In Shenyuanfang City, there is a restaurant for cultivators of immortality. Here there are often monk chefs who practice fire-attribute skills, cooking some monster meat and making delicious dishes for some cultivators of immortality.
With top-quality ingredients, these delicacies can even increase mana in small amounts.
The third floor of the restaurant is full of private rooms, which are only used by monks in the alchemy stage, or monks in the foundation building stage with extraordinary status. The ban on the private rooms is connected with the magic circle of Abyss Island, which can completely block the prying eyes of the alchemy stage monks.
At this time, in a private room by the window on the third floor, there was an old man with yellow hair and long eyebrows sitting in it. He looked carefully at the monks coming and going outside the window, but the main focus of his eyes was on a shop, "Treasure Equipment Pavilion".
"Humph, luckily I, Huang Mei, was cautious and settled in the Abyss City, and I accidentally discovered that the Treasure Pavilion was really created by the remnants of the Yueyang Sect, but I just don't know where they found the powerful man at the core formation stage.
of."
"Fortunately, the strong man in the pill formation stage rarely appears, and he is basically practicing in seclusion."
"However, the Yueyang Sect's former Chaoyang Peak Peak Master, Zhu Xiaofeng, has actually entered the pill-forming stage. If Lu Kun hadn't shown up, I would have found an opportunity to deal with him."
Huang Mei looked cautious, and said to himself: "This guy Lu Kun was able to withstand a blow from my magic weapon when he was in the early stage of foundation building. And according to Ni You'er, he became even more powerful in the middle stage of foundation building.
further."
"This guy is most likely a genius on the same level as Nie Wufeng back then. If he is left to enter the pill formation stage, he will definitely be in serious trouble."
Then Huang Mei showed a look of hatred and said: "If it weren't for this guy, how could I have stayed here for forty years? Although the spiritual energy here is abundant, allowing me to reach the peak of the early stage of pill formation, there is no demonic energy from the back of the sect.
There is no way to break through if we help each other.”
"The remnants of the Yueyang Sect should have other strongholds outside. The powerful flying magic weapon was destroyed by fellow Taoists from the Nine Nether Sect. However, Lu Kun and Qin Yushu are disciples of the Refining Peak. If it is repaired by them, I
Following the past is completely a warning."
The Huang-browed Taoist from the Demon Spirit Sect became extremely cautious after being escaped by Lu Kun and the others in the Land of Death. By chance decades ago, he discovered that remnants of the Yueyang Sect were haunting the Treasure Pavilion.
Always observing in secret.
The private room of this restaurant has been occupied by him all year round. Although he cannot use the power of his spiritual consciousness out of the window, as a monk in the alchemy stage, his eyesight is far stronger than that of ordinary people. He can see the forty people in Baoqi Pavilion.
The movements over the years have been clearly observed.
People like the Yueyang Sect go out alternately every five years, which made Huang Mei guess that they had a stronghold outside. In addition, he also discovered that every once in a while, a monk from the Treasure Pavilion would enter the Abyss Auction House.
On that day, the Abyss Auction House will have a powerful set of psychic magic weapons or fake magic weapons for auction. Huang Mei knows all of this clearly.
When he discovered all this, he was ready to take action one by one when these people were alone. Even though Zhu Xiaofeng had the cultivation level of the early stage of pill formation, he was still far behind the veteran monks like Huang Mei who were in the early stage of pill formation.
But when he found that Lu Kun never showed up, he still held back.
Then Huang Mei reported the situation here to the sect, and his former senior brother immediately arranged for two monks in the alchemy stage to help him, asking him to eradicate the root cause and bring back the psychic puppetry technique.
"Lu Kun! Haha, you finally showed up." Huang Mei, who was thinking in his mind, suddenly saw five figures walking towards the Treasure Pavilion. He had seen the other four people before.
There was only one burly figure that he had never seen before. Although the face of this burly man had changed a bit, Huang Mei was sure that this person was Lu Kun.
"Forty years, I have not waited in vain. As long as I defeat them this time and obtain the psychic puppet technique, my uncle will give me a Demonic Essence Pill as a reward. Coupled with the demonic energy from the back mountain, I will enter
The chance of forming a pill in the middle stage is greatly increased."
After Huang Mei confirmed Lu Kun's figure, she stopped looking and immediately took out a mirror-like magic weapon from the storage bag. The light flashed in her hand, as if she was conveying a message to someone.
…
In the Baoqi Pavilion, except for Pan Yan, the first-generation disciples of physical cultivation were all in the backyard, looking at Lu Kun very excitedly. Lu Kun's powerful magic made them look forward to the future.
With twice as much mana as ordinary Foundation-Building Dzogchen cultivators, Lu Kun could easily defeat ordinary Foundation-Building Dzogchen cultivators with the use of thunder-attribute spells and pseudo-magic weapons driven by his deep mana, even if he didn't use physical fighting methods.
What's more, the magic power of physical cultivation is very pure because it is not induced by pills, and the power of Lu Kun's spiritual consciousness has reached the level of the pill formation stage. These disciples even think that Lu Kun at this time is nothing like the ordinary early stage monks of pill formation.
respectively.
Lu Kun looked at the expressions of these disciples and said in a deep voice: "Don't aim too high. What you are doing now is to take one step at a time and establish a solid state in the blood coagulation stage. The more stable this state is, the better it will be for subsequent cultivation, even in the bone treasure stage."
Breakthroughs are of huge help."
"If you have a solid foundation, you will still have such powerful magic power when you reach the Perfection of Body Tempering."
"real?"
"Master has said so, there are still lies, we just need to practice steadily and practice hard."
Lu Kun saw the excited expressions of these disciples, but felt a little worried in his heart. Although the body cultivation reached the Body Tempering Dzogchen, the magic power was powerful, far beyond the ability of ordinary monks, but the Body Tempering Dzogchen was not so easy to cultivate.
Take Lu Kun himself as an example.
Without the help of the bloodline of the Great Ape and the aura of the Demonic Island back then, even if he entered the coagulation stage, he would have to linger in this realm for at least thirty or forty years.
The next stage of calcining the internal organs is a terrifying stage that consumes time. You must know that Lu Kun's body tempering speed is much faster than the body tempering techniques of several of his disciples.
Coupled with the help of Demon Spirit Island's abundant spiritual energy and some poison, it took nearly forty-five years.
But without Demon Spirit Island and these poisons, it would have taken Lu Kun at least eighty or ninety years to practice step by step from the early stage of Zang Calming to the Perfect Body Tempering.
Calculated in this way, without the rich spiritual energy and auxiliary cultivation methods, it would have taken him one hundred and thirty years to go from the early stage of blood coagulation to the perfection of body tempering, which is more than half of the years of a monk in the foundation building stage!
Among his disciples, Zhao Qingtian, who has the highest level of cultivation, is still a long way from the Zang-forging stage, but he is only twenty years younger than Lu Kun.
Lu Kun is almost 110 years old this year, which means Zhao Qingtian is around 90 years old. Even with the help of Demon Spirit Island's spiritual energy, the blood coagulation stage will take forty years, and the internal organs calving stage will take at least seventy years.
At that time, Zhao Qingtian was already two hundred years old. In his later years as a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, his physical body began to decline due to longevity, and the chance of entering the Bone Treasure Stage was even lower.
Therefore, if he wanted these disciples to break through to the bone treasure stage, he had to find a way to speed up their cultivation in the organ-burning stage. This is why Lu Kun put Pan Yan on the island to collect silver silkworm poison.
With enough poison, his disciples' cultivation time will continue to be shortened!
"And I must enter the bone treasure stage as soon as possible, so that I can have enough lifespan to develop my body cultivation line."
