Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

“Ning…Ning Dan?!”

A series of exclamations rang out almost simultaneously.

Except Hua Ling and the old foreigner.

There are also Yuan Hong and Hong Girl who woke up from their meditation at some point in time.

The five of them were all practicing the Xuan Dao's Qi-Fuding Foundation Building Technique.

They are from the same school.

but.

The foundation-building skills hidden in the remains of Taoist Qingchi were only a fragment.

After building the foundation.

The inheritance was broken.

Although he said that he didn't care, the fragments were still fragments after all. If he couldn't complete it, it would be like a dead end.

and.

It’s different in the past.

When they were in Pingshan, apart from Chen Yulou who came here to practice Taoism, the rest of the people, including the three brothers and sisters from the Banshan lineage, could only be considered martial artists.

As for the secret techniques passed down by the mountain-moving school.

Everything related to Taoist practice, without exception, is missing.

Therefore, being able to obtain a copy of the Taoist method is already a gift from God to them, so there is no reason for them to be picky.

But today is different.

As you gradually enter the room and cross the dragon gate.

It seems that a breakthrough in Qi training is imminent.

Doesn't that mean there is no hope of building a foundation for life?

How can I not feel lost and worried?

They even thought privately that if they had time, they would go to the martial arts world to inquire about the whereabouts of the Hidden Immortal Sect.

If only we could find the true successor of that school.

This means that you will have the opportunity to obtain the entire Xuan Dao Qigong foundation-building technique.

It’s a pity that in the past six months.

They are either on the road or on the go.

From south to north, traveling east and west.

There was almost no pause.

Where would we find the time to look for the descendants of the legendary Hidden Immortal Sect?

But no one expected it.

Now, with the opportunity at Zulong Peak, Partridge Whistle has successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Realm for the first time, and he has actually realized the future realm on his own.

Who can resist such temptation?

"This... Senior Brother, what happens after the pill is condensed?"

The old foreigner swallowed hard, staring at the Partridge Whistle in front of him, with a look of anxiety and inexplicable expectation on his face.

"Refine the spiritual energy and condense it into a pill."

"The elixir is completed, and a spirit baby is born."

Partridge Whistle explained softly, word by word.

Not loud.

But to the four old foreigners, it was no less than thunder.

"Ningdan, Lingying?!"

So the realm of cultivation starts from crossing the Dragon Gate and entering the Qi Training Pass, followed by the three realms of Foundation Establishment, Pill Condensation and Spirit Infant?

just.

The foundation building and pill forming are easy to understand.

The spiritual infant of the fourth realm.

Why does it sound so strange?

Especially the old foreigner and Yuan Hong, they looked weird.

"Then, Senior Brother, besides the subsequent realms, are there any Taoist methods?"

at last.

It was Hua Ling who asked the key question.

Hearing this, Yuan Hong and the old foreigner were shocked and dared not think about it anymore. Their eyes all fell on Partridge Whistle.

Although it is the Dharma-Ending Age now.

However, the number of people practicing cultivation has never ceased. Throughout history, countless people have avoided the world and lived in seclusion, just to seek the true path one day.

Especially those ancient Taoist sects that have been passed down for thousands of years.

As long as you are willing to ask.

There will be a time when you will know the subsequent realm.

But completing the foundation-building exercise is a matter of life and death. Only when it is truly completed will their future path of cultivation not be a dead end.

"I have a vague understanding of this."

Facing the uneasy looks of several people, Partridge Whistle hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief.

He changed the subject again.

"but……"

"But what? Brother, don't keep us in suspense at this time."

The old foreigner's heartstrings had just relaxed a little, but he felt his whole body tense up again. At this moment, he could not care about anything else and said with a frown.

"That's right, brother, what's going on?"

Hua Ling also echoed.

"I only heard some vague words, like a dream. I have to try it before I can verify whether it is the follow-up method of foundation building."

Partridge Whistle shook his head.

Isn't he the same?

The moment he broke through the bottleneck and stepped into the stage of foundation building, he felt a faint sound in his mind, as if something was broken, and then... between the heaven and earth outside his body, a series of barely audible voices began to chant.

Just like that day at Pingshan Danjing, outside the ancient lacquer coffin.

The scene when the mind is pulled into an illusion.

True and false, real and unreal, it's like a dream, and it's completely impossible to distinguish.

Now in the group.

He has gone the furthest on this path.

Just like a lamp in the vast night.

Partridge Whistle is fully aware of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

If I am confused, how can I lead Hua Ling, Hong Girl and others?

"Ah this..."

I heard his explanation.

The group of people looked at each other in surprise.

"After this trip, I still have to go look for Qingchi Mountain. Maybe I can find some clues there. Otherwise, if I can't complete the foundation-building work in one day, I will be in the dark in the end."

"it is good."

The old foreigner nodded.

Since the colorful painting on the coffin wall shows Taoist Qingchi breaking through the void and ascending to heaven, it means that the foundation-building skills of the Xuan Dao will never stop at the foundation-building, condensing the elixir or even the spiritual infant.

"However, there is no need to be too anxious. I can vaguely sense that those words should be the sequel."

It seemed as if he was worried that the pressure on several people was too great.

Instead, it causes spiritual practice to stagnate.

Even turned into a demon in the heart.

Partridge Whistle added another sentence.

really.

Upon hearing this, the originally extremely solemn atmosphere suddenly became a lot more relaxed.

Didn't dwell on this for too long.

Partridge Whistle let out a breath and glanced at the group of people in front of him.

After building the foundation, he could clearly feel that there seemed to be an extra ray of divine consciousness in the Niwan Palace, covering his eyes, and he could clearly sense the depth of the aura and the flow of spiritual energy of several people.

Judging from the changes in the flower spirit's aura.

It is clear that he has reached the great perfection of Qi training.

There is only a fine line between this and foundation building.

It happened much faster than he imagined.

As for the old foreigners.

"Qi Refining Realm... is not bad either."

Partridge Whistle nodded secretly.

Among a group of people.

The old foreigner arrived the latest, and his physique and talent were not particularly outstanding, so it was unexpected that he could get to this point.

"Ms. Hong is only one step away from perfecting her Qi training."

His eyes continued to scan.

Among the group, because of the difference in gender, he knew Red Girl the least, and they were just nodding acquaintances on weekdays.

In addition, he had not yet cultivated his spiritual consciousness.

Red Girl rarely takes action.

It's really unclear how far she has come?

Now I finally see through it.

Half a step to the peak of Qi Refining.

It's not much different from what I guessed.

After all, Chen Yulou had praised her talent for cultivation that day in Chenjiazhuang, saying that it was not inferior to Hua Ling. Looking back now, it must be said that Chen Yulou had a keen eye.

"Oh, and Yuan Hong... huh?"

His eyes swept across the red girl and then fell on the last figure.

Calculated by age.

Among the group, Yuan Hong is undoubtedly their senior.

It has lived in Pingshan alone for more than decades.

It's just that after it came down from the mountain, it never considered itself a senior.

At this moment, his eyes fell.

Partridge Whistle's pupils shrank slightly without making a sound.

There were more than thirty black golden rays of light all over Yuan Hongzhou's body. Looking closely, those black golden rays of light perfectly matched the acupoints all over his body.

and.

It's obviously the first time I've seen it.

But for some reason, he felt an indescribable sense of familiarity at this moment.

"Is it... a mandrill?"

His thoughts were wandering, and in an instant, countless images emerged in the depths of his mind.

Just like a fleeting glimpse.

Finally, it stopped on the bronze box dug out from the belly of the giant monster in the strange cave at Zhalong Mountain.

If I remember correctly.

When the bronze box was opened, a total of four objects were taken out.

A blue toad, a Kunlun fetus sealed in a jade bottle, a pile of corrupted demon blood, and finally the remains of three mandrills.

The remains of the mandrill were eventually given to Yuan Hong by Chen Yulou.

Because they are of the same lineage.

After returning to Chenjiazhuang.

Because Partridge Whistle was busy with his cultivation and the matters concerning the Zhuchen Pearl and the Dragon Bone Book, he did not pay much attention to the follow-up.

now.

After more than half a year.

He finally understood.

The black-gold light in Yuan Hong's blood vessels was most likely the fusion of the remains of the mandrill.

Reborn!

Demonic methods!

Apart from Chen Yulou, he couldn't think of anyone else who could do this.

Besides this, what shocked him even more was that although Yuan Hong seemed calm, the aura emanating from his body was clearly that which could only be possessed by someone at the Foundation Establishment stage.

That is to say...

Yuan Hong has also established his foundation? !

You know, although it is a natural spirit and is very similar to humans, there are ultimately unbridgeable differences between the two and they have different bloodlines.

Man is the most intelligent creature in the world.

Practice and you will get twice the result with half the effort.

As for monsters, their lifespan is often hundreds of years.

Just like the six-winged centipede in Pingshan, it took six or seven hundred years to condense the magic pill.

The same is true for the old raccoon on the ancient raccoon monument.

Although his strength is average, he is an old monster that has practiced for nearly a hundred years. He has used his skin to wreak havoc on the village and has killed countless people.

But this does not seem to work for Yuan Hong.

He also started his practice from Pingshan.

However, in just over half a year, he had actually entered the stage of foundation building in the form of a demon.

This is really...

Unbelievable!

As if he had noticed his gaze, Yuan Hong, who was looking inward at the changes in his own muscles and bones, subconsciously raised his head. The two of them looked at each other, and he immediately understood.

But Yuan Hong did not show off.

Instead, he shook his head.

The meaning is self-evident.

Seeing this, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel more emotional.

Although Yuan Hong was born as a monkey, he took every step very steadily and calmly, without being arrogant or impatient. Even after reaching this level, he was not proud at all.

"Why aren't Brother Chen, Kunlun, and Brother Yang Fang here?"

He nodded secretly and looked around. Strangely, just because of his meditation, the clouds and mist beneath him became even more astonishing than before.

The sea of ​​clouds rolled.

Like the waves of a mighty river crashing against the shore.

Moreover, apart from them, there was no sign of Chen Yulou around.

"Could it be that he went to Yufeng?"

"Yes, what is Zulongding?!"

The old foreigner pointed to a place not far away.

At this moment, the cave was filled with clouds and mist, almost completely covering the Jade Mountain. Only a faint outline could be seen. As for the stone path connecting the two, it was completely submerged by the stone smoke.

"Zulongding."

Hear what he said.

Everyone turned around from the stone bridge.

but……

Only then did he turn his gaze over.

boom--

Suddenly.

There was a terrifying noise as if the earth was shaking.

The sea of ​​clouds also swelled accordingly.

It was as if the water under the clouds was boiling.

The crystal cave walls around were affected by the vibration, and countless cracks appeared. The isolated lake water also continued to seep out from the cracks, and the dripping speed became more and more alarming.

Look up.

The crystal cave was originally closed.

At this moment, it is like the legendary Water Curtain Cave.

The water fell like rain, into the clouds and mist, and soon disappeared.

This sudden change shocked everyone on the stone bridge.

"Oh no! This might not be an earthquake!"

"Could it be that we are breathing in too much spiritual energy and disrupting the balance of Zulong Peak?"

"Not really. Compared to the vast spiritual energy accumulated over tens of millions of years, the amount consumed in breaking through the realm is nothing at all."

"Could it be..."

Yuan Hong's pupils dilated slightly.

A deeply imprinted scene suddenly emerged in my mind.

Chenjiazhuang.

Guanyun Tower.

The golden elixir becomes a celestial phenomenon!

It was also a breakthrough that day.

However, the noise at this moment was several times more terrifying than that day.

Hearing the hidden meaning in its words, Partridge Whistle and the others looked at each other in surprise.

"Brother, look at the top of Jade Mountain, it's Kunlun and Yang Fang!"

Hua Ling had sharp eyes and suddenly pointed her finger into the depths of the sea of ​​clouds.

The group subconsciously looked over there.

I saw two black shadows appearing in the vast clouds at some point. Looking at their figures, one was tall and the other short, one was strong and the other was thin. One of them carried a halberd on his back while the other carried a whip. Who else could it be but Kunlun and Yang Fang?

Although they are dozens of meters apart at this moment.

They could all see an unconcealable shock on the two of them.

Especially Kunlun, who was always calm and would not change his expression even if a mountain collapsed in front of him. But now... his bear-like figure was as tense as a bow.

It clearly only occurs when one is extremely nervous.

"Don't tell me something's wrong..."

As the tremors grew stronger, the underground lake water on the top of Crystal Mountain began to pour in, like a floodgate had been opened, and the sound of water rumbled incessantly.

Partridge Whistle frowned and muttered softly.

"You wait here, I'll go take a look."

"I'll go as well."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hoarse voice came into his ears.

Partridge Whistle subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he turned around and saw that it was Yuan Hong, he had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, then Senior Yuan Hong..."

Boom——

Before he could finish his sentence.

Partridge Whistle seemed to have noticed something and turned around suddenly. Yuan Hong, who was standing beside him, did the same, and his amber eyes suddenly widened.

The two of them subconsciously looked towards Zulongding.

I saw an invisible force moving out of thin air, stirring up the clouds and mist in the sky.

A cave of sea of ​​clouds swirled upwards, and in almost the blink of an eye, it finally condensed into a pillar of cloud that reached the sky.

The bottom of the Crystal Mountain has been covered by stone smoke and fog for countless years.

Finally, its true appearance was revealed.

It was actually a lake.

And at the bottom of the water, there was a thick layer of bones.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt as if they were falling into an icy cave, but what shocked them more at this moment was the pillar of cloud that condensed out of thin air.

A figure in a long robe flew up from under the top of the Ancestral Dragon at some point and happened to be sitting cross-legged on the cloud pillar.

If not Chen Yulou, who else could it be?

just.

Different from the gentle and calm days of the past.

At this moment, his entire body was shrouded in golden light.

There were faint flashes of lightning and thunder.

The light and shadow were vague, and behind him was a shadow that looked like a god.

"The golden elixir is broken and the hidden scene is revealed, the Taoist image of Chonglou opens the cave to heaven!"

Chen Yulou slowly opened his eyes.

Look inward at the deep part of Dantian Qi sea.

The golden elixir has disappeared, and in its place, there is a small cave of its own.

It is also the fourth realm of cultivation!

Less than two years.

He started from collecting gas and finally reached this step.

At this moment, the dotted lines that were originally blurry and crisscrossed in the void around him have become increasingly clear. The dragon energy is flowing in the top of the Ancestral Dragon behind him, and the spiritual energy he is generating can be clearly seen.

Once you enter the cave, everything changes dramatically.

No wonder that saying has been passed down in Taoism since ancient times.

After swallowing a golden pill, my life is now in my own hands.

Chen Yulou finally understood today!
