Immortal Palace Longevity

Sitting cross-legged, tapping his knees with his fingers, Liu Yu repeatedly pondered the details of breaking through the Ten Thousand Demons Formation.

After all, if there was any omission in the process, it would be an irreversible end, and the dream of immortality would end here.

After thinking again and again, he was really relieved after confirming that there was no omission.

"For now, I should be able to rest for a while."

Thinking like this, Liu Yu felt relieved and finally relaxed.

Shaking his head, the storage ring on his finger lit up slightly, and a blue jade box with a soul-sealing talisman appeared in front of him.

And then, a ring with an ancient style also appeared in front of him.

It was the demon pill obtained from the purple poisonous lizard and the storage ring obtained from the hardworking old monk.

"It's a pity that at that time, we pursued the fastest way to kill the target and were eager to get rid of the entanglement of the demon cultivators."

"Otherwise, there would be a few more demon pills."

Looking at the two objects floating in front of him, Liu Yu shook his head slightly, thinking of the several demons that were directly destroyed, and couldn't help feeling a little sorry.

But this was also helpless. Under the circumstances at that time, he could not put himself in danger for the growth of "Qingyang Magic Fire" and "Ten Thousand Souls Banner".

"Crack"

The thought of pity flashed by, Liu Yu eliminated the distracting thoughts, tore off the "Spirit Sealing Talisman" and opened the blue jade box, revealing one of the black demon pills.

Visible to the naked eye, the surface of the demon pill was swirling with wisps of purple-black demon power, which was extremely pure and rich.

As soon as it was exposed to the air, the demon pill exuded a strange fragrance, but in fact it contained deadly poison.

If it was a Qi-refining cultivator, just smelling it would cause the magic power to stagnate, and the body would quickly lose consciousness.

If it was inhaled into the body for a long time, it would definitely die.

For ordinary mortals, even if they just smelled a breath, they would die immediately!

This is the domineering part of the third-level poison, which even surpasses the cognition of some secular mortals and low-level cultivators about "poison".

However, the strong physique brought by practicing "Star True Body" naturally has extraordinary resistance to toxins. As long as Liu Yu does not come into direct contact, it will not be a big deal.

Just smelling the breath like this, no discomfort will occur even if it takes a long time.

Looking at the demon pill in front of him, Liu Yu moved his hands in a row, and cast a spell on it.

He has been very skilled in such a process after many times of manipulation, and there is no need to worry about accidents.

"Extract the soul!"

Taking out the magic weapon "Ten Thousand Souls Banner", Liu Yu cast dozens of spells and pointed at the black banner.

The next moment, countless gloomy and cold Yin Qi quickly surged out of the banner and entangled the black demon pill.

"Buzz"

The black demon pill trembled slightly, and the purple-black spiritual light lit up to resist the entry of Yin Qi.

But almost at the same time, the spell mark that Liu Yu had cast earlier also took effect at the same time.

Densely packed twisted marks appeared on the surface of the small demon pill, emitting an unsettling breath.

Soon, the purple-black spiritual light was suppressed and returned to calm.

Seeing this, Liu Yu's spell immediately changed.

The cold and gloomy Yin Qi surged, condensed into several almost tangible black chains, and forcibly inserted into the demon pill, as if looking for something.

"Roar~!"

In the void, the wailing of the demon beast seemed to be heard.

After only two or three breaths, the black chain seemed to have found the target and began to pull out.

A purple-black light ball emitting rich demonic energy and soul fluctuations was soon pulled out.

It was the essence of the purple poisonous lizard. Strictly speaking, it can also be called the Yuanshen, but it is still in the embryonic state of the Yuanshen.

"Buzz"

The demon pill trembled again, and the trembling amplitude was more intense, as if it was trying its best to protect the essence of the purple poisonous lizard.

But no matter what, it was suppressed by the spell cast by Liu Yu.

Several black chains wrapped around it, and then with a little force, the essence of the purple poisonous lizard was pulled out of the demon pill in a few breaths.

Suddenly, the purple-black spirit floated in front of him, constantly emitting spiritual fluctuations.

It was like a curse, constantly transmitting spiritual information to Liu Yu.

However, Liu Yu seemed not to hear it, and the spell in his hand did not stop for a moment, controlling the Wanhun Banner to emit more Yin Qi.

The gloomy and cold Yin Qi surged, and soon it completely enveloped the purple poisonous lizard spirit and began to refine it.

"Roar~"

The purple-black light shone through the black air, as if the wail of a monster sounded in the void.

However, Liu Yu was already familiar with these, and his expression did not change at that time, and then he cast a spell.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was unknown how long it had been, and the spiritual fluctuations in the black air continued to decrease until they disappeared.

As Liu Yu cast the last spell, the Yin Qi that was condensed and almost materialized suddenly dispersed and returned to the Wanhun Banner.

In the original place, there was only a beast-shaped spirit the size of a human head floating.

A closer look revealed that it was a mini purple poisonous lizard that had shrunk countless times.

Although it had condensed, most of the essence had been dyed black.

The originally strong demonic energy had now become extremely thin, and instead was filled with a faint ghostly aura.

"Not bad."

"After some refining, it can still maintain a combat power of about the middle stage of the third order, and the power of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner can be greatly improved."

"But it is only roughly refined at the moment, and it will take some time before it can really take shape."

"It must be placed in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to be nurtured, and it can only be used after it has truly transformed into an evil ghost."

Looking at his "masterpiece" in front of him, Liu Yu nodded slightly, feeling quite satisfied.

Although it looks a little evil and ominous, it really improves his strength.

It doesn't need to be nurtured, just keep collecting various kinds of souls or spirits, and it can quickly improve its power.

He is generally satisfied with the magic weapon, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

As the number of cultivators and demon cultivators killed accumulates, the power of this treasure will continue to grow, and it will not be eliminated with the improvement of his own cultivation.

It can be foreseen that, unlike other magic weapons, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner has a very promising future.

"When it is used, it is full of ghostly spirits."

"I wonder if it will cause misunderstanding and be regarded as a demon cultivator?"

"......"

Liu Yu thought wildly as he gently shook the black banner in his hand and put the evil ghost refined by the purple poisonous lizard spirit into the banner.

Although he never minded using the means of the magic, he didn't want to be "misunderstood", to be mistaken for a demon cultivator, and become the object of "demon slaying and demon exorcism".

"Well... the Ten Thousand Souls Banner cannot be used as a conventional means."

"It is full of ghostly spirits, which is really detrimental to the image and can easily arouse the hostility of some righteous monks."

After this thought flashed through his mind, Liu Yu put the Ten Thousand Souls Banner aside and took the storage ring he got from the old monk.

He injected mana, cast a series of spells, and began to sacrifice and refine.

It is different from the storage bag that can be used as soon as it is obtained and does not need to be sacrificed.

The storage ring not only has a wider internal space, but also has improved safety. Just like magic weapons, it must be sacrificed and branded with spiritual consciousness before it can be used.

The storage bag does not need to recognize the owner and can be used as soon as it is obtained, so it is very lacking in safety.

Some high-level monks with extremely powerful spiritual consciousness can even quietly check the situation in the storage bag from a long distance.

For example, Liu Yu, with his current spiritual consciousness strength, can easily break through the barrier of the storage bag and explore the situation inside.

But if it is a storage ring, no matter how powerful the spiritual consciousness is, without the sacrifice and refinement, there is no way to know what is inside.

This point has long been confirmed by countless cultivators, so the value of the two is so different.

A storage ring is equivalent to half of a magic weapon, and the price starts at at least 30,000 spirit stones.

The owner has fallen, and the original spiritual consciousness imprint in the storage ring has begun to dissipate.

Under the continuous flushing of Liu Yu's magic power and spiritual consciousness, it soon collapsed.

In just a quarter of an hour, the storage ring was sacrificed and refined.

As soon as he thought about it, all the items in it appeared in the room in an instant, densely piled up into a small mountain.

As far as the eye can see, there is a pile of new or old books, occupying most of the small mountain.

"Rebirth Sutra" "Saving People Sutra"

"Lingyan Sutra" "Diamond Sutra"

Liu Yu glanced and saw the names of several scriptures, and the pages had some wrinkles, which were obviously turned from time to time.

"It seems that this person is indeed an old monk who has read a lot of scriptures. Maybe he is a "highly respected" monk in Rushi Temple."

"However, good and evil are only relative. Whether one's faith is pious can indeed reflect one's goodness or evil to a certain extent."

"But there is no necessary connection!"

Looking at the pile of scriptures in front of him, he waved his hand expressionlessly and swept them aside.

On the spot, there was only a small pile of spiritual stones, a few talismans, a few bottles of elixirs, a golden bowl and a golden round bead.

"Top-grade spiritual stones"

Looking at the pile of spiritual stones, Liu Yu's heart moved. He counted and found that there were five top-grade spiritual stones, worth 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

The low-grade and medium-grade spiritual stones together were about 30,000, a total of 80,000 spiritual stones.

After being surprised, Liu Yu waved his hand casually and put the pile of spiritual stones into his storage ring.

Now is different from the past. Now top-grade spiritual stones are not too rare for him.

The several spiritual stone mines occupied by the sect can produce a small amount of high-quality spiritual stones.

Although the bulk of the money was taken by Tianfeng Patriarch, they, the Jindan elders, can also share a little.

The annual salary of the Jindan elders is sometimes paid in high-quality spiritual stones.

The price of rapid progress in cultivation is the rapid consumption of spiritual stones in hand. Before entering the Hengduan Mountains, Liu Yu specially prepared 500,000 spiritual stones for emergency use.

But after eight years of luxurious cultivation, plus the exchange of "Golden Scale Fruit Tree" with Mu Yunyan, there are only 390,000 left.

Now with the contribution of the hardworking old monk, the spiritual stones in his hand have returned to 470,000, which is no problem to support for thirty or forty years.

Putting away the spiritual stones, Liu Yu looked at the golden bowl and the golden round bead.

Both of them exude the power of magic weapons, which is definitely not comparable to magic weapons and spiritual weapons. The surface is bright gold, which is not much different from the color of the Buddha statue.

According to the breath and appearance, it can be easily recognized that this is the magic weapon of the Buddhist monks.

"Arhat Bowl"

Liu Yu first picked up the golden bowl and looked at it carefully. He saw three small characters on the bottom of the bowl, and learned the name of this magic weapon.

Unactivated, the "Arhat Bowl" is only the size of a small bowl. Except for being golden, it is no different from an ordinary bowl.

"Not bad."

After looking at it for a while, Liu Yu was quite satisfied with this magic weapon and decided to sacrifice it first and keep it for his own use.

At that time, the hardworking old monk faced four attacks of the same level at the same time. He used this treasure to resist, but he was only slightly injured, which left a deep impression on him.

From this, it can be judged that as the life magic weapon of the hardworking old monk, the "Arhat Bowl" has been nurtured for hundreds of years, and its power is already very considerable.

Even if Liu Yu only uses it as an ordinary magic weapon, the effect will not be too bad, and it can be used as a backup option for the golden jade ring.

With two magic weapons, there are more choices according to various situations, and it is more calm to deal with them.

Moreover, compared with attack magic weapons, defense magic weapons are more scarce. After all, no matter what the situation, saving life is the first choice.

Then, Liu Yu put down the "Arhat Bowl" and picked up the golden round bead to look at it.

"Vajra Bead"

Finding three small words on one side, Liu Yu learned the name of this magic weapon.

The Vajra Bead is only the size of a walnut and looks very ordinary, but the magic weapon aura it exudes is genuine.

Its attack method should be similar to magic weapons such as "Seal" and "Ding", and it takes the path of suppressing people with power.

"The power is average."

After a brief look, Liu Yu put down the "Vajra Bead" without the idea of ​​using it himself, and planned to use it to barter with other monks in the future.

This treasure is not the life magic weapon of the old monk Kuxin. Its power is very ordinary. In terms of offensive power, it is far inferior to the sunset golden rainbow gun.

Moreover, he already has many means of attack, enough to deal with complex situations. The "Vajra Bead" cannot bring improvement, so there is no need to sacrifice it.

Putting down the two magic weapons, Liu Yu looked at the last few bottles of pills and a few talismans.

The few bottles of pills are all elixirs needed for fighting, which can be used to deal with various complex situations, healing, detoxification, recovery of mana, etc.

Basically, as long as the pills that may be used, the old monk Kuxin has prepared them. Obviously, he has considered various emergencies. He is worthy of being an experienced "old brand golden elixir".

It's a pity that he didn't have enough strength to offend Liu Yu, and ended up with no body left.

"In the middle stage of the golden elixir, this person's wealth can only be said to be average."

After the inventory was completed, Liu Yu shook his head.

After a round of inventory, he only got two magic weapons and 80,000 spirit stones, and he was a little disappointed.

But this is normal, most of the monks are not well-off.

With two magic weapons, one for attack and one for defense, the wealth of the old monk is not bad, but it is not good either.

This can be seen from the fact that he does not have a bottle of elixir to improve his magic power.

Perhaps he has used it up in eight years, but it is more likely that he did not prepare it.

As for the last few talismans, they are three ordinary middle-grade spells, including attack, defense and auxiliary.

But now this kind of talisman is useless to Liu Yu, and a random attack from a magic weapon is more powerful than three middle-grade spells.

Not counting the golden jade ring, even the body-protecting flame shield can be comparable to a third-level middle-grade spell, and it can be activated in a thought, which is much more convenient than talismans.

After the inventory was completed, Liu Yu then put the diamond beads and talisman elixirs into the storage ring.

And a large pile of Buddhist scriptures, after thinking about it, all were put into the storage ring.

Although I don't have much feeling for Buddhism, some works of enlightened monks do contain profound knowledge of cultivating immortals.

If I have free time in the future, I can still look through them. After all, knowledge is accumulated in daily life.

After completing the inventory in a familiar way, Liu Yu took the Arhat Bowl in his hand, injected mana into it and began to offer sacrifices.

As soon as the Dantian mana was raised, the thick and pure mana was instantly circulated and injected into the golden bowl to remove the remaining mana breath of the painstaking old Taoist.

The Arhat Bowl has been offered sacrifices for hundreds of years, and the remaining mana breath is deeply rooted and cannot be removed in a short time.

So this time, he only planned to offer sacrifices once, stamp his own spiritual imprint, and then warm it up like boiling a frog in warm water from time to time in the future.

"Buzz"

After injecting mana, the Arhat Bowl glowed with golden light, and the power of the magic weapon level filled the room.

Fortunately, there was a formation to block it, so he didn't rush out of the room, otherwise it would definitely affect others.

This situation proves that this treasure is very resistant to Liu Yu's magic power, and it is difficult to sacrifice.

But he just had a blank expression and patiently consumed the power of this treasure.

Without the support of the painstaking old monk, the Arhat Bowl was ultimately rootless water. After a while, its power began to weaken and its spiritual light dimmed.

This sacrifice took half a day to complete.

Half a day later, looking at the golden bowl floating in front of him, Liu Yu's mind moved.

The next moment, the Arhat Bowl surrounded his body and began to rotate at a high speed.

"The magic power is running inside it, and it is still not running smoothly. It can only exert about 70% of its original power."

"There is no better way, it can only be slowly adjusted through time."

"At this time, it is better to complete daily practice."

After testing the Arhat Bowl for a while, Liu Yu commented in his heart and put it into the storage ring.

Although he was a little disappointed, he had gained a lot from breaking through the Ten Thousand Monsters Formation this time.

Not only did the magic fire get a lot of fuel, but also spirit stones and magic weapons, so after being a little safe, he was in a relatively happy mood.

After calming down, Liu Yu took out a jade bottle and swallowed a "Purple Yuan Pill" into his stomach.

Then he closed his eyes, operated the fundamental technique "Qingyang Gong", and began his daily practice.

Eight years have passed, and Zhuo Mengzhen, Mu Yunyan and others, even if they had prepared cultivation pills before, have almost run out at this time, so their cultivation progress is slow.

But Liu Yu is different. He has already prepared 500,000 spirit stones, and there is a fairy house to promote the growth of spirit herbs, so he can refine pills at any time.

Because a lot of time was spent on the road, the speed of cultivation was inevitably affected, but compared with the other people, it was still a leap forward.

As the technique was running, a green light gradually appeared on Liu Yu's face, changing from bright to dark.

After completing the Qingyang Gong, he practiced the "Magic Method of Conserving the Spirit" and "True Body of the Stars" in turn. After practicing Qi, Spirit, and Body, another half day passed.

"Swish"

In the tall and wide room, Liu Yu was sweating profusely.

His fists flashed azure light, sometimes turning silver and orange-red, and the three-color spiritual light on the fist tip flowed repeatedly.

This caused the room to be hot and cold, as if it was exposed to the sun in the last moment, and it was like falling into an ice cave in the next moment.

Judging from the surface alone, the temperature difference was at least 200 degrees.

Some objects were covered with frost in the last moment, and were soaked in hot water in the next moment, changing over and over again.

"Hu~"

After three sets of "Meteor Fist", Liu Yu stood still and exhaled a long breath.

After completing the training, the moment his mind relaxed, a deep fatigue quickly came over him, which was simply irresistible!

The tense journey for months, coupled with the continuous high-intensity fighting, consumed his mind.

Even if his body was more resistant than several teammates, Liu Yu was not much better in terms of mental consumption.

At this moment, he was tired and had no intention of forcing himself. In this state, doing anything would be twice as effective.

He quickly washed up and lay on the stone bed to sleep.

The sun set and rose again, and he slept for two days and two nights.

...

Two days later, Liu Yu woke up slowly.

Because of the formation, the cave was not exposed to the sun. Only the sunstone was radiating light all the time, making people not know what year it was.

He counted with his fingers and found that it was Chenshi two days later.

After coming to his senses, Liu Yu got up and washed up, then went to the hall of the room and slowly brewed a cup of spiritual tea.

Then, he took out a book written by a foundation-building cultivator about the practice experience of magic and flipped through it.

Although it was written by a foundation-building cultivator, he carefully selected them from the sect's Sutra Pavilion. Being able to enter the Sutra Pavilion, he naturally has unique features.

Some novel thinking directions would even amaze even Jindan cultivators, who exclaimed that they had gained a lot after flipping through them.

For example, the "Mystery of the Golden Spirit" that Liu Yu had seen before, and the "World of Flame" in his hand.

The book "World of Flame" is different from the understanding of most cultivators about the fire attribute. The author believes that flames can not only destroy, but also bring new life.

He believes that if the fire attribute is limited to destruction, it is too narrow.

So this foundation-building cultivator named "True Cultivator of Sacrificing Fire" has been studying the "life" side of the fire attribute all his life and has conducted countless personal experiments.

It's a pity that no breakthrough was made in the end.

According to legend, this person was ranked among the top three heroes and four heroes for his outstanding fire magic.

Unfortunately, he failed to break through the bottleneck of the golden elixir and fell under the heavenly tribulation.

Only the book "Flame World" has been circulating in the sect's Sutra Pavilion, and Liu Yu accidentally found a copy.

"Swish" "Swish"

The room was silent, with only the sound of pages turning, which lasted for a long time.

Liu Yu was so absorbed in reading that he didn't even notice that the spiritual tea had cooled down.

After four hours, there was a noise outside the room. A cultivator came to visit, and he reluctantly looked away.

"The higher the realm, the more convenient it is to explore the truth and have the capital to go further."

"But everything is always unexpected."

"What a pity."

Liu Yu shook his head, feeling a little regretful that the foundation-building cultivator with the Taoist name "Jihuo" failed to condense the golden elixir.

Otherwise, the "Flame World" he saw today might have a sequel, which would record more knowledge about fire attributes.

A thin book, but it contains the life's work of a foundation-building cultivator.

He carefully smoothed the wrinkles, put it into the storage ring with great care, and then opened the room formation.

"Boom boom"

The stone door slowly moved to both sides, making a dull sound.

The person who came was Mu Yunyan.

She was still wearing a pink palace dress, dressed like a girl, with her hands folded on her abdomen, standing quietly outside the door.

A kind of "nobleness" that was much better than that of a secular princess, but it came naturally, so that ordinary cultivators could not feel offended.
