Ask about the Immortal Way

Chapter 2227 Foundation Building

The clouds closed up, blocking the last ray of moonlight.

Qin Sang lowered his head and walked into the attic. After pouring wine for Master Tongshen and Mr. Lu, he stood quietly by and listened to them talking.

What he was thinking about in his heart was the "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" technique.

Unexpectedly, entering this illusion actually pointed him in the direction of "Heavenly Demon Refining Form".

Because he was unable to split himself, Qin Sang chose to major in "Purple Star Sword Sutra", but it did not mean that he would give up "Heavenly Demon Refining Form". After all, everything above the fusion stage was uncertain, and it was unknown which path he would take at that time. Maybe he would switch to major in "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" and embark on the path of strength.

Even if we don't consider the improvement of strength by practicing both the Dharma and the body, according to what the ghost mother said before, the spirit, energy and spirit will be of great benefit to future breakthroughs. As long as his energy allows, he will definitely do his best to improve himself.

However, after learning that the path of ancient demon cultivation was to send demon souls to the stars, Qin Sang had another layer of hidden worries.

Why did the demons of later generations almost completely abandon this path? Are there some huge drawbacks and hidden dangers?

Even the demons have given up, so it seems unwise to continue practicing "Heavenly Demon Refining Form".

Demon cultivators of later generations will also cultivate Dharma images in the Refining Void Stage. I wonder what changes will happen after breaking through the Fusion Stage.

If the road ahead is not feasible, perhaps he can also switch to practicing the methods of demon cultivation of later generations. Therefore, he will not give up "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" before breaking through the Fusion Stage.

Qin Sang's thoughts are flying, and there is always a feeling of seeing flowers in the fog. I don't know whether the illusion can give birth to great powers in the Fusion Stage or even the Mahayana Stage, and how they will exist.

In the world of cultivating immortals, entering the Fusion Stage can be called a great power, with great magical powers, and can already touch the Great Dao. If this illusion can transform into a vivid great power in the Fusion Stage, it is too against the sky, and the difficulty of breaking the illusion will be unimaginable.

Now, Qin Sang dared not treat this place as a pure illusion anymore. There must be many secrets hidden here, waiting for him to dig out. If he really met a powerful demon cultivator in the Star Soul Realm, he might have a chance to ask him for advice.

In this case, he also had to pick up the "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" technique and disguise himself as an ancient demon cultivator. It would definitely be safer in this situation, and he could also get information from the demon clan, which would also help him find Liuli.

But doing so would take away half of his energy, and his strength would improve more slowly.

Thinking about these questions in his mind, Qin Sang did not forget to prick up his ears and eavesdrop on the conversation between Master Tongshen and Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu saw that Master Tongshen did not avoid this little apprentice at all, and knew that Qin Sang was very valued by Master Tongshen. Therefore, except for the most critical secrets, he would communicate through voice transmission, and everything else would be said directly.

"After saying goodbye to my fellow Taoist, I went to Lingkong Mountain. I didn't spend much time to find out a lot of news. Almost all the Golden Eagle monks responsible for guarding the territory received the same order to post portraits everywhere and look for those people..."

Mr. Lu said while drinking.

Lingkong Mountain does not refer to a mountain, but a huge mountain range located in the northeast of Yuanjing Mountain. It is the habitat of the entire Golden Eagle tribe.

Lingkong Mountain is very vast. The deeper you go, the stronger the strength of the Golden Eagle monks. Except for the powerful dragons in the Star Soul Realm, it is said that the dojo of the powerful people in the Dharma Realm of the Golden Eagle tribe is deep in Lingkong Mountain.

Yuanjing Mountain is located on the periphery of Lingkong Mountain. The Golden Eagle tribe only sent a small eagle king in the Lingming Realm to guard it.

"Oh? Did those fellow Taoists make a big fuss in Lingkong Mountain?"

Master Tongshen thought to himself that these people could escape unscathed after making a big fuss in Lingkong Mountain. I'm afraid it's not something they can intervene in.

He was instigated by his apprentice and was a little impulsive.

"No, Lingkong Mountain has always been very stable! But the order did come from deep in Lingkong Mountain."

Mr. Lu's expression became more serious, "These few days, I invited several friends from the Golden Eagle Clan to a party. One of them revealed a piece of news during the banquet. The source of this order is likely to be the Phoenix Clan!"

"Phoenix Clan?"

Master Tongshen put down his wine glass, looking surprised.

Mr. Lu nodded, "This fellow Taoist has a deep background, and his information should be credible. If those people offend the Golden Eagle Clan, the Golden Eagle Clan will definitely send out the strong men in the clan to search for them. Now they just post the portraits, and they don't see them making a big move, which means that the Golden Eagle Clan doesn't care too much, maybe they drifted here from the Phoenix Clan."

"Not necessarily!"

Master Tongshen said in a sad tone, "Maybe there has been an undercurrent behind us, and we are still unaware! Blame me for being a little rash, we jumped into the vortex without knowing anything, I'm afraid we will get burned!"

He and Mr. Lu's backgrounds are only slightly stronger than those of casual cultivators, and the fellow Taoists who are on good terms with them are also similar in strength and power. It is tantamount to hitting a rock with an egg to openly oppose the Golden Eagle Clan, not to mention the Phoenix Clan.

Mr. Lu was shocked when he heard this, "Does fellow Taoist mean that someone wants to lure the snake out of the hole? If we stop now, I'm afraid it's too late..."

It turned out that Mr. Lu also met a fellow Taoist of the human race in Lingkong Mountain. The sect of that human cultivator is at the northern foot of Lingkong Mountain.

There are some small tribes between the Golden Eagle and Phoenix tribes. Those small tribes are completely dependent on the Phoenix tribe and obey the Phoenix tribe. Therefore, Lingkong Mountain is barely bordering the Phoenix tribe.

The human cultivator was entrusted by Mr. Lu to go and investigate. He has returned to the mountain gate. It is too late to call him back now. And Lingkong Mountain is between the two places, so it is even more unsafe to send a talisman.

The room was filled with an uneasy atmosphere. Qin Sang thought deeper than they thought.

The Phoenix Clan was also a super-rich clan in ancient times. Only a few big clans such as the Dragon Clan can compete with the Phoenix Clan. The only one who is superior to the Phoenix Clan is the Yao Xing!

If a great power in the integration stage evolves in the illusion, it is likely that the great power has noticed the abnormality and is looking for the intruder.

"Perhaps I am overthinking it! In this case, we will wait for the news about that fellow Taoist before making a decision," Master Tongshen comforted, "However, we must remind Brother Kui and the others that what they do next must be Be more careful."

To rescue those people, just the two of them were not enough, so Mr. Lu contacted several more friends.

"That's right," Mr. Lu nodded and looked around, "Lu's place is often visited by Taoist friends, and there are many people. Taoist friends like to be quiet and not attract attention. Next, the Taoist friends will be in the middle to communicate."

Master Tongshen said "good", and then the two of them had a secret conversation before Mr. Lu said goodbye and left.

Watch Mr. Heron fly out of the mountain.

A look of worry flashed through Master Tongshen's eyes, and he sighed softly: "Do you now know the dangers of the world of cultivating immortals?"

Qin Sang blamed himself: "It's all my fault for causing trouble and putting master in danger!"

Seeing that Qin Sang really understood and was so clear about the world, Master Tongshen's mood immediately improved greatly, and he turned to smile and said: "Don't worry, my disciple, if the sky falls, Master will still hold up! Even the cunning rabbit Sancao, your senior brother came down the mountain this time just to do something for you. The master is looking for another dojo. We can afford to hide it even if we can't afford it. The big deal is, I will settle you down for the master and go find the paradise that the descendants of the gods and the strong men of the human race have opened up. Then I will take you there, so you don't have to be afraid anymore. These monsters!"

After Mr. Lu left, peace returned to Yuanjing Mountain. The crisis they worried about did not come, and Qin Sang lived a stable life at the mountain gate.

Master Tongshen originally wanted to seek opportunities in the world of mortals, but unexpectedly met Qin Sang, so he stopped traveling and did not intend to go down the mountain again.

Qin Sang's quiet room was next to Master Tongshen, who often came out of seclusion to give guidance to Qin Sang.

After Qin Sang's repeated insistence, Master Tongshen finally became impatient and taught him the most basic alchemy skills.

Originally, Master Tongshen was worried that Qin Sang was learning alchemy because he wanted to use foreign objects to achieve quick success, but he didn't expect to give him a bigger surprise.

This apprentice's talent in alchemy is actually higher than in cultivation. He often explains several secret books of alchemy carefully selected by him, and Qin Sang can understand 80% to 90% of it. Then he asks his master for some advice. The problem can be fully understood.

You know, Qin Sang has just started practicing, and even the most basic alchemy skills are beyond Qin Sang's level.

Master Tongshen has never seen such a monster disciple. When he thinks that as this disciple's cultivation level gets higher and higher, he may have nothing to teach him, he can't help sweating on his forehead.

Due to Qin Sang's unparalleled performance, Master Tongshen took the initiative and opened a small fire room for him, allowing him to personally refine elixirs to see if his talent was really that high.

Of course, what he asked Qin Sang to refine were the most basic elixirs, mostly powders, nectar and the like, and the medicinal materials were freely available upon request.

Qin Sang's performance naturally did not disappoint. Part of the elixir he refined was shown to Master Tongshen, and the other part went into his stomach.

Coupled with the elixir carefully prepared by Master Tongshen to strengthen his body and cultivate his vitality, with the help of the elixir, Qin Sang's cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and he soon entered the third level of the Qi Refining Stage. In the eyes of the master, cultivation and alchemy go hand in hand. Not only are they not delayed, they will also complement each other in the future.

Of course, this is according to later generations, Qin Sang is still at the first level of the basic skills of Yuanjing Mountain.

Just like the demon clan, in ancient times, the realms of the human race were also very different from those in later generations.

The human race has four realms: refining energy to transform, refining gas to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to the void, and refining the void to combine with the Tao, which roughly correspond to the demon clan's spirit realm, form transformation realm, Dharma phase realm, and star soul realm.

From this we can see the evolution of the world of immortality. After a long process, later generations of immortality practitioners have summarized a complete and reasonable system of cultivation. What should be done in each realm and what is the key to breaking through to the next realm are all clear. It is summed up based on the experience of countless predecessors.

In ancient times, there was also the saying of foundation building, which was included in the realm of refining and refining qi. Successful foundation building was equivalent to the foundation building period in later generations, but before that, you could only explore on your own, and there were no thirteen levels in the qi refining period.

In the fire room.

"It's just an ordinary iron ring..."

Qin Sang had just finished refining a furnace of medicine and was sitting next to the alchemy cauldron, playing with the Qianjun Ring in his hand.

His cultivation level was too low. Qin Sang's cultivation level and spiritual consciousness did not support his continued alchemy refining. Even if he wanted to control the fire, he needed to use the magic circle carved on the alchemy cauldron by Master Tongshen.

He made some disguises, and Qian Jun Jie's appearance changed drastically.

Qin Sang has begun to practice. In his perception, Qianjun Ring is still the most ordinary iron ring and cannot open the small cave.

"Is it because I can't cultivate enough?"

Qin Sang frowned.

If he had to reach his previous level of cultivation before the Qianjun Ring could be restored to its original state, even if he was a re-cultivator, he would never be able to do it in a short time.

With a slight sigh, Qin Sang put away the Qianjun Ring and counted the time silently, secretly thinking that the master should be released from seclusion soon.

He glanced at the medicinal materials on the shelf next to him and prepared to refine the first elixir recorded in "Qinglu Returning Pill Jue" to give his master a 'surprise'.

Speaking of this matter, Qin Sang discovered another difference between ancient times and later generations.

The mustard seeds here are very valuable!

When later generations of disciples enter the school, the master will first hand out a mustard bag, but Qin Sang still hasn't got one yet.

Master Tongshen once said that when he succeeded in building his foundation, he would buy him a mustard seed magic weapon as a reward. This was the case for both his senior brother and senior sister. Moreover, the space inside was very small and could only hold necessities.

"There are still people who yearn for the ancient times, but they don't know that the ancient times were really inconvenient everywhere!"

Qin Sang shook his head secretly, took the spiritual materials on the shelf into the alchemy cauldron, touched the magic circle, and ignited the earth fire.

The firelight illuminated Qin Sang's little face, which was red.

He had a serious expression and completed every step meticulously. The fire in the fire room became brighter and brighter, almost setting his clothes on fire. Finally, the alchemy cauldron vibrated loudly, and the lid of the cauldron clanged, and a faint blue light came out from the gap.

Qin Sang narrowed his eyes, lifted the lid of the cauldron, and saw two blue pills, as transparent as water, which were Hualu Dan.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was a bit difficult for him to refine Hualu Dan with his current cultivation, but fortunately he succeeded.

After a short breath, Qin Sang picked up a Hualu Dan and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Then, his cheeks became red at a speed visible to the naked eye, his body swayed, his eyes were hazy, as if he was drunk, and finally he simply lay on the ground and fell asleep.

"Disciple..."

"Disciple?"

After an unknown amount of time, Master Tongshen called out from outside the door.

No one responded inside, Master Tongshen realized something was wrong, broke into the room, and was shocked.

"Disciple!"

Master Tongshen rushed to Qin Sang, his eyes suddenly widened.

Because he saw a Hualu Pill in the alchemy furnace! Qin Sang's current state was clearly the same as after taking the Hualu Pill.

"This, this, this..."

Master Tongshen was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

You know, he had only used the Hualu Pill as an example to tell Qin Sang what to pay attention to when refining the pill, and didn't explain the most subtle part of the pill formula.

This disciple actually successfully refined the Hualu Pill by his own exploration!

Moreover, Qin Sang had not yet truly practiced the "Qinglu Huandan Jue" and could not gain the benefits of the technique!

Suppressing the fluctuating thoughts in his heart, Master Tongshen carried Qin Sang back to the quiet room and personally guarded by the bed.

"Master," after the effect of the medicine faded, Qin Sang woke up faintly, and his cultivation level soared a lot.

"You are so bold!" Master Tongshen wanted to scold with a stern face, but he couldn't suppress his mouth.

That night, Master Tongshen finally taught Qin Sang the "Qinglu Huandan Jue".

External medicine and internal cultivation complement each other, Qin Sang successfully touched the bottleneck, and it was natural to return to the foundation-building stage.
