longevity road trip

Chapter 430

Waking up the next morning, Zhang Shiping's Green Bamboo Valley unexpectedly ushered in an acquaintance. It was the real Huo Ming who was in the Mysterious Tong Xuan Realm last time. He should have carefully taken care of his appearance today, and he was not that greasy. Feeling sloppy, with a helpless look on his face.

As soon as he saw Zhang Shiping, he cupped his hands and said repeatedly: "Brother Zhang, you have hurt me, brother, this time you have to help brother no matter what you say."

After Zhang Shiping made a slight conquest, he understood somewhat in his heart, but he still had some doubts and said: "The one who was in charge of investigating the Chongling Mountain Range in the past was probably the senior brother."

Xuanyuan Sect's sect has a very wide territory, not to mention other places, just take Binhai City as an example, this city of cultivating immortals is several times larger than Zhengyang Sect.Although it is named after the city, it actually includes an unknown number of spiritual mountains and rivers.

The lifespan of Jindan monks is about 700 years, but monks are often over a hundred years old when they form alchemy, and they are not Nascent Souls. The remaining lifespan is only [-] years. There are also many monks who have fallen outside without a sound.

Therefore, these third-level Lingshanshuifu practice places will change owners in about four to five hundred years.However, it does not mean that as soon as a Golden Core cultivator leaves, another Golden Core cultivator will come in at the next step, and there will often be decades in between.

During this period of time, Xuanyuanzong sent several Jindan under the sect to investigate these Lingshanshui mansions, and then reported the situation to the ancestor Yuanying of the sect.

And the fourth-order soul-hunting ebony in the Chongling Mountains must be reported to the Yuanying Patriarch.Xuan Yuanzong didn't pay much attention to the third-order spiritual plants, and he could let the golden core monks handle them, but for the fourth-order spiritual things, that's another story.Naturally, this kind of treasure, Xuanyuanzong, would not be cheap for the Jindan cultivator.

These fourth-level spiritual plants are not so easy to transplant, so every once in a while, the sect will send people to check.There is no fourth-order spiritual bamboo in Zhang Shiping's Green Bamboo Valley, so he did not encounter such a thing.

It's just that I didn't expect that there would be a fourth-order Hunhunwu in a mere second-order spiritual mountain like the Chongling Mountain Range, which would also attract Yingjie.For Huo Ming and the others who were in charge of investigating the Chongling Mountain Range, this was definitely a breach of responsibility, no wonder he was full of helplessness.

"I don't think so, it's really bad luck." Master Huo Ming lamented, the missions of the sect are all recorded, let alone decades, even hundreds of years, if you want to check, that's the same Can find out who is responsible for the matter.The Jindan masters never imagined that there would be a fourth-order treasure tree like Hunhunwu in a mere second-order Chongling mountain range.

After this incident happened, they were reprimanded by Du Yu Zhenjun and fined two years' salary. Each of them lost 2000 yuan of spirit stones at once, but they felt so sorry for him.

But fortunately, before Zhenjun Du Yu was a baby, the two of them had a good relationship, so this matter came to an end, and the rest was just some finishing touches.

"It's my brother's fault, I've brought my brother into trouble." Zhang Shiping said politely while waving his hand to sacrifice the token of the silver magic circle, and at the same time leading Master Huo Ming into the valley.

Master Huo Ming quickly shook his hand, "What did the younger brother say? It is because the elder brother was too careless and almost caused a catastrophe. I hope the younger brother will not be blamed."

No matter whether it succeeds or not, it will be a natural disaster for the members of the Zhang family on the Chongling Mountains. It is no wonder that Huo Ming came to the door in person, with such a low profile.

"Brother, what did you say? I blame my brother for being too negligent. I didn't find out in time, and I hurt my brother." Zhang Shiping shook his head.It was his negligence to really care about this kind of thing, after all, the Chongling Mountain Range was his Zhang family's territory.

The two walked side by side, and Zhang Shiping led the real Huo Ming to the guest house in the Guzhong practice courtyard, and they started talking with each other.

He came here to apologize, and secondly, to ask about what happened that night.All these things Zhang Shiping could say, Zhang Shiping had already told True Monarch Du Yu, but Master Huo Ming couldn't ask this Yuan Ying Patriarch face to face, so he approached Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping naturally told Master Huo Ming what happened the night before according to what he said to Zhenjun Du Yu.The two of them said some more words, and then Master Huo Ming got up and left.

When he left, Huo Ming left behind a brand new storage bag, which contained the apologies of several of their Jindan masters.

Zhang Shiping watched Huo Ming fly away from outside the valley, and then returned to the Green Bamboo Valley.He picked up the storage bag on the table, swept away his divine sense, and took out some spirit stones from the storage bag without changing his expression. Hundreds of medium-grade spirit stones shone with various auras.

A mere hundred middle-grade spirit stones, Zhang Shiping has long since disregarded them.

In the days that followed, he was the same as usual. Apart from cultivating in the valley, he went to the nearby store in Wuyuefang City to buy some spiritual objects that were not practiced in the Zhangjiaku Mansion.Of course, every ten days and a half months, he would go to the Chongling Mountain Range to meet the real Huo Ming, and ask about it by the way. If he was indifferent to this matter, then there seemed to be something wrong.

……

About two months later, Green Bamboo Valley.

Zhang Shiping was frowning, looking at the half stone and half gold Nine Bird Token in his hand, a person covered in a black cloak came to Zhang Shiping silently, and offered a messenger jade slip with both hands.

This man in black is the foundation-building servant sent by Zhang Shiping to help Zhang Hengren.After he presented the jade slips, he stood numbly, only his chest rose and fell slightly.

Zhang Hengren, the head of the Zhang family, informed Zhang Shiping that the Jindan masters of the Xuanyuanzong had left the jade slip. After Zhang Shiping read it, he waved his hand to make the servants of Zhuji retreat and let them return to the Chongling Mountain Range.

He enslaved the three Wanjian Gate Foundation Establishment, because there were too few Foundation Establishment cultivators in the family, he sent two of them to Zhang Hengren to help, leaving only one to do work such as raising spirit insects in the valley.

……

In the past two months, many people in Binhai City have long forgotten about the sudden appearance of Jieyun. Ordinary people are still busy with their livelihoods, while immortal cultivators go out to make a living.

In the cave, Zhenjun Du Yu supported his head with one hand, and in the other hand held the jade slips just presented by Master Huo Ming. There was also a rectangular brocade box on the table, inside which was a two-inch-long black root. .

The news in the jade slips were all useless, Zhenjun Du Yu had already expected it, so he didn't blame Huo Ming and the others for their unfavorable work.

After a while, he stood up, put away the jade slips and the brocade box, turned around and walked towards the depths of the cave, passing behind two faint magic circle light curtains, and what came into view was a square about two square meters away. There are many runes engraved on Zhang Zhang's magic circle, which is [-]% or [-]% similar to the ancient teleportation circle that Zhang Shiping saw on the unnamed island.

As Zhenjun Du Yu waved his hands, five high-grade spirit stones shining with different colors of spiritual light floated down on the nodes of the magic circle, and he strode into the magic circle.

A white beam of light ten feet high appeared on the magic circle, and after a while, Zhenjun Du Yu disappeared.

……

……

Indigo sky, scattered white clouds.

Under the sky is a vast expanse of red wilderness, and the strong wind between the heaven and the earth is howling like ghosts.

Looking at the past, there are only eight or nine courtyards in this red field, each separated by hundreds of miles, scattered here and there, looking extremely desolate.

There is no flash of spiritual light in the courtyard, which is very normal, but no matter how the strong wind hits, the courtyard still stands still, as if it can last for thousands of years.

In one of the courtyards, a white light suddenly appeared on the magic circle inside, and a figure appeared, it was True Monarch Du Yu who had left from the cave earlier.

He immediately left the courtyard and flew towards the east.

This is the Xuanfeng sect's secret realm of Xuanyuanzong, and it is also the practice place of Duyu Zhenjun's master Jifeng.

Chapter 431 Good thing?

The random wind secret realm is very desolate, and the whole secret realm is so flat that it makes people feel strange. There is not even a larger rock here, let alone dangerous mountains.

There are countless fine sands mixed in the wind. The never-ending gust of wind seems to have weathered all the rocks in this secret place and turned them into reddish-brown sand, so this secret place is overlooked from a very high place in the sky. All eyes are red.

Under such extremely harsh conditions, shrubs and trees are difficult to survive, and there are only some lichen-like plants on the red plain, which are dotted around, very short and sparse.It stands to reason that in such an environment, spiritual energy should be very scarce, and the entire secret realm should also be slowly collapsing.

But the reality is just the opposite. The spiritual energy in this chaotic wind secret realm is extremely abundant, and the violent wind all over the sky was formed just because the spiritual energy in the sky was too turbulent, and the fine sand in the wind, if you feel it carefully, you can know it is Fine sand formed by aura.

The scorching sun swept across the sky, and a blue flying rainbow cast a small black spot on the ground. The speed was very fast, but in the time of a cup of tea, Du Yu had passed more than two hundred miles away.

But when Du Yu flew over somewhere, he suddenly slowed down, looked up at the sky, and enjoyed a rare sight from the outside world.

This secret realm seemed to be divided artificially. Behind Du Yu, the wind was fierce and the wind was churning, while in front of him, the wind was still bitter, but the clouds in the sky did not change in the wind.He stared at a white cloud in the shape of fish scales in the front left, which was a piece of white cloud that he paid special attention to after he became a Nascent Soul cultivator and just entered this secret realm.

There is a saying that the wind has no form and the cloud has no form, but more than a hundred years have passed, but it has not changed at all.

In the sky further ahead, those white clouds did not look like the outside world, as if an urchin picked up a ball of cotton and then sprinkled it freely, with strands everywhere.As far as he knew, when the sect obtained this secret realm from the Middle Ages, it was already like this.At that time, some people in the Zongmen guessed what the reason was, was it heaven and earth?Or manpower?

"It should be that a fairy was drunk and crushed the white cloud." Du Yu said with emotion, Feng Xu Yufeng, who had a face like a crown of jade, looked more like a fairy at this moment.

But this state didn't last long, and a very hoarse voice suddenly sounded beside his ear.He picked out his ears, blew a bit, and with a helpless look on his lazy face, he turned into a blue startled rainbow again, crossed the remaining hundred miles in one breath, and finally landed in front of a courtyard .

Although the courtyard door was half open, he didn't go in directly, but waved it, and a red light flew out from his sleeve, entered the magic circle outside the courtyard, and rippled.

His master attaches great importance to these rules.

Du Yu Zhenjun stood outside the courtyard and waited. After a short while, a door about Zhang long and wide suddenly appeared in the magic circle outside the courtyard, and there was a very hoarse voice from inside.

"come in."

True Monarch Du Yu didn't hesitate at all, he walked in immediately.

The half-closed courtyard door made a creaking sound when he pushed it open. After Du Yu entered the door, he walked around the screen wall, then walked along the bluestone road on the left for a while, and arrived at the courtyard. At that time, I saw two old people sitting on the chairs on the left and right in front of the hall.

On the left is an old man in a green shirt with a bun. He is full of energy and his eyes are very bright. He is leaning on the back of the chair comfortably, and a silver whisk is placed on the table. This person is the Qing He big monk.

On the right is an old man in gray clothes with thin eyes and a high nose. This man has a big frame, his back is straight, and he is a head taller than Qing He when he sits. There wasn't much meat, and the ten long fingers seemed to be covered only by a thin layer of skin, without any flesh.

The sides of this person's cheeks are a little concave, and his thin lips are a little dark in color due to lack of blood or slow movement. In addition, those sharp eyes give people a cold and stern feeling.

"Du Yu pays homage to the master, and has met the Great Elder." True Monarch Du Yu greeted the two of them successively.

"Get up, are you here for the Chongling Mountain Range?" the gray-clothed old man nodded and asked without changing his expression.

True Monarch Du Yu came here today not because of the Chongling Mountain Range.Now that Binhai City is under his rule, the matter of Chongling Mountain is nothing more than a trivial matter.As for why his master knew, he didn't want to know.

"Master, news came from the spies at Wanjian Gate that Yu Xing had already returned to the gate, but he didn't see anyone else." Zhenjun Du Yu frowned inadvertently when he said the latter.

If Yu Xing heard Du Yu's words, he would be furious.

Back when Zhang Shiping was in Zhengyang Sect, he became a foundation-building monk and was valued by Xu Youdan, but he didn't know the whereabouts of the Zongmen Wang Patriarch.The whereabouts of the Zongmen Yuanying Patriarch are generally only known to those Jindan Zhenren who are relatively close to him.

Although Wanjianmen integrated Baimang Mountain and included many Jindan real people, Yu Xing would not inform them of his whereabouts when he went out.Those golden elixirs who were qualified to know the news all followed him after Wanjianmen was destroyed, or they were monks who became golden elixirs at that time.

However, these monks have long been mixed with sand by Xuanyuanzong, but I don't know if there are people from Xuanming Palace and Shuiyueyuan among them?

"Understood, don't follow up on this matter for the time being, go down to practice first, and I will discuss it with the Great Elder." Ji Feng nodded.

Du Yu understood his master's temper, answered 'yes', and withdrew.It is more in his mind not to worry about this matter, he doesn't want to be busy with these things every day, he might as well practice or sleep if he has this time.

After Du Yu got out of the magic circle in the courtyard, Ji Feng said to Qinghe Zhenjun beside him, "Senior brother, how sensible do you think Xuan Mu is now?"

"Xuanmu's talent is mediocre, and his talent is far less than that of Venerable Wanjian. Now he has become the master of the demon body for almost a hundred years. If he thinks about it, his demon nature has penetrated into his soul, and it will come soon. Master Xuanshan and Venerable Xifeng are not here. This time We don't get involved in this matter, that old toad is the monster's pet, and its lifespan is approaching, so it's not worth making it crazy!" Qinghe mentioned Xuanmu, the former Yuanying monk of Wanjianmen and the current Muji Sanren When I was talking, I didn't take it to heart between words.From his point of view, Xuan Mu paid attention to the demon body because he was in a daze. It is really a dream to rely on the demon body to become the avatar venerable!

It is not a secret that the demon body is sealed in the Demon Valley of Baimang Mountain Town.Many Nascent Soul cultivators knew it, and Venerable Huashen naturally knew it too.However, since Venerable Wanjian sealed the demon body, for five or six thousand years, such a tyrannical demon body that has not been transformed for thousands of years has been there, and it is not seen that any Venerable Huashen took the initiative to refine it into A corpse, or refined into an incarnation outside the body.

If this is a good thing, how can Xuan Mu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, get his turn?

Chapter 432

"The two venerables have fulfilled their long-cherished wish, broke free from barriers, practiced for thousands of years, and only saw a glimmer of light. Longevity may be expected. Fortunately, congratulations! Otherwise, our monks will have no future and no hope for eternal life. Wouldn't it be sad! But now this Nan In the land of Zhouzhou, those seniors either went deep into the barbarian domain or searched for Canggu, but there is no news. I am afraid that Venerable Hongyue alone will be difficult to resist those few demon venerables." Zhenjun Jifeng showed envy in his eyes, and brought A little bit worried.

"Junior brother, relax, just look at this..." Qinghe Zhenjun raised his hand, and after a burst of blue light surged, a sapphire skeleton suddenly appeared.

There was a gray mist floating around this sapphire skeleton, as soon as Qinghe pointed out, a thick, lead-heavy black water sank into the brow of the skeleton.

In the next moment, the mist condensed into a pair of black armor in the blink of an eye, covering the sapphire skeleton from head to toe, and an extremely heavy breath emanated from the skeleton, faintly feeling like the waves were surging.

Under the dark visor, two black and red light spots suddenly appeared, dancing like flames.

Zhenjun Jifeng didn't pay much attention at first, and said with a teasing look in his eyes: "This hollow jade bone was stolen from that junior named Zhang by you, brother. It can really be pulled. Come down."

"Don't look at me like that, I don't know who you are? I can kill that kid, but if you did it, he would have already become the blood soul in your blood map." Qing He Zhenjun said without changing his expression, and at the same time softly said the word "go".

As soon as the words fell, the black armor skeleton suddenly disappeared under Ji Feng's nose.

Then a ghost claw sprang out without any warning, and pierced Jifeng's back.

The five fingertips of this claw are pointed, and the bones are green. As soon as this ghost claw appeared, Ji Feng felt as if he was trapped in a swamp that he couldn't break free from, and the square space suddenly squeezed towards him.

A frightening aura burst out from Jifeng's body with traces of blood in it.

But the ghost claw didn't really stab, but just clicked, and it reappeared beside Qing He.

Qinghe Zhenjun stroked his long beard, squinted at Jifeng with a rather contented expression.

"With this sapphire bone, and you and I holding the Bright Jade Yuan Light Realm, we can retreat completely from any of those monster masters. Besides, isn't there Shui Yueyuan?" , Xuanming Palace and their four factions, there will not be any twists and turns in the secret realm of Bilang Island." Qinghe said indifferently.

"One hundred high-grade spirit stones, bring them here." Ji Feng touched his chest, and at some point, a small spot was torn on the precious clothes.He pointed to the small hole on the top, stretched out his hand, and weighed it in front of Qing He.

"Some people opened their mouths loudly. It seems that I, brother, want to clean up the house, so as to prevent someone from becoming a God of Transformation, which would cause great harm at that time." Zhenjun Qinghe stared at Jifeng with a faint tone.

Ji Feng held up the teacup, brewed it lightly, lowered his head and took a sip, as if he didn't hear it, and then discussed with Qing He about the matter behind Bilang Island.

The collapse of the secret realm of Bilang Island was jointly promoted by various forces including the Nanzhou Human Race, Sea Race, and Monster Race.

After the great destruction, there will be a great rebirth. When the small secret realm of Bilang Island merges into the small world, many rare and rare spiritual creatures will be born.

However, in addition to these spiritual objects, those venerables in the transformation stage and great monks in the Nascent Soul stage pay more attention to the process. When the secret realm blends with the small world, it is the manifestation of space. It can bring them a different understanding.

Learn from heaven and earth, Taoism follows nature.

As for Jifeng and Qinghe calling Venerable Xuanshan their ancestors, it was because their master had been taught by Xuanshan for a period of time, and they had some kind of respect for each other.

But in the heart of Xuan Shan, a venerable who is dedicated to pursuing longevity, these things are no longer important, just like Zhengyang Zhenjun, the founder of the Zhengyang sect, was also Xuanshan's registered disciple.In this way, Zhenjun Changshen is also Xuanshan's disciple, but even if Zhengyang Sect is destroyed, Xuanshan will not come forward.

While the two were discussing things, Du Yu had already returned to the city through the teleportation circle.Now that the two great monks of Zongmen have spoken, Du Yu is also happy to let go of Wanjianmen's affairs.

……

……

As for Zhang Shiping after what happened in Chongling Mountain, he still practiced in the Green Bamboo Valley day after day.

In the days that followed, he sometimes spared some time to delve into the refining magic circle and talismans, and sometimes he practiced various methods.

Of course, he would sometimes visit the Jindan Taoist friends in the lower city, sit and discuss the Tao, and talk to each other about his own practice experience.

As for after nightfall, he would meditate beside the bronze lamp and practice. While consolidating his mana, he used the pill fire to slowly polish the one tower and four swords.

Over the past twenty years, the Zhang family's business has also been on the right track, and the spiritual objects and spiritual stones they earned can finally supply the daily practice of Zhang Shiping, a Jindan monk.Therefore, in these years, Zhang Shiping rarely left Binhai City.

One of them was because after the Nine Bird Order was restored to its original state, he went to the Nine Bird Secret Realm in the Black Sea of ​​Canggu Ocean, and took the opportunity to look at Kunpeng's corpse from afar again, and further perfected the "Kunpeng Feather" method.

However, Kunpeng's body was still full of lifelessness. Although Zhang Shiping's magic power had improved, it was almost nonexistent in front of this ancient true spirit. Compared with the first time, he had walked half a step longer.

But just at that mere half-step, bursts of panic surged from the bottom of his heart like a sea tide, and Zhang Shiping didn't dare to move any further.
