To Cultivate Immortality, You Need Luck

It's late at night.

In order not to affect the rest of the guests in the house, the spiritual oil lanterns hanging high in the house were adjusted to a soft brightness by the maid in the house.

Kong Jiao opened the door of the courtyard where he stayed and walked into the courtyard following the dim light.

In the center of the courtyard, Xian Yu Yanhe's Lian Puppet was still standing next to the ice and snow barrier, not leaving even an inch.

Within the barrier, Dapeng showed no signs of recovery.

Kong Jiao walked to the barrier and took a look inside. Green Egg was still lying quietly on the spot, with a glistening green light flashing from time to time.

Kong Jiao didn't expect Dapeng to wake up so quickly. After all, he had been in seclusion for almost half a year after absorbing Yuehua Yinshuang.

No matter how well the phoenix blood in Dapeng's body matches the green flame fire lotus, it still takes three to five months.

"That's fine. Staying in this egg will save it from getting into trouble all day long."

Kong Jiao just glanced at it, then turned and entered the house.

As he stepped forward into the bedroom where he was staying.

Buzz!

The invisible energy barrier immediately spread out from the house, until the entire courtyard was isolated, and then the speed of expansion was stopped.

That is the protective barrier that Kong Jiao condenses with his cultivation.

Although it is not a formation, with Kong Jiao's current Taiguang peak cultivation level and Earth Rank Dao Foundation, it is still difficult for ordinary Taiguang monks to break through that barrier.

After doing this, Kong Jiao also sat down cross-legged on the bed in the bedroom.

There was a golden light of consciousness flickering between his eyebrows, as if he was mobilizing the power of his consciousness.

Following the golden light, a completely black alchemy furnace shaped like a black turtle was placed on the ground next to the bed.

It is the Black Tortoise stove.

It was affected by the black turtle sealed in it, and as soon as it was exposed to the air, water-based power overflowed and dispersed in the air, making this space a lot moister.

Kong Jiao was already used to this. When the Black Tortoise furnace appeared, his eyes were fixed on the lid of the alchemy furnace.

As the black black water surged, a black turtle the size of a fist crawled on top of the furnace lid.

When Kong Jiao saw it, the latter also stared at Kong Jiao with a pair of green eyes.

"Grandson Turtle! If you dare to let your Grandpa Turtle come out, I will eat you alive!"

The old ghost's violent voice suddenly rang in Kong Jiao's ears.

As it spoke, it moved its limbs frantically, trying to get rid of the shackles of the stove lid and rush towards Kong Jiao.

Seeing this scene, Kong Jiao didn't make any move, he just watched the old turtle's movements with a smile.

He was sure that it was impossible for the old turtle to escape from the shackles of the Black Tortoise furnace.

Not to mention attacking Kong Jiao, who is already the owner of this Black Tortoise furnace.

This was indeed the case. The old ghost struggled for a long time, mobilizing various water-based powers to try to attack Kong Jiao.

All were offset by an invisible barrier.

The Black Tortoise furnace devoured this old bastard to death.

After Lao Gui made a fuss for half a stick of incense, he realized that it was impossible for him to hurt Kong Jiao. Instead, his actions would only make him embarrassed.

He could only accept this fact unwillingly, lie down on the alchemy furnace, and roar to the sky with an angry look on his face: "It's unfair! Let me, Xuan Heng, suffer this disaster."

"So your name is Xuan Heng." Kong Jiao narrowed his eyes. This was the first time he heard the old turtle say his name.

"Grandson Turtle, you can also call your grandfather Xuan Heng by his name."

"Don't think that you can do whatever you want after refining this broken furnace. Grandpa Turtle will come out sooner or later to spread your ashes."

The old turtle has been trapped in the Black Tortoise furnace for who knows how many years, and he doesn't even know who his enemy is.

Now I hate Kong Jiao directly, vowing to raise his ashes.

This is not the first time that Kong Jiao has come into contact with Xuan Heng. It is already common for him to threaten him in various ways.

Anyway, he knew that this old turtle would never be able to get rid of the Black Tortoise furnace.

"If my guess is correct, it has been refined into the 'spirit' of this Black Tortoise furnace"

Kong Jiao looked at Old Turtle with sympathy in his eyes.

Lei Zun once said that ancient practitioners had a spirit refining method that could infuse spirit into important spirit-injecting weapons.

Obviously, this old turtle became a victim of this spiritual-infused weapon and became the 'spirit' in it. It has become inseparable from the Black Tortoise furnace.

I'm afraid it will be difficult to get rid of forever.

"The person who made this Black Tortoise is really a ruthless person." Kong Jiao shook his head, and he sympathized mostly with the old turtle.

If he were to change places and be refined into a spirit-infused weapon, he would probably be even more irritable than this old turtle.

So Kong Jiao still let him scold him. After scolding him for a long time, the old turtle ran out of words and simply stopped talking.

A pair of green bean-sized eyes just looked at Kong Jiao viciously.

"Senior Xuanheng, are you happy with the scolding?" Kong Jiao looked at him with a smile on his face and politely called him "senior".

"If you haven't scolded me enough, I can accompany you to scold you for a while."

Of course Kong Jiao is not here to be scolded tonight.

The reason for such false flattery naturally has its purpose.

This old bastard doesn't know what his current level of cultivation is, but his age is definitely not low.

He must know many secrets of the world of cultivation.

Regarding the clues about the Five Elements Mountain and the day when the moon appears and the sun shines, Kong Jiao is ready to tell stories from it.

That's Kong Jiao's goal tonight.

Let him calm down after scolding him, and you can have a good chat with him.

"Huh!" Xuan Turtle just sneered when he heard this, his green turtle eyes full of sarcasm.

"Don't think that Mr. Turtle doesn't know your plans. If you show your courtesy for nothing, you will definitely ask for something."

"Master Gui, let me tell you, you can't get a word out of Master Gui today."

The old turtle's reaction made Kong Jiao look at him a little higher and said secretly: "This turtle is also very cunning and can see through my plan at a glance."

Kong Jiao was not upset when the matter was exposed. He spread his hands and said helplessly: "Senior Xuan Heng's hatred towards this junior is so unreasonable."

"Junior has indeed refined this pill furnace, but even if I don't refine it, you won't be able to get out."

"Grandpa Turtle can't come out, and you can't refine it either. How can I, the majestic Beishui Black Turtle, let a shameless kid like you treat me like an object and refine it." The old turtle blew his beard and glared again.

"And the refining method of this alchemy furnace is obviously done by your human monks."

"Who knows what relationship you have with the person who harmed me behind the scenes? You might be his descendant."

"That's it!" After hearing this, Kong Jiao finally realized the origin of this old turtle's hatred for him.

Presumably, he was the first person it saw when it woke up.

There is every reason to doubt his identity.

As long as you know what this old turtle is thinking, it will be easy to handle.

Kong Jiao's expression suddenly became solemn, he pointed to the sky and said loudly: "I, Kong Jiao, have dedicated my life to cultivation and hereby make an oath of heaven. If I have any blood connection with the person behind the murder of Senior Xuan Heng. Or maybe If my master's Ashen Parasol Sect has any relationship with his inheritance, he will be punished by heaven and will never be reincarnated."

"Heaven and earth bear witness to this oath, and any violation will be verified!"

The sound was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the small space of the bedroom.

After finishing speaking, Kong Jiao looked straight at Old Turtle with his eyes, full of sincerity.

"Senior Xuanheng, are you satisfied?"

In fact, Kong Jiao also had a careful thought in the oath of heaven he made.

It only talks about the Ashen Parasol Sect and not the Guanghan Temple.

In fact, he felt guilty. What if, one in a million, some elder from Guanghan Palace tricked this old turtle, that would be fun.

The oath of heaven is not something to be said casually, especially with Kong Jiao's current cultivation level, there is a cause and effect.

Otherwise, Xiao Yuanshan of Dingyue Sect would not have let Han Donger and Ge Xia wander away into the endless sea, just because they were bound by the oath of heaven and earth.

This kind of oath is extremely binding on monks.

The higher your cultivation level, the less you can swear at will.

Kong Jiao tried his best to gain the old turtle's trust.

Sure enough, as Kong Jiao finished speaking, the hatred in Lao Gui's eyes when he looked at Kong Jiao dissipated a lot.

However, it still refused to give in, showing a little ridicule: "So what!"

"Even if you have no contact with the turtle grandson who killed me, Grandpa Turtle will still have to rely on you?"

"Hmph, with your level of cultivation, you are not qualified to talk to Grandpa Turtle."

"This old bastard!" Kong Jiao's face twitched, and he was very angry at this old turtle.

"No wonder the ruthless man in charge of the alchemy furnace chose it to attack. Its virtues offended countless people during its lifetime."

Kong Jiao was furious, but his face was indifferent.

Seeing that he was so weak, he simply stopped pretending and sighed with pretense of regret: "In that case, there is nothing left to talk about."

"I can only give Senior Xuan Heng to my sect, and the master of the sect will decide the fate of my senior. After all, my junior's cultivation level is still high, so I can't get into my senior's eyes."

Lao Gui's face was full of sarcasm before, but after hearing Kong Jiao's words, he immediately stiffened.

It can still speak somewhat in Kong Jiao's hands, and there is a glimmer of hope of escape.

If he really throws this to the elders of the sect, he may have to be bound in this Black Tortoise furnace for the rest of his life.

He quickly shouted: "Wait a minute!"

"Why is that kid so impatient? Grandpa Turtle is not a stubborn monster. It was just an unintentional remark..."

The old turtle finally let go of his arrogance and tried his best to put a smile on his face, which was uglier than crying.

"Tell me, if you have anything to do with Grandpa Turtle, tell me first and Grandpa Turtle will think about it."

"Good guy, he is a tough guy and not soft-hearted." Kong Jiao sneered, roughly understanding Xuan Heng's nature.

Immediately cheer up and tell the question about the Five Elements Mountain and the day when the moon appears and the sun appears.

"Five Elements Mountain?" Lao Gui narrowed his eyes and looked Kong Jiao up and down. He didn't say whether he knew about Five Elements Mountain. Instead, he asked, "Why do you ask this?"

"This junior found records about Five Elements Mountain and the day when the moon appears and the sun shines in an ancestor's Cave Mansion. I asked the elders around and found nothing. I just thought of you, a knowledgeable senior, and asked out of curiosity." General Kong Jiao had already asked. The prepared words were thrown out.

Sure enough, Lao Gui was not suspicious of Kong Jiao's statement.

Come to think of it, in its time, Five Elements Mountain seemed to be no secret.

He immediately sneered and replied: "Don't ask, you can't go to that place, and you will die if you go!"

Kong Jiao didn't care about Xuan Heng's warning, but his eyes lit up: "This old guy really knows."

"Of course I won't go, I'm just asking." Kong Jiao said confidently.

He really doesn't plan to go there for the time being. Just like Gu Jiang, he is sorting out the clues and saving them for future use.

Lao Gui didn't know whether he believed Kong Jiao's words or not. He looked at the latter's face in silence for a long time, and then said something meaningful.

"In our Monster Race, any information must be exchanged for a price."

"Grandpa Turtle knows about the Five Elements Mountain, and he also knows about the appearance of the moon and the sun, but I can't tell you in vain."

"What do you give in exchange?"

"I can refine some elixirs for Senior Xuan Heng to satisfy your craving." Kong Jiao was already prepared. With a wave of his hand, he took out a few bottles of refined Ten Thousand Beasts elixirs.

This elixir no longer has any value in improving the strength of the old turtle.

But Kong Jiao remembered that the formula for activating the Black Tortoise furnace once said that black turtles are greedy and have no resistance to elixirs.

This Ten Thousand Beast Pill is also attractive to Monster, and it is regarded as a supreme delicacy.

Sure enough, the old turtle's eyes brightened up after seeing the Ten Thousand Beast Pill.

However, it was quickly covered up, thinking that Kong Jiao would not see it.

But when Kong Jiao was talking to the old turtle, he carefully observed every expression of it and gained insight into every detail.

He secretly said happily: "As expected, this old bastard is greedy."

"Ahem, your elixir is just that, Second Grade quality, and it's just a snack to Grandpa Turtle."

"It's still a little short of getting information on Five Elements Mountain."

Old Turtle didn't know what he was holding back. He suppressed his appetite and moved his eyes away from the pill in Kong Jiao's hand. He shook his head and said, "For Grandpa Turtle, the most important thing now is to leave this broken stove. If you can help me get out, I can answer you anything and tell you everything I know."

"Ha! The lion opened his mouth." Kong Jiao was very happy at the old turtle.

Let this old turtle out. This Black Tortoise furnace has no "spirit", can it still be called a powerful spiritual weapon?

Not to mention whether its intelligence is worth paying attention to the value of the spiritual weapon.

The important soul-injecting weapon is the Law Treasure, which can be destroyed casually by him as a chakra-ascending monk?

Even if Kong Jiao wanted to help him escape, he was helpless.

"Since Mr. Turtle doesn't want to talk, I won't disturb you."

"If I spend more time, I can ask for information related to Five Elements Mountain. After all, that place is so famous."

Kong Jiao simply put away the Ten Thousand Beast Pills and then pressed his fingers between his eyebrows.

Pretending to take back the Black Tortoise furnace.

"I can only use you to honor my ancestor. He told me if he couldn't tell."

"Slow down!" the old bastard shouted again, his green eyes showing human kindness.

"Grandpa Gui knows about Five Elements Mountain, but in addition to this elixir, you have to make a promise to Grandpa Gui. You cannot hand Grandpa Gui over to your sect."

"Deal!" The teacher Kong Jiao had been talking about was all deception, and he agreed without any hesitation.

"You swear!" Xuan Heng glanced at Kong Jiao secretly, as if he didn't believe the latter's promise.

Kong Jiao's face suddenly darkened: "Since the seniors can't trust the juniors, there's nothing left to talk about."

How can the oath of heaven be justified? Moreover, Kong Jiao is sure that Xuan Heng will definitely agree to him.

Sure enough, the old turtle yelled again: "Slow down!"

"Pay the deposit first!" Lao Gui stared straight at Kong Jiao, his attitude was particularly firm this time.

Without thinking, Kong Jiao casually threw two Ten Thousand Beast Pills towards the Black Tortoise furnace.

The palm-sized old turtle opened its mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Kaka! The two Ten Thousand Beast Pills were chewed up in the old turtle's mouth like beans.

The old turtle showed an expression of enjoyment. During the chewing process, saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth to the stove lid.

"This guy is really greedy!" Kong Jiao saw this scene with a smile in his eyes.

He was very happy to see this scene.

The Ten Thousand Beast Pills are not difficult to refine among the Second Grade pills, and the yield is very high. One furnace can produce seven or eight pills.

Since I am an alchemist, I can have as much as I want.

After all, this is what Dapeng eats.

This old turtle is so greedy. If Kong Jiao uses the elixir as a bargaining chip in the future, he will definitely be able to ask for a lot of useful information.

When Kong Jiao was silently making calculations in his heart.

The two Ten Thousand Beast Pills had been swallowed by the old turtle, and there was still a lingering expression on his face as he muttered: "This pill is simply tailor-made for the taste of Monster Race. It is crispy in the mouth and has endless aftertaste. It has been a long time." It’s such a delicious meal.”

Let's talk. Lao Gui cheered up and began to reveal the news about Five Elements Mountain as promised.

"Five Elements Mountain, also called Five Elements Heaven, is a Grotto-Heaven. It gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and is the only Grotto-Heaven in the Xianyun Realm."

"The largest Spirit Vein in the Xianyun Realm comes from the Five Elements Heaven."

"Without the Five Elements Heaven, this ingenuity of the Xianyun Realm would probably not even be able to form the essence of the Xuanpin Heaven and Earth."

"The Xianyun Realm mentioned by the seniors is the name of our world?" Kong Jiao has long heard that beyond Yunmo, Gujiang, Wudong, Tianqi, and even the Endless Sea and the Great Wilderness, there is a wider area. world.

"Asking knowingly!" Old Turtle glared at Kong Jiao, seeming angry that he interrupted him.

Kong Jiao heard Xianyunjie's statement for the first time. He was not angry even after being scolded by Lao Gui. Instead, he cheered up and continued to ask: "Besides Xianyunjie, how many areas in this cultivation world are there like Xianyunjie?"

Old Turtle could see that this young man really didn't know, so he could only say impatiently: "Do you know how many stars there are in the sky?"

"I don't know!" Kong Jiao shook his head honestly.

"Grandpa Turtle doesn't know how many worlds there are like Xianyun Realm." The old turtle looked serious.

"Chaos first opened, and a tree stood up from the sky, dividing the gap between heaven and earth."

"The endless stars are the fruit of the tree that reaches the sky."

"One fruit, one world! The stars are so vast that they cannot be counted in detail. Our ancestors defined the number as one hundred and eight thousand."

After just a few words, the sparkle in Kong Jiao's eyes sparkled.

I just felt a vast picture unfolding before my eyes.

The ancient trees separate the world from heaven and earth, and each fruit represents the world.

The Xianyun Realm where he is located is actually just a drop in the ocean in an endless world.

"How big is this world?"

Kong Jiao was mumbling to himself, at this moment, it seemed that Gujiang, Xihuang Paradise, and Guanghan Palace were no longer important.

"We monks should roam the world freely!"

Kong Jiao felt heroic in his heart.

Since God allowed me to live this life in this world where I can cultivate immortality and ask questions.

It would be too cowardly not to see what this world has to offer. (End of chapter)
