I will survive with proficiency

A few months later.

Guan Xinyi brought news that her cheap dad was free recently and invited Chen Ping to visit the Floating Palace to talk about the opportunity to overcome the tribulation.

Not only Guan Dayan, but also the core members of the Guan family.

Taking into account the Xinyi colleagues and the results of the patrols of the Xu family sisters in the past few years, Chen Ping walked out of Yishui Villa for the first time in more than ten years.

The trip went smoothly and I met Guan Dayan at Guanjia Fu Palace.

"Nephew Chen Xian, you're fine, please sit down quickly." Unlike the first time they met back then, Guan Dayan was full of enthusiasm at this moment.

After welcoming Chen Ping to sit down and having his servants serve spiritual tea, he smiled and said:

"In the past few years of alchemy making, Chen Xian Nephew has asked me, the Guan family, to deliver the spiritual materials to Yishui Villa. I rarely go out. It is not easy to invite Chen Xian Nephew to go out."

Chen Ping smiled:

"Where, where."

"It's just that the murder of Master Hou left a deep shadow in this junior's heart. After all, my strength is far inferior to that of Master Hou, so I stay behind closed doors to reduce the risk of being killed."

Guan Dayan's heart froze when he heard this, thinking to himself that nephew Chen Xian was too afraid of death, right?

It's actually because of this.

How many years has it been?

Guan Dayan smiled:

"Nephew Chen Xian is overly worried. The incident involving Master Hou has been investigated clearly. His murder is entirely his personal grudge. It can be said that those who commit unjust acts will be punished by death. Nephew Chen Xian does not need to worry."

"Nephew Chen Xian, on the other hand, his cultivation has improved every time we meet. It's gratifying."

Chen Ping waved his hand:

"This little progress cannot be compared with the disciples of the Guan family."

There is nothing modest about this statement.

But there is some truth to it.

At least it makes sense to outsiders.

For example, this disciple of the Guan family who is about to undergo a catastrophe is said to be only in his early five hundred years, so he can be said to be in his prime.

At this age, he has reached the juncture of overcoming the tribulation, which can be said to be a genius.

Chen Ping is now over 500 years old and has not even reached the ninth level of Nascent Soul.

"Nephew Chen Xian is too modest. There are not many talented disciples of the Guan family. Nephew Chen Xian has a strong aura and a long connection. He may not be worse than anyone else."

Guan Dayan has been ups and downs in the world of immortality for hundreds of years, and he can occupy the position of the Guan family's alchemy elder, and his vision has never been weak.

In his eyes, Chen Ping was unremarkable at first sight, but after continuing to interact with him, he clearly felt that Chen Ping was completely different from other casual cultivators or young people.

Calm and unfazed when encountering difficulties.

Thoughtful and methodical.

The long aura displayed on his body also shows his steady progress in cultivation.

"Chen Xian's nephew, Yuan Ying, is in his late stage and has a handsome appearance. Currently, he only has one Taoist companion. Have you ever thought about finding one or two more?" Guan Dayan said with a smile.

That's because you don't know.

I have two now.

Chen Ping smiled lightly:

"This junior came to the Cangqing Ancient World alone. I am already very satisfied with the life I have now. I don't dare to expect too much."

Guan Dayan wanted to say something else, but at this time a burst of laughter came from outside:

"Haha, I kept you waiting for a long time."

The visitor was none other than Guan Zhiyang, who had been to Yishui Villa that year.

People from the core lineage of the Guan family.

This time the opportunity was exchanged, Chen Ping's alchemy for the Guan family has been reported, and the willingness to talk this time was also the intention of the core Guan family.

Guan Xinyi just told Chen Ping about this.

"I haven't seen you for many years. Nephew Chen Xian has made great progress in his cultivation."

"."

After a few people exchanged pleasantries, Guan Zhiyang said:

"I wonder if Chen Xiaoyou has brought the Infant Transformation Pill?"

"Of course. Please take a look at it, fellow Taoist Guan." Chen Ping took out the jade bottle.

Guan Zhiyang took the jade bottle, opened it and observed it carefully for a while, his eyes brightened slightly, and then he said calmly:

"Fellow Daoist Chen has been undertaking the alchemy task of my joints for more than a hundred years. In fact, he has accumulated enough merits. However, many opportunities in my Guan family are not open to the public. This is the case with this opportunity to observe the tribulation. To obtain it, it is not necessary to have enough merits. That’s fine. To be honest, the quality of Chen Xiaoyou’s two best-quality Yin Hua Dan is really good, I can’t say enough.”

"But, it's not enough"

Chen Ping said nothing and continued to wait for him to continue the conversation.

The plan I had previously proposed was to add two high-quality Infant Transformation Pills in exchange for merit. Since the Guan family is willing to meet, even if the two Infant Transformation Pills are not enough, the Guan family should have a potential plan.

It’s nothing more than continuing to add more money.

Sure enough, Guan Zhiyang didn't say anything when he saw Chen Ping.

He continued to put forward his plan tentatively.

That is to ask Chen Ping to promise to refine more than 50 furnaces of Huaying Dan for the Guan family.

The agreement signed at that time was for 50 furnaces of Huaying Dan. Now more than a hundred years later, Chen Ping has completed more than 40 furnaces of elixirs at the frequency of refining one furnace every 2-3 years. Only a few furnaces are left. deliver.

If Chen Ping regains his free body, and according to Chen Ping's rate and quality of achieving elixirs, he will be warmly welcomed out of the Guan family and into the sight of any family or sect.

Moreover, the passage between the Cang Qing Ancient World and the Human World is about to be opened, and Chen Ping may also leave.

The Guan family was naturally unwilling to give up such a good alchemist.

I want to take this as an opportunity to bind Chen Ping for another hundred years.

But in fact, this is nothing to Chen Ping.

He wasn't prepared to mess around.

In the end, after bargaining, Chen Ping won the opportunity to observe the tribulation at the cost of promising 30 furnaces. The people observing included him and his two wives.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, it's a pleasure to cooperate." Guan Zhiyang put away the new agreement and looked happy.

“A pleasure to work with.”

Chen Ping pretended to be taken advantage of by the Guan family, but he wanted this opportunity to observe so much that he had to sign the agreement with a bitter look.

actually.

For Chen Ping, even if the Guan family does not propose a new agreement, he will continue to trade with the Guan family as long as he does not travel far away.

You can get free elixirs, make money, and earn merit.

And I don't even have to worry about the most difficult to obtain raw materials.

The cost is almost zero.

Is there anything better than this in the world?

"Hey, it's almost done, are you pretending again? You are pretending to be so miserable, but you are secretly having fun in your heart, right? Thinking about deceiving those old guys from the Guan family again." On the way out, Guan Xinyi looked contemptuous and lowered his voice. Complain loudly.

What did you say about your father and uncle?

"Senior sister, you have to speak with a conscience. I had to refine elixirs for the Qianguan family for decades just for a chance to observe, and I am sorely disappointed." Chen Ping said sadly.

"Tch, it sounds like it's true." Guan Xinyi complained helplessly.

Chen Ping was too lazy to deal with the heartless Guan Xinyi.

After returning to Yishui Manor, he continued to practice.

More than two years later, the opportunity for the Guan family disciples to escape the tribulation came smoothly.

A little later than expected.

"Senior Sister Guan, I heard that this disciple who is crossing the tribulation is about the same age as you, senior sister?" Yu Lingchun was a little curious on the way to the Guan Family Floating Palace to cross the tribulation valley.

Guan Xinyi nodded:

"Much younger than me, he is a talented disciple of the Guan family in recent years."

"What are the chances of being promoted to a god?" Yu Lingchun asked again.

"The family has high hopes for him. He should have a good chance. He has great talent."

"."

Listening to the chat of the three women, Chen Ping did not interrupt.

Since I got the opportunity to observe, I have learned more or less about this disciple of the Guan family.

This disciple of the Guan family is extremely talented, somewhat similar to Baili Xianling from the Western Wilderness back then.

It should be because of his special physique.

It is equivalent to taking a breath or drinking a sip of water to make progress in cultivation.

Having a special physique and fast cultivation is a good thing in itself.

However, there are disadvantages in advancing too quickly in cultivation, that is, one's character, state of mind, soul, etc. cannot be sufficiently consolidated after promotion.

In addition, because the promotion is too fast, there is no time to take care of various spells, which will cause the monk's understanding of the spells of various realms to become weak and not in-depth.

These subtle differences cannot be reflected before Nascent Soul.

But at this moment of challenging Tianwei, even the smallest imperfections at the beginning will be infinitely magnified during the tribulation.

This disciple of the Guan family has received a lot of resource support from the family, but there are many things that cannot be fully compensated for by resources alone.

Chen Ping and others went through layers of investigation and finally arrived at the tribulation site of the main palace.

This tribulation field is somewhat similar to the Tianyin Immortal Sect's tribulation valley. In the center of Nuo Da's tribulation field is a simple tribulation platform.

Surrounding the Tribulation Field are the Guanmo Peaks.

The difference is that every observation peak here has a fixed observation platform.

The viewing platform is shrouded in a specific formation.

After the observers enter the platform, once the formation is locked, they cannot go out on their own.

This is mainly to prevent the observers from intentionally or unintentionally interfering with the people who are going through the tribulation.

Chen Ping and Senior Sister Guan were on the same platform.

Standing on the platform and looking around, you can see a young man crossing his legs on the Tribulation Platform, looking high and high.

There were people watching on the platforms on the peaks around the tribulation field. The scene was much bigger than when Fairy Biyuan was crossing the tribulation.

On the main peak, an old man stood with his hands behind his hands, staring quietly at the middle of the Tribulation Platform.

Chen Ping guessed that it was the ancestor of the Guan family.

Soon the tribulation began, with the first thunder and the second thunder.

Chen Ping did not pay attention to the young man's activities, but let himself go and allowed himself to seriously understand the laws of heaven in the thunder tribulation.

To experience the thunder in it.

In a daze, Chen Ping seemed to feel that he was going through a catastrophe and was being bombarded by thunder from the sky.

Every thunder struck him in his mind, in his Nascent Soul, and in his body.

Boom, boom.

The abundant thunder rhyme fills the consciousness space.

Chen Ping is like a young seedling that has just sprouted, greedily absorbing the spring rain that is as precious as oil.

It wasn't until a scream from beside him that he was brought back to reality.

Only then did I know that the young man from the Guan family had passed through the tribulation and reached the seventh thunder.

Chen Ping shifted his attention, no longer absorbing Lei Yun selflessly, but divided his consciousness to pay attention to the actions of the young man on the scene to overcome the tribulation.

These measures also inspired him in his subsequent tribulations.

"It shouldn't be a big problem. It's just that the body has been destroyed, but the foundation is still there." Guan Xinyi beside him was also watching the situation on the field.

Chen Ping, however, vaguely noticed something was wrong.

The young man's mood was a little confused.

"Boom."

Another loud noise was heard, and the young man in the field instantly fell down, his flesh and blood mangled. A Nascent Soul Dao almost floated into the air, but was forcibly pulled back by the dazed young man.

Several lightning protection measures fell apart.

The eighth thunder.

Resisted.

Seeing that the ninth thunderbolt was forming rapidly, the young man looked towards the dark clouds with his pale face, and threw another Pantian Lingbao with a wave of his hand.

He took out a pill and took it.

Just when everyone thought that the young man had a great chance of winning, the loud voice of the ancestor of the main peak covered the Tribulation Platform:

"Don't be afraid. You are well prepared and talented. If you have a chance to withstand the last thunder, you must have confidence."

Everyone looked at the ancestor. It was obvious that the young man still had some strength left, and he still had the most powerful spirit treasure that he had yet to use. Logically speaking, he should have a chance of winning against the last thunder.

Why did the ancestor suddenly issue a reminder?

At the critical moment, the best choice is to let the young man overcome the disaster on his own.

Chen Ping understood why the ancestor said what he said.

Teenagers are not just mentally unstable.

Moreover, at the moment when he looked at the ninth dark cloud in the sky, Tiandao, there was actually a flash of fear in his pupils.

When going through a tribulation, the most important thing to avoid is fear.

This sky thunder is difficult.

really.

After the ninth most dangerous thunderbolt fell, the boy was entangled in crackling lightning and thrown away. The Nascent Soul Taoist form floated into the air and quickly faded.

"Why!"

A sigh of vicissitudes covered the entire audience.

The ancestor suddenly took action and forcibly pulled the Nascent Soul, which was about to collapse, into the young man's body.

The boy was floating in the air, lifeless.

"Ancestor, Yang'er, how is he?" An old man looked anxious.

The ancestor took a picture of the young man's body with one hand, took a look at it, and just left a faint sentence:

"not dead."

Then it disappeared.

Also missing was the young man.

not dead.

There was no such majestic power and Taoism as Biyuan Fairy had after she successfully transcended the tribulation.

Chen Ping sighed lightly.

It is never easy for Yuanying to overcome the tribulation.

If you fail to overcome the tribulation, even if you save your life, you will never succeed in overcoming the tribulation again in this life.

There are only a few transformed gods in the whole world, and it is not without reason.

Even the Cangqing Ancient World, which is full of Taoist charm, is not much better.

"It's my first time to watch the Tribulation. I didn't expect it to be so dangerous." On the way back, Guan Xinyi didn't see much sadness and joy on his face, but there was a bit of fear of the way of heaven.

Looking a little depressed.

It is a good thing to have awe of heaven.

But the fear passed.

Chen Ping saw this and said:

"Everyone's situation is different. Some people look strong, but they may not be so; some people have special circumstances, but the details are unknown to us."

"There is no need to lose confidence in oneself because others are stronger than us but fail to overcome the tribulation. Everyone is different. What we need is to understand ourselves, and then fully absorb the insights from observation to figure out our own way of coping."

"This is the greatest significance of observing and transcending tribulations."

Guan Xinyi looked at Chen Ping and nodded gently:

"Um."

Rarely quiet.

Yu Lingchun and Yun Lingshan also nodded lightly.

Back at Yishui Manor, the three of them were all busy trying to understand what they had experienced during the Guan Modu Tribulation, and each went into seclusion.

The failure of the Guan family boy to escape the tribulation was handled in a low-key manner and rarely mentioned.

In the shops in Ronghua City, the banners that had already been printed, 'Congratulations to the Guan family for adding a True God of Transformation and celebrating by jumping the real estate price,' were silently taken away, as if this incident had never happened.

The casual cultivators were afraid of the pressure of the Guan family and rarely discussed it in public.

On the other hand, in Ronghua City of the Yu family, I heard that the Yu family held a big promotion event in the city to celebrate an elder who came out of the mountain. Shuangling City was in the limelight for a while.

For this reason, Chen Ping also received an invitation from Miss Six.

[Little Fairy: Shuangling City is currently having a big sale on various resources, which are much cheaper than Ronghua City. Since you are short of spiritual stones, come to Shuangling City to stock up on some supplies, which are of high quality and low price. 】

Chen Ping: Get out.

A few years later.

"call."

Chen Ping pressed down with both hands, ending a round of practicing the Demon Emperor's Immortal Kung Fu.

‘Physical training has encountered a bottleneck. ’

'Progress is getting slower and slower. ’

‘Could it be that the body refining also encountered the calamity of the Yuan Ti realm? ’

'But my body-refining path is a wild way, a secondary method. It stands to reason that the Nascent Soul Tribulation, which I majored in twice, was also a test of the body. In fact, it was equivalent to the Yuan-Ti Tribulation. , shouldn’t be. ’

‘Or is it that the technique itself will become extremely slow at this stage? ’

Chen Ping was a little confused.

It seems that I need to find some information and take a look.

A few months later, Chen Ping escaped silently and went to the place where the puppet was buried.

I haven't been here for many years. Because the cellar is protected by formations and the location is deep enough, all the puppets are intact.

Chen Ping collected these puppets one by one.

He didn't intend to use these puppets for practice. Using puppets for practice was somewhat evil.

I don’t know much about the art of puppetry.

The gain outweighs the loss if you leave hidden diseases during the cultivation process.

The greatest value lies in the use of these puppets for self-defense.

There are also several fourth-level puppets among the puppets who are comparable to the later cultivation level of Nascent Soul.

With so many puppets being used at the same time, if it had been the time when he met the white-bearded Taoist, he would have been able to escape from these white-bearded Taoists even without Master Xiyue taking action.

After returning from the forest, Chen Ping did not go back directly to Yishui Villa, but went to Ronghua City first.

The reason why I chose this time to visit Yishui Villa was because there was a grand auction in Ronghua City recently.

Judging from the news brought back by Yun Lingshan, there is a top-notch fourth-level life-extending pill in this auction-'Nanyantian Qiandan'.

The best, bar none.

Now that I have a lot of money, I naturally want to give it a try.

A few days later, the auction went on as scheduled, and Chen Ping spent more than 30,000 top-grade spiritual stones and successfully grabbed the 'Nanyantian Gandan'.

In addition, two messenger treasure discs were also photographed.

Taking advantage of the grand occasion brought by the auction, Chen Ping took the opportunity to buy some introductory books on body training in the store.

Then quietly returned to Yishui Villa.
