"At least twenty years have passed. If the foundation cannot be completed within forty years, this drop of pure chalcedony will be useless to me..."
Bai Zichen carefully put away the jade bottle. Judging from the current progress, he would have no problem in advancing to the later stage of foundation construction in forty years.
But the step to complete foundation building is not so easy to take.
According to the several volumes of predecessors' elixir-forming notes on the third floor of the Chuan Gong Hall, the last step before elixir-forming is not only a breakthrough to the peak level of magic power, but also related to the theory of elixirs.
Not all monks have to clarify the elixir theory before forming the elixir. More people have to slowly perfect their path during the long elixir-forming period after achieving the elixir.
Once you have determined the path that is most suitable for you, you will make a decision about elixirs and finally open the level of transforming into an infant.
However, there are few monks who can generate the alchemy theory before forming the elixir, but rarely fail to form the elixir.
More importantly, after entering the elixir formation stage, the road ahead is clear because the path is clear.
The cultivation speed is much faster than that of the alchemy monks who are still groping forward, and the prospects are broader.
The most recent successful example is Patriarch Ge Cang.
For example, Wei Dao also stayed for many years after peaking in the later stage of foundation building.
It is both a polishing of mana and a breakthrough in bottlenecks.
At the same time, I am also considering my own elixir theory.
"It's not that you can't turn into a baby if you don't have the elixir. It's just that you have to think clearly about the path you want to take in the future to avoid detours later..."
Bai Zichen calmed down his worries and thoughts, this was not the issue that needed to be considered at the moment.
If you can build a complete foundation within forty years, it is best to use this drop of Qingling Chalcedony, and everything will come naturally.
If you miss one step, you will have to sell the Qingling Chalcedony a few years in advance.
If the sect has suitable candidates, it will be handed over to the sect in exchange for contribution points.
If there is no one in the sect, just find a seller.
Do pill-forming spiritual objects still have to worry about sales?
As for this blood crystal core, it has been sacrificed and refined by Mo Changzhi. It has no other use and can only be used as a pure storage prop.
"But the space is only one foot square, and I don't have the habit of digging a hole in my body, so forget it..."
Storage props cannot be used superimposed on each other, such as a storage bag inside a storage bag.
It will cause void chaos and both storage spaces will collapse.
Therefore, the refined blood crystal core can no longer be placed in the storage bag.
I thought of being like Mo Changzhi, who had a hole in his chest hidden between his sternum.
Bai Zichen shuddered and gave up the idea.
"On the other hand, my unrefined blood crystal core, if I can get the method to refine it, it can be used as the prototype of my own realm in the future..."
Opening up a realm and forming a small world is the exclusive magical power of Yuanying Zhenjun.
After evolving to the later stage, the foundation of the four directions is laid down, and one side of the heaven and earth is formed according to the rules, which is the cave sky.
And without its owner, the cave sky has not yet been torn apart and collapsed by the power of the void, and it has become a secret realm that drives countless people crazy in the world of immortality.
"As for this piece of animal skin, it should come from the third-level demon king..."
Bai Zichen took out a piece of animal skin that was three feet long and one foot wide, and there was still strong waves emanating from it.
"There are two great opportunities in Black Mountain. This article can only be read by the head of the Mo family and cannot be passed on to other people..."
On the animal skin, there is a brown text, which is scrawled and often smeared.
It seems to have been written in blood in a hurry, and you can feel the panic and nervousness of the writer at that time.
The sentence at the beginning is completely different from the font of the following content, so it was obviously added by later generations.
Bai Zichen read the content on the animal skin and didn't move for a long time.
There are not many words here, but it contains a lot of content that needs to be digested.
"The Fire Phoenix Mo family is originally a native family of Black Mountain. They settled here earlier than when Qingfengmen opened up the Black Mountain... The origin of this bloodline makes people speechless."
According to what Beast Skin said, the Mo family were originally just ordinary hunters near the Black Mountains. A woman in the family went to the mountains to collect firewood and became pregnant for no apparent reason after returning.
Give birth to a son with red eyes and infinite strength.
Later, he was noticed by a passing monk, who passed down a volume of cultivation techniques, and started on the path to immortality, gradually becoming the Fire Phoenix Mo Family.
The first ancestor of the Mo family to have bloodline suddenly went crazy in his later years and lost his mind.
After injuring several tribesmen, he ran deep into the Black Mountain.
It wasn't until twenty years later that I came back from the Black Mountains, wrote this animal skin, and then passed away.
The first opportunity came when he said that there was a secret realm left by ancient immortals in the Black Mountain. He drew the earth's surface with a few hasty strokes and made a big circle, saying that the secret realm was in the circle.
However, to enter the secret realm, it needs to be opened by someone who is destined to do so, and entry cannot be forced.
Bai Zichen glanced at the pattern and found that the circled area was from Qingfengmen Mountain Gate to Feiyue Lake.
The ancestors of the Mo family actually knew the existence of the ancient secret realm?
Did it happen by chance, or did someone tell me about it?
Bai Zichen was shocked. The ancient secret realm he and Lu Song entered was in this area.
How could there be such a coincidence? There are two ancient secret realms in a mountain range.
The ancestors of the Mo family actually knew this news thousands of years ago, but they just didn't have Lu Song's good luck.
Without the black jade ring, even if you are near an ancient secret realm, you still cannot enter.
There are many mysteries in this, mysterious and unpredictable.
However, the ancient secret realm collapsed and disappeared, and the inherited treasures inside fell into his hands, and the Qiyao spirit body became Lu Song.
You don’t need to think too much about this one.
In the deepest part of the Black Mountain, there is a sleeping fourth-level monster!
The second opportunity was to draw a clearer goal, saying that there was a Qingluan who was accumulating strength and sleeping in the earthly fire.
As a great demon with a trace of the blood of a mythical beast, Qingluan has a long life.
And there is a magical power that can reduce the vitality to nothing, fall into an irreversible sleep to recover from serious injuries, or draw the energy from the earth fire to go further.
This sleeping process often takes thousands of years as a unit.
Qingluan was sleeping completely unaware of the outside world. The second opportunity pointed on the animal skin was none other than Qingluan himself!
If you can kill a fourth-level monster, you will indeed gain a treasure house.
Its body, every drop of blood, every piece of flesh, every feather... are all priceless treasures.
Not to mention that the residence of a fourth-level demon must be home to countless strange flowers and spiritual plants.
"Hiss...the ancestors of the Mo family can even know such secrets. Could it be that they are really the direct descendants of that Qingluan..."
Bai Zichen looked stunned. It was not impossible for a fourth-level demon to transform into a human form and have offspring with humans.
There is a half-demon tribe in the world of immortality, which is a half-demon race.
One of the two great opportunities recorded in the animal skin has already been taken into his pocket.
Secondly, with his strength, and even with the strength of the entire Qingfeng Sect, there is no need to think about it.
It can be roughly judged from the scrawled map that Qingluan's residence is thousands of miles deeper than Feiyue Lake, reaching the true core of the Black Mountain Mountains.
Not to mention Qingluan, the light will disturb countless third-level demon kings along the way.
Besides, this is all news from a thousand years ago. Maybe you might rush to the lair of the fourth-level demon and face a Qingluan who has awakened and advanced.
At that time, with a wave of wings, the demon-slaying team will be transformed into a food delivery team.
"Excitement in vain can indeed be regarded as two great opportunities... Unfortunately, either I have already succeeded or I am unable to do so."
Bai Zichen put the animal skins away. Although he did not directly gain anything, the information on the animal skins opened his eyes and broadened his knowledge.
At the very least, it is clear that there is a fourth-order monster deep in the Black Mountain.
And we know the approximate location of its nest.
"There is such a big demon that conflicts with my goal... I want to open up my spiritual veins and kill many third-level demon kings. Then Qingluan will definitely be attracted..."
Bai Zichen was a little scared, but fortunately he learned this information in advance.
After he forms the elixir, he will definitely kill many third-level demon kings and open up spiritual veins for the sect.
If he didn't know this news, he would probably hit Qingluan's lair in one big killing spree.
"Killing Mo Changzhi is my first mission after becoming the prison elder... Within a few years, there should be no missions coming to me again."
Bai Zichen's eyelids drooped, what he lacked now was time.
If there were tens or hundreds of years of stability, many troubles would be solved.
I really wish I had the legendary Eternal Light secret realm, with different time ratios, so that I can quickly improve my cultivation level.
In the midst of emotion, he had already sat cross-legged on the futon and started practicing.
In this chaotic situation, foreign enemies are always pressing on the situation, and only one's own cultivation is the most fundamental.
"According to Mo Changzhi's memory, Zhong Ge is cautious in his actions, and does not have the arrogance and wantonness of a demonic monk... He always makes plans before taking action. He will not take action unless everything is properly arranged."
"The Righteous Alliance is eyeing the Blood Demon Sect. Now that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has intervened, they also have the idea of killing the tiger to kill them all. In less than three to five years, they should be unable to escape."
With this thought, Bai Zichen concentrated on practicing, ignoring the chaos in the outside world, and the quiet room was filled with red light.
…
There had been several blizzards in succession, covering the paths in the mountains, and the branches of tall pine trees bent downwards under the weight of thick snow.
The two figures were affixed with concealment charms and hid among the trees, blending into the environment.
The effect of the invisibility talisman is not true invisibility, nor is it something that a first-level talisman can achieve. It just fades the form and reduces the aura, making it difficult for people to detect it.
"Junior sister Huo, do you feel cold... Senior brother, here is a piece of warm jade. When you wear it, it will feel like spring all year round. How about I lend it to you?"
The young monk in white robe said with a flattering tone.
"Senior brother, focus more...don't let the ghost spirit sect monks bully you into a hundred feet without even reacting."
He described Junior Sister Huo as charming and youthful, and her dissatisfied tone still contained a sense of coquettishness.
The white-robed monk looked at Junior Sister Huo's exquisite profile and was so dazzled that he forgot to reply.
Huo Feiyan snorted coldly and ignored it, focusing on herself and monitoring the front.
Five years ago, the five great masters of the Ghost Spirit Sect mobilized nearly 10,000 people to fight against Heishan County.
It is said that he got the Blood Demon Sect's promise to look after the backyard for him. Unexpectedly, other sects took advantage of the situation and occupied the Ghost Spirit Sect's base camp.
As soon as the war started, Qingfeng Sect suffered a series of defeats and lost control of all mortal cities.
Because Patriarch Ge Cang, the sect’s number one fighting force, never showed up from the beginning to the end.
How could Patriarch Yang alone deal with the five Dan-jie masters from the Ghost Spirit Sect, and he would naturally lose consecutive battles.
Soon they gave up all their strongholds outside Montenegro and withdrew into Montenegro.
Some of the many immortal cultivating families moved into the mountain gate, some died in the battle, and some directly took refuge in the Ghost Spirit Gate.
The situation suddenly felt like it was back to two hundred years ago, when the Qingfeng Sect was in its most difficult years, and could only rely on the sect's formation to barely support itself.
