Divine Mystical Immortality: Starting Cultivation with the Town Martial Guard

In the next few hours, Fu Shaoping continued to cast various spells, from attack spells to defense spells, and then to auxiliary spells. He first cast a fire attack spell, and saw a ball of blazing flames flying out of his hand. The color of the flame was brighter than usual, and the temperature was higher. Wherever it went, the branches and leaves of the trees were instantly scorched, making a "sizzling" sound. Then, he cast another defensive spell, and a layer of light blue spiritual power shield appeared in front of him. The thickness and strength of this shield were obviously much higher than before. Even if it was attacked by a strong force, it only caused a slight ripple. Finally, he cast an auxiliary spell. This spell could only slightly increase his speed, but now, his figure disappeared instantly, and when he appeared again, he was already several feet away. The speed was so fast that it was astonishing.

He found that when the Hun Tianzhu improved his cultivation, the power and effect of all spells were greatly improved. Moreover, in the process of casting spells, he did not feel any discomfort, and the operation of spiritual power was also very smooth. Every time he cast a spell, it was like a new experience, allowing him to feel the pleasure brought by powerful strength.

"At present, everything seems to be going well. However, we still have to observe for a while to see how long this improved cultivation can last." Elder Yan said. Elder Yan's eyes never left Fu Shaoping, and he carefully observed every detail of Fu Shaoping after using the Hun Tianzhu to improve his cultivation.

As time went by, about a day later, Fu Shaoping suddenly felt a slight fluctuation in the spiritual power in his body. He was startled and sat down to check his condition. He found that the cultivation level improved by the Hun Tianzhu was slowly fading, just like the tide receding. The powerful force that was originally filled in the meridians gradually became weak. Moreover, during the process of the cultivation level fading, he felt a slight tingling in the meridians, which was like countless fine needles gently piercing the meridians, but this tingling was still within his tolerance.

"It seems that the cultivation level improved by this Hun Tianzhu cannot be maintained permanently, and it will have a certain impact on the meridians when it fades." Fu Shaoping frowned and said. The original excitement on his face has disappeared, replaced by a trace of worry.

Nangong Wan hurriedly asked: "Is the impact serious? Will it affect your future cultivation?" Nangong Wan's voice was full of concern. She walked to Fu Shaoping, squatted down, and looked into Fu Shaoping's eyes.

Fu Shaoping shook his head, "At present, the impact is not great. It's just that the meridians are a little tingling, which should not affect future cultivation. However, this also reminds us that we must be cautious when using this Hun Tianzhu." Although Fu Shaoping's tone was still calm, he had a deeper vigilance in his heart about the use of Hun Tianzhu.

Elder Yan nodded, "That's right. Although this Hun Tianzhu can improve cultivation in a short period of time, it is after all an external force that forcibly improves it, so there will definitely be some side effects. We need to study it further to see if we can find a way to reduce the side effects." Elder Yan's expression was serious. He knew the importance of this Hun Tianzhu and understood that if its side effects were not properly handled, it might cause them a lot of trouble.

In the following days, they continued to study Hun Tianzhu in the valley. Elder Yan took out various rare herbs and materials from his storage bag, trying to find something that could alleviate the side effects of Hun Tianzhu. He crushed these herbs and materials one by one, and then used spiritual power to fuse them with the power of Hun Tianzhu. Nangong Wan carefully recorded the data and results of each experiment. Her eyes were focused and serious, and she didn't miss any details. Fu Shaoping was responsible for conducting experiments on himself. He endured the discomfort caused by the improvement and decline of his cultivation again and again, hoping to find the best way to use it.

They tried different combinations of herbs, different ways of injecting spiritual power, and even changed the order in which Hun Tianzhu connected with their own spiritual power. Sometimes, experiments bring some surprising results. For example, once they found that a herb called Lingxu grass, after being combined with the power of Hun Tianzhu, could slightly reduce the tingling sensation in the meridians when the cultivation level faded. But sometimes, the experiment would fail, and even cause some small spiritual power fluctuations, which made Fu Shaoping feel uncomfortable.

In one experiment, Fu Shaoping injected a mineral powder called purple star stone and the power of Hun Tianzhu into his body at the same time according to the instructions of Elder Yan. As a result, his cultivation level became abnormally slow, and during the process of improvement, he felt a strong pressure squeezing his meridians, as if to burst them. His face turned pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"No, this method is dangerous." Seeing this, Elder Yan hurriedly stopped the experiment, and a trace of guilt appeared on his face.

"It's okay, elder, this is also part of the exploration." Fu Shaoping gritted his teeth and said, although his body was very uncomfortable, his eyes were still firm.

After countless attempts and failures, they gradually discovered some rules. They found that if one took a pill made from Lingxu grass and several other herbs before using the Hun Tian Bead, it could reduce the impact on the meridians when the cultivation level was improved to a certain extent, and the tingling sensation in the meridians would be significantly reduced when the cultivation level was reduced. Moreover, they also found that if one did not over-cast difficult spells after using the Hun Tian Bead to improve the cultivation level, the speed of the cultivation level reduction would be relatively slow, and the impact on the meridians would be smaller.

However, they also knew that these methods only alleviated the side effects of the Hun Tianzhu to a certain extent, and could not completely eliminate them. This Hun Tianzhu is still a double-edged sword. If used properly, it can play a huge role at a critical moment, but if used improperly, it may also bring yourself a lot of trouble.

After a series of studies on the Hun Tianzhu, Fu Shaoping and others heard about a mysterious site. This site is said to hide countless treasures and lost skills, attracting many immortal cultivators to explore. And they also decided to embark on a journey to the outer gate of the site.

The road leading to the outer gate of the site is rugged and difficult to walk, and there is a desolate scene around. The whistling wind blew past, rolling up the yellow sand all over the sky, making it almost impossible to open your eyes. Fu Shaoping squinted his eyes and looked at the unclear road ahead. His heart was full of expectations for the unknown things in the site, and there was a trace of worry about the dangers ahead.

"This ghost place, the wind and sand are really strong." Nangong Wan frowned and blocked the wind and sand with her sleeves. Her voice was torn by the wind and was a little intermittent.

Elder Yan had a serious look on his face, and his eyes were scanning the surroundings, as if he was looking for some potential danger. "Everyone be careful, there are often many traps hidden in places like this."

As they gradually approached the outer gate of the ruins, the surrounding environment became more and more weird. Some huge cracks appeared on the ground, and black smoke was spewing out from the cracks from time to time, emitting a pungent smell. The smoke was rising, as if it was a messenger from hell, adding a bit of horror to this desolate land.

"This smoke doesn't look right, everyone hold your breath." Fu Shaoping reminded, and he took out some pills from the storage bag and distributed them to everyone. These pills can temporarily resist the invasion of poisonous gas.

Finally, they saw the outer gate of the ruins. It was a huge stone gate, engraved with ancient runes and patterns. These runes emitted a faint light, as if telling the glory of the past. On both sides of the stone gate, there stood two huge stone statues. The faces of the stone statues were a little blurred, but the majestic momentum could still be felt.

"Wow, this is the outer gate of the ruins. It looks so spectacular." Nangong Wan exclaimed, her eyes flashing with curiosity, and the unhappiness of being tortured by the wind and sand had long been thrown out of the sky.

Fu Shaoping was also shocked by the scene in front of him, but he remained vigilant. "Let's not rush in, observe the surrounding situation first."

Elder Yan nodded, he approached the stone gate and carefully examined the runes on the door. "These runes are very old, I can only understand part of them. It seems to warn that trespassers will be in danger."

Just as they were observing, a group of immortal cultivators walked out from behind the rocks next to them. These immortal cultivators looked a little embarrassed, their clothes were covered with dust, and their eyes revealed fatigue and vigilance.

"Are you here to explore this ruins too?" One of the immortal cultivators who looked like a leader asked.

Fu Shaoping nodded, "Yes, have you found anything?"

The leader-like cultivator shook his head, "We have been trapped here for several days. This stone door can't be opened at all, and there are some strange formations around. As long as you get close, you will be attacked."

"Formation?" Elder Yan frowned, "Can I take a look?"

The cultivator took them to a seemingly ordinary place, but when Elder Yan approached, a spiritual light suddenly shot out. Elder Yan hurriedly stepped back, his face turned a little pale.

"What a powerful formation, this should be a defensive ancient formation, but it is incomplete. If we can find the eye of the formation, maybe we can break it." Elder Yan said.

Fu Shaoping looked at the formation in front of him and thought about how to break it. "Then let's start with the runes and terrain around to see if we can find clues to the eye of the formation."

So, everyone began to disperse and look for clues around. Nangong Wan found a strange symbol under a stone, which was somewhat similar to the runes on the stone door. "Come and see, I have found something here!"

Everyone gathered around, and Elder Yan carefully studied the symbol. "This symbol may be the key to the array's eye. Let's look for it in this direction."

In the process of looking for the array's eye, everyone was very nervous. Danger may be hidden in every corner, and every subtle discovery may be the key to cracking the array. Time passed by, everyone's sweat kept flowing, but their eyes remained firm.

Suddenly, Fu Shaoping felt that the ground under his feet was a little loose. He was startled and jumped away quickly. At the moment he jumped away, a huge deep pit appeared on the ground, and the deep pit was full of sharp thorns.

"It's a close call." Fu Shaoping said with lingering fear.

"Everyone, be careful of your feet. There must be many such traps around this array." Elder Yan reminded loudly.

After a difficult search, they finally found the array's eye behind an inconspicuous stone. It was a crystal ball emitting a faint light, and the crystal ball was engraved with complex runes.

Elder Yan took a deep breath and began to use his spiritual power to crack the array. His hands kept changing hand seals, and spiritual power was injected into the crystal ball. As the spiritual power was injected, the light of the crystal ball became stronger and stronger, and the surrounding formation began to fluctuate.

"Everyone retreat, the formation is about to break!" Elder Yan shouted.

Everyone retreated quickly, only to hear a roar, the light of the formation gradually dissipated, and the feeling of oppression disappeared.

"Finally cracked it." Nangong Wan breathed a sigh of relief, with a joyful smile on his face.

Now, they can finally get close to the outer door of the ruins. Fu Shaoping walked to the front of the stone door, reached out and touched the runes on the stone door, and his heart was full of awe.

"How do we open this stone door?" he asked.

Elder Yan came forward and observed carefully for a while. "These runes seem to require specific spiritual power fluctuations to open. Let's try to inject spiritual power together."

So, Fu Shaoping, Nangong Wan and Elder Yan injected spiritual power into the stone door at the same time. The runes on the stone door shone brightly, and then slowly opened. An ancient and mysterious breath came to the face, and there was a long passage inside, with faint lights flashing in the passage.

"Let's go, let's go in." Fu Shaoping said, and he took the lead in stepping into the passage.

The passage was very quiet, with only their footsteps echoing. There are murals carved on the walls, which depict the life and battle scenes of ancient immortal cultivators. Nangong Wan walked and looked at the murals carefully, her eyes full of amazement.

"Look, this immortal cultivator's skills are so magical, I wonder if they are still handed down now." She pointed to a mural and said.

"Maybe there are records of this skill in this site." Fu Shaoping said with a smile.

However, they didn't go far before they heard a low roar. The sound echoed in the passage, making people shudder.

"What's the sound?" Nangong Wan grabbed Fu Shaoping's arm nervously.

"Everyone be careful, there may be a guardian beast." Elder Yan said vigilantly.

As the sound got closer, they saw a huge monster. The monster was covered with black scales, its eyes were as big as lanterns, and its mouth was full of sharp fangs.

"What a big guy." Fu Shaoping clenched the weapon in his hand, he could feel the powerful breath of the monster.
