longevity road trip

Zhang Shiping took it, pulled out the cork, poured out the elixir, and swallowed it after a few glances.

"Aren't you afraid that this is poison too?" Seeing this, the spirit corpse let out a little surprise, then stroked its beard and smiled.

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but I believe that the senior can't break Qin Feng's restriction, and can't do this. And if the senior breaks Qin Feng's restriction, it's only a matter of turning the hand to kill the junior, and naturally there is no need Waste this pill." Zhang Shiping said softly.

"It's a bit more decisive than before. Renew your vigor. Even in the face of the sky-filled thunder calamity, don't have the slightest retreat. Otherwise, you won't be able to break through the pill and become a baby. But I shouldn't say this Said, those Taoist friends of Xuanyuanzong naturally understand this, and they will naturally tell you when the time comes. We still go on the road to find the source of bone grass, this bone ridge is not too small, enough for you to find." Spirit corpse I mentioned Zhang Shiping.

Chapter 609 Contingency Variables

"Actually, this white bone life source grass is just a pretext. If I can find a few plants, I hope Qin Feng can keep his promise and let those juniors live. After all, the blood flowing in each other's bodies is the same. As for me , I am afraid that after this, no matter whether we can find the bone-growing grass or not, we will have to fend for ourselves." Zhang Shiping said calmly.

"That's true. It seems that this epiphany has made you think about a lot of things. The reason why Qin Feng stared at the Zhang family is actually because of you. Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators have descendants like you, and it's too late to be happy, but Qin Feng is different, ever since he killed Qin Xiangshan, in this person's eyes, the relationship between family and friendship or the relationship between master and apprentice is no longer important, otherwise you will have his help, and the road of cultivation will be a little easier." The spirit corpse nodded and sighed.

"Qin Feng gave up his heart and soul, fell into the devil and killed himself, and devoted himself to seeking the Tao. Naturally, he no longer harbors any emotions or desires. But I don't need his help. It's only because of him that I have figured out a lot. How can things happen in the world? Things go well, so we monks do not seek to be free from difficulties in life, do not seek to be free from obstacles in our hearts, and do not seek to be free from demons." When Zhang Shiping said this, his tone paused, and he laughed a few times.

Nervously, Zhang Shiping continued: "However, the words came out of the mouth of the senior, which made the junior feel a little strange. Since the senior didn't stick to Qin Xiangshan's old body at all, he must have really lived a new life. Dare I ask the senior what he is famous for now? "

"Don't think there is anything strange. Qin Xiangshan is Qin Xiangshan, Qin Feng is Qin Feng, and I am me. The old man uses this human body and Qin Feng's spiritual power to give birth to a new spiritual consciousness just by chance. But now the old man's soul is still there. There are defects, but if you can get rid of Qin Feng's control in the future, and then practice the method of changing the soul and changing the soul you gave, then you can truly say that you are a new student. So it doesn't matter what I want to call it, you can call it whatever you want Daoist friends are fine, and seniors are fine too. Foreign things such as sexuality and naming are just insignificant things." The spirit corpse stroked his beard with his hands. He seemed to have gained something, so he didn't look at Zhang Shiping simply with the condescending gaze between Yuanying and Jindan.

"Junior Zhang Shiping has met senior." Zhang Shiping looked serious, bowed his hands to him, and said in a solemn tone.

"In the next month or so, the old man will try his best to help you find the bone-born grass. But don't worry, even if you can't find the bone-born grass during this trip, Qin Feng will not be able to find it for nearly a hundred years. Don't dare to be too messy." said the spirit corpse.

"Is it because of Venerable Hongyue?" Zhang Shiping asked with a hint of doubt.

There is no one else in the world who can make a lunatic in the late Yuanying period act more restrained, except for those few Huashen venerables.However, Venerable Hongyue no longer took charge of the Red Moon Building decades ago, and now he is even missing, and the Venerable Xiao who had a relationship with him once, is not the kind of temperament that is jealous and enmity. In his opinion, life and death are just a very normal thing, as for the means used, it doesn't matter!

Of course, Qin Feng would no longer be so arrogant that he would offend a Huashen venerable under unsure circumstances, and bring himself to perish.

"Previously, it was because Venerable Hongyue was true, and Venerable didn't like clan monks the most, and Qin Feng had ambiguous ties with the clan. He acted insanely, but in fact, he returned to Nanzhou from Cangguyang. There is no transgression. As for your apprentice, she is only a foundation-building monk, and her life and death are only your master's concern. As long as Qin Feng is not sure whether the Red Moon Venerable is dead, he will not dare to take the risk. It is dangerous, but it is a pity that the Venerable has lived for too long, and there is not much life left, which should be between these two 300 years. And at this moment, the Venerable Hongyue may be in the inner hall." The spirit corpse opened his mouth and responded.Although he didn't know the Venerable's whereabouts, even the Venerable would not let go of such a once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity.Besides, if there is no venerable among the monks of the human race, how dare the monks of Nascent Soul go forward.

The golden core is eight hundred, the nascent soul is more than two thousand, and the full calculation of Huashen is only about 5000 years old.

Venerable Hongyue is different from other deities. He has been in the world for too long. In the eyes of interested people, the longevity of this Venerable is not a secret.

Hearing the matter of his apprentice brought up again by the spirit corpse, Zhang Shiping was not as excited as he was at the beginning, he nodded and asked without changing his expression: "I really don't know what kind of land the clan ruled over half of Nanzhou in the past. situation?"

"This old man is not clear, but in this world, there are always high and low, there are ups and downs, strong and weak, high and low, this is something that can never be changed." The spirit corpse said indifferently.

Suddenly, the spirit corpse's face was flushed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Zhang Shiping's face changed, and he became vigilant, paying attention to his surroundings.

The spirit corpse's face was as pale as gold paper, his long beard was stained with blood, and his aura was even more unstable, but he suddenly laughed wildly, "Hahaha!"

"Senior, who is this?" Zhang Shiping asked in a deep voice.

"The gloom around the old man is the manifestation of the method of Huangquan's secluded replacement. This deity must have encountered a lot of trouble in the inner hall, otherwise he would not have used this life-saving method to share the injury. ...I'm afraid it's because of the old fire crow you met before you came here. It once had a grudge with Qin Feng. It was getting old before, and it was only a short breath away from Zuohua, but it has been decades I don't know what kind of opportunity I got, the vitality is like a dead tree in spring, and it looks like a rejuvenation, I must be looking for my own bad luck at this moment." The spirit corpse laughed miserably, and he flipped his hands and took out the three ghost pills he had hunted before.

After swallowing these three ghost pills, a ghostly aura glowed around the corpse, and its aura also stabilized in an instant.

"Using the pure ghost energy contained in the ghost pill as a guide, the old man temporarily cut off the method of replacing the underworld for a while, so that the deity can no longer pass on the injury to me. Let's see what he will do?" There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said kindly with some anxiety.

"Go, let's move faster at this time." After finishing speaking, the spirit corpse turned into a faint light and fell into the sapphire cloud pattern ring in Zhang Shiping's hand.

"There is a refined soul tree in Skeletal Ridge, and the bone-growing grass you need grows under the shade of the tree. But this soul tree has already become a fine tree, and this kind of grass and trees are born with earth escape skills. Whenever there is a turmoil, You will hide in the earth and rocks, and you will not show up easily in a short time. Do you remember the direction of the highest peak here? Go there, and the soul-hunting ebony may appear there. I hope this trip You and I can really find the location of the soul-cultivating wood, and then all the bone-growing grass will be yours, but the old man wants the soul-cultivating wood." The spirit stone in the ring said through voice transmission.

The spirit corpses do this because they need some spirits to help them practice the method of exchanging yuan and turning their souls, and the soul-cultivating wood, which can nourish the soul, is the best.

Zhang Shiping recalled the terrain he saw before, looked left and right, and quickly determined where he was, and then rushed to the left without hesitation, and soon he disappeared into the mist.

……

……

Chapter 610 Soul Raising Wood

In the mountains here, Zhang Shiping walked through the mist, always alert to the wind and grass around him, so as not to be careless for a moment, and the boat capsized in the gutter.

After a stick of incense.

"Senior." Zhang Shiping called softly, but the spirit corpse did not respond.

Zhang Shiping frowned slightly, thinking to himself, could it be that something really happened to Qin Feng?

After thinking about it like this, Zhang Shiping restrained himself and continued on his way.

This place doesn't look big from the outside, but once he can't fly in the air, coupled with the continuous ups and downs of the mountains and valleys, he jumped for nearly an hour, but he still couldn't see the towering peak from before. , but Zhang Shiping still couldn't see the slightest worry on his face.

"Ahem, that foot peak is hidden in the gray mist, and you can't see it with the naked eye. Although you have practiced the magic eye of breaking evil, you haven't fully refined it, and your spiritual consciousness is not refined enough, so naturally you can't break it. There are many foggy obstacles here. Don't worry, you are going in the right direction, Juzu Peak is not far away." The spirit corpse suddenly coughed a few times.

Zhang Shiping stopped again, looked around, and responded at the same time: "The map in the hands of the younger generation is quite detailed. This place is only about a hundred miles away from Juzu Peak. If we were not worried about those monsters and monsters here, we would have arrived long ago. It's just how the senior Knowing that this junior is cultivating the evil eye, although I have secretly used it a few times, it should not be so obvious, right?"

The Nanfa Hall has been in existence for tens of thousands of years, and it is opened about once every two Jiazi. The Huashen and Yuanying monks before Xuanyuanzong have explored as many as [-] to [-] places in the Skeleton Ridge, and they have already touched this place to a great extent. Eight.Even though Zhang Shiping is not a Jindan cultivator directly descended from Xuanyuanzong, but as a late Jindan cultivator, he is still qualified to know the news.

When Zhang Shiping first entered the Xuanyuan Sect, there were not many classics that he could consult, and naturally they did not include the detailed records of Nanfa Palace and other secret places.But now, this situation has gradually changed.

After all, the world must use strength to speak.

"Whether the spiritual eye method you practice is the evil eye or not, the old man is just guessing casually. In the past, the Wanjian Gate was shattered, and the seven inherited swords in the sect were scattered outside, but in fact, the only one who benefited was Baimang Mountain. There are only six factions, and other Nascent Soul cultivators will naturally not let go of this great opportunity. These old guys have all kinds of dealings openly and secretly. They already know part of the inheritance methods of Wanjianmen, and I know some of them. It's not surprising! It's just a pity that in fact, most of the subtle parts of the Wanjianmen are in the sword of inheritance in Yu Xing's hand." The corpse said with some regret.

Then he asked again, "This method comes from the spirit world, but it is somewhat different from the general spiritual eye method. Only after reaching the third level can one practice several powerful secret techniques that match it."

"Isn't there only three layers to this evil-breaking method?" Zhang Shiping asked with a frown.

"Breaking Evil Dharma Eyes" When the practice reaches the third level, monks will have an extra vertical eye between their eyebrows, which can see through most of the illusion.He always thought that this technique had only three levels.

"No, you misunderstood. This evil-slaying method really only has three levels. But after the eyes are opened, there are several other secret methods that match it. After the monks have completed their cultivation, they have mastered various magical powers. It is reasonable to use your soul to condense The level should be about the same as opening your eyes and starting to practice the third level of 'opening your eyes', but why does the old man have no inspiration when he looks at your brows? If you don't know how to open your eyes, how many methods can the old man teach you?" Just after the spirit corpse finished speaking, one piece Qingyu was floating in front of Zhang Shiping.

"Senior, you're being polite, is your injury okay?" Zhang Shiping took the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and put it in the white jade belt.

He immediately ran towards the foot peak again.

"Don't worry, fortunately, the old man has already left behind and cut off the deity's replacement method in time. Now the injury is a bit serious, but fortunately, he will not lose his life for him. But I don't know what Qin Feng is. Didn’t it really get mixed up with that old fire crow, how could it be so seriously injured? My friend, this is the time when the old man is weakest, if you want to, you must seize such a good opportunity.” The spirit corpse said in a tone Said flatly.

Hearing what the other party said, Zhang Shiping said rather helplessly: "Senior is really joking. There may be one or two Jindan cultivators who can reverse the Nascent Soul in Nanzhou, but this person will never be me. For Jindan who just entered the later stage, their cultivation bases have at least achieved that perfection. Besides, no matter how badly injured the senior is, with the methods of the junior, can they pass two moves or three moves in the hands of the senior?"

"Haha, in my current situation, if you don't have any other means to suppress the bottom of the box, then at most two tricks can kill you, so you must not lose your head and have delusions that you shouldn't have. Of course, because of this deity The restriction planted, the old man cannot automatically hurt you." The spirit corpse laughed.

"Senior, I don't need to say more about these words. I just don't know if there are other ways for senior to find the location of the soul-cultivating wood besides the spirit bones prepared by this junior!" Zhang Shiping said flatly.Naturally, he wouldn't make a fool of himself and attack a Nascent Soul True Monarch with unknown injuries.

"The three bottles in the hands of the old man are specially intercepted and refined by the thunder spirit liquid, and combined with the spirit bones you prepared, you can draw the old tree with four or five points. There are countless spirit bone essences in it, and ghosts as food, and only now have some spiritual wisdom. However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and Nanfa Temple is somewhat different from the outside world. It is also unable to completely transform into a Nascent Soul and give birth to a complete mind. Therefore, the three bottles of Lei Ling Huasheng Liquid are very attractive to it. Of course, if it still can't be attracted, then the old man advises you to prepare early and timely Get out and keep yourself." The spirit corpse said.

"Tianlei is the most masculine, but the soul-cultivating wood is feminine. The two are incompatible. Qin Feng found a unique way to get along with this method. I really don't know how he came up with it, and I don't know if it is useful?" sighed.

"You still hope that other fellow daoists didn't think of this method before, otherwise the soul-cultivating wood will not be hooked if it is prepared." The spirit corpse said calmly.

Zhang Shiping chuckled when he heard the words: "I hope so."

……

……

After another two cups of tea, Zhang Shiping finally arrived at the foot of Juzu Peak.

The reason why he could recognize it at a glance, apart from the surrounding terrain, was that the mountain was completely black and exuded an extremely pure and cold aura, which was no worse than those fourth-order blessed lands outside. It is also an important reason why the spirit corpse speculates that the soul-cultivating wood will be here.

Chapter 611 Blackwood Forest

Zhang Shiping just sighed a little bit about the pure evil aura contained in Juzu Peak, and then plunged into the mountain, following the place where the inspiration gathered most.

It's just that this mountain has many stones and few trees, and is withered and lonely.In the final analysis, Yin Sha is also the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so Juzu Peak is naturally a blessed land of spiritual mountains, and it is reasonable that it should not be so desolate.This sudden feeling made Zhang Shiping feel a little strange.

However, since he stepped into the Skeleton Ridge, the scenery he has seen along the way is actually not much better than here.

He thought of the world of gray clouds and black sea in the Nine Birds Secret Realm. The chains were like pillars of heaven, piercing through the Kunpeng, which seemed to be a real spirit. It was more desolate and dead than here.

It's just that from the phantom imprinted on the sky and the earth when he first saw the Skeleton Ridge, the green lion was killed by the chain just like the Kunpeng, but there was still a gap between the two.After all, there is still Kunpeng's body left in the world, and this blue lion has gone now.Of course, maybe the previous monks took away his body, or maybe he didn't actually die and saved his life.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhang Shiping's mind, leaving a trace of doubt.

But Zhang Shiping didn't bother with these things, because not to mention the Kunpeng whose body was still alive after his death for countless tens of thousands of years, or the mighty green lion who once occupied this place, maybe they just need One look and one breath can wipe out a Golden Core cultivator like him.

After all, curiosity is only curiosity after all.

Even though these things might have something to do with the decline of this world, Zhang Shiping didn't want to do things that were beyond his power and could not explore the truth of the results.

Besides, he is not the only one who knows about the Nine Birds Secret Realm and Nanfa Palace, but there is no monk in the world of cultivating immortals who would tirelessly explore these ancient secrets.

Living in the moment is the most important thing.

……

……

Half an hour later, Zhang Shiping circled the peak and came to the halfway up the mountain. When he passed a black wood forest, the spirit corpse enshrined in the sapphire cloud pattern ring suddenly said: "Wait a minute, see There are no more than a dozen black trees on your left, so we set up bait there."

Zhang Shiping immediately turned his head to look, and saw that the place was sparse, the black trees growing there were thick and short, and the sinister aura was normal.

"Senior, this dark wood forest is very clever, and it's not even as good as the places we passed by on the way up. What's the reason for choosing this place?" He couldn't help showing a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Actually, there are so many mysteries in this world. The reason is very simple. It's just that the old man discovered that there is a low-grade soul-cultivating tree in the black wood forest. It should be left by the old tree demon." Said unhurriedly.

Zhang Shiping swept lightly with his spiritual sense, but he didn't immediately find any trace of the low-level soul-cultivating wood, and then he urged to investigate more intently.

After a few breaths, he found a black tree with a slightly strange smell.

In the heart of this thick and thin black tree, there is a faint vitality of new life, and in Zhang Shiping's mind, a green seedling no more than two fingers thick is living in it.

"See, this old tree demon has not yet fully transformed, and his intelligence is still in a twilight state. His nature is timid and alert, otherwise he would not cultivate his younger generations like this. Its cultivation base is only between that of Jindan Yuan Between infants, it is even worse than the realm of fake infants. You are a golden core monk, so it will not be afraid. But if this old tree demon feels the breath of the old man, it will most likely not show up , so I will leave it to you to lay out the bait later." The spirit corpse instructed.

Then with a thought, three vials about four inches long suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Shiping. Layers of cloud patterns were engraved on the body of the bottles, and the purple and white spiritual light flowed along the lines above, exuding a faint brilliance.

"Is this the Thunder Spirit Transformation Liquid that can only be refined by monks at the Nascent Soul Stage? Tianlei is indeed extremely masculine and powerful, but I don't know how to create vitality?" Zhang Shiping wiped the white jade belt around his waist and took it out. He took out a storage bag, then reached out to the bottle and put it in it.

"Like him, you are really cautious. In fact, besides those monster spirit bones, there is another thing on your body, that is, the locust that feeds on the spirit bones. As long as you are willing to part with it, it will lead to the old The tree demon is a little more sure." The spirit corpse laughed, but he did not answer Zhang Shiping's questions about the nature of life, such questions are too mysterious, like heaven and earth, the universe is prehistoric, and it is difficult for the Nascent Soul cultivator to answer. Come up with a real answer.

"This thunder liquid is so dangerous, and there is no magic pattern on it to block it. My white jade belt has no effect on suppressing the block. If something happens accidentally, it explodes suddenly and hurts you and me, that's not good. Yes. As for the locust mentioned by the senior, let's take a look later. If it doesn't work then, the junior will naturally be willing to be a mere spirit insect." Zhang Shiping said flatly.

"That's good. But don't worry, although something like Thunder Liquid is not stable, it's not to that extent. And don't worry, Qin Feng's refining method of Thunder Spirit Transformation Liquid What Xiang Yuji has learned should not be a problem. Although he has been trapped in the middle stage of Yuanying for a long time, his attainments in refining thunder are not low." said the spirit corpse.

"Yuji, Qin Feng and this person used to know each other. It seems that the younger generation has fallen into Qin Feng's eyes a long time ago! But it is also normal that there are more or less connections between Nascent Soul cultivators in the vast overseas. Senior , please restrain your breath first, this junior is going to set up these four broken gold formations. After luring out the old tree demon, senior will take down this beast." Zhang Shiping replied.

Then he wiped the jade storage belt around his waist, and four small gold-patterned flags came out in his hands. His figure moved tens of feet away, and he appeared at the edge of the black wood forest the next moment.

Then Zhang Shiping raised his hand casually, and with a sound of 'swish', a small flag came out of his hand and was planted firmly on the ground.

Immediately, he shifted around the blackwood forest, and placed formation flags in the other three places, enclosing them in a square shape.Immediately afterwards, he pinched his hands again, but instead of activating the formation, he just said "hidden" softly in his mouth, making the four formation flags disappear into the ground and disappear.

Zhang Shiping walked into the black wood forest, took out a storage bag, white light flashed, and the skeletons of monster beasts spread all over the ground, and released the phantom locust, which was perfected at the second level, and let it eat those spirits at will. bone.

Then he leaned on the black wood that was parasitized by the seedlings of the soul-nourishing wood, sat down cross-legged, held a high-grade spirit stone in each hand, closed his eyes and meditated, and waited quietly.

Chapter 612

After a while, Zhang Shiping, who pretended to have no mana in his body, absorbed a small half of the spiritual power from the two high-grade spirit stones in his hand, and his face gradually glowed.

Then he reached out to wipe the storage bag at his waist, holding a small bottle of purple and white aura in the palm of his hand, and then he lifted it lightly, and sent it out.

The small bottle containing the lightning liquid leisurely rose to a height of Zhang Xulai, and slowly floated to the sky above the Phantom Locust.

Zhang Shiping looked at the vial solemnly, put two fingers together and pointed forward, a little spiritual light floated out and sank into the bottle.

All of a sudden, there were noisy noises all around, and there was a silver-purple thunder flashing at the mouth of the bottle, and Lace danced like a spirit snake.

Seeing this, Zhang Shiping's ten fingers pinched the knuckle quickly again, circulated mana to match it, and shot out several auras one after another, which stabilized the thunder liquid a little, and drew a hair-thin thunder light towards the Wrapped away by the Phantom Locust.Although he has seen some lightning methods, but he does not have Lei Linggen, so the method of controlling lightning can only be said to be unsatisfactory, just passable.

So Zhang Shiping, who seemed not in a hurry, actually breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The thunder was violent, as soon as the thunder sounded, it attracted the attention of the phantom locust that was eating in the pile of spiritual bones, and saw a ray of lightning coiling towards it, this phantom locust suddenly seemed to be facing a big enemy, The two pairs of dark red wings on the front and back chest flapped frantically, humming, and instinctively wanted to avoid it.

Zhang Shiping felt the sense of fear from the worm, but with a movement of his mind, he stopped in place, and then controlled the slight thunder light, slowly blending into the worm's body, melting into it bit by bit.

The phantom locust in his hand is only one step away from the third level, let it be familiar with the sky thunder in advance, at least it can reduce its fear.

Besides, how intelligent the old tree demon is, and whether it is still in a hazy and chaotic state, is actually just speculation between him and the spirit corpse.If its wisdom is no worse than that of ordinary monks, wouldn't it be too abrupt if he took out the lightning liquid and put it dryly on the ground?

……

……

At this time, in a dark and deep underground cave, there were three people standing on the edge of a deep pool. An old man with silver hair and long beard was quietly looking at a man and a demon opposite him with his slender eyes.

Dark green bubbles were bubbling from the pool, and there were several flesh and blood corpses lying on the side. The dark green pool water and bruises dripped all over the ground.

The bubbles in the pool burst and made a slight sound.

But in this way, the place seemed even more unusually quiet.

After a while, there were more and more bubbles in the pool, and then a string of bubbles floated out from the depths of the pool.
