Just when Xu Dao was preparing to stay peacefully in the Baimaofeng Cave for three years, before the stipulated time, the formations in the cave suddenly changed. It seemed that someone was preparing to open the formations and walk into the cave.
Xu Dao was practicing in the cracks of the cave. As soon as he noticed it, he had no time to think too much and had to quickly stop his practice and return to the ground.
Not long after, the formation at the entrance and exit of the Wind Cave was opened, the stone wall changed, and a staircase slowly appeared. There was a person standing on the entrance steps.
Xu Dao happened to be standing in the cave with his leisure time. When he saw the person coming, he shouted in surprise: "Fellow Taoist Dragon?"
The person who came was none other than Taoist disciple Long Li'er who sent him into Baimaofeng Cave that day. When this person saw Xu Dao, he quickly bowed his head and called out: "Brother Xu, long time no see!"
Long Li'er looked at Xu Dao, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he said: "Look at Brother Xu's calm temperament, he must have gained something in the past two years!"
The spiritual veins in Baimao Feng Cave were secretly connected, and Xu Tao used it to practice. His cultivation improved rapidly, and his Tao practice had already exceeded ten years. He only needed to practice another method of swallowing and swallowing the sun essence, and refined the talisman.
Can be promoted to the middle stage of Qi refining!
But Xu Dao did not let his true cultivation level be revealed. He used the breath-condensing jade hook to only show his nine-year Taoism to the outside world, which was almost the same as when he first entered the cave.
Even so, Xu Dao's aura and temperament were much more condensed than before he entered the cave, and they couldn't be the same.
In Long Li'er's eyes, although Xu Dao's cultivation level has not increased much, his mysterious temperament cannot be underestimated.
This made Long Li'er shocked for a moment, and he thought to himself in a hurry: "I have only heard that the Baimao Wind Cave tortures people, but I have never heard that it can train people. It seems that Xu Tao is really not an ordinary person! He must make good friends."
"As expected of fellow Taoist Xu, he can still practice meditation in the Baimaofeng Cave." Long Li'er immediately flattered him. He paused and then said with a smile: "But Brother Xu is lucky, he doesn't have to stay in this ghost place anymore!
"
When Xu Dao heard this, he already had a guess in his mind. Most likely it was Taoist disciple Mo Wen who had hinted to him that something big was going on at White Bone Temple, and even Taoist disciples like him who were in jail had to be released and driven.
However, he still suppressed his thoughts and said with a surprised look on his face: "Brother Long, what do you mean by this?"
"Hahaha!" Long Li'er laughed loudly and said, "Brother Xu, please come out first and talk while we walk!" The man extended his hand, turned sideways, and signaled Xu Dao to come out of the Baimaofeng Cave.
When Xu Dao saw it, he smiled, rolled up his sleeves, and strode out of the Wind Cave.
As soon as he came out of the Wind Cave, his figure became clear in Long Li'er's eyes.
Xu Dao stood tall and tall, with a sword box on his back and a huge gourd hanging on his waist. His face was still green and young. Maybe it was because he had been beaten by the evil wind for a year or two, but there was still a little trace in his eyes.
The vicissitudes of life are quite extraordinary.
Such an appearance of a young Taoist immediately made Long Li'er, who was short in stature and had an ordinary face, feel ashamed and envious.
Fortunately, Long Li'er was understanding and understanding, so he did not show any jealousy and opened his mouth to praise Xu Dao again.
The two of them were talking and laughing and walked out together.
After a few words, Xu Dao suddenly learned from Long Li'er that something big had happened in the White Bone Temple.
It turns out that the first round of reincarnation, that is, the Black Mountain Divine Banquet once every 60 years, is about to begin again. This time, the White Bone Temple is preparing to send out a large number of troops, sending out all the Taoist disciples in the temple.
Among them, those who went down the mountain were recalled, those who were punished were released, and everyone was mobilized together.
Xu Dao was somewhat familiar with the so-called "Black Mountain Divine Banquet", but he didn't know what it was about. After he asked carefully, Long Li'er revealed that it was a sacrifice for a tree demon.
This tree demon is entrenched on the Black Mountain, and its roots are spread all over the Black Mountain Mountains. Its cultivation level is astonishing, and it is rumored that it is at least the Golden Core realm.
It has existed for thousands of years, and it was once granted the title of "Heishan Mountain God". The so-called "Black Mountain God Banquet" is an act of worshiping the mountain god once every sixty years.
This matter was originally supposed to be carried out by the mortal court, but after the establishment of the Wu Kingdom, only one sacrifice was held by the public, and the rest were taken care of by the nearby White Bone Temple and other large and small forces.
The reason why White Bone Temple is keen to participate in this matter is because the entire Black Mountain is occupied by tree demons. It is a place of its own, and no monks can enter it on weekdays. Therefore, there are many spiritual medicines, spiritual beasts, and spiritual minerals in the mountain, and they are also scattered all over the mountain.
Spiritual Meridian is a blessed place for cultivating Taoism.
Only after the sixty-year sacrifice ceremony will the Black Mountain Dryad acquiesce to the entry of others to collect medicine, mine, and refine gas.
More importantly, the Black Mountain Dryad has a fruit, which happens to mature only once every sixty years. This fruit is known as the "immortality fruit". Taoists take it and can use the fruit to plant spiritual roots in the Yin God, thereby building a foundation and refining it.
The Qi realm breaks through to the foundation-building realm.
In previous years, at a Black Mountain Divine Banquet, the number of Immortal Ascension Fruits released by the Black Mountain Dryad was around twenty at most, which meant that it could help up to twenty Taoist disciples in the late stage of Qi refining to be promoted to the foundation-building realm.
Therefore, the more fruits a force obtains, the more foundation-building Taoist priests it can give birth to, and its strength will greatly increase.
However, although the Immortality Fruits all grow from the Black Mountain Dryad, the Dryad is huge and has many clones. They do not grow together, but are scattered throughout the Black Mountain.
In order to find the Immortal Fruit, the forces participating in the Black Mountain Divine Banquet will mobilize their sects to search the mountains as much as possible. Even if the Immortal Fruit cannot be found, the more people there are, the more spiritual materials and elixirs can be found, which will help the practice and the sect.
development of.
Of course, there are dangers when the disciples enter the Black Mountain. If you are not careful, you may anger the Black Mountain Dryad, causing all the disciples to die and leaving the door in circles.
However, this time the White Bone Temple obviously wanted to spend a lot of money and decided to send out all the Taoist disciples in the sect, leaving only a few to stay in the mountain and activate the mountain protection formation to wait for their return.
Listening to Long Li'er slowly saying these things, Xu Dao was surprised, and for a moment he thought about the word "immortality fruit" that the other party said.
The biggest difference between the Qi Refining Realm and the Foundation Establishment Realm lies in whether the Yin Shen is solidified or not.
After accumulating true energy three times during the Qi refining period, once the Taoist's true energy is sufficient and his soul is solidified, he can begin to try to condense the Yin God and cultivate the Yin God into various magical bodies.
Once the Dharma body is successfully cultivated, the Taoist's Yin spirit is initially solidified and is no longer a pure Yin ball. The magic power is also completely different from the Qi refining period and cannot be compared.
Among them, the realm of foundation building is also divided into three steps, namely establishing roots, condensing evil spirits, and refining gangs.
"Establishing roots" means that Taoists find the corresponding treasures of heaven and earth, refine them into the Yin God, and turn them into the bones and roots of the Yin God, and then build the framework of the Yin God's legal body, which can communicate with heaven and earth and comprehend nature.
Different heavenly materials and earthly treasures, visualize the bones produced by Dharma Gate. The roots and bones are different, but they all have a unified name - spiritual roots.
According to Xu Dao's knowledge, the White Bone Contemplation method can produce two kinds of spiritual roots, namely the White Bone Fine Gold Root and the Ice Muscle Jade Bone Root, which can enable Taoist priests to communicate with the lunar stars and enjoy the spiritual energy of the moon.
Xu Dao did not know the specific names of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures needed for these two spiritual roots, but he knew that these things must be very demanding, because Taoist disciples who have completed the Qi refining period in the temple often travel far away from the mountains in order to search for materials.
Ten years, decades count.
So far, Xu Dao has not heard of anyone successfully finding materials and returning to the temple to build a foundation.
This shows how difficult it is.
But now that the "immortality fruit" has appeared, Taoists nearby are excited. It must be that this thing can help Taoists directly cultivate their spiritual roots without having to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
