hong's physical body was very powerful, and this influx of energy and blood was instantly suppressed by him. After avoiding the blood baby's attack, he snorted coldly, and his spiritual consciousness surged out from the Niwan Palace,
Immediately, he knocked the blood baby away, making it weak.
Luo Hong took the opportunity to slash the blood baby with his flying sword, but no matter how many pieces he chopped into pieces, the opponent would recover in an instant.
"This ghost thing is really evil. It seems that apart from being afraid of divine attacks, no other means can hurt it."
Knowing that he could not be eliminated for the time being, Luo Hong took out a soul-suppressing talisman and wrapped it around the blood baby, immediately calming it down.
This blood baby had no relationship with the devil. Luo Hong didn't want to put it in the treasure bag or take it with him, so he took it to the pre-built devil cave to store it, preparing to use the power of the devil to save it.
Its blast!
After dealing with this unexpected incident, Luo Hong returned to the main spirit chamber to practice.
In fact, the principles of the first three realms of cultivating immortals are similar. Refining Qi, building foundations, and forming pills is just a process in which mana changes from gaseous to solid. Its core is to accumulate enough mana to ascend to the spirit. Purifying mana makes it easier to change states.
According to the bottleneck formula: F(n)=2?-1.
To break through the pill-forming bottleneck, a cultivator must have the upper limit of 131071 mana.
Not counting the mana in the thirty-six acupoints, Luo Hong now has more than 90,000 mana in his Dantian when it is full, which is still a long way from the bottleneck of 130,000.
When a normal cultivator reaches this stage, he or she will try every means to purify mana or expand the Dantian in order to approach the pill-forming bottleneck of 130,000 mana, and then use various auxiliary elixirs to overcome this bottleneck when impacting the pill-forming process.
If the immortal cultivator's soul is strong enough, he can use his powerful spiritual consciousness to compress his mana, thereby reducing the need to break through the upper limit of mana.
Luo Hong can't escape from this circle. What he needs to do now is to purify his magic power and strengthen his soul.
However, when he does these two things, he has advantages that other immortal cultivators cannot match.
The blue round grain is a pill-level spiritual object, but because it was made by Luo Hong using the blood refining method, it is one with his mind and can be controlled freely beyond the shield. Moreover, because of the physical properties of the spirit son aggregate, it can help
Luo Hong's pure magic power saved him a lot of time.
Not to mention strengthening the soul, there are more than twenty demon pills growing in the cage downstairs.
With these two major advantages, coupled with the foundation he had laid during his Qi refining period, Luo Hong was extremely confident in forming elixirs even if he did not use elixirs such as Dust Falling Pills.
In this way, Luo Hong arranged a full schedule of cultivation for himself every day, spent every day to the fullest, and practiced for more than thirty years without caring about worldly affairs!
Finally one day, a blue light flew from the wooden house to the sky above the island. Luo Hong, who had already condensed the golden elixir and had reached the peak of early elixir formation, turned the array disk and stopped the Five Evil Spirit Gathering Array.
"Haha, the golden elixir is ready, I should go back."
Luo Hong's face is much more mature than it was thirty years ago, and the childishness of youth is no longer visible in him.
The process of forming the elixir was very smooth and the completion went according to his vision.
Ten years ago, Luo Hong relied on continuous purification of mana to increase the mana capacity of his Dantian to 130,000. At that time, he felt that his mana was beginning to solidify.
At the same time, Luo Hong also cultivated his soul to the three-evolution realm by refining the Heavenly Demon Pill.
Luo Hong, who felt that the time was ripe, immediately began to form elixirs, and the process felt quite natural.
Without much effort, Luo Hong condensed the liquid mana in his dantian into a golden elixir the size of a thumb, breaking through to the elixir formation stage in one fell swoop!
After that, Luo Hong spent another ten years improving his cultivation and refining the skull's life-threatening claws into his magic weapon. It was not until he encountered a bottleneck again that he ended the retreat.
There were seven people in Luo Hong's group when they arrived on the island, but only Luo Hong was left when they left the island. He didn't take out his spirit boat and just relied on his own speed to fly.
Luo Hong felt that his speed was much higher than before, and excitement gradually emerged in his heart.
After forming the elixir, not only did the cultivators' magical powers become much more powerful, but their lifespans also increased to five to six hundred years, truly widening the gap between them and ordinary people.
On the way to Monster Island, although Luo Hong was alone this time, he never encountered another murderous person.
No matter where they are, there are only a handful of monks in the Dan-Jie stage. If you encounter a Dan-Jie monk on the vast sea, killing people and seizing treasures, the chances are pitifully low.
After flying away at such high speed for a month, Luo Hong's consciousness suddenly burst into a demonic aura. Judging from the aura, it should be a level five demonic beast.
The fifth-level demon beast is equivalent to a monk in the early stage of elixir formation. There is demon elixir in the body, which is of great value. Luo Hong immediately stopped escaping the light and hesitated.
Although Luo Hong's cultivation level is no longer at the stage of forming pills, he still doesn't have the magic weapon to take advantage of it. It may be difficult to deal with the fifth-level monsters with just the life-killing claws.
But when asked to give up and leave, he was reluctant to part with the windfall that came to his door.
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Hong decided to rely on his own consciousness and observe outside the demon's sensing range to see what kind of demon it was before deciding whether to take action.
Ten miles away, a pitch-black monster cloud gathered on the sea. A giant sea crab with a length of more than ten feet, with ferocious bone spurs all over its body, and four pairs of scarlet eyes on its head was chasing a group of people with its giant claws.
monk.
This monster looks very much like the common second-level monster, the Bone Crab, but it is extremely rare to grow to such a large size.
Despite its thick carapace, the Bone Crab's movements are very flexible, and even Foundation Stage monks cannot dodge when its giant claws swing rapidly.
Among the people who were running for their lives, a male Foundation-Building cultivator fell behind. He was hit on the head by the giant claws of the Bone Crab, and his protective spirit shield disappeared like bubbles, and his whole body instantly turned into mince.
The bone-crushing crab opened its mouth and sucked in, swallowing the seawater covered with foamy meat into its belly.
When the others saw this, they used all their strength to escape. However, although the escape speed of the Scary Bone Crab was slow among the fifth-level monsters, its endurance was much stronger than that of the foundation-building monks.
If this continues, the remaining monks will be devoured by it sooner or later!
"No, we have to escape separately!"
"How to escape separately! This demon has covered us with demon clouds and confused our consciousness. If we gather together, we can still compare each other and identify the direction. Once we are alone, I am afraid that we will be sent to the mouth of this demon by itself.
!”
A male cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building shouted in a broken voice.
