Mysterious Catastrophe

Amidst the flames, a black spirit seal was almost formed.

Over the years, apart from practicing, Aaron has been studying the ways of alchemy, weapon refining, and talisman making...

Through the inheritance of the second-level weapon refining from the auction, he successfully refined the top-grade and top-level magical weapons, and he can be regarded as one of the second-level refining masters.

After all, if you are willing to spend nearly 40 years on the way of refining weapons, you can always gain something.

And after being promoted to a second-tier refiner, he began to try to create a 'spiritual weapon' for himself.

In the end, he chose the 'Black Jade Seal' which had the best compatibility with him among the specific descriptions of the spirit tools.

Among the refining tools, magic tools of special shapes such as mirrors, pagodas, and seals are always more difficult than ordinary knives and swords.

And correspondingly, it will also have some special abilities.

This 'Black Jade Seal' combines offense and defense, and its compatibility is very compatible with 'Ming Yu Jue', so Aaron chose to create it.

"disease!"

At this moment, seeing that the fire had reached the last step, Aaron bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The blood drops fell into the pitch-black flames, turned into scarlet lines, spread on the pitch-black jade seal, and then quickly merged into it, disappearing.

After completing the last step of 'blood sacrifice', Aaron suddenly felt that there was a close connection between himself and the Black Jade Seal.

This kind of intimacy is even higher than that of Xiaoqing.

He retracted the Black Sun Devil Fire, and waved lightly: "Come!"

The black jade seal immediately flew into his palm, but he saw that it was only the size of an egg, the whole body was pitch black, warm and moist like jade, and the seal was carved into the shape of a beast.

This beast is a combination of a turtle and a snake, with a head like a dragon, a body like a turtle, claws like a jellyfish, and a tail like a snake... It is a basaltic beast!It also has the demeanor of a third-order longevity turtle!

"I feel like I can drive it with a single thought... I have even practiced psychics, and it will automatically warn and protect the Lord... Although it is a high-grade magic weapon now, I don't need it at this time!"

Aaron opened his mouth, swallowed the black jade seal, and cultivated it with the vitality of his dantian.

"One day, this seal will surely shock the far west!"

He stroked his dantian, with a satisfied smile on his face: "This [-]th birthday gift is not bad!"

Aaron is now four hundred years old!

Of course, in the eyes of the Li family members, the Supreme Elder Li Qingjing is not yet a hundred years old, so young!

He glanced at his attribute bar:

[Name: Fang Yu (Aaron)]

[Talent: Immortality]

【Age: 400】

【Boundary: Middle Foundation Establishment Stage】

[Cultivation method: Ming Yu Jue No. 12 layer (2000/2000)]

[Spell: ...]

[Martial arts: ...]

【技能：二阶玉骨（599/1000）、二阶制符（789/1000）、二阶炼器（900/1000）、二阶炼丹（811/1000）】

……

"Actually, over the years, I have spent the most effort on alchemy... However, alchemy is indeed much more difficult than crafting talismans. Even though I have a third-level inheritance, I can only upgrade my alchemy to the second level at this time." stage..."

However, although it is the second level, Aaron has already been able to refine the elixir that is very beneficial to the enhancement of the mana of the foundation cultivator.

It is precisely because of this that his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, not in the 60 years as originally planned, but in more than 40 years to complete the mid-term cultivation of the foundation.

This made Aaron have to sigh with emotion that the combination of spiritual veins and pills is indeed equivalent to opening a cultivation accelerator for monks.

"Four hundred years old..."

"Well, life should have a sense of ritual. In the future, every hundred years, I still have to have a birthday for myself."

When Aaron walked out of the refining room, his maid was no longer Li Qinglan.

After all, nearly 40 years have passed, and the original girl has already become an old woman.

And after observing for decades and confirming that the other party did not recall those memories, Aaron let the other party go.

"I have seen my ancestor!"

The two maids bowed immediately.

When the news of Aaron's departure came out, the head of the Li family 'Li Linghai' immediately brought people to visit him.

At this time, Aaron's prestige in the Li family has reached its peak!

Not only did he save the family from danger back then, but he also cleverly resolved the difficulties made by the emperor.

And he is already a second-tier alchemist. After the transformation of the Li family, with the improvement of Aaron's alchemy skills, the spiritual stones he earned from the elixir business are also increasing day by day.

Even, Aaron trained two first-tier alchemist apprentices for the Li family to ensure an orderly inheritance!

One by one, even if Li Qinglan suddenly regained her memory and ran out to shout, who would believe it?

In other words, even if you believe it, the Li family will be the first to kill Li Qinglan!

"Looking at the happy face of the Supreme Elder, this retreat must have gone very smoothly... The family has nothing to do recently, and the income from the elixir shop..."

Li Linghai stood respectfully, reporting the affairs of the clan one by one, without the slightest demeanor of a patriarch.

At this time, Aaron's power in the Li family, along with the death of a group of old people such as Li Zitong, has reached its limit!

Up to now, it is a matter of one sentence to replace the Patriarch and the principals of all parties.

"Hehe... Those young emperors in ancient times, once they had the power in their hands, they followed orders. They were just fooling around..."

'As everyone knows...Youth is the greatest capital!Especially things like the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager who are involved in politics... With their youth, they can kill the previous generation! '

'As soon as he was in power, he yelled to be in charge of the government and to take over power... Isn't this making himself uncomfortable?Even if the coup wins and the country is in turmoil, what good is there? '

'I'm not in a hurry, take your time...'

'Now the younger generations are almost dying of old age... I am the only old ancestor of the Li family, who else can resist me? '

Aaron drank the spiritual tea slowly, listening to the reports from the Li family members, with a relaxed expression on his face.

At the beginning, he appeased the old man of the Li family, but he didn't take over the power. He just relied on time to kill the previous generation of the Li family.

When they are dead, the power will naturally concentrate on themselves, and there is no need to resort to any tricks or factional struggles...

This is the advantage of foundation-building monk Shouyuan!

Even Li Qingjing himself can rely on this method to kill his elders and peers and monopolize the power... This is also the way to minimize the loss of power.

However, today's "Qing" generation of the Li family is generally quite old, and many of them have died of old age. Let the next generation of "Ling" generation appear on the stage. Facing the old uncle Aaron, he has no confidence and seniority advantage. This kind of flattery and flattery seems to be fun.

Chapter 644 Black Demon Sect

After taking care of the family affairs, Aaron put down the spirit tea and looked at the head of the family, Li Linghai: "Although my family has made a lot of money, the small details are no match for the general trend...Nowadays, the far west is turbulent, so you must be careful."

"Follow the order of the ancestor..."

Li Linghai and others bowed and saluted: "Speaking of this... old ancestor, there is already news about what you ordered to inquire last time."

"Oh? Tell me."

Aaron narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Over the years, the world of cultivating immortals in my westernmost land has not been peaceful. The most important thing is that some forces have invaded from the world of cultivating immortals in Dagan... This point is now the consensus of all the immortal sects."

Li Linghai said: "In the past few decades, those originally top-secret news have finally been leaked... The one who invaded my land in the extreme west is the Daqian Yuanying faction - the 'Black Demon Sect'... This sect has been Qianqian expansion failed and was suppressed, so he sent a sub-rudder to develop in the far west... As soon as he arrived, he defeated the Haoran Sect and forcibly seized the entire territory of Yuanchen Kingdom, and continued to expand outwards, forcing Dehaoranzong had to retreat westward into Wuguo, and the Black Blood Sect was destroyed because of this..."

This is all about what happened decades ago, but Aaron, who has personally experienced it, is still there. Hearing this, his face was neither happy nor angry, and he calmly said: "Continue!"

"And the world of cultivating immortals in the far western countries also rose up to resist, and the war continued... There were countless deaths and injuries among immortal cultivators, so Lin Guoneng calmed down a little bit, but at this time, chaos gradually emerged..."

"The ancestors of the Jindan sects felt this, and they had started connecting together more than ten years ago. They wanted to form an alliance to jointly fight against the 'Black Demon Sect'. But a few days ago... this alliance was finally formally established, named "Extreme Western Union", elected Haoran Sect's "Sacred Heart Scholar", a late alchemy cultivator, as the leader, and my Lin Guo Qingding Sect is also among them... According to the covenant, each sect must not attack each other, but must join forces to fight Black Demon Sect!"

"According to my nephew, the Great War may be just around the corner, and it will sweep the entire Far West and affect countless immortal cultivators!"

Li Linghai is indeed the head of the family chosen by Aaron himself, and he is very good at analyzing problems.

"There are no eggs under the nest... Once the war resumes, our Li family will not be alone." Aaron sneered: "Look at the split between the Western Union and the Black Demon Sect. How will the outcome be?"

"Old Ancestor, I'm afraid this is not important... Even if the Western Union can win, wouldn't the Black Demon Sect send experts to help out?"

Li Qinghai smiled wryly: "If a Nascent Soul is sent, the Western Union will collapse immediately..."

"Among all the juniors, you are the smartest." Aaron nodded in satisfaction: "To solve the chaos in the extreme west, the roots are still at work!"

"My ancestors have a great opinion...my nephew thinks that there are many smart people in the Western Union, so they must have seen this, so maybe some people have already tried to go to Dagan, especially...to contact the rival sect of the Black Demon Sect, and try to get support."

The enemy of the enemy is a friend, and the cultivators of immortals are also very familiar with this.

Even, Aaron knew through the Shen family that a monk like Shen Qingchen, who has rich travel experience and explored the boundless desert, has become very popular recently, and has been treated with courtesy and even vigorously cultivated by the Western Union.

After all... To pass the blockade of the Black Demon Sect, it is impossible to imagine without certain strength.

"There is no need to mention these, how can my Li family be preserved?" Aaron asked.

"There is no other way but to follow the Qingdingmen closely... My nephew is ashamed." A look of shame appeared on Li Linghai's face.

This is the world where mighty power belongs to the individual, despite his resourcefulness, he still has to be caught blind in front of a Nascent Soul!

But Li Linghai devoted all his energy to his family, but he couldn't get around the mountain of Qingdingmen.

If you dare to make the choice of rebellion, being exterminated is the only end!

"If the Qingdan Patriarch made the wrong choice, Lin Guo will be doomed, and the Li family will most likely be doomed together..."

"In the eyes of outsiders, I, the elder of the Li family, must be reluctant to part with my family and spiritual veins..."

'But I don't know, if something really happened... I ran without the slightest hesitation. '

"After all, I'm not the mentally ill person like Li Ruyu, who has to devote all my attention to helping the family prosper..."

……

After dismissing Li Linghai and others, Aaron fell into deep thought.

The first thing he considered was naturally his own problems.

After practicing Ming Yu Jue to the twelfth level, he found himself stuck in a bottleneck again!

After all, the aptitude of the Three Spirit Roots is considered to be below average among the Foundation Establishment monks, and it is normal to encounter bottlenecks from time to time!

This is also the reason why he refined the 'Black Jade Seal' as soon as possible.

After all, cultivation base cannot be improved by an inch, and instead of wasting the vitality gained from daily cultivation, it is better to make offerings to this spiritual weapon.

"Actually... the way to break through the bottleneck, there are also fighting skills and swallowing elixirs... I don't want to use fighting skills, but what about elixirs?"

Aaron touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

The panacea that can help monks in the middle stage of foundation establishment to break through the later stage is very rare in Lin Guodu.

However, after all, it still belongs to the category of foundation-building second-order pills.

I know one, called 'Ziqing Breaking Barrier Pill', as long as the materials are ready, it can be refined.

However, the main material it needs is a 400-year-old spiritual grass called 'Ziqing Ganoderma lucidum'. Even though the Li family searched for it, they couldn't find it.

This made Aaron have to sigh.

'Even if there are recipes and craftsmanship...but without raw materials, everything is useless! '

This is also one of the reasons why the later stage of his second-level alchemy, the slower his promotion.

"But it doesn't matter if you can't find the elixir, the big deal is that it's not a big deal to rely on time to wear it slowly..."

"Also, after the Qingding Sect became dominant, the expansion became more and more terrifying, and the oppression of the Foundation Establishment family under its command became more and more severe."

"This Lin country, I'm afraid there is also a dark tide, and chaos is not far away..."

Aaron counted Qingdan's age, and the other party's ability to form alchemy may be due to the aptitude of the heavenly spirit root. When he was chasing the Red Blood Carp King, he was just a Qi Refining monk, and he might not even be 20 years old!

In other words, it was about the same age as Fang Yu!

At this time, Aaron was already four hundred years old.

"That is to say...Qingdan still has 100 years to live? And I'm only in the middle stage of foundation establishment..."
