An Ordinary Path to Immortality

It is precisely because it is so difficult and dangerous to form a golden elixir that most cultivators only practice one type of spiritual root.

In this way, if cultivators have the opportunity to impact the golden elixir, it is easier to focus on one spiritual root than to take care of two or more spiritual roots.

It is already very dangerous for ordinary cultivators to cultivate one spiritual root, but the five elements cultivators need to control five spiritual roots.

Cultivation is not playing house, there is no chance of trial and error.

Once failed, the cultivator is very likely to die on the spot because of problems with the spiritual root and elixir field.

If any cultivator fails to form a golden elixir and still survives, it is not known whether to say that he is lucky or unlucky.

It is precisely because the probability of the five elements cultivators to successfully form a golden elixir is too low, and it is so low that everyone despairs, so many sects are unwilling to cultivate five elements cultivators.

Because they know very well that it is just like a foolish dream for the five elements cultivators to successfully form a golden elixir.

But now Fang Ping has nine spiritual roots. He needs to control the nine spiritual roots to break through the Dantian restraint, and break up the nine spiritual roots and the Dantian to merge into a golden elixir.

The key is that because there are nine spiritual roots in the Dantian that are constantly growing, Fang Ping has experienced several adventures and used various natural treasures, and his Dantian is also very strong.

It is not so easy to control all the spiritual roots to break through the Dantian barrier.

In this process, Fang Ping cannot have any accidents, otherwise all his previous efforts will be wasted, and he may even die directly because of the chaos of his whole body's vitality and lose control of his body.

Fang Ping's retreat this time is another two months. During this period, he has gone through several attempts, but he has never been able to get a satisfactory result.

In these two months, Fang Ping has been staying in the wooden house, and even asked Shi Anfu and the two little guys to go to the market to deliver elixirs.

Two months later, Fang Ping finally left the wooden house and sat on the top of the mountain drinking tea with a depressed look on his face.

Xiao Wu was sitting next to him. In front of Xiao Wu, there was a teacup. Xiao Wu was even imitating Fang Ping in drinking tea.

"The Dantian is perfect, the meridians are full, the spirit is calm, the body is strong, and even the exercises are fine. I also have the experience of Yuan Sheng in forming the elixir. Why do I always feel that something is missing?"

Fang Ping seemed to be talking to Xiao Wu, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

Xiao Wu naturally couldn't give an answer, so Fang Ping had to find a way to solve it himself.

In the past two months, Fang Ping has made several attempts, and each time he has an extremely strong sense of crisis, which makes him feel that he will definitely fail if he continues.

But Fang Ping didn't know why he felt this way.

"Is it because the nine spiritual roots forming the elixir is too incredible, so it will cause some kind of rule change?"

Fang Ping, who was talking to himself, suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Rules? Five elements rules? Laws of heaven and earth..."

Fang Ping felt that he seemed to have grasped something very crucial, but that little bit of spiritual light was always so ethereal that he couldn't see or grasp it.

He sat there for three days. During these three days, he completely let go of his thoughts and let his brain run wild, hoping to find a hint of inspiration in these chaotic mental images.

Xiao Wu's personality naturally made him unable to sit still. He sat with Fang Ping for a while and drank tea before running out to play somewhere.

He came back a few times and saw that Fang Ping had been maintaining a weird posture. His aura was chaotic but he was not in danger of going crazy.

So Xiao Wu did not disturb Fang Ping. He just sat with him quietly for a while to confirm that Fang Ping would not wake up to play with him in a short time, and then ran out to play again.

In fact, Fang Ping could naturally feel Xiao Wu's presence, but he could not take care of Xiao Wu for the time being.

Not long after Xiao Wu left, Fang Ping, who was wandering in the world, suddenly felt a familiar sense of crisis again.

The appearance of this feeling made Fang Ping wake up instantly, because this time he did not try to break through.

The sense of crisis came out of nowhere, which surprised Fang Ping.

"No, this feeling is not consistent with the feeling I felt when I broke through."

The sense of crisis this time was much weaker than before, but it was clearly present and gradually increasing.

"Squeak... Squeak..."

Xiao Wu's panicked and anxious voice suddenly came, which woke Fang Ping up again. With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he instantly found Xiao Wu running towards him frantically, and also found the source of Xiao Wu's panic.

"Heavenly Tribulation!"

On the hilltop where purple bamboo was planted, a group of black tribulation clouds that were constantly gathering appeared at some point.

"How could there be a heavenly tribulation?" Fang Ping was puzzled, but the next moment, the illusory spiritual light in his heart suddenly became clear.

"Yes, it is the heavenly tribulation." Fang Ping's voice was full of surprise: "Nine Spiritual Roots forming a pill is too heaven-defying. For such an extraordinary existence, if it wants to exist, it must go through the test of the laws of heaven and earth.

And this test is the heavenly tribulation.

So once I try to break through, the heaven and earth feel it, the thunder tribulation is brewing, and my heart naturally feels it."

Fang Ping instantly figured out the key, and his thoughts immediately became clear, the depression in his heart dissipated, and his mood became comfortable.

"Squeak..." Xiao Wu ran over and jumped onto Fang Ping's shoulder, pointing his little paw at the hilltop where Zizhu was, conveying to Fang Ping a wave of grievance, helplessness, fear and anxiety.

Fang Ping understood instantly, patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, the heavenly tribulation was brought by the purple bamboo, it's not targeting you."

Xiao Wu had experienced the heavenly tribulation when he was building his foundation, and the feeling of being small and helpless under the heavenly tribulation is still vivid in his mind.

Xiao Wu obviously didn't understand how a few bamboos could bring about the heavenly tribulation.

So Fang Ping briefly introduced the purple bamboo, and asked Xiao Wu to be careful when cultivating the purple bamboo in the future, so as not to force it to grow too hard, and if the heavenly tribulation happened to happen to be gone, then all the purple bamboo that Xiao Wu had cultivated with great effort would be destroyed by the heavenly tribulation.

Xiao Wu nodded, not quite understanding, and after finding that Fang Ping was actually flying towards the heavenly tribulation, he quickly jumped off Fang Ping.

Fang Ping didn't force Xiao Wu to come over to experience the heavenly tribulation, after all, Xiao Wu was also a beast, and the fear of the heavenly tribulation was natural.

He soon came to the thunder tribulation and found that there was indeed a thick purple bamboo that was purple and black on the top of the mountain that stood out from the crowd.

This purple bamboo is thicker and longer than other bamboos, with luxuriant branches and leaves, like a big tree.

Fang Ping smiled. This should be the result of Xiao Wu's purpose of catching this one and nurturing it.

But he didn't expect that the purple bamboo of Poxiao is different from other spiritual plants. The purple bamboo of Poxiao itself is a rare spiritual root. It's not that the purple bamboo is rare, but that the purple bamboo of high age, especially the purple bamboo of more than a thousand years, is very rare.

Because the purple bamboo will experience thunder tribulation when it reaches a thousand years.

If it survives the thunder tribulation, it will become the purple bamboo of Poxiao.

Because the purple bamboo itself contains thunder attribute, the magic weapon refined with the purple bamboo of Poxiao contains the most rigid and yang thunder attribute, which has a strong restraining effect on evil and crooked ways.
