Chapter eight hundred and seventy-third the rare elixir
In the life of a monk, elixir is an indispensable thing. It can be seen that the alchemy weapon formation is the mainstream profession in the world of cultivating immortals, and the alchemist is the first among the hundreds of arts in cultivating immortals.
Among casual cultivators, there was once a trend of ascetic monks. This ascetic monk was not the ascetic monk today. Instead, he advocated that monks should not take any pills, rely entirely on themselves to absorb the profound energy of heaven and earth, understand the way of heaven, and advance.
It is preached that this method is the purest method of cultivating immortals. The profound energy is pure, the foundation is solid, and the combat effectiveness is often three points stronger than those who take pills.
This trend of thought was once very popular and attracted the worship of many monks. However, within a few years, this trend of thought disappeared without a trace. It is true that this kind of ascetic monks have pure Xuanqi and a solid foundation. It is easier to break through the ranks and has better combat effectiveness.
They are also stronger, but these monks are still eliminated by the mainstream world of immortality.
Let's make an assumption. Two people with the same spiritual root qualifications, understanding and opportunity, one takes the elixir and the other simply practices hard. A hundred years later, the one who took the elixir is already in the Daogang stage, and the one who didn't take it has just broken through the Zifu. Even this
No matter how powerful Zifu is, can it really compare to Daogang?
Another issue is longevity. Without the blessing of elixirs, how many people can break through an entire class before their longevity is exhausted?
Therefore, the thoughts of ascetic monks can only have some market among poor casual cultivators. Any monks who have the conditions must swallow elixirs to speed up their cultivation. This is why all sects in the world of immortality have to plant a large number of elixirs.
.
However, at this time, Nanzhou had lost more than half of its territory, and 70% to 80% of the monks were mobilized to participate in the war. A large number of elixirs were refined into healing elixirs, so elixirs to promote cultivation became in short supply.
In previous wars, Southern Continent could rely on gains from Central Continent for support. Now that the spoils of war have been consumed, the gap has become huge.
There are more than two million people in Nanzhou who have been fighting with Lin Xiao for more than ten years. Among them are a large number of monks who open and condensate pulses. The total life span of these people is less than a hundred years. The time of more than ten years is very important to them. If
If you don't give them resources and let them advance, there will definitely be problems.
"What is the status of recruiting in various countries and sects?"
Lin Xiao thought for a moment and said, the resources controlled by the Southern Continent Alliance now come from three aspects. The first is the gains from Central Continent, including subsequent income from Lingmu City and the like. The second is the income and battlefields from unclaimed lands such as Tianyong City.
The third thing to gain is to recruit resources from various countries and sects.
The third point is the biggest one. Currently, there are more than 60 countries in Southern Continent that have not been completely lost, and more than 40 countries have not been invaded by any means. Therefore, these more than 40 countries must pay a large amount of resources as military expenses.
This is a compulsory recruitment.
"It's not going well. People have selfish motives. They are all responsible for their own disciples and are not willing to hand over too many elixirs. Most of them use some spiritual rice to fill up the amount."
"It seems that you came to me today just to ask me to solve this problem, right?"
"Yes, more and more monks are coming to support from Central Continent. Most of them are free mercenaries. They exchange a large amount of resources every day. This is difficult for us monks from South Continent to accept. According to the current inventory
, we can still support it for three months at most.”
"Then what do you think of the stocks in these safe countries north of Qi?"
"If it can be squeezed out, it can last for two or three years, no problem."
"I understand. Then I will order the deployment of high-level alchemists to refine a batch of high-level cultivation-enhancing elixirs and hand them over to you. You will pay a premium of three to five times and exchange resources with them. If it is not enough, we will
Some of the high-level alchemy weapon array inheritance among the trophies were returned to them. I think they are smart people and should know how to do it."
Lin Xiao nodded. Lin Xiao was treating you with courtesy first, exchanging resources with you, and it was something you urgently needed. If you are not smart enough, then don’t blame Lin Xiao for committing the crime. You have to be responsible for your own family, but Lin Xiao was
The entire Nanzhou is responsible. If the front line of defense collapses, then everyone will finish the game together.
"Yes, Leader Lin, I will send someone to convince them."
"What else is going on?"
"Nothing else for now"
"Then you go down and rest."
"good"
Wanjuu stood up and said goodbye. With Lin Xiao's support, she was confident that she could squeeze out the resources of those sects. If she didn't want to, she had plenty of ways to deal with them. Wanjuu was the ancestor of the overlord sect of the Song Dynasty. This kind of
There is no shortage of means at all.
Lin Xiao continued to stare at the map of the world of immortality, and soon after, he invited Zhuo Lin, Li Yuanzun, and Li Chaoxian.
"Lin Xiao, what are you asking us to do? There is no shortage of people on the front line."
"Senior Li, don't be anxious, I am not short of this moment and a half. I invite you here today, naturally it is for a big event. Has Senior Li discovered the common characteristics of the three of you?"
"Shouyuan?"
Li Yuanzun frowned. The only thing the three of them had in common was that they were running out of life. Although immortal cultivators did not shy away from life and death, it was still a little uncomfortable to be discussed.
"That's right, the three of them don't have much longevity left. The one with the least longevity should be fellow Taoist Li Chaoxian."
"Lin Xiao, what do you want to say? I know you are young and promising, so there is no need to do this."
Li Chaoxian was very unhappy. When he met Lin Xiao, he was still in the spiritual stage. Now the juniors are on par with him, and their status in the world of immortality is much higher than him.
"In terms of seniority, I still have to call you senior. Lin has no other intentions. I came to you today because I want to discuss an issue. You have heard of reincarnation. Of course, perhaps the word "reincarnation" is more accurate."
"Of course I have heard of reincarnation, but the Netherworld is too mysterious. The treasures of reincarnation are extremely rare. Since ancient times, very few people can be reincarnated. Even in Kunlun, it takes hundreds of thousands of years to have a chance."
Zhuo Lin shook his head and said, reincarnation is not a secret to Kunlun. Kunlun has such a treasure, but it takes hundreds of thousands of years to have an opportunity. He was born at the wrong time and did not encounter this opportunity.
"The Li family's heritage is a bit weak. In history, only one ancestor encountered this kind of treasure and lived a second life, but unfortunately, no heritage was left behind."
Li Yuanzun also replied that the Li family had been closed for too long and rarely went out. Naturally, it was not as good as Kunlun, who was the dominant figure in the world of immortality. Their background in this aspect was much worse.
"Lin Xiao, you never say something without reason. Don't tell me, do you have a way to reverse our calamity?"
"Fellow Daoist Li still understands me. Lin really has this treasure."
"really?"
"Lin Xiao, don't be joking."
When Li Yuanzun and Zhuo Lin heard this, their eyes widened immediately and they stared at Lin Xiao. This joke was not allowed, it would kill people. I know how many people would be tempted by this treasure.
"Have you heard of Netherworld Flower?"
"Do you have a ghost flower?"
“Take it and see”
"Ancestor Yuan Zun, don't get excited, we just want to talk like this."
"If you can bring out the Nether Flower, the Li family is willing to give you anything. Don't you want the Heavenly Book? What if I lend you three thousand years?"
Li Yuanzun said coldly that if he could reverse the calamity, he would be able to recover his cultivation within a thousand years. By then, the Li family would have two more supreme ancestors. Maybe Li Muxue could also become the supreme ancestor. That would be three. Three.
This supreme ancestor at his peak was enough to make the Li family famous for tens of thousands of years. Even Kunlun could not suppress the Li family's glory.
"Fellow Daoist Li, why are you so anxious? The Li family can set a price, but I, Kunlun, can't do it. Lin Xiao, even though the Li family has been around longer than Kunlun, in terms of foundation, it can't compare to me, Kunlun. Humph, the Li family has the Book of Heaven, but I, Kunlun, don't have it?"
"
"Zhuo Lin, what do you mean?"
"Literally, who doesn't want to live one more life? With fifty thousand more years, everyone can try every means to try to ascend, who doesn't want to"
Zhuo Lin is not polite at all. Kunlun is not afraid of the Li family. It is a joke that Kunlun cannot afford the price that the Li family can offer.
Although the road to the Human Emperor is the easiest way to ascend, there are no other ways. The reason why everyone can't do it is because there is not enough time. If you have 50,000 more years to prepare, maybe it will be done.
Regarding his own path to becoming an immortal, Zhuo Lin will not make any concessions.
"Seniors, there's no need to be like this. Let's talk first. Lin won't be able to use this for the time being, so he has to pay for it after all."
Lin Xiao smiled indifferently, and then asked them many questions, including the issue of reincarnation and body seizing. The three of them were almost 100,000 years old in total. Their knowledge was not comparable to that of Lin Xiao. Many things were made by Lin Xiao.
Laughter is refreshing.
Regarding reincarnation, the world of immortality has existed since ancient times. In fact, it is possible not to use treasures such as Nether Flowers, but there is no guarantee that one's memory can be passed down. Without memory, it is not considered reincarnation, which is equivalent to a new life.
It means nothing.
However, there are other methods available, such as sealing memories, etc., but they are not reliable and require luck. The most reliable method is to use treasures such as Nether Flowers.
As for seizing one's body, it was something that had never happened in the world of immortality. This surprised Lin Xiao, because in Lin Xiao's memory, in some fantasy stories, seizing one's body was a standard noun, including his own.
origin.
Regarding this point, Li Yuanzun also explained that when a monk reaches the level of the Divine Void Stage, his soul has been nourished and has become extremely powerful. Even if the physical body is destroyed, the soul can survive for a long time. If he does not want to go to the netherworld to practice the path of ghosts and immortals, he can
It can defeat the souls of low-level monks and occupy their physical bodies.
However, this kind of occupation is short-term, because there is a degree of compatibility between the body and the soul. No one knows what the standard of this compatibility is. Anyway, many such things have happened in history. High-level monks have occupied the bodies of low-level monks.
But they don't live long, it can be as short as three to five days, as long as three to five years. The physical body will inevitably fester, and the soul cannot escape and will be annihilated along with the physical body.
As Lin Xiao said, occupying the physical body to seize the body, and then occupying the magpie's nest has never happened in the world of immortality. At least they have not seen records in classics or heard of it. It is simply unbelievable.
However, Li Yuanzun's words also made Lin Xiao feel a little distracted. If there was no Suo Shen in this world, then where did he come from? Is he Lin Xiao in this world or Lin Xiao in that world?
