293 Climbing the mountain(1/2)
Su Chen was on the shore of the East China Sea near Penglai Immortal Sect. The sun rose to the sea and returned to the sunset. He flew thousands of miles away at the farthest, hunted bloodthirsty monsters and other monsters on the sea, absorbed all the blood of the monsters, and practiced the first chapter of the "Yuan Devouring Code".
In this East China Sea near Penglai Immortal Sect, there are almost no high-level sea monsters above the Golden Pill. Those Jindan sea monsters already have high spiritual intelligence, and they also know that Penglai Immortal Sect can't afford to provoke them and will take the initiative to avoid them.
Only a large number of Qi-refining and a small number of foundation-building sea monsters will be grouped and hunted in the offshore area. Naturally, they will not bring any threat to Su Chen.
Any combat skills and spells require high-intensity practice to master them skillfully.
"Bloodthirsty Art" requires a lot of blood and energy, the more the better. The East China Sea is vast and boundless, with countless middle and low-level monsters in the deep sea, which is enough to provide Su Chen with high-intensity practice of blood combustion.
The principle of the blood burning technique in "Bloodthirsty Art" is not complicated, and it can even be said to be surprisingly simple.
The demon blood in the blood spirit bead is burned rapidly and transformed into surging demon energy. This huge demon energy bursts into the meridians of the cultivator's body, thereby greatly enhancing the strength of the physical body. This is the key to supporting the surge in combat power of the cultivator's physical body.
Su Chen only took half a month and tried repeatedly to master the combustion speed of the blood burning technique. The explosion of blood burning from one to ten times changed repeatedly in a very short time.
His body also began to adapt to this intense reaction.
After mastering the blood burning technique, he was quite interested in the large amount of vital energy generated by the demon blood burning. He even thought about whether he could use these vital energy to practice.
Su Chen once tried to absorb these vital energy with his soul.
However, he soon discovered that the demonic energy ignited by the blood-devouring demon shark's demon blood was very heavy.
After he just absorbed a small amount of demonic energy into his Qinglian soul, he felt that his mind became more violent, and he seemed to have a crazy desire to kill, and he wanted to vent it.
Su Chen couldn't help but be shocked, knowing that his mind was affected by the demonic energy.
He immediately took a Bing Xin Dan, and a bone-cold spiritual energy flowed all over his body. His mind suddenly became much clearer, suppressing the violent aura in his heart. It took him several days to completely eliminate the violent aura in his soul.
Su Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. Knowing that the demonic energy was not suitable for human race to cultivate immortals, he never dared to try to use the energy to absorb the demonic energy.
He made another attempt to burn his qi and blood to convert it into vital energy. He found that the vital energy transformed by his qi and blood can be directly absorbed by the primordial spirit.
However, the qi and blood of immortal cultivators are very precious. They need to eat a large amount of spiritual beast meat, spiritual valleys and spiritual herbs to produce a full qi and blood in their bodies. Blood burning will cause too much damage to themselves, and it will not be worth the cost. It is better to take a spiritual pill and use spiritual energy to convert it into vital energy to practice.
"In this way, only the vital energy of the human cultivator can be absorbed. The demonic vital energy born with the blood burning technique cannot be used to enhance the soul, and is only suitable for consumption in battle."
Su Chen was helpless.
In this way, he devoted himself to practicing the "Bloodthirsty Art" in the shore of the East China Sea, strengthening and tempering his body.
Time flies, and three months pass in a flash.
On this day, Su Chen calculated the time.
I practiced "Bloodthirsty Art" in the East China Sea for three months and gained a lot.
During this period, he also took some second-level marrow cleaning pills, cleaned his first and second spiritual marrow, and improved his spiritual marrow by a little quality, all of which were raised to 65 points.
Sixty-five o'clock is already barely entering the top-grade spiritual marrow. Compared with those top-grade spiritual marrow geniuses above ninety o'clock, it is naturally inferior to those of the top-grade spiritual marrow genius who are as high as eighty o'clock. However, compared with many middle-grade spiritual marrow cultivators who are less than sixty o'clock, it is much better.
The quality of the spiritual marrow is high, and the efficiency of converting spiritual energy into vitality is high, and the cultivation speed can undoubtedly be faster. So that he will not fall too far away from those genius monks because his spiritual marrow is too low even if he practices desperately.
Su Chen also used the "Split God Technique" once, enduring the huge pain of divine thoughts, and splitting increased a divine thought.
He was preparing to reach nine divine thoughts before he entered the late stage of foundation building, so that he could control nine flying swords at the same time, so that he could perform the third level of the sword technique of "Gourd Immortal-Slaying Flying Sword Technique".
This is his most commonly used method of fighting against the enemy during the foundation-building period, and of course he cannot be too weak.
Other means, such as the Misilian Flying Ants in the Golden Gourd, Zhuang Luyi in the Ghost Banner, the Golden Pill Blue Ice Flash Butterfly, are all forced to use them only when you have to worry about your life. You dare not use them easily.
The Misilian Flying Ant Colony, which once suffered heavy losses, had already recovered its full strength after eating hundreds of sea monsters. Thousands of Flying Ants all reached the early stage of Qi Refining.
Even dozens of Misilan Spirit-Devouring Flying Ants have reached an amazing foundation-building realm. Although they are only the size of a thumb, their attack power is very fierce and amazing.
These two days are the day when the sacred mountain is opened. It is also time to return to the sect, climb the sacred mountain to worship the ancestors, and strive to get a recommended place.
Su Chen suddenly stood up, threw out a flying sword, and headed towards Penglai Immortal Sect quickly.
Among the many spiritual veins of Penglai Immortal Sect, a huge main spiritual peak among the many spiritual veins of Penglai Immortal Sect is also the highest peak of the Immortal Sect. The illusory cloud and spiritual mist covers the mountainside, and the immortal spirit is full of energy, covered by a magnificent and thin golden light curtain, and no one can enter it on weekdays.
This is the famous sacred mountain.
This sacred mountain with a radius of fifty or sixty miles, more than ten thousand feet high. It breaks through the clouds and passes through the fog as if it is on the top of a cloud. Looking at the Immortal Tower Ling Pavilion in the sacred mountain with clouds and mists in the sacred mountain, it looks like a palace of the Immortal Palace.
Even spiritual cranes and birds rarely fly to the height of the top of the sacred mountain.
The sacred mountain is also the location of the medicine garden of the Penglai Immortal Sect.
The ancient immortal sect that has been around for thousands of years has accumulated a strong accumulation.
From the foot of the sacred mountain to the top of the mountain, there are spiritual medicine fields, and all kinds of spiritual medicines are planted. Those thousand-year-old spiritual herbs that are rare in the Jindan monk's medicine garden are everywhere in this sect medicine garden of the sacred mountain, which is not surprising.
There are many Lingquan Lingxis at the foot of the sacred mountain, and the water in Lingxi in the mountain stream is active, mostly water-based and wood-based spiritual medicines. The mountainside is fire-based and gold-based spiritual herbs, and the top of the snow peak is ice lotus and other ice-based and thunder-based herbs.
Even wild spiritual herbs are thousands of years old, and no one dares to go to the sacred mountain to pick them.
The sect spiritual medicine garden of Penglai Immortal Sect is personally managed by the sect leader. It will only use some of the foundation-building pills when refining the foundation-building pills, and allocate a small amount of high-level spiritual pills for cultivation to the Jindan monks every year.
The bottom-level foundation-building cultivators and Qi-refining cultivators have no chance to obtain the sect's spiritual medicine except the foundation-building pill.
It is precisely because of the huge spiritual medicine garden in the sacred mountain that it produces a large number of foundation-building pills that it can maintain the scale of thousands of foundation-building monks in the entire Penglai Immortal Sect.
At this time, nearly two hundred Foundation Establishment disciples were gathered at the foot of this sacred mountain, and they were talking in groups of three or five, discussing the matter on the sacred mountain.
They have arrived a long time ago and are waiting for the gate of the sacred mountain to open.
Among them, there are many monks from the Jindan family who have not been able to obtain the recommended place from the family and have to come to this sacred mountain to try it out and try their luck.
However, compared with the thousands of foundation-building monks in the entire Penglai Immortal Sect, there are not many foundation-building monks preparing to climb the sacred mountain to worship the ancestors.
Many foundation-building monks have tried it a long time ago, and many of them can't even climb the mountain, and have long been self-aware. Once every ten years, there are only one or two foundation-building monks who can climb to the top of the sacred mountain and worship Penglai Ancestor. They often cannot even get together for five people.
Su Chen came to the foot of the sacred mountain and saw some acquaintances among the hundreds of foundation-building cultivators, such as Wang Qiu's alchemy master, Zhang Zhuo's alchemy master, and others. There were also powerful middle-level foundation-building cultivators like Ji Yuanzheng and Zhuang Bai. Of course, there was no shortage of Lu Wei's strength like that, but he was still in the early stage of foundation-building, and he was just a foundation-building cultivator who came to make up the numbers.
"Junior Brother Su, I haven't seen you for many years, and your cultivation is so diligent that you can improve quickly!"
When Wang Qiu saw Su Chen, he found that he had already had the fifth floor of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and was a little surprised.
Su Chen stepped forward to greet Wang Qiu, wondering why Wang Qiu was here.
Wang Qiu sighed: "We are a monk who has no way to worship the Golden Pill Elder and cannot get the recommended quota. Only this last journey. The sacred mountain will open tomorrow. If you can climb to the top of the sacred mountain, you will get a recommended quota. I don't have much life left. Although my hope is slim, I still have to give it a try before I can be content."
"It's not easy to climb to the top of the sacred mountain!"
The monk next to him whispered, not optimistic.
Most foundation-building monks do not have much confidence in climbing to the top of the sacred mountain.
After all, truly powerful late-stage cultivators in the foundation building stage are generally among the best in the Jindan family, and they directly get recommended places through the Jindan family.
If you come to this sacred mountain, you will either be a foundation-building monk with no background or a weak family monk.
This approach is entirely the Penglai Immortal Sect in order to check for shortcomings and fill in the gaps. It allows a very small number of foundation-building cultivators who truly use powerful strength to avoid the opportunity to miss the golden elixir because they cannot get the recommended quota.
Among the chickens, there are naturally a very small number of people who stand out.
Su Chen greeted those acquaintances, so he found an open space on his own, sat down on the ground, and waited for the opening of the sacred mountain.
After waiting for half an hour, Su Chen was surprised to see Wu Qiao. He came to the foot of the sacred mountain with a heavy golden axe on his back.
"Brother Wu, are you here too?"
Su Chen smiled in surprise.
He was surprised, not because Wu Qiao's cultivation level had reached the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. But Wu Qiao has always only cared about whether there are spiritual trees to cut down and does not like to participate in these idle things.
I didn't expect to come to this sacred mountain to compete for the only five recommended places.
"Brother Su, when will you return to the sect?!"
Wu Qiao grinned, walked to Su Chen and sat down, and said with a hearty smile: "Master Lu said that there are ten thousand years of divine trees planted on the sacred mountain, which are extraordinary, so I will take a look. Of course, if you can get a recommended place, it will be an opportunity to seize the spirit fruit and break the golden elixir. I don't care about anything else, but the golden elixir still has to fight for it. Which immortal cultivator doesn't want to become the golden elixir road!"
"How is Brother Lu's situation?"
"He and Zhang both entered the early stage of foundation building half a year ago. They had some wealth obtained from Tianfeng Gorge, and their cultivation was quite smooth."
Su Chen and Wu Qiao had a chat with each sentence.
After Wu Qiao returned from Tianfeng Gorge, he recovered from the mountain gate for half a year and has now recovered. After he healed his injuries, he still went up the mountain to chop firewood. His cultivation progressed rapidly, and he made great progress, and he broke through the fourth level of the foundation-building stage in one fell swoop.
Su Chen could only sigh at this.
He had been struggling for so long, and he was not short of second-level spiritual pills every day. He occasionally took Taoyao's Yuanqi Tao, and he was only at the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Wu Qiao was not even convinced of the low-level spiritual pills, and occasionally ate some spiritual valleys and beast meat, and he was almost catching up with his cultivation.
In Penglai Immortal Sect, a few of them were born for every 200 cultivators with the highest spiritual marrow talent. However, a magical talent like Wu Qiao, who specializes in the art of cutting wood, is unique.
Su Chen waited at the foot of the sacred mountain for a day.
The next morning, several Golden Elders finally arrived late and flew to the foot of the sacred mountain. The leader was the Great Elder Li Xingfeng Li, the Great Elder among the Great Elder among the many Golden Elders of the Penglai Immortal Sect. Among them, they were among the top five among the many Golden Elders of the Penglai Immortal Sect.
The monks who built foundations were shocked when they saw this, and they were respectful and did not dare to salute at all.
Elder Li of this Palace of Precepts is not as strict as he is. If he passes through, he will be punished.
Li Xingfeng wore a golden robe and got off the beast riding car. He swept over the foundation-building monks with a indifferent expression and said, "You all come here to climb the sacred mountain and worship the ancestors. I think you know the rules.
I would like to remind you here. After entering the sacred mountain, you can climb to the top of the mountain along the stone steps of the sacred mountain. Do not break out of the stone steps and break into the spiritual medicine garden outside, otherwise you will be injured by the formation of the spiritual medicine garden.
If you can't climb up, retreat the same way. If you force it, you will be responsible for your casualties. After climbing to the top of the sacred mountain, you only need to bow in front of the stone cave of the ancestor's retreat and leave. Do not interfere with the ancestor's retreat practice.
Every foundation-building monk has only three times in his life to climb the sacred mountain. So I would like to advise you that if you don’t have confidence, it’s best not to waste opportunities. When your cultivation is strong enough, you will come to climb the sacred mountain.”
