Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 274

[Chapter 273: A Hundred Years’ Agreement (Subscription Request)]

A hint of hesitation flashed across Fang Xi’s face, but he still took the jade slip, and after carefully checking it several times, he entered his spiritual consciousness into it.

Soon, a hint of ecstasy appeared on his face, then it turned into confusion, and then his expression became extremely ugly.

“To advance to the Nascent Soul stage through the Art of Withering and Flourishing, there is actually such a requirement… This is really a big problem.”

After a long while, Fang Xi’s face was as red as a dye shop, and he sighed, “After practicing the ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ to the Golden Core Perfection, if you want to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, you actually have to practice the matching ‘Longevity Art’… and even practice to the level of ‘Yi Mu Dharma Body’ before you can successfully advance to the Nascent Soul stage, otherwise you will never be able to advance! This… this is simply…”

It turned out that in the jade slip, there was not only the “Art of Withering and Flourishing” which covered the skills from Qi Refining to the late Nascent Soul stage, but also a matching “Art of Immortality”.

Fang Xi had seen most of these contents before. After silently comparing them in his mind, he confirmed their authenticity.

In the last trick, Laogui even pointed out that if one wants to advance to the Nascent Soul stage through the ‘Withering and Flourishing Technique’, one must cultivate the ‘Yi Mu Dharma Body’!

“This ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ and ‘Longevity Art’ really complement each other. I accidentally stumbled upon the right path and avoided a lot of trouble…”

Fang Xi muttered to himself, looking at the old ghost with a bit of resentment in his eyes: “Are you kidding? According to your secret technique, in order to cultivate the ‘Yi Mu Dharma Body’, not only do you need at least fourth-level spiritual roots and fourth-level spiritual veins, you also need a thousand years of hard training… How is this possible? Haha, I wonder who else can cultivate this ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ Yuanying Chapter except for the cultivators who are born with the ‘Yi Mu Dharma Body’?”

“Don’t worry, fellow Daoist. Since our sect has inherited this skill, we naturally have a solution…”

The old ghost shook his head and said.

“How to solve it? The Qingmu Spiritual Body is fine. A Jindan cultivator can be determined and meet the requirements… but the gains do not outweigh the losses. Those who can achieve Jindan have good spiritual roots and qualifications, and the Qingmu Spiritual Body does not increase much… Yimu Dharma Body requires a thousand years, a thousand years… Unless I am a Yuanying old monster, how can I live for a thousand years?”

Fang Xi’s eyes were full of bloodshot: “At worst… I won’t practice this crappy technique anymore!”

“Fellow Daoist, fellow Daoist, don’t be anxious. Let me explain slowly…”

The old ghost was really afraid that Fang Xi would directly switch to practicing a new technique, which would result in nothing. “This ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ is not only extremely powerful, but the accompanying ‘Withering and Flourishing Mysterious Light’ is also extremely sharp… Can Daoist really be so cruel as to give it up?”

“What’s more… if you can cultivate Yimu Dharmakaya and then push the ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ to the perfection of Danjie, the combination of the two will be of great benefit to breaking through the bottleneck of Yuanying… Even in ancient times, condensing Yuanying was a natural barrier. How much do you think the secret technique that can increase the chance of condensing Yuanying is worth?”

“It’s good for condensing the Nascent Soul?” Fang Xi’s eyes flickered, and he seemed to be interested: “How much can it increase the probability?”

“Fellow Daoist, you have stumped me. Apart from the founder of our sect, there is no Nascent Soul cultivator. I don’t know the specific situation. However, although the founder of our sect has a natural wood spiritual root, he did not awaken his spiritual body. In the end, he relied on the “Withering and Flourishing Art” to cultivate a Nascent Soul, and recorded this matter in detail in the sect’s secret records… That’s why I know something.” The old ghost saw Fang Xi taking the bait and laughed in his heart: “Sure enough… Any Jindan cultivator cannot escape the temptation of condensing a Nascent Soul!”

“It seems that you are focusing on the secret technique that can promote the growth of spiritual roots? Daoist friend, do you have the Creation Spirit Liquid?”

Fang Xi suddenly turned his eyes and stared at the old ghost.

“The Creation Spiritual Liquid is a thing that is said to exist only in the Immortal Realm. How could I possibly have it?” The old ghost shook his head. “But the founder of our sect was rewarded with a bottle of ‘Nine Heavens Pure Water’ by the Green Emperor Mountain. This spiritual liquid is made by mixing the diluted Creation Spiritual Liquid with a series of natural treasures such as the Ten Thousand Years Spiritual Milk and the Three Lights Divine Water. It was finally refined by a Divine Transformation cultivator and has the miraculous effect of promoting the growth of spiritual roots! This ‘Nine Heavens Pure Water’, I don’t have it either, but it is found in that relic.”

“No wonder you only want a promise from me, without even asking me to swear.” Fang Xi understood: “With such a great opportunity, I will beg you to take me there!”

“Yes, if it weren’t for a certain pass in the ruins, it would require someone who has practiced the ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ to the late stage of Jindan to pass through. Why would I bother to win you over?”

The old ghost subconsciously wanted to stroke his beard, but he only felt a mist.

“It seems that you possessed this person with a plan.”

Fang Xi looked at the display map and suddenly understood.

Zhan Tu has the dual spiritual roots of fire and wood, so in theory he can also practice the “Withering and Flourishing Technique”!
“Humph… When the ruins were opened, I had just come out of the seal and almost died. I couldn’t find anything better, so I had to make do with it… It’s a pity that this person’s spiritual roots are too poor, and fire overcomes wood. If he wants to practice wood-related skills, it’s best to use the “Secret Technique of Reversing Fire” to nourish wood with fire…”

The old ghost talked incessantly, as if he was a chatterbox. Perhaps it was because he had been sealed for too long and had not communicated with outsiders for a long time.

“What is the ‘Secret Art of Backfire’?” Fang Xi asked with great interest.

“Hehe, the world is ignorant, they only know to let this kid Zhan practice fire-based exercises… but they don’t know that he can also practice wood-based exercises. This ‘Secret Art of Reversing Fire’ is a secret of my Nine Leaves Sect. As long as you practice it, you can transform the fire-attributed spiritual energy absorbed during practice into three transformations, from fire to earth, from earth to gold, and from gold to water… and finally you can use water to nourish wood. In this way… this person’s cultivation speed will be faster than that of ordinary high-grade spiritual roots.”

The old ghost talked incessantly.

Fang Xi listened and shook his head: “Except for the sects that specialize in wood-attributed techniques, there are not many that would study this… Disciples with fire-attributed spiritual roots can directly practice fire-attributed techniques…”

“You are ignorant, youngster… Do you know that some ancient great magical skills have requirements for the skills and even the attributes of the spiritual roots? These secret skills are prepared for this purpose.”

The old ghost rebuked him, but he seemed to realize that he had said something wrong: “You have asked me too many questions, but you haven’t answered me yet…”

“Shall we go to a certain ruin together and retrieve something?”

Fang Xi smiled and said, “I don’t know when and what I’m going to get.”

“It will take time for you to cultivate the ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ to the late stage of the Jindan stage. It will take even longer for this boy to form a Jindan… I am not sure, but it will take at least a hundred years, right? After a hundred years, we can reunite here and study it further… As for what we have obtained, I will tell you then!”

For Lao Gui, he only paid for a later stage “uncultivable” skill and got a helping hand, which was naturally not a loss.

Fang Xi’s face darkened: “A hundred years later? By then, if I have practiced the ‘Withering and Flourishing Art’ for a hundred years, I’m afraid I won’t be willing to change it, right?”

“Haha, it’s good for you to know. If there is nothing else, I will leave…If I leave for too long, that Zhang Patriarch will get suspicious.”

The mist on the old ghost’s face quickly dissipated and he closed his eyes.

Zhan Tu opened his eyes, still a little confused, and bowed to Fang Xi.

“Forget it, you can leave now.”

Fang Xi stared at the display for a long time, but finally waved his hand.

Zhan Tu felt relieved, bowed again, and left.

Only after he walked out of Changqing Pavilion did he touch his Dantian, and in his heart he excitedly said, “Old ghost… you are really amazing. With just a few words, you fooled a Jindan ancestor…”

“Haha… As long as this person practices the ‘Art of Withering and Flourishing’, he will never escape from the grasp of this old ancestor.” The old ghost’s voice sounded with a hint of pride.

The top of the attic.

Fang Xi stood by the window and watched them leave.

In his heart, he was still sighing: “What a good person! He actually gave me the technique for free… In this way, it won’t be a problem for me to practice the ‘Withering and Flourishing Technique’ to the late Nascent Soul stage.”

What Yimu Dharmakaya?
He has already mastered it!

“As for the transformation into a spirit? Does it mean that one needs to have the physique of the ‘Eternal Evergreen Body’?”

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

“But, this is not impossible for me…”

“I didn’t expect that the Nine Leaves Sect had such a background and roots. It seems that I must go to Emerald Island to explore it when I have some free time in the future…”

Since even the fake Zhang Zhusheng could escape from this dangerous place, Fang Xi is not that afraid now.

As for the Hundred Years Agreement? Of course, it depends on your cultivation and mood at that time before deciding whether to participate…

…

Half a month later.

Fang Xi’s Golden Elixir Ceremony began grandly.

As the news of his elixir formation spread, the entire Wandao Lake, no, the entire Yue Kingdom and even the Three Kingdoms were in an instant of excitement.

After all, the last independent cultivator to achieve the Jindan stage was Master Baifeng!
After this day, Fang Xi would definitely replace Master Baifeng and become the goal and idol of countless independent cultivators.

As for the Danjie Celebration?

Fang Xi originally didn’t want to have a big party, but since Zhang Zhusheng was already here, he had no choice but to do it. However, he also asked that everything be kept simple and that people he knew be invited to come over for a drink as a token of his appreciation.

Dragon Fish Island was extremely lively on this day.

In the Changqing Pavilion, rays of light flew in and out, they were all busy maids and great monks.

Fang Xi was wearing a green bamboo robe and sitting in the main seat, entertaining the distinguished guest Zhang Zhusheng.

The Jindan ancestor gave a slight gesture, and Xuanxuanzi handed over the gift box. After opening it, he saw five high-grade spirit stones inside: “Xuantian Sect congratulates Daoyou on your Jindan!”

“Thank you very much!”

Fang Xi clasped his fists in thanks.

Patriarch Zhang asked with a smile, “I wonder if you have taken a Taoist name?”

The Jindan Patriarch is worthy of a Taoist title in the world of immortal cultivation.

“Not yet…”

Fang Xi replied with a smile.

“I see that you like to travel on dragons, so why not call yourself ‘Master Qinglong’? Or you can use ‘Dragon Fish’ as your nickname, which is also very good.” Patriarch Zhang suggested with a smile, very attentive.

Being able to take a road number also means that the two parties have a close relationship.

Fang Xi thought about it, but shook his head: “Let me think about it again…”

Although True Man Qinglong sounds very majestic, what he rides is actually a fish!

By then, he will most likely be secretly called “Green Fish Master”, which will greatly reduce his status!

“Damn Daqing, he has not even been promoted to the third-level dragon species, but he is already on his way to death!”

A fierce light flashed in Fang Xi’s eyes.

In the fish farm, the big bluefin bream that was originally lazily floating on the lake suddenly had its scales stand up for some reason, and its dead fish eyes looked around in horror…
