In the face of temptation, Lu Zhong always sticks to his heart.
In the end, he did not burden himself with a huge debt like other monks, and only exchanged his life force for a spiritual object.
This thing is called "Fu Liu Gulu".
Lu Zhong also didn't expect that he would encounter it here.
"There are so many encounters in life! After taking this ancient dew, maybe I can master the third ability to imitate the laws of space. Even if I can't... I can still know the future path."
To him, the deal was worth it.
He glanced at the treasure in the sky again.
Lu Zhong was still tempted, but although these treasures were good, they were very difficult to obtain, and he was unwilling to sign a life contract with Ming Longzun.
It's not just a whim.
It's just that his past life experience made him resist this.
"It's a pity that the recipe I wanted..."
Just when Lu Zhong thought of this, he saw a monk hanging something up. Judging from the name of the item, it was obviously a prescription for elixirs.
With a thought in his heart, he leaned over.
"I wonder what kind of elixir this is?"
"Li Xuan Dan...eighth-level elixir." The monk said in a high-pitched voice, and his eyes hidden under the veil looked at the person asking the price: "It's in the integration stage? It's not like you can't use this elixir.
, it was upgraded from the seventh-level Lixuan elixir to an eighth-level elixir through my hands. If the spiritual materials are used at a lower level, the resulting elixir will be a seventh-level elixir."
"Senior, can I allow this junior to have a look?"
"Haha, take it."
The man smiled nonchalantly, wiped the jade slip containing the prescription in his hand, hiding the key points, and then turned into a stream of light and flew out.
Lu Zhong took it and his spiritual consciousness was immersed in it.
Just as the other party said, the jade slip does contain "Li Xuan Dan".
The grade is not low, and the spiritual materials are quite simple.
Except for some elixirs that have requirements, most of the materials can be replaced with spiritual liquid, which can be regarded as a compromise due to scarce resources.
While its effectiveness is low, it has the advantage of being easy to refine.
Which one is better or worse is difficult to judge at the moment.
'It's a good thing...It's a pity that I can't be a human this time.'
With a look of regret on his face, Lu Zhong sent the jade slips back with both hands. At the same time, he calmly used the gray mist space to get a complete elixir recipe.
There is no way, there is nothing he can exchange for anymore.
"If you don't buy it, it's a waste of my time."
The monks all sighed, turned around and left.
But judging from his words, it was obvious that he didn't expect much this time. After all, the value of an eighth-level elixir recipe was not something that the combined body could bear.
With the mentality of giving it a try, it doesn’t matter if you fail.
Soon, the exchange meeting came to an end.
The method of returning is the same as when you came. All cultivators only need to activate their respective soul-gathering treasures to return to the place where they came.
...
Returning to Yujingtian, Lu Zhong took out everything one by one.
"I gained a lot from this exchange meeting!"
"Not only are there new elixir recipes, but we have also collected a lot of spiritual materials. Even the space law that I had no clue about before will also make progress due to Fuliugulu."
"In this way, Xiao Ling's trip to the world can be saved."
Just when Lu Zhong informed Ye Panyan of the decision, he also casually mentioned the appearance of Minglong Zun and the opponent's large demand for life energy.
To express his apology, he also revealed Li Xuan Dan.
This is not selfless.
Lu Zhong saw it very clearly and knew that the stronger the Taoist alliance was, the more places he could draw on its strength.
In essence, they are still cultivating their own power.
There is nothing wrong with being more generous for this reason.
At the same time, from Ye Panyan's mouth, Lu Zhong learned the possible reason why Minglong Zun needed life energy, which was to carry out a major milestone event on the path of cultivation that countless monks yearned for.
Ascend!
Ye Panyan couldn't explain why life energy was needed for ascension.
Just need it.
In the end, Ye Panyan only gave this reply.
Lu Zhong felt helpless about this, but being able to guess the possible reasons for free was actually quite good. It was better than asking Taiyin Patriarch to make another deal.
...
Harvest for digestion.
In the following days, Lu Zhong never stepped out of Yu Jingtian again.
About the Kongming stone marrow.
Since there are Celestial Craftsmen clan in the mountains and rivers, they are good at forging treasures, so spiritual materials that can be forged into immortal machines will naturally be handed over to monks of this lineage.
Lu Zhong himself started refining elixirs.
No matter how good the elixir is, no matter how rare it is, or how powerful it is, if it is not refined into an elixir and taken in the stomach, it is just like a decoration.
After refining the elixir, Lu Zhong began to retreat again.
Jade Jingtian.
Lu Zhong sat cross-legged in the quiet room, his whole body enveloped in a layer of dense spiritual energy. With his every breath and breath, the spiritual energy layer on his body was also pulsing rhythmically.
Suddenly, a huge suction force came.
All spiritual energy has dissipated.
At this time, Lu Zhong slowly opened his eyes.
"If you take one pill, your cultivation level will indeed increase a lot."
"However, if you take it frequently for such a long time, even if erysipelas does not develop in your body, you may develop drug resistance."
Thinking of this, he took out a glass jade bottle.
The thing in the bottle is naturally the Fuliu Gulu that was bought at a great price.
This object is a treasure that can be used to comprehend the laws of imitation. It is rightly known as the absolute treasure of Linghuan. Although the quantity is slightly small and it is difficult to achieve a perfect comprehension effect, Lu Zhong is still confident that he can use it to find it for himself.
Next direction.
Without hesitation, he poured it into his mouth.
There is a slight coolness in the entrance, with a hint of grassy fragrance, and then a strong bitterness. Fortunately, the spiritual liquid has already slipped down the throat and fallen into the abdomen.
Almost at the same time, Lu Zhong felt that there were many strange phenomena before his eyes.
He knew very well that what he saw were the fundamental rules for the operation of heaven and earth, which were things called "laws" that appeared in the form of hallucinations under the influence of medicine.
Although this was not the first time he saw it, Lu Zhong was still fascinated by this magnificent world.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly.
What he has to do now is to find the part that belongs to the law of space from this bizarre illusion, and get what he needs from it.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is not an easy task.
Because at this time, Lu Zhong had to fight against the interference of hallucinations and was distracted to find the target.
If it were not for the powerful soul of the monks in the integration stage, I am afraid that this extremely precious thing, Fuliugulu, is simply a hallucinogen, and may even be used as a poison.
Time passes minute by minute.
In the Jade Capital sky, it was so quiet that the only sound was Lu Zhong's breathing.
As before, the Qilin Fairy lay motionless at the door. Occasionally he raised his head and looked back, but then quickly turned back in boredom.
Only the little tail will sweep there silently.
Fairy spirits are not surprised by Lu Zhong's state of seclusion.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, he was little half a year old.
The effectiveness of Fuliugulu has long since dissipated.
Today, Lu Zhong is still in retreat, which shows that he has gained something from it, otherwise he would not have his eyes closed like this, as if trying to comprehend something.
Suddenly, a gray light diffused from his body.
It first twisted and deformed, then extended and expanded, but in an instant, it condensed into a gray cover.
"Space shield?"
Lu Zhong looked surprised and looked at the protective layer on his body.
He could clearly feel that this protective barrier looked similar to the dragon barrier, but there was a huge difference.
The dragon barrier is like a reservoir, which can only be broken if it is filled with attacks.
But now this method is like a layer of glass.
In the face of an opponent who cannot break through the space, this seemingly ordinary space shield can provide amazing protection. However, if you encounter an opponent who has a way to break it and masters one or more space methods, it will be quite powerful.
Fragile.
"However, if I combine the two, they will complement each other."
Lu Zhong smiled slightly and quickly thought of the correct way to use it. As long as the timing is good, the space shield may not be unable to be of great use.
Then, with a thought in his mind.
His figure disappeared, and an ink scroll spread out on the spot.
After entering Tianhou in Shanhe Cave, Lu Zhong went straight to the furnace. It happened that he was at the end of refining the weapon, and a precious ring like a moonlight was quietly suspended in the center of the furnace.
All around, the monks from the Tianjiang Clan collapsed, and all of them looked like they were in collapse.
"My subordinate has lived up to his mission and finally made the precious ring. Please ask the cave master to check it out!" With the support of the two people, the current patriarch of the Tianzhuang clan came over.
"well done!"
Lu Zhong was generous with rewards in return for the other party's performance.
As soon as he thought about it, the precious ring fell into his hand.
Since it had just been made not long ago, it was still warm at this moment, but this was not a problem for Lu Zhong. It only took a little magic power to lower it to the appropriate temperature.
Then he immersed his spiritual consciousness, and his face showed a happy look.
"This space... is bigger than I imagined. If we look at the size alone, it's probably comparable to some small blessed places."
"Such a precious ring can be called a magical device."
After playing with it for a while, Lu Zhong put it on his left hand with a very satisfied expression. He immediately forced out a drop of blood essence and successfully refined it.
In this way, he can carry a lot more items with him.
...
Time passes by inadvertently.
One year...ten years...hundred years!
This day.
Lu Zhong, who rarely left seclusion, was currently suspended at the highest point of the thirty-third heaven, looking at the sky above his head with a solemn expression.
Different from before.
The cool summer sky that should have been filled with scorching sun is now a scene of dusk. Although the sun is still hanging in the sky, it has become weak after being affected by the law of the underworld to stop vomiting, and only emits a weak light.
It has been more than half a century since this scene happened.
At first, it was just sunspots.
Now it has developed into a solar eclipse, and there are signs of annular eclipse.
With such a huge change, the order of the secular world is naturally in chaos, and mortals are destined to have no harvest. Even the world of immortal cultivation has been greatly affected. Many spiritual fields have become spiritually imbalanced, causing abnormalities in the growing spiritual plants.
Recently, Lu Zhong has been receiving reports frequently.
First, there was trouble caused by corpses and ghosts in various places in Luofu. The buried ancestors of various families suddenly pretended to be corpses. Later, demons also began to run rampant. These demons and ghosts were equally weird, and they immediately caused a lot of trouble.
The chaos in life and death is obviously caused by external forces.
This shows that Huang Quan Dao has changed the strategy they used in the past for this invasion. It is not the simple and crude style they used when they invaded Xiaoling Huanjie before, but changed it to the method of boiling frogs in warm water.
"Do you want to change the Linghuan world directly from the bottom?"
Lu Zhongzheng was thinking to himself, and suddenly noticed that the surrounding light had become dim. He raised his head and realized that the solar eclipse in the sky had entered the next stage.
Annular solar eclipse!
At this moment, a black stream flows down from the ring sun.
In the black stream, there are countless dense black shadows that are rapidly enlarging. If you look carefully, you can see ferocious ghosts approaching quickly across space.
Many monks in the city saw this scene clearly, with expressions of despair on their faces.
But at this moment.
“Buzz buzz—!”
A bright torch rose from the Luofu Immortal City.
It is so dazzling that it can be seen clearly even from hundreds of millions of miles away.
This is an attack signal, and the Luofu Guards will launch an attack on the Underworld Ghost Army. It is also an eye-catching beacon, which provides a possible option for the monks who have been invaded by the Underworld Dao and do not know where to go.
The sudden rise of the torch was like a shot in the arm.
Everyone who witnessed it was inspired.
Thump thump thump!
The underworld ghost army that successfully surrendered to the world was covered like a dark cloud.
There are many types of ghost armies, at least they start at the second level, and ghosts with considerable pill-forming strength are not uncommon at all.
More importantly, the number is less than millions.
Obviously, there is a space exit in the Luofu Domain, otherwise there should not be such a number.
Lu Zhong observed this ghost army from a distance and found that in addition to the human race, there were also many familiar faces, including the Stone Spirit Tribe, the Golden Spirit Tribe... Judging from this situation, there were only hundreds of tribes in the entire Xiaolinghuan Realm.
, were all converted into cannon fodder by Huang Quan Dao.
Although it is inhumane, it is definitely useful.
After all, in today's era, the way of heaven has already fallen.
Without the punishment of heavenly calamity hanging over your head, no matter how outrageous you do to people and gods, you don't have to worry about one day when you will suddenly die.
Lu Zhong withdrew his gaze and said to the Qilin Fairy beside him:
"let's start!"
He gave the order, and the fairy spirit began to operate the entire fortress.
The huge Luofu Fortress naturally not only has the Xuantian Formation and the Five Elements of Destruction Divine Light available, but when facing small-scale enemies, it can also use small magic formations to launch a fierce counterattack against the invading enemies.
These small magic circles absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and use them as energy supply. The fireballs and wind blades they emit can hurt even the Nascent Soul.
Rumble!
The sound of explosions was endless, and countless ghosts were blown into ashes before they even got close to Luofu.
But on the other side, the ghost army has spread.
For the monks who had not yet evacuated from the ground, a huge disaster would immediately strike.
Faced with such a powerful ghost army backed by Foundation-Building Pills, it goes without saying that the fate of those Foundation-Building Pill families would be annihilated in an instant.
Even the power of Nascent Soul's transformation into gods cannot be resisted for too long.
Such a mighty army swept away everything along the way mercilessly, and there would be Huangquan Dao monks accompanying the army to transform the corpses that were about to die.
Not long after, a new ghost stood up and joined.
However, before the ghost army could become arrogant for too long, a thunder sword fell from the sky.
The one who took action was naturally Lu Zhong.
As a monk in the late stage of fusion, his power is naturally devastating. The sword blade swept across a hundred miles of land in an instant, turning everything in its path into ashes.
Then the thunder sword flew through the air, turning into walls of thunder that spread in all directions.
