Subsequently, Wen Rensheng continued to imprison Zhang San and others.
Then it stayed closed.
10 years, 0 years...
While being imprisoned, he was learning from their mouths all kinds of knowledge in the cultivating society.
From basic cultivation techniques, to social forms, humanistic customs, cultural characteristics, craftsmanship and technology...
In short, he accepted all kinds of knowledge and sorted it out one by one.
At the same time, I continued to find people to practice the exercises they mentioned, and finally determined a set of basically correct methods.
It was only after Wen Rensheng began to practice practice that he tried hard.
If anything goes wrong, stop immediately and experiment a lot.
Anyway, he has plenty of time.
However, in his 40th year, the aging Zhang San suddenly told him something.
"I made one mistake and regretted it for a hundred years. When I look back, I am already a dying man."
"However, you don't have to be complacent. Do you think it will be safe if you keep hiding?"
"Those everlasting pine trees in the green mountains, every few years, are struck by lightning, blown by wind, bitten by insects, and chopped down..."
"In another five hundred years, a great catastrophe will occur in the entire world of cultivation."
"It's called the Golden Core Tribulation, and it's a cultivation calamity that cycles every thousand years."
"Even if you hide, you can't escape, because when the time comes, the Golden Pills will do everything possible to search for all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. They will also find you who have been missed!"
"Hahaha!"
"Even if you live for a few hundred more years, your efforts will be useless in the end, and you will still end up with the same fate as me!"
After Wen Rensheng heard this, he was not panicked.
He felt familiar as soon as he heard it.
This is similar to the 300-year cycle of cultivation in a mortal dynasty.
I didn’t expect that the world of cultivation also has a 1,000-year cycle.
It can only be said that these are the disadvantages of the small-scale peasant economy.
The economy of cultivating immortals has reached a peak, and if the cycle stops moving, it will burst.
He had read many history books before.
It’s not that Zhang San invented it out of thin air. Indeed, every thousand years, there will be records of various natural disasters in mortal dynasties.
However, these records are very fragmented, and many of them have been burned and banned.
Obviously the Immortal Sect doesn't want mortals to know too clearly.
However, given the technological level of mortals in this world, which is still in the feudal medieval period, events over 1,000 years ago are only vaguely recorded.
Then he asked: "Why is there a golden elixir disaster that occurs once every 1,000 years? What does it mean?"
"Haha, it's very simple. The lifespan of the golden elixir is about 1,000 years. Under normal circumstances, people who worship the Immortal Sect come in batches, and most of the people who can form the golden elixir appear in batches.
."
"Every thousand years, a group of golden elixirs die of old age. Before these golden elixirs die, they want to do their best."
"Isn't there still an ancestor of Yuanying?" Wen Rensheng asked casually.
"Huh, at this time, those ancestors in the Nascent Soul Stage will also hide themselves by default and not care about worldly affairs."
"Because a self-exploding golden elixir can harm their fundamental Nascent Soul."
"Under normal circumstances, a hundred golden elixirs cannot deal with a Nascent Soul Ancestor, but a golden elixir that has lived for a thousand years, coupled with self-destruction, is enough to make the Yuanying Ancestor retreat."
"Then what will those desperate Jindan people do?" Wen Rensheng asked again.
"You should know about this issue. What they did is the same as what I did before."
Zhang San said crazily, "Scarch everywhere, looking for all kinds of evil techniques, trying desperately to prolong life, regardless of everything, destroying humanity, eating their flesh and blood, replenishing their foundation..."
"At that time, precious medicines like yours will definitely be what the golden elixirs want most and want to snatch. You will die a hundred times more miserable than me!"
After Zhang San finished speaking, he tilted his head and died in the cage.
Silent and breathless.
A cultivator, a beginner, died in the hands of an ordinary, ordinary mortal.
Wen Rensheng understood.
There are still 00 years left.
It would be best for me to break through to the Golden Elixir stage.
If you can't break through, then you need to hide yourself deep underground like a treasure hiding itself.
Thank you to the earth for hiding so many treasures.
The ancients, under crude technical conditions, preserved many precious cultural relics for thousands of years and finally revealed them to the world.
He was indifferent to Zhang San's old age and death.
He just asked the other captured old casual cultivators.
They all said that this is a situation that will happen once in a thousand years.
However, the time is not fixed, it may be several decades earlier or several decades later.
Hearing what they said made Wen Rensheng even more convinced that it was true.
Because this is the same as the 300-year cycle rate. In fact, many dynasties are not so lucky and can last for 300 years.
Mostly due to my own efforts, it was less than a few decades and could be more than 300 years old. This was before the land was fully developed and it was the early dynasty.
For example, during the Xia, Shang, Zhou and Han dynasties, few subsequent dynasties were so lucky.
From this point of view, every sect will suffer from this thousand-year golden elixir calamity.
At that time, the sect will be reshuffled and resources will be reallocated.
Whichever golden elixir is crazy enough will have more say.
If anyone accepts his fate and wants to survive the last few decades, burdened by his family, reputation, and temperament, he will not be able to make trouble.
But those with deep obsessions definitely still occupy the majority.
Think about ordinary people. Most old people struggle as much as possible before death. In order to live for a few more months, they throw their entire life's accumulation into the ICU.
From this rule, we can know what the powerful golden elixir will do.
Will they be willing to wait for death and give their resources to future generations?
There will be people like that, but they will be few.
Wen Rensheng believed that more of them might be suppressed and banned in advance by Yuanying ancestors and young Jindans.
Keep them from going crazy.
Then the few who were not banned wandered out, which led to disaster.
After all, their magical power is so great that even if only 5% of the dying golden elixir escapes, it will cause a catastrophe.
Destroying is much easier than building.
A golden elixir is like a little walking mushroom.
Wen Rensheng also realized something.
He can't catch any more casual cultivators.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The more he catches, the higher his probability of making a mistake.
The easier it is for your identity as a human treasure to be spread.
After all, if you walk too much at night, you will eventually get hit.
The greater the likelihood of exposure.
He had long known the greatest danger to immortality.
That is force majeure factors such as meteorites, volcanoes, earthquakes, and wars.
Now what Wen Rensheng can avoid is war.
The most practical way to avoid war is to dig holes.
He decided to start digging a hole.
Still in the mountains, digging with your own hands.
If you dig ten meters in one year, you can dig five thousand meters in 2000.
A cave five thousand meters deep.
He believed that the Jindan Patriarch would not be able to see him underground even when he came.
He left everything behind, took the big lobster and found a rock mountain to live in.
Live and dig down at the same time.
This will prevent flooding.
Will magma be dug under five thousand meters?
Probably not.
He had carefully read some geological miscellaneous notes about this world, and found that the magma formations were also very deep.
Then his daily life became fixed.
Practice every day, dig holes, store water, food, dried vegetables...
He practiced Changchun Gong.
After 0 years.
Finally got started.
It was really not easy, it took almost 400 years.
Only then did he begin to cultivate to the level of Qi refining.
This speed may scare a lot of people.
But it doesn't matter.
Some people have never cultivated to immortality in several lifetimes.
So Wen Rensheng didn't care at all.
He then casually explained the exercises he had compiled and practiced to the big lobster in front of him.
What left him speechless was that it only took three days for Big Lobster to reach the first level of cultivation.
Three layers for three months.
There is no one who has learned a magical power by himself: the art of contraction.
It can transform its body into the size of a scorpion or the size of a millstone.
Wen Rensheng didn't feel depressed at all.
I didn’t feel that I was inferior to a shrimp.
Because he had known that this shrimp had supernatural powers, as it was a turtle a long time ago...
"Big lobster, can you cook?"
On this day, Wen Rensheng had just dug a half-meter-long cave and suddenly asked.
Mainly because he thought of the story of a snail girl.
The big lobster quietly got into the corner and lay down.
Forget it, it's better not to think about such good things.
It would be nice to at least have a companion who can always be with you.
After that, I just continued to practice, continue to dig holes, and store food.
In this way, one hundred years have passed, and two hundred years have passed...
The previous dynasty finally changed.
I heard that a plague came down and the royal family had no descendants.
Ordinarily, the Immortal Sect would not let this happen.
However, Xianmen didn't care.
Wen Rensheng guessed that it was probably related to dealing with the Golden Core Tribulation.
Immortals can't control themselves, so why should they care about what your mortal dynasty does?
So when the collateral families were competing for the throne, another family member came out with many talents, rose up through hard work, and was able to endure hardships and win the throne.
Then worship the previous immortal gate and make offerings as before.
The Immortal Sect didn't come out to take care of it either.
So it went on like this.
Some people say that the emperor will have many children.
But in fact, there were quite a few emperors who had no family.
It's okay if there are immortals intervening. Without immortals, it would be a simple feudal era.
In the feudal era, there were many emperors without children.
Xiaozong had to be allowed to succeed to the throne.
Jiajing of Ming Dynasty is the most famous one.
Wen Rensheng naturally avoided this dynastic turmoil.
And he has now cultivated to the third level of Qi Refining.
The potential of this Changchun Gong has reached its peak.
If he wants to break through to the third level, he has to find some more monks.
He thought about it and realized that there were still about a hundred years before the Golden Elixir Catastrophe.
It is better to be quiet than to move.
After all, he is a cultivator and can see that he is extraordinary.
Unless you have reached the Nascent Soul stage, you are not suitable to be exposed to the eyes of others.
His best solution now is to find a clone or make a puppet to act.
There is such a method, but it can only be practiced at the golden elixir stage.
One is that the materials are hard to find, and the other is that the soul needs to be cut.
In this way, you can cross distances and move remotely.
It is far from something that can be learned by practicing three levels.
The second way is to find an agent, a mortal, to help you act.
Teach the other party martial arts and let the other party catch the casual cultivators.
But mortals have ambitions.
As long as you want to control the other party, there will be resistance.
Just when Wen Rensheng was weighing the pros and cons,
His luck has come.
this day.
The big lobster crawled back from outside.
It's a few kilometers up and down the road.
The lobster gave him an ancient book.
Wen Rensheng took a closer look and found that it was the complete copy of Changchun Gong.
And you can practice until you reach the golden elixir stage.
He looked at the lobster again.
For a moment he had nothing to say.
All right.
He has worked hard and planned for hundreds of years to obtain the cultivation method.
As a result, the other party brought it to him easily.
Isn't it fair?
It's actually quite fair.
You're just a wage earner, and you've worked hard all your life, but it's not enough for the boss to earn in one night.
Isn't this a common thing?
This is what happens most often in the real world.
The kind of thing that you think will take you hundreds of years to complete, and it will take others hundreds of years, is abnormal.
It's good now, Wen Rensheng can continue to practice in peace and contentment.
Every day has become very simple again.
Just dig holes to practice and store food.
Then talk to the big lobster.
The big lobster also enjoys this kind of life.
As of now, Wen Rensheng doesn't go out anymore.
He buried as much as he began to dig.
Only a closed space is left.
He is already a cultivator and can live on spiritual energy and no longer needs oxygen.
From the outside, no trace of the cave can be seen.
The food reserves are enough to last him for 100 years.
If I don’t go out, I’ll always practice in the cave.
Wen Rensheng felt that he was very powerful. Even if he was left alone like this, he didn't even feel the decline of his language function.
I didn't even feel like I was going crazy.
But most people definitely cannot do this.
Anyway, I just talk to the big lobster every day.
The big lobster has become quite smart now.
You can actually write on the ground.
Wen Rensheng asked it casually: "Do you want to go out?"
The big lobster wrote on the stone wall: "I don't want to."
"Well, we two really make a couple." Wen Rensheng said casually.
At this moment, the stone wall suddenly shook.
In the next few days, Wen Rensheng often heard various vibrations coming from the stone wall.
It seems that there should be a war going on outside.
Wen Rensheng didn't know the specific situation, so he continued to wait.
He just felt what was happening in the outside world through the shaking of the stone wall.
He believed that there might be no one alive like him.
It is indeed just living.
dark.
Fortunately, he is a practitioner and can read books with the help of the dim light radiated from the stone wall.
Every day outside of practicing and digging holes, I just read various ancient books.
Pick up all the music, chess, calligraphy and painting, poems, songs, couplets and so on...
Play games occasionally.
If you have nothing to do, teach Big Lobster, and the lost language skills are back.
Big Lobster is not interested in poems and songs, but he is quite interested in Ma Diao, Mahjong, and leaf tiles...
This made Wen Rensheng often teach it: "You must be a shrimp with high-end taste."
As he expected, the outside world did not affect him.
And he has been practicing from the first level of Qi Refining to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Then comes the tenth level of Qi training.
And then to Dzogchen.
Then he reached a bottleneck.
No matter how hard you practice, you can't make any progress.
It seems that you need to break through the foundation building before you can continue to practice.
He heard that breakthrough requires hard-boiled eggs.
In his situation, it would take about ten to eight hard-boiled eggs.
So Wen Rensheng looked for his own food and found hundreds of old salted eggs.
He thought for a while, there should be no distinction between salty and bland boiled eggs.
However, it seems to be very difficult to obtain boiled eggs from the outside world.
Of course it also has something to do with different worlds.
But it seems to be very difficult in this world.
But he saw that the big lobster did not seem to have such a bottleneck, and it broke through smoothly.
He ate his first hard-boiled egg and had no breakthrough.
I ate a second one, but it still didn't work.
Fifty years later, he took another one, but it still didn't work.
At this time, the giant lobster's cultivation level has reached the golden elixir stage again.
Good guy, this big lobster has become golden elixir after five hundred years.
He is still a perfect Qi refiner.
Wait, as long as you deceive yourself, you are still eighteen.
Then it's not useless.
Eighteen-year-old Yuan Cheng is an extremely talented person, and even Tianlinggen does not have such qualifications.
He suddenly had a feeling that the giant lobster's strength seemed to be increasing with time.
When the time comes, the big lobster will be able to achieve whatever strength it has.
A bit like the sleeping dragon bloodline of the West.
Sleep increases strength.
The difference between this and myself is a bit too big.
